Summary

ESPN and Chicago White Sox announcer Jason Benetti admits he may have shrieked the first time he heard the WVU Mountaineer blast his musket inside the Coliseum.

That story is just one of many that Benetti shares in an entertaining and laugh-filled episode of Three Guys Before The Game.

The humble Benetti shares his climb in broadcasting and details how he's been able to use his diagnosis of cerebral palsy to educate and motivate others.

It's a fun and wide-ranging discussion with one of sports broadcasting's rising stars.

Join Brad and Tony on Thursday when they're joined by West Virginia athletic director Shane Lyons.
