Email, from a reader, at 9:23 this morning: “I like Sutcliffe, seems like a good guy, but if you can find it in the Cubs game last night Sut let his thoughts on Erin Andrews be known. It involved her outfit and the Windy City. His broadcast partner (O’Brien I think) quickly steered the conversation back to Sut’s battle with cancer.” So we yanked the video off Red Lasso and something became apparent: How quickly O’Brien and Sutcliffe veered off the topic of Andrews’ yellow dress.

This is fun frivolous stuff, but the score’s 7-0 and the spirits were dampened because Soriano had his hand broken a few innings earlier. We got a chuckle out of it. But how much did O’Brien want to steer the discussion away from Andrews? The look in his eyes said: “Uh-oh, we’re going to get reprimanded for this.” Again, just a guess.

As for Andrews … doesn’t that look like such a sweet gig?
