Hank Azaria Brings Brockmire Back on Colbert

Fans of Hank Azaria's IFC show Brockmire, about a disgraceful baseball commentator who sports a signature plaid jacket, will enjoy this clip from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, where Azaria donned said jacket to bring Jim Brockmire back to life.

The topics covered include his take on the recent hubbub about Major League Baseball moving the All-Star Game out of Georgia ("America's pastimes are baseball and racism"), as well as Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez's failed attempt to buy the New York Mets, and the fact that most sports broadcasters apparently don't wear pants on the job, which led him to note that when he met Harry Caray, he looked like "a geriatric Winnie the Pooh."

Andy Hunsaker has a head full of sitcom gags and nerd-genre lore, and can be followed @AndyHunsaker if you're into that sort of thing.
