For some reason when I think of "getting gunned out" I always think of Ankiel. Thank you for making this video.

From 60 ft 6 in away, he lost his ability to find home plate, but from 300 to 350 feet away, the third baseman or the catcher do not have to move their glove!

Yep!!💯

The runner couldn't believe his mind on the first throw on the vid. He was faster than hell and still got thrown out. Impressive!

With all the bullshit sports underdog movies out there that have to stretch the facts, they need to make one about this guy. The road he took to come back and what he did was amazing

They did make a 45-min video detailing his career. When he returned to St Louis as an outfielder he hit a HR in his first game back. Manager Tony LaRussa was emotional about it. He almost never shows emotion.

The greatest Left handed OF arm in baseball history.

With the price of admission. A lot of strong arms in MLB but very few strong and as accurate as Ankiel’s.

The arc of the ball he throws is awesome.

I was at the game when he made his debut as a pitcher. He was throwing in the mid 90’s with a devastating curveball. When he took his 1st AB and I saw his swing, I said to me buddy” To bad he’s not an outfielder, he looks like he can hit too”. Little did we know. Ankiel will always be a favorite in St. Louis. A movie should be made about his life, it’s both tragic and triumphant.

He wrote a book that's worth reading.

This video tells me that trying to take the extra base on Ankiel was just as bad an idea as doing so against Pudge in his prime.

Cant find the strike zone from 60ft but paints the black from 250ft with frozen ropes lol he's the baseball version of Mark Wahlberg in The Other Guys, "I'm a peacock you gotta let me fly!"

He's got to be the most accurate and strongest arm of any outfielder ever to play the game.

He's really good but I think Roberto Clemente and jose guillen had better arms But he's But he's definitely top 5

2nd throw, cool how the 3rd baseman faked the ball not being thrown until the last minute.

Half of these are Ankiel making up for Worth's errors

For real. Werth didn't have a terrible career, but he's a fumbling, stumbling fool in lots of highlights videos

A lesser man would have retired Rick Ankiel said fuck that I'll just throw strikes from centerfield

With reviews these days I'm not sure these were all actually outs. Looks like the ball made it before the runner but the tag was late on some of these.

Name a player who has a better arm. I’ll wait.

All these guys trying to run to 3rd base is just poor risk management. They should know that Rick Ankiel has an elite throwing arm, and 3rd base is the absolute worst base to get thrown out at. I know the conventional wisdom is that you don’t want to make the first out or the last out at 3rd. But I would take it a step further and say that you don’t want to get thrown out at 3rd, period. Unless of course it’s a force-out, if you’re getting thrown out at 3rd, you’re doing something wrong.
