Sterling or Scully? How did Gary Cohen do in Game 1?i

Gare was having a great day.  He had beautiful calls on some of the great JDG moments. Keith mentioned how beautifully Gare described the weather.

It was the 9th inning of a tie game.  Then this happened.

IT IS HIGH     TO THE TRACK

IT IS FAR        TO THE WALL

IT IS GONE    IT’S OUTTA HERE

Everything else about the call is great. Emotion, excitement, but it’s got the John Sterling middle.  Gary needs to stop doing that on 95% of his calls.  He’s better than that.

But….just when I was ready to give Gary a Sterling, he let the game breathe on the walkoff and let the pictures tell the story as the Braves celebrated.  That’s how you do it Gare.

VERDICT: Scully
