Great vid! Just wanted to point out that in 4:44 the dates showing the videos are written as 2021
came down here for this, im a nats fan and was very confused seeing 2021 and was like dang did they sign him for like 5 games or something because i dont remember ever seeing him play this year, very glad to know i wasnt trippin
Oops you’re right, that should say 2016
Nats fans will never forget Michael A Taylor as a postseason legend even if he only had one great regular season, the man hit .316 with an ops over 1000 in 16 career postseason games
Yup
Bin
Huij
Michael A. has a 5.000 career OPS in the world series.
good lawd
Sheeeeeeeeeesh
Taylor is my wife's favorite player. She was heart broken when the Nationals didn't resign him.
Im pretty sure he had the option to stay, but he would rather start for a different team than be a backup to Robles
He was a terrible offensive player. Struck out too much.
@@DCPete27 strikeouts dont matter anymore, look at aaron rise judge
@@billbosconovitch752 tbh aaron judge hits about 40 hr’s a season
It's so weird cause his swing just looks different compared to pretty much everyone else's, but my god did he play well in the 2019 playoffs
Don't forget about the 2017 playoffs
Oh, I remember Taylor’s performances in each of those games. As a Dodger fan…
i remember them both as a nats fan, both of us had the highest of high and lowest of low feelings about these games LOL
@@endeee6990 - At least your team beat the Astros…something I will tip my 🧢 for. So thank your team for making them eat words.
@@TheManny717 the nats of 2019 were just unstoppable in the playoffs, i wouldve been really mad if the astros won that year due to their very purcussable trashcans
@@endeee6990 yes as a dodgers fan I am happy that you guys beat the trashcos
I am in the same boat as your wife. My husband is a huge Trey Turner fan and I love Michael A. I was devastated! They have picked the Nats apart. It's been sad.
always loved the fact that you focused on players who aren't of the highest status. great video
michael taylor is one of my favorites. i got a signed ball and rookie card of his
Howie Kendrick was literally everywhere at once during that postseason
"In one game you can throw the first no-hitter of your career" and apparently if you're Tyler Gilbert do it in your first start. Hopefully the second part of your statement doesn't apply to him.
Great video btw! Love redemption stories!
Fun fact: Game 4 of the 2017 NLDS was Strasburg’s “flu game” often forgotten about. Some viewed it as gamesmanship, others thought he was just being “weak”. And then he came in and had his 12K gaming forcing game 5. And it turned out he really was pretty sick and gutted it out.
As a Nats fan who's watched Michael A. since the day he was called up, I dont think i've ever seen somebody more streaky at the plate in my life. He'd go 0 for 6 one day and then 6 for 6 the next. Great centerfielder, fast and intelligent base runner, one of the best utility men a team could ask for, and also a great human being. Nats fans will always love and appreciate Michael A. for giving everything he had every game. He's also a postseason LEGEND who helped us get a world title and is a world champion forever!!!
7:50 “Game 7” must be a Freudian slip
No problem, you’re still awesome!
A Freudian slip is when you slip your 4 year old niece some cocaine for her birthday.

As a Cubs fan, he broke my heart in the 2017 NLDS (Wade Davis put in back together), but I was happy to see him get a ring in 19
“You can throw the first no hitter of your career” as a guy today threw a no hitter in his first start ever
Thanks for this. Got a warm spot in my heart for this player as a Nats fan.
The royals weren't suppose to be rebuilding this year :( hope we resign him again
I absolutely love Michael A. Enjoyed watching him play and would rather have him than Robles
Taylor looks like he's dominating on defense this year. He may be jbj 2.0
If you throw a no hitter in your first game than every game after that would probably your worse
Clay Buccholz throwing one in his second ever start
tyler gilbert last night
As a Nats fan since their arrival in DC, Michael A. Taylor is a good I respected. He became a great backup and great fielder. Taylor also got a ring in 2019. He made out well.
As a Braves Fan, when I saw Michael A. Taylor's Performance against the Dodgers that Year in 2016, I had the same opinion that I had for Trent Grisham during the 2019 NL Wild-Card Game:
"That's it for them.... This game.... This PLAY will DEFINE that player...."
Negativity Bias has quite the way of Blinding us from the True Potential of a Player Sometimes.....
HOF cases for Billy Wagner and Francisco Rodriguez. Both have pretty good cases, but K-Rod might have trouble with the character clause.
Michael a Taylor was my favorite player, and he still is today even if hes on a different team
I got back into baseball from a 15 year layoff after watching the Nats in the 2019 Post season. This man is a personal hero and I’m glad I know his backstory. Even if he is an extraterrestrial visiting earth on a gap year from Epsilon 6 (their years are 10 of our years)
As a Dodgers fan, I've always liked Mike Taylor. He looks like he's a shy guy and about to cry at any moment. I'd give homie a hug.
Absolutely agree!
So Robles put up 1.8 war in 132 games in 2022 and Taylor put up 3.2 WAR in 124 games. The Nats chose wrong….pure and simple man. Taylor outperformed Robles offensively and defensively.
This reminds me of foolish baseballs brad lidge vs pujols video
I was in the gold seats about 10 rows back of home plate. Fans were hard on Werth and Harper that night, but 5-2 lead in the 9th? It wasn't Taylor's fault the Dodgers loaded the bases, but with the bases loaded and Puig at the plate, you just knew something was going to happen. And if I recall, that was Yasiel Puig bobblehead night, but yeah, easily the worst game for an everyday player I ever saw. For a pitcher, I saw Mark Pryor, in his first appearance off the DL, gave up 7 home runs at Wrigley in the first 2-3 innings. That was in 2006, I think.
His worst performance was me everyday in highschool ball 😹😹😹
My favorite player in the league. No swagger, moonwalking,gold necklaces and acting like a gangster everytime he hits a homerun. As soon as he makes contact(look at him when he hit that 492ft bomb) he drops his bat , looks down and starts sprinting towards first base. Thats how the game should be played. I hate fckrs like fernando tatis jr. I mean why try to act like a gangster when all you did was merely hit a homerun in a baseball game?
This year he has an average WAR for a regular starting player... but is the best fielder in the league. His UZR (fielding stat used for WAR) is the best in the league and way above second place. UZR takes into account the position which you field, though. Still, he’s also has the third largest contribution in defence this year, which is crazy for an outfielder because infielders, in particular catchers and shortstops, are way more likely to contribute to defence. So much so that 35/37 of the leaders in defensive contribution are infielders. And Taylor, as an outfielder, is so good that he is third.
The Adam Eaton’s, michael Taylors and other ten year players really make the game what it is. The elite can maybe stay in the game 15-20 years. The good stay about 10-12. The average 5-7 and the rest don’t even make it.
Taylor is doing solid with KC won a gold glove as the best defensive CFer in the league and got another 2 years and 9 million for his efforts. He’s putting together what will possibly be his 2nd best season ever in 2022 if not best.
So the Nats won the World Series with an arguably worse team overall than any of the teams they beat. So how did they do it? Variance? Or did they play a brand of baseball that the 95 plus game winners have sort of gotten away from?
Is he the only Player to hit a first pitch home run in his only World Series at bat?!? Yet they stuck with Robles who seems to struggle at the plate.
🤔 I'm thinking his Gold Glove award he just received means that, yes, Michael A. did have more he wanted to achieve! I hope you can add this to your video! Proud of him! I have also always been impressed with how humble he is. He might not have the big flashy career and off camera persona some of these other players have but he has always been my favorite player.
And now he's a Royal for two more seasons! Don't worry Nats fans, we love him here!
NLDS game 7?
How did Rendon even hit that home run? 3 inches off the plate.
Aye man… he mad it to pro ball which is what a lot of people can’t say
This proves that the game is beautiful!
This is just Giancarlo Stanton every week
I met him his rookie year in Spring Training, he shook my hand and we had a brief conversation. Always been a fan of his since then.
This is a great video no a nats fan but Great tributeto MT
Not trying to be a bias reds fan, but he was in coors field. So don't go after me, I'm trying not to be bias, and personally, I'd say it about any other pitcher
In 2015 i went to the game where the longest home run was hit 495 by Kris Bryant vs the diamondbacks
Man, it's hard to call that missed diving catch an "error," you know? He has his glove another 2 inches over and it's a highlight reel catch.
As a nats fan love Mikey T he was great for us
this dude show no emotion i glad he out of DC
Michael A. Taylor is a human RTTS Player
My dude putting in work! Thanks SportStorm!
#Nexpo great backing track!!
Nats fan here. FANTASTIC video, MAT is forever one of my favorite nats. Thank you for this video, nice trip down memory lane.
7:50 game 7 of the nlds 👍
Uhhh last I checked swinging strike outs were better than just watching a 3rd strike
5 strikeouts are still fucking awful bro lol
2019 NLDS GAME 7!!!!!!!!
REALLY SPORTS STORM!!!!!!!!
C’MON MAN THAT’S A MISTAKE THAT U SHOULDN’T BE MAKING
Baseball is the best
Another notable Taylor moment was his grandslam after replacing ejected Bryce Harper in Arizona in 2015. He also hit a big home run off Wainwright in game 2 of the 2019 nlcs and of course the controversial hbp in the wild card game.
Taylor's 5 k game was probably the worst game. But former mvp Joe Torre had a crap game in 1975. He grounded into 4 double plays. He was responsible for 8 outs. His teammate in front of him had a 4 hit day but was erased every time by torre's inept hitting.
I remember being like 6-7 years old and starting a taunt in left field with my dad yelling TAAAAYLOOOR!
we got the whole left field section going
Micheal Taylor was the guy that tried to rob a ball and threw his glove right?
no that was nyjer morgan
@@bitzer3 thank you for that
The Wade Miley thing wasn't as much a fluke of baseball as much as a fluke of cheating. I love my Reds but Bauer has done everything just short of outright saying "I cheated to win that Cy Young", Miley got that no-no along with everyone else at the start of the season and then the league finally started cracking down on substances and the rest of Miley's season has been a very resounding, very-Reds-esque "meh" at best.
Who’s here after Bo Bichette went 0-5 with 5 Swinging Strikeouts today?
Love playoff Michael a Taylor
A five ground into double plays game is worse. Making 10 outs in 5 PA , bad.
Anybody also should check out the howie kendricks lore man hes interesting
Whhhyyyyyy dooo yooouuu haaaaavee tooo taaaalk soooo daaaaaaammnn sloooooowww? C’mon man, get the damn words out ya mouth!!! I was born & raised, here in the Deep South, and I ain’t ever heard anyone talk that slow.
When the Yankees played the Royals earlier this season I got caught twice thinking somebody was saying my name when he came up to bat.
i like the fact that you talk about players no one else talks about. Cool details. The fat that Howie was involved on that play for both teams. The date of the events. Cool video. I think Michael A. is like the most quiet player on MLB.
I got a picture with Michael a Taylor he was one of my favorite players when he was a nat I was sad when he signed with the royals
Great video. As a Royals fan it’s nice to know more about taylor and what he has done both good and bad in the league. So again. thanks
Michael A Taylor is a really nice person. Guy deserves all the good karma
I'm a Dodger fan and I knew all about Michael Taylor
Dave Robert’s lost that 2019 NLDS
Judgey struck out 8 goddamn times in one fucking day, Sir
Game 7? Lol dodgers nationals ? It was an NLDS
It was actually the NLDS. Which is a 5 game series.
I remember watching a Dodger game and he made a error and the dodgers won and I always remembered him
Hey this was in the video😁
He was always the postseason goat
Nationals Legend MAT 🥲
Baseball will humble you quick
Another great video SportStorm!
Did u just say game 7 of the nlds 7:49
I was at that game and have never forgotten it
MAT was one of the best CF I've ever seen.
Is this Tony Hinchcliff?
My favorite player ever 😁
Now Royals have hom and he is a godsend
Taylor is a cute kid
And now he has a gold glove
When talking about the NLDS in 2019 he says game 7 instead of game 5. I forgive sport storm for that
game 7 of a nlds?
I was talking about him today at work. One of them quirky NATS legends
Funny thing about that world series homer. My dad and i were watching that game, and he said 2 oitches before Taylor homered that he hated that guy because every time he sees him play he sucks. But then he hit the homer and I just laughed.
what a legend
I legit remember being at that Dodger game. I was wondering if this video was going to be about that. Literally the only thing I remember him by.
Great video
Great video
This is a great video, MAT is my favorite player. Thanks for making!!
