you heard what lou piniella had to say. in case you forgot -- >> those who live in glass houses should not throw stones, right? >> bradley, let's put it this way, he's had his share of onfield incidents. >> all right. we've moved past milton bradley, and we're talking about the angels and d'backs right now. the angels put up eight runs in the second inning and have not looked back. the eight runs in the second the most they've scored in any inning this season. >> padres in town for three with the rangers. 9-1 texas. hank blalock likes what he sees. his 14th of the year. texas wins its third straight. kevin millwood gets career win number 150 for the rangers. >> a.l. central-leading tigers putting their seven-game win streak on the line against the astros. top nine, tigers down 5-4. latroy hawkins gets the ground out. astros hang on to win 5-4, and s detroit's seven-game win streak is over. >> nhl draft.ft, the islanders took center john to tavares with the first pick tavares tavares led the o ontario hocke. league with 54 g

a lot of controversy surrounding the cubs and lou piniella's squabble with milton bradley. this is the same time that was in first place last year that had the best record in the league. will milton bradley prevent the cubs from getting back to the playoffs this season, andrew? >> i don't think you can put it all on milton bradley, but you have to look at milton bradley like you live at a roommate, if you live with someone and have problems and then you move and live with somebody else and have problems with them and then you move again and have problems again, you got to look in the mirror and say, maybe it's me. if milton bradley goes from team to team, he's always a problem. even though when you look at his stats in the off season, you say, wow, we further those stats on our team, we're going to score this many more runs and win more game, you have to understand how he's going to relate in this clubhouse and he's always been a problem wherever he's been. there's always something with milton bradley. i don't think he's a terrible guy. i just think that he has a personalit

better late than never for lou piniella and the cubbies. >> 7-0 deficit against -- well, we only got two off of lee, but, you know, that eighth inning has been a good inning for us. good win. it really is a good win. last three wins here at home have been this type of walk-off variety. so yeah, good -- a good win for our team. >> elsewhere, brewers and tigers in their second rain delay. tigers are leading 10-4. simms doing serious yardwork, hitting not one but two home runs, most home run high game. it was announced before the game that the tigers extended jim leyland's contract through the 2011 season. >>> braves and red sox. dice-k mat sake against kawakami kenshin kawakami. this matchup wasn't even close. kawakami struck out the side in the first inning, struck out five in all, gave up two hits, two earned runs in six innings. top of the fourth, nate mcleod, who homered off the first pitch in the game takes him off the monster. braves win 8-2. red sox have two hits in their last three games. >>> yanks and marlins. a-rod on the bench because of fatigue. his replacement, angel berro

we hear from lou from -- who is a physician. caller: i have been a physician since 1962. i have lived through medicare. my major paoint is that medicare is not the same thing as profit. people should be paid reasonably. the insurance companies have corrupted the whole concept of medical care by a huge -- by the huge profits they are making. they are difficult to fight. if obama's does not fit through his government plan, we will have the same thing we have now. it does not work. guest: i think the insurance companies have done a terrible job in not recognizing that they and the doctors are on the same page. they make these astronomical profits, some of which -- and for-profit organizations. the do so often in hostility with the doctors and disallowing many legitimate treatments and making it impossible to render care. a lot of the administrative costs the president spoke about come from insurance companies. i think the insurance companies have lost and enormous amount of goodwill. there is concern at they are not making a lot of money on the backs of patients. i do think

they are not like lou piniella who i played for. he is more like pete rose where he is very reserved, you don't know what he is thinking but he notices everything. there is nothing that gets by manny acta. i think one of the worst things this organization could do is fire this man at this point. he is not responsible for what's happened. >> bob: and in a world we live in today, where celebrities constantly make fools of themselves by throwing tantrums and emoting in public, i find it quite refreshing. >> rob: and i was one of those tantrum thrower as a player. i was a poor loser but manny is not about that. that's not his style. i can tell you, he privately -- which is very classy and respectable and that's how you get respect in this game, he won't call guys out publicly. i hated that about managers who would do that in the papers and do it publicly, press conferences, so if you are looking for that from manny, you are not going to get it. if you are looking for that from charlie manuel, you will note get it. >> bob: nick johnson w

we're hearing people such as lou piniella, such as ozzie guillen saying they wish the names would all be released. what are your thoughts? >> to begin with, having been a former player, when you take a voluntary test and they tell you the results will never go public, that's one thing. your trust was debetrayed with something like that. but if these names are going to come out, can we not just come out with everybody's name right now? let's get it over with and talk about the great things in baseball right now. >> thank you very much for a very straightforward answer on that. espn's baseball analyst rick sutcliffe has the call with dave o'brien for the phillies and the jays. espn, 7:00 eastern. rick, thank you so much for your insight and perspective. >> dave o'brien's right here. >> still to come on espnews, his wife is battling cancer and phil mickelson is playing in this year's u.s. open. year's (announcer) what does greatness taste like? miller lite.

lou washer man, who, more than anyone else created modern hollywood, with his colossal mca talent agency, had no college and almost no attendance in high school. although he has a high school diploma. he preferred instead to work full-time as a movie usher, beginning at age 13, so how did he get dis diploma working as a movie usher? in an interesting fashion. he approached the school principal with a deal the administrator could not refuse. in exchange for a diploma, but he wouldn't attend classes, wasserman smuggled first run films out of the theatre, in the morning, before it opened, took them to the high school, where they were screened for an admissions price, got them back to the theater, before it opened, and the schools would use the money earned to buy band instruments, and uniforms, so the principal looked like a hero. to parents. he used the time saved from copying notes off black boards to set up mca, signing stars when he was still a teenager like fred astaire and the gish sisters to long term contracts. the legal instruments he created as a teenage boy were -- with no legal

one of the things that something lou piniella said to me last week the season. 3-2 delivery on the way. shattered. gets the out. suzuki is retired and there's one away. two orioles out and about on tuesday you can see rich hill espn zone inner harbor. meeting from noon to 1:00. on wednesday adam jones signing autographs on wednesdays on west nursery road. that will be from noon to 1:00 as well. for details on appearances, visit orioles reach.com. >> buck: good opportunity to go out and meet a couple upbeat guys on this team. rich hill with his first season with the orioles off to a great start looking to improve upon his 2-0 start. certainly adam jones one of the bright spots. >> gary: cunningham against baez. he says he'd use the season in terms of ten game segments. talked to dave about it today and said i do too and never told anybody that because i thought it was crazy doing it. i said it was lao to you may have been right on both counts. he says i've always done that. ten game singments gives you the best view of how a player's performing at that moment except start. look at start

guys like lou brock who had sizemore hitting behind him, murray wills who had junior and -- will tell you how valuable it is to have a number 2 hitter who has the ability to make things develop and given time work in the count. base hit. 9 in a row. he set his own record. a new nationals record for nick johnson. 9 times in a row on base. 11 games in a row and 19 of his last 21. >> rob: as you talked about, bob, he got to a 3-2 count again. brett cecil having to work really hard to get to this count. to get back to what you were saying, for the 3, 4, 5 guys to get basically two leadoff hitters in front of them, they are seeing every pitch that cecil has in his repertoire. the more patient a guy like nick johnson is, zimmerman gets to sit there on deck and see what is going on and dunn gets to sit there in the hole and see what cecil has. that's what makes nick johnson so valuable to the rest of the line-up. you talked about adam dunn, a guy who takes as much pitches is equally as valuable. >> bob: that's a great point, rob, but we do want adam to swing more. we need that guy to swing a

in the name of lou ledbetter, we made this abundantly clear, that six months after the discovery of discrimination -- not after the first act of discrimination. this was the first bill that obama signed, i was there at the signing ceremony, and standing next to him was ledbetter. she did not win on the supreme court, and she was not given the compensation, but she had the satisfaction to know that this congress and its president and not allow the injustice of the supreme court decision to continue. the senator from alabama says that we do not need a judge with empathy. this has been stretched in different directions. if this does not mean that we need a judge who understands the reality of the workplace, and we tell her that she has six months to file the lawsuit, if empathy would say, that is not a fair or just a result, i want to have a judge with empathy, who knows the practical impact of the decisions that they make, and i want for them to be fair. i do not want them to be so far above the will world that they could not see justice if it bit them. we need someone in touch with this real world.

lou, if you want us to do more work through hearings -- if you want more federal reserve officials appear in front of us, we cannot do that without subpoena power. there is still plenty we can do without our subpoena power. we can write a report that exposed misrepresentation about the value of transactions that were occurring under a tarp. i think that has been very valuable. we have been able to evaluate other parts of the program and there have been will take -- there have been real changes in treasury. a real effect is out there. about the act, in my view, and glass stiegel was about systemic risk regulation. the real point is that they understood during the depression that we had gone through these boom and bust cycles every 15 years or so, and the banks were big a risk takers. as long as they made money, their investors got rich. when it went down, they took everybody down with them. it's a done other depositors and a lot of local communities. the basic understanding behind it was that we cannot keep doing that. that is not going to work for us. you not only hurt yourself, you are t

lou piniella named them as his opening day starters to take pressure off of them. >> bob: bouncer up the middle. anderson hernandez knew he had to hurry. he played it perfectly. looks like he is wearing some turf shoes tonight and the first two have been retired on a strikeout and grounder. nationals defense, defensively, adam dunn is the dh. so that is a big plus for stammen, retiring two of the fastest players in baseball and here is evan longoria, second in the american league with 34 extra base hits. only mark teixeira has more with 36. raul ibanez is the major league leader with the phillies with 38. you think sits sense bank park is not jumping tonight. jon lester, joe blanton, red sox and phillies, last two defending world champions. all good breaking ball. >> rob: you can make a great argument against strasburg and what his agent is saying. this a kid who came out of nowhere, six games into the major league last year, they gave him a long-term contract, goes out and wins rookie of the year. talk about impact player. >> bob: stammen is there to grab it, longoria signed a 17 mi

sort of secondary private area and at first i is a privilege metaphor because it does retrofitted by loue 15th and his mistresses and the women in his court to create two worlds, the world that is public and the world behind. things are introduced such as the sofa and a flush toilet. the private bedrooms. suddenly with that comes the idea of having a private life versus a public one. >> this is an important work of scholarship that tells of a completely new way, not just a book about design but in a form a moment in european history. >> the tenth anniversary of the bloomsbury press usaf and bloomsbury press was originally based in the u.k., was the decision to startup. the u.s.? him mack well, i think at that point they were growing up significantly in the u.k. and and fell like they needed an american presence and didn't want to just sell the rights to a lot of their books to publishers in the u.s.. in the u.s. is one of the largest markets in the world for a book publishing so they were taking that next up, there were the publisher of harry potter in the uk so i think they took that op

have taken a very particular interest in what is happening with als in this country and particularly lou gehrig's disease and the incidents that we're seeing amongst our veterans. veteran has a 60% higher likelihood of contracting als than a nonveteran. our gulf war vets, they say between 20% and 30% of them -- >> do we know why? >> no, and we're trying to figure out and trying to understand it. but to reduce costs, keep people in their homes, i do think it's worthy of conversation. i'm not suggesting that we do go down the laundry list of disease specific because i think then you run the risk of, okay, we haven't included whatever the disease is. but i think certainly when it comes to alzheimer's and we recognize the impact to our health care costs and then this orphan disease als is one that quitely where we're just now beginning to see the cost to will will va system, it's something we should be thinking about. but to the extent where so many people can live far berth lifestyles, healthier, more accommodating if they can be at home. instead of a nursing home situation. wherever we can

for almost a year i asked the attorney general, namely lou kasey, to release the opinion and that opinion concluded that the fourth amendment did not apply to military operations on united states soil. the opinion was finally made public this march. it was released together with a memo written in 2008 which instructed attorneys that, quote, caution should be exercised before relying, end quote, on the 2001 opinion. called the opinion's conclusions incorrect or highly questionable. and rendering much of the opinion void. what i'd like to know is, has this opinion ever been withdrawn in its entirety? >> senator, i would have to check on that. i believe so. but let me just check to make sure on that and get back to you. i'm not sure about -- i don't have in my memory right now what the impact of the president's withdrawal of the opinions early on, whether that was concluded. >> well, this is a big opinion on the fourth amendment with respect to american citizens and american military. so i think it's important that we clarify it and could you bring us up to date on what you are doing to revi

we know that supposedly other uighurs are going from guantanamo to pa lou -- palau. one report i read estimated that over the last 14 years going back to the middle of the clinton administration, we paid them about $852 million just for aid and so there's some question are we going to pay them more millions to take this or since their 15-year agreement is up are they willing to take these -- but the bottom line is, millions and millions of dollars are being paid to take 17 uighurs, for those that don't know those are people in china who because of their religious beliefs or adverse to china, even we know that these 17 were -- and we know these 17 were captured in terrorist camps in afghanistan. some say they weren't being trained to terrorize us, but they were in terrorist camps in afghanistan. so the question many are asking now is for those two million of us who lost our jobs since january of this year, what terrorist camp can we go to to train so that maybe we could spend the rest ever our lives alt u.s. ex-- of our lives at u.s. expense at the beaches of bermuda?

is that the house has a long tradition of allowing open rules on appropriations bills in order to's lou each member to offer germane amendments without having to preprint their amendments or receive approval from the rules committee. other than the recent use by the majority to restrict debate on appropriations bills, we have to look back nearly 15 years to the last time a restrictive rule was used. this is not a one time plan but the way the majority plans to consider all of the appropriations bills this year. so i believe that the majority is really not only subverting the rights of every member and also bipartisan and open debate on appropriations bills, but i think they are setting a dangerous precedent that is unfortunate. this is unnecessary and unfortunate. and i reserve. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves the balance of his time. the gentleman from new york. mr. arcuri: i yield five minutes to the the gentleman from wisconsin, the distinguished chairman of the appropriations committee, mr. obey. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from wisconsin is recognized for

the american people, independents, republicans, and democrats alike will pass this body and should loued -- allowed a vote. the majority last night argued that we were dilatory. i would argue it was democratcy. 20 minutes on an amendment is hardly dilatory. with 120 amendments, the worst case scenario, mr. speaker, would be four 10-hour days. i'd ask for 30 more seconds. mr. diaz-balart: 30 sonds. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from illinois is recognized for 30 seconds. mr. schock: is four-10-hour days to debate 64 billion of american taxpayer dollars? we have seen the waste created by the haste of this body of the happy spending majority that this body has. with the stimulus bill, the overbloated omnibus bill, and now this bill which seeks to increase spending by over 12%. i urge a no vote on this rule to allow democracy to continue in this body. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. the gentlewoman from new york. ms. slaughter: i reserve. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from florida. mr. diaz-balart: i yield two minutes to the distingu

play the role of lou piniella for a moment. what do you do with this lineup? >> they're paying all their hit soars much money. it's tough to make a big change. the big question mark has always been alfonso soriano, do we leave him leadoff or let him hit third or fourth? i believe he likes to be on top. he's not hitting well. that's key. i was a leadoff hitter my whole career, as you go, the rest of your team goes. he's hitting .225. he's not where he needs to be as a leadoff guy when you're playing these big guys to hit you in. as a team, the combination of them all are not getting it done and it shows with their average with run centers scoring position, .227. that's not going to get it done. they need to all step up and they all need to do what they need to do. each guy has a role. you need to step up and everybody has to fill that role. >> entering play today, the third worst offense in the major league, fourth worst in terms of batting average. the red sox beat the marlins on wednesday night to become first team in the mesh league with 40 wins. fernando, w
