is not pitching. >> bob: with a pick by zimmerman. that came up on ryan. he made a great play. i don't know he that anybody else makes that play as well as him. i don't know if he has -- make this play behind him. behind him. i don't like his arm angle. >> bob: that was perfect. >> rob: terrible. i think he was below 3/4. >> bob: great. >> rob: hit him in the chest. that's big league picking action right there. >> bob: that was a nis pick. >> rob: we'll see him tomorrow? >> bob: we will. nick johnson is o-2 stolen bases with the marlins. >> rob: i thought no way i had to look it up.

he is. o-2. >> bob: come on. come on, nick. >> rob: what are you trying to do down there. >> bob: tonight run on josh bard, buddy. swing and foul by young. the count is 2-2. a beautiful monday evening in pittsburgh, small crowd on hand. bottom of the 3rd. washington trying to win and break even on this series. ending the road trip. dukes will take it right at the edge of the track for. >> rob: a jam shot. >> bob: mock has retired 3 of the last 4. nats and riggleman would be very happy for him to

just pitch off the full wind up for a while. >> bob: he only pitched off the wind up tonight. the batter has the lead off homerun then all the guys on base in the 2nd and 3rd. >> rob: why are you mocking him. >> bob: pining out the facts. oh, mocking. [ laughter ] you can stay out there for 6 innings, that's a quality start. an tonight to win. that's all he has to do. i don't think morton will be around to end the game garrett is looking at 104. >> bob: 4 to 5. if he gets an

out. laroche. that's a good fastball. 3-2. fastball away. a base hit. up the middle. that will bring up cedeno. >> rob: trying to hit it up the middle. getting it by guzman. super cedeno is up.

>> bob: high strike to cedeno. flared out to gonzales the first time. >> rob: and break minus two and the vertical break was minus zero. >> bob: you are reading the auxiliary score board again. [ laughter ] >> bob: you didn't figure that out on your own. a broken bat. a one hopper. guzman himself. he will run in and lead off in the top of the 4th. nats down 3-0. t... we bring fiber optic all the way to the home. um... which gives you more bandwidth than cable. so you can upload faster. so it's like comparing a horse and buggy to a sports car. am i the, uh, horse? (announcer) it's a whole new internet. makes uploading as easy as downloading. because your internet's not fast unless it's two-way fast.

 >> bob: the nats are still much in the game. mock put a couple of zeros on the board. they are on the verge with morton. >> rob: settling down the first inning, figuring it out. he is going more with the curve ball. tough start pounding the strike zone. this is the team that you can come back on morton. get runs and manufacture one or two here. get it back and get into the game on the board first but yet yourself involved in the game if you are the pitcher. he can go 6 or 7. he is big and strong and he has found a groove. >> bob: a couple of red hot guys. >> rob: charlie morton is trying to throw all of his pitches which is difficult to do. any level you are at trying to

throw four different that do four different things for strikes, you have to be a ham of famer to do that -- a hall of famer to do that. >> bob: scoop it and throw him out. >> rob: the bottom line is, you know, top of the order. you have to manufacture a run. get out, get 9 strikeouts. 3, 4 games. >> bob: zimmerman struck out first time. frontnd, sometime them out, throw them out double plays. dunn in the 2nd. adam has fanned seven times. just over 2 games he played in the series. >> rob: the last game in

milwaukee, he struck out. >> bob: zimmerman to shortstop. cedeno again. a good pick by pearce. >> rob: some guys at this level get hot in the field. right now cedeno is picking up. throws it. looking at first. one hopper. pearce makes a scoop. >> bob: you wonder will the pirates sustain this kind of defense? the best in the league in terms of air are whys, 43 and 104 games coming into this one. with all the youngsters this he have now with sanchez and wilson gone, dunn very late with the swing, will they lead the league for long.

that's an interesting thing to keep an eye on. adam in the series 2-1, 1 r.b.i., 1 walk. 7 whiffs. off speed low. red hot hitter on deck. dunn lines 1. even cedeno cannot catch that. he dunn get as 2 out hit. that's big for the nats it getting willingham in there and josh is 5 of 10 after his double. a-ha. >> rob: he cannot jump. he can catch it left or right. >> bob: 6-foot tall. >> rob: bigman getting jammed

on the fastball. able to muscle is out there. >> bob: fastball up. trailed in the late innings. 7th when willingham hit a 2 run homer. to return the lead into a nats advantage they scored again. >> rob: i like the notes today they called it willingslam. tell everyone he won the coplayer of the week. >> bob: nice. fastball to the inner half. 1-2. steve pearce looks like he is holding his big brother on base

there. [ laughter ] >> bob: target in. they pitched josh like this. hit by some pitches. he has been plunked 11 times this year. >> rob: he likes to drop the head and pull it down the line. back in. >> bob: 2-2. they did make a good pitch to jam him that time. nats are gone in the top of the 4th. they had two hits. they trail by 3. added aflac to its employee benefits package at no direct cost to the company... it was a perfect fit. find out more at aflac!... ...forbusiness.com

through adam dunn. giants have an early run at houston tonight. battling a couple of clubs in the wild card race. giants in colorado. looking at morton extend. hit that ball. he hit it hard twice tonight. >> rob: single up the middle. top of the order. >> bob: we'll check in with our buddy and the trivia. losing pitcher in the 1960 world series.

if memory serves me correctly... that was the racy stalllard? that is hard hit. mccutchen at the shortstop. , you know the wall. the old field. why ogi was trying to get that homer back still stands. >> rob: guzman trying to double up the pitcher. >> bob: just talking old news anyway. [ laughter ] >> bob: and that still stands over near the university of pittsburgh campus. yogi was watching it fly out. milledge to zimmerman. bounce the throw. that is on and nats turn a double play. the key was zimdom got rid of

it quickly. nats turn the 96th of the year. @p @>pk@c@" ep6l.xopnpq.cp+pgú

 >> bob: we're here and i thought it was addressee

stalllard. let's see who gave it up. let's relive one of the greatest world series moments. a swing and high 5.   >> bob: i spook to this carter, one of the players walk off homeruns to clinch the world series. >> rob: a buddy of yours showed up here, rob. how you doing. >> bob: don't mess with the hair. >> rob: the hair, the hair. >> bob: have you been trying to

shot a hot dog at him. [ laughter ] >> rob: there may have to be a mutiny on the bounty is that what you are saying. shortstop is good. can you put a head set on ronny cedeno. >> bob: he through out dukes. >> rob: who is tough are you or the par rot. bet you are. [ laughter ] holy. >> bob: i think that's fake. [ laughter ] all right. see you later. thanks for 1990. teak it easy. >> bob: see you next year. >> bob: that's one of the better interviews you have ever done. josh bard. don't hit it near a pirate with

a glove. they are playing great. >> rob: keep hitting it, keep hitting it. they cannot catch every one of them. i got it! >> bob: 2 outs quickly. gonzales coming up. >> rob: only name i knew was ralph franken. he is saying they cheated. they were giving signals or something. >> bob: you know bobby thompson you know how bard went about 320 feet? he bolted down the line. that was a wreck tack eye lar. a polo ground stadium and turned it into a park something like 290 down the line. he hit it into the first tier of the left field seats. >> rob: that is like nick johnson and. >> bob: the whole family thing

going. >> rob: wow. >> bob: i saw a tie gram of the homerun one time, i mean, if you just took the corners of any park and cut them off and set the wall straight out. that's what they are like. pirates are playing great defense. we're convinced that now halfway through the game. pa announcer: final boarding call... all passengers... each with an average speed of 590 mph... almost as fast as you. nothing's gonna hold you down. grab your bag . it's on™west so our low fares stay low.

 >> bob: a beautiful view of t allegheny river over on the north shore. they call it in pittsburgh. come out early. and fronted by our friends

nationals and. be there when the gates open. >> bob: and off the truck. i remember two years ago it was not last year and august 3rd. >> rob: the san diego chicken.

fascist guy i like... >> bob: well someone who is not dressed up like a character. the max papkin. i saw him in 1976. i was mesmerized. garrett jones. walked by mock. third walk of the night, you feel like water out of a coke can. making it like a guy -- i don't know how he did it. and spit like a guyser of water out. >> bob: he was funny. i want to do his job. >> bob: i think max moon

walked. he had crazy moves. it was great theater at a baseball game. to you do you 1-2 of course ted genoulis. he was the first great mascot that was an animal character. ask about the nats at masn sports.com. lauren would like to know. that's. we don't like to speculate about careers but, you know, lauren look at the numbers now you are saying well he is giving up 7-5-4 and so far 3

runs in the four starts. another interesting thing. he has given up -- it indicates that his defense does a lot of standing around waiting for him to throw strikes or get ahead of hitters. when i went through the stats for johnson who is pitching against the nats n 141 he has given up 2 unearned runs. he is around the plate and they are playing well for him. 3-0. when he pops out, that tells you that the leash is getting short in a 3-0 game.

dunn cannot get it. for a moment that's a play at 3rd. that was reached by dunn. he didn't get down and get the ball. see how they score it. >> rob: he knew he would not be a good first baseman, going to lose johnson at thend of the season. giving up defense for offense. >> bob: they rule a hit. >> rob: i don't think. >> bob: 2 on, nobody out. pearce the batter. trying to look at those plus minus guys. he will give up some on defense in left field or first base you hope he makes it up with the

bat and gets you on the plus side with the r.b.i.s. in this case, 75 on the year. >> rob: i'm sure he has not given up 75 runs with the glove. or the arm or legs but... you need someone who can get you runs but hopefully prevent them as well. 2-0 again. breaking ball fora strike. due up in the 6 is mock. probably his last inning.

>> bob: first base ump said no swing. has to throw a strike here. >> rob: he was traded after the waiver deadline. >> bob: when you are not around the plate a lot you're not going to get that call. bases are loaded. >> rob: i don't know. do it for mock. >> b:
