- 0:17Speaker 3: Okay, don't tell me what to do. Cannonball! Cramp! Oh,
- 0:22Speaker 3: I have a cramp. I can probably hit the green

- 0:39Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm pretty sober.
- 0:42Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm probably okay.
- 0:44Speaker 5: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
- 0:48Speaker 5: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
- 0:51Speaker 5: or a friend. Buzzed driving is drunk driving. A message
- 0:55Speaker 5: brought to you by NHTSA and the Ad Council.
- 0:57Speaker 2: One voice speaks when government turns its back on the truth.
- 1:01Speaker 1: Blinded, not caring what the American people think.
- 1:04Speaker 6: One voice speaks when leaders need to face the music.
- 1:09Speaker 3: The most insane spin I've ever heard. The economy's not improving.
- 1:12Speaker 3: Sean Hannity.
- 1:13Speaker 2: I think I'm doing the right thing being a voice
- 1:15Speaker 2: of reason.
- 1:16Speaker 3: The voice that's turning things around.

- 1:44Speaker 3: Hey, it's Ron Ferb.
- 1:45Speaker 6: I'm saying what everyone else won't after Guardians Baseball on
- 1:48Speaker 6: 570 WKVN.
- 1:58Speaker 3: And Guardians on the comeback trail now for the first
- 2:00Speaker 3: time today, trailing 5-4. Fifth inning, Chase Burns still out
- 2:05Speaker 3: there for the Reds, and he fires a fastball up
- 2:07Speaker 3: and away to Stephen Kwan for ball one. Burns at
- 2:15Speaker 3: 75 pitches. He has been economical the last two innings.
- 2:20Speaker 3: Here's the 1-0 on the outside corner for a strike.
- 2:24Speaker 7: 1-1.
- 2:24Speaker 3: And again, his... His pitch count a little more stringent
- 2:32Speaker 3: because of where he is innings-wise. The 1-1. Breaking ball
- 2:36Speaker 3: on the outside corner for a strike. And this is
- 2:40Speaker 3: first full Major League season. Had a rough first inning,
- 2:46Speaker 3: but he's been impressive since. Here's the 1-2. Waved at
- 2:52Speaker 3: and missed strike three. Ball dropped and picked up by Stephenson,
- 2:55Speaker 3: the catcher, and he throws on to first to complete
- 2:58Speaker 3: the strikeout. Four strikeouts for Burns. One away in the
- 3:04Speaker 3: top half of the fifth inning. Now through August the 6th,
- 3:08Speaker 3: you could win a Guardians Edition F-150 Raptor truck courtesy
- 3:12Speaker 3: of your Northeast Ohio Ford dealers. Visit guardiansf150sweeps. com to enter.
- 3:19Speaker 3: Here's the pitch to Jose Ramirez, and he lines it
- 3:21Speaker 3: down the right field side, and it's dropping for a
- 3:24Speaker 3: base hit. Cut off in the corner by Bledet, and
- 3:27Speaker 3: it'll hold Ramirez to a long single. Two line drives
- 3:34Speaker 3: to right for base hits for Jose Ramirez, who's starting
- 3:37Speaker 3: to look a little bit more like Jose now as
- 3:39Speaker 3: he gets further into his season here after the stint
- 3:43Speaker 3: on the injured list. Chase DeLauder will bat. 0 for 2.
- 3:50Speaker 3: Guardians down by a run. Here's the pitch to DeLauder.
- 3:59Speaker 3: On the move is Ramirez, and he'll steal the bag
- 4:02Speaker 3: without a throw. Number 25 for Jose Ramirez. So that
- 4:14Speaker 3: tying run now in scoring position with one out. Here's
- 4:23Speaker 3: the 1-0. He's taking off for third. The throwdown is
- 4:28Speaker 3: not in time. Safe at third base is Ramirez. He's
- 4:35Speaker 3: single-handedly trying to energize this ball club. This ball club
- 4:39Speaker 3: has been flat at times since the All-Star break. And
- 4:46Speaker 3: he knows right now this club needs something good to
- 4:50Speaker 3: happen after blowing a 4-0 lead Who else but Jose
- 4:54Speaker 3: Ramirez says, all right, follow me. So the infield in
- 4:59Speaker 3: now for the Reds. Here comes the pitch to DeLauder.
- 5:03Speaker 3: It's down low for a ball, and it counts now 2-1.
- 5:09Speaker 3: They've struggled with just moving runners along in certain spots,
- 5:12Speaker 3: so with one out, get that runner to third. He
- 5:16Speaker 3: does it by himself. And he's down there with less
- 5:19Speaker 3: than two down. Now we'll see if DeLauder can get
- 5:21Speaker 3: him in. This has really been a struggle point. Here's
- 5:24Speaker 3: the 2-1. Swung on, and it's driven to left. This
- 5:26Speaker 3: will do it. Getting back and making the catch is Friedel. Tagging,
- 5:30Speaker 3: heading for home is Ramirez. He scores, and we are
- 5:34Speaker 3: tied at five. How about that? That's part of what
- 5:42Speaker 3: the offense has been missing, that style of play from Ramirez.
- 5:47Speaker 3: And De Lauder with RBI number 51 got the job
- 5:50Speaker 3: done on the sack fly. Here's Travis Bazzana. A couple
- 5:56Speaker 3: of walks today and two trips. Here's the pitch from Burns.
- 6:03Speaker 3: Upstairs for a ball and a check swing for Bazzana.
- 6:14Speaker 3: All Cleveland needs... 15 more Jose Ramirez's and they'll be
- 6:19Speaker 3: right where they want to be. Scouts on the case
- 6:22Speaker 3: in the Dominican Republic. Here's the 1-0. Swung on, bounced
- 6:27Speaker 3: foul outside of first. I put my arm around him
- 6:31Speaker 3: last night. I wanted to ask him something real quietly
- 6:34Speaker 3: in the clubhouse. And you put your arm around him.
- 6:40Speaker 3: It is like putting your arm on a steel beam.
- 6:48Speaker 3: He is so strong across his back muscles. Here's the 1-1.
- 6:55Speaker 3: In the dirt.
- 6:56Speaker 8: 2-1.
- 6:58Speaker 3: You look at him and you go, you know, he's
- 7:00Speaker 3: not very big, obviously. We know all of that. But
- 7:04Speaker 3: his strength is way beyond what most people can envision.
- 7:11Speaker 3: The 2-1. Swing and a miss.
- 7:13Speaker 9: 2-2.
- 7:13Speaker 3: Probably... Helps you understand how he's able to do what
- 7:20Speaker 3: he has done throughout his career at that size. Here's
- 7:25Speaker 3: the 2-2. Swung on a bouncer up the middle right
- 7:29Speaker 3: behind the second base back, though, is De La Cruz.
- 7:31Speaker 3: Fields throws on the first for the out. Side retired,
- 7:35Speaker 3: but the Guardians tie it thanks to Jose Ramirez and
- 7:38Speaker 3: Chase De Lauder. We head to the bottom of the fifth.
- 7:40Speaker 3: Tied at five in Cincinnati.
- 7:44Speaker 10: Recently, our company softball team lost the big game by
- 7:47Speaker 10: one run. Then Dale tried to console us with the quote,
- 7:50Speaker 10: winning isn't everything. Dale's a loser. I play to win,
- 7:54Speaker 10: like early payoff from Bet365. If my team goes up big,
- 7:58Speaker 10: I get paid out instantly, even if they blow the
- 8:00Speaker 10: lead later.
- 8:02Speaker 11: Sound familiar, Dale?
- 8:03Speaker 3: Bet365.

- 9:32Speaker 6: the Valley after Guardians Baseball on 570 WKBN.
- 9:35Speaker 3: New pitcher on for the Guardians. It's the right-hander, Franco Aliman.
- 9:49Speaker 3: Third pitcher today for Cleveland as we open play in
- 9:52Speaker 3: the bottom of the fifth inning. Tie game at five. A.U.
- 9:55Speaker 3: Hainio Suarez, the batter. Aliman delivers. and a miss. Strike one.
- 10:01Speaker 3: Haleman with that mid to upper 90s fastball. Good slider.
- 10:07Speaker 3: Young man began his year in the minor leagues. Made
- 10:09Speaker 3: his major league debut fairly early on and then was
- 10:13Speaker 3: sent back and now has returned and filled a useful
- 10:17Speaker 3: role in that bullpen. Here's the 0-1. Fastball on the
- 10:22Speaker 3: outside corner for a strike, and quickly it's 0-2. Alamon
- 10:27Speaker 3: has that delivery where he's working from the stretch at
- 10:30Speaker 3: all times, but he'll turn his back to the hitter
- 10:34Speaker 3: as he begins his motion. Here's the 0-2. Swing and
- 10:40Speaker 3: a miss. He strikes him out on three straight. And
- 10:43Speaker 3: he's got a, for those older fans out there, a
- 10:47Speaker 3: little of the Louis Tion spin and Sometimes a little
- 10:51Speaker 3: hesitation before he lets it go. And it explodes out
- 10:55Speaker 3: of his hand. That fastball again. Mid to upper 90s consistent.
- 11:02Speaker 3: Now Nathaniel Lowe doubled his last time up. He's one
- 11:05Speaker 3: for two and he takes a pitch low and in
- 11:07Speaker 3: for a ball. It's a fee-free homestand when the Guardians

- 11:38Speaker 3: Outside and high.
- 11:39Speaker 14: 2-1.
- 11:47Speaker 3: Guardians and Reds tied at 5. Fifth inning on a sunny,
- 11:52Speaker 3: hot summer afternoon. The pitch swung on. Foul back. Two
- 11:57Speaker 3: and two the count now on low. Not a whole
- 12:01Speaker 3: lot of folks here. This was the make-up game from
- 12:03Speaker 3: last night's rain out. Probably have a good crowd tonight.
- 12:06Speaker 3: As there are a lot of Cleveland fans down here.
- 12:12Speaker 3: Not as many as you'd see if these games were
- 12:15Speaker 3: on a weekend, but still a good amount. Still summer
- 12:18Speaker 3: vacation time. Here comes the 2-2 pitch. Swing and a miss.
- 12:25Speaker 3: Strike three. Good fastball from Franco Aleman. He has struck
- 12:30Speaker 3: out the first two batters he's faced. Two up, two down.
- 12:36Speaker 3: The starter, Slade Ciccone, went three and two-thirds. He allowed
- 12:40Speaker 3: four runs on seven hits. Walked one, struck out two.
- 12:44Speaker 3: And Tim Herron, a third of an inning, he allowed
- 12:46Speaker 3: two hits and a run. Now Aleman facing Tyler Stevenson.
- 12:51Speaker 3: He's two for two with an RBI double his last
- 12:54Speaker 3: time up. The pitch to him is down low for
- 12:57Speaker 3: a ball. Dollar Bank is a proud banking partner of
- 13:00Speaker 3: the Guardians. They have 28 locations across northeast Ohio, and
- 13:04Speaker 3: they're ready to provide solutions to help get you there.
- 13:09Speaker 3: Here's the 1-0, and that's in there for a strike.
- 13:12Speaker 3: 1-1 the count. Alamans come on here in the fifth,
- 13:16Speaker 3: pounding the strike zone. Here comes his 1-1 pitch. On
- 13:27Speaker 3: the inside corner for a strike. 1-2 the count. Stevenson,
- 13:32Speaker 3: I think he thought about challenging but then thought better
- 13:37Speaker 3: of it. The Reds still have both of their challenges remaining.
- 13:40Speaker 3: 1-2 the count. Aleman ready and delivers. Swung on, foul
- 13:52Speaker 3: tip back to the screen. And Bridge Gas, Ohio would
- 13:55Speaker 3: like to remind you, whether you're an individual or a contractor,
- 13:58Speaker 3: state law requires that you call 8-1-1 before you dig
- 14:02Speaker 3: to have those underground utilities marked. Now the 1-2 pitch.
- 14:14Speaker 3: Swing and a missed strike three. Palamon strikes out the
- 14:18Speaker 3: side and will head to the sixth. Tied at five
- 14:21Speaker 3: in Cincinnati.

- 15:18Speaker 10: A message from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and
- 15:21Speaker 10: the Ad Council.
- 15:21Speaker 11: Some people won't give you the real talk on drugs,
- 15:24Speaker 11: but it's time we know the facts. Fentanyl is killing people.
- 15:28Speaker 11: It's a powerful opioid, often made illegally and commonly mixed
- 15:31Speaker 11: with illicit drugs. It can even be pressed into counterfeit
- 15:34Speaker 11: pills that resemble prescription medications. Just two milligrams, about the
- 15:38Speaker 11: size of a few grains of sand, could potentially be lethal.
- 15:41Speaker 11: This isn't an ad to scare you, but it is
- 15:43Speaker 11: an ad to make you think twice. Get the facts.
- 15:46Speaker 11: Go to realdealonfentanyl.com. This message is brought to you by
- 15:50Speaker 11: the Ad Council.
- 15:51Speaker 3: When leaders need to face the music. The most insane
- 15:55Speaker 3: spin I've ever heard. The economy's not improving. Sean Hannity.
- 15:58Speaker 3: I think I'm doing the right thing being a voice
- 16:00Speaker 3: of reason.
- 16:01Speaker 1: The voice that's turning things around.
- 16:03Speaker 3: Weeknights at 7 on 570 WKVN.
- 16:08Speaker 6: It's Ron Ferb, and I've got opinions you'll want to hear.
- 16:11Speaker 6: After Guardians Baseball on 570 WKBN.
- 16:24Speaker 3: Well, crazy day. When you think of a day-night doubleheader,
- 16:28Speaker 3: you know darn well we're not going to have normalcy.
- 16:32Speaker 3: Cleveland took a 4-0 lead in the first inning, and
- 16:35Speaker 3: a Kyle Manzardo grand slam to right Cincinnati eventually took
- 16:41Speaker 3: a 5-4 lead. Now we're tied at 5-6th inning. Left-hander
- 16:47Speaker 3: Brian Burke delivers to Brian Rocchio. I think I said
- 16:51Speaker 3: Brian Burke. It's Brock Burke. And it is a called strike.
- 16:56Speaker 3: Rocchio batting right-handed for the first time. The lefties pitch
- 17:02Speaker 3: outside a ball one-on-one. Hi again, everybody. Tom Hamilton back
- 17:07Speaker 3: with you, along with Jim Rosenhaus. Dave Abbott sleeping with
- 17:11Speaker 3: us here in the booth. Brian Motze at the command center.
- 17:16Speaker 3: Now the 1-1, waved at. 1-2 the count. Now we
- 17:21Speaker 3: love Dave. Does a great job. He's one of the
- 17:25Speaker 3: great engineers in this country. Does a lot of work
- 17:27Speaker 3: for ESPN, the Bengals, you name it.
- 17:31Speaker 16: The 1-2.
- 17:32Speaker 3: Down low, 2-2. Chase Burns, first time Cleveland saw him,
- 17:38Speaker 3: and you've got to give the kid credit, gave up
- 17:40Speaker 3: the grand slam in the first, but he only gave
- 17:43Speaker 3: up one run the rest of the way. Now the left-hander, Burke.
- 17:49Speaker 3: The pitch, and Rocchio drives one up the alley in
- 17:52Speaker 3: right center. It's a base hit. Cut off in the
- 17:54Speaker 3: gap by Bledet, and the right fielder holds Rocchio to
- 17:58Speaker 3: a long single the other way to right center. So
- 18:02Speaker 3: first off, let's give you what Chase Burns did. Five innings,
- 18:06Speaker 3: 89 pitches. He gave up five runs. Four were unearned.
- 18:14Speaker 3: He allowed five hits in the game. He struck out four.
- 18:19Speaker 3: He walked two. Now the left-hander facing Kyle Manzardo, and
- 18:26Speaker 3: he taps a double play ball to second. Arroyo to second, one,
- 18:30Speaker 3: De La Cruz throws it over, double play, 4-6-3. So
- 18:41Speaker 3: Kyle Manzardo, a grand slam to right in the first,
- 18:44Speaker 3: Cleveland's other run, came when Jose Ramirez manufactured the game-tying
- 18:49Speaker 3: run in the fifth. He's singled, stole second, stole third,
- 18:53Speaker 3: scored on a chase to Laudersack Fly. Here's Angel Martinez,
- 18:57Speaker 3: 0 for his last 15. He'll bat right-handed. He'll take
- 19:02Speaker 3: inside a ball. Meanwhile, the Reds got to Slade Ciccone
- 19:07Speaker 3: for four runs in the three and two-thirds he worked.
- 19:10Speaker 3: And the other run off Tim Herron. Now the 1-0 pitch.
- 19:17Speaker 3: And it's banged on the ground to first, handled by Stewart.
- 19:21Speaker 3: And Cleveland retired in the sixth as it's an unassisted
- 19:26Speaker 3: play at first by Sal Stewart. And the game stays
- 19:29Speaker 3: tied at five in the middle of the sixth. Hey,
- 19:34Speaker 3: sports fans.

- 21:09Speaker 1: That's convenient.
- 21:10Speaker 11: Exactly.
- 21:11Speaker 18: Get IKEA whenever, wherever, however at IKEA.us.
- 21:14Speaker 1: IKEA, dream the possibilities.
- 21:17Speaker 3: Hey, it's Ron Furb.
- 21:18Speaker 6: I'm not holding back, ever, after Guardians Baseball on 570 WKBN.
- 21:27Speaker 3: Well, Franco Aleman's going to get a second inning. Struck
- 21:31Speaker 3: out the side in the fifth. The native of Cuba
- 21:34Speaker 3: takes on the bottom third of the Reds' order.
- 21:36Speaker 18: 5-5.
- 21:37Speaker 3: We're in the fifth. Aleman pumps one in there, a strike.
- 21:42Speaker 3: We've told you the story before, but you never know.
- 21:45Speaker 3: Somebody might be listening for the first time. Alamon, back
- 21:52Speaker 3: partially turned toward the hitter. He delivers, and it's in there.
- 21:57Speaker 3: But his dad was a dentist when they were living
- 22:01Speaker 3: in Cuba. And Cuba had a deal with Venezuela in
- 22:07Speaker 3: that they would trade doctors to Venezuela for oil from
- 22:12Speaker 3: the Venezuelans. Here's the set. Here's the 0-2. A swing
- 22:20Speaker 3: and a foul. They get a piece of the home
- 22:22Speaker 3: plate up, Alfonso Marquez. The deal for Franco's dad, the dentist,
- 22:28Speaker 3: was that if he went to Venezuela for three to
- 22:31Speaker 3: four years, then he would be allowed to legally defect
- 22:34Speaker 3: to the United States. Cuba would not stand in his way.
- 22:39Speaker 3: Now the 0-2 pitch. Up and in, and he got
- 22:42Speaker 3: him to swing and miss. Four strikeouts for Alamont. So
- 22:46Speaker 3: Franco's dad went to Venezuela for three to four years
- 22:52Speaker 3: and then was able to get to Tampa. And then
- 22:55Speaker 3: the rest of the family joined him. Franco was 11
- 23:01Speaker 3: when he was able to get out of Cuba and
- 23:05Speaker 3: move to Tampa. Here's Edwin Arroyo, one for two, an
- 23:09Speaker 3: RBI single. He'll bat left-handed. He cuts and foul tips it,
- 23:13Speaker 3: strike one. Franco said, obviously coming out of Cuba, he
- 23:19Speaker 3: spoke Spanish. But he said, I learned English by watching
- 23:25Speaker 3: the Disney Channel and by watching cartoons. And he has
- 23:30Speaker 3: great command of the English language now. The pitch, and
- 23:34Speaker 3: it was inside and challenged by Patrick Bailey. Bailey didn't
- 23:39Speaker 3: catch the ball. Went to the backstop. That's why he
- 23:42Speaker 3: didn't get the ball. Strike call, but it looked like
- 23:44Speaker 3: a strike. Let's see on the replay. Challenge. It's a strike.
- 23:52Speaker 3: Wasn't even borderline. But when you don't catch the pitch,
- 23:55Speaker 3: kind of hard to get the call from the ump.
- 23:58Speaker 3: So the call is overturned. And the count 0-2 on Arroyo.
- 24:01Speaker 3: 5-5 game. Reds batting. Bottom of the sixth. One out,
- 24:05Speaker 3: nobody on. Alamon's ready. Here it comes. Arroyo. It takes
- 24:13Speaker 3: a high heater, one and two. Slade Ciccone's rough month
- 24:20Speaker 3: of July continued today, giving up four runs and three
- 24:24Speaker 3: and two-thirds. The pitch hit on a line but fouled
- 24:28Speaker 3: outside of first. Boy, Slade Ciccone's had an ERA this
- 24:33Speaker 3: month of about eight. And that came off a spectacular
- 24:39Speaker 3: month of June. In which Slade Ciccone's earned run average
- 24:43Speaker 3: in June was 188. Now the pitch. And it's strike
- 24:49Speaker 3: three called on the inside corner. Challenged by Edwin Arroyo.
- 24:57Speaker 3: He was kind of timid with his tap of the helmet.
- 24:59Speaker 3: Let's see. It's strike three called. That's a tough at bat.
- 25:08Speaker 3: Two challenges in the at-bat, and you're on the losing
- 25:10Speaker 3: end both times. So Alamon has struck out all five
- 25:15Speaker 3: he has faced. He has that kind of stuff. Upper
- 25:20Speaker 3: 90s fastball slider. Two down, nobody on. 5-5, sixth inning.
- 25:25Speaker 3: Here's T.J. Friedel, 0-2. Alamon, the big 6'7 right-hander, lets
- 25:31Speaker 3: it fly, and he painted the outside corner with a slider.
- 25:34Speaker 3: Strike one. In on the grass, the third, Jose Ramirez,
- 25:41Speaker 3: because Friedel runs well. Friedel now 0-4-13. Alleman's pitch, and
- 25:49Speaker 3: it's hit in the air, but not deep to left.
- 25:52Speaker 3: Rocchio out. Kwon in. Kwon, the left fielder, makes the catch.
- 25:56Speaker 3: Boy Franco Alamon has saved game one for Cleveland. At
- 26:01Speaker 3: least he has put the Reds at bay for a
- 26:04Speaker 3: couple of innings. 5-5 heading to the seventh on the
- 26:08Speaker 3: Cleveland Clinic Radio Network.
- 26:11Speaker 14: Sarcoma. Odds are you've never heard that word before. But
- 26:14Speaker 14: for the 40 people diagnosed with sarcoma every day, it
- 26:17Speaker 14: is a life-changing word. Life-changing and devastating because... Sarcoma is cancer.
- 26:24Speaker 14: Sarcoma is a cancer of bone and soft tissue more
- 26:26Speaker 14: prevalent in children than in adults. More than 6,000 people
- 26:30Speaker 14: lose their lives to sarcoma each year. Treatment options for
- 26:33Speaker 14: sarcoma are limited and new therapies are desperately needed. More
- 26:37Speaker 14: research and increased awareness is necessary to find a cure
- 26:41Speaker 14: for a cancer that you probably didn't even know existed
- 26:43Speaker 14: until now. Through awareness, advocacy, and research, The Sarcoma Foundation
- 26:49Speaker 14: of America is determined to help those affected by this
- 26:51Speaker 14: forgotten cancer, to bring hope to the children and adults
- 26:55Speaker 14: whose lives are forever changed by a word they had
- 26:57Speaker 14: never heard before. Please help us in the fight to
- 27:00Speaker 14: find the cure for sarcoma. For more information on sarcoma
- 27:04Speaker 14: and the work of the Sarcoma Foundation of America, please

- 27:10Speaker 2: Hey, let me ask you something. Would you seat your
- 27:13Speaker 2: three-year-old child on a windowsill? Would you seat them beside
- 27:16Speaker 2: a lit fireplace or by the deep end of a pool?
- 27:19Speaker 2: One last question. Would you seat your child in a
- 27:22Speaker 2: car seat that's not correct for them? Car crashes are
- 27:26Speaker 2: a leading killer of children ages 1 to 13. Secure
- 27:29Speaker 2: their future. Seat them in the correct car seat. For
- 27:32Speaker 2: more information, visit safercar.gov slash the right seat. A message

- 28:19Speaker 3: Patrick Bailey batting left-handed 0-2. And the pitch, it's in there,
- 28:24Speaker 3: it's a called strike. As he started him off with
- 28:27Speaker 3: the curveball, boy, he throws a mid-90s fastball. However, the
- 28:34Speaker 3: set and the 0-1 pitch Swung on, banged on one
- 28:40Speaker 3: hop to second. Sharp lay hit, but Arroyo feels it,
- 28:44Speaker 3: throws him out. That was another curveball. 70% of his
- 28:49Speaker 3: pitches are curveballs. Pierce Johnson, 6'2, 200 pounds. Now, 35
- 28:56Speaker 3: years of age. Ninth year in the big leagues. He
- 29:01Speaker 3: has pitched in Japan. He's pitched with the Cubs, Giants, Padres, Rockies, Braves.

- 29:18Speaker 3: six hits, no errors, two left. Reds, five runs, nine hits,
- 29:23Speaker 3: one error, four men stranded. Friends and family, that's all

- 34:59Speaker 6: he went two perfect innings in relief and struck out five.
- 35:05Speaker 6: Right-hander Colin Holderman facing the top of the order. Bottom
- 35:09Speaker 6: of the seventh, 5-5 game. Upper 90, sinker slider, backdoor
- 35:15Speaker 6: slider for strike one. Holderman, one of the top set-up
- 35:19Speaker 6: men in the American League. Five wins, a save, a
- 35:24Speaker 6: 180 ERA, 41st appearance. Another called strike. On the breaking ball.
- 35:31Speaker 6: And now that is being challenged by De La Cruz.
- 35:38Speaker 6: And De La Cruz was correct. Ball overturned. Each team
- 35:43Speaker 6: with a challenge remaining. And the count now one and one.
- 35:51Speaker 6: De La Cruz today. A couple of base hits. Run scored.
- 35:55Speaker 6: The set and pitch. Another slider and a beauty. And
- 35:59Speaker 6: the count now, one and two. Now the pitch in
- 36:14Speaker 6: the dirt. I'm still not sure.
- 36:17Speaker 3: Why we're doing a day-night doubleheader. They announced today's attendance.
- 36:23Speaker 3: This is announced.
- 36:24Speaker 16: 16,866.
- 36:28Speaker 3: We may have a couple of thousand in the ballpark.
- 36:31Speaker 7: Maybe.
- 36:33Speaker 3: Now the 2-2. Fouled it back. I think a lot
- 36:38Speaker 3: of people were surprised when they said last night, day-night doubleheader.
- 36:41Speaker 3: It's like, really? Normally the day-night doubleheaders are because you
- 36:47Speaker 3: have big crowds expected for the games. Not normally when
- 36:54Speaker 3: you have a Paid attendance of 16,000. Do you do
- 36:57Speaker 3: a day-night doubleheader? Oh, wow. The pitch. Tapper hit foul
- 37:03Speaker 3: first base side. De La Cruz still with a 2-2 count.
- 37:12Speaker 3: It's turned into a mostly sunny day now. 86 degrees,
- 37:18Speaker 3: breeze blowing out. The pitch. And he got him swinging.
- 37:24Speaker 3: Came back with a slider. Holderman strikes out De La Cruz.
- 37:28Speaker 3: That'll start the seventh. Here's Sal Stewart. Solo homer. Two
- 37:32Speaker 3: runs single and a walk. Sal Stewart. Cuts and misses.
- 37:55Speaker 3: Strike one. He had one thing on his mind. Trying
- 37:59Speaker 3: to hit one to the upper deck and left. Very
- 38:02Speaker 3: cozy ballpark. Now the 0-1 delivery. And it's fouled upstairs. 0-2.
- 38:14Speaker 3: A little bit south of us right here on the
- 38:16Speaker 3: Ohio River is the Bengals. Not only do the Bengals
- 38:20Speaker 3: have their stadiums, On the banks of the Ohio River.
- 38:24Speaker 3: But their practice facility is right next to it. Browns,
- 38:29Speaker 3: of course, have the stadium downtown practice facility in Berea.
- 38:34Speaker 3: But the Bengals practice facility right next door to the
- 38:40Speaker 3: stadium here in downtown Cincinnati. Now the 0-2. Up and in.
- 38:46Speaker 3: And that went all the way to the backstop. 98
- 38:49Speaker 3: miles an hour. And they count a 1 and 2. Well,
- 39:00Speaker 3: the Guardians and Diamondbacks Saturday night. It's the Kate Smith
- 39:05Speaker 3: bobblehead giveaway plus fireworks. Tickets at CLEGuardians.com. Now the 1-2.
- 39:18Speaker 3: Slider in the dirt to the backstop. Ball two, strike two. Boy,
- 39:26Speaker 3: where would Cleveland's bullpen be without the addition of Colin
- 39:29Speaker 3: Holderman this year? The 2-2. Checked on a slider away,
- 39:40Speaker 3: didn't go. Full count. Pretty much every playoff team or
- 39:46Speaker 3: playoff contender is looking to add bullpen arms to Before
- 39:51Speaker 3: the deadline. Next Monday night at 6 o'clock. The payoff pitch.
- 40:01Speaker 3: And it's swung and grounded in the hole. Diving back
- 40:04Speaker 3: in to grab by Rocchio. Pops up. Throws to first.
- 40:07Speaker 3: On the bounce. Dug out by Manzardo. Holy cow. What
- 40:11Speaker 3: a play by Rocchio in the hole. And a nice
- 40:15Speaker 3: pick at first by Manzardo. Tremendous play by Rocchio. And
- 40:23Speaker 3: Cleveland doesn't have to wonder who their shortstop is when
- 40:27Speaker 3: you think about the coming years. Wow, has he been good.
- 40:31Speaker 3: Here's J.J. Bladet 0 for 3. Thing is, Cleveland's got
- 40:36Speaker 3: another heck of a shortstop in Columbus and Angel Hanao.
- 40:39Speaker 3: That pitch outside a ball. Bladet 0 for 3. Now
- 40:50Speaker 3: the set. Now the pitch. And it's hit a ton
- 40:53Speaker 3: to center. Back goes Helpen. On the track. Near the wall. Jumps.
- 40:57Speaker 3: Makes the catch. Little half jump by Petey Helpen. We
- 41:02Speaker 3: go to the eighth. Deadlocked at five on the Cleveland

- 41:30Speaker 3: don't want to hit a gas pipe because... That's your life.
- 41:32Speaker 3: The other part of it is if you hit certain things,
- 41:35Speaker 3: you're liable for it.
- 41:36Speaker 20: I mean, we kind of know what's out here, but
- 41:38Speaker 20: all at the same time, you just always call.

- 43:47Speaker 3: This year, Maul in 48 games. A win, a save,
- 43:51Speaker 3: 432 ERA. Now to the University of Memphis. The 1-1.
- 44:04Speaker 3: And it's tapped foul at the plate. A 1-2 count.
- 44:10Speaker 3: Hunter Gattis heating up in the Cleveland pen. Maul takes
- 44:32Speaker 3: a little extra time, climbs back up on the hill.
- 44:35Speaker 3: Now the 1-2 to Ramirez. And he fouled it at
- 44:42Speaker 3: the plate. Well, it's rumor mill time with the deadline
- 44:47Speaker 3: next Monday. Word is now Tampa Bay has interest in
- 44:51Speaker 3: Zach Netto. I think everybody that needs a shortstop has
- 44:55Speaker 3: interest in the angel Zach Netto because he had them
- 44:58Speaker 3: for three more years, but boy. The Angels are going
- 45:02Speaker 3: to ask for a boatload if they trade Nettle. Now
- 45:07Speaker 3: the 1-2. And it's hit on the ground to third.
- 45:12Speaker 3: Charged by Suarez. Gloves. Throws. And not in time. But
- 45:17Speaker 3: he's called out. Beg your pardon. Boy, I thought he
- 45:21Speaker 3: had beaten it. Cleveland checking to see if they want
- 45:24Speaker 3: to challenge.
- 45:26Speaker 9: Nope.
- 45:27Speaker 3: Bang, bang, play. But Ramirez out by an eyelash. Here's
- 45:31Speaker 3: Chase DeLauder, 0 for 2 with a sack fly that
- 45:35Speaker 3: tied the game. The Detroit Tigers today designated catcher Jake Rogers.
- 45:41Speaker 3: He'd been the backup catcher to Dylan Dingler. He was
- 45:48Speaker 3: the last piece they had from Houston when they traded
- 45:51Speaker 3: Justin Verlander in his heyday to the Astros. Left on left,
- 45:59Speaker 3: Maul's pitch to DeLauder. And a lot are much better
- 46:02Speaker 3: against lefty pitching. Cuts and misses. Strike one. As good
- 46:10Speaker 3: as Tampa Bay is. Oh man. If they get at
- 46:14Speaker 3: a guy like Zach Nettel. The 0-1 pitch. Down low.
- 46:23Speaker 3: One and one. Nettel brings you home run power. Good shortstop.
- 46:28Speaker 3: And controllable and Tampa has one of the best farm
- 46:32Speaker 3: systems in the game. Well, that would give them another
- 46:36Speaker 3: weapon in that lineup. The 1-1 pitch. Outside and low, 2-1.
- 46:44Speaker 3: Every baseball guy you talk to now says the big
- 46:49Speaker 3: decision is still the one that's going to eventually be
- 46:53Speaker 3: made in Detroit. Do they trade Tarek Skubal or not?
- 46:58Speaker 3: The 2-1 pitch. And it's fouled off right side 2-2. Tigers,
- 47:07Speaker 3: they've lost three in a row. They're 7 under.
- 47:11Speaker 4: 500.
- 47:11Speaker 3: Of course, they're still in it. But they trade Scooble.
- 47:18Speaker 3: There are a lot of baseball executives in the American
- 47:21Speaker 3: League that hope the Tigers keep Scooble and simply get
- 47:25Speaker 3: a draft pick when he walks away at the end
- 47:27Speaker 3: of the year. Now the 2-2 pitch. Inside and low,
- 47:34Speaker 3: full count. Because even though Scoble is a free agent
- 47:38Speaker 3: at the end of the year, he's the guy that
- 47:41Speaker 3: puts you over the top if you're a team like
- 47:43Speaker 3: maybe Tampa, Milwaukee, Atlanta. You add him, oh boy. Now
- 47:49Speaker 3: the payoff pitch. And it's swung on, drilled to center.
- 47:55Speaker 3: Another base hit off a left-hander for Chase DeLauder. But
- 48:00Speaker 3: for the Tigers... If they trade Scooble and they can
- 48:04Speaker 3: say whatever they want, that we're still in it, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
- 48:10Speaker 3: you're not the same team that you were when you
- 48:13Speaker 3: traded Scooble. But if they did trade Scooble, you couldn't
- 48:18Speaker 3: hardly blame them because of what they could get in
- 48:21Speaker 3: return for the coming years. Here's Travis Bozzano. Ground out
- 48:26Speaker 3: two walks. One out, one on. 5-5, eighth inning. The pitch...
- 48:31Speaker 3: And it's a strike on the outside corner. And Casey
- 48:34Speaker 3: Mize is another Tigers starting pitcher who will be a
- 48:38Speaker 3: free agent at the end of this season. Now the 0-1.
- 48:50Speaker 3: Breaking ball strike, 0-2 on Bozanum. He's hitting cleanup today.
- 49:07Speaker 3: The set. The two-strength pitch. And he tapped it foul
- 49:12Speaker 3: at the plate. Will do it again at 0-2. 5-5
- 49:16Speaker 3: in the eighth. Runner on, one out. Check out the all-new...
- 49:20Speaker 3: redesigned hybrid Toyota RAV4. It's America's best-selling SUV. For all
- 49:26Speaker 3: Toyota offers, go to toyota.com. DeLauder, modest lead at first.
- 49:45Speaker 3: The left-hander, Sam Maul, is ready. He deals. And Bozana
- 49:53Speaker 3: spoiled a breaking ball, fouling it back. Will do it
- 49:56Speaker 3: again at 0-2. Outfield straight up, not all that deep.
- 50:16Speaker 3: Now the two-strike pitch. Outside, one and two. Cleveland trying
- 50:30Speaker 3: to snap its longest losing streak of the year. They've
- 50:34Speaker 3: dropped five in a row. They're only a game above. 500,
- 50:38Speaker 3: and yet only two games out of first. This is
- 50:43Speaker 3: a big game here, game one. Now the one-two. And again,
- 50:51Speaker 3: fouled back. Good at-bat by Travis Buzana, who has struggled
- 50:55Speaker 3: against left-handed pitching. Ball is ready. Here it comes. And
- 51:15Speaker 3: it's drilled to right field. A base hit by Bozana.
- 51:19Speaker 3: De Lauder motoring around second on his way to third.
- 51:23Speaker 3: That's as good and as bad as Travis Bozana's had
- 51:26Speaker 3: in quite some time. A seven-pitch at bat against a
- 51:30Speaker 3: tough left-hander. He spoiled a lot of two-strike breaking balls
- 51:36Speaker 3: and then smoked a single to right. And Cleveland in
- 51:40Speaker 3: a 5-5 game in the eighth. Runners at the corners.
- 51:44Speaker 3: One down. And Brian Rocchio, one for three with a single.
- 51:48Speaker 3: He'll step in and bat right-handed. The set and pitch.
- 51:56Speaker 3: And he showed safety squeeze. Bunt took a strike and
- 51:59Speaker 3: he challenges the call. Oh, boy. Video board says. Cleveland's
- 52:11Speaker 3: out of challenges. Strike upheld. Not sure how you challenge
- 52:16Speaker 3: a pitch when you're squaring the bunt. Pull the bat back.
- 52:21Speaker 7: But..
- 52:24Speaker 3: Hasta la vida, baby, when it comes to challenges. The
- 52:28Speaker 3: 0-1 now to Rocchio. Infield partway in. He bumps back
- 52:31Speaker 3: towards the mound. Coming home with a go-ahead run to Lauder.
- 52:35Speaker 3: The throw goes to first to get Rocchio. Bazana to second.
- 52:39Speaker 3: And another perfectly executed safety squeeze by Brian Rocchio between
- 52:46Speaker 3: the mound and first. And he bunted it in a
- 52:50Speaker 3: perfect spot that enabled De Lauder to score with ease.
- 52:56Speaker 3: The pitcher, Maul, wisely got the out at first and
- 53:01Speaker 3: give Brian Rocchio RBI number 50. And Cleveland's back on
- 53:06Speaker 3: top for the third time today, 6-5 Cleveland. Here's Kyle Manzardo,
- 53:11Speaker 3: pitch outside, ball one. Well, nobody loves the safety squeeze
- 53:17Speaker 3: bunt more than Stephen Vogt, and that time it was
- 53:21Speaker 3: a beauty. And gives Cleveland A 6-5 lead. Cleveland led
- 53:29Speaker 3: 4-0 in the first on the Kyle Manzardo grand slam
- 53:32Speaker 3: to right. Now the pitch. And a check swing foul.
- 53:38Speaker 3: 6-5 Guardians, eighth inning. Game one of a day-night doubleheader,
- 53:45Speaker 3: the night cap, with Gavin Williams on the hill at 7-10.
- 54:04Speaker 3: Two down. Bozzano, not that big a lead. Edges off
- 54:08Speaker 3: a little more. Now the pitch. And Manzardo takes outside.
- 54:16Speaker 3: Two balls and a strike. Cleveland have been shut out
- 54:25Speaker 3: back-to-back games this weekend in St.
- 54:27Speaker 16: Pete.
- 54:28Speaker 3: Six runs today. The pitch. Down and in. Ball has
- 54:33Speaker 3: thrown a lot of breaking balls and not a lot
- 54:36Speaker 3: of strikes. So, another hitter's count for Manzardo. Three and one. Again,
- 54:49Speaker 3: the outfielder's not all that deep. The pitch. Checked on
- 54:58Speaker 3: a pitch low. Ball fourth. Ball has walked another. That'll
- 55:03Speaker 3: bring up Angel Martinez. So we'll have a meeting. As
- 55:13Speaker 3: Cleveland has runners at first and second with two down.
- 55:20Speaker 3: Angel Martinez will bat right-handed. Six to five, Cleveland's regained
- 55:26Speaker 3: the lead here in the eighth inning, and Angel Martinez...
- 55:31Speaker 3: trying to spread it a little more. Hunter Gaddis is
- 55:34Speaker 3: going to work the bottom of the eighth. All right, Tom,
- 55:39Speaker 3: you mentioned it earlier about the real weakness for the
- 55:42Speaker 3: Reds has been their bullpen. Terry Francona has had a
- 55:45Speaker 3: hard time getting consistency there, and this is where the
- 55:47Speaker 3: Guardians have to take advantage in close games. Anil Martinez
- 55:55Speaker 3: trying to break an 0-for-16 skid. Ball. Checks, delivers, way outside.
- 56:05Speaker 3: There's no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Cleveland's bullpen,
- 56:10Speaker 3: one of the best in the game. The Reds, one
- 56:11Speaker 3: of the worst. Tito was saying yesterday in his office,
- 56:15Speaker 3: just too many injuries early have really sabotaged this bullpen.
- 56:19Speaker 3: The pitch, and it's hit in the air. Not deep.
- 56:23Speaker 3: Left center, dropping quickly. Diving catch by Friedel, the left fielder.
- 56:29Speaker 3: That looked like it was going to find grass. Heck
- 56:31Speaker 3: of a play by Friedel. So Cleveland's taking the lead
- 56:35Speaker 3: back on a safety squeeze button. 6-5, Guardians, middle of
- 56:41Speaker 3: the eighth.

- 58:33Speaker 6: 570 WKBN.
- 58:39Speaker 3: Well, now it's in the hands of Hunter Gattis. Mid-90s
- 58:42Speaker 3: fastball slider changeup. He'll now inherit a 6-5 lead on
- 58:47Speaker 3: Hunter Gattis. He and Eric Cebrowski share the team lead
- 58:51Speaker 3: with 20 holds. Eugenio Suarez 0-3. The pitch to him.
- 58:58Speaker 3: And it's up high, a ball. Cleveland's bullpen leads the
- 59:02Speaker 3: major leagues as a bullpen in holds. 86 times they've
- 59:09Speaker 3: held it. the lead. Suarez 0 for 3, the pitch,
- 59:15Speaker 3: and he cuts and misses, and they count 1 and 1.
- 59:19Speaker 3: Compare that to Cincinnati. Cleveland, 86 holds, the Reds, 58.
- 59:29Speaker 3: Righty-righty and countered. The pitch. And it's popped up. This
- 59:34Speaker 3: is near home plate towards the backstop. Patrick Bailey has
- 59:38Speaker 3: the play. Catcher almost overran it. Reaches back, snags it. Suarez,
- 59:43Speaker 3: a dangerous home run. Threat fouls out to the catcher.
- 59:47Speaker 3: The bullpen's been lights out today. Franco Alamon struck out
- 59:52Speaker 3: five and two scoreless. Colin Holderman had a one, two, three, seven.
- 59:57Speaker 3: Now Hunter Gattis. with Kate Smith for the ninth Nathaniel
- 1:00:03Speaker 3: Lowe the batter one for three with a double left
- 1:00:07Speaker 3: handed hitter he's got pop a dozen home runs Gattis
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: dealing and the pitch in tight ball one again in
- 1:00:18Speaker 3: this ballpark you don't have to have a whole lot
- 1:00:21Speaker 3: of power to hit it out that's why a one
- 1:00:26Speaker 3: run lead can dissipate in a hurry The pitch to Lowe,
- 1:00:31Speaker 3: and he fouled it at the plate. He was fooled
- 1:00:33Speaker 3: on a changeup. One and one. Lowe! He is a
- 1:00:49Speaker 3: guy that, here's the sudden pitch, and he hits a
- 1:00:53Speaker 3: little looping liner that's going to get down for a
- 1:00:56Speaker 3: base hit into right center. I was just going to
- 1:00:58Speaker 3: say Lowe is a guy that Last five years, he's
- 1:01:02Speaker 3: averaged 19 homers a year. Now he'll leave for a
- 1:01:05Speaker 3: pinch runner. Lavin Johnson is going to pinch run. Six
- 1:01:24Speaker 3: to five, Cleveland-Johnson. Just coming up. And the batter will
- 1:01:35Speaker 3: be Tyler Stevenson. Right-hander against right-hander. He's doubled in a
- 1:01:44Speaker 3: run and singled two for three. Six to five, Cleveland
- 1:01:52Speaker 3: in the eighth. The pitch waved at, strike one. Ivan
- 1:01:56Speaker 3: Johnson just up from Louisville. His second stint with the Reds.
- 1:02:09Speaker 3: Down to 0-1. And it's waved at. Good slider away.
- 1:02:14Speaker 11: 0-2.
- 1:02:38Speaker 3: Gattis is ready. Toss to first, back with the dive
- 1:02:41Speaker 3: is Johnson. He represents the tying run at first with
- 1:02:45Speaker 3: a one down in the eighth. Stevenson has played deep
- 1:02:50Speaker 3: in the outfield, but the other way toward right. Wind
- 1:02:57Speaker 3: has been blowing out all day. It's hot. It's humid.
- 1:03:00Speaker 3: The pitch, and he popped it up. First base side,
- 1:03:04Speaker 3: foul ground into the seats. Still a no-two count on
- 1:03:09Speaker 3: the Reds catcher. Reds made the playoffs a year ago,
- 1:03:23Speaker 3: and Tito's first season led them to 83 wins. Wild
- 1:03:29Speaker 3: card entry. They went to L.A. and got swept in
- 1:03:32Speaker 3: two games by the Dodgers. The 0-2. Wide, one ball,
- 1:03:37Speaker 3: two strikes. Hard to believe the Dodgers had to play
- 1:03:42Speaker 3: in a wild card round. Again, the set and delivery,
- 1:03:54Speaker 3: and it's a touch high. And the count two and two. Gannis,
- 1:04:11Speaker 3: the two-two. Foul, tipped it at the plate. Well, three
- 1:04:21Speaker 3: kids took their shirts off in the upper deck in
- 1:04:23Speaker 3: left field. They're going crazy out there. They have the
- 1:04:28Speaker 3: whole upper deck to themselves. Six to five, Cleveland, eighth inning.
- 1:04:35Speaker 3: Gattis is ready. Here it comes. And it's hit high
- 1:04:39Speaker 3: in the air, fairly deep right center, playable. P.D. helping
- 1:04:43Speaker 3: the center fielder, ends up on the warning track. Catches,
- 1:04:46Speaker 3: fires it in. Bluffing going to second was Johnson. He'll
- 1:04:50Speaker 3: head back to first. That looked routine, and the next
- 1:04:53Speaker 3: thing you know, it's on the warning track. Stephenson's out
- 1:04:57Speaker 3: number two. Here's Dane Myers, one for three with a single.
- 1:05:03Speaker 3: Two down, runner at first, 6-5 Cleveland in the eighth inning.
- 1:05:07Speaker 3: Game one of this day-night doubleheader. The set and delivery.
- 1:05:21Speaker 3: Low ball one. Gattis fires, and it's drilled foul down
- 1:05:41Speaker 3: the left side. He got a hanging changeup. One ball,
- 1:05:45Speaker 3: one strike. Two outs. Runner on eighth inning. Cleveland with
- 1:05:48Speaker 3: a one-run lead. Down the 1-1. Fouled it back. Fastball
- 1:06:10Speaker 3: to 96. 1-2 the count. The one-two. Runner goes. Pitch
- 1:06:29Speaker 3: swung on. Dribbler to third. This is going to be
- 1:06:31Speaker 3: a tough play. Ramirez has no play. Just picks it up.
- 1:06:36Speaker 3: Dane Myers. About a 75-foot single to third. Two out,
- 1:06:41Speaker 3: two on for Edwin Arroyo. Here comes pitching coach Carl
- 1:06:46Speaker 3: Willis out of that third base dugout.
- 1:06:52Speaker 16: Arroyo.
- 1:06:53Speaker 3: One for three, an RBI single. Cincinnati's famous for a
- 1:07:02Speaker 3: lot of things. Montgomery Inn. It's a classic down here.
- 1:07:07Speaker 3: About the best ribs you'll ever have anywhere. There's Saratoga chips.
- 1:07:12Speaker 3: Raiders ice cream is here out of Cincinnati. Done with
- 1:07:17Speaker 3: a day-night doubleheader today. What would you have for breakfast
- 1:07:21Speaker 3: at the ballpark? They serve Skyline Chili. There was a
- 1:07:31Speaker 3: line for it. It's because the people that were eating
- 1:07:35Speaker 3: it didn't have to pay for.
- 1:07:38Speaker 11: It.
- 1:07:38Speaker 3: They're paying for it big time now. Nothing says breakfast
- 1:07:47Speaker 3: like chili.
- 1:07:48Speaker 4: Ah, yes.
- 1:07:51Speaker 3: On an 86 degree humid day. Two down, two on.
- 1:07:56Speaker 3: Six to five. Cleveland in the eighth. Arroyo takes a
- 1:08:00Speaker 3: high slider for ball one. Outfield around toward right. Medium deep.
- 1:08:17Speaker 3: The next offering. And it's swung on, pulled foul, threw
- 1:08:22Speaker 3: him a changeup. 1-1 the count. Cleveland led 4-0. Reds
- 1:08:32Speaker 3: eventually claimed a 5-4 lead. Cleveland tied it in the fifth,
- 1:08:37Speaker 3: took the lead here in the top of the eighth.
- 1:08:39Speaker 3: Bottom of the eighth, two out, two on. 6-5 Cleveland.
- 1:08:43Speaker 3: The 1-1. Swing and a miss. Good slider down and in.
- 1:08:48Speaker 3: One ball, two strikes. Get him. Gattis, pitch number 21
- 1:09:02Speaker 3: of the inning. Got him, swinging on a wicked slider.
- 1:09:06Speaker 3: We'll go to the ninth, 6-5 Cleveland on the Cleveland
- 1:09:09Speaker 3: Clinic Radio Network.
