Guardians vs. Phillies Game Highlights (7/28/24) | MLB Highlights

So there's Kobe howard who's had a pretty good run recently in the Phillies farm system. He's overall two and seven with a 5.60 earned run average. You kind of have to slide away some of his, his first, the first part of the year outings. We got a sign that's got loose in the field. Might be a birthday sign for somebody. Nicks taking care of it making plays even when the ball is not , not, not yet tough to get that one back up into the first row in right field though a little light would have to jump pretty high line drive off the glove of Harper and trickles it to right field and that will be a base hit for Quan Rice will be a little frustrated with himself that he didn't grab that. Yeah, I agree. He probably would catch that 99 times out of 100. I always believe that the ball touches your glove. You should catch it. There's Martinez, I don't know you want a bunch of gold gloves. I ain't got nothing on my shelf flair shallow left going out the shortstop turner couldn't get there. It drops her head and the Guardians had their first two aboard. It's a little good fortune smiling on Cleveland early today. Two balls that could have been out, but they both found their way hits. Fastball got inside Martinez. He didn't hit it hard at all, but Turner going back on the shortstop couldn't get to it. That will fall as a base hit. So they've got the table set right now in the first, 1st and 2nd occupied nobody out. No score in the first. And the one thing Cleveland has not been doing lately is getting big hits when they've had opportunities to score runs popped up. So his eyes from the side dropped it infield fly was called though. So the batter's automatically out, the runners advance only if they choose to and they didn't, I want to put some Solas on there. Right. He's looking straight up in the sun goes, oh, I can't see. It's a bad feeling, isn't it? It is when you drop one and don't have sunglasses on, it's kind of like a powdered sugar sky. You know, it's a, it's not deep blue at all. Fry 35 RBIs. He's three for six in the series hitting over 300 against left handed pitching rolls that one to third. Bolton's got it to second for one. So throw to first in and around the 543 double play. Good job by Sosa to hang in on the turn as the throw was to the outfield side. He had to reach for it to take it and he is able to turn the 543 double play. Well, Joey Cantillo will be the starting pitcher for the Guardian today, your Chevy network dealer starting pitcher and welcome to the big leagues. You're coming into a nice ballpark getting your first opportunity against the Phils. He doesn't have a whole lot of innings so far this year got hurt coming out of spring training with a hamstring. The key for him, throwing strikes. He has had that issue in the minor leagues and in particular , this year with AAA Columbus, that guy that will lead things off. It's Kyle Schwarber, there's a lefty on the mound and those are his left handed or his numbers against left handers, really incredible field. Well, hit Martinez going back to the it down, Kyle Schwarber does it again. Ninth leadoff home run of the season. He's homered in back to back game 10. Phillies. I'll tell you he'd get everybody thinking center of the field. No stop in this team offensively. Absolutely, Michael. And this is, this is why he's hitting over 330 against left handed pitchers is because he can go the other way. Seems like he's making more of a conscious effort this year to do that. Here's train Turner, the right handed hitting shortstop swing and a ground ball to third ramirez Bobbles and drops it and Turner's aboard and for what it's worth the Phillies, that'll be an E FIVE on ramirez and certainly not with the rookie pitcher needs in this moment. This club smells blood in the water. Look out. They're like a shark. They will devour you if they sense any kind of a weakness, a swing and a miss got him on the slider away. So, Canti strikes out Bryce Harper. How about your first major league strikeout, Bryce Harper, a runner at first one out in the first. Here's Alec B A swing and a double play ball to short sliding stop. Roch, backhanded grab the second one relay by Jimeno is not in time. Watch this play again. Broch got turned a row with the sliding stop and Then he did so. No, here's Brian Roko. The shortstop roo batting 27 on the year with three home runs for the Guardian ground ball. Left side diving, stop home gets up fires to second and he got him. I'll tell you what folks is. 65. He's a third baseman, but he moves like a little guy and he took a hit away from Brian Rochel Jimenez. A little upset with himself. Looked like he got there with a dive. Obviously, it been a tremendous play to make it but couldn't come up with the kind of slams the ground thinking he should have had. Well now to bring up kyle Schwarber, kyle starting to get hot again after an zero for 19 during that road trip to Pittsburgh and Minnesota, a line drive out to right field that's well hit. Noel is going back. It's gone. Second home run in as many. That's a two run shot and he's like June hot today and the Phillies lead it three nothing. Thanks to Kyle Schwarber on the day they're giving out the Schwarm to. That's a good point. Beautiful. It looked like a little bit of an off speed pitch. Just tried to drill it and it got enough height on it. That's a great look, isn't he has? And the Guardians now have runners at 1st and 2nd. A pair of infield singles. We'll see if they can do something with it. Now, baserunners with nobody out and John Kensey Noel will step in center way back, Marsh looking up and it is going to souvenir city big Christmas indeed delivers spreading holiday cheer throughout Citizens Bank Park and we are all tied at three. That's exactly what they needed. Forget those singles, they needed a dinger and the timing was perfect. That is number six for John Kenzie and he ties the ball game up with one swing Gregory Soto will take over for the Phillies here in the top of the fifth Naylor up ball to short diving stop by turner throws just in time. He was aerodynamic like one of those swimmers making that play. We've had a couple of leads that haven't been executed yet. David for ball knocking him down. He got up on his feet quick, didn't he, Michael? He did, uh, kind of washed it into the glove. He caught it in the pocket this time. He knew he had to hurry old baseball time clock. You know, you can feel it. Here's Steven Kwan with two outs and nobody on a 33 game sends one deep to right down the line. The Guardians take the lead a laser to right by Steven Kwan, his career high 11th home run as he flies around the bases and the Guardians have their first lead since Friday night. 4 to 3. Cleveland. All of the runs today for both clubs have come via the long ball. One down. Here's Bryce Harper zero for two with the walk and the home run last night. Otherwise he's been hitless one for 10 this weekend. I don't know if something's wrong with Harper. He just doesn't look right, look the same, just missed that. I know. I'm pretty sure he'd like to have that pitch over. He just missed it. Noel out in right field. He's under it. Got it toward the end of the bat. There are two outs. I think Harp's too happy right now. Frustration and played this game has had that. He checks. Did he go no pitch down and in draws the leadoff walk jose ramirez one for three today with a base hit and a walk runner goes two strike pitches low throw it out. Not in time. That's a perfect pitch to steal on. Has his stolen base of the year? He got a breaking ball and it was on the backhand side of the catcher where stubbs couldn't come up and make a good throw, had a nice jump. He did a good job to get it there. He said jose had that opportunity. He picked the right pitch that breaking ball. So time he's had 20 homers and 20 steals in the season. Nail biter. Yesterday wasn't a great game for Cleveland for Philly. It was a great game because they offense, they got going, but it counts as one loss as Steven put it. Not necessarily in those words, but it only counts as one loss. You come back, you have a chance to win the series and they're one out away from doing just that ball, hit the short throw it. The Guardians come to Philly and take down the best team in baseball winning two out of three.
