i did see the one in the seattle times last week. a pretty good review. nobody at his ryckman entirety without making mistakes about the book but again i think that is this bill that reviewers typically move through. three things, one, if i-- my students used to go crazy and the saying and for this third point i want to tell you. i addressed to the reader in the book for a number of reasons. this is the most important one. when i am writing, this is the stage now, going from the log book to it mental draft and inc. draft, then i go to my laptop so one of the stages in their, you are in the room. you don't have a face, you don't have a gender, you don't have a race, you don't have our religion, you don't have any politics that fiori presence in this room, as if you were speaking to god, as if he were god, this presence in the room and when i'm writing i'm talking to this presence in the room so when i come out to seattle when they see your faces and they see these are face is aware that rural areas. so it seems to me natural to talk tealand address you. it

they'll have monday off and open up a series at home against seattle. berg against very gas, and probably o'hara will make the start on thursday against ryan smith coming off the d.l. the orioles get back against seattle playing six times in seven days. orioles need to battle back here. down 5-0. markakis has the only o's hit so far. cahill sing the in the first inning. the orioles offense is going on the downside at the time the oakland pitching has a big upside. the orioles stabbed in april. .371 in april in may went up to .5.08. here in june they're at .184 e.r.a so far in june. >> buck: were a bunch of kid pitchers. only by age they pitch with a lot of savvy. cahill 21 years old, then ben who will pitch tomorrow he is 22. will be 23 until september. >> gary: 1-2 delivery. kennedy over. a's are doing what the orioles are doing only their rookies are younge

the first time i came to seattle was in 1962. the mountain to about one day when i was here. was city can match that? of the waterfront, the berries, the smith our everything that you know, so well i was fascinated. the thing that overwhelmed me, i was about 23 years old and walking up and down the streets of downtown i did not have any wheels. i was fascinated with the faces. the mixture here growing up in kansas city as they did in the hearts of america i was not used to such diversity even one generation ago. not only black and white but asian, even more than that i kept running into american indian faces then i really flipped out one afternoon when i came across an inuit and later that day and then i thought all of north america comes together because than and those combinations but feel people who run america will not be happy but to see the crosses of the world i thought in this that way is the fulfillment as i see it what we're doing in this nation. on that second book tour i was stopping to get a haircut and talking with the man sitting next to me while we were both w

think -- every base i have been on from fort lewis in seattle to fort bragg to fort jackson he has done his training at fort mead. these soldiers -- everyone has to understand, they're so -- they love what they do in the duet for love of country. host: thank you. the video we're showing is scenes from baghdad and other cities. this is part of the day of dilution -- jubilation as declared by the iraqi government. john is on the phone from north carolina. caller: good morning, it is a good day for the iraqis. the invaders are pulling out of their cities. it dick cheney, his daughter, and all the neocons want to keep the invasion's going forever let them put on the uniforms and go

seattle is better than that at .231. >> jim: 1-0 on reimold. a high pop up down the rightfield line. a long run for cust. still coming on, and he won't get there. but its foul. good hussle by jack cust. that ball hung up. so reimold will come back with a count of 1-1. mazzaro making his second big league start. and look at that, since may the 24th, the starters only second to seattle. >> buck: and that third team, that's the team that got the whole slump starts sh the detroit tigers with verlander and edwin jackson finishing up the home stand. so they've run into some hot pitching staffs. >> jim: camden fouled it off. the orioles on this trip in the five games have scored only ten runs and four of those came in the loss last night. >> buck: you just can't compete in the american league when you score that few runs. i don't care who you are, you have to score more runs than that, i don't care who you're pitching against. it's just difficult to keep the american league teams down under 4 runs. >> jim: reimold homered last night. he now has 6. the

you know, obviously, his last appearance in seattle was the one that finallized it. walker was a great teammate and a tremendous person on the club for us. he totalllly understood and, yo know, we just left it at that. but i'm -- we'll miss what he brought other than, you know, just out there pitching because, like i said, he was a great teammate. he earned a lot of respect and had been through the wars for a long time. >> >> amber: now, it's alberto castillo's job to bring something to the team. he does have big league experience. he was with the team a little bit last year. he told me down in aaa, his job was to throw that in a 3/4 position. he was sidearming a lot. he has been consistent with the arm strength. he is ready to take on the oakland a's, if he has to. last year with the oriole, they were hitting .256 against him -- lefties were hitting .256 against him. we'll see. a lot of left handers in that oakland line-up. we'll see if he is called as a left handed specialist, jim and rick. >> jim: thank you, amber. jamie walker is no longer on the club and we'll s

then in the louisville and seattle cases, he said the way to end discrimination on the base bases of rate is to stop discriminating on the bases of race. so he feels pretty strongly about that and he's got some colleagues on the court that feel pretty strongly about it, too. i have a feeling about the narrowness of the northwest austin decision, it was one of those april arguments where there isn't very much time to get everything done, they've got to be done by the end of june, the strip search case, which i guess we're going to come to later was also a late april argument, and the oral argument, the tenor of the oral argument was a whole lot different than what the decision came out. you look at those two cases that look like they were compromises because it might have been hard to achieve a five-vote majority and write a powerful opinion sweeping broadly, and so the court found a narrow ground in each case and the strip search case, which we'll get to, the conduct was unconstitutional but the school district wasn't -- the individuals weren't going to be liable for it. so everybody

and then they went to seattle. a tough place to hit. oakland, and then seattle, came back here, and atlanta pitched pretty well. the mets pitched pretty well. florida pitches real well and the only soft spot is in philadelphia. and they swept that series. >> rob: who doesn't pitch well? >> jim: 15-15 games, yeah. >> rob: and given up a ton of home runs. >> jim: gwen, the peaks and valleys have something to do with the teams you're playing. >> jim: here is oscar salazar who has been red hot despite infrequent at-bats. it is amazing how he stays ready. >> jim: he can flat ow hit, jim. that's my answer to that question. he was hitting .372. she 7-17. even felix pie, forget the defense, he was 5-11 this month. wigginton is red hot. >> jim: wigginton-13, 26. >> jim: how are they losing? >> rob: pitching. >> jim: yeah. >> rob: everybody needs pitching, though. >> jim: except the red sox. >> rob: had they not picked up brad penny and john smoltz, where do you think they would be? matsuzaka is on the disabled list now. >> jim: and buchholz, mas

on monday in seattle he was fabulous. he pitched seven strong innings. five base runners in all and struck out 7, his numbers on the year 2-0 over his four starts with an e.r.a. of 4.15 which is improving. and buck martinez, it's nice to have the confidence in the mound. they're looking for him to win the closing after the opener. >> he retired the last 14 batters that he face and he used a four-seam fastball affectively. you can see in his major league career he has a good e.r.a. and a 20-17 recordment he got away from that two starts ago in that he used the two seam fastball too much but the four seam sets up a very affective curveball. >> the orioles are turning to younger player as this transition continues. rimed old will be in the number two spot as dave tremly has shuffled things up. and he knows how to hit the long ball. >> reimold has power. he hit this three run home run against ziegler last night and he's been consistent with the power production. three-run homers we mentioned and leads the american league rookies in rbis. he's not hitting the

you go to seattle, they usually in the past have played very well against seattle. this year, seattle pot little better offense against them than they did and you go to oakland. absolutely no excuse for playing well in oakland. i think they ran into a buzzsaw with their young guys with their staff that pitched a lot better. there's no excuses for some of it. some of it is explainable by look at the numbers on defense. >> most teams have luis gonzalezing -- losing records on the road. for more on tonight's game, back to south florida and check in with amber theoharis. amber? >> hi, tom. we'll have an update on koji uehara. we've known for a couple days now that he said his arm was feeling fatigued, but now it's being described as soreness. so, tomorrow, when the team returns home to baltimore, he will be examined by the team doctor, dr. wilkins. based on that examination, orioles will determine whether or not he is able to make his scheduled start on sunday against the nationals. now, it is no secret that this injury is just the latest in a long list of what many mig

and then after an off day off monday, we'll see the seattle mariners again, three straight day all on masn hd, all starting at 7:00 7:00 p.m.. >> gary: ♪ there is a moon out tonight. beautiful moon. ground ball towards short. andino again, there is one and there is two. andino playing a spectacular shortstop in this game has made two great plays that have resultd in double plays. does it again here. diving, gets the flip and look how much time they had at first. hey. don't move. for the next minute, i'm gonna show you what it's like to have verizon fios. these are your widgets, they let you put whatever you're watching down here, while you check out local traffic, weather, even your news up there. i've got a news flash you're out of mayo. how did you get in here? door was open. you'd have tons of ways for you to search content: by actor, director, any word at all. what about chicken? chicken's fine. any word. no i mean do you have any chicken? i want to eat some chicken. and one of the coolest things you can do with fios... ...is stream your music and your photos from your computer

seattle taking care of baltimore. and they're in extra innings in cleveland as well. >> the st. jude classic, the final event for the u.s. open next week. phil mikel son, back for the first time since his wife's breast cancer diagnosis. he will play the u.s. open, and then after that they will -- phil started red hot. birdied his first two holes. however, he would double bogie, and then turn it around on the front nine. he would birdie the 7th to finish at 2 under 68. he's playing his first tournament since the six-month suspension, on the par 4, ninth. john daley, nice movement and ball acceleration. daley, 1 under at the turn. however, things getting a little dicey on the par 3, 11th. probably should have used it, over the imreen. he would have to go to the drop zone. throe got mad, throwing his club. had a snowman instead. even his 2 over 72. so, after day one, brian gay, atop your leaderboard, he shot a 64. jose maria ole thawbal who will go to the golf hall of fame later. with a 66. there you see retief goosen, shot a 68. at the left, phil mickelson talked about his round a

. >> buck: seattle and minnesota, a pitcher's duel there. in the 7th inning, it's 1-1. franciscolyliriano against felix hernandez. obviously this day was scheduled for number 1 starters. as cc sabathia was scheduled to go for the yankees. >> gary: teams on june 1 that are in first place since division play started, 66% of them go on to the post-season. 66% of teams in playoff positions. swung on and missed and so gonzalez comes in and gets a strikeout, retires the side in order. we go to the bottom of the 8th inning. 9-1. these are your widgets, they let you put whatever you're watching down here, while you check out local traffic, weather, even your news up there. i've got a news flash you're out of mayo. how did you get in here? door was open. you'd have tons of ways for you to search content: by actor, director, any word at all. what about chicken? chicken's fine. any word. no i mean do you have any chicken? i want to eat some chicken. and one of the coolest things you can do with fios... ...is stream your music and your photos from your computer to your tv. slidesho

john is on the phone from seattle. good morning. caller: good morning, a want to comment on the fact that i am an active duty military now. it is great that we're trying to turn it over to the iraqi government, but we still have hundreds of thousands of troops deployed all round the world on the basis of peacekeeping missions. what really is the overall goal of withdrawing troops from iraq? and putting into place a very unstable government? a non-democratic government? we put into place on the fact that we're trying to put in a minority regime. host: steve a sense in this tweet. -- sends this tweet. here's another headline, this one from miami. it concerns the coup in honduras. and "this date" newspaper has politics on its pages with governor sanford said he will serve as best he can and of lt. bower is saying let's move forward. if the governor resigns -- but yesterday the governor says he has no intention of resigning. this late website has some of -- the slate website has some of the-mails from gov. sanford and maria in argentina

games its way they've done with no offense, the only game they really won was a 1-0 ballgame up in seattle. you have to tart considering shaking everybody up and start moving some guys in that are doing the job. >> and brian bass certainly did the job today, getting them out of a jam in the first and pitching four and a third innings. we're going to revisit with jim hunter and buck martinez. time for the dave trembley interview and let's return back to jim hunter. >> tom, thank you very much. and joined now by the manager of the orioles, dave trembley. a very tough first inning as rich hill had very little command of the you got out of it, very good by the bullpen but the first inning too much to overcome. >> we said the key for hill was to get out of the first inning. especially when they have the momentum going into the last game. series here. we didn't get it done in the first inning and walked people and the hit batsman. bass kept us in the game as the other guys did out of the bullpen. jones hit the ball, right there on the button. didn't get anything for it. nicki did twice. their gu

the only game they won was a 1- 0 game against seattle. scoring under two runs a game and 2-18 with runners in scoring position. that has been a good number for them all yearlong until recently. they have to turn it around. with that in mind tonight, dave is shaking up the lineup. >> gary: move jones to the number three spot, put markakis in the two hole. and the hottest hitter they've had in the last couple weeks in the clean up spot. >> managers lay awake at night to figure out what they're going to do to get the offense going. luke scott is hotter than anybody in baseball right now. so why not put him in the clean up spot. >> gary: another beautiful night here in oakland. orioles hope to take the next two. we told you there are orioles fans here. there they are. and they're getting in the way of things i'd like to do. with the money bar, i can move my money around instantly, so when there's more bills than usual, it's no problem. and i use the wish list to put any extra money aside for anything i want. being in control of my money feels

the seattle public library hosted this event. for more information about the library and future events visit spl.org. >> this summer booktv is asking, what are you reading? >> bob schieffer, whether you reading this summer? >> well, i just finished a book called big rich which is about the great oil fortunes that were made in taxes and it is by a writer named brian burrough, a writer for "vanity fair." is an absolutely terrific book. the best book i have read this summer and one of the best books i have read in i don't know when is a book called the held by katheryn stockish. and, it is the story of two black made and a young white woman, who lived in jackson mississippi in 1963. and it tells you more about the relations between blacks and whites come with what was going on in the south, the year that james meredith was enrolled at the university of mississippi, the first big story that i covered. this is a wonderful book, and i just recommended. >> to see more summer reading lists and other program information visit our web site

after losing two out of three in seattle, the orioles hope to get the offense going. the pitching has been there but not the steps. you can't make a mistake reimold got picked off in the 5th inning. 6th inning, aubrey huff picked off third. and then in the 9th inning, after getting a man on, a vic 'em out throw 'em out double play. dave trembley said they didn't beat us, we beat ourselves. >> buck: you can't afford to do that if you can't swing the bat. when you continue to make mistakes and erase base runners, you're going to lose. they have to eliminate that. >> gary: jeremy guthrie will be making the start. we'll have the line-up for you. when we come back, we'll be talking to guthrie's battery mate, the rookie, matt wieters. . for the next minute, i'm gonna show you what it's like to have verizon fios. these are your widgets, they let you put whatever you're watching down here, while you check out local traffic, weather, even your news up there. i've got a news flash you're out of mayo. how did you get in here? door was open. you'd have tons of ways for you to sea

seattle, that's the ballpark the orioles can't seem to hit home runs in. high fly ball to left. back on it is reimold. just in front of the warning track has it for the out. chugging back to first, anderson hernandez, one away. tomorrow the red sox will be here at orioles park beginning a three game series with the birds, tickets still available. they start as low as $15. always a lot of atmosphere here. jon lester is on the mound tomorrow for boston. >> rob: come out and beat back that red sox nation. >> jim p.: second best record in baseball. only the dodgers with a better winning percentage. >> rob: their fans travel well. they show up and bring their orange and black. >> jim p.: which is terrific. >> rob: i thanked them on twitter. i said, thanks for coming up, they set attendance records in d.c. three straight days. very nice. >> jim p.: the red sox set the benchmark i think to me for all major league teams, because they set the standard. it's a good way to judge, good yard stoic judge your own ball club. now, to do that of course, this 0-4 has got to stop. >> rob: you've g

ryan langerhans moves to the seattle organization, in exchange for mike morris. >> anytime that you can get middle infielders, you do it. morris is a middle infielder. i think the key there is that, as our crack producer told us, the connection here is that jim riggleman was in seattle, so he saw this kid play, likes him, and we're just guessing that might be where this trade stemmed from. makes sense to you? >> it does make a lot of sense to me, raymond. 474 games for langerhans, 107 for morris, .300 batting average. >> ryan, you hate to see him go. he's a right kind of player. he always gave everything he had. good defensively, ran the bases well. but there's just no chance to even play here. he'll probably go up there and he'll be an excellent fourth outfielder coming off bench, pinch running and pinch- hitting. change is good sometimes and he's changed around a lot lately. >> langerhans, a former member of the atlanta braves. a pretty good pitching performance for tommy hanson today. we'll touch on that. our 737s fly to over 65 cities across the country every day. woman over p.a.: t

presumptuous person am i to think i can write something down in my study in missouri and somebody in seattle or florida will want to read that? that i get a better and then i say here is one per cent per you keep going after these little straws come anything to keep you going especially to get the first draft done. the redo the whole letter but the first sentence if you're a writer or becoming a writer, this may help a little bit. >> you're new book is one of the dullest things i have ever read. [laughter] trust me, i read every word of it. i even read portions of it to my wife so she could see howled dole it was. [laughter] i think the word we're looking for is anal compulsive although i do know once they start a book i do not like to quit in the middle. anybody in that category? you keep going and you say damage but you keep going as i get older i read i can read faster and faster with a book that is not working but before i commit to a book i will start reading if i am just browsing if i quit or five back away i am not a quitter. [laughter] that helps a little bit. i am eager for your nex

we are at the meeting of the organization of american historians in seattle. in >> afterwards and several other c-span programs are available for download at podcasts. more with bethany moreton and nancy maclean in a moment. after words with bethany moreton and nancy maclean continues. >> host: welcome back to booktv after words, i am a nancy maclean, historian of the 20th-century united states at northwestern university and the author of a book called "freedom is not enough: the opening of the american workplace". which looks of the struggles for equality in the workplace by various groups after world war ii beginning with african-americans, mexican-americans and women in the conservative responses to those and looks at how those really reshaping of politics over the last 50 years. and i think through the research on that but i somehow came to be sitting in this chair having the chance to encounter a wonderful new book by bethany moreton who is here to talk about her book "to serve god and wal-mart: the making of christian free enterprise". which is just now

i think this is my tenth trip to seattle and so there are places in the city that i feel they belong to. as i mentioned when i began one is right across the street in the pacific hotel here and i spent three nights working on this story, i belong to just a little piece of that particular corner. i think we can get the younger feeling that they are connected to a place, that she began to behave differently and if there's one word that lies at the base of all of my ethical flaw is connections and i suppose if you look you can say that everything i have written really is a bad connections, to be connected to. i think people are connecting them are much less likely to commit atrocities. i like to think of adolf hitler in one of his office is having to photograph let's say a and frank, the 12 year-old girl who wrote for marvelous a diary while she was sequestered away in an attic in amsterdam and later the nazis founder and took her to the concentration camp and in her in. but if hitler could have had a photograph of in frank, the jewish girl, on his wall and underneath and had him sign i

then in the seattle and louisville cases he said the way to end discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race, so he feels pretty strongly about that, and he's got colleagues on the court that feel pretty strongly about it, too i feel about the narrowness of the northwest austin decision, one of the those april arguments where there isn't much time to get everything done. they have got to get everything done by the end of the june. the strip search case, which we're going to come to later was also a late april argument and the tenor of the oral argument was a lot different than what the decision came out. you look at those two cases that looked like they were compromises because it might have been hard to achieve a five-vote majority and write a powerful opinion, sweeping broadly and so, the court found a narrow ground in each case, in the strip search case, which we'll get to the conduct was unconstitutional, but the school district wasn't going -- the individuals weren't going to be liable for it, so everybody won, so that could have been part of

was to the seattle mariners or randy jones to the seattle mayoriers. let's go alex rodriguez from the mayoriers. they tray traded those guys away and immediately played in the playoff situation with an opportunity to go to the world series, playoffs. >> the text x rangers trade alex rodriguez. and he goes to tyankees and they go to the playoffs. that is his drawing pow tore the ball club now. i'm not saying trade brian roberts at all. i don 't want to see him go. i love watching him play. he is one of my favorite players. but if somebody comes through with a blockbuster deal that would put the orioles in pennant contention immediately, i would say make the deal. it is all about winning. it is not about one player at all. it is not about eddie murray or cal ripken or guys that were all part of the nucleus of our ball club back then. it is about the team winning and making the kind of deals it took hank peters took to bring the winners back here to the orioles. that's the only thing i look for. i don't want to see brian roberts go for nothing. in order t

as you recall parted company two years ago in extremely important case called parents involved, the seattle and louisville school case where the chief justice wrote for a plurality on which he said the racially conscious efforts the louisville and seattle school boards had taken to prevent resegregation of their public schools, were not supported by a compelling state interest that the city of louisville, kentucky had no maintaining of integration. interesting point. and justice kennedy said i can't sign that coming in is more complicated than that, i can send this opinion. of course, they have a compelling state interest in maintaining integration given their history. however, i think that is steps that they have taken on a sufficiently narrowly tailored to serve that interest so i agree on the bottom line these plans are unconstitutional but i don't sign of the plurality opinions. so there is a fair amount of daylight and will be interesting to see what happens. which brings me to a case that they have decided. and brent the court decided is the section five voting rights case. very inter

also took with me in from seattle who grew up in iran who is a filmmaker in the united states, wonderful man named abdu and we had the government from iran who was our guide and security guy and made sure we didn't get in trouble and so on. i wanted to have an iranian that could speak the language and negotiate so we were not going to be duped. a lot of people figure well, this sayed, they felt he was going to shelter me from the thing but honestly he was a blessing. i needed him, he was dealing with security problems because every made -- bank and will communicate, there's overlapping business and we're constantly getting busted by security people and having to pick on the tripod and go somewhere else and and side the minder was sorting through this. also he would answer the questions and explain to people what we were doing and help offset the show that we wanted to get. his responsibility was to follow the camera. if i was leaving the crew i could go anywhere i wanted. people don't think you can do that, you can. but he had to be there with the camera to protect the camera and make su

he might have gone from there to seattle. nats have plenty of time to build a couple of rallies to get back in this game. romero, 58 pitches in his first three innings, so he's probably not on schedule for more than five or six today. both teams are going to be into their bullpen, the most pitches he's thrown this year, his last start. it took him 109 pitches to go through seven at philadelphia. phillies have a 1-0 lead against baltimore. phillies have lost five in a row, but still lead the mets by 2 in the east. left field. did he get it? no. right at the barrier, about 345 feet away. josh bard, another 5 feet, and a 3-run ball game. the wind is blowing in from left field across the field. >> that didn't help. >> no. see the canadian flag out there behind the bullpen. >> martis a 1-pitch out. overbay to romero, two down. top of the order, guzman, talk about the oldest player in blue jays history. >> that's a good call for the catcher. >> hall of famer, you talked to him a couple weeks ago on your radio show. >> because he wa

two years ago, the seattle school district desegregation court, overcame the landmark decision. they failed to recognize the struggle for equality, and this was long after brown vs. board of education. it may have ended -- but this did not end defacto. justice stevens wrote, please read this, in the case that the chief justice opinion twisted brown vs. board of education in a very cruel way. the chief justice -- they approached the case, they said that the law is not an exercise in mathematical logic. what we do with judges we could do with computers, i never want to see that day. a chief justice with real-life experience, he made certain that this would be a unanimous decision. if they could accept this -- in contrast to the roberts scored, and desegregation decision, they said they would depart from the precedents of the court. the supreme court will issue one of its most important decisions in years, the constitutionality of the voting rights act. the voting rights act is a time- honored way to prevent discrimination. the court has always of held the constitution, i have to t

he's threw an outstanding game against seattle, seven inning shutout and had seven strikeouts and gave up two hits. curve is the key to his game, there is no doubt about it. one of the best curveballs i've seen here, even though he's left handed since monicker won 16 games in 1983 with the orioles. he's already got 22 strikeouts in 21 and two third innings. that's an outstanding ratio. one per inning is what you look for. rich hill has been outstanding at that so far this season. >> the oakland a's send a rookie pitcher mazzaro. >> last year he was 15 and 6, and so you can see why the a's want to see what he can do. the first game against the white sox, very tough lineup, 6 and a third inning only gave up three hits and no runs. he's a bit of a finesser. he's a picker. i don't mean he's a guitar player, he tries to hit corners. one of his biggest problems is he walks a lot of guys. that will get you in trouble. so far he's managed to pitch his way out of trouble because what is the saying, tom, nothing good ever happens after a walk. and so i'm hoping today that the orioles can prove t

these two teams have struck ot the fewest teams, houston, seattle and yankees. yet tonight, berken has 7 strikeouts against this mets team, which has the fewest strikeouts in the majors that he's doing it again against. martinez grounded out his firt time up. and that one in the air to let center field. jones coming over. >> jim: mr. bobblehead. he got a new glove today. it weighed about 7 pounds. i said you cannot use that glove. it looks pretty, he goes no, that's just -- they send it to me, and i said don't bring it out. nobody will want to dance with you out there with that glove. >> gary: here's castillo, and the unusual shift as they move scott over to the line way in. jones in center playing like a softball center field. markakis straightaway in right. and it is inside. two down. castillo has the only hit for the mets, a single that came in the third inning. other thing berken is doing he lasted 4 and a third, and 3 13 in innings pitched. grounded to second base. right now, berken is dominatig through five. 

toronto 12, seattle 11. chicago 11 and the orioles ten of their lost 20. that's a base hit into right field. so luke scott picks up a lead off single. the orioles get the lead off man on. >> buck: when you don't score many runs, 1-9 in their last ten games. i don't care how well you're pitching, we know kansas city has pitched but you've got to score some runs. >> gary: all of those clubs you saw there had real tough times when you're getting three or less runs per game. aubrey huff at the plate. he's grounded out twice. 0-6 in the series. five hits on the board for the o's. 9, 11 for oakland. 5-0 for the o's. that one to short. nice stop cabrera. can't get it up in time. and neither can they get it over to 1 st. so runners on at 1 st and 2nd. >> buck: be a base it hit as cabrera had to slide on his knee and couldn't get the ball out of the glove cleanly. see the possible once it hits the ground. everybody is safe. >> gary: gives a whole new meaning to the term the hole at shortstop. >> buck: that's going to be it for trevor cahill.

seattle has won six of its last seven, hernandez gets the win, 4-0 in his career at camden yards, and the ms win it 4-1. let's go to fenway. tying run on second, top nine, papelbon, posada. flies out to left. and that is that. papelbon with the save, the red sox have beaten the yankees seven times this season without a loss, eight times overall in a row dating back to last season, 6-5 is your final, papelbon with 15 saves on the season. you see all the home runs, youkilis goes yard, so does lowell, teixeira a big night, damon and posada also with home runs. royals and indians in cleveland, that's gil meche, 4-9 in his career against the indians, looking good there, shin-soo choo swinging, mark derosa looking, for meche, 11 ks in seven innings of work. alberto callaspo crushes one, this blast came with the bases loaded, and we call that a grand slam. his first career slam since may 5th, olivo with a home run, the 11 ks for meche is a career high. just the fourth win in the last 19 games overall for the royals. >> and updating you, phillies-mets, they've got to extra innings, bottom of

in other news, the nats walked minor leaguers with the seattle mariners. for infielder mike morris. >> bob: thank you. ryan langerhans had d so succleague level. right now the number one national, they're thinking about, is john lannan. six nings, one run on four hits. he's given up three walks and the orioles only made him pa for one of those, as he walked the lead-off man in the first, second and thel face luke scott salazar and matt witr he in the orioles 7th. >>im p.: don't you think he's pitching the way he's pitched all june? >> rob: even going back farther, when he started to really step up as the acof the staff, there was a couple ogames where he was getting 3 and 4 double plays in the game. sometimes he'd stay out there and give up his first win of the season, he gave up six runs early. stayed out there for six, seven innings and we ended up coming back when the offense s clicking and he got his first win. i truly feel a lot of people talk about, your job as a starter is to try to win the ballgame for your team. forget about your stats or a

they put them on a train, shifted by rail to seattle, 17 by barge, put them on a train or a truck and ship them to delta junction. they all lived which was better because the national bison range shifted 4,000 in transit. no one knows why. they made it up here in 1920, then they hung around until farmers came into the dull thud junction area. they put one on a cargo ship, dumped those, put them on a truck and let them go, this was carried out by the fish and wildlife service. you just open the door, everybody runs out and you see what happens. then just leave the door open and they hang around. from 1950 to 1960, there were rumors they had been killed off by wolves or bears. you would see them walking down the road, and people realized they had shored up they had reproduced, 200 of them. severe winters knocked the heard down. they're not an indigenous animal unless you count being indigenous as 4,000 years ago. some people think they were in alaska and sold 300 years ago. that seems like bogus information. it comes down to one skull that someone found in anchorage that was recovered b

thus did the seattle supersonics, now the oklahoma city thunder, fall into kevin durant, an extremely scorer. is history repeating itself? oden missed all of the 2007-2008 season and was only able to play 61 games last year, degree which he averaged six points and five rebounds. we can't say he'll fail, but he doesn't z appear to be very fragile. and let's not forget the great tease that bill walton turned out for the city of portland. well, at least they got their only championship out of him before he left town. bowie was a nice guy, and oden is off the charts friendly and accessible. he's everything you want off the court. keeping him on the court will be the ongoing problem. >> my admiration for jim brown is both an athletic icon, and more importantly, a catalyst for change, second to none. but i really wish he would stop brow-beating michael jordan and tiger woods. brown wants them to be just like him, but that's not who they are. but that doesn't mean all they're doing is sitting around counting their money. tiger's foundation does more than simply teach urban kids how to golf.

but just two years ago in the seattle school desegregation case, and nearly divided supreme court under cut landmark decision, something i thought i would never seen. chief justice roberts opinion failed to recognize the struggle for equality that persisted long after brown versus board of education. segregation did not end with a case of brown versus board of education. it may had adjourned, of but it did not end. -- but it did not end. justice stevens wrote in a dissent in a case that the chief justice's opinion trysta brown versus board of education in a crudely ironic way. justice prius descent criticized chief justice's opinion as -- justice breyers descent criticize the chief justice's opinion. he says law lot is not an exercise and mathematical logic. if it was, we would not need judges. we could do it with computers. i don't ever want to see that day.
