Tim Kurkjian was honored by the Baseball Hall of Fame as this year's recipient of the BBWAA Career Excellence Award.
After seven-plus years with Sports Illustrated, Kurkjian joined ESPN in 1998. Since then, he has worked as a columnist and become a prominent part of ESPN's broadcast coverage of baseball. He has been a fixture at Baseball Tonight, contributed to SportsCenter and worked as a reporter and analyst during game broadcasts. Kurkjian has twice been honored for his work in television.
"I always thought that Tim looked for the good in baseball," Cal Ripken Jr. told ESPN's Willie Weinbaum. "We bonded over basketball," Ripken added."I remember he used to take his NBA ball on the road with him when he was covering us, looking for some sort of game. We connected and played basketball on Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights."
