Favorite player of all time. Done multiple school research projects on him. Wore #29 my whole baseball career. Saw his 3000th hit and 400th HR in person. 5 bobble heads, 14 baseball cards, 2 autographs, 3 jerseys, countless memories.

With numbers like that, you deserve to be a first ballot inductee to the “Adrian Beltre fan HOF”. It’s awesome you got to see him play and witness those milestones!

Such a good player and fun to watch. That Andrus kinsler Beltre infield was stacked.

The whole team was stacked. Even though they never won it all, the 2011 Rangers might be one of the most well rounded teams of all time. Elvis Andrus, Ian Kinsler, Adrian Beltre, Mike Napoli, Josh Hamilton, Nelson Cruz, Michael Young, Mitch Moreland, David Murphy, CJ Wilson, Derek Holland, Neftali Feliz, and probably more guys I’m forgetting. Not to mention Ron Washington at the helm.

As native Texan and Rangers fan we absolutely loved Adrian Beltre. Not one single rangers fan disliked the man and we appreciate his time with our team. He will always be one of the greatest Rangers of all-time.

Beltre’s career numbers are insane to begin with; 93 WAR, 3000+ hits, almost 500 home runs, etc. Then when you consider he had about 6-7 underwhelming seasons before he turned 30, and probably could have played a couple more solid seasons at the end of his career, it becomes even more remarkable. Very possibly the most underrated player of all time.

@Heathcoatman

Well....I mean he was never a power hitter, hitting 15, 20, 13, 21 and 23 homers in his first five full seasons. Then in his contract year he hit 48 and was suddenly barrel chested and hit more than double his career high in HR? If that isnt fishy to you, stick with the 'he underachieved" narrative.

Man, what a legend.

I love Adrian Beltre! i feel so fortunate that I got to see him get his 3,000th hit. Can't wait for him deliver his Hall of Fame speech!

One of my favorite players ever!! Coming from a lifelong Yankee fan.

I’m a baseball fan, and an Astros fan.. And I still named my dog Beltre.. Mad respect for a great ball player..

He played one season with the Red Sox and I was so bummed when he left for free agency after that season. He was a joy to watch.

Always loved his game. Good leader, so fun to watch, consistent, good defence and great longevity

When Beltre and Cruz went back to back in game 6 of the 2011 WS I died inside. I can only imagine how they felt when the Cardinals came back to win it.

His throwing was strange, but crazy effective. A lot of velocity from only a small amount of movement

Loved this guy in MLB The Show

Adrian Beltre is the player who got me to fall back in love with watching baseball. That man is joy incarnate and I'm so grateful we got to enjoy him for 8 years in Texas ❤💙❤

Was an honor and privilege to watch him play for my Rangers all those years. Was even there when he got his 3000th hit. My favorite player of all time.

I loved Beltre

Adrian was truly a joy to watch play.

So true. I loved to watch Beltre play. (and he really did play)

Something people ignored when criticizing Beltre's bat in Seattle was what a brutal park Safeco was for a right-handed hitter at the time. After the construction of Qwest Field next door, the wind patterns changed and it became almost impossible for a right-handed power hitter. Richie Sexson struggled in the same way at about the same time.

@calinator51

Жыл бұрын

It should be ignored because that had nothing to do with his struggles. Watching most of the games, he struggled to ever make solid contact and pitchers fed him a heavy dose of sliders low and away which he couldn't lay off of. Sexson was very solid his first year in Seattle but just fell apart striking out a ton and not being able to make contact after that first year. What happens a lot with hitters going to the Mariners is the park messes with their psyche that it's a pitchers park. I think after Seattle he just became more confident and matured as a hitter.

Thank you for this video. I'm dominican and a huge baseball fan. Beltre's one of my all time favorites, and his hilarious antics are a big reason why.

Not only is he the greatest third baseman in Rangers history, but he is also one of the greatest players in Rangers history and a surefire first-ballot Hall of Famer.

*_MTC - a great video (as usual), but you mistakenly say at about the _**_10:11_**_ mark that in 2017, Beltre achieved a career milestone of 5000 STOLEN bases!

Adrian Beltre is in one of my favorite categories of players: someone who is simultaneously an exceptional athlete and player but also someone who clearly has a deep love for the game and is willing to be silly sometimes.

Proud of Adrian 🇩🇴

Definitely entering the Hall as a Ranger…

As a Rangers fan, I thank you for this video

He was fun to watch for sure. Thank you for the laughs, Andre.

Great job with these videos man, I really think you should do more on the older players even guys like Willie Mays & Ted Williams so younger fans can get a better understanding and appreciation

His brief time on the Red Sox was great. Loved him so much.

Loved having him in Seattle. One of my favorite players to watch growing up

Adrian shops at the grocery store I work at fairly often, got a picture with him and have had a good conversation or 2 with him, legend.

he was great he won the fans respect .

I WENT TO A SOLID WEEK OF GAMES TO MAKE SURE I DIDNT MISS HIM HITTING THE 3K HIT GAME. HE GOT IT ON MY LAST NIGHT ...I WAS GONNA STAY OR GO TO THE GAME IF IT WAS AN AWAY GAME ..THATS HOW MUCH I LOVE THAT MAN

Very underrated player!

My favorite player of all time

Loved watching his antics with felix hernandez. Speaking of which, gotta make a video on felix

Great player who managed to bring joy to the game.

This video deserves more likes, if not for the great info, at least for the man it covered. Great work 👍

HOF lock. One of the best 3B to play who seemingly flies under the radar despite a quantifiably outstanding career

Saw him hit his 2999th hit in Arlington!!

Good guy for th game 95.1% will b in my mind fondly from now on

He's so charming!

He was something,made the game fun

One of my favorite, if not my favorite, season to watch growing up was when Beltre hit 48 hrs as a Dodger in his last season for us. He was so clutch. So likeable and easy to root for. Every game and every at bat I thought he was going to do something that was gonna lead us to a win. Even until now, I don't care that the Dodgers let alot of stars go and not resign them. Except for Beltre. THE ONLY ONE I felt that got away was Beltre. I wish he was a Dodger for life and he stayed in LA. Good times. Good memories.

I really enjoyed his time in Seattle. I feel like he could have played another year or two if he wanted to.

As a Ms fan I've never been a fan, but I've come to appreciate him more over time. Still think he's more of an accumulator vs great peak besides a few years, but he's definitely HOF material. I admit i am biased

Glad I got to see one of Beltre’s famous games in person and got to see hit 3000 on tv. Note: how do you get ejected for moving an on deck circle?😅 9:24 im just a couple rows back of where that camera was, best game ever

Beltre is baseball. Hes everything baseball should be and more.

The thing I love most about baseball is how much so many of the players clearly love the game too. Yeah, it's huge money, but it's also just a really fun game!

Huge AB fan! Nice vid, but you misstated 5,000 career SBs at the 10:12 mark - you meant Total Bases.

Adrián beltré is one of the reasons I’m a rangers fan. 11 years and counting

I love that you could see his playfulness as a rookie. So I actually belive him when he said he had gotten too serious.

All I knew of him was the look on his face after rewatching many replays of the 2011 world series. Wasn't necessarily a fan back then

M’s fan here who loves Beltre despite him being mediocre for our team and great for a division rival. Great video, but I’m surprised there’s no mention of Beltre’s strangest quirk, appealing his own check swings to the first base umpire.

My favorite 3rd baseman. 🤙🏼

No other hall of famer had a quieter first 10 seasons. Not that he's a hall of famer yet but we might as well call him one. He was so steady on his back half of his career.

Well done, man. Can't wait to see Beltre being elected to Cooperstown.

Good player. Hard to judge him given the era but good ball player all the same.

Beltre is my goat

Beltre is the only player that continuously pointed to the first base ump to check his own swings. I rarely saw it called against him.

My favorite off the field moment is when he accidentally appeared in a JCpenney commercial without anyone recognizing him.

10:12 My man Beltre had 5000 stolen bases? Ricky Henderson punchin air hearing this! 🤣🤣

He's a shoe in for a first ballot hall fame. Baseball these days, there is no consistency within players. I think Beltre is that man, he's more consistent on playing the field and batting. Plus, his love of the game will put him over the edge.

His HOF induction should be must watch TV. I'm hoping they rope in some former teammates and opponents to make the weekend an absolute show, just like he made every moment. Felix and Miggy will both be retired so get them there to do some fun stuff. Pujols will be there as well I'm sure. Andrus is a must too, even if he is still playing I hope he can make it.

He had a great friendship with Ryu.

10:13 5,000 career SB is insane

Vid on the sweeper pitch?

Good video . I’ll miss beltre

Man I stopped watching baseball when I couldn’t watch him and Elvis Andrus on the field at the same time. As a modern Rangers fan, he is my favorite player of all time.

Please make a 2021 Braves vid🙏

RIP Ken Caminti.

Love Betre.. a real life cartoon character

I would like an review of Carlos Delgado career.

I caught a foul ball (barehanded) off of him at Royals stadium about 6 years or so ago. Ball never hit the ground, I actually caught it. I moved seats at some point to sit by another family member a section or two over when I caught it. Crowd cheered, bucket list ✅

He is the second player with most played game at 3rd base with 2,759.

You should make a video on the king Felix even if it’s on the second channel He was a great pitcher and as a mariners fan I would love to see a video on him

Beltre was the first Dominican player to reach 3k hits? Wow, as many good Dominican players have gone thru the MLB I would have thought that stat would have already fallen!

10:13 “5,000 career stolen bases” 😂

So, not to belabor an obvious error, but Beltre doesn't have 5000 career stolen bases. He has 5000 career total bases. Great video, thank you :-)

I remember Beltre got ripped apart in the media. Especially after his contract year with the Dodgers when he went off and got the big deal with Seattle. He was labeled a disappointment in Seattle and called lazy. Adrian Beltre got the last laugh though. He deserves to be a first ballot Hall Of Famer. If Derek Jeter was a unanimous choice, Beltre should at least get inducted in his first year of eligibility

If you ask me who was the best I saw play a position, I'll come up with a few names for every position and couldn't possibly pick just one. Except for third base.

5k stolen bases, Rickey eat your heart out lol. I loved Adrian
