Listen to the epic rant by Qumar Zaman, the now former play-by-play announcer for the Lake County Fielders, a minor league baseball team just north of Chicago.

The audio is Zaman — apparently very upset about upper management actions that included the organization’s failure to pay him what he’s owed — quitting his play-by-play job with the Fielders on-air immediately following a recent game.

According to Awful Announcing, the Fielders recently traded nine players and released 14 more. In addition to that, they've had two managers and several players quit after payroll disputes. They also play in a makeshift stadium. Can you blame this guy for quitting?
