Missed opportunity — I should have written something earlier trying to predict John Sterling’s home run calls for new Yankees Austin Kearns and Lance Berkman. At any rate, Kearns hit his first Yankee homer last night, and I heard Sterling exclaimed, “Austin Powers,” over it. Good one! I was wondering if there would be an Austin, Texas related call — like “Keep Austin Weird” or something like that –t, but “Austin Powers” is pretty good.
Anyhow, I’m guessing that Berkman, aka Fat Elvis, will get some Presley-related call from Sterling whenever he hits a homer. Squawker readers, what do you think the call will be?
So Mark Teixeira was back with the team Thursday, after missing two games on baby leave. I half-expected Sterling to have some baby-related call to announce the arrival of William Charles Teixeira. Wouldn’t that have been cool?
What do you think? Tell us about it!
