Funny thing is, Tommy wasn't even messing around.. He was actually pissed off about this.
Like he always said when he was the manager of the Dodgers, he always bled Dodger Blue. 😆
I was bus driver for The dodgers in the 80's.When they flew into Houston to play the Astros (were national league team then) i'd meet them at the airport and take the team to the hotel and games . I knew Mr Lasorta personally and he had a temper if you got on his bad side...and then of course he had an understanding and likably way about him...as long as you didnt piss him off.
Tommy Parker Thanks for the insight of your story BUT clearly Lasorta was having fun at the Phanatic's expense, as Tommy fed into his own character " feisty" to matchup with the Phillie Phanatic character causing chaos to entertain the fans ! Love the Phanatic - take care Tom.
Nathaniel Measley Dave also had his hand in and was asked to be a consultant of launching The Philadelphia Flyers new mascot " Gritty" I say the roll out of that new character has been successful !
Knowing that makes it funnier
It happened. The Phillie fanatic made an opposing manager legitimately snap into a murderous rage.
too bad in the near 30 years since no one has again...
Jude Law that only means he's 30 years overdue for another ass-kicking
Don't forget that Lasorda is from the Philadelphia suburb of Norristown! This may have been rehearsed.
@@OldsVistaCruiser Rehearsed. Have you forgotten about the game between the LA Dodgers and the Montreal Expos where Lasorda had Montreal mascot Yuppie ejected from the game?
this was absolutely not rehearsed... I work with the guy - dave raymond - who was the original phanatic.. it's one of his best stories
"That's the quickest Tommy's moved all year" OOOHHHHHHHH
Then names the date so no one shall forget this important moment in history lol
GreaseBag WTF, WHY WOULD YOU REPLY TO A HIGHLY LIKED UNREPLIED COMMENT THAT WAS POSTED 3 YEARS AGO??!!!!
Lock_Driver golf club swing, pause for laughter. 😂
😊😂
Quite the gut he was packing.
Fun fact: There are 3 mascots in the MLB hall of fame. Tommy Lasorda hit all 3.
jaime delgado what a buzzkill
That's amazing
@@killerpanda107 the "Grouch" of MLB 😄😉
did you get that form SB nation vid on him and youppi
Lol
1:00
That tongue flick was the LAST STRAW!
+Razzy1312 Hahahahaha I missed that!
Hahaahahhaaahhaahhah
mr. !startarena WTF, WHY WOULD YOU REPLY TO A COMMENT THAT WAS LAST REPLIED 3 YEARS AGO???!!!!
TheVideomaker2341 why do you type like a complete moron?
@@TheVideomaker2341 So the rest of us can enjoy it. And maybe the dude is still alive and watching youtube videos.
As a philly sports fan, this is one of the greatest moments in baseball
FR❗️
Here after the news of his passing. Tommy was the best. May he rest in peace.
AMEN 🙏
Yep!
What a Man he is!
He loves baseball game so much.
Yep. Rest in pieces.
If this happened today, Lasorda would have been suspended and several people in the Phillies organization would have been fired for insensitive displays.
BWAHAHAHA! So true.
Oh, without a doubt. The announcers then were laughing, when today it would be all butthurt commentating about how unprofessional that was.
jior6 so true, I can just hear it, Joe Buck "The Phillies and Dodgers should be ashamed of themselves"
snappy452 You know it's sad but true (cue the heavy riff).
snappy452 dude the phanatic shot hot dogs at some pig thing last year moron
Rest in peace, Tommy
Pure comedy. Back in the day of when people could do stuff without fines
dave raymond was the phanatic then. he speaks now and tells all of his stories like this one. so good www.raymondfun.com
I bet the Philly guy didn't really see it as a threat either. Just good old respect for fooling around.
That stomach walk was funny as hell lol
To be fair the Braves mascot Blooper just tricked Machado to give him $300,000,000.
True
If anyone did something like today, the liberals would be screaming about how outraged and offended they are for weeks on end.
I just realized Weird Al's song "I'm Fat" is playing over the PA system .... hahahaha
Rejean LeBlanc lol you’re right! Good catch. Lmao
Yeah that changed the whole thing hahahahahhaahhahahaa
🎶YOU KNOW I'M FAT🎶
HAHAHA! That's great
Reg LeBlanc Damn, something else I missed until I replayed the video! Man, the Phanatic was just insulting Lasorda from all angles!
You know you've done your job when the manager legit attacks you.
Rest in Peace Tommy
Baseball was a lot of fun in the 80's.
I think of baseball from the mid 70's to 80's as when the sport was at it's zenith. The baby boomers were in their prime, it was a good time.
Josey Wales Better than the 90's when they say 70% of the players were on steroids.
hazelwood55 baby boomers lol
IT WAS, wasn't it?!! Much better than today.
Agree. Times were simpler then. Less stress. Baseball and collecting cards were the thing in the 80s and 90s
Lasorda was genuinely pissed. You can find interviews from the time online
That's what made it so funny. He would get so angry. Sports has always been a serious business, but they used to have a lot more fun. Not just baseball, but all the major sports. They take things too seriously now.
... This is a collector's item, if for nothing else than to see Tommy Lasorda run faster than he ever has in his life.
J.T. Dutch No shit. The paramedics were all nervous as hell.
Sad Day In Baseball ⚾
R.I.P. Tommy Lasorda
I remember seeing Tommy around town (in Norristown) in the 1970's. He could be quite a character during baseball games and post-game interviews. But he was always polite and very friendly if you ran into him at a restaurant, for instance. Nice man. He'll be missed.
I love how Lasorda walk off like some kind of tough guy, after hitting a fluffy green mascot with a dummy of himself. The Phanatic wins on so many levels.
Being 27 game out I think Tommy and the dodgers got this one lol
@EveryDay no he's talking about tommy chasing a muppet and the phanatic trolling him hard. Not the teams records. It's still a win for the phanatic!
No, it doesn’t win shit. It’s just another ugly Philadelphia sports mascots designed by a schizophrenic.
This comment made it even more funny.
I mean he beat up another human being, since it is a mascot sir
Rest-In-Piece Lasorda, I’m Sure He Has A Wonderful Dodgers Life.
(1927-2021)
You don’t see entertainment like that at the park anymore.😂😂😂
Rest easy Tommy. Thank you for what you have done for baseball
Gus! How's the Polka selling these days?
@@justinchambers7574 good just dropped the new single “Polka Polka”
@@guspolinskipolkakingofthem615 Whatever happened to "Polka Polka Polka"?
@@dalethelander3781 had to take a woman to get her son that she left at home. Sorry for the delay.
@@guspolinskipolkakingofthem615 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lasorda... What a huge personality... From a kc royals fan... Kind Regards from México
The good old days with Tommy Lasorda.. Both Tommy Lasorda and Vin Scully living legends.. Baseball would not be the same without them!!
And Don Drysdale who was doing that broadcasting.
I love those old highlights from the 80's
That’s why I ❤️ Mr Lasorda NO ONE gets away with disrespecting his BROTHERS IN BLUE 😂 ‘88 was truly a magical yr
that with the wierd al yankovic 'im fat' song in the background perfect.
Excellent catch. Wow, no wonder why Tommy was truly pissed that day. There were interviews about how he was actually mad.
Rest in Peace, Tommy. I will always remember you for this one.
I was at this game. Still remember this.
I'm a Phillies fan, but this was hilarious.
Growing up in Philadelphia I always liked Lasorda because he came from Norristown,right outside the city. Even though he managed the hated Dodgers I always secretly rooted for him.
Thought for a second he was gonna hop on the ATV and run the mascot over. Now THAT would've been hilarious.
No, it would have been scary.
why would you say that?!
Preston Kushner
Because global warming.
bluelion00 MC-PvP It's all Obama and Hillary's fault...
I read this comment in Billie Mays voice haha it's totally works too
The most entertaining I’ve seen watching baseball in the last 20 years.
We need another Lasorda in MLB.
RYNO LASCAVIO Yes! I am a Los Angeles Dodgers fan and I cannot agree more. If the Dodgers (or any team for that matter, but we'll use the Dodgers for an example) gets another Lasorda, then the Phillie Phanatic will get his ass kicked every time the Phillies go up against the Dodgers. He asks for it every game!
Maddon is always getting thrown out lmao
@ASS HOLE to be clear, Tommy Lasorda, even in 1988, was a grumpy old man, and even today he hates ALL MASCOTS. His belief is that mascots distract the crowd from the game itself. Proof of this is when in 1988 he had Montreal Expos mascot Yupie ejected from the game.
Now I think games need mascots, because after a while baseball, football, basketball, etc can get boring without someone in a furry suit acting like a complete moron for our own amusement.
Even though he hates all mascots, Lasorda holds a special grudge against the Phillie Phanatic, because he is the biggest idiot of them all in Lasorda's veteran eyes. The Phanatic's antics are without a doubt eccentric even for a sports team mascot, and Lasorda knew then that what he did to the Phanatic on the field would make for great laughs. But he wasn't laughing; he wanted to rip the Phanatic to shreds.
And it's not like it ended there. Several years ago the Phillie Phanatic finally got it's well-deserved revenge against Ol' Tommy at a Dodgers vs. Phillies game and it knew very well Lasorda couldn't do anything to it because a) he retired from coaching the Dodgers (so sad) and b) was too damn old and withered to beat the Phanatic over the head with his cane
If we had another Lasorda in baseball, today's society would protest to ban him forever
There is. He's called Joe Maddon.
Once a Dodger, always a Dodger. May you rest in Peace.
I loved the Dodgers during the late 70s and enjoyed tommy. Great manager.
RIP Don Drysdale :(
Lasorda didn't look like he was playing. The mascots head almost came off.
He wasn't. he was dead serious lol that's why the incident is notorious
I was watching this game live when it happened and this was no doubt the best part of the game. Lasorda was legitimately pissed (not acting) but everyone else was either laughing or cheering for Lasorda. No fines or hurt feelings. Everyone in attendance got their money's worth for sure! I showed my son this and the first thing he said was "This is great! Did the coach get fired?" because that's the world he's grown up in.
Rest in Peace, you legend.
Rest In Peace 🪦 😔
Hope the mascot got a raise that day😅
Best mascot ever
The San Diego Chicken has entered the chat
NO DOUBT THE PHILLIE PHANATIC IS EASILY THE BEST MASCOT “EVER”!!!
0:07 when the Phanatic crouched and backed up....🤣 then 0:18 when he mocks Lasorda....then he took off at 0:39 with his stomach in the air pure gold. funniest mascot by far.😂 had me laughing so hard!
The way Tommy was slowly walking towards him was killing me 😂
The funny thing is Tommy was from Norristown, just a few miles outside Philly.
The mascots's tongue part was hilarious..🤣😀🤣
I lost it at the tongue flick
who’s here after hearing about his death? 😭😭😭😭😭
Lasorda was one of the all-time characters in baseball like Casey Stengel and Yogi Berra. I don't know if we'll ever have anyone like them ever again.
AQUELLOS TIEMPOS..TOM LASORDA UN PERSONAJE. .TREMENDO MANAGER..DIOS LO TENGA EN LA GLORIA.
Lasorda never ran faster, except maybe to a Lasagna dinner.
+Don R. Mueller, Ph.D. is this suppose to be funny?
+agt462 Only if your head isn't full of lasagna. What's your excuse?
Everyone used to say he would run to the buffets. Actual team members
Lol
Tommy Lasagna
I love tommy. We need more people like him in the world
Despite his upbringing in Norristown, PA (suburb of Philadelphia), you can never have enough of Tommy Lasorda vs. the Phillie Phanatic.
That was awesome, to of baseball greats. A really great moment in baseball history. Always having fun, glad it happened and caught on camera. Great video
Rest in peace Lasorda
That's a pretty good picture, for 1988!
One of a kind! NEVER be another like him!!!
This video is going to blow up today.
When Tommy ran after the mascot 😂😂
MLB outta put this in their brawls playlist
Lasorda is a legend.
Only Tommy can do this, love him even though I'm not a Dodger fan.
Not a Phillies fan, but even I have to laugh at this. This is some funny shit ...
You don't need to be a Phillies fan to think this is funny. Just a sense of humor.
Ωmega Ruhe WTF, WHY WOULD YOU REPLY TO AN UNREPLIED COMMENT THAT WAS POSTED 4 YEARS AGO??!!!!
@@TheVideomaker2341 why would you reply to a reply to an unreplied comment from four years ago
@@kingofallwhites1791 reply to a reply of a reply, etc. This is fun
The Phillie Phanatic entertains everyone...That's why he's in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Rest In Peace Tommy, you truly were legendary
“You gotta do something when you’re 20 games out”...lol
Awwww, man I miss this already....Good Luck everyone....another one to just think of memories...KK I have to man up now...
That never gets old. Laughing very hard
This is actually really funny and fun baseball
Job description: Ride atv in green fuzzy costume hahaha
And be a giant asshole
Philly baby!
Jup420BlazeIt somebody likes the dodgers
I remember seeing him close by when visiting Dodgers stadium 1984.once was comming out of locker room with fernando Valenzuela giving autographs.. Great Manager!
The announcer makes sure to say the date for us watching in the future.
1988: Giggles
2019: OMG someone arrest that lunatic, banned from MLB for life

Ikr...
Snowflake nation
Exactly
It was in the 1980s that we started letting the courts (read lawyers and judges, if you like) take over, telling us more and about people's so called rights. Such as no one has the right to upset anyone else.
Well, we sat by while they did it, so I suppose we got what we deserved.
Ahhhhh, the good ole days!
Just found out today that this legend passed away. Rest well ole man. You deserve it
Always loved this clip. Tommy was a character. I remember going to a Dodger Giants in SF and Tommy was saying the funniest things about the Giants. Truly Baseball's Ambassador. Tommy we will miss you
haha who would take that so seriously? lasorda has gotta take a chill pill
Ikr, about the only opposing team manager who couldn't take a joke
The Dodgers save money by having their Manager double as their Mascot
The Dodgers beat the As in the World Series this season. Seems LaSorda might have been a good hire for both roles.
The Phillies wished they ever find a lasorda, so does alot of teams. Phillies like anything to do with Philadelphia is trash always has been always will be
@@jcearnhardt393 Remember in the 90s when the Phillies players all had Mullett haircuts to demonstrate solidarity?
@@jcearnhardt393 you must be a cubs fan since you know all about trash teams 😆
Tommy Lasorda also had Montreal Expos mascot Youpii thrown out of a game. The guy just hates funny furry mascots.
Because he didn't want to be outstaged as the funniest looking mascot 😂
What a wonderful moment. I was 8 y/o then. However, a most memorable year for the Dodgers. Things just seemed simple back then: get on base, move the runner over, sacrafy plays and have fun in the club house.
I was also 8 then. That was my first year watching baseball. And the Dodgers won the world series. Of course they didn't repeat for another 32 years
"Never mess with me or my son ever again."
The good old days of baseball.
i was this years old when i realized Tommy was from Norristown, PA. it all makes sense now...... Tommy, you will be missed.....
From the 1988 Dodger telecast from KTTV Ch. 11, which broadcast Dodger games from 1958 until 1992. ⚾ 😀
There's no one like Tommy. Miss him!
LOL Tommy was a bit mad that he was being called fat.
Whether or not Tommy Lasorda was angry or playing along, he helped provide some real laughs. No one would blame him for being angry if he was. I'm hoping Mr. Lasorda could have looked back at that footage and laugh either way.
É triste ver que no Brasil não tem essas brincadeiras..
what you don't see in the video is the phanatic stealing Lasorda's Slim Fast just before the footage
Lasorda, Sparky, Earle Weaver, Billy Martin, etc. You don’t have managers like that anymore...
Tony Larussa was the last great manager
This should be one of the greatest moments in baseball history. Tony was pissed as f...
nobody can beat the class of Tommy don't mess the Tommy he might get angry and get even lol
I remember watching this when I was 8. I was like kick ass Tommy. Haha
I love the fact that he doesnt crack a smile the whole time.....😂
DANTE BELGIAN MALINOIS dudes legit pissed .
The fact that u believe that makes it even funnier......😂 Yea he didn't like the Mascot but if u believe he was REALLY gonna hurt the mascot then I have a bridge I will sell u. Really cheap.... close to Manhattan. 🙄
One of One was that Man Tommy Lasorda!
Never be another 🙏
That was a real hustle play. Tommy at his finest!
Today’s Philly Phanatic is much nicer than this classic Phanatic!😂
and much less fun
1:02 lmao. I never knew that thing had a tongue it sticks out.
This cracks me up every single time.
Lasorda is a local guy too, from Norristown Pa
