zaun received a plaque. money raised benefits the maryland food bank. >>> and we may be worlds apart, but the sport of baseball is uniting us. a team of 15 and under baseball stars from japan played against the baltimore all stars today at the johns hopkins homeward campus. it was 20 years ago that the two teams first squared off. mayor sheila dixon threw out the first pitch today. she says she hopes baltimore all star will be able to travel to kawasaki next year. >> you know, through exchanges like these, we brought our young people to the amazing diversity and knowledge all around the world. >> kawasaki and baltimore became sister cities in 1989. >>> the biggest story line to come out telephone first ravens practice today was more about who didn't suit up. ten guys, mostly veterans reported on the physically unable to perform list, at least for the time being. joe flacco not among those guys. he look much more confident. he says she not concerned with the receivers the ravens have. so the fans shouldn't be

izturis has got t zaun retired, 1-for-3, double for greg with a run scored in the ballgame as we go tohe 7th inning. 4-9-1 for the orioles. orioles have not trailed, had a 4-0 lead. before the ann gentlemens came back with 3 runs in the fifth inning, one of those unearned. that will bring up andino. robert andino, he has singled and grounded out. good baseball game. tight and tough where everything matters. a strike taken. >> jim: it's realy the way you would like to see the game played. two relatively young pitchers, berken a rookie at 25 and sean o'sullivan, a baby at 21. >> gary: jason bulger in relief here. bulger has thrown a pretty good breaking ball and he got andino to chase that one. he came on and got the final out in the 6th inning. andino now at .250 on the season, one homerun, 7 rbis. again, chasing one away. andino goes downswinging. 2 down here in the 7th inning. >> jim: nice little breaking ball. you have a big guy at 6'4", the 22nd amateur drafted back. there is that breaking ball we talked about -- back in 2001. one year as a starter and then right to the bullpen. aga

i can't see them getting him out tonight. >> my player to watch is gregg zaun. telling tillman, i've been around the block, you listen to me. i'm going to nurse you through t because he's not playing any more, he's got a hot bat. s' going to pull me within one of rick dempsey on that chart. >> you've won the last night. your guy had four hits my guy had none. no problem for wieters. i'm not going to say anything, i want to get back on track. >> tonight here at oriole park at camden yards, the birds getting set to take on kansas city. don't forget, turn on the radio, 105.7, angel has the call. gary thorn and buck martinez is it next. enjoy watching and enjoy the game everybody. we're back with o's xtra postgame. see you later on.   . >> gary: spring training foe orioles. all about the young pitchers who would make their way to the major league level. that is exactly what's happened this season. bergesen has put on a trem show. pie in the face, you better believe it, herndz has come hernandez has come on. chris tillman will pa

brian roberts and gregg zaun. they prepared dishes.here along with fans to make a decision -- judges were there to make a decision. the winner ended up being none other than gregg zaun. zauny had chicken enchiladas. that was his specialty. he prepared to do that all along ever since they announced they were going to do this. he got the win and let it be known to all his teammates when he got to the ballpark today that he was the winner today at the cook off in no uncertain terms. and swung on an miss -- and mitted -- missed. bloomquist leading it off. >> buck: i think we could have been judges. >> gary: i would like to be a judge. >> buck: how come rock got to be a judge? >> gary: i don't know. it's not fair. it's not right. we do a lot more eating than rob. >> gary: we can prove that by standing up. pitch is high. bloomquist singled and scored in the first inning. time permitting, we'll hear from the chef who won. here is the 1-1 delivery on the way. that one is going to center field. he's got it. gregg zaun, winning chef, what do you

roberts, guthrie, and zaun will be the chefs. several years ago the orioles' wives had a charity cookbook and everybody submitted recipe and that was very popular. maybe now these players -- >> jim p: like i said, i'm going with gregg zaun. he has been in the league longer. >> jim h: knows his way around the kitchen? >> yes. >> jim h: veterans have to get their nourishment. >> jim p: the yankees hitters used to travel with a bunsen burner -- >> jim h: burner? >> jim p: and van de kamp beans. steve -- couldn't hit the fast ball. >> jim h: did you use a bunsen burner? >> no, but he did. gregg zaun is in his 14th year in the big leagues. >> jim h: bunsen burner. >> jim p: yeah, to heat up the beans. $3 a day meal money. that's $14 after tax. eating beans. >> jim h: for a bus ride? .

and gregg zaun is very excited about that.d at first he wanted to make some sort of omelet, but he found out they didn't have eggs. but he thinks hissen chill lad das will get there.

i talked to zaun yesterday about that. zaun was going to put the bug in his ear about doing that.all felt he was throwing way too many breaking pitches. but his fastball was better for him tonight. >> we've done that before. when you're the home team, you know, and it's the top of the ninth you can pitch him, because now you go to win it. i think most people do that with their closer at home. you don't do that on the road. that's why downs was warming up and he didn't come in in a tie game. they were saving him for a save situation. >> when barajas ground out at third. what did you see? >> with what? >> barajas when he grounded out i guess it was the 11th. >> barajas didn't run. i don't know for what reason, he didn't run. i have my stopwatch up there and i got him like 6-something running to first. i know rod real well. he's a gamer. he didn't run and i didn't know he had a bad leg. but i thought it was going to be a close play, but then i looked up and he didn't get out of the box very good at all. >> excite that had your exile is over? >> excited, just glad. turn the page. let'

for me, that's where zaun earns his salt because he knows he's been there.knows what he's doing. i'm not saying wieters doesn't. i'm not saying that. i'm saying zaun does. >> cautionary note before the game in terms of what to expect from tillman. did you get everything you expected from him in trey hillman -- >> we got him out at the right time. i'm sure he never had to work so hard to get three outs before. you know the 90 some pitches he threw, they were -- he had to work. and coupled with the fact that he's here and, you know, all the stuff that's going on and his mom and dad are here and -- i imagine he'll sleep well. i told him afterwards he will sleep well tonight. he'll sleep very well. gave it what he got. and albers, he got a big out and johnson pitched aggressive. he pitched aagreesive and we got nice hits on the guys in the middle and two-out hits and that's game. on our side. >> johnson you expect to see. >> johnson with finish. pitching in. and sink. that's what i expected. >> gary: coach, you spoke in the pregame about adam jones and his matur

that's usually -- so gregg zaun, you little tricky guy. >> jim h: he fooled you! >> jim p: well, he did. he can always fool me, i'll old, but you want to fool wells at the plate and get him out. >> jim h: there's a bus hit to right field. all wells was doing there was protecting the outside corner, and he has a two-out single. >> jim p: well, wells protected it well, and singled in to right field to get the tying run to the plate. and again, it's so imperative that jim johnson really pitches to the maximum level of his ability, because you don't have a match-up lefty in the orioles bullpen. >> jim h: here is the tying run at the plate, overbay. fouls it back. >> jim h: 2-2 on overbay, and he got him! down on strikes goes overbay, and that ends the threat! so with the tying run aptsty plate, a huge strikeout for jim johnson. bottom of the 8th coming up. orioles up by 2. uilding. now everyone has the fastest upload speeds. and we're giving them a mini netbook. well, i'm sticking with cable. so's ted.

zaun had a good night behind the plate. 1-0. down and in.in the line up and really holing his own as he tries to adjust at this level. >> jim p: he does. he has a high kick. the throwing has gotten better. he will even get better as he feels more comfortable and you have to come up and learn your staff and the opposition. kind of a mark man. you can see some of the home runs, left half handed and both of them to left center feel. he runs pretty well far guy of his size so he will be a four- tool player. committee throw, catch, hit for average and probably hit for power. there's four of the five. the only other one is can you, you know -- what kind of running ability you have. >> jim h: he is patient and watches walk. >> jim p: he said, i like the stroke because he doesn't overswing and let's the ball travel. just think about it. you get all that money and all of a sudden you're a mark man, the number one prospect. david price is number two. you play the game the right way. you take the walks when they're presented to you. so he is on the cov
