Tug McGraw | Phillies Highlights 

Nasty pitches. We could use someone like him right now. Wish I could have seen him play back in the day. RIP

This is Very well done. The heartbeating at the end. RIP TUG.

Played semi-pro with him one year in Delaware. I think he might have been late 40s or early 50s. He was there more for the love of the game than anything else, and he was always the most fun guy at the game. Such a great guy... LOVED the Tugger.

Tug was so much exciting, you knew he was going to put us on a tight rope, but you knew he was going to get us through it. but off the field, he was a nice man and very thoughtful. met him a few times and got to talk with him about 3 years before he passed. his insights into the game, but also into how we could use sports to pique children's interest in mathematics and science were well thought out and i believe would actually work if implemented.

He was the fn best relief pitcher in my time growing up in South Philly Joey thank you tug for 1980 world series I was 16 years old Joey South Philly

You gotta believe!!!! Tugger went way too soon. We miss you Tug.

What a phenomenal series! I was only six years old when that happened and the 1983 crushed me. Here in Harry K was great.

#1 then, #1 now, #1 forever. Even his son Tim and his music is no stranger to the same rank on the country charts. Rest easy, Tug!

So bizarre how Tim McGraws favorite baseball player was his Dad before he knew he was actually Tug’s Son.

Adequate fastball, nice curve, really good screwball, changes speeds. Its incredible to think the Mets had Seaver, Koosman, Gentry, Matlack, Ryan and McGraw. That would have been the greatest pitching staff ever.

Need someone like him in the bullpen now

Nasty screwgie! You could always count on The Tugger to shut down the opposition in 8th and 9th. I loved watching McGraw at the Vet.

My all time favorite player, TUG McGraw! Loved when he played for the N.Y. METS!

just something i noticed that i never did before, on the day the Phillies clinched the division in 1980, our usually stellar defense made 5 errors. 5 errors and still won the game, but just our usually rock solid defense made 5 errors.

My all time favorite player No. 45!

Nice job. Tug made the Phillies Fun

Rip Legend

McGraw belongs in the HOF. He doesn't have the Save numbers of a Fingers or Rivera because he was never a closer. He was a middle inning reliever whom you hardly ever had to bring in a closer for. I'd have to check but I bet he has one of highest innings per game ratios of most relief pitchers with similar number of appearances.

That screwball looked deadly

Goat

THE BEST!

Just heard the npr interview of Tim, I could have guessed that was his dad

My first baseball card 1983 Tug Mugraw

Harry Kalas "65,000 on their feet here at Veterans Stadium the Tugger needs one more!"

That's when players were fun

Even 2008 World Series win couldnt compare to that 1980 roar!

mitch williams hilights please

John Kruk highlights

this is amazing until you remember who his son is lmao

Bring back bullpen cars.

I wonder if he could sing
