Sarah Langs commentary
-
I actually thought they messed up the speech themselves, i had no idea.
-
I won't quote any particular comment above, but just wish to respond in general: she has a terminal disease and speech issues are just a part of her limited time left with us. Perhaps it's best to consider that she has more wisdom and knowledge to share with us than her considerable obstacles demand from us in return.
-
Like @cbpm72_PSN pointed out. She has ALS. That’s what she sounds like now.

@BxnnyMxn_
I was going to say the exact same thing (except I usually boost it to 2x). She is too smart and has too many interesting facts and insights to just jump past her segments. But it's getting to the point that it's heartbreaking to hear her struggle more and more as time goes on.
I bet being part of MLBTS24 is a dream come true for Sarah, and she deserves it. But this is just one more reason that I'm glad I'm not on Twitter. I have a feeling there are some buffoons on there who are making buffoons of themselves.

It's terrible. I have no idea who she is or her story, but I'm willing to believe she's a hardcore baseball goddess we could all learn from. That being said, a broadcaster has to have at least a decent voice -- it's a prereq for the job! SDS should have found a way to integrate her into the game in a way that didn't set her up for failure. Baseball fans do read, you know...

I posted a link to her story in this thread if you’d like to read it. It’s truly remarkable and she’s an asset that we probably won’t have with us for much longer sadly

Amen my friend. She’s probably knows more about baseball than everyone in this forum combined. It’s a shame they didn’t add female players to the game when she could still play it.

Cool, I will check it out. Thx. I feel bad but I'll be muting commentary in RTTS if and when I play more.

It's amazing how they chop up all the announcers lines into three second sound bites but the one person it would make sense to do that for, they let talk uninterrupted for minutes.
Yall complain about graphics being PS3 era when their commentary department is stuck in the PS1 era. Also, could they not add captions to aid us understand her better. Sarah knows her stuff though, good on her
-
It’s unfair to her that she’s now going to be associated with “the voice I have to skip because listening to her makes me want to break my playstation”
SDS really f-ed this up
-
Baseball is the Best. That's her motto. She absolutely loves this game and probably has forgotten more baseball knowledge than most of us know. She deserves better than all the negative talk she is getting online by people that don't know the story.

She does. But that's SDS's bad, not ours. All the "negative talk" has actually been quite respectful as well.
You know, SDS could have had her write a strategy manual for the game we could access in-menu, complete with photos of her, etc.
As someone else said, they f--ed up.
-
Without knowing her story, I sat there wondering why she was speaking the way she was speaking... it was jarring without knowing the potential cause of it.
-
Did we really expect anything less from them? This is the company who forced a female into a male league. Just to prove their wokeness. They could careless what gamers want or think.
With that said, For me personally, this is the least annoying thing about the game. She really knows her stuff when it comes to baseball. Yes, her audio can be distracting. But frankly she's better than the broadcast team. They are so dull and boring
-
I’m sorry what were they thinking.. I don’t like anyone yammering during a “skills” portion that’s going to dictate your draft position, let alone someone with speech issues talking nonstop about useless information. Usually players don’t have commentators being fed into their ears during a combine so why do I have to? Include a commentator volume setting next time.
-
@collintacoz09 it's really not that big of deal.
-
It's a distraction.
-
@WereWolf420Tx 100% this. A big win for inclusion.
-
I'm starting to lose my hearing. The upper ranges are where it's starting for me, which is where most female and young kid's voices are. Every time she speaks I can't understand anything.
