For Justin Verlander, the 250th win of his major
league career batting bottom of the fourth inning leading the
nationals 4 to 1, the deep right field back
on his, sitting near the wall Francisco strikes again
. He home for the second straight game 5 to
1. New York Brooks rail will come on to
the save strike three and the ball game is over
, but the headline is Verlander with his status as
a Mets up in the air. He gets his
250th career victory on the final game before the trading
deadline. I mean, it's pretty special. You
know, I told you guys after the game,
um, you don't play the game for accomplishments.
You don't play it for flashy numbers. A lot
of blood, sweat and tears and sacrifice has gone
to getting here. Max was obviously supposed to be
an in part of this part of this team next
season, one of one of our starting pitchers.
So when you see that happen, you can't help
but think what's in store for next year. Obviously
, Max's pedigree is a hall of fame, future
Hall of Fame pitcher and the winner that he is
, is a perfect fit for what we need right
now. Had an opportunity to acquire another starting pitcher
and a veteran reliever that we think will both help
us. And Jordan Montgomery is having a tremendous year
and Chris Stratton is going to slide right into the
bullpen. I think that it's going to take a
little pressure off some of the young guys that we've
been depending on Sanchez leading it on and driving what
a deep left field that is back is gone.
Sanchez connects Gary Sanchez. Center field, Tavares going
back out of the track at the wall. Sanchez
hits his second Austin Riley continuing his hot stretch.
That ball is crushed and the plays just keep swinging
eight homers in the last 11 games. Now for
Austin Riley, right center field shot into the bullpen
, two home runs, five heart of the state
of the art and his third homer of the series
. The bases remain loaded with one out. Luke
Raley round ball down to first can't find a handle
beyond will score. The bases are going to be
loaded still and he shoots it toward the corner that's
going to be a fair ball, one hopping the
wall and the Rays cash in his lead by four
runs. Here in the sixth. There's a shot
high and deep to right is going to go.
Yeah, with runners in scoring position. This series
, they have been 4 to 34. They have
left 28 men on base. Hey over and the
Giants yet the hit with runners in scoring position to
win the game. Ellie Tayla Cruz will bat for
the second time today. Cruz that is taken to
right field, gone home run. It is four
to nothing. Right center field carrying well out to
the wall. James Votto who struck out his first
time deep right field. This is the third home
run of the day de La Cruz mclean and now
Votto have the Reds brought out the whipping sticks in
L A. There's Ryan Reynolds the fly ball to
right center field. Yeah. Take him out here
. Ryan Reynolds ties the game with his 12 clear
the deck cannonball coming. The birthday boy, Josh
Palacios will lead it off and Josh Palacios it on
first career hit in the air to center field.
Otani is tagging from third as VARSA makes the catch
the sac fly and an RB I for Hunter Renfrow
Garcia facing Retro here and he hits one well to
left. Thank God, Hunter Renfro with a two
run home run here in the 10th. He is
getting locked in driving in all three runs. He
pull round to the right for JP 31 pitch swing
on driven seat to right down the line looks like
it's gonna stay fair. It does run three nothing
Seattle here in the second inning. It comes to
12 to Gobin Carroll swing and a miss he,
him out of the end. There's the Castillo Flex
as he walks towards the Mariners first base dugout strikeout
number 71236 behind the Los Angeles Dodgers in the west
. Yeah. Don't shut Frazier. That ball is
smoked. Get down and go. Gunner Henderson to
second. Ruman being waved in starting the sprinkler system
again. Gunner Henderson an extra base hit so 1st
and 3rd for the Red Birds. Goldschmidt tapped back
to Hendricks his first time off. Broken bad.
That's gonna drop in for a hit. It goes
down to hero three nothing. ST Louis rounded to
third diving play Arenado from his knee. Big great
play by the golden glover Nolan Arenado and a strong
throw. Good stretch by Burleson Domes is out and
put a scar on that one. Holy mackerel home
run number 17 for Jose Ramirez, the 22 Ramirez
with the line drive to deep right down the line
. It goes and this ball is gone. Jose
Ramirez, the Hampton on first base. We need
coop to hit a ball in a gap somewhere.
Cooper out to left center field. This one's going
for it from head. It's Marlins win a strikeout
for Robertson his first save as a Marlin. And
oh, did m come up with that? What
a play by M to start a 543 double play
. That was an absolute bullet base hit the other
way here comes to the Rockies have a two nothing
lead on the M double goes deep. Nothing defensive
about that swing is Maya left it right in the
middle of the plate deep. It goes and that
is way out of here. No doubt. This
game is even 1 to 1 swing in a line
drive. Left field Castro is back and it's over
his head. So Nicky Lopez will score on Michael
Garcia's RB I double huge pitch Royals win for more
on these and other stories. Keep it locked at
