41-year-old Charlie Morton has gotten
0:03
off to a miserable start for the
0:05
Orioles, but he has really bounced back
0:07
the last month. His first nine starts
0:09
was 0 and7 with an erra almost 10. His
0:14
last seven starts after he went to the
0:16
bullpen. He's 5-0 with an erra under
0:19
three.
0:19
Brandon NMO leads off first pitch by
0:21
Morton. Hit on the ground toward the
0:22
middle of the diamond and that's going
0:23
to sneak through for a base hit on the
0:25
very first pitch of the game. And that's
0:27
how Brandon NMO's 1,000th major league
0:30
game begins.
0:31
Lindor walks and the Mets have first and
0:33
second. Nobody out. And Juan Sodto
0:37
coming up.
0:39
And that one goes off the mid of
0:40
Stallins to the back stop. And on the
0:42
pass ball, the Mets have runners at
0:44
second and third.
0:46
Another breaking ball. Morton gets him.
0:48
One out for Alonzo.
0:51
There it is. There's a curveball on 3-2.
0:54
And after the Mets put two in scoring
0:56
position, Morton strikes out one. Sodto
0:59
and Petalonzo. And now he's got a chance
1:01
to get through the inning. And a
1:04
breaking ball is popped up. Vasquez back
1:07
from short with the early call. Luis
1:09
Vasquez makes the catch. Boy, second and
1:12
third, nobody out against Sodto Alonzo
1:14
and Winker. That's some Houdini stuff.
1:16
David Peterson is coming off a really
1:18
good start last time out against
1:20
Milwaukee after a couple of rough ones.
1:22
He really bounced back and pitched a big
1:24
game.
1:25
Jackson Holiday. And here's a young
1:26
lefthander, Ben, who's really started to
1:28
look more and more comfortable against
1:30
lefties of late.
1:32
Slider in and Holiday punches it up the
1:34
middle. So, it wasn't a fast ball, but
1:37
Peterson threw it in Jackson's sweet
1:39
spot. So, quickly there are two out
1:41
after the leadoff hit by Holiday.
1:43
Tyler O'Neal the cleanup man for game
1:45
one. And he pops up a first pitch
1:47
curveball. Lonzo into foul ground right
1:50
to the railing. reaches and he got it.
1:53
Had just enough webbing to pull it in.
1:56
Nicely done by Alonzo and it winds up
1:58
being a six pitch inning for Peterson.
2:00
Francisco Drew walk his first time up.
2:04
That's line the other way. A base hit
2:05
for Lindor.
2:07
Sodto chops one slowly. Holiday comes in
2:10
to get it and bobles it and makes the
2:12
backhand flip. Not in time.
2:14
Sodto just able to beat that play. He
2:16
was half stepping it to first base. And
2:18
boy, if Sodto had to have been out, that
2:21
was very close.
2:22
That would have been a not a good
2:25
visual. Now you got Pete to deal with.
2:27
Oh, two.
2:29
Fast ball to short. Vasquez on a knee.
2:31
Vasquez bounces it to first. It's time.
2:35
What a play. That is so good right
2:37
there. What a play by the shortstop
2:40
Vasquez.
2:41
Here's Jacob Stallings. And Stallings
2:43
goes down swinging on the back foot
2:45
slider. And there's the first strike out
2:47
of the day for Peterson. So he's now in
2:49
the top 10 among men lefties. His 552nd
2:53
career strikeout. Here's Jackson Holiday
2:56
with a base hit. His first time up and
2:57
two coming. Swing and a foul tip. Held
3:00
on to by Torren for strike three. So
3:02
backto-back strikeouts for Peterson to
3:04
end the third. Mark Vientos is batting
3:06
for Jesse Winker in the DH spot. Winker,
3:09
who just came back on Tuesday from more
3:11
than two months on the injured list with
3:13
an oblique injury, is out of the game
3:15
after one at bat.
3:18
And Ventos looks like the right choice
3:20
is pitch hitter, but Lauriano takes it
3:23
away just shy of the wall and left.
3:25
We're told back tightness for Jesse
3:27
Winker and that's why he came out after
3:30
one of Jordan Westber the batter.
3:33
Oh, swinging a line drive base hit left
3:35
field. There you go. And here's Ramon
3:36
Lauraniano.
3:38
Little looper over Batty's head. He goes
3:40
back. Can't get it. Base hit. Around
3:42
second comes Westber who's going to fire
3:44
for third. The throw by Taylor on a hop
3:46
and he is out. Tyrone Taylor guns him
3:49
down. Tyrone charging that ball extra
3:52
hard going to his glove side and then
3:56
spinning and firing a strike on one hop
3:58
to third base.
3:59
And now a two away. Loriano stands at
4:02
third base.
4:03
That's drilled to left. On comes NMO and
4:06
he makes the catch. A bullet off the bat
4:08
of Aras and NMO going into a slide and
4:12
making the grab to get Peterson through
4:14
the fourth. Batty leads off in the fifth
4:16
against Charlie Morton. 3-2 to Batty.
4:19
Two high. Ball four. This time the Mets
4:20
have had the leadoff man on since the
4:22
first inning.
4:23
He's going curve ball for a strike. The
4:26
throw to second is not in time and
4:28
Batty's got a stolen base. Two and two
4:30
to Taylor and that's rifled down the
4:32
right field line. That's going to go
4:34
into the corner for extra bases. By
4:37
score the first run of the game, Taylor
4:39
stops at second base with an RBI double.
4:42
Tyrone Taylor in the depths of a slump.
4:44
Drives one the other way to get the
4:47
first run of the game home. It's one-
4:48
nothing New York. Just his third hit in
4:51
his last 43 at bats. And it snapped at 0
4:55
for 17 for Taylor. Elindor is coming up
4:59
in the air to left. Lauriano settles
5:02
under it, makes the catch, and Taylor
5:04
retreats to second on out number two.
5:07
They have decided to walk Sodto.
5:09
Well, it gives Alonzo an opportunity
5:12
with two out and two on. And Pete's been
5:14
big in this situation.
5:18
Well, it looks like he's going to get a
5:19
righty out here as Alonzo flies to
5:22
right. So, the Mets get a run. Ran two
5:25
more. They've left six now. Facing the
5:27
lefty Cowser and a fast ball got him
5:30
looking. Third strike out for Peterson.
5:33
Cowser was not looking for the fast.
5:35
Kobe Mayo the righty.
5:36
Two coming on the outside corner. Got
5:38
him looking. Second call. Third strike
5:40
in the inning for Peterson. Mark Bentos
5:43
up for the second time. Gets that
5:45
breaking ball and lines it into left
5:47
center for a base hit. Cut off deep by
5:49
Lauriano. Bentos going to try for
5:51
second. Lauraniano's got a great arm.
5:53
Bentos is safe at second base. So
5:56
Vietentos after hitting the ball solidly
5:58
his first time out this time finds the
6:00
gap and he's got himself a leadoff
6:02
double.
6:03
Mauricio who's grounded out and fly out.
6:05
Two two.
6:07
There you go.
6:08
Finally the good hook.
6:10
Ren's been up twice. Grounded out both
6:11
times.
6:14
Looped into left by Ten. Lauraniano
6:17
slides into it. Another fantastic play
6:21
from Lauraniano. Got the lefty up in the
6:23
bullpen, but it looks like they're
6:24
leaving Morton in to face Matty.
6:27
Another 3-2 breaking ball. You see
6:31
good enough for Jansen Biscanti strikes
6:34
on and Morton strands another runner at
6:36
second.
6:37
David Peterson with 64 pitches. Deals to
6:40
Jacob Stalin.
6:40
There's a base knock.
6:42
How about that?
6:43
Now Jackson Holidayiday is going to see
6:45
David Pearson for the third time.
6:47
And a weak cut right in front of the
6:49
plate. Torren goes to second. gets the
6:51
out there.
6:51
Nice.
6:52
Nicely done by Torren.
6:54
So Westber will bat left on right.
6:56
Holiday a much bigger lead on the snap
6:58
throw. He got him.
7:00
Oh, Peterson led that perfectly. Holiday
7:03
after one throw over took an extra step
7:05
and a half on his lead at Peterson guns
7:07
him down. That's his third pickoff of
7:09
the year, the 18th of his career.
7:12
Holiday got a little frisky on his lead.
7:16
Out to right center. Taylor back in the
7:17
gap with Sodto and Taylor makes the
7:20
catch and then rams into Sodto who was
7:22
preparing to catch it as well. Fortunate
7:24
that Tyrone was able to hang on. Sodto
7:27
got it right in the chops. Now David
7:29
Peterson is the only Met in the last
7:31
month. Only Met starter to throw a pitch
7:34
in the seventh inning or at least get an
7:36
out in the seventh inning. And here he
7:38
is again in the seventh. And O'Neal goes
7:41
down swinging on the curve ball. Two men
7:43
down. So two out and nobody on. And now
7:45
Ramon Rias. Now he's 0 and two on Aras
7:49
and he struck him half. Wow. Threw a
7:52
fast ball by him. Six strikeouts for
7:54
Peterson and he's through seven
7:56
scoreless innings. Now the Mets try and
7:58
get him some cushion. Leading one-
7:59
nothing as we start the eighth. Grant
8:01
Wolram starts his second inning of
8:03
relief facing Sodto who's 0 for two with
8:05
an intentional walk.
8:07
Wow. How about that? How about that?
8:10
Grant Wolram just took out Juan Sodto.
8:13
as Wol from peers in delivers and a
8:15
swing and a miss. Curve ball gets the
8:18
polar bear with two out and now Vientos
8:21
and he loops that one behind second
8:23
that's going to fall for a base hit. So
8:26
now Mauricio will bat right-handed for
8:28
the first time today. Ronnie's just two
8:30
for 17 as a right-hand batter.
8:33
Struck out Mauricio.
8:35
Three strikeouts in the inning. Mark the
8:38
moon Grant Wolf. Now David Peterson out
8:42
for the eighth inning. Colton Cowser
8:44
first man to face Peterson in the bottom
8:46
of the eighth inning.
8:48
Hey, Cowzer shoots a ball past third.
8:50
It's a leadoff base hit. That's going to
8:52
be all for Peterson. So David got one
8:55
batter in the eighth inning and he's
8:57
pulled after 90 pitches. And Brian
9:00
Stannic will come on in relief. And as
9:02
expected, Tony Vanselino goes right to
9:04
his left-handed bench and he'll send up
9:06
Gunnar Henderson to bat for Luis
9:08
Vasquez.
9:10
Henderson to deep right field. Sodto
9:13
gives it a look, but only a look.
9:16
Orioles lead and a pitch. Gunnar
9:19
Henderson off the bench onto the flag
9:23
court. That's Gunnar Hender shot is what
9:26
that is cuz that was a moon ball right
9:29
there, folks. Tony Manelino pushing all
9:31
the right buttons for the Orioles.
9:33
Brings it Henderson a two-run shot. And
9:35
here in the eighth inning, the Orioles a
9:37
two to one lead.
9:39
Well, her goes to second, one out.
9:40
Orioles would love one more on the
9:42
scoreboard right here.
9:45
Pickoff throw at second is late on ball
9:49
four. And here's Jordan Westbird. 3-2
9:52
inside. Another walk. That's three in
9:55
the inning.
9:55
And a golden opportunity here for the
9:57
Orioles to add on. Don't need a base hit
9:59
to score a run. The sackfly works.
10:02
First pitch line to right. Sodto
10:04
retreats, makes the play. O'Harn tags
10:06
from third. Holiday tags from second.
10:10
Sacrifice fly by Lauraniano. It's a
10:12
three-run eight and a 3-1 lead. O'Neal
10:15
takes it high. Ball four and the bases
10:17
once again are loaded. Fourth walk of
10:19
the inning. And that's going to be the
10:20
end of the line for Ryan Stanning. And
10:22
Austin Warren will come in and try and
10:24
mop it up. Maria's got jammed and popped
10:27
it up on the infield and Alonzo takes
10:29
charge of it to retire the side. It's
10:31
now 3-1 as Felix Bautista takes over the
10:34
night.
10:35
Time to turn them clocks back to
10:37
mountain time. Felix Bautista making his
10:39
34th appearance of the of the year
10:41
looking for save number 18.
10:43
Well, two terrific at bats by Torren and
10:47
Batty. But the Mets are down to their
10:49
final out with Jeff McNeel coming up the
10:51
pitch.
10:53
In the air to left, Colton Cowser, who
10:56
led off the eighth inning rally with a
10:58
single, ends the game in a 3-1 win for
11:01
the Orioles
11:03
through choppy waters. Smooth sailing in
11:06
the ninth on Yacht Rock Day. 3-1 final.
