Even though I wasn’t a Phillies fan Harry Kalas was great. He lived nearby. One night I was in a bar when a patron was tossed. Kalas was there. He announced the patron’s departure like he was calling a home run. “That one’s outtah here!”

That would have been awesome to see/hear!

His son has a similar voice to him when calling regular paced plays, but without the signature calls when a high action play comes along. Just doesn't seem as natural. He's ok.
