Had this "10 years ago today" pop up in my feed. The very first MLB game I called on television for Fox in 2014. PIT at STL with @JustinKutcher. We happen to have a post game drink where Tim McCarver and Bob Gibson were having dinner. Knowing our crew Tim came over and had some sage words of advice for me. My producer knew Bob Gibson and asked if I wanted to meet him, I did, but didn't want to impose while he was eating, I regret that one.
Biggest memory from this day.... My wife travelled with me and said to both me and Justin before the game, "It's really nice to come to a major league baseball game knowing there's no chance I will leave here crying."
@CJNitkowski @JustinKutcher I can hear this picture . Someone should do a movie about Tim. Judging by this pic, you could play Tim.
@CJNitkowski @JustinKutcher 40 year Braves fan here...some of us still despise McCarver bc of his rant about @DeionSanders years ago...
@CJNitkowski @JustinKutcher You’ve come a long way, keep going!
@CJNitkowski @JustinKutcher Learned so much about baseball listening to Tim during Mets broadcasts when I was a kid.
@CJNitkowski @JustinKutcher I’m old enough to remember both of them playing while I was growing up! What great experiences you must have doing what you do. I love that you’re with the @Braves now ⚾️
