If you ever wanted to hear the "Awkward Broadcasting Moment", then take a listen to what the MLB Network's Matt Versgersian said during last night's wrap up show.
The incident, an injury to Colorado Rockies baserunner Brad Hawpe happened on a pickoff play. Hawpe was hit in the neck and after having his head immobilized, was removed from the field. Up to that point, the commentary was pointed and spot on. But than Versgersian felt the need to "go back to the video". He makes a really poor comment about the EMT on the scene looking like "Donovan McNabb". If you listen closely after that, you may hear crickets.
Needless to say, poor judgement + poor taste equals really bad television. 'Nuff said.
