00:00Andrew Heaney's number is brought to you by Pennsylvania State Lottery, ERA's gone up a bit this month of July, 4-8, 4-59 ERA, holding opponents to a .244 batting average.
00:11Chase Mydrop, 1 for 10 so far this series, puts this one in play, deep to right center field, continues to carry, did it go out?
00:19They're saying fan interference, we're wondering if it's a home run, as Mydrop has ended up at third.
00:26That's going to be a really close ball, this ball just kept carrying and carrying, definitely below that yellow line.
00:31More than likely, Chase is going to be sent back to second base, I don't think they're going to have to take very long of a look at that one.
00:36Daniel Cruz reacts, you've got to catch it.
00:38Yeah, hold on.
00:40You're going to reach over the fence, hold on to it.
00:41After further ado, the call on the field is confirmed, fan interference, second base.
00:45Slater, a four-pitch walk, so that'll bring up the catcher, Edgar Caro.
00:49And Lioncock, quick flip, safe at second.
00:51The one down, runners stay where they are, it's Miguel Vargas batting.
00:55Drills this one, deep to left field, and it is out of here.
01:00Can I take my change of, can I take Vargas?
01:02Oh, man.
01:04Plus 5.50 today, and Vargas goes deep here in this first inning.
01:08Vassal smiling from the bullpen, yeah, we see you.
01:10And it's the Sox with an early 3-0 lead.
01:13Home runs have been a big issue for Heaney, and it bites him here in the first inning.
01:17Tuchman, this one is long gone.
01:19It is out of PNC Park.
01:22Oh, my, Tuchman.
01:24You better get the boat to fish that one out.
01:27White Sox not giving Andrew Heaney a time to settle in.
01:29First pitch fastball, middle in.
01:31This one's off to the drink, way out of PNC ballpark.
01:35Fifth home run of the season as the Sox go back-to-back and make it 4-0 to start.
01:40And on the mound for the White Sox, it'll be Aaron Savali.
01:42This'll be his 12th start, his 7th at a White Sox uniform.
01:4552 and 2-3rd, you see that ERA a little bit elevated.
01:48His main job right now, throw strikes.
01:50Good start for Savali, gets the punch-out.
01:52Here's Andrew McCutcheon.
01:54Ground, this is Montgomery at 3rd, showing you the range.
01:58He's got the athleticism to play, short or 3rd.
02:01Two outs here in the first.
02:02You can tell he just feels like he belongs here with this White Sox team.
02:05Backhanded by Vardis, the flip to Savali.
02:07And a good start on the mound after the Sox put up four runs.
02:10It's Savali getting a 1-2-3 first inning.
02:12As the Pirates trying to get their first win in this series,
02:14they're going to need some offense.
02:15And a guy who provided a good chunk of it last night is Nick Gonzalez.
02:18He had three hits.
02:19Now the left center.
02:21Oh, and it drops.
02:22And Nick Gonzalez is at second base.
02:25And look at this, he's going to be at third.
02:26Nicky G, a double, and it goes to third on the air because he was hustling.
02:30Great opportunity to get one of them back.
02:32Cruz, a 7-game hitting streak.
02:34And that will certainly get him home.
02:37Sacrifice fly for O'Neal Cruz.
02:39And the Bucs are on the board.
02:41So it's 4-1.
02:41Take advantage.
02:43Here's Joey Barton.
02:44Good life on the cutter there.
02:45Second strikeout of the game.
02:47Yeah, I really like the way he's been attacking the strike zone.
02:49Balls on a strike to count.
02:50And the air to left field.
02:51Backing up is Taylor at the warning track.
02:53We'll make the grab.
02:54So the Pirates get on the board.
02:56But it's the Sox with a 4-1 lead after two.
02:59Heading to the fourth inning.
03:00And here's Luis Robert Jr.
03:01Luis Robert Jr. not waiting around.
03:04Strokes a single into left field.
03:06He now has a 7-game hit streak.
03:07Let's see if he wants to run.
03:08And Sosa the batter.
03:10Luis Robert Jr. goes.
03:11And he steals it easily.
03:12Takes a look at the ball.
03:13Now he continues on.
03:14He will scoot to third.
03:16He is a difference maker.
03:18When Luis Robert Jr. is playing at this level.
03:20Starting to see the tools that this guy has.
03:22And he has a lot of them.
03:23Sosa hits it hard.
03:23It is snagged by Kyner Falefa.
03:25Robert Jr. stays put.
03:26And there's the first out in this fourth inning.
03:28So Colson Montgomery now with a chance to drive in that run from third with one out.
03:31That one is in the air.
03:32And it's going to go into right center field.
03:34Robert Jr. scores easily as the rookie, Colson Montgomery, comes through with an RBI single.
03:40It's now 5-1 Sox here in the fourth.
03:42Left on left.
03:42Five runs for the White Sox.
03:44Cruz, who's driven in the only Bucco run today.
03:46Third and final game of the series.
03:47Bucs try to avoid a sweep today.
03:48Got him swinging.
03:50Third strikeout of the game for Savali.
03:52As he has been in control here in Pittsburgh.
03:55Through four.
03:55Sox up 5-1.
03:56Carroll will take a walk.
03:58Lead off.
03:58Free pass.
03:59Ahead of Vargas.
04:00Vargas rips it down the line in left field.
04:02He is 2 for 3 today.
04:05A 3-run home run in the first and now a double in the fifth.
04:07And the Sox are threatening with nobody out.
04:0925 doubles this season for Miguel Vargas.
04:11Now here's Mike Tauchman.
04:12In the air to center.
04:14It's deep.
04:14Cruz still going back.
04:16And it's over his head.
04:18Carroll scores.
04:19Rounding third.
04:20Vargas.
04:21Throw to the plate.
04:22Is late.
04:23Tauchman with a 2-run double.
04:257-1.
04:26Over the head of O'Neal Cruz.
04:27And Mike Tauchman has driven in 3 today.
04:29Cruz uncomfortable as he was going after that.
04:32He took a knee for a long time afterwards.
04:34It looks like he's going to be okay.
04:35Aaron Savali.
04:36He's thrown the ball really well.
04:37Probably the best start he's had so far since he's put on a White Sox uniform.
04:40How about Aaron Savali?
04:41Back-to-back strikeouts.
04:43The punch out to start this bottom of the fifth.
04:45Attack in the strike zone.
04:46Give him a chance to use his best weapon.
04:47That's the curveball.
04:48How about battling back with a strikeout?
04:50From 3-0 to take a seat.
04:52Yeah, the nasty curveball.
04:53That's been his best friend this afternoon.
04:55Three in a row for Aaron Savali.
04:57He's got it working here in Pittsburgh.
04:59Showed him the curveball.
05:00Got him to ground it to Montgomery at third.
05:02Another quality inning for Aaron Savali.
05:05Aaron Savali is doing his part here in the finale of this series.
05:08Just three hits given up by Savali.
05:10Got him upstairs.
05:11Aaron Savali with one of his best starts in a White Sox uniform.
05:16Closes out the sixth.
05:17And a bullpen that has been very stingy of late takes over.
05:20Grant Taylor here in the bottom of the seventh.
05:22Got him with the curveball.
05:23Grant Taylor gets the first out here in the bottom of the seventh.
05:26Boy, that is pitching 101, right?
05:28You speed him up to slow him down.
05:30What a good curveball.
05:31He did go around.
05:33But instead of taking off to first part,
05:35he'll make the walk to the dugout.
05:36Second strikeout here for Grant Taylor.
05:38Wild pitch.
05:38Gonzalez advances to second.
05:40Three strikeouts here in this seventh inning for Grant Taylor.
05:44Just filthy stuff.
05:45White Sox going back to that bullpen.
05:47The big house.
05:48Dan Altavilla.
05:48This will be his 20th game.
05:50Hometown guy coming back home.
05:51We're up about a half hour from the Berg.
05:53Assuming that that heart's got to be pumping.
05:55Chop.
05:55Softly to second.
05:56Charged by Sosa.
05:57And he'll get the out at first as Hayes barely ran down the line.
06:00Isaiah Kiner-Falefa the batter.
06:02Strike three called as Altavilla paints the corner.
06:05AKF not able to pull the trigger.
06:07A nice sliding stop by Vargas.
06:09And Dan Altavilla.
06:10Another scoreless inning.
06:12Repping your hood.
06:14Back to the Berg.
06:15Well done.
06:15It's a 7-1 ball game.
06:17The Chicago White Sox are trying to sweep.
06:19This three-game series will be their first sweep of the year.
06:22That's hit hard to right center field for Andrew McCutcheon.
06:25Bangs off the padded wall and right center.
06:28As he ties Willie Stargell.
06:29Major League Baseball's all-time hit list.
06:31Coasting into second with a leadoff double.
06:34Right to short.
06:36One out in the bottom of the ninth.
06:37Bouncing ball down to third base.
06:39Up with it.
06:39Is Montgomery.
06:41And a run will score.
06:42Gonzalez will get the RBI as McCutcheon crosses the plate.
06:457-2 ball game.
06:46But there are now two men down in the last of the ninth.
06:49Bringing O'Neal Cruz to the plate.
06:51Cold strike three.
06:52Break out the brooms.
06:53The Sox pull off their first series sweep of the year.
06:57With a 7-2 win here in Pittsburgh.
06:59Fun way to start the second half of the season coming out of the All-Star break.
