Not only is JB an interesting person Bc of CP. But he is flat out an amazing announcer, and has a golden voice

@almcgeehan8029 7 месяцев назад

Jason, welcome to Comerica Park the home of our Detroit Tigers. Your voice and baseball knowledge will be most appreciated by loyal Tiger fans who will follow the games from coast to coast.

@skippythealien9627 3 года назад

I'm a Cubs fan but i just have to say I love Jason Benetti. He is one of the best broadcasters not just in baseball, but in all of sports...HANDS DOWN. The South Siders are lucky to have him

@sportsmedia25 4 года назад

Jason Benetti is simply a great announcer and the fact that he's the TV voice speaks volumes

@wermzer1312 4 года назад

Love watching the games with this dude. Benetti is the hero the south side needs.

@dariandudzik1871 7 месяцев назад

Here after the news of him taking the job in Detroit. I was never a fan because he was never Hawk. Hawk and the Sox were a pair like pb and j to me. Hearing a different voice just didn't do it for me. Listening to his story and understanding what he's overcome to get to that point has put a pit in my stomach. I didn't truly appreciate him while he was with the Sox. Incredibly inspiring.

I am not a White Sox fan, but I am an aspiring announcer with cerebral palsy and Jason’s story gives me hope.

@rantoolio 4 года назад

One of the best. Thanks Jason

@DotelMotel 4 года назад

It's funny, I am a die hard Mets fan but noticed through watching MLB highlights how good Benetti was as an announcer and I was impressed. Seeing him goof around with Bill Walton was hilarious. I thought to myself, this is going to be the next great MLB announcer. Then I learned about his personal story and realized that this isn't only a man who is supremely talented at his job but also someone who seems like a genuinely wonderful person. We could use a lot more Jason Benetti's in the world.

@jimmybonez8928 Год назад

Fellow Met fan here. Benetti is great as the Sox’s announcer. And his story is inspiring. But I still think Gary Cohen is still the best in baseball. Hands down. Obviously, I’m biased.

@mauricepetty3826 7 месяцев назад

So excited to have you in Detroit. Go Tigers!!!

@JRskatrPvP 4 года назад

Jason and I went to HS together lol he's always been such a nice and also really funny, and he's been at this since then! He would broadcast our football games and what not, so it's so awesome to see him realize his dream and damn is he good at it!

@willpomeroy7711 7 месяцев назад

I recognized his voice being a diehard MLB fan, but didn't know his background. What a great guy and wonderful story. When he was talking about walking and said 'It doesn't look great, but it gets me where I'm going' it made my eyes water up. What an amazing perspective on life.

@lou6227 3 года назад

This is awesome. I'm from Colorado I have cerebral palsy. Best of luck in all you do, jason. Go White Sox

@larrysweetser4198 4 года назад

57 years ago (when I was 5 yrs. old) I had the memorable pleasure of meeting Vin Scully coming out of the elevator at Dodger Stadium heading to the press box. He was one of the most personable people of my memories. Thanks Sunday Morning for introducing me to Jason Benetti. May he meet many young people and leave his mark the way Mr. Scully did for me. Another baseball treasure for the ages.

@davezep 3 года назад

Huge Sox Fan . Jason’s the best. Great announcer

@crossface222 Месяц назад

So lucky we got him in Detroit. The first few broadcasts I wasn’t sure but the more I listen to him, the more I love him. Really really witty and entertaining to listen to.

@tonyatehranie3029 8 месяцев назад

Love Jason-I’d recognize his voice anywhere

@theamazingDrBob 4 года назад

I’ve always wanted to be a broadcaster, and he’s one of my influences.

@KeithE4 3 года назад

Not only is Benetti the greatest Sox play-caller since Harry Caray, but he also has a great gig at ESPN doing college sports. He can write his own ticket because he's that good. Jerry Reinsdorf had better sign him to a very long term deal.

Jason is the best! Lucky to have him in Chicago. All I hear is his ABILITY. Keep yup the great work.

@Chicagoathletics 2 года назад

Jason and Steve by far two of the best right now. I’ve been a Sox/baseball fan for a long time now and I truly enjoy listening to the White Sox broadcast team.

@kathleenellis9057 7 месяцев назад

We're going to miss Jason here on Chicago's south side. Thanks for the memories and best of luck in the Detroit organization!

@timothyclaffey9138 2 года назад

JB with or without CP is the best in the business bar none. The voice, the timing, the command of the moments big and small, the knowledge of the game, the graciousness to his partner Steve Stone and more than anything the natural warmth he exudes with every word he utters. And he does football and basketball! A guaranteed Hall Of Famer if there ever was one!

@aidangertson3190 3 года назад

Wow. Never knew JB has CP. Makes me, someone who also has CP, feel inspired to chase my dreams too.

@easyduzit9200 10 месяцев назад

@jetsamperes5762 7 месяцев назад

Detroit is a city that is always an underdog, mocked, knocked down, an easy punchline. 'Detroit vs Everybody'. There's more to us than that. Welcome to Detroit Jason. Somewhere Ernie Harwell is beaming that wide grin - we can't wait to hear you in that booth.

@weathp 7 месяцев назад

@salvadorrojas985 7 месяцев назад

As someone with cerebral palsy, his story is awesome

@alpineinc1 3 года назад

Mets fan but diehard MLB fan, and I get MLB.TV to watch other games as well; Benetti/Stone are among the top TV teams in the sport. A considerable personal struggle, but he’s transcended it to become one of the best in his profession

@duchessofessex2550 4 года назад

Jason is one of the best sports announcers period. Yes, CP is only a small part of his story.

Wouldn’t mind a game a year in Lane Stadium called by JB. Awesome announcer and love this story

@stevemiller4292 6 месяцев назад

Jason has eyes and a voice. But more importantly, he has love for sports. I had no idea he had those physical disabilities. All I know is that he is elite at calling them.

@semipenguin 4 года назад

That's awesome. This past season I got to go to Wrigley Field for the first time. Next season I'd like to go see a White Sox game.

@semipenguin 4 года назад

@Skippy the AlienThat's cool. I look forward to seeing a White Sox game next season. When I went to Wrigley, I sat out in center field. It was neat. Next time I was thinking about sitting in the upper deck 😊

@kidreall9186 Год назад

Great Story!

Frustrating to be a Sox fan and live just outside the range of being able to enjoy this man's supreme talent. Thanks, Scott, and Jason. Great story.

He does a great Sean McDonough impersonation. He's good announcer

@pastortimhahn4343 Год назад

As a Cub fan, I despised the Sox when I was growing up because I despised Hawk Harrelson. Jason Benetti has changed my attitude about the Sox. He’s not an obnoxious homer and he and Steve Stone blend well together. I sense that Steve Stone is much more relaxed in the booth with Benetti than he ever was with Hawk!

@landit 4 года назад

I’m a Cubs fan. I watch the Soxs to listen to JB. He & SS are a better team than JD & LK.

@michaelhogg324 3 года назад

Hey Jennifer, I have to say working with Jason when he calls games for ESPN is a treat cause he is a FANTASTIC young man and a great pxp announcer. I will say this though Len and Jim are good also.

@MrCubsfan3 2 года назад

Now y’all have LK *and* JB!

@hifijohn Год назад

a million times better than the other announcer the sox had.

@suzanneschulz8479 4 года назад

Cute man!

@willieholmes1483 Год назад

Incidentally, Harry Carey in Chicago began on the south side at Comiskey. When he was there, Cub fans couldn’t stand him. He was also more coherent back then too.

@MFPhoto1 Год назад

And before the Sox, he was in Oakland, and before that in St. Louis.

@willieholmes1483 Год назад

@@MFPhoto1, I didn’t know about him being in Oakland.

@MFPhoto1 Год назад

@@willieholmes1483 Well, it was only for one season, as I recall. I just remembered this one: During Caray's last year with the Sox, 1981, there was a players' strike. After the strike was settled and the players went back to work, Caray talked the Sox into hiring Lou Brock as the color commentator for the rest of the season. I was pretty impressed by Brock. No, he did not have a good announcer's voice, but few of the classic, great announcers did. What I liked about Brock is that he made no comments which were irrelevant to the game. He would also break down many of the plays explaining why the fielder did what he did. Unfortunately, after that season Brock was fired after Carey went to the Cubs.

@MFPhoto1 Год назад

Harry Carry at Wrigley Field? What about Jack Brickhouse?
