Thuuuuh Master is back: John's Walkoff WinWarble hits 7:17 seconds

WinWarble
7:17 seconds
The walkoff warble is perhaps the greatest Zen moment known to the Yankiverse. It is the sound of one fan clapping – that one fan, of course, being the legendary radio voice of the New York Yankees, John Sterling.

After a slow April, in which The Master didn’t even bother to warble a few wins, John is hitting the mid 6-second range consistently. But no Lavoris-enhancing drug juices a WinWarble more than the walkoff homerun.

The walkoff adds a half-second to John’s THUHHHHH, allowing him to warble into a range heretofore visited only by Pavoratti and Spongebob. But nobody, not even Christina Aguilera, just snaps off a 7-second WinWarble unless the Yankees provide an impetus. Long thuuuuuuuhs don’t happen in Kansas City.

Yesterday, John’s Sterl Hurl topped off at 7:17 seconds. It’s here, mashed with the IT IS HIGH Grammy-winning "WinWarble Song," by the Deadly Spinners of SUNY Purchase.

Have you noticed that A-Rod goes straight for the hero's helmet after walk off wins? Why is this?
