MESA, Ariz. -- Oakland Athletics fans have been blessed to have such fantastic radio broadcasters over the years. Ken Korach and Vince Cotroneo are one of the finest duos in baseball, and you can't forget legends Bill King, Lon Simmons, and Monte Moore. For the last three seasons of spring training, A's fans have enjoyed an up-and-coming voice on the weekdays that could some day join these greats and others like them in the major leagues, Donny Baarns.
Baarns has been the voice of the Visalia Rawhide, the High-A affiliate of the Arizona Diamondbacks, since 2008, though he's moving up to a new baseball job this season.
