I am sorry if this video gives you chills lol
I don’t believe in coincidences.. 😁🤞🏽 I think it’s all math.. everything.
@@eazypeazy33mermfkgk
The comment section did a way better job than the video
Before Ohtani, the Angels last two rookie of the year winners were named Trout and Salmon.
something fishy about that coincidence
Ohtani is a type of fish in Japan. 🤯
@@markpagels4735no it isn’t lmao
Stan Musial having the same amount of hits at home as away is probably my favorite one
Along those lines, Ken Griffey Jr being the 2nd best left handed hitting outfielder born on November 21 in Donora, PA. Because Stan Musial.
@@dmlfan928ken griffey is way better than stan stop it
@ybkave4110 Stan had more hits, runs, RBIs, doubles, triples, walks, and had the higher batting average, on base, slugging, OPS, and total bases.
Griffey had more home runs, steals, and more than twice as many strikeouts.
Don't get me wrong, this isn't to say Griffey sucked or is overrated or anything, just goes to show how great Musial was.
@@GarandGunner stan didnt get injured and didnt play any where as good defense, he wasnt as good a baserunner and doesnt compare in war
@@idek256 Musial had 128.6 career WAR, Griffey had 83.8.
Speaking of war, Musial also missed time due to military service in World War 2.
The "I'll walk back to Pittsburgh if we don't win" one is really good.
The best part is that the dude actually made good & did it after the season.
Jeff Bagwell & Frank Thomas were both born on May 27, 1968.
They each won mvp in the 1994 seasons and their teams played against each other(2005) in their only World Series appearance.
Thomas never played in a world series but the fact the white sox made it is good enough for me.
You’re right but Frank Thomas was on the A’s in 05
@@SaltoDaKid Nope. He missed most of the '05 season for the Sox due to injury (though he was pretty much their whole offense in the brief stretch he was active that year, going yard at an insane pace of roughly once every 10 at-bats). He joined the A's the year after.
@@kami_in_the_skyeit still counts as facing each other…he was there, even if unable to play
I'm surprised there was no mention of the eerily similar devastating leg injury of Joe Theismann and Alex Smith. Both injured in the same horrific on the same field on the same day and both by 3 times DPOY (LT and JJ Watt), and both were missing their elite Left Tackle at the time.
exactly i was waiting for this one, it was the same week too if I'm not mistaken, and I think it was against a division rival
Wasn't it also on the same yard line as well?
@@agentlamp1 Not only was it on the same yard line, but the final score was the exact same as it was in the game Theismann broke his leg, 23-21.
And Theismann was at the game
And we're on Washington when the injury happened
Prince and Cecil having the exact same number of home runs in their careers is awesome.
NBA players Deron Williams, J.J. Barea, and Raymond Felton all share a birth date (June 26, 1984). They also were the teammates for the Dallas Mavericks in the 2015-16 NBA season. They're also all point guards.
Can’t believe Will Smith hitting a home run off Will Smith wasn’t included! Legit my favorite moment in recent MLB history
Messi and Ronaldo are born in 85 and 87. So too were Sidney Crosby and Alexander Ovechkin, another awesome rivalry with exceptional talent.
Messi was debut from La Masia, While CR7 is from Funchal.
Cool coincidence happened during the Orioles recently too. Legendary 3rd baseman Brooks Robinson held the record for most games in which he drove in the only run in a 1-0 victory, doing it 10 times. The night news broke in his passing, Orioles won 1-0.
Hall of Fame outfielder Ken Griffey Jr. (Bats: L, Throws: L) was born on November 21, 1969 in Donora, PA. He might not even be the best player ever born on November 21, nor even the best player from Donora, PA, because...
Hall of Fame outfielder Stan Musial (Bats: L, Throws: L) was born on November 21, 1920 in Donora, PA.
Speaking of Musial, he had 1,815 hits at home and 1,815 hits on the road.
🤯
One Dodgers vs diamondbacks game saw two old HOF starters (Randy Johnson vs Greg Maddux) scratch out and replaced by two young, upstart future HOF starters (Max Scherzer and Clayton Kershaw)
They are not Hall of Famers yet.
@@jamescook6564 that's why he said "future"
Justin Verlander will go into the Hall of Fame. Clayton Ketshaw, will too.
Roger Maris hit 61 home runs in 1961, breaking Babe Ruth's record. 61 years later, Aaron Judge breaks it with 62. All 3 of them were Yankees.
that is weird but in a cool way
Mark McGwire hit his 61st home run on his dad's 61st birthday. McGwire was born exactly 2 years after Maris hit his 61st dinger on 10/1 (1:01 on a clock is 61 minutes).
McGwire's dad's name was "John" = 61 and he later died on a date with 61 numerology.
@@mattalan66180
@@thomassteele9649 First off Mark McGwire is very much alive.
@@zym6687 Not what I said. His dad John died on (12) + (29) + (20) = 61.
61 is the 18th Prime number. "baseball" = 18 / 108. 108 double stitches on a baseball.
"Baseball" = 162 Reverse and "Major League Baseball" = 162 Ordinal. It's pretty cool considering they play 162 games per year.
Frank Reich once held the distinction for leading the largest comebacks in NFL(35-3) & NCAA history(31-0).
Matt Ryan holds the distinction for blowing the largest Superbowl lead(28-3) & coughing up the greatest NFL comeback ever(33-0).
Frank Reich was the former coach(replaced by Jeff Saturday) of the Colts that season led by Matt Ryan.
Prince was HOF material had he not got injured. As a Red fans, him, Pujols, and Votto all in the NL central was my childhood.
Another one is that in 2020, the Atlanta Braves we’re up 3-1 in the NLCS, and going into the playoffs, whenever that happened, teams were 28-3 when having a series lead of 3-1. You can’t make this stuff up
I don't remember the EXACT statistic, so feel free to look it up, but I've heard that people experience so many different events in their daily lives that 1/1000000 occurrences happen to us every few weeks.
So a bit less "freaky", and a bit more "so much shit happens that OF COURSE some of it is going to be weird".
It's always really cool to learn about this stuff.
Not as impressive, but Don Larsen threw out the ceremonial first pitch on the first Yogi Berra Day to Yogi. David Cone, that day's starting pitcher, then went on to throw a perfect game himself. Larson was planning on leaving the game early, but decided to stay.
Thats pretty damn impressive. Idk if theres any coincidence surrounding David Wells' drunk perfect game like Doc Ellis' famous no-hitter
Also, Yogi Berra wore number 8, and Cone threw a total of 88 pitches.
I got one. Jon Lester matching up with Jon Leicester in a pitching matchup in an Orioles/Red Sox game.
betcha folks who weren’t from Massachusetts struggled with his name 🤣😎
That's like when Cameron Jordan of the saints talked Jordan Cameron a TE.
The 2004 Red Sox played in the franchise's first World Series in 18 years, having last played in 1986. When they won the World Series that year, it was the first time for the franchise in 86 years, having last won in 1918. There was a lunar eclipse the night they won as well.
In the final game of Daniel (#22) and Henrik (#33) Sedin's careers, shots on goal were 33-22. Daniel scored his 22nd goal of the season 33 seconds into the second period. He then scored the winning goal at 2:33 of overtime.
Read something crazy about the fielders also, gonna paste the stat from wiki
They also each hit 97 2-out HR - 49 4th-inning HR - 29 5th-inning HR - 18 9th-inning HR
Thats wild
Wow. That's insane. I mean how the hell does this stuff happen.
Can't wait to consume the knowledge of this video
I like how you say there’s no evidence the hitter heard the convo as if he could knowingly hit a hr on a given pitch
Mike could have hit a home run on command if he wanted to during the CZcamsrs vs real players baseball games but chose not to
How about both Brett Favre and Aaron both going to the Jets, and getting injured? Might have to come back to that one if the Jets miss the playoffs. I just hope Rodgers doesnt come play for the Vikings after that... But it is also a contract season for Kirk Cousins... Oh no. It's happening again isn't it?
Does Vikings have Cap Hell?
They will lose to the saints in overtime in the NFC championship game if he goes to Minnesota. Being that in a saints fan, I highly doubt it will tho.
Shout out old tiger stadium! One of the cathedrals of baseball. My favorite ballpark of all time.
As a Vikings fan I have never been happier for the intro
I like the fact that Atletico Madrid and France striker Antoine Griezmann has three children - all born on April 8th in different years.
That's just Batman level preparation, lmao.
That last story is legit amazing
David Cone threw his perfect game on Yogi Berra Day with Don Larsen throwing out the first pitch. Yogi, of course, wore number 8, and it took Cone 88 pitches to get through the 27 batters.
“We are all going to put ourselves in 1969 headspace”.
Me: Grabs acid tab
That one time Maddux v Randy Johnson got scratched from the lineup and instead fans got scherzer v kershaw ha
Considering all the numbers in sports, it's not surprising that there are multiple coincidences.
The last story was super cool!
josh gibson hit a homerun on to a moving train. so, that homer traveled hundreds of miles before coming to a stop. in 1996 and 97 vinny castilla hit .304 with 40hr and 113 rbi each year. griffey sr. and jr. hit back to back home runs. hank aaron, in some respects the most cumulatively successful ballplayer of them all (most rbis, most total bases etc) is alphabetically first of more than 25,000 major league players in history. former catcher darrell porter was born on jan.17th 1952. i was born on his 15th birthday in 1967. we both hit left, threw right, wore glasses, suffered addiction, and had our best years in 1979. i was a little-league mvp, and he had 112 rbis,101 runs scored, and a .421 obp.
Yes definitely do a follow up this was cool
I went to a blue jays vs rangers game during their last series with my cousin and he said vlad would hit a bomb on a 2-1 count, while he was still on deck. He did it but the count was 1-1 lol
Favorite Cecil homerun wasn't the centerfield second deck homers at Tiger Stadium or the one he hit completely out of Milwaukee County.
It was the one he hit at Yankee Stadium the day Steinbrenner was kicked out of baseball for the second time. After the news broke in the stadium and the crowd gave a standing ovation of approval (we were tired of George at that point) Cecil hits a porch job. It summed up how far George had fallen and the team needed better leadership and at the end the dynasty was born that day. Then Cecil winds up a yankee in the middle of the 96 season.
Why was that the way you approached the moon landing thing? Does the narrator not believe it himself? Lmao
That Falcons part was rough but I liked everything else
The Curse of Joe Namath continues for the Jets. Many believe that Namath sold his soul for Superbowl 3. The Jets haven't won one since. The team has been cursed especially the QB position.
Chad Pennington and Vinny weren’t that bad.😂
The only way to break the curse was Namath outlive.
This was exceptional my good man what a fun ride
One that I found is that Marc Crawford had ended two players' careers through career ending injuries. He ended Norman Leveille's career as a player for the Vancouver Canucks and ended Steve Moore's career as a coach for the Vancouver Canucks.
Thank you for calling these coincidences and not ironies.
But speaking of which:
In his book "Brain Droppings," the late George Carlin explained the difference between coincidence and irony, and stated that if a certain baseball player achieved identical statistics to his father, that would be coincidence and not irony. And guess which father and son he chose?
Bobby and Barry Bonds. But wouldn't it have been wild if it were the Fielders? (Irony: far better at hitting than fielding.)
Jimmy Butler had an 82 game season😂😂😂…
Yes another srs video
lol the fucking transition into the underdog ad was solid man
One of my go to sports coincidences is how on November 18th 1985, Washington QB Joe Theismann suffered a compound fracture of his tibia and fibula in his right leg.
33 years later to the exact date, Nov 18 2018 Washington QB Alex Smith suffered a compound fracture of his tibia and fibula in his right leg.
Also, the players who caused the injury, LT and JJ were both the best defensive player in the league at the time, and both times Washington was missing their star left tackle.
Wonder how many parts you could do of this
Also, never actually knew what time of the day they were on the moon. Just assumed at night😂😂😂
@StarkRavingSports do a video on Eric Davis he had one of the only 30-50 seasons and the only player besides Rickey Henderson to have a 20-80 season. He could have been the best 5 tool player every but he couldn’t stay healthy
I thought of this bc Bobby Witt jr is 1 homer and 2 steals away from a 30-50 season
Edit: now he’s 1 steal away
Cecil Fielder made me win a pool because of his constant RBIs especially
The Bills vs Jets Monday night game was on the 11th.
Dudes roxk was by far the best way to close out the episode
Jimmy butler is one of the best examples of the doppelganger effect I've ever seen
I love the fnaf ambiance in the background lol
Underdog fantasy segue was great. Subd because of it
Rodgers' 2023 NFL season was still 25x longer than JamesOn Curry's entire NBA career
Is he related to Stephen and Seth and Dell Curry?
@@OH_MY_DOGGG no, he's just a random guy
Fun video! Nice Umbrella Academy reference!
Here's a NASCAR one....
Richard Petty ended his NASCAR career at Atlanta in 1992. Petty is a 7-time champion, and 200 NASCAR wins.
That very race was also the first NASCAR Cup for a young, and up-and-coming driver named Jeff Gordon. Gordon is a 4-time NASCAR champion, and ended with 93 wins.
Among Petty & Gordon, that's 11 NASCAR championships, and 293 NASCAR wins.
stylin in that old bape 👀
Terry Francona (then a coach on the Tigers' staff) pitching to Prince Fielder.
It's wild that Gaylord is a real name lol.
8:00 “Stay With Me” by Pharrell Williams. Nice 👍🏽
When it comes to the Mike Bowers situation..
call me crazy.. but… I believe sometimes when your so in tune with what your doing you can pull from aether & see what’s going to happen. Bc everything has already happened. And statistically you can always predict something down to the T.

Tiger Woods and Lebron James have the same birthday.
Cecil was my favorite in RBI Baseball. 😂
Chip Carey once said inca braves game as soon as he hits into a 6 4 3 double play we can fo home. The next thing out of his mouth was 6 4 3 braves win.
Great video
Pete maravich said "i dont want to play 10 years in the nba then die of a heart attack at age 40", he went on to do just that
sadly he was always going to die then, he had a heart defect that was unknown until he had an autopsy
That Gaylord perry one was wild
Sika anoa'i & dusty Rhodes had a wrestling match some years later their kids Roman reigns and Cody Rhodes fought at wrestlmania 39
See now this all makes me think i need to do something? When in reality im suppose to lay in bed because thats what everyone wants
Prince Fielder did hit a ball out of the park in Detroit at age 12 but it was NOT at upper deck level, it was over the fence and that was it.
Not sports related but since the moon landing was mentioned in the last segment... Neil Armstrong, Neil A. backwards is Alien. I always thought that was interesting.
Yeah that’s one of my favorites. Stephen Hawking dying on Einsteins Birthday was pretty nuts, and it’s Pi day 3.14
Not talking about Kris Davis and Chris Davis homering the same day like 20+ times is crazy
Khris*
Try the face split with Michael and Ant Edwards and you get a much closer match just sayin
The Fielder thing always makes me sad considering how Cecil was a piece of shit. Prince wanted so badly to surpass Cecil so people would stop saying that he only got a shot due to being the son of a ballplayer.
People think Prince was kinda a POS, sucks that it ended via a scary injury though
That Gaylord Perry one 🌙⚾️
Nah dude ive never laughed at an ad read like i did when i heard "you know who sponsors this video?"
Love some Gaylord Perry love!!! You could say I'm over the moon over it! hehe
Once you said the name Mike Blowers I knew where you were going
You should make a video just about cricket. I know its not an American thing but I'm sure you guys have followers in England, Australia, Canada, NZ, etc.
South Africa and Zimbabwe

Another big coincidence that just happened: Jrue Holiday was traded from the bucks... the day after he said he wanted to retire as a buck.
The finale was horrible. Man has never landed on the moon. This is a 100% fact.
Me: the moon landing ----

I have one for you…
My grandpa was blah blah blah and my whole life I always knew his World Title belt was in the landfill or some old lady in Metairie’s closet. So last year I saw on eBay the Awarded Belt of the man that beat him on sale from the British Museum. It said on belt who and how Jose Torres won. For the small $300. I bought it.. and unintentionally 3 months after ordering it, it shows up on the exact 67th anniversary of the day my grandpa lost it. If you watch Mike Tyson explain the Willie bag, that’s my grandfather. Willie Pastrano, not Pep..
Light Heavyweight Champion from 63-65, aka Ali’s butterfly.
How many non-American viewers do you have in order to call football, "American football" like a high schooler who went on a spring break school trip to London and then came back home with an accent?
A jack in the box advertisment at a ball game? That must have been from when they had a good owner, or shortly after the sell off? This new person killed the image trying to be jack, ran it into the ground and closed all but one location in my area when there used to be one on 'every corner' like walgreens? When they goin belly up?
There have only been three players in MLB history with the first name Aurelio, and all three died in car accidents
the fnaf music 💀

Every baseball fan knows about the Bill Buckner/Boston choke. But not as many people know about the Cubs doing the same exact thing. Bill Buckner previously played for the Cubs and was wearing his cubs wrist band that game….
Leon Durham 1984, Buckner was on the team
