I'd like to preface what follows by stating clearly and firmly that I enjoy Bob Carpenter's work. I have listened to him call several hundred Washington Nationals games to this point with a variety of broadcast partners and have enjoyed the work he does throughout the years. He's been extremely polite and friendly the few times we've crossed paths and has always said, "Hello," though he likely doesn't know who we are.
He also has genuinely great scorebooks available for purchase that F.P. Santagelo is always trying to give away.
If that last line made you laugh, you have clearly watched as many games with Bob and F.
