Man, Vin Scully is just fun to listen to as an announcer. Maybe the Royals announcers could take some lessons? |

He's the best. I feel privileged just to watch the games.

Listen to a lot a baseball on the xm. He's definitely the best. I enjoy listening to Bob Uecker a lot as well. There are a lot of bad ones out there. The San Diego guy is awful. His voice is so annoying to listen to.

Matthews used to be one of the best, but he hasn't aged well from what I'm reading here.
Vin Scully is still pretty good, but he isn't the same as he was 10 years ago and longer. He was easily the best there was.

Yes, I'm an O's fan, but I really enjoy Gary Thorne. I think he's one of the best out there as well

Maybe old Whitey can tell us some crying and whining tails of 1985 and game 6. He has done it nonstop for about 30 years now.

No hard feelings. Love the development of KC/BAL animosity. It means relevancy for two teams that were shit just a few years ago.

I understand about Scully. Listened to a few games and is easily tops in broadcasting history.

He just sounded like Rob Lowe from parks and recreation. Took a little pause between every syllable. It got really annoying after awhile
