More than anything, I wager that David Cone's choice of words has more to do with the insatiable pressure that some announcers put on themselves to fill dead air or to feel as if they're adding their perspective to the telecast (especially if they happen to be a former player). Nonetheless, the five-ish seconds of silence that follows is so wonderfully predictable. In the future, maybe David Cone to stick to perfecting his John Sterling impression.
