" Lester takes the mound in search of win number 7 this evening this is there Herb Chambers infinity pre game show Lester enters its sixth -- six but he area for six say it last time out. He allowed three runs over six innings that was -- in Washington over his last five starts Lester is three and one while pitching to when he array of 218. 25 year old right handed rookie Jason -- and starts with the Orioles -- one in four through six starts with a -- over six. He won his Major League debut last month against Toronto. But his own four cents. I'm now -- inside pitch which is brought to you by Harvard Pilgrim Health Care to learn more about Harvard Pilgrim Health Care bits at Harvard pilgrim dot award. Here's all the -- pitcher and current Orioles television analyst Jim Palmer with -- stately home."

" immigrants I haven't seen the Orioles since. April and it really changed."

" Well they really have. You know I don't know. Whether that's translated into a lot more wins but you know we have no -- motors and a terrific job -- left fielder went and I'm not SanDisk as a broadcast of the royals. But apparently came along timing he looks to me that and I'm surprised because I had heard it used as discipline but. You know pretty good outfielder work on that very hard and he's got -- you know -- very strong. Looks like heatley is off the break it all mean obviously he can be pitched to him will be good test because the Red Sox got to do that better than anybody else. No no -- Adam Jones off to a great start or three more publicity at all last year. Have been a little bit of -- struggle this month -- 200 going into the weekend. With it but but again you know over 300 great runners in scoring position you know we have Brian Roberts market one of -- rates dealers and you know we have our golden boy met leaders are our owners get out of Georgia Tech who's ninety years ago so he's up and you know pretty good how are from the left side is get a it'll -- for Wright's ideas to moment but you know it's very difficult -- you know the comeuppance. And and learn he's number one what what it takes to stay here to graduate level but also which you have to do handle pitching staff. Learn the opposing hitters also learn exactly which -- guys can do and can't use so yeah this is a different ballclub and you know Wigginton it was very cold early in the year you know he's a bench guy he's been good in. Izturis has an appendectomy and Robert and you know probably not -- offensive player but he's he's played is that accurate -- I've seen -- after ratio one. Now landmark plan to a nine -- But he's made some gold -- so. Here's a little bit like allegedly second analog but he really help is about whether it be that. What about the two young stars and see in this series one of whom won the Jim Palmer award as the best pitcher in the system where you're gonna see Brad Ferguson on on Wednesday you know reminds me a little mark -- should be audiences talked to the ball and start piling up the dirt and you nobody's. They know he's around played you don't economy you know yet they steal a base against them you know attempt because he's so quick to -- nine of course we know he's going to have to be Josh Beckett -- not going to be easy. But you know and then Jason -- tonight as -- a guy that last year I think he won twelve games down it doubly -- And they started McGinn who we get invited to spring training didn't take it personally yeah. You know I got off to great start there it goes up to Tripoli and Arctic. If it's very well there because of injuries and then guys non performing well academy in Koji -- are two and is. There -- number times now on the DL. He's good chance it tonight but -- look at this is. Lot of young guys you know having an opportunity that that -- play against what I call the gold standard the American League and maybe baseball you know the Red -- so. I don't know how it's going to translate as far as again wins and losses but it's -- great."

" on lesser privileges say the confrontations you have with Jim Rice who will join you very soon it Cooperstown. He had to eighteen with nine home runs and 87 at bats -- four strikeouts but he remembered."

" Well you know I remember that QB -- it was our first base coach anonymous in Indian. Where -- cubs it was a general manager in. He said you know they get this neglected down and Israel keeps -- balls over the right field while he was talking about Jim Rice and then. You know I mean I had seen when accurate -- offers him a way that went out what they practice so we and the Bentley and a much in disguise it -- long fly balls to right field. But the first year I think. He -- got one broken bat single up the middle and then it'll run Meehan. I've never pitches that we LaDainian quality guys -- now and you know it and the pesky pole and -- sit on our even as an -- By you know -- and I used to play a lot of golf together and at Sonoma on and off the field and you know I'm really happy got all of name any news. You know one of the dominant offensive players in the seventies and you know I -- in the season. I can't imagine you know be an African American grown up from Boston and you know we had to you know when in Atlanta and yet and all that but. He was one. Look at where I told me today you know we -- in Boston back in April it was important that speech and -- I said. The guys election note it's too long because -- and -- in the background so anyway you know it's got an interest -- the two guys get dinner Rickey Henderson who wore me out. And Jim -- you know I still remember nine home runs you were supposed. But on -- Chris September -- 97 you on this -- argues that three run home run and I'd like about multi run home runs but. I'm really I'm really happy form. I should be a lot of volume as the -- that every year well there's you know audience you know obviously it's a very special fraternity and I still remember the first year ago when I went up there and -- again when it would deal more we got rained out on Sunday. At a dinner and amused had been feeling good and pass the microphone around instantly and got up and he said you know it's great to -- stand back. And you know. I mean that the one of those recognizes respect one you know I was very fortunate being adopted European I'd pick the right organization went -- to really great teams and it's great to be associated with some of the greatest Miller's all."
