also Merry Christmas!

If Yordan Alvarez ever plays in Coors, the international space station will be knocked out of orbit
If only he weren’t a lefty. That big ass grandstand in right field blocks his trajectory.
@@Gemnist98 he's not a pull hitter. He hits homers in every direction
If you're familiar with the name a created player a certain thing cheat code in the old MVP Baseball Games to get ludicrous batting power and 700+ ft. home runs, that's basically what we'd get here, but in real life.
It’s happening this July…
Escape Velocity ? ................. he's 'Go for MECO' !
The fact that they got him from the Dodgers for JOSH FIELDS and then he proceeded to rake, blows my mind. He even has pretty good plate discipline. And he comes up in clutch moments. What a joy to watch. It's just a shame that MLB is beyond awful at marketing their best players.
I smile every time im reminded.
MLB hates teams not named dodgers or Yankees.
He's just in what mlb experts say a unpopular market. Imagine him still playing in a popular one. He's like Tim Duncan of the Spurs. Put Tim Duncan in any other popular NBA franchise then all of a sudden he is the greatest of all time. It's about the uniform not the player that media likes to label the greats of all time.
He doesn't speak English fluently. That limits his market. Same issue that affected Hakeem Olajuwan.
@@rolandreyna215what would be a popular market then? Houston is the 4th largest city with a huge Hispanic influence and home of the most dominant team in the sport (along with the dodgers) for nearly a decade
Even though it was only the 6th inning, when Yordan hit that ball over the batter's eye, the WS was over. Even the Phillies fans felt it. That moment brought happy tears to my face, it was so beautiful.
When I saw schwarber bunt out I knew it was a wrap.
I was there and as soon as he blasted that ball, we all celebrated like it was over.
What would it be like if the Astros beat the Rangers this year? I guess we'll never know.
Okay lol. We’ll find out later if it was a one hit wonder.
I saw Yordan at a game against the Angels in September. Yordan hit a homer all the way to the back wall. He ran over to second, thinking he hit a double, and frankly, I did too, even as the train started blaring. Then he continued to round the bases in what I later learned was his first home run since coming off the IL.
In other words, I genuinely wonder if the man knows his own strength.
The fact you’re not even 21 and can make masterpieces like this is almost as insane as Yordan is. Your content is so nice to watch.
not even 21? I turned 18 a week ago
@@justmaxproductions even more respect. Happy belated birthday!
@@justmaxproductions late happy birthday
Please keep pursuing your video making. You truly have a comedic gift. The timing of edits and crafting of the narration is to notch!
@@justmaxproductions technically he was right you’re not even 21
Remember fellow Astros fans to thank the dodgers for gifting us Yordan for a bag of chips
Also, I was at ALDS game 1. The feeling in the crowd when he stepped up against Ray was unbelievable.
It was like every single person in the crowd knew what was going to happen. It felt like destiny, like the only thing that could have happened. Didn’t make it any less amazing though
As a mariners fan, I can also say I knew this was coming right when he was stepping to the plate with Ray on the mound.. what can you do🤷♂️🤷♂️We finally seem to be turning things around though. Julio 🐐 🐐
I was there as well. I remember telling myself that if we didn’t score in the 8th, I was going home.
Bregman and Yordan are the reasons why I still believe that was the best moment I’ve experienced in person. I’m saying that as someone who also got to experience Altuve’s walkoff in 2019 lol
I was there also. Tickets were stupid cheap for the weekday 3pm game. The next game they were $100 more. Man it was one of my favorite astros moments
Not sure if this was intentional or not, but the fact that this video is 44 minutes long is magically poetic.
#StillTippinOn44🤘😎🤘
I will forever love the Yadier-Yordan story. The Dodgers thought the Astros wanted Yadier for Fields which they immediately decline only for the Astros to correct them in asking for Yordan. In the end, I'm so happy we got Yordan.
Edit - Subscribed
I believe this is the most lopsided trade in Astros history, which overwhelmingly went in Astros favor. I call Yordan Alvarez The Bambino 2.0!!!
The perfect hitter......judge is allergic to October and November yordan comes to Play
As a Philly fan he absolutely crushed my soul, but well deserved in all honesty
As a Diamondbacks fan that lives in Houston, I apologize for not warning Mariners fans about bringing out a tired Robbie Ray throwing cookies. And showing that 2017 NLDS against LA made me almost throw my phone.
I'm a Blue Jays fan and the Mariners were my second team, until the whole thing I will vaguely gesture at lol. Yordan's immediate walkoff in game 1 cheered me up so much I just rooted for the Astros the rest of the postseason
That absolute crush by Yordan in Game 6 will stay with me the rest of my life.
That HBP Yordan took in the no-hitter was my wife's favorite moment of the World Series. For context, my wife is not a sports person and I make her watch the WS with me. That HBP did 2 major things, 1. It was funny to get since he got hit in the butt on the first relief pitch. 2. It was technically the game winning RBI.
your wife enjoys chaos
What would it be like if the Astros beat the Rangers this year? I guess we'll never know.
@skinnie2838 What would it be like if you weren't littering every Astros comment thread with this copy/paste puddle of unoriginal dog water?
I guess we'll never know 🙄
alot of the reason for this years success in the playoffs, his family was brought over to watch him play for the first time in person. believe it was mid september when they started attending. literally almost hit them with one of the homeruns.
oh yeah I forgot to mention that
well that does help as since coming to America he had been worried about his family and so when they were there that was one big worry he didnt have anymore and he was in a bit of a slump during that point in time but the first game his family was there slump over
This video taught me a lot. Especially taught me just how much I love Todd Kalas
That walk off never gets old.
Love it the man for sure! Still get goosebumps watching the massive homer in 22 ALDS.
Everyone talking about Aaron Judge out here but then the Cuban Missile Launcher pulls up. Thats what I'm calling Yordan now. Another amazing video showing that the Astros own everyone, except the braves they still whacked us.
now that is a good nickname
I love it. Plus, Michael Jordan won’t sue.
As a Phillies fan living in Houston, this video was tuff to watch knowing the ending…
spoiler alert: ball go far
@@justmaxproductions Yordon to the moon 😔☝️
Yeah. But tbh I’m just happy we made it this far lol
@@jesusquicksaves oh 100% , plus the video is really good so cant be to mad lmao
i was hoping you'd show the bomb he hit on September 9th 2019. His rookie year was the reason i became a big fan of his. I remember telling my friends & family thats *our* (houston's) big papi.
Moral of the story: never trade prospects for an Astros relief pitcher. In the 80s the Red Sox traded some guy named Jeff Bagwell for Houston reliever Larry Andersen. Who's Larry Andersen? Exactly.
Also Larry Andersen is the notorious Mr. Jello from the Mariners
If any one man was ever a daddy to a franchise, it’s Alvarez to the Mariners
Man, this was great. I used to be into baseball as a kid, but was never REALLY into it. Just started watching it again a little bit before the world series, and because I'm a giant space nerd, wanted the Astros to win. Yordon got my interest quickly.
This video though, man. I learned a lot from it, It was informational, it was funny. Kept my attention the whole time.
Keep making great videos like this my dude, absolutely loved it. Will be subscribing.
Lifetime Stros fan here, absolutely loved reliving it all and watching His Air-ness emerge for a second time, but might actually be more impressed with you editing, storytelling, flow, data, relevant footage, audio, and overall production. All of this was EXTREMELY well done. New subscriber!
bro just said "relevant footage" bump your standards up my guy
@@justmaxproductions However, I will advise that next time somebody pays you a compliment, just say thank you. Insulting them is not the way to keep your new fans, BRUH.
@@texashookem22 watch better channels then
@@justmaxproductions dude. I was watching YOUR channel, and then I highly complemented it, and then I liked it, and then I subscribed, and then you come at me, and then you tell me to go watch something else if I can’t take an insult? 😂 That make any sense to you? Doesn’t for me. But good luck with that strategy, I’m sure you’ll go far with it lol.
@@texashookem22 sorry I just don't like it when people compliment me, it makes me really anxious
Man your vids are just something I literally cannot get enough of. Like I’ve been scrolling through all of your past vids to try to watch them all bc I love them so much. I don’t know how you don’t have more subs. Keep up the awesome work, I know I will be watching for sure🎉🤞
Probably the greatest RUclips video I have ever watched
Probably the greatest RUclips video I have ever made
i will never forget being in my motor controls class for that game 1 walkoff against the mariners. literally everyone stopped doing the lab work to huddle around my laptop when yordan came up to the plate. we all lost it so much celebrating we completely forgot we still had lab work to finish.
I got to play the national anthem for his debut and I saw his first home run. So freaking cool
Yes he is one of the greatest hitters in baseball history pay that announcer
crazy thing is that was an Orioles announcer, bro knew
If you didnt know theres a really cool story about Yordons family. It was there first time ever seeing him play this year.
his parents were at Game 6! ruclips.net/video/DUJT7bUSX1Y/видео.html
Being at Yordan's debut game is going to be one of the highlights of my baseball watching life.
OMG this will never get old to me, I sat here and tried to anticipate what was going to happen like I didn’t know, like I didn’t see the games. I am so ecstatic as opening day is literally right around the corner. Let’s run this back, great story telling ability keep it up and Thanks.
Most brutal bat flip of all time...
it's the 1B to Bautista's 1A
The lead up to Chapter 7 is a beautiful piece of editing. Amazing work!
Meanwhile...I can't get enough of this video. Thank you for highlighting THE best hitter in baseball. It brings joy to my heart and elevates my excitement to watch his HOF career play out.
Me and a friend were at ALDS Game 1. Honestly this game went as well for the Mariners as they could've asked. They jumped on Verlander early, maintained a healthy distance and had a 5 run lead going into the 8th. Everyone was going nuts when Alvarez hit that homer, and I can only imagine what a gut punch it was to the Mariners. I think it was over at that moment. If the Mariners couldn't pull off that game then there was no way they were going to win that series, which sucks for them because they actually put up a good fight despite being swept.
And when Yordan hit the homer in Game 6 of the WS it felt like it might as well have been the 9th. It was such a massive statement for a man who doesn't talk much. I mean seeing that pitch go so far was a massive boost for us and such a demoralizing moment for the Phillies. It really felt that it was over- and it was!
Insane how literally everyone on both sides was expecting a walk off
What would it be like if the Astros beat the Rangers this year? I guess we'll never know.
Awesome recap of Yordan. Thanks for all the work! 💯💯💯
Great video man, good pacing with an excellent mix of comedy and information! This deserves so many more views 🔥
The blurring of Cole’s face had me rolling. Great video!
you video is entertaining AF!
full of awesome historical trivia, and weaves a fun tale.
i like your style!
keep it up!
I genuinely enjoyed this so much please do more
I waited a while to watch this due to the length, but RUclips kept recommending it, so I finally watched. And I’m glad I did. Great video!
I love this video, I saw the whole thing and you did amazing on this, very good amazing job, these are th e kind of videos I love to watch, Let’s Go Astros!!! And have a very good New year
Very, VEry, VERY well produced & presented!!!🤘🏽⚾️🤘🏽⚾️🤘🏽⚾️
This is a well edited video. Thanks, it was awesome.
i was there at game 6 in the 2022 ws, greatest experience of my life
same
I never comment under YT videos, but after seeing the amount of work put into this, and also being a die hard stros fan myself, I couldnt help but take the time to give all my kudos to you. Keep up the solid work!!
thanks! It was a labor of love
Great work man! Feels similar to a Jon Bois/Secret Base documentary but you've got your own flair so that it makes these videos really unique! It's also nice to see quite a few channels covering primarily the Astros now (you, Weston Kulisky, Solo Thought Sports, etc.) after all the crap Astros fans have had to endure for the last three years until our 2022 WS win. Feels so good to have Yordan and another WS Title on our team! Keep it up man! You're gonna be going far in the near future ;)
I have watched this almost 45 minute video 4 times now because it’s that good.
I think I watched it at least once
Amazing video. I loved the editing, and your delivery was perfect for a baseball video. I caught some of the easter eggs as well :) nice touches
15:37 Nick Anderson is in now, he can't make FT...native Houstonian and that's a deep cut. I remember the 94 NBA Finals, you weren't even born yet. Props for that. As an Astros fan, and a overall card collector of Yordan Alvarez. I thank you for this video. Man, it's just so fun to come back to some of these great memories of the playoffs. Go Stros, you have an overall creator style in the same vein as Foolish Baseball, and that's a total complement. Just subbed.
Amazing! tour de force video! Watching again this weekend!
Fantastic video! Laughed out loud throughout!
I was watching this vid on my TV, once I finished the vid I just logged in on my phone just to leave this comment, great vid, really great commentary and edits I hope you keep doing this and as always go ‘Stros
This video was incredible, keep up the good work brother
Love your videos! You especially love the memes and sarcastic takes 😂😂😂
The pacing, the meme, the JoJo's music. It's perfect. You you g man have earned yourself another subscriber
Souls in Minute Maid Park:

What about Chad Green?
Can't forget qualls
@@slayermcrx7519 forgot about him
Fantastic work!
You're the only one to point out the fact that it is possible to lose a trade twice.Good job!
The part where he says “and then that’s were, everything went wrong” hits
Pretty sure this is the first time I've seen any of your content. I cracked up several times, including once while I was drinking. That's a Sub. Nice vid!
I had a friend who was a big Astros fan. He knows I'm a Mariners fan, and he's always taunted me with the audio of that home run from game 1 ever since. We're no longer friends.
I respect your will to even click on this video
“Correa strikes out, Peña is better.” 😂😂
Great video man!! Keep up the good work
This was awesomely fun! Thanks for the trip down memory DR 😂
I was sitting on the first base side during Yordan’s debut. I knew he was real from the start.
Subbed to your channel over the content. Fan for life over the shared hardcore love of Air Yordan!!!
I'm telling you that 3 run nuke made me scream my head off the Astros needed that!!
Ngl I thought they would be shut down if they didn't connect but then pena and altuve kept connecting and yordan came to the plate he got his revenge on alverado by delivering a monster nuke to batters eye
this is absolutely hilarious great video
When i close my eyes i see this man (I’m a Phillies fan)
word in the streets is it's the last thing Philly fans see before they die, him and Kawhi Leonard
The ending was my favorite part.
me personally, laughing at Robbie Ray/Scott Servais in the beginning is my favorite part
this is the best video I've ever watched.
No idea why you aren't getting more views and subs. Your content is great! You clearly research and know what you're talking about, and not only that, you're hilarious! Easily earned a sub from me
By the way! Great Video! Funny as hell and very informative 😂🥰
Masterpiece 🙌🏽
Great video thank you for this!!
Awesome video! To be so young and reference Nick the brick Anderson even, blew my mind 😂
Your channel is my favorite baseball channel by far keep it up max you are dope
Nick Anderson can't make a free throw 🤣🤣🤣 I died laughing
Pure Houston GOLD
Can't wait to hear you announce a MLB game. Nice job sir!
maybe not as play by play or color but I could see myself chiming in as a Julia Morales type role
@@justmaxproductions Nah u need more air time
Great video I can’t believe I watched a 44 minute video of just Alvarez let’s go stros
Clearly you put a lot of effort into this, great video. Got a sub.
I did, the script for this was 21 pages and almost 8000 words
totally worth it imo
awesome video man! Yordanski!
Great video bro. Just subscribed!
This was an incredible video!!!!
Yo I’m not even a baseball guy, but your context is a great watch. I had to subscribe.
I own exactly 2 jerseys. One of the Houston Aeros, our old minor league hockey team, that my dad bought for me when I was a kid. And a Yordan jersey I bought his rookie year with a gift card only because they were out of Bregman jerseys. Looking back I still love Breggy but I'm glad I got the Yordan one.
I miss the Aeros.
just started the video so i don’t know if you mentioned it but it’s very fitting that the video is 44 minutes long
Such a damn good video keep it up!
Well done on this video. I clicked and got hooked. Go 'Stros!
Great video really enjoyed it. Subscribed
I hope it is noticed how often yuli's name is mentioned in setting up some pivotal moments that yordan was able to come through on. He may not have been a 300 plus batter but there is an intangible around Yuli in which he's able to be at the center of every pivotal moment in playoff series and I believe it would be a shame not to find a way to keep him. I'll put it to you like this. There are players who can bet .300 plus throughout the season and then get to the playoffs and back below .100 well Yuli is a guy that may hit .250 in the regular season only to show up and be a .280 .300 type batter in the playoffs. I hope Aberu understands he has extremely big shoes to fill.
Every single choice of music in this video ended up being the correct one
ik right it's a miracle
@@justmaxproductions The piano cover of the Better Call Saul theme was 🔥🔥🔥
Well done video!
If Alvarez had kept up the home run hitting pace that he had in his first week, he would’ve finished with around 95 home runs.
Great video men I enjoy it a lot 🙏
Baseball is a game of failure; and yet, when your slugger faces their best, ushers in that fleeting opportunity to reveal a magical moment in sporting history.
dude amazing video!
