David Feldman is not somebody who sports fans see. He's not somebody who sports fans hear very often. But his fingerprints are all over a lot of the live sporting events that are viewed by thousands, if not millions.
In Episode 9 of the "Life Around the Seams" podcast, our guest is David Feldman. Not the David Feldman who is an on-air host for NBC Sports Bay Area, but the David Feldman who is a producer for numerous live sporting events across multiple networks, and an official scorer for Major League Baseball games. We discuss growing up in the left field bleachers of the Oakland Coliseum with a diverse group of characters, how a chance encounter with then-A's play-by-play announcer Greg Papa led to a prediction that launched his career, and we trace how he rose through the ranks in the production truck.
We also learn how Reggie Jackson learned to trust him, get his advice for up-and-coming sportscasters, how you produce a sport that has never been televised, and find out the pros and cons of sharing a name with somebody who is on television almost every night.
