I love it when someone gets a little too cocky and then gets quickly humbled. Always a satisfying feeling.
Yes! Well-earned humiliation at the end.
ahhhhhhhhhhhh, so refreshing seeing justice served
Yep. I own you now. You know the feeling all too well dontcha??
@@dookiehowser1162indeed🎉
Hitter spoke with his bat. Game over dude.
So he talked to his bats and they responded? Okay? lol
He should have skipped around the bases.
@@furiogiunta7886 He did a bit of a skip in the final trot to home, but he 100% should have started skipping when he realized that it was a homerun, even if he didn't skip the rest of the way.
@@furiogiunta7886 I think it was much more effective just to hit that homer and maintaining his dignity by refraining from skipping. It made him look like the mature adult instead of an elementary school douchebag showing off.
Never has there been a more satisfying Homer to watch.
When he started skipping after rounding third, I laughed long and loud. Payback's a bitch.
He was pitching multiple innings in extra innings. It’s not like he strikeout out somebody then immediately gave up a homer. I’ll tell you this tik tok generation is way too sensitive
@@brandonneumann5294 Actually, my comment is downright INsensitive. I'm a believer in the Klingon proverb "revenge is a dish best served cold".
@@dalethelander3781 no your just sensitive. Get off tik tok and stop being triggered by every little thing
@@brandonneumann5294 You think stoicism is the proper response to everything in life?
BTW, no Tik Tok user here. Born in 1958. Baby Boomer. Brought up by Moon landings and wars in asia. Plus the Cold War. My Dad flew recon during the Cold War protecting the Distant Early Warning line. I was goddamned proud of him. If an auto accident hadn't taken my left eye, I would've followed in his footsteps.
You think payback is a sensitive response? Sorry, pacifists are pussys.
That's the coach's fault allowing this jerk to prance around the mound. Karma is so fine!😅
I played D1 baseball, It's hard for me to believe his pitching coach hasn't reeled him in. Kids today man, they just do what they want...it's sad!
Agree 100%. Coach should have walked out to the mound and said "if you don't stop acting like an idiot you're done."
@@tima.478Whats sad is that society and kids dont care about baseball anymore because its BOOORING. This type of stuff is what gets kids fired up! Dude was in the moment and had fun, everyone needs to shutup.
Baseball is only boring to those who don't fully understand the many different nuances of the game, that are taking place. It's fine if you need a more visual stimulus such as basketball. It's akin to someone watching 2 great chess masters go at it. It may look boring if you're not into chess, but I can assure you, it is not boring...nor is baseball! What this pitcher is doing is not ok, and If you agree that it is, then sports just might not be your thing. ✌@@gagelindell271
@@tima.478 It's 100% the coaches responsibility. Kids do what they want because the adults aren't doing their jobs.
the pitcher has a 7.24 career ERA by the way! This is hilarious. He has pitched better this year.
So he's a scrub; not surprised
@@chaosawaits He also pitched for Liberty and Winthrop, and he was even worse there.
It's college.
Yeah but has he pranced around better??
@@ToddWyattRebelSon He is also on his school's dance team and jump rope team.
He should be allowed to do the worm down the third base line
Or a moonwalk!
@@AEMoreira81 moon walking in cleats would be an I'm not even mad I'm just impressed moment.
I’m new to baseball, didn’t know the batter can’t do a bat flip. So the batter can’t celebrate but the pitcher can?
@@nofurtherwest3474 no the norm is usually the other way. batters can bat flip and celebrate as much as they want but the pitchers on the other hand apparently arent allowed to because this guy is celebrating as a pitcher and its very uncommon and all these people are getting mad about it.
@@nofurtherwest3474Things are a bit different in college baseball, but yes it is ridiculous that the pitcher can celebrate while the batter cannot.
He is the reflection of the coaching staff, head coach , school, and teammates.
Is Tony Vitello their coach now? :)
No idea who he is but he’s not doing a service to the players, the team or the university.
@@lifestream4191 No kidding. UT fans hate your comment, but know its true.
@@321gates if you know, you know…
And I don't mind what he is doing because as the batter I got a chance to shut that asshole up. I'm not even a fan of either team.
He was Feelin himself til he wasn’t.
Feefees are a funny thing
These 2 teams are arch rivals so it was even more hilarious when Clemson blasted his skipping dreams into orbit making his reality into a fantasy
Celebrate however you want, the game will always humble you in the end xD
"In baseball, you're always just one pitch away from humility!" --- Johnny Bench
Talk about looking foolish!
Especially with the silly metal bats.
Or glory
The guy that hit the homer HAD to skip coming around 3rd. If he didn't, his teammates should never have let him hear the end of it. HE HAD TO SKIP!
had same exact thought
Or the winning team skips off the field!
Don’t worry he did
You sound like a younger guy...if so, don't let your friends peer pressure you into stuff, stand on your own 2 feet and define what you will tolerate or not. Too many followers up in here!
YES!
I stopped playing 20 years ago, so I have the natural boomer mentality... but I love this stuff. There is nothing more exciting in baseball than showing someone up who previously showed you up.
Please explain "natural boomer mentality."
I disagree. Just because one person acts like a fool and makes an a$$ out of himself, there is no reason to do the same. I have no problem with some celebration either by the hitter or the pitcher, but the bat flips and slow pace to 1st, and the multiple fist pumps coming off the mound are getting out of hand. I blame it on bad parenting, and the coaches allowing it to happen. Stop the nonsense, you are not a bunch of ignorant basketball or football players, and trust me, that is a compliment coming from someone who player multiple sports.
Playing the game straightforward. No bat flips, no skipping, no backwards hats, no ‘war paint’, no walking on the field, no body armor, no laughing or joking in the dugout, etc.
@@AllinGold2Wanting Guys to Play like a robot and only show emotion in certain situations. And really even in those situations where showing emotions is ok. Make sure you do it without offending anyone. Me personally I think it's the dumbest shit ever and I'm glad these kids threw away that unwritten rule. But that's pretty much the "Natural Boomer Mentality"
@@PopOutPaulie Opinions vary. I get disgusted quickly when players make the game about themselves. Bat flips, or any arrogant behavior, is ugly. Baseball was fun but we respected the game and we did show emotion.That bat flip is arrogant, especially when the game is not over and you might get your butt beat in the next inning. In baseball, or any sport, they should not act like A-holes. I recently witnessed a 15 year old hit a 180 foot solo home run, then strut like he was god's gift to baseball. His team was down by 8 runs, but felt he was the man. He does not know how to be humble.
Classic. Like that little skip step between 3rd and home.
100% deserved and earned, depending on perspective.
Ark fan here and dave van horn has a way of letting his players have fun but not show up opponents. This was a reflection of the coach.
We see the exact moment that this pitcher decided to come out to the world. I am just glad it was my Clemson Tigers that gave him a slice of humble pie while doing so. Go Tigers! The real USC.
That pitcher will be playing in the Sunday Over 35 league in a few years after he finishes the week at his local 7-11.
It’s why you should always be humble, at least in the correct situations in this life. The downfall is much more painful, than the joy you might think you’re getting from showboating for a few seconds to a minute. Absolutely despicable
"despicable"
Hyperbole much?
@@cwolf208 yeah, your whole existence and family 😂
Emotion is great. You strike someone out in a big spot, pump your fist, show emotion towards YOUR dugout. If you get a big hit or homerun in a big spot, show emotion but you can do it without making a mockery of the game or the opposing team.
Just remember that karma bats last.
What if it is the visiting team?
@@FUGP72 It's a metaphor.
@@mattrinck7503 *_Metaphor, sarcasm, confusion & then clarity._*
As a Clemson fan, this was satisfying
*_As a fan of 'walk off homers against cocky overrated pitchers'... this was quite satisfying to watch._* 👏 🍻
My biggest issue is that batters get tossed for less and I feel like this pitcher is actually showing up the player and not just celebrating out of excitement.
Gee, it's almost like they all try to show up their opponent. They don't just "have fun"
Clemson had their best player ejected in the rubber game of last years regional vs Tennessee for talking trash. The irony of someone against UT getting ejected while UT is flipping people off rounding the bases after a homer and NOT getting ejected.
So what? With that kind of crap, don't get mad, get even....by winning with class!
And when batters don't get tossed for similar antics, pitchers often throw at them.
@@tompaulcampbell And by beaning someone on the other team later...
It’s a fair comment - players, in general, need to calm down. BTW, second time this season for taking a look at Clemson baseball - it’s a program on the rise with great facilities and coaching that has attracted some talented players - and they’re terrific fun to watch.
Man, the baseball in the Carolinas right now is amazing! Tons of great teams in the Top 25.
The Carolinas also have the best skipping.
My coach once said..act like you’ve done it before and like you’re going do it again..so just play ball and forget about all the showboating period…hitters and pitchers 3:47
thats why im starting to hate baseball now cuz all the bat flips or deep drives where the hitter watches it & could've been on at least 2nd but only got a single
I once had a coach tell me about the Baseball Gods. Well, they're real! When you disrespect the game, they will humble you!
I don't remember which all time great said it, but someone said they always just put their head down and ran the bases - something like "I figured the pitcher felt bad enough already". That relief pitcher should heed those same words when he strikes someone out. It works both ways.
I bleieve it was Mantle
The game humbles you big time young man! Love it!
I was at that game. That pitcher was ridiculously cocky the entire time he was on the mound. Ciufo's HR couldn't have happened to a better guy. GO TIGERS!!
No you tik tok kids are way too sensitive. Get off tik tok and grow a pair
Great take Matt. These college antics are really getting over the top. The hostility and taunting in that Florida/Miami game was unbelievable. You see it in almost every game now.
My favorite comment on that relief pitcher on the Clemson sports board (all the more appropriate for a team with a chicken for a mascot): "Gainey was prancing around like a bantam rooster before his comb got trimmed."
Go Clemson Tigers!
I love that the batter skipped home from third 😂😂 this is the equivalent of hitting someone with a pitch after a bat flip
I’m good with keeping Emotions in Baseball, it’s a Man’s game so the Answer is EXACTLY what happens in this clip.. sweet vengeance … but Antonelli Nailed it, let it go both ways!!!
100% agree. Let the emotion stay. Yes, it can get out of hand, so keep it in check, but let the players sort it out when possible, like this.
The pitcher had it coming; but I get it.....the emotions in a rivalry like this are off the charts. As a hitter, I never did the bat-flip myself; but there were many times when I connected and I KNEW that it was gone, I would enjoy "taking a moment" and slow start my trot as I was watching the trajectory of the ball as it left the park. I always got lip from 1B and the catcher and sometimes the coach but the reaction from the crowd and the back slaps in the dugout made it worth it.
Honestly let it be as long as two are tangoing.
If not, we wouldn’t have hilarious moments like this 😂
_Facts. It's baseball. The umps need to butt out & let the players play. 'Things' tend to (eventually) take care of themselves._
Justice was served by the baseball gods as it usually is
Loved this video - almost as much as I loved watching Ciuffo hit that BOMB live.
That look on the pitchers face after he smashed it.....😂😂
** Absolutely priceless **
Dude got what was coming to him. Simple as that. Justice served. Let the game work these things out. You want to show up a pitcher then be ready for those consequences, and when you act a clown on the mound get ready to get clowned. Emotional pitchers can work for a short period, but not too long. The best pitchers are stoic and locked in.
Tik tok generation is way too sensitive. Don’t like the skipping then don’t strike out
I agree 100% with you, Matt .if there is a celebration rule for the batter, then the same rule
should apply to the pitcher.
It goes both ways man.
LOL - skippy got humbled!!! Bats get the last laugh - Get a handle on him Coach!!!
The rule is already in place. You saw it play out and no bat flip was needed. A refresher:
The pitcher was daring batters to hit off him
A batter crushed it
He dropped his bat appropriately and rounded all bases
On his way home…he skipped and joined his team who all jubilantly rubbed in it together.
Did you see that celebration? I did…no need for pulling the light on himself. His stick already told the story that really matters, why toss it up like it’s a tool when the tosser is the true tool when THAT happens. Act like you’ve done this before and create a reputation as a good/great player and sport.
I don’t care what sport it is…whenever I see the behavior of a player like that pitcher, it communicates something that they really don’t want. If I’m that team’s coach, I shut it down FAST…if I’m the opposing team’s coach, I use it to motivate my players to bind together as a team. A solo artist like that actually signals dysfunction.
I’ll never forget that one water volleyball tournament when a player on the other side was slamming up with spike after spike. I finally got my turn to face him and jumped higher than probably EVER on a ball that either of us could have gotten and spanked it so hard …it was everything I hoped might happen. It hit his forehead and then went sky high on the bounce out of bounds (our point). This was a singles apartment complex where the tournament was the major event at a huge party sponsored by a beer company…the entire crowd went wild. It was spectacular and I believe that even the people cheering for his team was feeling redemption for his brutish behavior. I celebrated the play uneventfully with my team (while virtually exploding inside) and we went on to win the tournament.
The only thing that made it better was that he had “Voit” tattooed on his forehead where the brand was welting up for the rest of the game and afterwards. As I said, I couldn’t have drawn up a better result.
Wanna flip your bat…then do it at your own demise. As for me, I sure don’t wanna give away any power.
Same should be said for the pitcher
What ever happened to "act like youve done that before"...a.k.a, sportsmaship
That isn’t seen much anymore.
people don't care about that. It's the "all about me" generation.
it is a GAME
They want to inject more emotion into the games! Especially now that fans are dropping a weeks pay to see one! ( at the pro level)LOL This is the new trend.
I say this with neither delight nor sorrow: that is old-fashioned thinking.
You're right. That drives me nuts
I believe the old phrase is 'what goes around, comes around'
No it’s just the tik tok generation is way too sensitive
I realize I am old school but I walked on a Div I program in the mid 1970's. I had everything it took to make the varsity team except talent. So I played 3 years of JV baseball. My JV coach said, "You win with class, you lose with class but whatever happens on the diamond you are a class act." Benny would have went out to the mound and told or stop or he would have been yanked.
Sounds like you didn’t have the makings of a varsity athlete
@@Jimmymcnulty4 - What a stupid comment. He already conceded that, but you either didn't get it, or you are the kind of person who likes to hear himself talk so doesn't really think about what anyone else says. Either way, you missed the point. Ug.
@@Jimmymcnulty4but judging by that snarky post, he has more class than you do.
@@jamesholden4571 yeah and what you don’t know could fill a book
@@Jimmymcnulty4 That can be said of anyone, even you.
Couldn't agree more with Juan is last comment. This goes to coach, and athletic director. Coach should put a stop to it!!!!!!
And the parents of that kid.
Lol. If you can't flip you can't skip. .. and if I hit that walk off I'm gonna moonwalk around the bases after his antics.
After the 12th inning strikeout he did the George Jefferson! 🤣
I thought it was a poor attempt at a Connor McGregor
You’re probably right. I’m a bit out of touch with these young guys having grown up in the 70’s and 80’s … the pitcher was definitely skipping around like a fairy 🧚♀️
Not surprised it’s South Carolina
Its rampant throughout the SEC. It just means more I guess......
Pure Justice. Love it! :)
He was doing the Conor McGregor after that 3rd strikeout.
Conor patterned that after Vince McMahon's strut, and to be honest the less I see of that the better.
I think your new rule is hilarious and guys should definitely do this
Hitters and pitchers: act like it isn't your first time.
Nice little rant, Matt 🤣
The skipper of the skippee should have had a talk with the dancin' gopher about his body language.
Cute but the guy skipping is still called a skipper.
or da guy skipping is skippy...@@juliebraden6911
That pitcher is a wild one 😂 never seen one like him 😂
I love pitching, but ya . Dude coulda moon walked around the bases and that’s fair after that lol
Another great video Matt! Completely agree with you on this one
I like your new rule... btw, they'll be looking for a new commissioner after 2029. think you're up for it? 😉
The baseball gods are undefeated.
The Astros have a world series title in 2017. I would argue the baseball gods are not undefeated.
@@markellzey1531That's true, though the gods have painted them as cheaters for the end of time
The pitcher is a 🤡
It's a race to the bottom with sportsmanship in this country.
If my son did this I would immediately disown him. I'm not kidding.
Instead of teach him its wrong.....dont have kids,they wont even reaxh this kids age before you find a reason to disown him
@@dantedlane2Could i get this translated into english please? Or use some punctuation ? Do you want him to teach him its wrong or do you want him to NOT have kids?
Young brash kids never learn. And then God comes in and teaches them a lifelong lesson hopefully he never forgets. Something similar like that happened to me when I was 12. I got the message. Stay humble.
The tik tok generation is way too sensitive.
Batters already prance and flip bats. But your upset that a pitcher does it? How often do you see pitchers show boat vs batters? 1 to 100000? Hypocritical.
You don’t think the skipping around the mound and prancing was a little much?
imma moonwalk around the bases if he do that
I played D1 baseball. If I had done that, I would have been on the soccer team the next day.
that skip was hilarious tho u gotta admit it
Only if you grew up in the "look at me" generation. God help this country.
agree. looks more like the pitcher should be on the softball team. then again, they probably wouldnt let this sissy play with them. @@321gates
You gotta learn how to spell out words, big guy.
In this tik tok generation where everybody is sensitive he must of knew it would trigger somebody’s fee fees
Totally agree with you Matt!
I a totally with you on that!!!!
Love your comments. You’re spot on. Live here in Canada. Played ball since 1977. And these things are great to have a breakdown on. Would love to hear your reaction on the unwritten rules of hockey, too. Been a goalie since 1977, too. Great work… great videos.
I've had it with this no sportsmanship and class. He got what he deserves.
I agree with Matt on this one!
This is up there with my guy Luke from LVille smack talking the Vandy team 😂
It seems obvious to me that the most appropriate response from the home run hitter would be to skip around the bases while frequently observing the reaction of the skipping pitcher.
Surprising to see a guy prance & strut like that cuz the only thing baseball ever teaches you without question -from your earliest playing days- is humility.
Personally, I liked that 'Mr. Big Shot' strut around the mound - I think that's Bauer - but the worm turned. The stuff of nightmares.
That pitcher had it coming!
Matt, it is imperative that we keep our dignity, respect for the game, our maturity, our sportsmanship intact.
Our parents have told us, all because one person jumps off the bridge, you don't have to jump too! That's
why we "don't" mimic bad behavior, but ask ump to enforce "rules of sportsmanship" to stop & control it.
Because your neighbor robs a bank, buys new cloths, gold watches, new car...you THINK you HAVE the
RIGHT to rob a bank too! Of course not. Punish the offender, take away the goods. What we don't do, is
imitate the bad behavior that we dislike of others. Children say, I'm giving him a taste of his own medicine!
CHILDREN! Are you a child or a man? Are you of good character or not? Do you respect the game or not?
The baseball gods exists
The pitcher needs to grow the hell up. His parents must be real winners as well.
That's pronounced weiners.
@@fifiwoof1969 LOL!!!🤣🤣
Maga idiots I say
Why do we LOVE to blame parents all the time? These are young men at this level. They can take some personal responsibility for a change. I doubt they watched mom & dad skip around the house over Christmas break!
He needs to go play for the Savanna Bananas.
The hitter did skip from 3rd base to home plate mocking the reliever....Classic!
Absolutely spot on here. If a pitcher dances around the mound then that’s fine, but hitters should have more freedom. I’m not talking over the top unnecessary stuff but they gotta have some freedom
I'm good with (controlled) bat flips lol. Just don't launch it in the air where it's gonna smack your boy on deck. You're right. If you can skip around the mound don't get mad when I pimp this walkout. Dudes definitely getting hit next time they faceoff
I never minded an emotional pitcher, I loved watching Al Leiter pitch, but this dude is ridiculous and I actually was hoping for a 110 MPH line drive right up the box.
Detroit Tigers Mark Fidrych was the best in showboating… bring it back👍🏻✨
That was a BOMB!
He should have danced around the bases like video game Matt did 🤣🤣🤣
Agreed! He should have been warned as well then ejected if he kept it up.
As a former pitcher, i never screamed after striking someone out.
One of the middle infielders or anyone else in the infield for that matter should have told him “keep up the intensity but CALM down with the antics”.
National Federation of High Schools [U.S.A.] has a section describing the penalty for taunting, and another section describing the penalty for the batter-runner taking off helmut before entering the dugout.
My coaches in every sport I played including baseball, football and wrestling always told me whether you win or lose, strikeout or hit a homerun, score a touchdown or fumble, make a great play or error, keep your head up, your mouth shut and act like you’ve been there before. Loved seeing Karma bite “Skippy”! So sick of the ridiculous showboating, bat flips, TD celebrations, ice capades in hockey, and soccer slides. Celebrations, with the exception of winning a championship or setting a record, are for the fans not the players on the field, especially once you get past the high school level.
Go Tigers
That move you weren't sure about. That's a "Boss Walk" if I ever saw one!
Maybe it’s the new style. That one dude from Wakefield caught my attention with his tweaker moves. I agree I’m driving up the middle then ending it with a crotch chop X
I think it was Vince Lombardi who said " when you get to the end zone, act like you've been there before ".
2:11 That move is called The George Jefferson 😂😂😂
