Mets Broadcast Botches a Frightening Jared Young Moment

A frightening collision leaves Jared Young motionless on the field, but the Fox broadcast quickly becomes part of the story. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber question the decision to discuss Young’s future with the Mets while he was still being treated, arguing that the timing of Ken Rosenthal’s report felt completely wrong even after Young gave a thumbs-up.

The conversation then takes a sharp turn when a caller rips Evan for praising “O Canada.” Evan doubles down, insisting that liking another country’s anthem does not make him unpatriotic and declaring once again that “America the Beautiful” is simply a better song than “The Star-Spangled Banner.”
