The announcers you mentioned did play by play on the radio. This woman announces who is coming to bat, etc. Not that it makes any difference.
Right. I’d actually rather have Kruk or Kuip announce the next batter, anyway.
The fans reacted. When he said, “Pete ROSE,” the fans would all reply. “Who?”
The announcer would continue, “ROSE!”
No one will rival Bob Sheppard.
