A’s vs. D-backs Game Highlights (6/28/24) | MLB Highlights

it’s a Friday night in downtown Phoenix that means Diamondbacks baseball tonight first of three against the Oakland Athletics and here’s right-hander Slade Sone just a few days after his 25th birthday 11 appearances for Slade 10 starts Webby mentioned this start against the Nationals on that last road trip did not give up a run on three hits over six innings was shortened up a little bit against the Phillies in his next start because they had a lineup loaded with Lefty so uh hopefully get him deep into the ball game here tonight give that bull been a little bit of a break there is their center fielder JJ blade who leads it off he leads Oakland in runs and hits this year those are 11 homers already a career high and it’s swung on and missed went to the change up couple of times and got strikes in the atat and he went to the change up to get his first strike out yep nice pitch he likes throwing that to lefties and just a beautiful location on this now the left fielder Miguel and duar right-handed hitter good numbers this year 328 averaged Q shot back to the mound and Sone gloves takes his time delivers a strike to First and and duar retired for out number two Brent Rooker is the biggest threat here he is their RBI and Ops leader he’s got 14 home runs he is a bit of an All or Nothing kind of guy big power but he does lead the American League in strikeouts swung on hit towards deep right center field gritch is there and he will make the catch shy of the warning track and it’s a one two three inning here and the top of the first at tell Mar hand as the often is set to lead off against the left Tander and this time it’s the gays JP SE four in seven and 16 starts and facing the Diamondbacks for the first time in his career much like the Diamondbacks the last couple days he’s coming off a feet down at the hand of the Minnesota Twins he went an inning and a third gave up eight runs on nine hits against the qus and sends one out to right field as Cameron won’t get there and it’s off the wall catel Marte one swing and it’s a leadoff double catel is contractually obligated to get a hit as first and bad in the ball game I mean he smokes this fast but 93 on the outside corner and just rips it to right field great start LS Alexander bat second he’s the DH tonight swung on and that’s lifted to left room out there for andar gets in position he’ll make the catch bluffing is Marte on a strong throw to third base again by andar and there’s one away the Diamondbacks have scored first in 51 games this season that’s the second most of the Majors the A’s have allowed their opponents to score first 51 times that’s the most of the majors Lis dunks it into short left here comes Marte here’s the throw for vanar it is not in time and the Diamondbacks have the lead Lang aers got it with enough time to make a tag but Marte with a great slide home and The Knack SED one to nothing boy andar got to that ball this ball was not hit hard by guel that kind of jammed him just a little Little Blooper out there and that was huge I think and handar came up and just threw a pill all the way to the plate but just a little bit late and a RBI and advances on the throw and here comes Christian Walker and he’ll fly it to shallow Right Center out goes gof and he’ll make the catch for the second out it’s been a bit of a slog for Oakland they have lost their last 11 Road games the A’s last won a game on the road back on June the 1st at Atlanta so it’s been a month since they want to Road in Rich sends one deep to left center field and doar in Pursuit he won’t get there and it one hops the ball Lis is home and it’s two nothing Diamond Backs oh what a nice hit that was that ball just shot off his Bat and just perfectly placed out to left center field nobody’s going to catch it and who are stopped that ball just hit right on the track bounced over B HS by three the first five two of them doubles two runs home and a chance for fast ball did he go no on a peel down to first and that’s a two out walk time to get out there Scot Emerson the pitching coach Orban carols in Center Field tonight Orbin on a nice consistent offensive run earlier this month he’s got a chance to pad this two nothing lead with gritch at second and tuarez at first swing at a Miss got him on a sweeper away and the inning is over but Arizona strikes first two runs on three hits here’s a guy that’s become quite a story in Oakland Armando Alvarez a 29-year-old rookie he’ll be 30 next month and there it is slider swung on and missed and the inning is over Sone strikes out the side in this inning Sone at 61 pitches right now and you start to dive into who he becomes pitches 51 through 75 hitters are hitting 385 against Sone so if there’s going to be a mistake there’s a good chance it’s coming right now and if you’re the Athletics would love to jump all over it Rooker ground ball that’s through for a hit goff’s going to be waved home he will score and Brent Rooker a two out Knock puts the A’s on the board in the top of the third inning it’s two to one two out knocks get you to heaven St Peter get your pad ready got another name for you that’s Brent Rooker again you’ve seen Sone this at bat try to work that slider down and out this one just stays up Rooker able to pull it through that six hole 30 pitch inning thus far in the third exactly what the A’s want to start off the series against Arizona we’ve already had an embattled starting staff and Bullpen if you can get to them early with two more games left to play you have the advantage little flare into right field gritch comes in he will let it drop on duar comes into to score and langers a soft Fly ball into right lands this game is tied and some two out knocks from three and four bring this game level couple of quality two outed bats right now by the Athletics Langer’s hands might be ringing a bit caught this slider off the end Rich it closing neither guy was going to have a play hit it where they ain’t well it’s not only the second time through but it’s another inning in which things get awfully hairy for saone and that would be the fourth inning you thought the 5.73 erra in the third inning was something to pay attention to how about an erra of 10 in the fourth so right here right now if you’re the Athletics is when you jump all over saone and get him out of their 80 pitches now let’s see what Max Schuman has after striking out last inning Fly ball to Centerfield they well Carol On The Move long way to go Carol will make the over theh shoulder catch on the Run tagging and scoring as Alvarez it’s 32 Oakland what a play by Corbin Carroll had a long way to go makes the over the shoulder grab so Schuman picks up the sacrifice fly in his 14th RBI of the year the second consecutive game he’s picked up the sacrifice fly but the a have their first lead of the night it’s 3 to2 lorda scuel Jr leads off in the bottom of the sixth inning A’s in front three to2 swinging a high deep drive out to left field guel ties it with a no doubter 11th of the year and we’re all square at three finally the Dbacks caught up with one of those fast balls that was a little bit up in the zone nuriel quick with his hand hands and he just drills this ball what a beautiful swing watching that from the side oh just annihilated it this is not a position I imagine Mark Kat wanted to be in with catel Marte up there chance to give the Diamondbacks the lead catel base hit Diamondbacks have the lead the allstar has done it again Tyler srom over for three with three strikeouts leads it off for Oakland swinging a Fly ball to deep left back goes guel to the track at the wall and out of goes for Tyler soderstrom and he ties the game at four know Zack gof is feeling it right now has walked scored stolen a base single twice line drive into right center field that’s going to roll and roll some more it’s going to hit off the wall around third comes Alvarez gof streaking around second Alvarez scores gof Dives in safely and the A’s have their one-run lead back booken strikeouts for Schuman had a sacrific fly to Center Chopper is short it’s over pero gelof scores Schuman a base hit and Ma Schuman propels the A’s to a six to4 Advantage six to four the A’s lead Brent Rooker is up for a fifth time and Rooker sends a charge to center field Carol going back he’s going to look up it’s off the batter ey Brett Rooker unloads on a pitch and now it’s a three-run lead for the eight well the bees might be gone but the buzz is back and now langers laces one out of the ballpark backto back Rooker and langers it’s now 8 to four the a have been swept seven total times this year so starting off right against an Arizona club that you can capitalize on some of their injuries and them not being at full strength is a very good thing oh yeah now a high drive deep to left field make it three in the inning the Das Manan devil gets involved in the fun it’s 9 to4 Oakland now if Mason Miller is in the All-Star game which all signs point that he will be this could be a matchup we see in the future Fly ball to Center this should do it bde calls everyone off makes the catch and the reaper secures a victory in the valley the A’s get their first win of the road trip winning 9-4
