Dave Roberts will NOT let history repeat itself. He wants to forever known as part of the ONLY team to come back in a series from 0-3 games down. The 2004 Red Socks should be the last team to ever do something like that. Dave was part of that team. So he knows exactly how this series could have gone if it had gone back to LA.. very poorly.
@@craigwheeler4760 The Dodgers had Yamamoto pitching for the potential game 6. There is 0 chance the Yankees win that game anyways. Gerrit Cole was the only Yankees pitcher not crapping themselves. And the Yankees could only win a bullpen game against the worst bullpen arms the Dodgers have.
Yeah with 7 stars lol. It’s overkill if the pitchers were healthy. Dodgers have the luxury of having mediocre pitching with all the star power they have🤮🤮🤮🤮
that sounds like all their guys, including fellow MVPs Mookie and Freddie Mookie taking off at full sprint on what looks like an easy out in the 5th is why he beat both guys to the plate when they flubbed it. Mookie RBIs and Sac Flies, so clutch And we don't even have to mention Freddie
@@JustAwesomeeare you kidding me? No franchise has bought more championships in team sports SINCE the start of free agency then the Yankees. Happy to fix you.
Technically, that is not true; former Red Sox Mookie Betts set up Freddie and Teo to erase the 5-0 deficit, and Dave Roberts, who managed the pen, was part of the 04 Red Sox team that reverse swept the Yankees.
There's no such thing as a soul crushing loss in the World Series precisely because you've made it that far. Oh but wait, that's something only Yankee fans would understand. My bad.
The haters will discredit Ohtani's lack of contributions in the World Series (despite him not being 100%) when it was his leadership and 50/50 regular season performance that even got them to the postseason. He carried the team and took the role of hitting lead off when Mookie went down, then Freddie had absences from his son to the ankle injury. This whole team has been banged up all season, but it's their resilience, how they carried each other no matter the circumstances or hurdles that came their way and still found ways to win. That's the true definition of TEAM effort. No egos, just one common goal... to win a World Series Championship. Job finished! 🏆💙💪🏽
Dodgers up 3 games to 1 and down by 5 runs in game 5?, they could have mailed it in for a return to Dodger Stadium…instead they went beast mode with that killer mentality and took the hearts out of New York instead. So good! 🎉
He got on base and somehow scored a run with that catcher's interference.. He also walked and scored in the 1st inning of another game while injured. It's not like he was an instant out either. He was taking pitchers 6-8 pitches deep into counts regularly before getting out, even with the injury. That's the value of 1/3 of Shohei Ohtani.
You're totally wrong! It's the opposite in reality! It's Ohtani carried Dodgers throughout the season & postseason with his outrageous performances when all other original roasters went IL at least once & were gone for months like Betts, Muncy & all starters. Those came later or stayed a little healthier were either in slump for months or performed worst in the whole MLB hitter list. Without Ohtani, Dodgers had fallen from leader of the Division in June to August while Betts got broken hands, Freeman was in IL for child's sickness & his broken finger, & Teo was in slump for different periods. Ohtani was the only reliable hitter in lineup even when he was injured by pickup throw from May16 for over a month. Ohtani still hit, got more RBI, & scored more runs than others even when he could only perform half of what he could in other months during his leg injury fr mid-May to early June. Especially in September, after most original roasters eventually returned, Ohtani performed max & carried Dodgers through series against DB, Padres, & Rookies. Ohtani made crazy HR, hits, & RBI in those series. He literally led him to win 1st in seasonal Division while Dodgers was almost fallen out of playoff position as Dodgers actually lost more won in August. Padres and DB were strongly tracing after Dodgers. Dodgers was only in a few games lead & could fall off playoffs without Ohtani's incredible performances to give them the wins in the 4 series. There would never be any NLDS. And Ohtani's 1st 3-run HR in 1st game of NLDS also changed Dodgers's destiny from losing the Division Series again to winning WS. Without that HR, Dodgers would've lost in G1 in NLDS, combined with losses in 2nd & 3rd, Dodgers would've lost in NLDS & certainly No 4th&5th games' wins. There wouldn't be any NLCS & WS & eventually there wouldn't be winning of another WS championship 🏆.
@@berryleung7288also to add ohtani had like a war of about 9 or so, if you remove him the dodgers are tied between mets, dbacks and braves trying to get into the last playoff wildcard spots.
Soto was giving up 2 bases compared to Mookie 1 base for the same balls that were hit in right field all series long! The broadcast booth put that out there. Soto is so animated with ego he won't be a good fit! Dodgers need to keep Teoscar much better player and character!! Go Dodgers
Dodgers have a high payroll? Sure. So do the Yankees. The difference is in the characters they signed.

yea i think youre right. when i see Yankees on TV i just didn't feel the chemistry. they were all there for themselves not the team. Everyone seems to have a big ego, just like the SD Padres.
The guys on the Dodgers also made it a deliberate point to bond as a team to help prove the haters wrong. I'm convinced that's why this team had the resilience we don't normally see from them.
@@gilded_ladyyou could tell which team had been thru the fire and the team that hadn't, thats for sure. Dodgers had a rep as chokers despite this Yankee team having just as big a payroll and not winning anything, which amazes they didn't get called out for.
If Ohtani suddenly put on a Yankees uniform and batted a 1000 with a HR each time during game 5, he still would have done a fantastic job helping the Dodgers win the World Series. That's how much he helped the Dodgers win. Just because he did next to nothing in 4 WS games doesn't discount the 162 plus post season games it took them to get there. Some baseball fans have no sense of perspective. There are people in the dodgers dugout that watched the entire 2024 season go by without playing and even they got a ring. Give Ohtani a break. Dude is Rehabbing TJ AND was fresh off a shoulder injury. He toughed it out. Some MLB players miss half the season for a hangnail. Go figure.
First of all, the reason the Yankees lost was because they relied too much on certain players and had a thin roster. The Dodgers had a deeper roster. Secondly, many Yankees players had an "I'll decide" or "I, I, I" attitude. All of the Dodgers players were committed to team play, saying "Let's just get on base and keep the ball going." I think this difference in awareness of team play was also the cause of the Yankees' three consecutive errors. This shows that a team cannot win just by using money to attract good players.
Actually the yankees were very patient at the plate and drew a lot of walks. To me the biggest factor has to be the difference in quality of pitching. The dodgers starting rotation and bullpen was better than the yankees. We all know that pitching is what wins games in October, Freddie Freeman himself said it, and it's been that way since forever.
Hernandez baited Judge into thinking he could be the hero and get a double play. That's why his eyes were off the ball. Then Hernandez ran an arc towards Volpe to make the throw to 3rd very hard vs. just taking the guaranteed out at 1st.
Lack of fundamental baseball, lack of hustle. Yankees get what they deserve. You don't respect the game and hustle and play fundamental baseball this is what you deserve. 6 outs for one inning in the big leagues is ridiculous, let alone in a world series.
As much as the Dodgers were favoured to win the series, the yankees completely shot themselves in the foot with bad fielding and questionable managerial decisions, particularly for game 1 and the clincher. 6 outs in an inning in the big leagues is almost unheard of!
I think Dave Roberts won this series the way he managed, the Dodgers pitcher's and he possibly learned how to do that watching Bruce Bochy over the years. And that was a key.
No room for being a fan of a East Coast team and now you on the Dodgers jock strap lol. Stay there with the loser Yankees on the American East and take the loss.
It’s a 50/50 even chance for everyone. The problem is when we lose 1% efficiency, the other side increases by 1%. It’s the doubling effects. Athletics work all year round to improve 1% performance.
Judge and ohtani were the stars expected to shine. The difference really was ohtani had a whole team that was there when he wasn’t and judge had some players in different games that showed up and not at the same time.
@@gregdahlen4375 / It was eventually scored a hit / and according to Baseballs Rules Academy: Rule 9.122 The Official Scorer shall not charge an error if the pitcher fails to cover first base on a play, thereby allowing a batter-runner to reach first base safely. If the baseball is fielded properly and the Pitcher and Fielder misjudge or miscommunicate and fail to cover first base, the official scorer shall not charge an error.
Big Papi had a better series hitting .688 with a 1.948 OPS. Also Billy Hatcher had the most insane statline in modern baseball in a world series. Hitting 750 with a 2.050 OPS in the 1990 world series. No disrespect to Freddie Freeman but Sandy Koufax had a more valuable world series performance than him and every other player, pitching 24 innings and giving up just 1 run in three starts in the 1965 world series with a 0.75 WHIP. Sandy Koufax is still the GOAT of October.
"Let's all pretend this was an amazing achievement by the Dodgers! Yes, they had an enormous payroll and by FAR the best roster, but...let's pretend that they won because of their will and their never-say-die attitude." Realistic take that is bad for sports talk radio and bad for baseball: Major league baseball is kind of stupid. The richest team won. That's the typical result. Even the second-highest by a mile payroll team would have had to have a lot of breaks to pull it off. Same with Padres. If the rich team screws up, someone else might win.
The Yankees really messed up X 3 but credit for the Dodgers for getting hits to start the inning and putting the ball in play to put the pressure on the defense to execute, and once the door was open, 2 more hits. It only happens if the Dodgers are putting the ball in play, against a pitcher who had gone 4 no hit innings. Terrific determination and professional hitting and running.
I think the Judge and Volpe plays are blunders that can happen to anyone... sort of forgivable. Cole not covering first and Rizzo not trying to hustle on the play is absolutely unforgivable especially considering that it SHOULD'VE bailed Judge and Volpe out for their previous errors. Just brutal!!
You can have a stacked lineup and not even make a postseason. e.g. 2007 Tigers lineup. I'd rather have a solid core of starting pitchers and relievers than a jacked lineup any day of the week if I'm going to contend in October.
Aaron Judge is the biggest choker in sports history. He is worse than Kershaw,Harden, and A-Rod as a choker. I hope Yankees trade him in the off-season.I can't imagine Yankees winning world series as long as they have Judge.
They need to win with 2 years to avoid tying longest title drought in Yankees history of 18 years. Fail to win one by 2037, longer curse than the Bartman Curse thanks to those interfering fans in game 4 that stated the Capobianco curse.
Volpe's play wasn't exactly routine. I don't think he practices that throw to 3rd ever. But it required the least amount of effort vs throwing across his body to 1st or 2nd
Judge's career changed on that dropped ball. He can hit 58 homers again next year, and it won't matter. He will NEVER be the same. By the way, Cole should have covered 1st...PERIOD, NO EXCUSES. Doesn't matter because he WIIL NOT be a Yankee next year.
Ohtani instills confidence in these Dodgers eventhough he was pretty quiet in the playoffs. Explain to me why the Dodgers in the playoffs for 12 straight years but never won a championship(ignore covid 2020) until Ohtani came. Explain to me why the Yankees collapsed due to an error from Aaron Judge in the 5th inning. Ohtani brings confidence to his teammates. Judge is a choker. Both Judge and Ohtani were pretty quiet in post season, but only ohtani gave his teammates confidence to win it all.
With all do resp, I'm a dieheart Dodger fan, but it's not Judge or Torres fault, if Cole covers 1st base 0 runs score. It's all on Gerrit Cole, he got lazy and took it for granted that it was an easy play for Rizzo, but it's the most practiced play for pitchers, there is no excuse for that mental error. My Dodgers won this series for Fernando Valenzuela and the parade will take place on his birthday, Go Dodgers.
For all the people complaining about the Dodgers payroll and saying they brought the World Series, let me remind you that there are a core of Dodgers players (8, 9 if you want to count injured Kershaw) who were key members of the 2020 Champs. That core did not include Freeman, Teoscar, Othani or Edman. When you have a core of players and a manager used to being in a playoff atmosphere, it makes a difference. Like Colin said, experience matters. Go blue 💙💙💙
Definitely bought not earned you went and got mookie after he beat yall in 2018 and then get freddie in 2022 after he beat yall and let seager walk who is your best franchise shortstop and 2020 world series mvp because you didn’t wanna pay him but yall will pay ohtani because he’ll defer his salary
@Gman1298 And what does any of this have to do with "buying" a World Series? Any competitive sports franchise is going to do everything in their power to bring in championship level players. That includes making trades and spending money on free agents. At the end of the day, the players have to produce on the field. Dodgers are just doing what they need to do to win, and it's working. All that matters is getting that trophy.
Know who doesn’t make those errors? Bernie Williams, Derek Jeter, and Andy Pettite in the 90s. Yes, they were high-paid and occasionally error-prone. But when the whole thing was on the line they were lockdown!
I Am SO MAD....Yankees Should Have Never Put Themselves In That Position But I Do Know 1 Thing: THEY ALL BETTER COME BACK NEXT SEASON VERY HUNGRY TO WIN IT ALL!!
Maybe Cashman should start looking for baseball players instead of prima donna bats. You know the other stuff; fielding, running, throwing, basic defensive and offensive tactics, and most of all hustle and desire. The team is flawed, always has been, money only covers so much and when you come up against another big spender your advantage is gone.
When you have a MVP type player ( Aaron Judge ) help you make the playoffs and then lose pretty much without him ( played terribly ) shows you how valuable he really is. Yes he didn’t perform, however the World Series pressure from the expectation to perform is something that he’ll learn from and be better for the future .
Gerrit Cole was walking into the dugout on that grounder to first. You can watch him stop point and take a step perpendicular to the base. He thought the inning was over without him having to do anything more.
Isn’t it peculiar when Freddie rolled his ankle and couldn’t buy a hit throughout the NLCS, guess what we heard? Absolute silence. No cries of "Oh, Freddie is a complete flop for not showing up!" Nope, instead he was serenaded with soothing whispers of empathy and understanding. Yet here comes Ohtani, the unsung hero of game 1 of the World Series, who snagged a clutch double in the 8th inning, setting the stage for Freddie’s memorable walk-off that basically won the Dodgers the WS. And then, oh no-a shoulder dislocation in game 2, leaving Ohtani one-handed. Suddenly, a guy playing with what amounts to a mechanical arm is supposed to knock it out of the park? Well, color me amazed. Apparently, "shoulder dislocation" actually means "you must perform superhuman feats without complaint" in whatever parallel universe these causals reside. So now, despite heroically saving the Dodgers from getting swept by the Padres with his clutch 3-run homer, having an outstanding NLCS performance with a 1.184 OPS, .364 average, .818 with RISP, leading with 9 runs, reaching the bases 17 times, and massively contributing to game 1 of the WS with his series-changing clutch double, Ohtani is now put on trial by the armchair critics, branded as a "postseason choker". Remarkable! Who knew injuries qualify as failures when you’re not Freddie? Our dear Freddie, however, gets a lovely exemption from expectations when injured but Ohtani? Oh, spare us the details about swinging with one arm, he just needs to put on a show, right? Their logic is baffling.
Lets be Honest...If Yanks 1st Baseman Rushes The Soft Grounder He Would Have Been MUCH Closer to The Bag and Would Have EASILY Beaten Runner to 1st Base...Instead He WAITED on The Grounder to Throw to Pitcher Who Was Not There...This Was The 1st Basemans PLAY to Make on His Own in My Humble Opinion
My takes yall will disagree with This game was handed to us. 5 of those runs could been prevented 3 times: 1- Aaron Judge Error 2 - Jazz C error 3 - Hard take here Cole was suppose to get to 1 but Rizzo should take part of the responsibility lolligaging to 1 Besides that the crucial catcher interference. Another take: I thought cole was amazing, yall gotta lay off him about the first base thing. This thing was preventable before that. This got to be the worse inning in world series history. I don't remember anything as bad as that fifth inning. Embarrassing. Freddie Freeman was unreal. Whenever we needed him he did it. He is that guy. From game 1 to game 5. He was him.
To be fair to both Ohtani and Judge, it was their first World Series ever. Soto, Freeman, Betts had been there before. Plus ohtani got injured and judge did hit a hr.
For all the Yankees fans out there who don’t follow the Dodgers closely, prior to this post season, the Dodgers were known for having no fun, playing tight, and choking. The Yanks are too talented to not get back. Fix your fundamentals and trust that eventually your reputation will be redeemed.

Mental mistakes by the Yanks! Dodgers were on their game! Congrats Dodgers. I LOVE LA!
Lack of fundamental baseball, lack of hustle. Yankees get what they deserve. You don't respect the game and hustle and play fundamental baseball this is what you deserve.
6 outs for one inning in the big leagues is ridiculous, let alone in a world series.
Othani was injured. Both his arms
Next year he pitches 😊
What went wrong for the Yankees? THE DODGERS
As much as the Dodgers were favoured to win the series, the yankees completely shot themselves in the foot with bad fielding and questionable managerial decisions, particularly for game 1 and the clincher. 6 outs in an inning in the big leagues is almost unheard of!
You know a guy has gone fully SoCal local when he’s doing El Segundo drops.
Its like they had Angels in the outfield. That Aaron drop was crazy cuz he just had a great running catch earlier that day.
judge shouldn't even be in center field that needs to change next year put him back in right field
I think Dave Roberts won this series the way he managed, the Dodgers pitcher's and he possibly learned how to do that watching Bruce Bochy over the years. And that was a key.
Dodgers are a great all around team. With depth.
As a Red Sox & Dodgers fan , it's Mooookie not mukie.
No room for being a fan of a East Coast team and now you on the Dodgers jock strap lol. Stay there with the loser Yankees on the American East and take the loss.
@@taguirre7052 dodgers had to get mookie from Boston after he beat yall in 2018 and got his own ring😂 you should be grateful
@@taguirre7052 A true Red Sox fan would NEVER root for the Yankees...
Walker had 1 day rest
I can't believe the talking heads all say only on 2 days
Is confidence another word for shoulder injury that ive never heard before?
Remember 50% of Ohtani is still better than 100% of most guys.
It’s a 50/50 even chance for everyone. The problem is when we lose 1% efficiency, the other side increases by 1%. It’s the doubling effects. Athletics work all year round to improve 1% performance.
Super fun take calling. Love the Freddy reference. Started laughing out loud. Good take. Thanks for sharing this morning.
Judge and ohtani were the stars expected to shine. The difference really was ohtani had a whole team that was there when he wasn’t and judge had some players in different games that showed up and not at the same time.
First of all:
Not covering first base and failing to hustle is NOT AN ERROR
If that Garrett Cole play was scored an error, it was scored incorrectly
if not an error what was it?
@@gregdahlen4375 / It was eventually scored a hit / and according to Baseballs Rules Academy: Rule 9.122
The Official Scorer shall not charge an error if the pitcher fails to cover first base on a play, thereby allowing a batter-runner to reach first base safely. If the baseball is fielded properly and the Pitcher and Fielder misjudge or miscommunicate and fail to cover first base, the official scorer shall not charge an error.
The title should be what went right for the Yankees. They were not a W.S. team and should be happy that Houston and Baltimore got knocked out.
Freddie Freeman greatest of all time World Series performance
Big Papi had a better series hitting .688 with a 1.948 OPS.
Also Billy Hatcher had the most insane statline in modern baseball in a world series. Hitting 750 with a 2.050 OPS in the 1990 world series.
No disrespect to Freddie Freeman but Sandy Koufax had a more valuable world series performance than him and every other player, pitching 24 innings and giving up just 1 run in three starts in the 1965 world series with a 0.75 WHIP.
Sandy Koufax is still the GOAT of October.
All runs in the 5th innings with 2 out crazy’s divine intervention I say.
The Best take on the World Series I have seen, as of yet, on youtube.
"Let's all pretend this was an amazing achievement by the Dodgers! Yes, they had an enormous payroll and by FAR the best roster, but...let's pretend that they won because of their will and their never-say-die attitude."
Realistic take that is bad for sports talk radio and bad for baseball: Major league baseball is kind of stupid. The richest team won. That's the typical result. Even the second-highest by a mile payroll team would have had to have a lot of breaks to pull it off. Same with Padres. If the rich team screws up, someone else might win.
BINGO!!! Cole too lazy to run to 1st!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Yankees really messed up X 3 but credit for the Dodgers for getting hits to start the inning and putting the ball in play to put the pressure on the defense to execute, and once the door was open, 2 more hits. It only happens if the Dodgers are putting the ball in play, against a pitcher who had gone 4 no hit innings. Terrific determination and professional hitting and running.
I think the Judge and Volpe plays are blunders that can happen to anyone... sort of forgivable. Cole not covering first and Rizzo not trying to hustle on the play is absolutely unforgivable especially considering that it SHOULD'VE bailed Judge and Volpe out for their previous errors. Just brutal!!
The Volpe play was not routine but I see your point
Who's on first? Yankees playing thier Abbot and Costello defense.
Definitely not Cole LOL
What's on second? I don't know, THIRD BASE!
Good one 🤣🤪
I can tell you what went wrong with the Yankees, they got to comfortable with that one win and Aaron's little ole hit.
Total team victory by the Doyers. Exceptional coaching by Dave Roberts. Well played sirs! 🫡
The Dodgers were clearly the better team and played like it.
The fact is the Yankees need new Management !
1:44 - who is Muky Betts?
😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmaoo
Freeman hit a single, and then Teo knocked him in. How was Freeman's run unearned?
I don’t get why they don’t give the Yankees a participation trophy.
Dodgers and Yankees have won the same amount of world series since they move to Los Angeles Yankees only won more in black and white TV
Nightmare on 161st st line was crazy 🤯🤯😂
Why is everybody getting on cole???? Rizzo literally couldve ran to 1st🤦🏻♂️
I think Rizzo was too far away from 1st once the ball spun away from the bag. Mookie probably would've beat him to the bag...
He looks incapable of moving fast
@@JoseRamirez-es8vx right, a hefty guy with little movement
Daaaaaaa Yankees Choke
Fundamental baseball…..any ball hit to the left of a pitcher, pitcher runs to first.
Whenever the Yankees win a post season series, it's only against the AL Central.
The Yankees are World Series champions….of the AL Central. 😂
Only 2 explanations describe NY, (1) They really are very well coached and (2) they just didn’t want it bad enough. Pick one or both case closed
Love the Dodgers but the line up is too stacked. Preferred the days of bellinger, pederson, Taylor, puig and seager
You can have a stacked lineup and not even make a postseason. e.g. 2007 Tigers lineup.
I'd rather have a solid core of starting pitchers and relievers than a jacked lineup any day of the week if I'm going to contend in October.
Aaron Judge is the biggest choker in sports history. He is worse than Kershaw,Harden, and A-Rod as a choker. I hope Yankees trade him in the off-season.I can't imagine Yankees winning world series as long as they have Judge.
Worse than Harden? Let’s slow down lol it’s debatable though.
They need to win with 2 years to avoid tying longest title drought in Yankees history of 18 years. Fail to win one by 2037, longer curse than the Bartman Curse thanks to those interfering fans in game 4 that stated the Capobianco curse.
MLB got Ohtani his World Series
Volpe's play wasn't exactly routine. I don't think he practices that throw to 3rd ever. But it required the least amount of effort vs throwing across his body to 1st or 2nd
Judge's career changed on that dropped ball.
He can hit 58 homers again next year, and it won't matter.
He will NEVER be the same.
By the way, Cole should have covered 1st...PERIOD, NO EXCUSES.
Doesn't matter because he WIIL NOT be a Yankee next year.
6:40 chip on the shoulder, shohei's shoulder 😂😂
Greatest Dodgers baseball team ever assembled!
Ever bought!
@@briceticker6721pretty every sports team in every sport gives contracts out to players soooo……they’re all “bought” bozo

@@jrcrit8843 🤡🤡AWKCHUALLY🤓🤓☝️☝️ thanks captain obvious
@ thanks captain obvious my point still stands
Ohtani instills confidence in these Dodgers eventhough he was pretty quiet in the playoffs. Explain to me why the Dodgers in the playoffs for 12 straight years but never won a championship(ignore covid 2020) until Ohtani came. Explain to me why the Yankees collapsed due to an error from Aaron Judge in the 5th inning. Ohtani brings confidence to his teammates. Judge is a choker. Both Judge and Ohtani were pretty quiet in post season, but only ohtani gave his teammates confidence to win it all.
2020 counted and we were literally cheated out by the astros in 2016. We actually have three but whatever, i’ll take two.😡
With all do resp, I'm a dieheart Dodger fan, but it's not Judge or Torres fault, if Cole covers 1st base 0 runs score. It's all on Gerrit Cole, he got lazy and took it for granted that it was an easy play for Rizzo, but it's the most practiced play for pitchers, there is no excuse for that mental error. My Dodgers won this series for Fernando Valenzuela and the parade will take place on his birthday, Go Dodgers.
Yankees don't need another WS they already have 27.
For all the people complaining about the Dodgers payroll and saying they brought the World Series, let me remind you that there are a core of Dodgers players (8, 9 if you want to count injured Kershaw) who were key members of the 2020 Champs. That core did not include Freeman, Teoscar, Othani or Edman. When you have a core of players and a manager used to being in a playoff atmosphere, it makes a difference. Like Colin said, experience matters. Go blue 💙💙💙
I would also add that even if they did "buy" it, it doesn't matter. Every team does it. That's the game.
Definitely bought not earned you went and got mookie after he beat yall in 2018 and then get freddie in 2022 after he beat yall and let seager walk who is your best franchise shortstop and 2020 world series mvp because you didn’t wanna pay him but yall will pay ohtani because he’ll defer his salary
@Gman1298 And what does any of this have to do with "buying" a World Series? Any competitive sports franchise is going to do everything in their power to bring in championship level players. That includes making trades and spending money on free agents. At the end of the day, the players have to produce on the field. Dodgers are just doing what they need to do to win, and it's working. All that matters is getting that trophy.
@@ansonjackson6254 you could spend a ton of money and not win a series, it's how you spend the money
Know who doesn’t make those errors? Bernie Williams, Derek Jeter, and Andy Pettite in the 90s. Yes, they were high-paid and occasionally error-prone. But when the whole thing was on the line they were lockdown!
No one cares about your excuses on living the past, players, and wins. Ya got destroyed and bow down to the LA Dodgers.
The guy just injured himself!
He carried that team and after game 2 injury the team carried him back 🎉 Dodgers♥
I Am SO MAD....Yankees Should Have Never Put Themselves In That Position But I Do Know 1 Thing: THEY ALL BETTER COME BACK NEXT SEASON VERY HUNGRY TO WIN IT ALL!!
Bro LA wanted to win at home and New York blew it lol
No La Dodgers wanted to destroy the Evil empire " who suck" and their dirty fans in NYC.
Maybe Cashman should start looking for baseball players instead of prima donna bats. You know the other stuff; fielding, running, throwing, basic defensive and offensive tactics, and most of all hustle and desire. The team is flawed, always has been, money only covers so much and when you come up against another big spender your advantage is gone.
It was my son's ghost that caused all those errors. He's a big-time dodger fan RIP son. Love you 🥰
Maybe my dad’s ghost assisted your son’s ghost. My dad was a huge Dodger fan, RIP Dad
As a father I can’t imagine… thank your son. He absolutely played a part
Yankees trying too hard to win. “ move slow but fast.” John Wooden.
"Be quick, but don't hurry" is what Mr. Wooden said.
When you have a MVP type player ( Aaron Judge ) help you make the playoffs and then lose pretty much without him ( played terribly ) shows you how valuable he really is. Yes he didn’t perform, however the World Series pressure from the expectation to perform is something that he’ll learn from and be better for the future .
Yankees had the highest payroll btw in 2024
The things that happen in this game shows why Sports and Vegas (gambling)should not be connected.
Yep too many mistakes led the Dodgers back in the game that proved to be costly for the Yankees.
cole was great but he has to be at 1st base and get the out you jut have too
Gerrit Cole was walking into the dugout on that grounder to first. You can watch him stop point and take a step perpendicular to the base. He thought the inning was over without him having to do anything more.
Success has a thousand fathers, but failure is an orphan!
Isn’t it peculiar when Freddie rolled his ankle and couldn’t buy a hit throughout the NLCS, guess what we heard? Absolute silence. No cries of "Oh, Freddie is a complete flop for not showing up!" Nope, instead he was serenaded with soothing whispers of empathy and understanding.
Yet here comes Ohtani, the unsung hero of game 1 of the World Series, who snagged a clutch double in the 8th inning, setting the stage for Freddie’s memorable walk-off that basically won the Dodgers the WS. And then, oh no-a shoulder dislocation in game 2, leaving Ohtani one-handed. Suddenly, a guy playing with what amounts to a mechanical arm is supposed to knock it out of the park? Well, color me amazed. Apparently, "shoulder dislocation" actually means "you must perform superhuman feats without complaint" in whatever parallel universe these causals reside.
So now, despite heroically saving the Dodgers from getting swept by the Padres with his clutch 3-run homer, having an outstanding NLCS performance with a 1.184 OPS, .364 average, .818 with RISP, leading with 9 runs, reaching the bases 17 times, and massively contributing to game 1 of the WS with his series-changing clutch double, Ohtani is now put on trial by the armchair critics, branded as a "postseason choker".
Remarkable! Who knew injuries qualify as failures when you’re not Freddie? Our dear Freddie, however, gets a lovely exemption from expectations when injured but Ohtani? Oh, spare us the details about swinging with one arm, he just needs to put on a show, right? Their logic is baffling.
Dodgers are a better team all-around team than the Yankees.
Just all around embarrasing for the Yankees, saying this as a fan.
I’m surprised he made it a couple minutes into this video without bringing up nfl comparisons haha
Cole not covering first still baffles me.
Cowherd is the best
Lets be Honest...If Yanks 1st Baseman Rushes The Soft Grounder He Would Have Been MUCH Closer to The Bag and Would Have EASILY Beaten Runner to 1st Base...Instead He WAITED on The Grounder to Throw to Pitcher Who Was Not There...This Was The 1st Basemans PLAY to Make on His Own in My Humble Opinion
Booo hoo bro ya NY fans and Yankees team lost. Your souls and your overrated team was sucked away by LA Dodgers.
My takes yall will disagree with
This game was handed to us. 5 of those runs could been prevented 3 times:
1- Aaron Judge Error
2 - Jazz C error
3 - Hard take here Cole was suppose to get to 1 but Rizzo should take part of the responsibility lolligaging to 1
Besides that the crucial catcher interference.
Another take:
I thought cole was amazing, yall gotta lay off him about the first base thing. This thing was preventable before that.
This got to be the worse inning in world series history. I don't remember anything as bad as that fifth inning. Embarrassing.
Freddie Freeman was unreal. Whenever we needed him he did it. He is that guy. From game 1 to game 5. He was him.
Just say, well reported Colin , nice relaxed aware reporting , bravo
To be fair to both Ohtani and Judge, it was their first World Series ever. Soto, Freeman, Betts had been there before. Plus ohtani got injured and judge did hit a hr.
I love your show my friend ❤❤❤❤
For all the Yankees fans out there who don’t follow the Dodgers closely, prior to this post season, the Dodgers were known for having no fun, playing tight, and choking. The Yanks are too talented to not get back. Fix your fundamentals and trust that eventually your reputation will be redeemed.
As a Dodgers fan, I was looting for the Yankees to win the fifth game to bring the game back to LA so we can celebrate here…
