John Sterling's home run calls for Yankees

John Sterling's home runs calls for Yankees are quite the thing around here. Whenever a new player joins the Yankees, a little section of the vast social media world wonders and guesses at what Sterling's home run call for that player will be.

Here's a collection of Sterling's home run calls through the years, beginning with current Yankees followed by former Yankees, in alphabetical order.

Current Yankees

Oswaldo Cabrera: "Oswaldo Cabrera. The wizard of Oz."

Aaron Judge: "All rise! Here comes the Judge! On Judgment Day, he homers to [location]!" It has become: "A Judge-ian blast . . . It's Judge-ment Day, and here comes the Judge."

Oswaldo Peraza: "Peraza. Perfecto."

Juan Soto: "There is a Soto photo," followed by a melodic "He's Juan-derful, marvelous."

Giancarlo Stanton: "Giancarlo, non si può stoparlo! It is a Stantonian home run!"

(The first part of the phrase roughly translates from Italian to, "Giancarlo, you can't be stopped!", though the proper Italian word for "stopped" is "fermare." Sterling appeared to use "stoparlo" for rhyming purposes, though he used "fermarlo" on later home runs before switching back to "stoparlo".) Sterling also used this call for Stanton: (singing) "Non dimenticar, that ball sure traveled far! Giancarlo! It is a Stantonian home run." (The first part of the phrase translates to "Do not forget.")

Gleyber Torres: "This is Gleyber Day! And he is the Gleyber of the month!" as well "Like a good Gleyber, Torres is there!" It has more recently been combined to: "Oh what a Gleyber Day. Like a good Gleyber, Torres is there."

Jose Trevino: "Hooray, Jose!" which later became "Ole, Jose!"

Alex Verdugo: “Alex Verdugo! . . . Alexander the Great trots around.”
