    Milo called Henry Aaron's 715th home run. He was the voice of the Braves when they first moved from Milwaukee. Wikipedia's article mentions that WGST in Atlanta carried White Sox games in the Sixties, which I was not aware of...

    Good ol' Milo! Still calling baseball down here in Houston for the Astros. I'm guessing though his departure from Chicago wasn't pleasant.....oh the things he used to say about Harry Carey et al ("No one wants to hear some old guy make a fool of himself trying to sing 'Take Me out to the Ball Game'"). A great guy but apparently somewhat bitter towards Chicago.
