Best baseball call ever


The only reason I spend any time at all watching a couple at bats of a Phillies game is to hear Harry Kalas. The man has one of the classic broadcasting voices of all time. During last night's predicatable loss via blowing a one-run lead in the ninth inning, Kalas was at his finest.
<CRACK!>

You're kidding me... (other announcer, "oh no, no")
You are kidding me.

Home run, Craig Biggio to give the Houston Astros an 8 to 6 lead.

I can not believe what I am seeing.

All the runs are unearned.

But so what.
I wish I had an mp3 I could post because the transcription doesn't come close to doing Kalas justice.
