Enberg retired in October 2016 after a 60-year career - and countless calls of 'Oh my!' in describing a play that nearly defied description.

He also was well-known for his baseball catchphrase of 'Touch 'em all' for home runs.

Raised in Armada, Michigan, Enberg's first radio job was actually as a radio station custodian in Mount Pleasant, Michigan, when he was a junior at Central Michigan.
