R3. Passed ball on a short backstop. R3 is off to the races. F2 dumps his bucket and scrambles after the ball. R3 is in full on sprint. F2 grabs the rock and dive headlong back toward the dish. CHOO!CHOO! F2 tags the sliding R3 center mass with all his momentum, and rolls into fair ground. R3, wind knocked out of him, lay there gasping for air. Never got to the plate. F2, laying on his back, opens his mitt to show me the pearl inside. He got you right there! BANG! Everything was legal. Sometimes Amtrak meets Santa Fe.

I actually did say that. Thanks Danny! :D

Reminds me of a play I had a couple of years ago in a LL majors game. R3 coming home on a passed ball, as I hustle to get into position I see F2 come flying through the air with his left leg streched out and landed in perfect position to block R3 off the plate. Bang out. Heck of a play.

I use that line all the time, and I have for a few years now, ....but I don't end it with "bang" .......

 

Do you like your cake without frosting?  Do you like plain cheese pizza?  Unfrosted pop-tarts?  It's the BANG that makes it great!

Are you waiting for just the right rat for the " Boom" ejection? Must be "Boom" worthy?

It's gotta be the domino effect to get the Boom. It has to really brew. When I start singing "Here comes the...BOOM! y'all don't really want it now" in my head, THEN I'll know the time's right.

Everytime I hear that song at a tourney it cracks me up
