$6 Million – Joe Buck
Who knew there was a National Sportscaster of the Year award to be presented? If you’re a fan of Joe Buck, you’re probably aware that he’s already received this honour on three separate occasions. Since 1996, he has served as the play-by-play announcer for every World Series game. Since 2015, the legendary analyst has also predicted the winner of the U.S. Open (golf). Since taking over for his father, Jack Buck, he has established himself as a mainstay in contemporary broadcasting. As a result of following in his father’s footsteps, he made the right decision.
