A-Rod carried the Yankees in that 09 postseason. Matsui had a World Series for the ages but the overall 09 postseason A-Rod just refused to let the Yankees lose. All the criticism he received for some past playoffs he just let loose for 09. His numbers that postseason have to be top 5 postseason performances by a player of all time. Amazing.
#8 (2:28) - Not sure if anyone realizes how crazy this was. At that time, A-Rod had 12 straight seasons of hitting 30 HRs and driving in 100 RBIs. This was the last game of the year and heading in to the final 2 at-bats of the regular season, he was sitting on 28 HRs and 93 RBIs. He ends up hitting a three run shot and a grand slam in the same inning to keep the streak alive. Absurd!
Yeah I remember him having that streak and I looked at his numbers before his last game and thought that sucks there's no way he's keeping that streak alive and then he did what he did and I was hyped and I'm not even a Yankees fan I'm a giants fan but that's still one of the coolest things I've seen
Oh, people realized how good he was but were hung up on that PED use and his personal life. But I'm with you, A Rod is one of the greatest players ever and I loved him with the Yanks.
As a cleveland indians fan who lives in Cleveland, A-arod was always my favorite player regardless of uniform. His swing was pure and was a great 3rd baseman too. Miss the good Yankee vs Red Sox fights too
I really have to agree that that game 2 ALDS home run vs Minnesota is probably his greatest home run as a Yankee. It reinvigorated both his postseason career as well as my own personal A-Rod fandom. I remember being in high school watching that game with my friends on a friday night and going absolutely nuts when he hit that dramatic home run and from that moment I was extremely confident the yanks were going to win the world series in 2009. Haven't quite felt that way before or since.
You are suppose to be a hankees man but you failed and now you feel guilty you should have never enjoyed 2009 that championship was for real people like arod not fake people who only hate like you arod taught you a lesson and spanked you into submission arod won new york that 2009 championship and hes a hall of famer unlike you fakey you make me sick go arod!
@@israymervalentin-arias6313 What the fuck are you talking about you goddamned psychopath? I left this comment because I am a fan of A-Rod and the Yankees and I remember that moment fondly. What the ever loving fuck for the love of christ is wrong with you.
The first and only jersey I ever bought was a pinstripe A-Rod jersey. I was 22 years old at the time. It's a shame the Yankees didn't let him get to 700 home runs. I understand he cheated but he's still one of the best players ever, and always was my favorite Yankee after Mattingly.
I loved baseball played in college, it was all I can think about. It is hard to watch now, with the defense shifting, every one trying to hit home runs, hit and run and bunts for hits are fun. I never been less exited that I am for this upcoming season.
All the things this man did wrong in his career and somehow I can’t help but like him. Seems like a lot of people in the game and his teammates liked him too despite what some have said. His teammates look genuine celebrating his on the field accomplishments. I mean look at that hug from Tex after his 3000th. Even Big Papi loves A Rod.
@Rob Gonz dumbass Someone already pointed out to me that I had forgot Ken and I told him that it's true you don't know how to read idiot plus A-Rod and Bonds still better
Word they got me thinking he really took steroids and all bc tbh I had to out down baseball for a while between the time he was leaving the mlb or Yankees and I had to go to the hospital so I'm just hearing this bs about hes a bad person and he does bad things but yo its just some fucking dumbass RUclipsr saying this shit and all the people who have not one clue about the subject watch the video thinking the everything the guy saying is true when he stating his own dumb opinions of how he thinks how bad someone is, got me wasting my time typing this smh
Actually he wasn't the greatest baseball player of his generation that would be Barry Bonds or Ken Griffey Jr. Alex Rodriguez would be third behind those two
Yesss! ! - Even though he flied out in the 13th, he got it on the next chance. 0-0 ended 2-0. And, we SNUFFED them SCORELESS for 33 innings in that 4 game SWEEP! "Clutch A ROD"
He hit like literal shit in the 09 playoffs, especially the World Series but god damn was he clutch. I remember every single one of these and just going nuts. Miss those mid to late 2000’s yankee teams that never could quite get over the hump until that special special 09 season.
I don’t give a fuck what people thinks about A-Rod, PED’s or no PED’s, he’s still a legend on my book and he carried the Yankees on the last title run.. A-Rod will always be one of the most entertaining players of all time! Btw I always loved A-Rod torching Bartolo Colón, he made it look so easy lol 😂😂😂😂
Dumpster plunks him, then throws 89 mph down the middle! Not sure why arod was upset when he didnt get suspended long enough, I think the red Sox should be more upset lmao
The first pitch of the at bat was behind him, the second and third pitches were way inside. And then on 3-0 he finally hits him. Girardi was upset because he basically threw at him 4 times in one at bat.
There’s a lot of players that used steroids and stayed mediocre. A Rod in my opinion would not have the same numbers if he didn’t use steroids but he would of still had first ballot HOF numbers. No doubt.
If Alex didn't take steroid he would have been too 5 players of all time 3000 hits 2000 runs 2000 RBIs 600 doubles .295 career batting average 1 world series ring multiple MVPs 700 homeruns too bad
His best home run as a Yankee was his last... Don't let the door hit you on the way out. And nice try at wanting to do everything Jeter does in your failed attempt to buy the Mets with JLo
Yankees fans treated him like garbage. He was the best player in the league but he wanted that Jeter love. If he knew the fans had his back he would have produced far more even than what he did.

Still garbage in every other postseason with the Yankees aside from 04 ALDS. He was a true loser
He also had so many very clutch hits in the '09 postseason
Steroid user….
1 championship he contributed to. All the other playoff appearances he was trash.
Jeter never carried anything except posadas ball bag

Looking at his all around stats and skill i think he’s a top 5 player
A-RODの芸術的なバッティング、めっちゃ好きだったよ😜
That one against Dumpster will never not be satisfying.
The most satisfying part was k rod getting plunked.
K Rod was a pitcher... you godda come up with something different
@@7curto a fraud
that one isnt bad
@@3rdPlaya0709 hold this L rod
The roar on the last one still gives me chills.
2009 postseason was special
Indeed
Yes it was, think I was only post season he didn't choke his balls off.
@@BillClay88 Arod was not worth what he was paid. One good postseason out of so many choke jobs including the mother of them all in 04.
Thomas Storff I mean he actually wasn’t terrible in 04. Just the way things ended and the whole slapping the ball shit
Totally agreed.
A ROD is the last N.Y. sports athlete to win a Regular season MVP
That is actually crazy
Judge was robbed
Judge deserved it 2017
Kevin Durant gonna be the next one

I love how Jeter appears everytime.. .like if he was always there for him or something, genius!
He always was the whole team had beyond great companionship at the time, were u not around at this time ?
I miss Joe Girardi. He was an amazing manager.

He makes it look so effortless, always had respect for A-Rod being a Mets fan
Mr. CEO,
The drugs he took work pretty good. But the bad thing is that they don't work after September.
That first one in Boston always gives me chills.
Right? I wish he would've staired it down, flipped the bat, and basically broke every one of those "unwritten" rulles.
How about the time he bitch-slapped the ball out of Arroyo's glove and got called out for interference? Did that moment give you chills too? Did me...
You guys know this man took steroids right? It’s not right in the MLB to take PEDs. This man’s career is going to be tainted by that.
The first and only jersey I ever bought was a pinstripe A-Rod jersey. I was 22 years old at the time. It's a shame the Yankees didn't let him get to 700 home runs. I understand he cheated but he's still one of the best players ever, and always was my favorite Yankee after Mattingly.
I feel so bad for Colon at #9 man :( he didn't have to do Big Sexy like that
legend has it that Bartolo still has a sore neck lol
@@serantav oof
Colon should've walked him after getting taken yard the 2nd time. One run is better than 4.
@@TRivera13 yup
At least he won the Cy Young that year
Not much of an A-Rod fan, never was but holy shit these plays were FUCKING BOSS!
My favorite A-Rod moment was right after the 2004 ALCS during an interview he says "We got our asses beat"....
A- Rod is a joke and i can't stand him in when he's on FS1 around the postseason and he's just kissing the Yankees asses real hard
I loved baseball played in college, it was all I can think about. It is hard to watch now, with the defense shifting, every one trying to hit home runs, hit and run and bunts for hits are fun. I never been less exited that I am for this upcoming season.
Ebbs and flows, the game will correct itself in time.

I'm sure that Jeter with his majestic home run power has just as many moments.
A-Rod and Bonds have the best swings of all time
Forgot Griffey and Strawberry. Those were beautiful swings as well
@@MrStick830 true
*Ken GriffeyJr has entered the chat*
@Rob Gonz dumbass Someone already pointed out to me that I had forgot Ken and I told him that it's true you don't know how to read idiot plus A-Rod and Bonds still better
Ya almost like they took steroids
You forgot a rod’s 500th which was definitely cooler than some of these
2009 Arod’s great season.
He batted .358 in 1996…. When’s the last time anyone has batted .358 and played over 140 games
most smoothest swing i have ever seen
youngest to 600. at one time everyone thought he'd be the new hr king.
Man I hate how they treated this man. The greatest baseball player of his generation
Word they got me thinking he really took steroids and all bc tbh I had to out down baseball for a while between the time he was leaving the mlb or Yankees and I had to go to the hospital so I'm just hearing this bs about hes a bad person and he does bad things but yo its just some fucking dumbass RUclipsr saying this shit and all the people who have not one clue about the subject watch the video thinking the everything the guy saying is true when he stating his own dumb opinions of how he thinks how bad someone is, got me wasting my time typing this smh

AR13: 🏆
Haters can say alll they want....Arod is one of the best that ever play the game ever!!!!!!!!
He was great. Best baseball player Ive seen play
Sorry if it’s already been commented, but his 3000th was verlander saying here ya go...
The juices are flowing quite strongly in the contents of this video
Loved Alex and still do!
As a pitcher it must be terrifying to face A-rod at anytime
You forgot his walk off HR in the bottom of the 15th against Boston 2009
Yesss! ! - Even though he flied out in the 13th, he got it on the next chance. 0-0 ended 2-0. And, we SNUFFED them SCORELESS for 33 innings in that 4 game SWEEP! "Clutch A ROD"
What about his walk off grand slam vs Baltimore on 04/07/07 why isn't that on the list? I was at that game that was amazing!
Homer in game 2 was probably the loudest that I’ve ever heard the new Stadium
jeter and arod hit a HR for their 3000th hit
He hit like literal shit in the 09 playoffs, especially the World Series but god damn was he clutch. I remember every single one of these and just going nuts. Miss those mid to late 2000’s yankee teams that never could quite get over the hump until that special special 09 season.
He hit over .320 in the playoffs in 09 you idiot
Clip 9 A Rod was acting like it was RTTS in mlb 😂😭😭😭
The good old days
I don’t give a fuck what people thinks about A-Rod, PED’s or no PED’s, he’s still a legend on my book and he carried the Yankees on the last title run.. A-Rod will always be one of the most entertaining players of all time! Btw I always loved A-Rod torching Bartolo Colón, he made it look so easy lol 😂😂😂😂
The best player that ever touch a béisbol Bat sorry for the haters
The ability to go oppo with such power is amazing. Judge has that same ability.
He almost hit for a home run cycle.
As a Twins fan, I politely request that this video be deleted.
No kidding..
My goat!
Last game in 2009 was insane!!! 30hr 100rbi!!!
A-Rod shoud be hall of famer
Imagine you give up 9 runs to a team and they’re all to the same guy. Poor Colon.
A-Rod made baseball so easy
Why was Bartolo still in after giving up 5 runs
Eres el mejor alex, mi hijo llevará tu nombre
Algo heemoso, el Swing mas dulce, hacia kucir fácil un batazo de 430 pies
Yankees Should Retire his Jersey at least
Had that argument today what a coincidence. I say no to 13 being retired
It’s so obvious jeter didnt like arod, he didn’t smile once for any of those HR’s that were hit
Dumpster plunks him, then throws 89 mph down the middle! Not sure why arod was upset when he didnt get suspended long enough, I think the red Sox should be more upset lmao
10 A Bombs from A Rod!
I just realized all the young players that loved A-Rod wind up using PED's. Cano and Melky used to look up to him
Cervelli too
Always find Boston fans chanting steroids at Arod funny as David Ortiz sits in the dugout
Don't forget Manny Ramirez
why did mike let colon face arod for a 3rd time even with the bases loaded 🤣
All I gotta say is why they did Bartolo Colon dirty to have him face A-Rod all 3 times?!
Great video but if you're gonna do something do it right. Should be in year order. Other than that love it
Δεν έπρεπε να πάρει αναβολικά,έκανε ανοησία.παρολα αυτά τεράστιος παίχτης!!!

2009年のWS最終戦に松井の大爆発なかったらMVPは間違いなく彼になっていた。
ヤンキースに来る前から松井は大好きだけど、同じくらいA.ロッドも大好き。
what a fucking baller
How is the walk off grand slam not number 1, let alone not even on this list?
Why was coach yelling at ump after a rod got hit?
The first pitch of the at bat was behind him, the second and third pitches were way inside. And then on 3-0 he finally hits him. Girardi was upset because he basically threw at him 4 times in one at bat.
@@7curto And no ejection
Love how the thumbnail has the Sox up lmaoooo. Go sawx
Zack hample!!!
Joe girardi was a goated manager
As a kid
That’s all I wanted to be
There’s a lot of players that used steroids and stayed mediocre. A Rod in my opinion would not have the same numbers if he didn’t use steroids but he would of still had first ballot HOF numbers. No doubt.
ARod the "CHEATER" and they better not vote him into the HOF. Over 1/2 of this cheater's HR should be nullified.
you cant live your life hating on someone you dont know
Get well soon
7:36 slobbery mess lol
Why the frig would you pitch to A-Rod 3 times to give up 3 homeruns? 🤦
Thst target field home run is special
👍🏼
If Alex didn't take steroid he would have been too 5 players of all time 3000 hits 2000 runs 2000 RBIs 600 doubles .295 career batting average 1 world series ring multiple MVPs 700 homeruns too bad
And the Yankees administration treated him poorly at the last year of his contract
A roid !
Hater
first comment and view
Congratulations, pervert. Nobody cares.
"He has all nine Yankee RBIs and the Yankees lead 10-1" ummmm.....
They cannot vote Ortiz in n keep Arod out
I bet it kills him not to have 700 hr
And somehow one of the best players of all time wont be in the hall of fame. But David Ortiz a steroid using DH is
Gotta love those steroids
A-roid Rodriguez
His best home run as a Yankee was his last... Don't let the door hit you on the way out. And nice try at wanting to do everything Jeter does in your failed attempt to buy the Mets with JLo
Bill Shamrock sounds like someone hasn’t got pussy in a couple years
John Flaherty is such a boring announcer.
Here comes Varitek!!!!!!! Cheater
Varitek? Clean player, good player and great leader... Once fed A-Rod a leather glove for dinner...
I’d feel real tough fighting and leaving that big ass mask on too
Manny more better Alex
At taking roids
gotta love steroids
