Such an underrated movie. It’s gives a different perspective as compared to “Moneyball”, another great movie. I wholeheartedly believe there is a balance between stats and good scouts. Having a coach compare you to Sandy Koufax is a tremendous observation and compliment. If you don’t know who Koufax was, look him up. Steve Carlton and Randy Johnson are two other greats by all accounts.
I played ball for my father, a USN vet from WW2. He was a Seabee stationed in the Philippines. Tough as nails. What that man could do with a fungo bat always amazed me and my teammates. Miss ya Pop's. I'll never forget all you taught me. I'm teaching my two boys now.
Rest in Peace Seabee. Sorry for your loss sir. I was a seabee as well. Alot of people have never even heard of seabees Just know that what the seabees, and your father, did during WWII was amazing
I actually just ran into a flat-earther the other day. I was picking my son up from school and I noticed that he was playing with a kid and the kid's mom was there, so we let them play and got to talking. Our conversation didn't last for too long though. It quickly escalated into an argument, and it ended with her grabbing her son and storming off to her car, while my son and I looked on in confusion. Turns out she's an anti-vaccer, and we got to arguing over that. She called me a gullible sheep that would believe in anything that the government and scientists claims to be true. Then she literally said "I bet you're one of those lemming round-earthers too"! A grown-up, college educated, employeed, mother actually said that to me. She rolled her eyes, shook her head, and responded sarcastically and rudely to me whenever I brought up actual facts that prove the earth to be spherical, and vaccinations to be healthy. She ended the conversation by loudly screaming at me to "WAKE UP"!! I honestly thought that these people were just trolling on the internet, but I just learned the hard way that they do indeed exist. They actually believe that the sun and moon are under a large dome that covers the disc-shaped earth. I imagine it looks like a giant snow-globe from God's point of view. (And now I'm wondering if flat-earthers are predominantly religious, or if they're atheists?) Her explanation of gravity was her funniest argument, and it's what ended our conversation. According to her, gravity is apparently the result of a constant force of "universal acceleration" that forever accelerates the snow-globe, flat-earth upwards at a constant rate of acceleration. That's why we feel a downward force acting on us at all times, and we mistake it for gravity as a result. When I asked what caused this "universal acceleration force", and why the snow-globe, flat-earth hasn't accelerated faster than the speed of light yet, she stormed off. I guess my laughing didn't help. I only wish that I had it on camera. It would have been funny to have that interaction recorded. Plus then I'd have her obnoxious, "WAKE UP", scream recorded. I could use it as my son's alarm tone, as he has trouble waking up in the mornings. EDIT: This exchange happened before the coof and when I said this woman was against vaccination I meant it in the Jenny McCarthy sense. She believed that vaccinating your children against things like the measles would somehow turn them autistic. This had nothing to do with the 'rona as it wasn't even a thing at the time.
This is a great scene in so many ways. A lot of people have commented that this movie was made by people who well and truly love baseball. I'm inclined to agree. But there is so much more to this scene besides a quick tryout. The batter has been nothing but a show off throughout the movie, claiming he's God's gift to baseball. Meanwhile, Rigo is soft spoken and extremely modest. He plays because he loves it and honestly never thought about becoming a pro player. Honestly, that is what makes a great player. They don't care about money, fame, or endorsements. They care about playing the game and having fun. I love the fact that Rigo is the one to expose his weakness and (not literally) knock him on his ass. After being teased or bullied, it's very satisfying to see this kind of payback.
I think being like Rigo is would make you a good person, but it doesn't really affect how good or bad you are. For example, Barry Bonds had an absolutely massive ego and could be a real jerk about it too. In an interview during his playing days a reporter brought up how arrogant people thought he was and Bonds said, "I'm not arrogant, I'm good!" He was a lot of fun to watch, but man was he a grade A prick.
What are you talking about, this movie is full of stereotypes and racism, the bad white guys in gentry and shaggy, the good white guys in Clint Eastwood, Addams and goddman and the “overlooked” Latino, black Asian whatever you want to insert, this movie sadly is like the USA has always been the “good” guys no racist people which must be only the 1% of population
I remember playing catch with my dad. When he was farming back when he was 21 he lost the tips of his pointer finger and middle finger on his riht hand, fortunately he was wearing gloves and the Dr. at the hospital was able to sew them back on but they were permanently bent forward. When he would throw the ball to me that ball would dance and jig around like crazy…it was amazing. He would just smile…great times. Thank You Dad…Miss You. Your Number One.
In reality though, if a true pro batter knows ahead of time what's coming, it would be a slammer. It's the only thing that makes this scene unrealistic. It's why pro and college pitchers have a sleeve (in today's game) so they know what to throw to what players based on their known weaknesses.
@@dj3114 not necessary earlier in the movie they make a point that he has trouble hitting curve even when he knows its coming. Has a reds fan, I seen countless players know a curve coming and just whiff. Willy mo Pena , I looking at you
@@Notgoingtoprovide While I understand your point as to the movie, there is no pro ball player (even D1 College, AA or AAA) that can't effectively hit a curve, or they wouldn't be on the team. The trick is trying to anticipate whats coming. The homers are those that did.
@@shaunthesheep2325 No the joke is that in anime they always do shit like that like this guy will win a race and then after winning it he'll reveal he had 2000 pounds on his legs ... like they always try to throw in a thing that makes what they did more impressive . oh and I know what you mean but the most confusing shit as a batter is when the pitcher is a switch pitcher I could only dream of being able to do what switch pitchers do

+Elijah Miller you really don't get it. in baseball, that's why you keep the pitch a secret. if batter knows what's coming then bye bye ball. yes it's a movie, but it's excellent writing by making the point of how the batter knew what was coming and still whiffs every pitch.
exactly! shows great writing by making a point that the type pitch was verbally announced, letting the batter know what was coming, and therefore should have been able to beat that ball to death. instead, it was whiff city every pitch. the writer knows their baseball.....
My great uncle pitched for the Newark Bears back in the 1940's. He said he'd ride his bike to the stadium. He'd sometimes pitch a double header and win both games. His pitch was a fork ball. I remember the space between his index and middle finger was like the space between the index and ring on most people. He wanted to go pro, but got injured in WWII. He was a nice man, gave me pointers on pitching when I was in high school.
I watch this clip at least once a week. Nothing better than someone with an overinflated ego get put in their place. Inspiring if someone has abilities and given the chance they will succeed.
I am Irish, have watched hundreds of baseball games since childhood (and it’s not even my favourite sport). I think watching Vin Scully’s recent message prompted this to show up.

Non sono un appassionato di baseball, però questo film mi è piaciuto molto, grande Clint, bella storia,queste storie a lieto fine vorrebbero anche nella realtà,ma purtroppo non è sempre così
Daniel Bendheim I first thought it was because of chipper Jones leaving (because he was and still is my favorite) but in reality it was because of bobby cox. I mean seriously last I checked braves only had 3 big names (not including pitchers). Seriously though, McCain, ugla, and that SS that got traded in like 15 or 16 that was freaking awesome. Seriously though freeman is probably the best they got (if he still plays).
This is the first movie I remember seeing Amy Adams in. I fell in love (with her acting and appearance) very quickly. I like nearly everything she has been in. I'm still making my way through that list.
Tiberius X Scooby pissed off skynet because he peed on a terminator while he was with shaggy, accidentally joined the t1000 on the trip to go back to the Stone Age to kill the Fred Flintstone since he turns out to be the ancestor to John Conner, but glitches out when Fred threw a rock at him, and was transported to this time period with no memories just lying on a baseball field and thinking they’re players. It’s all in the wiki
Agreed - and he was late, every time. Dead pull and golf swinging. His mouth couldn’t back it up. Rigoberto’s attitude is the CORRECT one for an big league pitcher. No stress. No worries. Trusts his stuff. Confident. The look on his face said - I belong here. BTW - Amy Adams is so hot.
@@DocJoeStan No, he was not in the scene, and for the sake of a healthier UA-cam, stop replying to relevant, constructive comments with lame, half-baked bullcrap. You make us all look bad.

Absolutely wrong Jockney. The world will mean a whole lot less after the rapture. Mass confusion, mass hysteria, mass riots.... we all need Righteous Invasion Of Truth.
Damn.. I missed my dad! He’s a lefty pitcher in his hey days and can throw that curve and slider like it’s nothing! Even in softball he’s unbelievable.. I wish I stick to baseball when I was a kid and he’s training me to be like him but I don’t have the balls to catch those curve ball everyday we’re training.. Rest in Peace Dad!
I played 12 inch softball as a lefty first baseman and had a lefty third basemen who could throw a 90 mile an hour fast ball at 14 years old. Twice I caught her fast ball barehanded in 1 game to tag out a runner. Couldn't write or use my hand for a week. She went on to play professional fast pitch and play for team usa twice. Still throwing 90 mile an hour.
pretty sure he got the warm out away from camera before even shooting the scene. It would be too obvious if he was doing a warm-up and let them know he was going to pitch? don't you think?
iatsd I mean yeah. Superman just takes off without stretching first? What if he pulled a hammy or something? He wouldn’t feel very super then. So fake.
I'm a movie fan and I've loved baseball since age 5. The wonderful thing about this movie...it was created by people who obviously know and love the game. It may sound corny to some, but baseball is often a metaphor for life...and this film nails it! Thanks baseball, and thanks Clint.
Baseball, ther ain't nothing like it. Love this movie. I was a lefty in high school, still am, not fast but could make the ball really move. My greatest accomplishment was in American I pitched a nine inning no hitter. God i miss the seventies. That was as far as I went in baseball, boy do i miss it. If i had one wish it would be to run like twelve year old.
I can tell you from experience, it isn't that easy. I pitched a tournament where the team just absolutely crushed our fastest pitcher the first game. Score was 18-1 and we were mercy ruled out in the 4th inning. The second time we played that team...I pitched and threw literally nothing but curve balls. We still lost, but the score was a much more manageable 2-1. It was in that game I realized that I had actual potential to become a decent pitcher, and ended up getting an award at the end of the tournament for that game. You have to know how to hit a curve, and when it comes to professionals...they can move the ball in some magnificent ways which make it all but impossible to hit consistently. Have you ever tried to hit a curve ball from a really good pitcher?
@Kunth well...since it was the final in a tournament...I would say they were not playing anything but their best. Who goes into a tournament final thinking anything but put your best out there?
Charlie Odom if this guy it’s supposedly the braves #1 prospect, if he knows for sure it’ll be a fastball the ball should be at the very least into the outfield
@@theamphibiousbean5285 yes he should! He should also be able to at least hit a curve ball when he knows it is coming. I'm not saying crush it, just make ANY contact at all! Foul ball, dribbler to the 3rd baseman, anything. The point of the movie is made well, and is compounded by the fact that she brings in a good no name pitcher, but this guy was really made a fool of in this scenario. Having done the same thing to batters in a tournament, I can honestly say I know how the poor cocky guy feels. I felt like the best pitcher in the world that day, and had an entire tournament of people watching batter after batter strike out. I was well known for my curve ball and since I didn't have a fast arm, relied on it and accuracy heavily. The team we lost to in that final went on to win multiple multistate tournaments that year, and had my parents had the money, I would have been playing with them. Hell, I went to school with almost all of them and grew up competing with them on a regular basis.

Non sono un appassionato di baseball, però questo film mi è piaciuto molto, grande Clint, bella storia,queste storie a lieto fine vorrebbero anche nella realtà,ma purtroppo non è sempre così
This is a great movie Clint Eastwood never disappoints.
"...and he doesn't even have to warm up! he's amazing!"
I woke up in chris browns body
And on top of that he tells “The Best hitter” on the Braves the pitch he’s throwing and he can’t hit it
@@bkhighlights6855 you did say braves...
Bret Archibald uh yeah
After all it's just a game
Good representation of Braves batting
Daniel Bendheim I first thought it was because of chipper Jones leaving (because he was and still is my favorite) but in reality it was because of bobby cox. I mean seriously last I checked braves only had 3 big names (not including pitchers). Seriously though, McCain, ugla, and that SS that got traded in like 15 or 16 that was freaking awesome. Seriously though freeman is probably the best they got (if he still plays).
What team do you support so I can make fun of them? Let me guess the Astros.
Sad but true. Been a Braves fan most of my life. Miss the players like David Justice and Greg Maddox back in the day.
Ikr, and that is coming from a braves fan.

This is the first movie I remember seeing Amy Adams in. I fell in love (with her acting and appearance) very quickly. I like nearly everything she has been in. I'm still making my way through that list.
she never made enough films imho. and now time has run out to.
Knows it's coming and he still can't hit it...lol...best line ever!
The T1000 is not happy...
that really did make me LOL.
Billy Idol was the first choice to play the villain in Terminator 2, until he had that motorcycle accident.
Jeff Hossburner bwahahaha😅
can you blame him, he's still looking for John Connor
Thank you.
I enjoy almost every Eastwood film, and almost every Amy Adams film. A great idea to combine two super likeable people.
The Trouble With The Curve is one of my favorite Clint Eastwood movies. ⚾️
Good to see a few legends in one scene and the versatile Matthew Lillard.
What's shaggy, t1000 and Fred Flintstone doing there...?
Tiberius X
Scooby pissed off skynet because he peed on a terminator while he was with shaggy, accidentally joined the t1000 on the trip to go back to the Stone Age to kill the Fred Flintstone since he turns out to be the ancestor to John Conner, but glitches out when Fred threw a rock at him, and was transported to this time period with no memories just lying on a baseball field and thinking they’re players.
It’s all in the wiki
I know I know
There's Babe Ruth and the Man with No Name too!
Don’t forget Dirty Harry
t1000 would still kick you ass...you see that stare?
Love this movie.
One of the best movies I watched,
He said it was gonna be ugly. The only thing ugly there was his swing.
Everything about this was so bad 😂
No follow through swing every time he whiffed.
somewhere, that nerdy high school teammate of Gentry is laughing, hahaha
Agreed - and he was late, every time. Dead pull and golf swinging. His mouth couldn’t back it up. Rigoberto’s attitude is the CORRECT one for an big league pitcher. No stress. No worries. Trusts his stuff. Confident. The look on his face said - I belong here.
BTW - Amy Adams is so hot.
When Clint Eastwood says just hold your ass right there, you hold your ass right there!
Not included in this video, but one of the best lines from the GM: "He knows it's coming and he still can't hit it."
Greg Maddux was in the scene?
@@DocJoeStan No, he was not in the scene, and for the sake of a healthier UA-cam, stop replying to relevant, constructive comments with lame, half-baked bullcrap. You make us all look bad.
@@JustCallMeLoathesome Maddux quote "No need to steal the sign. I'll tell you what I throw. It's an 89 MPH sinker, and you won't even swing at it." Relevant? Where was this seen filmed? And who pitched from that mound?
A new favorite movie.... haven't tired of MLB Network showing this.
The world will mean a little less when we lose Mr Eastwood. Somehow the word “legend” seems a little inadequate.
THE BEST EVER CLINT
@Jon Hawkins The Sandlot reference! Nicely done
What really matters, is where he spends eternity ...
Absolutely wrong Jockney.
The world will mean a whole lot less after the rapture. Mass confusion, mass hysteria, mass riots.... we all need Righteous Invasion Of Truth.
George Ross keep your indoctrinated, unsubstantiated nonsense to yourself please.
Clint says 'just hold your ass right there', the whole world stops.
I forgot about this one. This was a great movie.
....’he knew what was coming and he STILL missed!......such a great, great scene.....
..great when arrogance is humbled..reminded me of the Natural..
Video starts by Shaggy bringing Fred Flintstone, retired Dirty Harry, and a Terminator...I'll watch the clip.
😅
LMFAO
Yo, my man, what about the crazy chick from Wedding Crashers?
@@jerrylee2389 it's not the same chick that's why lol
@@jerrylee2389 Lois Lane is more like it
Out of the entire movie, this is my favorite scene. Go Rigoberto!!
I know nothing about baseball but i loved that movie. 👍🇿🇦
Anyone else hear a trash bin bang when she called the curve?
Oretola Thomas 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bahahaha good one😅
Lmao 😂
Astros started the Coronavirus so people could forget about their little scandal
This is the Braves stadium.. not Houston
The movie is titled "Trouble with the curve" I've rented it twice and will watch again.
Million dollar arm
The biggest trouble with a curve in this movie is the absence of one in this scene.
@@MrDanielWP Right? A sinker isn't a curve..
@@shinigamigaming2941 12-6
I love this movie!! My favorite team World Championship Atlanta braves and my favorite scene in this movie "Trouble with the curve"
Love this scene.
It’s so nice to be back at Turner Field. I never realized how much I miss it.
Doug Alexander yeah so much history 👎🏻
were you the groundskeeper or the peanut guy?
So much better than that concrete mall with a baseball stadium crammed inside of it that the Braves use now.
Yeah, No Joke!! I loved Turner Field. I went once to Suntrust and never plan to go back!!
steve sloan a true Braves fan!
Shaggy casually disguising himself as a mortal
wasn't he in that great movie, haha, called Summer Catch?? LOL
Love this scene!!!!
Saw at movie theatre. Terrific movie.
Damn.. I missed my dad! He’s a lefty pitcher in his hey days and can throw that curve and slider like it’s nothing! Even in softball he’s unbelievable.. I wish I stick to baseball when I was a kid and he’s training me to be like him but I don’t have the balls to catch those curve ball everyday we’re training.. Rest in Peace Dad!
I am sorry for your loss.
There is always hope in the Resurrection
I played 12 inch softball as a lefty first baseman and had a lefty third basemen who could throw a 90 mile an hour fast ball at 14 years old. Twice I caught her fast ball barehanded in 1 game to tag out a runner. Couldn't write or use my hand for a week. She went on to play professional fast pitch and play for team usa twice. Still throwing 90 mile an hour.
Sorry for your loss 🙏🏾
Though of my Dad he was a great catcher. He would have loved this kid.
My dad was Nolan Ryan
"Start with the fast ball....
No warm-up pitches. Just start firing heaters. Destroy your shoulder for all these nice people. That's it, good job!"
pretty sure he got the warm out away from camera before even shooting the scene. It would be too obvious if he was doing a warm-up and let them know he was going to pitch? don't you think?
It's a movie, not a documentary or training film. Do you complain about all the flying and magic stuff during super hero movies too?
iatsd I mean yeah. Superman just takes off without stretching first? What if he pulled a hammy or something? He wouldn’t feel very super then. So fake.
@Dane Mallon *you're
Always with the negative waves, Moriarty. It's just a movie.
This was a great scene !!
Great movie, very well done.
I'm a movie fan and I've loved baseball since age 5. The wonderful thing about this movie...it was
created by people who obviously know and love the game. It may sound corny to some, but baseball
is often a metaphor for life...and this film nails it! Thanks baseball, and thanks Clint.
Scott Lunsford what's the name of the movie ??
Trouble with the curve.
Name plz
Name of the movie…?
Yes it is.
I admit I cried at the end of Field of Dreams.
Many of us tossed the ball around with a dad who is now in heaven.
I love the way she says "Rigoberto Sánchez".
Spanish speakers cringed
She did a huge effort rolling that R. Who knows for how long she sat in front of the mirror going at it.
I still don't understand how's possible that some people love this sport.
One of the best moments in sport fiction movie history.
Peanut Boy had game, they would all learn that on the whim of an aging recruiting agents daughters perception of a “sound” she heard while hung over.
Movie Name: Trouble with the Curve
Thanks bro
Dude thanks
Absolutely brilliant film
Forget about the curveball, Ricky... Give em' the heater!
I love endings like this. Never underestimate anyone. A NATURAL a future goat
Loved this part of the movie. The peanut vendor gets his revenge.
@samprity chowdhury , Trouble With the Curve
Every Clint Eastwood movie has one or 2 scenes that are perfect in every way
And this isn’t one of them…
@@vinnygi troll
Baseball, ther ain't nothing like it. Love this movie. I was a lefty in high school, still am, not fast but could make the ball really move. My greatest accomplishment was in American I pitched a nine inning no hitter. God i miss the seventies. That was as far as I went in baseball, boy do i miss it. If i had one wish it would be to run like twelve year old.
Cómo se llama la pelicula
You cut out one of the best lines by Robert Patrick: "He knows what's coming and still can't hit it".
Damn. I wonder if the sense of Irony escaped from anyone there, during the filming of this scene....
actually Mr 1000 says that
@ryan norris Nowadays, possibly. For some , those Woke lines are kind of blurry....
“Show em’ the curve”
Pulls pants down
The Houston Astros knew what was coming in 2017... but not in 2020 :P
T-1000 was looking for John Connor but found Dan Connor instead!!!!!!!
customcruzer I see what you did there lol
😂😂😂😂👍👍👍👍. Aka...... Fred Flintstone.
I know this hurts. Throw to John now!
Looks like sandy Kofax. Greatest compliment ever. There was no greater pitcher and never will be.
She's beautiful ❤❤❤
This guy knows what's coming and still can't get a hit in five pitches?
He has no business playing pro ball.
I can tell you from experience, it isn't that easy.
I pitched a tournament where the team just absolutely crushed our fastest pitcher the first game. Score was 18-1 and we were mercy ruled out in the 4th inning.
The second time we played that team...I pitched and threw literally nothing but curve balls. We still lost, but the score was a much more manageable 2-1.
It was in that game I realized that I had actual potential to become a decent pitcher, and ended up getting an award at the end of the tournament for that game.
You have to know how to hit a curve, and when it comes to professionals...they can move the ball in some magnificent ways which make it all but impossible to hit consistently. Have you ever tried to hit a curve ball from a really good pitcher?
@Kunth well...since it was the final in a tournament...I would say they were not playing anything but their best. Who goes into a tournament final thinking anything but put your best out there?
Charlie Odom if this guy it’s supposedly the braves #1 prospect, if he knows for sure it’ll be a fastball the ball should be at the very least into the outfield
@@theamphibiousbean5285 yes he should! He should also be able to at least hit a curve ball when he knows it is coming. I'm not saying crush it, just make ANY contact at all! Foul ball, dribbler to the 3rd baseman, anything.
The point of the movie is made well, and is compounded by the fact that she brings in a good no name pitcher, but this guy was really made a fool of in this scenario.
Having done the same thing to batters in a tournament, I can honestly say I know how the poor cocky guy feels. I felt like the best pitcher in the world that day, and had an entire tournament of people watching batter after batter strike out. I was well known for my curve ball and since I didn't have a fast arm, relied on it and accuracy heavily. The team we lost to in that final went on to win multiple multistate tournaments that year, and had my parents had the money, I would have been playing with them. Hell, I went to school with almost all of them and grew up competing with them on a regular basis.
Everyone knew that Mo Rivera was gonna throw a cutter and still couldn't hit it
Get the last line in - he can’t hit it even when he know’s what’s coming - or something LI Luu e it. Classic!
