If one can keep his cynical side in check and truly compare the teams in the NL Central the Astros only have to take a back seat to the Cards--on paper at least. I have some more thoughts from my sports library.
Was the first PBP voice heard on the network now known as Fox Sports Houston when it was HSE, the TV voice of the Houston Rockets at the time. Since then he has served as lead announcer for the Texas Rangers, jack of all trades for the Houston Astros including play by play, analysis, sideline commentator, pre/post game host and for both radio and TV. He is a play by play announcer for college basketball, baseball and football. Nearly 3000 different sporting events are on his resume from more than 25 sports. His career started at Butler University in his native Indiana and has included stops in Peoria, Honolulu, Buffalo and San Antonio. Greg was the radio announcer for the NBA Indiana Pacers and has the distinction of being the only regularly scheduled announcer for all three Texas NBA teams and both major league baseball teams at one time or another. Inducted into the Texas Baseball Hall of Fame in 1994, he has been the recipient of several honors over the years including "Tellys" for his play by play work with the Texas Rangers and his writing/co-producing of a special on Jerry Levias. Appeared in the movie "Glory Road" and was off screen voice in "Tyson"
