00:00Crazy moments happen all the time in baseball. Whether you're just stealing a bag in the first,
00:04hitting a walk-off home run in the 9th, or making one of the best catches of all time,
00:08like Kevin Pillar right here. And that was only one of the 10 most unreal baseball moments you
00:18will ever see. Because coming in at number 9, we have what might go down as baseball's greatest
00:22throw of all time. I mean bro missed the ball and just threw an absolute rocket right to the bag.
00:42I don't know if we'll ever see something like that again. But a play that I know will never
00:45happen again is number 8. Because it might be one of the most athletic plays I've ever seen.
01:04I mean the throw missed both cutoff men, but Derek Jeter was still there to back it up and
01:08make the play. The fact that he had to run over 100 feet to make that play was amazing. But someone
01:12who's even more amazing than Jeter is Javi Baez. But specifically, this at bat he had against a
01:17familiar face. Alright, I mean that was just a foul ball, but we're just getting started.
01:42Alright, I mean he's gotta win the at bat now, right?
02:00I mean jeez, I don't know what's more impressive,
02:02the at bat itself or Javi Baez actually walking.
02:17This might be the greatest catch I've ever seen. This catch blew up all over social media,
02:21and many fans questioned if it should have been ruled a home run since the player fell
02:25over the fence. Just two years prior, Mookie Betts made a play that was obviously not going
02:29to be a home run, but flipped into the bullpen, and it was called a home run. After a closer look,
02:34he did drop the ball when he landed, but he seemed to maintain full control of the ball
02:38beforehand. Plus, this was going to be a double at most if he didn't catch it in the first place.
02:42The ruling is tricky, but since the player maintained control of the ball the entire way,
02:46the batter's out. But for this next play, I'm not quite sure how the player held onto the ball
02:50the entire time. I don't know what's better, the fact that he smashed through the wall to make the
03:02play, or this little throw that he does after. Either way, props to him because I know this
03:06one hurt. But another thing that I know is hurting is every Angels fan ever. They haven't won a
03:11playoff game since 2009, they lost the best player in baseball this year, and they're still paying
03:16Anthony Rendon 35 million dollars a year to be hitting 250. Now even though this sounds pretty
03:22bad, they do get to brag about this moment right here, because Anthony Rendon, a natural righty,
03:27goes up to bat lefty in a blowout game against the Rays and does this.
03:31On to the top three most unreal baseball moments that you will ever see, because at number three,
03:36we have one of the strangest interferences that I have ever seen. It's not by a player
03:40or an umpire, but it's actually by one of these guys.
04:00Not only did the bird get in the way, but he also won the game for the Indians because
04:16that was the walk-off hit. Maybe that's why their new logo has these wings on the back,
04:20you know, just as a little thank you to the bird that took one for the team.
04:23But someone else who took one for the team is this player in number two, because this might
04:27be the craziest and coolest run that I have ever seen scored. This play was crazy. Bro actually
04:51front flipped over the best catcher of all time to score the run. If that's not taking one for
04:54the team, then I don't know what is. But by far the craziest play that I have ever seen happened
05:00just a few years back between the Cubs and the Pirates. Wilson Contreras is on second base and
05:04Javi Baez is up to bat. Keep in mind that there are two outs in the inning, okay?
05:24Remember when I said there were two outs? Yeah, well all the Pirates had to do was step on first
05:39to get out of the inning. The run wouldn't even have counted if they had a guy at first to finish
05:43the play, but nobody was there. I guess that's just what Javi Baez does. Even if you are batting
05:49200, everyone loves a smooth and flashy player. And that's why next you should watch this video
05:53about the player with the smoothest swing of all time, Ken Griffith Jr.
