It’s the moment that had every Philadelphia Phillies fan stunned.
With the bases loaded in the seventh inning and Ronald Acuna Jr. facing Craig Kimbrel in a 3-1 Game 4 of the NLDS, the presumptive MVP swung and hit a ball to center field. Off the bat, it looked like a hit or maybe more. The Phillies’ Johan Rojas tracked it down for a catch that seemed to make it even more dramatic.
And like we’ve seen in other no-TV-noise videos like the Bryson Stott homer or the Bryce Harper dinger, the video with only crowd noise is amazing: It’s so quiet as Phillies fans nervously wait, and then it EXPLODES when Rojas makes the catch:
the silence – the explosion
