The thing that's so amazing about Bailey is how great his technique is. When you break down the catcher throwing metrics, Bailey's raw arm strength is very good, but not elite. What really sets him apart is his exchange time - how fast he transitions from receiving the pitch to getting the throw off. Here, you can see he's already rotating towards first as he receives the pitch, and the ball is out of his glove and into his throwing hand before he's even finished turning. You can see how much that lightspeed release ambushed Perdomo, especially on a surprise back-pick. You see the same thing on his throws to second - most of the time, he's already shifting his feet and moving into his throwing motion as the pitch reaches him. That's some elite-level technique, especially when you remember that he has to actually catch a pitch moving who-knows-where while shifting his whole body into a different motion.
I also still really respect posey too but I don’t think his record was really close to baileys but I still do think that posey will forever be the greatest giants catcher of all time if not the greatest catcher of all time.
@@REDNECKRAVE I just looked it up. Posey appeared in 9 games in 2009 so the following stat is from 2010, his official rookie year: SB attempts: 39 Caught stealing: 23 If a player is picked off by the catcher at first base, it counts as a caught stealing in the book. Edit* - I think 39 is the actual number of bases successfully stolen. So the number would be 23 caught stealing out of 62 total attempts
@@rrosomasahe was playing good this year too. Cut his strikeout rate in half from last year, hitting over .300 consistently, until getting hurt and slumping, while being one of the best defensive catchers in baseball. But his injury opened up opportunity for Farhan'to bring up and install his own 1st round pick. That's what happened
Bailey hasn't played a half season worth of games yet. He needs to prove that he can adjust to the league adjusting to him and hit consistently in MLB, or he'll be gone
There's still a chance Bart could be the Giants catcher of the future. He'll be on the playoff roster. Sabol behind the plate in a playoff game is a nightmare waiting to happen
He has the most compact mechanics for a catcher that we've seen in a long time. Absolutely no wasted movement which is why his throws are so fast. Giants have another gunslinger behind the plate
@@ldo1308nope. His pop numbers aren't actually close. But that's fine. A year of living in denial with no one to hold you accountable for this textual diarrhea.
BACK PICK FROM THE KNEES!!!! DAM!!!! Man’s stone cold too. Everyone’s losing their shit and he’s just like “ah whatever, I do this shit all the time” 😂
Dude already might be the best defensive catcher in the league. There is enough of a book out on him at this point that it is getting wild that teams are still testing him as much as they do. Although not the same Offensive player, he really does look like the second coming of Posey defensively.
He is his own man. We will see how he develops. Buster Posey was an amazing catcher, but every player brings their own talent. I am still hoping Joey Bart will get to a place he is at his very best.
There's a reason why he won the Minor League Gold Glove last year. They only award one per position throughout all levels of Minor League Baseball. Casey Schmitt won it for third base as well. The Giants future is in really good hands.
Watching compilations I’m seeing how often his calls are challenged and reversed in his favor. That fraction of a second is making “tie goes to the runner” swing in his favor, and review makes it possible to see that and get it right. Also, is it my imagination? It looks to me like he’s got two targets for throws to second - either right on the bag or roughly where the runner’s head - let’s say “torso” - will be when the ball arrives. Not saying he’s trying to hit him. I’m saying he has every confidence his guy is going to catch it, and the runner knows that, and the runner is thinking about that throw when he goes into his slide. I was once a catcher and never had the talent to even imagine that until now. But I think that’s what I’m seeing here.
@@maxbobness Everyone has a way of doing what works for them. Hope he never accidentally hits a player on the head from what you described. He really is talented. You have humility. Saying you were a catcher and not imagining doing what he is doing, how he does it, shows you recognize someone else's talent and can be happy for the person. Thanks for a thoughtful comment.
That was one of the best pick- offs ever. Good game and much needed home run from Brandon Crawford. The review on camera was enough to see the runner was out.
@@blakeyoungquist2267 I have plenty of respect for Buster , but if you think he's the GOAT you don't know much about the history of the game. He's not even the Giants all-time greatest catcher.
That was frickin amazing. The most amazing thing I've seen in years. This guy is something special to watch. What a find. What an arm. How do you throw like that with a mask flopping around your head! Move over Buster Posey, Johnny Bench, Pudge Rodriguez.
Wow. Perdomo got sniped. Well he knows now. Notice how Patrick barely celebrates after making a badass play - he is all business. Reminds me a little of another Giants catcher...
Usually, these plays require super-slo-mo and three different angles before you can figure out if the guy was safer or out. Bailey just nailed that sucker and left no bout adoubt it.
This reminds me of one of the most famous (but not remembered so well!) CS (caught stealing) outs in MLB history. Babe Ruth, on 1b, in the 7th game of the 1926 World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals, tried to steal 2b with 2-outs in the 9th, trailing 3-2, and was thrown out, tagged by fellow (later) Hall of Famer, Rogers Hornsby, ending that memorable series. It remains the only WS ending on a CS! With the possible exception of his famous "bellyache" in 1925 (suspected alcohol related, and out-of-shape; weighing almost 260 pounds), causing him to have a rare, down-season (only hit .290, with 25 HRs), the CS ending of the '26 WS was undoubtedly his lowest baseball moment. The Yankees took revenge over the next two years, wiping out first the Pirates in '27, and then the Cardinals in '28, each with 4 consecutive WS wins. Arguably the best 2-years by a team in modern (post-1900) MLB history, and the first time to do consecutive 2-years WS sweeps! Overall, the Cardinals are one of the few NL teams that have an edge over the Yankees in WS opposition, winning 3 (1926, 1942, 1964), losing 2 (1928, 1943).
Benito Santiago from the SD PADRES would do such plays from his knees constantly Day in/Day out he was something special to watch at Jack Murphy Stadium
Not taking anything away from PB, he’s awesome, but the Giants pitchers are very quick to the plate also. The Giants receivers, and tags are just exceptional! The whole thing is just an extremely well oiled machine!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I had a friend growing up back in the late 60s, used to pick off the first base runner after a flyball from centerfield. People finally started learning to watch him. 😳
Nah it’s gotta be Carrol. Possibly turning in a 30/30 in your rookie year is insane. Now if Pat was still above .300/.850 then mayyybe he’d sneak in there. It pains me to say it as a Giants fan, but it’s true.
I’m a senior citizen lady who has watched many baseball games in my life..I have never seen anything like this play. It’s definitely worth watching a few times. 😁
I'm remembering a Baltimore Orioles game from 1983. Orioles manager Altobelli had used up his utility players AND catchers when it got to extra innings and a player named Len Sakata, a utility man who had been brought in earlier to play 2nd base, was all that was left when the Os needed another catcher. Tippy Martinez was pitching. The Blue Jays batter got on base and was so anxious to run on Sakata that Martinez picked him off. The same thing happened with the next batter, and then again for the third out. Martinez picked off the whole side. Sakata was so relieved he never had to throw to second base that when he came to bat in the bottom of the inning, he hit a home rum and won the game. Sometimes a dreadful catcher can be the winner.
Ive played catcher. Great play. The pitcher was informed. He put the throw by the catcher's ear so he could get it out fast. Even the 1st baseman. Team effort
Giants catcher of the future! Way to go Patty Bailey!
Possibly so
@@ldo1308not possible. It’s definitive
And present.

Well, pitcher makes the exchange easy by putting the ball directly on Bailey’s right shoulder.
Wasn't even close. Runner was still 5' from the bag when the ball was in the fielders glove right at the bag.
Not to mention an absolutely, perfectly, places throw.
Wow! Bailey has been so good for us!, I mean, 19 caught stealing! That’s Ridiculous!
I mean as a true fan I still respect Posey as well. But what was his record compared to Bailey? Is it pretty close to being the same?
I also still really respect posey too but I don’t think his record was really close to baileys but I still do think that posey will forever be the greatest giants catcher of all time if not the greatest catcher of all time.

Wow, fantastic play! To be honest, I don't remember Posey possessing as strong of an arm or the quick release that Bailey has. This guy is a keeper!
Posey actually had a stronger arm; Bailey has better pop-time and surprise factor with just as good accuracy.
Bart has a stronger arm too. Bailey has great technique

We have a real star, folks.
Since May, he has thrown out or picked off 20 guys. The guy with second most has 12.
A stud.
The tag was great too!
Such beautiful baseball by Bailey
DON'T RUN ON PATRICK BAILEY. 🔥🔥
Been saying this since his first week in mlb that this kid was going to be an absolute star!! Little over 2 months later and he's absolutely shining!!
Best catcher’s arm in the league 👍
We have a cannon with a uniform.
What a Stud!!
Dude is definitely a big part of the future
He looks so relaxed, chewin on that gum. We got a keeper for sure.
Patrick caught someone at 2nd too in the previous inning. This boy is nasty. 🔥
Bailey, hosing down runners from his knees, reminds me of Benito Santiago.
That is a play you only see all-time greats make
Ive been watching clips of this dude a while now. Fun dude to watch play for sure.

This reminds me of one of the most famous (but not remembered so well!) CS (caught stealing) outs in MLB history. Babe Ruth, on 1b, in the 7th game of the 1926 World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals, tried to steal 2b with 2-outs in the 9th, trailing 3-2, and was thrown out, tagged by fellow (later) Hall of Famer, Rogers Hornsby, ending that memorable series.

With the possible exception of his famous "bellyache" in 1925 (suspected alcohol related, and out-of-shape; weighing almost 260 pounds), causing him to have a rare, down-season (only hit .290, with 25 HRs), the CS ending of the '26 WS was undoubtedly his lowest baseball moment. The Yankees took revenge over the next two years, wiping out first the Pirates in '27, and then the Cardinals in '28, each with 4 consecutive WS wins. Arguably the best 2-years by a team in modern (post-1900) MLB history, and the first time to do consecutive 2-years WS sweeps! Overall, the Cardinals are one of the few NL teams that have an edge over the Yankees in WS opposition, winning 3 (1926, 1942, 1964), losing 2 (1928, 1943).
Three universal truths: You do not run on Yadier Molina, you do not run on Buster Posey, and you do not run on Patrick Bailey.
Mr. Franchise cornerstone.
Great play by both catchers tonight! Also good managing, Kap putting Patrick in there late to get that finer edge.
