What else could it be?

Bluegrass Miracle, Skyler Green vs UGA or UF 2007?

Not even close, imo

It's a high fly ball, going back and caught by the second baseman on the edge of the infield

Just kidding, the man is a legend. The Morris homer is tGOAT

Going WAY back, I liked his call when Anthony Wilson hit that shot against Memphis State in the 1986 NCAA tourney. That was fun.

The "Jack Hunt" call sums up his career.

Blake Dean's game-winning 3-run hit off the wall at the CWS.

It was great for many reasons but mostly because Rice had shut us down all day. We couldn't hit or even get on base. But then, he crushed it and Hawthorne nailed it, as only he can...
