ARod was an absolute MONSTER in that playoff championship run. Once he woke up, everything changed for the Yankees. They became that much more devastating, and were damn near impossible to beat.
Thats exactly it. Those first couple of games against the twins allowed him to relax, which then carried over to the rest of the lineup. It made them even scarier than they already were.
@@Yoy28 looking back on it, we should’ve known he was gonna be good this postseason after that 2 home run 7RBI inning to end the season and go 30/100 on the season
@@axlestarr4393 Matsui carried us in the World Series, but we wouldn't have gotten there without A-Rod. Matsui scored one run and 3 RBIs with .670 OPS in the ALCS. A-Rod scored six runs and 6 RBIs with 3 home runs and 1.519 OPS in the ALCS. He single-handedly carried our offense the entire series and was involved in more than 1/3 of our entire runs scored. The 2009 ALCS was extremely close... 3 games were decided by one run, and 5 games were decided by within three runs.
Game 3 game tying homer against Nathan. 😂 I was there. I was working in gate six cleaning. Boy that was special to watch. Yankee stadium erupted. Had a older lady hug me randomly 😂
That hit in game 4 of the WS was the most important hit of that and mayb3 his career....if yanks los3 game 4 then they have to face Lee which they lost in game 5 now its 3 2 series lead Philly heading back to NY making them have to win game.6.and 7
Would be nice if we can get someone getting into a postseason hot streak like that again. I get the feeling #28 happens before Judge turns into Mattingly 2.0, it'll happen through over performance a la 2000.
Matsui did just that little bit more in the WS, but if there were an overall playoffs MVP, and we all agreed that Mo can't get it every year, Arod would have 2009 for sure.
I also never understood how cc who yes pitched 2 games in the alcs but without arod they don't win. Hideki ws mvp deserved for sure...but without arod all year long and playoffs they don't win
@@tjcoopssteroids aren’t magic lmao thousands of players in the minors did steroids and never made the show cause they weren’t good enough. I wish it was as easy as doing steroids and becoming one of the greatest hitters ever

ARod carried us in the 2009 playoffs. So happy for him!!!
Matsui shouldered a lot of that as well

ALEX IS THE HERO THAT GOT US THERE IN '09!!!! THANK YOU FOREVER A-ROD!!! LEGEND!!!!!!
What a great time this was to be a Yankees fan
yankees do not win the world series without a-rod, he carried us
He woke up but they don't win without Matsui
@@MrRhemmy25 i’ll never deny hideki’s incredible performance that world series. always was a fan
Bro a rod was crap in that world series. He was solid in the earlier series

People need this reminder

Alex extraordinario.
When a rod played well the Yankees were nearly impossible to beat
Damn, uses the entire field, line to line, with power.
My boy was a beast mode 💪 09
I can’t believe the Yanks haven’t won one since... Let’s go Yankees!! Glory once again!
One of the best stances/swings in baseball history.
If A-Rod played the 09' regular season like he played in the 09' ALDS & ALCS & WS they would of beat the 98' yanks record 100%
22 hits and 6 hole runs all meaningful what a post
Would be nice if we can get someone getting into a postseason hot streak like that again.

Alex was locked in!
El mejor

Alex Rodríguez He took over
I think he had 19 rbi not 19 hits...I may be wrong
18 RBIs.
@iamhungey12345 true...I went by memory thought I knew
@iamhungey12345 I think chase Utley had 19 hr lol mostly off CC
@@mmucc073 The Phillies fans wished he did.
So weird seeing the angels in the playoffs
They were a constant playoff team in the 2000's...not so much in the Trout era. 😂
1:21 AROD home run off Yankees legend Carl Pavano
championship Alex Rodríguez is called
Mashing
la franquicia de los mellizos no puede con Alex Rodriguez
You forget the Yankees DID hit Cliff Lee - they just couldn't beat him either game.
Was he in steroids in that year in the postseason ?
No, well, he never failed a test during that time anyway.

@@JuanLeche8 how does that apply to what I said?
Jesus Christ joe bucks calls are the worst!!! Especially when someone hits a late inning dramatic hr
