Oh, there it is We might see a mascot down for a while Are they gonna have a stretcher come out and take him off the kids love it. Is there even anybody in there? No one's helping this mascot that mascot has not moved. Whoa bloopers moved Look guys up. He's up Telling it's a big deal Grant Holmes toes the rubber for Atlanta making his sixth start. He's been good for the Braves I mean this is a team that suffered a lot of Injuries right out of spring training and for the Braves to have one of the best starting pitchers ERA and baseball has to do with Grant Holmes popped up by Turner in the infield Mentioned that Grant just saw these Phillies what kind of adjustments would you anticipate him making seeing the same team again? Yeah, that that certainly goes in the favor of the hitter And then so as a starting pitcher just five days in between your starts You're gonna have to make some adjustments Walker with a high fly ball to right Acuna drifting back He's camped underneath it If Holmes can get Bryce Harper here It would not be just any old one, two, three first inning the Braves have had a really difficult time Holding the opponent scoreless in the first inning lately Braves have allowed at least one first inning run in five consecutive games One two three first for Grant Holmes on just eight pitches Andrew Painter right hander ready to go to work Yeah, if you were gonna build a pitcher out of a lab This is what he would look like six foot seven righty popped up by Acuna top of the infield Bryson Scott makes the call I'll bring up Drake Baldwin Baldwin chasing one of the dirt skips away from Garrett Stubbs behind the plate But it make the throw to retire Baldwin the Braves have back-to-back two out single Matt Olsen and Ozzie's hits were both on fastball Austin Riley From O'Reilly turn to his left will make the play the Braves strand to do down for Bryson stock left-handed batter Tell one two is lined up the middle two out hit four stops Runner aboard one down for Alec Boehm. No score in the top of the second rolls over on one here Retired so are the Phillies don't Andrew Painter back to the hill for inning number two No score here in Atlanta three to pitch on the way, and it's hit sharply But on one hop harps got it, and he'll run to the bag and beat the scrims key there and the side is tired Garrett Stubbs to the place and he pokes it up the middle for a base hits Second start of the season for Stubbs and he has his first hit No score top of the third here's Trey Turner who popped out to short his first time up He swings and drives it high and deep to right Acuna though Is gonna turn and look at that ball is gone and Trey Turner showing off the opposite field power It's a two run home run and the Phillies take the lead at two to nothing. Here's Harper pay off to Harper And he strikes out swinging went to a 3-2 slider Harper strikes out for the second time tonight and two down here in the third inning now Here's the Dulles Garcia, but they can get him going that would be a huge difference for this Phillies lineup Garcia on the ground third Garcia with an infield signal and that'll put to a board with Brandon Marsh coming up ready with a 2-2 pitch here it comes Broken bat flair in the center coming in Eli White Eli is under it and he makes a chest-high catch for out number three Wyatt Ander Andrew Painter in his third inning of action Yeah, so the Phillies last time they had a two-run lead was against Grant Holmes Sunday 45 innings He just caved in the side of that baseball and Wrecked it for his second home run of the season that lead lasted for two batters two down for Ozzie All these he's single to the first inning as he's swinging it from the left side and he's zip ones through the right side a Base hit right in between Harper and Stott There's that splitter again and Ozzie was able to beat it with the barrel. So two down for Austin Riley Pay off to Riley all these in motion and the pitches popped up Brandon Marsh is there And he'll make the catch profit will be on first with two outs Garrett Stubbs will step in founding ball up the middle As his second infield single two down, but the bases are loaded for Kyle Schwarber dangerous place to be For the Phillies can't take advantage of the bases loaded situation You can hear the booze when Bryce Harper's announcing kids. Sometimes they can't tell if that's Braves or Phillies fans Oh, come on, they love them. They'll make a statue of Harper in Philadelphia Harper line drive deep left field way Bryce Harper with a go-ahead Didn't go over by much but it went over enough and the Phillies have a 3-2 lead Two outs. Here's ball. Boom drills. This one to left. Yes. Drensky took a step in That ends the top of the fifth Painter is back out there This is where you have to have a shut down inning if you're Andrew Painter try to get three up three down in a hurry Acuna though rounds this one to second stock backs up on it makes the play One out for Drake Baldwin. This is the third trip to the order So kind of start to sit on the edge of your seat expecting more this third trip through against Painter Baldwin gets jammed Sliding backhand stop by Turner to make the out sets up on the rubbery standing on the third base out of the rubber Heels just about touching and he pretty much has his shoulders squared up to the plate and that first step Darren It's just a very slight Also Will be a two-out baserunner here at the bottom of the fifth inning bring up Ozzie Ozzie Albies first pitch to Albies He hits that another slow roller to start at second base who cleans it up So just like that Andrew Painter a quick inning and a new to quick it is good for him Grant Holmes into his sixth inning of work, you know He had a lot of trouble there in the middle of his outing, but he could finish strong here one two pitch Got him swinging for a strike three. He needed an inning just like that and he served it up Well Andrew Painter headed to the mound to start the sixth inning. Nobody's throwing for the Phillies right now The pitch swung on line towards center coming in. It's Crawford. He will slide. Oh and he made the catch Justin Crawford with a great sliding grab in center field The Braves are going to take a little bit closer look and they are not going to challenge But laying the glove down on the grass and he's just able to spirit Michael Harris was in the starting lineup tonight But it was scratched left the game yesterday with some tightness in that left leg Apparently day-to-day more like hour-to-hour and there's not a hotter hitter on this roster than Michael Harris right now Two on and two out to pitch. He swings and it's a high fly ball deep left field back to the wall It's off the base of the wall, but in the score Smith here comes Dubon Harris hadn't been just hitting the ball He's been attacking the baseball and it's a two RBI double and the Braves take the lead in the sixth inning Name a hotter hitter on the planet right now. You can't do it Harris will make his impact and he will depart the game for a pinch runner Michael comes into the game for about 30 seconds sits back down and makes the biggest impact of the night This gets away from And it's all come unraveled on painter the rookie here in the sixth inning three two pitch high ball for Thompson has seen enough a call to the bullpen for the Phillies as the Braves have retaken the lead and now it's Drake Baldwin But the damage is done Aaron bummer left hander out of the bullpen for Atlanta 1-1 pitch in the air to left field Just Rimsky coming in. He's there makes a shoulder high catch that ends the top of the seven Good job by bummer high arms would love a strikeout right here his 2-2 pitch Little flare in the center in for a base hit That was a sweeper right off the end of the bat by Boehm And now the tying run comes to the plate with one out here in the eighth inning. Here's Crawford Crawford puts this in the air Acuna drifting back It's a big out right there and two down and Stubbs with a fly ball to right field Acuna drifting back. He's got it. So Puyallup survives. No runs one hit no errors in a man left They're going to intentionally walk Ronald to face Drake Baldwin Batting here with two on and two out in the eight deals in the pitch ground ball hit the short Turner's got it Oh nobody there to play at second now He throws it away at first too high and Baldwin is safe, and there's another absolutely blown defensive play for the Phillies Scott didn't cover at second Turner assumed that he would and Once Turner realized it he threw high and wide to first base Harper caught it But it pulled him off the bag and that just shouldn't happen. Nope And this sellout crowd consensus They know a base hit right here could be the dagger swinging a ground ball to first Harper loves it He'll take it himself and Olsen is retired Torres. No stranger to the closing roll 76 saves over the past two seasons for San Diego tying run is aboard Philly's still fighting now branded Martians coming up. It skips away Both runners will advance now the tying run in scoring position now a base hit and tie this game up Another victory over the Phillies there for no against Philadelphia this year and the doldrums for the Phillies Have reached double digits the losing streak now in ten
