The INSANE Prime of Craig Biggio

Craig Biggio holds a record that might never be broken! He is one of the best baseball players from the 1990s, and his Hall of Fame career will blow your mind. The real question is how come we don’t talk about this guy more? Well, he played all 20 years of his big league career with the Houston Astros, and they would make the postseason in just 6 of those seasons. Unfortunately, Craig Biggio never got a World Series ring. I bring this up early because to truly appreciate Craig Biggio, you have to realize his loyalty to the city of Houston was priority number one. The fans loved him, and Biggio was an excellent example of what hustle looks like, to his teammates and opposing players.

Biggio is a shining example of how someone should play the game. Always looking to help the team. Moved from catcher to 2B to outfield. He tore out of the box whether he slammed a ball into the gap or trickled one out to the pitcher. He was always respectful, and he did everything he could to win a championship. Unfortunately the Astros couldn't ever get that done for him. The Astros during his tenure were always up against a higher payroll and higher market team. He may not have ever performed the best in the playoffs, but he was also facing the braves 3 headed monster almost every year. In 2005 he did everything he could to get us there. He was the consummate professional. Miss ya Craig. You're the man. Thanks for the trip down memory lane and I would like to say thank you for giving him the recognition that he deserves.

[@Cam23]

Your analysis is exactly why I made this video! Great example and student of the game, looking to do whatever possible to help the team win. And thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the video.

[@bobbleheadbob]

Loved his effort and watching him as a kid, he was a great role model for the city. It's a shame he never got a chance to win a WS as a player, but at least got the chance before the sunset on his career. He is still with the organization now and serves in an advisory role. I was lucky enough to be there for his 3k hit night, unlucky enough to be there for game 4 in 2005. Astros fans are blessed to have Altuve fill his shoes and have the same mentality.

[@g-mancollections5264]

I met Craig Biggio at a motocross store in Sugarland right after their trip to the WS in 2005. He was one of the coolest people you could have ever meet. He was really genuine, and you could tell losing that WS hurt him because he wanted it for the City of Houston. He loves Houston and we Astros fan that grew up watching Biggio since he came in the league appreciate his great play and motivation and hustle every day, he played and the way he cares about beloved City. Thanks Craig.

[@zqrahll]

The way he moved from Catcher to 2B was pretty cool, but he was still young at the time. Then moving to CF at 37 years old is amazing.

[@carlpacquing2575]

That sounds crazy to move to CF at that age!

[@notsauer]

I remember one year, we had the heaviest outfield in baseball with Lance Berkman, Richard Hidalgo, and Daryle Ward. We sign Jeff Kent and it only makes sense that Biggio moves to CF

[@hereliesthedwarf]

Fun fact, Biggio won the Hansen Award as the top football player in Suffolk County, and fellow Long Islander and former NFL MVP Boomer Esiason won the Carl Yastrzemski Award as Suffolk's best baseball player.

You have to remember who the Astros played in the postseason and then You can see why Biggio struggled. The Big Three was a trio of Major League Baseball starting pitchers for the Atlanta Braves from 1993 to 2002 which consisted of Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine, and John Smoltz. The Big Three combined to win seven National League Cy Young Awards in the 1990s

[@MrBmick79]

my first MLB game was in 4th grade at the Astrodome. We went to see Astros vs Pirates. Craig Biggio was still catching and the starting 2nd baseman, Bill Doran had the game winning RBI

[@hindsightcapital2021]

I grew up in kings park. Unfortunately biggio never came back to visit. He donated some money for a baseball field and a scoreboard and the funds were misappropriated. Still cool seeing his Jersey every morning

[@civilwarwasaninsidejob7405]

Paul Molitor video would be cool! Insane consistency and incredibly underrated on the all time 3rd basemen discussions.

[@SmoothCriminal12]

And without some injuries that lost him chunks of time in the 80s, he very well could've challenged for 4K hits.

[@cedricgist7614]

Agreed. Molitor came to mind as I watched this profile of Biggio and his transitions to other positions. The book, "Nine Innings," covers how Molitor came up as a shortstop with the Brewers - only to have future-Hall-of-Famer, Robin Young, already established there; then, shifts to second base and centerfield (with injuries); finally, moving to third base before a long stint as a DH. Great story. You know, we can cite injuries - as with Pete Reiser and Mickey Mantle - or military service - as with Ted Williams and Bob Feller - as unfortunate circumstances that prevented such gifted athletes from having full careers and producing the numbers we speculate they might have achieved. I do that often. Then, I remember how blessed they were to perform at the highest level for any length of time - and how blessed we've been to have them come our way.

[@northstarjakobs]

As a Minnesotan, I second this! Even though he only played for the Twins at the tail end of his career and spent most of his career across the St. Croix, he's still one of us and a damn good player.

[@GilesMcRiker]

I was a Montreal Expos fan and in the beginning of his career, Biggio and the Astros in general, played a similar style of game, ie a classically National League style that emphasized base -running and pitching vs power hitting that was more common in the American League. However, at some point Biggio morphed from a speedy infielder into an all-around superstar

[@MrBmick79]

I missed the old National League rules. I may sound like an old fossil, but to me, I found nothing wrong with the old two division format and four team championship series. Baseball felt perfect up until 1994.

Craig would stop after every single game and he wouldn't leave until every single kid that was there waiting got an autograph. An absolute legend for Houston and class act all around.

Bill James loved Craig Biggio, besides his good to great traditional stats while playing up the middle Biggio had the hidden advantage of frequently getting Hit By Pitch (does not count as a walk) & not Grounding Into Double Plays (2 outs from 1 Plate Appearance, rarely mentioned as a stat)... the combination of the two improves Biggio's run production compared to other players but is rarely mentioned... fax!!!

As a lifetime Houston Astros fan I can truly say Biggio and Bagwell truly taught me what loyalty really means because they were owed so much more while they were here. One of my favorite stories I've heard about Biggio came from Lance Berkman and when she talked about a game that we were down by 10 runs going into the 8th inning everybody was dejected and defeated in the dugout and ready to move on to the next game. When video came in from the field and said the game's not over, they scored seven runs in one inning we can do the same. Let's come back and beat these guys and that's exactly what we did. That kind of heart can't be taught it has to be instilled in you at a young age and I appreciate every moment he gave us Astros fans. Jeff Bagwell was the reason why I played baseball to begin with but Craig Biggio is a reason why I became a second baseman I respect these two men greatly and I'm in awe that I get to live in again with Jose Altuve and hope He plays his whole career with us as did Biggio and Bagwell.

I grew up watch Biggio play, I went to my first game to watch him in diapers. Watching him play, humble, committed, and loyal, made me love the game. It was so Biggio that he tried to stretch his 3000th into a double.

I appreciate your enthusiasm when commentating on the players in question as well as your knowledge of what they did. You have earned a subscriber. All my best to you. EDIT- remember, also, that Biggio put those stellar numbers together in the beginning of his career while playjng half of his games in the Houston Astrodome. That park was a big-time pitcher's park. This makes his numbers even more impressed, although the stats like OPS+ and WAR bring that out.

Before i even watch the video, alot of great talent has came and gone but this hands down is my favorite player on and off the field. Now im finna watch it 🍿

I actually got my first dog from one of his events, my pops won him at the auction and we didn’t know what to name him (also bc I was 7 years old at the time) so we named him biggio. He was a black lab and was just as loyal and impactful as Craig biggio was. Biggio’s (my dog) birthday was also a day before my own so it was like he grew up with me. He lived for 13 years and it still feels like it was yesterday.🖤🐾 back then I never liked or understood baseball but here I am binging baseball content that I lowkey wished I had picked up a bat instead of dribbling a ball lol . Life really comes at you fast truly.

The reason why I started watching baseball

[@jeremylangston5422]

Underrated, in the mainstream because he played here in Houston.

[@johnshoemaker234]

You're getting very good at editing bro. Mad props for all of these fire videos

[@Cam23]

Thank you! Believe me it’s something that’s taken a LOT of trial and error 🤣

[@misstahj5651]

As a wee lad I was in the crawford boxes at the game where they had an appreciation ceremony for Biggio in his final season. He hit an absolute laser about 15 feet from me. Something I'll never forget.

I would love if you made a video about Jim Abbott. Not only did he have his famous no-hitter, but he also ended his career with a 99 ERA+. Making him a league average pitcher, WITH ONLY ONE HAND

[@chrisshergie1030]

abbott would be a good one

[@ethanniedorowski116]

He is slightly below average.... Jim abbot knows a sometimes the truth hurts an you can't change what is real.. I'm somewhat surprised to see the numbers arnt better he had a good feel for pitching an pretty quality stuff

[@Damuthafuccka]

Thanks for picking one of my suggestions, but I would still like to see a video on Bob Welch and Dave Stewart.

[@symetz]

Awesome job. Craig is my all time favorite Astro. 20 years and I saw him play so many times. Always hustles. One time he hit a very high popup just outside the infield. The fielder settles under the ball and somehow misjudges it. The fielder picks the ball up right away and Craig had just slid into 2nd.😂😂 Dude was 100% all the time. I love that kind of player.

[@Cam23]

That’s wild! 😂

[@prestonpohl]

Biggio is the man. Watched him my entire life. My family has had season tickets to the Astros since 92. He’s literally my hero lol. Bagwell too.

[@Cam23]

That era of Astros baseball has been really fun to learn about. I can't wait to do my vid on Bagwell to complete that dynamic duo!

[@prestonpohl]

@@Cam23 pkg please do. Do the original Killer B’s. I had the poster in my room. I’ve been playing MLB the show and watching all your videos for like 2 days. Love it.

[@Cam23]

@@prestonpohl I'm glad you're enjoying the videos! Killer B's all deserve their own vids 💯

[@Mma-basement-215]

Dude this is awesome content love the channel Please Mike Schmidt next

[@Zevonfan524]

Nothing will sum up Biggio better than trying to stretch 3,000 into a double. I was watching that game & when the camera cut to him rounding first, I was less surprised than waking up to the sky being blue lol

[@bigeric1030]

The only player in MLB history to make an out on his 3,000th hit.
