I love this man, the best with cooking and just simple. Merci Jacque, Happy cooking and may your health be improving. To a good man.

My reign of terror lasted from 1969 thru1994, when softball was the only game in town, where everbody played back then, & competition 'twas at it's very very best. 🥎 'twas the National Sport & every1 wanted to be like "The Babe". Softball 'twas more popular than baseball way back then. 7,000 games under my belt. Vicious swing where ball radar-off the bat exceeded 120 mph at times. Hit rocket line drives that infielders herd a humming surreal sound soaring past them. Infielders backed up into the outfield when I came to bat, dreading grounders coming their way. Able to hit screaming liners with any pitched ball to any field. Hit thru the ball with intense rage, where softball fans herd balls bang off the fences. At 200' 1 would visually watch softball take flight, go airborne, & clear the fence. Hit ball so hard, dented metal bats + warped softball out of it's shape in cool Autumn's nites, under the lights.Possessed world class speed, had a rocket accurate arm that I threw balls in the 90's , World Class Defence Skills, able to play at any position, except pitching. 16" or 12" softball, with or without a glove, swooped balls all up, on base % near perfect, Hit with power, batted clean up, & no 1 was better then me in the clutch under pressure, nobody,! Played for Danan's 16" Softball Team in the Chicagoland area, rated best defensive 16" softball team in the World of Softball. Wisconsin state Champion's for 8 years. Batted 3 for 3 against "King & His Court". Single, double & HR. Be hard pressed to come across any1 with a bag of tools that I possesed. Left many of local hometown favorite hero Champions, crying in shame over their spilt beer at the bar, where hometown team 'twas sponsored. Didn't use no fancy bats or fancy balls just plain 'O Softball Equipment. No 1 tutored me, I learned from my embarrassing missteps that were humiliating. I banged batted balls off the outdoors school wall to perfect my savage swing, played defensive with small bouncy balls that I scooped up & target aimed my ball's precision arm throws on a dime. Seldom showed for any team practice. That's how it 'twas long time ago without cameras, thought the party would never end? "Blast from the Past" SUPER PETE ⚾️

Catfish love them and so do I lol

Such a great atmosphere. I've been away since 2014. Are they still keeping this tradition going?

this is Gold. good people. professionals. entertain . perfect.

I was there with my hubby. Good show

In .47 cor play, his double wall bat is all i used. It was a hot bat. It was the first series DW. Loved the bat. Always loved Demarini bats. Mad respect for Ray...RIP bro

Two great humble chefs & men making dishes together priceless ❤️

Was this filmed at Delta Park in Portland?

Ah the 80s. I used a heavy and dense Bombat in the mid 80s; probably about 33 Ozs. Later I transitioned to Ray's DiMarini Single and Double Wall bats in the mid 90s - 26-28 Ozs. Ray was a pioneer in bat technology and in using lighter weighted bats to increase bat speed and power.

I like the video but it seems like when he hits his front foot lands pointing forward. He says not to have it land like that.

Great hitting advice still. My unanswered question though is a bra one or two items? 😂

We ( family ) had a chance to eat at his spot in Va. but, I would never spend my money on his food. I rather give my money to another bbq person who has a good personality. Myron is too stuck on himself over food. He’s arrogant and just a schmo. Same thing with Robbie! I wouldn’t let Robbie do any life saving medical stuff. I like competition but hate arrogance.

Crazy that the lightest bat he’d used at the time of this video was 33oz. I’ve never even seen a 33oz bat. Now everyone is swinging 25 & 26 oz bats.

❤Excelent episode ! I can not wait to try these original recipies from this 2 master !😊 Thank you for bringing great programing to you tube..I can watch again and again ❤

Lol, I still have this VHS that I bought in the 90s...

Ray couldn’t produce content like this with the ladies now. Sad everyone takes themselves so seriously. Great info

Had my old baseball coach and manager of a slowpitch league that I played in for over 10 years tell me I had the best softball swing he's ever seen after I applied these lessons. He was wrong of course. THE LEGEND in the video is the owner of that title, always, imo. Thank you for the video!!!

Gracious Ming! Giving respect and honor to who came Before him. The way it should always be done.

I like good brisket

12:01 😂

👨🏼‍🍳🫒🥔🐠🍒🥑🥘

Awesome...we must have been elbow to elbow...we were right THERE... thanks for posting,!👍

Beautiful and delicious 💋

Why did i watch this entire thing without ever wanting to play baseball

❤❤❤❤❤❤❗️

Wonderful food, simpatico vibe! Great show!

Watch this before every season. RIP to the GOAT

I am making a brisket soon, and cannot get his injection liquid in time. What would be a similar substitute I could go get? Maybe he said it I just missed it

I miss using our family planted squash flowers* * in our soup tamarind meal dishes homemade at home...😊 ~ Pepin' & Ming'

This is a great clip of AF&R in their golden years w Sam! Thanks for posting !

thanks

Rest In Peace Ray, it’s Ram weather.❤

Thank you for posting this video. I loved that it was casual and uncut. It was helpful and very entertaining!

I had his Bat ,then it was band from league play . Had a distinct sound ,tried to camouflage it .

I miss him dearly. I consider him my hitting coach.

I can hit solid in practice.. hit home runs.. solid line drives…. In a game I pop up.. straight up. Every friggin time.

I have those Oakley Eye Jacket sunglasses to this day!

The man ! And he knows it 😊

“That’s arm extension” and then hits the camera man.

Ive watched a thousand videos on brisket/bbq over the past 5 years. Now while I use a Traeger, not a stick burner, just the first 20 minutes of this video I wish I had seen before yesterday...my first attempt at brisket! It sucked and now I know at least a few reasons why! Cant wait to retry using Myron's techniques.

this is how not to swing 101

You just don’t see this level of guitar playing in the mainstream music genera’s. There is that verisimilitude that comes across with the blues genera that make it a pleasure to listen to.

Honestly this may work with slow pitch softball but most of this is absolute opposite of what is taught for baseball.

Yo I hit my first home run last Saturday after watching this video(inside the field). . I'm 30yrs old my first year back since Jr high. Thanks for the help. Soft pitch is much a different swing it's more patience.

I totally disagree. Fat side up! For the first few hrs. Because it DOES render the flavor back into the meat. Not only that, who can afford a wagoo brisket? The whole part of cooking a brisket is the brisket and the temperature your cooking at at what stage. I don't competition cooking. IF your a good cook, you don't inject a brisket. Turkey's maybe, but not brisket. Sorry, if you cook competition for trophies and money, then do what ever trips your trigger. I cook for family and friends and never had an issue. Do you, do you.

Anson may not be the "Best"...But there's no one Better! He's my pal and a great humble man and glad to have seen him 50 times :) His kindness and love for Sam was Epic!

He didn’t spell “point” so I don’t know what it is. 😂

Nice video
