The Real MoneyBall

[ohmah70]

I was there not far from where the ball was hit...i will never forget that night

[maxstreamification]

For a bit more I would get Chad Michael Murray to play the role of Hatteberg

[56FARTMASTER]

was that the actual hit

[piedrasyluz]

@56FARTMASTER Yup. 

[johnnyjm11]

[ThePelican33pictures]

Great moment... Thanks for posting.

[jasmith27]

I've never seen that stadium so packed unless it's a raider game

[EnzoScifo]

Came after here watching Moneyball, and although I don't know anything about baseball, I think this historical event is really cool. Good luck for the future! Greetings from Sweden.

[SJSharksSCC]

@EnzoScifo Yeah Douglas Murray is a badass!

[LitongX1]

Watched moneyball and this is AMAZING I think you should be proud as any sport fan is on his favourite team.

[KUNTIDA14]

[chargers705]

I'm surprised someone had this good of video quality back then.

[piedrasyluz]

@chargers705 - funny you mention that - I was in the upper most deck in far right field, and had the camera zoomed all the way in. The quality on the actual mini-DV tape is much much better, but I had to condense it to get it onto YouTube.

[doomsy]

@chargers705 lol back then in 02? wasn't that long ago

[xradio86]

@chargers705 well cameras were good its the conversion to internet that turn video to shit mostly

[LonghornTX1012]

It's weird seeing that stadium full.

[piedrasyluz]

@LonghornTX1012 - I know right?

[GiveADogABohnel5]

@piedrasyluz well when you're going for the record... but that was a shot, considering how deep that area of the outfield is and hatte hit it all the way up to the seats

[IamLukeSilz92]

@LonghornTX1012 yeah they should sell upper deck seats again what a waste...

[whitenect]

Crazy u got all that!

[piedrasyluz]

@whitenect - The tape is actually about a half hour long, but I edited for quality's sake. The ensuing celebration in the stadium is crazy...maybe I'll post it later.

[makisunn]

I know steven soderbergh wanted a docu super accurate film version of moneyball but anybody can go online for total accuracy. The hollywood formula to make moneyball accessible to people outside of baseball was right on the money. This video is now at 12k viewers I think it'll get to 120k by Feb. Credit should go to the Sony execs who did a moneyball move of their own when they traded directors and writers 5 days before shooting. Talk about inspired. Merry Christmas!

[makisunn]

Saw the movie, hit pause at the crack, remembered the news coverage and went straight here. WOW. \m/ \m/

[Manakaiser]

wow man i watched the movie 10 min ago, while watching it i didnt realised it was actually that much of a true story. Awesome moment in baseball. anyone knows if the record of 20 consec has been broken alrdy?

[riaiaikido1]

@Manakaiser Still intact for AL according to wikipedia.

[QueSwanson]

@Manakaiser Probably never will happen again. Well, maybe on video games :-)

[RocksOff1039]

why can't the Red Sox get players like that?

[elchatodeoro1]

that game wasn't showed on tv?

[joshrocks11]

@elchatodeoro1 It was. I watched it. I remember.

[gramnet]

[kanervatie]
