bartlett on his way to third.ow will not be in time, and it will be a triple as bartlett gets it with two down here in the third inning. nolan reimold did in the play in two straight games and it leams to me getting a slow jump. it is the left achilles, an then the ball just gets by him. again, what is your read? i think a right-handed pitcher, bartlett, even if you don't play it, he is probably going to steal a base because he has that capable against the lefty as little different. but nolan obviously thought he could catch that ball and just didn't do it. >> gary: it is going to be the eighth triple of the season picked up -- the seventh, i'm sorry, by bartlett and he takes it back for a strike. so he is on at third base. the league leader in triples is jocolby ellsbury, span and dejesus with kansas city, they all have nine. the rbi chance here in a scoreless ballgame. the third hit off of hendrickson. bartlett at third. crawford will take it down lo

bartlett is, too.ehow the orioles have managed to come -- the bullpen pitches much better against tampa bay and then i think right now they're really starting to realize that there is a way to beat the teams that they have not had success against in the past. right now it is all working for the orioles. they got a little offense. they got a little momentum against this ball club. tonight is a big night for them. if they end up winning 3-4 and it could be one of the spoiler roles that they really need to take advantage of. >> what a contrast in emotions -- emotions last night. ben zobrist tied the game as tampa bay tied it 2-2. in the bottom of the ninth. matt wieters sent everyone hope happy with what two-run walk- off home run. following the game, wieters tumped -- talked about how he jumped on the first pitch. >> it is something they gave me the confidence to swing away and i was just going to try to put a good swing on it. >> kid you say dave gave you the confidence? dave said something to you? >> i

bartlett from maryland. without objection. mr. bartlett: madam speaker, i believe that we can all agree the health care reform proposals ignited debates an homes and workplaces all over the country. the intense interest in health care policy by so many americans made this district work period unusually exciting. my offices were busy taking phone calls, emails and having people drop by voicing their concerns. this healthy health care debate has led many americans to become involved in politics for the first time. whenever we in congress do something really important, we need to get outside the beltway because that's where the great wisdom in our country lies. all of us in the congress share three goals for health care reform legislation. we want to make health care insurance more affordable and accessible. we want to improve the quality of health care, we want to reduce the cost of health care. where we disagree is how to accomplish these goals. i would like to share some of what i did and learned concerning health care over the re

bartlett is one of the best fastball hitters around. he gets away with a hang they are to crawford. and a curve ball. he hits it right to markakis. so why change anything when you're having success? and, as you said, his only mistake tonight was a fastball. he got down a little bit and your nephew, the good hitter in the family, hit a home run to right field. so, again, here we go. their numbers are getting better. that back-to-back good start. should have got finance win tonight. i know jim johnson has got to be disappointed. he has a ball. sixth straight fastball to zobrist. but pretty timely hitting again by matt wieters and we get to go home a little earlier. >> and, jim, it is very encouraging when you look at the contributions of the young players that are a big part of the future next year because you mentioned that they're looking more and more comfortable. this is fast becoming their team and that is a good sign looking ahead. >> i think it would be easy. i don't know if dave trembley will be back or not, but the club, when they're undermanned. you lost supposedly your best
