As Tim McCarver points out in his Foreword, Chris Wheeler is accomplished at telling stories. From his first experience behind a mike at Penn State in the 1960s to his reflections on the Phillies ring ceremony at the Citizens Bank Park on April 8, 2009, Wheels can paint word pictures like few broadcasters in any sport. His View from the Booth encompasses memorable portraits of people and places you re invited to share, all the highs and lows of nearly four decades with the never-boring Philadelphia Phillies
