01:22Two outs with Hunter Goodman at first base.
01:25And Michael Tolia.
01:26This is lined to right by Tolia.
01:29And it's going to go all the way to the wall.
01:31Let's see if Andy Gonzalez will save it.
01:33You bet.
01:33Here comes Hunter with the house.
01:35Here comes the throw.
01:37Safe.
01:37To third.
01:38Safe there as well.

01:42Big Mike coming through.
01:43Going oppo.
01:45That'll be a double.
01:47And Tolia moving up on the throw.

01:51But drives the ball the other way.
01:52Hitting right handed.

02:04After being hit by a pitch.
02:07Tapper to third.
02:08Barehand play from Muncie.
02:10Not in time.
02:12Hoo hoo hoo.
02:14L.A. is challenging.
02:15Safe call at first base.
02:17Yeah this should be a quick review in New York.
02:20After review the call in the field is overturned.
02:22The runner is out.
02:24That'll be a nice play for Max Muncie.
02:26Tolia does not score.
02:28And after the Rockies bat for the first time.
02:30They get a run on two hits.
02:32No errors.
02:32And a man left.
02:33And a base hit for Will Smith.
02:35And the tying runs aboard in the second.
02:36He makes the catch and foul territory.
02:39For the first out of the Dodgers second.
02:41And now he gets a strikeout.
02:42And a second strikeout for Marquez.
02:45Is his second out of this second inning.
02:47He just feels like everything is in his command.
02:50Swing and a miss.
02:52Got him with that curve ball.

03:11Passed to diving.
03:11Mookie Betts.
03:12Good start to the second inning for Ryan McMahon.
03:14The Dolph Man is aboard here in the second.
03:17Ritten Doyle up to the plate now with nobody out.
03:19Struck him out with 98.
03:21Just by you.
03:23A good velo on that fastball from Robleski.
03:26And that's his first punch out of the night.
03:28One down.
03:28Robleski with another strikeout with some more heat.
03:32Farmer goes down.
03:33Now Ryan Ritter the shortstop.
03:34Number nine hitter.
03:35Will come to the plate with two outs and a runner at first.
03:37McMahon has himself a stolen base.
03:40He is locked up.
03:41Strike three.
03:42Called.
03:42A cutter.
03:43Over the outer half.
03:45And working around a single by McMahon.
03:48Robleski strikes out the next three.
03:50A lead off double for Michael Conforto.
03:53Guy who's struggling at the plate.
03:54Number nine hitter.
03:55The second baseman.
03:56Tommy Edmond.
03:57Strike three.
03:58That's a big punch out of Edmond.
04:02One out.
04:03And then the line up will flip to Otani.
04:05And that one is hit to left field.
04:06That's playable for Beck.
04:08Circles around.
04:09Will shy of the track.
04:10He'll haul that in.
04:11And holding it second base is Conforto.
04:14And a good pitch.
04:16Marquez to Otani.
04:17Out number two.
04:18And here's Mookie Betts.
04:19To him.
04:20It's hit into center field on the move.
04:22He's Doyle.
04:22Runs it down.
04:23What a great running catch in left center field by Brenton Doyle.
04:27Good work again.
04:28Marquez.
04:29Lead off double.
04:30Does not hurt him.
04:31Two away.
04:32Go now to Jordan Beck.
04:33The number three hitter.
04:34She even gets something going with two outs.
04:36And up the middle.
04:37Into center.
04:37It's a base hit.
04:39Here is Michael Tolia.
04:40Drove in that run for the Rockies in the first inning.
04:42Lined in the right center field.
04:44On the move.
04:45Conforto dies.
04:46He can't get it.
04:47It's off his glove.
04:48Beck's going to be waved in.
04:49The throw is cut off.
04:52The Rockies back on the board.
04:54Michael Tolia with his second RBI of the game.
04:58Sinking liner to left.
04:59Conforto couldn't make the play.
05:01Tolia ends up at second.
05:02And two nothing Rockies.
05:04Dermon Marquez has allowed two hits.
05:07But has kept the Dodgers off the board.
05:09So the Dodgers have loaded the bases.
05:11And there's nobody out.
05:12Time to eat for Teoscar Hernandez.
05:15First pitch.
05:15A bouncer to the middle of the infield.
05:17Estrada at second.
05:18Got to get it away quickly.
05:20And cleanly he does.
05:22But a run score is on the play.
05:23The Dodger deficit has been cut in half.
05:25Typically a ball hit to where Estrada is at second.
05:28Just to the right of the bag would be a double play ball.
05:31But only able to get one on a 4-3 put out.
05:34Teoscar gets an RBI.
05:35And the runners advance to second and third.
05:37Big break.
05:37Dodgers on the board now.
05:39Andy Pye has a chance to tie him.
05:41And give him a lead.
05:42Perhaps.
05:43Cue to Tolia.
05:44He's coming home.
05:45So is Smith.
05:46The throw.
05:47And what a slide by Smith.
05:49Steps over the tag of Goodman.
05:52And we're tied at two.
05:54Will Smith was going on contact.
05:56That's where you tell the runners that hey look.
05:58You're going to be going on anything on the ground.
06:00Regardless of where it is.
06:01That throw is about 8 feet up the third baseline.
06:03And Will Smith.
06:04As you said.
06:05He slid over the top.
06:07Of the catcher.
06:08The Dodgers still have runners on the corners.
06:11With one out.
06:12Pajas takes off for a second.
06:14This ball is in the air.
06:15This ball is crushed.
06:16Michael Conforto.
06:18Gives the Dodgers the lead.
06:21Conforto lets it fly.
06:22For a three run shot.
06:24And it's a five spot for the Dodgers in the fourth.
06:27Still only one out.
06:28And that's through the wickets of Tolia.
06:32Edmonds on.
06:33And heading for second.
06:35Everything is unraveling for the Rockies in this fourth inning.
06:39It's out number two.
06:41On his fifth strikeout of the night.
06:43Mookie Betts has popped to first and flied to center.
06:47That's a fair ball toward the left field corner.
06:50Tommy Edmonds can stroll home.
06:52Mookie Betts can stroll into second.
06:54Standing up with a two out RBI double.
06:57The Dodgers lead by four.
06:59If you give this ball club an opening.
07:01They're going to take it.
07:03Going away.
07:03Jordan Beck with his second hit of the night.
07:05He's two for three.
07:06Here comes Big Mike.
07:07Two RBI doubles for Tolia.
07:10And that's down the line.
07:12That is a.
07:13Oh.
07:13It looks like it's right on the line.
07:15You might be able to challenge this one since it's in the air.
07:18Oh yeah.
07:19That one hit the line.
07:20That's white.
07:21The Rockies are going to challenge.
07:22You should challenge that.
07:23Colorado is challenging to call a foul ball.
07:26After a view.
07:26The call in the field is overturned.
07:28The ball is fair.
07:29Runners will be placed at second and third.
07:32Colorado will retain their challenge.
07:34Tyro Estrada the second baseman 0-4-1 with a walk.
07:38And Tyro to center field.
07:40Going to get one run home here.
07:42Tagging is back.
07:43Six to three for Estrada's ninth RBI.
07:47Lead off infield single for the Dodgers.
07:49Entering this series.
07:5028 games against Colorado.
07:52Otani with 29 RBI.
07:5411 home runs.
07:56Otani swaps it in the air to left field.
07:58Pushing back to the wall.
07:59This ball is out of here.
08:02So Shohei feasts again against Colorado.
08:06A two run blast to make it eight.
08:08Three Dodgers.
08:09He's get first and second.
08:11Nobody out.
08:11Next two strike out.
08:12Beck and Tolia in succession.
08:15Now Tyro Estrada.
08:16And this ball to the left side.
08:18A base hit.
08:18Freeman coming to the house.
08:20Eight to four.
08:21One scoring single by Tyro Estrada.
08:24Second RBI in the ninth.
08:25Taking the extra bases Ritter.
08:27He's at second.

08:31Down the right field line.
08:33Extra bases.
08:35Ritter will score easily.
08:37Freeman is going to stop at second.
08:40Given the score.
08:42RBI number 11 on the season for Freeman.
08:47So Tanner Scott's well rested.
08:48He's going to be asked to get four outs.
08:50From the Dodgers perspective.
08:52Time run at the plate.
08:53Back.
08:53Two on two out.
08:54He lines it.
08:56Fail.
08:56Right on the left field line.
08:58Into the corner.
08:59It's going to score two.
09:01All the way from first base.
09:03Goodman home.
09:05Just like that.
09:06It's 8-7.
09:07Well one out single for Muncie.
09:10Here comes Teoscar.
09:11Teoscar Hernandez.
09:12Drills it to left center field.
09:15That's down.
09:16Green light for Muncie.
09:17He's going to score without a throw.
09:20There's an insurance run.
09:21And there's Teoscar Hernandez coming through again.
09:24Tanner Scott goes back to the mound.
09:27He has not finished a four out save this season.
09:30One down in the Rockies ninth.
09:32Bump base hit for Ryan McMahon.
