continues on a Saturday night at Chase Field in Phoenix the Dodgers and the Diamondbacks first and second place in the National swing and Miss unless he gets the breaking ball going soft contact will be the key that'll keep the pitch count [Music] down discover movement that inspires two in this four game series's history first 4343 season we've ever seen as he marches his way towards a potential 50/50 lineup looks like like this in game two BS hit second Freddy Freeman hits third and then tasar Hernandez Will Smith some encouraging signs does the catching out of the Five Spot Lu at second Max Muny at third base hitting seventh with Roos at short and Kevin km gets his first start of the weekend in center field hitting nine time to take a look at getting it done presented by the Home Depot Marl Kelly is the only guy ever to make that many starts against the Dodgers and not get a win during the regular season but he had his moment game one of the Division Series last year with six and a third scoreless Innings beating the Dodgers for the first time he was very good there it was a lot of fast balls a lot of Cutters it'll be interesting to see if he goes with that formula or if he mixes in the change up a little bit more the change up has been an outstanding pitch form this year and so has the four seamer the Sinker and the slider not quite is good I would think that he would go with the same pattern as he faced the Dodgers with in the playoffs and and I think this guy he's coming off the ilil with a lot right shoulder strain this is the fourth start he's a guy that goes deep into games he has 36 starts in a row where he's gone five or more Innings Tor L says this guy is old school he would not want to come out of the game even if it was 200 pitches he'd be arguing when Tori said it was time for the day to finish 10 n win for the Dodgers yesterday wild and wacky game that wound up with one of the biggest wins of the year a five-game lead instead of a three game lead for the outcome of that one and off we go with ball one to Otani who is two for four stole his 43rd base and then hit his 43rd home run pursuing 50/50 he also pursuing the Dodgers seagull single season home run record owned by Shawn Green he's within six of matching that down a one-1 from Kelly Otani takes ball two single season list and his first season in La takes a change up low three balls in a strike you knew at the beginning of the year we were getting a great player but then he started to surprise us with these piles of numbers that he's racking up and now nothing is a surprise twings and misses count goes four historic contract is now turned into historic numbers and he is not disappointed all year instead of hitting and pitching like Babe Ruth he's hitting and running like nobody leading this game off and fouling it off he's number two in the majors in home runs behind judge he's number two in the majors in stolen bases behind Ellie de Cruz the last time somebody finished top two in the majors in Homer and stolen bases was 115 years ago and Ty Cobb did it stealing 76 hitting nine different time it is a different time and he is a studied hitter and he is a studied base runner I mean I've been around fans and you talk to him here in Arizona at the hotel and different places and they all talk about well how blessed is he to have all this talent but he works at it on the eighth pitch sends a towering Fly ball to straightway center field did he get enough he sure did it's scraped the sky when it came down it was his 44th [Applause] marvelous a nightly treat nightly history the greatness of sh Otani yesterday he hit one to the opposite field and he knew he got it he carried his Bat about halfway he was trotting and watching it he hits this one to center field and knows he's got it [Applause] and now it's BS back spinning in the Fly ball left center field they've gone back to back to open the ball game Muki with a majestic Drive of his own his 14 two to nothing in the blink of an eye Diamondback fans around town are saying I hope we win but I sure wouldn't mind if Otani goes deep that's fun to watch well now mooki follows it up this fantastic two superstars back to back and another one in the box and now Freddy Freeman driving one to right center field get out of town unreal three consecutive home runs to start the game oh yeah three straight home runs on three consecutive pitches and all of them glorious long drives [Applause] three in a row he got one last night he gets one here again tonight and he knew it all three of them knew it well T's was the hardest one to know mookie knew he got it right away and Freddy put an exclamation point on it to Oscar Hernandez pops it up foul ground at first paven Smith has room wow little bit reminiscent of game three of the division series in this ballpark on the other side last year when the Diamondbacks did this to finish off that series absolute Blitz three home runs last night three home runs on three pitches tonight here's Will Smith pulling a base H at the left field a boring single but for Will Smith continuing to look better and better he'll take it it's the home run last night he's been hitting the ball hard consistently for the last three or four days and now they're starting to fall in and Gavin loxs only 13 pitches for Merl Kelly it has happened in a hurry Lux swats one to third that's going to be a double play and that's the inning wow what an inning it was this is one they'll talk about for years three consecutive pushes three consecutive Stars three consecutive home runs gel paven Smith Adrien del Castillo through the heart of the lineup with Tores G in 19 Innings he has been locked in that pitch right there the for Stuff the change up in the slider it's faced them twice this year they've scored eight runs on 15 hits over nine innings he is ADD the sweeper now flyed to center field back goes Kier me at the wall can't get it and with the speed of Corbin Carroll he may go all the way what a start to this game it's an inside the park home run here Meer after this swing sets it up for a miraculous and he can't get there by about 6 in and after that the deflection alive these legs to move and boy do they turn over in a hurry and right about now he starts smelling [Applause] it Jake McCarthy takes outside ball one hey anybody can hit one bouncing ball left side Roos will have no shot with McCarthy speed the offense you said as well can also help the overall cause and it's obvious but to take pressure off into the games the pitcher still can that's pitch clock Violet a challenge today nice change he could get the ball put in play very quickly and gets him easy out one and two the other thing I get the curve ball sweeper slider to really break but with a change up fires one two to Peterson fast Ball's pulled up the middle base at center field home runs single single Kier Meers throw to third is off mon gu possibly an ill-advised throw from K pulling his hands in and gets some of the barrel on it and hits it in the exact right spot that could have been a double play ball gets at somebody and you go for a [Applause] possible just me Dave Roberts has said his favorite thing about Gavin stone is that an envir and as October draws closer more and more Dave Roberts is saying he's feeling like Gavin into the left Hernandez makes an intemp but can't pull it in McCarthy's in Peterson's headed home and the game is tied at three Friday becomes Saturday but the madness continues August 31st but I think he should reverse wow that ball curved right away from him but his inability needs to two paven Smith grounded to First Freeman's got it and they finally get the first [Music] out say Oscar gets a hit and an Airfield pulled in 24 years old thee two and0 Stones two- pitch little high H it on the correct plane got a Chase on 3 0 pinched in Infield very close on the right side and we go walked him and they're at the corners with one [Applause] away for the first Dodger fans were drowning out the Diamondback fans bottom of the first di yesterday but they would have packed houses here in re place up much more frequently these days Suarez sends a flyball to right center field Kier Meers over Arizona is going to take the lead here after the monster first inning for the Dodgers with the three home runs Arizona responds with a four [Applause] spot it's on 14 pitches Arizona now out does them slightly BR six to the plate in the first is the e man to bat for the Diamondbacks it's Luis gor taking late in the season said kind of coming off of a play Stadium earlier this year but he said another everybody even yesterday right before the game unsolicited headed up eventually but everybody's fired up for this series Chopper to short roas to the bag to end a wild first in crazy oh this has been crazy too second and buckle up they've been very aggressive so far a good first pitch from Kelly last four batters hitter but takes a certain area there's another one away three home runs already three runs on four hits today two balls in a strike pitcher nightmares M with the line drive to right and the lead off hit already the fifth for LA and they are hitting everything hope a home run on a curveball and home run on a slider I don't know what the game plan roas who has homed against Kelly before and is flexes one and right that'll get in for a base hit he joins that first pitch parade Mercy is where you say buckle up in the ninth it's one you needed to do in the first this is ridiculous what's going on here SE oh my goodness oh be in the bullpen with like kind of a semi everybody used Kier Meer shows bun and bottom of the order Kelly to the plate and Kier Meer lays it down kellyo gun it to Third and it's a wide throw coming up Flores tries to RIS his feet misses it per noo gets hit by IT Crowd Rises to its feet bounce foul hundreds they've started a game with three consecutive home runs Connie sends it in the air to center field this should be playable for Jake McCarthy but it will tie the game Throw heads into third it's four to four sacrifice fly for sh it wasn't a home run home runs and another RBI for Shi it's and Tor lell thought that the key play in yesterday's game was and three pitches later Will Smith had a three-run home run that wound up be in the difference in the game checked so he's going as soon as the arm gets cocked back out we see that's all we've done we had them and when you have them you got but then he does it I'm dead there's no chance I'm getting back to third hitter and the catcher Herrera had to change the game there's not always the big swing that decides the game a lot of time it's the onew to bets can't lay off two out hit this one had more depth doesn't often hit those as you're going to see him hit fast ball away one ball one strike on Freeman [Music] Kelly throws and Freeman pulls on foul less pain and less swelling would be a little slow with his hands though way was his longest this year at 437 ft longest of at third Kier me at first another onew pitch foul ball get off me ball stay away from my finger contact rattled it two and two couple weeks into that recovery at four Freeman with a base hit to Center to put him back in front Kier me goes first to third five to four in this SE Freddy gets an off speed pitch 92 is he going to throw that gets us out they're hitting it all ridiculous clutch hit thirds against Kelly Tasker Hernandez the Kelly in 17 Innings a 340 erra for guy who League average performance was a Scottsdale native and the played his college ball this roundabout Road leads him back to his hometown team Chopper a third for Suarez High throw but it's two a Domo meets off the second and takes upstairs for ball two and0 from Stone one of the most better this year County two and two 200 lb now swings and misses Stone slide piece with some deaths to watch Yoku with tomorrow here Meer sizing it up at the wall you had to start to think like oh boy if he doesn't catch this buckle up when that ball carolled it was over with and back to back case for stall beats location location is down the middle but some Spin and a little bit of movement big bounce with the speed of McCarthy to be close St inting our code and visit dodgers.com purchase to strike one on Will Smith you believe that turn the page to be fun there's so many different story lines and they're getting healthy all at the same time roller to foro Smith the first out we're back to the off one away for Gavin locks first on Del Lux is is going to be continuing to play catch but a little bit more aggressive with his throw he look like guys starting to definitely see the the end of the tunnel there as far different stress levels for different things as you go from flat ground to firmer flat ground McCarthy backpedaling catching and then when you start throwing down the hill those are he really stabilize the lower half puts more stress on if you happen to just tune in Clayton Kershaw officially on the injured list bone swollen can't move it and Dave Roberts said going to be ready for some outings in the regular season and then for the playoffs isn't healed yet and he was never the same won 150 games in his career arm in high school you have to start using your lower half and that's how you the ground up Kelly gets squeezed a little bit there mun's reached base in five singled on the first pitch that he saw in the first inning or the second in down the line a fair ball Al fast can Max Muny run he's stopped at third into second with the double his Roop they were very deep to start this at bat with a man on first first and two s bouncing ball right side it's second basee goret hurries it over to first in the [Applause] third the bottom of the third Jack Peterson leads off and takes strike one from Gavin Stone who followed up this inning so that's a good sign for going deeper into the game that sounded like a wet newspaper that bat was shattered I one gone in this third inning and here's guel start it's the most that the Dodger starter has made in two years 2 well he's gone between his little five and six start slump he actually came out of that throwing the ball harder sky scraping Fly ball to left from Gel tied [Applause] again yeah he oh man did he just really rotate his upper body Barely Used his hands at all it's almost like a golf swing wow that is some fast twitch fiber in the upper half of them kind of bat there was just no real release with the hand ball on a strike on paven Smith hits is on base percentage 500 the last week and a half in El Beno you get p in there there a change starters on the mound as far as their mentality they're getting their licks against them but they're just keep on coming Smith up the middle roas Chucks it over to first to get in nobody trying to miss bats as far as del Castillo had that lone walk ball one strike on the rookie C two weeks later he gets to go play in Miami play on this High fast B two taking him a while to get to that one was the change up his eighth pitch to delcast steo is a fast ball that's chopped up the box and Miguel Roos takes his time getting there and throws him out sacrifice fly leads off this fourth tied at five and takes strike from Merl Kelly on this 01 pitch takes it low one ball one strike he's only reached 100 RB one time in his career by the average is creeping back up too now at 290 maybe about 120 RBIs almost got him two two ground ball to First for Smith Kelly just beats Otani can probably that I used to hear Bo Jackson and Dion Sanders and really get Ricky Henderson in his and eight over to Trophy two balls one strike driven to left center field McCarthy will track this one [Applause] down and nine Freeman the one-1 pitch lifted right field but not deep Corbin Carroll is there and there's the first clean in into the game for Mar county middle last 47 games at leads baseball fined leagues by then you have a reputation his is good leader and he said early on he didn't necessarily feel like he could be those things to emerge more right here with 789 coming up to kind of settle in get the soft part of this order and get him out into this game payoff do it again that Bullpen you look it involved what else is there you've got Dan braer it would be three of four if Evan Phillips jday Fly ball popped into Center easy one for [Applause] K if G can get maybe another three or four to give that full pen cush you might see him no matter what way in the fourth Luis skor out of the eighth spot takes strike no eight Innings from the bullpen several guys who were unavailable going into the day but stepped up and said I'm good if you need an inning first pitch strikes it feels like he got squeezed on this last one first pitch strikes where he can get into the pitcher counts three and two on Gorman home with a 3-2 it is grounded up the middle roas waits for it he's been busy today 64 pitches and you got to be on your toes cuz they're going to Pomo struck out his first time takes a ball in the act of feuding a ground ball get to do something in the game dreamed of my whole life top of the order start the fifth to get the other ones out no Here Comes Stone strikes him out with a tailing fast ball to the inside game against Merill Kelly dod's got two more against hims swings and misses to a first pitch breaking ball has not been very good guys that carried him last year but gallen's not been himself he missed a month Kelly's missed a lot of five and that included a game in the world's matchups throughout at home he's got a 2 and 1 half-year-old daughter he's got a sun on the way to T Oscar drifts inside evens the count right lately a little bit yesterday off the end of the bat here Kelly to the was a tough one to hit off the edge even gets it off the end of the bat 243 Dave Robert said before the game he might be the best two trations to his defense especially for a catcher they appreciate everything that he if you boil it back behind the plate with you you're impacting of the whole staff asz they can see it and feel it or other than I'm going to be the best catcher I can be flipped into Shadow right field on comes Carol to make the grab to out now the Dodgers went M Kelly sort of that's ripped towards the right field corner and he head for for the corner extra bases for Gavin first or third out at third base stop sign from that one SE had a good series reached three out of his four time 10th game off of the injured list that's a base hit to right field carols up with it quickly here's his throw to the plate Lux is safe [Applause] what a nice little into the corner but enough angle on it to give Gavin Stone Gavin Lux a shot at kind of limping maybe it's just a little burn little rug burn strike on Roos No One from Kelly punches bounc to right side under Smith's glove toss to Kelly that's a nice play there K Dodgers with the Dodgers travel so well Gavin luxs on the mount actually first four batters all had hits and all came into score takes High two and one but the turnover rate is ridiculous grounded to Second Lux gets there and throws him out for the first never played football before said he wanted to play quarterbacks or before he even put on pads they made him the back knees don't come up to his waist and it's not a long stride he's like almost scooting city of Washington one of the boys in the boat bouncer off of the bat of McCarthy right back to Stone most and we mentioned him being a soccer blow there strike one Jack Peterson and Devonte Adams as his targets ni Jock's a BigTime fantasy football player and the way the draft order was determined by how far Tori hit each ball Jock's Teamster Merill Kelly is pitching Kelly's team name on it playing at UCLA strike three called on jock Peter base runner the last four hitting for Kevin kierman pinch hits here Merl Kelly still in a CH singled and scored a run rolls this one to Second gor let him face Otani again told you he'd get mad Tory llla took the ball from him hides it pretty well he Swan strike one first Inn nine guys out of 10 can't even think about in the roster would be able to hit it over guor again and retired this time this turn around is corresponded with the bullpens turnaround as a whole the bullpens turnaround has a league the last couple months Miss history today first time in franchise history the Dodger well Arizona then scored four runs in the bottom of the first two and two on bats mook's down on strikes [Music] [Applause] yeah it might be some strategy that you don't think you want to bring them in game in an inning when there's Runners on give them a fresh start man on second no out or second and third one out all of a sudden you're in the heat August 17th Tommy Edmond remains in plays center Chopper to short for roas and the first stop protecting the bullpen make sure you get arms up here we're going to be in trouble Scott's got to go to work finding priority boarding worst comes the worst they Char oh two to paven Smith only 140 but it's dry thought you were saying it like used to be really humid here or something no it didn't used to be here M doing things and that got plenty of water full here's a payoff and a walk wild pitch TI run into scoring position pulls this screw Ball Z off that mat on Deck Circle full turtleneck shirt or was just like a Dicky if just something that you have right two two got him swinging yep just the collar just the collar of the tur now looking it up sarez the two out takes the ball TI run and scoring inning Honeywell Chopper to third Muny stabs it a fair ball a long throw and a to six for [Applause] Bren okay Freddy Freeman does not and takes the ball Joe manip remains in after retiring Otani in pits last inning one ball one strike on this one-1 pitch makes it inside Balon Freeman sends a flyball the other way that is gel to haul it in on the track [Applause] Lefty hits it to left field like that when the spin takes over getting used again here 65 game in the another one of those appearances where these guys have racked him up Dodgers trying to go to 16 and swed to right center field headed for the Gap get down on Bas streak is 10 games as Hernandez doubles with one away in the seven just gets on top of this ball and hits it he's another guy who you're talking about Gavin LS how quickly he is coming out of slumps lately and you don't doubt it teoscar has been remarkably stretch you know what I think it is I think it's the knowledge of the strike zone Will Smith one for three two and0 just picturing all these places Full Count runs on a payoff Smith watches it bounce there's we mentioned at the beginning of the game and even in the pregame swing and a miss strike one Smith at first 01 pitch on the inside corner and it's own and two the one-w pitch just inside on ball in back in there [Music] wow two two look out make a mistake but that's too close they'll come after a look at second there he had a bunch of hit back here it comes fouled off Lu fouls it again nine pitch walk the other day against Baltimore just might be a strike but he didn't get the call Tor theel is going to make the change Max M's coming to the over at the deadline didn't have good numbers in Miami had started to pitch better just like first pitch bow off and B Roberts goes to him here one guy that's on the bench now that has tremendous discipline and plate hitters got him on three pitches with three swings a foul ball a swinging Miss and a foul tip up to roas chance here strike one four pitches 29-year-olds Z One pitch downstairs one ball one strike fly to the left field guel will put it away and the Dodgers leave The Bases Loaded Kik Hernandez plays third base after pin shooting for Muny Honeywell stays and base is loaded Honeywell at a scoreless six falls behind goret though three and one to open this seven o it's a walk to the leadoff man Pomo Ty run it first go ahead run at the plate takes outside him one of the reasons they like to have him Hit N got the call Elmo Carol McCarthy last three seasons and he feathers this one to Hernandez to move the ti run into scoring position fourth sacrif and at a 65 game in the seven thees have and the dirt there goes gor big 90 ft right there infield in record to open today's game ahead here two and one Arizona got four in the first they got one in the Corbin Carroll lifts it to deep right field bets on the move he will make the grab but a sacrifice fly has even the score at six Muki makes a very nice catch little bit off the end of the bat doesn't get all of it but it's enough to score a run and tie this game ball on [Music] McCarthy second or since the third inning on a onew McCarthy pops it up foul ground nobody going to get there SP Honeywell on a dead Sprint R over there to catch the popup I was afraid he something he might [Music] stride was coordinated one two McCarthy swings and misses tied up by that high fast ball though from his best side the right side Buck statuesque runs that clock out and throws inside let's go of a one two Edmond pulls it sharply through lead off base hit Tommy Edmond and so he's on with his speed and it's going to make contact and from the right side it's going to be barreled up an awful lot shows bun zero career sacrifices by the way that's not happening it's becoming more radical Otani on 2 takes a strike two and two at first two2 to Otani lays off count goes full strike count here on Otani Puck comes home and Otani takes strike three knee high on the inner half he runs on the first pitch Del Castillo's throw not in time and the go-ahead run is in scoring steel out of the 18 that he's faced that'ss could give him the lead with a base hit but this one speared by Thompson who throws to Third and they've got Edmond dead to rights r and Thompson what a play well the big fell on the mound collapses his back to help the running game Freeman bangs the base up to Center how to move bets up fair share of him this year and tasar Hernandez over for his first three that run at second base Chase badley Tom oh and two hand discipline when you get over there with that sidearm delivery and be able to get your fingers on but an 02 to teoscar he chased [Applause] again Ben casparus 25 years old in a Westport Connecticut and in a division Jack Peterson leads off casparius his first pitch is a fast ball for a to not pitch and get sent down but he's back quickly and he's going to get his first out right here luky Betson right one gone in the E two guarantee you it's right there either the nerves of the adrenaline home run and he's on the corner with a roxs and Deals strike fast B Line to Center Field Tommy Edmond makes a catch size sideways and then figured out that one's not hit as hard gain ground on it paven Smith with two away a curve for a strike and benas strike two pitches he can smch to paven Smith he grounds it foul off himself in the fifth round three years ago both side of the game two and two hide fly to right center field M bets is over no big deal for him no big deal for Ben casparus in a 66 game in the eighth a one two3 major league debut will stay in Smith once again Arizona one in the third Dodgers one in the fifth really the men left on B base Dodgers 10 cu Dodgers will leftt the traffic on the bases [Music] five a little with two strikes fouls it back one decision or the other who fires the payoff and Smith pulls it down the line foul Thompson tries again Smith fouls it again on the 10th pitch Will Smith flexes one into right field a base hit hard earned base hit to start the ninth for the Dodger catcher in on him and he does a great job adjusting just steeping the hands close to his waist getting the barrel there inside out swing base hit second of the game for Smith it'll be Chris Taylor to get the job done in the ninth inning and Austin Barnes a take good lead for Taylor fouled off strike one ways you might wait an out but in other ways you might try and get him to second to get out of the Chris is coming off that groin injury only has three stolen bases on strike two on locks there's a second disengagement you can take an extra long lead and make it a oneway lead where you're going back to First no matter what just to try and draw the throw Lu SCS the ball past him into center field gives Ryan Thompson a close shave right there go ahead run does a nice job getting to it loow into a lefty and that ball is belted field the ball squares lays it down beautifully Thompson to First and time but a sacrifice go to Third and then keeps the angle there to get plate Taylor at third the go-ahead Run Roos fouls back the first pit who he is not chasing slug like he thinks he maybe did the last couple years line and he oh my goodness gets robbed by gor leap a great piece of hitting edman strike one Kor one 03 the 02 fights it off Justin Martinez brings another 02 to Tommy Edmond inside or the slider in the dirt have it get away two into the right center field it's sinking it's down Tommy Edmond comes through two run score up to the point where he's actually out in front off the end of the bat what a dying little Quail out there in the right field he drives in two left-handed strike on sh Otani up and 103 going and two on Otani Edmond's going to take second right where they want him P count eight runs for the Dodgers four of them driven in with two outs power against Power here Otani hooks one on the line to right field that thing never got off the ground by more than like 10 fet it is caught by Carol that he's the most well rested reliever out there he's his best strike one running stays in the game and one fouls it off left-handed pitching the Ops this month was above 1,000 territory that's [Music] somebody popped up down the line Hernandez out teoscar on he got it one away in the ninth A6 game here's Suarez the Dodgers had a big lead in the ninth inning yesterday Arizona cut it to one Suarez in that rally able to hang on 10 to n and they lead 86 here Josh Bell Waits on Deck on a strike here's the home run yesterday 21st of the Year vast majority of those have come over the last two [Applause] months Phillips 1-1 on the ground is short for Roop calmly picks it two gone in the n [Applause] it was hit hard but it was hit at a guy that has a great baseball clock a clean pick took his time with the smooth throw when you give up six runs it feels weird to rehash the pitching and praise it first four hitters of this game all got hits all came into score Gavin Stone gave up just one run from there went five innings Bren Honeywell just a run over two innings Ben cerius one two3 in his major league debut and then Phillips the only guy left down in the bullpen from yesterday has retired the first two and the night C barus in line to get a w also with that one two3 inning the old Michael Peterson W in your big league debut be quite a memory this game has had quite a few memories this series huh some of the defense the three home runs that started it off then Arizona comes back and gets four on you in the first Josh Bell will pinch it first one from Phillips almost hit him tied run in the on Deck circle with two out of the ninth inning all saves are not created equal this one is a tough one know that there's probably nobody behind you two and0 that's where everybody's pretty much done their job and you just have to finish it off doing your job trying to make it backto back audience with the save for Phillips last time he did that was mid June fly to center field Taylor there the Dodgers for the hardfought dramatic 86 win they've taken the first two from Arizona these first two wins have been tremendous team win
