2
00:00:06,500 --> 00:00:12,500
Now here are the batting orders in the game. First game will be Chicago, Don Kessinger leading off at shortstop.
3
00:00:12,500 --> 00:00:22,500
Glenn Beckert at second base. Jim Hickman in right field. Ron Santo at third and now the Dodgers take the field.
4
00:00:22,500 --> 00:00:32,500
Cleo James just called up from the cover will play left field. Cleo the ex-Dodger. Billy Williams gets the first game off.
5
00:00:32,500 --> 00:00:39,500
Brock Davis will play center. Ernie Banks at first base so Pepitone is still out of action.
6
00:00:39,500 --> 00:00:47,500
Chris Cannizzaro the catcher. And Milt Pappas to do the pitching.
7
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:59,500
For the Dodgers, Maury Wills at short. Willie Crawford in left. Willie Davis in center.
8
00:00:59,500 --> 00:01:12,500
Richie Allen at third. Wes Parker at first base. Duke Simms catching. Jimmy LeFevre at second.
9
00:01:12,500 --> 00:01:17,500
Bill Buckner in right. And Al Downing to do the pitching.
10
00:01:17,500 --> 00:01:23,500
And as the Dodgers go on the field on the scoreboard it shows Astros 18, Giants 4.
11
00:01:23,500 --> 00:01:31,500
The Astros had a 10 run fourth inning and a 6 run sixth inning as they clobbered the Giants 18 to 4.
12
00:01:31,500 --> 00:01:36,500
Larry Durker was the winner and Stone was the loser. No home runs in candlestick today.
13
00:01:36,500 --> 00:01:40,500
So the Dodgers have a chance to pick up a lot of ground here in their doubleheader.
14
00:01:40,500 --> 00:01:45,500
The Dodgers and the Cubs all set to play too. The Cubs hold the season edge by 4.
15
00:01:45,500 --> 00:01:52,500
Al Downing works the first game. Doyle Alexander the nightcap against Juan Pizarro, the veteran lefty just recalled from Tacoma.
16
00:01:52,500 --> 00:01:56,500
The umpire sued all of the plates. Steiner, Engel, and Landis on the bases.
17
00:01:56,500 --> 00:02:00,500
And you still have plenty of time to come out and take in a lot of baseball here tonight.
18
00:02:00,500 --> 00:02:06,500
Games 2 and 3 of the series with the fourth game coming up tomorrow night, the finale of the series.
19
00:02:06,500 --> 00:02:11,500
But a big doubleheader here tonight at Dodger Stadium. Okay we're all set. Time to play ball.
20
00:02:11,500 --> 00:02:15,500
The Dodgers and the Chicago Cubs now for the play by play. Here's Vin Scully. Vinny?
21
00:02:15,500 --> 00:02:19,500
Thank you Jerry. Hi everybody and a very pleasant good evening to you. Welcome to the doubleheader.
22
00:02:19,500 --> 00:02:23,500
We hope you'll be out here to join us before what should be a great evening comes to an end.
23
00:02:23,500 --> 00:02:34,500
The Dodgers and Cubs into Don Kessinger, Glenn Beckard, and Jim Hickman in that order against Al Downing who has won 3 straight and 6 of his last 7 starts.
24
00:02:34,500 --> 00:02:43,500
Downing has 3 shutouts. The latest one that 1-0 matched a P.C. pitch over Dave Roberts in San Diego.
25
00:02:43,500 --> 00:02:48,500
And Al with 10 victories and only one other left hander in the National League who has won more.
26
00:02:48,500 --> 00:02:54,500
Steve Calden has 11. So Downing trying to catch the big lanky left-hander from St. Louis tonight.
27
00:02:54,500 --> 00:03:00,500
Downing ready and the pitch to Kessinger is lifted down the right field line slicing on Buckner but it's high enough.
28
00:03:00,500 --> 00:03:08,500
And Billy gets to it for the out just in fair ground. The one pitch and one away and the batter will be Glenn Beckard.
29
00:03:08,500 --> 00:03:13,500
As if the Dodgers needed to be spurred on it's all spelled out for them on the message board.
30
00:03:13,500 --> 00:03:21,500
The Astros 18 and the Giants 4. The Astros had a 10 run 4th inning, a 6 run 6th inning.
31
00:03:21,500 --> 00:03:26,500
The remarkable thing about that game there were no home runs.
32
00:03:26,500 --> 00:03:36,500
Glenn Beckard right hand hitting second baseman and a dandy takes high ball 1, 1-0.
33
00:03:36,500 --> 00:03:42,500
The Dodgers with the regular cast out there. Downing comes back to the plate 1-0 and gets a strike 1-1.
34
00:03:42,500 --> 00:03:45,500
And he sued all of firing behind the plate.
35
00:03:45,500 --> 00:03:53,500
The West Parker and Jimmy LaFever, Lori Wills and Richie Allen with Crawford Davis and Buckner in the outfield in a bright sunshiny part of the day.
36
00:03:53,500 --> 00:04:02,500
As they drive to right field Buckner backs up and makes the catch right at the chest. So Billy has handled two and we have two down.
37
00:04:02,500 --> 00:04:08,500
That'll bring up Jim Hickman, the right fielder.
38
00:04:08,500 --> 00:04:16,500
The quiet man from Tennessee hitting 2-28.
39
00:04:16,500 --> 00:04:23,500
Duke Sim settling behind the plate and Hickman waits up there with Ron Santo in the clean up spot in the on deck circle.
40
00:04:23,500 --> 00:04:27,500
Downing into the wind up and the pitch to Hickman high and away, ball 1.
41
00:04:27,500 --> 00:04:34,500
Two men have a little bit of shade from the shadows thrown by the light towers, Richie Allen at third base and Willie Crawford in left field.
42
00:04:34,500 --> 00:04:38,500
Everybody else in brilliant sunshine.
43
00:04:38,500 --> 00:04:45,500
Downing's 1-0 pitch to Jim Hickman, breaking ball, stayed up and away, ball 2, 2-0.
44
00:04:45,500 --> 00:04:48,500
Downing gave the club a big shutout, the tenth for the staff.
45
00:04:48,500 --> 00:04:51,500
The Dodgers lead the league in shutouts with ten.
46
00:04:51,500 --> 00:05:01,500
The palm ball is swung on and missed, 2-1.
47
00:05:01,500 --> 00:05:04,500
Downing with his three shutouts is tied for second place.
48
00:05:04,500 --> 00:05:06,500
Steve Blass of Pittsburgh has four.
49
00:05:06,500 --> 00:05:14,500
The 2-1 pitch on the way, good breaking ball, swung on and missed right to Marisha Wise, Holtzman and Carlton.
50
00:05:14,500 --> 00:05:17,500
Are tied along with Downing with three shutouts apiece.
51
00:05:17,500 --> 00:05:20,500
Al, of course, has been quite a story.
52
00:05:20,500 --> 00:05:26,500
The 2-2 pitch to Jim Hickman, fast ball, popped in the air to right field and Buckner gets them all.
53
00:05:26,500 --> 00:05:29,500
Shielding his eyes from the sun, waiting and makes the catch.
54
00:05:29,500 --> 00:05:35,500
So the Cubs are gone on fly balls to Buckner and at the end of the half an inning, Cubs nothing, Dodgers coming up.
55
00:05:35,500 --> 00:05:38,500
Schlitz, Milwaukee and the world.
56
00:05:38,500 --> 00:06:07,500
Music
57
00:06:07,500 --> 00:06:10,500
When you only get one life to live, you live it to the hilt.
58
00:06:10,500 --> 00:06:13,500
Because second chances are never handed out.
59
00:06:13,500 --> 00:06:18,500
So you go for the best of your life and you take your pleasures where you find them.
60
00:06:18,500 --> 00:06:21,500
Like Schlitz, why settle for less?
61
00:06:21,500 --> 00:06:24,500
When you're out of Schlitz, you're out of beer.
62
00:06:24,500 --> 00:06:35,500
Music
63
00:06:35,500 --> 00:06:38,500
Bottom of the first inning, the Cubs turned away empty handed.
64
00:06:38,500 --> 00:06:43,500
The Dodgers coming up in a moment and right-hander, Mil Pappas, loosening up to his battery mate, Chris Canagero.
65
00:06:43,500 --> 00:06:50,500
The Cubs with the leather, Ernie Banks at first, Glenn Beckard at second, Don Kessinger at short, Ron Santo at third.
66
00:06:50,500 --> 00:06:56,500
In the outfield, Cleon James, who has been called up, is in left field.
67
00:06:56,500 --> 00:07:01,500
The center fielder, Brock Davis and the right fielder, Jim Hickman.
68
00:07:01,500 --> 00:07:08,500
James, purchased from Tacoma, joined the Cubs tonight, Cleo 30 years old, at one time with the Dodgers.
69
00:07:08,500 --> 00:07:10,500
So he's in left field.
70
00:07:10,500 --> 00:07:13,500
And Mil Pappas ready.
71
00:07:13,500 --> 00:07:16,500
Maury Wills will start things off for the Dodgers.
72
00:07:16,500 --> 00:07:19,500
Wills batting 292.
73
00:07:19,500 --> 00:07:32,500
Music
74
00:07:32,500 --> 00:07:36,500
Maury Wills batting left-handed, and he's about 80 points better from this side of the plate.
75
00:07:36,500 --> 00:07:38,500
He's hitting 321 left-handed.
76
00:07:38,500 --> 00:07:42,500
Mil Pappas, somewhat like Ferguson Jenkins last night.
77
00:07:42,500 --> 00:07:44,500
He delivers low ball one.
78
00:07:44,500 --> 00:07:48,500
Jenkins has started 20 games, and he has a decision for every game he started.
79
00:07:48,500 --> 00:07:50,500
Jenkins is 12-8.
80
00:07:50,500 --> 00:07:53,500
Pappas has started 16 games, and he's 8-8.
81
00:07:53,500 --> 00:07:56,500
The pitch is spiked in the count, 1-1.
82
00:07:56,500 --> 00:07:59,500
Pappas is making his fourth start against the Dodgers.
83
00:07:59,500 --> 00:08:02,500
The first two resulted in complete game victories.
84
00:08:02,500 --> 00:08:05,500
The last one he was knocked out at the six innings.
85
00:08:05,500 --> 00:08:09,500
The pitch to Wills outside, ball two, 2-1.
86
00:08:09,500 --> 00:08:13,500
Pappas in his career against the Dodgers, 9-8.
87
00:08:13,500 --> 00:08:18,500
Milt, like Jenkins, a good hitting pitcher, and a veteran.
88
00:08:18,500 --> 00:08:19,500
Right-handers, 2-1 pitch.
89
00:08:19,500 --> 00:08:20,500
Wills pulls away.
90
00:08:20,500 --> 00:08:23,500
It's low and inside, ball three, 3-1.
91
00:08:23,500 --> 00:08:30,500
Pappas in 116 innings has walked only 35.
92
00:08:30,500 --> 00:08:32,500
Milt arms dangle as he reads Canagero.
93
00:08:32,500 --> 00:08:34,500
He's a quick worker, and the 3-1 pitch is over.
94
00:08:34,500 --> 00:08:36,500
Strike two, 3-2.
95
00:08:36,500 --> 00:08:41,500
I would think you couldn't find a quicker game, especially if both men were on your game,
96
00:08:41,500 --> 00:08:45,500
than if the Cubs played the Cardinals and Milt Pappas pitched against Bob Gibson.
97
00:08:45,500 --> 00:08:47,500
That would have to be one of the quicker games of the year.
98
00:08:47,500 --> 00:08:51,500
Ground ball up the middle, Becker to his right, is up with his throws back to Banks in time.
99
00:08:51,500 --> 00:08:57,500
One away, Wills rolls out to the second baseman, and the batter is Willie Crawford.
100
00:08:57,500 --> 00:09:04,500
Batting time, number 27, left field, Willie Crawford.
101
00:09:04,500 --> 00:09:10,500
Willie Crawford has hit safely in seven of his last nine games.
102
00:09:10,500 --> 00:09:13,500
He's at 333 over that span.
103
00:09:13,500 --> 00:09:17,500
Interesting to point out the National League East and National League West this year,
104
00:09:17,500 --> 00:09:23,500
and of course the West has made a drastic change when the Giants were way out in front by 11 and now come back.
105
00:09:23,500 --> 00:09:25,500
Pitch filed away by Crawford, 0-1.
106
00:09:25,500 --> 00:09:31,500
Last year, the Dodgers were second to the Reds, and it seemed like we were forever pointing out the fact
107
00:09:31,500 --> 00:09:36,500
that if the Dodgers had been playing in the Eastern Division, this would have happened, and that would have happened, etc.
108
00:09:36,500 --> 00:09:43,500
It is the Cubs' turn to point out what's going on in the National League East as opposed to the National League West.
109
00:09:43,500 --> 00:09:51,500
The Cubs have been playing good ball, they're a hot ball club, playing over 650 in their last 32 games.
110
00:09:51,500 --> 00:09:53,500
The pitch to Crawford is high.
111
00:09:53,500 --> 00:10:02,500
However, since the 1st of June and playing over 650, the Cubs have picked up only a game and a half on the Blazing Pirates.
112
00:10:02,500 --> 00:10:05,500
The 1-1 pitch, Crawford takes high, ball two.
113
00:10:05,500 --> 00:10:10,500
The Dodgers have won 22 and lost 12 over the same period.
114
00:10:10,500 --> 00:10:13,500
They have picked up seven games on the Giants.
115
00:10:17,500 --> 00:10:20,500
The Cubs start tonight nine back of the Pirates.
116
00:10:20,500 --> 00:10:23,500
Crawford takes way outside and high, ball three, three and one.
117
00:10:23,500 --> 00:10:28,500
The Pirates, somewhat surprisingly, have really pulled out in front of the Mets.
118
00:10:28,500 --> 00:10:31,500
The Mets are in a dive. They have now lost seven out of eight.
119
00:10:31,500 --> 00:10:36,500
They lost today, so the Mets are technically six games back of the Pirates right now.
120
00:10:36,500 --> 00:10:38,500
Here's the 3-1 pitch.
121
00:10:38,500 --> 00:10:43,500
Crawford takes a strike, and boy is it a demonstrative strike for Ed Soudal.
122
00:10:44,500 --> 00:10:46,500
Ed is an old-fashioned umpire.
123
00:10:46,500 --> 00:10:51,500
He really lets you know whether you're sitting behind the plate or in the most remote seat in the bleachers.
124
00:10:51,500 --> 00:10:54,500
You watch Eddie Soudal, you know whether it's a ball or a strike.
125
00:10:54,500 --> 00:11:03,500
3-2 pitch to Willie Crawford is hitting the air off third base foul. Soudal looking over his shoulder as he goes into the shade and makes the catch.
126
00:11:03,500 --> 00:11:05,500
Two down.
127
00:11:07,500 --> 00:11:09,500
The batter will be Willie Davis.
128
00:11:15,500 --> 00:11:22,500
One of the big questions unanswered for either team, the pitch is for tomorrow night.
129
00:11:22,500 --> 00:11:30,500
The Cubs have said as soon as they arrived yesterday it would be Bill Hands if he can pitch, but Hands has a blister problem.
130
00:11:30,500 --> 00:11:33,500
So Leo says it'll be Hands or somebody. He's not sure.
131
00:11:33,500 --> 00:11:39,500
Walter Austin, meanwhile, is not sure since Bill Singer is not going to pitch Friday against the Giants.
132
00:11:39,500 --> 00:11:42,500
The pitch to Davis High, ball one.
133
00:11:42,500 --> 00:11:46,500
Now it looks like Osteen will pitch Friday night against the Giants.
134
00:11:46,500 --> 00:11:52,500
So then who pitches tomorrow night against the Cubs? That will depend, apparently, on what happens in this double header.
135
00:11:52,500 --> 00:11:59,500
The pitch fouled away and how much of a workout the boys in the bullpen get, especially a long man like a Joe Mueller.
136
00:11:59,500 --> 00:12:05,500
So we're really not sure of the pitches tomorrow night. We just have to wait and see.
137
00:12:05,500 --> 00:12:08,500
One and one to count to Willie Davis.
138
00:12:08,500 --> 00:12:14,500
Davis hitting.350 is 14 points back of Joe Torey.
139
00:12:14,500 --> 00:12:20,500
Boy has he been consistent. He's hit in 52 of the last 60.
140
00:12:20,500 --> 00:12:24,500
He takes low, and over that span that's a.356 average.
141
00:12:24,500 --> 00:12:27,500
So Willie Davis playing great ball.
142
00:12:27,500 --> 00:12:33,500
Pappas ready, and here he comes to one, and it's popped in the air behind the plate.
143
00:12:33,500 --> 00:12:36,500
Canazaro coming back to the base of the screen.
144
00:12:36,500 --> 00:12:39,500
It's doubtful, and it's on the other side of the screen.
145
00:12:39,500 --> 00:12:43,500
Hits the dugout roof and goes back into the crowd.
146
00:12:43,500 --> 00:12:47,500
Two and two. The count to Willie Davis.
147
00:12:47,500 --> 00:12:51,500
First inning of a Twilight Night double header.
148
00:12:51,500 --> 00:12:55,500
The Cubs have an edge on the Dodgers. They've got a little bit of a lead.
149
00:12:55,500 --> 00:12:58,500
The Cubs have an edge on the Dodgers. They've won five of nine.
150
00:12:58,500 --> 00:13:01,500
These two clubs were as even as you could be last year.
151
00:13:01,500 --> 00:13:04,500
They split the 12 and they split six in each part.
152
00:13:04,500 --> 00:13:11,500
They've already split six at Wrigley, and we'll see how they finish out at Dodger Stadium with two tonight and tomorrow.
153
00:13:13,500 --> 00:13:17,500
Pappas, arms dangling, looks in to get a sign, Milt ready.
154
00:13:17,500 --> 00:13:20,500
The two-two pitch to Davis is lifted to straightaway center field.
155
00:13:20,500 --> 00:13:25,500
Brock Davis went back, now comes up a half a dozen steps, and makes the catch for the out.
156
00:13:25,500 --> 00:13:29,500
So the Dodgers have gone in order, and at the end of an inning, no score.
157
00:13:29,500 --> 00:13:33,500
Farmer John is mighty happy to share in bringing you these Dodger broadcasts,
158
00:13:33,500 --> 00:13:37,500
and he wants to thank his loyal friends for reaching for his Farmer John all meat wieners,
159
00:13:37,500 --> 00:13:40,500
just as fast as he puts them in your store.
160
00:13:40,500 --> 00:13:45,500
It seems that the word's getting around that no other wieners can match Farmer John.
161
00:13:45,500 --> 00:13:49,500
Farmer John sees to this by putting a little more care and cost into making them.
162
00:13:49,500 --> 00:13:55,500
He uses only fresh Eastern corn-fed pork and fresh, lean, juicy, homegrown beef,
163
00:13:55,500 --> 00:14:00,500
and he seasons his wieners with expensive natural herbs and spices imported from abroad.
164
00:14:00,500 --> 00:14:05,500
Then Farmer John smokes his wieners over real smoke from native Western wood
165
00:14:05,500 --> 00:14:08,500
to give them a wonderful Western flavor all their own.
166
00:14:08,500 --> 00:14:14,500
If you're still buying some other kind of wieners, all Farmer John asks is that you give his a try and compare.
167
00:14:14,500 --> 00:14:17,500
Look for Farmer John wieners in the delicatessen section of your market,
168
00:14:17,500 --> 00:14:23,500
or pamper your youngsters and get them the extra-long Farmer John wieners we call Dodger Dogs.
169
00:14:23,500 --> 00:14:28,500
Both won gold medals at the California State Fair.
170
00:14:28,500 --> 00:14:30,500
At the end of an inning, no score.
171
00:14:30,500 --> 00:14:32,500
The first inning of a Twilight Night doubleheader,
172
00:14:32,500 --> 00:14:37,500
the Cubs will have Ron Santo, Cleo James, and Brock Davis in that order,
173
00:14:37,500 --> 00:14:44,500
and left-hander Al Downing spins them down, each side going out in order in the first inning,
174
00:14:44,500 --> 00:14:47,500
and Santo will start it off.
175
00:14:47,500 --> 00:14:52,500
In looking at the Cubs' record, you find they start the night nine games back of the Pirates,
176
00:14:52,500 --> 00:14:58,500
and in ten games with Pittsburgh, they are 500. They've split the ten.
177
00:14:58,500 --> 00:15:04,500
However, there's one glaring stat about the Cubs and why they are so far back.
178
00:15:04,500 --> 00:15:07,500
They can't beat the Giants at all.
179
00:15:07,500 --> 00:15:09,500
The Giants have beaten the Cubs eight out of nine.
180
00:15:09,500 --> 00:15:14,500
They won all six at Candlestick, and the Giants have won two out of three at Wrigley Field.
181
00:15:14,500 --> 00:15:19,500
Downing Reddy and the pitch to Santo, low and inside, ball one, one and oh.
182
00:15:19,500 --> 00:15:26,500
So the Cubs are nine back, but they are very close to moving in on the Mets who are going backwards.
183
00:15:26,500 --> 00:15:29,500
Mets have lost. They lost today, seven out of eight.
184
00:15:29,500 --> 00:15:34,500
The one-oh pitch in first right, in the count, one and one to Santo.
185
00:15:34,500 --> 00:15:41,500
Ron, the veteran third baseman, hitting 297, 15 home runs, 60 RBIs.
186
00:15:41,500 --> 00:15:44,500
Downing comes to him with a fastball that runs away.
187
00:15:44,500 --> 00:15:46,500
In the count, ball two, strike one.
188
00:15:46,500 --> 00:15:48,500
Second inning, no score.
189
00:15:48,500 --> 00:15:51,500
So if you're just coming home from work, take your time.
190
00:15:51,500 --> 00:15:53,500
We've got plenty of baseball for you.
191
00:15:53,500 --> 00:15:59,500
The two-one pitch to Santo, palm ball that ran away, ball three, three and one.
192
00:15:59,500 --> 00:16:08,500
Three and one to Ron Santo.
193
00:16:08,500 --> 00:16:15,500
Downing into the windup, and the three-one pitch, fastball is low, ball four.
194
00:16:15,500 --> 00:16:20,500
So Al Downing walks somebody, and Cleo James coming up.
195
00:16:20,500 --> 00:16:28,500
Downing, you remember, had a one-to-nothing shutout against the San Diego Padres.
196
00:16:28,500 --> 00:16:30,500
He had to outpitch Dave Robertson just here.
197
00:16:30,500 --> 00:16:33,500
He did not walk a batter there, and prior to that start,
198
00:16:33,500 --> 00:16:37,500
in six innings against the Cubs in Wrigley Field, he did not walk a batter.
199
00:16:37,500 --> 00:16:39,500
So Downing finally lets one get away.
200
00:16:39,500 --> 00:16:43,500
He walks Santo, and here is Cleo James.
201
00:16:43,500 --> 00:16:47,500
Cleo at one time with the Dodgers.
202
00:16:47,500 --> 00:16:50,500
He raised in Palm Springs, right-hand batter.
203
00:16:50,500 --> 00:16:54,500
He was hitting 362 at Tacoma. He was tearing up the Coast League.
204
00:16:54,500 --> 00:16:59,500
He takes low, ball one, one and oh.
205
00:16:59,500 --> 00:17:05,500
James is 30 years old, right-handed all the way, 5'10", 175 pounders.
206
00:17:05,500 --> 00:17:08,500
Played a lot of center field for the Cubs last year.
207
00:17:08,500 --> 00:17:11,500
In 100 games, he hit 210.
208
00:17:11,500 --> 00:17:14,500
Downing's one-oh pitch to Cleo, taking high.
209
00:17:14,500 --> 00:17:19,500
So Al Downing walks Santo, and he's behind now to Cleo James.
210
00:17:19,500 --> 00:17:26,500
Two balls, no strikes.
211
00:17:26,500 --> 00:17:29,500
Juan Pizarro, a teammate of Cleo's at Tacoma,
212
00:17:29,500 --> 00:17:32,500
will pitch the second game against the Dodgers to Oyl Alexander.
213
00:17:32,500 --> 00:17:36,500
Now the two-oh pitch. Fastball popped in the air on the right side.
214
00:17:36,500 --> 00:17:41,500
Parker fighting the glare. Lafever comes over, but West has it now and makes the catch.
215
00:17:41,500 --> 00:17:43,500
So James pops up, one away.
216
00:17:43,500 --> 00:17:53,500
Allowing up Brock Davis, a Los Angeles boy playing center field.
217
00:17:53,500 --> 00:18:07,500
Brock Davis hitting 323 with 15 runs batted in.
218
00:18:07,500 --> 00:18:12,500
Al Downing, left foot on the rubber, looks in to get a sign.
219
00:18:12,500 --> 00:18:18,500
Al, 10-4 with the league, decides to go to first base, driving Santo back.
220
00:18:18,500 --> 00:18:21,500
The leading pitcher in the National League is Doc Ellis.
221
00:18:21,500 --> 00:18:26,500
He was 6-0 in the month of June, and he won last night to give him a 14-3 record.
222
00:18:26,500 --> 00:18:29,500
The pitch to Davis is low.
223
00:18:29,500 --> 00:18:34,500
He has 12 straight without a defeat and the amazing percentage of 8-24.
224
00:18:34,500 --> 00:18:39,500
Larry Durker, who won today, is now 12-4.
225
00:18:39,500 --> 00:18:42,500
Don Gullett with the Reds is 9-2.
226
00:18:42,500 --> 00:18:45,500
The pitch is one hopper banged right by Wills.
227
00:18:45,500 --> 00:18:49,500
He should have had it, but he was handcuffed, and it goes through in the left center.
228
00:18:49,500 --> 00:18:54,500
Last night Wills was unable to handle the ball, and it just about meant the ball game.
229
00:18:54,500 --> 00:18:59,500
That was a line drive that skidded about just at the left of his hip.
230
00:18:59,500 --> 00:19:03,500
And you figure he would at least knock it down, but it went right on through,
231
00:19:03,500 --> 00:19:06,500
and since he didn't touch it, the score figures he was completely fooled by it.
232
00:19:06,500 --> 00:19:09,500
And it's a base hit for Brock Davis.
233
00:19:09,500 --> 00:19:21,500
Dosanto at second, Davis at first, and Ernie Banks the batter.
234
00:19:21,500 --> 00:19:28,500
Ernie Banks, hitting 143, he has a half a dozen hits, spelling Joe Pepitono as a bad ankle.
235
00:19:28,500 --> 00:19:30,500
Downing delivers a strike.
236
00:19:30,500 --> 00:19:36,500
Pep will no doubt see action in the second game if he possibly can
237
00:19:36,500 --> 00:19:40,500
against right-handed Doyle Alexander, Joe, of course, a left-handed batter.
238
00:19:40,500 --> 00:19:42,500
So Banks is in there playing his first game.
239
00:19:42,500 --> 00:19:46,500
0-1 the count, 2-on, 1-out, second inning no score.
240
00:19:46,500 --> 00:20:01,500
Downing delivers, fastball away.
241
00:20:01,500 --> 00:20:03,500
Al Benz of the Ways reading Sims.
242
00:20:03,500 --> 00:20:07,500
Now he straightens up and the 1-1 pitch to Ernie Banks.
243
00:20:07,500 --> 00:20:11,500
Downing's fastball is filed away in the count 1 and 2.
244
00:20:11,500 --> 00:20:14,500
Downing in his last seven ball games has boarded on the brilliant
245
00:20:14,500 --> 00:20:19,500
earned run average of less than two in his last seven games.
246
00:20:19,500 --> 00:20:28,500
In fact, in his last seven games, he has averaged a little more than two walks a game.
247
00:20:28,500 --> 00:20:35,500
Al Downing, who came to the Dodgers in the deal with an outfielder, Andy Cusco, to Milwaukee.
248
00:20:35,500 --> 00:20:39,500
And boy, Downing just gets larger and larger as the season progresses.
249
00:20:39,500 --> 00:20:46,500
The 1-2 pitch to Banks swung on in this strike three.
250
00:20:46,500 --> 00:20:55,500
Two down and the catcher, Chris Cannazero, coming up.
251
00:20:55,500 --> 00:20:58,500
Chris Cannazero, right-hand hitting catcher.
252
00:20:58,500 --> 00:21:04,500
Cannazero hitting 2-18 as a Cubs.
253
00:21:04,500 --> 00:21:11,500
Overall average, 2-0-7.
254
00:21:11,500 --> 00:21:14,500
Two on, two out. Second inning, no score.
255
00:21:14,500 --> 00:21:18,500
Downing almost in a crouch as he peers in to read Sims.
256
00:21:18,500 --> 00:21:20,500
Now Al straightens up and the left-hander delivers high.
257
00:21:20,500 --> 00:21:22,500
Ball one, 1-0.
258
00:21:22,500 --> 00:21:25,500
Ed Soudal to play down-pire. Mel Steiner at first.
259
00:21:25,500 --> 00:21:29,500
Bob Engel at second. Stan Landis at third.
260
00:21:29,500 --> 00:21:32,500
Joey Malfatano coaching at first.
261
00:21:32,500 --> 00:21:37,500
Peanuts Lowry coaching at third.
262
00:21:37,500 --> 00:21:39,500
The 1-0 pitch to Cannazero.
263
00:21:39,500 --> 00:21:42,500
Downing deals. Fastball hit by the mound down to LaFever,
264
00:21:42,500 --> 00:21:45,500
who shovels quickly to Wills for a force on the charging Davis.
265
00:21:45,500 --> 00:21:47,500
And the inning is over.
266
00:21:47,500 --> 00:21:54,500
No runs are hit. Two left. And at the end of an inning and a half, no score.
267
00:21:54,500 --> 00:22:02,500
The good life. That's still the way of life in a great hotel.
268
00:22:02,500 --> 00:22:06,500
A superbly trained staff that respects your taste and brings you the best.
269
00:22:06,500 --> 00:22:09,500
Part of the best are Canada Dry Mixers.
270
00:22:09,500 --> 00:22:28,500
The better taste of Canada Dry Club Soda, Tonic Water, Bitter Lemon, and Ginger Ale.
271
00:22:28,500 --> 00:22:32,500
Better Mixers Mix Better. At Canada Dry we mix better mixers.
272
00:22:32,500 --> 00:22:40,500
Better mixers mix better Canada Dry Canada Dry.
273
00:22:40,500 --> 00:22:50,500
Make better mixers Canada Dry.
274
00:22:50,500 --> 00:22:52,500
Bottom of the second inning, no score.
275
00:22:52,500 --> 00:22:55,500
Downing getting out of a little jam in the top half.
276
00:22:55,500 --> 00:23:05,500
One of the Dodgers will have Richie Allen, Wes Parker, and Duke Sims against Mill Pappas.
277
00:23:05,500 --> 00:23:09,500
Richie Allen has his average up to 268.
278
00:23:09,500 --> 00:23:13,500
That would be just about the highest since he has been hitting at the start of the year.
279
00:23:13,500 --> 00:23:15,500
Remember he got off to a very poor start.
280
00:23:15,500 --> 00:23:20,500
Then he hung around the 250 plateau for quite some time, got up to 260,
281
00:23:20,500 --> 00:23:30,500
then dropped back down again around 255, and now very close to 270, 268, 11 home runs, 51 runs batted in.
282
00:23:30,500 --> 00:23:34,500
Of course Richie is a fellow with a lifetime batting average of 297,
283
00:23:34,500 --> 00:23:38,500
and Walter Alston has just said that he'll be patient because he knows he can do it.
284
00:23:38,500 --> 00:23:41,500
Well he's starting to build it. He takes low ball one, one and oh.
285
00:23:41,500 --> 00:23:44,500
Richie averages close to 25 home runs a year,
286
00:23:44,500 --> 00:23:51,500
although that should change a little bit now that he's playing at Dodger Stadium instead of County Mac.
287
00:23:51,500 --> 00:24:01,500
One and oh to count, Pappas comes back to the plate and bounces short hop by count of zero, ball two.
288
00:24:01,500 --> 00:24:07,500
Richie Allen has hit safely in 17 of the past 21 games, so he's been on a tear.
289
00:24:07,500 --> 00:24:12,500
He's hit 314 over that span, the two old pits, low ball three.
290
00:24:12,500 --> 00:24:19,500
And in the last 21 games, Allen has driven in 16 runs.
291
00:24:19,500 --> 00:24:23,500
Richie meanwhile has done very well at third base.
292
00:24:23,500 --> 00:24:27,500
Here's the three old pitch on the way, a fastball for strike three and one.
293
00:24:27,500 --> 00:24:34,500
You won't get Rich waiting for walks from Milt Pappas, that's for sure.
294
00:24:34,500 --> 00:24:40,500
Milt Ruddy and a three-one pitch. Here's a fastball inside, and that'll do it for Allen.
295
00:24:40,500 --> 00:24:44,500
Richie is more disgusted looking I think than any other hitter in the National League.
296
00:24:44,500 --> 00:24:48,500
When he gets a walk, it's almost an affront to his hitting.
297
00:24:48,500 --> 00:24:59,500
He hates to walk. He slowly goes down to first base, and the batter will be Wes Parker.
298
00:24:59,500 --> 00:25:03,500
Parker with a seven-game hitting streak.
299
00:25:03,500 --> 00:25:06,500
Of course, he hasn't had a chance to pick up many ribbies since Allen has been hot.
300
00:25:06,500 --> 00:25:10,500
He's been cleaning his place. Wes, it's one back off Pappas' glove.
301
00:25:10,500 --> 00:25:12,500
He picks it up and the play has to go to first.
302
00:25:12,500 --> 00:25:15,500
If he handles it cleanly, he might add a double play.
303
00:25:15,500 --> 00:25:25,500
Instead of one three play to get Allen to second base, and with one out, Duke Sims coming up.
304
00:25:25,500 --> 00:25:32,500
Duke Sims hitting 268. He enjoyed a fine series at Candlestick.
305
00:25:32,500 --> 00:25:44,500
Duke with two home runs, 14 runs batted in.
306
00:25:44,500 --> 00:25:47,500
Pappas bends to the way, thinking over his pitches.
307
00:25:47,500 --> 00:25:49,500
Head down as he stares at the dirt.
308
00:25:49,500 --> 00:25:54,500
Remind you a little bit of the way Larry Jackson pitched for many years with the Cardinals, Fills, and Cubs.
309
00:25:54,500 --> 00:25:57,500
Jackson would stand on the mound and look like he was going to be ill.
310
00:25:57,500 --> 00:26:01,500
A change to Sims is high, ball one.
311
00:26:01,500 --> 00:26:03,500
Larry's chin would be on his chest.
312
00:26:03,500 --> 00:26:08,500
It looked like he just couldn't possibly make another pitch, but he was deep in concentration.
313
00:26:08,500 --> 00:26:10,500
Pappas doing the same thing.
314
00:26:10,500 --> 00:26:11,500
One ball and no strikes.
315
00:26:11,500 --> 00:26:14,500
The Duke Sims trying to pick up Richie Allen.
316
00:26:14,500 --> 00:26:16,500
One out, second inning, no score.
317
00:26:16,500 --> 00:26:20,500
Note ready and here he comes and it's fouled away.
318
00:26:20,500 --> 00:26:24,500
One and one.
319
00:26:24,500 --> 00:26:30,500
Billy Williams, the fine left fielder for the Cubs who has a nine game hitting streak, is resting the first game.
320
00:26:30,500 --> 00:26:33,500
Remember when Williams never missed a game?
321
00:26:33,500 --> 00:26:36,500
Well, he has missed none so far.
322
00:26:36,500 --> 00:26:39,500
Eighty-one games he has played in eighty of them.
323
00:26:39,500 --> 00:26:47,500
But he's going to rest his first one against Downing and he'll be back in there against Doyle Alexander.
324
00:26:47,500 --> 00:26:50,500
Pappas reading signs, Allen off the bag.
325
00:26:50,500 --> 00:26:52,500
Milled ready and delivers and Sims takes high and away.
326
00:26:52,500 --> 00:26:56,500
Ball two, two and one.
327
00:26:56,500 --> 00:27:13,500
Pappas came to Baltimore with half a season, actually only three games and eleven innings in the minors.
328
00:27:13,500 --> 00:27:16,500
The pitch to Sims is popped in the air.
329
00:27:16,500 --> 00:27:21,500
Banks calls in front of Becker, comes in on the grass and handles it for the second out.
330
00:27:21,500 --> 00:27:23,500
Let's pause for station identification.
331
00:27:23,500 --> 00:27:39,500
This is the Los Angeles Dodgers radio network.
332
00:27:39,500 --> 00:27:45,500
Jimmy Lefebvre checks in with two out, Richie Allen at second base, no score in the ballgame.
333
00:27:45,500 --> 00:27:50,500
Lefebvre hitting 275, not too much to choose from from either side of the plate.
334
00:27:50,500 --> 00:27:56,500
Hitting 279 left-handed, 268 right-handed, takes outside ball one.
335
00:27:56,500 --> 00:28:01,500
There's a little difference in power, but he's had twice as many at-batch as left-handed batters.
336
00:28:01,500 --> 00:28:07,500
He has eight home runs, five of them coming this way against right-handers.
337
00:28:07,500 --> 00:28:09,500
One and out of Jim Lefebvre.
338
00:28:09,500 --> 00:28:11,500
On deck, Bill Buckner.
339
00:28:11,500 --> 00:28:13,500
The next one is low, ball two, two and all.
340
00:28:13,500 --> 00:28:20,500
Don Kessinger doing a pretty good job of bird-dogging Richie Allen to cut down his lead.
341
00:28:20,500 --> 00:28:27,500
South Hill around to right, and Banks deep and Becker out on the rim on the edge of the grass.
342
00:28:27,500 --> 00:28:29,500
So playing Lefebvre to pull.
343
00:28:29,500 --> 00:28:33,500
Tap is ready, here he comes, and it's taken for a strike at the knees.
344
00:28:33,500 --> 00:28:42,500
Outside corner, two and one.
345
00:28:42,500 --> 00:28:50,500
Rodgers and Cubs in their 10th meeting of the year, 10 of the 12 scheduled, and the first of two tonight.
346
00:28:50,500 --> 00:28:51,500
Now the 2-1 pitch.
347
00:28:51,500 --> 00:28:53,500
Lefebvre swings and doesn't get it.
348
00:28:53,500 --> 00:28:58,500
Quick slider on the hands and the count two and two.
349
00:28:58,500 --> 00:29:03,500
Eddie Soudal wants to examine the ball, so time out for the moment.
350
00:29:03,500 --> 00:29:07,500
Ed checking it very carefully and flips it to Pappas.
351
00:29:07,500 --> 00:29:10,500
Two and two, the count to Jim Lefebvre.
352
00:29:10,500 --> 00:29:13,500
Richie Allen who walked at second base with two out.
353
00:29:13,500 --> 00:29:15,500
Giants lost today in case you missed it.
354
00:29:15,500 --> 00:29:17,500
Lost hardly tells the story.
355
00:29:17,500 --> 00:29:21,500
The Astros beat them 18 to four.
356
00:29:21,500 --> 00:29:22,500
The 2-2 pitch.
357
00:29:22,500 --> 00:29:27,500
Lefebvre pokes his foul off third trying to go with the pitch and hit it upstairs.
358
00:29:27,500 --> 00:29:30,500
So it's still two and two.
359
00:29:30,500 --> 00:29:32,500
The Giants were hit by lightning.
360
00:29:32,500 --> 00:29:39,500
The Dodgers had a 10-run inning against them, and Houston had a 10-run fourth inning today.
361
00:29:39,500 --> 00:29:46,500
Two and two, the count to Jim Lefebvre.
362
00:29:46,500 --> 00:29:47,500
Now the pitch to Jimmy.
363
00:29:47,500 --> 00:29:51,500
Strike three, a little slider got the inside corner and down he goes.
364
00:29:51,500 --> 00:29:52,500
No runs, no hits.
365
00:29:52,500 --> 00:29:53,500
The man left at second base.
366
00:29:53,500 --> 00:29:55,500
At the end of two, no score.
367
00:29:55,500 --> 00:30:02,500
Here's how to get a brand new tire for 76 cents and not just any tire, one that comes with a 30,000 mile treadwear guarantee.
368
00:30:02,500 --> 00:30:06,500
First of all, drive into your participating Union 76 service station.
369
00:30:06,500 --> 00:30:09,500
Then buy three Union 76 four-star tires.
370
00:30:09,500 --> 00:30:17,500
Your Union 76 neither will sell you the fourth tire for just 76 cents plus federal excise tax of $2.37 to $3.27.
371
00:30:17,500 --> 00:30:21,500
Now, maybe you don't think of a service station as the right place to buy tires.
372
00:30:21,500 --> 00:30:24,500
Well, Union 76 is out to change your mind about that.
373
00:30:24,500 --> 00:30:26,500
The four-star is a real rugged tire.
374
00:30:26,500 --> 00:30:30,500
That's why Union 76 can give the four-star one of the best tire guarantees you can get.
375
00:30:30,500 --> 00:30:34,500
They guarantee the treadwear for 30,000 miles on your family car.
376
00:30:34,500 --> 00:30:46,500
In case the tread on your four-star wears out before 30,000 miles, your Union dealer will replace the tire and charge you only that portion of the then current exchange prices plus federal excise tax, which represents mileage driven.
377
00:30:46,500 --> 00:30:50,500
So see your Union 76 dealer now for the great deal on a set of four-star tires.
378
00:30:50,500 --> 00:30:56,500
You'll find out why he's the most underestimated tire dealer in America, and you'll find that the spirit of 76 lives in Union Oil.
379
00:30:56,500 --> 00:30:57,500
Two innings, no score.
380
00:30:57,500 --> 00:30:59,500
In fact, we've only had one hit in the ballgame.
381
00:30:59,500 --> 00:31:02,500
That was a single by Brock Davis.
382
00:31:02,500 --> 00:31:06,500
Now as we go to the third, Al Downing and Mill Papas battling it out.
383
00:31:06,500 --> 00:31:08,500
And for more play by play, here's Gary Doggett.
384
00:31:08,500 --> 00:31:10,500
All right, Vinnie, Papas starts it off.
385
00:31:10,500 --> 00:31:11,500
He's a pretty good hitting pitcher.
386
00:31:11,500 --> 00:31:15,500
He has six hits in 40 at-batch this year.
387
00:31:15,500 --> 00:31:17,500
And Papas will be followed by Kessinger.
388
00:31:17,500 --> 00:31:18,500
No score.
389
00:31:18,500 --> 00:31:23,500
Al Downing all set to go.
390
00:31:23,500 --> 00:31:27,500
Papas right-hander.
391
00:31:27,500 --> 00:31:33,500
Bright sunshine and only the left field area now getting the shadows.
392
00:31:33,500 --> 00:31:36,500
Willie Crawford still standing in the sun.
393
00:31:36,500 --> 00:31:41,500
Here's Downing's windup in the pitch on the way as a fastball for a strike, 0-1.
394
00:31:41,500 --> 00:31:43,500
Dodgers and the Cubs, a doubleheader.
395
00:31:43,500 --> 00:31:46,500
They've each played two doubleheaders this year.
396
00:31:46,500 --> 00:31:47,500
Cubs have won one and lost one.
397
00:31:47,500 --> 00:31:52,500
The Dodgers have won one and split one.
398
00:31:52,500 --> 00:31:53,500
Going to the high fly ball defender.
399
00:31:53,500 --> 00:31:54,500
Willie Davis right there.
400
00:31:54,500 --> 00:31:56,500
Comes in a step.
401
00:31:56,500 --> 00:31:57,500
Waits, makes the catch for the out.
402
00:31:57,500 --> 00:32:01,500
Willie was playing him almost perfectly then for that high fly ball.
403
00:32:01,500 --> 00:32:03,500
One down, Don Kessinger at bat.
404
00:32:03,500 --> 00:32:06,500
Slide to right field his first time up.
405
00:32:06,500 --> 00:32:08,500
Downing in the first game against Papas.
406
00:32:08,500 --> 00:32:14,500
Second game, Pizarro and Alexander.
407
00:32:14,500 --> 00:32:17,500
Kessinger, switch hitter, hitting from the right side.
408
00:32:17,500 --> 00:32:28,500
Downs batting average is 289, two home runs and 22 runs batted in.
409
00:32:28,500 --> 00:32:33,500
Empire Soudal rubs up the ball, gives it back to Downing.
410
00:32:33,500 --> 00:32:35,500
Kessinger hitting better from the right side than the left side.
411
00:32:35,500 --> 00:32:42,500
He's hitting 313 at the right hand hitter.
412
00:32:42,500 --> 00:32:46,500
Lowry coaching at third and Joe Amalpatano in the first base line.
413
00:32:46,500 --> 00:32:49,500
One man out, now the wind up and here's the pitch.
414
00:32:49,500 --> 00:32:56,500
Foul back to the screen, strike one.
415
00:32:56,500 --> 00:32:58,500
Still plenty of time to come out and see a lot of baseball here this evening.
416
00:32:58,500 --> 00:33:02,500
First game of the doubleheader and we're only in the third inning now.
417
00:33:02,500 --> 00:33:06,500
We've got all of this one and the second game to go.
418
00:33:06,500 --> 00:33:13,500
The Dodgers began this game three games back as the Giants lost this afternoon.
419
00:33:13,500 --> 00:33:16,500
The Giants and coming on fast now right behind.
420
00:33:16,500 --> 00:33:18,500
Here's the wind up and the pitch.
421
00:33:18,500 --> 00:33:21,500
A pie for a ball, one and one.
422
00:33:21,500 --> 00:33:27,500
One ball, one strike.
423
00:33:27,500 --> 00:33:30,500
Al Downing checking signs again, goes into the wind up and delivers.
424
00:33:30,500 --> 00:33:33,500
Fastball to slow ball two, two and one.
425
00:33:33,500 --> 00:33:40,500
Al with a fine record this year, 10 wins and four losses and an earned run average of 2.28.
426
00:33:40,500 --> 00:33:44,500
That certainly qualifies the comeback player of the year with that record.
427
00:33:44,500 --> 00:33:46,500
Next pitch is outside, ball three.
428
00:33:46,500 --> 00:33:49,500
Fastball failed, three and one.
429
00:33:49,500 --> 00:33:55,500
Downing beat the Cubs in Chicago, six to four.
430
00:33:55,500 --> 00:33:58,500
This is his third start against him, he had one no decision.
431
00:33:58,500 --> 00:34:00,500
Three and one.
432
00:34:00,500 --> 00:34:03,500
Al ready, delivers and it's strike two.
433
00:34:03,500 --> 00:34:08,500
Three and two now to Kessinger.
434
00:34:08,500 --> 00:34:14,500
Tonight and tomorrow night our last visit with the Cubs this year will be all through with Chicago.
435
00:34:14,500 --> 00:34:16,500
Rather strange before the all-star break.
436
00:34:16,500 --> 00:34:19,500
Curve, strike three, calls Kessinger-Newark.
437
00:34:19,500 --> 00:34:26,500
So he struck him out with a curveball and that's strike out number two for Al Downing.
438
00:34:26,500 --> 00:34:31,500
Here's Glenn Beckert at bat, slide to right field his first time up.
439
00:34:31,500 --> 00:34:38,500
Beckert hitting 3.48, has one home run and 22 runs batted in.
440
00:34:38,500 --> 00:34:45,500
The Cubs move on to San Diego from Los Angeles and they will play two doubleheaders in three days there.
441
00:34:45,500 --> 00:34:47,500
Pitch comes high for a ball, one ball and no strikes.
442
00:34:47,500 --> 00:34:51,500
So the Cubs are going to be a little short on pitching here for the next few days.
443
00:34:51,500 --> 00:34:55,500
Doubleheader tonight and a doubleheader Friday and a doubleheader again on Sunday.
444
00:34:55,500 --> 00:34:57,500
One ball, no strikes.
445
00:34:57,500 --> 00:35:00,500
Curveball, tap foul off third base.
446
00:35:00,500 --> 00:35:05,500
Rolls to the Dodger dugout and the count is one ball, one strike to Beckert.
447
00:35:05,500 --> 00:35:07,500
Cubs won last night 3-1.
448
00:35:07,500 --> 00:35:14,500
They now lead the Dodgers here in Dodger Stadium two games to one.
449
00:35:14,500 --> 00:35:17,500
Beckert, right hand batter, number 18.
450
00:35:17,500 --> 00:35:19,500
1-1 count, pitch on the way.
451
00:35:19,500 --> 00:35:21,500
Bounce over the mound in front of second base.
452
00:35:21,500 --> 00:35:25,500
Wills a nice big hop, flip across and time and the inning is over.
453
00:35:25,500 --> 00:35:27,500
So Beckert grounds out short to first.
454
00:35:27,500 --> 00:35:28,500
That's all for the Cubs.
455
00:35:28,500 --> 00:35:31,500
And the score at the end of two and a half minutes to play,
456
00:35:31,500 --> 00:35:33,500
Dodgers nothing and the Cubs nothing.
457
00:35:33,500 --> 00:35:37,500
Making out a baseball lineup is easy compared to figuring out the weekly shopping list.
458
00:35:37,500 --> 00:35:39,500
What meats to serve for supper?
459
00:35:39,500 --> 00:35:40,500
That's the big question.
460
00:35:40,500 --> 00:35:43,500
One meat some homemakers tend to overlook is sausage.
461
00:35:43,500 --> 00:35:46,500
Oh sure, they serve Parmesan sausage for breakfast,
462
00:35:46,500 --> 00:35:50,500
but you know it's also a hearty, wholesome main meal meat too.
463
00:35:50,500 --> 00:35:54,500
Parmesan makes his sausage with all the best meat, not just the trimmings.
464
00:35:54,500 --> 00:35:57,500
So it's extra nourishing and satisfying.
465
00:35:57,500 --> 00:35:59,500
He uses only finest eastern corn-fed pork,
466
00:35:59,500 --> 00:36:03,500
and it's fresher than fresh because it's dressed fresh right here in the West.
467
00:36:03,500 --> 00:36:07,500
Then Parmesan seasons the sausage to an old-time Western recipe
468
00:36:07,500 --> 00:36:11,500
to give a wonderful Western flavor to every lean, luscious morsel.
469
00:36:11,500 --> 00:36:14,500
And when you compare Parmesan sausage with other meats,
470
00:36:14,500 --> 00:36:16,500
you'll discover how inexpensive it is.
471
00:36:16,500 --> 00:36:19,500
Yes, Parmesan sausage has everything going for it,
472
00:36:19,500 --> 00:36:21,500
whether you serve it for breakfast or supper.
473
00:36:21,500 --> 00:36:24,500
Parmesan sausage, gold medal winner at the California State Fair.
474
00:36:24,500 --> 00:36:29,500
And remember, it's the easternmost in quality and the westernmost in flavors.
475
00:36:29,500 --> 00:36:31,500
Parmesan.
476
00:36:32,500 --> 00:36:35,500
Bill Pappas concluding his warm-up talk with the Dodgers.
477
00:36:35,500 --> 00:36:39,500
Come to bat now with Buckner, Downing, and Wills to face the veteran right-hander.
478
00:36:39,500 --> 00:36:41,500
Buckner hitting 287.
479
00:36:41,500 --> 00:36:44,500
He had a hot week last week and he's tailed off a little bit,
480
00:36:44,500 --> 00:36:47,500
so Billy's trying to get it going again.
481
00:36:47,500 --> 00:36:52,500
Buckner playing right field, three home runs, 22 runs batted in.
482
00:36:52,500 --> 00:36:54,500
So Billy is in now.
483
00:36:54,500 --> 00:36:56,500
They play him a little bit to the right in the outfield.
484
00:36:56,500 --> 00:36:59,500
Fanto is up at third, Banks not too deep at first.
485
00:36:59,500 --> 00:37:00,500
Pappas ready to pitch.
486
00:37:00,500 --> 00:37:02,500
Swung on a drive in the right field, well hit.
487
00:37:02,500 --> 00:37:04,500
Hickman going over and makes the catch for the out.
488
00:37:04,500 --> 00:37:07,500
So a line drive out by Buckner to right field.
489
00:37:07,500 --> 00:37:10,500
One away, the batter will be Downing.
490
00:37:10,500 --> 00:37:14,500
Downing, a good-hitting pitcher, has an average of 217.
491
00:37:14,500 --> 00:37:17,500
He has 10 hits and four runs batted in.
492
00:37:17,500 --> 00:37:20,500
Ten to serve is this, has to go on for doubles.
493
00:37:20,500 --> 00:37:27,500
Downing coming on to face Pappas.
494
00:37:27,500 --> 00:37:30,500
First game of the doubleheader here at Dodger Stadium.
495
00:37:30,500 --> 00:37:35,500
Downing waiting now as the pitch comes in for a strike.
496
00:37:35,500 --> 00:37:38,500
No, Pappas works in a hurry.
497
00:37:38,500 --> 00:37:41,500
Big right-hander checking signs of catcher Chris Cannadaro.
498
00:37:41,500 --> 00:37:43,500
0-1 the count.
499
00:37:43,500 --> 00:37:48,500
Now the pitch on the way, off-speed low for ball on the count 1-1.
500
00:37:48,500 --> 00:37:52,500
Sandoval at third, Kessinger at short, Becker at second, Banks at first.
501
00:37:52,500 --> 00:37:57,500
James in left, Davis in center, and Hickman is in right for Chicago.
502
00:37:57,500 --> 00:38:00,500
Cannadaro catching and Pappas is the pitcher.
503
00:38:00,500 --> 00:38:03,500
1-1 count, Downing waiting again.
504
00:38:03,500 --> 00:38:05,500
Swung in a foul, that bounced up and hit Al,
505
00:38:05,500 --> 00:38:08,500
and I think it hit him on the side of the face.
506
00:38:08,500 --> 00:38:11,500
Hit him on the right ear, around the neck perhaps.
507
00:38:11,500 --> 00:38:14,500
So Al walks out of there,
508
00:38:14,500 --> 00:38:17,500
and Eddie Soudal, the play-dumper, comes over to see about him,
509
00:38:17,500 --> 00:38:19,500
and he got hit with his foul ball that hit the ground,
510
00:38:19,500 --> 00:38:21,500
and bounced back up and hit him in the ear.
511
00:38:21,500 --> 00:38:22,500
I think he's all right.
512
00:38:22,500 --> 00:38:27,500
Danny Ozark comes down, and also trainer Bill Bueller coming out to check with him.
513
00:38:27,500 --> 00:38:31,500
Wow, that one hit him right around the ear on the right side.
514
00:38:31,500 --> 00:38:34,500
He wears an ear flap on the left side.
515
00:38:34,500 --> 00:38:37,500
Ironically enough, the ball came up and hit him on the right side.
516
00:38:37,500 --> 00:38:40,500
He's okay, going to stay in.
517
00:38:40,500 --> 00:38:45,500
Stung a little bit.
518
00:38:45,500 --> 00:38:47,500
Al backed out before getting ready to go.
519
00:38:47,500 --> 00:38:52,500
One ball, two strikes to the Dodger pitcher Al Downing.
520
00:38:52,500 --> 00:38:54,500
Now the pitch.
521
00:38:54,500 --> 00:38:56,500
Bounced toward shortstop.
522
00:38:56,500 --> 00:38:58,500
Santa comes in, short hop, and throws in time.
523
00:38:58,500 --> 00:39:02,500
Santa's cutting in front of Kessinger to make the play.
524
00:39:02,500 --> 00:39:04,500
Two down, the batter will be Maury Wills,
525
00:39:04,500 --> 00:39:07,500
and Maury will wait a moment for Al to get back and have a seat.
526
00:39:07,500 --> 00:39:09,500
Wills rounded out his first time up.
527
00:39:09,500 --> 00:39:12,500
The Dodgers do not have a hit against Pappas.
528
00:39:12,500 --> 00:39:15,500
They have one batter on on a walk, Allen.
529
00:39:15,500 --> 00:39:25,500
The Cubs have one hit a ground single by Davis, just under Wills' glove.
530
00:39:25,500 --> 00:39:38,500
Maury Wills coming up.
531
00:39:38,500 --> 00:39:40,500
Pappas ready, and the wind up in the pitch on the way to Maury.
532
00:39:40,500 --> 00:39:43,500
Fastball first strike, 0-1.
533
00:39:43,500 --> 00:39:46,500
Santa plays in on the grass, banks even with the bag at first.
534
00:39:46,500 --> 00:39:48,500
The outfield shifts to the left against Maury.
535
00:39:48,500 --> 00:39:50,500
They gap him in right center.
536
00:39:50,500 --> 00:39:51,500
Here's the pitch.
537
00:39:51,500 --> 00:39:52,500
Low with a breaking ball.
538
00:39:52,500 --> 00:39:54,500
One ball, one strike.
539
00:39:54,500 --> 00:39:59,500
First game of the Twineye Doubleheader.
540
00:39:59,500 --> 00:40:04,500
Our second doubleheader at home this year is a curve low for a ball,
541
00:40:04,500 --> 00:40:12,500
and the count is 2-1, two balls and one strike.
542
00:40:12,500 --> 00:40:13,500
Time called now.
543
00:40:13,500 --> 00:40:29,500
Played on par with Pseudal once to check the baseball.
544
00:40:29,500 --> 00:40:31,500
Now the pitch on the way to Maury.
545
00:40:31,500 --> 00:40:39,500
Breaking ball inside, ball free, and it's 3-1.
546
00:40:39,500 --> 00:40:41,500
Wills waiting too out, 3-1 count Crawford on deck.
547
00:40:41,500 --> 00:40:43,500
Pappas ready, delivers.
548
00:40:43,500 --> 00:40:49,500
Way outside, he walked him in, so Wills is on and Crawford will be coming up.
549
00:40:49,500 --> 00:41:05,500
Willie Crawford to left field.
550
00:41:05,500 --> 00:41:16,500
Here's Crawford stepping in now.
551
00:41:16,500 --> 00:41:22,500
Pitch comes in for a strike to Willie Crawford.
552
00:41:22,500 --> 00:41:23,500
Wills on it first.
553
00:41:23,500 --> 00:41:29,500
Crawford fouled out his first time up.
554
00:41:29,500 --> 00:41:32,500
Next pitch is outside for ball, 1-1.
555
00:41:32,500 --> 00:41:34,500
This is the second doubleheader for the Dodgers at home.
556
00:41:34,500 --> 00:41:37,500
They will have one more scheduled at home, a Sunday doubleheader in September
557
00:41:37,500 --> 00:41:45,500
against Atlanta, September the 19th.
558
00:41:45,500 --> 00:41:46,500
1-1 the count, Wills going.
559
00:41:46,500 --> 00:41:48,500
Here's Canna's arrow, throw down, he's face.
560
00:41:48,500 --> 00:41:50,500
The ball goes in the center field.
561
00:41:50,500 --> 00:41:52,500
Wills is up and will hold on now.
562
00:41:52,500 --> 00:41:56,500
He was pinned there by Kessinger, could not get out from under the pile.
563
00:41:56,500 --> 00:42:01,500
And so he could not advance the third.
564
00:42:01,500 --> 00:42:05,500
As Brock Davis came in quickly, it will be a stolen base for Wills.
565
00:42:05,500 --> 00:42:11,500
The Maury steals it.
566
00:42:11,500 --> 00:42:13,500
That's his eighth of the year.
567
00:42:13,500 --> 00:42:17,500
He has been caught six times.
568
00:42:17,500 --> 00:42:22,500
All right, Crawford waiting now with a 2-1 count, trying to get the run in.
569
00:42:22,500 --> 00:42:25,500
Dodgers still looking for their first base hit.
570
00:42:25,500 --> 00:42:27,500
Wills is second to pitch.
571
00:42:27,500 --> 00:42:29,500
Look at the left center field, Davis coming fast for it.
572
00:42:29,500 --> 00:42:31,500
A running diving catch.
573
00:42:31,500 --> 00:42:34,500
He took a base hit away from Willie.
574
00:42:34,500 --> 00:42:39,500
Racing in and skidding to his knee to handle the ball for the out to retire the side.
575
00:42:39,500 --> 00:42:42,500
So a fine play by center fielder Brock Davis.
576
00:42:42,500 --> 00:42:47,500
No runs, no hits, one left from the score at the end of three innings of play.
577
00:42:47,500 --> 00:42:52,500
Cubs nothing, Dodgers nothing.
578
00:42:52,500 --> 00:42:54,500
They are just figuring out the weekly shopping list.
579
00:42:54,500 --> 00:42:56,500
What meats to serve for supper?
580
00:42:56,500 --> 00:42:57,500
That's the big question.
581
00:42:57,500 --> 00:43:00,500
One meat some homemakers tend to overlook is sausage.
582
00:43:00,500 --> 00:43:03,500
Oh sure, they serve Parmesan sausage for breakfast,
583
00:43:03,500 --> 00:43:07,500
but you know it's also a hearty wholesome main meal meat too.
584
00:43:07,500 --> 00:43:11,500
Parmesan makes his sausage with all the best meat, not just the trimming.
585
00:43:11,500 --> 00:43:13,500
It's extra nourishing and satisfying.
586
00:43:13,500 --> 00:43:16,500
He uses only finest eastern corn fed pork,
587
00:43:16,500 --> 00:43:20,500
and it's fresher than fresh because it's dress fresh right here in the west.
588
00:43:20,500 --> 00:43:24,500
Then Parmesan seasons the sausage to an old time western recipe.
589
00:43:24,500 --> 00:43:27,500
They give a wonderful western flavor to every lean, luscious morsel.
590
00:43:27,500 --> 00:43:30,500
And when you compare Parmesan sausage with other meats,
591
00:43:30,500 --> 00:43:32,500
you'll discover how inexpensive it is.
592
00:43:32,500 --> 00:43:35,500
Yes, Parmesan sausage has everything going for it,
593
00:43:35,500 --> 00:43:37,500
whether you serve it for breakfast or supper.
594
00:43:37,500 --> 00:43:41,500
Parmesan sausage, gold medal winner at the California State Fair.
595
00:43:41,500 --> 00:43:46,500
And remember, it's the easternmost in quality and the westernmost in flavors.
596
00:43:46,500 --> 00:43:49,500
Parmesan.
597
00:43:49,500 --> 00:43:51,500
No scores, we go along into the fourth inning.
598
00:43:51,500 --> 00:43:52,500
More play, let's go back to the finish.
599
00:43:52,500 --> 00:43:55,500
All right, Jerry, for the Cubs it'll be Jim Hickman,
600
00:43:55,500 --> 00:44:01,500
the number three hitter in the lineup, followed by Ron Santo, and then Cleo James.
601
00:44:01,500 --> 00:44:04,500
Al Downing, taken up by his own foul ball there in the third inning,
602
00:44:04,500 --> 00:44:07,500
about ready to go to work in the fourth.
603
00:44:07,500 --> 00:44:11,500
Shadows now starting to reach out and take over parts of the field
604
00:44:11,500 --> 00:44:16,500
as Downing delivers big, slow curve, first strike, going one.
605
00:44:16,500 --> 00:44:23,500
Hickman flied to right field in the first inning when Buckner handled three out there.
606
00:44:23,500 --> 00:44:28,500
Downing comes back with a strike one pitch and a palm ball is fouled away in the count, 0-2.
607
00:44:28,500 --> 00:44:33,500
Willie Crawford is faithfully ensconced in the shadow and left now.
608
00:44:33,500 --> 00:44:36,500
Davis and Buckner still fighting it.
609
00:44:36,500 --> 00:44:41,500
Richie Allen is in a wedge of shade, covering third.
610
00:44:41,500 --> 00:44:45,500
0-2, the count of Jim Hickman.
611
00:44:45,500 --> 00:44:47,500
Downing into the lineup and the left-hander delivers,
612
00:44:47,500 --> 00:44:50,500
high and inside and Hickman drops to his right knee, not taking any chances.
613
00:44:50,500 --> 00:44:55,500
1-2, the count.
614
00:44:55,500 --> 00:44:59,500
Dodgers try to win their 49th game.
615
00:44:59,500 --> 00:45:04,500
Downing delivers, palm ball is a one-hopper banged into our field, a base hit for Jennings.
616
00:45:04,500 --> 00:45:08,500
So Hickman makes a turn and holding and the throw comes into will.
617
00:45:08,500 --> 00:45:11,500
That's hit number two for the Cubs. The Dodgers do not have a hit.
618
00:45:11,500 --> 00:45:21,500
And the batter is Ron Santo.
619
00:45:21,500 --> 00:45:25,500
Santo walked in the second inning.
620
00:45:25,500 --> 00:45:29,500
Ron is a stand to the play, hitting 297 with 15 home runs.
621
00:45:29,500 --> 00:45:32,500
Back to Chicago.
622
00:45:32,500 --> 00:45:38,500
The strike one pitch to Santo, high and outside, 1-1.
623
00:45:38,500 --> 00:45:42,500
We're in the fourth, no score, so Al Downing in another one of those things.
624
00:45:42,500 --> 00:45:47,500
Last time up, he had to go and wait until the ninth inning when Willie Davis got a run over.
625
00:45:47,500 --> 00:45:53,500
And the Dodgers beat San Diego 1-0 and he scored us in the fourth today.
626
00:45:53,500 --> 00:45:57,500
The one-one pitch to Santo is popped in the air.
627
00:45:57,500 --> 00:46:01,500
Will's going out. Let's watch him now and see what he does in this count of a play.
628
00:46:01,500 --> 00:46:07,500
Waiting, makes it, drops it, picks it up, throws to a feeder who's going to run over and tag Hickman.
629
00:46:07,500 --> 00:46:10,500
And this looks like a repeat. Hickman was running on his own.
630
00:46:10,500 --> 00:46:13,500
That could be a double play if they got Santo.
631
00:46:13,500 --> 00:46:17,500
If Hickman just went, we'll watch the umpires.
632
00:46:17,500 --> 00:46:22,500
If Santo was out on the pop fly, Hickman would be out for running on his own.
633
00:46:22,500 --> 00:46:26,500
And the play that we're not very happy with, but it's the rules.
634
00:46:26,500 --> 00:46:31,500
The roach is coming out. The baserunner runs on his own now.
635
00:46:31,500 --> 00:46:33,500
And they're going to have to explain it.
636
00:46:33,500 --> 00:46:40,500
If Will caught the ball and then intentionally dropped it, if the baserunner is puckered into it, he's out.
637
00:46:40,500 --> 00:46:42,500
That's the rule. It is the worst rule.
638
00:46:42,500 --> 00:46:49,500
It's a rule that we got quite hot about, I guess, so it sounded when we were playing San Diego and Will did it.
639
00:46:49,500 --> 00:46:58,500
But the one thing that does seem so unfair, you are asking the baserunners to realize that Will has intentionally dropped the ball.
640
00:46:58,500 --> 00:47:07,500
So very simply, the rule states that if an infielder intentionally dropped the pop fly, the batter is out and the baserunner is running on his own risk.
641
00:47:07,500 --> 00:47:15,500
So if it is ruled that Will's intentionally dropped it, the batter, Santo, who hit it, is out and Hickman was running on his own.
642
00:47:15,500 --> 00:47:22,500
Of course, I do think that baseball ought to take this rule out of the books, but it's in the books and there's not much they can do about it.
643
00:47:22,500 --> 00:47:27,500
Now Steiner is explaining it to the lion and you know what? There's not a thing he can do about it.
644
00:47:27,500 --> 00:47:31,500
They have taken the teeth away from Leo the lion.
645
00:47:31,500 --> 00:47:38,500
Now if the umpires just rule that Will should not catch the ball, then it would just be a force play on Hickman.
646
00:47:38,500 --> 00:47:40,500
So Santo is standing there.
647
00:47:40,500 --> 00:47:46,500
But if the umpires have ruled that Will caught the ball, then it's a double play. There's nothing they can do about it.
648
00:47:46,500 --> 00:47:49,500
Because when Hickman started running, he was running on his own.
649
00:47:49,500 --> 00:47:52,500
And I agree with you, it's a miserable rule, but it's there.
650
00:47:52,500 --> 00:47:58,500
And of course, you give Will a lot of credit for understanding it and the umpires are handcuffed.
651
00:47:58,500 --> 00:48:03,500
There's no way the umpires can inform the runner. That's what I think is so unfair about it.
652
00:48:03,500 --> 00:48:08,500
The runner is watching. He can't tell that Will has intentionally dropped it.
653
00:48:08,500 --> 00:48:10,500
But the Cubs are done.
654
00:48:10,500 --> 00:48:15,500
And all they have to do is talk to Preston Gomez and the rest of the San Diego Padres.
655
00:48:15,500 --> 00:48:20,500
And that would be the second scalp dangling from Will's belt.
656
00:48:20,500 --> 00:48:25,500
It'll be a double play and it's just a matter of Leo finally swallowing it.
657
00:48:25,500 --> 00:48:29,500
And boy, to say, well I want to curse you, I say about a bone in the throat.
658
00:48:29,500 --> 00:48:33,500
Well this rule is, believe me, a bone in the throat of baseball. It should be thrown out.
659
00:48:33,500 --> 00:48:37,500
But it's in the book. So the double play isn't a thing they can do about it.
660
00:48:37,500 --> 00:48:44,500
We went round and round about it with our Barlett Quartet here and the San Diego Padres.
661
00:48:44,500 --> 00:48:50,500
And now with Rocha. So here goes Sando. It's a double play and the Cubs go back to the gaga.
662
00:48:50,500 --> 00:49:02,500
I just hope that various people who can do it, they're not going to listen to some radio announcer beat his gums and say, hey we ought to change the rules.
663
00:49:02,500 --> 00:49:10,500
But boy it's about time the fellas who make the game fix. The officials sat down and said, hey this rule has an odor about it.
664
00:49:10,500 --> 00:49:17,500
It's not fair. It's not fair to ask the umpires to read intent when a pitcher throws close to a batter.
665
00:49:17,500 --> 00:49:22,500
Then why should a baserunner have to read intent on a pop fly to an infielder?
666
00:49:22,500 --> 00:49:26,500
It's the second time the Dodgers have gotten away with it in a little more than a week.
667
00:49:26,500 --> 00:49:34,500
And the lion has gotten his tail tied in a knot and he goes back to the gaga. It's a double play. The double play, 6-4.
668
00:49:34,500 --> 00:49:39,500
Wills is the guy, he's the wizard. He's one of the few players in the league.
669
00:49:39,500 --> 00:49:45,500
In fact in watching everybody he was the only player in the league who realized the runner runs on his own.
670
00:49:45,500 --> 00:49:54,500
And that's the second runner he's gotten. So two down and the batter now is Cleo James. He pokes one to right field. That's a base hit.
671
00:49:54,500 --> 00:49:58,500
Buckner comes over and gets it. Cleo a turn and a holding.
672
00:49:58,500 --> 00:50:05,500
So if you're scoring that's a double play. Wills handles the pop fly and throws to the feeder who tags Hickman.
673
00:50:05,500 --> 00:50:14,500
Hickman didn't have to run. But the rotten part of the rule is there's no way that they can inform him in time.
674
00:50:14,500 --> 00:50:23,500
Two down and the batter is blocked. So if you're scoring the double play is 6-4.
675
00:50:23,500 --> 00:50:26,500
Then James follows with a single to right.
676
00:50:26,500 --> 00:50:31,500
And here's Brock Davis who's single just under Wills' glove in the second inning.
677
00:50:31,500 --> 00:50:35,500
Downing Ruddy and delivers. Fastball hit off the plate. A big stopper to the receivers.
678
00:50:35,500 --> 00:50:40,500
He has to hurry to get a guy like Brock and he does. And the inning is over thanks to the heavy play by Wills.
679
00:50:40,500 --> 00:50:47,500
Thanks to a loophole in the rules. And the Cubs are turned away. No runs. Two hits. One left.
680
00:50:47,500 --> 00:50:55,500
The end of three and a half and he's no score.
681
00:50:55,500 --> 00:51:04,500
You can own a lovely two bedroom Katrina cabin in the pine without spending a lot of money.
682
00:51:04,500 --> 00:51:13,500
Without being stuck out in the middle of nowhere. For $14,450 this could be your summer home away from the city or your year-round residence.
683
00:51:13,500 --> 00:51:18,500
You can own both land and Katrina cabin for just $14,450.
684
00:51:18,500 --> 00:51:24,500
You're a few miles from Flagstaff where you'll find fine shopping, restaurants and convenient toys.
685
00:51:24,500 --> 00:51:30,500
Katrina Village. A master plan community. Smack dab in the middle of the most wonderful country ever.
686
00:51:30,500 --> 00:51:35,500
Fresh clear spring water. Smart free skies. The smell of clean air.
687
00:51:35,500 --> 00:51:38,500
There's fishing, hiking, swimming, hunting, horseback riding.
688
00:51:38,500 --> 00:51:44,500
Teen is believing in Katrina Village. A very pleasant two hours north of Phoenix on the Black Canyon Highway.
689
00:51:44,500 --> 00:51:47,500
Look for the sign that says Katrina Village.
690
00:51:47,500 --> 00:51:52,500
This is Teen Tumpty.
691
00:51:52,500 --> 00:52:00,500
Bottom of the fourth inning. No score in the ballgame. The Cubs have been decoyed by the swim flam man, Maury Wills.
692
00:52:00,500 --> 00:52:06,500
And now Willie Davis, Richie Allen and Wes Parker will be coming up with the Dodgers in the fourth.
693
00:52:06,500 --> 00:52:12,500
Walter Alston played on fire that two-dollar discussion. But of course, Alston can say he should have been here last week.
694
00:52:12,500 --> 00:52:16,500
The Dodgers rehearsed that play against San Diego.
695
00:52:16,500 --> 00:52:20,500
And on that high pop fly, as Wills backed out, it was the first shot he had.
696
00:52:20,500 --> 00:52:26,500
Watch what he'll do with this. And sure enough, he baited Hickman.
697
00:52:26,500 --> 00:52:31,500
The batter, Willie Davis. No score. Bottom of the fourth inning.
698
00:52:31,500 --> 00:52:36,500
Peanuts Lowry in the Cub dugout. Planing to repel some of the young infield is exactly what happened.
699
00:52:36,500 --> 00:52:45,500
Tapas delivers. Willie runs up the bunt but takes the strike instead on the count of one.
700
00:52:45,500 --> 00:52:50,500
No runs. Three hits for Chicago. No runs. No hits for the Dodgers.
701
00:52:50,500 --> 00:52:53,500
Tapas ready. Milk strike one-fifth.
702
00:52:53,500 --> 00:53:02,500
Popping the air around the plate. Canagero in foul ground. Throws his mask away. And Rick makes the catch. One away.
703
00:53:02,500 --> 00:53:18,500
And the batter is Richie Allen, who walked in the second inning.
704
00:53:18,500 --> 00:53:28,500
Mill Papas has not allowed a hit for three and a third. We have no score on the ballgame. Downing has allowed a couple of singles.
705
00:53:28,500 --> 00:53:31,500
Now Papas ready and delivers and it's locked in the right field.
706
00:53:31,500 --> 00:53:34,500
Base hit for Richie. Over to get it as Hickman on two hearts.
707
00:53:34,500 --> 00:53:44,500
So a one-out single by Richie Allen breaks the spell and the batter will be Wes Parker.
708
00:53:44,500 --> 00:53:54,500
Wes Parker.
709
00:53:54,500 --> 00:53:58,500
Wes Parker. Quick hitting first baseman batting left-handed.
710
00:53:58,500 --> 00:54:14,500
Papas ready and deals and that's a strike inside corner. A throw to first. Allen back to the bag. 0-1.
711
00:54:14,500 --> 00:54:21,500
Papas again straightens out. The strike one-fifth off-speed and away. In the count one ball and one strike.
712
00:54:21,500 --> 00:54:28,500
Duke Sims in the on-dack circle. One-out fourth inning no score. The Chubs with three hits. The Dodgers with one hit.
713
00:54:28,500 --> 00:54:36,500
First to two. Papas deals. Parker takes high. Wes with a seven-game hitting streak. He's back to the box in the second inning.
714
00:54:36,500 --> 00:54:44,500
If you are driving home or in case you haven't heard about it, the Astros beat the Giants today 18-4.
715
00:54:44,500 --> 00:54:56,500
Parker hits the ground ball at shortstop. Kessinger to Becker. The throw to first. Not in time.
716
00:54:56,500 --> 00:55:03,500
Kessinger had to wait for Becker. Glenn was playing Parker to pull. He was deep in the hole on the right side.
717
00:55:03,500 --> 00:55:10,500
And of course while Kessinger waited for Becker to run to second base, Parker was running to first so they lost the chance of the double play.
718
00:55:10,500 --> 00:55:27,500
Simple course and here's Duke Sims. Sims popped up in the second inning. He's 0-1.
719
00:55:27,500 --> 00:55:37,500
Cavish. Danny Hothel rather for the moment while Sims, fusses with the dirt, had a look at Danny Ozarks.
720
00:55:37,500 --> 00:55:50,500
Parker does not do too much base stealing. He's three out of five. The fifth, low and away ball one, one and oh.
721
00:55:50,500 --> 00:55:56,500
No score. Bottom of the fourth, two out. Giants lost at Augustine to get rich today.
722
00:55:56,500 --> 00:56:03,500
Against the good club, the Cubs, who have been playing very well. Parker goes. Sims takes the strike. The throw down.
723
00:56:03,500 --> 00:56:12,500
He's stolen it. He was way around the tag by Kessinger. For Parker, that is his fourth stolen base.
724
00:56:12,500 --> 00:56:21,500
West stole eight last year and then two years in a row he had only four.
725
00:56:21,500 --> 00:56:26,500
West averages about seven stolen bases a year in his big league career.
726
00:56:26,500 --> 00:56:34,500
So he's there to be picked up now. One and one to count.
727
00:56:34,500 --> 00:56:41,500
One and one to count to Duke Sims with two out. Parker at second base. No score in the fourth.
728
00:56:41,500 --> 00:56:47,500
Cavish at the belt, no delivers and as a line drive to the right, base hit down the line.
729
00:56:47,500 --> 00:56:59,500
Parker will score and the Dodgers lead one to nothing.
730
00:56:59,500 --> 00:57:17,500
Before the fever, let's pause for a second to identify the Missical Los Angeles Dodgers radio network.
731
00:57:17,500 --> 00:57:20,500
One to nothing in favor of the Dodgers.
732
00:57:20,500 --> 00:57:29,500
Alan Singled with one out. Parker forced him and stole second and Duke Sims singled to right to pick him up.
733
00:57:29,500 --> 00:57:33,500
Now Lefebvre at the plate and Cavish steals and it's flung on a miss.
734
00:57:33,500 --> 00:57:37,500
Jimmy struck out in the second and in.
735
00:57:37,500 --> 00:57:41,500
One nothing Dodgers in the fourth.
736
00:57:41,500 --> 00:57:47,500
Cavish head down thinking over his pitches. Sims a short lead held on by Banks.
737
00:57:47,500 --> 00:57:54,500
Lefebvre chased a bad pitch and didn't get it. The back of Canazaro's mitt hit the dirt in the right hand hitter's box.
738
00:57:54,500 --> 00:57:58,500
Jimmy backed out for a moment. Oh and two to count.
739
00:57:58,500 --> 00:58:03,500
The mound is cut in half by Shadows and Suns.
740
00:58:03,500 --> 00:58:07,500
And fingers of shadow go from the mound over towards first base.
741
00:58:07,500 --> 00:58:22,500
The strike two pitch outside ball one, one and two.
742
00:58:22,500 --> 00:58:27,500
Here's the one two pitch on the way. Lefebvre swings and misses so Pappas ties in newt around him again.
743
00:58:27,500 --> 00:58:29,500
That's the second time he's struck Jimmy out.
744
00:58:29,500 --> 00:58:34,500
But the Dodgers get a run on two hits and at the end of four, Dodgers one, Cavs nothing.
745
00:58:34,500 --> 00:58:37,500
We all know what low lead gasoline will do for the year.
746
00:58:37,500 --> 00:58:42,500
It's a practical easy way for all of us to do something about solution.
747
00:58:42,500 --> 00:58:46,500
All right Marge your bags are in the trunk. You have the map the Union 76 dealer gave you?
748
00:58:46,500 --> 00:58:48,500
Really George I'm only going to be gone three days.
749
00:58:48,500 --> 00:58:52,500
I know Marge but it pays to be careful. You have the Union 76 credit card?
750
00:58:52,500 --> 00:58:53,500
Yes George.
751
00:58:53,500 --> 00:58:54,500
Now let's see. You'll call me as soon as you get this.
752
00:58:54,500 --> 00:58:55,500
Yes George.
753
00:58:55,500 --> 00:59:00,500
Now watch the fuel gauge and the oil and the Union dealer fill the windshield washer and check the tires. Everything's fine.
754
00:59:00,500 --> 00:59:04,500
I know it is George. Now relax. It's only a 75 mile drive.
755
00:59:04,500 --> 00:59:08,500
I know Marge but you can't be too careful. People just don't have the same old spirit nowadays.
756
00:59:08,500 --> 00:59:16,500
And remember Marge if anything at all seems to be going wrong, stop at a Union 76 station. They'll help.
757
00:59:16,500 --> 00:59:23,500
That's right. Whenever you need driving help, be it repair work or only direction, stop at a Union 76 service station.
758
00:59:23,500 --> 00:59:27,500
That's why we're there to help you. And we don't act like we're doing your favor either.
759
00:59:27,500 --> 00:59:30,500
Because we feel you're doing us a favor just by stopping in.
760
00:59:30,500 --> 00:59:33,500
George what do you plan to do those three days I'm gone?
761
00:59:33,500 --> 00:59:34,500
Eat out of luck.
762
00:59:34,500 --> 00:59:35,500
I love your spirit.
763
00:59:35,500 --> 00:59:38,500
The spirit of 76 lives at Union Oil.
764
00:59:38,500 --> 00:59:43,500
Through four innings the Dodgers leading the Cubs 1-0. One run, two hits for the Dodgers.
765
00:59:43,500 --> 00:59:48,500
No runs, three hits and no errors for the Cubs. Al Downing and Milt Pappas.
766
00:59:48,500 --> 00:59:52,500
The second game will feature the veteran and the rookie.
767
00:59:52,500 --> 01:00:01,500
Ron Fisaro will be pitching for the Cubs and for the Dodgers 20 year old Doyle Alexander.
768
01:00:01,500 --> 01:00:16,500
Ernie Banks, Chris Canagero and Milt Pappas in that order as we move into the fifth inning.
769
01:00:16,500 --> 01:00:19,500
Banks waiting at the plate.
770
01:00:19,500 --> 01:00:26,500
Al Downing looks in for a sign, left hand already in the fastball, a strike on one.
771
01:00:26,500 --> 01:00:29,500
So if you are starting dinner now you don't have to hurry up, just take your time.
772
01:00:29,500 --> 01:00:32,500
We've got lots of good baseball ahead of you tonight.
773
01:00:32,500 --> 01:00:35,500
The strike one pitch, curve ball just outside.
774
01:00:35,500 --> 01:00:39,500
A two handed gesture by Tudor, the indicator was off the corner.
775
01:00:39,500 --> 01:00:43,500
And the count one and one.
776
01:00:43,500 --> 01:00:45,500
Downing to the wind up and the one one pitch on the way.
777
01:00:45,500 --> 01:00:52,500
Fastball, a big chopper to Allen, he leaps in the air to one handed, grips the ball and throws him out.
778
01:00:52,500 --> 01:00:58,500
What made the play work for Allen, Banks runs very slowly now down to first base.
779
01:00:58,500 --> 01:01:03,500
Ernie's knees are giving him a very bad time.
780
01:01:03,500 --> 01:01:09,500
And with Allen leaping in the air, coming down, having to really set the grip and then throw and he still threw him out by 20.
781
01:01:09,500 --> 01:01:14,500
So it was a long run, it was much more than 90 feet for Banks all uphill.
782
01:01:14,500 --> 01:01:17,500
One away and Chris Cannazero the batter.
783
01:01:17,500 --> 01:01:22,500
Eddie Tudor has become the Inspector General back of the plate, he's been checking that baseball carefully.
784
01:01:22,500 --> 01:01:26,500
Particularly the ball when delivered by Pappas and now he had a look at that one.
785
01:01:26,500 --> 01:01:32,500
One out and here's Chris Cannazero.
786
01:01:32,500 --> 01:01:35,500
Cannazero hit into a forced play in the second inning.
787
01:01:35,500 --> 01:01:40,500
Right hand hitting catcher on deck, Milt Pappas.
788
01:01:40,500 --> 01:01:46,500
Downing ready, Al delivers fastball for a strike.
789
01:01:46,500 --> 01:01:53,500
Dodgers leading 1-0, Duke Simms single home Parker who had forced Allen and stolen seconds.
790
01:01:53,500 --> 01:02:06,500
The strike one pitch on the way, fastball just outside, 1-1.
791
01:02:06,500 --> 01:02:11,500
Here's a 1-1 pitch on the way, fastball, pop foul back of the plate, no play for Simms.
792
01:02:11,500 --> 01:02:14,500
He's going to come back to the screen and can't get it.
793
01:02:14,500 --> 01:02:27,500
On the other side of the screen bouncing in, 1-2.
794
01:02:27,500 --> 01:02:38,500
Chris Cannazero hitting with one out in the fifth inning.
795
01:02:38,500 --> 01:02:45,500
Chris slowly back up to the plate, Dodgers leading 1-0, the Giants lost today.
796
01:02:45,500 --> 01:02:53,500
Here's a 1-2 pitch on the way, swung on and missed, the palm ball got him swinging.
797
01:02:53,500 --> 01:02:57,500
Downing picks up his third strikeout and Milt Pappas a good hitting pitcher.
798
01:02:57,500 --> 01:03:02,500
He's had 18 home runs in his career coming up.
799
01:03:02,500 --> 01:03:10,500
Pappas has a half a dozen hits this year, one double and a run batted in.
800
01:03:10,500 --> 01:03:15,500
Milt right hand batters.
801
01:03:15,500 --> 01:03:24,500
What a beautiful evening in the ballpark.
802
01:03:24,500 --> 01:03:32,500
Pappas hits one foul outside of third, 0-1.
803
01:03:32,500 --> 01:03:38,500
Downing with a new ball, back to home play, just rubbing it up.
804
01:03:38,500 --> 01:03:41,500
Simms wigwags a sign out and Downing ready.
805
01:03:41,500 --> 01:03:54,500
Here's a strike one pitch to Pappas, breaking ball fouled away up along third to Peanut Lowry in the count 0-2.
806
01:03:54,500 --> 01:04:03,500
First of two, Doyle Alexander and Juan Pizarro in the night cap.
807
01:04:03,500 --> 01:04:07,500
Downing into the windup and the strike two pitch, fastball blew him down.
808
01:04:07,500 --> 01:04:12,500
Downing in order and at the end of four and a half innings Dodgers 1-Cubs nothing.
809
01:04:12,500 --> 01:04:38,500
Schlitz, Milwaukee in the world.
810
01:04:38,500 --> 01:04:42,500
You only get one crack at life and you've got to live it with all the stress though you get.
811
01:04:42,500 --> 01:04:46,500
In everything, even the beer you drink.
812
01:04:46,500 --> 01:04:56,500
Schlitz.
813
01:04:56,500 --> 01:05:12,500
Quite subtle for left, but you rather Schlitz, you rather beer.
814
01:05:12,500 --> 01:05:15,500
Bottom of the fifth inning, the Dodgers one run, two hits.
815
01:05:15,500 --> 01:05:17,500
The Cubs no runs, three hits.
816
01:05:17,500 --> 01:05:21,500
The Dodgers put their two hits together for the run in the fourth inning.
817
01:05:21,500 --> 01:05:26,500
After being held at list for three in a third innings, Richie Allen lined a single to right.
818
01:05:26,500 --> 01:05:28,500
Parker forced him.
819
01:05:28,500 --> 01:05:35,500
As we said, they couldn't get the double play because Becker was playing Parker to full and Kessinger had to wait for him to come to the bag.
820
01:05:35,500 --> 01:05:37,500
And by that time Parker beat the thrower first.
821
01:05:37,500 --> 01:05:42,500
Then West was able to steal second and Sim single to drive in the run.
822
01:05:42,500 --> 01:05:47,500
On the message board, a question and a lengthy answer.
823
01:05:47,500 --> 01:05:54,500
And the last part of the answer, Chicagoan of the year selected as the greatest Cub ever in his 19th season, Mr. Cub Ernie Banks.
824
01:05:54,500 --> 01:05:57,500
And the reason for the roar of applause in the background.
825
01:05:57,500 --> 01:06:03,500
That's the title of Ernie's book, Mr. Cub co-authored with Jimmy Enright.
826
01:06:03,500 --> 01:06:10,500
John Hall had a nice column on the book and we would recommend it as one of those happy good books on baseball and on quite a man.
827
01:06:10,500 --> 01:06:16,500
The pitch to Bill Buckner outside, ball one, one and oh.
828
01:06:16,500 --> 01:06:20,500
Pappas comes back in the fastball is low ball two.
829
01:06:20,500 --> 01:06:22,500
Buckner flied to right field in the third inning.
830
01:06:22,500 --> 01:06:28,500
He's all for one.
831
01:06:28,500 --> 01:06:33,500
Pappas arms dangling now ready and the two-oh pitch is lifted to center field.
832
01:06:33,500 --> 01:06:36,500
Brock Davis comes up in a patch of shade and makes the catch.
833
01:06:36,500 --> 01:06:40,500
One away.
834
01:06:40,500 --> 01:06:41,500
Waiting for Al Downing.
835
01:06:41,500 --> 01:06:44,500
Downing grounded to third in the third inning.
836
01:06:44,500 --> 01:06:55,500
After his own foul ball, jumps up and bit him on the right side of the head.
837
01:06:55,500 --> 01:06:58,500
Al right hand batter.
838
01:06:58,500 --> 01:07:02,500
Pappas reading signs now comes to Downing for a strike.
839
01:07:02,500 --> 01:07:06,500
Al has ten hits including two doubles and four home runs.
840
01:07:06,500 --> 01:07:09,500
And he's a great guy to have out there if you need a sacrifice.
841
01:07:09,500 --> 01:07:13,500
He has run it successfully for sacrifices six times.
842
01:07:13,500 --> 01:07:18,500
The pitch to Al low one and one.
843
01:07:18,500 --> 01:07:24,500
Bill Hands of the Cubs is another fellow who's a good mutter to move a runner along.
844
01:07:24,500 --> 01:07:27,500
Downing waxed to right center field and there's nobody there.
845
01:07:27,500 --> 01:07:28,500
Davis and Hickman converging.
846
01:07:28,500 --> 01:07:32,500
It's Hickman making a nice running catch.
847
01:07:32,500 --> 01:07:35,500
Al Downing goes out to Jim Hickman in right center.
848
01:07:35,500 --> 01:07:39,500
That made it a particularly good catch for Hickman.
849
01:07:39,500 --> 01:07:42,500
He had to get a jump squinting into the sun.
850
01:07:42,500 --> 01:07:44,500
Davis could not have gotten there.
851
01:07:44,500 --> 01:07:46,500
So two out and here is Maury Wells.
852
01:07:46,500 --> 01:07:47,500
Grounded out and walked.
853
01:07:47,500 --> 01:07:48,500
0 for 1.
854
01:07:48,500 --> 01:07:51,500
He has already had his fine hand in this ball game.
855
01:07:51,500 --> 01:07:57,500
When he put on a repeat performance, the play that had upset the Padres last week.
856
01:07:57,500 --> 01:08:01,500
Nailed the Cubs in the fourth inning.
857
01:08:01,500 --> 01:08:05,500
Pappas ready and deals and Maury lifts one to shallow left center field.
858
01:08:05,500 --> 01:08:08,500
Davis and James and Cleo James makes the catch.
859
01:08:08,500 --> 01:08:09,500
The Dodgers are gone in a hurry.
860
01:08:09,500 --> 01:08:12,500
At the end of five, Dodgers 1-Cup is nothing.
861
01:08:12,500 --> 01:08:16,500
Sometimes Farmer John tosses out a remark that makes me do a double take.
862
01:08:16,500 --> 01:08:20,500
Now just the other day he said a Farmer John ham is like a baseball game.
863
01:08:20,500 --> 01:08:23,500
What he meant he said is that both give you a lot of action for your money.
864
01:08:23,500 --> 01:08:31,500
Consider, he added, how much lean red high protein meat you get from a Farmer John ham butt or shank for the low cost per pound.
865
01:08:31,500 --> 01:08:35,500
Plus Farmer John ham provides a bonus in flavors.
866
01:08:35,500 --> 01:08:40,500
Farmer John smokes his ham two to three times as long as some people over meat at Weston Wood.
867
01:08:40,500 --> 01:08:43,500
To give it a marvelous Weston flavor all its own.
868
01:08:43,500 --> 01:08:46,500
The first time you bake Farmer John ham you can tell the difference.
869
01:08:46,500 --> 01:08:51,500
And when you make leftover ham dishes, the wonderful Weston flavor comes through loud and clear.
870
01:08:51,500 --> 01:08:53,500
Most meats do for just one meal.
871
01:08:53,500 --> 01:08:57,500
A Farmer John ham makes three or four low cost family feasts.
872
01:08:57,500 --> 01:09:02,500
So for meat that's as easy on your budget as it is pleasing, get Farmer John ham.
873
01:09:02,500 --> 01:09:05,500
Gold medal winner at the California State Fair.
874
01:09:05,500 --> 01:09:13,500
It's the Easton most in quality and the Weston most in flavors.
875
01:09:13,500 --> 01:09:16,500
Through five innings the Dodgers leading the Cubs one to nothing.
876
01:09:16,500 --> 01:09:19,500
A run two hits for the Dodgers, no runs three hits for the Cubs.
877
01:09:19,500 --> 01:09:25,500
Between games tonight we'll have the 65 voice choir of Whittier's First Nazarene Church
878
01:09:25,500 --> 01:09:29,500
in a patriotic musical called In God We Press under the direction of Ed Anderson.
879
01:09:29,500 --> 01:09:32,500
That should indeed be pleasant to the ear.
880
01:09:32,500 --> 01:09:38,500
65 voices of the Whittier's First Nazarene Church.
881
01:09:38,500 --> 01:09:40,500
Oh we've had quite a five.
882
01:09:40,500 --> 01:09:46,500
Pappas and Downing battling this thing out and Al is shading milk so far one to nothing.
883
01:09:46,500 --> 01:09:50,500
Half of the infield in shade now.
884
01:09:50,500 --> 01:09:54,500
All have left the field in shade.
885
01:09:54,500 --> 01:09:56,500
But still a very bright sky.
886
01:09:56,500 --> 01:10:01,500
Don Kessinger, Glenn Beckert and Jim Hickman in that order.
887
01:10:01,500 --> 01:10:04,500
In the sixth one nothing Dodgers.
888
01:10:04,500 --> 01:10:06,500
Kessinger flied to right and struck out.
889
01:10:06,500 --> 01:10:09,500
Kessinger does not make a habit of striking out.
890
01:10:09,500 --> 01:10:14,500
In 320 at bats he's only struck out 25 times.
891
01:10:14,500 --> 01:10:16,500
Fastball over low ball one.
892
01:10:16,500 --> 01:10:23,500
Soudal brought up the right hand but only to indicate him with a downward gesture that the pitch was low.
893
01:10:23,500 --> 01:10:27,500
Allen even in fact to step up inside the bag at third.
894
01:10:27,500 --> 01:10:30,500
The next one high ball two.
895
01:10:30,500 --> 01:10:38,500
This first game is so important to both clubs of course because of the fact there is a slight pitching shortage for tomorrow night.
896
01:10:38,500 --> 01:10:44,500
The two old pitch inside so Downing is missed low outside and inside.
897
01:10:44,500 --> 01:10:50,500
Three and all the count.
898
01:10:50,500 --> 01:10:53,500
Now into his wind up in the three old pitch to Beckert.
899
01:10:53,500 --> 01:10:54,500
Very high.
900
01:10:54,500 --> 01:10:57,500
He was about as wild as he can get.
901
01:10:57,500 --> 01:10:58,500
He was low.
902
01:10:58,500 --> 01:11:00,500
He was high and away.
903
01:11:00,500 --> 01:11:03,500
He was inside and he was high and inside.
904
01:11:03,500 --> 01:11:10,500
Usually you see or hear of a pitcher being wild high or low high but he just missed in all four directions.
905
01:11:10,500 --> 01:11:13,500
The bat at Glenn Beckert.
906
01:11:13,500 --> 01:11:16,500
Second walk given up by Al Downing.
907
01:11:16,500 --> 01:11:18,500
The Cubs like to play hit and run.
908
01:11:18,500 --> 01:11:24,500
Any club that Leo DeRosa ever had anything to do with like to play hit and run and this is an ideal combination.
909
01:11:24,500 --> 01:11:25,500
So Downing has to watch it now.
910
01:11:25,500 --> 01:11:26,500
There they go.
911
01:11:26,500 --> 01:11:28,500
They're playing at a big bouncer over Allen's head.
912
01:11:28,500 --> 01:11:29,500
Base hit.
913
01:11:29,500 --> 01:11:31,500
Kessinger keeps on going to third.
914
01:11:31,500 --> 01:11:33,500
Crawford gets the ball back in.
915
01:11:33,500 --> 01:11:38,500
So you had just about enough time to think hit and run and there it was.
916
01:11:38,500 --> 01:11:47,500
You're not second guessing anybody but you wonder why the Dodgers didn't at least have a pitch out on the first pitch because that was a pretty obvious call on a DeRosa.
917
01:11:47,500 --> 01:11:56,500
So first and third and nobody out and the batter is Jim Hickman.
918
01:11:56,500 --> 01:11:58,500
So a walk followed by a base hit to left.
919
01:11:58,500 --> 01:11:59,500
First and third.
920
01:11:59,500 --> 01:12:01,500
Nobody out.
921
01:12:01,500 --> 01:12:03,500
And Hickman flied to right and single to left.
922
01:12:03,500 --> 01:12:08,500
One for two.
923
01:12:08,500 --> 01:12:09,500
Downing ready.
924
01:12:09,500 --> 01:12:10,500
Al delivers.
925
01:12:10,500 --> 01:12:16,500
Curve ball is felted to left field and that's going to go all the way.
926
01:12:16,500 --> 01:12:39,500
Jim Hickman has just bombed a three run home run to left field and perhaps the tip off on the inning was the way Downing walked Kessinger.
927
01:12:39,500 --> 01:12:43,500
He missed in four different spots on four pitches.
928
01:12:43,500 --> 01:12:50,500
Then hit run single and a three run home run and the Cubs now are leading three to one in the sixth inning.
929
01:12:50,500 --> 01:12:53,500
Nobody out and Ron Stantle the batter.
930
01:12:53,500 --> 01:12:54,500
Fastball is low.
931
01:12:54,500 --> 01:12:56,500
Ball one for Al Downing.
932
01:12:56,500 --> 01:13:00,500
That's the ninth home run he has allowed.
933
01:13:00,500 --> 01:13:04,500
In one hundred and forty five innings.
934
01:13:04,500 --> 01:13:15,500
The three one Chicago and the one oh pitch on the way fastball off the glove of Downing he's running after it picks it up and has no play.
935
01:13:15,500 --> 01:13:32,500
That'll be a base hit for Ron Stantle to slam on up Downing Smith and now the left fielder Cleo James coming up.
936
01:13:32,500 --> 01:13:38,500
Cleo James popped up and single the right he's one for two.
937
01:13:38,500 --> 01:13:43,500
No one throwing yet in the Dodger bullpen.
938
01:13:43,500 --> 01:13:52,500
Downing was moving along nicely through five innings but here in the sixth the walk hit run single a long home run into the Dodger bullpen by Jim Hickman.
939
01:13:52,500 --> 01:14:00,500
By the way that home run by Hickman was his 14 and he has 37 runs batted in.
940
01:14:00,500 --> 01:14:08,500
Downing delivers low and inside ball one and I think it is not so much a loss of stuff that it is a lack of control that is plaguing Downing.
941
01:14:08,500 --> 01:14:12,500
Pete Nicholson gets up in the Dodger bullpen.
942
01:14:12,500 --> 01:14:17,500
One and all the count to Cleo James.
943
01:14:17,500 --> 01:14:19,500
Downing set at the belt.
944
01:14:19,500 --> 01:14:25,500
Al's one oh pitch way outside so when a man starts missing in all directions he's hurting.
945
01:14:25,500 --> 01:14:28,500
It's not just one flaw in his delivery.
946
01:14:28,500 --> 01:14:32,500
The Downing is missing inside outside up and down.
947
01:14:32,500 --> 01:14:35,500
Two and all the count to Cleo James.
948
01:14:35,500 --> 01:14:37,500
Santa with first held on by Parker.
949
01:14:37,500 --> 01:14:39,500
Three one Cubs in the second.
950
01:14:39,500 --> 01:14:44,500
Now reading since straightens up the two oh pitch breaking ball for a strike.
951
01:14:44,500 --> 01:14:46,500
Two and one.
952
01:14:46,500 --> 01:14:50,500
After James comes Brock Davis.
953
01:14:50,500 --> 01:14:59,500
First game of the Twilight Knight doubleheaders and the Dodgers who came home walking on air were brought down to earth hard last night by Ferguson Jenkins.
954
01:14:59,500 --> 01:15:05,500
And are now tasting a little salt here in the first of two tonight.
955
01:15:05,500 --> 01:15:07,500
Downing straightens up looks at Santa.
956
01:15:07,500 --> 01:15:10,500
The two one pitch high ball three.
957
01:15:10,500 --> 01:15:11,500
So he's hurting.
958
01:15:11,500 --> 01:15:16,500
His control is way off and he's struggling.
959
01:15:16,500 --> 01:15:18,500
Davis has a look at Peanuts Lowry.
960
01:15:18,500 --> 01:15:20,500
Three and one to count.
961
01:15:20,500 --> 01:15:22,500
James one for two.
962
01:15:22,500 --> 01:15:25,500
The left hand hitting Brock Davis the center fielder on day.
963
01:15:25,500 --> 01:15:27,500
Passball is low and inside.
964
01:15:27,500 --> 01:15:33,500
He has not hit any wild spots like he has been all around the place.
965
01:15:33,500 --> 01:15:38,500
The Downing is struggling and with nobody out Brock Davis the batter.
966
01:15:38,500 --> 01:15:40,500
It really happened all of a sudden.
967
01:15:40,500 --> 01:15:44,500
In the fifth inning he threw strike after strike to get banks.
968
01:15:44,500 --> 01:15:51,500
Canna zero and Pappas he struck out Canna zero and Pappas and now he just can't put the ball where he wants it.
969
01:15:51,500 --> 01:15:56,500
Brock Davis single he skidded one by wills and grounded out.
970
01:15:56,500 --> 01:16:01,500
He's one for two and Downing in trouble and Parker comes up looking for the bond.
971
01:16:01,500 --> 01:16:03,500
Allen's already on the grass.
972
01:16:03,500 --> 01:16:08,500
Downing at the belt and then backs off the rubber and the runners retreat.
973
01:16:08,500 --> 01:16:19,500
The Downing is on the ropes and Sims out to talk to him now.
974
01:16:19,500 --> 01:16:23,500
Al walks Santo in the first inning but then appeared to settle down.
975
01:16:23,500 --> 01:16:28,500
But he not only has walked two here in the sixth he has been all over it.
976
01:16:28,500 --> 01:16:32,500
Up and down inside outside.
977
01:16:32,500 --> 01:16:37,500
It's one thing you see a pitcher you lose a little control and a pitching coach goes out and says well you're releasing the ball too early
978
01:16:37,500 --> 01:16:43,500
or you're doing this you're doing that but when you're wild all over there's not very much they can do.
979
01:16:43,500 --> 01:16:52,500
All right Davis waiting Downing ready Davis is potting and pulls away the pitch inside a throw to wills not in time to get Santo.
980
01:16:52,500 --> 01:17:05,500
One ball and no strikes to count.
981
01:17:05,500 --> 01:17:10,500
The road here comes up the steps showing some concern and all getting back to the bag.
982
01:17:10,500 --> 01:17:15,500
Apparently felt a muscle pull and Leon now says wait a minute I want to make sure he's all right.
983
01:17:15,500 --> 01:17:19,500
He's in scoring position and I'll find out for myself.
984
01:17:19,500 --> 01:17:21,500
So Leo is advancing to second base.
985
01:17:21,500 --> 01:17:26,500
He not slowly goes over there to see whether Santo is all right or not.
986
01:17:26,500 --> 01:17:34,500
Ron went back awkwardly and I think it would be his wide leg that bothered him and Leo was checking with him right this minute.
987
01:17:34,500 --> 01:17:38,500
Santa has appeared in 80 games.
988
01:17:38,500 --> 01:17:46,500
This is his 81st game so he's played in the mall and Leo wants to make sure he can continue.
989
01:17:46,500 --> 01:17:54,500
The Cubs are leading 3 to 1 the Dodgers got a run in the fourth inning but here in the sixth a walk a hit run single and a home run.
990
01:17:54,500 --> 01:17:59,500
I've given the Cubs three and with nobody out they have two more men aboard.
991
01:17:59,500 --> 01:18:04,500
The Giants were not flat up at Candlestick today the Astros ran up one side and down the other.
992
01:18:04,500 --> 01:18:11,500
They beat the Giants 18 to 4 and the Dodgers losing last night are losing today.
993
01:18:11,500 --> 01:18:14,500
Santo apparently did not satisfy his manager.
994
01:18:14,500 --> 01:18:19,500
Leo didn't like the answers and Paul Popovich will run for him and stay in the game.
995
01:18:19,500 --> 01:18:28,500
So Popovich goes starting out towards second base.
996
01:18:28,500 --> 01:18:40,500
Popovich at second, Cleo James at first, nobody out and Brock Davis at the plate to count one ball in North Strait.
997
01:18:40,500 --> 01:18:45,500
So two fellows who really make the Cubs move are not in this game now.
998
01:18:45,500 --> 01:18:53,500
Pepitone could not answer the bell at the start and Santo has to come out here in the sixth but with all of that the Cubs are leading 3 to 1.
999
01:18:53,500 --> 01:18:59,500
The Dodgers still looking for the run Parker and Allen on the grass, Downing peering into Sims.
1000
01:18:59,500 --> 01:19:05,500
Popovich and James take their leads and Davis backs out.
1001
01:19:05,500 --> 01:19:09,500
Brock a Los Angeles boy.
1002
01:19:09,500 --> 01:19:14,500
He had two hits last night he went two for four.
1003
01:19:14,500 --> 01:19:18,500
His first hit drove in the third Chicago run last night.
1004
01:19:18,500 --> 01:19:22,500
Here's the pitch Davis looks and it's low ball two.
1005
01:19:22,500 --> 01:19:27,500
Downing is like a man struggling to stay afloat.
1006
01:19:27,500 --> 01:19:34,500
The way Pappas is pitching the Dodgers can certainly ill afford the Cubs piling up any kind of a sizable lead.
1007
01:19:34,500 --> 01:19:38,500
And this is an inning where they threaten to do just that.
1008
01:19:38,500 --> 01:19:40,500
Downing straightens up.
1009
01:19:40,500 --> 01:19:47,500
The 2-0 pitch Davis around the bunt takes very high so he has him missed in the same spot twice.
1010
01:19:47,500 --> 01:19:51,500
And Downing is very close to being hooked.
1011
01:19:51,500 --> 01:19:55,500
Richie Allen comes over from third to holler something to him.
1012
01:19:55,500 --> 01:20:02,500
With that desperate feeling that comes over the veteran or a rookie it's all alike they suddenly can't throw a strike.
1013
01:20:02,500 --> 01:20:05,500
3-0 to Brock Davis.
1014
01:20:05,500 --> 01:20:15,500
Downing deals Davis takes a strike 3-1.
1015
01:20:15,500 --> 01:20:19,500
Cubs 3 Dodgers 1 in the sixth inning nobody out.
1016
01:20:19,500 --> 01:20:22,500
Pappas and James taking their lead.
1017
01:20:22,500 --> 01:20:26,500
3-1 Davis takes high the bases are loaded.
1018
01:20:26,500 --> 01:20:28,500
And this is as wild as we've seen Downing.
1019
01:20:28,500 --> 01:20:30,500
It's not just a matter of missing.
1020
01:20:30,500 --> 01:20:41,500
It's the way he's missing and here comes Woller Alston.
1021
01:20:41,500 --> 01:20:46,500
There are three ways to be wild in the big leagues.
1022
01:20:46,500 --> 01:20:51,500
One way to be wild is to really just miss and be wild in one spot.
1023
01:20:51,500 --> 01:20:54,500
Another way to be wild is not to walk anybody.
1024
01:20:54,500 --> 01:21:00,500
But no matter how you try and put the ball it winds up directly over the plate and the hitters bang it away.
1025
01:21:00,500 --> 01:21:04,500
And the third way to be wild is the way Downing is wild and that means curtains.
1026
01:21:04,500 --> 01:21:11,500
He is wild high, he is wild low, he is wild inside, he is wild outside and you just can't hang around doing that.
1027
01:21:11,500 --> 01:21:15,500
So the hook is in and Downing is coming out and Pete Mickelson will be picking up for him.
1028
01:21:15,500 --> 01:21:17,500
And that's a great spot to get Mickelson.
1029
01:21:17,500 --> 01:21:21,500
The base is loaded, nobody out and Ernie Banks will be the batter.
1030
01:21:21,500 --> 01:21:25,500
But Pete is trying to put the reins to a runaway cub.
1031
01:21:25,500 --> 01:21:28,500
They won last night, they're leading today.
1032
01:21:28,500 --> 01:21:32,500
And so the Giants and the Dodgers had their big two game series.
1033
01:21:32,500 --> 01:21:36,500
Each club no doubt looking forward to the weekend series.
1034
01:21:36,500 --> 01:21:40,500
And each club paying a price and Downing comes out.
1035
01:21:40,500 --> 01:21:48,500
Wow who has hit sensational ball in his last seven games lost his control and comes out in the sixth inning.
1036
01:21:48,500 --> 01:21:50,500
He can't win, he can only lose.
1037
01:21:50,500 --> 01:21:53,500
Or have nothing to do with it depending upon the Dodger hitters against Pappas.
1038
01:21:53,500 --> 01:21:57,500
And depending upon how Mickelson can do in quieting Chicago.
1039
01:21:57,500 --> 01:21:59,500
We've got some time, let's spend it with Jerry.
1040
01:21:59,500 --> 01:22:04,500
Alright Vinnie on the scoreboard, Houston beat San Francisco today 18 to 4.
1041
01:22:04,500 --> 01:22:06,500
They have won 6 straight and 9 out of 10.
1042
01:22:06,500 --> 01:22:08,500
The Giants have lost 7 out of 10.
1043
01:22:08,500 --> 01:22:12,500
Duker the winner, Ray relieved in the sixth inning after they piled up the big lead.
1044
01:22:12,500 --> 01:22:15,500
They scored 10 runs in the fourth inning.
1045
01:22:15,500 --> 01:22:19,500
Stone was the loser, relieved by Robertson, Carruthers, Bryant and McMahon.
1046
01:22:19,500 --> 01:22:22,500
Cincinnati with a five game losing streak going.
1047
01:22:22,500 --> 01:22:28,500
Opened up on a bad note as Pittsburgh scored five in the first inning and lead them 5 to nothing.
1048
01:22:28,500 --> 01:22:33,500
That's Nolan for Cincinnati and Johnson for Pittsburgh.
1049
01:22:33,500 --> 01:22:36,500
Montreal over New York 12 to 7 in the day game.
1050
01:22:36,500 --> 01:22:38,500
The Mets now have lost 7 out of 8.
1051
01:22:38,500 --> 01:22:40,500
Morton was the winner and Williams the loser.
1052
01:22:40,500 --> 01:22:42,500
And Morton had a home run his first of the year.
1053
01:22:42,500 --> 01:22:46,500
Philadelphia leads Atlanta 1 to nothing at the end of an inning and a half.
1054
01:22:46,500 --> 01:22:49,500
St. Louis at San Diego a little later, Gibson and Kirby.
1055
01:22:49,500 --> 01:22:55,500
In the American League the Senators and Baltimore no score at the end of two innings of play.
1056
01:22:55,500 --> 01:23:00,500
And Boston leads over Cleveland in the first game 4 to nothing.
1057
01:23:00,500 --> 01:23:04,500
Cleveland leads the second game 4 to 1 in the first inning.
1058
01:23:04,500 --> 01:23:11,500
New York Detroit later, Oakland Chicago later, Kansas City Milwaukee later and California Minnesota also later.
1059
01:23:11,500 --> 01:23:13,500
All right let's go back to the action here and here's Vinnie.
1060
01:23:13,500 --> 01:23:18,500
All right Jerry and Leo D'Orocia now smelling a chance for a big inning has decided to go for broke.
1061
01:23:18,500 --> 01:23:24,500
He has lifted Ernie Banks and Billy Williams will hit with the bases loaded and nobody out.
1062
01:23:24,500 --> 01:23:29,500
That is a considerable improvement for the Chicago picture in many ways.
1063
01:23:29,500 --> 01:23:33,500
First of all Williams is hitting almost 200 points higher than Banks.
1064
01:23:33,500 --> 01:23:41,500
Secondly Williams is a left handed batter against Mickelson and thirdly Williams runs so much better than Banks on the bad knees.
1065
01:23:41,500 --> 01:23:45,500
So the situation has gotten tougher now that Mickelson has been brought in.
1066
01:23:45,500 --> 01:23:48,500
He gets Williams.
1067
01:23:48,500 --> 01:23:53,500
So Billy who was to rest the first game comes up now with a chance to break it wide open.
1068
01:23:53,500 --> 01:23:55,500
The clubs are leading 3 to 1.
1069
01:23:55,500 --> 01:23:58,500
Duke sends in a lengthy conversation with Pete Mickelson.
1070
01:23:58,500 --> 01:24:06,500
Downing with five innings plus is charged with at least three runs, a half a dozen hits, four walks and four strikeouts.
1071
01:24:06,500 --> 01:24:15,500
And oddly enough his troubles should come in the sixth inning right after he finished the fifth striking out the last two batters that he faced.
1072
01:24:15,500 --> 01:24:19,500
Now here's Billy Williams with 50 runs batted in.
1073
01:24:19,500 --> 01:24:23,500
Mickelson out of a stretch and a sinker is grounded to the feeder.
1074
01:24:23,500 --> 01:24:27,500
He goes to Wills and he has no further play.
1075
01:24:27,500 --> 01:24:35,500
In fact Davis went in high to first base and I think Wills right arm hit Davis so he was unable to throw it all.
1076
01:24:35,500 --> 01:24:52,500
So it's only a fours play, one out, four to one Chicago and the batter is Chris Canizel.
1077
01:24:52,500 --> 01:24:56,500
That run of course is charged to Downing.
1078
01:24:56,500 --> 01:25:00,500
Canizel with Cleo James at third.
1079
01:25:00,500 --> 01:25:04,500
Canizel is always a risk as far as hitting into a double play.
1080
01:25:04,500 --> 01:25:10,500
With James at third a fast man the Dodgers have to worry about a possible squeeze.
1081
01:25:10,500 --> 01:25:14,500
Last night in a similar situation in the fifth inning Canizel hit into a double play.
1082
01:25:14,500 --> 01:25:19,500
Mickelson delivers, Chris hits a ground ball back a second, backhand into the feeder over to Wills.
1083
01:25:19,500 --> 01:25:35,500
The fourth third double play.
1084
01:25:35,500 --> 01:25:37,500
Boy that was an outstanding double play.
1085
01:25:37,500 --> 01:25:39,500
I wish you had that on film to look at all winter.
1086
01:25:39,500 --> 01:25:43,500
The feeder backhanding the ball on the dead run behind second,
1087
01:25:43,500 --> 01:25:49,500
flipped to Wills from a full turn and fired to first to double up Canizel who was hit by lightning again.
1088
01:25:49,500 --> 01:25:51,500
The Dodgers get out of it cheaply enough.
1089
01:25:51,500 --> 01:25:55,500
Four runs for the Cubbies on three hits.
1090
01:25:55,500 --> 01:26:00,500
One left and at the end of five and a half comes four Dodgers won.
1091
01:26:00,500 --> 01:26:03,500
For the Cubs they make several changes now.
1092
01:26:03,500 --> 01:26:05,500
Billy Williams had hit for Banks.
1093
01:26:05,500 --> 01:26:10,500
Jim Hickman who started the game in right field takes over at first base.
1094
01:26:10,500 --> 01:26:15,500
Paul Popovich who ran for Ron Santo stays in at third.
1095
01:26:15,500 --> 01:26:19,500
And Johnny Callison comes off the bench and goes into right field.
1096
01:26:19,500 --> 01:26:24,500
So the Cubs defensively have an infield of Hickman and Becker, Kessinger and Popovich.
1097
01:26:24,500 --> 01:26:29,500
An outfield of James Davis and Callison and a battery of Pappas and Canizel.
1098
01:26:29,500 --> 01:26:32,500
So it is four to one Chicago.
1099
01:26:32,500 --> 01:26:37,500
And the Dodgers limited to only two hits through five innings have got to go to the Wolfs or else.
1100
01:26:37,500 --> 01:26:42,500
And it will be Willie Crawford to start it off.
1101
01:26:42,500 --> 01:26:48,500
Crawford fouled out and then lost a hit on a fine catch by center fielder Brock Davidson.
1102
01:26:48,500 --> 01:26:55,500
Willie fouled the first one away on one.
1103
01:26:55,500 --> 01:27:03,500
The ball wedging into the backstop screen and the ball boy hands it to a youngster who couldn't get it out.
1104
01:27:03,500 --> 01:27:06,500
Much to the delight of the crowd on one account.
1105
01:27:06,500 --> 01:27:09,500
Pappas into the windup, back he comes, change it off the plate.
1106
01:27:09,500 --> 01:27:13,500
A high chopper to Becker, Glenn in a hurry, throws in a dirt dugout by Hickman.
1107
01:27:13,500 --> 01:27:18,500
Good play. And Crawford is retired one away.
1108
01:27:18,500 --> 01:27:28,500
Willie Davis flied to center and fouled out. He's 0 for 2.
1109
01:27:28,500 --> 01:27:31,500
Bottom of the sixth inning of the first game.
1110
01:27:31,500 --> 01:27:36,500
The club's four run, six hits. Three run homerun by Jim Hickman has been a big blow.
1111
01:27:36,500 --> 01:27:42,500
The Dodgers just one run, two hits. They have not hit the ball hard against Pappas at all.
1112
01:27:42,500 --> 01:27:48,500
Milk ready and delivers. Fastball popped up and it'll be the shortstop, Kessinger, going out on the rim.
1113
01:27:48,500 --> 01:27:51,500
He makes it look easy. Two away.
1114
01:27:51,500 --> 01:27:56,500
So the Dodgers had two base hits for a run in the fourth inning.
1115
01:27:56,500 --> 01:27:58,500
And that's the only sound they've made so far.
1116
01:27:58,500 --> 01:28:06,500
Richie Allen coming out. Richie walked and singled a right to get the first hit off Pappas.
1117
01:28:06,500 --> 01:28:14,500
Sims base hit the right, scored the only Dodger run.
1118
01:28:14,500 --> 01:28:18,500
Milt has a shutout this year. He is 8 and 8 with the league.
1119
01:28:18,500 --> 01:28:21,500
He has a decision for every game he started, like Ferguson Jenkins.
1120
01:28:21,500 --> 01:28:24,500
Breaking ball is strike to Richie on one.
1121
01:28:24,500 --> 01:28:34,500
His ERA is four and he is leading by three.
1122
01:28:34,500 --> 01:28:38,500
Two outs, sixth inning, 4-1 Chicago.
1123
01:28:38,500 --> 01:28:40,500
Pappas ready in the strike one pitch.
1124
01:28:40,500 --> 01:28:45,500
Fastball inside, driving Allen away, one and one.
1125
01:28:45,500 --> 01:28:48,500
Well, only in the bottom of the sixth.
1126
01:28:48,500 --> 01:28:51,500
The first game of a Twilight Night doubleheader.
1127
01:28:51,500 --> 01:28:57,500
Pappas who works quickly comes back one-one and missed inside, ball two.
1128
01:28:57,500 --> 01:29:00,500
Two and one, a counter to Richie.
1129
01:29:00,500 --> 01:29:03,500
Allen one for one, hitting about 270 as he stands at the plate.
1130
01:29:03,500 --> 01:29:05,500
His highest average for the year.
1131
01:29:05,500 --> 01:29:10,500
Two-one pitch to Richie, swung on and missed strike two.
1132
01:29:10,500 --> 01:29:14,500
Allen's base hit in the fourth was his 76.
1133
01:29:14,500 --> 01:29:20,500
A rather familiar number in these parts.
1134
01:29:20,500 --> 01:29:25,500
The two-two pitch to Richie, swung on and missed and down he goes.
1135
01:29:25,500 --> 01:29:29,500
So Pappas getting tougher. He retires seven straight and at the end of six,
1136
01:29:29,500 --> 01:29:31,500
comes four, Dodgers one.
1137
01:29:31,500 --> 01:29:32,500
Cases, maps?
1138
01:29:32,500 --> 01:29:33,500
They're all in the car, George.
1139
01:29:33,500 --> 01:29:37,500
Well, it's been a great vacation so far. By tonight we'll be in the...
1140
01:29:37,500 --> 01:29:39,500
What's the matter, George?
1141
01:29:39,500 --> 01:29:41,500
The car won't start. It won't even turn over.
1142
01:29:41,500 --> 01:29:45,500
Oh, now what? At home I could just call Harry over at the Union 76 station.
1143
01:29:45,500 --> 01:29:49,500
I know Harry does a good job, but so far from home I don't know who to go to.
1144
01:29:49,500 --> 01:29:52,500
Nobody's got the old spirit anymore, Marge.
1145
01:29:52,500 --> 01:29:55,500
George, look up a Union 76 dealer in the directory.
1146
01:29:55,500 --> 01:30:00,500
I bet they're friendly even away from home.
1147
01:30:00,500 --> 01:30:03,500
You can rely on Union 76 when you're far from home.
1148
01:30:03,500 --> 01:30:08,500
Our dealers from coast to coast will do their best to solve your problem and get you going again.
1149
01:30:08,500 --> 01:30:11,500
And at Union 76 we try to make a smile standard equipment.
1150
01:30:11,500 --> 01:30:14,500
Marge, that Union 76 guy was friendly.
1151
01:30:14,500 --> 01:30:16,500
He told me what was wrong with the car over the phone.
1152
01:30:16,500 --> 01:30:18,500
It was nothing serious then?
1153
01:30:18,500 --> 01:30:21,500
Not really. I forgot to take it out of drive.
1154
01:30:21,500 --> 01:30:25,500
The spirit of 76 lives at Union Oil.
1155
01:30:25,500 --> 01:30:30,500
Through six innings, the Cubs four runs, six hits and no errors.
1156
01:30:30,500 --> 01:30:33,500
Dodgers one run, two hits and no errors.
1157
01:30:33,500 --> 01:30:38,500
It was scoreless for three. The Dodgers led one to nothing at the end of four, one to nothing at the end of five.
1158
01:30:38,500 --> 01:30:42,500
And then the Cubs picked up a big four in the sixth inning to chase Hal Downing.
1159
01:30:42,500 --> 01:30:45,500
Let's go to the seventh and for more play, here's Jerry.
1160
01:30:45,500 --> 01:30:49,500
All right Vinnie and Milt Papas will start it off. He has spied up and struck out in two tries.
1161
01:30:49,500 --> 01:30:54,500
And Pete Nicholson ready to go to work. Pete came in and did a great job to slow down the Cubs.
1162
01:30:54,500 --> 01:30:59,500
You get Williams on a forced play and Canazaro on a double play on a great play by Jimmy LaFever.
1163
01:30:59,500 --> 01:31:03,500
And now he starts out with Papas the pitcher.
1164
01:31:03,500 --> 01:31:06,500
So Pete getting set to go here.
1165
01:31:06,500 --> 01:31:09,500
Cubs leading four to one. Now the wind up in the pitch on the way to Milt.
1166
01:31:09,500 --> 01:31:14,500
Bounce wide a third and over Allen on into left field. It'll be a base hit for Papas.
1167
01:31:14,500 --> 01:31:18,500
Allen went to his left and the ball took a big high hop over his left shoulder.
1168
01:31:18,500 --> 01:31:23,500
So Papas singles to left field. Hit number seven and here is Kessinger coming up.
1169
01:31:23,500 --> 01:31:27,500
He has spied out, struck out and walked. And the walk started the sixth inning.
1170
01:31:27,500 --> 01:31:30,500
Troubles of Al Downing.
1171
01:31:30,500 --> 01:31:37,500
All right Kessinger coming on with Beckert and then Hickman to follow.
1172
01:31:37,500 --> 01:31:40,500
Second game of the series. First game of the doubleheader.
1173
01:31:40,500 --> 01:31:45,500
Second game tonight will be Juan Pizarro and Doyle Alexander.
1174
01:31:45,500 --> 01:31:48,500
Here's the look now and they check on the pitch.
1175
01:31:48,500 --> 01:31:52,500
Taking low for a ball. One ball no strikes.
1176
01:31:52,500 --> 01:31:55,500
One at all.
1177
01:32:03,500 --> 01:32:06,500
One ball on no strike count.
1178
01:32:06,500 --> 01:32:10,500
Kessinger turns around out of back on the left side with Mickelson going.
1179
01:32:10,500 --> 01:32:17,500
Now the pitch. They're looking for the but it's first base where Parker Fields goes to second base in time and there's no play at first.
1180
01:32:17,500 --> 01:32:22,500
So they get the force out on the front. Parker down to Wills.
1181
01:32:22,500 --> 01:32:27,500
And that'll bring on Glenn Beckert. Had a hit and run single to left field in the sixth inning.
1182
01:32:27,500 --> 01:32:30,500
And that set it up for Jim Hickman's home run.
1183
01:32:30,500 --> 01:32:32,500
Beckert.
1184
01:32:32,500 --> 01:32:40,500
Beckert the batter one home run 22 RBI's and a three forty eight batting average.
1185
01:32:40,500 --> 01:32:44,500
One out one on.
1186
01:32:44,500 --> 01:32:49,500
Papa single was forced on Kessinger's bunt.
1187
01:32:49,500 --> 01:32:51,500
Now Mickelson ready to go again.
1188
01:32:51,500 --> 01:32:55,500
Beckert right hand batter into Goodman he's third in the league in hitting with his three forty eight average.
1189
01:32:55,500 --> 01:32:58,500
He's right behind Willie Davis.
1190
01:32:58,500 --> 01:33:00,500
Willie at three fifty starting tonight.
1191
01:33:00,500 --> 01:33:04,500
He is over three and Beckert is one for three.
1192
01:33:04,500 --> 01:33:11,500
Have a look in the pitch strike call on the inside corner on one.
1193
01:33:11,500 --> 01:33:17,500
Beckert has a look at third base coach peanuts Lowry.
1194
01:33:17,500 --> 01:33:23,500
Oh on the count with one away Cubs leading four to one were in the top of the seventh inning first game of the doubleheader.
1195
01:33:23,500 --> 01:33:26,500
Now the pitch on the way breaking ball low.
1196
01:33:26,500 --> 01:33:37,500
One ball one strike out on deck Jim Hickman is now playing first base for the Cubs.
1197
01:33:37,500 --> 01:33:40,500
One on one.
1198
01:33:40,500 --> 01:33:47,500
Pete said again the look is a pop up foul behind the plate Sims digging back for it.
1199
01:33:47,500 --> 01:33:51,500
This is going to be out of play over the backstop.
1200
01:33:51,500 --> 01:33:57,500
Strike two ball one to Glenn Beckett.
1201
01:33:57,500 --> 01:34:01,500
The Cubs will make their final visit to Dodger Stadium here tomorrow night.
1202
01:34:01,500 --> 01:34:08,500
It'll be our last game of the Cubs this year.
1203
01:34:08,500 --> 01:34:15,500
One ball two strikes.
1204
01:34:15,500 --> 01:34:17,500
Now again Beckert waiting.
1205
01:34:17,500 --> 01:34:26,500
Kessinger a short lead away from Parker as Mickelson looks down and now Beckert backs up.
1206
01:34:26,500 --> 01:34:28,500
Once again Beckert and they're ready to go.
1207
01:34:28,500 --> 01:34:30,500
Mickelson out of a stretch in the one two pitch.
1208
01:34:30,500 --> 01:34:37,500
Ground ball to third Allen has it down to second base one and no other play as Kessinger takes the fever out.
1209
01:34:37,500 --> 01:34:42,500
The rolling slide in there and Jimmy goes down in the dirt and had no chance to make a play.
1210
01:34:42,500 --> 01:34:47,500
So a force play five to four third to second two away and here's Hickman.
1211
01:34:47,500 --> 01:34:50,500
Hickman with a home run deep to left field.
1212
01:34:50,500 --> 01:34:52,500
His fourteenth of the year.
1213
01:34:52,500 --> 01:34:54,500
He has driven him three of the Cubs runs.
1214
01:34:54,500 --> 01:34:56,500
He has two hits.
1215
01:34:56,500 --> 01:35:00,500
Jim now playing first base batting average two twenty eight.
1216
01:35:00,500 --> 01:35:08,500
He has thirteen fourteen home runs and thirty seven runs batted in.
1217
01:35:08,500 --> 01:35:10,500
Two outs man on first base Beckert.
1218
01:35:10,500 --> 01:35:14,500
Cubs four Dodgers one seventh inning.
1219
01:35:14,500 --> 01:35:16,500
Mickelson set again in the pitch.
1220
01:35:16,500 --> 01:35:18,500
In for a strike.
1221
01:35:18,500 --> 01:35:19,500
Good synchro for the knees.
1222
01:35:19,500 --> 01:35:25,500
Oh and one.
1223
01:35:25,500 --> 01:35:26,500
Strike one count.
1224
01:35:26,500 --> 01:35:31,500
Hickman big strong right hand batter.
1225
01:35:31,500 --> 01:35:33,500
Now again Mickelson ready.
1226
01:35:33,500 --> 01:35:38,500
Backs off.
1227
01:35:38,500 --> 01:35:43,500
He looks at first Becker to short lead now he's over there again on the pitch.
1228
01:35:43,500 --> 01:35:55,500
Low inside a throw to first base Becker comes back in head first Sims firing down to Parker not in time.
1229
01:35:55,500 --> 01:36:05,500
One ball one strike two outs.
1230
01:36:05,500 --> 01:36:11,500
Mickelson ready again in the pitch palm ball is in there for a strike one and two.
1231
01:36:11,500 --> 01:36:26,500
He threw up that slow in that time and Hickman let it go by a ball and two strikes to Jim.
1232
01:36:26,500 --> 01:36:28,500
I had one ball and two strikes.
1233
01:36:28,500 --> 01:36:30,500
Here's the look again in the pitch on the way.
1234
01:36:30,500 --> 01:36:34,500
Fly ball to center field and Davis comes up makes the catch for the.
1235
01:36:34,500 --> 01:36:48,500
Hickman is out on a liner to center and the Cubs are retired in the seventh no runs a hit and one man left to score at the end of six and a half Cubs for the Dodgers one Schlitz Milwaukee in the world.
1236
01:37:04,500 --> 01:37:14,500
You only live once that's what makes you live hard because you don't get a second chance.
1237
01:37:14,500 --> 01:37:43,500
I settled the second best even the beer you drink when you're out of schlitz you're out of.
1238
01:37:43,500 --> 01:38:03,500
The Dodgers come on in the bottom of the seventh inning outstanding for the seventh inning stretch Parker Sims LaFever against Milk Pappas milk trying to get his ninth one of the year and his tenth lifetime victory against the Dodgers Parker has been on on the force and bounced out to the pitcher.
1239
01:38:03,500 --> 01:38:05,500
Here's the pitch on the way.
1240
01:38:05,500 --> 01:38:16,500
Bow back over the screen strike one for the one the Cubs lead they exploded for four in the sixth inning after the Dodgers had scored one of the fourth.
1241
01:38:16,500 --> 01:38:32,500
Pappas the starter still in their fourth Chicago downing was replaced by Mickelson in the six Parker takes a strike at the outside corner.
1242
01:38:32,500 --> 01:38:37,500
Going to the count the West hitting two ninety four.
1243
01:38:37,500 --> 01:38:52,500
Now the pitch ground ball to the left side it's short backhanded by Kessinger long throw in time and Parker's got good play by shortstop Don Kessinger that brings on Duke Sims who has a single to drive in the only Dodger run.
1244
01:38:52,500 --> 01:39:04,500
Then singled in the fourth inning to score Parker from second base.
1245
01:39:04,500 --> 01:39:06,500
All right Sims at bat.
1246
01:39:06,500 --> 01:39:14,500
Pappas now has run his string to eight retired in a row since Sims got the base hit in the fourth inning.
1247
01:39:14,500 --> 01:39:19,500
So milk while he was with Atlanta had a lot of trouble completing ballgames.
1248
01:39:19,500 --> 01:39:22,500
And he had almost gained the reputation of being a five inning pitcher.
1249
01:39:22,500 --> 01:39:25,500
But this year he has completed seven games with the Cubs.
1250
01:39:25,500 --> 01:39:27,500
This is his 17th strike.
1251
01:39:27,500 --> 01:39:31,500
He's completed a lot of a swing and a miss strike one.
1252
01:39:31,500 --> 01:39:36,500
Mild always said they didn't have much faith in him in Atlanta and they took him out too soon.
1253
01:39:36,500 --> 01:39:42,500
He went to Chicago last year and he's turned in to be quite a pitcher which he was in the American League.
1254
01:39:42,500 --> 01:39:52,500
0-1 count Sims backs out on deck with fever and then Buckner.
1255
01:39:52,500 --> 01:39:58,500
Now the wind up and down comes the pitch foul back over the screen strike two.
1256
01:39:58,500 --> 01:40:09,500
Milk Pappas come right under.
1257
01:40:09,500 --> 01:40:13,500
0-1 count Duke Sims waiting.
1258
01:40:13,500 --> 01:40:15,500
The Dodgers held to just two hits.
1259
01:40:15,500 --> 01:40:19,500
They have a team batting average of 272.
1260
01:40:19,500 --> 01:40:22,500
One point ahead of the Cubs.
1261
01:40:22,500 --> 01:40:31,500
Now Pappas delivers off speed low for a ball.
1262
01:40:31,500 --> 01:40:33,500
One ball two strikes to Duke.
1263
01:40:33,500 --> 01:40:37,500
The Dodgers had 11 hits last night but could score only one run.
1264
01:40:37,500 --> 01:40:41,500
So they have the same total of runs scored on only two hits tonight.
1265
01:40:41,500 --> 01:40:42,500
One and two.
1266
01:40:42,500 --> 01:40:46,500
Now Pappas ready delivers inside around the knees ball two and it's two and two.
1267
01:40:46,500 --> 01:40:47,500
Pappas has walked two.
1268
01:40:47,500 --> 01:40:49,500
He has struck out three.
1269
01:40:49,500 --> 01:40:54,500
He has struck out LaFever twice.
1270
01:40:54,500 --> 01:40:55,500
Two and two.
1271
01:40:55,500 --> 01:41:00,500
Sims out for a handful of dirt.
1272
01:41:00,500 --> 01:41:06,500
Nice crowd on hand but still plenty of good seats available here if you'd like to come out and see the second game and the remainder of this first one.
1273
01:41:06,500 --> 01:41:07,500
You have a lot of time.
1274
01:41:07,500 --> 01:41:08,500
Here's the two two pitch.
1275
01:41:08,500 --> 01:41:23,500
Duke pops it up foul out of play and the count stays two and two.
1276
01:41:23,500 --> 01:41:26,500
Two balls and two strikes.
1277
01:41:26,500 --> 01:41:31,500
Sims hitting 268 with two home runs and 14 runs batted in.
1278
01:41:31,500 --> 01:41:35,500
Now Pappas checking signs again.
1279
01:41:35,500 --> 01:41:39,500
Right hander ready and the two two pitch off speed foul back to the screen.
1280
01:41:39,500 --> 01:41:50,500
The top and comes on over into the crowd.
1281
01:41:50,500 --> 01:41:56,500
So it's two and two and Sims again backs away as Pappas gets a new ball to work with.
1282
01:41:56,500 --> 01:41:59,500
LaFever on deck then Buckner here in the seventh.
1283
01:41:59,500 --> 01:42:03,500
Cubs lead four to one.
1284
01:42:03,500 --> 01:42:09,500
Again the wind up in the pitch on the way inside ball three breaking pitch into the knees.
1285
01:42:09,500 --> 01:42:13,500
Three and two to Duke Sims.
1286
01:42:13,500 --> 01:42:24,500
Cubs won last night behind Ferguson Jenkins trying to make a two in a row here in this one.
1287
01:42:24,500 --> 01:42:27,500
Three balls two strikes Sims waiting.
1288
01:42:27,500 --> 01:42:28,500
Now the pitch.
1289
01:42:28,500 --> 01:42:34,500
Ground ball to first base Picklin there up with it and underhand to Pappas covering in time for the second out.
1290
01:42:34,500 --> 01:42:38,500
The Sims out Picklin to Pappas two down and here's LaFever.
1291
01:42:38,500 --> 01:42:44,500
Jimmy has struck out twice tonight hitting 275 with eight home runs and 42 runs batted in.
1292
01:42:44,500 --> 01:42:52,500
Buckner on deck.
1293
01:42:52,500 --> 01:43:05,500
Bobby O'Brien throwing in the Dodger bullpen.
1294
01:43:05,500 --> 01:43:08,500
Two outs LaFever waits here's the pitch from Pappas.
1295
01:43:08,500 --> 01:43:16,500
Little low with a change one ball and no strikes Billy Buckner on deck.
1296
01:43:16,500 --> 01:43:22,500
LaFever backs out for a moment now goes in there again and Pappas checks his signs he is two and one with the Dodgers this year.
1297
01:43:22,500 --> 01:43:24,500
There's a ground ball to the right side.
1298
01:43:24,500 --> 01:43:32,500
Beckered up with it on a big bounce throws the first from the Dodgers go out one two three and Pappas now retired ten in a row and the score at the end of seven.
1299
01:43:32,500 --> 01:43:35,500
Cubs four and the Dodgers have one.
1300
01:43:35,500 --> 01:43:43,500
Talking with Farmer John recently he made an interesting point he mentioned that when something is enjoyable like baseball it's enjoyable anytime day or night.
1301
01:43:43,500 --> 01:43:50,500
And then he added just about everyone enjoys bacon for breakfast so why don't more people serve it for dinner now and then.
1302
01:43:50,500 --> 01:43:57,500
Well his idea makes sense no other meat is so rich in flavor and of course no other bacon can match the flavor of Farmer John.
1303
01:43:57,500 --> 01:44:05,500
The secret is in the old time western way he smokes his bacon over native western wood to give it a hearty husky western flavor all its own.
1304
01:44:05,500 --> 01:44:16,500
Well that's why so little stretches such a long way to make it economical meat to serve and Farmer John bacon is extra lean too providing plenty of protein as well as an abundance of food energy.
1305
01:44:16,500 --> 01:44:21,500
So why not go along with Farmer John and try his bacon for dinner one of these evenings.
1306
01:44:21,500 --> 01:44:25,500
Farmer John Bacon gold medal winner at the California State Fair.
1307
01:44:25,500 --> 01:44:33,500
It's the eastern most in quality and the western most in flavor and remember enjoyable anytime.
1308
01:44:33,500 --> 01:44:46,500
Here's Danny Goodman's fine Dodger souvenir bargain package all for two dollars including mailing a Dodger yearbook a baseball digest 20 Dodger player pictures a Dodger scarf and the pennants of all 12 National League clubs.
1309
01:44:46,500 --> 01:44:51,500
Send your name and address and two dollars to Danny Goodman Dodger Stadium Los Angeles 9 0 0 12.
1310
01:44:51,500 --> 01:44:54,500
OK to the eighth inning more play here's Ben.
1311
01:44:54,500 --> 01:45:00,500
All right Jerry and just as the sunlight is starting to vanish so the outs are starting to go with it here at Dodger Stadium.
1312
01:45:00,500 --> 01:45:05,500
They suddenly find themselves in the eighth inning and the Cubs are sitting atop a four to one lead.
1313
01:45:05,500 --> 01:45:10,500
More than that it has been a strong performance by Milt Pappas.
1314
01:45:10,500 --> 01:45:19,500
He has retired the last 10 in a row and he's allowed only two hits so that for one lead the big one pop of it rolls one foul.
1315
01:45:19,500 --> 01:45:23,500
Nice play by Joey Amalfatano the pride of San Pedro coaching at first.
1316
01:45:23,500 --> 01:45:47,500
Oh and one account Papa bitch ran for Santo Sato and an attempted pick off play got back to second base in the sixth inning and apparently hurt his right leg and he's out of there and Papa bitch finishing up line drive leaping catch by Parker.
1317
01:45:47,500 --> 01:46:02,500
Parker went as high as he possibly can jump and then extended his right arm as far as it'll go and he takes a base hit away from Paul Papa there and the batter Cleo James James is one for two he's single to right.
1318
01:46:02,500 --> 01:46:08,500
Cleo one for one.
1319
01:46:08,500 --> 01:46:14,500
Right hand batter Mickelson delivers a sinker bonded foul behind the plate on one.
1320
01:46:14,500 --> 01:46:22,500
This is apparently Mickelson's last inning of work he figures to come out for a hitter in the eight.
1321
01:46:22,500 --> 01:46:30,500
Al Downing led one to nothing through five innings and then he lost his control in the six he just couldn't get a strike and when he got the ball over the plate the Cubs hit it.
1322
01:46:30,500 --> 01:46:40,500
The big blow a three run home run by Jim Hickman strike one pitch on the hands and a leaping catch by wheels of a little loopy that thing wasn't hit hard.
1323
01:46:40,500 --> 01:46:51,500
Just a little dying quail and wheels went up and got it to down and Brock Davis the batter.
1324
01:46:51,500 --> 01:46:57,500
To our top of the eight Cubs for Dodgers one.
1325
01:46:57,500 --> 01:47:03,500
Brock Davis left hand hitting center fielder single grounded out and walk he's one for two.
1326
01:47:03,500 --> 01:47:11,500
When the Dodgers bad in the bottom half they have Buckner then Mickelson spot and will the pitch outside ball one.
1327
01:47:11,500 --> 01:47:23,500
The Giants lost the Dodgers are losing and the club that can profit is Houston the one oh pitch on the way ground ball a one hopper to Parker he walks that thing to the bag and the Cubs are gone in the eighth.
1328
01:47:23,500 --> 01:47:27,500
The end of seven and a half Cubs for Dodgers one.
1329
01:47:27,500 --> 01:47:33,500
Would you like to know how to get the best deal on a new or used car buy from the dealer with the best service department.
1330
01:47:33,500 --> 01:47:34,500
It's true.
1331
01:47:34,500 --> 01:47:44,500
Here's where a dealership can save you real money by doing a job right the first time and this is exactly why Don Sanderson Ford in Glendale is so popular with Valley residents.
1332
01:47:44,500 --> 01:47:56,500
They treat you right after the sale to remember this when you're shopping around that's Don Sanderson Ford 5300 Grand Avenue in Glendale where good service makes a great deal even better.
1333
01:47:56,500 --> 01:48:04,500
Alka Seltzer brings you an Alka Seltzer story came to this little place waiters says try this you like it.
1334
01:48:04,500 --> 01:48:22,500
What's this try it you like it but what is try it you like it so I tried it thought I was going to die to Alka Seltzer for headache and acid indigestion no aspirin or antacid alone can possibly relieve you in as many ways as Alka Seltzer.
1335
01:48:22,500 --> 01:48:32,500
Alka Seltzer works try it you like it.
1336
01:48:32,500 --> 01:48:42,500
Bottom of the eighth inning here at Dodger Stadium and Mill Papas is sitting on top of a four to one lead the Dodgers will have Bill Buckner Tom Haller and Maury Wills.
1337
01:48:42,500 --> 01:48:59,500
Buckner suddenly finds himself locked in a small slump after picking up 12 hits in four starts he has turned around to go 0 for 10.
1338
01:48:59,500 --> 01:49:15,500
The Buckner waiting at the plate and Papas was retired the last 10 in a row deals a strike here where he had looking for walks he has walked to the walk Alan in the second inning and a two hour walk to Wills in the third.
1339
01:49:15,500 --> 01:49:29,500
Now milk strike one pitch outside and high one ball one strike the second game one for Zorro and Doyle Alexander.
1340
01:49:29,500 --> 01:49:45,500
Papas into the wind up and the 1 1 pitch on the way is whacked into right field base hit the Buckner Bill tries to lead the Dodgers back and that'll bring up Tom Haller.
1341
01:49:45,500 --> 01:49:52,500
That is only the third Dodger hit so they have been thoroughly muffled by Papas.
1342
01:49:52,500 --> 01:49:56,500
Jim Hickman goes to the mound to talk to milk.
1343
01:49:56,500 --> 01:50:03,500
Tom Haller hitting 234.
1344
01:50:03,500 --> 01:50:11,500
Now is to parade.
1345
01:50:11,500 --> 01:50:15,500
Tom Haller at the plate Buckner not held on by Hickman he's directly back of him.
1346
01:50:15,500 --> 01:50:26,500
Papas at the belt and delivers and is a broken background ball to Hickman he goes to Kessinger back to Hickman double play.
1347
01:50:26,500 --> 01:50:34,500
So how it breaks his bat hits into a double play and we have two down in the eighth inning.
1348
01:50:34,500 --> 01:50:37,500
Three six three double play.
1349
01:50:37,500 --> 01:50:43,500
And the batter is Maury will.
1350
01:50:43,500 --> 01:50:47,500
Maury wills is 0 for 2 with a walk.
1351
01:50:47,500 --> 01:50:52,500
He grounded out and fly to left plus the walk and a stolen base.
1352
01:50:52,500 --> 01:50:58,500
The Dodgers led 1 nothing into the sixth inning and then all of a sudden downing just could not find the strike zone.
1353
01:50:58,500 --> 01:51:02,500
He missed in four different directions on Kessinger.
1354
01:51:02,500 --> 01:51:09,500
Then on the first pitch they played hit and run with Becker and he singles and then Hickman walked up and hit one into the Dodger bullpen.
1355
01:51:09,500 --> 01:51:20,500
Will takes high ball on Sandoz single there was a walk by James a walk to Davis and finally they had to bring in Mickelson to restore some water of course played at the fourth run over.
1356
01:51:20,500 --> 01:51:26,500
And can a zero ended it by hitting into a double play that was really something to see strike to Wilson to count one and one.
1357
01:51:26,500 --> 01:51:33,500
But the Dodger bats have really been locked up in cold storage by Mill Pappas.
1358
01:51:33,500 --> 01:51:39,500
One one pitch will take line inside both of.
1359
01:51:39,500 --> 01:51:46,500
Two and one to Maury wills two out on the eighth inning four to one Chicago.
1360
01:51:46,500 --> 01:51:49,500
Milk checking right hand already and here he comes.
1361
01:51:49,500 --> 01:51:55,500
It's a left field but that's exactly where James is to take it to the out and the Dodgers are gone quickly in the eighth.
1362
01:51:55,500 --> 01:52:02,500
No runs are hit nobody left at the end of eight Chicago for Dodgers one.
1363
01:52:02,500 --> 01:52:06,500
One.
1364
01:54:02,500 --> 01:54:07,500

.
1389
01:56:07,500 --> 01:56:11,500
I took it to a Union 76 certified serviceman and he had it in shape at no time.
1390
01:56:11,500 --> 01:56:12,500
And look what he gave me.
1391
01:56:12,500 --> 01:56:13,500
What?
1392
01:56:13,500 --> 01:56:14,500
Tissues.
1393
01:56:14,500 --> 01:56:21,500
The spirit of 76 lives at Union Oil.
1394
01:56:21,500 --> 01:56:25,500
Before we go to the ninth with the cops leading four to one, let's pause for station identification.
1395
01:56:25,500 --> 01:56:27,500
This is the Los Angeles Dodgers Radio Network.
1396
01:56:27,500 --> 01:56:41,500
The Good Son. K-T-A-R Phoenix.
1397
01:56:41,500 --> 01:56:43,500
Ninth inning, four to one Chicago.
1398
01:56:43,500 --> 01:56:46,500
Bobby O'Brien, who was given a rather quick exit last night.
1399
01:56:46,500 --> 01:56:48,500
He went three in the third innings.
1400
01:56:48,500 --> 01:56:53,500
Although the three runs charged to him and the ultimate defeat, the runs were unearned.
1401
01:56:53,500 --> 01:56:58,500
O'Brien is two and two with the league, all in one with the Cubs.
1402
01:56:58,500 --> 01:57:02,500
Bobby is in his 14th game, his ninth in relief.
1403
01:57:02,500 --> 01:57:05,500
He completed one game of shutout, you remember, against the Cardinals.
1404
01:57:05,500 --> 01:57:10,500
O'Brien pitching the ninth inning and Johnny Callison will start it off.
1405
01:57:10,500 --> 01:57:21,500
Then it'll be Chris Cannazero and Mill Papert.
1406
01:57:21,500 --> 01:57:26,500
Callison making his first appearance at the plate.
1407
01:57:26,500 --> 01:57:29,500
Johnny is hitting two 18.
1408
01:57:29,500 --> 01:57:32,500
Left hand hitting right fielder.
1409
01:57:32,500 --> 01:57:37,500
O'Brien into the windup and Bobby's first pitch is popped in the air to right field.
1410
01:57:37,500 --> 01:57:42,500
Buckner comes trotting in from shade to sunlight and back into shade again and makes the catch for the out.
1411
01:57:42,500 --> 01:57:45,500
They look like a chameleon changing colors out there.
1412
01:57:45,500 --> 01:57:47,500
One down.
1413
01:57:47,500 --> 01:57:53,500
Here's Chris Cannazero, hit into a fourth play, struck out and then hit one that should have been on film.
1414
01:57:53,500 --> 01:57:59,500
Up the middle, backhanded by LaFever who flipped to Wills who made a full turn on the bag and threw him out at first.
1415
01:57:59,500 --> 01:58:01,500
That was quite a double play.
1416
01:58:01,500 --> 01:58:05,500
Cannazero over three.
1417
01:58:05,500 --> 01:58:15,500
On deck, Mill Papert, who has had this ballgame very much in his hands ever since he got the four in the sixth inning.
1418
01:58:15,500 --> 01:58:19,500
The pitch to Cannazero outside, ball one, one and oh.
1419
01:58:19,500 --> 01:58:25,500
When the Dodgers bat in the bottom of the ninth they'll have Willie Crawford, Willie Davis and Richie Allen.
1420
01:58:25,500 --> 01:58:29,500
Here's the one-oh pitch on the way, fast ball low, ball two.
1421
01:58:29,500 --> 01:58:32,500
Two and oh to Cannazero.
1422
01:58:32,500 --> 01:58:40,500
Giants lost, Dodgers are losing and the Astros are starting to believe in themselves.
1423
01:58:40,500 --> 01:58:43,500
If they ever had any doubts, the pitch is strike two and one.
1424
01:58:43,500 --> 01:58:54,500
Houston by beating the Giants are now seven back.
1425
01:58:54,500 --> 01:58:56,500
Here's the two-one pitch coming up.
1426
01:58:56,500 --> 01:59:02,500
Fast ball, belted to left field, back goes Crawford, a full turn to the warning track and this one's off the wall.
1427
01:59:02,500 --> 01:59:06,500
I think he turned the wrong way and Cannazero has a double.
1428
01:59:06,500 --> 01:59:13,500
Crawford, who plays a lot of right field, went one way and the ball went the other.
1429
01:59:13,500 --> 01:59:23,500
The Willys surrounded the fly ball double and with one out a good hitting pitcher coming up, Mill Papert.
1430
01:59:23,500 --> 01:59:35,500
Papert has fly to center, struck out and single, he's one for three.
1431
01:59:35,500 --> 01:59:42,500
Milk with seven hits this year, a runner at second, one out, ninth inning, four to one, Chicago.
1432
01:59:42,500 --> 01:59:44,500
First of two games, remember.
1433
01:59:44,500 --> 01:59:53,500
O'Brien at the belt and delivers, gets the inside corner for a strike, 0-1.
1434
01:59:53,500 --> 01:59:59,500
Joe Pepitone in uniform and in the dugout, Pep apparently will be in the second game.
1435
01:59:59,500 --> 02:00:22,500
The strike one pitch is a half swing, he held up on a pitch in the dirt, an account one and one.
1436
02:00:22,500 --> 02:00:29,500
One and one to Mill Papert.
1437
02:00:29,500 --> 02:00:31,500
O'Brien leans in to get a sign.
1438
02:00:31,500 --> 02:00:50,500
Now Bobby, set at the belt, a look back at second base at Cannazero, works a slow curve in there nicely for a strike one and two.
1439
02:00:50,500 --> 02:00:56,500
O'Brien set, Papert's waiting, one-two pitch, fast ball, swung on and missed, strike three.
1440
02:00:56,500 --> 02:01:01,500
So Papert strikes out, two down and the battle will be Don Kessinger.
1441
02:01:01,500 --> 02:01:06,500
Kessinger fly to right and struck out, walked and hit into a fourth play.
1442
02:01:06,500 --> 02:01:07,500
Don is 0 for three.
1443
02:01:07,500 --> 02:01:10,500
His walk in the sixth inning though was the tip off.
1444
02:01:10,500 --> 02:01:18,500
That's one downing through one low away, then high away, then low inside, then high inside.
1445
02:01:18,500 --> 02:01:20,500
That was the beginning of the end for Al.
1446
02:01:20,500 --> 02:01:28,500
He walked Kessinger on four and then the hit and run single by Beckard and the Cubs were off to the races.
1447
02:01:28,500 --> 02:01:33,500
Kessinger, good ball player, checks in at 289.
1448
02:01:33,500 --> 02:01:35,500
Batting right handed, he's a switch hitter.
1449
02:01:35,500 --> 02:01:46,500
O'Brien delivers, fast ball low, ball one.
1450
02:01:46,500 --> 02:01:50,500
Ninth inning, four to one, Chicago.
1451
02:01:50,500 --> 02:02:03,500
O'Brien a look back at second base, works Kessinger low, ball two, on deck, then Beckard.
1452
02:02:03,500 --> 02:02:10,500
Beckard is one for four.
1453
02:02:10,500 --> 02:02:18,500
O'Brien straightens up and the 2-0 pitch on the way, taken for a strike, 2-1.
1454
02:02:18,500 --> 02:02:21,500
Dodgers scored in the fourth inning.
1455
02:02:21,500 --> 02:02:23,500
The Cubs scored four times in the sixth.
1456
02:02:23,500 --> 02:02:30,500
The Dodgers have only three singles in eight innings against Pappas.
1457
02:02:30,500 --> 02:02:40,500
2-1 pitch, fast ball low, ball three, three and one.
1458
02:02:40,500 --> 02:02:44,500
Glenn Beckard waking his turn, he's hitting 348.
1459
02:02:44,500 --> 02:02:49,500
So you go from tough to tougher when you pitch to Kessinger followed by Beckard.
1460
02:02:49,500 --> 02:02:52,500
Three and one.
1461
02:02:52,500 --> 02:02:56,500
O'Brien a look at Canna's arrow, the pitch to Kessinger, line to right, Buckner comes up
1462
02:02:56,500 --> 02:03:04,500
and the ball sinks for a hit, then gets away from him, Canna's arrow scores 51-5-1 Chicago.
1463
02:03:04,500 --> 02:03:08,500
Buckner tried to make a do or die play but couldn't do it.
1464
02:03:08,500 --> 02:03:13,500
And the ball hit him on the left knee, I believe, yup, in watching him flex that left leg.
1465
02:03:13,500 --> 02:03:19,500
He tried to shoestring it and when he missed it hit him on the left kneecap.
1466
02:03:19,500 --> 02:03:27,500
So O'Brien gives up two hits and a run and the batter is Beckard.
1467
02:03:27,500 --> 02:03:34,500
Line to right, grounded out, single hit into a fourth play, he's one for four.
1468
02:03:34,500 --> 02:03:39,500
O'Brien at the bell and delivers and the fast ball's a strike, going one.
1469
02:03:39,500 --> 02:03:41,500
It is July the seventh.
1470
02:03:41,500 --> 02:03:46,500
The Dodgers are playing their 85th game and we've got a long way to go.
1471
02:03:46,500 --> 02:03:48,500
Boy, it's going to be something.
1472
02:03:48,500 --> 02:03:52,500
The strike one pitch to Beckard, slow curve, whacked into left field.
1473
02:03:52,500 --> 02:03:54,500
You could have hung your hat on that one.
1474
02:03:54,500 --> 02:03:58,500
And Crawford on a one-hopper gets it back into Wills.
1475
02:03:58,500 --> 02:04:08,500
So O'Brien hangs one to Beckard, now brings up Jim Hickman.
1476
02:04:08,500 --> 02:04:13,500
So Pappas, who appeared to have this thing stuffed in his hip pocket anyway, is now given more.
1477
02:04:13,500 --> 02:04:17,500
Five and ten for him, five runs, ten hits.
1478
02:04:17,500 --> 02:04:22,500
And here is Jim Hickman who put the slug on downing in the sixth inning.
1479
02:04:22,500 --> 02:04:31,500
Jim is two for four and he's hit the ball hard all four times.
1480
02:04:31,500 --> 02:04:34,500
O'Brien's set, run is at first and second and Bobby delivers.
1481
02:04:34,500 --> 02:04:39,500
Fast ball, hit just foul outside a third and that had chased another cub home.
1482
02:04:39,500 --> 02:04:48,500
0-1.
1483
02:04:48,500 --> 02:04:53,500
Don't forget the second game and the way this first one is going, that second one becomes mighty important.
1484
02:04:53,500 --> 02:05:07,500
And rookie Doyle Alexander will be going against veteran Juan Pizarro.
1485
02:05:07,500 --> 02:05:10,500
0-1 to Jim Hickman.
1486
02:05:10,500 --> 02:05:15,500
For reminder, we still have plenty of seats, plenty of sunlight and a beautiful evening at the ballpark.
1487
02:05:15,500 --> 02:05:17,500
Hickman takes low, 1-1.
1488
02:05:17,500 --> 02:05:22,500
The second game will start approximately a half hour after the first, so you folks are wondering about it.
1489
02:05:22,500 --> 02:05:25,500
You've got time to get over here.
1490
02:05:25,500 --> 02:05:31,500
Five to one Chicago, ninth inning, two out.
1491
02:05:31,500 --> 02:05:42,500
Now O'Brien ready and the 1-1 pitch to Hickman, fast ball outside, ball two, two and one.
1492
02:05:42,500 --> 02:05:45,500
O'Brien having his troubles.
1493
02:05:45,500 --> 02:05:51,500
Last night in comebacks tonight in relief and is struggling.
1494
02:05:51,500 --> 02:05:55,500
Hickman big right hand hitter, started in right field, finished up at first base.
1495
02:05:55,500 --> 02:05:59,500
O'Brien's 2-1 pitch, Jim strokes it to center, that's a base hit.
1496
02:05:59,500 --> 02:06:05,500
Davis has to go over and play it on a tricky hop, so Kessinger scores and in the third goes Beckett.
1497
02:06:05,500 --> 02:06:16,500
It is 6-1 Chicago and O'Brien hasn't been able to cool anybody.
1498
02:06:16,500 --> 02:06:24,500
So Jim Hickman has three hits and four runs batted in.
1499
02:06:24,500 --> 02:06:28,500
O'Brien has surrendered a double and three singles in the ninth inning.
1500
02:06:28,500 --> 02:06:34,500
Time out for the moment, Mel Steiner pointing ball one.
1501
02:06:34,500 --> 02:06:37,500
Apparently O'Brien went to his face while on the hill, that's right.
1502
02:06:37,500 --> 02:06:40,500
So the count is one ball and no strikes.
1503
02:06:40,500 --> 02:06:45,500
O'Brien went to his face while still up on the mound and Mel Steiner spotted it.
1504
02:06:45,500 --> 02:06:52,500
1-0 the count, Steiner informing Sudol and the plate umpire then informed the press box.
1505
02:06:52,500 --> 02:06:54,500
Here's Paul Popovich.
1506
02:06:54,500 --> 02:06:58,500
Popovich robbed of a hit on a leaping catch by Parker in the eighth inning.
1507
02:06:58,500 --> 02:07:00,500
O'Brien deals and it's piled away.
1508
02:07:00,500 --> 02:07:14,500
On one, 6-1 Chicago in the ninth.
1509
02:07:14,500 --> 02:07:20,500
O'Brien's set, checks the runners, the 1-1 pitch, fastball outside, ball two, 2-1.
1510
02:07:20,500 --> 02:07:27,500
So Mel Papas getting fat sitting in the dugout.
1511
02:07:27,500 --> 02:07:30,500
He was leading 4-1, now it's 6-1.
1512
02:07:30,500 --> 02:07:34,500
O'Brien's 2-1 pitch, off speed and lifted to Davis in Santa Fe.
1513
02:07:34,500 --> 02:07:37,500
He has to go back to get it and Willie does just that.
1514
02:07:37,500 --> 02:07:40,500
So the Cubs get two runs, four hits and lead two.
1515
02:07:40,500 --> 02:07:43,500
And at the end of eight and a half, Cubs six, Dodgers one.
1516
02:07:43,500 --> 02:07:46,500
Schlitz, Milwaukee in the world.
1517
02:07:46,500 --> 02:08:11,500
You only get one chance at life and you can't be afraid to live it because second chances never come.
1518
02:08:11,500 --> 02:08:13,500
But you wouldn't have it any other way.
1519
02:08:13,500 --> 02:08:16,500
Same with your beer, you wouldn't have it any other way either.
1520
02:08:16,500 --> 02:08:18,500
Schlitz, why settle for less?
1521
02:08:18,500 --> 02:08:42,500
You're out of Schlitz, you're out of beer.
1522
02:08:42,500 --> 02:08:49,500
Bottom of the ninth inning, the Cubs six runs, 11 hits and no errors.
1523
02:08:49,500 --> 02:08:52,500
Dodgers one run, three hits and no errors.
1524
02:08:52,500 --> 02:08:58,500
So Papas doesn't need the six, at least the way he's been pitching for eight innings, we'll see.
1525
02:08:58,500 --> 02:09:10,500
Crawford, Davis and Allen in the ninth.
1526
02:09:10,500 --> 02:09:16,500
Willie fouled out, loop one to center, Brock Davis made a fine sliding catch and grounded out.
1527
02:09:16,500 --> 02:09:23,500
He runs up the bun and takes outside, ball one, one and oh.
1528
02:09:23,500 --> 02:09:30,500
Papas comes right back, one oh and gets a strike, one and one.
1529
02:09:30,500 --> 02:09:33,500
Six runs, 11 hits for Chicago.
1530
02:09:33,500 --> 02:09:35,500
One run, only three hits for the Dodgers.
1531
02:09:35,500 --> 02:09:38,500
Two of those hits in the fourth inning when they got their only run.
1532
02:09:38,500 --> 02:09:42,500
Crawford drives one to left center field and deep, Cleo James and Brock Davis go back.
1533
02:09:42,500 --> 02:10:02,500
James drops it as he staggers and falls down and on his way to third is Crawford, he's in there.
1534
02:10:02,500 --> 02:10:07,500
Cleo James caught the ball in his glove, tripped and fell down and the ball came out.
1535
02:10:07,500 --> 02:10:10,500
And Crawford is standing at third base.
1536
02:10:10,500 --> 02:10:18,500
It'll be a triple for Willie and the batter is Davis.
1537
02:10:18,500 --> 02:10:23,500
For Crawford, that is his fifth triple.
1538
02:10:23,500 --> 02:10:27,500
Willie Davis has eight.
1539
02:10:27,500 --> 02:10:33,500
Six one Chicago, Davis lines it to center, Brock Davis in his tracks, makes the catch.
1540
02:10:33,500 --> 02:10:39,500
Crawford tags, comes to the plate to throw off line and he scores.
1541
02:10:39,500 --> 02:10:56,500
It is a small run however, the Cubs still lead at six to two and the batter with one precious out is Fended with Richie Allen.
1542
02:10:56,500 --> 02:11:00,500
Richie Allen walks single to right and struck out, he's one for two.
1543
02:11:00,500 --> 02:11:05,500
Pappas ready, delivers, Richie fouls it away on one.
1544
02:11:05,500 --> 02:11:17,500
Mill Pappas has done just what Leo had hoped to do, what the Dodgers had hoped would happen but did not, namely a starting pitcher go along with the bullpen having the night off in the first game.
1545
02:11:17,500 --> 02:11:20,500
For the Cubs, they desperately need it because of their schedule.
1546
02:11:20,500 --> 02:11:27,500
The next one outside, the Cubs with a double header tonight have a double header Friday and a double header Sunday.
1547
02:11:27,500 --> 02:11:31,500
They're really thin. One and one to Richie Allen.
1548
02:11:31,500 --> 02:11:39,500
Six to Chicago in the ninth inning. Richie drives one to right center field and deep and that ball is going to go.
1549
02:11:39,500 --> 02:12:04,500
A home run.
1550
02:12:04,500 --> 02:12:10,500
The Dodgers are making noises in the ninth inning but they are still several dollars short.
1551
02:12:10,500 --> 02:12:16,500
Richie Allen hits his 12 home run into the right center field bleachers over the 380 mark.
1552
02:12:16,500 --> 02:12:22,500
They've scored twice in the ninth at the Dodgers but it's six to three in favor of Chicago.
1553
02:12:22,500 --> 02:12:26,500
And the batter is West Parker.
1554
02:12:26,500 --> 02:12:35,500
The service ready delivers and it's low. Two books of Union on auto script to the Eastside Boys Club. 324 North McDonald Avenue in Los Angeles.
1555
02:12:35,500 --> 02:12:40,500
And two books of Union auto script to Richie Allen. And the Cubs bullpen stirs around.
1556
02:12:40,500 --> 02:12:43,500
Parker takes the strike.
1557
02:12:43,500 --> 02:12:49,500
Regan and Newman throwing in the Chicago 10. One and one to Parker. Duke Sims on deck.
1558
02:12:49,500 --> 02:13:12,500
So the two in the top of the ninth have really turned out to be pretty big now as Parker hits one up the middle. Knocked down by Becker. No play. They pitch.
1559
02:13:12,500 --> 02:13:24,500
The batter will be Duke Sims and this crowd had to be very quiet all night. And now in the ninth inning they have a chance to make some noise anyway.
1560
02:13:24,500 --> 02:13:28,500
The Rogers off the bench. Stirring around a little bit.
1561
02:13:28,500 --> 02:13:34,500
Here in the inning. Harvard hit a long drive over the head of Cleo James who caught the ball stumbled and fell down.
1562
02:13:34,500 --> 02:13:39,500
Dropping the ball in the process. The one is a triple. Davis got a scoring fly ball to center.
1563
02:13:39,500 --> 02:13:45,500
Allen Homer to right center. Parker has single up the middle. The Dodgers are still hurting very much.
1564
02:13:45,500 --> 02:13:49,500
One out in the ninth inning. Chicago 6 and the Dodgers 3.
1565
02:13:49,500 --> 02:13:56,500
Easing the pain in this first game at least. The knowledge that the Giants lost.
1566
02:13:56,500 --> 02:14:21,500
Sims waiting. Half is deals and that's going to be a dunker to center. They hit. Parker stops the second.
1567
02:14:21,500 --> 02:14:27,500
The good sense. Just hit a looper in the center field for a base hit. Two on one out.
1568
02:14:27,500 --> 02:14:33,500
And Hickman goes to the mound on orders from the Rocher Leo.
1569
02:14:33,500 --> 02:14:41,500
The batter is Jim Lefebvre with two on the Cubs leading six to three. So the feeder represents the tying run at the plate.
1570
02:14:41,500 --> 02:14:57,500
However, Pappas has given him a terrible time. He struck him out twice and here comes a lion now up the steps to go out to the mound.
1571
02:14:57,500 --> 02:15:03,500
Leo for eight and a half innings was able to sit back and watch Pappas stifle the Dodgers.
1572
02:15:03,500 --> 02:15:10,500
And milk went into the ninth inning leading six to one. And the Dodgers have scrambled for two.
1573
02:15:10,500 --> 02:15:16,500
They have two on with one out. Lefebvre the batter and Leo wants to talk to Pappas.
1574
02:15:16,500 --> 02:15:24,500
Pappas this year had started 16 completed seven.
1575
02:15:24,500 --> 02:15:34,500
Leo has Reagan and Newman in the bullpen. But he is holding court out there on the mound.
1576
02:15:34,500 --> 02:15:49,500
And he has not given any indication of a change. If anything, he would have feared to be talking to Pappas as to how he wants milk to piss.
1577
02:15:49,500 --> 02:16:01,500
Leo finishes up by saying, all right, huh? And Pappas answers. And Leo pats him on the back and goes walking back to the dugout.
1578
02:16:01,500 --> 02:16:08,500
So the count to an old Leo coming out and the umpires now tell him that he has to finish.
1579
02:16:08,500 --> 02:16:19,500
And it is first base umpire Steiner who puts his hands on Leo's chest and says he has to finish this hitter because you've already been out there talking to him on this hitter.
1580
02:16:19,500 --> 02:16:25,500
In other words, Leo could have come out the first time with a count to an old and taken out his pitcher.
1581
02:16:25,500 --> 02:16:32,500
But he's been there once and you cannot make two trips and change pitches with the same hitter.
1582
02:16:32,500 --> 02:16:39,500
And the umpires are telling Leo go back to the dugout. Pappas has to pitch to Lefebvre.
1583
02:16:39,500 --> 02:16:47,500
And Leo says, oh, I see. And he goes back to the bench.
1584
02:16:47,500 --> 02:16:55,500
So he can now with first base open, of course, Lefebvre represents a tying run.
1585
02:16:55,500 --> 02:17:03,500
Two balls and no strikes to count.
1586
02:17:03,500 --> 02:17:09,500
Well, the crowd having some fun here in the ninth inning with the Dodgers still have a long road to travel and there's one out.
1587
02:17:09,500 --> 02:17:25,500
Lefebvre waiting to an office to the wind up and the fed five or three.
1588
02:17:25,500 --> 02:17:40,500
And all the other people have us to the wind up the three or five ball for. Now here comes Leo and now there goes.
1589
02:17:40,500 --> 02:17:55,500
Pappas for sure. Regan and Newman in the bullpen. I think they want Regan. They do. Bill Regan will be brought in with the bases loaded. Bill Russell will run for Jimmy Lefebvre.
1590
02:17:55,500 --> 02:18:04,500
He represents the tying run. Had the Cubs not scored two in the ninth, this place would be a madhouse.
1591
02:18:04,500 --> 02:18:11,500
But they did. And it is six to three Chicago. The base is loaded one out.
1592
02:18:11,500 --> 02:18:18,500
Russell running for Lefebvre and Milk Pappas comes out. Milk now comes out a little bit up in the air.
1593
02:18:18,500 --> 02:18:24,500
He can't lose. He leaves with three on and a three run lead. He could have nothing to do with it.
1594
02:18:24,500 --> 02:18:37,500
But Regan will be brought in to pitch to Bill Buckner. Pappas winds up walking three.
1595
02:18:37,500 --> 02:18:42,500
Milk allowed three runs but the door is open and eight and a third in it.
1596
02:18:42,500 --> 02:18:48,500
Seven hits and now Phil Regan slowly coming in. We've got time. Here's Jerry.
1597
02:18:48,500 --> 02:18:55,500
We have any on the scoreboard in a wild one today at San Francisco. The Astros beat the Giants 18 to 4 with 17 hits.
1598
02:18:55,500 --> 02:19:00,500
Durker the winner and Stone the loser. They had 10 runs in the fourth inning for Houston.
1599
02:19:00,500 --> 02:19:04,500
They only have one report out of Pittsburgh and that game should be almost over by now.
1600
02:19:04,500 --> 02:19:08,500
That was a first inning score five nothing in favor of the Pirates.
1601
02:19:08,500 --> 02:19:14,500
Montreal beat New York today 12 to 7 in New York and the Mets have lost seven out of eight.
1602
02:19:14,500 --> 02:19:18,500
There's another score out of the East and that game should be almost over one to nothing.
1603
02:19:18,500 --> 02:19:23,500
Philadelphia that's the first inning score. Of course with a strike on we do not get too many late scores.
1604
02:19:23,500 --> 02:19:27,500
St. Louis and San Diego later. Washington Baltimore nothing in the second.
1605
02:19:27,500 --> 02:19:32,500
Boston beat Cleveland four to nothing first game and Cleveland leads the second game four to one.
1606
02:19:32,500 --> 02:19:39,500
New York over and Detroit later Oakland Chicago later Kansas City Milwaukee later and the angels are playing at Minnesota.
1607
02:19:39,500 --> 02:19:45,500
Well Dodgers and the Giants baseball's biggest rivalry and they'll be on hand coming up over the weekend.
1608
02:19:45,500 --> 02:19:48,500
Take a tip visit a Dodger ticket office and do your shopping early.
1609
02:19:48,500 --> 02:19:57,500
Plenty of tickets left of course but they're moving mighty fast so shop now at the Dodger office on Stadium Way at TicketCon mutual offices throughout Southern California.
1610
02:19:57,500 --> 02:20:03,500
Friday night Saturday night Sunday with the Giants but tomorrow a lot of big work to do with the Chicago Cubs.
1611
02:20:03,500 --> 02:20:15,500
Right now more action here's Vinnie Bill Reagan who picked up the nickname here in Los Angeles as the Vulture back in nineteen sixty six when he had the overwhelming record of 14 and one.
1612
02:20:15,500 --> 02:20:24,500
Reagan now comes in at Dodger Stadium but wearing a club uniform in another tough penitentiary.
1613
02:20:24,500 --> 02:20:29,500
The first thing played on by students was examined the ball.
1614
02:20:29,500 --> 02:20:37,500
Bill Buckner with a base is loaded one out in the night the club leading six to three.
1615
02:20:37,500 --> 02:20:47,500
Parker at third then that second Russell the tying run at first Reagan ready pitch to Buckner ground ball wide a first in the right field.
1616
02:20:47,500 --> 02:21:11,500
In come Parker in comes in the third of Russell.
1617
02:21:11,500 --> 02:21:27,500
Bill Buckner hit Reagan's first pitch in the right field and this place is going wild.
1618
02:21:27,500 --> 02:21:32,500
The Dodgers have scored four with one out the Cubs lead six to five.
1619
02:21:32,500 --> 02:21:45,500
Buckner is at first Russell is at third and Manny Moda is coming up a hit for Bobby O'Brien.
1620
02:21:45,500 --> 02:21:51,500
The tying run 90 feet away Reagan out of a stretch the pitch to Moda ground ball to Reagan.
1621
02:21:51,500 --> 02:21:59,500
He goes to the plate to get Russell who is tagged out by Canna zero and stopping at second is Buckner.
1622
02:21:59,500 --> 02:22:11,500
So Moda who can go the other way about as well as anybody who ever played the game could not and hit the ball to Reagan and Russell had to come to the plate to keep the game alive.
1623
02:22:11,500 --> 02:22:19,500
So Russell is down one to Reagan to Canna zero and now it looks like the Dodgers might be able to tie.
1624
02:22:19,500 --> 02:22:32,500
But now it's really got to be cut in two down two on and will the batter.
1625
02:22:32,500 --> 02:22:45,500
Maury is all for three six five Chicago first of two Reagan deals low and a good save by Canna zero ball one.
1626
02:22:45,500 --> 02:22:50,500
So this is the ninth man to come to bat for the Dodgers here in the ninth inning.
1627
02:22:50,500 --> 02:22:59,500
But the two they gave up in the top of the ninth is the Albatross hung around their necks now in the bottom of the ninth.
1628
02:22:59,500 --> 02:23:05,500
Buckner at second base Moda at first to out.
1629
02:23:05,500 --> 02:23:11,500
Wills has rounded out twice slide to left and walk all of those trips against Pappas.
1630
02:23:11,500 --> 02:23:20,500
The Dodgers lead the Dodgers playing Wills to go to left field top of its wide and just about a step up inside the bag at third.
1631
02:23:20,500 --> 02:23:32,500
Pickman deep at first base the pitch to Wills low ball to the Dodgers led one nothing through five.
1632
02:23:32,500 --> 02:23:37,500
The Cubs led four to one through eight and the Cubs got two in the ninth to lead six to one.
1633
02:23:37,500 --> 02:23:49,500
And the Dodgers have scored four to make it six five Chicago to out to an old Amore Wills Buckner and Moda on the line Reagan ready to to hope it's a strike.
1634
02:23:49,500 --> 02:23:57,500
Don't want to forget if you're anywhere in the area.
1635
02:23:57,500 --> 02:24:05,500
You've got plenty of time for the second game and that should be a Lulu Doyle Alexander and Juan Pizarro.
1636
02:24:05,500 --> 02:24:08,500
But this first one is still alive.
1637
02:24:08,500 --> 02:24:14,500
Two and one to Wills Reagan ready and deals and is a high bouncer back in the man's pathway.
1638
02:24:14,500 --> 02:24:28,500
No way the bases are loaded.
1639
02:24:28,500 --> 02:24:30,500
Let's pause the station identification.
1640
02:24:30,500 --> 02:24:49,500
This is the Los Angeles Dodgers radio network.
1641
02:24:49,500 --> 02:24:55,500
The Dodgers have put on a tremendous show here in the ninth inning win or lose.
1642
02:24:55,500 --> 02:24:57,500
Why have they gotten off the floor.
1643
02:24:57,500 --> 02:25:07,500
They've got six to one they've scored four times to make it six to five and with two out the bases are loaded.
1644
02:25:07,500 --> 02:25:20,500
The Dodgers have already had the tying run cut down at the plate and now Willie Crawford up there and everything on the line Reagan out of a wind up the pitch to Willie a strike.
1645
02:25:20,500 --> 02:25:28,500
The center at third the tying run motor at second will set first.
1646
02:25:28,500 --> 02:25:36,500
Dodgers have had four singles a triple and a home run in the ninth inning strike one fit swung on and missed and the bottom dropped out of that sinker.
1647
02:25:36,500 --> 02:25:40,500
Oh and to the proper.
1648
02:25:40,500 --> 02:25:49,500
Willie is the 10th man to come to the plate.
1649
02:25:49,500 --> 02:26:01,500
He's got a half a dozen hits in the night but here comes Reagan strike to pitch his low ball on Dodgers has scored four runs on six hits.
1650
02:26:01,500 --> 02:26:04,500
But the Cubs lead six to five.
1651
02:26:04,500 --> 02:26:10,500
The pressure was the hopper hit right back to Reagan by motor one to fit got him swinging.
1652
02:26:10,500 --> 02:26:11,500
Yep.
1653
02:26:11,500 --> 02:26:30,500
And that's what you do by Canada Chris apparently juggled either the pitch or the foul tip but he whirled around and held it high in the air and then stood all called Crawford out so that I just kept throwing punches till the end.
1654
02:26:30,500 --> 02:26:39,500
But when it was all over the two runs they had given up in the top of the ninth were too much to climb over the totals and the lock up shop on the first one.
1655
02:26:39,500 --> 02:26:42,500
Yeah.
1656
02:26:42,500 --> 02:26:56,500
11 hits at no errors the winning pitcher no purpose and the Cubs left seven men on the bases for the Dodgers five runs no hits nine hits and no errors and the Dodgers lined up leaving five men on and the losing pitcher was our downing.
1657
02:26:56,500 --> 02:27:09,500
So downing is 10 and five and papas is nine and eight but boy was it easy for the Cubs as the Dodgers battle right back into that ninth inning after using two in the top of the night came back with four had the tying run cut down on the plate on a
1658
02:27:09,500 --> 02:27:26,500
tapper back to the box by Mota then reloaded the bases only to have Crawford go down on strikes on a good hard sinker by Phil Regan. So you have to give Regan credit he came in there and did a tough job on a tough hitter after yielding a base hit the Bruckner and an infield hit the wheels.
1659
02:27:26,500 --> 02:27:50,500
The second game goes down the Dodgers lose it by a score of six to five so they are again three and a half back they have to look over their shoulder now as they are only three and a half ahead of Houston. Well that's it the final score of the first game the Cubs six the Dodgers five.
