The new designs added to the ballpark just makes this stadium that much better , I remember watching games in 2015 or 2014 when the bleachers where completely covered up with tarp, so lit
@@rwbteam7468 Ah yea the one I was thinking of was Bryant's 7th career home run, against the Nationals. I remember the broadcast having a hard time tracking the ball through the dusk and it looked like it was headed for the top of the board and ended up missing just to the left of it and on to waveland. Found a different video from 2015 showing it.
I hope they do better than a predicted 82-80 this year, it would be a shame to see the gang break up, I remember Rick Renteria’s one year with the Cubs and they went 80-82, a hell of a turn around from Dale Suvem’s 2 crappy 51 and 52 win 2 years, and i was like, this guy is it, then they fire Renteria in order to get Joe Maddoe, on of the greatest coaches, i was confused cause Rick Renteria looked like he knew what he was doing at the time with the Chicago Cubs, clearly not via results of 2 years with the Chicago WhiteSox, anyways, I heard more about Joe Maddon and was all of a sudden pumped as hell, then they went 99-63 in his VERY first year and got 2nd in the division, a hell of a turn around just in one year, they beat the Pirates in wildcard game and beat the Saint Louis Cardinals 3-2, in the opening round series, i was thinkin, holy crap this is our year, then we beat the Mets in game one of the NLCS, and I was so happy, we lost the next four ending a great season, then during the off-season and heard they were favorites to win the World Series, the opening series sweep against the Angels proved to me that this was in fact our year,see go 105-57 that year, and the round one sweep of the giants defined our season, we were the Cubs, and we were gonna be champions finally, the NLCS series, after winning game 1 but then getting down 1-2 scared me, we quickly get up to a 3-2 lead on them, we blow a lead and drop game 6 but end up winning the series 4-3 against the Dodgers, finally making the World Series, first time since 1944 or 1945, I do not remember, one of the years, we get down 1-3 against the Indians, and I was bummed, I had suicidal thoughts, just joking, but I was scared for the Team and the fans just thinking, ah hell, I don’t wanna wait again, tho I’m only 16 now, and was 13 the time, I still didn’t feel like going through what my dad and grandpa did, we take the next 2 games and tie up the series 3-3, and Mike Montgomery saves us and we are MLB World Series Champions, I remember watching the parade in a Chicago (I live in Oklahoma) too thinking, here comes next year, ignoring the stat saying that most World Series winners struggle the following season, and that is what happened, we struggled to maintain the second place spot in the division swapping off and on at second and third with the Brewers as the Cardinals were taking first, midway through the season, we got back on track, we went 91-71, barely clinching and winning the division for the second straight season, we beat Nats 3-2 after getting up 2-0 and losing the next 2 at Wrigley Field, either way, we still won it so..., yeah, then we play the Dodgers again in the NLCS, by the way making the NLCS for the third straight year, oh yeah, still though, we play the dodgers 2nd year in a row, we lose the first 3 games in a row, we take game 4 at Wrigley Field, yet I know that it is still over, and sure enough it is, we lose 1-4 to them, but all I have in my thoughts is positivity, I am positive we will do good next season, after hearing of a 21-11 Spring Training, I am hyped bout this coming season, these comes opening day, I remember being in class as a freshmen at lunch, 12:00PM, 3 hours before my varsity baseball practice for high school that I’m on, opening day is a big day there, I am watching, and first pitch of the season, Ian Happ drills one and its a Home run, we win 10-5 that day, and I have high hopes for this season we remain in second for the majority of the first half of the season before taking first just as we start the second half, I remember knowing that the Cardinals have to win 2/3 games in Saint Louis and the Cubs win the series against the Reds, which we do, and the Cardinals lose all three games to the Brewers, we end up going 95-67, but so do the Brewers, we play the division tying game in Wrigley Field, which is good, but we end up losing 1-3 and get second, end up getting the wild card spot and are going to be playing the Rockies, we lose that game 1-2 with a ugly way to end a good season, I hear about no big activity but getting 2 relief pitchers in the off season, and hear about a projected 82-80 season, and hear that joe maddon has rumors of being fired, but why, he lead the Cubs to a World Series Championship, first in 108 years, made playoffs four possibly five straight years, and has had 90+ wins last 4 years, tho this 1-2 start after we Should be 3-0 based on blown leads, our pitching starters are great, we need some, well, a lot of work in relief pitching, again we should be undefeated rn, back maddon,Cubs Of you are reading this, do not fire joe, I can already see the stars like Bryant, Baez, Rizzo, Schwarber, and Hayward, leaving, even tho Rizzo more than likely will reign, and Kris Bryant has already stated he wants to be a Cub for life, if he leaves, they will too I bet, it is about team chemistry, they didn’t probably have in factor KB being healthy, and besides the fact that it is typically incorrect anyways, I am thinking another playoff year, maybe 92-70 at but it is still in the playoffs, I am guessing we will make the NLCS again, but keep Maddon, we need him, this Chicago Cubs Team is great, and should be for a long time, don’t let that change, GO CUBS
That Scharbomb still gives me goosebumps.
"What in the world?" Best way to describe Schwarber's home run.
You should compile all of the craziest walk off wins in this century.
I'm thinking the only thumbs down are from Yadier Molina.
And Ryan Braun
Love how quickly Wood on the Dodgers knows Contreras Crushed it. As soon as you hear the crack of the bat he cringes! lol!
It's cool how they kept the Schwarber Home run ball up in that area didn't know that.
You can only end that video with Schwarber. Wow. Still.
I was hoping that was the one that would end it. Perfect
I can’t wait till Willson Contreras does well again in 2019. He has so much talent and power! (Bryant too but
Yeah I agree!
Nope
Do a video of all 40 of Ryne Sandberg's homeruns to lead the league in 1990

3:31 The Making of a Cubs Legend!!!
I was there for Bryant's home run at around the 2 minute mark. That thing was WRECKED!
3 people are Aaron Nola
Had to save the best one for last
Len Kasper is amazing at announcing
Is the ball that Kyle Schwarber hit still encapsulated on top of the video screen?
GTR&ELT Steve
I don’t think so, don’t know, but it should be lol
I hope so! Seems well sealed and in a good spot to stay put. Backed up the video to show the wife. How awesome.
Yes it is. I believe the knob that is holding up the ball is from the bat he hit that he with.
No, got taken down the following season.
It is, I did a tour of Wrigley and they point it out during the tour and you can still see the glass case up there.
Music was a little weird
Bam Bam crushing it against the dead birds is the best!
Did I enjoy that video Heyward ? Do you really need an answer ? 😂
if that video board wasn’t there, those shots would have went onto Kenmore Ave
"Mercy..." goddayum right
Is schwarber's ball still there?
Fun fact: no one has ever hit the center field manual scoreboard on the fly with a batted baseball from home plate.
Schwarbet’s bomb in the ‘15 NLDS reigns supreme.
Make one of all the bullpen dances
They should nickname that video board or just that area of the bleachers "Schwarber's Landing".
Yes!
Colloquially, it's known as the Schwarboard.
Is it cone-treras lil ice cream cone? Or is it con-treras like as a convict?
Ashley Jessee convict, he just says it uniquely 😂
Didn't Fowler hit one off the board right after Montero's Grand Slam in Game 1 of the NLCS.
The left field board is a lot deeper than 407ft.
It’s Len and jd and pat Hughes and Ron coomer
Which team has the best yt channel??
Cubs because they have the most subs
I swear there was one in 2015 or 2016 where Bryant hit the W on the win trust sign on top of the left field board or am I misremembering?
You're not remembering correctly trust me

@@danr154 yep you are correct!
Of course, they end it with the Schwar-board shot.
It was great seeing all of Jason Heyward's bombs. I hope to see many more of these monster shots from Bryant, Rizz and company in 2019!!!
HOLYYYY COWWWW 😇🐮🤓🐻❤️⚾️💙
