Radio Accouncers

[mfbmike]

The Granderson play was :jizz: worthy.

 

[celtsxpatsxsox]

lol the Cleveland one was pretty funny. Don Orsillo on NESN usually gets excited anytime there is a big play by either team.

Cubs have great Radio announcers..

Pat and Ron are good.

 

[Goober]

Bob Uecker>all.

Uh... I'm going to assume your deaf.

Pat is great. Ron Santo is AWFUL probably the worst full time baseball announcer in the league. He barely knows what's going on half of the time and most of his telecast is Pat making a point and Santo going "...Yeeah...yeeahh"

AWFUL.

With that being said the White Sox easily have the worst combo of radio and TV. Steve Stone is amazing, Hawk Harrelson is terrible and our radio is just a trainwreck with DJ and Ed Farmer. And yes, to the original topic neither of the White Sox radio or TV ever really gives any credit or acknowledges a great play by the other day. Although the other day Ed Farmer got pretty excited by a play Aybar made at short.

I hate listening to my own radio announcers.. Sterling and Wolcott. They need to give each other perm strep throat.

Three and two to Bonds. Everybody standing here at 24 Willie Mays Plaza. An armada of nautical craft gathered in McCovey Cove beyond the right field wall. Bonds one home run away from history. (crack of the bat) AND HE SWINGS, AND THERE'S A LONG ONE DEEP INTO RIGHT CENTER FIELD, WAY BACK THERE, IT'S GONE!!! A HOME RUN! Into the center field bleachers to the left of the 421 foot marker. An extraordinary shot to the deepest part of the yard! And Barry Bonds with 756 home runs, he has hit more home runs than anyone who has ever played the game!

I agree on the Twins guy. Dick Bremer gets pretty excited for either team on big plays

 

[kyhadley]

yeah I think Orsillo is pretty good

What I like about that call is that in the excitment he still got his "WAY BACK THERE, IT'S GONE!!! A HOME RUN!" signature in there.

Are you sure your listening to WGN 720 in Chicago?

Pat and Ron are great.


How does Ron not know anything about baseball? He played the game forever lol.. Dont be bias to your white sox and hate on the Cubs.

 

[kyhadley]

This Ron Coomer guy that is doing the Sox with Orsillo today is pretty good. SO much better than Dave Roberts whos done the last two.

 

[MRN]

Ron Santo shits his pants anytime someone hits the ball..

 

[The Buddha]

Ron Santo goes nuts over the smallest things, and gets real depressed when things dont go the Cubs way...he bleeds cubbie blue, and you can tell when he announces.
