Luka, a balk is essentially when a pitcher makes an illegal motion in an attempt to deceive the batter or baserunners. Once the pitcher has decided whether he will throw towards home plate or to the base to pick off the runner, he must make one single action in either direction. He cannot fake to home then try to pick off the guy on first base, or vice versa. That rule gets INSANELY complicated, but essentially means if the pitcher tries to throw a fakeout, the runner is automatically awarded the next base.
I'll add to this. It is basically any motion that is not a part of the pitcher's normal wind-up.
@@BenMan8881 going by that understanding leads to many arbitrary calls, justified or not
@@nallymannebach7933 perhaps, but that's the rule as I know it. Only exception is a clear throw to a base to check the runner.

You can't just be up there and just doin' a balk like that.

1c. Let me start over
1c-a. The pitcher is not allowed to do a motion to the, uh, batter, that prohibits the batter from doing, you know, just trying to hit the ball. You can't do that.
1c-b. Once the pitcher is in the stretch, he can't be over here and say to the runner, like, "I'm gonna get ya! I'm gonna tag you out! You better watch your butt!" and then just be like he didn't even do that.
1c-b(1). Like, if you're about to pitch and then don't pitch, you have to still pitch. You cannot not pitch. Does that make any sense?
1c-b(2). You gotta be, throwing motion of the ball, and then, until you just throw it.
1c-b(2)-a. Okay, well, you can have the ball up here, like this, but then there's the balk you gotta think about.

Love your baseball videos!
I’m a lifelong baseball fan and this might be the most hype highlight video I’ve ever seen. Glad to see we have a fan across the pond.
the triple play at 16:00 happens because there are runners on 1st and 2nd base, with no out. So the guy makes the catch, thats the first out, then he steps on the base to get the guy on 2nd base out, and makes the tag to get the guy that ran from first base out. Thats the 3 outs. The runners on base were all running and if you catch the ball before it drops you have to go back, so the runners were already on the next base.
@M Detlef he asked how it happened because he only saw 2 of the outs, i clarified it for him
This is why baseball is still popular - it is all risk, nothing is EVER safe.
Unassisted triple play - catch the ball right off the bat (batter is out), step on the nearest base (runners have to return to their base on a fly out - runner forced out at base), tag the runner trying to come into the base you just tagged (runner is tagged out). You can the number of times this has happened in the last 150 years on your fingers - maybe even the fingers of one hand.
2:00 a little bit of context behind this play: It was game three of the 2013 world series that was tied 1-1. The winning run was actually tagged out at home, but the umps said the third baseman obstructed the runner by lifting his legs and tripping him. So they allowed it to be safe and the cardinals won. In the end, the call didn't matter because the red sox won the next three in a row to become world series champs.
An unassisted triple play: the rarest play in baseball--one man gets all three outs at the same time.
Triple play - infielder catches line drive for 1st out...steps on 2nd base when runner leaves without "tagging up" for 2nd out...tags 1st base runner advancing to 2nd since there was no force (base runner on 2nd was already out when he advanced without tagging up so the force was off) for 3rd out. It all happened "bang bang" as they say in baseball.
unassisted triple play, was one out for catching in the air, two outs for stepping on the base for a force out, and third out was tagging the other runner in the chest with the ball
You gotta remember that all 30 teams play 162 games per season (except this year), so it's impossible for you to have seen every single dramatic end to a game.
There are a 13 illegal moves a pitcher can do that constitute a balk. When a balk is called, all the runners on base are awarded one base. The illegal moves are as follows:
1. If a pitcher starts into his windup then stops.
2. If the pitcher makes a pick-off attempt with one or more foot on the rubber. (The rubber is the white rectangular thing where the pitchers stands to pitch)
3. If the ball slips out of the pitcher's hand while he's on the rubber.
4. If the pitcher touches his mouth while on the rubber.
5. If the pitcher throws a pitch with a fielder in foul ground
6. If the pitcher makes a pitch with both feet on the rubber.
7. If the pitcher attempts to make a pitch while off the rubber.
8. If the pitcher throws at the fielder and not the base during a pick-off attempt
9. If the pitcher fakes a throw to third then throws to first.
10. If the pitcher takes too long to make a pitch
11. Faking a pick-off attempt then throwing a pitch.
12. The pitcher stumbles while delivering the ball.
13. The pitcher attempts to make a fielding play while on the rubber when the ball is in play.
The unassisted triple play happened because there were 2 runners on base, it seems like they were both stealing on the pitch. The 2nd baseman caught the ball on the fly, touched 2nd base before the runner got back, and then he tagged the other runner who left first base. 3 outs by 1 player on the same play
I believe a former Yankees manager said, "It isn't over until it is over." Baseball games have changes in fortune in less than one inning...
You should see the "shot heard round the world" - when Bobby Thompson of the NY Giants hit a homer to win the NL pennant over the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1951.
Before you ask, no, nobody knows what a balk is. It's like offsides in soccer
A balk, pronounced as bock, is an illegal interruption in the pitchers delivery or an illegal movement on the mound to decieve the hitter. That would include falling down, stepping with the wrong foot, an illegal pickoff, interrupting forward movement when pitching the ball, twitching, or starting and then stopping your delivery of the ball.
In the case of the unassisted triple play, he got the first out by catching the ball, the second out by stepping on second base (which was occupied and who's runner was in between second and third), and the third by tagging the runner from first who had run from first to second during the pitchers delivery of the ball home. This only happened because the offensive (batting) teams manager had called for a play called a hit and run, which means as soon as the pitcher starts his delivery the guy on base starts stealing and the batter tries his utmost to hit that ball to a gap or at least on the ground. The logic behind this is to give your runner a head start and (ironically) not ground into double plays in the infield/squeeze out an extra base on an occasion you would usually only be able to advance by one. The reason this led to a triple play is that the second baseman ran to the base to be there in case the batter missed and the catcher had a chance to throw out the runner stealing. Because he was there he was able to catch a line drive right up the middle. The hit and run forces the infielder who is in charge of covering second in the case of a steal (second baseman or shortstop, depending on if its a right or left-handed batter) to move and spots where the ball would usually be fielded cleanly for an out vs. where they get through as hits are reversed. That's why you see what would usually be a perfect hit (line-drive up the middle) cost their team the game when seconds prior they had no outs and runners in scoring position.
Shout out luka for the great vids
Welcome to baseball. There’s a ton of games where yes can get boring but when baseball goes off...IT GOES OFF!
So a balk is when the pitcher starts his motion and then stops mid way in his windup. the runners on base all get to advance
But just to clarify for his sake if there are no runners on base nothing happens
@@brewii4991 he doesn't put down his feet.
I’ve been watching this sport for 40 years and I still have no clue what the Rangers pitcher did against the Dodgers.
At 8:45
Good to see you back Luka!
9:00
Yeah, when gearing up to pitch, the pitcher has to either:
Decide to pitch to home plate
Or
Decide to throw to a base that a runner is attempting to steal
If he starts to do one, but then changes to do the other, it’s called a balk. The rule is in place to prevent pitchers from trying to fake out runners and batters, which wouldn’t be fair, as the runners and batter would have no way of knowing what the pitcher is about to do. The ball is pronounced dead and all runners advance one base. If there is a runner on third base, he takes home and scores a run. That’s how a few of these balks led to winning the game.
When a batter hits the ball and it is caught in midair, any runners on base have to return to the last safe base they held. This is called "tagging up". If the fielder can throw the ball to the base before the runner tags up then the runner is out. Unassisted triple plays happen when there are runners on first and second base and then the second baseman or shortstop catches a line drive. From there the fielder touches second base before the lead runner can return and then he tags the other runner coming from first base.
Balks aren't always on purpose. In fact, i think they're almost always on accident. Basically, there's certain rules that pitchers can't make certain movements once they come "set" and are ready to make the pitch. Tripping, twitching, or other movements that aren't exactly intentional are balks once the pitcher is set. Sometimes, the pitcher does make certain movements that are intended to fool a baserunner but more often than not it's just a mistake by a pitcher.
I'll try to explain the triple play but it's confusing. The first out was because the ball was caught so the batter was out. If a runner wants to advance a base when a ball is caught you can't start running until the ball is caught. The runner that was on second had started running before it was caught since he thought it would be a hit, so the fielder who caught the ball just had to tag the base he started from to get him out. Then he just tagged the runner from first base trying to go to second. One guy made all 3 outs.
That one showing Joe Carter hitting the home run to win the World Series for the Toronto Blue Jays in 1993 is only the second time ever the final series has ever ended like that. It hasn't ended that way since then. As a Canadian baseball fan, it brings back great memories.
i love the call "Touch em all Joe! "
You are misunderstanding what is happening at 12:58 - The Marlins pitcher has a no-hitter going but Miami has NO RUNS. So his no hitter could have been for nothing. Thankfuly his team comes through and scores to win the game.
exactly lol, Luka needs to pay more attention to the scoreboard and the jerseys of the teams when watching these clips.
SanFranFan30 I don’t know that he would always appreciate the significance of such a thing. It takes time.
Yeah but he was technically correct when he said the run caused the no hitter (or something like that). Not a situation one sees very often...
@@QBAN2010 Yes, I think he did get what was going on, he just said it in an awkward way.
It would have been a no hitter anyway. He walked the batter.
There have only been 15 unassisted triple plays in the history of baseball (where one player makes all 3 outs). It has only happened twice to end the game. The one here in 2009 and once in 1927. To put that in context, there have been over 200,000 games of MLB baseball played since the league formed.
A triple play is when the defense gets three batters out at the same time. When this happens, obviously, that's three outs and the inning is over. An unassisted triple play is a fielder turns a triple play unassisted, as the name implies. If you'll look, the fielder caught the ball, meaning that the batter runner is automatically out. When the ball was hit, the runner at second immediately broke for third, but when the ball was caught, the runner was obliged to run back to second. The fielder tagged the bag before he was able to do that, meaning that that runner was out. Then he tagged the runner who was running to second from first, and that was three outs. Inning over.
An unassisted triple play is a very rare thing. It's happened less than 25 times in the 149-year history of the game. It's only happened once in the World Series. (1920, Bill Wambagass.)
A Balk is when a pitcher gets set (They pause before throwing the ball) and resets their motion before throwing the ball without stepping off the rubber
That Carter home run is the only walk-off to win a world series ever.
what? no, its not, at all, off the top of my head, 1912, 1960, 1991, 1997, 2001 all ended in walk offs, 1960 was also a walk off home run
@@NothingifnotInconsistent I meant walk-off Home Run sorry
Triple plays very rare. Unassisted triple plays are even more rare. If the baserunner has another runner behind him, most often the batter who just put the ball in play, has no choice but to attempt to advance to the next base. That's how double plays are made. It's a force out at 2nd and the throw to 1st beats the batter who put it in play. If a baserunner is not forced to the base he is attempting to take then he must be tagged with the ball or glove with the ball in the glove. Most double plays involves 2 or 3 defensive players. Sometimes just 1 if it's a linedrive out and the runner gets tagged while off base. You better be careful while on base but you can't just always keep a foot on base if you wanna advance bases and score. Runners can steal bases as soon as the pitcher has committed to throw his pitch, then it's the catchers job to get the runner trying to steal. If pitchers were allowed to fake the pitch no runner would lead off the base or attempt to steal and hardly nobody would score and baseball would be more boring than soccer and hockey. Baseball is like chess in that so much strategy is involved in every pitch and play. Then it gets explosive when you least expect it. One player can win it or lose it so quickly. Routine ground balls get past the infielder or they go under his glove between his legs and its game over. The difference between a pop up and a homerun is less than half an inch. Batters have less than 1 second to decide to swing, then they gotta hit the ball. That's why hitting a MLB pitcher is the hardest thing to do in all these sports. It's a game of failure because if you succeed 28% of the time you're considered good. 280 average. If you succeed 32% for a 320 average you're considered great and will get into the hall of fame. That's only about 35 more hits per season if both players have 500 at bats. So all that being said, unassisted triple plays when 1 player makes all 3 outs off 1 hit ball is the absolute most rare thing in the sport. The greatest sport.
For the Alvarez play at home at 7:10, there's another video out there that breaks down the tag. While at first glance the catcher appears to make the tag, there's one particular angle that might indicate he missed the tag. It's not actually clear cut as crazy as it seems. After seeing the tag from different angles, I can't say the umpire missed the call.
A "balk" is when a pitcher is off the plate on the pitchers' mound, when he's about to throw his pitch. Runner(s) advance to the next base. No matter which base their on, or outs there are.
I can't remember the rest of the details of balking, and how it's labeled as a "balk".
Example: bases are loaded, 2 out, bottom of the 9th, home team is losing 6-5. Balk is called, and runners will advance, and game will be tied. Runners will be on 2nd, and 3rd base.
3:30 The way they all just stop and stare at the ball, omfg.
Thanks for reacting!😁
You should react to the worst ways to lose a baseball game next, to build on the theme of this video
You should react to weirdest NHL goals if you want more weirdness/chaos
2014 American League wild-card game unbelievable finish
2015 Preston Palmeiro vs Miami was another crazy ending in college baseball
7:30, they called a balk. Basically, if the pitcher makes an illegal move (the actual definition is more complicated than that) with runners on base, the batter-runner cannot be put out, and all base-runners are entitled (and required) to advance one base without liability to be put out.
For more information, look at the MLB Rulebook rule 6.02(a) on page 74 of the 2019 edition. Available for free with a google search.
Triple play, got a guy on first and second. Baserunners are off their bags at this point stealing (important) they would have had to have their feet on the bases when he caught that ball or get back to base before he tags them out. So he catches the ball to nic the batter, touches the bag to force out the runner stealing third, and tags out the runner stealing second. He could have also thrown the ball back to first, but that would involve another man on defense, making this way the unassisted triple play. Which, bar a couple of other similar instances, could only happen in this fashion
Super video!
I'm a little surprised not to see Bill Buckner's error on Mookie Wilson's roller in the 1986 World Series. That was one crazy ending.
6:30 I love how the player was looking around, like was that actually a triple play? Madness, you can play for 20 years and never see one of those, let alone be a part of one.
You have to watch Angel Pagan’s inside the park two run walk off home run. The craziest and best ending plus one of the greatest calls from an announcer I’ve ever heard.Please like so he can see!!!

2. Do not do a balk please.
Just for some context balks and inside the park home runs almost never happen in the sport so for one to happen to end a game is something that has only happened a hand full of times in the history of the sport, which is what makes these clips special
You need to watch the 2015 world series run by the KC royals. They had some crazy comebacks throughout the playoffs.
In the rangers vs dodgers game, what did the pitcher do to make the ump call a balk
I think it is just the way he moved his shoulders, almost a shimmy. I think once your set, all you can move is your head, until you start your pitch. I have seen pitchers checking over their sholder and move just slightly get called for it.
16:40 he got an unassisted triple play because he caught the ball, which meant the batter was out, he then touched second which got that runner out, and then he tagged the runner coming from first base, which got him out as well. Typically a triple play, which is very rare itself, is executed with multiple players on one team, but he did it unassisted (i.e all by himself), which is probably the rarest play in baseball. There have only been 15 in the 100+ year history of MLB, and his was to win the game, which including this instance, has only happened twice.
Just to clarify - if a ball is caught in the air for an out, the baserunner has to be back on their original base - if someone with the ball touches the base before they return to it, they are out. So, linedrive gets the batter out. There was a runner you hardly see in the clip on second who took off for third. So, the fielder stepped forward and stepped on second base, making the runner on second out. And the runner on first ran way too far and didn't stop quickly, so he was only a couple steps away and got tagged out between bases for the third out (the fielder could have tossed the ball to the first baseman, who tags first base, to get him out as well, but that would have made it an assisted triple play).
10:40 The best part about this play is that they go back and take a closer look; the ball DEFINITELY hit a bird. And yes, random animals are absolutely in play.
Now you see what happens when you hear the term "the baseball gods smile on you" or "the baseball gods are frowning on you"
Just means plays or actions that you never see in the big leagues.
you need to see randy johnson hitting a bird
16:15 So what happened there was the second basemen caught the ball, which got the batter out, stepped on second which got the player going from second to third out because the runner didn't tag up, and then finally tagged the player running from first to second to get all three outs. This is something that NEVER happens and the fact that a game ended with it is crazy. Triple players are hard to come by, but I'm pretty sure you can count the number of unassisted triple plays on one hand
It’s only been done 15 recorded times in the entire 151 year history of the mlb consisting of over 218,400+ games so it’s pretty insane for a game to end like that.
At 8:09, that's known as a balk. It's basically when the pitcher illegally stops his motion, after which every runner on base gets to advance to the next base. In this situation, because there was a runner on 3rd base, he got to go home and score the winning run. Also, at 13:07, the Marlins pitcher had a no-hitter through 9 innings, but it wasn't official because the Marlins hadn't scored a run. They scored in the bottom of the 9th to win and therefore make the no-hitter official. So they didn't lose it, they just had to do more to preserve it. One more thing, on the unassisted triple play, he caught the ball in the air for the first out, touched 2nd base for the second out (the runner on 2nd was forced to go back after the catch and didn't make it back in time), and tagged the runner from 1st for the third out.
I've seen one balk live in my lifetime.
I've seen one Grand Slam live.
I've seen one walk-off HR live.
I've also only been to 3 MLB games in my life - all Royals games.
(Oh, and the Royals are undefeated when I watch them.)
It's amazing what baseball can do when you don't expect it. My luck was unreal. In my first 4 games, I saw:
A balk...in the BOTTOM OF THE 9th WITH THE TYING RUN AT 3RD(!!)- my Yanks won the game in extra innings on a walkoff double
Derek Jeter hit an inside-the-park home run
and the Yanks put up 20 on the Red Sox at Fenway.
but...
It took me almost twelve years and probably 40-50 games to see a grand slam (Greg Bird in September 2018)- but I saw about six of them last year alone. Pretty much every game I went to had one!
Most recently, my first walkoff homer came in early September last year (leMahieu vs Oakland). It took 13 years to see it (my first game was in 2006).
I have seen two grand slams but no balks or walk offs. I did, however, see a pretty exciting play where the game tying run was thrown out at the plate to end the game
@@excellentbill69 I've seen two balks total. Aside from the one that tied the game above, I saw CC fall off the mound randomly and the ball go about halfway to the plate lol. I was also at the Rich Hill game ended by Mookie's catch that is displayed in this video. That was special.
luka wake up and stream the Lakers and trail blazers game
WTF THEY LEFT OUT GAME 6 OF THE 1986 WORLD SERIES...ITS ARGUABLY THE MOST FAMOUS PLAY IN BASEBALL HISTORY AND THEY LEFT IT OUT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Most balk are committed "unintentionally" or by mistake. But the act is always penalized by umpires even if it was unintentional.
Really, the Pine Tar incident should be at the top of the list. The game was done, then undone and completed like a month later.

People exist that don't like baseball. I can't fathom it.
People outside the us may find this odd, but the video at the 1:40 mark with the home run bouncing off the glove over the fence is a college team, not pro. Southern schools love their college baseball.

If you like crazy endings Luka, watch Keep the Faith: The Story of the 2004 Red Sox. It was the team that ended an 86 year championship drought with endless failure at the worst possible times.
The guy who tripped over the third basemen happened in the World Series, so yeah it's crazy there
And the pickoff was the very next game too!

your best video
6:45 Foolish Baseball has a great video on this play. It's called "Why the Worst Call in MLB History Might Have Been Correct"
7:53 A balk is an illegal move by a pitcher and results in the runners moving up or in this case, scoring.
When baseball started pitchers would do all sorts of crazy things to fool the batter, so the balk rule was created.The argument now is that the balk rule is so strict that some pitcher unintentionally balk.
You should check out sounders vs timbers rivalry by the mls channel
At 12:54 he had a no-hitter through 9 but the game was tied. In the bottom half of the inning they walked it off to GIVE him the no hitter. Your reaction seemed like they ended the no-hitter with that
To further explain just in case Luka reads:
The guy basically threw a no-hitter, since he pitched 9 innings without allowing a hit, which SHOULD result in a no hitter. However, the game was tied 0-0 meaning the game wasn't over, and you can't have a no hitter without the game ending. So, the pitcher's offense was able to score 1 run in the final half of the inning which ended the game and solidified his performance as a no-hitter. If the offense doesn't score a run, the game continues and the pitcher likely would've been taken out (because nobody ever pitches more than 9 innings in a game) and he technically wouldn't have gotten the no-hitter even though he pitched 9 no-hit innings.
@@Alex-kd5xc didn’t that happen to Rich Hill? I believe he threw a no-hitter but the Dodgers hadn’t scored any runs and he ended up losing it in extra innings. It was something strange like that but I don’t remember exactly
7:02 foolish baseball made a great video about this play called "the worst call in mlb history, why it might have been correct" or something like that
Great video, changed my mind

I'm surprised it wasn't included in this video. It was one of the wildest endings to a World Series game ever!
Just to be clear. The play at 13:25 wasn't brutal. The play saved the no-hitter, it didn't ruin the no hitter.

1c-a. The pitcher is not allowed to do a motion to the, uh, batter, that prohibits the batter from doing, you know, just trying to hit the ball. You can’t do that.
1c-b. Once the pitcher is in the stretch, he can’t be over here and say to the runner, like, “I’m gonna get ya! I’m gonna tag you out! You better watch your butt!” and then just be like he didn’t even do that.
1c-b(1). Like, if you’re about to pitch and then don’t pitch, you have to still pitch. You cannot not pitch. Does that make any sense?
1c-b(2). You gotta be, throwing motion of the ball, and then, until you just throw it.
1c-b(2)-a. Okay, well, you can have the ball up here, like this, but then there’s the balk you gotta think about.
1c-b(2)-b. Fairuza Balk hasn’t been in any movies in forever. I hope she wasn’t typecast as that racist lady in American History X.
1c-b(2)-b(i). Oh wait, she was in The Waterboy too! That would be even worse.
1c-b(2)-b(ii). “get in mah bellah” - Adam Water, “The Waterboy.” Haha, classic…
1c-b(3). Okay seriously though. A balk is when the pitcher makes a movement that, as determined by, when you do a move involving the baseball and field of
2) Do not do a balk please.
Honeslty its dope watching the evolution of you slowly starting to understand baseball. I also noticed you've been learn quite quick as of late
4:04 beautiful!!
6:50 The game was in the 19th inning
13:25 no, the team that won was throwing a no hitter.
Don’t feel bad, balk rules are complicated. Would you please react to Doc Ellis’ no hitter. It’s so crazy
And then Robin Williams stand up bit about Doc Ellis’ no hitter
React to Randy Johnson Career Highlights! They didn’t call him ‘The Big Unit’ for nothing! He was my favorite pitcher growing up.
That poor bird
@@davidorioli3870 Yeah that bird had reallllly bad timing. Or great for us lol.
Everyone just was disappointed you mentioned the bird first
@@DHforLife lol gatekeeping Randy Johnson
@@FireHawkISA nah, I meant everyone wanted to be the one to point it out to him.
So anyone who tells you they fully understand what does and doesn’t constitute a balk is lying, but basically the idea is that you can’t start your motion and not throw a pitch, including starting and stopping it
React to the Tatis unwritten rules video by Jomboy. It’s the biggest thing in baseball right now
I predict he is going to be VERY confused about why there was so much salt over this "unwritten rules" BS
7:00 This was nothing more than a blown call in the 19th inning before the days of replay review. If it happened again today, the Pirates would’ve challenged, the call would’ve been overturned, the runner would’ve been out and we would’ve been an out away from seeing inning number 20.
Doubt it. He misses the tag. The ump simply would have been vindicated.
Shaun S that _does_ sound familiar. Where can I get a better look at that?
There have only been 15 unassisted triple plays in the history of baseball.
React to UNC basketball championship redemption. Lost on a last second shot in 2016 and won the championship in 2017
Luka you should go back and revisit some of the older baseball videos you've reacted too now that you understand baseball better.
i dont know if youve watched it but theres a video on the last pitch of the world series every year for the last 25 years and it would be a good reaction. features tons of iconic moments and iconic commentary
as a mets fan, pain. all i know is pain
Need to react to game 163 Rockies vs Padres tiebreaker game
You should react to Deadball era game footage (1900-1920) it's the era when few runs were scored as the stadiums were so big
You need to check out either chipper jones or randy johnson. Chipper jones is my favorite player of all time because the braves are my favorite team. Randy johnson didnt play for the braves but hes my favorite pitcher of all time. Just ahead of greg maddux
A runner can only advance on a caught fly (or line drive) if they “tag up” (touch the base they were on, after the ball is caught, then advance). First and second base are occupied. On the hard hit, the guy on 2nd goes without tagging as he thinks it will get through. The ball is caught-batter out; 2nd base touched-man who was on 2nd out, and the man from first has to be tagged out with the ball as he is not required to advance once the batter is out by a caught ball
4:05 now the catcher David Ross is our manager ;)
David Bote's walk off ultimate grand slam is another good moment to react to. Link to a nice clip explaining how it happened: th-cam.com/video/5BN7wFT1tVg/w-d-xo.html or just search David Bote grand slam to see the game highlights.
u should react to Foolish Baseball's video on the Yankees vs Twins ALDS game
A suggestion I would make is watching and reacting to a game on Twitch with someone who knows baseball so that they’re able to explain things to you as they happen. Baseball is a very confusing sport that even people who have been watching it their whole lives can be confused, so having someone to explain things will definitely help.
Check out the Yankees twins game from July 23, 2019
Nationals brewers was better
Edit: the 15-14 game
Agreed
2:00 I was at that game! The one when the camera is shaking
The best part of seeing those Dodgers playes is listening to the great Vin Scully describing the moment.
