00:00Wade Miley said the last time out he actually felt maybe a little too good see what we get
00:06out of him today what are you looking for yeah I thought he was a little bit stiff his last time
00:10out I didn't think he was nearly as loose as he had been not only in the no-hitter but in some of
00:15the other ballgames and I would think that having the shorter start last time out he'll be back to
00:21his normal self he pitched very well against the Giants out there earlier this year let's hope for
00:26the same here tonight runner on at first one out and now Darren Ruff 3-2 sharply grounded a third
00:32backhand pick short wait a second India one relay to first wild ricochets off the railing of the
00:38dugout Gino makes a nice play on this backhand right here strong throw to India at second base
00:45see a little fumble on the exchange I don't think India had a good grip on that ball
00:51now runner at first two outs and here's Evan Longoria payoff swing and a miss with rough
00:59breaking late great depth from Miley now the bump for the Giants tonight that's 30-year-old
01:05right-hander Kevin Gossman is going to make his ninth start of his 2021 campaign he's 3-0 with a
01:10minuscule 1.84 ERA striking out guys for fun this year 59 and 53 and two-thirds innings pitch
01:17and he's been pretty stingy with the walks as well with only 12. Castellanos four for seven
01:23with a couple of walks and a home run so far so he's been on base six out of nine
01:30plate appearances in the series here it comes he struck him out with the splitter that had
01:37movement running in here's Suarez got him and that'll end the inning a couple of strikeouts
01:45to shut down the Reds here in the first here's Stevenson here's the stretch for the one-two pitch
01:50and it's on the way fastball right at the knees struck him out looking here's Barnhart
01:55Cosman slows it down Dubon's got it and he throws him out a nice play
02:02as a pitcher your first reaction always try to knock the ball down and that probably would have
02:08been a much easier play for Dubon had he not deflected it but did a nice job of readjusting
02:14himself going back to the ball and then he has one play and that's a bare hand throw across his body
02:19and does a great job here's Slater here it comes swing and there's a liner to first it's knocked down
02:27by Stevenson he picks it up behind the bag makes the underhanded flip to Miley covering and it's too late
02:32to get the speedy Austin Slater and Miley standing with his hands on his hips
02:37I think he thought they got Slater out
02:41and you give yourself a chance score to pass them off the end of the bat one hop in between
02:47you're right he got in front of it like you're supposed to do but
02:50went over put the glove down and then the transfer to the hand made it a little bit longer play might
02:56have been just what it took for Austin Slater to get in there Buster Posey singled up the middle
03:01this first time grounded left side tries to advance glove by Suarez one foot and throw there in time
03:08Posey the final out for the Giants here in the third they will strand one Akiyama waits on Gaussman he's hitting 261
03:17delivers splitter struck him out swinging that was the classic came in like a strike and then just
03:24plummeted downward like it were going over the top of Vernal Falls in Yosemite
03:31Gaussman pitches
03:32swing and a miss he struck it out leadoff man Jesse Winker that splitter off rough he grabs
03:41it and Gaussman's there and that's all for Winker wow we'll see right here what happened off the bat
03:48it's a split takes a funky hop he goes to his backhand probably got on him a little quicker and he thought
03:53but does a nice job of a little pirouette making a throw on the run that's not an easy play with Gaussman moving
04:00but he let him just perfectly Gaussman on the bag where he should be
04:04just a nice play all around way to stay with it because that ball hits the ground off the glove it can have a spin either way
04:12so here's Suarez
04:16that ball into left field back Tauchman at the wall he leaps he's got it
04:24Castellanos turns around well this is center field playing left field it's the best outfield for the Giants right here
04:30Tauchman goes back does a nice job gets a great jump sizes up the wall and then makes a perfect timed jump
04:38it goes up high points it wow what a great catch
04:45that is all for Stevenson and the ending is over six strikeouts for Gaussman so here is Tauchman
04:55base hit to left field and Dubon is off and running Winker comes up throwing Dubon scores the ball is cut off
05:03and the second base and Tauchman is out at second India made the tag
05:08but the Giants have a 1-0 lead
05:10this inning is a giant fulcrum inning got to take your shot against Gaussman and the Reds have two on with one out and here's Jonathan India
05:18Splitter
05:20Longoria one to first
05:22two a double play and the side is retired
05:25is retired Kevin Gaussman's been good once again has he has been all year once again going six innings pitched
05:31every start this year
05:32he's gone at least six innings and eight strikeouts that's a thousand and one career strikeouts he is not giving Wade Miley any room for error
05:41so here's Suarez
05:43and he throws one up in Longoria is on the backhand and his throw is perfect
05:50what a play to open up the bottom of the seventh inning by Evan Longoria
05:54oh and how nice it is to have a strong arm of a Longoria to the backhand
06:00Suarez over the top
06:02going away from him turns and fires a BB across the diamond
06:07to get Suarez by a step
06:10guys good over there
06:12here's a tough spot Buster Posey
06:15five grand slams on his career
06:18Buster it's a high fly ball the left
06:22hit well into the gap
06:23it's up against the wall
06:25one run's going to score
06:26two runs are going to score
06:28three runs are going to score
06:30as Buster Posey clears the bases
06:32a three-run double for Buster Posey
06:36and the Giants have a four-nothing lead
06:39so the last man standing is Tucker Barnhart
06:42bounced on the ground and this is going to do it
06:45rough goes to the bag and the Giants have won the first three games in the series
06:50they've also won four in a row and they're now 11 games over the 500 mark
06:55and what a nice performance a little scary at the end as it always is
07:00but it's always led by starting pitching and that was the case against the night with Kevin Gosman
07:07the Buster Posey
07:11for the next two is the Buster Posey
07:13and the Duster Posey
