ESPN MLB keeps 'these two' nameless, and the clip flies
A title made of five words and a clapping emoji is moving at a speed the baseball channel's new uploads rarely reach on day one.
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 151,265 views a day, 16 times a normal first day on this channel (9,714).
A journey for these two 👏
Posted on Sunday, "A journey for these two 👏" has spent its first day moving at roughly fifteen times the pace a new ESPN MLB upload usually manages.
The title gives almost nothing away. There are no names, no team and no hint of where the journey led, so the story stays inside the video itself. Viewers have been generous with likes and much quieter in the comments.
That pace stands out even on a busy channel. On its own, the clip is running at more than half the rate the entire ESPN MLB channel usually draws in a day, and this is a catalog that has already passed a billion and a half views.
