Does this weather have anyone else dreaming of baseball season? Opening day February 14!!!
I have to admit that I'd be dreaming of UConn baseball opening day if it were a raging blizzard outside, but then again I'm a bit of a hardcore nutcase who is lacking a few marbles. Also have to admit that thoughts of UConn baseball opening day cross my mind during the summer and fall months as well (especially after the Alumni Day game in late September). Once we get by the Christmas rush, at this time of year I start pining for Chris Jones interviews with the players and the coaching staff. That's it, I'll just blame this odd disease of mine on Chris Jones!

I'm guessing this is the first time ever tickets will be sold for a UConn baseball game in Storrs.

One would expect that with students back in school, preseason news and interviews with the players and coaches to pick up. Bring on Chris Jones and his videos, plus his microphone!
Chris Jones may be busy until opening day. I saw part of a Vermont home game on ESPN plus a few weeks ago, and I'm fairly certain it was his voice doing the play by play (although I didn't stay with the game long enough to hear the announcers use their names).
Different announcers are being used for internet and television broadcasts. For instance, Adam Giardino did play by play for the NESN broadcast of the Maine game in Bridgeport, and Chris Jones happened to do an in studio between period interview for that game. I kind of think Jones is just pitching in and helping out before the baseball preseason starts in earnest. Anyway, considering UConn has only one home game before the start of the the UConn baseball game on February 14 (I suspect SNY will be using their own announcers for the coming weekend tourney in Bridgeport), I doubt this will really impact the preseason baseball interviews that he usually conducts.
Sorry. I wasn't clear. The game on which I thought I heard him was a George Washington at Vermont basketball game on ESPN plus on New Year's eve day.
If past seasons are any indication the interviews will be out 1-2 weeks before the first gameConsidering that Chris Jones is the SID for UConn baseball, I fully expect that we will be seeing the usual interviews that he conducts in the preseason.
