I’m afraid to be at a game when jomboy does a break down lol

The "wackity-schmackity-doo" 🤣

I mean, if you watch his normal delivery (first 2-3 pitches covered in the video), you see that his left foot acts as essentially a small pivot motion to contact the rubber. However during the illegal delivery, his left foot leave the ground, and leaves contact with the rubber. This is a case of 1) Ump actually calling it correctly, and 2) Nestor doing something wacky, and it backfiring on him because he established his own natural motion earlier in the at bat.

I'm with the ump on this. This absolutely looked like he was stepping off like he was gonna pick off the no one on base. Weird pitch, and a hard call, but I'm siding with the umpire. This is a ball.

3:04 The comparison between the fast pitch and his normal windup shows there's a pretty big difference of just how much he picked his left foot up

The view from behind the plate looked like he stepped off to me. When you do funky stuff like Nestor you have to expect that some umpires are just looking for something to call. Edit: How did this become a discussion about balks when there isn’t even a runner on base???

Nothing slows the game down like a quick pitch

He for sure did lift his foot off the rubber

That feeling when you don't watch any baseball other than Jomboy content, but you recognize the umpire in the thumbnail. 😂

I am with the ump on this one.

I feel like from Ump view left foot definitely looks behind the rubber.

Aaron Nola and the Phillies had a 3 pitch, 85 second half inning last week. You should do a breakdown of that

1:16 bro he so clearly stepped off hahaha

If I was the ump I'd tell Boone "He lifted his foot off the rubber AND he quick pitched him, is this really a hill you want to die on?"

Nestor didn't balk, he traveled.

I remember when throwing the batters timing off meant you threw offspeed pitches. This is backyard wiffle ball crap

He did step off. Good call. 🙂

The pitcher may not take a second step toward home plate with either foot or otherwise reset his pivot foot in his delivery of the pitch. If there is a runner, or runners, on base it is a balk under Rule 6.02(a); if the bases are unoccupied it should be treated as an illegal pitch under Rule 6.02(b).

I found my first Jomboy video a few weeks ago, been eating up all of them. Insightful and funny. Keep up the good work!

Its a quick pitch. You are not allowed to speed up a pitch with the intent to deceive the batter or catch them off balance in the MLB. 100% that's whats going on. Close Call Sports had the exact language on their channel. Leave it to the Ump to call out the less obvious violation.

“T3chnically you’re not allowed to lift your foot” - there you said it

“… and that’s baseball” Pretty much sums it up for me

I wonder if you polled Yanks fans vs everyone else to see what everyone feels about this shit. A non-Yankees fan is not impressed.

Nestor's dumb ass antics on the mound finally caught up with him? Oh that's a shame.

Nestor what a goof

From the rear view he definitely lifted his foot off the rubber. I don't know what the means for the actual pitching rules though lol.

I really appreciate you did the ad at the end, Great Call...

Thanks Jimmy...or whatever your name is for letting me fish in your pool again. This is the best catch Ive had since yesterday!

Definitely right call by ump. First time I’ve said that in years 😂

Jomboy Media, This is great! I liked it and subscribed!

That’s a punk ass move as a pitcher

Love ALL of your stuff man!

This is my new favorite channel and I have only watched a whole baseball game start to finish 1 time in my 64 years! How does the algorithm know?

I love that cartoonishly long windup, looks like Bugs Bunny out there on the mound 😂

I’m with the ump on this one, it looks like a step off.

Was at this game. Was very confused when that happened. Thanks for the breakdown!

Nestor Cortez looks like my high school friend’s great auntie’s son who still lived with her in his 40’s. He was quite special. Slept on the couch in the 1 bedroom apartment. He watched old tapes of Beetle Borgs and Gargoyles all day. And ate nothing but Indian TV dinners. Same unsavory mustache.

It’s always a pleasure to see more of Nasty Leg Nestor.

The windup before the no pitch was great. Moderately similar to Luis Tiant!!

I love the breakdown on why he would swing at the last pitch. Helps us casuals understand. Otherwise it just looks silly. 🙏

Every part of jomboys videos, especially the fans are best

I’d love to see the reaction if anyone other than a Yankee did this lol

I think Nestor's act is hilarious but I absolutely would be calling him on it all damn day. I don't see how anybody could possibly think otherwise, you Yankees fans are biased as hell.

hahaha the overlay part has me dying

Those overlays created a dope font on the jersey!

The fact that you have to go by your interpretation of the rule rather than, you know, THE RULE, says a lot

Glad to see at least one umpire is calling Nestor on his bullshit

Left foot absolutely came off the rubber about an inch, then back down. Good eyes by the ump.

Can you please do a break down on the 3rd inning from Friday night in the Yankees vs Padres game.

i have more respect for boone if he came out there and saw the reality of this call, i feel like he was ready to fight for his player a little too hard there, pitcher is wrong here

jomboy doing Yankees brakedown what a suprise

Timing disruptions could be utilized, but doing them like this is a clown move. Maybe try being a bit subtle?

Bet we won’t see a breakdown of the Yankees blowing a 3-run lead to the Mariners in the 9th inning though

I see you have 'Out of Left Field'. Great book.....

jomboy do a breakdown of the white sox orioles game ending on may 23rd ending was very confusing

I love this channel

Best sports coverage at this time bar none. I want a free hat.

Laz got it right. Cortes should cut the gimmick bullshit out of his repertoire.

Best part of this breakdown was explaining how he could swing at that last pitch, as a former pitcher, I always have to explain how complex it actually is to people and they still don't get it.

It's a bush league move

I love that he pulled his left foot off the plate twice the next pitch and it didn’t get called

As a Yanks fan, Nestor just needs to cut the BS 😂 The wiggle is incredibly hilarious though 🤣

Need a breakdown of the end of the Guardians and Twins game from Sunday

I LOVE YOU JIMMY

He does step off

So if you quick pitch too quick, a thing they can't really make a hard rule about because it's a super fuzzy line, the ump might call you for that lifting of the left foot that every pitcher does as they turn and never gets called. Sometimes baseball feels like that secret card game Mau where we're just trying to make the umps happy.

"Hey that looks fun! But wait... this is baseball. Fun inst allowed!" -People here

Quick pitch is enough. He never lifted his foot completely off the bag. But quick pitched him, none the less. Let's Go!!

That slow pitch was so ridiculous 😂

Its nice seeing Corey Julks getting playing time. He deserves it.

You should break down Alex Cora get mad over mound viste

Wackadee-Shmackadee-doooo 😂😂

Doing stuff like that is practically asking the ump to miss calls. The ump probably isn't ready for the pitch either.

Nestor's Funky Pitching

It's an easier call looking from behind the mound than from the plate. I'm actually impressed blue got it.

He stepped off

Hey Jomboy you need to check out bottom of the 2nd inning in yesterday's O's game. The ump changed his mind and I have no idea what happened.

I think I agree. If he hadn’t lifted his left foot that pitch is legal but I think Nestor did pick that left foot up off the mound

The analysis of the audience was more entertaining then the highlight

He stepped behind the Rubber mound dohickey; Whatever it is called; and so it LOOKED like he was stepping off. I'd have called shinanigans too! BTW just what IS that rubber pitchers mound thingy called Jomboy?

Please do a video on what Laz did last night to the Orioles calling a clear strike as a ball!

Nestor being Nestor is so Nestor

Your right foot is not allowed to step behind the mound prior to pitching

I just find it funny that after pitchers were slow to the brink of scandal, this one messed up trying to be quick about it.

Good call by the ump.

Nestor Cortez is the definition of "I don't think my stuff is good enough to beat you on its own so I'm going to put of a clown show to upset your timing"

Im just curious as a non Yankees fan who only watches Nestor when he pitches against my team. Do his antics actually work? Just from my anecdotal evidence he seems to always throw well out of the strike zone when doing it

Pretty stupid when pitchers try to resort to trickery. Win games because of your skills, not because of your silly antics.

His foot lost contact with the rubber twice in his extended-windup wild pitch he did before and no call.

I still can't believe he's younger than Shohei Ohtani.

Try to get too tricky, win stupid prizes, that's all.

Well... he DID step back with his right foot. Laz gave away his blunder right there. He got the feet mixed up and truly thought this was a step off. Also... why do we not have the pitch clock on the tv overlay? If it was below 8 seconds, it doesn't matter if the batter wasn't looking or ready, he's legally required to be alert and ready by then.

When do we get the Cubs-Pirates 9th inning breakdown

He did step back. But with his right foot

if your foot steps off the mound when a runner is on base it’s considered a balk

Nasty Nestor! 🤣

Nestor MOST DEFINITELY sent his right foot BEHIND the rubber to help push forward...so his quick pitch would be more effective. He's been learning...practicing...doing...

Whackity Schmackity Do!

I'm hoping to see a breakdown of the NASCAR fight..

Imagine catching a stray as an innocent fan in the crowd 😂
