It's such a delight to listen to him. He does the game without overloading the listener with stats. No personal opinions, no speculation. I can't believe that I listened to him as a kid. All baseball anouncers - no make that all sportscasters should listen to him - they could all learn a thing or two or three. For a baseball junkie like me it was heaven. By the way, he was born in The Bronx!
Thats great to hear. At what age did Phil Rizzuto retire?

You can't say that these don't know their baseball. It's great when you have passion for your job.
