Okay, so I’ve been seeing this name, Scott Franzke, pop up everywhere lately, especially since I’m a huge Phillies fan. I figured, let’s dig in and see what this guy’s all about. I mean, I hear his voice on the radio all the time, but I wanted to go a bit deeper.
First Steps: The Obvious Googling
First things first, I fired up Google. You know, the usual suspects – Wikipedia, the Phillies’ official site, maybe some news articles. Just getting the basic background, like where he came from, how long he’s been broadcasting, that kind of stuff.
- Found his bio, pretty standard stuff.
- Learned he’s been with the Phillies since like, 2006, which is way longer than I thought!
Getting a Feel for His Style
Next, I tuned into a few game broadcasts. I wanted to really listen to how he calls a game. I mean, anyone can say “ball” or “strike,” but it’s the personality, the energy, that makes a good broadcaster. I payed real extra attention, even jotted down some notes in the process.
Exploring Fan Opinions
Then, I headed over to some Phillies forums and fan pages. You know, places where people are really passionate about the team. I wanted to see what other fans thought of him. Was he generally liked? Were there any common criticisms? This is important because the fan base is the final boss of the Phillies Broadcaster.
Diving into Social Media
After that, I checked out social media. Twitter, mostly, maybe a little Facebook. I searched his name, looked for mentions, anything to get a sense of his interaction with fans, his personality off-air, that kind of thing. It’s always interesting to see the “real” person behind the voice, it is!
- Saw a lot of fans quoting his calls.
- Found some funny memes, always a good sign.
Checking for Interviews
Finally, I looked for any interviews he might have done. Podcasts, radio shows, anything where he was talking about his career, his approach to broadcasting, his love for the game. These are usually great places to find that cool information, the juicy details!
And that was it! It was a simple process, nothing too intense, to understand who Scott Franzke really is. I feel like i learned a lot, even if it was common sence kind of things.
