Looking for the Walkoff Call From Hughes/Santo

Well, I think we can all agree that Rami walking off last night was definitely the highlight of the season so far. I know the Cubs website probably has Len and Bob's call but I would love to hear Pat Hughes call on the play. I was in a bar (go figure) and couldn't hear either. Maybe you BCB'rs can help me out. Or maybe you could just tell me how he called it. Like; Ramirez smacks a drive deep left field this ball's got a chaaaaaaaaaance GONE!

I heard the replay of the call driving home.

Santo said some combination of, “Oh, yes! All right! Yes sir!” over and over.

I did not hear the replay, but I can confidently confirm this.

Didn't he say something to the effect of

“heee’s baaack” too? Not sure. I went to bed with the radio on and woke up just in time to hear the win.

Yep

Ron did in fact declare Armais “back.” I hope he’s right!

I dont think any one can beat Bob Brenly's call, it gives me goosebumps when I hear it,
