Angels We Lost In 2017

My least favorite post to do every year, but a tribute from my personal collection to those Angels we lost in 2017.

Dick Enberg
Angels Broadcaster 1969-1978
Next to Vin Scully, my most favorite announcer voice is Dick Enberg, and it helps that he called the Angels games I listened to and watched in my youth.
"And the halo shines tonight."

Bob Sadowski
Angels 1963

Morris Nettles
Angels 1974-1975

Ned Garver

Todd Frohwirth

Ruben Amaro

Bob Cerv

  1. I'm sure I say this every year... but we sure lost a lot of great athletes in 2017. I was really bummed to hear about Enberg and Johnny Bower this week.
