Mid-August visits to St. Louis can be harsh. There isn’t a whole lot that’s “vacationy” about 100 degree weather with 99% humidity, I don't care how good the Zoo is. Apparently, San Diego Padres announcer Matt Vasgersian agrees wholeheartedly. According to several sources confirmed by the media-centric blog, Awful Announcing, Matty V. morphed from “Padres play-by-play announcer” into “angry Pads fan who is bitter of their repeated playoff losses to the Cardinals” during last night’s broadcast. Take it away Matt: From Awful Announcing : A second source has come forward and has given AA the play-by-play. So this dig at STL looks like it's more than likely true. Here is the whole thing via reader VJ.... 8-06-07 Ninth inning Greene hits a double down the line and two fans go over wall to get the ball....Here is broadcast I taped it channel4San Diego...First they ar ...
