A Homerun For The Ages

In a moment of sports immortality, Bartolo Colon became the oldest MLB player to hit his first homerun at the age of 42.

He's not the hero we deserve, but the hero we need

Here's to a legend

This is cool, but probably second to when Randy Johnson smoked that bird with the pitch

Willians Astudillo has risen to keep Bartolo Colon’s spirit alive in MLB.

A new Bartolo Colon

He plays everywhere and even pitches. Throws gas! 46 mph and it took only 7 pitches to retire the side.

Astudillo Being Unhittable

A lot of Mets fan in San Diego that day.

I also believe that is the start that caused the padres to trade shields for Tatis

You’re thinking of Bo Jackson throwing the runner out at home from the fricking wall.

Astudillo certainly has that Colon spirit within him, he's fun to watch

The late 90s Indians were the best radio ever

You could listen to that forever

Skip Caray and Pete Van Wieren for the Braves were the GOAT radio crew. God Rest both their souls.
