Two absolutely remarkable young men. They are two of the most amazing men I’ve ever seen who know what’s really important. Cheers to both! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@brettgiddens3164]

Man, if only adults could act this way! Young people lead the way…again.

[@MrHemirox1]

You and your friend are cool dudes. Impressive young men.

[@lynna.george8238]

Both of these boys are a great example for young kids today. The parents should be very proud. I am proud of both of you on how you handled this.

[@csprods7854]

Both of them are such great kids they should be proud it was true sportsmanship that everyone should do

[@Frankie5Angels150]

The very natural and respectful way he uses “Yes Sir,” to the interviewer speaks volumes about how this kid is being raised.

No matter where the boys baseball careers takes them.. they can look back at that day as a reminder as to how they made an impact seen around the world.

Aw. 🌟

Friendships can go down some interesting roads. 😊

[@martinpye549]

Just seen the video. Bubbz might be a tough kid, but he's a human being. Both lads are class. Respect from the UK.

[@ceciliadake6220]

Kid, don't ever waste chocolate. Eat the brownie, don't throw it.😁 Both are great kids!

[@msjdb723]

😂 yeah, I didn't understand that part, but I was never a boy. 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@kirtb9784]

great story, great answers, but the interviewer kind of ruined it for me after like the first 5 minutes.. typical news media

[@mattdaugherty7865]

They love to stir the pot!

[@alexwilliams4264]

Young man always play your sports in that spirit everyone knows you didn't intentionally hit your friend you are both tremendous sports people

[@donnhate9081]

oooo u knew each other oooo

[@donnhate9081]

this is a Hollywood Hype..

[@David-vx7ht]

Interviewer asked the same question 3x. Shorter interview would have sufficed.

[@jasonevans8449]

If Pearland LL doesn't fund a trip to the finals for that Tulsa kid who got beaned and who showed such compassion for the Pearland pitcher, a few MILLION irate Texans will be calling on the Pearland coach. Don't embarrass Texas. We'll be watching.

[@mw9688]

……… is this that kid that cried?

[@F5_cena]

Way to go charlie

[@jasonevans8449]

Texans are so very impressed by sportsmanship, compassion, respect of both boys for each other. We are troubled that the pitcher's coach comes out and commands the upset boy 'Look at me. LOOK at me.' Then relieves him of his pitching. All of Texas is so deeply embarrassed by this Pearland coach. He is not a Texan.

[@RipperYouTubeOfficial]

All of texas is? He's not a Texan? Where's he from and why is he coaching a team from Texas?

[@touchdown62]

So if this pitcher said he didn't think he could continue at that moment, the coach should've just ignored that? It was a great move if he didn't think he was able to be an effective pitcher. All of Texas should be embarrassed you consider yourself a Texan.

[@thomthom6268]

@@touchdown62 I'm with you. First, the coach did wait and let the young men have a moment. And he did the responsible thing. He pulled an understandably rattled pitcher out. If the coach ain't Texan, he's demonstrably human. I'm not sure what that says about what JE thinks of Texans.

[@nickdailey9889]

This kid is 12? Looks 16-17

[@thomthom6268]

Not really. No peach fuzz and no arm size. Testosterone has not set in.

[@pickerpete8208]

A tad old to be little league?

[@Hanzyscure]

He's 8 years old

[@Frankie5Angels150]

They’re all 12, plus or minus a couple of months.

[@Frankie5Angels150]

[@pickerpete8208]

I mean I remember little league when I was 7 or so hitting off a tee, not fast pitch baseball and that due is not a small child
