Joe Buck’s “We Will See You Tomorrow Night” Call Was the Exact Same as His Father’s in Game Six the 1991 World Series
All, Baseball, Media Gossip/Musings, Video October 28th. 2011, 8:00am
Joe Buck’s dry, monotone style irks many sports fans, but his game-ending call Thursday night – “We … will … see you … tomorrow night!” seemed perfect for the moment. It’s also the exact same call his father made on a Kirby Puckett walk-off homer that ended game six in the 1991 World Series. Like Freese’s homer, Puckett’s also came in the 11th inning. Two walk-off homers, both in game six, both in the 11th inning, twenty years apart, both called by the Buck family. Goosebumps. [H/T @JimmyTraina]

Had you been up watching, you’d know this was referenced several times during the game by mccarver/this buck. If anybody who watched the game was surprised or awed, they probably also wonder where the bread goes when a toaster gives you back toast.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:09 AM
Its also the exact same call he made 7 years ago. Stale.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:10 AM
it’s like CRM doesn’t even work here.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:13 AM
I guess TBL wasnt watching the 04 ALCS
October 28th, 2011 at 8:14 AM
oh, he’s definitely made the call before, CJ.
similarities:
game 6
world series
11th inning
walk-off
father/son
20 years apart
October 28th, 2011 at 8:19 AM
Ok..?
You see it as ‘eerie’, I see it as a guy who cant come up with his own calls.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:21 AM
On a more important note, blowing 5 leads. Wow. Tonight should be awesome. And should get amazing RATINGS!!!
October 28th, 2011 at 8:23 AM
Eat shit Rangers. I wont be able to watch most of Game 7 because I’ll be watching the ever more important Wings/Sharks battle.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:24 AM
eerie, cool, wicked awesome, strange … probably can’t find enough adjectives for it.
Props to McCarver staying silent.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:25 AM
He was asleep.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:27 AM
probably can’t find enough adjectives for it.
and yet you can’t find any for the actual game.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:32 AM
/nods
great baseball game. this has been an awesome World Series.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:35 AM
great baseball game.
It was seriously terrible, yet awesomely awesome. I like how the manager who knew how to handle making moves ran out of dudes in the 7th inning, and the one who was supposed to be clueless didn’t pinch hit for his pitcher with a chance to blow it open in the 5th, and then did in the 11th with nothing going on.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:36 AM
Bad pitching, bad fielding , bad managing
Yeah real classic
October 28th, 2011 at 8:38 AM
At some point, when will a GM call down to the dugout and tell his coach not to do something really stupid?
The non-pinch hit might cost Texas the World Series.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:38 AM
Yeah real classic
you’ll see fewer brain farts in a Girl’s Under 5 soccer league
October 28th, 2011 at 8:38 AM
rallies in the bottom of the 9th & 10th & a walk-off don’t cancel that stuff out?
October 28th, 2011 at 8:38 AM
He actually said “We’ll see you later tonight.” because the game had gone so far past midnight, which I thought was cool because it was a nice twist no his Dad’s walk-off call.
Agree with everyone that it was a horribly played game but exciting. I stayed up to watch it all and can’t believe Cruz misplayed that ball so badly.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:39 AM
The non-pinch hit might cost Texas the World Series.
or it could have been the terrible, terrible relief. That is not a good closer they employ.
I don’t always watch baseball, but that guy sucks.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:41 AM
rallies in the bottom of the 9th & 10th & a walk-off don’t cancel that stuff out?
you have no idea how bad it was. It was an awful, awful baseball game from a “baseball merit” standpoint.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:42 AM
Figures that Ogando and Feliz implode in the WS after being LIGHTS OUT in the ALCS.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:43 AM
Not if they are caused by what I previously stated.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:44 AM
No, he did both. I think it was game 4 that he said ‘tomorrow’ because that game, although long, started at around 5
October 28th, 2011 at 8:45 AM
Ogando
they told him, “don’t give them anything to hit,” and he’s been great so far. He keeps it way away from the plate.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:45 AM
It was a painful game to watch through the seventh inning, but after that it was pretty great (I might be biased, though).
Actually, Neftali Feliz is a pretty awesome closer normally.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:45 AM
My bad: game 4 was the ‘later tonight’ game that ended past 1 AM, game 5 then started 16 hours later at 5:11
October 28th, 2011 at 8:46 AM
Ahh, didn’t remember him doing the ‘tomorrow’ one. He still blows ass and McCarver is a waste of space.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:46 AM
It was an exciting but guys can’t catch a fly by wall, picked off third, and two shitty bullpens.
Only thing that could have made this worse if Buck would have read his dead fathers bad poetry.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:47 AM
I stayed up to watch it all and can’t believe Cruz misplayed that ball so badly.
somethingsomething no doubles formation somethingsomething
I really expected Lance Berkman to be the guy continually fucking up in right field. But I will admit to knowing nothing
October 28th, 2011 at 8:47 AM
“johnny damon can keep running to New York where we will see you tomorrow night”
/ugh
October 28th, 2011 at 8:48 AM
One of the analysts after the game said something about Cruz being known for shying away from the wall – does anyone know who that was? I heard it, but I wasn’t looking at the t.v. at that point.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:49 AM
I’m just curious to see what the rating were so I can be sure that was an awesome game.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:50 AM
or something like that
October 28th, 2011 at 8:50 AM
wow, Spalding, harsh
October 28th, 2011 at 8:51 AM
/was watching nationwide tour championship instead…
//feel like i missed out on something
October 28th, 2011 at 8:52 AM
I’m just curious to see what the rating were so I can be sure that was an awesome game.
but you already know that the guy from extra mustard said it ended with an ICONIC call, because TBL copied his work and presented it as his own (after CRM had already thrown it up last night anyway), so you know it must have been worth getting up early and going to si.com to see what sports guys wrote about it, on the page where they show the naked ladies, and not game results.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:52 AM
Goodness people, it was a nice h/t to his Dad. 20 years apart, Game 6s or World Series, Walk-off homers in the 11th inning. Stop getting all bent out of shape over one announcer’s call.
As for the game, a comedy of errors by both teams. Then ending with St.Louis down to their final strike – TWICE! – and still manage to win the game. Looking forward to Game 7
October 28th, 2011 at 8:55 AM
Holliday is the one who fucked up and dropped what would have been the final out in one of the NLDS games against the Dodgers a couple years ago, so I wasn’t exactly shocked that he looked like my 11 year old nephew saying “take it, take it” to the guy who had just ran looking over his shoulder from SS into left field.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:55 AM
Stop getting all bent out of shape over one announcer’s call.
I’m personally bent out of shape because i’m super tired from staying up.
I honestly like this Buck, and don’t care what he says. The laughable notion is that somebody (who didn’t watch the game because it had a low rating) got up and got goosebumps listening to a guy say the obvious thing is laughable.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:56 AM
Phillies fans know this all too well. It’s called Bobby Abreu disease.
October 28th, 2011 at 8:57 AM
NinoBrown, FTW!
/finally, somebody gets it
October 28th, 2011 at 8:58 AM
Rangers’ nerves have to be frayed. I imagine Ogando has nothing left.
October 28th, 2011 at 9:00 AM
Apparantly Buck used it in game 6 of the ’02 World Series as well. Yawn.
October 28th, 2011 at 9:06 AM
Rangers’ nerves have to be frayed. I imagine Ogando has nothing left.
Probably so, you know they had to be ready to celebrate. Hamilton’s home run should have won it. That would have been a nice ending to his season with all he went through with the fan falling in the stands and everything.
/slighty rooting for Texas.
October 28th, 2011 at 9:09 AM
If the cards win this will be one of the “greatest” games ever, but if they don’t everything following the highlight will be ” but they still didn’t win the world series.” just like the Fisk homer.
October 28th, 2011 at 9:10 AM
No way the Drunkbirds win tonight. Carpenter on 3 days rest against that offense?! no way. Rangers have a fresher bullpen for tonight to
October 28th, 2011 at 9:10 AM
It’s a compelling and entertaining series.
It’s not a great/pantheon series b/c there’s been some mediocre play and management. There’s a great series for every 20 years or so. One could argue the Yankees-DBacks series is in there due to the 9/11 impact, Braves-Twins was a pantheon series.
October 28th, 2011 at 9:40 AM
Someone needs to get fucked.
Buck is not good for football, but he’s grown on me for baseball. When the Cards were making some of their rallies in the b9 and b10, loved how Buck wouldn’t say anything and just let the crowd noise tell the story. Some of his best work right there – just knowing when not to say anything is a lost art.
Sloppy game to start but an incredibly compelling ending. I don’t know how you can say a game that was tied twice when the team was down to its last strike of the season wasn’t high drama. Some people on here just need to get over themselves and stop sniffing their own farts.
October 28th, 2011 at 10:18 AM
This one has grown on me.
I get it was a tough catch but I’d really like to see a wide-angle replay, and see if the CF could have maybe gotten that carom. I guess it was a long way to travel, but he might have cut down the speedster Berkman otherwise, right?
October 28th, 2011 at 10:19 AM
So we’ve all agreed to ignore the fact that he sounds like a frog with pneumonia?
October 28th, 2011 at 10:31 AM
a Kirby Puckett walk-off homer that ended game six in the 1991 World Series.
Goddamn it, if Hrbek hadn’t pulled Gant off first base, the Braves would have won that series.
/ Maybe. Details are hazy now.
