[@aivokallo77]

One day here in cold Finland, I decided I'm gonna watch a full baseball game at random from KZbin and see what it's all about. First game was some regular season game where the Giants beat the Dodgers. It wasn't a great game but still somehow attracting. I watched another one and this time I deliberately chose 2014 World Series game 7. "This is a goddamn exciting game to watch", I thought. Even though nothing that much happened in that game 7. Finally googling "greatest MLB games in history" brought me to watch Rangers-Cardinals Game 6. A grown man developed an fandom feeling from other side of Atlantic, because of a game played over 5 years ago and without any cultural roots to this game other than my own country's variant of baseball. Been a baseball-aficionado ever since.

At the start of the broadcast, Joe Buck and Tim McCarver talk about how in the 80s Jack Buck made a call after a walk off hr that all he said was well see you tomorrow night. Find it funny that is what Joe picked to say after the home run in the 11th

[@Compucles]

The best part for me is the sound of the crack of the bat, then about a half second delay until the fans realize what just happened and the roar is deafening. Love it.

[@jesusthroughmary]

​@ethancossey600 The trivia question of the game was "How many times has World Series Game 6 ended with a home run?" McCarver said, "I remember one, working with your dad in '91. Kirby Puckett, and your dad's famous call was just "We'll see you tomorrow night." " Literal chills when the baseball gods gave Joe the green light to drop that line again just a couple hours later, and Joe crushed it into the upper deck. The perfect call.

It was gut wrenching. Hopefully they can figure it out and get back in the next five-ten years.

[@willhayes867]

They made it back! 3 wins away from the title

[@AtillatheHun]

The Texas Fox affiliate also sent out texts that the Rangers won the World Series when Freeze was still up to bat in the 9th! I am so glad I stayed up to watch this whole game!

[@FNnametag3]

I saw this game in my barracks after work. THE. BEST. Game of baseball i ever watched in highlights or otherwise. Intense as it ever gets.

[@danzemacabre8899]

My most respected baseball warriors,. Ny , NoCal, SoCal , My bros to the north.. yeah you Cubbies, andsome ofthe best baseball fans in that New England area.... None of you will experience the joy of this season. This was baseball heaven, from the grimness of opening day, to knowing our hero, our guy, El hombre, would leave afterwards...... So hard to explain, so many emotions.... For me... Unforgettable

[@danielbyford5208]

Freese is still super clutch. I'm a Sox fan but when the postseason started last year he was huge for the Dodgers.

[@BEETZbyJOE]

As a St. Louis fan. This video is just awesome. You forget just how much we had to overcome that season. I’ll never forget what that team did that year for the rest of my life.

[@kingmo8789]

The 2019 St. Louis Blues needs a deep rewind.

[@robertg2541]

so awesome that this is in my recommended now that he’s retiring. what a great career, dave

[@rtpoe]

There absolutely needs to be a documentary or book on Sept. 28, 2011 - the last day of the regular season, when so much craziness happened in baseball.

This gives me chills, I remember watching this as an 11 year old kid and running around the house celebrating

[@Chimera1591]

Bring back the old music from season 1! YOU GUYS BROUGHT IT BACK!!! The music at 14:44 is why I follow this channel. You should release that music.

[@nonamelegend_vapor]

Little Black Bags should be a requirement for this series

[@gardenboydon]

Here we are. As a Rangers fan, I dreaded that this day would come

[@nonamelegend_vapor]

May the ghosts of 2011 be forever erased

[@barrelrolltoday6051]

I was there with my brother. We walked outside to smoke after the Hamilton homer. We thought that was game/season. Came back to our 13th row seats to see Lance save us. Long story short, the energy in that stadium, prior during and after Freese. Un real. He went to Lafayette HS btw. 20 mins from me. He is a legend.

[@rcapogarcia]

Caroenter's CG shutout on the last day was clutch...Braves meltdown was not...funny how the stars aligned. Great video!

[@Hacksaw_HIM_Thuggin]

More like Carpenters Game 5 CG Shutout against friend Roy DOC Haladay. Did I mention the Phillies has the best record and it was an elimination game too.

[@poz3558]

Would love to see a Rewinder all about game 162 in 2011, with Longoria's walk off being the focus

[@hardyworld]

MLB has a decent play-by-play video of it on their channel, but no narration to explain the stakes each team has that night. Seriously, the best regular season night in baseball history. I'm glad I was glued to my TV that night to take it all in live.

[@poz3558]

@@hardyworld it's one of my favorite memories as a Tampa Bay sports fan.

[@toobusy32]

Thank you for helping me relive one of the greatest ball games I ever had the pleasure to watch.

[@joshhart2445]

I cry thinking about this frequently (tears of joy of course)

[@justusbobo4546]

“We will see you tomorrow night” LEGENDARY CALL I remember staying up and listening to this game on the radio and it gave me chills. Thank you for this video

[@maddybutyoutube]

I feel like we need a rewinder episode on the last day of the 2011 regular season alone

[@justmike75]

Props to whoever made this. This was REALLY well made- ya did great painting the fantastical season of the 2011 Cards

[@ecoRfan]

Texas was one strike away from victory, twice. One of the most painful moments in pro sports history along with the epic choke/comeback in SB51. And I’m not a Texas Rangers or Atlanta Falcons fan either.

[@paulstrinni8283]

I believe it was decidedly ecstatic and not painful in any way. One of the, if not the, greatest comebacks in baseball history. The stuff movies are made from.

[@scottrohrbeck7672]

@Jake True, but the difference with 2013 NBA Finals Game 6 is that at least the Spurs had multiple championships with the same coach to fall back on (not to mention getting revenge the next year). The Rangers and Falcons were both within centimeters of their first title, which definitely makes those two more brutal to watch.

[@drmariopepper4354]

Berkman had crucial at bats to setup both Freese moments. Great series! Go Cards!!

[@chrissquire8542]

...Now that was a Great! presentation. Thank you Brother. I lived it, right outside of the stadium standing next to my bicycle. Swear to God, I Knew we were not going to lose. I knew it sure as I knew the Sun was gonna rise the next day. 4 WS appearances in 9 yrs. Thank you, you did a fantastic job!....

[@AtillatheHun]

This is the Blues 2011 season, Let's go Blues!!!!

[@irieharris2194]

Beef history- Isaiah Thomas vs Jordan & Magic Johnson Kobe vs Raja Bell Tonya Harding vs Nancy Kerrigan What y’all think?

[@tim.noonan]

They’d blow ‘Tonya’ out of the water

[@daviddouglass3606]

I think we don't need even more NBA content. This channel has basically become entirely basketball. Let us enjoy our MLB stories in the offseason.

[@benjiklotz6505]

Tanya would be interesting

[@mr.anderson2241]

Irie Harris I agree with magic and Isaiah specifically

[@fond-a-wayracing2644]

Wife and I were there! Standing room only, craziest thing I have ever seen. Praise StL.

[@Scoutmann1975]

Every time I watch this, I’m 16 again. My Dads still alive, telling me to go to bed, the Cards are toast. Every time I watch this I get emotional. Everytime I watch this, the players I grew up loving are still playing. I know the hurt for Texas fans, but for Cards fans, man it caused heart attacks. It literally became a team of destiny. Like Angels in the outfield.

[@cbrodeo5935]

Watched this game as an 11 year old boy living in St. Louis and raised to love baseball. Begging my dad to keep the TV on in the 8th inning, luckily he stuck around to watch with me. Will never forget that night, and i’m sure it will be a story I tell until the day I die.

[@arzamarsh1146]

As a die hard Texas Rangers fan, this still tears my heart in two just watching that triple and that home run, even without going over the magnitude of everything to get there. I was so mad when I saw that ball clear the fence. Now that I've gotten that out of my system, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL GREAT STORIES, do Alec Martinez's 2014 Stanley Cup winning goal.

[@nonamelegend_vapor]

Here to prepare myself to get my heart broken by Game 7 tonight. Hopefully this doesn't age well

[@SinaSoh]

It didn’t but that’s okay, celebrate, we are champs in 2023!!!

[@nonamelegend_vapor]

@@SinaSoh damn straight!!!!

[@__dane__]

As an Astros fan I felt very conflicted seeing Berkman win a WS with the Cardinals. But also, as an Astros fan, it was a delight to see Berkman stab the Rangers in the heart

[@king_darth1015]

We had no right winning that game, let alone that series, and Freese saved us twice. Im still getting chills

[@ImAlxxy]

I casually watched this game at a friend's house starting in the top of the 9th inning . I wasn't a baseball fan, or even a sports fan, I'm not from Texas or st Louis. This game got me hooked onto baseball and sports in general. Thank you David.
