Yankees vs. Reds Game Highlights (5/21/23) | MLB Highlights

Hunter Green the Reds Barry they need some innings out of Hunter Green today they have taxed their bullpen they've worked nine innings over the first two games of this series leading things off it's the second baseman Gleyber Torres a flare down the right field line charging hard is Benson he did get there for the out hitting second at first base Anthony Rizzo there it is not a piece of it but Luke Maley got the rest of it a little dribbler to green and a one two three first inning for Hunter Green Luis Severino making his season debut will start for the Yankees he has declared himself healthy and big league ready so a two time all star is back on the mound he has started with three straight balls to India and make it four and he walks into the youngster Matt McClain playing in just his fifth game in the major leagues here today he swings through a two to change up for strikeout number one for Severino so a walk in a strike out to start brings up Spencer Steer as this one slice down the right field line long run for Jake Bowers nearing the line and he's able he couldn't hang on to it he went sliding the balls loose oh wait a minute he did call that foul but oh my he makes contact with that ball that looks like in fair territory fair foul in the outfield is a reviewable play and the four umpires will get together here Cincinnati's challenging the fair foul call as you said he was running round in third they might just give him the run there especially since he was right close to home plate yeah he did kind of India did kind of slow up here around the third base pretty clearly a fair ball and he had it for a moment and then it popped out couldn't complete the catch after review the call on the field is overturned one run scores the batter runner second base it's an RBI double for Spencer Steer in an upset Aaron Boone and I think what he's saying is the ball was dead how are we supposed to figure out basically if the run scored once the umpire put his hands up and Aaron Boone's just got tossed that didn't take long this is Aaron Boone's first trip back to Cincinnati as the manager of the New York Yankees the place he holds near and dear to his heart and his day is over early the mistake that was made on the play was by the umpire that's right and he's feeling that his team's being penalized for the umpire making a mistake Harrison Bader next up first two pitches opponents hitting five fifty three off Hunter Green the rest of the about two twenty two rounded to third that'll bring up Jake Bowers wired from Cincinnati last June that's Bobby with the fastball the side he's retired Hunter Green faces the minimum for a second straight inning to start his afternoon one nothing Reds on the bottom of the second runner at first close play over at first but back his fair child Rizzo with the snap tag Oh hold on a second New York's challenging the safe call at first base it's quick right there this one might be overturned as well after review the call on the field is overturned the runners out of New York. He's hitting two eleven with seven homers and 18 RBI he's reached in 15 of his last 19 got the call the top of the zone and won't be down looking third strikeout through seven batters for Hunter Green the Yankees trailing one nothing Rizzo struck out his first time and now he swings and misses at a high fastball Rizzo strikes out the top of the second time this afternoon DJ LeMahieu strike three called got him looking back to back strikeout to close out a one two three fourth for Green Willie Calhoun to lead off the fifth inning and the cleanup spot for the Yankees against Hunter Green. That's the second walk issued by Hunter Green. No work from the stretch against Harrison Bader righty hitter hit into a double play his first time up. That's one hit round the left and one swing the Yankees go from down one to up one. Harrison Bader has been all smiles if you're a Yankee fan right now came up from injury as well brings an excitement to this team and now Severino is working with a two one Yankees lead over the Reds Severino working quickly swing and a miss strike three ninety nine with the four Seymour and Severino strikes out his second straight batter here in the fifth. So two away and here's the Reds number nine hitter Luke Bailey. This is lined in the right and it'll drop down for a hit in front of Jake Bowers. And it was his seventy fifth pitch of the game for Severino. You know he wanted to get that last out but that's going to be his last pitch and they weren't kidding about this pitch count. Seve is not happy about it but you have to. And Gleyber Torres will be the batter. Grabbed it out to first base back in the fourth flew out to right field in the first to lead off the game. Torres hit one to right turning and chasing his Benz and he runs out of room three runs today for the Yankees have come via the home run as Gleyber Torres goes deep to right. Gleyber didn't waste any time there. He said you know what I'm gearing up for one pitch one pitch only and that's the fastball. That's what you haven't seen most of the time. Hunter's been throwing at all speed for strikes in the beginning got a fastball that he can hit and went opposite. Greg Allen is going to run for Jake at Jake Bowers and this is what they got Allen for. He'll pinch run for people and he's a flat out superb outfielder. There he goes the throw down to second is not in time stolen base for Allen and there's a ground ball down the third base line a base hit and an RBI for Volpe who's thinking two and he'll have it easily an RBI double for Anthony Volpe and now a four one lead for the Yankees Juan de Peralta at his best predominantly change up pitcher from the left side he'll throw that to Seymour but when he's going well he's getting those ground balls and he's just moving along on the batters here he's not going to overpower you look mainly I don't think he was ready for that and David Bell pops out of the dugout and has a few words for Emilio Jimenez and that'll be the end of the day for David Bell so neither manager will make it through this one and I think what David is talking about is that it looked like it might have been a quick pitch Wanda is also known for that too before the rule changes he would get it and go and I think he's upset because he's still waggling the bat in the box before he can get set you've got to catch eyes both of them have to catch eyes with each other to hit her and the batter at the same time and David Bell who's getting his money's worth last of the night here in Cincinnati and the Yankees are leading the Reds four to one they're ahead by three and they've summoned Clay Holmes out of the bullpen so back to back singles and the Reds are in business here in the ninth inning it'll be Nick Senzel strolling to the plate representing the tying run got the corner and into Senzel to gone Benson hitting one ninety eight and triple A Louisville this season where he's spent most of the year chopper back to Holmes he'll run halfway he'll toss it to Rizzo and the Yankees sweep the series with the Reds despite some ninth inning drama from Cincinnati.
