If you watch a Rangers game on TV, definitely turn down the TV sound, and turn on Eric Nadel’s radio broadcast.

One of these polls is needed for the NFL, although it probably would not change anything.

Phil Simms is one of the worst color men on TV...sometimes I think he knows nothing about he game. He's great at telling the audience what they have just seen for themselves. And if I hear "We talked about" one more time I'll flip my lid.

The Mets have the best announcers both TV and Radio

Even though the Mets stank these last few years, they have made the games entertaining

Like Keith Hernandez admiring a female fan's hot dog & more

However, the Yankee Broadcasters are the worst ever. Especially, radio team. that woman is so annoying.

I like Mario and Rod in Detroit. There will never be anyone to hold a candle to Ernie Harwell but Mario and Rod are OK.

The absolute worst are the ESPN national announcers. It doesn’t matter who is playing, they’ll spend most of the game talking about the Yankees and Red Sox.

A couple years ago during a game in Detroit covered by ESPN the camera showed a view of the Ambassador bridge and one of those morons said it was the golden gate bridge.

No doubt about last place! White Sox announcer Ken Harrelson makes me want to start cutting myself again. Anyone who says some other announcer is worse has never been forced to listen to the jacka... er, I mean, Hawk!

Great list.

All I can say is the Baltimore Orioles games are a pleasure to watch and the Nationals are painful.

The king in my opinion.

Ernie Harwell calls Detroit Tigers 1987 Clincher

“Color” commentator are for soccer moms.

Is there anything worse than watching a game and constantly having your mind dragged down into those depths?

Answer: no, there is not.

Jerry Remy makes me cringe. Always has, always will.

There was a guy with the Red Sox some years ago named Ned Martin who was the best,IMO.IIRC he went national (NBC?) toward the end of his career.

-Duane Kuiper (play by play)

-Jon Miller (play by play)

-Dave Flemming (play by play)

-Mike Krukow (analyst)

These guys are a pleasure to listen to!

1. San Francisco Giants
I grew up in NYC 50s and 60s, rooted for Yankees and Giants and listened to the best ... Red Barber, Mel Allen and even Vin Scully.
I'm still a Yankees and Giants fan and watching the Giants (via MLB) I consider Krukow and Kuiper the best in the game

With Scully aging, my vote for the best is Gary Thorne of the Orioles. The worst is that Met radio guy with a lisp.
