Who do you think he hit it off? His brother. The most homeruns hit by a player with the last name starting with an H? Both had 382 and the same last name, Ryan and Frank.

This is really really sad!! I actually knew his dad and have met him when i was a kid. We lived next to tigers stadium. My pops worked there. I teared up when he retired!!!

I've always loved just how alike Prince Fielder's career was to his father's. They both had 50-home run seasons, they both won the Home Run Derby, they were both plus-sized power hitters, they retired with the exact same amount of homers, and they even both played for Detroit at some point during their careers.

I really like the new style of this video! It brings an interesting take never seen before in any KZread video. It’s very well done, and it shows how many ways you can tell the same story while still being entertaining every time! 😎 Great work, you two!!! ❤️

Watching on mobile could you just add timestamps in the description for things like this? It's neat and interesting just annoying on mobile to skip around

Cecil Fielder career Home Runs : 319 Prince Fielder career Home Runs : 319

Prince was my favorite player as a kid. As a big kid, he gave me inspiration in sports.

"Why should I not be happy? Because I'm not playing? It sucks that happened, but things happen to people every day. It doesn't mean you have to be sad for the rest of your life... If somebody handles something ending with grace, if somebody tries to enjoy their life afterward, people gravitate towards that and it becomes a success story." “You don't have to have a perfect ending to be happy. Happy is what you make it." -Prince Fielder, 2017

The non-linear choose your own adventure format is good! Hope to see you guys do this way more often in the future.

Do what happened to Grady Seizemore

I'm glad I haven't seen this time-jump style in any of your other videos.

Look, i get that you were trying to tell a story in a different way and i respect it. However, it was incredibly annoying to get engaged in the story only to have an abrupt pause every few minutes

I like the choose your adventure style, but would shorten the length of the description used each time. It made the flow of the story slow a little too much. Great video though. I really liked it.

My dad's very first blue jays game in Toronto, Cecil fielder hit a home run for the visitors. Roughly 20 years later at my first jays game in TO, I watched his son do the same. Life is strangely beautiful like that.

Stark raving sports is now my favorite KZread channel. This channel is very underrated.

LETS GO! Super excited to watch this!

I think that's by far the most heartbreaking retirement speech I've ever seen. You can tell that his entire life baseball was always an important part and now for the first time he has to confront a world without it. He didn't just look sad in that speech, he looked afraid. I hope he's found peace in his life and wish him the best. I was a fan of his dad as a kid and an even bigger fan of him. If he could've had a few more healthy seasons and/or a WS ring or two i think he'd be looked at as a guy who would've been getting in the HoF in a few years (even with a couple more seasons/rings I don't think he would've been first ballot material but likely one of those guys who gets in after several years on the list).

Matt's most confusing video

Great video bro. Been a Ranger’s fan since birth and having Prince on our team was so much fun. All the games I went to just radiated fun by the team. Always playing jokes on each other etc. Prince just gave a big brother vibe to the other guys.

The Prince was one of my absolute favorite players when I was a middle schooler just getting into baseball. He never played for a team in my state, or any team I particularly liked or watched. But he was the definition of a fun player to watch. When I think of my first introduction to baseball as a kid, I think of Prince Fielder and a handful of his contemporaries. Prince, if you're reading this... you're way cooler than your dad.

Wow, didn't know what his dad did. Was a fan of Cecil as a young kid, loved watching him crush the ball. Really loved watching Prince grow in the MLB and would be chasing a HOF nomination it it wasn't for injuries but we all know that

Took the foreshadow route and really enjoyed how creative it was to have a create your own adventure feel to a video keep up the great work!

I'm a Cubs fan but he was still one of my favorite players. In 2011 I caught a batting practice HR ball hit by him in Cincinnati. A year later in 2012 I able to randomly meet him outside Wrigley. Pretty sad hearing how an injury forced him to retire. He was probably on his way to the hall of fame.

it was hard watching that interview from prince again. Being a Ranger fan, he was one of my favorite players to ever watch and I am so glad that i had the chance to watch him in person.

When I was a little kid prince was my favorite player. I doesn’t know anything about this. My family is a tigers fan. Now I’m a astros fan because I followed verlander and not my favorite player is Jose. This is so sad that I found this out at the age of 12 that my first favorite player career was ended by injury😢

I did this linearly but i like that you went bandersnatch on this! Not all the time but i'll definitely have to do it next time.

Prince will always be my favorite player. I remember when I was a kid I would play mlb 2k on my Xbox. 2k12 playing as the brewers with prince and Braun or later 2k games with miggy on the tigers I just loved everything about the guy. It’s so sad to see his career taken from him. I wish him all the best in life and I’m hoping to see some “Fielders” in the mlb soon

I felt that this was a great way to represent Prince's amazing career. I remember watching him hit home runs, and his diving stops at first. Can you do a What happened to Jose Bautista?

Could you share the link of that star wars video you mentioned at the beginning?

I remember watching Prince for the Tigers from 2012-2014. He was a monster, I loved him to pieces, he mashed us to a world series. His Texas Days made me sad and when he retired, I was crushed. The only other day that hurt me as much as that day was Fernandez' crash, that day crushed me as well.

I knew Prince in the minors. He was not only a tremendous hitter, he was a born leader and a very tough guy. Prince arrived at AAA at the age of 20 and was almost immediately the clubhouse leader. He worked every day, didn't screw around and worked on all aspects of his game. He WORKED at being able to hit to all fields. Prince was also incredibly tough. We played the Cardinals AAA team (Memphis) and they threw at Prince. Prince started jawing at their dugout and walking toward their entire team and not a single Memphis player would leave the dugout. One thing to remember, every player Prince collided with, whether it was an opposing player at home plate or his own teammate, that person was out of the game and missed at least one more game. Had the injury not cut his career short, he would have been a Hall of Famer.

Please make more videos in this format I don’t even like baseball like that but this made it interesting !

This video made me cry, I remember being a sophomore in high school on my varsity team when he retired, I distinctly remember crying when I saw the video of him announcing his retirement. It was guys like him and Pablo Sandoval that I had looked up to because I had never been the tallest or fastest, and I always had a bit of heft to me, but I always wanted to got out and give it my all whether as a fielder or a hitter. I always looked up to Prince. To this day I still want to get a Prince field Rangers jersey even though I am a Giants fan.

I as a fan of Prince. He and I are about the same age, about the same body build, and played the same position (but I was a local fun league team talent while he was major league talent). I enjoyed watching him and to me he was like the patron saint of big guys playing baseball very well. Although it was a sad how his career ended, I cherish the great years he had and thankful I was able to watch them.

I watched him in 2005 when he played for the 2005 Nashville Sounds! Since Nashville doesn’t have any closer baseball teams, I was lucky enough to see Gary Pettis, Corey Hart, Prince Fielder, Pat Borders, and Rickie Weeks play

Prince fielder was one of my childhood hero’s as a young brewers fan. I remember on my 9th birthday he hit a walkoff bomb back in ‘08 when the brewers willed themselves in the final week into the playoffs to end a decades long playoff drought. That moment was so special to me I remember going to bed so happy

I remember watching young Prince Fielder, Ryan Braun and and Tony Gwynn Jr play when there was a minor league team in Beloit, WI. You could see the greatness, even way back then...

Man that interview when he had to say goodbye to his career made me cry the first time I saw it, and even now...

What happened to Jason Bay or Jacoby Ellsbury video?

I think it would be worth going back to this one to add chapters in this

Just gonna say I really like that he’s switching up how he presents videos, this idea is pretty original

As a lifelong hardcore Tigers fan, that 2013 team keeps me awake at night. How did we not win a ring with Scherzer, Verlander, Fielder, Cabrera, V Mart, Porcello, Anibal Sanchez, Torri Hunter.

As a brewer fan, watching Yelich shatter his kneecap and Prince give his retirement speech ... rough video ... really rough.

I'm a Tigers fan, and I saw Cecil Fielder hit his 50th and 51st home runs in 1990. That was a great day. Nobody had hit 50 home runs since the 1970's. I was rooting for Prince in 2012 and 2013, and he did a great job. It was indeed kind of sad that Prince did not perform well in the 2012 World Series. As it was, a lot of other things went wrong for the Tigers in that World Series. The funniest part about it is when Prince stole a nacho from a Tigers fan.

Hadn't seen the interview since it happened. At the time when I realized I loved baseball more than just a game, it was early 2006, and that season my Cards won the Series and that season was the year of Albert Pujols and Ryan Howard. I know Albert is still semi able to play, but to realize that that trio of bombers all had their talent stripped by abnormal injury is kind of a blow to the gut. Those three were my guys. 2007-2011 was a blast whenever Phillie or Miluakee came to town.

Prince Fielder is one of the main reasons why I started watching baseball and the Brewers. I went to the game when he hit #50 in 2007 and seeing how his career ended so suddenly made me very sad because I watched him as a young player.

My former math teacher used to have the ball of prince's first ever autograph that he got himself when prince was like 8. But then his son accidentally thew it down a revene.

Fielder could've still been playing.

i love this idea. keep making videos like this. i do wish the transitions were quicker.

I went to the opening home stand of the 2006 season in Milwaukee. Prince was really struggling and I liked Lyle Overbay. I kept saying he needs to go back to the minors. I’ve never been more happy to be wrong. Prince is an icon of Milwaukee baseball and I am glad I got to see him play.

Watching Prince destroy pitches is one of the most satisfying and awe inspiring visuals I have ever witnessed. Watching his retirement speech broke my heart

I couldn't believe it when he signed with the Tigers.. I had zero expectation that they'd land him. Even though it didn't end with a world series, he still came in crushed it. It's unfortunate he went through personal drama during the playoffs and wasn't able to play on his usual level, but it was still a treat to watch him bat behind Miggy, and I'll look back on those seasons fondly. Wish him the best.

You can tell he loves baseball. I hope he can become a hitting coach or find some role on the field. He truly loves the game

I actually like the concept, it'll take some polish, but it's a pretty neat idea and I can appreciate that. Going to be a matter of execution, as well as keeping it limited to this sort of topic, but there's something interesting here.

The press conference was one of the saddest moments I can recall in all my sports watching years. Loved watching Prince play.

One of my favorite players ever. Him and his father. Thanks so much for this video

I went through spinal fusion in my back (I broke two vertebrae in my spine in an accident). I can empathize with that Prince Fielder went through, because I've been through it. I can walk and run, but I haven't been the same since.

Great video guys. You should also do these for players who went from being utter garbage to Amazing players.

As a Cardinals fan I saw a lot of Prince. Even though I did not like the Brewers I respected the hell out of him. Not to mention I saw him win the HR Derby in St.Louis in 2009 and it was a great show.

I was never much of a baseball guy and i was raised as a pittsburgh fan but watching that interview is hard. That is a grown man crying because he is being forcibly ripped from the one thing he loves and can always count on. It is the only thing he knows and has been there from day one. There are few things in life that can bring that much pain to a person.

He had one of the best swings , loved watching him in the home run derbys
