List of San Francisco Giants Broadcasters

List Of San Francisco Giants Broadcasters

For most Giants radio broadcasts on KNBR, Jon Miller and Dave Fleming take turns calling play-by-play (usually Miller will call innings 1-2, 5-6, 8-9, and Flemming will call innings 3-4, and 7). The Giants' telecasts on CSN Bay Area feature Duane Kuiper as play-by-play announcer with Mike Krukow as color analyst. On KNTV telecasts, Miller teams with Krukow for innings 1-3 and 7-9 while Kuiper moves to the radio booth alongside Flemming; the two then switch places for innings 4-6.

Through 2010, Miller held a second job as play-by-play announcer for ESPN Sunday Night Baseball, and therefore usually missed weekend Giants games. On these occasions, Greg Papa would take Miller's place on either the television or radio side; however, on weekends when the Giants were featured on FOX (Saturday) or ESPN (Sunday) and therefore not on local TV, Kuiper and Krukow would join Flemming on the radio, and Miller would generally work the Saturday game if ESPN was in San Francisco that weekend.

On July 14, 2006, for a Friday night home game, Fleming made his television broadcast debut for the Giants. Since then, Flemming and Kuiper have taken turns calling all weekend road games on the radio and on CSN Bay Area (Flemming calling innings 1-3, 7-9, and Kuiper calling innings 4-6 on the radio; and vice-versa on TV). However, Flemming solely calls all weekend home games and road games against the Oakland A's on the radio. (It is noted that Miller would fill in for Flemming for Saturday's game only if the Sunday game is on ESPN.)

After every game all of the announcers come together on the radio side for the "post game (w)rap", recapping the game's key plays and selecting players-of-the-game in humorous fashion.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, san, francisco and/or giants:

    Religious literature has eminent examples, and if we run over our private list of poets, critics, philanthropists and philosophers, we shall find them infected with this dropsy and elephantiasis, which we ought to have tapped.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Lastly, his tomb
    Shall list and founder in the troughs of grass
    And none shall speak his name.
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    the San Marco Library,
    Whence turbulent Italy should draw
    Delight in Art whose end is peace,
    In logic and in natural law
    By sucking at the dugs of Greece.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Today, San Francisco has experienced a double tragedy of incredible proportions. As acting mayor, I order an immediate state of mourning in our city. The city and county of San Francisco must and will pull itself together at this time. We will carry on as best as we possibly can.... I think we all have to share the same sense of shame and the same sense of outrage.
    Dianne Feinstein (b. 1933)

    We have grasped the mystery of the atom and rejected the Sermon on the Mount.... The world has achieved brilliance without wisdom, power without conscience. Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants.
    Omar Bradley (1893–1981)
