Love this version of Connect Grid. Side note, it would be awesome if you guys could partner with a mobile game company and produce both MLB Connect and Ref Guess.
Fun Fact: Rich Hill would have qualified for nearly half of the boxes in the entire grid on account of bouncing around so much (Tampa Bay, Pittsburgh, Los Angelos, and Minnesota).
9:35 The Dodgers traded Jackie to the giants after the 1956 season, but unbeknownst to the Dodgers, Jackie had agreed to become an executive for the Chock Full O'Nuts coffee company and was going to reveal his retirement through a magazine rather than through the Dodgers
Gentry didn’t play for the Pirates lol. Also after watching these and the higher and lowers, I’m convinced the We Got Ice boys don’t actually watch baseball lol.
TBR ATL: Fred McGriff, TBR PIT: John Jaso, TBR LAD: David Peralta. MIN ATL: Eddie Rosario, MIN PIT: Francisco Liriano, MIN LAD: Sergio Romo. TEX ATL: Darren O’Day, TEX PIT: Jose LeClerc, TEX LAD: Adrian Beltre.
ATL-TB: Charlie Morton PIT-TB: Chris Archer LA-TB: Carl Crawford ATL-MIN: Josh Donaldson PIT-MIN: Francisco Liriano LA-MIN: Brian Dozier ATL-TEX: Charlie Culberson PIT-TEX: Edinson Volquez LA-TEX: Corey Seager
I feel like this needs a follow up. I mean you can't just end it after 4 people won. There needs to be an overall winner! Run it back, new teams, winners v winners, until one is left standing. I understand that's a longer video and required more editing etc, but Idk, it kinda felt like an empty ending.
Regardless of the two teams I always try and pick someone who has also played for the Royals. Pirate/Ranger kept tripping people up, but Steady Eddie Volquez ticks that box.
My Choices: 1st Guess Would Have Been Twins-Pirates: Chris Archer Rays-Braves: BJ Upton/Charlie Morton Rays-Pirates: Ji-Man Choi/Tyler Glasnow Rays-Dodgers: J.P Feirhysen (though it would not have counted because he hasn't pitched for the Dodgers) / Rich Hill / David Price Twins-Braves: No Idea Twins-Dodgers: Joey Gallo Rangers-Braves: Will Smith Rangers-Pirates: No Idea Rangers-Dodgers: Adrian Beltre/Corey Seager
What about a theme for RefGuess around players who have become announcers, broadcasters, or hosts, like Mark DeRosa or Keith Hernandez (though Keith would likely be way too easy). I think that would be a pretty interesting theme, particularly with the wildly different "quality" between the players that followed that path after their playing careers.
Ready for these names TB/Atl Sean Rodriguez TB/Pit Akinori Iwamura TB/LAD David Price Min/Atl Josh Donaldson Min/Pit Kevin Correia Min/LAD Brian Dozier Tex/Atl Ross Detwiler Tex/Pit Derek Holland Tex/LAD Joey Gallo

Jackie Robinson?! On the Rangers? A team that didn't exist yet? Yeah, I know they were the Washington Senators but the dude should be suspended from the game for 7 days for that guess.
Fun Twins alternatives: Braves: RA Dickey, Andrelton Simmons, Bartolo Colon Pirates: Bert Blyleven, Chris Archer, Pat Mahomes Dodgers: Brian Dozier, Nick Punto, Greg Gagne
Enjoy the new format, but as a spectator I can only challenge myself the traditional way. Fred McGriff Rich Hill Carl Crawford Joe Niekro Chris Archer Steve Howe Charlie Culberson Al Oliver Andrew Heaney
Jolly saying BLAST is trusted by MLB Teams??? Well sure as fuck ain’t the Yankees. We can hit shit. Send them some fuckin Blast Motion sensors. Damn. 💜
Pittsburgh/TX I was SCREAMING Bert Blyleven.
Love this tic-tac-toe take on the game. Great variation!
Also done by other channels already with great success
Love this version of Connect Grid.
Side note, it would be awesome if you guys could partner with a mobile game company and produce both MLB Connect and Ref Guess.
This would be AWESOME, definitely want this

Hobie with a WILD technique going for an already blocked box.
I love games like this. I hear of players I haven’t heard of in years!
9:35 The Dodgers traded Jackie to the giants after the 1956 season, but unbeknownst to the Dodgers, Jackie had agreed to become an executive for the Chock Full O'Nuts coffee company and was going to reveal his retirement through a magazine rather than through the Dodgers
I went with BJ Upton, Tyler Glasnow, Scott Kazmir, Josh Donaldson, Ryan Doumit, Joey Gallo, Gerald Laird, Mike Gonzalez, Corey Seager
Me at 1:01: There's 14 more minutes of this?
Me at 15:43: It's over already???
Great Game!
Liriano for the middle should be a layup... He was awesome.
15:00 Don't sleep on Terry. The man has a no-hitter.
Played for 11 teams in his career. My dad was business partners with him in the early 2000s
I was absolutely shocked someone said this answer
Guys im sorry you cannot have people on this game who 1) can't properly read the board. 2) Have to ask if Jackie Robinson played for another team.
Kenta Maeda for Twins Dodgers as well
Gentry never a pirate. Must’ve wanted game to end
Gentry didn’t play for the Pirates lol. Also after watching these and the higher and lowers, I’m convinced the We Got Ice boys don’t actually watch baseball lol.
Craig Gentry never played for the Pirates. Since I won, ill take a hoodie, XL please =P
jack and zo using up their collective brain cell
Okay, I love this format and competition! I need more!
Me screaming Justin Morneau at Twins/Pirates
Surprised Todd Frazier wasn’t said for Pittsburgh and Texas
You should do a MLB connect where they both answer a player for the box and the least known player named gets the square. Go by MLB appearances
Erm, Jolly. I don’t know how you allowed this answer, but Craig Gentry was never on the Pirates
I was about to say this same thing
What's he doing off camera if not entering these guesses into baseballreference?
Justice for Josiah
Watching Zo and Jack was painful
TBR ATL: Fred McGriff, TBR PIT: John Jaso, TBR LAD: David Peralta. MIN ATL: Eddie Rosario, MIN PIT: Francisco Liriano, MIN LAD: Sergio Romo. TEX ATL: Darren O’Day, TEX PIT: Jose LeClerc, TEX LAD: Adrian Beltre.

The true quicker moving battles were fantastic
Everyone forgot about Corey Seager
🤷. Maybe they just thought that if they said Adrian Beltre it would be cooler.
More of this!

Definitely keep doing this

Andy Can Slyke is a real player, solid one also back on those Bonds Pirates teams
Ready for these names
TB/Atl Sean Rodriguez
TB/Pit Akinori Iwamura
TB/LAD David Price
Min/Atl Josh Donaldson
Min/Pit Kevin Correia
Min/LAD Brian Dozier
Tex/Atl Ross Detwiler
Tex/Pit Derek Holland
Tex/LAD Joey Gallo
you gotta do a tournament version so you have one winner. bracket style
YU DARVISH had to have heard me screaming his name for LA/TX
Where you got Gentry on the pirates dog
More of this. A full tournament. Im sure Jolly can fit that into his schedule.
I thought of Mark Mathias for Pirates/Rangers lol
I thought Keone Kela because that’s how Taylor Hearn got to Texas
Fun change here, Zo with a legendary performance lol. Dan just better
Josiah choked so hard
TB-ATL: Travis d'Arnaud
TB-PIT: Rich Hill (Chris Archer & Ji Man Choi also counts)
TB-LAD: David Peralta
MIN-ATL: Eddie Rosario
MIN-PIT: Chris Archer (Rich Hill also counts)
MIN-LAD: Joey Gallo
TEX-ATL: Cole Hamels
TEX-PIT: Neftali Feliz
TEX-LAD: Adrian Beltre
Rich Hill works for 4 total squares since he was also a Dodger.
More please!
This was awesome!
Do a grid with every team that Jesse Chavez has played on
Hobie looks like Shorseys long lost brother
Jackie Robinson?! On the Rangers? A team that didn't exist yet? Yeah, I know they were the Washington Senators but the dude should be suspended from the game for 7 days for that guess.
Dan with the comeback!
Dan Canobio’s runs are always pure fuckin joy.
I was thinking of Fransisco Liriano too.
THIS IS GREAT!
This was great. Love the head-to-head aspect
Jolly with an absolutely heat outfit today 😮💨
Fun Twins alternatives:
Braves: RA Dickey, Andrelton Simmons, Bartolo Colon
Pirates: Bert Blyleven, Chris Archer, Pat Mahomes
Dodgers: Brian Dozier, Nick Punto, Greg Gagne
Twins/Rays and Pirates/Dodgers: Rich Hill
The head-to-head format is pretty sick. Like adding a pitch clock
Me yelling out Seager at Zo and Jack
i was screaming Chris Archer for sota and pitt
Super fun!
wolly wolive
Canobbio deep in his bag with Terry Mulholland
We can’t tell you’re in a different room with the green screen of baseball stadium behind you lol
That’s a green screen?😱
Enjoy the new format, but as a spectator I can only challenge myself the traditional way.
Fred McGriff Rich Hill Carl Crawford
Joe Niekro Chris Archer Steve Howe
Charlie Culberson Al Oliver Andrew Heaney
TB - collin mchugh, tyler glasnow, david price
MIN - josh donaldson, ryan doumit, kenta maeda
TEX - jake odorizzi, can’t think of anybody, corey seager
?, Glasnow, Crawford
?, Archer, Gallo
Hamels, ?, Seager
Hobie missed a gimme with Derek Holland. Was talking about the WS Rangers Team and everything!
I immediately thought of Neftalí feliz as a ranger and pirate. Also was I the only one who thought of texeira for Braves & rangers?
One thing that always kills me is how “baseball people” don’t know players before the 2000s. I kept yelling Bert Blyleven for Pirates/Rangers
doesn't seem like these guys know the rules of tic-tac-toe
They know the rules, just not the strategy. Except for Zo, he's special lmao
Kyle farnsworth, glasnow, luke raley
Kurt Suzuki, Chris archer, Logan forsythe
Jesse Chavez, Joakim soria, Andrew heaney
Random pitchers all over my board
Pirates and Rangers: Chan Ho Park, yo.
Love this version, Jolly! Keep it going!
why is the pittsburg-minnesota guess for Josiah Gray bleeped out
Dude on left had 2 1/2 minutes to win and say Liriano and didn't. As a twins fan it hurt. 😢
I’m surprised nobody said Bert Blyleven
Or Al Oliver, or Bill Madlock. There’s some great 70s players for that Pirates/Rangers spot.
No one heard me screaming Cory Seager during We Got Ice.
Justin Morneau for Twins-Pirates!
Rangers down the line
TEX/ATL- Will Smith
TEX/PIT- Keone Kela
TEX/LAD- Hanser Alberto
Josiah looking like a top 10 SP right now
I'm sure Zo is a great guy outside the office but the guy clearly does not watch baseball
Justin Morneau Minn/Pitt
Gentry wasn't a Pirate lol
Great idea but needs a timer
Keone Kela for Rangers/Pirates!
Eric Gagne. Texas Dodgers. That’s all I could think of 😂
everyone just forget about Darvish for LA/TEX? lol
screaming Francisco Liriano
Bert Blyleven for Twins/Pirates
pirates legend justin morneau
Talkin jake did what to BBD?
Carl Crawford Rays Dogturds
Keone Kela for Pirates/Rangers
I NEED Max Mannis vs BBD
For Rangers Braves, I was thinking Texiera.
I would’ve gone David price, Corey seager and Joey gallo and would’ve won
We need a Max vs the field
Jolly saying BLAST is trusted by MLB Teams??? Well sure as fuck ain’t the Yankees. We can hit shit. Send them some fuckin Blast Motion sensors. Damn. 💜
I’m disappointed no one went with Einar Diaz!
