Dave Sims takes over for John Sterling in the MFY radio booth.
Hope for the best. Expect the Mets.

I hope he's got someone willing to hit foul balls off his face at home

Sims is a good p-b-p guy.
He's been out in Seattle for years doing M's games but I don't think he ever permanently relocated so not surprising that he leapt at the chance to get back east.

Which means the Yanqui radio booth just got younger by about 40 years!!

Banned from all baseball stadiums for life. Good! That's what shoulda happened and anything less woulda been an outrage.

These two are punks and I have no problem banning them. But how is that enforced? What's to stop them from showing up at Wrigley or something for a random Cubs game?

If they do that and are caught, they probably run the risk of being convicted of a crime. That should be enough of a deterrent. What else are you gonna do? You can't chop their heads off. And they don't have to be caught in the moment. Somebody could rat them out after the fact, too.

Lock them in a warm, humid room for a week and play a continuous loop of ESPN announcers doing a baseball game.
That would be sufficient punishment.

Apparently one did. He can't get away from the tell.
I have never insulted anyone. I simply describe them, accurately.

Well, this is better than the initial penalty the Yanx planned to impose which was, IIRC, to upgrade their seats for the next game.
