1
14 years ago today the Red Sox were in the midst of an 86 -year wait for a World Series title themselves.
2
That street looked to continue.
3
Boston dropped the first three games of the ALCS to the Yankees
4
but in game four the fortunes of the franchise would soon change forever.
5
Big Papi and Alex take it away.
6
Thanks KB.
7
So we're gonna go down memory lane a little bit here Big Papi.
8
I remember 2004 I was 28 years old you were 27 well at least 27.
9
Hey, be careful, man.
10
And we were up 3 -0.
11
We had just beat the piss out of you in game three.
12
We were thinking, we're going to the World Series.
13
And we have Mariano Rivera on the mound.
14
He pitched a clean eighth inning.
15
And here comes goofy Kevin Millar.
16
He concerned me for two reasons.
17
Number one, he's a right -handed hitter.
18
Righties always saw and hit Mariano better.
19
Better, yeah.
20
And Kevin, as goofy as he is, that man can hit.
21
Oh, yeah.
22
And he knows the strike zone.
23
Oh, yeah.
24
And I also knew that he didn't give a crap about Mariano.
25
He was going to fight him tooth and nail.
26
High -off walk, and there's life for the Red Sox.
27
Before Mallard drew that walk, did you think it was over?
28
You know you're facing the best of the best at the time.
29
But your instinct and what you are supposed to do is just fight back.
30
And that's exactly what we end up doing.
31
We have Dave Roberts coming in, still in the bag.
32
Roberts is going.
33
Passada's throw.
34
Oh, Roberts, for sake.
35
Fasada throws a bullet.
36
Perfect, yeah.
37
Jeter makes a perfect tag, just gets in there.
38
What are you thinking at that point?
39
We have men in second with Mariano pitching.
40
That is something that you barely see guys getting to first base when Mariano was in the mound.
41
But getting to second base, that just, you saw the whole crowd going crazy.
42
You saw, it seems like everything come back alive.
43
But I had a question for you, Adol.
44
When you guys, as the Yankees, start feeling the pressure, when you guys start feeling like you guys were in trouble?
45
When Miller was at the plate, and I knew very vividly in my mind
46
that the home run as a walk -off was that day game in Fenway earlier that year.
47
And I also knew he won the batting title.
48
But because it was Mariano Rivera, I felt like we had Superman on the mound.
49
Up the middle, Roberts will come to the plate.
50
Bill Miller has tied it.
51
I'm watching the whole thing, and now the motivation and the momentum, it feels like it's going our way,
52
even if we were 3 -0.
53
It almost felt like at that point you had nothing to lose.
54
You were playing with the house's money, and we had all the recourse on us.
55
We had to now finish, and we had the responsibility to close.
56
And obviously, we never closed.
57
But I'll share one thing with you, Poppy, is, and this was a bad feeling that I got.
58
In the bottom of the eighth inning, after the eighth was over, Mariano just had a one, two, three, and you're feeling pretty good.
59
I went down to get an extra set of batting gloves.
60
It was super cold that night.
61
And I couldn't get in my locker because it was full of plastic, and all the champagne was ready,
62
and everyone's ready to party.
63
And I was so pissed off that I said, screw the batting gloves.
64
I said, why are these things up? and I just kind of walked out.
65
And I just didn't like that, because I am a believer that you never celebrate till it's truly over.
66
The temperature continues to fall here in Boston as we move to the bottom of the 12th, the 4 -4 game.
67
You know how we approach pitchers.
68
We go back to the history that we have with them.
69
And you make up your mind.
70
As I was getting mature and getting more experience, I used to work on history and results.
71
And it was three homers that I hit during this playoff that I expect those pitchers to give me those pitches.
72
Control, Paul, when he was with the Blue Jays, he had that front door fastball that he would throw right at you and boom, come back to the play.
73
And the minute I saw him coming out of the bullpen, I went to looking for the front door fastball.
74
Ortiz into deep right field.
75
We'll see you later tonight.
76
I'm glad that the homerun you hit of Quantro decorated your life.
77
It ruined mine.
78
And decorated yours, too.
79
Exactly.
80
Anyways, this is the most torturous segment I've ever done in my Fox career.
81
Thank you very much, Papi.
82
So like therapy.
83
KB, back to you.
84
I'm a therapist.
85
The doctor, Papi.
86
Thank you.

Wat je leert

Deze video helpt je om twee cruciale spreekvaardigheden te ontwikkelen: natuurlijke conversatieflow en reacties op spontane situaties. De dialoog tussen Alex Rodriguez en David Ortiz is informeel en dynamisch, waardoor je leert hoe native sprekers herinneringen delen en details toevoegen. Daarnaast oefen je schaduwspreekt – een effectieve methode om je uitspraak en ritme te verbeteren – door de snelle wisselingen in de conversatie na te volgen. Dit is ook handig voor wie IELTS spreekvaardigheid oefent, want het traint je om helder en natuurlijk te praten onder druk.

Luister naar deze geluiden

Let op de verbonden spraak in de video. Bijvoorbeeld: "did you think it was over" wordt vaak uitgesproken als "didja think it was over" (met "you" verkleind tot "ja"). Ook "he didn't give a crap" bevat een reductie: "didn't" wordt vaak "din't" en "give a" klinkt als "givuh". Andere voorbeelden zijn "we're gonna" (in plaats van "we are going to") en "you guys were" die klinkt als "you guys wur". Deze linking en reducties maken de spraak soepeler – een belangrijk kenmerk van native uitspraak.

Spreek het zoals een native

Om het ritme en de klemtoon na te bootsen, focus op de accenten in zinnen. Bijvoorbeeld in "we had Superman on the mound" wordt "Superman" en "mound" sterker benadrukt om de betekenis te benadrukken. Ook de pauzes tussen zinnen zijn belangrijk: Ortiz en Rodriguez pauzeren kort na belangrijke details (zoals "Mariano Rivera" of "walk - off") om de spanning te vergroten. Gebruik schaduwspraak door de video te pauzeren en elke zin direct na te spreken, met dezelfde snelheid en intonatie. Dit helpt je om je verbeter engelse uitspraak te verbeteren en de natuurlijke flow van conversatie te leren kennen. Onthoud: de sleutel is om niet te hard te praten, maar wel met overtuiging – net zoals de sprekers in de video.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
