so much un expain but I don't mind it's [Music] dance dance [Music] dance dance [Music] just about ready to go 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 swings and sends a rocket to right gamble makes the grab one pitch and one out and let's take a look at the lineup one guy leading the way offensively for this club right now aeno Suarez Tops on the team in batting average boo a guy who's showing off some excellent batto ball ability when he digs into at the plate you know that's useful if your team needs to get an inning going get a leadoff man on but it's also incredible to have a guy like that in the lineup because he's a run producer who can drive in runs if you got guys on base already so he's a huge piece in this lineup no trouble here puts it away for the out out number two two out space is empty now a chance for Jack Peterson trying to pick up his first knock in the big [Applause] leagues clober to right field way back gone he flexes his power with that swing and they jump out front it's one nothing [Applause] love to see a hitter aggressive on the first pitch of an at bat you watch him from the on Deck Circle so when you step in the Box you're ready to pull the trigger wherever it's at really good job by the hitter total conviction on that swing base is empty with two away Josh Bell stands in now for the Diamondbacks fast ball for a strike oh and [Music] one and he deals this one smoked on its way out of [Applause] here another another one backto back homers it's two nothing he put a charge into that one that was a lightning swing right there no doubt about it back-to-back homers always a special feeling at the Ballpark especially if it's your team that does it and those guys get to slap hands at home plate this is the kind of thing that can really fire up a ball [Applause] so two away with nobody on now up next for Arizona Jake McCarthy on the ground right side and he can't come up with it and he's going to make it to First and we'll see how they score it 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 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 worked to get here two outs runner at first aeno Suarez up to the plate now looking for his first big league hit right here hammers that one curling down the line and foul he might want to steal second in this spot but he's dealing with a catcher that has one of the best pop times in the game he needs to pick his spot very wisely he one swing and a ball hammered left field and it hits the top of the wall around third the relay [Applause] safe so he gets two Milestones with that hit his first big league 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 ADV he's never going to forget runner at first with two away at the batter now paven [Applause] Smith in the air right field pretty well struck gamble raging back towards the wall pulls it in and the warning track but two round Trippers in this inning the long ball was working it's now three nothing you're watching Major League Baseball on the show back here at minut made Park and on the mound now Ryan Nelson and singy we were talking earlier about how he's doing a great job navigating through tough spots I've just been so impressed with when it seems like there's more pressure he's more calm and settles in he's done an incredible job with runners in scoring position most guys they get a little tight they start to aim the baseball but for some reason he gets looser the ball comes out of his hand with more life and he's able to wiggle off the hook of you know tough situations and get his team back in the Dugout Jose Altuve the leadoff batter as he looks at ball one they're off to a great start three-run lead after their first inning but so important to be airtight defensively don't give away extra outs and allow that other club to get back in this ball game and the rander deals wouldn't chase that [Applause] time here's a 3oh there's a strike 95 of that one clearly taking all the way there in that three-oh count it was a cookie right down the middle [Music] that one finds the Zone that's strike two outside and that is ball four it's tough after falling behind a hitter two balls and no strikes but now at least he gets a fresh start against a new batter but he needs to get back into the strike zone and start pitching with conviction yon Alvarez the next to hit takes ball one and another ball well he's really working him away this sbat sometimes take a little bit off velocity try to get a roll over something on the ground stay away from that big hole on the right side of the infield left hand hitter Waits I got three [Applause] and foul ball there down here we high in the air out to right under it Carol makes the [Music] play that now we check out the Astros lineup and one of the most exciting young stars in the sport Yer Diaz Ando we're talking about a guy who has great wheels and then puts them to good use he's the team leader in stolen bases and run score man using his speed to just get in the scoring position and then just flying home when the guys behind and put the ball in play I absolutely love watching him do it because he causes havoc on the base paths way outside and that's ball two rander kick Steals and that one fouled [Music] off not even close there and the count is three and one [Music] swing and a highfly ball pretty well struck right field Carol ranes back and that one is going to go and they throw a pair on the board it's [Applause] 32 when you have a team that hits home runs at such a high rate they can get back in the ball game so quickly that's why that leadoff walk was extremely [Music] [Applause] [Music] costly one down here's Alex bregman [Music] swinging a foul over the screen and back out of play one out base is empty and that's outside and a pitch that one not close two and one and that's outside [Applause] [Music] stri hit pretty well in the air out to Center McCarthy trying to get there and there's two down here's the catcher gayer Diaz this is a guy who is very highly regarded defensively fun to watch him control stuff behind the plate Good Game caller good at framing but it's that big arm that really stands out first offering misses badle for ball one when you got a catcher like this guy with a big arm like that behind the plate it really shuts down the running game first inning and already up to 23 pitches and there's a ball I'll say this as a former position player and base stealer when you come into a game and you've got a guy like this behind the dish with a big arm you really have to change your approach can't try to steal cuz you'll get thrown out well we'll hold that thought as that's the third out and we'll end the inning but not before they're able to draw closer with this blast it's now a 3-2 ball game you're watching major League Baseball on the show top of the second and here's the rookie catcher Adrien del Castillo Adrien del Castillo the right hander back to work that one down the line oh can't pick it up cleanly but the throw to first gets him easily and that's the first out batting the second Bas here's Luis goret kind of a throwback no batting gloves line to right and that'll be a base hit and that turns the lineup [Applause] over Luis goret 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 wa 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 could take a minute to just appreciate what you've done and how hard you worked to get here Corby Carrol swings it now good power and he's homered off some really big names early in his career oh now this one is blessed to right foret it way back there and gone a gigantic blast and they boost their lead it's 52 that's their third home run of the game they're having a lot of fun at the plate in this one they've got the long ball working for them on autopilot he's so good at getting his arms extended and then that's exactly what he did right there you don't typically want to pull a pitch in that part of the plate but he doesn't allow his risks to roll over stays through the ball gets the Loft and gets the Home Run Bas is empty one away Heraldo Pomo stands in now for the Diamondbacks right down to shoot going one Pomo measures six F Feet 2 in 24 years old and he was born in the Dominican Republic one down base is empty line drive and that's a base hited to right paraldo Pomo 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 could take a minute to just appreciate what you've done and how hard youve work to get here man at first with one gone next to hit for Arizona Jack Peterson and immediately pumps in a strike to the left-handed hitter two runs across in the inning here at the top of the second clobber to right field way back G that was blasted to the moon it's their second home run of the inning and they add to the lead it's 72 that's their fourth home run of the game they can't stop and they won't stop hitting home runs in this one boo they're clearly feeding off of each other at the dish with a low 90s fast ball you have to live on the edges and hit your spots if you don't you'll get hit hard really good swing there patient and waited for it was like BP all over again so one out nobody on next is the designated hitter Josh Bell DPS one to right and it stays fair and that rolls into the corner makes the turn and heads for second in safely it's a double and his second hit everything came together perfectly for him right there just a solid swing right there caught it out front and ripped it into the outfield for the base hit those always feel great next up for the Diamondbacks Jake McCarthy reached on an infield single this first [Applause] time bunts it in the air bregman pulls it in on the run now batt third [Applause] AZ aeno Suarez up to hit down singled and drove in a run his first time [Applause] through pulled down the line this one hammered but it's foul that one is absolutely belted and that's just foul two outs and one in scoring [Applause] position this one drill to left no doubt about it as they add on more gone he'll touch them all their third home run of the inning and they add a couple more it's 92 and their fifth home run of the game some things in this sport are contagious Boo and right now for this team clearly it's the long ball no matter how this outing ends that pitch is going to haunt him for a while an 02 mistake that's supposed to be a Pitch out of his own he left it in a spot that the hitter could do some damage with and that's exactly what he did manager out of the Dugout now and it looks like we'll see a change on the mound Verlander done in this one and this is one he'd like to forget back with a new arm after this so a new pitcher out of the bullpen for the Astros Hunter Brown he's been so good against [Applause] lefties two outs nobody on now up next for Arizona Haven Smith hard ground ball base nowock and that keeps the inning alive the battle the catcher Haven Smith 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 could take a minute to just appreciate what you've done and how hard you work to get here so a man aboard and now the catcher comes up to him Adrien del Castillo and there's one thing on his mind this at bat getting that first hit at the big league level Bunch it towards the mound slings to First and they're happy to just get off the field after that frame I'm on my way oh man Pap gas the man my just bottom of the second and stepping in is the Speedy Jeremy P Peña Jeremy and here it comes that one way outside ball one there's a ball he hasn't wanted to challenge him both of those pitches off the plate away don't expect anything down the heart of the plate you may just have to be patient and take your walk here not close with that one and it's three and0 [Applause] [Applause] out to short throws across the diamond lead off man retired here in the second the first B Victor Vic kartini at the [Music] pl and the pitch is out side ball [Applause] one righty to the plate outside and it's two and0 Carl Dixon doing the umpiring behind the plate and boo I'm not sure if it's because he sort of sets up higher than most but one thing to be aware of with Dixon is the high strike not usually a big deal because most players are swinging at pitches up there but we may see some surprise looks from Hitters from time to time because that's just so unusual wouldn't chase that [Applause] time the Dbacks up big in this one bottom half of inning number two and he walked him on four pitches that just came apart right there four pitch walk and Guy the play was not going to help him out by swinging at something out of the Zone G run on it first with one gone here's Ben [Music] gamble that one misses that's five straight maybe losing command a little bit after the walk next pitch not even [Music] [Applause] close at the belt and fires and another ball man at first one away pitch misses ball three [Applause] [Music] ground ball left side could be two a second that's one double play and that'll do it for the inning offense held in check there we head on now to the top of the third it's the Dbacks nine and the Astros two [Music] back here in Houston top half of the third inning now it's the second baseman Luis gor and the pitch bed back towards the mound throws the first in time lead off man retired here in the third the right field number seven Corbin Caroll this is Corbin Carroll he's already homered here in this one Corbin Carroll was an easy choice for Rookie of the Year in 20 23 voters made him the unanimous Choice after he put together a consistent season that took a lot of drama away from the announcement the world of baseball knew he was going to win it man he smoked that fast ball he's all over it it's just frustrating when you can't get it to fall maybe next time up he'll find a hole Heraldo Pomo stands in now for the Diamondbacks smoked to right center and this one's going to go out of here a massive home run and they tack one on the board it's 10 [Applause] to2 that's exactly the pitch he was looking for crushes it and hits it out of the ballpark [Applause] [Applause] here's Jack Peterson and a bunt towards third to First and he beats it well singy that was really nice looking able to get it down and in a good spot and he makes it look easy bad angle was perfect Barrel stayed above the hands could almost walk to first man it first and now the switch hitting first baseman Josh Bell and he buns but that's a foul ball one run across in the frame so far we're here in the top half of inning number three bus it straight back to the mound in plenty of time to First and that is the inning Dbacks get one on the solo Jack it's now a 102 ball game you're dialed into the show [Music] they want but they won't do these days people say a lot of things but they won't do things that they want to man what you going to do set for the bottom of the third and now the center fielder chz McMan Nelson back to work and ball [Applause] one so two balls and no strikes and that's outside [Applause] right let's see if he gives him anything to hit here and he walked him four pitches that's an easy walk man he could have walked me right there but last one wasn't even close2 up to H here he walked and came around to score his first time up [Music] wouldn't chase that [Applause] time can't find it here that's six straight balls [Music] the pitch and another ball runner at first with no outs [Applause] here and a four pitch walk he just hasn't had great command of his pitches in this one definitely more walks than you'd like to see here's Jordan Alvarez flyed to right his first time [Music] and that's outside two walks in the inning already and he just doesn't seem comfortable out there like he can find the right mechanics and then repeat them the pitch two and0 good spot for the hitter definitely has the advantage in this count with Runners on look for him to be aggressive on this next pitch [Applause] that one misses and now three [Applause] and0 it kicks andand deal and they're B loaded up gosh another walk in this one man he is having some real issues with control here's Kyle Ducker he's already homered in this game as a batter he's known for performing better in these night games he might start two for two in this one and the first offering is not close well this is a tough situation with the bases loaded but the healthiest mindset is just try to get outs one hitter at a time all loaded up dangerous hitter at the plate now wanted one he must have been looking for something else cuz he gave up on that pitch a little early it was right down Main Street probably not going to see a better pitch to hit in this hit [Applause] back next offering way off the plate in situations like these the air can get really thin up there at the plate got to find a way to breathe and slow everything down now one miss one [Music] [Applause] there's a strike and boy that was the pitch 3-1 you want to be really aggressive on the fast ball Bas is Juiced no outs foul ball and it remains a Full Count oh that's a really good pass to the ball right there just a little bit too quick got to find a way just let it travel I care more the pitch runs it up to 96 to record the punch out and that's the first strike out of his major league career and it could be the first of many if he meets the goals he's set for himself and the expectations others have for him he doesn't want to just win games he wants to dominate at this level do you think Young pitchers can sometimes get too caught up in trying to rack up PS early in their career Bo I think they can it's kind of like a hitter that doesn't have power [Applause] the 01 ball one there that misses two and one next offering is [Applause] outside Bases Loaded one away here in the last half of the third he fast ball for a strike and now it's three and two Ball Four he's walked in a run he's really gotten himself into a mess up there and now forces home a run with the wall this definitely getting away from it so the bases are loaded here one gone gayer Diaz up next for the Astros old for one with a fly out to [Music] Center not even close there one and0 [Music] the pitch that one not close two balls no strikes pressures on right here two count base is loaded you don't want to fall to a three ball count and then walk in or on he's got to challenge The Hitter right here that misses the zone and that's ball [Music] three swings and blasts one deep to left Center McCarthy going back and it slams off the bottom of the wall pulls him to third safely as they score a pair on the play Yer Diaz 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 you worked to get here Jeremy P digs in now grounded out as first time up ball one no strike here comes a pitch that one misses and the count is two and0 wouldn't chase that [Applause] [Music] time two on one out hard hit left side sends it across the first out number two and another run comes in Victor kartini up next for the Asos walks his first [Music] time pitch misses and that's ball one runner at second two down [Applause] [Music] [Applause] out and another [Music] [Applause] ball kicks and fires pitch misses there and that's ball three [Music] and he pumps it a strike [Applause] outside and that is ball four oh he's been in a very giving mood today no right fi so next up for Houston Ben gaml he's over for [Music] one call me DAV [Music] first pitch not [Applause] [Applause] close and delivers outside well usually a high level of confidence when you're facing a young pitcher out there on the mound in this situation aead 2 has put himself in a really good spot two on two outs and that's outside well I would expect in this three count you're taking all the way see if he'll walk you and that's Ball Four pretty easy walk right there last pitch wasn't even much to think about now two out spaces loaded now here is chz mccan wouldn't chase that time two outs bases are full that one way outside and that's ball two 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 that's outside and that's ball three love how this guy grinds out at bats I mean he's down there at the bottom of the lineup in the nine hole but he's worked himself into really good hitters count trying to pick up a two out RBI fast ball for a [Applause] strike B is loaded two now hard ground ball base now one run across here's the throw to the plate he's in there and it's now a two-run game Chaz mcor 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 it kind of be overwhelming D 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 so the batting order turns over here's the former MVP Jose [Music] Altuve wa outside ball [Applause] one and another ball two outs couple of base runners at first and second next pitch is outside yon Alvarez to bat next [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] and that one fouled [Music] [Applause] [Music] off swung on Bel that one is back G he rocketed that one out of here and it gives him the lead in the third it's 1110 listen to these fans this place is absolutely buzzing right now you can feel the energy all the way up here in our broadcast [Music] Booth knew what pitch he wanted to hit spit on some other pitches in this at bat was very patient and it paid [Music] [Music] off so two down your Don Alvarez up next for the Astros [Music] and first off ring is fouled [Applause] [Applause] off two outs one and one [Applause] let's go [Applause] [Music] as pitch misses there now two balls in a strike two out space is empty next pitch misses way outside Kyle Tucker up next [Music] and he hits a ground ball right side whips it to Smith and they get the out on Alvarez out and thank goodness the inning is at last over but not before they bat around as nine men wind up coming around to score on to inning number four it's the Astros 11 and the 10 and welcome back to the ballpark digging in it's the Speedy outfielder Jake McCarthy marthy the wind of the pitch pitch there's a swing and a drive and it's gone and that should quiet this home crowd his first Homer of the year it's 1111 he sent the first pitch over the wall must have dinner reservations cuz he wasn't wasting any time at the plate in added back [Applause] so singy this is a little bit of a surprise a guy known for line drives hits going over the fence well if you're a little too early you'll get some elevation and the ball get out of the ballpark for him it's kind of a mistake but you know what when you have such a good approach every now and then you're going to run into one so it's all tied up thanks to the Home Run aeno Suarez stands in now for the diam backs Line Drive caught put a really good swing on that pitch and hit the ball hard you know line drives won't always find a hole but the more you can hit the ball like that with good exit vow the better off you're going to be in the long run so digging in paven Smith one for two into the Outfield base hit went up there looking to be aggressive and got something he could handle pretty tough for the infielders to do anything with that one he pulled it hard into the Outfield and even when you keep it on the ground it feels great when you hit a missile like that goahead run on base Adrien del Castillo stands in now for the Diamondbacks and there's a fly Ball Deep right field and that one is Off the Wall lead Runner holds it third so two runners in scoring position and just one out Adrien del Castillo 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 could take a minute to just appreciate what you've done and how hard youve worked to get here Luis goret stands in now for the Diamondbacks a bunt and it's popped up Alo grabs it on the run the [Music] Corbin Caroll Corbin Carroll stands in now for the Diamondbacks one for three a bunt and it's popped up brings it in and that's the third out but we're all tied up thanks to this solo Homer on now to the bottom of the fourth Major League Baseball is on the show pick Titan bull strong back here in Houston bottom four stepping in the long ball threat Kyle Tucker if you don't get ahead in the count you can forget about having any success against him so now here's Kyle Tucker Tucker former fifth overall pick in the 2015 oh this one high and deep way back there and that ball is gone another Homer his second home run of the game and just like that they're out front It's [Applause] [Music] 121 well he almost robbed the home run right there and I tell you what he love another crack at it during batting practice you always like to work on that it's so close but that one was just out of his reach and now it's Alex bregman Tucker Hits for power he's got 30 Homer power but the strikeout rate is under 20% McCarthy settles under it and makes the catch and there's one down now Pat catcher at the plate is the Astros catcher Yer Diaz to lello is out of the Dugout and he's going to make a move here Ryan Nelson out of the game walks a big problem for him today as he leaves on the hook for the loss back after a quick break with a new [Music] pitcher so they turn to the veteran pitcher in this spot Merill Kelly pretty tight game so they're looking for Quality pitches out of them right here got to do his best to keep the score right where it [Music] is come on you can do it first offering misses badly for ball one [Applause] and that's outside hey partner how's your scorecard looking right now little dicey kind of hieroglyphics style at the moment you know what it's like singy remember our trip to London Yankees and Red Sox in 2019 I think they were were 50 runs scored in the two games combined my scorecard was ugly for that series righty delivers ripped but it curls foul and a foul ball one out base is empty and a run in we're here in the bottom of the [Applause] fourth now Fly ball to right center Carol moving under it brings it in and there's two away yeah pretty ridiculous and you use like five different colors of pin so like it's just a mosaic over there yeah I mean I I know you're always judging the different pens that you know I get the skin any scoring pen and then I have the red and then the black and then I got a highlighter so there is a lot going on pñ the next to hit takes [Music] outside and the next pitch is way [Applause] outside two down nobody on that misses and now three [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] and0 let's see if he gives him anything to hit here hey [Applause] and a pop off right side foul territory makes the grab on the run and that is that Astros not your run of the solo Homer on to the top of the fifth we go back after this on the show [Music] and we're back we go to the top of the fifth now it's the short stop Heraldo Pomo the W to kick the pitch fought off foul you know these Dbacks doing a good job of putting the ball into play and that makes things more challenging on the defensive side double digit hits and zero strikeouts I don't know which of those is more impressive but especially in today's game that's something they can feel very good [Applause] about the left and Jack Peterson stands in three for three with a pair of home runs and a single bunting for a hit he pops it up pulls it down and he makes the catch and there's one away well he gave the bun a shot there but not able to execute yeah I think he rushed it a little bit and when guys Rush can be a popup or can be bunted right back at a position player here's Josh [Applause] Bell hit on the ground might be two slings to Second and that's two pitcher made the pitch and his players made the play behind him nice job 463 inning ending double play back here at M Park we head to the bottom of the fifth and here's the first baseman Victor kartini the pitch in the air left side moving under this one going up on down almost a loud start to the Inning on that first pitch man he's going to walk that one back no doubt and now Ben gaml gaml in his seventh season 31 years old they got him off of wavers earlier this season and the first offering is not close Bas is empty one away last half of inning number [Applause] five wouldn't chase that [Applause] time not even close there and it's three and0 can't glove it cleanly but he wins the foot race the first good job of knowing how much time he had there Chaz mccor up next for the [Music] Astros first pitch not close [Applause] [Applause] two outs and another ball no [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] stri that misses three balls no strikes [Applause] [Music] right side hard hit goret to first out number three so they make short work of them there five innings complete Houston leads this one 12- [Music] 11 back here in Houston now it's going to be Jake mccy you know this guy's great speed is in the back of that pitcher's mind if he can get on it's going to give him one more thing he's got to think about well struck deep right field went back and out of here another Homer he's done it again his second Homer of the game it's 1212 [Music] [Applause] just an excellent swing all the way around and it had that sound coming off the bat that gets everyone's attention got a pitch the drive short to the baseball squared it up and the backs spin carried it out of here the Astros turn to a new arm of the mound from baldez and he has some nasty breaking stuff [Music] so it's all tied up thanks to the Home Run next to hit for Arizona aeno Suarez oh now this is blasted way back there on its way gone that's one way to quiet the crowd his second home run of the game it's 1312 [Applause] welcome to the game first pitch out of the bullpen a tough one and you know he's just trying to get one in there for a strike and on the other side as a hitter it's a great time to be aggressive and Let It Fly it's not what they were looking for when they turned to him but now he's got to find a way to reset so up next paven Smith ground ball right side a sliding stop fires to First and they get the out we saw a few skills on display there for the out technique was great reaction time was there and the slide was smooth watching that play Come Together was really fun Adrien del Castillo stands in now for the Diamondbacks wobber to right field way back G a gigantic blast their third home run of the inning it's 1412 that one just sounded different and might have been the loudest moment yet man my ears are ringing I could feel that swing from the booth that's exactly the pitch he was looking for crushes it and hits it out of the ballp one out base is empty now Lis goret no question about this one it's out of [Applause] here they do it again backto back homers and they add a run it's 1512 and that shot makes their grip on the lead even [Applause] tighter well he put a really nice swing on that one one and everything was on time took a direct path to the ball excellent extension and just drove it out of here nothing better than when the ball jumps off your bat like that now a right-handed arm out of the bullpen ronell Blanco just trying to keep this one close here and this is where Bullpen can give their players a chance to fight back into the [Music] game Corbin Carroll will hit next puts a bunt down and he beats it out now batting the short St Heraldo Pomo [Applause] one down here's the short stop at the play Heraldo Pomo in the air right center this is mashed way back and gone that was blasted to the Moon they are unloading here their fifth Homer of the inning and they add on it's 17- 12 that's a swing that'll boost the win probability for sure just an excellent swing all the way around and it had that sound coming off the bat that gets everyone's attention got a pitch to drive short to the baseball squared it up and the backs SP carried it out of here Bas is empty one away here's the left fielder Jack Peterson gets the bunt down the right side steps on first for the out now batting designated hitter Josh Bell Josh Bell at the plate now right [Applause] lays down a bunt to the right side the flip to the pitcher covering they don't come much closer than that bang bang play to and the inning they bring nine to the plate and six come around to score top of the order due up in the home half of the six Arizona's on top 17- 12 back here in Houston bottom of the six here's the Astros lead off man Jose Altuve altu as he turns on the rubber here with that good live arm delivers chop to First Smith he'll do it himself and that's one out as they get the lead off hitter in the six the leftfielder number 44 yordon Alvarez now it's yordon Alvarez [Music] [Music] first offering Miss is badle for ball one talk about the right guy at the right spot they really need a rally and this guy is someone you can believe in to find a way to get on base left hand batter weights two balls no stri B is empty one away here in the bottom of the six next pitch is [Applause] outside fast ball for a strike thought the green light might be on right there but maybe not if you're looking to swing in that count that's the pitch you [Music] want and the 3-1 and there's Ball Four boo if I were him I'd be nibbling around the plate as well I mean this guy is just capable of hitting pitches outside of the zone and driving them a long way and next to hit for Houston Kyle Tucker and the way he's going in this one we've been waiting for his spot to come around again all right listen everyone stop what you're doing right now this guy's got two home runs already now he's going for number three that one not close and that's ball one and there's a [Applause] [Music] ball next offering way off the plate [Music] and the pitch and Kyle Tucker will take his face his ability to draw walks has been something that's been part of his career since day one now it's Alex bregman [Music] can't find it here that's six straight balls that's way outside and now two and0 one out Runners at first and [Applause] second another Miss eight straight outside the strike zone and that one is lifted in the air Peterson drifts towards it huls it in for the out a little drop and drive on that swing backside collapsing just a little bit trying to put the ball in the air so first and second with two outs and stepping in for the Astros Gainer Diaz that one missed that missed by a lot ball two two on two outs three balls no strike hard hit right side he takes it himself to the bag and that'll do it [Music] and welcome back to the ballpark we go to the top of the seventh at the Play Jake McCarthy Blanco back to work trying to BU his way on and he's safe at first caught in a run down now and he's out easily here's the third baseman aeno [Music] Suarez there's the [Applause] strike the wi in the pitch drops a bunt down the first base side and they got him now B the first Bas paven Smith two outs Bas is empty and now the first baseman paven [Applause] Smith swing and a ball hammered left field Alvarez going back holds it in on the warning track [Applause] bottom of the seventh the batter will be the short stop Jeremy P [Applause] Jeremy Andy deals ball one there [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] PCH misses and that's ball [Music] two and that's [Applause] [Music] outside let's see if he gives him anything to hit here yeah big a bat right here he did the team thing took until he got a strike now he's got to go to work short up that swing a little bit do whatever it takes to get on [Applause] base hot shot to third tosses across the first and the lead off hitter set down to open the seven number 17 Victor K so next up for Houston Victor kartini [Music] and the pitch is outside ball one the Diamondbacks leading by five here the bottom of the seven two balls no strikes to count wouldn't chase that time and he walked him on four pitches maybe a little loss of focus on the mound right there pretty much gifted him first base with a quick free pass one gone runner at first and now the right fielder Ben gaml and the first offering is not close and another ball and the next pitch is way [Applause] outside and the right-hander deals and a four pitch walk second walk of the game for him and he's been really patient at the play a game plan that he's sticking to he's just not going outside of what he's looking for up there ch mccor up next for the Astros first pitch not [Applause] close outside next pitch misses way [Applause] outside Runners at first and second with one gone and they're all loaded up definitely lost the handle during that sequence four pitches for the walk and that last one didn't even threaten The Zone catcher might want to go talk to him next to hit Jose [Music] Altuve a strike not sure if he was expected the pitcher to come right at him but he got a nice cookie there and just watched it the entire way that misses and the count is one and one and this one gets away it can't squeeze it Runners stay put and the count moves to two and one B is loaded one away and that's outside [Applause] to third might be two to Second there's one over to paven Smith it's a double play just trying to sneak one through with the bases loaded but an excellent job by the defense to turn that one and get out of this [Music] [Music] Jam all set for the start of the inning now the daac catcher Adrien del Castillo Castillo and the right hter back to work and first offering is fouled off Blanco a 6-3 right he features a slider a for seamer a change up and occasionally mixes in the slur bounc to kartini and he handles it himself for the [Applause] out Luis gor stands in now for the Diamondbacks on the ground right side and it's through for a hit so they get a man aboard with a one out single having himself a really nice game at the plate just one of those seen eye base hits through the in field he just kind of rolled over on it a little bit but sometimes those can find a hole and get you a knock Corbin Carroll stands in now for the Diamond Backs trying to move him over here kartini flips it that's one but no throw to first as he'll hold on to it tough 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 Heraldo Pomo stands in now for the Diamondbacks smok to right center and this one's going to go out of here and he's gone yard again that's his third home run of the game it's 19-2 [Applause] [Music] he's putting on quite the show at the dish here in this one and he's just so locked in with this swing and he's just not missing right now three Homer game man so special and I tell you what it's a lot of fun watching him pull it off as well a new pitcher in the game Taylor Scott I think he's got to be a little tough coming in out of the pin when your guys are trailing so big on the scoreboard just doesn't have the same intensity to it but he's got to find a way because these batters count the same for his stats obviously regardless of the score and now Jack Peterson gets the bunt down the right side he takes it himself to the bag and that'll do it Dbacks at a pair on the Homer home half of inning number eight straight ahead it's major league baseball and it's on the show [Music] know weak appear quite average no Mass no cop no preexposed lavish I managed to kill cats courtesy and we're back now here is yordon Alvarez Alvarez the rander back to work and first offering is fouled off [Music] and there's the [Applause] ball next offering way off the plate and a pitch wouldn't chase that time this one in the air gor calls it in and there's one away oh that's a frustrating into the at bat for the hitter right there I mean that pitch was right down the middle I think he got a little too excited came out of his mechanics instead of driving that ball somewhere he popped it up unfortunate for him popped in the air left field Peterson drifts towards it puts it away for the out and there's two down third baseman number two alen two outs base is empty so here's the Astros cleanup hitter Alex bregman 0 for three with three fly outs boots it but in time nice job to stay with it to end the inning [Music] back here at minute m park we go to the ninth now here's the cleanup hitter for Arizona Josh Bell and the pitch lays down a bunt to the right side not in time an infield knocked to start the inning now batting the center field Jak McCarthy man at first next up for the Diamondbacks Jake McCarthy rander kick deals and a sack bun here fires to first on the Run throw save and that was close this couldn't have played out any better on offense they were trying to trade an out to move the runner into scoring position but instead they just couldn't make the play on defense you really need to get an out there so digging in aeno Suarez [Applause] and fires in a fast ball at [Applause] [Applause] 95 and now the o one on its way to the corner and it gets into the corner but it's foul Chris you look at it these are the spots where pitchers can come on Pitch well instill some confidence in the manager and all of a sudden they're pitching higher leverage spots of the postseason in this final month I mean this is an audition period for the call-ups but it's also for that marginal reliever that was on the roster throughout the season to maybe step up and be on that playoff roster and he pops up the bun Diaz takes it in for the the out two down up next to the diamond the catcher Adrien del Castillo so first and second with two outs Adrien del Castillo stands in now for the Diamondbacks and he lays one down the left side and he can't get a throw off for some reason that's got to be an error and bases are now loaded bases full to gone Luis goret stands in now for the Diamondbacks and that's in there for strike [Applause] one two outs perhaps not quite ready to hit for first two pitches by him for a couple of strikes now back is against the walls going to have to figure something out and figure it out quickly got him third out and that ends the frame they leave them loaded five six and seven will lead things off in the bottom of the night D backs out in front 19- 12 bottom nine and here's the catcher Yer Diaz manager signals over and how about this the intentional walk signal to the lead off hitter the patter number three and now the short stop Jeremy Peña odd Choice here they intentionally walk him and the runner now into scoring position now B first Victor Victor kartini up next for the Astros a very surprising intentional walk here for the dout that loads the bases and now Ben [Music] gam Kelly back to work and that's a strike tough situation right here so important as a pitcher to get ahead in the count as he did right there [Applause] next pitch is [Applause] outside and another [Music] ball and the next pitch is way outside B has loaded nobody out we're in the last half of the ninth [Music] inning right through there for a strike three [Applause] two swing and a ball hit out towards left center field McCarthy right there to make the grab both Runners tagging that he's it safely at third and a run comes into score well right there he's definitely looking for more than just a sack fly with the basees loaded and nobody out but she'll take it now it's up to the guys coming up behind him we pick up the rest of those Runners on base here's the center fielder Chaz [Applause] cor ball one a Runners at the corners one away here the last half of inning number nine that misses the zone now two [Applause] and0 now one miss [Music] lifted in the air right field Carol under it nabs it Runner tags from third [Music] Astros down to their last out Jose Altuve up next for the Astros you just have to find a way to keep this game alive this place will go nuts if you do first offering misses badly for ball [Applause] one wouldn't chase that time and here it comes outside straight to the back stop and now a man into scoring [Applause] position and he walked him oh good day for the on base percentage right there walk number three and the three bags keep on coming you down with OBP Bo first and second two down Yon Alvarez getting ready to hit I mean his pitch efficiency ability to get ahead and count at times pitch to contact let the defense work behind him that's why he's hit to right and that should do it he's got it ball game and the Diamondbacks slug their way to a win in this one nice work out of the bullin for that first MLB wo they turn to him when they didn't have the lead he kept things steady and he's rewarded with the w tons of offense in this one for Chris Singleton and our entire crew I'm John shamby saying so long with love in his eyes he teaches something [Music] new fall in [Music] love see things through know I've had enough again the day is lonely it's where in [Music] US day is [Music] burning I feel time of the Ball Game 3 hours and 55 minutes tonight's paid attention is at M Bay Park 41,8
