Best baseball voice

I can't wait to hear Vin Scully call a game. I buy the baseball package mainly to listen to him.

I'd buy old This Week In Baseball episodes from the 80s just to hear Mel Allen. Have never found anything for sale.

Who are your favorites?

you just named the 2 best. Amazing how Scully does it alone and never a dull moment. Also he always has some stories about every player from the opposing team.

I'm not sure who the best is but I sure as hell can tell you who the worst was... Jamie Campbell, who did the Blue Jay games the past 4 or 5 years. This guy didn't know the game and was absolutely terrible, the guy should have been announcing horse jumping or something along those lines. He was fired this past winter and replaced by Buck Martinez. Thank god.
