The greatest home-run call of the last forever

Of course it’s Manny Ramirez who hits it, too.

“That ball is loooooong goooonnnnnnne. Just like your ex-girlfriend who ... will ... never ... return.”

Aaaaamazing. And everyone’s all Vin Scully this and Vin Scully that for something he didn’t say after Yasiel Puig’s grand slam. Pfffffft.

The best part? The announcers translating the call toward the end of the video:

“Well, you see, 前女友 means ‘Champion of fire’, which is a term of respect, obviously, and 永远不会返回 is ‘Manny being Manny’, a common catch phrase from America.”

Hat tip to Reddit, of course.
