    9 straight fastballs in a clutch WS at bat against one of the most clutch WS hitters who absolutely feasted on fastballs. That takes some major cajones right there. Awesome.

    Bob was a year behind me in school and we went to the same elementary, jr high and high school. He grew up across the street from my sister-in-law. I was reminded by a mutual friend and member of his class that today is the 9th anniversary of his passing and just had to come back and watch this clip again. How none of this segment made it into Ken Burns Baseball documentary will always be a mystery to me. It is the most classic epic showdown of a rookie and a legend and the rookie won the challenge.

      Even a Yankee fan like me has to admit that this was one of the greatest at-bats in the history of baseball. A stare-down of two gunfighters locked in a pure duel. Welch on the mound, cool and poised...Reggie pressing, feeling the heat, and his reaction after strike 3 said everything. As you said, we know who ultimately won this war and Reggie definitely got his revenge. But on that night, Bob Welch had his moment, and his knockout punch of Mr. October is one of the game's unforgettable memories.

    As a lifelong Dodger fan, I hated the Yankees from 1951 on. So this was a great moment at 27 yrs old. I will go to my grave we had the better team vs NY in both 77 and 78. When Reggie hit his 3 HR's to clinch the WS Championship in 77, my live-in girlfriend and I went to LAX at 3 am to welcome the Dodgers back home to LA. About 2,000 OF us there. That would be 6 am NY time. The cool knuckleballer Charlie Hough....a disaster in relief all season, but great starter for Texas Rangers later....walked by us.s He was the one who gave up the 3rd HR to Reggie in game 6. But he had been very effective as a reliever throughout the WS. One reason he was cool, he wore the same Elvis Presley T Shirt under his jersey every time at the ballpark. So, I said to him, Charlie, you pitched great in the playoffs! And he smiled...took a drag off his cigarette...much like Fonzie would do!!.... and replied..."All except that last pitch to Reggie." What a great memory in Dodger baseball history for me!

    I was a junior in high school when this epic at bat took place in the World Series. I am from San Francisco so my 2 favorite teams are the Giants and any team playing the Dodgers. So I was cheering hard for the Yankees. I don’t know if this video does the intensity of this at bat justice. I was at the edge of my seat, then out of my seat pacing. Rookie fast baller Bob Welch pitching to Mr October Reggie Jackson. Reggie’s used every veteran move to try and shake this rookie during that at bat. When he ended up striking out his reaction was priceless. I hope some of you saw this live and for you youngsters if you do not feel the intensity of this epic at bat baseball may not be for you. Toward the end of the 1970s, which I consider as one of the greatest if not the greatest decade in baseball history

      @dzanier 8 лет назад +3

      +dsfddsgh It sure seemed that way, and let's not forget that if it hadn't been for Graig Nettles making about 4 run-saving plays in Game 3, the Yanks might have lost that game, at which point the series would've been all but over. This was a team that ran when they got momentum. The game 3 win was followed by an extra-inning win in game 4, and after that the Yanks just blew them out the last 2 games. This team did not get nervous. They were professionals. How a team deals with winning, but even more importantly, losing, tells you a lot about the team. These guys never got too high or too low.

    Bob Welch dated my mom for a year and passed away right before she was going to visit him. I had a wonderful year hanging out with him. He was the nicest, smoothest guy I have ever known. How they met is so cute but even better was their first date. He had a wheelbarrow full of food that he made and ran into the park to have a picnic with my mom. She was so surprised. He was obsessed with her and was so nice and loving. Fun little thing about Robert was that he loved dipping his pizza in milk. I know i know but hey, It’s kinda good! Rest in piece Bob. Gone too soon but still in our minds. Miss you.

    How menacing Reggie was when he was at bat. Welch stayed cool and challenged him, ballsy for a rookie.

    Burt Hooton started for the Dodgers, but was pulled after giving up a single to Roy White to start the seventh. (Hooton was charged with three earned runs in 6 innings, as White came around to score.) Terry Forster came in, and pitched the 7th and 8th, then allowed a single and a walk in the ninth, with a groundout in between. In came Welch with runners on first and second and one out, to face two extremely dangerous hitters: Thurman Munson and Reggie Jackson. Welch got Munson to fly out to right on an 0-1 pitch, and then what you just watched happened.

    Bob Welch, the last pitcher to win over 25 games. Did it in 1990 with the A's

    I was only 9 years old when that happened, but I was very upset because Reggie Jackson was my idol and I was a Yankee Fan then

    This AB made me a fan for life of baseball. I was a kid who liked the Yanks and didn't like Reggie. My last name is Welch. Remember it like it was yesterday.

    The only thing missing from this clip is that we don't get to hear Vince Scully call the at bat.

    so true what Max says about fans being on the field to help celebrate. That was a regular thing in the 70's and pretty much nobody got hurt and it wasn't a problem. That all ended at a Who rock concert in 1979 when the crowd rushed the doors trying to get in and some people were killed. After that crowd control at large public gatherings like concerts and sporting events changed.

    Reggie Jackson would later say, while interviewed by NBC's Tony Kubek before the next game, that he was angry at himself because he failed to realize the two runners would be moving on the 3-2 pitch (the only such pitch of the at bat). In other words, Reggie might have lost his concentration on the swinging strike three. His emotion was on full display walking back to the dugout and added to this unforgettable World Series moment.
