Sterling or Scully: is an annoucerless Conforto Mets HR better than Trackwalling?

Here’s an interesting experiment.  Let me know what you think of THIS Home Run call…..

So, remember there are only two grades. Sterling or Scully. Let’s listen to the call as a TV call. Clearly the ball is gone. Clearly the outfielder knows he won’t catch up to it. There’s no reason to mention a track or wall. There is no unnecessary forcing of a catch phrase. There’s no reason to say It is High, It Is Far, It’s Outta Here because it’s obviously out of here.

Verdict:  Scully.   Sometimes less is more, and sometimes more is way too much.  Thank you annoucerless home run for illustrating the point!
