- philostrato, on 07/07/2008, -16/+21that's pretty sweet
- austang, on 07/07/2008, -2/+3we need this guy to play on the mariners with ichiro
- wickensworth, on 07/07/2008, -1/+10What's crazy is the slide-whistle sound was actual audio
- kukote, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2that's ugly sour. :(
- clarionhaze, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1welcome to the internets
- Detry, on 07/07/2008, -8/+478Funny.
But juuuuust a bit outside.- flogistan, on 07/07/2008, -23/+5Caught the corner. I knew someone would say that! Can you people enjoy nothing?
- nerdherder, on 07/07/2008, -5/+19No, shut up.
- coolcash2005, on 07/08/2008, -2/+4If you knew someone would say that, then you too noticed it.
- iNNeRKaoS, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1It's juuuuust a bit outside your sense of humor.
- Lucas123, on 07/07/2008, -8/+70Totally outside. That ump needs glasses. I don't care how cute the pitch was. If my team's batter was called out on a that outside ball, I'd be more than a little peeved.
- megamod, on 07/08/2008, -2/+26My dogs used to fall for that very same trick...they don't fall for it anymore =/.
- loggedout, on 07/08/2008, -0/+13It's hilarious. But to counter these points, the strike zone in Japan is wider. That was part of the speculation behind Dice-K's walk problems and the different ball size.
- theOster, on 07/08/2008, -2/+3different ball size...japanese...um..lol.
- RedS0x, on 07/08/2008, -1/+1I'm pretty sure someone told him...
- cvindustries, on 07/08/2008, -0/+13Reminds me of Mallory's pitch:

- elnerdo, on 07/08/2008, -0/+7Damnit, I knew it was coming, too.
Time to add oVI to my list...
uuiU, RHA0 and oVI.
- Synova, on 07/08/2008, -0/+11http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eDzJ_K9i_0&feature ...
- whorunbartertwn, on 07/08/2008, -0/+0Agreed that was way outside. He deserves the strike anyway.
- db0255, on 07/08/2008, -0/+4He called it a strike, because when you pitch it that slow, the strike zone gets huge. Not to mention there's no reason he couldn't have hit that pitch.
- robotderek42, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2Dugg for Bob Uecker reference.
- flogistan, on 07/07/2008, -23/+5Caught the corner. I knew someone would say that! Can you people enjoy nothing?
- Callik, on 07/07/2008, -30/+119I see what he did there
- frenchkick, on 07/07/2008, -19/+4it took me a while to see it....but yeah, i did too
- PabloMac, on 07/07/2008, -1/+25The batter can't say that.
- zimmermans, on 07/07/2008, -9/+14Thanks for sharing that insight, Callik.
- DrKickflip13, on 07/08/2008, -8/+5don't know why you're being dugg down. I dugg you up and dugg the ***** idiot Callik down
- alex80, on 07/08/2008, -6/+2bahaha i lol'd
- mugicha, on 07/08/2008, -3/+6I thought this comment had fallen out of favor on Digg.
- doen, on 07/08/2008, -1/+1of course you can see what he did there, it is, after all, a video
- diggimator, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1Is there any other way to take it in?
If you tasted what he did there, I would have been shocked.
- smartguy4932, on 07/07/2008, -13/+3Wow.
- jaseone, on 07/07/2008, -14/+7For a moment there I thought he was going to do a full on crane kick prior to the pitch now that would have been awesome!
- UsablePuddle, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1Then his own leg would be in the way. He would have to pitch over or around his leg!
- hotpuck6, on 07/07/2008, -6/+227Japanese baseball is such a serious sport.
- active1x0, on 07/07/2008, -18/+2Comment of the Week.
- dubbs688, on 07/07/2008, -1/+60So serious they don't allow fans in the stadium.
- flogistan, on 07/07/2008, -0/+9Their fans are invisible there. That happened in a real game.
- Pufflosz, on 07/07/2008, -2/+75Their fans must be ninjas
- SenatorPenguin, on 07/08/2008, -0/+17The seats are so expensive in Japanese games, that the vast majority of the fans sit way out in the bleachers. On top of that, the rich businessmen who can afford decent seats don't show up until 7PM or so, when they get off work.
I recently went to a Japanese ballgame that started at 6, and when we got there, we were the only people behind home plate, or anywhere in the infield. About halfway through the 4th inning, about a thousand slightly drunk businessmen entered. - DannyDriffs, on 08/25/2008, -1/+2Pirates FTW
- AquaOSX, on 07/08/2008, -1/+2Then I guess the Oakland A's are a Japanese baseball team.
- theysayjump, on 07/08/2008, -8/+4Far more entertaining than watching American baseball.
- Andrax77, on 07/08/2008, -5/+1So serious they won the baseball world cup.
- featherMARIO, on 07/07/2008, -10/+6That is pretty cool.
- 9bpm9, on 07/07/2008, -30/+9You could of not put the picture and I still would of known what it was. This video is old as sin.
- seventoes, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2Want a cookie?
- CorneliusStump, on 07/07/2008, -21/+343needs more tentacle penetration
- glitch452, on 07/07/2008, -16/+8*facepalm
- UserNull, on 07/08/2008, -12/+5Desu
- cl0n3x, on 07/08/2008, -13/+2That's what she said
- draftz, on 07/08/2008, -4/+1*facepalm
- FreshPineSent, on 07/08/2008, -5/+10*facedesk
- ophello, on 07/08/2008, -3/+69are you lost? this is digg. 4chan is down the hall and to the left. then takes the stairs to your moms basement.
- babbitblob, on 07/08/2008, -1/+1are you blind? this is 4chan. digg is on the floor shredded to pieces by the zombies of /b/. Goddamn meme-spouting *****.
- copypastry, on 07/08/2008, -4/+2gb2/b/
- smellytim, on 07/08/2008, -0/+3you could say that about anything.
- tylerbreton, on 07/07/2008, -11/+1Dugg and dugg.
- TheToecutter, on 07/07/2008, -5/+78I would have totally swung at that.
- gradivus, on 07/07/2008, -2/+4I would have roped that bastard for a stand up double.
- gmoney1, on 07/08/2008, -0/+14i'd hit it.
- vikblazin, on 07/07/2008, -14/+1o dude. epic fail.
- BrosDuCK, on 07/07/2008, -0/+5Get back to Youtube.
- vikblazin, on 07/08/2008, -1/+1whadya mean. the batter didnt hit it. it must have been going like 25 miles per hour
- BigLou, on 07/07/2008, -4/+129Is this even in a real game? What's with those benches? Japanese culture frightens and confuses me!!!??!
- JohnFrum, on 07/07/2008, -0/+49No it wasn't a real game and he isn't a real player. I forget his name but he's a Japanese comedian.
Notice the laugh track?- danz32, on 07/07/2008, -0/+3There are no fans in the stands!
- joshuajargon, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1that kinda rhymes
- robdiggity, on 07/07/2008, -10/+2PikachuIchooseyouoooooOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH????
- GliTCH82, on 07/08/2008, -1/+1Ksao -_-
- ghostoftomjoad, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1Is that a question? I can see that your confused, yes
- pedepy, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1you know, it's a fake game (the stands are empty?) - but he did pull it off .. didnt he ? ...
- smellytim, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2I'm Ron Burgundy?
- mikebb79, on 07/12/2008, -0/+0Dugg for the "Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer" reference.
- JohnFrum, on 07/07/2008, -0/+49No it wasn't a real game and he isn't a real player. I forget his name but he's a Japanese comedian.
- mctom987, on 07/07/2008, -5/+26Dugg for showing a dugout.
- Dylson, on 07/08/2008, -3/+1Oh you like that huh?
- XxLindyxX, on 07/07/2008, -5/+148Too bad it was a ball...
- otto989, on 07/07/2008, -5/+29barr
- christopheles, on 07/08/2008, -4/+2I thought he signaled strike. ***** Japanese umpires!
- DannoSpeaks, on 07/08/2008, -1/+8He did signal strike... But it was a ball. ***** Japanese umpires!
- CrazyDEX, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1Yes... his Japanese Pokecard stats say his Super Awesome Mega Pitch also comes with +3 umpires
- letitbleed62, on 07/07/2008, -9/+24defiantly a ball but still cool
- Furkle, on 07/07/2008, -0/+30Indeed, that ball is determined and dead set against anyone that says it isn't a ball. Such a rebel.
- trance, on 07/07/2008, -5/+5that ball was indeed defiant. in fact, it defied the laws of baseball ;)
- rgodfrey, on 07/07/2008, -3/+5So true. Despite everyone in the stadium (except the batter) rooting for a strike, the baseball was defiant. The umpire, defying the defiance, called it a strike anyway.
- jerrycurley, on 07/08/2008, -1/+2OK look...once one person makes a joke about the original poster typing defiantly instead of definitely, it ceases to be funny when others do it.
- IntellEJent, on 07/08/2008, -0/+7http://d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y.com/
- mostlybadfly, on 07/10/2008, -1/+0http://d-e-f-i-n-a-t-l-y.xom/
- Onion575, on 07/07/2008, -15/+8Lol, makes baseball worth watching.
- TheSuperunknown, on 07/08/2008, -1/+2They digg you down but they know it's true.
- republicker, on 07/07/2008, -5/+26Nice call ump.
- virtualonliner, on 07/07/2008, -8/+5Those crazy Japanese!! Never cease to amaze...
- soccaparker, on 07/07/2008, -4/+36That was a lawlball
- gametavern, on 07/07/2008, -2/+25That was wayyyy high and outside, yet still a strike? He should have blasted it outta the park.
- SoulGrub, on 07/08/2008, -1/+0I don't think anyone could have reacted that quickly
- dmason, on 07/07/2008, -6/+14Balk!
- jerrycurley, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1Do you have any idea what a balk even is?
Obviously not.
- jerrycurley, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1Do you have any idea what a balk even is?
- IanPR, on 07/07/2008, -3/+4There has to be some kind of rule against that...
- JT114881, on 07/08/2008, -0/+10Its called "Strikezone"
- healthyapples, on 07/07/2008, -6/+1The laughter and over all response to the pitch was funnier then the actual pitch.
- FizzanoMatrix, on 07/07/2008, -6/+1Come on!
- kplayr, on 07/07/2008, -14/+3obviously fake... there's a stage set up on the field and there's 0 people in the stands, oh and it was clearly a ball... and the pitcher (esp a japanese one who would be very humble) would never so that on a strikeout.
- babaduchi, on 07/07/2008, -1/+6thanks captain obvious.
this clip is from a game show.
notice the artificial audience laughter? - daebat, on 07/08/2008, -1/+2yeah, you're an idiot kplayr. by the way you spelled player wrong in your name.
- babaduchi, on 07/07/2008, -1/+6thanks captain obvious.
- gwgrayson, on 07/07/2008, -13/+3Fake.
- daebat, on 07/08/2008, -1/+1Fake? wtf is fake about it? it's obviously not a real game but a game show and the guy above you said the same thing. (shakes his head in disappointment).
- CheeseNRice, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1It was photoshopped.. that's what's fake.
- FK0123, on 07/07/2008, -15/+92Oldest. Pitch. Ever.
- Rudy165, on 07/08/2008, -5/+6Agreed, how has it taken so long for somebody to say something?
- AngeloM3, on 07/08/2008, -1/+4AND it wasn't even in a real game... for some type of game show.
- LBobRife, on 07/07/2008, -10/+4If you played in any little league you figured out how to throw like that. If you decide to throw it in a real game, it's basically giving the batter a free hit.
- AWBoy666, on 07/07/2008, -3/+4Weren't all those seats empty? Is this a pro game or what?
- BreatheRhetoric, on 07/08/2008, -0/+3it looks like some kind of tv show rather then an actual japanese baseball game
- XPrivateXRyanX, on 07/07/2008, -8/+4Lol. Those crazy japanese.
- DJWingMan, on 07/07/2008, -5/+84We're ***** in the Olympics.
- DeCePTioN34, on 07/08/2008, -0/+7N baseball in the olympics They took it out before the last one
- gimmeslack12, on 07/07/2008, -8/+7Looks like very few Diggers have played more than 1 year of baseball growing up. C'mon, didn't your Dad show you guys this when you were 10?
- FutureEng, on 07/08/2008, -1/+4You're suggesting that Diggers have gone outside
- Tyrghast, on 07/08/2008, -0/+5Oh no man, there are bears outside.
- FutureEng, on 07/08/2008, -1/+4You're suggesting that Diggers have gone outside
- ObeseSnake, on 07/07/2008, -4/+1Only works the first time. Love to see someone just kill his second attempt at that *****.
- fadetoone, on 07/07/2008, -18/+192Wrong. This is the coolest pitch ever:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2MjTDWCMII- teddyrux, on 07/07/2008, -1/+132Whoever edited that scene is a complete douchebag.
- Shawn4168, on 07/08/2008, -2/+12What's so wrong with it? Obviously "Noble Productions" arranged, choreographed, and filmed this, so allow them to take credit where credit is due. Geez.
oops, almost forgot the /sarcasm tag. - fadetoone, on 07/08/2008, -0/+3Agreed, but I didn't find a better version within my short time period of searching, so I settled for that.
- Shawn4168, on 07/08/2008, -2/+12What's so wrong with it? Obviously "Noble Productions" arranged, choreographed, and filmed this, so allow them to take credit where credit is due. Geez.
- Vvolf, on 07/07/2008, -0/+32thought of this pitch immediately too! and yeah that edit is horrible
- otros, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2what's the call on that? ball? or the pitch is repeated?
- kosmoX, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2It would be a deadball (no pun intended, poor birdy). Basically it is repeated.
- hotpuck6, on 07/08/2008, -0/+4Boom! Headshot!
- Andrewe1, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1lol, I remember seeing a picture of that in the baseball hall of fame at Cooperstown.
- ComradeRikhi, on 07/08/2008, -1/+1Yup because of that pitch, where I live, hitting a cup in ruit and knocking it off the table is now called "Randy Johnson"-ing it.
- teddyrux, on 07/07/2008, -1/+132Whoever edited that scene is a complete douchebag.
- RowersAlmanac, on 07/07/2008, -7/+2Did anyone else actually think the beginning wind-up with the epic music was the best part of the video?
- Shagmire, on 07/07/2008, -6/+1ker-plunk!
- thehemi, on 07/07/2008, -16/+7Cool pitch, but baseball still sucks.
- web2pointYo, on 07/07/2008, -2/+109http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFvp7kMraAw

- Ryan166, on 07/08/2008, -0/+5Dugg for no canned laughter, and no goofy sound effects.
- CrimsonBlur, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2When athletes were classy and baseball was fun...
- twishart, on 07/07/2008, -4/+20Needs more HADOKEN
- sizzzzlerz, on 07/07/2008, -1/+8That thing wasn't close to being a strike but umpire-san punched the guy out anyway.
- woofers07, on 07/07/2008, -3/+1High and outside
- ProKid, on 07/07/2008, -1/+5I think I speak for everyone when I say,"I didn't expect that."
- bluestargalaxy4, on 07/07/2008, -2/+14I was waiting for a kamayamaya wave, but that was cool too.
- Justeroo, on 07/08/2008, -0/+8Kamehameha*
- krogothwolf, on 07/08/2008, -0/+2I was going to do that, but I couldn't figure out a way to put it without seeming like a total jerk. DAMN YOU FUNMATION AND YOUR WEAK ORIGINAL ENGLISH DUB!!!
- Justeroo, on 07/08/2008, -0/+8Kamehameha*
- PullingTeeth, on 07/07/2008, -2/+2Is there anything they do that isn't amazing?
- kawaiirobo, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1yes, and in that regard, I must remind you that somethings in this world can never be unseen.
- pa0l, on 07/07/2008, -3/+3how silly, the ball slipped out of his hand before he could throw it :/
- SniperZ, on 07/07/2008, -3/+11That wasn't a strike.
- thegbe, on 07/07/2008, -3/+5where's the psi storm?
- Billistic, on 07/07/2008, -1/+2I don't think you have the balls.
- blu3bird, on 07/07/2008, -1/+1where is the crowd?
- paul2112, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1wow you are a retard
- TBBucs, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1I'm guessing either in the stands or taking a *****.
- mohtasham, on 07/08/2008, -1/+2Who watches baseball. It's hella boring. Only stupid American watch boring games.
