Summer 2013. You just had to be there.
Fr
4 home runs 10 Runs Batted In 2 Great Throws in a week. For a rookie that's amazing
You got it wrong. That's great for any MLB player.
+Funny Moments and Videos cough cough he said rookie, detective.
+Suany Mateo he said rookie yes but he is right that's great for any mlb player not just a rookie
Not to mention a grand slam
it's gotta be one of the top 1st week (or even month) debuts in mlb history
I have no idea why people dislike Vin Scully. He's a legend. He is by far my favorite announcer because of the fact that he's not loud and annoying. But at the sametime he shows a good amount of emotion in clutch situations of a game. And he gives a vivid image of what's happening.
Baseball Fanatic. His way of commentating a game has been the same since like the 60's. Nothing wrong with that, I like it. but some people might not prefer an old school announcer like Scully. They prefer Joe buck and other commentators.
Anyone who dislike Scully is a fucking twat.
I loved watching games Scully called. In an interview he said he just calls the play and shuts up and lets the crowd speak or something along those lines. A good roar of a crowd especially in the postseason gives me chills so I hate Joe Buck being an ass and screaming over it.
HE is the GOAT of Base Announcing.. A TRUE LEGEND. I always love and enjoy watching his style of his commentating.
Baseball Fanatic anyone who dislike Vin Scully is a Joe Buck fan
In hindsight he was the most important dodger of the past decade. People forget the dodgers were close to blowing up the nucleus of the team until he came up. He literally altered an entire teams trajectory with how he played in June 2013
Even if you aren't a Dodgers Fan, you have to admit that he had an insane first week, that probably got the Dodgers into the playoffs
He turned the dodgers season around. I remember being in Palm Springs and people who obviously didn’t care about baseball stopped to watch him bat. They went 42-8 after his call up.
@Boe O He was the catalyst for the past 8 years.
We went 42-8 in that run
I still miss him
I still remember when Puig tossed me a ball during spring training, waved hi during a game, and waved again during a different game. I loved the dodgers so much more because of his love for the fans and the game. He will always be a dodger! I’ll always be a fan of Puig. #PuigYourFriend 😢
Lulu Rose This aged well
GusTheBus09 So did your Mom
@@DR-pt2qi Funny
@@TUFF-Flicks its hilarious
Everyone hating on the great Vin Scully need to know that baseball is his life he loves the game and the game loves him he may not jump out of his chair screaming but he lets you hear the crowd noise and the players he lets you enjoy what the great game of baseball is really about. Vin Scully is the greatest announcer to ever live and Frankly it isnt even an arguement
My boy Dave Niehaus was pretty special
Most insane debut ever. Everyone was talking about him. You’d watch every game just to see what he would do that night. Not that I expected him to keep that pace up, no one could. Still its crazy to think he’s already out of the league. Memorable career for sure though.
His attitude sadly ... but me I liked the fiery and attitude in him ... backed up his teammates didn't take bs ... played his heart out no doubt .
That was one of the best weeks of my life, watching him play made me love baseball in a whole new way.
you know if scully says he "doesn't believe it" when he's seen it all you're doing unbelievable
Puig we love you, you once threw my young daughter and I a foul ball during a spring training game. I will never forget how excited she was, she didn't stop smiling for a week. Viva Cuba, Viva Puig!
The roar of the crowd is so amazing
+Antonio DelQuan That's what an almost always 45,000+ crowd in the biggest stadium in the league gets you
Only at Dodger stadium. Most fans every year
Gonna miss you in Dodger Blue 😢😢😢
Me too
Hey atleast he spent his career with us 🤷 had so much more to him but didn't reach his full potential unfortunately
Hopefully he signs with somebody then has a great season and then comes back here
I remember being amazed by this dude. I was 15 years old at the time and playing Center field for my high school. Added a lot of motivation to my workouts watching this dude play.
Look how big he is now compared to then. He still a beast
That's what I was thinking
+Carter Chandler yo I watch your vids
I was dreaming to think that they would've kept him in that uniform forever, I'm gonna miss the hell outta him.
He lit the baseball world on fire this week. It was such a pleasure to watch live !
I'm not even a Dodgers fan, yet I freaking love this video every time I see it. Regardless of what you think of Puig, this stretch was badass.
it's hard to watch this and keep in mind this all happened within the guys FIRST WEEK in the majors... easily one of the best debut weeks and even months of ALL TIME
VINCE SCULLY is a LEGEND!! if you think he is boring then you really haven't heard him call a game... while other play by play guys fill your airwaves with dead space VIN is busy giving you an insight into the player who is up to bat... he has millions and millions of stories to tell all while calling a game... i have not heard anyone else do that till this day #GODODGERS
Rest Peacefully Legend 💙
For people who call Puig a show boat, look at him sprint out of his stance after every hit. He had to slow down so he wouldn't pass up Hanley on one of 'em.
Players are expected to sprint out of their stances on base hits, but not no-doubt homers. If you're using a base hit from Puig as an example, that makes no sense. Of course he's gonna sprint after a base hit
Keenan Ahmad he sprints on ground balls. He has so many infiels singles. I'm tired of watching players jog to first base just because they hit an infield ground ball. Puig may not make the smartest plays, but he hustles
+Keenan Ahmad really? I don't see Bryce eager to start running to first base.
+Gaddi Moreno so true
Jonathan Ramirez of course not kids will be kids
Puig got the dodgers in the post season great player
Vin Scully is a Legend!
For Vin Scully to say I don't Believe It will be the best compliment Puig will ever receive because Vin Scully has seen it all. Puig will be back with a vengeance no question in the playoffs
+Philip Jams Well not the playoffs but next year hopefully.
This opening week is by far one of the best I've ever seen.....
My dad took me to the game where Puig hit his two first homers. His career might not have worked out as many would have hoped, but he’ll always be one of my personal favorite Dodgers of all time for the memories he gave me.💙
Not a dodgers fan, but I have watched this video a million times.
Everybody! Vin Scully has been calling games since the time of Jackie Robinson! Do you even know who he is? I'm guessing you guys have never seen a Dodger game before. He is a legend. Like you can even do that. He called Kirk Gibson, and many football and baseball games. He's not just like another announcer.
vin scully one of best announcers in sports history
There is a reason why there is an award named after him!
Jordan Alberto exactly
Dodger baseball hasn’t been the same since he retired
shut the fuck up jordan alberto you whiny little drama queen wimp................
Still gives me chills!
Watching this video on the day he is traded to the Reds.......damn how time flies
It’s disheartening to see that Puig did not continue to flourish into one of the greats. That first season, he displayed all the makings of a player destined for a remarkable carrier as a MLB player.
he lacked the motivation and/or the work ethic. He could have been an all time great.
The motivation was there. However telling a 23 YO kid to slow it down, this is how we do it, let's play smart can hurt his mindset on the gm. He played freely but it was with good intentions. U can see the hustle every time he hit a hr how he round home plate in secs. While everyone is lolly gagging. He made baseball fun at a time we had highest payroll & losing b4 he showed up.
THAT'S MY BOY!
The memories :(
Puig reminds me of a video game! Unbelieveable!
GO DODGERS!
MVPUIG
I hope he continues on his path of success this year. He has started off hot, barring injuries he will be elite this year. LA LOVES PUIG.
Anyone else look for Bobby Crosby in the left field bleachers?
me
think I saw him
I looked
Me
Me I love dodger films
Also check out King Gryph
He is actually respectful and doesn’t throw his bat 100 ft in the air like normally does
He saved Mattingly's job that week.
Vin scully we love u 😔❤️
I remember seeing his first throw on live tv it was special that night
Oh my god almost 7 years ago. Nothing but love for Puig still.
Talk about a freak of nature
2:38. What a catch by the fan!! That’s one he’ll remember forever.
i'll never forget this stretch of baseball, watched the whole thing with my dad. great memories, nothin but love for the 2013 squad
This was a great time to be a sports fan in general
Man puig was so much fun to watch that year. He literally brought life into that dodger team. His presence reminds me of when the dodgers traded for manny that summer
Dang this kid as a great future ahead of him and he's a bleed dodger blue and white
My favorite player
Viva Puig!
i will remember that week, that month ever and still hoping for more. viva puig
i miss this era
Dopest month of the year for a Dodger fan. It was truly the most exciting year I can remember.
Yasiel Puig God bless you! You are a great player!!!
My fav baseball hitter of all time... Yasiel.
He wasn't just the talk of the league at the time, but in all of sports...He was getting LeBron James type publicity at one point.
This was such an amazing week or so to watch the Dodgers, brilliant.
You can see Bobby Crosby around 3:31, look at the 375, and then after one person, he is in the blue shirt
+FLANY SINGS If you look closly to the 375 mark on the stairs you can see him recording in the black shirt and khakis at 1:07
+MrTedMcForehead Yeah it did, look closer.
Remember that when Puig joined the Dodgers they were in last place...
Www
and remember how they're in 1st place now?
jts024 And remember when they've been knocked out of the playoffs year after year
Favorite MLB player 🤘🏾💯
I love puig :)
I could watch this over and over.
puig is a beast
4:35 That one guy in the stands bowing to Puig
"Viva Puig!"
Those bat flips were so pure. Puigmania was a blast!
All this and now look at him, I never new how good he was.😔
Hes still good better than players the dodgers have now hes more than capable of still playing in the mlb
The wild horse will miss you Vince. We will miss you!
Singlehandedly brought out all the Dodgers bandwagon fans.
+catfoodtitans lol dodgers have no bandwagon because we've had the best pitcher in baseball for the last 5 years.
+moegerms
Ya sure??? What happened to them now??
I would imagine so
Steezy B
I know this was 2 years ago. But how do my Dodgers have bandwagon fans? We haven’t won a title in 30 years. We constantly choke in the postseason. It’s a bandwagon, it’s respecting talent.
Puig is a beast!
There was so much hope in what we saw that year from Yasi, goddamn what could’ve been.
Can’t blame a man though, who goes from having holes in his zapatos to being a big star in a city like LA.
Could’ve been that electric for at least 10
years.
i hope he has a long career look forward to seeing this kid play ball !!!!!!!!
So much more integrity and hustle...
what a beast he is
El mejor de los mejores en las MLB,, bendiciones para ud , Yasiel Puig,, sigue asi .Dios te ayude siempre de Cuba, como yo tambien soy de la Habana,, 8;16 PM, 12/17/2018/,Raleigh,, NC.
He's golden
Puig is the man !
Glad to see he actually hustles around the bases after homeruns
this video seriously gives me the chills!!
And a high fly ball … just legendary
your watching kbo
Gonna miss you Puig, You gave Dodgers a chance to win
Like Tatis all they had to do was let Puig be Puig but he was hurting peoples feelings and it didn’t help he played for LA
This is why I love baseball. I'm a mets fan but watching this makes you appreciate talent and grace the game of baseball.
The man the myth the legend
i live in chattanooga TN and puig played miner league baseball for the chattanooga lookouts i saw his last miner league game before he went to LA
this guy is great for the sport.
I remember being at his debut man that crowd was electric!! Dodger fans miss you Puig!
Whos here after he got traded🤦♂️
Doesn't seem real
Me 😭
😢😞😢😕😖
Seems unreal
I’m here right now
I miss puig and scully
scully knows when to talk and when not to and exactly what to say. not to mention the classic voice. hes a legend
I played high school baseball at the time. I remember me and all my teammates thought he was about to be the best player of all time.
He was lucky to have it called by an all time frat
Love you Puig baby!! Rooting for you from afar my love!! No longer a Dodger fan after they stabbed him in the back!! Live in L.A. but I root for Cincy especially my Wildhorse!!!!
this is why i love baseball
If only he was still this good.....
He was injured bro Didn't play enough games not even half
JosueAllstarMusic damn really? thanks bro i never knew that
+LoRd Devil bro pls
He is now
LoRd Devil he is good
taking the game to new heights
it's nice seeing a fellow Cuban having so much success.
He got the home run cycle in his first major league week
totally awesome that Vin Scully's on the call, one of a kind, once in a lifetime talent, total magic on the mic
Scully: "And it's 8-6 dodgers can you believe it?" Me: no I can't because it's 9-6!
+Alex 24 If Vin Scully says it's 8-6, it's 8-6.
+nuni121 wtf? I meant that he made a mistake cuz the score was 9-6 but he said it was 8-6... And learn how to spell!
Alex 24 If Vin Scully says it's 8-6, it's 8-6.
man i remember watching the game when vin scully said 8-6 jajaja it was funny man
+Brian Stuart go to 1:50 and watch it till 2:10
increíble yasiel
Yasiel puig deserves to be an All Star
