manny parra. >> ray: there's a question going around in milwaukee. what about to parra?the last two years, he has been a consistent winner. nobody wants to face this man. he has four different pitches and he is at 8-9 with a 6.33 earned run average, johnny, but in his last seven games he gave up at least four runs, only six innings with a 7 earned run average so he has been pounded. and maybe we can add to that. >> johnny: what i like -- you made a comment a minute ago, ray, about these guys have got to start going longer. the season is almost over. there's no more -- let's get three or four innings out of a guy. >> ray: you're managing to win. if you're developing young talent -- which we are -- but jim is winning, trying to win not only for the city of washington but for wriggleman. his status hasn't been decided yet. so every gape he is managing, he is managing to win so you can't afford to go long with these guys to give up six or seven runs, you know, because you're trying to cover your backside he is managing extremely well and i hope he does get that job as manage

and manny parra gets his second double of the year among his five hits. in the game plan after the count went to 0- 2. >> rob: well, the hanging breaking ball, parra all over it. mike morse takes bad route, steps in a couple of steps and over his head. >> bob: when they end up strikes, look out, even with the pitcher. >> rob: yeah. that breaking ball -- you're not throwing it for strike three but in the dirt so it's a swinging strike three. >> bob: here's escobar. he only played nine games for the brewers. 8 for 25. so he is hitting .320 and is 22 years old. he is from vargas, venezuela. he signed six years ago at age 16. and he was hitting .298 with 42 steals in nashville when they called him up. that was 11 days ago, the day they sent j.j. hardy to aaa and designated bill hall for assignment. >> rob: if you're craig stammen, you have to get on track. forget the double you just gave up. you're throwing a good game, very solid, getting ahead of people. i don't mind the way they do this, though. lopez, counsell, and then braun, fielder, cameron coming up.
