How TYLER MATZEK beat the YIPS and helped the Braves win the World Series 

Anyone who’s watching this now, I got a new video coming out today, please subscribe so you don’t miss it! And if you’re watching this in the future, check out my next video, I promise it’s good

That 7th inning will live forever in my memory. The image of Luke Jackson with a look of shock and devastation, and his reaction after Matzek slammed the door shut on the Dodgers tells that story well what an epic moment.

The reason why the Braves signed him was their Bench Coach Walt Weiss. He was the former manager of the Rockies when Tyler played there. When he spotted Tyler in Independent ball he convinced the general manager to take a flyer on Tyler.

I'm a huge Braves fan and I can say his inning against LA in game 6 of the NLCS will always be my favorite from the 2021 season. That was absolutely unbelievable stuff.

I too, have severe anxiety it cost me a lot in my life as well, I was a very good pitcher as well this hits home I’m so happy to see him making a comeback. No matter how good life can be sometimes, anxiety can really affect it. I lost a lot of respect for the Rockies “who lost patience” with him…. I wish the whole organization could feel the way he felt. Nobody ever knows what you’re going through at least cut him and try and get him help not lay him out like he’s roadkill. Good luck Tyler

Those three strikeouts with nobody out and Bellinger on 3rd and T Turner on 2nd were absolute nails in our coffins. Damn you, Matzek, you legend.

It's so cool that Bard and Matzek worked through all of that together, and that they are both not just back in the league, but both DOMINANT in their craft. A truly great story.

Matzek the living legend forever will be remembered for that inning against the dodgers let's go braves congrats matzek on overcoming your anxiety problems chop on

I love his story. The interview with him and the other relievers after the World Series is good. AJ Minter calling themselves the misfits was nice. Go Bravos!!!

The "image not found" at 3:02 is only there because there's not one single picture I could find of Tyler with the White Sox. That's how quickly baseball moved on from him.

That inning will go down in postseason lore.

relative newbie to baseball from the uk, but watching this brings a tear to my eye. this deserves a hollywood movie.

He went 3 up 3 down with all strikeouts in his final appearance in the last game of the World Series

HOW WE FEELING BRAVES FANS?????

I'm going to go ahead and say it. Matzek was the MVP of the NLCS despite Rosario having the best offensive series of all time. That 7th inning had Braves country in PTSD and he pulled us out of it. Imagine calling Betts out sitting on the slider and throwing one of the fastest bats in the game three straight heaters in the that intense situation. Placement hardly even mattered Matzek won before the ab began.

Wow, this is hard to believe! Who knew he had been through so much. What it takes to play in the big leagues is remarkable. He made his mark in history in my opinion in that game against Dodgers. That was against all odds. I will never forget what you did for my Braves!

This thing really hit 5k views today, thanks for all the new subscribers and thanks to everyone who liked the video! New stuff is on the way next week so be sure to subscribe now if you like what you saw

Since 1969 came to U.S studying & watching Mets won the WS game ( Wow, that's really Baseball), in 2021, Lookin at Mookie's despair and Luke's anguish. That's say it all. (Thank you for the camera men & you).

There’s nothing like an And That’s Baseball video, while eating dinner.

I remember this guy as a Rockie, he was outstanding when he was first called up, and then he was, without exaggeration, one of the worst pitchers I've watched live. It was nuts. I was so glad to see he figured it out, cause he clearly had potential!

He’s awesome! It was looking so bad when they pulled Luke in the 7th. One of the best moments from the entire postseason. He really came through when nobody else could. Legendary. It was the Atlanta choke 100% and he stopped it. Wouldn’t mind seeing some stuff on Minter, or Chavez they’re both really cool

Knowing Tyler's backstory makes that 7th inning hurt for me a lot less (I'm a Dodgers fan). Call me a sucker for feel good stories but good for Tyler. I'm real happy for him. And congrats on his and the Braves WS win.

This is a great video, thanks for highlighting his battle and how he dealt with it. Mental health is so important and he's a great example of a resilient man who never gave up.

I was born in ‘95 so I wasn’t around the last time the braces won the World Series. I was at game six, and even knowing how good he had been up to that point, coming in against the dodgers with two on and no out.. it felt like the best we could hope for was to leave the inning tied, or maybe still up one run if he could have a miracle inning. I’ve never witnessed anything like it before, and I would guess I never will again. In those three batters, it went from feeling like the Atlanta curse had come to strike again to KNOWING that game was over. As soon as you saw betts strike out, and look foolish doing it you could just feel it. We never would have won the NLCS without Rosario, and we may not have won the World Series without Soler. But for my money, no single player was important as Matzek. No single inning has ever been as important for the braves as the bottom of the seventh in game six was. I know it’s fresh so it’s weird to think about it like this but that inning was bigger than Sid’s slide. It was probably bigger than justice’s homerun. It was bigger than Eddie’s homerun in the same game. It was one of the greatest playoff relief appearances ever. I won’t say the greatest because there have been many. But I really hope in the years to come people really understand just how incredible that was. I might be biased since I witnessed it in person, but I think it’s the greatest half inning in braves history.

And now he is immortalized in Braves history as the biggest badass out of the bullpen in 2021

He Was a beast!!

If they don't make Matzek's story into a movie down to the exact detail within the next 5 years, there's gonna be hell to pay.

Way to go Tyler! Awesome story my man!

I’ve known Tyler since he was 8. His story needs to be a movie. Tyler the Deering’s will always be fans buddy.

So glad he beat the YIPS. I’ve had to beat the “trots” several times in my career. Persevere, man, persevere.

great video! a lot of work went into that. interested to see more from this channel.

Explosive crowd cheers like that give me goosebumps every time

His no-look catch in the regular season was awesome, flawless, it was like he practiced it daily.

Proud to say I was at that Game Six against the Dodgers in 2021. Chop On!

AAAAAAHHHHH!!!! Clips from the 2014 Braves!! But in all seriousness great friggen video, man. Let’s get this thing seen by everyone before the Braves close out the Astros in game 6* *hopefully not eating my words

Kudos on your video going "viral" great job thanks for sharing

Awesome job man! Should have a ton more views! Thank you for this

Great video man! Love these types of videos and you definitely deserve more recognition!

He a perfect example of getting into your own head. The fact that he was able to come back from that is incredible. Whats even more amazing is what he was able to do to the Dodgers.

My own experience with anxiety is that it flares up at lightning speed and takes ages to fade away, even when you develop good strategies. If you or someone you love deals with serious anxiety, be patient.

Very Cool Video! Tyler is an awesome story! He could be the MVP of the Braves magical postseason run! He was shutdown every single series and without him the Braves DO NOT win the World Series!

It is amazing a guy out of baseball to a guy who play a very big role in getting the Braves a ring. pitched in 13 of 16 games 3-0 record got a lot of big outs. You know it had to be a good feeling for Snitker knowing that if he can just get to the 7th or 8th inning with the lead (based on a few time Matzek pitched both 7 and 8) that Matzek and Smith were lights out in post season.

Wow youtube with a great recommendation! About to watch the rest of you’re videos definitely got a new sub awesome channel!!

That Game 6 vs the Dodgers will live on in infamy! Tyler “Brass Balls” Matzek!

Tyler "Nutsack" Matzek Great vid

Greatest inning ever pitched

Hoping him quick recovery. The braves announced today he having TJ surgery

All hail Tyler Nutsack 🙏

Ice water in his veins! Go Braves!

Without Matzek, us Braves fans don’t have a ‘Ship! I’ll FOREVER LOVE TYLER MATZEK!!!!!!! The REAL MVP!!!!

He'll never have to buy a beer in Atlanta ever again

great video

I didn't know his story Wow. He saved ATL against the Dodgers...

This video is GOAT status. 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐

Nothing better than a person totally redeeming themselves.

how insane that matzek kinda quickpitched mookie but still hit 98

After all this, they should either make a movie or a Netflix series about him. Hopefully they will include his experience in the California Winter League. I have played in that league, but not with Tyler, however it would be nice if they filmed at Palm Springs Stadium where the league is located

I almost fainted when Luke Jackson came in on the 7th inning he did what i expected smh but thanks to Tyler i could live in peace forever we did it by the way Brian snitker is a genius

cWPA? Jeez I just want to watch some baseball like the good ol days

Really nice of RU-vid to leave this out of my subbox lol

And he's probably the only player to be nearly arrested at his team's parade.

Subbed

Fun fact: Tyler Matzek’s first big league strikeout was Freddie Freeman. Now they’re world champs together

Tyler Nutzack MVP

He should do a podcast with my friend Nick Djorgonoski, he does a podcast related to the Yips.

Braves resigned him thru 2024. Looking forward to seeing what he can do after he recovers from TJ.

Bros, this happens more than publicized when starting a pitching career @ Coors Field.

Braves season is a movie

This man 100% deserves a statue at Truist.

Why does yips need to be censored on the thumbnail?

This man shouldnt have to pay for a drink in Atlanta.

When is Hollywood making this movie?

He’s a better closer than Smith

And then he got arrested by cops at a parade... wait what?

the best thing for pitchers is to not play for Colorado

🥜🥜🥜

Title should read......Rockies coaching staff sucks..........Braves coaches are awesome.

Astros fans hitting that dislike haha 😄

I get so tired of hearing this. There is no stigma about anxiety. It's a simple matter of business. Why would I rob a guy of his opportunity who doesn't suffer from anxiety just to wait on you to get over it. How is that fair to the person without anxiety? There's nothing physically wrong with you. People have to lead companies, soldiers, and nations with real pressure and consequences and I'm supposed to feel bad for you because you put to much pressure on yourself?

great video
