    as a kid growing up whenever Doc took the mound it felt like he threw a complete game every time. RIP

    Growing up, you think that professional athletes are these mythological figures who are indestructible, and Doc's passing was the first one that really hit hard. Can remember exactly where I was when I heard and remember starting at the TV for about an hour straight in complete disbelief, waiting and hoping for the reports to be wrong. One of my favorite pitchers of all time

    Roy Halladay was the reason I started playing/got into baseball. You knew when the Doc was on the mound it was gonna be a dominant performance. As a Blue Jays fan, he will always be a legend up North. While I wasn’t even alive for the beginning of his career, his story of adversity makes me appreciate his career and how lucky we were as baseball fans to have witnessed someone as special as the Doc. Rip Roy🙏🏻

      I started watching baseball as a Yankee's fan. But living in Niagara, in Canada, I got all the Jays games on TV. It didn't take long for Roy to turn me into a die hard Jays fan.

    Halladay is my fav pitcher of all-time. I was a Blue Jay (in little league lol) so I followed them as a 4th grader. As a fellow NY stater and Mets fan, it was always a pleasure to watch him pitch in our division as well. Heartbroken by his passing, but always nice to look back at his achievements and life. I was happy he got a video game cover spot in the late 2000s as well. Great guy

  • @baboblocksberg7531

    Halladay became my favorite player after being traded to the Phillies for his pitching alone. I was so fascinated by his dominance and completely focused demeanor, especially since I couldn't keep my cool on the mound myself. I even painted a picture of him on my wall in my first own apartment. Little did I know that he struggled with anxiety and addiction. Interestingly I struggled with similar problems during the one year I had him painted on my wall. Nonetheless he was one of the most inspiring people to me. When I found out about his issues after his passing I wasn't really suprised at all. Somehow I felt like I knew it all along and it seemed really fitting to his behavior. Growing up in Germany, playing baseball, there weren't a lot of rolemodels that shared the same passion. And so nowadays I feel more connected with this man I have never met, than ever before.

    • @legalizeweed3830
      @legalizeweed3830 2 роки тому +1

      I was so upset when he got traded from the Jays. But I'm happy that he got to pitch in important games in Philly. Also glad NL fans got a chance to see just how special he was.

    Halladay was one of my favorite pitchers to watch as a kid. I always feel like he was crazy underrated. His passing was one of the first athlete ones that hit me hard. And since his it has kept happening. I’m glad to see a video about him from you Jolly. Even when he was on the Phillies I’d root for the guy.

    • @unkledoda420
      @unkledoda420 Рік тому

      He was easily considered one of the top few, if not the best pitcher in MLB for a large portion of his career. Roy was a lot of things but underrated definitely wasn't one of them.

    Doc was my first favorite player ever!!! He is the reason why pitchers are my favorite players in the game. I remember I was so excited to see him play in the 2011 NLDS game 1 and he got rocked for 3 runs in the first inning and I was really sad, and then he just casually retired 24 in a row en route to winning the game. Then the epic duel vs Carpenter in game 5 broke my heart! He pitched great but lost 1-0. Doc's jersey was my first ever!!! Thank you for the video

    • @legalizeweed3830

      The first innings were teams only chance at getting a couple of runs off him. After that he was always locked in.

    The best pitcher I've ever seen. I remember him throwing a complete game in Tampa Bay, and he only needed 69 pitches. Or when he threw 10 innings and beat the Tigers. Roy is a legend!!

    Great work as always man. Halladay was one of my favorite players growing up; I always used to pitch with him whenever I would play MLB The Show with my friends after school, and I still remember watching his playoff no-hitter on TV. Now, as an adult who has dealt with massive expectations, anxiety, and depression, I have a whole new respect for the man that he was and what he was able to accomplish. RIP to a true legend.

    I can still remember how high Doc looked in late 2012-2013 season. By 2013, he was pale as a ghost and sweated profusely. Sweat would steadily drip off the bill of his cap. I knew he was high on pain pills or something. Very unfortunate situation. But I will say, I saw him pitch 8 innings at Citi field in August 2010. I’m almost positive he only allowed 2 hits and 0 runs. He was special. Cutter sinker combo was literally scripture on pitching.

    Heya - good work on the vids for the most part and good luck in the future. May I make a serious suggestion though?
    When you do your talking head bits, consider not making an edit after each sentence. I think this style of editing works well for comedy but otherwise it is a little jarring and annoying and unnecessary. Giraffe Neck Mark is addicted to this style of editing and it’s exactly why I never watch him, despite him likely having worthwhile things to say about baseball. When you apply this style to somber subject matter like the Roy Halladay piece, I find it makes you look like you’re not actually invested in what you are saying about him.
    Now all this comes from someone who is likely twice your age and it may be just me being an old Fuddy-Duddy, but I would advise that you ask around to see if people in general find this an off-putting editing style.
    Be well.
