Rangers GM Jon Daniels Asks the Tough Questions
On Monday night, with regular television play-by-play broadcaster Dave Barnett having fallen ill, radio broadcaster Steve Busby joined usual colorman Tom Grieve in the Fox Sports Southwest booth. That left universally beloved Texas Rangers broadcaster Eric Nadel by himself on KESN radio.
Nadel called the first and second innings on his own and then was joined by Rangers GM Jon Daniels for the third through fifth innings.
Daniels, demonstrating the sort of wide-ranging curiosity that has allowed him to construct a perennial World Series contender, took the opportunity to ask Nadel the toughest of tough questions — namely, how the latter planned to evacuate his bladder if and when the situation called for it.

Luckily that Texas heat means that he’ll sweat most of it out before it reaches his bladder.
