GameThread: Orioles (4-2) @ Rangers (3-3)
Baltimore Orioles at Texas Rangers, Apr 13, 2009 8:05 PM EDT
KOJI! KOJI! KOJI!
Game time's at 8:05.
BREAKING NEWS: SportsCenter just reported that Harry Kalas, 73, the Philadelphia Phillies' play-by-play man since 1971, passed away today. He lost consciousness in the broadcast booth and was rushed to the hospital in D.C.. Rest in peace, Harry. Baseball will miss you.
via philadelphia.phillies.mlb.com
MORE BAD NEWS: Mark Fidrych, the eccentric pitcher known as "The Bird," died in a farm accident at his home. He was 54.
“Baseball will miss him. They missed him because he didn’t have as long as a career as everybody would have liked in the first place. It’s just horrible,” former Orioles pitcher and Hall of Famer Jim Palmer said. “He did embrace life. I remember him trying to play golf when he couldn’t play golf and enjoying every minute of it.
“He was a marvelous pitcher and I just hate to see him go.”

Rest in peace, Mr. Kalas
The Mid-Atlantic region was blessed for having Chuck Thompson and Harry Kalas. Harry could make any player’s name sound epic. He’s the only reason I ever knew who Mickey Morandini was – just hearing Kalas say his name.
"Any guitar solos you hear on the record where it sounds like one note, sounds like Meg White playing guitar -- that's me. Any real guitar solo where a guitar comes in and you go, 'F--k, that sounds awesome!' -- that's not me." - Josh Freese
Rest in peace
Growing up without cable in rural Northern Maryland, I was still fortunate enough to receive television stations from Baltimore, DC, and south central Pennsylvania. In fact, some of the PA stations, like 43 WPMT (Fox), 15 WLYH (Ind/UPN/CW), and 8 WGAL (NBC), often would have a better picture than the Baltimore networks.
This meant that I was able to catch Phillies games on television from time to time. I can even remember watching a few Phils games with Terry Francona as manager. Even though I was able to catch some games, I never had a relationship with the Phillies, but I would still watch the games just to listen to Harry. I don’t think I knew who he was back then, but I did know that I liked his voice and the way he called the game. He was a sportscaster that you could easily identify just by the sound of his voice and the cadence of his delivery – he was very pleasing to listen to.
Thanks for being part of my youth, Harry.
So long, Harry
Crappy news. We in Baltimore just went through this in 2005, losing Chuck Thompson. I’m glad that Harry got to make the call last year when the Phillies won their first World Series since 1980, and that Fox replayed his call moments later (IIRC).

RIP Harry
It’s a sad day for baseball as well as NFL films. I was just listening to the Phillies game yesterday, and it’s sad that Harry’s gone, but at least he got to see last year for the Phillies. Thanks for the memories Harry.
Totally off topic but...
Neither me nor wife has ever had any surgery. Mrs. Toe has been diagnosed with Gall Stones. Anyone around here had the accompanying surgery? If so, what can we expect? Thanks.

Phils-Nats just started
And the fill-in PBP guy started off with:
“My apologies to HK: He said, the first rule of broadcasting a game is be prepared. Well, that’s impossible today. It’s going to be a tough day.”
My heart goes out to all Phils and baseball fans who got to enjoy Harry Kalas’ work.
Danny Cabs is pitching for the Nats, it’s on MASN for anyone interested. And he’s 1-2-3 in the first inning. Figures.

He’ll probably strikeout 7 of the next 15, and walk the other 8

I am completely gutted about Harry
Growing up, I only saw the occasional Orioles game…Harry’s voice is the one I remember from my youth. Totally horrible news.
"In a couple of weeks or a month, I'll be excited about this team," Dawkins said. "I've got to get used to saying that -- I'm a Bronco." Then he paused. "I'll tell you one thing -- I'll always be an Eagle."
Thanks for the kind words everyone
As a huge Phillies fan, I’ll be honest with you, its difficult to watch todays game without hearing Harry. I was totally in shock, and honestly feel like I lost a family member.He was the only voice I ever knew growing up. He was the nicest man you’d ever want to meet. Thank god I had the chance to a few times. For 162+ games every year he was a part of my families life. He’s with his best friend Whitey now though.
Reading the fan stories on the internet in between watching the game is helping. Anyway life goes on, the game does to. I’m sure the Phils will set up a fund in lieu of flowers, so please give what you can to that cause. Thank You.
The Most wonderful time of the year! Baseball Season is here! Phils and O's!
Agreed...
I’m in the same boat. I had a lump in my throat all afternoon… I was dumb enough to be listening to the game at work. I was on the phone with a client when I heard the PBP call on the Victorino home run and about lost it. :(
The Phils and NFL Films will never be the same. :(
a death as bizarre as the man himself
Worchester County district attorney Joseph D. Early Jr. told the Associated Press that a family friend found Fidrych at about 2:30 p.m. ET under a pickup truck that he appeared to have been working on. He was on the same farm he bought more than 30 years ago with his bonus money when he became a professional pitcher, signed out of Northborough, Mass.
In perspective....
he died as a result of an accident on his farm, not health issues.

RIP Harry Kalas-- he is already sorely missed. And just looking at the e-mail from Phils fans...
it’s impossible not to feel like we’re watching a representative of another era go by, too. The number of people who have written things like “I grew up listening to…” is both impressive and touching. There’s something very “old school”, in the best sense, about that.
And that number is dwindling. You think PA gives a sh*t about forcing arguably the best announcer in baseball, John Miller (and half of the best team, with Joe Angel) to leave town so a fan base couldn’t “grow up listening” to him? Nah. Want to bet PA didn’t “grow up listening” to anybody?

RIP Bird Fidrych, too, a wonderful guy to watch playing the game.

Sober up immediately. Children may be watching this thread!
Mike was great in the Amazing Colossal Man skit, and his writing may have been the single best contribution in that (crowded) field. But as host he was totally lost, and knew it.
It was also unfortunate that his voice register was so low that some of what might otherwise have been well-played bits were heard only by dogs. Or anti-dogs, I guess. Not me, in any case, and I was listening hard!

Joel was a prop-comic...
and the invention exchanges were NEVER funny. Ever. It was the first thing that went once Mike started hosting and the host segments started getting so much funnier.
I think we can agree that if you didn't get the invention exchanges, then yeah, they weren't funny.
"Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning." Churchill,1942-- a rebuilding year.
Yes, or I wish, but I'm right in any case.
Having invented the show— in his own “shaky” and “uncomfortable” man-doing-a-wised-up-kids’-show image— Joel thrived at being exactly that. Which was part of the charm of it all. If that eludes johnny-come-lately viewers, hey, their loss.
"Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning." Churchill,1942-- a rebuilding year.

Um, yes, see above. Propos to Mike's *writing*.

Mike *wrote* lotsa funny jokes. He *delivered* them less well. In a character (rather than as host)
he did some v. good work (viz. Colossal Man), but with his Mr. Straight-Host-I’ll-Clean-Up-This-Unbearable-Joelness-of-Being stuff, MST3K became just another show. Which is one reason the Bring Back Joel movement started.
Hey, we disagree. These things happen when you guys are smashed on I’m on drugs.
"Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning." Churchill,1942-- a rebuilding year.
See I think he delivered them far better. I think he’s a much better comic. I also think the show was better-written. ALSO — so it doesn’t seem like I don’t like Joel, ‘cause I do — Mike got funnier movies to work with for the most part. Like there’s really not much Joel or anyone could do with some of those 50s borefests like First Spaceship on Venus. There’s a LOT you can do with Boggy Creek 2.

In a single word, goofy is probably the difference. If you valued goofiness most in your MST3K
you’re a Joel guy. If you rated set-piece, traditional comedy higher, you’d favor Mike. Agreed?

they didn't have the technology for a split screen comparison
So they went back and forth between a picture of Diamond Dave lookin’ mean in his O’s uni and a picture of William Shatner on one of the guy’s laptops. No lie.
