00:00
And Brown top step and the
00:04
Cubs make their way out onto
00:07
the field.
00:08
J.D.
00:08
He's been fun to watch and when
00:11
he is around the strike zone
00:12
with those two pitches the
00:14
fastball and the curveball is
00:16
usually in pretty good shape.
00:18
But whether they're competitive
00:21
pitches or not at least pitches
00:22
you know Dean possibly that the
00:26
hitter is going to swing it up
00:28
or possibly be called a strike
00:29
but those are the big factors.
00:31
Yeah obviously this stuff plays
00:34
get up you know mid 90s fastball
00:35
that good sharp breaking pitch
00:37
and he throws it and play big
00:38
time the Friday in Milwaukee
00:40
six and he's scoreless he threw
00:41
up better than 70 percent first
00:43
pitch strikes that was a real
00:44
key for him.
00:45
The big tall right hander Ben
00:47
Brown on the mound facing Mike
00:49
Yastrzemski outside it's another
00:51
walk.
00:53
Yastrzemski getting a board to
00:55
start it off and the batter will
00:57
be Willie Adamas.
00:58
Adamas on the ground and that is
01:00
a fair ball birdies going to make
01:02
a throw but he had absolutely no
01:04
chance.
01:05
And really Adamas is aboard with
01:07
an infield hit and right after
01:09
the nine run inning let's back it
01:11
up with a little threat give a
01:12
shimmy.
01:12
Nice nice piece of hit a little
01:15
two strike hit and put it in your
01:16
pocket to on for the Giants to
01:18
start this game nobody out John
01:20
who leaves first at bat against
01:22
the righty Brown popped up Kelly
01:27
looking and makes the catch Lee
01:31
looked a little disgusted that
01:33
that one stayed in play Kelly for
01:35
out number one.
01:36
And here comes Matt Chapman down
01:38
Chapman twenty five seven home
01:41
run.
01:42
And that is in there.
01:43
Got him Chad Fairchild rings up
01:45
Matt Chapman that says excuse me.
01:51
Fastball command he just puffs
01:52
that one right over the outside
01:53
corner at ninety five miles per
01:55
hour.
01:56
So Jets had two on nobody out now
01:58
two on two outs and their RBI
02:01
guys so far this year Wilmer
02:02
Flores at play Flores into right
02:04
field sinking fast it's going to
02:06
get down base hit.
02:08
Yastrzemski will come in to score
02:09
the throw goes toward third but
02:11
off line Wilmer does it again
02:14
it's one nothing Giants are you
02:16
not entertained and it's just a
02:18
classic stay inside the
02:20
baseball fight the good fight
02:22
with two strikes lays off the
02:23
curveball and this is why you
02:25
walk him with runners in scoring
02:26
position in two outs he just has
02:28
such a beautiful path look at
02:30
this right there just short to it
02:31
and now Elliott Ramos and the
02:35
pitch swinging a ground ball the
02:36
third field by birdie going to
02:38
second there is the force and
02:40
that's the inning the Giants
02:42
left-hander who has really been
02:44
pitching well Robbie Ray Robbie
02:46
Ray for no three oh five ERA
02:48
thirty eight the third innings
02:50
forty one strikeouts to just
02:52
twenty one walks can get a little
02:54
erratic effectively wild as we
02:56
like to say Cubs are tough
02:58
against lefties they've got good
02:59
numbers against left-handed
03:01
pitching swing and there's a high
03:03
fly ball to left against the
03:05
wind starting back is Ramos now
03:07
he comes racing in still coming in
03:08
and makes the catch well there I
03:12
think was a good indication of
03:13
what the wind will do to it as he
03:15
started back on that one and he
03:18
had to come spreading in so one
03:20
out and here is Kyle Tucker now
03:23
there's a swing and a high drive in
03:24
the right field there's Jastrzemski
03:26
an angling to his left and on to
03:30
the warning track makes the catch
03:32
out number two and here is Seiya
03:36
Suzuki now there's a hard grounder
03:39
up the middle it hits the
03:40
pitcher's mound it was really a
03:41
line drive that hit the mound it
03:43
took a big long hop to cause the
03:45
second baseman going to his right
03:47
and he throws him out to end the
03:49
inning Sam Huff five Pro Bowls he
03:52
was he was an outstanding player
03:53
swing and a miss strike three Ben
03:57
Brown strikes out Sam Huff two
04:00
down second strikeout for Ben
04:02
Brown Christian costs with two
04:05
down and nobody on the Giants
04:06
ahead one to nothing second inning
04:08
here's a smash up the middle
04:09
backhanded by Horner behind second
04:11
good play by Nico throws to first
04:13
in time one two three inning for
04:16
Ben Brown that's a vibe
04:18
definitely a vibe that whole the
04:21
whole thing right there is a vibe
04:23
possible those two are questioning
04:26
we only wore t-shirts to be
04:28
possible I don't know they seem to
04:30
be comfortable swing and a miss
04:32
he struck him out great curveball
04:35
real sharp hard curveball his first
04:38
strikeout you know what we've got
04:40
here today is a it's a it's a back
04:42
door call from what's happening I
04:44
don't know don't go serious yet I'm
04:46
not ready for you to go serious yet
04:47
we're going work we're going hard in
04:49
on the people in the print side here
04:51
we are over here the tough guys
04:53
windows open soft over there is
04:59
soft SOFT hey there's Dave Fleming
05:02
hundred pence three two pitch swing
05:05
and a smash the third comes up and
05:07
hits the body of Chapman and
05:10
ricochets the short to Adamus his
05:12
throw to first in time for the out
05:14
that one got Chapman they say well
05:17
third baseman sometimes you have to
05:19
feel it with your body that one was
05:21
just smoked and came up with a real
05:25
high hop and got him I think and the
05:28
upper body near the left shoulder
05:30
two down on the batter Nico Horner
05:32
fly ball to left shallow racing in
05:34
Ramos dives can't get it it bounces
05:37
behind him and Nico Horner has a
05:39
double another ball that the wind had
05:42
a major effect on run start to this
05:45
season for PC already nine home
05:47
swing and a miss he struck it out
05:50
fastball away runner's strength
05:53
the Reds face for batters this
05:55
inning and from twenty six pitches
05:57
working awfully hard you may have a
05:59
couple guys down in his bullpen
06:01
today as well it's given say a
06:03
Suzuki an opportunity to tie this
06:05
game or more Suzuki has driven in
06:07
thirty one runs he's been their big
06:09
RBI guy that is right there he just
06:13
threw him strike three and it got
06:15
called a ball Chad Fairchild that
06:17
was that ball was up entirely in the
06:20
strike zone according to the stat
06:22
cast strike zone above the knees
06:24
strike three called this time he got
06:28
the call down he looks frustrated
06:32
because that pitch got called a ball
06:33
a little bit early it's a good
06:35
opportunity here for the Giants
06:36
leading one nothing a walk and a
06:38
single have put men at first and
06:40
second for San Francisco now that
06:43
is fair right past the first
06:45
baseman Turner down into the
06:47
corner a run is in stopping at
06:50
third is Wilmer a double for the
06:52
Montoya Junior and man did he hit
06:54
that one hard one hundred four
06:56
miles an hour big RBI two nothing
06:58
Giants critical part of this game
07:01
now it's a pitcher's day wind
07:02
blowing in a front scoring
07:04
environment a base hit here really
07:07
changes the feel of this game into
07:09
center field base hit into score
07:12
Wilmer here comes a throw coming
07:14
home Wade slides he's safe Cubs are
07:17
going to take a look great throw
07:19
from Pete Crow Armstrong and a good
07:23
look at it right there fans react
07:25
the Cubs are leaving the field
07:27
before the announcement is even
07:28
made another great throw from Pete
07:34
Crow Armstrong to cut down a base
07:37
runner here at Wrigley Cubs will
07:39
get some men on base but the way
07:41
this wind is blowing you're going
07:42
to have to do something to generate
07:44
some offense fly ball deep left
07:46
field well hit back goes Ramos back
07:48
near the wall that ball is off the
07:51
wall and bouncing halfway back to
07:53
the infield it's a double for Niko
07:55
Horner it would have been ironic if
07:57
Niko were the guy to hit through
07:58
that wind into the basket for a
08:00
home run he's yet to go deep this
08:02
year almost had all kinds of
08:04
difficulty tracking this one Cubs
08:05
trail three nothing let's see if
08:07
they can get on the board Pete
08:08
Crow Armstrong at the plate I have
08:11
all left field Ramos waits on it
08:13
now charging in and it comes get a run
08:18
Porter in to score PCA to second and
08:23
it's a three one game welcome to
08:24
Wrigley
08:27
issues out there this afternoon
08:29
he's got to be like why do you
08:31
keep picking on me comes just three
08:34
hits today against Robbie Ray Ray
08:36
looking for his fifth win without a
08:38
loss right field yes and even in his
08:43
no decisions you know he's kept his
08:45
team in the game because the Giants
08:47
are seven and oh in his starts this
08:50
year ground ball to short Adamas takes
08:54
it one hot throws to first two down
08:56
95 pitches for Robbie Ray quite
09:00
possibly his last inning of work
09:02
Turner fly ball right field he has
09:04
back still going back onto the warning
09:07
track he'll catch it out number
09:10
three Robbie Ray retires to sign in
09:12
order well done there she saw the
09:15
smiles from Robbie Ray in the
09:16
dugout so I do believe close to a
09:18
hundred pitches did his job today we
09:20
have reached the moment of truth
09:22
the bottom of the ninth inning Giants
09:24
three Cubs one Carson Kelly first up
09:27
against Ryan Walker
09:29
hit since the fourth inning single
09:40
up the middle for Carson Kelly and
09:41
here come the Cubs pull off another
09:43
comeback here in the ninth on the
09:45
ground is short Adamas there's one
09:47
double play two down in the ninth
09:52
that's big time so two outs Giants
09:55
one out away from a win and a
09:57
series win here in Chicago on the
09:59
ground Chapman picks it the ball game
10:04
is over and the Giants take the
10:07
series from the Cubs
