0:00
He has chased a lot this year as we just
0:02
saw and right there as well. So on Q
0:05
there is Kirby's first strikeout this
0:08
Three balls, two strikes, two outs,
0:10
runner at second base. Strike three
0:13
called bottom of the zone and he got
0:19
Kirby's two-2. He put him away. His
0:22
first strike out tonight. Four. Just a
0:24
little below average.
0:27
Tried to hold back and cannot. 90. I
0:29
think the uh that's a tough one to
0:33
Swinging a miss upstairs
0:35
for your son. It's shocking how much
0:39
batting gloves cost. So when I was in
0:41
the minor leagues, we used to have
0:46
really got him coming up empty on a
0:51
he got him. fast ball at the top of the
0:53
zone back to the inning that's coming as
0:56
opposed to being on the bench sometimes
0:57
and maybe you get caught up in what's
1:00
time in his career RA 8 and a half
1:04
and he has a good first inning he
1:15
he's not hit many here though just four
1:17
at Angel Stadium and he strikes out
1:23
and he gets strike three called there.
1:25
So Taylor goes down looking one of those
1:27
hits extra base hits as King strikes out
1:39
done so far this year is unreal. That's
1:41
what I can't figure out how he made
1:43
these improvements, but he has had a
1:49
And that is a called strike three.
1:52
Two border the Mariner franchise.
1:57
That is a strike to Taylor on the
1:59
outside corner. He also tied Raphael
2:05
who's in town tomorrow. Strike three
2:08
called here. And it's the He's an
2:09
all-star that year. Yes, he was.
2:14
whips on that. George Kirby has
2:19
a strike. The 12th strike out for Kirby
2:25
another 3-2 coming. And it's in there
2:35
That is strike three called. 14
2:38
strikeouts for to Jose Ramirez from
2:42
and he got him. A slider just
2:46
Kirby on a 2-2. He got him. Put him away
2:50
with a good breaking ball.
2:53
Kirby's one-two. He got him swinging.
2:58
02 from Kirby and he got him on three
3:01
pitches. Oh, he just got a piece. That
3:15
Struck him out and Swanson is gone.
3:18
Starting pitching erra in baseball last
3:28
swing and a miss on the Twins left
3:34
And there's 97. And Bader knew it. So
3:36
back-to-back strikeouts for the past.
3:40
And the one-two pitch. And that is on
3:42
the outside corner for strike three.
3:49
on the corner. Pitchers pitch. George
3:51
Kirby. His first. The injured list. A
3:56
Wave a miss as he goes chasing after
3:58
that slide. Main stay in Mariners
4:00
broadcasting. I mean, look at this guy.
4:01
Yeah, he's got his own TV show, How to
4:04
Speak Australian. I've
4:09
swing and a miss. You got him to chase
4:28
Swing and a miss on a pitch right over
4:30
the plate that Kirby's
4:35
swing and a miss and a good bolt up
4:37
above the zone at 90 in this series.
4:46
there is another strike out for Kurt
4:48
that cast era right from an outfielder
4:50
has to be in the conversation at least
4:52
swinging a miss at 97 up and away. Four
5:00
Swing and a miss. Kirby cooking early.
5:02
He strikes out the side.
5:07
Counter left to second. A swing and a
5:09
miss for another strike out from George
5:13
this guy, this guy, this guy, he just
5:14
rattled him off. I'm like, man, really?
5:17
Swing and a miss on a back foot breaking
5:19
ball. Eight strikeout for George.
5:26
The weak wave and a miss. George Kirby
5:35
Knuckle curve got him. That was a range
5:38
of that curve ball. It's one of the
5:39
toughest pitches to hit in the game. And
5:42
he just stayed. Sliders and curve balls.
5:45
It's a four pitch mix to lefties.
5:50
He's going to hold that before he takes
5:56
Freeze is torqued and after the
6:08
pitch number nine to Ortiz. He puts him
6:10
away with a fast ball down and in that.
6:16
Swing and a miss. A curve ball.
6:21
Hey, struck him out on a breaking ball.
6:28
Swing and a miss. 90.
6:34
Looks like a foul tip for strike three.
6:36
It might have been ball four, but trap
6:42
and he strikes out here. Was all pitch
6:48
strike out on the fast ball. This will
6:50
be number 10 coming to Ward.
6:53
And it's in there for strike three. Two
6:56
and two. A swing and a miss as Kirby
7:05
Lord strikes out. Let me think a little
7:07
bit about what pitch may be coming.
7:10
A swing and a miss on a high fast ball.
7:16
He got him. George Kirby unleashes a
7:23
3-2 again and he tied him up with a
7:29
02 pitch swing and a miss.
7:33
Back door even giggle. Yeah.
7:38
Bound right back and Cal Raleigh makes
7:41
the squeeze on it. Third
7:42
down the stretch of this season.
7:50
That was back on July 4th.
7:53
Swing and a miss as that one darted
7:56
Sure that'll be great for him the rest
8:00
Right side to make sure that front side
8:12
The way this Mariners team playing and
8:13
it seems like they have that in their
8:21
He struck him out. Huge punch out from
8:26
A one two swing and a miss and a high
8:33
Got him. 96 up and in.
8:36
10 more. I mean that is just absolutely
8:40
incredible. And I and I also think
8:42
because he had so much success here, if
8:45
guess next time up you might wear a bow
8:51
throwing that a lot more. He went away
8:53
from that pitch tonight and instead
8:55
we've seen him lean on that knuckle
8:58
In fact, we always heard about the arm
9:02
Strike three. Not the usual pinpoint
9:04
command today, but still nine up and
9:06
nine down. Make it 10. Well, he saw
9:09
looking for the final out here in the
9:11
and he's going to get it. He strikes out
9:14
over is I have to leave all of these
9:16
guys in this place better than I found
9:19
That's something that since the trade
9:21
the Astros had been on a long road trip.
9:24
Strike three running two seamer
9:30
and there is the two seamer
9:36
It won't be needed. Their service
9:38
once again the infield shifted with
9:40
Suarez and Crawford up the middle.
9:43
That's a good pitch. A 94th walk. That's
9:45
more than anybody in baseball. He's off
9:47
first and NMO swings and misses.
9:50
The combination even at this age of
9:53
nationalism in sport is a really really
9:56
powerful thing. Neck when I was like 10
9:59
years old and then after that I said no
10:06
97 middle in strike three called.
10:16
out number two. Payoff to Schneean
10:21
Swinging a miss and a high for Seamer
10:25
and third. Two outs. Kirby's 3-2. Hey,
10:30
got him. puts him away with a slider and
10:32
Naylor strikes out. Kirby strikes out
10:35
That's the first error tonight against
10:39
Capus swings and misses. Fourth strike
10:44
pitches or less certainly helps.
10:50
Yep, that slider tonight is
10:57
And Williams is out on strikes.
11:05
Well, that is paint.
11:08
Mariners a chance to get into first
11:10
place all alone. Swing and a miss. 99
11:13
from Georgia. One out. Nobody on. Kirby
11:16
on a two- two. He slows it down. The
11:20
curveball gets a punch.
11:22
It's a lot of pressure being a
11:25
There is out number two.
11:28
Oh, you know what's what time it is.
11:31
This is a special time for every Major
11:33
League Baseball player being in a pennet
11:36
race. Another home run. I was going from
11:39
the stadium to the parking garage and
11:42
people were like nobody was walking. It
11:44
was in former pitcher of mine all the
11:46
way through the minor leagues was on the
11:47
mound for the Angels.
11:49
Wow. This fast ball today from Kirby is
11:54
Kirby's 2-2 coming swing and a miss 97
12:01
phenomenal 13 strikeout performance
12:05
96 upper outside corner strikeout
12:13
rack them up another strike out and not
12:15
a surprise another he
12:17
and I will try not to offend
12:21
strike three call. Strike out number 10.
12:24
George Ker with still a little ways to
12:26
go in this game. I I think one of the
12:28
most stressful things for a manager as
12:30
there's another strike out the 11th from
12:38
strike three called a dozen today for
12:43
Kirby lets it loose. Strike three call.
12:47
What a way to end a magnificent day
12:54
now. Paradeus down on the fast ball.
12:56
That'll be the first strike out for Kir
12:58
September. And that's why they're where
13:02
Sanchez down on strikes. Kirby picks up
13:04
his second strikeout. The Guardians
13:07
could win for the 15th time in 16 games.
13:11
That's a strike. Wow. What is going on
13:14
going early in innings? Yanner Diaz the
13:16
only leadoff hit in the first two games
13:19
of the series. And another strike out on
13:26
That's right there. That's called third
13:34
down on strikes as Kirby picks ninth
13:41
Got him. Kirby wins that battle.
13:45
90 wins on the season.
13:51
Title just yesterday.
14:00
Swing and a miss. George.
14:06
Swing and a miss. Four.
14:12
Got a swing and a miss that time. One
14:14
away. Spoke to him the other day about
14:26
95 up out of the zone.
14:28
I mean, you you try and get creative
14:29
during a 162 game season.
14:39
He goes around. Ninth strike.
15:07
two two to McKinstry. It is waved down
15:09
and missed to use the slider that time.
15:12
That's how you end up with 36 homers.
15:16
There's the slider low though and he
15:18
missed that one. Kirby gets his six
15:20
inning. His first game since
15:21
midseptember after that intercostal
15:23
strain. He goes and chases a change up.
15:28
He's got McKinstry set up and he gets
15:30
him to swing and miss on a slider.
15:33
Kirby to Metos. Two two delivery on the
15:36
way. Call strike three. He drives.
15:47
Just one for 13 in his career against
15:55
Carpenter goes payoff pitch. He got him.
16:01
Nothing Seattle and a 3-2 to Dingler.
16:12
And the right-handers. One, two on the
16:14
way to Torqulson. And here she comes.
16:16
Swing and a miss. Strike three. Got him.
16:18
Throwing 24 consecutive strikes. He
16:22
begins his game with two quick out.
16:24
Seven runs per game that weekend.
16:28
Swing and a miss and backto-back K. So
16:30
Guerrero's at second with two out in a
16:32
first inning chance for Anthony
16:36
hits in the last four bats.
16:38
Pitchers across space bar saying reach
16:40
into the choir buddy. It ain't personal.
16:42
Trust him. So too many options can be
16:45
enticing. Baro's down on strikes with
16:51
On the eighth pitch, Kirk swings and
