Ok, I'm confused. Didn't he catch the ball for the out? Why does he have to throw to first to get the out after already catching it? What am I missing here? 2:27
brmillgr it's kind of impossible to do it on the show especially the reaction on your fielders but on MLB 2K you can do it since the outfielders reaction aren't as slow as on the show
The great Tigers right fielder Al Kaline ( 1st ballot HOF ) in the 1960s , threw out more runners at first than any other right fielder I've ever seen.
@@wildmercuryfilms The run doesn't count, even if the runner crossed the plate first, if the out is recorded at first base before the runner gets there, or on a force play on the bases.
I was watching a Braves game on TBS in the late 90s and this happened to John Smoltz. I remember it primarily because it was rare and because Tom Glavine and Greg Maddux were laughing hysterically in the dugout.
It’s crazy to think that those three were in the same pitching staff and had only 1 ring to show for it. They should’ve won more. And this is coming from a Marlins fan lol. I really don’t like Atlanta
In the 80's the Phillies had a right fielder named Glenn Wilson. This guy had a 120 mm cannon for a throwing arm. He had many assists at first base. BTW, on that last clip, the announcers are correct. The run does not score. Its a routine force out at first base. Same as if it was hit to any player in the infield
What's outrageous about that last putout (starting at 4:08) isn't Bautista's great throw to first, it's the cluelessness of the Toronto hitter -- off the bat you can see he thought it was going to be a foul ball into the stands so he deliberately turned around so he wouldn't have to watch where it landed. If he had bothered running out of the box he'd have had a bloop base hit -- great throw or no great throw.
That's why if it even has a chance of staying fair, always run. Yeah, you'll have to run back to the plate and pick your bat back up if it does turn foul, but then this won't happen. Only stay at the plate if it's obvious right off the bat it's gonna be foul
When I played baseball in middle school, we were practicing against another team, and a kid hit a ball that bounced to me in left field. I noticed he was practically skipping to first base, so I took a chance and threw the ball across the entire field. It took him a solid two minutes to fully comprehend that he was thrown out.
this is my favourite play in baseball. I was moved to right field in my teen years and i made this play my specialty. I once did it twice in one inning.
As a slow-footed player, it's happened to me. I was out by a step and a half, gunned down by a strong-armed right fielder who was playing fairly shallow. All you can do is shrug your shoulders.
I think the reason we don't see this happen even more is that if someone has a tendency to hit it there, the defense will shift. So when it does happen, it's because the hitter is going away from his own tendencies.
Sean Casey had something like this happen to him. It may have been 5-7-3, where he thought the third baseman caught the ball. Either way, it was fucking ridiculous.
I was thinking the same thing. I believe it was in 2006, but Casey hit a hard liner to 3rd, which deflected off the third baseman's glove. However, Casey didn't see the ball go into the outfield, so he started walking to the dugout. His teammates told him to run to first, but he was eventually thrown out.
i had it flipped in my head at first, i was thinking of a 7-3 putout. even more rare: the 3-9 or 3-7 putout. at some point in time somewhere, theyve surely happened.
Wow, what a great call on the Michael Taylor put out. I was nearly certain it was a tie until watching the slo-mo over and over, which makes it clear (albeit extremely close) that he was out.
The A's Right Fielder deserves alot of credit realizing if he gets the batter before he touches first the run dosnt count. He was throwing to first the entire time didn't even think about throwing home or anywhere else. Smart Right Fielder
With baseball players trending larger and larger and slower and slower. Coupled with faster batted ball exit velocities these should become more common. In fact they should already, there's just a lack of effort to do so day in day out. Singles should be close plays at first and not left unchallenged.
I’m old enough to remember watching Roberto Clemente do this on a regular basis. Growing up in Pittsburgh, listening to Bob Prince on the radio when the bucs weren’t on TV.
Imagine having Two runners in scoring position with two outs, game seven of the World Series, Being down by one run and this happens. I cannot think of a more horrible way to lose a World Series
I can. Game six, you have a 3 games to 2, bottom of the ninth, two outs, winning run on third, a grounder towards first base (easy out) and it went rolling between your legs. It happened in the World Series between the New York Mets and Boston Red Sox and it happened to Red Sox first baseman Bill Buckner at Shea Stadium. The Mets won the World Series that year.
How about bases loaded 1 out you hit a sac fly with a runner on 3rd to tie the game you think, but the outfielder doesn't catch the ball, he keeps slapping the ball up into the air with his glove while running towards the infield, eventually catching the ball near enough to the infield to prevent the runner from tagging up to tie the score, then the next play is a 9-3 put out to end the game.
@@arnoldhenry Not even close. Game seven, a 2-1 lead in the bottom of the 9th, and your ace reliever gives up two singles and a sacrifice fly to blow the save, and you then lose it all in extra innings.
These are all amazing but especially Bautista's 👌. That trap and spin and come up with the ball in slow Mo at the end is absolute poetry in motion. 😭. Melts my face off, doesn't matter that the runner was dumb and didn't run. It gave a chance for that play to even happen. 😅
Happened once to a teammate of mine. He was a lefty and hit a hot shot to the right fielder on a rope. He was literally 2 steps out of the box and the ball was already to the right fielder. It wasn't even close lol
I was out with a concussion so I had to coach first base. A kid on my team did track and claimed to be the fastest player in the league. While I was coaching, he gets thrown out at first by the right fielder. Never felt a bigger FU moment in my life
Questions: 1) What's the frequency of groundball 9-3 putouts? Probably more often than a no-hitter? Maybe roughly the same as a triple play? 2) Has any right fielder ever gotten more than one groundball 9-3 assist in an inning? In a game? 3) What's the record for career groundball 9-3 assists for an outfielder? For a batter hitting into one?
This is a long comment but it might be the most satisfying 9-3 putout ever. During my sophomore year of high school I watched a 9-3 put out in a softball game. It was one of the greatest games I ever watched. We were down 5-0 in the first, tied it 5-5 in the second, then tied 6-6 in the 5th, and pulled ahead 8-6 in the 6th. The lead off batter for the other team in the 7th hit a homerun and the next two batters walked and stole the bases and the two after them stuck out. With two runners in scoring position a girl hit a ball short but it bounced over the right fielder, one of my friends that now plays softball for the college we go to, gets the ball and throws it to first. The girl who hit the ball was hyping up the dugout and their crowd thinking she had the go ahead hit. The second base runner was shushing our crowd and stayed on first. That was until our crowd went crazy and the third out was recorded. This was for the sectional championship. The team we won against were the favorites to win the state championship. Needless to say I know those players were getting yelled at all the way home.
I've always called the 9-3 put out the Vladdy Special because when playing MLB 2k back in the day he was the only player I could pull this off with and could actually do it somewhat regularly with him
This was routine in Ken Griffey Jr.’s Winning Run for the Super NES if you had your outfield playing in. You might be able to pull off an 8-3 putout this way as well.
These are fun, but a video of 9-3 putouts by someone called CubbiesEdits17 should show the one by Andre Dawson, who did it off Wrigley Field grass on 4/29/87, and went 5-for-5, hitting for the cycle. He won NL MVP that season. And speaking of Cubs, interesting in the Schierholtz-Rizzo play at 1:03 that Rizzo can't react fast enough to find the bag and got lucky with the review.
Dan Haren, number 14 of your Dodgers, played one season for your Dodgers. and twice grounded out to RF. Mr. Haren, the pride of Bishop Amat HS, was a very good hitting pitcher and hit .185 for your Dodgers in 2014, but with these two going as hits he would have hit .2222222222222222222222.
I remember 2 years ago my team was in the Cal Ripken World Series (I was 11 or 12). We got in because a nearby town was hosting it and our team won state, so we didn't have to go to Regionals and win. So, it was the last inning, 2 outs, we were down by one. I was on deck and one of the worst players was up to bat. He surprisingly hit a line drive to right field and he trotted slowly to first. You know what happened? A 9-3 putout to win the game. I was so fuckin pissed off because I could've tied the damn game up and kept us in there.
The Seattle Mariners had one where the Left Fielder robbed the hitter of a home run, then came up gunning. The resultant dp was f7/7-4-3. That is an even more uncommon one, the left fielder getting a guy a first, but that is usually when they expected that he would not catch it and turned the corner past second. But a left fielder nailing the hitter at first I believe I have seen once in my life. A high school left fielder was playing shallow, and the ball was hard hit. The left fielder was right on line with the grounder, got a great running start on a perfect line, and the hitter was slow out of the box. The throw was low and hard and right on target. The first baseman stretched three quarters and caught him by less than half a stride. The only time I have ever seen a 7-3. I have seen a few 9-3 plays and a couple of 8-3 plays.
Im a freshmen, on a varsity team. Was facing a D1 pitcher throwing high 80s, my first at bat ever, first game. First pitch i hit a line drive ball right center, halfway through my shoe falls off, i trip, and i get 9 to 3.
I saw this happen in 2010 at Nationals Park. Roy Oswalt lined what looked like a clean single to right and was thrown out at first by Roger Bernadina. Wasn't even a close play as Bernadina was playing in short right. Am surprised that this doesn't happen more often. I have been watching baseball since 1956 and had never before seen that play occur,
Not a baseball fanatic here so i dont know much, but what id so special about these plays? What makes em any different from when other players throw the ball to first base to get the player out?
that should be a standard play against right-handed hitters; right fielder plays closer to first. going to need a right fielder with arm speed, and leg speed to make up the difference; i.e. your best fielder is in right-field. and, I should be managing a team for free.
I mean, yea, that's why IN LITTLE LEAUGE youre taught to run EVERYTHING out like you're beating out a double play, millionaires being incompetent is nothing new, but if I owned or even managed a team your ass would be benched
When I was a kid I threw a guy out at first from fairly deep left field. I was the kid that got picked on, so nobody thought I could do anything right--until that laser beam, that is. :-)
7-3 and 8-3 put outs are something outfielders should give a solid effort because the batter almost always casually rounds first into play. If you rifle it to first it'll catch everyone by surprise. Your coach will even yell at you. And you only hope that first baseman is paying attention
Each position is given a number, 1 through 9. 9 is the right fielder and 3 is first base, so the 9 throws to the 3. It's a really short throw so you have to be pretty lame to get out this way lol
To explain more completely, the positions on the field are numbered: 1 (pitcher), 2 (catcher), 3 (first baseman), 4 (second baseman), 5 (third baseman), 6 (shortstop), 7 (left fielder), 8 (center fielder), 9 (right fielder). It makes keeping a box score easier, because you can write 6-3 to signify that the shortstop fielded a ball and threw to first base for an out -- in other words, it's essentially baseball shorthand. 9-3 then indicates that the right fielder fielded a ball and threw to first base for an out (which rarely happens). Furthermore, any player who makes contact with the ball on a play (they don't have to actually catch it) is listed, as many times and in order of the contact. So a ball hit back at the pitcher that deflects off him to the second baseman, who then throws to first, is written as 1-4-3. Announcers will also, from time to time, call out the numbers when describing a play -- for instance, a double play (typically 6-4-3, 5-4-3, or 4-6-3). In addition, it doesn't matter what spot on the field the player is in, only their numbered position matters. So in defensive shifts where the shortstop is to the right of second base, he's still number 6. If a team implements a 5-man infield by bringing the center fielder in, he's still number 8. So you can get some crazy combinations on putouts that way.
When I was playing in Senior Little League we were playing in the division championship. Last inning. Up by a run. Bases loaded, 2 outs. Me in right field. Batter hits a squibbler to me in right. My dad, our coach, is yelling for me to throw home but I saw the batter lollygagging to first so I fired a strike to first to nail him. We won the game and the series. Most exciting play I've ever done in any sport.
First 9-3 I saw was at Wrigley in 1987 or '88. Andre Dawson charged a liner and gunned the throw to Leon Durham at first for the put-out. What a player.
I actually had two 9-3 put outs for real in one game as a right fielder when I was 16 years old playing in the intermediate league. Instead of the manager praising me in making these plays he told me to play back further. I also made the play on the same batter he was a big guy who obviously was a slow runner and both times he hit one bounce line drives right at me so I fielded the ball pretty quick and both times I saw I had a chance to throw him out at first which I did. I never had a really powerful arm and probably threw it around 60mph but still got the out both times.
JD Drew forced a runner out at home from right field against the Royals in 2009. I'd love to see this play again... haven't seen it since it happened live.
Back when I played centerfield from like 10u-14u I used to always throw out slow runners at first at hard low liners. It was great fun but stopped after one of my coaches told me it was rude so I never did it again.
I threw out a runner at 2nd in a beer league softball game trying to tag up on foul fly ball to right field. They were down 4 runs in a playoff game in the final inning. What a dopey play!
The best thing about this is that the right fielder and first basemen are USUALLY the two worst defenders in baseball. So it’s nice to see them come together to give us these rare plays.
I don't know anything about baseball but wouldn't a left handed hitter create many more opportunities for this kind of play? surely the guy in right field is making sure they're extra ready for a hit to come to them and therefore the guy on first has to be ready for a throw right? or is this more common than I think but they're usually safe instead
A left hander doesn't have to run as far. The 9-3 depends more on how sharply the ball is hit and how quickly the batter can get to first. The 9-3 isn't really rare, uncommon might be a better word.
in Babe Ruth League (13-15 yr olds) I played first base, and Gizard Sowards hit one to center field, and Steve Thornton, got in on the first bounce and fired it to me... 8 - 3 put out... Steve was later an all-state QB
The best part about this video is all of these announcers saying "Base hit to right. Oh, wait."

How will intentionally walking you reduce your defensive threat?

I was so fuckin pissed off because I could've tied the damn game up and kept us in there.
The Seattle Mariners had one where the Left Fielder robbed the hitter of a home run, then came up gunning. The resultant dp was f7/7-4-3. That is an even more uncommon one, the left fielder getting a guy a first, but that is usually when they expected that he would not catch it and turned the corner past second. But a left fielder nailing the hitter at first I believe I have seen once in my life. A high school left fielder was playing shallow, and the ball was hard hit. The left fielder was right on line with the grounder, got a great running start on a perfect line, and the hitter was slow out of the box. The throw was low and hard and right on target. The first baseman stretched three quarters and caught him by less than half a stride. The only time I have ever seen a 7-3. I have seen a few 9-3 plays and a couple of 8-3 plays.
Im a freshmen, on a varsity team. Was facing a D1 pitcher throwing high 80s, my first at bat ever, first game. First pitch i hit a line drive ball right center, halfway through my shoe falls off, i trip, and i get 9 to 3.
We aren't very bright, are we?
Great video. More of this content please 🙏
Now THAT Bautista one to get Butler was the most impressive by far
Billy Butler is probably the slowest runner in the history of the game. Not even joking.
@@majinmexican9833 Kendrys Morales gives him a run (lol) for his money
I saw this happen in 2010 at Nationals Park. Roy Oswalt lined what looked like a clean single to right and was thrown out at first by Roger Bernadina. Wasn't even a close play as Bernadina was playing in short right. Am surprised that this doesn't happen more often. I have been watching baseball since 1956 and had never before seen that play occur,
The last one is why coaches always tell you to run, even if you think the ball is foul.
man o man this is entertaining! ... I love the first baseman looking at the ump with wide eyes.... did we? did we? OUT.
getting tired of the show ads
ads? do you not use Adblocker?
I love how every time the announcer says, “that’s a base hit to right field” and then seconds later take it back.
They should actually make this a thing in MLB The Show 19 lol
You can, I've done it probably 7 or 8 times since I started playing in MLB 15
Juan Pablo Salazar-Ortiz lol
Perfection72. I’ve been playing since MLB The Show 15 too but I never did it
Not a baseball fanatic here so i dont know much, but what id so special about these plays? What makes em any different from when other players throw the ball to first base to get the player out?
that should be a standard play against right-handed hitters; right fielder plays closer to first. going to need a right fielder with arm speed, and leg speed to make up the difference; i.e. your best fielder is in right-field. and, I should be managing a team for free.
Awesome!!! Thanks for the video!!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ ⚾️
I've done this numerous times while playing Triple Play '99 with Raul Mondesi. 😂😂
(His arm...99, speed...90, reaction..99)
I mean, yea, that's why IN LITTLE LEAUGE youre taught to run EVERYTHING out like you're beating out a double play, millionaires being incompetent is nothing new, but if I owned or even managed a team your ass would be benched
How about 7 - 3
Steven Enno 😂😂😂😂
When I was a kid I threw a guy out at first from fairly deep left field. I was the kid that got picked on, so nobody thought I could do anything right--until that laser beam, that is. :-)
these are great. thanks for posting.
turn cc on. at 3:59 the commentator said fuck apparently lol
mitch parizanski he said "oh, buck" as in joe buckp
CC doesn't say anything, but it's clear it's Buck.
No way. He said "rudder peppers."
they are all actually pretty funny "the runner at perv skies"
7-3 and 8-3 put outs are something outfielders should give a solid effort because the batter almost always casually rounds first into play. If you rifle it to first it'll catch everyone by surprise. Your coach will even yell at you. And you only hope that first baseman is paying attention
What does 9-3 mean? Sorry I don't really watch baseball lol
#BalraGhillieSk8r4Lyfe watch the video dumbass
Each position is given a number, 1 through 9. 9 is the right fielder and 3 is first base, so the 9 throws to the 3. It's a really short throw so you have to be pretty lame to get out this way lol
TianoPCGamer don't be an ass.
RF=9 CF=8 LF=7 SS=6 3B=5 2B=4 1B=3 C=2 P=1
Steven Enno Oh ok thanks to everyone who responded
So um... Who's on first?
That missed fly ball to Bautista was amazing.
What is a 9-3 putout
Seamus Noon no idea
Seamus Noon A throw from Rigt field to First base for an out.
Rigt field is 9. First base is 3. Right field threw it to First base for an out so it is a 9-3
Think of a numpad
To explain more completely, the positions on the field are numbered: 1 (pitcher), 2 (catcher), 3 (first baseman), 4 (second baseman), 5 (third baseman), 6 (shortstop), 7 (left fielder), 8 (center fielder), 9 (right fielder). It makes keeping a box score easier, because you can write 6-3 to signify that the shortstop fielded a ball and threw to first base for an out -- in other words, it's essentially baseball shorthand. 9-3 then indicates that the right fielder fielded a ball and threw to first base for an out (which rarely happens).
Furthermore, any player who makes contact with the ball on a play (they don't have to actually catch it) is listed, as many times and in order of the contact. So a ball hit back at the pitcher that deflects off him to the second baseman, who then throws to first, is written as 1-4-3. Announcers will also, from time to time, call out the numbers when describing a play -- for instance, a double play (typically 6-4-3, 5-4-3, or 4-6-3).
In addition, it doesn't matter what spot on the field the player is in, only their numbered position matters. So in defensive shifts where the shortstop is to the right of second base, he's still number 6. If a team implements a 5-man infield by bringing the center fielder in, he's still number 8. So you can get some crazy combinations on putouts that way.
When I was playing in Senior Little League we were playing in the division championship. Last inning. Up by a run. Bases loaded, 2 outs. Me in right field. Batter hits a squibbler to me in right. My dad, our coach, is yelling for me to throw home but I saw the batter lollygagging to first so I fired a strike to first to nail him. We won the game and the series. Most exciting play I've ever done in any sport.
guys hot doggin' it to first gets you smoked at first. always Pete Rose that shit.... always
You get a like for Pete Rose. Charlie Hustle every play, you never know!
First 9-3 I saw was at Wrigley in 1987 or '88. Andre Dawson charged a liner and gunned the throw to Leon Durham at first for the put-out. What a player.
Wow, that 9-3 is so hard, what great Baseball!
When is the Trea turner put out at first ?
I actually had two 9-3 put outs for real in one game as a right fielder when I was 16 years old playing in the intermediate league. Instead of the manager praising me in making these plays he told me to play back further. I also made the play on the same batter he was a big guy who obviously was a slow runner and both times he hit one bounce line drives right at me so I fielded the ball pretty quick and both times I saw I had a chance to throw him out at first which I did. I never had a really powerful arm and probably threw it around 60mph but still got the out both times.
Good coaching.
You should do best outfield teams
Nate Schierholtz is one of the most underrated fielders ever.
JD Drew forced a runner out at home from right field against the Royals in 2009. I'd love to see this play again... haven't seen it since it happened live.
Back when I played centerfield from like 10u-14u I used to always throw out slow runners at first at hard low liners. It was great fun but stopped after one of my coaches told me it was rude so I never did it again.
It was "rude"
Maybe the players should actually hustle to 1st
Maybe the coaches' kid was fat and slow
What was that noise at 3:28?
This has always been my favourite play for some reason. I was often at 1B or RF, and I promise I looked for an opportunity EVERY TIME lol
I watched a 7-5 FO at third during one of my daughter’s softball games. She was the left fielder.
Love to see good fielding!
you just KNOW what the hitter said to the RF as he was jogging off, but the tone of him querying his parentage would be in awe
I threw out a runner at 2nd in a beer league softball game trying to tag up on foul fly ball to right field. They were down 4 runs in a playoff game in the final inning. What a dopey play!
Thank you for this!
The best thing about this is that the right fielder and first basemen are USUALLY the two worst defenders in baseball. So it’s nice to see them come together to give us these rare plays.
OH, these are fun to watch! 😊😊😊
4:32 “oh my god, I have fingers??!”
-really high guy
You let me down. I was expecting to see something funny. Sadly that did not happen.
So are these plays called a hit or a ground out to right field?
A ground out to right field.
How’d ya do at the plate?
I grounded out to the Right Fielder.
“Go to your room and think about it”.
I play right field and did a 9-6-3 double play is that good??
I love that after every play you can see the “damn the boys are gonna roast me” on their face
I don't know anything about baseball but wouldn't a left handed hitter create many more opportunities for this kind of play? surely the guy in right field is making sure they're extra ready for a hit to come to them and therefore the guy on first has to be ready for a throw right? or is this more common than I think but they're usually safe instead
A left hander doesn't have to run as far. The 9-3 depends more on how sharply the ball is hit and how quickly the batter can get to first. The 9-3 isn't really rare, uncommon might be a better word.
Who do you think is better José or Gregory polanco
That was great. Thanks.
in Babe Ruth League (13-15 yr olds) I played first base, and Gizard Sowards hit one to center field, and Steve Thornton, got in on the first bounce and fired it to me... 8 - 3 put out... Steve was later an all-state QB
I don't like Bautista... but I gotta give it up to him for these outstanding plays... he is a game changer.
