00:00E.J. Pullen, who struck him out the first game of the series when Pullen, or the second game of
00:06the series when Pullen was used on Tuesday night as the opener.
00:12In first baseman is Curtis Mead.
00:18Broken bat or something here, maybe?
00:21Looks like it.
00:23Yep.
00:38Cruze, Marcel Osuna on deck, and this is probably the only batter Pullen's going to face with Osuna to follow.
00:45The right-hander is up.
00:49And the Nats pen, showed him earlier.
00:52Marlon, 0-1.
00:56The other way, oh, spanked, and...
01:00House, with a tremendous play.
01:04Yeah, that went over 100 miles an hour.
01:08Opposite field, one hopper.
01:17Who's...
01:18Looked like he was kind of getting into a little mini and slump has hit the ball very well this
01:23last couple trips.
01:26Quite good to see.
01:27New pitcher will be coming on.
01:32That'll be it for Pullen.
01:35To his right patella tendon.
01:37He has now transitioned down to Bradenton, Florida to continue his rehab process.
01:43Starting next week, he's going to be base running.
01:47After that, he will have a better idea of resuming sim game activities and baseball game activities.
01:53But they're going to have to see how that base running goes first.
01:57But they did emphasize he's making really good progress right now, Brownie.
02:01So, good news for Jared Triolo.
02:03Look forward to seeing him back, Hannah, as Marcel Osuna hit that monster home run in the fifth.
02:10Faces Gus Varland.
02:16Picked up the save for the Nationals on Tuesday.
02:35First home run as a Pirate.
02:39First home run, Marcel Osuna is last time up.
02:48So, I want that one again.
02:50Very similar to the pitch he hit for home run.
02:52He did not face Farland, by the way, on Tuesday night.
02:58This ball to left field.
03:02Lyle there.
03:04That's a moment there where Lyle, glad he's playing deep.
03:10Yeah, I was going to say that kind of paid off for him that time.
03:13Ball was touched off if he wouldn't play in really deep.
03:18That would have been a little interesting.
03:24They're trying to take away any double there.
03:27Game also, but he basically plays no doubles from the first inning on.
03:47York fouls it away.
03:51Now playing right field, started at first base.
03:54Singled in his first at bat against the lefty starter, Foster Griffin.
03:58Has flied out and struck out.
04:00Pirates have out hit.
04:01The Nats 12-8, but trail 7-6.
04:28Remember, it was York who pinch hit for Brandon Lyle on Tuesday night.
04:37Isaac Mattson in the bullpen for the Pirates.
04:41And he stayed in the game to play third base,
04:43and he ended up batting in the ninth inning against Farland
04:47with two on and two outs and fouled out to end the game.
04:55Pirates fell 5-4, and Lyle did not get the chance to face Farland.
05:04He's on deck.
05:07But two outs, nobody on.
05:13And bounce to first.
05:14Nice little play there by Meade.
05:16Bucks go down in order.
05:18Seven complete.
05:19Nats.
05:20That backdrop that Hannah had set she was showing earlier in the ball game.
05:27Hannah was also wearing her pirate pants.
05:33Very appropriate.
05:35Kiberg Ruiz fouls the first pitch off against Isaac Mattson.
05:38A great set that the scoreboard crew got together down in Bradenton,
05:44and they recreated it here in Pittsburgh.
05:48We love a theme, Brownie.
05:49I had to be on theme for that today just to show everybody.
05:51Yeah, that wasn't by accident, was it?
05:52No, of course not.
05:54No, I know.
05:54Come on.
05:550-1 on Ruiz.
06:06There we go.
06:08The only thing that was missing, I needed a pirate's hat,
06:11and I think the outfit would have been pretty complete.
06:14Put me on the pirate ship.
06:15Yeah, yeah, there's got to be a bandana down there somewhere.
06:19Ripped to right.
06:21Nice play.
06:23Nick York.
06:26He's got a couple of nice jumps on balls.
06:28He's got a hit out his way already since he's been out in right field.
06:40Isaac Mattson, the Pirates went to him in the eighth inning the other night
06:46and stayed with him.
06:47See, there was a pitch in the ninth.
06:48Vowling numbers, he's pitched ten games already.
06:53He's out there every other night, seems like.
06:58He is the workhorse.
07:07Nassim Nunez.
07:13Walked a second time to the plate.
07:17And scored the third run of this game for the Nationals.
07:20A fourth spot in the fifth.
07:23This is a hot offense.
07:28They've been scoring a lot of runs this year.
07:32Would a big reason for that.
07:49It's going to be out of play.
07:53It's day one ball, two strikes on James Wood.
07:57Had an eight-game hitting streak come to an end on Tuesday.
08:04But again, he has reached base in ten of his last eleven games.
08:10That hit in the seventh inning.
08:13While Sisk.
08:17Second hit of the series.
08:19Two and two.
08:23Ashcraft went five and two-thirds.
08:25Gave up five to earn.
08:27Sisk.
08:29Gives up a run on two hits.
08:31Got one out.
08:33And Johan Ramirez.
08:37Giving up that go-ahead run on that hit-by-pitch.
08:41Wood lifts one to deep left.
08:45It's where the wall.
08:47Mangum tracks it down.
08:51And now tagging up and going 90 feet.
08:53And in scoring position, Nassim Nunez.
08:56It's going to be a home run in a lot of ballparks.
09:00You can see that win at work a little bit here, too.
09:04It just kept pushing it.
09:13HN Supermo.
09:17Jake Mangum.
09:19Here's Curtis Mead.
09:24Now it's that one way back.
09:26Look out, Billy Murillo.
09:28Right off.
09:29Belly almost get hit with it.
09:30Yeah.
09:31Right by his camera.
09:35There he is.
09:38Mr. Steady.
09:410-1 on Mead.
09:50This is me out of play.
09:52This is from Billy's camera.
09:58Kind of gave it a little nod.
10:00Yeah.
10:00Yeah.
10:16One ball, two strikes.
10:21Mattson looking for the last out of the eighth.
10:23Give the Pirates a shot going to the bottom of the eighth inning,
10:26trailing by one, trying to keep it a one run game.
10:33One and two, bounced third to first, out number three.
10:42Looks like they'll bring on the lefty, C.N.L.
10:44Mattson, those Rays lead the American League East currently.
10:49Half game up on the Yankees.
10:50They're playing the White Sox, trailing in Chicago this afternoon are the Rays.
10:54Here is C.N.L.
10:56Perez facing the lefty, hitting Brandon Lau.
11:00He's got a couple less innings and he's got games pitched.
11:06He's been doing a lot of short work.
11:08Now this was the matchup that did not happen on Tuesday night.
11:12I don't know if it would have anyway.
11:14The pitcher was the lefty, Mitchell Parker, and the Pirates lifted Lau in favor of the
11:23right-handed batting, Nick York, and they called on the lefty pitching.
11:26C.N.L.
11:27C.N.L.
11:27Perez to get York.
11:29York hit the ball hard, but right at the second baseman, Nassim Nunez, and hit into an inning-ending
11:35double play.
11:36C.N.L.
11:40One ball, one strike.
11:41C.N.L.
11:47Lau, his three at-bats came against the lefty starter Foster Griffin.
11:520-4-3, two strikeouts, and a ground out to first.
11:56It was a nice play made at first.
11:58C.N.L.
12:012-2.
12:02C.N.L.
12:11Lau's now 2-for-24 against lefty pitching on this season.
12:14C.N.L.
12:18Line drive off the glove of Meade.
12:23The Bitties hit for Lau off of C.N.L.
12:27Perez.
12:35Well, you don't want to leave your seat this game.
12:37No.
12:39I mean, every at-bat, back and forth, another look.
12:44Just ticked off the glove.
12:49So many little small things that are going different ways every inning.
13:04Two big innings.
13:05One was started with just a tick of a hit-by-pitch on the wrist on a check swing.
13:13And then they score four runs.
13:14And then we score four runs on an inning that was started with the bunt.
13:24Well, the Pirates have two challenges left, and Joey Bart decides not to use it.
13:28You can see he shrugged his shoulders, was disappointed in the call, and definitely should have challenged.
13:37He knows it now, but too late.
13:40One ball, one strike.
13:44Tells the pitcher, hey, you've got to wait until he's alert.
13:56Oh, and two on Bart.
14:03And now Bart calls time and steps out.
14:12More bullpen work.
14:13Clayton Beater up in the bullpen for the Washington Nationals.
14:230-2.
14:25One ball, two strikes.
14:30Pirates have both Justin Lawrence and Dennis Santana up.
14:34If the Pirates figure take the lead, see Santana.
14:44Joey Bart.
14:46Remember hit his first Pirate home run this season on Tuesday.
14:53And then he goes down.
14:58Connor Griffin, his last time up, he nearly homered.
15:03Instead, his first triple in the major leagues.
15:06Well, just inches from the top of the fence.
15:13Now, would have gone over that fence for no money.
15:17Got thrown out at the plate trying to score on the next.
15:21Now, would have gone over that fence for no money.
15:25Got thrown out at the plate trying to score on the next play.
15:34Last teenager with a triple in the major leagues.
15:37Juan Soto 2018.
15:39While with the Nationals.
15:49Couldn't hold up.
15:57So, you know, Perez is going to turn 30 in a few days.
16:04His first year with the Nationals.
16:11Out in front of Griffin, 0-2.
16:26All the years of experience on the mound.
16:28Talk about Perez.
16:32Over 260 major league games.
16:40Facing the kid, Connor Griffin.
16:47Checks.
16:48Called third strikeout challenge.
16:54Now, this is certainly a good spot to use it.
16:57ABS powered by T-Mobile.
17:00It's a strike.
17:02That still was a good spot to use it.
17:04It's a crucial spot in this ball game.
17:10Brian Reynolds going to pinch hit for Spencer Horwitz.
17:20And a scouting report.
17:23Hand delivered.
17:29Pitching coach, Simon Matthews.
17:35Now, Perez has already faced Reynolds.
17:39In fact, Reynolds, you might remember, lined the ball sharply back to the pitcher in the
17:45eighth inning on Tuesday.
17:49Certainly got Perez's attention.
18:05Something they all do nowadays.
18:06You got a pinch hitter.
18:07They got to go out and give the scouting report.
18:14I got a question for you.
18:23Ball one.
18:24What do you got?
18:25Well, did he get a scouting report for Griffin and Bart?
18:30No.
18:31He already had that.
18:32Where did he get it?
18:34The bullpen.
18:442-0.
18:45Reynolds, a rare pinch hit appearance over the years.
18:54He's only had 21 at bats as a pinch hitter.
18:596 for 21.
19:01That 286 lifetime average off the bench.
19:09Bouncing ball to first.
19:11And the Pirates will go to the ninth, still trailing 7-6.
19:16And now going back to first, where he started this game, Nick York.
19:20And the new pitcher is going to be Justin Lawrence.
19:25And let's go down to Hannah.
19:27Brownie, the other day in Chicago, Justin Lawrence visibly emotional after his appearance on the mound.
19:34He was taking a lot of blame and accountability after the game for his performance.
19:39And he was telling us that he was taking it pretty hard because he's never been a part of a
19:44team this competitive before.
19:45And he didn't want to be the guy that loses a game for this team.
19:50I mean, it just showed so much for him to speak after that game and take a lot of accountability.
19:54But it just shows how much confidence this team has in one another and wants to win for each other
20:00as well.
20:01So I handed this his first outing since that game Sunday at Wrigley Field when he gave up the two
20:07run single in the eighth inning to Michael Bush.
20:15Walked two in that frame.
20:20Two strikes here on Brady House.
20:24Pirates lost 7-6.
20:30He gave up the tying run.
20:40One ball, two strikes.
20:41One ball, two strikes.
20:45Certainly looking for a much cleaner outing here.
20:49A bounce back performance.
20:53This is with the sweeper to Brady House.
21:11Third base.
21:16Gonzalez not able to field it cleanly.
21:22Sloppy game.
21:23Yeah, third error of the game for the Pirates.
21:27Yeah, it's not physical errors either.
21:30Yeah.
21:31Quite a few mental errors.
21:35By the way, in terms of physical errors and the like, the Pirates came into this game with 10 defensive
21:42runs saved as a team.
21:46Tied with the Cubs for the fourth best and a base hit.
21:51And this will put runners at first and third and another error mentally because now they have two in scoring
22:00position.
22:08It's a good job hitting one.
22:10Watch him hustle out of the box to put himself in position to take that extra base in case throw
22:17at the third.
22:29Big mango now it's 2nd and 3rd.
22:32Nobody out and here's Abrams.
22:36Now they're going to pitch to him.
22:39They walked him intentionally in the 7th.
22:50Infield in all the way around.
23:06Up in front 0-2.
23:27And he's hit by the pitch thankfully.
23:32It's not a wild pitch.
23:35So the bases are loaded they checked to see if he swung at it.
23:38He did not so they're loaded.
23:41That's the sloppiness continues.
23:45That one went between his legs.
23:49Like that wild pitch earlier except that one.
23:52Nicked him in his calf.
23:54That was left leg.
23:58Jacob Young came to the plate after the intentional walk.
24:02Of Abrams and Johan Ramirez hit him.
24:05To bring in.
24:07The tying run.
24:10And a play at the plate but a bobble.
24:12They get one.
24:16Gonzalez maybe an outside shot at a double play.
24:18They get the force at the plate.
24:22And as you were saying it.
24:26Load the bases actually turns out to be a plus here.
24:30So if that's a tag play he might not be out at the plate.
24:33But it's a force out so even though you bobbled you still had plenty of time to to get it
24:39out.
24:39You don't have to worry about making a good throw down by the plate getting the tag down or any
24:44of that stuff.
24:45It's just a straight force.
24:51That's the advantage you have in the bases loaded.
24:55For beat Bebas.
24:57He's twice and he's almost hit.
25:16Ground ball first play at the plate there's one back to first double play.
25:22That was a good hit by pitch.
25:25Good strategy.
25:30The ground ball to Nick York.
25:34Back to Bart.
25:36Back to York.
25:37Pirates down by one.
25:39The great escape.
25:46You know we just got through talking about the advantage of the bobble.
25:50There's the when you have the the bases loaded you can always go home.
25:55And even if you don't get the double play you stop a run straight.
25:58That's right.
25:58So that's the the the negative of that is you know now your pitcher better not walk anybody.
26:05Well now Clayton Beater trying to save this game.
26:09Ball one to Jake Mangum who looks for his fourth hit or at least tries to find a way to
26:13get on base.
26:14Down a run in the bottom of the ninth.
26:16Very many hits but he has walked six.
26:22Ryan O'Hearn on deck to pinch hit for Nick Gonzalez.
26:24And that'll be O'Neal Cruz.
26:29Beter pitched two thirds of an inning on Tuesday.
26:32Broken bat in on his hands.
26:36Osuna lined out against Beter and Nick Gonzalez.
26:40Hit a one hopper to second base way in off the plate.
26:44Yeah let's say that was on his hands.
26:50Looked like it hit the bat down the.
26:53And that was on his hands.
26:54Below the brown paint.
26:56Well onto the handle.
27:02Lefties are 0 for 14 this year against Clayton Beater.
27:09He's walked three.
27:13Two of them intentionally.
27:20One of those things where you just.
27:23Kind of automatic.
27:26And you can get lefties up against the righty.
27:28You do it even if the numbers at least early on show.
27:32That he dominates left hand batters.
27:37One of those things where you're going to go.
27:37Thinking of bunting.
27:39And it's two and two.
27:41One of those things where you're going to go.
27:50I'm called.
27:55Mangum started the game off at the bottom of the first for the Pirates with a hit.
27:59Single to right field in the fifth and scored.
28:02Last time up single to left field off the lefty.
28:04P.J. Polin.
28:17Files it off.
28:31We're even going back to last year just looking at the splits.
28:34Clayton Beater.
28:35Gave up just seven hits in 40 at bats to left hand hitters last year.
28:44Gave up.
28:47Three and two is Mangum.
28:50Has worked the count full.
29:01Three and two.
29:05He's on Jake Mangum points to the dugout.
29:08Let's move it.
29:09Quite a hit bat right there.
29:22Mangum is on.
29:28And here is the pinch hitter Ryan O'Hearn.
29:33No stolen base attempts this year against Beater.
29:41There he goes.
29:43Taken for a ball.
29:44Throw down.
29:45And he's safe.
29:48Jake Mangum steals second.
29:52We'll also have a challenge.
29:56Pitcher challenging the ball call.
29:59Meantime, Mangum able to keep that foot on the bag.
30:04The stolen base.
30:04That was tricky.
30:06A.B.S. challenge empowered by T-Mobile and it is a strike so that call overturned.
30:18Washington is challenging the safe call at second and now the Nats are challenging the call at second.
30:32He definitely beats everything but at any point did he come off the bag when the tag was applied to
30:39him.
30:49Oh right there.
30:51Yeah that's what I was worried about.
30:53The hand came off maybe before the foot was on the bag.
30:57Which.
30:57But it is close.
30:58Which makes replay in this instance ridiculous.
31:02But was the tag on him when that was happening?
31:05It is so absurd.
31:07Because look he's kind of a tag in the dirt.
31:10So absurd that we go through this.
31:12He tags the dirt and then runs the glove up on his leg.
31:14Yeah.
31:15And by that time maybe the foot had hit the back.
31:23Not the intent of replay.
31:25Watch the foot.
31:30I don't know.
31:31I think it might have popped up.
31:33I hate this.
31:35So absurd.
31:36I hate this.
31:39Yeah he was easy safe but he might end up getting called out.
31:46Intention was to change.
31:50Correct the egregious calls.
31:52That's not what it is anymore.
31:58I don't know.
31:58His toes still on there.
32:00I don't know Greg.
32:02I just.
32:05The way this afternoon is gone.
32:08I just don't know what to think.
32:11As foot hit.
32:12You know actually he's blocked the bag.
32:15Yeah that's what the Pirates should do.
32:17The Pirates should challenge it after.
32:21If this call goes against the Pirates they should challenge.
32:24We got to call that at third not long ago.
32:27Well it's been it's been called in baseball it's been called a bunch this year.
32:31He blocked the bag with his foot.
32:33Yep.
32:35After review the call in the field stands a runner is safe.
32:39Good for baseball for.
32:42Keeping that.
32:43And not overturning that call.
32:46That was quick.
32:47Yeah.
32:53Stolen base.
32:56Oh one that call is a strike.
32:58I'll get him home.
33:05I know what that was when he walked and looked back to dugout with the.
33:09Fingery.
33:09I'll be running.
33:12I'll be at second.
33:22One ball two strikes.
33:27Again keep in mind how difficult.
33:30Beater has been against left-handed batters.
33:37Going back to last year to include last year.
33:44Two and two.
33:46Tying run in scoring position Ryan O'Hearn pinch hitting for Nick Gonzalez.
33:55Tying run in scoring position Ryan O'Neal Cruz on deck.
33:582-2 pitch.
34:00It's a piece.
34:19O'Hearn's first pinch hit appearance as a pirate.
34:242-2 count.
34:28Oh.
34:29Hits him.
34:31And it's first and second with no one out.
34:37What a game.
34:38Yeah.
34:38This game has had everything and.
34:42Sloppy on both sides.
34:44The.
34:46Possible hitting run.
34:48Goes on.
34:50A ball.
34:50I think this ball actually bounced to the dirt.
34:52Before it came up and got him to the side of the foot.
35:06Again the pitching coach out.
35:08O'Neal Cruz.
35:10Has faced Beater once previously and struck out.
35:14And there's some words for.
35:16Mangum.
35:17Tony Beasley talking to the.
35:20Man in scoring position.
35:22The tying runner.
35:23O'Hearn at first.
35:27O'Neal Cruz a chance not only to tie it but to win it.
35:31He has had.
35:33In particular two strong at backs his last two times up.
35:38Including his double.
35:41In the fifth inning.
35:43The hardest hit ball in baseball this year.
35:46Strike.
35:55Think that was a strike.
35:57I don't know.
35:59Owen won.
36:03Bouncing ball shortstop.
36:05Quick flip to second for one.
36:07They'll never turn two.
36:09One out.
36:12And now the tying run in scoring position.
36:15But you have in Marcel Ozuna.
36:18An absolutely great double play candidate if you're the Nationals.
36:23Now what do you do?
36:27You've got great speed on the corners.
36:30You try and steal a run.
36:32Or at least.
36:34Put Cruz in motion.
36:36Because again.
36:37Osuna.
36:39Big time double play candidate.
36:42That's what the Nats are looking for.
36:47Strike one.
36:49Not really a huge lead at first base.
36:55Sooner the monster Homer in the fifth is first as a pirate.
37:02There goes up.
37:03Cruz stopped.
37:05Like he was going to go.
37:07And then he put on the brakes.
37:19Two strikes on Osuna.
37:27Struck him out.
37:29And now the Pirates are down to their last out.
37:32And it's Nick York again.
37:33That's a man who came to the plate on Tuesday.
37:39With runners at second and third.
37:41And the Pirates down a run.
37:42And he fouled out.
37:49He was looking all the way.
37:51The whole time he ran down there.
37:53He wanted to know if they were going to throw or not.
38:00And Nick York given a second chance.
38:04Come through with two outs.
38:08He had the walk-off hit against the Orioles.
38:13The opening series at PNC Park.
38:21One ball.
38:22One strike.
38:31Lyle out left field.
38:34Winning runs second.
38:36He's playing 325 feet from home.
38:42Peter looking for his third save of the season.
38:52Two and one.
38:57Nick York.
39:06The two-one count.
39:12Three and one.
39:16Brandon Lau on deck.
39:32York sitting 310 against righty pitching this season.
39:36And he's aboard.
39:37They are loaded for Brandon Lau.
39:42It's almost how this game had to come.
39:45It had to be this.
39:47Bases loaded.
39:49Especially against with these guys coming to the plate.
39:52York and Lau who did not get the chance on Tuesday.
39:58Now the opportunity.
40:06He's singled off the glove of the first baseman.
40:09Facing the lefty Perez last inning.
40:19Remember lefties still don't have a hit against this pitcher.
40:22This year.
40:23Strike is called.
40:25O'Neal Cruz.
40:27Passing to the fielder's choice.
40:34Lefty batter is 0 for 15 against beater this season.
40:420 and 2 on Lau.
40:450 and 2 on Lau.
41:06And now.
41:07How's it off?
41:31Another O2 pitch.
41:35One and two six career grannies.
41:38For Lau.
41:41He'll take anything here.
41:45Anything.
41:46This game could end on back to back wild pitches.
41:52The way the game's gone.
41:55That would be.
41:59Fitting as far as anything.
42:03Brown ball off the glove.
42:05And off two gloves.
42:09It's tied.
42:10It is important.
42:11What a game this is.
42:13It is tied up.
42:14It went off.
42:15At seven.
42:16A base hit.
42:17And Beasley looked like he was trying to wave Cruz home.
42:21Two gloves.
42:22I kind of thought Cruz might try and score on this.
42:26Off the glove of the pitcher.
42:30And off the glove of the second baseman Nunez.
42:33And you can see Mangum's frustration.
42:35He wanted Cruz to score.
42:37Yeah.
42:37And off the glove.
42:38Oh Beasley's trying to send in.
42:41Trying to send him.
42:49Cruz is looking back over his shoulder to see what happened.
42:52It's none of his business what happened.
42:53He should just be looking at Beasley.
42:58And ball one.
42:59Joey Bart now a chance to be the hero.
43:03Joey Bart.
43:06One for four in this game.
43:11Two walk-off hits in his career.
43:18One ball, one strike.
43:19Another look.
43:23Tony Beasley wants him cut.
43:25Come on.
43:25Nope.
43:25He's not looking at Beasley.
43:31It's tied at seven on the RBI hit by Lau.
43:41Beasley on that replay, you can see his first reaction was pointing at third,
43:46which makes the runner think, stay here.
43:52So I didn't see that on that first replay, but it was mixed messages from Beasley.
43:59One ball, two strikes, two outs.
44:04And a fly ball.
44:06Looks like we're going extras.
44:07Looks like we're going extras.
44:09Looks like it.
44:10And yes, heading to the 10th as Young makes the catch.
44:15The Pirates scratch out the tying run onto the 10th.
44:18The runner at second base, the automatic runner.
44:26Santana's numbers brought to you by Valvoline.
44:29Very, very good opposition batting average is 0-74.
44:36Stop the runner.
44:40Beasley will be the runner at second.
44:42Carlos Ruiz is the batter.
44:53Hebert Ruiz.
44:56In the air.
44:58Shallow left.
44:59That will not move the runner.
45:00Catch made by Mangum.
45:04Top of the 10th inning, one out.
45:05Well, that's big when you get that first out.
45:08The runner still at second.
45:10Now you have an opportunity to get out of this inning without giving up that run.
45:17Yeah.
45:17And when you're a road team, you try and score at least two.
45:21Because the home team has the same advantage of that automatic runner, of course.
45:26Now, seeing Nunez takes ball one.
45:30But if you don't score even one.
45:31Yeah, that's a huge disadvantage for you if you don't score that one run.
45:45Let's hit hard to right center field.
45:48Oh, what a great jump that was by Reynolds.
45:52Woo, what a jump.
45:56Well, that won't get much attention.
46:00But that's a heck of a play.
46:02Also, it's because Reynolds did it.
46:04He's supposed to be blow average out there.
46:06Yeah.
46:09That is a heck of a play.
46:11That was big.
46:12And ends up getting there to make it look like an easy play.
46:15Another reason why he'll not get any attention.
46:18Good read.
46:18Ran straight to the ball.
46:22Now, James Wood.
46:30Orlando Rebolta going to pitch the bottom of the 10th.
46:36Pirates 2-1 in extra innings.
46:41Nats are 0-2.
46:50Two outs, a 2-0 count on Wood.
46:52Curtis Mead on deck.
46:58That's hit hard into right field.
47:00And Reynolds will fire toward the plate.
47:03But they get that run home.
47:06A hard hit by Wood.
47:07Scores Vivas.
47:10Yeah, that's too bad.
47:13One more out.
47:14What an advantage that would have been for us.
47:35Now, Curtis Mead.
47:41Remember, Santana had the 9th inning save last night.
47:51Didn't face Wood or Mead.
47:55There goes Wood.
47:57Throw down strong and safe.
48:00Stolen base.
48:03Four steals on the year now for Wood.
48:09I'm not surprised that they would try and do this.
48:13The game on the line.
48:14They'd need another run.
48:20Pirates will not challenge.
48:330-2 on Curtis Mead.
48:35Pinch hit in the 7th.
48:37Stayed in the game to play first.
48:40And this is third at bat.
48:55Chopper.
48:56Nick York air.
49:00Four airs for the Pirates today.
49:11New York's played a strong game defensively up until that point.
49:15He's bounced around.
49:17Started at first.
49:19Went to right.
49:22And now Brady House.
49:33Don't need to stop on that.
49:36Fly ball left.
49:39Mangum back.
49:41Makes the catch.
49:42It's a topsy-turvy, wild Kennywood ride today at PNC Park.
49:49His first career home run.
49:51This triple that brought in the 5th run of the game in the 6th inning.
49:57Tied it.
49:58That close to being a homer.
49:59And it was impacted adversely by that win that brought the ball back 6 feet.
50:06It was rough.
50:09Henry Davis pinch running.
50:11Automatic runner at second base.
50:14Orlando Rebolta.
50:16The pitcher.
50:19The second outing of the season.
50:21The big league level.
50:24Connor Griffin.
50:27Takes a strike.
50:32Rebolta's numbers just been in one game.
50:35Nominating.
50:38Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing.
50:40That was on Monday.
50:42One scoreless.
50:46Broken bat.
50:47Chance for an infield hit.
50:49And it will be.
50:50Connor Griffin.
50:52Showing off that speed.
50:54First and third.
50:55And nobody out.
50:56In the bottom of the 10th.
50:58Going down like a nice bond.
50:59You know, you're trying to get the runner over.
51:02That's very important to get to tying run to third base with nobody out.
51:13They want some ball just barely blowing out there, not even leaving the grass.
51:18Not only get the runner over, you know it's going to be a base hit for him.
51:21And it's Reynolds.
51:23Four career walk-off hits for him.
51:27Tying run at third.
51:29Winning run at first.
51:38Rebolta, his 20-26 Nationals debut.
51:43A 1-2-3 seventh inning on Monday.
51:45Retired Nick York, Spencer Horowitz, and Griffin.
51:56Last year, Rebolta, in 24 innings, gave up 19 runs.
52:01Six home runs.
52:03Six homers in 24 innings.
52:06Orlando Rebolta last year at the big league level.
52:21Yeah, yeah, the ball, one strike.
52:31How is this one going to end?
52:38This was the old days without the runner in second row.
52:40We might play like 15 or 16 the way this game's going.
52:44Oh, crazy.
52:44Bad-looking swing and a miss at the 97-mile-an-hour fastball.
52:52Rebolta got Reynolds to offer.
52:55It was almost like Reynolds really didn't want to swing at that pitch.
53:00Now he's in the hole, one and two.
53:25One ball, two strikes.
53:32Still one and two.
53:41Reynolds was a pinch hitter in the eighth inning
53:45and grounded out against the lefty, C&L Perez.
53:49Stayed in the game to play right.
53:53Made that fine catch in the top of the tenth.
53:56The ball hit by Nunez.
53:58Another one-two pitch from Rebolta.
54:01Two and two.
54:13And that's score in the top half of the tenth.
54:16Those runs are unearned when the automatic runner scores.
54:20Two-two.
54:23Struck him out.
54:28One away and now Mangum.
54:32Mangum's been on base all over the place four times, three hits,
54:36has scored two runs, stolen base.
54:41Mangum mayhem, as Kevin Young likes to call it.
54:47Well, the good thing right now, he's not really a double play candidate, so it kind of
54:54gives them a little decision to make.
54:58They have a slower runner than it's, no doubt.
55:00Everybody's just going to get two here, but now, ground ball could tie the game up.
55:12Pops this up out of play.
55:14Third baseman, house, playing very tight.
55:18The edge of the grass, close to the bag.
55:20First baseman, Meade, holding Griffin.
55:23Middle infield shortened up.
55:39Oh, man, Griffin, a fake move towards second and a swing and a miss and a slider.
55:52It's going to be Orlando Revoltas' first career Major League save in his 28th big league appearance
56:00over the last three seasons.
56:04Right-hander from Cuba trying to save this one for the Nationals.
56:08He's out in front, 0-2 on Mangum.
56:20In his big league career, in just under 29 innings, Revoltas struck out 28.
56:28Benghams, tough to strike out.
56:34But he's in the hole, 1-2.
56:40Just gets, he's bat on that change up.
56:46That's all he's trying to do.
56:48Somehow, someway, stay alive.
56:50Just get the ball put in play.
57:09Another 0-2 pitch to Jake Mangum.
57:15Just does roll it towards short.
57:17Could be, too.
57:18And it is a game-ending double play.
57:22The Nationals escape and split this four-game series at PNC Park.
57:29A heartbreaker for the Pirates.
57:32And a sloppy game.
57:35The Nationals come out on top.
57:38Incredible.
57:38Yeah, this was going to be one you go home and do a lot of thinking about.
57:45There's so many things that happened that if we didn't do this, the game could have been way different.
57:54But it wasn't.
57:56It is what it is.
57:57And now you have to react properly.
58:01Learn from anything that you see is a mistake in this game.
58:04And you've got a tough team coming in.
58:07Team leading the American League East.
58:10Tampa Bay.
58:11Yeah, this is one of the toughest losses so far.
58:14Game number 19.
58:15Pirates feel like, no doubt, they should have won.
58:17And had they played cleaner baseball, they would have won.
58:20But it is the Nationals outlasting the Pirates.
58:25This wild ride today here at PNC Park.
58:278-7 in 10 innings.
58:29Yep.
58:29Yep.
