I Have Great Faith That Heaven's There

The Greatest Single Moment Ive Ever Known In Detroit Was Jim Northrups Triple In The Seventh Game Of The World Series In St. Louis. It Was A Stunning Moment Because Not Only Were The Tigers Winning A World Championship That Meant So Much To An Entire City, They Were Beating The Best Pitcher I Ever Saw-bob Gibson.

If I Walked Back Into The Booth In The Year 2025, I Don't Think It Would Have Changed Much. I Think Baseball Would Be Played And Managed Pretty Much The Same As It Is Today. It's A Great Survivor.

I Think If You Checked The Attendance Records Of All The Announcers, You'd Find A Lot Better Record Than You Would Of Anybody Else In Any Other Business Because We Love The Game And Have A Passion For It.

Wheaties Was The Big Sponsor In Those Days (1940s). They Sponsored Almost All The Baseball Games In The Majors And The Minors. That Was A Lot Of Wheaties. I Think There Were Twenty-four Boxes In A Case And Some Of These Guys Were Hitting Twenty-five And Thirty Home Runs A Season. We Had A Dog In Those Days Named Blue Grass And The Players Used To Give Us Their Wheaties For Him. Blue Grass Loved Wheaties And So Did I.

I Praise The Lord Here Today. I Know That All My Talent And All My Ability Comes From Him, And Without Him I'm Nothing And I Thank Him For His Great Blessing.
