After Game 2 of the World Series, FOX was looking for Keith Hernandez‘s phone instead of talking about the game.
FOX Sports baseball analyst Keith Hernandez lost his phone Wednesday night during Game 2 of the World Series.
Hernandez was on the FOX set discussing the game on the postgame show when Kevin Burkhardt announced that Hernandez had lost his phone. Apparently, this was more important than the game because the channel sent a search party into their green room to look for the phone.
FOX even showed viewers a phone number to call if they found the phone.

“Oh man, it’s not gonna be there,” Hernandez said as FOX showed two guys digging under furniture looking for the phone. “I left it out in center field. It’s not there.”
First of all, how did you lose your phone and how did it end up in center field? More importantly, what were you doing in center field? Were you looking to give George Springer a run for his money?
The good news is that the phone was found and returned to Hernandez.

After Hernandez got the phone back, David Ortiz took the phone, poked the screen and threw it off the set. Kevin Burkhardt then asked Big Papi “Did you really just do that?”
Let’s hope that Big Papi didn’t break Hernandez’s phone. If he did, Elaine is going to have to find an alternative method to contact her guy from the 90’s.
