00:03134 days since Justin Verlander laced him up as a Detroit Tiger but JV tonight is officially back
00:13feels like a holiday Justin Verlander is a Detroit Tiger again he's pitched him plenty of big big
00:21games World Series games but tonight I think is something special for him and we're set for the
00:27home opener got the band back together here Michael Soroka tonight's a free agent signing in December
00:32he is the first native Canadian starting pitcher in Diamondbacks history how about that coming off a
00:38WFBC performance with team Canada started a couple games for them Kerry Carpenter leads it off for the
00:43Tigers wing and a miss and a good start for Michael Soroka that's just a 95 mile an hour four
00:49seamer
00:50here it is see what you can do with it now look it's a Glaber Torres walk number six
00:56in four games for him Keith originally drafted to the fifth round at a high school
01:01who is holding this time called strike three the fastballs there and that's the second strikeout
01:07for Michael Soroka Riley Green opposite way base not two on two out here's trouble it's Spencer
01:14Torkelson the ASU Sun Devil there's a bounce at Arenado and he wins the foot shuffle to the bag
01:23just barely ahead of Torres a long first for Soroka but a zero on the board and the
01:28Diamondbacks are coming up against Justin Verlander for the Detroit Tigers Dan is Justin Verlander you know
01:36and it's probably not fair to expect the Cy Young an MVP of 2011 or the Cy Young winner of
01:412022 but
01:42there's still a lot left you could tell Marte leads it off and there you go there's some
01:48force a curveball knocked into center off Verlander a base hit to lead it off he's aboard ahead of
01:52Corbin Carroll that rolls away from Dingler there goes Marte and he's in there head first wild pitch by
01:59Verlander and good base running by Cattell puts him in scoring position Corbin Carroll lines it to right
02:06and it's off the wall Marte coming around Corbin Carroll he's going the distance he's going for speed
02:16man that pitch 94 down and in right in his wheelhouse I thought that ball had a chance to get
02:22out of here off the bat
02:23long look into Dingler from Verlander here it is
02:27he won't bite hits the base on balls first three have reached against Verlander in the first
02:32big RB guy chance for Gabby in the cleanup spot Moreno reaches down pokes it to short Baez will get
02:38one
02:39and they can't turn two Corbin's home
02:41and it's 2-0 defense
02:43one away for Soroka and here is the Tiger catcher Dylan Nickler
02:47swing and a miss it's the slur and Soroka has struck out three of the first seven
02:52as that is served down the left field line by Parker Meadows and should be extra bases
02:57it's a two out double and again a Tigers left hander goes the opposite way and now Javi Baez
03:04called strike three there's the sinker Michael Soroka in his D-backs debut
03:10four strikeouts through the first nine is the most played appearances all time versus Justin Verlander
03:17some of the players on that list have already had like a day in their honor at their home team
03:23ball
03:25Santana hammers this ball to right but playable for Carpenter one away so 101 played appearances
03:32between those two Daniela yeah Carlos Santana after batting practice today we brought up these numbers to him
03:38and he said he knew he faced him a lot in Cleveland but was surprised by 100 the number 100
03:44felt big to him
03:45but what he did know right away is that he has nine homers against JB so he said he's always
03:50well prepared for Justin Verlander
03:52back to back one out singles way too many good swings Jordan Lawler rips a single
03:59you're one swing away from a nice cushy lead here's Marte that's sky high in a very short
04:05left field and it's over the shoulder Javi Baez right into his glove for out number two
04:13you know what that looked like that was dropping and then all of a sudden he's just that basket
04:18look at this look how far he goes out I mean they call him El Mago because he's a magician
04:24that looked
04:25looked like a magic trick chance for Corbin who had the RBI triple in the first
04:29high in the air to right
04:32Carpenter back to the track he's back to the wall
04:35and it's gone
04:37first of the year for Corbin and it's five zips
04:40last year Corbin Carroll one of three players in Major League history
04:44to have 30 or more homers 30 or more stolen bases and 15 or more triples in the same year
04:50Jimmy Rollins and Willie Mays the other two guys that accomplished that that was a blast
04:55first hit of the year for Kerry Carpenter and he just tomahawked that puppy goodness gracious
05:00you see the exhale there from Kerry over at first base like finally
05:04medicine out to deep center field Thomas sprinting back on the warning track with room
05:09he's gonna make the catch and Carpenter has to retreat back to first
05:15Colt Keith caught looking his first time he's gonna test center field Thomas back again he is
05:22gonna have to duck as that ball gets up and over I believe now Colt is gonna have to scramble
05:29back to second
05:30the crowd reacted like it was a home run but it kicked back in so it's gonna be a double
05:35for now
05:36it was nearly up and out Kerry Carpenter's looking like isn't that a home run and it is a double
05:45yeah it hit below the line into that railing here's Riley Green second and third one out
05:51called strike three
05:54rung him up and caught him looking with that fastball that's been an effective put away pitch Bob as you
05:59brought up earlier
05:59yeah sure has been and uh here is Torkelson hit into a fielder's choices first time up swing and a
06:05miss
06:05he struck him out and Soroka with a half dozen strikeouts in the early going as the Tigers strayed two
06:12more
06:13now almost through the lineup for the second time hasn't recorded a strikeout swing and a miss strike three it's
06:18Alec
06:19Thomas who is the first strikeout back in a Tiger uniform for Justin Verlander that'll bring up Dylan
06:27Dingler two and two on Dylan Dingler swing and a miss Soroka's punched out seven and three the last four
06:33about Alec Thomas and his confidence at the plate with his new stance and the same thing goes for Michael
06:38Soroka making his first start of the year in the home opener I mean you go out there and stumble
06:43a little
06:43bit in the first couple innings and all of a sudden you wonder if you even belong here but he
06:47is out there
06:47they are dealing tonight D-backs debut for Michael Soroka tonight he has been on top of his game since
06:52the first pitch of the game
06:54way into this the slurve is dancing up there nine strikeouts he's thrown six pitches all of them strikes
07:03we're coming right after immaculate hitting territory here yep eight in a row we are one strike away from what
07:11they call an immaculate hitting
07:13here's the 0-2 got him Michael Soroka strikes out the side in the fifth
07:19it's an immaculate hitting how about that in your Diamondback debut with a home opener
07:25ten strikeouts through five and a five nothing lead welcome to Diamondback land Michael Soroka
07:31Wow two on and one out for Alec Thomas and Alec drives it the other way the left center
07:37and it's off the wall Moreno will score J.R. House stops Aranato it's an RBI double off the
07:44left-hander for Alec Thomas nice that's the consistent loud contact we've seen from Alec all spring long and they're
07:53loaded
07:53Jordan Singleton scored his first time up tonight Jordan Lawler tremendous discipline up there a two out
08:00base is loaded walk and it's seven nothing Diamondbacks and they're still loaded
08:05you can tell Marte tape bounces it to short a short hopper by it is close but they get the
08:12force at second
08:14and they will challenge the out call at second base Adam Hammery down there made the call
08:21tough to tell from that angle right there I think Adam Hammery was just a little bit blocked too by
08:27the slide of
08:27that is the foot on the back because sure looks like it Torre doesn't have the ball yet
08:32the corner field is overturned they're under safe
08:34eight nothing Diamondbacks on top in an eight nothing game a lead off walk in the seventh inning
08:40really don't want to do that keep all the momentum on the D-back side don't let the Tigers get
08:44a glimpse
08:45that they could maybe get back in this game fly ball deep left center field gap and that ball is
08:49not
08:49gonna be caught by anybody one hop up against the wall tracked down by Thomas McGonigal around third he will
08:54score
08:56Dillon Dingler cruises into second rushes a double to the deepest part of the ballpark Tigers are on the
09:02board now trailing eight to one yeah good swing there by Dingler got to the inside of that sinker stays
09:06behind it and does what Dillon Dingler does hit line drives in those gaps split the gap between Thomas
09:11Lawler out there one hops the wall so a quick mound visit and a reset here here's Barker Meadows
09:17is rolled over to the right side Marte the second baseman has it he will go to first in plenty
09:23of time
09:23Dingler gets to third and with one out here is the shortstop Baez does work out to give Baez an
09:30RBI
09:30chance but Tigers really aren't in the spots of manufacture runs right now they need to put up a
09:34cricket number if they have any hope of getting back in the game there's a base hit to
09:37right Javi Baez makes it eight to two and the Tigers have a couple of runs starting to bubble
09:45something up here in the seventh much better at bat right there from from Javi staying with it just
09:51taking that and just punching it into right field one for three for Kerry tonight single in his middle at
09:56bat struck out in the first and fifth against Soroka Carpenter swing and a miss just a off-balance
10:03swing and Carpenter shaking his head as his tough start to the season continues two outs runner at
10:09first and here is flavor Torres and he punches this ball into center field so the Tigers have two on
10:16with two out and Colt Keith coming up and Colt Keith yes he has a couple of strikeouts but the
10:23early
10:24going here he's swinging the bat down the line and hugs the line that's a fair baseball it kicks off
10:31the
10:31side wall and dies in the corner Baez is home Torres is home it's eight to four there it is
10:39Colt Keith he's swinging a bat a hot bat in these four first four games but staying behind it again
10:45and maybe just maybe the Tigers aren't done can you get back to within one swing of the bat
10:51potentially tying the game that's kind of one marker as you're making your way back from a big deficit
10:57well the Tigers are back to within four that ball's cracked to right center field that's a base hit it's
11:03going to be eight to five and things are getting tense in the desert it was the same story all
11:10year last year
11:11that no amount of runs ever made Diamondbacks fans feel comfortable it is now eight to five that's going to
11:20be it for
11:20Ross and the Tigers have applied that game pressure just getting a base hit to draw ever bit closer
11:27long way from being over and it's Spencer Torkelson against the side wheeling right-hander Ryan Thompson that pitch won't
11:35count
11:35it's still three and one but Riley Green has gone first to third on two separate blocks by Thompson
11:42swinging the line drive down the left field line it's going to drop for a base hit
11:46Tigers are more than chipping away they're within two
11:50Green has scored Torkelson to second base we've got an eight six game here in the seventh inning
11:55you know when it was just a couple innings ago where everything was really light
11:58and everybody's smiling over there on that challenge play at second base and boy how things change
12:04it's gotten really tense really fast there's all kinds of thoughts swimming around in Ryan Thompson's head
12:12here's McGonigal 10th Tiger to come to the plate this setting way away now the Tigers have the potential
12:18tying run on base McGonigal started this inning with a walk and now he has walked for a second time
12:25and once again pitching coach Brian Kaplan heads to the mound to have a chat with Ryan Thompson
12:32and Dylan Dingler who crushed the ball his last time up deep as part of the ballpark
12:38to center field by the 413 marker strides to the plate that's inside the bases are loaded for the Tigers
12:45on the clear blue this game has totally been overturned
12:52Torrey Lovello is running an uncomfortable relay race with his bullpen arms in this seventh inning eight straight pitches out
13:01of the zone
13:01the bases are loaded for the Parker Meadows spot with Juan Murillo coming in out of the bullpen
13:08ground ball up the middle
13:09Cattell has it he goes to first that is in time and mercifully the seventh comes to an end
13:15the Tigers sent twelve men to the plate they score a half dozen runs
13:20tomorrow Vargas who will bat righty against the lefty Vargas hits it deep to left center
13:26this one's got some carry and it's gone held tomorrow Vargas gets one back
13:32it's exactly what the Diamondbacks need and they increase their lead it's now nine to six
13:38Spencer Torkelson last man standing for the Tigers got him
13:42and win number one is on the books for 2026 as Seawald shuts the door
