Agree w u there. But he keeps his trap shut when the opposing team hits one. Last month he didn't say a god damn thing when Trout hit a grand slam against his "good guys" when normally any self respecting announcer would at least acknowledge a home run. On the other end of the spectrum, I could listen to Jon Miller all day long
Most impressive for me was the David Wright homerun. Not only was it the best closer in baseball but hitting it oppo, not to mention it was a 97 mph heater... Remarkable
***** Your team announcers should be biased towards your team, in my opinion. You watch fox on Saturday, it should be unbiased. When I watch the Braves though, I want the announcers to talk favorable of the Braves.
Jamir Clarke Thank you for your time Jamir I think that you must have a pretty bad life when all you can do is go on youtube and type things to people like that, so I will think about you and hope that things become better in your existence. If you want to talk, please do not hesitate to send a personal message. I will try and be there for you because obviously no one has before. I am truly sorry for that :)
Apex Fluttershy That's cool. I know there are people that like it, different tastes for different people. That's one of the things that makes our culture so diverse. One thing I think we have in common though, is that we are both baseball fans :)
notice how all the ones that are CRUSHED off the bat to left or right field look like 500 feet but are really like 420, and the ones that just look like flyouts to center go 450+ feet..insane
As a Phillies fan, I watched the Gattis one as it happened. If I remember correctly, he had another 400+ foot bomb later in the game as well as a very far-hit double!
I was at that game where Trumbo went yard off of Dan Straily for the 475 footer... first words out of my mouth were "holy shit". I couldn't believe how far that ball went, especially in Oakland where the ball doesn't carry well at all. Right off the bat everybody knew that was way, way out. Have to respect raw power like Trumbo has, even if I am an A's fan.
Great compilation video thanks! I just never realized how unapologetically boring all these baseball announcers actually were... It's like they're all trying to do their best impersonation of @JamesFranco as an Oscars host.
No way Gattis' home run is longer than Stanton's...they both hit it in the same park and Stanton's lands on top of the roof behind where Gattis' landed!
You have to remember that these stats are approximate measurements. Depending on the trajectory of the ball some of these probably in reality would of gone a lot farther!
Hanley Ramirez definitely blasted one out of Petco .... It was at 434 distance.... but the One He Hit at Coors Field was 451 ... I thought Puig Hit a Huge Blast to Center in St. Louis farther than anyone but it was during Practice...doesn't count.
