Did anyone else call his homerun? Watching the game, I told my dad that he was going to hit it out... the rest is history.

Didn't see the HR coming, but the SW I was practice swinging in my office while watching was broken in three pieces and I didn't remember doing it at all.

I didnt call it exactly, but at the time, I was 11, and when Miami went ahead in the top of the ninth, my dad thought it was over. We were about to leave the camp to go back to town, and I convinced him to watch the last half inning. It is my all time favorite play in all of sports not only for the result for LSU but because I got intoduced to LSU baseball by my dad that day. Been addicted ever since.
