Watching insufferable ESPN broadcasts was impossible for me. 90 percent of the MLB games I’ve followed have been radio broadcasts. I like the Reds and we have a good radio crew.
It will be a difficult season for Brewer’s radio fans.
I agree! I hated the ESPN broadcasts!

Always been my contention that Baseball is a radio game. It moves slowly with brief instances of easily describe-able plays. Granted, TV gives the visual, but radio has the charm—its an afternoon nappable sport. Frankly, I always loved listening to the Giants on the radio...Hank Greenwald in the 80s was the best, but Lon Simmons, and Russ Hodges were great with Russ’ “Bye Bye Baby”
Hank wouldnt let the game interrupt a good baseball story and if it was a double header—Hank would come loaded for bear with enough material to take us through.
I remember my first in person game. Dad and Granpa taking ten year old me to Candlestick Park—1966 against the LA Dodgers. All the Willies were there, all the greats of yesterday. The sights and sounds. The program. It was where I first had Gulden’s Brown Mustard and have had it ever since.
