Off day open thread: The make your own Sterling call edition

Mike Zarrilli

I personally think the John Sterling home run calls are stupid and really annoying and yet there is something deeply amusing about them. Maybe it's just that Sterling is such a ridiculous caricature of himself at this point and his calls are more for show than any kind of emotion at this point. I play a game with the girlfriend where we try to guess what John Sterling's home run call would be for every player (we're cool), so let's play a game.

I'm going to throw some names out there, just to get things started, and you can come up with what the call would be. I already play this game all the time, so now I'm including all of you.

What would Sterling say if these players hit a home run:

Zoilo Almonte

Tyler Austin

Greg Bird

Reid Brignac

Slade Heathcott

Corban Joseph

Aaron Judge

Eric Jagielo

Melky Mesa

JR Murphy

Ronnier Mustelier

Thomas Neal

Peter O'Brien

Mike O'Neill

Austin Romine

Gary Sanchez

Mason Williams


Feel free to come up with other players in the Yankees' system, players on other teams, or even new ones if you dislike one he's already made.


Also feel free to talk about anything else you want, I guess.
