Fever’s Caitlin Clark breaks silence on viral baseball announcing video<\/h1>\n

\"Fever<\/p>\n

Caitlin\u00a0Clark recently went viral for announcing a Milwaukee Brewers-Philadelphia Phillies baseball game\u00a0that she was watching on television. The video, which was recorded and shared to TikTok by Clark’s\u00a0Indiana Fever\u00a0teammate Lexie Hull, has received more attention than Clark likely ever expected.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn’t really know [Lexie Hull] was recording… I\u2019ve kind of been following the Phillies\u2026 I messed up a few times, but that\u2019s a hard gig! I was out of breath and exhausted\u2026 Shoutout to all the commentators out there.\u201d \u2014 Caitlin Clark \ud83d\ude05 (via @MatthewByrne1<\/a>)<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd that\u2019s not gonna be enough… We will be back in a minute with a 30-second break.” Caitlin Clark calling this baseball game is hilarious \ud83d\ude02 (via @lexiehulll \/ TT) pic.x.com\/edkge7ppzh<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cI told Lex (Hull) that sometimes I’ll just commentate some games,\u201d Clark said. \u201cAnd she’s like, \u2018alright, well do it right now.’ I didn’t really know she was recording\u2026 It’s just kind of fun. I\u2019ve kind of been following the Phillies so I kind of know some of their players and stuff. It was pretty funny. I messed up a few times, but that\u2019s a hard gig! Also, I was out of breath and exhausted so shoutout to all the commentators out there. I did it for like two minutes and I needed a break.\u201d<\/p>\n

Clark then described how commentating a baseball game is different than other sports since MLB has a lot of \u201cdead time\u201d that needs to be filled.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn baseball, there’s a lot of dead time so you have to find some random things to talk about,\u201d Clark continued. \u201cSo I was like talking about his shoes, talking about random stuff. A little different than basketball.\u201d<\/p>\n

So will Clark consider joining a team’s broadcast boost if given the opportunity to call a game?<\/p>\n

\u201cI don’t know if commentating is in my future but who knows? Maybe one time for fun somebody will let me do it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Well, the Phillies did not waste too much time before responding.<\/p>\n

Phillies invite Caitlin Clark to call a game<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Phillies play-by-play broadcaster Tom McCarthy\u00a0responded to\u00a0Clark’s video via the Phillies’ account on TikTok. The broadcaster invited\u00a0Clark and her boyfriend, Connor, to the team’s broadcast booth for a game.<\/p>\n

\u201cHey Caitlin, what’s going on\u2026 Great job the other day with that description,\u201d McCarthy said. \u201cGot to the hole, threw it comfortably over to first. You have a future (in broadcasting). And by the way, any down time you have, you’re up in the booth whenever you want. Bring Connor, too.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
