RIP Ernie.

Jon Miller was talking about him on the radio. It sounded like he was almost in tears. I’m not familiar with Harwell, but I respect anyone that was a part of this game for so long. Rest in peace.

You will be missed Ernie. Only announcer to ever be traded to a team, and also called Thomson’s shot for the Giants on TV. RIP Ernie.

Really sad, I had never known he was a New York Giants broadcaster until I watched his interview with Costas which was really interesting. RIP

I was able to hear him doing Tigers games in the mid to late 90’s when he did TV for then-PASS network. Great voice to listen to. Now we only have Vin left among the old timers. RIP.

I know you nerds know NOTHING about the real game of baseball, or any other athletic endeavor requiring teamwork under physical stress.

Jon Miller was teary on-air last night. I wondered where Dave was and why he didn’t step in, but it was also appropriate at the same time. It definitely made me cry. Good night, Mr. Harwell.
