Transcript
01:00Back here in Houston and on the hill in this one, number 53.
01:05Chris, his strikeout rate this year among the best all time.
01:09He's truly one of the elite strikeout pitchers in the league.
01:12I mean, strikeouts per nine off the chart.
01:15So the opposing team, they know they have their work cut out for them
01:18anytime they're facing this guy or a guy like this
01:21that's going to get the swings and misses.
01:22Pretty much in a class of his own when it comes to that category.
01:25Ready to go for the last half of the inning.
01:27And now it's switch hitting third baseman Jose Ramirez.
01:32This one popped up.
01:34Foul ground first base side.
01:36And that's a foul ball.
01:42Fouled off.
01:43He was late.
01:44Cuts on it and misses.
01:52That's a strikeout.
01:54Couldn't hit the fastball at the knees.
01:57Here is Glaber Torres.
01:58And first off ring is fouled off.
02:17Swing and a high fly ball right field.
02:20Binge makes the grab for the second out.
02:29Two outs.
02:29Base is empty.
02:31Here's Jordan Alvarez.
02:33Singing.
02:33He's a guy that covers both sides of the plate.
02:37About as well as anyone in the sport.
02:40How difficult is that to do?
02:41Oh, just look at the back of my bubblegum card.
02:43You'll see how hard it is.
02:45These guys are great, man.
02:47They have the ability to look out there, but also to be able to turn on the inside pitch.
02:51Those that can really sharpen things on the outer half.
02:55And he got him.
02:56Strike three and that'll retire the side.
02:59Nothing in the Houston first.
03:02Bottom half of inning number two.
03:05And the batter will be the shortstop.
03:06Gunnar Henderson.
03:08And a foul ball.
03:09And a swing and a miss.
03:17Oh, dude.
03:23Foul ball.
03:24It stays nothing in two.
03:27But why to kick the pitch?
03:30Right through there.
03:31Got him.
03:32That K is his third of the game.
03:34Well, he's got great strikeout stuff on the mound, doesn't he?
03:37I mean, double-digit strikeouts in his last start, and he's just racking them up again in this one.
03:41This guy can really dominate a game out there.
03:44Not a fun assignment for any lineup.
03:49One out.
03:49Base is empty.
03:50Strike three, and that's two in a row.
04:08No, he's really dialed in, and this offense is going to have to do something to try to break that rhythm.
04:12Maybe it's square around the lawn, step out of the box, agitate him a little bit.
04:17Do something that just changes what's happening right now.
04:20And there's the third out.
04:22That'll do it for the unit.
04:23Nothing doing here this half.
04:25We head on down to the top.
04:28Welcome back.
04:29Last series, the pitching was not good, as we take a check of the numbers.
04:35That one to first.
04:36Isaac.
04:36And he handles it himself for the out.
04:44Griffin Conin, the next to hit.
04:48That's in there.
04:50And it's 0-1.
04:51Conin, 33 years old.
04:53He joined the team as a free agent.
04:551-1-1.
04:56Up the middle.
04:57Castro sends it to first.
05:01Two up, two down.
05:08Here's the catcher, Henry Davis.
05:14And first offering is fouled off.
05:17Popped foul out of play off to the right.
05:36And they'll do it again.
05:39Still tied at 0.
05:41Last of the third.
05:41Swing and a miss.
05:48And he's down on strikes.
05:50And good work.
05:52Bottom of the fourth.
05:53Here's the Astros leadoff man, Jose Ramirez.
06:01Right through there for a strike.
06:08Next offering is fouled back.
06:11Swing and a ball drilled in the air towards right center field.
06:19Finch takes it in for the out.
06:22One down.
06:23Here's Glaber Torres.
06:27And a breaking ball drops in for a strike.
06:33On the ground to the left.
06:35Castro.
06:37In plenty of time.
06:38The first.
06:39And Glaber Torres retired.
06:41The left group.
06:43Number 44.
06:44Yordan.
06:46Now it's Yordan Alvarez.
06:49His first at bat was a strikeout.
06:55And there's a foul ball.
07:03Now the 0-1.
07:06Swing and a high fly ball.
07:08Well struck.
07:08That's back there.
07:11Pulls it in on the warning track.
07:17So 12 up, 12 down to begin the ball game.
07:21We're tied.
07:22Nothing, nothing.
07:22Bottom of the inning.
07:23And now the shortstop, Gunnar Henderson.
07:33And that is in for a strike.
07:36It's 0-1.
07:37Well, these Astros, they're not going to be happy with the at-bats they've been having so far.
07:41We're in the back half of the game and they're still searching for a base runner.
07:44He's been great out there on the mound, no doubt.
07:46But it's also been a disappointing performance at the plate to this point.
07:50And the lead offense sat down and they're half of the fifth.
07:53Luis Robert now struck out looking his first time.
08:00And as we get deeper, it's not going to get any easier.
08:09These at-bats are going to feel more and more desperate with every out the rest of the way.
08:14And they take care of Robert for the out.
08:21Kyle Manzardo up next for the Astros.
08:26And immediately pumps in a strike to the left-handed hitter.
08:34Two down, nobody on.
08:36Last half of inning, number five.
08:38Gets a piece and stays alive.
08:48That wasn't an easy pitch to hit.
08:50It's much easier to do damage against mistakes.
08:53But that's not what that pitch was.
08:55And that just misses.
09:00This to third.
09:02He gets there with the slide.
09:03Over to first.
09:04And that's a great play for the out.
09:06So, five perfect innings in the books.
09:10And we still have no score.
09:15Back here at Dyken Park.
09:17Well, we go bottom six.
09:19Now, here's the Astros designated hitter, Lukan Baker.
09:23He's got pop, which is a little sneaky because he's so comfortable with taking his base hits to the opposite field.
09:30But he can jump you if you make a mistake.
09:32So, what's good.
09:42So, what's going on?
09:42How about that?
09:48Oh.
09:48Oh.
09:50Oh.
09:51Oh.
09:51Oh.
09:51Oh.
09:54Oh.
09:57the idea was right looking to locate that fastball up and in he just missed his spot a little bit
10:13struck him out looking well they get the strike out there and what kind of stood out to me was
10:19that they weren't shying away from contact every single pitch was in the strike zone and that tells
10:24me they wanted to attack him and it paid off Griffin Kona will hit next oh for once so far
10:30swing and a miss as he was late that time
10:40next offering is in for a strike
10:46got him picks up strikeout number seven now there's a three-pitch strikeout he can do whatever he wants
10:54with the baseball right now the battered Al Henry Davis he was a strikeout victim his first time
11:00out front with the swing and that is strike one the Strohs hit list so far in the game
11:09swings through that one for strike two
11:12foul ball still low and two
11:23two outs got him looking and he strikes out the side for the third time today nothing doing there for
11:45Houston and we're still knotted at zero
11:56and we're back now it's Jose Ramirez
11:59he's going to miss oh one oh one oh one
12:00oh one oh one
12:21chopper to second whips it to first on the run and very nicely done for the hour
12:27done for the hour here comes Glaber Torrance both two in this one
12:43fall off foul he's controlling things out there on the mound not messing around
12:48at all he's been in attack mode since the very start that one finds the zone
12:540 and 2 down base is empty one away you're the bottom of the seventh
13:05goes down looking Chris third time through the order and a couple of quick
13:12outs for the starter yeah he's been very frugal today economical with the pitch
13:16count and next to hit for Houston your Don Alvarez and that's through there for
13:24a strike and it's all in one late in the game everyone gets a little tighter way
13:29to get ahead on a really good hitter right there two down nobody on that one
13:37misses and the count is one in one
13:44a little bit low this hitters looking for a fastball but I'm not sure he's gonna get
13:49one pitcher doesn't have to challenge him if he feels better about his off speed secondary stuff
13:54then stay with it ground ball left side and it gets through for a hit
14:01their first in the ball game and he can't come up with it and he'll make it to second base with two
14:07gone well he's been absolutely lights out on the mound all game and I really thought he might pull off some history here
14:14but he had that look no doubt perfect games you're so tough though it's one of the rarest feats in sports for a reason
14:21Henderson the next day it takes low for a ball
14:28and it's fouled off
14:33and a swing and a miss
14:35so he cracks double digits with his tenth strikeout
14:38well this guy competes hard we see the emotion there I love it great job of getting out of the jam
14:48welcome back as we take a look at how today's starting pitchers have fared so far
14:58that's a strike
14:58well we call that key holing even though it's right there and looks pretty good if he doesn't love it
15:04he's not going to swing that early in the count
15:08so he's back out to begin the eighth
15:10been a really nice outing for him so far
15:12he's got him looking
15:14and he keeps putting up the K's
15:16that's number eleven
15:18wow short work to send him back in to start the inning
15:20and no messing around either
15:22all three pitches were in the strike zone
15:24attack mode all the way
15:26and that's pretty impressive given the pop
15:28he was dealing with at the plate
15:30Kyle Manzardo getting ready to hit
15:34and action in the bullpen as a result
15:40and fouled off
15:52out to short Castro
15:56fires across the diamond
15:58and that quickly two away
16:04so next up for Houston
16:06Lukan Baker
16:16first pitch and that's in for a strike
16:18and ball one
16:28two down nobody on
16:30here the bottom half of the eighth inning
16:32and he pumps in a strike
16:38one ball two strikes
16:40two strikes
16:46cuts and misses it's a strikeout
16:50Astros are down quietly
16:52still no score
17:00now a new pitcher for the Rays
17:02Lawrence
17:04pretty big spot he's coming into
17:06trying to strand that runner at second base
17:08so he's gonna need to make some quality pitches
17:10he does have first open if he needs to use it
17:12number 53 piled up the strikeouts
17:14over eight shutout innings on the hill
17:16innings on the hill
17:46no

18:15it's the Tampa Bay Rays taking on the athletics first pitch coming your way
18:44next and we're back pitching in our game today number 53 and singe as you know he took home
18:54the AL Cy Young award last year Bob hook he was healthy last year and gained a tremendous amount
19:00of confidence he took a big step forward last season I think he'll take another one this season
19:05bottom of the first and about it now Zach Gelaw and right back to the mound the throw to first one
19:18gone bottom half of the first happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there happy Mother's Day to my mom
19:26yes happy mom's day Carson Williams batting with one down takes a strike one out base is empty big swing
19:37and a miss Oh to the count packs and misses it's a strikeout well obviously the knuckleball it's not
19:51a pitch designed to blow by hitters but you see this every once in a while you can find that pitch
19:56at the plate and then the last moment it darts back into the strike zone and you're just not ready to
20:01get a swing off in time looks like it's a hundred miles per hour and I tell you what I know from
20:06personal experience it's not a good feeling swings and misses struck him out and one two three go the A's
20:16we played an inning no score bottom half of inning number two and now it's Mark Vientos
20:30that one finds the zone and it's all in one he's been known to jump all over the first pitch so that
20:43seems like a missed opportunity right there no wall two strikes
20:54caught him looking for the K well he's got great strikeout stuff on the mound doesn't he I mean double
21:00digit strikeouts in his last start and he's just racking them up again in this one this guy can
21:05really dominate a game out there not a fun assignment for any lineup and now Curtis Meade
21:11it late swing fouled all in there for a strike at the bottom of the zone looks like a really good
21:23fastball today you can hear that catcher's mitt pop it looking forward to hearing a lot of that one in
21:29this one nothing nothing here in the bottom of the second strike three and that's two in a row yeah there's no doubt Boogh electric stuff from the jump and there's just no messing around right now it's still very early
21:32but we could see a pretty impressive outing here if the strikeouts keep coming in and that's two in a row
21:39yeah there's no doubt Boogh electric stuff from the jump and there's just no messing around right now it's still very early but we could see a pretty impressive outing here if the strikeouts keep coming in and that's two in a row
21:51yeah there's no doubt Boogh electric stuff from the jump and there's just no messing around right now it's still very early but we could see a pretty impressive outing here if the strikeouts keep coming in the way they are one thing you have to be aware of though is a high strikeout rate might impact the pitch count as the innings roll on Jordan Walker up next for the A's good power not great in the OBP department and that one popped in the air left field
22:18makes the grab and that's the third out we'll move to the third with no score
22:37and welcome back to the ballpark as we go to the last of the third and here's the first baseman Ralphie Velasquez here's something to watch Cindy
22:47he's got the best OPS on the team he can hurt you
22:54swing and a pop-up
23:11foul territory for the catcher makes the catch and there's one gone
23:17and now here is Miguel blaze
23:24fought off foul blaze launched a pair of homers in his last game
23:30one down base is empty on the ground right side throws the first in time and a couple of quick outs
23:44next up for the A's Antonio Gomez it's been a tough stretch for him at the plate just one hit in his last five games
23:57five games
24:01and a foul ball
24:16strike two
24:18two outs base is empty
24:25next one just misses it's a ball and two strikes
24:29that wasn't an easy pitch to hit it's much easier to do damage against mistakes
24:43but that's not what that pitch was just missed really good take especially two strikes
24:48and he hits a ground ball right side and that chance handle it it's a one two three inning
24:58nothing doing there for the A's and it remains one nothing
25:04and we're back now it's the second baseman Zach Gelof
25:17this one chopped on the ground but foul
25:23Gelof measures six feet two inches 31 years old and he was selected for the all-star game last year
25:30hit on the ground the short Castro one up one down

26:22pretty impressive for an 0-2 count
26:31now the left fielder William Key
26:33struck out swinging his first time
26:35that one found hard the other way
26:50ground there might be two off-balance feed there's one and that's two
26:56ball tree in motion there's the second baseman turns the double play
27:02nice throw to first and that's the way to end the inning
27:07welcome back quite a pitcher's duel so far
27:10here's how the starters are performed up to this point
27:13and that one fouled off
27:20he's been pitching well but going through this middle of the order second time
27:25through we'll see what kind of adjustments are being made
27:31just missed
27:34on the ground and it goes just foul
27:53to the right side Acuna
27:56in plenty of time to first one up one down

29:22well we go bottom six at the plate Ralphie Velasquez
29:26first pitch doesn't find the zone
29:35that's in ball to the rest of the lineup could learn a thing or two from this at bat right here

29:43down the ball here rolls foul
30:06swings through it and that's a strikeout
30:08who for me that knuckleball was just devastating
30:13I mean you see it so well you think you're gonna go out there and get four knocks and you just swing and miss
30:18and I tell you what I tried my best to put Tim Wakefield in the Hall of Fame
30:23so we'll see if he gets there you know it's because of me
30:26Miguel Blase up next for the A's
30:29swings through that

31:08late with the swing there
31:12well the guy's throwing a lot of first pitch strikes as a hitter you got to be ready to hit
31:18now that's not going to help you get deep into his pitch count and into the bullpen
31:23but you got to take what he's offering that day
31:25knocks that one away and we'll do it again
31:41and it's fouled off they'll do it again

36:06Just about ready to go and pitching here today, number 53.
36:11And, Singy, we were talking earlier about how he's doing a great job navigating through
36:16tough spots.
36:17I've just been so impressed with when it seems like there's more pressure, he's more
36:23calm and settles in.
36:24He's done an incredible job with runners in scoring position.
36:27Most guys, they get a little tight, they start to aim the baseball, but for some reason,
36:32he gets looser, the ball comes out of his hand with more light, and he's able to wiggle off
36:36the hook of tough situations and get his team back in the dugout.
36:40And he hits a ground ball right side, and foul ball.
36:49Left hand batter waits, struck him out looking.
36:53Got a pretty rough start to this series for him at the plate.
36:57Three strikeouts in the first game yesterday, another one right there.
37:00They clearly got a great plan for how to deal with this guy right now.
37:04Jason Churio, the batter now as he swings and misses for strike one.
37:09Swing and a miss, and the count is 0-2.
37:13Gets a piece and stays alive.
37:19One out, base is empty.
37:22To third, Bronson.
37:30Nice, efficient start to the afternoon.
37:35That's two out.
37:36Angel Martinez digs into the Guardians.
37:39Fastball for a strike, and it's 0-1.
37:43Martinez, in his fifth season, hitting third in the lineup, and he was born in the Dominican Republic.
37:53Cut on and missed, and it's a strikeout, and that is the inning.
37:57Second inning, set to go.
38:01Now the four-hole hitter for the Guardians, Christopher Morrell, and that's in there at the knees.
38:16Swings through it, and that's a strikeout.
38:19Got him out in front, which isn't easy to do against a hitter like this, known for using the entire field.
38:26He just couldn't sit back long enough on that one.
38:31And first offering is fouled off.
38:33Sabato, recently earned Rookie of the Month honors.
38:38A little out front there as he swings through it.
38:40The way this kid played over the last month, it's no wonder he got recognized for it.
38:45We'll see if he can keep it up as the league adjusts to him, though.
38:47No, he's really dialed in, and this offense is going to have to do something to try to break that rhythm.
38:52Maybe it's square around the bond, step out of the box, agitate him a little bit,
38:56do something that just changes what's happening right now.
39:00Because at this pace, it's going to be a long game, so you've got to figure it out quickly.
39:04And strike two.
39:09That's foul off to the right side, keeps the A.B. going.
39:12Foul ball still a one and two count.
39:19Good zip on that fastball at the bottom of the zone.
39:21If he's there all day, it's going to be a...
39:23Fans another, and that's three straight strikeouts.
39:28Back here at the ballpark, let's check out the latest news from around the league.
39:32And that's in for a strike.
39:370-1-1.
39:39Muncie with a homer in his last game.
39:42Swing and a miss, and he chases that one in the dirt.
39:48Just misses without one.
39:53Ground ball right side.
39:57Luciano fires over to first.
39:59Lead off hitter gone in the third.
40:05Kyle McCann now at the plate as he swings through strike one.
40:11Just missed.
40:17The 1-1 is fouled off.
40:26Next pitch is downstairs.
40:29Knocks that one away, and we'll do it again.
40:40One down, base is empty.
40:42Got him.
40:42And that's six K's for him in this one.
40:45Well, really nice job of finishing the hitter off right there.
40:48The offside command, fastball firm to the outside corner.
40:52Tell you what, very difficult to do anything with that pitch,
40:55even if you do swing.
40:59I would throw him another breaking ball.
41:01Try to go again with the fastball, slightly elevated.
41:04He just had a hard time catching up.
41:06And they'll do it again.
41:14Two outs, base is empty.
41:15Fouls it off.
41:26Still one and two.
41:27Caught him looking for the K.
41:36Nine straight retired here to start the game.
41:38And we're back now.
41:41Here is Chase DeLauder.
41:47DeLauder, 29 years old, and he's been touching home plate quite a bit lately,
41:52scoring eight runs over the last 10 games.
41:54Headed towards the corner.
42:02Nice grab on the run.
42:04And there's one away.
42:06Well, those can be pretty fun as an outfielder.
42:08Got to put it into his highest gear and go a long way to track that one down.
42:13Nothing better than that.
42:14You feel like a wide receiver playing football.
42:16This one popped up.
42:25Foul ground, first base side.
42:27And there's two down.
42:32Now it's the second baseman, Angel Martinez.
42:37Yeah, he swings and misses and it's nothing at all.
42:40One straight.
42:44Yeah, a big swing and a miss.
42:46Swing and a miss.
42:50Struck him out.
42:51And good work there as he gets.
42:54Back now in Tampa Bay.
42:56New inning getting started.
42:57And now Christopher Morrell.
43:03And first offering is fouled off.
43:05Well, after putting up a nice inning on offense, got some runs across.
43:09This is where you look for the starter to go out there, have a shutdown inning.
43:12Don't give that other team any hope.
43:14But you just hope that he can get through this inning.
43:16Get the bats back up there while they're hot.
43:23Cut out and missed.
43:24Curve ball struck him out.
43:26Well, that's such a critical pitch in terms of execution right there.
43:29The pitcher has to finish it.
43:31Otherwise, probably gets hit pretty hard.
43:33If you leave that out over the plate or you don't get it down enough, quickly turns into something that gets smoked.
43:39But if you can place it where he did, it's a really deceptive pitch.
43:42Strike three and that's two to roll.
43:55Now 10 Ks with still a few innings left.
43:57So expecting to add on to that total and no pitchers are looking to have a strikeout per inning.
44:03I mean, that's excellent work.
44:04The way it looks now, I mean, he's going to have a better rate than that in this one.
44:08So really good stuff working on the mound in this one.
44:10Luciano fires over to first.
44:15And welcome back to the ballpark.
44:16Top of the sixth inning.
44:18Stepping up for the Guardians.
44:20Max Muncy.
44:21Chris, he leads the way with the best batting average on the team.
44:27Strike two.
44:34Swing and a ball lifted to center field.
44:37Carl Armstrong settles under and makes the catch.
44:42And there's one down.
44:46The can batting with one down takes a strike.
44:52Right through there for a strike.
44:53Well, I think the key, I mean, if he can get through one more inning, anything after that, a hitter or two is bonus.
44:59But it should be lined up good enough to get to the finish line.
45:04Now there's a three-pitch strikeout.
45:06He can do whatever he wants with the baseball right now.
45:08And now at the plate with two away.
45:10Swings through that one.
45:13And he's down 0-2 as he swings through it.
45:20Fouls that off to the left and will do it again.
45:24The Guardians still looking for their first hit in this one.
45:30Foul ball.
45:30It stays nothing and two.
45:32That wasn't an easy pitch to hit.
45:34It's much easier to do damage against him.
45:36A swing and a miss.
45:38That retires the side.
45:40And that'll do it.
45:42Back here at Tropicana Field.
45:44And now it's going to be Chase DeLauder.
45:47Swings and misses.
45:49Going away.
45:53And it's fouled off.
45:54Cut on and miss.
46:02Strike him out.
46:03That's a Baker's dozen strikeouts for him in this game.
46:07Simply said, this guy's flailing at the plate right now.
46:10Just disconnected from head to toes in terms of the sink of his body.
46:14That's his fifth strikeout of the series.
46:16And we're just two games in.
46:18So, hoping to see some kind of adjustment out of him.
46:20His at-bats are just a little tough to watch right now.
46:30You know, he's been so great today.
46:32Really just throwing whatever the catcher puts down.
46:34I mean, hasn't shaken off the catcher very much at all today.
46:39One down.
46:40Base is empty.
46:42Swing and a miss.
46:43Strike him out.
46:44And he adds another strikeout to the pile.
46:47Fourteen now.
46:50This one in the air.
46:54Murphy should have this one.
46:57But it's the pitcher that makes the play.
47:00And that's the third out.
47:04Well, this game isn't very close, Singy.
47:05Let's see if we got any messages from those tuning in today.
47:08I know we got some good stuff in there.
47:10Do you collect baseball cards?
47:12You know, when I was a kid, I used to put them in my back tire of my bicycle
47:16so it would sound like a motorcycle.
47:18Probably ruined some good cards back then.
47:21But don't really have much of a collection.
47:23The other day, I came across a binder that my wife had in one of the drawers.
47:26And my son's got some baseball cards.
47:28So we'll be looking to see if there's any kind of retirement incoming there.
47:36Yeah, a foul ball.
47:38So my dad told me that he had a bunch of Mickey Mantle rookie cards
47:42and a whole bunch of valuable cards.
47:44And his mom tossed them because, you know, what did she know?
47:47So I made my mom keep all my baseball cards.
47:50And I really don't have any that are valuable.
47:52And that story stunk by me.
47:53Anyway.
47:58Swing and a miss.
47:59Struck him out.
48:00And he runs the strikeout total to 15 on the day.
48:04And there's another strikeout.
48:05And those are just continuing to pile up.
48:07His confidence level has got to be dropped.
48:10And he's got to find a way to make an adjustment.
48:12But he'll get back on track.
48:13His team needs him.
48:14Swing and a miss as he was late that time.
48:16Swing and a miss as he chases that one darting out of the zone.
48:20So he gets yet another strikeout.
48:24Ball set to start the ninth in this one.
48:26So in now for Cleveland, Max Muncy.
48:29And this is very likely the last chance he gets to keep his hitting streak alive.
48:34And first offering is fouled off.
48:36Boog, I'll tell you right now, every player defensively on their toes like never before.
48:41Swing and a miss as he chases that one darting out of the zone.
48:46They want to make sure they have the opportunity to put this pitcher in the history books.
48:54They're going to make the play.
48:55Swing through that one.
48:56It's a strikeout.
48:57I mean, trying to hit that pitch immediately after seeing a good fastball on the pitch before.
49:03It's a brutal task, man.
49:04I don't envy this at all.
49:06You almost have to sit fastball and hope you get one you can put in place so you don't have to deal with the potential of seeing the knuckleball with two strikes.
49:14Swing and a miss as he was out front.
49:16Swing by the time.
49:23battling here as he fouls it away
49:29bases empty one away
49:31here at the top of the ninth
49:33sets him down on strikes
49:35and the Guardians with one out left
49:38well he's going to have some thinking to do
49:40when he leaves the ballpark after this one
49:42that was his third strikeout
49:44and this one looking obviously
49:46so he's been a little overmatched
49:47he's got to find a way just to be more competitive
49:50up there at the plate
49:50this one in the air
49:52isaac
49:55and history
49:57it's a perfect game
