[Husker] Husker baseball wins 13th straight

[Steven Johnson]

OK... I will comment.

I have been listening to radio baseball for over 39 years...KC Royals (Fred 
White and DennyMatthews) and the NU broadcasts for the last several.  I do 
admit, I like Sharpe.  I also like how he calls football.  I am one of the 
few who enjoyed Jim Rose's passion for the Huskers, but he was the voice of 
the huskers at the wrong time.
He had to call games under the Callahan era when we gave up...  Back to 
baseball...  Fiala...EVEN...I, 48 years young,  think that he calls the game 
like an announcer from Wood River...No offense, but definately a small town 
feel.
