Shulman is top notch.
I do find it odd that Buck doesn't go into more old time stories.Catchers usually have the best stories. Nevermind that, he managed the Jays for 1.25 seasons with no prior experience so should have some insight there too, but he never brings that up. Same with Team USA.
Tabby too, not nearly as many stories as you'd think or expect from a guy that played 1200 games and on the WS Champions. Though Tabby is becoming more and more as the "keep your feet moving and go hard to the net" cliche machine like Charlie Simmer was.

I find Buck has become more of a grumpy old man the last few years. Doesn't like catchers on their knees and is always sure to mention when a shift is the reason for a hit. But overall he's fine.
They should find people who can get into the park now when they can. They had no idea what was a home run and what a routine fly ball for the entire Boston series.
