I was literally crushed on the day they announced he died. Dave Niehaus was simply put the greatest announcer in the history of the game. He brought so much joy to all the listeners in greater Seattle-Tacoma. It's just like losing a family member cause he was always in your living room, your car, wherever when listening. RIP Dave and Thank You!
If the M's make it and Win it all, it should be for Dave Niehaus. Listening to his disappointment all those years the M's failed told me just how much his heart was into it. Absolutely Love that Man. Rick Rizz too. If it was up to me, Rick Rizz would do the simulcast for TV and radio.Not a big fan of Sims.
@@blackmamba1261 Yeah, it was a shame to win 116 games in 2001 and fall 2 games short of reaching the World Series. I hope the Mariners, if they do win a World Series, that it's on their 1st try and it's a sweep.
I can only imagine Dave Niehaus will be smiling from ear to ear in heaven when the Mariners finally win there first world series R.I.P to one of the greatest commentators to ever live mariner and baseball fans alike will never forget you and your love for the game
I just hope that if they do win it, that it's on the 1st try and it's a sweep. That way, they can claim to have won every World Series game they played.
Listening to this put a smile on my face. When I was a child, I used to listen to Mariners games on my clock radio and I would fall asleep to the voices of Dave Niehaus and Rick Rizzs. Niehaus is an icon, a legend, THE BEST!!!
One of the only times I've seen my dad cry was the memorial tribute at spring training the year that Dave passed away. 75 year old war veteran, retired cop, hard as woodpecker lips. Shows you the impact that Dave had. Rest in peace, sir.
Can't watch this without shedding a few tears. Some of the best calls in sports history. A World Series would be amazing but they have an long line of amazing moments.
@Harry Engel Segura, Cano, Cruz, Paxton and Diaz and a couple of others like Zunino and Herrmann were all winning games for the M's. What does Dipoto do? *TRADE THEM!!!!!* No team can expect to fill seats while sending top talent elsewhere. Don't even get me started about the two stupid trades this season of two of their most productive hitters, setting home run milestones as M's. (Incarnación and Bruce)
@Harry Engel Sadly, that's exactly what he trying to do. This attitude of playing to win by playing to lose is very disturbing. The M's, Reds, and at least two other teams are on track for greater than 100 losses. Just because the Astros were successful in doing so doesn't guarantee any other team will, and you still need to have good players to sell tickets to pay for those alleged cheaper players. down the road. Dipoto was giving money in addition to those big name players traded, too, which makes no fiscal sense whatsoever.
@@elouise5593 Guessing this person was talking about when Edgar Martinez and Tino Martinez both played for us. But they weren't brothers and they weren't related.
I think I've seen this 3 times over the past few years and every time I have to fight back tears. Hearing Dave on the call during such iconic moments in Mariners history really stirs up the emotions. What a day it will be when the Mariners break the slump and get back to the playoffs. What a day it will be when they finally finish what they started in 2001 and bring home a World Series title.
I miss you Dave.. I hope you are resting in peace my man. You were the all time greatest announcer ever to be. Thank you for all that you did. RIP Dave
Me too, the amount of raw emotion Niehaus brings across and the joy of the players celebrating just gets me. Love commentators like Niehaus and our Buck Martinez!
God I fucking miss Dave. My heart breaks because the fact that he won't get to call the game whenever the M's win their first world series. But I know he'll be there!
The Double. Yes, Dave. That was easily #1. I was there, and it was magic. Absolute magic. As we were all losing our minds, celebrating the historic victory we just watched, it was as if there was a slight pause from a large portion of the crowd. Then, the spotlight shone on the broadcast booth. I, along with thousands and thousands, erupted with every bit of volume and energy I had!! I think the resulting eruption was nearly as loud as when Griffey crossed the plate. It was later, that I heard the call. My God. That was incredible. I was floored. And even all these years later, and after hearing it many times, I still get chills and moist eyes, when I hear “…I DON’T BELIEVE IT!!”. Because that is exactly what I was yelling. In the Centerfield bleachers…. Thank you Dave. Rest In Peace.
what a baseball voice. just legendary. just miss him calling games. couldn't ask for anyone better to fill in dave's shoes with rick rizz. cause rizz will be legendary himself. M's may not have been to WS but M's are blessed with 2 legendary announcers calling the games.
From a Mets fan to Mariners fans, few announcers hold a special place in my heart next to the Mets booth (Gary, Keith & Ron, and of course the great Ralph Kiner) the way Dave Niehaus does. "MY OH MY!" just an amazingly effective and passionate announcer. More booths today should have guys like Niehaus.
Gotta respect the man for knowing he has to bare hand it in order to get the delivery to first in time to save the no-hitter! Bosio owed him at least one beer for that one!
I was a big Mariners fan from about 96 to 2003. This man loved baseball and I know he loved Mariners. Some guy I can hear its just a job to them. He was a fan of the team. One of the all-time greats.
I was too young before 96 and during high school I started watching NBA more. Plus after they won 116 games and didn't beat the Yankees I gave up. I figured they would never win it if they couldn't do it that year.
I was at the AL West Tie breaker game against the Angels #4, kept the historic ticket stub and got it signed by Ken Griffey, Dan Wilson and Joey Cora at spring training the following year. Still remember the vibes like it was yesterday. Dave Niehaus will always be a legend!
Dave Niehaus and Rick Rizz, I owe these guys for there great descriptions that made me absolutely Love this game where before I hated it. In the Tri-Cities back in the 80s we only had the M's on the radio but I always found a way to listen. Baseball is a great radio sport!
The Double was great, fantastic, all the wheels in motion. Probably the biggest Yankee breaker was Edgar hitting the Grand Salami, after his 3-run home run earlier. M's traded Randy, some folks said he was beyond his prime. Niehaus never said that. Randy goes on to win 3 Cy Young awards, WS MVP, and a perfect game with Arizona. Junior leaves, A-Rod leaves, Ichiro leaves. No wonder they never made the WS. Still, great memories. So many games listened to in my car traveling across Montana and Idaho.
Born in Seattle and grew up on late 90s Ms. And no one could make baseball into a story like Dave N. I remember hearing his voice in my head playing in little league through college, especially getting a clutch hit. Wish Dave and others like Vin Scully would be on MLB The Show video game as an add on, so future generations could feel the Magic. Kudos to the Mariners new Dave, Dave Sims another amazing broadcaster that I love listening to.
I will always miss Dave. Him, Rick and Ron broadcasting Mariner's games over my portable panasonic radio while I fly fished off Waverley dock in Kirkland, Wa. Miss you Dave.
So many incredible accomplishments by one of the younger MLB franchises, surprised they've never reached a world series with players like Ken Griffey, Randy Johnson, and Ichiro.
Listen to the song called, "My Oh My" by Macklemore. You can see the music video here on TH-cam. It's all about growing up listening to Niehaus and the M's.
It's so hard watching something like this! Seeing the most wonderful moments in Mariner history and yet knowing I'll prob never get to go to Safeco owing to the fact I live in England :( Still, video's like this remind me just why I'm an M's fan!!! :)
@@elouise5593 Fell in love with Seattle when I watched American Football for the 1st time aged 8, so I started following all the teams of Seattle. Then I fell in love with baseball as a sport!
Had Edgar not driven in Junior with the Double, ARod would've had a chance to be the hero. In hindsight I'm so glad they sent Junior and avoided an ARod crowning moment.
I can imagine Dave calling Cal’s home run and Mariners’ playoff clinch in heaven: There’s a drive, deep down right field by the foul pole, THE MARINERS ARE ON THEIR WAY TO THE 2022 POSTSEASON, A BEAUTIFUL HOME RUN BY CAL RALEIGH. THE MARINERS END THE 21 YEAR DROUGHT, MY OH MY!!

He did see it. We just weren't able to see his reaction to it or hear his call.

Deadly From Distance This video was made in 2010 his perfect game was in 2012
Deadly From Distance Im sorry for my first comment I didn't know that Dave Niehaus was dead
Wow we struck out A-Rod to win number 116. That must have felt good.
Also very ironic.
I miss the good 'ole days when they threw play money from the second/3rd levels when he came to bat.

This was a great list, but I admit I only watched this vid to hear Dave's voice again. There will never be another like him.

It still brings tears to my eyes to hear Dave Niehaus calling the plays in Seattle. Rest in Peace Dave 😢
As far as I’m concerned, there will never be a greater commentator. He brought the game to life like no other.
Can't watch this without shedding a few tears. Some of the best calls in sports history. A World Series would be amazing but they have an long line of amazing moments.
@Harry Engel Not until we get a competent GM in the front office. Dipoto ain't it. Wonder if we can lure Theo Epstein out this way?

@Harry Engel Dipoto might as well complete The Great Seattle Fire Sale by trading Haniger, Seager, Leake and Hernández.

We will all never see the Mariners win a World Series.
Bulls*#t, we will see an M's world series championship sooner rather than later.
If someone on M's Radio doesn't sat My oh My when we win it all, someone's gonna get hurt.
ThatVintageGamer I never thought about it but yeah that needs to happen haha
And the 0-1 pitch to Edgar Martinez..
*SWUNG LEBLEGHJDHDJF LEFT FIELD LINE BASE HIT!* hahahah Dave was the best. So much emotion for the Ms
I miss that dream team. Buhners crazy batting style, Griffey, the Martinez brothers, Randy.... damn
Martinez brothers? There was only one, and his name was Edgar!
@@elouise5593 Guessing this person was talking about when Edgar Martinez and Tino Martinez both played for us. But they weren't brothers and they weren't related.
Jay Buhner was a power hitter. You could tell by the sound of the bat hitting the ball whether it was going to be a home run.
Dave Neihaus has the best announcing voice! I was almost in tears listening to this
I dont care what anybody says, Ken Griffey was the most talented baseball player to ever grace a diamond. Absolutely unreal talent
I think I've seen this 3 times over the past few years and every time I have to fight back tears. Hearing Dave on the call during such iconic moments in Mariners history really stirs up the emotions.

yup I know what you mean!
Dave was like my second father growing up. I will never forget him.
RIP Dave, I'm sorry you never got to see the M's in the World Series.
That is my biggest dream concerning the M's. I say go all the way for Dave Niehaus.
