'86 Red Sox-Mets Radio & TV Crews
This is a breakdown of both the 1986 American League Champion Boston Red Sox & 1986 World Series Champion New York Mets Television & Radio Crews. It should be so noted that 4 Elegant Commentators, namely Ned Martin & Ken Coleman on Red Sox TV & Radio, are no longer with us & neither is The Voice of Summer In NY, Mets Radio Commentator Bob Murphy, who was part of the Television-Radio Crew for The Red Sox, in the 1950s’, with Curt Gowdy S’r, he just having passed away.
On NESN was Ned Martin & Bob Montgomery; on TV 38 was Bob Kurtz & Bob Montgomery; on Radio was Ken Coleman & Joe Castiglione. I listened to WTIC 1080-Hartford for Red Sox games & heard Ken Coleman, he sounding so mellow & Joe Castiglione, he sounding a bit gravely, but enjoyable.
On WHN 1050, a precursor to WFAN, Bob Murphy worked with a former Maine Lawyer named Gary Thorne, who now does ESPN Baseball. Both were easy to listen to. On TV (Sports Channel & WWOR Superstation) were Baseball Hall Of Famer & Blooper King, Ralph Kiner, Gary Thorne & Some Dude we all razz, on “FOX Saturday Baseball”, for some famous sayings as “That Was a Linda Ronstadt-Type Fastball; It ‘Blue Bayou’” & “They Needed a Derrick To Get Jeter Out.” That guy caught Steve Carlton , so he knows what he’s talking about.
Thorne is still on ESPN; Kiner, now 86, will be doing selected Mets Games on Sportsnet New York & the WB11; Castiglione will be on the WEEI-Red Sox Radio Network, this season. That leaves the guy that the Mets have spawned on the rest of the country, who beats one over the head with his analysis, causing many fans to visit web sites, begging him to “SHUT UP.”
On Saturday, 9/10/05, when John Olerud, a proverbial “Quiet Man”, homered into Tier in Yankee Stadium, this Utterly-Nonsensical line was uttered by a Nonsensical “FOX Saturday Baseball” Lead Analyst, who may have been @ a Wine-Tasting (Or Wine Consumption) Party, prior to his call:
“Mime, In The Rock Band, Has Made Some Noise.”
My comment followed with;
“Idiot, in The FOX Booth, is causing me flatulence”

You all know who Tim McCarver is; need I say more!
