San Francisco Giants and ESPN Sunday Night Baseball announcer Jon Miller was named the 2010 Ford Frick award winner according to the Associated Press. Miller has broadcast games for the Baltimore Orioles, Boston Red Sox, Texas Rangers, Oakland Athletics and San Francisco Giants. He has also worked with Joe Morgan on ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball for 20 years.
"I told my wife I'll never forget Cartagena, Colombia," said Miller, who joins former Giants broadcasters Lon Simmons and Russ Hodges as winners of the award. "The first thing I thought of was Lon Simmons and Russ Hodges, who taught me the game as a kid growing up. It really is kind of astounding to me because Russ and Lon were larger-than-life people to me. My idols."
