I don't think he needs to. He's a "presenting" type of commentating rather than the "reactionary" type Like his commentary in ESPN's NFL games are quite off, because sometimes he's being emotional for no reason He just needs to adjust his commentary accordingly to the moments and not being too real to himself, IMO

@@redpillfreedom6692 SI has an old article on it: “A few weeks before the start of the 2011 baseball season, Buck underwent his eighth hair replacement procedure. But something went wrong during the six-hour-plus procedure. When he woke up from the anesthetic, Buck could not speak. He believes his vocal cord was paralyzed because of a cuff the surgery center used to protect him during the procedure. A doctor not part of the operation theorized to Buck that the cuff probably got jostled during the procedure and sat on the nerve responsible for firing his left vocal cord.”

@@robustbottlecapI can definitely see that. I do think he’s been “over-commentating” a little bit as of recently. His best calls IMO are the huge games he calls where he lets the moment speak for itself with some awesome well timed commentary. That Marshawn Lynch touchdown in the 2014 NFCCG is probably the best example of that.

Glad to see Buck's call of the Cubs winning the World Series got the #2 spot, for all the grief he got over the years he couldn't have captured that moment any more perfectly.

I miss him doing baseball ever since he went to ESPN. They should’ve offered him the Sunday Night Baseball gig along with Monday Night football.

6:19 "GOT IT!!" There's something I thought I'd never see Joe Buck announce in sports history. Normally I know Joe for doing baseball and football, but not golf. But man, I love how he said "GOT IT!!" when Gary Woodland sank that putt!

I really think his early career was held back by having Pat Summerall as the obvious go-to model within Fox, and with learning football on the job that meant an awful lot. Very few announcers can make that level of minimalism work, and Buck wasn't one of them. He's stopped being imitation Pat for 15-ish years now and he's all the better for it, and somehow I think an amazing number of people still think he never changed even as the change happened in front of the biggest audiences in television.

It took a long time for Joe Buck to blossom. But when he did, he gave us some amazing calls like the end of the 108 year drought and Minneapolis Miracle. It only got better when he moved to ESPN, where i think he's at his best currently. Also the man can beat someone in a roast battle. 😂

Cleveland Cavaliers were down 3-1 in the NBA finals to the 73-9 Warriors and came back and won in 7 games in 2016 The LA Kings were down 3-0 in the playoffs in the NHL and won their series it occured in the 2010s What the cubs did was significant by winning the series down 3-1 but in terms of magnitude it’s not the best

For my 23 years of watching MLB on FOX hearing Joe Buck brings back memories especially the ejections and benches clear. World Series as well.

I cannot believe this man stopped calling MLB games

It seemed like overcoming that vocal chord ailment he had in 2011 gave him a new perspective with having his voice fully back. 2012-onwards Joe Buck is definitely one of the top voices out there, with so many big-moment calls. Big Papi grand slam, Ishikawa wins the pennant, the Cubs 2016 run in general, the Minneapolis Miracle, 28-3, the list goes on and on.

I know the Cubs win was special but his best call that night was the David homerun late to tie the game. Should've put that one in honestly.

I was happy to see Ortiz's grand slam in the 2013 ALCS make the top 5 - Buck's call and tone of voice really set the scene to match how hard Fenway Park was rocking - but I would have put the Cubs winning the World Series as Number 1.

I ain't never seen him hype in baseball game😭

No way the Diamondbacks WS winner call is lower than the Yankees winning in 1996, let alone most others. When you defeat a 3-time defending World Series winner with a walk-off, plus coming out of 9/11, automatic top-5!

I thank God everyday joe buck doesn't do NBA, I'm sorry but he just takes away from so many of these big moments.

Idk how you made this without your ears bleeding

I never understood the hate on Joe Buck. He’s definitely better than guys like Matt Vasgersian or Joe Davis who seem to think the key to good announcing is just screaming as loudly as possible

The voice of my childhood

No love for "Caught by Tyree!"?

As "bad" as a call it is, the Randy Moss moon call should be on here

He should start calling NBA & College basketball games

I think the Freese homerun call should be #1 honoring his dad with the Cardinals in that moment

The Tampa Bay vs Green Bay game was the biggest fix to make sure that Tom Brady was the first quarterback to play the Superbowl in his own stadium

#30 My favorite Floater, centerfield, the Diamondbacks are world champions

I used to hate this announcer, now I think he's underrated, actually, no, he may be one of the best now. ESPN really brought the power in his voice. I still quote some of these calls to this day. #1 will always be his best call.

That call on Desean Jackson’s punt return is top notch

I like Joe Buck.

I never knew that Joe Buck called golf.

His call of Big Papi’s 2004 walk off was better than #3 but it’s not even on the list. I have disagreements on rankings, but the only other thing I can think of that is missing entirely is his call of Wong getting picked off to end the game in 2013.

Here are some Joe Buck calls from baseball (honorable mentions): Mark Whiten’s 4 homer game against the Reds, 1993 (watch till the end): kzread.info/dash/bejne/faCOsKWjhbW5h84.htmlsi=YacJ8s45PGnl3HvY Jim Leyritz’s HR in Game 4 of the 1996 World Series: kzread.info/dash/bejne/nWmMzpaPpsq7j9o.htmlsi=y9JteQW9jbyo2h5L

One call that is missing here is Howie Kendrick's Game 7 Seventh Inning home run in the 2019 World Series.

Where’s “Mitchell… Mitchell… Mitchell.”? His best call. Thought it’d be #1.

My favorite one is: Mitchell... Mitchell... Mitchell...
