Dick Enberg has passed away

[Thomas]

Incredibly sad news: Dick Enberg’s wife Barbara just told me Dick died his morning in LaJolla. Thinks it was a heart attack. Such a legend. Such a gentleman. There are no words.

RIP Dick. 

You and Drysdale were my introduction to Angels baseball.

RIP, class act all the way.

Touch ‘em all!

[Slegnaac]

RIP Dick 

Loved listening to him do the UCLA games as well as the Angels games.

Because Pop worked at KMPC, I once had the privilege of sitting in the press booth during a Sunday game and watch Dick and Dave do their magic.

Truly a great sports broadcaster.  Lots of great memories listening to him call Angel games.

[Second Base]

One of the greats. Loved hearing his take on the Padres.

RIP Dick

Condolences to his family and many friends.

Will miss his legendary voice.

[Lhalo]

Such a huge part of the history of the club. His voice and talent will truly be missed. RIP

[eligrba4ever]

And the halo shines tonight. Rest in peace, Mr. Enberg. Touch 'em all one more time. Oh, my.

[tomsred]

Incredibly sad, he was my favorite Angels broadcaster.  RIP Dick.

So many memories: the Ryan no-hitters, Wright's no-hitter, Ryan’s 383rd K in 1973, the Packers/Rams blocked punt game the same day as the Queen Mary docking, Merlin Olsen’s last Rams home game, and for years NFL games and Wimbledon

And then years later, a sort of sound alike appears in Al Conin.

R.I.P. Mr. Oh My.

In tribute, Ohtani’s gloss: OhMyTani

[ten ocho recon scout]

He was before my time, but you cant be an Angels fan without adoring this guy.

RIP

Thanks for the memories, AO. That '67 season was still the greatest in LA Rams history, at least in my memory. We beat Green Bay and the Unitas-led Colts that year. 

Most of the "Oh Mys" that I remember from Enberg were during UCLA basketball games of the Alcindor era. 

So many idols are passing, now. 

Think of how lucky we were to be sports fans in the 60s and 70s. We could listen to the greatest sportscasters of all time in Scully and Chick Hearn, along with Ram and Angel and UCLA games with Dick Enberg. What a time!!!!

That was a fun time to listen to the different sporting events in SoCal.   Have to add Bob Miller to that group, as he started working in 1973.

Enberg will touch 'em all!

RIP

 

[Dick Enberg]

oh my! a legend as moved on!  I grew up listening to him every night on the radio. One of the best memories I'll ever have. A sad day indeed!

[papawealey]

Oh my. The passing of an icon. Godspeed Mr. Enberg, thank you for the memories.

[Stradling]

I barely remember him calling games.  I was so young that I didn’t know whether he was good or not.  Obviously over the years I’ve heard him announce other teams and other sports and later realized how great he was.  Such an easy voice to listen too. Like many of you, my brother grew up on Enberg and Drysdale and feel like they were the best.  RIP.
