I never thought I would say this for short-term wants, but yesterday I stumbled across this video in a baseball recommendation.

Here is the link.

Really does hold-up well. Mel Allen was the announcer. When I saw that video, my first thought was OOTP.

A couple respected announcers retired in the last few years like Joe Angel and Fred Manfra, who used to co-call the games together for Baltimore, and it would be great to get a team like that to do the PBP.

I know this is an aspirational wish, which seems odd after I mentioned that I want OOTP to focus on the big three....the AI, 3D, and game engine, but hey, perhaps in a future version.

I agree. This seems pretty doable. I listen to the computerized voice, but it's just not the same.

I'd be okay if it were an unknown voice actor that could do a decent job if it's a matter of cost. To me, I think this just adds a level of immersion, which I feel ties in to the 3D stuff.
