00:01Always a good day when two
00:02lefties are starting against
00:04each other for the A's it's J.P.
00:06Sears what a pitching matchup
00:07it will be today.
00:08The southpaw J.P.
00:09Sears has been outstanding.
00:11Sears ready winds up the first
00:12pitch kicks off the mound.
00:14Schumann is there and on the
00:15run delivers a strike one pitch
00:18one out.
00:19And that'll bring up Kanna.
00:20He uses his fastball more than
00:22any other pitch.
00:23Now Kanna drive to center field
00:25Bladet will make the catch on
00:27the run a step shy of the
00:28warning track.
00:29That's not number two and
00:30that'll bring up Elliott Ramos.
00:33Now Ramos will pop it up should
00:35be playable for Nevin in foul
00:37ground and it is he will make
00:39the catch.
00:40That's a one two three inning for
00:42J.P.
00:43Sears the dominator these days Mike
00:45for the Giants a lefty Blake
00:46Snell.
00:47Oh his last seven starts and this
00:49is what he's done 2 and 0 with 0
00:51990 are a 60 strikeouts might
00:54have the best curveball in
00:55baseball on the ground is short
00:58but Fitzgerald out number one.
01:01So now Brent Rooker he's the big
01:02home run hitter for the A's and
01:03he hits that one pretty hard to
01:04center field going back on it
01:06McRae at the wall he'll make the
01:09catch down.
01:10So here's what day a left handed hitter
01:12that's a swing and a miss strike three
01:14a slider got him.
01:15First strikeout today for Blake
01:17Snell one out.
01:18Here is Jay Langoliers now the A's
01:21catcher just off the inside no called
01:23strike three got the call.
01:25Langoliers can't believe it.
01:27So here's Nevin.
01:28Did he go?
01:29Yes he did.
01:30On the curve in the dirt that's
01:31strike three.
01:32For Snell two strikeouts and a 1-2-3
01:35inning.
01:35The Giants get a lead off base runner.
01:37Now Grant McRae batting left handed.
01:39Two balls and a strike to McRae.
01:41Runner goes and pitches high throw to
01:42second base.
01:43The tag applied by the short stock
01:45Schumann on the money and down goes
01:47Jastrzewski trying to steal.
01:49The Giants are last in baseball in
01:51stolen bases.
01:52They were trying for the 50th of the
01:54year and denied by Langoliers.
01:56Yes.
01:573-2 and J.P. Sears just struck out a
02:01second man down a strikeout on her
02:03days and that'll bring Schumann to
02:04the plate.
02:05A wide drive base hit by Schumann the
02:06first today against Snell.
02:08That was a good at bat from Max
02:10Schumann.
02:10Snell out of the stretch now for the
02:12first time facing Daz Cameron.
02:15Got it.
02:15Three straight change ups.
02:18Heather Fitzgerald the batter.
02:20He's worked the count full here to
02:21lead off the fourth.
02:23On the ground a fair ball.
02:25Hernais.
02:26One hop not in time.
02:29Fitzgerald's just too fast great
02:30effort but it's a hit.
02:32Here's Mark Canna now.
02:34One and two to Canna.
02:36Another chance for Hernais who
02:38fights the Sun.
02:39He's coming in.
02:40And Sears makes the catch.
02:42They might have a chance at a
02:43double play.
02:44And they get it.
02:45JP Sears fields more than his
02:49position and turns an incredible
02:52double play catching Fitzgerald
02:54sleeping in between first and
02:56second.
02:57Well you lose it upstairs in that
02:58big ball of gas and somebody's
03:00got to make something happen.
03:01And JP Sears says clear the deck.
03:04I'll handle it myself because I am
03:07an athlete.
03:09Do it sizzle.
03:10So two outs.
03:12And here comes Elliott Ramos at a
03:14scoreless game.
03:15One two and then he just struck
03:17out the all star Elliott Ramos.
03:19What a performance for JP Sears
03:21through four innings.
03:22Now Chapman will lead off against
03:24JP Sears.
03:25Face hit.
03:26Chapman hit it hard.
03:27And that's a lead off single.
03:29It was Casey Schmidt.
03:31Squibbs that one past the dive of
03:34Nevin.
03:35OK.
03:35You don't always have to hit it
03:36hard.
03:37Chapman's going to go around the
03:38third.
03:39Well the fact that he barely got
03:40it through the infield it allowed
03:41an easy take a third base for
03:43Chapman just right off the tip of
03:44the bat.
03:45There's a little opportunity with
03:46some space on the right side just
03:48out past the outstretched arm of
03:50Nevin.
03:51Is that for good luck.
03:52Hey it worked.
03:53What a great way to suck up to
03:55your manager.
03:56So it's Mikey Stremski who in this
03:58situation could make an out and
04:00still get a run home.
04:01Here's a butt in the air.
04:03Excuse me Steven.
04:04Foul territory and diving to his
04:06left is Langoliers.
04:07He makes the play and takes it
04:09right off the grass.
04:10And the sparkly defense continues
04:12on this Sunday afternoon.
04:14That didn't go how the Giants
04:16expected.
04:16It's Langoliers who takes
04:18advantage of Yaz and the bad
04:19head dropping little pop up
04:21and Shay up out of the squat on
04:23those pogo sticks makes a heck
04:25of a play.
04:25So now it's up to Patrick Bailey
04:27two on but two outs.
04:29That's a big word for him.
04:30Emotion is a big part of his
04:33game you know.
04:34Cameron's there to make the
04:35catch.
04:36It has Cameron 0 for 2 this
04:38afternoon.
04:39Line drive into left field.
04:41Cameron's got a hit.
04:44Hanging in there doing a nice
04:45job with a little change up
04:46that gets flipped up.
04:47One out single by Cameron.
04:49Here's Rooker by the center and
04:51struck out.
04:52One one line drive.
04:54And into right field beyond the
04:56diving reach of Casey Schmidt.
04:59So Rooker and Cameron are on the
05:03base pads back to back hits for
05:05the A's.
05:05And that'll bring up J.J.
05:07Bladet.
05:08On the ground.
05:10Schmidt is going to flip.
05:12There was a little hesitation.
05:13I don't know if they could have
05:15gotten the double play but that
05:16took away their chance.
05:17And now the runners are on the
05:18corners with on to heart who has
05:20recorded a hit against Snell in
05:22this game coming up.
05:24Swing it on the first pitch it's a
05:25base hit to right.
05:27On Duhar brings home the first
05:30A's run.
05:30The throw to third is perfect.
05:34But the A's do get their first run
05:37of the game and take a one to
05:39nothing lead.
05:40And what is the conversation here
05:41between Mark Kotze and Alex
05:43Toze at third.
05:44It very well could be Mark Kotze
05:46wondering where's the obstruction
05:47call because you see Matt
05:49Chapman going for the baseball
05:50and they're wondering does that
05:52eliminate the lane for J.J.
05:54Bladet.
05:54What you got to remember is this
05:56is an interpretation call not
05:58something that they're going to
05:59be able to take another look at.
06:00Third time through against Sears.
06:02You figure it's sort of now or
06:03never for the Giants.
06:05Elliott Ramos standing in for the
06:07Giants.
06:08Ramos to center field.
06:10Bladet back and gone.
06:14Up off the hitter's backdrop
06:16Elliott Ramos.
06:18A monstrous home run to tie the
06:22game.
06:22My goodness did he crush that one
06:26four hundred forty eight feet.
06:29Wow.
06:31It's one to one.
06:32That's one of the longest home
06:34runs I can ever remember a
06:35Giants hitter having in this
06:37part.
06:37Well that gets a little light
06:38back in the dugout.
06:39Oh my.
06:40Blake Snell still in this game.
06:43He did not do any damage with
06:46that one a curve in the dirt for
06:47strike three fifty four strikeouts
06:49now.
06:50Last five starts.
06:51And that surpasses John
06:53Montefusco.
06:54There's Tyler Nevin.
06:55Rocket back up the middle.
06:57Tyler Nevin has a one out base
06:58hit.
06:59Two walks in a row.
07:01And suddenly the A's have loaded
07:03the bases with one out for Max
07:05Schumann.
07:06One two.
07:07He went around and the ball hit him.
07:10He's out.
07:11So he got hit by the pitch but he
07:13swung at it.
07:14It's strike three.
07:14That's one of the really rough
07:17rules in baseball.
07:18This is where whatever you got
07:20left.
07:20Empty the tank Blake.
07:22Three two.
07:23On the ground a second.
07:25Casey Schmidt will throw him out
07:27and Blake Snell he dug deep and
07:30got the Giants through it.
07:32The A's do not score.
07:34We're going to the tenth after
07:35nine is one Giants one.
07:37Encarnacion stands in.
07:40Encarnacion first pitch swinging.
07:42Deep right center.
07:44Gone.
07:46First pitch of the tenth and it's a
07:49two run homer to put the Giants
07:52ahead three to one.
07:54Wow what a swing.
07:55What a moment for Encarnacion.
07:58Just called up to the Giants
08:00earlier in the month and without a
08:02doubt his biggest swing of the
08:04bat in a Giants uniform.
08:06As it stands right now that's one
08:07of the biggest hits of the year
08:08for the Giants.
08:09Bob Melvin going to go to his
08:10bench and Michael Conforto.
08:12Two one.
08:13Conforto to deep right field.
08:16The Giants go back to back.
08:19Four to one in the tenth.
08:21Michael Conforto is a pinch hitter
08:23makes it four to one.
08:25And all of a sudden it's home run
08:27derby here in Oakland.
08:29Wow.
08:29Out of the tenth inning ace trail at
08:31four to one.
08:32Here's Max Schumann who's one for three.
08:34Ground ball to.
08:35Nope it's through into center field.
08:38Wisely couldn't corral it.
08:40And Butler comes home and scores.
08:42That is a good start battling back
08:45from a four one deficit.
08:46Relatively routine ball.
08:48And Wisely just missed it.
08:50And that's how they get the tying run
08:52of the plate.
08:53And he just walked Toro on four
08:56straight pitches.
08:57Brent Rooker with two on and nobody
09:00out in the bottom of the tenth.
09:02Down two runs.
09:03Is coming up.
09:05Swing and a line drive into left field.
09:07That's a base hit.
09:09They're going to hold up.
09:11Schumann at third and the bases are loaded
09:13for J.J. Bladet.
09:16Still nobody out.
09:18One two.
09:19He got it with the sinker.
09:21Front door sink and a big big first out.
09:26Andujar with two hits and four at bats.
09:29He got it with the slider two down.
09:32And there's the Ryan Walker slider
09:34and he got Duhar to go after it.
09:38Two down in the tenth.
09:39Now Shea Langoliers who has one of the
09:41two grand slams this year for the A's.
09:43He struck him out to end the game.
09:47Ryan Walker.
09:48The final game the Giants will ever
09:51play here at the Coliseum was a
09:54thriller.
09:55And they find a way to get it done.
09:57They beat the A's four to two.
10:00What a game.
