From the New York Daily News:

John Sterling does not yet have a home run call for Shelley Duncan. I find that shocking. When Bobby Abreu became a Yankee, Sterling had the whole "sweet as candy" thing ready to go for his first homer. I'd like to think that Sterling is sitting at home at night with a pen and paper, trying to come up with the perfect call for Duncan, and just hasn't found it yet. So I have a few suggestions:

&#8226; Duncan lines!
&#8226; Shelley hits a monster homer!
&#8226; Turn on the telly and watch that kid Shelley!
&#8226; Shelley is better than Rocco Baldelli!
&#8226; Duncan hits a donut!
&#8226; It's a Shell game!

All of these make me ill. But then, I don't have to listen to John Sterling. Hey wait, here's one that I think I would enjoy:

&#8226; That one's way back ... let us all now observe a moment of silence for the pitcher.
