there are a couple texas rangers games...one against the tigers where cabrera ends up on third base (triple maybe?) adrian beltre walks over just as cabrera is getting up from the ground and dusting off, and cup checks him with his gloves. the camera just caught it. hilarious! another one, from the dugout cam, leonys martin was sitting with his hand squarely on the butt of another player, and slowly looks at the camera, knowing it's catching him doing this, and not caring. pretty funny! maybe not addities, but hilarity for sure!
I've been at a game where they play Elvis' "a little less conversation" when the opposing team has a meeting on the pitches mound. Those guys are always underappreciated
I love Randy Johnson's interviews. He's such an entertaining guy. Best one I saw was him talking about a home run Mark McGuire hit off him that seemed to go on forever. It's the day after the game and Randy's acting super serious saying how something about the homer didn't look right to him, so he'd snuck into the A's locker room late at night after the game and checked out McGuire's bats. He heaves a sigh and says he found something. Then he pulls up from behind the table one of those thin, yellow, plastic kid bats that's had a cartoonish looking cork stuffed into the top of it. Everybody cracks up, I'm laughing right along with them at home, and Randy is forever cemented in my mind as one of the funniest pro athletes I've seen.
Haha the hunny is like a pre workout thing to get your insulin to spike power lifters and shit do eat a bunch of glucose or sugars stuff before competitions lol
Meanwhile, that one game in Arizona had a swarm brewing in center field, and the first ball to be hit just so happened to go straight in that general direction
Randy Johnson is such a good interview. He's got a great sense of humor. In one interview, the day after McGuire (I think) hit and absolute gigantic home run off of him, he told the press that something about the home run felt off to him, so late at night he'd snuck into the other team's locker room and found a corked bat in McGuire's locker. And then up from behind the table he pulls up one of those skinny, plastic, yellow bats with a cork sticking out of the top of it. Still one of the funniest press conferences I've ever seen.
2:40 what's amazing about that oddity is that was the game where bottom of the inning, Bautista did the amazing bat flip and the entire stadium lost its collective shit simultaneously
As a british person watching this with no knowledge of baseball or presence of it in their culture, 4 things occur to me. 1. I enjoy the introduction of a melee weapon to popular sport. Here in the UK we do have cricket, but the objective is to kill the opponent with dehydration or exposure to the elements. 2. The thing where they touch you with their balls is adoreable, six foot muscle bound men jogging at eachother with intent to pat gently. It's like seeing a doberman licking a kitten's face. 3. The complex arrangement of people and curious terms is totally perplexing. Some of the rules make sense without them being explained, but at other times this is like watching bees. 4. Also, bees? I'm guessing that's not a regular feature? "AND NOW, FOR THIS GAME'S HALFTIME ENTERTAINMENT!!! ALL THE WAY FROM AFRICA! AFRICAN HONEY BEES!" *crowd goes wild*
Excuse you my british friend, but third-inning bee swarms are a time-honored tradition in baseball and I'll thank you not to trivialize them in this manner
I remember the Barry Bonds intentional walk. Every time my dad took me to Giants' games, I would look forward to seeing how scared the other team was to face him... and if they did challenge him, how badly he would make them suffer. LOL
That Seattle vs Florida Game in Seattle Because of the U2 Concert, along with Milwaukee vs Miami in Milwaukee, Along with LA Angels vs Cleveland in Milwaukee
5:05 I still can't believe that happened to the Reds. It was clearly a ground-rule double and no review? Refs almost RAN of the field and wouldn't even consider looking at it? Should have been man at 2nd and 3rd 2 outs...
What a great video man! Most videos like this use the same exact clips every single time. You took the time to find really unique stuff, which I think everyone appreciates. Keep em coming!
Fun fact: honey bees in the process of moving to a new hive are actually at their least dangerous because they have no hive, children or honey to defend. They usually do it when their old hive is too cramped, gets destroyed, or when the old queen decides to make a new hive and leave one of her daughters to run the old one. And usually during the spring.
My Top 3 Favorite moments *ever* in MLB history: 1. The Red Sox come back from a 0-3 game deficit against the Yankees in the 2004 ALCS. 2. Jason Varitek and Alex Rodriguez get into a bench clearing fight in the 2004 season at Fenway Park (Proud to say, I was at that game 😁) 3. Randy Johnson hitting a bird with his insane fastball (1 in a Googaplex)
About the bees: 1. Bees are abolutlely harmless, as long you're not threatening them. You can even hold your hand into a swarm. Nothing happens if you stay calm. 2. when bees are swarming, they are setteling with a new queen (and are even more harmless than normal) They are serching for a good spot. Bees settle when the original swarm becomes to big. Then they split up :)
Mr. Capps from Miami is committing an illegal pitch -- in umpire-speak it's called a crow-hop - pushing off the rubber then resetting his foot off the rubber as he throws.
They banned it a long time before this season. I don't know how that rule got unclarified so that Capps got away with what he was doing, but that pitch was never EVER legal
5:00 - raining inside a dome is odd enough, but it's Phoenix Arizona. We get like 4 inches a year out here. (Of course, means building codes aren't as strict. The dome at Chase Field is more designed to keep the heat out in the summer time.)
I love the fact that in two stadiums they call in bee keepers to save the quickly disappearing honey bees - In Yankee stadium they kill them - typical New Yorkers...
Honey bees are nowhere near disappearing. They may be declining compared to our needs for honey, but there are dozens of species of bees going actually extinct because of the predatory nature of honey bees
@@sturrrdy -- swarming bees don't attack. They are looking for a new home, but aren't actively attacking anything to find it. They attack when their home is being threatened.
Fun fact: the honey bee isn't native to the Americas, they are an invasive species brought over by European bee keepers. They cause more harm here then help as they kill off other species o3o
Hey, your channel is super underrated, great vid! I'd love to see a part three, including a play in 2013 (astros at rays) when Brandon Barnes made a diving catch in the outfield after the right fielder JD Martinez tipped the ball with his glove
what amazes me is the announcers know the rules better than the umpires do in the MLB. i constantly see umpires making mistakes and the guys in the booth know exactly what's going on.
If you pause the dead pigeon at 17:12 the pattern of feathers appears to be the Batman logo on fire on the side of the bridge in the Dark Knight Rises.
A queen bee has hatched and been kicked out of her hive by the existing queen, taking a chunk of the hive with her. They're setting out together to find a spot for a new hive. They land in big swarms like that, protecting the queen at the center. The survival of the new hive depends on her. The bees aren't likely to sting in this state (unless the queen comes under attack I imagine.) I think the beekeeper has to calm the swarm with smoke to capture the queen so they can move her, and the swarm will gallantly follow. I think they'll be moved to a proper home. EDIT: just spraying them dead en masse while they're spread out?? That...that's gotta be the worst way to deal with bees...
David Horgan I really hope you were making a pitiful attempt at being funny by doing an incredibly unfunny impression of a SJW. If you were serious, well, there’s no hope for you, pal.

Given where MLB is now in late July of 2021, it’s astounding in retrospect that the Molina play where the ball sticks to his chest protector wasn’t a ‘time out for the entire league’ moment.
7:27 did anybody else know this Mark McGwife guy was second to Barry Bonds in intentional walks? Somebody needs to sign that stranger cause he's apparently an unknown threat 🤣
Swarming bees like that don’t have nest to defend so they won’t sting unless provoked. They are swarming around a young queen that probably just left her mothers hive and they are looking for a site to nest.
Last month in in Indiana High School baseball, it may have been the game to go to the state finals, a team intentionally walked a kid 4 times in a game, the last one of which was just like the Bonds' one. It worked (though they were up by 4 before the walk). I honestly didn't blame the team for doing it, as Tampa Bay had taken him the 1st round the night before (32nd overall)
in 1956 next-to-last game of the year Mickey Mantle - who was being held out of the lineup by Casey Stengel to protect his Triple Crown batting average - was put in to pinch hit against the Red Sox and intentionally walked. I was there. I saw it.
I'll never understand why these videos don't show the end result of so many of these crazy, intense situations. It's like watching a murder mystery movie and before you find out who did it, they cut away and start a new movie.
I remember when they walked Barry Bonds that time. If I was Barry, I would have swung. Reached out. I remember a lot of viewers who were at the match and myself personally at the time thinking that Arizona legit stole that win. You can call it a strategy all you want, but there is a reason why this game is in the books as infamous. Not because Arizona won. But because Arizona were cowards in this particular game. The pitcher/team ran away.
@@_jakefarley Personally, to me....Arizona lost this match. Scared to deal with a single man? If you run away it's not a win. Period. History wise, yes, Arizona won. But it's hard to recover knowing that your teams fans legit jumped ship after that game. Don't get me wrong. They still have many fans, but it is known that many of their fans lost respect for their own team and stopped supporting them after that. Are you a fan of cowards? Because I'm not.
You do what you have to do to win the game. The concept of lineup protection is a real thing. If San Francisco can't force you to pitch to their superstar by putting a dangerous hitter behind him, and you can exploit their weakness for a win, do so every time. Strategy is always cowardly to the one who got outthought.
If you feel like I missed any let me know!

I'll never understand why these videos don't show the end result of so many of these crazy, intense situations. It's like watching a murder mystery movie and before you find out who did it, they cut away and start a new movie.
No! Not the bees!
That Berry Bonds bases loaded-walked was funny as shit. You don't see that very often.
Bees: see Baseball field
*its free real estate*
Shoeless Joe Jackson belongs in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
At 5:05, what was the ruling on that play? Was it a ground-rule double or not?
Just gonna comment on this to see whether someone responds with the answer
It was not a ground rule double - game was over. Can't appeal to the refs after the game.
I'm glad this was answered. I was frustrated that it didnt show a more definitive answer
He is the best juiced up player of his generation. Yea, I agree with that.
I remember when they walked Barry Bonds that time. If I was Barry, I would have swung. Reached out. I remember a lot of viewers who were at the match and myself personally at the time thinking that Arizona legit stole that win. You can call it a strategy all you want, but there is a reason why this game is in the books as infamous. Not because Arizona won. But because Arizona were cowards in this particular game. The pitcher/team ran away.
ChronisOfTheTwilight yes but who won?
@@_jakefarley Personally, to me....Arizona lost this match. Scared to deal with a single man? If you run away it's not a win. Period. History wise, yes, Arizona won. But it's hard to recover knowing that your teams fans legit jumped ship after that game. Don't get me wrong. They still have many fans, but it is known that many of their fans lost respect for their own team and stopped supporting them after that. Are you a fan of cowards? Because I'm not.
@@ChronisOfTheTwilight yeah but.... WHO WON
You do what you have to do to win the game. The concept of lineup protection is a real thing. If San Francisco can't force you to pitch to their superstar by putting a dangerous hitter behind him, and you can exploit their weakness for a win, do so every time. Strategy is always cowardly to the one who got outthought.
