  Speaker 1: News Radio 570 WKBN, Youngstown.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Eric Cebrowski on the pitch here in the eighth. He
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: misses inside ball one to the number nine hitter, the
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: left fielder, right hand to batter, Bryce Teodosio. The 1-0 pitch.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: A swing and a foul off to the right. One
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: and one, they count. Teodosio 0 for 2 today. The
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: 1-1 pitch. Swing and a miss. 1-2 the count. Matt
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: Festo got the key batter he needed to get in
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: the 7th. Parker Messick another terrific outing. On a day
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: where I bet if you asked Parker right now he'd
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: say I wasn't as sharp as normal.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: The pitch. Swing and a miss. Struck him out.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: As Sabrowski moved it in on him. A good fastball.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: and Teodosio out number one in the eighth. That's the
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: separator on guys that get it done in the big
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: leagues and guys that become great starting pitchers. You're not
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: going to have 32 starts with your A game, with
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: all your pitches, with pinpoint command. How do you do
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: if you're missing some of that? First pitch, curveball, a
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: lit in. Maybe inside, maybe not, but Cleveland's out of challenges.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: Leadoff man Vaughn Grissom takes ball one. 0 for 2
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: with a walk.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: The set, the 1-0 pitch. Up high, 2-0.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: But again, Parker Messick showed you that today when he
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: scuffled early with his command, he fought through it. It's
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: about as competitive as it gets and ends up working
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: almost seven innings. Pitches up high, 3-0. And Parker Messick.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Show me another rookie pitcher that's better than him in
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: the major leagues this year.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: And not out of nowhere, but what a great addition
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: to that starting rotation tail end of last year and
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: has done nothing but carry it through.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: 3-0 the count.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Pitches high, and this is what really upset Eric Cebrowski.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: About his outing last night, he worked an inning, struck
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: out the side, but he walked two. And today was saying,
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: I was not good at all. Well, and again, shows
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: you how good these guys are if they don't think
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: they're good, and yet he still throws up a zero.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Here's Mike Trout, the pitch, and he looks at a
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: ball down low. Cebrowski this year, 22nd appearance, a 196 ERA,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: a 115 batting average against. Seven hits allowed and 18 innings.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: The pitch, in the dirt, curveball and advancing to second
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: in the wild pitch is Grissom. And just like that,
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Cebrowski has walked the batter, fallen behind 2-0 and issued
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: a wild pitch. Out to the mound, catcher Austin Hedges.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Cebrowski this year in 18 innings, 32 strikeouts with a
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: fastball in that 93 to 95 mile an hour range,
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: a curveball, and a slider. Mike Trout today, fly out,
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: ground out, strikeout. Cleveland four, Angels two. Runner at second,
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: one out in the eighth inning. Trout in a hitter's
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: count The 2-0 pitch. Inside corner, a strike. Trout didn't agree. 2-1.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Mike Trout spent on base 25 consecutive games against Cleveland
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: going back nine years.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: But not today. The pitch. Swung and drilled to left.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: Down the line.
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: Foul.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: He hit a two iron. That hook foul. And the count.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: Two balls, two strikes.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Got a text message from good friend and legendary college
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: baseball coach, Danny Hall. Here's the 2-2 pitch. Curveball a
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: bit high. Danny Hall, who helped put Kent State baseball
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: on the map, then had a Hall of Fame career
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: at Georgia Tech, retired after the NCAA tournament a year ago.
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: Now the 2-2 pitch.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: And strike three called. Got him looking at a curve ball.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Mike Trout will challenge the call. And the video board
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: says Mike Trout's out looking. Huge strikeout for Siborowski. Trout
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: is out number two. Runner still at second. Cleveland still up.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: Four to two and here's Joe Adele 0 for 3.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: And when Danny Hall decided to call it quits, one
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: of his assistant coaches getting the head job to follow
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: him at Georgia Tech.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: Here's Joe Adele fouling it back.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: Danny Hall made sure the cupboard wasn't bare. He made
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: sure that his protege had a chance to compete this year.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: Georgia Tech is 42-8 and ranked third in the country.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: And then.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Do the Bulldogs a very good chance to get to Omaha.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: The pitch swung and missed.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: 0-2 the count.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: That's the mark of a class individual. Making sure, he
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: could have coached this year, but making sure your successor
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: can be successful.
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: And Tom, in this day and age with all the
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: transfer rules, a school like Georgia Tech to be able
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: to have consistent success is remarkable.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: And think of a degree from Georgia Tech. Do kids
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: think of that anymore? Here's the 0-2 to Adele. Bounced
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: it in there all the way to the backstop. Another
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: wild pitch moves Grissom to third. Well, based on all
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: of the comments we're getting from Lane Kiffin and Steve Sarkeesian...
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: You do not want to go to Ole Miss unless
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: you don't care about a degree.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: How about that?
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: Baskets are nice.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: Good Lord.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Now, Danny Hall would never stoop that low like those
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: two guys. Now the 0-2 pitch to Adele. Swing and
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: a foul at the plate. Anyway, we thank Danny Hall
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: for listening to us down in Atlanta. One of the
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: great people the game of college baseball has had. And
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: he is a Hall of Fame college baseball coach. Cleveland four.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Angels two.
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: Two down. The pitch. Up high. Two and two.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: Adele batting with two down in the eighth. Grissom at third.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: Cade Smith is available to pitch today. Now the set
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: and the delivery. Swung on, fouled out of play to
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: the right.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: Will do it.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: Again at 2-2. And warming in the Cleveland bullpen is
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: the newcomer, a veteran right-hander, Cody Hoyer. Adele has struck out,
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: lined out, grounded out. Two down, eighth inning. Cleveland up two,
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: a runner at third. The pitch. Swung on, drilled a
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: deep right, but he sliced it foul. Boy, Adele has
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: looked Great, this series. Last night he robbed Anil Martinez
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: of a home run. Since 2022, that's the ninth time
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: Joe Adele has taken a home run away from a hitter.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: Nine times. The pitch.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Got him swinging on a breaking ball. Sabrowski strikes out
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: the side for the second day in a row. Cleveland 4,
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: the Angels 2. Middle of the 8th on the Cleveland

• 10:46
  Speaker 3: News Radio 570 WKBN, Youngstown.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: Jace DeLauder will lead off the Cleveland eighth inning. And
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: the Angels go back to their bullpen. I'll tell you what,
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: Sam Bachman was impressive. Imagine facing him in the Mid-American Conference.
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: Chase DeLauder leads off, and the right-hander, Ryan Zephyrjohn, misses outside. Zephyrjohn, 2-1,
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: one save, ERA 435. Another guy can light up the gun.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: The pitch is in there, a strike. They have some pieces, Rosie.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Do the Angels have enough starting pitching to turn it around?
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: And you do it piece by piece, and it's not
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: all going to come together at once. You've kind of
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: seen that in the ERAs.
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: Zephyr Johns' pitch outside, a breaking ball, 2-1.
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: When you start putting together Soriano with last night's starter
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: and Bachman's got a good arm, this kid, it's not
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: going to be consistent probably, but piece by piece, that's
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: how you get back in it.
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: The pitch.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: Swung on, fouled upstairs, 2-2 the count. Well, they're lucky
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: too that nobody in the West has gotten hot At
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: no point have we seen Seattle look like the team
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: that almost got to the World Series.
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: The 2-2. Way inside. De Lauder. A single, a sack fly,
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: and a ground out.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: Once again, this guy just game after game at bat
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: after at bat. De Lauder has a quality at bat
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: and a deep count once again.
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: Payoff pitch.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Swung on a rocket down the right field line, foul.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: Three and two to count. And can you also imagine
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: kids in the Colonial Conference pitching to Chase DeLauder going,
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: what in the world is he doing at James Madison?
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: I couldn't imagine that, those poor kids.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: Why didn't I play tennis? The payoff, swung on, drilled
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: into left field, a base hit. Another terrific at-bat for DeLauder,
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: a two-hit game. But again, I think it's the beauty
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: of our game. De Lauder never played on a travel
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: ball team, was never one of these showcase ponies that
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: we see so much of now. They look good in
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: a showcase, but they can't play the game. He just
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: went and played, and if you're good enough, the scouts
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: find you, whether it's James Madison or wherever. Now Reese
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: Hoskins being lifted for a pinch hitter. Kyle Manzardo takes
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: high and wide.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: Ball one.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Manzardo will stay in and play first. Hoskins one for two.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: A single, a walk, and a run scored. Manzardo, the
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: left hander batter. The righties pitch. In there, a called
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: strike to even the count. Four to two, Cleveland. Bottom
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: of the eighth inning. Kyle Manzardo has become proficient at
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: pinch hitting. Three for six.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: The pitch. Swung on. Dribbled foul.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: Right side. One and two to count. Cloudy day now
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: in downtown Cleveland. 55 degrees at game time. It's no warmer.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Is it May 13th or March 13th? The pitch, fouled
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: it back. We'll do it again at one and two.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: Zephyr John is out of the University of Kansas. We
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: know all about Kansas Jayhawk basketball. They're ranked 16th in
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: the country in college baseball. Tony Amato was wondering. The pitch, outside,
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: two and two the count. Tony asked me to go
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: through the top 25 in college baseball, but I think
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: that's too much.
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: Come on, you can do it.
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: We've got a couple innings left.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: That's a strike. I beg your pardon. Kind of a
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: late call, and they ring up Kyle Manzardo. Again, Cleveland's
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: out of.
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: Challenges, or that one would have been challenged. One down.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: Sam Bachman wiped out all four men he faced, an
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: inning and a third scoreless relief, a strikeout. Now the
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: pitch to Petey Helpin. His first at bat, lost one
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: in the air. Medium deep left center, caught by the
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: center fielder Mike Trout.
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: Two down. Boy, the one.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Thing that's really helped this club and balanced the major
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: league roster is getting a guy like Petey Helpin up here.
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: where you can put him in when you have the lead,
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: knowing there's not a much better center fielder in the game.
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: And he's embraced that bench role where he knows he's
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: going to come in late if the team's leading. Two
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: down for Travis Pazana, takes a called strike. Two for
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: three today. Pazana's only hitting. 227, but is on base
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: well over. 400. The pitch, up high, 1-1. We'll see
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: him this weekend, but Tito always maintained when he managed here,
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: if you don't have plate discipline in the minor leagues,
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: you'll never learn it on the big league level.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: It won't happen. The 1-1.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Outside corner strike. If you're striking out 170 times in
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: the minor leagues, wait until you get up here. And
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: these guys never miss their spot or know how to
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: expand your strike zone. That's why Bazan is so successful
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: because of his plate discipline.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: The pitch, high, 2-2.
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: There were five hitters in the starting lineup today for
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: Cleveland that had more walks than strikeouts or equal walks
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: to strikeouts.
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: Isn't that something?
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: That's unusual in today's.
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: Game.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: 4-2 Cleveland, two down and the eighth runner on. Here's
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: the pitch. Check swing, pitch outside. I mean this kid.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: Borderline has the guts to go. That's not a strike.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: And to take it, and now it's a 3-2 count.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: So traveling time at first for DeLauder. The payoff, got
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: him swinging on a back foot slider. Innings over, Bazana
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: strikes out. Cleveland takes a 4-2 lead into the ninth inning.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Cade Smith will face the middle of the order when
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: we come back.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: News Radio 570 WKBN, Youngstown.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: Cade Smith had.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: A four-out save last night, but he's able to come
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: back not even a full day later because the four-out
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: save came on 18 pitches. 4-2 Cleveland. Front door slider
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: stays inside on Jorge Soler, the cleanup hitter, opening up
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: the Angel 9th. Solero for three. The set and delivery,
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: a swing and a miss. One ball, one strike. Cleveland
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: four runs, seven hits. The Angels two runs, four hits.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: Smith is ready. Here it comes. Swing and a miss.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: 96 miles an hour. Another tremendous outing by Eric Cebrowski.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Struck out the side, walked one in a scoreless frame.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Smith lets it fly in the dirt. Ball two, two
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: and two. Cade Smith, 12 for 14 in save opportunities.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: He's 2-0 with a. 320 ERA, 20th outing. By the way,
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: Eric Sabrowski got his 16th hole today. The pitch swung
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: on and missed, struck him out with a heater in
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: on the thumbs. That is 11 strikeouts for Cleveland pitching.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: Cleveland leads the American League in strikeouts by a pitching staff.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: One down, ninth inning. Oswald Peraza the batter. And he
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: takes a little bit wide.
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: Ball. one.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: Peraza one for three with a single. The pitch and
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: it's in there called strike. One ball one strike. I
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: think it's safe to say Rosie that Whatever it was,
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: the pitch, waved at, good slider. The tinkering and whatnot,
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Kate Smith is locked in.
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: Definitely much more direct to home plate, he was saying,
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: and that has made a difference.
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: The set and pitch.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: Strike three called on a 97-mile-an-hour outside corner fastball. Angels
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: down to their last out. Two down in the ninth,
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: 4-2 Cleveland. Angels have scored two runs in all three games.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Never more, never less. And thus Cleveland on the doorstep
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: of a sweep.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: The set. The pitch.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: Bullseye, nothing and one to count to Zach Netto. 21,142
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: on their feet at the corner of Carnegie and Ontario.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: The set, the pitch. In the dirt to the backstop,
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: one ball, one strike. Parker Messick, a tone setting, six
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: and two thirds innings, striking out seven, giving up two runs.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Then Matt Festa, Eric Zebrowski, and now Cade Smith. The
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: Cleveland bullpen dominant again. Front door slider stayed inside in
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: the count two and one on Netto. We are seeing
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: more sliders today from Kate Smith. Now the right-handers, 2-1 delivery.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: Bullseye on a swing and a miss fastball. Boy, right
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: now his fastball, despite four outs last night, has that

  Speaker 2: Well, the Guardians, in front of over 21,000, complete a sweep. Man,
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: was this pitching impressive this week against an Angel Ball
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: Club that, remember, on the road, they're averaging over five
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: runs a game, and they have hit... Almost three times
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: as many homers on the road as at home. That's
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: how good Cleveland's pitching was this week. In each game,
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: the Angels were held to two runs. By no means
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: was Cleveland blowing the Angels out, but they did the
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: little things and were able to scratch away a 3-2
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: win last night. And then today, a 4-2 triumph, and
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: the Guardians are now 24-21. Final numbers next.

  Speaker 1: News Radio 570, WKBN, Youngstown.
• 25:27

• 25:34
  Speaker 2: The Angels, two runs on four hits, one error, and
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: four men stranded. The victory goes to Parker Messick. What
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: a start for the rookie. Now 5-1. Saved number 13
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: for the dominant Cade Smith. Reed Detmers pitched well but
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: takes the loss.
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: He is 1-4. 2.29 to play it. 21,142 on hand.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: Cleveland stays in first with a record now of 24-21.
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: And the Angels limp back to the West Coast. Worst

  Speaker 4: look at the out-of-town scoreboard, and it is brief. Most
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: of the action today is later on, but one game
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: going on.
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: Still going.
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: They're in the top of the ninth, but it looks
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: like it's almost done. Baltimore shutting out the Yankees by
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: a score of 7-0. Again, top half of the ninth
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: inning down at Camden Yards. And again, the rest of
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: it later on, including the Guardians' next opponent.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: The Reds.
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: They are hosting the Nationals tonight down in Cincinnati. Right here,
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: a 4-2 win for Cleveland.

  Speaker 4: Welcome back to Guardians Wrap-Up. We're in downtown Cleveland at
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: Progressive Field, where the Guardians win it today by a
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: final score of 4-2. Time now for our Honda Drive-It-Home
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: Game Summary, and the Guardians got it going quickly today,
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: about as quick as you can, with Angel Martinez in
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: the leadoff spot. Stephen Kwan with a day off, and
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: Martinez came through in his first at-bat.
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: Detmers, he delivers. And a swing and a high drive.
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: Deep left field. It's got a chance. Gone to the bleachers.
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: He's done it again. Angel Martinez. Solo homer last night.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: Banning left-handed. Solo homer today. Banning right-handed. A team-high seven
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: home runs for Angel Martinez. 1-0 Cleveland here in the
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: bottom half of inning number one as the top half
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: of the order trying to get it going early against
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: Reed Detmers.
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: Boy, could have been three home runs in two games
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: for Martinez, but Last night he had hit a home
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: run and had another one taken away by Joe Adele
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: in right. But he goes deep into the bleachers today
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: to lead it off. And then the Guardians scored another
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: run in that first inning on an RBI ground out
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: off the bat of David Fry. They added another run
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: in the third inning, this time on a sack fly
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: from Chase DeLauder. And that made it a 3-0 Guardians lead.
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: But the Angels would battle back. They scored twice in
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: the fifth on a two-run home run from Zach Netto.
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: his seventh home run on the season. But then Cleveland
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: would add an insurance run in the sixth inning thanks
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: to Daniel Schneeman.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: The set, the pitch, and a swing and a line
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: right base hit in the left center. Hoskins will try
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: to score. Trout decides not to throw to the plate.
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: Throws it into the infield. RBI single. Schneeman delivers again
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: against the Southpaw. A two-out RBI single to left center
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: puts Cleveland on top. Four to two. Steemans' 18th RBI.
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: And that'll be the end of the line for Reed Detmers.
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: And four to two would be your final score today
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: from Progressive Field. The winning pitcher, Parker Messick. Now five
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: and one with six and two-thirds innings of two-run, four-hit baseball.
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: Kate Smith with a perfect ninth. Striking out the side
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: for save number 13. And That puts him atop the
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: Major League leaderboard in saves now. Just one ahead of
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: Mason Miller, the outstanding closer for San Diego. Reed Detmers
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: takes the loss, falling to 1-4. Final line, two runs,
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: four hits, one error, and four men left for the Angels.
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: For the Guardians, two runs, seven hits. Excuse me, four runs,
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: seven hits, no errors, and five men left on base.

  Speaker 4: Welcome back to Guardians Wrap-Up. Following a 4-2 Guardians win,
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: we'll hear shortly from manager Steven Vogt, but first, today's
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: winning pitcher, Parker Messick.
• 35:09
  Speaker 17: Parker, you and I talked a couple days ago about pitching.
• 35:12
  Speaker 17: Sometimes you don't have your best stuff. How the belief
• 35:15
  Speaker 17: you have in all your pitches and having Hedgie kind
• 35:17
  Speaker 17: of work through that, how much did that play out
• 35:19
  Speaker 17: today for you?
• 35:20
  Speaker 18: Yeah, it's definitely one of those days, you know, it
• 35:23
  Speaker 18: was probably the best pregame bullpen I've ever thrown in
• 35:25
  Speaker 18: my life. And then it just did not translate to
• 35:27
  Speaker 18: the game. It was one of those just didn't have
• 35:29
  Speaker 18: a great feel for for all the pitches and especially early.
• 35:33
  Speaker 18: I had to kind of fight through that. And it's
• 35:35
  Speaker 18: just one of those things you can't give up on anything.
• 35:37
  Speaker 18: And Hedgie does a really good job of not letting
• 35:39
  Speaker 18: me do that. He's going to force me to get
• 35:42
  Speaker 18: pitches in zone. And then we find the right spots
• 35:44
  Speaker 18: that are the ones that we feel are working the best.
• 35:46
  Speaker 12: And that's what we did.
• 35:47
  Speaker 18: Did a good job managing everything and ended up with
• 35:49
  Speaker 18: a pretty decent one.
• 35:50
  Speaker 17: How gratifying is that, that you know that you may
• 35:53
  Speaker 17: not have your best stuff and maybe early on the
• 35:56
  Speaker 17: pitch count gets up and you look up and you're
• 35:58
  Speaker 17: leaving the game in the seventh inning?
• 35:59
  Speaker 18: Yeah, it's definitely a lot of prayer between those innings.
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: You just got to know you don't.
• 36:04
  Speaker 18: I'm not feeling them. It's just one of those days
• 36:06
  Speaker 18: where you look back and you can get an outcome
• 36:10
  Speaker 18: like that. and have your team pick you up the
• 36:12
  Speaker 18: way that they did today for me, then I can
• 36:17
  Speaker 18: rest easy tonight and get back at it and hopefully
• 36:19
  Speaker 18: have a good one the next start.
• 36:20
  Speaker 17: Speaking of picking, how about the way your bullpen has
• 36:24
  Speaker 17: been playing for you guys over the last three or
• 36:27
  Speaker 17: four weeks here?
• 36:28
  Speaker 18: Yeah, they've been locked down. I mean, we have all
• 36:31
  Speaker 18: the confidence in the world, every single one of them. um,
• 36:33
  Speaker 18: that they're going to come in and get the job done.
• 36:35
  Speaker 18: I tried to do the best I could today to,
• 36:38
  Speaker 18: to give them a little bit of a break. Cause
• 36:39
  Speaker 18: I know that they've been working hard. So try to
• 36:41
  Speaker 18: get as deep as I could into that one. And then,
• 36:43
  Speaker 18: you know, let, let our guys close it out. And
• 36:45
  Speaker 18: you know, that's what we did. They've, they've been phenomenal.
• 36:47
  Speaker 17: 16 starts into your career.
• 36:48
  Speaker 19: Now, like, if you think back to your first few starts,
• 36:52
  Speaker 19: how much more comfortable are you now? And do you
• 36:54
  Speaker 19: almost have like cues you can turn to where those
• 36:57
  Speaker 19: first few starts you might've felt lost out there.
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 37:00
  Speaker 18: There's, there's definitely some, some different things that you learned.
• 37:03
  Speaker 18: I mean, this it's baseball, you're going to constantly learn
• 37:05
  Speaker 18: and the game is going to show you a lot
• 37:07
  Speaker 18: of things about yourself and your team. So there's, there's
• 37:09
  Speaker 18: definitely a lot of things that I, you know, know
• 37:12
  Speaker 18: about myself when I'm pitching, when I'm missing certain spots
• 37:14
  Speaker 18: with certain pitches, different cues that I can use today
• 37:17
  Speaker 18: for me, it was just not trying to, you know,
• 37:19
  Speaker 18: don't want to get into a habit of guiding pitches
• 37:21
  Speaker 18: where they're supposed to go. I, you know, I want
• 37:23
  Speaker 18: to rip it. I want to get down the mountain,
• 37:24
  Speaker 18: rip it to the spots. And I started doing that
• 37:26
  Speaker 18: the last, you know, two innings, two, three innings.
• 37:29
  Speaker 12: Whatever it was.
• 37:30
  Speaker 18: But first couple just felt like I was trying to
• 37:32
  Speaker 18: kind of place the pitch and each pitch trying to
• 37:34
  Speaker 18: guide it to the spot and then kind of, kind
• 37:36
  Speaker 18: of snapped out of it there towards the end and
• 37:38
  Speaker 18: really felt, you know, back to my normal self.
• 37:41
  Speaker 13: After giving up that home run, are you kind of
• 37:43
  Speaker 13: talking to yourself? Are you keeping yourself blank upstairs or
• 37:45
  Speaker 13: what's going through your mind after that?
• 37:47
  Speaker 18: Yeah, there's a little bit of both there. You're kind of,
• 37:49
  Speaker 18: it's one of those things that I just have to clear. It's,
• 37:52
  Speaker 18: We're still winning the game, and at that point, it's
• 37:54
  Speaker 18: a one-run game. So I've got to lock it in
• 37:57
  Speaker 18: and make sure that I keep the team in the game,
• 37:58
  Speaker 18: keep the lead. And like I said, when I get
• 38:02
  Speaker 18: out of that inning and our offense goes back in
• 38:05
  Speaker 18: and gives me another insurance run, that gives me all
• 38:07
  Speaker 18: the confidence in the world to just go right back
• 38:09
  Speaker 18: out there and attack. And I can't thank them enough
• 38:11
  Speaker 18: for picking me up in that way today. So they
• 38:14
  Speaker 18: did a phenomenal job.
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: And now let's head back downstairs for manager Steven Vogt.
• 38:20
  Speaker 20: You can see he and Hedgie just figuring out how
• 38:22
  Speaker 20: to get in the zone, how to keep them off balance. Man,
• 38:25
  Speaker 20: did he make pitch after pitch after pitch. And it kept, like,
• 38:28
  Speaker 20: as the outing was going, it was like, man, how's
• 38:30
  Speaker 20: he doing?
• 38:31
  Speaker 12: How's he doing? But he just kept going.
• 38:32
  Speaker 20: And, you know, obviously the offense kept giving us, you know,
• 38:37
  Speaker 20: that fourth run was huge. And just to be able
• 38:40
  Speaker 20: to have that and continue. But Parker, he just battles.
• 38:44
  Speaker 12: He competes. And that's what we've talked about. It was
• 38:46
  Speaker 12: a very mature outing by him. Run game.
• 38:50
  Speaker 17: We can talk about hitting all the time, but what
• 38:52
  Speaker 17: do you think the run game did early on to
• 38:53
  Speaker 17: help you guys get that lead?
• 38:56
  Speaker 12: I felt like it got Detmers a little out of
• 38:58
  Speaker 12: his rhythm. He was having to sidestep.
• 38:59
  Speaker 20: He was having to pay really close attention to the
• 39:02
  Speaker 20: base runners, Ozzie and Angel, causing havoc there in the
• 39:06
  Speaker 20: one and two spot and just making things happen. We've
• 39:12
  Speaker 20: done such a great job. JT, Sandy, done such a
• 39:16
  Speaker 20: great job with our base stealing. identifying guys that we
• 39:19
  Speaker 20: can go on and credit to our guys. They're working
• 39:22
  Speaker 20: on the vaulting. They're working on the hopping. We're looking
• 39:24
  Speaker 20: for ways to push the envelope there. And it felt
• 39:28
  Speaker 20: like early in the year, we got three. out a
• 39:30
  Speaker 20: lot but these guys are starting to get more comfortable
• 39:33
  Speaker 20: with it you see you know bizana drawn throwovers we're
• 39:36
  Speaker 20: drawn disengagement so we're going to keep pushing the envelope there.
• 39:40
  Speaker 17: So what do you have to say about the way
• 39:42
  Speaker 17: your bullpen is pitched not just today but the last
• 39:46
  Speaker 17: three or four weeks here.
• 39:47
  Speaker 20: The bullpen has been great um I really want to
• 39:50
  Speaker 20: tip my cap to them on this 13-game stretch. I mean,
• 39:53
  Speaker 20: they covered a ton of innings, most of them going
• 39:56
  Speaker 20: three out of four back-to-backs.
• 39:59
  Speaker 12: They were all running hot.
• 40:00
  Speaker 20: We had guys step up on nights when guys were down.
• 40:03
  Speaker 20: It's not just three or four guys getting it done.
• 40:06
  Speaker 20: It was all eight of them, nine. We made a
• 40:09
  Speaker 20: couple moves along this 13-game stretch, and whoever it was
• 40:14
  Speaker 20: we gave the ball to was phenomenal.
• 40:16
  Speaker 12: I mean, they just stepped up and stopped games. Cause
• 40:19
  Speaker 12: we're walking a lot through this year.
• 40:21
  Speaker 21: And in addition to like the base selling or those
• 40:23
  Speaker 21: two areas that you guys pinpointed that you wanted to
• 40:26
  Speaker 21: focus on, like, what do you, what do you make
• 40:27
  Speaker 21: of those?
• 40:27
  Speaker 20: We want to have quality of bats and we want
• 40:29
  Speaker 20: to push the envelope on the basis. You know, we've
• 40:32
  Speaker 20: talked about it since spring training. We just want to,
• 40:34
  Speaker 20: we want to get to first, you know, find a
• 40:36
  Speaker 20: way to get to first. And, you know, we've seen
• 40:39
  Speaker 20: at work, we've seen getting pitchers, pitch counts up, you know,
• 40:41
  Speaker 20: and we've had our games where we haven't been able
• 40:43
  Speaker 20: to do it. Good pitching will always be good hitting,
• 40:45
  Speaker 20: but for the most part, I've been really pleased.
• 40:48
  Speaker 12: I mean, we walked a ton, this homestand, and it showed.
• 40:52
  Speaker 20: And, you know, really proud of the way our guys
• 40:54
  Speaker 20: rebounded twice on this 13-game stretch. You know, we lose
• 40:57
  Speaker 20: three in a row from Sacramento to Kansas City. We
• 41:01
  Speaker 20: bounce right back and drop two tough ones over the weekend,
• 41:04
  Speaker 20: come right back and, you know, get a sweep going
• 41:08
  Speaker 20: into the off day.
• 41:08
  Speaker 12: So really proud of those guys.
• 41:11
  Speaker 13: Going back to the base pass and running a lot,
• 41:13
  Speaker 13: I mean, it seems like as more guys come up,
• 41:15
  Speaker 13: there's more options. How good does that feel to kind
• 41:18
  Speaker 13: of have more and more options out there in the
• 41:20
  Speaker 13: base pads and really cause that chaos you're looking for.
• 41:22
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 41:22
  Speaker 20: You know, like we've talked about since spring training, we
• 41:24
  Speaker 20: feel like we're going to keep getting better as the
• 41:26
  Speaker 20: year's going. We're going to keep growing up. We're going
• 41:28
  Speaker 20: to keep evolving and keep getting better. And, and we
• 41:31
  Speaker 20: know we have really good players in our system and
• 41:34
  Speaker 20: it's showing, I mean, you know, maybe we're not the
• 41:37
  Speaker 20: fastest team, but we were very good base running team
• 41:40
  Speaker 20: and it's starting to show.
• 41:42
  Speaker 12: It's been really fun.
• 41:44
  Speaker 22: Whether it's a player or a manager, What's your perspective
• 41:48
  Speaker 22: on how rare it is to see guys like Travis
• 41:51
  Speaker 22: and Chase, who in the grand scheme of things, don't
• 41:53
  Speaker 22: have a ton of big league at-bats, to have the
• 41:55
  Speaker 22: complete discipline that they're.
• 41:57
  Speaker 12: Showing early in their career? Yeah, it's been really fun
• 41:59
  Speaker 12: to watch those two. I mean, they are.
• 42:01
  Speaker 20: They're in the infant stages of their big league career.
• 42:03
  Speaker 20: But the mature approach, the mature at-bats, I mean, players
• 42:07
  Speaker 20: today are so talented. It's unbelievable. You see it around
• 42:10
  Speaker 20: the league. I mean, guys coming up for the first
• 42:12
  Speaker 20: time and they can hang. But you don't always see
• 42:15
  Speaker 20: the mature approach that, you know, Chase and Travis have shown.
• 42:19
  Speaker 20: And it's just been fun to watch. They've worked extremely
• 42:23
  Speaker 20: hard and they're, you know, they're stubborn to who they
• 42:27
  Speaker 20: are and.
• 42:27
  Speaker 12: It's really fun to see.
• 42:31
  Speaker 21: What impressions did you have of the two, three spots
• 42:33
  Speaker 21: that will shake up in the lineup today?
• 42:36
  Speaker 12: Yeah, it was great.
• 42:36
  Speaker 20: I mean, Hosey, Hosey got on base twice and hit
• 42:39
  Speaker 20: two balls right on the nose. And obviously Chase didn't
• 42:43
  Speaker 20: skip a beat. So we're going to keep evaluating where
• 42:45
  Speaker 20: we want to be with the lineup and As you
• 42:47
  Speaker 20: guys know, it changes every day.
• 42:49
  Speaker 12: We make it to Pete the starter. So that worked today.
• 42:52
  Speaker 12: We'll see where we're at on Friday. What did you
• 42:55
  Speaker 12: think of Mark Tate as a leadoff?
• 42:57
  Speaker 20: I mean, it's pretty fun to get a homer on
• 42:58
  Speaker 20: the first at bat and, you know, then getting on
• 43:01
  Speaker 20: base on the air and making things happen on the bases.
• 43:04
  Speaker 12: So, again, you know, on Connie's off day, he stepped
• 43:08
  Speaker 12: in and did a great job.
• 43:09
  Speaker 20: But how different is that pressure batting in that spot?
• 43:13
  Speaker 20: You know, it's like we talk to our guys all
• 43:14
  Speaker 20: the time. It doesn't matter where you're hitting in the order.
• 43:16
  Speaker 20: Go take your at-bat. There's nothing, there's no rule book.
• 43:19
  Speaker 20: There's no, hey, you need to see eight pitches or
• 43:21
  Speaker 20: you need to take or, you know, we don't ever
• 43:24
  Speaker 20: prescribe how our guys should take at-bats.
• 43:26
  Speaker 12: They need to go be themselves.
• 43:29
  Speaker 20: You know, if we're one through nine trying to beat
• 43:31
  Speaker 20: the starter in their way, they need to know who
• 43:34
  Speaker 20: they are. So whether on-hill's hitting one, two, seven, just
• 43:38
  Speaker 20: go be on-hill. And that goes for all of our guys.
• 43:43
  Speaker 4: So there it is, our coverage from downtown Cleveland today.
