Tyler Black: From Prospect to Heartwarming Big League Moment with Father as Play-by-Play Commentator”.

On Wednesday night, the Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Tampa Bay Rays with an 8-2 win. The game was marked by a heated benches-clearing brawl that led to players being ejected from the match. However, amidst the chaos, there was a heartwarming highlight involving Tyler Black.

Tyler Black, the 42nd-ranked prospect in MLB, was called up by the Brewers prior to Tuesday’s game. Although he didn’t start against the Rays, he quickly entered the game after catcher Gary Sánchez suffered a hamstring injury in the first inning. During his first at-bat, Black hit a double, and in his second plate appearance in the fifth inning, with the Brewers leading 6-1, Black provided a memorable moment for his family.

Bally Sports Wisconsin’s Sophia Minnaert was interviewing Black’s father, Rod Black, a Canadian broadcaster, during the game. When Tyler came up to bat, Rod Black took over the play-by-play commentary. It turned out to be a special occasion as he got to call his son’s second hit in the big leagues. Rod Black even gave a shoutout to his wife, Nancy, for her birthday during the broadcast, making it a great day out for the Black family.

Rod Black has a long career covering various sports, including the Olympics
