My favorite moment from Bumgarner was in the 2014 Wild Card game. He was well on his way to a complete game 8-0 shutout. But at the same time he went 0-4 at the plate and on his last an-bat (a swing and miss strikeout) he started shouting "DAMMIT, FUCK!" before he had even finished his swing.

Nolan Ryan -- 107+ MPH fastball, and won several fights in games vs batters. 3. Josh Gibson -- Would Knock down his own mother with a high fastball to get an out. He scared everyone. Many debate Nolan's fastball and Bob fellers. But recall that Bob threw 99 MPH as it crossed the plate, which would've been 107 MPH out of the hand where modern pitchers are measured. Nolan threw 101 MPH at the plate, which would be over 108. Hank Aaron said that he had to go up there guessing against Ryan because the ball was so fast , all he could do was hear it go by sometimes.

As a Dodger fan I have no love for Mad Bum but I recognize that he is one of the best pitchers to have ever played in the MLB. Year after year he brought his best stuff to SF and lead them with the while thing three times. Got to respect a guy like that! He might behave like a boomer but he is actually a Millennial.

[@mattcroft]

The goddamn rabbit story shifts this guy from sort of a looney toon to an Absolute Chad

[@WillsKing]

Not sure if it was a typo in the script, but: 2013-16 he hit 12 HR in 325 PA; Once per 27 PA. For context, Bonds 2001 season was one every 9 PA.

[@MrCubsfan3]

I *thought* that seemed a bit too good lol

[@Cc75757]

Just looked in baseball reference. It’s actually a little more impressive. Although he didn’t have any homers in 2013, he had 12 in 2014-2016. 256 PA so once per 21.

[@mclaughlinja1995]

Yeah, I noticed that too - no one in baseball history averaged a HR every 5.4 plate appearances for any extended period of time. Still a really good hitter for a pitcher.

[@sickofitall8486]

I recall, in the same year, Deadspin thought MadBum was the shit, and that Yordano Ventura was the "surliest little shit" in baseball. Deadspin cited the staredown with West as the reason they thought he was a "bad baseball man." Deadspin just projects, and deflect their own biases. It was great to see Terry Bolea take them down. And I got no issue with MadBum. Guy is your traditional red-assed, old school baseballer. And one of the best post-season pitchers of all time.

[@bv6377]

sounds about right w deadspin

[@tommyfu9271]

ventura went head hunting all the time. There's a huge difference b/w that and MB cursing guys out and wanting to fight. It's not even close to the same thing.

[@becksteadmtb]

Even though he’s with the D-Backs now, he’s still my favorite pitcher. Maybe he get trader back to the Giants to help then with their postseason run this year.

Your channel is one of the top dogs for baseball fans on YT. Keep them coming FOREVER!

he’s just so easy to hate and that’s why i love him

I love to hate him. The sport is better with personalities whether they’re fun loving guys or total asses.

Bro you're awesome man. Madbum is one of my favorite pitchers

[@xwingvalet5267]

this was highly entertaining....thank you. Oh and Im a die hard Detroit Tigers fan and can safely say MadBums dominance in the 2012 WS is something Ill never forget. The Tigers had just swept the Yankees and i was hoping to see them at least compete. Instead they got embarrassed , swept and Madbum was literally untouchable.....

[@RoemDaug]

This channel is so special to me, because it manages to do something incredible: make me care about baseball. Never once in my life have I ever been intrigued about baseball, at least not until I stumbled across this channel. Something about the way you tell stories is so captivating and approachable.

[@MarkoMagic]

i know right? im a basketball and football guy but this channel never struggles to make baseball seem appealing. there are some absolute batshit stories this channel has covered

Mad Bum is now my favorite pitcher. Dude is a menace on the mound we need more of this weather you like it or not it’s just fun to watch.

[@ESPINOZA316]

We need more of pitchers acting like pussies? OK 😆

[@actioninmyphannypack]

His wife is amazing. Catching an MLB pitcher’s stuff is so hard to do, but she’s just doing it on the regular

[@cobyerickson3573]

Anyone else notice him re-upping on the spider tack after the Puig homer at 14:16 lmao

[@csjbeans]

I just saw that too bro

[@ywamdan408]

wow this guy's storytelling is unreal, I don't even like baseball that much but I can't stop watching these videos

[@kellymcentee7172]

We need these guys now more than ever! I appreciate when athletes are passionate and even completely psycho. Thanks for letting me share my opinion. Carry on.

[@smartacus1367]

This man is so inspirational, I kinda like how he is all intense about everything and that is who I aspire to be

[@jonhohensee3258]

It's fine to be intense. Being a jerk is not.

[@Battleborn357]

He's gotta be the one of, if not the greatest clutch post season pitcher of all time. Once the playoffs came, he turned a switch. It was great watching him finally bring a chip to San Fran. and adding 2 more to boot. The 7 game series against the Royals cemented his legacy

[@RapIsDeadly]

Joe West laughing at Bum was one of the funniest things I ever saw!! lmao

[@tyrk1589]

love madbum. zero problems with his intensity on the mound, randy johnson was the same way.

That rabbit deserves a Medal of Honor. They also need to sign his wife as an mlb catcher.

Spoiler: He chugged 4 beers at once.

He’s basically the kind of dude who prides himself in being an “old man” at age 26 and it’s amazing

[@nathanpower4987]

hes prob the best baseball channel

[@brodycarroll1534]

Madison Bumgarner is from my hometown. Met him at a Mexican restaurant that he frequently visits. Really humble guy. He lives like 2 mins from me. Hometown hero.

[@05weasel]

“Almost everyone’s last name is Bumgarner” ah, good ole Hickory.

[@RicGrylls]

small town with generations of bumgarners and they're not related? Somehow doubt that 🤣

[@austinholscher6346]

Love the videos my man. I’d love to get to know more about the greats like pujols bonds or Mariano Rivera and how long does it take to make such a great video like these?

[@drdirtbag2137]

I Love MadBum He Is The Greatest Postseason Pitcher, He Saved The Giants He’s A Legend

[@yowhadduptho]

My wife’s dad has the property across from Madison’s farm. He’s producing wagyu beef cattle and is opening some sort of…meat store(?) in downtown Lenoir. I played against him regularly in high school, it was like little leaguers against a grown man. He’s just a different specimen of athlete. I didn’t know him but pretended to disliked him out of my own self interest. We all did it - sure we secretly respected the shit out of him for throwing near 90 at us in HS, but young man’s pride and jealousy won out. These days I’m proud he’s a hometown hero.

[@jealousyxanderblood7894]

PLEASE do a video on the Philles when they had the four aces- Roy oswalt, Roy halladay, cliff lee, and cole hamels. That kind of pitching rotation is unreal and probably will never happen again

[@fromulus]

*He poured 6 beers on his face with his mouth open

[@molon___labe]

Love him or hate him dude single handedly put the giants on his back in the 2014 world series. Oh yeah also has a 0.2 era in the world series with almost 40 world series innings pitched. Sorry one last thing he has more rings than the dodgers have in the last 40 years.

[@LoneWolfBrian]

I used to think he was just a legit grump on the mound and outside the field but it turns out yeah he is but he’s also a badass charismatic dude. New found respect for this guy

[@kylewright8512]

@0:56 umm… I’m not a Madbum fan but that was a Joe West instigation that Madison didn’t back down from.

[@NIghthorseGrows]

Him: 19 HR 2x as much as any other active pitcher Mr Ohtani:🤦

[@SweatLord21]

Big Fly Ohtani-San

[@nathanchildress5596]

No doubt Ohtani is a better hitter, but it was so special watching Madbum hit. I remember when Posey and Bumgarner both hit grand slams in the same game!

[@tommyfu9271]

if you want to get technical ohtani has 2 homers while pitching

[@csgoat968]

I’m kind of a lowkey baseball fan, I live near Toronto so there’s always that little bit of love for the Jays but the more I watch these videos the more the name of this channel makes sense to me
