Steve Carlton 1994 Hall of Fame Induction Speech
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- Steve Carlton was an extremely focused competitor with complete dedication to excellence. He thrived on the mound by physically and mentally challenging himself off the field. His out-pitch, a hard, biting slider, complemented a great fastball. He won 329 games -- second only to Warren Spahn among lefties -- and his 4,136 strikeouts were exceeded only by Nolan Ryan at the time of his retirement. Lefty once notched 19 strikeouts in a game, compiled six 20-win seasons and was the first pitcher to win four Cy Young Awards.

One of the the greatest lefthanders of all time !
The greatest slider in MLB history
One 1st class MLB pitcher & individual.
Tom Seaver,Nolan Ryan and Steve Carlton..they don't make pitchers like those 3 anymore
❤️ 1960s/ 1970s / 1980s sports ryan ryan 100 mph fastball : steve carltin unhittable slider
Kofax the best pitcher ever.
@@russscott552 sandy kufax greatest fastball & curve ever
@@russscott552 koufax was brilliant but he didn't play 24 seasons like carlton.
They do, but the game doesn’t let them pitch the way they used to. Give up a hit and a walk in the 5th inning and you’re out.
1972. Horrible team, one great season for #32.

1972 was the first year I started to follow the Phillies with interest when I was a kid. I got to see Lefty pitch two games at the Vet. He lost both of them. One, his 15 game winning streak was broken, I think in extra innings on a broken bat hit.
I'll never forget watching Steve pitch in 1980 vs the Pirates. A memory I'll always cherish.
Steve's a class guy. And a legend of pitch mastery, location, batter read and focus. Very deeply focused. Very Zen. And could hit a long ball. He made me proud to be a phillies fan.
Wow, he CAN talk.
Will never forget him and the rest of the 1980 Phillies.
The best!!!!!!!
Steve was never a talker, I'm surprised he talked that long, but he was a great pitcher, one of the best, very deserving.
You only get inducted once so he made the most of it.
Nice that Lefty acknowledged Timmy McCarver's abilities. Unfortunately, growing up in new york i only know him as a very bad announcer.
He was a very, very, very bad broadcaster but not a bad catcher. God rest his soul though.
My favorite baseball player of all time. I always mocked his windup when I pitched growing up....
Me too. And I'm an righty.
Really: unhittable slider & pitch randy johnson had a great slider ; i hear randy johnson slider was harder to hit than his 100 plus fastball
@@lloydkline1518 Were not talking about Randy Johnson. We are talking about Lefty
@@stepheng9746 well : ❤️ steve calton slider maybe best slider rver ; randy johnson had a great ider too; but not as great as steve carlton unhittable slider
@@lloydkline1518 Willie Stargell said that trying to hit Carlton's slider was nightmare.
I had the privilege of watching Mr. Carlton throughout his career, but the one thing I will say at this point is: what a great role model he is to all the young adults. It would be great for them to emulate some of the greater qualities he possesses. Thank you Mr. Carlton.
Met him twice at signings and got 3 of his autographs. Super awesome guy
Was mad when my favorite player, Rick Wise was traded for Steve. I got over it.
Me to
I watched Steve pitch many times and his focus was second to none and so to see this side of him really Shows me that this man was so much more
Than just an all time great baseball player 👌👍
One of my all time favorite Phillies
As a human being, he was, well, a great pitcher.
as a commentator, you are...forgettable, the opposite of carlton's pitching career.
Poor guy is a nutty prepper in the Rocky Mountains.
So in others words, he is smarter than you?
He's ready for when the shtf. If the grid goes down you're probably totally unprepared.

Yes, if, which means that while the probability is low it could happen. And it could be man-made or natural, like the natural emp of about 1869.

Steve Carlton told my dad to get lost when my dad asked for an autograph as an 8 year old. He idolized Mike Schmidt and Steve Carlton as a kid so I’ve never forgotten that story he told me. I’m sure he’s a better guy than I’m making him out to be but I’m not a big Carlton fan…
I was 10 years old and Steve was coming off of one of his 15 straight wins. I was in the bowels of the Vet holding my program and a pen, wearing my “Super Steve” jersey. Steve comes out of the ballpark and walks in my direction….and walked right past me without even a glance. Luckily little known shortstop Craig Robinson was right behind him and was thrilled to give me his autograph. I got over it. I still love Steve Carlton.
do not wear womens clothing like scmitht
