Live-blogging the ALCS

Since my self-appointed gig is to complain about things, here goes:

• TBS has technical difficulties and runs a sitcom instead of the first inning of the ALCS! Minor league...
  
• A fifteen-minute game delay to change umpires? You have got to be kidding me.
• Who's directing this broadcast? It's a slow enough game without lingering shots of grass and sudden zooms to get into position for a pitch.
• Why does Buck Martínez mispronounce Big Papi's name Órtiz, when it is Ortíz?
• Ron Darling sounds like James Woods (not a complaint, actually, just an observation).

Oh, and Jason Varitek just found a home run in his back pocket from the left side.
