Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson had an in-game interview during a spring training game Wednesday, but he didn't get many words in.

That's because he watched his pitcher, Jesús Luzardo, give up back-to-back-to-back home runs on three consecutive pitches.

The Phillies were visiting the Detroit Tigers in Florida when Thomson had the headset on in the bottom of the second inning of a scoreless game.

During the interview, Jahmai Jones went deep off Luzardo, resulting in a typical home run call by the ESPN crew.

"Looked like a changeup," Thomson awkwardly intervened.

The next batter, Andy Ibáñez, followed with a home run of his own in nearly the same spot.

Thinking they had some time, Karl Ravech thanked Thomson for "sticking with" the broadcast crew through the back-to-back jacks. Then, Gleyber Torres came to the plate.

Torres also went deep over the left field wall, and Thomson, quite literally, was speechless.

It was a six-run second inning for Detroit, which repeated that run total in the third inning. The game ended in a 17-7 victory for Detroit.

It wasn't exactly what Luzardo wanted after posting a 5.00 ERA in just 12 starts in an injury-riddled 2024 season.
