Had heard this fellow call a race or two in the past, but didn't catch his name, but IMO he's one of the best in the business. After listening to him and Essex call the Show-Me, it reminded me of the oh-so-smooth flow and continuity of the old MRN announcers for NASCAR back in the day. I like listening to Essex, but TB seemed to have a calming effect on him that made Essex better. Their yin-yang (TB = calm, Essex = ebullient) personalities worked well together, and showed how commentators can actually add to a race.
I think a lot of announcers (Dewayne??) would be well served to listen to Trenton Berry and try to emulate his style.
