I like Matt Park. His commentary style might leave out some specifics but as someone who drives for work a lot and listens to a lot of sports radio I don't think that's unusual.
I guess it depends on how and why you're listening. If you're expecting the radio to make up for not being in front of a TV that's a hard bargain, I don't know that Matt even tries to do that. if you're expecting to be entertained and kept up to speed at a high level while otherwise occupied with something, he delivers.
There's also something of a learning curve to it. Kind of...building out a situational awareness for what's going on in your head, and taking queues from the crowds and whistles and such. The work thing has been going on about a decade and I definitely understand more of any particular broadcast now than when I started. Especially true for baseball. The crack of the bat has *so* much information in it.
