00:12And the home of the brave.
00:28Hi again everybody, alongside Steve Lyons, I'm Tom Brenneman, welcoming you to All-Star Baseball 2004.
00:33Steve, a great night for baseball.
00:35So nice to be under the lights again and playing baseball.
00:38It should be a great crowd out here tonight as well.
00:42The heart and soul of the Diamondbacks, Council hit .282 with two homers and 51 RBIs before neck surgery.
00:49The Anaheim Angels.
01:17Here's a defensive setup for the Angels.
01:32Steve, here's a look at today's starters.
01:35Washburn started 14 games for the Angels at home during the regular season.
01:39He ended up with a 5-3 record and a 3.79 ERA.
01:43On the road, Johnson went 10-2 with a 2.63 ERA.
01:48He gave up just 71 hits in a 102 innings pitch.
01:53He struck out 126.
01:58Leading off for the Arizona Diamondbacks, the shortstop, number 5, Coney Womack.
02:09High and outside for a ball.
02:11And it's 1-0 now for Womack.
02:16A high fly ball to the right.
02:20Run down by Salmon.
02:23Now that brings up Spivey.
02:31Swung on and missed by Spivey.
02:34And the pitch.
02:43Here's the 1-1 to Spivey.
02:47Hit and bending foul.
02:50Double!
02:55Out!
03:00He'll take it himself, and it's out number 2.
03:02You've got to love having a first baseman that has that kind of versatility and range on your club.
03:07He gets all the way over and makes the play and then takes the bag himself.
03:11Slow roller to short.
03:13On the ground, should end the inning.
03:16Out number 3.
03:18Good play.
03:19He moved well to his left and then got the out at first.
03:22The Cy Young Award winner in 2002 for the fourth straight year and 5 overall.
03:27Johnson went 24-5 with a 2.32 ERA.
03:32Oh!
03:33Takes for a ball.
03:35Here's the 1-0.
03:37Text on.
03:40Foul ball on a good cut.
03:45Out!
03:55Here's the 2-1.
03:57Text on.
04:01That pitch is headed for the right center field gap.
04:11Text on.
04:12In the second with a double.
04:14That's just a fastball on the outside part of the plate,
04:17and he drives it for a double.
04:21Fine jumping catch by Womack.
04:25They turn 2 for the double play.
04:41Good looking slider, but no swing and a strike one.
04:45Nobody on, 2 away.
04:47Here in the bottom of the first.
04:49The Spivey.
04:51Out!
04:52He's out at first.
04:53Oh, what a nice play.
04:55Moving to his left and then getting me out at first.
05:02The third baseman, Matt Williams.
05:10Foul ball right off his hand.
05:21The 0-2.
05:26Swing and a miss, and that's three.
05:28He just challenged him with the great gas right there,
05:31and the batter had nothing for him.
05:38Fastball, ball one.
05:45Hard grounded to Spezia.
05:48Spezia steps on the bag for out number two.
05:51On the road, Finley hit .253 with 11 homers and 43 RBIs.
06:02Nobody on, 2 away.
06:08Knocked back right up the middle.
06:14That was some gas right down around his knees,
06:16but he drove it for a line drive base hit.
06:25Doesn't swing and takes for a ball.
06:28Two away in the top half of the second.
06:33Ball two, low and inside to Bautista.
06:37And here's the pitch.
06:41Ball three to Bautista.
06:48The pitch is fouled off.
06:58Washburn finds the inside corner for a strike.
07:01The payoff.
07:07Fine play there by Kennedy.
07:09Nice job right there by timing that jump just right
07:13and bringing in an almost certain base hit.
07:15Versus lefties, Anderson hit .284 with 11 homers,
07:18and he knocked in .41.
07:24Up high.
07:26Want to know the count to Anderson.
07:32Ball two, low and inside.
07:40He lines the pitch down the third base line, but fouled.
07:48Low, ball three.
07:56Swung on and hit deep to right.
08:00Just does make it out.
08:02Home run.
08:03A leadoff homer for the Angels.
08:06Well, when he hit this ball,
08:07I could tell that he didn't quite get all of it,
08:09but he got enough of it
08:10just to get it over the fence for a home run.
08:24At home, Gross hit .246 with 53 RBIs.
08:37The 0-1.
08:41Hit in the air to center.
08:45One away.
08:46Well, he got over to that ball in no real hurry,
08:49and he gets a few extra style points on the easy catch.
08:52The 0-4 can't fight.
08:54The 0-4 can't fight.
08:56Oh!
08:57Low and off the plate.
08:59Here's the 1-0 to Wooten.
09:03Hit!
09:04Good-looking slider, but no swing, and a strike one.
09:11Oh!
09:12Ball two, low and inside, to Wooten.
09:15The 2-1.
09:18Oh!
09:20Oh!
09:22Spezio on deck.
09:25Ball four.
09:26Ball four to Wooten.
09:29Scott Spezio had a tremendous year last season,
09:32hitting .285 with 12 homers and 82 RBIs.
09:38There he goes.
09:40Foul.
09:41Foul by Spezio.
09:48Oh!
09:49One and one as the fastball misses.
09:55Wooten breaks for a second.
09:57That pitch lined foul.
10:06Wooten digs for the steal.
10:08The runner started on the pitch, but it's fouled away.
10:12Gonzalez in foul territory.
10:15He was running full speed and then just kind of stuck his glove out there.
10:18And look out, everybody.
10:20It's Christmas time.
10:24There's ball one.
10:31Down the line.
10:33Fair or foul.
10:34Gone.
10:35Home run to left.
10:39Oh, Tommy.
10:41Look how far this ball's going to go.
10:43Someone's got to go down and ask the pitcher how he holds that pitch.
10:46Oh, Tommy.
11:00Oh, Tommy.
11:06Look how far this ball's going to go.
11:17Good pitch, but not a strike.
11:19Ball one.
11:25Just five in.
11:27Throws a rocket to first.
11:29We head to the third.
11:31Anaheim leads it.
11:32Three nothing.
11:41Leading off the top of the third inning.
11:44The catcher.
11:46Chad Mollert.
11:51Oh, fastball.
11:53Ball one.
11:59The pitch is lifted into short left.
12:02Great leap and catch by Eckstein.
12:05Well, that's a great jump on that ball by the infielder.
12:08Sometimes it's hard to get a read on a ball like that because of the overspin,
12:11and it turns a routine play into a very difficult play.
12:18Low and away for a ball.
12:21Here's the 1-0 to Council.
12:25Ball.
12:29The 2-0.
12:33Ball.
12:36The 3-0.
12:40Ball four.
12:41Council draws the walk.
12:43He hit a fly ball to the right fielder his last time up.
12:53Just below the strike zone for a ball.
12:56Here's the 1-0 to Womack.
12:59Council attempts a steal.
13:01And it's a pitch out.
13:04Council slides in a second with a stolen bait.
13:07Here's the 2-0 to Womack.
13:10High and away.
13:12The 3-0.
13:16Hard grounder to Spezia.
13:19He steps on the bag for the second out.
13:23Well, he just tried to get on top of that fastball,
13:25but he couldn't quite do it and grounds out.
13:32There's ball one.
13:46There's ball two to Spivey.
13:52A swing and a miss by Spivey.
13:56Here's the 2-2.
14:00The curve misses.
14:02Ball three.
14:06That pitch hit hard.
14:11Council is across the plate.
14:17Two-out double by Spivey.
14:19Great example of gap-to-gap power right there
14:23as he sends that ball into the gap,
14:24scoring a run and stopping with the double.
14:29The 1-0.
14:33Bounce down to Kennedy.
14:35Out number three.
14:38Washburn through the front three.
14:40The Angels lead it 3-1.
14:50Johnson set to go here in the bottom half of the third.
15:00Slider over and he misses.
15:01Strike one.
15:08Strike at the knees.
15:090-2.
15:10Strike two.
15:17He makes a great play
15:19and, man, did he make it look easy.
15:21That's a nice play right there, Tom.
15:23That ball's really spinning
15:24and it's tough to stay with it.
15:26That play is really a lot tougher than it looks.
15:32Oh, there's ball one.
15:40That one pulled down the line.
15:47Bautista fields it cleanly.
15:51Nice at bat right there as he jumped all over that pitch
15:54and drove the ball right into the right field corner.
15:59Oh!
16:00Takes a ball.
16:02The 1-0.
16:05Oh!
16:062-0.
16:11Oh!
16:12Slider misses.
16:14Ball three.
16:30Look out with men in scoring position.
16:33Anderson hits 3-17 with 10 homers
16:36and 96 RBIs in that situation.
16:39That's strike one to Anderson.
16:47Spivey grabs it.
16:48Fires to first.
16:52Nice play.
16:53Moving hard to his right
16:54and then making the throw to first.
17:02Good-looking play by Williams.
17:06Anaheim in front.
17:074-1.
17:09Matty really struggled on the road
17:11hitting just 188 with five homers
17:14and 14 RBIs.
17:19Hit in the air to center.
17:22First down.
17:23He is under it.
17:25Out number one.
17:27You hear so much in this day and age
17:28about guys don't steal bases like they used to.
17:31When you talk to managers or scouts
17:34that have been around this game for a long time, Steve,
17:36many will tell you it's because pitchers
17:37have done a better job at shutting down the running game.
17:39A lot better job of paying attention to guys
17:42that can run
17:43and also utilizing the slide step,
17:45which is kind of a new innovation in the game
17:47over the last eight or ten years, I'd say,
17:50where guys don't lift their leg as high
17:52as they normally would.
17:53They're much quicker to home plate
17:54and that makes it a lot tougher to steal a base.
17:57And when you look at guys' stolen base percentages
17:59last year,
18:00I'll tell you what,
18:01they were terrible in some cases
18:03and that tells you
18:04that the pitchers and catchers
18:05are doing a much better job of holding runners.
18:07You know, now here's an area where,
18:09and you and I have talked about the radar guns
18:11and the use of a stopwatch in judging talent,
18:14and we both agree that that's gone too far.
18:17But from this standpoint,
18:19the running game,
18:21mathematics have really added up
18:22to shut down running games.
18:25I mean, they've got it broken down so much
18:26to how long it takes the pitcher to get it to the plate,
18:29the catcher to get it to second,
18:30and how fast is a runner trying to steal set?
18:32And what happens is the knowledge
18:34hasn't caught up on the other end of the game.
18:37They've really done a great job
18:39of trying to shut down the running game,
18:40but baseball has done a lousy job in general
18:43trying to teach guys to be better base runners.
18:45As you said before,
18:46they rush their athletes to the major league level.
18:49This guy can really run.
18:50He's stealing a million bases in double A.
18:52He gets to the big leagues,
18:53and he doesn't know how to steal a base.
18:55He doesn't know how to get a good lead.
18:56He doesn't know how to read pitchers.
18:57He doesn't know how to read their moves.
18:59As we see a fly ball to run for the third out.
19:02And he thinks he can steal a base
19:03just because it's fast.
19:04But guess what?
19:05That's going to get you thrown out a lot.
19:06The designated hitter,
19:09Sean Hukin.
19:12Oh!
19:20He hits it deep down the left field line,
19:23but foul.
19:24A ball!
19:34The one-two.
19:39Good-looking pitch,
19:40but doesn't get the call.
19:42Ball two.
19:42Here's the two-two.
19:46Misses with a fastball,
19:47and now it's ball three.
19:49Here's the payoff pitch.
19:53The heater blows him away,
19:55and it's strike three.
19:57That's a good fastball right there.
19:58He took the hack,
19:59but he came up empty.
20:00Strike three.
20:07Good-looking slider,
20:08but no swing,
20:09and it's strike one.
20:14Strike two.
20:15To Spezia.
20:21Ball one.
20:22Ball one.
20:22Low and in.
20:23To Spezia.
20:24Here's the one-two.
20:26To Spezia.
20:28Ball.
20:29Let's it go by for a ball.
20:31Here's the two-two.
20:35Oh!
20:36Three and two as the heater misses.
20:39The payoff.
20:44It's slowly toward Sagin.
20:46Out.
20:47Out.
20:47Number two.
20:49He homered his last at bat.
20:57Ball.
20:59Fastball.
21:00Ball one.
21:05Ball.
21:06High and inside for a ball.
21:09Kennedy would be next.
21:13It's a swing and a miss by Molina.
21:21Hard grounded to Womack.
21:28Save!
21:48Kennedy loved to hit at Edison Field.
21:50He hit 321 at home in 2002.
21:56There's ball one.
22:02The fastball misses.
22:042-0.
22:08Ball.
22:09Up and off the plate.
22:11One on and two out.
22:15Good swing.
22:16But fouled it off.
22:22Pulled foul by Kennedy.
22:28Overbay in foul territory.
22:39Bautista stepping up.
22:41And he's 0 for 1 on the day.
22:43Danny Bautista.
22:48Ball one.
22:56Found out of play.
22:57First base side.
23:03Smoke.
23:06Fastball still the best pitch in baseball if you locate it.
23:09Number 16.
23:11Chad Mohler.
23:20Rope.
23:27One out single.
23:28By Mohler.
23:29Top of the fifth.
23:30It's a 4-1 affair.
23:38Up in the zone.
23:39But a strike.
23:41The 0-1.
23:46Popped up on the 0-1 pitch.
23:52Kennedy.
23:53Makes a catch.
23:54And that's out number two.
23:55If he can keep up this low pitch count.
23:57It's going to no doubt help him later on in the ball game.
24:05He takes for a ball.
24:07Here's the 1-0 to Womack.
24:15Here's the 1-1 to Womack.
24:202-1 as the heater misses.
24:27Up and away for a ball.
24:30The 3-1.
24:37The runner at first will be moving on the pitch with a count full and two out.
24:43Rounded to short.
24:44Ground ball should end the inning.
24:47Out number three.
24:49Inning over after the tremendous pick over at first base.
24:53Y'all gonna make me lose my mind.
24:56Up and down.
25:07Johnson set to go here in the bottom half of the field.
25:16There's ball one.
25:23No chance there.
25:25A fastball.
25:26Strike one.

26:29Makes the catch.
26:31Good looking play right there by the right fielder.
26:33To get over to that ball.
26:35Make the nice running catch.
26:36Right at the foul line.
26:40Salmon.
26:41Swings and knocks the first pitch foul.
26:51Caught by the pitcher.
27:01He doubled in his last at-bat.
27:03Playing the second baseman.
27:07Junior Spivey.
27:11In there for a strike.
27:13To Spivey.
27:19That ball driven well to right center feed.

28:192-0.
28:20One on, one out.

30:01Well, they get the out at first after a nice play moving hard to his left.
30:10That pitch is drilled.
30:18Slowing down.
30:19And it'll stop at first with a single.
30:21Ah, he just jumped all over that high fastball.
30:29He pops it up to the left side of the infield.
30:33Two away.
30:35Are you kidding me?
30:36Am I seeing fundamentals out there?
30:38A two-handed catch covering the mid.
30:40Just to make sure the ball didn't come popping out.
30:45Up and in.
30:46A ball.
30:47And it's 1-0 now.

31:42In the right fielder, the right fielder is there as the sixth inning comes to a close.
31:49The baserunners don't get around.
31:51Here in Anaheim, the Angels lead it 4-1.
31:54They need to string some hits together here just to make some things happen.
32:00In close and late game situations, Finley was a .297 hitter with seven ribbies.

32:42Hard grounder to Kennedy.
32:45One down.
32:46Well, he's been getting a lot of ground ball outs tonight, and that's the way he likes to try to
32:50pitch.
32:51Keep the ball down in the zone.
32:52Usually, if you get those ground ball outs, you've got a great chance of winning.
32:56And it's 1-0 now to Bautista.
33:03And there's strike one to Bautista.
33:11Ball two.
33:13Low and away.
33:18And it's strike two on the changeup.
33:21Here's the 2-2.
33:26Swing, and a miss.
33:28Strike three.
33:29Well, that's the big overhand curve, and it fooled him.
33:32Strike three, and he'll be thinking about that at bat as he walks back to the dugout.
33:39Good pitch, but not a strike.
33:41Ball one.
33:47Ball two.
33:48Two low and away.
33:54Fastball misses.
33:563-0.
33:57Nobody on.
33:58Two away.
34:01Right in on his hands, and fouled off.
34:10A swing, and a miss.
34:12Curve ball, strike two.
34:20In the center field.
34:22Out number three.
34:24Just an easy play right there.
34:26No say-hey kid, but he got onto it with plenty of time.
34:36Kennen will lead things off for Anaheim.
34:39The second baseman, Adam Kennen.
34:46Fouls that one off with a good cut.
34:50Come on!
34:571-1 as they stay away.
35:05Blown by him.
35:06The fastball for strike two.
35:15Sliding, catching, robbed the batter of a base hit.
35:18Now that is a big lead catch right there, Tom.
35:21You couldn't do that.
35:31There's ball one.
35:39It goes in the left, and that's the second hit of the game by Eckstein.
35:45Known as the heart and soul of the Anaheim Angels, Darren Erstad hit .283 with 10 homers and 73 RBIs.
35:55High and tight for a bull.
35:57Here's the 1-0.
35:59First down.
36:01Eckstein.
36:02Prize to steal.
36:03Not a whole lot to that play.
36:04They just gummed him down.
36:06I'm not sure if he got a great jump on that, though.
36:09The 1-1.
36:12Over for a strike.
36:20Takes for a ball.
36:25Here's the 2-2.
36:30On the ground.
36:31Should in the inning.
36:33Out at first.
36:34Anaheim in front.

36:53Donald steps up as the pinch hitter.
36:57Pinch hitting for the designated hitter, number 18, Chris Donald.
37:07Strike one on the changeup.
37:16Donald hits it foul.
37:24Curveball misses.
37:26Ball one.
37:32Pulled foul by Donald.
37:38One away.
37:39The D-backs are running out of outs.
37:42Womack is 0-3.
37:49Oh!

38:52Second wall given up by Washburn.
38:54In close or late game situations,
38:57Gonzo hit just .213 with 11 RBIs.
39:01Washburn, who in seven and two-thirds innings pitch,
39:04gave up four hits,
39:06struck out three,
39:06and surrendered one run.
39:08He's still on the hook for another run,
39:11depending on what happens now.
39:15Pops it up.
39:20Rodriguez going to get it.
39:23Just couldn't quite get on top of that pitch,
39:25then popped it straight up.
39:27Anaheim sending out numbers three, four, and five,
39:30the heart of the order.
39:30The right fielder,
39:33Cam
39:36Pannells.
39:38There's ball one.
39:45Good looking pitch,
39:47but doesn't get the call.
39:49Ball two.
39:53In there for a strike to Salmon.
40:00In the left field.
40:08He's going to stop at first with a single.
40:11Anderson.
40:12Here's one of three.
40:19That bloop will drop.
40:21Base hit.
40:26He's going to stop at first with a single.
40:29Bottom of the league.
40:30Anaheim threatening.
40:33With two on.
40:34Johnson,
40:35who in seven innings pitch,
40:37gave up nine hits,
40:38struck out one,
40:39and surrendered four runs.
40:41He's still on the hook for a couple of more runs,
40:44depending on what happens here.
40:46There's ball one.
40:59Three singles in a row
41:00for the Angels.
41:02A strikeout would sure be nice in this situation.
41:04Anything else is probably going to score a run.
41:08No chance there.
41:09A fastball strike one.
41:14Ball one,
41:15low and in
41:16to Wooten.
41:18The one-one.

41:33Hard grounded
41:34to Overbay.
41:36Out number one.
41:40Oh,
41:40he was jammed
41:41by that splitter
41:42and may get the easy ground up.
41:49There's strike one.
41:55Pulled foul
41:56by Spezia.
41:59Let's go.
42:07Gonzalo.
42:08In time
42:09to make the cap.
42:12It's probably a good idea
42:13to hold the runner at third
42:14because that ball
42:15just wasn't hit deep enough
42:16to risk it.
42:20Oh!
42:21Split finger fastball.
42:23Can't get the call
42:23and it's ball one.

42:46but he drove it
42:47for a line drive base hit.
42:50Let's go!
42:53Out number three.
42:55He was under that ball
42:56in plenty of time
