00:00On the Hill today for the Giants
00:01will be the right hander Tristan
00:03Beck.
00:04Beck making his seventh
00:05appearance of the year.
00:06First start.
00:08And I think about spring
00:10training when he had a horrible
00:11injury that he had thought he's
00:13gonna lose the whole season.
00:13Well he came back and he's done
00:15really well.
00:15No record yet but a one point
00:16five zero year in 12 innings.
00:19With 11 strikeouts against two
00:20walks win the right handed
00:22batter and a four pitch walk for
00:24Mason wins the first inning.
00:26And he's going to be the
00:27And a four pitch walk for Mason
00:30Wynn gets the day started for
00:31the Cardinals offense.
00:33Twenty one homers seventy five
00:35runs batted in and that one
00:36slashed the other way a base
00:38hit.
00:38Mason Wynn got a late start.
00:39He's streaking around second.
00:41The throw is going to come into
00:42third.
00:43It's on target and Burleson
00:45moves up 90 feet.
00:46Cray makes a bad decision that
00:48cost the Giants a base there at
00:49second and third with nobody out.
00:51So Paul Goldschmidt whose
00:53numbers in this park are
00:55excellent and a line drive hit
00:57toward left.
00:57Marcana comes in makes the catch
00:59wins tag.
01:00Here comes the throw.
01:01It's going to be cut off and
01:03Paul Goldschmidt drives home run
01:05number sixty three and St. Louis
01:07cashes in the lead off walk.
01:09It's one to nothing.
01:10That's what you want to see.
01:11Manufacture a little bit.
01:12The Cardinals have first and
01:13third with one out and Newt
01:15Barr coming up.
01:15Got him big out with a runner
01:17third.
01:18Less than two outs the pitch
01:20swing and a miss.
01:21He struck it out on a high
01:22fastball and the Cardinals get
01:24just the one run.
01:25Well Andre Pallante has had a
01:27whale of a twenty twenty four
01:28season what a fortuitous turn of
01:31events for St. Louis when he
01:32asked to go down to Triple-A and
01:34become a starter that's turned
01:35into one of the great stories of
01:37twenty twenty four for the
01:38Cardinals really made a big
01:40transition started using a
01:42sinker against the right handers
01:43look at the arsenal how he's
01:44attacking overall forcing
01:46sinker slider and the knuckle
01:48curve for Andre Pallante.
01:50The pitch to Kana Kana flips
01:52one to right and he's got a hit
01:55and he's got more than a single
01:57Fianna gets to it and holds
01:59Canada to a double.
02:00Here's Ramos on the ground to
02:02the right side.
02:04Diving is Donovan.
02:05He'll throw in the dirt
02:07everybody's safe.
02:08What Donovan did is he saved a
02:10run but the runners will be at
02:12the corner.
02:13Here's Wade line drive left
02:15field.
02:16That's a big hit.
02:17Everybody moves up the base
02:19Canada scores and this game is
02:21tied in Carnasio on the ground
02:24in the hole and it ticked and
02:27Ramos didn't stop and the
02:29Giants take the lead.
02:31Cardinal defense really having a
02:33rough inning right now.
02:34This goes into the hole and when
02:37going to his right had all the
02:38time in the world to get a body
02:39in front of the sink.
02:40He still doesn't come up with a
02:41play.
02:42So now first and second one out
02:44the Giants have two runs in
02:45looking for a big inning with
02:47Patrick Bailey at the plate
02:48floater hits slowly towards
02:50second force out there wins
02:53the first is going to be in
02:54time and that will retire the
02:56side.
02:57The Giants get two runs four
02:58hits one air and the lead two
03:01outs left handed batting Grant
03:03McCray swing and a miss Grant
03:05McCray fooled and that is
03:06strikeout number two for Andre
03:09Pallante.
03:10He's rounding into form
03:11Cardinals down a run early.
03:12Here's Goldie a sack fly brought
03:14home Mason win in the first
03:16inning swing and a shot hit to
03:17center twisting and turning is
03:20McCray.
03:21He can't get it.
03:22Goldschmidt on his way to
03:24second with a one out double.
03:26That ball was stung.
03:27This one by Goldie is hit on the
03:29screws and a bouncing ball
03:31right side will advance the
03:32runner but two are out and it's
03:34up to Newt Barr who chased and
03:36struck out his first time up.
03:38It is the three one popped up
03:40and this one is in play behind
03:42the pitcher's mound.
03:43It's going to be Chapman
03:44calling for it.
03:45Chapman will make the catch
03:47ending the inning and Paez on
03:50his way to second.
03:51He's got a two hour double.
03:53Let's see if Seani can bring him
03:55home and get his time.
03:56Got a chance to come out.
03:59Chapman to lead it off.
04:00Matt Chapman O'Bad against
04:01Pallante down the line.
04:03Fairball Chapman's going to have
04:05another double the runner at
04:07third with one out with Patrick
04:09Bailey in field and because of
04:12that Bailey's got a base hit
04:13Patrick Bailey knocks in a run
04:15as Chapman trots home from
04:17third.
04:18It's three to one Giants
04:20Pallante who picks up the
04:21strikeout but a stolen base for
04:23Bailey's four for four stealing
04:25bases.
04:26Here's Schmidt and a fair ball
04:29down the line.
04:30Bailey's going to score.
04:31It's got a double.
04:33It is amazing what has happened
04:34the last three weeks to Casey
04:36Schmidt.
04:37I mean he is in it.
04:38You really look forward to the
04:40Cardinals have first and third
04:41nobody out.
04:42And Paul Goldschmidt comes up
04:44representing the tying run
04:46little Tapper that's rolled
04:47toward third Chapman's got it.
04:49He'll have one play and
04:51Goldschmidt brings home Mason
04:52win with a ground out and makes
04:54it a four to score.
04:56The Cardinals have first and
04:57third with one out just like
04:59they did in the first inning
05:01when Newport came up and struck
05:02out on the line right at Schmidt
05:05Newport hit it right in the
05:06nose.
05:07He's retired.
05:08That is out number two.
05:10Now the O2 pitch playing in the
05:11Messi struck it out just like
05:14that.
05:15So the Cardinals go to their
05:15bullpen for the first time.
05:16This time Chris Roy Crawford the
05:18right hander comes on no face
05:20Matt Chapman to right field
05:23Walker over his head and off the
05:26brick Chapman got give me a
05:28double his second double of the
05:30game and Chapman moves over to
05:32third Bailey in the same
05:33scenario bounced into the
05:35infield for a hit in an RBI.
05:37It's a high drive in the center
05:38field.
05:39That's going to be plenty deep
05:40enough.
05:41The tag by Chapman.
05:42Here's the catch.
05:43The heaves it all the way in.
05:45But Chapman crosses the plate
05:46standing up five to two Giants
05:49and the bases are loaded.
05:51Kyle Leahy is the new pitcher
05:52and he'll inherit a bases loaded
05:55two out situation.
05:56He'll be facing Mike Dostoyevsky
05:58fly ball.
05:59Well hit center Siani Bork in
06:01now retreats quick peek at the
06:02wall and he's got room and that
06:05will retire the side.
06:07So Lea strands a trio of Giants
06:10and we head to the seventh.
06:12It's a three run game.
06:13Miller walks Burleson and
06:15Goldschmidt's coming up.
06:16He's had a productive day.
06:17There's a scorcher down the left
06:19field line and headed for the
06:20corner.
06:21That's going to bounce up
06:22against the wall Burleson's on
06:24his way to third.
06:25It's another double for
06:26Goldschmidt and the Cardinals
06:27are in business second and third
06:29with nobody out.
06:30Donovan another left handed
06:31bat line right center field.
06:33That's going to bring home a
06:34couple Donovan on his way to
06:36second.
06:37The Cardinals have made it a
06:39five four game.
06:40First three runners have reached
06:42the seventh inning Donovan with
06:44a three for four day Jordan
06:46Walker up in a big spot.
06:48Tough match up right here for
06:49the right handed Walker first
06:51pitch a base hit to left
06:53Donovan streaking around third.
06:55He's going to score and Jordan
06:57Walker ties the game at five.
06:59But Jordan being ready chip
07:01right off the bat and the bases
07:03are loaded and just one out
07:06Siani's walked once and struck
07:08out twice.
07:09The O2 is swung on in this
07:11Donovan a sinker in on the hand
07:14Rogers makes quick work of
07:16Michael Siani.
07:17Mason right guy right spot
07:19swing and a fly ball to right
07:21shallow angling in towards the
07:24line.
07:25You stretch these under it.
07:26He's got it.
07:27And the inning is over.
07:28The Cardinals do get three to
07:30tie it up but they also leave
07:32him loaded.
07:33Walker comes up.
07:34He tied the game with a hit the
07:35last time looking to give the
07:37Cardinals the lead in the eighth
07:38inning swing and a high high
07:41fly ball left center battling
07:43the sun out there.
07:44And finally it is McCray as he
07:47supposed to do.
07:49He came rushing in and went into
07:50a slide and make the catch.
07:53He decided that it would be
07:56Ramos and Ramos could not see
07:59the ball.
08:00So at the last moment he came
08:01rushing in went into a slide and
08:03he did catch it two outs in the
08:05Giants eight for Todd or Fitz
08:06Gerald.
08:07Look out.
08:09And leave it to our kicks it is
08:12too late.
08:13I think the line drive got both
08:15legs kind of rattle around
08:17between the legs and spit out
08:18facing a left handed batter and
08:20Brett wisely.
08:21That's it.
08:24And he turns it down the right
08:26field line.
08:27Here comes Fitzgerald and the
08:30Giants are going to take the
08:32lead.
08:33Unbelievable.
08:36I wish I could tell you I saw
08:37Norman but the Bud play brings
08:39Levitas up and he throws wide of
08:42Goldschmidt who had none chance
08:44and with two outs and Fitzgerald
08:46speed he scores all the way from
08:48first.
08:49The Cardinals are down by a run
08:50but they get the tying run on in
08:52the ninth.
08:53And here is Pedro Paez got him
08:55turn him into a pair of shoes
08:57and the Cardinals are going to
08:59go to the bench.
09:00Matt Carpenter is on his way to
09:02the plate.
09:02The bat got him.
09:04Remember Carpenter who got
09:06called out on strikes three
09:08times last night and after the
09:10last one in the ninth inning and
09:13he threw his hands up in the air
09:15and discussed again here.
09:16The Cardinals down to their last
09:17down.
09:18Mason Wynn tries to keep it
09:20alive here.
09:21Well there's a high pop fly up
09:23in the sunshine trying to shade
09:25the eyes is Chapman backpedaling
09:27and in fair territory he makes
09:30the catch.
09:31The ballgame is over and the
09:33Giants beat the Cardinals for
09:35the first time this year.
09:37And it was not easy.
