Trust me, I am not a quiet guy on the field. If I make a call, everyone knows it on my field and those adjacent. I will not chase them around the field and try to get them to stop, nor will I continually repeat the call until someone wakes up.
I'm not exactly known for being "soft-spoken," either, but every now and then, you can only belt it out so much. I've literally been heard a city block away, and around the corner.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
