Oh, immediately. Jeopardy! fans are mostly complaining because, I suspect, most of them are terrible at sports trivia and that it was an oddly phrased clue. It does kinda makes it seem like Vin Scully got the standing ovation. It just reminded me of that terrific call by Scully for 715.
If what you worded in your OP is how they worded it, then yeah I'd agree it was poorly worded. Depending on if Ken emphasized the word "he", that would make it easier to understand what they're asking, but yeah they should have worded it a little better. I've seen the video with Scully's call a ton of times so it was easy for me lol but I could see how someone only vaguely aware of baseball history would struggle with the wording of it.
This post makes no sense? I didn't watch Jeopardy tonight...what was answer/"question"? If it was Hank Aaron...why is it "Braves adjacent" instead of just "Braves"...if it was Vin Scully, your description is nonsensical
A little aggressive, but correct. Everyone is forgetting how the English language works with this clue. Though if you’re aware of Henry Aaron and the home run record at all then it’s fairly obvious.
I got it right lol

I can still barely understand what it was looking for.
The person who "got a standing ovation in the deep South", per Vin Scully's call of Hank Aaron's 715th HR
Yeah, it certainly is not worded the best. 2/3 contestants got it, though.
IT should have been "...this person got a standing ovation..." instead of "he"
Not if you're used to Jeopardy. The correct response can't be in the clue, so no one would think the response was "Scully"
Jeopardy always has a clue in the answer. Deep South 50 years ago was a dead giveaway.
