SlaveTrader hey- it was 2 sober friends. 3 on dead including JoFer. And he wouldn't have been caught if he didn't crash. Who knows who was driving and who knows if JoFer was drugged or did do the coke(like his stupid lawyer claims). But ya know what- he was gunna win Cy Youngs, he didn't play a season Opening Day to the Last Game of the season(correct me if I'm wrong) he was an amazing guy- the face of sports personalities. He was also drunk- don't forget that. But think- what if you favorite player in sports died and it turned out he was drunk/high even if it wasn't him that took the drink/drugs. He's not my favorite but hey- he's one of them
As a person that lived in the Dominican Republic (not where Jose is from) I feel like it gets ignored that a lot of these players come from countries where coke/impaired driving isn't frowned upon. There was a dead mango tree infront of my house that died when Oscar Taveras drove into it drunk. Its a real epidemic down there but when there are so many troubles/ways to die its hard to take it as seriously as we do in first world countries.
@@yourgfsbf9955 An opinion is not true? Or do you have inside information that Aiden was not, in fact, watching the game OR he did not go to the bathroom while Big Bart hit the homer?
@@radconserv68 He didn't go to the bathroom and back in the 25 seconds Bartolo was rounding the bases. First of all why would he go to the bathroom while something he has never seen and may never see again is happening? How would it have worked? He went to the bathroom as soon as the ball left the yard, took a piss, and came back in the 24 seconds Bartolo was running the bases. That's humanly impossible.
Shadowbane Gaming wow! Just wow! You’re going to be that way when someone is saying for someone to Rest In Peace when they’ve have done so much for others even if they were drunk or high. Like who cares about that he died for gods sake and he was so young, if you are going to be this way then you should’ve been one of the people the boat crashed into and killed cause I bet no one would care about you and they would say, “Oh he deserved it he did some many bad things to us.”
There have been 6 pitchers who hit a homerun on their first major league pitch. Don Rose, Esteban Yan, Clise Dudley, Jim Bullinger, Adam Wainwright and Tommy Milone. This is amazing considering only 31 players in MLB history have hit a homer on their very first pitch.
2 other guys died in that crash. Talented; but, it seems like didn't die early enough and he took 2 others with him. I'd feel more sorry for him if he didn't have a direct cause with it.
@@CZcamsHandlesAreStupid So he should have died earlier rather than maybe not making the bad decision that led to their deaths? What's wrong with you? Yeah he made a stupid decision but show a little empathy.
@@DudeTotally1000 no. He killed others. I bet their families have a differing opinion than you do as a casual baseball fan who admires only his talent.
I'm ashamed how some of my fellow Rangers "fans" never gave Darvish the credit he deserves. I would die a happy man if I ever saw Darvish in a Rangers uniform again. He's such a badass.
As a rangers fan I was shocked to see him in this list , how did I not know that 🤦 Darvish was probably the best pitcher we had on the rangers in our lifetime up until Degrom, definitely hope he comes back before his career is over
It’s kinda of sad to think about, we will never get that feeling of watching a pitcher coming up to bat and out of nowhere hitting a a go ahead home run or game tying home run. I like the DH rule. But I do miss the strategy that came into play when the pitcher was up to bat.
The Bartolo flip behind the back to first still beats his first homerun after 18 years. His bat did come to life last year though lol, 2 doubles, home run, 2 singles, 2 rbi's.
Icing on the cake was the empty dugout, I mean ignoring is one thing but to get all the guys out of there is golden! I just wish the camera would have stayed on him longer to see what he did.
The contrast between Johnson and Colon is striking. One who seems to view the game as a job and the other sees it as a game. I could be wrong but Johnson seems so miserable and Colon seems like the type of guy you’d love to hang with
This comment was from 3 months ago... I was about to say stuff like "I guess you cant read sarcasm" but then I looked at the date. So, now he has to hit a homer.
Let's be honest, we all came just for Bartolo
I came when I saw Bartolo...
HA HA LE FUNNY FAT MAN 😂😂😂
(Seriously I love bartolo but enough of the circlejerk)
Jorgeisbutter M I didn't I like be homeruns
I came for Jose
I came for Darvish
Bartolo running the bases is the furthest he's ever ran in his life.
Anthony Long 😂😂😂
Anthony Long if you call that running 😂😂
Anthony Long 😂😂😂🤣🤣
Anthony Long soooooo😈😈 mean!

2:29 "The kid in his last game, homers to left!" Gosh dammit I'm starting to tear up

0:48 It’s a little bit scary that Johnson was able to put it over the wall with such a short swing, a real example of how strong and powerful he was
Long arms generate a lot of torque. It was only a matter of finding the sweet spot.
@@aaronscarpa7469 That had some serious exit velo.
@@daniellarsen889 110-115 for sure
Dude was a beast that way.
I love that he circles the bases and basically doesn't twitch as far as his expression
It's like watching an Enderman play baseball.
Not enough attention was paid to Hongchih Kuo's bat flip. 10/10
captaino16 IKR

Without a doubt

4:08 not as good as that bird flip.
“Bartolo has done it! The impossible has happened!” 😂
That's what I'm sayin lmao. He's built like Big Papi, born to be a DH.
the bartolo colon HR is one of my favorite moments of the last few years. baseball is just the best
🤠👍
Bartolos was the best I was watching that game I went too the bathroom and back and he was still rounding the bases
That's not true.

R.I.P. JOSE
David Rivera He killed multiple people, why should he rest in peace when the families of those that he killed have to suffer forever?
Shadowbane Gaming this is why people shouldn't do drugs... stuff like this happens
Shadowbane Gaming because they all did the same thing, they just let him drive. Theyre just as responsible
Yunsfa no, he’s thinking of José. He was drunk and high on cocaine when he crashed the speed boat which killed two others.

1:17 What we're here for. The greatest home run in MLB history
I'm here for every home run BUT that one :(
Rick Camp? 4th of July extra innings???
@@MabelLouDad Great one from 1985, but I was referring to Bartolo Colon's epic blast.
@@Milordvega Ah, yea, I was projecting as a Braves fan.
Would you like a Part 2?
Well, you gotta put Michael Lorenzen in here, so yeah.

yes plz

4:08 fan flips off camera??

TigerFanGaming I saw it
Typical Dodgers fan. Scratch that, typical LA sports fan.
tht is true lol la is fun asf
TigerFanGaming a
Bartolo was by far the best
Jacob Wesemann sassssss
Yep
The funniest. But Kersh scoring the 1st run of the entire game in the 8th is definitely the best.
Why is it so important? I mean, I've seen it in several videos and I still don't know whate makes it so special. Can you please explain?
Juan Vazquez that’s what I wanna know
1:17 was one of the all time greatest moments in baseball history
There have been 6 pitchers who hit a homerun on their first major league pitch. Don Rose, Esteban Yan, Clise Dudley, Jim Bullinger, Adam Wainwright and Tommy Milone. This is amazing considering only 31 players in MLB history have hit a homer on their very first pitch.
That bat flip by Hong-Chih Kuo was absolutely legendary!!
In 2010 Gallardo had an .837 OPS and hit 4 homers. One of my favorite Brewers of all time, 12 career HRs.
need another video of this from older times. plus definitely need Nolan Ryan home run
RIP Jose Fernandez. Gone wayyyy too soon. What a talent he was
2 other guys died in that crash. Talented; but, it seems like didn't die early enough and he took 2 others with him. I'd feel more sorry for him if he didn't have a direct cause with it.

@@CZcamsHandlesAreStupid I'm not a fan of his. I can just feel empathy for José and his family as well as the people he killed and their families.
Bartolo's is on another level. One of MLB's greatest all-time moments.
I remember that Bartolo Colon home run. One of the best things I've ever seen in a baseball game.
Staving ovation from the home crowd as an away player is crazy, no one will be like Bartolo
6:04 Harvey saw his future with the Mets 😂
RIP Jose Fernandez 🙏🏾🔥💯
R.I.P 🙏
Cocaines a hell of a drug!!
Coke and boats don't mix
can't believe he's gone
RIP? He killed multiple people
I love the Mets bench reaction to Colon. Makes me smile every time hahaha
Thank you for including Yu. I miss him so much, but I'm glad he's got a chance to play with a better team in Chicago.
I'm ashamed how some of my fellow Rangers "fans" never gave Darvish the credit he deserves. I would die a happy man if I ever saw Darvish in a Rangers uniform again. He's such a badass.

4:56 that bat flip doe🔥
RIP to the pitcher homers
Let me tell ya, being a San Diego sports fan is just awful
Tanner Arrizabalaga They showed all the homers given up by padres but they didn't show Peavy who hit 2 in one year.
Tanner Arrizabalaga you could've had drew brees. Saints fans aren't sorry about it
ik, but despite the losing season we still average 27,000 fans at a padres game. but padres will get there, they have the 3rd ebst farm system
I know I feel u we have no good sport teams besides the Gulls which is a Hockey team😕
Sebastian Chargers are OK but in Los Angeles now 😂😂😂
Those homers to center field were no joke... Kershaw, Norris, Darvish.... nice....
It’s kinda of sad to think about, we will never get that feeling of watching a pitcher coming up to bat and out of nowhere hitting a a go ahead home run or game tying home run. I like the DH rule. But I do miss the strategy that came into play when the pitcher was up to bat.
Ohtani exists
It's sad. We'll never see this again.
now the DH is also in the NL we will never see this again.
Felix Hernandez should be on this! His Grand Slam was amazing!
PA Games title says FIRST. Pay attention
It was his first and only homer. How about you pay attention.
@Uncle June take your meds grandpa
RIP Jose Fernandez. The highlights will give me chills forever
The Bartolo flip behind the back to first still beats his first homerun after 18 years. His bat did come to life last year though lol, 2 doubles, home run, 2 singles, 2 rbi's.
I'm convinced Randy Johnson is a pitching machine that at some point gained self-awareness.
One of the greatest home runs of all time
Bartolo Colon
Don't ya just love when pitchers help their own cause. It's great.
4:04 That feeling when you realise the pitcher leads the team in Home runs and RBI's (it was the first game of the season after all)
as a Met fan from day one in 1962 I have to say it was a 'joy' to have Colon playing for us . What a class act and funny as all get-up......
Shame that we won't see things like this again
That Bartolo moment is the single greatest in my lifetime
Without a doubt Bartolo Colon's HR was my favorite. Epic Call by Gary Cohen too.
2:18 R.I.P. Jose Fernandez
Bartolo's the all time classic
Too bad this will never happen again..
😔
I'm surprised Colon made it all the way around the bases.
Oxygen mask at third base
Lol mlb the show
@@johnsalvi3870 LMAOOOOOOOOOO
what about Felix Hernandez's grand slam
IN SAFECO FEILD
Randy Johnson showing a wealth of emotion.
I always love waino's HR, the first pitch he sees in the majors and he gives it a ride outta here
ohtani be like: hold my glove
Ohtani* “very cute”
Verlanders face at 6:40 is priceless. He's smiling like a little kid at his first ball game lol
Nick Catellanos and J.D. Martinez?
@@thefungoden3978 nah, I mean JV who's sitting on the bench in front of J.D. looking around with a big ole shit eattin grin.
@@thefungoden3978 also, Castellanos*.
Awesome video dedicated to pitchers 1st homerun. Makes u appreciate Ohtani more since he's leading the American league in homeruns! Wow.
Bartolo is immortal, a legend, a hero, and attracted to heroes meatballs and all
Just imagine if a Nolan Ryan could hit like Hank Aaron, how valuable a player that would be.
OMG....Bartolo hitting that bomb....no words!
Icing on the cake was the empty dugout, I mean ignoring is one thing but to get all the guys out of there is golden! I just wish the camera would have stayed on him longer to see what he did.
Syndergaard was such a good hitter for a pitcher. Always gonna hate how quick his career burned out, dude was so good.
The contrast between Johnson and Colon is striking. One who seems to view the game as a job and the other sees it as a game.
I could be wrong but Johnson seems so miserable and Colon seems like the type of guy you’d love to hang with
By all accounts Johnson was a prickly pear, even took it out on a poor seagull!
whoah where is Felix Hernandez's Grand Slam
Great video!❤
I've never seen a pitcher hit so many absolutely BOMBS to straight away center than Syndergaard.
The first KC Royal in their history to have a multi home run game was pitcher, Jim Rooker.
First time I've ever seen Bum smile.
Probably the last time too! Dude turned into a real crab apple in the following years
And we will probably never get to see this kind of thing ever again
4:54 that batflip 😂
Can't wait for Jon Lester to hit a homer. Same day he throws a ball to first base... wait that won't happen
RiverCatsFilms he actually picked off a guy at first against the cardinals a few weeks ago
This comment was from 3 months ago... I was about to say stuff like "I guess you cant read sarcasm" but then I looked at the date. So, now he has to hit a homer.
And he did
And he homered his first this year and got his 2000th career strikeout in a 16-4 win over the D-backs
Cringe
Seeing Bartolo Colon running the bases is painful...
Jonas Hall no its legendary
Dont make fun of big sexy
Painful for the bases maybe
Great video! Couldn't believe that Randy Johnson didn't even crack a smile though!!
That's Randy for ya!
Some of those center field hits were huge!
Colon’s home run is the greatest moment in Mets history. You can’t change my mind.
Crazy because now every team has a DH we rarely see pitchers hit. Except for Ohtani
Well is ohtani a pitcher that hits, or is he a hitter that pitches
The Mets are the road team when Bartolo hits his HR, and the fan noise is as if they've won the World Series. Amazin'!
The Mets fan group "The 7 Line" was in attendance that night so not as surprising as you'd think.
The coolest part about the Bartolo HR to me is that they were the away team and the crowd still cheered for him.
Missed Felix Hernandez. He hit a grand slam
Mistad852 title says first home run!
Jose
4:08 Yes. We’re number 🖕🏼
Sad we'll never see a pitcher hit another homer... reminds me of the TV ad with Maddox and Glavine... chicks dig the long ball 😂
That catcher had no right to do that to Jose, dudes 1st HR and he loved the moment give it to em.. Thank you for the upload FAM
that bat flip at 4:54, tho....
chewynickerson He is 郭泓志 from Taiwan^^
not sure what you're getting at...?
chewynickerson Also I come from Taiwan too , he is a good pitcher^^
i see
chewynickerson The batter in 4:54 he is 郭泓志 , he is a good pitcher^^
Nothing in sports will ever top Bartolo.
great home run #RIPJoseFernandez you'll be very missed, forever
Lol randy's face "i think this how I should be doing this"
Thx MLB for taking this kind of stuff away from us
Yup....ALL in the name of more revenue!!
I somehow laugh knowing that this is only possible in National League fields
Colon's home run reminds me of Luke Appling hitting one out in an old timers game years ago.
I love what the team mates did when Bartolo colon hit his first home run..that is funny 😂😂😂
Where's Babe Ruth?
xof49 stfu 😂😂😂
Best hitting pitcher of all time.
mari anziani he was a pitcher.
Francocaine um....babe ruth played in the 1920s though.

Bartolo's homer never gets old.
Many moons ago, I was a pitcher in youth ball who couldn't hit worth a damn. This compilation put a smile on my face.
