Eric Nadel On His World Series Winning Call, Atmosphere In The Booth & More | K&C Masterpiece 

Love Nadel. I’m so glad he got to call the final game of the World Series. He deserved it as much as anyone. Such an amazing voice and I’ve enjoyed listening to his calls since the late 80s.

Definitely one of the great voices of my childhood and youth. Thank you, Mr. Nadel. And RIP Mr. Holtz

Some of my favorite memories are listening with my Dad, in the garage, to the radio calls of the Rangers with Eric and Mark Holtz. My dad died a year ago. It's only a sport, but this means a lot to me. I was 12 years old when Eric began calling Ranger games, which is when I began listening. RIP Mark Holtz. Ever since Mr. Holtz left the booth, listening to the Rangers on the radio, I think: "This isn't quite right." Literally every time. Last thought: is there any way you can post the entire game 5 radio broadcast?

I'm 38 years old and Nadel's voice is one of my earliest memories. So glad that he not only got to witness the Rangers first title, but he got to make the call.

I cry every time I hear the clip of Eric World Series call

Eric love from pakistan in80s listening to you and and holtz was a pleasure mustafa. From karachi pakistan

God Bless and keep Eric. He called the entire run from his return in August until Sborz's last pitch beautifully and his final call last night was the joyous release we were waiting for all this time. The ghosts are gone.

We need a shirt with the trophy and the words "We're not dreaming" on it.

I had the tv on mute and was listening to Eric and in the back of my mind I wondered if he ever thought about Mark Holtz once they won. Those guys shaped my sports childhood

YES I love the final call it honestly made me tear and Thank god! WE FINALLY WON!!!

Rangers fan since I was 10 I am now 44 I know all love all y'all glad we got one. Texas 4 life

Great call Eric. It made me tear up listening to your call. You are a true HOF’er. You returning to the booth made this World Series championship absolutely 100% complete.

I was born 1962. I've lived in DFW most of that time. I first heard of the Texas Rangers in the early 1970's. I asked my big brother, "What are they?" He replied, "A major league baseball team." I asked, "What do they do?" He replied, "They play bad baseball."

Thank You Eric and Texas Rangers ⚾👏❤

Been rocking with Texas rangers from Austin Texas, since the games was on soo much on cable in 2000s I started liking the rangers in 1999, glad they finally won.

I'm so happy for Eric Nadel. Our Texas Rangers are World Series Champions.

My dad died in 2014 so he never got to see them win. But we went to so many games through the years. This one's for all of us

“I love a parade” had the same energy as the “I like turtles” kid lol

Love that you got to Mark Holtz. Such a great broadcaster. "Hello Win Column!!!"

Once Semien hit the home run in the top of the Night I went from watching it inside on my TV straight to my car turned on the radio broadcast just to hear Nadell in the guys call the final out for the Rangers winning the World Series

The man is a great voice for the Texas Rangers! I am so happy that he was the spokesman for the World Series! I always listen to him on XM and follow my Texas Rangers from Washington state. Being from Texas I reside in Washington and always follow my Texas teams. I also listen to 105 the Fan. Great sports podcast. God Bless the Texas Rangers and credit to Bruce Bochy! Rangers for life!

Eric’s call was perfect. He had 40+ years to think about it and he nailed it.

From the time I was born in the mid-eighties to today, he's been a consistent voice in the background of my life.

"I love a parade!" Hell yeah, Eric Nadel! Hell yeah!

Thank you Eric Nadel. You are the best.

Nadel is the best! I have made his WS call my ringtone so I can enjoy it all the time!!

Cant believe it happened!

OH I wish I could have listened to Eric call the last strike/victory last night LIVE! I had muted the TV cuz Smoltz but I have to tell you that The Fan 105.3 on Audacy (which I had downloaded on my phone a few days earlier) lagged behind the FOX broadcast, & I had great difficulty trying to pause the TV to get it to sync. I gave up each game I tried to use it because it wasn't worth the hassle & it was frustrating. I LOVED what I did manage to hear- you guys so much better than Smoltz, Joe Davis, Kevin Burkhardt, A-Rod, Dave Raymond, CJ...........so I'm hoping y'all can get the lag time fixed before next season when we win our SECOND WS!! 😉♥💙⚾ (Thank you so much for sharing it here! )

That was great, it does feel Like a dream. I am 66, I was 14 in junior high in Dallas, when the team came from Arlington. I wanted this so bad.

A good man, a generous heart, and a wonderful communicator. I'm so glad you were on air for this win, Eric! During that last inning I was thinking what a moment this was for you as much as anything else.

I’m 45 and like most Ranger fans I grew up with him calling games all of the good ones and the gut wrenching bad ones I’m so glad I got to hear him call this game! I just want to see us win at home!!

Hello Win Column!

I wanted the world series for 2011, the Rangers organization, the fans by most importantly, Eric Nadel, he is a legend and before anyone else he deserved that moment! Thank you Eric, I hope the crowd cheers that during the parade, you earned it man!

Eric Nadel is an instrumental part of the Texas rangers. As a fan we needed to hear his outlook when things were down, and his excitement when things were up. This whole run seemed at times to be written in God's script. So many unbelievable moments. Congratulations Texas Rangers. You guys deserve it !!!

So thankful Eric got his moment....love listening to him since i was a kid....😊

It didn't feel real until I head Eric Nadel make the final call.

Even though I'm a not Rangers fan, hearing the team's radio broadcast reaction winning the World Series on my SIRIUSXM app here in Los Angeles was an amazing moment to hear. I bet those die hard Rangers fans living in Arlington were hearing this game on their radios 📻 as well.

Even though the ghosts of 2011 have been banished, I still refer to the 2011 dream crusher as “David Effing Freese”.

Hello win column!

I’m glad Eric finally got to call a winning Texas Rangers World Series!

Thank you Eric. From the bottom of my heart thank you. I'm so happy you have this.

Hello win column!!

Hopefully Mark Holtz was celebrating in heaven (The author of Hello Win Column)

Thank you Mr. Nadel!! What a great call!

Love nadel, dfw sports fan for life ❤❤❤❤😂😢🎉

Thanks for posting this! Eric is the best on and off the air. He loves and respects the fans! So happy for him!

Listened to him for such a long time working nights, I’m so glad he was alive to see it and call it

Man this puts tears in my eyes 🥹 what a year what a team, I'm so proud to be a texas rangers fan, for life.

Great interview.

So many times as a kid, I would sneak my radio under my bed covers at night to hear the West Coast games that Mark Holtz and Eric Nadel called. Feels asleep many times to their voices. I am sure Mark Holtz was smiling down on his Rangers and his former radio partner Eric Nadel. RIP Mark Holtz

I watched the game live on TV and it was so sweet. My wife teared up, but I did not. At least not until my drive to work this morning listening to Nadel's call being replayed on the The Fan. I tip my hat to this guy! Still have his bobblehead and listen to it occasionally.

I'm a 37 year old lifelong Rangers fan that grew up in Kansas. I have so many memories of road trips with my family and my dad blaring the Rangers game on staticky AM radio. So hearing Nadel finally say the words THE RANGERS WON THE WORLD SERIES gives me chills!

I’m so happy for Eric. So deserved.

I certainly thought about Mark Holtz. If there's a Heaven, he was looking down and celebrating! Along with Johnny Oates...

It still does feel like a dream. I felt confident Eovaldi and Montgomery would be a daunting two-game stretch for Arizona, but it just feels unreal that this team is the team that broke through for the Rangers after that 2011 didn't get it done against St. Louis. It just feels strange. Watching them since April took a feeling out process because there were so many new faces...new to me at least because I watched maybe nine total innings the previous year because every time I tuned in they were making God-awful baseball plays. To climb so quickly out of the misery of not being able to watch them....crazy. I was over the moon when they landed Boch, and I felt confident they would get it done in three to five years, but this...credit to the guys...they just did not relent and Boch and the staff never allowed them to waiver. Amazing.

Jared Sandler is an angel of a man

I’m running on an hour of sleep.

Everyone was wondering what would happen if the Rangers didn’t win the World Series. I guess we’ll never know!!!!!

I remember Holtz and Nadel as a child. Hot Texas summer nights, windows down, driving home from the baseball fields with my family.

Where is the bobblehead of Eric's call!! I have the one " The Rangers are going to the world series"!! We need the winning call!! Bobblehead!!

Hello pennant, Hello World Series, Hello win !!!

Eric is a brilliant super talent ! ....A personal relationship with Jesus Christ is the sure fire cure for his depression .

I just wish Mark Holtz was here to see this.

Trying to find Eric's call of the Semien homer, but having no luck so far; can anyone point me in the right direction? Haven't finished the vid yet, so just ignore me if it's played here haha

Gotta think he will be retiring now

God bless Rangers.. So proud of them. Just want to see Mavs win in next 2 years. Screw the clown JERRY with his circus house.

I couldn’t watch the game. I haven’t watched a ranger game since 2011. I couldn’t watch until I knew it was over. Too stressful. Couldn’t help it.

11 straight R ays O rioles A stros D backs Will NEVER happen again!!!!!!!!

Rangers TV commentator Raymond is awful, I never listen to the TV broadcast. And Emily Jones...please dump her. But Nadel is tops. He grew up like me listening to the great radio broadcasters in NYC.
