The one where you said I’m not having that pitch was a knuckleball. They are very hard to hit because they move unpredictably, but sometimes they don’t move at all. That’s when they get blasted like that.
The first time a World Series was played in November was in 2001... Something happened in September that year and baseball stopped for a week and a half. When they resumed, they just picked up where they left off. So everything was a week and a half later than originally scheduled.
@@LiveFromThePorcelainPalace fair enough. Sorry to hear that. Thought you were being tongue in cheek instead of just starting off with “September that year baseball paused..” without the “something happened” that we all know what you meant anyway. 🍻
I was in the crowd for one of those, David Ortiz in 2004. Note that the Ozzie Smith homer ("Go crazy folks, go crazy") was very unexpected, as Smith hit zero to 3 homers all of his 19 regular seasons except for 1985 when he hit 6. Smith was an absolute WIZARD at shortstop defensively but a very light hitter typically.
13:03 was the 2003 ALCS, Game 7, Red Sox at the old Yankee Stadium, the late Tim Wakefield threw a knuckleball to Aaron Boone, today's Yankees manager.
"touch em all joe. You’ll never hit a bigger homerun in your life". The most iconic call in Toronto sports history. Always get goosebumps whenever I hear that.
The latest game ended at 4:48am, Padres at Phillies in July of 1993. That was due to a doubleheader and multiple rain delays. The 2nd game started at 1:30am & then went into extra innings! The stadium had 60k fans at 4pm but only around a thousand stayed. Around 2/3am, Veterans Stadium let people come in after the bar & nightclubs for free. You actually heard all the Phillies fans during the broadcast (there’s a mini documentary on it & the full game on TH-cam) & were typical Philly being Philly. The Phantic was entertaining throughout as well! 😂
The World Series used to be in October, but that was before they added so many rounds of playoffs. Reggie Jackson, the hero of several World Series with the A's and the Yankees, was called "Mr. October." At 11:00, it's game 6 of the 1975 World Series between the Reds and the Red Sox, still widely regarded as one of the greatest games ever played. At 12:49, the pitcher was knuckleballer Tim Wakefield. A knuckleball has to be thrown slowly with little to no spin to work. When thrown properly, a knuckleball will break unpredictably on its way to the plate, but if it's too fast, or if it has even a small amount of spin, it will go in a straight line and be as hittable as a batting-practice fastball. At 15:17, it's the first game of the 1988 World Series between the Dodgers and the A's. The pitcher is Dennis Eckersley, the best reliever in baseball at the time. He's the guy who created the term "walk off". The batter is Kirk Gibson, who was injured so badly he could barely walk. Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda took a big risk sending in Gibson as a pinch hitter. He was hobbling so badly that if he'd hit a line drive into the outfield he still might have been thrown out at first base. Gibson did the only thing he could that would help his team. It was his only at-bat of the Series. If a batter hits a home run but fails to touch one of the bases, he can be called out on appeal after the play is over. The defensive pitcher must toe the pitching rubber while holding the ball, then throw to the base that the runner missed. The fielder then tags the base, the runner is called out, and the run doesn't count.
That pitch you weren't having was a Knuckleball. Tim Wakefield was a knuckleball pitcher and they are very very slow pitches but when thrown correctly hard to hit....and harder to catch...Bob Uecker, who used to be an average catcher but is an amazing radio broadcaster (he was the broadcaster in movie Major League) said the best way to catch a knuckleball is to wait for it stop rolling and then pick it up.
Every little boy in the backyard imagines this exact scenario at some point. Yankee stadium bottom of the ninth 2 out game 7 of the world series bases loaded, and they are the one hitting the walk of grand slam to win the world series.
That 18th-inning home run at 4:48 was a playoff game from 2005. My Dad turned it on at night when the Astros were down 6-1 in the 8th inning and let my brother and I stay up late to watch the end because he thought it was almost over. The Astros tied it up, and it went to the 18th inning, but my Dad was a man of his word and let us stay up to watch the entire thing
On Gibson's HR 15:37 you can see a car in the parking lot slamming its brakes with the driver just realizing he missed witnessing one of the great moments in World Series history. You know someone in that car is yelling "YOU JUST HAD TO LEAVE EARLY!"
That pitch from Tim Wakefield on the Red Sox to New York was a knuckleballer. It is a slow pitch that causes the ball to make a lot of movement. Wakefield was known as the best and one of the last true great knuckleballers. He passed away from cancer earlier this year and a few months later, his wife passed away from cancer. Very sad. He is revered in Boston and spent much of his retirement raising money for charities.
So you actually can’t hit a walkoff as an away player. Home team always bats last in the bottom half of the inning if they are losing. Best you can do is hit a go-ahead home run in the top half of the inning and hope your pitching can preserve the lead in the bottom half.
I do wish they would have included the David Ortiz home run, where the outfielder flips over the outfield fence, landing in the bullpen where the ball landed, and a police officer, in the bullpen raises his arms in victory. It’s one of the great walk off home runs of this century.
16:30 It _is_ possible to have a home run invalidated and the batter out, if the batter does not touch all the bases. What happens next is the defensive team gets another ball and tags the base that wasn't touched, and I'm pretty sure this also applies to walk-off home runs as well. This is extremely rare because usually the batter's teammates and coaches will be making sure the batter tags all the bases in order, and they will scream at him if he misses one. Missing a base on a home run is considered beyond sloppy base running in MLB; I've watched Shohei Ohtani stop between first and second base, turn around and tag first, because he wanted to make sure and he spent a little too much time admiring a home run. I think that if the batter wants to fix his error but touched the next base out of order, he has to touch that base again and go back in order until he touches the base he missed, then proceed as normal. I do know that if you run from first to second and step off, but it turns out to be a fly ball and you have to go back to first, you have to tag second again on your way back to first base. Shohei Ohtani got called out this year because he forgot to tag second on such a play.
The playoffs used to be all in October. Then MLB expanded the playoffs a few times and now it extends into November. Before Derek Jeter became Mr. November, Reggie Jackson was Mr. October
Up to 2001 The World Series was always in October and ended before the end of the month. However in 2001 the events of September 11th put a pause on the season and delayed the last weeks of the season. this pushed the WS in November. After that is when MLB started considering expanding the playoofs and then implementing it
It wasn’t too a game goes past the 12th inning but it has gone past the 20th a handful of times. Now, with the new rule change, the “ghost runner” (in extra innings, a runner is automatically at 2nd base) makes it easier for a team to score.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_professional_baseball_game I lived blocks from this stadium. Unfortunately, the Red Sox AAA affiliate moved to Worcester, MA and this stadium is now deserted. On the walls of the ramps to the stands was what they called "The Wall of Fame" which had murals of a lot of the famous ball players who stopped there on their way to Boston.
It's called a "walk off" hit because both teams "walk off the field, clean up and go home to their families." "Walk off" hits only happen in the 9th inning... or later (extra innings) and can only happen in the BOTTOM half of the inning (when the home team bats), ending the game.
The actual definition, per MLB. . . "The term walk-off was originally coined by pitcher Dennis Eckersley to describe game-ending home runs that were so deep, you didn't have to look at them as a pitcher. You just "walked off." Since then, the term has evolved to connote a situation where the game ends, with the losing team left to "walk off" the field in defeat."
That slow pitch was a knuckleball that "flutters" in the air. If thrown with too much speed, it won't flutter. It's very hard to hit, and catchers have a hard time catching them. The catcher will wear a bigger glove, to give them a better chance.
10:33 World Series starts late October and can extend if the games go to like 6 & 7, to early November. If this years go to game 6 & 7, it’s on November 1 & 2
The next to last home run in the video is Bill Mazeroski's walk off home run in Game 7 of the 1960 World Series between the Pirates and Yankees. The only walk off home run in Game 7 of the World Series ever. The Yankees outscored the Pirates 55-27 and lost that Series. The last clip is Joe Carter hitting a walk off home run in Game 6 of the 1993 World Series for the Blue Jays to repeat as champs. The last two clips are the only walk off home runs to win a World Series.
There's no time limit in MLB but with changes they made (the ghost runner rule in particular) most extra innings games don't go past the 12th inning or so nowadays. Still, there's theoretically no limit.
The Aaron Boone walk off was the 2003 ALCS vs. Boston. The very next highlight, the David Ortiz homer, was the very next year., and the beginning of the biggest meltdown in baseball history... And now Aaron Boone is the manager of the Yankees, and a lot of fans want him fired, especially if he loses tonight.
The World Series used to always over by the end of October however that year that Derek Jeter became Mr November was 2001 and MLB was on pause for a full week, especially in New York, after 9/11. It went back to normal after that for quite a few years however they more recently added extra wild card games so it's again pushed things so for instance this year the last two games, had it made it to game six and seven, would have been November 1st and 2nd.
I've watched so many of these type of videos and the last one is always Joe fuckin Carter. As a Phillies fan, that moment was the worst moment of my fandom. The Phils went from worst in '92 to first place in '93, a magical unexpected ride, they seemed destined to win the championship only to have Carter crank that ball over the left field wall...the rest is history. Bad enough your team loses, but to lose like that and realize you will never be able to bury the memory because it will be "talked" about forever. The internet was just beginning at this point so now not only is it talked about but I can actually relive the pain at a moments notice😂😅🙄😢😭🤢🤮🤬🤬🤬
The White Sox have always had the best commentators. They dont gaf lmao. “You can put it on the booooooaaard yyyyyessss”, theyd say the score and if the Sox were winning theyd say good guys are up if the other team was winning theyd say bad guys up, they arent afraid to call players names and yell at ppl on air lol. Theyre hilarious. My favorite is “WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!” 😂🤣😂🤣😂
That Jeter game in November was only because of 9-11....that was the first time it was played in November. A couple times recently it goes to November but they are trying to stop that. October baseball is what it's all about but now with expanded playoffs it can leak into November but that is not the ideal and NEVER how it used to be
14:25 Ozzie Smith (aka The Wizard) was not a power hitter, so him hitting a home run on one of the best relief pitchers in baseball was a shock at the time. 3 g_0cp
Pitchers are judged by wins and losses. Even when a pitcher wins, its always seen as a team effort. When a pitcher loses they receive all the blame for giving up runs.
You actually can't hit a walk off as an away player, the other team will always have a chance to bat after your team. And if it hits the foul pole, it is fair.
You guys crack me up if you’d go back after you stop the video you would get your answers most of the time also maybe pay closer attention to what the announcers are saying
You’ve gotta learn about the knuckleball… One of the most difficult pitches in all of baseball to throw, consistently… When it’s on, it’s almost impossible to hit. It’s an extremely unpredictable pitch, which is rarely even taught these days. It’s a specialty. Tim Wakefield (Rest In Peace) was one of the great knuckleball pictures.
13:19 That pitch was a Tim Wakefield knuckleball. RIP Tim Wakefield
If his knuckleball was dancing...completely unhittable
I miss knuckleballs
The one where you said I’m not having that pitch was a knuckleball. They are very hard to hit because they move unpredictably, but sometimes they don’t move at all. That’s when they get blasted like that.
They know
@ didn’t seem like it. I wasn’t being condescending. Are you them? I don’t need your opinion.
@@PHXNKVHXLICexactly they’ve watch enough world football (soccer) to know what a knuckle ball is. 😂 especially from a set piece
@@Pressplayboy did u watch this video or do u just comment. They literally said "what was that pitch, it looked like he said here just hit a homerun'
The Gibson one where he pumps his arm as he runs the bases is a great story in itself.

good to see my cubs on the list.
The Derek jeter year of “Mr. November” was 2001, the season was suspended a little bit following 9/11. That’s why the World Series was pushed a bit
Im related to Jim Thome down the line. Hes married to like a 5th cousin. Hes from Peoria, Illinois. About 90 mins away from me.
Thome is one of baseball's all-time good guys, for sure.

Green monster at Fenway is the name of the wall, and you do have to hit it over the wall for it to be a HR

Regarding November baseball…. The World Series only spills into November for Game 6s or 7s usually, so those games are usually a big frickin deal!

And if it hits the foul pole, it is fair.
You can't hit a walk off on the road. No matter what you do, the home team gets last at bats.
If you are the away team...you can't hit a walk off

it should say MLB walk off homers that get increasingly less epic
the longest american professional baseball game was in 1981… 33 innings… 32 innings on one day, 1 inning the next
