Bring back Ernie Harwell for the Series, and Jack Buck's ghost. |
|
Now, there's a pair of Announcers, capital A. Ernie almost 90, and still as sharp as a tack. 1968: Lolich, Gibson, McLain, McCarver, Horton, Brock, Kaline, Flood, Cash, (gasp, yes) Maris, Freehan; or 1934, Gas House Gang, Kenesaw Mountain Landis removes Ducky Medwick from the game - Bring it Cardinals, and God bless you and the non-steroid (now) game of baseball.

1. I bawled like a baby when Buck died. |

I cried more than I did at most of my relatives' funerals. :cry:

Playoffs and World Series should be called by guys who know the ball clubs, not a group of corporate-hatted fucks who cram some trivia on Oct. 3 and get the rest from producers.
I can hear McWhorever now: "In '68, Ray Washburn threw that exact same pitch to Norm Cash and popped him up."
Et cetera, ad infinetum. :eyes:
