CC97 Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 Those are considered calls more than quotes (although by definition they are quotes as well)."Touch 'Em All Joe! You'll NEVER hit a bigger home run in your life!" - Tom Cheek after Carter's 93 World Series winning blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
See Red Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 And John Sterling's 'The-eh-eh-eh Yankees Win!' is among the absolute, most annoying things that any announcer does in any sport. And I'm not saying this just as a Red Sox fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stampman Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 here's some of my favorite baseball quotes in no particular historical order:July 4, 1939: Lou Gehrig's Farewell SpeechLou Gehrig: Today, I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth.

Can you believe it?!" actually, we dont live in the past. its just that the sox ONLY have one great quote/call to remember as with the Yanks, we have hundreds upon hundreds of great moments/quotes to remember like this one from the Yankee Clipper."I want to thank the good lord for making me a Yankee"or like this call from last July:Michael Kay: Pop fly, third base side ARod underneath it and Derek Jeter out of nowhere makes the most spectatcular catch you will ever see! Oh what a play! Putting his own body on the line for the team!Jim Kaat (after seeing Jeter's busted cheek): It looks like a big Heavyweight fight out there.
