Honoring a Legend

Harry Kalas
1936-2009
Baseball lost a legend Monday with the passing of Harry Kalas. He called two World Series Championships for the Phillies, and will go down as one of the all time great representatives of professional baseball.
Hats off to a legend, and to a man who sang a mean rendition of “High Hopes”.

Rest in peace Harry, you will be missed.

    I really appreciate this post. I grew up in Philadelphia, and have been a Phillies fan my whole life. Harry Kalas has been the voice of the Phillies for my entire life. Everytime I watched a Phillies game, I heard his voice. It is going to be really hard getting used to a new voice. Harry was more than a broadcaster, he was apart of the team, and apart of the city itself. Phillies fans will forever miss Harry Kalas. May he rest in peace.

    God Bless
