Posey, and a short hop with the catchers glove. And really, was i think the toughest play for a catchers glove. Is to make the short hop and to put a onehanded tag on it. Because it will often times get kicked out of the glove. This is just a great play for crawford, gold glover, and posey who is playing like one to end the inning. I cant fault matt williams, third base coach, for sending owings. Here is jake barrett, hardthrowing righthander, into the bull pen for arizona number 33 and joe panik takes a called strike, walked, hit an rbi single and it into a double play 1 for 2. Barrett has a good fastball, as john said you will see high 90s. You will pretty much see the two pitches. He has got a split. But he doesnt feature it a whole lot. 95 miles an hour, one ball, two strikes. By the way that play, with a put out at the plate goes 8 to 6 to 2. Centerfield to shortstop to catcher. The official scorer has ruled the play on owings, fly ball an error, threebase error on denard span. So no hit. And that makes that tying run an unearned run to the record of George Kontos who did not allow the hit. But the walk and the steal and the replay review showing that he should have been called safe at second. Kept the inning alive and then the diamondbacks got him home. Owings, one away. I think that has a good chance to get changed. Went back the one way and then as you mentioned as we saw on the replay, spun back the way way. I dont think it was a normal play, an average play, he will tell you he should have had it. We see him make that play. But the fact that they recovered and got the out to stop the inning, that is what you could hang a star on, as Jerry Coleman used to say. Well, and it started by a very strong throw. Crawford went way out there to take that throw. A strong throw from well into the outfield on one out to posey. That is as good a throwing as you will see. And span had a great arm, but he gets through quickly. That is what he does. And you know obviously, he doesnt make the play, he gets turned around. Hits right on the heel of the glove. So now he get if your middle infielder was span, you got to get deep and you saw how deep crawford was took advantage of his arm and his accuracy and again the play for posey was extremely difficult because of the short hop off the glove. And then to have contact with the glove, be able to hang onto it. Nunez hit a sacrifice fly, knocking in the giants first run, double down the left field line knocking in the third run, officially 2 for 2, two batted in. Right field line. Take a look, highlight the play for buster posey to go out, one hand, sag and tag, and you have got to pure this thing in the sweet spot of your glove in order to have the hamstring to survive the contact from owings coming in. Posey does it. Score stays tied. 1 and 2 the count to nunez, jake barrett on the mound. 2 and 2. Conor gillaspie on deck. Barrett is the sixth arizona pitcher of the game. 55. In the eighth. Chase two down. So gillaspie will pinchhit for kontos now. Now gillaspie has been brought back, this will be Jarrett Parker instead. So bruce bochy bringing up the guy that he thinks is more like to get ahold of one and just bring some instant offense to the proceedings here, its romo out there getting ready for the last of the eighth inning. So mike, once again, he is usually good for three or four or five, think he has got to lead the league in appearances. This is all about how youre going to pitch parker, which they already covered to a pregame meeting today. And there is nobody theyre trying to get ready down in the bull pen. So Jarrett Parker, a. 244 batting average in the big ut at 66 onbase percentage he has five how we home runs and 119 official, or 124 at bats. Looks a little bit low. Parker has a. 298 average against righthanded pitching. A. 438 onbase average. Hard slider. Thats a good one, got good feel and command of it. Doesnt make any mistakes with that slider. Unless he is throwing a 20, 31, trying to get a strike with it. That was a 10 slider, about as good as you can throw. 2 and 1, we saw hunter pence a moment ago he will tell you about the offense sending the positive vibe his way. 3 and 1. Showed it to him, 10 count, swung over the top of it. Registered the data base. About that time you see it laid off. You know that may have been one part of the message from mike butcher, dont give this guy something he could knock out. Span does not have the same power that parker has. Full count to parker. 55 in the eighth inning. Giants did not hold their 54 advantage very long, the dbacks. Very next half inning after giants. 3 and 2. Giants are going in order. Jensen and Paul Goldschmidt coming up. Romo, when he was a closer in 2012, getting the last out tigers and the giants sweeping them. He is obviously baseball fan, you got to believe he followed that career of romo. Well, now he is stepping in facing that slider for the first time seeing it live. And if youre hitting off of romo from the right side seeing it for the first time youre at a disadvantage. And he threw him the fastball and no swing. Well, he is doing Miguel Cabrera fastball. He is thinking slider, just goes oop, and nails the outside corner. Jensen called out on strikes for the second straight trip of the play. Now here is goldschmidt. Goldschmidt has walked and scored a run and twice struck out. He is officially 0 for 2. Goldschmidt and romo. Not their first goaround. Goldschmidt five hits and 16 career atbats against sergio. That slider is a strike. 55. Last of the eighth. The big hitter for the dbacks is up there right now. Daniel hudson, hardthrowing righthander is up in the arizona bull pen meanwhile. 55. The score. Thats a fastball. On the outside corner. Now its 1 and 2. He is carving a turkeyco rig now doing nothing but painting corners with fastball sliders. Welington castillo is on deck. Slider. Up the middle. Base hit. They moved crawford out, moving three steps towards the hole. When they did that they really took away the reins for him to try and get this ground ball. So a oneout single. And romo has to be very mindful of goldschmidt over there on first base. He has had 23 steals this year. Caught only five times, dangerous hitter at the plate, castillo who is 0 for 3 in this game. Goldschmidt likes to go early. Really have to make him stop. Steal ends up being a huge play for the diamondbacks in the seventh inning, getting the possible time running into scoring position. One ball no strikes. Castillo and romo, castillo, 1 for 5 with three strikeouts. The handful of times that he faced sergio. Panik is almost up the middle, second baseman, on the bag with goldschmidt at first. Came up ready to throw. And goldschmidt hurried back to the bag. I like that. Looks like buster went through the motion of just throwing it right over there and nailed that guy. Thats right. Want to feel it. Muscle memory. 2 and 1. Looks like he changed up on that that. Goldschmidt edges away from first, romo goes into his stretch. He chased the slider, 2 and 2. Tomas, another righthanded hitter on deck. Giants get a lefthander up in the bull pen again. Just in case the diamondbacks should bring up a lefthander, especially a guy named jake lamb. He is the last lefthander they have available on their wedbenc back to the bag is goldschmidt, dave mckay, First Base Coach whispering something to goldschmidt, as will smith, the ln lefthander, up in the bull pen. Second time he has been in. And thats fouled out of play. Not a whole lot of break in that slider. Romo rubs up the new ball. Walks on the infield grass. The outfield is backed up with giants. Pretty much straightaway. 2 and 2 the count. Goldschmidt again back to the bag. No indication of taking off for a steal, that is any time so far. One out single. 2 and 2 to castillo. Romo. Ready to go again. Wow, tried to come back around that outside corner with the movement. He didnt miss by much. I would like to know dale scott is that outside or is that low . Very close to the fastball he used to strike out the rookie. Kyle jensen. 3 and 2 the count, well keep an eye on goldschmidt, he is not running. So he goes to the inside corner on the payoff pitch. When you go inside to castillo, you really have to give it to him. You dont want to miss on the strike zone. Thats his power slot. 3 and 2. Nunez now has to go to first. This time there. Possibility of the double play. Got a tricky hop and could for the could not handle it cleanly. But he got it out. That is the important thing. Breaking ball jams castillo breaks his bat. A little bit of sloppiness on the exchange. Cant get a grip. But he still manages to go down with the bare hand and get the out. So two down and here is tomas. He has had two singles tonight. And three at bats. Yes. Bob davidson, First Base Umpire on the appeal. Daniel hudson up in the arizona bull pen. Giants will be due to have the top of their batting order up. In the ninth inning. Closer, getting ready to go. 55. Possible go ahead run in scoring position at second, Paul Goldschmidt. Ball one, one strike. 19 pitches for romo in this inning. Struck out jensen, and then goldschmidt got a single to center. Castillo grounds out to third. Its a ball and a strike to tomas. Pagan. The inning is over. That ball was hit hard pagan seems to have the gauge all the way. Span, pagan, posey. Due up in the ninth. Chase field, game one of a threegame series, giants five, diamondbacks five, daniel hudson, number 41, from the arizona bull pen. Off to a good start this year, mike, numbers for the year not very good. Well, he hit a dry spell that was beyond weirdness, he couldnt miss a bat. But you still have to respect his stuff. Midto high 90s. And he has got a good hard slider changeup three ways to make it swing and miss. Got good stuff, youre close to averaging a strike out in an inning, good stuff. Span leads off, 0 for 4 in the game. And its 96 miles an hour, a little bit high. Span is hit fly balls four straight times in this game and is 0 for 4. He has had one hit, 25 at bats on this road trip. You know, that is what he can do. He has three pitches that can freeze you, lock you up. If youre looking for something other than what he is throwing you have no chance on it. He has got closer stuff. What gives had hip problems at times is location. And thats all for denard span, drury throws him out. Span is now 0 for his last 25. Here is pagan. Also struggling on this road trip but he hit a long home run to left to give the giants a brief lead in the seventhco inning. That was as a righthanded hitter. Facing the lefthander, escobar, now he will bat lefthanded against hudson. 55, ninth inning, buster posey on deck. Called a strike. 97 miles an hour paint. On the outside corner, not much you can do with that. Pagan is looking for a mistake. That last pitch was not a mistake mistake. Diving, goldschmidt. And hudson. Two down, nobody on for buster posey. Ball right on the nose, you hit it towards a gold glover. Goes well to his right, any first baseman in his league. Perfect feed. Turns out to be a big league hang with them. Buster has struck out and three times in a row grounded out 0 for 4. Strike one call to the inside. Posey, five hits in 17 career at bats against hudson. Including one double. Third baseman drury hugs the foul line. And the slider off the outside one ball one strike. Quality pitch location. Hudson. With a count of 01, that is what you want to throw. Posey sees him well, hits him well. Again with the breaking ball but off the outside, 2 and 1. Pretty good teasers right there. Pitching no matter what. Stays tight or the giants take the lead. Lower deck off to the right. Couple of sliders. Hard stuff. 2 and 2. Two down, bases empty. And its a full count, Brandon Crawford on deck. At this point i would bed if they go on the inside corner. He is thinking if your going to beat me youre going to beat me away. 3 and 2 the count. Will be fouled and they went inside. Right in the hands. Away, away, away. In a defense mode, two strikes, pretty good pitch right there right there on the inside corner. Good pitch. Do well to fight that one off. Go inside, there you go back out a way. 97 miles an hour fastball, posey lost the bat. Hit the left hand. Giants down in order. Last of the ninth upcoming. 55, bottom half of the ninth inning. Hunter strickland coming out to pitch the ninth for the giants. 3 and 2 on the year. 2. 77 e. R. A. , midto high 90s with his velocity, he will give you two and fours, with regard to the movement on the fastball hard slider and a split. Drury has hit a home run tonight. Shot into deep left center. Second inning with a man aboard. Also struck out and flied out to right. Fastball. 98 miles an hour. 0 and 1. Mitch haniger is due up second of the inning, another righthander. And the pitchers spot. Jake lamb would likely be used. That is strike two called. 99. This road trip we see strickland hit the 100 miles an hour plateau with the fastball a few times. Got a great arm. He struck him out. Powered that one by him to say the least. That is just a no respect fastball. He just had a jump shot blocked right there. No big lead hitter wants to have a fastball. Here is mitch haniger, the bay area native. And ricky weeks jr. Has come out on deck, not jake lamb. Zac godley is warming up in the arizona bull pen, a righthander, for a possible tenth inning. Did you say godley . Indeed. Marvin austin, the bull pen coach right behind him. 55, last of the ninth inning. Hunter strickland trying to get the giants into the tenth. 3 and 0. Put away drury on three pitches. Now his next three pitches, none in the strike zone to haniger, popped up three straight times. 3 and 1. Haniger taking it all the way. Pence, into the corner. Wow what a play First Base Umpire, bob davidson made the call. Hunter pence. Taking away extra bases from haniger, he was all the way over the third base. And he refuses to believe that pence caught that ball. Remember, this ball sliced it away for pence, straight away left. And it goes down and catches it about six inches off the ground and watch his momentum. About two feet off the ground i beg your pardon. That is a remarkable play. Catch it indeed. And look at the reaction from strickland. Haniger, threebase hit. He was standing at third, refused to leave for a good while. Finally goes back to the dugout. He was in denial about that one. That may be a gamesaver for the giants. At least at this point, and here is ricky weeks, theyre not using jake lamb. I think weeks is their best fastball hitter. He is going to get some fastb l fastballs. Veteran, hit a lot of home runs as a milwaukee brewer as a second baseman. One time he was about the most powerful second baseman around. Well, he is built like a runningback. He is bull strong. And he loves the fastball. I dont know if you could throw one by him. If you throw that breaking ball first pitch that you miss, the 10 count, you still have to throw a fastball at some point. That one does not miss, 1 and 1. Staying away from it. Slider slider. And weeks has been around for a long, long time. Has nine home runs and 175 at bats. So that is 119 at bats, that is pretty good. Still has legitimate bigtime power. Staying completely away from slider, slider, slider and three pitches. You make a pitcher coming at you with his second best pitch you got reputation, that is what is happening here. Hunter pences best pitch is that fastball. Reputation of week hitting it. Segura on deck. 3 and 1 the count to rickie weeks, here is segura, 5last of the ninth. Two down, bases empty. Third baseman, nunez hugging the foul line deep at third to prevent the possible base hit. And he blew a fastball right by him at 98 miles an hour. That was not a lot of location. He just went right at the belt. Middle of the plate at 98. Full count. Posey might want to see another one of those. And they walked him. Weeks to first with two one and here comes segura. Segura, 0 for 4 tonight. Bumgarner got him four straight times and kontos got him with a shallow ball to right in the seventh. Segura not a big guy but also he has some. He got 12 home runs this year. 35 doubles, six triples. Rickie weeks, runner at first who used to be a pretty good base stealer runs at first. Way outside. If he can score on a double with two outs absolutely. Back up their defense with respect to that. Not full doubles defense, but its deep. Got burned with that full doubles defense in denver. And the slider, took a big rip at it. That was a good one. One ball one strike. May have meant more than a curveball, what do you think some. Its kind of that hybrid pitch in between the slider and the curve. Its higher than a curve, bigger than a slider, but a high velocity breaking ball. Fastball, big rip. By segura back out of play. 1 and 2. Chris owings who is redhot on deck deck. Weeks at first, ready to run at the crack of the bat with two down. Joe panik. And were going overtime. On to the tenth inning. With crawford and hunter pence the first two up. What a play by hunter pence, to rob haniger of likely a triple. Its 55. To prove how authentic my new brewhouse bacon burger is im going undercover, at an actual brewhouse. Its awesome. Amazing what if i told you, you are eating a jacks brewhouse bacon burger from jack in the box. Not this one. Absolutely lying. And what if i told you. That im jack. Whaaaat . no way no didnt see that coming, did you . Porter ale cheese sauce, grilled onions, and bacon on a artisan potato bun. Jacks new brewhouse bacon burger, new from jack in the box. Hey, where did jack go . He was just here. On to the tenth inning, giants 5, dbacks 5, and zac godley, the righthander who has come into the arizona bull pen to pitch. And he has been used most often as a starting pitcher, mike. Well, there are his numbers, look at the e. R. A. , 6. 46, 46 strikeouts, given up 11 home runs, a big sink, good cutter and a split. So basically made nine starts in his earned run average and the starts were 7. 31. That is ball one. This is his tenth relief appearance. And he has had much Better Success as a reliever with 3. 68 e. R. A. He spent the first half of the season in both double a and then triple a in the Minor Leagues. 2 and 0 the count to Brandon Crawford who is 0 for 4 in this game, 4 for 28 on this road r trip. So he is due to give it up absolutely. Give up this slump. Brandon crawford. And back out of play. But you know, i mean that is what he is thinking. Getting in that batters box, he is thinking you know what, its going to end, its going to end. That is the one advantage of being a veteran over a rookie when you have gone through dry spells you know you are going to come out of them because you have done it before. Hunter pence recently came out of one on deck and it goes to 3 and 1 right now. Pence is actually one of the few guys who has done well on this trip as joe nathan is heating up in the bull pen. Will smith there in the foreground. Out of play, into the upper deck on the third base side. Full count. I mean, we are so used to seeing crawford get good balance on any speed he gets. During this dry spell he has lost some of that back leg to the changeup. And you see a lot of soft stuff because of it. Well, he threw something off speed there and walks him. Curveball. Here comes hunter pence, they have noted pence tonight. He has had two infield singles, a walk, and doubled. He is 3 for 3, been on base four times and scored three of the giants runs. This is the part of the batting order that has done most of the damage for the giants tonight. Pence, belt, panik and nunez. Did he swing . Yes, says bob davidson on the appeal so the count is 0 and 1 to hunter pence. Those guys have been on base 11 times of 16 hits, scored four runs for the giants, only other run for the giants produced by the number twoer in the order, pagan with a home run in the seventh. The only hit by any of the first four giants hitters, becoming the second with a walk. 1 and 1 to pence. And a lob throw there by godley. The lob the godley david laroach. Lefthanded reliever, veteran, laroach, la lob. Its great, too. I thought it was a foul ball. I couldnt tell. Kind of gingerly went back to the bag thinking it was just a foul ball. Yeah, bob davidson looking over at billy hayes, saying yeah, its a foul ball. Thats the kind of stuff that gives First Base Coaches heart attacks. One ball two strikes to hunter pence. The arizona bull pen is working feverishly back of godley. Base hit down the left field line. Cut off on the track, both runs take an extra base, crawford stops at third, pence with a standup double. Beat the defense. They had jensen the left fielder, they gave it to pence, they protected the gap in the middle of the field and gave the line. He didnt find it. Second straight double for pence and he really ripped that one. Jensen had to come a long way from that, so easy pick of third base for crawford. With nobody out. Pence puts himself in scoring position as well. With the giants fans coming alive. They got to walk belt with nobody out. Intentionally. Because of the sinker, that godley has, theyre going to set up the force. Ball 2, to brandon belt, who has had two singles and a walk tonight. It will be the fourth time he reached base. Hunter pence has five times in this game. The manager for the dbacks is going to say you have to decide if you want to stay with it. Belt takes his walk. And he is to go to lefty. I find that a bit odd. If youre going to think about strikeout situations. Easy to pitch in the strikeout situation with an open first base. So corbin, the lefthander, will be brought into the game with the bases loaded. To prove how authentic my new brewhouse bacon burger is im going undercover, at an actual brewhouse. Its awesome. Amazing what if i told you, you are eating a jacks brewhouse bacon burger from jack in the box. Not this one. Absolutely lying. And what if i told you. That im jack. Whaaaat . no way no didnt see that coming, did you . Porter ale cheese sauce, grilled onions, and bacon on a artisan potato bun. Jacks new brewhouse bacon burger, new from jack in the box. Hey, where did jack go . He was just here. Bases loaded for the giants, nobody out, tenth inning, 55 of tie here in downtown phoenix, there is patrick corbin, longtime starter for arizona including earlier this year made 24 starts this year. It was not going well. And lately they put him in the bull pen this is his seventh relief appearance, and he inherits a very tight spot. With the lefthander joe panik coming out. He can sink and cut, got a good hard slide r and a changeup. But i find it a bit odd, because if youre going to pitch for the strikeout, its easier to pitch for a strikeout when you have an open base, you dont have to give into the strike zone at all. But here they use that base, put three men on. This is still a strikeout situation for corbin. He has to be much finer now, he doesnt have an open base to play in. The infield, the great sweeping breaking ball outside for ball one. Joe panik with one hit in five previous atbats against corbin plus a walk. Panik tonight has walked, singled home a run, grounded out to double play and popped up to short officially one hit and three at bats. And that is off the outside. That is what corbin wanted. Best arm in the dbacks outfield and rightfield. They bring jensen, the left fielder in. He doesnt have a great arm so theyre going to play him shallow. 2 and 0 the count. And a fastball. Just a half swing there by panik, as it was in for a cold strike anyway. 2 and 1. Saw a couple of breaking balls, 78, 79, fastball at 92, got around quickly. 2 and 1. And that is foul. 2 and 2. A edwardo nunez, righthanded hitter on deck. Enriq enriq enriq enriq enriq enriq enriq enriq enrique borges. Throwing an off pitch, 32 count doesnt scare corbin. But he has to throw a strike. Right to the second baseman, this can still be two, they get one at the plate and thats it. And crawford came in, tried to clip the corner castillo, the catcher. Knowing that castillo might have been thinking about making a throw to first. Well, you have to try to put a little heat on them. That is all youre trying to do is upset his back foot. That is good baseball. So nunez, chip hale, standing outside the dugout. They want to see if they could possibly rule that interference with crawford kicking the back foot. Has to talk to dale scott about it. The plate umpire. Giants lost a game for new york. Remember that a few years back . Was a play at the plate like this. And they got the out at home, and then buster posey tried to throw back at first for double play. Got a hit as he was throwing it. The ball went down the right field line. Theyre going to look at it. I mean, he that is a straight lied into the bag right there. Or into the home plate. Not like he went out of his way. And if the catcher is in your way, you can do what he did. I mean, i dont see how that is an infraction. Going to be very interesting to see how they interpret this in new york. That is straight into the plate. Not even sure if this castillo is going to make a throw anyway. Didnt look like he already decided not to throw it. Had the arm cocked and ready to throw. So this is the first time weve seen well, here is the call. Well, im assuming that theyre just saying that the out was made at the plate. Thats it. Yeah, that is it. I think. Now, chip hale is going to come out and say he is kind of speaking on behalf of all of us here. What did you just say . Thanks jim. So i assuming that he just said they got the out at the plate and thats the end of it. Now hale will bring in burgos. Now with one out and nunez coming up. The giants still have the bases loaded with one out, and the diamondbacks desperately trying to keep the giants off the board here. The lefthander, corbin, and bases loaded, now one out nunez will come out against burgos. The numbers for burgos, in 35 innings, burgos, 6. 09 e. R. A. , the thing that is interesting, burgos has 21 walks in 34 innings, you will see good to high 90s. Pretty much two looks he is going to give you. Pence the runner at third, belt second, panik at first. Infield still in, very high with a fastball. You mentioned the wildest he can show at times. 21 walks. 34 innings. But having said that, nunez wants to swing it. Fly Ball Situation for nunez. 1 and 1. That is what youre looking for, for a fastball up. If you can get deep enough to score the run. A medium fly ball is going to get the job done. The middle infield has not dropped back a little bit. Not all the way in as at the had been. Connor gillaspie, up next. 2 and 1. Everything has been up so far for burgos, who has allowed 54 base runners hits and walks and the at bats combined, 54 base runners in 34 innings. His earned run average is 6. 09. Nunez knocked in two runs already in this game, a sacrificed fly, singled in the sixth. Two hits, three official at bats. Two batted in. That got away. Its not a foul ball. And here is hunter pence to score the go ahead run. Neither a walk nor a hit but rather a wild pitch that puts the giants ahead. In make you smile, if youre hunter pence. Never got his hand in a good blocking position. Kind of tried to shortstop the ball with his glove. Hit off his wrist, kicked away and an easy score for pence. So nunez swung at a bad ball as it turned out. The diamondbacks have the infield all the way once again, 2 and 2 to nunez. And does he risk throwing that same kind of hard slider when that last one got away from castillo . Make a good point. And that one is a high fastball, right back to castillo. Almost as if they planned it that way. Castillo played he was going to run back and make the play himself but belt caught it and went back to third. If you want to anticipate the fastball, you want to be aggressive. And right away, Roberto Kelly putting on the stop sign screaming no, no, no. Two in a row that got past castillo. Right now, castillo, catcher for the diamondbacks not having fun. 3 and 2 to nunez. And the hard slider. That was nasty. He struck it out. Trying to throw that earlier strike that got away from castillo. The thing about burgos, he wants to swing it. Tough guy to walk and he proved it there. But conor gillaspie, a different hitter. Much more disciplined in the strike zone. 65, giants. He has got first base open but another lefty on deck, santiago casilla, gets ready for last of the tenth, diamondbacks, some of their best coming up. Owings, then goldschmidt, wouldnt mind of gillaspie could cash in another couple of runs here. They had the bases loadeds, and nobody out. Now a run in, second and third two down. Right by him on one. If youre a hitter, have a 10 count, you want that challenge coming after you. That is all you can ask for. A good pitch to one. Get back in the batters box, hope you get another. 65 giants, belt at third, panik second, burgos, so nine pitches. Five have been out of the strike zone. One was a wild pitch. And one was a wild pitch, the camera back to the catcher, ended up not being a wild pitch. Nobody advanced. Its been an actionpacked nine pitches. One of them also struck out nunez. Foul out of play. Off the left field line. Now its 2 and 2 to conor gillaspie. 70 miles an hour challenge, down at the knees. Gillaspie has been the giants most used pinchhitter, 10 for 45 overall. In that role. Same deal here, castillo, you want to call another slider in the dirt. That righthanded, warming up. There is that slider, its a good one, check swing and apeal. No swing, 3 and 2. Crawford got off the inning with a walk pence double understand third, corbin came in, lefthander, righthander, burgos struck out nunez but only after throwing a wild pitch to get a run home. Two down, runners at second and third. Up and in, foul back to the screen. At 96. Burgos is the tenth pitcher used by the diamondbacks in this game. Both runners ready to go crack of the bat two down. And a popup. Fouled. Drury. And the giants get only the one run on the wild pitch. Will that be enough . Here comes castillo. To try and make it hold up. Good evening, well get back to the giants game in just a moment. We want to give you a quick look at the headlines this week, the latest scandal with the 49ers, bruce miller, making his Court Appearance today. Miller faces seven felony counts, enhancement of hurting an elderly person and was immediately cut by the 49ers. Also a tragic accident in the east bay, 680 closed in both directions during the height of this evenings commute. An suv slammed into a car that was on the shoulder of the freeway. Reports say a 4yearold boy died, his siblings and mother are injured. Now, coming up well hear what the chp says about the female driver who slammed into the car. Right now, were tracking the fog against the immediate coastline pushing in for the saturday morning fog, spotty drizzle by the afternoon hours, clearing out in the interior valleys, that will give us mostly sunny skies in terms of our temperatures, average of 88 on saturday, check out much week, cooler temperatures, raj, well have much more coming up after the game. Well send you back to giants baseball. John miller and mike krukow rejoin us now from phoenix. Casilla, who got a save in a onerun game on tuesday in colorado, was not able to have that same success in denver on wednesday. And now, he gets another shot at it here in the tenth inning. With owings, who is redhot. Then jensen, the rookie. Although they still have lamb, remember. And lamb in fact, as i mentioned here comes lamb out in the ondeck circle. Lamb with a lot of success against the giants, in particular against casilla, so casilla will have to face owings, and then lamb on deck. Giants have a lefthander up in their bull pen. I think that is probably will smith again. Owings had two singles, ended up being dropped by denard span, and went to three bases. Got thrown out at the plate. Which still is a huge play in this game. If he had scored in that play, the dbacks might have taken that game in regulation. The eighth game on this road r trip. That is over the inside at 94 miles an hour. One ball, one strike. There is will smith. It is indeed the lefthander up in the giants pen. As bruce bochy said, he will mix and match the ninth innings. Last nine games, casilla has hit a bump in the road. Two of those saves have come in just the last four games, sunday at wrigley field. And then wednesday at coors field. 2 and 1 the count to owings. He won that last fastball. The hottest diamondbacks with the bat in his hands, owings. Belt, casilla covered, got him, one away. Thats a big out. Bruce bochy staying in his chair. Casilla, hooked up with lamb in the ninth inning. And lamb just barely up onto the tin roof up there. But it was long enough to tie up that game at seven. And the diamondbacks eventually won it in extra innings. So here is jake lamb, who for the season has 27 homers and 85 runs batted in. He also has eight triples, 25 doubles. But, he is not as hot now as he was back in april. Did see the graphic with the history of casilla, three lifetime hits, all home runs. So you know he sees them well. Seven at bats, three home runs against casilla. Thats a foul that will go out of play in the third base side 96 miles an hour velocity. Santiago casilla had a meeting in bruce bochys office before the game. As far as we know. At least bruce bochy did not talk to us about what they spoke of. Bruce bochy did say after the meeting that he would mix and match in the closing situations. One ball, one strike. That ball is hit well. Deep into left center. Its gone. Unbelievable. That is the deepest part of the yard that is the opposite field for the lefthanded batting lamb. Fastball up. Out over the plate. And lamb back spins it. And its just a matter is it going to stay in the yard. You dont see many hit out the ballpark, especially from lefthanded hitters. Unbelievable. And now goldschmidt and a curveball for a strike. Bochy rolling the dice, trying to get his closer back. You saw the reaction from the skipper. Oh, he drilled it. Curveball. Now the possible winning runners on base. They got to get their concentration on right now. If he is going to stay in this ball game he has to get it together. Trying to get it back on focus. Breaking ball, just hits him on the hip. And its just a lack of concentration. So this is going to be a pep talk. Get it back on board, get him aggressive. Tell him to keep it right here, well win it the next inning. You got to sell imhim on it. He has to get past it to get out of this inning. Got too much power coming up to the dbacks. And they are good mistake hitters. He also seems to be mindful of a guy at first base who couldnt steal the base here as Welington Castillo comes up against casilla, and fouls back out of play. When i talked to bohy before the game about the situation didnt make any compliments about casilla, but also talked about if not casilla, then whom . Choices are not exactly that obvious. And if you take somebody out of a role from an earlier inning then who replaces them in that inning . And its a called strike. 0 and 2 the count, there is joe nathan now. Yasmani tomas is on deck. He is on the disabled list and has an opportunity to come out monday, coming later in the week, in the bull pen today said he felt great. There goes goldschmidt over the head and the throw is much too late. Now the possible winning runners are in scoring position, posey goes for the mound to talk to casilla. This is going to be real simple. Pay attention to it because he will try and steal third. Cant take a lot of time to unload. If youre going to steal you always hope to get a breaking ball or changeup. That is exactly what gold got. 1 and 2 to welington casilla, two hits and seven career at bats against castillo. Now, it could end this game. Out of play. Got to get that ball down. More movement down around the knees. Now ahead in the count. He doesnt have to go in the strike zone, think corner, let your movement go out of the zone. Let him chase. 1 and 2. And the bluff to second that caught the attention of goldschmidt. Nobody was covering. Very high. Foul back into the upper deck. 1 and 2. Well, if youre going to go up, get right above the letters. Casilla, he wants to swing it. He wants to be the hero, he is in the swing mode. Just dont drop that fastball down between the belt the letters. That is something you do not want to do. 66, last of the tenth. Goldschmidt over to third. Two down. And Yasmani Tomas to the plate. Must have been stone cold coming into the series after he struck out his first at bat, last at bat hit a bullet to left field. So he is gaining confidence as the game has worn on. 2 for 4, the last time he was up there he clobbered the ball, the liner, lot of top spin to it. Caught at the edge of the warning track. That was after those two singles. 0 and 1. 94 two seam movement. They all want to be the hero take advantage of it. Stay on the corner, stay off the plate. Let them chase. Top of their batting order in the 11th inning. If they can get there. Cut off the outside, one ball, and one strike. Tomas hitting. 262. Got 27 home runs, very low onbase average. He does not often walk. Blocked by buster posey. The game saving block, as goldschmidt came well down the line from third. Good position with the hand. Cover that hole between your legs, slight lean. Let that ball die in front. Goldschmidt heads to third. Two balls, one strike the count. Joe panik. And we move on to the 11th inning. Denard span, angel pagan, buster posey. Comfort food, youve had a good long run. But your time is over. Its time for something new, something simple. Grown right here in california with absolutely no antibiotics ever. Food were comfortable eating, making, serving. This is the new comfort food. And it starts with foster farms simply raised chicken. California grown with no antibiotics ever. Lets get comfortable with our food again. Tuesday nights, will be dynamic deal tickets, starting as low as 7. The games are obviously all big ones. Visit sfgiants. Com dynamicdeals. Dont forget the monday night game. The 49ers will open their season and the giants will be showing the 49ers game and all the moderates around the ballpark. You will have a chance to follow that one as well as enjoying the giants and the padres. Jeff samardzija will be the giants starting pitcher on monday night. Numbers from matt coke. Fourpitch guy, fastball, curveball, he can go lowtomid 90s. Koch came over with the diamondbacks, trade for addison reed, the reliever. There is jake lamb now at third base and Brandon Drury stays in the game to play left field. So lamb had pinchhit for jensen who was the left fielder. A Major League Debut for matt koch. The ball is pulled way foul into the second deck down the right field line by denard span who was 0 for 5 in this game, and 0 for five in his last 20. One ball and one strike. Normally, under normal adrenalin situations he has a pretty good idea of the strike zone, however, this one, that was a good changeup right there. Making his debut. 21 starts in the Minor Leagues this year, with double a mobile, and triple a. 93 miles an hour. Koch, who was just brought up from the Minor Leagues three days ago, this is his first appearance, as you said, mike, in a big league game. Back to the screen, 2 and 2. Were looking through all the notes on this young righthander. Out of the university of louisville. And according to the notes it says he pronounces his name, koch, he pronounces it cook. So used to be a guy named billy koch who had that spelling, a closer with oakland for a while. The koch brothers. But he pronounces it cook. So thats a new one. For that spelling. 3 and 2. And he gets a walk. Denard span. The ball goes to the back stop. Will take first base, giants have somebody aboard. And now angel pagan. Sorry, that walk right there is also going to tighten things up for mr. Koch. When you get out there, for your Major League Debut you find yourself in the middle of a pennant release, you start
