Shota Imanaga fires SEVEN SHUTOUT INNINGS in Chicago! | 今永昇太の圧巻パフォーマンス
The lefty Shodda Imanaga three and one since coming back from a hamstring injury. Got a victory at Fenway Park last year and is coming off a very good start in New York. 02 and he gets a swing and miss from Gonzalez on that splitter outside. This is not where Shto wanted to throw this ball at all. You see the grip? Romy’s thinking on third first thing. Let’s jump him. Chased lefty on lefty chance with the sweeper and a strike out. Imanaga gives up a double on the first pitch but leaves a man stranded. A little pump of the fist from Imanaga. Skies went into right center field. Tucker will come in and a couple of Red Sox left stranded by Shod Imanaga. Snder waves and misses. So that Imanaga splitter seen it fade once or twice, but it seemingly has that downward movement that gets the swing and miss. Alex Bregman swings away and flies one out to Ian Hap. His fellow 2015 draftmate makes the catch and one pitch to retire Alex Bregman. One-two pitch to Romy Gonzalez and he waves and misses to finish off a 1, two, three, nine pitch third inning. And he gets another strike out on that splitter. Four of his 5ks coming on that disappearing split. Yoshida one hop second base her to Swanson who is off the bag. Imanaga working scoreless through four innings already. He pops one up on the infield. Be the third baseman Bruhan for the second out of the 3-2 delivery and ref Snider pops it up. Bush is over [Applause] on the ground too short. Swanson is there. the number one pick in 2015 throws out the number two pick in 2015. I’m more impressed by his Ianaga throwing the ball in at 90 m an hour and doing it again right here Gonzalez and just blowing these Red Sox hitters up inside and he gets a lot of ground balls. He’s doing that tonight. Covers the bag for a one two three six 10 pitch inning. He continues to be extremely efficient like he was in New York last week. Deep drive to left but playable for half and first down of the seventh inning. Swings at a lot of pitches. Some of them aren’t real close. Bouncer to third. Bruhan. Tough play on the move. He makes it to retire Raphael. Connor Wong first pitch swinging. Pops it up. BCH is out. Horner is out. It will be her and I imanaga for a second consecutive start. Goes seven shut out innings. [Music] Impressive work. One run against the Yankees. Should say shut out tonight through seven. [Applause]
Chicago Cubs pitcher Shota Imanaga put on a dominant performance against the Boston Red Sox, with 5 H, 0 R, 1 BB, and 5 K in 7 IP.
