Definitely, but I must say it's certainly creative and humbling punishment for the announcer!
I love that sound bite he used, btw. Growing up in Milwaukee, I used to love listening to Bob Uecker calling the Brewers games. I can still hear him say, "get up! Get up! Get outta here! GONE for Robin Yount! And a three-run homer puts the Brewers within 7 runs..."
