The 5th inning was punishment by the Baseball Gods for that fan interference in game 4; and the fans actually bragged about they did it on purpose. Next time, keep your hands to yourselves.
PLUS... They got high fives and hugs from the yankee fans as they were being escorted out! Then all those NYC area podcasters thought it was funny and just a minor thing. Jomboy laughed at the assault.
So, you're THIS close to giving up on the Jets. Unless, of course, they start playing winning football. So, Rich, you're going to die having given up on the Jets.
The Dodgers were hungrier, you could see it on the bench. They played as a unit and had each others backs. The Yankees did not have that same feeling, everyone felt off on their own.
@@neal5068 Dodgers wanted it more. Those “errors” just tells me they were not confident as a unit. It compounded because no one came over and said “hey, it’s okay we got this” but they kept making more errors. That tells me everything.
The Dodgers scouting report on the Yankees said it all. They were "talent over fundamentals...if you run the bases with purpose and aggression, the Yankees will self-inflict harm."
There's an excuse for Rizzo... There isn't one for Cole. Pitcher ALWAYS runs to first and if the first baseman can run it to the bag they'll wave off the pitcher. The pitcher NEVER waves at the first baseman like, "I'm not gonna run bro, you got that?" I'm just glad it's finally over! Happy off-season guys! 🙃
The number of people who think they know baseball, that didn't get that that play was totally on Cole, astounds me... That's fundamental, little league level baseball knowledge. It HAS to be reactionary on the part of the pitcher.
@@IdolLord lol Cole could have run as fast as he’s ever run…doesn’t change the fact that he wasn’t ever going to beat Mookie to the bag. Rizzo played a bad first base, that play is on him
Key things Ohtani did from day 1 outside of his play abilities...signed for money that would be worth less, as long as the Dodgers could keep/get better players to make a better team, and play without a care to his body and soul...he played his heart out, ran, dove, played hurt, swung, etc... He has never acted like a primadonna, and the entire Dodger team is just a scrappier team. They believe in their talents, but they believe in their effort even more. They Yankees broke a lot of hearts, yes, but they also got to the big dance; only two teams get to be part of this every year, yet I expect the Yankees to be there again next year.
Yea, the Dodgers played wayyyy better fundamental baseball, plus Boone was outclassed by his counterpart. The skankees simply need to go back and learn the basics.
@@Rickenbacker4001C64true but there are other jets used by professional teams. The fact that a Boston team's jet flying home the Yankee beaters with the chip is the delicious coincidence. I mean it may not even be a coincidence; Patriots were probably happy to offer up the jet to the Dodgers. lol
i'm a new yorker who roots for the dodgers... and the picture of the guy ripping the ball out of Mookie's glove only confirms my allegiances (i watch mets games sometimes, but never have been to yankee stadium).
As a native New Yorker who has hated the Yankees for 50 years, the Bad News Bears way that the Yankees dropped the Series is gold! Every stupid error of this postseason was awesome, I'll never stop laughing.
As a Yankees fan when I saw FF hit that grand slam beating us in the bottom of the 10th I knew they were going to win. They have a excellent team for sure, but you could see they had the magic...they had the mojo. The Yankees didn't have it. Dodgers did and hats off to them for playing some amazing and timely baseball.
I do think the Dodgers were winning anyway, but the Yankees also gave away two games. This really wasn't far from being a 3-2 Yankees lead heading back to LA. The Dodgers were probably the better team anyway, and they were definitely the team that played better and so they deserved to win. But if I were a Yankee or a Yankee fan, I'd have a lot of "what ifs" running through my head right now, because it feels like they gave two games away.
@@camicawber Exactly. Boone using Cortes in high pressure situation after not pitching for a month instead of his other lefty Hill. The 5th inning when Cole does not cover the bag which you are taught to do in Little League.
Everyone's been talking about the Yankees miscues and mental errors but no one is talking about the Dodger's baserunning. Enrique hustling to 2nd to beat the throw by Judge. And perhaps the biggest one is Mookie hustling to first after weakly grounding to Rizzo at 1st. If Mookie isn't running at full speed... the Dodgers don't win the game.
The mistakes by the Yankees in that 5th Inning were utterly hilarious. That's how bad it was. A 5-0 lead with a chance to really put the Dodgers on their heels and they choke. That's difference at the highest level. You either make the plays or you don't.
That 5th inning felt like a bad Disney sports movie where the opposing team whos up by a bunch starts magically making a bunch of mistakes so that the main characters can make a comeback.
When pressure and stress are on, even the basic stuff like catching and throwing becomes mental for some players. Things that they do instinctively without thinking become conscious and deliberate. Mistakes then follow.
That was Judge's first error all year in over 160 games. All it proves is that he is human and can make physical error. The inning before he makes great catch and crashes into the LF fence robbing Freeman of extra base hit. Volpe makes the right play throwing to 3rd since his momentum was heading towards 3rd base, just made a bad throw.
@@SupeDefy There was no stress on Judge dropping that ball, it was early in the game with 5-0 lead. Seems to me he took his eye of the ball for a split second to see how far the runner on first had wandered off the bag.
At the end of the day, the Dodgers proved they were the more solid team. It wasn’t just happenstance that they got up by 3, nor that they capitalized on the Yankees shitting the bed in 5. They had their fundamentals locked in, they were cohesive and just played better baseball.
MLB reported record viewership for this WS, up 67% from last year. So tens of millions of viewers across the globe saw the Yankees get outclassed. As a Yankees fan, that sucks.
I thought of that also, but that was punctuated by the huge HR by Bautista of course. After all that I was expecting another HR by Freddie in that spot (who wasn't?). It also reminded me of the Steve Bartman inning as well. Once the bleeding started you just knew it wasn't going to stop.
That 5th inning broke me as a Yankee fan. I never seen so many little league mistakes in a single inning and yet it emphasizes how poorly this team treats fundamental baseball things like basic fielding and base running. This is an annual occurrence that Cashman's excel formulas don't account for whatsoever.
This morning as I was mulling over this I was saying to myself.. I will take nine Dustin Pedroia's in the field every time over what we put out there every day..sound solid fundamental player in every aspect of the game he was.. the epitome of what a baseball player should be...
Judge dropping fly ball was not fundamental mistake. He just dropped the ball for his first error of the entire year, bad timing. Volpe makes the correct decision to try and get the runner at third, makes bad throw. Once again, not a fundamental error. The only fundamental error was Cole not running to cover the bag and making attempt to beat Betts to 1rst base.
I gotta push back on the heat for Rizzo, not charging the ball. As a first baseman, his first priority is to secure the ball. When it is put to play, it looks like it’s heading straight for first base and so Rizzo is charging it. Then, due to the spin, it skips toward the outfield. As such, Rizzo winds up over running the ball, has to change direction and field it to his right. If Cole takes a better angle and runs full speed, he has a much better chance of getting to the bag and covering it in time to get The out. As another commentary pointed out, he seems to have a bad habit of not running these plays out and letting the first baseman do the work. My only criticism of Rizzo, is that he did not fully sprint to the bag, after getting the ball. maybe he makes the play and maybe he doesn’t. But he needs to go full speed, regardless.
Check the dodgers scouting report they talked about putting the ball in play and running the bases hard would make the Yankees make errors and that’s exactly what happened
As a west coast Dodgers kid who now lives in New England, I was feasting this week. I have nothing against the Yankees or Red Sox, but their fans, the fans around me make it almost impossible to NOT root against them. All I have heard for almost 30 years is "Yankees buy baseball," "Red Sux spend just as much and can't win" yadda yadda. Obviously a lot has happened since 1995, but the griping, whining, attitude, and arrogance has yet to wane. I'm just going to respond with 'Freddie Freeman' going forward. Now if the Raiders could just win a Super Bowl 🤞
All Yankees fans deserve this! Wosrt fanbase in sports. The sense of entitlement is out of control. Your pain brings me joy. As a Royals fan, it's awesome to know that we have won a World Series more recently than the Yankees. 3 times the payroll for zero titles in 15 years. You treat Aaron Boone like crap and he deserves better than your toxic fanbase.
@ if he picked the right pitcher to close game 1, they wouldn’t be in this spot in the first place. Who tf picks a pitcher who has not pitched in 6 weeks over Tim Hill? Who guess what? Pitches great the next game
It was remarkable! I'm a Dodgers fan, so I loved it! The Dodgers are too good to lose to a team who made that many errors. The Yankees gave that game away. They, the Yankees, would have lost the series anyway because the Dodgers are just that good! ❤
@ 😂 I’ve got my Kershaw Cy Young jersey, I was born in the Mike piazza era, and was one of the few in blue living in SF during the giants 10/12/14 Dynasty. Unwavering and now celebrating! 🎉💙
The Yankees fell like a bully who got punched in the face for the first time, they panicked after that, that's why the Skipper calls, the apparent lack of fundamentals and the instant bad decisions. For crying out loud don't go bragging about game 4 batting against an alternative bull pen or dominating a clearly diminished Ohtani.
🙋♂️50-yr Blue here: The fact Aaron Boonehead couldn’t detect NOBODY in that lineup wanted to see Tim Hill ever again is just another testament to how subpar he is at reading games in real time. I rejoiced every TIME they sent out anyone BUT Hill last night. Thanks, “Boonie”! 👋 🥴
I know being a baseball fan from Europe and lived in NY state when I was young (Reggie Jackson era), I can say that despite all the irritating comments from those who disrespect The Yankees and vice versa, Othani and Fred are super stars, accept that and respect it. Also Yankees Pitcher did a superb job ( If any of you have played ball and been a pitcher, you know how tough it is to see your team making errors). The game was great to watch and in the end of the day, it is played by humans who can make mistakes, collectively!!. That shows more how a good job the Yankees coach created such a team. Happy for Dodgers (Japanese friends are very happy) and sad for Yankees. But that IS great BASEBALL. Peace all!
GTFOH Rich, OF COURSE you should point the finger at Judge!!! The easy pop fly he missed in the fifth inning with two outs and his catch being the third led to FIVE runs! That one missed catch led to FIVE effing runs....
No, the missed play at first caused the five runs! The score was 5-1 at the time with two out. I don’t know what Cole was thinking after a brilliant performance.
If I’m remembering correctly, Judge’s error was with no outs, then Cole struck out the next two which would have ended then inning, but then it all spun out of control from there.
For a second I thought I'd changed the channel and was watching a little league game. It's like the Yankees forgot how to play baseball in that inning.
Why do you say a let down. Yankees have always been the team to beat. For generations it’s always been the Yankees. As a bleed blue Dodger fan since 1965, it was 77 and 78 losses to the Yanks. Then 81 came and Fernando mania. 88 with Heirshiser. The infamous Gibby homer. Now in 24 they win in the Bronx again. Dodgers were better. They had numerous 2 out hits. The made little to no mistakes on defense. And the pitching with only 3 healthy starters. Dodgers won. The Yankees got beat!
I was for the Yankees in the World Series until a couple of people changed my mind. Their names; Austin Capobianco and John Peter. After that, I switched to the Dodgers.
The reality being that good pitching, good defense, timely situational hitting, good base running, mixed in with occasional power win in the post-season. That has been the story since the inception of the game and it will not change. They Yankee organization appears to disregard the importance of defense and sound fundamental baseball, advancing runners, driving in runners from scoring position with singles, doubles, putting bat on ball and the ball in play, bunting, while prioritizing walks over base hits, and home runs over all else, the swing for the fences in every at bat, striking out 26% - 40% of your at bats is acceptable, even if you are a singles hitter. The unfortunate consequence of that approach being many loses in close games, because you can not string base-hits together to sustain a rally, can rarely score if someone does not hit a home-run, you give good hitting teams extra at bats and opportunities to score when you fail to make plays in the field, run yourself out of scoring opportunities and kill rallies. The World Series showed you everything that was wrong with the NY Yankees and their roster. Cashman constructed a roster without a single productive bat on the bench, no one who could be used and counted on to pinch hit, no bonafide closer, no center-fielder, no 3rd baseman. All of the starting pitchers are prone to surrender home-runs, often in bunches and they often struggle when facing the better hitting teams. Stanton is guaranteed to miss at least 6-8 weeks every season with injury, that is a given, yet Cashman had no contingency plan in place for when Stanton went down, no one on the roster who could step in and prevent the wheels from falling off. Dominguez was recovering from UCL repair surgery and should never have been the fall-back guy. He is unproven at the major league level, his defense is suspect, and guys recovering from surgery often suffer setbacks. Any and everyone but Cashman, knew that Holmes was not a closer. The guy does not have a strike-out pitch, pitches to contact, and leaves too many sinkers up in the strike-zone to be hit and often crushed. Balls put in play have a way of beating you, and Holmes proved that blown save after blown save. Weaver did eventually perform decent as a closer, but I am not convinced he is the answer. The MO of the Yankee offense when facing decent pitching the entire season was get shut-down for 7-8 innings, having perhaps 1-2 hits over that span, and hope to score against a closer. They have a roster that feast on mediocre and worse pitching and who are routinely over-matched and dominated by top their pitchers.
The New York Yankees' loss is one of the biggest collapses in a championship game, as is the case with the Atlanta Falcons' loss to the New England Patriots. Go Dodgers!!!
Yankees' great offense during the regular season hid all the mistakes and silly defensive errors. But in the playoffs little mistakes become big things when pressure is on. Dodgers made mistakes too but looked more fundamentally sound.
Dodgers were just more fundamentally sound and had more hustle. They never took anything for granted and hustled even if it looked like a sure out. They never assumed anything and made sure to do all the little things right. The yankees are talented but unfocused and undisciplined. They take too much for granted, look past some of the little things, and the Dodgers made them pay for it every time.
My family’s been on a trip to Ireland for the past two weeks. My brother-in-law’s been getting up at midnight to watch the World Series games, watching his team crush his dreams, have his hopes sore at last minute and climbing ever hired… Only to have them dashed on the rocks below. He’s said that one of the downsides of me getting more into sports is that my commentary is more pointed and harsh.
@Iesse13 His batting is good.....he got exposed by Dodgers pitching......which was pretty darned good. Judge is the hitting god.....but didn't say his bedtime prayers every night so God got angry with him.
Blame it to the Dodgers , they never gave up they were always looking for that hit on every pitch even when they were 5-0 in the game!!!!! #34 is probably very proud for what these team has accomplished.
As a braves fan I was rooting for Freddie to show out but the Yankees to win I was only half right lol but man Freddie killed it this year wish we never let him go
Im a Yankees fan, but Freeman is a BEAST! Why do pitchers throw meat to those who eat?! Study the damn lineup! Every hitter has weaknesses. Find them and exploit them. ❤ Go YANKEES!
Yankees beat bunch of bullpen bench pitchers in game 4. Dodgers basically gave the game 4 to the Yankees to rest their starting pitchers. Would have faced aces Yamamoto and Buehler in games 6/7.
Hey Rich....Remember when the Mets SWEPT the Yanks this year? Good Times Good Times. Oh and Rich.... Judge's HR is an Out in any other park in MLB Lastly .... What the HELL is Brockman wearing ??? DOOOFUS
All I wanted was a competitive World Series. I don’t think I’m alone. We hadn’t seen so much talent on one field in a long time. For it to go the way it did, everyone lost but the Dodgers.
The Rizzo ball was travelling quick and spinning - it's a case of a lack of time - to either charge it or for Cole to get to the base. It was a tough play - much tougher than the Judge catch and the Volpe throw.
A collective team subluxation. There are shoulder separations, like the one Shohei Otani suffered in game two, and then there are team dislocations that have significant effects like the one that the New York Yankees suffered in this World Series at the hands of the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Nice Beverly Hills Cop reference Describing Freddie Freeman “ Is this the man? Is this the man who wrecked the buffet at Chavez Ravine this evening?”
"Victory has a thousand mothers. Defeat is an orphan."
As a west coast Dodgers kid who now lives in New England, I was feasting this week. I have nothing against the Yankees or Red Sox, but their fans, the fans around me make it almost impossible to NOT root against them. All I have heard for almost 30 years is "Yankees buy baseball," "Red Sux spend just as much and can't win" yadda yadda. Obviously a lot has happened since 1995, but the griping, whining, attitude, and arrogance has yet to wane. I'm just going to respond with 'Freddie Freeman' going forward. Now if the Raiders could just win a Super Bowl 🤞
All Yankees fans deserve this! Wosrt fanbase in sports. The sense of entitlement is out of control. Your pain brings me joy. As a Royals fan, it's awesome to know that we have won a World Series more recently than the Yankees. 3 times the payroll for zero titles in 15 years. You treat Aaron Boone like crap and he deserves better than your toxic fanbase.
The reason they don’t win more often is bc of Boone, this just shows you don’t watch all of the Yankee games like we do as fans.
@thesoulsurvivor yea, Boone caused Aaron Judge to strike out every at bat. He caused Judge to drop that ball last night....
@ if he picked the right pitcher to close game 1, they wouldn’t be in this spot in the first place. Who tf picks a pitcher who has not pitched in 6 weeks over Tim Hill? Who guess what? Pitches great the next game
No one cares about the Royals or their fans 😂
I gots to respectfully disagree..... methinks the dallas cowpokes are more ridiculous.
90% Cole’s fault, 10% Rizzo’s. Cole didn’t for a nanosecond think about covering 1st
Rich 🤣simultaneously being a Jets fan and a Yankee fan this year is ROUGH
No Rich, you cannot.
When the Yankees lose, in the playoffs in particular, it is a good day in baseball.
It was remarkable! I'm a Dodgers fan, so I loved it! The Dodgers are too good to lose to a team who made that many errors. The Yankees gave that game away. They, the Yankees, would have lost the series anyway because the Dodgers are just that good! ❤
When Mookie reached first base I knew deep in my soul we were winning this game! 2024 Champs! 💙⚾️
You probably started rooting for them during the pandemic
@ 😂 I’ve got my Kershaw Cy Young jersey, I was born in the Mike piazza era, and was one of the few in blue living in SF during the giants 10/12/14 Dynasty. Unwavering and now celebrating! 🎉💙
The Yankees fell like a bully who got punched in the face for the first time, they panicked after that, that's why the Skipper calls, the apparent lack of fundamentals and the instant bad decisions. For crying out loud don't go bragging about game 4 batting against an alternative bull pen or dominating a clearly diminished Ohtani.
🙋♂️50-yr Blue here: The fact Aaron Boonehead couldn’t detect NOBODY in that lineup wanted to see Tim Hill ever again is just another testament to how subpar he is at reading games in real time.
I rejoiced every TIME they sent out anyone BUT Hill last night. Thanks, “Boonie”! 👋 🥴
Boone sucks for sure. He can't hold a candle to Rogers
I know being a baseball fan from Europe and lived in NY state when I was young (Reggie Jackson era), I can say that despite all the irritating comments from those who disrespect The Yankees and vice versa, Othani and Fred are super stars, accept that and respect it. Also Yankees Pitcher did a superb job ( If any of you have played ball and been a pitcher, you know how tough it is to see your team making errors). The game was great to watch and in the end of the day, it is played by humans who can make mistakes, collectively!!. That shows more how a good job the Yankees coach created such a team. Happy for Dodgers (Japanese friends are very happy) and sad for Yankees. But that IS great BASEBALL. Peace all!
When the Yankees lose, baseball wins.
Lame
America wins
Except when they're west coast doppelganger wins
GTFOH Rich, OF COURSE you should point the finger at Judge!!! The easy pop fly he missed in the fifth inning with two outs and his catch being the third led to FIVE runs! That one missed catch led to FIVE effing runs....
No, the missed play at first caused the five runs! The score was 5-1 at the time with two out. I don’t know what Cole was thinking after a brilliant performance.
If I’m remembering correctly, Judge’s error was with no outs, then Cole struck out the next two which would have ended then inning, but then it all spun out of control from there.
media wanted yankees to win. not this time....and next year dodgers will return and hopefully we can go through the giants and SD. licking my chops
For a second I thought I'd changed the channel and was watching a little league game. It's like the Yankees forgot how to play baseball in that inning.
Why do you say a let down. Yankees have always been the team to beat. For generations it’s always been the Yankees. As a bleed blue Dodger fan since 1965, it was 77 and 78 losses to the Yanks. Then 81 came and Fernando mania.
88 with Heirshiser. The infamous Gibby homer. Now in 24 they win in the Bronx again. Dodgers were better. They had numerous 2 out hits. The made little to no mistakes on defense. And the pitching with only 3 healthy starters. Dodgers won. The Yankees got beat!
Dodgers was by far and wide the better team in the series, and faced better competition in the postseason. World Series was the easy part.
The only letdown was Freddie Freeman not stretching his record for HR's in consecutive World Series games to 7.
Almost
No need to worry - he’ll extend it in the 2025 World Series
I don't care what team it is, you just can't reward sloppy and lazy play.
The most shocking part of this miscue meltdown of a fifth inning was that Gleybor had none of them
LMAO! The Goodfellas reference! "I thought you said I had it Spider!"
Glad for the Dodgers and Ohtani FINALLY getting his World Series Ring. That injury was Scary.
Truly feel bad for the Yankees and for Aaron Judge.
I'm an Angels fan first. But I was super happy for Ohtani! He totally earned and deserved that ring!
0:30 As a Michigan alum and lifelong Dodgers fan, I got to see my Wolverines and Dodgers both win titles in the same calendar year. Feels damn good. 😁
Been waiting for this all day!
I was for the Yankees in the World Series until a couple of people changed my mind. Their names; Austin Capobianco and John Peter. After that, I switched to the Dodgers.
Cole miraculously gets Yanks out of that inning and somehow he's being blamed for Rizzo's lack of athleticism and skill in the field.
The reality being that good pitching, good defense, timely situational hitting, good base running, mixed in with occasional power win in the post-season. That has been the story since the inception of the game and it will not change. They Yankee organization appears to disregard the importance of defense and sound fundamental baseball, advancing runners, driving in runners from scoring position with singles, doubles, putting bat on ball and the ball in play, bunting, while prioritizing walks over base hits, and home runs over all else, the swing for the fences in every at bat, striking out 26% - 40% of your at bats is acceptable, even if you are a singles hitter. The unfortunate consequence of that approach being many loses in close games, because you can not string base-hits together to sustain a rally, can rarely score if someone does not hit a home-run, you give good hitting teams extra at bats and opportunities to score when you fail to make plays in the field, run yourself out of scoring opportunities and kill rallies. The World Series showed you everything that was wrong with the NY Yankees and their roster. Cashman constructed a roster without a single productive bat on the bench, no one who could be used and counted on to pinch hit, no bonafide closer, no center-fielder, no 3rd baseman. All of the starting pitchers are prone to surrender home-runs, often in bunches and they often struggle when facing the better hitting teams. Stanton is guaranteed to miss at least 6-8 weeks every season with injury, that is a given, yet Cashman had no contingency plan in place for when Stanton went down, no one on the roster who could step in and prevent the wheels from falling off. Dominguez was recovering from UCL repair surgery and should never have been the fall-back guy. He is unproven at the major league level, his defense is suspect, and guys recovering from surgery often suffer setbacks. Any and everyone but Cashman, knew that Holmes was not a closer. The guy does not have a strike-out pitch, pitches to contact, and leaves too many sinkers up in the strike-zone to be hit and often crushed. Balls put in play have a way of beating you, and Holmes proved that blown save after blown save. Weaver did eventually perform decent as a closer, but I am not convinced he is the answer. The MO of the Yankee offense when facing decent pitching the entire season was get shut-down for 7-8 innings, having perhaps 1-2 hits over that span, and hope to score against a closer. They have a roster that feast on mediocre and worse pitching and who are routinely over-matched and dominated by top their pitchers.
Rich, I don't need 14 minutes to tell you this, THE BETTER TEAM WON !!!!
“I thought you had it Spider” 😂😂😂😂
The New York Yankees' loss is one of the biggest collapses in a championship game, as is the case with the Atlanta Falcons' loss to the New England Patriots. Go Dodgers!!!
As a KC Royals fan, I couldn’t be happier!
Yankees' great offense during the regular season hid all the mistakes and silly defensive errors. But in the playoffs little mistakes become big things when pressure is on. Dodgers made mistakes too but looked more fundamentally sound.
They also added 20+ pitches on Cole's arm in the 5th.
Dodgers were just more fundamentally sound and had more hustle. They never took anything for granted and hustled even if it looked like a sure out. They never assumed anything and made sure to do all the little things right. The yankees are talented but unfocused and undisciplined. They take too much for granted, look past some of the little things, and the Dodgers made them pay for it every time.
My family’s been on a trip to Ireland for the past two weeks. My brother-in-law’s been getting up at midnight to watch the World Series games, watching his team crush his dreams, have his hopes sore at last minute and climbing ever hired… Only to have them dashed on the rocks below.
He’s said that one of the downsides of me getting more into sports is that my commentary is more pointed and harsh.
Juan Soto to the Dodgers. I want to see the entire baseball world lose their minds
how much do the dodgers need damn smh
And they'll still be treated like a Cinderella team compared to the Yankees. 😂
I can see this happening, but why? They just won a WS with a team that will return all those core players.
fo 600 no way, his batting is godlike the rest mediocre
@Iesse13 His batting is good.....he got exposed by Dodgers pitching......which was pretty darned good. Judge is the hitting god.....but didn't say his bedtime prayers every night so God got angry with him.
Dodgers make history Teoscar wins homerun derby Shohei goes 50/50 Freddie hits Ws homeruns one of those a grand slam. What a year!
Blame it to the Dodgers , they never gave up they were always looking for that hit on every pitch even when they were 5-0 in the game!!!!! #34 is probably very proud for what these team has accomplished.
As a braves fan I was rooting for Freddie to show out but the Yankees to win I was only half right lol but man Freddie killed it this year wish we never let him go
Some battles are over before they even begin
It was the balk that got me. How do you make that mistake in a WS game? Yankees didn’t have a winner’s focus.
I really enjoyed watching the Dodgers celebrate on the yankees home field.
Every Yankees player(present/future) must watch this video again and again, keep it in mind.
judge's disgrace will be forever remembered as the yankees 'bill buckner moment'
Im a Yankees fan, but Freeman is a BEAST! Why do pitchers throw meat to those who eat?! Study the damn lineup! Every hitter has weaknesses. Find them and exploit them. ❤ Go YANKEES!
We still remember your accusations for Ohtani. Waiting to talk to you at the parking lot.
Yankees beat bunch of bullpen bench pitchers in game 4. Dodgers basically gave the game 4 to the Yankees to rest their starting pitchers. Would have faced aces Yamamoto and Buehler in games 6/7.
LOL, I just heard this: They invited Aaron Judge to Times Square on New Year's Eve... To drop the ball. 🤭
That 5th innings gonna get talked about for decades, maybe even a whole century.
2:07 Garrett Cole is the best Pointer in the MLB.
The better team won. Get over it.
that 5th inning would go down in HISTORY of "What Not To Do in Baseball Games", not just WS but Baseball games
Might have been the worst WS mistakes ever. All in the same ININING!!??
Hey Rich....Remember when the Mets SWEPT the Yanks this year? Good Times Good Times.
Oh and Rich.... Judge's HR is an Out in any other park in MLB
Lastly .... What the HELL is Brockman wearing ??? DOOOFUS
According to Statcast, Judge's home run would have been out of 29 parks - everywhere except San Francisco.
its Halloween, prob a costume idk what though
All I wanted was a competitive World Series. I don’t think I’m alone. We hadn’t seen so much talent on one field in a long time. For it to go the way it did, everyone lost but the Dodgers.
To be fair. The Rams haven't always had it this good
Rich leaving the history making to us okay 👍
Sincerely, Red Sox Fans
where were the red sox at this year?
@basebyonny where we always have been as the team with the most WS victories in the last 20 years 🤷♂️
@basebyonny We ain't even 10 years out from the last red sox WS appearance lmfaoo this was the Yankees first in 15 years 😂 what is we talking about
The sorrowful vibe of Rich’s monologue and then the sudden cuts to TJ and Brockman in costume 🤣💀
The Rizzo ball was travelling quick and spinning - it's a case of a lack of time - to either charge it or for Cole to get to the base. It was a tough play - much tougher than the Judge catch and the Volpe throw.
A collective team subluxation. There are shoulder separations, like the one Shohei Otani suffered in game two, and then there are team dislocations that have significant effects like the one that the New York Yankees suffered in this World Series at the hands of the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Just say 555 and the yankees fans will understand it.
So happy rams and chargers came to LA. No need to choose an irrelevant city to me ( f the jets)
