he told himself that if he ever allowed more runs in the playoffs than men we had walk on the moon he would learn a new pitch but he never allowed 12 runs so he just stuck with that pitch
My hero is Nolan Ryan, so I'm all about the starters who are their own closers (a dead or dying breed), but come on, Mariano Rivera? Mad respect. Legend.
Greatest walk out song in MLB history and that's coming from a die hard red sox fan. Loved watching Rivera come in to Metallica every time he touched the rubber. Such an iconic player
Don't forget Trevor Hoffman with for whom the bell tolls either. In the 90s if it was the 9th and you heard Metallica. You heard boss music and were probably fucked.
Not an everyday player, Who cares the single most valuable player during that whole 90’s Yankee run hands down!! U ask any smart baseball player back then if they could have 1 of our players they all pick Mo. not saying he was the best player in any sport in his era but I don’t think it can be disputed that he was statistically the most successful, he did his job better than anyone in any other sport did theirs
I’d have to say Tiger is a great retort to that statement. Much respect to Mo but at max he needed to get 5 outs in an outing. Tiger has to do that 4 days in a row, especially on Sunday and with millions on the line for every put.
@@oscarmoreno972 Mariano pitched more than 5 outs many times especially in post season. In 2003 ALCS game 7, he pitched 9 outs for the win. With game tied at 5, he pitched the 9th, 10th, and 11th innings. It was also an elimination game.
Hands down the best closer and the best lefty in my opinion to touch a baseball… crediting all hof’s but nobody touches Mariano’s jock strap! Coming from a Sox fan
Anyone in the building could tell you that cutter was the ONLY pitch he was going to throw. They could even tell you where exactly he was going to throw it and you STILL couldn't hit it!
Simon & Garfunkel should make an updated version of Mrs Robinson with the line "where have you gone Mo Rivera, Yankee fans turn their desperate hopes to you, woo woo woo" Best Evah.
Would destroy the hitters these days too. It really is unbelievable. Some of those older players even compared to now I feel were just great, Griffey, R.Johnson etc.
I can say I have seen the greatest closer in mo The greatest running back Barry The Greatest defensive player Taylor And the Greatest basketball player Jordan Nobody is in the same room or level !!!!
Years ago I worked with a guy who was convinced he could hit Rivera. I LOL and informed him that there were guys getting paid millions to play MLB who couldn't hit him. I told him Mariano could give you 10 pitches and you would whiff on all of them. He replied I'd make contact. I replied highly doubtful.
@@joedepalo419 OK as a Yankees fan I get it, Chapman tends to blow games in the biggest moments (cheaters)... But his stats are still unreal. Possibly 2nd best closer ofc behind mo
Once you hear Enter Sandman, the game is over. - A wise man
Not on September 19 2009
It really is incredible, I think every pitch thrown in these highlights were cutters, and they were all untouchable
He didn't even have another pitch. Only the cutter. It's all he needed
You can bang all the trash cans, buzz all the buzzers, whistle, all to let batters know the cutter is coming. You still ain't hitting it.
@@shappah221 he had a 4 seamer and a slider too I thought
@@RustyisGreat5 4 seam=harder cutter with less break, slider=slower cutter. All it is is change of speed, but it's technically the same pitch
he told himself that if he ever allowed more runs in the playoffs than men we had walk on the moon he would learn a new pitch but he never allowed 12 runs so he just stuck with that pitch
Greatest Baseball Player of ALL TIME. I miss watching 42 & 2 on the field.
Simply the best closer ever!!!!!
As a Red Sox fan I obviously hate the Yankees, however when it comes to Mo I have a the utmost respect for the GOAT of closers.
What about Jeter, Williams, & Paul O’Neil
Same here.As a sox fan the one yankee i respect the most.jeter for his work ethic
My hero is Nolan Ryan, so I'm all about the starters who are their own closers (a dead or dying breed), but come on, Mariano Rivera? Mad respect. Legend.
As a Sox fan fuck jeter, all respect for Mo tho
The current Sox Suck so there is purpose for me to watch this
He's respected as a legend by basically every baseball fan.
A cutter so good that if he faced the 2017 Astros with their trash can banging, they couldn't even beat him.
Yeah because I think they only banged for offspeed I think.
He retired in 2013
@@bigtone7824 I know. And?
The Trashstros wouldn't have a prayer against Rivera.
Haha, they wouldn't need trash cans - because they know it's a cutter coming.
Knowing what's coming is one thing. Being able to hit it is another.
I love this guy. Hes my favorite MLB player of all time.
Greatest walk out song in MLB history and that's coming from a die hard red sox fan. Loved watching Rivera come in to Metallica every time he touched the rubber. Such an iconic player
When you hear this song you know it's over
Coming from a die hard Phillies fan. You have to respect Mariano! Absolute legend
Before Edwin Diaz's trumpets we had The Sandman 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yes we did, YES WE DID. Damn I miss Rivera. Greatest Reliever of all time
Yea this is the best all time
This song will always be better
Don't forget Trevor Hoffman with for whom the bell tolls either. In the 90s if it was the 9th and you heard Metallica. You heard boss music and were probably fucked.
Damn right those trumpets are corny asf
So fortunate to have witnessed what may be the best closer ever.
The Goat / Sandman !!!
Childhood Yankee hero right there
The most fitting entrance music for a baseball player ever
Enter sandman for The Sandman Mariano Rivera
I'm surprised this is still up for copyright. This is so well done, good stuff!
Because even Metallica knows you give Mariano a pass 😂
I’m so lucky to have seen the core 4 at Yankee Stadium!
I miss Mo!!
So incredible!!
got chills watching this
Absolute goosebumps
really well done on this video, the editing definitely adds to it
The one pitcher no one wanted to face in a close game in late inning’s
My most favorite Yankee ever. He superseded Bucky, Lou, and Rick. 🙌🏽
This video is perfect thank you for making it.
This is epic
Not an everyday player,

Being a closer is a nerve-wracking position which Mariano Rivera handled throughout his playing career.
Literally the only Yankee you can't hate
The greatest ever
If you listen closely you can still hear bats weep
As a life long and die hard Reds fan, Mo is the only non-Reds jersey I have ever owned. The GOAT.
He was incredible.Even more reason to love what the diamondbacks did to the Yankees in 2001.
Love seeing jeter too came for mariano started missing jeter too 🥲
FANTASTIC VIDEO, AMEN
Hands down the best closer and the best lefty in my opinion to touch a baseball… crediting all hof’s but nobody touches Mariano’s jock strap! Coming from a Sox fan
The Best the game has ever seen.
Greatest relief pitcher of all time
The Best!!
Anyone in the building could tell you that cutter was the ONLY pitch he was going to throw. They could even tell you where exactly he was going to throw it and you STILL couldn't hit it!
My gf jokingly said “is that the Tiger Woods of baseball?” She was unknowingly correct.
One pitch...dominant. Unreal.
Absolutely despise the Yankees Red Sox fan this is one of the coolest walkouts in MLB history
Ima Mets fan and this is the best closer entrance of all time
This song is better than narco
@@Frankieefootballmundial yes I agree
I love what Rivera did
I remember watching his last game live
Simon & Garfunkel should make an updated version of Mrs Robinson with the line "where have you gone Mo Rivera, Yankee fans turn their desperate hopes to you, woo woo woo"
Best Evah.
He was lights out against everyone and anyone not named Luis Gonzalez or David Ortiz
🐐
If the Yankees are the "Evil Empire" the Mo was Darth Vader! I am a lifelong Yankee fan and #42 was the best closer I have ever seen!
Love it
This is just an AMV for boomers and I love it.
The game is over while you here the song.
G.O.A.T.
THE CLOSER......
Exit sandman
2:58 Diaz smiles
No me cae bien por no reconocer sus raíces pero fue una leyenda eso no se niega
He had 1 pitch everyone knew it was coming no one could touch it that's how nasty his cutter was
I throw a cutter. Ya what else do you use to get batters out.. What do you mean? I dont get the question.
I throw a cutter. I dont need anything else.
Would destroy the hitters these days too. It really is unbelievable. Some of those older players even compared to now I feel were just great, Griffey, R.Johnson etc.
I can say I have seen the greatest closer in mo
The greatest running back Barry
The Greatest defensive player Taylor
And the Greatest basketball player Jordan
Nobody is in the same room or level !!!!
NUMBER 42
The Trumpets for Diaz
Enter Sandman for Rivera.
These are the two songs of NY baseball
Absolutely not what are you smoking everyone feared this song playing in the Bronx nobody is afraid of that trumpet in queens
I was at this game
For those who dislike, they should be another sport fans.
Smfh
Who else came here after watching a TikTok about a 2023 Back to the Future remake? 🤚🏻
A tas loco, ese es MO, de la tierra del Bollo y el Chicheme pues 🇵🇦 y en la batería mi pasiero Lars Ulrich
The greatest closer ever, unanimous hall of famer. Sorry Dodger fans 😂
there can be only one
2:11 made me laugh so hard
Wasn’t the biggest Rivera fan. But, I became a Metallica fan thanks to his entrance song! #Exitlight #Enternight #Offtoneverneverland
#EnterSandman
This is my pastor
Edgar Martinez
Automatic win every time he was called in, lots of fun to know you already won 😂
Years ago I worked with a guy who was convinced he could hit Rivera. I LOL and informed him that there were guys getting paid millions to play MLB who couldn't hit him.

Who’s better Rivera or Diaz
mo tf
@@urdad8 exactly
@@idekanymore11 diaz is actually mid asf if u think abt it
I hated Rivera for one reason. I wanted him in the Old English D. True definition of "GOAT".
Trevor who?
Yankees win !
2:10 3:28
Batting averages going off in to Never Neverland...
I'm not a Yankee fan, and the only reason I even like Mo is because of this song.
Way better than that trumpet playing mo over in queens.....
Chapman is not close
Don't even mention "Chappy" in the same paragraph as Mo. Sacrilege.
@@joedepalo419 Your right about dat brother
@@joedepalo419 OK as a Yankees fan I get it, Chapman tends to blow games in the biggest moments (cheaters)... But his stats are still unreal. Possibly 2nd best closer ofc behind mo
@@danieloppenheimer6243 Sparky Lyle? Goose Gossage? I'd rather have either one in a big spot over Chappy.
@@joedepalo419 Same, those guys are super reliable in the clutch, unlike chapman. But chapman is (in my opinion) is better overall.
Honestly the hardest walk out song easily! F Diaz and his stupid little trumpet
Dude don’t even like this song and doesn’t listen to Metallica ever. I guess no one ever bothered to ask his opinion. Shit is hilarious.
Baseball highlights kinda suck
