Kiddie booth

First time I ever heard children in the radio booth during the game. Marty Brennaman had his grandkids in the booth with him and Jeff Brantley for the 9th inning of today's Cleveland - Cincinnati game from Riverfront (I know, I know). We missed a bit of the action, but the Reds nailed it down for a sweep of Cleveland.

Let me say again - Jeff Brantley is the worst play-by-play man in the NL. He's a very good analyst, so I don't mind, but jeez he gets tongue-tied, he forgets to add little details like (e.g. 'it's in for a base hit' or 'that ball was booted' or whatever). You really have to use your imagination and try to interpret the crowd noises in order to know what's happened sometimes.
