01:21you look see later and Contreras
01:24has gone deep again one nothing
01:27comes the early damage the Cubs

01:31outscored significantly the first
01:33couple innings of their games
01:34this year this is three
01:35consecutive starts in which
01:37Wilson Contreras has hit a home
01:39run ninety nine on the black two
01:43strikeouts and after the homer
01:45Rizzo left shaking his head
01:47three two swing and a miss struck
01:53him out already is gone that's a
01:55big out and now if he can get rid
01:58of the pitcher he'll strand the
02:00two runners big swing and a miss
02:04Williams gets out of it first to
02:06reach and then Williams gets the
02:08next three in a row good work Jay
02:12Hay swings bare ball inside first
02:15Hayward racing around first on his
02:18way to second here's the throw
02:20it's offline that's a double for
02:23Jay Hay David's average down to
02:25107 with a home run and two runs
02:29batted in three two swing and a
02:32liner ripped out of the left
02:34center that'll touch down at the
02:36base of the wall Hayward in to
02:38score Bodie to second and it's
02:41two nothing that was ripped 0 and
02:44two to the pitcher and a feeble

02:50the top the pitch did he go yes
02:55he did half upset it himself
02:57that's two check swing strikeouts
02:59in as many trips Cubs handed their
03:01lead it's two nothing Wilson
03:03Contreras up to it how about this
03:06first time in his career that he's
03:08homered in three straight games
03:12that's hammered to center look out
03:14already it back he's done it
03:18again two jacks on the day for
03:21Wilson that was stung to center
03:24three nothing let's go like he's
03:27at a driving range or something
03:29absolutely demolishing the
03:31baseball I think you know if
03:44nothing else if the starting thing
03:46doesn't work out for me then it
03:48being a really good high leverage
03:52bullpen guys two on one out and
03:55Javiol for one in the air left
03:59field that one on its way and the
04:05Cubs unloading yeah Baez a three
04:09run check and it is six to
04:11nothing OK in the year left field
04:19rolling out Baez the call and the
04:21grab as a Golden Glover got a
04:23great jump on that one nine in a
04:26row set down by Trevor Williams
04:28and here is Kazmar 12 years 206
04:32days since his last big league
04:34game family in attendance tip of
04:36the cap you talk about a story of
04:38persistence here it is I know
04:41find a way to get on here and
04:42then you make things a little more
04:43interesting for him waited a long
04:45time for this a B and a hanger
04:51from Williams gets him into the
04:53count there are goose bumps in
04:55Chicago and not just because it's
04:57cold all those minor league bus
05:00rides all those minor league games
05:05and here he is back in the show
05:07at Wrigley Field against the Cubs
05:09his first plate appearance it
05:11turned into a single against CC
05:14Sabathia and as Brian Sitker said
05:18this morning calling Sean Kazmar
05:20to tell him that you're coming
05:21back to the major leagues maybe
05:23the greatest moment he's ever
05:24had as a manager I was going to
05:26say when you're in the minors you
05:27get to tell the guys but when
05:28you're have as much respect as
05:31you do for Sean and you get a
05:32chance to tell a kid after 12
05:34years the all time Gwinnett
05:36leader in games played hits at
05:38bats and RB eyes.
05:40Sixteen hundred seventy career
05:42games.
05:43Sean's mom and wife apparently
05:47left to go to the concourse to
05:49buy blankets.
05:50It's so cold and they almost missed
05:52his pitch it appeared.
05:53Classic cut back.
05:54Sharply hit but out to second the
05:56flip to second for Ron on the
05:57first and it is in time and a
06:00double play retires aside that
06:03will still be one of the great
06:04moments for Sean Kazmar he's back
06:05in the show and the Braves down
06:06six plug in another southpaw
06:07they have five of them out there
06:08in the pan.
06:09No.
06:10Rizzo goes the other way and it's
06:11a single into left field he
06:12beats the ship.
06:14So man it's scoring position.
06:16Three one down.
06:18That's ripped left field.
06:19Ozuna back turning.
06:21Another homer and it's eight
06:23nothing.
06:24KB is fourth of the season in his
06:25eighth extra base hit.
06:27If he were to take his base.
06:46In the air out towards left
06:48center.
06:50That's well struck.
06:51That's back there.
06:52Gone.
06:53He's struck that's back there.
06:56And Boney will touch him all.
06:59Fifth of the day that comes
07:01unloading at home.
07:04How about it.
07:07John hit to a double play as
07:09Acuna lightning bolt into left
07:11field Peterson has to play that
07:12on a big hop and Acuna with a
07:15loud single keeps that hitting
07:16streak alive.
07:17It's at nine and counting in
07:212020 double play ball to short
07:23there's one there's two guys
07:25who get a run out of it as a
07:27Cunha scores Freeman will go to
07:30third no RBI that's the penalty
07:33for hitting into the double play
07:34for Darnell mind and that's a
07:39fair ball that'll bang off the
07:42side wall Rizzo it gets past to
07:45Cunha Rizzo around second on his
07:48way to third and he'll slide in
07:51second.
07:51That's hammered to left that one
07:53on its way.
07:57See later.
07:58KB has gone yard again.
08:01Bryant will touch him off for the
08:02second time his fifth of the
08:04year and it is all Cubs 13 one.
08:12That one's off Chris Bryant into
08:13right field takes a funny hop
08:14Adrianza takes a peek at Ron
08:18Washington and with Peterson
08:19chugging toward the corner
08:20slowly.
08:20Adrianza will make the turn and
08:21make it all the way to third
08:22base.
08:22So Shelby Miller greeted rudely
08:23here in the seventh.
08:24Braves have the leadoff man
08:25aboard.
08:26Riley hits one toward right Peterson
08:28battles the sun and the wind now
08:30adjusts makes the catch on the
08:32track.
08:32Adrianza is going to come home and
08:33score and on a sacrifice fly
08:35Austin Riley is in the RBI
08:37column his first of the year.
08:38And that makes it 13 to two and
08:53it's a missile up the middle for
08:55a base hit so first and second
08:59for Atlanta with two out looper
09:04into left field that's going to
09:05get down for a base hit that's
09:07going to score to Freddie Freeman
09:09goes first to third on a base
09:11hit from Marcelo Zuna and the
09:14Braves have runs three and four
09:16in the game and still have only
09:18two outs on the ground Duffy
09:24fields fires on the move ball
09:27game Cubs win and the offense
09:30explodes 13 runs on 14 hits six
09:35home runs a W in D.
