"He a professional in every sense of the word and will represent not only the BILLINGS MUSTANGS, but the city of BILLINGS with the utmost class and integrity both on and off the radio. His broadcasts are insightful, informative and entertaining.  We believe that JOE is an excellent fit for our organization and look forward to working with him on a daily basis this season."

"I'm thrilled to be coming to BILLINGS," added BLOCK.  "I really enjoy calling baseball -- it's a passion of mine, and I hope MUSTANGS fans hear that in my voice this summer.  GARY ROLLER and I have been acquaintances for some time and I know he and his staff put on an entertaining show night in and night out and I hope to add to their terrific presentation."
