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

When Morris hits the ball you can hear the exact instant that Jim realizes it could be a homer and then the jubilation.
