List of Arizona Diamondbacks broadcasters
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The primary TV play voice is Thom Brennaman, who also broadcasts for FOX. Brennaman was the TV announcer for the Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds (along with his father Marty Brennaman) before being hired by Diamondbacks founder Jerry Colangelo in 1996, two years before the team would begin play. Brennaman left the club in 2006 to rejoin his father to work Reds games once again, and the Diamondbacks hired Daron Sutton, a former Milwaukee Brewers and Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim announcer, to be the lead television announcer.
