00:13And on the ground to third Riley's got it plays Patty Kaye and throws a strike.

00:18And that's when Max Freed Jeff is at his best he's going to get his strikeouts but he is a terrific ground ball pitcher too.

00:25And it's served in the right but Acuna good job and he can't hang on.

00:31Bichette around first big turn Acuna throws back to first and they got it.

00:36Bichette's going to stand at first and appeal this play he thought he got the hand back.

00:41Acuna with a strike to Freddie Freeman he applied the tag the call at first is out let's see if he was.

00:50A little bit of a slip.

00:52Tag on the collarbone and Bichette said he was safe.

00:55See here.

00:56And he is out.

00:57Base is empty.

00:58He jumps on the first pitch roller toward third.

01:01Riley's throw is on the money.

01:04Max Freed breezes through the first inning with a little help from the cannon of Ronald Acuna Jr. in right.

01:10Yeah Jim Ryu make his seventh start of the season he's coming off his second win last time out against Oakland.

01:16He returned out the eye and that strained glute muscle.

01:20And he gets Acuna swinging to begin the bottom of the first.

01:25Freddie Freeman first pitch swinging pops one up for Bichette and quickly two down.

01:31Here's a bouncer to third.

01:33Biggio will play it the short way to force the lead runner.

01:36And that'll be that one inning in the books in Atlanta no score.

01:40This kind of work for the Braves starting pitching staff now takes on added importance with the bad news we got on Mike Soroka today.

01:46Exploratory surgery is required for Mike.

01:49Something not quite right he says with the Achilles.

01:53As Biggio drives one toward left center.

01:56And it's going to be Pache.

01:58He makes the play.

01:59Swing and a miss.

02:00Max Freed has his first strikeout.

02:03First strikeout.

02:04No score in the bottom of the third.

02:06It'll be Pache, Freed and Acuna for the Braves during the third inning.

02:10And he makes quick work of Pache for his fourth strikeout of the night already.

02:15You know what Ryu.

02:16I mean he'll carve up this part of the lineup.

02:18Ryu just thirty five pitches so far.

02:21And the 0-2 will get him swinging.

02:23He strikes out Freeman on three pitches.

02:26Five strikeouts through three scoreless innings for Ryu.

02:30Max Freed has faced the minimum through his first three frames with a strikeout.

02:35And he pulled a string on him.

02:37A curveball.

02:38Back to back strikeouts for Max Freed.

02:41And Simeon limps back to the Toronto dugout.

02:43See the sharp break.

02:45That spin rate for Max.

02:47Way up there.

02:48Gets him out front.

02:49For reasons we do not know at this moment.

02:54Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is using a Marcel Ozuna bat in this game.

02:58Maybe saw him hit a home run with it and stole it.

03:01Could be.

03:021-1 pitch.

03:03Fly ball hit toward left.

03:05How about that.

03:06Ozuna's bat.

03:07And Ozuna makes the catch.

03:09And that retires the side.

03:11Freed rolling along.

03:12We're still scoreless.

03:13William Contreras leading off the fifth inning for Atlanta.

03:16Swing and a drive.

03:18No doubt about that one.

03:20How far is that going?

03:21Halfway up the bleachers.

03:23Contreras goes deep.

03:25And the Braves strike first on a lead off solo homer.

03:30Well sorry Max you no longer have the hardest ball of the night.

03:34Contreras gets a hanging chain jump and absolutely hammers it.

03:39Halfway up the left field seats.

03:42That is a long way on a cold night.

03:44Yes.

03:45With the wind blowing toward right.

03:46Second homer for Contreras.

03:48Fifth homer allowed by Ryu.

03:50And the Braves had the game's first run.

03:54The 0-2.

03:55And a swing and a miss.

03:56Ryu strikes him out again.

03:58But Atlanta takes the lead on the home run by William Contreras.

04:011-0 Braves at the end of five.

04:03Now Freed will try to mow him down here in the sixth inning.

04:06There he goes though.

04:07Swing and a miss.

04:08And no throw from Contreras.

04:10And Biggio will steal second.

04:11Two down.

04:121-2 pitch.

04:13And a curve ball hit hard to left field.

04:15And that's going to get to the fence.

04:16Biggio will come in to score easily.

04:18And Simeon is on his way to second base with an RBI double that has tied the game.

04:25Well Marcus hasn't really hit that well against breaking balls all season long.

04:30But boy he got a nice curve ball to hit right there.

04:32And remember the curve ball earlier in the bat that looked like it was just a bit out of the zone.

04:36And this one stays right over the heart of the plate and he hammers it.

04:43Fly ball hit in the air toward left center and Pache is there.

04:48Guerrero just missed.

04:50And Freed is out of the sixth inning.

04:52A lead off walk comes home to roost.

04:54Toronto's tied the game 1-1.

04:57And Luke Jackson will come on for Atlanta for the year.

05:01Luke is 1-0 with a 1-38 ERA in 14 games.

05:05And Teoscar swings at the first pitch.

05:08Sends it to deep right center field.

05:11Gone.

05:12And just like that the Blue Jays have taken the lead.

05:16How about Teoscar liking the offering he sees on the first pitch from Luke Jackson.

05:22And boy did he square it up.

05:24A couple of long home runs here in this ballgame.

05:26Contreras for the Braves.

05:27And now Teoscar hits his fourth of the season.

05:30He had a big three hit game last night.

05:33He smokes his ball.

05:34Deep center field.

05:35Now the Braves offense has to go to work against Ryu who's back out there with the lead.

05:41And this ball is lined to center but it's lined right at Randall Gritchick.

05:46And it's a 1-2-3 bottom of the seventh.

05:49What an outing denied by Hyunjin Ryu.

05:51Josh Tomlin will come on and face the Jays in the ninth inning.

05:57Teoscar gets into one.

05:58Hits it deep left field.

06:00It's gone.

06:02His second home run of the night.

06:04And it is 4-1 Blue Jays.

06:07Well we talked about a couple extra runs.

06:10And Teoscar took it into his own hands.

06:13His second home run.

06:14And the fan throws it back onto the field.

06:17But boy oh boy you talk about a big cushion coming here in the ninth.

06:22Fifth home run.

06:23Second of the night for Teoscar.

06:25And the smiles are all around.

06:27And say hello to A.J. Cole.

06:29He's now pitching out of this terrific Toronto bullpen.

06:33And now the 2-2 golf to center field.

06:36But right there is Jonathan Davis.

06:38One down.

06:39Ryu's seven innings.

06:40A run on five hits.

06:41Chat with a perfect eighth.

06:42And now Cole in the ninth.

06:45In the 0-2 Swanson reaches for it.

06:47Lifts a fly ball to center field.

06:48Lots of room for Davis.

06:50And that's the second out.

06:52First pitch from Cole.

06:53A swing and a fly ball to left.

06:55Hit fairly well.

06:56Teoscar back.

06:57He's got room.

06:58And he makes the catch.

07:00And the Blue Jays will beat the Braves for the second night in a row.

07:05A couple of home runs for Hernandez.
