@@BoatFarts It's unlikely that he doesn't know it. Most guys learn enough and can do normal stuff. They just prefer the safety of a translator when dealing with press. Ichiro is a classic example of this. The reason is confidence. It would really really suck to say something wrong and have that shit go worldwide.
First thing I thought of on that poke down the left-field line at Busch was, I bet he really wishes that ball had turned and just bounced into the seats. Wouldn't have had to hustle to leg out that ground-rule double :D
Me neither. Gary Cohen already has the best home run call in the majors, but this one was extra special. Bartolo was so loved in NY, it’s a shame he’s out of the game.
This guy has to go into HOF - winningest Latin American pitcher but also just for the character and fun he brought to the game - it’s not all about stats
Adrian beltre became funnier with rangers, seeing hum with red sox doesnt serm confident with that team, but he mature and became a legend and the funniest player in mlb history
In the middle of the 2002 season, the Montreal Expos traded three top prospects to get Colon for the pennant drive. All three prospects (Cliff Lee, Brandon Phillips, and Grady SIzemore) eventually became All-Stars. Lee and Sizemore are retired, and Phillips will soon follow. The last active player from that deal.....is Bartolo Colon.
He approaches the game like a game. That's the one thing I've always hated about baseball. These players act like babies when things don't go their way. Bartolo, plays it like a game, he has fun and it shows on the field!
The thing I love about him is that you can see that HE loves playing the game. In our heart of hearts, we are all still the kids who loved playing ball. Colon has stayed that way - he’s a great athlete, sure, but it’s still a GAME for him, not a JOB. That is just great and his joy at playing is infectious.
I always liked him, It's like no matter what team he plays on, he's a great guy and a legend, I love the fact is that he hit his first career home one with my team the Mets
Bartolo is a actually the god of all baseball gods I mean just look at the man 👨🏽 he doesn’t know English and he’s been jumbled around to like 10 different teams Can we get a round of applause 👏 for bartolo Thx
He may be active, but I doubt any MLB team will pick him up anymore at his age; he just doesn't put up the big league pitching numbers anymore. Last I heard he is still playing down in the Mexican Leagues though.
everyone at petco park were on their feet applauding bartolo for his majestic home run. it was like seeing a solar eclipse for the first time. he never played for san diego and there they are, cheering him on. clapping, bowing down, screaming, waving cardboard cutouts of his head. who else is so universally loved that he can get this kind of reception anywhere he goes? i dont know about the hall of fame, but his longevity and how much he is adored all around baseball should mean something when considering a vote for him. thanks for the memories bartolo! - met fan
I enjoyed watching Colon while he was on the METS, however, you can see that the man was so loved where ever he was!!! Thx, Bartolo for all your tricks as well as the great sportsmanship!!!!!
5:11 Who else wanted to see him try and steal 3rd? Seriously though. I wish I could enjoy my sport as much as Bartolo. He's so laid back... he's almost horizontal.
If he even plays--nobody wants a 45 year old player but I tolerate Colon. Don't like him but I don't hate him. He's kind of like Adrian Beltre or Andrew McCutchen. Hell Derek Jeter fits into that category of respect. I may be a Cubs fan at heart but I hold a lot of respect for ball players from any of the MLB teams (except Carlos Gomez, Bryce Harper and Manny Machado)
Great video..I could watch colon highlights all day(I mean that both ways)..I think one of the reasons why he gets so much love is not only that he makes god like moves but he does so looking like he has been sitting beside you on the couch...
Nice to see this guy. At 54 I just started getting into baseball to help my 10 year old granddaughter that started playing Little league Baseball this fall. I've seen so much bad sportsmanship in RUclips clips. Love watching this guy and how everyone likes him.
@Eliot Jurgensen I'm talking to you now because we are pretty relevant. We have the best pitcher in all of baseball that just won the Cy young. we've been making lots of splash during the off-season. Mets seem pretty relevant to me.
You can just tell the way he carries himself that he truly just loves to play the game. It's all about just having the time of his life and I cant get enough of it. Big Sexy will live forever!!!!
Bartolo es tan "heavy", q cuando corre, utiliza la energía cinética del Michelin para llegar más lejos y con más fuerza q nadie... Dele duro mielmanoo!! 💪🏽
My son and I were watching the game where Bartolo hit his one and only career home run. We had visible cartoon exclamation points shooting out of our heads! Seeing it again still makes me smile, partly because of the delight in Gary Cohen's call. Bartolo joins the ranks of baseball's iconic, slightly oddball players, along with Casey Stengel, Yogi Berra, and Dizzy Dean.
Bartolo you are the man baseball is sorely missing you we thank you for all the great baseball that you have given us and you will not be forgotten sir
Bartolo doesn’t need to learn English. English learns Bartolo
Jejeje
Miguel Ciriaco jajaja
I’ll give the man credit. For someone who doesn’t know English, he sure is good with his English speaking teammates

He knows English, he pretends he doesn’t so he doesn’t have to do interviews lol
Bartolo Colon is the only active MLB player from the 1990s. Let that sink in
If he plays until 2020 he’ll have pitched in 3 different decades and 2 different millenniums.
He’s old enough to be the father of 90% of the current MLB players. Basically anyone 35 or younger.
@@WesleyAPEX Four different decades ('90s, '00s, '10s, '20s). He'd be the 30th player all time to play in 4 decades
@@WesleyAPEX no. He's 45 so he's probably old enough to be the father of Juan Soto and that's kind of pushing it.
WesleyAPEX so he would have to be 10 when he had a kid? He is 45, and you said 35. Possibly maybe 25 or younger but that is still improbable
You think he gets pissed at himself for getting doubles? Like, "Dammit, they're gonna expect me to run to 2nd!"
Carlos TM bartolo is the fastest and most agile player in the league idk what ur talking about
Unknown Man he’s second in raw speed behind Albert Pujols
First thing I thought of on that poke down the left-field line at Busch was, I bet he really wishes that ball had turned and just bounced into the seats. Wouldn't have had to hustle to leg out that ground-rule double :D
He probably has first cover second while he covers first. lol
Juan T “They can THINK I’ll go to third.”
You know you're beloved when the opposing home fans are cheering for you.
Jed Honrado especially when it’s the phillies
Evan Risman that’s so true 😂
Ramzi Castilleja yep
😂
@@sadmetsfan7660 😂
I never get tired of watching his home run.
@Moo 😂
Announcers were laughing haha!!

Boycott if he don't make the HOF
He won't, he used a banned substance, so most likely no
@@gerrybigbe935 Oh yeah I forgot about that
@Calem LePage huge IF but I know what you mean, it opens the gates for everyone else
@Calem LePage but if Pete Rose can't make it in because of betting on the game then I feel steroids can't get you into the HOF
This guy has to go into HOF - winningest Latin American pitcher but also just for the character and fun he brought to the game - it’s not all about stats
Memes aside he’s still slinging heat. Especially for a 45 year old obese dude he is killing the game
Bananapeel81 46*
Memes aside tho
Josh Michels 45*
Bananapeel81 hard to believe he was skinny once
Bartolo isn’t obese we’re all just severely underweight
me: trying to be a straight male
my obstacle: bartolo
Underrated comment 👌 I have just found a diamond in the rough.
Hey, there's a reason he's _Big Sexy_
That’s what we all came to see
😂😂😂
😒 same
Colon and Beltre are probably two of the funniest players in the past 25 years
Miguel Cabrera
Felix Hernandez
brandon phillips
Adrian beltre became funnier with rangers, seeing hum with red sox doesnt serm confident with that team, but he mature and became a legend and the funniest player in mlb history
Lindor? Manny Ramirez?
Low-key wanna see Bartolo Slide to avoid a tag
I wanna see him hurdle a catcher to steal home 😅
@@TheGrossMeta 😂😂😂
High key fytb
Oh yeah!! 😆
Would you protect the plate if you saw Bartoli rumbling for home?
Bartolo Colon is immortal and so is this video! Still getting thousands of views a day! Thanks for watching!
Big facts Colon is god among men
Even the announcers are dead on about this!
!!! thanks for putting this up!!!
Thanks for making the video
I watch this at least once at week. I confess.
In the middle of the 2002 season, the Montreal Expos traded three top prospects to get Colon for the pennant drive. All three prospects (Cliff Lee, Brandon Phillips, and Grady SIzemore) eventually became All-Stars.
Lee and Sizemore are retired, and Phillips will soon follow. The last active player from that deal.....is Bartolo Colon.
That’s actually insane.
That off season, the Expos traded him to the white sox for a bunch of AAAA utility players. Horrible gm'ing there
Phillips is still a beast.
Sizemore never retired, he's trying to make a comeback
He approaches the game like a game. That's the one thing I've always hated about baseball. These players act like babies when things don't go their way. Bartolo, plays it like a game, he has fun and it shows on the field!
This new generation of players are too sensitive that's why I stopped watching baseball.
People sleep on his defense, he's super quick with the glove and he rarely makes errors
you forgot the moment when colon beat gordon to first base
That’s probably the only clip that isn’t in here. I went way above and beyond what anyone could’ve asked. I put 23 clips in here.
@@WesleyAPEX sorry, i didn't mean for it to come off negatively.
WesleyAPEX relax you bitchass niqqa you missed da most important clip
@@ShutUp22702 shut up
Did you put 23 clips in because MJ is number 23 and he’s the goat so you putting 23 clips is saying Bartolos the goat? Cause he totally is
The man is class act. He will always be a hall of famer to me
The thing I love about him is that you can see that HE loves playing the game. In our heart of hearts, we are all still the kids who loved playing ball. Colon has stayed that way - he’s a great athlete, sure, but it’s still a GAME for him, not a JOB. That is just great and his joy at playing is infectious.
Why they say nobody is perfect I show them this video
“Welcome back to the UGF Pandas”
Caleb Stevens lmao
Why are you gae?
Not a huge fan of MLB, but dudes like Colon and Beltre make it really fun to watch.
Munenori kawasaki aswell
Years ago on MLB the show 16 I hit for the cycle with Bartolo
RedBirds 618 a triple? What stadium
Jenrry Gonzalez prolly polo grounds
I always liked him, It's like no matter what team he plays on, he's a great guy and a legend, I love the fact is that he hit his first career home one with my team the Mets
And of course it was against my team the Padres 🙄
Which is pretty ironic, because he looks exactly like our mascot 7:51
Bartolo Colon is one of those rare players that you couldn’t hate even if you tried. He adapts, he puts everything he has into the game.
Bartolo Colon is the uncle iroh of baseball
I know right?
Bartolo is a actually the god of all baseball gods
I mean just look at the man 👨🏽 he doesn’t know English and he’s been jumbled around to like 10 different teams
Can we get a round of applause 👏 for bartolo
Thx
7:02 - 7:25. Baby Bartolo in those Cleveland days.
he looks like hes so friendly. hes always smiling too. His family is lucky.
BIG SEXY is a big legend....
I'm wondering, who gave him the moniker "Big Sexy"? I hope it wasn't Bartolo himself
the behind the back flip is probably one of the greatest defensive plays ever by a pitcher
“rips one, its a base hit colon, LETS WATCH HIM RUN... around first”
All players should enjoy the game as much as he does. He is a joy to watch!
met him in cleveland years ago. guy is a genuinely good guy.
Bartolo is an international treasure.
Lanzadores como Bartolo nacen cada 100 años, que orgullosos nos sentimos de tener a alguien como tu representándonos en las grandes ligas!!
"let's watch him run!"
Hope he makes it to Cooperstown as the winningest Latin pitcher. Always loved watching Bartolo!
From a Nats fan... Bartolo is a legend.
Bartolo is the only active player to have played for the Montreal Expos
wow
He may be active, but I doubt any MLB team will pick him up anymore at his age; he just doesn't put up the big league pitching numbers anymore. Last I heard he is still playing down in the Mexican Leagues though.
I wish he stayed in the majors long enough to have gotten 300 wins.
3:09 “this man will live forever”
B.Colon : *hits homerun*
Me, a mortal: This guy will outlive everyone
He was simply magical during his tenure with the Mets.
Every time I see the behind the back flip I giggle.
everyone at petco park were on their feet applauding bartolo for his majestic home run. it was like seeing a solar eclipse for the first time. he never played for san diego and there they are, cheering him on. clapping, bowing down, screaming, waving cardboard cutouts of his head. who else is so universally loved that he can get this kind of reception anywhere he goes? i dont know about the hall of fame, but his longevity and how much he is adored all around baseball should mean something when considering a vote for him. thanks for the memories bartolo! - met fan
He is a future HOF. Class act, pitched well, and loved the game.
Ramon Concepcion he took PEDs so not likely but I wish
I enjoyed watching Colon while he was on the METS, however, you can see that the man was so loved where ever he was!!!
Thx, Bartolo for all your tricks as well as the great sportsmanship!!!!!
MLB 19 Immortal
Finest Bartolo=99 overall
125 k/9

One of my favorite A’s pitchers. It was short but sweet. Future HoF. 🤣👏🏼
5:11 Who else wanted to see him try and steal 3rd? Seriously though. I wish I could enjoy my sport as much as Bartolo.
He's so laid back... he's almost horizontal.
Never seen someone have so much fun in the MLB.
Hahahaha dude Bartolo is awesome! I love how when he hit a home run his entire team was going crazy and then they all just ran away 😂
The shot heard around the buffet.
1:47 that's some next level shit.
I'm calling it. Bartolo hits for the cycle next season.
If he even plays--nobody wants a 45 year old player but I tolerate Colon. Don't like him but I don't hate him. He's kind of like Adrian Beltre or Andrew McCutchen. Hell Derek Jeter fits into that category of respect.

Great video..I could watch colon highlights all day(I mean that both ways)..I think one of the reasons why he gets so much love is not only that he makes god like moves but he does so looking like he has been sitting beside you on the couch...
He must play one year on every team. He's a legend
Nice to see this guy. At 54 I just started getting into baseball to help my 10 year old granddaughter that started playing Little league Baseball this fall. I've seen so much bad sportsmanship in RUclips clips. Love watching this guy and how everyone likes him.
“This is one of the greatest moments I’ve ever seen”. Only the big sexy can turn a homer into an mvp moment
One of the best pitcher and consistent ever
6:12 For the greatest moment in the history of Baseball.
The man, the myth, the sexy Bartolo Colon
Absolute Legend!
Someone needs to give this man a contract already!
4:55 When I hear the ice cream truck
LMAO I've never seen that Kingsford commercial. That was pure gold
Dominican pride🏃💙
Like he's funny, but also the interview at the end was really touching, and he does have an inspiring career. Great work Bartolo Colon!
2:47 best play in baseball history right here
The MLB HOF needs Bartolo.
What a wonderful person🙏🏾🙏🏾
I watched him pitch when he played for Cleveland and was sad when he left I always keep up with him
How’d this Mets team not win a World Series
Eliot Jurgensen took you 200 years to win one lol relax yaself
@@brandonvass Exactly.
@Eliot Jurgensen Oh, and i seem to recall that since the 2015 playoff sweep of the cubs, we own you record wise
@Eliot Jurgensen I'm talking to you now because we are pretty relevant. We have the best pitcher in all of baseball that just won the Cy young. we've been making lots of splash during the off-season. Mets seem pretty relevant to me.
@Eliot Jurgensen I dont think you know what the word "relevant" means.
Bartolo doesn’t need the HOF, the HOF needs Bartolo
The question is: What team hat will he wear?
I feel like the opposite teams even cheer for the big guy lol
I was so glad I got to watch him go out and have some fun for my twins for a season or two.
I really hope he lands himself on the team that wins the World Series next year (which will hopefully be the Red Sox). This guy needs a ring
It's kinda sad how long he's been playing and he still doesn't have a ring
You can just tell the way he carries himself that he truly just loves to play the game. It's all about just having the time of his life and I cant get enough of it. Big Sexy will live forever!!!!
1:20 made it to second without a heart attack~
Impossible.
6:12 it takes Bartolo a full thirty seconds to circle the bases
Bartolo es tan "heavy",
q cuando corre,
utiliza la energía cinética
del Michelin para llegar más lejos
y con más fuerza q nadie...
Dele duro mielmanoo!! 💪🏽
He’s a gangsta 20 plus year and still playing
Even Bartolo is mad sweet victory wasn’t played in the super bowl
Always thanking God for everything he’s been given, God bless you mr Colon
Most loved player of all times . BIG SEXY!!!!
Fun fact, Bartolo Colon has a higher WAR than mookie bets, Josh Donaldson, Chris Sale, and Buster Posey.
the man
the myth
the legend
Matthew the stomach
Announcer at 4:50 sounds like Kermit the frog
We loved this guy in New York. Great attitude, great pitcher, watching him hit was a joy. Wish the Mets kept him.

this is quite possibly the best video on youtube
The last clip is the best
I did that on purpose
WesleyAPEX it’s god in his true form
The Red Sox had had 'Big Papi' but baseball has always had a the 'Big Happy' - Bartolo you make the game fun and that's the reason we watch!
Poor Bartolo. Bitten by a vampire.
You don't miss the greats until they're gone.
Also I really really miss baseball.
The simple, classic game lets us know it's springtime. 😓
He isn't immortal, it's just Bartolo Colon's Bartolo Clones
Papa Colon!! How can you NOT love this guy? Absolutely best attitude, and the coolest under pressure.
Most loved bruh
Bartolo you are the man baseball is sorely missing you we thank you for all the great baseball that you have given us and you will not be forgotten sir
LEGEND
One of my all time favorites.
love how he never learnt english after 20 years what a G
The world needs more people like bartolo
