C-3PO and Chewbacca are in the broadcast booth to call the Pirates game on Star Wars Night

C-3PO and Chewbacca show up in the Pirates booth

On a usual night, Greg Brown and Steve Blass would call the D-backs-Pirates game at PNC Park on Wednesday evening. On Star Wars Night, however, it's up to C-3PO and Chewbacca to call the game.

It makes for a truly out-of-this-galaxy viewing experience. And while Brown and Blass switched back to their normal human selves for the rest of the game, we can imagine how a C-3PO and Chewbacca called game might go.

While Brown would say something along the lines of, "That's laced into left-center field -- that'll take off and go all the way to the wall!" when calling Gregory Polanco's RBI double in the second inning, C-3PO's call is more, "Master Luke! Statcast™ readings indicate that right fielder Gregory Polanco has hit the baseball 322 feet into left-center field at approximately 97 mph."

And Chewie's: "Yeraghhhhhhhhh!" -- you know, for anyone who watching at home who might be fluent in Wookie.
