A clutch Yankees home run by Alex Verdugo results in another unusual call from John Sterling.

In a thrilling 6-5 victory against the Diamondbacks, Alex Verdugo came through for the Yankees in extra innings, earning a special home run call from the esteemed Yankees’ play-by-play announcer, John Sterling.

With the score tied at 2 in the top of the 10th inning on Wednesday, Verdugo launched a two-run home run to grant the Yankees a 4-2 advantage.

As the ball soared 395 feet into right field at 104.9 miles per hour, Sterling enthusiastically exclaimed, “He hits a high drive to right. That ball is high. It is far, it is gone!”

Verdugo’s memorable home run marked his first as a Yankee since his acquisition from the Red Sox during the offseason, traded in exchange for reliever Greg Weissert and minor league pitchers Richard Fitts and Nicholas Judice.

Sterling affectionately dubbed Verdugo “Alexander the Great,” a moniker likely to stick for the remainder of his tenure in pinstripes.

Reflecting on his pivotal contribution, Verdugo expressed satisfaction, stating, “First one with New York, big spot like that, it felt good. Seeing the boys get fired up, everybody’s barking at me, it was one of those ones that just felt good,” following the game.
