Ummmmmmmmmm the first clip wasnt a delay ,its a mets tradition called stolen bases where in between an inning they have someone come onto the field and try to run accross the field and get a base as fast as possible
@@rksr7026 Usually it’s not supposed to happen. They have a kid run on the right field wall to collect a base against a timer, not run onto the field to get a base. So that’s why he probably got confused.
I love the Ballpark in Arlington, it’s still a gorgeous stadium in my opinion. But it was always a mistake to make it an open air stadium. Forget about thunderstorms, it gets awfully hot in Texas during the majority of the baseball season, even at night. I always said it was the perfect stadium for a northern sports city.
That lightening charge was right over their heads. In that moment, everything stops. even you. Look at the pitcher in that moment & and tell me he didnt fart.
As someone who grew up in Tennessee, it makes me laugh when people are scared of lightning. There are so many storms in the Spring time here that we are used to it. If I'm 50 years old and I literally only know 1 person who has been struck by lightning, I don't think there's that much danger...
They told him to steal the base in front of the cheerleaders. After some quick math the kid went to 2nd base first. Which made the base in front of the cheerleaders 3rd. Which made the cheerleaders "home."
Um, I made a comment earlier tonight that, I guess, went out over the air that I am deeply ashamed of. If I have hurt anyone out there, I can't tell you how much I say, from the bottom of my heart, I'm so very, very, sorry. I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith, as there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos, it will be a home run. And so that will make it a 4-0 ballgame. I don't know if I'm gonna be putting on this headset again.
Put yourself in a kid’s shoes. If you were in a Major League Baseball game. Around 40,000 people. With big league players you would think it would be cool, but probably overwhelmed and nervous like fuck. Of course even more so than someone making their rookie debut. So, yes a kid needs assistance. They are indeed a kid. After they steal they might not know which gate to go to next. Or where their parents are. Adults… you just don’t know with them. There are some crazy ones out there.
@@deew_knird_reeb_ekomS Incorrect. Lightning strikes the path that gives it the least resistance to ground. That's why lightning rods actually work, if what you said were true they'd be useless.
@@snap-off5383 you are correct that lightning strikes a given path of least resistance in a given moment of time. But that doesn't mean that lightning necessarily always follows such principles, nor does it mean that high up objects are the path of least resistance 100% of the time. Physics is very complicated and there are plenty of factors that can change where the lightning strikes. It is incredibly unlikely for lightning to strike the field, but it's not impossible which is it's ill advised to play outside during a thunderstorm and why and all major league sports who operate in outdoor venues tend to stop play for a thunder storm. Many an unfortunate victim thought they'd never be struck by lightning for xyz, and thus lightning became the leading killer among all meteorological phenomenon. If Lightning never struck the field like you say, then pro leagues wouldn't stop play. Why would a pro league stop play if there was no threat at all? Delays lead to worse tv ratings, people leaving early, and overall less money for the league. No one wants delays not fans and not sports leagues. There is a reason the NFL played in extreme dangerous cold conditions but would not play in a thunderstorm. If you say it's to protect the fans, then I would point again to the recent Chiefs-Dolphins NFL playoff game played in the extreme cold. It's been reported that many fans suffered extreme frostbite and may need amputations. Clearly the NFL was fine playing a game even in conditions that posed extreme risk to the fans, but a thunderstorm also poses risk to the players and team officials so when it thunderstorms, the NFL undergoes it's weather delay protocol. Even if you want to say that its the NFL and not MLB, my point is simply that the actions of the NFL treating an extreme cold weather game vs a thunderstorm game clearly show the risk of lightning striking players or other people on the field is real enough to warrant suspending play. Overall Lightning Accidents have happened a lot and there is no fool proof way to prevent lightning strikes even with a bunch of lightning rods or high up structures around a person. You can reduce the risk but not prevent it entirely. As long as a person is outside while it is thunder storming, or even if there is a thunderstorm miles away, they remain a potential conducting path for the lightning to strike at.
It’s crazy that they had to delay the game to get Altuve off of the field in the first clip. Was he not supposed to be playing that game?
That's foul dude 🤣 He was in the second clip too... That loud electric shock was coming from his chest...
0:34 the fact that the camera glitches milliseconds before the loud bang is incredibly chilling
Loud bang💀 totally not lightning or thunder
Lol nice
Yeah it’s a build up of electrical particles in the air before the thunder/lightning strikes, if I remember correctly.
There's a delay on the feed, the lightning strike interfered with the broadcast itself.
Now we know why the Rangers literally never open the roof anymore

That doesn’t happen at Minute Maid Park.

You realize how you discredited the whole rest of your point by doing something dumb like that? Ummmmmmm
Geez relax i didnt mean to start internet beef
That 2nd one was insane!!!!! LOL
Nothing like a Texas thunderstorm!
That lightning… players were like “screw that”

I liked seeing the fans going after the home runs to straight center!!
That's nice they let the kid wear a Houston Jersey and hat.
Altuve? I know right
@@LegalizeRanch69 😂😂⚾️🤝🏾
The first one wasn’t a kid, it was just Jose Altuve
Oh the bee situation in 08 between the Astros and Padress should have been on here
Agreed
As far as the clip with the bird is concerned, where’s Randy Johnson when you need him!
Haha, first thing that popped into my mind.
Gotta love that Texas weather 🌩 ⚡️ ⛈️
Willingham(?) had the correct response. If you're about to get hit by lightning, you have a better chance of survival by getting down on all fours.
God I remember that lightning and thunder clap outta nowhere like holy 💩!!!
sorry… that was just me clapping my girls cheeks

Chasing a bird with a bat! 😅
God dogs at a baseball game Rediculous
I'm legit surprised that the kid wasn't taller than Altuve.
Add bee colony to the list from yesterday’s game dodgers at Arizona hahah
Lol!
I was at the game where that thunder clap happened. Scared the shit out of my little sister. Made everyone jump but she wanted to leave after that.
They told him to steal the base in front of the cheerleaders.

Draft that kid he’s got like A potential

F ing dogs? 👀 like Home Depot
What about the famous midge game?
I mean he’s just a kid
Catchers like I'm out
So was the batter! 😂
Hold on
If instead of a kid its an adult they would not have followed him off field.
They told the kid to go steal a base.

bruh the 1st one isn’t a delay of game 😕
What if that kid was black or latino??
100th comment
no way would lightning ever strike the center of a stadium field. The easier path to ground will be the stands.
Lightning strikes where it strikes. It’s likely that it will strike the high objects, but it doesn’t always. It’s completely and totally random.

Do a little bit of reading. Lightning HAS struck inside a ballpark, and, has struck players.
