Let's Remember How Good Richie Sexson Was
Рет қаралды 47,094
6 ай бұрынOn the surface, he's nothing more than a funny baseball name. But looking deeper into it, Richie Sexson was one of the best power hitters of the 2000s, and deserves some recognition for it.

Please give me credit for HARASSING you to make this video. I’ve been asking for years. You’re welcome

“Let’s turn the clock back to 1993 now, which is somehow over 20 years ago” is a Philomena Cunk type quote
@SONICX1027
I hope Richie Sexson comes to MLB the Show because he deserves his own cards
@moonhawk_
I never realized the 2004 Diamondbacks had both 6' 7" Sexson AND 6' 10" Randy Johnson. That's 13.5ft of pure intimidation!
@jamesesterline
Sexson was a beast in Power Pros
@Jon.Coppernoll
Richie Sexson was my first favorite player. My dad took me to four Brewers games in 2001 and Richie homered in all four of them. I was 8 years old and was just starting to understand the game. Seeing a 6'7" giant make Bernie Brewer go down the slide so many times was the coolest thing in the world to me.
@acornsucks2111
Richie was allegedly not the most likable guy, but he was certainly not in Barry's category.
@chrislewis5069
People won’t believe this but Richie was friends with my neighbor growing and they both went to prairie high school. My dad coached against him. Look it up.
@alexvoigt9204
That 99 Indians lineup was mega loaded. Manny knocked in 165, Robbie Alomar knocked in 120, Sexson and Thome both knocked in 100, plus Justice, Lofton and Vizquel were all plus hitters. I believe they’re the last team to score 1,000 runs.

93 is definitely over 20 years ago, it's even over 30 years ago!
@cdfs2822
I love how the Jolly Olive always talks about all of these forgotten players from when I was growing up. I always look forward to these videos
@paulie9483
In the early 00s as a tall, thin high school first baseman from Milwaukee (Richie is only 1/4 of a $5 footlong taller than me), Sexson was my hero. He was a phenom with the Crew and I was heartbroken when he was traded. I'm glad to see him get some due with this vid.
@organic4k
that 2008 topps richie sexson card is forever burned into my memory. lyle overbay, adam dunn, grady sizemore and jack cust also randomly pop into my thoughts from time to time 💀
@andygreeley5196
In 07 and 8 there were bars in Seattle (Norm's was one I think) that had a weeknight special where the beers only cost Richie Sexson's batting average x 10.
@sixfourrecords
Thank you so much for the video, Jolly. Your sentiment at the beginning sums up my experience perfectly. As a lifelong Brewers fan, Richie Sexson was one of the few bright spots of those teams during my childhood. He’s remained my favorite Brewer ever since and I never thought he got credit for how good he was in his prime. Best video you’ve done to date.
@jackcoogan310
My 7th birthday party was at Richie Sexson Bobblehead Day at Miller Park. He’ll always hold a special place in my baseball heart.
@slim3d
I quite literally saw Richie Sexson's name on Reddit on morning, and later that day this video was up on KZfaq. Richie Sexson was one of my favorite players growing up that wasn't on my favorite team.
@theman1412
I remember him hitting the flagpole in dead center at Minute Maid Park, it was in play even though he blasted it over 450 feet. 😊
@118JThompson
Richie Sexson was on a Griffey Junior baseball game on the N64. That was my introduction to the player. He became one of my favorites because he had a huge plate indicator and MASHED.
