/ foolishbaseball

[@dannycasserly697]

Lucas will never admit it but he first fell in love with baseball watching Bailey on the 2001 braves

[@SecretSSC5]

facts

[@BaseballQuotes1]

so cool to see actual MLB players geeking out about Baseball Bits

[@gamemeister27]

They seem shockingly accessible compared to other major sports

[@EldritchAugur]

Giolito was actually directly naming episodes and moments from them, like he clearly does actually geek out on this stuff. So cool that players watch this stuff like we do.

[@charliearcese]

Stars, they're just like us

[@benballier9580]

@@parkermaki3799 this is very true. They’re also usually pretty intelligent, and a good amount are absolute nerds, which allows them to talk deeply about the game in a way that intrigues any baseball fan.

One of the most athletic men in the world ...and Lucas Giolito

The premier physical specimen ... and Lucas Giolito

[@ZachNarwhal]

One of the best pitcher's in baseball ... and Lucas Giolito

[@pdraggy]

oooh burrrrn

[@Hauntz_er]

Well yeah, he led the 2001 braves in war

[@JUnior-ot1xu]

Crazy to think a All Star pitcher in the MLB uses MLB the show to help him with his scouting report

[@okaytoaster96]

How fitting I get a baseball ad before watching a foolish baseball video EDIT: IDK why but giolito fanboying over Bailey is the funniest thing ever

[@RetroBaseball]

I got a cereal ad so 100% related…

[@KofieWhy]

YESSSSSSSSS

[@bigsackjack69]

Hey kofie

[@FoolishBailey]

hey

[@notbravo_delta7346]

Hi Kofie.

[@michaels8816]

Hey Kofie

[@purple12701]

Lucas doesn't look like an MLB player. He looks more like he's a junior associate at a small law firm.

[@leroygibbons2798]

he looked really nervous when Bailey mentioned his RPM going up. It's a sticky situation.

[@plootoisaplanet]

don’t blame him. just how the league is rn

[@wilsonadrianza733]

nah he didn’t look nervous. He maintained the same expression he had before RPM was mentioned.

[@DropYourFear]

At least with giolito there is a mechanics change that correlates with the spin rate going up

[@ravenalexis2815]

I love how Lucas embraces his failures and mentions his wife helping him get his head right. He is well spoken and fun to listen to. Great Video!

[@dfgccgggff7963]

thaonepuppyguy eh, who cares honestly, like if the league doesn't enforce it is it really a rule

[@sabiebright4554]

Careful bailey, now all the great pitchers are gonna try to just hang out and talk to you to get a video

[@derkaiserzen]

1st you had Honeywell . Now you had Giolito.. What's next? Kate Upton's Husband?

[@Speedster___]

Lol

[@vic-zv4bb]

Link to glasnow interview?

[@joebrowne1323]

Hey Bailey you forgot to mention you were a superstar player for the 2001 Braves

[@michaelstrain9235]

This interview was great, but your 430 shot in the 1995 NLCS still blows my mind

[@ndrocca]

This is awesome! It must feel so satisfying to hear an elite MLB player talk about how much they love your videos. It’s also great to see a more human side of a Cy young candidate. You deserve it Bailey!

[@CrescentCitySweaters]

Using MLB the Show as an active visualization tool is really interesting. I’ve thought about it as a scouting tool as it’s being described, but having the difficulty all the way down at beginner and mowing them down is a hilarious albeit a bit unrealistic way to get confident going into a start.

[@thebigunit6717]

This is a great interview. Love the Nardwuar question “why should people care about Lucas Giolito?”. Well done yet again Bailey this was a fun watch.

[@jamesgoforth3802]

Lucas Giolito is the leader of the Foolish Baseball Fanclub

[@MrLcoop]

Bailey’s been studying nardwuar’s interviews, asking him “why should people care about Lucas Giolito” lol

[@cronoesify]

Bros I'm watching this a few years later and i hope this guy has a good year. Divorces suck.

[@Cmass9]

2 great athletes in their prime

[@rodney7793]

Staying up late playing video games the night before a playoff game is fucking crazy lol. Giolito seems cool. I liked his grandpa in Seinfeld.

[@chrisfrmatl]

One of my greatest fears is that Bailey will one day grow tired of giving us all this phenomenal stuff and will retire and what the hell will we do then?

[@booradley6832]

Watch Baseball doesnt exist or Baseball isnt dead. They're on the same level just havent gotten big yet.

[@johnjohnsonjohn]

​@@booradley6832the stuff BDE puts out is so smooth brained

[@nickadams370]

I love how candid he is in this, this is amazing

[@FejSkaz]

Happy for you Bailey, you deserve this.

[@themiddlecase]

Totally awesome to see his appreciation of Baseball Bits. I hope there are many more to follow!

[@WaffleLover-my1hi]

Great interview! I loved the bit at the end about the Rod Barajas baseball bits and Jonathan Lucroy!

[@jds614]

This is so awseome that videos like this can create moments like this. So awseome....hope both keep it up

[@jrHAHA2]

Fantastic interview, thanks Bailey!

[@imSethy]

This is so cool. Giolito is such a chill guy too

[@tylerhonsel8136]

Awesome stuff from Lucas Giolitto and Foolish Baseball. Fascinating to hear Giolitto talk about his career, the intricacies of his craft and his no hitter. Thank you to Foolish for taking the deep dive into the details.

[@hlpagel]

the thought of an mlb pitcher spending 25 minutes on roster admin in mlb the show as prep for the next day's irl game is hilarious to me 🤣🤣🤣

[@maddux1188]

You know he on that sticky stuff

[@GotDamBoi]

it's so cool to see an MLB player geeking out over these vids. good shit, Bailey! edit: now reading the comments and seeing that a few people already said this lol

[@TheTEN24]

Awesome content! Cool to see a pro wanting to be on your show

[@krohnc]

Bailey your so talented and made me love baseball all over again. Keep it up man

[@joeburrow94]

This is the greatest video since the first episode of the Seattle mini series!!!!

[@Thisaccoun]

1:19 Lucas in his head "dafuk you tryna get me to talk about pine tar?"

[@spncrkln]

This is awesome Bailey. Grew up in LA playing against Max Fried’s younger brother so Max & Lucas were household names. Good dude for sure

[@mattswenson9576]

This last baseball bits was an emotional roller coaster. One of my favorites I think

[@AlexSmith-tz2lf]

First question: Why are you making me do this? Lmao This was such a great video and I really like that you were approached by Lucas rather than looking for an interview. Your video breakdowns are fantastic my dude.

[@SenorTortas]

Lucas Giolito. You are an Anaheim Angel!

[@BrianKapellusch]

Stellar interview. All I need for baseball are Foolish Baseball, Jomboy, and sbnation/secret base

[@wataruando3463]

Now you need Carlos Rodon Baseball Bits

[@jaygutierrez7623]

Cespedes BBQ are missing a no-hitter. The Dodgers threw one against the Padres in 2018, in Mexico!

[@swisscheese6456]

Two really cool cats on one video. LETS GO!

[@Keough.]

32:15 is by far the best part

[@christophercox5192]

The is absolutely fantastic material.

[@slambat298]

this is a nice video to get to know giolito with him coming to the red sox now

[@bakerking5351]

I’m a Pirates fan but that no hitter was fun to watch. Lucas seems like a cool dude, happy he’s having success 💪🏼

[@chasebingaman]

I've always liked Giolito because I watched him a couple times when he was on the Nats AA team.

[@shiftclickgaming2190]

the Lucas Giolito wikipedia tab has me dead

[@samuelpersi3197]

I need to know what pitching interface Giolito uses in MLB The Show

[@henrycheatum8546]

that first question is so much funnier in the context of the interview than the baseball bits

[@luisamparou]

Oh man, this is awesome.

[@billycurtis4236]

I always knew the podcast would come eventually

[@karstenmaurer5266]

We need a Tim Locastro part two

[@jtark31]

Some day, Gio is gonna be an amazing color commentator

[@IIIluminate]

This is so cool!

[@mikeweeks694]

This is great

[@huntergross5476]

This is something special

[@Flyersfan28]

You should start the “foolish giolito” podcast

[@maxcumming4880]

This is sick

[@rrrey4448]

Dude this is nuts how is it that you can get a genuine interview with an mlb player , and THE MLB still black-outs dodger games for me !!!

[@harrisonlevy8171]

This is dope

[@Phoneybeetlemaniacxs]

I wonder if Bailey is going to ask about the substance used by pitchers and if he does

[@CatchCraftInc]

Damn, you’re talking to the guy who won the 2025 al cy young award in my show franchise

[@YoungSantasGroupie]

no comments about Gio's hair? haha. Look at those lush, italian locks. Wow. Head and Shoulders better hit him up for an endorsement.

[@TheAmpharosFreak]

Lucas sorry for booing you on opening day, but I know you understand the fans lol. Go Angels!!!

[@mshanahan6810]

Now, this is epic 😎

[@ryanbobyan]

My first FB vid was the Braves call one

[@BigBallerBrand_]

Pretty cool Giolito and Fried still hang out

[@6thwilbury2331]

Okay, Lucas Giolito might be my new favorite player.

[@petroklaxis]

My MLB 19 RTTS character plays for the white Sox and is teammates with Lucas. I thought it was cool that he used the game as a tool.

[@Emersonrhodes909]

Yesssssirrrr

[@schnickoman]

So really he had a no hitter through 8.2 and only 1 hard hit ball, just as amazing

[@bruhlol4185]

Petition for foolish bb to make a podcast

[@ndmill.5748]

We need more braves baseball bits

[@tylerbennett1191]

Wish the pirates had him, great pitcher

[@huntergray2758]

What on earth do i have to do to get gios roster

[@pacificdrumma]

His voice and cadence reminds me so much of Nick Thune

[@badboyluis03]

Loved that nardwuar reference

[@runrin_]

prob my favorite player and im not even a white sox fan.

[@noahwagner3015]

This Bailey dude is pretty cool

[@NoatheLAPTOPnerd01]

dude im so excited for u... ur on the way bailey, call me when ur a gm, also hi Lucas, tell Casey Holt's friend Noah says hi hahahah

[@NoatheLAPTOPnerd01]

also sounds like Casey loves your show too

[@briguyhenny6923]

I think the main point Bailey is trying to explain in this video Is that Bohm never touched home plate

[@MorgenBaird_888]

Hi

[@samharris6716]

GO SOX

[@peytonsmith921]

Hi Bailey

[@KevinHalloran]

Do a video on Kerry Wood's 20K game!

[@corbenpeach813]

Is Giolito in the comments?

[@leppardism]

Jomboy is mad because lucas likes more foolish baseball

[@booradley6832]

I like how when they're signing off the famous multi millionaire people pay money to see perform an incredibly hard job is politely going on how great it was to meet the tremendous nerd who makes slideshows and can read a spreadsheet and he gets completely blown off with a "see ya" *click*

[@jnlsportsnewsandupdatesjsn5614]

can we just have a meeting of the minds with Zack Hample, Foolish Bailey, Fuzzy, Trevor Bauer, GiraffeNeckMarc, Jomboy and Jake as well as Ryan Ruocco and CC Sabathia and just all sit down at a damn table and talk about baseball. And then kick Marc out when he only talks about the mets.

[@derkaiserzen]

Kick Marc out and put Mike Antonelli on the lineup

[@jnlsportsnewsandupdatesjsn5614]

yes

[@SheepofChrist818]
