With The Giants I Broadcast

Nicknames Are Baseball, Names Like Zeke And Pie And Kiki And Home Run And Cracker And Dizzy And Dazzy.

Baseball Is A Ballet Without Music. Drama Without Words.

So Much Happened (in 1968) It Was Hard To Keep Up With Everything. We Had Denny Mclain's Thirty-one Victories, Gates Brown's Great Pinch-hitting In The Clutch, Tom Matchick's Home Run To Beat Baltimore In The Ninth Inning, Then Daryl Patterson Striking Out The Side To Beat Them In The Ninth. Excitement Every Day In The Ballpark.

Baseball Is Just A Game, As Simple As A Ball And Bat, Yet As Complex As The American Spirit It Symbolizes. A Sport, A Business And Sometimes Almost Even A Religion.

I Deeply Appreciate The People Of Michigan. I Love Their Grit. I Love The Way They Face Life. I Love The Family Values They Have.
