second straight year meanwhile for the Astros they've been in the ALCS seven straight years after a Dreadful start they are in first place the lead is four it's five in the Lost G Kramer 6 and9 4.3 o and 18 starts 96 in the third inning 80 hits 41 walks 91 strikeouts leag batting 219 against a 28-year-old Altuve at 404 in this part swing and a miss Kramer able to get him so Altuve gone on strikes on the ground that's to short and Henderson handles and throws him out one two three and Kramer continues to do good work and now it's us Kikuchi the guy they will face High strikeout rate and that low walk rate he goes right after people and certainly Houston wanted to get their hands on him and tweak him a little bit so far so good here's pitch number nine of the at back in the air out to left center field and on the move and pulling it down is Chaz McCormick in the air and that scor center field but McCormack waits for it and Henderson retired that's the end and Kikuchi gets him one two three so one on and one out for Ben gaml wo and that one is in for a strike throw to Second tag by Henderson strike him out throw him out and the inning is over edley Rutman a one up throw gunar Henderson with a great tag and that'll end the top half of inning number two they maintain who they are in big spots and nice play over there by Den zenzo as he went sliding into foul ground on just a little Looper off the bat minutes welcome back Sunday night baseball from orial Park at Camden Yards we're delighted to be joined by the outstanding second baseman of the Orioles Jackson holiday how are you I'm doing good how are you cranberg getting ready to work here as he faces Zack desensi oh and holiday has it oh nice play Jackson I mean that's a hard play you're learning to play second base how difficult has the adjustment been um obviously coming up as a short stop makes it a little bit easier but uh I'm learning on the fly so uh yeah just happy to have a spot in the infield with the Orioles playing in college town was was really cool that was something that really I mean caught my attention obviously pretty awesome um got all the cousins and um both sides of of the family grandparents coming so uh really looking forward to that Jackson you're the man thank you so much thank you guys no score we go to the fourth and happy to be joined by Houston as pitcher Justin burland down in the Houston Third Base Dugout how are you sir doing great thanks for having me as a shot up the middle base hit Peña stays hot a liner up the middle comes with two outs you know there's a big shiny number that I'd really like to get to um that's going to be a few years away so uh got a lot of goals that one slapped down into left center field it'll touch down for a hit p on the move he can fly here's the throw to the pl and to late and you're Justin Bur handers say yeah the Astros have jumped out to a one- nothing lead and he Nubs it into left field just a little flare for gaml puts it in play gets a knock and Astros have Runners on first and second so two quick outs this inning and three singles in a row that is drilled out towards left center field o indeed a bounce off the wall and that's going to score two Des zenzo into second and the Astros have increased their lead it's now three nothing solid hit one Bounce Off the Wall this park is real the gaps are real and a lot of runs score from first as you see Justin there with his hands pumping up what we got the Italian Stallion going there what do you got there Justin I don't know what I did I don't know what that looks I can't I don't have a TV screen to see what I look like I hope it's not too bad it's never as simple as one guy figures everything out you're going to get help from different places that one rolled towards first Den zenzo will take it himself and belly flop and tag the B again Dan duette was the guy that that did that one hit in the air out towards Right Center gaml kuchi has been super sharp gets him one two three on 10 pitches but it's hard to hit 31 homers again as he laces that line drive to right he'll take that all day I was going to say it's hard to hit 31 home you're hitting the ball ground Ceno Perez has been quite solid this year but not just as a reliever but also making some catches on home run balls and not just with the glove no no no we're doing it with the hat and not one time not two times multiple times it's quite simple just look it right into the Hat who needs a gold glove when you can have a gold hat second time tonight that Rivera has walked and the Orioles have twoing on with one out and Ramon Aria coming to the play as a tying run and the Orioles have something cooking in the bottom of the fif in the air that is clock left center field way back got and we are tied Ramone Rus and CNL how about that the three-run home run something that the Orioles have done a lot of this year they come back to tie this bad boy but then cion bis in the bullpen I mean I mean we were just there we were having this conversation that's six home runs and he's caught with a seven and an eighth half in the bll pack one and two one out base is empty we're in the seven on the ground Henderson on the back hand ni play and Altuve retired there's two down 33 ball game top of the seventh gregman swung the bat well he's one for three gregman D this one left field that's pretty well struck Slater back and that one is gone Alex bregman will touch them all and the Astros have retaken the lead it is 43 Redmond with number 21 boy the Astros needed that it comes with two outs first pitch Yer Diaz makes a bid deep to left field pakay five to three back to back for the Astros bregman and Diaz a couple of bangers with two outs the Astros have scored all of their runs with two outs tonight here's Ramon uras had that three-run Homer in the fifth inning off of Kikuchi in the air left field off the bat of arus that one well struck towards the corner oh how about duban racing forever and then crashes hard into the wall Mauricio duban being led off the field after a spectacular catch as he was able to Rob extra BAS is from Ramon Ras so he went down and at multiple levels SL 306 386 517 get that Softly on the ground marus charges unloads and over throws [Applause] oard gamble to third Den zenzo into second the gold Glover ramono Rus throws it away infield comes in one out Runners at second and third and Jake Meyers is going to hit for duban flyball right field sandir circles back makes the catch throw to the plate and it's twoo late in offline and the runs scores down to third goes to zenzo the Astros pick up some insurance it's 63 Meers a pinch hit sack fly six to3 Astros bottom of the ninth oneon-one out for Baltimore on the
