As Astros manager Dusty Baker spoke with the FOX announcing crew during Game 1 of the ALCS on Friday, Red Sox centerfielder Kiké Hernández hit a monstrous fly ball to left center.
“Oh Lord,” Baker said as the ball traveled far over the wall, chuckling slightly.
Baker — who was conducting a mid-game interview in the top of the third inning — had just finished telling the FOX crew that starting pitcher Frambers Valdez was laboring.
“Right now, he’s struggling a little bit,” Baker was saying as Valdez wound up to pitch to Hernández.
