@@trumansteinberg2006 From my memory, due to poor play toward the end. Maybe I'm wrong and I'm thinking of him appearing in Ranger Stadium later on? if so, my bad!
Nelson Perez That Game was nothing outside of inept pitching on both fronts... exciting? yes... best WS game? Not even top 5... this game didn't just show momentum swings and comebacks... it showed destiny calling...
c Heath not best World Series game but for sure the best game of the 21st century. Can’t deny that that game had some of the best comebacks and finishing it off with a walk off home run.
One day here in cold Finland, I decided I'm gonna watch a full baseball game at random from UA-cam and see what it's all about. First game was some regular season game where the Giants beat the Dodgers. It wasn't a great game but still somehow attracting. I watched another one and this time I deliberately chose 2014 World Series game 7. "This is a goddamn exciting game to watch", I thought. Even though nothing that much happened in that game 7. Finally googling "greatest MLB games in history" brought me to watch Rangers-Cardinals Game 6. A grown man developed an fandom feeling from other side of Atlantic, because of a game played over 5 years ago and without any cultural roots to this game other than my own country's variant of baseball. Been a baseball-aficionado ever since.
To understand we need to rewind, 3.5 billion years ago a phospholipid bilayer randomly enclosed a group of amino acids, forming the the first simple life on Earth.
Let's talk about how shitty the call on the walk off was though! Joe Buck CONSTANTLY says stupid shit that he thinks has a chance of sticking and it ALWAYS sounds stupid and takes something away from the moment.
At the start of the broadcast, Joe Buck and Tim McCarver talk about how in the 80s Jack Buck made a call after a walk off hr that all he said was well see you tomorrow night. Find it funny that is what Joe picked to say after the home run in the 11th
The best part for me is the sound of the crack of the bat, then about a half second delay until the fans realize what just happened and the roar is deafening. Love it.
@ethancossey600 The trivia question of the game was "How many times has World Series Game 6 ended with a home run?" McCarver said, "I remember one, working with your dad in '91. Kirby Puckett, and your dad's famous call was just "We'll see you tomorrow night." " Literal chills when the baseball gods gave Joe the green light to drop that line again just a couple hours later, and Joe crushed it into the upper deck. The perfect call.
Scott Partridge this is the first time I've ever rewatched anything from game 6. Only rewinder could make me watch, that's how good this channel is, and I knew it was only a matter of time before they did this "moment in time" ...One of the worst nights of my sports life.
@@jonathandodd6712 Same. I think I've seen the brief clip of the actual Freese hits a couple times in passing, but man, did it pain me. And it took me until today to get into an state of emotional preparedness to actually watch this.
The next night was just as awesome. I attended Game 7. Not one ticket was for sale everyone wanted to be there! I’ll never forget it all thanks to David Freese. I will see to it I Thank Him in person!
I was there at game 6. My dad buying those tickets for my birthday is maybe the luckiest moment of my life, and I was just there to see it. We almost left, too, when we thought it was probably over, to avoid traffic. Me and my siblings superstitions won over my dad’s pragmatism that time lol.
I don't. I taped game 5, because I KNEW both guys were Cy Young winning pitchers still in high performance levels despite both being mid-30's at the time. Turns out I made the right call taping it, because it was above and beyond the greatest pitched playoff game I ever saw! Sure, you can have others where one guy pitches a no-hitter and whatnot, but to have BOTH guys pitching shutdown inning after shutdown inning like that? WOW!
Hell he had a rib removed just to still be able to play for an additional couple months at the end of his career. He was the nicest dude but maybe the fiercest competitor in baseball ive ever seen.
Had been a Cardinal fan since 1960. Was at my cottage in Northern Ontario, Canada, and was able to pull in a weak radio signal. With the lights out, and through the static, I listened as the Cards somehow managed to stay alive, down to their last strike twice, and then David Freese came to the plate. Just incredible. The greatest game ever. Great post.
His game against Carpenter in 2011 will always be remembered as one of the best 2 pitcher performances of the generation. We don’t realize greatness like that until its too late.
vvallejo85@aol.com no. Great run but not close. Cards shouldn’t have even been in the playoffs. Beat the juggernaut Phillies, then division rival Brewers, then reigning AL champs when down two strikes twice. Nationals run was great but not as good
Rewatching this in 2022 with Pujols back in St Louis for his final season & Wainwright pitching near his best again, shows the longevity of Cardinals Magic.
Saw him in the ballpark the other day at the game I was at. Those guys made my childhood can’t believe yadi, pujols and wains will be gone soon I will cry lol
PibKid 07 lolololol as a cubs fan, that episode made me very happy. But I gotta day, that two run homer from Rajai Davis almost gave me a heart attack. He played like a champ that night.
This game definitely deserved a rewind..I forgot how good that rangers team was.. I also hadn't heard the names Micheal Young and CJ Wilson in a long time
I used to be a big Rangers fan until this World Series. David Freese single-handedly killed my enjoyment of watching the Rangers game after game and I shall always remember his name in infamy.
You guys should make a rewinder episode of Joe Carter’s 1993 winning World Series walk off home run. Maybe later on, the Jose bat flip. Keep up the good work boys.
I’m a Ranger fan and I’ve seen this video for abt a week in the suggestions and I’ve debated if I should watch it... goddamnit ik Joe Buck’s commentary by heart now 😭
I remember this game, I'm a Yankees fan but I think this was my favorite W.S. game. What resolve and determination they definitely earned the right to be called World Champs.
This game was one of the greatest I've ever seen in any sport. As a Cardinals fan it was epic to see live. I still get chills when I watch or think about that World Series
Rumors around Dallas were that Cruz cheated in because he wanted to get to the celebration quicker. If you look at the three outfielders, you can see he is not as deep as the others.
That game took a few months off my life and I didn't even have a rooting interest in the game. That's how intense it was. To rally not once, but TWICE from elimination in the 9th and 10th was just insane.
I don't know how I can experience the same emotions every time I see one of those critical moments but they always hit me exactly the same. The freese triple, the hamilton dinger, the berkman bloop, we will see you tomorrow night. They never change. They never will. Thanks for the memories boys.
As a die hard cardinals fan, I disagree. I would put this series top 10 of all time but nowhere near best. I really feel bad for the rangers tho. They deserved at least one ring with that fire squad that they had. But I’m not complaining I’m very happy we won with all that trouble in the regular season.
As a Cardinals fan, I remember watching this game while working on a high school science project I had due the next morning. When Josh Hamilton hit that go-ahead HR in the 10th I almost turned off the tv because I thought there was absolutely no way they could pull off another 2 run comeback late in the game. Boy was I glad that I stuck with it because I got to witness the greatest ending to a baseball game I've ever seen.
As a Rangers fan, this is tough to watch even after all these years. The Rangers franchise still hasn’t recovered from this game to this date, but I hope one day we do. Congrats to the Cards.
MLB has a decent play-by-play video of it on their channel, but no narration to explain the stakes each team has that night. Seriously, the best regular season night in baseball history. I'm glad I was glued to my TV that night to take it all in live.
There absolutely needs to be a documentary or book on Sept. 28, 2011 - the last day of the regular season, when so much craziness happened in baseball.
The Texas Fox affiliate also sent out texts that the Rangers won the World Series when Freeze was still up to bat in the 9th! I am so glad I stayed up to watch this whole game!
As a St. Louis fan. This video is just awesome. You forget just how much we had to overcome that season. I’ll never forget what that team did that year for the rest of my life.
More like Carpenters Game 5 CG Shutout against friend Roy DOC Haladay. Did I mention the Phillies has the best record and it was an elimination game too.
My most respected baseball warriors,. Ny , NoCal, SoCal , My bros to the north.. yeah you Cubbies, andsome ofthe best baseball fans in that New England area.... None of you will experience the joy of this season. This was baseball heaven, from the grimness of opening day, to knowing our hero, our guy, El hombre, would leave afterwards...... So hard to explain, so many emotions.... For me... Unforgettable
This was the last Cardinals world series my father and I watched together before he passed away. The whole season was magic, I told him early in the season when it looked like a disaster that we're going to make this year. Didn't believe me but boy was he happy. There was only a few times I ever saw that grumpy old man happier and I'm damn glad Freese hit that home run.
being a lifelong diehard cardinals fan this game and this series will always forever be in my heart my father passed away 4 years after this and nothing will beat the feeling i got with my father in my underwear jumping and screaming after this this city and this team will always run through my blood and my veins
I was there with my brother. We walked outside to smoke after the Hamilton homer. We thought that was game/season. Came back to our 13th row seats to see Lance save us. Long story short, the energy in that stadium, prior during and after Freese. Un real. He went to Lafayette HS btw. 20 mins from me. He is a legend.
Texas was one strike away from victory, twice. One of the most painful moments in pro sports history along with the epic choke/comeback in SB51. And I’m not a Texas Rangers or Atlanta Falcons fan either.
I believe it was decidedly ecstatic and not painful in any way. One of the, if not the, greatest comebacks in baseball history. The stuff movies are made from.
@Jake True, but the difference with 2013 NBA Finals Game 6 is that at least the Spurs had multiple championships with the same coach to fall back on (not to mention getting revenge the next year). The Rangers and Falcons were both within centimeters of their first title, which definitely makes those two more brutal to watch.
...Now that was a Great! presentation. Thank you Brother. I lived it, right outside of the stadium standing next to my bicycle. Swear to God, I Knew we were not going to lose. I knew it sure as I knew the Sun was gonna rise the next day. 4 WS appearances in 9 yrs. Thank you, you did a fantastic job!....
“We will see you tomorrow night” LEGENDARY CALL I remember staying up and listening to this game on the radio and it gave me chills. Thank you for this video
@@dennischen5367 Nobody even cared about the Astros until Correa and Altuve. The killer B's had just made it to the Series 6 years before and got swept, and nobody even batted an eye. Maybe Texas has two markets now, but not then
Bruh, I remember when the stros sucked so badly that more Rangers fans would show up to Rangers-Astro’s games in Houston than astros fans.. man the good ol days
The Astros were a dumpster fire in 2011, and they weren't even really our rivals. They didn't move into our division until a few years after this happened.
As a die hard Texas Rangers fan, this still tears my heart in two just watching that triple and that home run, even without going over the magnitude of everything to get there. I was so mad when I saw that ball clear the fence. Now that I've gotten that out of my system, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL GREAT STORIES, do Alec Martinez's 2014 Stanley Cup winning goal.
I cannot fathom being one strike away from a world series TWICE in ONE game...
And still losing
Wasnt it 3 tines tho? 2 with freeze,and the other with lance Berkman?
I live in St. Louis...and I have some good friends that live in Dallas. It's something I don't bring up. Too much pain there.

and give me the Jose Bautista bat flip heard around the world in 2015
Umm game 7 of the ‘91 World Series?
I like game 7 of the 91 world series, but game 6 of that series deserves it more.
Ahhhhh the Kirby Puckett homer after robbing Ron Gant of an extra base hit...
1 of only 2 ever walk off HR World Series winners
The deep pain of a Rangers fan...
Feel this. I almost cried watching
This was too cruel for words.
It mustve hurt seeing the Astros win it all when y'all were so close at one time.
You have no clue. 1 strike away twice, and still nothing to show for it. I shall never ever stop hating Freese
14:28 Lance Berkman's two-out game-tying RBI single in the bottom of the 10th is the most underrated hit in World Series history.
he glofed that ball that he missed badly the pitch before,he was as clutch as it gets
As a Cardinals fan, I remember watching this game while working on a high school science project I had due the next morning. When Josh Hamilton hit that go-ahead HR in the 10th I almost turned off the tv because I thought there was absolutely no way they could pull off another 2 run comeback late in the game. Boy was I glad that I stuck with it because I got to witness the greatest ending to a baseball game I've ever seen.
As a Rangers fan, this is tough to watch even after all these years. The Rangers franchise still hasn’t recovered from this game to this date, but I hope one day we do. Congrats to the Cards.
It was gut wrenching. Hopefully they can figure it out and get back in the next five-ten years.
They made it back! 3 wins away from the title
Would love to see a Rewinder all about game 162 in 2011, with Longoria's walk off being the focus
MLB has a decent play-by-play video of it on their channel, but no narration to explain the stakes each team has that night. Seriously, the best regular season night in baseball history. I'm glad I was glued to my TV that night to take it all in live.
@@hardyworld it's one of my favorite memories as a Tampa Bay sports fan.
I already knew most of what you showed us, but that didn't stop me from getting goosebumps. This is one of those top-shelf sports' story.
Who here’s after he retired
There absolutely needs to be a documentary or book on Sept. 28, 2011 - the last day of the regular season, when so much craziness happened in baseball.
Here: ua-cam.com/video/LeFvO69_oSE/v-deo.html
I saw this game in my barracks after work. THE. BEST. Game of baseball i ever watched in highlights or otherwise. Intense as it ever gets.
The Texas Fox affiliate also sent out texts that the Rangers won the World Series when Freeze was still up to bat in the 9th! I am so glad I stayed up to watch this whole game!
As a rangers fan living in Missouri I’ll never forgive this man
Lol
Bring back the old music from season 1!
YOU GUYS BROUGHT IT BACK!!! The music at 14:44 is why I follow this channel. You should release that music.
Little Black Bags should be a requirement for this series
so awesome that this is in my recommended now that he’s retiring. what a great career, dave
As a St. Louis fan. This video is just awesome. You forget just how much we had to overcome that season. I’ll never forget what that team did that year for the rest of my life.
Caroenter's CG shutout on the last day was clutch...Braves meltdown was not...funny how the stars aligned. Great video!
More like Carpenters Game 5 CG Shutout against friend Roy DOC Haladay. Did I mention the Phillies has the best record and it was an elimination game too.
This hurts me so much as a rangers fan
It's going to hurt for a very, VERY long time.
Right? Freese was just as dirty in Game 7, that was two back to back chokes to end the Series.
Good
Yee that year I watched almost every game till the WS still awesome year no matter what!
I’ve gotta say as a rangers fan this may be the most painful moment in our history
My most respected baseball warriors,. Ny , NoCal, SoCal , My bros to the north.. yeah you Cubbies, andsome ofthe best baseball fans in that New England area.... None of you will experience the joy of this season. This was baseball heaven, from the grimness of opening day, to knowing our hero, our guy, El hombre, would leave afterwards...... So hard to explain, so many emotions.... For me... Unforgettable
This was the last Cardinals world series my father and I watched together before he passed away. The whole season was magic, I told him early in the season when it looked like a disaster that we're going to make this year. Didn't believe me but boy was he happy. There was only a few times I ever saw that grumpy old man happier and I'm damn glad Freese hit that home run.
This gives me chills, I remember watching this as an 11 year old kid and running around the house celebrating
Thank you for helping me relive one of the greatest ball games I ever had the pleasure to watch.
being a lifelong diehard cardinals fan this game and this series will always forever be in my heart my father passed away 4 years after this and nothing will beat the feeling i got with my father in my underwear jumping and screaming after this this city and this team will always run through my blood and my veins
Props to whoever made this. This was REALLY well made- ya did great painting the fantastical season of the 2011 Cards
The 2019 St. Louis Blues needs a deep rewind.
Here we are. As a Rangers fan, I dreaded that this day would come
Freese is still super clutch. I'm a Sox fan but when the postseason started last year he was huge for the Dodgers.
Beef history- Isaiah Thomas vs Jordan & Magic Johnson
Kobe vs Raja Bell
Tonya Harding vs Nancy Kerrigan
What y’all think?
They’d blow ‘Tonya’ out of the water
I think we don't need even more NBA content. This channel has basically become entirely basketball. Let us enjoy our MLB stories in the offseason.
Tanya would be interesting
Irie Harris I agree with magic and Isaiah specifically
I was there with my brother. We walked outside to smoke after the Hamilton homer. We thought that was game/season. Came back to our 13th row seats to see Lance save us. Long story short, the energy in that stadium, prior during and after Freese. Un real. He went to Lafayette HS btw. 20 mins from me. He is a legend.
*Allen Craig
Berkman had crucial at bats to setup both Freese moments. Great series! Go Cards!!
I feel like we need a rewinder episode on the last day of the 2011 regular season alone
Texas was one strike away from victory, twice. One of the most painful moments in pro sports history along with the epic choke/comeback in SB51. And I’m not a Texas Rangers or Atlanta Falcons fan either.
I believe it was decidedly ecstatic and not painful in any way. One of the, if not the, greatest comebacks in baseball history. The stuff movies are made from.
@Jake True, but the difference with 2013 NBA Finals Game 6 is that at least the Spurs had multiple championships with the same coach to fall back on (not to mention getting revenge the next year). The Rangers and Falcons were both within centimeters of their first title, which definitely makes those two more brutal to watch.
...Now that was a Great! presentation. Thank you Brother. I lived it, right outside of the stadium standing next to my bicycle. Swear to God, I Knew we were not going to lose. I knew it sure as I knew the Sun was gonna rise the next day. 4 WS appearances in 9 yrs. Thank you, you did a fantastic job!....
“We will see you tomorrow night”
LEGENDARY CALL
I remember staying up and listening to this game on the radio and it gave me chills. Thank you for this video
I cry thinking about this frequently (tears of joy of course)
4:32 "Lowe being in such a HIGH leverage situation..."
i see whatchya did there
Wife and I were there!
Standing room only, craziest thing I have ever seen. Praise StL.
You just had to show that Nelson Cruz clip that haunts me to this day...
F
i still remember watching this live. freese was magical. gives me chills rewatching the fairytale play out.
May the ghosts of 2011 be forever erased
Can't spell Postseason Dream without PTSD.
This World Series is like one big nightmare for all of Texas
Well except for Houston
@@dennischen5367 Nobody even cared about the Astros until Correa and Altuve. The killer B's had just made it to the Series 6 years before and got swept, and nobody even batted an eye. Maybe Texas has two markets now, but not then
Bruh, I remember when the stros sucked so badly that more Rangers fans would show up to Rangers-Astro’s games in Houston than astros fans.. man the good ol days
The Astros were a dumpster fire in 2011, and they weren't even really our rivals. They didn't move into our division until a few years after this happened.
WE NEED A WHOLE REWINDER FOR GAME 162 IN THE 2011 MLB SEASON!
As a die hard Texas Rangers fan, this still tears my heart in two just watching that triple and that home run, even without going over the magnitude of everything to get there. I was so mad when I saw that ball clear the fence. Now that I've gotten that out of my system, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL GREAT STORIES, do Alec Martinez's 2014 Stanley Cup winning goal.
I was waiting for this video. Finally!!! One of the greatest series in sports.
As a lifetime Rangers fan, I wish I could dislike this. But this is simply art, the best video SB nation as ever posted. Keep up the good work
