brian roberts and gregg zaun. they prepared dishes.here along with fans to make a decision -- judges were there to make a decision. the winner ended up being none other than gregg zaun. zauny had chicken enchiladas. that was his specialty. he prepared to do that all along ever since they announced they were going to do this. he got the win and let it be known to all his teammates when he got to the ballpark today that he was the winner today at the cook off in no uncertain terms. and swung on an miss -- and mitted -- missed. bloomquist leading it off. >> buck: i think we could have been judges. >> gary: i would like to be a judge. >> buck: how come rock got to be a judge? >> gary: i don't know. it's not fair. it's not right. we do a lot more eating than rob. >> gary: we can prove that by standing up. pitch is high. bloomquist singled and scored in the first inning. time permitting, we'll hear from the chef who won. here is the 1-1 delivery on the way. that one is going to center field. he's got it. gregg zaun, winning chef, what do you

and gregg zaun is very excited about that.d at first he wanted to make some sort of omelet, but he found out they didn't have eggs. but he thinks hissen chill lad das will get there.

i can't see them getting him out tonight. >> my player to watch is gregg zaun. telling tillman, i've been around the block, you listen to me. i'm going to nurse you through t because he's not playing any more, he's got a hot bat. s' going to pull me within one of rick dempsey on that chart. >> you've won the last night. your guy had four hits my guy had none. no problem for wieters. i'm not going to say anything, i want to get back on track. >> tonight here at oriole park at camden yards, the birds getting set to take on kansas city. don't forget, turn on the radio, 105.7, angel has the call. gary thorn and buck martinez is it next. enjoy watching and enjoy the game everybody. we're back with o's xtra postgame. see you later on.   . >> gary: spring training foe orioles. all about the young pitchers who would make their way to the major league level. that is exactly what's happened this season. bergesen has put on a trem show. pie in the face, you better believe it, herndz has come hernandez has come on. chris tillman will pa

melvin mora, gregg zaun go for it. mora makes the snow cone grab as he's falling down.op of the fifth, orioles lead 5-0. john smoltz, humor fall of famer facing nick markakis. markakis sends it out to right field. os beat the sox 6-2 snapping an 11-game losing streak in boston. >>> the drought in d.c. is over. tonight the washington castles captured the city's first championship in five years. the kings of world team tennis after a remarkable run. they started the season 0-4, rallied to clinch the final playoff spot, upset theop team in their conference enroute to the title. they're playing for the billie jean king trophy. men's mvp. puts away the point with a smash. the castles had it going on. the women's single match determined the title. the two exchange ground strokes. then king hits the shot long. that's it. the castles win it 23-20 to claim the championship in just the team's second season in the league. let the celebration begin for coach murphy jenson and his crew. >> a dream come true. i've had so much fun. i feel like my head's about to explode. our team this

maybe now these players -- >> jim p: like i said, i'm going with gregg zaun. he has been in the league longer. >> jim h: knows his way around the kitchen? >> yes. >> jim h: veterans have to get their nourishment. >> jim p: the yankees hitters used to travel with a bunsen burner -- >> jim h: burner? >> jim p: and van de kamp beans. steve -- couldn't hit the fast ball. >> jim h: did you use a bunsen burner? >> no, but he did. gregg zaun is in his 14th year in the big leagues. >> jim h: bunsen burner. >> jim p: yeah, to heat up the beans. $3 a day meal money. that's $14 after tax. eating beans. >> jim h: for a bus ride? . [ indistinct ] steve whittaker. >> jim p: exactly. >> jim h: the 2-2 pitch. swung on and miss. hill retires fig gwens and gets the leadoff man in the 5th. nice pitch. turned it over. >> jim p: take a look. 2-2. you make a good pitch and he does. maybe a changeup. i don't know. 91. but again, he got in one bad inning and you hope the 3rd inning where the angels got a leadoff hit, a couple of curveballs, that would be the aberrational inning, so t

that's usually -- so gregg zaun, you little tricky guy. >> jim h: he fooled you! >> jim p: well, he did. he can always fool me, i'll old, but you want to fool wells at the plate and get him out. >> jim h: there's a bus hit to right field. all wells was doing there was protecting the outside corner, and he has a two-out single. >> jim p: well, wells protected it well, and singled in to right field to get the tying run to the plate. and again, it's so imperative that jim johnson really pitches to the maximum level of his ability, because you don't have a match-up lefty in the orioles bullpen. >> jim h: here is the tying run at the plate, overbay. fouls it back. >> jim h: 2-2 on overbay, and he got him! down on strikes goes overbay, and that ends the threat! so with the tying run aptsty plate, a huge strikeout for jim johnson. bottom of the 8th coming up. orioles up by 2. uilding. now everyone has the fastest upload speeds. and we're giving them a mini netbook. well, i'm sticking with cable. so's ted. (voice) no i'm not! he's just goofing. (voice) no i'm not! (sighin

. >> gary: 0-1 gregg zaun. inside to him, 1-1. still are near the top in the american league with .291 average with runners in scoring position. so many at-bats, it takes a real decline in order to drop the season number. 1-1 delivery. that's why when dave trembley when we talked to him earlier in the sea sorn in how he measures his team and opposing team. he does it in ten-game segments, i don't know what the starting or ending point is for that. that's how he looks how people are doing. because at this point, season numbers can be very misleading at times. especially with opponent teams. if you want to know who on that team is hot, the season numbers may say one thing but the last ten games tell a different story. >> buck: players' logs are important. >> gary: drives it deep, bloomquist is back, says he has room, and he does. two down. >> buck: you can see player's trend by going back to a stat sheet, look at it, how he has played over the last ten games will give you the most accurate evaluation of who is hot and who is not. >>

. >>> well, gregg zaun helping out his pitcher tillman, bloomquist trying to steal, the final out in, the orioles win it 7-3. dave trembley with post game comments presented by verizon wireless. >> we worked him. izturis getting a walk, that was great. that set it up for us and we got some hits. excuse me, go ahead. >> i was going to ask you, you sarcastically talked about giving tillman the ball. >> yeah, i did. >> was he simply throwing it a little bit too high? i mean the three homers and the lack of -- a. if you look up his -- what he's done, he's never -- he's thrown most he's thrown in the minor leagues is 102 pitches. that's the most he's thrown. i think he's been to the seventh inning only a handful of times. not too many. third, his ground ball to fly ball ratio is skewed towards fly balls . i went on the wire wednesday, i thought what he needed to do to improve. two things he did aft second inning. first is he didn't throw a breaking ball. only fastball/changeup. he needed to throw his second e.r.a. pitches and needed to get the ball down. jones made a hell of a flay the fir
