He seemed like he took it like a man. Everyone learns lessons differently. Kids a beast quit hating. Bet you’ll hear this kids name again. You act like the parents taught him this stuff, it’s glorified all over the internet and tv everyday. Let the kid live
So dumb. The bat flip and euro step is fine. The meditation on base is too extra. I'd have a word with him for that. But they're kids. Let them have fun ffs. This isn't the 80s anymore.
yeah, i dont care how good of a game he was having, i would have taken him out of the game and made him sit the next game! This is why MLB players should not act like prima donnas. Kids are watching!
Right? Our football coach caught one dude show gloating while we were up and made him run the field after the game their and all of us in practice next week. Save it for the pros where you get fined dude.
Flipping the bat, meditating on 3rd base, skipping around the bases? You probably think a bj isn't "technically cheating" too? Lol fk people@dohc16vturbo4g63
As a high school football coach myself, I gotta say, hey Coach, you knew this kid was a timebomb. When you look the other way at shitty behavior, it will come back to bite you in the ass. This kid showed that he’s willing to put himself above the team. I’ve coached enough kids like that to know that for every big play they give you they’ll do 3 to 5 things that screw you into a corner. This behavior may also cost his future. Why would the minors or MLB want this kid when he’s a head case? And he will probably struggle in college by constantly pissing off his coaches. And at that level they don’t give two shits. They will bench him.
There's plenty of blame for his behavior. Coach, parents and even his teammates could have helped keep him grounded. I was heavily involved in sports when I was young and not one of my coaches would have put up with this. It would have been dealt with immediately and decisively. Hopefully he'll learn and understand. I'm really surprised the umps didn't at least give his coach a warning. But unfortunately we now live at a time when consequences don't seem at exist as much as they used to.
@@Daniel-nr6iw yes you can point a finger at the parents. But ultimately the coach has an obligation to all the other kids on the team and not just one player. That kind of kid is a cancer. You never jeopardize your team by letting a bad actor get his way. It poisons your team. I don’t agree with holding his teammates as accountable as parents and coaches though. They’re kids. They’re still trying to understand the world and how power dynamics work. So if you want your team to police their teammates then model the behavior for them so they can learn.
Despite number 99‘s abhorrent actions. All of the GOAT’s throughout history have not flaunted their talents in front of their competition like that… Not even at the highest level.
Eject him for what specific reason though? Why does meditating deserve to get you thrown out or warned when if anything it’s an advantage for the other team?
@@bbcpfghsit's bad sportsmanship. you don't rub it in your opponents' face when you win. "you're losing so hard we don't even have to play the game to win!" is what it says.
@@Shalyn-ln9tu true, but the line is drawn at whether the conduct was directed "towards" the opponent. Bat flipping, this meditation, euro stepping, etc. by rule are not considered "unsportsmanlike" anymore. How opponents perceive it is a separate issue. As an umpire, I can't throw this kid out unless his action was directed at the opposing team or player(s).
My coach made us SPRINT around the bases if we hit a home run. No showboating just get back as quick as possible to not let the pitcher have any time to recover before the next batter
@@kevinphillips150 lol really. So the boy was having a good game against some girls. So good he hurt 3 of them. People like you are lost. Just stfu and go away.
That is 100% the coach's fault. I grew up in a baseball family and if he pulled any of that stuff while my dad was coaching he would get torn a new one.
I have a female friend who works as an official in a different sport with kids around this age. Talking with her she mentioned that the worst thing about doing this is corralling the parents behavior who have on occasion gotten so out of line that she's had to have the parent removed. This kid is out of line. He can still celebrate his good day without the shenanigans and perhaps if he wasn't intent on being such a jerk he could have collected himself before blowing the day with his behavior on the mound. Kudos to Louisiana for winning the game and displaying good sportsmanship.
Reminds me of a funny old beer commercial. Guys are playing in a softball league when someone hits a home run. Everyone celebrates like crazy, doing the “Gatorade” shower on people, etc. Other team in the dugout looks, and say “it’s the first inning.”
@@emmettzusi4676You’re clearly twelve. Nobody is crying. I bet you if you were against him in that game you would be crying your way to the dugout because he was being a little meanie. He got humbled for being a dick. Sorry that you realize being humble is a good thing.
No, he completely lost it for them. Him walking and hitting that many batters at the position where you control the flow of the game on a 4 run lead is on him. Don’t bring the team into that
Ur wrong. Ur not from Oklahoma nor even watched highlights let alone this game itself. Shut up. The team is good and all had done amazing up until he started pitching. Stfu. U make no sense when he gave up multiple runs in the last inning. Shut up. Ur wrong
@@Jayo26I’m all for bat flips and hand signals while on base like the Braves and most teams do. But meditating on base is so stupid. Like it’s not even an unwritten rule thing, it’s just annoying to see especially when you blow the game later on
THAT is why you teach little kids' sportsmanship and humility above all else. Too many parents/coaches just want to live vicariously thru these children, instead of being an actual mentor and authority figure.
@@dohc16vturbo4g63At least that looks cool. This kid is doing a meditation pose for a triple. I think celebrating after you actually get the run is fine, but all this other stuff is just extra
@@kevinphillips150 no he's being a cocky douche with no sportsmanship. You can have fun without slowing the game down and being a douche to the other team.
This kid's coaches and parents are evil. I can't blame him for this entirely. He's being put on TV to play master-level baseball as a child. That is stressful enough, let alone the amount of pressure his coach and parents put on him, forcing him to become an awful person. He needs a break and some new friends.
Dude meditating on third is crazy. I’m sure this isn’t his first time doing stuff like that either so how did the coach never step in or even his parents? How can you watch your kid act like a fool and just be okay with it?
I dunno...it seems coach did in fact punish him, by leaving him in to pitch WAY longer than he should have. In a championship game, I would have pulled him after walking the first 3 batters. You can almost hear the thoughts of the coach in the dugout..."let's see you eurostep your way out of this, punk!"
Coming from someone who hates showboaters, I do not feel bad for the kid. He needed to be put in check. I'm extremely impressed with the other team hugging it out after.
He blew the game the moment he pulled all that showoff crap. He sat on the base and MEDITATED??? He should have been benched immediately and be forced to apologize to Louisiana, no matter how the game ended.
For real. Almost feels like he knew the snowflake kid would need some cope that he wasn't the one who lost the game. Can practically guarantee he thinks that the kid who threw 1 ball is the loser.
I played Louisiana little league 20 years ago. Coaches back then would pull you out sooooo fast for behaving like this. Both baseball and football. Sportsmanship back then was more important than the win.
@@Chadius_Thundercockfr lol this video is absolutely ridiculous to me. Are 12 year olds not allowed to celebrate hitting a home run on national tv like what why are people so tight about this 😂
I’ll bet his dad was doing the exact same crap in the stands!! I coached my son’s team up to middle school and if some kid did this kind of crap one time in a game he’d be sitting!! I don’t care how good you think you are…….this is poor sportsmanship!
@@bernabe4417actually just the opposite, and if I’d done something like this back in 1970!!! my father would’ve walked out on the field and drug my ass to the car and whipped my backside….buy again you knew enough never to do anything this selfish!
@@bernabe4417you were not taught right then. He literally was making fun of everyone on the team and then got karma. You would probably do the same thing this kid did
Except his heroes are grown ass adults that can take the salt when it's given, and even then you might thrown at the next at bat for it. These are kids. Him acting like this is a direct result of parents sucking dick at teaching him life lessons like not being a douche bag in something just because you're good at it lol.
Big difference, they are getting paid millions and they earned the right to do bat flips. But what MLB player meditates on the bases? Sounds like you are just a snowflake.
Yeah, once they make more money than their coach it’s kinda hard to tell them what to do, but that doesn’t mean we teach our 12 year olds to act that way.
Ain’t nobody meditating on the third base in the pros. But also they’re pros. They’re paid professionals. They’ve worked their whole life to become the top 1% of their profession. They can bat flip and dance and talk shit if they want too lol. A little leaguer has no business doing that. Hasn’t earned anything yet.
I'm sorry! But I'm glade that the kid got checked. You play baseball ( for the love of the game ) you do not disrespect the game pro, little league or not. I do hope he learns from this, and grows as a young man. Hope to see him in the big's one day!!!
I don't know where you came from , but that is the definition of disrespect. Baseball is a game of honor and respect. That is how we show the younger generation the love of the game. When you disrespect the game, your disrespecting the history of the game. People like my self the grow up loving baseball we do not like that at all!!! @@Backitch23
You are wrong! Baseball is like every other game! It's a game where you are post to win! To quote Dale Earnhardt " Second place is only the first loser"@@Backitch23
"Karma" has been considered to be an "Invisible Path" to some people. I don't know if that counts as "Unwritten" or not, but either way "Karma" definitely F CKED THAT 12 YEAR OLD!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@drew7155yeah. It’s awesome the kid can hit a homer, I’ve been playing since I was 4 and still can’t hit one, but that was douchey. Just run around and wave or something
Agreed. I would never allow my son to act that way…ever. I’d pull him straight outta the game with no worries at about the championship or anything. Second. Only Larry Bird can talk smack and back it up. Just sayin
Yeah good luck with that bub.... We live in a society where everyone thinks they know how to raise a child better than their parents. Teachers go out of their way to spew their bullshit while they have your kid in school and parents in sports think they've watched enough of whatever sport you are playing to become a pro. Unless you want to home school your child and not let him have any friends to influence him.... This might happen. Children need to be shown the right way and learn why it is the right way. Let them fall, let them be humbled. It's what makes proper adults and not these entitled idiots we have today
Let's see him do that using a wood bat. Metal Bats do kids a disfavour, bc they amplify the Exit velocity and so kids think they're a good Hitter, but when they step up to Babe Ruth Or American Legion ball and they have to Start using wood bats it's totally different
I hope that young Mr. Kent has learned a bit about being boastful. These boys are all talented, but they have to learn self-control, humility, and sportsmanship above all!
Something my dad taught me in middle school when he was my coach, never put your best hitter to close the game. Me and my buddy Trent would go back and forth at the plate and whoever did better would finish the game at shortstop
