PA voice 'played it straight,' but is still known for his introducitons of San Diego sports standouts Enzo Hernandez and Juli Veee
For nearly two decades, John DeMott was one of the most recognizable voices in San Diego sports circles.
“I was 24 and had no idea where my career was heading,” DeMott said years ago. “It just sort of took off with the Padres.” “I take public address announcing very seriously,” said longtime Padres’ play-by-play announcer Ted Leitner, “because that is the first thing I did. I’ve always loved it. And I’ve always been a critic of PA announcers who scream and believe they’re who the fans came to hear.
“I have some good news and bad news,” Kroc began. “The good news is that you loyal fans have outstripped Los Angeles. They had 31,000 on opening night. We have nearly 40,000.”“Get him out of here,” Kroc screamed into the live microphone. “Take him to jail.”The crowd reacted with cheers. DeMott regained control of the microphone after Padres President Buzzie Bavasi entered the PA booth. A day later, Commissioner Bowie Kuhn ordered Kroc to issue a public apology.
