So many of baseball’s great moments have come with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th. These don’t just include clutch walkoffs, but also clutch strikeouts and defensive plays. This one game scenario has hosted countless baseball clutch moments.
You’ve seen plenty of them before, from the Brett Phillips World Series walkoff to the Francisco Cabrera NLCS winner. Knowing the outcome kind of ruins the tension though, doesn’t it? That’s why I’ve selected two lengthy at-bats from forgotten regular season games - just so we can appreciate the drama of bottom of the 9th, 2 outs.
We’ll be looking at the 2011 Mariners and 2011 Blue Jays in Game 1. Can Luis Rodriguez walkoff vs Shaun Camp? Then we’ll switch over to the 2015 Blue Jays and 2015 Yankees in Game 2. Can Andrew Miller strikeout Troy Tulowitzki? I wouldn’t count Tulo out, that’s for sure.
For fans of these teams, there should be a lot to relive. Mariners fans will want to forget the bad Felix Hernandez start, but will they want to remember some potential Luis Rodriguez Mariners magic? The 2015 Toronto Blue Jays were as memorable as they come, but can they get a key win in this 2015 Blue Jays Yankees matchup? You’ll have to watch this episode of Baseball Bits, a Foolish Baseball production, to find out the result of these MLB games.

Foolish Baseball
You should do a video on the 2014 Al wild card A’s Royals
Pretty sure this video was just to torture us Jays fans
This video is really about Brendan Ryan
I really like this concept of revisiting high leverage situations throughout history that the average fan has likely forgotten or maybe never saw. I even think you could make it a reoccurring sort of mini series where you walk through 2 games on the first Friday of every month or something. But I want to suggest one change:
Building tension is a tricky thing. It needs to be a constant build, all in one direction. Now, it can build and plateau, build and plateau... it doesn't need to be all rise all the time... but it needs to never go backwards. When you build tension in story one and then jump to the other story, you're moving backwards in that feeling of anticipation. It's like turning one story from 0 to 3 and then jumping to another story that's back at 0. That type of back and forth story-telling is so difficult to do well that even a master of the craft like Shyamalan is only able to nail it about a third of the time.
You have a really fun idea here. You don't need to crank up the intrigue by bouncing between stories. I suggest you start a story, build the story, finish the story, and move to the next one. I think you'll find it far more effective. Good luck.
As a jays fan this felt like an attack on our bullpen tendencies
thats because it is LOL
As a Yankees fan this felt like a common Yankees W when we didn't deserve one ;)
I'm a jays fan unless they're playing the mariners, so I come out even on this one
😭
Same
“Not 1, not 2, not 4, but 3” is the greatest line ever and will most likely be unnoticed by most.
Hopefully it'll be appreciated by not 1, not 2, not 4, but 3 people.
Truly a great line
@@FoolishBaseball 😂😂😂🤣
“three shall be the number of the counting, and the number of the counting, shall be three”
1, 2, 5!
I rarely spoke to my father. When he got really sick, I flew out to see him one last time. The mariners were playing like always, which is to say, awful. When they went down by 7, his brother left, telling my father that is what you get with the Mariners. I stayed and watched the comeback, and while we both got excited, we both knew that it was the Mariners and they'd eventually come up short. During Luis Rogriguez's entire at bat we were practically screaming at the television for him to win it, my heart was racing for several minutes watching him battle, just barely staying alive. When he walked it off, my father screamed in celebration as I ran around the room. I flew back home Wednesday the 13th, and my father died the 15th. For many, even the Mariner faithful, that walkoff was meaningless. It was just a single, insignificant win in the middle of decades of insignificance. For me, its a moment I'll never forget.
thank you for sharing
hope you’re doing okay and sorry to hear that
And that right there is what Baseball is all about. Excellent story.
Most crushing “Bottom of the 9th, 2 outs” situation I can think of is when Jim Joyce robbed Armando Galarraga of a perfect game. On a personal achievement level it doesn’t get more heartbreaking than that.
I think that would've been top of the 9th. I know, very pedantic of me.
@@FoolishBaseball IIRC you are correct. Guess you’ll have to make a “Top of the 9th, 2 outs” video next!
@@FoolishBaseball hmmm shallow and pedantic
Forgive me for being annoying, but have you heard of our lord and savior Dave Stieb, who experienced losing a no hitter in that situation on back to back starts?
@@AnAnxiousFroggo Yeah, but out Lord and Savior Dave Stieb has been blessed and christened by the gods living in Dorktown. But I wouldn’t complain if Bailey gave it a shot.
Common Foolish Baseball W
You're the first comment! Common W for you too.
@@FoolishBaseball Let’s go!
The worst foolish baseball video “would”still be a W, I say “Would still be a W” but foolish baseball has no bad video
@@FoolishBaseball I love you
@@Baseballify That'd be true if not for the Giolito video. Otherwise this is an excellent channel for people who don't give a shit about boreball
Bailey: remembers Michael Saunders played for the Blue Jays, briefly
Also Bailey: forgets Justin Smoak played for the Blue Jays for years
I wouldn't dare disrespect the 2016 Michael Saunders All Star campaign
@@FoolishBaseball What about Smoak starting the ASG in 2017?
@@FoolishBaseball i was at the michael saunders 3 home run game vs the orioles… he’s undoubtedly the 🐐
@@bernier42I forgot about smoak all together so I mean 🤷🏿♀️
I often forget that Justin Smoak was my first favorite Mariner that I can remember
"I can do it too" backed up with the amazing narrative payoff at the end, this felt like a Jon Bois masterpiece for more reasons than just Google Maps 😁
JON BOIS MENTIONED!
This is the best Mariners content using Google Earth on CZcams, hands down.
Glad you said it.
It was Pretty Good
@@ndsufan6439 Heeey I see what you did there..
I love how Ricky Henderson just randomly shows up on charts like "yep, he's number 1 and no one can contest that but let's talk about the rest of the normal humans below him"

@@FoolishBaseball I am a wizard.
Miller vs. Tulo at bat was one of the wildest and my favorite regular season at bats of all time
Tulo fouling off six two-strike sliders is insane
same. i remember it often
Watched this live and my heart was going crazy
As a Blue Jays fan, this video is a gold mine of "Hey, remember that guy?" And yes, I immediately knew you were going to talk about the Tulo AB.
P.S. It's pronounced "zep-chin-skee" -- the R is silent
knowing who mark rzepczynski even is should get me two free tickets a year to the skydome. that year he went the other way in the colby rasmus deal...that should be another two free tickets. what a dark era of jays baseball.
What a three headed monster out of that pen Casey Jansen Shawn camp and Octavio dotel. So many blue jays legends
When he was on the Indians his nickname was Scrabble lol
@@markokuhar670Same with the Cardinals
As a Mariner fan, I somehow remembered this game😭.
Also love How the Mariners and Jays series starts tomorrow. So we'll timed
m's getting swept
@@alexmacdiarmid4704 Just like how the Mariners swept the Jays....
I’ve been binge watching baseball bits waiting for a new one. Quality is crazy
thank you much. the goal is to make stuff you can binge watch
@@FoolishBaseball I thought it was to make stuff I could binge watch?!??!?! Unsubbed.
I remember watching the 2011 Jays-Mariners game and going to bed when the score was 0-7. I woke up the next day, saw the final score and wondered how the hell they lost it. Well, now I know. Thanks!
What a great idea of a video. I've always been around baseball but never followed too heavily. This year I decided why not try and watch as many games as I can and I feel like this video found such a perfect demographic.
Thanks! Hopefully you won't be the only person to have that experience.
Same!
Corey Patterson, Octavio Dotel, Shaun Camp, Marc Rzepczynski. Classic names from the 2011 Blue Jays
might've mispronounced that last one
@@FoolishBaseball the "r" is silent. ("zep-chin-ski") overall, a pretty good pronunciation job IMO considering that his nickname is "scrabble"
@@FoolishBaseball I was surprised you got that wrong, he was a crucial piece in the 2011 Cardinals run and his name has been seared into my brain after all the times I heard it in those playoffs.
Fresh bits!! The world rejoices
real
Fresh bits. Just out of the oven. Get em while they're hot.
Gotta be honest, the writing and narration in this is absolutely amazing, captivated and giggling the whole way
As a mariners fan, it was heart warming seeing that walk off that I had forgotten.
Thank you.
Days when a new Foolish Baseball video drops is always a good day
that's great to hear
@Foolish Baseball I am curious of what is your deal with the Blue Jays. I was excited that you showcased two Blue Jays game, but at the same time it was two losses 😂😢
I am curious why people leave this comment on every video lol
@@AliceYobby because foolish baseball is the best content on CZcams
For some reason my five year old is obsessed with this video, especially the mustache part 😂 thank you for keeping it g-rated (unlike some other baseball channels!!)
Please do more of these videos!! It's a great way to showcase important history in action during what seems like an otherwise normal game from the outset
I always enjoy the story-driven Baseball Bits. Stats for stats sake are fun, but my favorites are where you show off the intensity and enjoyment of a baseball game. Music was amazing in the video too
This is very easily some of my favorite content in baseball. Thanks for all the hard work simply for my viewing pleasure, Bailey.
The best part of the mariners clip is the absolute joyful laughter of one of the announcers as the hit gets down
This is the greatest Toronto Blue Jays video of all time
Well, until the very end at least.
Jays still own the Yankees to this day
Little League, 9th inning, 2 outs, our team down by 1 and 2 guys on base, I get up, the count goes to 3-2, I hit a line drive drive to left field and tie the game. Honestly the best moment of my baseball life. Next guy came up and walked off with a single. Great times.
You should make this a series. That was an excellent watch and I definitely felt the drama and tension!
I don't know why, but the end really hit me today. I love baseball. Thanks for another great video
Yo that graphic of how low that last pitch was is some beautiful, subtle storytelling. Like I’m watching a movie! Your videos are awesome.
Here before Retro Baseball
Impressive.
What Happened to Retro Baseball
I remember watching that Tulo ab with my grandpa in his office. We were so scared of Donaldson who was due up next, such a great at bat. I’ll never forget it.
This is so sweet when we just had Cal Raleigh's full count bottom of the 9th 2 outs walk off to end the playoff drought in Seattle last year. I was there! Moments like that make fans for life.
The dig at Jon Bois had me rolling
This is such a fun video--one of my favorites you've ever made Bailey
I was at the Jay's and Yankees game and what a game it was. It was a playoff atmosphere with a overcharged fan base and a Jay's team riding an 11 game win streak following the trade deadline leading into that game. David price pitching his 2nd start as a Jay.
Love this idea of running through great old moments. It could have been 2 separate videos. Keep it up Mr. Foolish!
Trout vs Ohtani in the WBC final felt like a Bottom 9th 2 Outs moment
But it was the top of the 9th
Gave me goosebumps. Great video Foolish!
I was happy to see both games have the Jays being referenced, until the ending. Thanks for that.
A 9 minute AB with 5 mound visits is insane
Nail biting. It's not like it's the first inning and no one is on base. The game was on the line there. They didn't want to face a red hot Donaldson with no where to put him and they didn't want to groove one to Troy.
Bailey, always love your videos but have to say this one of my favorites ever. Great stuff!
I love when Foolish BB just says “heck with it, let’s just watch some baseball”
Foolish Baseball is one of the very few channels that I will drop whatever I'm doing for as soon as I see the notification. Another great video!
your humor and style is awesome! I look forward to your vids man!!!
This was a great video! Truly quality content!
Bailey, I think this was your opus. I was glued to my screen for two regular season games from 8 and 12 years ago that I could have looked up the result of. Well done
gotta love a sweet m’s ending in front of a teeny weekday crowd. loved seeing ichiro part of the fun too. thanks for a swell video.
Would love to see a second entry in this, possibly covering just one game. maybe even expanded as a series?
Anyway, great work as always!
Making me watch the Jays lose twice is just cruel
Love you bud, thanks for constant bangers
I am *such* a huge fan of when you decide on a specific baseball moment for the main topic, like your Game 7 video or the 2019 Yankees/Twins game recap you did. And hell it's actually even more impressive you were able to get 15 minutes just pretty much out of a mere two plate appearances lol
Any plans on making more videos like this in the future just focusing on individual games?
I'm glad I found this channel it's irreverent and silly and extremely well produced good job!
I didn't know the outcome of either of these games and I was on the edge of my seat I can only imagine what it would have been like watching them live.
This is the best baseball content out there. I love the stupid little jokes like the one at 2:33. Great stuff, Foolish Baseball!
Thanks Bailey! Great video as always!
I love baseball bits they rejuvenated my love for baseball
Always a great day with a new baseball bits!
glad to hear that
ONLY GOOD PART OF MY DAY
another masterpiece, never stop making these please
my brother and i have a distinct memory of that yankees-blue jays game. the second you started talking about it i knew exactly what was coming. in fact i remember exactly where i was watching that whole at-bat tulo vs miller. it was a great game
That Tulo - Miller at bat was something. I’ll never forget how long it took.
Absolutely love the channel!
This is a fantastic piece of content!
This topic is brilliant!
Mr Foolish I’m staying up late when I have to be up at 6am for work to watch this. You’re worth it
This has gotta be one of your best. Loved the writing in this one!
EDIT: I wanna talk to McCann too!
I’m a Rays fan but I cheered for the 2015 Jays really hard after the Price trade. So much so that I watched the game you used in this video via a totally legal stream while I was on vacation. That team was so special I thought they would be the AL champs at the very least.
Need more frequent videos foolish, you’re gonna fall out of my algorithm with all the other baseball accounts being more consistent. GLAD TO HAVE YOU BACK GOAT.
a day with a new FB video is a good day indeed. Thank you Bailey! 🎉
As a rays fan, that Brett Phillips hit will forever be my favorite baseball moment. Pretty sure I lost my voice and ran about 50 laps around my house😂
I honestly forgot about the Miller vs Tulo at-bat. As a Yankee fan who saw his team collapse in the second half of the year, I was fully expecting Tulo to win it.
2015 was such a weird season. Especially with the Royals winning it all by playing dead-ball era baseball.
As a jays fan, this video made my day cuz I was reminded of some of the short great jays like Tulo and David price
Foolish baybee that transition at 9:40 was.... pretty good
As a Blue Jays fan, I remember the 2015 game. I don’t remember the 2011 game, but I bet it wouldn’t be hard for me to find someone who does. Great video. Best channel on CZcams.
This video's structure issome beautiful stuff!
I actually remember this exact Tulo v Miller at bat. At the time, I said "This is what a playoff at bat looks like"
These videos are always great. And you commentate very well
Really enjoyed this one, thanks
Some may disagree with me, but imo this is your finest video. Perfectly captures the joy of what watching baseball is like, the slow tension, the almost ABSURD levels of waiting to see the game explode, the heartbreak of instant disappointment and the exhileration of victory. Baseball is a game about payoffs and this video understands that. If I wanted to get someone to enjoy baseball, I would show them this video.
Love the casual Jon Bois poke. It was Pretty Good.
this feels like rewatch video from sb nation great vid👍
New Baseball Bits on a day when I am wearing my Super Baseball Bits shirt. How fitting.
awesome!
I’m a Mariners fan. Yes I remember watching that particular game. One of the few fun moments of that season.
The bottom of the ninth 2 outs moment I will always remember is game 7 of the 2014 World Series, that triple from Alex Gordon to be 90 feet from tying the game was insane and it hurt to see Perez pop up after
What another wonderful video! Thanks a ton Bailey!
you are very welcome
bro I was literally thinking about a concept like this yesterday and now this video pops up lmaooo
I was just thinking about how FB hadn't posted in a while. Nice to see a new video.
hi Bailey I love your CZcams videos! They are really well made and you should be happy with the product you produce.
Another Foolish Banger! Also it’s so cool to be listed at the end of the video!
10/10 video. Great way to make something that happened 12 years ago exciting
There literally aren’t enough of these videos man
Always a good day when you upload. Greetings from The Netherlands. BAAAAATTTTER UP!!
Bailey as Charlie Brown:
"Rats."
Iconic.
I was at that M's game! Good game - one of the few of that era of M's baseball haha.
Bailey I thought this was gonna be an editorial on the pitch clock in the 9th inning but surprisingly no agenda just good baseball vibes
That Ms games game was the first baseball game I ever went to. Seemed like some distant dream. Wasn’t even sure if that really happened. Crazy to see it today on FB.
0:34 I now know what a catcher's down smash looks like. Crisp.
I was at that game in Toronto... I never thought I'd have to see that many mound visits in one at bat again...
