Hawk Harrelson's home run call is one of the more unique in Major League Baseball. Unlike his call when an opposing team hits a dinger, Hawk's White Sox siren is loud, confident and entertaining. Listen to it in all its glory below:
Hawk's call has been impersonated by people within the White Sox organization, but this past weekend, "You can put it on the booooooaarrrdddd!" went global. A broadcaster in the Indian Premier League used it to describe a a well-struck ball during a match between the Sunrisers Hyderabad-Kolkata Knight Riders in India.
Thoughts, Hawk?
