Oh Dave. If only you could've seen these 2022 Seattle Mariners. They did it. They broke the curse. I can only imagine how good it would've sounded to hear you call out the walk off home run that put us back to October baseball. I was way too young to understand even words the last time we were there, and what I wouldn't give to have you back just for one final playoff game for us. But I know that regardless, you'll be with us in spirit, sitting next to Rizzs and Blowers and Sims. You'd really like Goldy, too. I'm sure you two would have an absolute ball in the broadcast booth. You've been such an inspiration for me in announcing and commentating, and you will always be my favorite announcer. Thanks for all the memories. Love and miss you.
what curse?
@@TheBatCave13 missing the playoffs for 20 years
He saw it.
@@FromDust2007he was always the light
He made a great call from above 🕊️
Not a day goes by where we don’t miss you Dave 😭
Truth!
You got that right, pardner! He WAS the best.
Not one day, and every time I listen to this, it is incredible and it breaks my heart at that same time.
When Cal hit that HR, my only thought was "It just continues. My Oh My!"
My late father and grandfather used to turn the sound off on the TV and put on the radio. Dave's voice was such a big part of my childhood, as I'm sure it was for most of us in the Northwest. "My oh my!" Indeed Dave. Rest in power.
My dad would do that too….
In Cleveland we've had Tom Hamilton all these years. I dread so much the day he goes. But this cat Dave Niehaus is the only guy whose calls hit me the way Hammys does. What a voice. His call on Edgar's double is the best call in my lifetime.
cheers Seattle. From Cleveland.
Earlier that day, I was laid off from a job I had for 17 years. Then I come home to the news about Dave. One of the worst days of my life.
To me it isn't a Mariners Game without his voice.
Rest in peace.
It will never be the same. We really got to listen to the best ever.
Back in the day we used to mute the TV and turn on the radio during Mariners games just to listen to him.
@@Mark-yu3pt we sure did! He was The best in the business
I bet Dave Niehaus is saying, "My, Oh My" when Cal Raleigh hit a walk-off home run to help the Seattle Mariners break their 21-year playoff drought.
Goosebumps. Every. Damn. Time. Nobody did it better.
To me the saddest thing is he never got to call a World Series. Miss ya Dave…
Nothing makes my eyes well up faster than a full bodied “SWUNG ON AND BELTED” from Dave.
After last night's win and clenching the wild card for the first time in years you can just hear Dave Niehaus with his MY OH MY :)
With Rick Rizzs beside him.
The man was a vital part of my childhood. I preferred to listen to the game unfold through Dave’s voice than watch it on TV. That was how great he was……
My dad used to watch the game on TV, but turn down the volume all the way and listen to the radio instead.
Omar bare handing the last out to first base for a no hitter is legendary!
The GOAT OF PLAY BY PLAY...RIP DAVE
Swung on and BELTED deep to left field, and that one will fly, fly away! My oh my! Besides his iconic catchphrases, what set him apart was his incredible enthusiasm. When he was announcing a home run, he sounds so thrilled he might as well have hit it himself!
Dave Niehaus will always be the “ Voice of the Mariners”! I am lucky to have the Commemorative Tribute Video of Dave’s calls! One of my prized possessions! To hear Dave call “The 116 Wins” “1995” Absolutely Wonderful! #TrueToTheBlue
I can't hear "THE OLD TIME RELIGION LIVES" without tearing up. Every darn time. God I miss Dave.
There has never been a more fun team to be a fan of for me than the mid 90s Mariners. The Kid, Edgarrrrrrrr, Bone, Big Unit, our skipper Sweet Lou. We had Arod and Tino for a bit. Fassero, Moyer, Wilson, Cora. All of that was made so much better with the legend Dan Niehaus on the call. My oh my!
I cannot count, or even begin to remember the numerous nights I was returning home in the Pacific NW, even as far as Southern Idaho, and listening to the game, highlights, and post-game. I would be tired, but his call of the game would keep me going. Rick Rizz played his role so well. Dave was the star, everybody knew it. People say Junior saved baseball in Seattle, but Dave exemplified the sport, called the game, and if you could visualize it, put you on the field, in the on-deck circle. His call of Dad and Junior going back-to-back has always resonated with me. Had the privilege of meeting him and Rick one day. What a remarkable man, both of them. Dave, you are missed sir!
I think Dave really enjoyed announcing Lou Pinella kicking his hat around the field.
Was thinking the same thing.
Nobody gives me chills/goosebumps/hair standing up easier than Dave!
this was the voice of my childhood. not many games i can watch of the 90's mariners i havent seen with my grandpa and dad. time goes on but sometimes i like to go back to appreciate the things ive seen that arent here anymore. miss your voice dave. it's calming to hear it again.
Has it already been 10 years?
I would love to hear the things he would call our new RoY!
Swing and a high fly ball deep to center field, back goes Lewis to the track, to the wall, makes the leap... AND MAKES THE CATCH! MY OH MY! I heard of Griffey-esque and Cameron-esque, but I just saw a LEWIS-ESQUE CATCH! Same direction as well, and he did a little Griffey tribute along the way and that got away of trouble from the A's!
9:50 Mmm, that delicious moment of schadenfreud when A-Rod came back to play against us.
I grew up going to the Kingdom and Safeco; I got quite a few balls signed by the 1997 and 2001 teams. So many good memories. I miss Dave.
I will never forget walking up all those cement ramps to get to the Kingdome nosebleed seats...
2:23 "Swung on and a fly ball hit deep into the gap in right center field. The Kid on his horse, back to the warning track, THE WALL, MAKES THE LEAP AND MAKES AN UNBELIEVABLE CATCH! My oh my!! He is down at the 380' marker. And it's one of the most incredible catches you will ever want to see. There is no way a human being gets to that ball." My favorite part of this call is how quickly he gets all those words in as the play is happening and the way he raises his volume when Griffey gets to the wall. Dave was an absolute treasure. Not even a Mariners fan, I just love listening to his calls.
I wasn’t alive to witness this man, but his voice sounds so excited to call these games.
Dave Niehaus= Best announcer in baseball.
Hearing his voice and jr’s swing… it’s what every kid imagined hearing growing up
I was at the ball game when Gaylord Perry won his 300th career game, Randy Johnson's no hitter and the year we won our first division title
Wow dude... I’m not even a Mariners fan and I wish I was you
Best to ever do it. Voice of my childhood. Wish he was here for this playoff run in 2022. MY OH MY
😂 This got me choked up, I know all these moments so well as a lifelong M's fan since the early 80's I was even at a couple of these games.
The something out of Star Wars call makes me crack up every time. Dave is truly the greatest ever.
Our boys made the playoffs Dave. 2022, miss you buddy.
Listening to Dave Niehaus was like talking about baseball with a good friend...miss you, Dave!
Beautiful - he brought enthusiasm, excitement, color, joy to the game... his sound, his phrasing, his energy are incredible. One of the best to ever do it. Thank you for posting this.
I can not believe it's been 10 years since Dave left us. I agree with you Joe Carey, these damn onions
Damn onions 😂
I totally agree with you, damn onions
Them damn onions
This voice was a huge part of why I love this team. This video makes me tear up.
Lou Piniella's tantrum is the one of the most beautifully dumb and best moments of Mariners' history. He was SO worked up, and he made SUCH an absurd fuss, and then you see Griffey giggling like crazy in the dug out, and Dave is clearly having the time of his life calling it.
I hit a grand salami today and it felt a little different than most. We miss you Dave ❤
If only Dave could see Kyle Lewis today, I’m sure he would enjoy watching him play. Dave you are missed
or Julio. Probably the only thing he really missed calling was Felix's perfect game.
Joe buck disliked this
Watching this with a smile on my face and tears in my eyes. The voice of my childhood right there. Miss ya Dave
What I would give to have heard Dave call Cal Raleigh’s walk off homer to break the drought….
Hmmm....
Dave Niehaus: Raleigh hits it to deep right field. That ball will fly away! Cal Raleigh has done it! THE SEATTLE MARINERS ARE GOING TO THE PLAYOFFS! MY, OH MY!
@@joesakic91 And just like that I’m right in my feelings
13 game winning streak. I'm thinking Niehaus is here doing his part as an angel on the field for these Mariners.
Man I got goosebumps just listening to this bring it back all those memories it's so awesome to witness
miss you Dave
my oh my
I can feel you watching down on every game Dave. Can't wait to celebrate a championship this decade with you 🙌
Whoa man knock on some wood or something
@@fitzrevo well we just clinched a berth 😅
@@fitzrevo it sounds like he thinks he's going to die or something
The M's are certainly overdue to get in the WS, I can't believe that they are the 1 team who has never clinched a pennant.
Dave got better with age!! He will always be remembered
Dave Niehaus is the best there is the best there was the best there ever will be...(f Brett Hart)
I knew what would happen if I watched this video, yet I did it anyways. We miss you Dave. Staying up past bedtime to listen to you as quiet as I can so my parents wouldn’t find out. They knew, but always let me listen to baseball.
The Old Time Religion Lives!! Ten years later and I still can’t stop crying. I miss you so much.
I'm right there with you Maria!
Thank you I needed a big cry today anyway lol.
I originally got interested in the mariners thanks to Jon Bois and Secret base doing their "History of the Mariners" documentary and like. God if they aren't wrong about Dave Niehaus making even the most most blowout games an absolute joy to listen to.
I rarely miss lost relatives, as in I don’t get emotional thinking about them but when I think about Dave and listening to him calling the games on KIRO when I was a kid and how I will never hear that voice again or experience baseball like that again it makes me sad and often does bring a tear to my eye. Dave felt like immediately family to me. I listened to him tell a new tale just about every night from Sept to Oct. He will never be forgotten.
Can't believe I missed this earlier! What an emotional rollercoaster
@11:15 I was able to go to one game, a Mariner's game, at the Kingdome as a kid, before it was demolished. The Kingdome looked like a giant clam, the Mariners won, and then before going back home we got Ivar's clam chowder in a bread bowl and the deal was SEALED.
Without Dave Niehaus or Ron Fairly it just doesn't feel like the Mariners.
GOAT....
Listening how he could broadcast a game will never be touched again. Dave had the ability to call a game with equal enthusiasm that had shown no difference whether it was mired in mediocrity or with one with late playoff implications equally. Granted there was always a bit of a home field advantage when the Mariners did something extra special that deserved an extra dollop of mustard. He was graced with the ability to transport someone into the environment, and paint the actions and surroundings with his words. I just wish that down the road we are graced with baseball broadcasters that can equal the talent and skill he carried and shared with us all.
I can't care quite as much about baseball without his voice that game out of the radio of my father's pickup as he drove all over the 509 or 208... the voice of killdeer in the pasture and Dave Niehaus on the radio were my signs of Spring. @2:43 of course (this play was before my time but I knew of it as a kid), Junior was injured by that catch... I've been through thinking I was really injured and wasn't and thinking I was fine but wasn't... I believe in just wishing for the best and otherwise waiting.
@3:31 "19 long years of frustration is over" 😅
@4:24 I ran out down the driveway and down the road yelling like the kid I was. I can't do that if the Zags win the Final Four over UCLA and the championship on Monday. But I have more sophisticated ways to celebrate, I suppose...
They don't make commentators like this anymore. They are all extinct I'm honestly trying hard to hold back tears and having goosebumps while rooting for the Mariners. Been a fan since 1996 right after witnessing the 1995 season. Go Mariners !!!
My oh my!
Dan the man Wilson
I was at the game where Dan the Man Wilson hit his inside the park grand slam. My dad caught a fly ball from it. I will never forget that. Go M'S.
Man.... unbelievable passion! So much better than the guy now who yells just to yell. no passion.
"Branding iron hot!!" Haha!!
Griffeys Homer @3:00 was absolutely tattooed 😳
The Mariners have a long history of having the best commentators in sports.
Mike Cameron's 4 Home Run Game in Chicago South Side wasn't in here what come on man that should be in here.
Great moments. Great calls. Emotional times. We miss you. Rip.
just imagine if he lived to call the days of julio rodriguez eugenio swarez and now teoscar hernandez my oh my
Love this mans voice. Embodiment of my childhoods greatest memories.
Dave Niehaus for the Mariners , Steve Raible for the Seahawks and Kevin Callabro for the Sonics all give me chills listening to their play by play calls. Awesome Trifecta. 🎉 you can feel the excitement
Hearing his calls always makes me tear up. Every time.
Nobody does it better
Break out the rye bread and mustard, grandma. Its grand salami time! My, oh my!
4:59 I love Dave narrating Lou going ape on that ump.
One of the greatest baseball announcers of all time! Such great passion in his voice!
Awe, Dave! I always think of my dad when I hear your voice. I can't tell you the big smiles you put on dads face. He loved the Mariner's, he never missed a game on TV or on KIRO Radio. My 2 brother's and my husband and I go to be at the King Dome with dad in 96 or 97. We miss you and the team from the 90's, so very much!
My Oh My!!! The greatest baseball caller ever.
4:08 this call will never get old
Truly the goat
Truly the only man who could pull off that Grand Salami line. Well, maybe Harry Caray, but it wouldn't hit the same.
The best to ever do it! We miss you Dave. The games will never be the same
Thank you. Dave was the greatest!! My only issue with this is that you didn’t include the lead up to the double. Dave called it. “The Mariners would love to get a base-hit into a gap, and they could win it with Junior’s speed…and, the pitch…” Of all the great calls, by the greatest, that call stands out as his very best. That moment was thee ultimate moment in Mariners history, so it only makes sense that it would be his best - and most famous call. Love you, Dave!
My oh my Dave..where do i even begin..I wouldnt have become as big a baseball fan if it wasnt for your calls. I would pay to listen Dave calls a routine single anytime. Now we get a different Dave who puts me to sleep on a homerun call. Smh.
I can't believe other teams didn't want to pick him up. I know the Mariners haven't yet even made the World Series, it's almost a shame that Niehaus' A+ broadcasting wasn't present at some of the most iconic baseball moments of all time. He seemed so pasionate about his craft though, and Mariners fans will probably remember him as the best announcer long after most of us are gone.
If you saw Julio Rodriguez then it would’ve been special. Fly away x27. Get out the rye bread and mustard in Texas
This right here is the good stuff.
Dave Niehaus- Greatest play by play voice ever. Griffey- Greatest swing ever.
He was my dad’s best friend dad. I grew up with them. He gave a baseball signed by the 95-96 mariners.
I was at that game when the Unit threw that no-hitter. I loved listening to Dave...My Oh My!
My entire childhood.
YESSSSSS!
just glad he got to call those games when griffey came back. that old time religion bit gets me goin
March 30, 2023. Best thing to listen to before the first game of the season.
@6:40 Eddie Bauer is another brand / company that meant so much more back then... The Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park (more of a Yukon Gold Rush Museum) at 319 Second Avenue South is...isn't just underrated, it's the museum about WHY SEATTLE BECAME SEATTLE! Eddie Bauer, Nordstrom's, The Bon Marché, came out of that Yukon gold rush, but no longer survive in a meaningful form. Where to go from here? I thought Boeing was one of the best, at least top 10 on the planet in the 1990s, now? I dunno what to think.
I can just imagine Dave cheering on the Mariners this year as they give hope to the fans of Seattle. They're doing some great stuff this year and I know Dave is proud.
Mr. Niehaus, you are deeply missed.
6:00 what was Lou so worked up about?! I'm surprised with that temper tantrum (he was well known for them as I recall) he wasn't thrown out, or was he, they just said he was going back to the dugout.
My oh my!!
