01:27splinter called strike three and
01:29Riley goes down looking there's
01:31two down and the first five in
01:32this ballgame have been retired
01:34for via the strikeout and now
01:36Ozuna this is high level right
01:38here Yamamoto and Ozuna if you're
01:40in that dugout it's must see
01:42another three two and Marcelo
01:45Zuna draws his twenty seventh
01:47walk the most in Major League
01:48Baseball what an at bat that was

01:58games heads up line drive into
02:00Mookie Betts his glove and he got
02:02it before he hit the dirt one down

02:07Grant will have to hustle over he
02:08does good start five up five down
02:10for Holmes striking out Otani
02:12Betts and Freeman and then getting
02:14Hernandez and Smith on a couple of
02:16weak ground balls and that all
02:17leads to Max Muncy got him four
02:19strikeouts through six hitters for
02:21Holmes and he's retired all six
02:23he's faced five six and seven for
02:26Atlanta against Yamamoto here in
02:27the second inning or he was Sean
02:29Murphy line drive right back to
02:32Yamamoto goodness gracious they're
02:34hitting it hard right back at the
02:35Dodgers ace that came off the bat
02:37at one hundred and six miles an
02:39hour and fortunately for Yamamoto
02:41he had his glove up there but a
02:43great play and now Ozzie Albies
02:45swung on and miss strike three the
02:47bat helicopter down by the first
02:49base bag and for Yamamoto he comes
02:52all the way back from the 3-0
02:53count to strike out Albies with a
02:55curveball he'll get a ground ball
02:56right back to him second time in
02:58the game he's had that happen to
02:59him he throws over to first and
03:00it's a one two three bottom of the
03:02second inning here's a guy that
03:04needs to find some comfort in the
03:05swing Conforto last two weeks
03:07just two for thirty three two to
03:09Michael Conforto that is right
03:11there at the knees beautiful five
03:14strikeouts already for Grant
03:15Holmes Grant Holmes seems like a
03:17man on a mission here not happy
03:19probably with the three home runs
03:21that he allowed to Ayo Suarez not
03:23happy maybe and how he performed
03:25against the Los Angeles Dodgers
03:26the team that originally drafted
03:28him in that first start that he
03:29had where he gave up four runs
03:30over four innings he seems
03:32determined to be dominant tonight
03:33here's Miguel Rojas ground ball
03:35out the third on the other end
03:36Riley he's got it zips it over
03:37there there's a one two three
03:39inning into the bottom of the
03:40third Eli White climbing in doubles
03:43up gets a ground ball to the right
03:44side diving stop Freeman Yamamoto
03:46steps on the bag nice job by
03:48Freddie even better for him to get
03:50the ball out of his glove and get
03:52it the Yamamoto as he gets to
03:54first base nice job there by
03:56Freddie good body control and
03:59Yamamoto ready to fire here comes
04:00the pitch swing and a miss
04:02strike three got him with a high
04:04cutter third strikeout for
04:05Yamamoto strikeouts tonight are an
04:07aisle three plenty of them to get
04:09plenty of inventory sends the pitch
04:11home and a swing and a miss strike
04:13three got him with a splitter
04:14fourth strikeout no contact
04:16there Shohei Ohtani who struck
04:18out to start the ball game now
04:20leads off the fourth Holmes two
04:22two my goodness Grant Holmes is in
04:26an absolute zone really good
04:28slider there at eighty five miles
04:30an hour some good spin you can
04:31see the break and how tight it is
04:33there from Grant Holmes strikes
04:35out Ohtani again now bets off of
04:39Grant Holmes Riley hustles but bets
04:42will reach and there is the first
04:44base runner for the Dodgers here
04:46tonight and George Poulos hustling
04:48out to check on the right hander
04:50all right he nods to Snit and to
04:52George they seem to be satisfied
04:54so runner at first one down for
04:56Freddie Freeman first pitch ground
04:58to the right side off the goal of
04:59Olsen Freeman will reach back to
05:02back hits on the infield for the
05:03Dodgers here in the fourth three
05:05two check swing they appeal he did
05:08not go and that's ball four and
05:11that will load the bases for Will
05:12Smith so Grant was cruising right
05:15along ten in a row sat down but
05:17then he took a line drive off the
05:18back of his left leg that was from
05:20Betts then Freeman an infield
05:21single and then a walk to Teoscar
05:24Hernandez and now they're loaded
05:26for Will Smith in the air to
05:28right White came in now as to
05:31back up Betts tags at third he's
05:33running home the throw home is off
05:36the mark another sack fly for
05:38Smith and the Dodgers grab the
05:39first lead here's the two two
05:41pitch and he gets him to swing
05:43over the top of a slider for
05:44strike three so damage control
05:46indeed for Grant Holmes went
05:48through some tough circumstances
05:49there in the top of the inning
05:50gives up one run Ozuna has now
05:52walked twice and those are the two
05:54blemishes against Yamamoto's
05:56scorecard so far that'll bring
05:58Matt Olsen up to the plate swing
06:00and a miss strike three high
06:01fastball and that is out number
06:04two fifth strikeout for Yamamoto
06:06Sean Murphy the catcher that's
06:09strike three two punch outs in
06:11the inning he's got six in the
06:12game Yamamoto is in his rocking
06:15chair right now he's through
06:16four his Andy pies who lead it
06:18off for the Dodgers Oz he'll
06:21have to hurry pot has runs well
06:23wow the glove flip a little
06:26wizardry from Oz at second base
06:29to get pot has that is a great
06:31play I think Ozzie realizes that
06:32if he goes to the bare hand and
06:34then exchanges that not going to
06:35be enough time and I mean bare
06:36hand into the glove so he
06:38figured he could get it there much
06:39quicker if he went ahead and
06:40scooped it that wasn't even close
06:42swing and a miss down goes
06:43Conforto again he's over his last
06:45twenty one and that ties a career
06:47high for eight strikeouts for
06:49Holmes career high nine strikeouts for
06:53Grant Holmes for Grant Holmes
06:55outstanding but we go to the bottom
06:57of the fifth he and the Braves
06:58trail one to nothing to dawn for
07:00the Braves and the batter will be
07:01Eli White and White pops it up
07:04shallow right Miguel Rojas is out
07:06here comes Teosca Hernandez in to
07:08call him off and make the catch
07:10and Yamamoto has retired the side
07:12in order for the third time in
07:14five innings top of the order for
07:16the Dodgers and so Tony Betts and
07:19Freeman wind in the pitch to
07:21Ohtani hit hard on one hop but
07:22right at Ozzie impressive what
07:24Holmes did to start the game and
07:26impressive what he has been doing
07:27throughout but the Braves have not
07:29been able to get anything going
07:30offensively this is just a
07:32fantastic Friday night pitchers
07:34duel right now here in Atlanta
07:35Ohtani 0 for 3 and here's Betts
07:39Betts with a fly ball left center
07:41field on the run Verdugo he's at
07:42the wall this ball is gone
07:46Mookie Betts with his first home
07:47run since April 14th and the
07:50Dodgers double their lead we're
07:52just talking about Grant Holmes
07:53not making very many mistakes in
07:55the middle of the plate and he
07:56made one there and that's one
07:57when he goes back and watches
07:59it he's going to be pretty
08:00frustrated with he was in a good
08:01position to try to get Mookie
08:02another hitters count the 3 1
08:05low he walked in so the walk
08:07follows the home run Freeman's
08:08on for the second time and here's
08:10to Oscar Hernandez who has
08:11grounded out and walked 3 1 pitch
08:14grounder Riley right there on a
08:16second for one boy Grant needed
08:19that the Dodgers have to settle
08:21for one the home run by Mookie
08:22Betts Yamamoto with five no hit
08:24innings so far Yamamoto's 2 1 to
08:26Allen the number nine hitter
08:28round ball a second Rojas makes
08:31the play top of the order and
08:32Alex Verdugo who's hit in six
08:34straight 2 2 pitch grounded to
08:36the right side Freddie Freeman's
08:38got it with a backhand underhand
08:39toss to Yamamoto he steps on the
08:42bag to get Verdugo two down in
08:44the sixth and Austin Riley the
08:46third baseman is 0 for 2 struck
08:48out in the first and fly to
08:50center in the fourth taking the
08:53other way for a base hit in the
08:55right center field gap cut off
08:56by potheads Riley going for a
08:58second to throw in his wide two
09:00out double breaks up Yamamoto's
09:02no hit bid and now as the Braves
09:05try to start a rally Marcelo
09:06Zuna comes up swung on the
09:08ground ball to third Max once he
09:10comes up with it sets his feet
09:11overhand toss the first Ozuna is
09:13down the Braves come up empty
09:15no hitter is gone but the runner
09:17stranded at second base so
09:18Grant Holmes can throw up a zero
09:20here now in the top of the seven
09:21five six seven in the order
09:22starting with Will Smith kicks and
09:24brings a three two and a ladder
09:25into center field down for a base
09:27hit Brian Sticker is going to come
09:28out and remove Grant Holmes it was
09:30a valiant effort tonight career
09:32high nine strikeouts but
09:34ultimately he leaves down two to
09:36nothing here in the south
09:38Yoshinobu Yamamoto an incredible
09:40start tonight he went six scoreless
09:42giving up just the one hit and now
09:43it's the former brave Kirby Yates
09:46pitch coming on let's see if the
09:47Braves can do some damage against
09:48him and Matt Olsen will start it
09:50Olsen gives it a ride out to
09:52center it's high it's deep and it's
09:55gone Matt Olsen gets Atlanta on the
09:58board in the seventh he hammers this
10:00baseball four-seam fastball at 94
10:02miles an hour the question was whether
10:04or not he got under it just a little
10:06bit too much he did not 411 feet away
10:09from home plate as it just barely
10:11he clears the wall now they turn to
10:13Evan Phillips former Braves draft
10:15pick who debuted with Atlanta 2018
10:18and he will try to get the save
10:19Riley one for four with a double
10:22versus Phillips everybody else who
10:23has seen him on the roster is over
10:25in their careers he got him
10:27swinging went to the bread and
10:29butter the sweeper gets a K one
10:31down now Marcel Ozuna Phillips
10:33readies and fires strike three
10:36swinging 86 by an hour sweeper
10:39Zuna just out in front of that two

10:46missed the ball game continues now
10:49the potential winning run coming to
10:50the plate here in Sean Murphy ground
