Odd pentakill call when it was only a triple, but this whole day has been exciting Riv casts

Inside the park penta was the call. He got the double kill just before. Like inside the park home run.

Kinda hard for non-NA, non-Japan audiences to understand baseball references is the thing.

And that's something that happens in casting. We cant gate our calls off of everything people may or may not know.

Im sure hardly anyone got the "how many licks does it take to kill a champion" by flowers. That's a tootsie lolipop reference. \o/

The difference is that while both calls might sound weird for people without prior knowledge, only one sounds wrong.

I personally got the inside the park reference, because baseball is my third favorite sport to watch, but I can certainly empathize with people finding it obscure.

Anyway, you do have to realize that we're nitpicking this one particular thing because your casting was overwhelmingly good this week as a whole. Sort of a combination between the actor-observer fallacy and survivorship bias (to use obscure references of my own XD).

For sure, please dont take this as well x is x and it's ok by those standards. Sorry about that. I was more so saying it's not something that we commonly have time to think of on the fly. Thanks for the comments also, casting felt great this week. Also enjoying throwin down with Kobe.
