If you follow the AAABA Tournament, chances are you’ve heard Don and John on the radio!
That’s Don Stanton, who will call his 36th AAABA Tournament, and Johnny DeFazio, who has been on the microphone for 38 AAABA events, counting this year.
The Johnstown entry night games will be carried on WCRO 1230 AM and 102.9 FM.

Stantonand DeFazio have seen some of the greatest moments in local AAABA history, none greater than the Martella’s Pharmacy winning the first AAABA Tournament title in Johnstown franchise history in 2018.
Stanton also serves as commissioner of the Johnstown Collegiate Baseball League. He was a star pitcher in the 1970s who pitched two no-hitters in the local league but ironically didn’t have a chance to play in the AAABA Tournament.
DeFazio currently is an assistant baseball coach at Bishop McCort Catholic High School. He formerly served as head coach of the Crimson Crushers program, leading the team to a district title.
