The late homers by Jhonkensy Noel and David Fry to rescue the Guardians from defeat in Game 3 of the ALCS against the Yankees on Thursday night were thrilling enough on TBS' national broadcast, but diehards must have known the Cleveland radio crew would come through, too.

Beloved Guardians play-by-play radio broadcaster Tom Hamilton and color partner Jim Rosenhaus didn't disappoint as they called their club's come-from-behind 7-5 win in 10 innings, which cut New York's ALCS lead to 2-1 entering Friday night's Game 4.

Hamilton, wrapping up his 35th season calling games on the radio for Cleveland fans, has broadcast every postseason game the franchise has played -- more than 100 in all -- since he took the role in 1990.

Not to be outdone, the Guardians' Spanish radio crew of Rafa Hernández-Brito and former Major Leaguer Carlos Baerga also captured the surprise and elation of both dingers. "Feliz Navidad" indeed!
