Subject: Did Heidi Watney call Jose Altuve "short" on Apple TV+? Date: Wed Jul 13 2022 05:59 pm

Speaking of baseball...

I was watching the LA Angles vs. the Houston Astros on Apple TV+ (Friday night b
aseball) a couple of weeks ago, July 1st I think it was, and there was a segment
 where one of the (horrible) Apple TV+ commentators/sideline reporters (Heidi Wa
tney) was interviewing Jose Altuve (2nd baseman) of the Astros. It was like a pr
egame interview and Jose (who is *maybe* 5'6" tall) was talking about his kids a
nd being a dad and I really wasn't paying that much attention but then Heidi sai
d something about some other great defensive player and then made the comment "y
ou short superstars need to stick together". I wasn't sure I heard this right, b
ut the look that Jose gave her confirmed that he heard the same thing I did and 
was not amused. But then she immediately changed the subject and kept on asking 
questions with a smile.

I couldn't rewind because the broadcast was live at the time and I can't find th
is interview anywhere online (YouTube, Apple TV+, etc.) - did anyone else happen
 to watch this interview or can you help me find a copy online? I just think it 
was one of those fantatic moments of television that might be lost to history, b
ut I hope not. It was hilarious (to me). Altuve's a great player, but also an ad
mitted cheat. I don't his vertical challenge is something to be made fun or anyt
hing, I just think that Heidi slipped up and I'd love to relive that moment some
 more.
