Believe It

The late great Joe Buck screamed,”I don’t believe what I just saw!” when a severely hobbled Kirk Gibson homered off of Denns Eckersley. 

It was believable. 

In the final game of a three game tie-breaker for the 1951 pennant, Bobby Thompson hit the proverbial “Shot Heard Round the World” off of Ralph Branca. Russ Hodes alternated between screaming “THE GIANTS WON THE PENNANT!” and “I DON’T BELIEVE IT!”

It was believable. 

Saturday night, Gary Cohen exclaimed, “The impossible has happened!”

If you’re like me, you keep checking to make sure it actually happened. Don’t worry. It did. You can believe what you saw. You can believe it. The impossible happened. 

Bartolo Colon hit a homerun.
