Japanese Call of the World Baseball Classic Semifinal Walk Off was Awesome
I have no idea what these guys are saying, but this is awesome:

Okay I did make out a couple of sayonaras in there. That was cool. These dudes are HYPED for the World Baseball Classic. I think the U.S. is the only country not hyped for the WBC, but it’s been a pretty rad tournament. The games have been good, Phillies players are doing well, and there’s star power in the final.
I know a guy in Japan and asked him to translate this, but he may be asleep right now. If he can’t do it, we’ll get Marisa from Tokyo to help out, then she can sing us a song.
EDIT – he was not asleep:
“Murakami does it!” – repeated and then several seconds of incomprehensible screaming and then “Ohtani slides home and now Shuto—” and then more incomprehensible screaming, then “sayonara” (the word for walk-off wins/homers/etc) over and over and more incomprehensible screams
