I don’t care who your team is, every fan of baseball needs to celebrate these moments.
yup, i’m a marlins fan but damn this was awesome to watch
Reds fan 🤙🏼 I agree with you 100 percent.
Mr Wilson is an inspiration to anyone and everyone!!! 😊
You just took the words right out of my mouth. The true baseball fan doesn't care
Cool moment for sure one of the many things that makes baseball great. But I'm disappointed that his teammates didn't give him the silent treatment, not sure I could have either.
I love his father's reaction because any dad worth a damn would be doing the same thing. What a night to be a Phillies fan.
many of us dad's are smiling watching his dad's reaction. We can all relate :)
I am sure Wes Wilson will come back to this video to show to his kids and grandkids. what a valuable piece of history for him!
Lol
Not to mention it was also Michael Lorenzen's no hitter
@@jakekrueger7854 and they sold 4,500 nachos
And they will be like "what was going on with people's hair back then?"
would've been cool if the dugout had given him the "silent treatment" after he finished rounding the bases 😂
I don't even watch baseball, but I came here to see this! I'm so happy for this young man, his family, his team, and their fans!
same with me.
Wes hits his first career home run during his first ab. Nick Castellanos hits his 199th and 200th career home run, and Micheal lorenzen throws a no-no during his first start as a Phillie in CBP. You can’t write this stuff. What a magical night in Philly. ❤
Liam Castellanos was also everywhere and hugged both Wilson’s wife and Lorenzen mom….. he’s the real mvp tbh.
It was a very magical moment for Fans, Players and family members. Michael Lorenzen was awesome throwing a no hitter, Weston Wilson first homer was a magical moment! Go Phillies!
Problem is it happened in Philadelphia. Disgusting
@hahahajackmyswag Sounds like a personal problem. Get some help for that.
It was so amazing. Wes' family going nuts was great enough, then Lorenzen making all of Philly even more proud, and there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that'll be a home run. And so that'll make it a 4-0 ballgame
These are the greatest moments in sports! Everyone that played as a kid dreams of this.
This stuff gets me every time with the family. I love it. Great job by the broadcast crew capturing all that. Congratulations Wes!
Me too!
Any parent who has gone down the baseball journey with their son knows exactly what they are feeling, at least to some extent. A solid decade of pure commitment from the player and his family, half or more of each year on the road in tournaments, nonstop practices, all of the emotional ups and downs and sacrifices made, all coming to a head at one moment. You can just see the pride he has for his son. Very special.
Well said. And even when after all that time on the road in tournaments was spent and you're exhausted and the end of the journey doesn't end in MLB, the journey and time spent with family and friends was a prize in and of itself and some of the best years of our lives.
@wasntme7845 I've spoken to people that had a daughter play in competitive fast pitch softball and it's the same - only their "MLB" is landing at a D1 College, so the experience is the same - even when your kid doesn't land a D1 school or the Pros. It's an intense tournament circuit that is at a demanding pace.
That made me shed a few tears. Not a Phillies fan and I don't know who this young man is, but what a great moment.
Congratulations to Wes and the Wilson family. Kudos to the announcers for a wonderful call and commentary.
Congratulations Wes. I watched it yesterday and I'm crying again today. Dad stuff really gets to my heart strings as my father has passed and I now have a 4 y/o boy. Incredible moment.
Mets fan here,CONGRATULATIONS, so happy your family was there to see it
Gets to play in the big leagues for the first time, gets to hit a homerun in his very first at bat in front of his family, and he even gets to celebrate with Bryce Harper a 2 time MVP, when he gets back to the dugout, thats a special moment
His family, his teammates, the fans….this is what baseball is about! Goosebumps and tears, congrats Wes!!
This is very emotional for me. Thank you Dad for playing catch with me and my brother even if you just came home from a hard days work as kids and for always being there at our little league games rooting for us and for being proud of us we love you Dad and we miss you so much
I’m with you 💯. My dad would be asleep on the couch and would get up to have a catch with me.
Never heard of him before this and aren't a Phillies fan. And yet, how happy and proud I am of him. What a moment! I'm envious!!!!
I'm a Giants fan but that was a very special moment, that was awesome.
Dad kept himself together A LOT better than I would have.
I agree.
I would've been moonwalking on the seats.
Can't imagine what it would be like raising a kid, taking him to all the little league games. Watching him in HS and everything. Then to see him live out his dream and not only that, but Homer his first at bat. No wonder dad cried.
Dads been ready to ride that kids coattails to millions of undeserved dollars since he could walk and had baseball pushed in his face.
@@Mr_CAM0 What kind of family life did you have that would make you believe this father just wants to get rich off his child? Did daddy not give you enough hugs as a child? What a rotten thing to say.
@@Mr_CAM0Daaaaaddy, Daddy didn't care.
@Mr_CAM0 show us where the bad man hurt you.
It was probably one of the proudest days of his life. Imagine the greeting he got at work.
Always great to see this. Blue Jay rookie Davis Schneider hit a Homer his first AB days earlier in Fenway in front of his family and set a major league record with 9 hits, 2 homeruns in his first 3 games. Love seeing this special moment shared with family members.
Damn! Seeing dad tear up. I think I got something in my eye.
That was such a cool moment! So happy for him and his family!
i have a ball from him and i went to one of his games!! i remember going in nashville and sitting next to his grandpa.. he told me i could get a ball but i had to leave early.. so instead of just a ball i got a note and everything on the ball and a note away from it. i’m so glad because i spent 2 years saying “why isn’t he in the major leagues yet” and now i see this!! i will forever keep that ball i got :)
My brother sent me this clip. I was asleep, work crazy hours. I’m a womb life long Phillies fan and sorry I missed this live. Lost my dad Nov 2022 and one of the few things I did right was play baseball. Dad only missed one game ever, never missed a practice. Anyways my brother sends me this clip and says this reminds him of how proud you would make dad. Humbled, missing dad, so proud of Wilson, must be a crazy journey just to get to this point.
Yeah, that gets to you all right . All those years supporting your child and being there to help get him to this point and seeing that kind of result is just unbelievable .
I will remember this game for the rest of my life. What an amazing series of events.
Whatever becomes of his career,this can't be taken away. He hit a HR at the highest level of baseball
Absolutely
not a phillies fan but seriously love this moment for him and his family
The kid with the fu shirt right in front of the family must have been a pain for the camera man.
How can you NOT smile watching this
2 families crying of joy yesterday.
Always wanted to make my dad proud like that 😢
The baseball grind just to make it to the majors makes a man out of any blue chip kid and humbles them daily along the path. That’s why this sport is so unique, the men who succeed in it have been through the mill of self doubt, financial insecurity, disappointment and perpetual hope. The father’s tears were s deeply heartwarming moment of joy knowing his son had made the most of a beautiful opportunity and also reassurance all those hours playing with the boy made his dreams come true!
Anybody else catch Casty’s kid showing up in all these highlights? Obviously his dad when he hit his HRs, during this HR, when Wilson later stole 2nd, with Lorenzen’s family at points. He’s like the unofficial ambassador to the team’s families.
I doubt I’m the only person crying watching this haha such a special moment
First guy to greet him at the dugout was Harper. What a teammate.
The Dad crying definitely made me cry 😢
Every young ballplayer dreams of this moment
0:07 The man’s shirt🗿
Reminds me of when fans were screaming Purdy, Purdy and his Father was so emotional! These moments are so real!
Okay Uncle Wes! Even the baby approved 😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Congratulations 🎉
I like how the dad was the first guy up. That is so awesome.
That’s the best, what a great feeling it must be.
Came for the homerun, stayed for the emotional aftermath.
Great moment for Wilson and his family and Philly team mates.
I celebrate these victories and only wish I could have bestowed such amazing feats upon my father when he were still alive! Bless you Wilson family, very happy for your joyous occasion! 🙌🏼
I'm sure your Father is extremely proud of you. Just because he's not here physically, doesn't mean he doesn't still watch out for you. He's proud of you. That I can almost guarantee 🫂
Well done, seeing his family cry for him,made me tear up, God bless
Congratulations! That's an awesome moment.
As a parent, we can attest to the success of our children. It’s what you work so hard for over the course of many years. Then, you see something like this and you can’t help but feel such a sense of relief . It’s an emotional relief knowing your children will make it. I think teachers feel similarly when they learn of the success of one of their students.
I'm as Philly as it gets but this is what baseball is about. Family, hot dogs, cold beer, seventh inning stretches. Baseball.
Don’t forget free masonry
Congratulations young man… I listened to you speak after the game and your humility is inspiring 😎👍 have a long, healthy baseball career… you earned it
Goosebumps, what a hit
This is an amazing young man and family. They have had their share of struggles and lead lives of service and humility. If you need a athlete to root for its not just Wes but his entire family. They are Tebows without the hype. You want to have a better more fulfilling life and feel a spirit you will never forget. You need to spend time with the Wilsons.
No one can take that away from him...
Damn that was awesome. A moment they will never forget and that’s one way to make a statement young man and keep that roster spot.
Great moment for the family and my one day to be a Phillies fan to celebrate for them 🎉
I don't even watch baseball, but I love when a player hits a home run on his first at bat in the major league, especially when they show the family's reactions.
Rookie hits first home run in first AB and starting pitcher makes debut with a no hitter. All in one game.
That was a awesome swing! Happy for the new Philly player and his family. Hope they keep him in the lineup.
This is especially meaningful, because it took Wes Wilson so long to get a chance in the Major Leagues.
Congratulations wilson, you deserve it.🎉. Welcome to Philly 😊😊
That night was magic!!
Wow. That’s great for that kid. He’s got a bright future
It took him a long time to get there but he's not too old yet. I hope he does great things.
@@djredshow Me too
Ok this also made me cry!! Congratulations!!
i was there, at let me tell you the energy in that stadium was insane, even before the thought of a no-hitter! we were all so proud of him ❤
Awesome. Happy for the family and congrats to him. From what I saw in his swing I see many more in his career.
Good for you Wes. You can tell your family is so proud!
Please tell me I’m not the only one laughing at that baby getting scared 😂
Living the dream! So awesome!
Awesome & powerfully inspiring!
That’s awesome, lots of emotions just watching it
I keep replaying 2:39. Just to watch all their faces. Amazing!
Black guy has an uplifting message to share with folks tuning in 0:07
Awesome moments like these make it more than just a game.
Andruw Jones hit a home run in his first 2 World Series at bats in just his second year in the Majors .
That's gotta be an amazing feeling for all involved!
What a great life moment for him and his family!!
Player and his family when they were humble. I hope they stay that way.
We would watch him play when he played for the Sounds in Nashville. So sooo awesome to see this!!!
Lol that shot of the family was great
His dad was just thinking about all the moments man, tee ball on up...all the struggles. Good for them both!
priceless reactions from the dugout and family
I hope that little girl gives him that ball. I know it’s a wonderful thing to catch one like that but he deserves that ball! I’m not even a baseball fan but that was awesome!
Was it "first pitch" as well? Not only his first AB but the very first pitch he faced in the ML? Awesome.
Congrats to Wes, that was a big 429 ft home run for his first in the MLB. The Phillies just keep getting better now that they have Bryce and Lorenzen, and if Wilson can have a good rookie season they could be even better. Good luck to Wes and the Phillies
AWSOME!!! Moment. 👏👏👏👏
He CRUSHED that thing
Gotta love a 28 year old getting his shot at the "Big Show" & his first AB rips a Home Run with his family in attendance. Cheers to him & many more years in MLB.
Not a fan of either of these teams BUT....stuff like this is what makes me absolutely love sports as a whole. Congrats sir
Priceless!!!!!
In the Moment!!! Priceless!!!
Best....feeling...ever
Thats a beautiful swing. Its like effortless. Just smooth, not extra movements. Leg kick like ichiro but a strong swing like Trout.
What a great father!
Wow. What a moment.
The pitcher knew it was gone as soon as it left his hand and that was an effortless no doubt about it swing!
That entire game was a keeper ......A " never-to-forget " day for the Lorenzen , and Wilson families ......forver .. !!!!
What a proud dad!!!
Looks like he’s done it 1,000 times lol. Def looked comfortable in the situation. Braves fan here and he will probably be good for years and years
If your a father with boys that pl;ay any sport, this gets you everytime.
Orioles fan here but the Phillies are nasty. Probably my favorite NL team after this postseason and seeing how the Braves did.
