Impemba always announces the game’s attendance when there is one out left in the game, and usually rounds down, for example “Bottom of the ninth, two outs, the Tigers are about to win in front of a crowd of better than 41,000 fans – 41,212 to be exact”. Impemba is also known for calling any catch in which the outfielder holds the glove with palm up a “basket catch”. His most common home run call is, “to the track, to the wall, gone!” Impemba, along with Rod Allen, called Armando Galarraga’s near-perfect game on June 2, 2010. After Jim Joyce mistakenly called the runner safe at first base on what would have been the final out (Galarraga would retire the next Indians batter to end the game), Impemba stated that he “never felt this disappointed after a Tigers victory.”
