The link works fine, but I almost wish it hadn't. As a wee tad in Washington, I listened to Wolff and his senior announcing partner, Arch MacDonald, doing Senators' games on the radio. MacDonald was a man of few words, laconic and matter-of-factly. Wolff was far more exciting. Never heard any of his interviews with the likes of Cobb, Speaker and Ruth but heard many with such long-forgotten Senators as Al Kozar, Carden Gillenwater, Mark Christman, Mickey Grasso, etc.

Wish you guys would stop reminding me how old I am!
