Sitting in the press box at Petco Field before the Colorado Rockies and San Diego Padres continue their four-game series, Schemmel sat down with me for a wide-ranging discussion on the Rockies (current season and past ones as well), some of his favorite memories, biking across the country, faith, inspiring Americans and much more.
Schemmel is also the former voice of the Denver Nuggets, calling the team’s games between 1992 and 2010. We talk about some of his favorite memories with the NBA and I ask him which is harder, calling a baseball or basketball game.
