The new voice of Mississippi State baseball was announced on Thursday.
Neil Price has been named the new radio play-by-play announcer. He’s a familiar figure for Bulldogs fans as he’s also currently the voice for MSU football and men’s basketball.
Price takes over for Jim Ellis, who announced his retirement in December after 46 seasons calling Mississippi State baseball.
“It is an honor to be named the broadcaster for one of the most iconic programs in college baseball history,” Price said in a statement. “It is humbling to follow Jim Ellis in this role. Jim’s broadcasts set the standard for college baseball on the radio.”
Price has been with Mississippi State since 2017 and is also a host of the weekly “Dawg Talk” radio show. He’s previously been a broadcaster at Kentucky and Middle Tennessee State.
