00:00The Reds have something they

00:03haven't done before to do

00:04tonight when back to back

00:06games for the first time all

00:07season long.

00:08I think it was fitting that it

00:09was Hunter Green your opening

00:10day starter your ace who on a

00:12career night kind of led the

00:13way for a hard fought victory.

00:15On the hill tonight for the

00:16Giants will be the rookie

00:17right hander Landon Roop.

00:19Roop 6'2 215 pounder.

00:21He's 26 years of age.

00:22So here's TJ Friedle bounce

00:25to second and that's how this

00:27game gets started.

00:28Blake Dunn going to miss and

00:31that's Roop's signature pitch so

00:34two down and here comes Ellie

00:35Dela Cruz struck sharply to

00:37second and that'll end the

00:39inning.

00:40Great first inning for Landon

00:42Roop 1 2 3 on the hill tonight

00:44for the Cincinnati Reds will be

00:46the left hander Nick Lodolo.

00:47Lodolo in his fourth year at the

00:48big league level former first

00:50round pick by the Reds back in

00:512016 out of Laverne High School

00:54or Damien High School of Laverne

00:55rather big guy 6 6 to 16.

00:58And a walk to open up the bottom

01:01of the first.

01:01But a nice bounce back now for

01:03Lodolo.

01:04He's still got one out to get but

01:06he has a chance to be able to work

01:07around that lead off walk.

01:10Golf to left but that ball dies as

01:13most in flight have on the series.

01:15And the side is retired nice job by

01:17Lodolo to bounce back after the

01:19lead off walk we're scoreless through

01:21one little flair over short.

01:23Kevin Lux has really good A.B.s and

01:26he leads off with a single one on one

01:28out chamber Candelario at the plate.

01:30bounce the third that's one and that's

01:33two double play and the inning is

01:36over two outs for Casey Schmitt.

01:38Schmitt with a bullet down the

01:40line and he is on the move and he

01:45will end up at second base with the

01:47first hit in the game for the

01:48Giants.

01:49Not waiting around see ball hit ball

01:52run like crazy simple philosophy for

01:54Casey Schmitt.

01:55Here's Tyler Fitzgerald runner in

01:56scoring position two down nothing

01:58nothing score.

01:59Broke his bat rolled to De La Cruz.

02:02The Lodolo change him.

02:05The side is retired.

02:07Reds bat here in the third inning

02:08it'll be Spencer Steer to get

02:09things started.

02:10Bottom third of the Reds order

02:11Steer, Fraley and Trevino.

02:13Steer rips this one down the left

02:15field line that's going to drop

02:16fair that's headed into the corner

02:18Steer around first and he's motoring

02:20into second base.

02:21Thoughts of three but he'll slam on

02:23the brakes with a leadoff double

02:25here in the third.

02:262-0.

02:27Smoke to center base hit.

02:29Later break for Steer stop sign

02:31because Jung-Hoo Lee is a great arm

02:33in center.

02:34Steer has to hold it third on the

02:36single to center by Fraley.

02:37That'll get the runner up 90 feet.

02:39And Jake Fraley swipes second base.

02:41And now the Reds have runners at

02:43second and third with nobody out.

02:44Swings away.

02:46On the spin.

02:48Adamus.

02:49But Steer scores.

02:50Trevino picks up his third.

02:52Revy Reds claim a 1-0 lead.

02:54Sam Huff leads off waiver claim

02:56from Texas in January.

02:58He grew up in Arizona.

02:59Born in Phoenix.

03:00Grew up in Scottsdale and he

03:02grew up a Giants fan.

03:04Shoots this one past Encarnacion

03:08Strand in the first hit of the

03:09year for Sam Huff.

03:11Two straight strikeouts for Lodono

03:14after the leadoff single by Huff.

03:16Now Jung-Hoo Lee line to second

03:19for the final out of the third.

03:21Lee hit it hard but right at Gavin

03:23Lux on the line he makes the

03:24catch.

03:25Giants are done in the third.

03:27Reds lead it 1-0.

03:28So an infield hit.

03:29I mean if Chapman can't make the

03:32play there aren't too many third

03:33baseman that can.

03:34You got that right.

03:35And with two outs that will bring

03:37up Jameer Candelario.

03:39There goes the runner.

03:40The throw down by Huff and he's

03:43out.

03:44Perfect throw right on the bag.

03:46Adamas tags him out.

03:49For the Giants in the home half

03:50of the fourth.

03:51Chapman Flores and Matos it's 1-0

03:54Cincinnati.

03:55And three up three down for Lodolo

03:57in the fourth.

03:58The Reds up over the Giants 1-0.

03:59We go to the fifth right after

04:00this.

04:01After four it's 1-0 Reds.

04:04Now Spencer Steer he has hit the

04:06ball hard.

04:07He hit a double down the left

04:08field line his first time up

04:09tonight has scored the Reds only

04:10run.

04:11Yuck.

04:12Sent to left.

04:13Ramos going back spun around

04:15extends the glove and it skips

04:17to the stands.

04:18That was a major misplay on a

04:21ball hit right over the top of

04:22your head.

04:23So the second double in the game

04:25for Spencer Steer who is showing

04:27that he's got some ownage on

04:29Landon Roof.

04:30Larger hopping lead jam job.

04:32All man's land.

04:35Off the glove of Tyler Fitzgerald

04:37later break for Steer he has

04:39third.

04:40And it'll drop in there for a

04:41base hit for Jake Fraley.

04:43So the Reds have him on the

04:44corners.

04:45Now Jose Trevino comes to the

04:46plate.

04:47He's got the RBI to put the Reds

04:48up 1-0.

04:49There's a bunt.

04:51Safety squeeze.

04:52The throw home.

04:53The tag.

04:54And he's out.

04:55What a play.

04:56Casey Schmidt is going to show us

04:57things that you don't normally

04:58see from a first baseman.

05:00And this is one of them right

05:01here.

05:02And he was thinking home plate the

05:03whole time.

05:04Nice job by Landon Roof to get

05:07out of this mini mess here in the

05:08fifth.

05:09So Casey Schmidt has two of the

05:11three hits allowed by Glendolo

05:13tonight.

05:14Sacrifice bunt as it gets Schmidt

05:17into second base.

05:19Right field.

05:22And this is Fraley.

05:25Now Schmidt digging for third.

05:27The throw is cut off by Dela

05:29Cruz.

05:30So two down a runner at third.

05:32And Elliott Ramos coming up.

05:35First pitch right field Fraley

05:37going back going back extends

05:40falls and makes the catch.

05:42Fighting the wind and rode that

05:44ball to the track and Fraley

05:46tracks it down in the inning.

05:48Blake Dunn leads off the Reds

05:50sixth inning.

05:53Just slapped over short.

05:55Dunn's aboard with a leadoff

05:56single in the sixth inning.

05:57But now Dunn's in scoring

05:58position with two outs for

05:59Christian Encarnacion Strand.

06:02Chopper to third.

06:04Chapman.

06:05Inning over.

06:07No runs to hit.

06:08One left.

06:09Adamas doesn't like the call

06:10but it was a strike and it was

06:12very well thrown.

06:13Only the third strike out of the

06:14game for Lodolo.

06:15The second of Adamas.

06:17So that will be an error on

06:18Lux.

06:19Well let's see if the Giants can

06:20take advantage of that.

06:23Popped up.

06:28Two down.

06:29Jung-Hoo Lee takes off and Lodolo

06:31was in the middle of cover to the

06:32plate.

06:33Never released.

06:34A block is called.

06:37Chip to center.

06:38Not a great read at first but

06:39Friedel.

06:40Friedel.

06:41So Lodolo works around the one

06:42out error.

06:43Lee is stranded in second.

06:44At Oracle Park we head to the

06:45seventh inning.

06:46The Giants go to their bullpen

06:47now.

06:48Hayden Birdsong on in relief of

06:50Landon Root.

06:51So the inning is over.

06:52Three up.

06:53Three down.

06:54We go to the last of the seventh.

06:55Macho Schmidt and Fitzgerald

06:56coming up.

06:57The Giants trailing.

06:58One to nothing.

06:59Well a fine six inning performance

07:01by Nick Lodolo will lead the

07:02Reds to a brand new pitcher.

07:03It'll be right hander Graham

07:05Ashcraft.

07:06So the inning is over.

07:07Ashcraft works a one two three

07:08seven.

07:09Still one nothing Reds.

07:11It's a one nothing lead for the

07:12Reds as we head to the top of

07:14the ninth inning.

07:15It'll be Gavin Lux.

07:17First pitch Gavin Lux.

07:20Well struck to the right center

07:22gap to the wall.

07:23Get on your horse.

07:24And Lux into second base

07:26standing.

07:27The Reds could use some cushion

07:29and here in the night it's a

07:31lead off double.

07:32Reds have remained in scoring

07:34position.

07:35Encarnacion Strand is going to

07:37get jammed.

07:38And it's going to be a three one

07:40put out and on the play.

07:42Lux goes the third so it ends

07:44up being a productive out.

07:46Three two.

07:47Got him.

07:48He saves another snapper.

07:50So two down the infield back

07:51normal depth.

07:52Here's the red hot steer.

07:54Got him.

07:55Lux is stranded at third.

07:58Still one to nothing.

07:59The Giants need a run to stay

08:01alive.

08:02Fans chatting Jung Hu Lee as he

08:04stands in here last of the

08:05ninth inning to lead off against

08:07the new pitcher Emilio Pagan.

08:11Floater to left down on the run

08:14makes the sliding grab.

08:16Oh Blake done.

08:17But he's able to make the play

08:19and that's a big first out in the

08:20ninth inning with the Reds trying

08:22to preserve a one nothing game.

08:24Opposite way.

08:25Right at Fraley.

08:27And that ball was really hit

08:29hard.

08:30But it just went right directly to

08:32Fraley.

08:33The Giants are down to their

08:34final hour.

08:35Wilmer Flores stands in.

08:37High fly.

08:38De La Cruz out done in.
