erra yand Diaz sends the second Pitch of the game to center field pushing back Kik Hernandez on the edge of the grass in front of the warning track he secures the first out of the game it's two- two pitch swinging a Miss strike three first k for stone second out Waits on this one to come down cero chugging up that line Stone an infielder growing up turns and fires to get him and finish off a one two three first taking the mound this afternoon for the Tampa Bay Rays it's going to be left-hander Jacob Lopez this is what he did in three games with the Rays five in a third Innings five earned runs first ball swinging Otani right but the yard's going to hold it one pitch one out no sweat for Jacob Lopez rookie BS caught by cavero two out isn't it nice to have athletes up the middle cavier there's you know there's some second basem that are not going to be able to get to that one two again swinging a ball Loop toward first on a hop snare on the back hand by laow flips to Lake Lopez covering in time to get Freeman and the Rays make two brilliant plays but behind Jacob Lopez in a one two three first three perfect Innings out of the gates for Gavin Stone Jacob Lopez has matched him six up six down for the Rays struck him out very similar to the pitch that he got teoscar Hernandez with it's that sweeping breaking ball lineup turns over the second time through will finally begin against Jacob Lopez here's sh Otani 02 reach four and cut on and Miss for strike three Jacob Lopez Rings up sh Otani on a slider outside M Stone has faced 10 batters now and retired them all here comes the number 11 hitter Brandon LA and the Rays have their first base runner hard single by Brandon La he didn't let him get to the change up this time no nope be ready to go yeah the first sequence of pitches was was pretty Next Level by Gavin Stone cinero punches a ground ball right side Taylor's only play is going to be at first two out and he's popped up on the right side Chris Taylor holding the glove up fighting the sun Freddy Freeman will take it though second popup recorded for Freddy so the one out single from La does not hurt Gavin stone for the Dodgers four pitch walk opens the fourth gr it out his first time did Freddy Freeman Hit List in 10 ABS this series it's lifted into left field low coming on still coming not going to get there Freddy Freeman will take it anyway he can get it on a weekend where he's looking for his first hit it falls in like that and the Dodgers in business here in the fourth he got him and there's out number one timely strike out for Jacob Lopez hit to right to the warning track goes to Luca where he makes the catch B will tag and make third there are two out however two outs and the pitch swung on and blasted to right on the run is Duca though in the corner he'll make the catch just before reaching the wall and Jacob Lopez bends but does not break worth scoreless in the fifth in La raising Dodgers Ben rfan flyed the Deep left center field by rvat Hernandez on the Run HS it in he' not been out there in months just a pure baseball player no matter where you put W him Kiki Hernandez Thrills that's awesome and that folks is why he is on this ball Club so versatile and then you add what he does in the postseason it's not even a question Kik Hernandez struck out swinging leading off the bottom of the third inning Hernandez flies the ball towards the Gap and left center field carrying well and over the wall for a home run second of the weekend for Kik Hernandez and the scoreless tie is broken the way he's playing he must think it's a playoff game right I mean obviously he's going to tell you in honor of Cobe Bryant what's gone on prior to the game and the festivities of Kobe being his favorite player why he wears that number two hits for each team Dodgers had the game's lone run as we go to the seventh Gavin Stone's been spectacular and Johnny Dua gets into one into left field and the California kid has tied it up home run DeLuca one to one you know the ra contact has been getting louder each the last three Innings and finally one gets over the wall and this thing begins again how about this trip home for Johnny DeLuca I mean this is something else so back even so Stone trying to take a deep breath here strikes him out number six gets him with that slider again it's an 02 to wall Strikes Out Swinging Gavin Stone with a couple of ks in the seventh bouncing back after the leadoff Blast by the former Dodger Johnny Duca there Hunter fedua there's fed's first hit in the big leagues all right Hunter fedua singles against Drew rasmuson and he's got a major league hit got to do the little hip turn down there in first base as well you know he's been practicing that front of the mirror and he'll get the ball for Hunter congratulations to Hunter fedua reedy's and throws it swing and Taylor slices one into right center field there's Johnny Duca though making the catch on the croop or then did he drop the ball he tosses into second and the throw goes back to first he is out so that's a double play to end the inning and he lost it on the transfer and he didn't go back to tag and I think every body is confused about what just happened now we have the bottom of the eth game tied at one sh Otani here's a 2-1 Otani tries to get out of the way and this it hit him they're asking if there was a swing that's down to third for Bill Miller I didn't see the outcome of that but again Dodger fans holding their breath it was ruled no swing so this is a hit by pitch but that's feels irrelevant at this point the bigger deal is is he okay waved off the training staff stays in the game Muki Betts first pitch swinging High Fly ball left field did you mooki mooki bets makes it hurt a two run home run to break the tie and the Dodgers lead it 3 to one yeah what a roller coaster of emotions over like a 60c stretch Otani gets hit and a lot of the thoughts are still on him making sure he's okay watching that replay but as we're thinking about that BS climbs in there and clubs a goahead home run to the ninth inning we go after Muki Betts homers in the bottom of the eighth 3-1 Dodgers in front Anthony bondes on looking for his second save got him with the high fast ball Anthony Bond slams the door the Dodgers beat the Rays three to one they win the series and they're five- one on this home stand the power shows up KK Hernandez getting on the board and mookie bets the big two-run shot Dodgers win
