Retired Blackhawks broadcaster Pat Foley will call his first game at Wrigley Field during the nightcap of Tuesday’s split doubleheader against the St. Louis Cardinals.
An observation — or more like a quip — Pat Foley made to Chicago Cubs manager David Ross illustrated how the retired Blackhawks broadcaster resembles a fish out of water in the world of baseball.
Ross said a reporter asked him Saturday about infielder Patrick Wisdom’s injured ring finger, “and said, ‘We call that an upper-body injury,’” referring to the tendency in hockey to be cryptic when labeling injuries.“I told him you guys don’t like that and why that doesn’t fly here,” Ross said with a laugh.
Foley wasn’t in the media room at the time, but he understands that probably won’t be the only culture shock he’ll experience while calling his first game at Wrigley Field during the nightcap of Tuesday’s split doubleheader against the St. Louis Cardinals.“I haven’t done a baseball broadcast in 20 years. I’ve got some butterflies,” Foley told the Tribune while scoping out the scene in the Cubs clubhouse before Sunday’s series finale against the Milwaukee Brewers.
“I can easily say I’ve never spent as much time prepping for one broadcast as I am for this,” Foley said. “I’m going to be at five baseball games doing this game Tuesday night. “I’m trying to get more familiar with the pacing. Obviously it’s a different sport. It will be challenging.”—Cubs manager David Ross, pondering what it would be like to call a hockey game, when asked about former Blackhawks broadcaster Pat Foley calling his first game at Wrigley Field.
