My favorite Oriole was Joe Angel. He's been the only constant through the winning and losing. Before that, it was Jon Miller. I also don't mind Jim Hunter. Sure, he's very positive no matter what. But nothing says "Orioles baseball" like hearing Jim Hunter's voice and a terrible Schmidt Old Time commercial.
It's really not fair to compare Kevin Brown to anyone, as he's inheriting the position of someone who had a strong bond with his audience built over decades. No way to have that when you first start out.
He does seem very personable, and I thought he had good rapport with Steve M. I'm keeping an open mind.
