dave johnson. this is a delight for me. >> it is a delight for me too.atch you every morning. >> i love that. is it one of the greatest moments in sports history. >> it is the toughest thing to win in sports. >> why? >> because it takes a very special horse with a jockey and trainer to go through three races in five weeks, three different racetracks three different surfaces three different distances shipping in one track to another. it is tough. >> the critics say it is an unatalk aboutbleun unattainable feat. >> i thought it's probably the last one i'll call. after that it was the seattle -- >> you called it in your living room at home. you did. >> why is it? has the game -- for lack of a better phrase has the game changed? >> yes, it has. races don't race as often as they did in the '40s and '50s. also at each new stop they have new shooters that are powerful and a lot of times the triple crown has been stopped by horses who have joined the fray late. so, yes, it's a very difficult task. >> the trainer said that it was all about the horse. that this is

we're happy to have dave johnson with us. how are you? >> i'm doing well. the pressure is on. i've got to talk about the nationals. >> it's looking promising. >> it is looking promising. she's getting ahead of me. all right. other than the injury the pitching woes and the losses, nationals are in good shape. the sarcasm is a survival mechanism and the nationals are just trying to survive what has been a bad start to the month of june. for all the aforementioned concerns they're only a game and a half out of first place. still a good team. they just need to show it again. i think bryce harper has been showing that all season long and doing rather well. see the ad for meyer out there. that's a hyper market chain. it's a two run shot. that we know. what is a hyper market? nats offense not done. two run blast. his fifth of the season. nats up 5-2. 7-2 in the seventh inning. the nats hoping to get back on track. keep it going with baseball. to omaha. top of the second we're scoreless. trade killian. that's great name for a pitcher. this is a solo homer. virginia is on the board. up

that's not the legendary announcer dave johnson, that's the track announcer from belmont park.ecent history here that american pharoah can contending with. they consistently lose in the belmont stakes, often lose to long shot horses in that race. just in the last 15 years since 2000, there have been six horses that have gone to the triple crown and none of those horses have won it. that is part of why the triple crown is such a feat because it is so hard to pull off. and this is the horse they're trying to pull off tomorrow. this is american pharoah arriving in style on tuesday afternoon by a private jet. he arrived in part with his name because his owner is american-egyptian. he's a 3/5 favorite. that means if you bet $5 on american pharoah to win and he wins, you'll win $3. a lot of people are going to bet on him tomorrow for the chance to say they were a part of history. but now, think of all that history. that history of futility in this race. all those horses that came into the brink of history and that left as losers. then think of what damon runyon said which is that he'

of course that famous call you heard down the stretch they come, that was dave johnson. so excited to have him here with us. let me start with this. it's a good trip a bad trip. all of the horses that have fallen short in the belmont. is it luck that american pharoah was able to win or is he different and that much better than all of the other horses? >> oh he is much better. the key to it is bob. a terrific guy but a sensational trainer who knows how to keep his horses together through this gruelling five weeks and bob is the key to this. of course it's the horse who did it. finally. >> and you say bob got it done. so you called? >> we were playing this clip yesterday in 1998. he came so close to winning the triple crown that year. it's incredible heartbreak for him. we say he had been there three times before and now all of these years later he breaks through. but to put it all together. i think it's the toughest thing in the world of sports to win the triple crown. american pharoah is simply sensational. >> what is it? when you look at american pharoah, if you're look

why his return to wisconsin >>> dave johnson pitching in to give us a hand looks like the nats are -- they are missing this heat wave because they are up in wisconsin it is 50 degrees. >> water slide. >> yeah. most of the day wandering around this building, nats lost as of late. nats game two of the series, nats could use take two on the month of june. they have lost seven of ten games and real pain to go with the painful results one player to the 15-day dl. carpenter activated to a team that frankly has had far too many inactive players. they tell me the show goes on, jordan zimmermann on the mound tonight. he likes playing against his hometown brewer, against the brew crew. listen to this 4-0, 2.35 e.r.a. and five career starts. look at. this zimmerman from a place called ar upon dale, wisconsin york think i said that right auburndale wisconsin, pictures from his 2004 -- >> look at that. >> yearbook to prove it. he is not going to love us for do that population 703. about 2 hours and 45 minutes away from miller park. we had to prove that he was from auburndale wisconsin. >>> also to

here is the absolutely unforgettable ending to that race called by the legendary dave johnson. >> asd he's coming to the eight pole. 20 years in the waiting, one fur long to go. but here comes his rival, victory gallup as they come to the final 16th imploring real quiet to hold on victory gallup, a final surge, it's going to be very close. here's the wire. it's too close to call! was it real quiet or was it victory gallup? a picture is worth a thousand words. this photo is worth $5 million. oh no. history in the waiting on hold until we get that photo finish. >> a photo finish with history on the line. and then the photo dashed those dreams. it revealed that real quiet had lost that race lost it by a nose to that rival horse, victory gallup who came out of nowhere to stun real quiet at the last possible second. the triple crown has been for a long time now one of sports' most illusive achievements. even if you're not a horse racing fan, you know that the triple crown is a big deal. in order to win it you need to first win the kentucky derby. that is the race with all the fancy hats a

he saw no reason to charge the officers who arrested johnson outside a club near the university of virginia. charlottesville commonwealth attorney dave chapman said that johnson was calling them racist, but that they didn't respond. instead, they just tried to get him to not resist arrest. johnson was left bloodied by that incident. >>> take a look at this video now. tonight police are looking for the five men who chased down, beat and robbed a man in d.c. this happened monday on first street here in northwest d.c. it's very similar to an attack that happened a week earlier. the robbery and attack on june 7th happened less than a mile away. police have not said if these two cases are connected. >>> next at 11 two passenger jets on a collision course. >> stop stop! >> how air traffic controllers stopped a close call at a busy airport. >>> a woman face on the $10 bill. it's really going happen. tonight where you can go to decide whose face it will be. >>> and one of d.c.'s most famous dogs pack it up soon hanging out of a new window. >>> chris lawrence here with an update on that mass shooting in charleston, south carolina. police did

dave chapman told the judge what he announced last night in a press release -- that he wanted to drop the charges against johnson and use the situation as an opportunity to improve relations between citizens and law enforcement. it was early in the morning of march 18 that officers were seen throwing johnson to the ground, his head bleeding. in the end, johnson's grad to have desk glad to have gone through theience as it will motivate him moving forward. >> for the rest of my life, i hope to work to serve minority communities and also society in shedding light on what is injustice and serving those who are overlooked and mistreated throughout our country. jeff: charlottesville commonwealth's attorney david chapman will not be charging the officers involved in the situation. martese johnson was asked about that. he said there is a lesson i goes way beyond criminal charges, mainly talking about understanding and training. he will be in turning on capitol hill in d.c. this summer and then will begin his fourth year at uva this fall. jummy: also new this noon, president obama making an unscheduled stop on capitol hi

susan swain: dave murdoch on twitter, "were the johnsons very religious and did their view change overime with the war and assassination"? you want to take that one? kendra hinkle: mrs. johnson attended church. johnson did not because i think there was vague lines between politics and religion a lot of time at that time period. we do have a letter when he thought he was dying of cholera in the 1870s where he's done his duty by god and his nation and he is, you know, at peace. and so it shows that while not practicing at a church in particular, he was still a religious man. susan swain: and before we leave this life in the early days of the white house, you -- tell us more about how the white house ended up in such a state. i mean, in -- in -- mrs. -- mrs. lincoln spent a lot of money and was criticized for refurbishing -- jacqueline berger: that is very true. but after the president passed away, of course, she went upstairs and like i said, she was there for six weeks. but the -- the white house was still open to the public so as soon as the doors opened in the morning until literally

jeff: johnson stressing the need for improved law enforcement training and better communication between police and minorities. commonwealth attorney dave chapman said he ended legal action in favor of similar goals. the abc officers involved in the crash will also not be charged. martese: there is a bigger lesson to be learned that does not require punishing of the officers. jeff: while some in charlottesville question that decision -- >> i think you have to be accountable for the actions. jeff: many agree it's time to move forward. >> it sounds like a reasonable outcome. >> i was relieved for martese. martese: so now i'm ten times more passionate and driven to get things done. jeff: he will intern on capitol hill in d.c. this summer and in the fall will return to u. versusa. to begin his fourth -- u.v.a. to begin his fourth year. next wednesday the charlottesville attorney will hold a meeting as part of the process to improve relations between citizen and law enforcement. johnson says he will be there. in charlottesville, jeff goldberg, abc7 news. alison: virginia state university has been placed on six months warning by its accrediti

dave, is this about jordan spieth's win or dustin johnson's sort of i don't want to say collapse.ike the average suburban dad out there. >> absolutely. let's start with jordan spieth. he's the picture of poise and the reason why many win this golf tournament. he doesn't have the highs, the lows. he's steady he's poised for a 40-year-old, let alone a 21-year-old. when he double bogeyed 17 you thought he's done. but he stays on a 287-yard 3 wood. the kid is solid. he joins the likes of nicklaus tiger and hogan, youngest to win these first two majors since 1922. he could claim the spieth slam winning all four majors. he's got the game and poise. just on the bag is dustin johnson three-putting from 12 feet. many thought he would sink the eagle and win it outright. he has to hit the three-footer to send this thing to a playoff. it was painful to watch. there is the eagle on 18 with his fiancee paulina gretzky, her dad, wayne gretzky watching on. >> poor dustin johnson, his fiancee is paulina gretzky. let's ease up. >> let's not feel bad for the guy. >> he's still a heluva golfer. jason
