This baseball commentator got to narrate his own spectacular catch – and it’s utterly joyous
A funny sporting clip from 2019 has been racking up the views again over on TikTok after being shared by CBS Sports.
It’s not exactly a million-to-one shot, but we bet they couldn’t do it again on purpose.
See for yourself.
@cbssports “What a play by me” #mlb #baseball ♬ original sound – CBS Sports
“Cardullo swings and fouls it off, towards the broadcast booth, and I make the catch on the foul ball.”
“Boy, am I impressive! What a play by me.”
Marc Schwartz, the Media Relations Director and announcer for the Somerset Patriots – New Jersey, not S.W. England – must be among a very elite set of commentators after doing that.
The clip was new to most people seeing it this time around, and it brought more than a little joy.
The body language is way more excited than the commentary.

Me, when I do even the simplest task “Boy am I impressive!”

Nothing takes me out of story more than when the narrator suddenly switches from third to first person.
