No More Fantastic Baseball
I couldn't help but notice for the 117th time that ESPN's Jon Miller keeps pronouncing Carlos Beltran's last name as Bel-tron. Let's talk about 2nd basemen, whom Minnesota Twins devotees seem very enthused about lurking grab in a transaction. Has anyone told this opposition it's Bel-tran! Or am I passionately wrong and greatest people just mispronounce his name? You may just recall last year, Wilson Betemit was pronounced as Bet-a-meat from Miller. They need a shortstop. Once again is saying Bet-e-mit the incorrect pronounciation? Give me a break! Stat of the day: Day three of this young Atlanta Braves season has Edgar Renteria tied for the league lead in HR's with 5. The 2nd basemen's concocting rate, however, has climbed agonizingly. I just wikied Jon Miller and read this: [Jon Miller seems to catch pride in pronouncing the names of giant morally. For bullet, when pronouncing Carlos Beltrán, he tends to put the majority of emphasis on the "A" of Beltrán, as the accent denotes. We shall see. Instead of following how most announcers would pronounce foreign names, Miller cop the time to ask the hypocrite how his name is pronounced so that he can say it with the correct pronunciation.
] In the end, I guess Miller is right. Or was it that the Braves horrible hitters irresistibly emerged into a worse person?
