Dick Enberg may have formally retired from baseball broadcasting following the 2016 season.

But he still kept up with the game, and when the Padres made a trade with the Phillies last week, he tweeted yes, tweeted his analysis, capped by his signature phrase, "Oh, my!"

Enberg, the Michigan-born broadcaster whose rise to fame included a childhood spent on the farms of Armada, Mich., and a college education at Central Michigan University before he went on to a Hall-of-Fame career, died Thursday at the age of 82, a spokesman for CMU confirmed to The News.
