00:00Welcome everyone to Steinbrenner Field in Tampa as it's a new week and a new team in town tonight game one of three for the race against the Chicago White Sox taking the ball for Tampa Bay tonight Shane Baugh's powerful right hander here we go with Mike Tuchman to start it and a cut and a miss and there's that knuckle curve that can be so effective here's Chase Mydraugh rookie shortstop here's Mydraugh slashing it down the line and it goes into the right field corner it will slide into second and one out double here in this first inning yeah Chase Mydraugh doing what Chase Mydraugh does gives you a quality
00:29the bat keeps his head down he drills his ball one hops the wall in right field you have to be careful here with these dimensions it's only 314 down the line if you hit one hard you've really got to think two out of the box and a third to God here's Vargas and a pop up straight back foul chance and after and he's got it to retire the side and on the mound for the White Sox Sean Burke this will be a 17th start one of the keys I want to do is keep this guy Chandler Simpson off the bases might be the fastest guy in baseball
00:59three call good pitch from Sean Burke Simpson thought it was ball four it was a fastball right on the inside corner and Burke strikes him out first baseman Jonathan Aranda having a breakout season this year
01:09that's a popper in his short lap gonna fall base hit there for Aranda a two out single the other way Aranda has his first hit close to All-Star break dropped it in and here is Junior Caminero
01:20and a chopper that's gonna deflect off the glove of the pitcher Burke and the throw to first is wide Aranda had moved to second he'll go to third the Raves come out of that with men on the corner first and third and here's Josh Lowe
01:32this one driven into left field Baldwin will make the grab as Burke gets out of this early jam
01:38there's our first look at Kyle Teal left hand batting catcher and a building block player for the White Sox
01:43Teal with a good swing in the left center field Simpson even with his speed not able to get to that one
01:48Colson Montgomery and batting seventh will dig in and there's a swing and a base hit out of the right center
01:55Teal turns and heads to third they're at the corners
01:59and now first and third two men away and up steps Brooks Baldwin who lines one well to right
02:03back to the ball goes low and it's a three-run homer for the number nine man Brooks Baldwin and the White Sox jump out to a three nothing lead
02:10ambushes Shane Boz on the first pitch not waiting around another one of the young Sox position players getting a chance to play and he just beats him to the spot and he knew it was gone when he hit it
02:19and the bases are gonna be loaded here in the third inning with nobody out bases loaded 2-2 pitch here to Teal
02:25oh and strike three call he got him there got that called in at 99 and that's a big big out
02:32That'll bring up Luis Robert jr. He's 0 for 1
02:35Luis Robert jr. Rips it to left field it's gonna bounce in front of Murrell
02:39My drop comes in Benintendi's waved in a two-run single for Luis Robert jr. Who has turned into the hottest hitter for the Sox
02:48It just sounds different off of Luis bat that sounded like he hit it with a telephone pole just a loud kaboom
02:54Oh, he just barrels this one up. He wasn't fooled at all continues to be a difficult evening for Shane Barnes and the Rays
03:01Two runs to give him 40 on the air with a ground ball to first out at second and back to first safe there another run
03:09Scores walls got over trying to cover first and had to come off the bag on the return throw
03:13So Vargas scores Montgomery picks up a run batted in
03:16Jonathan Aranda who got a base hit to get out of a little 0 for 11 mini slump steps in and hopes to get things started for the Rays offensively
03:23Third ball to Aranda smothered by Vargas with Burke covering the bag there's out number two
03:28Nothing better than great defense
03:30Probably the most exciting thing in the game is watching defenders leave their feet make a great play
03:34Here's the pitch to Junior Caminero
03:36And a swing and a missed strike three very awkward as Caminaro ended up letting go in the back
03:41That was a very vicious cut four strikeouts for Burke after three
03:45So first and second nobody out. Well, here's Christopher Morrell. You talk about a guy who can get you going with one swing
03:51Breaking ball got him swinging. Yeah, he was fortunate to get away with that one there
03:55That one's intended to be down in a way a little bit of a backup curveball
03:58But for a guy that's a free swinger like Morrell, he gets himself out and here's Taylor walls
04:01Runners go 3-2 and it's lined into right
04:04Coughman on the run is gonna reach up and could not make that catch it was off his glove two runs are gonna score
04:10Walsh winds up at second and the Rays are finally on the board
04:14It's a 6-2 ballgame
04:15Did you bid attendee leads off in the fifth against Shane Boz?
04:18Oh the 1-0 pitch is hit deep into right to the wall
04:22A leap and that ball is going to be off the wall for excavations
04:25Ben and Tindy pulling up at second with the double and he is on for the second time just beyond his reach as he went back
04:31Now the White Sox trying to get through is Miguel Vargas
04:33The payoff pitch to Vargas drill down the left field line doesn't have enough carry and it's gone
04:39Miguel Vargas with a two-run shot here in this fifth inning and the Sox get both of those runs back
04:45Hot and muggy here in Tampa, but good weather for a snowman for the White Sox an 8-spot and a nice catch by that fan too barehanded
04:52All right new pitcher is Stephen Wilson and the Rays have the first two on here in the sixth inning
04:57Morrell at second and Jansen at first with one out of the home sixth inning
05:00On the ground this could be two Sosa starts it off my drive
05:04Just gets the speedy Simpson
05:07They double play to get out of the sixth nicely turned
05:10That's about the only way you're going to double off Simpson
05:12He hits a one-hop bullet Kevin Cash says thumbs up he was out
05:15Terrific turn
05:16Brandon Iser another left-hander who comes on and will face Yandy Diaz to start
05:21Wide ball into left that's going to send Wallowin back
05:24That's got carry and it is gone
05:26All run on a rising line drive it just kept going up seemed to me like it was still going up when it got to the wall
05:32Yandy Diaz he has brought the thunder in the second half
05:36I mean he had an outstanding series against baltimore saw a grand slam in that series now you're seeing the power game continue
05:40And that momentum throughout this series that was a beautiful job of just getting the barrel to it driving it out to the pull side
05:46Here's lenny and sosa pop up down the left field line will it stay in play walls coming to the screen leans over and did he catch it?
05:54Yes, he did nice play by taylor walls down the line
05:58I wasn't sure if he was going to have any room to get to the netting to gone in the eighth inning
06:02So the two outs bottom of the order Brooks Baldwin will step up one for three
06:06That three-run home run coming back in the second inning swing and a miss
06:10Finally angler gets baldwin for k-number nine for raised pitching on the mound for the White Sox the big house
06:15Dan alt the building's been in 20 games look at that ERA 1.61 new right fielder for the White Sox Michael A. Taylor takes over
06:22And Taylor be tested right away, and he's up to the tap one out here in the bottom of the ninth
06:27Here's the speedster Chandler Simpson has been kept off base tonight. Oh for four
06:32Popped him up
06:34My drop drifting back and the Sox are one out away from taking game one of this series one two
06:41Hot shot back up the middle it is Sosa to throw that's ball game
06:46And the Sox are the hottest team in baseball coming out of the break after sweeping the Pirates
06:51They take the first game here against the Rays offense that scored 27 runs in that series against the Pirates
06:57Come back with an eight spot. It's hot and muggy and humid, but good weather for a snowman for the Southsiders
