And only one of those perfect games was in the postseason (Don Larsen in the 1956 World Series). Fun fact: both Larsen and Yogi Berra (who caught his perfect game) were on hand for David Cone’s perfect game at the old Yankee Stadium.
I just saw someone say once every six years. The fact that he said “Once every year? Once every decade?” is hilarious, it’s literally right in the middle.
3:05 that was the first time New York cheered after 9/11 HUGE moment for NYC no matter what team you rooted for! Even if you hated the Mets or baseball in general, that home run was HUGE in helping NYC start to heal.
Yep, as a New Yorker and Mets fan, that obviously meant a lot to me. But it was big deal for NY in general and even the USA in general. It was a weird time right after 9/11 where doing anything normal felt abnormal. This was a moment where it went beyond baseball and made things feel normal again. Obviously we can never get back those that we lost and are still losing to after effects of that horrible day, but that home run was a glimmer of hope for the city in a way, that we could get back to normal. There's some Chipper Jones video (for the uninitiated, Chipper Jones was a hall of fame 3rd baseman, who was in the prime of his career at that time, for the Braves, who were the Mets bugaboo, they were just always better and the Mets rarely had success). Chipper Jones said he never wanted to lose, especially to the Mets, but he was okay losing that day, or something to that effect.
0:45 José Fernandez, marlins pitcher. He died in a boating accident, not Aaron Hernandez who you’re thinking of, who is the murderous tight end who played for the patriots.
He died in a boating accident where he was very high on cocaine and driving a boat at high speeds in the dark. And he killed other people while doing it. Sad to say, but he did it to himself and he deserves as much sympathy as a drunk driver who killed someone! If he survived, he would have belonged in prison.
@@LiveFromThePorcelainPalaceyou sound stupid… he was not driving on a road with a bunch of other cars he was literally on the ocean and hit a rock so it’s not completely the same. And you say that like the two people who were with him weren’t also doing what he was doing. You can’t pretend to care about them only so you can justify not caring about him…. He was doing something dumb and payed the price for it but weird to bash him after death
never saw this take on this incident before and i followed the news closely when it happened---- you are 100% right and it really changes the perspective on the memorial.@@LiveFromThePorcelainPalace
Yeah, in fairness Aaron Hernandez and José Fernandez were both murderers. Driving 65+ mph on a boat while high and drunk then crashing killing everyone on board is NOT an accident
And don't forget about Harvey Haddix pitching 12 perfect innings only to lose the perfect game, shutout, and game itself in the 13th. Had that game been played under today's rules, Haddix would have lost in the 10th (or 11th) and still gotten credit for a perfect game! Elias Sports Bureau, MLB's official statkeepers, has said that a pitcher who does not allow a baserunner, but loses the game due to extra innings starting with a runner on second base (2 sacrifice flies or bunts or a combination score the runner without allowing a runner to reach first base) the pitcher will still get credit for a perfect game. But if 2 or more pitchers combine on a 9 inning (or more) perfect game, they will not be credited for it!!! Only a perfect game if there is only one pitcher! Go figure!
@@LiveFromThePorcelainPalaceOther things can score that runner too like a sac bunt or sac fly. Not sure if they've announced how a fielder's choice would count...
@@psymar as long as the pitcher does not allow a batter to reach first base, it is a perfect game. A fielder's choice would take away the perfect game since the batter would reach first. Also.. I've played a simulated game in Out of the Park Baseball where Ed Kranepool made an error on a popup in foul ground.. Al Jackson (who pitched a couple of 1 hitters for the early Mets) did not allow a baserunner. It hasn't happened in the majors, but I wonder if there has ever been a perfect game in any professional league that had an error on a foul popup! As long as the pitcher doesn't allow the batter to reach first base he gets credit for perfection. An error on an easy foul pop fly just extends the at bat.
7:27 The batter that hit the walk-off home run for Atlanta was Chipper Jones. It was the 468th and final home run of his career. He played 19 years in the majors, all of them for the Braves, and was the last remaining player from their 1995 championship team.
6:36 the cardinals were a strike away from losing the world series but the hitter David Freese tied in the bottom of the 9th. 6:55 later in the game in extra innings the same guy David Freese hit a game winning home run forcing a game 7 where whoever wins wins the world series and because of David Freese the Cardinals went to game 7 and won the world series.
That last one was epic. In game 1 of the 1988 World Series, there was doubt on whether or not Kirk Gibson would he able to play, as he had two bad knees. Yet for some reason, in the bottom of the ninth, Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda opts to have him pinch hit. When he was seen coming out of the dugout to hit, announcer Vin Scully said "When you talk about a roll of the dice, this is it". Even though that home run was Gibson's only appearance in the series, it still greatly helped the Dodgers with eventually defeating the A's to win the whole thing.
The last clip. The 1988 Dodgers were extreme underdogs the entire year. Yet they made it to the World Series to face the favored Oakland A's. Kirk Gibson (#23) was unable to play due to torn ligaments in his right knee AND a pulled left hamstring. With the Dodgers trailing 4-3 in the bottom of the ninth inning of the first game of the 1988 World Series, manager Tommy Lasorda allowed Gibson to hobble up to the plate, and shocked the life out of the A's with that hit. .
There have been 24 perfect games in MLB history. One of the rarest feats a single player can accomplish in baseball. Not to be confused with a no-hitter. While a perfect game is technically a no-hitter, in a perfect game the pitcher records 27 outs without allowing a baserunner. In a no-hitter you can allow walks, and baserunners on errors. There is a loophole in the new rules where extra innings start with a baserunner that makes it possible for a pitcher to throw a perfect game and lose... but don't get me started on that!!!
My late father would say things like "That pitcher's throwing manure balls 'cuz they're knocking' the crap out of them!" His commentary made baseball even more fun....
There’s a couple of clips I would’ve added: Kirk Gibson’s HR in the 1984 World Series Albert Pujols’ HR off of Brad Lidge in the 2005 NLCS Paul Konerko’s grand slam in Game 2 of the 2005 World Series Juan Uribe diving into the stands to make a catch in Game 4 of the 2005 World Series
Baseball playoffs are INTENSE, and they are happening right now. The season is mostly a picnic atmosphere unless your team is in a tight division race.
I know everybody's got their moments that are somehow missing from this list, but for me, I need to see Edgar's double in the Kingdome in the 1995 ALDS vs the Yankees. It essentially saved baseball in Seattle.
Totally agree. Another clutch hit from Mr. Consistent himself and Jr's huge smile from the bottom of the pile at home plate, the entire stadium losing their collective minds! One of the biggest moments in Seattle sports history for sure!
There’s nothing like attending a game, so much energy and excitement from the crowd, it’s epic. And I’m no sports fan but live is way better than watching on tv. College games is even more so, college fans are true diehard fans.
There are so many other plays in baseball history that should have made this video. All of the ones that did, are very much wortthy. Just surprised that the Joe Carter 93' World Series homerun, Nolan Ryan's 5,000 strikeout or any of his 7 no-hitters or Ricky Henderson breaking the all time Stolen Base Record, Bo Jackson and his bat breaking, Ozzie Smith and his World Series Homerun, The first game in 98' for the Cubs after Harry Carrey passed away, the infamous Nolan Ryan vs Robin Ventura fight, Cal Ripken, Jr. breaking the all time consecutive games played record, Ted Williams finishing a season with a .400 batting average and just so many more amazing moments in baseball history. It makes me wish some of the great moments from the 1800's and early 1900's could have been on video tape. Just so we could relive the magic of Christy Matthewson or Mordacai "Three-Finger" Brown. Baseball has a very rich history. Some bad moments like the steroid scandal in the late 90's or the Black Sox incident or Pete Rose being banned for gambling on games and throwing games. But it has way more amazing moments where a guy makes it to the MLB level and you can see it on his face as a rookie, that his childhood dream has come true and even though he is a professional ball player, part of him wants to cry like he is 5 years old and dreaming of being like his favorite player. It really is an amazing game, with lots of amazing moments.
Explanation of clips: 1. Jose Fernandez (Not Aaron Fernandez) was a beloved clubhouse personality, and died in a boating accident. Dee Gordon was the player that hit the home run, and was a very close friend of him 2. Mike Piazza hits a go ahead home run again the Braves after 9/11 3. Jose Bautista hits a 3-run go ahead home run, which would lead to the Blue Jays moving on in the playoffs 4. The Pittsburgh Pirates faced a division rival, the Reds, in a win or go home Wild Card Game. The Pirates have been terrible for years, so this game was electric for them 5. Francisco Lindor of the Cleveland Indians (Now Guardians) hits a grand slam to cut the New York Yankees lead down to one, and they would eventually tie the game 6. Dalmon Young of the Baltimore Orioles hits a 3-run double to take the lead in the 8th inning, and they would win the series an inning later and move on in the playoffs 7. David Ortiz of the Boston Red Sox hits a game-tying grand slam in the 8th inning to save the game 8. Evan Longoria hits a walk-off home run to send the Rays to the playoffs on the final day of the regular season 9. David Freese of the St. Louis Cardinals hits a game tying triple in the bottom of the 9th (the final inning of the game, unless the game is tied afterwards) in an elimination game in the World Series, and he would hit a walk off later that same game to force a game 7 that the Cardinals would go on to win, and win the World Series 10. Atlanta Braves legend Chipper Jones hits a walk-off home run as the final home run of his career 11. Gillespie hits a 2-run double to take the lead in the 8th inning to save the San Francisco Giants season 12. Francisco Lindor (now on the New York Mets) hits three home runs in one game 13. Magglio Ordonez hits a walk off home run to complete the Detroit Tigers' sweep over the Oakland A's to send them to the World Series 14. Rajai Davis of the Cleveland Indians hits a 2-run home run in the bottom of the 8th in Game 7 of the World Series (spoiler, they lost the game anyway. Shown in clip 15) 15. The Chicago Cubs beat the Indians to win the World Series for the first time in 107 years (I might be wrong on the number of years but it was over 100 years) 16. Derek Jeter of the New York Yankees hits a walk-off in his final game of his career (hes one of the greatest players of all time) 17. Felix Hernandez of the Seattle Mariners throws a Perfect Game (27 stright outs without allowing a baserunner) 18. David Bote of the Chicago Cubs hits a walk-off grand slam to win the game after being down by 3 runs in the bottom of the 9th 19. Gonzalez of the Arozona Diamondbacks hits a walk-off single to win the World Series off of Mariano Rivera, known as the greatest closing pitcher of all time 20. Kirk Gibson hits a walk off home run in game 1 of the World Series. Twist is, he had many severe injuries in his legs when his manager put him into the game
There’s no better feeling than playing in your home stadium and making the play, whether on the field or at bat, that wins it for your team. To get a perfect game you have to get 27 outs without giving up a hit or a walk. Extremely difficult to do.
Hi Kabir! Too bad you won't be here in the US during baseball season. I think you would really enjoy not just the game, but the whole stadium experience! Among sports, watching a baseball game in the stadium is totally unique from any other sport.
The CUbs winning the World Series in 2016 was a HUGE deal because they had not won a World Series since 1908.. and had not been in the World Series since 1945.
Yeah, my dad went his entire life without the Cubs even playing in a world series, let alone winning one. And yet the Cubs were so dominant in those early years that they're still 5th for pennants won among National League teams with 17. Their World Series win in 1908 was their second in a row, and part of a streak of 4 world series appearances in 5 years.
Simply put, 10:18 is the greatest moment not only in the history of baseball, not only in the history of professional sports, but quite possibly in the history of human existance as well. Indeed, the sun could go dark, and the world could grow dim, but still the universe would be at peace, because the Chicago Cubs had won a World Series.
Some of these I remember watching on TV, most of them were playoff / championship games or bottom of the 9th/extra inningings walk off games (when a player knocks in a run to win the game in front of a home crowd). I haven't been to a play off or championship game, but I HAVE been to walk-off games and you are right the atmosphere is ELECTRIC! Even if you are in a sports bar watching on TV with people you hardly know, or sitting at home alone with your cat, if your team is the winning team, you jump up and down, yell and dance around like crazy! I remember going to games with my dad, "daddy, how come when we watch on TV at home the Giants (my team for almost 40 years now) win, but when we come to the game, they lose?" I don't remember what piece of fatherly wisdom he gave me, but the next game I went to, the Giants won 21-2! "Daddy, that was fun! I hope it's like that the next time we come!" "Katy, you're never going to see a game like that again." ~35 years later and he's so far been right.
Surprised they didn’t have the 04 come back win by the Sox in there. Also baseball comes to the UK once a year you should go next year. It’s gonna be the Mets and the Philly’s
Kabir, look into the cubs world series victory in 2016! There are so many videos about that season! A lot of people werent even fans of the cubs and were so glad they finally won! Also, check out the 1991 world series between my Minnesota Twins and the Atlanta Braves. Considered one of the greatest series played!
I will never forget Kurt Gibsons home run. He hadn't even dressed for the game or was he introduced at the start. Both legs damaged. Hamstring in one and knee on the other.
13:31 Kirk Gibson was an older player who was supposed to be on the Disabled List for this game. He had two bad knees, and said he didn't know which one to limp on. Regardless, he made a clutch play for the LA Dodgers and helped them earn a championship.
11:34 believe it or not there is actually a feat that can be considered rarer than a perfect game It’s called an immaculate inning, and that’s when a pitcher strikes out every batter in and inning with three pitches each. Technically there have been more immaculate innings than perfect games, but if you consider that and pitcher could get one any inning and yet only 114 have even been recorded should attest to its difficulty
The Bautista Hime Run is so famous that it literally has its own video on UA-cam of just that inning. It's one of the most famous bat flips of all time and quite possibly the Loudest an MLB stadium had ever been for just one inning.
0:56 Jose Fernandez tribute game 3:01 I believe this is following the attack of 9/11, the team who hit the HR are from NY 3:32 Bautista's go ahead HR in a "Do or Die" game. Arguably one of the most memorable bat flips in history 4:06 Crowd chants "Cueto", the pitcher in hopes of causing a mistake, this is the 2014 Wild Card which was a single game, winner take all to advance to the next round of the playoffs 4:43 Lindors Grad Slam in game 2 of the ALDS in either '16 or '17 I believe. 5:02 Young clears the bases and scores 3 Runs to take the lead in Game 2 of the ALDS 5:33 David Ortiz or "Big Papi" ties the game with a Grand Slam in game 2 of the 2013 ALCS At 5:57 The Rays walk off the Yankees and clinch their spot in the postseason during the final game of the regular season At 6:47 The Cardinals tie the game in the bottom of the ninth in a game they needed to win to force a winner take all Game 7 of the World Series, they would later go on to win the very next night to be crowned 2011 WS Champs At 7:29 I believe this was Chipper Jones last game of his career, he played with Atlanta for his entire Career I believe and his last HR was a game winner Not sure what the Giants/Cubs clip is, other than the Giants claiming the lead late in the game Not sure what the Lindor clip is other than it was the go ahead run against their cross town rivals I At 9:15 I believe this was a walkoff in Game 4 of either the DS or CS At 9:52 This was Rajai Davis game tying Home Run in game 7 of the 2016 World Series, this game is arguably one of the greatest in Baseball history. At 10:19 This is the final out of the 2016 WS as the Cubs not only surmounted a 3-1 series deficit, but they won their first World Series in 106 Years. At 10:47 This was the last game of Derek Jeters career, he played for the Yankees across his entire career and his final hit was a game winner At 11:09 Is Felix Hernandez's Perfect game, an incredibly rare feat, since this game in 2012 there has been one perfect game thrown which occurred in 2023. At 11:47 Walk Off Grand Slam, incredibly rare 11:42 Walk off hit in Game 7 of the 2002 World Series, against the greatest closer Mariano Rivera 11:42 Very important HR in the 1988 WS, Gibson was hurt and was only used to try and get a hit, instead he won the game.
All of these moments, most, are from playoff games!!! High tension, wild fans!! Its a blast!!!⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️ Perfect games are very rare!!! That's why all the fuss when it happens!!😉😉
There are fans that listen to the game on their phone while they are actually there because of the announcers!!!! Listen to the excitement in their voices!
12:05 That base hit won the 2001 World Series for the Arizona Diamondbacks. Significant for a few reasons. First, the Yankees were heavily favored, having won the previous three World Series. Second, it was only the Diamondbacks fourth season in existence (they and Tampa Bay first season in MLB was in 1998). Third, it was Game 7, so it was winner-take-all. Fourth, the D-backs had gone into the top of the ninth trailing 2-1 and had to come back to win 3-2. Fifth, they did that facing Yankees closer Mariano Rivera, who was considered one of the most dominant pitchers in baseball history and retired the all-time leader in saves. Mo was also even more dominant than usual when he pitched in the World Series. His career ERA in World Series games was 0.99 and he had 11 World Series saves (also the all-time record). This was the only time he ever blew a save in the World Series.
I was at the Cueto game. I was laughing so hard I didn't see the home run. Pirates fans hate The Reds. Cueto was (once again) pitching well. But some close pitches didn't go his way and the crowd started to tease him by chanting his name. He came completely apart and was taken out.
I know that the second one where Piazza hit a home run was in the first major league game in New York City after 9/11 so that's why that was such a big deal especially because Piazza was beloved. Most of the rest are simply game winners or more specifically a lot of them are during championship games that help them advance.
Just watch a couple postseason games in the next week or so. The atmosphere is unmatched in American sports. Not even college sports can compare to the electricity at a postseason baseball game. Its literally NUTS. Every single pitch fans are on pins and needles.
Video 1)....Jose Fernandez had died in a boating accident....He was a star pitcher, young, and it's sad, but he was driving the boat recklessly and under the influence and others died. That wasn't known at the time and in the first at bat for his team after his death Dee Gordon, who doesn't hit many homers, homered. Video 2) 2:55. This was the first game back in New York after 9-11, in a stadium used during rescue and relief efforts, and Piazza hit the big homerun in the 8th to take the lead and the city rejoiced for the first time since.... Video 3) 3:28--Jose Bautista back when those type of celebrations after a homer were a big no no in an inning that was insane for the type of mistakes and crazy plays that had happened in the top half of the inning in this playoff game.... Video 4) --3:57---- Pirates had finally made it back to the playoffs after having 20 consecutive losing seasons and well they were happy.... Video 5) 4:32 Lindor hit a Grand Slam to bring the Indians back in the game against the Yankees....big playoff moment, on here because of the crowd noise....Video 6) 4:58--Again a crowd noise situation on a big hit late in a playoff game. Orioles hadn't done much in recent years so it was a big moment.....Video 7) 5:27--Big Papi hit a game tying Grand Slam in the 8th of a playoff game and spurred the Red Sox on their way to another World Series title...he had become a very clutch playoff hitter....Video 8) 5:52 Evan Longoria hit that homer in the 12th to win the game and get Tampa into the playoffs. That whole day, Day 162, of that season had all sorts of drama and insanity. For this Tampa needed to win and Boston need to lose. Boston was playing a very very bad Baltimore team and were winning in the 9th inning. Tampa was at home but fell behind 7-0 to the Yankees. With 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th about to have their season finished a pinch hitter came up and got his only hit of the entire season, a homer down the line to send it to extra innings. After rain delays in Baltimore the Orioles came back out and scored 2 in the 9th after 2 were out and stunned Boston...just a minute later Longoria hits this homer to send Tampa to the playoffs..... Video 9) 6:36...Rangers led the World Series 3 games to 2. The Cardinals were down to their final strike. Freese, who grew up near there, came up and hit this 2 out 2 strike triple that send the came into extra innings. In the 10th the Rangers went back ahead on a Josh Hamilton homer but again down to their final strike in the bottom of the 10th Lance Berkman singled to center and the Cardinals tied it again. Freese came up in the 11th and hit the walk off homer. Joe Buck said "We'll see you tomorrow night," to honor his legendary father Jack Buck, who ended game 6 of the 1991 World Series with that same call when Kirby Puckett homered to send that series to Game 7. It wasn't the first time Joe said. He said it in Game 6 of 2002 World Series after the Angels dramatic late inning comeback to force game 7 against Bonds and the Giants. In 1991 the Twins won Game 7, in 2002 the Angels won Game 7, and here in 2011 the Cardinals would go on to win Game 7...Video 10)...7:26....Chipper Jones hits the walk-off homer...couldn't tell you the significance of that one other than being a game winner.... Video 11) 8:12....Conor Gillaspie turned around a high pitch from flame thrower Aroldis Chapman to put the Giants up in an elimination game for them in the playoffs. Cubs did go on to win however....Video 12) 8:31....Subway Series, regular season game, between New York Yankees and New York Mets...it was Lindor's 3rd HOMER of the game...Video 13) 9:01 Magglio Ordonez hits a game winning 3 run homer to complete a 4 game sweep of Oakland and send the Detroit Tigers to their first World Series (I think) since 1984 Video 14) 9:47--Rajai Davis, not know for homers, hits a 2 run homer off again flame thrower Aroldis Chapman with the Cubs leading and 4 outs away from their first World Series since 1908 (108 years). Cleveland has not won one since either '48 or '45 so it was huge for both. This game went extra-innings before the Cubs scored 2 and held on to win it all Video 15) 10:43...Derek Jeter was retiring and this was his last at bat at Yankee Stadium. Yankees finished the season in Boston where he did bat again, but this was his final at bat at Yankee Stadium and he hit a walk off single Video 16) 11:06...Felix Hernandez completes his perfect game....as other have stated those are extremely rare Video 17) 11:37--David Bote fulfills the dream of any kid who has played baseball in the backyard, on a computer, or anywhere, hitting that game winning grand slam when down 3 with 2 outs. Not a playoff game, which would have made it beyond crazy, but the moment all ballplayers dream about...Video 18) 12:05...in the 2001 World Series the D'backs won the 1st two at home, choked the middle 3 in New York giving up dramatic late inning homers, blew out the Yankees in Game 6, and then did the impossible which was rally for a couple of runs off the future unanimous Hall of Famer Mariano Rivera. This was Luis Gonzalez getting the dink hit over the drawn in infield to win Game 7 Video 19) 12:25....Game 1 of the 1988 World Series....Dodgers were the underdogs to a loaded A's team. The batter was not expected to play because he was injured. He said he could go up and swing it, but he wouldn't be able to run. He fouled off some pitches and had received advice on what Hall of Famer Eckersley liked to throw in that situation so he sort of guessed what was coming. He one legged it over the wall to walk off with the Game 1 win and the Dodgers went on to win that World Series. The broadcaster calling is the legendary Vin Scully who was also the Dodgers normal play by play guy and probably the greatest to ever do it. Gibson's limp/run around the bases is one of the most iconic images in Major League Baseball history... Playoff baseball is magical.....magical time of year, Autumn, and so much suspense. For you Kabir it would be like taking the drama of some of the last days of the Premier League, think Aguero, think of Ilkay Guendogan, final day drama to snap titles at the death but it goes on nightly for a month!
Ozzie Smith's walkoff homerun to win Game 5 of the National League Championship Series in 1985 was incredible. Especially since Ozzie Smith hardly ever hit homeruns.
That game with Chicago was a curse breaking World Series win. Would love to see your reaction to the hype around that game. I think it had been since 1945. It was called the Billy Goat Curse
Perfect games are rare when you consider the number of games played every year recently. Another stat worth mentioning for pitchers specifically are no-hitters. In over 140 years of MLB there have been 325 no-hitters. That’s an average of around 2.3 per year.
6:04 I’m not sure about that specific game other than the fact the it was in extra innings and way ended with a walk off home-run. But for there games if you see things like wild card, NLDS, ALDS, NLCS, ALCS, or World Series, those are all playoff games and very important. Other than that they are very athletic or rare events like the grand slam: hitting a home-run with runner on every base Perfect game: pitching an entire game no batter on the other team ever gets on base Or just dramatic turn around that put one team in the lead or get them back in the game.
6:39 Honestly IMHO, that right fielder blew a world series for himself and his team by hesitating because of the wall because if he ran outright, it was very a catchable ball. He may have hit the wall a bit hard but who care, I'd even go through that wall to get that ring for my team mates. That would have the been the 3rd and final out and Texas would have won the World Series. Instead they lost this game which was game 6, then they lost game 7.
Yeah, they really should give more context in videos like this. I've been watching baseball all my life, and even pausing and squinting in at the game info I still can't remember what the significance of a lot of these moments are.
If you look by the fox logo it says if it is an important game. ALDS or ALCS / NLDS or NLCS Divisional Series or League Championship Series or World Series.
They are called "runs" in baseball, not "points". And like the other person said, there is nothing called a clean sweep in baseball, that's a grand slam you described.
Jose Fernandez crashed his boat at 65 MPH into a stone jetty at 3 AM while drunk and high on cocaine. The crash also killed two friends who were with him.
@@LiveFromThePorcelainPalaceit's one of those situations where for the fans it's probably better he ended up immortalized with his death. Sounds fucked up to say .. but you're not wrong. If he hypothetically survived but was at "fault" for the death of his two friends, plus the coke charges that would've come out from it. As beloved as he was, I doubt you could talk your way out of it when you're aboard a wrecked boat full of empties and a nice amount of cocaine surrounded by Coast Card boats
It's a pity your upcoming trip is too late to go to a game in person. I think you said you're arriving on Nov 3rd, so you might be able to catch the end of the World Series on TV if it goes to a game 6 or 7.
Not coming in to hate by any means just wanted to correct you so you know but that forts clip is Jose Fernandez I this you were thinking of Aaron Hernandez the football player love the videos brotha keep it up
I know you don't read comments from non-paying subscribers but I begged you for a couple of years to react to Little League World Series highlights. This would be a good year to do it. A kid from California walked it off with a grand slam in the bottom of the last inning.
@@TheRandomRedSoxGuyWhen he first started he would actually respond to my comments and suggestions. Once he started getting paid he left the non-paying subscribers behind.
Baseball is about 170 games in a season. There are 30 teams in MLB. There are two leauges(American and National) and there are 3 divisions in each league. FIRST of all during the season you woul normally get electrifed as much as the complication because 170 games are like a marathon but there are STILL dramas and stories along the journey of this marathons. in a season less than say 10 times in 170 games in average meaning that baseball in general is boring as hell and even hurting if your team do not make the post season. Therefore. If your team played well and advance to post season. The vibe is a lot different around you. Your tean goes to division play off and if your team wins the division play offs and even win the league Championship - believe me vibe is hyped up like crazy people on the streets are talking about baseball all the them and if your team played soooo well that they even win the World Series Championship. In that particular year I can say you would get electrified more than 50 times guaranteed from wining the post season ticket to WSF every play become sooo meaningful. There is saying "How can you not be romantic about baseball".
In the 80s and 90s they had steroids. I hate saying that because I love baseball, but it's the truth. Edit: very keen on including the Gibson home run winner. I saw that live as a little kid.
Fernandez was young and grew up poor. He just took the rich life by both hands and ended in disaster. He was acting like a mad man late at night on his boat on a bunch of alcohol and cocaine and ran his boat full speed into a rock outcrop and killed everyone on board. Theres text and things backing up that he had been acting wild all night. Probably the best pitcher in baseball when this happened. Its a travesty
I don't like the Yankees or Jeter, in fact, i dislike them both lol. But even I have to admit Jeter had a magical career. 5 World Series including one in his rookie season, great postseason numbers, his 3000th hit was a home run, for a guy not known as a power hitter, and in his last game in his home stadium, he had a walk off base hit. I think he was overrated, you can disagree, i really don't care, but the man had flair for the dramatic.
Baseball game, carnival atmosphere? What does that even mean. With each MLB team playing 162 games not every game will be a thrill a minute. But MLB paid attendance rebounded in 2023 with 70 million people attending games. People won't spend their hard earned money if it's not exciting and entertaining. BTW, MLB is a regional sport meaning a team like the LA Dodgers or NY Yankees can average 47,000 people per 81 home games but the entire country may not be interested in them, unlike NFL or even NBA teams
I remember David Freese hitting that home run. Joe Buck repeated his Dad jack Bucks line. See you tomorrow night the Cards won the World Series Series the next night

There have been just 24 perfect games in over 140 years of MLB history. 2012 was an incredible year with three.
And Harvey Haddix going 12 perfect innings before losing the game in the 13th!
And only one of those perfect games was in the postseason (Don Larsen in the 1956 World Series). Fun fact: both Larsen and Yogi Berra (who caught his perfect game) were on hand for David Cone’s perfect game at the old Yankee Stadium.
I just saw someone say once every six years. The fact that he said “Once every year? Once every decade?” is hilarious, it’s literally right in the middle.
3:05 that was the first time New York cheered after 9/11
HUGE moment for NYC no matter what team you rooted for! Even if you hated the Mets or baseball in general, that home run was HUGE in helping NYC start to heal.
Yep, as a New Yorker and Mets fan, that obviously meant a lot to me. But it was big deal for NY in general and even the USA in general. It was a weird time right after 9/11 where doing anything normal felt abnormal. This was a moment where it went beyond baseball and made things feel normal again. Obviously we can never get back those that we lost and are still losing to after effects of that horrible day, but that home run was a glimmer of hope for the city in a way, that we could get back to normal.
There's some Chipper Jones video (for the uninitiated, Chipper Jones was a hall of fame 3rd baseman, who was in the prime of his career at that time, for the Braves, who were the Mets bugaboo, they were just always better and the Mets rarely had success). Chipper Jones said he never wanted to lose, especially to the Mets, but he was okay losing that day, or something to that effect.
0:45 José Fernandez, marlins pitcher. He died in a boating accident, not Aaron Hernandez who you’re thinking of, who is the murderous tight end who played for the patriots.
He died in a boating accident where he was very high on cocaine and driving a boat at high speeds in the dark. And he killed other people while doing it.
Sad to say, but he did it to himself and he deserves as much sympathy as a drunk driver who killed someone! If he survived, he would have belonged in prison.
@@LiveFromThePorcelainPalaceyou sound stupid… he was not driving on a road with a bunch of other cars he was literally on the ocean and hit a rock so it’s not completely the same. And you say that like the two people who were with him weren’t also doing what he was doing. You can’t pretend to care about them only so you can justify not caring about him…. He was doing something dumb and payed the price for it but weird to bash him after death
never saw this take on this incident before and i followed the news closely when it happened---- you are 100% right and it really changes the perspective on the memorial.@@LiveFromThePorcelainPalace
Yeah, in fairness Aaron Hernandez and José Fernandez were both murderers. Driving 65+ mph on a boat while high and drunk then crashing killing everyone on board is NOT an accident
Dee Gordon was his best friend.
11:31 in 154 years of Major League Baseball and over 238,500 games played, a perfect game has only been thrown 24 times. That’s how rare it is.
And don't forget about Harvey Haddix pitching 12 perfect innings only to lose the perfect game, shutout, and game itself in the 13th. Had that game been played under today's rules, Haddix would have lost in the 10th (or 11th) and still gotten credit for a perfect game!
Elias Sports Bureau, MLB's official statkeepers, has said that a pitcher who does not allow a baserunner, but loses the game due to extra innings starting with a runner on second base (2 sacrifice flies or bunts or a combination score the runner without allowing a runner to reach first base) the pitcher will still get credit for a perfect game.
But if 2 or more pitchers combine on a 9 inning (or more) perfect game, they will not be credited for it!!! Only a perfect game if there is only one pitcher! Go figure!
@@LiveFromThePorcelainPalaceOther things can score that runner too like a sac bunt or sac fly. Not sure if they've announced how a fielder's choice would count...
@@psymar as long as the pitcher does not allow a batter to reach first base, it is a perfect game. A fielder's choice would take away the perfect game since the batter would reach first.
Also.. I've played a simulated game in Out of the Park Baseball where Ed Kranepool made an error on a popup in foul ground.. Al Jackson (who pitched a couple of 1 hitters for the early Mets) did not allow a baserunner. It hasn't happened in the majors, but I wonder if there has ever been a perfect game in any professional league that had an error on a foul popup! As long as the pitcher doesn't allow the batter to reach first base he gets credit for perfection. An error on an easy foul pop fly just extends the at bat.
Although "outdated" now, Jim(?) Buckley Jr authored Perfect: The Inside Story of Baseball's Sixteen Perfect Games :)
7:27 The batter that hit the walk-off home run for Atlanta was Chipper Jones. It was the 468th and final home run of his career. He played 19 years in the majors, all of them for the Braves, and was the last remaining player from their 1995 championship team.
6:36 the cardinals were a strike away from losing the world series but the hitter David Freese tied in the bottom of the 9th. 6:55 later in the game in extra innings the same guy David Freese hit a game winning home run forcing a game 7 where whoever wins wins the world series and because of David Freese the Cardinals went to game 7 and won the world series.
That last one was epic. In game 1 of the 1988 World Series, there was doubt on whether or not Kirk Gibson would he able to play, as he had two bad knees. Yet for some reason, in the bottom of the ninth, Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda opts to have him pinch hit. When he was seen coming out of the dugout to hit, announcer Vin Scully said "When you talk about a roll of the dice, this is it". Even though that home run was Gibson's only appearance in the series, it still greatly helped the Dodgers with eventually defeating the A's to win the whole thing.
If you like the Postseason atmosphere, check out some of the highlights from the Phillies series vs the Braves.
The last clip.
The 1988 Dodgers were extreme underdogs the entire year.
Yet they made it to the World Series to face the favored Oakland A's.
Kirk Gibson (#23) was unable to play due to torn ligaments in his right knee AND a pulled left hamstring.
With the Dodgers trailing 4-3 in the bottom of the ninth inning of the first game of the 1988 World Series, manager Tommy Lasorda allowed Gibson to hobble up to the plate, and shocked the life out of the A's with that hit. .
And they’re still looking for a non-COVID-bubble championship 35 years later! 😉
I am almost 78 years-old, and a lifelong Dodgers fan!! ❤️⚾️
There have been 24 perfect games in MLB history. One of the rarest feats a single player can accomplish in baseball.
Not to be confused with a no-hitter. While a perfect game is technically a no-hitter, in a perfect game the pitcher records 27 outs without allowing a baserunner. In a no-hitter you can allow walks, and baserunners on errors.
There is a loophole in the new rules where extra innings start with a baserunner that makes it possible for a pitcher to throw a perfect game and lose... but don't get me started on that!!!
My late father would say things like "That pitcher's throwing manure balls 'cuz they're knocking' the crap out of them!"
His commentary made baseball even more fun....
There’s a couple of clips I would’ve added:
Kirk Gibson’s HR in the 1984 World Series
Albert Pujols’ HR off of Brad Lidge in the 2005 NLCS
Paul Konerko’s grand slam in Game 2 of the 2005 World Series
Juan Uribe diving into the stands to make a catch in Game 4 of the 2005 World Series
If I remember, that Dee Gordon homerun from the first clip was during the first at-bat of the game for Miami!
Baseball playoffs are INTENSE, and they are happening right now. The season is mostly a picnic atmosphere unless your team is in a tight division race.
I know everybody's got their moments that are somehow missing from this list, but for me, I need to see Edgar's double in the Kingdome in the 1995 ALDS vs the Yankees. It essentially saved baseball in Seattle.
Totally agree. Another clutch hit from Mr. Consistent himself and Jr's huge smile from the bottom of the pile at home plate, the entire stadium losing their collective minds! One of the biggest moments in Seattle sports history for sure!
Agreed.
Your next visit to America, you have to attend a baseball game in person! There’s nothing like it!!!
Baseball - the game that turns grown men into little boys again.
Hope you can find more of these and react.
There’s nothing like attending a game, so much energy and excitement from the crowd, it’s epic. And I’m no sports fan but live is way better than watching on tv. College games is even more so, college fans are true diehard fans.
There are so many other plays in baseball history that should have made this video. All of the ones that did, are very much wortthy.
Just surprised that the Joe Carter 93' World Series homerun, Nolan Ryan's 5,000 strikeout or any of his 7 no-hitters or Ricky Henderson breaking the all time Stolen Base Record, Bo Jackson and his bat breaking, Ozzie Smith and his World Series Homerun, The first game in 98' for the Cubs after Harry Carrey passed away, the infamous Nolan Ryan vs Robin Ventura fight, Cal Ripken, Jr. breaking the all time consecutive games played record, Ted Williams finishing a season with a .400 batting average and just so many more amazing moments in baseball history.
It makes me wish some of the great moments from the 1800's and early 1900's could have been on video tape. Just so we could relive the magic of Christy Matthewson or Mordacai "Three-Finger" Brown.
Baseball has a very rich history. Some bad moments like the steroid scandal in the late 90's or the Black Sox incident or Pete Rose being banned for gambling on games and throwing games.
But it has way more amazing moments where a guy makes it to the MLB level and you can see it on his face as a rookie, that his childhood dream has come true and even though he is a professional ball player, part of him wants to cry like he is 5 years old and dreaming of being like his favorite player.
It really is an amazing game, with lots of amazing moments.
That 2nd clip was the first MLB game the NY Mets played after 9/11
Explanation of clips:
1. Jose Fernandez (Not Aaron Fernandez) was a beloved clubhouse personality, and died in a boating accident. Dee Gordon was the player that hit the home run, and was a very close friend of him
2. Mike Piazza hits a go ahead home run again the Braves after 9/11
3. Jose Bautista hits a 3-run go ahead home run, which would lead to the Blue Jays moving on in the playoffs
4. The Pittsburgh Pirates faced a division rival, the Reds, in a win or go home Wild Card Game. The Pirates have been terrible for years, so this game was electric for them
5. Francisco Lindor of the Cleveland Indians (Now Guardians) hits a grand slam to cut the New York Yankees lead down to one, and they would eventually tie the game
6. Dalmon Young of the Baltimore Orioles hits a 3-run double to take the lead in the 8th inning, and they would win the series an inning later and move on in the playoffs
7. David Ortiz of the Boston Red Sox hits a game-tying grand slam in the 8th inning to save the game
8. Evan Longoria hits a walk-off home run to send the Rays to the playoffs on the final day of the regular season
9. David Freese of the St. Louis Cardinals hits a game tying triple in the bottom of the 9th (the final inning of the game, unless the game is tied afterwards) in an elimination game in the World Series, and he would hit a walk off later that same game to force a game 7 that the Cardinals would go on to win, and win the World Series
10. Atlanta Braves legend Chipper Jones hits a walk-off home run as the final home run of his career
11. Gillespie hits a 2-run double to take the lead in the 8th inning to save the San Francisco Giants season
12. Francisco Lindor (now on the New York Mets) hits three home runs in one game
13. Magglio Ordonez hits a walk off home run to complete the Detroit Tigers' sweep over the Oakland A's to send them to the World Series
14. Rajai Davis of the Cleveland Indians hits a 2-run home run in the bottom of the 8th in Game 7 of the World Series (spoiler, they lost the game anyway. Shown in clip 15)
15. The Chicago Cubs beat the Indians to win the World Series for the first time in 107 years (I might be wrong on the number of years but it was over 100 years)
16. Derek Jeter of the New York Yankees hits a walk-off in his final game of his career (hes one of the greatest players of all time)
17. Felix Hernandez of the Seattle Mariners throws a Perfect Game (27 stright outs without allowing a baserunner)
18. David Bote of the Chicago Cubs hits a walk-off grand slam to win the game after being down by 3 runs in the bottom of the 9th
19. Gonzalez of the Arozona Diamondbacks hits a walk-off single to win the World Series off of Mariano Rivera, known as the greatest closing pitcher of all time
20. Kirk Gibson hits a walk off home run in game 1 of the World Series. Twist is, he had many severe injuries in his legs when his manager put him into the game
There’s no better feeling than playing in your home stadium and making the play, whether on the field or at bat, that wins it for your team. To get a perfect game you have to get 27 outs without giving up a hit or a walk. Extremely difficult to do.
Hi Kabir!
Too bad you won't be here in the US during baseball season. I think you would really enjoy not just the game, but the whole stadium experience! Among sports, watching a baseball game in the stadium is totally unique from any other sport.
Pretty sure you never have to worry about someone hitting a 500 yard home-run, but a 500 foot home-run is also pretty rare.
If they couldn’t hit 500 yards in the golden age of steroids they won’t be hitting them anytime soon 😂
Great reaction vid Kabir. Cheers from Alberta, CAN
The CUbs winning the World Series in 2016 was a HUGE deal because they had not won a World Series since 1908.. and had not been in the World Series since 1945.
Yeah, my dad went his entire life without the Cubs even playing in a world series, let alone winning one.
And yet the Cubs were so dominant in those early years that they're still 5th for pennants won among National League teams with 17. Their World Series win in 1908 was their second in a row, and part of a streak of 4 world series appearances in 5 years.
Simply put, 10:18 is the greatest moment not only in the history of baseball, not only in the history of professional sports, but quite possibly in the history of human existance as well. Indeed, the sun could go dark, and the world could grow dim, but still the universe would be at peace, because the Chicago Cubs had won a World Series.
Yup yup! 108 years and no goats in sight!
Some of these I remember watching on TV, most of them were playoff / championship games or bottom of the 9th/extra inningings walk off games (when a player knocks in a run to win the game in front of a home crowd). I haven't been to a play off or championship game, but I HAVE been to walk-off games and you are right the atmosphere is ELECTRIC! Even if you are in a sports bar watching on TV with people you hardly know, or sitting at home alone with your cat, if your team is the winning team, you jump up and down, yell and dance around like crazy!
I remember going to games with my dad, "daddy, how come when we watch on TV at home the Giants (my team for almost 40 years now) win, but when we come to the game, they lose?" I don't remember what piece of fatherly wisdom he gave me, but the next game I went to, the Giants won 21-2! "Daddy, that was fun! I hope it's like that the next time we come!" "Katy, you're never going to see a game like that again." ~35 years later and he's so far been right.
Batista caught a lot of flak for that bat toss.
I remember Mariner, Felix Hernandez's perfect game. That was so exciting.⚡
Surprised they didn’t have the 04 come back win by the Sox in there. Also baseball comes to the UK once a year you should go next year. It’s gonna be the Mets and the Philly’s
Football is great. Baseball is the heart and soul of this country. These highlights are from playoffs, the most meaningful moments of baseball.
Kabir, look into the cubs world series victory in 2016! There are so many videos about that season! A lot of people werent even fans of the cubs and were so glad they finally won!
Also, check out the 1991 world series between my Minnesota Twins and the Atlanta Braves. Considered one of the greatest series played!
The Mike Piazza HR was the first game played in NYC after 9-11
I will never forget Kurt Gibsons home run. He hadn't even dressed for the game or was he introduced at the start. Both legs damaged. Hamstring in one and knee on the other.
13:31 Kirk Gibson was an older player who was supposed to be on the Disabled List for this game. He had two bad knees, and said he didn't know which one to limp on. Regardless, he made a clutch play for the LA Dodgers and helped them earn a championship.
The similarity between his and freeman’s home runs is crazy from the injury, to the time, to where it was hit and even the way the announcer spoke
11:34 believe it or not there is actually a feat that can be considered rarer than a perfect game
It’s called an immaculate inning, and that’s when a pitcher strikes out every batter in and inning with three pitches each.
Technically there have been more immaculate innings than perfect games, but if you consider that and pitcher could get one any inning and yet only 114 have even been recorded should attest to its difficulty
The Bautista Hime Run is so famous that it literally has its own video on UA-cam of just that inning. It's one of the most famous bat flips of all time and quite possibly the Loudest an MLB stadium had ever been for just one inning.
0:56 Jose Fernandez tribute game
3:01 I believe this is following the attack of 9/11, the team who hit the HR are from NY
3:32 Bautista's go ahead HR in a "Do or Die" game. Arguably one of the most memorable bat flips in history
4:06 Crowd chants "Cueto", the pitcher in hopes of causing a mistake, this is the 2014 Wild Card which was a single game, winner take all to advance to the next round of the playoffs
4:43 Lindors Grad Slam in game 2 of the ALDS in either '16 or '17 I believe.
5:02 Young clears the bases and scores 3 Runs to take the lead in Game 2 of the ALDS
5:33 David Ortiz or "Big Papi" ties the game with a Grand Slam in game 2 of the 2013 ALCS
At 5:57 The Rays walk off the Yankees and clinch their spot in the postseason during the final game of the regular season
At 6:47 The Cardinals tie the game in the bottom of the ninth in a game they needed to win to force a winner take all Game 7 of the World Series, they would later go on to win the very next night to be crowned 2011 WS Champs
At 7:29 I believe this was Chipper Jones last game of his career, he played with Atlanta for his entire Career I believe and his last HR was a game winner
Not sure what the Giants/Cubs clip is, other than the Giants claiming the lead late in the game
Not sure what the Lindor clip is other than it was the go ahead run against their cross town rivals
I At 9:15 I believe this was a walkoff in Game 4 of either the DS or CS
At 9:52 This was Rajai Davis game tying Home Run in game 7 of the 2016 World Series, this game is arguably one of the greatest in Baseball history.
At 10:19 This is the final out of the 2016 WS as the Cubs not only surmounted a 3-1 series deficit, but they won their first World Series in 106 Years.
At 10:47 This was the last game of Derek Jeters career, he played for the Yankees across his entire career and his final hit was a game winner
At 11:09 Is Felix Hernandez's Perfect game, an incredibly rare feat, since this game in 2012 there has been one perfect game thrown which occurred in 2023.
At 11:47 Walk Off Grand Slam, incredibly rare
11:42 Walk off hit in Game 7 of the 2002 World Series, against the greatest closer Mariano Rivera
11:42 Very important HR in the 1988 WS, Gibson was hurt and was only used to try and get a hit, instead he won the game.
All of these moments, most, are from playoff games!!! High tension, wild fans!! Its a blast!!!⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️ Perfect games are very rare!!! That's why all the fuss when it happens!!😉😉
There are fans that listen to the game on their phone while they are actually there because of the announcers!!!! Listen to the excitement in their voices!
O's had a great season this year, here's hoping they make it to the playoffs (and win) next year!
12:05 That base hit won the 2001 World Series for the Arizona Diamondbacks. Significant for a few reasons. First, the Yankees were heavily favored, having won the previous three World Series. Second, it was only the Diamondbacks fourth season in existence (they and Tampa Bay first season in MLB was in 1998). Third, it was Game 7, so it was winner-take-all. Fourth, the D-backs had gone into the top of the ninth trailing 2-1 and had to come back to win 3-2. Fifth, they did that facing Yankees closer Mariano Rivera, who was considered one of the most dominant pitchers in baseball history and retired the all-time leader in saves. Mo was also even more dominant than usual when he pitched in the World Series. His career ERA in World Series games was 0.99 and he had 11 World Series saves (also the all-time record). This was the only time he ever blew a save in the World Series.
There was a HUGE moment missing fro this compilation: Ted Williams' HR in his last career at-bat in 1960. Find that clip.
Is there footage?
I was at the Cueto game. I was laughing so hard I didn't see the home run. Pirates fans hate The Reds. Cueto was (once again) pitching well. But some close pitches didn't go his way and the crowd started to tease him by chanting his name. He came completely apart and was taken out.
I know that the second one where Piazza hit a home run was in the first major league game in New York City after 9/11 so that's why that was such a big deal especially because Piazza was beloved. Most of the rest are simply game winners or more specifically a lot of them are during championship games that help them advance.
Just watch a couple postseason games in the next week or so. The atmosphere is unmatched in American sports. Not even college sports can compare to the electricity at a postseason baseball game. Its literally NUTS. Every single pitch fans are on pins and needles.
Video 1)....Jose Fernandez had died in a boating accident....He was a star pitcher, young, and it's sad, but he was driving the boat recklessly and under the influence and others died. That wasn't known at the time and in the first at bat for his team after his death Dee Gordon, who doesn't hit many homers, homered. Video 2) 2:55. This was the first game back in New York after 9-11, in a stadium used during rescue and relief efforts, and Piazza hit the big homerun in the 8th to take the lead and the city rejoiced for the first time since.... Video 3) 3:28--Jose Bautista back when those type of celebrations after a homer were a big no no in an inning that was insane for the type of mistakes and crazy plays that had happened in the top half of the inning in this playoff game.... Video 4) --3:57---- Pirates had finally made it back to the playoffs after having 20 consecutive losing seasons and well they were happy.... Video 5) 4:32 Lindor hit a Grand Slam to bring the Indians back in the game against the Yankees....big playoff moment, on here because of the crowd noise....Video 6) 4:58--Again a crowd noise situation on a big hit late in a playoff game. Orioles hadn't done much in recent years so it was a big moment.....Video 7) 5:27--Big Papi hit a game tying Grand Slam in the 8th of a playoff game and spurred the Red Sox on their way to another World Series title...he had become a very clutch playoff hitter....Video 8) 5:52 Evan Longoria hit that homer in the 12th to win the game and get Tampa into the playoffs. That whole day, Day 162, of that season had all sorts of drama and insanity. For this Tampa needed to win and Boston need to lose. Boston was playing a very very bad Baltimore team and were winning in the 9th inning. Tampa was at home but fell behind 7-0 to the Yankees. With 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th about to have their season finished a pinch hitter came up and got his only hit of the entire season, a homer down the line to send it to extra innings. After rain delays in Baltimore the Orioles came back out and scored 2 in the 9th after 2 were out and stunned Boston...just a minute later Longoria hits this homer to send Tampa to the playoffs..... Video 9) 6:36...Rangers led the World Series 3 games to 2. The Cardinals were down to their final strike. Freese, who grew up near there, came up and hit this 2 out 2 strike triple that send the came into extra innings. In the 10th the Rangers went back ahead on a Josh Hamilton homer but again down to their final strike in the bottom of the 10th Lance Berkman singled to center and the Cardinals tied it again. Freese came up in the 11th and hit the walk off homer. Joe Buck said "We'll see you tomorrow night," to honor his legendary father Jack Buck, who ended game 6 of the 1991 World Series with that same call when Kirby Puckett homered to send that series to Game 7. It wasn't the first time Joe said. He said it in Game 6 of 2002 World Series after the Angels dramatic late inning comeback to force game 7 against Bonds and the Giants. In 1991 the Twins won Game 7, in 2002 the Angels won Game 7, and here in 2011 the Cardinals would go on to win Game 7...Video 10)...7:26....Chipper Jones hits the walk-off homer...couldn't tell you the significance of that one other than being a game winner.... Video 11) 8:12....Conor Gillaspie turned around a high pitch from flame thrower Aroldis Chapman to put the Giants up in an elimination game for them in the playoffs. Cubs did go on to win however....Video 12) 8:31....Subway Series, regular season game, between New York Yankees and New York Mets...it was Lindor's 3rd HOMER of the game...Video 13) 9:01 Magglio Ordonez hits a game winning 3 run homer to complete a 4 game sweep of Oakland and send the Detroit Tigers to their first World Series (I think) since 1984 Video 14) 9:47--Rajai Davis, not know for homers, hits a 2 run homer off again flame thrower Aroldis Chapman with the Cubs leading and 4 outs away from their first World Series since 1908 (108 years). Cleveland has not won one since either '48 or '45 so it was huge for both. This game went extra-innings before the Cubs scored 2 and held on to win it all Video 15) 10:43...Derek Jeter was retiring and this was his last at bat at Yankee Stadium. Yankees finished the season in Boston where he did bat again, but this was his final at bat at Yankee Stadium and he hit a walk off single Video 16) 11:06...Felix Hernandez completes his perfect game....as other have stated those are extremely rare Video 17) 11:37--David Bote fulfills the dream of any kid who has played baseball in the backyard, on a computer, or anywhere, hitting that game winning grand slam when down 3 with 2 outs. Not a playoff game, which would have made it beyond crazy, but the moment all ballplayers dream about...Video 18) 12:05...in the 2001 World Series the D'backs won the 1st two at home, choked the middle 3 in New York giving up dramatic late inning homers, blew out the Yankees in Game 6, and then did the impossible which was rally for a couple of runs off the future unanimous Hall of Famer Mariano Rivera. This was Luis Gonzalez getting the dink hit over the drawn in infield to win Game 7 Video 19) 12:25....Game 1 of the 1988 World Series....Dodgers were the underdogs to a loaded A's team. The batter was not expected to play because he was injured. He said he could go up and swing it, but he wouldn't be able to run. He fouled off some pitches and had received advice on what Hall of Famer Eckersley liked to throw in that situation so he sort of guessed what was coming. He one legged it over the wall to walk off with the Game 1 win and the Dodgers went on to win that World Series. The broadcaster calling is the legendary Vin Scully who was also the Dodgers normal play by play guy and probably the greatest to ever do it. Gibson's limp/run around the bases is one of the most iconic images in Major League Baseball history... Playoff baseball is magical.....magical time of year, Autumn, and so much suspense. For you Kabir it would be like taking the drama of some of the last days of the Premier League, think Aguero, think of Ilkay Guendogan, final day drama to snap titles at the death but it goes on nightly for a month!
Ozzie Smith's walkoff homerun to win Game 5 of the National League Championship Series in 1985 was incredible. Especially since Ozzie Smith hardly ever hit homeruns.
That game with Chicago was a curse breaking World Series win. Would love to see your reaction to the hype around that game. I think it had been since 1945. It was called the Billy Goat Curse
1945 was their last time even making it TO the world series. They hadn't WON since 1908
Perfect games are rare when you consider the number of games played every year recently.
Another stat worth mentioning for pitchers specifically are no-hitters. In over 140 years of MLB there have been 325 no-hitters. That’s an average of around 2.3 per year.
6:04 I’m not sure about that specific game other than the fact the it was in extra innings and way ended with a walk off home-run.
But for there games if you see things like wild card, NLDS, ALDS, NLCS, ALCS, or World Series, those are all playoff games and very important.
Other than that they are very athletic or rare events like the grand slam: hitting a home-run with runner on every base
Perfect game: pitching an entire game no batter on the other team ever gets on base
Or just dramatic turn around that put one team in the lead or get them back in the game.
The playoffs for pretty much all the major sports is like this. It’s essentially the equivalent to the champions league knockout rounds.
Most of these are playoff games hence the reason for the crazy atmospheres
6:39 Honestly IMHO, that right fielder blew a world series for himself and his team by hesitating because of the wall because if he ran outright, it was very a catchable ball. He may have hit the wall a bit hard but who care, I'd even go through that wall to get that ring for my team mates. That would have the been the 3rd and final out and Texas would have won the World Series. Instead they lost this game which was game 6, then they lost game 7.
Baseball is so fun to watch. The best sport

6:28 sent three rays to the playoffs and eliminated the Red Sox.
October baseball is a sight to behold just like the champions league in your country
Theres a quality of the sound of the hit that you just know when its gone.
Yeah, they really should give more context in videos like this. I've been watching baseball all my life, and even pausing and squinting in at the game info I still can't remember what the significance of a lot of these moments are.
Watch highlights from the postseason that’s going on right now!!
A lot of drama with the Phillies v Braves series!
A perfect game is when the pitcher and fielding team don't allow any runs, hits, or errors to allow a man to get on base.
Grand slam- all bases loaded and a homerun is hit. 4 pts.
Goosebump moment?....When José Fernandez slid hard into second a year later and squared off with Rougned Odor, only to have Ruggie bust his jaw.
If you look by the fox logo it says if it is an important game. ALDS or ALCS / NLDS or NLCS
Divisional Series or League Championship Series or World Series.
A clean sweep is bringing all the people on all the bases in for four points.
When the bases are loaded and the batter hits a homerun thats called a grand slam.
They are called "runs" in baseball, not "points". And like the other person said, there is nothing called a clean sweep in baseball, that's a grand slam you described.
What?? It's called a grand slam and you score 4 runs, not points.
@@georgedolen1486 it has more then one name sir, I realized it's called a grand slam as well.
@@hifijohn you're right I was wrong lol
Please react to the full 7th inning of the Bautista game. One of the greatest 7th innings...ever in the history of the MLB.
Jose Fernandez crashed his boat at 65 MPH into a stone jetty at 3 AM while drunk and high on cocaine. The crash also killed two friends who were with him.
If Fernandez had survived, he would have belonged in prison for a very long time!
@@LiveFromThePorcelainPalaceit's one of those situations where for the fans it's probably better he ended up immortalized with his death. Sounds fucked up to say .. but you're not wrong. If he hypothetically survived but was at "fault" for the death of his two friends, plus the coke charges that would've come out from it. As beloved as he was, I doubt you could talk your way out of it when you're aboard a wrecked boat full of empties and a nice amount of cocaine surrounded by Coast Card boats
A grand slam is when there are 3 men on bases (bases are loaded) and the batter hits a home run, driving in 4 runs.
Hank Aaron, 714...Diamond backs Win 2001...Kurt Gibson....
It's a pity your upcoming trip is too late to go to a game in person. I think you said you're arriving on Nov 3rd, so you might be able to catch the end of the World Series on TV if it goes to a game 6 or 7.
Come to st.louis this coming summer and I'll take ya to a game
Not coming in to hate by any means just wanted to correct you so you know but that forts clip is Jose Fernandez I this you were thinking of Aaron Hernandez the football player love the videos brotha keep it up
There have been something like only two dozen perfect games in baseball history. . .
jose hernandez did die in a boating accident and toxicology results were that he had cocaine and alcohol in his system at the time
How many rednecks do the same thing on their boats and are more drunk or high than that?
So what
I know you don't read comments from non-paying subscribers but I begged you for a couple of years to react to Little League World Series highlights. This would be a good year to do it. A kid from California walked it off with a grand slam in the bottom of the last inning.
What a fabulous game that was!!!!
He used to read comments from everybody. I love Kabir but he oughtn’t discriminate against us proles. 😂
@@TheRandomRedSoxGuyWhen he first started he would actually respond to my comments and suggestions. Once he started getting paid he left the non-paying subscribers behind.
would you mind reacting to how geography made the US ridiculously OP? super cool vid

When they win a World Series their home city has a parade
These are post season games that s why the crowd is so loud, a typical game is nothing like this.
These are playoff winning homeruns
In 154 years their have been 24 perfect games
Only two home runs over 500 feet I know of. One was Ted Williams in the 1940s.
Baseball is about 170 games in a season. There are 30 teams in MLB. There are two leauges(American and National) and there are 3 divisions in each league. FIRST of all during the season you woul normally get electrifed as much as the complication because 170 games are like a marathon but there are STILL dramas and stories along the journey of this marathons. in a season less than say 10 times in 170 games in average meaning that baseball in general is boring as hell and even hurting if your team do not make the post season. Therefore. If your team played well and advance to post season. The vibe is a lot different around you. Your tean goes to division play off and if your team wins the division play offs and even win the league Championship - believe me vibe is hyped up like crazy people on the streets are talking about baseball all the them and if your team played soooo well that they even win the World Series Championship. In that particular year I can say you would get electrified more than 50 times guaranteed from wining the post season ticket to WSF every play become sooo meaningful. There is saying "How can you not be romantic about baseball".
Lmao homie thinking they’re honoring Aaron Hernandez at the beginning of
In the 80s and 90s they had steroids. I hate saying that because I love baseball, but it's the truth. Edit: very keen on including the Gibson home run winner. I saw that live as a little kid.
This video is incomplete without Kirby's Game 6.
MLB Postseason is VERY different than the 162 games played in the regular season. The ENERGY & the HYPE is INSANELY REAL! GO 'STROS!!!! 🧡💙⚾❗🤩😜
Fernandez was young and grew up poor. He just took the rich life by both hands and ended in disaster. He was acting like a mad man late at night on his boat on a bunch of alcohol and cocaine and ran his boat full speed into a rock outcrop and killed everyone on board. Theres text and things backing up that he had been acting wild all night. Probably the best pitcher in baseball when this happened. Its a travesty
I don't like the Yankees or Jeter, in fact, i dislike them both lol. But even I have to admit Jeter had a magical career. 5 World Series including one in his rookie season, great postseason numbers, his 3000th hit was a home run, for a guy not known as a power hitter, and in his last game in his home stadium, he had a walk off base hit. I think he was overrated, you can disagree, i really don't care, but the man had flair for the dramatic.
Jose Fernandez
He casually laughs at LeBron James in the audience
Thats the only Cubs championship in over 110 years…
108 years... We don't need any extra years added to it!
Baseball game, carnival atmosphere? What does that even mean. With each MLB team playing 162 games not every game will be a thrill a minute. But MLB paid attendance rebounded in 2023 with 70 million people attending games. People won't spend their hard earned money if it's not exciting and entertaining. BTW, MLB is a regional sport meaning a team like the LA Dodgers or NY Yankees can average 47,000 people per 81 home games but the entire country may not be interested in them, unlike NFL or even NBA teams
Just so you know, the batter can be ejected from the game if they throw their bat. It’s a safety issue.
Cubs had not won in 110 years!
Fernandez was killed in a boating accident he had cocaine in his system and was drunk.
I remember David Freese hitting that home run. Joe Buck repeated his Dad jack Bucks line. See you tomorrow night the Cards won the World Series Series the next night
Boating crash.
Fernandez was drunk and ran into a jetty
I missed the significance of most of these as well
