Benito Santiago Padres Career Highlights

[@nitosantiagojr]

great vid of my pops, salute and my respect to you 100%

[@followthewhiterabbit8561]

cool story bro. anyone can say that.

[@parkjamesshaw3189]

Benny Jr. Ur pop's was and is my idol. I'm 48 years old and became a catcher in my freshman year in highschool. I emulated ur dad by throwing from my knees to every base. I graduated from high school in 1992 from East Kentwood in grand rapids Michigan and I played against Derek Jeter who was from Kalamazoo Michigan.

[@parkjamesshaw3189]

I met ur pops at marlins spring training when he joined fla inaugural year. I even wore the diamond gold cross earring and wore number 9. 09 to be correct because ur father said if I just wear 9 they can't see it on my back with the strap from chest protector. I hope u reach back out to me because I'm the biggest supporter then and now of ur father and I!

[@parkjamesshaw3189]

U that is

[@parkjamesshaw3189]

I still cry to this day watching ur pop's be mvp in 2002 vs braves and have the world series right f-ing there for him with dusty Baker and giants vs prick angel's. We had that fuckin series! Sorry for my swearing

THE MOST underrated catcher in MLB ......he was the Tatis Jr. of the Padres back then.

[@ernestcortes1392]

Benito is something special. Can't deny that... But it's more like Tati's is the Benny of the Padres back then. Coming from a Dodgers fan, nobody played like Benny, except for Pudge. But what do you expect when they are both from Puerto Rico.

#9 Benito Santiago is the greatest catcher in San Diego Padres history.

[@davidtitorivera]

The Padres should have locked him up for the rest of his career like Tony Gwynn

[@CSDonohue11]

Most Definitely Benny was The Man I was so stoked when The REDS Got Him

[@Emmathelady]

As a Giants fan, I love he too

[@CSDonohue11]

Talk about a forgotten legend Santiago was So Dope Got His career back on track with My REDS I was bummed when they let Him go to the Giants But…. Obviously He got more $ & Years Like Kevin Mitchell had a really nice comeback year with The REDS

[@Mr.Derogatory316]

Love him as a Giant he looks and reminds me of Carlos Santana the famous guitarist musician

Cunning Runners out from His knees So Sweet with The D 😁

[@jimmymosierjr.7530]

I had mini package of season tickets (Pops paid for them) in 86-89, watching him throw runners out from his knees, his hitting streak his rookie year, watching him change his number from 9 to 09, good times. Great time to be a kid in San Diego.

[@RodFamVlogs]

Most of those hits with Gwynn at second base 💪🏻

[@crazyralph6386]

That throw @1:33……dayum!!!

[@habro416]

[@chadouellette790]

[@yoelpimentel651]

Un fuera de serie benito para la historia

[@KeithLaGrone]

Why so many highlights Of home runs? He's a defensive genius

[@bitterbob30]

One of the greatest if not THE greatest guns for a catcher and you only have one clip of him throwing out a base runner?

[@nowwatching5206]

Exactly!!!

[@MD-cn1nt]

One of the best defensive catchers of the last 50 years, and his career highlight reel features one defensive play. Why?

[@fromdeathtolife1993]

HIM AND TONY PENA CHANGE THE CATCHING GAME UP...THROWING PEOPLE OUT FROM YOUR KNEE 😂😂 I DID IT A FEW TIMES IN HIGH SCHOOL.. GROWING UP THESE WHERE MY FAVORITE 2 CATCHERS

[@mck974]

HELL of a catch at 02:40.

[@CSDonohue11]

Nice running catch 👍

[@juanfranciscosantana4793]

THE RIFLE MAN .# 9

[@parkjamesshaw3189]

Juan. This Puerto Rican could kill cows in Ponce with his live arm

[@tinydancer62]

Sometimes I was able to sit behind home plate when he was with the Giants. I would always say hey and he'd turn around and wave.

[@johnnynephrite6147]

Sadly the Padres lost 8 out of 10 of those games.
