BROWNIE POINTS

This is an incredibly special episode for us, as we were blessed to welcome the legendary Greg Brown. Hope you enjoy this as much as we did.

Brown's association with the Pirates began in 1979, when he interned in the promotions department while attending Point Park University. He's now in his 30th year as a radio and TV play-by-play announcer with the Pirates. Only Lanny Frattare (33 years) has called more games as a play-by-play announcer than Brown, who has described the action of over 4,000 games in his career behind the mic.

Known for his outgoing personality and passion for the ball club, the Emmy Award-winning broadcaster has made the phrase “Raise The Jolly Roger” synonymous with a Pirates victory and “Clear The Deck, Cannonball Coming” his signature home run call.

Brown’s dedication and passion for the Pirates extends to his efforts away from the broadcast booth, as he makes numerous offseason appearances in the community, both in the Pittsburgh area and in Bradenton during spring training.

THANK YOU FOR LISTENING..
