Thank you all for watching, this list was especially difficult to make compared to last year. I would have loved to include moments like Logan Webb's outings, the Blackout Game, Bellinger's clutch HR, Boston's grand slams, Framber's outing, and much more.
Of course, there are only 10 spots, and here are the best this year had to offer in my opinion. I would love to hear your rankings below!
I love the video but Scherzer’s save over Leury Garcia’s bomb to take the lead isn’t here? As an Astros fan, that homer killed everybody in Houston.
@LetsGoYankees doesn’t matter about the series. That homer was way more exciting than a check swing call
@LetsGoYankees it shouldn’t at all. And yes, Braves walk offs should be higher
@LetsGoYankees it’s moments for Christ sakes, not based on what happened in the future. Correas homer was by far ahead
no love for the White Sox, beat Houston in game 3 they’ve been cheating for 4 yrs straight. that’s the only reason we didn’t advance, we played a horrible ball club
Man, this postseason was something else...DEFINITELY did not disappoint.
Nah, it was pretty horrible because the umpires made countless wrong calls, but the Braves winning it all was pretty exciting
@@marcovehurley It was not horrible lol
Unless you are a giants fan
@@parthsharma9606 you must have not watched the postseason then cus the umpires were definitely calling bs calls
@@marcovehurley With the exception of the Giants check swing which we'll never know if it would have made a difference or not...they still had a lot of work to do. Two strikes, down by 1, and down to their last out. Hurt to go out that way but chances are that run wasn't scoring.
The Braves were the team hurt the most by umpiring and pulled it off despite that.
Edit: The Rays not getting both of those runs with 2 outs and runners going on contact is incredibly unfortunate also.
Anybody notice how the last play that the Braves won the NLCS and World Series was almost identical? Ground ball to Swanson who threw to Freeman at first and Freeman threw both hands up in celebration and then they storm the mound.
almost like they were celebrating both times
@@freezey5036 lol
first thing i said to my gf when it happened, we won this the exact same way
The only difference game 6 against dodgers was more thrilling than game 6 for the astros. Go Braves.
@@freezey5036 and grounding out to short is kind of a common way to get an out
I’ve never been more fired up watching the Braves then when Matzek struck out the side against the Dodgers. I didn’t even go as crazy during game 6 of the World Series. Matzek getting out of that inning was like the city of Atlanta climbing out of the hole it’s teams have been in for the last 26 years. For the first time I thought “Oh my God they’re gonna do it” instead of trying to figure out when they would blow it.
Those three outs were the greatest performance of the postseason
@@claydouglas2526 they were huge , dodgers were gaining momentum and matzek shut it all down
@@kapoleihammah9680 all-time postseason pitching appearance. Truly unforgettable
Ya - WS Game 6 had a lot of “destiny” moments. Little things that would normally go wrong went right.
For all the bad luck ATL teams have had, it was about time we had some good luck!
@@claydouglas2526 Agreed. Was lucky enough to be at that game and I've never been at a stadium that was so fired up. That and the Rosario robbing Altuve of the double on his catch at the wall I'm convinced were the two biggest reactions from the crowd of the postseason.
You’re a legend for including Max Fried getting stepped on then dominating
Fried after getting stepped on "...and I took that personally."
@@J0Z0_ lol thought of the exact thing
He became Mad Max after that and proceeded to silence the Astro bats
Thats what im saying 😭
He got stepped on bc he fucked up..🤷🏼♂️
The Braves won when I was born in 95’ and 26 years later I finally get to see them win. I loved this post season run by my hometown team and everyone in GA believed in them from game 1 of NLDS. Thank you Braves for making this such a special moment for all of us, Hank Aaron is smiling down on this team
Same 95 baby in da building
I had a felling that was intentional
Man, I forgot about Arozarena stealing home. Electric stuff. And of course I could watch Soler murder that baseball a zillion times
I was never a Braves fan but I really enjoyed watching them this year. They battled their way through and everyone on their roster was a major contributor along the way. I can’t think of a team more deserving to be the champions.
What an amazing season Braves! Congrats!!!
As a life-long Braves fan that grew up in Marietta and who still lives in Georgia, I have fond memories of watching them when I was a kid with my grandfather and mom who were both HUGE fans. My grandfather passed away in 1992 while watching the Braves in his hospital room and my mom passed away from cancer in 2004 but I swear, as I was watching Game 6, I could almost hear and feel them on both sides of me sharing in the excitement as we watched that final out when the Braves won it all!
I knew they were up in Heaven with Hank Aaron doing the Tomahawk Chop, rooting for the Braves and with that last out, it was the perfect storybook ending. It was like God Himself planned the 2021 Braves season and victory as the perfect underdog movie to prove to all humanity that anything is possible when you have faith. With faith, we can overcome any obstacles thrown at us. When we love and support one another regardless of race, circumstances, or political beliefs - anything is possible!
Here is another thing I thought I'd mention that proves this couldn't have been scripted any better as a movie. Hank Aaron died on January 22nd of this year. The Braves had 44 wins at the All-Star break. They won 44 more games to get to the playoffs. They won the World Series on November 2nd, the 44th week of the year. Hank Aaron's number was 44.
That is destiny. This season was epic! I believe this season was God letting us know that even in these challenging times in which we live, when it seems that all hope is lost, that God is alive and well and that miracles are still possible when we have faith and persevere regardless of how bad things may appear.
I believe that God used the 2021 Braves season as a metaphor to show us that He loves this great nation and that it is still the land of the free and home of the brave(s).
This season united us all. Thank you Atlanta Braves for being the vessel that God used to show that through faith all things are possible!
Great story and I’m not 100% but I think we also had 44 total runs in the playoffs
Was this a school project or do you type so fast😂😂😂😂
I’m sorry for your losses may they both Rest In Peace gone to soon prayers for your family and everyone who knew them
That Braves team was a special SPECIAL team. Probably even more special than last year. So glad I was able to witness their historic run.
It was alright if acuna hadn't gotten hurt braves wouldn't made it to the world series
@@barbos5950 He may actually be right, as Acuña's injury was the catalyst for AA signing all those outfield pieces, who in turn not only brought production to the field in terms of personal stats, but brought a different mentality to the clubhouse itself to energize it (Joc in particular). Yeah, it sucks Acuña got hurt, but in the long run it may have indirectly benefitted us.
as a braves fan, the Matzek 7th inning was when i finally told myself "we're going to the world series". one of the most clutch relief innings of all time. absolutely electric
This was easily the best postseason baseball I’ve ever seen next to 2002 my angels of course been a braves fan deep down I do live in Cali so I root for my Angels first but they’ve been sucking recently so it’s nice my childhood team got it done. A World Series worth remembering.
2013 was actually pretty crazy considering the Boston bombing happened and then the Red Sox took off
Nah this was the worst since 2018
@@qDelinquent poor Houston huh
@@dannyspider9377 It sucks when a team you loved for a long time has succumbed to the Succubus of realizing that you can’t win any final without cheating. Cheating would also result in the entire team getting rattled on for a long time until you finally made the agreement to stop and win a real Championship. There are still people out there who still consider the Astros cheaters and would go out of their way to make sure that the nickname of “Houston Asterisks” is still in play, while also shitting on the Organization while also hiding the past. There’s one thing for certain though; Fuck Beltran.
Charlie Morton striking out Altuve on a broken leg belongs here too I think
He didn’t break it until after that pitch, it was on the landing.
@@Brian-di1hq Gurriel broke his leg. He struck out Altuve the following inning
@@claydouglas2526 nobody can pitch with a broken leg...not now,not ever!
Yuli might have cracked whatever he finished breaking later
@@yelyharmony2047 It might have been aggravated by the landing, but it was 1) definitely fractured before [per MLB’s report] and 2) not horrible even post-landing - since he was able to walk off under his own power - so not unreasonable that he was able to pitch to a few hitters post-fracture / pre-aggravation. Broken legs cut a wide swath re: loss of function.
@@Brian-di1hq fractured fibula from a groundball by gurriel the previous inning
"In what might be his last at-bat with the Braves-"
Well this might be your last World Series broadcast if you don't zip it.
Of course Joe Buck would find a way to ruin a good moment
Thank you!!
That was just pitiful commentating. The dude just hit one of the greatest, most memorable home runs of his life and you mention he MIGHT not re-sign with his current (about to win the World Series for the first time in 26 years) team. Just garbage. His friends and family are watching, his BIGGEST fans are watching, HE’S gonna rewatch this, and we all have to deal with your bullshit Joe Buck. Just go home…
It actually was too. Buck will no longer be doing it
How did Boston’s two grand slams in one game not make this list?
I’m pretty sure it wasn’t in one game
@@zacharycarvajal They had three within the span of games 2 and 3 of the ALCS
@@zacharycarvajal it was in 2 innings lol
@@zacharycarvajal it was in 2 innings I remember the pain
@@zacharycarvajal it was in 2 inninga
At 5:43, you can literally hear Ron Darling shit his pants when that ball got through.
Darling was cheering for the dodgers all series long and he didn't hide it either
That's why i tuned in to 680 The Fan to hear Ben Ingram and Joe Simpson call the NLCS and WS games. Far superior play by play and commentary. Jeff Francoeur is great but Ron Darling was insufferable.
If they gave an MVP for overall playoff performance it’d have to go to Matzek
Absolutely. I have no arguments with either Rosario or Soler as series MVPs. They earned it. But for the postseason as a whole? Tyler Matzek, hands down.
Not much from Riley in game 6 of WS. But he's contribution deserves a mention.
Nah will Smith was 7 for 7 close opportunities never been done in the post season with 0.00 runs
@@AssumedPseudonym will Smith by far deserves the mvp
@@brlybseballplayer34 Tbf Matzek was put into MUCH worse jams to fight out of. He had more high stress pitches than Smith. Will was still fantastic though.
When a wild card walk off homer is #10 you know it was an amazing postseason
Outstanding job putting this together and thank you for remembering Tyler Matzek’s incredible 7th inning (and Postseason).
Watching this as a Braves and Dawgs fan, and I still can't believe we got both championships in the same year. It's been an amazing few months. So grateful
Damn what an awesome postseason. Glad it ended with my team getting the trophy.
Same go braves
It’s arguable that your #2 (Rosario beating Dodgers) could be the #1 moment.
Matzek should have been #1. He's got to be the best fireman I've ever seen. I had chills watching what he did to the Dodgers. And had to start with Albert Effing Pujols. Earned his nickname.
The Braves had some unbelievable slides at home plate. Rossario's against the Dodgers and Dansby's in the World Series were two of the best I've ever seen.
Dansby was born and raised in Atlanta he said he used to dream of winning the World Series with the braves and that was just him living his childhood dreams
We were in the stadium when the Braves won the division! And watching from our couch when they won the World Series! Go Braves!
I get putting the World Series clincher at #1 but Matzek striking out the side with no outs and two men in scoring position, as a Braves fan I was in utter despair and thought we were going to lose the lead, was cussing out both Snitker for putting in Jackson, and cussing out Jackson for putting the Braves in a hole, then Matzek had the most clutch moment of the post season. In that moment he was truely the greatest pitcher to ever step on the mound it felt like. In that moment he was the most filthy dominant pitcher in the postseason. Love that man for that moment. It’s a moment I’ll never forget, on the flip side I gaged ten years during that inning 😜😂
i’m surprised bellinger’s 3 run tying home run wasn’t on this list that moment was crazy when i watched that
fax
Yeah, I would consider that to be a much bigger moment than Arozarena stealing home. Stealing home is cool, but it was the 4th run in a 5-0 game. Surely that 8th inning was a bigger moment. That steal and the Scherzer strike out were two that didn't make any sense to me. Those and the Correa one being third were weird decisions.
15 seconds into the video im already sad. At my grandpas house to watch this one. Waino threw a beauty. On the driver home we listen to this one on the radio.
The content this channel produces is better than anything primetime cable has to offer. Outstanding job on all things related to the MLB Postseason. Thank you...Chop On!!
Thank you!
Game 3 of the ALDS was a nail-biter. Just an incredible fan experience.
shoulda been the top 11 postseason moments so belli’s 3 run homer off luke jackson in the nlcs coulda been in there somewhere. i know we lost in the end but damn was that a GAME.
That should for sure be in there. Made a series out of it
As an astros fan I gotta give the braves hella credit.. they were so clutch.. and didnt mind that astros losing to a great team like that.. it was just their year..congrats to the braves and all their fans
I’m a lifelong Braves fan and loved every minute of this postseason, but Arozarena stealing home has got to be one of the most impressive clips I’ve ever seen, especially from a rookie.
LETS GO BRAVESSS
YESSSSSSSSSSS
From a Sox fan, thank you Atlanta! Love you guys!
@@PizzaParker107 thank you
That Soler homer took all the wind out of the Astros sails. I remember getting so hype with my friends watching that
That correa time celebration was the coldest thing I’ve ever seen
The walk off back to back are way better than scherzer just getting the final out
Such a great, insane post season for my team to finally get it done. Go Braves!
Been a braves fan since I called a chipper Jones Home run when I was 6. I was a fan after their world series win. So glad to finally see it happen.
leurys garcias HR in ALDS was pretty electric great video either way
That home run from solar was amazing!
Honorable mention: Charlie Morton pitching on a broken leg
Didn’t he throw like 20 pitches on a broken leg? Or, was it less?
Soler pimped that like he was still in Atlanta
Matzek's pitching performance in Game 6 against the Dodgers was epic - the best of baseball, right there. That's when I knew that the Braves would win it all.
Crazy how quiet the stadium got when Altuve hit that ball only for Rosario to make a sweet grab, then the place went nuts lol!
The last lines from smoltz….perfect forever in my memory of this Braves post season…
Great video , never get tired of watching Braves wins!
🇧🇷 Que baita video. Que campeonato foi esse pra Atlanta hein. Memorável! You are world champions for the rest of your life's!
TBS may have a worse broadcast as a whole, but man they pick their commentators well. Brian Anderson and Don Orsillo are certainly two of the best in the business right now.
Anderson and Darling were unbelievably biased against Atlanta.
@@dylanclearfield Nailed it. Anderson was butthurt because the Braves tossed the Brewers aside in short order, and Darling was just on acid.
@@thelogicalman9259 Anderson also did the hawks - Knicks series, and was very anti Atlanta there too. Everyone hates Atlanta, no idea why
@@dylanclearfield Only thing I can figure is that they think the Civil War is still going on. The media has always been anti-South…
@@dylanclearfield It was like listening to Tim McCarver all over again. Joe Buck is insufferable too.
18:26 Soler just stole my children away from me. :(
I had a baseball game the night the braves won it and had school the next day so I couldn’t see the braves win it aside from highlights but when I heard it brought tears of joy to me
Greinke’s hit shoulda been an honorable mention
Man the national league was stacked. The dodgers were in the wild card
Gonna miss Freddie for everything be done for the Braves! When he goes into the Hall it will be as a Brave
Correa really said “my time” then disappeared for the rest of the series, kinda happy we get to see something new at SS on the Astros
Pretty sure that Soler shot hit me in the back of the head today after it finally left low earth orbit.
#5 just proves how the ground rule double should be a judgment call of runners go on base
As painful as it was to see my Astros lose the world series, it was awesome to see a team like the braves win. The Astros were a better team on paper, but that's why you play the game. Congrats to Atlanta, I had fun chatting with some of their fans during game 2. We took that one, but they took the series. Oh well. Once again, congrats to the ATL.
Thanks for putting the extended clips in
My only gripe with this was the inclusion of the check swing nonsense that we all know was bull.
Don’t you just love how they always have to shame someone when they make a huge mistake or miss a hard play like when Seager missed that rocket and the Braves walk it off, they zoom in on Seager walking back to second.
Thanks for posting. I love my braves
as a Braves fan this was perfect
HM: Redsox Playoff Homerun Parade or 3 Grand Slams in 2 games.
I go back and forth, don’t get me wrong winning the World Series was one of the best moments I can remember, but the dodgers series just had more emotion for me. I think matzek’s inning was the best moment of the postseason for me (but I was also screaming and yelling and loving it when soler hit that moonshot)
Giants took all the energy out of LA. That was like the World Series for us 😂
Love this so much! Thnx. Hey, maybe you could add the date with the description in each highlight..
*honorable mention* when The commissioner got booed off the stage while presenting the trophy
im so excited for next season
Best postseason in a long time.
Flores never swang
Maldonado throwing the runner out at second base for the double play in the 8th inning against the Red Sox was also a top moment but this is a nice list.
Bro I was so excited for the back to back red socks grand slam
The 4 players Atlanta hired were the ones who brought the braves a championship, that is amazing.
you know this postseason was legendary when a walk off homer to win the wild card game is the 10th best moment
i’m surprised you did not put the red sox’ grand slams in this video
BRAVES 2021 WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!
Love my Braves. Can’t wait till next year!
Jorge Soler hits this one into the Soler System....
Missed opportunity on that call haha
6 is just a pain to watch
Freddie was like “shhh… Ima just put the winning World Series game ball in my back pocket”
Lol yesss
Braves had clutch bats and clutch pitching to stop a offense props Supa hott
Matzek’s 3 Ks against the Dodgers in game 6 was the single best performance / moment
as a dodgers fan, this stung but obviously not as much as we won last season, but hey, losing to the eventual champions, (yeah watching joc win again was hard), but it was a good effort, congrats braves and hey lets hope for this season to FINALLY happen
Altuve’s home run tied up the game right before Correa to me that was more important
Another amazing post season
Everyone showed up besides the Yankees
Good job everyone! (except the Yankees)
The giants had an amazing Cinderella run that season and I always like to think on how far they woulda got had something else happened
Had to fast forward through #6 😞 not even a giants fan lol just hurts to see
That shouldn't even be on the list. Put the Red Sox's grand slams instead.
Atlanta surprised the baseball world taking it all. I didn't think they would beat the Dodgers and of course I was rooting for the Astros. Making contact makes a difference and the Astros weren't doing that. Congrats to ATL. I think the WS was a great match. Took me back to the days when the Astros were in the NL and would face them all the time.
On a side note, one play that should be there is the "Strike em out, throw em out" double play, Astros v Red Sox. It could replace a couple of these plays.
I love #5 :)
But I also like the braves
I'm not a giants fan nor am I a dodgers fan but that check swing was a BS call. His bat never crossed the plain
Hate when these lists put the entire winning game or the last play as number 1 like cmon man that’s cheap, this gotta be about the best plays/moments not a whole game.
All that was needed was show Soler's 3-run moonshot and Swanson's 2-run HR, because after that the Braves could just go on cruise control
Exactly. Some of these weren't even moments,
@@theman1412 my thoughts exactly!
I was at the game with Riley’s walkoff vs LA i chanted MVP everytime he came to bat and in the 6th or 7th he struck out & a dodger fan behind me said “that’s your MVP” and then he did this in his next at bat so i turned around and said “thats my fucking MVP”
That NLDS ending in SF was some straight bullshit. Dude wasn’t even close to going. They probably wouldn’t have won either way it’s just a shitty way to end someone’s season.
Astros fan here and if we had to lose I am glad we lost to the Braves. ⚾️
The fact that there were two teams from the South making MLB and the MSM cry is priceless…🤩
Freemans hit was SOLID 😧
Cardinals were the hottest team going into the 1st game of the playoffs. Dodgers cooled them off quickly. 😤
Great video! Go Braves!
1st one still hurts
happy for wash
as a jays fan my favourite was Keirmaier’s double😂
