Cal Rley’s 34th home run this year. Matches a careerhigh on the 4th of July. Falter trying to get that fast ball in out over the plate. and Cal sitting on it. Let’s get tail of the tape on this one. Yeah, that is absolutely scorch. That’s a wine drive to highf fly ball way back there. Back at the wall. God, he’s hit it out again. It’s a career high 35th home run. Happy Independence Day, Cal Raleigh. He has now tied Ken Griffy Jr. for the most home runs ever hit before the All-Star break by a Seattle Mariner. History continues for Cal Raleigh. The pitch Pete skies it right field. Bends it at the track the wall. If it’s fair, it’s gone. It is Grand Slam Pete Crow Armstrong and PCA playing like MVP. What a beast. Second of the game. He’s driven in six. It is 8 to6 Cubs. What a performance by PCA yet again. My goodness. Asking for a crew chief review. I hit the poll. Right. This will be a crew chief review of the call on the field of a grand slam. After review, ruling on the field stands. It is a grand slam. You’re the Cubs that put contact in four pitches or less. Here’s some contact from Mason Win out to the gap from what a catch by PCA. But I tell you, Wayne, can he not go get it? the jump off the bat, the speed, the timing of the dive. Absolutely excellent. [Applause] He’s fun to watch. Back to the top of the order with Jacob Wilson. He wastes no time. Jacob Wilson. Welcome home. A two-run homer for Jay Willie. It’s two to nothing A’s. [Music] Go to work Jay Willie. Jacob Wilson all over that curveball. That thing just kind of sat up, stayed close to the inside part of the plate and Jacob Wilson opened up and hammered it. The 3-1. He hits this one to center field. That ball’s going back. That ball’s going back and gone. Jacob Wilson a multih homer game. Another two-run shot. Make it four to one. Contact hitter. Just call me slugger. Yeah. Put my foot in my mouth. My goodness. Fast ball up top. Jay Willie says, “I’ll meet you there.” Yeah, Jay Willie, I was talking about your ridiculous pop. How about it? That’s bounced on the left side. Backhanded by Wilson. Off balance throw. Got him. Nice play by Jacob to his right. That’s a fine play. The 6-3 on the put out. Worth an exclamation point. Every time you see that play, you might as well just call it the Derek Jeter play. those that can range far to the right into the hole and make the play without stopping their feet and drop a dime at the first baseman bag. I mean, look at here. And it doesn’t help to have a guy over there that’s 6′ everything. Yeah, you got a big target over there. Yoshino Yamamoto’s 2025 campaign. Eight starts at home compared to eight on the road or much different in the RA department. His strike three got him with the split below the zone. Got him swinging. Inning ending K for Yamamoto. Had another three Ks. Five out of eight outs with the fast ball. And here it is. But he’s down on three pitches. Backto back punch outs for Yamamoto. Strike three. Swinging. Fifth K for Yamamoto. Strike out number six here to begin the fifth. Yes, he did. This K comes in the breaking ball variety. Rojas couldn’t spoil that from Yamamoto. Another strikeout. Another seven inning performance from the right-hander. This ball’s set well to left center field. Jeremy Pñena starts the game with a leadoff home run in the bottom of the first. JP3 number eight on the year. Even though the roof’s closed, Lorenz struck early, got a slider on the outer third and went into launch mode. following some pop early. 415 ft. That is a nice way to start the night. And Pena delivers again. Backto back at bench. Pñena with a home run. He has driven in all three and we are tied up at three. Jeremy Pñena feeling it. Seeing the ball good out of Lel’s hand. That was a splitter down it and in he was able to clip that out in front. He is bashing JP with a multi home run game. He’s now up to nine home runs on the year. Number three makes it three to three. And there’s a line drive caught by Jeremy Pñena. The season starts with a spectacular play by the shortstop for the Astros. Robert Valdez loves it. This pitching staff loves it. That’s something we’ve become accustomed to here in Houston is great defense. And why not start with a dazzling leaping play from Jeremy Pñena? That’s some ups. Yeah, put that on a shoe. Now James Wood singled in the first. Since then, it’s been a tough night for James. Is hit back up the middle. McNeel has it scooped by him. Abrams the third. Ricky Gutierrez waving him home. Throw on the way. Yeah, time. The Nationals win. James won his first career walk-off. What a ball game at Nationals Park tonight. And they’re ripping the clothing off James Wood. Dan, how penny this game started basically with the Dylan Cruz hustle. Beginning parts of this game, it ends with the CJ Abrams Ricky Gutierrez combo. And Wood will drill one out to right center. That ball’s on the ground in front of Meadows to his left and the Nets are in business. Two on, nobody out. Oh, he’s going to lace one to left heading for the wall. And it hit the very top. And it might have hit the top and gone into the flowers. And let’s put it this way. See you later. James Wood number 23. And the NS keep blasting away. I mean, it’s an oppo blast on this one. And it skips off the top of the wall, off the back fencing, over the Flowers. Another great stroke the other way. James Wood’s going to do it again. He’s digging for two and the ball got there, but it was wide of the bag and then Torres went and got him. I was thinking a triple away from a cycle as he headed to second base there. What a job by James Wood just to get it out there. Two strike knock and Parker Meadows good arm out there at center field. Look at this. Another shot. James Wood is four for four. Came into the game hitting 283 with the on base percentage hit 387s. 3-2. He cranks one to right and for the first time in his career he is five for five. Oh, hardest hit ball tonight at 115 for the Reds. Andrew Abbott that 177 RA sixth best among men with 40 innings. Look at Oh, that is supreme location right there. Right on the outside corner right at the bottom of the kneecap. Beautiful back door bender. Strike three. Park from down there. Swing it a miss at the breaking ball. Tag applied. So you throw it where he can’t reach it. And that’s exactly where this pitch is. Sword strike three. Four strikeouts already for Abbott. Back who sends this one past short for a base hit. Struck him out. And Armstrong thumps the bat, tosses the helmet in frustration against losing clubs, which includes the Reds. Abbott gets the swing and miss. That’s his sixth strike out. Thank you. Tucker pops it up. You’re welcome. One, two, three for Abbott. 12 in a row retired. That swing and a miss. Seven strikeouts for Abbott. Little comio. You are doing your job in quite a brilliant way. A onehitter in progress. Seven shutout innings from Andrew Abbott. He stuck him out in the Padres’s win. They are able to shut out the Pirates today. And a clean sweep for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Jason Adam able to strike out McCutchen high heat at 96 after falling behind. Two and0 once again keeps it away. It’s up and away for the swing and miss. Get out the brooms. Sweeping in the steel city. Nine consecutive victories against the Pirates for the Padres. Waves at that and struck him out on a sweeper. waves at it and struck him out. Back-to-back strikeouts for Adam. Two down in the eighth. Swinging a miss. Struck him out. Elevated. Ends up striking out the side. We’re going to the bottom of the eighth. Tied at three. Jonathan Aronda and a high shot back into deep right. Judge back. And that baby is gone. Jonathan Aronda walks it off. A 1-1 pitch and he hits it out of here and the Rays win it 10 to8. How about that for a Phenom? And the Rays break that four game losing streak and win this one 10 to8. Lifts this one into deep right. Lauraniano’s not even going to move and that baby is gone. I mean out of here. He connected on that 3-2 pitch and the right fielder Lauraniano looked up and did not move as that ball sailed out of here. So I looked at Lauraniano. I thought he lost it at first. He just didn’t flinch because he knew it was an absolute tank to right field. Matthew Boyd, he has been so consistent. Yeah, especially here at Wrigley. He has a three erra, 4-0. He hasn’t walked anyone here since April 23rd. Swing and a miss. 95 on the edge and Beck swings through it. That’s right through there. See you later. He has struck out the first two here tonight. Swing and a miss. That was the change up and a good one. So against the righties, he’ll use that change up. He does it effectively, I think, especially with the way his four seamer is looking right now. Swing and a miss. And Toli is down on strikes. He chased the change up. Swing and a miss. Well, he absolutely ate up Moniac. So no trouble with the lefty right there. Another off speed pitch swung on and missed. Strike three. Now we talked about you know the change up the fast ball. You know that’s a good sequence of fast ball change up the back and forth to get a very good hitter in Tovar. Good pitch swing and a miss as he got him chasing a change up. Strike out number seven. Check swing. Did he go? Yes he did. Struck him out. Boyd gets the strike out. The Rockies get one on one hit, one error, leave none. Hunter Brown is now on the bump for the Houston Astros. 13 starts, a 1.82 ERA, is best in the American League for Hunter Brown. That whip still under one in 93 strikeouts and 79 in pitch for Hunter Brown. Nine punchies last time he was on the bump. Brown as good as he has been all year long, even better here at home with a sub one erra. One-two pitch called third strike outside corner says Mike Estbrook. A first strike out for Hunter Brown in the first batter he faces. Nice paint job. Swing and a miss. Another 98 mph fast ball. Has two strikeouts in the early going for Hunter. The diesel’s got the fuel flowing. Turbo Diesel in the first inning. 98 98 and 99 three strikeouts. Absolute noise out of the right arm of Hunter Brown establishing that fast early. Now the count’s even at two a piece. You see Yiner setting up outside again. Hunter stays in that set position for an extra beat and then he just smokes 98. All three of his first inning strikeouts were 98 or hotter in the first one here in the second inning as well. Forget about it. There’s another fast ball. That one at 96. So that doesn’t add to that percentage that we told you about cuz you threw the sinker there. That’s still a strikeout for number six in the game for Hunter. Ground ball backanded by Walker. He used Hunter Brown covering. That’s a nice defensive play for the Astros. First out of the fourth. That was a really good play all the way around. Hunter Brown was ready to get over there and cover after the great play by Christian Walker to his right. The ball hit pretty well, but Walker smothered it and an easy toss to Hunter Brown covering in front of the speedy Byron Bugs. That was textbook. Got him. Dropped the hook on him. And that’s strikeout number seven for Hunter Brown. Two outs in the inning. It’s part of the entertaining part about Hunter Brown is that we know he loves that fast ball. Will throw it frequently. He’ll get hitters to sit on it, but he also has some pretty good secondary pitches to go out there and get the strike out if guys are sitting on that fast ball. Got him. Hunter’s up to eight strikeouts through four innings. The Twins get their first base runner of the day, but Hunter has been in command, leading two nothing. Got him. Got the nemesis Willie Castro swinging on strikes. That is strikeout number nine for Hunter as he continues to strike out nine quite often this year. Does he go back to that pitch? We’ll see. One two count to Carlos Koreah. Called. Third strike number 10. Matches a careerhigh for Hunter Brown in strikeouts. First time this season with double digits in case. Brooks Lee, the two-run home run hitter for the Twins. Hit one into the Crawford boxes his last time up. Goes down here. That’s a new careerhigh in strikeouts for Hunter Brown. Number 11, setting a new mark. Just a matter of time before he broke through. Good breaking ball to get that swing over the top. Putting up allstar numbers that he picks up that careerhigh in strikeouts. He has a chance to pick up another and extend it to 12. He makes a good pitch here to Ty France. Give him 12. A dozen strikeouts for Hunter Brown. Another new careerhigh mark. It was power speed the first couple of innings. The last couple of innings, it’s been the power curve. No answer for the curveball. Darting well out of the zone from some some of these Minnesota Twin hitters. Clemens struck out his first time up. Taps this one towards first. It’s going to be Christian Walker making the play. Hunter Brown. Seven strong innings today. a new careerhigh with 12 strikeouts going up against Chris Bubich with his tiny 1.45 RA. That’s right. You know, if Bubich is anything like he’s been all season, they have their hands extremely full. Down goes Riley Green on three straight pitches and Bouvich strikes him out. Number two for Bouvich and number four in the series for Keith. on the ground to Loftton. Out at second, Massie to first. Double play. Zack McKinstry with a leadoff triple. Comes around to score. Hey, we’ll take it. They’ll roll him up on a Sunday afternoon. Bubich, you’ll love that. Thank you. Fast ball struck him out. That’s number three for Bubich. Chased. So, Bayz really helped him out there. Bubich has struck out four and that’s his first one, two, three inning for that. That’s five for Bouvich. That’s a three pitch strikeout. Bubich gets Malloy. Bubich strikes out his seventh. He has struck out three in a row close to a swing. And it is a swing. That was up and away. And Bayz went after that. And Bouvich has nine strikeouts. And Rogers makes contact and hits it into shallow right field. Rave is there. And Chris Bubich seven more innings and he is allowed just one run as Bubich gets a nice ovation coming off the mound. Launched to left field. It’s a grand slam. Junior Caminero has driven them all home. And the Rays with a fiveun ninth take an 11 to7 lead. Boy was that pitch hung. Junior Camroero did what he was supposed to with that. There is his first big hit on the road. It’s a grand slam and Tampa Bay is up 11 to7 now in the ninth inning. Wow. And a highf fly ball back into straightaway center. That’s got a chance. That baby is gone. Palmer run to center on an 02 pitch and Camro puts the Rays on the board with their first hit of the night and he cuts the deficit in half. There’s a drive down the right field line by Donovan. Did he keep it fair? He did. It’s off the foul pole. He ambushes and ties this game at 44. Fly Brendan Fly. New life for the Red Birds in the ninth. This ball is smoked off the bat of Brendan Donovan. Are you kidding me? Deposited right off of the foul pole down the line. And his first is on the way and rifle toward right center field. That’s well hit. That ball is gone. Lead off homer Brendan Donovan on the game’s first pitch. And here we go in Cleveland. Well, why let the young starter ease into it? When you get yourself a cookie, you eat it. And that’s exactly what Donnie did. First pitch fast ball, 93 mph, center cut, drives it out for his sixth of the season. Way to be ready early. Line left field and deep back and gone for a three-run home run. It’s a threerun homer into the Texas bullpen. Mel Garcia comes through again. And the Royals take a 4 to2 lead on a threerun bomb from Mikel Garcia, his eighth of the year with two men in scoring position. Garcia comes through bait. Garcia, he struck out on a high fast ball in his first at bat. Belted to the gap in left center field. That will be gone. And Mikel Garcia hits a line drive home run and the Royals tie it in the third. That ball carry or what? Did you think that was a home run? No, I thought it for sure is in the gap. 107 Exit Filo. It was nice and loud and this ball was not walking. This ball on the barrel to deep center field. Does it have enough? It definitely does. Home run Hunter Goodman. Four to two. Eighth of the year for Hunter and Spilly. Six of those eight out on the road. He just gets such great back spin for Hunter when he squares one up at 401 ft. And this ball is launched again to center field. Going back is Meyers watching it sail out. Hunter Goodman has just put the Rockies in front. 54 Colorado. Number nine for Goodman. in his third multi- home run game in his young career. And it also breaks that stretch of just scoring four runs or fewer in the last 10 games. This ball’s drilled to center field. Myers giving chase. Look it up. Boom. Roasted. Yes. Yes. He didn’t skip a beat. He did not. That is now 21 first pitch hits for Hunter Goodman. And he ties Nick Castanos who also has 29. In the air left Hunter Goodman, Rocky Mountain by Was that a Rocky Mountain by Yes. Well done. What a call. Hunter Goodman takes it six to five. His second homer of the day. Kenzie Gore to the mound and against the Phillies. A career RA of about three and a half and pitched really well against them toward the end of last season. Fast ball down and in for the strikeout to open the season. Welcome to 2025. Mackenzie Gore letting the fast ball rip up and away. Two up and two down on the swinging caves. Ball in two strikes. And McKenzie Gore’s fourth out is strikeout number three. 91 just stays right there at the middle. Spins right there. Nice job. And right now McKenzie Gore making some hitters look like they’re injured. He’s been doing it quickly. Like he has a really good idea like that. Wow. Down and away. Swang and a miss. McKenzie Gore. Four straight. And that’s the second out here in the third with Marsh coming up. Swang and a miss again. Five in a row since the base hit by Schwarber. He confident to go here with it. Swing and a miss from 300 to strikeout number eight. No chance. None whatsoever. And then off to Toronto for three before we come back for a week. Oh, that’s on the inside edge. Some paint from the lefty. 10 strikeouts now. Kind of like Rio Muto’s first AB before Gore got him, which he does again. That’s number 11. Since the first inning, there has been one out put in play by the Phillies. Swing and a miss. Ball in the dirt. Kar the assist and that’s a dirty dozen for Gore. Swang and a miss. Yeah, you’ll take the strike out there. A quick inning. That is 14 in a row retired by McKenzie Gordon. Two and two. Palasios was off balance on a curveball. It’s a popup third base side. It’s a long run. Dingler tips it. Oh, no. No, no, no. Come on. Zack McKinstry hauls it in. Wow. I mean, they do birthday parties, bar mitzvah, and anniversaries, too. The Dingler McKinstry juggling team booked today. McKinstry, a fly ball to right field. Jones is back. He’s at the track. He’s at the wall. And that ball is up and out of here. Zack McKinstry gives the Tigers the lead. Boy, good for Zack McKinstry. Gets a hanging curveball here and it gives the Tigers the lead. Now it’s going to be Trevor McIll on as we go to the 10th. Yeah, Trevor has been outstanding. I mean, that curveball has been tremendous as of late. Nothing to show for it. 0 for three with a walk and he is down swinging. Big fast ball. Freddy Freeman chasing. McIll cooking one up there at 101 for the first out. I’ll tell you, we’ve seen Freddy Freeman a lot over the years. We’ve never seen him like this. He is really scuffling up there at the plate. McGill with a big fast ball right on the edge and a very defensive swing by a very good hitter. The one two got him. blew him away with the gas. Back-to- back strikeouts for McIll. And with that delivery, the way he has this back to the hitter, you just can’t pick it up real early. Just comes on you quickly. Back-to-back punch outs. Will Smith still at second base. [Applause] Got him. [Music] [Applause] Jacob Mizarowski, they speak for themselves, but trying to bounce back after his first tough start of his career. Got him. There’s the slider and he gets smooky bets for route number one. He’s tried to throw a little bit too hard and it hung. That happens a lot. threw it there and he strikes out Freddy Freeman. Back-to-back KS for Miserowski. Got him. 101 on the outside corner. Msowski ends up striking out three and he struck him out with change up on the front door. Four straight KS for Miz. Got him.

And he struck him out. Curveball on the inside corner. That’s 11. Got a dozen. Four straight strikeouts now for Mizarowski. Ground ball. That’s a fair ball. Fawn has it. Takes it to the bag to get out number one. And runners are at second and third. Nice play. Ground ball to third. Monasterio has it. He’s coming home and they got Otani. What a play from Monasterio. Yeah, what a throw. I mean, he had to make sure he cleared Otani on the ground of Vaughn. Backhand play. What a start for Ms. Casey Mai Casey picked up his seventh win of the season in that last start against the uh the Pirates. 32 is a splitter for strike three to take down Cabanero. Wave and a miss. A slider that was up and boy nothing short circuits a brain like a high breaking ball. There’s strike three and one away. a high breaking ball. Feist goes down as the Rays look through their scouting report. I don’t know that high slurve pitch of doom was on there, you know, and and you never know. I I don’t know if that is by design. Uh that’s like right at the top of the strike zone. Three and two. Swing and a miss. Turned him inside out. There’s that buzzsaw sinker, Dan. Yeah, he got a little bit extra on that one. And I was wondering if he was going to go in there based upon him hitting that blast on an inside fast ball in yesterday’s game where he pulled his hands in. But that’s a really tough pitch. Well executed by Casey Mice. Bases loaded, two down. An 02 pitch to Marte. Hey, struck him out. More comes back to get him. Second time tonight the Diamondbacks have left him loaded. 02 pitch. Swing a miss. He struck him out. A one, two, three, seven. Braden Mory Hone. So the newest Allstar strikes out two, gets Ral Mudo. Then he gets Brandon Marsh. Seventh inning stretch. 3-2 Padres. [Music] This ballpark opened in 1912. This ball is absolutely crushed by Ryan O’Harn. Have a day Ryan O’Harn. He crushes number eight. And it’s 3 nothing O’s here in the six. Come on now. Turn and burn. O’Harn continues to do it folks. Came in hitting 315 on average has gone up a two for two day including his eighth long ball of the year. His 18th RBI. The birds up by three here. Was in the seventh inning as well. Oh to deep center field. Way way out of here. The Orioles were being no hit coming into this inning and now they can do nothing but hits backto backto back home runs from no hits to the lead. There’s David’s Toyota numbers coming off that wonderful start. He’s had one complete game this year. I he was thought he was going to get one against the Brewers his last start, but 103 pitches. It didn’t quite get out of that seventh inning. One out away from getting through seven. Holiday on deck and Stallins goes down swinging on the back foot slider. And there’s the first strike out of the day for Peterson. So he’s now in the top 10 among med lefties. One, two coming. Swing and a foul tip held on to by Torren for strike three. So back-to-back strikeouts for Peterson to end the third. No score in Baltimore. That was rough. That’s no good. That’s drilled to left. On comes NMO and he makes the catch. A bullet off the bat of Aras and NMO going into a slide and making the grab to get Peterson through the fourth. Missed two months. And a fast ball got him looking. Third strike out for Peterson. Cowser was not looking for the fast ball. She was coming on the outside corner. got him looking. Second call, third strike in the inning for Peterson as he gets Mayo. One- nothing Mets after five. Holiday a much bigger lead on the snap throw. He got it. Oh, Peterson led that perfectly. Holiday after one throw over took an extra step and a half on his lead at Peterson guns him down. That’s his third pick off of the year, the 18th of his career. That’s a too big a lead and he is dead to rights. Young player got out foxed and O’Neal goes down swinging on the curve ball. Two men down. Five strikeouts for Peterson. Two out of the seven. And he struck him half. Threw a fast ball by him. Six strikeouts for Peterson and he’s through seven scoreless innings with four left in the tank. Well, how about these numbers from Drew Rasmusen against the Yankees? Four games, three of them starts, a perfect two and0 record. 21 innings worth of work. No runs given and the strike out on a little cut. That’s the cutter. You had a little bit of depth to it. It was very, very late and it was able to just dive bomb underneath the swing of Rice and he gets the strikeout cut and the miss. So that is out number one and he got him right back with the hard stop. That’s a great read because the previous pitch told you, wow, he is late against New York and he gets the strike out there and he comes right back to 97 again and strikes him out. And why wouldn’t you? This is just reading the hitter. That pitch came back and got him on that corner and Rice caught looking two seamer front door. That pitch you started in off the plate. A hitter recognizes it as off the plate, gives up on it. And look at how it glides back to the corner. And he gets the strike out there. The Goldmith out on strikes. So far out in front of that sweeper. Got him. How about that? In the end, he climbed the ladder with the fast. Got Whit to go with him. And did he go around? He did. Got him. Strikes out the side. Mix in a walk. Giants are coming up. They lead three to one. Got him. So that’s the ball game. And after the tough loss on Friday night, the Giants come back and they win back-to- back games and they take the series and they even up the home stand. They’re now three and three with the Marlins coming to town. He’s thrown more fast balls again this year. that usage up a little bit and struck him out. 94 on a fast ball from Ryan. Beat up on these teams. And then you go to Cleveland, you go to Boston, find a way. Strikes out Travis Darno. Well, he he’s got a lot of confidence in the sweeper early here. We’ve seen pretty much fast ball sweepers so far and mixing and matching sweepers and sliders in the same at bat. Best VO so far. 95 on a fast ball and Joe Ryan six up, six down. Strikes out the side. You can do that or he looks like he’s going back up. Yeah, save with the fast ball. That’s four straight strikeouts. See if Ryan goes after him here. 3-2. And he struck him out. A foul tip. Hung on to by Jeffers. And Ryan is perfect through three. He struck out five. And there’s strike three on the corner. And the inning is over. 0 and two on Davis. Runner stays and the pitch. A swing and a miss. Throw back to first. And to your point, Davis a quick at bat. He’s 0 for two. Strikes out for the second time today. 70th pitch here today. And it’s going to lead to his eighth strikeout. Another swing and a miss with his fast ball. And Ryan does see the minimum. And the 2-2. And look at that movement. Ryan skips off the mound and strikes out Paris. And there’s the ninth strikeout from Ryan. That’s a season high, three shy of his careerh high. Both have been healthy at the same time. And now Ryan strikes out Trout for the first time. And that’s the 10th strikeout for Joe Ryan today. He’s got so much confidence in the fast ball right now. Doesn’t matter who’s up there. And now the O2 pitch. Hey, struck him out at 93. Joe Ryan likely done for the day. Works seven shut out striking out a season high 11. Shane Smith the 63 two full righty in his rookie season here with the White Socks brings the team on the field. He has been so sensational but he goes down swinging for out number two. Two high fast balls, the finale of which was 96 upstairs. 3-2. Got him swinging. Shane Smith bringing the heat here in the first. One, two. There goes Norby. Throw down a second. Safe. One, two, pitch. Swinging a miss. Four punch outs for Shane Smith here in the first two innings. There’s that fast ball at 96. Fifth strikeout for Shane Smith. Shane Smith is quickly realizing his stuff is elite as he racks up another strikeout. Have some. The new pitch for Shane Smith has just been magical this season. That change up. And it all comes down to this. Now you got no wiggle room if you’re Miller in a big mono emano big boy matchup. Can Sters stay redot? Swinging a ball lifted in the air deep left center field. Sters. No way. A walk off grand slam. This kid is unconscious. No way he do that. This place is going bananas. A hit as big as they get. Here’s Kyle Sters who’s two for two today with a pair of homers who swings and he lifts one in the air deep to right field away back and gone. Sters with his third of the afternoon and he is doing damage. Three at bats, three home runs. You talk about consistency. He has had 15 consecutive starts where Brian has gone six or more innings pitched. A wave and a miss. Goes chasing after that sweeper in the other batters box. Swing and a miss. Fast ball gets Garcia. Second strike out for Woo. Does he go? He goes around. Here comes the two- two. Swung on and miss. Down he goes. He got it by him. A fast ball. And that’s it for Texas here in the third. Swung on and miss. It’s a weak wave upstairs at a fast ball. Strike out number five for Woo. There’s one away here in the fourth. Swing and a miss. Woo got him. Strike three call. Throws him on a fast ball. Swing and a miss. Elevated fast ball and Garcia strikes out for the third time. Eight punch outs today for Brian Woo. Swung on and missed. He got him. He has matched his career height in strikeouts for his second straight start. Nine punch shots for Brian Woo. Popped him up. Cole Young underneath it. 16th time this year Brian Woo has got at least six innings and he has mashed a career best once again with nine strikeouts today.
