I admit I don't hear much of the other baseball announcers around the MLB but I do have the good fortune to witness the Red Sox announcers, Gerry Remy and Don Orsillo in action. I think they have to be one of the most amusing teams to broadcast a game. They crack me up.
Especially when they both get goofy and can't stop laughing, I find it hilarious and infectious! I missed tonights game but at 10-1, I bet they had a great night Smile
Tonight Orsillo was showing Remy his dance moves, "The Sprinkler" and The "Shopping Cart". Remdog was talking about Studio 54 back in the days when he could "clear the dance floor". When they get laughing, Orsillo's voice goes about 10 octaves higher than usual and Remy's deadpan analysis of situations that come up during the course of a game are a hoot to listen to. Funny stuff.

Here's a great example from a couple years ago:

I may be a biased Red Sox fan but seriously, is there any other announcer team in MLB that's as amusing to listen to?
i find hawk harrelson from the chisox remarkably amusing - it's like he thinks he knows how to announce a baseball game
