Tom McCarthy, Scott Franzke Absolutely Crush Calls on Phillies' Homers
The Phillies provided fans with one of their most memorable wins in recent history by completing an improbable comeback to stun (and sweep) the Angels.
While the game itself may have been unpredictable, you knew Tom McCarthy and Scott Franzke would kill it on the calls of both Bryce Harper’s game-tying grand slam and Bryson Stott’s walk-off shot.
First, here is McCarthy on Harper’s second-deck bomb — with a strong assist from John Kruk:
Heard this one before?

And now for Franzke/ft. a laugh of disbelief from Larry Andersen (h/t to Nick Piccone, who always does a great job pulling the audio for these tweets):

Just like old times. Really, some serious 2008-2009 vibes on these.
