A Decade Ago Tonight, Joe Buck Made His Most Memorable Call Of All-Time

STAIRS RIPS ONE INTO THE NIGHT.

My name is Matt Stairs and I hit dingers. Ok, is it Joe Buck’s most memorable call of all-time? Probably not. Is it my and a lot of Philadelphia faithful’s most memorable Joe Buck call of all-time? Believe it. The second that beer guzzling bear of a grizzly Canadian connected with that Broxton pitch the entire world knew it was gone. Hell, it still is going. The only thing that hurt more than that ball is Stairs’ buttox when he got back to the dugout. Nothing better than getting your ass hammered by the guys.

The best Phillies call of my lifetime has gotta be Scott Franzke calling a 2009 NCLS game winner with LA celebrating in the background. Here is said call combined cleverly with a scene from Goodfellas. That felling never gets old.
