Being at that cycle game live was something I'll never forget...incredible!!!

[@heavenlydayful]

That’s awesome

[@leerollins7555]

dude jealous. that's awesome

[@emerdudeman]

yooo i was there too

[@JHL8810]

my friend was there too

[@derrickjohn411]

I was there too! As soon as he hit the last one, I was begging him to go for 3. When I slid in basically right in front of me at 3rd, I lost my ever-loving mind!!

[@fw.losfrfr]

For this to be a rookie season is actually insane

[@FocusOnThePie]

oh my god this could revive MLB

[@vtuberdoodles]

this video made me, girl from hong kong who has had no contact with baseball in my entire life, a fan. never touched or seen a game in my life, not a sports fan in general, didn't understand anything when i first watched this. now i'm deep into following the sport, learning the terminology and history, 4 months into a fixation on something that i would've never thought i'd like at all. it's honestly really fun :D

[@sirtophamhatt3532]

i grew up playing and watching baseball but went about 10 years without doing either. when elly started playing though, baseball became one of my favorite sports again. he’s had a similar effect on both of us!

John sadak is the future of reds announcing. Hopefully for many years to come. That call for elly first hr was cracked

[@EE-bg1de]

That 99 Elly Cycle Card was the Best card of MLB the Show 23'.

[@Willthethrll29]

I pulled it… too bad it was a week before 24 came out

[@TheSuperiorLord-_-]

Yea I pulled that as well. My friend said lemme borrow your ps5 cause he thought I was lucky 😂💀, after I pulled that

[@michaeldeierhoi4096]

De La Cruz is something special. Hits home runs often, steals bases at will and is an exceptional infielder!! He does it all!!

[@ShrekGuyYT]

Not to mention his speed

[@AceX22]

Him and Oneil Cruz are ridiculously talented and if they can get the hitting down they are gonna tear up the league

[@arandomdudewithhobbies3318]

He just has to stop swinging. as long as learns patience, he will become one of the best.

[@AceX22]

@@arandomdudewithhobbies3318 yea that’s what I’m saying they just need to get used to the Major League & I think they’ll become great players because they have everything else

[@KanetsuguNaoe1112]

[@paulharrald8687]

On my way.

[@jkarnij]

Literally my favorite player in baseball since he showed up. 60+ steals coming this season and 30+ HR.

[@eLiAn-te3bg]

“That ball had a family!” Best quote ever

[@Eastsidexassassin]

Say what you want. But this guy is single handedly making baseball great again

[@rjflo409]

It's a CYCLE!! Has to be one of the best calls 🤟🏽 Stros fan!

[@Virsu]

I love the delivery on "THAT BALL HAD A FAMILY"

[@rawbones4117]

Crazy cycle, too. Yknow, most of the time, you get a triple out of the way early and then go for the cycle. Nah. He saved it for last.

[@Ariaga_II]

“Oh goodness. That ball had a family”. That was a great call

[@kaikai7786]

I'm deffo going to be watching more of the reds and Elly now, I'm with the reds on mlb the show, but jeez the man is lightning

[@NOMOone]

This is the most dangerous player in MLB. Will break many records.

[@ShadyLoPe]

To hit that perfectly placed change up for that triple is insane wow

still don't get why they didn't give rookie of the year to this man, insane

[@paulkane7771]

This kid is insanely talented. Will be fun to watch for the next 15 to 20 years.

[@Torange-ft6fw]

He’s only 21, he will be in the league for another 10-20 years unless he turns into Aronn Donald

[@VintageYakyu]

"This guy,......this guy's a STAR!"

[@TheFacelessStoryMaker]

I hope we keep him on the roster for a while. He's only going to get better.

[@Anthony-zn4gs]

Facts he struggled a bit but it was good that the reds never sent him down for he can learn what the big leagues are.

[@KanetsuguNaoe1112]

Based on the number of views of his videos, he gets less attention than Ohtani's puppy, but your list must be interesting.😮

[@averagepufferfish5612]

@@KanetsuguNaoe1112Ohtani has the whole country of Japan on his shoulders so you can expect Shohei’s numbers to inflate

MAN!!! The Reds are so fricken lucky after all that bad luck I cannot believe how great this kid is!!!

[@lloydhenderson1456]

True ,he may not br the best hitter but i admit,same time he brings excitement to the game which in my opinion is good for MLB

Went to a Red Sox Reds game this past weekend to see my Sox and De La Cruz play. Dude is special.

A player with a passion for the game and talent off the charts. Hard to believe this is his rookie season video.

[@nickarnold3525]

1. The Reds play by play announcer is really good. 2. Enjoy him while you can, in 4 years the Dodgers will give him a billion dollars. 3. This kid has insane talent.

[@Peter-mf6gh]

My favorite Mlb player, God bless him 🙏💪🦵⚾️🙌

[@user-sv5zo1pr3g]

Just pulled his RC Card. Epic!!

[@wascarmart9877]

Has a lot of talent. If he trains harder before starting the 2024 season, he will stand out quite a bit in the new season.

[@tateflorell2751]

Also props to him to learn English on purpose and quickly. He said,” if my fans speak English I should speak English too.” He didn’t have to but he did. He wants to be a cover play for the mlb. So smart to learn English and do some short interviews in full English.

[@cute_nana23]

A Monster .

[@kbquan]

Being a switch hitter makes it so difficult to pitch to him. You're not walking him, cause that's like giving a triple. He's insane.

[@iamgoated848]

Elly had such great season. Team was amazing the start of the season. Just could not finish the end. So excited for next season

[@Zack-bl1cw]

He had a 89 OPS+. That is not a great season lmao

[@wink_butterdog]

@@Zack-bl1cw yea he is extremely overrated

[@tateflorell2751]

If I was the reds I would be looking at anyway possible to buy a big name star, top 5 pitcher, and sure up the bullpen. Just to surround this guy with talent. Bc we have a Mike trout situation on our hands. I hope the reds are more willing to spend money for this kid. Trouts story reads like a Greek tragedy. Plz give Cruz a team.

Dunno much about baseball. But elly has tremendous explosive reaction. He is gifted i wish badeball would be more risky

[@bler1890]

You almost hope he doesn’t hit it out so you can see him hustle around the bases.

[@ddogegaming8031]

I was at that game where Corbin tried for home

[@Peppy11769]

Started off hot. Nothing yet shows me superstar

[@CatholicBaseball8]

These announcers are really good. I agree he is a good ballplayer and hits some hard shots but he was on pace for 200 k's. Bo Naylor had better stats with 200 less plate appearances. While Cruz is fun to watch there are better hitters out there.

[@CosmicStar3]

IMO i agree that he isn’t really a good hitter, but he is just a rookie. But I have to say that he is more fun to watch than some other players

[@pepesupreme6451]

He showed us what he's capable of, just gotta be patient and see his growth

[@gracgxy1357]

Y’all realize that at 6:40 he got so bored of hitting normally that he hit righty?

[@melvinholbrook9735]

Wow

[@lukewormholes5388]
