00:05Thompson, the left fielder, Bubba Thompson
00:11Greg back to work
00:15bounce to the left side and it goes just foul
00:22and the 0-1 and that one's sliced foul
00:37in the air to left center Kirilov sizing this one up he's got it and there's one
00:43away now that second baseman Marcus here's the second baseman Marcus Simeon
00:52goal for one popped out foul to the catcher his first time off
01:05hammer down the right side but foul well he missed a hitable off-speed pitch right
01:11there not sure exactly what the time and sometimes you get a backup breaking ball
01:15you're expecting it to make its move at the end it never does and you're tied up
01:21one down base is empty and a foul ball he stays alive
01:36the 0-2
01:40swing and a miss struck him out and there's two down
01:47two outs base is empty now it's Corey Seager doubled his first time off
02:00fouled off he was late
02:050-1 down
02:09that's a ball
02:19swings through that one for strike two good late sink on that fastball out of
02:24the hand looks so good and then by the time he gets in the hitting zone hard to
02:28get the barrel to it way inside and that hit him he had two strikes on him and he
02:35hit him that pitch right there didn't even snip the zone he was all out of
02:39whack on that delivery
02:46low added for the second time and that strike one
02:55oh back-to-back batters hit by a pitch now Wow back-to-back hit batters it's
03:01certainly concerning and it kind of makes you wonder where his head's at right
03:04now Adolis so first and second with two hours Adolis Garcia digs in now
03:15that's pitched downstairs and that's ball one
03:27and the right hater deals
03:31good spot for the hitter definitely has the advantage in this count with runners
03:35on look for him to be aggressive on this next pitch
03:48seeker over at second low on at first with two down
03:54next pitch is outside get ready for some action here good RBI guy at the plate runners in scoring position
04:01the hitters count
04:04and he walked him
04:07well interesting he went with the off speed and walked the hitter man you got to
04:12challenge the guy with the basketball now the catcher for the Rangers Jonah
04:16behind he is at the top of the game in terms of defense at the catching spot
04:25out to short Correa picks it up whips it across and that is that Rangers threat but
04:33leave him loaded and we are still scoreless
04:44bottom of the inning max Kepler at the plate
04:48leading up for the twin the right fielder
04:52max Kepler the wide to kick the pitch
04:59swing and a foul back that's out of play well on paper it's favorable to have a
05:03fairly quick getting here with two of the three hitters he's set to face batting
05:07from the left side same side he throws from
05:12and a pitch there's a strike
05:31and a pitch and now two and two
05:41two two
05:44got him now one away
05:50Gary Sanchez at the plate
05:52the catcher
05:53Gary
05:56Sanchez
05:56in today's game you look at exit velocity as a measure of process and if guys are hitting the ball
06:03hard
06:03eventually the results usually follow Gary Sanchez he is a guy that hits the ball hard
06:11the pitch
06:15pulls that one foul
06:23next offering is down low recognize that change up right out of the hand just spit on it
06:29the pitch
06:32hard hit left side and a base hit so they get a man aboard with a one-out single
06:43here's Alex Kirilov
06:44Alex Kirilov
06:57Alex Kirilov
07:07left field Thompson drifts towards it two down
07:19the center fielder number 25
07:22so the lineup flips over
07:24so up next for Minnesota Byron Buxton
07:26we talk about guys with good speed and definitely he has it but pushing the offensive side for just a
07:34second Chris
07:34it's the defensive side that I think the speed factors in the most
07:39in the first pitch misses for a ball one
07:42well he gets to balls that get by most people at that position just really impressive because there's certain times
07:49the ball comes off the bat automatic
07:51that team that hit it thinks that they've got a base hit or they may have extra bases and he
07:56just takes it away
08:06well he's ready for that fastball right there really turned on and hit it hard at the distance
08:11but just too much hook to it so might want to make a little bit of an adjustment let it
08:16travel a little more and see if you can keep that thing fair
08:18to first and he beats it everyone's safe
08:21always feels amazing getting a job done when the team needs you to come through
08:25it's just bigger than your own individual stats
08:28better in scoring position now and a good opportunity to push across the first run of the ball game
08:41so two down and now for the twins Carlos Correa
08:50line drive
08:52and that one gets down fair ball
08:54runner around third on his way to the plate
08:57throw home he beats it
08:59and it's 1-0
09:03well they strike first as he gets the job done to bring home the run
09:07anytime you rip a line drive the other way
09:09you feel really good about what you did at the plate
09:12you trusted your hands
09:13you let the ball travel
09:15and you took the barrel straight to it
09:17that's great work right there
09:20the batter
09:21the designated hitter
09:23Miguel
09:24and here is
09:25Miguel Sano
09:26and fouled off
09:43and now the lefty
09:45tapped at the plate but it's a foul ball
09:49Buxton at third
09:50Correa at first
09:51two out of the inning
09:55and a swing and a miss and that's that
09:59but the RBI single pushes across a run
10:02it's now a 1-0 ball game
10:18start of the fourth and a batter now
10:21Andy Ibanez
10:21leading off for the Rangers
10:23leading off for the Rangers
10:24the third baseman
10:25Andy Ibanez
10:29and here comes
10:33that's inside
10:42good eye right there
10:53and a foul ball makes the count two and a one
11:02and that's outside
11:04now in this three ball count down in the ball game
11:06you've got to be very selective
11:08take your walk if they'll give it to you
11:153-1 and he couldn't come up with it
11:18that could jumpstart an offense that's really struggled to score in this one
11:23don't want to wake a team up with the free pass
11:25no outs
11:26runner at first
11:27now it's the DH
11:29Brad Miller
11:38first offering misses badly for ball one
11:41maybe losing command a little bit after the walk
11:43next pitch not even close
11:54and a 1-0
11:56that's a strike
12:05and a swing and a miss
12:06with two strikes
12:07may see some movement over there at first base
12:10trying to stay out of a double play here
12:12left hand hitter waits
12:15stays alive
12:23the pitch
12:24the pitch
12:25that misses the zone
12:27and that's ball two
12:33right into the play

12:483-2
12:54at the belt and fires
12:56swing and blast one
12:57down the line
12:58it's gone if it's fair
13:00but it hooks foul
13:02clearly hoping he could get a swing and miss on that
13:04but doesn't fool the hitter with that breaking ball
13:07nice job just couldn't keep it fair
13:09on the ground
13:10and that's a base hit
13:15lead runner to second
13:16so two on
13:17and nobody out
13:21just a cookie down the middle
13:23I mean those are the ones you dream about
13:24ones in the cage
13:25you're just hoping you get in the ball game
13:27right down the middle
13:28not a whole lot of velocity
13:29right on top of it
13:33here's Leody Tavares
13:41in there for strike one
13:43in there for strike one
