Jomboy's face interposed onto the video will never get old. I think this might be one of your best yet!
Disagree. There was one where he superimposed himself onto a baseball if I remember correctly. I can't recall which video though.
Yeah, agreed...the overlay of the ump's mask was a nice touch. Well done editor.
@@nickszune7196 oh yeah that was really good too
@@Trapper50cal he edits all his videos
That and the Lord Jesus shout out, nothing better imo.
"Thank you Jesus. Appreciate it" had me rolling
commented on the wrong video
It’s crazy how Verlander is still such a dominant pitcher at his age
His name is Captain Funbags. There’s some serious power derived from that motorboat
He is 4 strikeouts from passing Greg Maddux’s in all time strikeouts.
Lol its not crazy at all. He's gotta keep getting paid, Kate Upton has expensive taste.
Except when he was with the Mets
@@mattlox3981Short lived
Contreras is playing like an MVP candidate so far this season
We loved him in Atlanta. I was sad to see him go. Glad he's doing well in Milwaukee
I have his auto I got for $7 in the off season and I thought it Wilson when I bought it
I wasn’t paying attention
I grabbed it on the way out of a card show
Then I was getting in the car and looking at My stuff & realized who it was and was like WTH I need to pay attention
Then I was like o well , maybe he’ll do something
I couldn’t get it for $7 now 😁
Too bad his brother is… you know
@@soulknife20lookin like you shoulda kept him instead of giving up assets for Murphy.
Hes so good. Coming from a Houston fan that had his heart drop after that hit.
This sort of breakdown of minutiae, helping me understand subtleties that I'm not sophisticated enough to spot on my own, is what I love about your work.
This is the absolute definition of an AB in MLB The Show 24
Bro on ranked mfs be making contact on everything in the zone or out foul
Bro, I came in here to say the exact same thing!
not enough high fastballs out of the zone or changeups in the dirt
Your pitch overlays are the best, really shows how a pitcher attacks a batter and gets them thinking about the pitch
It’s funny, I think a lot of people are acting like JV’s gonna retire after this season or the next, but man still has a 96mph fastball and confident command of his pitches; he could be around a bit longer than some think. Not saying he’s gonna reach 300 wins, but he ain’t sputtering out by any means. Most other batters would have been cooked in that at-bat.
FYI....96 mph is still only 2 mph faster than Luis Gil's changeup.
@@robfreeman5783 luis gil throws a fast as shit changeup, whats your point
@@robfreeman5783it’s not about the speed, it’s the combination of pitches with the fastball
He's said that he wants to pitch until he's 45, like nolan ryan
@@edwardjones2129 if he takes care of himself he definitely could
Contreras might be having one of the best catcher seasons ever. Hitting well over .300, already at 7 HR’s, and OPS over .900.
It’s early
(So far) Hasn't missed a game, pace of well over 600 ABs
salvy
Cal Raleigh is up there too
@@brittonshupebro cal is batting like .220 Adley is HIM
feels like he could've gotten him to chase easily at the end after the barrage of fastballs instead of staying stuck on that same pitch until the death
Yeah, he definitely seemed like he was ready to swing at everything. I even might have just gone with a changeup instead of the 5th fastball, since he clearly missed his spot with the 4th one. He missed it even more with the 5th one, and paid for it.
@@LucianDevine Massively armchair coaching here but surely throwing 5 fastballs when he's getting contact every time is like.... a bad idea right? Feels like he's just asking for him to finally get good contact. Like you say, you'd think a curve or changeup to keep him guessing would be the move instead of the 3rd, 4th or 5th fastball
@@Wronkey360 Usually they try to speed a hitter up then get em with the off speed, or do the opposite. So yeah I assume you generally don't want to just spam 96 mph every pitch.
These kinds of duals are so fun. I can't even imagine the mind games involved and what would be going through each man's head, especially when it's a high pressure game and situation.
I like this edit for the overlays, not showing all of the background for the second pitch and confusing the background. Great job Jimmy!
These are sick I love these pitch overlays and pitch choices and breakdowns. Keep em comin jomboy 👍
Thanks Jomboy, for putting this at bat up in its entire sequence. A lot of highlights were just showing the home run pitch. It was the best battle in mlb so far this season between hall of fame pitcher and potential hal of fame player.
As a biased brewers fan Contreras is looking like an MVP candidate so far this year. Every single time he steps to the plate I’m happy. Not to mention his constant A+ performances behind the dish.
I think that a change up would’ve been the best option for the second 3-2 pitch because it looks so much like the fastball and he was clearly wanting the fastball.
My gut would have been changeup after the 4th fastball in a row, and first one to miss his spot. He missed his spot even more on the 5th fastball and paid for it.
Especially after the 2nd or 3rd 96mph. Thought he'd throw a change up high and inside
I think I'd feel better if I tried the off speed, rather than just keep spamming FBs. If he still had nearly 100mph I'd understand trying to blow by him, but he was making contact, just seems silly.
More breakdowns like this! It keeps the excitement of the season alive and allows people like me who mainly just watch my team (the Yankees) experience different moments throughout the season that I normally wouldn’t really get to see.
You'd think after spamming so many fastballs and seeing Contreras getting contact every time, you might toss an off speed or curve away. But oh well.
That's what he was gonna do next lol
Man I love Jomboy’s storytelling through stuff like this. The breakdowns of weird stuff and field mayhem are always fun, but these battles are what make the game of baseball so great.
He is 4 strikeouts from passing Greg Maddux’s in all time strikeouts. I knew Verlander is an all time great but when you see he is nearly about to pass arguably the best pitcher of all time in a stat just makes it so much more insane
I mean, of course Verlander is a great pitcher... But I think it's important to bear the following in mind: In 1998, Maddux struck out 204 batters in a season in which the NL averaged 1091 strikeouts per team. In 2019, Verlander struck out 300 batters in a season in which the AL averaged 1428 strikeouts per team. Strikeouts are on the order of 50% higher, so if you compare peak seasons, it makes sense that Verlander's 300 is about 50% higher than Maddux's 204. However, for career numbers, and relaxing it a bit to a factor of 25% higher just to be safe, Verlander would need 4,200 strikeouts to even get close to matching Maddux's proportional success.
Maddux was that good, and that deserves to be remembered as Verlander takes the record.
He’s a compilah!
@@don_5283 even when Verlander passes Maddux, Maddux will still be better, all I’m saying is that Verlander is getting up there in counting stats with all time greats. Scherzer is right behind him also
Well, Maddux wasn’t a k pitcher
@@CSDonohue11 3371 is still a ton
"Honk the horn! You like my home run? Thank you, Jesus."
😄😅
Almost 2 million subs Jomboy! You've earned it! Thanks for years of entertainment!!
Best hitting catcher in the game
That would be Salvy Perez. Hes batting .341 and his OPS is close to hitting 1.000. Wilson is a stud but Salvy is actually improving with age.
Sean Murphy has been out since the beginning of the year, or he would be up there.
Salvy and Realmuto when he's on
@@andrewboyce7268 William not wilson.
nahhh salvy
Jomboy, never change these videos please, never a miss
Bruh when the umps face turned to your face outta nowhere like that I fuckin cried 😂😂
06 JV was something to behold as a tigers fan......boy do I miss him in Detroit
I can't freakin believe that I haven't subscribed until now. 1000 pardons, gentlemen.
Jose Ramirez. 12 pitch at bat. Also ends with HR.
Saturday, May 18th
Bottom of the first inning
Dedication and a grounded approach make you a favorite. Congrats!
so nice of that ump to give us a live breakdown of that at-bat
The at bat breakdowns like these are so entertaining and really make you wanna fall in love with baseball in the right way. Appreciating all the nuances of the game.
As a Cardinal fan I just remember him in the 06 World Series. The fact he’s still playing is insane
Willy best catcher in the league
Should do a breakdown on Jose Ramirez's first at bat from May 18th vs the Twins. 12 pitches to hit a homerun on his bobblehead night. So much fun to watch in person
The longest at bat I ever saw was Davey Lopes versus Al H rabowski the mad Hungarian at dodger stadium. Kept going on forever without a pitch clock.
Jose Ramirez already has three 10+ pitch at bats with a homer this season. Would be interested to see a video on that.
Those three pitches put together really looks like a careers worth of fine tuning and getting your pitches just right
Always love your breakdown
It looked like WC24 scooted towards the plate after that first outside fastball. Nice.
The honk the horn was crazy disrespect, shit pissed me off 😂
I like how jomboy managed make the bally scorebug a million times better just for this video lol
That hold on the second pitch was amazing
The lift on that fastball is immaculate.
I love videos like this, keep up the good work!
This is really a special at bat for him. Even at this age Verlander still pitches well, and is an all time great, slam dunk hall of famer for a reason. To battle him like this is really something to be proud of, an at bat youll really remember
That is just a great battle with two great athletes and someone had to win, but no one can argue the outcome
love how he jumped on that fast ball at 95..
J Ram has a couple of long ABs ending in a home run. One against Ober last weekend went 11 pitches.
Jose Ramirez had a homer on a 12 pitch at bat against Ober from Minnesota in the first inning on May 18
This is what I live for great vireo and amazing spot thank you
I love battles between hitter and pitcher like that. I like it better when the pitcher wins but it doesn't really matter. The battle is the good part
That change up reveals the better. It’s more than staying alive, you can see that he is triggering but then has to slow his bat speed down because he is ahead of it. He pulls it foul and ends off balance. That means he is looking fastball. To me, JV challenging him for the rest of the at bat is both mad confidence and ego, and it is both what makes him great and what makes him give up the home run. He is fouling you straight back, bro! He is on the pitch. You MUST throw something else, change up down in the zone, perhaps. You cannot let him see the fastball over and over unless it is 98+. Sweet battle, thanks for posting.
Was such a fun at bat to see - I was on the edge of my seat
I was angered by the "boos" from the crowd. I feel V put his all in this battle.
Yes and all the negative comments on Instagram calling him washed. That was an unfortunate result to one of the best hitters in the league at the moment
Too many fastball at the end, should have changed it up instead of trying to just blow it by him.
@sparkieT88 I think he missed his spot, if that last fastball is just slightly above the zone I believe it would've been an out
Ehh, giving up and spamming fastballs in the zone on a hot hitter fouling everything doesn't seem wise. He got the ol f around and find out. 2 outs and first base was open.
@@Sillydeath123 Why?? He fouled off every other fastball, why the hell would the next one be special?? Throw in another off speed and whatever happens happens, he clearly wasn't beating him with 96 mph.
JRam (Guardians) had a 12-pitch battle against Bailey Ober in the first inning on 5/18.
Just love watching this dude pitch. He got me into baseball after the series they lost but he still pitched like an absolute madman despite the BS
Gotta do a breakdown of verlander shaking off the rookie catcher every single pitch! Hilarious.
Great battle 👏🏼
Dylan Moore's first at bat of the game today vs Yankees (5/21)
He took his first two pitches well off the plate outside. Fell behind 0-2.
He didn't shake his head or say anything to the ump. Just stayed focused and worked the count full.
Then blasted one out for a two run homer!!! Straight business! It was a great at bat.
Classic Jomboy breakdown tbh
"Thankyou Jesus appreciate it" 😆
you should make a most sus moments in mlb and give us a breakdown 😂
Great at bat and great breakdown!
Always appreciate a battle at the plate.
Aside from yanking the one curveball, he didn't really miss a location egregiously. He just didn't quite elevate the 2 fastballs enough at the end. I was stoked to see the homer
great catch by that fan too
Love these.
the thank you Jesus to God dammit was pure comedy
These non Yankee breakdowns are always a treat!
Awesome breakdown
That was like the Altuve blast off Chapman. Garbage cans may have been involved
The Astros live in your tiny head rent free.
Love long duels, the upper hand shifts over to the batter after 10 pitches
Don’t see the wisdom in throwing that many fast balls down the middle in a row to a major league hitter.
That was just fucking awesome to watch. Man. 🤯
Love this kind of baseball content!
I’m loving seeing him do so great this season! Love Sean Murphy but AA shouldn’t have let Contreas go.. he needed 1 more year to get his defense up and now his hot bat! Best catcher in league right now!
Great breakdown!
Brett Myers (pitcher) had a 9 pitch ab vs CC Sabathia in game 2 of the '08 NLDS to get a walk, that turned over the line up and sparked a big inning.
Next inning he had a 10 ab, he ended up flying out but he was racking up Sabathia's pitch count on his own (he saw 19 pitches by the 4th inning).
And then a relief pitched comes in and his manages to hit a little flare out to right.
Not only did he spark a big inning and rack up CC's pitches but he also pitched very well that game - 7 IP, 2 Hits, 2 ER, 3 Walks, 4 SO.
the future of sports coverage
Jimmy killed the face overlay here
JRam has already done this three times this season.
PLEASE do the Stenhouse/Busch fight
Breakdown Alex Cora's 18-pitch at-bat against Matt Clement from 2004.
reminds me of the mookie at bat from 2018
May 21 Mariners at NY, top 8 Cal Raleigh 10 pitch AB.
C. Andrews debut first pitch is a HR for Luke Raley while Cal is on deck.
why did he just keep throwing fastballs😭😭
The Mets are probably like “where was all this for us”….🤣
reggie jackson vs bob welch1978 world series , i know it was awhile ago but memorable ,didnt have jomboy to break it down though .....
Mariners/nationals with some long battles in the top of the ninth today
This is how pitching in road to the show is like
Verlander unleashing his fastball with a full count and Contreras staying with it - prime baseball!
Love me a jomboy breakdown
I appreciate how Verlander is 41 years old still throwing 96 while being dominant
You should do a lip reading of what the dodgers were saying when that Korean actress threw the first pitch.
Verlander knows better. I've won the Cy Young 8 times in my MLB The Show League and even I know, you never pitch the same pitch 4 times in a row. 3 is pushing it! He should've went back to the change-up.
I almost lost count, but that was awesome!
The cricket world cup is on. Please do some breakdowns. It's hosted in the USA and west indies
nice breakdown blue
I need an Ole Miss vs Mississippi State sec baseball tournament break down
Reminds me of the Jesus Aguilar breakdown from 2018.
