Hideki Matsui Getting his World Series ring on Angles Uniform

[JokaPlaya]

Now that's true love. It doesn't matter that he went to the Angels, the NY fans still loved him. The Yankees still loved him. And it won't matter if he ever plays again for NY or not, he's still forever etched in the collective memories as a NY Yankee.

[skwajin]

he is my hero

[TheWebbSean]

Do I need to explain the difference between an angle and an angel?

[nepatriots77]

@TheWebbSean lol

[TheWebbSean]

@nepatriots77

Perhaps he was touched by an isosceles triangle.

[mgp0001]

it must be nice playing for another team and still get respect from the fans and players!!!!

[Schwarze999]

I didn't see the ring on the uniform

[dinuccij]

HIDEKI SHOULD STILL BE A NYY

[javiersuarez15]

They actually gave him a plastic cheap ring as a prank and later gave him the real ring.... I feel that's a nice touch from the yankees

[starwarsyankeefan71]

@javiersuarez15 really!!!!???? if they did ...hahahahahahahahahaha

[AdamR702]

Matsui Thanks for clinching that ring for New York. Why they traded him I dont know but he is the reason they won that game

[makinbiscuits]

@AdamR702 They didn't trade him. He signed with the Angels as a free agent.

[Snickers5757]

why the people booing him

[dre3k78]

@Snickers5757 They aren't...they are prob chanting "Matsui"

[peterprince8]

他實力都還在阿 為何要交易走 真不懂洋基



[martintar1]

Thank you America.

[turbobenx]

no, it's angles. 

[shutthefupdonny]

ANGLES LOL

[rockymk16]

Yankees showed class

[funnyassvids1]

its ANGELS not angles

[DyLowJones]

He personified the qualities of a Yankee: hard work ethic, always suited & ready to help his team, he hustled on defense, was clutch on offense, and never made any noise to stir up bad press.  The consummate professional. Matsui, you long had my respect.

[MrPosada2]

Matsui is great !!!!

[thebigpapixl]

a class act,,on the yankees part..sweet,

[OCCFan023]

he should still be a yankee

[andreeasotoo]

@OCCFan023 He's still a yankee :D:D

[IamGenoBlack]

@OCCFan023 either he or damon could be back. Cashman is not done after sorting out the pitching.

[ConkeyCrack]

I was at this game! What a great moment that was! Matsui went on to hit a hr that game! I cheered the fuck outta him!

[yonpolite]

There should be a "SUPER LIKE BUTTON" for this kind of videos...

[VoorkJTV]

@whiteguy808 that's yankees fans for ya

[crazybaseballdude12]

@whiteguy808

they aren't booing....

[DeleteThisMF]

@whiteguy808 he got a huge standing ovation. Are you serious?

[SclafaniBagni]

One of the great ones!

[pokeher26]

that announcer didnt sound like the classic announcer at yankee stadium

[mikawhofan]

@pokeher26 Michael Kay? or the PA announcer? cuz the PA announcer Bob Sheppard retired in 2008 and passed away later that yr

[futurepotus2024]

this was a nice moment

[AwesomeBuddy12]

GO YANKEES!!! GIANTS SUCK ANGELS SUCK DODGERS SUCK A's SUCK

NY FTW!!!

[ELNENE000222]

GODZILLA! will forever live on in out hearts :)

[DanieINegreanu2424]

@junlac3855

Nice.. Lets have a heads up match my FTP name = kocron1739 =D

And yep

Ya might have heard people sharing on their FB wall that you should now sign up using the promo code AMERICAS @ the Full Tilt website.

It's a pretty amazing promotional deal. Your 1st deposit will be DOUBLED plus a few other important perks. Sadly only going work for the first 1500 players that create an account using it

[TheHaloRed]

The Yankees showed a lot of class congratulating Matsui like that.

[TeknikAlity34]

I Love the Angels, so you can see why I FUCKING HATE the skankees. I dont give a FUCK if Steinbrenber died, it does not change My hate toward them. They need to stop being money fucks and stop depending on their stupid salary cap.

[DJMT1287]

@TeknikAlity34 spoken like a true loser. Every team has the money the Yankees do, they just don't use it or put enough interest into pursuing the big names. That, well, and the players we sign just prefer coming to NY and competing for first place.

btw, how are those world series titles treating ya?

[TheTjay11]

@TeknikAlity34 wow spoke too soon, i know you wrote your hate about the yankees a year ago but now look whose spending big bucks!! every owner is very rich and the signing of Pujols and Wilson just proved it. along with other signings they did with their bullpen. dont jump to an excuse just because the yankees have a lot of money! other teams have plenty money to spend as well! just sayin'

[patm1969]

Makes me want to cry (man tears!) every time I see it!! Classy guy and a classy organization! You will always be a Yankee Matsui!

[jasonjung]

I think they did it in front of the LA Angels to make them feel bad.

[orlandoldr1]

why he left he was a great baseball player :[

[Lonewolf6190]

he didnt leave he was jus traded to LA because the yankees thought he was too old to play for them

[TheHaloRed]

@Lonewolf6190 He wasn't traded. He was a free agent and the Angels signed him.

[Kobegrl24]

He's a Angel now, but the Yanks can have him back!

[BarbaryPirates]

@Kobegrl24 I would love him back it was a travesty he got let go to the Angels. I don't disagree with why Matsui left, but I'm sure Cashman could eek out a couple million to keep our World Series Hero.

Either way he's one of my all-time favorite Yankees, and he'll never be forgotten in New York. I'm sure he's not paying for much in terms of meals in New York anyway!

The only other player to dominate a WS game for the Yanks like that is Reggie Jackson. That is saying a lot. <3 Matsui

[warren1990anaheimCA]

I am an angels fan but what a moment to be with the world series winner accepting such a welcome as a exmember of the winning team but a new member of the visiting team from the Alcs Game 2009 But the Angels Won 2 or the 3 times we played the yankees in The Alcs So Go Angles

[DazReht]

He'll always be a Yankee in my book.

[xFruitDragonx]

@DazReht

Exactly. No matter what, that man is a Yankee and I will always respect him.

[PaPiSaKiiLLa]

alright how do 19 people know what that means?

[soccerX1000]

should have gave him a 1 year extension.

[Raikaze]

@soccerX1000 right compared to signing johnson whos been on the DL since the beginning of the year.

[ru2118]

Yankees to the end.

[interruptTaylorSwift]

Say what you want about the Yankees, but the organization and the fans most certainly handled this occasion with class. Makes sense: classy reception for one of the classiest guys in baseball :) I still miss Matsui, I wish he was on the Yankees still, he's one of my favorite players :/

[SORATAK55]

Matsui's reception;

This is the most beautiful moment at the new stadium!

Thank you for uploading.

[BROKENTEAR18]

i love him ♥

[trekciento]

That is what i call , a honorable player

[Galactic123]

This vid puts into perspective the fact that pro baseball is about grown men playing a boy's game.

[MisterKwakkles]

Did Dideki have anything to do with Ishii-sans big "Unit 731" that used to play in the major majors? Japans Unit 731 sure was no joke.

[owhatarush]

That should of been the Phillies getting their rings.

[dannj347]

@owhatarush when hell freezes over again and when rollins learn to keep his predictions to himself...

[owhatarush]

@dannj347what are you saying? the phillies have possibly the best team in the league.

[RuleSeventySix]

@owhatarush In New York we smoke Phillies.

Sorry, Phillies winning would never happen.

[owhatarush]

@RuleSeventySix you're an idiot. you didn't sweep us or anything, yous won 4-2 in the series, and I believe the last time the yanks tried playing us yous lost 2 out of 3 games, so suck a hard one.

[RuleSeventySix]

@owhatarush I'm the idiot? I believe that title can go to Jimmy Rollins with this amazing quote: "Of course we're gonna win. If we're nice, we'll let it go six, but I'm thinking five, close it out at home."

[cameraboyqb8]

I love Hideki Matsui. I'm not a Yankee fan, but was rooting for the Yanks to win so that Deck could get a ring. He's what I call a "Railroad Conductor." Dek is in the kitchen with dinah, stumming on the old banjo, and singing: Fee Fi Fiddle-i-o, Deck is from the Far East so, he must play a mean banjo!

[p90590]

look how hard he's trying not to cry

[wildwolves8]

why letting him go,the yankees are so fucking full of cash.

[SteeBigBen7]

@wildwolves8 they didnt tarde him.the yanks didnt renew his contract

[unique770922]

戰場上拼的你死我活，下場後依然是朋友。感動！

[kkolympus410]

這就是運動家的精神!!

[LU29UN99]

HALL OF FAME SOON unless he uses sushi steroids or marijuana.

[johnnie5777]

MVP!

[raja773878]

感動阿，雖現在已是敵人，但現實中都還是好朋友阿^^

[kao0718]

雖說職業是現實的，但是也是有溫馨的一面！

[titino5959]

we will miss you matsui in this season

[aeight2001]

真是#%^#^#~沒想到洋基還安排這橋段!不過到哪都一樣，松­井還是日本英雄亞洲之光

[01allblacks1]

世界に対して「さあ見てくれ！コイツが我が国の飛び切りだ！」と­差し出せるのは

マツイだよ。他のプレーヤーのファンには申し訳ないが。

[smvv1]

快要cry了，哭哭，沒想到是這樣拿到戒指~

[ricewashere]

GODZILLA!!! forever a yankee..

[izaac88]

[citylover6790]

thats so sweet! <3 but i wish he was still a yankee player but he'll always be a yankee at heart! <3

[chinatown0712]

I still don't believe that he's not a yankee anymore. Master Clutch.

[3126569]

Pure class

[sooooperguy]

MATSUI = CLASS, he will forever be a Yankee.
