He had enough raw ability to still get the ball into the outfield with a not great swing, and enough speed to leg out an infield single.

The point about current integration I believe is not totally fair. Part of the reason is that there's a significant amount of international players, mostly from Latin America. I very much doubt that the mlb leaders are pro-hispanic racists (for context, 30% of the players in MLB are latino, and they represent 18% of the population). Also, as a latino myself, I wish the MLB adopted the census system for the ethnicity classification, where hispanic/latino is not a race question (because hispanic/latino is a cultural marker, not a racial one).
huh? The MLB can, as an institution, have done a *terrible* job integrating black players - while *ALSO* having done a *good* job integrating players from other groups. That isnt contradictory. You can be good in one area and bad in another. It's definitely a fair point to make imo.
@@jord.an6123 I didn't say that they haven't done a terrible job integrating black players, I don't know enough about that.

Id argue that baseball being the skill sport it is, the rising price of being a child baseball player has killed the chances of a lot of super talented black children who's parents couldn't afford for them to play little league. Compared to the basketball or soccer they could play with just a ball. I'd blame it more on capitalism than the MLB, which is weird to think.
@@djtrankilo231 honestly, I just assumed soccer was having success like basketball was getting foreign and disadvantaged players, like the huge growth in Cameroon for basketball with the stars. It's interesting and sad to hear that soccer is having problems with children being able to play.
@sabiebright4554 the problem with MLS is that they grt big names, but all past their primes. They don't focus on the youth like the other leagues do. MLS, MLB and the NHL need to take a page out of the books of the NBA and NFL to develop more interest in their leagues instead of catering mostly to rich families.
This game is what led to the Yankees' road uniform changes this year. Judge liked them, and that started the convo and process to drop the white accents. I kinda wish they went back to the McCauliffe number font too, it's beautiful.

Thank you for uploading this Seth. There was so much I didn’t know about this game prior to the video. What’s sad is just how much the White Sox have fallen in the past three years. They have gone from potential World Series contenders into the worst team in baseball ever in just a short amount of time.
man...ive bben a die hard white sox fan ever since i was a kid. I live and ide with every game and it's hard not to cry watching this after the decline this fanbase has watched since this game
I remember hearing this on the radio at work and loving that moment. It’s too bad Jerry Reinsdorf lets anything good blow away with the wind. Props on the video. You put together a really good one. Now do the 2005 World Series team. ✌🏽
No one cares that Jeremy Lin was essentially ran out of the league cause he was Asian but the minute a black kid picks up a basketball instead of a bat, it's a conspiracy to keep out Black people. 🤔
As a black guy, i feel theres literally a top team in every sport with or made mostly or even only of black players that the whole issue about no black people being in baseball now, is a non issue. These teams have invested into Latin youth, thats enough care taken into diversity for me
I find it funny that the same ones calling these teams and businesses racist also call them greedy capitalist pigs who only care about money. Those both can't be true at the same time. If all they care about is money and winning brings in money, then they would put the best available talent on the field regardless of these made up classifications these bored morons like to assign to others....which is what they do.
Couldn't have been any better if you'd scripted the game. And... The 2008 National Championship. Kansas vs. Memphis. Mario's Miracle deserves a Deep Rewind.
Making this a race video was very unexpected. I love the history and showing that Tim Anderson got to wear a jersey so many black players were wrongly not allowed to wear. But putting blame on MLB for not having more black players is wild. The NFL is over 50% black and the NBA is around 80% black (depending on year). It statistically seems to be that black athletes typically pick other sports down the road. Even Anderson, the highlighted player in this very video, picked baseball over basketball later in his athletic career. I'm not angry about the statement or anything. I just get tired of people saying one thing to make something seem racist or not fair. Clearly the best baseball players get to the MLB. It's not about race.
Tim Anderson also picked Baseball over Basketball solely because of one factor: He is 6'2" and he thought that would mean he would never have an NBA career. He didn't do it because of some deep love for the game of Baseball.
idrk where to put this but i’ve got a great idea for weird rules that also rags on the NFL as the show usually does😂 In 1989 the NFL passed a rule that penalized home teams if the crowd got to loud and the rule was implemented in Indianapolis, there’s plenty of footage and interviews from the game
You can't just compare 2 numbers and say "racism" without actually presenting evidence that racism caused the change in numbers. Maybe the black athletes that would be good at baseball are choosing basketball and football instead because those sports have grown in popularity since 1979 and baseball has declined in popularity since 1979
Yeah. And that’s partially on the MLB for not investing in the community of the sport. You think youth players these days are choosing football and basketball randomly? No. The NBA and NFL pour tons of resources and time into appealing to young people. Both to get them to play the sport and too watch it. The MLB has comparatively done a much worse job of that.
Ever notice how they dont ever talk about the race percentage in basketball? You want to know how to elininate racism? Quit talking about it!! Look at character not ethnicity. Damn!
Rewinder ideas: 2022 World Cup Final Super Bowl LVIII 2023 World Series Game 1 - Adolis Garcia walkoff Super Bowl LII Kevin Durant’s toe 2005 Steelers-Colts 2006 AFC Championship Super Bowl XXXII Any other ideas?
Rewinder Suggestions: Ending to the Jacksonville State-Florida State game in 2021 Ending to the Miami-Duke game in 2015 Ending to the Central Michigan-Oklahoma State game in 2016
It’s incredible. Somehow, at the 9 minute mark, secretbase made me finally, somehow, dislike a video of theirs and not have me share it in my group chats. Somehow, this incredible moment was made about race. You actually have to try to make this moment in sports about race. Unreal. I just wanted to watch a baseball video.
This took quite a weird turn. The sport's two biggest stars are Japanese and biracial and the MLB is made up of around 30% Hispanic players, so to imply there's some agenda against minorities is pretty ridiculous. No one is turning down talent because of color, background, or even planet if it came to that. There's a lot of social factors that play into a sport's ethnic composition and in this case I don't think it has much if anything to do with baseball's "lack of outreach". It's just not as relevant culturally anymore and many kids just grow up wanting to be basketball and football players, so instead of feigning some infantilizing concern that some "sad" or "shameful" gatekeeping is preventing black athletes from playing baseball we should be celebrating the fact that they are exercising their own agency and choosing to play the sports they prefer.
Not mentioned here is the pitcher he hit the HR off of, Britton, NEVER allows fly balls let alone HRs. I remember watching that thinking we were about to see a game ending DP
I haven't seen Field of Dreams to see if it mentioned this, but I did note at the Negro Leagues Museum that the White Sox owner at the time the Negro Leagues were founded was basically the biggest pro-segregation voice in the MLB.
Not to mention that in the timeline Secret base chose(1986) if you look at the Latino players it was down at like 12% and now it’s closer to 27%. But the game still isn’t represented… ok sure
Is he trying to imply that MLB has no diversity or something? Because if so that’s completely false and he knows it. Yes there are a lot of white guys in baseball but there’s also TONS of Hispanic players, Asian players and many others. Literally the best player in the league in Asian. MLB is probably the most diverse league in sports maybe behind the NBA.
Dude needs to realize that baseball is getting less popular here in the US. Baseball started to strongly prefer pay-to-play and black youth would rather play NFL or NBA over MLB
Good video. But making Tim Anderson look like he’s some kinda angel is a far reach. I don’t care if he enjoys the game, flips his bat or whatever…as long as he’s respectful to the other team. He’s shown signs before that he sometimes isn’t respectful. Also the reason black players (as in from America) are underrepresented in baseball is not because the sport is “racist” or “stodgy”. One reason of the many reasons is because young black men can make more money in basketball and football in a short amount of time and not have to go through the minor league circuits. This “everything is because of racism” stuff is getting old. And I’m brown, by the way.
I loved the section where you talked about baseballs racist past and connected that to how MLB doesn’t do enough to market baseball to young black kids. it was so true and really made the ending hit rly hard
@@MushiePuppet17 No... it doesn't. If plays the money angle. These teams would have a gay multigendered athiest mixed race space creature playing 3B if it gave them the best chance to win.... because winning means what? $$$
@@MushiePuppet17but only one way right? Why have we never heard complaints about the NBA having too many black players and not enough players from other races?
@GarrettCates Because the NBA has never had discriminatory segregation rules that *favored* Black or non-white players. Black players dominate the NBA in _spite_ of past discrimination, not due to it. It only goes "one way" because they aren't equivalent.
What a time to post this video. Showing what potential the White Sox had just as they’re about to have the worst record in modern baseball history.

@@user-go3rc3fy4i He was horrid before that, tbf
Tim Anderson’s profile as a hitter basically always walked the razor’s edge of viability: he chased a lot, didn’t walk, and didn’t make particularly hard contact or hit a ton of line drives. He had enough raw ability to still get the ball into the outfield with a not great swing, and enough speed to leg out an infield single.

Maybe the black athletes that would be good at baseball are choosing basketball and football instead because those sports have grown in popularity since 1979 and baseball has declined in popularity since 1979
Yeah. And that’s partially on the MLB for not investing in the community of the sport. You think youth players these days are choosing football and basketball randomly? No. The NBA and NFL pour tons of resources and time into appealing to young people. Both to get them to play the sport and too watch it. The MLB has comparatively done a much worse job of that.
Ever notice how they dont ever talk about the race percentage in basketball? You want to know how to elininate racism? Quit talking about it!! Look at character not ethnicity. Damn!
Rewinder ideas:
2022 World Cup Final
Super Bowl LVIII
2023 World Series Game 1 - Adolis Garcia walkoff
Super Bowl LII
Kevin Durant’s toe
2005 Steelers-Colts
2006 AFC Championship
Super Bowl XXXII
Any other ideas?
They already did 28- 3

Bro the fact that Secret Base hasn't made a rewinder about Damian Lillard's Game winner Against OKC Thunder is Absurd man
It's probably racism.... according to their own logic anyway
Rewinder Suggestions:
Ending to the Jacksonville State-Florida State game in 2021
Ending to the Miami-Duke game in 2015
Ending to the Central Michigan-Oklahoma State game in 2016
This game was really good like REALLY good
GOD I NEED A HISTORY OF THE CHICAGO WHITE SOX PLEASE.
Scott Spiezio’s game 6 3HR needs a deep rewind
The highlight of the white sox rebuild
It’s incredible. Somehow, at the 9 minute mark, secretbase made me finally, somehow, dislike a video of theirs and not have me share it in my group chats. Somehow, this incredible moment was made about race. You actually have to try to make this moment in sports about race. Unreal. I just wanted to watch a baseball video.
Facts. I don’t think race was on anyone’s mind at this moment.
This took quite a weird turn. The sport's two biggest stars are Japanese and biracial and the MLB is made up of around 30% Hispanic players, so to imply there's some agenda against minorities is pretty ridiculous. No one is turning down talent because of color, background, or even planet if it came to that. There's a lot of social factors that play into a sport's ethnic composition and in this case I don't think it has much if anything to do with baseball's "lack of outreach". It's just not as relevant culturally anymore and many kids just grow up wanting to be basketball and football players, so instead of feigning some infantilizing concern that some "sad" or "shameful" gatekeeping is preventing black athletes from playing baseball we should be celebrating the fact that they are exercising their own agency and choosing to play the sports they prefer.
I LOVE FIELD OF DREAMS AND KEVIN COSTNER
Shoutout to UA-cam premium. Don’t have to hear the T-Mobile uhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuh ad anymore
You should do a Rewinder on the 1996 Olympics Women's Gymnastics Team Finals.
Crazy how fast this team fell apart.
Not mentioned here is the pitcher he hit the HR off of, Britton, NEVER allows fly balls let alone HRs. I remember watching that thinking we were about to see a game ending DP
I haven't seen Field of Dreams to see if it mentioned this, but I did note at the Negro Leagues Museum that the White Sox owner at the time the Negro Leagues were founded was basically the biggest pro-segregation voice in the MLB.
They could never make me hate you, Tim Anderson
You could make a collapse video of the 2021 White Sox with what happened next- SCRATCH THAT The 2005 White Sox collapse is the real juice
Since you're rewinding stuff from 2021 now can y'all do Kelee Ringo's championship-sealing pick six?
Not to mention that in the timeline Secret base chose(1986) if you look at the Latino players it was down at like 12% and now it’s closer to 27%. But the game still isn’t represented… ok sure
Is he trying to imply that MLB has no diversity or something? Because if so that’s completely false and he knows it.
Yes there are a lot of white guys in baseball but there’s also TONS of Hispanic players, Asian players and many others. Literally the best player in the league in Asian. MLB is probably the most diverse league in sports maybe behind the NBA.
How can you possible be this stupid?
Agreed
Dude needs to realize that baseball is getting less popular here in the US. Baseball started to strongly prefer pay-to-play and black youth would rather play NFL or NBA over MLB
This channel has fallen off massively. They're clearly taking DEI money because there was literally no reason to make this story racial whatsoever.
Perfect rollercoaster ride for everyone except us Yankee fans
Good video.
But making Tim Anderson look like he’s some kinda angel is a far reach. I don’t care if he enjoys the game, flips his bat or whatever…as long as he’s respectful to the other team.
He’s shown signs before that he sometimes isn’t respectful.
Also the reason black players (as in from America) are underrepresented in baseball is not because the sport is “racist” or “stodgy”.
One reason of the many reasons is because young black men can make more money in basketball and football in a short amount of time and not have to go through the minor league circuits.
This “everything is because of racism” stuff is getting old.
And I’m brown, by the way.
You had your shot at the Presidency, Vivek. The country doesn't want you. Pipe down.
I loved the section where you talked about baseballs racist past and connected that to how MLB doesn’t do enough to market baseball to young black kids. it was so true and really made the ending hit rly hard
Except it is absurd and ridiculous in every way... other than that I agree with you
DOWN GOES ANDERSEN
U disappoint me playing the race angle.
Real life plays the race angle, why are you trying to stick your head in the sand about it?
@@MushiePuppet17 No... it doesn't. If plays the money angle. These teams would have a gay multigendered athiest mixed race space creature playing 3B if it gave them the best chance to win.... because winning means what? $$$
@@MushiePuppet17but only one way right? Why have we never heard complaints about the NBA having too many black players and not enough players from other races?
@GarrettCates Because the NBA has never had discriminatory segregation rules that *favored* Black or non-white players. Black players dominate the NBA in _spite_ of past discrimination, not due to it. It only goes "one way" because they aren't equivalent.
@@MushiePuppet17 wow, the mental gymnastics are astounding. 10 out of 10 on the mental gymnastics!
Man I work at the white Sox stadium my fifth season this yr. It’s crazy how empty the stadium is this yr smh
Clemson breaking the 0-59 streak in Chapel Hill deserves a rewind.
