Tonight's Cole: A definition of what a dominant pitching performance is.
Nah he’s lucky they swung through fastballs right down middle
@@walkinator5869 lol thats quite literally dominating the hitters
Nah its spider tack
It's rare seeing something like this if your a yankee Peter puffer. Good luck trying to make the playoffs this year
@@walkinator5869 lmao lucky. Shut up
99mph on his 129th pitch to win a 1-0 shutout.
this was an all-time great regular season pitching performance.
Yup
@@Tourszs17 Isn't he just a cheat though? Not a baseball fan but isn't this the guy who's been using building adhesive on his fingers?
@@mathewjones8886 all pitchers were using it. It helps them grip the ball better and now that the MLB has stopped allowing it. Pitchers like Glasnow are injured because they have to hold the ball tighter. It will take a while for pitchers to get use to it but I’m a big fan of Cole so I’m happy to see him back to what he was.
Mickey Lolich could do that 15 or 20 times per year, and not even think about it.
@@mathewjones8886 nah
Cole is tired of Boone-Chapman ruining the game relationship
Well cole did a comeback so hoping chapman will too
You realize the Astros swung 5hrough at least 15 pitches right down the middle sometimes pitchers get lucky hitters have bad timing games another day this same performance would have been 7 runs
Because he blew it passed them that's why
@@walkinator5869 You’re really trying hard in these comments lol, just accept the Trashtros got dominated by Cole-train. Not a Yankees fan btw
@@walkinator5869 That means he pitched well if he was able to get it past them that many times
as an astros fan this brings a smile to my face, he doesn’t deserve the hate he is an elite pitcher
Man we should’ve brought him in the 7th after greinke smh 🤦♂️
so sorry to hear that
@@_shl_6103 AJ Hinch: I WANT WILL HARRIS
imagine loving the cheating astros
@@epicwolves125 - says the Red Sox fan
Never thought I would see a Yankee pitch more then 120 ever again! Great job Cole. He was fired up on the mound when Booney came out. I love to see it. Yankees have been bad!
129 pitches with the last one almost 100 MPH. Pretty good showing, Gerrit. 😁
This is real baseball. Old timers baseball
@@fordallday7347 BTW, when was Boone about to yank him??
@@johnathanpatrick6118 pitch 126 of the 129...it was hilarious.
@@raymondcarmine321 lol
@@fordallday7347 Yes sir, to be a MLB pitcher in the old days a guy had to go nine, or he didn't belong. No pampering.
That was Cole blooded.
nice
Absolutely!
and u win the comment section
Love it. You don't see stuff like this anymore.
I think Larussa could let one of the horses on my Sox (Lynn in particular) do this
As a Yankee hater, I am loathe to say this - but that was an astounding performance. Great job, Mr. Cole! And as an Angel fan, I thank you for doing it to the Astros.
Bro is really busy hating on the Yankees as an Angels fan 🤣 get a life
Angels won’t win a WS with trout, what a shame
@@wyattunger1677 your busy hating on him tho how about you get a life
@@jaxon2025 Actually, I think this is our year. We got rid of the big lead weight named Pujols to give room for Jared Walsh. I just hope we can do something about our Starting Pitching before the deadline. I'm still pissed we didn't sign and keep Greinke way back when. I wanted to make him an Angel for life...just like he has been on the Fantasy Dynasty team in the league I run. Looking for owners, if anyone is interested. The league has been going strong for almost 20 years. fantasy.espn.com/baseball/league/standings?leagueId=13426
@@69sidewinder As an Angel fan myself my entire life and constantly being disappointed, the only way the Angels will ever win a world series again is if they A. Stop making ridiculous contract signings of players such as Rendon B. Spend that money on Pitching C. Understand the true balance that a team needs of both Pitching and Hitting. You cannot win baseball games with only hitting regardless if we have two of the best players in the entire league. Sure, is Trout, Rendon, and Walsh injured? Yes, but the reality is that this team would get absolutely demolished against any really good team in the playoffs with just how awful our pitching is. Just imagine how different the Angels could be (granted if everyone is healthy) if the money spent on Rendon was split up on extremely solid starting pitching alongside Ohtani. They would absolutely get to the world series. No pitching, no winning.
Looking back, I feel like this has to be the single most dominant pitching performance of the 2021 season. A complete game shutout against the best offense in baseball.
Scherzer's perfect game bid comes close, and so do a few DeGrom starts. But nothing of this sheer magnitude.
He was on a mission to prove he didn’t need it and he really succeeded tonight
it was his best start of the year too
@@SH-ys4sl best start ever*
anyone here after his CGSO against the twins? LETS GO
The game that proves "I'm an ace" for Gerrit Cole.
It goes part way there but we coulda used him pitching that well against the Red Sox a coupla weeks ago! Still if he can turn it on like this in WC game for example or PS if yanks get their act together, then he proves he is still that dominant clutch ace for them!
Oh c’mon, is that really in doubt? He’s an ace with or without the CGSO. Can’t believe anyone is even acting like there’s a debate to be had here.
@@killthecardinals Yeah it's a bit in doubt, KTC. An ace has to step up but against Boston he did not and against the kid brother Mets, he also did not so yeah....we all begin to wonder. The performance in Houston was fantastic and goes a long way to quelling those doubts though.
Seeing Bauer’s fall has given him a boost in confidence.
Just checking on Cole before the 3rd game on the ALCS - #GoAstros - BTW - The Astros went to the WS in 2021...Cole was seating watching..
For those of us that actually watched this game, this was an inspirational performance. It was a tense and serious game.
Damn I guess he doesn’t need sticky stuff as bad as a thought
He never did he got paid out of talent. That sticky stuff garbage was used to get into his head
@@israymervalentin-arias6313 He used sticky stuff to get in his own head?
I mean all it ever did was make him a little better, it didn't make him the ace. It's the same as Bonds (albeit less extreme) where the roids didn't make him the best, he was already the best and got just a bit better
@@edwinlam4679 yea because he was told every damn pitcher (which is true) used it for advantage. If you believe only some pitchers did it then you are a damn fool.
@@edwinlam4679 and I mean he never did it cause he wanted to cheat. He did it cause he felt it’s legal and it was before the mandatory rule. Now his talent is showing. Every single pitcher did it before the rule change for DECADES.
129 pitches without the sticky stuff cole deserves at least some credit
Some?
he deserves al cy young
Definitely some yeah
He gets paid $36 million a year, and you're crying that he doesn't get enough credit? Get off your knees and get some perspective.
This is the type of start u expect from an ace now he isn’t as good as he was in this start but he still is the ace cuz there’s no one better in the rotation
What a beastly performance!
coles fastball on the 99 outside edge was really a flame
TRULY an amazing performance by a great pitcher.
Thank U GC
Should have saved that for the Wild Card game
Payback is a powerful motivation. Nice gem!
I saw the tail end of this game last night. That 129-pitch effort was awesome and all, but the best part of Gerrit Cole's performance that night was him telling Aaron Boone in a VERY passionate way that you're NOT taking me out of this game. I ain't no Yankees fan (I'm a Dodgers fan) but man, I was so happy when Cole told Boone to shove off and when he got that K to end the game.
y’all done motivated this man by bullying him about the substances lmao
So awesome to watch as an Astros fan. Dude was unstoppable. Just makes me bitter that we didn’t bring him in game 7 of the World Series. We should’ve won it all. Anyways, GG yankee fans !
129 pitches? at 100 mph? Nolan Ryan: "hold my beer"
That light to shadows situation between the mound and the hitter against Cole just isn’t fair. Hard enough to track Coles pitches then add on the shadows starting half way between the mound and home plate and it’s got to be a nightmare for hitters
Still throwing 99mph after 129 pitches, what a comeback after all this doubt.
The Kashmir intro after the 8th was epic.
That was! Couldn't have scripted a more appropriate song for the look, the swagger and the moment
This game was so emotional. That’s the Gerrit Cole I forever respect in the H-Town and vouch for
In 18 innings astros haven’t scored against the Yankees lol
As Yankee Fans we are going after that 2017 bulls-
@@SophiaElibaby they cheated, doesnt count
Actually 30 innings, we haven’t scored in 30 innings. Gotta love baseball man
@@SophiaElibaby try taking the Yankees out now without the sticky rule and new rules now
Without drum sounds
How managers motivate pitchers: “…. Or I could bring Chapman in for you..”
Awesome job by Cole. It's been a long time since I saw a starting pitcher throw so many pitches in a game. 129 pitches, and he ends with a 99mph strike out. Absolutely awesome.
This is so beautiful to watch - he needed this
Hi krys, how are you? :)
Gerrit Cole proving that he is too good for some of the more ungrateful Yankees fans out there.
Yankees fans aren’t ungrateful, they’re just upset the Yankees made him the highest paid pitcher in history and he wasn’t producing. Granted, I believe it was a bad stretch, but that’s what the New York media does, they overreact to get their headlines.
I think that the Bruce Lee ( not the actor, but user on RUclips) said this.
Cole threw the knuckle curve too often in the Mets game & against Boston he didn't locate his pitches well.
@@Ariel-td7us yeah NY media is ridiculous
Best pitcher game i have seen wow what a way to step up !!
Hey love the vids…keep it up🔥🔥❤️❤️
This was Coles comeback night baby!!
He finally finds the way to make himself perfect 👏👏👏
Cole told his manager to quote “pound sand.I’m finishing this damn game”
Best American League pitcher
Cole is an absolute MONSTER. Glad he had a game like this on the road against this particular team. GO YANKEES 💪!!!!!
still not the best pitcher in new york
@@bentatum8707 you’re right, Nestor Cortes Jr can’t be surpassed
Not a fan of the Yankees... but I'm glad he beat them damn CHEATIN' Astros
The Astros cheated the game, and your team as well, whoever that might be. I've never "hated" another team (Yankee fan here) until the Astros. Zero respect for all of them.
@@rla1000 tell manfred to open the letter
@@rosslyn713 Astro fans like you always refuse to admit the Astros cheated by passing it on to the Yankees. Typical Astro fan at its finest
@@l...l8748 I know ASTROS cheated! Lol you're the one thats avoiding my comment about manfred opening Yankees letter 😂
@@rosslyn713 rhere’s no evidence the Yankees cheated. Astro fans just like passing the blame to the Yankees for no reason
It was the Yankees' ace pitching. Don't worry about the outside noise anymore and throw it like you. Even the appearance of wanting to fight more on the mound was beautiful. 👏👏👏
From where did the dislike come? Even as an Astros fan, I enjoyed the video
from everywhere
nobody think he is innocent
There is a lot of Cole haters around the league lol
Probably the toxic side of the Astro fan base
@@user-tl8bl1pw5q well everyone is innocent now, you can't cheat anymore with the umpire search
@@thesportsapex1787 spidertack is easy to hide, i dont believe the umpire search is gonna solve the problem
Wow amazing today Cole perfect win
Man he’s amazing
There was time complete games were common ....today they are bigger and stronger and we marvel at it. Warren Spahn who looked like someones uncle had over 380.
“But but but spidertack” - Trashtro bandwagons
Thanks
No Correa no bregman Mickey Mouse series for the stankees
Michael Jordan cheaters🤡🤡🤡🤡 lol Judge mocked you
@@MichaelJordann23 ah yes, because the Astros are the only ones with injuries 😂
@@markkavanah8674 Ik
Damm!!! You show 'em Cole! What a performance!
History has been made here in this 🌎 of ⚾!
He proved to the fans and himself that he didnt need all the sticky stuff to pitch all he needed was his talent congradulations Gerrit Cole for an outstanding game and showing he is still a Force to be Reconed with
Best pitcher in basebàll.
Thank you sir, you are an American hero
That's Our Ace😤😤😤
People were talking about that check swing call on Gurriel and man, seeing it was actually pretty awful. Crazy performance from Cole though.
I was away yesterday and Gerrit Cole gave me a birthday present before anyone in my family
That was old-school bad-assery. You don't see this kind of performance these days, not very often, anyway.
GERRIT COLE!!!!!
BAY!!!!! BAY!!!!!
he straight up throws lasers.
Cole's spin rate dramatically increased when he got traded to the Astros. Before the Astros (on the pirates) he was already a solid pitcher
So many people said his days were over when he was already having an above average season before this game, now all I see is praise for him.. internet is such a bipolar trendy community
Gawd damn!! what a menace!
That pitching performance was nasty. His control and break was immaculate. Yankees need to step it all the way up
Ive seen perfect games that werent as good as this game. Cole is something else
Hope we see them in the playoffs
Finally, a manager that let's his pitcher be a man.
I wouldn't credit Boone too much 😂😂😂 he takes him out and they lose the game
Amazing.
Nicely done
well done Mr. Cole.. 👏
Cole was amazing and let's go NYY
Dude is scary good
Welcome back.
So apparently he doesn't need that stuff to grip the ball afterall
He’s elite
Cole is showing the world .....
And that is why he is the highest paid pitcher in a league
Back to the Future.
Cole is a 🐐
I’ll give u this he had a good game really good. But just one game ago he let up 4 runs in 4 innings. And he’s still not the best pitcher in NYC.
Gerrit cole is mister fantastic in the bronx 😎💪🔥
Joe Davis really is MLBs best announcer
very impressive
NOT a Garritt Cole fan or a Yankee's fan, but mad respect for giving the "high hard one" to the ENTIRE Astro's lineup.
Ice Cole 🥶🥶🥶
He’d better ice his elbow and his entire arm after throwing that many pitches !!! ⚾️⚾️⚾️
ROGER, The LOS ANGELES DODGER
Officially a Gerrit Cole fan.
That was nasty.
The definition of a pitchers battle
That's the pitcher I've been looking for.
Too bad he isn't motivated like that against every team. Yankee fans would love to see him dominate the Red Sox
And people said he couldn't pitch without the sticky stuff...
Not a Yankees fan, but this was great to see
Along came a spider ... and struck out. ⚾️ 🔥 ⚾️ 🔥!!!
And they said he needed stickey stuff
Mlb players good game plays
Not a Yankees fans but damn that's impressive, can't deny that. Is that the most pitches any starting pitcher has thrown this year?
Ummm... people saying he didn't need the sticky stuff... this is his first good game since that has been banned. Gorgeous game, but about time bro. You're getting 35m a year
Nope. He had 3 good starts before
@@mistersunshine1330 lol yeah right bro, guy hasn't looked the same since tonight
