 On August 19th, 2020, at around 8:32 p.m., inside Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, right fielder Nicholas Castellanos of the Cincinnati Reds is facing an 0-1 count against Kansas City Royals pitcher Greg Holland. Holland sends a pitch inside, and Castellanos blasts a shot to deep left field for his ninth home run of the season, giving the Reds a 4-0 lead. Nobody watching the broadcast on Fox Sports Ohio cared. All they were paying attention to was longtime Reds’ commentator Thom Brennaman.
