A few words of gratitude for Scott Franzke, one of baseball’s best play-by-play guys.
There are so many things I could say about Phillies’ radio play-by-play guy Scott Franzke. He has infinite patience with the Phillies themselves, as he’s had for the past three and a half years as they’ve traveled down to the basement, unloaded shovels, dug another 100 feet below that, and are now on their way back to up. He has a great rapport (and infinite patience) with his partner in the booth Larry Anderson. He even has infinite patience for random drunk idiots shouting at him at a nearly-empty late-season baseball game.
