00:00Not enough. Here's Alex Kirilov.
00:02Alex Kirilov.
00:25Left field. Thompson drifts towards it.
00:30Two down.
00:37The center fielder, number 25.
00:40So the lineup flips over.
00:42So up next for Minnesota, Byron Buxton.
00:45We talk about guys with good speed, and definitely he has it.
00:49But pushing the offensive side for just a second, Chris,
00:52it's the defensive side that I think the speed factors in the most.
00:57And the first pitch misses for ball one.
01:00Well, he gets to balls that get by most people at that position.
01:04Just really impressive because there are certain times the ball comes off the bat,
01:08automatically that team that hit it thinks that they've got a base hit,
01:12or they may have extra bases, and he just takes it away.
01:24Well, he's ready for that fastball right there.
01:26Really turned on it, hit it hard, had the distance, but just too much hook to it.
01:31So might want to make a little bit of an adjustment, let it travel a little more,
01:35and see if you can keep that thing fair.
01:36To first, and he beats it, everyone's safe.
01:39Always feels amazing getting a job done when the team needs you to come through.
01:43It's just bigger than your own individual stats.
01:46Better in scoring position now, and a good opportunity to push across the first run of the ball game.
01:59So two down, and now for the Twins, Carlos Correa.
02:08Line drive, and that one gets down, fair ball.
02:13Runner around third, on his way to the plate.
02:16Throw home, he beats it, and it's 1-0.
02:21Well, they strike first as he gets the job done to bring home the run.
02:25Anytime you rip a line drive the other way, you feel really good about what you did at the plate.
02:30You trusted your hands, you let the ball travel, and you took the barrel straight to it.
02:35That's great work right there.
02:38The batter, the designated hitter, Miguel.
02:42And here is Miguel Sano, that fouled off.
03:01And now the lefty tapped at the plate, but it's a foul ball.
03:07Buxton at third.
03:08Correa at first, two out of the inning.
03:14And a swing and a miss, and that's that.
03:17But the RBI single pushes across a run.
03:20It's now a 1-0 ball game.
03:37Star to the fourth, and the batter now, Andy Ibanez.
03:40Leading off for the Rangers, the third baseman, Andy Ibanez.
03:48And here it comes.
03:52That's inside.
04:01Good eye right there.
04:03Two balls, no strike.
04:11And a foul ball makes the count two and one.
04:21And that's outside.
04:22Now in this three-ball count, down in the ball game, you've got to be very selective.
04:26Take your walk if they'll give it to you.
04:33Three-one, and he couldn't come up with it.
04:36That could jumpstart an offense that's really struggled to score in this one.
04:41Don't want to wake a team up with the free pass.
04:43No outs, runner at first.
04:46Now it's the DH, Brad Miller.
04:56First offering misses badly for ball one.
04:59Maybe losing command a little bit after the walk.
05:01Next pitch, not even close.
05:12And a 1-0.
05:14That's a strike.
05:23And a swing and a miss.
05:25With two strikes.
05:26May see some movement over there at first base.
05:28Trying to stay out of a double play here.
05:31Left-hand hitter waits.
05:33Stays the line.
05:41The pitch.
05:43That misses the zone.
05:45And that's ball two.
05:51Riding to the plate.
05:53And a foul ball.
05:55He stays alive.
05:56Nobody out.
05:57Runner at first.
06:043-2 down.
06:12At the belt and fires.
06:14Swing and blast one.
06:16Down the line.
06:17It's gone if it's fair.
06:18But it hooks foul.
06:20Clearly hoping he could get a swing and miss on that.
06:22But doesn't pull the hitter with that breaking ball.
06:25Nice job.
06:26Just couldn't keep it fair.
06:27On the ground.
06:28And that's a base hit.
06:33Lead runner to second.
06:34So two on and nobody out.
06:39Just a cookie down the middle.
06:41I mean, those are the ones you dream about.
06:43Once in the cage, you're just hoping you get in the ball game.
06:45Right down the middle.
06:46Not a whole lot of velocity.
06:47Right on top of it.
06:51Here's Lioti Tavares.
06:59In there for strike one.
07:14And downstairs.
07:17One ball, one break.
07:26No outs.
07:27Runners at first and second.
07:32On the ground.
07:33Could be two.
07:35On the second.
07:35They get one.
07:36But no throw to first as he'll hold on to it.
07:39Well, he's doing a nice job of keeping the ball out of the air.
07:43Let's the defense work behind him with another ground ball.
07:45Good execution.
07:48Two on, one out.
07:50Bubba Thompson stepping in for the Rangers.
08:01He's looking for a ground ball to get a double play and out of this jam.
08:08The 1-0.
08:10And a strike in there.
08:13Runners are at the corners.
08:15One away.
08:19On the ground, the third, down the line, and it's foul.
08:28Here's a 1-2.
08:30On the ground to the left.
08:32Could be extra bases.
08:35One runs in.
08:38Runner holds it third.
08:39So, just one across on the play.
08:42Huge game tying it bad right there.
08:44Game through in a big spot to drive in the run.
08:46Caught it out front and ripped it down the line.
08:48And as soon as he saw it get through the infield, man, he started making that big turn towards second
08:53for the double.
08:59Now, it's Marcus Simeon.
09:06First pitch doesn't find the zone.
09:15Second and third here.
09:17One away.
09:23Next offering is foul back.
09:33Next offering is in for a strike.
09:36Action in the pen down there.
09:38Tyler Mallee is loosening up.
09:41This would be his first appearance for the club.
09:43Bundy getting loose as well.
09:52And a righty deals.
09:54And a swing and a miss.
09:56Huge strikeout there.
09:58Certainly a strikeout situation right there.
10:01The infield playing back.
10:02And this pitcher has to step up and get the swing and miss.
10:05It's a really nice job of attacking the hitter at the plate.
10:09Pretty big two out at bat coming up now.
10:12So now it's Corey Seager.
10:20Next offering is down low.
10:23And that's ball one.
10:29Tavares on third.
10:31Thompson on at second with two down.
10:35Next pitch inside.
10:36Ball two.
10:47Righty delivers.
10:50Well, he went inside a couple of times and now outside.
10:54Hitters not exactly sure where to look for this next pitch.
10:57Left-hand batter waits.
11:07He had a foul ball.
11:11He had a foul ball.
11:18Here comes the pitch.
11:20And that one wrapped foul.
11:30In the air, left side.
11:32Tierlock.
11:33Drop steps.
11:33Heads back on him.
11:35He's got it.
11:36And that will end the inning.
11:37One in the inning.
11:39And it comes from a rather unlikely power source.
11:42All even now at 1-1.
11:53Welcome back.
11:54Ready to go for the last half of the inning.
11:56Now it's the second baseman.
11:57Jorge Polanco.
11:59The second baseman.
12:02Jorge Polanco.
12:10Perez.
12:11Back to work.
12:11That one ran inside.
12:13Almost got him.
12:331-1 now.
12:36And there's a foul ball.
12:56Next one misses.
12:57Now 2-2.
13:04The ground out to short.
13:07Sends it to first.
13:09One out in the bottom of the fourth.
13:14The first baseman.
13:16Number two.
13:17Luis.
13:18Oh, yeah.
13:20And now here is Luis Arias.
13:30First offering.
13:31And it just misses.
13:32Counts 1-0.
13:38Just missed.
13:402-0 count to a guy with this much pop at the dish.
13:43Better expect him to be turning on something.
13:46It's going to either get hit hard to the pull side.
13:48Or the fans better look out in the stance.
13:50And the next pitch is way outside.
13:53A rare three-ball count here.
13:55He's been throwing strikes all day.
13:57Got to be ready to hit if you're in the box.
14:04The wind of the pitch.
14:07Edge of the zone for a strike.
14:08And it's three and one.
14:10Generally, second, third time through the lineup.
14:12You want to be able to lean on those secondary pitches and command them.
14:16Looks like he's doing a nice job of it.
14:17We'll be able to get to it.
14:17And then we'll be able to go to the car.
