Catchers are one-of-a-kind 😂 

It’s the pitchers strike out

​@@capitaljay1 True but the catcher called the pitch and is considered the General on the field... Kind of like a 'quarterback' so they work together but the pitcher usually gets the accolades from fans.

@@dawnbaker8023Nah. The pitcher has always been the qb. After all, they’re the ones who shake off the pitch. And now they straight up call it themselves

@@dawnbaker8023the catcher is like the center in football.

How would the pitcher be the QB if they only last 4 innings and get swapped​@@kman9884

The pitcher bluffed the batter and ump at the same time!

@@conrad463well it was a strike anyway

Punched him out real quick LOL

Tim Hudson

What about it lol.

It’s in the box right ump?😂

Travis D'arnaud. Very comedic guy 😂

Ump just looked at him like… your joking right? 😂

@@2by4Tylor i loved when he got HBP by a position player and fell

Fr ! 😂

One of those once in a lifetime moments that never ends up on camera ended up on camera. 😂

@@CreamyPesto505exactly 😂 you try and tell that story and no one believe you

"pa doonk" 😂

Shouldn't the first guy that caught the ball be walked ?

@@tjvaneyk7010You mean take first on a hit by pitch? It’s not a hit by pitch if you make no effort to get out of the way.

Top tier framing work

What does it mean to frame…. I don’t watch baseball 😭

A real catcher would frame that out of habit. Just like signaling on the road

@@flvckoVLONE framing is bringing the glove up to the strike zone really fast after you catch it in your glove to try to trick the ump into thinking it was a strike instead of a ball.

@@iwillnotcomply6001crazy. Its like hes a real catcher reacting how you described. Do you feel like you add to anything and actually make a difference?😂

That's my Phillies JT

Did this fractured 3 fingers but still got on base and hit for two more innings

@@SorryImLate-fv1xfjesus

@@Nardo2G that did not happen. he was fine.

@@chriskerr8736 He was talking about himself

Last one should be a banned play

@@davehendrickson9186 Nope, it should stay fair game, the batter has to pay attention to the game being played.

@@davehendrickson9186 I think it is now…I read the other day that they’ve outlawed intentional walks

@@i_am_kjr no, they did not ban intentional walks, they just changed the process

Roll tide

love how players can still have a laugh and a joke on field, you would not think it is a multi billion dollar kids game

Yess ty for writing it! Lol I was about too

2ᴺᴰ last one is probably my favorite

Muscle memory goes hard. Also they would take the walk out rather than let him hit if that's their plan. Keep them guessing until it matters.

@@vang-toulee8351lol really dude

It’s a pitchout call

@@ethankr9596 you would not make a pitch out called that obvious… That just tells the bass runner you’re gonna be doing a pitch out so hold off on stealing. Did you even remotely think before you tried speaking or do you just blab the first incorrect thing that comes to your mind.

Tony peña 🔥🔥👏 our Dominican great

I didn't even know that was him and I heard the name many times 🤯🤯🤯🤯

So good it should be illegal

What happened?

@@hairyneil it probably happened on and/or approaching a “full count” (3 balls, 2 strikes)…the catcher faked a signal to the pitcher to throw a “ball” (probably “ball 4”) and to intentionally walk the batter…the batter saw it and relaxed assuming that it meant that he shouldn’t swing at the pitch…but, instead of throwing a “ball” as the signal suggested, the pitcher threw the ball right over the plate…strike 3…tricked em…struck him out standing still and straight up

Yes sir👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

たまーに古田選手も本能でワンバンでもやってましたね😅

Forgot about that. Great point.

Haha I just commented the same thing but couldn't remember who the catcher was!

Nah man. Thats how you get your entire lineup hit by a pitch. It's 100% bad sportsmanship.

I'm curious as to what the situation was that would make the premise of intentionally walking someone with 2 strikes already a believable thing that could fool the hitter. Like why would you intentionally walk someone with 2 strikes? Even if they double stole to load up 2nd and 3rd, if you had 2 outs and 2 strikes you should just go for the strikeout instead of loading the bases so that there's a force out at each base.

@@Jkev24 I think that’s the exact reason it worked. The batter was probably so caught off guard by it that it worked

And waiting for the call like it was legit is great comedy.
