'Old friend' on the air
What a pleasure to have Pat Hughes doing the play-by-play for recent Cubs TV broadcasts. Pat is like an old friend sitting with you and talking about the game. He is such a breath of fresh air compared to Jon Sciambi, who in our household is known as "The Blabbermouth."
Sciambi must really like the sound of his own voice, as he will not shut up. He constantly spouts obscure and, to me, meaningless statistics in an attempt to make himself sound more knowledgeable, and his inane drivel forces us to turn down the sound.
The surprising Cubs have been fun to watch this year, but Sciambi makes it difficult. The Ricketts should dump him this off-season and do the fans a favor.
