roberts, pie and reimold, markakis, mora and scott.wieters, aubrey and andino with matt wieters, a very big series hitting .500. >> jim: our scouting report on wade davis, another tall youngster, 6'5", a great debut against the tigers as he only gives up a run in seven innings and then against fenway park gave up seven of the quickest runs you have ever seen, but he does have above average stuff and he will pitch to both sides of the plate with his fastball. >> gary: 24 years old and this is his third major league start, second on this road trip. brian roberts will take the first pitch for a strike. picking up five hits in this series. 5-11. roberts with the 74 rbi's and closing in on the .290 batting average again. and that's going to miss inside. the count will go to 1-1. roberts the numbers continue to pile up for him as he leads the league with 52. a pitch taken away trying to get to that magic 60 doubles mark by the end of the season. he has a shot at it and he tends to hit them in bunches. it will be fouled back and the count at

he and markakis have the same number of home runs. melvin has 6, roberts has 14. >> buck: brian roberts had to step in with the loss of jones. he had a conversation with dave trembley and he asked brian if he would have problems hitting third. he said i will do what you need. that's what a manager wants to hear. trying to put his two best hitters back-to-back. when you're a big bat it's difficult to replace him. >> jim: 3-1 on mora. off the end of bat. kinsler is there. 3 up, 3 down go the birds in the second. each pitcher is settling. in feldman and text ache -- texas a 1-0 lead. in the dark. no peanuts or nothin'. and then if your bag wants to bring one of its little bag friends for company, they charge another $30. that's just plain mean. why do they hate your bags? at southwest airlines, bags fly free. grab your bag. it's on!

markakis ends up at third.hird and two out. >> rick: wiggington has had some pretty good streaks this season. this is his third hit of the day here. but at one stretch, he had a 9- game hitting streak. so he is used to putting the bat on the ball. into center here. during that fine-game hit streak, 16 for 34, .471 batting average. so he's a pretty good guy to have coming off the bench. even if he's just a platoon player or pinch hitter. >> jim: well, fiorentino gets another shot. middle of the line-up has been very productive here for the orioles. outside for fiorentino, 1-0. he has singled, driven in a run, and score aid again. so two runs. 1 for 2 officially. and there's a strike taken by fiorentino. well, if you're not supposed to rush prospects, moscoso is an example of that, taking all of that time to to finally make it to the big leagues. >> rick: boy, he has begin them a steady diet right on that outside corner, trying to get to him hit the ball to the opposite way. >> jim: 2-1 on fiorentino. and there's

markakis will score. here is the throw and not in time as matt wieters, a two rbi single and the orioles have taken a 6-5 lead! >> jim: watch it hit the curve ball. it hangs a little bit and he is all over it. matt wieters has hit neiman tonight, even though he struck out, he almost had a home run against him. he tagged the ball in the gap the second time up and now puts one up the middle against him and not only does wieters give the orioles the lead, he knocks the tampa bay starter out of the ballgame with the most hits any team has had against him this year, 11. he will lead, nolan reimold's chances of rookie of the year are increased by the production of his team by that man! >> gary: there he is won'terring what happened? he struck out five in the first two innings in the ballgame and then the orioles came at him. there is the line so far and now lance cormier out of the bullpen. >> jim: he's done a nice job for them. last year with the orioles in 45 games and he pitched in three of the last four gam

markakis is 0-2. popped foul and flied out the right on a ball hit hard.   >> jim: strike one. nick has 8 home runs since the all-star break and 33 of his 90 rbis have come since the break.   orioles have only 3 hits in this game off feldman. all 3 hits singles. swing and appeal at third, he did not go. close pitch, markakis got the call. >> buck: s that ball you have to lay off. he tries to elevate the fastball. markakis is not offering at the pitch. need to make him bring it down a bit. reimold and roberts second and first with 2 down. good eye, takes outside. >> buck: talked about markakis ability to manage his own approach at the plate. he's gotten on the plate, close to plate and because of that he has a good idea he can handle anything inside, if it looks away to him, then it's really off the plate. >> jim: 2-1 low. ball 3. potential tying run is on deck. and 3-1 to markakis, luke scott looking for a chance in the 6th inning.   >> jim: 3-1 on

markakis takes a strike. nick markakis base hits on the orioles, 167 for markakis. roberts is 153.markakis with that good batting eye. >> rick: you wouldn't want to make another bet with me, would you, jim, on whether nick markakis has 200 hits by the end of the year. i say he'll have 200 before the year is over. >> jim: okay. >> rick: because i know one thing about nick, and f he gets a hit hits first time up, he's going to get three or four. we've got a ton of stuff we've gotta pay for. and a few things we want to pay for. on top of it all, we're still trying to put away some money for the future. with the wish list, we can save up for anything we want. and still have enough to cover the day-t0-day. plus, the savings engine helps our money grow. and that's something we need and want. introducing the virtual wallet from pnc, a high definition, online view of your money. pnc. leading the way.  . >> jim: ian kinsler leads here in the 4th, fouls it off. kinsler, byrd, and blalock against guthrie who has a 2-0 lead. kinsler grounded out to third his first at bat. he is now 0 for

nick markakis will take it.t time up. >> jim: he didn't have good numbers against left-handers last year even though he had a good year, so they worked real hard on getting the lefties out. he has had trouble getting right-handers out. >> gary: .368 right-handers against him and left-handers .275. >> jim: and that compounds the amount of runs you're going to give up. >> gary: 1-07 count. markakis, into left center field. carl crawford, he's got it. roberts is back to the bag. one down. friday is student night presented by at&t, and your birds will host the red sox 7:05. all students of any age with a valid school i.d. can purchase a left field upper reserve seat for just $6. only two student left -- nights left this season, so don't miss your chance. orioles.com. that is friday night. and you'll get to see brooksy, brooks robinson will be here friday with the pre-game presentation to be made to melvin mora who has moved into the number two spot all-time for the orioles in games played at second base. and in hono

nick markakis.im: part of the process is to trust your stuff and tillman it tonight is not -- hay has deep counts, of the time he is and hit the fastball. there, okay. he hits well, but you do have seven praying behind you and there to make the out. you go, outside corner. crawford has singled and flied in two at-bats he has had this ballgame. crawford, two down, nobody on. it goes to 1-1. clip here. away a one ball, two-strike count. jim: a pretty refreshing a sense. is not hot and humid. to pitch. really of the ball. certainly hasn't affected the result. gary: the last outing for strikeouts against yankees. and he has just let the defense do the has thrown just 78 that will be a base hit for crawford. crawford is 2-3. and the down here in the sixth inning. jim: as i mentioned, when the game progresses and he that crawford didn't miss and the ability to steal a base, i imagine with longoria up, this would with one situations. gary: longoria, there he goes and wieters again and he him! matt wieters

markakis with the count.high to him, 1-2. >> jim: again, remember arookie last year, over 130 innings, 16 with tampa bay. but 133 innings, 9-5, 24 starts down in triple-a. so he's not going to go over that magical 20% more innings the next year than he did last year. >> gary: 1-2 delivery. swung on and missed and he struck the side out with roberts getting a sing until the middle of it. after one tampa bay has ] the 4-0 lead.

. >> jim: that same pitch to nick markakis was a strike. it was different. it was away on nick and in on buehrle. a lot of times the umpire also give up on the pitches when a batter jumps out. >> gary: 1-2 delivery to him. buehrle again will fight it off. it remain as ball and two strikes. hendrickson, the right-handers have hit .308 5u6 of him this season. mark working with a lead-off man on. zobrist on at second base

terrific throw, nick markakis style. on the money. >> gary: bartlett the shortstop plays the tag on and so far davis has been able to get the outs that he needs with a little help from his defense. they're two down. >> jim: i chalk that up to inexperience here at camden yards because when you hit the ball that hard and you know your right-fielders, you cannot throw to second. later on in the game, maybe take a chance, there is no reason because kapler throws well and, again, it is not that far out there. he hit it so hard, the ball is coming off and he read it perfectly. >> gary: each team with a couple of hits in the ballgame now. andino getting the start at shortstop. andino has not had an at-bat in this series against tampa bay. .231 average. the 1-2 delivery. longoria. and he got him. the defense coming up for the occasion when needed so far in the first two innings of this ballgame. one hit, nobody left on and no score. angus axiom number 11: bring on the bacon. the astonishing new angus third pounders. all angus. a

markakis. two down. the non-save opportunities and that e.r.a. is way up. the save opportunities are still high. almost four. >> jim: he has just been out of sorts for about two and a half months because when jim johnson is relaxed and throwing the ball well, the ball sinks. the problem with zobrist is he just got behind it, so he saw actually six pitches. and russ springer is getting loose, the 40-year-old right- hander. we saw him on monday night. so you can take a good fastball hitter and throw him six straight fastballs and one is over the plate, he is probably going to have a good swing. >> gary: and he did and we're tied. the eighth home run surrendered by johnson on the season in 64 innings pitched. here is aybar. down to first. that will do it in the inning, but not before zobrist delivers the homer. we'll go to the bottom of the nine knot yeah.
