get loose. high fly ball to center field hit pretty well. back on it is pie. that's over his head to the deepest part of the ballpark and it bounce over -- over the fence for a ground ruled doublement for the moment, that will cost the marlins a run. >> buck: and uggla cost themselves a run by not being on second base to start this at- bat. if he goes to second base on the throw to the plate, he scores on the ground-ruled double. orioles catch a break. fredi gonzalez frustrated by the fact that they don't get a run on this drive to the triangle in deep center field. cody ross smokes this ball. a low fastball out over the plate. watch pie as he closes on to the warning track. the ball hits the wall and bounces out of play fortunately for the orioles it hit that roving stands out beyond the fence. that is out of play.

that is ruled a ground-ruled double w that, uggla has to hold at third. >> buck: ross -- >> jim: ross has two doubles in the game. still no runs. nice block there by wieters on the pitch in the dirt to baker. after the orioles scored two to get back in it, hendrickson hoping to keep the marlins off the bird, but three straight hits. hermida was tagged out and now two in scoring position with two down. ball two. >> mark: now you -- >> buck: now you see matt albers loosening up. there are a lot of wheels spinning in both dugouts now. the pitcher is the scheduled batter on deck. you have a base open. you're trying to protect a one- run lead and you're behind now two balls and no strikes. you don't have to give into

this hitter even though it's left yes own lefty. >> jim: hendrickson stays from the stretch. time called at the plate by the home plate umpire chad fairchild. >> buck: what happens here is baker reads -- he will be pinch- hit for. >> jim: that's low, ball three. hendrickson got cantu for the first out. since then, hermida doubled, uggla singled with hermida being gunned down at the plate and another double by cody ross on a ball hit to the deepest part of the ballpark. there's a strike, 3-1. >> buck: dan uggla had come across the plate about had to

go back when the ball off the bat of cody ross was ruled a ground ruled double. he was at first base when the bat of ross began. >> jim: 3-1 on john baker, the marlins catcherment there's a strike, 3-2. >> buck: what a job by mark hendrickson making great pitches to get back into the at- bat at 3-2. >> jim: so, 3-2 the count ton baker. first base first base open as buck mentioned. here -- here is the payoff. he got him. fastball down and in that baker couldn't reach. you talk about missed opportunities. three hits in the inning and the florida marlins cannot score and it stays a one-run game. ♪

ah, man, love that drinkability. drink-a what? drinkability. it's what makes bud light so incredibly refreshing. it's like a wave of refreshment, gently washing over your whole body.

it's getting bigger. here comes the refreshment. [ sfx: screaming, wave splashing ] whew. well that almost never happens. easy drinking, always refreshing. bud light. the difference is drinkability. [ sfx: hairdryer ] no hard feelings. boits a one-run game. mark hendrickson struck out the catcher. did he a heck of a job after cody ross hit a ground ruled double. the marlins made a big mistake in dan uggla -- and dan uggla is the guy. he drives what he thinks is an rbi base hit into right field. now, watch uggla. recollection in at first base and gives up on the play. great throw nails the runner at the plate. hermida is out. on that play, uggla has got to be at second base. he has got no where else to go. if he breaks to second base, they might try to cut that ball off and not even have a play on hermida, but because he was at first base when cody ross hit

the ball out of the ballpark on the ground ruled double beings he couldn't score. >> jim: how often do you see three straight hits, three of those doubles no, double play involved in the inning and no runs. >> buck: yeah, that just cost you. you can't play like that and expect to win a division or get into the postseason. you just gave a runaway right there. >> jim: instead of it being at least a 4-2 game, orioles still down by a run. here is wieters. tough night at the plate, 0-2 with a couple of strikeouts. nolasco stays on. he has struck out seven. his spot will leadoff in the seventh inning, bottom half. if he gets through the top half, likely he'll be lifted for a pinch-hitter. good eye, ball three. wieters, andino and pitcher's spot is due here in the seventh

inning. matt wieters took strike all the way. >> buck: one thing about a baseball game, when you're involved in a play you always have someplace to be. there's renyel pinto who pitched in last night's game f you're a defender, you can backup a play f you're a second base runner, you can follow the play and anticipate the lead. >> jim: wieters a-high pop shallow right center field and that ball falls in! hermida very late getting in on the ball. uggla back on it, but he was waiting to be called off and didn't give it much of an effort. that ball just falls in. >> buck: this ball sun here forever. it's a high pop-up to the outfield and nobody gets close to it. you see wieters reaction. uggla goes out. he's looking for help. here comes the right fielder. he wasn't close to it and it drops in the middle of all three of them. >> jim: hermida with the left- handed power of weerlts. that ball was up there for a

long time. sheer robert andino now with one on and none down. andino trying to push a bunt. he fouls back. >> jim: you can't jab -- >> buck: you can't jab at a bunt like that. he's fortunate it went out of play. he's trying to push it pass the pitcher and make the first baseman cantu field t now samuel is going to talk to him a little bit. >> jim: i wonder if he may have done that on his own. if you think about it, you're on the road. you want to get the game tiedment you usually don't play for a tie on the road. >> buck: he might have been thinking. he didn't look as though he was pushing it for a base hit. he sort of jabbed it. juan samuel makes sure heunderstands what's going on here. it's a goofy game. it's not -- no full moon. you couldn't tell. the clouds have been out here forever. >> jim: he squares again and pushes it in the air and it's caught by the first baseman. jorge cantu. so, not a very good effort there by robert andino as he was trying to push that ball

towards the hole at first base and he is out and wieters has to hold at first base. we invite you to join us tomorrow. more o's action. the finale of the three-game series iveltion our coverage on masn begins at 6:30 with "o's xtra" presented by at&t and game coverage at 7:00. we have all the access you need right here on masn. >> buck: there's rich hill charting for this game tonight and oftentimes pitchers kind of enjoy charting. some will choose to chart off the television. gives you a better idea of the pitches exactly. mark wiley the pitching coach out to talk to nolasco again. oscar salazar who has -- who has been announced into this game with the game-tying base hit with two outs in the bottom of the ninth last night. time and time again, he's gotten big hits. he had the -- actually had the

pinch-hit in the eighth inning. still in the game in the ninth inning. it wasn't a pinch-hit. it was his second hit. he got his first pinch-hit in the eighth inning. then, got the base hit up the middle in the ninth inning. you put across the tying run. >> jim: how is this for a productive road trip for oscar salazar. he's been up five times, four hits. >> buck: and the only out he made was part of that run- scoring, game-winning rally in the eighth inning when he pinched hit, advanced robert andino from second to third to setup the rbi situation for brian roberts. >> jim: takes ball one. wieters the tying run on at first now with one down. ground ball slowly hit to short. ramirez. there's the double play. nolasco gets out of it and the orioles go down here in the seventh. a base hit, but none left. seventh inning stretch

>> buck: time for the gei game summary. hanley ramirez delivered a two- run base hit in the first inning. chris coghlan and emilio bonifacio score. nick markakis hit a ground ball to the shortstop and third baseman. bonifacio with two outs. he boots it. brian roberts scores the first run. then melvin mora delivered an rbi bathe base hit in the inning to make it a 3-2 game. chance for an insurance run here. uggla singles to right field, but nick markakis guns down jeremy hermida to end it and with the marlins threatening second and third and two outs, mark hendrickson comes up with a big strikeout of the catcher john baker and we stand at 3-2 as the marlins hit in the bottom of the seventh. melvin mora had two singles, an rbi. brian roberts a-double and a single and -- single and hanley ramirez, two more rbi's tonight. that came in the first inning off jason berken. hanley ramirez now with 42 runs

driven in. hit total the same. error totals the same. orioles trail by a run as matt albers takes over here in the seventh. >> jim: so, albers becomes the third pitcher used by the orioles. a pinch-hitter will face him first for the pitcher's spot and chris coghlan and emilio bonifacio. veteran right-handed batter ross gload will pinch-hit for ricky nolasco. >> buck: ross gload pinch-hit in the seventh inning and got a hit to right field part that have five-run, four-hit seventh inning last night. >> jim: and albers misses low. ricky nolasco goes seven innings. he allows two runs. they are unearned runs. it's been a one-run game. gload fouls it back. >> buck: 3-4 starts since his return from the minor leagues has been good. this marlins pitching staff has a lot of promise.

if nolasco can recapture the form he had a year ago in josh johnson is just off the chart. many people believe not only here but around baseball you've got a chance to win the cy young. >> jim: albers gets ahead of ross gload 1-2. goes one inning no, runs, despite three hits. check swing. he went too far. good pitch by matt albers. that fastball exploded and gload down on strikes. one away. >> buck: we can't tell you how good this bullpen has been ream. everybody down there has had their moment. matt albers gets a big strikeout to start the bottom of the seventh here. great, explosive movement on that two-seam fastball. didn't necessarily move down like you normally see from matt albers. boy, it took off.

>> jim: back to the top of the lineup now for chris coghlan. walked and scored leading off in the first inning. there's a strike. orioles back in it with the two unearned runs in the sixth. a one-run deficit. still two more at-bats. now they get to go after the florida bullpen with nolasco lifted for a pinch-hitter. >> buck: the interesting thing, again, we must point out no lindstrom lind down there. probably no leo nunez down there. we've go the two guys in your bullpen and tim wood and christopher leroux that have one major league game between them. >> jim: leroux was called up today for lindstrom going on the d. l. he had been at double- a. there's a ground ball at first. huff to the bagment two men out. so, albers with two quick outs.

fredi gonzalez looking it over on the bench. >> buck: you've got to make a decision. >> jim: sunday, july 12, come out to oriole park to 21 ute taw street. an area -- eutaw street. an area for just $21. fans can he purchase a ticket and receive a limited edition t- shirt featuring nick and adam. that's the place to be july 12 for all of nick and adam's biggest fans. call 888-848-bird or go to orioles.com and reserve a seat for 21 eutaw street. >> buck: nick markakis made another strong throw tonight. he now has eight assists as he got jeremy hermida at the plate in the sixth inning. >> jim: slapped foul by bonifacio. 0-2. >> buck: adam jones still on the bench. should pinto come into the game, you have a reasoned bat with some pop and you have ty wigginton.

nolan reimold and oscar salazar have already been used in this game. so, you're down to three bench players. wigginton is aware of the possibility. he's loosening up -- loosening up. >> jim: albers, ahead 0-2. a little bit low. bonifacio takes. bonifacio's run in the first inning right now is the difference in this game. he reached on an error on a throw by melvin mora. not only did he reach. both runners coghlan and bonifacio advance. so, there were two in scoring position. they both scored on the base hit. the single by hanley ramirez. >> buck: yeah, matt albers has to get bonifacio right here. 2-2 count, two outs. end the inning with him the third out. leave hanley ramirez standing on deck.

>> jim: 2-2 chopped towards the middle. throws. safe is the call at first. bang-bang, roberts made a fine throw. bonifacio simply out ran it. >> buck: yeah, if bonifacio took that approach every at- bat, he'd hit .350. you just can't throw him out. brian did everything he could to unload in a hurry and it is bang-bang. actually, a little closer than i thought. he had a better shot at it than i thought originally. brian made a heck may have to make it that close. >> jim: the infield hit keeps the inning going. here is hanley ramirez. two outs. if albers gets ramirez, no harm done. we'll see what bonifacio does at first. will he try to steal second? he is running. pitch in the deet. wieters' throw into center field! bonifacio gets to third. pie must get the ball in. bonifacio coming towards the plate! here is the throw!

he is safe at the plate! what a mental mistake by felix pie. he held the baseball! bonifacio looked up. he saw that pie still had it and he -- and he runs all the way to the plate. >> buck: boy, what a mistake. matt wieters digs the ball out of the dirt. never got a good grip on the baseball and throws it into center. look at bonifacio watch this play. he turns around to see what pie is going to do and never stops. pie through the ball -- threw the ball to second and that's costly. look at the indecisive -- he didn't know what to do. last thing you do is hold it. first thing do you is get it back to the infield as quick as possible. credit bonifacio for running with his head up. he had an idea before he ever touched third base that he could score on that ball in center field. >> jim: bonifacio went on a good pitch because the pitch was in the dirt.

wieters' throw sailes sailed. the first error charged to wieters and then pie just went to sleep. you cannot hold the baseball in the outfield. you just can't do it. >> buck: it's one of the most explosive base runners in the game. he's got tremendous speed. i mean, people have been talking about him for the last couple of years and how fast he is. >> jim: so, the error will be charged to wieters as ramirez walks. there's no error to pie even though it's a big mental error. rick kranitz out to the mound to talk to ashes who has walked hanley ramirez following that play. >> buck: that's the value of speed. you run with your head up. you can make the defense make mistakes. the hesitation by felix pie proved costly. he was aware of bonifacio, but

he dfnlt know how to react to it. he didn't know how to negate his speed. here is the break. the ball is behind him. it's going into the outfield. now he tossed it. watch him look back right here. he sees pie with the hesitation. he never stops around third base. matt wieters tries to block him off home. bonifacio had too much momentum and knocks him off his feet. >> jim: when pie was starting earlier in the year in left field, would he do that quite a bit holding the baseball a lot longer than necessary that. time it really cost him. the orioles once again now trail by two. ramirez runs. wieters' throw to second base. the tag, safe. got a good jump, and he stole it on albers. >> buck: matt wieters still hasn't thrown out a base runner. the only base runner he was credited with caught stealing was a boxed scweez squeeze play that he tagged out run aer. hanley ramirez gets a great

jump. steals his 10th of the season. throw was a strong one, but not in time to get ramirez. >> jim: here is a strike. 1-1 on jorge cantu, the florida cleanup hitter. orioles now have committed two errors in -- errors in this game. pie had a baserunning mistake in the first inning and now a defensive mistake here in the seventh inning. this is strike one and two on cantu. >> buck: yeah, had it not been for a bad brushing play by dan uggla, it -- baserunning play by dan uggla, it could be a three-run deficit. >> jim: ramirez in scoring position. he's had a good game. two walk and a decision. a walk and a stolen base.

1-2 on cantu. just did get a piece to cantu on a pretty good breaking ball. jorge cantu batting cleanup on this team. 45 rbi's. 1-2 the count with two men down. and he got him. fastball on the inner part of the plate and cantu couldn't reach it. an unearned run will be charged to matt albers, but a big insurance run for florida in a 4 had been 2 -- 4-2 lead. @ú@ú

joits a 4-2 game. orioles coming up in the eighth. still just a two-run deficit. that's a big insurance run for the marlins in the bottom of the seventh. so, 2-4 florida runs in this game are unearned runs. renyel pinto will come on in relief of ricky nolasco. >> buck: pinto worked in the ninth inning of last night's

extra inning game and walked two. nothing else as he got a goulet off the ballot of adam jones. -- bat of adam jones. >> jim: roberts will lead off here. he takes the strike. adam jones comes out to pinch- hit for pie and then markakis. brian a-good game. a single, a double, a luna scored. he's know scored a run in five straight games and has a six- game hitting streak. there's adam on deck to pinch- hit for felix pie. 1-1 on roberts. renyel pinto who is now on and nolasco who start were picked up that trade from the cubs. when juan pierre was sent to chicago. that was in december of 2005 3-1 the count. 005 seas it was a very good trade for

florida. they got pinto, nolasco and sergio meet ray all for juan pierre who eventually lept left chicago and went to the dodgers as a free agent. 3-1 on roberts. he walks. leadoff walk. the tying run can come to the plate. that's not what fredi gonzalez wanted to see. time now for you to text in your vote for the at&t player of the game. here are the candidates for tonight. brian roberts, melvin mora or emilio bonifacio. text in your vote now and have your voice heard a much, b or c, 51862. roberts has two hits and a walk. melvin mora has an rbi and two hits. you what he bonifacio has done. >> buck: he's been all over the place. scored a couple of runs. scored the winning run in last night's game and had a hit. he had an infield hit to the

second baseman. >> jim: adam jones now off the no. adam nice enough to join us earlier on. he's 5-19 on the road trip, .263 average, but over a longer stretch now over 12 games ear, batting just .157. >> buck: weapon we heard from him earlier in the game as jim mentioned, he talked about chasing too many bad pitches, not being patient enough, eliminate the right half of the field. that's what he was so good at earlier in the season was using the whole field. >> jim: he's taking his time. he missed it. 0-2. adam had 18 rbi's in april. he had 18 rbi's in may. now in june, he has seven.

kind of interesting how jones, markakis and huff, the three rbi men on the team, the top rbi men, all have seen their rbi's reduce this month. high fly ball off the end of the bat to center field. cody ross is there. jones retired. one down. roberts halfway back pedals tofirst base. >> buck: those numbers are all intertwined when you get on base when everybody hitting is allotted opportunities. everybody's numbers have kind of fallen off because the team overall is not hitting as well as he did in the first two months of the season. >> jim: one down. here is pinto now to face markakis. dave trembley looking over to -- looking over the lineup card. he's thinking ahead to possible moves that fredi gonzalez might make. outside. ba
