Mateo gets a nothing FB right down the middle and crushes it to left, it gets over the high recessed wall for a solo HR, his 1st of the season, 2-1 O's.
425 feet, a HR in all 30 parks.

Cowser works the count back to 2-2, then takes a slider up and in that brushes the corner, but is called ball 3. Then Rodon maybe gets a makeup call, a 97 Fb that maybe touched the bottom of the zone, ꓘ, 1 down.

McCann takes a curve low, then tries to pull a thigh high FB on the outside corner, rolls it over to Cabrera for out #2.

FB thigh high outer half, fouled off. Slider misses the backdoor by 3-4 inches near the bottom of the zone, 1-1 FB in the middle above the knees, and he hits it the same way Mountcastle did. Grisham gets back to the wall, and slightly mistimes his leap so hits the wall on the way up, loses whatever small chance he had to steal that HR. Just a bit late on the jump, but I don't think he could've gotten that anyway.

Maybe he could've gotten it, but it would've been a great play, solo HR makes it 3-1 O's.

1-2 FB at 98 on the outer half, chopped to Torres, who throws Henderson out to end the inning.
3-1 O's going top 5. Grisham, Volpe and Soto for the Yanks.

Curve above middle for strike 1 to Grisham. Beach ball gets on the field, causing a delay. Slider up and away, 1-1 Curve up in the zone again at 85, yet Grisham is late and fouls it off to the left. Didn't recognize it fast enough, I guess. Slowed his bat up with the two curves, and good pitch sequencing, a FB at 96 in the same spot, and he misses under, fouls tips it into the mitt for the K, 1 down.

Volpe takes a strike then a FB high Slider low/away, 2-1 Chases a sharp slider 4-5 inches below the knees, 2-2 Backs it up with a FB trying to hit the knees, and catch him looking slider, but missed low, 3-2 Good sequencing, didn't quite execute. Backs the Maddux sinker over the outer 3rd, and Volpe thinks it's a slider, and by the time he can realize it's not the slider, it's by him for the ꓘ. 2 down.

Fb away, hit high down the LF line, it hits the cut in corner side wall, caroms far away from Coswer, and Soto gets a two out triple.
