ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS VS PITTSBURGH PIRATES LIVE ⚾️ MLB Game Score Radio Play-by-Play AGO 03, 2024

then backto backto back home runs the 1 and jock swings fouls it left side that'll get into the seats and the count at one and two or part of me one ball and one strike just been that kind of inning for Keller throwing a lot of strikes right-hander into his motion and the 1-1 that is a strike and now the count is one and two another one of those back door sweepers there to a lefty and it seems like he's going to use that fast ball in and then throw the back door slider sweeper to those lefties he's also mixed in a sinker but he's going in and out with the hard and the soft looking for a one two three first the pitch and that is swung on hit in the air towards center field it's right at Michael a Taylor so a pretty easy inning for Mitch Keller he retires the side in order and we go to the bottom of the first inning deags nothing and the p e e e ball and no strikes to count well there's no easy solution for figuring out how to turn in a good start every fifth day but as the 1 swung on and fou back I imagine with Montgomery try your best to get into those pitcher friendly counts and then be able to use that curveball to generate some swinging Miss you're right Chris this the uh equation is simple it's very hard to execute now the 1-1 and McCutchen way out in front of off speed good change up and the counter ball in two strikes love to see the change up right there in the open that's what I mentioned you're going to have to use the speed pitches more and you like to see him have that going early here comes a onew swung on and a line drive hooking foul still a ball in two strikes McCutchen at 37 years old having a very productive season in what is his 16th year of the majors and by all indications does not want this year to be his last one two that is down low two balls and two strikes the traditional counting stats might not be the most ideal more specifically a 227 batting average but he still has 13 homers 14 doubles and the two two strike three called got him with a fast ball and McCutchen doesn't like it but that was just a beauty of a fast ball on the inner third after going away the entire atat to McCutchen right here Montgomery comes hard in it looked like a front door Sinker threw it right off the inside corner and it runs back over and just catches it a perfectly executed front door Sinker right there here is Brian Reynolds switch hitter batting right-handed now the pitch swung on and hit on the line to right field sinking fast Carrol though makes a sliding catch he turned on the burners and Montgomery got to be pleased having that defense behind him as they're down to outs nicely done right here Corbin Carroll gets a good break on this ball that's big for Jordan Montgomery's confidence get those first two quick outs here to get through the first inning clean would be big for him Conor Joe is in the three spot tonight for Pittsburg here's the pitch and the right-handed hitting Joe takes down low one ball and no strikes to count despite having a five for five performance from O'Neal Cruz last night it's a guy's had his struggles against left-handed pitching this year he'll be batting eighth and the 1 oh Joe fooled by the pitch takes a strike and the count is even at one and one you really like to see that right there the one curveball back door to Joe the confidence to throw that when you're behind in the count that is big for any pitcher 1-1 from Montgomery swung on and fouled out of play the count back in his favor at 1 and two it's not huge power numbers for Conor Joe but there is a clear distinction between his production against left-handed pitching and right-handed pitching and though he has more homers against righties this year Joe is a much more consistent hitter against the southpaws one two now and Joe takes just a bit inside on our monitor it looked like the pitch was kissing the outside of the strike zone it could have gone either way two balls two strikes now and Montgomery after a long pause throws and gets a grounded to third backhanded by Suarez he spins and he throws a one hopper to First nice scoop made by Bell the inning comes to an end so both starters turn in a 1 two three first and we are on to the second scoreless on the Morgan and Morgan Dbacks Radio Network Luis arise now one out in the ninth Line to Center F on the base hit WS coming around from seconder

mornings at 11:45 on Arizona Sports 987 and the Arizona Sports AB top of the second inning Josh Bell will lead it off for the Dbacks and he's going to use his timeout here right from the very beginning resets the clock didn't actually leave the Batters box though so in a sense he's almost icing himself here's the pitch swinging a foul out in front of a sweeper from Keller and fouled it off his front foot Bill had two hits in his dback debut yesterday and both of them left the ballpark the 01 swung on and fouled into the netting now they count nothing and two in his career against Keller has some pretty good numbers he's faced him 11 times has four walks so out of seven at bats he's got six hits a homer and a double so he sees the ball well for Mitch Keller 02 swung on and fouled out of play but you have numbers like that that means it is a rarity to make an out it's a cool 857 batting average nothing and two Keller winds the right he throws and it's grounded left side krien Hayes has it at third and he'll throw to first in time four in a row set down by Keller to begin his start here tonight yeah he's really executing every pitch right now throwing it where he wants he's used that back door slider to every Lefty so far and they've just not been able to wait back on have been out in front of most of those here's lordis scuel and the first pitch from Keller is poured in there for a strike 0 and one here on guriel had a strange day yesterday offensively as the 01 is low had himself a base hit in his first at bat he wound up going one for five but even the base hit was not exact what you draw up as a hitter I mean you'll take what you can get don't get me wrong one there's another swing and a foul but after Ortiz had essentially given up four homers to the first four batters of the game yesterday guel hit a little comebacker just to the right the first base side of the mound and he kind of flailed at it but forgot to cover first base to the pitcher so guriel basically got a free infield single as the onew swung on and fouled out of play then after that guriel kind of a routine fly out to Center his next time up in the fifth inning he swung in a pitch that honestly is more amazing it didn't hit him it would have hit him had he not hit it and he somehow hit it fair and I don't know if he was in a little bit of pain or stunned or just embarrassed at at what unfolded but he never actually ran to First the ball went to the pitcher pitcher kind of looked at him and then just threw him out as that one from Keller Down Low and then kind of a similar thing in the ninth inning now he ran out of the box but got jammed so badly that the ball just kind of went spinning over to short as he grounds it towards third diving is hay spins gets back to his feet and he throws out guel that will be much more about cab Brien Hayes than what Lord has did as there are now two outs at the top of the fifth inning yeah the other thing that guel did in the ninth yesterday that was interesting is in that ground ball he threw his Bat about halfway to Short Stop as he was making contact so like you said a very odd day at the plate for guriel two outs for McCarthy and the pitch is swung on and skyed to Center going out is O'Neal Cruz coming in is Michael a Taylor it's a center fielder Taylor who makes the catch and the Diamondbacks are down in order at the top of the second we go to the bottom of the second inning Pirates nothing and the snakes nothing on the Morgan seventh pitch to Gunner leading off the game and Henderson drills it right field down the line that's a gunner oh that thing got out of here in a nan second another leadoff Gunner stunner in the Orioles jump on top 112. 3 mph 410 ft I'm not not even sure I saw this ball leave the bat it was hit so quickly D La Cruz rolls one that is through pitch called a strike throw down is late opposite way that is down base hit takes off no throw there goes De La Cruz called strike throw down late De La Cruz he takes off Pitch swinging to this throw down it's wide and he's on for the fourth time today chump to third backhand short way to second bobbled the day La Cru effect he speed

De La Cruz lot of righties in this line up against Montgomery first pitch and Montgomery missed outside with a fast ball one ball no strikes to count Casino Arizona and Talking Stick Resort the Valley's richest and best rewards voted best casino and a centrals best of the desert Alano swung on hit off the end of the bat towards shallow left center field this a tough play guel racing in and he makes a sprawling catch for the out and there's one down guel with a great jump right here that's one of the best things that he does in the Outfield he gets an outstanding jump on balls actually the best among Dbacks outfielders at getting a quick jump and a read on balls and that's the reason he's able to get to this ball make a sliding catch here is Joey Bart Mony ready and the first pitch to The Pirate catcher is taken a little bit off the plate looked like a pretty good pitch one ball and no strikes Bart got the start yesterday and offensively reach base a couple of times as that pitch is in there for strike one one ball and one strike Bart had a good long at bat against Brandon fought and drove in a run with one of those base hits he had yesterday he's been swinging the bat well here with Pittsburgh little bit outside now two balls had one strike we mentioned with Montgomery's first start off the injury list against the Royals we learned after the game he was on a really strict pitch limit as the 2-1 at the knees for a strike it's now two and two basically with pitch limits a lot of coaching staffs they'll say this is the number we want him to be at and then this is the number we absolutely will not allow him to go over like take you out in the middle of an AB now the 22 and it's down low ball three against Kansas City where he picked up the win it a 6-2 victory 60 pitches that was the initial number and the absolute Max was 70 three balls two strikes and Montgomery throws to Bart swung on hit well out to deep left field Fel turns looks and that Ball's gone it's his eighth of the year and Joey Bart solo Homer gives the Pirates a one to nothing lead Montgomery comes with a 3-2 Sinker looked like he was trying to get it in on the hands and it just ended up running back over the inner third of the plate and when you're in a 3-2 count hitters are generally always ready for that fast ball and Bart does not miss this one at all 26th RBI of the year as well for [Music] Bart and here is Isaiah ker FFA Hawaiian born middle infielder recently acquired from Toronto it's his pirate debut and the first pitch to him is off the plate one ball and no strikes Conor FFA hitting 292 seven homers and 33 driven in with tanov is here as the 1 is swung on and missed more interestingly enough is the fact that for him he is a distant relative to pirate great Ralph ker interesting did not know that here comes the one-1 pitch strike called it's now one and two one of those rare trades where you trade a guy while he's on the injured list but they knew that he was about to come off this year his first game off the injured list for the Pirates after that trade the onew and he miss tied did m Gomery two balls two strikes he's a guy who's always been known for his glove outstanding Fielder actually caught some when he came up with Texas but such a good infielder they moved him to short and then eventually third swing and a miss on the two2 breaking ball it's in the dirt and Moreno throws down to first to complete the strikeout and we quickly pause 10 seconds for station identification on the Morgan of Morgan dbx radio network KMD FM Phoenix Arizona Sports the local sports leader on the Arizona Sports app and on 987 two down now and here is grien Hayes righty hitter Lefty pitcher and the first one to Hayes swing and a miss he was way out in front good curveball for Montgomery one ball at two stri strikes the count so far today we've seen good off speed from Montgomery he's mixed it in uh a good amount here in the first two innings 01 swung on and fouled out of play the countdown nothing and [Music] two pirates with a one nothing lead here in the bottom of the second Montgomery ready here's the pitch curveball in the dirt one ball and two strikes to count Montgomery with that curve ball he likes to throw it two strikes you'll see Gabby Moreno kind of sets up away sometimes to the righties on that curveball that's to give Montgomery a good eyesight where he wants to start that pitch here's onew strike three called Paints the inside corner and after the Homer Montgomery strikes out the next two to wrap up the bottom of the second Joey Barts Homer though sends a [Music] and mat lifts this ball high and deep to right how about a walk off granny put that one in your Rocky's opening day memory book one pitch and Ryback says I've

third inning brought to you by Cactus corn Cactus corn taste the tradition support local and keep the good times popping Gino Suarez will lead it off first pitch to him a strike and the count nothing and one he has been Untouchable in the early going has Mitch Keller and now the pitch is thrown in there for strike two [Music] Suarez 230 average now 16 homers and 59 driven in the 02 strike three called and Suarez took one about 7 in off the plate and is called out on strikes Mitch Keller is cruising so far gets the benefit of the call here because that ball is definitely off the plate right there Joey Bart a lot of glove movement on that bringing that ball way back into the strike zone and gets the benefit of that call here is Moreno the first pitch inside and the count one ball and no strikes toughy I think teams are starting to see how well Moreno has been driving the ball up the middle to the right side and now Keller's one pitch is a slider that grabs the outside corner I'm not surprised to see guys trying to work that fast ball on the inner third now against Moreno and try and get to jam one over to Short they definitely have to pitch in there and they see the weakness ground ball off the mound backhanded by the second baseman Kinder fppa and they throw to first in time I don't know if that bounce off the hill took a little speed off that grounder or not but regardless it's a fine play up the middle and the dck now two outs nobody on for Pomo it was a nice swing by Moreno I think that that ball did just get slowed up enough to make this an easier play for ikf but still a nice job and a great pick over there at first by Joe Pomo batting left-handed he'll take a strike from Keller fast ball at 94 count is 0 and one Keller an outway from three perfect Innings to start his night now the 01 and it's taken inside one ball and one strike Mitch Keller just filling up the strike zone getting ahead of almost every hitter here for the Diamondbacks tonight 1-1 bero well out in front of the pitch pulls it on the ground foul and now it's one and two Keller doing it with all of his pitches as well he's mixing up his fast ball the for seamer and the Sinker a lot of sweepers and then mixing in a little bit slower slider as well onew ground ball right side and into right field to base hit pass the dive of ker FFA and the dags keep this inning alive with a two out single just putting the ball in play here trying to find something he gets a hole good effort by ikf over a second but Pomo able to find something and get some action going here for the Diamondbacks that's the first hit of the game presented by New Vision AutoGlass New Vision and the Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation are teaming up to donate funds to Veterans with every hit this season as part of the hits for Heroes program big leaded first Carol swings and hits one weakly foul towards his own Dugout no balls and one strike Carol struck out looking against Keller back in the top of the first one- nothing pirates with the lead two outs in his third inning and Keller from the stretch is 01 that's outside one ball and one strike going to be tough to steal bases tonight off of Mitch Keller he has almost no leg kick from the stretch he really just picks his foot up and starts his movement forward just a quick slide step so not much time for that Runner to first to get any kind of a jump now the pitch swung on by Carol and it's fouled away it's now one and two Carol trying to make it 20 cons consecutive games reaching Bas safely the longest active streak at the moment of the majors is 28 by Lane Thomas who was just traded to Cleveland onew pitch and Carol takes strike three second consecutive at bat that Carol watches strike three go by and that'll do it for the Diamondbacks here Brett Rooker joining the show in studio we're going to talk hitting what are you thinking right here that's 995 dve at the very top and I at least foul it off so I know I know I can cover it if I make that same move and have that same mindset I can cover the fast ball at the top and if I can cover that fast ball at the top and at least foul it off with two strikes and I know I'm on the rest of the pitches and I know I've got I've got time to adjust to it can we get a side view one of this one of the side views back up and I think oh God he's going to work here I know he's definitely ready here he comes he's ready man pay off in a big spot right here sends it deep the other way Donovan backing up to the track to the wall and paven Smith hits one off the wall this will get two runs home 8 to one paven Smith the other way and paven trying to unload sends one out to right and it's in the bullpen for a grand slam for paven Smith and it's 14 to one he's having quite a night six RBI the pitch a little slow roller Chapman bear hand got him what a play look at him Chapman a walkoff defensive play by Chapman that is of all the great plays he's made that might be the

aet.com to learn more dback front office Focus Wednesday mornings at 11:45 on Arizona Sports 987 and the Arizona Sports app bottom of the third inning one- nothing pirates in front O'Neal Cruz leads off here for Pittsburgh Beni Cruz coming off a five for five showing last night first pitch he swings and he tomahawks one on the ground foul no balls one strike to count you look at the Pirates record and having now seen him quite a bit over the last week as the oan check swing yes he did says Junior Valentine and the count is nothing to two pitching good Bullpen pretty good probably not as good as their starting rotation but still nothing to be disappointed in but where there are some gaps has been within their offense as the O2 that's going to be well short from Montgomery one ball and two strikes to count we kind of talked about it before where the Pirates are just not getting the offensive contributions from krien Hayes like they probably hoped they were going to get they have not had a lot of real slug from their Outfield outside of Brian Reynolds and the case Remains the Same here in 24 swing by Cruz and a foul count is still the ball in two strikes Joey Bart part of the reason why he was sort of run out of town in San Francisco was because for all of these Buster posy comparisons the bat tool was miles away from obviously what potential Hall of Famer bu proie was bringing night in and Night Out here's the onew and Cruz takes off the plate but you know onil Cruz is almost the good and the bad of the Pirates offense combined into one because when he is at his best it is SuperStar talent and when it's at his worst it looks like the Pirates offense what feels like over the last 10 years you're absolutely right it's interesting especially the difference between left-handed pitchers and right handed pitchers what he can do two2 good swing that time by Cruz he fouls it away Montgomery through his Sinker down the middle that is part of the maturation process of a young player the talent is obviously there for him it's how does he get in the box and stay in every pitch against the Lefty it's hard to really stay in there and not pull off of the offs speed pitches against the left-handed pitcher two two another check swing but this time it looked like he held and the count is going to be full here 36 pitches by Montgomery nobody out bottom of the third we've seen it this particular at bat two just against the Lefty right he's had multiple check swings on breaking balls that have been down and that last one was well below the Zone still a check swing 3-2 Montgomery missed inside he walked them lead off walk here to the pirate Short Stop got a missed opportunity for the dback starter against Cruz that's a guy leading off the inning the left on left numbers you got to go right at him he obviously is not trying to walk him right there he's trying to throw strikes but you got to take advantage of that especially with Taylor on Deck you know you can get him and then you have the top of the lineup to worry about first one to Michael a Taylor swinging a Miss no balls in a [Music] strike Taylor now hitting just 2011 on the year four homers and 20 RB and Montgomery is 01 shows bunt does Taylor did not go around pitch was in the dirt one ball one strike thought for a moment prior to thebat the Pirates might try and drop down a sacrifice bun who knows maybe Taylor was just showing on that pitch but with the top of the order in McCutchen wouldn't surprise me see if they get Speedy crws in scoring position here's the 1-1 Taylor no buun this time takes again in the dirt two balls and a strike and this has kind of been the issue for Montgomery when the starts have not gone all that well the change up the curveball they're not thrown for strikes and as a result hitter friendly counts he's got to throw that fast ball and it gets turned around fairly easily here's a 2-1 swung on that is hit on a line out to left field hustling over guriel he'll make the catch and Cruz Retreats back to first as they're now two outs prob to be one out in the bottom of the third inning that's the perfect example of exactly what you're referring to there is you get behind if you're not able to throw the off speed to get yourself back into account the guys are geared up for the fast ball and when you're throwing low to mid90s guys are able to catch up to that now easily so if you get a Major League hitter and he is hunting a fast ball he knows he's going to get that is dangerous territory top of the order in McCutchen he struck out his first time up first pitch for Montgomery and that is a fast ball in the dirt one ball and no strikes I mean take a look at the difference right now in the ball to strikes for Keller and for Montgomery Keller has thrown 36 pitches 29 of them have been in the strike zone 29 to just seven balls and now Montgomery his one0 pitch swung on and lifted in the air to Right Center McCarthy in medium depth center field makes the catch and that is going to be out number two with that strike for Jordan Montgomery now the Ley has thrown a total of 42 pitches and 25 of them have been in the strike zone so a little over 50% whereas Keller is going to be closer to about 75 80% Chris you mentioned it this inning you got to throw strikes with the off speed I said it in the open the key is going to be landing the curveball and the change up first a strike when he's be ahead or behind in the count now Reynolds who lined out to right field his first time up he'll take down low for ball one pirates lead one to nothing two outs bottom of the Third Joey Bart a solo home run in the previous inning nice crowd and attendance here at PNC park and the 10 check swing did he go he did not Jonathan par our first base umire Reynolds really been the guy in this lineup that has been the most consistent for this team I mentioned catel Marte since June 1st hitting 350 right behind him in the national league is this guy here Brian Reynolds at 330 in the last two months Montgomery's 20- pitch and that is going to just miss the corner right we've seen some pitches on the other side be a little bit further off the plate that have been called strikes and no such luck for Montgomery instead of a 2-1 count it's now 3 and0 man the first pitch of this bat right at the bottom of the Zone doesn't get the call that one right there very similar even a little bit better does not get that call either and 3 0 is outside Ball Four to be a four- Pitch walk so both base runners this inning for Pittsburgh have come on free passes and now the number three hitter Conor Joe will come to the plate with a chance to add to this pirate lead Montgomery right here just has to come back and Conor Joe is going to be ready for that fast ball the guy you mentioned earlier much better against lefties does have some juice in that bat so it would be great for him to be able to land a curveball first pitch or land a change up a guy that's going to be aggressive here with a man in scoring position two outs the first pitch and Conor Joe takes in the dirt one ball and no strikes to [Music] count that is the one thing about the Pirates and putting the irony aside that the Pirates lead because of a homer in general this team just does not hit very many home runs in fact in terms of national league opponents 10 is down low for ball two and now Moro going to talk things over with Montgomery the only National League teams with fewer homers than Pittsburg this year the Washington Nationals with 89 but a lot of their game is built on stealing bases the Miami marlands they've got 97 homers and then they're the Pittsburgh Pirates with 103 me a 109 Tampa Bay Rays ons with 103 there obviously in the American League you mentioned the Marlins there they've traded away a couple of guys that are high up on the list in their team in home runs they're playing tonight and Josh Bell and De La Cruz for the Pirates so not really something that the Pirates can rely on and that's why issuing walks really kind of stings you're just putting guys in scoring position you're making it a much easier job for an offense that just does not slug the ball two balls no strikes and Montgomery ready the Lefty he throws swinging a Miss by Joe fast ball well located one will make it two and one now that swing from Joe you could see coming out of his shoes he was ready for a 2-0 fast ball and he got it just not able to catch up it was kind of up and away from him running away from his Bat two on pitch and Montgomery missed downstairs ball three three balls and one strike and Jordan's trying to do what we're talking about he's trying to throw the off speed pitches for a strike to get himself back in the count he's just been missing cons consistently down below the Zone with those 3-1 pitch at a strike called that'll make it three and two he thought it was Ball Four he was getting ready to drop the bat and some of the accessories as well but instead it's a full count and with two outs the runners will be off on the next pitch a basic could potentially score two Cruz at second Reynolds at first and a big pitch here for Jordan Montgomery here comes the 3-2 swing and a ball hit well out to left but it's playable for guel he's going to make the grab and the inning is going to come to a close so the two walks do not hurt Montgomery are the Diamondbacks Pittsburgh strands 2 and we're on to the fourth now it's time for eyes on the ball player can can you find Logan web in this photo of Giants fans on the hill tonight for the Giants will be the right-hander Logan web Logan web with six shutout inning got him Logan web being Logan web take a look at the slider and he saved it for a two strike surprise perfect location this is one of better pure pites in baseball Logan web will chew through a lineup in a hurry and there he is and now Julio has a chance to win it and the out of thee that's your ball game Julio wins it in the 10th inning they'll all go home happy tonight how about that that was a pullet too he hit an absolute line drive into right center field Inside Out swing it's a really that's a great approach right there [Music] T drives one to right field it is gone was threatening that corner and it just stayed Fair the 200th home run of sh otani's career 200th home run hit it almost 108

the Arizona Sports app Cel Marte Lads off the top of the fourth inning and he will take a first pitch strike count is 0 and one Keller the Pat just continues to pump strikes in the zone the 01 now and that is strike two tell thought it was a little bit low and he is right but not going to matter Junior Valentine says it's a strike so not much he can do now not happy with that call but he's down 02 he's got another strike to work with just got a battle here against Mitch Keller and the O2 pitch is swung on and fouled back that was right around his knuckles B could tell has such Elite hand eye coordination to go with Elite bat speed so very rarely does he swing and miss it does happen sometimes when he really tries to go and power one out of here leo2 swinging a Miss he had to reach for one off the plate and unfortunately for Marte he is down on strikes Chris sometimes what happens when you have an Umpire that you feel is calling some pitches that might not be strikes you get in your head hey I might have to expand a little bit here because I don't know if this pitch is going to be called a strike that's what happens here on strike three Sinker running away from him off the plate first pitch to Peterson swung on and tap foul right now Power Sports in Polaris make an unbeatable lineup see the full line of Polaris off-road vehicles in any of the eight Ariz Ona right now locations one- nothing Pittsburgh and an 0 on count to Peterson Keller fires but he misses outside one ball and one strike look Keller used to be the guy in this Pirates rotation and people thought that you know as they were going to build out the roster he would be finding guys to compliment him that pitch going to miss wide of the mark as well two and one the count and then Along Came Paul skin as he right-handed Keller into his wind up and the 2-1 swung on hit well down the right field line unfortunately it's got that hook Spin and it goes foul to make it two and two had the distance just not quite the accuracy yeah we're going to get a chance to see Paul skin tomorrow but you mentioned it skin and Keller a great one-w punch at the top of a rotation way outside from Keller there and the count now full three balls and two strikes and some would even make the argument that the number two behind skines who is very clearly one of if not the most dominant pitcher in baseball right now would be Jared Jones and now time called but kill was right into his motion when he asked for time no pitcher ever appreciative of such a tactic not a bad tactic to try though if you're the hitter right now the way Keller is going 3-2 swung on and rolled foul but when you have a legitimate three and especially a three as good as what the Pirates can carry out this is from evidence last year first a 3-2 pitch swung on and again F if you're the Pirates you just need to now build a roster that is able to navigate through a regular season Elite playoff teams ones that are favored or go on to win the World Series typically have great starting pitching at the very front at least a top two and then a really Dynamic bullpit 3-2 another swing and another foul great regular season teams the ones that win a bunch of games throughout the year yes they do have good starting pitching yes of course they have to have a good Bullpen without those going to be tough to win but they have offenses that can put up runs typically every night throughout 162 3-2 pitch just outside ball four and an A+ at bat for Jack Peterson he he draws the one out walk it's an excellent point about building a roster the other things those teams have is they have the depth right you know you're going to get some in juries throughout the year you know not everyone is going to be swinging the bat at the same time so you're going to have to have some depth up and down the lineup if guys do go down or get cold so you got to find a way to build those extra pieces in there here's Josh Bell he'll take a fast ball for his strike count his own and one Jared Jones today I mean I watched him throw his live batting practice on the field before uh everyone was here and man he has got got some electric stuff as well oh one by toel pardon me swung on and found it's the commitment to Excellence Huffy that is what has ingratiated you to this always grateful fan base get here to the park nice and early just you and the Pirates rain or shine they say here's the oou low in you glean any useful information from that session not particularly from that session but it's just nice to get to the ballpark and you'll be able to do the work up here in the Press Box and you can disagree with me this is might be the best view in baseball up here from this press box one and two the count and that one Nell swung on hit towards the left Center Gap and racing over is Taylor he'll make the grab back to first goes Peterson now two down of the inning for lordis guel Jr I don't think I can argue with you on that one I think where we are where we are privileged to have the chance to broadcast from because I know not every team feels as passionately about sending their radio crews out on the road'll be able to see the alany river the Clen Bridge it's a very just aesthetically pretty Stadium as well that pitch a called strike from just a view St standpoint it's either here in my opinion or Oracle Park in San Francisco yeah tough to argue with those two but I enjoy just getting to the ballpark I like seeing the field I like being able to do my work up here and and getting here early it's just something I did when I played so it's very comfortable for me to be at the Ballpark and and do my work here one ball and one strike now on guel he grounded out to third his first time up two outs in this fourth inning the pirates with a one- nothing lead some better at bats here this inning a great one by jock and then Bell right there hit a bullet to left Center but Taylor able to run that one down 1-1 low and outside and now it's two and one in gel's favor Keller back to the stretch he's ready and now was 2-1 just off the plate ball three try to sweeper it look like and this is one of the rare hitter friendly counts the Dbacks have had all game long that's right he's been trying to go down and away he's just missed with those pitches that he hasn't been missing with earlier and that's going to miss ball four a fast ball and he just missed it low and Away second walk given up by by Keller here in the fourth and that brings up McCarthy what's interesting is they didn't try to go in on guriel right there you mentioned it to Mareno earlier the way that they swing the bat and drive the ball the other way so well they do the same thing to guriel a lot that's how they got him out last night they really do a good job of getting in on gel's hands and that's the way that most teams get him out so didn't try to do that thatat just kept missing away very brief Mound visit between pitcher catcher and third basem so here is McCarthy he's a tough guy to double up so unless he really stings one on the ground right to an infielder you hopefully like your chances of avoiding that Parton me there's two outs so don't have to worry about that here's the pitch and a strike called Marte struck out to begin the fourth and then Bell and the fly out to left side center field nice play was made by Taylor in that particular bat but a couple of walks tying run and scoring position and the o1 to McCarthy swung on Grounded towards first Fair ball sliding over is Joe and he makes a strong underhand toss to Keller at the bag and the inning comes to an end so the Diamondbacks get two on but they strand a pair without scoring we go [Music] can you find Peter Lonzo in this sea of Mets Fano

Arizona Sports 987 and the Arizona Sports app well we welcome you back to PNC Park unfortunately we got some bad news as the tarp is now on the field it has not started raining yet but clearly the information that the grounds crew have here for the Pirates would suggest that something is coming and it's coming quickly if they didn't even want to try and get five innings in the book so the bad news toughy is that we're going to have to wait this one out a little bit I I suppose the good news if anything is Diamondbacks get a chance to maybe reset offensively looking like a tough test against Mitch Keller by the way the eags trail one to nothing on a Sol home run from Joey Bart in the second but depending on how long this delay is it certainly could affect the [Music] availability you know you have a chance to come back out I [Music] [Music] [Music] you hey n [Music] oh hey B go hey f [Music] oh [Music] [Music] hey this [Music] stop stop [Music] he [Music] what's up he [Music]

sand there back of the wall and he can't get it it'll clear the fence and deep right field Martinez has his third of the year and it's two nothing Guardians the rarest of rare occurrences for Zack effin issuing a free pass and on the very next pitch the birds are down to zip the 22-year-old in his 26th game of the major leagues stings one into the season right and it's two nothing Jose Ramirez bats and gets a fast ball on the inside corner for strike one effin rocks into the wine the pitch Rivera batting left handed had it revved up takes a strike on the top bar of the Zone o and two one day there will be a ceremony for this guy the two up and out one ball and two strikes this season he has surpassed Albert Bell's home run total for Guardian home runs in franchise history he's got a long way to go to get to Jim Tomy the on two bounc sharply on the ground to the right side it's funnel up by Jackson holiday deep in second base they'll play it over to First retiring Jose Ramirez and there are two away two nothing Guardians on the Martinez home run you know not only is Jose Ramirez just completely embraced here in the community for the long term and very sweetheart Hometown discount deal that he signed he's such a a valuable part to the community and that Clubhouse Josh Naylor rolls the first pitch towards the Orioles Dugout B on the first basee apron for strike one but everything that he does on the diamond defensively offensively he's a superstar within the game you know he's going to be forever enshrined here and you wonder if eventually there's a stop in Cooperstown for Jose Ramirez that's what Brandon height said today in the manager show he's that good he really is and there are a number of people that Overlook just how good he is the O2 pitch to Naylor Chas a high fast ball and Fs it back stays 0 and two I'm old enough to remember when the conversation here was who should the Guardians then Indians invest in long term Frankie Lindor or Jose Ramirez let's just say that Cleveland chose wisely the O2 pitch topped on the right side of the diamond towards the hole shuffling to his right Mount Castle feeds the pitcher coming over to cover it's a 3-1 bounce out as zein kicks the cushion and retires the Guardians here in the third inning they're on the board on H Martinez third Major League home run is a two-run shot and Cleveland's got a two nothing lead over Baltimore after three over the Orioles radio network [Music] one two strike well oh that pitch not going to count we have a b yeah we have a b yeah I don't think he stopped I don't

oshida he will Scamper in to score and there's a shot down the line he hooks that one all the way to the track theyy have a day seon double that clears them and ball is out of here what a day for seon Rafael there's a drive that one sucked dobeck will score seven RB for S Rafaela it's two nothing on the onhell Martinez home run Ryan mountcastle gunar Henderson and Anthony Santan D two three and four on the card trying to get the offense started for the O's that cast is hitless in the series now 0 for nine right-handed back looks out at the Young Lefty hands just off the letters in front of his face and he deals a fast ball over the top part of the zone for strike one seems like the entire life of Joey cantillo he's been chasing vo he's founded in the last couple of years the 01 it's down in away one ball and one strike on Mount Castle he is the Sixth and final piece of that big trade from San Diego and the package that was sent to Cleveland Cleveland to acquire Mike Clevenger pitch bounces up to the plate on a change up held too long by the Lefty it's two balls in one strike on Mount Castle that deal was struck in the 2020 campaign it's been a long awaited arrival for Joey cantillo protected the last couple of years on the 40 2-1 off the Cup end of the bat rolled into the open end of the nearer out of the Dugout that's two balls and two strikes on mouny deep in the right-handed batters box slightly bent back as cantillo deals he straightens and he swings and he hits a two-hopper back to Ramirez flat footed He Fields Long throw at first dug out by Naylor but it's not in time Ramirez played that ball back on his flat feet through from his heels and that cost him an out it'll go down as an field single for Ryan mountcastle and it looks like Steven vote here's quickly from the video replay room about a challenge I think that's what we're going to have Cleveland's challenging the safe call at first base that's the third base umpire Andy Fletcher on the microphone the call was made by Cory Blazer on the other Corner a bang bang play Mount Castle losing the helmet as he goes through the first base bag his teammates elated in the background of that picture about mounty being safe the crowd is seeing it reacting and they all feel that it's an out on the bounce after review the call the field is overturn Corner out Cleveland retains her challenge holy smokes it's almost like New York reacted to what they heard in Cleveland immediately as the crowd sees it for the first time Guardian fans erupt the microphone pops on and Ramirez gets the put out Mount Castle has his infield single wiped away now 53 on the bounce out brings up gunar Henderson those trailing two nothing at the top of the fourth until his basball Tails outside ball one Henderson starts the day pretty nice in the overall numbers eighth and on base percentage in the American League sixth in slugging Ops and hits fast B the outside corner called strike and it's one and one on Henderson 21 doubl six triples and 28 home runs fifth in extra base hits third in total bases third in walks with 56 of them for gunar Henderson pitch down in away two balls and one strike on Gunner 0 for one tonight popping up at foul territory and just two hits that both happened in the opener on Thursday night here in Cleveland an 0 for four last night the two1 line to the Gap at the left center field sinking quickly schneeman on the move has to plate on a bounce opposite field single for gunar Henderson made it up nicely and Le field oh second hit of the night I know it's only the top of the fourth but given the nature of the Cleveland Bullpen time and outs are of the essence right now in this game with the Orioles already trailing the record tells you that Cleveland is the best team in the major leagues they're Bullpen numbers wives Cruis it they're outstanding santand on the right-handed batters box takes high ball one with all due respect to Joey cantillo make his second Major League start someone who had about a four er in Triple A this year you can't make him look like Sandy kofax tonight this guy can make him hang his head santand D he checks in on the lead of Henderson over at first that's a wise move Gunner will run on right-handed and left-handed pitchers he's got 14 stolen bases and 16 attempts this year Anthony santand there after an early afternoon home run by Aaron judge now Trails judged by nine home runs for the major league lead he swings and misses through the 1 one ball and one strike on Anthony now one for eight in this series had a sacrifice fly last night to get one of the runs across with the birds and he belted his 32nd home run of the season on Thursday they'll take a fast ball across the knees get cillo in front one and two Anthony last night failed to reach base for the first time in 19 consecutive games they tied a career high on base streak one ball and two strikes canilla brings it home at a curveball line in between Ramirez and rokio a base hit Henderson a wide turn around second base will power down Station to Station for Henderson and santand on backto back singles here in the fourth inning for Baltimore f the well this is the pressure and you want to mount on a young pitcher just trying to get his SE legs into the big leagues he was bounced early in Philly in his major league debut last weekend and now can the noise start here in this fourth inning pressure being applied with a one out single by Henderson followed by santand first and second one down for Eloy Jimenez first pitch change up low on Jimenez for ball one VZ had all those years on the south side of Chicago looking for greener pastures in Baltimore the 1 bounces the plate again boy that change up is stuck in his hand a couple of times and this guy can Club it and hopefully there's some Thunder left in that bat after the huge Splash that he made as a rookie where he finished fourth and Rookie of the Year balloting with his 31 home runs driving in 79 and an 828 Ops in the co season his Ops went up to 891 but 2-0 her Manz backs away from a fast ball and it's three balls and no strikes I can't imagine in his third plate appearance with the Orioles you'd green light himz here but you never know I would turn it loose Big Man 3 0 he is taking and it's an inside corner and gift perhaps it might have been in tight and him Min has thought it was Ball Four to get him aboard over at first and he might have been right looking at the fox telecast on the strike box now the big guy can let it three and one with two on goahead run at the plate the pitch swinging a line drive into Le field that's down for a base hit great read by Henderson as he streaks around third he'll come in to score it's the first hit as a bird for aloy Jimenez he gets Baltimore on the board with an RBI base hit and it's two to one Cleveland here in the fourth that ball is absolutely smoked into left field he turned it on with that 3-1 pitch and he laced it into left no doubt about it to the mind of gunar Henderson he knew it was going to get past Ramirez and roio and he bolt it in from second base well there's still some thunder in that fat for Jimenez that was great to see you'd love just to see him feel good and get back to the player not only he once was and everyone expect him to be but the one he knows he can be and that's a big swing in this ball game Ben the Orioles three consecutive Les on the left field here comes the kid Carl Willis the pitching coach making a mound visit with Runners on it first and second and one down here in this fourth inning the tying run moves into scoring position for the 22 year-old who made his major league debut yesterday here in Cleveland Kobe Mayo right-handed hitter stares at at the Lefty one down in the fourth and the pitch fast ball Zips in there for a called strike Mayo was chatting with you before the ball game and he was going over the sequence of working that first plate appearance to take a couple of very difficult pitches to lay off didn't show that he was too eager but felt like he collected a base hit when he walked the 01 so we got a bounding ball on the left side of the diamond Ramirez into the hole stares it taking away a play at second base because he juggled it he'll make the throw to first to retire Mayo but he will move santon there over to Third Base in JZ stands in scoring position with a go-ahead run at second now at two down and the ball and sand arrived at the same time to Ramirez so that's a really tough play and hit way too slowly to turn two and he did double clutch it too you're right but he made an accurate throw to get mayo but now a base hit here by cower can get give the Orioles the lead Gold's been swinging the bat very well carrying a 15 game hit streak to the plate and a first pitch curveball in tight on cower Lefty on Lefty 22 for 57 with seven extra base hits over his last 15 games one for five with an RBI last night one for two with a double on Thursday cutting a Miss over the slider one ball one strike anchored on the third base end the slab cantillo Rees the pitch low two balls and one strike on cower right now in a cluster of consecutive games with hits for the major league lead Vladimir Guerrero Jr homered in the Bronx in his first at bat earlier today to stretch out right now the longest active hit streak in the major leagues getting it to 16 the 2-1 rip the first base diving stop made by Naylor pops up and the ball stuck in the leather he's got no play and the game is tied santand there racing in with two outs he scores from third as Naylor makes an unbelievable play diving on top of the line Beyond first base but the ball got lodged in the webbing of his [Applause] glove cower will pick up an infield RBI single and we're tied 22 it really did now did cantillo break to the bag at first I think he assumed that was going to get by him and get down the right field line it may not have matter it got completely lodged in the webbing I've never seen that quite like that before but cower still beat cantillo to the back here's James mccan who tops away the first pitch sharing off the curveball for strike one Naylor's Play Still saves a run by the way and it keeps cower off second base in scoring position that's still a great defensive play infield single for cowser he's now hit in 16 consecutive so that streak will continue into Sunday they're tied 22 here in the fourth Runners at the corners mccan at the plate cantillo checks in on a short lead by cower at first the pitch aan takes the curveball low one ball and one strike on James mccan batting in consecutive frames let off a 1 two three third inning of bat dring out to second base menz on at third cowser with a good lead now at first can till it to the plate and Maan fouls it away one ball and two strikes on the number eight hitter a homer for the Guardians made it two nothing birds have scratched for a pair here in the fourth to tie the game the one two swinging a fouled back what a good rip at a high fast ball made by mccan he was on time but just couldn't Square it we've seen the fast ball Cana wants to reach back for a little extra top out anywhere between 95 and 97 mph action starts behind the left-hander in the bullpen the onew that's high and tight slly pending the can back at the waist it is really remarkable how comfortable James mccan looks now in his second start since taking a fast ball on Monday in the face the 2-2 breaking ball in the air out to right field circled by Thomas he'll get there make the call make the catch and retire James McAn and the or but the birds come up with a pair to square the score on four singles two men left in this four then we're tied 22 Midway through the fourth on the Orioles radio network with us today a developer from SeatGeek quick question my son's wedding clashes with the baseball game we do not mess up your name we pride we pride ourselves

double play Runner goes oka's throw is great and they got him again and it got yok on the Maryland Shores dealing with some significant thunderstorms rolling through the area many without power but cranking up the batteries and bringing Orioles baseball alongside tonight hopefully we can help pass the time Lane Thomas Andre Jimenez and then Daniel schneeman well bat against Zack llin here in the home fourth inning of a ball game that has had a number of surprises in it and it's not the rookie with his third home run of the big leagues it was the walk to Steven Juan in the very next pitch then that was built it out but the Orioles have bounce back it's now 22 as we begin the fourth and a first pitch strike into Lane Thomas Orioles had four singles back in the top of the fourth inning RBI base hit by aloy Jimenez and then an infield RBI single here's a hard ground B foul just skipping past the third base B thas behind no balls and two strikes a national and now a guardian 02 to Thomas Tails outside one ball and two strikes right in the me of the order batting fifth now two for n in the series the onew fast ball popped up Shallow in right field retreating back from second goes holiday he's got his arm spread but he's called off by sere he came a long way in to make that play on the Fly and there's one down on court performance for Zack effin after being acquired by the Tampa Bay Rays made his debut on Monday against the Toronto Blue Jays have the twin bill opener where he went through six Innings he struck out seven had 10 hits allowed it's a weird line when you look at it and allowed three runs all in one swing first pitch to Jimenez a called strike on the top part of the Zone Addison Barger hit his first major league home run a three-run shot the only runs pleed by the Blue Jays in 115 Orioles win pitch upstairs on the second basem one ball and one strike left-handed hitter at the plate the pitch swinging a line drive into right field a base hit well Andre simz continues to annoy Zack effin Zack effin has only made one career start prior to tonight against the Cleveland Guardians and it was Jimenez who left his Mark for Cleveland that day against the big guy hitting a home run off of effin last August and going four for five so now lifetime he's 5 for seven against Zack effin one out base runner here in the fourth of a two2 game Daniel schneeman the batter takes a big hack at a sinker for strike one schneeman had a two- out double in the second inning and then Bo Naylor left him in scoring position Outfield lined up straight away the infield back with Henderson banked off towards the middle of the diamond at Short effin with the hand spread apart turns to check in on the lead now brings the hands together a long pause and Deals swinging a Miss that's the cut fast ball off the hand of effin working the top part of the zone and man did schneeman ever sell out on that cut made a pinch hit appearance on Thursday night his first start in this series here's a hard ground ball and a bounce down to Mount Castle at first base goes to Second for one and no return back to first base made by Henderson that one hopper ate up a lot of time Mount Castle did a slight leap leaving his face to make sure that he grouted very cleanly made the long throw over to second to take off heenez and schan is going to reach on the fielders choice there's a little bit of controversy here Ben because hez did you know kind of a wiy veteran play and started racing back to first base just to kind of disrupt everyone's timing Henderson had no Lane to throw back to first base I think he's a chance to get the double play here that time himz never bailed out of the way and if Henderson lets that one fly it's going to knock H menz down in the Coconut here's the pitch that's a curveball that stays outside on Baylor yeah it's a little bit of an interesting play and boy have we ever seen some interesting baseball plays just in 72 hours in this city staman on at first short lead the pitch swinging a Miss but over top of the curb ball I guess at that point it's up to Henderson to clear the runner and make the throw or is the runner supposed to bail out of the way and make some effort Runner goes from first the 1-1 taken outside M with a throw and a bounce down to second in time to get the out Henderson slapped the tag down on the hands of schneeman he's caught stealing and that will retire the side boy that is today's play that makes us smile brought to you by Affordable Dentures and implants call 1800 denture today we are through four here in Cleveland on to the fifth we go one two strike oh oh that pitch not going to count we have a bul yeah we have a bulk yeah I don't think he stopped I don't think Bole stopped and

appeal to Third Base where Andy Fletcher says holiday held up so it's now 2 and0 to the batter 912 two up for Baltimore here in the top of the fifth Jackson tries to poke one the other way it goes foul back a home plate two and one p little part of this game given the greatness of the Cleveland Bullpen canelo's pitch count now at 85 for the rookie making his second Major League start so a huge opportunity here against cantillo the Orioles got to him in the top of the fourth curve bone a swing and a miss two and two to Holiday he took a mighty rip at it and came up empty [Music] there's a little bit of old school thought I think for Steven vote in this situation where he wants the kid to qualify for a win the two- two that one skips away from the catcher nailer three and two to Jackson yeah I'm sure you're right he pitched really well in the first three frames but the Orioles made some really hard contact against him in the top of the fourth and he allowed two runs the 3-2 Jackson in the air to deep left field schneeman racing back getting turned around turning around and it bangs off the wall and holiday will make it to Second with a slide sheaman got turned around on that and then at the last moment he turned around and saw it hit off the wall so an opposite field double for Jackson holiday to begin this top of the fifth and that will do it for the rookie Joey cantillo so like that Cleveland going to the best bullpen in all of baseball and the rookie is finished after going four plus a batter on this Saturday night at Progressive Field and this pitching change here in Cleveland it's brought to you by Point Breeze Credit Union the Orioles have the go-ahead run at second base with a pitching change here at Progressive Field on the oral Raider Network baseball can be and Lawrence Butler sends one out towards center field and it's going to get in the bullpen Lawrence Butler with another Homer and Lawrence Butler to left field and tracking back at the wall jumping it's gone has been their calling card is he going to make it three Lawrence Butler second deck he has announced himself with authority [Music] today Joey cantillo in his second Major League start goes four Innings we do not mess up your name we pride we pride ourselves here on MLB Central that's right right I'm getting them right we have a little game for you are you ready lower Lao had his first big league hit against Nathan avaldi wow no oh your first knock zaldi off the end of the bat nice one though what were you thinking right there oh you your got a couple outs here last night this is right on right against Austin Slater who bunts it pushes up the first base line it's fielded in Fair territory and he has no play that is a bunt base hit on a sacrifice attempt for Slater perfectly rolled up the first base line now that one may have eventually gone foul perhaps with the runner now at third Avala felt he had to feel the baseball that was only halfway up the line but the Orioles catch a break a had no angle to throw out Slater at that point and he just ate it first and third nobody out and here's Ryan M castle that is a mental breakdown in real time time is called as the pitch is released and it's a pitch clock violation on the pitcher Avala Avala had no play at first base the only time you touch that ball if it continues to hug the line and you think that the runner at third is going to try to score then you have a decision to make I think you're right that's just a mental blunder one and0 out of Mount Castle and he fights one off foul out of play off to a right one and one well the Orioles have to cash in here abala is a good pitcher making his 29th appearance a 314 ER he has 50 punch outs and 48 and 2/3 but the reality is he doesn't have the stuff that's coming so first and third with nobody out in the top of the fifth for Baltimore one and one to Mount Castle and he takes a fast ball off the plate inside two and one now Slater runs pretty well he's at first never a great Bas stealer but he has a couple of double digit steel seasons in his career that pitch down to Mount Castle down to way it's three And1 to Ryan opponent against AA hitting 232 it's actually worse than his season last year pitching for San Diego the 3-1 on a line to Short Stop and the catch is made by rokio on a sinking liner he saying he didn't catch it it was off the shoe tops and that's going to be a double play everyone thought it was a line out but then the second base umpire John bacon said it was safe and it was caught off the dirt by roio but Mount Castle had stopped running Brandon Hy is out all the umpires will get together now it's either a disaster for the Orioles or it's going to be first and third with one out everyone thought including roio the short stop that he caught it on a line and it's going to be called a line out so just one out and not a double play first and third for the Orioles rokio did a good job trying to sell this he went down to one knee he did catch himself in between a little bit of where to go and how cute to get with this but at the end he decided to make the play to get the out and he catches it on the Fly and it's clear the closest umpire is the one that called it safe as if it was going to bounce but that was not the case well here comes Gunner at least they get the call right holiday is at third Slater at first almost a disaster for the Orioles toss over to first base and Slater back standing Gunner one for two he's single and scored in the fourth yeah the umpires got it right looking at the replay it was definitely caught on a line a very soft sinking liner right now the Guardians looking for a double play ball 22 game top of the fifth the Orioles out hitting Cleveland tonight so far 7 to3 this is right on left and Avala pitch Gunner chops his first base side foul past Anthony Sanders the Orioles first base coach down the line and it's on one to Henderson who is not homered since July 14 that was the Sunday afternoon before the allstar break an AM Miracle win for the Orioles big game here in Cleveland tonight the Orioles no longer in first place in the American League East for the

have been scripted any better for Ryan McMahon a warm night alin's been good so far as first pitch of the fifth outside one and0 plyn has thrown only 57 pitches he's been very efficient this one breaks outside for a ball a curveball that missed 2 and0 to bonor he was up when Daniel schneeman was caught stealing 891 do up for Cleveland this pitch just off the plane inside a sinker that missed in a rare 3oh count to starting that bat for Zack effin so the Orioles already have gotten into that Cleveland Bullpen they were able to grab a lead the 3 0 there's a strike on the inner half to Naylor 3 And1 so far for effin four Innings of work just three hits two earn runs a walk no strikeouts and he's allowed to home run there's a strike that one gets the outside corner with a cutter and the count now full three and two so from 3 0 to 3-2 as nailor calls time on this Hall of Fame induction night here in Cleveland for the Indians and Guardians of the past this is luk foul out of playoff to the left pretty cool moment in the Orioles Dugout before the game when Jim Tomy who was by the way briefly an orial at the end of the 2012 season when the Orioles were making a playoff Run part of that 93 Miracle 2012 Orioles team the Orioles acquired Tomy but he went to introduce himself to Jackson holiday the 3-2 pitch swing and a miss he struck him out and he got him with a cutter so from 3 0 to a punch out affin gets his first K and for every orial strikeout thrown this year autom Lake Healthcare makes a donation to the Alzheimer's association autom Lake Healthcare senior there and rehab for life's curveballs one down and the batter will be Brian roio the pitch by effin curveball outside one and0 I actually was ease dropping Ben a little bit and I think I heard Tomy say to Jackson your dad was a hell of a player the one oh way inside it backs up roio 2 and0 Tomy who still is even though he doesn't have a bat in his hand and he's not in the box I'm sure he's terrifying to all pitchers still the two- on the ground on the right side Jackson's there he has it on to first two away right on cute Jackson holiday gets a handle after his conversation with one of the alltime great players here in Cleveland and just a prolific Slugger he probably makes many pictures that ever had to stare at him in the batter box put a rocks in their stomach again he is one of the alltime great Sluggers in the history of the game of course part of those middle 90s late 90s Cleveland teams that were so good strike there to Steven Quan and we saw a bevy of them on the field today Jim Tomy was here Kenny Lofton was on the field today Victor Martinez was on the field today Quan Tak strike to 0 and2 Kenny Lofton got a huge Ovation Manny Ramirez in kind of vintage Manny form was here today they put a few organizational people in the Hall of Fame and also CC Sabathia the O2 that one runs away a curveball that missed one and two those teams that won two pennants and five of six division titles pretty much the most perfectly constructed lineups you can think of as this is shot foul off the bat of Quan Off The netting down the left field liner remains one and two you had the great leadoff batter in Lofton you a great Defenders like Lofton and bcll Tomy I think started at third went to First Paul sento was in the mix Sandy Alamar was here of course for me my best and worst memory of Sandy alamari broke up a Mike mcen a perfect game in 1997 the nth then at Canden yards the one-w pitch Juan takes one high for a ball two and two and to that end that was 1997 the Indians that year won the penet they had Abra Bell Carlos spero is also here calling the game actually on Spanish radio to our right the 22 swing and a miss another punch out for effin and he has a one two3 shutdown Fifth and that one two3 inning that's today's fast play of the game it's brought to by the Maryland Lottery good start for Zack effin the Orioles have a 3-2 lead as we head of the six at Progressive Field on the Orioles Raider Network hey stands [Music] it's this ball hard way back to right field Soo doesn't even move Otani has homed in the allstar game 28 so far in the regular season and in his second at bat in the allstar game he launches a no doubt three-run home run well he is so strong so tall and has leverage with that bat in his own I believe he gets a split in the middle of the plate and didn't miss it he hasn't missed many with the Dodgers here's the guy that brings more oo and eyes than any of them in sh Otani 3 one sh with first doer home run okay you can sign it it's

pretty much lined up straightway that Clos play now is under a review Guardians asking for their a lot of 20 seconds check in with a video room and they were they were late on the ask I believe and there's some frustration on the near into that Dugout bench too because of [Music] that sandin to mccan sidewinding rhander hit the inside corner with a pitch called strike one yeah they wanted a review so they must have thought cower was out that could be a breakdown on a number of levels M takes outside one ball and one strike usually any close play automatically gets recked in the video replay room so when the phone rings regardless there's an immediate response yes or no and it's that simple runner at first two out the one1 M Trails it out out yeah just off the outside corner and it's two balls in one strike you have to simplifi it because of the urgency and we saw the urgency right there that clock appears to move faster but it's only a lot of 20 seconds a 2-1 pitch s thought he had the outside corner but it missed low three balls in one strike now on mccan if mccan can reach this move could really backfire because then you have the left-handed bat of holiday Bo he been swinging it tonight and tonight 3-1 fouled back Brandon Hyde has a few left-handed weapons on his bench if this thing continues to Austin Slater who's right now in the hole can working his it bat with

finding a new home here in Baltimore wearing that Orioles orange tonight as part of a first round that was epic in 2012 when he was drafted P Martinez flared out a play off to the left two balls and two strikes on the left-handed hitter he was a padr prospect then traded to the Dodgers and then went to Philadelphia in the Jimmy Rollins deal the two- two pitch up and away from effin three balls and two strikes while in Philadelphia working his way through the minors he found lifelong friendship and certainly a home over seven years of the major leagues have included 10 postseason outings in 2022 Martinez rifles it up the right field line screaming into the corner Corner foul that ball was turned on and hit hard by Martinez but a banked it foul a long way down the right field [Music] line how foul was it oh about 17 beer cans there's a drink rail to the right of the pool or about four or five fans are in Standing Room [Music] situations 3-2 swinging to pop up Shallow in left inheriting the base is loaded with boy he tried to go with that breaking ball he just put a little bit AC dirt this is a position where the hitter has a big Advantage you know they don't want to walk a run in the pitch swung on that's hit towards the right field corner is it Fair it is a foul ball off the top of the wall surely extra bases but it just went foul by no more than four or 5 ft just barely a good not able to keep it fair not a bad pitch though up and in from beaks tough one to handle but jock was all over it if beaks feels comfortable this is where you would expect to see that cutter I have no idea how jock hit that as well as he did it's like he pulled his hands in towards his neck and then allowed the barrel to Whiplash into the ball wouldn't recommend it the 32 and time called and what do we have here it looks like Peterson was the one who was granted time I was wishing there for a second maybe a pitch clock violation have been assessed but no such luck Jock's a a veteran he did this earlier to Keller you saw him with a late timeout call does it again right here to beaks in a big spot so trying to get a little bit of a mental Advantage here is jock he's trying to be a pest here's a 3-2 swung on that is hit deep to right field but it is hit I think more foul than the first and that one is going to go into the aligan I mean you've now seen jock demolish two balls in down the line and if you're jayen beaks you got to be thinking I need to hit something on the outside corner 3 two swung on and fouled away that might have been the best swing by jock of the entire at bat not because of what the ball did off the bat but what jock was able to defend that was the best pitch to beat it thrown fast ball 94 down and in and it would have been strike three yeah did a good job of spoiling that pitch right there 3-2 now off the plate ball for game tying walk on an A+ at bat by Jack Peterson we saw almost the exact same at bat from him the previous time up before the rain delay against Keller worked a long one and got another walk this one clutch to bring in that run keep the bases loaded and now you got Josh Bell coming to the plate with an opportunity to score a couple of more tied at one the Dbacks are safe at home with blue sky Pest Control the official Pest Control provider for the Arizona Diamondbacks and Chase Field Bell the switch hitter batting righty and the first one is in the dirt from beaks the count one ball and no strikes I mean that would have been just killer if the Dbacks got nothing out of a Bases Loaded nobody out situation now the 1 oh swing and a miss and it looked like a change up just under the Zone the count is even at one and one this is how he attacked catel Marte also first pitch change up second Pitch change up and then he went hard in 1-1 swing and a miss a change up again this one instead of being under the middle of the plate was a little bit off the outside corner to the right-hander two off speed pitches and it's now one and two Beeks ready the Lefty throws ad Bell takes in the dirt two balls and two strikes you don't generally see four straight of the same off speed pitch to a Major League hitter but beaks loves that change up to righties it's because he has very good arm speed it looks like a fast ball coming out of his hand two two swing and a miss finally went to the fast ball and he gets a strike out to end the inning but the Diamond Backs Salvage the frame they do get one and we go to the bottom of the fifth all tied [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] hey Gordon hits one high hits one deep in Mexico it's gone for a two run home run the big man makes it a three to two game as he crushes one to right center and an infield hit and yordon drills one deep to center field oh my goodness

third base will lead off for Pittsburgh beags and Pirates tied at one bottom of the fifth here's the pitch and Sone who came into the ball game last inning missed high for ball one three Innings from Montgomery gave up one run on one hit the home run as we mentioned to Joey V and now the 1 is swung on and popped up who wants it four Diamondbacks converging in and it is Carol The Last Man Standing ball in the glove and there is one out here in fifth inning that's the perfect popup priority play you work on early in the season spring training in between all three guys second base center field and right field got to work on that communication nicely done right there to make sure that everyone's on the same [Music] page all right here's a short stop O'Neal Cruz and the pitch going to be at the knees for his strike Sone starts him off off with a slow curveball one one the count curveball at 76 he's got a fast ball he can throw at 96 and the 01 there is the fast ball excuse me 97 as count evens up at one ball and one strike Cruz actually drew a walk against Montgomery in his only plate appearance the 1-1 swung on and that is fouled one ball and two strikes I love seeing that slow curve ball from Slate Sone to get ahead in the count it just really slows the batter down and then the 9697 looks even firmer coming in right after that saone looking for the strikeout and here is the pitch to Cruz good take that time another curve ball two balls two strikes looks like the Pirates have another right-hander up in their Bullpen two two now inside that nearly hit him and Cruz is stare back at Sone did not appreciate 97 uh that inside that's not a bad pitch though I mean 2 two coming in trying to get him to swing at something Jam him but just too far in there 32 Mighty hack by Cruz got a fast ball middle of the plate and now it looks like Sone mad at himself perhaps missing his location you saw Cruz it looked like he timed that one up much better so if he's feels good with it this is a great time for something slower 3-2 again swing and a foul tip held on by Moreno and Sone gets the strike out he just feels good with that heater tonight I mean he's throwing at upper 90s and this is what you can see as a starter he might be holding back just a little bit right trying to save something he's usually 93 95 as a starter but when you're coming out of the pen only a couple of innings you feel like you can RAR back a little bit more that's what he's doing tonight two down for the center fielder Taylor Diamondbacks and Pirates are tied at one this is game two of a three-game weekend series here at PNC Park it'll be the final regular season matchup between these two teams here's the pitch and Taylor takes low on outside game one of the series Was Won by the Diamondbacks by a final score of 9-8 and such a back and forth Affair where obviously a 17-run game the offenses were the headline acts here's the one0 swing and a ball hit in the air to Center McCarthy's got a hustle back and on the warning track he'll make the catch as the inning comes to a close so Sone turns in another one two three inning this time in the fifth and we go to the six tied at one that'll bring Travis darno up to the plate two balls in a strike here darno gets into another one the left Center see you later a two Homer ball game for Travis darau and it's 6 to3 Atlanta and this was impressive from Travis darau my goodness to get a hold of 98 mph and turn it around at 110 how about 400 and 45 ft for Travis and that swing actually looked a little bit more controlled and easier than the one that you commented on when he took the big [Music] hat Otani scals another baseball base hit on the right field pz struts home three nothing Dodgers that came off the bat at 119 mph like I if I'm playing first I don't want any part of that that's the hardest of his career 11 19.2 if you're keeping track at home I mean thank goodness that wasn't at [Music] somebody 1 oh and this ball in the air to deep center field to toia hit another one he just did and he's tied it up this ball is a little bit toward the end but it's still deep and it's got that is gone that was over the orange line I believe this ball is touched to left center field it's got a chance to be his third how do you like that a three Homer game for Big [Music] Mike 21099 and get a guaranteed minimum $100 cash

Kyle Nicholas out of balls State University first pitch and lordis scel tried to sell a pitch inside but that's a strike and count is own and one Nicholas this year 1 and2 with a 3.28 ER 33rd appearance this season 40 strikeouts though a whip at 1.3 as the o1 is outside so he uh can be susceptible at times to allowing guys to reach base certainly what the newbs are looking for here in this one-1 ball game Nicholas has good stuff big tall guy 6'4 that one down low has good stuff upper 90s 98 99 mph fast ball has a hard slider and a hard curveball to go along with it and he does strike guys out but that whip High because of the walks walking five per nine right now the 2-1 pitch swung on slow grounded is short Cruz charging has it and with that explosive arm throws to First In Time and that is going to be out number one here in the sixth inning it's a great way to put it when you watch O'Neal Cruz throw the ball it just comes out so easy but like a rocket and for him we mentioned yesterday how many errors he has this season leading major league in errors at 21 I believe and he is it's not a matter of how hard he can throw it is just can you throw it accurately here's McCarthy now and the pitch from Nicholas is a back door strike curveball at 86 he was originally drafted in the competitive balance round B by the Marlins was Nicholas but then he was traded a few years ago from Miami to Pittsburgh because there's another swing in this and the count is nothing think in two Pirates were uh looking to try and get some more young controllable cheap pieces to their roster as now the O2 swung on weekly grounded this time to Second and it's Kinder FFA who has it throws on the run in time two up and two down and well the Marlins they got Jacob Stallings back and the Pirates got Zack Thompson Conor Scott and the guy on the mound well the guy's got good stuff got a good arm he's done a nice job this year like you mentioned the strikeouts a good erra but the command issue that is the only thing that has gone wrong for him so far but looking good tonight here's Suarez and the first pitch swung on and missed nothing in one the count Casino Arizona and Talking Stick Resort the Valley's richest and best rewards voted best casino and a Central's best of the desert here comes the 01 Suarez takes that's a bit low 99 mph on that pitch he's a a guy who reminds me a little bit of Sone where you put him in that starter's role and just the stuff is going to be toned down a little bit to try and get through five six maybe seven Innings now the one-1 Suarez swings and grounds at left side foul but man you put it in that Bullpen and Hey listen you got five batters let it rip you can see what the output looks like that's spot on I mean we've seen tonight he's got great extension I mean he releases that ball closer to home than in the vast majority of pitchers and he's got good velocity to go along with it oh onew head high up and in and Suarez just out of the way that is not fun for anybody nobody likes seeing 97 coming up towards their face at all after a pitch like that a lot of times you'll see that hard slider down and away [Music] 22 swing and a miss struck him out and the inning is over Diamondbacks down in order here at the top of the sixth and we go to the bottom of the sixth in you're one of the most humble players in the league cancer and you always choose to celebrate your teammates achievements over your own you might see their contributions as more impactful to the greater good of the team but they also need you

Chris gajol alongside Tuffy goish thanks for joining us on a Saturday night quite the game we've had so far that includes an hour and 8 Minute rain delay as Sone ready for his third inning of relief he works at the top of the order in Andrew cutchen and the first one is rolled foul Owen on the count top of the order here first time facing these hitters for Sone going to be a key inning for him these are the guys that swung the bat really well last night 01 and he tried that breaking ball high that landed in the strike zone but just could not get the call on the count now even at one ball and one strike one swinging a miss not a whole lot of imagination in that pitch just reared back threw a fast ball about as hard as he could down the middle and McCutchen he could not touch it one and two the count go right back to it throw another one okay the pitch fast ball a little bit High definitely out of the Zone count two balls had two strikes I like the idea you saw the swing from McCutchen on the previous pitch I wouldn't be surprised to see another one here two two two two pitch check swing on a breaking ball and it rolls foul beyond the bag at [Music] third there was that slow curveball 75 right there and McCutchen the speed differential like you mentioned earlier 20 mph speed differential it's just really tough to slow yourself down muten fortunate to have that check swing roll foul con facing McCutchen Reynolds and Joe in this inning by the 22 after a long long hold is swung on and fouled McCutchen like so many veterans are so good at having a few swings in their back pocket which no lower bodies really used there's no power at all it's only designed to foul back a pitch that you don't like another two- two and it just missed the corner again another pitch that could have been a strike but the Diamond Back pitchers have just not been the beneficiaries of such calls tonight slay Sone couldn't have thrown this pitch any more perfectly right on the bottom outside corner 32 swung on and fouled away but like you said McCutchen able to spoil him got the call and this pitch right here another good fast ball but able to fight it off the best ones are able to do that 3-2 pitch swinging a ground ball left side Suarez has it foul ooh my third base umpire Ramon De Jesus adamantly saying that that ball was fast foul Granton we don't have the best vantage point as we are it feels like 10,000 ft above sea level but a lot of that ball was in Fair territory and very hard to tell right where it goes over the bag I mean on the screen on our monitors it looks like it might have caught the base as it went over but it's up in the air so just very uncertain definitely from where we're sitting you're right all right so McCutchen makes his way back to the bux this will be the 10th pitch of the itat one- one R score bottom of the sixth inning at Sone ready the right-hander he throws swing and that ball just yanked foul McCutchen way out in front of a fast ball there so all right catchy go back to that catching brain of yours and what are we thinking here you could throw anything right here I mean he's seen all your pitches right now he's fouled off the fast ball I would throw another good slider right here 3-2 swung on and line to the left field to base hit tried the fast ball again and mccut aboard to start the sixth inning soone not wanting to give in right there I mean you don't want to walk him after that long at bat trying to make him put the ball in play and he does just kind of middle of the plate in McCutchen after seeing so many pitches finally gets one that he can handle so McCutchen aboard here is Brian Reynolds and Reynolds over for one with a walk and looks like McCutchen is having a little bit of an issue he's holding his left knee and the trainer for the Pirates and Derek Shelton are coming out yeah looked like they might have saw something while he was running for sure and like you mentioned as he was on first base kind of reaches down down and grabs that left either lower quad or left knee and looks like he's coming out of the game now all right McCutchen is done some sort of injury had a real hard time getting down the line after that base hit and so who are the Pirates going to use as a pinch Runner this early in the game if you use a Pure speed threat that's the guy you have to have hitting for the remainder of the game yeah going to take over at the DH spot whoever it is but going to be interesting might be triolo we saw Alica Williams last night pinch run he was sent down today I'm thinking triolo might be the guy here but no one's come out of that pirate Dugout in this situation nobody's down there getting warmed up or getting ready initially so they got to get their helmet on get ready to go and head out there giwan Bay is the guy who's going to bring in take over at first diamond back saw firstand this guy is's a real speed threat on the bases see if he test Moreno behind the plate today he hasn't had a chance to warm up he's been sitting down had a rain delay so see if he's ready to run right away [Music] here and now a pitch clock violation is assessed to Slade saone that's just so ridiculous to me there could be that long of a delay the Pirates taking a a considerable amount of time to choose their pinch Runner and then slap the Dbacks with a pitch clock violation I couldn't agree more all right so the 1 here to Reynolds and there's a swinging Miss by the way Bay the native of South Korea this year has three stolen bases he had 24 last year he's only appeared in 13 games for the Pirates and there's a throw to first runner backage safely sone with a first pitch change up to Reynolds right there I really like to see that I mean we've seen him land the curveball he's thrown good sliders obviously the heater working today so he's been able to land four different pitches for strikes 1-1 and Reynold swings and he fouls a fast ball back one and two the count twins lead the white socks 5 to2 Chicago trying to avoid 19 straight losses so if you think you're having a bad week try bad three weeks now the onew little bit outside to Reynolds two balls add two strikes no score in Oakland Dodgers in the A's but the Rockies with an early lead over Martin Perez and the Padres want to nothing bottom of the fourth inning from the Bell Sone will throw to first again and Bay is quickly back in there that's the second disengagement keep in mind nobody out in this inning we are just beyond the halfway point all of a sudden things are tightening up a little bit 22 and Reynolds takes off the plate 96 it's going to be a Full Count here it feels like both teams see that this is going to be a tight game the whole way I think that they know that each run is so important tonight so taking every batter and every base runner very seriously three two runner goes the pitch swung on that's belted right center field McCarthy at the wall it is gone a two-run shot by Brian Reynolds it's 19th of the season the Pirates lead 3 to one but no doubter off the bat here Reynolds as soon as he makes contact he is not running hard out of the box he watches this one fly out of here and Jake McCarthy no chance out there and that ball was struck very well a fast ball just middle away and Reynolds we said has been swinging the about well for the last two months and does a lot of damage right here that's kind of been how it's been for slate saone on the mound this year really promising start major speed bump in the middle and now the pitch to Conor Joe a called strike and he is someone who has been victimized by the Home Run ball this year for Sone that is his 13th home run in just over 70 Innings swung on off the end of the bat towards shallow left long run guel he cannot reach it that's going to fall down for a base hit Joe digging for second the throw is a beauty Outfield assist number five for guriel as he guns down Joe it's second base and there's one out in the bottom of the sixth inning great play by guriel right there you saw the infielder in him come out he catches this ball on the run and throws it on the Run perfectly located to Marte that's our cool play of the game brought to you by Chaz Roberts go to Chaz Roberts for Arizona's leader in heating Plumbing Cooling and caring Chaz Roberts serving you it's 42 it looks like the Pirates are going to challenge this this one so we've got a replay review brought to you by Planet Fitness Get Fit For Less at 10 bucks a month this is interesting to me because the way that Joe ran off the field made me think that he knew he was out the whole way and I can't tell I haven't seen a good view yet but he slides kind of around the bag and might get his hand in there but I I feel like marte's glove hits him in the hand on his way but we'll see if if they're able to overturn this call because they got to have clear and convincing evidence that the call on the field was wrong I know the Pirates fans are very eager to see it overturned I I really don't see enough here to to have this one overturned yet we have seen some calls that look very clear and obvious and they didn't change the mark so I I don't know uh I'm just the last week has really shook my confidence in my ability to watch pictures well here's the thing Joe tries to get his hand in there does marte's glove just barely Nick his hand because the next tag is not until hits him in the ribs and by the time that second tag gets in there it hits him the runner is safe wow so it's a double for Conor Joe forget the Outfield assist and there is still nobody out and here is Brian DEA Cruz I just don't know how from that you can definitively say without a shadow of a doubt that he got that hand in there before tag was applied but you're right that's why I thought that it would be hard to overturn the call that they made on the field here is day Cruz and the first pitch cut on and missed no balls one [Music] strike single Homer and then a double and sione's got a lock back in as the -1 pitch swung on and missed it's now 0 and two we're now in the sixth inning here you feel like it and now it looks like as I look out at the Bullpen we're going to get some action in the Diamondbacks Bullpen this is a situation where you want to keep this game close you still got a shot to come back right here 01 swing in a miss and he struck him out three pitches is all it took I said 01 by the way was on the video board but knew it was 0 and2 just didn't say it nice slider by Sone right there 02 they have pitched De La Cruz well the last two days a guy who's swinging the bat hot coming into this series but Diamondbacks have sat him down a lot these last two games Bart one for two with a homer and sione's first pitch check swing appealed to first he sure did that'll be his strike the count o and [Music] one Diamond Backs have gone to this slider down and Away to Bart a lot The Only Hits we've seen him get have been on Fast balls middle of the pl and one hanging slider on the inside corner yesterday one pitch and a swing and miss the count nothing and two slider that time from [Music] Sone I mean this is where now as you mentioned before if you can get an out here and just kind of get two and 2/3 relief from Sone and just the two runs allowed good but not great it at least helps the Diamond bags Bridge themselves to the back back end of this game now the 02 and the fast ball up and in good setup pitch got a couple of options now you go with another fast ball or I think the more tantalizing option that slider low and away yeah you've set him up now you've gone down and Away a couple of times with the slider you've gone hard up and in you said it you can go up and in they might try to freeze him down and away or back hard in again the one two swung on and queued fou see this isn't fair you you set yourself up with multiple choices you have to commit to one if you're going to be The Clairvoyant analyst that predicts what Happ you can't say freeze him up and in or maybe go the slider away or you know if he's feeling frisky to change up like that's that's too much coverage I commit to one pitch all the time I'm just saying he has options in this situation because he's done a nice job during the at bat the one two just miss really good pitch count two and two now didn't get him to chase on that slider right there he tried to slow him down the previous pitch with that curveball about 76 mph I believe and I would like to see him go back to a slider right here just one pitch a slider 2 two slider missed outside actually the curveball and the count is full all right so which four pitches might he throw here now I'm kidding run at second one out and this is a big pitch for Sone big pitch right here execute you cannot RAR back and just try to throw it by him here you have to locate something 32 swung on and that's going to fall into left center field to base hit great read off the bat by Conor Joe he just took off and ran he'll score and it's another run for the Pirates there in front four to one this here not a matter of execution I mean he located this ball it's a slider it's probably off the plate away but Bart reaches out and just hits it off the end of the bat weakly enough to land in front of guriel now Bart starting to catch fire for the Pirates got him with the long ball now he does it with a short ball and we're going to see a pitching change called to the bullpen brought to you by Sanderson Ford best playing a new Ford it's Sanderson Ford the Pirates [Music] center field robl back T his deep shot here today evens the game and Cario strand wins it lucky number 13 he was over 12 backto back bombs down to their last out the Reds take the day

a gem of a game goes to the Dodgers in 11 Innings it's TK Hernandez the twice got it here and it was Will Smith that ended it darned if you do darned if you don't and that's life against the top of dodg line yes and that will set the stage you call in if you missed the live conversations listen on the Arizona Sports app or wherever you get your podcast the home of Arizona Diamond packs baseball is Arizona Sports the local sports leader deback Skipper Tory lello talks with Burns and gambo Friday afternoons at 2:30 on Arizona Sports night 87 in the Arizona Sports app top of the seventh inning pirates with a 4-1 lead over the Dbacks di backs will send up Gabriel Moreno against Kyle Nicholas to get the inning [Music] underway getting close to 10:00 local time here in Pittsburgh first one from Nicholas is inside for ball one at an hour and 8 Minute range rain delay that obviously knocked us off schedule Nicholas ready in the 10 pitch is inside for ball two two balls and no strikes to count been a little bit of a quiet night offensively Dbacks just the three hits Mareno tonight is one for two now he swings hits a hard grounder to Second and ker FFA to his left Hoops it up and throws to First In Time nice defensive play that ball was hit pretty well yeah this ball smoked right here by Moreno but FFA over there I mean he can really pick it and at second base you know he just makes it look super easy right here is raldo Pomo Pomo singled in the third was hit by a pitch in the fifth here we are in the seventh and Nicholas fires slowing in well a good time to remind our fans that there are 2025 Advantage memberships that are now on sale get access to flexible ticket plans and receive exclusive benefits like concession and team shop discounts member only events and more as this one swung on that is cranked out to right field de Crews on his horse he can't reach it that's down and it's off the right center wall Oromo will hold it second and that's going to be a one- out double there a DE backs now have a runner in scoring position at the top of the order coming up Pomo turns around this 96 fast ball middle in does a nice drob pulling his hands in and thinks about going to third on this one but decides to hold up his second a good choice right there with one out give Corbin Carroll a chance here drive somebody in Carroll is over for three here's the pitch he swings and he pops it up on the infield Third Base side and krien Hayes with room will make the catch again this is the major league leader in Infield popups is Corbin Carroll and he has the second of the game on the first pitch of the bat yeah so far tonight for Corbin a game to forget a couple of strikeouts and a couple of infield popups with runners in scoring position so you know you hope he gets another chance in the ninth inning to come back and potentially take the lead for the Diamondbacks or gets another opportunity to help the team out here is catel Marte first pitch from Nicholas off the plate for as dominant as the top four hitters were in the lineup yesterday for the Diamondbacks that 9 to8 win they have been largely stagnant the top four hitters and the contest tonight 10 from Nicholas inside two balls had no strikes to count top four hit hitters zero hits they have struck out five times they have drawn a couple of walks both of those from Jack Peterson so need a little more production from the top four and maybe it starts with Marte Nicholas ready that is 2- swung on Grounded towards second there's Kinder FFA he's got it from The Outfield grass he'll throw to first and time and that'll do it for the dags in the top of the seventh we go to the bottom of the seventh stretch time in Pittsburgh and the Pirates leaded four to time for the great mascot race

seventh inning stretch brought to you by Arizona complete Health transforming the health of the community one person at a time I'll bring up the short stop O'Neal Cruz Cruz 0 for one with a walk and the pitch from manly low and outside one ball and no strikes to [Music] count Cruz as the 1 oh swung on and missed he homered off of Joe back at Chase Field got a hanging breaking ball I mean he hit this thing just a mile in the sky it looked like it was going to be a shallow fly out to right but it just kept carrying and carrying and now man's 1-1 down low two balls in a strike I forgot to mention when Joe came into the game he got a first pitch double play last inning and then a first pitch out he got three outs on two pitches hard to do High Chopper off the plate this is trouble Suarez beand pick up throws to First not in time oh man that's as well as you can do it by Gino Suarez and he just missed the out now that is going to be an infield single here for Cruz there is nothing else Gino Suarez could have done Cruz flying down the line and he even looks at third base smiling as he crosses the base but Gino Suarez bare hands play throws it on the next step Cruz just too fast one out single for Michael a Taylor and here's the that is going to be off the plate one ball no strikes 4-1 Pirates bottom of the seventh here's the pitch swung on and way out in front was Taylor he hooks it foul for the Diamondbacks if you want to stay in this ball game this is a big inning you have one out got that big first out you got Cruz on base now you need to get Taylor here get this second out get back in the Dugout here stepping a throw check on and runner crws at first Pirates have their oldest Chapman available in the bullpen remember tomorrow Pirates Phenom Paul skin will pitch the [Music] finale here's the 1-1 swung on and fouled back not only does he just possess really good stuff but for the majority of his very young and already dazzling career he's proven he can provide length that has allowed Derek Shelton to be Uber aggressive with some of the guys he's gone to the bullpen with pitching the second consecutive day cuz kind of like the dback Pirates going to go a little bit without an off day yeah ski stuff is out of this world along with commanding it as well one two swing and a miss and Manti play he Strikes Out Taylor two outs Manti blows this one by Taylor just a 90 mph fast ball but he slowed him down with the previous pitches this one up and away and coming out of Joe's low arm slot that ball looks like it's rising just a little bit all right here's gwan Bay he replaced an injured Andrew McCutchen and he swings at the first pitch for strike one a swing and miss that pitch a little bit up a little bit in giwan Bay was brought in as a pinch runner in the six inning after it looked like McCutchen tweaked his knee or as quad after a base hit to left now the o on slider missing [Music] inside Brian Reynolds on deck hit a homer last time Joe manip want to go right after bay 1-1 and a generous strike called give it to man ofly one ball two strikes that front door breaking ball and had Bay moving out of the box have the count one and two Cru it first two outs here's the pitch Runner goes that is outside the throw to second is not in time O'Neal Cruz 11 stolen base of the Year Joe manly the Lefty O'Neal Cruz goes first pitch on Mana PL or first move excuse me and that allows him to get a great jump and even though it's a good throw from Mareno with a strong arm just not in time two balls two strikes trying to get the strike out here as mantiply and the pitch swing and a miss he struck him out and the inning is over so mantiply strikes out two does give up the infield single but no damage done and we move in to the eighth inning Pirates [Music] three and two Donovan runs gold Schmid takes strike three throw to second to tag double play Runner goes oka's throw is great and they got him again and osoka launches it to deep left Daman is back his first hit is a padre is a home run what an inning for Kyle higashioka throws out two guys trying to steal in the top and goes deep in the bottom good for the kid did

in new Fort at Sanderson for chadman a 376 CR and 46 prior appearances he will face a pinch hitter for the Dbacks Randle grit Lefty pitcher and now a righty hitter is gritch is pinch hitting for Jack Peterson and the dags frankly they just need base runners right now down by three runs with only six outs remaining Chapman is ready first pitch and gritch will take High one ball and no strikes we talked last night about Chapman in the command issues you know he walks seven and a half half per nine innings so possible that the Diamondbacks are patient here work some walks 10 pitch Chapman fires a strike in there that one the splitter pardon me the slider at 86 and the count one and one I mean he was throwing the ball pretty well was Chapman yesterday with the exception of one pitch and now the 1-1 swinging a Miss 103 mph fast ball to Josh Bell we talked to Josh in the pregame show he said he slowed the ball down with his home run not quite Josh it came in at 103 went out at about 106 and 1/2 as one two off the outside corner maybe he meant he slowed it down in his mind that's how he was able to hit 103 mph huh huh I like it that's very deep wish I could have done that when I played slowed it down the two two swing and a foul ball fast ball at 99 it kind of seems like with Chapman and maybe this is the case when guys with his stuff get a little bit older that it it takes about a batter and a half for that velocity to finally get geared up it's like he's preheating the oven that is his left arm the chu swing and a miss splitter in the dirt and gritch is down on strikes it's also possible that second day you might not be as recovered you know yesterday we saw the 101s the 102s the 103 for the Homer maybe just a little bit of fatigue today only hitting 100 mph so far but he's also got that nasty split that we just saw there 2 two to gritch to go along with it well here is Josh Bell I'm sure part of the reason why Derek Shelton wanted to bring in Chapman was to give him a chance at Redemption first pitch to Bell grounded up the middle over the second base back Kinder FFA has it on a backand and the throw off the glove of the first baseman Conor Joe and Joey Bart you going to do it he's going to do it he's going to put a tag on bell bell didn't even Flinch towards second base you cheeky little minks and that is going to be an infield single here for Bell you got to put the tag on him just in case they ire makes the call but this play here FFA tries to take his time throws it a little bit up the line but Connor Joe there he had time to come off the bag catch that ball and tag Bell still who was not quick down the line so he tried to make the Big Stretch and not able to reach it but he could have had time to come off the bag catch it and then tag Bell one on and one out here is Lord escuel Jr they're going to rule that in E4 by the way is the pitch a Strike De gree I'll count as o and one so it's no base hit for Bell and as such it'll be the fourth error of the year for Isaiah ker FF it'll be his first in a pirates uniform and now Chapman's 01 off the plate outside one ball and one strike the one1 outside two balls and a strike well a well-timed walk would really Aid the Dag's chances of a late game rally it certainly would and for guriel he's got a chance here to get that fast ball away that's where Chapman likes to throw it two on swung on and fouled back as litter in the zone it's now two and two most teams pitching guriel hard in off the plate and then soft away that's what that splitter was but Chapman tends to go down and away with that Sinker so if guriel is able to stay on that pitch he can shoot it the other way like he likes doing CH Chu on the way swinging a ball grounded foul still two and two [Music] wor coming off back to back AC Thea between 1 and 2 in of rain have fallen additional rain strike that's slider ball one mathio for three two outs eighth inning Pirates up 4-1 here PNC Park Middle game of

Bell tossed to catel Marte the second baseman who applied the tag oh they pick off Reynolds he was going to go he was running I think it was a hit and run Maybe and you know you should never get picked off on a hit and run but I think that's what it was it was a 1-1 count and that's when the Pirates do hit and run uh on that count uh I'm guessing that's might have been what that was you don't see Reynold straight steel much but again he definitely was running on the pitch Ball's pop out out of play the one out nobody on and is a ball and two strikes on Rowdy tles here's the pitch from seaal tles swings in misses two away and now Brian De La Cruz he is 0 for three in this one one and hit list in his first eight home at bats the former Marlin pitch from sea wall down low the 10 pitch

side Mitch Keller started went four scoreless but left after an hour 8 Minute rain delay 2-1 pitch from Bednar fouled back Dennis Santana faced three batters in the fifth one of those would score great job by jayen beaks coming on at a basis loaded situation one man did score fabulous work by Kyle Nicholas and scoreless eighth inning for Chapman two2 from Bednar swing and a miss one away in the ninth nice splitter got [Music] him Gabrielle Marino now comes to the plate he is one for [Music] three our buddy Greg Kirin celebrating a birthday tonight he's got friends and family we visited with Greg here in the booth earlier Mareno couldn't hold his swing on a breaking ball here for the whole weekend starting off pretty nice here on Saturday night yeah he seems like a huge pirate fan he's swinging to miss Pittsburgh native who was the original general counsel the Columbus Blue Jackets many years ago now retired down in North Carolina but does not miss a game on either radio MLB.TV going to the count on Marino with one away in the ninth David Bednar with the pitch in the dirt on Deck is switch hitting Heraldo Perdomo one-w pitch from Bednar swing and a miss got him swinging and missing at that splitter tonight two batters face two strikeouts re that you may have missed Romo last man standing make ATT as evidenced right here by these last six hitters Pomo shows bunt he'll take his strike and the count is 0 and one I mean when Bednar came out to his closer intro not only were the lights flashing but the lights on the clementy bridge were synced up to his intro song oh one there's a rip to first pass to and it goes down the line bomo rounding first on his way to Second d Cruz with a strong throw but it's off the mark and Pomo in safely with a head first two out double decision going for two when you're down three in the ninth you definitely don't want to make a last out if you're base that's what it would have taken they they'll make it close but I'm not sure there's any reason to even make it step to close there two outs if he would have stopped at first they would have probably let him just go ahead and run the second you know what I mean yeah absolutely so why take a chance getting thrown out by the outfielder great arm shown off there by deor Cruz pitches High 98 mph to Corbin Carroll you got to be thinking game situation all the time two doubles on the night for Pera he got now 12 on the year pitch is inside to Corbin Carroll catel Marte on Deck 4-1 Pirates lead bednar's 2- there's a [Music] strike two and one on Corbin Carroll David Bednar the Renegade sets the 2-1 missed in three and one look at tell Marte he's anxious to get to the plate here representing the tying run yeah he's the guy you don't want to come to the plate this inning one of the best players one of the most underrated players in baseball Cel Marte on Deck three balls one strike bnar with the pitch he walked him it was low and here comes catel Marte two on two outs Marte representing the tying run tonight he is 0 for four last night he was two for five homered twice the Diamondbacks scaring around in their Bullpen now they'll have to get somebody up and start getting loose just in case with the tying run swinging the bat the pitch is over for a strike he started him out with a splitter everybody on their feet 0 one count on Marte here's the pitch from Bednar that is strike two another Splitter Splitter Splitter checking dinner throw it again the balls two strikes two outs two on Pirates lead by three in the ninth there's the pitch from Bednar checks and takes up 100 milph that fast ball and Marte lays off he down to Third Base ire Ramon de Jesu said he didn't go bednar's best of the Year perhaps he was reaching for a little extra on that one now the one-w pitch to catel Marte line drive base hit into right field Run's going to score it's 4-2 hero in from second base Carol Motors to third in the batter was rich as the DH when he pinch hit but now it's going to be Alec Thomas the Lefty batter good example of why you don't take any chances you know if Poma would have got thrown out at second base trying to stretch to that double none of this happens yeah and that's why you you you have to when you're down last inning you got to take it 90 ft at a time you can't risk making it out on the bases you don't know what might happen behind you if you just play it safe and now you look and after that last single now he's at first now he's not a play Setter he's a tight run so his job as far as base running might be a little different here well now the Lefty hitting Alec Thomas pinch hitting for Randle gritch who had pinch hit for the DH jock Peterson last time Alec Thomas was one for three with a walk and two ribbies last night here's the pitch he takes a strike splitter again lot of Splitters tonight Thomas hitting 208 on the season in 28 games with three Homer 17 runs batted in he got ahead of Marte 0 and two on those Splitters but then after showing him that 100 mph fast ball he got the base hit on the next splitter oh one pitch low went back to it glitter missed one ball one strike one and one first and
