. >> bob: it had been july of '08 since ian stewart took one up there. adam dunn's got the home run touch going. 7 of his last 20 games. by the way, he's working on a six game hitting streak here. 9 for his last 26. great change-up by hammel. 0-2. >> rob: last pitch, good change- up right here from hammel. down and away. sun tries to launch it to the right side. see the difference, hammel working ahead, 0-2 on pretty much all of our hitters. just puts the hitter at a disadvantage. ryan zimmerman with a defensive swinging bunt. >> bob: guzman waiting. zimmerman aboard with one out in the 4th. first place san diego is playing tonight at home against the dodgers. i think the rest of the west is a little unesy right now, rob, the dodgers have won five in a row and back over .500 finally. >> rob: i still think the rockies are one of the better teams when they get their pitching back. their defense and so fence is fine. -- offense is fine. san diego has just been -- i guess for them a welcome surprise. for the rest of the division, a nightmare. >> bob: kershaw

so ian stewart gets a good jump. he kept his foot on there. but really, you steal a lot of bases off the pitchers. if the pitcher doesn't deliver the catcher in less than 1.2 seconds or it's a slow pitch, very tough to throw base runners out. >> bob: runs games in the series have been a -- running games in the series have been a mismatch. down to zimmerman, backhand, he plants, long throw. the gold glover makes an outstanding play. to the 9th, nats down by a run. trying to salvage a game from the double header and this play goes a long way toward keeping it close. >> bob: colorado crowd hoping to spill on to the streets of lodo, lower downtown here shortly. top of the 9th inning. map well corpus -- manuel corpus was ready. 19 saves in '07 and the rockies won the pennant. but only five since then and none this year. guzman -- todd helton with a diving play. >> rob: well, in-between hawpe right there, right off there in front of the plate. if it had gone one more hop, would have been a little bit tougher, but a great dive by the kind of sickly t

next up will be ian stewart. who's had a good series. 4-8.ee rbis and his batting average is over .300. >> rob: we need to get luis atilano lower on the pitch counts. you have to start getting into the 6th and 8th inning and livan has pretty much been his mentor. but livan has to pitch away from contact. luis can pitch to contact, get ground balls and be more economical. say five, seven pitch innings. >> bob: his first two, dodgers at cubs. six innings each, 93 and 91. it's just not a formula to stick around for longer than six innings and steve mccaddy wants his guys going longer. jammed in, easy fly ball. nyjer morgan. two outs. now, this is why he's been able to win. with the bases ohm city, he'll give up base runners. but he has ha knack of a young pitcher of gearing it up with runners on bias. base. >> rob: five times he's had the bases loaded and gotten out of that. you don't want to keep challenging fate right there by loading the bases. >> bob: that does not include the first and third situation one inning ago when he got the tulowitz

ian stewart doubles to right. that scores brad hawpe. es giambi and stewart. and that was the ball game right there, johnny. they got the nats out in the top of the 9th. >> 6-10-0 for colorado. the three runs inthe 8th inning off of bruney. hiplines gets the win. he has -- jimenez gets the win. he has the most wins ever for a rocky through 35 games. hernandez lost both times, both of the losses to colorado. bruney, two innings and a walk and two home runs. adam dunn goes deep, an upper deck shot. his eighth of the year. stewart and barmes, 2-4 and two rbis apiece. bruney felt good, but not one of his better days. >> it wasn't my day, you know, i mean i go out there and i give the same effort every single day. it's hard for me to find a reason today why i wasn't any good. the effort level and if focus is there. i mean, i have to chalk that up as not a good day for me. >> he's got a good arm. too many times, first hitter walks, second hitter, walked. almost got out of it. but you know, it just wasn't good enough and it was a tough situation

ian, british national party, 1549. labor party, 17,215. [cheers and applause] liberal democrat, 10,224. [applause] i hereby declare that stewart andrew has been duly elected to serve as a member of parliament for the constituency. >> conservatives gain from labor, determined to show that the vote has fallen consistently since 1987. stewart andrew takes it from that jamie. the tories wanted to take, and their target. let's join john simpson. john? >> the prime minister's plane has just arrived, and he is heading to central london. he talked to the assembled journalists on the plane a little bit, and seemed quite upbeat. looking quite -- relatively speaking, relaxed, and just kind of concentrated on the idea, he says, that it is his duty as prime minister to establish a stable, strong, and principal government. and a lot of what he was saying to us was clearly intended to be passed on as fast as possible to the liberal democrats. he says that he was quite enthusiastic still about the whole idea of re-examining the way in which britons electoral system works. i asked him if he wasn't a bit disappointed by the unexpectedly poor sh
