Zach Goodman - "The Voice of Your Amarillo Sod Poodles"
Zach Goodman enters his second season in the Sod Poodles radio booth, his first as the primary play-by-play caller for 2025 home and road games.
Goodman, a Denver, Colo. native, made his broadcasting debut in 2024. He stepped in as the number two voice for the Sod Poodles following the departure of Chris Caray, who made the move to Oakland to become the play-by-play broadcaster for the Athletics last year. Goodman gained valuable experience in his rookie season, propelling him to the number one spot going into the new year.
His pursuit of a career in broadcasting can be attributed to his father, Drew, who has been the television voice of the Colorado Rockies for 24 years. A young Goodman grew up listening to his dad call games for the hometown team, sometimes putting his own spin on the action at home in his living room. After watching the Rockies make their run to the World Series in 2007, a career in baseball became a foregone conclusion, whether that was on the field, or following in his father’s footsteps in the booth.
