I was at the game for 4 with my family. Everyone in the park was losing it. The cleaning crew had some extra work cleaning the jaws off the stadium floor that night. I would move 3 to #1 and 4 to #2. I do understand the argument for 2 because of the ground covered was insane. I also love that he got to celebrate that Baltimore one with his mentor and fellow wall extraordinaire in Torii Hunter. One of the worst player moves in GM history was telling Hunter they don't have money for OF then they lose the Grienke sweepstakes and then add Hamilton as a "save face" move. Hunter moves on to produce some good years with Detroit and Hamilton might have the worst production vs pay in the history of sports. The X factor was Torii Hunter was the 2nd best player in the entire AL against LHP when they let him go. He was also a clubhouse dream player and kept everyone loose.
@MANCHESTER UNITED F.C I would fuckin love for you to go up to someone like urinatingtree and say this shit because what would happen is that you would get laughed at and then promptly told how fuckin stupid you sound
@MANCHESTER UNITED F.C oh yeah I literally Googled it and guess what hockey is one of the 4 major sports in America plus have you even watched playoff hockey that shit is intense
Been watching MLB since early 90's and I never thought there would be a close comparison to a prime Griffey Jr. Mike Trout is. The things he can do and make look so easy on defense and with his bat is unreal. Just a once in a lifetime baseball player.
1:06 a little weird but it’s pretty cool the dirt mark Trout leaves on the wall after that catch just by running into it. Dirty uniform, what a gamer. Appreciated that fist pump too. Didn’t realize it was the bottom of the 9th with bases loaded to close out the game till after the clip ended. Clutch play by a legend
You need to put in his catch against the White Sox in Chicago. I can't find it but from a dead stop, jumps with both feet and travels about 6 feet sideways and over the wall for the grab.
I am a huge Mike Trout fan. He is an amazing once in a baseball generation kind of talent. Those catches were insane, especially #4. I do however think the best catch in MLB history is either Gary Matthews @ ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MWCvCTR3o3g.html or Kenny Lofton's catch from 0:35 to 0:40 in this video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LGzZs0NWm6I.html What do you all think?
Speaking from experience, (centerfielder), a lot of catches you make out there really are routine, they look way more difficult than they actually are. You spend *A LOT* of time working on all of these catches, in practice. Of course, taking nothing away from the beast that is Mike Trout!!!
He is amazing and I know most of the people in the world couldn't do what he does but, in my opinion, Kevin Pillar is a better outfielder. Kevin Pillar is definetly not a better batter, but I think he is a better outfielder.
