His Southern smoothness the Folksy description Hess for a big Strong player the excitable Call of Fuzum Mmble the hurried Tempo to match seeded action these Are some of the trademarks and talents of a skilled craftsman. Unfortunately for Jackson and television audiences his current assignment is Abc s telecast of the National league championship series.  is badly mis cast. The same qualities that make him right for College football make him commentary wrong for major league baseball. This is after All the age of specialization. Jack son is perfect for fall saturday afternoons in the Sun Belt conveying the Rah Rah spirit As Young men Many of them teen agers most of them amateurs butt Heads before the student body. Bobby socks cheerleaders marching bands and dear Alma mater that s Jackson s turf. It s too bad then that Jackson steamed with Tim Mccarver for the mets astros series. For the athletes Here Are adults some Middle aged All professionals. The game is deliberate even Heady with controlled Energy and few explosions. Especially for the playoffs it requires broadcasters with discrimination knowledge and a willingness to probe beyond soft generalizations. Take game 1, on wednesday  an astros runner did not try to score from second on a single to left Jackson said the runner was respecting Moo de Wilson s  in fact Wilson s Arm almost never gets respect especially since shoulder surgery in the Spring. Jackson merely saw the runner Stop and Drew a Standard conclusion. During game 2, Jackson said twice that Bob Ojeda takes a healthy Cut at Bat once calling him the big  if that is True then Why did Ojeda have a.113 batting average with no Home runs and no runs batted in during the season maybe he swings hard in Case he hits it but the facts would indicate his Cut is not healthy. Is a photo Keith Jackson. Miscast in baseball curiously Mccarver has not stepped Forward to fill the breach. Inc one Nota ble exception came in game 2, when Rafael Santana was Safe at first after hitting a ground Ball Force out at second. Jack son said Santana had Good  Mccarver Over a replay said Santana has average Speed and that the Ball was hit too slowly for a double play. There is Abig difference Between those two descriptions. Perhaps it is out of respect for Jack son but Mccarver who knows the met inside and out seems to be satisfied to let his partner do too much of the talk ing. The result was a Corn Pone Quality to the first two games with Little of the Eru Dite insight and humor that Mark Mccarver s work on met regular season games on Wor to and Sporl Schannel. Maybe Mccarver is holding Back so As not to appear partial to the mets or maybe he s just feeling his Way with a new partner though he and Jackson have worked together before. Whatever the reason Mccarver could improve the telecasts by speaking up More during the remaining games. Be sides modesty does not become him any More than it does the mets or most new yorkers so there s no sense trying to Tim Mccarver. Needs to speak up change now. As for pictures Peter Lasser the pro Ducer and Craig Janoff the director have Given us some Good ones. The most memorable involved the contrasting for tunes and moods of Keith Hernandez. In game i after he was called out on strikes Hernandez was so livid team mates had to console him. Close up Pic Tures of the dugout showed two players with their arms on him As he muttered his eyes flashing. His anger continued As he took the Field and the cameras Fol Lowed him. In game 2, after he tripled knocking in two runs Hernandez was bursting with fist pumping enthusiasm. The Cam eras followed him then too. Together those twin images capture the drama and results of the first two games More Chanall the words we be heard. Abcs team for the american leagues cries Al Michaels and Jim Palmer has produced better balanced work albeit with some curious moments. Unlike Jackson Michaels is versatile switching from monday night football to base Ball without fumbling a line. Perhaps the key is that he is dealing with pro athlete sin both cases. Regardless his work during the first a photo Jim Palmer. A tired Monotone two Boston California games has been easy on the ears and stimulating.  said for example that Jim Rice is Mel lowing after being acerbic for most of his career and that Mike Witt had been truculent with reporters. And on the play in game 2 when Bobby Grich rounded third and was caught in a run Down Michaels immediately pointed out that the third base coach. Moose stub ing had not Given Grich a signal. I was looking at Stubing and Moose never gave a sign Michaels said As Grich slammed his helmet and shouted at Stubing. Palmer the former Pitcher brings a Range of Talent and intelligence especially about pitching patterns. Otherwise his work has been weak full of lame excuses and rationalizations often delivered in a tired Monotone. Thus Witt was truculent because of the High expectations. Rice is Mellower because in Don Baylor Boston now has another Black  if Ever a com ment cried out for elaboration that one did. And when Grich exploded at stub ing a Bush act for which Grich apologized Palmer said the flare up showed Grich sintensity." there s a lesson for the youngsters watching
