      jonathan Katz - I was there when it happened. Skydome (now Rogers Centre) 1993 world series game 6 against the phillies. for the entire bottom of the 9th everyone in the lower bowl at skydome was standing on their chairs. it was incredibile. never forget it.

      Totally agree. Joe Buck just didn't shut up on radio but that's the one you usually hear not the NBC Scully call. Pat Summerall was close to Scully as an announcer and he shut up after Vaneteri's winning field goal in Super Bowl 36. He just said...."It's Good!" and let you watch the celebration.

Vin calling “ a black man is getting a standing ovation in the Deep South” will forever be more significant in the iconoclast over “Do you believe in miracles??” Both were tremendously important moments, each history defining, but Aaron at that moment, and Scully with those words, changed everything.

    I interviewed Tom Cheek on the radio in 1994 only a few months after the Jay's won back to back. After reading his book Road to Glory, I asked him about his call on Joe Carter's home run. He said in his book he tried not to get too choked up in '92 when they won the first World Series, so it wasn't an overly emotional call. As for Carter's homer, he said, after I played the audio on air, "that was pretty good, wasn't it?" Damn right. RIP Tom Cheek.
