werth takes a strike. ó jayson a base hit in six trips. >> f.p.: jayson is asking jerry meals, if jonathon niese came to a stop right there, he just rolled right through that, quick pitch jayson, he thought it was a balk. >> bob: that's up and away, one ball one strike. way inside, ball two. 1-1 game, bottom of the 17th. he's been one of the best hitters in the league against left-handed pitching this only martin prado and yoenis cespedes, better numbers than jayson werth. >> f.p.: he's got the whole right side, doesn't he? you can't steer a baseball but look at where josh harrison is playing jayson werth. he has about 15 hoppers between first to third. >> bob: way outside. >> f.p.: got to start michael taylor here, don't you? >> bob: i would think so. and he's got a guy who's going to make contact more often than not. >> f.p.: this is a case where michael taylor has to make sure that niese is going home. you don't have to get your greatest jump. >> bob: not running. the ball goes foul. >> f.p.: davey lopes talking
