- Just so you know the most career defining hits for certain players aren’t always their most clutch hits. Some of them are but a lot of them are huge milestones.

I gotta say, torii hunter going over the wall made big papi's grand slam 10 times more exciting
As a tigers fan it still breaks my heart to this day
That series was so full of grit from both teams. Torii put his body on the line to try and make the play.
Still one of my favorite playoff series of all time.
Not to mention the cop showing his excitement too
He probably could’ve gotten there if Ortiz didn’t hit a rocket
Bro Chris Davis was a 50+ hr hitter, got a massive contract, then forgot how to play baseball
TheSword1235 On God he did!!! SMH
We never catch a break.
like the last oriole to hit 50.
look up what happened to him it’s pretty crazy. he took pills for his mental health and adhd and the league added it to the list of banned substances so he couldn’t take it anymore then he sure turned into THE worst hitter in the league. i fell bad for him yet again i remember he’s making BANK for going 0-54
Same thing happened to Brady Anderson
it was amazing seeing ichro getting hit number 3000 just based on fact that he came to the majors at 27 and put up 200+ plus hits his first decade from the very start.
Yep and screw what Pete Rose says about it. Ichiro is very deserving of it.
@Snickering Ginger I know what ichiro did was amazing and his record of 200+ his for a decade straight will probably never be broken
Hi papis defining moment was game 4 of 2004 ALCS
And Game 5 of 2004 ALCS, lol
As a yanks fan, I have to agree... those Homer’s he hit in those games brought the Sox back from the dead, and led them to the greatest comeback in playoff history, and the WS title
@Montana Roots this is true. I was born in a supposed millennial year, but I'm old and not in my twenties, so i've been watching sports for 30 years and see that all the time. History gets ignored. It happens in all sports conversations with younger people.
Game 4 yep. to hit roberts in.
Cokedlr that was Mueller that knocked Roberts in. Ortiz hit the HR that won it Game 4 then a single that scored Damon in game 5
Great package, but was disappointed that Mike Piazza's home run for the New York Mets in the first game after 9/11 didn't make the list.
That one is always left out in compilation videos
It wasn't "career defining"
May not of been a milestone hit, but many New Yorkers will reply that is the one Mike Piazza hit that defined his time as a New York Met.
Perhaps among the most iconic home runs of baseball history. One can't talk about Piazza's career without it.
Rick's Travelogue because it is Mike Piazza
I didn’t realize all career defining “hits” were homers minus Ichiro’s 3,000th hit. When I think career defining hits, I think Luis Gonzalez’s walk-off base hit in the World Series or Jeter’s walk-off base hit on the last at-bat of his career. Not saying a lot of these aren’t magical in this video, they are. But, home runs do NOT always define careers, legendary careers at that. I like the long ball, but some of the most magical hits ever are gap shots, bleeders, or clutch base hits. I don’t care what anyone says.
joe carter. thats all
I agree
Definitely agree
Nick Ruble someone that agrees thankyou
Endy Chavez's drag bunt is one of my favorite base hits of all time.
Those people just casually ran on the field for Hank Aaron’s homer😂😂
Back in the day it wasn’t uncommon, especially after pennant clinching games. Today they’d get tasered lol
Well I mean this poor guy was getting death threats for being a black man about to beat Babe Ruth's record. Was during a time just like now where racism was running rampant so this moment was bigger than baseball my friend
@@ElectrikNYCfunK
pfp matches this comment lol
Hank was like get off me
@@alexyerkey3141 the 2 people who were high school students at the time said years later they got arrested for that www.google.com/amp/s/fanbuzz.com/mlb/hank-aaron-715/amp/
“Jeters walk-off bomb” *barley gets over 314 sign*
Bobby Cushing I thought the same thing😂
Bobby C honestly do you write your own material bc you should be up there with dave chappelle by now.
Damn ur probably in below grade ela because u spelled barely wrong lol
Jeter's moment is that kid catching the ball 4 feet over the fence.
To be fair, it was opposite field.
Ah that adrenaline and excitement only Joe Buck can bring.
Ws needs vasgersian
joe buck is not even that bad anymore he just WAS terrible. Now he's personally one of my favorite announcers in baseball. There's a huge difference now than what joe was
boywhoharnessedthewind
Ok you’re high
boywhoharnessedthewind yeah he’s gotten a lot better
@@wm_9640 not every super bowl. Fortunately. But he will have this one.
Touch 'em all, Joe, you'll never hit a bigger home run in your life!
BAUTISTA WITH A DRIVE, DEEP LEFT FIELD, NO DOUBT ABOUT IT!!!!
High drive, into right, back at the wall, it is GONE! Grand slam Montero! Game one hero! (2016 NLCS)
Strike three, and this one’s in the books, folks. (Louisville Colonels losing for the 26th consecutive game in 1889.)
Ive watched the bat flip so many times i dont need to watch it anymore. I can replay it in my mind
@@BlueJaysForever-zb3ty too bad they got beat by the royals 😂😂😂
David freese bottom of the 9th 2 strikes 2 outs down in score with people on base then he hits a triple? Then a walk off next at bat? Where is it?
Also where is Jose Bautista’s iconic bat flip 3 run homer at
Kade Hicklin or Travis Ishikawas walk off to win the pennant
Freese for sure. You could also put lance berkman in the same game to tie it..
As a Rangers fan, please fuck off.
@@Gabagool93 lmao
and Nelson Cruz making the worst defensive error possible giving up a 3 base error to lose the entire world series for the rangers, dammit why didn't they sub in an actual outfielder.
Buster Posey’s grand slam against the Reds in the 2012 NLDS Game 5 was more significant.
Scott Piper Definitely
Absolutely
Certainly
As a reds fan I concur 😔
Absolute fact. Biggest shot of his life and saved the giants postseason run
Ben Zobrist’s double in extra innings 2016 World Series?
Hell, Ross' bomb off Miller too
3 or 4 homers from that series should've been in the video
Or José Bautista’s bat flip.
Zobrist had some huge hits for the Royals in 2015 WS too
you should do irrelevant players known for one incredible play, like DeWayne Wise saving Mark Buehrle's perfect game. Keep up the good work!
Like Fransisco cabrera's 1992 game winning single in game 7 of the NLCS.. I second this
Travis Ishikawa three-run bomb in the NLCS
Charlie Hall Joe Carter’s WS walkoff
Terry Treger Joe Carter had over 300 homeruns was a repeat all-star. Not irrelevant.
dave roberts stolen base
That homer by Frank Thomas just shows how strong he is. Just flicks the bat head at the ball trying to make contact and avoid striking out, and he sends the ball twenty rows deep.
Please make a part two you left out some big ones
David freese game 6
Mike Piazza home run the day after 9/11
Joe carter to win World Series
Bautista vs Texas
Mark McGwire record breaking homer
Stanton’s home run deep into marlins stadium
Tyler Naisin inside the Parker
Kirk Gibson
Posey’s grand slam in 2012 nlds
Ok
@@WesleyAPEX Also Luis Gonzales walkoff single in 2001 WS Game 7.
Edgar Martinez game 5 double against the Yankees, 1995.
Ishikawa’s 2014 NLCS walkoff?
J4YB1RD I’m a cardinals fan so I don’t like mentioning that but you’re right
Dear God Frank Thomas is HUGE
He's called The Big Hurt for a reason
Ajneufeld762...Imagine getting in a fist fight w/ him?! lol...One solid punch & you'll probably be in a coma!
ajneufeld762 you mean he’s THICC
@@jadeng.s.2549 get out
The Memer No Thanks
Didn't see Kirk Gibson's WS home run, but a good video nonetheless.
If that HR wasn't "career defining" then idk what is...
One of the best HRs in MLB history.
I think it was a very good moment but it wasn’t career defining by this point he was already a older player and just left his team he was memorable for career defining would be a big historical moment or like ichiro hiting 3,000
Right.. When I think of a career defining hit that and Bobby Thompson are it.
Kirk Gibson WS home run? Which one? In back to back plate appearances, he hit two game winning home runs in the World Series. That is career defining.
cdjhyoung it’s the one HR that everyone remembers him for. Walk off, pinch hit HR, when he could barely even walk. Everyone watching, including the pitcher! knew that the only way Gibson was going to get a hit was to hit it out of the park. And he did. And won the game in the process.
As good as Big Papi was, with the bases loaded I would of walked him up 4 runs in the bottom of the 8th.... i don't care who's up next
GamerHart it’s funny cuz he was shut down that whole series up until that home run.
Thats what im thinking.
7:15 I thought for a sec that noise was it hitting off his head than realized this isn’t a cartoon it’s real lol.
3:35 that was a great game though. Gotta respect both teams for the hard-fought game, but as a Reds fan, I have to respect Posey’s bomb as well.
I remember that home run hit by Frank Thomas like it yesterday...It's so depressing to think that it's going on 12 years since that moment...God, I miss both the Big Hurt & Chipper Jones
2:50 oh how the mighty have fallen
“Lindor with a swing and a drive, and it’s goooooone, Santa Maria “
1:13 wow joe buck is the most boring announcer ever
I'd say worst ever. It's only topped by when he's paired with Troy Aikman. The stupid from those two is so thick you could cut it with a knife.
He's a Cards fan.. And Beltre "career defining home run" is in a World Series loss... 🤔
Sandman
Joe Suck
He had an infection in his vocal chords throughout the entirety of the 2011 World Series. If you think you can do better whilst having a vocal chord infection, take the mic and show everyone. Also, how can he be the most boring announcer ever? You dig through the video to find a call where he is not 100% and he is somewhat boring, and yet you don't acknowledge the FIRST CLIP in this video right before it, the David Ortiz grand slam where he does get excited, or his call of Rajai Davis' HR at 5:49. If you think Joe Buck's call of the Ortiz grand slam or Rajai Davis' game tying HR was boring, you must be either delusional or deaf.
For Chris Davis it should’ve been the hit breaking his hitless streak
What about Davis freeze in the 2011 World Series ever sense that every time he is batting against the cardinals and n St. Louis he gets a standing ovation
David Freese walk off in game 6 or tying the game in the 9th
Cardinalsfan 2005 yes sir
as a rangers fan, i was so heartbroken
Damn
Had to start with the grand slam. As a Tigers fan this broke my heart.
If I remember right. That closer lost us alot of games.
He sure did
@@tubbymcfatfuk202 if they had a competent closer back then they probably would have won at least one WS. benoit had 11 blown saves in 28 games. valverde was terrible during their WS run, too. the tigers just never put it together when it mattered most.
You know it’s a banger vid when the first clip gives you *chills*
Man how the hell do you find all these clips and assemble them so quickly, impressive
Since today we have two tie breakers why not after the highlights make a video of 163 games or tie braking games
I don't think they'd allow rape on TH-cam (1995 game 163 between Mariners and Angels).
Hey, yeah, where's Piazza's post-9/11 home run? Feel like that's a pretty big one.
You should consider making not just career defining hit but career defining playes. So you could have dewayne wise's perfect game saving homerun robbery
Ain't no doubt in my mind that The Big Hurt is the "home run king" !!!
We’re those fans running congratulating hank for 715
Yes, I'm pretty sure.
Hmm.... I wonder how Chris Davis did this year. Oh yeah, how could I forget?
I thought Khris Davis did good. Sorry wrong one ha
Its only one bad year. He'll be back next year
cringe
Sominboy27 yea my boi Chris Davis and mark trumbo world champions 2019-2025
@@sominboy2757 how's that going
As a big-time Red Sox fan, I greatly appreciate the video starting off with "Big Papi" hitting that granny against Detroit in the 2013 playoffs. Also, considering that Ichiro never started playing in the Major Leagues until he was 27, missing at least five prime years if not more. Had he come into the league sooner, there's no doubt WHATSOEVER that he would've challenged Pete Rose for most career hits!!!
Big Papi is such a legend. You could've said his clutch moments during the '4 days in October' series and you would've also been correct.
Omg cubs lost this is so sad alexa play go cubs go
Cubs lost im happy
CHIPPER JONES!!! my most favorite player of all time lol 6:20
Larry?
This is a good collection. I would like to see Paul Konerko hitting a grand slam in the 2005 world series. They built a statue of him based on that hit. Clearly a career defining moment for him.
Nice compilation, a couple other possibilities:
Kirby Puckett, '91 WS
Ozzie Smith, '85 NLCS
Rick Monday, '81 NLCS
Bill Mazeroski, '60 WS
Bucky Dent, '78 vs Red Sox
Chris Burke, '05 NLDS
Sad to see Adrian Beltre being retired (I’m a Cubs fan)
at least he had two career defining moments!!
He is a legend and always will be
1:26 Nolan Ryan the great!! You should do a video of the last pitches of all 7 of his no hitters! His whole career was nearly a highlight reel!
The fight was the best
Ichiro's single season record hit shouldve been his career defining moment
The cop that celebrated Ortiz home run instead of helping hunter will always be hilarious
Relief pitchers batting
Is there a Best bat flips video?
I don’t think I’ve done that yet believe it or not
WesleyAPEX ill be waiting for that video
TeeJay LPGD Jose Bautista Number 1, Change my mind
@@htxthewild5553 he is the first person I think of when I hear of bat flips
TeeJay LPGD his bat flip can’t be matched
That Posey walk-off should be the grand slam he hit in Cincinnati of Latos instead
Posey’s defining hit was his 2012 NLDS game 5 grand slam on the road to bring the team from a 2-0 series deficit to the gm 5 win
ha ha Ha ha ha for all you Yankees fans out here
remember the Luis Gonzalez walk off
HAHA!! one of my favorite moments in history
Joey Gallo shows off his power
Another great video, bro! When are you going to plan a fan meet up/happy hour so your local fans can meet you?
I’m going to the NHRA on October 5th. Anyone there can say hi
3:59 Adam Dunn became a dad that day
I didnt see luis gonzalez walk off single in game 7 in 01 WS.
N9 tales cause nobody is trying to see some shitty lucky blooper
@@ProjectilePro Salty Yankees fan
Longest opposite field homeruns please
Posey's was the grandslam off Matt Latos in game 5 of the 2012 playoffs. With the history between Latos and the Giants and the fact that it put the nail in the coffin of a great comeback in that series, that's his big moment imo.
5:48 I remember when this homer made me cry
You had the last laugh though
Can you do Phil Hughes running from the bullpen please?
De Santa’s home boy David Robertson not Phil Hughes
I hope there is a part two because you missed Ben Zobrist when he won the 2016 World Series with his hit btw I’m a cubs fan
1:40. But the D-backs had the last laugh.
Arod during the 2009 playoffs was a beast. Definitely had his career defining hits during that run
Magglios walk off in the 06 alds is missing. Tiger haters!
I don’t hate any team. I made a video just on Miggy
Maglios wouldn’t be in because he is not going to be a big name guy and they wasn’t the only big thing he’s done in his career but yes I agree I is at least up there for good moments
Career defining hits, and the thumbnail shows Frank Thomas as...a Blue Jay? Da Fuq?
He hit his 500th home run as a Jay not White Sox
@@WesleyAPEX Ya 500 club is huge accomplishment.
Where is Scooter Gennett 4th Home Runs in the June game against the Cardinals where he had 4 Home Runs and that last one was incredible
Frank Thomas...all those orange jerseys in the stands...that was my youth baseball program at the game. Almost caught the homerun. I remember Thomas got tossed in this game too.
Small players hitting bombs
Basically Jose Altuve and Jose Ramirez compilation
And Dustin Pedroia
Ozzie Albies
Those back to back World Series appearances are so hard to look back on as a rangers fan 😭😭
My dad and I live in Southern Cali but are diehard Red Sox fans. We got to go to Big Papi’s grand slam. We sat sorta near first base. I remember how sad and boring it was. Bot 8 and down by 4. The whole park was absolutely electric in a second. It’s one feeling watching it but it’s another being there. My dad and I also went back the next day to get merch on Yawkey Way and ran into a few interviewers, so we were able to get in the paper and talk about it.
Geez how many great amazing videos can u make it’s unbelievable
OMG the end music made me think my computer was about to explode.
Best idea in a while by any mlb channel. this was sick
As a Giants fan Buster Posey's biggest hit was either his grand slam in game 5 of 2012 NLDS against the Reds. Or it was his 2 run homerun vs the Tigers in game 4 of the 2012 World Series.
All these legends....and Chris Davis
Need a whole video by itself just for Big Papi
Rajai Davis at 5:50 was one of the most crazy home runs ive ever seen
Bill Mazeroski game 7, Ruth´s called shot, Fisk´s game 6, Ozzie Smith game 5, Pete Rose´ record breaker, etc
I say Posey's grand slam in the NLDS was bigger, but that 17 inning game was nuts too.
Chris Davis career defining moment should’ve been when he broke the strikeout record
Seems more like a career-defining home runs list. On that note, I disagree with placing Posey’s 17th inning homer in a regular season game against the Reds. I’d opt for his grand slam against the same team in game 5 of the 2012 NLDS. A series-winning homer, in an MVP-winning campaign, in a year his team won the WS.
Also, disappointed by the lack of Mets love. Piazza and Wright come to mind here.
But still, a good list, and much love to your channel for putting this together.
That David Ortiz moment is great, but either one of his walk-offs to keep Boston alive in the 2004 ALCS probably rank higher for Red Sox fans. I say this as a Braves fan that stayed up to watch that crazy comeback.
are you telling me big papi hit that grand slam 6 years ago!? time flies by too fast
John Macdonald's Father's Day home run after he lost his dad always gets me. Is there a heartfelt moments compilation?
nice work on the baseball vids keep em coming i love them its the only thing i watch on your channel
Edgar Martinez Game 5 1995 ALDS walkoff double, aka (to Seattle fans) The Double.
If the MLB lasts a thousand years, Chris Davis will still be on an island as the only player to hit 50 homers & 50 at-bats w/o a hit. Bless his heart.
Ortiz has so many it’s hard to narrow it down to one but I think the 2004 NLCS was def his finest.
Lmao. I love how the police officer is cheering on the grand slam coming right at him
I was surprised to see Chipper Jones. People tend to forget him in highlight videos.
The Posey hit has to be his grand slam in game 5 of the 2012 NLDS against Mat Latos. His MVP year and Latos was well hated by the Giants and fans.
Buster Poseys career defining hit was a walk off HR in May, vs the Reds, last year. Riiiiiiiight.....
Pretty obscure, but journeyman Chris Denorfia taking Chapman deep, dead center, first pitch, 100mph for the 2-1 walk off had to be the greatest hit of his life. Just magnificent.
0:04 I’m so glad i was asleep when this happened....
Surprised you don't have Bautista bat flip. Was just reading on MLB.com or one of their sources the other day that was one of the biggest/popular HRs in MLB history and certainly defined Bautista's career even over him hitting the 50 hr club mark years before. Or Joe carters walk off world series shot, that was huge too.
It’s a crime that Big Sexy’s home run isn’t in here
You left out Odor punching Bautista's punk ass. That was a solid, career-defining hit.
Rajais tying homerun. Pure happiness followed by pure heartbreak
7:07 the true hit king
