BTW when announcers mimic other announcers tag lines you know they get much respect. It happens with Mike Battaglia. I often hear announcers using his “ gaining ground “ and “ those two are together” lines more frequently these days. Mike is probably one of the top 10 callers of all time IMO. When a new race caller is introduced to a track it makes me watch the race much differently. With all these retirements over the last few years the tracks don’t seem the same. BTW You don’t hear people mention Phil Saltzman too often but yet he was a great race caller.at Calder...” and their not gonna get him today “..RIP Phil
