Suzyn Waldman was unapologetic yesterday for choking up and sobbing briefly in her report Monday night on WCBS-AM after the Indians knocked the Yankees out of the playoffs. “That’s who I am,” she said by telephone. “It’s unusual, but not for me. I am emotional. I’m a conduit between the players and the fans, and everyone was crying.”
She added: “That’s what I felt. I am who I am. I’m emotional. A lot of people like it, a lot of people don’t. I didn’t do it in a game, and I recovered.”
...“There are a lot worse things than crying on the air,” she said.
So Waldman does listen to Yankee radio re-broadcasts. Good for her...for owning up!

That was pretty annoying. In fact, the whole Sager aspect has been annoying. Rosenthal and Gammons at least provide substantive baseball-related content.
"Talk about..."
"Talk a little about..."
"Talk some more about..."
Ask a ####### question.
Sidenote: When Jim McMahon sang the 7th inning stretch, Carter asked him how Pete Rozelle was doing. McMahon's response: "Uh, he's dead."
I recall a time the Brewers were ahead but in trouble and brought in David Weathers. Weathers didn't get the job done, and Caray started gleefully singing "Stormy Weather". I had to restrain myself from reaching into the TV and throttling him, such was the supernatural power of my rage at his pomposity.
why did he happen to pick those particular examples? NBC ALWAYS did it, every year back in the 60's and 70s
many people first heard Harry Caray during the Cards' WS appearances
and Scooter did the some innings of the 76 series on NBC as well, during Yankee home games
EDIT: now that I'm thinking back, when (and why) did they stop doing that?
