Cal's seventh hit of the series so far.
This is gonna be a breaking ball that he catches out front.
You saw him fighting off fastballs, top of the zone, just waiting for that mistake.
He finally gets that hanging breaking ball, doesn't try and do too much with it, and serves it into left field for the first run of the game for the Mariners.
That brings up JP Crawford, who's really been seeing the ball well lately.
His last six games, JP Crawford's been on base 19 times.

We talked about the 2-1 fastball where JP took his shot.
Got back to his approach, fouled off a 98 mile an hour fastball, and then got one a little bit further over the plate that he could handle, and almost hits this ball off the back of Joe.
Hurries into center field to score another run for the Mariners.
