Braves vs. Rays Game Highlights (4/13/25) | MLB Highlights

Well let's take a look at Joe Boyle his career numbers in the big leagues 16 games 13 starts a record of five and six an ERA of 5.23 and probably his best game as a major leaguer came against the Rays that was back on August the 19th year ago Harris swings and misses it took three pitches, and he is taken care of by Joe Boyle three pitches There's his first strikeout in his Rays debut Oh and two to Riley and the pitch is swung on and missed back-to-back three pitch strikeouts for Joe Boyle Taking care of Harris and then Riley and there's two out nobody on Two out nobody on Ozuna swings and pops it up to first base Curtis Meade to his left gives way to the second baseman Montez to make the running catch in fair territory then goes up against the sidewall That's a good way to start your race career for Joe Boyle at the end of half Chrisale looking for his first win of the season for the Braves still throwing a lot of first pitch strikes and surprises He's been hit a fair amount so far this year Last time he faced the Rays a 7-3 win in Atlanta last time out five rungs four and two-thirds Here's Yandy Diaz who started for the Rays The upper tank and right center field for Yandy Diaz and the Rays take a 1-0 lead Certainly a welcome start for the Rays with a leadoff home run and with that The first hit for the Rays and Suncoast junior coming arrow right-hand batter takes the first pitch slider strike You know really interesting the last three pitches Sean Murphy is set up in off the plate all three misses were off the plate Away, and now here's a drive by Morrell towards right field shallow late break for count that coming on to make the catch quick throw back to first and Junior Kevin arrow would have been doubled up and the throw gets away Does it go out of play or not Kevin arrow is heading to second? He is you're gonna get him two bases on an error by Jared Kalnick on the throw Common arrow was already between first and second before that ball got into the dugout once he saw it miss first base He got up and started moving and because of that they're gonna give him the extra 90 feet There's a big early moment raised already have one in they have a lead through a gift They've got coming arrow down to third base with two out near as Jose Caballero There's a strike first K of the day for Chris sale, but the Rays do jump in front starting today at 196 Sharply hit ball that Montez Equal to the task swing at a ground ball to second diving Montez to his right now gets up and throws to first for the out Beautifully done by Coco Montez one away even miss So to God third strikeout And the pitch from boilers a called strike three on the inside with a slider Six up six down for Joe Boyle as the Braves are set down in order To to got him looking Well that came from down the street around the corner to clip the outside portion of the plate and the slider gets Montez looking one down And that's gonna be a base hit by the time Calvin's can make the pickup wall already aborted first nice job by walls of staying on that pitch staying through the middle of the Field at the DH awaits another one, too And he hits it directly at Ozzie always it was scorched, but Ozzie's able to make the play We are on our way to the third to one at the leadoff batter Swing at a high fly ball towards shallow right second baseman Montez out right fielder in Caballero the call in the catch reaching up And a wave and miss Allen out on strikes May be the best slider that Boyle has thrown so far in this game He keeps it in the zone But right at the bottom where you're not gonna be able to do anything with that if you're Allen chopped off the plate towards short gonna be cut off by Coming arrow and the throw on the run is in time to get Eli White Nice play to his left by junior if that got to walls it might have been an infield hit Boyle has retired all nine that he's faced Here it is from sale Caminero bouncer to second could be to Ozzie to Allen to Olsen Double play needed that knows Taylor made There's the two two on the way to Christopher Morrell and a swing and a miss. That's a nasty slider I don't know what in the world you're supposed to do with that other than swing and miss the way that Morrell did It's popped up left side Caminero back for it walls shading his eyes, and he makes the catch Fly ball in the left Morrell now coming in had to change directions and makes the catch and boy He started back on the trajectory of that ball and had the battle the win that this right here Tells you all you need to know about the wind at this ballpark this homestead one two again Swing and a miss sharp slider for Boyle He's retired his first 12 and half of them have been strikeouts if Caballero takes off again Got a good lead over there there He goes one two pitch swing and a miss for strike three and it bounced away from Murphy Down to second base for Jose Caballero with a stolen base and strikeout of Jansen as he walks back to the dugout Rays have now 21 stolen bases this year that's second in the American League to Boston and Seattle They fake the daylight play the pitch swing a little poker in a shallow right field It's gonna drop for a base hit and go on a foul ground Grounding third coming home is Caballero Kelly plays it off the sidewall It's an RBI soft single the right for Coco Montez and the Rays have a three nothing advantage now in the fourth inning one two from sale Strike three swung on and miss it a slider You know the slider fans Jake Mangum two down here in the ending that brings Taylor walls up to the plate struck him out Change up ultimately gets him six K's for sale. He's been so good with the command No, three ball counts as you we're talking about, but he's been able to come back Got there and made the catch that's not an easy play Balls hit right at him sinking and he got there with time to spare. There's the three one That's low ball for you know, Phil Boyle whom you mentioned can have spells where he struggles with the command Finally blinks here in the top of the fifth inning Here comes swing and a miss and there was the slider takes care of Murphy for the second out of the inning That's also seven strikeouts for Joe Boyle today He looks back to second and pitches swing and a high drive in the left center field With Mangan moving back to the edge of the warning track and he catches it in the deep alleyway to retire the side and five No hit innings for Joe Boyle your sale to Diaz outside ball for and did you see the reaction at Chris sale? Shouted at himself snaps the throwback in his mitt and then shouts again at him So he's walked the leadoff batter in three straight innings need is hit by the slider He has pitched with anger before many years In fact, you always know how he feels when he's on the mound But he just hit me with a 1-2 pitch 2-2 pitch check swing got him Came back with a slider and gets Caminero one down. Here's Christopher Morrell. He's standing fly to right Said Yonde's gonna score We'll get another round that half minute first and second Morell Did it at all that hard but it perfectly played a bit of separation Lakeland's own Chris sale heads back to the dugout Well, how about Joe Boyle making his race debut very efficient 62 pitches and he has mixed them Very very well gotten them all involved and they all have led to good things And he comes in and hits him with the slider. So the leadoff man is aboard for the Braves Runner goes pitches a ball throw down by Jensen in the centerfield All for the races Nick Allen the third base I don't go in standing and put a little bit of pressure on Boyle and a stolen base at an error Have a runner at third base three two Goes to the slider, but he missed by quite a bit And the Braves have him at the corners and we'll see if Kevin Cash makes the decision Michael Harris coming up and here it is So he's gonna take out Boyle with a no-hitter and Mason Montgomery will be coming in Eli why did first Nick Allen and third no one else daddy's the bat one two pitch ground ball out to second base Montez The second they get one over the first bang bang Michaels in there safely had a run scores Good hustle a Harris digging it out staying out of the double play Nothing in two with two down the pitch to Ozuna ground ball out to third It's off the glove of Caminero rolling out of the shortstop walls He recovers throws over not in time But Ozuna was really hobbling down the line and he seems to be banged up out there at first base Favoring his leg as he's going down the line second a third for Harrison. So now Matt Olsen up to the plate They'll stick with those Zuna out there pitch to Olsen Olsen with a fly ball to deep left field Pharrell back lots of thrust on this one and right off the top of the wall They throw to the cutoff man. They hit the third baseman and Ozuna is barely in there Matt just missed a homer by an inch or two a run scores and it's a 4-2 game But a missile right off the top of the left field wall first pitch to Ozzie He'll flip one in the air to center field. That's gonna drop in Able to dink a flare out there in the center field Ozuna scores. It's a one-run game RBI single by all bees The wind is starting to blow out towards right field with a left-hand batting around up He launched one yesterday and no doubt or around the foul pole Now the Rays have a 5-3 lead and a chance to add more Here is junior Caminero with runners at second and third and here is Caminero launching one left center field on its way to the scoreboard Gone! A three-run homer for Junior Caminero And it's eight to three Rays and what a celebration between home and first between Junior Caminero and his dugout he and his teammates were loving it And he's still celebrating as he goes from third to home. I wondered if we would see this Marcello Ozuna who clearly was not running at a hundred percent earlier is going to be Removed from the game and Stuart Fairchild is going to become the DH for Atlanta So that certainly will be a talking point after the game And gets him Had him out in front strikes him out out front and over the top that had some nasty action to it that changeup by Engler And Matt tees off to deep centerfield Jake Mangum leaping and he caught it Jake Mangum with a leaping grab took away an extra base hit from Matt Olsen And that's just another chapter in the book of the unlucky nature of Matt Olsen that we have seen today Fingering him off with a home run. Here's Sean Murphy Swing line drive to short backhanded by Walsh to second one Montez the first double play and the Rays are it out away Nobody plays better at shortstop in this league than Taylor Walsh He is out on strike standard and the Rays are winners It's an 8-3 final take two of three from Atlanta in this series
