Diamondbacks radio announcers Greg Schulte and Tom Candiotti are good at their jobs. But Arizona fans might have been annoyed this just how good they were on Monday night.
Schulte and Candiotti were on the call for Game 2 of the NLCS in Philadelphia, and as Arizona starter Zac Gallen threw his final warmup pitches, the broadcast duo was talking about Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber’s penchant for hitting leadoff homers.
“Schwarber [is] 4-for-25 this postseason, but always a threat up there at the plate, and there’s oftentimes where he can really lift this crowd with a long home run to start a ballgame,” Schulte said.
