Oakland Athletics vs. Detroit Tigers (09/07/2024) Full GAME Highlights TODAY |MLB Season 2024

Morales behind the plate last night some tough calls I think probably both ways late in the ball game see Gucci own time's on me letting Riley green get settled in that shinard taken care of Runner going a little slip from Ian but the pitch was in the dirt and mccan had no play at second a stolen base for Andy iban and now Riley green immediately has a runner in scoring position and Ian was going first move very quickly see Mack just turned the glove over he knows he's going to have to body up here not a pitch he was going to be able to throw on Riley green a four hit night last night his second four hit game this year the allstar of 2024 is batting 260 with 20 long balls and 60 runs batted in oh A's cap Detroit Jersey well if that man was at the Ballpark last night I'm sure he was conflicted well and it's totally fine if today he's going to choose to eat his feelings cuz I would totally understand but look at the Hat he might be a happy one fouled off well it's Chris Gucci on behind the plate this afternoon take a look at some of the Tendencies and this is pretty cool if not an MLB umpire he'd like to be a wine maker on a Woodfire Pizza place I'm in good I'll take the margarita the pizza he'll let the Zone breathe a bit towards the bottom [Music] really things start to get a little crispy on the edges though just just a little crispy not too well done out there on the edges not undercooked [Music] already got great plays getting made here onew to Green did he go around no he did not count will even up at two and two good catch by a fan here just a moment ago well it's Brennan hanfy looks like he's going to be the opener for today's ball game got a left-hander already starting to work down in the bullpen for the Tigers really it was some confusion last night it seemed like possibly brt herder would have been the man to start the game but instead going to use an opener then bring the Lefty in presumably in the second inning one and two to Butler he'll take two balls and two strikes Lawrence didn't do too much against Terk scoble however did have a few hits against him well I think if you're talking about left on left against the sa Young Award hopeful and you're able to not only survive the it bats but find your way on base somehow someway I'm going to call that a w here's a look at Tiger Skipper AJ hinch forth season at the helm 22 and a big swing and miss one away well the Tigers defense today looks like this green in left Meadows in Center Veer in right Ian and mckinstry on the left side of the infield Keith and Tolson on the right side Dylan dingler behind the plate for Brennan hany now Brent Rooker also had a three hit performance last night and on the first pitch he sees goes inside out and muscles one into right field for a one out hit well Rooks saw fast ball early this thing's got a little life to it starts to chase him in just a bit but Rook once again just able to as you said Chris stay inside of it cut the baseball in half if you can start to see it running in like that I mean it feels like there's different swings that you're starting to add to the Rolodex of Brent Rooker as he now extends that hit streak to 11 games getting over 450 during that run new career high as well now it's last night's Hero set Brown swinging and flying it to left glasses gleaming green makes the catch well think about getting a phone call somewhere around the 11th inning hey you ready to hit yeah yeah I am well how about the 13th inning cuz that's what he came up for his second at bat remember it was the first at bat that would keep the game going big home run but it was the walk-off knock at the end of it and made brownie the hero after that fly ball Chris looks like we're going to have ourselves a pitching change so with two outs in the bottom of the first AJ hinch has made a change and when it's time for a change think Speedy Oil Change and Auto Service your trusted oil change tuneup and break [Music] experts ground ball up the middle Palo Smothers flips it out of the glove re a bare head in time the double play of the year how can you not smile about that one it's a terrific play all the way around wasn't sure he's going to get to it the flip barehanded and then aable to get the throw off to finish the double play yeah likes it and that'll bring up Rizzo sitting on 299 career home runs highfly ball deep Right Center that ball is G see you home run number 300 for Anthony Rizzo a two-run shot and the Yankees lead 15 to5 160 first player in big league history to hit that number 300 we've still got two more Sundays left this season join us for another alumni Sunday with Eric Burns Adam Rosales and Dallas Braden they will be signing autographs starting at 11:35 a.m. in the Eastside Club tomorrow game ticket is required for entry so get your tickets at athletics.com SL alumni Sundays I hear Dallas Braden is a big ticket signing option tomorrow do you know a Dallas Braden I know I've heard heard I've seen him around kicking around here you I check an ID though sometimes the Red Bull may be watching a bullpen or two well Han's job is done today two thirds of an inning and now it's brt herder against the Lefty and JJ blade who offers it an inside pitch and catches a part of his bat now o and one well it was anife that got work last night in the ball game as well is the one who started it and he hands the ball to the left-hander brand herder well you see the lineup for Mark Kat's Club mhm yeah Butler a lefty Brown a lefty blade a lefty gray a lefty and mccan a lefty I think that there was some expectation for hanify but now a little bit of gamesmanship early from AJ hinch but what is the strategy here I know they the Tigers used a lot of arm so did the A's why go with two outs in the bottom of the first two your first reliever well I think it's just about knowing what you have ahead of you and if you've got guys in brown blade and gray bouncing ball to First and Tolson right there steps on the B that will retire the side two pitchers feature for the tigers at the bottom of the first inning they post a zero 1-1 to Colt Keith who takes a strike what's interesting about this Tigers lineup is they're prepared for lefties but they have a few Homer and seven runs batted in against the southpaws it's a bit of reverse split action for Colt Keith leex two two he will strike out against baso last night and he will take strike one for was almost a heartbreaking finish now a line drive caught by [Applause] [Music] gray Zack mckinstry a two hit night last night and a line drive and it's caught by Nick two two he struck him out there's the change up a few days removed between the Minnesota Twins and the Chicago White Socks it's Tristan gray taking ball number one well it wasn't just so did Nick Allen everybody served a big role formulating that [Music] identity three and0 to Gray and it's outside a four pitch walk 13 inning contest 6 hours and 32 minutes might as well have you looked oh I think this I'll pie myself we'll just we'll get this thing over how's that sound everybody okay with that during the pitch clock era one two Cameron goes fishing on a change [Music] up was so amazing about last night and another one again then finally Grant Holman was able to shut the door in the top slow roller to third ion quickly gets rid of it on the second over to first I know you're preferential to the far left these young tigers that has recently made his debut he'll pop that one and drop it into right dingler is taking a turnaround first Lawrence Butler spins and an off balance throw dingler that's about 65 mil an hour or so off the bat I mean just talk about perfect placement Seth Brown had no chance and with Lawrence Butler playing where he that sets up Parker Meadows who everybody knows over his last 30 Games had big two RBI double at one point at 5 to [Music] five I mean he used two hands off the fingertips that is tough have been both hands not just one hand oh and the look of disappointment behind him what do you mean the look The Sound of [Music] disappointment so it's Matt verling who's been the Tiger's best hitter during the day at 282 average when the sun's out he'll ground it to third it's bobbled by gray he'll step on the third base back the throw to first just a hair before he had it so a fielders choice in Andy ibz who singled and stole a base in the first is up with one out in the third no score so it's expected you see both of those men today and possibly not very many relievers other than that well it's going to it's going to be a battle I think between two clubs right now to see who can yeah great pitch two two and he just struck him out got behind the count then three straight swinging strikes by Ian with the gas up top this is another arm that is coming from tripa Las Vegas that has [Music] impressed Inside Out swing swept to left by Cameron is there to make the catch that'll end the top of the third inning late inning replacement last night he used as a pinch runner in the 10th and when Allen came up to that I think the Milwaukee merer would have appreciated Slow Rolling ground ball to short and mckinstry to First Kyle mccan from suani Georgia they played together mccan of course entered the pro ranks he'll chop it over to First easy enough for Tolson to [Music] quickly this Haze Club has a 237 average against against south paw as a team but as we've seen both sides that's something that we're seeing Butler gets it in the air to Right Center that's fading away from verling it dropped how did he get to that pitch well and that's what's special about Lawrence Butler this is 92 left on left starting to chase him inside cut the ball in half it's another to be able to do that keep it fair even on the pole side this one up that right center Gap so not something that's pulled down the line count looker gets in the air to right verling retreating and he has it and that will retire for five and six the middle of the tiger order all were retired in one way or another Justin Henry [Music] Malloy one of four T Jace Young that's spiked in the dirt mccan keeps it in front don't know if it was his chest protector two two wind up and Pitch popped up out goes gelof he calls off Butler pitches thrown for strikes we've seen a couple pitches Garner the swing and miss so for to settle into their approach which in in all honesty is a good thing because it's not the Tigers trying to he's attacking that's a great point that you bring up as well remember this is basso's first major conservative staying around the Zone posting zero after zero striking out Colt Keith twice the list little bigger break than that slider he got the first time around and you can see Keith that little hitch and able to hold on to it throw another K up there oh nerves besides just the regular nerves of making your major league start when you do have a situation like this well you just you want to do everything you can to help the [Music] club one two bounced foul so that's two drops today after the late night last night popped up long way to go for brown on the run a basket catch bobbled it a few times I was able but we all understand that somewhere along the way you start to put a little pressure on your stealth you find yourself tinkering and before your note you've gotten so far away from playing the game the way the last AG player to do that my boy Derek Barton Seth Brown down on strikes Coliseum if you can play a little Outfield you can play first base here Seth Brown making to look real that was a great catch so the next Lefty to come up JJ blade on a [Music] three JJ almost had a double last night but with a few RB himself in the later parts of the game had a double that brought home Nick Allen so that was a 10 out of 10 crush it you know he gives us all every single day and and that's why when you he gets frustrated and blade goes down swinging back to back CS for herder should also enjoy moments just like this because he has delivered time and time again that was an inning number 10 who again bring the game level at 6 to6 the A's eventually won 7 [Music] to6 we know this aze club is not a playoff team this year or likely not just this year but moving forward for what the culture and what to expect from these guys going into 2025 and Beyond and what I am going to tell you is that this Ace Club where they're there and so you start to see the picture 32 bouncing ball and threw for a two out base hit for Tristan gray there Cameron struck out swinging on a change up against herder and now he in the American League West considering the talent the A's have as well as other teams a Fly ball in left and Riley green fights the Sun and man oh man some errant efforts in the stands we got University of Pacific men's baseball team you took pictures you got him passes lawn and I know how important it is to maintain so I had to let him [Music] night long arduous day of work behind the plate last night you know consider the emotion that comes along with where the other hangs with you two two Chopper to third charging is gray loads up and throws to First this time they'll get dingler from ourselves and and I think on the other side of things you lose the third inning since then he has been [Music] fantastic and the basso reels in Meadows and then herder has gone the rest of the way he's have playing a lot of close games recently against team time periods right back up the middle it's off the glove of Keith and trickles into center field right back up the Middle look out Co Keith trying to make a difficult play here going to a backhand dive on a ball that's got some tough at first and nobody out well they'll check over see if they get any information from Nick Allen are they he's going to swing away gof going pitch inside throw down to second is late and with that throw coming up a little shallow that gof into second safely now Allen will show bu and laid down a beauty it will go foul too much spin foul little disappointment no problem still one one it is good to laid down a pretty one last night and he will swing away shooting it foul a ton and swept foul one two and he's fighting we remember that Nick Allen bit lecting for contact now he drives it to Right Center this is fading away from Meadows but he will make the catch on the run and gof will advance to third so a [Music] very M swinging for the fences [Music] Miss McAn this year that all year and that's hit on a hop that's beyond Colt Keith and into right fet the a open up the scoring and it'll go for a [Music] knock now they lead one- nothing in the bottom of the fifth and Lawrence Butler takes strike number one he had a double his last yeah Lawrence Butler's able to tuck one down that right field line he might be able to round the popped up foul ground in the sun who's going to get it dingler or I and you're throwing the glove out there just trying to swipe at it how about that now Brent Rooker one for two on the day a in the he'll take in one ball and no [Music] strikes Brent for his last 15 400 with six homers homers and 61 runs batted in now he'll pop it to right it'll hang up in the air for verling and that will retire the side there's only one more Friday home game left so don't miss grabbing four tickets and parking Friday Night tickets available at athletics.com [Music] Value against his former Georgia Tech teammate has been excellent thus far firing strike after strike h straight line drive over Zack gelof made yeah big curveball has been working today for basso this time get up [Music] G didn't look like he was in trouble at all the B pokes the batad out lifts it to left don't do much for you one way or the other you haven't seen that and the fact that he is through that fifth inning into the sixth now 76 pitches to prove that he is a guy in a viable two another chance for Daz Cameron and he will complete it regardless of his situation from the big leagues to this point has done a good job of figuring out how to compete through the guys who have been starting more [Music] recently so Marat getting creative basso drops in a strike well I think when you understand that and you know what's [Music] for Mark CR what you need right now are guys that are going to be now a three and two on Justin Henry Malloy who's flyed out and popped out do we have another catch railing well 3-2 payoff pitch and basso just struck out Justin Henry Malloy six scoreless innings for there's some hugs from the skipper to Brady Paso who I think considering the circumstances and just in general had an amazing performance Chopper to Second Keith Works quickly and throws to first I know it wasn't a high Punch Out type of outing where there was a bunch of swing and misses you know it's not a 10 strikeout performance but what it did do is allow gr who's reached base twice and a walk in his single swings on the first pitch a diving play by Keith gets to his feet and on three chances Colt Keith makes three good plays the a still stay up one nothing through six 2/3 of an inning of work for McFarland and this inning is his in the seventh hopefully he's figured those out now a line drive into center field and Colt Keith is aboard for and it's Tolson ground ball to third Tristan gray gets it on to set and it's caught by well looks like they're going to take a look at this through the hand and I think what you have to consider is of the ball from glove to hand on a quick turn like that yeah like the Casual fan would expect to see the glove squeeze Z yof was going to get the benefit of the doubt there Chris I can understand and I think that's a great challenge Zach gofs having explained to him right now is if you don't have the handle on it if you don't have a literally a hand on it or near it maybe you're just not going to get the benefit of the doubt did score a run and was walked twice one intentionally now two and 0 to him and the other catcher Dylan dingler is waiting on on Deck it's another close one Dallas yes it is K tries to bring that one into the Zone but no dice three balls and no strikes Ryan additon saying hey what is the true rolling there that one didn't go his way right but no harm yet the 3-1 is outside and the bases are now loaded dingler 0 for 12 against [Music] southpaws now was entering today's game before that double against basso Ball but it for some games of this home stand has been a strike consistently sometimes I would imagine it's tough to go from umpire to umpire when the consistent outside corner plus against righties has been given the entire hom stand then you have to reframe your work game of adjustments onew Line Drive foul heads up Pitch nope it was fouled can couldn't come up with it yeah dingler got just enough of it see where they decide to go bouncing ball to short Nick Allen to second gof to First and it's dug out by brown but dingler beats the rapid first the Tigers tie the game at one to one they do get an out and third Mar is going to keep it rolling yeah ball maybe not hit terribly hard tough to double up [Applause] look like they may have had time unfortunately to throw just offline a bit see it's a good hard slide there by Jake Rogers you think gof was thinking about that transfer that time around well there's a solid chance that he just wanted to make sure that he had a handle on it you get your out Marat going to make a call to the bull [Music] pin tied at one to one in the seventh with one out ground ball up the middle Pano SM flips it out of the glove re a behead in time the double play of the year how can you not smile about that one it's a terrific play all the way around wasn't sure he's going to get to it the flip barehanded and then aable to get the throw off to finish a double play yeah Bogen likes it well there's a swing in the Miss of the slider seven strikeouts in a row for Luis heel 14 strikeouts here at the stadium for the young right-hander there was 14 strikeouts for Luis Hill sets a franchise single game rookie record he passed L du's 13- 98 he's through six and Luis Hill walking off the mound to a standing ovation here in the Bronx this copyrighted telecast is presented by authority of the Oakland Athletics it may not be reproduced or retransmitted in any form and the accounts and descriptions of this game may not be disseminated without the express written consent of the Athletics Investment Group LLC on this date in 2019 2 days after the birth of his first child Chris Basset struck out 11 Detroit Tigers in six innings for his 10th win Chris Basset tied V blue for most strikeouts in a game by an athletic versus the tigers with 11 punch outs the A's had 19 strikeouts overall for what is still an A's record for the most in a nine ining [Music] game Michelle otan on for Mark K and the Athletics tight spot right now you you need a couple big [Music] outs Tolson over at third base kler over at [Music] first so kler speed as well as Meadows at the plate it's going to be tough to get a two ball unless it lands perfectly there's a swing in a Miss well michell's fast ball looked good last night it was the slider that he held on to a little bit too long that happened back in the seventh inning two out double by Riley green and a pair of wild pitches scored the tying run to make it two to2 in the seventh and then we all know what happened from the 10th inning on utter [Music] chaos back and forth good lead by kler he's going to stay put soft Fly ball to left Daz broke back he slides and makes the catch [Music] tagging is Tolson and he will score Daz made a nice catch but H had to recover after breaking back on the ball and now the Tiger have their first lead of the game well and that's the problem is initially it's two three steps back and now he has to close and in order to make the play lay out and that takes him out of position to be able to make a throw coming through the baseball at home that would keep Spencer Tolsen at third instead Tolsen able to tag up as the Tigers take a 2-1 lead aanas gets the second out at the top of the seventh though good block by mccan keeps kler honest at first well if this A's offense is anything they're a responding Club especially late in the season looks like Ricky Vasco starting to look on in the tiger [Music] Bullpen so Vasco didn't feature last night at all and there stretch inin as well in the bullpen so it's verling at 2 and0 against michell oan verling has a hit today he's one for three kler a break to Second and gof start to walk into these days with the pitch timer using it to their advantage you almost feel like you've gotten too good of a jump and he just walked verling so Andy ianes comes up with two on today in the two spot and is being pinch hit for with Jace Young coming up to the plate Jace Young over two and pinch hit opportunities he'll take High one batting glove on and one off and if I'm not mistaken his brother Josh doesn't wear batting gloves that's right brother Josh AKA Young Money Jace AKA youngest [Music] money a wave and a miss little slider that young just did not see out of the hand [Applause] one and two and a swing in a Miss otan Strikes Out Jace Young but the Tigers score two and take the behind the plate when it's time for a change think Speedy Oil Change in Auto Service your trusted oil change tuneup and break it on the ground first chance for kler completes the peg y ripping at the first pitch Dodgers organization and is landed with Detroit 33 appearances one and two with a 272 in the miners High Fly ball to right beerling fighting the Sun and he's able to find it make the cat the bullpen ground ball to Keith at second gathers and throws to First and that will retire the side in order two to one the Tigers lead through seven innings here on Saturday Mark Kat considering how many Bullpen arms were used last night 3 four and five a tough part of the tiger order comes up as well starts with Riley green and it's outside there's a swing in a miss when it's time for a CH first time he's coming out of the bullpen for the A's since July the 19th there's a strike now two and two was in the 10th was a hit of consequence now [Music] BAU when it's nothing he's three and two it's off the screening and into this that's why I said it's you know could be a matter of hey instead of get up you're going to get into the ball game and that'll be the work that'll be your Bullpen round ball and Seth Brown gets it beo covers and AJ Hench one it started before the first pitch ly sends a drive to left center field BL is going to play it off the wall and get it in quickly but Justin Henry Malloy sent it a long way that's outside one ball in no strikes fou back a to come up in the bottom of the that's a high fly Ball Deep to right if it's fair it's gone and it is foul we saw that last night one and two to Colt Keith and he strikes him out Keith oh for three has reached on a fielder's Choice scored the second and leading run of the game her her formed for the Tigers without those two men who knows what would have happened pop up on the infield Seth Brown says he has it and he does a scoreless eth in relief for Asal tells me the game is still waiting to unfold in the final two offensive innings for the A's and Shane Lang leers will pick [Music] up one got underneath it it's a high fly ball to Center Meadows fighting the Sun and he's got it see the flags starting to wave a [Music] little the winds matter right now bouncing ball to kler he shuffles and throws to first as compared to how Marat has gone with a guy like beo it's not like the Tigers didn't use just as many arms last night but because of the situation they're in does it seem like they're more inclined to use those guys now well it's really Chris about having to balance the workload of everybody that we saw in the ball game last night and moving forward and so in the instance of BAU it's about being able to get the work in out of necessity I think of your AJ hinge you've got guys down there that you know you can rely on in tight spots but you're also going to have to ask some guys who you might not lean on in plus-side situations to get a job done to show that they can be dependent on now it's Brent Rooker 99 runs batted in he's one for three today and he fouls it off of Jake Rogers his numbers are unbelievable this year and and that's through somehow underneath young and Rooker gets the board stays down on him he expected bit more of a H you just didn't get it his day is done it will be up to Schuman to keep the inning going with Rooker on first he'll swing a Miss on a [Music] sink this has been a very unique [Music] game it's good competitive baseball from a couple groups who know that they are top of the Zone strike Schuman leans back they are boys from the 209 that's the University of Pacific baseball team had the pleasure and the honor of Hosting coach Reed Peters and the rest of the bo is making sure that they know what they're doing and why they're doing it BAU Strikes Out Rogers one downo just blowing 96o day before and then the first two games of the home stand the A's one by one so a lot of one-run contest which was similar to earlier in the season when the A's were able to do this at home lead you know what do those baseball games feel like to that group is there a sense of urgency [Music] October I think for teams that are trying to figure out who they are two two wind up and Pitch it's outside kler didn't offer at it he has plenty of speed if he gets aboard for Parker Meadows kler bringing up the Lefty Parker Meadows in the ninth where the Tigers lead by [Music] one has playoff aspirations uh-huh and to all of them who stayed up as long as it needed to be especially the ones in the e [Music] yeah a couple of broad kler going and a popup he's got a retreat Megan a catches Allen right next to Mr Alvarez glad to know I lived up to the potential nail in it strike one to [Applause] [Music] verling see blade then gray and Cameron barring any changes would be the three to come up in the ninth need at least a run there strike two painted well by BAU how about the job he two to one the fans are behind him 100% of the way delayed steel now they got kler hung up gray holds on to the baseball a bit too long it hits off of kler and he will stand up at second base [Music] saf and in one of the cornerstones of American Auto Insurance is important for Detroit two and two in the dirt that gets away from langers a wild pitch advances kler now and things get interesting at three and two with two outs Off Pitch coming from BAU here it is and a swing and a miss [Applause] outstanding AJ takes down low 20- Fly ball to right verling will make the catch over shoulder one [Music] away and this is the chess match well looks like he's making a change Chris so for two with a single and a walk now it's nevan's turn he'll take one the bottom of the Zone plus rder a big swing and they will get that base runner Tyler Nevin Loops it into left field a one out single and now two two bouncing ball to third kler to second to First and Cameron is safe bang bang play at [Music] first 02 and Gil off swings and misses the Tigers win the second game of the series 2 to one it's been close contest at after close contest Detroit improves to
