 Welcome back to another episode of Watchin' Baseball, movin' on up. World Series number 1995. The Braves are in it again. This is their third World Series. There was no World Series in 1994, strike season. Didn't happen. The Braves lost to the Twins. They lost to the Blue Jays. Now they play the Indians. Can they finally win one, Jake? I think so. Although some people probably got mad at me on the last one for saying they didn't, because I had a brain fart for a second. I think they will. But this Cleveland team was no joke. I know you're a, you love a good run differential. Yeah, I, Trevor poofed us. Love. That's poofs. A good run differential in this. That's poofs territory. This Cleveland team was pretty special and maybe what I was thinking of, Jim, when I originally said the Braves and didn't win one was maybe I was thinking of these Indians, because they had a late 90s powerhouse that got trumped by another late 90s AL powerhouse, an actual powerhouse supplying electricity. Yeah. Anyway, there's only two games on YouTube from the series, games four and game six. So we went and we're going to watch the end of game four, because at this point, the Braves are up two to one, but Wollers get shaky, trying to lock down their, the Braves are up two to one games. And I think they're up five to one was the score and Wollers comes in a non-save situation. So we're going to watch that. Then we'll skip and watch the end of game six. Here we go. As always, this is brought to you by the shop at Johnboymedia.com. Oh my God, tape worm in the eye. No, it's a shirt. Oh my God, you can get that at our store. Ooh, close. That's true. Shirt dust everywhere, particles of the shirt. Wow. That's tough. Don't do that Zach. Don't do that Zach. Don't do that. Okay, here we go. Now folks, are you still for the next night or the night after for a relief picture after you have the time out and he had left? Yeah, I think Bobby was generalizing, but he said normally people tell him it's the second day. Only 41, So this is top nine? Yeah, trying to lock it down. Mark, holy, Wollers, power pitcher John. No, not however, and a young Manny Ramirez stepping to the plate. I can. A lot of you will know him as one of the best strong jawline right-handed hitters to play the game of baseball. Bottom of the ninth inning. Uh-oh, a reset. A reset. A little bit of a different stance there from Manny. And if you're the Indians, you need face runners. Are we still using the line? No, we'll take him any way. Ah, I thought we're still line guys. It's a nice mustache. Manny loved a good take. Unless you may be thinking, well, why is Wollers not getting like this? 97. Well, when it was three runs down, it was a safe situation. Lee's rocking. And then Lopez got the deal. So Wollies ready, bringing them. That's Bobby Cox is thinking, and you certainly can't fall. I love his delivery. Bound away on the count one and one. Okay, let me pay attention to it. I was paying attention to the guy in yellow on the bottom left just now. Good mullet, good delivery. Going into his hands. You cannot take a strike. Absolutely. But that has advanced to the game. Absolutely. You know, the players are bigger. They're banging the drum today. Ah, yeah, he is. Good fad. Yeah, well, that's a nice pitch. That's a nice delivery. It's composed. Yes. I like how composed it is. Well, the last guy we watched fell every time. Yeah, that's true. That's a good comparison, Travis. Like Hargrove. He knew how to play the game. Outside. He spent four or five years coming through the minor leagues. Man, I'm trying to picture what Nanny changed. I think he became more straight up, plus Bend. I think he was closer to play. The 1-0 pitch was a high-pass ball out of the strike zone. Oh, no, it's a nice zone. This is getting too close. That was too tight. Stop zooming. All right, here we go. Bomb. All right, we've got Bomb. Got out. How old was Man Ram? Rollers. I can find that out. Let's see. Ramirez, right? Yeah. Rollers, not as bad pitch. Yep. Got a bad pitch, catch? Yeah. Did you get a piece of that? Man Ram, this was his age, 23 season. It doesn't even look like Man Ram. That's a different guy. Babe, you just got a lot of buy time. They're talking right now. The next guy gets on. Let's pull Rollers. Spit. Making his lips. Over the. Look at that. The follow-through over the shoulder bat release is pretty good. That's pretty. That's pretty good. Wow, they're still doing the diamond in and out. But this time, it looks like a real frame. We're not into the diamond, huh? I'm just crazy how long it's been lasting. Is it done? Yellow line went a while. We haven't seen the yellow line. Maybe they swapped those out. They don't do the side-by-side one, because they got cameras on there. All surrender. Oh, my God. There he is, a young man. Jesus. Got that. That home run by Ramirez was his third of postseason. High and tight. That changes in the later years. I think the guy I know. The second game against Seattle, he had two of those home runs and four of those RBIs. Then after that, he went four for his past 40s. Yes. He's been struggling. One, one to Sereno. This in the way, two and one. So I don't know if it's the cameras, Jake. Sure. Tell Mark Waters, I just can't say that. It could be the cameras, but like, Woolworth looks like he's throwing hard. He is. And his pitches look like they have movement. I know, but like, not a lot of the pitchers have looked like they're throwing as hard since then. Could be the camera and the frame rate, or it could be they weren't. No, I mean, this is the first, I think this might be the first reliever we saw that had like a double-digit, a double-digit K per nine and stuff. Woolworth was supposed to be legit, and then he kind of fell apart. I think he just lost his control. See how accurate that is. Um, yeah, I think he just kind of lost it a little bit. Some good, some good strikeout numbers from Woolworth. Compare Don Rocks and Woolworths. No. I mean, even me, man, we could compare Eckersley to Woolworths, and they're not throwing the same game. Ooh. Is that Viscale? Yeah. No, it's the Bravesh. Eckersley could touch. I liked his pitches. I just said, yeah. I didn't think anything about it. Hergrove. Well, Indian head chief address. Trab is alive in 1995. It's Rafael Delio, your guy. Huge Lopez in the top of the ninth inning. A rally for him in here, huh? That's why this is. So the Indians had the best offense in all of baseball. Their run differential was 233 runs, and they had the most amount of walk-offs in baseball. They were like, the never-died, comeback kids. And the series is two to one. So right now, Bobby Cox is saying, like, no, if you don't have it, even though we have a three-run lead, I ain't fucking around again. You just sit down, and we'll bring someone else in. And because if the Indians come back and win this, not only do they tie the series, it's kind of a crushing one. You don't want to lose the 5-1 game in a night. It's a momentum, it's a momentum change. So that's why this is a big moment. Wolers is out. So there is some fatigue where they're like, you know, we can blame it on that for his psyche. I think Pedro Borbón, I think, is sun-played. Always believe. Yeah, two Pedro Borbóns. Two Pedro Borbóns. Or this is June, it is. Yeah. You might have seen, did we see Pops in an earlier World Series? I think he's got a lot of guts to make this move. He pitched in the 72 World Series, the 75 and 76 World Series for the Rets. Wow. Keeping it in the Borbón family. That's how fast we've climbed through this. Keeping up with the Borbón. We've climbed through two generations. On the bench, Tony Pena, Wayne Kirby and Ruben Amar. There he is. Tony. Tony, he was a player? And Tony Pena. He was getting ready to become a coach at that point. That was Coach Tony Pena. Tony, he was a player coach. So he hasn't pitched in two weeks, and he faced four batters that night. Holy shit. Haven't pitched in two weeks, pretty well. And he's coming in against like a hard-of-the-line. Rollers was gassed. Good ballpark, huh? Tony Pena started in 1980. 38 years old. Tony Pena. He's a coach. Lefty versus Lefty last year. Tony, you look at his numbers here in the World Series. But this year, he hits him 75 against left-handed pitching. Last year, it was about 170. He's skinny, Tony. The loser last night. Skinny year, Tomei. We saw him. And Gorgon is there to pitch to one hitter. We watched a game with him where he was like, was at third base. What was that? What's his name? Alamoir Ahmed. Lefty hasn't pitched in two weeks. Everything's hard. Fastball slider, everything's hard. I like that. Ooh, you like his delivery? He's got a little league delivery. He's just throwing everything at you, Tony. Got a win. Tomei. Tomei. Like Marisa. That means awesome. Look at that leg. The leg goes up fast. I like it. Kavi gave him before that pitch. He gave him a nice catcher. Put it here, dude. That's the whole point of this. Wow. Lefty specialist. I mean, we're going to get into the edge of the looping soon, right? That is a fun pitch and swing. Yeah. That's the guy throwing. That's the guy saying, fucking hit this. The other guy saying, OK, fine. Oh, wow. Yes. That's baseball. Wow. Really going out. Get him, Jim. It's on the fucking ground. He gave him that pitch twice. Doesn't really help. It's been a very liberal strike zone all night. It's been a big strike zone. Maybe an inch or so off the plate. He worked the Tomei. Nice exchange. The leg is really, like, entertaining. I'm almost missing the pitches because I was watching fucking whip that leg. But because he looked so good and threw strikes and Lofton is on deck. The left-hander, Bobby Cox is allowing Warbone to face Salomon. Remember something you talked about earlier and Bobby Cox told us early before Al was that Peña with a little bit of upper background. Baseball in October. Love you, man. All right. I like that song. This baseball in October? We love him. Oh, that was a nasty slide. That's a nice pitch. Oh. That is a funnel. Yeah. Point ball. Pinball. Oh. Oh. Snap out of it. Sandy. I mean, he should throw the slider in the dirt. That slider he just threw, throw that in the dirt. Oh, too. Good reaction. That's great. That is a nice pitch to him. Interble. What's he throwing right now? I think that was fast. I know, but like what mile per hour and look at him just throwing smoke. Saying 92. I think we got better cameras. Whatever it is, it's sneaky fast. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. Whatever it is, it's sneaky fast. It's not. It's. It's a good looking fast one coming behind. It's, I haven't pitched in two weeks, fast ball. Well, you really are saying a lot of life in these. Yeah. So is it now Kenny Lofton? Kenny Lofton, my guy. What year do you think it is when the scores on the screen the entire time? 2000? Yeah. Early mid 2000s. Love Kenny Lofton the play away. Give me a ball at spring training. Huge. That was a baby. He was just a little bye baby. Woo! Good justice. So balls and wallers like thank you, dude. Yeah. That's an awesome performance when you throw a ball. Yeah. That's why we watch it. Alright, let's skip now. Alright, let's go parents at the end. Let's skip to the final inning. Game 6. Game 6. I believe. Braves are 3-1. I think they're throwing a combined 1-2. Braves are 3-2. Braves are up in the series 3-2. This game is 1-0 Braves. One hitter between Glavin and wallers right now. Look at that shot. See that was brilliant. We're in Atlanta. I mean, you gotta remember this is a Braves team. It was so good. They lost the World Series to the Twins. They lost the World Series to the Lujays. A strike takes away a World Series opportunity. Potentially. Potentially. They will win the better teams. So the city's been hot. They've been teased. And they think this is supposed to be a dynasty. Yeah. Because they've got 3 potential Cy Young winners every year. One-on-one. That's not just because of the speed. Why is he throwing? Waller's motion makes him easy to run on even for a lesser. Couple guys that came out of the Indians bullpen this game. It's a one-run game. And they're talking right now about how Waller's has speed and Waller's is easy to run. So if he gets a single and a walk-on, he kind of gets out. Waller doesn't care if you're on base. Just throwing his stuff. The one-on-one. Julian Tavares pitched in this game to the Cleveland Indians. Alan Embry pitched in this game for the Cleveland Indians. Another guy who's been playing for 50 years already. We see the Flashbulbs popping all around the park as each pitch is delivered from Waller's to Waller's. This is our first Flashbulbs update? First Flashbulbs update. Bob Costas in the booth. Just a few now, but as the pitch comes, there will be more. Two balls. One strike. Waller's. My friend, Bob Costas. Kind of family. Wow. It's the fastest human legs I've ever done. Look at his legs. How does the left fielder get this close? Where was he? High and down the line. That's a loft in him. They don't think lofty can catch up to Waller's. That doesn't matter so much. That's why Cox wants him in in the ninth. This folks does not presume in an NCAA or business that must be taken care of. This 1995 World Series game brought to you by the makers of Advil. I mean, that's a huge spot for these guys for this play to be happening and everyone wants a goddamn replay. But it has been a boring rollover for a second. Again for all those who wondered why he didn't pitch it for him early in the ballgame. This is why. He is their defensive specialist. He's the guy that he knows can make the plays under pressure. And that's why Bobby Cox said, I always hate to take Rafael Belliard out of the ballgame for a pitch hitter. Look at those numbers. One error in each of the last three seasons. That tells you how good he is defensively. That's crazy. Right. And it's why I get mad about the Jeter stuff, because Jeter gets compared to that. Can't hit long. Looks like what are we even comparing here. Tony Payne with the gear on. Like that? I like Tony Payne in the dugout. Because he just looks like a coach. It doesn't look like a coach. Coach just put the gear on for like a rally cry. Come on. This makes a mistake. And Sorento can tie it. And a pinch hit double off Wallers in game four. He just watched that. Yeah. His stuff still doesn't look good. Sovarez. The last couple of hitters. He did it on Lofton. Yes. And he starts Sorento off with a breaking ball. I know this guy's got power. And he can probably hit you deep the other way, too, talking about to left. I mean, the guy at Wallers, who we've said three man in that triple digit area. I mean, to start a guy off bang bang with a strike instead of the breaking ball. I'm a little surprised. You definitely have a three on this. Well, remember, in this situation, you should always go with your best pitch. And his best pitch is a fast ball. Somebody's going to reach. Chopping wood by Sorento. For Bell to have one in the season. Chopping so much of the wall. Nobody on. And a one-off pitch. An outside fast ball. That was right there. That was a party. I bet Sorento wants that one back. He's got a great splitter, too. Thank you, Tim McCarver. A fast ball curve and a splitter or a slider and a splitter. But to establish yourself or get ahead on that guy, it is so awfully important. It's only a one-nothing game. Oh, my. There. That's it. We're definitely coming into the territory that just kind of like a fine ball test. The one-one. Woo! You like it now. The splitter and gets ahead one and two. That was dirty. That was it. And a good one it was. Someone pitched into that. Pitch me. Pitch me. Rob's doing great. Aaron is one more time. You can see it. Splitter down. Sorento chases. Dirty pitch. Keep chopping that wallpaw. Right here, bitch. Put it right there. Ooh. Sutterfield. Grissom. Lots of room. Arquise. Wow. Don't zoom in on Tom. They like that. Don't worry. That's mustache. Better mustache. Come on. However. How long? Why are the zoos? Big face sometime. Find the face to zoom in. Get up, guys. Get the hell up. It's the World Series. What are you saying tonight? Maybe. Maybe. What's that? How come a pitch hasn't been done? When the moment builds. When the moment builds. There we go. You see that? Grissom on the run. The team of the 90s. The team of the 90s. We're 95. That story changes. Oh my god. Who is that? You see that guy coming on the left side of the screen? He like slips. I wonder if he got pushed. Watching the left side of the pile. Right. Right. There. I think he slid to steal the glove or the hat. David Justice hit the only run in this game. From run. The H doesn't like it. Not a fan. MVP. The team of the 90s. 95. I don't know if you'll have to say it. Aggressive move. At that point. You got to say so far. I had one of World Series. I think a lot of people were mad when we called them the team of the 90s. Slavin won World Series MVP. I don't think that's what I was trying to. Like at the time these Braves are supposed to be like, oh shit. Yeah, but they didn't want anything. Strike here. Look. The whole thing you were saying before. What could that guy be doing? She was no pain. Like what is he filling out? The scouting report for next season. He's just trying not to talk to anyone. I think he's just writing Cleveland Indians zero. Braves one. Alright. Final score. He's filling out the pitching chart. This is Norville pitching. Chipper Jones was on this team now. We didn't see too much of him. It's Luis Polonia, your guy. Fred McGriff. It's a good Braves team. Do you think Manny cares? Yeah. 23-year-old Manny. Kimmy? We're all young once. These are two good teams. How many Hall of Famer's rooms was there? One second. Please hold. That's a Babacox. We've got one, two, three, four, five, six on the Braves. Two on the Indians. Eight Hall of Famer's, these ones. That was just like fixing the ground. He's crying. Barra's, man. They take the camera off him. Fuckers. If someone's actually crying. That's fine. Sadness is fine. That sure works. Oh, God. What is it? Not into that, huh? No, I think you show the people's celebration. Agony of defeat. Show me sad people. Don't show me a guy weeping. So bad for them. That was a young chipper. Oh, God. He got butt. What the hell's he wearing? I think he's grabbing something right now. It's mom stop. This. This man belongs to the club. That's exactly right. It's a good sign. Are signs of being anymore? Yeah. Finally. You are still up? Yeah. I just don't notice them? I think so. I feel like they're mighty. I thought you wanted to be a sign. A good sign is great. A bad sign is horrible. It's a tough game. I mean, think about the I Love Baseball. That was a sign. Yeah. We still have it. I'm not going to guide it. No. I appreciate it. Don't block people's view with your sign. I mean, that's part of the problem. Use it after hits. Did he like, always do? No. He had like a nice relief appearance. He gave everything he had. See, a lot of people brought markers and blind signs. I think they just made it up on the spot. What is that? There's so many numbers on there. How's it to go? I don't know. There's like numbers over numbers. Are we getting inside the locker room at all? I would have stopped it a long time ago. How'd I know? Up next, 1996. Wow. Stay tuned for tomorrow's episode. Unless this one comes out on Saturday, which I don't think it does. It's pretty cool. We got to see the team in the 90s. Yeah. I wonder if any other team comes and steals the title. Thanks for watching us watching baseball. Good for the Braves.
