Disappointing narrator
What would have made Tales from the St. Louis Cardinals Dugout better?
A narrator that does not sound computer generated. It would also be helpful if he knew how to pronounce the names of Bruce Sutter, Red Shoendinst and Don Denkinger. I think these would be good to know when reading stories about the Cardinals in the 80's.
What could Bob Forsh and Tom Wheatley have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
I love hearing these stories, but in this way they seem disjointed. While many are fun they don't stand on their own well. I would have enjoyed it more if it were told in more of a single continuous narrative.
Would you be willing to try another one of Michael Scherer’s performances?
No
Any additional comments?
It mostly comes down to the reader, he sounds as if he has never even seen a baseball game. He is very flat. It comes across more like a film strip from grade school than stories about baseball. I keep waiting for the "boop" to indicate it is time to turn the slide (nobody under 30 will understand what I am talking about there).
