Davis was faced with the impossible task of replacing Vin Scully, and has pulled it off far better than could ever have been expected. As a play-by-play guy, I think he's superb (even if he is hampered by overtalkative color guys). One of the highest compliments I can pay him is that, when he does a Dodger game on national television he calls it with no homerism (unlike too many others, especially the nimrods we have here in the Bay Area); one would never guess he's the Dodgers regular guy. Smoltz is awful and incapable of not rooting blatantly for the Braves, but I guess that's what is to be expected nowadays.
I think he's the perfect candidate for this job, but I do regret it'll cut down on his Dodger assignments. --Dave Sikula On Friday, April 8, 2022 at 6:08:35 AM UTC-7 Bob Jersey wrote: > Joe Davis, 34, gets the job.
