RIP Herb Score

November 12, 2008

I was saddened to find out that Herb Score died today. I used to listen to every single Cleveland Indians baseball game on the radio growing up.
If the game was on TV, I would sometimes turn off the sound and put the radio on because I liked the way Herb Score announced it.

“Today is a sad day for the Cleveland Indians family and for Cleveland Indians fans everywhere,” president Paul Dolan said in a statement released by the team. “We have lost one of the greatest men in the history of our franchise. Generations of Indians fans owe their love of the Tribe to Herb Score, who was a powerful pitcher and legendary broadcaster. Our thoughts and prayers are with Nancy and the Family.”

Here is an mp3 of some of his broadcasting highlights.
