With Tom McCarthy slated to serve as the play-by-play announcer on CBS’ coverage of the Indianapolis Colts-Houston Texans game Sunday, the Philadelphia Phillies TV and radio broadcast booths will sound a bit different this weekend.
Scott Franzke will shift to the TV booth as the play-by-play announcer, with John Kruk serving as the color commentator on NBC Sports Philadelphia‘s coverage of the weekend series against the Washington Nationals.
“Who wouldn’t want to sit with John Kruk for three hours and pick that brain?” Franzke jokingly asked in a conversation with Phillies Nation Thursday afternoon.
