Dick Bremer to miss first Twins Home Opener in 40 years
Dick Bremer, in his 40th season as the television voice of the Minnesota Twins, will not be announcing the Twins' Home Opener on Friday against the Houston Astros.
Bremer indicated Thursday that he has tested positive for COVID.
"After more than 3 years of successfully bobbing and weaving around it, '19 got me in '23. I've tested positive and will miss my first home opener in 40 years. Looking forward to returning to the booth soon," Bremer announced.
Replacing Bremer on the Bally Sports North call will be Twins radio play-by-play announcer Cory Provus. Kris Atteberry will work alongside Dan Gladden on the radio call, according to Skor North's Judd Zulgad.
Provus has been on the Twins radio call since coming over from the Brewers in 2011 and does play-by-play for Big Ten Network's football and basketball coverage.
