00:01Ronaldo Lopez the starter for the Braves of everybody who's thrown at least 75 innings in the big leagues this
00:06year he's got the lowest earned run average of the ball. He's having a career year. Payoff pitch. Called strike.
00:14Lopez will certainly take it and Solaire is down to start the ball game. That brings Lamont Wade Jr. up
00:20to the plate. 3-2 to Wade. That is ball four. The Giants have a one out base runner. Elliot
00:25Ramos 294 hitter. Another payoff delivery.
00:30They say he went around. Ramos tried to stop. He could not. Two away. That puts the bat in the
00:36hands of Patrick Bailey. Lopez deals. He got him. Struck him out. Down looking goes Bailey. Lopez strikes out the
00:46side. 22 years old making his second big league start Hayden Birdsong. Yeah coming on big fellas 6-4 2
00:53-15. Got him with the fastball. Birdsong begins his night with a strikeout.
00:58One down here in the first inning. Here comes Ozzie Albies. Fly ball. Left field. Not that deep. Conforto with
01:06the sunglasses on. Out number two. Here's Marcel Ozuna. Ozuna got him. With the slider. Hayden Birdsong. An impressive opening
01:17inning here in Atlanta.
01:18Mike Yastrzemski who was just reinstated today. Had been on the 10-day I.O. with a mild left oblique
01:24strain. Yastrzemski with Conforto at first. Two outs.
01:27He did and he hits a base hit into right field.
01:30Well he hit it very hard. Conforto stops at second. Just didn't loft it. If he had gotten under that
01:35one a little bit as hard as he hit it. That was flying out.
01:37And now the Giants go to Nick Ahmed. The ninth batter in the order. And he hits this high and
01:42pretty deep to left. Waldo has room. In front of the wall. He has it. Two stranded. On to the
01:49bottom of inning number two.
01:50Is it me? Or does it seem like Austin Riley just kills the Giants?
01:53He does. And this is not the month you want to face him. He likes the month of July in
01:58his career.
01:59Could really set the tone for the start of the second half. Well maybe that'll set the tone tonight. Kiss
02:04that thing goodbye.
02:06Austin Riley will bomb to the second death.
02:09And took a fastball up in the first pitch of this at bat. He got another one and he was
02:14all over it. Getting the timing down just by watching one and seeing it and getting a feel for what
02:19that fastball looks like.
02:21And my goodness for Austin Riley 407 feet into that second death.
02:252-2 to Murph. Sean Murphy gets into one to left center. Does that have enough juice? Yes sir. Back
02:33to back. Riley and Murphy making it 2-0 to get louder.
02:38Austin Riley's 407 was impressive. How about 430 in the gap against the changeup. And not a bad one. It
02:45was down. But Sean Murphy gets all barrel on this one.
02:48And drives it out. And drives it out. A no doubter into left center field.
02:51And just like that. A 2-0 lead. And here is the aforementioned Adam Duvall.
02:57Could it be back to back to back?
03:00Get out of here ball.
03:02Oh it's off the top of the wall.
03:05Duvall into second.
03:07With a double. He just missed it.
03:09And the Braves are getting to the rookie Hayden Birdsong right now.
03:13Forrest Wall climbs in.
03:14Wall hits a fly ball to shallow left.
03:18Conforto has it.
03:20Two down.
03:21Now Zach Schwartz will hit.
03:24To center.
03:26Ramos.
03:26Well carrying pretty well out there.
03:29But it's out number three.
03:31So four walks now for Lopez.
03:33And there are two on base.
03:35Matt Chapman to the plate.
03:37Right center.
03:38Keldick sprints over and back.
03:39And he got it.
03:42Another great play in center field.
03:44By Jared Keldick.
03:46Lopez loves it.
03:48And twice he has done this to Matt Chapman.
03:51Matt Chapman has seen enough of Jared Keldick.
03:53We have not.
03:54Another great play in the gap.
03:56From the Braves center fielder.
03:58Top of the order for the Giants.
04:00Jorge Soler is 0-2 at two strikeouts.
04:03He blasts that one to left field.
04:05Wall is back.
04:06It is gone.
04:08Into that empty Giants bullpen.
04:11The Giants are on the board.
04:12Jorge Soler keeps swinging at his tenth of the year.
04:16It's 2-1.
04:18And that's the swing we were talking about.
04:19The Giants have to be able to get on top of that heater.
04:21And with that swing and his strength, that was out in a hurry.
04:24Here is Lamont Wade Jr.
04:27Wade high drive.
04:28Right field.
04:29And this game is tied.
04:32It's gone.
04:34A booming home run off the bat of Lamont Wade.
04:38He's trying to hit the cow.
04:404-42.
04:42Jeez.
04:43Holy smokes.
04:44And now it's the Giants who go back-to-back.
04:48He almost fell down on the 3-1 swing.
04:50And that's how you're supposed to swing 3-1.
04:53And then he barrels that one up 3-2 to tie this one up.
04:55That's what I'm talking about.
04:57Runners move up to second and third.
04:59One out.
05:00And the infield in for Kelnick.
05:02He throws.
05:02Kelnick strikes out swinging.
05:05Great chain job.
05:06That's pitching right there.
05:08That is pitching.
05:09Still got to get through Albies.
05:10Albies first pitch swing to left.
05:13Conforto is there.
05:15And he's got it.
05:16And the Braves lead to in scoring position.
05:18And we are still tied at 2.
05:20Michael Conforto leads off against Dylan Lee.
05:22Conforto rips that one.
05:24A fair ball.
05:27Our first base umpire got a little turned around.
05:30Conforto into second.
05:31And he makes it.
05:33A hustle double to start the sixth for Michael Conforto.
05:37Here's Brett Wisely.
05:38Wisely's going to bunt.
05:39And pushes it right to third.
05:41Well executed.
05:43Sacrifice moves Conforto over.
05:45Giants are going to have a pinch hitter here.
05:47Think they're going to bring in Luis Matos.
05:49Matos on the ground.
05:50And it kicks off the glove of Riley.
05:53Rolls away.
05:54Conforto's going to score.
05:55He hit it so hard.
05:57It was a tough play.
05:58And that's a run for the Giants.
06:00They go ahead 3-2.
06:01You'll take it anyway, right?
06:03You said it.
06:04He wanted to swing the bat.
06:05Goes to the curveball yet again.
06:06And that ball was barreled.
06:08Hot shot to Riley.
06:09A two-hopper.
06:10Tries to make the play.
06:11Squirts on by.
06:12The Giants will take it.
06:13So Ramos down to second.
06:14And Bailey down to first after the walk.
06:17With one down that brings Matt Chapman up to the plate.
06:20This time on the ground to Riley.
06:21On his second for one.
06:26That's what Pierce Johnson and the Atlanta Brands were looking for.
06:29Jesse Chavez takes over.
06:31Using Nick Ahmed.
06:32First and third.
06:33One out.
06:34Ahmed pulls that one into left field.
06:36Coming over.
06:38Wall catches.
06:39Wisely tags.
06:40And the throw is going to come to second.
06:42Ahmed gets the sacrifice fly.
06:45And the Giants lead 4-2.
06:46Take that insurance run.
06:48One down here in the eighth inning.
06:49But back to the top of the order with Kelnick.
06:51Run across the board.
06:52Maybe this will get something going.
06:54Jared Kelnick staying on a roll.
06:57He will cruise into second.
06:59Stand up double.
07:00Well here's Ozzie over three.
07:03Ground ball.
07:04Is that going to get up the middle?
07:05Yes.
07:06Kelnick around third.
07:08One run game.
07:09Ozzie with two strikes does a great job here.
07:12Just finding some outfield grass.
07:14Did not hit it particularly hard.
07:15But hit it right back up the middle.
07:18For an RBA single.
07:19And that's a pretty good pitch.
07:20As you can see at 83 miles an hour down and away.
07:22But he gets such good plate coverage does Ozzie Albies.
07:25And it shows up in a big spot here in the eighth inning.
07:28Here's Ozuna.
07:293-2.
07:30Struck him out.
07:30Here's the throw.
07:31He is safe.
07:33Now the tying run is in scoring position.
07:35Matt Olsen on the ground to Wisely who throws out Olsen.
07:41So the Braves get the one.
07:44Elliot Ramos.
07:45Ramos drives that one down the right field line toward the corner.
07:49It is a home run.
07:52Ramos was just watching it.
07:55He knew it was either gone or foul.
07:57And Elliot Ramos straight down the right field line makes it 5-3.
08:02And his power the other way.
08:05That's amazing.
08:06He had no idea where the ball was and it was a home run.
08:10Camilo Duval is the closer for the Giants.
08:13Austin Riley to lead it off.
08:15That one hit to left center.
08:17Ramos is going to make the catch and tumble over.
08:21What a play in medium left center.
08:24Just enough hang time on that one.
08:27And Ramos takes a hit away from Riley.
08:29One out.
08:30And the Braves now down to their final out here in the ninth.
08:33Here's the 2-2.
08:35He got him at 101 miles an hour to finish off a Giants win.
08:41Here in Atlanta the Giants start off a very tough road trip.
