00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:13,000
The 1959 All-Star Game was the first year in which the MLB held an All-Star Game doubleheader.
3
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:20,000
The first game of 1959 was held at Forbes Field in Pittsburgh, and the second game would be played a month later in Los Angeles.
4
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:28,000
This experiment of two All-Star games continued for just four seasons. The league returned to just one annual game in 1963.
5
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:37,000
In this first game of 1959, the American League starts 39-year-old veteran early win, while the National League goes with 22-year-old Don Drysdale.
6
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:42,000

00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:56,000
From Forbes Field in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the Gillette Fancy Razor Company welcomes you to the 26th All-Star Baseball Game.
9
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:06,000
Hello there everybody, with Jack Brickhouse. This is Bob Brent, ready to bring you the mid-season baseball classic between the outstanding players of the American and National Leagues.
10
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:13,000
As a sincere thank you to the men and women who buy Gillette products, we broadcast the outstanding sports events of the year for your enjoyment,
11
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:25,000
including the World Series, the World Invitational Match Game Bowling Championship, Blue and Gray Football Games, the Rose Bowl, the Kentucky Derby, and the feature fight of the week every Friday night.
12
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:34,000
This, ladies and gentlemen, is Forbes Field in Pittsburgh. No longer is Pittsburgh the smoky city, but instead one of the most beautiful and dynamic of them all.
13
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:41,000
The field was built by a German immigrant named Bonnie Dreyfus back in the year 1909, 50 years ago.
14
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:48,000
So this means that on this, the 200th anniversary of the great city of Pittsburgh, we also have the 50th anniversary of Forbes Field.
15
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:55,000
Bonnie Dreyfus had moved his ball club to Pittsburgh from Louisville at the turn of the century, then proceeded to win three straight minutes,
16
00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:00,000
after which he very pridefully decided that by golly, his players and fans deserved a new ballpark.
17
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:10,000
He picked one of the most fashionable sections of town known as Oakland, and fought the good fight through until he saw his dream come true, and they broke ground in 1909.
18
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:21,000
Four months later, in record time, they opened the gates, and they named it Forbes Field after the Revolutionary War figure General John Forbes, who had camped his army here.
19
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:32,000
So here we are now, 50 years later, half a dozen war years later, and of course, ready to enjoy one of the great things in our way of life that's been saved by all those tragic wars.
20
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Baseball indeed is underway, as now, ladies and gentlemen, the vice president of the United States makes his appearance down the left field line.
21
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:51,000
As he enters with the presidents of both leagues, and everyone concerned through a standing ovation on this brilliant, sunshiny, warm afternoon from Pittsburgh,
22
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:58,000
Commissioner Ford Bricks, President Warren Giles, President Joe Cronin, members of the Secret Service,
23
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:08,000
and the first gentleman, Joe L. Brown of the Pittsburgh Parks and Party, here with the vice president at home plate, and they will pop out, of course, in this free ceremony, the first ball.
24
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:16,000
And down below, also, in the group, Mr. Branch Rickey Sr., one of the great names of all time in the world of baseball.
25
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:26,000
Late ceremony, the governor of Pennsylvania, the honorable David L. Lawrence, is also down below, and is being congratulated by all the umpires, and he in turn congratulating them.
26
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:37,000
The 26th renewal of the tremendous All-Star Classic that had its birth in Chicago now comes on, has had only one interruption, some seven years or more ago, here in Pittsburgh.
27
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:48,000
They played, in fact, a little longer than that, the first night game in this area of the All-Star Classic, and previous to that, they had gone into the All-Star Game at night in Philadelphia.
28
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:53,000
Many of these things will be passing your way as the broadcast gets underway.
29
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:59,000
The home team will be the National League All-Stars, therefore, let's go to the American League batting order.
30
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,000
In left field, batting number one, Minnie Minoso of Cleveland.
31
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:08,000
Batting in the number two spot is playing in second base, on the White Sox, Nellie Fox.
32
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,000
In the number three spot, the center fielder of Detroit, Al Kaline.
33
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:17,000
Batting clean-ups from the New York Yankees, playing at first base, Luce Schowren.
34
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:27,000
In right field, the rifle-like arm of Rocky Colavito of the Cleveland Indians, batting number five, Gus Priandos of Baltimore, will be the opening catcher, batting number six.
35
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:33,000
That is in the lineup, the sensational home run hitting rookie of the Washington Senators, third baseman, Harmon Killibrew.
36
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:40,000
At short, batting in the number eight spot, Louis Aparicio of the Chicago White Sox.
37
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:46,000
And early wins, the great pitcher, with a record of 11-5, will be on the hill.
38
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,000
He also, as you know, of the White Sox.
39
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:55,000
For the National League home team, John Temple of Cincinnati leads it off and plays in second base.
40
00:04:55,000 --> 00:05:01,000
Batting in the number two spot, the home run swatter far out of the line of Milwaukee Braves, Eddie Matthews, at third.
41
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,000
Henry Aaron in right field, bats in the number three spot of Milwaukee.
42
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:10,000
The incomparable Willie Mays of San Francisco plays center field, bats number four.
43
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:16,000
Ernie Banks is the shortstop, and he bats in the number five spot, Ernie Banks of Chicago.
44
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:20,000
First baseman, Orlando Cepeda, will bat in the number six spot.
45
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:25,000
As they are now introducing the American League All-Stars, Ted Williams, the last name to be introduced.
46
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:32,000
Paulie Moen in left field of the Los Angeles Dodgers, he's playing in the number seven spot and hitting there.
47
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:37,000
Dale Crandall catches, batting here, the Milwaukee Braves, and of the Los Angeles Dodgers,
48
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:42,000
the fine young right-hander Don Grosjeel with a record of nine and six.
49
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:53,000
And now to bring him on, the fine voice of WDN in Chicago, the young gentleman who is the fine sportscaster for the White Sox and the Chicago Cubs, Jack Brickhoff.
50
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,000
Thank you very much, Bob.
51
00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:03,000
All right, as Bob Friess gave you the starting lineup, we won't have to do that again, but in case you didn't miss it when they come to bat, of course, you can box us out in case you want to score the ball game.
52
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,000
The temperature is 80 degrees. It's just a beautiful day in Pittsburgh.
53
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:18,000
When we came in from the airport yesterday, it was raining, and as we approached town from the airport, it got even heavier than ever, and we were a little nervous, and so was the cab driver, and so were the people down top.
54
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:27,000
But the weatherman was very confident all the way through, and it turned out that his confidence was based on some real authority, because this day has gone bright and beautiful.
55
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:34,000
We have a sun-stayed field. We have one of the most colorful settings, one of the most colorful settings, that's possible to imagine in the world of sports.
56
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:43,000
Therefore, we're going to be real, real happy for the rest of this afternoon with the excitement that's going to be generated here at the 26th All-Star Game.
57
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:52,000
As Bob told you, Vice President Nixon is here to throw off the first ball. He's standing up down there, the bots, right now, while the introductions of the squad continue.
58
00:06:52,000 --> 00:07:01,000
He is flanked by the Commissioner of Baseball, and also I know this one child, President of the National League, and the new President of the American League, Joe Cronum, also down there.
59
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:08,000
The chairman of the board of the American League is also here, Will Harris, from Chicago and from Willmatt.
60
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:17,000
We have people from just all over the United States of America here at this game today, although of course the majority of them will be rooting for the National League, because after all, most of them are from Pittsburgh.
61
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:22,000
Ladies and gentlemen, our national anthem.
62
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:53,000
Get ready now for the Vice President to throw off the first ball. It'll happen in the next moment or so. I believe he may post one here for the photos.
63
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:58,000
And believe me, there's a real quam of photographers down there near the President, the Vice President, Joe Fox.
64
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:06,000
Bob, what are the ground rules in this ballpark?
65
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:13,000
Well, they're very simple and very brief. It's a ballpark that if any ball hits the front of the rail, bounces up into the double.
66
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:20,000
And only that, anything that hits over the left field scoreboard, the clock, and the light tower is above the height of the wall on the home run.
67
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:25,000
And the lines along the side are in play, even into the dugouts on both first and third.
68
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:31,000
And players may climb up on the tarpaulin and catch a ball as long as they remain only on top of that.
69
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:35,000
They're going over everything down below, and the Vice President has made several touches.
70
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:40,000
For the benefit of the photographers, Dale Crandall will be the man to receive. And there it is.
71
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:46,000
And now we get it underway. Let's pause ten seconds for station identification.
72
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:51,000
WGY, eight, ten on your dial, and WGSM, connect. Let's move this down the round.
73
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:56,000
This ballpark is ideally situated for those that are great hitters of triples and doubles.
74
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,000
It is not a good home run hitting ballpark normally.
75
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,000
There have been only five homers struck over the right field position.
76
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:07,000
It goes 300 feet down the right field line, but goes up a good 120 feet over that.
77
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:14,000
And we're in that catastrophe, indeed, because it will take two paces to free that area up with the ballpark.
78
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:31,540
And I'll do one good job, and I'd pure
79
00:10:31,540 --> 00:10:34,660
I'll be on crowded shortest of shapes.
80
00:10:34,660 --> 00:10:38,660
hitting ballpark normally. There have been only five homers struck over the right field
81
00:10:38,660 --> 00:10:43,300
position. It goes 300 feet down the right field line, but goes up a good 120 feet over
82
00:10:43,300 --> 00:10:47,180
that. Jack Brickhuis, when I'll bring you up to date on that information a little later
83
00:10:47,180 --> 00:10:53,180
on. It falls out to 375. From 300 to 375, there's a screen in the right field deck.
84
00:10:53,180 --> 00:10:58,740
The balls hit off that, of course, are merely in play. Then it goes to 436 and 437 in dead
85
00:10:58,740 --> 00:11:04,300
center. The deepest part of this ballpark is in left center, 457 feet away, on a 20-foot
86
00:11:04,300 --> 00:11:10,580
wall. It is 406 over the left center side, 365 down the left field line, and a high scoreboard
87
00:11:10,580 --> 00:11:15,220
of some 30 feet that must be cleared. The ideal weather conditions prevail. This is
88
00:11:15,220 --> 00:11:20,140
nothing in the way of a hitter's win today. Just a beautiful afternoon for baseball,
89
00:11:20,140 --> 00:11:24,900
and we're so delighted to be able to present it to you on this, the 50th anniversary of
90
00:11:24,900 --> 00:11:31,340
Forbes Field, and of course, the 200th anniversary of the city of Pittsburgh. Now, as the last
91
00:11:31,340 --> 00:11:36,140
remaining shredded dot goes on, right down here, we'll be getting it underway in just
92
00:11:36,140 --> 00:11:41,540
a moment. And here to call the front four and a half of this 26th All-Star Classic,
93
00:11:41,540 --> 00:11:46,620
the veteran sports catcher of the White Sox and the Cubs, Jack Brickhuis. Down along the
94
00:11:46,620 --> 00:11:50,820
sidelines, early win, the last fellow off the field has just thrown a final warm-up
95
00:11:50,820 --> 00:11:57,020
shot to Yoki Berra. Yoki took over in place of Ray Berry, the White Sox pitching coach
96
00:11:57,020 --> 00:12:03,660
on Wolfman Catcher, who has been designated as the warm-up or batting practice catcher.
97
00:12:03,660 --> 00:12:09,140
Sam Derren had that job for the National Leaguer. The umpires have taken their stations. Al
98
00:12:09,140 --> 00:12:13,860
Bonik of the National League will be at the plate. Here come the National Leaguer down
99
00:12:13,860 --> 00:12:21,860
on the field. Taking their positions now, Wally Moon to left field, Willie May to center
100
00:12:21,860 --> 00:12:27,860
field, Hank Aaron to right, Eddie Matthews to third, Ernie Banks to shortstop, Johnny
101
00:12:27,860 --> 00:12:31,860
Temple in second, Orlando Cepeda at first, Drysdale will pitch the ball game to start
102
00:12:31,860 --> 00:12:36,860
with. He'll work a minimum of three innings, rather a maximum of three innings. And the
103
00:12:36,860 --> 00:12:45,860
other players, named by the ball players themselves, will work a minimum of three innings. Del
104
00:12:45,860 --> 00:12:52,860
Delano catching the ball game. Now the National League coaches and the American League coaches
105
00:12:52,860 --> 00:12:58,860
have both been posted out here for some time. Coaching for the American Leaguers will be
106
00:12:58,860 --> 00:13:03,860
Harry Kraft of the Athletics, who will be working at first, and Tony Cucinello of the
107
00:13:03,860 --> 00:13:08,860
Chicago White Sox will be taking up a very familiar post for him, third base coaching.
108
00:13:08,860 --> 00:13:12,860
The batting players, as I said, are Al Bonik of the National League. Joe Paparone of the
109
00:13:12,860 --> 00:13:16,860
American League will be at first. Augie Donatelli of the National League at second, and Ronnie
110
00:13:16,860 --> 00:13:22,860
of the American League will be at third. And on the far line, John Wright of the American
111
00:13:22,860 --> 00:13:26,860
League is watching those balls down the left field line, and Shag Crawford of the National
112
00:13:26,860 --> 00:13:31,860
League doing the same thing down the left. In the batter's box right now is Vinnie Minosso.
113
00:13:31,860 --> 00:13:35,860
Drysdale has won nine and lost six. It's one of the most promising young pitchers we've
114
00:13:35,860 --> 00:13:39,860
ever seen. Here's the first pitch of the ball game, his fifth. There's a drive deep to center
115
00:13:39,860 --> 00:13:43,860
field going way back for this Willie Mays, and he pulls that one in out there, about
116
00:13:43,860 --> 00:13:52,860
390 feet from the plate. Minosso, a 297 hitter with 13 homers and 51 runs batted in,
117
00:13:52,860 --> 00:13:57,860
with no time taking a good, healthy cut at pitch number one of this game. That will bring
118
00:13:57,860 --> 00:14:02,860
up the second baseman of the Chicago White Sox, Nelson Foss. Foxy, a 330 hitter, is among
119
00:14:02,860 --> 00:14:08,860
the leaders. He has two home runs and 41 runs batted in, and for him, the most unusual statistic
120
00:14:08,860 --> 00:14:12,860
is that on the eye totally, second only to seven riders on the White Sox, it runs batted
121
00:14:12,860 --> 00:14:20,860
in. There is strike one ball. Down Drysdale, we just saw throw 11 strikeouts at the Chicago
122
00:14:20,860 --> 00:14:25,860
Cubs back at Wrigley Field over the weekend. Has won nine and lost six. He throws sidearm.
123
00:14:25,860 --> 00:14:31,860
There's a fly ball foul down the third base side and drops just out of reach of a few
124
00:14:31,860 --> 00:14:35,860
of those fans down there, but also out of reach of the left fielder, Wally Moon, the
125
00:14:35,860 --> 00:14:39,860
third baseman, Matthews, and the shortstop, Bang, to also race out there. The low seats
126
00:14:39,860 --> 00:14:43,860
shut out pretty far onto the field, and there is a blank area, a ground area there, which
127
00:14:43,860 --> 00:14:48,860
is foul territory between the end of the bottom seat down the third base side and the beginning
128
00:14:48,860 --> 00:14:53,860
of what might be called the grandstand section extending on out into left field. Good spot.
129
00:14:53,860 --> 00:14:59,860
Oh, there's another foul off the left side, Fox. That one winds up for just a moment on
130
00:14:59,860 --> 00:15:06,860
the third deck. This is a triple deck stadium, by the way. And now, Dale Crandall, the catcher,
131
00:15:06,860 --> 00:15:10,860
has gone on to have a little talk with Drysdale. This kid throws aspirin tablets when he's
132
00:15:10,860 --> 00:15:14,860
right. He throws sidearm, and the way he became a sidearm, which is a little interesting to
133
00:15:14,860 --> 00:15:18,860
me, I happen to ride on the plane with Don from Chicago yesterday. He told me he developed
134
00:15:18,860 --> 00:15:23,860
a sidearm delivery as a second baseman in high school throwing sidearm normally. This
135
00:15:23,860 --> 00:15:27,860
is one arm. Fox struck out. There's a rarity. Elton Fox strikes out. He rarely ever does
136
00:15:27,860 --> 00:15:32,860
that. That's two downs. Brings up the center fielder, K-Line, a very courageous ball player.
137
00:15:32,860 --> 00:15:36,860
A fellow who's made a great comeback from a most painful and most distressing injury.
138
00:15:36,860 --> 00:15:43,860
He was hit by a relay ball on a double play. A first base was deflected off the first baseman's
139
00:15:43,860 --> 00:15:48,860
glove and it cut his cheekbone, broke the bone. He's been shot down pretty good. It's
140
00:15:48,860 --> 00:15:53,860
stitched up pretty well on this one. He's hitting 3.44. He just got back in action recently.
141
00:15:53,860 --> 00:15:57,860
He's taken over center field for Jimmy Dyches Detroit Tigers. He's done a marvelous job.
142
00:15:57,860 --> 00:16:02,860
He has 15 overs and 50 runs founded in. There's a curveball strike, a fast curve. Drysdale
143
00:16:02,860 --> 00:16:06,860
has about three feet on the curveball, and Don himself, strangely enough, thinks that
144
00:16:06,860 --> 00:16:10,860
he throws one of those curveballs three quarters overhand, but his own teammates keep assisting
145
00:16:10,860 --> 00:16:15,860
him still a sidearm pitch. He can't see it that way. That's a little outside. A good
146
00:16:15,860 --> 00:16:20,860
fastball. His fast curve is a real hummer, and that fastball, of course, when he's on,
147
00:16:20,860 --> 00:16:26,860
is very, very difficult to even speak. Drysdale, I might point out, came a farther last Friday.
148
00:16:26,860 --> 00:16:31,860
He hasn't seen that daughter of his yet. At one, 53 weeks old. Inside pitch, takes his
149
00:16:31,860 --> 00:16:36,860
back, got away. Count on the batter is the ball three and strikes one to Kalei. Two out.
150
00:16:36,860 --> 00:16:40,860
Nobody on base for the American Leaguers in the first inning. People still streaming into
151
00:16:40,860 --> 00:16:49,860
the ball park. Sunday's famous warm field and pitch first. Drysdale gets his side. Here's
152
00:16:49,860 --> 00:16:58,860
the motion. Wides up. Sidearm pitch. Kalei. Strikeout. Don Drysdale leaves the National
153
00:16:58,860 --> 00:17:03,860
League in strikeout to jump short wide. No runs. No hits. No errors. Nobody left, and
154
00:17:03,860 --> 00:17:06,860
we have the National League coming to bat at the moment. Now the American League takes
155
00:17:06,860 --> 00:17:10,860
the field. So at the middle of the first inning, the score is nothing to nothing. 50 years
156
00:17:10,860 --> 00:17:14,860
ago, the Pittsburgh Pirates first played baseball in this grand old park yesterday, way back
157
00:17:14,860 --> 00:17:19,860
in 1909. For the fun of a take, again, since how many Gillette razors were sold that year.
158
00:17:19,860 --> 00:17:25,860
All that? Well, it was actually only 385,000. A far cry from the nine million that you people
159
00:17:25,860 --> 00:17:30,860
won last year. And the way you're taking to bat you, Gillette 195, adjustable field view
160
00:17:30,860 --> 00:17:34,860
records will be set in 1959. But more than that, the Gillette adjustable means anything
161
00:17:34,860 --> 00:17:39,860
you ever laid against your face for all-out shaving comfort. Here's why. There's an adjusting
162
00:17:39,860 --> 00:17:43,860
color on the handle if you turn to any one of nine different degrees of edge exposure
163
00:17:43,860 --> 00:17:48,860
and angle. Turn this color one way, you get less blade edge. Turn it the other way, and
164
00:17:48,860 --> 00:17:53,860
more blade edge is exposed. Light beard, sweaty beard, tender skin, no matter what. You're
165
00:17:53,860 --> 00:17:58,860
guaranteed clean, long-lasting shades that comfort this something, really something.
166
00:17:58,860 --> 00:18:03,860
The Gillette 195 adjustable is so popular, many stores are out of stock. If you have
167
00:18:03,860 --> 00:18:07,860
trouble finding it, order one now from your dealer. You'll be receiving a new supply as
168
00:18:07,860 --> 00:18:12,860
soon as production permits. Only $1.95 complete with Blue Blades sensor and travel case.
169
00:18:12,860 --> 00:18:19,860
Leading off in the first inning, in the batting box now is second baseman Johnny Temple.
170
00:18:19,860 --> 00:18:28,860
Cincinnati's great second baseman. 326 hitter, four molars, 32 runs batted into the air.
171
00:18:28,860 --> 00:18:32,860
The picture early win of the Chicago White Sox, he won 11-0 off five so far this year,
172
00:18:32,860 --> 00:18:37,860
a 260 major league victory for this great, great performance. Triando, Sekecha, Jason
173
00:18:37,860 --> 00:18:42,860
and Seydl, we'll set those alpulas, gengulas in a moment there. The curveball, strike, strike
174
00:18:42,860 --> 00:18:46,860
one win. Of course, still has a fast flow, but it's not the real plays, there's a dry
175
00:18:46,860 --> 00:18:52,860
zilp roll, but he now resorts the guile and he has about as much root cutting as any picture
176
00:18:52,860 --> 00:18:59,860
you could possibly name. Curveball, one under the five, straight away to center, K-line
177
00:18:59,860 --> 00:19:03,860
goes back, it doesn't stop, reaches up, takes it. Set the line, one straight away to center,
178
00:19:03,860 --> 00:19:08,860
field about 340 feet from the plate. One away, the batter is Eddie Matthews, the long ball
179
00:19:08,860 --> 00:19:13,860
hitting, left-handed hitter, third baseman from the Milwaukee Braves, hitting 306 for
180
00:19:13,860 --> 00:19:19,860
the regular season, and he has 25 home runs and 59 runs batted in. The outfield will shift
181
00:19:19,860 --> 00:19:24,860
over radically for him, Colomito deep in right, K-line in right center, the left fielder Minoso
182
00:19:24,860 --> 00:19:27,860
has kipped it over the home playing deep, the right side of the infield, Foxman-Skowron
183
00:19:27,860 --> 00:19:32,860
is also a little bit deep, almost back to the outfield grass, first pitch is outside,
184
00:19:32,860 --> 00:19:43,860
high, ball one. Ball one. Stoke is a ready soldier, the fillies, and Danny Mershaw is
185
00:19:43,860 --> 00:19:51,860
a pirate, Sawyer is third, Mershaw is third. Bow ball, and here's a souvenir for somebody,
186
00:19:51,860 --> 00:19:55,860
almost made it to the press box. The batter in fact is landed right in front of the official
187
00:19:55,860 --> 00:20:02,860
scorers, three of them, Eddie Mondale of the Chicago Sun-Time, Jack Nodding, and left-fielder
188
00:20:02,860 --> 00:20:11,860
Minoso Pittsburgh, they first. Ball one strike one, now to Eddie Matthews, one away, nobody
189
00:20:11,860 --> 00:20:19,860
on, no score, we're in the first inning. Third ball, front on, change speed on Matthews,
190
00:20:19,860 --> 00:20:23,860
ball came to just start to slide away from him a little bit, even though Matthews is
191
00:20:23,860 --> 00:20:27,860
riding left-handed, and went with the right-handed pitcher, ball one strike two, early throws
192
00:20:27,860 --> 00:20:31,860
among other things, and occasional knuckler, if he gets two strikes on here like one and
193
00:20:31,860 --> 00:20:40,860
two which he has now, we're all two Islamic men with it. Third ball outside, two and two,
194
00:20:40,860 --> 00:20:46,860
ball two strike two, as we look straight away in the center field we see among other things
195
00:20:46,860 --> 00:20:56,860
the Marty Dreyfus monument, rather than Dreyfus. There's a long hit ball, he's right, way back,
196
00:20:56,860 --> 00:21:02,860
goodbye, it is a home run. Eddie Matthews in a long shot into the right field base, the
197
00:21:02,860 --> 00:21:07,860
low and sand, as an action league goes out in front of the ball, game by a score of one
198
00:21:07,860 --> 00:21:17,860
to nothing. Eddie Matthews took six on early-wet fastball and lined it about 15 rows in, into
199
00:21:17,860 --> 00:21:25,860
the lower right field seat, about a 390 or 95 foot hope. That brings up Aaron, his teammate,
200
00:21:25,860 --> 00:21:34,860
right fielder, the only all-star, elected unanimously. Aaron is hitting 370 during the
201
00:21:34,860 --> 00:21:39,860
regular season with 22 home runs and 72 runs batted in, and there is strike one ball right
202
00:21:39,860 --> 00:21:45,860
at the knee. Eddie Matthews loves this ball park, he hit a third of his total homers last
203
00:21:45,860 --> 00:22:00,860
year in this park. Strike one to Hanks, there's a foul ball. Low seat, back to the plate,
204
00:22:00,860 --> 00:22:04,860
the screen extends about halfway up to the roof, and if the foul ball is high enough,
205
00:22:04,860 --> 00:22:12,860
it will clear the scene and still go into the seat. Foul hit, strike three, Aaron struck
206
00:22:12,860 --> 00:22:18,860
out. That struck right in the triangle, that's two out now, Willie Mays is up, and we're
207
00:22:18,860 --> 00:22:22,860
doing a little research here, we find that Eddie Matthews' very first all-star hit in
208
00:22:22,860 --> 00:22:27,860
his fourth game, he finally got it, when he did it with the Dandies. Now here's Willie
209
00:22:27,860 --> 00:22:33,860
Mays, Mr. Excitement, the fabulous Mr. Mays. When the Giants come into town, Ernie Banks
210
00:22:33,860 --> 00:22:40,860
was not very, very lippy at all, so most valuable and less valuable, yells at Mays, here come
211
00:22:40,860 --> 00:22:46,860
the Willie Mays Athletic Club. There's one right back and with, Ernie stuck up the ground,
212
00:22:46,860 --> 00:22:51,860
the ball stayed in there and Mays lines out to the pitcher, three high on the side. One
213
00:22:51,860 --> 00:22:55,860
run, one hit, a home run by Matthews, no ever, nobody left at the end of one full inning.
214
00:22:55,860 --> 00:23:04,860
The score is the National League, one the American League, something, two, Papermate,
215
00:23:04,860 --> 00:23:15,860
Holliday, a dollar seventy-nine. This new Papermate writes every time, over handprint,
216
00:23:15,860 --> 00:23:21,860
fingerprint, squeeze or grind, guarantees, nuts, chips, glitz, glider, sputter, the new
217
00:23:21,860 --> 00:23:26,860
Holliday even writes over butter, you can take a piece of butter, now rip it here, and
218
00:23:26,860 --> 00:23:31,860
on a piece of paper you can take a tear, with an ordinary pen you can try to write a line,
219
00:23:31,860 --> 00:23:37,860
but you'll skip over the tape. Every time, then pick up the Papermate holiday pen, go
220
00:23:37,860 --> 00:23:43,860
through the butter test, once again, watch it right through the butter, without a slip,
221
00:23:43,860 --> 00:23:52,860
this new Papermate, guaranteed, nuts, chips, new Papermate, Holliday, a dollar seventy-nine.
222
00:23:52,860 --> 00:23:57,860
In the batter's box, as we start the second inning for the American League, is Bill Schallrun
223
00:23:57,860 --> 00:24:02,860
from Chicago and the New York Yankees, first baseman, a 293 hitter for the record this season,
224
00:24:02,860 --> 00:24:07,860
the Moose has 15 homers, 56 runs batted in, Drysdale, Byers away, Lohan away, and that
225
00:24:07,860 --> 00:24:12,860
is ball one. Schallrun will be followed by Colabito, Cleveland, and Triandos to Baltimore,
226
00:24:12,860 --> 00:24:16,860
and Wendelup, the National League, we're in the second inning. Outfield, as they will
227
00:24:16,860 --> 00:24:21,860
be for most of the day, is deep. Third round ball, first rounder of the ball game, up with
228
00:24:21,860 --> 00:24:26,860
it is Johnny Temple, the protocopator, and Schallrun is out. Fairly easy chance for Johnny
229
00:24:26,860 --> 00:24:31,860
Temple, the very classy second baseman for the Cincinnati Redlegs, that brings up one
230
00:24:31,860 --> 00:24:35,860
of the great young potential stars of the game of baseball, Rocky Colabito. Ted Wiggins
231
00:24:35,860 --> 00:24:39,860
and Schallrun tagged this fellow for future greatness as a home run hitter, Colabito is
232
00:24:39,860 --> 00:24:44,860
hitting 280 right now for the record this season, he has 24 homers, 57 runs batted in,
233
00:24:44,860 --> 00:24:50,860
he's 25 years old, and he also has one of the truly great throwing odds in the American
234
00:24:50,860 --> 00:24:58,860
League too. Mara Lusseford, six there, four, strike one, right handed hitter, stands pretty
235
00:24:58,860 --> 00:25:04,860
well forward in that batter's box, takes that long slugger's grip on the bat, Drysdale
236
00:25:04,860 --> 00:25:10,860
fires, six styles high, off to the right hand up on the roof, oh and two, one away, nobody
237
00:25:10,860 --> 00:25:22,860
on, the off field, straight away indeed, Rocky Colabito swings a murderous bat, try to get
238
00:25:22,860 --> 00:25:27,860
a better, Drysdale slips one past him, a knee high fast curve to the outside corner, that
239
00:25:27,860 --> 00:25:31,860
two down brings up Triando to the catcher, three strikeouts now for Drysdale who has
240
00:25:31,860 --> 00:25:39,860
retired the first five many space, here comes Gus Triando, 267 hitter for the year, catcher
241
00:25:39,860 --> 00:25:47,860
and first baseman for the Baltimore Orioles, he has 20 home runs, 50 runs batted in this
242
00:25:47,860 --> 00:25:53,860
year, there they pop up in the end field, first baseman to Feta has no trouble with it and
243
00:25:53,860 --> 00:25:59,860
Triando is down to retire the side, no runs, no hits, no errors, nobody left and so, at
244
00:25:59,860 --> 00:26:03,860
the middle of the second inning the score is the National League, once the American
245
00:26:03,860 --> 00:26:04,860
League nothing.
246
00:26:04,860 --> 00:26:13,860
Well Hank Aaron is the only strikeout victim, Wynn has but I'll tell you Hank will still
247
00:26:13,860 --> 00:26:17,860
be dangerous anytime he steps up there, the players played Hank a wonderful compliment
248
00:26:17,860 --> 00:26:21,860
they made him their unanimous all-star choice this year, never happened before in the history
249
00:26:21,860 --> 00:26:26,860
of the game, when it comes to electing favorites Hank himself has one he goes all out for,
250
00:26:26,860 --> 00:26:31,860
today Gillette Blue Blade, Hank has good reason to, no other blade, shavings are smooth,
251
00:26:31,860 --> 00:26:36,860
so easy that's because no other blades are so keen or so mirror-finished and here's the
252
00:26:36,860 --> 00:26:41,860
topper, Gillette Blue Blade are double edged, you get two of the finest finished edges on
253
00:26:41,860 --> 00:26:45,860
each blade, instead of the ordinary one you get on single edged blade, this means you
254
00:26:45,860 --> 00:26:52,860
get twice as many shaves per blade, save both time and money, so how do you pick for blades?
255
00:26:52,860 --> 00:26:56,860
If you don't have plenty, better get an extra package or two of Gillette Blue Blade, in
256
00:26:56,860 --> 00:27:00,860
handy dispensers that have safety compartments in the back for youth blades, they're plenty
257
00:27:00,860 --> 00:27:07,860
for 98 cents and for 49 cents, remember they're double edged for double shaving comfort, double
258
00:27:07,860 --> 00:27:09,860
shaving economy.
259
00:27:13,860 --> 00:27:18,860
Moving into the National League half of the second inning now it's for Ernie Banks the
260
00:27:18,860 --> 00:27:22,860
National League's most valuable player during the lead off, Ernie's hitting 302, has 23
261
00:27:22,860 --> 00:27:30,860
homers and 76 runs batted in, shortstop and what a great ball player he is. First pitch
262
00:27:30,860 --> 00:27:35,860
by Early Wedd is curve low and inside for a ball, ball one, Banks will be followed by
263
00:27:35,860 --> 00:27:50,860
the first and lone, the left fielder, big swing, back on curve ball by Early, one and one, Banks
264
00:27:50,860 --> 00:27:56,860
is one of the quietest of men and one of the most pleasant, he doesn't waggle at that very
265
00:27:56,860 --> 00:28:01,860
much in the battered box, he really brings it through, that foul dribbles over toward
266
00:28:01,860 --> 00:28:10,860
the third base dugout, where the American Leaguers are, ball one strike two, Ernie like
267
00:28:10,860 --> 00:28:15,860
Hank Aaron, he's not a big man, he weighs about 175 to 178 most of the time but he has
268
00:28:15,860 --> 00:28:22,860
that tremendous wrist action, that marvelous sense of timing, there's the ground ball,
269
00:28:22,860 --> 00:28:29,860
back third is foul, third base umpire, Ed Runge sticks his pointed finger over the foul
270
00:28:29,860 --> 00:28:33,860
line and the foul territory indicating very quickly that it was a foul ball, ball one
271
00:28:33,860 --> 00:28:39,860
strike two to Banks, outfield to the left and deep, score one oh in favor of the National
272
00:28:39,860 --> 00:28:46,860
League, we're in the second inning, outfield as usual to the left and deep, thanks Ben.
273
00:28:46,860 --> 00:28:50,860
That's pretty well hit there to drive the left center, the base hitters going all the
274
00:28:50,860 --> 00:28:55,860
way to the wall at the 406 foot mark, Ernie takes the turn and second and holds up, it's
275
00:28:55,860 --> 00:29:02,860
a base hit, the left center between Minoso and Kalei for Ernie Banks, a double for Banks,
276
00:29:02,860 --> 00:29:11,860
nobody out, that brings up the first baseman to Tata, Orlando, the great San Francisco
277
00:29:11,860 --> 00:29:20,860
giant first baseman is a 331 hitter, 17 home runs this year, 63 runs batted in, bat on
278
00:29:20,860 --> 00:29:31,860
second, nobody out, well would you have a nut here, no but, there's a very high fly
279
00:29:31,860 --> 00:29:38,860
to left field, Minoso comes in for it, still running hard and finally ducks away and after
280
00:29:38,860 --> 00:29:43,860
each deal the shortstop made the catch, it looked like Minoso's ball all the way and
281
00:29:43,860 --> 00:29:50,860
at the last moment he teared off and little Louie went out to make that catch, in short
282
00:29:50,860 --> 00:30:00,860
left field, I would guess about 270 or 80 feet from the plate, here's the left fielder
283
00:30:00,860 --> 00:30:07,860
Wally Moon, traded from St. Louis to Los Angeles this year, Wally's a 299 here having a very
284
00:30:07,860 --> 00:30:16,860
good go, he has 5 home runs, 37 runs batted in, bat on second, one away, service low, ball
285
00:30:16,860 --> 00:30:26,860
one, one of the best plays is triple deck, the right field area however is double deck
286
00:30:26,860 --> 00:30:42,860
but that's second deck, it's sure a tall second deck, foul off to the left out of play, Wally
287
00:30:42,860 --> 00:30:57,860
Moon, one of the left field starting jobs in a very hotly contested collection, Wally,
288
00:30:57,860 --> 00:31:09,860
Wade, Moon, Triathlete, number 9 on the back of his, white home for the ball, the national
289
00:31:09,860 --> 00:31:13,860
league is the home ball club, the right side of the field is pretty deep, Nelson Fox backs
290
00:31:13,860 --> 00:31:18,860
up there pretty deep, a left handed hitter, when takes plenty of time, glances over his
291
00:31:18,860 --> 00:31:23,860
shoulder, second turns and throws, the pitch is outside, the count is now ball two strike
292
00:31:23,860 --> 00:31:27,860
one on both, Danny Murdoch clapping his hands, yelling encouragement there from his third
293
00:31:27,860 --> 00:31:32,860
base coach, Fox, Zinom Mehdi Sawyer, the first base coach, manager of the Philadelphia Phillies,
294
00:31:32,860 --> 00:31:39,860
was able to forget his own problem a little bit today and concentrate on the problems
295
00:31:39,860 --> 00:31:44,860
of Fred Haney, ball two strike one, strike two, that's curve ball just above the knees
296
00:31:44,860 --> 00:31:48,860
to the outside corner, two and two now, for the ball game is one and nothing in favor of
297
00:31:48,860 --> 00:31:51,860
the national league, we're in the second inning, banks let off the second inning here with
298
00:31:51,860 --> 00:31:59,860
a two base, this is a beta popped up and Moon is at bat, one on and on second, people still
299
00:31:59,860 --> 00:32:06,860
coming into the foul part, with those red rubbers, set, they'll wind up the scores,
300
00:32:06,860 --> 00:32:14,860
throws, pitch is fouled, that's way out of play, a souvenir for somebody, ball two strike
301
00:32:14,860 --> 00:32:19,860
two now to Wally Moon, Wally had a tough job when he came into baseball a few years ago,
302
00:32:19,860 --> 00:32:23,860
he had to fill the shoes at St. Louis left by the great Ennis Slaughter and there was
303
00:32:23,860 --> 00:32:28,860
a lot of ill feeling when they got the Slaughter away and Moon was taking the place of an
304
00:32:28,860 --> 00:32:32,860
idol, Wally not only did it capably, he wound up being named rookie of the year and he's
305
00:32:32,860 --> 00:32:36,860
been a standout ball player ever since, he had one dip there in his career but right
306
00:32:36,860 --> 00:32:41,860
at this meta he's back on top again, flirting with a 300 batting average and good enough
307
00:32:41,860 --> 00:32:46,860
to play in the All-Star game, here's the set now by Wynn, blats the second, turns and throws,
308
00:32:46,860 --> 00:32:49,860
the curve is low, over the place but low, Barnick leaves that right hand down at his
309
00:32:49,860 --> 00:32:53,860
side, it's ball three, strike two, one thing about it, you never have any doubt about it,
310
00:32:53,860 --> 00:32:57,860
strike if Al Barnick is umpiring, he throws that right hand out there and he follows all
311
00:32:57,860 --> 00:33:02,860
over the ballpark, there's nothing subtle about him and for that reason he is considered
312
00:33:02,860 --> 00:33:10,860
quite a capable umpire, for that reason among many, many others, ball three, strike two,
313
00:33:10,860 --> 00:33:15,860
out the old still, pretty deep, just about straight away, that curve is outside and Wally
314
00:33:15,860 --> 00:33:20,860
Moon has worked Wynn for a long, that's what's meant on first and second, one away and brings
315
00:33:20,860 --> 00:33:27,860
up catcher, Del Randall, Randall hitting 277, has a dozen home runs this year and 39 runs
316
00:33:27,860 --> 00:33:32,860
about it and he's a real leader, a real field leader, he's one of those guys who made the
317
00:33:32,860 --> 00:33:36,860
jump from play ball to the major leagues and has struck ever since, he came up with the
318
00:33:36,860 --> 00:33:41,860
Boston Braves, where the Boston Braves instead of Milwaukee Braves and Del has got a real
319
00:33:41,860 --> 00:33:56,860
leader's side, if you want, there's a foul, out of play, umpire next, strike one. Randall
320
00:33:56,860 --> 00:34:01,860
in his lifetime in the major, he's down his ninth year, the 250 hitter, this doesn't sound
321
00:34:01,860 --> 00:34:05,860
too impressive but if you'll double check his history you'll find that he's got that
322
00:34:05,860 --> 00:34:10,860
one hit for every four official trips to play most of the time when it counted quite a bit,
323
00:34:10,860 --> 00:34:13,860
so get that hit one, it'll break your back, there's a curve ball inside, he swings and
324
00:34:13,860 --> 00:34:21,860
misses, 0 and 2, great handler of pitchers, great hustler and strictly a leader's side,
325
00:34:21,860 --> 00:34:32,860
0 and 2. Warming up in the full fence of the American Leaguers is Buc Bailey on the Kansas
326
00:34:32,860 --> 00:34:41,860
City Athletics, left hander, muckle baller, 0 and 2, foul, back up into the screen on
327
00:34:41,860 --> 00:34:46,860
the curve ball, still a no ball, strike two count on Randall, banks on second, Wally
328
00:34:46,860 --> 00:34:50,860
pulled on first, 1 to nothing ball game in favor of the National League, we are in the
329
00:34:50,860 --> 00:34:54,860
second inning at Forbes Field in Pittsburgh, a very, very famous location which as Bob
330
00:34:54,860 --> 00:35:03,860
Prince told you is now enjoying its 50th anniversary, a very impressive setting like Wrigley Field
331
00:35:03,860 --> 00:35:08,860
has a lot of eyes on the outfield wall.
332
00:35:08,860 --> 00:35:16,860
Strike three call, a neat curve, Randall looked it over and was crossed up, 2 down, 2 on and
333
00:35:16,860 --> 00:35:20,860
the pitcher Drysdale comes to bat, now Drysdale is one of the better hitting pitchers, he'll
334
00:35:20,860 --> 00:35:26,860
hit that home run for you every once in a while although, thanks for being a young fellow
335
00:35:26,860 --> 00:35:32,860
who got himself a record number of homers for a pitcher last year as pre-hits year, he
336
00:35:32,860 --> 00:35:35,860
was used as a pitch hitter for the first time the other night while not hitting into a double
337
00:35:35,860 --> 00:35:38,860
play much to his embarrassment.
338
00:35:38,860 --> 00:35:48,860
John Drysdale got a fine hand as he walked out towards the batter's box, banks on second,
339
00:35:48,860 --> 00:35:57,860
Wally Moad on first, 2 out, Drysdale was high school quarterback, should have made a good
340
00:35:57,860 --> 00:36:05,860
one, it would have been 5, Bob Hall, strike one, matter of fact Don was given quite a
341
00:36:05,860 --> 00:36:10,860
few opportunities to play college football and at one time did have his eye on a professional
342
00:36:10,860 --> 00:36:16,860
football career and as a quarterback, a 6 foot 5 quarterback under today's very tenuous
343
00:36:16,860 --> 00:36:22,860
professional football requirements he might have fit the bill very well.
344
00:36:22,860 --> 00:36:26,860
Young man from Van Nuys, California, this is out in the valley now, the San Fernando Valley,
345
00:36:26,860 --> 00:36:35,860
there's a swing, 0 and 2, when the gauge pitchers, take a look at how many he struck out as opposed
346
00:36:35,860 --> 00:36:38,860
to how many he has walked, if you want to do that with Drysdale you've got a pretty impressive
347
00:36:38,860 --> 00:36:43,860
figure because this fellow has struck out 133 and walked only 44 men this year, earned
348
00:36:43,860 --> 00:36:57,860
an average of 3.23. 0 and 2, we're going to miss, Wendgottum with that very very big curveball
349
00:36:57,860 --> 00:37:02,860
of his and that retires the side, 3 strikeouts early now in two in Hingley, no runs, one hit
350
00:37:02,860 --> 00:37:09,860
a lead off double by Banks, no errors, 2 men left, Wally Moad walks and so at the end of
351
00:37:09,860 --> 00:37:16,860
the second inning the score is the National League won, the American League nothing.
352
00:37:16,860 --> 00:37:22,860
Well leading off in the third inning will be Johnny Temple, one of those National Leaguers
353
00:37:22,860 --> 00:37:27,860
get a chance to bat and they're half of this inning, right up the American League in this
354
00:37:27,860 --> 00:37:30,860
road. You know you can put Johnny down at just another big league star who's all up
355
00:37:30,860 --> 00:37:35,860
to that new Gillette adjustable razor, for the wonder all it takes is a simple turn of
356
00:37:35,860 --> 00:37:41,860
the micrometer dial and you shut the Gillette adjustable to any one of nine different degrees
357
00:37:41,860 --> 00:37:46,860
of edge exposure and edge angle. There's a setting that suits your requirements exactly
358
00:37:46,860 --> 00:37:52,860
for fast clean shave, by far the most comfortable ever, that's guaranteed, be sure you see the
359
00:37:52,860 --> 00:38:02,860
Gillette, 195 adjustable, first chance you get. Let's pause 10 seconds, or rather 30
360
00:38:02,860 --> 00:38:08,860
seconds for safe identification. WGY with the USM connect today. When you're thirsty as
361
00:38:08,860 --> 00:38:13,860
a hard working southpaw in the mountain, pop open a bottle of Ferro Togavici, you see this
362
00:38:13,860 --> 00:38:18,860
perfect mixer is a great first fixer too. Ferro Togavici's sparkling extra dry tang
363
00:38:18,860 --> 00:38:23,860
cleanses your thirst as no smooth beverage can and it replaces vital minerals your body
364
00:38:23,860 --> 00:38:27,860
loses through perspiration. If you want real Vicky, get the yellow label, yellow label,
365
00:38:27,860 --> 00:38:32,860
get the yellow label, get the yellow label. Arvin Kelleber leading off in the third inning
366
00:38:32,860 --> 00:38:40,860
just taking a whack at the first pick and has popped up to the shortstop and that's
367
00:38:40,860 --> 00:38:52,860
one away and brings up the shortstop Aparicio. One on down and Aparicio the very, very excellent
368
00:38:52,860 --> 00:39:00,860
shortstop of the White Sox taking a ball on a fastball outside. Check that Willie May
369
00:39:00,860 --> 00:39:05,860
has came in as Banks the purple went out and made the catch on Kelleber's fly ball out
370
00:39:05,860 --> 00:39:09,860
back to second base. Willie will do that. There's a fly ball out the right center field,
371
00:39:09,860 --> 00:39:16,860
Aaron moving over, Hank is there, he takes it, Aparicio is out. Two down and we're probably
372
00:39:16,860 --> 00:39:24,860
going to get a pitch hitter. Verzat is warming up by the way for the National League. No sir,
373
00:39:24,860 --> 00:39:30,860
early winners in the bathroom stuff. We saw it, we saw it, Suri along the bat rack there
374
00:39:30,860 --> 00:39:34,860
in the American League. Although Early is a pretty good hitter himself. When he was with
375
00:39:34,860 --> 00:39:38,860
the Washington Senators one time he had a separate club in his contract with Clark Griffiths
376
00:39:38,860 --> 00:39:46,860
calling for X dollars as a pitch hitter. Early is 111 and lost five. Earned on average is
377
00:39:46,860 --> 00:39:51,860
3.83 at this point in the regular season. Won 260 major league games, 20th in the list
378
00:39:51,860 --> 00:39:57,860
of all time winners. Drysdale throws up that one, that one, strike one. The score is one
379
00:39:57,860 --> 00:40:01,860
to nothing in favor of the National League. We're in the third inning now with the American
380
00:40:01,860 --> 00:40:15,860
League, the visiting ball club at bat. Two out, nobody on. Strike, oh it's two. Drysdale
381
00:40:15,860 --> 00:40:20,860
is reminiscent of Yule Blackwell, the famous whip that's tied on delivery of his. It's
382
00:40:20,860 --> 00:40:27,860
almost a clock fire pitch that's blowing inside. Ball one, strike two. Frankie Frisch once said
383
00:40:27,860 --> 00:40:30,860
about Blackwell and I think he's saying today about this fellow that there should be a law
384
00:40:30,860 --> 00:40:37,860
against his being allowed to pitch that way to right handed hitters. One and two. Way
385
00:40:37,860 --> 00:40:46,860
outside, two and two. He'll throw that jammer at these left handers, he'll throw it right
386
00:40:46,860 --> 00:40:53,860
at their fists. At the 25 it is, it's thrown with almost a screwball motion. But it isn't
387
00:40:53,860 --> 00:41:01,860
a screwball. Strike, win, goes on swinging, throws the bat down angrily. No runs, no hits,
388
00:41:01,860 --> 00:41:10,860
no errors, nobody left and Drysdale has retired nine in a row and has struck out four of them.
389
00:41:10,860 --> 00:41:15,860
Three balls hit out of the infield on him. A marvelous performance. And so at the middle
390
00:41:15,860 --> 00:41:21,860
of the third inning the score is the National League won, the American League nothing. Well
391
00:41:21,860 --> 00:41:25,860
as we said it's a beautiful day. And even if it weren't, well we can't do much about the
392
00:41:25,860 --> 00:41:28,860
weather but we do know that there are going to be plenty more of proclimate days ahead,
393
00:41:28,860 --> 00:41:32,860
you know the kind I mean. Days when you especially appreciate the cleanly fresh feeling of a
394
00:41:32,860 --> 00:41:36,860
shaving cream shave. And there's no better way to prepare for that shaving cream shave
395
00:41:36,860 --> 00:41:42,860
than with just foamy, the instant lather shaving cream. Fast and easy and how. Just the touch
396
00:41:42,860 --> 00:41:47,860
of the foamy nozzle and instantly you have billowy, snow white lather. Lather so rich,
397
00:41:47,860 --> 00:41:52,860
so full bodied that just a little goes a long way. That's economy at another flush. Foamy
398
00:41:52,860 --> 00:42:00,860
contains K34, the exclusive antiseptic that destroys harmful bacteria on your face. Gillette
399
00:42:00,860 --> 00:42:05,860
foamy is available in two sizes, regular at 79 cents or the new Giant foamy, almost twice
400
00:42:05,860 --> 00:42:10,860
as much for only 98 cents. And you can get foamy with cool refreshing menthol added if
401
00:42:10,860 --> 00:42:15,860
you like. Take your pick from the Gillette foamy display at a store near you. Johnny
402
00:42:15,860 --> 00:42:22,860
Temple leading off in the third. And there's a strike call knee high, up that outside corner,
403
00:42:22,860 --> 00:42:29,860
strike one to Temple, who's out of the ball game with a fly ball to K-line center field.
404
00:42:29,860 --> 00:42:37,860
Well, Sangl's got Ryan Dernan warming up now, it has Haley. One and one. Ball one strike
405
00:42:37,860 --> 00:42:42,860
one to Temple. He'll be followed by Matthew, whose home run represents the only scoring
406
00:42:42,860 --> 00:42:47,860
in the ball game so far. Then the right fielder, Aaron, wins. Let's go. There's a high fly
407
00:42:47,860 --> 00:42:54,860
ball into short right center. Colomito is there and he takes it. Temple is out. One
408
00:42:54,860 --> 00:43:00,860
away, that'll bring up third baseman Eddie Mattson. Got a home run, a line drive homer
409
00:43:00,860 --> 00:43:07,860
into the right field grandstand. The lower back, last time in fact, getting a nice hand
410
00:43:07,860 --> 00:43:13,860
as he steps in. Eddie Mattson with 25 regular season home runs. The batter's box again,
411
00:43:13,860 --> 00:43:19,860
wins so there's a very high fly ball in foul territory. Garland pulls over to the low boxes,
412
00:43:19,860 --> 00:43:28,860
he takes it and Matthew is out. Two down, Hanger and a tank, struck out the last time
413
00:43:28,860 --> 00:43:38,860
in fact, getting a fabulous 370. After a long time, after the season opened this year, it
414
00:43:38,860 --> 00:43:45,860
became eminent that Hank had his eyes on a 400 season he may still have. Of course, the
415
00:43:45,860 --> 00:43:49,860
outstanding pitching feat in the history of this series is still Carl Hummel's 1934 performance
416
00:43:49,860 --> 00:43:53,860
when he struck out five in a row, six all told. The total of six strikes out to the
417
00:43:53,860 --> 00:43:57,860
record which is subsequently been tied by Johnny Vandermeer in 1943 in a night game
418
00:43:57,860 --> 00:44:02,860
at Philadelphia and Larry Jansen at Comiskey Park in 1950. We saw both games.
419
00:44:02,860 --> 00:44:06,860
Curveball, going on. Line drive right into the shortstop club.
420
00:44:06,860 --> 00:44:11,860
Aparicio just reached up for that one and little Lily took it, tire the side.
421
00:44:11,860 --> 00:44:16,860
No runs, no hits, no errors, nobody left.
422
00:44:16,860 --> 00:44:22,860
And at the end of the third inning the score is the National League won the American League nothing.
423
00:44:22,860 --> 00:44:32,860
Do you really want a deep cave?
424
00:44:32,860 --> 00:44:41,860
Then change the better, change the better with the brave and the braver by the double-chain.
425
00:44:41,860 --> 00:44:48,860
The ball game now is moving into the fourth inning and Luberdet is the new pitcher.
426
00:44:48,860 --> 00:44:52,860
Luberdet will pitch starting the fourth inning. Both Wynn and Drysdale finish their chores.
427
00:44:52,860 --> 00:44:59,860
Early Wynn who was last year's winning pitcher leaves with a 1-0 deficit.
428
00:44:59,860 --> 00:45:03,860
He made one mistake, he pitched that home run ball to Eddie Matthews. Drysdale made not.
429
00:45:03,860 --> 00:45:07,860
Now here's Luberdet, one of the great, great pitchers of his day.
430
00:45:07,860 --> 00:45:13,860
A fellow who has had more great adventures and more great accomplishments in his years than the National League
431
00:45:13,860 --> 00:45:18,860
then we have the time to tell you about right now.
432
00:45:18,860 --> 00:45:23,860
Lu in the regular season has won 11-11 at Los Angeles.
433
00:45:23,860 --> 00:45:28,860
He comes into the small game for the regular season average of earned an average of 4.01.
434
00:45:28,860 --> 00:45:33,860
He has struck out 49 and won only 22.
435
00:45:33,860 --> 00:45:38,860
Melvin Lewis-Bernett Jr. from Mackrow, West Virginia, 6'2", weighs 180.
436
00:45:38,860 --> 00:45:43,860
He scored down there at 19-26 on November 22nd. In a couple of World Series,
437
00:45:43,860 --> 00:45:51,860
who can forget that 57th performance 21-3 and lost nuts.
438
00:45:51,860 --> 00:45:54,860
Top of the batting order up now for the American League,
439
00:45:54,860 --> 00:46:02,860
Mini Minoso of the Cleveland Indians, left fielder, a 297 winner with 13 homers and 51 runs batted in.
440
00:46:02,860 --> 00:46:06,860
In the regular season, he's going to lead off. He'll be followed by Vox and Kalei.
441
00:46:06,860 --> 00:46:10,860
Mini is one of the most colorful of all players, certainly one of the great hunters of his day.
442
00:46:10,860 --> 00:46:14,860
He'll give 120% of himself at all times.
443
00:46:14,860 --> 00:46:20,860
1-0 to score now at the top of the fourth National League out in front and Bernett gets that.
444
00:46:20,860 --> 00:46:24,860
See how he strikes like one.
445
00:46:24,860 --> 00:46:29,860
Bernett is a real fidgety fill out there.
446
00:46:29,860 --> 00:46:34,860
He really gestures and goes through lots and lots of adding connections
447
00:46:34,860 --> 00:46:36,860
and talks to himself too, by the way.
448
00:46:36,860 --> 00:46:41,860
He'll whistle once in a while. You can hear him automatically whistling out there.
449
00:46:41,860 --> 00:46:46,860
And like he told us one time, he says, yes, you bet your life I talk to myself out there.
450
00:46:46,860 --> 00:46:49,860
And if things aren't going right, I answer myself too.
451
00:46:49,860 --> 00:46:53,860
1-1 is the count on Minoso.
452
00:46:53,860 --> 00:46:55,860
There's the ground ball to the right of the mound.
453
00:46:55,860 --> 00:46:56,860
Temple in for it.
454
00:46:56,860 --> 00:46:58,860
Temple picks himself up and throws.
455
00:46:58,860 --> 00:47:03,860
In time, you get Minoso who is really picking him up and laying him down that first baseline.
456
00:47:03,860 --> 00:47:10,860
Temple with great reflex action recovered from stumbling after going for that ball.
457
00:47:10,860 --> 00:47:11,860
One away, box up.
458
00:47:11,860 --> 00:47:22,860
Little Nell strung out the last time at bat.
459
00:47:22,860 --> 00:47:26,860
One out, nobody on. Four sitting.
460
00:47:26,860 --> 00:47:30,860
Yopfield channels up a little on Foxy and they're playing him just about straight away.
461
00:47:30,860 --> 00:47:33,860
He'll hit any field.
462
00:47:33,860 --> 00:47:36,860
That fast curve was a little outside off the corner, maybe an inch.
463
00:47:36,860 --> 00:47:38,860
Ball one. Our vantage point is perfect.
464
00:47:38,860 --> 00:47:41,860
We're directly behind home plate. We can see those pins coming in beautifully.
465
00:47:41,860 --> 00:47:46,860
We're just high enough so that we have just a beautiful perspective on everything that goes on down there.
466
00:47:46,860 --> 00:47:52,860
There's a foul ball down the right field side and it gives John Rice, the American League, a little work.
467
00:47:52,860 --> 00:47:56,860
Ball one, strike one.
468
00:47:56,860 --> 00:48:01,860
Wally Moo, Willie Mays, and Hank Aaron at left, center, and right for the National Leaguers on the field right now.
469
00:48:01,860 --> 00:48:03,860
Eddie Matthews, the third, Banks is short.
470
00:48:03,860 --> 00:48:06,860
Johnny Temple is second. Orlando Cepeda is first.
471
00:48:06,860 --> 00:48:09,860
The batter is Bethette and Crandall.
472
00:48:09,860 --> 00:48:10,860
One and one.
473
00:48:10,860 --> 00:48:13,860
There's a high foul ball and Eddie Matthews has a play on this one.
474
00:48:13,860 --> 00:48:15,860
Back to the coaches box and third. He takes it.
475
00:48:15,860 --> 00:48:18,860
Nelson Fox is out.
476
00:48:18,860 --> 00:48:24,860
Two down, K lineup.
477
00:48:24,860 --> 00:48:32,860
Burnett will throw an occasional screwball, and you can tell when he's throwing that screwball because he runs right off the mound with that delivery.
478
00:48:32,860 --> 00:48:35,860
This is Al K-line, struck out.
479
00:48:35,860 --> 00:48:40,860
Kill the time up.
480
00:48:40,860 --> 00:48:46,860
Has a pretty good battle going with his teammate on Detroit, Harvey Keene, for the American League batting leadership.
481
00:48:46,860 --> 00:48:51,860
Right at this moment, Al is second with a 3.44 batting average.
482
00:48:51,860 --> 00:48:55,860
Strike one on the count on him. Two out on the fourth inning.
483
00:48:55,860 --> 00:49:02,860
Burnett touches the cap, sticks the ball in the glove, tears down, gets his side, goes into his motion, throws a sidearm, hits the slow.
484
00:49:02,860 --> 00:49:03,860
One and one.
485
00:49:03,860 --> 00:49:07,860
Crandall fires the ball back to him, and he has so many, many times.
486
00:49:07,860 --> 00:49:09,860
And Lou steps off that mound.
487
00:49:09,860 --> 00:49:12,860
Just to give you an idea, we'll try to cover this guy's judges for you.
488
00:49:12,860 --> 00:49:16,860
He just wraps his hand across his letter, pick up the ruts, back ground, and he's covered his tongue in his cap.
489
00:49:16,860 --> 00:49:21,860
Rocks back twice, winds up, here we go, and that's low. That's ball.
490
00:49:21,860 --> 00:49:25,860
Gets the ball, turns his back to the plate, touches his left hand across his left hip.
491
00:49:25,860 --> 00:49:29,860
Now he wraps up the ball as he steps off the mound, turns around, looks down at the batter and the catcher.
492
00:49:29,860 --> 00:49:34,860
Takes the glove under his arm, takes the glove under his arm, takes it back on, takes the glove and it's tucked in his cap.
493
00:49:34,860 --> 00:49:39,860
Makes a motion toward his chin, tucked in his cap again after dropping the rousin back, hits his shoulder,
494
00:49:39,860 --> 00:49:47,860
throws the wind up out of his direction, and there's the pitch of Bob Wall on a play. Two and two.
495
00:49:47,860 --> 00:49:50,860
Ball two, strike two.
496
00:49:50,860 --> 00:49:59,860
And of course as Lou claims, the best pitch he has is one he doesn't use, the one he's been accused of is better.
497
00:49:59,860 --> 00:50:02,860
Tucks the rousin back, touches the cap.
498
00:50:02,860 --> 00:50:05,860
Little battle of nerves going on there between the batter and the pitcher.
499
00:50:05,860 --> 00:50:10,860
Here's the wind up. Throws the shot a little bit off the corner.
500
00:50:10,860 --> 00:50:13,860
Side of the knees, ball three, strike two. Two out on the fourth.
501
00:50:13,860 --> 00:50:15,860
The National League is leading by a score of one to nothing.
502
00:50:15,860 --> 00:50:24,860
The American League is back, K-line in the batter's box.
503
00:50:24,860 --> 00:50:31,860
And Lou Bordet goes through every motion a pitcher can go through plus a couple which haven't been put in the book yet.
504
00:50:31,860 --> 00:50:36,860
Let's go again. Let's reply. There's a foul ball high back of the plate.
505
00:50:36,860 --> 00:50:42,860
It goes over the top of the screen and the below seats back of the screen. It's ball three, strike two.
506
00:50:42,860 --> 00:50:45,860
Just over the wall we're looking at Cheneley Park.
507
00:50:45,860 --> 00:50:49,860
And we had heard about the monument to Honest Wagoners, but we thought the monument was inside the ballpark.
508
00:50:49,860 --> 00:50:56,860
It's just outside the left field wall over there in Cheneley Park in front of the Carnegie Museum.
509
00:50:56,860 --> 00:51:02,860
Three and two. Off the old just a shade left. There's a pretty well hit ball.
510
00:51:02,860 --> 00:51:08,860
That's very deep. Way back, back, back, back. It is over the wall. A home run for Al K-line.
511
00:51:08,860 --> 00:51:14,860
The ball game is all tied up. Al K-line runs one over the left field wall.
512
00:51:14,860 --> 00:51:17,860
Lou never did give up on it. Went all the way back to the wall.
513
00:51:17,860 --> 00:51:24,860
But finally with his shoulders raising the wall all he could do was stand there and helplessly watch the ball go over the wall
514
00:51:24,860 --> 00:51:28,860
for a game tying home run by Al K-line.
515
00:51:28,860 --> 00:51:32,860
Well, that makes the new ball game out of us. The score is one to one.
516
00:51:32,860 --> 00:51:36,860
We're in the fourth inning and Scholarin is up. Bill Scholarin.
517
00:51:36,860 --> 00:51:39,860
Routed out, temple dissipated the last time and pass.
518
00:51:39,860 --> 00:51:44,860
Bill by the way wears a corset at all times on and off that diamond.
519
00:51:44,860 --> 00:51:51,860
Result of a back injury. Helping around the house. There's the foul ball.
520
00:51:51,860 --> 00:51:57,860
Strike one.
521
00:51:57,860 --> 00:52:04,860
That's Mr. Al K-line first all-star home run.
522
00:52:04,860 --> 00:52:12,860
Strike one to Scholarin. Two out, nobody on.
523
00:52:12,860 --> 00:52:17,860
Foul ball. Oh and to Scholarin first game to our attention.
524
00:52:17,860 --> 00:52:27,860
Chicago has a prep school, Weber High football player and we knew him at Purdue as a left footed putter.
525
00:52:27,860 --> 00:52:33,860
Already got a chance to join the Yankees and get one of those real good-sized bonuses.
526
00:52:33,860 --> 00:52:39,860
$25,000 bonus.
527
00:52:39,860 --> 00:52:45,860
Oh and to. There's the foul ball. In the hole between Scholarin and Scholarin.
528
00:52:45,860 --> 00:52:50,860
Two out, Colavito is up.
529
00:52:50,860 --> 00:53:01,860
Well the national league fishing had retired 11 in a row before that first hit and the first hit was a home run.
530
00:53:01,860 --> 00:53:04,860
Bob Colavito is up.
531
00:53:04,860 --> 00:53:08,860
Struck out the last time at bat. Bat on base, two out.
532
00:53:08,860 --> 00:53:16,860
Right-handed hitter, as we said before, stands well forward in that box. He likes to get on that curve ball before he gets a chance to break on him.
533
00:53:16,860 --> 00:53:20,860
And there's the swing and there's a base hit at the center field.
534
00:53:20,860 --> 00:53:24,860
About three feet to the left of second base, William A. is munching the ball in.
535
00:53:24,860 --> 00:53:33,860
Scholarin stopping at second. Now with that on first and second, Triangles is done. Two down.
536
00:53:33,860 --> 00:53:42,860
And in the bullpen for the national leaguer, Dad Roy Faith. And he says his offense in the action in this game is beginning to warm up.
537
00:53:42,860 --> 00:53:47,860
In the meantime, Triangles is out to have a little talk with Berndette. They've been in this hole before.
538
00:53:47,860 --> 00:53:55,860
Triangles, the catcher for the American leaguers, the Big Burley fellow. Bob Shirley's partner, they have an insurance business together in Baltimore.
539
00:53:55,860 --> 00:54:01,860
He's in the batter's box, takes that wide stand. Gus has 20 regular season home runs.
540
00:54:01,860 --> 00:54:06,860
Now he's in bat with a chance to put the American league in the lead. It's one to one here, three-fourth inning.
541
00:54:06,860 --> 00:54:12,860
Two men out and two out. Berndette is in a jam.
542
00:54:12,860 --> 00:54:17,860
The outfield is plenty to eat for Gus. Center fielder Mays, dated a little toward left. There's a strike.
543
00:54:17,860 --> 00:54:24,860
There's a strike one. That's curve ball. Just below the belt about two inches inside the strike zone, inside corner.
544
00:54:24,860 --> 00:54:30,860
Strike one.
545
00:54:30,860 --> 00:54:35,860
Gowland and Colomito with modest leadoff. Gowland takes about a five-step of their second.
546
00:54:35,860 --> 00:54:38,860
Now he's second at the seven. As Berndette gets ready here at the pitch, there's a well-hit ball.
547
00:54:38,860 --> 00:54:43,860
He's to right center. Aaron and Mays running hard. It is dropped by Hank Aaron.
548
00:54:43,860 --> 00:54:50,860
Boy, did Henry make himself a running catch that time. That ball was hit over 400 feet.
549
00:54:50,860 --> 00:54:57,860
Deep to right center field. And Hank Aaron pulled it in with a long and who knows, maybe a game-saving run.
550
00:54:57,860 --> 00:55:01,860
One run, three hits, no errors. Two men left on.
551
00:55:01,860 --> 00:55:12,860
And close to the middle of the fourth inning, the score is American League One, National League One.
552
00:55:12,860 --> 00:55:23,860
Two, paper Mays, holiday, $1.79.
553
00:55:23,860 --> 00:55:29,860
This new paper Mays writes every dime, over handprint, fingerprint, grease or grime.
554
00:55:29,860 --> 00:55:34,860
Guaranteed not skipped, flip-slide or sputter. The new holiday even writes over butter.
555
00:55:34,860 --> 00:55:40,860
You can take a stick of butter, now listen here. And on a piece of paper you can make a smear.
556
00:55:40,860 --> 00:55:46,860
With an ordinary pen you can try to write a line, but you'll skip over the butter every dime.
557
00:55:46,860 --> 00:55:50,860
Then pick up the paper Mays holiday pen and go through the butter, sir.
558
00:55:50,860 --> 00:55:54,860
Once again, watch it right through the butter without a slip.
559
00:55:54,860 --> 00:55:57,860
This new paper Mays guarantees not to skip.
560
00:55:57,860 --> 00:56:08,860
Two, paper Mays, holiday, $1.79.
561
00:56:08,860 --> 00:56:12,860
We have a new picture now for the American League, Ryan Durin.
562
00:56:12,860 --> 00:56:15,860
Here's the flamethrower for the New York Yankees.
563
00:56:15,860 --> 00:56:24,860
It's done it with six flasks, and he fires that ball. Man does he fire that ball.
564
00:56:24,860 --> 00:56:32,860
You'll face Willie Mays, thanks to Fata.
565
00:56:32,860 --> 00:56:35,860
Durin in the regular season has won one and lost two.
566
00:56:35,860 --> 00:56:40,860
He's strictly a relief pitcher, but get this earned run average, 0.90.
567
00:56:40,860 --> 00:56:48,860
Struck out 47, walked 22. Willie Mays, lined out to pitch an early win the last time at Fata's under-batter clock.
568
00:56:48,860 --> 00:56:52,860
Here's a wide up, here's a throw, and there's a wolf ball, hung on, strike one.
569
00:56:52,860 --> 00:56:54,860
The score is tied 1-1.
570
00:56:54,860 --> 00:57:00,860
This is the first chance that many people here in Pittsburgh have had to see the American League stars who are performing today.
571
00:57:00,860 --> 00:57:09,860
They've heard about this Durin fastball. You can probably hear the gas that went through the crowd.
572
00:57:09,860 --> 00:57:14,860
On that first pitch, strike one.
573
00:57:14,860 --> 00:57:18,860
Strike two, another fastball. Knee high to the outside corner.
574
00:57:18,860 --> 00:57:23,860
Willie Mays raises the right eyebrow as he looks out there at Durin.
575
00:57:23,860 --> 00:57:32,860
0-2. 0-2.
576
00:57:32,860 --> 00:57:42,860
1-1 ball game. Mays has met with the National Leaguers in the home half of the fourth inning. Outfield, plenty deep.
577
00:57:42,860 --> 00:57:52,860
Here we go. Fastball, a little outside. Three fastballs to Willie. Ball one, strike two.
578
00:57:52,860 --> 00:58:00,860
One and two.
579
00:58:00,860 --> 00:58:05,860
Center fielder Kalei about three steps to the left. Everybody else is straight away.
580
00:58:05,860 --> 00:58:13,860
Willie went for a low outside fastball and struck out.
581
00:58:13,860 --> 00:58:17,860
Well, everybody seems to have brought that strikeout pitch to the ballpark with them today.
582
00:58:17,860 --> 00:58:22,860
Early Wicks struck out from three. One, two, three, and here's three innings.
583
00:58:22,860 --> 00:58:25,860
Durin has struck out the first man to face them.
584
00:58:25,860 --> 00:58:29,860
And Drysdale struck out four in three innings.
585
00:58:29,860 --> 00:58:33,860
Three banks who let off the second inning with a double end dive on second base.
586
00:58:33,860 --> 00:58:41,860
We're going to that now. One out.
587
00:58:41,860 --> 00:58:44,860
Fastball is low. Over the place is low.
588
00:58:44,860 --> 00:58:51,860
Question, why did Fred Haney strike to that bank's fifth and batting order and Mays fourth?
589
00:58:51,860 --> 00:58:56,860
The answer was that Haney's logic might be a little bit on the pessimistic side.
590
00:58:56,860 --> 00:59:00,860
Well, in case they get a sound order in the first inning, Mays will be a bad person.
591
00:59:00,860 --> 00:59:05,860
If he gets on base, he can run better than banks and I'll have a good base runner with banks up.
592
00:59:05,860 --> 00:59:12,860
Ball two, two and O.
593
00:59:12,860 --> 00:59:17,860
As it turned out, Mays batted in the first inning because Matthew built it a home run.
594
00:59:17,860 --> 00:59:22,860
So that meant the fourth man in the batting order came up and Ernie did lead off the second inning.
595
00:59:22,860 --> 00:59:27,860
And as I said, the 40 doubled. Ball two, foul ball.
596
00:59:27,860 --> 00:59:33,860
Ball two, strike one. That one's high. Back of the plate. Over the screen for the upper deck.
597
00:59:33,860 --> 00:59:41,860
Ball two, strike one. So far it's been a pitcher's day except for the two lightning-like thrusts offensively.
598
00:59:41,860 --> 00:59:51,860
One on each team. The home run ball, one by Kalei, one by Matthew. That's the story at this point.
599
00:59:51,860 --> 00:59:55,860
That had a foul. High. Back of the plate. This side's it.
600
00:59:55,860 --> 01:00:01,860
And some customer leads so far over the upper deck trying to get that one that I for a moment wondered if he might not tumble out.
601
01:00:01,860 --> 01:00:07,860
Ball two, strike two.
602
01:00:07,860 --> 01:00:18,860
Two and two. American League has three hits and National League two in this ballgame, which is in the fourth inning.
603
01:00:18,860 --> 01:00:22,860
Two and two.
604
01:00:22,860 --> 01:00:27,860
Duran, for the side of the piano, winds up.
605
01:00:27,860 --> 01:00:29,860
Another bat handle foul.
606
01:00:29,860 --> 01:00:37,860
In the side pitch. Ball two, strike two.
607
01:00:37,860 --> 01:00:53,860
Well, the relief pitching, per se, on both sides is really very promising. What with Duran,.90 and Roy Facer's.83.
608
01:00:53,860 --> 01:00:56,860
Two and two.
609
01:00:56,860 --> 01:01:01,860
A little close. Nearly nicked him. Ball three, strike two.
610
01:01:01,860 --> 01:01:09,860
You have to be a brave man to take a total against this Duran.
611
01:01:09,860 --> 01:01:19,860
Ball three, strike two. As a matter of fact, I remember Franklin one time telling me and another reporter that as far as he was concerned, hitting is 60 percent courage in baseball.
612
01:01:19,860 --> 01:01:22,860
That's another baseball man sent there to verify that percentage.
613
01:01:22,860 --> 01:01:28,860
There's a deep foul on the right field side, curving back into low seats. Ball three, strike two.
614
01:01:28,860 --> 01:01:41,860
You have to crowd that place. You have to guard it. Otherwise, if that pitcher moves you too far back into the batter's box there, he'll tip one across that outside corner and it'll be a strike that'll still be beyond the end of your bat.
615
01:01:41,860 --> 01:01:48,860
Ball three, strike two.
616
01:01:48,860 --> 01:02:06,860
Ernie Banks the batter. Marvelous reflexes. Great miss. Eye over his head. And that's ball four. And had there been somebody on base that would have been a wild pitch. Banks draws a walk.
617
01:02:06,860 --> 01:02:17,860
That is the second walk given to an American leaguer. Wally Moon got one on the second inning. And that brings up the first baseman to say that.
618
01:02:17,860 --> 01:02:30,860
Copped up to short step Aparicio and short left the last time at bat.
619
01:02:30,860 --> 01:02:37,860
Second walk given to a national leaguer by an American leaguer, as I was saying.
620
01:02:37,860 --> 01:02:46,860
Down ball to left second. Over with it. Aparicio steps on second and throws the first in time. And that kills off the side.
621
01:02:46,860 --> 01:02:58,860
Aparicio moving to his left. Completing the double play, forcing Banks and doubling up the play to no runs, no hits, no errors, nobody left to see. End of the fourth inning, the score is still one to one.
622
01:02:58,860 --> 01:03:22,860
The shot, he's got it, he's got it. How are you big for a blade? How are you big for a blade? You're better, Jack. Please make sure you have enough, cause a worn out blade makes him a tiny cut. How are you big for a blade? You're better, look. You're that blue blade we need.
623
01:03:22,860 --> 01:03:30,860
Let's pause 30 seconds for station identification. WGY WGFM's connect today.
624
01:03:30,860 --> 01:03:38,860
There's never been another ball player like Dave Rooks and confusing advertising to the contrary. There's only one genuine Saratoga Vichy.
625
01:03:38,860 --> 01:03:52,860
Demand the brand with the famous yellow label. Your only assurance is getting that distinctive extra dry, bubbly tang. Saratoga Vichy helps you feel better in the morning too. If you want real Vichy, you've got the yellow label.
626
01:03:52,860 --> 01:04:12,860
The ball game is moving into the top of the fifth inning and leading off is going to be Killibrew, third baseman, 271 hitter who leads the American League in homers and runs batted in. A young fellow who's emerged as a new star on the baseball horizon. He has 28 homers and 70 runs batted in. Young fellow built up strong shoulders working a film ground for a couple of years while he was in high school.
627
01:04:12,860 --> 01:04:24,860
And who has the unusual distinction of being scouted by a United States Senator who counted the Senators on him and sure enough the Senator from Idaho was right. Mr. Killibrew turned out to be a very good idea.
628
01:04:24,860 --> 01:04:44,860
Burdette goes one and that is ball one as the fifth inning gets underway. American League advanced. The ball game tied one to one. Killibrew will be followed by Amparicio and then Duran. Top field of the left team. There's a ground ball passed to the left of second bank.
629
01:04:44,860 --> 01:05:04,860
The right side bank goes over bank that way. And fires the first at time. Boy that looks like it had a good chance to get past Ernie. But he just gave it that extra oomph toward the end of that stretch and got his match. One out, Amparicio up.
630
01:05:04,860 --> 01:05:16,860
Rui Amparicio. Getting 291, five homers this year which is quite a few for Little Louie. 30 more runs batted in, a little fed up down in Venezuela. Donald Fadden is really in love with this guy.
631
01:05:16,860 --> 01:05:39,860
To the bottom on the right the last time at bat. Fitzgerald Burdette. Ball one. Just a hand of the notes from Bob that Senator Welker from Idaho who's got Killibrew for once and also got Law for Pittsburgh running long.
632
01:05:39,860 --> 01:05:53,860
Ball one. Knee high curve ball strike. One and one. Game tied one to one. Nationally with a homer by Matthews for the first. The American League match to put K-Lines in the fourth.
633
01:05:53,860 --> 01:06:02,860
The American has out hit the national in the first four running three to two. One away. Louie Amparicio, eight men in the batting order.
634
01:06:02,860 --> 01:06:12,860
One on curve. One on. There's a fly ball back to left field. That back's while he's moving up. He's near the wall and he pulls it in about 10 feet away from that 406 foot mark in left field.
635
01:06:12,860 --> 01:06:22,860
Amparicio giving it a pretty good ride. Two down. Duran the pitcher is up.
636
01:06:22,860 --> 01:06:39,860
Like I say you don't take a toehold against a Duran too often. And he's been accused of throwing that duster as other pitchers have too.
637
01:06:39,860 --> 01:06:53,860
But he claims the fourth. He doesn't throw the duster purposely. He may throw a brush back pitch but as it was explained to me one time it's not really a duster unless your head goes one way and the back goes the other.
638
01:06:53,860 --> 01:07:04,860
Strike one now. Duran swings on strike two. Burdett flipping a curve pass. Demo and two. They're playing in the swing late.
639
01:07:04,860 --> 01:07:14,860
Willie May is the center fielder. He's shaded over towards right center. Oh and two. Two out. Nobody on. Fifth inning.
640
01:07:14,860 --> 01:07:20,860
Tried to butt. Missed it. Duran struck out and that retires the side. No runs. No hits. No errors. Nobody left.
641
01:07:20,860 --> 01:07:30,860
Well that's the halfway point in the ball game. And the score at the middle of the fifth inning is American League one, the National League one.
642
01:07:30,860 --> 01:07:37,860
Well let's see Harvey Keene stretching that dugout. He'll probably get in the ball game too. You know in Harvey's seven years in the majors he's been chosen on six all-star teams.
643
01:07:37,860 --> 01:07:48,860
Both as a shortstop and an outfielder. Harv's the American League's leading hitter right now. A tough man to fool with the plate. He knows what he likes in razors too. His choice? The new Gillette Adjustable of court.
644
01:07:48,860 --> 01:07:59,860
Like a lot of men Harvey Keene found his comfort took on a brand new meaning once he tried the Gillette 195 Adjustable Razor. Why? Because here's a razor you adjust to match your own combination of skin and beard.
645
01:07:59,860 --> 01:08:11,860
That's right. There's an adjusting collar on the handle that you can set to any one of nine different degrees of edge exposure or angle. Turn to the left gives you left blade edge. Turn the dial to the right and more blade edge is exposed.
646
01:08:11,860 --> 01:08:20,860
Men with white beard, heavy beard, tender skin, any combination in the book are positively guaranteed clean long lasting shave or your money back.
647
01:08:20,860 --> 01:08:32,860
The Gillette Adjustable has made such a big hit with you fans that some stores are completely sold out. If you can't find one right off ask your dealer to reserve one for you. You'll be getting a new shipment just as soon as production permits.
648
01:08:32,860 --> 01:08:43,860
The Gillette Adjustable costs only a dollar ninety five complete with blue blade sensor and travel case.
649
01:08:43,860 --> 01:08:54,860
Well right at this minute I'm going to turn a very exciting ball game of one to one. Over for the last half of this broadcast to my very good friends the very popular announcer for KDK and Pittsburgh here.
650
01:08:54,860 --> 01:09:01,860
Follows these pirates, man and boy now for more years than I expect he wants to admit. Bob Prince. Bob come on in here will you.
651
01:09:01,860 --> 01:09:11,860
Thank you very much Jack and a wonderful call on the great first half of this ball game and it looks as though now it's going to be the long ball or the explosiveness of it that will get us determined one way or the other.
652
01:09:11,860 --> 01:09:25,860
Wally Moon who is not at all adverse to the long ball and who has found the left field wall at the Coliseum of very friendly saying it's only two hundred and fifty feet away now goes to left field a lot for some of his homers and extra base hit will be the man.
653
01:09:25,860 --> 01:09:39,860
And we have a change in the umpiring Joe Paparello of the American League will come to the plate and Al Barlich will now move to the other side on the diamond and we will move around with Barlich, Paparello, Donatelli and Ed Runge with Crawford and Rice on the line.
654
01:09:39,860 --> 01:09:50,860
And we're waiting the occasion of the delay is that they're waiting for Barlich to get rid of the equipment as the National League always uses the inside chest protector with the exception of Jack O'Connor.
655
01:09:50,860 --> 01:09:58,860
The American League goes for the inflated chest protector and they're ready to go much quicker so they're giving Al Barlich the opportunity to take it off.
656
01:09:58,860 --> 01:10:04,860
Wally Moon is one of the five fellows that ever hit a home run in the history of this game over the right field pavilion at Falks Field.
657
01:10:04,860 --> 01:10:10,860
It's three hundred feet down the immediate line. All dots do better than four hundred feet. It's a triple deck to fair.
658
01:10:10,860 --> 01:10:16,860
While it's double deck in right field it's exactly the same height as though it had to be. They just don't have the triple deck all the way up there.
659
01:10:16,860 --> 01:10:21,860
But it's a good ninety to a hundred feet. Here's Al Barlich.
660
01:10:21,860 --> 01:10:27,860
So as he comes out we'll be ready to go in a moment. You know in just about a month from now August 3rd will be exact.
661
01:10:27,860 --> 01:10:35,860
The second Major League All-Star game of the year will be played in the Los Angeles Coliseum and I'm sure you fans out on the West Coast are anxious to see those great stars in action.
662
01:10:35,860 --> 01:10:42,860
Official ticket order forms are now available from the Dodgers at the Los Angeles Coliseum or any agency handling Dodger tickets.
663
01:10:42,860 --> 01:10:49,860
This is Wally Moon. He walked his first time up Ryan Duren, a strong right hander, a swing and a miss strike one.
664
01:10:49,860 --> 01:10:55,860
Moon has been told you're one of the five men to ever hit a home run over the right field pavilion, the other being five-skinner of Pittsburgh and Ted Beard.
665
01:10:55,860 --> 01:11:02,860
Mickey Mantle, the Yankees, and an exhibition and Babe Ruth. The Babe was the first to do it and there's quite a story about that.
666
01:11:02,860 --> 01:11:08,860
Wally Moon, nothing in one. Ryan Duren, caught that right arm fire, the fastball down inside, one and one.
667
01:11:08,860 --> 01:11:19,860
The Babe hit his last three home runs of his illustrious home run career, number 712 on the lower deck for Boston, 713 upper deck, and 714 the last he was to ever strike.
668
01:11:19,860 --> 01:11:26,860
Went out of here over everything. One ball, one strike to Wally Moon. Duren comes down with a fast one.
669
01:11:26,860 --> 01:11:31,860
Moon a check swing fouls off to the left side down to the bleachers, so it's a count of one and two.
670
01:11:31,860 --> 01:11:35,860
The on deck batter is catcher Dale Crandall. Doors tied at one-one.
671
01:11:35,860 --> 01:11:40,860
The National League bang in with a pair of hits, a home run by Matthews and a double by Fank.
672
01:11:40,860 --> 01:11:48,860
And the American League in with three hits, a home run by Kailon, and singles then followed by Skowin and Calabito. No further damage.
673
01:11:48,860 --> 01:11:52,860
In the National League fifth inning, one ball to strike pitch from Ryan Duren.
674
01:11:52,860 --> 01:11:57,860
Left hand batting Wally Moon watches one up around the bill of the cap, two-two.
675
01:11:57,860 --> 01:12:07,860
In spring training a couple of years ago, Ryan Duren was pitching against the Milwaukee Braves, and Henry Aaron saw the first four warm-up pitches, three of which climbed the screen a hundred feet behind home plate.
676
01:12:07,860 --> 01:12:14,860
Aaron said, if it's all right with you, we'll not bat today. Walked right out of there. Two balls, two strikes to Moon.
677
01:12:14,860 --> 01:12:19,860
Duren, a double pump this time, hangs it outside, three and two.
678
01:12:19,860 --> 01:12:23,860
That ball is stayed away from left hand batting Moon.
679
01:12:23,860 --> 01:12:29,860
Left fielder Minimanoso is playing a very shallow left fielder, Wally, and they give him a little bit of a gap in right center.
680
01:12:29,860 --> 01:12:35,860
As Kailon is off to his right, they don't figure that Moon will be able to pull any of Ryan Duren.
681
01:12:35,860 --> 01:12:48,860
But three balls and two strikes, the big pitch on the way. He's stuck him out, and it was a swinging strikeout. That's the second strikeout for Duren, the fifth against the National Leaguers this afternoon.
682
01:12:48,860 --> 01:13:01,860
Giles Dale has racked up the best strikeout record for the Nationals when he's navigated three perfect innings, striking out four along the roof.
683
01:13:01,860 --> 01:13:13,860
Katja Del Crandall, strikeout sixth, amendment second.
684
01:13:13,860 --> 01:13:15,860
Here's the pitch.
685
01:13:15,860 --> 01:13:23,860
Delivery, gun down, third base side, and Killibrew comes up on his first offering, throws on to first baseman Moose Cowell and Crandall down two away.
686
01:13:23,860 --> 01:13:30,860
The batter two up there is pitcher Lou Bordet.
687
01:13:30,860 --> 01:13:35,860
Nobody has yet made a move from the National League dugout, which here in Fort Field is this one.
688
01:13:35,860 --> 01:13:39,860
Here comes Lou. He's the only guy that runs right out of that dugout. He comes up the point.
689
01:13:39,860 --> 01:13:46,860
Jack was telling you earlier about what a fine home run hitting pitcher Giles Dale was, this boy is too. Lou Bordet.
690
01:13:46,860 --> 01:13:54,860
His father was the horseshoe pitching champion down in West Virginia, and he taught Lou how to do it. Lou controlled 15, 16 ringers in a row.
691
01:13:54,860 --> 01:14:01,860
He's quite an all-around athlete and a great comedian.
692
01:14:01,860 --> 01:14:07,860
Straight out at the outfield to him, the gap in left mid air, swing on the Durance curve, and he doesn't get it, oh, and one.
693
01:14:07,860 --> 01:14:11,860
Short side at one, one, and the fifth inning, two down, none on.
694
01:14:11,860 --> 01:14:17,860
National League is the home team and, of course, wearing their white uniforms of their respective teams.
695
01:14:17,860 --> 01:14:24,860
Big number 33, made famous in the World Series a couple years ago, with three tremendous victories over the 80s.
696
01:14:24,860 --> 01:14:26,860
Here's the on one, two, Lou.
697
01:14:26,860 --> 01:14:31,860
Durance gets another fast one on the corner that Bordet can't even handle.
698
01:14:31,860 --> 01:14:37,860
No strike, no ball, two strikes.
699
01:14:37,860 --> 01:14:43,860
Early win, started for the American Lakers, went for a hill out to one run with Matthew Holman.
700
01:14:43,860 --> 01:14:47,860
Two hits, second hit by Banks, the devil, Herman.
701
01:14:47,860 --> 01:14:51,860
And now it's Durance on. Here's the oh and two-two Bordet.
702
01:14:51,860 --> 01:14:56,860
Check, swing, foul off to the right, just guarding the plate with two strikes on him.
703
01:14:56,860 --> 01:15:00,860
Just flick it off to the right side.
704
01:15:00,860 --> 01:15:07,860
We've told you from time to time, the most ideal weather you could ever have for the All-Star Game, and the luck of the All-Star Game holds true.
705
01:15:07,860 --> 01:15:14,860
It's been delayed once as a result of rain, and it was an official game in Philadelphia at the end of five.
706
01:15:14,860 --> 01:15:18,860
Other than that, they usually have the fine success here at the Missouli Classic.
707
01:15:18,860 --> 01:15:23,860
Here's the oh-two pitch, another boiling, quick swing off to the right, fouling it out of play.
708
01:15:23,860 --> 01:15:30,860
Oh and two, Bordet just taking it back, putting it down into the strike zone, as Durance is in that strike zone and has the two strikes.
709
01:15:30,860 --> 01:15:38,860
Durance is just flunking at it a little bit, hoping he can get a little better shot with some good wood.
710
01:15:38,860 --> 01:15:43,860
Two down, none on in the national fifth inning, one-one ball game.
711
01:15:43,860 --> 01:15:48,860
Oh-two pitch, got it down, foul it third.
712
01:15:48,860 --> 01:15:56,860
Al Bartek is now the third-base umpire, as Paparilla has come to the plate.
713
01:15:56,860 --> 01:16:00,860
Adonatelli of the National League and Ed Runge of the American League remain on the face pads with him,
714
01:16:00,860 --> 01:16:09,860
and on the foul line is John Rice of the American League on the right field line, and Shag Crawford of the National League on the left field line.
715
01:16:09,860 --> 01:16:11,860
No balls, he tracks to Bordet.
716
01:16:11,860 --> 01:16:15,860
During work, Sandy got him on a strikeout as he jammed him right on the fifth.
717
01:16:15,860 --> 01:16:24,860
So it turned out three-up, three-down, and at the end of five, the score is American League one to the National League one.
718
01:16:24,860 --> 01:16:27,860
As a public service, Gillette brings you the following message.
719
01:16:27,860 --> 01:16:35,860
Traffic accidents continue to take a heavy toll of lives and property on our roads, and the problem of making the highways safe is everybody.
720
01:16:35,860 --> 01:16:42,860
Records show that where strong, sound traffic laws exist and are strictly enforced, traffic deaths have gone down.
721
01:16:42,860 --> 01:16:48,860
So get behind your public officials and law enforcement authorities and support them in tightening up the traffic laws in your community.
722
01:16:48,860 --> 01:16:52,860
Urge your families to observe all safety rules as drivers and as pedestrians.
723
01:16:52,860 --> 01:16:57,860
And remember, where traffic laws are abated and enforced, deaths go down.
724
01:16:57,860 --> 01:17:02,860
The National Baseball Writers' Chapter of America, Mr. Lester Biedemann of the Pittsburgh Threats,
725
01:17:02,860 --> 01:17:12,860
and the official scorer, along with Jack Herner of the Post Gazette and Edmund Zell of Chicago, have announced the paid attendance, 34,763.
726
01:17:12,860 --> 01:17:19,860
This is not the largest attendance available to Ford Field, but under the laws of the Commissioner of Baseball,
727
01:17:19,860 --> 01:17:26,860
you do not sell the standing room only or get people on the field.
728
01:17:26,860 --> 01:17:36,860
The only way they ever got up over 40,000 here at Ford Field in Pittsburgh was by allowing them one time to stand around the field and put in the ground a little double.
729
01:17:36,860 --> 01:17:38,860
That has not been in existence now for quite some time.
730
01:17:38,860 --> 01:17:44,860
This is the field where they played the last tripleheader of baseball, where the bus were scurrying to get through.
731
01:17:44,860 --> 01:17:52,860
This is the field where one of the most memorable World Series events ever took place in 1925 in the seventh game against Washington with Walter Johnson pitching.
732
01:17:52,860 --> 01:18:03,860
In a scene that perhaps has never been seen before and never will be again in a downright driving rain pour, bases loaded bingo double and they beat Johnson in the center.
733
01:18:03,860 --> 01:18:05,860
Here's Miniman ofso, he's 0 for 2.
734
01:18:05,860 --> 01:18:14,860
Fly to center and then Burdett faced him in the fourth, got him on a roll out to second, jams him on the inside corner with a call strike, 0 and 1.
735
01:18:14,860 --> 01:18:20,860
Harry Krabs of Kansas City at first base, Tony Criccionello on the white socks at third.
736
01:18:20,860 --> 01:18:26,860
Miniman ofso, Nelly Fox and Al Kalan, the trio that Burdett will go through here in the sixth.
737
01:18:26,860 --> 01:18:33,860
Miniman ofso pops a foul off the right side, I don't think there's room for Randall, there is not, it's up over the National League dugout.
738
01:18:33,860 --> 01:18:35,860
Tumble to strike.
739
01:18:41,860 --> 01:18:50,860
Pittsburgh riders and fans have had their wonderful, wonderful times with Casey Stengel, having seen him around here and listened to him.
740
01:18:50,860 --> 01:18:54,860
Stengelisms are famous now I suppose and we're all over.
741
01:18:55,860 --> 01:18:59,860
And he got off a couple of mutes in the press conference yesterday.
742
01:18:59,860 --> 01:19:07,860
Miniman ofso, the American League's left fielder, 0 for 2, on the count of 0 and 2 on him, sidearm delivery sent in by Burdett, fell away.
743
01:19:07,860 --> 01:19:17,860
The attendance here today of 34,763 will not of course approach the record attendance of 69,831 which was set in Cleveland in 1935,
744
01:19:17,860 --> 01:19:21,860
which may be a cliff target third on the west coast in the Coliseum in Los Angeles.
745
01:19:21,860 --> 01:19:25,860
It of course having a greater capacity.
746
01:19:25,860 --> 01:19:30,860
No balls and six strikes. Flights are to mind all you fans out on the west coast.
747
01:19:30,860 --> 01:19:35,860
Application forms for the second all-star game available at the Dodger ticket office.
748
01:19:37,860 --> 01:19:40,860
No balls, two strikes to Miniman ofso.
749
01:19:45,860 --> 01:19:52,860
Jack Bricott was pointing out earlier a lot of the records with regards to the number of games in which he's competed will go by the wayside.
750
01:19:52,860 --> 01:19:57,860
The number of times he's played in the Miniman ofso right down the middle came Burdett with his match ball for strike three calls.
751
01:19:57,860 --> 01:20:04,860
So that's the sixth strikeout and Burdett has picked up his second.
752
01:20:04,860 --> 01:20:08,860
That'll bring up Kelly Fox who struck out and fouled out the third.
753
01:20:08,860 --> 01:20:15,860
As Jack pointed out if they start playing these games in pairs the records of like being in one like New Zealand 16 or so will mean nothing.
754
01:20:15,860 --> 01:20:22,860
Six strikes out on each side because you can in five years you can play in ten games very quickly obviously.
755
01:20:22,860 --> 01:20:26,860
Kelly Fox struck out, bats them left handed, swings golf a shot on the right side,
756
01:20:26,860 --> 01:20:32,860
Tipple charges, takes the bat, hop and blows onto Sepeda and they're at two away.
757
01:20:32,860 --> 01:20:38,860
This is the American League six inning two down and none on and the score is tied up at one one if you're just sitting in.
758
01:20:38,860 --> 01:20:42,860
Eddie Matthews long ball went out of the ballpark off early when in the first inning
759
01:20:42,860 --> 01:20:46,860
and Kline got it all even with a blast to left center in the fourth.
760
01:20:46,860 --> 01:20:55,860
Here he is now, he struck out in the first and homered over the 4.06 mark in left center field in the fourth inning.
761
01:20:55,860 --> 01:21:02,860
Drop off down third and Matthews on a bubble and he gets away from him, goes into short left and Kline is around first.
762
01:21:02,860 --> 01:21:11,860
The ball is recovered quickly by Wally Moon and it's Panora charged to Eddie Matthews and it'll be the first error of the ballgame.
763
01:21:11,860 --> 01:21:19,860
Kline aboard on a miscue at third and that'll bring up the slugging first baseman and half fielder of the New York Yankees, Moose Schuyen.
764
01:21:19,860 --> 01:21:28,860
Schuyen on the year at 293, 15 homers, 56 RBIs, rolled a second and swindled out to the left.
765
01:21:28,860 --> 01:21:33,860
Milwaukee Braves have four other great players going in this one right now.
766
01:21:33,860 --> 01:21:39,860
Here's the pitch, here's the delivery outside of ball, breaking ball that missed the outside corners of the right hand batting Moose.
767
01:21:39,860 --> 01:21:47,860
Matthews at third, Burdett and Chandler the batterie and the right fielder the incomparable Henri Aron.
768
01:21:47,860 --> 01:21:55,860
Sixth inning for the American Leaguers who have won the last two games of the All-Star Classic.
769
01:21:55,860 --> 01:22:01,860
Burdett checks the livers, there's a drive and the right center going to get in there for the basehead coming over fast to get that ball as Wally made.
770
01:22:01,860 --> 01:22:06,860
He's going to take a shot at that runner coming over to third, a slide fake made it the close play.
771
01:22:06,860 --> 01:22:15,860
K-line tries to go on Wally and it was bang bang at third. He's in there however under the fly.
772
01:22:15,860 --> 01:22:20,860
Gowans got a looper over the head of Temple in the right center field at K-line.
773
01:22:20,860 --> 01:22:27,860
It appeared to me he hesitated just a little bit coming around second and then really turned on the seed and Wally's throw was right to Matthews.
774
01:22:27,860 --> 01:22:32,860
But he split under the throw so we now have Rocky Cotter Vito up there for the American Leaguers.
775
01:22:32,860 --> 01:22:40,860
He struck out in the second, he's single up the middle in the fourth and the American Leaguers mount another offensive threat against Luberdett.
776
01:22:40,860 --> 01:22:46,860
Two on and two out, here's the pitch. Big chop hit on the left side.
777
01:22:46,860 --> 01:22:53,860
Ernie Banks wakes for the short half, flips it on to Johnny Temple in a forced scour and on the fourth side, left side is retired.
778
01:22:53,860 --> 01:23:05,860
No runs, one hit, one error and two left and we go at the, so at the end, at the middle of the sixth inning, the score is American League one and the National League one.
779
01:23:05,860 --> 01:23:10,860
Well, young Louis Apparicio has been certainly a whale of a man out here in his ball game today.
780
01:23:10,860 --> 01:23:17,860
You know this young Glob Wiv was the unanimous choice of the New York Yankees to hold down the all-star shortstop position.
781
01:23:17,860 --> 01:23:24,860
And good reason, he's robbed them of many a hit. Flashy in the field, Apparicio is also a big fashion place.
782
01:23:24,860 --> 01:23:31,860
He always looks top-notch. And a Gillette man, why, Louis tells us he was a booster of ours way back when he lived in Venezuela.
783
01:23:31,860 --> 01:23:37,860
And he's stayed with Gillette Blue Blades ever since. Little wonder, Gillette Blue Blades has the keenest edges ever put on steel.
784
01:23:37,860 --> 01:23:43,860
Smooth, mirror-finished edges that give you shave after shave with ease and comfort and just save money too.
785
01:23:43,860 --> 01:23:53,860
Gillette Blue Blades is a double-edge for extra convenience and economy. So if you change them less than half as often, use them more than twice as long as single-edge blades.
786
01:23:53,860 --> 01:24:00,860
When you ask for Gillette Blue Blades, get them in the handy zip-out dispenser that has a compartment on the back for the easy disposal of used blades.
787
01:24:00,860 --> 01:24:05,860
They cost 20 for 98 cents, 10 for 49 cents.
788
01:24:05,860 --> 01:24:09,860
The American League has now swung Mickey Mantle to center field.
789
01:24:09,860 --> 01:24:16,860
As he goes in, in place of Al Kailin, Mickey Mantle with a bad leg.
790
01:24:16,860 --> 01:24:20,860
But the New York Yankee speed demon goes to center field.
791
01:24:20,860 --> 01:24:27,860
Zick Power has not been put in at first. We're getting a double check.
792
01:24:27,860 --> 01:24:36,860
We're trying to find out who's been put in at first, the Platinum Fire, Ed Runge, or rather Joe Paparilla has come on to say that there is an incorrect statement made
793
01:24:36,860 --> 01:24:43,860
as to who's on Musial is going to be in here to bat in the National League sixth inning.
794
01:24:43,860 --> 01:24:48,860
And this puts him up there for 16 times that he's been in the Classic and he'll bat in place of Temple.
795
01:24:48,860 --> 01:24:56,860
Harvey Keane has gone to center and is not Mickey Mantle. So we'll have to go from the direction on the press box.
796
01:24:56,860 --> 01:25:00,860
There's delivery to Musial inside. Dan Musial batting for John Temple.
797
01:25:00,860 --> 01:25:07,860
Temple getting away at a big snap.
798
01:25:07,860 --> 01:25:14,860
From DeNora, Pennsylvania, marked by the city of Pittsburgh, staying the man.
799
01:25:14,860 --> 01:25:26,860
Great St. Louis Cardinal ballplayer. Ryan Dorn works to him upstairs, ball to two balls in those strikes.
800
01:25:26,860 --> 01:25:33,860
The press box, who had originally announced farther to our right that it would be Mantle and Satterfield,
801
01:25:33,860 --> 01:25:38,860
has now corrected and it'll be Harvey Keane, teammate of Al Kailah.
802
01:25:38,860 --> 01:25:45,860
Musial hits a pop-up on the right side, dropping back first baseman for it.
803
01:25:45,860 --> 01:25:50,860
And we'll have to check who that. It should be Zick Power, who has also gone in in place of Skowra.
804
01:25:50,860 --> 01:25:53,860
Anyhow, it's a pop-up to first.
805
01:25:53,860 --> 01:25:57,860
Satter is now at a Matthews, a home run in two and bats.
806
01:25:57,860 --> 01:26:04,860
In the first, over the right field screen, and in the third, fouled out the first.
807
01:26:04,860 --> 01:26:14,860
One down in the National League six, high from Ryan Dorn, who after he pitches just bounces around out there on the mound like he's on a Pogo stick.
808
01:26:14,860 --> 01:26:19,860
Eddie Sawyer, one of the few members of the Phi Beta Kappa Society, is coaching at first.
809
01:26:19,860 --> 01:26:22,860
And of course the manager of the field, over to third, Danny Mertau.
810
01:26:22,860 --> 01:26:25,860
One ball, no strike pitch to Matthews.
811
01:26:25,860 --> 01:26:28,860
Started to go for the fast ball late off it, it cuts him one and one.
812
01:26:28,860 --> 01:26:30,860
Henry Ernest on deck.
813
01:26:30,860 --> 01:26:36,860
There's all sorts of opportunities for a single to place the batter's Keane and Power in the batting order,
814
01:26:36,860 --> 01:26:43,860
so we'll not worry about just where they are yet until they come up. There they fall upstairs, two and one, Eddie.
815
01:26:43,860 --> 01:26:46,860
Matthews on the year 25 homers, 59 home runs.
816
01:26:46,860 --> 01:26:50,860
Five of the home runs he has struck in this ballpark this year.
817
01:26:50,860 --> 01:26:56,860
This has been one of his favorite targets, much to the lament of Pittsburgh Pirate followers.
818
01:26:56,860 --> 01:26:58,860
Two balls and a strike.
819
01:26:58,860 --> 01:27:02,860
The outfield changed him around to the right to give him a big gap in left center field.
820
01:27:02,860 --> 01:27:06,860
Dorn's fast ball hit foul back on the netting here, an account of 2-2.
821
01:27:06,860 --> 01:27:17,860
Ryan almost overpowered Eddie with a good riding fast ball that came in there.
822
01:27:17,860 --> 01:27:23,860
Chuck him out swinging. Number seven goes into the book.
823
01:27:23,860 --> 01:27:28,860
And here is Henry Ernest who struck out and aligned a short in his first two trips.
824
01:27:28,860 --> 01:27:34,860
The Milwaukee Braves on the rail of the right field in one of the most fantastic batters in baseball,
825
01:27:34,860 --> 01:27:40,860
modern handles, stayed way up over the 400 mark and somebody figured it out that if he went to the plate
826
01:27:40,860 --> 01:27:45,860
a number of times, just a month ago as he did last year, finished out the season that way,
827
01:27:45,860 --> 01:27:49,860
once before he'd end up hitting 322.
828
01:27:49,860 --> 01:27:53,860
There's Henry Ernest a drive over the shortstop position into left field.
829
01:27:53,860 --> 01:27:57,860
I know so, a flag bubble, but picks it up and holds it to a single.
830
01:27:57,860 --> 01:28:04,860
Henry Ernest has picked up the third hit of the afternoon for the National League and here's the say hey kid, Willie May.
831
01:28:04,860 --> 01:28:11,860
Willie Hayden lined to the pitcher and struck out.
832
01:28:11,860 --> 01:28:20,860
Henry Ernest is on the threat, one of the most fabled of all ball players, Willie May.
833
01:28:20,860 --> 01:28:27,860
Throw it over to first base, no damage, Henry Ernest staying a little close over there with a big power holding touch.
834
01:28:27,860 --> 01:28:33,860
Ryan Duren checks in here. In the 1-1 game the pitch is cut foul, back out of play.
835
01:28:33,860 --> 01:28:48,860
Henry Ernest was a key figure in the now famous Harvey Haddock perfect ball game when he inadvertently
836
01:28:48,860 --> 01:28:55,860
showed off second thinking that Adcock had only hit an inside ball inside the park in the 13th inning
837
01:28:55,860 --> 01:29:00,860
and in so doing he walked by Adcock and his nullified a home run.
838
01:29:00,860 --> 01:29:06,860
Two balls and a strike, here's the pitch, there's a smash and one hop off the chest of Amparicio,
839
01:29:06,860 --> 01:29:12,860
picks it up, gets it on in time for the force play to Fox and a nice play by Amparicio holding that ball in front of him.
840
01:29:12,860 --> 01:29:22,860
So it's no runs or hits, no errors and one left. At the end of sixth it's tied up 1-1.
841
01:29:22,860 --> 01:29:39,860
Throw it short, field short, feed short, the only way to get a feed save is to let, is to let, save to let.
842
01:29:39,860 --> 01:29:55,860
We've had a corrected attendance here from Les Biedemann, 35,277 and the correction occurred as a result of those not seeing the direct ticket sale, 35,277.
843
01:29:55,860 --> 01:30:06,860
The original attendance figure of 34,763 were given as a result of a turnstile count.
844
01:30:06,860 --> 01:30:12,860
Well ladies and gentlemen here comes the public who has rocked the baseball world, Elroy Faith.
845
01:30:12,860 --> 01:30:17,860
And it is fantastic that his earned run average is 0.83.
846
01:30:17,860 --> 01:30:22,860
Elroy has been in 54 innings, has won 12 and lost none and has not lost a ball against him.
847
01:30:22,860 --> 01:30:30,860
May 30, 1958 has won 17 consecutive games.
848
01:30:30,860 --> 01:30:37,860
Elroy Faith goes in there and Bill Masurasky goes to second base. Triandos up, he's 0-2.
849
01:30:37,860 --> 01:30:49,860
Elroy delivers up there at the ball. Triandos in the fourth inning as Jack Brickhouse pointed out, hit a shot in the right center field and only the great running speed of Henry Aaron flagged it down to prevent a couple of runs coming in.
850
01:30:49,860 --> 01:30:54,860
Triandos has won off the end of the best foul.
851
01:30:54,860 --> 01:31:03,860
Bill Masurasky is in at second base in place of John Temple, it's usual having batted for him.
852
01:31:03,860 --> 01:31:07,860
Elroy Faith works through Triandos.
853
01:31:07,860 --> 01:31:12,860
This fella throws the fourth ball, a good slider, good curveball and a fine fastball.
854
01:31:12,860 --> 01:31:17,860
One ball, one strike to Gus Triandos, the Baltimore catcher.
855
01:31:17,860 --> 01:31:27,860
The ground ball hits down toward third. Big hop up Eddie Matthews, spins it across to first baseman Cepeda and one is away in the American League seven.
856
01:31:27,860 --> 01:31:34,860
Here is catch third baseman Herman Killibrew hitting at 271 for the season. 28 homers and 70 RBIs.
857
01:31:34,860 --> 01:31:41,860
He's the major league leader in home runs. He's over 2 this afternoon having flied to center and rolled out to second base.
858
01:31:41,860 --> 01:31:50,860
Gors died at 1-1 in the American League seventh inning. Faith fourth ball, he's swinging on his big strike.
859
01:31:50,860 --> 01:31:56,860
He missed it by a foot. That fourth ball comes up most elusively and then drops about a foot, foot and a half.
860
01:31:56,860 --> 01:32:03,860
Just seems to die out there somewhere.
861
01:32:03,860 --> 01:32:09,860
Breaking ball outside, one ball, one strike.
862
01:32:09,860 --> 01:32:21,860
Luber dead, went three innings, is charged with one run. Four hits.
863
01:32:21,860 --> 01:32:25,860
Picked up two strikeouts, did not walk anybody.
864
01:32:25,860 --> 01:32:33,860
Here's the 1-1 pitch at strike call to M1 and 2.
865
01:32:33,860 --> 01:32:41,860
Here's the total net after taxes. Here will be $194,303.46 on the record attendance of fourth field.
866
01:32:41,860 --> 01:32:46,860
Killibrew strikes out.
867
01:32:46,860 --> 01:32:57,860
He looked at the Elroy face fourth ball and he did not see it.
868
01:32:57,860 --> 01:33:01,860
Little Elroy is a carver during the off season.
869
01:33:01,860 --> 01:33:06,860
Luis Aparicio, he's flied to right by the left. Two down in the American League seventh.
870
01:33:06,860 --> 01:33:10,860
Short tied at 1-1. Elroy faced the right-hander. He's only 5'8, weighs 150 pounds.
871
01:33:10,860 --> 01:33:13,860
Turnball inside, one ball, a strike.
872
01:33:13,860 --> 01:33:22,860
Jim Bunnings has finished warming up. Down the left field line for the American Leaguers.
873
01:33:22,860 --> 01:33:34,860
Theron having completed his three short innings. Now back by Aparicio.
874
01:33:34,860 --> 01:33:41,860
Seven strikeouts for both sides, but we're getting closer and closer to a record.
875
01:33:41,860 --> 01:33:46,860
For an old star classic. One ball, one strike, did Luis Aparicio. Two down and none on.
876
01:33:46,860 --> 01:33:52,860
There's an attempt for the bunny missus. One and two.
877
01:33:52,860 --> 01:33:54,860
Got the front to the base, hit two. Matthews in very quickly from third.
878
01:33:54,860 --> 01:34:04,860
But Aparicio didn't get onto that ball. One and two.
879
01:34:04,860 --> 01:34:12,860
One ball, two strike pitch. Just low, two-two. Breaking ball.
880
01:34:12,860 --> 01:34:17,860
Matthews put the National League in front in the first inning with a home run against early wins.
881
01:34:17,860 --> 01:34:22,860
And a home run by Al Kalon of Detroit, tied in the fourth off Luberdip.
882
01:34:22,860 --> 01:34:30,860
Two balls, two strikes, Aparicio. Shot came out.
883
01:34:30,860 --> 01:34:39,860
Three up and three down. And so at the middle of the seventh inning, the score is American League one for National League one.
884
01:34:39,860 --> 01:34:43,860
You know, when the Gillette Safety Razor Company announces a new and better shaving instrument,
885
01:34:43,860 --> 01:34:47,860
you can be sure this means greater comfort to millions of friends.
886
01:34:47,860 --> 01:34:52,860
However, Gillette knows from experience that many of you fans are so fond of your present Gillette
887
01:34:52,860 --> 01:34:56,860
that if you had to, you'd want to replace it with one exactly the same.
888
01:34:56,860 --> 01:35:01,860
That's why for just one dollar, you can still get a Gillette Super Speed Razor.
889
01:35:01,860 --> 01:35:05,860
And they still come in three models. Light, regular, or heavy.
890
01:35:05,860 --> 01:35:09,860
The light is for men with lighter beards, regular for average skin and beards,
891
01:35:09,860 --> 01:35:13,860
and heavy for men with dense, hard-to-shave beards.
892
01:35:13,860 --> 01:35:18,860
At the price, just one dollar, you can't buy a finer shaving instrument.
893
01:35:18,860 --> 01:35:22,860
So don't worry. If you ever want to replace your present Super Speed Razor with another just like it,
894
01:35:22,860 --> 01:35:25,860
they'll be available at a store near you.
895
01:35:25,860 --> 01:35:28,860
As a reminder, it only costs one dollar for the razor.
896
01:35:28,860 --> 01:35:32,860
Gillette Blue Blade Dispenser and Handsome Cavalcade.
897
01:35:32,860 --> 01:35:38,860
L.R. Faye came through with two strikeouts, which is, ladies and gentlemen,
898
01:35:38,860 --> 01:35:42,860
has been his great pitch on his forward ball.
899
01:35:42,860 --> 01:35:47,860
And the fact that at 5'8", he is a fellow who gives you all sorts of motion out there
900
01:35:47,860 --> 01:35:52,860
and comes right down with a pitch that elusively and bafflingly breaks down and in
901
01:35:52,860 --> 01:35:55,860
to a right-hand batter sometimes and then down and into a left-hand batter.
902
01:35:55,860 --> 01:36:01,860
He just throws the forward ball hoping to get him out of any particular type of jam.
903
01:36:01,860 --> 01:36:06,860
He's ideally situated and everything about him is perfect for a release pitching.
904
01:36:06,860 --> 01:36:09,860
Well, when he comes in normally, the bucks are in jam.
905
01:36:09,860 --> 01:36:15,860
And he gets you to hit that ball on the ground, either strikes you out or gets you to pop it into a double play.
906
01:36:15,860 --> 01:36:18,860
Now then, big Jim Bunning of the Detroit Tigers is coming in.
907
01:36:18,860 --> 01:36:24,860
His slider, got him by Whitlow Watt, by the way, who is now the pitching coach for the Milwaukee Braves,
908
01:36:24,860 --> 01:36:26,860
made him a real major league pitcher.
909
01:36:26,860 --> 01:36:30,860
He now hit the Red Sox July 20th last year, you might recall.
910
01:36:30,860 --> 01:36:37,860
Jim Bunning now pitching, the other day, the Detroit Tigers, is 1-7 off 6, an ERA of 4.72.
911
01:36:41,860 --> 01:36:45,860
Boston's Frank Malone has come in to play at third.
912
01:36:45,860 --> 01:36:48,860
Bunning is in to do the pitching.
913
01:36:48,860 --> 01:36:50,860
And we'll give you the rundown on everybody else.
914
01:36:50,860 --> 01:36:53,860
There's Stank, long drive, there's Field, going way back,
915
01:36:53,860 --> 01:36:56,860
any Minnesota, gives a good-bye, it's off the wall.
916
01:36:56,860 --> 01:37:00,860
And the bases for Bengal Banks as he bombs it high up against the standard.
917
01:37:07,860 --> 01:37:09,860
There's a light standard out there.
918
01:37:11,860 --> 01:37:17,860
That is about 375 feet from the home plate section.
919
01:37:17,860 --> 01:37:20,860
And he bombed it right to the base of it.
920
01:37:20,860 --> 01:37:26,860
And Josh missed the home run by inches and now has check-in with his second double.
921
01:37:26,860 --> 01:37:28,860
And that's the fifth hit of the ball game.
922
01:37:28,860 --> 01:37:31,860
And here is Orlando Cepeda, who is over 2.
923
01:37:31,860 --> 01:37:35,860
He popped a short and grounded him to a double play.
924
01:37:35,860 --> 01:37:38,860
Malone, in the infield on the left side.
925
01:37:38,860 --> 01:37:41,860
Malone and shortstop Aparicio.
926
01:37:41,860 --> 01:37:45,860
Aparicio makes the catch in behind the pitching mound.
927
01:37:45,860 --> 01:37:50,860
So we have one out.
928
01:37:50,860 --> 01:37:56,860
Now we have Wally Moon, the left fielder, who walks and struck out.
929
01:37:56,860 --> 01:38:01,860
Whitey Ford of the New York Yankees is now throwing at the American League bullpen.
930
01:38:01,860 --> 01:38:05,860
Wally Moon is up there.
931
01:38:05,860 --> 01:38:07,860
Here's the pitch.
932
01:38:07,860 --> 01:38:09,860
The curve is high ball on.
933
01:38:09,860 --> 01:38:11,860
Banks let off with a double in the second.
934
01:38:11,860 --> 01:38:14,860
It's Cepeda, pops the short on the first pitch in the second inning.
935
01:38:14,860 --> 01:38:17,860
And there, Lightning struck twice in the same way in the seventh.
936
01:38:17,860 --> 01:38:18,860
Double Banks lead it off.
937
01:38:18,860 --> 01:38:21,860
Cepeda went on the first pitch and hit it straight up the shoot.
938
01:38:21,860 --> 01:38:23,860
Four shortstop Aparicio.
939
01:38:23,860 --> 01:38:24,860
One ball and no strikes.
940
01:38:24,860 --> 01:38:26,860
The left-hand batting Wally Moon.
941
01:38:26,860 --> 01:38:28,860
Short tied 1-1 in the National League seventh.
942
01:38:28,860 --> 01:38:30,860
Time call is Triando.
943
01:38:30,860 --> 01:38:33,860
And Funning want to talk it over.
944
01:38:33,860 --> 01:38:39,860
Ryan Durant, in his three-inning snow run, without only one hit, struck out four.
945
01:38:39,860 --> 01:38:42,860
And walks but one batter.
946
01:38:42,860 --> 01:38:44,860
Two balls and no strikes to the left-hand batting Moon.
947
01:38:44,860 --> 01:38:46,860
They shade him a little bit around to the right.
948
01:38:46,860 --> 01:38:48,860
Fast ball down underneath the knees.
949
01:38:48,860 --> 01:38:54,860
Two balls and no strikes.
950
01:38:54,860 --> 01:38:58,860
Ernie Banks, who does not specialize in the long high fly ball home run,
951
01:38:58,860 --> 01:39:01,860
but more in the low screeching shot,
952
01:39:01,860 --> 01:39:06,860
barely missed one as he hit the top of the light-standard screen,
953
01:39:06,860 --> 01:39:09,860
and it came back in the park to remain in play.
954
01:39:09,860 --> 01:39:15,860
Three inside the Moon.
955
01:39:15,860 --> 01:39:16,860
Del Crandall is on deck.
956
01:39:16,860 --> 01:39:19,860
And now we're to that point of the ball game where both sides.
957
01:39:19,860 --> 01:39:22,860
Manager Brett Haney of the National League champion Milwaukee Braves
958
01:39:22,860 --> 01:39:26,860
and of the National American League champion Casey Stengel of the NPS.
959
01:39:26,860 --> 01:39:30,860
They're throwing on a 3-0, 3-0, and bouncing out of play, 3-1.
960
01:39:30,860 --> 01:39:34,860
So we're going on the first ones here on some of them for the National League.
961
01:39:34,860 --> 01:39:37,860
The strategy is, and they gave him the green light to go on the 3-0.
962
01:39:37,860 --> 01:39:44,860
If he was in there, they thought he might be able to give it a rest.
963
01:39:44,860 --> 01:39:48,860
Three balls and a strike to while he moves.
964
01:39:48,860 --> 01:39:53,860
We're down to that point though where the managers will be doing a lot of shuffling around.
965
01:39:53,860 --> 01:39:54,860
3-1 pitch.
966
01:39:54,860 --> 01:40:06,860
Moon flicks a foul out of play to the left, 3-2.
967
01:40:06,860 --> 01:40:09,860
They're running a regular season of 20 games started 18.
968
01:40:09,860 --> 01:40:13,860
It pitched 124 innings for the Detroit ball club, winning seven, losing six.
969
01:40:13,860 --> 01:40:17,860
From the standpoint of the American League pitching stars,
970
01:40:17,860 --> 01:40:22,860
that's the highest turn-run average of all that are here with a 4.72.
971
01:40:22,860 --> 01:40:25,860
But that's respectful in this day and age of a long ball
972
01:40:25,860 --> 01:40:28,860
and lightning-like shots out of the ballpark at any moment.
973
01:40:28,860 --> 01:40:30,860
Three and two to Moon.
974
01:40:30,860 --> 01:40:31,860
The pitch.
975
01:40:31,860 --> 01:40:32,860
There's strike three called.
976
01:40:32,860 --> 01:40:36,860
The ball is down by Triandosa now. He tags Wally.
977
01:40:36,860 --> 01:40:44,860
And that's strikeout number eight against the National League.
978
01:40:44,860 --> 01:40:48,860
Well, we have 16 strikeouts in the ball game.
979
01:40:48,860 --> 01:40:51,860
And this will send Brody Jack Brickhouse to the record books again for us.
980
01:40:51,860 --> 01:40:53,860
Well, we double-checked everything.
981
01:40:53,860 --> 01:40:56,860
Now catcher Del Candel who struck out in the 1st.
982
01:40:56,860 --> 01:40:58,860
A roll to third is the better.
983
01:40:58,860 --> 01:41:01,860
They're going to play him around to the left.
984
01:41:01,860 --> 01:41:04,860
Pitch up the middle. It's a base hit.
985
01:41:04,860 --> 01:41:06,860
And here comes Ernie Banks around third.
986
01:41:06,860 --> 01:41:07,860
Here's the shoot by Harvey Keene.
987
01:41:07,860 --> 01:41:08,860
The throw is not in time.
988
01:41:08,860 --> 01:41:10,860
Here goes the runner, Candle to second base.
989
01:41:10,860 --> 01:41:12,860
The night's in the league in front.
990
01:41:12,860 --> 01:41:25,860
To the right.
991
01:41:25,860 --> 01:41:29,860
Del Candel just reached out and snapped that little shot.
992
01:41:29,860 --> 01:41:31,860
And a center field.
993
01:41:31,860 --> 01:41:35,860
And Banks scores the lead runner now, Bill Masurowski.
994
01:41:35,860 --> 01:41:39,860
The great second baseman of the Pittsburgh Pirates is the better.
995
01:41:39,860 --> 01:41:42,860
Masurowski in the regular year at 267.
996
01:41:42,860 --> 01:41:48,860
Five home runs, 34 RBI.
997
01:41:48,860 --> 01:41:52,860
And as Jack pointed out a while back, he goes in a one-for-four clip, but bingo.
998
01:41:52,860 --> 01:41:55,860
When you need to hit, that's when the one out of four comes up.
999
01:41:55,860 --> 01:41:57,860
And it did here. Masurowski's got a left field.
1000
01:41:57,860 --> 01:41:59,860
It's going to be a base hit.
1001
01:41:59,860 --> 01:42:01,860
Here comes Candle around third to score.
1002
01:42:01,860 --> 01:42:02,860
Masurowski's trying to go to second.
1003
01:42:02,860 --> 01:42:03,860
The run gets in there, slide.
1004
01:42:03,860 --> 01:42:05,860
He's out at second base.
1005
01:42:05,860 --> 01:42:10,860
It's a bingo. The run counts.
1006
01:42:10,860 --> 01:42:12,860
Nice feeling play by Minosso.
1007
01:42:12,860 --> 01:42:14,860
The throw went on into Fox at second base.
1008
01:42:14,860 --> 01:42:17,860
Candle scores from second.
1009
01:42:17,860 --> 01:42:21,860
And it's a two runs on three hits nowhere, there's nobody left.
1010
01:42:21,860 --> 01:42:26,860
At the end of seventh, the score is the National League three, the American League one.
1011
01:42:26,860 --> 01:42:37,860
Two, paper-maid, holiday, a tower 79.
1012
01:42:37,860 --> 01:42:42,860
Just two paper-maids right every time, over handprint, fingerprint, re-saw grind.
1013
01:42:42,860 --> 01:42:45,860
Guaranteed not to skip, glitz-glide or sputter.
1014
01:42:45,860 --> 01:42:48,860
The new holiday, even right over butter.
1015
01:42:48,860 --> 01:42:51,860
You can take a stick of butter, now lift it here.
1016
01:42:51,860 --> 01:42:54,860
And on a piece of paper you can make a sphere.
1017
01:42:54,860 --> 01:42:58,860
It's an ordinary pen, you can try to write a rhyme, but you'll skip over the butter.
1018
01:42:58,860 --> 01:43:04,860
Every time, then pick up the paper-maid, holiday pen, go through the butter test.
1019
01:43:04,860 --> 01:43:07,860
Once again, watch it right through the butter.
1020
01:43:07,860 --> 01:43:11,860
Without a slip, this new paper-maid, guaranteed not to skip.
1021
01:43:11,860 --> 01:43:18,860
Two, paper-maid, holiday, a tower 79.
1022
01:43:18,860 --> 01:43:26,860
On the side we go now to the American League eighth inning, and flagged, Miles Ohm of Boston stands in.
1023
01:43:26,860 --> 01:43:31,860
Miles Ohm in the regular season, hitting a 278, 10 homerun, 39 RBI.
1024
01:43:31,860 --> 01:43:35,860
He's a right-hand batter, Roy Face delivers outside in low ball one.
1025
01:43:35,860 --> 01:43:42,860
This game now sets up as Roy Face's game to win and Jim Bunnings to lose, as it now stands.
1026
01:43:42,860 --> 01:43:45,860
No National League pitcher, as Jack points out, is issued a walk so far.
1027
01:43:45,860 --> 01:43:57,860
There's a pop, is it behind second base, Maseratky goes off to his right, dances around underneath, one out.
1028
01:43:57,860 --> 01:44:04,860
National League has not won the last couple of ball games, leading in this one three to one, as now Mnuchinupso, who is 0-3.
1029
01:44:04,860 --> 01:44:07,860
Flagged defender, went out second to first and struck out.
1030
01:44:07,860 --> 01:44:15,860
All six pitchers have struck out somebody in this ball game.
1031
01:44:15,860 --> 01:44:20,860
Mnuchinupso, left side, looking for it.
1032
01:44:20,860 --> 01:44:23,860
Stays with that dog and comes through there.
1033
01:44:23,860 --> 01:44:33,860
And Roy Face is showing everyone in Pittsburgh and coast to coast, as you listen to the broadcasts and around the world and in Canada,
1034
01:44:33,860 --> 01:44:37,860
he's one of the great pitchers of the major leagues in relief.
1035
01:44:37,860 --> 01:44:41,860
L.A. Pops is up there, he struck out, fouled out to third and rolled out to second.
1036
01:44:41,860 --> 01:44:48,860
National League leads the American League three to one in the 26th minute of the All-Star Classic at Ford Field.
1037
01:44:48,860 --> 01:44:53,860
Down inside the ball, as Elroy jammed him with a fast slider.
1038
01:44:53,860 --> 01:45:01,860
Little Roy Face with a heart as big as a church, 5'8", 150 pounds, has topped the American Leagueers' goal thus far.
1039
01:45:01,860 --> 01:45:06,860
Next delivery, right up the middle, almost, see Horne down there, goes on to the center field for the base hit.
1040
01:45:06,860 --> 01:45:11,860
So no sooner said what he was doing than bingo, Kelly gets the base hit.
1041
01:45:11,860 --> 01:45:14,860
And that came awfully close to catching him on the bare hands.
1042
01:45:14,860 --> 01:45:19,860
So that's the fifth hit for the American League.
1043
01:45:19,860 --> 01:45:23,860
And now Harvey Keane gets his first shot at it.
1044
01:45:23,860 --> 01:45:29,860
He is the center fielder, laying out here for the Detroit Tigers, 3'56", on the regular season.
1045
01:45:29,860 --> 01:45:32,860
He has three homers, 33 RBI.
1046
01:45:32,860 --> 01:45:37,860
Right-hand batter takes the ball from Roy Face.
1047
01:45:37,860 --> 01:45:46,860
National League three, the American League one in the top half of the eighth, on a brilliant, sunshiny afternoon from the city of Pittsburgh.
1048
01:45:46,860 --> 01:45:57,860
A 1-0, bat-handled foul out of play to the left, one and o'er.
1049
01:45:57,860 --> 01:46:05,860
One ball and one strike, two down, and Kelly Fox, at first on a base hit, is first and fourth bat, a single right up the middle.
1050
01:46:05,860 --> 01:46:14,860
And it had to be pretty well-struck to get by Face because Delroy is one of the better feeling pitchers in the game.
1051
01:46:14,860 --> 01:46:16,860
Pretty deep in the batter's box is Harvey Keane.
1052
01:46:16,860 --> 01:46:31,860
One ball, one on the swing, two. Took the big swing and nothing was there. One ball, two strikes.
1053
01:46:31,860 --> 01:46:36,860
Bill Rigg may for lack of a better to do on the off-season to get into a 2-0 at throwing that good ball.
1054
01:46:36,860 --> 01:46:39,860
There's a delivery low, ball two, two-two.
1055
01:46:39,860 --> 01:46:46,860
When Rigg was asked why, he said, well, I just wanted to see if I could do something to get this guy ruffled up a bit.
1056
01:46:46,860 --> 01:46:52,860
But nothing seems to bother Delroy. He really doesn't know who's batting. He just has certain way of pitchers and that's it.
1057
01:46:52,860 --> 01:46:59,860
Two balls and two strikes.
1058
01:46:59,860 --> 01:47:03,860
Keane, you know, was moved right over to right field by Jimmy Dykes and clicked immediately over there.
1059
01:47:03,860 --> 01:47:08,860
Two-two pitch, and there's a ground ball, bat-handled foul down third, two-two.
1060
01:47:08,860 --> 01:47:15,860
The Tigers off to a very bad start, as everyone knows by now, and Jimmy Dykes, who used to be the coach for the Pittsburgh Pirates,
1061
01:47:15,860 --> 01:47:21,860
was then asked if he would take over the managerial range of the Detroit team and zoom them into contention.
1062
01:47:21,860 --> 01:47:26,860
Not overnight, because when you're about 0-15, you don't zoom anywhere overnight.
1063
01:47:26,860 --> 01:47:38,860
Two-two to Keane, low outside, ball three. Three balls, two strikes.
1064
01:47:38,860 --> 01:47:41,860
Joe Papparella, the American League, calling the balls and strikes.
1065
01:47:41,860 --> 01:47:43,860
Al Barlich has the front side.
1066
01:47:43,860 --> 01:47:51,860
And the game that was tied up in 1-1 broke open in the seventh when Banks deviled his second devil and cradled in the moment.
1067
01:47:51,860 --> 01:47:57,860
And the Radgey single, when it breaks, and it's ball four. That's the first walk given up by the National League pitching this afternoon.
1068
01:47:57,860 --> 01:47:59,860
And brings up the moose.
1069
01:47:59,860 --> 01:48:05,860
Scanlon, no, take that back, brings up power.
1070
01:48:05,860 --> 01:48:12,860
Vic Power of Kansas City.
1071
01:48:12,860 --> 01:48:16,860
Well, really, of Cleveland, Vic was at Kansas City. He's hitting at 3-0-1.
1072
01:48:16,860 --> 01:48:26,860
He's been moving around quite a bit, and he has nine homers, 36 RBI's. He's a very fine baseball player.
1073
01:48:26,860 --> 01:48:30,860
Low ball one.
1074
01:48:30,860 --> 01:48:37,860
Another great relief hurler. When you speak of fine relief hurlers, the Chicago Cubs have a pair in both Elston and Henry.
1075
01:48:37,860 --> 01:48:51,860
Right catch, 2-1-1.
1076
01:48:51,860 --> 01:49:07,860
And there he is, the American leaguer up Kansas City. He's a left-hander. They started off this eighth inning with every tariff mile zone in Minnesota with very little trouble. Then Fox single, he walked keen.
1077
01:49:07,860 --> 01:49:12,860
Power gets a dive into center field for the Bay City. Here comes Willie May, skipping for the ball.
1078
01:49:12,860 --> 01:49:27,860
And will make no play on Nellie Fox, and will throw the ball into the basket short, and the American League picks back into the ball game at 3-2, in favor of the Nationals now by only one.
1079
01:49:27,860 --> 01:49:33,860
Oh, that's going on for Vic, something the National League teams have not been able to do.
1080
01:49:33,860 --> 01:49:40,860
And here comes Ted Williams.
1081
01:49:40,860 --> 01:49:47,860
He's back for the right fielder of the Indians, Rocky Calabito. Ted Williams hitting a 2-1-7.
1082
01:49:47,860 --> 01:49:53,860
Five homers and 18 RBI's, but don't let that fool you.
1083
01:49:53,860 --> 01:50:01,860
The uncomfortable, blended Twitter. Ted Williams.
1084
01:50:01,860 --> 01:50:13,860
Bang-Durrell makes his move. 2-1, 2-2, 3-2, the National League in the eighth. The ball game now starts to turn into a loud and only a very unpromised it would be.
1085
01:50:13,860 --> 01:50:28,860
So that's the pitch. Ball outside to Williams. Do switches around on that plate. And look at every NCAA athlete up there.
1086
01:50:28,860 --> 01:50:40,860
One ball, no strike pitch. Low ball, 2. Ted's been in every all-star game that's ever been played except for towards his rookie year and those years in which he missed due to being in the service.
1087
01:50:40,860 --> 01:50:48,860
This fellow totally eclipsed the great record. The five-shot stop, Marky Vaughn, hung up for homers and he just pounded him out of everything.
1088
01:50:48,860 --> 01:51:06,860
2-0 pitch. Ball free to Williams. Roy Face is running into trouble.
1089
01:51:06,860 --> 01:51:18,860
3-0 to Ted Williams. American League in the top of the eighth with 2-1 and 2-0. Trailing 3-2. Williams batting for Calo Vito. Roy Face on the 3-0.
1090
01:51:18,860 --> 01:51:21,860
Thanks, Cole.
1091
01:51:21,860 --> 01:51:35,860
Ted, you might recall, broke his shoulder at Comiskey Park in the all-star game in 1950 when he went back to catch a fly ball hit by the great Ralph Keiner of the Pittsburgh Pirates.
1092
01:51:35,860 --> 01:51:44,860
Keiner tied it up and Shadice won it. Ball to Williams. Roy Face is loaded. That is the second walk.
1093
01:51:44,860 --> 01:51:55,860
That move is keen over the third. Puts the power up at second and brings up Baltimore's Jeff Fionnado who's 0-3.
1094
01:51:55,860 --> 01:52:06,860
Unless we get a pinch hitter. Stangle walking up and down.
1095
01:52:06,860 --> 01:52:11,860
Oh, wait a moment. They've called time. Looks like we're going to get a runner for Ted Williams.
1096
01:52:11,860 --> 01:52:30,860
Going to be Gil McDougal of the Yankees to run for Ted Williams. McDougal, the winner of the Lou Gehrig 5-0, the state of Memorial Award, is the F-League's fifth-five most wanted player.
1097
01:52:30,860 --> 01:52:41,860
That's good. Good strokemanship and everything you'd ever want to be. Treandte-Sempion takes the strike from Roy Face. Face is loaded before the American League. They have Harvey Keane at third.
1098
01:52:41,860 --> 01:52:46,860
Pick up power at second. McDougal running for Williams at first.
1099
01:52:46,860 --> 01:52:51,860
The outfield is shading Treandte-Sempion around to the left.
1100
01:52:51,860 --> 01:52:59,860
There's the foul back going through Treandte-Sempion in the regular season. There's 20 homers and 50 RBIs.
1101
01:52:59,860 --> 01:53:02,860
He's playing in a tough ballpark for home runs in Baltimore.
1102
01:53:05,860 --> 01:53:06,860
He's a big fella.
1103
01:53:06,860 --> 01:53:11,860
And he's the guy that has caught the dazzling assortment of knuckleballs, and in fact, like Will Hill.
1104
01:53:12,860 --> 01:53:14,860
No balls, two strikes to Big Gus Biondo.
1105
01:53:15,860 --> 01:53:20,860
Base runners lead away, as Little Roy Fates swings into the windup.
1106
01:53:20,860 --> 01:53:23,860
Around comes the arm, in comes the pitch, and it's a foul back out of play.
1107
01:53:23,860 --> 01:53:29,860
3-2, the National League in front, in the eighth inning.
1108
01:53:29,860 --> 01:53:34,860
The American League strikes back with a run win with two out, Nellie Fox singled up the middle.
1109
01:53:34,860 --> 01:53:40,860
Harvey Keene and Watt and Power singled in the middle, and in came Fox to score.
1110
01:53:40,860 --> 01:53:43,860
Then Ted Williams for the batter for Calovito drill.
1111
01:53:43,860 --> 01:53:54,860
Little Roy and the bases are loaded, it's nothing in through to Gus Biondo.
1112
01:53:54,860 --> 01:53:57,860
Now Roy in a long spare, now ready to go.
1113
01:53:57,860 --> 01:53:59,860
Here's the O2 pitch.
1114
01:53:59,860 --> 01:54:02,860
Ground ball, inside third, save ball, extra bases coming up.
1115
01:54:02,860 --> 01:54:04,860
It's trying to spare at least a fair run.
1116
01:54:04,860 --> 01:54:09,860
The ball comes out to the left field of Wally Murn, shoots it on in as they double for Gus Biondo.
1117
01:54:09,860 --> 01:54:19,860
Down inside third in the National League, now trail four to three.
1118
01:54:19,860 --> 01:54:25,860
Harvey Keene comes in to score, and Vic Power scores from second base.
1119
01:54:25,860 --> 01:54:29,860
Biondo, the catcher, double pumps a fair run.
1120
01:54:29,860 --> 01:54:35,860
And Roy Hamie comes out now to suck, as the American League has done to Elroy.
1121
01:54:35,860 --> 01:54:42,860
What no one was able to do in the National League, in addition to Elroy, walked a pair of batters.
1122
01:54:42,860 --> 01:54:48,860
And when you walk a couple of guys and you're playing in an all-star game, you usually get yourself into trouble.
1123
01:54:48,860 --> 01:54:53,860
And Biondo for the bases loaded, lags a double just inside third.
1124
01:54:53,860 --> 01:54:59,860
That sent Max Zuggles over to third after the other two runners Keene and Power had scored.
1125
01:54:59,860 --> 01:55:06,860
So three runs in here and the ending was two outs, and it's now four to three in the eighth.
1126
01:55:06,860 --> 01:55:22,860
The American League, and they have Daly and Whitey Ford warming up.
1127
01:55:22,860 --> 01:55:29,860
Pete Reynolds is coming out. We're going to wait and see what they're going to do.
1128
01:55:29,860 --> 01:55:36,860
We're going to get a pitcher coming in.
1129
01:55:36,860 --> 01:55:38,860
We're going to get a look at him for a moment.
1130
01:55:38,860 --> 01:55:40,860
I thought it was John Elston originally that had been warming up,
1131
01:55:40,860 --> 01:55:43,860
but he walked in like he might be John Antonelli of the San Francisco Giants.
1132
01:55:43,860 --> 01:55:46,860
From what I've seen, it's John Antonelli.
1133
01:55:46,860 --> 01:55:49,860
It is John Antonelli of the San Francisco Giants.
1134
01:55:49,860 --> 01:55:54,860
All right, that's five thirty seconds for station identification.
1135
01:55:54,860 --> 01:55:57,860
WGY, WGFM, connect today.
1136
01:55:57,860 --> 01:56:00,860
Now as always, Sera Pilka Vichy leads the league in sales.
1137
01:56:00,860 --> 01:56:07,860
No wonder, because only the genuine Sera Pilka Vichy with the famous yellow label has that extra dry vichy tang.
1138
01:56:07,860 --> 01:56:10,860
Assures you a perfect mixed drink every time.
1139
01:56:10,860 --> 01:56:14,860
Friends, don't be misled by imitations that taste like plain soft soda.
1140
01:56:14,860 --> 01:56:16,860
Demand a genuine Sera Pilka Vichy.
1141
01:56:16,860 --> 01:56:25,860
Get the yellow label, yellow label, yellow label, yellow label.
1142
01:56:25,860 --> 01:56:32,860
L.R.F. has pitched one and two-thirds innings and is now the pitcher of record
1143
01:56:32,860 --> 01:56:38,860
and is replaced by John Antonelli, the savvy fastball of the San Francisco Giants.
1144
01:56:38,860 --> 01:56:45,860
John Antonelli with an earned run average of 2.66 has won twelve and lost four.
1145
01:56:45,860 --> 01:56:52,860
And but for L.R.F. this twelve and O record would be the top hurler from the standpoint of record in the national league.
1146
01:56:52,860 --> 01:56:55,860
Now, Reynolds is in the game and out. He was a left-hand batter.
1147
01:56:55,860 --> 01:57:02,860
So catch him and put in Roy Severs, the home run hitting slugger of the Washington Senators.
1148
01:57:02,860 --> 01:57:07,860
That's Killebrew who had given way earlier to Malzah.
1149
01:57:07,860 --> 01:57:12,860
Malzah is the man that is being hit for, I do believe, unless,
1150
01:57:12,860 --> 01:57:19,860
and we'll have to wait development unless the pitcher was put into that spot.
1151
01:57:19,860 --> 01:57:24,860
But for the moment we'll call with Severs, Severs, Roy Severs in there of Washington,
1152
01:57:24,860 --> 01:57:28,860
hitting at 2.36. He has nine homers, twenty-one RBI.
1153
01:57:28,860 --> 01:57:30,860
He's a right-hand batter.
1154
01:57:30,860 --> 01:57:43,860
Roy Severs is charged with three runs and is responsible for Triandos' second shooting score.
1155
01:57:43,860 --> 01:57:46,860
Now Triandos is being run for by Mickey Mantle of the Yankees.
1156
01:57:46,860 --> 01:57:53,860
Mickey Mantle has gone in to run at second base for Gus Triandos.
1157
01:57:53,860 --> 01:58:01,860
Spangos shoots the bench and they all have fireworks here on the eighth inning.
1158
01:58:04,860 --> 01:58:13,860
Shots, Mantle runs for Triandos. Changes, Galoha are in order.
1159
01:58:13,860 --> 01:58:18,860
Mantle Valley works down to Severs inside the ball.
1160
01:58:18,860 --> 01:58:23,860
Severs in 57, his 42 homerun, is knocked in 114.
1161
01:58:23,860 --> 01:58:27,860
So he left the league. He's not off to that kind of a start this year,
1162
01:58:27,860 --> 01:58:30,860
but has had the great pick-up of Adelson and Killebrew helping him.
1163
01:58:30,860 --> 01:58:32,860
There's a shrinking in there by John Andonelli.
1164
01:58:32,860 --> 01:58:34,860
One ball, one strike.
1165
01:58:34,860 --> 01:58:38,860
Andonelli in the regular season ball to John.
1166
01:58:38,860 --> 01:58:41,860
Been in 21 ball, game started 20.
1167
01:58:41,860 --> 01:58:43,860
Winning 12, losing four.
1168
01:58:43,860 --> 01:58:47,860
Curves down inside, ball two, two balls and a strike.
1169
01:58:47,860 --> 01:58:50,860
Mac Diggle is at third.
1170
01:58:50,860 --> 01:58:52,860
He ran for Ted Riddick.
1171
01:58:52,860 --> 01:58:56,860
On at second base is Mickey Mantle running for Gus Triandos.
1172
01:58:56,860 --> 01:58:59,860
And Severs is up there batting.
1173
01:58:59,860 --> 01:59:01,860
Eighth man to get up in this inning.
1174
01:59:01,860 --> 01:59:06,860
Pitches of ball three, three balls and a strike.
1175
01:59:06,860 --> 01:59:10,860
Pitched on the outside corner.
1176
01:59:10,860 --> 01:59:13,860
Two men down by Roy Fates on the American League side of the eighth.
1177
01:59:13,860 --> 01:59:15,860
Went and pushed out of the thick away.
1178
01:59:15,860 --> 01:59:19,860
And before you knew it, had themselves three run, three one pitch receivers.
1179
01:59:19,860 --> 01:59:22,860
All four and they're loaded up.
1180
01:59:22,860 --> 01:59:28,860
That's the third walk in all three walks in this inning.
1181
01:59:28,860 --> 01:59:32,860
Now, Louis Aparicio is due to bat.
1182
01:59:32,860 --> 01:59:38,860
And is Aparicio being called out? Wait will we see.
1183
01:59:38,860 --> 01:59:43,860
Stengel is making a ton of moves.
1184
01:59:43,860 --> 01:59:48,860
I started to tell you earlier, Stengel you know, really flabbergasted the city of Pittsburgh when he said,
1185
01:59:48,860 --> 01:59:51,860
Now this early win is rather agent but still has good stuff.
1186
01:59:51,860 --> 01:59:58,860
And I must say he's experienced what I don't think will make him frightened when he sees all those National League names.
1187
01:59:58,860 --> 02:00:04,860
So I pick him when Wilhelm goes six on Sunday so I can't pitch him with his own catcher Triandos catching him like I want.
1188
02:00:04,860 --> 02:00:06,860
But this win has been around.
1189
02:00:06,860 --> 02:00:09,860
That's what Stengel said at the brush conference last night,
1190
02:00:09,860 --> 02:00:16,860
that by the time it was unraveled by everyone concerned, turned out to be, that he was going to start early win.
1191
02:00:16,860 --> 02:00:21,860
Sherem Lawler, the white star, is coming out. He's a catcher.
1192
02:00:21,860 --> 02:00:27,860
Sherem hitting a 273. 12 homers, 49 RBIs on the regular two.
1193
02:00:27,860 --> 02:00:37,860
He's a nice man to get up.
1194
02:00:37,860 --> 02:00:40,860
He's a nice man to get up in this inning.
1195
02:00:40,860 --> 02:00:44,860
Bases are loaded for the second time in the inning.
1196
02:00:44,860 --> 02:00:46,860
McDougal on third.
1197
02:00:46,860 --> 02:00:48,860
Mickey Mantle on second.
1198
02:00:48,860 --> 02:00:50,860
Roy Sebers is on it first.
1199
02:00:50,860 --> 02:00:52,860
And John Sherem Lawler up there, right hand better.
1200
02:00:52,860 --> 02:00:54,860
Swing ground ball down for third.
1201
02:00:54,860 --> 02:00:57,860
Up comes Matthews off the wrist and steps on third for the fourth time.
1202
02:00:57,860 --> 02:00:59,860
That ball came right up his wrist.
1203
02:00:59,860 --> 02:01:01,860
Really held on to it.
1204
02:01:01,860 --> 02:01:03,860
And so the National League gets out of it.
1205
02:01:03,860 --> 02:01:05,860
It showed three runs.
1206
02:01:05,860 --> 02:01:09,860
Three hits, no errors, and three left.
1207
02:01:09,860 --> 02:01:15,860
And so at the middle of the eighth, the score is the American League four, the National League three.
1208
02:01:15,860 --> 02:01:19,860
Well, you know, we just watched Casey Stangle make a ton of moves.
1209
02:01:19,860 --> 02:01:23,860
And we'll have to watch him again after this and we'll see how many changes he makes.
1210
02:01:23,860 --> 02:01:28,860
Casey is kind of famous for the way he can switch around his players and come up with a winner.
1211
02:01:28,860 --> 02:01:33,860
The old professor has just recently changed regs to always a Gillette man.
1212
02:01:33,860 --> 02:01:36,860
He's now using that new Gillette 195 adjustable.
1213
02:01:36,860 --> 02:01:38,860
Here's what he says about it.
1214
02:01:38,860 --> 02:01:41,860
I thought I was getting the finest shades possible until I tried this adjustable.
1215
02:01:41,860 --> 02:01:44,860
Now I'm more of a Gillette man than ever.
1216
02:01:44,860 --> 02:01:49,860
Be sure you see this amazing new regs because never before has there been a shaving instrument like it.
1217
02:01:49,860 --> 02:01:52,860
You set an adjusting collar on the handle to match your skin and beard.
1218
02:01:52,860 --> 02:01:56,860
You can turn, you know, to nine different degrees of edge exposures and angles.
1219
02:01:56,860 --> 02:01:59,860
Within this range, there's a setting that delivers a clean shave,
1220
02:01:59,860 --> 02:02:02,860
fast shave with comfort that's nothing short of sensational.
1221
02:02:02,860 --> 02:02:04,860
Gillette guarantees that or your money back.
1222
02:02:04,860 --> 02:02:08,860
The Gillette 195 adjustable is so popular many stores are out of stock.
1223
02:02:08,860 --> 02:02:12,860
So if you've been having trouble finding an order one now, watch it from your dealer.
1224
02:02:12,860 --> 02:02:16,860
He'll be receiving a new supply as soon as production permits.
1225
02:02:16,860 --> 02:02:21,860
Only $1.95 complete with blue blade dispenser and travel cape.
1226
02:02:21,860 --> 02:02:33,860
Well, ladies and gentlemen, a few changes have been made and Whitey Ford of the Yankees is on as a pitcher.
1227
02:02:33,860 --> 02:02:36,860
And Mickey Mantle's in the outfield.
1228
02:02:36,860 --> 02:02:39,860
We'll have to make these changes for you.
1229
02:02:39,860 --> 02:02:46,860
Whitey Ford is pitching. That we know.
1230
02:02:46,860 --> 02:02:52,860
Roller is catching.
1231
02:02:52,860 --> 02:03:01,860
McDougal has gone to short.
1232
02:03:01,860 --> 02:03:04,860
Mantle's in center field.
1233
02:03:04,860 --> 02:03:06,860
No, check that. He's in right.
1234
02:03:06,860 --> 02:03:11,860
Mantle's in right.
1235
02:03:11,860 --> 02:03:16,860
If you're trying to keep a score or whatever they bat, don't worry about it yet.
1236
02:03:16,860 --> 02:03:19,860
We'll get you straightened out on that.
1237
02:03:19,860 --> 02:03:24,860
We go to the National League 8 and Ken Boyer is going to bat.
1238
02:03:24,860 --> 02:03:27,860
You're batting place of our pitcher, John Antonelli.
1239
02:03:27,860 --> 02:03:31,860
I believe he was in the number one spot, Mazurowski.
1240
02:03:31,860 --> 02:03:41,860
Casey Stangl has got the plate on by Joe Paparello wrapped up in a long monologue down there.
1241
02:03:41,860 --> 02:03:45,860
He's got a center fielder in right and a right fielder in center.
1242
02:03:45,860 --> 02:03:47,860
Jack, you see him all the time in Chicago.
1243
02:03:47,860 --> 02:03:52,860
I presume these maneuvers are no strange thing at all in Chicago fandom.
1244
02:03:52,860 --> 02:03:53,860
No, nothing at all.
1245
02:03:53,860 --> 02:03:58,860
Anything Casey does is really inserting himself with surprises.
1246
02:03:58,860 --> 02:04:05,860
Well, here we are looking at it with Mantle in right field and Keane in center and Ken Boyer batting
1247
02:04:05,860 --> 02:04:09,860
and Whitey Ford on the hill and the curve is in for the called strike.
1248
02:04:09,860 --> 02:04:17,860
We'll catch you up on every record in the book when we get the opportunity.
1249
02:04:17,860 --> 02:04:20,860
No ball for one strike with a left-hander.
1250
02:04:20,860 --> 02:04:23,860
Fires down outside for the ball.
1251
02:04:23,860 --> 02:04:37,860
Whitey Ford of the Yankees has an earned run average of 3.20, has 1.8 and lost five for the champion in 1959.
1252
02:04:37,860 --> 02:04:45,860
The 1-1 pitch is run on by Boyer and Miss, 1 and 2.
1253
02:04:45,860 --> 02:04:52,860
This now sets it up where Bunning is the pitcher of record and Faith is the pitcher of record for the losing side,
1254
02:04:52,860 --> 02:04:53,860
for the moment.
1255
02:04:53,860 --> 02:04:54,860
Here's the 1 and 2.
1256
02:04:54,860 --> 02:05:02,860
Curve ball bounces away from our lotto, 2-2.
1257
02:05:02,860 --> 02:05:03,860
Last half of the eighth inning.
1258
02:05:03,860 --> 02:05:05,860
The National League trailing now 4-3.
1259
02:05:05,860 --> 02:05:08,860
Ken Boyer up there to see what he can do.
1260
02:05:08,860 --> 02:05:13,860
Try to lead off base end, 2-2.
1261
02:05:13,860 --> 02:05:15,860
Ground foul down third.
1262
02:05:15,860 --> 02:05:21,860
Boyer, you know, is the fine third baseman of the St. Louis Cards.
1263
02:05:21,860 --> 02:05:25,860
He's hitting a 3-0-4 currently, 16 homers and 56 RBIs.
1264
02:05:25,860 --> 02:05:29,860
For a big man, he's perhaps one of the fastest men in all of baseball for his size.
1265
02:05:29,860 --> 02:05:31,860
Great hands, great range at third.
1266
02:05:31,860 --> 02:05:33,860
2-2 pitch by Ford.
1267
02:05:33,860 --> 02:05:35,860
Check swing on a fastball that took off.
1268
02:05:35,860 --> 02:05:36,860
Tailed out.
1269
02:05:36,860 --> 02:05:41,860
They look like the screwball, but Matt Allen tells us that his fastball that tails is not the screwball, although it reacts like it.
1270
02:05:41,860 --> 02:05:48,860
3-2.
1271
02:05:48,860 --> 02:05:50,860
3-2 pitch to Boyer.
1272
02:05:50,860 --> 02:05:54,860
There's a chop off the left side, and it's on third in the left center for the base end.
1273
02:05:54,860 --> 02:05:56,860
McNewell going over from short, couldn't get it.
1274
02:05:56,860 --> 02:06:04,860
Center fielder Keane comes up, whacks it down, and Boyer has a base end.
1275
02:06:04,860 --> 02:06:05,860
Well, now let's see.
1276
02:06:05,860 --> 02:06:08,860
Remember, the National League is the home team.
1277
02:06:08,860 --> 02:06:13,860
Their opportunity is always to have the last at-bat.
1278
02:06:13,860 --> 02:06:15,860
Dick Kurt is coming out.
1279
02:06:15,860 --> 02:06:27,860
Good for Pittsburgh is coming out, and he's down to be not only a fine runner, but any of us that they get to do sky storm is one of the better hit-and-run players of the game.
1280
02:06:27,860 --> 02:06:36,860
Richard Marlgood, who had to make the substitution for him, whether he would be a professional baseball player or a professional basketball player,
1281
02:06:36,860 --> 02:06:44,860
and at Duke University, with one of the most famous basketball players of all time, he's a Pittsburgh boy.
1282
02:06:44,860 --> 02:06:46,860
Matt or Matthew?
1283
02:06:46,860 --> 02:06:48,860
Dick Groves.
1284
02:06:55,860 --> 02:06:57,860
Richard Groves hitting a 2-7-0.
1285
02:06:57,860 --> 02:06:59,860
Five homers, 36 RBI.
1286
02:06:59,860 --> 02:07:00,860
There's the bat.
1287
02:07:00,860 --> 02:07:05,860
Witte Forte comes up, throws it on to First Bay Tower, who makes the play there.
1288
02:07:05,860 --> 02:07:14,860
On the sacrifice, Boyer's in a second.
1289
02:07:14,860 --> 02:07:33,860
Dick Groves, you know, was the room head of the vice president's brother, Ed Nixon, down at Duke.
1290
02:07:33,860 --> 02:07:38,860
So he and Dick, the vice president and Dick Groves, have had a wonderful time visiting here in Pittsburgh.
1291
02:07:38,860 --> 02:07:42,860
Here's Henry Aaron up, cutting the ball for the single in the sixth inning.
1292
02:07:42,860 --> 02:07:47,860
The national league needs a run. They're down by one, four to three in here.
1293
02:07:47,860 --> 02:07:51,860
Witte Forte delivers, fast ball low, one ball, no strike.
1294
02:07:51,860 --> 02:07:56,860
Time call. Lauer wants to go out and talk it over now with Witte Forte.
1295
02:07:56,860 --> 02:08:02,860
Jim Funning pitched one inning, gave up two runs.
1296
02:08:02,860 --> 02:08:11,860
And the ones that put him in the soup, and then saw his team come back for enough runs to give him the blue chips for the moment.
1297
02:08:11,860 --> 02:08:19,860
Gave up three hits. Stuck out one. Did not walk anybody.
1298
02:08:19,860 --> 02:08:26,860
Bow back by Henry Aaron, one and one. A real tremendous threat at the plate is the right fielder of the Milwaukee Braves, Henry Aaron.
1299
02:08:26,860 --> 02:08:32,860
A lunging rattlesnake type of hitter. Has tremendous risk.
1300
02:08:32,860 --> 02:08:41,860
See it's a ball that'll start out with a short sample leap forward many times. A left fielder will want to go high over the wall.
1301
02:08:41,860 --> 02:08:46,860
That kind. One-one delivery outside. Two balls and a strike.
1302
02:08:46,860 --> 02:08:51,860
With one out of the score, American League four is an action to league three.
1303
02:08:51,860 --> 02:08:59,860
Foyer is at second base with a tying run, and Henry Aaron is working against Witte Forte of the Yankees.
1304
02:08:59,860 --> 02:09:04,860
Buddy Daley of Kansas City warming up again.
1305
02:09:04,860 --> 02:09:14,860
Secretary of the ballgame, traveling secretary, and the secretary for the National and the American League, Robert C. Wright, from the Pittsburgh Pirates.
1306
02:09:14,860 --> 02:09:18,860
He's down below checking on the comfort of all the fans.
1307
02:09:18,860 --> 02:09:21,860
There's a high chopper up on the left side. In there, a big step.
1308
02:09:21,860 --> 02:09:39,860
And Foyer comes down around third, and it's a single for Henry Aaron. That's all tight.
1309
02:09:39,860 --> 02:09:42,860
Henry Aaron ties it up with a ball that had eyes on it.
1310
02:09:42,860 --> 02:09:46,860
The ball is raised and leaped by everybody.
1311
02:09:46,860 --> 02:09:57,860
As the ball players say, anything that gets by a pitcher or two infielders, suggests every time anybody goes at it, why it seems to run away from you.
1312
02:09:57,860 --> 02:10:03,860
That's what's up there. Here's Maysup. He's 0 for 3. Witte Forte works a curve into the third ball.
1313
02:10:03,860 --> 02:10:17,860
4-4 ballgame in a real filler, as these two great squads from the American and the National League put on a devastating game of home runs and running and thrills galore.
1314
02:10:17,860 --> 02:10:22,860
The pitch swings by Willie, trying to put it out of the ballpark one and one.
1315
02:10:22,860 --> 02:10:32,860
A home run by K. Lyon as an example, and the one by Matthews marked the first two homers in the last three games.
1316
02:10:32,860 --> 02:10:38,860
And as Jack points out and did earlier, no extra bases at all last year. So here we're in with everything.
1317
02:10:38,860 --> 02:10:42,860
Willie Maysup, Henry Aaron off first. Pick power holding pitch.
1318
02:10:42,860 --> 02:10:45,860
Outside, ball two, two balls and a strike.
1319
02:10:45,860 --> 02:10:54,860
Down in the right field, Brokane. Foyer's warming up.
1320
02:10:54,860 --> 02:10:59,860
Two balls and a strike.
1321
02:10:59,860 --> 02:11:03,860
First play, good job, deep right center fielder, way back on County Keynes.
1322
02:11:03,860 --> 02:11:07,860
He can't catch it. The ball's at the top, 36 mark. Henry Aaron's got a star.
1323
02:11:07,860 --> 02:11:10,860
Willie Maysup around second. Willie comes to third.
1324
02:11:10,860 --> 02:11:33,860
I'm hoping to go for the right center fielder for Mays.
1325
02:11:33,860 --> 02:11:41,860
K. C. Sango has come out of the dugout. That's going to be all for Whitey Ford.
1326
02:11:41,860 --> 02:11:49,860
A booming triple by Willie Mays. Over the head of Harvey Keynes. Hit at the 436 mark on one hop.
1327
02:11:49,860 --> 02:12:01,860
And in came the big run that put Whitey Ford in the soup.
1328
02:12:01,860 --> 02:12:05,860
And Jack Brickhouse just points out a very interesting observation.
1329
02:12:05,860 --> 02:12:07,860
And you can see it as he walks in.
1330
02:12:07,860 --> 02:12:13,860
But daily, of Kansas City, who's a knuckleball pitcher, his right arm is considerably shorter than his left arm.
1331
02:12:13,860 --> 02:12:16,860
And he's a left hand pitcher, it must be pointed out.
1332
02:12:16,860 --> 02:12:25,860
So sometimes the implements of the trade develop the hand, all the arms, all the extremities in such a way that they become outside.
1333
02:12:25,860 --> 02:12:29,860
And one has against the other. Here's Whitey Ford sucking off the hill.
1334
02:12:29,860 --> 02:12:35,860
Whitey pitched exactly one third of an inning. And it was a sacrifice front by Jones who got that out in.
1335
02:12:35,860 --> 02:12:41,860
He's charged with two runs and could be tagged with another. He gave up three hits.
1336
02:12:41,860 --> 02:12:46,860
To Boyer, to Aaron, and the triple by Mays.
1337
02:12:46,860 --> 02:12:52,860
No strikeouts, no one. And daily, saw the national league as forged into the league.
1338
02:12:52,860 --> 02:12:58,860
How about a score of five to four? And based on what we've seen, there's more to follow.
1339
02:12:58,860 --> 02:13:03,860
But daily, of Kansas City.
1340
02:13:03,860 --> 02:13:13,860
In the regular season, one eight lost five. Left hand knuckleballer and Sherm Lawler will get the problem of trying to handle him.
1341
02:13:13,860 --> 02:13:23,860
They have made all the changes in America.
1342
02:13:23,860 --> 02:13:32,860
And really, when started, just to refresh your memory on this, and in three innings, about one run on two hits, struck out three.
1343
02:13:32,860 --> 02:13:35,860
Goddale pitched a perfect three innings.
1344
02:13:35,860 --> 02:13:38,860
It's just been announced and Jack Leans over to tell me about it.
1345
02:13:38,860 --> 02:13:44,860
There have been six players that have been batting in the seventh position in the lineup for the American League.
1346
02:13:44,860 --> 02:13:46,860
And I want to tell you, you can understand easily how.
1347
02:13:46,860 --> 02:13:51,860
They just keep, they're saying they'll keep firing them from one end of the spots to the other.
1348
02:13:51,860 --> 02:13:55,860
Now what it may is that third, and let's see what the American League infield will do.
1349
02:13:55,860 --> 02:14:05,860
It is now thorn.
1350
02:14:05,860 --> 02:14:11,860
That third, he's a tight MacDougald and short, Fox is second, and the power is first, and they're all up.
1351
02:14:11,860 --> 02:14:16,860
The right hand batting Ernie Banks, who has two hits today, both doubles.
1352
02:14:16,860 --> 02:14:24,860
Short a run, that was back in the seventh inning. So the long ball has been used by the National League to forge into the lead.
1353
02:14:24,860 --> 02:14:26,860
And Willie May has ever a threat.
1354
02:14:26,860 --> 02:14:35,860
Dances around at third, pitch to Banks, knuckleball strike called.
1355
02:14:35,860 --> 02:14:46,860
Four balls and one strike from Butt Daly, who is the fifth pitcher for the American League All-Stars this afternoon.
1356
02:14:46,860 --> 02:14:49,860
Daly checks on Willie May as it serves.
1357
02:14:49,860 --> 02:14:56,860
Infield stood up outfield around to the left of Banks.
1358
02:14:56,860 --> 02:15:00,860
It's a five-four ball game last half of the eighth. Here's the pitch.
1359
02:15:00,860 --> 02:15:05,860
Knuckleball hits, well, they went after that butterfly and just got a ticking piece of it.
1360
02:15:05,860 --> 02:15:12,860
Ernie Banks, ticking away at a knuckleball that danced every old play.
1361
02:15:12,860 --> 02:15:27,860
And now the fellow who is the owner of the most famous of them all, Hoyt Wilhelm of Baltimore, is warming up down the left field bullpen.
1362
02:15:27,860 --> 02:15:31,860
Right hander looks like Elston up again for Chicago's Cubs.
1363
02:15:31,860 --> 02:15:34,860
Way out the right field line, and the National League bullpen.
1364
02:15:34,860 --> 02:15:38,860
No balls, just strikes. Pitch to Banks and there's a foul coming back out of play.
1365
02:15:38,860 --> 02:15:44,860
Nothing to do.
1366
02:15:44,860 --> 02:15:50,860
Jack just points out on the bench that Ferris, the only one left for the American League, accepting two pitchers.
1367
02:15:50,860 --> 02:15:54,860
One of Wilhelm warming up right now.
1368
02:15:54,860 --> 02:15:58,860
The other's got to be Billy Pierce of Chicago.
1369
02:15:58,860 --> 02:16:04,860
Oh, nobody can say Stengel didn't use his stand.
1370
02:16:04,860 --> 02:16:08,860
No balls, just strikes.
1371
02:16:08,860 --> 02:16:15,860
There's a nut where this lollipop just went up and batted it down like it's water fly, just trying to keep it in the park.
1372
02:16:15,860 --> 02:16:19,860
You see, of course, the great argument about whether pitchers can make the ball curve and what have you.
1373
02:16:19,860 --> 02:16:23,860
They never, ever tried to just prove it or prove it when they had the knuckleball working.
1374
02:16:23,860 --> 02:16:28,860
Here's the one-two pitch. Banks strikes out on it.
1375
02:16:28,860 --> 02:16:32,860
Now that is the ninth strikeout against the National League.
1376
02:16:32,860 --> 02:16:40,860
Coupled with the American League's eighth at 17 strikeouts, too shy of the All-Star record for strikeouts by two clubs.
1377
02:16:40,860 --> 02:16:44,860
The nut was good in a 4-10 inning ball game.
1378
02:16:44,860 --> 02:16:52,860
Here is Orlando Cepeda. Hennies 0-3. Popped the short, hit into a double play, and popped up the short.
1379
02:16:52,860 --> 02:16:58,860
The infield now retreats for the American League, milestone MacDougall-Foxton power.
1380
02:16:58,860 --> 02:17:03,860
Banks called it Cepeda. Cepeda hits the longest home run ever seen here at Ford Field,
1381
02:17:03,860 --> 02:17:09,860
to the opposite field when he struck one a distance of 445 feet into right center.
1382
02:17:09,860 --> 02:17:12,860
No one has ever come near that.
1383
02:17:12,860 --> 02:17:14,860
No balls, one strike to Orlando.
1384
02:17:14,860 --> 02:17:19,860
Woodin has it third, his triple, knocked in the lead run, Henry Aaron, here on the National League's eighth inning.
1385
02:17:19,860 --> 02:17:24,860
Plops it up on the first base side. Dick Howard comes up. The ball is now dripped foul.
1386
02:17:24,860 --> 02:17:28,860
He goes over near the railing, leans over, and makes the catch for the out.
1387
02:17:28,860 --> 02:17:34,860
So all the innings showed three runs, three hits, no errors, and one left.
1388
02:17:34,860 --> 02:17:40,860
And at the end of eight innings of play, it's the National League Five and the American League Four.
1389
02:17:40,860 --> 02:17:49,860
Look sharp, be sharp, be sharp now is the mission. How will you make it for me?
1390
02:17:49,860 --> 02:17:53,860
How will you make it for me? You better ask.
1391
02:17:53,860 --> 02:17:57,860
You need to make sure you've got enough enough.
1392
02:17:57,860 --> 02:18:02,860
Cause the more and I'll be made to make it even by time.
1393
02:18:02,860 --> 02:18:05,860
How will you make it for me?
1394
02:18:05,860 --> 02:18:10,860
You better ask.
1395
02:18:10,860 --> 02:18:15,860
All right, ready to go now to the top of the night.
1396
02:18:15,860 --> 02:18:22,860
We're attempting to determine where and how the winning and losing pitch is going to be set up.
1397
02:18:22,860 --> 02:18:26,860
And it very likely will be as Elston now comes in.
1398
02:18:26,860 --> 02:18:29,860
In relief of John Antonelli.
1399
02:18:29,860 --> 02:18:33,860
It does appear that this will be an official score, it's not a problem.
1400
02:18:33,860 --> 02:18:37,860
Ken Boyer goes to third base for the National League.
1401
02:18:37,860 --> 02:18:44,860
And Don Elston, the fine right-hander and release pitcher, hitting, pitching at 225.
1402
02:18:44,860 --> 02:18:47,860
In other words, the in-run average is 2.25.
1403
02:18:47,860 --> 02:18:52,860
One five and lost one, that's one five in a row in relief for the Chicago Cubs.
1404
02:18:52,860 --> 02:18:56,860
He faces Malzone, a bunt that flanked Malzone.
1405
02:18:56,860 --> 02:19:10,860
He's over one back in the eighth inning, there's a high curve ball on.
1406
02:19:10,860 --> 02:19:12,860
One ball and no strike.
1407
02:19:12,860 --> 02:19:15,860
Elston's delivery, swing and a miss by Malzone, one and one.
1408
02:19:15,860 --> 02:19:19,860
We're down now to the point where this could be the final inning.
1409
02:19:19,860 --> 02:19:25,860
In a five-four ball game, John Antonelli went one third of an inning.
1410
02:19:25,860 --> 02:19:32,860
No run, no hit, didn't strike out, anybody did walk one.
1411
02:19:32,860 --> 02:19:37,860
Elston gets another fastball in there past the power of Malzone, right up in his letters,
1412
02:19:37,860 --> 02:19:47,860
but he had something on it, one and two as he swung inside.
1413
02:19:47,860 --> 02:19:50,860
Good pitcher of the afternoon for the National League All-Stars.
1414
02:19:50,860 --> 02:19:54,860
Don Elston, top half of the ninth, the National League leading five-four.
1415
02:19:54,860 --> 02:19:58,860
The right-hander works, foul back by Malzone.
1416
02:19:58,860 --> 02:20:03,860
Malzone, the right-hand batter, has a very wonderful target at which to swing in Boston,
1417
02:20:03,860 --> 02:20:05,860
the short left field porch as they call it.
1418
02:20:05,860 --> 02:20:08,860
He has 10 homers, 39 RBI's.
1419
02:20:08,860 --> 02:20:14,860
He's a very fine ball player.
1420
02:20:14,860 --> 02:20:18,860
Elston working to Malzone in the ninth inning for the American League.
1421
02:20:18,860 --> 02:20:19,860
They're down and run.
1422
02:20:19,860 --> 02:20:22,860
The American League has won the last two All-Star Classics.
1423
02:20:22,860 --> 02:20:28,860
Here's the one-two pitch up inside to two.
1424
02:20:28,860 --> 02:20:37,860
Manny Minosso is on deck.
1425
02:20:37,860 --> 02:20:42,860
Seventeen strikeouts in the ballgame, a couple of chives in record
1426
02:20:42,860 --> 02:20:46,860
for a total strikeout by two clubs in the All-Star Classics.
1427
02:20:46,860 --> 02:20:53,860
There's a pump up on the first base side and Macy Minosso in the stand and does.
1428
02:20:53,860 --> 02:20:59,860
Two-two.
1429
02:20:59,860 --> 02:21:04,860
One could not have asked for a more brilliant, beautiful, sunshiny afternoon.
1430
02:21:04,860 --> 02:21:11,860
And the day presented the baseball fans of Pittsburgh and the fans of the nation
1431
02:21:11,860 --> 02:21:14,860
for the 26th annual All-Star Classic.
1432
02:21:14,860 --> 02:21:16,860
Two-two pitch.
1433
02:21:16,860 --> 02:21:18,860
There's a high top, hit up on short, bank wanted.
1434
02:21:18,860 --> 02:21:20,860
Shortstop bank waiting.
1435
02:21:20,860 --> 02:21:22,860
Four-mile zone top.
1436
02:21:22,860 --> 02:21:25,860
Gets up two steps to the left, then one down.
1437
02:21:25,860 --> 02:21:29,860
Now Manny Minosso, who is all for four, he plowed the center, went out to second,
1438
02:21:29,860 --> 02:21:32,860
struck out and fouled out.
1439
02:21:32,860 --> 02:21:38,860
He's the left fielder today for the Cleveland Indians playing here in the American League All-Star.
1440
02:21:38,860 --> 02:21:39,860
Wally Moon is in left field.
1441
02:21:39,860 --> 02:21:40,860
Willie Mays is in center.
1442
02:21:40,860 --> 02:21:41,860
Henry Aaron is right.
1443
02:21:41,860 --> 02:21:42,860
They've not made a change there.
1444
02:21:42,860 --> 02:21:45,860
The National League has not made anywhere near the changes.
1445
02:21:45,860 --> 02:21:48,860
The American League has curbs.
1446
02:21:48,860 --> 02:21:51,860
One going to miss by Minosso, try to tie it up.
1447
02:21:51,860 --> 02:21:52,860
Moyer's in third.
1448
02:21:52,860 --> 02:21:53,860
Banks is short.
1449
02:21:53,860 --> 02:21:55,860
Mazurowski at second.
1450
02:21:55,860 --> 02:21:56,860
Capeted first.
1451
02:21:56,860 --> 02:21:59,860
Crandall has been doing the catching all the way.
1452
02:21:59,860 --> 02:22:05,860
And the pitcher is Don Elson, the great relief artist of the Chicago Cubs.
1453
02:22:05,860 --> 02:22:07,860
Hard curveball outside and low.
1454
02:22:07,860 --> 02:22:09,860
One ball, one strut.
1455
02:22:09,860 --> 02:22:21,860
One ball and one strut.
1456
02:22:21,860 --> 02:22:36,860
Low outside, football too, good one.
1457
02:22:36,860 --> 02:22:39,860
This game, a very explosive one.
1458
02:22:39,860 --> 02:22:43,860
Jack described in the first four and a half, just a home run or no count, a one-one,
1459
02:22:43,860 --> 02:22:46,860
and then everything burst loose in the seventh and eighth inning.
1460
02:22:46,860 --> 02:22:49,860
Two balls, one strike, and sucking away.
1461
02:22:49,860 --> 02:22:52,860
Minosso fouls it off way up over our heads to the right.
1462
02:22:52,860 --> 02:22:55,860
She did.
1463
02:22:55,860 --> 02:23:02,860
As an example in the short side at one and one, the National League in the seventh inning made it three to one their way.
1464
02:23:02,860 --> 02:23:06,860
In the eighth inning, the American League came back with three runs to take the lead four to three.
1465
02:23:06,860 --> 02:23:09,860
It's an action league for two in the eighth and it's five-four.
1466
02:23:09,860 --> 02:23:15,860
There's a strikeout swinging on Minosso, two down, and we're within one of tying a record on strikeouts.
1467
02:23:15,860 --> 02:23:24,860
Eighteen now, nineteen is the record, and that was a fourteen inning ball game.
1468
02:23:24,860 --> 02:23:30,860
That's the ninth strikeout, first for Don Elson.
1469
02:23:30,860 --> 02:23:36,860
And here's Nellie Fox, who struck out, fouled out the third, rolled out the second, and singled up the middle in the eighth and scored
1470
02:23:36,860 --> 02:23:42,860
one of the three runs when the American League took the lead on a short live basis four to three,
1471
02:23:42,860 --> 02:23:47,860
only to surrender it by four as the National League came back with eight or two runs in the eighth.
1472
02:23:47,860 --> 02:23:52,860
Nellie Fox, check swings on the hard curve inside below the knees ball on.
1473
02:23:52,860 --> 02:24:03,860
Nellie, left hand batter.
1474
02:24:03,860 --> 02:24:08,860
Don Elson, fifth pitcher of the afternoon, what's two down, none on? What's going on, Nellie Fox?
1475
02:24:08,860 --> 02:24:13,860
There's a liner out the right field line hooking, and it is up in the stands at the foul wall.
1476
02:24:13,860 --> 02:24:25,860
And Nellie Fox didn't miss it by much, a tying it up.
1477
02:24:25,860 --> 02:24:34,860
Well, Nellie Fox with two homers and forty-one RBI's just shared the daylight down the National League fans
1478
02:24:34,860 --> 02:24:41,860
with a two out, long blast to right, three hundred feet right down the line, he took a shot at it, and it hooked foul.
1479
02:24:41,860 --> 02:24:45,860
One ball, one strike, Don Elson again into the windup.
1480
02:24:45,860 --> 02:24:49,860
There's a looper to left for the basehead, he went to the outstretched field on a curve ball,
1481
02:24:49,860 --> 02:24:56,860
Wally Moon comes up with it, they stay alive, these American Leaguers.
1482
02:24:56,860 --> 02:25:01,860
That'll bring up Harvey Keene, who walked in the eighth and scored a run.
1483
02:25:01,860 --> 02:25:07,860
I remember Harvey Keene in front of Adler, he's hitting it three fifty-six.
1484
02:25:07,860 --> 02:25:15,860
Two down, and now, a lot of action again.
1485
02:25:15,860 --> 02:25:25,860
Warren Spahn is up for the Milwaukee Braves, there's the pitch, inside a ball, the Harvey Keene.
1486
02:25:25,860 --> 02:25:29,860
And Gene Conley of Philadelphia is also up.
1487
02:25:29,860 --> 02:25:32,860
One ball and no strikes, the pitch.
1488
02:25:32,860 --> 02:25:37,860
The ball bounces off to the left, there goes the tying run into second and Nellie Fox,
1489
02:25:37,860 --> 02:25:42,860
and he bluffs the throw to third, there's a skipping throw by Crandall on down to Foyer to hold the runner there,
1490
02:25:42,860 --> 02:25:50,860
and it's a wild pitch charged to Don Elson.
1491
02:25:50,860 --> 02:25:55,860
Well, that little statement, the game is never over until the final round against the Rear Adductor,
1492
02:25:55,860 --> 02:26:00,860
a little head as far as the National Leaguers are concerned.
1493
02:26:00,860 --> 02:26:05,860
Now the tying run in Nellie Fox has been a wild pitch to second base,
1494
02:26:05,860 --> 02:26:10,860
and there's a pretty fair man up there with a stick in the name of Harvey Keene at three fifty-six
1495
02:26:10,860 --> 02:26:17,860
for the Detroit Tigers.
1496
02:26:17,860 --> 02:26:23,860
Pitch from Elson, a long drive to left field, it is curving, it is out of here somehow.
1497
02:26:23,860 --> 02:26:38,860
Well, I want to tell you Harvey Keene laid the wood to that one.
1498
02:26:38,860 --> 02:26:41,860
He only has three homers this year, thirty-three Harvey has,
1499
02:26:41,860 --> 02:26:47,860
but he just about puts the American League in his game of inches back into the lead.
1500
02:26:47,860 --> 02:26:50,860
Two balls and a strike now, Nellie Fox on second base.
1501
02:26:50,860 --> 02:26:53,860
The score, five-four, National League top of the night.
1502
02:26:53,860 --> 02:26:55,860
The pitch, foul back.
1503
02:26:55,860 --> 02:26:57,860
Elson's playing a good, moving pitch that time,
1504
02:26:57,860 --> 02:27:13,860
and it's a little just enough that he found it off to the right, two-two.
1505
02:27:13,860 --> 02:27:17,860
Two balls and two strikes.
1506
02:27:17,860 --> 02:27:22,860
Well, let's see now, if Elson's able to go to his favorite outpitch on a two-two delivery,
1507
02:27:22,860 --> 02:27:26,860
a curve ball that won't quit.
1508
02:27:26,860 --> 02:27:29,860
Here's the look, the pitch, there's the curve.
1509
02:27:29,860 --> 02:27:32,860
Ooh, Elson says he thought he had it so did the catcher,
1510
02:27:32,860 --> 02:27:39,860
and it's called ball three, three and two.
1511
02:27:39,860 --> 02:27:42,860
Three balls and two strikes.
1512
02:27:42,860 --> 02:27:46,860
Elson went right to his knee, supplication.
1513
02:27:46,860 --> 02:27:53,860
Three balls and two strikes now to Harvey Keane with Nellie Fox on second base,
1514
02:27:53,860 --> 02:27:55,860
two out in the night.
1515
02:27:55,860 --> 02:27:59,860
The look, the pitch, pop it up foul off the first-rate side,
1516
02:27:59,860 --> 02:28:03,860
Randall Ann Boyer, Boyer stays with it, that's it.
1517
02:28:03,860 --> 02:28:07,860
The National League beats the American League all-star.
1518
02:28:07,860 --> 02:28:11,860
The final score is the National League five runs on nine hits and one error,
1519
02:28:11,860 --> 02:28:15,860
the American League four runs on eight hits and no errors.
1520
02:28:15,860 --> 02:28:19,860
In a moment, we'll review the highlights of the ballgame for you.
1521
02:28:19,860 --> 02:28:21,860
Well, it's happened, ladies.
1522
02:28:21,860 --> 02:28:24,860
They've put an end to the messiest part of a home permanent.
1523
02:28:24,860 --> 02:28:29,860
Now, new No-Mix Tony has a neutralizer that's actually easy to use.
1524
02:28:29,860 --> 02:28:32,860
The first neutralizer becomes already mixed.
1525
02:28:32,860 --> 02:28:36,860
No more watery neutralizing like old-fashioned permanents.
1526
02:28:36,860 --> 02:28:38,860
No more fixing and mixing.
1527
02:28:38,860 --> 02:28:40,860
No more drenching and dripping.
1528
02:28:40,860 --> 02:28:41,860
Never again.
1529
02:28:41,860 --> 02:28:44,860
With new No-Mix Tony, there's no powder.
1530
02:28:44,860 --> 02:28:46,860
No water to mix.
1531
02:28:46,860 --> 02:28:52,860
Tony's No-Mix neutralizer comes remixed and concentrated in a handy little plastic bottle.
1532
02:28:52,860 --> 02:28:54,860
Just nip off the tip and squeeze.
1533
02:28:54,860 --> 02:28:56,860
What a creamy neutralizer.
1534
02:28:56,860 --> 02:29:01,860
It's full of rich conditioning liquids that give you Tony's famous hidden body.
1535
02:29:01,860 --> 02:29:05,860
And that's what holds any hairstyle like no other permanent can.
1536
02:29:05,860 --> 02:29:07,860
Get new No-Mix Tony.
1537
02:29:07,860 --> 02:29:11,860
Put hidden body into your hair this new easy way.
1538
02:29:11,860 --> 02:29:15,860
It's the first permanent with neutralizer already mixed.
1539
02:29:15,860 --> 02:29:20,860
New No-Mix Tony.
1540
02:29:20,860 --> 02:29:23,860
Well, ladies and gentlemen, this is Jack Brickhotts back in the Moosehound,
1541
02:29:23,860 --> 02:29:24,860
Morton Field, and Pittsburgh.
1542
02:29:24,860 --> 02:29:27,860
And here's a little brief review of what went on this afternoon out here.
1543
02:29:27,860 --> 02:29:29,860
And one of the most thrilling, one of the most exciting,
1544
02:29:29,860 --> 02:29:32,860
and one of the most entertaining of all the All-Star games
1545
02:29:32,860 --> 02:29:37,860
is the National League drew up closer to the American League win total in this series.
1546
02:29:37,860 --> 02:29:40,860
With the 26th game, found the National League winning their number 11,
1547
02:29:40,860 --> 02:29:43,860
the American League has 115.
1548
02:29:43,860 --> 02:29:47,860
Here are the totals for the winning National Leaguers, five runs, nine hits, and one error.
1549
02:29:47,860 --> 02:29:50,860
The winning pitcher was Johnny Antonelli.
1550
02:29:50,860 --> 02:29:55,860
They used Drysdale for Deft Base Antonelli and Don Elston of that order.
1551
02:29:55,860 --> 02:29:59,860
And the American League had four runs on eight hits and no evers.
1552
02:29:59,860 --> 02:30:05,860
And the American League used Wynn, Zirin, Bunning, Ford, and Daly.
1553
02:30:05,860 --> 02:30:06,860
They really used plenty.
1554
02:30:06,860 --> 02:30:09,860
As a matter of fact, Casey Sangles used 22 men in this ball game.
1555
02:30:09,860 --> 02:30:14,860
And at one stage of the game, the only ones left down there were Daly and Pearson, the full fence,
1556
02:30:14,860 --> 02:30:17,860
and Yogi Vera and Casey himself on the bench.
1557
02:30:17,860 --> 02:30:24,860
It must have been an interesting conversation between Yogi and Casey Sangles, two great grammarians,
1558
02:30:24,860 --> 02:30:28,860
one of whom has built up a vocabulary by reading lots of comic books,
1559
02:30:28,860 --> 02:30:34,860
and the other who has been described as a man who talks like a fellow coming out of the anesthetic.
1560
02:30:34,860 --> 02:30:37,860
Anyway, it was one of the most interesting baseball games we've ever seen,
1561
02:30:37,860 --> 02:30:41,860
and we've been lucky enough to have seen most of these All-Star contests, as has Bob.
1562
02:30:41,860 --> 02:30:46,860
The official enough gate count was 34,763.
1563
02:30:46,860 --> 02:30:52,860
The tickets sold were 35,277, which means that a few people who bought tickets didn't make it to the ballpark today.
1564
02:30:52,860 --> 02:30:54,860
We're not going to go over the whole game for you,
1565
02:30:54,860 --> 02:31:00,860
but we do want to point out that you can find all sorts of heroes and very few goats in this ball game today.
1566
02:31:00,860 --> 02:31:04,860
Certainly one of the standout performances came a couple of hours ago,
1567
02:31:04,860 --> 02:31:09,860
and a little better when at the opening of this particular performance here in Pittsburgh,
1568
02:31:09,860 --> 02:31:14,860
Don Drysdale retired the first nine men he faced, struck out four, walked nobody,
1569
02:31:14,860 --> 02:31:18,860
was followed by Berta, who struck out a couple, Faye struck out a couple, and Denali,
1570
02:31:18,860 --> 02:31:22,860
and Ford were the only pitchers who did not strike out somebody today.
1571
02:31:22,860 --> 02:31:26,860
Early wind struck out three, but he gave up that home run ball, so that's right there,
1572
02:31:26,860 --> 02:31:30,860
just about white-dotted chance of being the winning pitcher two years in a row.
1573
02:31:30,860 --> 02:31:31,860
He was the winner last year.
1574
02:31:31,860 --> 02:31:35,860
Ryan Durin struck out four while walking only one, and Bunning got a strike out,
1575
02:31:35,860 --> 02:31:37,860
and Daley got a strike out in his performance at the end of the game.
1576
02:31:37,860 --> 02:31:43,860
All told, there were nine strikeouts on each side, a total of 18 and one short on the record for two teams.
1577
02:31:43,860 --> 02:31:45,860
The record for one team is a dozen.
1578
02:31:45,860 --> 02:31:50,860
Again, our congratulations to everybody, and of course, just the eighth inning alone was worth the price of admission
1579
02:31:50,860 --> 02:31:55,860
as the American Leaguers came up with three big runs, batted around to do it,
1580
02:31:55,860 --> 02:31:58,860
and it looked like they had finally come from behind in typical American League style,
1581
02:31:58,860 --> 02:32:01,860
which they've done many times before to win the ball game,
1582
02:32:01,860 --> 02:32:04,860
but the National League had it when they had to have it in their half of the eighth inning,
1583
02:32:04,860 --> 02:32:12,860
and with base hits by Boyer, a great clutch bunt by Nick Rood, a very significant bunt,
1584
02:32:12,860 --> 02:32:16,860
shutting up a chance for Hank Aaron to belt one, and then Willie May's triple,
1585
02:32:16,860 --> 02:32:19,860
which brought in Aaron with what turned out to be the winning run,
1586
02:32:19,860 --> 02:32:22,860
and there you had a very, very explosive eighth inning.
1587
02:32:22,860 --> 02:32:25,860
Well, we certainly hope you've enjoyed today's game,
1588
02:32:25,860 --> 02:32:28,860
one of the many events brought to you on the Gillette Cavalcade of sports.
1589
02:32:28,860 --> 02:32:32,860
We have a World's Wilderweight title strap on 10th for you Friday night,
1590
02:32:32,860 --> 02:32:37,860
July the 10th when Don Shorten defends his crown against Dennis Boyer in a 15-rounder.
1591
02:32:37,860 --> 02:32:41,860
So plan to be with us via radio or television and enjoy all the excitement.
1592
02:32:41,860 --> 02:32:44,860
Our thanks to our NBC engineer, Harry Alexander.
1593
02:32:44,860 --> 02:32:48,860
This broadcast was produced by NBC Sports editor Paul Jonas,
1594
02:32:48,860 --> 02:32:51,860
and this is Jack Brickhouse saying, along with Bob Prince,
1595
02:32:51,860 --> 02:32:58,860
smooth sailing, smooth shaving, and good afternoon for your host, the Gillette Safety Razor Company.
