SG02 fair enough. I was actually never a bandwagoner though. My first MLB game was in Yankees stadium in 2001 and I was a Yankees fan after that. I live in VA though so the Nats are my favorite team ever side Jeter retired.
His left foot should have been a bit further back towards the outside of the plate. It could have produced a beautiful long double between the CF and LF
I remember watching this live. One of my favorite moments of the 2009 season. The bench reaction was great. Wished that ball dropped in for a hit for Mo ha ha
In an inter-league game in a NL ball park like Atlanta prior to 2022, the AL visiting team like the Yankees cannot use a designated hitter in place of their pitchers so they have to hit for themselves even the relievers.
I'm sure someone at ESPN NY is talking about he doesn't deserve to be a first ballot HOF player because his batting WAR is so low. Those people are total haterz.
He's got a great swing, wish he would have gotten to bat more often. Just a natural.
+Dwide Schrude He was a shortshop during his amateur days in Panama.
+NJGuy1973 heh, the irony of that.
The Yankees didn't sign him as a shortstop because of his "lack of hitting ability"
Textbook swing, good contact, just had the misfortune to hit it straight at the CF.
2009 was the most fun Yankees team since 2000
He was an infielder when he was signed in Panama. He knows how to bat.
Damn, now I wonder how his Yankees career would've been as a batter.
@@christendo5733 Probably some below average to average batter that would get sent around to a bunch of different teams throughout his career.
Almost a decade later, and this still brings a smile to my face.
Damn I was hoping that would fall in. Mo is awesome.
haha, this made me smile. Love seeing ball players enjoy little things like this.
That’s exactly why their shouldn’t a universal DH. It would take these moments out of the game!
That swing was beautiful
this is just awesome. major leaguers having this fuch fun
The person who disliked this doesn't like baseball. ONLY explanation.
Make that 28 people who don't like baseball now. But yeah, MO fo eva.
I swear, that man would have been a hall of fame center fielder if he wanted to.
He probably would hit better than most of the Yankees today.... gotta love Mo!
Yeah I stopped rooting for the Yankees after the core four all retired. There was something special about them
@Joker A lot of success for the Yankees in the near future. Don't bother coming back to the fan base then.
SG02 yeah you see that's why I left the fan base...
Joker. I'm just saying man fans that leave and come back, and hop on and off the "bandwagon," are annoying and give actual fans a bad name.
SG02 fair enough. I was actually never a bandwagoner though. My first MLB game was in Yankees stadium in 2001 and I was a Yankees fan after that. I live in VA though so the Nats are my favorite team ever side Jeter retired.
Only if that was in left or right center! Damn
CCs reaction priceless
Tfw mo turns out to look like a decent hitter
He actually played Short in Panama, he knew how to swing it
Not a Yankees fan. Never will be. But that’s great lol
damn i miss this YES scoreboard
please bring it back
Wow, he got a really nice swing on that pitch.
Remember when cano batted 8th lol
Jack Rosen He wasn't batting 8th. Rivera came in in B8 and pitcher's spot was due up second so they double switched the pitcher to the 6 hole I think.
Jack Rosen cano batted 8th his whole career till 2010.
Proof?
Who’s here after he hit an inside the Parker in the old timers game?
His left foot should have been a bit further back towards the outside of the plate. It could have produced a beautiful long double between the CF and LF
That was nice to watch.
Melky was juicing him up.
Shane Denney iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
U could see him smile when he made contact
He actually had a really nice swing.
he hit pretty well frankly speaking, if he is a hitter,, he is going to be HOF well with 3000 hits
That was a pretty nice ass hit.
lmao, CC just jumpin up and down in excitement
Pretty good cut
very funny, I think Mariano did a run batted in once
he did, on a bases loaded walk vs. the Mets in 09
That little exchange between Mo and Cap at :22
Why didn't they use a pinch hitter
He's the closer. Why would the closer be pinch hit for
Not just a closer the greatest closer
If the pinch hit him, they can't send him out to close out the game.
I remember watching this live. One of my favorite moments of the 2009 season. The bench reaction was great. Wished that ball dropped in for a hit for Mo ha ha
I'm sorry can someone tell me why he had to batt?
Playing in Atlanta. He pitched the inning before and they wanted him back out so he had to hit.
In an inter-league game in a NL ball park like Atlanta prior to 2022, the AL visiting team like the Yankees cannot use a designated hitter in place of their pitchers so they have to hit for themselves even the relievers.
ooooh he knows how to hit
awesome moment for #42 Mo. he did try.
shaq played for the NYY?
MaxTheRipper vvvvbldvoedk
Nice Contact.
yup, k-rod walked him with bases loaded.. haha
We just going to rip this random entertainment out the game for good?
He used to be a shortstop
Damn that was cool , would have been awesome if he got on base!!! Still a thumbs up for me
Nice try Mo!
swing like nomar garciaparra
maybe, but if he was he may have been traded
Good shit
I hate the Yankees. Rivera is a class act but that was some good form.
Kiss my ass
What happened
SICK COMMENTS FROM SOME
still better than bj.
Bj?
@ 1:15 that made me grin.
I'm sure someone at ESPN NY is talking about he doesn't deserve to be a first ballot HOF player because his batting WAR is so low. Those people are total haterz.
Wow i look back on that comment. Not only was he first ballot but first payer to get 100% of the votes.
Hall of FAMER

#DitchTheDH
