So here's the lede from this ESPN article about the Astros DJ, Nunee Oakes:
Let's be clear: Minute Maid Park is not a good place to catch a first-class baseball game and hasn't been for some time, dating back to ‘05 when the Astros won the National League championship. Coming off one of the worst seasons in Major League Baseball in which the Astros posted a franchise-worst 56-106 record, they aren't providing much enjoyment.
Well, ahem, okay. Anyway, there are stories about Brad Ausmus throwing a ball at the booth to change the music, and Jose Lima getting pissed because Oakes didn't play the right song. So read it, I suppose. Or don't.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
