Minor-league baseball broadcaster soothingly announced an at-bat like it was a hole at The Masters

Golf is well known for its soft-spoken announcers and respectful, elegant broadcasting. Baseball, on the other hand, can get pretty rowdy when the situation calls for it.

Thankfully, we now know what baseball would sound like if it was called like The Masters after broadcaster Dan Hasty gave fans a taste of the other side. On Saturday, during the West Michigan Whitecaps High-A game, broadcaster Hasty slowed things down during the seventh inning. With relaxing music and everything, Hasty masterfully called an at-bat in his best golf announcer impression, which ended with an “exquisite” one out double for the Fort Wayne TinCaps.

If this won’t soothe you, I don’t know what will!

Perfect technique all around, gentlemen!
