A Nuxhall wannabe
I was listening to the game on XM tonight with the Twins announcers and I think I must have heard six different pronunciations of Denorfia. Apparently Joe is not alone. Did anyone else hear those guys tonight?

Of course Herb Score for the Indians was a trip when it came to pronunciation.

Re: A Nuxhall wannabe
Anytime a thread is opened bashing Marty, the posters should be forced to listen to 95% of the other broadcast teams out there.
Minnesota's team is horrible.

I concur, I've heard the Pirates and Twins so far, and to paraphrase an old sports cliche, they couldn't carry Marty's jock.

Re: A Nuxhall wannabe
Marty wearing a jock...now thats funny!
Listening to Joe butcher names was one of the things that hooked me to baseball, mostly because he sounded a lot like my grandpa, another Reds fan. Marty may be opionated, and a little over-the-top, but the guy is a class act, one of the biggest Reds fans around anywhere, and truly deserves his Cooperstown spot. |

The Twins announcers called Votto (Vah-toe), Voe-toe all night long.

Re: A Nuxhall wannabe
That's one of the things that kind of endears you to Joe,the way he mispronounces names from time to time.
