Cubs vs. Pirates Game Highlights | 9/3/24

Cubs back home. They have won six in a row coming off an eight-and-one road trip Offense offense and more offense is fun to watch. Yeah, this is what it looks like Oh, I'm just about the whole lineup gets hot team OPS over that stretch of 927 is Incredible we take a look at JMO 292 era era here at Wrigley Field this year lately The work has not been quite as sharp four or more runs allowed in each of his last four starts In the air right fielder Bellinger wait One up and one down on the ground right at Niko Tyone works his motion high leg kick and pitch Cruz bounces one on the right side fielded on the outfield grass by Horner slings For the first baseman Bush for out number three And that's that a one two three inning for Jamison Tyone to begin the ballgame We head to the last of the first see Jared's just the 17 starts. He's been quite a while on the aisle Swinging a pop-up into that evening sky who wants it. It's gonna be the shortstop Alika Williams there tonight on the right side of the diamond Thanks to catch one out There's Alika Williams two outs three two coming strike three call a delayed decision and Suzuki strikes out looking to end the inning We're through one from Chicago something to pay attention to with Jamison Tyone his lower back after the first half inning He went down into the dugout with trainers after the second inning trainers came up with a back brace heating up his back So looks like they're trying to keep his back loose I'll be Jared Triolo to lead it off checks in to tonight's action at 204 with six home runs And a good start as Jared Triolo singles may be off the glove of the diving third baseman a sock parade ace Triolo had two hits in three at bats off Tyone last Monday Including a triple and a single and RBI ground out. Alika Williams getting a started short today That one hit in the air out towards right center. He's able to double the runner off a first PCA With his momentum taking him towards the first baseline that throw kind of tailed on him a little bit a little Frustrated with himself You're not sure exactly how to play this one makes it pretty much all the way to second base second and third two outs Let's see if Ryan Reynolds can take advantage of this now the 1-1 a Bouncing ball to third backing up fielding Paredes sidearm throw to first this time on Target to get Reynolds for out number three and the Pirates leave two in scoring position middle three Parker with us here in the booth. How are you, buddy? I'm good. How are you real good? you know you won this and your call was Amazing. I did not tell you that before. I thought it was absolutely amazing Yeah we're just sitting on the couch and I was like man that was a nuke so let's and then you see a commercial and Me and my dad went out to the garage and Dansby swats it'll touch him all and it's one nothing The left field corner Dansby catches this one a little bit off the end of the bat But not totally and hits it in about the second row and straight left field big Swing in the bat for the Cubs and Dansby Swanson. What was it like playing catch with PCA? It's so fun. You like I've done it before with Palencia Oh, we're out in the bleachers and it's just like fun to it's to react with the baseball player playing catch It's like a dream come true. My has been doing pretty good lately and a swing and a miss Parker Are you familiar with the concept of the broadcaster jinx? You ever heard that like if a broadcaster we start talking somebody's great great great then they make an out Something like that the opposite happens So welcome you just talking about how good of my has been and he just struck out So welcome you join me. Just join the club Parker. Don't listen to him He's trying to say it's your fault and there are two aboard two away and he had a half to up with two away Bounces that once get a score to as he's done so often here lately jumping on that first pitch and doing so effectively a little Cutter whacked into the right field corner child has been Excellent here and the pitch Swing and a miss strike three as Tyone gets McCutchen with the fastball Three nothing the Cubs lead one out and a man in scoring position for Jared Triolo and here it is Austin Bush makes a play Gets over Michael Bush gorgeous play a tough hop and a nice rangy play by Bush now Henry Davis Popped up foul territory off to the right Jamison Tyone makes a running grab halfway between home and first in foul territory for out number three Just like that pirates with the threat here in the eight pirates have gone 21 Consecutive innings without an extra base hit so they are overdue My ball left center field deep toward the wall and clear that old Anchor down B Ray ties it with his 22nd home run goes opposite field I don't have to worry about that way and took it the left. Yeah, it's got it over the wall No, that one might have been 370 McCutcheon 13 game hitting streak swing fly ball deep left field McCutcheon gets into this one Andrew McCutcheon gives the Pirates the lead of four run eighth inning in Chicago And the Pirates are on top boy just what you think you're done. You know you come on the road Things aren't going well doing nothing Offensively through seven and now four hits four runs two bombs Triolo still at second with two gone now and it's up to Nick Gonzalez to knock him in for three pirates lead in the ninth Here's a liner pass push into right base hit Triolo tags third. He's coming up to score and The throw goes all the way Rattling around behind home plate and Gonzalez goes from first to second to third on Bellinger's throwing error RBI hit for Nick Gonzalez five three pirates in the ninth. Yeah, that's a huge hit right there He's so good at going the other way Interesting is right before that pitch They were yelling at Bellinger to move in move in and and he's he moved in about five or six steps as the pitch was Being thrown still didn't matter. He's Dennis Santana trying for his fourth career save. He's got two this year They were both with the Yankees the Cubs down to their final hour and here comes Dan to be Swanson Swing and a miss struck him out. And that's the ball game felt like a comfortable lead slip away I'm a tough loss for the Cubs here tonight and raise the jolly Roger Dennis Santana one two three Picks up his first pirate save fourth of his career Bucks come back and deal the Cubs that gut punch we talked about Yeah This is a definitely a little revenge game for what went on in our place to just snatch this one away
