Here it is. [Eric Nadel ALDS clip]

Thanks much! Let us know if you find the audio of the A-Rod at bat.

I've always been interested in radio play-by-play announcers since I grew up in the pre-TV era in Pittsburgh listening to Rosey Rowswell, Jim (Possum) Woods and, of course, Bob Prince.

Ironically, Eric Nadel hails from New York City. On the other hand, some of the great New York teams baseball announcer were Southerners like Mel Allen and the unforgettable Red Barber.

Yep, if only Mark Holtz was there to call that final out. When I first moved here, I spent many of a night listening to Holtz’s calls of the Rangers, even though they weren’t very good, he made it worthwhile, I was very saddened when he passed away. He was up there with the Vin Scullys and the Ernie Harwells IMHO.
