Jesse Barfield (I played against him in a high school playoff game (1976) ...Lemont High School vs Joliet Central; our pitcher threw a 2 hitter and we lost 1-0), Roberto Clemente, Dwight Evans, Vlad Guerrero (Sr) and now ...Elly De La Cruz! I know he is an infielder but his relay throws from the outfield and his infield throws are amazing. De La Cruz has a cannon for an arm. I am a Reds fan and love watching him play.
when i was younger and played baseball, i was a pitcher and also center field because i was the only one who could throw from there to home plate if needed. i tried out one time for a softball team at center field and i threw the ball past the screening at home plate and everyone just looked like what the hell just happened, didnt make the team but had fun trying.
Growing up in Pittsburgh, I saw a lot of Roberto Clemente's arm in old Forbes Field. I've seen him throw out runners at 1st, 2nd and 3rd. . . back in the day, only fools ran on Clemente.
@@joespitler3929 I have to agree that he was just a notch below, but only a small notch when it came to talent. Clemente coudl carry the entire team on his shoulders.
Single bounce line drive to shallow right with a slow runner is the usual combination - but always a pleasure to see. Did it myself ages ago (unforgettable moment) and coach moved me to pitcher after that.
Yep, not to mention Rick Ankiel. Tell ya what though, after 60+ years on the planet, I've never seen a stronger arm than Dave Parker. That dude was huge and the ball came off his hand like a cannon shot.
In HISTORY ?? (and where is Volume I ?) And the talk of outfield throwing prowess begins and ends with Al Kaline. But not too much footage of him because there was not much TV coverage much of his career. Equal of Clemente, but had a quick release with no wind up that gave him an edge in my opinion. In fact is was a bit scary to witness.
What, not a single Mike Schmidt throw. He patented the bare handed catch and underhanded out at first. Golden Glove's are awarded for finishing the play, not keeping it from reaching the outfield
Cannons? n the beginning of the video Harper was almost at 2nd base and threw a one hopper to the plate. Not a cannon. How about throws by Evans from Boston or Ellis Valentine . They had cannons. Too many one hoppers from the outfield.
@@tonyru303 with the Bryce Harper throw yes I can understand criticism of the one hop throw while being so close to the catcher, but I was more referring to your statement about too many one hoppers in the outfield, which in most scenarios a one hopper to catcher from the outfield is ideal with a few exceptions.
Cespedes had two ridiculous throws that were as good as anything on either of your outfielder arms/plays videos. I'm just saying...It is criminal not to have his throws
Some absolutely gorgeous throws from these amazing athletes. Thanks for sharing!
Great job on this video. I love that there are calls from 2 sides.
Excellent edits with the multi-calls
I played a lot of cricket and had an ok arm, but what these guys can do is a whole other thing 😀
Same. You realise how little effort cricket players actually out into fielding when you see how baseball players train for it as well
i love how you show the broadcast vid and then the video where you get to see the flight of the entire ball to see how strong the throw is
The White Sox had an out fielder named Mike Hershberger. I was at a game where he made a throw from center field and the crowd actually gasped.

3:44 is amazing, not only cuz of the throw, but it's such a good call by the announcer

I remember The Great One as well
How about the Cobra? Dave Parker was a beast as well.
@@rickduncan362 Clemente was in a class by himself, but the Cobra was just a notch below.

@@rickduncan362 Cobra is 1 of the most underrated players. A hall of famer if you ask me. Had a 6-7 year stretch of dominance.
What could be more humiliating than stroking out a single to right field only to be gunned down at first.
@dakodafisher2034 that's an all timer lol. I can't imagine that ever happens again.

Bautista has some seriously iconic moments
Wow just Wow ⚾️
Best arms I ever seen Jesse barfield and Glenn Wilson aka GlennBo! ⚾️🔔
buxton play, about 4:10 in, cron at first base knows he's got the runner, just calmly gets the ball, steps on the bag, walks away like a boss.
Another great video. Thank you!
Shoutout to the catchers for catching missiles and making good tags
This right here
You've got a video about riflemen and you don't have Andre Dawson or Vladdy? I sure hope part 2 is in the works.
look at the title... It IS part 2!
Yeah or Bo Jackson either
Yep, not to mention Rick Ankiel. Tell ya what though, after 60+ years on the planet, I've never seen a stronger
arm than Dave Parker. That dude was huge and the ball came off his hand like a cannon shot.
@@moparedtn Right on about Parker. He was the king at 9 to 3 put-outs stealing singles.
No Acuna Jr either lol
you know it's gonna be an insane throw when the guy throwing it literally flips himself over from the force of his arm alone
Well done 👏
Machado 🔥💯
hey, where is Ichiro?
He took up all of volume 1.
and shinjo
Choo
Roberto celemete the greatest right field. of all-time tie with willie ways for most gold gloves as of with 12
Best arms I've seen Guillen and Vladimir Guerrero
Puig
Ellis Valentine had a cannon in right filed. He finished with 28 outfield assist in 1978.
Wheres the link to Volume 1?? And I hope Dave Winfield was in it!
Defense. The biggest reason I watch Major League Baseball
Sure hope you don't forget vlamir Guerrero. Now that man had a serious cannon of a arm.✌️

Gomez’s throw was clocked at 103? Hicks at 102? Dangggggg. Don’t creep on Froe, he has a cannon.
YAY!!! The Renfroe play made this video. But it was better than some of the "greatest throws in MLB history!!" BOOO
You should try to find more of the older clips. Start with Dwight Evans.
Haven't watched yet but there better be a Jesse Barfield clip
Nothing better than a 9-5 put out. Runner doesn't even see it coming until he's out.
i'm going to say this goining in, if Larry walker isn't on this one you're high
Barfield! He doubled up 8 runners in one season. Has anyone done that since? He's also got 3 seasons totaling 20 assists or more.
What, not a single Mike Schmidt throw. He patented the bare handed catch and underhanded out at first. Golden Glove's are awarded for finishing the play, not keeping it from reaching the outfield
Joc Pedersen in center field is fun
before replay must have been maddening to throw someone out by an inch and get a safe call
Where’s Bo Jackson? Vladimir Guerrero Sr? Trevor Bauer’s throw from the mound over CF wall?
Ichiro, Ankiel, Vladdy?
Manny was looking for the seams for his laser beam! at 0:42
Where is Rick Ankiel.
Wow
1:47 😮
So where is the rookie of the year michael harris that's the man
Why did third base have to look at the ball before he threw it?
Look to see if the hitter signed it.
SMH
So many greater arms left off this list. Dewey Evans, Red Sox, MICKEY and Willie? Are you kidding? Roberto Clemente? Rocky Colavito Detroit?
Dónde están los toros de ichoro Suzuki y el disparo de Ronald Acuña JR
How about YAZ in Boston????
wooooooow
Jessie Barfield?
Greatest throws from right field that I have ever seen.
Better check into Rick Ankiel
Greatest arms in "HISTORY"? Not. Some good plays but come on.
No Bo Jackson or Al Kaline or Roberto Clemente. These are all new guys who are very good but really?
Total clickbait. This is Gen z baseball
Dwight Evans!!!
It always astonishes me just how many directors and camera guys can’t properly film a throw to the plate. It’s embarrassing.
One word, Vladdy
You missed Bo Jackson's throws.
Roberto Clemente
No Clemente? Really?
01:47 Damn, and I do mean Damn.

Too many one hoppers from the outfield? That’s the idea, that’s what you want to do if you’re an outfielder throwing to the catcher.
@@bigblue2228 That's not the idea. He was not far behind 2nd base and a cannon arm could easily reach on a fly.
@@tonyru303 with the Bryce Harper throw yes I can understand criticism of the one hop throw while being so close to the catcher, but I was more referring to your statement about too many one hoppers in the outfield, which in most scenarios a one hopper to catcher from the outfield is ideal with a few exceptions.
Andre Dawson…..Paul O’Niel
Bo Jackson.
Vladimir Guerrero with the Angels from right field warning track to 3rd base blew all these away!!
Hmm, Bo Jackson, Paul O'Neil, Vllad G.
Deja tú la fuerza. La puntería
No Clemente?! SMH. 🤦🏼♂️
Ichiro is missing.
In spite of the annoying intro which earned my dislike, this was actually a really well made video with great editing to show off each clip.
Choo choo
0:29 Pujols is slow
What? No Dwight Evans? Are you nuts???
the definition of absolute PISS missiles
内野ゴロのレーザービームは日本のプロ野球では観られないな
These are just outs..... not cannon throws
Ichiro Suzuki
Where is Bo Jackson??
Ichro is best
Not complete without Ankiel
Didn't realize history started with the TV. Stupid title.
Bo Jackson did it best
I have seen much better.
This video is full of crap. I have seen so much better than any of these. Mr Roberto Clemente. Enough said!
Cespedes had two ridiculous throws that were as good as anything on either of your outfielder arms/plays videos. I'm just saying...It is criminal not to have his throws
