veteran right-handed batter ross gload will pinch-hit for ricky nolasco. >> buck: ross gload pinch-hitn the seventh inning and got a hit to right field part that have five-run, four-hit seventh inning last night. >> jim: and albers misses low. ricky nolasco goes seven innings. he allows two runs. they are unearned runs. it's been a one-run game. gload fouls it back. >> buck: 3-4 starts since his return from the minor leagues has been good. this marlins pitching staff has a lot of promise. if nolasco can recapture the form he had a year ago in josh johnson is just off the chart. many people believe not only here but around baseball you've got a chance to win the cy young. >> jim: albers gets ahead of ross gload 1-2. goes one inning no, runs, despite three hits. check swing. he went too far. good pitch by matt albers. that fastball exploded and gload down on strikes. one away. >> buck: we can't tell you how good this bullpen has been ream. everybody down there has had their moment. matt albers gets a big strikeout to start the bottom of the seventh here. great, explosive movement on that

and then baker continued to second base, so there is another pinch hit for ross gload. he now has eight. >> buck: aubrey huff may have had a chance for this ball, but he reads it as being too far away from him. it was kind of in between he and brian roberts. roberts had no chance to make a play. aubrey might have had a chance to knock it down if he goes another step or two to his right. >> jim: so now the lineup turns over. back oh the top. here is chris coghlan. baez falls behind 1-0. so andrew miller goes seven innings. one run on one hit. four base runners off miller. two walks, a hit and an error. >> buck: the first and only hit was to the first batter he faced. nothing after that. >> jim: there is a strike. >> buck: what is more impressive is he is a left- hander and the orioles faced three left-handers in philadelphia and handled them off, including cole hamels on sunday. >> jim: the lead runner is baker the, the catcher, and gload is the trail runner at first. another one in the dirt, and another one smootherred by wieters. >> buck: when you call for that split-f

gload gets into just about every game for the marlins. pinch-hitting. he has found a nice home here. you know, the runner is paulino, ross and carroll, third to first with gload facing chris ray. pop foul out of play. >> buck: yeah, gload hit in the seventh inning in game one here and got a base hit as part of the five-run seventh inning. game two, he came on as a pinch- hitter against matt albers and struck out. that also came in the seventh inning. >> jim: 1-1 is off the plate. chris ray gave up a hit. actually, two hits and bo -- and got a double play in the seventh. five hits and he's still not allowed a run. bases loaded. nobody out. >> buck: ross gload went to college at university of south florida in tampa. going to bounce around. played some in kansas city. he's a pretty good hitter. certainly well suited to play in the national league. he's come off the bench and swing that bat. >> jim: 2-2 skied to left. reimold a long run doesn't get there, but it's foul. there's brian bass now getting loose in the orioles pen. >> buck: the orioles would have liked not to have to use another reliever. they have used two here t

maybe ross gload. i think he was with the whosm at that time -- the white sox at that time.ayed 23 games in 05, so he was a rookie. but he was hurt a lot. he's probably not one of them. >> rob: what about willingham? >> bob: nick johnson, high fly ball, left field. this ball slicing toward the corner, and over there to grab it, chris coghlan. boy, they've got some interesting plays in that part of this ballpark. josh willingham played 12 games in 04, 16 in 05, so he was one of those guys in 06. so 12 of the last 13 nats batters retired by ricky nolasco. here's zimmerman who took him way deep leading off the second. ryan takes his first pitch of the night. he'd only seen two pitches. homered on one, popped up on the other. >> rob: he gets a hard slider there. nolasco pulling another trick out of his magician's hat. he's got a lot of pitches, this kid. >> bob: usually that would indicate fastball, but he tried to go front door with another hook. >> rob: he dropped down, threw like a sidearm slider. >> bob: ronny paulino was considered a very good young defensive catcher when t

ross gload stays in the game at first base. it means that the new pitcher will go into jorge cantu's spot and there's the new pitcher christopher leroux just called back from the minor leagues to take the place of lindstrom on the roster. >> buck: he was at double-a jacksonville. leroux is not -- has not had much experience much like tim wood. this is leroux's second stint with the ball club. he came up early in the season. made an appearance in one game. pitched two innings and then got sent back down. this is just his second major league appearance here. >> jim: wieters will lead off. andino on deck and then the pitcher's spot. wieters takes a ball. matt is 0--- 0-3 on the night and 4-18 on the trip. mention marlins go on the road after the game, but only cross state to tampa. they have the road portion of their home at home with the rays. the rays were here in may, but it's only a three-game road trip. they come right back when the nationals finish with the orioles on sunday. nanls nationals will fly here. nats are here mond

he and ross gload each 33. they're the elder statesmen of the position players on this team. both sfeans season veterans. they come off the bench. helms is in his 11th season and it's his second stint as a marlin. he came up with the braves. went to milwaukee. came to florida. then he wept to the phillies for a year and then came back to florida. >> buck: ease paille played third base. he's played first base. kind of a pretty consistent, productive bat off the bench. >> jim: slowly hit towards shortstop. andino has one play to first. he gets it there to get wes helms. two men down. runners advance. ross to third and baker to second. that will turn the lineup over again. and chris coghlan with a chance for a couple of rbi's. it's been a tough night for albers. second inning of work. he's allowed two runs. one of those uneshd. the runs still came in. now, it's a three-run deficit. orioles trail. coghlan fouls it back. orioles team pitching has been improving -- improving over the month. they finally got the team e.r.a. down below 5.00. it has been above 5.300 for a white. it's
