Guardians vs. Brewers Game Highlights (8/16/24) | MLB Highlights

Of course, Cleveland has Jose ramirez. The Brewers have Christian Jelic but he's not healthy and he's not going to play the rest of the season as it turns out. That is news over the last 24 hours. Here is Aaron Savalli sixth start as a Brewer. You can see his numbers overall , five earned run average in three starts pretty good outing his last time out. That was against the Reds six and a third pits into the seventh inning. Five hits, two runs, one comes in third in the American League in batting average. There's a bouncer over to third base Joey Ortiz and that's how the night begins for Aaron Savalli from the one up bun in third base side. This is going to be a tough play. He got him, another dandy turned in by Joey Ortiz. That's a do or die right there. The pickup and he threw him out all in one motion. That's the only way he can do it hit in the air into very shallow left center Chone is there to make the catch and the inning is over. Gavin Williams will be the starting pitcher. He's making start number nine and he's two and four on the year. Bryce Duran back in the leadoff spot trying to go the other way , but it's right at Stephen and he makes the catch one down. Chio has hit 365 since the all star break, picking up the slack where Christian Jelic would have been able to do if he was in the lineup and Chio lines one down the left field line, extra bases. Chur on his way to second. The ball is bobbled in left. Now he's on his way to third throw comes in belly flop in there. Chur electrifying triples in the first inning. A lot of guys would have tried to cruise on to second base with a double but not Jackson. Now runner at third with one away for Tyler Black right back to Gavin runner at third, Ramirez was high but he swiped the tag down on his leg and that is a huge second out for gavin Williams and Company gavin did a good job. You do what you're supposed to do. You're supposed to go right at the runner as a pitcher. Contreras in the cleanup spot today. Contreras has the special out on this player's weekend. Look out right across his knuckles and it did hit him. So he will take his base officially on a hit by pitch and it's 1st and 2nd. Now with Adamus coming up, hit hard right center adam watching it's gone another three run home run for Willie adam number 22 on the year, his 10th 3 run homer and the Brewers jump on Gavin Williams in the first just when you thought the inning was a bust after Cheerio caught in a run down between third and home and the Brewers able to get it going a hit batter and a homer by Willie Payoff Bulls 332 pitch inning and the big blast was a three run bomb by Will Adam two down. Cleveland's got a base runner down three nothing for John. No down and away. Good take that time. He looked like he threw a slider and the Guardians have a pair in a board with two down and Then to the plate strike him out swinging with a changeup and a couple of runners left two away. Here's Will Brennan, he grounded to third on a bunt attempt his first time up. He crushes one again. That's that cutter he throws inside. He got it. It's now a seven game hitting streak for Will Brennan. The second hit and both hits have been with two outs and we'll see if the Guardians can get to and Ramirez chases one high cutter again, a strikeout to end the inning black reached in a fielder's choice and Then scored on the adam homer. Black shoves one into left center, a base hit you go get him in the hit. He's got Contreras now and it's ball four and here we go two minute board for the king of the three run homers this year. A swing and a miss. That was the slider that tonight has morphed more into a cutter two on with two out for Garrett Mitchell searching for his first hit of the home and he the speedy Tyler Black scores easily. Contreras to third and in the second with a sliding double. Garrett Mitchell. He needed that in a big way. Not only did he get the hit but he drives in a run. Keeps the inning going. Here's the pitch swung on the third backhanded on his knees by Ramirez caught that sinking liner to end the inning. So there's one down for Andresen with Naylor still at first base that's off the and the Guardians catch a break and Naylor can go all the way to third. Adam made a bad play worse. He made a double error when he tried to flip it with his glove to second base and it just rolled along the ground right past the ring. That could very easily be two errors on that one play. Now, you've got to take advantage of it with one out. John Kensey Noel throws home and Noel pops it up on the infield. Bang is there and makes the catch that's big out to away for Daniel. S full count runner goes swing and a miss with a big strikeout again. Here's Joey Ortiz. Joey Ortiz who shoots one towards the gap and right center Brennan giving chase. He can't catch it with the, he is on the move. He's around second, he's headed for third. The relay is late. It's a triple for Joey Ortiz Brennan gave it a shot an easy play for Noel, but Brennan called him off and once he got by with a dive that was three easy for Joey Ortiz. Here's Bryce Terre. Now an RB I chance lined back up the middle base hit Tang stuck on that curveball perfectly and he makes it five nothing Brewers. He sped up his bat after he was a hair behind the fastball in the previous pitch, Williams went curveball. Tang read it perfectly and lined it right back up. The middle. Peguero takes over here in the seven. This is where he's the be at his best when he starts an inning pitch strike three called fastball at the top of the zone. It's the top of the zone with a fastball and it is out. Number one throws and a strike called on the inside corner came back over the inside edge with that fastball. He picks up a strike out on Figuero pitched line drive and caught by Ortiz at third and the inning ends a runner on nobody out. Now, jose ramirez Banding left handed zero for three deep right here. We will watch it. Goodbye. Second shot for Hos and the Guardians do indeed get on the board in the eighth to make it a 5 to 2 game. And that gives Jose Ramirez 100 runs batted in for the season. He threw that breaking ball down and in and that hit halfway up into the second deck, Josh Naylor at the plate. These two teams are so similar in so many ways and one of those is how they come back, Naylor 1 to 0 pitch, ground ball towards the middle played by Tang at second throws to first and retired one down that will bring up David Fry zero for three right hander against grader driven high in the air deep right center field. Mitchell's out of room. It's out of here. No quick knee guards. David Fry with his 12th home run of the year makes it a two run game. They've struck for three in the eighth on a couple of home runs. 50% of the Guardian's home runs hit this year have come with a man on base. They've hit two home runs in the inning. One was a solo shot. One was with a man on base. It's a tight one. Wilson is out. Pat Murphy will call on Meares with one away in the 8th 8th inning, the 1 to 2 and he goes down, he goes a strike. Meares strikes out Jimenez for out number 22. Gone now Kinsey Noel at the plate and he got him, struck him out with a slider signature moment as a brewer for Nick Meares and the Guardians down to their last out, Stephen Kwan checks in third in the league in batting average. Juan drives one right field long run. What a catch to end the game with his first save since July and a defensive gem turned in by Sal Frelick once again to finish off a ball game.
