The funniest thing about listening to Mota is not that he can't pronounce words, it's that he takes Spanish words and names and pronounces them like a non native Spanish speaker...    Dude pronounced Marquess name as "Markiss".   Cracks me up  

It's a Dominican/Los Angeles street accent.

[Blarg]

And that is why Jones is not getting promoted any time soon. 

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Boo! Jones

[tdawg87]

Season over.

There was a play earlier in the game where he went to his left where he didn't look great either. He got the out, but it was a little closer than it should have been.

Maybe he had trouble because Marquess has French roots not Spanish.

[Blarg]

Arenado should have been the third out. 

[Vlad27Trout27]

I find it funny that he has been doing this for how many years now and he sounds just as bad as he did the first day he started doing broadcasts. At least when you get a new news anchor fresh out of News Anchor Online College and they're terrible on camera, they improve over time. Jose is still as terrible as he's always been. Manny Mota is best Mota

Adell has never made an out this season

[Blarg]

Adell manages to score another run by forcing Arenado to make a hurried throw. Speed is always a good tool.

When you're fast, speed never goes in a slump.

I'm still not convinced Thaiss is ever going to be a MLB hitter. Hope he can prove me wrong.

I actually think Jared Walsh will be a bigger contributor to the team than Thaiss.

Hi..  no

It's Marquez, not Marquess and it's as common a Spanish surname as Jones.   

He does it all the time.

I see what happened -- apparently spell checker altered Marquez to Marquess.   So, lets blame technology.
