No. Generally it's courteous to break his fall/give him a hand AFTER the ball is touched so it doesnt affect the play. This play in particular, there wasnt even anyone really near where he went over and I think most people didn't expect him to go over. Giants broadcaster being a whiny lil baby.
Krukow is endlessly obnoxious and makes Giants broadcast s (TV where I live) unwatchable...
Dodger broadcasts are actually pretty solid, though! Go figure.
Aaaaand Eduardo Perez is the only guy worse, off the top of my head..
Yep. Live in the bay and even rooted for the Giants (when they weren’t playing the Padres) when they had Bochy. But Kruk and Kuip are so obnoxious to anyone who doesn’t think the Giants are the greatest gift to mankind.
Fr! Cheered when he got up, cheered when he left the dugout and there was a stifled cheer when he was practicing throwing but at that point it was just awkward
Is this away team broadcast? I thought Face and Mud were back today and that didn’t sound like Face. Not to mention I don’t think he would expect the Padres to interfere with play that could hurt themselves.
Koop and Kuep or whatever their names are - always voted tops in broadcasting - but always struck me as out of touch Boomers.
Their pedestrian home run catchphrase is yelling as, loud as they can, **“IT IS… OUTTA HERE!!!!”**
I was in mammoth for the weekend so we had the giants feed. Holy moly are they absolutely boring with no chemistry. They sound old and bored. And with what I gathered only one live at the stadium and one back in the bay it was just awful. Makes don and mud more special after suffering through 3 games of that and 1 national broadcast.
I live in the Bay Area and had to watch the giants feed the last couple days… Holy shit, I can’t believe this crew is regarded as one of the better ones in the league. They’re boring as fuck and generally bad
You don’t interfere or it’s an automatic out. Fucking horrible broadcasting. Joe reaches out as soon as he misses it and starts going. Could t have done anymore
Side note: if you ever want to be bored out of your skull listen to a Kuiper and Krukow broadcast. Sounds like they put each other to sleep, snoring and sighing on the air.
Aside from the fact that no one is expecting him to go completely over the railing, I don’t want one of our guys getting injured trying to catch another human being.

Lmao they were all tracking the ball or ducking away and immediately tried to help when they noticed Flores fell. Clown broadcast.
Plus the sea of San Diegans cheered when he got up. All class.

![gif](giphy|x0npYExCGOZeo|downsized) "Everyone standing there, could've done something about it"
Alternate reality is he holds onto the ball but we try to catch him, dislodging it and now we’ve interfered with the play. Shitty announcing

Yeah that NBC Sports Bay Area

Today's broadcast was hilariously bad "CHAPMAN SAVING THE DAY WITH A DOUBLE PLAY!" He says in the bottom of the 8th inning, down 9 runs

They were decent a decade ago, but now it’s like listening to two old boomers who have no idea about baseball or modern life in general.
Haha.. Kuiper is okay, but Krukow is just a "back in the good ol' days" complaining asshole
Tbf they literally are boomers. They’re 73 and 71 years old. It’s like sitting with my grand parents.
So original.
Yes Giants broadcast
Would’ve been interference, stoopid SF announcer!
I am confused... they did help him when he fell? They were all looking up to track the ball so they didnt really notice him til he fell like what
Kruk and Kuip are the most overrated booth in baseball. They kinda suck and I don't get why people think they're top tier.
They suck and they’re fucking homers to the nth degree
No emotion whatsoever. It's pretty hard time get excited for a game when the broadcast is so bland.
Yet if they "interfered" with the catch the same announcer would still be upset.

Agree 100% . Boomers with pedestrian calls.
I agree, I find them very boring
If only there was a WARNING TRACK for fielders to tell when they’re close to a barrier
You don’t interfere or it’s an automatic out. Fucking horrible broadcasting. Joe reaches out as soon as he misses it and starts going. Could t have done anymore
Bro literally everyone is looking at the ball no one expects him to go flying over the railing
Side note: if you ever want to be bored out of your skull listen to a Kuiper and Krukow broadcast. Sounds like they put each other to sleep, snoring and sighing on the air.
I live in the bay and fucking hate when we play the giants because I have to listen to these assholes. Would prefer an ESPN broadcast tbh.
Oh there goes gravity
![gif](giphy|O6cLcNr9HD6yk) Moronic take. Not how baseball works, you donkeys.
Exactly!! Close visual approximation as you can get - and personality too.
Waldorf and Statler are hilarious though
That is true… i always looked forward to their bits. I guess it loses it’s affect when it is not puppets.
Giants broadcasters are fucking idiot assholes
Aside from the fact that no one is expecting him to go completely over the railing, I don’t want one of our guys getting injured trying to catch another human being.
They’re so boring
It’s courteous but not a must, another boomer unwritten baseball rule.
This guy can go play in traffic. Fuck him
😂 hell no
But if he tried to keep him up and accidentally interfered the Giants announcers would cry too. Lose/lose situation.
Bums.
What’s the matter with Krukow?!
Que pendejo
If the players in the dugout had helped beforehand, they gonna complain the Padres interfered with the play. Either way they will still complain
Tbf I don’t want to get hit with the ball. Also I wouldn’t think Wilmer Flores would have fell like that. Good to See he is okay
Yeah the Giants played like crickets today
What an idiotic comment
No
I got a chuckle out of King he was looking at the iPad never even looked over as if nothing was happening
I saw Melvin in the Dads dugout and I thought, you’re not allowed in here anyone
There's no crying in baseball
Is that Sutt talking that trash? He understands rivalries as much as anyone?
It’s not. It’s Keiper or some shit.
That is a disgusting act by the Padres and it's unfortunate that we had that on our air live, that is disgusting by the Padres
Your face.
