Kruk and Kuip are great. They make the horrible games bareable sometimes. When the Giants play the A's and its only on the A's channel, I mute the A's announcers. Its hard to listen to anyone other than Kruk and Kuip. Glad to see they are being recognized.

Well, this year should be interesting..
Kruk and Kuip are as all of you have said are probably some of the best in the game. The Cubs with Len Casper and Bob Brenly are a pretty good team too. I cannot stand listening to White Sox games. Not because I am a Cubs fan but the fact that Harrelson is the biggest homer ever. He always wants everything to go the White Sox way and doesn't give credit to the opposition that much if at all. Darrin Jackson was terrible with him for the past couple of years so it is an improvement to get Steve Stone. I find it funny that I watched Stone with Harry and Chip Caray while he was in the Cubs broadcast booth and now he is on the south side doing games.

Joe Angel and Fred Manfra call a great game for the O's radio network, but it's not exactly...well, exciting. And Jim Hunter, with Buck Martinez or Jim Palmer ain't that much better, though Palmer's certainly better than he once was. But I'll admit I'm spoiled...Manfra was brought in to partner with Jon Miller once upon a time, and Mel Proctor and John Lowenstein were the TV announcers. And before that, who can forget Tom Marr and Charlie Eckman calling games? Wow!
