Hideki Matsui 10 Greatest Yankee Home Run Moments

[@adamfitzgerald911]

Matsui batted .615 in that 2009 world series.

[@Tooch24]

Killed us. Phills Should have won back to back chips. Godzilla made sure that didn't happen.

[@swirlingtoilets]

Fucking hell, his OPS in that series was over 2. 8-13, 3 dingers, 8 RBIs across 6 games. Absolute mad lad that series.

[@JoeGX460]

That's pretty big number!

[@KingoftheWelsh]

And he was traded away that off season. I was so angry. He wasn't on the field as much but his bat was so reliable and he carried this world series. The MVP no less. He deserved better

[@ciello___8307]

@@KingoftheWelsh he regressed pretty bad after that season though. He was getting old

[@timothyfogarty5829]

Definitely a modern day Yankee legend. I'll never forget the 2009 world series. We wouldn't have done it without him

[@howie9751]

True, but overall he was a hot and cold hitter. Like the 2004 playoffs against the Red Sox. He could suddenly turn into a long slump and then turn around and go into a long hitting streak. More so than average. So I can't consider him a Yankee legend though I did like him.

[@naoarai2587]

@@howie9751 If you have a chance to talk to Derek Jeter, ask him. then He will tell you how Matsui is Yankees legend.

[@tf2529]

Jeter called Matsui one of his favorite all time teammates. That is saying something.

[@Surfer041]

Matsui was beloved by his team mates, the fans, and the league. He did everything right.

[@inutero10]

Matsui was the heart of that 09 team

[@tim_5183]

He still to this day will forever be my favorite baseball player, I hated seeing him leave New York but he went out on top 💯

[@johnnytravis6697]

He does his job....trots around the bases at a respectable pace....Touches home.....then goes directly to the dugout where he will then smile and celebrate modestly. The professionalism in this can’t be undervalued. He’s ecstatic inside but he always acted like he’d been there before. Mastui = CLASS ACT!

[@chrispetrillo9042]

Being a Yankees fan I was always disappointed that they didn't bring Matsui back for the 2010 season or beyond especially after all the success he had.

[@waydebaker33]

As a BASEBALL fan it should royally piss you off. Godzilla is probably one of the most underrated clutch performers in the history of sports

[@lincolnoliveira3041]

Choice

[@tim_5183]

Same feeling, he earned the right to come back in 2010...but I got to see the day they honored him in 2013, I’m so happy he’s appreciated because he truly was an amazing player watch

[@wavy2k]

@@waydebaker33 dude …. You are absolutely right. This man was CLUTCH !!!

[@howie9751]

@@waydebaker33 He was only clutch when on a hot streak. He wasn't clutch when in one of his long droughts as in the last four games of the 2004 Sox playoffs. He was like that his whole career with the Yanks. Both hot and cold streaks were long.

[@deadpan80]

Never realized how much he owned Pedro

[@CronoXpono]

That’s what I love about baseball. Everyone has their bogey opponent, some of em are hilarious.

he was extremely clutch

WHO'S YOUR DADDY

[@97omar100]

Matsui never faced Prime Pedro. He was at the end of his career in 2009.

[@Pat-TMW]

True professional and a gentleman of the game. Loved the roar of the crowd when he hit that bomb in the Tokyo Dome. I Recommend anyone go see a game there it is an amazing experience! 👍🏼

[@aircommandslipperz]

he was playing for yomiuri giants before yankees and tokyo dome was their homeground

[@lincolnoliveira3041]

[@SG-jm7np]

“Who’s your daddy?” “Hideki Matsui” Pedro Martinez

[@jorgeb4963]

Loved Matsui! Had so many big games for Yankees.. great memories...

[@JBOY2971]

I think so, too

[@kendrymanzanillo8674]

Matsui: Pedro Martínez is my son. Martínez: is true😅

[@輝中ぴかちゅう好角家]

毎回のように Captainジーターが立ち上がって祝福の拍手をしてくれる。松井ファンとしてこれはとても嬉しい‼️😆 こんな素敵なCaptainがいるチームでやれたことは幸せだったんじゃないかな？ と素人が勝手に思っております😆

[@akshaysundaram1836]

Love this man. A true Yankee through and through

[@Crusader_Jones]

Ahhh old Yankee Stadium how I miss you

[@mason.11]

Severely underrated Yankee from the 2000s decade

[@rogerscollier7424]

I have always believed his first home run the grand slam in his first game was his most memorable. I remember watching the game live . The electricity in the stands was amazing. Next to Reggie he had a true flair for the dramatic. Since his career as a Yankee wasn’t long enough. No consideration for the HOF

[@aiiirbender]

Yankee legend for sure

[@T43B1GD0G]

He lowkey had the best bat flip. Subtle but great

[@johnnytravis6697]

I’m glad you brought this up. He always kept his emotions at bay and was respectful and a class act....the bat flip happens so quickly after getting a hold of the ball that he couldn’t contain it completely, but it’s PERFECT...he never took it too far or did it out of disrespect. True professional.

[@natoalvarez5762]

This man was cold blooded lethal I swear yet so humble . The quiet ones are always the lethal killers and that's what he was a killer in the clutch

[@UAa320]

The definition of an honorable/respectable player is Hideki Matsui. Thank you Hideki Matsui for all those amazing moments you provided us.

[@lisa-sk5bt]

[@PSS521]

[@waltonwarrior7428]

Great memories. Thanks for posting

[@baseballman74]

Love the swing! Matsui was more than a average player! He was a solid and then some! I’ll take him on my line up every day and twice on the Sunday!

[@OroborusFMA]

That 2009 Yankee team won it all because it had a horde of clutch bats on fire in the post-season, including Matsui. In Matsui's other years it was astounding how many guys would just go ice cold once October started.

[@drchase140]

Awesome vid! I know this gets hammered over the head a lot, but I have to say, Joe Buck ruined so many great Yankee moments :|

[@THR33STEP]

Joe Buck didn’t just kill classic Yankee moments, he killed countless classic MLB moments and NFL moments. He is a piece of shit.

[@drchase140]

@jl rx If you like a monotone voice, with little excitement and minimal commentary then Joe is your guy... you're right about the Leyritz homer, but thats an anomaly

[@hortons1967]

Not really because the smart ones turned the TV down and radio up. Back in these days you could listen to any teams home radio for free on the net. Now it costs money and the games are rigged....

[@lincolnoliveira3041]

Hosteling

[@michaelchristensen9004]

Already a member of the Japanese hall of fame, 507 Homer's Japan and MLB combined. Thinking he's a good candidate for the MLB hall of fame.

[@OctagonObserver]

What an underrated player, look how nice and flat he keeps the bat when he swings.

[@kyokogodai-ir6hy]
