Altoona Curve's Broadcaster Quits In The Middle Of Game

This is a strange one regarding Altoona Curve broadcaster Dan Zangrilli:

Zangrilli called the first three innings of Tuesday's game against Erie at Blair County Ballpark, then went off the air, as usual, for the middle innings. His assistant, Mike Passanisi, always handles the middle innings of home broadcasts, and occasionally he stays on for the remainder of the contest when Zangrilli would be handling other duties.

Passanisi stayed on the air for the remainder of the game, and nothing was mentioned about Zangrilli.

"I started the game, and then I wound up -- it became apparent that we weren't going to be able to move forward any longer," Zangrilli said.

 

I'm sure this is Bob Nutting's fault.
