Rest in Peace Ray.
Your scream at 3:22 will forever live on in Athletics history.
Came here for the same reason. RIP Ray!! You'll be so missed!!
Rest in Peace, Ray Fosse.
One of Ray Fosse’s greatest moments on the radio call. Absloutly electric
Legendary. RIP Ray
When life gets my down, I come back to this video.
An Oakland Athletics fan for 52 years. My heart is broken and I can't stop watching these highlights.
Giants fan hear but also a A’s fan (I’m from the bay) definitely is disappointing watching how the Oakland A’s franchise is going to end
@@DimdzxoI appreciate that coming from a Giants fan. It’s sad management was too cheap to keep better players around. Would have had a great chance at another bay bridge series.
What we once had😢 being a lifelong A’s fan. My heart is shattered. Watching these clips make me tear up
RIP Ray Fosse. The voice of the A's for me since 1986. Cancer sucks, but I'll always have the Fosse Scream.
When I watch this I feel tears welling up in my eyes. This was absolutely the best game I’d ever experienced.
Who else came to relive this classic Ray Fosse moment after his passing? RIP to the legend 😢
Rest in peace Ray. Thanks for all the memories
Rest in Peace Ray Fosse. The final call from him and Glenn are legendary
Came here to hear you scream! RIP Fosse!!!!
Why can’t I stop watching this 7 years later?
Because awesome never dies.
@@AdamAmesOaklandAthletics WE WILL BE BACK THERE SOON!
Same here! One of my favorite A’s teams of all time 😢
Because you love your Oakland A's.
Hearing Ray Fosse screaming with joy 🥹 we miss you Ray! Now our beloved A’s are moving 😔💔
Was at this game with my little brother, and it'll probably be my favorite in-person sports memory for the rest of my life. The crowd had been subdued for most of the game and soon as Reddick got the leadoff single the whole Coliseum was absolutely buzzing
Thanks for sharing your story! Hopefully the A's can put together a great run this postseason and bring home a trophy to Oakland.
That place (when full) is the loudest place on earth
With everything this franchise & fanbase is dealing with (November, 2023), this will always be a beautiful moment in Oakland A's history.
one of the greatest games i have seen next to clinching the al west game 162 in 2012
It must have been amazing to be there. Watching on TV is great, but it does not do the moment justice.
I agree. as nice as it would have been to end their season, I imagine it was somewhat nice to see them get swept by the Giants.

That 2nd half of the 2012 season was why baseball is great.
Same year 😂😂😂
Korac is as good as it gets!
This season was so special and I feel blessed to have been apart of it, doesn’t even matter that we didn’t win it all but we were a team of destiny
I get tear up every time 💚💛
I was a Sophomore in high school during this season and I remember that just before the All-Star break we got hot, and kept rolling throughout the season, a Yankee sweep at home included, we snatched the division from the Rangers on G162 and were a few plays away from making a run at a World Series. I’ll never forget the magic during that season, from the walkoffs, to the sweeps, to the roaring Coliseum. Green and Gold till I’m Dead and Cold.
This was such a memorable season, and this was the most memorable game. The A's were below .500 and 13 games behind first place on June 30th. They took off after that. A month left in the season, the A's were on a roll. I looked at the schedule, last series of the season is against the Texas Rangers. The Rangers, class of the division, first place and just coming off of two WS appearances. I thought to myself: "that could be and epic series". The A's continue to climb in the standings. With 9 days left in the season, the A's are 5 games back. When the Rangers finally arrived for the final series, the A's had climbed to 2 games back of the Rangers.
I went to the first game, A's win: playoff spot clinched and one game back of the Rangers. I went to the second game, brought a ton of people, tailgated. The stadium was rocking, you can tell the momentum is in the A's favor. A's win again, tied for the division lead. Winner takes all for the final game of the season. I went to game 3. Hamilton literally drops the ball in center field which was a major blunder, allowing the A's to rally. Balfour comes out to shut down the Rangers season. Wow. Incredible.
A's face the Tigers in the division series. Lose the first two in Detroit. Come home. Brett Anderson pitches a gem and coco makes an amazing play in CF robbing a HR. A's win. I went to game 4. We know our backs are against the wall. But the stadium was loud anyway. For most of the game the A's couldn't put anything together. It wasn't until the 9th inning came. Buzzed, I turn to my friend and say sarcastically "we got this". Then this above rally happened. Just. Wow. What a season. Best week of baseball I ever experienced in person.
That is an amazing story. Thank you for sharing. There is nothing quite like a packed and loud Coliseum during a comeback, let alone one so memorable. The fact that you witnessed it live is fantastic.
Still angers me to this day we started this series on the road when we were the higher seed. Started the series down 0-2
@@mattguz55 Yeah, well we had the schedule in our favor the following year and didn't put them away in Game 4 when we had it. Up 3-0 and couldn't hold it. Seems like every year, our weaknesses get exploited in October.
@@manuginobilisbaldspot424 also true. Can only look back and say what if. Bummer.
3:22 Ray Fosse may have had a stroke.
I was 12, and at this game. The day I fell in love with baseball
Best commentary by our Ray Fosse.
i was in the LFB sec. 134 !!! CRAZY!! i was screaming, yelling ,slapping high 5's all the way out to our car!! i don't remember how we got home, when i pulled up to the drive way i looked at my wife and said ''what just happened?..''
Miss you Ray. Happy late birthday big man
3:25 I’ll never forget that scream/shriek that was hilarious to hear lmao
same shriek

🤭🤭🤭
@@blindedby2monkeys tell me why I knew it was going to be that video before clicking on it lol
Thanks for the great calls Mr. Fosse! You will be missed! Go A’s!!
I still come back to this video : the unexpected 2012 team, coco walk off with classic Ken and Ray (RIP) on the call, BoMel just acting like nbd, Bernie leannnnn. Let's Go Oakland! CGTCO!
I was there!!!!!! R.I.P. Mr. Fosse
I was at game 3 right before that when Coco robbed Fielder of the home run. The crowd went nuts and they won 2-0 but this game 4 walk off takes the cake! Wish I was there to see that as well! Imagine if they didn’t have the tarps up! The 2012 A’s season was one of my favorites to follow with them having the 15 walk off wins and the A’s taking the AL west on game 162 against the Rangers. Such a fun team to watch!
I have been living away from the Bay Area since 1994, so I was not able to see any of these games live, which makes me sad when I think about it. Before 2015, the last game I saw at the Coliseum was in 2003 when Maddux and Hudson pitched against each other. That was the Jermaine Dye walkoff in the 12th.
I was at Game 3 too! Got a foul ball that I gave to kid and was on the TBS broadcast. My buddy and I thought I about staying (we're from Fresno) but we decided to head back. I still regret that. 2012 team still my all time favorite (been watching the A's since 1986).
It's 2020, and this is hits as if it was last night.
I was there. RIP Ray Fosse
3:24 me every time the A’s get a run.
Exit velocity might prove me wrong, but seeing Donaldson’s double live - it was the hardest ball I’ve ever seen hit. Missile.
Craziest game ever been too and I got the game winning ball with pure luck! Probably my favorite mlb ball I ever got BECAUSE OF this game!
As a Giants fan, I was rooting for Oakland in that series. I really wanted a 1989 rematch.
Over the years, we've had chances for a 1989 series repeat. Perhaps one season soon in the future.
@@AdamAmesOaklandAthletics we keep choking in playoffs Tho. Chokeland A's
Hold the earthquake, though please!
...but if I'm there when another earthquake hits, I'll tend to the injured with Community Emergency Response Team training
One of the highlights of my sports watching life ......just incredible , god I loved this team
This game was like a religious experience, in the bleachers and in the hallways, grown men were crying and strangers were hugging each other. It was unreal. And now, they're trying to take this team away from us
It sprinkled that night between innings. After that I just fucking knew. The crowd was one that night, it was fucking beautiful, section 232. Lets go Oakland!!
Gives me chills everytime I watch it
The best ever , god damn this shit was fun lol
RIP Ray 😔💔
Thank you Ray Fosse!
This game was by far the best game I'd ever seen in person
My first season watching baseball and following the A's!!!!!
Rip dick Callahan and prayers for ray fosse.. he and ken had a legendary call on an epic walkoff.. chills
Rest In Peace Fosse…
🦈👁
Anyone know where I can find Ken Korach’s call of Seth Smith’s game tying double?!
Lifelong A's fan since I was a kid in the 80's. Lots of great memories at the Coliseum. It's a damn shame they're moving to Vegas. The ownership of the A's is squarely to blame here. They've blamed the city and the fans for the organization's decline over the last several years but it's been a steady degradation of this organization by cheap, billionaire owners that has resulted in where they're at now. But this A's organization isn't what I remember, so Vegas can have em. With great ownership they would have already had their downtown ballpark (privately funded) and still be successful in Oakland. The A's have drawn close to 3 million fans and over 2 million many many times in their history even after Beane and cheap ownership traded established starts years before they hit free agency; it's isn't the fault of the fans that is for sure.
Donaldson, Reddick, Coco, plus many more good players. Oh what a season! I was at this game and let me tell you it was one of the best games I’ve attended! Imagine if the A’s would have kept this team assembled. When they traded Céspesdes, everything else went down hill. But that’s what happens when you have the best farm in the country.
I hope that like this video, up against the wall, that Oakland can pull off a miracle and keep the A’s…
One thing about Coco...he would always be swinging at that first pitch in clutch situations when it was a strike...
i was at game 5 :(
I was there for game 162 that year vs Rangers. I thought that was the most exciting game I had gone to in my life.....this one put it to shame. Also fuck Verlander.
Detroit beat us, swept the Yankees and then the Giants said "1. Thank 2. You 3. Good 4. NIGHT!
Epic
I really liked that yeat
Year
Better than the birth of all my children…
I have no kids so sports is my biggest thing
I remember when the a’s were good
Still are we won out first postseason series in like a decade last year
@@R6_mo Seriously. And in First Place again right now.
