One Less Bad Announcer

Chip Caray will no longer be announcing baseball on TBS.

In a memo sent to company employees, David Levy, the president of Turner Sports, wrote on Monday: "Since the end of this year's M.L.B. playoffs, we've had several discussions with Chip Caray regarding 2010 and beyond. Both sides have agreed that now is the right time for Turner Sports and Chip to move ahead on different paths."

Before you jump for joy and think that the baseball gods have blessed you, remember that Joe Morgan, Tim McCarver, and Joe Buck still have jobs broadcasting baseball, and TBS still employs this guy:

Trinity/Scott County re-cap

Posted: 30 Nov 2009 01:55 PM PST

INEZ, Ky. –Trinity senior Josh Sewell scored 25 points, including 11 points during a key 13-2 run, to propel Trinity to a 51-49 win over Scott County in the 2009 Fast Lane Classic in Inez, Kentucky at Sheldon Clark High School.

"Josh (Sewell) showed how special of a player he can be for us," said head coach Mike Szabo. "He made some big plays for us today when we needed it. He took over the game in the third quarter when we fell behind and put us in a position to win the game."

With his performance in wins over Bowling Green (No. 14 by Louisville Courier-Journal and No. 13 by Lexington Herald Leader) and No. 2 Scott County in two preseason scrimmages, Sewell has established himself as a top candidate for the Mr. Basketball award in the state of Kentucky. Sewell had 18 points in a Nov. 14 win over the Purples. He finished the preseason with an average of 21.5 points per game.

For his performance, he was awarded the game's most valuable player by the host school.
"I really liked the way we played with great intensity tonight," said Szabo. "I am proud of the way we competed against a very good team from Scott County. We did a great job of eliminating their transition game and handled their press well."

"We are really excited about Friday night and the chance to open the new season. I look forward to seeing a huge student turnout."

Trailing 27-20, Trinity went on a 13-2 run over the final 6:01 of the third quarter to take a 33-29 lead. The Shamrocks would trail just once the remainder of the ballgame at 43-41.

Sewell scored 10 of Trinity's 17 points during the first half before scoring 15 in the second half.
Senior guard Daniel Corbett added six assists compared to just two turnovers against the full-court pressure of Scott County. He added four steals and also hit a key three-point field goal late in the fourth quarter, his only basket of the game.

The Cardinals had received attention in several national polls entering the season.
It was the second straight day that the Scott County Athletic Department had suffered a loss to the Shamrocks. The Trinity Football team registered a 42-13 win over the Cardinals on Friday night at Trinity's Marshall Stadium to advance to the 2009 KHSAA Class AAAAAA Commonwealth Gridiron Bowl at Western Kentucky University's Houchens/L.T. Smith Stadium.
