He's been at it for 31 years, calling Mariner games since their first day and is one of the best I have ever heard call a game. He used to fly solo when he did the radio and could tell stories and call all the action without missing a beat.
His voice reminds me of growing up, good weather, and mostly bad baseball. The great thing about him is he's old school he loves the Mariners, but isn't afraid to call them out when their plays are poor or their decisions are lousy.
