MLB LIVE🔴 Arizona Diamondbacks vs Houston Astros - 6th September 2024 | MLB Full Game - MLB 24

coming up on the first pitch and towing the slab in this one Justin Verlander Chris you don't have to dig too deep into the numbers to see how good he's been oh he's been nearly Untouchable kind of a Silent Assassin out there just goes to work and guys look up it's deep into the ball game and they haven't been able to scratch anything off of this guy so look for him to do the same thing today maybe Go the Distance maybe hand it over to the bullpen at the end and try to get that W here comes a pitch haraldo Pomo leading things off and takes a strike the L in the pitch that's a ball swung on belted this one's got a chance bangs off the wall makes the turn and heads for second he's in thereo with his first major league hit and this is a moment I'm sure he'll never forget congrats yeah great moment for him and his family a guy works so hard and has to wait so long for this to happen and when it does can kind to be overwhelming boo you still have to stay locked in on the game but it's great when you could take a minute to just appreciate what you've done and how hard you work to get here this is Corbin Carol looking for his first big league hit right here swing in a Miss nice change up here's a fun fact on Corbin and I don't know if everyone remembers their first jersey but Carol certainly does he used to rock an Ichiro Suzuki growing up next pitch is outside Runner and scoring position nobody out and we're just getting started here in the top of the first this one in the dirt and an excellent job keeping it right there and a pitch foul ball there and it's seconds the with a foul a little that able to contact with that pitch keep the alive right the plate ground ball right side and it finds its way through for a hit rounds third headed for the plate he scores and they have the lead one nothing so he gets two Milestones with that hit his first big leag knock and he drives in his first run as well yeah you love to get both of those out of the way with just one swing of the bat and it makes the special moment even more special it's not just an individual accomplishment when you're also driving in a run for your team that's an it bad he's never going to forget here's Josh Bell trying to pick up his first knock in the big leagues and that's off the Inside Edge ball one sing maybe some nerves getting the best of him in the first well it's hard to know exactly if it's nerves or not but he just doesn't have right now those hitters on the other side they're going to say it's nerves and use that as a Competitive Edge to try to jump on him even more Carol gets his lead at first nobody out on the ground right side to Second that's one to first dou play nicely done the three in to make you gotch cover and the middle infield throwing to a moving Target everything has to be perfect and right there they made it look pretty easy and now it's Christian Walker Swing and a miss curveball in the dirt oh and one [Music] two out Bas is empty swing and a ball popped up pñ as this one sized up makes the catch inning over but they pick up one run on the RBI single it's now one nothing back here in Houston and towing the slab Merill Kelly well he's been a real quality starter for his club and coming into this one what stands out for me is that right handed hits have really struggled batting below 200 on the it seems hard time picking up his release point and tracking the ball into the zone so we'll see how right handers do against him in this one Jose altu in the Box here lets that one go for a ball next offering is foul back and now two balls in a strike foul off down the right side that one cutting but missing down low outside and that is ball it's tough after falling behind a two BS and no strikes but now at least gets a against a but he needs to get back into the strike zone and start pitching with conviction now Alvarez swinging a foul over the screen and back out of play and the one that one fouled off runner at first with no outs here gets a piece and it stays and two kicks one ball two St that one way outside now two and two got him looking not sure about that call pitcher might have gotten a friendly strike three and that's the first strike out of his major league career and it could be the first of many and he meets the goals he's set for himself in the expectations other half for him he doesn't want to just win games he wants to dominate at this level do you think Young pitchers could sometimes get too caught up and trying to rack up KS early in their career H I think they can it's kind of like a hitter that doesn't have power The Thrill is still hitting the ball over the fence and so for a guy even if he doesn't have power stuff or strikeout stuff a strike out is still something that makes him stick his chest out a little bit further man at first one away and another ball 20 and a foul ball two and one now swinging a foul straight back gets a piece there we'll do it again he hasn't gotten the result yet but he's got to feel pretty confident three foul BS in a row he's right on this pitcher misses inside really good take especially two strikes payoff pitch and a foul ball he stays [Music] alive eighth pitch of the ATB back coming up and that one lifted in the air center field Bell sags It On the Run third now we check out the Astros lineup someone who makes things happen for them in part with his legs Jeremy Peña and he's leading him in runs bed end this season which tells me this guy is able to slow things down when it seems like there's a little a little bit of pressure and he's looking at as an opportunity to do damage you know a lot of guys they see Runners on base and they get big they feel like all this pressure I've got to get these runs in but somehow he seems to settle in of these situations so watch out when he comes to the play the 01 that one is at the knees for a strike ball two next pitch is outside and the righty deals foul ball still one and two count two outs goes down looking so no runs no hits no errors and one left on on to the second inning now from minute made Park it's the Diamondbacks one and the Astros nothing new inning getting started Rand gr now Verlander 41 years old a former first round back in 2004 Verlander back to work and that one wrapped foul the one and a curve misses outside Carl Dixon working the plate in this one you know we often hear and talk about umpires being a pitcher umpire but Bo Dixon maybe a little bit more hitter friendly than most he's kind of tight on the corners so we'll see if that comes into play at all in this one that misses that's ball two this guy at the dish excels in two strike counts got to be careful with them out there on the sharp grounder that's through for a base hit Rand gritch with his first major league hit and this is a moment I'm sure he'll never forget congrats yeah great moment for him and his family a guy works so hard and has to wait so long for this to happen and when it does can kind of be overwhelming you still have to stay locked in on the game but it's great when you could take a minute to appreciate what you've done and how hard you've worked to get here hey Suarez up to the plate now there's the [Applause] strike nobody out runner at first and strike two the change right there just pulled the [Applause] string the pitch goes down swinging for the stri couldn't hit the fast at the knees Jake McCarthy stands in now for the diamonds third playing on the edge of the grass looking for the sack and immediately pumps in a strike to the left-handed hitter the pitch hard grounder into the outfield for a n they get it in quickly so first and second now one out Jake McCarthy with his first major league hit and this is a moment I'm sure he'll never forget congrats yeah great moment for him and his family a guy works so hard and has to wait so long for this to happen and when it does can kind of be overwhelming you still have to stay locked in on the game but it's great when you can take a minute to appreciate what you've done and how hard you worked to get here so one out with two a board here's the second basan Kevin Newman f for a [Applause] strike kicks fires that one the other way and it stays fa headed for the plate he scores and they lead by two so he gets two Milestones with that hit his first big Le knock and he drives in his first run as well yeah you love to get both of those out of the way with just one swing of the bat and it makes the special moment even more special it's not just an individual accomplishment when you're also driving in a run for your team that's an it bad he's never going to forget Adrien del Castillo digs in now swing and a miss as he was out front one's the count [Music] two on one out swing in a miss and that's strike two pitch right here he's going to try to make a pitch it's going to produ a strike [Applause] ground to Second there's one their dou Play Already this one ends the second inning but the RBI single pushes across a run it's now a two nothing ball game you're watching Major League Baseball exclusively on the show back here in Houston and here's the first baseman number 28 and he deals that misses the Zone ball one right field down the line and that one slices down that hit pretty hard and had home thech on you exe it just a longri finish him off into Center on his way over and there's one away Jeremy Peña up next for the Astros Chris his skill set straight out of the mid 80s good contact not much power and he could run he always uses the wheels to his Advantage his biggest challenge in this day and age is to not get caught up trying to hit home runs because so many people are way out front for strike two he just has to understand that his skill set is unique and he's very valuable for any ball Club if he does that he'll play a long time in this league one down base is empty swing and a miss for the strike out couldn't catch up to the heater well that seem to be over as soon as it started three pitch strike out you got to be better at the right there at least to foul at it B here's Ben gam there's the strike good eye in that spot [Music] the 1-1 swung on popped up on the infield Newman under it makes the grab and that's the inning no runs no hits no errors we played to full it's the Diamondbacks two and the Astros nothing on to the third inning here's the Diamond Backs lead off hitter peraldo Pomo as he turns on the rubber here with that good live arm deliver that's off the mark and that's ball [Music] one the short stop takes the ball looks like he's being a little cautious with him in this at bat after doubling the first time up doesn't want to make another [Music] mistake right Ander kicks deals that one spoiled and they count now two and one and here it comes swing and a base hit man aard on the lead off single wasting no time he's two for two now on the night and just a triple and home run away from the cycle seriously we're starting with this already Corbin Carol stands in now for the Diamondbacks oh he doesn't get the call and that's ball one ptoo aboard here at first with nobody out over to First and he saved and the pitch and that's downed away nasty back door slider there's really you can do with that if you swing at it so that's a good take by him and another ball there's the automatic 31 is on the way and it's Ball Four he missed down low now he's got two Runners after that get out of in a hry in situ so he's to get back the strike zone and now the switch hitting first baseman Josh Bell and there's one thing on his mind this that hit at the big league level inside just missed the pitch and there's a foul ball here's a one-1 and that gets the inside first [Applause] a and a one two and another ball roll to short possible two ball to Second there's one plenty of time at first that's a double play got what he was looking for on the right there bus pretty Tex ex between and second to turn that into two outs Christian Walker stands in now for the Diamondbacks for one with a fly out in the air right field haywards it in to end the inning one left for Arizona they're up two nothing back here at m m park set for the bottom of the third and stepping in for the Astros CH MCC M the pitch that's in there and it's first strike right there for him he's going to have to do that consistently if he's going to give any link to Hiser there's a swing and a Dr this looks like extra bases and that's a lead off double Chaz mccor with his first major league hit and this is a moment I'm sure he'll never forget congrats yeah great moment for him and his family a guy works so hard and has to wait so long for this to happen and when it does can kind of be overwhelming boo you still have to stay locked in on the game but it's great when you can take a minute to just appreciate what you've done and how hard youve worked to get here here's Jason Hayward in there for a strike at the bottom of the zone next pitch is outside SS and misses struck him out really nice job working both sides of the for that strike stting back again and that set him for that last pitch on the outside part of the plate that he just swung right through pretty smooth sequence right there here's the former MVP Jose Altuve let off the bottom of the First with a walk of the zone and it's called a strike Altuve has a lot of history with the Astros in fact he's played so many seasons in Houston that he's the only player to be named an Allstar in both leagues while playing for the same team you know Bo altu goes back all the way to those Astros days in the NL Central before they move to the West righty delivers foul back arway and that's out of play one out and a runner at second swings through that one it's a strikeout so backto back strikeouts now and they still haven't managed to do anything with the lead off dou you just don't want to get here a good to get after that lead dou as you mention and just got to execute your pitches and it's a nonissue here's Jordan Alvarez tapped at the plate but it's a foul ball the stros down by a pair here in the last half of the third ground ball Walker he takes it himself to the bag and that'll do it so the Astros leave one and they're down to nothing and welcome back to the ball start of the fourth and now the DH Rand [Music] gritch the right hander back to work and a good eye there you know these Dbacks showing great discipline at the plate and patience definitely seems to be the name of their game in this one they're doing a good job of working the pitch count and they've been able to push a couple of runs across the score as well kicks and fires that's the slider in there for a strike still relatively early but with air of runs already on the board the ripple effect of that high pitch count might set him up to do more damage later in this game and the righty deals fights that one away still one and two the wine of the pitch goes down looking for the strikeout called strike three and a fast up in the zone now AIO Suarez up to hit now he was a strikeout victim his first time in there and it's O and one and one and that's [Music] outside swinging a Miss it's a ball in two strikes man that was pretty gross right there that one not close and the count is even two and two base is empty one away top half of inning number four and down on strikes two away now up next for Arizona Jake McCarthy he's already singled in this game that one lifted to left Alvarez in position and that is that and we're back bot at the plate is the Astros catcher Yer Diaz the right hander back to work pitch misses one and0 well these Astros as this game on have to be more disciplined at the play they're chasing a lot of pitches outside the Z and those chases are turning into a bun ofs can they turn that around and stay within the Zone we'll see but I think they have to bounce to the left side and it goes just foul and the pitch that one catches the zone that strike two pitching well but going through this middle of the order second time through we'll see what kind of adjustments are being made still two and two after the foul the wi to the pitch the punch out there and that's the first out yeah that's a tough pitch to stay on you don't want to get beat inside that by the cat now it's Alex bregman his first at bat was a strike out that to right he's got it and there's two away number 2 and now the first baseman 0 for one with a fly out to Center that's in there strike one the Astros trailing by two we're here in the bottom of the fourth that's off the mark and the count is one and one two down do a so a foul ball makes it one and two and a curve is down and in two outs swings through that and it's a strike out and it's a three up three down inning so they make short work of them there on to the top of the fifth we go it's the Diamond Backs two and the Astros nothing back here in Houston top five John shabi with Chris Singleton and leading it off Kevin Newman berlander back to work this to third a dive nice to First nicely done for the out B have to be so quick with their firstep reactions Hot Shots like that that's why they call Dipa St on his toes pitch really nice job to get back up set him and make a throw across the diamond next to hit Adrien Del Cas not close with that one ball one the offense needs to start showing some against this starter he's doing his thing out there they're going to have to push back at some point and make him work a little bit harder the one popped up and there's two down number two so back to the top of the Arizona lineup next up for the Diamond Back haraldo Pomo and a curb misses outside two down DOL highfly ball out to center field McCormack makes the grab and that'll do it we head to the bottom of the fth here's the short stop at the play Jeremy pñ line of the pitch the short stop takes the ball well these Astros do a great job boo of just waiting for the right pitch come their way and I'm seeing very Pati bats out of starter leash has to be getting tighter with his pitch count where it is but so far he's been really effective in this one next offering is in for a strike you know sometimes it just takes getting to theall in order to be able to score runs and that might be the case today on the ground right side slings the first and the lead off hitter retired in the fifth well he's doing a nice keeping the B out of the the def behind with another good ex and next is the Des hitter Ben gam for one so far it's even up a good down in a row he just wants to get thease and delivered as quickly as possible keep the momentum going swing a it's one and two one down base is empty here's a swing and a drive left field and he knew it his first home of the year and they're on the bo it's 21 that could be one of those swings that really help Spar this [Music] [Applause] offense that's the exact ofit the ball where it's pitched taking that outside and ding way out of the ball you that approach Chaz mccor up next for the Astros next offering popped in the air right field Carol it's the grab for the second out Jason Hayward up next for the Astros right through there for a strike the D backs up by a run last half of inning number five and it's fou away and the pitch misses outside and that is ball one well this is a good time to step out of the box take a deep breath reset couple of change UPS probably another one here the pitch got him that's a strike out Astros claw back a bit on this solo Homer and it's now a 2-1 ball game back after this on the show back here in Houston and now here's a speed threat outfielder Corbin Carol the W to kick the pitch now a drag B Third Base side and he can't come up with it safe at first no play we'll see how they score this doesn't anyone when he gets Base by dropping down I mean this is just the latest exle of himing his speed to his advantage and showing off hiss with the B that was very nice J Bell at the plate now ball one no strikes this is a great Dynamic right here Speedy runner at first thinking about second catcher with the pop time that leaves Jaws on the floor this might get interesting Bo that one ripped but foul Verlander move to First and he's back in easily with a oneway lead right there all he's trying to do is get a look at the pitcher move had no intent of stealing that pitch down the middle for a strike and it's one and [Applause] two and another ball at the belt FES dou playall to Second Altuve sends it to first now one gone and the top of the six here's the clean up for the diamonds Christian Walker swings over the top of that AIT we haven't seen in a while it's going be tough on the HS if he can mix that in whenever he wants [Applause] one run game one out one [Music] on2 and the swing in the two down gr stands in now for the diamonds one for two for a strike man I mean nice job just presenting it to be better than it actually was and one the top of the Z for a strike like is as it begin situ you have no idea what the next pitch is going to be you just got to hope that you can make Conta the swing and a miss and that is that so one hit is all they get top of the order do up in the home half of the six the Diamond Backs two and the Astros one back here at M Park bottom of the sixth inning and now Jose Al here comes a pitch in there at the knees and that is strike one oh you can throw that big curve on the inside part of the pl very pitch for the to get on you have a lot of success if you pitch in that location on the ground to the right side Fair ball Jose Altuve with his first major league hit and this is I'm sure he'll never forget congrats yeah great moment for him and his family a guy works so hard and has to wait so long for this to happen and when it does it kind of be overwhelming you still have to stay locked in on the game but it's great when you can take a minute to just appreciate what you've done and how hard you work to get here no outs runner at first yon Alvarez up next for the Astros and that one fouled off with the tying run on at first here in the bottom of the six that's pitches downstairs [Applause] righty to

at the corners here one away here's Alex bregman one there at the looking to the in the in this theing dou play B for a strike strike on the outside edge I think ultimately you want to tie him up get the ball in on the pl so that he can't get the barrel to it and hit it to the Outfield Off the Mark there two balls two strikes lay off that pitch down and the rander deals that ball is foul and the pressure is building right hander kick deals and that's the Inside Edge Full Count number 28 up next for the Astros altu at third Diaz over first with one away that was the emergency hack right there

debut and a moment he will never forget better believe that it's always so special the first time you get into a big league ball game I did it as a position player but for him as a pitcher sure

get as he right so the tying run at second fast B for a strike two now very on the here in the one out probably off toer for the nth with at least a two lead and the pitch stays the [Applause] line big spot two out both the tying and goad runs are aard next pitch misses and a count one and two High Fly ball out towards left field way back there it's got a chance one runs in and it BS off the out scoreb into score from first they lead it in the eight how about that clears the basis you so runner at second two down aeno Suarez stands in now for the Diamondbacks 0 for three with two strikeouts and a fly out to the left side but it is well fouled and now the one inside just missed runner at second two now [Applause] strike in the air left field Alvarez in position he's got it and and the inning but three runs come across in the inning all on this three-run double it's now a 54 ball game Major League Baseball is on the show back now new pitcher on the M as we roll into the bottom of the eth Kevin GLE and this is the best way to make your major league debut no one on base yeah you're already going to be a little nervous out there so I think it's a nice job by the skipper to get him in here without any added pressure traffic on the basis now it's alexman here comes a pitch turned on but that's foul down the third Baseline looking to get the tying on base swing and a pop up McCarthy treding to get there he's got it and there's one down such a confidence boost for a relever to come into the ball game and get the first he faces just makes everything slow down a little bit and then from there can really settle in number 28 can't hold up and that's a strike the Diamond Backs with some movement in the pen Justin Martinez up and throwing for manager to L swings through that one say that stayed in the for a long time no chance of even fouling It Off trying to hold a one-run lead here the bottom half of the eighth inning fights that one away and the count remains o and two yeah with two strikes here you really want to miss outside the Zone with that breaking ball on the ground to First and he takes it himself for the out that's why you hug the lines on the corners theall game like this position so next up for Houston Jeremy Peña feels like it's less common today that you see a guy like this the speed component the contact component but lack of power swinging a foul over the screen and back out of play two down on out to short fires to first on the Run they get the out and that'll do it Astros go down one two three they Trail it 54 we're back the top of the n and there's a new pitch on the M from Valdez and he's got a big time breaking ball to contend with going to have to pick it up early if they're going to have any chance well one game Jake McCarthy stands in now for the diamonds Jak McCarthy as he turns on the Rubber and with that good live arm delivers just missed movement in the bullpen ronell Blanco preparing to come on if needed Scott also [Music] throwing and the pitch hey and a foul ball not even close there and it's two and two just misses without one caught a break right there pretty good pitch on the outside corner back to work 32 now and a swing in a miss and a strike out for the first out here in the n I really like the ability toce back right there after Notting hea have didn't let it his Focus he came back another good pitch to get him swinging Newman stands in now and watches strike one one run game here in the top of the nth there's strike now he may have not liked either of those first two pitches or agreed with the calls but at point he's going to have toar down and be ready to hit close to the Zone here's the O2 Now One Missed down to the dirt swing and a miss up with it fires the first first but no chance to recover he'll reach after the strike out cat you don't see it very often but every once in a while a guy strikes out and still somehow ends up safe on First and when it happens you kind of scratch your head but I guess sometimes a pitch is so nasty it makes everyone Miss now they're going to have to get more than three outs in this inning one gone runner at first and here's the catcher Adrien del Castillo [Music] the pitch and that's outside well that pitch not even close a two count now he can't be over aggressive he's got to make sure that pitch is right on a t [Music] for wouldn't chase that time crowd locked in right now one run game here in the n in there at the knees and that one hit to first and he grabs it foul [Music] BS that off to the left and will do it again step off throw to first and he's back safely Newman stands at first with one out right back to the m could be an easy twoed second and still another double play their fourth tonight inning over one error in the inning but nothing more bottom part of the order 789 do up in inning number n it's the Diamondbacks five and the Astros four back now and on the the closer Justin Martinez a chance his save of the year3 now here's the astr Ben G he's already home here in this one what are you looking to do in these spots you're down a run you're leading off the Inn he's not a power hitter a guy that's looking to tie it up with one swing so he's going to take and get into this at bat and try to get deep into theat ultimately however he can get to first base next offering is in for a strike believe this is a real tough place for visiting teams to come in and out gam forn next offering is down low and he hits a ground ball right side steps on first for the out you want to be a great defense you have to deliver consistently doesn't highlight real plays you make if you can't EXE the small just like we saw he's two outs away CH MCC up next for the Astros look out and hit that definitely gives some right here base so we'll see if they can way to bring him around now here is Jason Hayward and there's no doubt that they'll feed off the energy from this prow right I mean yeah I'd say the intensity level has gone up a few notches for [Applause] sure that one finds the Zone going one Bas hit center field lead Runner and they'll have Runners at the corners after a one out single just a right there big swing this team really needed it that's about asex as it gets got his out of the early stay anded up out man that was like he was in the cage really important coming up so a change being made at first base on the pinch run Jake Myers Jose Altuve up next for the Astros first pitch doesn't find the Zone well comfortable or not these are the situations Clos they seem to live for you get into some hot water Jam tough spot whatever you want to call it but this is where they earn their keep two on one out now one inside two and Chris with that distraction and the Speedy guy at first he's in a favorable hitter count well if nothing else I mean this is a great spot for a hitter to be in is in for a strike line dri brings it in run tanks for home the relay and [Music] [Applause] he's a little bit by the time that out catches it but a good job that from third yon Alvarez up next for the [Applause] Astros Martinez throws [Applause] over that pitch gets the corner it's and one action in theen down there Brandon up and throwing for manager toy l this guy's got good power with one swing he can win it for him foul back ourway and that's out of play and he deals fights it off you'll see another and look out that man he's in this he's glad got hit with an off spe pitch there instead of a fast hurt a lot more if it had velocity and stepping in for the Astros Yer Diaz it's outside and that's ball one winning run and scored position with two away next offering is in for a strike so many hard throwing relever in the game these days you think that made the ad I don't know if you ever get it just puming gas out of the hard to play catch that's outside two and one right through there for a strike tap dances out of the way that one foul and it remains a Full Count trying to send this Extra Innings gets a piece and stays alive kicks and fires swinging a foul ball at the plate they'll do it again keeps the going with a foul two and that'll load the bases it wasn't easy but he earned that walk after a long at when you go that deep a the usually comes out on top two full so here's the astr clean alexman there's up high long winning run at third two down and the next pitch is way outside at the belt and fires that one finds the Zone one and two oneall two and another ball no we used to say if you're scared get a dog throw the fast man if you're scared get a dog man just get a dog [Music] out to short pero on to first that's the third out and we're headed to extras so they can't come up with the winning run and that means we'll have to go a little longer here tonight to find a winner we're all tied up 55 now into the ball game on defense Jake Myers he takes over and right also into the ball G Macio du he'll be out left field and now the haraldo the perhaps to the right side Valdez back to work and that's a strike well it's kind of deflating you blow that lead in the bottom of the ninth so here's a new opportunity hit the reset button try to get some more runs and then close it out in the bottom half of this one drive and a base hit clearly seeing the ball very well line D [Applause] ripped Corbin Carroll getting ready to hit infield looks like they're expecting a with with speed at the plate Zack but towards third off balance feed there's one and that's all they'll get play right there didn't really have enough time to set his feet and make a strong accurate throw had to rush it but he got it off and he got it there in time to get that out at second base two onone out and now it's going to be Josh Bell right through there for a strike he might want to steal second in this spot but he's dealing with a catcher that has of the pop times in the game he needs to pick his spot very wisely two on one out F off foul and a foul ball he stays alive and a pitch line track to short and caugh that swing right there tells me he's seeing the ball pretty well I know it didn't produce a hit but he made Solid and that's all you're looking to do anytime you're at the pl Christian Walker stands in now for the diamond BS with pretty good speed over there at first base I think the pitch got to slow everything down hold the ball a little bit step off just try to break the and timing of a potential baseer just missed snap throw to first and he's back in standing the pitch this one smacked out to left Center see you later that one felt good his first Homer of the year and the DS jump out in front it's 85 you're not going to be able to wipe the smile off his face for a while boo he just changed the game [Applause] anytime you have a pitch down the middle of the the percentages go up for the to do damage even if it's a pretty good Sinker like that one nice piece of hitting there at the Astros go to the pen and here comes Taylor Scott Prett tight so they're lookity pitches out of right here got to do his best to keep the score right where it is so two down now it's the DH Randle gritch grit started after it tried to hold up now a look to First no swing the wi of the pitch foul ball Chris you look at it these are the spots where guys can come on Pitch well instill some confidence in the manager and all of a sudden they're pitching higher leverage spots to the postseason well in this final month I mean this is an audition period for the call UPS well got to pause on that thought as that'll do it for the inning so they get three runs on two hits including the Homer no one left last chance to even things up we head to the bottom of inning number 10 it's the Diamondbacks eight and the Astros 5 back here in extras and a new pitcher on the m in the bottom half of the inning Joe manip this is his first appearance of the season now the first baseman as the Lefty gets to work pitch misses there and that is ball one kicks Andel swinging a foul straight back and it's second to the right side takes it and they get the lead off man in the good fade and sinking action of that CH R Jeremy and next to hit for Houston Jeremy Peña the goal is to give your team made a chance to score from third there's a few ways he can get it done but his best chance is to drive in the air that's hard hit in the line Carol pulls that one down run tagging from third the throws [Applause] outly it to drop astr to last out and now the DH Ben G that's ripped base hit Joey gets on base and keeps it going [Music] [Music] [Music] continues I kept him in the yard that time but all he's doing now is passing the Baton and everything seems to get started around this guy MCC up next for the Astros and that's downstairs and outside AC cross in the frame so far here in Extra Innings hard hit left side that's the ball game I can think of pretti ways to get your first win on the in the majors they'll have some work to do after the blown save but a win is a win congrats to him on this career Milestone final score of 8 to6 in this one for Chris Singleton and our entire outstanding crew here at MLB the
