The Totals On The Board Are Correct
28 Mar 2005Anyone who ever saw a Twins baseball game in Minnesota would recognize the voice of Bob Casey, the Twins PA announcer since before I was born, who turned a no smoking announcement into a work of art, and bellowed the name of every player, home or visitor, as if he were a superstar (even if he got some of the names wrong). He died on Saturday at age 79.
"The totals on the board are correct" is what he said immediately after the final out, even when they weren't. It's hard to imagine what a Twins game will be like without him. (Dave's Picks)
