Anyone listening to the Cleveland Indians’ WTAM 1100 radio broadcast on Wednesday evening got a small glimpse into the personalities that make Tom Hamilton and Jim Rosenhaus the best radio duo in all of baseball.
A foul ball off the bat of Seattle’s Mike Zunino shot straight toward Rosenhaus and his in-booth television. Not only did Rosey not catch the foul ball, he apparently ducked underneath the counter in what Hamilton playfully called a “cowardly act.”
Hamilton and Rosenhaus continued the conversation throughout the at-bat:
Hammy: You had a chance to bring the boys home a major league baseball, but you’re not catching it underneath the counter.
