Home-frickin'-run!
The Scout

Home Run is the taunt kill unique to the Sandman. Upon the Scout equipping it and taunting, he will point to the sky (a homage to Template:W), wind up and swing with an extreme force that will launch anyone slow, unaware, or simply unfortunate enough to be caught in the attack, flying over a ridiculous distance. A successful hit will result in the cheers of an invisible crowd. Overall, the attack has a 5 second wind-up time, making it both the longest taunt in the game as well as the longest kill taunt.
