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

Has the heart and hustle award for Jose ramirez he'll be receiving very soon. Yeah, that is a fantastic award to win. There are plenty out there to win. This is definitely one of the cool ones for sure. Obviously, it shows how much passion dedication grit he has towards this. And again, he's the leader of this team, not only offensively defensively, but in the hearts of this clubhouse as well. Lively is ready to making his 23rd start. He's pitched very well at home. He's six and two. Marco leading it off for the Texas Rangers zero for his last 12, 2 pitches in a base knock and the Rangers are rolling here in the top of the first Seeger batting at 273. Leads the club in home runs with 28. That's seventh in the league swing and a Miss got him of the curveball. So Ben lively strikes out Corey Seager and there are two outs for garcia here in the first half of the first inning. Lively work 32 and that one loved by Roo, but he doesn't have a play and he missed outside ball four. They're loaded up josh Young will get a shot with the bases full here in the top half of the first inning of a scoreless game. It's going to be a tough play and Ramirez unable to field it cleanly. Simon comes home to the Rangers strike first here in the top of the first inning. No RB I jose Ramirez charged with his eighth error and that couldn't have come at a worse time because it keeps the ending going and he hits a ground ball wide of third to his left ramirez gloves goes to second gets the force inning is over. It's an unearned run. It's also a 33 pitch inning for Ben Live right hander John making his first start since he spent time on the injured list that will bring up and Jimenez he in the two hole tonight as manager Steven just trying to shake it up a little bit bouncer to first. It got by Lowe and couldn't get there to close the gap. The ball went right under the glove and he is charged with an error and Jimenez is on with one out here. Rangers leading one and jose ramirez coming up, there's a drive to right center and it sinks in front of Ramirez on at first two strike base hits and josh Naylor gets the bat with the runners at the corners. One down in the 1st 1 to 0. Rangers swung on a high chopper to second game will be tied. Naylor picks up his nine RB I and each team has exchanged an unearned run here in the first inning and we've got a 11 ball game pitch to Brennan swung on grounded to first Nate Lowe got it and that ends the first inning but an unearned run for Cleveland on a hit and an error , they leave one and after one complete, it's a 11 tie. Carson Kelly, we saw him a bunch this year in Detroit traded to Texas. He laid off the 2nd 11 game swing and a little looping fly ball to shallow center coming hard sliding grab by shallow center man. Got a good break and Then went into a slide and made the catch on Kelly for out. Number one, center field man is going to make the catch on everything, three fly ball outs to center. That's what happens here in the top of the second inning for lively Noel. He's the only right handed bat in the lineup against the right. John Gray, that's a fair ball and a diving stop by Young. What a play but John Kenzie beats it out for an infield single. Noel ends up at second one down for catcher Bo Na fastball by Naylor, a big strikeout for Gray it by at 96 and he walked him and so Cleveland has two on with two outing. You can imagine. John Gray is furious with himself. He the number nine hitter. Now you have to face Stephen Kwan again. The 02 deep right center field that's in the alley that will go to the wall. It's a two out two run double for stephen Kwan and the Guardians lead it 3 to 1. And Stephen Kwan who was mired in a two for 30 skid gets a mammoth two run double. So it's 3 to 1 now in favor of Cleveland and that brings up and Jimenez reached on the error to Lowe and scored an unearned run back in the first. That's going to bloop to shallow center field and around third will score without a throw a three run second and a 4 to 1 Guardians lead. That's how you do it. Is that how hard you hit him and once you get that first one, it loosens everybody. He takes outside ball four second walk by Gray. Here's will grounded out his first time. Renan shoots it down the third base line. It's fair. Naylor hits second on his way to third. Brennan digging for two. It's bobbled momentarily by Lankford but the Guardians have runners at 2nd and 3rd with nobody out here in the third. He may get one more batter only because it's a righty 2nd and 3rd with nobody out. Jens Noel the hitter baby high and deep way out of here. Big Christmas with a three run homer, blows it open and the Guardian's lead is 7 to 1. We call him Big Christmas John Green calling him the Grinch that's going to end his night and the Rangers now go to their bullpen, but it may be too late. Walter Pennington on the pitch 32 up and away ball four and the inning continues. So Ros, that brings up stephen batting for a third time in the third inning gets by. Kelly and headed to third. Now is Roch, he'll get there without a throw. I think Kelly thought maybe that the ball was fouled off by and it's going to be called a, not a wild pitch but a passed ball on Kelly. And that enabled Roch to go from first to third payoff pitch outside ball four got away from Kelly again. Broch scores 8 to 1. Cleveland on a two out walk and another pass ball on Carson Kelly who's had two pass balls in the last two minutes. When's the last time you saw that in a major league game? Oh, there you go. The first. He had to really work his way through it and held it to just one run and you get 11 a nine and now he's got a 10 pitch inning. Here's Langford. He grounded to third his first time with the bases full and he lines one down the left field line here, it lands right on the chalk for a hit and in at second with a stand up double is Wyatt Langford. He has a double here in the fourth inning with two outs and Carson Kelly coming to the plate got in on him and popped it up on the infield. They want to swing pitch side retired another good inning for Ben lively John Kensey Noel steps in and big Christmas three for three and John Kensey Noel is in with a stand up double. He'll be shooting for the cycle. He needs the triple and his next couple of at bat Danielsen 1 to 2 and it's swung on, bounced near the middle on through a base hit into right center. Noel powering around third. Here's the throw to the plate. He slides in at first safely and the Guardians had another run. It's now 9 to 1 on the RB I base hit by Sne be lively after tough first inning has been locked in their strike three called on the outside corner, Smith out looking at a sinker second strikeout one down in the sixth that will bring up a garcia strike three called Adolis garcia took a fastball third strike out for lively where this club would be without Ben. Lively is kind of scary to think about. He scored for his 11th win of the season, which will put him among the league leaders in that category. Dropping do Jimenez gloves picks throws ending over and another 13 pitching for Ben, he has been special ramirez one for three with a single back in the first inning swing and pounded high deep to right. This ball go number 33 for Jose 10 to 1. Cleveland. Jose ramirez. Best year home run wise was 39. Now he's got 33. Here's josh Naylor zero for two with a walk. He's using the bat. Like now he's got the hand with a knob down there right now. I'm saying, I've never seen him use that picking up other people's back who's got a hit for them. Give me one of yours to right for, get about it. And Josh Naylor with home run number 28 that's how you end an zero for 22 skid. Well, I guarantee is going to be missing that bat if that's his Naylor just put his number on it. Ben lively now has set down eight in a row. Bouncer up the middle and Roko won't get there. It's by him and out into center. He's the only ranger that seems to have a book on lively. Here's catcher Carson Kelly, a swing and a miss struck him out with the hanging curve. That's four straight outs for lively. Two down for Leoti Tamari pitch 105 for lively and he serves one to left Quan dives. Can't get it. Quan fumbling around and Langford's going to dash home and he scores. Looks like the tar got in the way of Steven Quan. Great effort by Quan diving. That'll be it for Ben. Lively and he is going to get a thunder salvation when he comes to that third base dugout. So Leoti taveras at second after the RB I double Rangers trail 11 to 22 men are out in the inning. Simeon one for seven lifetime against Barlow who this year is three and three with two saves and a 407, a and it drops, unable to get there to scores. And Marcus Simon with his second hit of the ninth, an RB I single that will close the book on Ben lively as he ends up going six and two thirds. He gave up three runs to earn allowed five hits struck out four and walked one now an 11 to 3 ball game, a rare route for Cleveland here over the last month and man will they soak it up and enjoy Naylor with a drive deep right center. That one is gone. Taylor joins his big brother in the home run trap four home runs for the Guardians and Cleveland's now on top 12 to 3, the pitch swung on line drive to left but Langford jumps a tough as called ricochets off and goes all the way to the wall and that should be a double for Thomas. Here's Will Brennan one for four with a double, the 20 a swing and a line drive. There's another base hit that another RB I cut off from the gap by Jankowski throw to second slide by Brennan out at second scoring is Thomas 13 to 3 Cleveland his first RB. I mean eight different Guardians have knocked in a run. Rangers trailing 13 to 3 line shot in the center back to back hits for Texas with runners at 1st and 2nd and nobody out. The Rangers are down by 10 but threatening here in the night, there's a swing by Kelly in a line drive base hit down the left field line rolls all the way to the corner. An RB I double for Kelly. It's 13 to 4. Cleveland. Once again, the Rangers are showing some late inning fight tonight in the batter two for four, couple of singles and RBI and Marcus hits ground ball to second. That will score a run. It's 13 to 5 and Simeon picks up his second RB I of the night is 63rd of the year and here is travis Jankowski with two outs in the night. Swinging a liner to left Schneeman makes the catch bogey and the Guardians get a much needed route and blast the Texas Rangers 13 to 5.
