This scene is really sad honestly. Growing up with friends and then time just passes by and everyone is moved on just hits my heart for some reason

“Bertram got really into the 60s and we never saw him again.” I know what that means 😂

I never understood this scene as a kid. I was like, why would they ever stop hanging out? Now as an adult, I realize years have gone by since I’ve seen my childhood friends. That’s just part of life, you become close with your buddies when you’re little, and then everyone grows up and moves away/ loses touch. While it is sad, I can’t help but smile remembering the fun times we had together. I hope to give my kids a childhood like my parents gave me.

I just realized that Bertram became an addict. No wonder he was into chewing tobacco as a kid.

I guess only a very few like me thought this ending was sad. Losing friends so they can be in a better place or have a better future.

WHen they vanished ... I felt that.... I wish we all could stay kids forever .. Kids rock

At one point in your childhood,you and your neighborhood friends all went out to play together ONE.......LAST.......TIME And none of you even knew it

So out of all the boys, Benny was the only one that went on to play Major League Baseball, even though Kenny got as far as Triple AAA ball. But it's no surprise to any of the boys since Benny loved baseball and was fully committed to it. They knew he'd go on to bigger and better baseball. Of course, the actor who played Benny didn't go on to play in MLB, he went on to become a firefighter.

"I was the last one that moved away, and went I did. The Sandlot was still there. After Benny pickled The Beast, his reputation spreaded all over town. From then on, he was known as Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez. And the nickname stuck with him for the rest of his life."

Damn, this hits much harder now than compared to when I was a kid.

I'm honestly really happy that Timmy and Tommy ended up working together as adults like honestly most siblings just leave each other behind and only ever see each other on holidays or something but Timmy and Tommy were like "No, we're not leaving each other behind, that's just mean."

This scene always gives me goosebumps

So Hercules is 199 years old in dog years. In human years, he's 54.73 years old.

That's the bad part of life, you're childhood is over, you graduate from high school and it's goodbye. All your friends go their separate ways and you never see or hear from them again. All you have left is the memories, all those good times together, lost forever.

Absolutely wild that Wendy waited for Squints to be legal age and had 9 kids with him lmao

You know him as the great hambino

We gonna ignore that Squints wound up giving the pool girl 9 babies...

The Sandlot 4: The Search For Bertram

It’s makes you wonder why the good times are always memories

I, like many others have my own “sandlot”. Early 90s, friends in the neighborhood getting together to play Super Nintendo, sleepovers, hide and seek at night, and of course, sports. Then one friend moved away. Then another. My father’s job sent him overseas. It broke my heart and signaled the end of my childhood. We don’t keep in touch anymore, even though we’re on Facebook, but whenever I visit my old sandlot, I can do nothing but smile at the great times I had with them, thank them for the lifelong memories and wish them nothing but the best wherever they are.

The nostalgia. It burns.

Can't wait for the upcoming disney+ show when they all reunite

I loved this movie when I was a little little kid and its one of the best baseball movies

Even if you don’t like baseball, you need to watch this movie.

Remember hero’s get remembered but legends never die

"Bertram got really into the 60s and no one ever saw him again" transltaion "Bertram became a hippie and got heavy into drugs and subsequently died from an overdose" Remember Bertram had the chewing tobacco he swiped from his old man when they all threw up on the tilt a whirl. Another fun fact is that when they all throw up and spit the tobacco out of their mouths, Bertram is the only one that didnt spit his out. He was sick af but he kept it in. Kinda dark for a kids movie.

this scene always conveyed some sadness to me, you and your childhood friends grow up and everyone goes their own way, some go very far others not so much, but even if the communication is maintained... the feeling that nothing is like before it continues to hit our chest

We all just wish we could go back to those sunny childhood days when you had nothing to worry about

As a kid I didn’t get emotional watch this scene . But as an adult it’s a sad fact you and your friends eventually grow up and go separate ways and many times never see or talk to each other again.

This part of the movie hurts man. When I was a young kid I always wondered how life would move on and go by like this while watching this scene. Now it has. 😢 If you're a kid and you're reading this, you should stop right now and think about who you look up to and don't be a follower. Don't try to fit in. Figure out who you are!!! I know a lot of people who have lived and died in this life trying to fit in and never figured out who they were because they were a follower and ended up dead due to wrong choices... It's so hard to get through to Young people.... 😢 Find out who you are and what you like...

I've found some of my childhood friends and reconnected. Not facebook, but phone calls, letters, shipped gifts, emails, meals when we are in town. For a guy that lives 1400 miles from his hometown, this is a great thing.

I remember watching this from my earliest childhood, around 6-7 years old and up until my early teens when you'd still see this movie at blockbuster or something haha.... I'm in my early 30's now, and this scene makes me sad and happy at the same time..... sad because it's all true, all the precious friendships i made in the 90's as a kid, playing sports outside with all the neighbors kids and everyone being friendly with each other, even the neighborhood BBQ was all true as in this movie.... and i would give anything to have those days back..... we never would realize as a kid that we would want this feeling to last forever because we miss it very much....we were in such a rush to be older.. and we would just brush it off when adults said "stay a kid as long as you can.. trust me" The part that makes me happy when i revisit these clips and movies again is for one moment... i can feel that deep spark in me of the happiness i had as a kid with all my friends.... It's a small moment but ill never forget the feeling.. and i hope the rest of you know what that feeling feels like. In case no one has told you lately, I hope you're doing well and life is treating you the best it can, if I was your neighbor i'd throw some football with you just to feel young again. Have a good one folks

This scene makes me sad again, longing for the simple times when me and my friends used to escape home late at night and just get up to random hangouts doing dumb stuff. Saddens me that we have all moved on, but I wish them nothing but the best, and hopefully they think about the times we had together the same way I do.

I remember this movie it’s like I am 7 again

for those familiar with Sly Cooper, the 3rd games final cutscene is a homage of this movie's ending

I got really into the 90's, but people saw me again and I grew out of it.

is nobody going to talk about their reactions to 0:39?

Hamilton Porter became a professional wrestler, "The Great Hambeno." In the original script it says that Hamilton went to college and became a pediatrician. Timmy and Tommy became an architect and contractor who started out designing playground equipment and treehouses but invented mini malls. In the original script it says that Timmy and Tommy went on to build skyscrapers.

"Squints grew up to be a pipe layer..."

Kenny was the second best player on team if he played Triple A ball

What it's like growing up as a kid and seeing all your friends move away.

This is just really relatable. I thought as a kid, losing friends could never happen. Then it hit me like a rock.

The greatest movies about kids enjoying and playing baseball and having a good time.

Still one of the best movies of all time, and is my all time favorite movie!

Grew up in the sixties.Yes kids it was really like this.Pickup games with no one KEEPING score or stats.Just played until the street lights came on. Sorry to say I don't see this anymore in the area where I live.Too many leagues,too many adults and too much "organized"youth sports programs.Why can't people leave well enough alone?We played for fun not for competition.Few of us got hurt either physically or emotionally from the games by being pushed by adults trying to relive their glory years.

This is that movie I remember very very well from my childhood.. I always remembered this scene but I never watched the movie again, around 10 years after watching it, on a Friday (snow day) at 3:21 it popped into my head and I watched this epic scene again, probably for the last time… lovely movie

It’s no surprise Bertram “really got into the 60s”..probably became the ultimate hippie and overdosed on drugs

Like most in the comments, this makes me so sad. When you grow up, you all grow apart from your friends. I'm 31 now with two kids. I lost contact with just about everybody I was close with in school. Except for one, but she just moved out of state for a job opportunity.

You know what makes this scene so good is the fact that all the boys were extremely good at baseball and all of them could’ve gone professional but they didn’t, except for Benny who actually loved and adored the game, yet they still ended up with really successful lives, idk about Bertram, but the point is they all moved on from the game

probably the sadest part is when hevsats. barterm got really into the 60s & noone really ever saw him again.

One of the best movies of all time

The greatest movies of all time

Can we just talk about Hercules in his shirt? It’s so cute that it’s killing me. He became their mascot.

Mannnnnn this part always made me so depressed. Watching it now makes me cry man. Life is so fast it makes me dizzy. 😔

Brings a tear to my eye every time.

Really sad scene. Always makes me reminiscent of friends I had and have lost track of.

when the boys move the gang splits up.

I think Bertram was the only one who ate it because he’s an angels fan

The feels.

Watching this really makes me glad I’m still close to some of my childhood friends i only had one and we still keep in touch to this day.

Never realized this seen was preparing all of us for adult life hood

One of my favorite movies about friendship and sports.

Everyone lived happy and successful lives except for Bertram who ends up getting caught up with drugs

Mr. Mertle well, mr Mertle moved to some farm in Iowa and no one ever saw him again.

Benny- Became professional baseball player Smalls- Became a baseball commentator Hammy- Became a professional wrestler Squints-Married Wendy Peffercorn and had nine kids and owned the drug store down the street Bertram- Was abducted and killed in the 60s Timmy and Tommy- Became Mutilmillonaries architects and contractors Nunez- played Triple A baseball but didn't make it to the Major Leagues and went on to become a businessman and coaches his sons' Little League Baseball Team The Heaters named after his signature pitch YeYe- Got enlisted into the army after military school Hercules The Dog- Died at the age of 199 This movie is SO inspiring because this part tells you about how Smalls Benny Hammy and Squints and the rest of the Sandlot gang went on with their lives

Man I remember watching this movies all the time when I played baseball in elementary middle and high school I wish I could’ve went to mlb but I guess life didn’t want that

“Bertram got really into the 60s”😂😂

Benny the jet rodregaze

Small farming town but still friends and still hang out with my school friends. But as people have got married and had kids we hang out less. We recently had our 25 year reunion and my group of friends didn’t go. We decided to have a bonfire on the beach drink some beer and tell lies like we did all through high school. We figured if we hadn’t seen someone it 25 years then they most not really be worth seeing.

Squints and Wendy ❤️❤️❤️

Petsmart Needs To Sell Raglan Sleeve Cotton Jerseys For Dogs

i dont know why but its sad that nobody ever birch again

The part about Ya Ya becoming one of the pioneering developers of bungee jumping… of course we all know why… it took me years to get that reference. Lol

one of best films ever

This scene always reminds me of all my friends I had as a kid that have since moved on.

"Hamilton Porter became a professional wrestler. You know him as "The Great Hambino."

0:38 wow. That’s a lot of work to have 9 children as parents.

At some point in your childhood you and your friends played together for the last time and none of you knew it.

How Squint and Wendy ended up together would have made a good spinoff.

We all played with someone for the last time and never knew 😢

"You see, sometimes friends have to go away, but a part of them stays behind with you. It's especially true when the friends are best, best friends." - Ash Ketchum, Pokémon: Jirachi - Wish Maker. Happy 30th Anniversary to "The Sandlot" (1993 - 2023)! I may not be a huge baseball fan, but this will always be the best baseball movie ever. The ending of this movie always makes me cry alot because you know that your friends need to move on from your life for the sake of their bright future. Sometimes I wonder if I will ever see them again.

This scene just explains life

The line right before this clip starts is "Benny always said Babe Ruth was the the Hercules of baseball and it turned out to be the beast's name" - then "no none of us could ever figure out what that meant" - this is the key to the film. Babe Ruth never really "called his shot" as the legend goes (referenced in the beginning of the film) - it was a legend. The beast wasn't really a killer - it too was a legend. Confronting reality behind the legend is the wisdom that comes with growing up Our legends and most importantly our *fears* aren't reality. To grow up you have to pass through fear as they all did in confronting the beast. What happens afterwards is the unsettling knowledge that what was holding you back all this time was an illusion. This is what growing up is like - overcoming these grand pictures we build up in our heads. The wisdom however is the strength necessary for adult life - and most importantly - allows you to help others to confront theirs and grow too.

One of the greatest children’s films of all time.

FIRST VIDEO IN 2019! Guys, I have a bunch of stuff in storage this year! I’m gonna start doing Sandlot videos

Damn Hercules loved to be 28 years old, that’s pretty long

It's sad because I guess nothing could last forever

Growing up me and my childhood friends was like this except we didn’t play baseball it was kickball for us

There’s some more sadness to this scene after he says, “I was the last to move away, but when I did, the sandlot was still there.” Baseball and baseball fields were such a mainstay in this country and in neighborhoods. They were a place where kids and adults could go, make some friends, and have some fun. Nowadays, those same sandlots are torn down or replaced by parking lots or chain restaurants. And the idea of baseball and community gathering has faded away.

great documentary

The ending of Band of Brothers is exactly like this

0:15 - Grant Gelt's final acting credit was literally called "The '60s". Hardcore LOL!

This kills me. I miss the kids i grew up wit

"Ya-ya joined the army and later pioneered bungee jumping! Bertram got into heavy drugs and is probably dead. Timmy and Tommy ended up working in the same business as adults!"
