even brett anderson didn't walk anybody.e hitting shoes against anderson and he leaves the game. >> gary: matusz walked five in his first out against tampa bay and in that ball game, two came around to score. that was a career high in walks but came back in his second outing against tampa bay and surrendered only one walk. >> >> jim p: he said he got ahead of himself, trying to make two perfect pitches instead of just, you know, make -- throw the ball at the knees when they, you know, get ahead. you pitch in. one of the more adept young pitchers to be able to do that, pitch both sides of the plate and the change up in the back of your mind. >> gary: kouzmanoff a one ball, one strike count. he's in the cleanup spot. only one hit in this series in 13 at-because of thes. at-bats. he's continuing a career where frill april is not his favorite month. .217 in april. montanez won't have the play. one hop -- short. sweeney coming to third -- will be waved home. relay throw by izturis to the plate -- not in time. [ cheers and applaus

orioles -- montanez starting in right field against brett anderson.rder with turner and izturis. montanez with all the orioles unable to play, getting some time -- left center and davis is right there. >> jim p: he's the perfect center fielder for this ballpark. it's a huge park. you and mike flanagan talk about the foul territory but the ball hangs up and maybe carries better in daytime. that ball may get up to gap. not with rajai davis over there. cuts the ball, great angle. the ball knuckling a little bit. >> gary: fun to watch play. he can really scoot and when coco crisp gets back with a broken finger, he'll move to left field. the two of them will run into each other a few time with the speed they have. >> jim p: you know, mike flanagan was talking earlier -- i had a chance to pitch here against good clubs for oakland -- a lot of foul territory. today the problem is the high sky. you don't find too many places, other than san francisco across the bay, where you really have to help each other out and the angles here, you know, your right first ba

brett anderson the pitcher of record. the young phenom lefty for the as gave up six runs and eight hits over five. swung on and got him. johnson gets the second strikeout and there are two down in the bottom of the 9th inning. >> jim p: jim johnson said the second best pitch is the change. he pulls the string and strikes patterson. bats way out in front. he already swung and the ball is just arriving at home plate -- great reception, great location. >> gary: two away, top of the order. raja davis. makes the pitch for the strike. davis made a key mistake in this game in the 7th inning when he went around second base too far on a hit by sweeney and izturis thought turner and caught davis before going to second base. >> jim p: it was a heads up play. turner covered the bag. i don't know what davis was thinking about. >> gary: nothing at the time. >> jim p: no reason to go anywhere past second base, trailing by -- >> gary: johnson's got it! and this game is in the books! and the orioles have ended the losing streak. they come
