Yankees Pitcher uses funky deliveries to trick Shohei Ohtani, a breakdown 

Hhahahahah!

😂😂😂😂😂

Would never expect a Nestor throwing 94 though

that’s fucked up. what’s worse, can’t say I disagree.

nopw nesters funky bowling

I KNEW I recognized that mustache from somewhere!

Lmao

Right?

🤣🤣🤣

Bagel? 😂

What? He 26??

😂😂😂😂

my jaw dropped

🤣

He's gonna be the most matured face like some kind of illness or something.

I thought the quick pitch right after was hysterical 🤣

Another unwritten rule of baseball is that you’re not supposed to hypnotize the batter with leg pumps or slow down the passage of time by lifting your leg and holding it.

@@MarcosElMalo2 It's unwritten so who cares

@@Disembow1280 it was a joke.

He's a pitcher, too. He knows what's up.

All those pumps on the barber chair plus the booster seat.

haha ikr

@@DyslexicMitochondria Your username made me click on ur profile. Your channeI is a hidden gem bro

He was signaling the catcher he was going to throw a fade

No

Hes a baby godzilla

Like, imagine getting paid millions of dollars to play one of the most chill sports out there. Who wouldn't be happy playing it?

@@0xlich look at san diego bench after home runs. Ill sign up any day

Tatis Jr. is having some fun himself, and it's infectious...

Yep, a joy to watch.

It's sad he ended up on the Angels. Wow what a mistake.

Kinda sus but ok 😂

@@fatboyyjr9800 why?

@@fatboyyjr9800 Would it be better for him to be bar hopping with the guys, with his limited understanding of the American bar scene? Exposing him to possibly bigoted attacks? Risking him getting hurt, both physically and emotionally? If his team mates are cool staying back with him to chill in the room, let him. He'll have years to find out how screwed up America can be. Let him find out slowly.

No need to goto parties. He get so much attention at games anyways... He probably just wants to chill.

He’s just ballsy enough to do it

David Cone, one of the Yankees’ color commentators and former MLB pitcher, absolutely LOVES Nestor Cortes precisely because he mixes things up. Cone has said several times that he would use similar tactics when he was playing and appreciates the strategy still being used.

Plus your mom likes that mustache

My mans got a sub 2 era and been clutch for the Yankees as a reliever this season

100%. Pro sports need more guys like this

Coach Kent said pump that shit up

*I vant to Pahmp, you Ahpp*

The ol Hingle McKringleberry

@@tobiaslyons5470 "Oh and Kent, stop playing with yourself." "It is God."

How's it fappening

Wanna like him even more? At the time I am writing this, he is 5-1 with a 1.50 ERA and only Cole has more innings pitched so far this year. (It's still early though)

@@sigmapete1 dang

@@sigmapete1 like Jamie Moyer.....that dude pitched into his 40s and was mediocre but won games

@@JDCline1982 He's better than mediocre. Cortes is top 5 in xwOBA

Elite pitchers don’t need to do all that nonsense on the mound lol

He definitely brings a brighter side to this darkness we're living in.

Lmao

🤣🤣🤣😅😂

man I died when I saw it. But the more they showed the replay of the slow leg kick, the funnier it was

🤣🤣😂😂🤣

Casual here. Clueless about baseball. RU-vid’s algorithm recommended this video to me. Amusing video to begin with, in a good way. What you are saying helps me appreciate this further. Game recognize game. Thank you for sharing! 😁

U can’t play both of those positions I think u r thinking babe Ruth but he is long retired (unfortunately passed away). I bet the reason u r miss taken is becuz babe to played for the Yankees (pin stripe uniform in the vid) but there wood not be vid of babe Ruth he played long ago in the days before vid existed. They since banned the to positions after babe set the world record in both as it was unfair

@@ronnieturner6820 ohtani is a pitcher tho he won mvp last year,he pitched and bats as dh when he is not pitching

@@ronnieturner6820 hahahahahahaha yes!! Thank you so much. Sarcasm at its finest.

this is what this video needed

@Rev ٖ he laughs after walking off a team after a 2-2 night 2 hrs and 2 intentional walks

Let's see how much he's laughing when he realizes the Angels are in 4th place 😂

@CJ P. what's it called when you almost win? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah ... "losing"! 🤣

True.

@@wrydstepbr0_0 I doubt he cares...most players dont care about winning anymore its about the cash. I wouldnt even give a crap about winning if I'm making tens of millions lol

Everyone except the ump huh

@@jlruiz7634 I approve of the ump in this case. I think he knew ohtani would never ever do that, and is an honest class act. He deserves to be pitched to right. Don't succumb to using gimmicks or dirty tricks on ohtani. It's just not right. Give it all you've got, pitch your best to him, right, true, and fair. Simple as that. If the pitcher showed respect and ohtani smashed him, respect. Fair play. Ohtani knows what respect is all about. Resorting to timing gimmicks is semi pro at best, disrespectful at worst. Way to go ump, the right call for sure.

@@P3GProductions LOL!!! Appearances can be deceiving bro. I gotta tell people who know me I got called soft, they'll be so proud of my progress!

@@Mr-pm3jp dang bro you got the whole squad laughing

thanks for waving!

Wow lucky you

Nobody cares go outside!

@@ItzzTesta he was outside!

@@hdjono3351 hahahahah😭😭😭

😁

I don’t watch baseball at all but these breakdowns are pure gold

then watch more baseball

If you don't watch Ohtani, what is the point of your existence?

No way

@@joseaca1010 yes way

@@joseaca1010 Don't forget that Shohei played in the Japanese League for a few years.

He looks like my gardener

I shouting no way and googled... Damn

Aaron Judge is as likeable as Ohtani.

Peach finally ditched his suspendered self

nope, all the og's remember mario baseball for nintendo wii

@@RS-Caleb that's Dr. Mario to you plebs.

Racist!

What? Plumbers become MLB pitchers all the time.

No, they get pissy when the batters flip their bat on a non homerun.

Nimmo reacted same way

Funny part is they both went hit less against nestor

Just like Trout he's gonna waste away on the Angels sadly

Sums the angels up perfectly. Always got the big bats, but never go anywhere with em.

The angels fucking came back and won

Rangers are the only sub .500 team in the division.

@@BB-hp8zl The AL West is an easy division now. It wasn't a few years back when they nearly won 90 games and still missed the playoffs.

Could anyone not love Nestor???😂😂😂

@Dirty Dave Shh, Yogi Berra is speaking, it doesnt have to make sense. You just have to let his words hit your heart

@Dirty Dave this is why base ball is 90% mental. You can play mlb when you figure out

@Dirty Dave *in McBain voice* That’s the joke.

My favorite Yogi-ism was when someone called him at 2am once. “Hey Yogi, did I wake you?” “No, I had to get up to answer the phone anyway.”

literal gold lol

For real. Nestor has an ERA of 2.79 this year. Any ERA below 3 is absolute elite.

Really is hilarious too

@@manbok2035 in 2022 he has an ERA of 1.41.

nasty nestor al cy young winner 2022

*inner monologue* Wait! That wind up! I've seen this before ... *main character theme song starts playing *

@@TheOrangeRoad 😂😂🎯

What is AARP ? Association …something ? Sorry i'm from the same country as Shohei ：)

and Cortes is only 26 and younger than Shohei

@@blueapple4044 thank u so much! Arigato !

Glad to help.

Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades

Because... he's asian? There are plenty of Japanese manga and anime revolving around baseball (they love it there), but they also have plenty of foreign players. So, what's the point of this comment?

@@userjoinedyourchannel1 He's saying that Ohtani is just like the anime character who throws and hits and its unreal. It does'nt mean anything about his race

Nestor Too they’re both just there to play a game and have fun, it’s so rare but it’s beautiful to watch

This did not age well

@@derekwang7330 What happened? I only watch baseball thru Jomboy breakdowns.

@@nottoday7377 Nestor Cortes is a top 5/top 10 pitcher in the MLB right now

@@derekwang7330 Oh shit! Well done “Yankees Pitcher”

@@nottoday7377 He used to be one of the worst pitchers

Ghaaay

Lies, all lies.

@@VicRattleHead28 If I'm gay for thinking Ohtani is attractive, then I don't want to be straight

I agree, he’s a cutie 🥰

YES! He has style, gorgeous face, humble & that 6'4 210 BODY is as fabulous as his plays! ⚾⚾⚾🔥

Is Jomboy slowly converting you to a baseball enthusiast sdyoungii? These are the types of moments that people, who think the game is slow and boring, don't understand. Sure not every pitcher is as entertaining as Nestor Cortes. But it's always a must see event when a great hitter like Ohtani steps to the plate. No drama is like baseball drama.

Same. Thought we'd get him then were like... of course not. Noooo not the Angels! Doesn't go to us but does go to our division! Darn it!!!

Did you know Nestor Cortez was a mariner? The Yankees got him from the rule 5 draft from you guys

You had your Japanese phenom, k? Lol jk it’s awesome to see the love between sports fans tbh.

He gets intentionally walked like all the time lol

You’re a baseball fan? Never would have thought

Dog collar

@@rayben675 the last 2-3 weeks Ohtani has been seeing a beach ball out there and getting pitchers best stuff. Hasn’t been getting walked nearly as much

Nah. Orioles intentionally walked him twice in one game.

Asian don't raisin

But built like a superhero 😭😭

"Body like Arnold's, with a baby face."

@@boohoo7432 as an asian I can confirm

@@noahb2804 as also an Asian, I can also confirm. lol

Now I'm just imagining the psychotic image of Ohtani in full sprint toward the mound with that smile on his face.

Ohtani charges the mound... to give Cortez a bear hug.

If he got to 13 pumps, they would have needed the grounds crew to clean up the mound.

He'll charge the mount to show Cortez how to throw the strike he couldn't hit. But since he knew what was coming, he'll still hit it anyway.
