Yasiel Puig's impressive debut week

[@charleswoods875]

I was playing travel ball for a team in LA during this week and during practice every night we’d all talk about how insane bro was What a time

[@DZMRKZ]

What a time

[@lulurose3772]

I still remember when Puig tossed me a ball during spring training, waved hi during a game, and waved again during a different game. I loved the dodgers so much more because of his love for the fans and the game. He will always be a dodger! I’ll always be a fan of Puig. #PuigYourFriend 😢

I have no idea why people dislike Vin Scully. He's a legend. He is by far my favorite announcer because of the fact that he's not loud and annoying. But at the sametime he shows a good amount of emotion in clutch situations of a game. And he gives a vivid image of what's happening.

[@luisrosales9349]

Baseball Fanatic. His way of commentating a game has been the same since like the 60's. Nothing wrong with that, I like it. but some people might not prefer an old school announcer like Scully. They prefer Joe buck and other commentators.

[@LightTowerStowers]

Anyone who dislike Scully is a fucking twat.

[@blink182fab55]

I loved watching games Scully called. In an interview he said he just calls the play and shuts up and lets the crowd speak or something along those lines. A good roar of a crowd especially in the postseason gives me chills so I hate Joe Buck being an ass and screaming over it.

[@lejackpot]

HE is the GOAT of Base Announcing.. A TRUE LEGEND. I always love and enjoy watching his style of his commentating.

[@Beast_1996]

Baseball Fanatic anyone who dislike Vin Scully is a Joe Buck fan

[@evander1224]

4 home runs 10 Runs Batted In 2 Great Throws in a week. For a rookie that's amazing

[@bushwxcker540]

You got it wrong. That's great for any MLB player.

[@suanymateo8185]

+Funny Moments and Videos cough cough he said rookie, detective.

[@ItzzLionn]

+Suany Mateo he said rookie yes but he is right that's great for any mlb player not just a rookie

[@d.dawg1]

Not to mention a grand slam

[@PunkinRB]

it's gotta be one of the top 1st week (or even month) debuts in mlb history

[@urge3v]

Most insane debut ever. Everyone was talking about him. You’d watch every game just to see what he would do that night. Not that I expected him to keep that pace up, no one could. Still its crazy to think he’s already out of the league. Memorable career for sure though.

[@MrAlvin714]

His attitude sadly ... but me I liked the fiery and attitude in him ... backed up his teammates didn't take bs ... played his heart out no doubt .

[@DrLongSchIong]

That was one of the best weeks of my life, watching him play made me love baseball in a whole new way.

[@itseddieelizalde1974]

Even if you aren't a Dodgers Fan, you have to admit that he had an insane first week, that probably got the Dodgers into the playoffs

[@Dom213]

He turned the dodgers season around. I remember being in Palm Springs and people who obviously didn’t care about baseball stopped to watch him bat. They went 42-8 after his call up.

[@Dom213]

@Boe O He was the catalyst for the past 8 years.

[@Boosted_papi]

We went 42-8 in that run

[@arodmemes1888]

I still miss him

[@imaniwjwright4362]

I remember being amazed by this dude. I was 15 years old at the time and playing Center field for my high school. Added a lot of motivation to my workouts watching this dude play.

[@MultiMaddenbeast]

Everyone hating on the great Vin Scully need to know that baseball is his life he loves the game and the game loves him he may not jump out of his chair screaming but he lets you hear the crowd noise and the players he lets you enjoy what the great game of baseball is really about. Vin Scully is the greatest announcer to ever live and Frankly it isnt even an arguement

[@kicksapien1335]

My boy Dave Niehaus was pretty special

[@FBIStatMajor]

In hindsight he was the most important dodger of the past decade. People forget the dodgers were close to blowing up the nucleus of the team until he came up. He literally altered an entire teams trajectory with how he played in June 2013

[@kujo7912]

Pepperidge farms remembers

[@ch3fbo1rd3e2]

you know if scully says he "doesn't believe it" when he's seen it all you're doing unbelievable

[@zaydozier]

The roar of the crowd is so amazing

[@armanboghossian3321]

+Antonio DelQuan That's what an almost always 45,000+ crowd in the biggest stadium in the league gets you

[@jlruiz7634]

Only at Dodger stadium. Most fans every year

[@ajm469]

Look how big he is now compared to then. He still a beast

[@CChan18]

That's what I was thinking

[@konnerforbis]

+Carter Chandler yo I watch your vids

[@anthonymccomack]

Puig we love you, you once threw my young daughter and I a foul ball during a spring training game. I will never forget how excited she was, she didn't stop smiling for a week. Viva Cuba, Viva Puig!

[@kujo7912]

She just told us actually lol that’s pretty neat

[@diegocarvajal6121]

I'm not even a Dodgers fan, yet I freaking love this video every time I see it. Regardless of what you think of Puig, this stretch was badass.

[@RDiaz187]

I was dreaming to think that they would've kept him in that uniform forever, I'm gonna miss the hell outta him.

[@ArmorofGod610]

Gonna miss you in Dodger Blue 😢😢😢

[@clickbaitjr3390]

Me too

[@j.valencia3274]

Hey atleast he spent his career with us 🤷 had so much more to him but didn't reach his full potential unfortunately

[@joeflores8062]

Hopefully he signs with somebody then has a great season and then comes back here

[@timtalks6080]

My dad took me to the game where Puig hit his two first homers. His career might not have worked out as many would have hoped, but he’ll always be one of my personal favorite Dodgers of all time for the memories he gave me.💙

[@MM-qi5mk]

He lit the baseball world on fire this week. It was such a pleasure to watch live !

[@weekendkings9621]

I'll always remember Puig

[@MIGGIE611]

VINCE SCULLY is a LEGEND!! if you think he is boring then you really haven't heard him call a game... while other play by play guys fill your airwaves with dead space VIN is busy giving you an insight into the player who is up to bat... he has millions and millions of stories to tell all while calling a game... i have not heard anyone else do that till this day #GODODGERS

[@knoxbox1212]

For people who call Puig a show boat, look at him sprint out of his stance after every hit. He had to slow down so he wouldn't pass up Hanley on one of 'em.

[@bumsergeant]

Players are expected to sprint out of their stances on base hits, but not no-doubt homers. If you're using a base hit from Puig as an example, that makes no sense. Of course he's gonna sprint after a base hit

[@knoxbox1212]

Keenan Ahmad he sprints on ground balls. He has so many infiels singles. I'm tired of watching players jog to first base just because they hit an infield ground ball. Puig may not make the smartest plays, but he hustles

[@bluescreenright]

+Keenan Ahmad really? I don't see Bryce eager to start running to first base.

[@bumsergeant]

+Gaddi Moreno so true

[@bumsergeant]

Jonathan Ramirez of course not kids will be kids

[@PhilipJames69]

For Vin Scully to say I don't Believe It will be the best compliment Puig will ever receive because Vin Scully has seen it all. Puig will be back with a vengeance no question in the playoffs

[@bobbydylanio]

+Philip Jams Well not the playoffs but next year hopefully.

[@noahstrand9069]

Not a dodgers fan, but I have watched this video a million times.

This opening week is by far one of the best I've ever seen.....

[@ricardoalexiszuniga5423]

Rest Peacefully Legend 💙

[@jordanalberto5550]

Everybody! Vin Scully has been calling games since the time of Jackie Robinson! Do you even know who he is? I'm guessing you guys have never seen a Dodger game before. He is a legend. Like you can even do that. He called Kirk Gibson, and many football and baseball games. He's not just like another announcer.

[@97omar100]

vin scully one of best announcers in sports history

[@Jx2sick]

There is a reason why there is an award named after him!

[@lynn_2780]

I hope he continues on his path of success this year. He has started off hot, barring injuries he will be elite this year. LA LOVES PUIG.

[@thischannelisnolongeractive.]

i'll never forget this stretch of baseball, watched the whole thing with my dad. great memories, nothin but love for the 2013 squad

[@robinrahmani4705]

It’s disheartening to see that Puig did not continue to flourish into one of the greats. That first season, he displayed all the makings of a player destined for a remarkable carrier as a MLB player.

[@userac-xpg]

he lacked the motivation and/or the work ethic. He could have been an all time great.

[@tomriddle8699]

The motivation was there. However telling a 23 YO kid to slow it down, this is how we do it, let's play smart can hurt his mindset on the gm. He played freely but it was with good intentions. U can see the hustle every time he hit a hr how he round home plate in secs. While everyone is lolly gagging. He made baseball fun at a time we had highest payroll & losing b4 he showed up.

[@sportbeast218]

THAT'S MY BOY!

[@kobyschechter8163]

2:38. What a catch by the fan!! That’s one he’ll remember forever.

[@angle5008]

I remember seeing his first throw on live tv it was special that night

[@DRWRITER08]

This is why I love baseball. I'm a mets fan but watching this makes you appreciate talent and grace the game of baseball.

[@kingjoker5309]

i hope he has a long career look forward to seeing this kid play ball !!!!!!!!

[@lilmondo_2497]

Dang this kid as a great future ahead of him and he's a bleed dodger blue and white

[@JoseOrozco_1]

There was so much hope in what we saw that year from Yasi, goddamn what could’ve been. Can’t blame a man though, who goes from having holes in his zapatos to being a big star in a city like LA. Could’ve been that electric for at least 10 years.

[@jfrmdasip]

[@eliasmartinezjr.6517]

Of all the great players and people who have ever been a part of the Dodgers organization, Vin Scully is by far my favorite. Easily, the greatest announcer I've ever heard. On the note of Puig, I really wish he could've sustained that level of skill. He might've been even more unstoppable then Trout. Might've.
