Talk:Waite Hoyt
Waite Hoyt described himself as a "fastball pitcher". Made his Major League Debut with the New York Yankees at the age of 18. After his playing days were over, he turned to broadcasting and was one of the first, if not the first, former ballplayers to be trusted in the "booth". Hoyt broadcast Cincinnati Reds games on radio from 1942-1965. His "rain delay" stories are legendary in Cincinnati. He recorded two albums ("Waite Hoyt In The Rain"). He would talk all things baseball, but especially interesting were his stories about the 1920s New York Yankees where he played with Babe Ruth.
