    He’s possibly the nicest man I’ve ever met. He once threw a no hitter in 1994 for the Toledo mud hens and he had a meet n greet at the little Caesar’s right around the corner from my house and I was just 8 years old but he sat and talked with my dad and I for at least 15 min. I still have the autographs he gave me from that day.

      such a cool guy. I grew up about 10 minutes from Shea stadium, and he had some family friends that knew my friend's dad, and lived a few blocks away from where my friend and I did. One day the Astros were in town, and my friend's dad asks if we want to meet Jose Lima. We say of course, thinking he had Mets tickets, which was very in-character for him. 15 minutes later, Jose Lima was in his friend's house in Queens, smoking a fat cigar, dressed in a silk shirt, on a giant leather couch, hanging and watching a Cubs game with three 11 year old kids that he had zero relation to. Its an old memory, but I think he actually chilled with us for about 45 minutes, breaking down what he liked about whoever was pitching in the game that was on. How many mlb players are doing that?

    During thatt 2004 season with the dodgers he would sit at the top of the dugout before every game and sign autographs for all the kids. I remember staying in line for about half hour before the game as a kid. He was an amazing person and I still have his autographed baseball on display in my room.

    Believe it! I was at that 2004 playoff game. I don't think Dodger stadium has ever been more electric than that game. He had a spell on the crowd and the Cardinals that night. The crowd went crazy when he came out for the 9th inning everyone went nuts. Even through Eric Gagne with 45 saves that year was in the bullpen. What a night! The only catch was the hour and half long wait to get out of the parking lot. RIP Lima Time

    Dominican here. The day Lima died was a national tragedy. Dude was not only hilarious and unique, he was a pillar of the community everywhere he went and poured his heart out pitching no matter the level. He was as intense in DWL as he was in the Majors. Loved the guy even though he pitched for the archrival of my DWL team.

    Not many if there is any videos of Lima. But the guy was energizing. As a Dominican myself he was always in the same mood no matter the moment, even in the winter league in DR after being beaten up, he kept his humor and personality above all. Glad to see he is remembered as you showed us here.

    @DakodaOK 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +47

    Jose Lima was genuinely crazy in a positive way. I watched him give up a home run at Busch Stadium, then point at the hitter all the way around the bases and scream at him (apparently he was infamous for being like... wildly positive but aggressive?)... then he started screaming at the ball in his hand.

    Lima was one of the nicest and humblest players. I used to see him while on vacation in the Dominican Republic, and he never failed to say hi to me, even though he didn't know me. One December, I was at a club with my girlfriend, and he and his girlfriend or wife invited us to a huge New Year’s Eve party at his house. Stories like mine are all over the Dominican Republic. His love for the game, music, and life was so immense that I believe deep down he knew he would have a short life. Always remember Lima!

    Let me tell you something, i saw Reds/Astros July 2nd, 1999 at Cincinnati. It was 120 degrees in the shade that day. Still one of the hottest days I've ever seen. Pre-game all the players were in the clubhouse. Only 1 player had the guts to be out there signing autographs. It was Jose Lima. RIP Jose.

  • @joaquinperez9146
    @joaquinperez9146 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    That 2000 season with the 'Stros nearly destroyed his career. That's the year he went from pitching in the old Astrodome- where home runs went to die- to the little league ballpark formerly known as Enron Field. I was sad when he left Houston, and of course, when he passed away. I'll never forget how fun Lima Time was and still have his autographed baseball in my office.

    Had the pleasure of meeting and talking to him during a Royals Giants game in San Francisco back in 2005. I was 7. My parents and I were sitting behind the visitors on deck circle. When he was up next he said he’d give me a ball if I didn’t boo him when he went up to bat 😂 gave me a ball the very next inning. Insanely kind guy. It’s tragic he was taken from us so soon. Thanks for the ball, Jose.

  • @T_K7
    @T_K7 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    Bro truly did say "it's Lima time" before he Lima'd all over the place. What a legend.
    Really though, it's the lack of smugness that made it work at the time. A lot of the complaints for the sort of expressive behaviors that are becoming common today have to do with how showy it tends to be. Lima didn't come across as a show-off because he was just that genuinely cheery and energetic by default, and that's a lot easier to respect (especially in those moments where the performance doesn't back it up).

    Its only an issue when the celebration is about showing up the opponent. Pointing, staring, gesturing towards them, that kind of thing. Cause thats going to be taken as a challenge every time. But if you're psyched cause you did something awesome celebrate your ass off imo. The line is kind of grey, but theres still a line. Lima never crossed it imo. I always respected the national anthem thing for some reason. I think I loved it because it was so authentic, it was not a bit. He really loved America and was proud of himself for making it to MLB.. its so pure.

    I watched him play in Detroit AND later in South Korea. I lived in the same city that he played in, Gwangju, and he had quite the following there in his short time. A character like that is going to stand out anywhere he goes.

    Because everybody loved Lima and Lima Time. If you didn't like Jose you didn't love yourself.

    He and the Licey team from the dominican league had the craziest battles. I as a fan of Licey celebrated when we beated him, but always recognized his charisma and laughed at his antics.

    I played in his merengue band here in Houston. Once , when I was taking my grandpa to radiation treatment, I saw him there with his dad. He told me that he prayed to God to heal his dad and he would give up his baseball career. I told him that God would never ask him to do that. But that’s just the kind of dude he was. R.I.P. Lima Time!
