Houston Astros vs Atlanta Braves - FULL GAME HIGHLIGHTS _ September 12, 2025 MLB Season

What a start for Hurston Waldrop three pitches and he sets down the veteran Carlos Correa. On a couple of bounces Matt Olson is there and he flips to Hurston Waldrop two down. It's a good sign right there with Hurston Waldrop his stuff is live. But yeah just five six or five seven depending on where you look. Is that going to get out there. No it will not because Kim's going to make the catch and Hurston Waldrop sets him down in order in the top of the first. He lines this deep to left. Cole is back reaching up and making a grab at the fence. And how about that for Zach Cole making his major league debut. And that is your first catch at this level. There's the first base runner of the night. Olson couldn't get to it. Acuna is going to fire this to second. Acuna strikes again with that rocket of a right arm. Slow bouncer to Altuve and the second baseman retires the second baseman. Played appearances that have ended in this play. This ball is hit deep out to right center and it is planted in the seat. Zach Cole his first big league at bat and he hits a two run homer. So he had to catch up against the wall and left. Nacho Alvarez diving stop. What a Nacho average first base third baseman over there. Oh my. He chased after that splitter a good one from Walter. So two strikeouts for Walter both of them against Correa. Off of the pitcher but right to Altuve tough luck for Michael Harris. You got to be kidding me. Nacho can't get to that. And Altuve who has been struggling is just two for his last thirty four leading up to that single there in the fourth inning. Line drive Ozzie can't get it. Walker singles Altuve stops at second. Another hit out into right center Altuve is going to come around and score. So Myers delivers an RBI single go three to nothing. And then he's going to get an RBI single in his second big league at bat. What a start at this level for Zach Cole again so reliable he does a lot of things well to play. And he lines this deep out to right center. Oh but it is caught by Sanchez reaching up on the track. And even though it's an out it is a quality at bat. Ronald up the middle but could not stop it and a single for the Braves right fielder. Swinging but water it's going to have to hurry beat it out. And now his second walk this one on four pitches. He lost control of the splitter and that hits Caratini to load the bases net one cut in a big way. You don't see too often. In on the hands Ozzie goes out Harris in. What a sensational diving grab against Houston ground ball first pitch that he throws Myers gets through the left side and that's going to score another one. So seven to nothing and keep in mind five of these runs here for the Astros have come with two outs. A payoff pitch here from Dunning to Cole. Ground ball up the middle he's three for three and he's going to drive in another run and he's going to get to second because Ronald Acuna Jr. had a little trouble picking up the baseball out there in right center. And Dubon continues the hit parade for the Astros. They're going to score two more six total here in the fifth and it's ten to nothing. First place since they've been in first place since June 3rd. Slowly Kim gets it spins and that will do it. But the Astros send ten to the plate and they score six times at the top of the fifth. Certainly wants to be great and put the work in. Alvarez gives this a ride deep center but the ballpark will hold it there within reach there in the American League East deep right to left if it stays fair and it does it is a long homer for Altuve the Astros piling on here in the sixth seventh pitch of the at bat it is in play for Ozzie all beats Altuve Homer eleven to nothing Astros. I don't think the big East is necessarily the top conference right now. What sport have you seen the fencing team at St. John's. I've heard about it actually. Are they doing that documentary that came in. Exactly. I knew it wasn't just to say hi. Deep to left here for Acuna and it's gone into the bullpen to get the Braves on the board. Couple of hits here now tonight for Ronald and I think it's a big deal to try to get him. I'm guessing it's got to be Tom for Church brother. I'm not going to happen at least not yet. There's the first time he has struck out and been retired in any way at the big league level Cole down on strikes at 19 years old. Five hits only got to ever do it. And he's a Georgia guy. Typing stop for Kim. Nice play. That was all he's able to take it off the bounce. And ninety two right in there the Seattle Mariners. That was out of the zone unfortunate for Ozuna seven now in the books closer than anybody in baseball. He's on top of the hitters. So soft grounder did not do it a double clutch there but he still makes a play. Correa wasn't exactly busting it down the line here in an eleven one ball game. I mean every guy's different but how does that play out trying to keep him healthy in terms of what role he might step into today's old question. And I don't think there's a definitive answer to it because yes there's something about. Out in the shadow right center and that will drop for Jurek Jackson Profar. So one out single. Eli White off the bench and into the seats. A pinch hit to run homer for Eli White. You heard Mitch there saying it was the Braves first pinch hit homerun this season. It is their first since. Twenty three. I used to have this in my scoresheet but it just hadn't come up so I took it out. Kevin Pillar was the last brave to have a pinch hit. Keep it down back there. A lot of people think he's sitting there giving announcements and the P.A. is actually standing behind us yelling with. Love it at three after a. Spend about ninety four three hits tonight for Walker including a two RBI hit back in the fifth. Sanchez advances to second. Swing and a miss change up takes care of Christian Walker the struggle that big leaguers can go through and ways you get past Lifts it towards Acuna that'll write it into the top of the ninth. I don't think I'm getting that answer before this one's over. As he golfs it out to Lowe's. And Cole comes on to make the play. Pretty deep out to right field but on the edge of the track Sanchez there Aaron and put a tie on. And that is how the night will end. Bruhan down looking the Astros get up early and they stay up late. Eleven to three is the final tonight. That wasn't meant to be. And some rookies for the Houston Astros really stepping up and congratulations to Zach Cole first big league home run and.
