@@Yung_CaseOhhow tf?
Me and my friends tried it and got arrested
The fact Bell knew what the bet was makes it 100X more insane because that was in the back of his head
Plus it was on 3-2 count.
Dude..I would've gifted him atleast 10% after taxes
@@luciddreamworks Uh, Jay Bell made just under $57 million dollars during his playing career, I am pretty sure he doesn't need to be paid $100k from a fan who had nothing.
I literally cannot even imagine the pressure lmao. Imagine hearing earlier in the game that this lady bet on you to hit a GS in the 6th, you'd be like "hah that's cute, wouldn't it be funny if I got the chance?" Then the fourth inning starts to wind down and you're like "hmmm looks like I might actually wind up batting deep in the 6th... haha kinda funny but there's no way..." Then as the 6th goes on and the bases start getting loaded you'd be like "haha runner on base, that's cool! ..... wait we have 2 on and I'm on deck? what a coincidence, still no way though right? ..... holy fucking shit this is happening????"
Slow it down and look at that swing too, he gave it as much lift and power as he could at that height of pitch.
Bro...that last scenario is unfathomable. That has to be one of the luckiest (good) things to EVER happen to a person. Powerball jackpot odds have to be lower than that.
Imagine if she caught the ball? The universe would have collapsed in on itself.
That last one hit me in my feels
@@darklordojeda”And now she wins the secret prize no one knew about! Ownership of the team!”
yeah you have an exponentially greater chance of winning the Powerball compared to the scenario at the end of the video
I wonder if the announcement motivated the hitter to really go for a grand slam.
6:51 Bro found a way to continue his beef for Jamie Moyer💀💀💀
Hey, I'm a Phil's fan, he was out lovable ace
11:29 "this is one" shows a red cube "this is 241 milion" show an extremely tall tower

Contests for unlikely events with huge prizes are almost always run with an insurance company paying the winnings in the case the event actually occurs. Shamrock Farms probably just paid a token amount to buy the insurance, and got good publicity when the fan actually won.
Like the basketball shot thing the Chicago Bulls did back then. The insurance found an excuse to not pay but Michel Jordan stepped in and demanded that they or the franchise paid the guy. I forget the details but he got paid due to the media attention.
Although a few years back Warren Buffet offered $1bn for a perfect March Madness bracket and I always wondered whether he was business astute enough to insure it, or just wrote it off as an stupidly unrealistic thing
@@CalvinsWorldNewsHe literally owns an insurance company, its probably a pet/training project he has people run for experience. Plus then they can legit say they've handled bigger contracts when meeting with clients.
@@CalvinsWorldNewshe didnt get paid because the insurance claimed he was a semi-pro bball player cause he played at one point in junior college.
And the insurance company didn’t end up paying him the bulls organization paid him, years later he actually met Jordan who said to him "We made them give it to you"
@@MikeGlasses Wow MJ did something altruistic a first time for everything I suppose.
@@Benjamin-1776- bro MJ didn’t do anything out of pocket he made the Bulls pay it, Michael’s smart enough to not pay but get him payed
On July 26, 2021, as a member of the Houston Astros, Abraham Toro hit a home run against the Seattle Mariners in game one of a three game series. He was then immediately traded to the Mariners. In games two and three, he hit home runs against the Astros, making him the only player to homer against his future team and former team on back to back games (with an extra, bonus home run thrown in during game 3). Later that season, on August 31, he hit a grand slam, once again against the Astros, off of reliever Kendall Graveman, the man he was traded for.
Still waiting on the additional trade(s) the M's GM said were coming that made that move make sense.
@@Benjamin-1776-I just checked MLB standings as of 9/11/24 , mariners are 4 1/2 back of the div leading Strohs... perhaps if Seattle would get the player to be named the order would be reversed , Mariners win the series and finally a front office move would be proven true in " a move that makes sense" LOL .
I was there for the first home run he hit against my Astros. I told my Mariners friend that he’s a good kid and he’s gonna get a hit at this at bat. He hit a homer. That was the first time I ever clapped for a home run against the Astros lol
19:20 companies like it when you win, they got more than $1m in advertising from that
Typically these companies use insurance policies for payouts for these types of events, so they got the advertising while also taking full advantage of their insurance
@@milkisspicy5840 Came here to write the same. The only group not happy is the insurance company, and that should make us all happy 😃
They also always get insurance to pay these things out. It doesn’t affect their pocketbook that much. It’s the insurance company that really loses. (Edit: I am dumb and didn’t read the comment above mine. That guy figured it out first!)
These companies definitely get insurance policies to payout, they then get free advertisement while not even opening their pocketbook.
(Edit: while I did read the above to comments before replying, I also may or not be dumb and that guy figured it out blah blah something something first).
Zoomer soundtrack, zoomer conclusion. Fin
Anyone who is interested in the Dave Stieb story should check out the documentary done by Jon Bois. It's incredible.
Steib?
Stieb
as soon as he started talking about ruined perfect games I KNEW he was about to talk about Stieb....
@@CastafioreOnRUclips exactly
Fantastic doc. There also more 'crazy odds' in Steib's career.
As someone who isn’t the biggest sports fan, I love your channel. I wish there was something like this for every sport.
Commenting in hopes you get some recommendations
Baseball is particularly known for weird quarks. It's part of its charm.
Cult tennis
Not sure if it would work with the other sports. Being fictional, baseball gives him a lot of room to be creative with these stories.
coming up next "Football doesn't exist"
Later, after a several year absence from baseball, Dave Stieb ended up catching a home run while in the bullpen that ruined a no hitter for Roy Halladay in 1998.
Dave Stieb is a legend. Secret Base did a Dorktown series on him a couple years ago. Y'all should check it out because it goes hard
Fellow Dorktown enjoyer.
@@Kyoslilmonster Jon Bois is my spirit animal
@@alexrawlings541 incredible script writer and orator. I've learned a lot about presenting and speaking from him.
That is insane!
10:00 Jon Bois over at Secret Base made a whole series about Stieb's hunt for a perfect game, it's a fantastic watch, highly recommended.
The series was about how Stieb was underrated and robbed of multiple cy young awards. They just happen to mention all his almost no-hitters thru his career. It was more of a side topic, not the basis of the whole series.
you know its a good day when Baseball Doesn't Exist uploads.
Stole my comment

@@Spishy01 how dare he steal your extremely generic comment
I wish people would comment original things. Do you not think it's boring just to comment what millions of other people have commented before?
Jay Bell the greatest baseball player of all time in that moment lmao.
There's an entire multi-part two+ hour long series in Steib by Secret Base (and the brilliant Jon Bois), definitely worth checking out.
9:13 the odds aren’t actually 1/1.6 billion. That would be the odds of 2 *specific* chosen innings to be immaculate, while in a game it can be *any* 2 innings out of 9. There are 36 combinations of 2 innings, and the odds of getting a double immaculate inning in *any* of them is 1 - (1.59bil/1.6bil)^36 ≈ 1 in 44.4 million. Multiply by 1/9 for the odds of starting in the same place in lineup and it surprisingly comes out at a perfect 1 in 400 million chance for at least 2 immaculate innings in a game against the same batters.
Yeah those odds are super misleading. There’s way more chances for an immaculate inning than a perfect game.
I question that whole thing, given the comparative rarities of immaculate innings and perfect games. I mean, if the odds against throwing an immaculate inning are 4x as high as the odds against throwing a perfect game, why is the perfect game 4.78x _rarer_ in MLB history?

A dropped third strike home run to lose sounds like the most horrific thing that could possibly happen to a team sans a player dying on the field. It’s probably MORE likely for someone to die during a game than this happening.
hes out by stepping out of the batters box though, right?
I can't confirm this, but in my extensive baseball knowledge, this is the only time I've heard of that ever happening, conversely, cases like Ray Chapman and Alfredo Edmead among others are well-known instances of professional baseball players dying on the field, so yes, it is more likely to die on the field tham hit a dropped third strike home run
@@cryptocinna The batter would only be out if he gives himself up. If he takes multiple steps towards the dugout and no attempt to run for 1st, you can call him out because he gave up the out. However, by rule the batter makes his own baseline to 1st, so if he does take a step towards the dugout but quickly realizes the ball was dropped and starts running, it's still legal.
As a little league and high school umpire for 17 years, I've had countless arguments with coaches over the dropped 3rd strike rule because of this very fact. So many of them never seem to understand what "giving themselves up" means when you try to explain why the batter wasn't out right away, especially at lower levels.
This is why this is the best Baseball channel on YT
best sports* channel
>3 strikeouts in one inning is how we were able to get a 27-strikeout no-hitter in the minors. A highly touted prospect for the Pirates many decades ago named Ron Necciai threw such a game. It wasn't perfect; he gave up a walk, hit a batter, had an error in field behind him, and, crucially, had a man reach on a passed ball. That error was one of only two balls the opposing team put in play the entire game (the other was a successfully converted groundout); one wonders if his fielders started to get bored and zone out.
I’m in tears! Bell changed that family’s life! I love everything about sports so much, but it’s things like this that truly make me grateful for the game.
Imagine the last one if the lady was the one that caught the grand slam ball. That would be an impossible stat to recreate in a million lifetimes.
And then Jay Bell meets her and finds out she's his long lost sister who had been put up for adoption. His only memories of her as a child were playing wiffle ball and she would catch his fly balls.
Imagine the outfielder robbed the grand slam 😂
The "intended part" is important to that equipment rule. If you use your helmet as a shield on purpose, tagging it would be still an out.
I appreciate this comment. I was trying to figure out how the umps would rule a player out if he whipped his helmet off and held it between himself and the tag. I was thinking some sort of unsportsmanlike conduct ruling, but this is a pretty fair interpretation of the rule to cover that scenario. Certainly the player would have intended his helmet to be in his hand, regardless of where helmets are generally intended to be used.
We need a Jacky Chan skit, where he ends up in a baseball game at first base, steals second and stumbles midway to the ground. Second baseman gets the ball and runs to him, and Jacky is evading the tag on the ground. Cut to both their faces, Jacky looks comically horrified, while the second baseman stares madly at him, next second he starts to try tagging Jacky, while he evades/defends the tag Kung-Fu style for a minute, just to entangle the second baseman in his own uniform scoring the game winning run while the second baseman cannot free himself or the ball 🤣
@@burke615it was explained well last ALCS when Marcus Semien was tagged out on a pick off but the glove only touched his batting gloves that were in his back pocket. The umpires rules that since he was no longer wearing his batting gloves and the bat boy didn’t take them back to the dugout that he was “wearing” them in his intended place in his back pocket.
In 1990 the Red Sox hit into two triple plays... against the Minnesota Twins... in the same game. The odds of that happening again might be even lower than the odds of a team throwing two immaculate innings in the same game. Since strikeouts have become so much more common than they used to be, the rate of immaculate innings has skyrocketed in recent years to the point that they are actually more frequent than triple plays. Since 2014, there have been 46 immaculate innings in MLB compared to 45 triple plays.
More fun facts: After becoming the first and to date only team to hit into two triple plays in a game, the Red Sox tied an American League record in the very next game against the Twins the following day by hitting in 6 double plays. In spite of this, the Red Sox won both games. The Twins also hit into 4 double plays in the following game, making it the only 9-inning game in MLB history with 10 double plays. That 1990 Red Sox team grounded into 174 double plays, which is the single season team record. In spite of this, they still won the AL East with an 88-74 record before being swept by the A's in the LCS.
Man baseball sounds so cool I wished it existed
Steib finally getting one made me happy to hear. I never hear of him until right now but I felt so bad for him and its been 40 years lol
If Danny Jensen is ever forgotten decades from now, his rare circumstance is forever in MLB lore
The thing to remember about immaculate innings is that pitch tracking hasn't existed for a while, so tons of 3 strikeout innings likely happened before the actual number of pitches were tracked that were done in 9 pitches.
Also, with the immaculate innings and a lot of the other examples in this video, statistics don't always work the way they're being used. For example, 1 in 40,000 would probably be the odds of an immaculate inning IF the batters and pitchers were completely random.
BUT, if you were to take the best pitcher(s) and have them go against the worst 3 batters on the worst team who also happen to swing a lot, then the odds of an immaculate inning would skyrocket. The application of general statistics onto specific scenarios with added variables doesn't give an accurate representation of the real odds of something happening.
So, 1 in 1.6 billion and not even possible to calculate for two immaculate innings in the same game? Nah, even more so because it was the exact same three batters. For all we know they were told to swing at everything, or just trying to go home, or just terrible, or any other number of possibilities that impacts the likelihood of an immaculate inning happening.
There's so many games of baseball played so often, statistically speaking, we will see EVERYTHING conceivably possible inevitably happen during a baseball game.
I just hope I'm alive for the day an entire team craps their pants during a game 😂
If lightning struck and hit the pitching mound there's a good chance of that happening.
rare stuff in a sport that doesn’t even exist. now this is the type of stuff i can get into
1:45 the only one in existence
There’s a few more, trust me because I’m one😊
The ball catching math is off
One guy is between fans back to back, he can only cover a couple seats... 3 ball catcher had like a dozen seats covered
Dude was at an A's Home Game. There were maybe 100 Fans in the entire Stadium. Definitely less impressive
It was in one INNING, not just one game.
@@daysandwords yes, but still those balls landed in the same section and certain ones of those are more likely too
If it was a packed stadium and the person didn't have such freedom to catch them it wouldn't have happened, or if it did the odds of that would be lower
I hope you get my point
You didn't mention Harvey Haddix's 12 inning perfect game in 1956, which he lost in the 13th, there has never been another extra-inning perfect game in MLB before or since. There have been extra-inning no-hitters, but no-hitters are way more common.
Fun Fact: Haddix was originally credited with a perfect game, since he did pitch 12 perfect innings. Years later MLB changed the rules such that Haddix's perfect game no longer counted since it (and the game) was lost in the 13th inning. A perfect game only counted if the game ended perfect, not just nine innings.
Pedro Martinez did it once
@@God_of_Arson I looked that up and you are correct, however, Martinez gave up a hit to the first batter he faced in the 10th inning. Haddix's record will never be broken.
The way it ended had to be so frustrating. After 12 innings of a perfect game, it was broken up by an error in the 13th (runner reached 1st on E5, throw to 1B). Haddix tried to save the now no-hitter by intentionally walking Han Aaron to set up a double play to end the inning, which failed when Joe Adcock double to deep centerfield.
The Pirates had 12 hits in that game, and didn't score once.
@@TurtleMarcus Joe Adcock's double was actually a HR, but due to a base-running mix-up, he passed Aaron on the bases, so he was called out. (In fact I believe he might have only been credited with a single) I remember this because I had a book as a kid titled 'Strange but True Baseball Stories', and a chapter in that book covered this game.
@@steveburke1519 Yes, you are correct.
The odds of calling a grand slam in the specific inning and the specific player is just nuts!!! Add on the 1/300,000 chance of that person winning the tickets to attend the game has to make the odds in the high billions or even trillions!!
Can't wait for the next one!
Plays like this really make me wish baseball existed.
Baseball is just such a unique and amazing sport. Good thing we have BDE to make us some interesting videos about it❗
5:29 what I'm hearing is runners should put cleats on their hands once they reach first so they can't be tagged since cleats aren't intended to be worn on the hands hahaha
I took it as every player should deck themselves in a full suit of jewelry armor since jewelry doesn't count.
If they intentionally put cleats on their hands, then it's intended and they're still out. Had he intentionally used his batting helmet to block the tag, he's still be out.
Wow! The rarest play of all time was a GrandSlam! Jay Bell hits a GrandSlam in the 6th inning for a promotion for someone to win a Million Dollars is incredible, and this isn't something everyone is "WOWed" about is also incredible. Everyone should know this happened!
Dave Steib is the saddest tragedy in baseball. He deserves to be in the hall of fame.
best baseball channel on youtube, including MLB
Bros last name is GYAT😂😂😂 0:22
1:55 The announcers losing their minds over that third catch made my entire day.
5:40 So couldn’t any runner just take off their helmet and block the tagger’s glove?
My immediate thought lol
No, it'd be like trying to knock the ball out of the glove with your hand
Has to be unintentional
That would be still be intentional by the rule, so it'd still be an out.
I'm surprised the last one has rarely been talked about. I remember when it happened. Insane stuff but a ton of people had no clue about it until this video
I've been so bored and down today and seeing u just posted was like a big hug. So glad I found this channel, even if some people think I'm crazy for getting invested in something that doesn't exist (hahaha totally not played out 💀) seriously dude thanks for making these, hope life is being as kind as you deserve 🙏❤
"Is anything in baseball actually impossible?"
Yeah, the White Sox being good.
That June 26 suspended game had three different rare events:
1. Danny Jansen's double-team weirdness.
2. Joey Loperfido ended up being recorded as playing for two different teams (Houston & Toronto) in two different cities (Houston and Boston) on the same day. He came in as a defensive replacement in the Jays/Red Sox game, and also played for the Astros back on June 26. He's at least the second player to do so (Joel Youngblood did it, too.)
3. Will Wagner ended up making his official MLB debut (June 26, suspended game) 47 days before his first day in the majors (August 12th) because he appeared in the second half of the suspended game. I think a few players have done this (Juan Soto is the last one I remember).
I have to think these three rare events all happening in the same game has to be the rarest thing that's happened in baseball history.
These are some crazy things to happen in a sport that doesn’t even exist
And then Javy Baez says, “I think I can help him make a part two to this video..”
Not a single mention of the unassisted triple play. Almost never seen and more rare than the Perfect Game.
To date, there have been 15 unassisted triple plays in MLB. I think this video is just covering events that may happen only once or twice ever...and under some of the most absurdly unthinkable circumstances ever.
My one gripe with Jim Palmer is that he did not make me a millionaire. Baltimore ran a promotion called The Strikeout Sweepstakes in 1976. All you did was send in a post card and if your post card was selected, the events of the inning would dictate your prize.
I was all of 13 at the time hunting player autographs through the mail and I listened to the Orioles EVERY NIGHT. As part of my to-do list I sent in a post card.
When I heard my name over the radio 170 miles or so away on WBAL, I was incredulous. I was so glued to my radio while I did my homework like I did with every Orioles broadcast, I didn't even move to yell out something to my family.
As the lack of strikeouts dwindled from $1M to [whatever the second option was] to the third... I lost track of the game and the simple fact that Palmer did his job. I am sure it was no runs, no hits, no walks. I won 4 tickets to an Os game as the last option, and I actually used them about 20 years later. They were only supposed to be good for a year, but I think the management/office said "ah, we might turn this into a promotion too."
I almost wish I didn't turn them over, because that was a rare bit of memorabilia. The Os won the game I brought my small family to. And the Operations people were awesome to allow my belated claim.
I know it's not funny, but the player's mom getting hit when her son invited her to a game was funny to me
This was an S tier video. This is the type of video I send to people who dont even care about baseball.
The name of this channel reminds us that we live in a multiverse
9:30 actually it is pretty easy to estimate using basic stats.
So if we take the 1/1.6 billion chance of any game having two immaculate innings at face value (even though it’s actually even more, since you can’t just multiply 40,000x40,000 because of the first II (immaculate inning) using up one of the nine innings, so you need to adjust for an II occurring in only 8 innings, but whatever).
Now we consider that an II by nature can only have 3 batters, and the 3 batters will always occur according to the set batting order.
Thus, the odds that the second II would have the same 3 batters as the first is just 1/9. This is because whichever 3 are part of the first II doesn’t effect the odds. (Like rolling a dice and then a second dice having 1/6 odds of rolling that same number no matter what).
Taken altogether, there is approximately a 1/14.4 billion chance that two II’s happen to the same 3 batters in a game. (Approximation because the existence of pinch hitters would make it slighter rarer, we could round up to maybe 1/14.5 billion)
So in oher words much less than the chance of seeing 2 hordes of shiny Spinda with the same spot pattern
@@איתןשי yeah, two Spinsa with the same pattern in the same horse would be basically 1/4 billion, and having both of them be shiny is like 1/2.6e17, a number so big, 2.6e17 for reference is about equivalent to the combined number of cells that’s makeup 10,000 humans.
That clip of the guy at the Os game with the beer and the phone was faaaantastic!
Surprised he didn't mention the unassisted triple play. That is something Phillies fans are glad to be a part of.
Yessir. Morandini in 1992 and Bruntlett in 2009
This video makes me wish baseball existed
There was a one-armed kid in a baseball camp I volunteered for a long time ago. This kid had caught a ball at a game before. One of the main things of the camp was going to a real game for the local team. While our group went up to the washroom, a ball was hit into our section where this kid caught it again. Catching a ball more than once at a major game is already pretty amazing, but for it to end up in a one-armed kid's hand twice is a wild coincidence.
These videos are structured like a 30 second TikTok, except over 10+ minutes. It’s intense.
By the way for anyone wondering, the reason immaculate innings are more common than perfect games despite having lesser odds of happening is because there are 18 chances for an immaculate inning in a game while only one for a perfect game, (not 2 chances because both teams can’t throw perfect games in the same game)
You can have two perfect games in the same game now, if both teams are perfect through 9 and a half innings and in the bottom of the 10th the ghost runner scores the winning run without a batter reaching base.
@@PFBM86 whoa, that’s crazy never thought about that. Guess that means you can throw a 10 inning perfect game and lose lol
Couldn't they technically both throw a perfect game if the match goes to extra innings and then gets postponed due to a rain delay?
@@איתןשי in theory that’s possible but here’s the only way how, games will be suspended but will ALMOST never be called if there is a tie going into a rain delay. I say almost because the only way it could happen is if it’s the last game of the season series against each other so it would be postponed to after the season ends, but if the game won’t affect the standings it probably wouldn’t be finished, but the problem is that if the game isn’t finished then it probably won’t be called a tie it would just be voided entirely making it not count and both pitchers would lose their perfect game.
All the more reason to scrap that stupid rule @@PFBM86
Dear Mr. Baseball Doesn't Exist man:
This has come up a few times so I just wanted to offer: "koshien" isn't pronounced "ko-shen" but "ko - she - en." "En" is (being used as) a suffix that means park or garden.
Don't wanna be that guy (nobody expects you to have perfect Japanese pronunciation of course), just thought it'd be worth fixing for future vids. Keep up the great work!
Consider this - now with pitch clock violations, pitchers can now get immaculate innings with less than 9 pitches. Only a matter of time
This video is way more interesting than actually watching baseball
Joel Youngblood didn't go so far as to play for both teams in the same game, but he did play for two different teams on the same day, starting for the Mets in the first game of a doubleheader, getting traded midgame, flying to Philadelphia, and pinch hitting for the Expos in the evening.
Youngblood didn't just play for two different teams on the same day. He got hits off Ferguson Jenkins and Steve Carlton that day. He got base hits off two different hall of fame pitchers while playing for two different teams.
i have never heard of that last story until now, that's insane
Love hearing these rare events I know for me a highlight growing up was I once pitched an immaculate inning. Dave steib is a legend his luck that one year is insane
That last story is fantastic!!!
16:30 he was struggling to get that helmet on😂
i bet the odds go up in a stadium with no fans though. Dude at the A's game didn't have any real competition for those.
The odds go down when you say that the catches were in the same INNING though.
The odds of catching every foul ball at an A's game are pretty good if you're the only person there.
Prob another great video can’t wait to watch. Also would love it if you did one on fans rushing the field
I remember when your videos used to be poorly edited. You’ve gotten so much better. Keep grinding, and you’ll get to 1 mil subs.
a perceft game is harder than an immaculate inning 1 in 10,000 games immaculate inning 1 in 40,000 innings (for people that don't know there is 9+ innings in 1 game).
about 20 perfect games and 250 II
The last one is so crazy!
This is the best baseball RUclips video I have ever watched!
Yep the old generation is different and most people that are 35 or older have moms that are tougher than players today
@BaseballDoesntExist I really really appreciate how much time and effort goes into these videos you make. Coming up with a video idea then finding the clips in thousands of hours of footage, writing a script, sound and video editing and rendering/uploading. The work you do is really great and something I love🙏🏻. Too bad this video doesn’t exist because there’s no such thing as baseball.
If baseball existed it would be awesome
That last scenario needs to be made into a movie
when theres 4 people in the stands for an A's game, your odds of getting the ball 3 times probably goes up
sometimes the universe has a sense of humor.
Team under 20 minutes
The pacing of this video is a master class of editing and script writing.
That old dude next to the guy who caught 3 foul balls in one inning had his mind blown 😂😂
"The odds of catching a baseball at a game is 1:1200." Zack Hample: 😆
1:1 by sprinting around shoving everyone out of the way.
I’m so glad that lady won $700k after tax
Nearly everything in this video is insane. Fantastic stuff.
I’ve said this on here before but is worth repeating. I have not watched an inning of baseball since the 90’s but love this channel.
I witnessed someone get two foul balls in a row. I swear
I’m the A’s fan that caught the 3 foul balls!!
I can't get over your delivery in the intro.
"This guy's helmet made fire."
15:55 I was there!
For which part of the game?
Oh god this video has some hilarious math
Striking out the same 3 batters with 9 pitches doesn't make the event astronomically rare, the second occurrence has a higher likelihood to happen
Hilariously entertaining, funny and interesting.
The rarest play in baseball has to be a homer cycle - a solo homer a 2 run homer a 3 run knock and a grand slam in one game. Only has happened once in professional baseball to my knowledge.
In the 90's A Seattle Mariners fan won a million dollars when Alex Rodriguez hit a cycle. I thought that would be included in this.
I don't watch baseball but I watch your channel. I really enjoy hearing the great stories and the drama from someone who is so passionate about the subject. Thank you for sharing.
watch the secret base dave stieb docuseries everyone!
For the first time the name of baseball doesn’t exist actually stands. Some of these plays are so rare the stats for them literally don’t exist 💀
