🔴LIVE 🔴Tampa Bay Rays VS Seattle Mariners/August 8/MLB THE SHOW 25
Martinez Drive. Welcome to T-Mobile Park. We’ve got open air baseball for you on the show. It’s the Tampa Bay Rays taking on the Seattle Mariners. First pitch coming your way next. Your Seattle Mariners just about ready to go. And our pitcher tonight, Logan Gilbert. And Singy, we were talking earlier about how he’s doing a great job navigating through tough spots. I’ve just been so impressed with when it seems like there’s more pressure, he’s more calm and settles in. He’s done an incredible job with runners in scoring position. And most guys, they get a little tight, they start to aim the baseball, but for some reason he gets looser, the ball comes out of his hand with more life, and he’s able to wiggle off the hook of, you know, tough situations and get his team back in the dugout. Number 14, the leadoff batter, as he looks at ball one. And there’s a foul ball. Next pitch is outside. And he lays down a bunt, has to bare-hand it over to first, but he beats it out. And the leadoff man is on with an infield single. He was racing down the line and probably didn’t assume he was going to be safe until his foot hit the bag and looked up for the umpire. Nice bunt and great hustle to get himself a knock. Yandi Diaz now one strike in the dirt but no advance. That’s ball one. Right-hander kicks, steals, and that one is in for a strike. Good pitch. Good approach right there. You want to get something just a little higher that you can elevate. Stay out of that double play. Now one out to right. Kenzone on his way over. He’s got it. And there’s one away. Batting third base. All right, let’s take a look at the Rays lineup. They’re dealing with a top level arm on the mound. So, this figures to be a tough matchup for him. What’s the key to the offense today, Singy? Oh, Boo, I think when you got a guy that’s this talented on the mound, you got to find ways to disrupt his rhythm, make him uncomfortable a little bit, the guys that can handle the bat and perhaps, you know, bunt bunt for a base hit. Get him moving off the mound. If you’re in the box and he seems to be just in a flow, step out, mess up his timing somehow. Runner to go. strike in there. And that’s a stolen base. Not even close. Come on now. Man at second. Swing and a ball ripped right field. And that one back and that one is gone. That’ll fire up the dugout. He’s up to three home runs in the series. It’s two nothing. For a pitcher, the odds are in your favor if you keep that breaking ball down. That time he got punished for it. Hitter just did a really good job of staying within himself and getting the barrel to the baseball. Base is empty, one away. And now it’s Brandon Laauo. Just off the inside edge. And Singi, as a team, you need to make the most of the very few opportunities he’s going to give you. Right. Absolutely. And and you know, if you don’t get to guys like this a lot of times early, once they really settle in, it’s going to be the later innings that they hand that ball over to a reliever, if they do at all. Swing and a miss. Chased it out of the zone. Wow. No fair right there. I mean, that slider didn’t move till the very last moment. Incredibly difficult to pick that up. Just kind of have to tip your cap on that pitch. One down, base is empty. That’s down and in. Foul ball. Another two- two upcoming now. One missed. fights it off. You’ll see another. Flew open a little bit with that front shoulder, but was able to slow his bat down just enough to make contact with that pitch. Keep the at bat alive. Cut on and miss. Struck him out. He didn’t make it easy for him on the mound, but they still get the strike out. Well, that high force seam fast ball, it’s become such a staple as a strikeout pitch over the years. And what’s so tough as a hitter is that you see it extremely well. The problem is the velocity and spin rate just happens to jump by you. You expand your zone, you don’t stay tall on the backside, and you’re really not even able to make contact. If you do, many times it’s a popup. with that fast ball. Even though it’s high velocity, you’ve got to live on the outer edges. When it’s right on a tea, right down the middle, professional hitters are not going to have a problem turning it around. And here is Johnny Duca. And he swings and misses at the initial offering. Kim, the runner at first with two gone. Ground ball right side lays out but he can’t squeeze it to first and he beats it. Everyone’s safe. Batting seven right first and second two outs. low getting ready to hit. Line drive caught, but two come across to score in the inning courtesy of this two-run homer. It’s now a two nothing ball game. It’s Major League Baseball and it’s on the show. Back at T-Mobile Park and on the hill in this one, Shane Bos. Chris, it’s a little more common these days, but still he’s a strikeout per inning type of guy. Well, I hear you about the strikeouts. a lot more guys striking out today. But when you consider having the ability to get that strike out, particularly when you need it, a man on third, less than two outs, situations where, yeah, maybe you’re not a real high strikeout guy, but just knowing you have the swing and missed stuff in a big spot, I think it’s real critical. And he’s got it. Randy Rosarena leading things off and takes a strike. Bos measures 6’2 in. He features a four seam fast, a slider, a curve, and he works in a change up and he takes a strike. Looked pretty good as far as being in the strike zone, but I’m sure as a hitter not too good with where it was located. Very top of the strike zone, middle away and ball one. Well, after scoring runs, this is where you’re looking for that shut down inning. Get that hot team back in there to swing the bats. Fights that one away. Still one and two. That wasn’t an easy pitch to hit. It’s much easier to do damage against mistakes, but that’s not what that pitch was. Oh, can’t pick it up cleanly. Still fires to first and save. Couldn’t recover from the misplay. Pretty much gifted a leadoff base runner right there. And as an offense, this is where you really want to take advantage. Apply some pressure this inning. Make that error hurt. And now for Seattle, Cal Raleigh. He’s one of the best players in the game. And that’s outside. Next offering in there for a strike and it’s one and one and that is out of play with two strikes. may see some movement over there at first base. Trying to stay out of the double play right here on the ground right side down the line and it’s foul just off the outside edge and the count now even up. good spot there, but didn’t get the strike at the knees and doesn’t seem too convinced by the call out there on the mound as he tries to get a better sense of the umpire strike zone. Knocks that one away and will do it again. Just missed. If he’s able to connect on that, look out. Missed with a change up. Full countdown. Julio Rodriguez in the on deck circle hoping to get a chance to make a big impact here. 3-2 now. Gets a piece there. We’ll do it again. I wouldn’t throw him another breaking ball. Try to go again with a fast ball. Slightly elevated. He just having a hard time catching up. And ball four, two aboard. Oh, looking for a swing anding miss right there or for the ump to help him out and make a call with that last pitch, but neither happened. Cole’s pitch, but a good take to earn that wall. And now it’s Julio Rodriguez. Way high there. Ball one. just missed. Good spot for the hitter. Definitely has the advantage in this count with runners on. Look for him to be aggressive on this next pitch. Popped up foul territory behind the plate. Makes the catch and there’s one gone. And now we check out the Mariners lineup. One guy leading the way offensively for this club right now, Cal Raleigh. And Boo, he’s the table setter for this offense. Team leader and on base percentage. I mean, that just gives your teammates plenty of chances to cash in and bring him around to score. Man, I used to love when I had a guy out in second base or third base. Easy to get those RBI’s. Game after game, you know, a guy like this, what he’s going to provide and the opportunities that other guys are going to get in the lineup. Josh Naylor in the box now. Takes strike one. Really good job in this spot to get ahead in the count. He’s going to have to continue finish off this hitter. Just missed at the dish looking to lift the ball in the air in this spot. Anything but the inning ending double play. Boog. Ah, ground ball and that’s through the infield. A Rosena headed for the plate now. A long throw home but it’s offline. He will score and it’s a one-run game. Well, he comes through clutch with the RBI single. That was big. Not much to this one other than just a willingness to go the other way and put the ball in play. That’s a team to bat right there. Nice job of staying back and letting the ball get deep. Au Suarez up to the plate now. And that misses one and0. Let’s go. Traffic on the bases with one already in as the Rays try and punch back down a run. Not even close there. Two and one. ripped but a curls foul. Two on, one out. Got him. Two out. Typically that high fast ball if it’s close to the top of the strike zone a hitter if he’s prepared for it can get to it. But that one just had that little jump at the end which indicates there’s a good spin rate on it and it didn’t decrease in velocity as that hitter’s internal clock would expect it to and that’s why you see the swing and miss. The batter now Jorge Palano and there’s a ball. Hard grounder into the outfield for a knock. Runner around third on his way to the plate. He’ll score and the Mariners have tied the game. It’s an RBI single. It’s 2-2. Big RBI for him right there. I really like that swing, man. He didn’t just push it the other way through the infield. He drove it that way. And it kind of makes me think he was thinking opposite field as he stepped into the box. Got a pitch he liked and he got it done. So, two down. Mitch Garver up to hit here. Outside corner. There’s the strike. Well, lots of pitches thrown in this first inning. It’s kind of that nightmare scenario for starting pitching. But you know what? It’s still early enough. He can settle in. And he can get some length if he just cleans up his mechanics a little bit. Not close with that one. One ball, one strike. Deep drive down the line. Foul ball. Next pitch misses inside. Two and two. And it’s fouled off. They’ll do it again. Two on, two outs. And that’s outside. Dominic Panzone in the deck circle hoping to get a chance to make a big impact here. Outside corner got him looking. They get two and draw even again. We’ll head to inning number two at T-Mobile Park. We are tied 2-2. Second inning, set to go. And stepping in for the Rays, Christopher Morell. Bottom of the zone and a called strike. Umpireing behind the plate for us today, Boog, is Mike Filillmore. And he is a good one. He’ll reward pitches on the edges a little bit, but the main thing is he doesn’t keep you guessing. Once he established that a pitch is a strike, it stays that way. And that one is downstairs. And that’s ball two. Yeah, Philillmore kind of I don’t know, you’d say maybe an umpire’s umpire, but really consistent, very fair. Swang and a miss. Two and two. Caught him looking for the K. You think he caught him off guard with a fast ball right there, Chris? He didn’t look ready for it. Yeah, no doubt. I think that’s exactly what happened. You looked at the sequence of pitches. He didn’t see anything firm until that last fast ball. So, you got to think he was still sitting off speed and just couldn’t react quick enough to even get a swing off. That’s good pitching right there. Here’s the catcher, Nick Forez. First offering misses badly for ball one. That one ripped. A Rosarena makes the play and there are two outs. Not fooled at all right there. He was clearly all over it, but sometimes you hit it too hard and right at someone. You’re looking for one of those bloop hits to get a knock sometimes. So, the lineup flips over and next is the designated hitter. And he drops it down the third baseline and he barehands it and he beats it. He’s safe. Nearly a highlight reel play at third, but the bare hand grab still wasn’t enough to get the out. Great effort to make that play as close as it was, though. Two outs, runner at first. Yandi Diaz digs in now. He’s 0 for one. And that’s him for a strike. It’s 0 and one. He gave up a couple of runs in the first. His offense picked him up. It’s time for him to settle in now and throw up some zeros on that scoreboard. Check on the runner and he’s back in safely. Tampa swing and a miss as he was out front that time. Next pitch, a slider that misses outside. Really good slider. He’s up there just hoping that it ends up off the plate away. Squirts away a little bit. battling here as he fouls it away. Strike them out. Some heat there at 98 m an hour. One left for Tampa. Score remains 2-2. Back in Seattle, we head to the bottom of the second. Stepping in, Dominic Canzone. And that one is inside ball one. Slapped hard the other way but foul. The one-1. That one missed. Swanging a ball drilled center field and puts the squeeze on that one. One down. Batting ninth, the short stop, JP. And up next for Seattle, JP Crawford. MVP MVP MVP MVP and a foul ball. A short stop takes a ball. Definitely a swing and miss slider down and in. He finished that really well. Just couldn’t get him to offer at it. That misses now. Two balls in a strike. One out. Base is empty. Swinging a foul out of play. And a swing and a miss. that Kay is his third of the game. Well, when you commit to throwing an inside fast ball to your glove side across the strike zone, especially with two strikes, if you’re going to miss, you want to miss off the plate in. You do not want to leave it out over the heart of the plate. So, that was excellent execution on that pitch. Really tied him up and he couldn’t get a piece at all. Now, it’s Randy Rosarena. on the outside corner and it’s 0 and one. He’s a bad ball hitter, so even if you get him to chase pitches outside the zone, he still might beat you. Not an easy out by any means. Two out, space is empty. Let’s go. Foul ball. Breaking ball misses. on it away and a swing and a miss. He’s notched four strikeouts now. Mariners go down quietly there. Score remains deadlocked to 2-2. And we’re back onto the third inning now up for Tampa Bay. Junior Camro. Gilbert back to work. Breaking ball inside and it’s one and0. And a swing and a miss. There’s that slider. Next offering is fouled back now. All even up center field. Rodriguez under it. Hauls it in for the out. Now batting second base. Lao at the plate. Went down on strikes his first time through. Mariners in there for strike one. That slider breaking in can be a tricky pitch. If you don’t finish it and have that bite at the end and it stays out over the plate, it can get hit a long way. But that was a good one right there. Next offering is in for a strike. Swing and a miss. Struck him out. Make it four strikeouts for him on the bump today. Made quick work of him right there, Singi. I know that’s the kind of at bat maybe leaves a lot of fans wondering what was he doing up there, right? Yeah, and I get that. I mean, you take two straight strikes then chase one way out of the zone. It’s it’s just not a good at bat. It’ll leave you shaking your head as a hitter, if not worse. But there’s always going to be those trips to the plate where you’re just lost up there. And that was one of them for sure. Kim the next to hit takes ball one. Two down. Nobody on. Now this is in the air down the line. Kenzone sizing this one up. Carous it. And that’ll do it. Home half of the third coming up. All even at two and two. ready to go for the last half of the inning. And stepping in for the Mariners, Cal Raleigh. Well, he’s been having a great year this year and hitting home runs at a good clip and the matchup is very favorable. That one finds the zone and one. Well, these Mariners doing a great job, Boo, of just waiting for the right pitch to come their way. And I’m seeing very patient at bats out of them. They’re doing a good job of working the pitch count. And they’ve been able to push a couple of runs across to score as well. Foul ball still 0 and two. Still relatively early, but with a pair of runs already on the board, the ripple effect of that high pitch count might set them up to do more damage later in this game. fans another and that’s three straight strikeouts. Oh, you know that’s got to be very frustrating for this guy. He knows the strike zone extremely well. And you know what? Good hitters are not going to compromise. He’ll take that punch out, but ultimately stick with his plan and have more success than anything else. Here’s the center fielder, Julio Rodriguez. Swing and a miss. That’s strike one. There’s the strike. cut on and lifted in the air. Diving makes the grab. Hitter’s got a broken heart on that one. It had base hit written all over it. Maybe extra bases. Great diving catch for the upset. And now it’s Josh Naylor. Singled and drove in a run his first time through. Just missed. Let’s go Seattle. Nope. Not the ball. Swing and a ball lifted in the air and that will fall and that keeps the inning going. The first move felt like a bit of a guess. You have to be right in those spots or things can get away from you awfully quickly. Suarez. Audio Suarez up to hit now. Struck out swinging his first time. And that’s in there for strike one. Swinging a foul back and that’s out of play. Naylor off of first with two away. Cuts and misses. It’s a strikeout. Mariners leave one and this game is still tied at two and two. And welcome back to the ballpark. Now it’s going to be Johnny Duca. This is a guy who’s in the lineup first and foremost because of what he contributes defensively, Chris. And when you talk about preventing runs from being scored, this guy is a big contributor. There’s the strike. I was always told it’s hard to take you off the field when you play really good defense, especially at a premier position. And that’s what he does. And that one upstairs, ball one. The hitting’s going to come around. He’s going to figure it out. But right now, his big asset is the way he plays the game on defense. That’s off the mark. Two and one. You got two balls, one strike, and a bunt towards third and foul ball. Line and a base hit into right now. So, a runner aboard to start the inning. Anytime you rip a line drive the other way, you feel really good about what you did at the plate. You trusted your hands. You let the ball travel and you took the barrel straight to it. That’s great work right there. And now let’s see if they force some action with good wheels on the bases. And here comes the Mariners manager to the mound. Pitching change coming. Logan Gilbert is done. And it’s a tie ball game as he heads for the dugout. Back with a new arm after a quick break. So, out of the paint comes the right-hander Matt Brash. And we all know about his slider. It’s just filthy, man. And one of the better ones in the game, I’d say. Spin rate’s very high and it just breaks a ton. Go ahead run on base. So, next to the plate for Tampa Bay, Josh Low. 0 for one so far. And the first offering is not close. That one drilled left field and that’s just fouled. 1-1 now. tapped at the plate, but it’s a foul ball on the inside corner for called strike three. Oh, just a beautiful fast ball on the inside corner for that backwards K right there. I think the hitter saw it all the way coming from that opposite arm angle. So, I got to think he was looking away and just got locked up by the heartst boring in on his hands. Now the left fielder Christopher Morell outside low and that’s ball one. Ball one. No strike with a go ahead run at first. Top half of inning number four. Go. He looks more focused at the plate and working the count after that first at bat strikeout. And that’s off the inside edge. And now 3 and 0. And a slider in there for a strike right through there for a strike. And boy, that was the pitch. 3-1. You want to be really aggressive on the fast ball. And ball four, two aboard. just missed his spot on the inside right there. Now batting catcher Nick Forz. Two on, one out. And now the catcher for the Rays, Nick Forez. He’s 0 for one. The last thing he wants is to hit the ball on the ground, but I wouldn’t expect many pitches up in the zone. They’ll be pitching for a double play in this spot. Downing ball here. Rolls foul. Two on, one out and a count. One and two. All sliders so far in this at bat to get ahead in the count and clearly shows there was a game plan in mind for how to attack him in the box. To the right side to Crawford for one. Throw to first, but he beat it. To the plate now for the Rays is the DH. He’s two for two. That one close rule to ball. Ball one. Homeplayed umpires trying to tighten things up a little bit. Close one. Doesn’t get the call. Down two and 0. Top of the zone for a called strike. Really been able to slow down the game tonight with his at bats and the biggest one he’s had so far. He doesn’t look anxious at all. Line drive and that one’s gone. a threerun dinger. His first homer of the year. It’s 52. Chris, we knew this moment was coming for him soon. Yep. And it finally came. We knew it was only a matter of time before he’s going to connect with one just like that. Just too good of a hitter at the plate. Knew what pitch he wanted to hit. Spent on some other pitches in this at bat. Was very patient and it paid off. So two down and now Yandi Diaz bowl for two in this one and that’s outside and that’s ball one. Brash 26 years old and he was drafted in the fourth round back in 2019. And another ball activity in the bullpen. Ryan Woo getting ready to go. Kar also getting ready. Two outs. I’m sorry. That’s a ball. And that’s ball four. He tried to nibble right there and just missed his spot. Hitter didn’t offer at it. Now he has somebody to worry about over at first. And stepping in for the Rays, Junior Camro. He’s already homered here in this one. And first offering is fouled off. Can’t love it cleanly. Still manages a throw. They get the force. That ends the frame. But the biggest swing of the inning comes right here. A three-run homer. It’s 52. Back at T-Mobile Park, ready to go. Bottom four. And now for Seattle. Jorge Palano. Seattle. Fast for a strike. Movement in the bullpen. Garrick Clevenger, the left-hander, up and throwing. Seymour also throwing. Foul ball there. Got him looking. That’s a strikeout. Wow. Short work to send him packing to start the inning. And no messing around either. All three pitches were in the strike zone. Attack mode all the way. And that’s pretty impressive given the pop he was dealing with at the plate. Now the Mariners catcher Mitch Garver. He was a strikeout victim his first time. Swinging a foul back. That’s out of play. Oh, I think the key I mean if he can get through one more inning, anything after that, a hitter or two is bonus, but they should be lined up good enough to get to the finish line. And a breaking ball misses outside. down on strikes looking for the second straight plate appearance. Frustrating end to the at bat for the hitter. And I’m sure that’s going to sit on him for a little while. You want to be ready to hit the fast ball. Sometimes you can overthink things and I think that was the case right there. Kenzone stands in now and watches strike one. Seattle and a swinging miss. Another O2 count right here. Pitcher just in the driver’s seat. He can go anywhere he wants to go right here. That one’s upstairs. Ball one. Pretty standard high 02 fast ball right there. If you’re smart, you’ll look for something down in the zone, but not too far. Don’t want to chase that breaking ball in the dirt. Swings through it for the K. And he strikes out the side for the second time today. And one, two, three Golden Mariners. And the deficit remains 52. Now pitching. Ryan Woo on a pitch out of the pen here. Definitely a guy that pounds the strike zone, makes hitters earn their way on base, and rarely gets in trouble because of free passes. Now it’s the second baseman, Brandon Laauo, who’s 0 for two with a pair of strikeouts. And immediately pumps in a strike to the left-handed hitter. Pretty rare location right there. Right down the middle. Well, this guy paints the edges. I’m not sure if you’re going to see that pitch again as a hitter. Swing and a ball lifted to center field. Palano makes the grab. One away. Now batting short stop Kim. Now up for Tampa Bay. Hassan Kim one for two check swing called strike trying to bunt his way on and it goes just foul. Oh, that one missing inside. Foul ball still a one and two count. Keeps the bat going with a foul ball. Pitcher having a pretty tough time getting that swing and miss. Third foul ball in a row. Misses the zone for a ball. That was the sweeper. Got him looking and he didn’t like the call. That was a pretty fun at bat right there. But you kind of hate to see a long battle like that end on a questionable call. I think he was right and letting it go. Frustrating result after he fought so hard at the plate. Two down, base is empty. So next to the plate for Tampa Bay, Johnny Duca. That’s in there. 0 and one. Line drive, base hit, and that extends the inning. Now batting right fielder Josh Low. So up next Josh Low. Mariners. That one off the mark and that is ball one. Two outs. Ruer takes off. Pitching for a strike. Throw. Save. That was close. But Stackcast shows us why he so often seems to be on the safe side of these steel attempts. Chris. Yeah, you see that plus speed and he needed every last bit of it to swipe that bag. Such a threat on the bases. Man on second, two down and it is two and one. Tap foul at the plate. And it remains two and two. Duca stands at second with two gone. And they’ll do it again. Fouled off the plate. They’ll do it again. Also really good at bat. What I like about this guy, his bat stays in the zone for a long time. Gives him the ability to foul off tough pitches. That one misses and it’s a full count. Was good pitch there. really had some run and finished a little up and end just on the edge. And that’s one of those if you swing at it, he had a broken bat as you jog back to the dugout. Come on, Seattle. Man at second. Hard hit to third. And that is that. The Rays strand just the one. They’re still out in front 52. Back now to start the bottom of the fifth and taking over on the mound, Garrick Clevenger. Well, he’s a big time strikeout guy out there this season, averaging more than one per inning. Garrick Clevenger. And stepping in for the Mariners, JP Crawford. The Mariners in striking distance, but have some work to do. Boo, it starts with the laidoff man. I need a good at bat out of him right here. And that’s off the outside edge and it’s one and0. Well, these Mariners need to bring up the quality of their at bats and specifically their swings. They’re trying to find ways to drive the ball with some authority, but it’s just not happening for them so far. Zero extra base hits in the game. So, it’s been tough for him to get anything going. The one-1 is fouled off. Sometimes you have to keep chipping away until you break through. But it’s a lot easier to put runs on the board when you have guys in scoring position because they put themselves there. Foul ball left side. He’ll see another. Let’s go Seattle. That misses. Two balls, two strikes. It’s getting squeezed a little bit here late. Ripped to third. Over to first. Great pick. Good stretch there to make the play. It looks like someone added a little yoga to their daily routine if you ask me. Here’s the left fielder, Randy. Rosarena. All right, this one in the air. Diaz moves under it, puts it away for the now. batting designated hitter. Now it’s the Mariners DH Cal Raleigh. This guy is one of the best athletes in the sport. And the first pitch misses for ball one. Swinging a miss as he was late. I got a ball. One strike. Boom. That’s inside. bows it back with two strikes. Come on, Mariners. And misses inside. He should get a pretty good pitch to hit here with the three-hole hitter coming up if he’s walked. Come on, Seattle. And here’s a 3-2. And that’s ball four. Tried another slider, but it missed the plate. One of the things about that two-out walk, the base runner over at first base is going to have a very aggressive secondary lead. So, a ball down the line or into the gap will produce a two out RBI. And those are the best. That is if you are the offensive side of it. Rodriguez in the box again. Takes a strike a little out front there as he swings through it. high in the air out to right. Drops in for a hit. Couldn’t run it down. Coming home safe. And now just a two-run deficit. Well, that certainly feels good when you can win the atbat after being down in the count up against it with two strikes right there. He hit that ball really well to deep right field right there. Got a pitch to drive and just stayed through it nicely. Didn’t quite have the trajectory to clear the fence, but you’re always happy with an extra base hit. Really important at bat coming up now. Here’s Josh Naylor. Hard ground ball for a base stop. Here’s Rodriguez trying to score. He’ll score and it’s an RBI single and it’s now 54. Always feels amazing getting a job done when the team needs you to come through. It’s just bigger than your own individual stats. Just a simple ground ball the other way that had eyes on it. Man, sometimes that’s all you need to do. Just let the ball travel, put the ball in play, and just hope it finds a hole. And the Rays manager making his way towards the mound now as he will make the move. Garrick Clevenger won’t go any further and he leaves in a one-run game. New pitcher coming on. We’ll be back in a minute. So, the closer summoned from the bullpen, Pete Fairbanks. These are the spots relievers really make a name for themselves late and close. There’s not much margin for error, but at the same time, there’s a reason they’re put in these situations. Substitution now at first base. And here’s the pinch runner, Cole Young. Two outs, runner on first. Auheno Suarez up next for the Mariners. Three pitch strikeout last time up. Got to put up more of a fight in this one. First offering misses badly for ball one. Well, in this situation, the hitter knows that he’s got to find a pitch that he can drive in order to drive in that tying run all the way from first base. So, if he can’t do that, keep the line moving through a walk or just a base hit. But, you got to stay within yourself. If you’re a base runner, you got to stay dialed in here. Look for anything in the dirt. Try your best to get into scoring position. Squirts away a little bit. Goes to second. Save. And he’s into scoring position with two away on a wild pitch. You know, sometimes it takes a reliever a little time to get comfortable with the mound out there, especially when they come in trying to be nasty with every pitch they throw. Not exactly what they were looking for when they called him in, though. We’ll see if he can settle down. Swing and a miss. Struck him out. That ends the inning and stops things from getting out of hand. So, it’s two runs on two hits, no errors, and a runner left. We’re through five. It’s the Rays five and the M’s four. So, coming into the game now on defense, Dylan Moore. He takes over as the new first baseman, number one game. And stepping in for the Rays, Christopher Morell. He is struck out and he is walked. Woo! Back to work. Fast ball in for a strike and it’s 0 and one. Well, these Rays doing a good job of putting the ball into play and that makes things more challenging on the defensive side. They’ve done a great job finding holes in the defense. Exactly half of their hits have come off the bat less than 90 mph. So, the ball isn’t exactly jumping off the lumber, but they’re finding a way to make it work. Pitch misses. One and two to count. Popped up. Suarez puts it away for the out. And there’s one down. Good hard fast ball up in the zone right there. They look really good coming in, but so hard to get on top of as a hitter. Nick Forz next to hit for the Rays. Come on. And that’s downstairs. Ball one. Hard hit down the line and left. That’s a fair ball and it’s getting into the corner now. He’ll turn for second. The throw in. Throw is offline and he’s got a double. Well, a swing like that can help you come out of the struggle. We saw the numbers coming into the ball game, but all he’s trying to do at this point is help his team win. Next to hit number 14. He really made his presence felt back in the fourth inning of this one. Singy. Absolutely. Three-run blast and a shot of energy for his teammates. Everyone in that dugout was pretty fired up. Liner base hit. Rounds third headed for the plate now. A long throw home, but it’s offline and it’s 6-4. A costly mistake in the outfield thanks to the bad read and terrible timing for that to happen. That’s a play you just want to forget about. One down. Yandi Diaz next to hit for the Rays. Yeah, the pitch is in for a strike. It’s 0 and one. Could use a ground ball here. Something in the infield. Runner at first base. Get two. Get out of this. Pickoff throw. And he’s back in on a dive. Man at first, one away. Ruer takes off. Pitch in for a strike. Throw to second. He’s safe. Singy. The best way to catch this guy might be on replay. Yeah, and sometimes it’s the only way to catch him, Boo. I mean, you see that sprint speed on Statcast right there. It’s elite and just makes it very tough on the defense. A lot of pressure on those guys and foul ball at second. Foul ball. It stays nothing and two inside just missed. That one called just inside I think and on the mound he’s trying to get a little bit of an explanation. Doesn’t seem to be too bothered by it though, but he clearly thought it clipped the corner. swings and hits one in the air out towards right field. Kenzone moving under this one and makes the grab. Grounder tags at second and he moves up to third. Now two away. Now batting third base Junior Camro. Yeah, the batter now Junior Camro. And it was a homer back in the first inning that got his day started at the plate. Yeah, Boo. two-run blast. And that swing will give him confidence the rest of the way. Strike one. Two outs and one in scoring position. Let’s go. Next offering upstairs out to short. Crawford tosses to first. They limit the damage here. So, one run in the inning on this base hit. It’s now a 64 ball game. It’s Major League Baseball on the show and we’re back. Bottom of the sixth inning and now for Seattle. Jorge Palanco Palanco. Yeah, the first offering a fast ball for a strike. And that skips in the dirt. That one fouled off. Next pitch is downstairs. Woo! I thought he’d bite right there. Swing and a miss. Struck him out and now just two outs away. Stood absolutely no chance on that slider right there. And I don’t mean to laugh, but that’s a tough one. I mean, pretty much a perfect strikeout pitch. I mean, it looks like a fast ball middle in kind of has cutter action and it just bunches you up to whereas you can’t get your hands through and the barrel to it and not much you can do unless you recognize the spin early and you spit on it. The one hit on the ground to the right side and it stays fair. Makes the turn and heads for second. And that’s a twobagger. He was definitely late on that pitch, but he didn’t get beat. He got the bat on plane and just kept his hands tight to shoot it down the first baseline for the knock. Now, a huge at bat in this game coming up. And up next for Seattle, Dominic Canzone. And that drops in for a strike. One’s the counter on the outside corner for a strike. And it’s 0 and two. Well, he didn’t like those first two pitches. Now in an 02 hole. He’s going to have to battle. Hope he gets a mistake. And ball one. Got him looking for the strikeout. Now only one out remaining. Well, big strikeout right there and maybe a little controversial with the call. I think he got a little bit of favor on the mound. No question about it. It’s not exactly what you want to see in a big spot like that. And I’m sure there’s some chirping going on from the dugout making it clear that wasn’t his best call behind the plate today. So, it’s their last chance in this one. JP Crawford gets a chance to hit and there’s a strike. Good heater at 98. And that is downstairs. And now it’s even one and one. Breaking ball misses down and away with the tying run at the plate. Yeah, the home team trying to pull it out. That’s a little bit low. Big pitch coming right here. Last thing he wants to do is put the tying run on base, but he can’t group one either. Ball four. He walked in and that keeps things going. Pretty much the last thing you want from your bullpin arms are free passes, especially in spots like this. Make the team earn their way on. Now the left fielder, Randy Roserena, 0 for three in this one at 96. That pitch is in for a strike. There it was. A high velocity fastball in the zone. I think a little frustration from walking the previous hitter. He’s got good stuff. pitch inside the zone and trust it. And fouled off. One strike away now. He breaks his bat. They put the tag on him and that’ll do it. Ball game. Well, Summon from the bullpen had to come in, get a big out, and then had a little time to think about it before he went back out to get the final three outs of this ball game. Nonetheless, outstanding job to get the save and secure the win for his team. And this one ends with a final score of six to four. For Chris Singleton and our entire outstanding crew here at MLB The Show, I’m John Shami saying so long.
