The top 5 and bottom 5 play by play booth tandems in MLB. Surprisingly, the Cincinati Reds’ Jeff Brantley and Thom Brennamen do not score real well in this poll. “But Brantley, a.k.a. “The Cowboy,” has things to say, dammit! Unfortunately, the things Brantley has to say are usually all filler, which he nevertheless delivers in a grave, condescending tone. And Brennaman, like Brantley, is more than happy to lead a discussion away from baseball—like in the direction of BBQ ribs, which, you’ll be glad to know, the Cowboy eats a lot of.” [GQ]
