00:00
Trevor Williams ready to work
00:04
and here come the Cubs Williams
00:06
hasn't thrown a strike yet still
00:08
has it Acuna four pitch walk and
00:10
we're underway let's see if
00:11
Ronald starts running early the
00:12
first pitch strikes but having a
00:14
hard time getting dialed in here
00:17
this afternoon this this group at
00:19
the top of the batting order can
00:20
really ambush you with Acuna
00:22
Freeman and Ozuna who might be
00:25
out folks we're going to they're
00:27
going to take a look and there
00:31
you go well that is what they
00:34
needed in that spot next off free
00:37
cut on and mist struck him out to
00:39
away Darno is gone that is that
00:49
and the Cubs will come up to hit
00:51
we go to the bottom of the first
00:52
did you ever think that you'd say
00:54
was car you know is pitching
00:55
better than anybody else right now
00:56
you know but right now this guy
00:58
you want out on the mound and two
00:59
starts he's been outstanding this
01:01
year strike three ninety eight
01:05
miles an hour on the black you
01:06
know off to a good start 16
01:08
strikeouts for the season and
01:10
twelve and a third innings so
01:12
here's Contreras kind of outline
01:16
yeah it's not that one's well
01:19
struck right field but couldn't
01:21
you look see later and Contreras
01:24
has gone deep again one nothing
01:27
comes the early damage the Cubs
01:30
sure could use some they've been
01:31
outscored significantly the first
01:33
couple innings of their games
01:34
this year this is three
01:35
consecutive starts in which
01:37
Wilson Contreras has hit a home
01:39
run ninety nine on the black two
01:43
strikeouts and after the homer
01:45
Rizzo left shaking his head
01:47
three two swing and a miss struck
01:53
him out already is gone that's a
01:55
big out and now if he can get rid
01:58
of the pitcher he'll strand the
02:00
two runners big swing and a miss
02:04
Williams gets out of it first to
02:06
reach and then Williams gets the
02:08
next three in a row good work Jay
02:12
Hay swings bare ball inside first
02:15
Hayward racing around first on his
02:18
way to second here's the throw
02:20
it's offline that's a double for
02:23
Jay Hay David's average down to
02:25
107 with a home run and two runs
02:29
batted in three two swing and a
02:32
liner ripped out of the left
02:34
center that'll touch down at the
02:36
base of the wall Hayward in to
02:38
score Bodie to second and it's
02:41
two nothing that was ripped 0 and
02:44
two to the pitcher and a feeble
02:47
swing and a miss for the second
02:49
out third strikeout we go back to
02:50
the top the pitch did he go yes
02:55
he did half upset it himself
02:57
that's two check swing strikeouts
02:59
in as many trips Cubs handed their
03:01
lead it's two nothing Wilson
03:03
Contreras up to it how about this
03:06
first time in his career that he's
03:08
homered in three straight games
03:12
that's hammered to center look out
03:14
already it back he's done it
03:18
again two jacks on the day for
03:21
Wilson that was stung to center
03:24
three nothing let's go like he's
03:27
at a driving range or something
03:29
absolutely demolishing the
03:31
baseball I think you know if
03:44
nothing else if the starting thing
03:46
doesn't work out for me then it
03:48
being a really good high leverage
03:52
bullpen guys two on one out and
03:55
Javiol for one in the air left
03:59
field that one on its way and the
04:05
Cubs unloading yeah Baez a three
04:09
run check and it is six to
04:11
nothing OK in the year left field
04:19
rolling out Baez the call and the
04:21
grab as a Golden Glover got a
04:23
great jump on that one nine in a
04:26
row set down by Trevor Williams
04:28
and here is Kazmar 12 years 206
04:32
days since his last big league
04:34
game family in attendance tip of
04:36
the cap you talk about a story of
04:38
persistence here it is I know
04:41
find a way to get on here and
04:42
then you make things a little more
04:43
interesting for him waited a long
04:45
time for this a B and a hanger
04:51
from Williams gets him into the
04:53
count there are goose bumps in
04:55
Chicago and not just because it's
04:57
cold all those minor league bus
05:00
rides all those minor league games
05:05
and here he is back in the show
05:07
at Wrigley Field against the Cubs
05:09
his first plate appearance it
05:11
turned into a single against CC
05:14
Sabathia and as Brian Sitker said
05:18
this morning calling Sean Kazmar
05:20
to tell him that you're coming
05:21
back to the major leagues maybe
05:23
the greatest moment he's ever
05:24
had as a manager I was going to
05:26
say when you're in the minors you
05:27
get to tell the guys but when
05:28
you're have as much respect as
05:31
you do for Sean and you get a
05:32
chance to tell a kid after 12
05:34
years the all time Gwinnett
05:36
leader in games played hits at
05:38
bats and RB eyes.
05:40
Sixteen hundred seventy career
05:42
games.
05:43
Sean's mom and wife apparently
05:47
left to go to the concourse to
05:49
buy blankets.
05:50
It's so cold and they almost missed
05:52
his pitch it appeared.
05:53
Classic cut back.
05:54
Sharply hit but out to second the
05:56
flip to second for Ron on the
05:57
first and it is in time and a
06:00
double play retires aside that
06:03
will still be one of the great
06:04
moments for Sean Kazmar he's back
06:05
in the show and the Braves down
06:06
six plug in another southpaw
06:07
they have five of them out there
06:08
in the pan.
06:09
No.
06:10
Rizzo goes the other way and it's
06:11
a single into left field he
06:12
beats the ship.
06:14
So man it's scoring position.
06:16
Three one down.
06:18
That's ripped left field.
06:19
Ozuna back turning.
06:21
Another homer and it's eight
06:23
nothing.
06:24
KB is fourth of the season in his
06:25
eighth extra base hit.
06:27
If he were to take his base.
06:46
In the air out towards left
06:48
center.
06:50
That's well struck.
06:51
That's back there.
06:52
Gone.
06:53
He's struck that's back there.
06:56
And Boney will touch him all.
06:59
Fifth of the day that comes
07:01
unloading at home.
07:04
How about it.
07:07
John hit to a double play as
07:09
Acuna lightning bolt into left
07:11
field Peterson has to play that
07:12
on a big hop and Acuna with a
07:15
loud single keeps that hitting
07:16
streak alive.
07:17
It's at nine and counting in
07:21
2020 double play ball to short
07:23
there's one there's two guys
07:25
who get a run out of it as a
07:27
Cunha scores Freeman will go to
07:30
third no RBI that's the penalty
07:33
for hitting into the double play
07:34
for Darnell mind and that's a
07:39
fair ball that'll bang off the
07:42
side wall Rizzo it gets past to
07:45
Cunha Rizzo around second on his
07:48
way to third and he'll slide in
07:51
second.
07:51
That's hammered to left that one
07:53
on its way.
07:57
See later.
07:58
KB has gone yard again.
08:01
Bryant will touch him off for the
08:02
second time his fifth of the
08:04
year and it is all Cubs 13 one.
08:12
That one's off Chris Bryant into
08:13
right field takes a funny hop
08:14
Adrianza takes a peek at Ron
08:18
Washington and with Peterson
08:19
chugging toward the corner
08:20
slowly.
08:20
Adrianza will make the turn and
08:21
make it all the way to third
08:22
base.
08:22
So Shelby Miller greeted rudely
08:23
here in the seventh.
08:24
Braves have the leadoff man
08:25
aboard.
08:26
Riley hits one toward right Peterson
08:28
battles the sun and the wind now
08:30
adjusts makes the catch on the
08:32
track.
08:32
Adrianza is going to come home and
08:33
score and on a sacrifice fly
08:35
Austin Riley is in the RBI
08:37
column his first of the year.
08:38
And that makes it 13 to two and
08:53
it's a missile up the middle for
08:55
a base hit so first and second
08:59
for Atlanta with two out looper
09:04
into left field that's going to
09:05
get down for a base hit that's
09:07
going to score to Freddie Freeman
09:09
goes first to third on a base
09:11
hit from Marcelo Zuna and the
09:14
Braves have runs three and four
09:16
in the game and still have only
09:18
two outs on the ground Duffy
09:24
fields fires on the move ball
09:27
game Cubs win and the offense
09:30
explodes 13 runs on 14 hits six
09:35
home runs a W in D.
