What do you think is the MLB’s biggest rivalry?
Bonds vs rest
Yankees vs red sox
There is really only one Sox vs Yankees
red sox yankees hands down
Boston vs astros tryin to get payback from last years playoffs of course Yankees too
The best idea Fox ever had was putting Big Papi and A-rod on the screen together for analysis. It provides some amazing insight and they work amazing together.
Papi never cheated, don’t know what you’re on about.
Outstanding video. AROD is smooth. PAPI is simplified Algebra
molon labe IV Ortiz is not speaking his main language. If he was speaking Spanish. He wouldn't sound like a 2th grader. lol.
It’s called ‘Platano Power’ I believe. 😂
They lucked into it. Pete Rose was killing it with A-Rod too.
I can watch these 2 talk about hitting all day. regardless of how you feel about each team, what a great rivalry. The mutual respect between both team's stars was great.
Richard Duarte You are a smart men. I appreciate watching ARod and Big Papi all day long. And yes I do love the respect they have for each other as well.
I'd love to to watch Arod and Veritek talk about hitting... each other in the face.
hahaha this is great!!!
lol
That's the thing about Yankees and Red Sox players (& all other major leaguers), they'd much rather hang out and talk to each other than one of their fans that hate on the other team because like any other profession it's a fraternity.
I am Die Hard Sox fan for 51 years, and until just now I was wrong about A-Rod, I know about the PED's, not to mention he was on the Yankees, but seeing David and him talk and sharing some of the off field emotions and relationships really shocked me, so much for listening to the media. I am going to show this vid to my friends and start trying to not listen to the media which I am pretty about that now, but not in sports. Thank you for this insight, I really enjoyed it. Hey David, we miss you, and A-Rod, good luck in your future. Miss Manny too.
The media is always trying to divide people with their bs propaganda. I don't believe a word they say.
Their are Dominicans, that's why...
Media just want to sell their article but at the end, most of these guys are good friends. They go out to eat after the game. Sox and Yankees fans, we take the game too personal and at the end, we pay them buying tickets.
They put so much work in that it's unbelievable. If you can't respect that then you are likely a lazy person full of excuses.
My sentiments exactly, don't hardly think about Bucky dent much these days.feel bad for all the old Sox fans&cub fans that passed away before all these magic moments.
Over 1100 home runs worth of advice. No biggie.😅
and like 4 rings too
Jason I was being modest lol
Jinwook Male Like?
Encipher He was doing roids the whole time? I’d like to read about that, can you list your sources? Thanks
And over 1100 cc of roids
This interaction and analysis it’s probably one of the best I’ve seen in my life. Respect to papi and arod. And please world, cut arod some slack, we all make mistakes, legend of a player and a great analyst, you can see his love for the game so clearly.
I agree strongly..like it's hard not to wanna give him a break despite da P.E.Ds
Greatest baseball player ever periods
Isaac Gonzalez why just arod? Why not Bonds, McGuire, Clemens, Rose, Palmeiro, or Shoeless Joe? Stop being subjective and be objective.
I am open to others as long as there is a fair understanding of what really happened, The reason why I said Arod is because I am obviously referring to this interaction in particular. And a side note, I think that in terms of talent, arod was a step above all of those you named there. Straight 5 tool in his moment. Not trying to be subjective here buddy.
@@jonm8895 conseco claims 75% of the league was juicing when he played ... you gonna condemn the whole league or realize top athletes do what they must to compete at the top
I watched Manny and Big Papi take batting practice once many years ago. They were talking the whole time, and the word I heard most was "tranquilo"....... that emotion from A-Rod was maybe the most genuine thing I have ever seen from him....
you don't know how lucky you are. I saw a game with Papi/Manny, but BP.....I envy you
Two former great mlb players, now two great mlb analyst.
If you don't like and appreciate this then you need to give yourself several uppercuts ,pure gold .Shout out from Australia .
This segment just made me realize what a treat it was to see Manny play baseball
Loving A-Rod as an analyst. Great stuff here.
Agreed. No idea he was so good at this.
You think hes just another reporter at first glance, but then you remember he hit 700 home runs
Uh he was confirmed to have done steroids! How is he a model for any body in any job?
Literally the Da Vinci of hitting
been a few years now...great on commentary too
These two guys are gems together
A STEROID GEM
@@dajosee you still have to know the mechanics and many baseball players can learn from these guys regardless
@@Xenlacasa45 I'd be wary how much of their success was directly related to their cheating, but I hear you
Manny Was A Legend....He Doesn't Get The Respect Because He's A Rebel
The FactsRemain probably because he juiced too
Pound for pound one of, if not the greatest right handed hitter ever.
Manny was always a goofy dude he’s a goof ball and can’t take him seriously . But he does work hard and I guess that’s the reason why he doesn’t get the respect that he deserves
I have been saying this for ages. He made players like Thome, Ortiz become legends. My favorite all time
james david manning they all juice get over it
As a Sox fan, I love seeing these two talk about the game and have a ton of respect for A-rod after hearing all those stories... The Sox / yanks early 2000s will go down as one of the greatest eras in the history of sports... The only downside is every time I replay those moments of ‘04 in my head all I can hear is Joe Buck’s voice...
Danny Mahoney lol
Joe Buck and Tim McCaver,
The hate was real.
As a Yankees fan it was a pleasure watching the great legend Manny Ramirez play baseball wow what a rebel that guy was🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
Fuetaso IMO, the greatest right handed hitter ever
not only a great hitter, but also involved in the best "this is sportscenter" commercial of all time!
Zoggosh yes !!
Kidd Vedder Facts !
@@kiddvedder1460 miggy?
Fox Sports struck gold with these two. Watching two of the best players in sports greatest rivalry come together and break down how they were so successful is awesome.
come on its only baseball. I never knew how little the guys actually hit the ball. I watched my first game this week. 5 hours nearly and they hit the ball about 10 times. Thats 30min PER hit. really really not what i was expecting.
@@dpmaspam Thats why its well known that the hardest thing to do in all of sports is to hit a baseball
Bayliner do you know how hard it is to hit the ball? Human genetics weren’t meant to throw 95+ or have the coordination to keep up with it. The fact some guys can take a pitch that fast, keep track of its movement, is unreal.
fantastic unedited clip. im sure all us fans would love more of these
these 2 have a great friendship for TV i love them GO A ROD and PAPI. i have never seen a better chemistry for baseball on TV to watch.
Big papi and manny the best combination
República Dominicana activada...........🇩🇴
It's amazing that A-Rod may be almost as gifted a baseball analyst as he was a player. His curiosity and passion for the nuances of the game really come out when you hear him talk to other players and break down the smallest concepts and approaches to the game, very interesting to watch.
Thar was awesome. Thank you Fox.Alex and David... YOU ARE BOTH HALL OF FAMERS!
Daniel Pena their both steroid users.
Patrick McQuail a rod was caught, but when was papi? Please show me when that happened.
2003 year before The curse was broken
SeahawkFan1995 all the details i could find on that were extremely vague, and mentioned nothing of what he took, and never received any sort of penalty. Arod however, was caught and recieved a suspension for a whole season. The vagueness of papi's, and the punishment of arod, both who were stars on their team, make me think it was a false positive due to the new system that was being used to test in 03, if we can get more details on it, then i would admit i'm wrong, but this case, like i said, is extremely vague
Patrick McQuail so what?
Awesome how arod can make people understand what papi says. Perfect duo, both knowledgeable
Waoo a great message for all the baseball fans. They help each other even though they were on opposite team. They have a Win Win strategy.
I can hear A-Rod talking baseball for hours, really enjoy it
He is quite eloquent
He should also talk about the Drugs he used to cheat and Papi too
@@dajosee Most if not all of the league was juicing at the time since it was allowed by mlb plus everyone enjoyed that era of baseball
So it turns out...A-Rod is a human being. Cool.
Candy Banks lmaoooooo
But a baseball god
That is why he is doing all this, to try to get in the writers good graces come HOF voting time. If he looks like a good guy, he must be one, right?
True, he is. Also, this segment was fantastic by them both. But on a more serious note... F A-Rod. That is all...
@@benflikeid962 because nobody would ever want to talk about the game you dedicated your life too huh? A rod is getting in the hall either way.
This was so enjoyable to watch! Love that they mentioned manny too. My favorite baseball player! Ortiz & A Rod as analysts and talking baseball is fun to watch
Manny Ramirez my favorite player too. I thought I was alone, I still got EAs MVP Baseball with Manny on the cover.
@@hazardman79 yes manny my favorite player too Mvp was the best
top 5 position player all time and one of the greatest clutch hitters in history. It was a great privilege to watch them play and it's another great privilege to see them on TV
Thank you guys for making my childhood great. Some of the best baseball memories ever and the greatest comeback in the history of sports. God bless yall
a rod....legend....papi....legend.
manny....legend!!!
as i post this, david ortiz has had issues and is in hospital. all power and all love for this man and his family!
The Kross I met him and so many of my family and friends have in Boston! He’s literally the most humble and nicest man ever! Working at a place he often frequents in Boston - ive never seen him refuse an autograph. Ugh 🙏 Hope he makes a healthy full recovery! Just a generous, down to earth good human being! Pedro is also wicked nice. ❤️
Never thought we'd arrive at this point. But A-Rod is an absolute genius in studio. The batting segments he has done with Pete Rose and now Ortiz are absolutely must watch TV. Great stuff!
These 2 bring Yankee and Red Sox fans together. As a Yankee fan, I always loved Ortiz.
I used to hate so much this A-Rod when he was with the Yankees , but i have to say that when he started his relationship with Jennifer Lopez this man changed completely. the men even smiles now and I'm happy to see the way he is right now and the way he calls the games behind the booth. I guess Jlo really complimented Alex Rodriguez has a men and no doubt im 1 of his fans right now. Hopefully he can keep calling games for us for a long time in this present & future.
Absolute respect from these guys.
-From a Rays fan
One of the greatest conversation I've ever seen. So much learning from these 2 guys. Rivalry was only in the field!
I don't watch baseball much anymore but I always love hearing these two talk about the game so much knowledge and respect for each other it's great to watch
Mike Phillips why don't you watch anymore?
I would love to buy a David ortiz jersey BUT I’m a Yankees fan. We would never wear Red Sox gear but big papi is great and a smart mind for baseball
I'm a Yankee fan also, but in my case I'm Dominican so I went ahead and bought me the DR WBC Ortiz shirt 🤣
Lol, i feel you im a red sox fan, but respect jeter and mariano through and through
Not sure why Yankees fans actually put up a front like yall really hate the Sox. I’m from Boston and had some of the best baseball convos with Latinos in Bronx and Washington Heights. I respect Jeter but would never cop a Yanx Jersey 😂😡
I'm red Sox fan but have come to respect that great Yankee organization.probably the best teams ever back in the late 90s.stacked lineup.
Michael Duran saaaaammmmeeeee
Man PED's or not A-Rod was still a great player, And now he's doing a great job as an analyst!!!
same for manny and ortiz. they used PEDs too
SeamHead33 Can you list your sources for that info please?
Try a simple google search buddy. Its all there and public knowledge
I can't listen to him as an analyst. He is a liar and a cheater. How is he on any broadcast team with MLB?
@@MisterTwister88 Yeah I distinctly remember all of them getting caught unfortunately. Manny was taking steroids ment for women in order to avoid being caught.
Its can't get any better than this. This conversation is what I love about baseball
I could watch this all day. I really am loving how A Rod is doing this. Do they still have him doing baseball analyst ? He really knows how to do this it’s crazy how aware of the viewers he is. He knows not everyone can understand Big Papi and relays it back to us. Really frickin cool. Kinda strange seeing one of my city’s biggest legends giving away all his secrets to a Yankee but it’s incredible to watch this knowledge exchange! Big kudos to A-rod
This is amazing. I absolutely love these two chatting and reminiscing now. Those years of baseball watching them compete were incredible.
100 years from now this video will be a window of mlb history of 2 greats just having a conversation about baseball. Beautiful
As a life time Yankee fan I loved this two of the greats from my generation. I loved Papi just not in Postseason! Both these men were beast in the box.
I think for many years it was Red Sox / Yankees. The Yankees got the best of the Sox for so many years and it infuriated Sox Nation. The players were very aware of how the fans felt and tried really hard to overcome. In 2003 an 2004 the stakes were so high, it surprises me to hear that they tried to help each other.
I think it was only Ortiz and arod being that both are dominican that’s why Ortiz in this video kept saying “my brother” to A-rod
@@Xenlacasa45 Manny was from the DR also.
I would pay unlimited money to see a documentary (with subtitles (my Spanish sucks)) of these two and Manny chillin during their time in the league. Time machine patent pending.
I'm a Sox fan, and Dominican.. I have loved the Sox-Yanks rivalry since I became a fan around 1997-1998. I have mad respect for Jeter, Mariano and other great Yankees.
What a great moment for baseball! Two of the best to ever do it!!
2 of greatest players to ever play the game God bless you guys.
This is one of THE best sports videos let alone baseball videos ever. Every kid that plays a sport should watch this and see how even in the big leagues the game is no different than what they are playing now when they play against their friends etc.
I have never played baseball and I watched the entire video. Just the knowledge and wisdom coming out of their mouths made it impossible to click off
Dominicano!!!! I feel really proud of been Dominican everytime I see these two guys
A Rod with all these insight videos is awesome
There's another clip with A-Rod, Pete Rose and Frank Thomas that is excellent to listen to
If you're a player...that is some seriously valuable advice coming from one of the best hitters to ever play the game.
Grant that move will probably change the MLB now tbh. It's an accurate power move. A move like that came out in the sport of golf 2015. literally everyone is doing it now.
Watching these guys listen to each other is eye opening... you're never to good to learn
Alex rodriguez: i know big papi, please dont remind me! 😂😂 💪🏼
GO RED SOX !!!! A-ROD as a sox fan ty for all the memories you truly are a class act and an all time legend and not for nothing but man time flies by so fast seems like it was just yesterday you guys were on t.v. playing still
Manny was and still is my favorite hitter of all time. Lot of fun memories.
Proud to see two greats, two Dominicans do what they love.
A-Rod seem's like such a cool guy
Fuentinho, aaand, he's dating J-lo!
Magic. What we need is more analysis from the best players who did it. Great to see two Dominican men representing the Sport so well.
This is gold, Papi your a legend! I will never forget what u did for Red Sox nation in 2004 alcs
Wow! Impressive!! REALLY enjoyed watching these 2 storied players give their perspectives on the game they played and loved!!!!
Great piece right here by two phenomenal sluggers. The rivalry was and always will be great. This conversation sheds some light on all the hard work we don’t see and the camaraderie between baseball players.
The head bobbing subsequently from a high leg kick which takes your eyes off the ball is some amazing hitting advice of how a swing shouldnt be a bunch of moving parts but a smooth balanced approach.
Great great stuff!!!!
Dominicans where you at 🙏🏾🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
Brian Cruz Dyckman
rubaiyatc 😂😂😂
you got a BORI over here pero I love my domis para siempre
Fabian Cruz así mero coño
Comiendo mangu
Big Papi is a lot smarter than he looks. This conversation opened my mind a lot on him
So you're saying he looks stupid?
@@stevenmiller7747 Ya that's what he's saying
So you’re racist I see
@ jajajaja it's true negga
@@menehune1025 im dominican and he looks a lot smarter after listening to him. Hes always joking around you dont gotta call people racist for everything. Imagine someone like a comedian or someone like that is always joking. Once you see their approach you understand their philosophy.
Not everything is about race
I'm an A's fan and I have been my entire life. We have a nasty rivalry with the Redsox and Yankees but I love these 2 players dearly, a couple of legends. Good to see love and comradery between these two. Much love from an A's fan who hates your teams !
Wow that was amazing i never though they were good friends while having to beat one another often
I really enjoy seeing these guys talk about these things years later no longer as rivals
It’s nice to know that they would get together while playing against each other and give advice.
WOW, I could listen all day to the best talk about their craft. No matter what it is, I just respect excellence in any walk of life. In the interest of full disclosure, I was destined to play MLB, but I get in the way of destiny. 43yrs and I will live with that truth till the day I die.
Baseball...is like life...plannig....thinking ahead.. approach...and adjust...to situation..on every day...as like a game on every inning....and remember...every time the pitcher throws the ball to the plate....you never know where it will be hit...
I like how a rod helps papi pronounce his words
This is a great analysis between performing and not performing. As a Yankees fan, thanks for setting a pace, Mr. ORTIZ!
This is Amazing, two of the best Baseball minds! Students of the Game!!
Red Sox had curse of Bambino Minn Twins have curse of Big Pappi. He was a gap hitter with Twins. He then goes to Red Sox and doubles become homers. A miracle.
Alex Rodriguez is the absolute best baseball commentator.
Yeah and Fox and Espn both pay him at the same time Idk anyone else getting that treatment in sports.
Agreed
Que horgullo de ser Dominicano.. con esta dos extralla. En Representación. .
Yea Manny Ramirez,David Ortiz and A-rod 3 Dummynicans and 3 cheaters you must be soo proud. Roids,Peds & illegal drugs thats all Dominican ball players are about. All Dummynican ball players do is bring disgrace to the game. Son una desgracia.
Grew up watching these guys play and seeing them where there at now is awesome...thanks fornthe memories fellas. Btw, these are great segments
Who would've pictured these two legends working together and having some great time 16+ yrs later after that epic 2004?
We love this Kids Arod And Papi 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🔥👑💪💪☺️🙏🦁
A Rod is great honestly
Love seeing the mutual respect between these two sluggers.
As a Red Sox fan, my smile gets a little wider every time A-Rod calls him "Papi" hehe
Amazing stuff. Amazing players and people these two.
Biggg papi mío mío mío 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴💪
Best commentator combo - I actually search out videos by these 2 after listening to them this postseason.
Just a fantastic clip, fascinating insight from two of the greatest hitters of all time, could listen to them all day long
So much fun hearing these two legends talk about hitting
10:40 + you can tell how much respect A Rod has for Ortiz almost sounds like he wanted to tear up
These 2 need a show,this is dope,I grew up watching these guys go at it & dominate,Yank fan but good luck Sox
Nice teaching for learning preparations how to hit the ball in baseball .This is great for both hitters by Alex Rodriguez and David Ortiz.Nice pick and continue to do many shows like this.
This here is priceless! *PRICELESS!!!*
I miss big papa so much
I love this!!! Two of the greatest ever!!!
Greatest Cheaters
Alex's laugh at the end has me rolling!
Love this duo
Loved papi&red Sox,used to hate a-rod&yanks.yrs later have a ton of respect for both.
