Remembering back to Flipper's record...

I don't pay much attention to announcers. Nah, not a protest... I'm just too into the game to pay any attention to the banter. So when Flipper set the record I wasn't aware of it at the time. Don't even know if they mentioned it as it happened? I found out about it in the post game radio show.

At the time... sure, of course! - -I knew he was having one hell of a day... how could one not? But 336? Nope, that didn't occur to me. For those of you who listen... (I'm sure all of you), you probably knew from the announcers when he was nearing the record and when he set the record? That's actually the reason for this post... to ask all of you what the announcers had to say about it as it happened? Was there a big build up... like, "He's getting close".... that's at least one time I wish I would have paid more attention to the announcers... but instead I pace, genuflect, sweat bullets, and if it's a victory I celebrate vociferously and if it's a defeat I shut down TV/Radio and sulk.
