Anyone from the PNW listen to the game in Pasadena today? I want to know who the announcer was. I was listening on 1190 KEX, out of Portland and the one I want to know about was named Mike.

If you know, let me know and I will tell you why later.

Lotta help you are Zm.

I take it it was on TV. I tried to find it, on TV, to see if the same anouncer was on but to no avail. Maybe I just scanned the channels during advertisement.

I watched it on TV. I like to watch Pac-10 games. It was on Direct TV on channel 653, I think.

I have absoluely no idea who the announcer was.

Maybe Monday I will call the radio station and see if they know. The reason I am curious because the primary announcer was a dead ringer for Vin Scully

I listened for quite a while, with only the barest suspicion that it might not be him. Then I heard his sidekick refer to him as Mike. His whole vocal pattern, word inflection and announcing style was uncannily Vin Scully.

For those of you who may not know about Vin Scully, he is widely regarded as one of the very best baseball announcers of all times. He is the longest standing announcer for a single ball team, in history. He started back in the late fifties, with the Brooklyn Dodgers. He still announces for them today. He also did a stint in football. Don't know if he still does.
