That kid just had the greatest day of his life. He got to go home with a bat used to hit a grand slam by a big name on his team in a game he was actually at.
That's because Jomboy (James) is better than *anyone* in the business -- better than anyone on ESPN, better than anyone on any major network. He knows his shit, he talks very well, and he's not full of himself. Doesn't matter the sport either, he makes cricket coverage interesting, hell even curling is fun when he does a video on it.
@@waynealan3067 theyre saying its fine and it doesnt affect game play but people may have a problem with it (like the cardinals manager) so they dont want another situation like this in the future. Well done by the umps, the manager, and the players staying on top of everything and double checking everything. Even the cards manager said there wasnt a problem with the bat besides it being a safety issue.
@@waynealan3067 You’re the dumb one here. Bad officiating is usually when umpires do something extra, interpreting rules in novel ways or overreacting to a player and ejecting him. This was the umps being conservative and not making up any new shit. Let’s review: 1) Cards’ manager asks them to check the equipment. 2) Umpires determine bat hasn’t been illegally modified, but is damaged equipment. 3) Umpires remove bat from game as it might be hazardous. 4) Play stands. Nothing extra about that. Everyone doing their jobs.
Baseball officiating has been taking it on the chin a lot this year--rightfully so--but can we take a minute to admire how well they handled this one? Lots of communication, logic, verification. No panic, or rush judgments. They didn't know at first but worked through it while being transparent with all parties. Good stuff.
Disagree. They actually told him he wasn’t allowed to use the bat any more before finding out anything about the rules. Cards have a point. If the bat is not allowed for safety reasons he should t have been allowed to use it.
@@r3d5ive87 Don't quote me, but I saw someone say the rule doesn't specifically say the violation makes the at-bat not count. The batter just can't use the bat going forward because it's more of a safety issue and not a competitive issue.
@@r3d5ive87 This is exactly like the pine tar game with George Brett. It is not allowed but since it doesn't offer a competitive advantage, what happens with it stands. He's just not allowed to do it again
I love an ump that has the gumption to say, "Yeah, I dont know on this one." Ego is the death of the umpire and the fact they were willing to check the rule book when asked rather than just make a knee-jerk judgement is awesome. Good job blue!
It’s a good call. Your not going to know every minute detail of the rule book, so sometimes you come across instances where you simply don’t know what to call. Wish more umpires understood this. It’s okay to not know, as long as you not knowing isn’t about a major aspect of the game (like how to call a strike or what a general out is).

There are a lot of really good, relatively young umps out there. I find that the fewer officials I know by name in a given sport, the more I tend to enjoy watching the games, because officials aren't making it about themselves. Angel Hernandez and Joe West both love making the games about themselves.
The past precident, as this has happened before in the 1930s , 40s and 50s, is that if the opposing team or officials notice a chipped or broken bat, they must object BEFORE the at-bat, not after. If they admit that they saw it before he came up, they can’t challenge after. This is not a rule but the precident set in earlier games that were appealed. This is what the MLB officials ruled in the prior instances. The precident is clear, they should make it a rule. This would resolve the confusion as it is becoming an issue again, apparently.

I feel like this was a spectacular example of good sportsmanship from all sides! The coach asked for verification because, while it was impressive no matter what, it's important to make sure to protect the integrity of the game as well. Of course there's a little bit of metagaming going on by hoping the run won't count but like, I feel the integrity is worth it
From what i understand there is precedent to this rule though in that it has to be done before the At bat. Considering how long this one went with a few foul tips and a ball to only say something after a Grand slam is anything but good sportsmanship. It 's trying to weasel the rules in your favor. It's like playing a game for 8 innings in the rain and calling the game for weather in the 9th because your losing.
This is the calmest exchange that involved umpires I’ve ever seen, especially for the fact that these are two division rivals, and castellanos had already pissed off the cardinals earlier this season.
Me who doesn't like baseball: Watches the whole thing* Also me: "How much would the bat sell tho" + Used by a well liked player + Chipped (A sign of usage) + Caused mass confusion in baseball authorities + A slight contraversial item seen on TV + Used in a Grandslam even while chipped
I like how Phil made it a point it seemed to be like hey man, we're not saying you're cheating but too avoid the bullshit, just switch it up. Also good on Nick Castellanos for being a good sportsman and not getting pissed off the rip and then giving the bat to a fan!
I was watching this game. He gave the fan the bat after he hit the home run before the manager came out to say, "Check the bat". That is why the Cardinals were like, "Hey he just gave the fan the bat". He hit 2 HR's back to back and gave the fan the bat?? What player gives his bat away after back to back jacks? It looked a little suspicious. He had been using the chipped bat for a couple days. So what the video didn't show was Nick had to go get the bat from the fan when the umps said they wanted to check it.
you being able to make baseball content appealing to people like me who would never watch it otherwise is remarkable, keep spreading your loves to the people around you.

Likely chipped it on the 1st long ball and was his favorite bat for that time. I had my bat taken once because I had torched it with a flame thrower for looks and the smell only and I loved the smell of burnt wood like a camp fire. Did it again many times after that. Just somethings people like.
That bat also hit a 2 run homer earlier in the game and I believe he did well with it in game 1. That bat has been making moves. At least 6 runs that night.
this was handled so maturely. nobody tried to raise their voice, things stayed calm and umps actually cared to make sure they were doing what's right in this scenario. well done by everyone.
For those that want the rule Rule 6.06 (d) the batter is out when: He uses or attempts to use a bat that, in the umpire’s judgment, has been altered or tampered with in such a way to improve the distance factor or cause an unusual reaction on the baseball. This includes, bats that are filled, flat-surfaced, nailed, hollowed, grooved or covered with a substance such as paraffin, wax, etc.
Contact with the chipped part could theoretically cause an unusual reaction on the baseball in regards to a usual reaction being caused by a non-chipped bat. Just an opinion, I still think the slam stands.
@@Top10WizardReviews correct if the ball hit the chipped part then he would have been called out but since it hit the barrel the umps went "its broken let's just get it out of the game"
@@smittyvidz25fire84 for sure, and since the rule states the unusual bat must "improve" the batter's chances, its correct to let this grand slam stand. All around a really interesting situation lol
Can’t even be mad at the umps if your a Cardinals fan. They had no clue. And did a good job handling a first time issue like this. And good for Nick C for giving that kid the bat. All around a good call and helpful breakdown.
The other day my son watched his first baseball game with interest. He was very curious about the field and asked if the grass grows like that, I told him that they cut the shape out, they’ll take out a machine and chalk the baselines. And he saw the crew smoothing out the dirt and he asked about that; so I told him they do maintenance on the field during and outside of games. I told him they use manure to take care of the grass, he asked what manure was and I replied “HORSE SHIT!!” Memories 😊
Grounds crew for a major league ball club is a great position. Keep him interested and you will have both free lawn care for life, as well as your kid having a good career

Im not a fan of baseball but im just a sports fan in general, with that being said; this was an absolute pleasure to watch. Thanks for the videos jomboy, i appreciate being entertained by your content! Also if i may suggest doing more sumo break down videos i love your takes 🤣
Same here. Never really followed baseball, but Jomboy's interesting and funny commentary of odd happenings and obscure rules is just great. His knowledge of the game + his way of simplifying it make it interesting to both fans and people like us. ESPN lost its way a long time ago and most of its commentators are unwatchable, but I can watch Jomboy highlights all day.

Castellanos has used that same bat with a crack in it for about a week now and even hit a HR with it in the first inning and they never said anything about it then
Umps probably noticed it but didn't think it was advantageous. No point in making a big deal out of it unless a formal complaint is made. Also baseball players are very superstitious so my guess is he liked the feel of the bat and had some success with it so he wanted to keep using it
2nd home run in consecutive at-bats is probably a decent reason to do a check then, particularly if this chipped, imperfect bat has followed him for a week.
They’ve been slowly replacing the umps with robots over the years, right now the umps are now 15% robots. Next year they will have robotic right eyes. This would explain the synchronization in their turns, a simply glitch in the system
@@texasrangersfanatic1541 If Hernandez and West were the "test models" or "prototypes" then they need to abandon the robot Ump project. That sh!t was a massive failure if *that's* what they got from it....
"I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith, as there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that'll be a home run. And so that'll make it a 6-1 ballgame. I don't know if I'm going to be using this bat again. I don't know if it's going to be for the Reds. I don't know if it's going to be for my bosses at Fox."
Jomboy does it again. There are very few things in this life that spark as much joy in my life than seeing a new video by Jomboy. Thank you for entertaining all of us to breakdown some of the absolute most odd things but definitely the most enjoyable sports moments not all of us have the pleasure of catching live. Thank you.

Classy move by Castellano, that kid will have a lifelong memory and a souvenir to boot. It reminds me of an incident at a Laker game, when Rick Fox dove after a ball that was heading out of bounds and wiped out a whole bunch of spectators in the front row, including a little boy. The kid was scared and crying. Rick tried to cheer him up, but had to rejoin the game. When the game ended, Rick grabbed the game ball, made a beeline to the kid and gave him the ball. Picked him up, posed for photos, etc. Love it!

Not only that, but it's not just a regular bat either, a controversial chipped bat. Pretty cool.
I’m not much of a sports fan, but I do find that aspect of baseball neat. Not a whole lot of sports where you get an opportunity like that.
If you're sitting right on top of the dugout like that, you're probably having a lot of good days.
Just to ruin the mood, that bat is probably worth millions, lol. His grand kids are gonna sell the shit out of it in like 80-90 years, lol.

You should do a breakdown of Abraham Toro's grand slam off of Kendall Graveman on Tuesday. The two players were traded for each other at the deadline.
and as a stat that exists but doesn't matter he'd the only guy to hit a slam off a pitcher they were traded for earlier in the season
Graveman had a low earned runs in all of his starts until Tuesday.
It was also a game-winning grand slam in the bottom of the eighth, just like Dylan Moore hit on the night before the trade.
@@Yumi_Jay yep he’s 5-1 with the Astros

Not a just game used GRANDSLAM bat it was covered by JOMBOY so it now priceless
bro fr
This is the day that he became the president of the united states.
Wow that bat would've been worth a ton of money, but then Jomboy had to go and tank it's value
That boy can probably sell that bat and have decent education for it.
Plot Twist: The kid sawed the bat in half. It was loaded with cork
I feel like this was a spectacular example of good sportsmanship from all sides! The coach asked for verification because, while it was impressive no matter what, it's important to make sure to protect the integrity of the game as well. Of course there's a little bit of metagaming going on by hoping the run won't count but like, I feel the integrity is worth it
Integrity is checking the bat before he makes the hit.
From what i understand there is precedent to this rule though in that it has to be done before the At bat. Considering how long this one went with a few foul tips and a ball to only say something after a Grand slam is anything but good sportsmanship. It 's trying to weasel the rules in your favor. It's like playing a game for 8 innings in the rain and calling the game for weather in the 9th because your losing.
This is the calmest exchange that involved umpires I’ve ever seen, especially for the fact that these are two division rivals, and castellanos had already pissed off the cardinals earlier this season.
Not much of a rivalry if cardinals are always winning.
"He's a new enemy now, and I'll remember that forever." Welcome to my life.
Cards made reds their bitch
Me who doesn't like baseball: Watches the whole thing*
Also me: "How much would the bat sell tho"
+ Used by a well liked player
+ Chipped (A sign of usage)
+ Caused mass confusion in baseball authorities
+ A slight contraversial item seen on TV
+ Used in a Grandslam even while chipped
For that one, it would sell for $1,750- $2,000 easily. But at auction, that would go up to $17,000. Auctions draw in some wealthy bidders
@@blakec3456 nice , thanks. I never knew bats could go for that much 🤯
@@punisher8632 That bat wouldn't go for anywhere close to what that dude said lol
@@DrewB2400 😂 damn
Clearly not as much as if he had gotten Castillanos to sign it on national television! Then give it about 20 or 30 years.
Bravo Umps, and big ups to Castellanos for giving the bat to that kid. He seriously just made that kids entire childhood.
“I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith, as there’s a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that’ll be a home run.”
💀💀💀
😭
More Castellanos videos please! 🤣
HAHHAAH i knew i would fucking find a comment like this hahaha
😂😂😂
After so many bad umpire calls and interactions it’s refreshing to see umps actually handling stuff correctly and civil
I was waiting for Castellanos to yell “That’s horseshit” when they told him the manager asked to check the bat. Let’s go!
HORSE SHIT!
Horse schilt
leeet's fuuuuuuuucking gooooooooooo hahahaha
I like how Phil made it a point it seemed to be like hey man, we're not saying you're cheating but too avoid the bullshit, just switch it up. Also good on Nick Castellanos for being a good sportsman and not getting pissed off the rip and then giving the bat to a fan!
To*
@@stripeybeast haha good catch.
@@stripeybeast to*
Go see what Nick said about it after the game.
I was watching this game. He gave the fan the bat after he hit the home run before the manager came out to say, "Check the bat". That is why the Cardinals were like, "Hey he just gave the fan the bat". He hit 2 HR's back to back and gave the fan the bat?? What player gives his bat away after back to back jacks? It looked a little suspicious. He had been using the chipped bat for a couple days. So what the video didn't show was Nick had to go get the bat from the fan when the umps said they wanted to check it.
you being able to make baseball content appealing to people like me who would never watch it otherwise is remarkable, keep spreading your loves to the people around you.
shoutout to that camera guy too for that home run ball follow, guys a madman
1:34
That’s legitimately an amazing follow lol
Yep… that’s what Jomboy said…
@@mrdiippzzz7444 fr. This comment is as if he is pointing it out or something. 😂
Oh god a castellanos video. Hope everyone is safe out there watching this.
This might be the last time i put on this headset
I dont watch baseball but your videos are so in depth and well narrated I cant get enough. Great content!

Entertaining & Controversial
I think everyone won on this one: STL/Umps/Reds got a rule cleared up, Nick got a Grand Slam, and a kid got a memento that he’ll remember forever. Baseball is amazing sometimes.
Cards > reds
Who said that? The manager? Ok, well he’s a new enemy… forever. Nailed Casty’s inner dialogue 😂
"He's a new enemy now, and I'll remember forever" greatness
this, right after they rolled back a 2-run homer because of a boundary-rule, definitely made for an interesting game

what happened?
@@JohnSmith-fq7hj Ball hit on top of wall but didn't totally clear the yellow and bounced back in play.
I remember when Ian kinsler slid me his bat when I was younger and It was awesome
The other funny part is that Castellanos had already hit a 2-run homer with this bat, so not sure why it wasn’t questioned then
Maybe they didn’t notice at the time, maybe it wasn’t chipped then?
Likely chipped it on the 1st long ball and was his favorite bat for that time. I had my bat taken once because I had torched it with a flame thrower for looks and the smell only and I loved the smell of burnt wood like a camp fire. Did it again many times after that. Just somethings people like.
@@maxcrss2845 this was the second game of a double header, he had chipped it in game one
Because it wasn’t a grand slam😂
@@b1lly137 it was chipped against Miami, he'd used it during that series as well.
That's such a badass souvenir for the kid
That kid will never forget it ever. Dad probably going to buy a glass case for it.
Any game used bat would be insane. But a game used, grand slam hitting, chipped bat that stopped the game for 10min. Mental souvenir!
Kid’s probably wondering why there are wires and electronic components inside the bat.
@@HarryCrackz A chipped bat for which the umpires had to call to get "second" opinion ... that's MLB history
That bat also hit a 2 run homer earlier in the game and I believe he did well with it in game 1. That bat has been making moves. At least 6 runs that night.
It’s always cool when players make a young fans day like that.
I’d also ask for a check if I got slammed like that
Yo momma Obama
Thank you. I wanted to post some shitty comment about how this is way too much drama for not being a soccer game but the comment saved me. Thank you.
Hey DSG daddy
Cards slamming reds right now R.I.P. reds 🤣
this was handled so maturely. nobody tried to raise their voice, things stayed calm and umps actually cared to make sure they were doing what's right in this scenario. well done by everyone.
You mean people acting like normal grown adults? lmao
@@ServantOfTheSouth are you new to this channel?
I really like it when players give kids game-used things. It makes their days and its always a happy moment
Seeing that little boy's reaction to getting that bat was absolutely priceless. Good job Nick.
For those that want the rule
Rule 6.06 (d) the batter is out when: He uses or attempts to use a bat that, in the umpire’s judgment, has been altered or tampered with in such a way to improve the distance factor or cause an unusual reaction on the baseball. This includes, bats that are filled, flat-surfaced, nailed, hollowed, grooved or covered with a substance such as paraffin, wax, etc.
There wasn’t anything tampered with or a substance.
Contact with the chipped part could theoretically cause an unusual reaction on the baseball in regards to a usual reaction being caused by a non-chipped bat.
Just an opinion, I still think the slam stands.
@@Top10WizardReviews correct if the ball hit the chipped part then he would have been called out but since it hit the barrel the umps went "its broken let's just get it out of the game"
I also feel like the way it was broke if Interfered with the way the ball was hit it would hurt batter more then helped him
@@smittyvidz25fire84 for sure, and since the rule states the unusual bat must "improve" the batter's chances, its correct to let this grand slam stand.
All around a really interesting situation lol
This was well done. Legitimate question asked and answered. Call stands, clarification made. No harm, no foul!
Can’t even be mad at the umps if your a Cardinals fan. They had no clue. And did a good job handling a first time issue like this. And good for Nick C for giving that kid the bat. All around a good call and helpful breakdown.
The Cardinals are a team of douches. Still pulling LaRussa level BS.

I love how Jomboy always gives camera guys credit when deserved
Castellanos is such a nice guy for handing that kid the bat. Definitely made his day.
He actually gave it to the kid right after he hit and then had to get it back to show it to the umps.
Castellanos is going to be his favorite player for life
great thing to witness it.
Quick way to get rid of evidence.
And definitely not corked if he gave it away...
I know nothing about sports but your voiceover was funny AF " I'll remember that FOREVER." WAS EXACTLY HIS FACE 😂
kids getting the bat is wholesome
Sounds abusive. I'd never take a bat to a kid.
Didn't you play druid long ago lol, surprised to see you here xD
Maybe he gave it to the kid to get rid of the evidence of a corked bat. jk, but.... we'll never know
"He's a new enemy now and I'll remember that FOR-EVER" lmfao this dude a comedian.
Wait, that lip reading had my sides in orbit, kudos to the breakdown for all of this.
I was at this game last night! I knew this would be on Jomboy as soon as this shit started. Was a great game.
The other day my son watched his first baseball game with interest. He was very curious about the field and asked if the grass grows like that, I told him that they cut the shape out, they’ll take out a machine and chalk the baselines. And he saw the crew smoothing out the dirt and he asked about that; so I told him they do maintenance on the field during and outside of games. I told him they use manure to take care of the grass, he asked what manure was and I replied “HORSE SHIT!!”
Memories 😊
Grounds crew for a major league ball club is a great position. Keep him interested and you will have both free lawn care for life, as well as your kid having a good career

This was the most wholesome breakdown by you and the MLB.
As a Detroit tigers fan I witnessed this dude coming up the many bad years he gave us, then becoming a powerhouse, whether he plays for us or not I'm proud to see him become the player hes become
Cardinals and the Reds, both great fan pleasing clubs. And, this resolving without any raised voices... great roll models, too. That kid getting a grand slam bat... Core memory, right there.
Wow, that was the most polite and cordial manager/player/ump situation I've seen in years lol

Same here. Never really followed baseball, but Jomboy's interesting and funny commentary of odd happenings and obscure rules is just great. His knowledge of the game + his way of simplifying it make it interesting to both fans and people like us. ESPN lost its way a long time ago and most of its commentators are unwatchable, but I can watch Jomboy highlights all day.

IN MY VIEW
Referring to the cracked bat simply as a 'safety issue' was perfectly said. All handled this well. Your narration is right-on superb.
The most often misspelled word in nearly 1000 Jomboy breakdowns: “realy”. Yes, really!
Respect to Sonny Gray for batting .156. Higher than my Little League avg lol
Gray, Castillo and Miley are all hitting above .150this year, they're right up there with Eugenio Suarez
@just another squigga Its a joke ruh
You did really good on this weird moment, keep ‘em coming 👍🏻🍺🇺🇸
“Wasn’t going to say anything initially “ . . . until he hit a grand slam.
Castellanos has used that same bat with a crack in it for about a week now and even hit a HR with it in the first inning and they never said anything about it then
He broke this one in Miami
It's possible no one noticed at the time and/or realized there was a rule about it
Umps probably noticed it but didn't think it was advantageous. No point in making a big deal out of it unless a formal complaint is made. Also baseball players are very superstitious so my guess is he liked the feel of the bat and had some success with it so he wanted to keep using it
2nd home run in consecutive at-bats is probably a decent reason to do a check then, particularly if this chipped, imperfect bat has followed him for a week.
@@catman-du8927 Or they held on to this knowledge and used it when it benefitted them most. Kinda shady, but not breaking any rules.
You do such a great job with all the videos on your channel
Umps do a synchronized turn at 3:29
They’ve been slowly replacing the umps with robots over the years, right now the umps are now 15% robots. Next year they will have robotic right eyes. This would explain the synchronization in their turns, a simply glitch in the system

Gave the kid a bat and put a huge smile on his face - class. Good job.
Like that shoutout to the camera guy. Jomboy always finds something wholesome in a chaotic game!
Classy move by Castellano, that kid will have a lifelong memory and a souvenir to boot. It reminds me of an incident at a Laker game, when Rick Fox dove after a ball that was heading out of bounds and wiped out a whole bunch of spectators in the front row, including a little boy. The kid was scared and crying. Rick tried to cheer him up, but had to rejoin the game.
When the game ended, Rick grabbed the game ball, made a beeline to the kid and gave him the ball. Picked him up, posed for photos, etc. Love it!
So we just aren’t gonna talk about how the background changes for the umps at 2:23
