The 2024 American League Division Series between the Yankees and the Royals has been pretty exciting thus far, but baseball fans haven’t loved everything about the best-of-five set.
Bob Costas, who’s handling play-by-play duties for TBS, drew horrendous reviews from viewers through the first three contests between New York and Kansas City. The virtual tomato throwing resumed Wednesday night when Costas failed to meet the moment in the Bronx Bombers’ dramatic 3-2 win at Kauffman Stadium.
The forgettable performance in the broadcast booth, which included a completely muffed call on an eighth-inning lineout, ignited an avalanche of social media posts.
