00:38and a curveball struck him out

00:40swinging beauty broke right off the

00:42outside corner sharp Goodman's the

00:45big dog in this lineup 30 home runs

00:47and that ball is hit well the left

00:49field's got a chance to fly and it's

00:51gone Hunter Goodman with his 31st

00:55of the year and the Rockies with an

00:58early lead against Verlander the wind

01:00is blowing out to left that help but

01:02that was a great swing as well by

01:04Hunter Goodman got behind the count

01:06just hung in there a breaking ball

01:08curveball right over the middle of

01:09plate that he hung a little bit and

01:11Hunter Goodman took advantage coming

01:13going on as Ramos he makes the catch the

01:15left fielder to end the top of the

01:18first a Goodman homer gives Colorado an

01:20early one nothing lead the fourth time

01:23this year that Freeland has faced the

01:26Giants and it's his 31st start of the

01:28year he wants to go out there on a good

01:31positive note and in this season as

01:36saying okay I got through all of my

01:38starts because I think that's huge one

01:40two pitch swing and a miss got him with

01:42a high fastball good start for Kyle

01:46Freeland one nothing Rockies second

01:49inning Brent Doyle leads off of the

01:50Rockies from center fielder and that

01:53ball is smoked to deep left field that

01:55one's got a chance to get out and will

01:57in a hurry Brent Doyle's 15th of the

02:00year and it's the same pitch of breaking

02:02ball this one was in the middle of the

02:04play Doyle did not miss it that was loud

02:08got to feel great for Brent Doyle has

02:10been struggling another solo shot for

02:12the Rockies to nothing Colorado take

02:16that memory with him into the offseason

02:18great first inning for Kyle Freeland a

02:20one two three and two fly outs to

02:22center then a strikeout of Adamas and

02:24he threw only eight pitches back in

02:26that first inning

02:26so Chapman takes the wall

02:28leadoff walk here's Wilmer Flores

02:31line drive into right field base hit one

02:34off to Fernandez over the second goes

02:37Chapman and it brings up Casey Schmidt

02:39the Giants on a business now two men on

02:41nobody out trailing to nothing

02:43center field hit well

02:47going to bat and just like that the

02:53Giants take the lead home run for

02:56Smith his 12th one thing that Casey

03:00Schmidt can do and he can beat the

03:02inside pitch he's got such a good

03:04bent elbow approach that digs out

03:08pitches that barrels of that really

03:10would jam other right handed hitters

03:12Casey Schmidt hit that four hundred

03:14and twenty two feet it left his

03:15bat at one hundred five miles an

03:16hour that ball was struck an

03:19infield hit for Goodman that would

03:20have been an incredible play by

03:22Matt Chapman and he was right along

03:24the line and he shot on that field

03:26when he threw that ball and it was

03:28there in time but his low throw Devers

03:31just could not handle it Devers still

03:33learning how to play that position

03:36couldn't pick up the short hop

03:38throw there's Blaine Krim the inning

03:43is over fourth strikeout for

03:45Verlander and a shutdown inning for

03:46him two down nobody on Giants I had

03:48three to two Casey Schmidt who homered

03:50over the centerfield wall with two men

03:52going on three run homer back in the

03:54second inning two two swing and a

03:56miss Freeland got him with a curve

03:58ball nine straight retired by Kyle

04:01Freeland slider away and Ritter's

04:04out on strikes for the second time

04:07to Verlander so two down and here's

04:09the leadoff man Tovar Tovar lifts

04:12it to left field got a little carry

04:14to it got a lot of carry to it and

04:16oh my goodness a circuitous route by

04:19Ramos and Tovar is going to end up at

04:22third he gets his fourth triple of

04:25the year and for Ramos who is rated

04:29as one of the worst left fielders

04:32defensively in the game he struggled

04:36with the wind and the sun on that

04:38one and he throws a slider off the

04:40outside ball form and of course he

04:43really did not want to let Goodman

04:45beat him now the question is when

04:46you go down that path you got to make

04:48sure that the next guy does not beat

04:50you got him fixed exactly what he

04:53wanted to do and that'll end the

04:55inning and that strategy pitching

04:57around Goodman indeed has paid off

05:00sixth inning is upon us with the

05:01Rockies down 3-2 here and Justin

05:04Verlander back to work having thrown

05:0678 pitches this point the game

05:0853 of those for strikes strikeout

05:11number seven again tilt perfect

05:14location Fernandez one for two swing

05:17and a line drive to the second baseman

05:19Casey Schmidt three up three down and

05:23we'll see if that's going to be the end

05:25of the day for Verlander he's right

05:27around 90 pitches no one fields their

05:30position better than Kyle Freeland among

05:33pitchers in baseball great athletic

05:35maneuver there by Kyle Freeland come

05:37off the mound he grabbed that ball almost

05:39on the foul line up the third base side

05:41and makes the play Ramos heads to

05:43second number two down here comes Matt

05:45Chapman ground ball hit weakly toward

05:48third Carol's has that flips it over to

05:50first base just in time to get the out

05:52another terrific inning for Kyle Freeland

05:54two gone and that'll bring up Devers

05:57Devers is 0 for 3 Devers in the center

06:01field and dive and he gets by the center

06:04field and Doyle here comes Kisner

06:08Devers has got a double in the Giants' hand on

06:12that's the risk you take he sells out on a

06:16dive but there's risk and once it got by

06:20Doyle is an easy score for Kisner I get

06:23the point of you know trying to keep that

06:26ball in front but with a guy like

06:28Brenton aggressiveness with two outs you

06:30don't ever want to take that away Ryan

06:32Walker comes in 68th appearance on the

06:34year five and seven three nine eight ERA

06:37with 60 strikeouts and 61 innings facing

06:40Jordan back this ball's well hit left

06:43center field it's got legs it's gonna

06:45fly Rockies within a run number 16 for

06:50Beck that snapped at 0 for 17 for Jordan

06:55with 10 strikeouts you can hear it off

06:58the bat to 432 feet just like that

07:03your cushion your two-run cushion has

07:05been cut half so here is Doyle he's got

07:09power he hit a home run earlier this

07:12is to right Gilbert on the moves not

07:14going to be able to get there it's a

07:16fair ball kicks around for a moment

07:18Doyle will stop at second tying run

07:21in scoring position nobody out and

07:25we've been talking about this for the

07:26last two months you leave these

07:28Rockies hanging around they're going

07:30to play twenty seven outs and give

07:31themselves a chance Doyle does move to

07:34the third tying run ninety feet

07:37closer to everybody's squaring the

07:39ball up so far against Walker and

07:42here comes Kyle Karras ball for first

07:47and third Bernabeu coming up and this

07:51is Bo Mel Bob Melvin going out and

07:53they have the giant run at third

07:55the lead run at first and trying to

07:58nail this one down is Spencer

08:00Bivens got him and he gets the

08:03strikeout wow that's a sinker at 96

08:07he reaches back and throws two seams

08:09right through him and that'll be left

08:11to Ryan Ritter and the bases are

08:15loaded there's that hard two seamer

08:18that on the first pitch almost hit

08:20him even though he swung oh that

08:22really hurts you had two strikes and

08:24a guy who had not made contact yet who

08:27was looking overmatched and now he

08:29hits him with a two strike count

08:31and not only is the tying run over

08:33at third base but the go ahead

08:34run is now in scoring position as

08:36well and the leadoff man who's one

08:38of the Rockies best players and

08:40best hitters Tovar coming up Chapman

08:45Chapman

08:52give me that pop up for ground ball

08:55to a goal Glover any time to end

08:57the game final score it's the
