3:50 Shohei is being too much.

3:57 got to expect a little bit more out of them.

3:59 No matter what's happening on the field which

4:01 is more hits as that ball gets by Cam.

4:03 A mistake by Cam uncharacteristic as he's usually

4:07 a sure-handed fielder but that one got through him.

5:14 and his second 1-2-3 inning of the night.

5:16 We'll head to the fifth.

5:19 But it is limited and that's why Ryan Weiss is going

5:22 to be asked to stay out there as long as possible.

5:26 As Alex Bregman shoots one through.

5:31 That's down and Ohtani walks for the second

5:33 time tonight and 26th time on the season.
