00:19From Baltimore, welcome inside Oriole Park.
00:23The show has an AL East matchup.
00:25It's the Tampa Bay Rays taking on the Baltimore Orioles.
00:30Series game seven, hold out a cap for real.
00:32First pitch coming your way next.
00:35For real, now we gotta get to it and hustle, man.
00:37We gotta get to the fun.
00:39And getting to start for Baltimore, Trevor Rogers.
00:43He leads the league in ERA, Siggy.
00:45Yeah, he's always around the zone, boo.
00:47Gets weak contact and makes hitters guess.
00:50That's how he's been able to stay on top.
00:52Everything's crisp, movement, mix, location.
00:55A little different from your cardio stats, Siggy.
00:58Oh, wow.
00:58Wow, okay, well, we know the numbers don't lie.
01:01Elite is elite.
01:02They'll be leaning on that arm all summer long.
01:09Navio won.
01:12He had a foul ball.
01:23He doesn't always grab headlines, but is essential to everything this team does.
01:29Yeah, you said it, Boog.
01:30Reliability like that is gold over 162.
01:41Swing and a ball lined out towards center.
01:44It drops in, gets away a little bit.
01:47Man aboard on the leadoff single.
01:53Just a very nice approach and swing right there to use the big part of the field.
01:57Everything was on time.
01:59Stayed balanced through the entire swing and just launched that one into center.
02:02Yandy Diaz now enters the day third in the American League batting race.
02:08That one finds the zone.
02:10Strike one.
02:17Pitch kicks away.
02:22No advance, though.
02:31Here's the 0-2.
02:33This one in the air center field.
02:37And there's one down.
02:43All right, let's take a look at the Rays lineup.
02:46One guy swinging a hot bat recently, Jake Fraley.
02:49Well, Boog, he's a guy to watch because he capitalizes on the big situations as well as anyone.
02:55Hitting over 350 with runners in scoring position.
02:57And you know what that means?
02:58That means he's a key player for this offense because he can really drive him in when the team needs
03:03him the most.
03:04He's been clutch all year.
03:20What a stop.
03:22There's one.
03:24On to first.
03:25Safe.
03:26So they get one, but a really nice try there.
03:29Well, an aggressive slide at second base, but it was legal.
03:32I like it because you're trying to break up the double play.
03:35And it looked like the slide impacted the throw a little bit.
03:38Nice job by the base runner.
03:40Now it's the right fielder, Jake Fraley.
03:47Splits the plate.
03:480-1.
03:49Fraley matched a homer in his last game.
03:59The 0-1.
04:01In the air, left field.
04:04And that will drop foul.
04:08Rodgers, 28 years old.
04:11A former first-round pick back in 2017.
04:17Chase is in the dirt slider there.
04:19Up with it.
04:20Fires to first.
04:22That completes the strikeout, and that'll do it.
04:27Orioles do up in the first.
04:29No score.
04:30It's Major League Baseball on the show.
04:35Back now at Oriole Park.
04:37And on the mound now, Shane McClanahan.
04:40And Chris, pitching on the road has not been particularly kind to him.
04:45Yeah, and you don't want to be too quick to say that he can't pitch on the road.
04:49Sometimes, you know, it's just a matter of luck.
04:51It's not having a feel.
04:53Difference between the bullpen mound to the mound out there on the playing field.
04:58Don't know what it is, but I know this.
05:00He's got good enough stuff to overcome and get it done on the road as well as at home.
05:05So we'll see what he's able to do in this one.
05:071-1 now.
05:10On the ground.
05:11And it goes just fouled.
05:16The 1-2.
05:20Line drive.
05:21That's a base hit into right field.
05:25So a runner aboard to start the inning.
05:27Good start for him to this ballgame tonight.
05:29Now, I was talking about get a knock in your first at bat.
05:32It just makes your confidence at such a higher level for the potential to have a big night.
05:40At the play, Gunnar Henderson.
05:44Ripped, but a pearls foul.
05:51This one's real.
05:53Right center field.
05:54That one heading for the fence.
05:56And gone!
06:00He'll take a jog around the bases.
06:03And the Orioles jump out in front.
06:06It's 2-0.
06:17Just an excellent swing all the way around.
06:20And it had that sound coming off the back.
06:22It gets everyone's attention.
06:23Got a pitch to drive.
06:25Shook to the baseball.
06:26Squared it up.
06:27And the backspin carried it out of here.
06:34Ball, that's down.
06:35It's going to be tough to bounce back after a big home run.
06:36But nobody on, nobody out.
06:38You just have to treat it as a fresh inning.
06:41That's the third.
06:42Caminero.
06:44Handles.
06:45Throws the first.
06:45And that's the first out.
06:47Nice recovery after giving up the homer.
06:49All right, let's take a look at the Orioles lineup now.
06:52This is one of the best teams in the league when it comes to drawing walks, Chris.
06:55So we'll probably see a very patient approach from them.
06:58Yeah, Boogie.
06:59That's often what leads to a lot of runs scored.
07:02You get runners on base.
07:03You work that pitch count up for the opposing pitchers.
07:06And then you take advantage when they make mistakes.
07:08You get into that bullpen.
07:09You can tell that everyone up and down this lineup just comes in with a great plan of attack.
07:13A lot of patience, just like you said.
07:15Center fielder.
07:16Colton.
07:18Calver.
07:19Two down bases empty.
07:20Next to hit, Colton Couser.
07:23Really strong hitting performance recently.
07:25Working on a five-game hitting streak.
07:28And that skips into Dirk.
07:37Hee-haw!
07:44That one ripped left field.
07:47He won't get there.
07:49And that should be extra bases.
07:51And he's got a double.
07:56Well, a swing like that can help you come out of the struggle.
07:59We saw the numbers coming into the ball game.
08:02But all he's trying to do at this point is help his team win.
08:09And that one fouled off.
08:13Runner at second.
08:15Two down here in the second game of the series.
08:25Swings and misses.
08:26Good job at damage control right there.
08:30Baltimore with a two-run shot this inning.
08:32It's now a two-nothing ball game.
08:35It's an AL East matchup here on MLB The Show.
08:41Back here in Baltimore.
08:43On now to the top half of inning number two.
08:46So the Baltimore Orioles are hovering around .500 about a third of the way into this season.
08:51And singing, that's about what we expected.
08:53They look as good as they were projected to be.
08:56Yeah, they look pretty strong so far.
08:58They haven't blown the doors off.
08:59But they're putting themselves in a pretty good position to contend.
09:02If they want to make their run of the postseason a little easier, though,
09:05I think they need to turn it up over the next month.
09:08Really push to the All-Star break.
09:11That one in the dirt.
09:12Ball one.
09:18Out towards right center field.
09:20Couser on the move.
09:22Takes it in for the out.
09:24One up, one down.
09:26Batting six.
09:27Shortstop.
09:28Number seven.
09:29Carson Williams.
09:30The next to hit.
09:31Not getting the results he's wanted at the plate recently.
09:35Barely hitting over the Mendoza line this month.
09:37Just off the inside edge.
09:40Chris, you played here in 2002.
09:42What are the memories that stand out as to being a member of the Baltimore Orioles?
09:47For me, it was just pulling into the parking lot
09:50and having those that were there with an encouraging smile
09:54or a pat on the back, regardless of how things were going.
09:57It made it a lot easier to come to the ballpark,
09:59whether you were doing well or you were struggling.
10:02And then the way that they treated your family.
10:03I mean, this is a great place to play.
10:05And I'd say it's got to be one of the top places in all of baseball.
10:09No ball.
10:09Just missed.
10:11And you had a cameo in the movie Moneyball
10:13as an Orioles player in a highlight clip.
10:16This one in the air center field.
10:19Couser on his way over.
10:21Pulls it down and he makes the catch.
10:23And that'll do it.
10:25So they go quietly there.
10:26Now to the bottom of the second.
10:28It's the Orioles to the Rays.
10:31Ready to go for the last half of the inning.
10:34Here's Ryan Mountcastle.
10:36Ryan Mountcastle.
10:39Ball.
10:46And he hits a ground ball right side.
10:49And foul ball.
10:50Oh, you know, it didn't take Mountcastle long
10:53to make a splash at the major league level in 2021.
10:56He became the first rookie to lead the Orioles in home runs
10:59since Kurt Bleffery in 1965.
11:04And a big swing and a miss.
11:11Keeps the at-bat going with a foul ball.
11:23Line to second.
11:24Snagged on the bounce.
11:26Over to Diaz.
11:27A great play deep in the hole.
11:29I wasn't sure if he was going to get to this one or not.
11:32Had to go a pretty good way there in the shallow right field.
11:34But then after that, it's a tough angle
11:36after you square up your shoulders to throw to first base.
11:39Not the normal position,
11:40but a really good job defensively right there.
11:54Short hop liner handled it short.
11:57Tosses to first.
11:58Already two out here in the home half of inning number two.
12:02Right fielder, Leoti.
12:04Two out space is empty.
12:06And now the right fielder, Leoti Taveras.
12:13Checked swing and he went.
12:15It's 0-1.
12:22On the ground right side.
12:24It's through for him.
12:25So he gets on base and keeps it going.
12:30Up next for the Orioles.
12:33Up next for the Orioles.
12:34Killer.
12:36One.
12:40Breaking ball inside.
12:42Ball one.
12:47Outside.
12:48That's the ball.
12:51Runner.
12:51Runner on the goal.
12:53Pitching for a strike.
12:55Save in second.
12:57And he easily steals the bag.
12:59When your catcher's not a great thrower,
13:01you have to do a better job of controlling the running game.
13:03And that's throwing over, that's stepping off,
13:06doing whatever you can to try to keep that base stealer's rhythm off.
13:09Well, they weren't able to do it right there.
13:11They're going to have to make some type of adjustment
13:13or players are going to be running all game.
13:15Gunner Henderson would be next if they can extend the inning.
13:19And he's homered already,
13:21so I'm sure he'd love a chance to do some more damage here.
13:23And ball four to a ball.
13:25Runner, take your base.
13:26Man, that's a tough one to take on the full count,
13:28but I guess he saw it really well.
13:30It's a really nice plate appearance.
13:32And next for the Orioles, Gunner Henderson.
13:35In there at the knees.
13:36That strike one.
13:40Swing and a miss as he was late that time.
13:43He got away with one there,
13:45but he knows he can't go into that spot very often against a guy like this.
13:53And a slider misses down and away.
14:02Foul ball left side.
14:04He'll see another.
14:09Two on, two outs.
14:11Got him swinging.
14:12Swing.
14:15So it's no runs on a hit,
14:17no errors,
14:17and two are left.
14:19We play two full.
14:20It's the Orioles two,
14:22the Rays nothing.
14:23You're watching Tampa Bay Rays baseball on the show, Florida.
14:32All set for the start of the inning.
14:34And stepping in for the Rays,
14:36Johnny DeLuca.
14:41And that's what?
14:51Turned on,
14:52but that's foul down the third baseline.
15:05That one outside.
15:06One and two to count.
15:14Ground ball right side.
15:17Tosses to first.
15:18And one away at the top of the third.
15:22Batting ninth catcher,
15:23Nick Cortez.
15:33Oh, he doesn't get the call.
15:35Ball one.
15:36Really close pitch down around the knees there,
15:38and you could see him asking where it missed.
15:41Probably doesn't agree,
15:42but it appears he's ready to move on to the next pitch.
15:44Couser gets under it.
15:47And there are two down.
15:51Up next for Tampa Bay,
15:53second baseman,
15:54Richie Palacios.
15:55So the Rays batting order turns over.
15:58Richie Palacios will hit next.
16:14And that's in there at the knees for a strike.
16:17Quickly down 0-2 in the count.
16:19I think you've got to choke up a little bit,
16:21spread out the feet.
16:22You don't know what the velocity
16:23or the location of this next pitch is going to be.
16:25Left field.
16:26And that's the third out.
16:29Nothing across here this half.
16:32We head down to the home half of inning number three.
16:35It's the Orioles' two.
16:38Welcome back.
16:39Let's check out what's been happening of late.
16:41Really been struggling.
16:42Jordan Redford.
16:50And that misses.
16:51That's the ball.
16:52And it's 1-0.
16:57Out to short, Williams.
17:00Lead-off hitter gone in the third.
17:05Up next for the Orioles,
17:07designated hitter,
17:09Keith Alonzo.
17:17That's a bullet,
17:18but it goes foul.
17:26And a curve drops in for a strike.
17:33Here's a swing and a drive left field,
17:36and he knew it.
17:42Keith Alonzo with a rocket.
17:45His ninth homer of the year,
17:47and they add on.
17:49It's 3-0.
17:50It's no surprise this guy has won the Home Run Derby
17:53multiple times.
17:55He was born to hit him.
17:56Well, I'm not really sure how he kept that fair
17:58when you're out in front on a breaking ball like that.
18:01Such a good chance that it's going to hook the foul,
18:03but not this time.
18:05He kept the hands moving forward just long enough
18:08to sneak it inside that foul ball.
18:09Couser stands in now
18:11and watches strike one.
18:17Taps softly to the right side.
18:20Palacios fires to first.
18:23That's out number two.
18:26He's over one.
18:28For the Orioles,
18:30second baseman,
18:31Jackson Holiday.
18:49Chew down,
18:50nobody on.
18:52Fouls that off to the left,
18:54and will do it again.
19:02Ripped to short,
19:03snagged on a bounce.
19:05To first,
19:06and that is the inning.
19:09Orioles add one on the solo homer.
19:11It's now 3-0.
19:12This is Rays Baseball
19:14on the show, Florida.
19:19Back here at the ballpark,
19:20let's check out the latest news
19:22from around the league.
19:23John D.D.N.
19:35Well,
19:36these Rays,
19:37just lacking discipline
19:38at the plate in this ballgame.
19:39They're chasing a lot of pitches
19:40outside the zone,
19:41and those chases
19:42that are turning into
19:43a bunch of outs,
19:44can they turn that around
19:45and stay within the zone?
19:46We'll see.
19:47Oh,
19:48gets dirty.
19:49Over to first.
19:50Nicely done for the out.
19:52Just so impressed
19:53with the movement
19:54on that play.
19:55Footwork was excellent.
19:57The arm strength was there,
19:58and of course,
19:58the most important part
20:00was getting the out.
20:07And on the mound,
20:09you know confidence
20:10has to be pretty high
20:11with all of the swings
20:12and misses.
20:13He's had them eaten
20:14out of the palm of his hand
20:15pretty much all game.
20:17That one blasted deep to right.
20:20And that one is
20:22off the top of the wall.
20:24Throws to second.
20:25And he's got no chance.
20:27He's out.
20:28Got a lot of the hustle
20:29and the attitude there
20:31to try to stretch that single
20:32into a double,
20:33but unfortunately,
20:34thrown out at second base,
20:35he was so close
20:36to being in scoring position.
20:40Fraley in the box
20:41with two gone
20:42and takes a look
20:43at a called strike.
20:45Two down,
20:46nobody on.
20:47Top half of inning number four.
21:00Ball.
21:08Pitch misses.
21:09Now two and two.
21:17Battling here
21:18as he fouls it away.
21:23Two down,
21:24nobody on.
21:26Swing and a ball popped up.
21:28Henderson settles underneath it.
21:31And that is that.
21:34Nothing doing for Tampa.
21:35They trailing this one.
21:36Three nothing.
21:42Bottom of the fourth
21:43and now the first baseman,
21:45Ryan Mountcastle.
21:48You know,
21:49these Orioles
21:50do the great job, Boog,
21:51of just waiting
21:52for the right pitch
21:53to come their way.
21:53And I'm seeing
21:54very patient at bats
21:56out of them.
21:56It's not just the three runs
21:57they've already scored.
21:58On top of that,
21:59they forced this starter
22:01to throw more pitches
22:02than he wanted to
22:03at this point of the game.
22:05That missed by a lot.
22:07And that's ball one.
22:08And that pitch count
22:09is impactful
22:10because if they can keep
22:12making him work hard
22:13out there,
22:13it may force the bullpen
22:15to get involved
22:15a little sooner
22:16rather than later.
22:17Sugar Shane
22:18notches the strikeout.
22:19Strikeout.
22:21Up next for the Orioles,
22:24catcher
22:25Samuel
22:27Basayo.
22:31A good breaking ball
22:32like that
22:32can buckle the hitter
22:33and by the time
22:34you realize
22:35it's going to be
22:35in the strike zone,
22:36it's too late
22:37to pull the trigger.
22:40On the ground
22:40to the left.
22:41And that's just
22:42foul.
22:46Field two.
22:50Well, that's kind of
22:51what you expect
22:51in an 0-2 count.
22:53Excellent job
22:53of the hitter
22:54to have the plate
22:55disciplined
22:55to lay off
22:56of that pitch.
22:57Strike three
22:58and that's two in a row.
23:02And here's a look
23:03at how he's using
23:04his pitches
23:05in this one.
23:08Two down,
23:09base is empty.
23:11So next to hit
23:11for Baltimore.
23:12Layoti Tavares.
23:18That one finds
23:19the zone.
23:20Strike one.
23:26Ball.
23:27That's down.
23:33Right through there
23:34for his strike.
23:41Swing and a miss
23:42for the strikeout.
23:43And he strikes
23:44out the side
23:45here in the fourth.
23:46It's the Orioles
23:47three,
23:48the Rays nothing.
23:49Highlight, highlight,
23:50live my life
23:50right by the rim.
23:51Way we put it on,
23:53they should get
23:53this all I'm feeling.
23:56Welcome back
23:57as we take a look
23:58at how today's
23:58starting pitchers
23:59have fared so far.
24:06I'm looking around
24:10well these Rays
24:11as this game goes on
24:12have to be more
24:13disciplined at the plate.
24:14Chasing pitches
24:15has been a big part
24:16of the story.
24:17We've seen it
24:17quite a bit today.
24:19It's been tough
24:19for them to make
24:20contact at times
24:21and it just doesn't
24:22look like they're
24:23seeing it very well
24:23as a group.
24:24Dunks one into left,
24:26man aboard on the
24:27leadoff single.
24:38He's been incredibly
24:39efficient in this one.
24:40First pitch strike
24:41percentage over 70%.
24:43That's well above
24:44league average
24:45and that's what's
24:45allowed him to pitch
24:46well up until this point.
24:50In the air to left
24:52center.
24:57Couser
24:57takes it in
24:58for the out.
24:59And there's one down.
25:01Throws sails
25:01over his head
25:02at first.
25:03I just think
25:03the lack of drawing
25:04any walks
25:05is an indication
25:06that they need
25:06to be a little
25:07more selective
25:07and less anxious
25:09about forcing
25:10something to happen.
25:11So next to the plate
25:12for Tampa Bay
25:13Chandler Simpson.
25:17Hi-ha!
25:27And a foul ball.
25:31Man at first
25:32one away.
25:38In the air
25:39left field
25:40and it falls.
25:43Lead runner
25:44touches second
25:45headed for third.
25:47right past
25:48his coach
25:49headed for the plate.
25:50The relay throw.
25:51Here's the tag
25:52and he's out.
25:55That really hurts
25:56right there.
25:57This is no time
25:58to gamble.
25:58When you're down
25:59in the ball game
26:00you've got to be sure
26:01if you're going to
26:01advance a run
26:02or even try to score
26:03right there
26:03that you're going
26:05to be safe.
26:06Just a poor decision.
26:15fastball for a strike.
26:24Out to short.
26:28Henderson
26:28over to first
26:29in time.
26:30And the inning
26:31is over.
26:32He continues
26:32to roll
26:33on the mound
26:34as five shutout
26:35innings are
26:36in the books.
26:38We head to the
26:39bottom of the fifth.
26:40Here's the Orioles
26:40leadoff hitter
26:41Taylor Ward.
26:45Ball.
26:52And that one
26:53missing low.
27:00That misses the zone.
27:01Ball three.
27:08And that's in there
27:09at the knees
27:10for a strike.
27:16That one misses.
27:17So a leadoff walk.
27:19Pretty easy walk
27:20right there.
27:20Last pitch
27:21wasn't even much
27:21to think about.
27:28Nobody on the team
27:29has more stolen bases
27:30than he does
27:31this season, Chris.
27:33One.
27:37To third.
27:38And it stays fair.
27:44Lead runner
27:45to second.
27:45So two on
27:46and nobody out.
27:49Not much to this one
27:50other than just
27:51a willingness
27:51to go the other way
27:52and put the ball
27:53in play.
27:54That's a team
27:54to bat right there.
27:55Nice job of staying
27:56back and letting
27:57the ball go deep.
27:59Westburn
27:59in the box
28:00now.
28:00Take strike one.
28:05And that one
28:06is downstairs.
28:07And it's a ball
28:08and a strike.
28:12comes up empty.
28:14That's strike two.
28:18Hauls it in.
28:20One away.
28:23Up next for the
28:25Orioles.
28:26Designated hitter.
28:27Pete Alonzo.
28:35That one hammered
28:37but pulled foul.
28:41Two on,
28:42one out.
28:43Oh,
28:44he can't hang on.
28:47Still finds a way
28:48to get off the throw.
28:49and everyone
28:51safe.
28:51They're loaded.
28:52Nice job getting there.
28:53Good throw
28:54but
28:54very difficult
28:56to get anybody
28:57on.
29:04as far as you had
29:06to go
29:06and throw.
29:08You know?
29:09Yeah,
29:09no question.
29:10Ground ball
29:11up the middle.
29:11That's a base hit.
29:12One run is in.
29:14Now the second
29:15run is in.
29:16It's a two-run
29:18single
29:18and the lead
29:19is up to five.
29:21Nicely done.
29:22Brings home two.
29:23Timing on the swing
29:24was good.
29:25Able to shoot the ball
29:26up the middle.
29:26Didn't stir it up
29:27as much as he probably
29:28would have liked
29:29but that's a good
29:30approach paying off.
29:32Traffic on the bases
29:33with two already
29:34in to score.
29:35Last half of inning
29:36number five.
29:40Light drive
29:41and
29:42foul ball.
29:48Really good slider.
29:50He's up there
29:50just hoping
29:51that it ends up
29:52off the plate away.
29:54Good job to fight
29:55that one off.
29:58Still only one out
30:00here in the inning.
30:02That pitch just
30:03misses the inside
30:04corner
30:04and the count's
30:05even a two.
30:08Fouls it back
30:09with two strikes.
30:14Here's the two-two
30:15and that's a
30:17strikeout looking.
30:18He didn't make it
30:19easy for him
30:20on the mound
30:20but they still
30:21get the strikeout.
30:22barely a hair
30:23out of the zone
30:24but it was a ball.
30:26They'll keep both
30:27their challenges.
30:29Payoff pitch.
30:33That's a base hit.
30:37And they stop him
30:38at third
30:39so base is loaded
30:40with one away.
30:44Ryan Mountcastle
30:45the next to hit
30:45for the Orioles.
30:47Hit on the ground
30:48to the right side.
30:49Base hit.
30:50One run is in.
30:53Relay throw home.
30:54And the runner
30:56from second
30:57scores on the play.
30:58It's seven to nothing.
31:03That one finds
31:04the zone.
31:05That's strike one.
31:07Well, a really rough
31:08inning out there
31:08on the mound
31:09and this is one
31:10of those where
31:11you learn
31:12swing and this is
31:13ripped down
31:14the right field line.
31:15Way back there.
31:16Out of here.
31:18The three run digger
31:21and they tack out
31:22to their lead.
31:23It's ten nothing.
