Sorry, gang, may he RIP, but a mediocre announcer at best. Every race call sounded the same, whether the International Trot or a basement claimer. He would rarely call close photo finishes, and, in his retirement years, his work as a fill-in at Saratoga, was full of mistakes. Will give him credit for longevity-I wouldn't want to do night after night calls for over two decades, but far from a top tier announcer.

Plop scooped everyone with this same news back in March 2017.  Turned out that reports of his demise were greatly exaggerated at that time.  Trust that today’ s news, regrettably, is true.
