Dan Dickerson call from Tigers’ Kerry Carpenter go-ahead HR is electric

play

“AND. IT’S. GONE.”

Those were the words of longtime Detroit Tigers radio play-by-play announcer Dan Dickerson after Kerry Carpenter delivered one of the greatest postseason moments in franchise history.

In a game that seemed destined to end in frustration as the Tigers couldn’t get on the board despite a masterclass from Tarik Skubal, Kerry Carpenter blasted a three-run home run 450 feet to right field alongside Guardians closer Emmanuel Clase, the best reliever in the competition. baseball.

It was a movie-like scene. Top of the ninth inning. Draw. Best opposing pitcher. Two strikes. Two outs. Definitely a home run.

The moment immediately sent Dickerson into hysterics as the ball flew further and further into the right field stands, giving the Tigers a 3-0 lead.

Listen below to the radio call that you should not miss:

INSIDE THE GAME: Do you think the Tigers story couldn’t be better? They just proved you wrong. Again.

TBS announcer Brian Anderson has his own great call

On the national broadcast most fans were watching, Brian Anderson also delivered a memorable call.

After Parker Meadows nearly hit a home run to right field earlier in the game, which appeared to be flattened by the wind, Anderson pointedly pointed out that no amount of wind could stop Carpenter’s moon shot.

“The field is turned on, a fly ball to right field, it’s going to FLY!” said Anderson.
