Even if Wynton Bernard never plays another game in the MLB, he'll be able to say he got a hit, stole a base, and scored a run in a major league game, and nobody can take that away from him.

He called him out, but it almost looked like he started to try and pull up at the last second while making the call. On some level to be making really close calls you have to be able to make the call without second-guessing yourself. I think that he knew about halfway through his stupid fist pump, but it is like an umpire thing that you don’t let anybody second-guess you including you

Something not talked about but definitely worth mentioning: Rockies fans are amazing.

I think it's a bit of both the Rockies do whatever they can to make themselves watchable and try not to be as bad of a Baseball team compared to some others when it comes to the Fanbase and such some people get very upset when it comes to the team losing their star player and don't understand the reality of Baseball but all in all they will be true fans at heart btw I was at the game on Saturday and despite them only getting 3 hits and losing 6-0 there were more people at the game than expected the game was going on the same time the Broncos Preseason game was going on as well

I’m not even really a fan of baseball. However watching someone live a moment they’ve worked for their entire life is beautiful. Congratulations to this man.

It’s touching how proud his family is of him and watching them jumping out of their seats to cheer every step of the way 😊

Congratulations Wynton Bernard. What a long road you've been on to the majors but boy what an introduction to your abilities we saw here. Just glad that blind umpire's ridiculous call didn't rob you of the joy of your first major league hit.

I congratulate Wynton Bernard, as I’m sure there were plenty of times that this 10 years felt like 1000 years. One more American Dream realized! Love it.

😁 Had the privilege to see this young man play winter ball in the Australian Baseball League for the Brisbane Bandits. So happy to see his journey has made it to the promised land of the MLB with the Rockies. 👏🏻

And he looked like he was having fun doing it, the most important thing of them all

What a special moment. I love how all the Rockies players come over w/ big smiles on their faces to congratulate Mr. Bernard. I can't wait to see more of him in action this season and for many more to come! He's a real gem, and he has such a lovely family.

Thank you MLB on KZread for these clips. It doesn't matter what my hometown team is, because moments like these are just super exciting to watch. To have the whole stadium rooting for you and to have so many things happen for his at bat... 🥲 What a memory to have as a player and for his family!!!

no matter what struggles come with it when arriving at the destination the road to the show is well worth taking this in of itself is a victory worth any world series, even if only for him and now regardless of what happens next, he can tell anyone on Earth that he had an MLB career

Angel Hernandez is proud of the out call.

I'm happy for him. I saw his call to his mom and can see he's a good man raised by a great mom. I hope he has a long career. Congrats from Philly.

A great example of persistence! After 10 years the man arrives in the bigs! Nice job! Proves that of you work hard enough, you can achieve great things!
