During the 2021 MLB All-Star Game, Twitter is annoyed at sportscaster Joe Buck for literally everything.
There’s a growing consensus amongst sports fans that FOX Sports personality Joe Buck should stick to football. Heck, every Jeopardy! fans didn’t want him in the running to be Alex Trebek’s replacement.
With Buck once again calling the 2021 MLB All-Star Game on Tuesday night, baseball fans are once again adamant he is a terrible baseball commentator. Given his recent knack for trending on social media for all the wrong reasons during baseball games, perhaps it should not come as a surprise.
Here’s a look at some of the Twitter reaction to Buck’s commentary during the Midsummer Classic.

To make matters worse, players are mic’ed up during the All-Star Game for in-game interviews. Baseball fans were sympathetic to anyone who had to spend what’s supposed to a fun night with Joe Buck in their ear. At least those watching from home had a mute button.

MLB fans not pleased with Joe Buck
Many baseball diehards took to Twitter to express their annoyance at Joe Buck, who has called every MLB All-Star Game since 2001. Some even posed important questions.
Others had great suggestions. We vote for the players we want to see at the MLB All-Star Game, but what about the commentators? Also, can he catch a ride on Virgin Galactic’s next space flight?
Let Joe Buck be blessed with silence. 🤫
