Enter Sandman: Mariano Rivera

[MrBallsack17]

Comparing Papelbon to Rivera should never happen.....Rivera is FAR superior

[marshmelloo975]

You call this good? How about Paplebon coming out to Shipping Off To Boston! Oh I am sure gonna miss him.

[ThePeyet]

@marshmelloo975 Paplebon shit himself when he hears this theme

[marshmelloo975]

@ThePeyet ya because its so horrible

[PenguinvsPats]

@marshmelloo975 the same way the Yankees are going to miss all those wins Papelbon gave us

[marshmelloo975]

@PenguinvsPats oh are u a red sox fan

[amromkruman]

great great video, had tears in my eyes, go yankeeeees!!!

[dudestir127]

Of all the Enter Sandman remixes on Youtube, this one is by far the greatest.

[Spiderman7670]

Thumbs up if you think he deserves to be a 1st ballet Hall of Famer

[Benji12586]

When 42 Enters the game, there's only 2 words you need to know: GAME OVER!

[MrYankeedoodle13]

bets closer of all time like if you agree

[TheRealest915]

3:44 Filthy Cutter

[Pokerstarsvevo]

Fear the 51

[anwest]

My moment of life so far in my 30 year old Swedish life is the moment I visited Yankee Stadium last year and witnessed Rivera enter and closed a game. Pure happiness!

[earlobez777]

look out 700 saves

[hskshag00]

doesn't his hat look unusually blue at 1:48?

[spencerhinds]

@hskshag00 yeah those are the special flag hats. you can see girardi hat at 2:10 has the NY with the stars and stripes. i think they used them on the 4th of july, but i could be wrong I dont live in NY

[invincibledada]

Great video! But broken bats. We need broken bats!

[avonbarksdale420]

3 people cant hit the cutter... hell no one can



[TheRealest915]

3:43 filthy pitch!

[carlinrulez666]

Mariano Rivera, future HOFer and the Yankees will retire # 42 for him.

[broadstreet21]

@carlinrulez666

Technically, #42 is already retired by the MLB in honour of Jackie Robinson, but because Rivera was still wearing the number at the time of retirement, he is allowed to keep it. But yeah, the Yanks would certainly honour him too.

[KahneorBust]

I love Mo he is a baseball God!!! Go Yankees!

[STRAIGHTiLLMATiC42]

nothing like being in yankee stadium and its the bottom of the 9th and enter sandman comes throw the speakers and the greatest of all time enters.. goosebumps everytime

[mikawhofan]

@STRAIGHTiLLMATiC42 it would be the top of the 9th actually if the yankees are the home team

[CameronBall19]

602!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[TamSawyuh]

hey listen, I'm a diehard bosox fan, and even I like mo. i have respect for jeter but pretty much hate the rest of the yanks.

[AdamR702]

Mariano Rivera> Crapelbomb

[Tucayo10]

@1:28 was it Steinbrenner's death, or someone else's?

[pjvogmis1]

@Tucayo10 It was for Steinbrenner and Bob Sheppard (the voice of Yankees Stadium). They died 2 days apart July 13th and 11th respectively. :o( Bob Sheppard was the Yankees' Public Announcer since the 1950s. Derek Jeter actually asked Bob to tape his voice when he came to bat (years earlier). When you see Jeter bat, you will hear "now batting....Derek Jeter...#2....Derek Jeter...." You will be missed, Bob! You too Steinbrenner!

[Canes5Rings]

3:25 look at the guy in the background to the left standing on the final pitch. He throws his arms up in frustration!

[Pokerstarsvevo]

The best closer in baseball Trevor Hoffman 51

[vantageIIx]

@Pokerstarsvevo Not really, I'm a Met fan and I say Mo is by far the best. I don't even think Hoffman was as good as Fingers, Gossage, Eckersley, Sutter, or Wagner.

[twinkie57401]

Congrats to Mo for 602. Closers are a relatively new type of player in baseball, a little bit like the DH. It's a little easier to excel at closer and get "Saves" than win games as DH.  Baseball purists and of course old-timers think you should pitch nine innings, but that doesn't sell as many tickets. Closers are here to stay and complete games are becoming much much more rare.

[Juice2981]

When was the last time he threw that pitch 0_o

Either way, great pitcher, great man, congrats on 602. =]

[KevinF780]

Whatever, GO SOX!!!!

[zeroeffects88]

@KevinF780

Can't wait for the Sawwks not to make the playoffs.

[B4ULoveShine]

#Congrats to #42 Mariano Rivera, as the all-time saves leader!

[caca12349999999999]

is there a cooler and more fitting nickname than "The Hammer Of God"?

truly, the greatest to ever did it

[pjvogmis1]

@caca12349999999999 Who the HECK is Hammer of the God? LOL! Mariano Rivera's nickname is The Sandman! Song motif?.....



[Dcarnys]

Congrats Mariano!!! 602

[Kemruss]

The.Greatest.Of.All.Time......­....period

[bpmar2]

602!

[pjrodriguez85]

thumbs up if you just saw mariano record 602

[neps1353]

Im a die hard Red Sox fan, and god damn man this is a great video, i hate the yanks but i have nothing but respect for them, and rivera especially. Great vid man

[torimelissa]

@neps1353 I respect that so much. I am a die hard yanks fan, and hate the sox, but no denying the greatness of Mo.

[neps1353]

@torimelissa exactly

[Jamerican44]

"I get the ball, I throw the ball and then I take a shower" Mariano Rivera



[MRNO7311]

I guarentee that the one dislike is from a degenerate redsox fan!

[bronxbomber0042]

0:55 is that a curveball from Mariano?!? what!!!

[saveusX29Y2J]

@bronxbomber0042 nah he probably just invented the curving cutter

[millalite24]

@bronxbomber0042 most likely a slider, he used to throw one but he dropped it once he injured his UCL, but the main reason he dropped it from his repertoire was because he learned his devastating cutter

[Kdubslugga]

Greatest pitcher to ever put on a Yankee uniform.

[avonbarksdale420]

I just found the best video on youtube ever, because i am friends with Mo on facebook... at least its good for something

[InternationalFlame]

No Mo, No 5 Championships. Doesn't happen. Period.

[miketna4ever]

greatest yankees of all time i dont care what anyone says

[MOREGIANSK]

3:17 Nice

[UniekTube]

*genuflects*

[narveson81]

This is sooo going on my facebook page when he breaks the saves record.

[21jtjames]

IN FOR THE SAVE NUMBER 42 MARIANO RIVERAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

[lockandload247]

If I die before I wake, pray mariano rivera my soul to take

[7Rayo13]

@lockandload247

That's a little perplexing considering Mo is a devout Christian.

[mikawhofan]

Wonderful video. I hope that all those that doubt him watch this video and understand why Mo is the greatest. Yes you have your Papelbon's or Bell's but they can't compare to number 42, the great Mariano Rivera. and with 30 saves @ the age of 41 and coming close to breaking the all time saves record.. Yeah his showing his age.

[DrMusicAlbert]

I think Soria will be the pupil of Mo..

[MrMopar4ever]

this is for all you loser boston fans , you'll never going to be like us the YANKEES FAN.gogogogogogogogogogogogogo­gogogogo YANKEES....... boston sucks

[MrMopar4ever]

this is for all you loser boston fans , you'll never going to like us the YANKEES FAN.gogogogogogogogogogogogogo­gogogogo YANKEES.......

[jojjimbo]

Greatest ever!!!!

[Coacheyhines9]

An absolutely beautiful tribute :)

[thamutebutton]

Fear the 42.

[apo18llo]

2:24 - That's how the '01 WS should have ended!

[pjvogmis1]

@apo18llo Rivera didn't lose that game PITCHING! He induced a ground ball to himself that should have been a tailor-made double play, but he ended up throwing it into centerfield (essentially a fielding error caused the crisis.). Instead of 2 outs and no one on the D-Backs had 2 on and no outs....and thus began the "carnage"-lol. Props to the D-Backs for coming through.

[Jonrafe]

alright! 42 likes!

[scoreboard24]

rivera. best.  closer. ever. EVER!

[ninjamoose42]

Best. Closer. Ever.

[la021583]

my new fave video!!!

thanks for posting

[IchigoKurosaki2121]

I HATE the Yankees so much....but I LOVE MO!!!

[kotulakj2]

Not chances in hell will anyone will be ever as good this guy. Rivera is like the Hulk Hogan of relief of pitching. No matter how many times people keep saying he's done he just keeps hulking up.

[swedishfish110193]

I was at that game at 1:48, the loudest I ever heard a crowd get at a game.Only Mariano can get out of a jam like he did that day. He is the best pitcher ever, bar none. And Metallica is fucking amazing.

[evcYankees]

This is fucking EPIC

[ohiogo363]

What if Hoffman and Rivera were on the same team?

[evcYankees]

@ohiogo363 why would a team have 2 closers? then one would have to settle to be 8th inning man

[pjvogmis1]

@evcYankees Are you DUMB? LOL!! The Yankees ACQUIRED the AL SAVE leader by the name of Rafael Soriano (45 Saves) who CHOSE to be Rivera's set-up man (7th inning man)--LMAO!! Way to be up-to-date evcYankees

[evcYankees]

@pjvogmis1 thanks i already know that. its a big adjustment to go from a one inning man to a different one. it would be a waste with hoffman and rivera. and way to be mature (are you DUMB? LMAO way to be up to date)

[pjvogmis1]

@evcYankees I apologize if my comment was curt, but it clearly addressed you comment. Why would a team have 2 closers? One closer wishes to join a winning team and is willing to be a team player for a championship. Flash Gordon did so several years ago. Re-reading my comment now it came off as snooty, jerky. I didn't mean it to. Cheers and keep cheering for the Yanks! Jay

[brithatsme1]

Many Kudos yanksng22, this is VERY NICELY DONE! Thanks for honoring the best closer of all time!

[summerease]

As a Twins fan I hate the Yankees but Rivera is one of my favorite people in the world

[pjvogmis1]

@summerease Rivera is just plain respectful. He gets a save and then just goes to shake his catcher's hand. Act like you have been there before....he has....he's an Oscar winner.

[Monstercox7]

Rivera's the shit he's 41 years old and still the best

[YANKEETOMO]

He's the best closer and really "SANDMAN"!!!

Go Yankees!!!

[ssklgaming18]

sandman

[wildboybatko]

what a stupid sport

[RGVention]

@wildboybatko your stupid for saying that.

[1993jsizzle]

@wildboybatko then gtfo bitch

[whitegrb]

Best way to end it: World Series 2009 Champions!

[kevinl9391]

For the Yankees, just end it at the 8th. Once that song comes on the 9th? Game Over.

[pjvogmis1]

....Speaking of baseball gods....1 pitch.....hit me if you can....baseball immortality....DONE!!!

[Mrdirtyshirt22]

Great play by Golson to get out Crawford

[justboughtabigmac]

0:55 A CURVEBALL? WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW

[1993jsizzle]

@justboughtabigmac just imagine if he also threw that xD

[gesztenye76]

Best tribute to the Greatest Ever on YouTube so far!

[mikawhofan]

@gesztenye76 truer words have never been spoken
