I'm sure 0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:35.960 people felt this about hearing the news about your dad yesterday. 0:03:36.400 --> 0:03:41.080 Is broadcasters connect generations and they are the soundtracks just 0:03:41.200 --> 0:03:44.920 certain stages of our lives. And Mike Cruco, as good 0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:48.880 as anybody in Bay Area or in sports media history, 0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:51.840 has done that for Giants fans, for generations. I mean, 0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:53.280 I we'll go through it and we'll play some of 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.960 the great sounds. But yeah, I got two that immediately 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:58.400 came to mind, and I mentioned this one all the time. 0:03:58.680 --> 0:04:00.400 The first one that comes to mind all for me 0:04:00.440 --> 0:04:03.720 and my Cruco is I was taught baseball by people 0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:06.080 in my life. And usually that's how baseball goes right. 0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:08.240 So oftentimes the first sported kid plays a little league or 0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:10.560 soccer something like that. You're a little kid t ball 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:12.160 something like that, so you start to get aware of 0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:14.320 what become aware of what baseball is at a young age. 0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:16.000 But you got a dad or a mom, or an 0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:18.520 uncle or a grandparent. And I've had so many connections 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:21.159 in my life with members of my family who are 0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:23.599 either still with us or no longer with us that 0:04:23.720 --> 0:04:26.200 taught me Giants baseball and taught me baseball, and that 0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:27.160 we still text about. 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:28.800 We've got family group chats and whatnot. 0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:30.880 But when the Giants won the twenty ten World Series, 0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:32.760 I told you, I took the day off work and 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:36.040 I went to They really needed me at that barista bar. 0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:38.080 But I said, no, no, no, I've got to, I said, 0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:40.680 north from a espresso bar in Stonestown Mall. It's like, no, no, no, 0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:42.760 I've got to. I've got to be there for the Giants. 0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:43.880 They need me, you know what I mean. So I 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:44.200 went out. 0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:45.479 I didn't even walk the parade rounde. 0:04:45.480 --> 0:04:47.480 My buddy Ryan and I went yeah, and we went 0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:49.320 down near the we were at City Hall like right 0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:50.800 where it was gonna end. And do we stood there 0:04:50.839 --> 0:04:53.080 like six thirty seven in the morning until it got 0:04:53.080 --> 0:04:57.200 there and the speech has happened, didn't pee all day, tired, thirsty, 0:04:57.920 --> 0:05:00.000 it was exhausting. And then my Kruger gets up there 0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:03.000 and he says, you know, somebody in your life taught 0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:05.400 you the Good Book of Giants Baseball, and so it's 0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:07.919 your job now now that you know that feeling, to 0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:09.880 pass that on. It's your job now to give that 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.159 story to somebody else. And when you tell that story, 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:15.280 you tell them we're San Francisco, We're the Giants. It's 0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:16.880 like one of my I got chills thinking about it now. 0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:19.760 It's one of my all time favorite moments as a fan. 0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:21.680 And the other one that comes to mind is the 0:05:21.680 --> 0:05:23.400 two thousand and two season, the first season me and 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:26.240 MAMASUSI spent together that culminates, of course, in the Game 0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:29.760 seven loss. And I remember the night they won the pennant. 0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:31.159 We were coming back. My dad was doing a show 0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:34.280 it like at Harvey's and Tahoe. We're driving back from there, 0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:36.680 so we're listening to the beginning of the game of 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:38.920 Game five of the two thousand and two NLCS and 0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:41.039 I on Cambre we're listening to the whole thing and 0:05:41.080 --> 0:05:42.920 we get home probably about the seventh inning, and it's 0:05:42.920 --> 0:05:43.880 like a one run game. 0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:45.240 The Giants are dueling. 0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:47.839 It's Kirk Reader up against Matt Morris, and Matt Morris 0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:50.040 is grinding and then he gets pulled for Steve Klein. 0:05:50.120 --> 0:05:52.159 But I remember we're watching that on TV, and I 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:54.359 went back that night and went back and listened to 0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:56.920 the Giants broadcast. They played the midnight replay and all that, 0:05:57.279 --> 0:05:59.880 and you hear the final call. And one of my 0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:03.320 favorite moments of that final call is the organic nature 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:06.920 in which Mike Kruka feels and hears, watches that moment 0:06:07.000 --> 0:06:08.040 and jumps in on the call. 0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:08.960 Like I love when. 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:12.919 Broadcasters have something happen that they naturally themselves just react to. 0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:16.520 Not like you know, with respect to Jim Nantz. He 0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:18.400 goes on with the morning show all the time. Yeah, 0:06:18.440 --> 0:06:19.920 And I remember one time when he was calling the 0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:23.200 National Championship for March Madison. He said it was the 0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:25.719 it might have been unc or somebody goes one shot 0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:27.840 for the championship and he goes and then you know, Murph, 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:29.960 I just laid out I knew that would be my call, 0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:30.320 and I had. 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:31.680 Bla blah blah blah, and I was like, all right, 0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:33.000 so you had a can call. 0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:34.720 That's all fine. It's okay to have can stuff to 0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:37.360 make sure the moment is felled. But you also got 0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:38.880 to know when to breathe and when to sit back. 0:06:38.960 --> 0:06:41.960 But that moment when when John Miller calls a line 0:06:42.000 --> 0:06:44.120 drive base hit right field, Here comes bell rounding third 0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:46.440 headed home, here comes a throw it's offline, and you 0:06:46.480 --> 0:06:49.159 hear Creut say we're going yeah. He just yells it 0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:52.360 with his excited, with his in the squat type attitude. 0:06:52.360 --> 0:06:54.159 And I'm like that moment for me, and I remember 0:06:54.160 --> 0:06:56.880 people nationally were like, Mike Kruco ruined Joan Miller's Hall 0:06:56.920 --> 0:06:59.240 of Fame call, and I'm like, bro, I don't think 0:06:59.279 --> 0:07:02.360 you understand that the joy in which Mike Cruco watches 0:07:02.360 --> 0:07:06.400 and sees the game of baseball, John Newton fully gonna 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:08.599 choose to call a pennant Mike Cruco, Dude. That's what 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:10.760 made that amazing is we got Kreuk on the radio 0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:13.600 during the broadcast because it's on Fox. It's Joe Buck 0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:15.840 and Tim McCarver on the call, but you get John 0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:19.320 Miller said, around Mike Cruk are going, we're calling and 0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:21.560 the Giants and one in the pennant he's just reacting. 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.000 And so I you know, you talk about voices of 0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:26.960 your childhood or soundtracks of your childhood. I don't think 0:07:27.440 --> 0:07:29.040 And we all love kaipe Kit this who should be 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:30.240 a Hall of Famer too. And this is not to 0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:33.679 compare it all, but I don't think there's any better 0:07:33.840 --> 0:07:37.000 steward of Giants baseball, and with the brand of Giants 0:07:37.040 --> 0:07:41.440 baseball has been since the time he put on the uniform, 0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:45.360 became a broadcaster, gave it to the fans, preaches the 0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:48.280 book of Giants Baseball and is hoping that he's leaving 0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:49.720 it in a better place. And I don't think there's 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:52.960 any question that we are better baseball fans, that we 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:55.240 are better Giants fans, that we are better stewards of 0:07:55.240 --> 0:07:58.280 the game, and and understand what it means to be 0:07:58.320 --> 0:07:59.160 a Giant. 0:07:58.920 --> 0:08:01.080 Better because of what Mike Creco has brought us. 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:02.960 So while it is a sad thing to think, man, 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:05.080 we're not going to get crook anymore, we are so 0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:08.560 lucky that we've gotten this many decades and generations out 0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:11.480 of a guy who understands through and through and really 0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:14.240 probably branded and taught us what it meant through and 0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:16.280 through to be a San Francisco Giant and to be 0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:18.120 a Giants fan. And he I don't think he has 0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:19.800 any problem saying he's the biggest fan there is. 0:08:19.920 --> 0:08:20.680 Oh yeah, And I mean. 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:22.600 He's a ballplayer, and the dude is a fan and 0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:26.800 we are we're better for having him, and we're worse 0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:28.800 for having him having him leave the game. But I'm 0:08:28.840 --> 0:08:30.600 thrilled he gets to do it on his own terms. 0:08:31.000 --> 0:08:32.920 And uh and I'm thrilled that we got as much 0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:35.400 time listening to Mike Cruko as we did because again, 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:39.320 maybe no better person, player, coach, manager in the history 0:08:39.600 --> 0:08:41.920 of this organization has carried that flag better than Mike 0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:43.000 Creco And I'll stand by that. 0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:45.800 No, absolutely, dude, well said, and just the catchphrases over 0:08:45.840 --> 0:08:50.080 the years, you know, grab some pine, meat, blow and cheese. Dude, 0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:53.319 that's not my favorite, Like ending every review with Murphy 0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:56.600 Marcus at a bed like it's he's just you know, 0:08:56.760 --> 0:08:58.840 he's cool, Like he's cool in the same way that 0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:01.160 Tom Tolbert is cool. A guy that used to play 0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:03.480 the game, but knows how to break it down. And 0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:06.280 there's been so many great analysts through the years, sorry 0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:09.559 play by play guys that are characters like Hawk Harrelson 0:09:09.760 --> 0:09:14.000 or Bob Yucker or Harry Carey. But I think Mike 0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:16.040 Kruco he probably could have done play by play, but 0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:18.199 he had a great play by play guy and Dwayne Kuiper, 0:09:18.480 --> 0:09:22.040 But Mike Kruco, I think in the same way that 0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:26.520 Bill Walton was the John Madden of basketball, like equal 0:09:26.600 --> 0:09:29.320 parts eccentric but also could break to break the game 0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:31.960 down just expertly. I think it's the same thing with 0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:34.400 my Cruco, where you know, some things are goofy, some 0:09:34.400 --> 0:09:35.800 things are quirky, but he knows. 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:36.360 How to talk ball. 0:09:36.760 --> 0:09:38.559 And I have some stories about Kruco hanging out with 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:40.440 him in the booth that I'll tell later. But yeah, man, 0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:42.520 I'm gonna miss him on the mic. He is Giants baseball. 0:09:42.520 --> 0:09:45.640 I think of Crook and Kuipe, and obviously those guys 0:09:45.640 --> 0:09:47.680 deserve to go into Cooper's town together, and I hope 0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:48.480 that happens pretty soon. 0:09:48.480 --> 0:09:50.679 Here dude started to interrupt, But we'll get back into this 0:09:50.720 --> 0:09:52.000 because we had a lot of curt stuff to get to. 0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:53.400 We've got a lot of sound and things to talk about, 0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:54.800 and I do want to hear from the callers on this. 0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:55.240 Dude. 0:09:55.240 --> 0:09:56.520 A lot of people are really pissed at how he 0:09:56.559 --> 0:09:57.160 started the show. 0:09:57.960 --> 0:09:58.600 I don't really care. 0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:01.640 Yeah, I did fine.

Yeah, I mean it's not as evil 0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:10.360 as you know, fired a guy with cancer, but hey, 0:10:10.400 --> 0:10:12.600 here we are.

I think 0:14:35.800 --> 0:14:38.280 that's what everybody wants in a broadcaster. That's what made 0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:40.640 John Madden so good is because he could talk ball 0:14:40.720 --> 0:14:42.960 with you, but also he was goofy and funny, and 0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:45.480 he's just kind of breaking the game down like' at 0:14:45.520 --> 0:14:47.040 a bar having a cold.
