00:30It's the Tampa Bay Rays squaring off against their hated rivals, the Boston Red Sox.
00:38First pitch coming at you right after the break.
00:45And getting the start for the Red Sox, Cutter Crawford.
00:49But Chris, he hasn't exactly been stellar here on his own mound.
00:53Well, I'll say this.
00:53Every player wants to perform well at their home ballpark.
00:57In front of their fans, in front of the city.
01:00And you know this guy no different.
01:01He wants to be more effective here.
01:03So, you know, you look at the numbers.
01:05They haven't been great at home.
01:06I'm sure he wants to turn that around.
01:08And we'll see if he's able to start that in this one.
01:16And we're underway from Fenway.
01:26That misses the zone.
01:28Ball two.
01:41And a base hit up the middle.
01:43So, a man on base to start the inning.
01:49Good start for him to this ballgame tonight.
01:51I always talk about it.
01:52Get a knock in your first at bat.
01:53It just makes your confidence.
01:56It's such a higher level for the potential of having a big night.
02:20Yeah, that's fouled all.
02:26Just getting started here from Fenway Park.
02:34And a swing and a miss.
02:36And there's one down.
02:39Now, a look at Kevin Cash's lineup for the Tampa Bay Rays.
02:43We could be in for a power showcase today with the wind blowing out.
02:47A lot of lift and separate, Chris.
02:50We know hitters are in this era definitely trying to hit the ball in the air
02:54regardless of the conditions.
02:55But I think even a little more so, there's margin for error
02:59if you can get the ball up in the air.
03:01So, you know, you'll see at times, I'm sure, with two strikes,
03:04what looks like a half swing that can get out of the ballpark
03:08with a hitter who's got decent pop.
03:09That pitch clips the outside corner.
03:11That is strike two.
03:22Strike three, and that's two in a row.
03:24Well, interesting, he's looking very comfortable out of the stretch
03:27after giving up the leadoff single.
03:29Back-to-back strikeouts.
03:30So, they haven't been able to move that runner up,
03:33get him into scoring position, and try to have a better chance of scoring.
03:35I tell you, good job so far on the mound.
03:37He just needs one more out.
03:38And now the center fielder, Richie Palacios.
03:43Hey!
03:55Here comes the 0-1.
03:57This one in the air center field.
04:00And that'll do it.
04:04They get a leadoff single, but leave them stranded.
04:06Now the Red Sox will get their shot.
04:09No score.
04:13Back inside Fenway Park, and starting on the mound for the Rays, Shane McClanahan.
04:18And, Chris, pitching on the road has not been particularly kind to him.
04:23Yeah, and you don't want to be too quick to say that he can't pitch on the road.
04:27Sometimes, you know, it's just a matter of luck.
04:30It's not having a field difference between the bullpen mound to the mound out there on the playing field.
04:36Don't know what it is, but I know this.
04:38He's got good enough stuff to overcome and get it done on the road as well as at home.
04:42So, we'll see what he's able to do in this one.
04:47Close one.
04:48Doesn't get the call.
04:50Ball one.
04:55Ground ball to the right side.
04:58Diaz takes it himself.
05:00One gone, bottom half for first.
05:02Check out the Red Sox lineup.
05:04Batting second, a really important guy for them.
05:07Jaron Duran.
05:09Well, he's an important part of this lineup, for sure.
05:11I mean, there's no doubt about it, Boog.
05:13It's somebody that they try to feed off of.
05:15He does a lot of things, you know, very well up there at the plate.
05:18He's got a presence about him.
05:20And, you know, he's a guy that you really kind of like to watch swing the bat.
05:23Up the middle, and he knocks it down.
05:26Gets it there in time, though.
05:28And even with his speed, they get the out.
05:30Hey, man, four pitches, two outs.
05:33That is an excellent pace.
05:35Still stepping in for Boston.
05:37Carlos Narvaez.
05:40Out to short.
05:42Williams.
05:44Tosses to first.
05:46Third out, and that ends the frame.
05:48Nothing doing for Boston.
05:50Scoreless after one.
05:51You can leave in them schemes if you want to.
05:55And we're back here at Fenway Park, and stepping in for the Rays, Jake Fraley.
05:59Fraley.
06:07Oh, he doesn't get the call.
06:09Ball one.
06:17Hey!
06:19Ricky Holliday, our umpire behind the dish.
06:22Known as pretty fair umpire for both hitters and pitchers.
06:25Yeah, I think that's right, Boop.
06:26There is a little inconsistency on the corners of the plate.
06:29You can't always be sure how it's going to go with those borderline pitches as the game progresses.
06:51Keeps the impact going with a foul ball.
07:00One and two here.
07:17Gets a piece there.
07:18We'll do it again.
07:30Out towards right center field.
07:32Connor Falefa has a beat on it.
07:35One up, one down.
07:40That is good.
07:42The good luck.
07:43Tartan.
07:44Really young.
07:55What about the fans at Fenway?
07:58Would they let you have it from time to time?
08:00They're definitely intelligent baseball fans, which is awesome.
08:05They're not waiting for something to happen.
08:07They can smell a big inning or anticipate a situation setting itself up.
08:13One thing I found that was very cool was making a great play to end the inning and running off
08:18the field and getting a standing ovation, even at times when you're not a player on their team.
08:25As long as you're not winning, they will celebrate and applaud a great play on the field.
08:30These fans here, they love and respect baseball.
08:34The one-on.
08:36Fly ball down the line.
08:39Obreu on the run towards the line.
08:42And it's a foul ball.
08:48The one-one.
08:51Well struck left field.
08:53Carrying well.
08:55Jumps, but it's off his glove.
08:58The relay to second.
09:00And in there with a double off the wall.
09:03That's a great job of just getting to the ball, let alone getting the glove on it.
09:08I'd have been shocked if he made that catch.
09:10Great effort on that play.
09:13Digging in, it's the speedy outfielder Chandler Simpson.
09:16Golden opportunity right here.
09:21That's in there.
09:23It's 0-1.
09:33Ground ball right side.
09:35Over to first.
09:37And to a lay down.
09:41Got it, not the third baseman.
09:43Number six, Taylor Walls.
09:58Oh, that pitch is out.
10:08The one-on.
10:11Swing and a ground ball.
10:12That's a base hit as a run scores.
10:20Comes through with the RBI.
10:22So impressive that he didn't get tied up or jammed on that pitch inside.
10:26Instead, good quick hands allowed him to get the barrel to it.
10:30Just shoot it up the middle of the field for that knock.
10:33So the raise batting order turns over.
10:35And now the first baseman, Yandy Diaz.
10:44Quick move to first.
10:45Low throw.
10:46And it gets by.
10:47And he airmails it out of play.
10:49Look out.
10:58Man on second.
11:00Two down.
11:01Shot into the gap.
11:02And that should bring in the run.
11:04Headed for the plate.
11:06In comes the run from second.
11:10Cut off.
11:10Throw to second.
11:11And in it's second with an RBI double.
11:14Well done.
11:14Drives in the run.
11:15Pretty much a model swing on that one as he ripped it into the opposite field gap.
11:20And I'm sure he's going to be watching that one back on video.
11:22Because that's the kind of swing you want to bottle.
11:25So many positives that led to that knock.
11:33Ball, that's out.
11:43In the air, right field.
11:46And that is that.
11:50Three runs for him here.
11:52And they move ahead.
11:53Down to the bottom of the second.
11:54Raise three.
11:55And the Red Sox nothing.
11:56It's an AL East back jump.
12:00Bottom half of inning number two.
12:02Joe stepping in for Boston.
12:04The Tristan Casas.
12:09A 3-0 lead is great.
12:11But you can't get too comfortable.
12:13Got to stay aggressive.
12:14Keep attacking hitters.
12:15Try to cruise through this ball game.
12:17Right through there for a strike.
12:25Nice grab.
12:27To first.
12:28And very nicely done for the out.
12:31I wasn't sure if he was going to get to this one or not.
12:34Had to go a pretty good way there in the shadow right field.
12:36But then after that, it's a tough angle after you square up your shoulders to throw to first base.
12:41Not the normal position, but a really good job defensively right there.
12:48And that drops in for a strike.
12:50And that drops in for a strike.
13:04Hard hit right side.
13:07Already two out here in the home half of inning number two.
13:11The center fielder, number two, Isaiah Kiner-Falefa.
13:16Two outs, base is empty.
13:18Here is Isaiah Kiner-Falefa.
13:23And the first pitch fastball is in for a strike.
13:31Foul ball there.
13:36The 0-2.
13:44Two down, nobody on.
13:48Cut on and missed.
13:49And it's a strikeout.
13:51And that is the inning.
13:53Red Sox go down 1-2-3.
13:55They trail in this one, 3-0.
14:00Back in Boston, at the plate now for the Rays is the DH, Junior Caminero.
14:13Well, these Rays doing a good job of putting the ball into play.
14:17And that makes things more challenging on the defensive side.
14:20And here's a stat for you, Boog.
14:22They're making contact with more than 85% of the pitches that they're swinging at.
14:26It's pretty special stuff.
14:28Not so good if you're out there on the mound.
14:39Next offering is foul back.
14:471-2 now.
14:53Swing and a bouncer.
14:54Foul!
14:55The kick's foul.
15:07This guy's a fun guy to watch taking it bad.
15:09He just battles up there.
15:10He doesn't take a pitch off at all.
15:12Makes it so difficult on the pitchers out there.
15:15You can tell they get frustrated with how long it takes to put him away.
15:18Derby.
15:21Zips it across.
15:22And one away in the top of the third.
15:26Up next for Tampa Bay.
15:28The center fielder, number one, Richie.
15:32Palacios
15:37right through there for a strike
15:49down the middle for a strike
15:51and it's 0-2
15:52well I didn't like those first two pitches
15:54down an 0-2 hole
15:55he's going to have to battle
15:56hope he gets a mistake
16:02swing and a miss
16:04struck him out
16:05chased the fastball up the ladder
16:07for strike three
16:08thought it was a pretty good pitch
16:10top of the strike zone
16:11we're seeing more fastballs
16:12in that location
16:14hitters especially
16:15with two strikes
16:16have to be ready to pull the trigger
16:23Fraley
16:24the next to hit
16:25takes outside

17:49multi-time all-star
17:5128 years old
17:53a former first round pick

17:57and that one is in the dirt
17:59and that's ball two
18:00last couple of pitches
18:01breaking balls away
18:02I think he's going to have to come firm
18:04inside
18:05to be able to open up that location
18:07if he wants to go back there
18:08later in this count
18:09into center
18:11Palacios
18:11makes his way towards it
18:13pulls it down
18:14and he makes the catch
18:15and there's one away
18:17batting in
18:18the third baseman
18:19number five
18:19Caleb
18:23Nervis
18:30Nervis
18:30got that changeup up

18:33and he'll take it
18:34but doesn't want to make that mistake again
18:40bounce to the right
18:41and that chance handled
18:44to first
18:45they get him
18:46but it was pretty close
18:47well he certainly didn't look comfortable
18:49having no fluid on that play
18:50and later in this ball game
18:52this could come back to bite him
18:53if a ball is hit to him
18:54and he's playing that same position
18:58two down bases empty
19:00Connor Wong
19:01up next for the Red Sox

19:28in today's game
19:29not that many fastball counts
19:31but hitters still in the back of their minds
19:33they're looking for one
19:342-0 changeup call right there
19:36excellent pitch selection to go with
19:39in the dirt
19:40three and one
19:52breaking ball in there for a strike

19:55saying to himself
19:55I've got to get a fastball here
19:57just spins a get me over breaking ball
20:00to bring the count full
20:01Arundo
20:03the throw to first
20:04three up three down
20:06inning over
20:07nine straight retired here
20:09to start the game
20:10you're watching
20:11Tampa Bay Rays baseball
20:13on the show
20:15out of the fourth
20:16and stepping in for the Rays
20:18Carson Williams
20:39that one in there across the letters
20:41hill challenge thought that was a ball
20:46and the strike call will stand so they'll lose their first challenge
21:01this one popped up foul ground first base side
21:05one away man he just couldn't lay off right there those high fastballs they just look
21:10really good because they're high level but they're just about impossible to get the barrel to
21:27hey
21:41pulls it in for the out that swing right there tells me he's seeing the ball pretty well I know
21:46it didn't produce a hit but he made solid contact and that's all you're looking to do anytime you're
21:51at the plate and now here's a speed threat outfielder Chandler Simpson
22:06two down nobody on top half of inning number four
22:14swing and a ball popped in the air that one gets down for a hit so a two out knock
22:19keeps the inning
22:20alive he made that look easy keeping his bat in the zone on a plane for a long time that
22:26leads
22:26to a high contact rate and more barrels move even when you don't get it great it's still
22:32hit hard enough to duck something in like that in front of the center fielder
22:41runner on the goal pitch in for a strike throw save that's a stolen base well he picked over once
22:49just
22:49before the pitch to check on him but that didn't seem to slow up his jump on the pitch at
22:53all I
22:53think that guy's been studying some video awesome job to be prepared got the timing down and he gets
22:58in the scoring position
23:01man it's second
23:03that one's in there no balls two strikes and a bat like this is almost over as it begins in
23:10this
23:10situation you have no idea what the next pitch is going to be you just got to hope that you
23:14can make
23:15contact foul ball it stays nothing in two
23:27got it he picks up his fifth strikeout on the hill so no runs here in a base hit no
23:33errors and one left to the bottom of inning number four now raise three and the Red Sox nothing it's

28:56it
28:56let it get deep let the ball travel but I haven't seen that adjustment made so far
29:01so we'll see if they can make it with the at bats they have left

31:14weather got you confused
31:15but
31:16when you walk in my house
31:17pick your shoes up
31:18I love my
31:19now Richie Palacios
31:22the center fielder number one Richie Palacios
31:34the Red Sox with some bullpen action Justin Slate the hard-throwing righty is up and loosening
31:40Weissert also throwing
31:47late swing foul to the left
31:54ball to strike the pitch
31:58in the air left field
32:00Durant settles underneath it
32:02one down
32:06up next for Tampa Bay the right fielder Jake Fraley
32:16yep that ball went out
32:24early a 6-3 lefty 23 years old and he was a fifth round pick in 2023
32:32clips the corner that strike two
32:45right back to him on the mound
32:48slings the first two quick outs to open the top of the sixth
32:52the batter number seven now it's the shortstop Carson Williams one for two
33:06hey
33:06hey
33:16this one in the air center field
33:19Connor Falefa settles underneath it and that is that
33:24Rays go in order one two three
33:26but they lead to three nothing
33:33back here at Fenway Park
33:35Joe stepping in for Boston Marcelo Meyer
33:43he's a bad ball hitter so even if you get him to chase pitches outside the zone he still might
33:48beat you not an easy out by any means
33:51and a big swing and a miss
33:53and it really looks like these hitters have been in between with their timing today
33:57good fastball excellent slider
33:59but they've not been able to commit to one velocity and stay there
34:04and here's a look at how he's using his pitches in this one
34:10up next for the red stuff the third baseman number five Caleb Durbin
34:18hey he's in the top ten for most stolen bases in baseball right now singe you can't ignore him when
34:24he gets on base
34:27up the middle fires the first on the run and he beats the throw very close right there
34:35the third baseman number 12 Connor Wong
34:45runner on the first with Wong gone next to hit Connor Wong
34:49runner on the goal there's a ball
34:52throw to second save
35:10and another ball
35:17just missed
35:19pretty frugal guy he is very efficient with the pitch count in this one
35:26and there's the automatic
35:28one out the runner at second here at the bottom of the sixth on the ground right side but that
35:35rolls foul
35:41they all pitch in the air right field fraley in position and there's two away
35:52up next to the red stuff the right fielder will
35:58right here
36:06now this one gets away from the catcher
36:09they'll throw to third
36:10tags
36:11he's in the third of the wild pitch
36:13even with a good secondary lead sometimes it's hard to see just how far that ball's gotten away from the
36:19catcher
36:20and if you can make it to third base
36:21pretty much standing up
36:23well that time he seemed to have a pretty good read
36:25gets the third safely and now he's just 90 feet away from scoring
36:33Durbin on third with two out
36:37foul off to the right
36:47swing and a miss struck him out
36:49had him out front for strike three
36:52another frame in the books as the perfect game falls by the wayside
36:56this is Rays baseball on the show
37:01back here in Boston we go to the top of the seventh
37:04and now the catcher for the Rays number 48
37:13clearly didn't come out of his hand the right way left that curveball way up
37:25out to short
37:27Meyer
37:29that's the first out the top of the seventh
37:32up next for Tampa Bay
37:33the left fielder
37:34Chandler
37:36Simpsons
37:49yeah
37:59that one catches the corner for a strike
38:09cut on and miss struck him out too long
38:12though that's a curveball that people like to describe as a hammer or Uncle Charlie and you can see why
38:18it's not a looping slow curve he throws it hard and it gets plenty of bite on the end
38:25wall
38:26wall in the box again takes a strike
38:37two down nobody on and it's found away
38:51here's the 0-2
38:54up the middle
38:55Meyer
38:57here
38:58and it's a 1-2-3
38:59and it's a 1-2-3
38:59raise three and the Red Sox nothing
39:08now
39:09on the mound now Joe Boyle
39:11hasn't pitched in the last three days
39:14he's
39:17leading off
39:18for the red
39:19thumb
39:19the left fielder
39:21Duran
39:23Duran
39:42Duran
39:44and there's one down
39:48up next for the red thumb
39:50the catcher
39:51Carlos
39:53North
39:53oh yeah
40:03that's a ball
40:07that's a ball
40:09hey
40:0991 on the slider right there
40:12that's a hard one
40:13that's a low-end fastball for some pitchers
40:15swing and a miss as he chases that one darting out of the zone
40:21stays alive
40:25the raise
40:26leading by three
40:28here at the bottom of the seven
40:30swing and a line drive slicing into right field
40:34two way down
40:36up next for the red thumb
40:38the designated hitter
40:40Tristan
40:40now batting Tristan Casas
40:43he's grounded out a couple of times
40:49on the ground
40:52over to Diaz
40:54Red Sox
40:55go 1-2-3
40:56raise
40:57three
40:57and the Red Sox nothing
41:05welcome back as we take a look at their upcoming schedule
41:08schedule
41:08number two
41:10Yossi
41:11yeah
41:20way inside gets out of the way
41:31top
41:32al-2-3
41:51ball
42:00get on the ground a short buyer first out in the top of the eight the batter
42:10number eight second base Jonathan
42:25and time called prior to the 0-1
42:33the 0-1 up the middle and it finds its
42:40way through for a head and a man aboard
42:48timing on the swing is good able to shoot
42:50the ball up the middle didn't square it up as much as he probably would have
42:53liked but that's a good approach paying off
42:57and now junior Camonero
43:15and a base hit and out to a board
43:18knocks it down
43:21the throw comes in too late and now they have runners at the corners
43:25the swing like that can help you come out of the struggle we saw the numbers
43:30coming into the ball game but all he's trying to do at this point is help his
43:34team win
43:43that clips the corner
43:57lefty out of the stretch runners at first and third
44:01could use a ground ball here something in the infield runner at first base get to get out of this
44:09fall off foul some real good life going through the zone on that one
44:22two on one out
44:24two on one out
44:25three there sets him down on strikes
44:28you got to be ready to swing the bat with a runner in scoring position and two strikes
44:32just put the ball in place somewhere and you got a chance very frustrating for him I'm sure see if
44:39the next guy can pick him up
44:48popped in the air
44:49left field
44:52and that is that
44:54raise three
44:55and the red sox nothing
45:02bottom of the eighth
45:03leading so stepping in from boston
45:05say down rafael
45:10swing and a miss at a slider
45:17foul off left side
45:27swings through that and it's a strikeout and a quick out number one and he'll be beating himself up on
45:33the way back to the dugout
45:34got a pitch to hit and just couldn't get to it I think that slider really caught way more of
45:39the plate that it was supposed to
45:50base hit center field
45:54so a man aboard now with one away
46:02Marcelo Meyer will hit next
46:05this guy's definitely looking for a big swing of the bat right here try to close that gap but you
46:10know at the very least if you could find a way to manufacture that run from first it feels like
46:14it's really important to getting back into this ballgame
46:23next pitch in for a strike
46:24and the count is one and two
46:31got him now two out
46:32well the last place you want to miss with the splitter is near the top of the zone like that
46:36because it pretty much doesn't do anything stays flat but hey it worked that time he got away with it
46:41but sometimes the complete opposite of what you're expecting or what you're looking for can be effective even if it's
46:47not a quality pitch like that one right there
46:54next one
46:54next one
46:55next one off the plate inside
46:56and it's one and one
46:58counter Falefa leads off first with two down to the inning
47:01and this one squirts away from the catcher
47:05and now a man in the scoring position
47:08that's that base running right there
47:15the 1-2
47:18spoils the two strike pitch and he'll see another
47:25runner at second two down here the bottom half of the eighth inning
47:29that one almost got him
47:31straighten him up a little bit
47:36in the dirt
47:45third
47:46three and two
47:47payoff pitch
47:48battling here as he fouls it away
47:55good battle here about to be the eighth pitch of the at-bat
47:59sets him down on strikes
48:01he didn't make it easy for him on the mound but they still get the strikeout
48:06one left for the Red Sox they trail it here 3-0
48:14we're back it's the top of the ninth and there's a new pitcher on the mound
48:17Patrick Sandoval just trying to keep this one close here and this is where a bullpen can give their players
48:23a chance to fight back into the game
48:25leading off Carson Williams one for three
48:37nope that's in time
48:50high fly ball down the left field line that one back there into the monster seats and gone
48:59home run number five on the season and they add on it's four nothing that's a swing that'll boost the
49:06wind probability for sure
49:13well you can see he was right just a little bit maybe didn't recognize the change up earlier but he
49:19got the bat head to it hooked it down the line and was able to keep it fair for a
49:24long long run really impressive
49:30yeah always exciting to see a lead off home run and an inning kind of gets the offense fired up
49:34and you start to expect a big inning
49:40that's out to center field
49:43that's out to center field
49:44counter for left foot
49:44takes it in for the out
49:46and there's one down
49:47up next for Tampa Bay
49:49the left field can go
49:51so next to the plate for Tampa Bay
49:53Chandler Simpson
49:54struck out on just three pitches last time
50:13right side
50:14Raffaella throws the first play is made two out
50:18up next for Tampa Bay
50:20the third baseman number six
50:22Taylor
50:43wall
50:46two down bases empty but one run across
50:49here at the top of the dive
50:53swing and a ground ball
50:56throws the first in time
50:58and the inning is over
51:00solo homer extends the lead for Tampa Bay
51:03it's now a 4-0 ball game
51:06it's an AL East matchup here on MLB The Show
51:16welcome back as we take a look at their upcoming schedule
51:19the first baseman number 12 Connor
51:29that one back up the middle and it gets through
51:34So now back to the top of the order
51:37Up next to the right top
51:39The white fielder, Willjo
51:43Abreu
51:53Well the leadoff man gets on
51:55You want to minimize the threat by playing sound defense
51:58Hopefully the pitcher can get a ball on the ground
52:00And they can roll him up for two
52:01Walls
52:02They take the force out
52:04As they pass up the chance at the double play
52:11One out man at first
52:12Now batting Jaron Duran
52:140 for 3 in this one
52:18That one is absolutely belted
52:20That's got a chance
52:21And that one is off the wall
52:24Abreu
52:25Around third
52:27One run across
52:28Safely into third
52:30It's an RBI triple
52:31Well that gets him a little closer in this one
52:34Now a huge at bat in this game coming up
52:49Here comes a skipper out of the dugout
52:51And he's ready to make the move
52:53Joe Boyle is done
52:55And he leads a runner at third
52:57So we'll see how the next pitcher deals with that
52:59When we get back
53:09Griffin Jacks comes out trying to close it out
53:11I think closer has to be one of the toughest jobs in baseball
53:15And we see a pretty high turnover rate because of it
53:18Every outing seems to be high pressure
53:20This one included
53:22We'll see if he can wrap up the win
53:24And get himself a save
53:25This one chopped on the ground
53:27But fouled
53:33That's in there
53:340-2
53:35Jacks
53:36He's kind of a prototypical bullpen arm in today's game
53:40Electric stuff
53:41That results in a ton of strikeout
53:44Jacks it down
53:45But no throw in the play
53:47And a run scores
53:47It's a hit
53:49And the ball hitting the bat
53:50Definitely played a factor
53:51Those moments can go either way
53:53And it seemed to work out for the offense in that spot
53:56Here at the bottom of the ninth
53:57One out
53:58Tristan Casas
53:59Up next for the Red Sox
54:03As a hitter
54:04When a guy like this comes into the game
54:05You feel like he's standing on top of you
54:08And it's just attack mode
54:09Coming right at you
54:11Expecting to get a swing and miss
54:17Tying run at the plate
54:19And he grounds one back up the middle
54:21What a stop
54:22It's there
54:23And that's a great play
54:25It's such a great feeling
54:27When a team can rely on their shortstop
54:29To make a play like that
54:30It builds up confidence for everyone on his team
54:33It might even inspire a few more web gyms
54:35Before the game is over
54:39Ball back outside
54:47And now it's even up
54:49So many hard throwing relievers in the game these days
54:51You would think that hitters have made the adjustment
54:54But I don't know if you ever get used to it
54:56Just pumping gas out of the bullpen
54:58So hard to play catch up
55:00In the dirt
55:05Nice job behind the plate there
55:12That's the third
55:14And foul ball
55:20One strike away
55:22Line drive
55:24Base hit
55:26Runner around third
55:29He'll score
55:30It's an RBI single
55:32And now they trail by one
55:35Well it comes through
55:36Clutch with the RBI single
55:37That was big
55:38Anytime you rip a line drive
55:40The other road
55:41You feel really good
55:42About what you did at the plate
55:44You trusted your hands
55:45You let the ball travel
55:46And you took the ball straight to it
55:48That's great work right there
55:49In the box with two gone
55:52And it takes a look at a called strike
55:55Well in this situation
55:56The hitter knows
55:57That he's got to find a pitch
55:58That he can drive
55:59In order to drive in that tying run
56:01All the way from first base
56:02So if he can't do that
56:05Keep the line moving
56:06For a walk
56:07Or just a base hit
56:08But you've got to stay within yourself
56:13Late swing
56:13Fouled off
56:19The Red Sox
56:20With the winning run
56:22At the plate
56:22And the home team
56:23Trying to pull it out
56:25Swing
56:26And a miss
56:26And that's the ball game
56:28Well you take a tie ball game
56:29Into the ninth
56:30On the road
56:31You know that you've got some work to do
56:33You've got to score
56:33But then you've also got to get three outs
56:35In the bottom half of that inning
56:36They did just that today
56:37Very well played ball game
56:39Get this win on the road
56:40Everybody's happy with the W
56:42And the final score here
56:444-3
