00:30Right before the game gets underway.
00:32Roberts moved Mookie Betts back into the leadoff spot nine days ago.
00:36Look at it.
00:37Right three right at the top of the zone to lock up Betts.
00:40That is some kind of location.
00:42Betts retired.
00:43Ohtani up.
00:44Double and two walks yesterday.
00:45And scored his 100th run of the season before anybody else in the National League reached 80.
00:51Kick swing.
00:52He went.
00:52No appeal needed.
00:53That swing in itself should tell you how soon Ohtani gets started.
00:58But regardless of the pitcher on the mound, that pitch was nowhere close to the plate.
01:02And he was already around before it arrived.
01:04So two down.
01:05And here's Will Smith.
01:06Payoff pitch.
01:07Swing and a miss.
01:08He struck him out.
01:09And Nick Lodolo strikes out the side to open the ballgame.
01:13I hope these folks like good pitching.
01:1512 strikeouts against the Twins last week for Tyler Grasnow.
01:19Here's one away.
01:20McClain right-handed batter.
01:21221 hitter.
01:23His brother Sean is in the Dodgers system.
01:25Two gone.
01:27Fastball blazes in there.
01:28That's his first strikeout of the night.
01:30Comes in a two-seamer.
01:31And McClain watches it.
01:33Ellie De La Cruz the batter.
01:35Shortstop switch hitter batting left-handed.
01:37Big right-hander's payoff.
01:39Swung on.
01:39And that is a soft-line drive to Mookie Betts.
01:42Near the second base back.
01:43He'll make the catch on the side.
01:44Retired in order.
01:46Freddie Freeman starts the second for the Dodgers.
01:48No base runners in this game until now.
01:51First pitch of the second inning.
01:52Freeman turns it around and singles into center.
01:55On base streak for Freddie Freeman.
01:57Quietly has reached 15 games.
01:58And out to Oscar Hernandez.
02:00Two more hits.
02:01Two runs batted in in the first game of this series.
02:04Check.
02:04Swing.
02:05Did he go?
02:06Yes!
02:06Strike three.
02:07He went out for the curveball down.
02:09Yes, he did.
02:10That is four strikeouts already for Nick Lodolo.
02:13Now Andy Pajas.
02:14He was three for four last night.
02:16He has strikeouts for his first five outs here tonight.
02:20Good fastball to Betts.
02:22Good one to Will Smith.
02:23And another to Pajas in that situation.
02:25Tommy Edmund is up.
02:27Batting from the right side against the lefty Lodolo.
02:30Drives the ball the other way.
02:31Frehley's going back on it towards the corner.
02:33This ball's got a chance and it's gone!
02:36Tommy Edmund opposite field power.
02:39For a two-run blast!
02:41Sore ankle and home.
02:43And in Great American Small Park.
02:45That's what you envision when you come into this park.
02:47Is the ball flying out of here.
02:48First home run since the 19th of July against Milwaukee.
02:53280.
02:5310 homers.
02:5441 driven in for Austin Hayes.
02:56He has hit safely in four of his last five games.
02:59And he went around on a curveball.
03:02Couldn't hold up.
03:02And Hayes strikes out.
03:03Second strikeout for Glasnow.
03:05And there's one away in the second.
03:06So back-to-back full count walks.
03:09Reds have two on for Nuelve Marte.
03:11Nothing in one pitch.
03:13Swung on.
03:13Ground ball to third.
03:14Edmunds got it.
03:14He goes to second.
03:15Rojas the turn on to first.
03:17He got it.
03:18And around the horn.
03:19Inning-ending double play.
03:20No runs.
03:21No hits.
03:21One left.
03:22No Dodger errors after two full.
03:24It's the Dodgers too.
03:25Reds nothing.
03:26And Bench is aboard.
03:27One out.
03:28One on for Shohei Ohtani.
03:29Here it is.
03:31He struck him out.
03:33How about that fastball right there?
03:35That got a lot of the plate too.
03:36Here's Will Smith.
03:37Runner goes pickoff.
03:39Skier fired to the crown.
03:40Time down to right.
03:421-3-4 on the pickoff of Mookie Betts.
03:47One down for the Dodgers in the fourth.
03:49Last time Freddie was up, he looked at the first pitch,
03:51thrown to him, and drove it on the ground up the middle for a base hit.
03:55Another 0-2.
03:57Hook to left field, and Freeman's 2-for-2 against Lodolo.
04:00This is a beautiful two-strike hit.
04:02Two outs for Pajas.
04:04Swings, and it's a high chopper to the hole.
04:07The shortstop, De La Cruz, is there.
04:09Throws low, and it's not caught by Steer.
04:11Freeman advancing to third as Pajas is safe.
04:14And a low throw from deep in the hole by De La Cruz.
04:18Not handled by Spencer Steer, the first baseman.
04:21And the Dodgers now with runners at the corners and two men out.
04:24We'll see what Tommy Edmond can do.
04:26So far, he's accounted for both runs with an opposite field home run.
04:30Bound tip on the heaters, strike three.
04:32Lodolo is punched out eight, and the Reds have a one-out base runner.
04:35Fraley had really started to heat up.
04:37Now he's gone hitless his last couple ballgames.
04:39That's in the air, right field.
04:41A rocket ride by Fraley.
04:43No downer.
04:44Over halfway up the sun deck to tie it at two.
04:48But the stuff drops off dramatically for Glastow with a runner on base.
04:52And Fraley made him pay for it that time.
04:54That ball was in the air.
04:55No chance for a double play on that one.
04:58This game is turned on a dime.
05:00That's his first homer since coming back.
05:02Two men are gone in the fourth inning.
05:04Now Noelby Marte hit into a double play.
05:06First of two that the Reds have hit into.
05:08A couple of homers to right propel the Reds in front.
05:21Boy, that was a bullet.
05:22Pitch up and away from Marte.
05:25And he hit that like a left-handed pull hitter.
05:27A laser out of here to right field.
05:29So now two are on for Otani, who has struck out twice against Lodolo.
05:34Lodolo's nine strikeouts have tied to season high.
05:37Scratch him out.
05:39First time this year, double-digit punchies for Nick Lodolo.
05:43This is the third time against Otani.
05:46He certainly is not picking up that ball very well at all.
05:48It's two on, two out.
05:49And Will Smith.
05:51Pickoff again gets by McClain.
05:54Rojas just now pops up.
05:56Betts easily fills in at second.
05:59A bounce throw in second and third.
06:01Three-two strike three called.
06:03Got him looking with a backdoor breaking ball.
06:06Crows will Smith.
06:07Eleven strikeouts for Nick Lodolo.
06:10After the leadoff double by Trevino,
06:12Glasnow has walked back-to-back batters to end his night.
06:16Dave Roberts is on his way to the mound.
06:18It is Jack Dreyer being summoned from the Dodger bullpen.
06:21Pitching change made in the bottom of the fifth with nobody out.
06:24He will get De La Cruz here with the bases loaded.
06:28And nobody out.
06:30Swing and a bouncing ball left side.
06:32Sliding stop.
06:33Edmund goes to second one.
06:34No chance to get Elliott first.
06:36Trevino's home from third.
06:38And it's four to two Reds.
06:39That is a big league play at third base by Tommy Edmund.
06:43He saved at least one run by the nice sliding catch to his left.
06:48Swing and there's a soft tapper back to the pitcher.
06:51Catcher Smith waves off the pitcher.
06:53Dreyer, no play.
06:55Everybody's safe.
06:55Luck stays put at third base.
06:58It's a big moment in this game.
07:00Reds have gotten one.
07:01Jack Dreyer's trying to keep the Dodgers within striking distance.
07:04Fly to right.
07:05Not deep.
07:06Hernandez moves over to the line.
07:08Luck's tags.
07:10Won't advance.
07:12Two gone.
07:12Wise decision.
07:14That'll be it for Jack Dreyer.
07:16Ben Kasparis got ready in a hurry.
07:17And he'll come on for the right-handed batting, Spencer Steer.
07:21He's a right-hander that gets Spencer Steer.
07:23With the bases loaded, two outs.
07:25And the pitch.
07:26Swung on and missed.
07:27Strike three.
07:28Got him with a high fastball.
07:30And Kasparis comes in and pours water on the fire.
07:34One as Nick Lodolo returns the mound.
07:36Lodolo has punched out 11th.
07:38Wasn't shy of his career high so far tonight.
07:40Bounced to first.
07:41Good glove by Steer.
07:44And it looks like that's going to be all for Lodolo.
07:46Lodolo, 94 pitches, one out in the sixth.
07:50Clap from Francona.
07:51That's all for the Southpaw.
07:53The crowd lets him hear it.
07:55Nice warm ovation for Lodolo as he exits.
07:58One out, two on.
08:00Tying runs aboard.
08:01When you wake up and you're pitching against the Dodgers,
08:04this is the guy that you worry about.
08:06And he is at the plate with a chance to do some damage.
08:094-2 ball game, one out.
08:11Here's the 1-2.
08:13Bang and a miss.
08:14He struck him out.
08:15Now, four punch-outs tonight for Otani.
08:19Two down.
08:21Slider down and in, and Otani right over the top of it.
08:25That was wicked.
08:26And now, Will Smith, who does not have a three-strikeout game all year.
08:30He's already got two Ks on his ledger.
08:31Flair in the left.
08:33Lux is coming on.
08:35Plays it on a bounce, and Conforto will score.
08:384-3 game.
08:39Will Smith with a two-out hit to score Conforto.
08:43All three for the Dodgers tonight have come with two outs.
08:46And now Freddie Freeman, who's got two hits himself.
08:49Tying run at second in the form of Mookie Betts.
08:51Go ahead, run at first, Will Smith.
08:52Shot to left field.
08:54That is a base hit for Freddie Freeman, and the game is tied.
08:58Throw goes into third.
09:00Betts scores 4-4.
09:02Third hit for Freddie tonight.
09:04First one up the middle.
09:05Second one was a pitch away.
09:07Drops into left field.
09:08This is a cutter in on the hands.
09:10Beautiful job.
09:11Ties this game.
09:13Two outs.
09:14Tie ball game starting the ninth inning.
09:164-4.
09:17Michael Conforto will lead it off, rather, batting in the ninth spot.
09:21Conforto takes ball 4.
09:24Lead off walk.
09:25Go ahead, run reaches to open the 9.
09:27Off of the bench and on base twice.
09:30James Altman is going to go out and run for him,
09:32so they'll get some better speed on the base paths.
09:35So Altman will represent the go-ahead run here.
09:37One guard.
09:38Otani with a four-strikeout game comes up to the plate.
09:42The 2-2.
09:43Swing and a fly ball right field.
09:44Going back is Joe.
09:45He's there.
09:46He's got it.
09:47Back to first base.
09:48Altman, two down.
09:49Otani 0-5 tonight.
09:51And Will Smith, who drove in a run with a base hit in the seventh,
09:54comes up with two down.
09:56And Altman, the go-ahead run on base.
09:58Drilled towards the left field corner.
10:00That's headed for the wall.
10:01And it's off it.
10:02James Altman's on his horse.
10:04Giving the wave.
10:05Here he comes.
10:06He'll score.
10:08Dodgers lead in the ninth.
10:10And it's Will Smith again.
10:13Numbing consistency.
10:15Numbing greatness.
10:17The Dodger catcher, Will Smith, puts him ahead of the nine.
10:21And that's one of the reasons that Dave Roberts elected to have a little faster runner, that being Altman.
10:26Go from ahead to behind to ahead again with three in a row here in the late innings.
10:31It's Alex Vestia, who's got three saves.
10:34Looking for his first one, though, since early June.
10:37Reds are down to their final out.
10:38That's the ball game.
10:40Alex Vestia with a 1-2-3-9.
10:43Five two-out runs for the offense and five scoreless for the bullpen.
10:48Five to four, the final score.
10:50Five to four, the final score.
