00:00I never thought I'd say this

00:06Cardinal debut of John Lester.

00:09This is what Lester is going to

00:10do he's going to try to paint

00:11corners he's not going to attack

00:12these hitters he's going to work

00:14in and out and you see him trying

00:15to get Ozzie to expand and

00:18Lester lost him a lead off walk

00:19for Albies and the Braves

00:21offense goes to work here at the

00:22first inning.

00:23Here's Jorge Soler and this one

00:26is smoked toward left center

00:27field that ball is near the

00:29ball and that ball is gone for

00:32a soul air with a lightning bolt

00:34got a touch first first.

00:36There we go.

00:37It's two nothing Atlanta here in

00:40the opening inning at Bush

00:41Stadium.

00:43You heard Brian Snitker say he

00:45loves this lineup.

00:47Well you can't do anything but

00:48love this start for Atlanta.

00:50Well I was talking to Snit this

00:51morning Chip and he was talking

00:53about Soler and said at first you

00:54know I was going to kind of play

00:55him against lefties for the most

00:57part has been hammered but he

00:57said he's been swinging the bat so

00:59well such a power hitter that

01:02look right here I'll right off

01:03the bat.

01:04Here's Freddie to nothing

01:05Atlanta before the seats are

01:07even warm.

01:08And Freddie right back where it

01:09came from.

01:10Lester has yet to retire a Braves

01:12hitter.

01:12Yeah the Braves are all over him

01:14right now.

01:14They've taken good swings when

01:16the ball's been in the zone.

01:17Lester back to the stretch with

01:19red hot Austin Riley coming up.

01:22Riley on the ground that's going

01:24to sneak through for another hit.

01:27Freddie around second he's on his

01:28way to third.

01:30Four straight Braves have reached in

01:32the opening inning.

01:34First and third no one out for

01:35Dansby Swanson.

01:36Two one pitch smoked into center

01:38field that's down for a hit.

01:40That's going to score Freeman.

01:41Riley will stop at second.

01:44Five straight Braves have reached.

01:46RBI single for Dansby it's three

01:48to nothing.

01:49Hitters count for Duvall pitch on

01:50the way from Lester outside ball

01:52four load him up for John.

01:56Little pop in a shadow left.

01:58That's going to drop for a hit.

02:01Station to station are the Braves

02:03a blooper for Jack Peterson with

02:05two strikes and Atlanta does get

02:07a fourth run and still nobody out.

02:10Bases loaded for Kevin Smith.

02:14On the ground that should be two

02:16and it is but the Braves will get

02:19another run Dansby Swanson scores

02:22that makes it five nothing and

02:24every pitcher will tell you when

02:26they get to hit before they throw

02:28a pitch you're having a good

02:29night.

02:30They got a tough hombre tonight

02:31Max Freed who has you see his last

02:33three starts what he's done one

02:35and two with a two point eight

02:36four two two on the way swung on

02:39and missed strike three able to

02:41get him with a curve ball.

02:42Dylan Carlson two hits shy of one

02:44hundred for the season the oh two

02:46pitch put in play by Carlson.

02:49Diving stop at third Austin Riley

02:52and Carlson has hit number ninety

02:54nine on the year Max has his

02:55sign the three to strike him out.

03:00And you know what John Lester is

03:01saying why didn't I get that

03:03pitch in the top of the first.

03:06And a swing and a miss is John

03:08Lester has his first Cardinal

03:10strikeout.

03:10A little vintage John Lester right

03:13here just in and out up and down

03:15good hard fastball the way.

03:17Now he greets Freddie Freeman who

03:18singled and scored the third

03:20Atlanta run in the first inning.

03:21one pitch a rocket deep to right down

03:24the line towards the pole home run.

03:28Freddie Freeman drew it down the

03:30line and just did keep it fair and

03:34he will round the bags for the

03:36twenty fourth time this year.

03:37RBI number sixty for Freddie Freeman

03:43six nothing Braves.

03:44Watch him pull his hands up.

03:46Right inside the line Yachty fourth

03:49all time on the hits list in St.

03:51Louis history and not far behind

03:53Rogers Hornsby.

03:54And Yachty lines it out to left and

03:58that ball is down.

03:59O'Neal will stop at second base.

04:01Harrison Bader batting 286.

04:03Strike three right down Broadway

04:07couldn't pull the trigger.

04:08Third strikeout three.

04:10Doubles a triple three home runs

04:13and there's a strikeout for Lester

04:15his second of the night.

04:16As we head to the top of the

04:17fourth inning it'll be freed

04:18Albies and Solaire for Atlanta

04:20here in the fourth.

04:21He's going to be fired with a base

04:25hit for a Solaire to run a homer

04:28back in any number one three two

04:30pitch and he got him catches the

04:34bottom of the strike zone

04:36strikeout number three for

04:37Lester.

04:38It's always the knock on guys

04:40that come from Denver as he

04:42swung at that ball in the dirt

04:43and is frustrated seven straight

04:44for freed.

04:46There's Tyler O'Neal and that's a

04:48base hit into left field for

04:50Tyler O'Neal and a ten pitch

04:51at bat one of Max's best

04:53sequences in the game came when

04:55Bader was up last time up now

04:57the two two pitch swing and a

05:00miss that will take care of the

05:02Cardinals five strikeouts for

05:03Max Freed he's through four with

05:05a shutout Freddie Freeman is

05:35good fastball tonight and he has

05:39uniform and I believe he is rung

05:42up.

05:42Yes indeed Dylan Carlson strikes

05:44out one away for Max and

05:47Aronado chased a ball in the dirt

05:49that'll be corralled by Kevin

05:50Smith and Max Freed finishes with

05:53seven strikeouts through six

05:55shot out innings what a night and

06:30that mileage there's some

06:32mileage on that ball Duvall to
