I don’t care who your team is, every fan of baseball needs to celebrate these moments.
yup, i’m a marlins fan but damn this was awesome to watch
Reds fan 🤙🏼 I agree with you 100 percent.
Mr Wilson is an inspiration to anyone and everyone!!! 😊
You just took the words right out of my mouth. The true baseball fan doesn't care
Cool moment for sure one of the many things that makes baseball great. But I'm disappointed that his teammates didn't give him the silent treatment, not sure I could have either.
I am sure Wes Wilson will come back to this video to show to his kids and grandkids. what a valuable piece of history for him!
Lol
Not to mention it was also Michael Lorenzen's no hitter
@@jakekrueger7854 and they sold 4,500 nachos
And they will be like "what was going on with people's hair back then?"
would've been cool if the dugout had given him the "silent treatment" after he finished rounding the bases 😂
I love his father's reaction because any dad worth a damn would be doing the same thing. What a night to be a Phillies fan.
many of us dad's are smiling watching his dad's reaction. We can all relate :)
@@CalTek 100%
I don't even watch baseball, but I came here to see this! I'm so happy for this young man, his family, his team, and their fans!
same with me.
Wes hits his first career home run during his first ab. Nick Castellanos hits his 199th and 200th career home run, and Micheal lorenzen throws a no-no during his first start as a Phillie in CBP. You can’t write this stuff. What a magical night in Philly. ❤
Liam Castellanos was also everywhere and hugged both Wilson’s wife and Lorenzen mom….. he’s the real mvp tbh.
It was a very magical moment for Fans, Players and family members. Michael Lorenzen was awesome throwing a no hitter, Weston Wilson first homer was a magical moment! Go Phillies!
Problem is it happened in Philadelphia. Disgusting
@hahahajackmyswag Sounds like a personal problem. Get some help for that.
It was so amazing. Wes' family going nuts was great enough, then Lorenzen making all of Philly even more proud, and there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that'll be a home run. And so that'll make it a 4-0 ballgame
The kid with the fu shirt right in front of the family must have been a pain for the camera man.
Any parent who has gone down the baseball journey with their son knows exactly what they are feeling, at least to some extent. A solid decade of pure commitment from the player and his family, half or more of each year on the road in tournaments, nonstop practices, all of the emotional ups and downs and sacrifices made, all coming to a head at one moment. You can just see the pride he has for his son. Very special.
Well said. And even when after all that time on the road in tournaments was spent and you're exhausted and the end of the journey doesn't end in MLB, the journey and time spent with family and friends was a prize in and of itself and some of the best years of our lives.
@wasntme7845 I've spoken to people that had a daughter play in competitive fast pitch softball and it's the same - only their "MLB" is landing at a D1 College, so the experience is the same - even when your kid doesn't land a D1 school or the Pros. It's an intense tournament circuit that is at a demanding pace.
This stuff gets me every time with the family. I love it. Great job by the broadcast crew capturing all that. Congratulations Wes!
Me too!
These are the greatest moments in sports! Everyone that played as a kid dreams of this.
Gets to play in the big leagues for the first time, gets to hit a homerun in his very first at bat in front of his family, and he even gets to celebrate with Bryce Harper a 2 time MVP, when he gets back to the dugout, thats a special moment
0:07 The man’s shirt🗿
That kid in the green shirt in front of the family, yikes.
That dude definitely puts cats in his microwave
That made me shed a few tears. Not a Phillies fan and I don't know who this young man is, but what a great moment.
Congratulations to Wes and the Wilson family. Kudos to the announcers for a wonderful call and commentary.
Congratulations Wes. I watched it yesterday and I'm crying again today. Dad stuff really gets to my heart strings as my father has passed and I now have a 4 y/o boy. Incredible moment.
Can't imagine what it would be like raising a kid, taking him to all the little league games. Watching him in HS and everything. Then to see him live out his dream and not only that, but Homer his first at bat. No wonder dad cried.
Dads been ready to ride that kids coattails to millions of undeserved dollars since he could walk and had baseball pushed in his face.
@@Mr_CAM0 What kind of family life did you have that would make you believe this father just wants to get rich off his child? Did daddy not give you enough hugs as a child? What a rotten thing to say.
@@Mr_CAM0Daaaaaddy, Daddy didn't care.
@Mr_CAM0 show us where the bad man hurt you.
It was probably one of the proudest days of his life. Imagine the greeting he got at work.
I'm a Giants fan but that was a very special moment, that was awesome.
His family, his teammates, the fans….this is what baseball is about! Goosebumps and tears, congrats Wes!!
That was such a cool moment! So happy for him and his family!
Never heard of him before this and aren't a Phillies fan. And yet, how happy and proud I am of him. What a moment! I'm envious!!!!
Dad kept himself together A LOT better than I would have.
I agree.
I would've been moonwalking on the seats.
Lmao I couldn't stop laughing after seeing dudes shirt in front of the family.. Who wears that to a ball game? Hahaha
Mets fan here,CONGRATULATIONS, so happy your family was there to see it
Always great to see this. Blue Jay rookie Davis Schneider hit a Homer his first AB days earlier in Fenway in front of his family and set a major league record with 9 hits, 2 homeruns in his first 3 games. Love seeing this special moment shared with family members.
I’m crying like a baby lol😂
This is very emotional for me. Thank you Dad for playing catch with me and my brother even if you just came home from a hard days work as kids and for always being there at our little league games rooting for us and for being proud of us we love you Dad and we miss you so much
I’m with you 💯. My dad would be asleep on the couch and would get up to have a catch with me.
Rookie hits first home run in first AB and starting pitcher makes debut with a no hitter. All in one game.
i have a ball from him and i went to one of his games!! i remember going in nashville and sitting next to his grandpa.. he told me i could get a ball but i had to leave early.. so instead of just a ball i got a note and everything on the ball and a note away from it. i’m so glad because i spent 2 years saying “why isn’t he in the major leagues yet” and now i see this!! i will forever keep that ball i got :)
My god that was a bomb
Love his dad's emotion. And Harper top step waiting on the rookie says everything you need to know about who he is as a teammate ❤❤
Followed by a no hitter
Came for the homerun, stayed for the emotional aftermath.
Bryce Harper was like " I used to be able to do that " .😁
The kid in the black shirt in front of the family, stay classy my guy. Great shirt for the ballpark. How was that allowed in?
S/o to the kid in the front with the F U shirt 😂
Anybody else catch Casty’s kid showing up in all these highlights? Obviously his dad when he hit his HRs, during this HR, when Wilson later stole 2nd, with Lorenzen’s family at points. He’s like the unofficial ambassador to the team’s families.
Great family video for generations of their family to cherish. Although the fan in the bottom right corner just in front of them wearing the shirt with the big F**K YOU written across will now always be in that shot with them, so that’s a shame. Some people just don’t know they’re idiots, despite mirrors everywhere.
I don't even watch baseball, but I love when a player hits a home run on his first at bat in the major league, especially when they show the family's reactions.
Andruw Jones hit a home run in his first 2 World Series at bats in just his second year in the Majors .
oddly enough this wasn't even the most memorable part of the evening
Every young ballplayer dreams of this moment
I doubt I’m the only person crying watching this haha such a special moment
The baseball grind just to make it to the majors makes a man out of any blue chip kid and humbles them daily along the path. That’s why this sport is so unique, the men who succeed in it have been through the mill of self doubt, financial insecurity, disappointment and perpetual hope. The father’s tears were s deeply heartwarming moment of joy knowing his son had made the most of a beautiful opportunity and also reassurance all those hours playing with the boy made his dreams come true!
The guy in lower right's profanity laced t-shirt ruins the family photo at 0:09.
This is especially meaningful, because it took Wes Wilson so long to get a chance in the Major Leagues.
Whatever becomes of his career,this can't be taken away. He hit a HR at the highest level of baseball
Absolutely
Damn! Seeing dad tear up. I think I got something in my eye.
Please tell me I’m not the only one laughing at that baby getting scared 😂
And how can you top this moment? Mike Lorenzen fired a no hitter in the same game.
And then against the same team he hit his first hit and HR against, he gets the 10th cycle in Phillies history.
First guy to greet him at the dugout was Harper. What a teammate.
2 families crying of joy yesterday.
Black guy has an uplifting message to share with folks tuning in 0:07
not a phillies fan but seriously love this moment for him and his family
Something special is brewing in Philadelphia again it seems….
Bro he looks exactly like eric hosmer
Too bad it took me like 50 tries to hit a HR in his MLB the show 23 moment. I was cursing his name. 🤣🤣
Congrats to Wes, that was a big 429 ft home run for his first in the MLB. The Phillies just keep getting better now that they have Bryce and Lorenzen, and if Wilson can have a good rookie season they could be even better. Good luck to Wes and the Phillies
Not a Phillies fan but ANYTIME you hit a home run like that, with your family there, that’s cool no matter what team it is. If I had been the catcher, I would have said something positive and/or slapped his back or hand. I hope the girl gives the ball to him, without holding it for “ransom”.
I will remember this game for the rest of my life. What an amazing series of events.
I'm as Philly as it gets but this is what baseball is about. Family, hot dogs, cold beer, seventh inning stretches. Baseball.
Don’t forget free masonry
0:07 T-shirt on the guy at the lower right
No one can take that away from him...
Peep homeboy shirt 😂😂😂😂😂
Congratulations wilson, you deserve it.🎉. Welcome to Philly 😊😊
That’s the best, what a great feeling it must be.
The Dad crying definitely made me cry 😢
How can you NOT smile watching this
The guy in the green shirt at 00:07
Wow. What a moment.
It’s gonna be difficult for him and Rojas to stay once marsh and pache are back from IL. I’m glad Wilson’s getting his moment.
Rojas is gonna stay. He's already one of the best defense center fielders in the mlb. He effortlessly gets under balls other guys have to dive for
@@Flyingboy25 but with topper and dombrovski you never know
No way is Rojas being sent back down....not the way he plays CF.
They expand rosters in Sept.. They'll be here.
Wow. That’s great for that kid. He’s got a bright future
It took him a long time to get there but he's not too old yet. I hope he does great things.
@@djredshow Me too
That night was magic!!
Is that Bryce Harper's brother?

Yeah, that gets to you all right . All those years supporting your child and being there to help get him to this point and seeing that kind of result is just unbelievable .
Okay Uncle Wes! Even the baby approved 😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Congratulations 🎉
Congratulations! That's an awesome moment.
Great moment for the family and my one day to be a Phillies fan to celebrate for them 🎉
As Bob Becker used to say, "He hit that one right where it was pitched!"
As a parent, we can attest to the success of our children. It’s what you work so hard for over the course of many years. Then, you see something like this and you can’t help but feel such a sense of relief . It’s an emotional relief knowing your children will make it. I think teachers feel similarly when they learn of the success of one of their students.
Great moment for Wilson and his family and Philly team mates.
First thing I saw was the kids shirt...LMAO!
That was a awesome swing! Happy for the new Philly player and his family. Hope they keep him in the lineup.
This was a great game for the Phillies. Hope they can keep it up!
And called by the legendary Gary Thorne! Awesome!
Baseball is so romantic~!
Awesome
I saw that on TV. Now I watched, again, a year later. Still brings tears. I just know how his family has been following him, taking care of the business of life, as he pursues his dream. Even if, he never has a good career in the majors, this moment last a lifetime! This from a long time Pirates fan! Congrats to Wilson, and his family!!!
I celebrate these victories and only wish I could have bestowed such amazing feats upon my father when he were still alive! Bless you Wilson family, very happy for your joyous occasion! 🙌🏼
I'm sure your Father is extremely proud of you. Just because he's not here physically, doesn't mean he doesn't still watch out for you. He's proud of you. That I can almost guarantee 🫂
Google his younger brother, Spencer Wilson, and watch the "on the road" you tube clip about him....unbelievable story
Meanwhile lady DIRECTLY behind home plate is so worried about what she has to say: so important and BEST seat in the house and completely missed the smash! Good work
Wes Wilson currently has a 5.000 OPS. GOAT?
28 years old, probably been playing for 24 of those years? PRO
That’s freaking awesome!!! 😎 Love the emotion that his dad couldn’t hold in and that’s even better. Proud family seeing this monumental moment.
Parents should be proud, I'm sure they supported him thru Little League, travel ball, high school, college, minors etc
1:55 so he has to frame a jersey he hit his 1st homerun in...and his name is all wonky?! Dammit where's the quality control?! ALMOST as bad as Joe Carter wearing a TOROTNO Blue Jays jersey.
This is third player...at minimum...thats done this in the last year. First AB in ML with a HR. Amarika.🇺🇸
As an Angels fan I hate the A's...But Nick Martini's Home Run at Wrigley Field always makes me tear up
it can't get any better than ...." Oh Yes It Can ", if that little marched up and handed over the BALL ⚾️😮
Wait I thought it wasn’t ok to celebrate a home run? Watched it, Throws the Bat, Pointed at the dugout, smiled - how dare him enjoy that moment! Lol
