01:29Verlander first face the Cubs way

01:32back in 2006 here was the line one

01:35Pierre Todd Walker around as

01:37Ramirez Phil Nevin was in the

01:39lineup that is in their outside

01:42corner with a fastball at 96

01:44miles an hour strikes recall on

01:47the hill tonight for the Cubs will

01:48be the left hander Matthew Boyd

01:506'3 225 pounder he's 35 years of

01:54age he's in his ninth year at the

01:55big league level so what he has

01:56done at 25 games this year we know

01:58pitch and that's too high and

02:02here's their slugger at the plate

02:03they need him to get going

02:05Raphael Devers on the ground

02:07Horner picks it up to second for

02:09one on the first two four six three

02:14endeavors not exactly busting it down

02:16the line kind of fatalistic the way

02:18he broke it down like no one had

02:20beaten this out that's her strike

02:22three and the inning is over Boyd

02:25strikes out Adamas Giants got off

02:27to a good start this year they were

02:29actually tied for first the day

02:32before they made the Devers deal

02:34Wilmer high drive left field out of

02:40here Giants are on the board

02:42Wilmer with home run number 14

02:45Wilmer lay in the bushes definitely

02:47lay in the bushes he was looking

02:48one speed one location and he gets

02:52a fastball middle end just above

02:54the knee and he goes down digs it

02:57out now there's a check swing by

02:58Chapman and he'll know no swing and

03:01it's a walk Chapman draws a walk

03:04following the Flores home run and

03:07the walk to Chapman runner at first

03:09with one out and here is Luis Matos

03:11and Matos he has been a hot hitter

03:14high down the line fair or foul it is

03:20fouled and caught and tagging is

03:23Chapman have to go Glover so that

03:26shouldn't surprise you although

03:28Matos is thinking that he may have

03:30trapped that one off the screen and

03:32they're gonna look at it if it hits

03:34the screen on the way down it's a

03:37dead ball I couldn't tell if it hit

03:39the ball did it hit the net therefore

03:41it is a foul ball Paul's overturned

03:46runner back to first base

03:51so yo you and Patrick job well done

03:54you can go home you've done your job

03:56tonight

03:57swing and a ball drilled out towards

03:59left center Pete Crowe Armstrong back

04:01here's the 0-2 pitch the runner goes

04:04there's the ball up and away the

04:06throw down to second base to slide

04:07chief head first slide there by

04:09Chapman pretty strong throw by Carson

04:13Kelly well he had a pretty good

04:15indication as to what Shaw was going to

04:18do it's either that or he was going on

04:20first movement swing and a miss

04:21strike three got him on a high fastball

04:23for later has never struck out Matt

04:26Shaw so a strikeout here and he

04:28could add to the list got him

04:30added to the list nine hundred

04:32ninety seven you can do it I know

04:34you know we got a guy and a girl

04:37it's a little guy you're trying to

04:38get into the picture get your hand

04:41on me grandpa wasn't digging it

04:47but you're in you're in my space

04:50your best way by camera time kid

04:52I think they go like change one

04:55Cubs nothing here in the third

04:56Berlander throwing the ball well

04:58touches this one softly Thomas

05:00wisely waits on a good up to down

05:03that comes a free agent at the end

05:04of the year and he'll command a

05:06big payday swing and a line drive

05:08at a base hit out of the right

05:10center so Tucker with a two out

05:12knock just trying to build off

05:14what he did over the weekend in

05:16Anaheim when a guy is throwing

05:19one off speed pitch after another

05:22eventually won't the hitters say

05:23why even look for something else the

05:26pitch taken high ball for upset two

05:30men on with two down and it brings

05:32up Pete Crow Armstrong he with eighty

05:35two runs batted in he would love to

05:37add to that total right about now

05:39motto is playing deep and right and a

05:42swing and a miss strike three got him

05:43to chase the slider pulled out of the

05:46dirt by Bailey is PCA sprints toward

05:49first and Bailey throws to first base

05:51completes the put out a major major

05:54run producer eighty three runs batted

05:57in Ron and he's had some struggles

05:59this year strike three call fastball

06:03got him at the knees seem to surprise

06:05Devers a little bit that's a strikeout

06:08for Matthew Boyd and Thomas in the

06:10first year of a big free agent

06:12contract that he signed swing and a

06:15miss strike three ends the inning run

06:16three innings so far there have been

06:19ten strikeouts five for each team

06:21high pop up first base side

06:24Montos coming in Devers going out

06:26Schmidt sprinting over and Schmidt

06:28what a catch basket style and then

06:32stumbling down he had some closing

06:35speed there he came from out of

06:37nowhere and caught it basket style

06:40kind of bobbled it and grabbed it in

06:43his glove that was just a tremendous

06:46play by Schmidt half now and Ian rips

06:50one into the right field corner and

06:53this will be extra bases half cruises

06:56into second and it's a double for

06:58Ian it's that in the air right field

07:01Montos makes the catch half full tag

07:04look at his numbers he's not striking

07:07people out at the rate you're accustomed

07:10to seeing but the one thing to keep

07:12in mind his fifth is fielding

07:14independent pitching is way below

07:16his ERA so he's had some some bad

07:19luck it would seem runner goes

07:21line drive base hit left field

07:24Swanson doesn't stop by his way to

07:26third and he's in Matt Shaw RBI

07:29single we're tied up one and one and

07:32he stays high

07:37this one falling left field and it

07:40falls for a hit hit PCA sprinting

07:43for second and he's out fairly

07:50convinced that he was safe and

07:52we'll find out the Cubs are going

07:55to challenge here or not they're

07:56going to look at it well you do

07:58once that ball got loose and left

08:00there's no way he was going to

08:01stop at first base come on you the

08:03call on the field is overturned

08:05runner safe and they felt that that

08:09thing would be overturned and it was

08:10so let's see if the Cubs can take

08:12advantage here comes Carson Kelly to

08:14the plate

08:14line drive base hit right field

08:17here comes Pete Crow Armstrong

08:19throw to the plate

08:20too late PCA is in Carson Kelly comes

08:24through and it is 2-1 Cubs

08:27to expect them on June 14th to be

08:31tied for first place with the Dodgers

08:34that was surprising where they are

08:36now I feel like feels about right

08:38yeah five games below 500 and he

08:41belts one down the left field line

08:42hooking toward the corner that

08:44ball is a fair ball coming around

08:46third Montrose in the score and the

08:49Giants have tied it and now he's in

08:51scoring position here's Devers to

08:52try and get him home

08:53Devers a little flip job to left

08:57it's gonna fall and the Giants take the

09:01lead

09:01yes Cubs pitchers have thrown the

09:03the fewest number of pitches in the

09:06majors this season

09:07pitchers have confidence in throwing

09:08strikes and attacking the hitters

09:11high and deep to left and out of here

09:15Boyd tried to sneak a fastball by him

09:18and boom five to two Giants runner

09:23takes off that one grounded diving

09:25play by Swanson seat of his pants and

09:28he throws out Devers Wow that is a

09:32heck of a play yeah put a big

09:34exclamation point on that one

09:36didn't be Swanson it's a brilliant

09:38play in the seat of his pants he

09:40gets Devers again not selling out at

09:43all going down the line and the Cubs

09:48are down to their last chance

09:50we're in the ninth inning two down

09:52and the rookie Owen Casey will try

09:55to get on in some manner so that

09:57Kyle Tucker could represent the

10:00tying talent in game one of the
