00:30and it's exhibition baseball got on tap in this one
00:47welcome everybody Gary Thorne here alongside my colleague Steve Phillips
00:51now in this situation with these starters you're talking about Steve
00:54this is a game that could very easily come down to the pins I think that's
00:58exactly right who gets into the bullpen later in the game and who has the right
01:03matchups
01:28on the way
01:36number 21 and he lays one down here
01:40he just makes every ground ball to the right side look routine
01:48serves up another one and sends him back to the dugout
01:52nobody on base one away and the first pitch
01:56looked like the circle change and it just misses 1-0
02:001-0 on the way
02:051-0 pitches a slider swung on and missed 21
02:10the 1-1 pitch
02:16backdoor slider right there but he laid off the pitch
02:21here's the 2-1 pitch
02:332-2 on the way
02:35swing and all drilled down the right field line that one's into the corner
02:41throws the first he's retired that's two down
02:44well he tops that one to second and on easy routine ground ball and he's taken care of
02:51aces empty and two down
02:53and the first pitch
02:55trying to power that four seam fastball up and away but out of the strike zone you got to bring that thing back in
03:02the 1-0 pitch
03:04the 1-0 pitch
03:05on he saws him off as this one's hit on the ground
03:11Cavana puts that one away the side is retired
03:15and they are retired in short order good defensive half inning
03:20and now we'll go to the home half of the first
03:22in a scoreless ball game

04:26swing and a line drive
04:28and it's in there

25:09he delivers
25:11put it in front in that one strike one
25:15take something off that time in control with the count now 0 and 2
25:26liner towards the hole

26:04gets the other
26:06now batting
26:08you want to talk about settling in

26:16oh it's a quality fastball right there
26:18just pounding the strike zone down and away
26:20he had no chance to put that one in play

32:46Number 17.
32:49Basketball runs inside.
32:511-0.
32:55Here's the 1-0.
32:56There's a swing.
32:59Fly ball down the line in the left.
33:01Throws in time to first.
33:03What a play.

33:12Bases in.
33:15Here's the first one.
33:16The 0-0 delivery.
33:17A fastball taken for a strike.
33:26One ball.
33:26Oh, and he lays off the fastball.
33:28Good pitch.

33:51Snyder.
33:52First pitch on the way.
33:53High block.
33:54Slider's in there for a called strike.
33:56The pitchers way ahead.
34:05He's got some room here now to play with some pitches.
34:07Don't be too fine giving him something good to hit.
34:15Ball one.
34:16One of the best pitches in the game is the fastball down and away.
34:20It stays in the ballpark and it's your power against power.
34:241-2 pitch coming.
34:27Oh, and he checks his swing.
34:29He'll call that one a strike.
34:30The appeal goes to first.
34:32Just a little too much on the swing.
34:35The strike is called.
34:37No runs, no hits.
34:39Nobody crossed the plate in this half inning and nobody left on base.
34:42Seven innings in the books now.
34:44On to the eighth.
34:44One to nothing.
34:47New up 6-7-8 in the lineup.
34:49Barms is up next.
34:52Getting off the third of the eighth inning.
34:54He deals.
34:553-11.
34:56Makes a swing at that fastball.
35:00Can't connect on one.
35:06On the ground to second.
35:08Walker.
35:09From his knees, got him.
35:13What a throw.
35:16Wallace, he flew up his last time up.
35:20Nobody on base.
35:21One away.
35:23Now the first pitch.
35:25Now 0-1.
35:26Watch that fastball go by.
35:27Lined up the middle.
35:28Locker.
35:28Locker.
35:28He's there, makes the catch.
35:43Two down now.
35:44Now batting.
35:46Catcher.
35:47Castro.
35:47Castro.
35:47Strunk out swinging his last time up.
35:49Two outs and nobody on.
35:53Here's the first pitch.
35:56Swings on that first pitch.
35:58Misses the fastball.
35:590-1.
35:59And he's on in front on that pitch.
36:07So he's in the hole now.
36:080-2.
36:09Passball swung on and missed.
36:20Side retired.
36:22The Houston Astros are held in check yet again.
36:25Scoreless through eight innings.
36:261-0.
36:28We got the bottom three in the lineup due up.
36:31Diaz will be next to the plate.
36:35Here's the first pitch.
36:36Number 32.
36:36And his throw is in time.
36:41First out of the inning.
36:43Now batting.
36:45Number 29.
36:47Talk about spinning on a dime.
36:49He did that here and made a fine off-balance throw.
36:52That's one of the toughest plays you have to make is when your body's out of control yet your arm has to be in control.
36:58Right release point and accurate throw.
37:02Go ball.
37:03Swim strike.
37:06On the way.
37:18Johnson.
37:18And he puts that one away for number two.
37:20Now batting pitcher.
37:22Gary, I tell you what.
37:23I think he caught that one in silver face.
37:25He couldn't even move.
37:26He had to just get the glove up.
37:28Aces empty and two down.
37:32And the first pitch.
37:34Off the plate.
37:35Low.
37:351-0.
37:42Here's the 1-0.
37:44Goal.
37:45Goal.
37:45Fastball just misses and he falls behind.
37:482-0.
37:48The 2-0.
37:55Changeup just misses.
37:57He runs it to 3-0.
38:02Here's the 3-0 pitch.
38:06Fastball.
38:06That's over for a strike.
38:083-1.
38:08Here's the 3-1 pitch.
38:18Swung on and popped way up high.
38:24Pence with that catch into the dugout.
38:26That'll end the inning.
38:28It's the kind of inning the defense likes.
38:30Three up, three down.
38:31The ninth inning is coming up.
38:331-0.
38:35Bottom part of the order will get their chance offensively.
38:38Hall is beating third in the inning.
38:42Pitcher.
38:42The first pitch.
38:43Number 19.
38:45Just missed with the fastball.
38:471-0.
38:521-0 on the way.
38:55This one swung on.
38:56Hit down the line and right.
38:58Alvarez.
38:59The catch.
39:00And he puts it away.
39:01Out number one.
39:02Number 21.
39:04Michael.
39:04Bases empty.
39:05One out.
39:07Kicks and throws.
39:10First pitch.
39:11Inside with the fastball.
39:12Ball one.
39:17A 1-0 pitch.
39:20That's misses up and away.
39:22Ball two.
39:28Now the 2-0 pitch.
39:29I don't think he likes that call, but when you're diving out over the plate, sometimes that
39:35fastball up and in doesn't look like a strike even when it is.
39:39Here he comes.
39:40Here he comes.
39:40Here he comes.
39:402-1 pitch.
39:42Hit sharply towards the hole.
39:431-0 pitch.
39:441-0 pitch.
39:451-0 pitch.
39:461-0 pitch.
39:471-0 pitch.
39:48The catch is made.
39:49The catch is made and that's out number two.
39:512-0 pitch.
39:522-0 pitch.
39:531-0 pitch.
39:542-0 pitch.
39:562 out space.
39:572-0 pitch.
39:58Here he comes.
39:59Pock him up and in there, base head.
40:03He throws to second.
40:05Coming to bat right fielder.
40:10Number 9.
40:12In first, two away.
40:18Working ahead in the count in key situations is critical for a pitcher.
40:22That first pitch strike could go a long way to getting this guy out.
40:28Smash towards the middle.
40:30Walker.
40:33Throws on the first in time to retire the set.
40:37The Pittsburgh Pirates.
40:38And Steve, that'll descend these folks home half.
40:41No question about it.
40:42They get the win in a close game.
40:44A lot of excitement and enthusiasm and ready for the next one.
40:48Jeannie Zalasco, Steve Biziot will be with you from Hardball Central.
40:52Thanks, fellas.
40:52And now we turn to our Hardball Central coach.
40:55He's in position of the best to play the former.
40:58Steve, it came down with performance on the mound, didn't he?
41:00Paul Mahalem sure put in a good show today.
41:03I mean, those batters just didn't know what to do with this lefty.
41:06He managed to keep them well off balance.
41:09And there was some wicked movement on a lot of his pitches.
41:12And we here at Hardball Central and 2K Sports wish you a pleasant goodbye.
41:17Thank you so much for being with us today with our Maple Leaf Baseball action.
41:21With Steve Biziot and the rest of our 2K Sports crew.
41:24This is Jeannie Zalasco saying thanks for tuning in.
41:27And once again, our final score, 1-0.
41:301-0.
