Larry Andersen should not be doing Phillies play by play on the radio

yes, because the "rotation" recycled, Andersen was play-by-play man for the walk-off sacrifice-fly for the Washington victory. and yes, i think he had his Donnely Directory out. My problem is even if you don't know half the team on the field, you can always give the time and score, or in baseball, score and inning. he said it ONCE, yes just ONCE at the start of the inning right after the commercial, and as i mentioned did not give the score before they went to the "post-game" break. it was almost 5 minutes before Frankze semi-interrupted him to announce 6-5 the nationals win it tonight. Now there are some P.D.'s out there think that saying the score "too often" pushes away the listeners, but you never know who is tuning in at what time.

god bless Merrill Reese, i love his enthusiasm, but ALWAYS, ALWAYS, unless it's the two minute warning or the end of a quarter, always says, "there's a timeout on the field with the score, the Eagles-14, Team-X-7." he never gives the time remaining.
