Best Announcer
Ryan Lefebvre
The Royals have lost at least 100 games in three of the last four seasons. So for the team's broadcasters, maintaining an appropriate level of enthusiasm is a challenge. Radio voice Ryan Lefebvre finds just the right balance: He's upbeat without sounding oblivious to the horror. The son of a former big-league player and manager, Lefebvre played the game with a high degree of skill at the University of Minnesota, but listeners seldom hear of his own exploits or those of his father, Jim; the focus stays on the Royals, dreadful as they may be. He's not the most vivid scenarist, and the baseball wisdom he passes along is too conventional (a loved one needs to put a copy of Moneyball under his Christmas tree), but Lefebvre is doing his part to make Kansas City summers a bit more tolerable.
