[applesauceman]

...and now he sucks...

[LMSrocks33]

I remember watchin this on tv. chip carey.

SWING & A DRIVE,DEEP RIGHT CENTER,GONNNNEEEE! WELCOME 2 THE SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

[evadwall]

Kid's too injury prone - won't have a great career looks like.

[Phi10EAGLES]

@evadwall not at all hes too young to say hes injury prone just because you get injured young doesn't mean anything he might not have another injury the rest of his career . griffey is my all-time favorite player and he was deffinently injury prone but he still has 630 home runs .10 gold gloves and 7 silver slugger awards and 13 time mvp thats a great career im not hating on you im just saying give it some time and dont be so soon to judge an athletes career before its over thats all

[06222426]

LOOK UP PERRINE BASEBALL ADRIEN#24

[jordangerlitz]

Take that GAY-ROD, the one dislike was him Grow up you over payed piece of shit

[BCNation1]

<3

[gibnumba4]

Even the pitchers in the bullpen were goin nuts

[Coastergeekperson04]

Ever seen the movie Bull Durham? When the catcher told him the pitch?

[revproj]

Welcome to the Show!

[therealzshaner]

I was there in right field and we started the let's go heyward chant every time I watch this I still get the chills

[P0RTW00DNICK0LAS]

Jason Heyward likes this video

[xPureSkillz95x]

That was EPIC! I got chill bumps...That must had been the greatest feeling ever!!

[swatford98]

Carlos Zombrano disliked the video

[bosshoggish1]

@swatford98 Haha I dont think its a coincidence that it was just 1 person who disliked it....big Z got roasted on that pitch.

[dabears554]

@swatford98 Carlos Zambrano disliked your spelling of his name and could and would beat your ass in with his bat.

[nicwiz]

@swatford98 lol

[TheWheatisHeat96]

@swatford98 because big z is smart

[beefweef]

good coverage! well done! very hard not to get excited.

[JcMAC82]

i still get chills!

[kingwebb9911R]

Braves are gonna be in beast mode this year, if nobody gets hurt!!

[nikobellicisgangsta]

The Braves have a BEAST team this season...too bad Infantes gone though..

[ViperRKOortonVideos]

@nikobellicisgangsta but we have UGGLA who's coming around out of his slump!

[Stevens89265]

@nikobellicisgangsta I know it's been over a year, but I'm still not over that.

[Finne116]

Lol well it's the Cubs...no brainer that their pitcher is gonna blow it. Congrats to Heyward though 

[hbarr2639]

where are you baseball season?!

[LiveSportsMoments]

excellent video. it's just had to be against my cubs....lol

still a nice moment caught live!

[dismanthegeeb]

hold one to see the stanky leg ha

[djbatkoski]

haha...one person flat out choked. With Prado (2010 all Star) and Jones (Future hall of Famer) out for the playoffs, it kinda hurts...then to top it all off billy wagner gets hurt in the playoffs, then we lose the next night in the last inning. Choked against a team who was last in their division for years????? I dont know if you realize that previous years don't matter when deciding who finishes first in their division...then ultimately winning the world series

[Freestylez100]

@NYyankees5uck By barely getting past the rockies in the last 4 days of the season. The reason why you choked is because of Brooks Conrad and the rest of the season.

[GibsonD90]

@Freestylez100 Dude you're whack. The Braves didn't 'choke'. Thier lineup was riddled with injures which lead to numerous backups having to start. Conrad is good and proved that throughout the season, just made a few mistakes. If you have NEVER made a mistake in your life, feel free to keep trash talking him. "Your season ended because of Brooks Conrad". Um no it didn't? Baseball is a team sport, idiot. You win or lose as a team. With a healthy lineup, I believe it would've been different.

[Freestylez100]

@GibsonD90 Brooks Conrad said it himself, he's the reason the Braves season ended. You guys flat out choked against a team who was last in their division for years.

[Nobudgetking]

POSEY!!!

[AlphaKennyBody25]

haha carlos zambrono disliked this

[UpperCIass]

I love his swing!

[CepSayWhat]

Thanks for ruining a great season Conrad.

[TheAllBaseball]

nice video!

[humbleservanttoJC]

I wonder if Zabrano threw a fit in the dugout afterwards?

[xTitanHD]

god heyward is a BEAST i cant believe the giants came back today :( hopefully lowe can win for us tomarrow.

[Kevin01SH]

nice footage, remember we had this guy hitting 7th at the time? hes progressed tremendously in the past year

[hittersean14]

That is a large man. I would say kid, but im only 24 too. He is a monster.

[MrSouthphillyitalian]

what happened tonite with the braves gettin blown out by the nats, how could they think about the Phillies if they cant put up any points.

[RapExclusive1]

cool

[mcduganmcman]

welcome to the show

[momo4064]

haha against carlos zambrano i bet he was pissed and went too the dougout and tossed around the gatorade cooler hahaha

[MrNatureVideos]

[baseballchikk98]

This made for an awesome 1st Game for me & my mom. We were so pysched & talked abt it all the way home!!!! BTW this is Sydney lea CK out my singing videos on my channel. Who knows maybe I'll get to sing @ 1 of the BRAVES games 1 Day....

[giantsfootball2008]

im a die heart met fan and i have 2 say this guys an animal got his autograph nd jersey

[duwal]

[IRemainSick]

[djtrumpet11]

@IRemainSick Hey, what fun is the Braves being ahead without you guys scaring us a little. Enjoy smelling it because you won't taste it.

[Beardyz]

Still do this day I get adrenaline (or however you spell it) rushes when i see this. even after seeing it like 20 times now.

Go braves!

[Bucs6817]

Next JR

[thechampb12345]

Man the braves are the shit,we gonna make it to the post season and thanks to Brian mc cann we have home field advantage.and we all know that the braves have the best home record in all of MLB. Go braves!!!!!!!!

[ZouseKouseki]

dude i got cold chills when i watched this live, on tv. the chant just set it off! j-hey a boss

[SuperTechno111]

thats how its done

[NewYorkStateOfCrime]

Met fan till I die....But this kid has a bright future. 100% going 2 be a Met killer

[ashleyej19]

@NewYorkStateOfCrime your a awesome for saying that.

[AndrewsXboxFilms]

Nope Jason heyward got taken out of the all stars line up.

[dakingman007]

@AndrewsXboxFilms he would start

, but he has a bone bruise

[008bravesfan]

@AndrewsXboxFilms The only reason he wasn't in the line up is because he was hurt...he was voted into the starting lineup. Know your facts before you open your mouth you idiot.

[AndrewsXboxFilms]

@008bravesfan dumbass, i just said he got taken out of the line up not why he did. Dumb shit.

[008bravesfan]

@AndrewsXboxFilms Don't be a rude little cocky jerk, I was just saying he was taken out because he was hurt and he earned his place in the lineup. He didn't get 'taken out'. He removed himself from the lineup.

[moomoo10ful]

hes the bomb

[GaDawgs15818]

@MrSouthphillyitalian Is that why the Braves have won 5 of the last 6 against Philly and the Braves currently lead the NL East while the Phillies manager is getting on to his team for watching Clint Eastwood movies while they should be preparing for a game.

[drummerboy5192]

@GaDawgs15818 hahahahahahahahhaha you told that dude!! braves all the way! prado and heyward for all-stars

[GaDawgs15818]

@drummerboy5192 Thanks pal. It feels alot like the 90's in Braves Country right now doesn't it?

[drummerboy5192]

@GaDawgs15818 hell yeah. were going to win it all. AND they beat the mets tonight!

[GaDawgs15818]

@drummerboy5192 Haha already up 2-0 in the series.

[WillTheThrillTV]

this year i got front row seats behind home plate but it was the day the rockies pithed a no hitter against us

[IWantDaveKast]

whatafuture

[EverSoTired]

what kind of camera did you use to film this? really nice quality.

[nickelbackrocks16]

I damn near fell outta my chair when Heyward annihilated that ball.That was freaking awesome .Heyward for rookie of they year ! YOU ARE THE MAN HEYWARD!!!!

[ymp5000]

I was born a braves fan and I will die a braves fan. I have a picture of Dale Murphy holding me on his hip one the field at Atlanta Fulton County Stadium when I was 8 years old. I remember going to game and sitting any where we wanted. I remember playing at Chief Knockahomas’ teepee. I will never forget the Jay hay kids first MLB at bat! THANKS BOOBY!!! THANKS FOR EVERY THING!!!

[greapfer717]

I'm a phillies fan, but I gotta say, this dude is gonna be a freaking monster in this league. I'm a little scared...

[ugafan2081]

awesome video!!!!!!!

[BBTHEBEAST]

i caught that ball best day ever

[WagnerFanTilDeath]

Heyward is the fucking man

[bravos1987]

Its actually 476 foot shot. (longest this season as of 6-6-2010

*Go to Homerun tracker and it list them all

[MasterAceman123456]

I was there too!

[idontlikepie66]

very nice vid with good quality ive been to one game at turner field see we are red soxs fans and we live in AL so its a long drive to fenway so we went to see the braves play the red sox very good time

[utvolsnumber1]

[jelanimadman]

[HadleyDGRC]

Not just first AB, but first SWING.

WELCOME TO THE SHOW!

[atlbraves1025]

swing and a drive belted right WELCOME TO THE SHOW

[Kevvy514]

great article on him in sports illustrated :)

[djtrumpet11]

I love watching this kid play. I hope to see the Braves this summer as it's Bobby Cox' last season.

[jdls12]

He has such a fundamental swing. Great kid. I like how he ran the bases fast. I hate when those cocky bastards take forever to run the bases.

[skittle1234567890]

OK WHO IS A JASON HEYWARD FAN?!!!

if you are a jason heyward fan the answer this why is his jersy number 22!

[Alang2009]

@skittle1234567890 to honor his friend who was killed in a car accident when he was a senior in high school...im glad to see you watch sportcenter ;)

[skittle1234567890]

@Alang2009 lol i just got really bored so i asked that question but yea he is a great person and player

[honeyflash1]

I was at that game...well....I'm at every game cause I work there, but I remember this! I love him!

[musicismyrelease]

the j-hey kid is here to stay

[foilseal]

he's such a good hitter. its a shame that he's black

[musicismyrelease]

@foilseal fuck you you fuckin douche bag! know when to keep youre mouth shut!

[foilseal]

@musicismyrelease youre? nice...

[ReyHardyCena619]

ALL THESE DAMN METS FANS

IF YOU DONT LIKE THE BRAVES, Y R U WATCHING A BRAVES VIDEO

but there is an excuse,yall are METS fan

[hubthestud]

I remember watching this live....as soon as he swung you knew it was gone......It was sweet...Im not even a braves fan

[bravesfan1018]

@hubthestud I remember it too. I was texting one of my friends when he came up and he was watching the game too. He is a Phillies fan so you can imagine the jealousy going into the season. As soon as Heyward makes contact you KNOW its gone. He calls me immediately to tell me he hates me because we have Heyward and he doesn't. I love the ESPN call of this over the Chip Carey call cause Chip is suppose to cheer for the Braves. When Heyward made contact the ESPN guy sounded like he wanted it gone

[SpazManiak713]

He's gonna be one of the best players to ever play baseball i can already tell.

[Freestylez100]

Jason Heyward is nice. Braves lost 9 in a row. Mets won 8 in a row. Braves suck! Go Mets!

[Riley35271cp]

@Freestylez100 please shut it? i mean its mean to say there bad i only like mets for Frenchie And David

[Freestylez100]

@Riley35271cp I don't like the Braves period. LoL I only like them when they beat other teams in the division to give us a cushion in the standings.

[thefirst21]

@Freestylez100 yea. we went on a losing streak of 9 but thanks to your mets they kept us in by only 4 games back lol

[Freestylez100]

@thefirst21 If it was September u guys were out of it already LoL

[008bravesfan]

@Freestylez100 So how are the Mets doing now??? Who's leading the division...??? Oh wait...that's right...the Braves. Shut your mouth.

[Freestylez100]

@008bravesfan Seasons is not yet. Even if they won the East that would be their 1st division title in about 6 years xD. Let's talk craap around September 20 ok?

[buckfever32123]

@Freestylez100 Not to mention our 14 straight division titles before that...lol

[Freestylez100]

@buckfever32123 No titles since then lmao

[buckfever32123]

@Freestylez100

No titles since 1986 for the Mets LMAO

[Freestylez100]

@buckfever32123 It's no that bad though. Your team hasn't won a WS title since the year I was born lol and the Cubs haven't won a WS title since Abe Lincoln was still alive LMFAO

[DlSCONNECTED]

@Freestylez100 First in six years? You're right, but it could be the 15th since 1991.

[Freestylez100]

@DlSCONNECTED Good for your team.

[008bravesfan]

@Freestylez100 Just saying at least the Braves know how to get to the post season. I don't think you have the right to comment about how many times the Braves have won the division because the Mets like to hang out at the bottom of the division every year.

[Freestylez100]

@008bravesfan Alright but you guys choked against the Giants of all teams. LoL just be quiet Mets will spank the Braves next season.

[008bravesfan]

@Freestylez100 And I repeat...at least the Braves got to the postseason. If the Mets were actually good enough to spank anyone I'd eat my words, but they're terrible. If the Mets can take the NL East I wouldn't care as long as the Phils don't.

[Freestylez100]

@008bravesfan We will get to the postseason next year. There's no doubt in my mind he will because the great GM we have now, even though we didn't make a splash this offseason I have a feeling we might make a deadline trade to get another star player. The Braves we're close to winning the division but, they fell short. Another note: Your season ended because of Brooks Conrad.

[skoal580]

@Freestylez100

YO DUMB FUCK THE GIANTS WON THE WORLD SERIES! I'M SURE IT WASN'T A CHOKE THEY WERE JUST BETTER!

[Freestylez100]

@skoal580 Someone's getting angry I see. There's still no excuse to lose to a team who has been at the sub 500 mark in the last 5 years. Braves Suck!

[micahjones81]

I was at the game, too, below where this video was taken. I was behind the cubs dugout, 22 rows up.

[mjwible27]

this kid reminds me of Ryan Howard.... GOOOOOOOOOO PHILLIES!!!!!!!!!

[xxblu3xspinzxx]

This dude is on of my Favorite players!!!

[mileseking]

yankees all day any day!!!!.ya braves goin lose 2 da phillies in da division so no world series championship 4 ya lol

[mets558]

@mileseking yeah the bankees arent winning the ws again this year.

[willieg54]

lol yes we are. BTW enjoy him for the next 4 year cause after that hes a yankee baby. lol

[thirdshift47]

Yeah,everyone knows that the Yanks buy their championships.lol

Sorry,but if this guy is this good four years down the line then the Braves ain't lettin' this cat get away.

[mileseking]

@mets558 well didnt da mets choke on september then not go 2 da playoffs after they have da lead 2 year in a row, ya mets is sorry and TRASH

[mets558]

@mileseking you speak like a dumbass, and the yankees are boring as shit cuz all they do is just spend a shitload of money. they are more like a business than an actual baseball team.

[elliottbeast05]

freakin bomb!!!!

[KinkESizemore]

EPIC WIN. We're eventually gonna win 10 in a row and run away with the WC.

[robdunhamsp]

What is your camera, if you don't mind me asking?

[punkrat77]

Ive only been to one game in turner field i live in vermont now but used to go to games at atlanta fulton county stadioum all the time. Good times

[IPCforU]

@punkrat77  yeah Turner field is nice I never been to the old stadium saw it on tv a lot but it didnt look good with all the different colored seats.

[theitalian556]

Heyward has been striking out left and right in recent games! He will learn to settle down and learn plate discipline! When he learns plate discipline and stops swinging at every pitch, he we be AMAZING!!!!

[DroofusNorth]

Maybe he heard you. He did pretty good yesterday -  3-3 with a homer!

[theitalian556]

@DroofusNorth Haha. I knew sooner or later he would learn not to swing at every pitch! He was hitting like an experienced vet yesterday! He got a few walks as well as hits! Maybe Bobby Cox sat down with him and said. " Jason if you keep striking out like that you maybe sitting the next one out, or never move up in the line up!."That would be a real eye opener for Heyward!!!

[SepiaPrince]

I knew someone had to have filmed this historic at-bat. Great job!

[IPCforU]

@SepiaPrince thanks a lot Im glad I contributed to sharing this historical moment

[VideoGameSacker123]

@IPCforU Its in Amazing Quality too! thanks for posting!

[Out9922]

I was there. And after we blasted Zambrano in the 1st, 2 Cubs fans went nuts and started taking pictures with this older latino man. I go over to the cubs fans and ask who the hell it was. It was Zambrano's father. Lmao! Me and my buddies were going nuts right in front of this guy when his son just gave up a ton of runs in the first. I shook his hand and he said "No Engles"

[sonjo18]

446 feet! The braves all the way!

[sonjo18]

@sonjo18 OH! my bad! 476 Feet!!!

[IPCforU]

@sonjo18  yep it was very cool to see it no matter how far that ball went

[Smikley918]

I went to that game, but I got there late and missed this part. We were getting ready to park when this happened. I could hear the statdium roaring for the home run.

[darmafb]

Great Vid man. Thanks for posting.

[IPCforU]

@darmafb your welcome glad u enjoyed it!

[mattm172]

thats cool looked like it landed in the bullpen, gets to add that ball to his collection and im sure there will be many more on the way

[IPCforU]

@mattm172  yep about 10 or 12 yrs from now he should have about 500 home runs

[IPCforU]

@mattm172 yeah it landed in the bullpen u can just see the ball against the green background as it clears the fence

[hellogoodbyebeatles]

WOW very impressive, Go Jason Heyward!!! I Love the BRAVES cant wait to go see them this year, WORLD SERIES HERE WE COME

[HWPTV]

[IPCforU]

[auburntigers27]

[IPCforU]
