The Toronto Sun praises the Blue Jay analyst as someone whose keen insights has added to his on air work, and really matured in the role on Sportsnet baseball broadcasts.
Siddall knows he was lucky to be paired with people like Jerry Howarth, Buck Martinez and Dan Shulman.
“Filling in for (Pat Tabler) I was working with Buck, which was great, and then starting to do (TV game work) more full time and I’m with Dan Shulman? Come on. I’ve been very fortunate as someone who had zero broadcasting experience to work with guys like that, some of the best in the business.”
Speaking of Dan Shulman, the dad slips back into the TV seat occupied by his son for the Cleveland series that begins on Tuesday. Ben Shulman will return to his radio role, opposite Chris Leroux.
