RIP, Harry Kalas

I've been very lazy updating this. But have to, with the passing of Hall-of-Fame broadcaster, Harry Kalas.

I always remember first listening to him, when I became a sports fan, starting with baseball, back in 1989. I used to love to imitate him, when playing baseball with some friends, and at times, when playing kickball.

And he did make it memorable, the Terry Mulholland no-hitter in 1990, as I listened to it unfold on the radio, creating a lot of excitement, even though I could not see what was happening.

And the countless home run calls, making "outta here" a catchphrase in Philadelphia. When a Phillies player hits a home run, it is something like "swing and a long drive to deep right field, and this ball is... OUTTA HERE". His last one was the Matt Stairs homer this past Sunday, against the Rockies.

Phillies baseball will never be the same without Harry. I'm glad that he got to see 1 more Phillies championship.

Rest in Peace, Harry Kalas. You will be missed!
