The longtime Tiger radio announcer is doing more than calling broadcasts in this league, he is actually playing! Yes, the guru of "the art of pitching", a man who knows of no town that is not a 'nice area', is back in his catching gear and helping (or hurting!) the 1968 Tigers

50+ years after his playing career, Price is still behind the plate
(although from a much higher angle)

Price has been filling in once in a while for probably-should-be-a-Hall-Of-Famer Bill Freehan, but his contributions have almost all been on defense (3e5 with a +0 arm). He has just one hit in 36 at bats for a .028 average, OBP of .103, slugging .111, and OPS .214. He did finally get a hit though, using the "ol' buggywhip" to crack a home run off of 1961 Frank Lary!
