Aww you can see where Freddie gets his humbled personality. Sr Fred is quite a gentleman and raised a great son. Thank you for sharing your son with LA
Man… as a longtime dodger fan but a 33 year old with no father - seeing Freddie run up to his father Fred, and have that moment with him in celebration, that literally made me shed a tear. My own father was a longtime Dodger fan too but he died a long time ago in 1997 when I was only 6 years old
That was "Hollywood 101". The Dodgers are all very aware of the fact that they are in the media capital of the world. They ALL know where the camera is at all times!
I was fortunate to have watched and experienced two moments in World Series history: Kirk Gibson's walk-off home run against the Oakland A's in 1988 and yesterday's Freddie Freeman grand slam walk-off home run against the Yankees. Both were down to the last out, both had leg injuries, and both games were at Dodger Stadium in game one. The Dodgers went on to win that series in 1988, I hope that this Dodgers team would do the same. Unbelievable moments in history as a Dodger fan.
Me too I'm 52 Gibson homer still the greatest single sports moment to me. I was watching live and they showed all the brake lights because people were already leaving. My whole apt complex ran outside celebrating.
Man I was watching this from my living room couch and when Freeman hit that ball, I jumped off my couch and just started celebrating like I have never celebrated before. That was an incredible moment to watch and will go down in history.What a moment for Freeman. He needed it. Go dodgers!!! 💙💙💙
That was a little boy running to his dad ....so sweet. Incredible 1st world series and baseball game i watch and this happens...wow . This is like someone out of a baseball movie ..❤❤❤ Im a Dodgers fan 4 Life now. 💙💙💙
Not a BB fan and don't watch it. The headline caught my attention and I gotta say this moved me to tears. What a moment. I can imagine for a second what that must be like for father and son. Surreal. Truly a beautiful moment.
Freddie Freeman just lived every little kid's dream last night. Bottom of the Ninth (10th for Freddie), bases loaded, Game Winning Grand Slam, Game Over 😂. Awesome Moment. Just. Awesome 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 Go 💙🤍💙🤍🎉🎉🎉!!!
What a great moment for Freddie and his father. The last time my family watched a Dodger game together was the 88 WS Gibson walk off homer run. This moment with Freddie brought it all back. To see Freddie share this moment with his Dad was the icing on the cake.
Nestor Cortes is no Dennis Eckersley. Dennis Eckersley was unhittable back in 1988 when Kirk Gibson hit that walk off homerun, which made that game more exciting. Cortes serves up gopher balls. All and all, Freddie Freeman's walk off was awesome.
Wrong! Obviously you don't remember at all the lead up with Gibson by Vin Scully is EVERYTHING. No memorable broadcast call at all in this homerun, just the usual. This was cool, but nothing like that and will NOT be remembered. You watch! Gibson was really messed up, hurt and came into pinch hit. Are you kidding us? 😂😂Get a clue.
Naw Kirk's was iconic that's still celebrated today he pinch hit was on one leg literally swinging and almost falling because he couldn't put weight on his leg and most importantly, he hit against the most dominant relief pitcher of his era
Freddie Freeman's walk off homer was an exciting moment, but Kirk Gibson's 1988 walk off home run was more exciting for a few reasons. Kirk Gibson was not supposed to play in that series, due to his knee injury. He was facing the toughest relief pitcher in Dennis Eckersley who rarely allowed a home run during that season. The A's were highly favored to win the World Series. Kirk Gibson had to hit a homerun or walk. Yes there were two outs and the Dodgers were down by one run. Had Freddie Freeman walked, the game would have been tied and if he got a base hit, the Dodgers would have won. Nestor Cortes had not pitched in a month, while coming out of the bullpen very rusty, so the odds were in favor of Freddie Freeman to help win the game after Mookie Bettes was walked intentionally. I felt the Dodgers were destined to win this game. Kirk Gibson's homerun was a one in a million chance, especially since he was sent to pinch hit, while injured and against Dennis Eckersley who was the closer who did not give up home runs. I forgot to mention Kirk Gibson had two strikes against him before that walk off home run. A's were a strike away from winning that game. Freddie Freeman hits a grand slam on the first pitch.
As a Dodger fan, I was watching from my couch. When Freddie hit the ball, I immediately assumed it would be foul. Then I realized it was a grand slam. I jumped up and shouted words that would make a sailor blush (no kids in the room). I also watched (from my couch) the Gibson homer back in '88.
My dad played triple A and always said, “you’ve got a natural swing, don’t let the boys tell you otherwise” Thanks, dad R.I.P wish I could headbutt you 😁⚾️
I saw the Gibson homer and the Freeman homer. If the Dodgers win this series, that grand slam has to go down as one of the greatest Dodgers moments in history.
Poor Nestor Cortes. Not his fault. He didn’t load the bases , and had to throw strikes. Blame Boone for walking Betts to get to Freeman. Never a good idea…
That had nothing to do with it. For starters, Doyers only needed two runs to win. Betts represented the third run. Also, he’s been hitting well and runs well. I agree with the call.
Kirk & Freddy, DejaVu all over again! Game 1 (6-3) WiN just days after (63-year-old) Dodger great Fernando Valenzuela passes away, coincidence??... I think not
Congratulations Freddie Freeman you know that was a lucky swing and I say that because when you swung you close your eyes and number two that dance you did at third base is horrible it just does not look correct especially for baseball
Apparently, you don't know much about baseball. It wasn't a lucky swing...it was a pitch right down the centerline from Cortez who hadn't thrown a pitch in a month.
Dad has been there throughout, little league, school sports, etc., etc. They've both probably envisioned a moment like this at some point in their lives while also knowing the odds. Dreams do come true.

Bless you!

I hope you gents spend your weekend peacefully and getting progress on life’s important marks. Rest in peace to those we’ve lost

Idk how but they just recreated that Gibson Home run and bring that baseball magic, I loved every bit of it
YES!!!! DODGER NATION! Awesome job Freddie! 🎉Congratulations 🎉 RIP FERNANDO V. 💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️
I attended Game 1 on October 15, 1988.
That was the best! This was awesome, but not even close to the 1988 feat. History will show that too.
Long time baseball and Yankee fan! What a game. Thanks for the memories!
I don’t watch much baseball but I enjoy the post season! And watching this guy step up to the plate is totally worth watching
Great moment. Thanks for taking me to baseball games dad, I miss you
This game was awesome! Freddie rocks. Go Dodgers!!!

OMFG!!!fucken awesome I cried a lil with the biggest smile on my dam face thank you for this memory I won’t ever forget
Echoes of history. The Yankees tempted fate setting up that hero moment for Freddie. Simply magical.
I will always think of "Sandlot" while watching the Dodgers. Go boys in blue!
INSTANT CLASSIC AMONG THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME GO DODGERS 👍👍👍👍👍👍

@@Mr.NoName1972 The A’s had dominant pitching in ‘88 for sure. Just an all around great team. It was exciting watching the Dodgers take that series.
Legendary liberty pose.
Mookie is a cool dude.
First time in 121 years! 1903-2024
Watched that '88 game.........this was waaayyyy better c'mon Freddie's dad
Thinking this is what anyone who has played baseball dreams about.Happy for them.
I'm 33 right now and didn't witness gibbys Homer, but this right here....let's get 3 more boys!
Good Going, Freddie!!
They forgot time both occurred at 8:37 PM
Maybe I should use those numbers for the California Lotto tonight, but I will make sure I also pick number 34 for Fernando.
Atlanta, Miss U Mr. freeman! Letz Goooooo!
His dad is WAY too humble. This was 10x better than Kirk Gibson, are you kidding me 😂😂
Kirk Gipson was really hurt though.😊

Before Freddie's Grand Slam, the score was 3-2, Yankees.
when Freddie walked up to the plate in the 10th, the score was 3-2 Yankees.
@@billcornwell3619 That's right. I had my mind on the 1988 game.
@@billcornwell3619 Oh, that's right. I was thinking about the 1988 game when Gibby hit that home run,

Today LA Dodgers win,
LA Lakers win

Just Awesome 😊
That is good
Eck was asked about what you do when you give up a dramatic HR like Gibsons. He simply said, "You walk off."
Yeah, what a dumb question lmao.
Great game!! ⚾️
Bonding nothing better
Hug your dads. That is all
Lol I love his dad. Grand slams to win game 1 and he still love him but doesn't put him in the same league as Gibson. Always room for improvement.
I saw the Gibson homer and the Freeman homer. If the Dodgers win this series, that grand slam has to go down as one of the greatest Dodgers moments in history.
😢 happy tears
How many history books are going to be made.. 😮 go Dodgers.
Wow! Didn't see the game last night here in L.A. County. Holy Crap!

0:46 freaking Dean Spanos...
Imagine sharing a moment with your flesh and blood in the world series after they crank a grand slam. What an experience.
How bout thank Boone n Cortez 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
❤❤❤❤Good For Him..❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Let's Go Dodgers..❤❤❤❤❤
why won't you show the ball leaving the stadium?
Whoever caught it will be offered big bucks to turn it back over to the Dodgers.
The ball landed in the right field pavillion section of seat, which is PART OF DODGER STADIUM (Since 1962, btw)
Nostalgia
Wow, I'm only four years older than Freddie Freeman's dad.
Im glad a multi millionaire sports player doesn't complain😅😅
Great game GO DODGERS
Hell Yeeaaaaa
DAMN
Lol Rojas taking his time😂
Ain’t no way he’s picking the Gibson shot over his son’s
The Los Angeles Dodgers are on their way to a world series sweep, the Yankees don't stand a chance, even in New York!
imagine having a Good dad, thats where it all started. Love ur kids people! ..so they dont come out like me lol 🤪
Kirk & Freddy, DejaVu all over again! Game 1 (6-3) WiN just days after (63-year-old) Dodger great Fernando Valenzuela passes away, coincidence??... I think not
He forgot about the net, and it got a little awkward. lol
