NextImg:Announcers go silent after sexual act caught on camera during A’s-Rangers game

Some things can shock you into silence.

And when you’re on a broadcast, the silence can be awkward… for you and the hundreds of thousands — if not millions — listening.

We were reminded of that during the top of the fifth inning between the Texas Rangers and the Athletics as a camera cut to a man grabbing and rubbing on a woman’s chest.

(It seemed to be consensual.)

The couple seemed to know they were on camera.

The camera cut away instantly as the A’s broadcast went into an unsurprisingly awkward silence.

“You are a handful, Chris,” was said on the broadcast shortly after, likely referring to A’s play-by-play announcer Chris Caray.

This was followed by 22 seconds of mostly silence from the broadcast before Rangers third baseman Josh Bung slapped a pop fly out to centerfield.

Caray chuckled while calling the play, which led to the third out and a commercial break as the Rangers led the A’s 5-2 in the middle of the fifth inning.

As for the game itself, the Rangers maintained the lead for the rest of the outing and took home a 9-3 win.

The series finale, to be played on Sunday, will be for the series sweep for Texas, who is also on a four-game winning streak and are just days removed from scoring 20 runs against the Los Angeles Angels earlier this week.

The Rangers, in the middle of a playoff chase, are 70-67 on the season and 2.5 games behind the Seattle Mariners for the final American League Wild Card spot.

The A’s, at 63-74, are conversely not really in playoff contention and nearly 10 games removed from the final Wild Card spot.
