Prior to Sunday's game between the Seattle Mariners and the Toronto Blue Jays, Mike Blowers, along with other members of the Mariners broadcast team made their picks for player of the game. With the season winding down, Blowers decided to go with a long shot and choose rookie call up Matt Tuiasosopo. If that wasn't enough, Blowers also got into a little more detail when he said the youngster would hit his first career home run into the upper deck during his second at bat on a 3-1 count, and the pitch would be a fastball.
Amazingly, Blowers hit the nail on the head. Fifth inning, second at bat, 3-1 count, fastball, second deck home run. It was truly amazing and the call was even better as you can hear the broadcasters begin to laugh when the count reached 3-1. As the ball was hit, it sounds as though they nearly exploded out of their seats, and you can't blame them one bit.
