00:01Uphill tonight for the Giants will be the left-handed veteran the two-time Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell
00:07this year at six starts still looking for his first giant win he's had to deal with a couple of
00:11injuries that have put him on the I.L. Springer's been hot now the 1 0 pitch swing and there's
00:16a high pop up foul ground first base side Flores comes over near the coach's back now the wind blows
00:22it back toward fairground and he makes the catch right next to the foul line in foul territory one away
00:28again
00:29Snell throws fastball he struck him out swinging 96 miles an hour and blew it right by him two down
00:36and here is Vlad Guerrero jr. 3 2 pitch swing and there's a liner in the left field just to
00:44his right a couple of steps Conforto makes the catch three up three down strong first inning for Snell they
00:50will face left hander you say Kikuchi you say it was better against the Astros in his last outing after
00:55a tough stretch swung on and missed and
00:58Kikuchi gets Estrada good life on that fastball from Kikuchi early on here mixed in a changeup and a curveball
01:05in with his secondary pitches it keeps hitters on their toes the pitch to Ramos and he sends this one
01:11up the middle but cut off with relative ease and Leo makes the grab to record the out there's two
01:17down swing and a miss what a good start for you say three up three down with a couple of
01:22strikeouts both pitchers looking sharp in the first Turner who had a lot of success as a Dodger
01:28against the Giants two and one pitch swing and there's a high drive into center starting back was Ramos now
01:35in a little bit and to his left makes the catch one away the three two inside Jansen held off
01:42and he will take the trot down to first and this does indeed bring up Davis Schneider and this is
01:47into right center for a base hit Jansen will put the brakes on rounding the bag first and second one
01:53out the one two pitch swing and there's a high fly ball into shadow left
01:58in comes Conforto with Fitzgerald going out and Conforto makes the catch with two down here comes Dalton Varshow the
02:051-0 pitch swing and there's a high drive out into right center over to his left into the big
02:11part of the yard with plenty of room shy of the one in track caught by Ramos inning over
02:16Matt Chapman will start things off for the Giants the former Blue Jay the 3-2 the wind up and
02:22delivery and he got him on the junk the slider at 85 and he sits down Chapman it's the third
02:27strikeout of the game for Kikuchi Kikuchi the 1-2 pitch they're trying to go high and he got him
02:32swing and a miss Flores sits down and you say Kikuchi is dealing early
02:37he has fanned four of the first five Kikuchi trying to mow down the Giants in order yet again for
02:43a second straight inning to start this game swing and a miss got another one and you say Kikuchi is
02:50dialed in early here tonight he has faced six batters and he has struck out five of them and it's
02:56the number nine hitter Leo Jimenez the 3-2 to Jimenez inside and as you just talked about finding a
03:03way to get on he did it right there he'll take the trot down to first
03:06Springer has been red hot 1-0 pitch ground ball towards short Fitzgerald has it flips to second one wisely
03:13to first got him double play
03:15Snell the leadoff walk but then he gets the ground ball nicely done two down just like that and Bo
03:21Bichette coming up now Bichette swings hits a ground ball to short Fitzgerald has this one he throws to first
03:28and just like that the Blue Jays are retired
03:30Kikuchi working quickly here gets the sign from Jansen and the pitch and that one sent high in the air
03:37by Matos out into shallow center charging in making the grab is Dalton Varshow there's one down
03:43and Kikuchi came back with the 2-2 and he got Fitzgerald to bite on the curveball his sixth of
03:51the game and we're only midway through the third inning
03:54the pitch he hits one in the right field base hit Brett Wisley's the guy who gets their first hit
04:00of the night and first base runner a two out single
04:03Tyro Estrada comes up Wisley now on first and swinging at the first pitch but it's a line drive straight
04:09at David Schneider
04:11who makes the grab in left to sit down the Giants we head to the fourth inning
04:16Guerrero jr. hitting from the right side waits and he grounds this one towards short Fitzgerald has it
04:22throws to first in plenty of time to get Vlad out number one that's three straight ground balls to shortstop
04:29he swings and hits a pop-up he got totally tied up there wisely at second 46 pitches for Blake
04:36Snell two outs into the top of the fourth
04:38one two pitch runner goes from first and it swung on and missed strike three tried to hold up and
04:43just had no chance
04:45Elliott Ramos who is heading to the all-star game this year a dozen home runs he is their center
04:51fielder just a remarkable story
04:53he swings here and drives this one to deep center field Varsho back at the wall it is gone
05:01Elliott Ramos in an 0-2 count
05:04to deep right center
05:06his 13th home run of the year wow what a swing
05:111-0 Giants
05:13extraordinary power to one of the deepest parts of the ballpark
05:17Ernie Clement leading things off here in the fifth Ernie Clement with a ground ball some tricky spin there and
05:24he's safe
05:25off and Clement hustling down the line is safe at first and the Jays have the leadoff man on now
05:31Snell
05:32throws swing and there's a high pop fly back of third out into the shallow outfield goes
05:39Chapman and into foul territory to make the catch one away Clement holding on at first three and two the
05:45count
05:45runner not going the pitch is
05:47strikes recall a fastball right in there
05:50but I think that one did freeze Jimenez similar to that last plate appearance good pitch by Snell
05:55Snell sets the runner leads from first and goes and now the throw goes to first Flores throws to second
06:00and the tag is made by Wisely
06:02and the inning is over Patrick Bailey switch hitter batting right-handed facing the left-handed throwing
06:08Yusei Kikuchi
06:09now the 1-0 pitch swing line drive into left center field base hit and that jumped off his bat
06:15with authority a hundred two miles an hour
06:18here comes Luis Matos here's the pitch now
06:20there's a line drive in the right center base hit coming the second is Bailey turning the corner heading for
06:25third
06:26the right fielder springer up at the ball and he'll throw back into second
06:29Luis Matos with a single to right center and the Giants are in business runners at first and third with
06:35nobody out
06:35that strike three one down and there's that big strikeout that you said he needed Joe one out three two
06:43swung on and missed another strikeout for Kikuchi number nine
06:47blew him away with the fastball stayed with the heater and beat him
06:52ground ball to short backhanded by Bichette and in time to get him and what a job by Kikuchi
06:58first and third nobody out and the Giants do not score the 3-1 delivery
07:04is outside and Jansen does it again as he gets on
07:07Spencer Horwitz is coming to the plate
07:10so he is going to hit for Davis Schneider
07:13there he goes
07:15and Horwitz hits it in the air to left center
07:19Ramos still going back and he can't make the catch
07:23Jansen is going to be held
07:25he had gotten to second and had to see if the ball was going to be caught
07:29so he'll be held at third on a long double to left center by Spencer Horwitz
07:35he's coming out of the game so they need an outfielder and Kevin Kiermaier is going to run for him
07:41for the Jays now with runners at second and third as Ernie Clement comes up
07:56and all of a sudden it is three to one Blue Jays
08:00Ernie got into this slider and did not miss it and you don't need speed to score from second base
08:06on that one
08:0711 strikeouts not only a season high for you say Kikuchi
08:12and there is number 12 to match a career high
08:16well I think the story of the night is that fastball from Kikuchi
08:19and most notably at the top of the zone he continues to use the upper part of the zone
08:25one down and here is Luis Matos ground ball to third
08:29Clement to second one on the first for two
08:33Clement to Jimenez to Guerrero and what an outstanding seven innings so far tonight

08:55Blue Jays lead
08:57Tyler Fitzgerald had struck out two times in a row
09:02and then this time he goes deep
