Default Re: What are your all time favorite announcers\' calls?

Krukow is the "color" guy, so apparently Kuiper was laughing to hard too pull this stunt because he didn't say a word and it would normally be to him to handle that on the broadcast.

when the color guy opens the segment out of commercial reading some promo-card for "Hat-night this Tuesday" or analyzing a replay or something it's often-times because the play-by-play guy left the booth to go to the mens room and hadn't made it back yet.
Or sometimes he wants to try to finish a hamburger between innings or something and the color-guy agrees ahead of time that he'll go ahead and take it out of the break.

Your hunch that perhaps he was laughing too hard to speak is possible too I guess. But there are other extremely realistic possibilities that could also explain it.

It was obvious what happened real-time, and then they run a slow motion shot of a foul tip to the cup out of commercial-- it was set-up. But you may be correct on why the color guy did it.
