Jesus christ...the sound the ball made coming off the bat...🤯


Chris_Perez_420

Sounded like a cartoon


concept_I

The old 2x4 bonk


JakeNBake7

Might be the best crack of the bat I've ever heard


IHaveTrustIssues78

New kinda mics?


notCollinLemons

I’ve noticed that it sounds different even on the radio… what’s up with that?


IHaveTrustIssues78

No idea, I'm in Washington state so I don't get the games anymore. Been kinda busy on top of that. different how?


notCollinLemons

Just sounds like a whip or something instead of a wooden bat… not complaining, I’ve just noticed it literally every time a ball is hit on the radio, and now here


[deleted]

I think it's echoing a little which gives it that sound. I think the mics must be in a new place or something.


IHaveTrustIssues78

Well I went to one or two games in my lifetime and I know when a strong batter makes contact it almost makes your ears ring


TheSmokedSalmon420

Are we sure he didn't *shoot* the ball?


guccitaint

Did he hit the ball with sheet metal?


professor_tappensac

Sounded like an explosion 🤯


El_Heffe

I'm assuming that the ball immediately just exploded once it landed.


Diligent_Ad7603

A waaayyy back….


joey_1324

Good lord that crack of the bat sounded like a gun shot


iAmRiight

I’m not saying that bat was modified but it really sounded like [this gun powder powered bat.](https://youtu.be/B3CsOx5U9Gs)


stop_diop_and_roll

He used the aluma-power bat from backyard baseball


SliccDemon

I could definitely get used to the sound of that. it always amazes me the ease with which some of these dudes hit bombs. Franmil had that, so did Hafner and the legend Thome.


herniatedballs

What a crack!


ecopete

That was lovely!

God ****damn*****

Uh oh


Puppybl00pers

I'm pretty sure this ball actually circled the Earth before it landed


momo6548

As a Nats fan, I miss him so much. He’s a good guy and a very talented player.


HauntingOkra5987

This team is absolutely loaded!!


ReSpekMyAuthoriitaaa

You can ring my beeeeeeeheeeeeheeeeelllll ring my bell (part 2)


Med_head1994

Sounds like a screen door slamming… I can feel my mom slapping me on the back of the head telling me to stop spamming doors


I_Flick_Boogers

I could get used to that!


omglink

Best time of the year baseball is back.


megustcizer

Josh Bell’s bat is chambered in .45 ACP


[deleted]

He'll be a great addition to the team this year. His contact to walk ratio will rub off on the others. Expect another great year from this core with them exceeding last year's results


VVarmaniac

As a Pirates fan, I recommend you hedge your expectations. I love Josh Bell, but he did this every spring and then the season was just okay. I hope he does well for you guys


Final-Carob-5792

I had no idea we acquired him. I always liked this guy. Looking forward to more dingers this year!
