Red Sox vs. Orioles Game Highlights (8/18/24) | MLB Highlights

Carlton Bob Carrington, I never knew the guy's name was Carlton. I watched him play in high school. He threw out the ceremonial first pitch prior to the game. Carrington was selected by the Washington Wizards with the number 14 overall pick in the 2024 NBA draft as part of the proposed trade with the Portland Trail Blazers, a 2023 graduate of ST Francis Academy in Baltimore, but the right hander Albert Suarez on the mound, Suarez is five and four, has a 3 , 39 a pitch 90 in a third innings. 84 hits allowed. Durant is hitting at 290 for the year 15 homers, 61 batted in 22 hit on the ground and right back to the pitcher as he caught it on the line, Albert Suarez snares it and they're two down Tristan Casas who fun to have him back hit softly on the ground. It bounds over the first base bag fair pick by Mount Castle under hands to big Al covering for the final out and so Albert Suarez goes 123 in the top of the first. Quite a match up today. Crawford tied for the league lead allowing 27 home runs against the offense that has hit the most this season 190. And as we start the bottom of the first in this game, it will be Colton Ker to hit first another 22 swing and a miss. He got him there. It is the splitter and Cowser had no chance good sequence there from cutter and they're two away and here now, Gunner Henderson two swing and a miss. He got him beautiful four seamer cutter. He is rolling again no score after one sox and a Devers homer twice in the series. That's so far he's sitting on 199 and Devers chips this one out beyond second base and his shallow center, the shortstop Henderson karaoke's back reaches above his head and makes the catch. Here's Tyler o'neill right on right. Here's the kick and Suarez fires swing and a miss strike three got him on a slow curve ball down and away. Now, here's Masataka to one is lined into left field. Masa hits a base hit with two down in the top of the second. He just keeps on hitting and he continues the inning for Connor. Connor won over to short. Henderson's had a great defensive series and that continues. There's one down has had some lower back tightness of lead but down in the second, the pitch high pop up shallow right field , Hamilton shading himself from the sun is backpedaling. He makes the play and there are two down for Ryan Mount Castle shot in the left field right at o'neill barely had to move and 123 they go. David Hamilton batting with the bases empty and one down from the left side will swing and slap one into left field. A base knock first pitch fastball on the outer half, he rolls it into left field for a one out single. Hamilton was off yesterday went two for four with a homer on Friday. He's aboard for Jarren Duran. One. Durant chops the ball back to Holiday. Holiday flips to Henderson, Henderson pumps but will not throw to. First. Durant reaches on a force out there. He goes pitches on him for strike, two bounces in too late. It was dropped by Henderson anyway as a throw in well behind Durant who's got 31 steals this season. I mean, how do you watch that throw and not say it should be a track meet right now. A swings out to center field, Cedric Mullins ranging to his left now comes in a jog and he makes the catch so Durant on board but nothing going for Boston just one hit no score as we move into the bottom of the third inning Jackson Holiday. It's a 22 pitch from cutter Crawford called third strike 94 with the fastball and he rings up holiday for strikeout number three. Here's Cedric Mullins from the left side Mullins right field and there's a base hit, it gets down in front of a bra. He's got to track it into the corner. It's a one out single for Cedric Mullins zero for four yesterday and starts his first at bat off reaching successfully one out for Ramon that one into right center field. Long drive. Durant is back. He's at the wall leaping and he makes the catch back to first goes Mullins and another outstanding play by Durant. So two down top of the order and Cowser is zero for 11. Mullins goes, the pitch is low throw from Connor Wong misses wide and now he gets knocked down. David Hamilton ranges back and he missed the ball, knocks it down with his glove as his glove falls off of his hand. 32 swinging a high fly to center field. Durant drifting back looks like he's got some room in front of the track and yes, he'll make the catch on the cut of the grass just in front of that 410 sign grounded out to first in the first and the 11 pitch is roped into center another Dr Tristan Kasas, he got a cutter and he sent it right back through the shoot for a leadoff single in the fourth Devers from the left side against Suarez. 32 Devers hits one hard into right field. A base hit Casas got a late break so he stopped at second back to back singles to begin the fourth and in a 00 ball game , the Red Sox are putting together the biggest threat we've seen yet. What a spot for o'neill. I guess he knows better than I do. There it is. And it's a good cutter endeavors with base hits o'neil struck out. Yoshida will send a fly ball off the end of the bat into shallow. Right o'hearn comes charging in to put him away. Suarez one out away from a great escape in the fourth and a ground ball to short Henderson will go across the way to first and Suarez escapes it. Nothing. Nothing is our score man batting for the second time against Crawford has not only one hit and that one is hit high in the air deep right field. Abreu at the high wall looking at one back. Now the Orioles got two hits and they've got their first run. Adley Rutman, a Rainbow homer over the high wall in right field and the Orioles with a one nothing lay in the back to back. They break up a nothing with a solo blast. Rutman knew it the minute it came off that orange crown bat just stop and stare Devers is hit safely in these three games against the Orioles swung on and Miss Suarez gets Devers swinging after a fastball. Another strikeout for Albert Suarez but Albert Suarez with the same traffic he saw in the fourth would like the same result two down for Connor won 22 and he does it a trio of strikeouts for Suarez. He ties his season high six punchouts for the veteran, right. And he keeps the Os on top. So walk and a hit by pitch and this is Deja Vu for the Red Sox Jeff because what do we talked about earlier? Perfect through five. Now he was not that today but the sixth where things just all of a sudden came unglued Ryan o'hearn is in. He did, he does turn it to first Casas gets what sails away. Here comes or to score with an airmail delivery from short. It's two to tell you what he did look inside, he did hit it hard. But as you said, he hit it right to the first baseman and as you mentioned, almost throws it in the camera. It will end the day for Crawford who is nearly flawless through four. He'll be trailing two to nothing. Bailey Horn will come on. So third time Horn and Henderson are meeting in four days. Horn to two. Henderson on a drive out towards right field back at the track. See you later. Henderson sends the bat into the dugout and let's out a yell as he will touch them all. Orioles get their extension. A 40 lead on a two run shot for Henderson back to back days with Jacks the Red Sox now zero for 12 with runners in scoring position. They need a big swing here from Raffaello. The pitch is swung on the line to left field. That's a base hit. Casa scores Devers being waved home and Then stops at third. That was totally wild. I don't know whether Rafi tripped coming around the bag or what it was an awful throw from Kauer. I think if Rafi keeps coming, he's going to score. It's an RB I knock for Rafael. The Red Sox are on the board at 4 to 1. Roy Gonzalez due up and because of that, brandon Hyde is coming out to make a pitching change the closer into the game. Now, sir, Anthony dominguez was acquired from the Phillies as Roy Gonzalez ahead 10, sir, Anthony Dominguez's pitch is shot sky high, foul ground. Third base side running down over is Rutman, the third baseman makes the call of the catch right in front of the Red Sox dugout and that will do it for Boston who gets one but strands them loaded in the eighth one down for refs, 410 in the ninth. There's a swing and a high drive that's deep down the left field line hooking toward the pole and that is off the pole and gone Rob with a home run that will make it 4 to 2. They got one back looking for that maybe earlier right with all these guys on base, maybe a three run shot or whatever. But now you're just a little bloop and a blast away here and the Red Sox are down to their final out 22 20 a miss he struck him out. Orioles split the series take the season series against Boston as the Orioles win it by a final score of 4 to 2. And the Orioles playing long ball, it serves as the Red Sox kryptonite.
