There was always this belief in Matthew
0:03
Boy and it's paid off now and I know
0:05
Craig Council felt great about telling
0:07
him you're going to Atlanta.
0:09
We had a 203year-old allstar and now we
0:13
have a first time 34y old allstar Matt
0:15
Boy.
0:19
You had an unbelievable first half and
0:22
it's been fun for all of us to watch.
0:24
Get to watch you take the mount today.
0:26
Do your thing. Uh I'm proud of you.
0:30
to Donovan 18 career leadoff homers for
0:33
a guy that has made his first Allstar
0:35
team and Donovan will ground one to the
0:38
second baseman Horner and a slider for
0:41
one up good played appearance good at
0:43
bat for Mason Win who draws the walk
0:45
plenty of room between BCH and her and
0:47
that's where that ball is hitting so her
0:49
has to go way over fires
0:52
in time he put it to the one place that
0:55
a slow roller would result in an infield
0:57
hit. Two on, one out, no score. Top of
1:00
the first.
1:01
And he reached for it and he couldn't
1:03
get it. A filthy slider for his first
1:05
strike out of the night. And second out
1:08
of the inning. Big open stance for here
1:10
it comes. And he chased way outside.
1:13
They had a chance the Cardinals to get
1:15
him early and they couldn't. Backto back
1:18
punch out
1:18
and that's out number two. And Tucker
1:20
has to hold at second base. Let's see if
1:22
Pete Crow Armstrong can drive in the
1:24
game's first run. Here's the line drive.
1:26
base set to left. Tucker's going to
1:28
score. The throw goes to second. Cubs
1:30
lead one to nothing. Pete Bro Armstrong
1:34
delivers.
1:35
The All-Star delivers his 67th RBI to
1:38
make it one- nothing Chicago.
1:40
Give Pete Pro Armstrong a lot of credit.
1:42
First pitch, a seat change up, but he
1:44
allows it to travel. Yeah, there's some
1:45
intangibles in there, too. I mean, it's
1:47
hard to sort of, you know, quantify
1:49
deception. A lot of analytics
1:51
departments are trying to figure a
1:53
formula for that, but he's definitely
1:54
got it.
1:57
That's three strikeouts in a row now for
1:59
Matthew Boyd.
2:01
You know, again, we tend to look at a 95
2:03
mph fast as I guess major league
2:05
averageish nowadays. It's still a good
2:07
fast one.
2:08
So JC at second, one away. Cubs lead one
2:11
to nothing second inning. Pedro Pahes,
2:13
the batter.
2:14
Now a 3-2
2:16
that slow change up to get him and he
2:19
picks up his fourth strike out of the
2:21
night. I'm walking back to the dugout
2:22
saying he abused him on that pitch after
2:26
the slider down and in. He's thinking,
2:28
"Okay, has to come with a fast." He's
2:30
got two strikeouts this inning, four in
2:32
the game. And he's ready on a one-two to
2:34
Hampton
2:36
is gone. That's his third of the inning.
2:39
He's got five and a wor to perfection.
2:41
Outside ball four. They're loaded with
2:44
Kyle Tucker do up. Oliver Marmal to the
2:47
mound. And I think that's going to be
2:48
all for Eric Fetty.
2:50
King Tuck. Kyle Tucker up a 264 hitter
2:53
against lefties. And the Cardinals have
2:54
gone to the lefty John King. And that's
2:57
going back and into center field. It
3:00
brings in her Shaw follows him to third
3:04
goes half and the King delivers. Kyle
3:08
Tucker brings in two. It's three nothing
3:10
Cubs. 53 and 54. runs batted in as Boyd
3:15
back on the first man he faces Brendan
3:18
Donovan
3:20
in on the grass. This one is pulled.
3:22
It's smothered by corner but he couldn't
3:24
come up with it and likely wasn't going
3:27
to have much of a play. Win was great in
3:29
two strike counts last year with 80 hits
3:32
and he's gone. Win 93 with a four seam
3:35
fast for a punch out. Six of the game
3:39
for Matthew Boyd. Contrera smokes this
3:42
one left center field. Pro Armstrong.
3:45
He's there to run it down and he made it
3:48
look easy. That's what every Scott will
3:52
tell you about him growing up. Man, he
3:54
glides to the baseball and the wind also
3:57
helped keep it in the park and blow it
3:59
back towards him.
4:01
Big swing and a miss. He came back
4:03
inside with a four seam fast ball. He
4:06
strikes up for the second time. He's
4:08
gets seven punch outs. In the second, 0
4:11
for one. Lefty, lefty match up with King
4:14
on the hill. He sets up, works his
4:16
motion and deals. Maguire lines one into
4:19
Reagan drops in for a base hit. Buff
4:21
score. Swansson stops at third. RBI
4:24
single for Maguire. And the Cubs extend
4:27
the lead. Four to nothing now over St.
4:29
Louis here in the third. Now, Cardinals
4:33
manager Oliver Marl is going to make
4:35
another pitching change.
4:36
The Cardinals have thrown 81 pitches in
4:39
this inning. and do not have an out in
4:41
the third inning.
4:43
Chopped to third. Fielded on a high hop
4:44
by Saji. His throw home is wide. Swanson
4:48
scores and the Cubs extend the lead. Now
4:51
up five to nothing over St. Louis. Bases
4:54
still loaded. No one out here in the
4:57
third and the Cubs have already played
4:58
it two in this frame.
5:00
The one strike pitch is grounded to the
5:01
right side and that's going to be
5:04
handled by Contraras. He tags the runner
5:07
going down to first base. They call him
5:09
out. And that the Cubs may complain
5:11
about that as Contrarus asked for time.
5:13
Here comes Craig Councel. He doesn't
5:15
like that call. He was called out of the
5:18
baseline. Hap was I thought he was
5:20
tagged anyway. I thought he was too. The
5:22
call was actually that he was out of the
5:24
baseline. It scores another run at the
5:26
very least for the Cubs. And it's now 6
5:29
nothing Cubs.
5:30
Tucker waits the pitch and a line drive
5:33
hit to center field. Racing over into
5:35
right center and making a sliding catch.
5:37
Hamson tagging and coming home is
5:40
Maguire. It's now 7 nothing Cubs after
5:43
the sacrifice fly by Kyle Tucker. Cubs
5:46
have built up a nice sevenun lead. The
5:49
inning not over yet. Two down a man at
5:51
third and the big RBI guy on the team.
5:53
Seiya Suzuki stepping in.
5:56
Sei lines one down the left field line.
5:58
It'll drop in and roll all the way to
6:00
the wall. Shaw comes in. Suzuki on his
6:03
way to second. Big turn there, but he'll
6:05
stop. RBI double for Seiya Suzuki. And
6:09
the Cubs lead 8 to nothing here in the
6:12
third for Seiya. That's RBI number 76 on
6:15
the season. Matthew Boyd on the hill for
6:18
the Cubs. He's thrown 62 pitches over
6:20
the first three innings. He's given up
6:22
three hits.
6:25
That is another strike out. And a good
6:27
start to this inning. He picks up his
6:29
eighth punch out.
6:32
And he too going Matthew Boyd. A one,
6:35
two, three. His first of the night comes
6:38
here in the fourth.
6:39
Swanson at first. Swanson on the mound.
6:42
Nico her at the plate.
6:44
And that's a fair ball pass the guy to
6:47
JC and it's going to get all the way
6:48
into the corner. Swanson a good base
6:50
runner will easily come all the way in
6:53
and that is going to be a Nicoer triple.
6:56
Tell you this, two guys that can hit FO
6:59
really well. Dancy Swanson and Nico
7:02
putting up big numbers.
7:05
High chopper that will get the run in
7:09
and win will throw out Magguire. Say
7:11
Suzuki's got to be in Atlanta, doesn't
7:13
he? He's an allstar. First half of the
7:15
season's been phenomenal. Another run
7:18
batted in tonight.
7:18
How about a late entry into the home run
7:20
contest, too?
7:21
Okay.
7:21
He gets named.
7:22
Yep.
7:24
Smokes this one to right center
7:27
and it is gone.
7:30
We are down.
7:33
Sea Suzuki.
7:35
Another homer. Another RBI. And another
7:39
reason to get him in the home run derby.
7:41
My work here is done.
7:44
This is my campaign for Sey Suzuki to
7:46
make the All-Star game cuz I think it's
7:48
absolutely ridiculous that he hasn't
7:49
been named one yet. We still got a week.
7:51
So, thank you guys.
7:53
25 homers, 77 runs batted in. exit stage
7:57
right on a Coney mic drop call to get
8:00
him into a home run derby as well.
8:02
And that's out number two. Cardinals
8:04
down to their last chance.
8:07
Valencia induces the popup. Fittingly,
8:11
Pete Cro Armstrong nearly on the infield
8:14
there to make the play and seal the Cubs
8:17
54th win of the year against only 36
8:22
losses.
