Steve Klauke is being called up to the show.

With regular Los Angeles Angels radio broadcaster Terry Smith taking a break for a three-game series between the Angels and the Seattle Mariners, Klauke, the Bees radio play-by-play man, will fill in, according to a team press release.

"I'm looking forward to catching up with some former Bees that are now in the big leagues," Klauke said.

The series will be played in Seattle at Safeco Field on May 13-15.

Klauke has called 3,240 games for Salt Lake City, dating back to 1994. He called two games for the Toronto Blue Jays in 2004.
