Most Memorable Sports Calls: TRAINA THOUGHTS
1. I just put together this piece for Sports Illustrated in which I asked several play-by-play broadcasters for their all-time favorite sports call that isn't their own. Al Michaels, Joe Buck, Jim Nantz, Mark Albert, Kevin Harlan, Mike Tirico, Chris Berman, Ian Eagle, Mike Breen, Sean McDonough, Brad Nessler and Rich Eisen all participated and revealed their top call from a fellow broadcaster, so check it out.
As a fan, I find it hard to pick one call as my all-time favorite. If you forced me to choose one, I'd pick Gary Thorne's call of a Don Mattingly home run in a 1995 Yankees playoff game against the Mariners.
