For as much crap as TMac gets, and rightfully so most of the time, I'd take him 10 times out of 10 over Hawk Harrelson.
Yes son. I'm the best mono-thingy guy there ever was.

Hawk is a tough one for me. His "you can put it on the booooaaaaarrd, YES!" after a HR is probably the dumbest call in MLB, but his "he gone" after a strikeout is probably one of the greatest.

Worst announcer in baseball is the horrible Yankees guy with all his dumb rhymes. Like nails on a chalkboard.

So, the Yankees are basically the kings of insufferably annoying announcers?

Kay is on TV and Sterling radio I think.

Good career, but really looked like he'd be one of the best shortstops ever in his mid 20s.

Was he not that? I mean his numbers from 07-14, pretty damn good. That's eight years of sustained performance. He was one of the best shortstops ever if you ask me.
