“What makes you happy? What makes you happy? Where do you go? Where do you go? Where do you hide? Where do you hide? Who do you see? Who do you see? Who do you trust?

Continuing on with the countdown from part one, we arrive at my top three great voices of baseball. In fairness, for most fans, it’s their local teams broadcasters that make the plays special.
