I’m not crying. There’s just a little Dustin here.

😂😂
Works on so many levels😂
If only you could put the heart and soul of Dustin Pedroia in every player in professional sports. He played the game the right way. He always busted his ass, whether is was a diving stop or a ground out to the pitcher, Pedroia never stopped hustling. He gave everything he had. I don’t think we’ll ever see another player his size as good as he was.
Altuve
The only active player I can think of that plays with Pedroia type hustle is Jarren Duran.
@@jesussanchez326 Wow you’re right. I totally forgot about Altuve.
Dustin Pedroia was my favorite player as a kid. I played 2B and I'm short, so he proved to me it was possible. I was also obsessed with the Red Sox. Great video! Prime Pedey was special.
Epitome of size not mattering
Fantastic video, never knew this game even existed or how dominant Pedroia was in it.
Just another day in Coors
Pedroia the Destroya
favorite player. Should make the hall, but won't until the vets committee elects him like Bill Mazeroski.
Yeah. Wont make the ballot due to not meeting requirements due to injury. I've talked to fans of many teams, everyone liked pedroia. Even stankee fans.
@@garygood6804what requirements? He had the 10+ years of service time required. He racked up just over 50 WAR in 14 seasons. That absolutely puts him as a borderline HoF candidate for the committee to consider.
I’m going to be a bitter fan here and say he had a fighting chance to be inducted had he not been taken out by Manny Machado with that ugly slide in 2018. He was slowing down a bit sure, but he definitely had enough in him to pad some of those stats and put himself up there in the 55+ WAR range.
@nomorefielders Luckily, Pedro Martinez, David Ortiz, and Theo Epstein all will likely be on one of the "era" committees that he could fall onto, along with Francona if he can stay alive for another 20-25 years for it to happen. He just needs that 5% in his first year so he has the credibility, and I'm fairly confident he can get that 5%. Maybe even 10% if the Hall elects a large number of people next year and Chase Utley gets a high first year percentage.
Likeability plays a large role in electing players and having an advocate fighting for you, something David Ortiz is very, very likely to be. And I agree, he never was going to be a first-ballot player, but if it weren't for that Manny Machado slide, I bet he has close to 60 WAR and maybe gets one more gold glove and mayyyybe even an all star nod in his final year. At the very least, we all could have given him the send-off he deserved like David Ortiz or Mariano Rivera got.
Pedroia was sooo freaking good in his prime.
Thank you for making this video. I barely see any love for my favorite player ever
We need to start the Dustin Pedroia renaissance
Summer Air from RCT3 is an unfortunately underutilized background track. Thank you for using it, more TH-camrs should. It’s passive and nostalgic and roller coasters pair so well with baseball thematically.
Yeah it was the first thing that came to my mind when doing the fade into the sunset.
best baseball TH-camr/musician in the game
Best Braves fan in the game
Congrats on 10K my dude! 🔥 Your hard work is paying off 🙌🏼
Thank you man, ditto
This is the kind of channel where the commercials at the beginning don’t even have to end for me to like the video
You’re doing amazing work keep it up
Thank you :)
As a lifelong die hard Yankees fan, Pedey was the only Red Sox player I have ever liked and rooted for outside of games against the Yanks. Such a likable dude.
The answer to his greatness is simple he said it himself: People always ask me if I wish I were bigger. I tell them no. I always wanted to be a miniature badass.
Bro when you do the postseason series, David Freese has to be first. Man had the greatest postseason run ever. He literally got a hit in every clutch situation presented to him except 1 (I believe Game 2 of the WS); the man hit like .575 in the entire playoffs); unreal.
So I play baseball 9 (really fun btw) and I customize the characters to be just like baseball greats attributes and all so I have Joe Mauer at catcher, Trout at Center and keep an OG from the original lineup for all three general positions basically Position players, starters, and the bullpen. I couldn’t think of a great 2nd baseman that wasn’t before 1990 except Dustin bc he won an MVP and even still I think he was criminally underrated. I think if he didn’t have those nagging injuries he would’ve been a guaranteed HoFer but he fell short of 2000 hits so he probably will be written off for that unfortunately despite the 50 career bWAR.
I'VE WAITED SO LONG THANK YOU FOR THIS
Heck yeah! Glad you enjoyed
this channel just doesn't miss.
Gotta make up for all those strikeouts in little league
I dig the trivia, dope video as always
absolute banger as always
Spectacular. Like just so good. Breakcore goes crazzzzzyyy.
Breakcore and baseball go together like football and country music
I was at this game, Pedroia was so underrated
Managed to get 50+ WAR in really not even 10 full seasons. When he played, he was the best player on the field. Even looking back at the 2013 postseason, he really wasn't that far behind Ortiz's legendary stats, and the Sox probably wouldn't have won the ALCS against the Tigers without him.
I watched that game online at home live. Love watching that dirt dawg hit.
He was a great player
man, i didn’t know you were a touring musician! that’s so sick, i am also! where can i hear your music?
Look up Forrest Isnt Dead on any streaming platform
@@nomorefielders thanks, i definitely will! keep doing your thing my guy 🤘🏾
Please do some videos on Bill “Spaceman” Lee and “Steady” Eddie Murray!
I’ll add both players to my list!
Bill Lee's still playing in his traveling globetrotter-esque team. I saw him at the Hall of Fame last year at Ortiz's induction. One of the coolest players I ever met. If you plan on seeing him, make sure you have some weed and/or shrooms (if you live in a legalized area) to give him. He'd probably laugh at it, but take them anyways "as a courtesy" lol.
Many former MLB players are bitter, elitist, or have disdain for the fans, but Bill is one of the very few that every time I've seen him, is a genuinely happy dude.
That Ortiz driving in Pedroia stat is kinda mind blowing honestly
Haha it was a pain in the butt compiling the data but definitely worth it.
@@nomorefieldersKeep up the good work dude, you're one of my favourite baseball youtubers

Thank you❤
You’re welcome
Watching Pedroia as a kid made me realize my standards for a second baseman were way too high.
What's not shown in this video is why he won four Gold Gloves, among the most any 2B ever.
Could have been more if not for Manny Machado.
One of the best Red Sox to ever do it
I still think Pedroia belongs in the hall and to hear red sox fans say that he doesn't really hurts.
Mike Cameron!! Red Sox legend!!!
Mets legend
I remember as a Yankees fan how NOTED FIRST BASEMAN David Ortiz not only won 69 Gold Gloves, but also once hit .420 in a season against the Yankees.
Source: trust me bro
Yankees really lost out when they traded him to the Red Sox for some Dunkin Donuts coffee beans
you just threw a up and in fastball to dustin pedroia.. in coors field... that shit is gone
I miss Pedie he was the best
B, Crawford?
Great vid but the best “*insert name* game” has to be ryne sandberg
Who do you tour with musically ?
Forrest Isn’t Dead
Thank you so much for making this video. Pedroia was my favorite player growing up. I've been hounding Cam 23 every video until he makes one about my boy. "Ask Jeff Francis who the fuck I am"
He really just likes playing against Colorado for some reason
laser show
Honestly wish I used that nickname in the script
nice vid
Thank you witgiz, you are the best
You can't Fault the Agent for doing his job‼️🤔🤔 Which is GET THE MOST 💰 for the Client from these Cheap Billionaire Owners ‼️
Scott Boras is a LEGEND ‼️‼️‼️

That 3rd hr was a hanger not a good pitch
After my Christian church service I can now go to Pedoria church service 🙏
I’m a devout Pedroian
Still haven't forgiven Machado
Me neither tbh
As a Mets fan, I object to the Rockies pain level scale. Stepping on Legos is much much easier. I would step on legos all day everyday for a World Series lol
He didn't hit for the cycle L.
LMAO
5 five hit games, though. Incredible for such a limited on-field career.
Speaking of breaking up a rhythm you might want to consider not saying every single line with the same rhythm.
I like Ortiz but if he is in the hof so should people like Bonds and Arod they all did peds
I agree all of them should be in
Peewee was the best
