2 - 1 Score, 3:23 Game

The Cardinals beat the Marlins tonight by the score of 2 - 1.
A 2 - 1 score is a great score that any TV baseball director loves to cut.
3 Hours and 23 minutes.
This time of game is a length that every single TV baseball director detests.
I love what I do for a living.
I get to watch the greatest game in the world, baseball, and they pay me to do it.
The people who do not like the game of baseball say that the game is boring because the game is too slow.
They will cite a game such as the Cardinals/Marlins contest tonight as an example of their argument,
And in cases such as this, it is hard to argue with them.
As a TV baseball director, tonight's game/telecast was one of the rare game/telecasts that come around every so often.
A low scoring game that takes a long time to complete.
A low scoring game where finding a rhythm is a most difficult process.
Low scoring games usually equate to a game with a good rhythm.
"A show with a flow".
Not tonight and hopefully not for a long time.
At least the Cardinals won this game.
This could have been worse.
I could have been a member of the Marlins TV team.
