    Big news: Marty Brennaman has announced that 2019 will be his final season calling #reds games. He has been calling games for the club since 1974 and is Frick Award winner at the HOF.

    This is good and bad. Good because it seems Marty has been going through the motions for sometime now.

    Bad because he really is one of the best in his business that there’s ever been, and yet another part of my childhood is now swept away.

    I have not watched or listened to many Reds games in recent years, but Marty will always be the voice of the Reds to me.

    I would approve of this if he took his son with him.

    Yeah. You never want to be the guy that follows a legend. And love him or hate him, Marty has attained legendary status with many Reds fans.

    I hope Thom goes to Radio and Jim Day gets the full tv gig.

    Marty wants to spend more time with Amanda for sure.

    Marty swore he did not want a retirement tour... I guess that changed.

    Meh.

    It’s time, Marty was great and still has moments but it’s time. Let pray Thom isn’t the replacement.
    When I see the 2016 Reds, I see a 100 loss team and no direction.

    He’s excellent at calling games. It’s the between stuff that’s tiresome. And there’s a lot of between stuff. I like the way Sheldon referred to the Ford Frick Award.
