They both speak proper English which helps. I love Miggy in Detroit but come on man, you have been here for decades now and no one can understand a word you are saying.
don cherry Hahaha although that was mean, you’re completely right. ARod isn’t learning anything from Arenado at all. He’s just reporting and getting answers out of him for the viewers.
@@EthanC_09 jeter kinda sorta is overrated. Do i believe he should be a 1st ballot hof? probably yea, i could see it. is he a top 5 shortstop of all time? no. even tho he is known for the jump throw, his defensive war is the 2nd worst in history behind micheal young or yuniesky betancourt (started tht stat in the 90's i think or early 00's) he struck out the most out of all players with 3000 hits or more. never won an mvp (even tho he deserved it in 06) never really lead the league in any offensive stats (once or twice in hits) and his last couple of years were rlly bad (except the year before last) everyone praises jeter like he's the son of god and just because he stayed with 1 team. he only led his team to 1 ws (he didnt lead them in the late 90's he was a part of the team) watch the keith olbermann video on it. i still believe he's a 1st ballot, but he never would of gotten tht recognition if he played in Tampa or Milwaukee.
@@Kreamations Correct.. These idiots think A-Rod is genuinely curious and wanting to learn. He is just asking questions to help others that want to learn.
It isn’t as far as the camera looks. It’s 120 feet from base to base across the diamond so throws are usually gonna be a little less than that distance.
Yeah n nowaday most mlb hitter run 60 yd dashes under 7 seconds . Who know how fast to 1st they run 3.9s? You gotta have a cannon to play short and 3rd. At least throwing 90mph . You have to
@@bodacious117 they do though , it make not look like they’re running fast but they really are .. nowadays scouts n college coaches won’t even look at u if u don’t run a 60 yard dash under 7 seconds
You should see Manny Machado, he's better than Nolan Arenado any day! And Manny Machado has won 16 Gold Glove Awards and a platinum glove award. But I think Manny Machado might have one to platinum glove Awards.
@@aleji0 You are fucking crazy, Machado is better than Arenado any day, they've said many times that he's the best third baseman in the game, but I don't care what anyone else says or thinks, I can clearly see it with my own two eyes that Machado is better, so you can think whatever you want to, you are entitled to your own "opinion", so think what you want. You have it backwards, Arenado couldn't hold Machado's jock strap! 😂🤣😂🤣 Machado can make plays that makes Arendao look like a kid, and Machado's arm is way better, he has a cannon for an arm, a missile for that matter.
@@aleji0 Also, you have to remember that Machado was out for two seasons with injuries to his knees, so if he wouldn't have had those knee injuries, then he surely would have surpassed Arendao! And he came back and did better than anyone else ever has after sustaining those kinds of injuries, because players tend to play with a lot of precautions and tends to favor those injuries, meaning that he didn't act all afraid of his injuries he had, which most players tend to do.
I used to think that was just talk. Let's face it, they often say things about super stars to embellish their already great statures. But in A-Rod's case, he really IS a student of the game.
@@Trrippy_Shades SO you start juicing you won't hit anything the juice helped but at that time it was legal A Rod was a hall of fame before the juice same with bonds. Sosa no
That first base is so much farther than it looks during games. And they get that throw right every time . Respect to these guys for making this look so easy
That 240 feet feels like a mile, i completely agree. I played 2nd base and 3rd occasionally and i always overthrew at 3rd thinking i didn’t have enough on it.
I love Alex and his student of the game approach. He seems to truly always look to learn. He recognizes how gifted Nolan is on the diamond and tries to extract as much Info as possible
Huge Yankees fan, but I just became a big nolan arenado fan. Man is poised, respectful, humble and all his answers are clearly well thought out to a point where I know each and every part of how he plays the game is practiced fundamentally. What a guy!
Alex is great at paying compliments and the interview process. He gives the viewer the perspective of how difficult to execute some of the plays he talks about. Great job Alex!
As a new fan from the U.K. (we just got ESPN over here) this piece has just made me appreciate baseball 100% more. You got to understand no one plays it here, so when we see a standard throw straight to first base, it just looks so easy- when it seems it’s anything but! Big thumbs up and hopefully more vids like this 👍
can i just mention how great of a speaker nolan arenado is? thank you for not saying “um” every other sentence and giving a wonderful explanation. he’s honestly such a legend.
Arod and Tony Romo following very similar paths. Really good players on teams that people love to hate (myself included) but fantastic analytics making the games much more interesting to watch
I love how Nolan stresses the importance of the 1st baseman helping him out, and of him giving the 2nd baseman as good a feed as possible to make double plays. Really shows his team ethic
Lifelong Yankee fan I wasn’t a huge Arod fan but I think he’s an exceptional analyst and his love of the game is undeniable. That was an excellent interview with good questions having Nolan walk us through his thought process. And how bout them throws from one knee 🔥🔥🔥
mafiaserge23 - Just curious, why did Yankee fans hate ARod so much? Was it the beef with Jeter, and since Jeter was a career Yankee your loyalty lied with him? Was it the steroids? He had some absolutely amazing years for you guys, I mean yeah he cost a lot but I’ve never heard many Yankee fans complain about the money your FO spends. I’d just like to hear from an actual NY fan why you guys disliked him so much. Thanks!
Pierce Hubbard I think it was his attitude, he came across as fake. Maybe he was just misunderstood during his playing days because his love for the game and the Yankees seems quite genuine now. It never felt that way when he was playing. I don’t think it was entirely the steroids, Andy Pettitte did steroids and he’s still beloved by Yankee fans. The way Alex went about the whole steroid saga was an embarrassment. Threatening to sue everyone and denying everything; had he just owned up to his mistake in the moment it would have all blown over and been forgotten. No doubt he had some great years and was a huge part of the 09’ championship but he just felt phony. He’s much more genuine and likeable now and I enjoy his commentary and perspective. I wish he had acted this way as a Yankee.
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC STUFF! Insight into the prep and mindset of a gold glover, one of the greatest to play the position. I'm making my kid watch this over and over.
You don't get to be Nolan Arenado without doing more than that much work. How would he know how to do all this as in depth as he does without doing much more work than this. Just because he makes it look easy doesn't mean it comes easy.
@@icharpod Hard work and talent. I've gone a couple years without touching or hitting a baseball and it comes back to me like breathing air. Some people can just play. Same with any sport.
I am a Chinese father and my son is 6 years old. I am watching this intensively and I will pass these ADVANCED skills and tips to my son and how he loves them ;-) Thank you so much Alex for all your practical and yet challenging questions. And of course, Nolan, you are great man! Thanks for sharing this...
This is awesome with Alex Rodriguez, because he isn't scared of telling this superstars: hey, that is not what I want you to do... explain it... clearly. "get in the grass right here" Nolan: hehe (doesn't want to but gets down cause is ARod."
I always thought it was cool that A-Rod is such a fan of the game I remember when he was on the rangers after Seattle he was a favorite player as a kid I know he was on roids but I still think he's hall of fame worthy
It's like what Arod said in the beginning the plays that he makes and really all of these pros make look so easy but they are so difficult to pull off. Arenado seems like a class act, great video
One of the most informative, explanatory and honest videos I've seen regarding the craft that is professional sports. Alex's humility and simplicity are accented more by Arenado's graceful explanations of his movements and techniques. I honestly enjoyed this
I wish other sports had great content like this. Was never a big A-Rod fan, but he's gold at these types of segments. I just love watching him break down mechanics and thought processes in every type of situation.
I loved watching and playing baseball as a child. It is SO MUCH more enjoyable as an adult because your understanding is so different. These how to videos weren’t around when I was a kid, it’s so cool to see these now that I’m grown and no longer play.
This was really cool. A-Rod puts his ego aside to interview and compliment Arenado and asks questions only gold glove hall of famer would ask. Arenado did a great job in the interview too. Excellent stuff, Great job guys!
Nolan is Definitely A F Beast in Baseball and One of the Best. He avrgs about 40 homeruns a season. Man is an Outstanding 3rd baseman and can do it all. Look at his F arm strength, hes throwing bullets sitting down. Damn it doesn't get any better then a Platinum Glove.
everything about this video is great, from the questions to the answers to the examples. I really like how they brought the camera over just so we could see just how far away it is. Nolan does these awesome plays with such ease you dont realize what all goes into just one throw.........Great job all the way around.
Really like these video demonstrations. It gets me more interested to watch the game and appreciate it more. I also like ARod's assertiveness and aletness to know that the TV audience wants to see what is happening during the demo part of the interview. Keep it up!
Nolan Arenado: my favorite third baseman in all MLB and probably my favorite player overall. Edit: I can’t stop watching this video. Amazing chemistry; awesome questions and great answers. ARod is really a student of the game.
Ever since he retired I've grown to really like A-Rod. His admission and apology to steroids to being an analyst that knows cares about the game and explains the game really hits home. I have forgiven him and love what he has brought to the table. A-Rod is such a likeable dude now. As far as Nolan, I love him and wish him all the best in life. Such a gamer and a pleasure to watch. He's a great on his way to becoming an all time great and I hope he does since he is such a down to earth player
what A-Rod says:"Our viewers at home are confused walk us through what you mean." What A-Rod means: "I have no idea how you do this and I'm feeling a comeback, so show me all your tricks."
Nolan arenado is one of thee best 3rd baseman in baseball. Hes got great hand eye coordination and is always a step ahead of the game. Hes really good in batting as well as fielding. Keep up the great work nolaN arenado!!
Great video. Nolan does a great job of explaining defensive 3rd base but I'm even more impressed by A-Rod asking questions as though he doesn't know the answers...and they're good questions. Bonus points for him referring to Jeter even though he didnt have to.
Lol I’m a big golfer and when he’s talking about core and Coiling reminds me of using the ground and my right leg to gain power . Very good insight and reliable to a lot of sports
Goes to show how much A-Rod is Respected by future HOF's Like Nolan. A-Rod is a true student of the game! Kudos for Nolan's ability to physically and mentally breakdown the questions that were asked. This video should be shared to every HS player out there.
A-Rod is really excellent with his insightful questions here. Arenado is also very good at explaining his thought process, decision making, and body mechanics. This is a fascinating video that shows how how truly difficult playing the hot corner is, and how extraordinary Arenado is at doing it.
12:36 Arenado: Lets see if I can do it A-Rod: Alright lets see it. Arenado: *perfect throw* A-Rod: HUH?! How we doin?! Arenado: *2nd perfect throw* A-Rod: ...HUH?! Arenado: *another perfect throw* A-Rod: Hey uh, I got an idea.. Lol great video over all def some funny moments to remember in there. Also great example of giving credit where credit is due here. Thanks.
never thought i’d like a-rod but he’s gotta be the on of the best baseball announcers around rn. love watching sunday night baseball just to hear the insights a-rod gives cuz he’s not like deion sanders or michael irvin just talking about their glory days instead of the game today. well done a-roid
Between A-rod asking outstanding questions and Nolan's ability to actually explain himself, that made for one heck of a video. Awesome stuff.
Concrete K-9 2 I feel like ur the only person to watch a baseball video and talk about there conversation
iNdiGO What a pointless response to my comment.
They both speak proper English which helps. I love Miggy in Detroit but come on man, you have been here for decades now and no one can understand a word you are saying.
Own Youractions bruh it’s not easy to learn a language
@@guthriemoore4310 Yes, but after decades....
I like A-Rod's humility here. He made it all about Arenado and not himself.
Agree. Even made himself look lesser to make Arenado look better
@don cherry Thanks for sharing your fascinating insight.
Greatness recognizes greatness
Rare
He seems like a comfortable person to speak to gives attention to detail.
I love how Alex is being so attentive. The man is a legend in baseball yet he has such a drive to learn it from the view of another player.
Deggroll its even more interesting that hes so intrigued and wants to learn even though hes retired.
don cherry Hahaha although that was mean, you’re completely right. ARod isn’t learning anything from Arenado at all. He’s just reporting and getting answers out of him for the viewers.
@don cherry dude what in the world. Go take a xans and chill out. Besides he's an analyst not a reporter.
Lol. He isn't trying to learn. He is asking questions to help others that want to learn. You goofball.
Alex is a legend? You mean infamous?
funny how A-Rod has become the beloved TV poster boy, and Jeter has become the hated owner/GM
One was overrated and the other the greatest shortstop to lace 'em up
There is some beef there
jayceh in no way was Derek Jeter overrated. A Rod was a better SS, but Jeter is one of the best players ever, too.

@@balthazarstrivelli1736 That's so on the money its not even funny.
I’m a Red Sox fan and HATED A-ROD but ever since he’s in the booth and working as an analyst I love it. His knowledge of the game is unbelievable.
Same. That seems to be the universal opinion.
I agree.
Theres a reason he was scouted as an 80/80 in HS
He’s the tony romo of baseball
Everyone hates A-Roid as a player and as a person but he’s not a bad analyst/reporter
Arod is a great interviewer. He asks questions and has curiosity like the highest level of baseball he played was varsity 12th grade
I think its because ARod has played the highest level of the game that he's curious about how another great player performs.
Gunta G or he’s getting arenado to talk to the kids watching
@@Kreamations Correct.. These idiots think A-Rod is genuinely curious and wanting to learn. He is just asking questions to help others that want to learn.
klewik lol exactly. You think he doesn’t know how to throw to first base hahahaha
His questions are kinda stupid he asked if he spends time on his findamentals
A-Rod went from my favorite player to my favorite analyst. His breakdown, analysis, and attention to detail of the game is legendary.
He went from my least favorite player to my favorite analyst to be honest
@@Statikk I had the same exact thought
He’s unbelievable. He wasn’t one of my favorite players but I could listen to him talk baseball all day.
I liked him more after hearing him admit his horrible weakness, pop ups
Holy crap first base is in another time zone!!! 😮
My respect for third basemen and shortstops just doubled 🙌🙌

Nolan is Definitely A F Beast in Baseball and One of the Best. He avrgs about 40 homeruns a season. Man is an Outstanding 3rd baseman and can do it all. Look at his F arm strength, hes throwing bullets sitting down. Damn it doesn't get any better then a Platinum Glove.
everything about this video is great, from the questions to the answers to the examples. I really like how they brought the camera over just so we could see just how far away it is. Nolan does these awesome plays with such ease you dont realize what all goes into just one throw.........Great job all the way around.
Never was a big fan of A-Rod but Nolan is the man!
Really like these video demonstrations. It gets me more interested to watch the game and appreciate it more. I also like ARod's assertiveness and aletness to know that the TV audience wants to see what is happening during the demo part of the interview. Keep it up!
Arod takin grounders wit giussepes on is the next level lmao
Nolan Arenado: my favorite third baseman in all MLB and probably my favorite player overall.
Edit: I can’t stop watching this video. Amazing chemistry; awesome questions and great answers.
ARod is really a student of the game.
I want to see Arod's reaction when players tells Arod, "I've watch you play since I was a kid"
Ever since he retired I've grown to really like A-Rod. His admission and apology to steroids to being an analyst that knows cares about the game and explains the game really hits home. I have forgiven him and love what he has brought to the table. A-Rod is such a likeable dude now. As far as Nolan, I love him and wish him all the best in life. Such a gamer and a pleasure to watch. He's a great on his way to becoming an all time great and I hope he does since he is such a down to earth player
what A-Rod says:"Our viewers at home are confused walk us through what you mean."
What A-Rod means: "I have no idea how you do this and I'm feeling a comeback, so show me all your tricks."
Nolan arenado is one of thee best 3rd baseman in baseball. Hes got great hand eye coordination and is always a step ahead of the game. Hes really good in batting as well as fielding. Keep up the great work nolaN arenado!!
7:04 Nolan flinched hard af 💀 thought he was slick 😂
Oh my lol
he was just going through his motion of his throw
Great video. Nolan does a great job of explaining defensive 3rd base but I'm even more impressed by A-Rod asking questions as though he doesn't know the answers...and they're good questions. Bonus points for him referring to Jeter even though he didnt have to.
There's something pure about baseball.
Amazing video . Loved watching this . 2 greats talking ball. Alex acting like he don’t knew anything makes me smile
Arod probably my fav. analyst at the moment.
jay rosales Big Papi!
Alex Rodriguez is actually so good at these kind of interviews! He’s a solid guy and actually a really good interviewer and commenter.
That's why Arenado deserves six-in-a row of Gold Glove Awards
I feel much better about all my 1994 ARod PSA SP rookie investments after watching this video. Humble and great questions.
Wish I was that guy fielding 1st..how awesome
Saints9Fan i believe that is Nolan’s cousin Josh Fuentes over there at 1st
Actually it’s a local guy Tino Vigil! He’s a good kid!
Jack Stone aww ok! Just assumed based on Nolan being comfortable and Fuentes being the 1st baseman right now ha
Ryno Sports Talk Productions rip I should be there😂😂😂, I’m his cousin but live across the country. Lol
Easy ass job when all the balls are dead on chest high lol.
Lol I’m a big golfer and when he’s talking about core and Coiling reminds me of using the ground and my right leg to gain power . Very good insight and reliable to a lot of sports
He makes that throw from the knees look so easy. Takes a lot of strength
Such a great ballplayer, Nolan is. A treat for myself as a third basemen to learn from.
That's why nolan is my favorite player
Thank you ESPN for putting this out uncut.... such a great video.
Let’s get a Machado and Tatis Jr AROD video yeah?
That would be badass!
Goes to show how much A-Rod is Respected by future HOF's Like Nolan. A-Rod is a true student of the game! Kudos for Nolan's ability to physically and mentally breakdown the questions that were asked. This video should be shared to every HS player out there.
A rod still have Smooth handling. He still got the class.
A-Rod is really excellent with his insightful questions here. Arenado is also very good at explaining his thought process, decision making, and body mechanics. This is a fascinating video that shows how how truly difficult playing the hot corner is, and how extraordinary Arenado is at doing it.
12:36
Arenado: Lets see if I can do it
A-Rod: Alright lets see it.
Arenado: *perfect throw*
A-Rod: HUH?! How we doin?!
Arenado: *2nd perfect throw*
A-Rod: ...HUH?!
Arenado: *another perfect throw*
A-Rod: Hey uh, I got an idea..
Lol great video over all def some funny moments to remember in there.
Also great example of giving credit where credit is due here. Thanks.
I like how there is not cuts, the rawness is dope
Would love to see videos like this for every position
Absolutely post the links please if you find them
never thought i’d like a-rod but he’s gotta be the on of the best baseball announcers around rn. love watching sunday night baseball just to hear the insights a-rod gives cuz he’s not like deion sanders or michael irvin just talking about their glory days instead of the game today. well done a-roid
I like A-Rod. He’s a true baseball fan.
Phenomenal content. A-Rod is a treasure. His passion is so obvious.
