The exchange took place in the top of the sixth inning with Brett Wisely at the plate. The left-handed hitter did not see a strike through the first five pitches he saw against Braydon Fisher. However, Whitson called two of those pitches strikes, bringing the count full. Wisely did line a single in the ninth pitch of the at-bat.
