Jim Piersall knew the game of baseball. He was also gifted with the ability to call a spade a spade. Once in the broadcast booth, he exercised that gift, and knew how to take that spade and clunk you over the head over the airwaves when he thought you deserved it.
Playing this card was rarely thought humorous by players, team management, and all the way up to the owners. Who, even more rarely are willing to own up to their mistakes. So, they managed to fire Mr. Piersall. I guess that was their idea of good management. We need more Jim Piersalls---in all walks of life. I salute your memory, Mr. Piersall. May GOD rest your soul in peace. --- Brian Powell Last edited by brian1961; 06-06-2017 at 12:20 PM.
