Padres: Broadcasters Finalists for Call of the Year on Solarte’s Catch

One of the more fun aspects of the MLB Awards given out each year is the TV/Radio call award, given to the best call of the year. Though not a whole lot went right for the San Diego Padres this season, their radio broadcasters Dan Orsillo and Mark Grant continue to prove that they are among the best in the business.

In the ninth inning of the team’s 4-1 victory of the San Francisco Giants on July 15th, Orsillo and Grant humorously called a spectacular catch made by third baseman Yangervis Solarte off the bat of Angel Pagan.
