Oh shut up Papi. The stadium has never been full before? That's a fact? I was there in 2014

I think Ortiz was saying he's never seen it that full before. And to that I say, who cares?

He say anything about ever re-imbursing the O's for that bullpen phone?

They should have asked A-Rod about how loud it can get at OPACY. His strikeout against Jim Johnson to end Game 2 of the 2012 ALDS was famously recorded at well in excess of 110 decibels.

It was loud. 120 decibels.

I don't recall seeing this clip.

Good find, I had never seen this before. I remember being surprised at how loud it got in the 2012 playoffs. You could tell the fans were starved after not making the playoffs for 15 years.

Don’t forget there was a Ravens game earlier that day and the game was delayed for a while due to rain.  The fan base was starved and a good number of us in attendance were abundantly  lubricated.

Thanks for the share. The play by play voice in that video gives me a similar vibe as Jon Miller. He has a similar cadence. I like it! I wonder who he is and what his name is.

Thank you. It's no wonder it gave me nostalgic vibes. I used to hear him on the radio in my youth.

It's Joe Angel, not Fred Manfra.

Loved Manfra and Chuck Thompson in the early 90s when I lived on the Eastern Shore. We didn't have cable to get HTS. So, my father listened to all of the games on the radio.

Angel and Mafra were the best pair of announcers I think I ever listened to. I used to by the radio package online in the early 2000s.

2012... F-ck Raul Ibanez!

Whoops, totally right.
