After 46 years, 1 final broadcast for legendary baseball sportscaster, UNC alum Marty Brennaman

Posted Sep 26, 2019
And then there was one. After 46 years in the broadcast booth, Thursday will be the final game for Marty Brennaman. The 77-year-old broadcaster known for his pull-no-punch descriptions and his "this one belongs to the Reds" signoff is retiring after 46 years with the Cincinnati Reds -- and no, he won't be coming back to the microphone again.
