I was saddended to learn that Angels' announcer Rory Markas has died of an apparent heart attack at the age of 54. I don't know how well known he was around the country but he was a fixture on the sports scene here in Southern California. He was the play-by-play man for the Angels. He did USC Trojans' basketball. He was a sports anchor on the news. He did it all. He was very popular. This is very sad news.
