Caitlin Clark may already be trying her hand at a second career.
As the Indiana Fever prepare for their first playoff series since 2016, taking on the favored Connecticut Sun in a highly anticipated matchup in the first round of the WNBA postseason, Clark tried something new — baseball announcing.
On Wednesday, the Fever star and Rookie of the Year was on call for a Brewers home game against the Phillies from a bedroom, it turned out.
Teammate Lexie Hull pulled out her phone and recorded Clark “calling the game” from the room.
She even tried using the “transmitter’s voice”.
“Runner on first, no outs… this is taking… somebody to the plate,” Clark said at one point.
That someone happened to be Garrett Mitchell, a Brewers outfielder.
She added a few more calls in the inning, even noting Phillies starter Aaron Nola’s blocks, which drew plenty of laughs from Hull.
Clark couldn’t keep a straight face either, smiling through her calling of the game.
In the comments on Hull’s video after it was posted, Clark apparently tagged the Phillies, asking if they will hire her.
Clark, making his first playoff start as a pro, and the Fever face a big test against the Suns — who have the best defense in the league.
The best-of-three series begins Sunday at 3pm Eastern on ABC.
