i hate people sayin that baseball is boring and for everyone who said Baseball is boring... well watch this!!! lets see if baseball is really boring.... it has a rich history
Zack Prince I'll agree to a point but it's not entirely accurate especially about who invented it or where it was invented. Also I'm doubtful if it was the first professional sport for americans.
Henry Aaron remains the legitimate all time home run king. Babe Ruth and Roger Maris remain the only legitimate players to hit as many as 60 home runs in a season.
@DC PARODIES Read again what I said. I did not say Aaron hit 60 HR in a season. I said Aaron is the legitimate ALL TIME HR king. I did not say single season. Then I said Babe Ruth and Roger Maris remain the only legitimate players to hit as many as 60 home runs in a season.
FYI baseball teams names back then came from announcers and fans, the white sox and red sox were called that because they wore white and red sox respectively.also they were called stockings but the papers didnt want to use that world because it was too long so they came up with the sox abbreviation.To this day baseball team names are still called nicknames.
The fact that many of the best pro golfers have never had a hole in one tells you a great deal of luck is involved Any amature golfer can get lucky and nail a hole in one. There are not many human beings on the planet that are capable of hittin a home run against MLB pitching. There is no way average golfer getting a hole in one is more impressive that hitting a 98 mph fastball 400 ft. Your comment is silly.
Baseball is such a unique and incredible sport. I love playing it for it's difference. It's not your classic move the ball to the other side of the field/court/whatever the fuck and score
For the people who might think we have not come a long way in race relations in America. I disagree. Is it a perfect system? Never? But to come from where we were. A huge difference.
You act like that means something. What stimulates you, dosent work for everyone. Baseball is fun at times, but it's hard to change the fact that the NBA and NFL attract elites in large numbers. They charge insane prices for their games and people are more willing to play. I saw the earthquake during the As game, I used to mimic Rickey Henderson I wanted to be fast then I saw Griffey and said hes the best I ever saw. But I feel like based died when he became less relevant because all these stars doped. That visible stain kept permeating throughout the sport and its had its share of very ugly moments. Rosanne during the anthem, Pete rose though I think he should be in, the black Sox, Marge Shott and while other leagues have stigmas, they seem less memorable
I just love baseball. I wish I could live somewhere like the Dominican republic or Puerto Rico where people are always playing baseball unlike here in America where people never play baseball on a regular basis.
Well, here in Chicago, softball (low-pitch and fast-pitch) remains at least as popular in the neighborhoods as basketball. Leagues, uniforms, everything.
I think it matters where you live in America. I’m in California near LA and I can go to my sports park and play a game of baseball nearly every day the park is open. People just show up and pick teams
Abner Doubleday had zilch to do with the creation of baseball. That is a myth. BTW, the Cincinnati Red Stockings' 69 game winning streak was ended by the Brooklyn Atlantics, who toured parts of the South prior to the Civil War, introducing the game below the Mason-Dixon line. Alexander Cartwright invented the scorecard and established the rules of the game we know today. He is buried in Greenwood Cemetery in Brooklyn. The first stolen base was by a Brooklyn Atlantics player.
@@evernechatman1590 He never said he did. I think some newspaper credited him with inventing the game after he died for some reason, perhaps because Doubleday had some involvement with the game.
@@evernechatman1590 the story about doubleday was made by the mills commission, who organized as a result of Al Spalding (of the sporting good company) to determine how baseball started. However, the commission excepted the account of an Agnes graves, a minor in Colorado, who claims to have lived near shuffle day when he invented the game. However, further investigation into this matter has revealed that the time in which Graves reported double day, as inventing the game, he would have been studying at West Point, in preparation for his military career, not living at his home in Cooperstown. He never claimed to invent baseball, and died while before the mills commission made the story Public.

The Giants and Dodgers were not the first to be located west of the Mississippi. St. Louis is west of the Mississippi. There was also a team in Kansas City before 1958.
I love baseball but the narrator made a few blunders. In the 19th century a number of blacks played in MLB until Cap Anson of the White Stockings (Cubs not Sox) had the league kick them all out. Another error made by the narrator was saying the home run didn't exist in the dead ball era; ever heard of Home Run Backer who hit a total, if my memory serves me correctly, 6 homers in a season.

There was proof that Baseball may been around as early as 1798. They found a law on the books in Massachusetts saying you can't baseball after a certain hour written in 1798
@@allimone5400 I don’t believe it was a law, just people playing a game that became baseball. At some point in the 2000’s, a researcher from the USA, who was researching at the British Library in London, found a newspaper article from 1749. That article was about a game that was played in Walton-on-Thames, that was called baseball. It’s possible that there might have been previous occasions,but as far as I know, that newspaper article is, at present, the earliest known mention of a game called baseball. It’s possible that it was just a bunch of people who were fed up with rounders, tweaked it a bit, named it baseball,and here we are today.
Stick baseball has been around since the early 1800's. This game was first reconized or realized when kids used bats to hit rocks or balls in the streets. I'm tired of people saying that in 1839 that the first game was played or establised with bases. Are you kidding me? Some kids used posts to play stick ball as early as 1814 hitting rocks or a ball up in the air or playing a base game they called it instead of the name baseball being established later.
People have probably been hitting rocks with sticks since the beginning of time but I think theyre saying an establish organized sport vs messing around on the block
Ok, so get this. The age old question is, “Who invented the game of baseball?” Many people say it was this country or that country, or it was invented in this century or that century, right? Well, here is the best answer to date... The truth is humans have been swinging a stick at a stone probably since the age of the cave man. However, who created the concept of running bases in order to score (points) runs is what the real question is, and the answer is the Native Americans. The idea was stolen from them by the early Americans and slowly popularized until it became well known enough to establish it as an American sport. This is how and why it first became famous on the North American continent. Nobody else in any country was ever playing Baseball, instead they were merely playing Stick Ball. Lmao It’s true! Just compare it to other Native American sports and you will find it is indeed fitting.
The English bat and ball game Rounders, where runners run around to score points is similar to baseball, and is described as dating from 1485, predating American colonists. I thought Native American sports were more like lacrosse? There are also engravings from the 1300s depicting a game of "club ball."
Baseball is similar to the English game of rounders, not the other way around. 8 miles south of Heathrow airport is a cricket field played on by the Walton-on-Thames cricket club. Events there in 1749 are greatly responsible for what is known today as baseball. If memory serves me correctly, research conducted there by a citizen of the USA sometime in the 2000’s brought these facts to life.
What the fuck was that " windup " at 1:50 ? Also , Bobby Thompsons homerun possibly being the greatest event in baseball might have been the result of stolen signs using binoculars in centerfield the entire season against the Dodgers.
5:59 "Becoming the first teams to move across the Mississippi." Wrong wrong wrong wrong WRONG!! The St. Louis Browns were the first team to move across the Mississippi when they became the Baltimore Orioles in 1954. Check your map, dude. St. Louis is west of the Mississippi. From there you have to cross the Mississippi to get to Baltimore on the East Coast. You are undoubtedly one of those who never learned geography in school.
'Hockey on ice' was being played in England in the 18th century, (there are paintings of it being played on the River Thames). The British brought it to north america with them in the late 18th/early 19th century. it was recorded in the diary of the Franklin expedition in 1825. Obviously the modern rules date from 1875, in Canada.
andiroidYT do you mean "american" or "North American" because basketball was invented by Dr. James Naismith who is Canadian...and it was first formally played in Massachusetts.
Baseball was invented in England or a game of the same name alongside cricket decades earlier and crossed the Atlantic with American settlers, another thing we've blessed you guys with, your welcome kid 😀 👍
My friend, why the hell at the end you mentioned salaries,???? Salary is the private thing!!! Why the hell you americans always talking about salaries???? The answer is - no fucking 2 millions salaries!!! This is just stupid advertising
Nice little project, but a few inaccurate points given, including: St. Louis has always been west of the Mississippi (so the Dodgers weren’t the first team beyond the great river), and Alexander Cartwright did a lot but given a bit too much credit, here, for his contributions to the game. (As per MLB Historian John Thorn.)
Narrative: "May 4, 1869..." Why are you showing film footage of cars driving down the street while announcing what happened in 1869? Your video doesn't match up with your narrative- fail! I stopped watching right then and there.
You're not the only (or even first) person to have noticed inconsistencies with the dialogue and the visuals. There are more inconsistencies than just that one, but there's also no video footage available from 1869, especially considering the oldest surviving film in existence is from 1888. At that point, I have a decision: either continue using pictures like a boring slideshow they show in school or trade off a little bit of accuracy to keep this video entertaining by putting in some video footage that can complement the dialogue well without causing a distraction. I chose the latter, and I think this video is better because of it. If it's too distracting for you to handle, then perhaps you could find another manner of obtaining information about baseball's rich history, one a little more to your liking - might I suggest trying an encyclopedia. It's not a failure, but instead a design decision. I'm sorry you felt like this small detail was too big an issue for you to overlook and you couldn't finish the video because of it.
@@billsmith5985 cricket remains to this day a bigger sport around the world which baseball fans could dream of. Baseball is inherently just American. Outside it's not really that huge apart from few nations. Cricket comes second after football in most popular sport. Baseball has long way to catch up.
Thompson's homer, for the lover of the game, is important for so many reasons. 1. It was the original "walk-off" before it became popularized in the late 80's. 2.
