David Ortiz sat down with Bob Costas to reflect on his remarkable 20-year MLB career and being inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame.
The definition of clutch.
How lucky were we to see David Ortiz play here in Boston..so many memories..I happened to meet/see him around Boston..He had an aura about him..when he walked in its like MJ walking in except DO would many times take time and be with people.
how could you not love big papi!
How can you not love Big Papi!!!
Love him 🇩🇴
The King of Clutch!!
@okole puka yeah, I’m not sure how I disrespected Manny or how any of what you just said is relevant to my comment at all. That’s cool though.
🐐 of Boston/Boston Strong 💪 I loved his competitive leadership etc 🙂
Everyone loves papi
ORTIZ = Platano Power 🇩🇴💪🏽
Respect 🫡
A great red Sox player. 3 rings. Thank you big papi.
Larger than life itself, with all the hopes & dreams of a young boy, Big Papi was the modern day version of Babe Ruth.
“David Ortiz stated definitively that he never used steroids or bought them, but acknowledged that he was “careless” -David Ortiz 2009 press conference mhmm sound suspicious 🤨
👏👏
Having Ortiz and Brady at the same time was about as much spoiling a sports fan could ever have. So many wins.
Bergeron and Pierce as well.
Greatest clutch hitter of all time
@okole puka ur not just probably a Red Sox fan ur a manny Ramirez fan
Also, the man hit nearly .500 over 3 World Series’… that’s 14 games total for the Sox. 🤯
a Hall of Famer having a sit-down with another Hall of Famer
Caught with peds and goes in 1st ballot amazing isn't it? Bob sure didn't talk about that in the interview huh?
I think one of the reasons the Minnesota Twins didn't offer another contract, and let him walk after the '02 season.
Yep, Bob is a hypocrite because he likes Ortiz. Typical of Costas.
🇩🇴
Such hypocrisy having him being elected into Hall of Fame. He tested positive for steroids in 2003. Even though that was supposed to be confidential, it got out and he along with the likes of ARod, Manny Rameriz and about 100 players tested positive. Why is he in Hall? Because of personality? The Boston Strong speech? His very unfortunate and tragically being shot?
Have no problem with him getting in. But if so then the previous mentioned players along with Bonds, Clemens, Sosa, McGuire, Palmeiro etc should be in. Many of their stats are not only better but they were more multidimensional and not just a DH.
Big Pappi was a great hitter and among the most clutch hitters of all time so good for him and congrats for getting in. But get off your high horse writers and be consistent. I don’t condone any of those guys taking PED’S, and I am glad more strict guidelines are in place. But at that time baseball turned a blind eye to it. For crying out loud McGwire had them out in the open in his locker during home run chase vs Sosa. Plus remember MLB’s promotion “Chicks dig the longball”?
Ok, you have opened up the door. The floodgates should allow the rest in. Because, be honest hundreds of players took PED’S at that time. While some stats may be a little inflated, these guys probably would have been HOF players without them. Baseball just needs to chalk up this as a time of ignorance and even if Hall wants to put on players plaque that he was suspected or caught in an era when baseball had a blind eye to players using PED’S so be it.
All the flavors in the world and you chose to be salty 😂
@@enoso2447 hes not wrong though. He didnt say ortiz out he said out everyone else in and i agree. You cant place 2022 standards to 2000 standards the same way ton of dudes in the 1900s were winning 300 games and even middle of the pack guys had complete games.
Based on that logic, no pitcher outside of kershaw and verlander will get the the hall of fame from this generation. (Because they dont get the wins, the dont pitch more than 6 innings and they dont get the Ks)
@@acruzro95 the difference here is that the PED punishments weren’t imposed til 2005 and Ortiz has been clean his entire career since the Mitchell report…can’t get him for something that was deemed legal at the time 🤷🏻♂️
@@acruzro95 btw he wasn’t even on the list. I double checked.
@@enoso2447 yes he was he did a press conference said “idk what I put in my body my trainer did it”
Respect, but side thing
Barry Bonds already.
🗽 🍎
It really looks like Costas is suffering through this. He’s being a good employee, but you can tell he doesn’t want to do this.
David Ortiz did steroids.
Yes but the writers liked him and he survived a shooting.
If course he got in .
Where's Bond and Rose?
They can't use steroids as a reason to keep anyone out now.
In all likelihood why the Minnesota Twins moved on from Ortiz after the 2002 season.
@@deanladue3151 which turned out to be the stupidest move to date
So steroids don't keep some out of HOF.
The twins didn’t give him a chance
Idk how or why ? Because he had decent numbers with the twins and they decided to let him go. He had 20 home runs in his last year with the twins if I was the GM I would be keeping him.
Actually they let him walk, along with pitcher Mike Jackson. The Twins front office was suspicious of Ortiz and Jackson of using PEDs. And with Justin Morneau ready to hit the big leagues, from the Twins standpoint. It made perfect sense to let Ortiz walk.
How is he allowed in the HOF but bonds and Clemens aren’t? Because big papi was worse than bonds? Someone explain
He never did steroids. All that bs was cleared up. But nobody talks about it
@@SayerofThings David Ortiz literally tested positive for steroids. Don't spread lies without evidence.
@@SayerofThings No he wasn’t, he tested Positive for PEDs, the irony majority of the players on the Mitchell report did end up confessing or tested positive later in their career…. He probably stop using it after the report came out which was supposed to be confidential but someone leaked the player list.
Where's Costas' outrage for this cheater? What a fraud.
It's a popularity contest already.
Cheater
No disrespect to Big Papi and I want to make clear that I have nothing against him .but it comes to my mind that Bernie Williams a 5 time Championship and a Super Star in his Position discipline player and also Jorge Posada among the best catcher also 5 Championship and a drive on force with the Yankees and none of the two were selected to the Hall of Fame .there something fishing with that action against them.they were more valuable to the game than a DH hitter .
Posada and Williams were good players, but neither were ever superstars at their positions.
They were decent players on great teams. David Ortiz carried the Red Sox lineup for many years
Another Yankee fan living on Mars
Delusional Ortiz carried the redsox on his back while posada and Bernie were just additions to an already great team
