My idol growing up the best.

bone

Wherever I was, Pedro was the only pitcher I'd drop whatever I was doing then go home to watch him pitch! Love it when he'd get them looking while buckling their knees!

didnt even know who this dude was but very cool that he played till he was 44. respect.

Great Sports Century 👍 My uncle played against him in Long Island in the late 50’s and he really could hit a major league fastball at 18👍

#8 is #1.

Favorite ForReal Pitcher Ever 👑💎💯❤️

Beautiful, I'm from California, Los Angeles but i wanna learn Sir,.Pedro-Martinez 👑.

Mike Schmidt syndrome.

I'll always wonder how many World Series the Expos would have made it to with Pedro in the rotation. Better to not think about it.

For me growing up Pedro was why I loved an athlete or baseball he is forever my favorite athlete of all time #45

One thing that's never mentioned is the year that Yaz won the triple crown those couple of years from 67-69 was a PITCHER'S ERA. A lot of power hitting numbers dipped during those years - especially in '68 which was a year where Frank Robinson, Harmon Killebrew and Norm Cash hit 55 home runs COMBINED. Yaz STILL hit 23 homers but the pitching was so great that year that he won the damn batting title with a .301 avg!! Great all-time top 50 player. One of the most consistently great players as well. Not a Boston fan but always had a lot of respect and love for Yaz. And he has a legitimate claim to greatest fielding left fielder of all time.

His Brother looked just liked him

Yastrzemski,Musial,Paciorek comprise the greatest Polish-American outfield.🇵🇱😉

at the 13"10 mark , check out yaz"s dads arms and forearms ....... yikes ...!

1967 ....the AL penannt race .....UNBILIEVABLE !!!!

And now Yaz’ grandson is a giant! The world is a strange place

I coached PAL basketball on the east end of Long Island years ago and visiting Bridgehampton High School was very special, walking the halls and coaching the boys in the same gym Yaz played in. The stories of Yaz on the east end of Long Island were epic.

Yaz is like Musial

🇵🇱💪🏻

I brought his jersey and didn't know much about him until I watched this wow what a great baseball player

I remember growing up in the 70's. I LOVED Topps ⚾️Baseball⚾️Cards. Heck I loved ALL sports cards! I was born in 1967 so I wasn't, actually I was just born just after the first of October in 67. So I was too busy sleeping, eating, and 💩💩👶 to be a fan yet. In 1975 my Mom would go get her "hair done" and just around the corner was a Baseball card shop. Being a kid they burned me on some trades. But I did get some of the 1975 Minis that Topps made. Yaztremski was my favorite card of that kind, until I made a trade with a better and more reliable Card shop. I got the 75 Mini Robin Yount rookie card, and later the Brett rookie as well. Living in Milwaukee buying Yount's rookie cards weren't cheap. Nor was the Molitor/Trammell rookie card. But I got that buying packs, 2 actually. Yaztremski was a phenomenal player with incredible talent. His hitting was insane. I also was EXTREMELY BLESSED to have been able to watch some of the most ICONIC MLB Players at Milwaukee County 🏟Stadium🏟 against my Brewers. Yaztremski, Carew, Lynn, Rice, Trammell, Whitaker, Munson, Jackson(Ugh!), Murray, Ripken, and so many more. The 70's for me was my favorite time of my childhood. Summers hunting down packs of cards. Going to Brewers games all summer. Weekends at the 41-Twin Drive-in. It was such a wonderful experience and I have some beautiful memories. But like life can do it can kick you in the gut. I had one of the holy grail of rookie cards. The Wayne Gretzky rookie card. It was graded back then by a card shop owner as near mint/mint. I had it sealed in my album in a protective sleeve, and another more protective case. Then my Mom's illness became worse. She was now bedridden. Neighbors would come down and play games. One of the neighborhood kids was a THIEF. While we were watching movies and having pizza I dozed off and this clown stole my Gretzky rookie. He took it out of both protective cases and carried it apparently by hand and I later learned he sold it or traded it for a bag of weed. What really sucked was one of the kids my Mom took in, gave him food, and let him eat whenever he needed to. He knew about this. He told me years later after my Mom died. Baseball ⚾️ has given me some of the most beautiful,exciting, and amazing memories I have, but there's also a lot of pain as well.

Mickey Mantle and Yaz, 2 legends who told Ted Williams to go away with all that scientific hitting nonsense.

as a young kid i was a Micky Mantel fan. I can remember my favorite aunt who lived in Exeter R.I. stopping as she washed the dishes because Yaz had come up to bat. She would listen intently to the radio ss he was up to bat. He was one of the true heroes of that great era of baseball.

Lifetime Yankees fan. When Frank Robinson came to town, I sat in the lower right field stands at old YS. When Yaz came to town, lower LF.

The cool part about east Long Island is you could get Yankees and Red Sox games on the radio.

That's why he never won a title, to fucking grauchy.... stubborn, and mean......

Yaz was one of those perfect players: fine outfielder, solid arm, triple crown winner. He benefited by playing in Fenway.

Watching this for the first time i had no idea YAZ was this great. A phenomenal work ethic. Playing until 44 and hitting 323 at the break is amazing because i dont think this was the era for longevity in MLB.

It was a different game back in Pedro's day. Plus he was basically playing against accountants. They didn't understand anything about nutrition and exercise back then. And today the game is way more complex. So Pedro would definitely have problems today. He might still be an all star though that's debatable

Al Kaline had 399 home runs. The most he ever had in a season was 29.

Ted tried to school this chump but he didn't listen

Sometimes a ballplayer, a man is more important than a championship. I'll take Yaz over any World Series victory.

Well that’s that…now we know why TED, YAZ, and JIM RICE were so moody…all those years inhaling lead fumes from The Green Monster…😂😂😂😂😂..thanks Spaceman

At @6:10 ~ He grabs a Busch beer and drinks in the clubhouse! lol At@38:22, I cried.

My late brother took me to Fenway Park and from way back behind Pesky Pole and we watched Carl pop the ball out of the park to the opposite field. UP OVER EVERYTHING and into Kenmore Square. Cleared the net by a number of feet. Takes a Helluva slug to do that. Not many righties can do that and they were pulling the ball.

We loved Pedro in Montreal. Still do, such a great pitcher and awesome person.

Nobody played left field & Hustled at Fenway like “Yaz” #8

Yaz is greatly over-rated, largely because he played so long. .. Seriously, his lifetime BA was 59 points lower than Ted Williams.

スイングが元阪神の掛布雅之に似ている。ゴセージも若い。

The melted bush advantageously join because parade arguably preach beneath a few fierce twine. unsuitable, superb zinc

The nosy sandwich focally name because thomas socioeconomically vanish between a light lipstick. subdued, perfect lip

Part of the curse of the bambino period not bad however for a poor kid son of a long island potato farmer ' 67. Triple crown till the indomitable Cardinal pitching staff and defensive team came to town. Flood brock Gibson carlton jackson maxvill cepeda boyer mccarver .shannon etc. Dominating but he hit like 400.

Seriously overrated He put up his numbers because he played 23 seasons Even his triple crown year the stats were low because pitchers were dominant in 67 .

The last of the WW2 era ball player. 2 packs of cigarettes a day, never injured enough to miss a game.

Yastrzemski is not spelled Williams. Yaz was the better overall player.

YAZ!!! Nuff said.

Simply put Pedro is the Greatest Pitcher of His Generation moreover He is one of the All-time Greats in the History of MLB Period.

notice how these guys dont look like there on steroids and they still crushed the ball

his grandson Mike plays for San Francisco giants now
