| Sam Horn is a former baseball player who spent parts of 8 seasons in MLB and is now a cable television anchor for New England Sports Network, the flagship station of Boston sports teams. The 1982 first round draft pick of the Boston Red Sox, Horn hit .278 with 14 HR in just 158 at-bats as a rookie in 1987. Though he did hit 23 HR as a member of the Baltimore Orioles in 1991, the powerful 6'5", 250 pound first baseman never lived up to the power potential he showed that first year. During his career (1987-1995) with Boston, Baltimore, Cleveland, and Texas, Horn hit .240 with a total of 62 HR. Horn is perhaps best remembered as the origin of the term horn, referring to the act of striking out six times in a single game, a feat Horn accomplished in 1991 while with the Baltimore Orioles. Horn currently works for New England Sports Network, providing analysis on Red Sox post-game shows. Horn's catch-phrase is ka-pow, which he exclaims whenever a Sox player hits a home run. The Red Sox fans' message board website called Sons of Sam Horn, which has also been used by Red Sox players (i.e. Curt Schilling) and management (i.e. John Henry), is named after Horn.
