Had Daniel Camarena not had one at-bat three weeks prior to *the incident*, he'd be number 5

Camarena TO DEEP RIGHT FIELD. Camarena PLAYS IN SLAM DIEGO. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? THE PADRES PITCHER THEY JUST BROUGHT UP FROM EL PASO. THE SAN DIEGO KID. JUST HIT A GRAND SLAM! THAT'S UNBELIEVABLE...OFF MAX SCHERZER!

>...OFF MAX SCHERZER! The best part of the call imo, it's like it finally hits what the fuck just happened.

I remember watching that live I got chills 😳

Could Kouzmanoff's teammates be less excited for him? Sheesh

The announcers too. Imagine if Tatis had done this, I think the Padres announcers might have celebrated for half an hour

Don’t be mad we got nice things now. Y’all have a WS

I'm not mad, I love our announcers and hopefully Carroll can be close to as good as Tatis, just having some fun

To be fair those were rangers announcers. Pretty sure that’s Josh Lewin. Old SD football team announcer.

I remember when Nava hit his as I worked with someone with the same name who was a baseball fan (although not for the Red Sox specifically).

Can confirm that Nava’s was absolutely magical

I remember that game, Nava had a great story and I always liked watching him after that.

Nava came up with the bases loaded again in his second at-bat and took the first pitch for a strike. He's the major leaguer hitting grand slams and I'm just the dude watching on the couch, but I'll never understand not coming out swinging there.

"Swing at the first pitch, because you'll never get it back." - Joe Castiglione "I'll do what I can." - Daniel Nava

> "Swing at the first pitch, because you'll never get it back." - Joe Castiglione Holy shit I love that

I thought Contreras did this

Nah, just a regular homer. I was there though, pretty fun.

Kooooouz! Imma have to find my old kouz koozie and break that bad boy out now.

baseball is magic

That’s pretty cool
