Dude Perfect vs. MLB Pitcher

so the question is can Tai get a hit

against a World Series pitcher swinging

in let's find

out

our every kid that plays baseball has

always wondered you know bottom of the

ninth two out space is loaded can I get

a hit this is our version of that all

grown up this is something that Tai's

talked about a lot but he thinks he can

hit a pitch from a World Series pitcher

I personally think it's impossible do I

think Ty's crazy yes yes I do now let's

get this straight Tai's a solid athlete

but he only played baseball through high

school and he's about to face MLB

pitcher and World Series champion Jose

clame and the Texas Rangers are going to

the champion ship series he is the

closer uh for the World Series Texas

Rangers he's the guy they bring in in

the ninth inning to absolutely sit three

people down in a hurry that's who I'm

going against we figured in order to

give Tai at least a little bit of poke

we're going to give him three of bats

that will give him about 10 pitches or

so to get a hit but before he faces L

clerk he must face chase a 12old little

league pitcher Tai must successfully get

a hit at each level of baseball before

moving on to the next

what's up Chase Tyler what's up Jose

what's up Ty how we doing ma'am how's it

going Carson nice to meet you nice to

meet you thanks for helping us out today

honestly the main reason we're putting

TI through this train is I just thought

it would be

funny uh this feels a little bit

unnecessary but it's for the guys so

here we

go home run you guys pleased with

that I need you to just Groove me some

meatballs what do you think of that game

plan uh I think I'm going to strike you

out no that's not what we're going for

Chase little leager exactly what you

would expect happen all right

Chase oh

my see

you that ball is Way Gone you think I

got what I need to get a hit off an MLB

pitcher I mean you did good but MLB

level what if I have three at

bats okay two at bats mm no not

happening okay check thanks for your

time today appreciate that uh then we

worked our way up to high school you

know before we fac the big Jose we had

to face a little

Jose are you nervous not really really I

thought you were saying you were really

nervous over there earlier man I was

fine okay I was fine let's

go what was that that was 95 no it

wasn't it was mid-60s okay

kid he a goober this is my type of speed

this is what I was used to seeing all

right Jose we good we're good all

right

66 round out it was hysterical this kid

was talking so much trash he's still

barely touching

the ground

out pop out that is so

easy yeah I got it Mar can catch it I

felt good swing started to come back to

me a little bit there's also a few that

you know kind of humble you a little

bit it felt good overall after the

experience yeah okay that's a hit yeah

that's a hit okay Ty's got a good swing

I knew he was going to get a hold of

some of these appreciate the help today

yeah of course Michael thank you brother

what do you think after seeing it live I

mean I know I faed this h

what about Jose L cler do I have a

chance in three at bats probably not cuz

his stuff is a lot more consistent and

it's just going to move a lot more than

I I'll be surprised if you make contact

or can even see the ball thanks

Jose appreciate it of course see you

boys good luck you're going to need it

okay you're going to need it after the

high school level my confidence remained

the same the guys still had some

questions but for sure the biggest jump

in the training process was from high

school to

college so I don't know if you know

where you fit into this little scheme

here but you are technically kind of the

last boss before we get to the big

leagues what do you like for my chances

here you make contact with one out of

1520 okay you know when they start just

dishing out protective gear as soon as

you get there like hey let's get you

some pads you've increased your uh level

of difficulty a little bit

Carson looks dialed he looks like he's a

man on a mission so I'm a little worried

for Tai but hey if he goes home with

just a little contact or something

that's something to build on we can keep

our chins high and shoot for the star

still we

ready woo little behind that one t here

we go baby here we

go it's a little tougher than the high

school level

yeah that was close check him he didn't

go yes he did he says he didn't it's

good pitch

Carson yes boy contact I give him that

one good hit baby

okay that's a

F oh wow that's tough to catch up

too not sure if I feel better or worse

after that but I definitely feel

something what do you think has your

opinion changed at all actually yeah I

think you that was pretty good okay some

pretty good Cuts okay thank you we G

from zero to what perc of getting a hit

three of bats three of bees let's go

like 10% chance okay hey hey that is

better than zero we would collectively

as a unit the three of us standing here

today on this picture M we'd say there's

a chance Carson you didn't say it with

us uh we would say there's a chance

thank you Carson good appreciate the

help College was another level some

serious movement some serious heat then

we went to spring

training this is our world

now this

is I can't wait to get out there we're

jazzed if this was a topaz video I'd be

jazzed about topaz but it's not so I'm

just jazzed about baseball obviously all

of us were excited to be at spring

training but this one was special for

Tai to show up have your own Jersey walk

on the field with the players be taking

BP with the players obviously a dream

come true there's so many other pieces

to the game that we wanted to try out

while we were there like stealing a base

against an MLB catcher you're

ho oh no you got me oh no out made a

name for ourselves through trick shot

but there's a reason we're YouTubers and

not pro athletes i' just go ahead and go

you're still going to get

beat boy oh no AC both ACLS oh my gosh

both

gone you got pretty big leads over

there we rob a home

run there it is that's the home R hero

hero stealer

jum

baby still feeling it oh

yeah you had to clinch it too was

fantastic man it feels like you go over

there and you kind of lose your glove on

the other side of the wall and you're

like I think I have it how would you

grade his his catch over the wall there

a tin it was a perfect tin it was

outstanding feel like a ball player one

other highlight for me at spring

training was when Jonah let me put on

his Gold Glove equipment got behind the

plate gold glove patch you don't mind if

I keep this do you Jonah we can work

something

out good start start there juice that

right between the

eyes our

systems like a

flamethrower till this gain on

had a

kid I told you I miss it I'll hustle I

may not be the most tented coach but

I'll hustle for you I owe all the chest

protector I could feel a thing in this

I'm saying that was beautiful

thanks like a victory line right here

the coaches were impressed it's Bast

ball in the dirt right there it's pretty

good good action I'm impressed I really

am after all the fun we got to ask the

players what they thought of thae facing

L clerk I'm facing L clerk tomorrow I

have three at bats all right Josh so I'm

facing the clerk tomorrow it's been 17

years since I've seen live pitching

senior year in high school so it's been

I'm going to try and get some Cuts in

today yes that's huge any advice for

tomorrow I'm expecting fast ball have

pitch stay on the heater look middle

middle I don't even know what look

middle middle is but I love that you

have one on a barrel then you let it eat

even if you fell it off dude I BL single

just over second base would be like I

mean I'd pass out from excitement how do

you feel about trash talk from the from

the battle box to the pitcher as he's

pitching L Clerk's awesome he won't take

offense to it you should do it you

should do it 100% I just got to put a

ball in play do you think I got a chance

you think he touches it

no the real question is what do you

think does Tai actually have a chance at

hitting a ball thrown by Jose L clerk if

you've ever watched baseball as a kid

you've likely wondered if you could hit

a major league baseball pitch on the

other he's and the legend gross a

soaring BL go

let's break it down according to

athletes and scientists alike hitting a

baseball is the hardest thing to do in

sports the distance from the pitcher

Mount of the plate is 60 ft 6 in at 96

mph the ball reaches the plate in less

than half a second that's about the same

amount of time it takes to Blink so in

the blink of an eye the batter has to

analyze the pitch decide whether to

swing or not and then put the sweet spot

of the bat on the ball to get a hit if

the batter is too slow or too fast or if

the ball hits the wrong part of the bat

no hit strike there is no room for error

so can Tai actually get a hit we're

about to find

out time to go get the first few cuts of

the trip this is going to tell us a lot

Cody actually had a nice little uh nice

little sash once he got comfortable up

there t likes to always throw out one

guinea pig so we can get an eye on it

see the lay of the land I'm the guinea

pig today and I'm okay with

that oh W it's different than coach's

Pig

W have yourself a day we've worked our

way up now this is the first look at MLB

size field Cuts so let's see what

happens start at 70 mph for this one

starting off at 70 mph felt pretty good

we'd seen the speed before uh the wood

bat is obviously a new challenge for

those that don't know metal bats you can

use up through college they have a lot

more pop little bit easier to swing MLB

guys got to use wood bats certainly

makes a

difference wow good ball kid got some

good hits but so did Cody so you realize

what level you're talking went up to 80

M an hour still got some good hits

seeing the ball granted it's coming out

of a pitching machine it's coming

straight at you you kind of know what to

expect much better that was a much

better

cut

yeah there

go that'll do donkey yeah I think we can

take it up a little how fast you want to

to now probably going to be around 92

very realistic what a Major League

hitter would see and how fast is the P

96 97 you're going to use the vlo from

the machine or the pitcher to create

create the distance yes just put Barrel

on ball it's going to go a nice smooth

swing just staying back okay we good all

right let's try

it ah got stay back call me crazy I

think he touches it tomorrow you're

crazy it might be fouled back to the

screen might be hit directly in the dirt

but he touches one dude no

chance

K boy he's starting to figure it out a

little bit looking good got a good swing

looking more optimistic now for him

tomorrow that's for

sure oh that a

boy how do you feel after that t live

pitching it's just a whole another

animal but you know what put some

barrels on the ball at 92 can't be mad

about that he's got to swing the bat

can't go down looking that's the name of

the game tomorrow get your Cuts in and

don't just get caught looking regardless

it's an absolute blast out here and he

can't beat it and I broke a

bat over my knee like a big leager which

was sick after all this work the

moment's here and Ty stepping up to the

plate against Jose L clerk a World

Series winning

pitcher Moment of Truth pitchers are

warming up

today is the day that we find out can I

hit an MLB

pitcher up first pitch fast ball just go

at it love that strategy it's best pitch

I'm going to get I mean worst case if I

swing the bat I'm within 2 feet of the

ball hope you'll enjoy the Tyler Tony

edition of swinging and missing dude

there's no way overheard Cody say that

the odds are lower than

Vegas let's be honest if there was one

guy to be able to do it it's t he looks

like a ball player smells like a ball

player than by golly he's a ball player

you know biggest fear take one of the

orbital

bone have to have facial reconstruction

surgery biggest hope is we somehow just

get a hold of one and bomb it out at

right field short hit the foul pole

somewhere in between there'd be

great $1,000 for

okay well everyone it's the matchup

we've all been waiting for Tyler Tony of

Dude Perfect against Jose l cler your

moment kid and the

pitch was the prank we pranked him we

said throw behind

him Jose L cler throws behind Tyler Tony

he's shaking in his boots one one

count yes he did oh yeah he

went clerk gets the sign he's

set and the pitch swinging a miss a fast

ball right by

Tony those hands through come on now

have we still got Life kid who's that

pivot foot I don't know what I'm saying

I'm a basketball

guy swing in a Miss look clerk strik

some first pitch wasn't very fair that

was messed up threw behind me trying to

Rattle me he did I was rattled he's

throwing a good 95 poor Tyler I'm a

little worried he might have urinated

himself on that one throwing that nasty

little slider just dips away two pitch

and a swing and a miss a swing and a

miss I don't remember who said it one of

great philosophers of our past but

believe the quote was one swing of the

bat can change the world one swing of

the bat can change the world people I'm

blanking on his name really goodl

looking cool just handsome uh

philosopher just got told L Clerk's on a

pitch count so we only get two ABS now

uh instead of three so I went from a

guaranteed nine pitches to now I have

only three left and all I can hear are

the words of little eager Chase echoing

in my head what if I have two at bats no

not

Happ so last shot here we go

boys he's got the look of a ball player

but does he have the swing of a ball

player can he deliver L cler Tony the

pitch this is

a swing and a PO the short right field

he's a

hero Tyler Tony making Dude Perfect

history that's a bloop single not only

have we made contact it is a bloop

single and possibly the greatest

accomplishment of my life look at him

round the bases just like a doly

scar a bloop single hey I here baby

single I'm done I'm not going back out

there I'm going to get hit is he good

enough for a contract uh he's pretty

close I think he got rattled when the

pitch came up and in there so he did

that was all part of the plan he didn't

know about it what an experience boys

experience are you right now I'm shaking

dude I feel like a dad right now who

just watch his son go about four for

four in a peeeee game 96 you put in play

I'm trying to look who else could do

that obviously a dream come true massive

thanks to the Texas Rangers for having

us out and allowing us to experience

what it would be like to be a major

league baseball player he did it

man really oh yeah oh yeah oh my

congrats dude appreciate you doing that

that was awesome thank you man my boys

I'm TT and I just hit an MLB

picture Dude

Perfect
