Play-By-Play Sound Bites

frankhardy

What are some of your most memorable "play by play" sound bites? Try to do it word for word.

1989 NBA Playoffs, Jim Durham - "The Bulls to inbound the ball... Here's Michael at the foul line... shot on Ehlo... GOOOD! Bulls Win!!!!! They win. They upset the Cleveland Cavaliers!!!"

1991 NBA Finals, Marv Albert - "The look away to Levingston...Jordan...OH.. A spectacular move, by Michael Jordan!!!"

1985 NLCS, Jack Buck - "Smith corks one to right...down the line.....GO CRAZY, FOLKS! GO CRAZY! Ozzie Smith has just hit a home run... and the Cardinals win the game.. 5 to 4.. on a home run... by the Wizard!!!"

1988 World Series, Jack Buck - "Gibson...swings...and a fly ball to deep right field...this is gonna be a home run...I DON'T BELIEVE...WHAT I JUST SAW!!! I don't BELIEVE... what I just saw!!!"

1988 World Series, Vin Scully - "Swing, and a fly ball to deep right field...she is... GONE!"

(Note sure who or when) - "The Giants win the pennant... the Giants win the pennant!"



That's all I could think of for now. I actually enjoyed that!

Swung, line drive left field! One run is in! Here comes Bream! Here's the throw to the plate! He is...safe! Braves win! Braves win! Braves win! Braves win!

Skip Caray

Axtell

"Edgar swings...swung on left field line...here comes cora, here comes junior...throw to the plate...it is late...the Mariners will play for the american league pennant!"

Mariners defeat the Yankees, 1995 ALDS in the bottom of the 11th inning, after being down 2 games to none.

edited for spelling.

How about the exact opposite....

Hank Aaron's 715th homerun. If I remember correctly, the announcers were silent for a couple minutes to not interfere with the moment.


How about.... "A steal by Bird..."

How about

86 W.S GM 6 " little dribbler up along first, it gets through Buckner. Here comes Knight and the METS WIN IT " !!! Vin Scully

Somebody needs to post one of Harry Carey's classics while he was drunk.

Just for fun, let's try a little re-writing of history --

"Knight is down 0-2, 2 out, men on first and second . . . Gedman looks like he's setting for a high fastball . . . the pitch . . . SWING AND A MISS!! He blew a high heater right past him!! The RED SOX WIN!! The RED SOX WIN!! After 68 years, they finally win the World Series!! And there is an elated Jim Rice hugging Roger Clemens . . . . after the heartbreak in 1975, what a joy it must be for the future Hall of Famer to end decades of Red Sox frustration . . . "

Oh, well. 2004 would not have been as satisfying anyway!

Here's one that will stick in my mind for years.


2005 NLCS Game 5, Thom Brennaman - "0-1 to Pujols...IN THE AIR, LEFT FIELD, AND PUJOLS HAS GIVEN ST LOUIS THE LEAD...A DRAMATIC, TOWERING 3 RUN HOME RUN.... (silence)...stunned in disbelief here in Houston... (silence)."
