Rex hudler is probably the funniest color commentator. Dude mistook the moon for a planet.

[@CJ-mn8pd]

+Joshua Andersen in a way it is a planet.....

[@The_Matt_Hayden]

Ffboarder4life in NO way is it a planet.

[@jhanks2012]

Well the moon is larger than some planets so it's large enough to be called a planet it's just that it happens to orbit around another planet instead of around the sun, so it's a very arbitrary definition to call it a moon but not a planet. In theory the moon could be moved into an orbit around the sun, and then the definition of planet would apply. To have two different names for the same exact object depending only on the object's current orbital trajectory is kind of stupid.

[@scottmcman7659]

Sometimes you can feel when a hone run is coming. I notice that I often can feel when a strikeout is coming, or a double play. Knowing the game intimately and being very observant to even the obscure things going on helps to form an idea of what will happen next.

[@THEJIGGADREWSHOW]

BASEBALL.....The only sport in the world that's 1 against 9.....Gotta love it~!!!

[@erwingcampos6597]

Not really 9 vs 1 since they're all spread around the field and not all players touch the ball in a play

[@THEJIGGADREWSHOW]

Erwing Campos you're correct, it's exactly one vs one..smh. Why is it that SOMEONE ALWAYS has to try and make themselves feel right,even when they're absolutely wrong? How many people play defense and how many play offense at the same exact time? lol thank you. :))

[@wilfredochalas4047]

one player trying to get on base, nine trying to get him out, if this is not one vs nine I dont know what it is.

That Mariners call had me dead😂

[@August377]

The prediction in that Mariners game that was covered by Rachael Maddow was a thing of legend. That guy called it to the letter. Even got the 2nd at bat and the second deck right. Incredible.

[@jonathanwatson4773]

The Buster Posey call was just amazing. The dude called it just as he did it

[@scottsmith4346]

Lefebvre also called a Moustakas homer on a hanging curveball into the Royals bullpen on 9/30/2015. Perfect.

[@mattbrendlen]

There's a pretty great game from 2015 where Madison Bumgarner is in the box against the A's. Kruk and Kuip are talking about his approach to batting and how he says "My strategy is to try to hit a homerun every swing..." and right after they say that, he does. Giants end up winning 1-0... but I don't know if that counts as a "called it" homer.

[@davem1212]

Mariners call gave me goosebumps on him calling it

[@lebronakon2324]

"He's got a beautiful load" 😂

[@stealthdasniper]

It's also explosive.

[@krisaker7462]

"Thats a beautiful load, hes explosive..." idk what do you think im talking about.

[@marauderhd6885]

That's what a load is, when you're preparing to hit a ball, a load is when your front leg lifts up in order to get the power into your swing.

[@Nick-ve1kg]

MarauderHD omg you must be too young to get it

[@TheHuskyK9]

Explosive loads are the best loads 💦💦

[@JGun101]

Man Jay Buhner called a home run from Milton Bradley in 2010 and on the next pitch he blasts a three run shot, it was amazing

[@matrixphijr]

Funny thing about MLB Network is... even when they're "LIVE" they're up to 5 minutes behind the local coverage of the game, so they could easily get the results before going to their look-in.

[@shmooveyea]

My MLB TV is max 10-30 seconds behind. 5 minutes? Thats rough.

[@matrixphijr]

shmaveyea I don't know if it's the same as a regional delay. I just know I've been on local coverage of my team's game and seen them (for instance) get a walk-off hit, then flipped over to MLB Tonight to see highlights, only to hear Amsinger say, "When we come back, we'll take you to (city) where the (team) have the bases loaded in the bottom of the 9th. Can (batter) come through?" Then after the commercial, they go "live to the park" to show the exact same thing I saw on my local coverage minutes earlier. So I don't know if they just don't get the highlights right away, or lie and claim it's live when they already know what happened, or what.

[@matrixphijr]

I do trust Greg Amsinger, though. He's always seemed pretty sincere -- maybe his producers know but don't tell him so he can have his moments. Then again, if you're a smart guy (and I'm sure he is), you have to know there's a reason your highlight show is about to cut to a certain game, that something must have happened.

[@chrism7574]

matrixphijr That's not always true. I've watched many live look ins to sports, baseball, soccer, football, and 90% of the time the result is just a pop out or ground out for baseball, soccer is usually a tied game or one goal game and the look in is into the last moments of stoppage time and its ends the same score, or football it's just a field goal or whatever. From my experience, they just cut to a game that has something going on, sometimes something happens that interesting, but most of the time it's completely run of the mill play.

[@matrixphijr]

Chris M I understand. I never said it was always true all the time. But I've seen it happen before that they cut to a "live look-in" well after the situation they look into has ended. That was my only real point -- that it isn't always live.

[@jamesbarlow3344]

5:39 look at that load, that's a beautiful load.

[@jackjon7763]

When analysts are more hyped about a game winning home run then the guy who actually hit it

[@itsjakesports]

Me and my dad have called many Nats homers. On opening day it was raining against the Marlins, in the7th, my dad said "Alright, Harper's due, we'll see him hit a homer and go home" Harper did that. I called the Murphy pinch hit game tying homer against Melancon, I also called the Turner homer, and I asked my parents if I could stay up to watch Turner hit the walk off before I went to bed, and he hit the homer, and I called the two walk off homers by Harper this year. I guess I have a pretty good track record.

[@BassManSTS]

If you can dig up Jake Arrieta's 2016 NLDS Home Run at San Francisco with the radio commentary, Pat Hughes actually predicted that homer before it was hit

[@PhantomofDB]

Why does Rachel Maddow always sound like the second she's off air she is gonna go home and drink a glass of misery. Even when she's excited about something

[@thegamingkid6374]

The first homerun reminded me of the ALL STAR Game but if it were going against an other team

[@okuyasu4033]

that’s a beautiful load, and it’s explosive, and the hips turn as the hands come through...

[@Lotto188]

That 3rd one gave me chills

[@Keldon334]

Calling your homerun gotta be one of the greatest feelings in the world.

[@diegowirz4885]

Once I was at a Red Sox game, and a mother behind us said to her little son that David Ortiz will hit a homerun in between the two lights in the green monster and I started laughing because papi never hits it opposite field, but the next pitch he hit it in the exact spot and I was so amazed

[@dmouse1999]

That's only the first of 2 predictions Mike Blowers has had

[@tls5870]

My sister was in the hallway outside my door for the last 25 seconds of this, she's all like wth are you watching!?

[@MeenBean]

Sitting with my family I called Ortiz's game-tying grand slam in the '13 ALCS about 10 seconds before the pitch was thrown. Needless to say I peaked in 2013.

[@Samsunaattori]

Once when I still played finnish baseball in junior league, the pitcher started smacktalking me and asked "wanna low pitch or high?" to which I answered "low, I like to hit homers from those". Team mates were laughing at my answer because I was the skinny guy who had never hit a homer. Then came the pitch, first one of the whole match in the first game of the season. It was low, and I hit it just perfectly. Everyone who heard what I said before the pitch just laughed loudly as I rounded the bases for my first home run

[@sannysinatra4563]

5:40 😂 what a load 😂

[@MelShibson]

That Mike Blowers prediction was fucking legendary

[@tommhank.]

3:18 that was Mike Blowers and Rick Rizzs. I hope whoever put Dave Niehaus on there was fired.

[@abouttime4428]

Joey's Lawyer right! And rick Rizzs doesn’t sound anything like Dave Niehaus

[@bagofgroceries]

Longoria is forever a Ray. Gonna say it first as well, his number is getting retired when he returns to the Trop.

[@dazedapparition7845]

The difference between predicting home runs and predicting my mother in law will eat a cow for her daily snack is that the cow is actually in trouble every time.

[@ProfessorFinesserr]

I remember watching that Buster Posey at bat and having a feeling he'd hit it out. Called it just like Greg Amsinger.

[@conniemosier8437]

Nope. Very happy I didn't "tune in" at all.......just read Comments about it, and maddow, and it didn't ruin My day.

[@bigman7293]

The coolest thing is that my dad can make these kinds of calls too... Several times he's been "so and so (whoever is up) is gonna hit a jack right here" and it happens. Not even shitting anyone.

[@ExposClassics94]

[@davidwagner1315]

[@thebigballer5625]

You should show when Verlander called Aaron judges homer in the all star game

[@danielchacon1098]

What about Harold Reynolds calling CarGo's grand slam

[@vincentadultman8527]

Kuip has a great HR call. High drive, deep, it...is...OUTTA HERE! Too bad as a Giants' fan we rarely get to hear it as the Giants hit fewer home runs than every team in the majors except Miami and Atlanta. And those teams are trying to lose.

[@abcfam5880]

Vincent Adultman The braves are rebuilding... They arent TRYING to lose

[@vincentadultman8527]

Abc Fam A big part of rebuilding is drafting high...and the worst records get the top picks...so if you really think rebuilding teams aren't trying to lose...by methods such as playing prospects before they are really ready or passing on veterans that could get them a couple of WARP...you're either naive...or you don't know baseball. And I say all this without passing judgment on those franchises, that's just what a complete tear-down and rebuild entails.

[@abcfam5880]

Vincent Adultman The Braves lost first pick...

[@abouttime4428]

Abc Fam well now the braves are stacked so I guess it worked

[@madc2004]

I was at an I Cubs games and Mark Zagunis had 0 home runs. I said how about we get one here Mark. Then he hit a deep home run to take the lead

[@fallen4life080]

I noticed that the more in tune with the game you are as a fan the more likely you are to call a particular pitch, a strikeout, or homerun. Ive called several homerun in the last several years, I'd say I can call one like 30% of the time which actually isn't bad.

[@ethankimmerle4316]

i was at a reds cubs game and my friend who i brought who knows very little about baseball and doesn’t play looked at me when the bases were loaded and goes home run right here and i was like no way. jesse winker grand slam next pitch. we went crazy. he’s somehow predicted so much stuff not as cool as this but he just gets lucky when stuff like this happens
