Daron Sutton has been the Diamondbacks? television play-by-play announcer since 2007, but last week he was removed from the team?s broadcasts without explanation.
Senior vice president of communications Josh Rawitch said only that ?we?ve made a change in the broadcast-talent lineup? and ?Daron will be taking some time off.?
Dan Bickley of the Arizona Republic finds the whole situation very odd, writing: ?You can?t remove a play-by-play guy out of the broadcast booth during the middle of the season without explanation, from a team with great television ratings, at a time when the Diamondbacks are finally finding a groove, and expect muted compliance from the masses.?
And yet the Diamondbacks have done just that, with managing general partner Ken Kendrick declining to comment yesterday except to say it was ?a personal matter? and ?I suspect the situation will become clear soon enough.?
Adding to the drama is that Sutton is scheduled to work the FOX national game Saturday, which is Diamondbacks versus Brewers.
