White Sox Announcer Calls Fly Ball A Can Of Corn, It Winds Up Being A Home Run

April 7, 2016

You have got to be bleeping me.

Even the average baseball fan will tell you that listening to Hawk Harrelson call a baseball game is anything but dull. Whether it’s cursing out an umpire for ejecting a pitcher early in a ballgame or yelling, “You can put it on the board…yes!” after a home run despite the fact that his beloved team is still down six runs in the ninth inning, you almost have to watch every White Sox game in its entirety just to see what he’s going to say next.

Exhibit A for our argument? You guessed it: Harrelson calling Mark Canha’s 376-foot home run a “can of corn” in last night’s 2-1 loss in Oakland.
