WASHINGTON -- Longtime Philadelphia Phillies broadcaster Harry Kalas, who punctuated innumerable home runs with his "Outta here!" call, died Monday after being found passed out in the broadcast booth before a game against the Washington Nationals. He was 73.

"We lost our voice today," team president David Montgomery said, his voice cracking. "He has loved our game and made just a tremendous contribution to our sport and certainly to our organization."

The games are going to be so different without this man.  He is the voice of the Philadelphia Phillies.

R.I.P.  Harry Kalas

Jeez, this makes me feel like it's a miracle the Yankees announcer is still alive at 98.

Died in the booth? That's horrible. Guess he died doing what he loved then...

RIP.

Not so sunny in Philadelphia?

All jokes aside, seemed like he had a good life doing what he loved.
