    One of the most under appreciated players of the generation...Coors field or not, you cant ignore a guy who hit .330 every year...guy could flat out rake!

      And Coors is mistaken as a hitters field, but it’s the exact opposite. The balls don’t just launch off of the bat. They lift and hang in the air for a VERY long time and it doesn’t get the distance other parks get. A lot of balls that should be a bloop to the gap base hit, are often caught because it hangs in the air for a longer time.

    Man.. I remember watching this video about 9 years ago being amazed. Here we are 9 years later and he is in the hall of fame, unreal. Favorite player of all time, congrats on Cooperstown.

    This highlight reel brings back memories. So grateful that this video still exists after 10 years.

    One of the greatest and he came from my home town. Knoxville. He was always loyal. Born here, went to college at UT, then never left the Rockies. Me and my dad would go watch him play for UT. And UT would sometimes host a baseball seminar for all the young players around the city and I would go to those and Todd would be there. :) Awesome guy. Vol For Life!

    At 17 years old, I have gone my entire life watching this legend be born. To play at 40 years old, retiring at the year of his jersey number, and to have taken the Rockies to their ONLY time in the World Series, he is a legend. The nostalgia here is deafening and is nearly painful to watch. But Todd, thank you for giving the Rockies the greatest 17 years possible.

    Number 17 in your programs, #1 in the hearts of Colorado fans. Thank you Todd for all the great memories you provided us over the years. HOF or not, you are still my favorite idol and player. Look forward to your retirement ceremony this weekend. The one and only TODDFATHER!!

    That Vin Scully speech at the end is just so perfect.
    I was actually watching Sports Net LA when they aired Vin Scully's fairwell on be half of the dodgers, and I still have the goose bumps from it.

  • @Thehudsonhornet41
    @Thehudsonhornet41 Před 6 lety +2

    I’m a Braves fan, but if this guy doesn’t get in the Hall of Fame, something is very wrong. The only thing keeping him out is the Rockies not being liked by the media! Larry Walker and Todd Helton are both Hall of Fame caliber!

  • @christopherweller7560
    @christopherweller7560 Před 4 lety +3

    I don’t understand the whole Coors Field argument. So are we just going to ignore every Rockies player ever, no matter how good they are. Players should not be punished for playing for a specific team.

  • @robertanderson2898
    @robertanderson2898 Před 8 lety +3

    Seemed his career should have been even better than it was. I guess a fairly late start and a late career slide can account for that. Still pretty amazing career.
    Here's a fact I'm not sure how many of you know.... Helton is one of only three players in history to reach 100+ Extra Base Hits in a season twice. The others? Lou Gehrig, Chuck Klein. But Babe Ruth holds the single season high with 119 from 1921 (amazing he only did that once). Even though Helton did it twice, he ended his career with 998 XBH......

      @LucidDream Před 6 lety +1

      Vols stick together. Once a Vol, you're always one and have a good family of alumni who legit care for each other. Two legendary VFL's. People forget that Todd also played football as a QB. He went to UT for both football and baseball. And when Peyton was a Freshman, Helton was starting above him. At that time it was Colquitt who was the starter, then Helton, then Manning. Colquitt got injured on the first game of the season, so Helton took over. Then 3 weeks later, Helton was injured so Manning took the starter position. He played both sports also at Central High School here in Knoxville. At Central he threw for close to 3,000 yards as a QB. He was drafted straight out of highschool by the Padres in the 2nd round of the '92 draft but didn't sign and instead went to college.
