*Derek Jeter is the only player in MLB history to start a World Series game with a first pitch home run (2000 World Series, Game 4) and end a World Series game with a walkoff home run (2001 World Series, Game 5).*
I was at this game. I remember walking into Shea just minutes before it happened and right as I went to sit down BAM.
I'll never forget it.
I remember watching this on TV, 9 years old. As a Flushing native I was happy as a pig in shit the Mets made it to the WS and my parents even let me stay up late to watch all the games. If I remember correctly, this was literally the first pitch of Game 4 (sorry if that's obvious). Even then I wasn't mad at Jeter, because you gotta respect talent. Except Chipper Jones...f*&% you LARRY
Any yankees fan realized that this homerun is the Yankeeography intro!
“…WAY BACK, LEFT FIELD…”
Yes!! I can't believe they'd use a homerun at Shea stadium lolol
That’s why I always liked Jeter he’s so relaxed and doesn’t feel the need to showboat
Facts
I mean he's not a homerun hitter so he always hustles out the box guys like Stanton and judge could watch theirs fly if they want
Even his first hr of career he was calm
His bat drop was so cool without looking like he’s pimping it
He’s a Killer, Robot, Machine, Winner!!
as a Yankee fan, and NY sports fan..i miss both Shea and Yankee Stadium..saw games in both during the 2000 WS...the atmosphere will never be matched!
2000 World Series MVP
Won the All Star MVP that year too
This immediately destroyed any momentum the Mets felt they had after winning Game 3.
Typical Jeter…..sets the tone for his team and destroyed any momentum the Mets had going into this game. He was a clutch, dynamic MLB player.
A first pitch homer from Jeter, how rare. And in the WS, amazing!
joseph rivera AMAZING
It seems like Jeter hit a lot more home runs then he actually did because he tended to hit so many in crucial high pressure scenarios
I like how Jeter hit the first pitch of Game 4 off Bobby Jones. A few weeks prior, Bobby pitched a fantastic one-hit shutout during the 2000 NLDS against the Giants.
As a die hard life long Red Sox fan I have a ton of love for this guy. He tormented my childhood but he embodies a champion. Maybe having a guy like Tom Brady who is hated but in many ways like Jeter helps give a respect for him but Derek Jeter did everything the right way. He always stepped up when it mattered and never backed down. He never was the best player in the league but one that I think most would take over almost anyone to build a team around.
And you are someone that understands everything a player contributes and not just looking at stats saying another guy was better bc he hit more HRs. I can say good things about Red Sox players too, but I won't do that here and now ;-)
@@Mike-ju1vl without admitting it, I can guess you feel the same way about Ortiz. Maybe not so much Pedro 😂
@@NEPats1289 haha it is possible to dislike and respect someone at the same time. I mean Ortiz and Manny killed them. They were decent against Pedro. Some great series back then. They always had like the same record and scored the same runs against each other. Fun rivalry
all the met fans all went to get a beer after that homer, lol lol
@ Manchester United what was the point of saying that? Go somewhere else and spread your hate somewhere else
MANCHESTER UNITED 5th most watched sports in America the best country so L
🤣🤣🤣
Yup, and in game 5, went to go drown their sorrows even more after a wasted WS. 🍺
If “like whoa” sounds familiar to you you grew up in the greatest time of the 20th century
5-Time World Series Champion
And Yogi had 10. Think about that!
@@OroborusFMA More competition in this guy's era tho.
The Clutch Defensive Plays Derek Made are Legendary...Those Earlier Year Yankee Teams Stapled by Jeter Was a GLORIUS Time to be a Yankees Fan....Absolutely Electric!!!
I'm gonna miss this guy playing
I miss watching Jeter and Ichiro play. They were my favorite players growing up.
Just astounding how quickly Jeter could bring his hands in and still get the barrel on that ball. His hand speed is what made him so good
LEGEND
Not a fan of either team but the Subway Series needs to happen again
There are just too many rounds of playoffs for it to happen anymore. It could have happened in 1999 but the Mets lost to the Braves. It could have happened in 2006 but the Mets fell just short against the Cards and the Yankees rolled over and played dead against a vastly inferior Detroit team.
@@OroborusFMA There's just 2 rounds before the World Series...which is better than the NBA. I know Mets are laughed at, but they really aren't that far away from contention. If Edwin Diaz was 3/4 as good as last year, they'd at least be in the Wild Card race. They will be contending for the NL by the mid 2020s.
@@OroborusFMA Didn't Tigers have elite pitching in 2006?
Hopefully 2021
Even though the series only went five games, all the games were very close and so intense! Was so much fun from start to finish!
Mets were toast after that Home run
The Mets will always be the second team in New York.
The Battle of New York
He learned so much after his encounter with George Costanza.
Captain Clutch. The Joe D. of his era.
the camera flashes are insane! wish it would come back
This announcing is by far better than anything John Sterling has ever produced
Derek Jeter Hit 260 Homers!
20 in the playoffs.
i watch it on mlb all star game 2003 on nintendo gamecube when i was a kid
First pitch best you're going to get
1st ballot HOF'er.
Better than A-Rod.
Doesn't take much to be better than A-Rod. Don't compare Jeter or any real baseball player to that garbage.
Cole Burton Garbage? A-rod is way more talented than Jeter would ever dream of being.
MrXxsesshomaruxX You're right, but A-Rod didn't have the intangibles that Jeter had. Jeter was selfless, team-oriented and never wanted the spotlight. A-Rod never had those characteristics.
Timmy Sullivan EXACTLY!!!!!!
A FACE FOR RADIO I'll always take Jeter over A-Rod. There is no doubt that A-Rod is one of the most talented players to ever play, with and without PEDs. But Jeter constantly delivered in high-leverage situations and has all kinds of offensive playoff records, and that is a legacy that Rodriguez could never possibly fathom of having.
Jeter, the defeater. The HOF awaits. All the attempts by ESPN to tarnish his career - failed.
I remember that one, Bayless is a hack but that's nothing new however.
all but one voted him in
all but one
Who let the dogs out? Lolololol
eh its all good. I forgive the Yankees for beating my Mets. Nowadays Im back to supporting the Yankees after 17 years of not doing so.
+Mike C the hell kind of fan are you? Hah probably switched back to supporting the mets again by now huh?
+Mike C who u liking for football next year? Jets or Giants? Or should I ask in November
@Jonathan McCully idk I just remember Paul O'Neil saying something about this on the air how he thought it was kinda goofy or cringe hearing the song play before the World Series for whatever reason. It was a long time ago though, I don't really remember exactly what he said
When you're away and the boo's can't cancel out the cheers.
Well the Yankees and Mets both play in New York City, so the attendance was half Yankees fans half Mets fans. All the fans probably cheered both teams no matter what cuz they're both NYC's hometown teams.
@@christendo5733 well, I'm from New York, and trust me, no mets fan is rooting for the Yankees, and no Yankees fan is rooting for the Mets in any circumstance. Walk through The Bronx, and through Queens, and you'll see why that is true.
@@ipayyoutube9252 I'm from NY too and I've met several people who like both teams.
@@christendo5733 sounds like fake fans to me. I'm a giants fan as well, and when they play the jets every four years I treat that game as if they're playing the cowboys.
Captain Clutch struck again. Always seems to be successful whenever he goes after the first pitch. I wonder if that was one thing he was well known for.
I'm not so sure that people in the 1910s and 1920s ever dreamed that baseball would still be important past the year 2000 or even 2020. The first world series was a big deal in the early 1900s before planes and cars and telephones and it's just a big deal today. Insane
I got that ball
Was that Vizcaino saying Knoblauch called that shot? Looks like that's what he was saying to the team. I never caught that. Jeter is the man
Jeter= legend
00:47 epic shot right there
The camera flashes is a whole vibe we will never get back.
0:22 I'm guessing Knoblauch called that lol
The camera was on Knoblauch because he couldn't play in an NL park without the DH. He had the yips at 2nd base, so they couldn't trust him out there. That's really why they had Jeter leadoff in this game.
Magic!
Sucked all the wind out of Shea on the first pitch.
Notice how back then people were actually in their seats for first pitch
If you compare these two teams by each position and each spot in rotation, it is not hard to see why the Yankees won in five. I mean, a Mets' outfield of Agbayani/Payton/Perez against Justice/Williams/O'Neil. Anyone else see the problem here as far as the Mets were concerned?
Anthony Greico Yet if you see every single game of that world series you would see how the Yankees simply got lucky.
lou, how were they lucky in Games 2, 4 & 5?
+lou Albino clown alert
@@brianb7423 It wasn't even the most retarded thing he had posted either.
lou Albino lucky how?
I kinda miss the flashing cameras you don’t see them a lot anymore
Cleanest yankee of all time period.
How about Lou Gehrig? Probably the original Captain America for the Yankees.
The Man
On one pitch Bobby Jones gave up as many hits as he did to the Giants in Game 4 of the NLDS
YEAHH JEETS!!
Was he considered the best player in baseball after the 2000 world series? Who remembers?
That’s when I became a baseball fan and wanted to play
Dem yankee bois is da best
And that folks, is how it's done.
Numbah twoooo.....
Bobby Jones had 3 pitches
Slow
Slower
Slowest
And to this day Bobby Valentine can't stand Jeter.
That's nothing, compared to John Smoltz's hate boner for the Yankees, while he works at the announcer booth.
My 6th birthday
#2 is #1. Lol
