Or -- in this case -- welcome back to the party, pal.
The West Michigan Whitecaps announced today that Ben Chiswick has been named the new radio play-by-play announcer for the Whitecaps.
Chiswick spent the last four seasons as director of broadcasting and media relations for the fellow Midwest League Quad Cities River Bandits.

I posted this over on my blog...but here's the list of MWL broadcasters changing teams. Did I miss anyone Chris?
Ben is now in West Michigan.
Ben used to be the play-by-play guy for the Quad Cities River Bandits.
Quad Cities is no longer doing radio (bad move in my opinion).
Ben's intern in Quad Cities was Nick Devlin.
Nick is the new broadcaster for the Burlington Bees.
Sticking in the Western Division, Jeff Hem remains at the mic for the Kane County Cougars.
Jeff used to broadcast for the Battle Creek franchise, before that fell apart.
Not to be forgotten, Marcus Jacobs is the media relations director in Beloit.
Marcus spent some time working with Dave Lezotte in Clinton before ascending to his current position.
Jumping back over to the East, Tom Nichols enters his third season with the Dayton Dragons.
Tom originally broadcast for the Fort Wayne Wizards in the 90's.
I worked with Tom for the Dragons.
I'm clearly now the broadcaster for the South Bend Silver Hawks.
Well, Woody went from Lansing to Dayton at one time, but as far as current broadcasters that list is accurate.
Although Jeff was in Kane County before BC went under. Remember Dave, who was there the last two years when they were Southwest Michigan.
Dave? I thought it was Mike. Wags first name was Mike, wasn't it?
