November 9, 2004 WGN announces the hiring of Bob Brenly to announce Cubs games for the 2005 season.
A great major league catcher, a World Series winning manager and a great Cubs announcer. Bob Brenly had a great run as Cubs announcer, teaming with Len Kasper for 7 years on WGN TV. Brenly took his years as a tough catcher and manager into the booth with him as he was a very outspoken about the Cubs and their poor play or players not playing the game the "right way", not hustling or just conducting themselves as professional major league players.
