According to Adam Rubin of ESPN, Mets announcer Gary Cohen is one of the finalists for the Ford C. Frick award. The award is for excellence in baseball broadcasting. No doubt Cohen got nominated for his excellent calling of Bartolo Colon‘s home run in San Diego.
The other finalists are Jacques Doucet, Ken Harrelson, Pat Hughes, Bill King, Mike Krukow, Ned Martin and Dewayne Staats. The winner of the award is chosen by a panel of broadcasters, who will be announced during the winter meetings, with the ceremony being included in the Hall of Fame inductions next summer. Graham McNamee was last year’s winner.
Congratulations, Gary! We love you!
