Rich Waltz: Marlins Stories, Jose Fernandez, more

5R66: Ethan and Chris are joined by an old South Florida friend, former Marlins play-by-play man, Rich Waltz (@RichWaltz), who is now calling NBA, college basketball and baseball games on a number of platforms, including Facebook Live, CBS Sports Net and Turner Sports. We start with the best of the Marlins teams he covered, then move into his recollections of Miguel Cabrera, Dontrelle Willis, Hanley Ramirez and "His Name is Dan Uggla!" We talk about the unique way he called Giancarlo Stanton's home runs, and move to his memories of Jose Fernandez and calling Dee Gordon's iconic home run. We close with an update on his current work and his thoughts on innovations in sports broadcasting.
