I went to school with Jacoby, he could dunk in 7th grade at like 5’6” dude has always been a stud
Wow crazy! Thanks for watching and commenting!!!
Most impressive thing I ever saw: I played against Matt Olson (Oakland's First Baseman) in high school in Georgia. His school, Parkview High, is #1 in GA every year. This guy went 4 for 4 against us with with 3 of the longest homeruns I've ever seen. One of them went 450-460 feet easily. This was before the metal bats were regulated, but still. Our team was pretty good, but we could tell he was a man amongst boys. Oakland took him first round that summer. Now he's mashing for them in the bigs.
ya boi E He was really struggling near the beginning of the season, but seems to be heating up lately
That's awesome!
Cool story.
I go to Brookwood so you know how I feel ab parkview...
So odd I see this comment the day he gets traded to the Braves knowing my beloved Freddie Freeman is gone..
Jacoby Ellsbury: 6-1, 195lbs - runs like a deer.
Haha yup!!!
Actually faster than a deer lol
Most impressive thing I ever saw. Coaching an 11u travel team in Alabama. USSSA Major tournament to qualify to go to Disney. Can't remember the name. In any event, we are warming up in the outfield, watching a 12U game between some team out of Las Vegas and one of the best teams in Alabama. Both have pitchers throwing 82 on our guns. One you never heard of, the guy from Huntsville. One you have heard of, Bryce Harper. As a coach, I of course watch other games, and had heard of this lefty on this 12U team from Las Vegas who has hit a home run or walked in every at bat in the tournament. I saw several of his homers, all over the 300 foot fences, even though the temporary fences were set at about 220-250 on these fields. I was wondering why in the world a team from Las Vegas would fly all the way to Huntsville, AL to play in a tournament, and the word was that they failed to qualify in the tournament out west, and really wanted to go to Disney to the National Major USSSA event there, and this was the last tournament in the country to do so. In any event, I figured the Huntsville team would walk him every at bat, since at this time he had already played about 3-4 games, and hit about 6-7 homers. No, they pitch to him every at bat. Walked him once, and he hit 3 homers the other three at bats, one inside the 300 foot fence, and 2 opposite field shots about 350 feet, right over our heads. They ended up winning 4-2 and qualifying for Disney. Harper ended up going 12 for 12 that tournament, with 11 homers and one double, and the rest walks. Fun story, I told my kids that that kid was going to be famous some day, and to get his autograph. Only one of my kids did it, and still has the ball.
Elite story here. Good stuff!
That deer story was hilarious lol.
Haha thanks!!!
Probably not much else to do for Ellsbury back in the day in Madras, Oregon. My cousin's and I would try to catch the jack rabbits at our grandparents house in Culver, down the highway from Madras. We were all pretty fast too.
There is a story that went around in 1986 or 1987 that George Bell challenged Bo Jackson to a 100 yard sprint up the foul line. Bo said that he would give George a 10 yard head start and beat him by 10 yards. Then he went out and did just that!
Because Bo Jackson was and is the most athletic human alive! He did things on a baseball field that only football players could or would do, if he had pitched he would have been around 95-98
Crazy!!!
He ran 6.1 60 yards
And as Bell walked away from the race, he just shook his head and repeated, “Bo Knows...”
Jacoby was probably playing dumb about his time, because he knew if he was honest it would be impossible to find a partner!
For sure!!!
legit greatest story ive ever heard
Haha thanks!!!
Legit spit out my froot loops when you mentioned he caught a deer. Thats awesome lol.
Hahaha sorry about that! Thanks for watching!
“I tackled a deer!” 🦌 🤔👍🤷♂️💯
Haha!
Thank you for that awesome story! I appreciate your videos. Good job.
You’re so fun to listen to! Thank you for sharing this story! Jacoby Ellsbury was my fav as a lil girl! Love hearing this!
Love the videos, thank you for giving us a look into your sick ass baseball career and experiences! Keep it up man much respect to you
No problem thanks a bunch!!!
Another cool story bro. Love the videos. You're honesty and transparency is really cool. Keep up the vids.
Thanks!!! Thanks for watching!
why doesn't this have more views, one of the best stories ive ever heard lmaoo
Matt that's a terrific and hilarious story! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! Thanks for watching!
My Dad fell in love with him after witnessing the speed in person at Fenway a few years ago. (LOL) "You should have seen this guy!."
Yup he can really run!!!
I once tackled a beer, does that count?
Counts for me! Thanks for watching our stuff!!!
That is hysterical - "good information to have about 5 minutes ago"
Great story!!
My son used to switch hit when he was younger. He throws left, and pitches, however he had a 12u coach that encouraged him to pick a side, so he started hitting right. He was recently told by club level coach at 15 that a lefty who hits right is a disadvantage, and that he should switch hit. However his swing on right side is very solid, and he routinely hits doubles and triples from the right side, and rarely strikes out. Should he work on his left side?
Herschel Walker raced trains in rural GA.
A 619 is when Rey Mysterio flips around the ropes and kicks the guy proned on the second rope
bigsmokiee55 😂😂😂😂😂
Nice!!!!
LMAO so true to bring this up
We need more of these stories Matt hahahaha
Bo ran 3.6 to first base from the right side. Trea Turner ran 3.4 from the right side
When I ran the bases it looked like I was dragging a grand piano.
New shirt!!! 👍
Dude that is crazy, never knew he was that fast!! Seems like a nice guy too
Yeah he could fly!!! And very nice guy
I live in Wareham I never miss a Wareham Gatemen cape cod baseball league game! Also love the videos BTW
That is great! And thanks!!! Thanks for watching!
"That would have been another story that would have been useful about five minutes ago."
Comedy gold, Matt.
Comedy gold!
Lol thanks!! Thanks for watching our videos and commenting!!!
How do players usually react to rule/strategy changes? Replay, pitch clock, etc. or like radical shifts, focusing on launch angle - whatever. It seems like every broadcaster has a problem with the game changing and I was wondering if players felt the same way. Love the channel - this is the best inside baseball stuff on RUclips!
Thanks! I don't think it bothers most players. They just get used to it I'd say. Thanks for watching!
Most impressed i’ve ever been is seeing that this video has 465 likes and NO dislikes. Well deserved too.
Yes! Thanks a bunch! Thanks for watching!
Anyone that would dislike MA is a tremendous ASS HAT.
Jeremy hermida.. dude hit a flyball so high with backspin are first baseman couldnt catch it n he got a double..quickest bat i had ever seen!!
Holy crap thats Mantle fast! Ive read that Brett Gardner was that fast also
You gotta re-upload this or make a new video of the same story with a new title mentioning his name, this should have a couple hundred thousand views
That's funny. In life I've found that every time I personally thought I was getting good at something .along comes someone to bring me back down to earth
Thanks for giving us a inside scoop in the big leagues Matt!
No prob! Thanks for watching!
One gifted athlete talking about another.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
So what did Bo Jackson and Deion Sanders run if Elsberry ran a 6.19?
Good question! lol. Thanks for watching!!
According to Art Sewart, the legendary scout for the Royals, Deion ran a 6.3. Bo ran 6.1
I’m cracking up rn he ran down and tackled a deer 😂
I'm cracking up where Matt says "this information would have been useful 5 minutes ago so I could go race a catcher or something."
Billy Hamilton must run a sub 6. What do you think?
Next video can you tell us what bat you used???? Please I am really interested!!!
Louisville Slugger C271
Funniest episode ever! No matter how good you are at something, there is always someone out there better than you. Sports are humbling.
Your awesome
Thanks!!!
Perfect Game recorded a 5.9
Great story! But what is the most impressive thing you have seen while on the field actually playing in a baseball game? Not just the most amazing athletic feat, but what is the most impressive baseball play that you have experienced while on the field, in the game, at any level? One of the many fascinating things about baseball is that there is no one physical type of man that it necessarily favors, yet it always rewards all types of athleticism. It is truly the game of the everyman and of every man. Any man can play it, yet no man can master it. A game whose object is defeat.
Lol that's hilarious 🤣 he said yeah that would have been useful 5 mins ago.
I played against Billy Wagner in college, dude threw probably 10-15 mph faster than what we were used to seeing at that level, felt like it was a good AB if you even fouled one off
Haha!
That's hilarious.
Have you ever been star struck by another player? Like nervous/ thrilled to meet or play against...looked up to growing up and got to meet him and play against him.
Little bit my first year playing professionally. I have a video on it. Thanks for watching!!
Why is the 60 yd the tested distance? Bases are 30yds apart. Seems like a better distance to test. Unless you are running 2 bases.
That's a great question! Not sure why they do it at that distance
Because it’s the equivalent distance to running a double.
how does the Cal Ripken summer wood bat league compare to Cape Cod? I have a kid that just went to Tacoma T-Bolts in that league and didn't do Cape Baseball
It is a good league. Don't think it's like Cape though. Thanks for watching!
Jacoby Ellsbury: American professional baseball center fielder for the New York Yankees of Major League Baseball (MLB). He played in MLB for the Boston Red Sox from 2007 through 2013, and joined the Yankees before the 2014 season.
Ellsbury was first drafted by the Tampa Bay Devil Rays in the 23rd round of the 2002 MLB draft, but did not sign. He was drafted next as 23rd overall by the Red Sox in the 2005, after playing college baseball for three years at Oregon State University. Ellsbury was the first Red Sox player in history to be a member of the 30-30 club. In 2011, Ellsbury also won the Gold Glove Award, the Silver Slugger Award, and was the American League MVP runner-up to Justin Verlander. After the 2013 season, Ellsbury signed a 7-year, $153 million contract with the Yankees in free agency.
Ellsbury is an enrolled member of the Colorado River Indian Tribes; Ellsbury's mother, Margie, is full-blooded Navajo and his father is of English and German descent. Ellsbury is the first Native American of Navajo descent to reach the major leagues.
This is hilarious
ItsTehTwiitch “...So I could have ran against a catcher, or something...” 😂😂 Strategy can pay dividends! 6:25
Too funny about the deer then saying you would've ran against a catcher....hahahhahahaa
Thanks for watching!!
5:29 BOOYAKA BOOYAKA
I remember Kenny Lofton being fast. I wonder what was his 60 time
I wonder too! He could fly!
I have a question for a video. When were you most clutch in the majors or minors
Never haha! In minors I was. Can't remember the exact time though. Thanks for watching!
How can you get your 60 time faster
Which team do you root for the Red Sox or the Padres?
Neither now. I just watch the games don't cheer for anyone. Thanks for watching!
Playing varsity baseball in high school.. Coach says lets line up the 2 fastest on the team for the 60..so i get called to the line along with future Rockies draft pick Alex Fernandez..the coach drops the hat and we take off..long story short i cross the finish line 1st ..by a narrow margin..i look at Alex and say i got ya..he says to me look..pulls up his sweat pants and he had 5 pound ankle weights on each leg..we just busted out laughing..He was a amazing player who could really fly!!
Have you ever played against Jarrod Dyson or Terrence gore?
Dyson yes. Fast! Thanks for watching!
and he stole 70 bags in 09'. You weren't kidding.
Yup crazy! Thanks for watching our stuff and commenting!
Hey I'm only 13 and tho I'm not going for the MLB i am going for the NBA and how did you make it pro how did you overcome all obstacles to make it there because ... I want to do it too
I just worked hard for a long time. Always tried to improve each day. Good luck to you! Thanks for watching!
I see you "borrowed" Vanderbilt's logo now for your shirt
Troy Smith haha this is an old shirt. We tried it but I wasn’t as big a fan so we didn’t make anymore
U ever play against Felix
Yes few times in spring training. Filthy. Thanks for watching!
Dude caught a DEER?! Wtf don't they run like 30 MPH? That's fucking ridiculous
apparently Jerry Rice chased horses as a kid... some guys are just on a different level
Crazy!!!
Tackles a deer!
Jacoby ellsbury is hurt
I caught a cheetah once in my back yard.
Haha!
What’s a moment in ur career that one of ur teammates made a stupid play
Billy Hamilton used to race a jaguar
ACTUALLY HAPPENED
I believe it!
Nah bro it’s a quote from a RUclips channel it’s a joke about the channels name witch is ACTUALLY HAPPENED. you good bro awesome vids you earned my sub👍
Tackled a frickin deer 🧐
Haha not bad lol. Thanks for watching!
Isn't Brett Gardner and Jose Reyes faster?
Not sure. Thanks for watching!
Did you ever see yourself being a coach later in life? Did you always feel like you’d continue in baseball in some sort of direction!?
Yes I'd say even when playing in college I knew I would coach one day. Thanks for watching!
Your videos have given me so much insight on what it’s like to be drafted and go through the process. Gets exciting thinking one day maybe I’ll go through it too! Btw my birthday is the day after yours 😄
Is the language barrier between American and Latino players makes things more difficult to play as a team ?
I know im replying 4 years later but im in high school with a mostly English speaking team and then 3 Latinos and only 1 of them really speaks English and then there are a few English primary kids who are bilingual and a bilingual coach
Idk about all teams but we get along together really well. Typically like they won't hang out one on one since they can't communicate as well but as a team we all know each other super well and they're also really funny so we joke around and stuff
it honestly doesn't change a lot. In mlb typically a lot of Latinos speak English so that helps and there's a bunch of translators so im sure it's a lot easier there
Oh yeah, sometimes I just like to run around catching deer. :-D
Haha seriously!
Jacoby hunts deer by hand. Ya, that’s what’s up.
Haha! Thanks for watching!
Talk about Billy beans team.
Nobody:
Jacoby Ellsbury: One day I raced a deer and caught it.
Everybody: 😮
Moral of the story: Jacoby Ellsbury is faster than a speeding bullet... Literally
Fastest guys you have played
Will make a video!
Antonelli Baseball thanks man
I just wanna hear stories about guys that could really fly like Jacoby
Probably would have been a better story if he did tell you how fast he was because knowing you, you would have thought he was full of crap and still would have raced him with the same results. lol
Now the poor guy can’t even stay healthy.
Very true! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Can you tell us more about your family?. Isn't your Dad in baseball as well?. You're Italian?.
Did a video about my dad in my playlist. I'll make a video about my family
