...grew up following my dad [legendary broadcaster Jack Buck] around. As a kid, I couldn't get enough of the ballpark. I couldn't get enough of traveling with him or being around a major-league team. It's always been kind of a part of my DNA. I don't know that I've ever looked at baseball like a purely casual fan.

Will Ev and Biz sell to Google early or play long ball? (They have already turned down a reported $500 million from Facebook.) It's an interesting question...
