2

00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,000

00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,000

00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,000
Vic Power, batting sixth, playing first base.
9
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,000
At short stop, batting seventh, Woody Hales.
10
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:05,000
Mike Delahose will be at third base, batting eighth.
11
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:10,000
And Barry Latman, pitching and batting ninth.
12
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,000
For the Yankees leading off at second base, Bobby Richardson.
13
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,000
Tony Kubeck at short stop, batting second.
14
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,000
In right field, batting third, Roger Maris.
15
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,000
Mickey Mantle, batting clean up in center field.
16
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,000
In left field, once again, batting fifth, Johnny Blanchard.
17
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,000
Elston Howard doing the catching, batting sixth.
18
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,000
At first base, batting seventh, Phil Scaran.
19
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,000
Cleve Poyer back in action again at third base, batting eighth.
20
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:43,000
And Whitey Ford, pitching and batting ninth.
21
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,000
The umpires, Frank Humont calling balls and strikes.
22
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,000
Joe Linsalata at first, Bob Stewart at second.
23
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:54,000
And Charlie Berry over at third.
24
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,000
Both pitches have completed warming up.
25
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:01,000
The ground crew has finished moving down the infield.
26
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,000
Everything's about ready to go.
27
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:15,000
And just a reminder, do you have plenty of time?
28
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,000
Well, let's take a look at the standings.
29
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,000
The magic number now for the Yankees is 11.
30
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:26,000
Any combination of Yankee wins or Detroit defeats, that's total 11.
31
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:31,000
And the Yankees are in.
32
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:36,000
New York now 10 games ahead of the Detroit Tigers.
33
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,000
13 ahead of Baltimore, 20 ahead of Chicago.
34
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,000
26 and a half ahead of the Indians.
35
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,000
29 and a half ahead of the Red Sox.
36
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,000
35 ahead of the Angels.
37
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,000
36 ahead of Minnesota.
38
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:58,000
44 and a half ahead of Kansas City and 45 and a half ahead of Washington.
39
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:02,000
And the Yankees, with 97 wins to their credit right now,
40
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:06,000
have already matched their total number of victories in 1960,
41
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,000
when they won 97 and lost 57 and won the American League,
42
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,000
painted by eight games.
43
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:21,000
And you can see that, brand of ball, the other teams are playing.
44
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:26,000
So this is a good time for the Yankees to have had that hot streak.
45
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,000
They're about ready to go, and they're trying to get somebody to lead them out,
46
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:47,000
but they all go in unison this time.
47
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:52,000
Jimmy Dykes is still talking with Charlie Berry, who will be umpiring at third today.
48
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:59,000
But right now, our national anthem.
49
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:47,000
The Yankees.
50
00:04:47,000 --> 00:05:06,000
Well, we're ready now for the start of this ball game,
51
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:11,000
and alongside me the gentleman who's going to take you along the start of the game, Red Barber.
52
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,000
Phil, will you explain something to me?
53
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:14,000
Uh-huh.
54
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:18,000
I understand that when Dykes stole Latham, he was going to fix the first game,
55
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,000
and then he finally went back in his office.
56
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:24,000
That six of the Cleveland players formed a circle around Latham
57
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,000
and started the thing all langs eyes.
58
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,000
What's the meaning of that?
59
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,000
Well, they figure he's going to join the club today.
60
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:36,000
Or should old acquaintance be forgotten?
61
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:40,000
I imagine that's what it was, because last time Latham pitched against the Yankees,
62
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,000
he did very well.
63
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,000
Neither Maddell nor Maris got a home run.
64
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,000
All players really tease each other.
65
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,000
Oh, they sure do.
66
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:54,000
You know, people on the outside might think it's kind of rough to tease a fellow like Latham,
67
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:59,000
who's done a good job, but it's all in fun, and they're actually trying to relax him a little bit.
68
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,000
Did the Yankees ever tease you when you were playing?
69
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:02,000
Oh my gosh, yes.
70
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,000
Many times.
71
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,000
I remember the first time I hit a home run came into the dugout.
72
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,000
There was nobody sitting on the bench but Joe McCarthy,
73
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,000
I couldn't convince any of the other players that I had hit a home run.
74
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,000
They said they were all inside and they didn't believe it.
75
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:20,000
Ha ha ha.
76
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:28,000
Well, at that, I think ballplay is a very practical psychologist.
77
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:35,000
This thing of a sense of humor certainly does break the tension.
78
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:43,000
Now we have Johnny Temple to be first up, Whitey Ford going up to win number 24.
79
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,000
Had the big day out here yesterday.
80
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,000
He was deep to touch by.
81
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,000
Johnny Temple.
82
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:57,000
He's going to have a tough man to pitch to, hitting 280.
83
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:01,000
Slow curve is good for the call strike.
84
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:05,000
Here's Yuma with the duty back of the plate today.
85
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,000
Lin Solata down at first.
86
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,000
Charlie Berry is at second.
87
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:16,000
Stewart is at third.
88
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:21,000
There's a ball that is hit into right center field and safe for a base knock.
89
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,000
Temple makes the turn.
90
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,000
He's on.
91
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,000
Wait a second.
92
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:28,000
Here's Mantle throw and Temple's in there for a double.
93
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:37,000
He's got a ball in the hole, right center.
94
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,000
So that's talked it off.
95
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:54,000
The Indians have lost their last 16 games here at the stadium.
96
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:59,000
There's a ball that's hit into right center field and safe for a base knock.
97
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:05,000
Jimmy Pilsen is hitting for a high average, 326.
98
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:16,000
Takes a curve outside, ball one.
99
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,000
First man up has doubled.
100
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,000
The start of a first game.
101
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:29,000
Got a tremendous crowd here at the stadium.
102
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,000
Full curve is down and foul.
103
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,000
That's that third base for the coach, Luke Affling.
104
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:37,000
Dale McGaha coaching over at first.
105
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,000
Forbes is starting in the first game daily.
106
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,000
We'll start in the second.
107
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:49,000
Latham goes in the first game for Cleveland and Perry will pitch the second one.
108
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,000
George catching, John at first.
109
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,000
Richardson is at second.
110
00:08:53,000 --> 00:09:00,000
Kubeck at short and Boyer after day out with a bad knee as Dr. Sturge.
111
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,000
Mighty deal.
112
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,000
The curve ball hit down to short.
113
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:09,000
Kubeck up, holds the runner at second, throws over to first and Pilsen is out by wide hodge.
114
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:16,000
Goa have won away and here is Tito Francona hitting 293.
115
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:23,000
Most tips on his ball, 158.
116
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,000
The outfield for the Yankees, Blanchett is in left.
117
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:32,000
Maddell in center and Marich who hit 56 yesterday is in right.
118
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:38,000
And when you mention Marich and Maddell, that's one of the reasons why you've got this big crowd.
119
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:50,000
Francona cuts to the sidearm curve, like one.
120
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,000
The folks are here.
121
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:59,000
And this crowd today sends the Yankees considerably ahead of their season's home attendance last year.
122
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:03,000
And of course they have the five games remaining the last week of the season.
123
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:11,000
Two with Baltimore, three with Boston.
124
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,000
Four deals, a curve low outside.
125
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,000
Left-handed pitcher, left-hand hitter.
126
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,000
One ball, one strike.
127
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:29,000
We have a light breeze which is blowing out toward left center.
128
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaking of Marich and Maddell, counting the double-headed today, they have 12 games remaining under the ruling by the commission.
129
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:40,000
The Gulf of Maine's record is 60.
130
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:48,000
What came down with a high inside change of pace that was taking Francona waved at it, it's like two.
131
00:10:48,000 --> 00:11:00,000
It was true some time ago, if you're not familiar, that Ruth's record must be done in 154 games,
132
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,000
Marquise saying 162 this year.
133
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,000
So that was the number of games that Babe played in when he cut it.
134
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:12,000
There's a ground foul outside third, still wanted to.
135
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:30,000
One ball, two strikes.
136
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:35,000
Whitey taking the time from Howard who is using a sequence pattern with a runner at second.
137
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:40,000
You can see his fingers as well as the pitcher.
138
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:45,000
One-two delivery, swung on, there's a five-ball and to the short right, there is Marich coming in, he's under it.
139
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,000
He has it.
140
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,000
Now we have two down.
141
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,000
Ford's float up on it.
142
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,000
Francona didn't hit it squarely.
143
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,000
We heard a plunk.
144
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:03,000
Now we have John Romano, the catcher, hitting a 297.
145
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,000
And Ford, of course, will be very careful with him.
146
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:11,000
Runner at second base, two out.
147
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:18,000
Romano got hit on the left foot yesterday, foul ball.
148
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:24,000
You have no score.
149
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:28,000
This is a big crowd, but you don't hear it in the microphone.
150
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:34,000
But you wait until the Yankees come to bat in the last of the first inning and the M boys swing into sight.
151
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,000
And your ears will tell you something.
152
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,000
Good.
153
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:48,000
A flatter, good for a called strike just above the maze on the inside.
154
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,000
Romano steps back out.
155
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,000
I don't think he appreciated the call too much.
156
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,000
He's just in the humon a little bit.
157
00:12:55,000 --> 00:13:02,000
Not for long, he's in there again.
158
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:08,000
This is a ball.
159
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,000
There was a curve breaking low inside.
160
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,000
Romano started the swing and checked his swing.
161
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:26,000
And if he started the swing, Humon started with his right hand and then that's about to check his swing in time, he brought the right hand down again.
162
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,000
One ball, one strike.
163
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:32,000
That's a rough job calling balls and strikes back of the play.
164
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,000
There's a line drive that is hit into left center for a base talk.
165
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,000
Here's a couple of rounds third.
166
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,000
Blanket's going to the plate, but not in time.
167
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,000
Boy, a touch to cut it off.
168
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:42,000
The ball kicked away.
169
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:43,000
Howard receives it.
170
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,000
Romano saves it first and it is one to nothing for Cleveland.
171
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:50,000
A line single and a long one to left center field.
172
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,000
Blanket had no chance.
173
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:56,000
No chance to stop the ride.
174
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:04,000
So, they have one in for the Vistas.
175
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:10,000
You heard a bit of a mama reaction from the crowd then.
176
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,000
1-1-2 hits for Cleveland and here's Kirkland.
177
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:17,000
He hit a home run out here yesterday for Cleveland.
178
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,000
Will is adding 2.58.
179
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,000
Left hand hitter.
180
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,000
Takes a strike over the inside.
181
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,000
Hand high.
182
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:34,000
Kirkland gets his forward foot, his left one, just about as close to the plate as he can,
183
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:39,000
and then points his forward foot to the second base.
184
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,000
So, it's a crowding open stance.
185
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,000
There's a ball bouncing away from Howard and Romano looks on down to second base.
186
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,000
The pitch was low and it caused a wild pitch on Whitey.
187
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:56,000
So, he is behind the run and now with a wild pitch he has a runner at second base
188
00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:04,000
at the pickup point at home.
189
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:13,000
One ball, one strike.
190
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,000
The guys are all clear.
191
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:19,000
It's just a little haze, but it's basically a blue and white pattern.
192
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,000
1-1 delivery.
193
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:22,000
Low outside, a curve.
194
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:23,000
Ball two.
195
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,000
Howard having a good answer left.
196
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:37,000
Sound of a plane passing by.
197
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,000
Well, nothing Cleveland.
198
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:43,000
Here's the start of the big day.
199
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:51,000
Pitch, swung on the ground ball, hit, foul outside first base.
200
00:15:51,000 --> 00:16:01,000
That's two and two.
201
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:08,000
You might say in essence that Kirkland is what the Indians have for Colavito.
202
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:15,000
They traded Colavito for Keane and a year later traded Keane to San Francisco for Kirkland and Antonelli.
203
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:20,000
And then they showed Antonelli who couldn't win for them.
204
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,000
No walking.
205
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:29,000
Two-two pitch, swung on late as a foul in the lower left field stand.
206
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:36,000
Two and two.
207
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:51,000
Two balls, two strikes.
208
00:16:51,000 --> 00:17:06,000
Two-two delivery again, high outside, ball three.
209
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:12,000
Whitey slowed down the speed of the pitch.
210
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:22,000
Two-two delivery, swung on, there is a looper in the short set of field.
211
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,000
It's dropping for a base hit.
212
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:24,000
Romano's coming in with a second run.
213
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:25,000
And they just throw the ball to second base.
214
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,000
Kirkland looped it for a single and it is too nothing in favor of Cleveland.
215
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:43,000
And so the Wilds hit first second run as it now stands.
216
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:58,000
Down here is Vic Colav hitting 263.
217
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:08,000
And a severe crowd, right-hand batter, swing down and hits it in the right field stand foul.
218
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:13,000
We have a tremendous battery of photographers.
219
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:25,000
Everything that that marriage does will be photographed.
220
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:31,000
Pitch low inside, flatter, one and one.
221
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:35,000
Ball and the strikes.
222
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,000
Kirkland's been using breaking stuff.
223
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:43,000
I haven't seen him play fastball.
224
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:44,000
Kirkland off first.
225
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:51,000
And Ford moves over there and Kirkland steps back.
226
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:58,000
Too nothing in favor of the Indians.
227
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:05,000
And a foul ball in the right field stands again.
228
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,000
He reached for a change of speed low outside hit.
229
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:19,000
One and two.
230
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:23,000
Ford in position to check the run at first pitchers.
231
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:27,000
Another foul result in the first base stand.
232
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:49,000
They're getting power outside and Vic is reaching for them and following them into the right field stand.
233
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,000
Pitchers, a curve ball which is hit out into left field.
234
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,000
Short left has Lantz coming on.
235
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,000
He's trying to get there.
236
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,000
And here's Kirkland coming to third base and they stop him.
237
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,000
And power comes in to second with a double.
238
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:08,000
It was a fly ball, not deep, that landed about 10 feet fair inside the left field line.
239
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:12,000
The outfield had been pushed back toward right.
240
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,000
And Blankett had no chance.
241
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:19,000
The ball dropped when he was still three feet, three running steps away.
242
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:26,000
Kirkland is held by Appley at third.
243
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,000
Four hits for Cleveland.
244
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,000
Now I have Woody held.
245
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:38,000
He had a home run out here yesterday, batting 265.
246
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:43,000
The Yankee bullpen begins stirring.
247
00:20:43,000 --> 00:21:00,000
Change of pace, there's a tie outside, ball one.
248
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:14,000
Here's the change, swing on it, doesn't get it.
249
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:24,000
One and one.
250
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:31,000
And there's a high flatter into the hand for a 12-second strike.
251
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,000
One ball, two strikes.
252
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:41,000
First base is open, run of the second and third.
253
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:45,000
Whitey deals low inside, ball two.
254
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,000
Now that is the hardest that he's thrown a ball.
255
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,000
Phil, Whitey seems to be struggling.
256
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,000
I haven't seen him so hard.
257
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,000
No, I haven't either. Maybe he was unloading all those gifts he got yesterday.
258
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:58,000
Red might have tied him out.
259
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:03,000
All right, two and two.
260
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:09,000
The ball is hit out and the set of metal comes on and makes the one-handed tap.
261
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:25,000
It's a soft play to get out of the inning.
262
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,000
Well, that's an ovation for Maddow Katz.
263
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:31,000
He caught it right off the grass, coming in at a tough speed on the score end of half an inning.
264
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:40,000
Cleveland, too, and the act is now to hit.
265
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:46,000
Atlantic Imperial, the quality gasoline that cleans your carburetor as you drive,
266
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:50,000
is now backed by the clean carburetor test.
267
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:55,000
We're so sure you'll agree that Atlantic Imperial gasoline improves your car's performance,
268
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:59,000
but we're inviting you to prove it without risking an extra penny.
269
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:03,000
Here's how Atlantic clean carburetor tests work.
270
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:08,000
Use 100 gallons of Atlantic Imperial and ask for a receipt with each purchase.
271
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:13,000
If you're not completely satisfied that Atlantic Imperial gives you smoother idling,
272
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:19,000
less stalling, and generally improves your car's performance, just mail the receipt to Atlantic.
273
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:26,000
We'll pay the difference between the cost of 100 gallons of Atlantic Imperial and regular gasoline,
274
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,000
and that's all there is to it.
275
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:33,000
You'll like the difference Atlantic Imperial makes, or we'll pay the difference.
276
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:52,000
Start using Atlantic Imperial soon.
277
00:23:52,000 --> 00:24:02,000
And now, in the last of the first inning, House had Coates and Cleminger warming up in the Yankee Boat End.
278
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:11,000
Whitey was struggling there in the first inning, and it took her stellar catch by Maddow to get the third out.
279
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:20,000
All right, we have Bobby Richardson first up, 2-0 Cleveland.
280
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,000
Bobby hitting 2-69.
281
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:28,000
Lepman curbs him low outside, ball one.
282
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,000
Lepman has run 12, lost four.
283
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,000
He has beaten the Yankees once this year.
284
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,000
That would have to be at Cleveland.
285
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,000
The Indians haven't won a ball game at the stadium this year,
286
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:44,000
and the Boats of March have lost the right 16, they say here.
287
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:52,000
This is low, ball two.
288
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:57,000
All right, two balls, no strikes.
289
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:01,000
Lepman, strong right-hander, delivers.
290
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,000
Good first strike just above the knees.
291
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,000
Romano is catching him.
292
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,000
Power is at first base.
293
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,000
Temple at second.
294
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:14,000
The first half is held, and the third baseman is Mike De La Hose.
295
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,000
Low outside, ball three.
296
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:30,000
De La Hose playing, plays for Phillips, who got hit on the left hand early in the Friday night game.
297
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:35,000
And so on left, De La Hose in center, Kirkland in right.
298
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:43,000
Low delivery, low, ball four, and the ball is on.
299
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:50,000
Now, cool back steps in, hitting at 276.
300
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,000
It's the birthday boy, Roger Marich.
301
00:25:53,000 --> 00:26:06,000
27 today, moving out now onto the on-deck tackle.
302
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,000
Tony, break for left-hand batter.
303
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,000
Infield double play death.
304
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:21,000
Lepman buzzes the inside under the hands for a called strike.
305
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:27,000
Lepman first came up with a white star.
306
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,000
There's a curve ball, down to down to second.
307
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:34,000
Temple up, but it goes back to second short to get one and throw the first double play.
308
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,000
Boy, that's held.
309
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,000
It was moving down that second base.
310
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,000
You have to make it.
311
00:26:40,000 --> 00:27:06,000
Now, do you hear the crowd? There's Marich, who's in the batter's box.
312
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:15,000
Pitches inside, ball one.
313
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,000
Marich hitting 271.
314
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:24,000
It's a long foul in the upper right field stand.
315
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,000
And of course, the minute he swung and the ball took off,
316
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:34,000
fans didn't like to see the ooh nod.
317
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:39,000
He's a big attraction.
318
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:45,000
Like one ball, one strike.
319
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,000
That's it, well around flood right.
320
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:53,000
Lepman pitches high outside, dismissive ball, too.
321
00:27:53,000 --> 00:28:00,000
Three infielders on the right side.
322
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:08,000
Marich is the most pronounced right field hitter, full hitter, that we have in the league.
323
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,000
Two-one delivery.
324
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:13,000
There's a high, high ball into right center field, not too deep,
325
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:17,000
second under it, right fielder takes.
326
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:21,000
Well, that's the third out.
327
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,000
And thanks to the double play following the walk,
328
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,000
there was nothing across after the first inning.
329
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:32,000
So the score at the end of the first is Cleveland 2 and New York nothing.
330
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:40,000
Other games, the Tigers, who got out of their losing flunk yesterday at Boston,
331
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:44,000
failed to score their first bad bat up at Boston, single game.
332
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,000
Masi for Detroit and Conley for Boston.
333
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:53,000
Masi recently has lost, I think out of his last five decisions,
334
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:58,000
he has lost three one-to-nothing ball games.
335
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:02,000
Now that is really calculated to sweeten his spirits.
336
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:06,000
Washington at Baltimore, no score in the half an inning.
337
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,000
McLean versus Estrada.
338
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,000
Chicago will come in later from Los Angeles.
339
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:17,000
The doubleheader Minnesota at Kansas City, which will start later.
340
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:22,000
In the National League, we have Philadelphia, Chicago, Pittsburgh, and Milwaukee.
341
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:27,000
St. Louis at Cincinnati, Los Angeles at San Francisco, and they are all coming later.
342
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,000
The lead in the National League is now three.
343
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:37,000
Cincinnati winning in 12 innings yesterday, and San Francisco dumping the Los Angeles again.
344
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:41,000
The lead in the American League is ten.
345
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:47,000
Now we have Mike Delahause hitting 270.
346
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:52,000
Swings it forward, slow curve, and fouls it.
347
00:29:52,000 --> 00:30:02,000
Third base coach DeCruz, it throws it out.
348
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:07,000
It's a stadium for the Yankees until they are back Tuesday night, September 26,
349
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,000
with Baltimore in the falling Wednesday afternoon.
350
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:20,000
The red structure is Friday night, September 29, Saturday afternoon and Sunday.
351
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:27,000
For Deals and the Pitchers, high outside for ball two, two and one.
352
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:38,000
Two balls, one strike.
353
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:43,000
Whitey works, and there's a ground foul outside of third.
354
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:51,000
Ball bounced up into the stands by the scramble.
355
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:54,000
Two and two.
356
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,000
That's the count. This is the start of inning two.
357
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:01,000
First of two, and slavery lead two, nothing.
358
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,000
Whitey delivers, and as the ball hit out the right center, Mal is going over.
359
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:11,000
Mal is there.
360
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:16,000
And the pitcher, Lampman, is getting ready now to come out of the dugout.
361
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:24,000
The White Sox thirded him to Cleveland, you will recall, for a hard score.
362
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:39,000
He's a little bit more up in the coast league, San Diego, trying to regain some measure of control.
363
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:50,000
He has never been able to get straightened out since he was stuck by Mike Dibble's line drive.
364
00:31:50,000 --> 00:32:03,000
Four hits for 49 at bat.
365
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,000
Right hand hitter.
366
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:16,000
Forge, slow curve, picks up the outside for a ball strike.
367
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:21,000
Left hand there works, curve ball is in there again, strike two, right over.
368
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:29,000
Tuck the heart of it.
369
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:39,000
Fitches, there's a fast ball on the outside, ball one.
370
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:43,000
Whitey standing out in the front.
371
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,000
Fives a great deal, loses considerable weight when he pitches.
372
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:51,000
There's a foul tipped.
373
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:55,000
He was swinging on a sinker.
374
00:32:55,000 --> 00:33:02,000
And Lampman, he thought of twisting his right arm as though he pulled something back behind the shoulder blade.
375
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:09,000
Now he moves in.
376
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:14,000
0-1 and 2, board works, strikes three called.
377
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,000
He gets the flatter on the outside.
378
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,000
Lampman walks away.
379
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:31,000
Whitey's first crack out today.
380
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:45,000
The margin of Sasquatch at 185 each.
381
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,000
Now we have Temple to start the game with a double.
382
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:56,000
Takes a quick curve in for a call strike.
383
00:33:56,000 --> 00:34:06,000
Down hitting 282, a full change of pace and he checked his swing.
384
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:14,000
One ball, one strike.
385
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:20,000
When Whitey throws that full change, the ball drastically drops.
386
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:28,000
It reacts, scares to be a screwball as a curve inside ball two.
387
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,000
Whitey says, no it is not a screwball.
388
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:35,000
He says, because I do not give my hand the reverse twist.
389
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:43,000
It may look like it, he says, but it's not.
390
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:51,000
Two on pitch, one on line foul outside left field.
391
00:34:51,000 --> 00:35:16,000
Two and two.
392
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:25,000
And a deal.
393
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:31,000
So that gives Whitey two strikeouts, 186 for the season.
394
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,000
And the score at the end of the inning and a half, first game,
395
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:37,000
Cleveland to New York nothing.
396
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,000
Today more and more motorists are enjoying better engine performance
397
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,000
thanks to Atlantic Imperial Gasoline.
398
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:49,000
Now you can try Atlantic Imperial in your own car without risking an extra penny.
399
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:54,000
How? With Atlantic's 100 gallon clean carburetor test.
400
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:59,000
Every time you buy Atlantic Imperial, get a receipt from your dealer.
401
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:05,000
Then after 100 gallons, if you're not satisfied with generally better engine performance,
402
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:08,000
return those receipts to Atlantic.
403
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:13,000
We'll send you the difference in cost between 100 gallons of Atlantic Imperial
404
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:17,000
and regular gasoline, no questions asked.
405
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:46,000
Start using Atlantic Imperial today.
406
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,000
Well, Mickey Mantle steps in.
407
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,000
Now just let out a roar.
408
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,000
He made his way to the plate.
409
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,000
He gets right-handed Lapland.
410
00:36:55,000 --> 00:37:05,000
Cleveland, Mickey of course, switches, batting left-handed.
411
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:08,000
Mantle hitting 324.
412
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:13,000
Swings and fouls it back.
413
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:19,000
It's a sharp curve. He broke right down in there.
414
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:24,000
2-0 and third above the Indians.
415
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:25,000
Wally Moses goes to the first.
416
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:43,000
Funk says Eddie is third for New York. Pack ball is high outside. 1-1.
417
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:49,000
They do not overshift the jacket into right on Mickey as they do on Roger.
418
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:58,000
The third is outside ball too.
419
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:01,000
Lapland with the winningest percentage of Indians at Cleveland.
420
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:11,000
12-4.
421
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:19,000
Right-hander Dio and Mantle swings it the long drive to left center.
422
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:20,000
There's Fantoma going back.
423
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:21,000
Fantoma is in the cross.
424
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,000
He'll take it around first and then into second base.
425
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,000
He's on his way to third.
426
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:30,000
And he'll poke the ball in and Mantle flies ahead of it for a triple.
427
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:34,000
And third base, Magella Hawes jumps up and puts up the ball.
428
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,000
Mantle was not looking to bat.
429
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:49,000
Running down to third base, the Cleveland manager.
430
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:55,000
Mantle was in there just a quick second ahead of the crow from the strong-armed trucks upheld.
431
00:38:55,000 --> 00:39:00,000
And then Della Hawes claimed and then the bike went down to back him up.
432
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:05,000
But Mantle in his fly didn't quite get third base.
433
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:10,000
But Charlie Barry, who was right in position to do it, says yes he did.
434
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:14,000
So it is a triple for Mantle deep in the left center off Fantoma's drive.
435
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:20,000
He went back as far as he could.
436
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:25,000
So this is the first Yankee hit.
437
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:33,000
So Mantle left his sixth triple and here is John Blanchard hitting a 3-11.
438
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,000
He has nobody out.
439
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:39,000
Lasts the second inning.
440
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,000
That's still caught right on Blanchard.
441
00:39:42,000 --> 00:40:06,000
He's got the ball to right field.
442
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:27,000
That's the 20th home run.
443
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:31,000
So the Yankees driving for a new team total of home runs.
444
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:37,000
At 217, the old mark is 221, and here's Howard.
445
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,000
Takes the curve for a call strike.
446
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:44,000
Elston with his magnificent percentage of 362.
447
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,000
Blanchard gets that ball in the third deck.
448
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:50,000
The only thing he had to wait to be sure is state pay-off.
449
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:57,000
Curve is strike two, half swing.
450
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:02,000
Boom, triple on the home run, ball even, 2-2.
451
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:09,000
Howard is still buzzing.
452
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,000
Next three, sidearm curve ball.
453
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:17,000
Howard is struck out.
454
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:28,000
Unless the weather interferes, the last three days of the year,
455
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:33,000
this is the last double header for the stadium, this is the last one scheduled.
456
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,000
And the crowd is out here to see it.
457
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:42,000
There's Gowan swinging, hits the ball to right field, and two for a face-hit.
458
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:48,000
Hits the wall on the face-out, the Moose comes in the second base with a double.
459
00:41:48,000 --> 00:42:03,000
Boy, they didn't leave that back in the clubhouse.
460
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:10,000
So the Moose hit a line drive right up the alleyway in right center field.
461
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:19,000
Now they have Boya third baseman.
462
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:36,000
Yankee's the one that'll last ten.
463
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:42,000
Check the runner in second, one down, Boya hits a curve with a high foul up by first base.
464
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:50,000
Power comes over, close to the stands, and makes the catch.
465
00:42:50,000 --> 00:43:06,000
Now Whitey Ford a moment ago was behind two-nothing, and now he walks up to the plate, even.
466
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:12,000
Whitey has 16 hits.
467
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:24,000
Gowan was two out, he's down on second.
468
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:37,000
Curve is into the dirt, and Romano blocks it with his chest, ball one.
469
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:52,000
Boy, they have some fellows in this lineup that can really hit that ball.
470
00:43:52,000 --> 00:44:06,000
This is inside, ball two.
471
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:11,000
Two-nothing pitch in their first strike.
472
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:16,000
Blanchett has become a very remarkable ball player this year.
473
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:29,000
I've just asked our statistician Bill Kane to do a little medical formula.
474
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:33,000
Two-one pitch, high, ball three.
475
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:40,000
He's going to figure out for the ratio of Blanchett's home runs four times at bat,
476
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:46,000
contrasted with Madeline Marrott's, because here's Blanchett with 20.
477
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:50,000
I can tell you this, right now, he won't do it.
478
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,000
Let's see, he's got a 50 to Whitey, three-one.
479
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:55,000
He does, gets it over for the strike.
480
00:44:55,000 --> 00:45:04,000
Madeline has been up 479 times in her 52 home runs.
481
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:10,000
Marrott has been up 521 times in her 56.
482
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,000
These are official at bat.
483
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,000
Whitey swings, hits the ball through the middle.
484
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:29,000
The base hit, down the coming around third, and scores, and the Yankees go ahead, three-two, and Whitey puts himself one up.
485
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:37,000
Now Blanchett has been up officially 197 times in her 20 home runs.
486
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:45,000
Now, so Whitey Ford puts himself ahead three-two, with a single through the middle, his 17th hit.
487
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:48,000
He's an excellent hitting pitcher.
488
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:54,000
And for Whitey, that's his ninth run by today.
489
00:45:54,000 --> 00:46:01,000
Now, we've got Richardson up there, lost in the first inning.
490
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:07,000
Wings and hits the pitcher, and the ball comes down to left field, fourth stop to second base.
491
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:13,000
Richardson's line drives, struck Lappman on the right side of his body.
492
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:16,000
It caught him in the midst of his follow-through.
493
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,000
He couldn't move his hand.
494
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:21,000
It hit him, I think, right around the wrist.
495
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:25,000
But it happened so fast, it could have hit him in the stomach.
496
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:39,000
And there's the trainer running out, stops the run out, and then the pitcher says, no.
497
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:46,000
Wally Park, the trainer now is going out, told him to go out there and see whether that ball hit Lappman.
498
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:52,000
And it ricocheted through the hole between third and third into left field.
499
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:56,000
The trainer talking to the pitcher.
500
00:46:56,000 --> 00:47:01,000
He actually hit him.
501
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:12,000
The Yankees have come up now with five base hits here in the last second.
502
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:15,000
Crisetti reminding forward on his second two-man route.
503
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,000
Here's Kubek at the plate.
504
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,000
Wings and hits the ball down to right field line.
505
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:24,000
It is Brown Roo's double, bounce it in.
506
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:25,000
Ford scores.
507
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:27,000
Richardson has held third.
508
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:32,000
And Dyches is on his way out to the mound.
509
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:35,000
Maris will hit back the ninth man in the inning.
510
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:41,000
Where's number nine?
511
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:47,000
Brown Roo's double for Tony.
512
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:53,000
Here's him 43 runs by the band.
513
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:56,000
Yankees four on the Indians two.
514
00:47:56,000 --> 00:48:06,000
Cleveland got out in front two-nothing, and then the Yankees on their second opportunity.
515
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:13,000
Started backing Lappman.
516
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:17,000
Here's a funny situation.
517
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:19,000
There's a new pitcher coming in for Cleveland.
518
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:23,000
When the manager goes out to remove the pitcher, you know he's going to do it when he says,
519
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:24,000
give me the ball.
520
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:27,000
And the man who takes the ball away from the pitcher, that's it.
521
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:31,000
Dyches goes out there, but the ball, Kubek gets bounced in the right field stand,
522
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:34,000
and you know these spectators don't throw him back.
523
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:40,000
So all of a sudden Dyches wants the ball.
524
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:43,000
He wants the ball to change, and also he wants to hand the ball to the new pitcher,
525
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:50,000
and he has to come down the plate out far to get it.
526
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:52,000
This is Bobby Locke walking in.
527
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:55,000
He's relieved previously in this series.
528
00:48:55,000 --> 00:49:05,000
So Lappman is running.
529
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:09,000
Locke has gotten the ball from Dyches.
530
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:12,000
Lappman has walked away.
531
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:13,000
It is 4-2 for the Yankees.
532
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,000
Runners are at second and third.
533
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:21,000
Two men are out.
534
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:24,000
The inning has lasted 12 minutes.
535
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:30,000
Because I know we started around 2.30.
536
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:32,000
The man has stepped in.
537
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:34,000
I thought, well, I'll wait and make the station break.
538
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:36,000
End of the second inning.
539
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:42,000
Haven't got the end of the second inning yet.
540
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:46,000
Maritz on his birthday is 27.
541
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:50,000
In the first inning he hit a routine fly ball to the right fielder.
542
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:52,000
Now Bill Kane worked out these figures.
543
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:58,000
Mantle this year is hitting a home run every nine official at bat.
544
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:03,000
Maritz is hitting a home run every nine and three tenths official at bat.
545
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:09,000
And Mantle is hitting a home run every nine and eight tenths official at bat.
546
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:13,000
So I would say generally they're about hitting in the same tempo.
547
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:25,000
When you get into the back of that decimal point it doesn't mean very much.
548
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:32,000
In case you wonder about the stuff in the ad-bass between Mantle and Maritz,
549
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:48,000
it tells you that Maritz gets more balls to swing at as far as they walk Mantle.
550
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:52,000
Well, here's Maritz up there.
551
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:56,000
The photographer has zeroed in on him.
552
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:03,000
There's a lot of eyes out here too, boy.
553
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,000
4-2 for everybody Yankees.
554
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,000
There's a curve in for a call strike.
555
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:21,000
Probably locked at the right-hander.
556
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:34,000
Maritz is on 116 walks this year, Maritz 82.
557
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,000
There's a ground ball hit through the left side for a fake hit.
558
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:38,000
Richardson is scoring.
559
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:40,000
Here's Hubeck coming in to score.
560
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:44,000
And Maritz will lead the league and run right at end.
561
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:51,000
Poffey drives in two more to lift his total to 132.
562
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:55,000
Yankees are now out in about 62.
563
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:58,000
And Mantle, who started the inning, is coming up for the second time.
564
00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:03,000
He started with a tremendous triple to the opposite field in the left center.
565
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:06,000
So a single to the opposite field to Maritz, single to the left,
566
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:09,000
picks up these two runners.
567
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:12,000
Those runs are charged to Lachman.
568
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:15,000
Maritz, of course, is the responsibility of the Leafsman lock,
569
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:21,000
and Mantle takes a front ball hit on his hand.
570
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:40,000
Mickey Hubeck with a sudden run there, just as it was right on top of him.
571
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:48,000
There's a low end side ball, too.
572
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:57,000
Yankees six runs and seven hits here in the last of the second.
573
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:05,000
Now it's the first phase.
574
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:11,000
Mickey swings at a high curve ball, like one.
575
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:14,000
Mantle has 156 hits.
576
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:26,000
Maritz has 142.
577
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:31,000
Mickey hitting 324, swinging on fouls of the back.
578
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:35,000
Well, let's see, we haven't added in his base hit here in the second,
579
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:37,000
so he's won a two-point bet.
580
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:41,000
He'll see 25 or 26.
581
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:59,000
All right, 22.
582
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:07,000
Right-hander delivers way outside, ball free.
583
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:25,000
Motion on the scoreboard, welcome Amateurville New York State County match camp.
584
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:38,000
162, favorably, thank you, Miss, second inning up third, as all four, Mantle lost.
585
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,000
Now we have Blanchard.
586
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:52,000
We call it Mantle's triple for the home run in the second inning, which started.
587
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:54,000
Blanchard getting on the end.
588
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:57,000
Think about that punch right through there.
589
00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:00,000
Maritz Mantle, Blanchard, Howard.
590
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:04,000
How would you like to pitch to that quartet?
591
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:14,000
Blanchard left-hand hitter, way high outside, ball one.
592
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:17,000
Block wants another base ball.
593
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:22,000
Played on par, Yvonne, accommodation.
594
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:26,000
Nothing in the rule that says an umpire has got to give a pitcher another ball,
595
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:30,000
and there's nothing in the rule that says he hasn't got to.
596
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:42,000
The umpire says it's a matter of keeping peace in the family.
597
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:46,000
Low, ball two.
598
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:50,000
In other words, as long as the request for another ball is kept within a reasonable limit,
599
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:52,000
the umpires are honoring.
600
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:55,000
But of course, they have the authority because they run the ballgames.
601
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:58,000
They thought that a, you know, let's say a pitcher, for example, rejected a half of that,
602
00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:00,000
and the stuff is just being silly.
603
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:07,000
They can make him pitch to the one.
604
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:14,000
Two-nothing delivery is high outside, ball three.
605
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:17,000
That's the same thing if a batter has to have a ball examined,
606
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:22,000
the umpires will honor it if it's reasonable.
607
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:26,000
But I remember out here the last time the Yankees were home,
608
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,000
Charlie Burrows, Dr. LaFlate, and I always wanted a ball examined.
609
00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:31,000
And Burrows says, no, I just examined it.
610
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:33,000
So all right.
611
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:36,000
Then Marik hit it for a home run.
612
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:37,000
That's a swing.
613
00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:40,000
There's a five-ball to straightaway center with just all the weight.
614
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:42,000
Makes the catch.
615
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:51,000
So 11 men batted, and six of them scored, and that was seven hits.
616
00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:54,000
Two men were left.
617
00:56:54,000 --> 00:57:03,000
So at the end of two innings of the first game, it is 6-7-0 for the Yankees, 2-4-0 for the Indians.
618
00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:06,000
I hope you'll use Atlantic Imperial in your car.
619
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:30,000
It's the gasoline that cleans your carburetor as you drive and keeps it clean.
620
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:37,000
Bob Shepard on the 3A is speaking about when the Yankees are next home last week of the season,
621
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:42,000
Tuesday night, the 26th with Baltimore on the next afternoon,
622
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:48,000
Friday night, the 29th with the Red Sox in the next two afternoons.
623
00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:54,000
The Red Sox at the end of two innings are leading the Tigers 6-0.
624
00:57:54,000 --> 00:58:00,000
The Yankees have hit a home run.
625
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:10,000
At the end, two and a half innings is Baltimore 1-0, the Baltimore run, a home run by France.
626
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:14,000
Other games in the league will be coming in later.
627
00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:16,000
The National League is going now.
628
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:23,000
Philadelphia leads the Chicago 1-0 at the end of the first inning on Callison's home run for the Phillies.
629
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:28,000
Our old friend Tom Settement is starting for Pittsburgh and Milwaukee against Warren Fawn.
630
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:34,000
Settement has won five and lost one since coming up with the power.
631
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:38,000
Fawn is going to win number 307.
632
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:41,000
He's amazing, isn't he?
633
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:46,000
The Cottonwoods have had their first setback at Cincinnati and got a run out of it.
634
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,000
Kentucky against Perky.
635
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:51,000
But Sangley is coming in later from San Francisco.
636
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:56,000
Now Jim Pearsall, who was thrown out by Trostoff-Cuback, is first up in the third.
637
00:58:56,000 --> 00:59:00,000
The board out there now with a four-run ball, six-two game.
638
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:04,000
A curve is hit inside third down the left field corner for a base knock.
639
00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:07,000
Pearsall's around first. He's on his way to second.
640
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:17,000
Here comes a throw and Pearsall is face.
641
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:23,000
And here he is making a remonstrance with Bob Stewart.
642
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:27,000
It is a double for Pearsall.
643
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:32,000
Richardson was sending garlic for his second base, although there wouldn't be any so.
644
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:36,000
And then, uh, Sanuena got the throw. He snapped it.
645
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:40,000
So Pearsall gets the double.
646
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:44,000
Double to left.
647
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:50,000
Two-and-a-five off-righting. And here is Francona.
648
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:54,000
Tito hitting 292.
649
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,000
Takes the flat up for a called strike.
650
00:59:56,000 --> 01:00:01,000
Doesn't need on the outside.
651
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:09,000
Pearsall averages 150th hit this year. He's having quite a season.
652
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:12,000
That's your foot right on Tito, who crouches very much.
653
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:15,000
Hits the ball in the right field on the line. Base hit.
654
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:22,000
Marich takes on the first skip and Pearsall is held at third base for two reasons.
655
01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:29,000
One, when you're behind four runs, you can't be risky running.
656
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:35,000
And two, Marich is on.
657
01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:41,000
He only have runners at first and third.
658
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:44,000
This is six hits off-righting.
659
01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:51,000
Cleveland is taking more liberties with a little left-hander than they usually permit.
660
01:00:51,000 --> 01:00:54,000
The Yankees have the bullpen up again.
661
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:58,000
They had Coach Stamperger going down there in the first inning.
662
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:04,000
There's John Romano, who's single in the first inning and not going to run.
663
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:22,000
Takes the curve low inside, ball one.
664
01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:34,000
Is now throwing in the bullpen. Has a curve hit foul between the coach and third base.
665
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:36,000
One and one.
666
01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:38,000
That's the count of runners at first and third.
667
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:44,000
Nobody out here in the third.
668
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:47,000
Cleveland roughed up Whitey for two runs and four hits in the first inning.
669
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:59,000
He got the start out in the second, but now the first two minutes have hit him here in the third.
670
01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:03,000
There's a trickle ball up toward third base and he goes foul.
671
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:10,000
Pearsall was not going to try and score.
672
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:12,000
One ball, two strikes.
673
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:14,000
Romano would cross first.
674
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:17,000
He couldn't wait to have the two other balls with the fair foul.
675
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:30,000
He had to run. He was walking back.
676
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:50,000
The Yankees run. They're all charged to the starter, Latham.
677
01:02:50,000 --> 01:03:02,000
Whitey looking at the baseball. There's Roy Wood counting the 50.
678
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:28,000
The pitch is a little outside. Ball two. Two and two.
679
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:39,000
For D.O., the curve swung on ground to foul, back at third.
680
01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:49,000
Whitey is taking more time today than is customary for him.
681
01:03:49,000 --> 01:04:01,000
But now he's got this big lead. He would like the best in the world to at least get five innings in and have some of the lead left.
682
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:11,000
Under the existing rules, a starting pitcher cannot be credited with a win unless he pitches five innings.
683
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:17,000
Delivers and has the ball that has hit out into short left center field and is dropping toward base hit between Kubeck and Mantle.
684
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:21,000
This ball is home to make it now six to three.
685
01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:35,000
Front corner stops at second and here comes Hough going out to the mound.
686
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:42,000
Hough takes the glass out of his bullpen.
687
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:52,000
He is talking to Whitey. Hough so far hasn't made any motion.
688
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:59,000
There is one thing about Whitey Ford. He is completely candid and forthrightly honest.
689
01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:05,000
For example, if a manager comes out and says, how do you feel Ford will tell it?
690
01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:20,000
Exactly, because I've heard Whitey say many times that the responsibility to the team is so important that it is up to you to tell the manager always exactly how you feel and then let him make the decision.
691
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:27,000
And Hough points to the bullpen. So this will be all for Whitey and he cannot be a pitcher of record.
692
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:31,000
He can either win or lose.
693
01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:45,000
I think it was apparent from the very start of the ball game, the very first hitter, that his stuff was simply not alive.
694
01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:54,000
So that's three runs and seven hits off Whitey. He's responsible for these two runners.
695
01:05:54,000 --> 01:06:08,000
He's been two runs today, gives him a total of 74.
696
01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:14,000
Long Jim Coates is now being announced and he's walking across right field.
697
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:29,000
This is Coach's ball game to win or lose. He has 10 and 5. This is his 30-H ball game and he has been a two-way pitcher this year, both starting and out of the pins.
698
01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:42,000
Ford gets a hand as he walks off. So yesterday was Ford Day and today is.
699
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:45,000
And in the third game, they were the Yankees.
700
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:53,000
The Gossett Cleveland cloud is just so hot in the back of the neck you could buy an egg.
701
01:06:53,000 --> 01:07:02,000
They've lost 16 straight games to the Yankees here at the stadium and if you don't think that's not putting the ball under the saddle blanket, you've got another thought coming.
702
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:04,000
Now Hough is going back into the dugout.
703
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:22,000
Coates is checking his battery times with Howard and speaking of checking, we will call us for station identification.
704
01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:29,000
Good sound broadcasting for 1961. This is Quality Modern, WOKO Albany, New York.
705
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:41,000
We'll send you OKO time, two minutes before 3 p.m.
706
01:07:41,000 --> 01:08:05,000
Howard has done absolutely yeoman service this year. He has been a laboring man and by pitching every fourth day and with remarkable success and with strong assists when necessary from a royal, it has made possible the rebuilding of a pitching staff.
707
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:15,000
For example, the spring training camp, you certainly counted on Curling, you counted on Dipmaw.
708
01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:27,000
So suddenly, they were ineffective. Something had to be done and had to be done in the course of the season.
709
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:30,000
A great test of managing the house.
710
01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:50,000
But now that Ford has done so much work, I would say that the number one consideration about him from now on is to get him tuned up for the World Series.
711
01:08:50,000 --> 01:09:02,000
All right. Jim Coates is ready to go ahead to Willie Ketlin who is singled in the first inning and knocked in a run. Yankee is getting 6-3, runners at first and second. We have nobody out.
712
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:28,000
There's inside, too close to the belt, ball one.
713
01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:40,000
There's the service. There's a sharp curve. That's the flattest one on a miss down across the shins.
714
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:53,000
Coates went the roof against Washington five days ago. Gave him one run, four hits. One intense game then.
715
01:09:53,000 --> 01:10:05,000
There's a curve that is fouled up. Howard is getting under it. Two-thirds of the way back to the stands and has it for the first time.
716
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:15,000
So, one down. Foul ball to the catcher. And they're going to now it's Howard.
717
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:23,000
That's a very severe crowd. With the outfield laid back in the right, he dropped a double inside the left field line.
718
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:37,000
First inning. Getting 2-65. 6-3 New York. Yankees had a six-run explosion in the second.
719
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:48,000
Fast ball is going on late foul ball. I'll say this, the coach is the very antithesis of Ford as far as pitching equipment goes.
720
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:56,000
By the way, our stocky left-hander who is using breaking stuff today, not throwing hard.
721
01:10:56,000 --> 01:11:10,000
And coach is all in hungry face right-hander who throws hard.
722
01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:20,000
Jim ready. This ball came to win. You can hold it.
723
01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:26,000
It's here. It's going on as the ball hit out the right field. It may be trouble. It is.
724
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:55,000
Oh, bold run. It still took the game to win, but he's got no lead.
725
01:11:55,000 --> 01:12:03,000
That ball failed in the lower right field fan. Not 10 feet fair. Coach first. Badly shook his head.
726
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:13,000
It is now 6-6. The first five runs charged to Whitey. The sixth one charged to Coates.
727
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:22,000
Now we have Woody Held. One man out. Fast ball slightly high inside. Ball one.
728
01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:30,000
Held hit a line drive with Maddell one-handed coming in in the first inning.
729
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:35,000
All right, 6-6.
730
01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:44,000
Serves one run and misses. Strike one. One ball, one strike.
731
01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:54,000
It's going to be a rough afternoon, doesn't it?
732
01:12:54,000 --> 01:13:00,000
It's all right-handed deals. High curve ball. It's too high. Ball two.
733
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:15,000
All right. So a poem. That's his fifth home run this year. He's run about it in a total of 61.
734
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:22,000
Two-one delivery. Swung on as a high foul ball up alongside third. Boy, a hundred.
735
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:32,000
Two-catch. Two-thirds of the way over to the stands. And we have two-ups.
736
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:39,000
Third baseman Delahose. There's a playing in place of Phillips.
737
01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:56,000
He got hit on the hand early in this series.
738
01:13:56,000 --> 01:14:10,000
Swung on as a line drive over short and to left center for a base hit. Delahose goes around first base and save. Maddell quickly recovers the ball, throws it in.
739
01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:26,000
Single to left center. Now, this gets the lead pitcher Locke as the hitter, and it is Locke's ball game to win or lose.
740
01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:30,000
This game is good for back and forth. First it was 2-0 Cleveland. Then it was 6-2 New York.
741
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:41,000
And by the time that Locke came in, it looked as though he would just be sort of the expendable long man out of the both hands.
742
01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:51,000
And now all of a sudden, here we go head-to-head. 6-6.
743
01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:54,000
This is the eighth man to bat for save on here in the third inning.
744
01:14:54,000 --> 01:15:01,000
The hitter is the coach, takes the sign from Howard. Delahose leads off first. Locke, the right-hand hitter.
745
01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:10,000
Swings at a curve, hits it to short. Two-back runs over, steps on second for the unassisted course, and that is the third-up.
746
01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:29,000
But before that happens, four runs, five hits, and the score at the end of two-and-a-half innings is Cleveland 6 and New York 6.
747
01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:39,000
If your car performance if it were several years older than it really is, well even a new car can't give you a smooth, even ride with a dirty carburetor.
748
01:15:39,000 --> 01:15:47,000
That's where Atlantic Imperial gasoline comes in. It cleans your carburetor as you drive and keeps it clean.
749
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:56,000
And this is very important. You see, under ordinary driving conditions, harmful deposits can form around the lower carburetor walls.
750
01:15:56,000 --> 01:16:05,000
In time, these deposits can affect the action of the throttle plate, cause rough idling, frequent stalling, and gasoline waste.
751
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:16,000
But not when you use Atlantic Imperial. It washes these deposits harmlessly away and with continued use keeps the new deposits from forming.
752
01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:38,000
I hope you will use Atlantic Imperial in your car. It's the gasoline that cleans your carburetor as you drive and then keeps it clean.
753
01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:46,000
The last half of the third inning. Howard first up, then Schauer and then Boyer. Bobby Locks will replace Lappman.
754
01:16:46,000 --> 01:17:04,000
He's now the pitcher of record at 6-6 ball game. The two starters are off the hook. As the ground ball hit up to a third, Delahoe's grab that puts it in the first place plenty of time and Howard is out.
755
01:17:04,000 --> 01:17:20,000
Now has Schauer removed it to double the right set on the second inning. Getting 273.
756
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:38,000
Locks field, fastball low inside, ball one. Bobby Locks from Grindstone, Pennsylvania. It always strikes me as an interesting name for a town.
757
01:17:38,000 --> 01:18:02,000
Now that's going on and bow right back into the test protector. So you don't bow your mind. One and one. Mosin on the scoreboard. First quarter score. Baltimore Colts, 28, New York Giants, 13.
758
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:09,000
And one pitch. There's the ball bounced high. The pitcher has to wait for it to come down. He grabs it close. The person's Schauer and he's out.
759
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:17,000
Howard using that one hand all the time down at first.
760
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:44,000
And now I've cleared it for you. All for one. Ball game hanging 6-6. Eight teams taking turns beating on the other.
761
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:48,000
Pitch, curve ball in there.
762
01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:58,000
Now football season is opening early and earlier.
763
01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:09,000
There's a fastball going on in this. One thing that's done is it has divided up sports and outings.
764
01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:22,000
It used to be that you did baseball and then did football. Maybe you'd have an overlap for one day as a ground foul. Most two, which you could work out.
765
01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:39,000
Now it's getting with specialization even more keenly noted. Baseball announcer, I can't get away to do football and fight first.
766
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:58,000
Got two sets of our five. Two strike sets, fastball high and five. Ball one. One ball, two strikes.
767
01:19:58,000 --> 01:20:12,000
One and two.
768
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:26,000
Two down. Lock throw card delivers. There's a curve ball fouled off.
769
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:36,000
There's been a correction that has come in on the printer about the big ball game at Cincinnati. The Cardinals were first credited with a run.
770
01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:41,000
The correction is they didn't get it and Cincinnati has got a run at the end of two innings and leading one-nothing.
771
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:47,000
There's a high foul back out of play. One ball, two strikes.
772
01:20:47,000 --> 01:21:00,000
The game tonight is first place Cincinnati one and St. Louis nothing at the end of two.
773
01:21:00,000 --> 01:21:06,000
End of an inning, Pittsburgh is leading Milwaukee three-nothing. Those runs belong to our old friend Tom Stedeman.
774
01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:18,000
Curve fouled off from the upper left field stand. End of three innings, the Red Sox who were close this season here the last three days are leading Detroit six to nothing.
775
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:45,000
In the four, Baltimore is leading Washington two-nothing. Baltimore is driving to take second place away from the Tigers. I mean driving.
776
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:53,000
Lock one and two with William.
777
01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:58,000
There's another foul back, still one and two.
778
01:21:58,000 --> 01:22:13,000
Baltimore is three games back at Detroit. If you don't want to go get them on in paper.
779
01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:19,000
You might with all these foul balls is having to.
780
01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:25,000
No, no, no, no, what is it? I thought he was going to call for some more baseballs. He's calling for the trainer.
781
01:22:25,000 --> 01:22:30,000
Just come out, come up there and see boy his left hand. Apparently maybe he's pulled a blister.
782
01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:46,000
How does that do that? He's putting a piece of tape on the left hand.
783
01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:55,000
Let me see now. I think it's the index finger. Now Ramon moves between us. Now he moves away. Thank you, John.
784
01:22:55,000 --> 01:23:10,000
Now let's take a look. Hold your hand out. We'll see where that bandage went.
785
01:23:10,000 --> 01:23:29,000
All right, one ball, two strikes. There is a curve bowed off. Still one and two.
786
01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:40,000
Six, six ball game. He's stuck him out for the high inside flat. So it is one, two, three.
787
01:23:40,000 --> 01:23:50,000
And at the end of three, the total is a six, nine, all for the Indians and six, seven, all for the Yankees.
788
01:23:50,000 --> 01:23:58,000
Now Phil, our statistician Bill Kane has been very cooperative this year, but I asked him to do something just now
789
01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:04,000
and he sadly refused and I wondered if you would do it. What's that? I wanted to go down and ask
790
01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:10,000
how, what happened with that six to two lead? I'm like Bill Kane, I'm not going to do it.
791
01:24:10,000 --> 01:24:18,000
Well he said I doubt if I'd get back and if I did you couldn't use his answer. Out throw.
792
01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:29,000
That must be just about talked out. Twelve runs and sixteen hits in three innings. Man, this looks like one of those days.
793
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:38,000
Have a little candlelight dinner tonight, about twelve thirty. I figure we'll have a long day at the ballpark.
794
01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:43,000
On the scoreboard of the American League, it's Red Sox six, Detroit nothing at the end of three.
795
01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:51,000
Coplitz replaced Marcy in the third, Connelly for the Red Sox. Billy Broden is just home in the fourth, that makes it six, one.
796
01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:57,000
Jashrimski home in the second with one on for the Red Sox. Baltimore two, Washington nothing at the end of three and a half.
797
01:24:57,000 --> 01:25:05,000
McLean against the Strada. Jackie Brand and Brooks Robinson of home in. Chicago at L.A. has not started. Minnesota at Kansas City hasn't started.
798
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:10,000
National League, Philly's one, Cubs nothing at the end of two. Roberts against Cardwell, Taliesin home in.
799
01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:15,000
Pittsburgh three, Milwaukee nothing at the end of an inning and a half. Sturtevant against Fawn.
800
01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:24,000
Cincinnati one, Cardinals nothing at the end of two and a half. Tadecki against Turkey. Los Angeles and San Francisco not underway.
801
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:31,000
Johnny Temple up for his third time in the ballgame here in the top of the fourth. He doubled and scored in the first, struck out in the second.
802
01:25:31,000 --> 01:25:39,000
Jim Coates replaced Whitey Ford, fires a fastball right in there, strike call.
803
01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:49,000
On deck, Jimmy Pearsaw.
804
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:54,000
Curve fouls and going out of play down the right field line, nothing in two.
805
01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:57,000
Man, look at that first score to score.
806
01:25:57,000 --> 01:26:04,000
Baltimore Colts 28, New York Giants 13. They're playing up in the Yale Bowl.
807
01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:18,000
That's equivalent to this score here in the third inning of 6-6. A lot of score.
808
01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:23,000
Nothing in two on Temple.
809
01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:29,000
Wind up by Coates, fastball high inside ball one.
810
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:36,000
Got a real good crowd here today.
811
01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:43,000
Never really expected this much, but the fans so interested in the Madel Maris race for home run honors that they're coming out.
812
01:26:43,000 --> 01:27:06,000
Curve misses outside two and two.
813
01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:18,000
All right, Coates ready for the 2-2 delivery. There it is, and it's a foul back in the upper deck out of play.
814
01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:33,000
Out holds it two and two.
815
01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:48,000
Nobody out, nobody on, top of the fourth.
816
01:27:48,000 --> 01:28:00,000
Again the 2-2 delivery. Curve is high, ball three, three and two.
817
01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:04,000
Temple batting 281.
818
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:14,000
He's been having a pretty good series against the Yankees.
819
01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:20,000
Now the payoff bet. Inside ball four.
820
01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:28,000
That's the first walk given up by Yankee pitches in the ball game. Whitey Ford who went two innings didn't walk anybody.
821
01:28:28,000 --> 01:28:38,000
Brings up Jimmy Pearsall, bounce the short, double the left field and scores.
822
01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:44,000
Jimmy hit one right inside third base and Blanchett played it perfectly off the wall, made a good throw to second.
823
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:51,000
And there was a little dispute on the call at second base. It was close, but Pearsall just beat the tag.
824
01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:58,000
Pitch to Jimmy, pitch out outside ball one.
825
01:28:58,000 --> 01:29:04,000
Elston Howard figured that Pearsall and Temple might have the hit and run on.
826
01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:10,000
On deck, Tito Francona.
827
01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:16,000
Temple leading away. Fast ball over, strike call one-on-one.
828
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:22,000
Boyer is playing way in at third.
829
01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:33,000
Garron holding first against Temple.
830
01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:39,000
Time is called by Johnny Temple at first base.
831
01:29:39,000 --> 01:29:49,000
Wanted Pearsall to step out of the batter's box. They recheck the signal for a third base coach, Luke Apling.
832
01:29:49,000 --> 01:30:01,000
Now everybody ready to go.
833
01:30:01,000 --> 01:30:13,000
Al Renof is up in the Yankee both end. Quick throw to first, Temple back.
834
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:23,000
Here's the stretch. Curve hit in the ground at second base. Richardson to Kubek for one, back to first, double play. They got them.
835
01:30:23,000 --> 01:30:29,000
The Yankees' 162nd double play of the year.
836
01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:37,000
Boyer Richardson made a pretty play on that ball. As he caught it, he had to flip it backhanded and sort of underhand it to Kubek.
837
01:30:37,000 --> 01:30:44,000
Couldn't get too much on it, but Tony came across the bag and fired the first and then Pearsall.
838
01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:52,000
Throw it two out, and here's Francona flying to right, single to right. Tito scored one.
839
01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:57,000
Last year, the Yankees had only 160 double plays all year.
840
01:30:57,000 --> 01:31:16,000
First pitch to Francona is ball one, rolled back to the screen. And already this year, the Yankees have 162.
841
01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:23,000
Two out, nobody on. Wind up by Coates.
842
01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:29,000
Fastball line down the left field line. That's in there for extra bases, rolling down in the corner.
843
01:31:29,000 --> 01:31:35,000
Lanchard picks it up, and Francona's in with a stand-up double.
844
01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:40,000
So again, the big double play that the Yankee infield came up with.
845
01:31:40,000 --> 01:31:43,000
Keeps the run from scoring.
846
01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:50,000
That is the 10th hit for the Indians off Yankee pitching, and it brings up Johnny Romano, who has two of those 10 hits.
847
01:31:50,000 --> 01:31:54,000
He scored twice and driven in two runs.
848
01:31:54,000 --> 01:32:02,000
Mind the single to left, dropped the single in short center field.
849
01:32:02,000 --> 01:32:12,000
Romano now over the 300 mark again, batting at 3-0-1.
850
01:32:12,000 --> 01:32:36,000
Francona's second, score side 6-6. The curve is low and away, ball one.
851
01:32:36,000 --> 01:32:43,000
On deck, Willie Kirkland.
852
01:32:43,000 --> 01:33:08,000
Coates sets. Fastball high and inside, ball two, two-nothing.
853
01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:17,000
All right, here's a stretch by Coates. Fastball fouls right over our heads.
854
01:33:17,000 --> 01:33:34,000
A little too high, though. Two balls, one strike.
855
01:33:34,000 --> 01:33:44,000
Two out, Francona leads off second base.
856
01:33:44,000 --> 01:34:13,000
Right-handed set. Fastball high, ball three, three-and-one.
857
01:34:13,000 --> 01:34:19,000
All right, Coates ready again.
858
01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:42,000
3-1 pitch is a ground foul outside of third. Full count on Romano.
859
01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:46,000
Both starting pitches were knocked out in a hurry.
860
01:34:46,000 --> 01:34:55,000
Gary Lattmann, who started, went an inning and two thirds, and Whitey went two full innings.
861
01:34:55,000 --> 01:35:00,000
Looks like a hitter's day here today at the stadium.
862
01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:05,000
Ready now for the payoff pitch. There it is. It's a curve popped in the air foul,
863
01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:13,000
and Garron's chasing it near the stands, but he can't get it. It goes back about five or six rows.
864
01:35:13,000 --> 01:35:38,000
And the holes are three and two.
865
01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:48,000
All right, Coates ready again.
866
01:35:48,000 --> 01:35:53,000
The run is going. The ball is fouled again over our heads.
867
01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:58,000
And Frank LaFrosia gets one of the easiest foul balls I've ever seen.
868
01:35:58,000 --> 01:36:07,000
It bounced off a few hands, rolled down off the top, took one little bounce, and Frank just picked it up.
869
01:36:07,000 --> 01:36:31,000
So it's still three and two.
870
01:36:31,000 --> 01:36:37,000
And it's stretched by Coates.
871
01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:43,000
Curve swung it, and this strikes three.
872
01:36:43,000 --> 01:36:48,000
So for the Indians in the top of the fourth, no runs, one hit. No Yankees errors, one man left.
873
01:36:48,000 --> 01:36:56,000
At the end of three and a half, Cleveland sixth and the Yankees sixth.
874
01:36:56,000 --> 01:37:01,000
That's new power mowers. Sure looks easy to operate, George. Yeah.
875
01:37:01,000 --> 01:37:05,000
Which our car performed half as well. What's the trouble?
876
01:37:05,000 --> 01:37:10,000
Oh, I don't like a vibrating machine all over the place.
877
01:37:10,000 --> 01:37:12,000
Sounds familiar. Your car the same way?
878
01:37:12,000 --> 01:37:16,000
It used to be. Turned out the carburetor was full of dirt.
879
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:19,000
Oh, what did you do? Clean this, of course.
880
01:37:19,000 --> 01:37:22,000
Hey, that must have been a big job.
881
01:37:22,000 --> 01:37:26,000
I had nothing to it. I just started using Atlantic Imperial gasoline.
882
01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:28,000
What's that got to do with it?
883
01:37:28,000 --> 01:37:30,000
Hey, where have you been?
884
01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:36,000
I thought everybody knew by now that Atlantic Imperial gasoline cleans your carburetor as you drive and keeps it clean.
885
01:37:36,000 --> 01:37:39,000
Atlantic Imperial. And it works for you?
886
01:37:39,000 --> 01:37:41,000
It works for me.
887
01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:45,000
Boy, I'll have to start using Atlantic Imperial gasoline right away.
888
01:37:45,000 --> 01:37:49,000
Meanwhile, back to the grass.
889
01:37:49,000 --> 01:37:55,000
That's one problem Atlantic Imperial can't solve.
890
01:37:55,000 --> 01:38:08,000
Right now let's pause for station identification.
891
01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:14,000
At 1460 on the radio dial, you're in tune with Quality Modern, WOKO, Albany, New York.
892
01:38:14,000 --> 01:38:21,000
Good sound broadcasting for 1961. WOKO time, 27 minutes past 3 p.m.
893
01:38:21,000 --> 01:38:30,000
That, by the way, single the center field or driving a run.
894
01:38:30,000 --> 01:38:43,000
Coast is 1 for 34 batting, 029. Takes the fastball right down the middle. Strike one, crawl. Bobby Locke on the mound.
895
01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:49,000
Pitches of record right now are Bobby Locke for the Indians and Jim Coates for the Yankees.
896
01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:53,000
There's a swing and a miss at a curve. Strike two.
897
01:38:53,000 --> 01:38:59,000
One year, Coates had a great year at the place for the Yankees.
898
01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:04,000
He hit nothing but line drive.
899
01:39:04,000 --> 01:39:11,000
Curve, strike three, crawl. Jim stepped back and the ball broke over.
900
01:39:11,000 --> 01:39:16,000
That's one out here. Here's Bobby Richardson who walked and singled off Barry Latman.
901
01:39:16,000 --> 01:39:23,000
The ball was hit so hard off Latman that it kicked between short and third out to left field.
902
01:39:23,000 --> 01:39:36,000
I don't know whether Barry was injured on that play or not, but after the next man double he was taken out of the ball game.
903
01:39:36,000 --> 01:39:52,000
Hitch to Richardson, taken first strike. Tony Kubek on deck.
904
01:39:52,000 --> 01:39:57,000
One strike fastball inside, one on one.
905
01:39:57,000 --> 01:40:04,000
Cleveland scored two on the first, Yankees scored six on the bottom of the second, and the Indians came back with four on the top of the third.
906
01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:12,000
That's the way it stands now, six-six.
907
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:20,000
Fastball line to right center field, way back there, and that ball is one hop against the right center field wall.
908
01:40:20,000 --> 01:40:24,000
Richardson around first, digging for second and holds up.
909
01:40:24,000 --> 01:40:28,000
And that's a lot of power for little Bobby Richardson in the opposite field.
910
01:40:28,000 --> 01:40:35,000
A ball hit just about 400 feet, one hop against the right center field bleacher wall.
911
01:40:35,000 --> 01:40:41,000
One of the longest doubles that Richardson has ever hit, that's for sure.
912
01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:48,000
That's the second hit off lock, the Yankees' eighth hit of the ball game, and for Richardson his 16th double of the year.
913
01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:56,000
Brings up Tony Kubek, picking up doubles. Tony has 37, leading both major leagues in that department.
914
01:40:56,000 --> 01:41:00,000
He doubled in the second inning after hitting a double play in the first inning.
915
01:41:00,000 --> 01:41:05,000
Tony is driven in one run, adding 279.
916
01:41:05,000 --> 01:41:08,000
Richardson is second with one out.
917
01:41:08,000 --> 01:41:11,000
Stretch to pitch to Kubek is bunned foul and back of the play.
918
01:41:11,000 --> 01:41:19,000
Tony trying to drag one with the right side of the infield playing back.
919
01:41:19,000 --> 01:41:34,000
Richardson hit that ball the way he did in last year's World Series.
920
01:41:34,000 --> 01:41:49,000
On deck, Roger Maris.
921
01:41:49,000 --> 01:41:58,000
Fast ball in the dirt, knocked down by Romano. Bobby holds his second base.
922
01:41:58,000 --> 01:42:09,000
Last year's World Series, Richardson had 11 base hits, two doubles, two triples, one homer, and 12 runs batted in.
923
01:42:09,000 --> 01:42:16,000
He broke records that have been held by sluggers like Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Yogi Berra, Joe DiMaggio.
924
01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:21,000
Fantastic series.
925
01:42:21,000 --> 01:42:33,000
Back side, ready for the 1-1 pitch. A foul out of play in the upper deck and back of third.
926
01:42:33,000 --> 01:42:54,000
One ball, two strikes.
927
01:42:54,000 --> 01:43:03,000
That's a good thing the Yankees have an off day tomorrow the way this ball game is going, and over an hour and a half we haven't played three and a half innings yet.
928
01:43:03,000 --> 01:43:21,000
Fast ball high and tight. Tony sits down at the 2-2 count.
929
01:43:21,000 --> 01:43:29,000
That's Rod Richardson leading off second.
930
01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:32,000
Block ready for his 2-2 delivery.
931
01:43:32,000 --> 01:43:40,000
A fly ball to left field. Keto Frank corner right there and takes it for the second out.
932
01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:54,000
At the last second, Keto had a little trouble with that ball, but he caught it. Here's Roger Maris.
933
01:43:54,000 --> 01:44:05,000
Roger fly to right field in the first inning, single between short and third in the second inning to drive in two runs, giving him a total of 132 RBI.
934
01:44:05,000 --> 01:44:12,000
272. 56 homers.
935
01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:20,000
On deck, Mickey Matos, stretched by a lot. Pitch outside ball one.
936
01:44:20,000 --> 01:44:28,000
When Roger gets a base hit to left field, it's almost as exciting to see him hit a home run.
937
01:44:28,000 --> 01:44:39,000
Very solid as he hit a ball to the left of second base.
938
01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:57,000
Here's a 1-0 pitch. Outside again, ball two, 2-0.
939
01:44:57,000 --> 01:45:10,000
Richardson is second, now has 160 base hits on the air. That's the high of the Yankee hitters.
940
01:45:10,000 --> 01:45:12,000
Ready for the 2-0 pitch.
941
01:45:12,000 --> 01:45:22,000
Fast ball hit, keep to right. And curving foul, holy cow, he missed a home run by inches.
942
01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:29,000
Roger Maris hit a ball that just missed hitting the foul call for number 57.
943
01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:41,000
Roger never left the batter's box trying to use a little body English. And what a line drive he hit. Oh, man.
944
01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:49,000
Oh, that was close.
945
01:45:49,000 --> 01:45:57,000
Two balls, one strike. The stretch curve is a check swing fly ball down the left field line.
946
01:45:57,000 --> 01:46:04,000
And going into the stands out of play, Delahoe has chased it way back. Couldn't catch up to it.
947
01:46:04,000 --> 01:46:11,000
Roger was trying to hold up on that swing.
948
01:46:11,000 --> 01:46:16,000
Johnny Temple runs in from second base to talk with Locke.
949
01:46:16,000 --> 01:46:29,000
That ball went out like a bullet. Didn't have too much chance to curve. It was just pulled a little bit too much.
950
01:46:29,000 --> 01:46:53,000
Two balls, two strikes, two outs. The score tied 6-6. This is the bottom of the fourth inning.
951
01:46:53,000 --> 01:47:15,000
All right, ready for the 2-2 delivery. High and away, ball three.
952
01:47:15,000 --> 01:47:28,000
Now the payoff pitch to Maris. Here it is, and it's a curve fouled in back of the plate. Curved in three and two.
953
01:47:28,000 --> 01:47:37,000
You can tell by the way they're pitching Maris and Maddell that the pitchers are not trying to let these two hit his break the record.
954
01:47:37,000 --> 01:47:45,000
They hit a home run, they earn it.
955
01:47:45,000 --> 01:47:52,000
Gim will have the 3-2 pitch. Curve, he checks his swing as low inside ball four.
956
01:47:52,000 --> 01:47:58,000
Romano started to walk off the field.
957
01:47:58,000 --> 01:48:11,000
That'll bring up Mickey Maddell, who tripled and scored in the second inning walk, also in the second inning as he came to bat twice in one inning.
958
01:48:11,000 --> 01:48:19,000
Mickey batting 3-26. Maris at first, Richardson at second.
959
01:48:19,000 --> 01:48:30,000
Now up with Maris' 83rd walk of the year.
960
01:48:30,000 --> 01:48:50,000
Here's a curve overstrike call. Maddell has 117 base on balls.
961
01:48:50,000 --> 01:49:02,000
On deck, Johnny Blanchard. Pitch to Mickey, a ground ball at second. Temple up with it. Goes to Vick's power for the outs.
962
01:49:02,000 --> 01:49:13,000
So for the Yankees in the bottom of the fourth, no runs on one hit. No Indian errors, two men left. At the end of fourth full innings, it's Cleveland sixth and the Yankees sixth.
963
01:49:13,000 --> 01:49:31,000
And right now I'd like to mention.
964
01:49:31,000 --> 01:49:36,000
Again on the scoreboard, it's the Red Sox seven, Detroit two at the end of four and a half.
965
01:49:36,000 --> 01:49:45,000
Bruton and Yastremski of home it. Baltimore three, Washington nothing at the end of five. Brant and Brooks Robinson of home it. Chicago at L.A.
966
01:49:45,000 --> 01:49:52,000
And Minnesota, Kansas City have not started. In the National League, it's the Phillies one, the Cubs nothing at the end of three and a half.
967
01:49:52,000 --> 01:50:17,000
Callison home it. Pittsburgh three, Milwaukee nothing at the end of two and a half. Cincinnati one, Cardinals nothing at the end of four and a half. And Los Angeles at San Francisco not on the way.
968
01:50:17,000 --> 01:50:33,000
For the Indians, Willie Kirkland will lead off Kirkland's single assent at a drive in a run in the first inning and fouled out to the catcher.
969
01:50:33,000 --> 01:50:49,000
Six six ball game.
970
01:50:49,000 --> 01:51:04,000
Ground ball to first base, Garren backhands it, flips underhand to coach covering in time to get Kirkland. For a big fellow that Kirkland can't get down the line.
971
01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:16,000
And that'll bring up Vick Power who double a left field and then hit a three run home to the opposite field in the third inning.
972
01:51:16,000 --> 01:51:20,000
That was only Vick's fifth home of the year.
973
01:51:20,000 --> 01:51:24,000
Giving him a total of sixty one RBI's now.
974
01:51:24,000 --> 01:51:32,000
Setting two sixty seven.
975
01:51:32,000 --> 01:51:39,000
That's blown away ball one.
976
01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:46,000
Well today is Roger Maris' twenty seventh birthday.
977
01:51:46,000 --> 01:51:48,000
Happy birthday Roger.
978
01:51:48,000 --> 01:51:51,000
Pitch to Vick Power foul back of the plate.
979
01:51:51,000 --> 01:51:57,000
One on one.
980
01:51:57,000 --> 01:52:16,000
Man what a career he's got ahead of him. Just twenty seven years old.
981
01:52:16,000 --> 01:52:26,000
One one curve ball hit down the right field line close to the hole and foul deep in the right field corner.
982
01:52:26,000 --> 01:52:46,000
One ball two strikes.
983
01:52:46,000 --> 01:52:54,000
One ball two strikes one out nobody on.
984
01:52:54,000 --> 01:53:00,000
That ball almost hit by it did hit him he goes to first base.
985
01:53:00,000 --> 01:53:03,000
Vick Power now pointing to Jim Coates.
986
01:53:03,000 --> 01:53:08,000
Trying to say that Coates threw at him intentionally.
987
01:53:08,000 --> 01:53:11,000
And Vick Power was just nicked.
988
01:53:11,000 --> 01:53:25,000
With that ball on the hand he's throwing the bat back walking towards the mound and pointing his finger at Coates and playing something as he goes to first base.
989
01:53:25,000 --> 01:53:31,000
And Jimmy Dyches now wants to talk with Frank Umott.
990
01:53:31,000 --> 01:53:37,000
And it was off Jim Coates that Vick Power hit the three run homer.
991
01:53:37,000 --> 01:53:44,000
And Coach Low Bridgdom Dyches now talking to Umott.
992
01:53:44,000 --> 01:53:51,000
You know if it is determined that a pitcher threw intentionally at a hitter.
993
01:53:51,000 --> 01:53:57,000
He can be given a stiff spine and suspended.
994
01:53:57,000 --> 01:54:02,000
And Vick Power is not too happy at first base.
995
01:54:02,000 --> 01:54:04,000
And he has made no bones about it.
996
01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:08,000
Here's Woody Held who lined a center field.
997
01:54:08,000 --> 01:54:13,000
Maddell making a fine running catch and then popped the third.
998
01:54:13,000 --> 01:54:14,000
One away.
999
01:54:14,000 --> 01:54:40,000
Court tied 6-6. Pitch to Held high ball one.
1000
01:54:40,000 --> 01:54:45,000
Vick Throw to first. Power back. And Vick Power says throw to the plate.
1001
01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:49,000
He points into the plate to Jim Coates.
1002
01:54:49,000 --> 01:54:53,000
And Vick Power now arguing with first base umpire Joe Lynch a lot.
1003
01:54:53,000 --> 01:55:06,000
Coach throws over there but Vick had his foot on the bag.
1004
01:55:06,000 --> 01:55:13,000
Well we might have a little activity, a little action in this ball game before it's over.
1005
01:55:13,000 --> 01:55:17,000
Jimmy Pearsaw now standing on the top step to the Indian dugout.
1006
01:55:17,000 --> 01:55:29,000
Looks like he's ready to charge out there.
1007
01:55:29,000 --> 01:55:34,000
Tell you one thing if they have a rhubarb I'm in the right spot up here.
1008
01:55:34,000 --> 01:55:37,000
I've been in a few of them.
1009
01:55:37,000 --> 01:55:39,000
Alright here's the stretch.
1010
01:55:39,000 --> 01:55:46,000
Curve is high. Ball two, two or nothing.
1011
01:55:46,000 --> 01:55:59,000
Pearsaw now yelling out to Coates.
1012
01:55:59,000 --> 01:56:08,000
Somebody threw a rubber ball out in the field. Kogak picked it up throws it to Luke Adling.
1013
01:56:08,000 --> 01:56:15,000
Looks like the folks are out here having a picnic.
1014
01:56:15,000 --> 01:56:18,000
Alright ready for the two nothing pitch.
1015
01:56:18,000 --> 01:56:23,000
Inside ball three, three or nothing.
1016
01:56:23,000 --> 01:56:40,000
Mike Delahose on deck.
1017
01:56:40,000 --> 01:56:48,000
Three nothing delivery. High inside ball four.
1018
01:56:48,000 --> 01:56:55,000
Bell walks, Vick Power walking slowly to second base.
1019
01:56:55,000 --> 01:57:02,000
And Pearsaw is waving a towel at Coates.
1020
01:57:02,000 --> 01:57:11,000
And trying to get Jim's attention. Ralph Houch is going out to the mound now.
1021
01:57:11,000 --> 01:57:22,000
Working with Jim Coates, Bobby Richardson and Nelson Howard there.
1022
01:57:22,000 --> 01:57:29,000
And Ralph's going to leave them in. He's telling Coates to never mind the riding from the opposing team,
1023
01:57:29,000 --> 01:57:32,000
but to concentrate on the hitter.
1024
01:57:32,000 --> 01:57:35,000
One away, runners at first and second.
1025
01:57:35,000 --> 01:57:54,000
Inside six, six and the top of the fifth, Nevada Mike Delahose flying to center and single to center.
1026
01:57:54,000 --> 01:57:58,000
Alright, Power leads off second. Woody held off first. The stretch by Coates.
1027
01:57:58,000 --> 01:58:19,000
Third ball is high and away, ball one. Pearsaw still waving the towel.
1028
01:58:19,000 --> 01:58:22,000
Throw to second base and Power is safe.
1029
01:58:22,000 --> 01:58:31,000
And Power did not slide back in a second and Bobby Richardson argues very briefly with second base dunk by a Bob Stewart.
1030
01:58:31,000 --> 01:58:38,000
Vick Power was almost fixed off second. He did not slide back into the bag.
1031
01:58:38,000 --> 01:58:44,000
And that would have made Coates very happy.
1032
01:58:44,000 --> 01:58:49,000
Vick's taking a big lead down there.
1033
01:58:49,000 --> 01:58:54,000
Here's the one-nothing fit. A ground ball to third. Boy, a step down third.
1034
01:58:54,000 --> 01:59:03,000
Throw to first, double play.
1035
01:59:03,000 --> 01:59:09,000
For the Indians, in the top of the fifth, no runs, no hits, no Yankees. There is one man left.
1036
01:59:09,000 --> 01:59:37,000
At the end of four and a half, it's Cleveland six and the Yankees six.
1037
01:59:37,000 --> 01:59:41,000
A funky Valentine. You'll have one pack of beer.
1038
01:59:41,000 --> 01:59:46,000
Big cans of beer. So crispy, refreshing anytime.
1039
01:59:46,000 --> 01:59:49,000
Valentine, Valentine. So nice.
1040
01:59:49,000 --> 01:59:55,000
Valentine. Just right. It's a crisp, sweet, fleshy Valentine.
1041
01:59:55,000 --> 01:59:59,000
Happy on the hands, holding down like a can.
1042
01:59:59,000 --> 02:00:06,000
Take the Jolly Creek back. Jolly, Jolly Creek back home today.
1043
02:00:06,000 --> 02:00:12,000
Next time, take along a six-pack, a Jolly six-pack of Valentine beer.
1044
02:00:12,000 --> 02:00:15,000
It carries with ease, cools in a breeze.
1045
02:00:15,000 --> 02:00:22,000
And best of all, it gives you six icy cold cans of the crisp, refreshing.
1046
02:00:22,000 --> 02:00:31,000
Take along a six-pack, Jolly, Jolly six-pack of light, cold Valentine beer.
1047
02:00:31,000 --> 02:00:34,000
While Bobby Locke was loosening up, Jimmy Jakes hopped out of the Cleveland dugout
1048
02:00:34,000 --> 02:00:37,000
to talk with Frank Humon once again.
1049
02:00:37,000 --> 02:00:43,000
For the Yankees, Johnny Blanchard leads off. Blanchard was up twice in the second inning.
1050
02:00:43,000 --> 02:00:54,000
Homers with Mantle at third base and then flying to center field.
1051
02:00:54,000 --> 02:01:04,000
Johnny now batting 312 with 20 homers and 47 RBI.
1052
02:01:04,000 --> 02:01:11,000
It takes Blanchard to overstrike one call.
1053
02:01:11,000 --> 02:01:19,000
On deck, Elston Howard.
1054
02:01:19,000 --> 02:01:22,000
Fastball low, one-on-one.
1055
02:01:22,000 --> 02:01:24,000
Half-time score now up in New Haven.
1056
02:01:24,000 --> 02:01:29,000
Baltimore, coast 35, New York Giants 13.
1057
02:01:29,000 --> 02:01:33,000
Johnny United having a great day again.
1058
02:01:33,000 --> 02:01:36,000
Turn, hit deep to right, way back there.
1059
02:01:36,000 --> 02:01:46,000
And oh, by inches, way up in the upper deck again.
1060
02:01:46,000 --> 02:01:52,000
Man, that Blanchard is really tagging that ball.
1061
02:01:52,000 --> 02:01:57,000
He hit that one high and deep.
1062
02:01:57,000 --> 02:02:00,000
That ball couldn't have been fouled by much.
1063
02:02:00,000 --> 02:02:18,000
One ball, two strikes.
1064
02:02:18,000 --> 02:02:41,000
Curve way outside, two and two.
1065
02:02:41,000 --> 02:03:07,000
Two-two pitch outside, ball three, three and two.
1066
02:03:07,000 --> 02:03:11,000
Full count on Johnny Blanchard.
1067
02:03:11,000 --> 02:03:19,000
Bobby Locke completely soaked through his uniform with perspiration.
1068
02:03:19,000 --> 02:03:22,000
Now the payoff pitch to Blanchard.
1069
02:03:22,000 --> 02:03:25,000
A foul coming near the Indian dugout.
1070
02:03:25,000 --> 02:03:27,000
Romano chasing it, but he can't get it.
1071
02:03:27,000 --> 02:03:35,000
Bounces on top of the dugout and then way back in the seat.
1072
02:03:35,000 --> 02:04:04,000
Count holds at three and two.
1073
02:04:04,000 --> 02:04:07,000
All right, Locke ready again for the three-two pitch.
1074
02:04:07,000 --> 02:04:09,000
Swing and a miss, strike three.
1075
02:04:09,000 --> 02:04:11,000
And Johnny went after a bad pitch.
1076
02:04:11,000 --> 02:04:16,000
He knew it, tried to hold the bat back, but couldn't do it.
1077
02:04:16,000 --> 02:04:21,000
Strikeout number three for Locke.
1078
02:04:21,000 --> 02:04:23,000
That'll bring up Elston Howard.
1079
02:04:23,000 --> 02:04:27,000
How it struck out the second inning, bounced the third in the third inning.
1080
02:04:27,000 --> 02:04:49,000
Kelly now batting three-sixty and Locke now wants a foul from the Indian dugout.
1081
02:04:49,000 --> 02:05:01,000
Fans are getting on somebody out there.
1082
02:05:01,000 --> 02:05:05,000
Waving handkerchief.
1083
02:05:05,000 --> 02:05:10,000
One out now, nobody on.
1084
02:05:10,000 --> 02:05:24,000
Howard takes a fastball low, ball one.
1085
02:05:24,000 --> 02:05:44,000
Another fastball outside this time, ball two, two and nothing.
1086
02:05:44,000 --> 02:05:49,000
Cincinnati now leading the Cardinals two-nothing at the end of five.
1087
02:05:49,000 --> 02:05:53,000
And the Red Sox leading Detroit eight-two at the end of five.
1088
02:05:53,000 --> 02:06:05,000
And now San Francisco just getting underway.
1089
02:06:05,000 --> 02:06:24,000
All right, here's a two-nothing pitch, it's a swing and a miss, strike one, two and one.
1090
02:06:24,000 --> 02:06:28,000
On deck, Bill Scarron.
1091
02:06:28,000 --> 02:06:31,000
Fastball hit over the pitcher's head and back at second, held up with it,
1092
02:06:31,000 --> 02:06:36,000
close to first in time to get Howard, nice play by Woody Held.
1093
02:06:36,000 --> 02:06:39,000
Had to throw that ball off balance.
1094
02:06:39,000 --> 02:06:43,000
Two away and here's the moose who double a deep right center field in the second inning,
1095
02:06:43,000 --> 02:06:46,000
hit back to the box in the third.
1096
02:06:46,000 --> 02:06:51,000
Scarron has scored one.
1097
02:06:51,000 --> 02:07:06,000
Two out in the six-six ball game, last of the fifth.
1098
02:07:06,000 --> 02:07:24,000
Not good to the moose, curve that's low, ball one.
1099
02:07:24,000 --> 02:07:29,000
Changeup curve hit, backhanded by the third baseman, a long throw.
1100
02:07:29,000 --> 02:07:32,000
It's time for the out.
1101
02:07:32,000 --> 02:07:36,000
And Mike Delaholz pulled a cleat boyer as he split on his knees and backhanded
1102
02:07:36,000 --> 02:07:42,000
Scarron smash over the bag and threw a strike to first base.
1103
02:07:42,000 --> 02:07:45,000
So the Yankees go down in order in the bottom of the fifth nothing across.
1104
02:07:45,000 --> 02:07:52,000
At the end of five full innings, it's Cleveland sixth and the Yankees sixth.
1105
02:07:52,000 --> 02:07:57,000
And right now, some important news for all bowling fans in the area.
1106
02:07:57,000 --> 02:08:03,000
From September 9th through the 17th, the Long Island Fair will have a new special feature this year.
1107
02:08:03,000 --> 02:08:10,000
Ballantine along with AMF and the Long Island Daily Press will sponsor the Long Island Pro-Am Bowler Fair.
1108
02:08:10,000 --> 02:08:15,000
Here are the nation's top professional bowlers from the famous Ballantine bowling classics.
1109
02:08:15,000 --> 02:08:20,000
Fellows like Wrongfoot, Lou Campi, Lindy Farragalli and other well-known pro bowlers
1110
02:08:20,000 --> 02:08:24,000
will bowl against 100 amateurs picked at random.
1111
02:08:24,000 --> 02:08:28,000
Now the amateurs will get 100 percent handicap from the pros.
1112
02:08:28,000 --> 02:08:32,000
These fellows can really bowl and it's a great chance to study their technique.
1113
02:08:32,000 --> 02:08:35,000
On top of that, it's a lot of fun.
1114
02:08:35,000 --> 02:08:41,000
So be sure to attend the Long Island Fair at the Roosevelt Raceway and Exhibition Center in Westbury, Long Island.
1115
02:08:41,000 --> 02:08:46,000
Don't miss the Ballantine bowling classic bowlers in action.
1116
02:08:46,000 --> 02:08:59,000
Right now, let's pause for station identification.
1117
02:08:59,000 --> 02:09:05,000
At 1460 on the radio dial, you're in tune with Quality Modern, WOKO and Albany New York.
1118
02:09:05,000 --> 02:09:11,000
Good sound broadcasting for 1961. WOKO time, five minutes before 4 p.m.
1119
02:09:11,000 --> 02:09:16,000
Red Sox, eight, Detroit, two at the end of five, Baltimore, three, Washington, nothing at the end of seven,
1120
02:09:16,000 --> 02:09:22,000
Chicago at L.A. hasn't started, Minnesota, Kansas City a doubleheader, nothing, nothing at the end of one.
1121
02:09:22,000 --> 02:09:25,000
The National League, Phillies won, Cubs won at the end of four and a half.
1122
02:09:25,000 --> 02:09:31,000
Pittsburgh, three, Milwaukee, one at the end of four, Cincinnati, two, the Cardinals, nothing at the end of five.
1123
02:09:31,000 --> 02:09:35,000
L.A. and San Francisco just getting underway.
1124
02:09:35,000 --> 02:09:53,000
Bobby Locke swings and misses a curve ball, strike one.
1125
02:09:53,000 --> 02:09:56,000
Locke's been up one, bounce to the shortstop.
1126
02:09:56,000 --> 02:10:05,000
Fastball is low, one, one, a lot.
1127
02:10:05,000 --> 02:10:16,000
On deck, Johnny Temple.
1128
02:10:16,000 --> 02:10:40,000
One, one curve, low outside, ball two, two, one.
1129
02:10:40,000 --> 02:10:42,000
Here's the two, one delivery.
1130
02:10:42,000 --> 02:10:46,000
Now look at the bat went into the seat.
1131
02:10:46,000 --> 02:10:56,000
I don't know whether it hit anybody, but that bat went back at least seven or eight rows into the box seat in back of the Cleveland dugout.
1132
02:10:56,000 --> 02:10:58,000
And it did not hit the seat.
1133
02:10:58,000 --> 02:10:59,000
We could not hear any noise.
1134
02:10:59,000 --> 02:11:02,000
It hit somebody.
1135
02:11:02,000 --> 02:11:05,000
And I just hope it didn't hit them hard.
1136
02:11:05,000 --> 02:11:14,000
Very slippery up there at the plate today and the bat slipped out of Locke's hand.
1137
02:11:14,000 --> 02:11:16,000
The policemen are there.
1138
02:11:16,000 --> 02:11:22,000
It doesn't look like anyone was hurt.
1139
02:11:22,000 --> 02:11:28,000
But I tell you, I've seen some bats thrown, but that one's a record.
1140
02:11:28,000 --> 02:11:33,000
That bat went about the distance of home plate to second base.
1141
02:11:33,000 --> 02:11:36,000
And they get the bat back.
1142
02:11:36,000 --> 02:11:39,000
But I believe they should give them another bat.
1143
02:11:39,000 --> 02:11:42,000
That's like a foul ball being hit into the stand.
1144
02:11:42,000 --> 02:11:47,000
They're entitled as souvenir, more so if you're hit by a bat than a baseball.
1145
02:11:47,000 --> 02:11:54,000
I think they're looking for a bat that nobody uses too much and will give it to the fans.
1146
02:11:54,000 --> 02:11:56,000
And that's what they're going to do.
1147
02:11:56,000 --> 02:11:59,000
And they get a brand new bat.
1148
02:11:59,000 --> 02:12:06,000
And they get applause too.
1149
02:12:06,000 --> 02:12:07,000
And a little youngster there.
1150
02:12:07,000 --> 02:12:10,000
He may be bruised a little, but he's very happy.
1151
02:12:10,000 --> 02:12:14,000
Nothing serious.
1152
02:12:14,000 --> 02:12:19,000
Boy, everything's happening here today.
1153
02:12:19,000 --> 02:12:25,000
Do two count on Bobby Locke.
1154
02:12:25,000 --> 02:12:31,000
Curve fouled off the screen.
1155
02:12:31,000 --> 02:12:34,000
And that ball struck underneath the screen.
1156
02:12:34,000 --> 02:12:43,000
We're not surprised at anything that happens from here on in.
1157
02:12:43,000 --> 02:12:46,000
Still two and two with nobody out, nobody on.
1158
02:12:46,000 --> 02:12:52,000
And the top of the sixth, Gorth dies, takes six.
1159
02:12:52,000 --> 02:12:54,000
Again, Coach, two-two delivery.
1160
02:12:54,000 --> 02:12:59,000
It hit his bat, goes fair down the first baseline scourer, and picks it up and pegs Locke for the outs.
1161
02:12:59,000 --> 02:13:04,000
Locke was trying to get out of the way of the inside fair ball.
1162
02:13:04,000 --> 02:13:07,000
And the ball hit his bat, went right to the moose.
1163
02:13:07,000 --> 02:13:09,000
That'll bring up Johnny Tempo.
1164
02:13:09,000 --> 02:13:11,000
Doubled in the first inning and scored.
1165
02:13:11,000 --> 02:13:38,000
Locke out in the second, walked in the fourth.
1166
02:13:38,000 --> 02:13:46,000
Locke is giving the youngster who was hit with the bat a hand, and he's waving the bat up in the air.
1167
02:13:46,000 --> 02:13:48,000
All right, here's the pitch to Tempo.
1168
02:13:48,000 --> 02:13:51,000
A foul back out of play in the upper deck.
1169
02:13:51,000 --> 02:14:01,000
Strike one.
1170
02:14:01,000 --> 02:14:05,000
It must be a frightening feeling to see a back come sailing toward you.
1171
02:14:05,000 --> 02:14:11,000
You can't catch it like a baseball.
1172
02:14:11,000 --> 02:14:24,000
One strike curve will foul back in the lower deck.
1173
02:14:24,000 --> 02:14:36,000
Nothing in two.
1174
02:14:36,000 --> 02:14:47,000
Two strikes there, tie and tight ball one.
1175
02:14:47,000 --> 02:14:50,000
On deck, Jimmy Pearsaw.
1176
02:14:50,000 --> 02:14:55,000
And if Coates should throw a little close to Pearsaw, we'll see some fireworks.
1177
02:14:55,000 --> 02:15:00,000
But he and Coates have tangled before.
1178
02:15:00,000 --> 02:15:03,000
One ball, two strike curve is hit to right field.
1179
02:15:03,000 --> 02:15:09,000
Roger Maris moves back a few steps under it and takes it.
1180
02:15:09,000 --> 02:15:11,000
That's two away.
1181
02:15:11,000 --> 02:15:17,000
And it'll bring up Pearsaw, bounce the short, doubled and scored, and then hit into a double play.
1182
02:15:17,000 --> 02:15:38,000
Pearsaw was digging a hole in the batter's box while Umont was trying to clean home plate.
1183
02:15:38,000 --> 02:15:40,000
All right, here's the windup.
1184
02:15:40,000 --> 02:15:42,000
Pitch to Pearsaw, high inside ball one.
1185
02:15:42,000 --> 02:15:46,000
And Jimmy gives Pearsaw the look and starts talking to him.
1186
02:15:46,000 --> 02:15:48,000
It was really not that close.
1187
02:15:48,000 --> 02:15:55,000
Pearsaw seems to be closer to the plate than his normal stance.
1188
02:15:55,000 --> 02:16:05,000
He's swinging the bat back and forth and talking to Coates at the same time.
1189
02:16:05,000 --> 02:16:12,000
One nothing pitch, curve over, strike one, one on one.
1190
02:16:12,000 --> 02:16:25,000
On deck, Tito Francona.
1191
02:16:25,000 --> 02:16:54,000
Here's the one, one pitch, another curve, foul back off the screen, one ball, two strikes.
1192
02:16:54,000 --> 02:16:59,000
Here's the windup.
1193
02:16:59,000 --> 02:17:10,000
Curve in the dirt, two and two, two out, nobody on.
1194
02:17:10,000 --> 02:17:16,000
All players from both benches are picking their opponents in case of a free-for-all.
1195
02:17:16,000 --> 02:17:20,000
They do that jokingly.
1196
02:17:20,000 --> 02:17:28,000
And as for Umont, he's looking over and the Yankee dugout, here's the pitch, it's foul back in the upper deck.
1197
02:17:28,000 --> 02:17:36,000
Out holds it two and two.
1198
02:17:36,000 --> 02:17:39,000
Pretty good idea though, if you think there's going to be a rhubarb,
1199
02:17:39,000 --> 02:17:51,000
pick out somebody you know is kind of friendly.
1200
02:17:51,000 --> 02:17:56,000
Trouble is in a fight too many of the opponents would pick me.
1201
02:17:56,000 --> 02:18:05,000
Good thing I could run.
1202
02:18:05,000 --> 02:18:22,000
All right, still two and two on Pierce Hall.
1203
02:18:22,000 --> 02:18:27,000
Coates is two, two pitch, wing and a miss, strike three.
1204
02:18:27,000 --> 02:18:31,000
He struck them out.
1205
02:18:31,000 --> 02:18:35,000
And the Indians get down in order in the top of the sixth inning, nothing across.
1206
02:18:35,000 --> 02:18:45,000
At the end of five and a half it's Cleveland sixth and the Yankees sixth.
1207
02:18:45,000 --> 02:18:51,000
To be crisp a beer must be icily light.
1208
02:18:51,000 --> 02:19:01,000
With true lager flavor, crisp icily right.
1209
02:19:01,000 --> 02:19:08,000
Lively golden, crispily clear, the crisp refresher.
1210
02:19:08,000 --> 02:19:12,000
Valentine, valentine beer.
1211
02:19:12,000 --> 02:19:15,000
Pleasure is the purpose of the crisp refresher.
1212
02:19:15,000 --> 02:19:20,000
Your first swallow and everyone to follow is light and crisp and golden.
1213
02:19:20,000 --> 02:19:23,000
It's your pleasure for today's valentine.
1214
02:19:23,000 --> 02:19:31,000
So clap your hands, clap your feet, snap your fingers.
1215
02:19:31,000 --> 02:19:41,000
And ask the man for valentine, the crisp refresher, valentine, valentine beer.
1216
02:19:41,000 --> 02:19:53,000
Since 1840, America's finest.
1217
02:19:53,000 --> 02:19:58,000
For the Yankees, Fleet Boyer will lead off to be followed by Jim Coates.
1218
02:19:58,000 --> 02:20:03,000
Maybe followed by a little fireworks.
1219
02:20:03,000 --> 02:20:13,000
Boyer popped the first base and struck out.
1220
02:20:13,000 --> 02:20:20,000
Score field tie 6-6.
1221
02:20:20,000 --> 02:20:21,000
Lock into the windup.
1222
02:20:21,000 --> 02:20:39,000
It's the Boyer, a foul just to our left out of play.
1223
02:20:39,000 --> 02:20:57,000
Lock comes back with a curve that's fouled in back of the play picked up by Romano, nothing in two.
1224
02:20:57,000 --> 02:21:13,000
Rick Powell is still talking with first base umpire Joe Lincolotta.
1225
02:21:13,000 --> 02:21:34,000
Now the one ball two strike curve ball is low inside, two and two.
1226
02:21:34,000 --> 02:21:57,000
Two-two pitch, foul on the upper deck down the left field line, kick down the lower deck.
1227
02:21:57,000 --> 02:22:15,000
Two and two on Boyer.
1228
02:22:15,000 --> 02:22:17,000
Boyer's Barbie lock uniform is really soaked.
1229
02:22:17,000 --> 02:22:20,000
It must be heavy out there.
1230
02:22:20,000 --> 02:22:38,000
Now he wants a new baseball.
1231
02:22:38,000 --> 02:22:43,000
Two-two pitch, foul back in the upper deck out of play.
1232
02:22:43,000 --> 02:23:00,000
On a day like this a pitcher can lose easily ten pounds and as much as fifteen or seventeen.
1233
02:23:00,000 --> 02:23:03,000
Pitch is a fly ball at short left field.
1234
02:23:03,000 --> 02:23:13,000
Fancona coming in, Held back, Held going back. He's got it, a nice running play by Woody Held with his back to the plate and over the shoulder grab.
1235
02:23:13,000 --> 02:23:16,000
Fancona could not have caught up to the ball.
1236
02:23:16,000 --> 02:23:21,000
Fine play by Woody Held.
1237
02:23:21,000 --> 02:23:39,000
And here's Jim Coates coming up to the plate.
1238
02:23:39,000 --> 02:23:48,000
Coates was called out on strikes in the fourth inning.
1239
02:23:48,000 --> 02:23:59,000
One out, nobody on and now Locke wants to talk with Romano.
1240
02:23:59,000 --> 02:24:11,000
Coates talks with Frank Humott while they're huddling out on the mound.
1241
02:24:11,000 --> 02:24:18,000
Now it's set to go.
1242
02:24:18,000 --> 02:24:20,000
Here's the wind up.
1243
02:24:20,000 --> 02:24:23,000
Fastball right down the middle, strike call.
1244
02:24:23,000 --> 02:24:28,000
Coates leaned away from the pitch kind of expecting an inside pitch.
1245
02:24:28,000 --> 02:24:35,000
But he didn't get it.
1246
02:24:35,000 --> 02:24:41,000
There's one almost hit him and he jumps out of the way and it rolls back to the screen.
1247
02:24:41,000 --> 02:24:50,000
One on one.
1248
02:24:50,000 --> 02:25:01,000
And Frank Humott looking at the ball talking with Romano and warning Romano to warn his pitcher.
1249
02:25:01,000 --> 02:25:08,000
Not to come too close to Mr. Coates.
1250
02:25:08,000 --> 02:25:15,000
Let's Locke him so hard.
1251
02:25:15,000 --> 02:25:24,000
Bobby takes out a handkerchief, mops his hands in his brow.
1252
02:25:24,000 --> 02:25:31,000
Of course a pitcher can always claim that the ball slips out of his fingers on a hot day like this.
1253
02:25:31,000 --> 02:25:34,000
All right here's the one-one pitch.
1254
02:25:34,000 --> 02:25:52,000
Little bit low, ball two, two and one.
1255
02:25:52,000 --> 02:25:55,000
Two-two pitch right down the middle, strike two.
1256
02:25:55,000 --> 02:25:59,000
And they're merely making a bucket hitter out of Coates this time at that.
1257
02:25:59,000 --> 02:26:03,000
He's stepping right toward third base on every pitch.
1258
02:26:03,000 --> 02:26:14,000
Can't say as I blame him.
1259
02:26:14,000 --> 02:26:15,000
Two-two pitch.
1260
02:26:15,000 --> 02:26:21,000
He swings and misses strike three at a low curve ball.
1261
02:26:21,000 --> 02:26:23,000
Strike out for Locke, it's two out.
1262
02:26:23,000 --> 02:26:25,000
Here's Richardson who is two for two.
1263
02:26:25,000 --> 02:26:32,000
He walks singled and doubled.
1264
02:26:32,000 --> 02:26:52,000
Bobby now batting 273, 6'6 the score here in the bottom of the sixth.
1265
02:26:52,000 --> 02:26:58,000
Pitch to Richardson a foul at the plate, bounced on the ground, bounced up and hit Richardson.
1266
02:26:58,000 --> 02:27:04,000
Strike.
1267
02:27:04,000 --> 02:27:06,000
Curve is popped into short left field.
1268
02:27:06,000 --> 02:27:10,000
Frank Conner makes the catch and he almost lost that ball.
1269
02:27:10,000 --> 02:27:14,000
You could see the sun glistening on his glasses as he went after it.
1270
02:27:14,000 --> 02:27:18,000
He flinched a little at the end but he caught it.
1271
02:27:18,000 --> 02:27:21,000
So the Yankees get down in order in the bottom of the sixth.
1272
02:27:21,000 --> 02:27:24,000
Nothing across and at the end of sixth full inning.
1273
02:27:24,000 --> 02:27:32,000
It's Cleveland six runs, ten hits, no errors, the Yankees six runs, eight hits and no errors.
1274
02:27:32,000 --> 02:27:42,000
As we take a look at the scoreboard, in the American League at the end of sixth inning, it's Boston eight and Detroit three.
1275
02:27:42,000 --> 02:27:47,000
Coplitz against Connelly, Bruton, Holman for Detroit, Yastrumsky with one on for the Red Sox.
1276
02:27:47,000 --> 02:27:55,000
Baltimore three, Washington nothing at the end of seven and a half, Klipstein replaced McLean, Estrada for Baltimore, Grant and Brooks Robinson, Holman for Baltimore.
1277
02:27:55,000 --> 02:27:59,000
Chicago at L.A. hasn't started. Minnesota, Kansas City in the first of two.
1278
02:27:59,000 --> 02:28:03,000
The A's won the twins nothing at the end of two, Kralik against Bath.
1279
02:28:03,000 --> 02:28:09,000
In the National League, Phillies won, Cubs won at the end of four and a half, Foresy against Cardwell, Talieson, Holman.
1280
02:28:09,000 --> 02:28:16,000
Pittsburgh three, Milwaukee won at the end of five, Sturtevant against Fonz, Fonz going for number three oh seven.
1281
02:28:16,000 --> 02:28:23,000
Cincinnati five and the Cardinals two at the end of sixth, the Dekke against Turkey, Post, Holman in the sixth with two on.
1282
02:28:23,000 --> 02:28:29,000
As the Cardinals have tied the score in the top of the sixth with two runs, Post came back with a three run home.
1283
02:28:29,000 --> 02:28:33,000
The Los Angeles at San Francisco, Williams against Lowe.
1284
02:28:33,000 --> 02:28:39,000
Well, we're all set to go here in the top of the seventh of this tie ball game and ready to go.
1285
02:28:39,000 --> 02:28:47,000
We'll carry the rest of the way, Mel Allen.
1286
02:28:47,000 --> 02:28:49,000
Hello there everybody.
1287
02:28:49,000 --> 02:28:51,000
We're ready now for the seventh inning.
1288
02:28:51,000 --> 02:28:58,000
Tito Francona leading off for the Indians, Johnny Romano on deck and Willie Kirkland to follow.
1289
02:28:58,000 --> 02:29:04,000
Foreside six-six. Jim Coates delivers. The pitch is in there for a call strike.
1290
02:29:04,000 --> 02:29:11,000
Little off his fastball. Francona applied to right, single to right and double to left.
1291
02:29:11,000 --> 02:29:15,000
The numbers three, four and five hitters in the order first up.
1292
02:29:15,000 --> 02:29:21,000
Coates in relief for Ford, comes in now with another half-speed pitch which is outside.
1293
02:29:21,000 --> 02:29:27,000
Ball on, one and one.
1294
02:29:27,000 --> 02:29:33,000
One ball, one strike.
1295
02:29:33,000 --> 02:29:35,000
Jim into the windup. Around comes the right arm.
1296
02:29:35,000 --> 02:29:41,000
The pitch fastball swung on, lifted up into the air, stumbled in the Tiger Series,
1297
02:29:41,000 --> 02:29:47,000
but still made a spectacular catch.
1298
02:29:47,000 --> 02:29:49,000
Scratched his arm.
1299
02:29:49,000 --> 02:29:55,000
Place where Bob Serb hurt himself earlier in the year.
1300
02:29:55,000 --> 02:30:02,000
A little dip out there and you're running across a certain level of ground that foot just doesn't hit right.
1301
02:30:02,000 --> 02:30:05,000
Johnny Romano swings at the first pitch, bounces at the short,
1302
02:30:05,000 --> 02:30:11,000
Kubek up with his throws on to first in time.
1303
02:30:11,000 --> 02:30:14,000
Two away.
1304
02:30:14,000 --> 02:30:24,000
Now Willie Kirkland comes up, single to center, foul of a catcher and grounded to first.
1305
02:30:24,000 --> 02:30:27,000
Six power coming out on deck.
1306
02:30:27,000 --> 02:30:39,000
Indian six to Yankee, six at the seventh inning.
1307
02:30:39,000 --> 02:30:42,000
Jim Coates into the windup. In comes the pitch to the left-hand batter.
1308
02:30:42,000 --> 02:30:52,000
It's over. Strike one, nothing and one.
1309
02:30:52,000 --> 02:30:56,000
Can't make a mistake with Willie.
1310
02:30:56,000 --> 02:31:05,000
Hand the pitch over the outside corner. Strike two.
1311
02:31:05,000 --> 02:31:10,000
Open stance. Good, solid, full hitter with power.
1312
02:31:10,000 --> 02:31:12,000
Six all, seventh inning.
1313
02:31:12,000 --> 02:31:19,000
Now the two-strike pitch fastball misses, low and away, one and two.
1314
02:31:19,000 --> 02:31:34,000
One ball, two strikes.
1315
02:31:34,000 --> 02:31:38,000
Jim into the windup and the pitch is in there.
1316
02:31:38,000 --> 02:31:40,000
Foul, strike three.
1317
02:31:40,000 --> 02:31:42,000
Caught him looking.
1318
02:31:42,000 --> 02:31:47,000
Dives retired, no runs, no hits, no errors, no one left on.
1319
02:31:47,000 --> 02:31:53,000
And at the end of six and a half innings, Indian six Yankee, six.
1320
02:31:53,000 --> 02:31:59,000
On a warm summer day, there are a few things more pleasant than a cold golden glass of beer,
1321
02:31:59,000 --> 02:32:02,000
especially when that beer is Valentine.
1322
02:32:02,000 --> 02:32:05,000
Every sip you take is pure pleasure.
1323
02:32:05,000 --> 02:32:10,000
You see, pleasure is the purpose of the crisp of pressure,
1324
02:32:10,000 --> 02:32:15,000
and that's why over five million glasses of Valentine beer are enjoyed every day.
1325
02:32:15,000 --> 02:32:19,000
Discover the crisp of pressure yourself.
1326
02:32:19,000 --> 02:32:24,000
Your very first swallow and each one to follow proves that a beer can be light
1327
02:32:24,000 --> 02:32:29,000
and still give you all the lager beer flavor you want.
1328
02:32:29,000 --> 02:32:34,000
This sunny mellow flavor is what makes Valentine beer the crisp of pressure.
1329
02:32:34,000 --> 02:32:39,000
So friends, if you drink beer for taste and refreshment and pleasure,
1330
02:32:39,000 --> 02:32:41,000
then Valentine is the beer for you.
1331
02:32:41,000 --> 02:32:48,000
Try it. See for yourself why Valentine is the most popular beer from Maine to Florida.
1332
02:32:48,000 --> 02:32:56,000
Pure pleasure, pure of the crisp of pressure, real soon.
1333
02:32:56,000 --> 02:33:01,000
In the last half of the seventh inning, Tony Kubeck will be leading off,
1334
02:33:01,000 --> 02:33:06,000
Roger Maris on deck, and Mickey Mantle to follow.
1335
02:33:06,000 --> 02:33:11,000
For any late tuners in, the Indians scored two in the first off-fords.
1336
02:33:11,000 --> 02:33:16,000
After the Yankees have knocked out Barry Lattmann with a six-run attack in the second,
1337
02:33:16,000 --> 02:33:26,000
including a home run by Johnny Blanchard following Mantle's lead off-triple,
1338
02:33:26,000 --> 02:33:48,000
the Indians knocked out Ford in the third, and Vic Power hit a three-run homer off-coach to tie the score.
1339
02:33:48,000 --> 02:33:55,000
Kubeck rounded the second into a double play, double to right and flying to left.
1340
02:33:55,000 --> 02:34:01,000
Bobby Locke, who has been in there since the second inning with two outs and a leap of Lattmann,
1341
02:34:01,000 --> 02:34:20,000
into the windup, the pitch is high and away, ball one.
1342
02:34:20,000 --> 02:34:26,000
The right hander to the windup, and the next pitch flung onto high fly ball into left center.
1343
02:34:26,000 --> 02:34:33,000
Jimmy Pearsall gets under it and has one away.
1344
02:34:33,000 --> 02:34:52,000
Now Roger Maris, fly to right, swing to the left, and walk.
1345
02:34:52,000 --> 02:34:57,000
The last time up Maris just missed a homer.
1346
02:34:57,000 --> 02:35:10,000
Bobby Locke won the third deck foul a little bit. Pitch is way high, ball one.
1347
02:35:10,000 --> 02:35:19,000
One ball, no strikes.
1348
02:35:19,000 --> 02:35:27,000
Bobby Locke to the windup, the pitch, and Maris swings and lifts a high, high foul.
1349
02:35:27,000 --> 02:35:31,000
Vic Power comes in for, and he has it.
1350
02:35:31,000 --> 02:35:35,000
Two downs.
1351
02:35:35,000 --> 02:35:41,000
Now coming up is Mickey Mantle, who tripled in the second inning,
1352
02:35:41,000 --> 02:35:49,000
and walked all in the same inning, and then grounded the second and the fourth, batting 325.
1353
02:35:49,000 --> 02:35:57,000
Indian six Yankees, six step and pinning.
1354
02:35:57,000 --> 02:36:05,000
Mantle wants Frank Humont to flick the ball over.
1355
02:36:05,000 --> 02:36:19,000
He saves it in the game.
1356
02:36:19,000 --> 02:36:25,000
Locke to the windup, and the pitch is high and away, ball one.
1357
02:36:25,000 --> 02:36:32,000
One ball, no strikes.
1358
02:36:32,000 --> 02:36:36,000
Locke ready, two downs, seven pinning, six, six.
1359
02:36:36,000 --> 02:37:00,000
End of the windup, and the pitch is high outside, ball two, two and nothing.
1360
02:37:00,000 --> 02:37:02,000
No strikes.
1361
02:37:02,000 --> 02:37:10,000
Now the pitch, change up is high, ball three, three and nothing.
1362
02:37:10,000 --> 02:37:15,000
Mantle looks at Krasetti, he's got a green light.
1363
02:37:15,000 --> 02:37:24,000
Guaranteed he's not going to get one down the middle anyway.
1364
02:37:24,000 --> 02:37:36,000
Two balls, no strikes, two outs, six, six, seven pinning.
1365
02:37:36,000 --> 02:37:42,000
Locke ready, end of the windup, and the three nothing pitch is high for ball four.
1366
02:37:42,000 --> 02:37:50,000
Second time, Mantle's walk.
1367
02:37:50,000 --> 02:37:58,000
The key gets to walk, his second of the game and 118 in the season.
1368
02:37:58,000 --> 02:38:02,000
Now Johnny Blanchard, hit a home run in the second inning,
1369
02:38:02,000 --> 02:38:05,000
flying to center all in the same inning.
1370
02:38:05,000 --> 02:38:12,000
Struck out in the fifth after he too almost had a second home run.
1371
02:38:12,000 --> 02:38:14,000
Barely fouled in the upper deck.
1372
02:38:14,000 --> 02:38:21,000
Six, six, seven pinning.
1373
02:38:21,000 --> 02:38:25,000
Bobby Locke to the stretch.
1374
02:38:25,000 --> 02:38:30,000
And time has been called.
1375
02:38:30,000 --> 02:38:36,000
And somebody takes a swing at Pierce Hall, two men take a swing at Pierce Hall and he goes after them.
1376
02:38:36,000 --> 02:38:41,000
And the police are after them, and the Indian ball crowd is after them.
1377
02:38:41,000 --> 02:38:46,000
Two kids went out and took a swing at Pierce Hall and the whole Indian ball club,
1378
02:38:46,000 --> 02:38:50,000
and the police are out there and they got them.
1379
02:38:50,000 --> 02:38:54,000
Jimmy started up around them and they got them.
1380
02:38:54,000 --> 02:38:58,000
Two ran out onto the field and suddenly started swinging.
1381
02:38:58,000 --> 02:39:04,000
Jimmy dropped one, one after the other, and the Indian ball club got out there in a hurry.
1382
02:39:04,000 --> 02:39:09,000
And a dozen or more police got right out there.
1383
02:39:09,000 --> 02:39:14,000
And Mickey Mantle is one that's out there.
1384
02:39:14,000 --> 02:39:17,000
Mickey went out too.
1385
02:39:17,000 --> 02:39:26,000
And now the cops have both of the offenders and a hustle out of the ballpark.
1386
02:39:26,000 --> 02:39:49,000
And Mantle was out there long at the city.
1387
02:39:49,000 --> 02:40:01,000
Now I think some one of the two, have we got any field glasses here?
1388
02:40:01,000 --> 02:40:10,000
I think Pierce Hall may have suffered some abrasion.
1389
02:40:10,000 --> 02:40:18,000
Wally Bachman is going out, but Jimmy is surrounded.
1390
02:40:18,000 --> 02:40:22,000
What an offensive thing.
1391
02:40:22,000 --> 02:40:25,000
And Jimmy gets a hand.
1392
02:40:25,000 --> 02:40:37,000
God bless him.
1393
02:40:37,000 --> 02:40:43,000
I'll tell you this, I'd hate to be those two fellows.
1394
02:40:43,000 --> 02:40:48,000
It must have been three quarters, the Indian ball club finally got down top of them,
1395
02:40:48,000 --> 02:40:54,000
and Mantle and Presetti got out there.
1396
02:40:54,000 --> 02:40:59,000
They'll fight one another on the field of play, but don't let anybody like that come out,
1397
02:40:59,000 --> 02:41:02,000
because then they gang up on them.
1398
02:41:02,000 --> 02:41:26,000
Jimmy is staying in.
1399
02:41:26,000 --> 02:41:34,000
Jimmy just lost his father, you know, this past week.
1400
02:41:34,000 --> 02:41:44,000
You knew that this had to happen some day, something like that.
1401
02:41:44,000 --> 02:41:50,000
Not only just to Jimmy, but to anybody with people running on the field.
1402
02:41:50,000 --> 02:42:08,000
As stiff as is a pine, and the jail term, it will probably be made even stiffer.
1403
02:42:08,000 --> 02:42:16,000
Just all of a sudden, I would say they must have, they look to me like about,
1404
02:42:16,000 --> 02:42:26,000
over 100 yards away, I'd say somewhere around 21 to 25 years old.
1405
02:42:26,000 --> 02:42:30,000
And Jimmy took them both on, but he didn't have too long.
1406
02:42:30,000 --> 02:42:34,000
The Indian bullpen emptied, they came out of the dugout,
1407
02:42:34,000 --> 02:42:49,000
and Mantle was on first base, raced out, and Presetti came over from third base.
1408
02:42:49,000 --> 02:43:00,000
Well, it's been a wild day, but you just can't win unless the players play their game.
1409
02:43:00,000 --> 02:43:06,000
There's Johnny Blanchard up, two down, Mantle on first, and the pitch.
1410
02:43:06,000 --> 02:43:24,000
Plung on, foul back upstairs, strike one, nothing in one.
1411
02:43:24,000 --> 02:43:30,000
And there's still fussing over that incident.
1412
02:43:30,000 --> 02:43:36,000
Why, I don't know. Why it happened.
1413
02:43:36,000 --> 02:43:40,000
No balls, one strike.
1414
02:43:40,000 --> 02:43:53,000
Bobby Lock ready, and the pitch, way outside, almost a wild pitch, one and one.
1415
02:43:53,000 --> 02:44:06,000
One and one count on Blanchard.
1416
02:44:06,000 --> 02:44:09,000
Boy, the stadium police move faster than ever.
1417
02:44:09,000 --> 02:44:12,000
Dominators came out of everywhere.
1418
02:44:12,000 --> 02:44:17,000
But over the first, almost a wild one, thick power jumps up to grab it.
1419
02:44:17,000 --> 02:44:20,000
Mantle was standing on the bag.
1420
02:44:20,000 --> 02:44:23,000
Six all, seven sending with two out.
1421
02:44:23,000 --> 02:44:29,000
Bobby Lock ready, and the pitch, plung on, there's the drive, the deep right center,
1422
02:44:29,000 --> 02:44:34,000
and that ball is going to be caught by Pearsall.
1423
02:44:34,000 --> 02:44:37,000
He took a home run away from Blanchard.
1424
02:44:37,000 --> 02:44:43,000
How about that? He leaped up and took a home run away.
1425
02:44:43,000 --> 02:45:06,000
Listen to hand for Jimmy.
1426
02:45:06,000 --> 02:45:13,000
Jimmy Pearsall went all the way over in front of the Yankee bullpen, leaped high in the air,
1427
02:45:13,000 --> 02:45:16,000
and took a home run away from Johnny Blanchard.
1428
02:45:16,000 --> 02:45:19,000
And the side is retired.
1429
02:45:19,000 --> 02:45:27,000
No runs, no hits, no errors, and one left off at the end of seven innings.
1430
02:45:27,000 --> 02:45:35,000
Cleveland, six runs, ten hits, no errors, the Yankees, six runs, eight hits, and no errors.
1431
02:45:35,000 --> 02:45:47,000
Wow, Jimmy really climaxed the inning after two people had assaulted him.
1432
02:45:47,000 --> 02:45:52,000
He just committed highway robbery, which is legal on a ball field.
1433
02:45:52,000 --> 02:46:00,000
We pause for safe identification.
1434
02:46:00,000 --> 02:46:03,000
Good sound broadcasting for 1961.
1435
02:46:03,000 --> 02:46:08,000
Equality Modern, WOKO, Albany, New York, your Yankee baseball station.
1436
02:46:08,000 --> 02:46:19,000
The time, 29 minutes past 4 p.m.
1437
02:46:19,000 --> 02:46:26,000
The Boston Red Sox lead the Detroit Tigers 8-4 at the end of six and a half innings.
1438
02:46:26,000 --> 02:46:32,000
Baltimore 3, Washington nothing, at the end of eight.
1439
02:46:32,000 --> 02:46:35,000
Kansas City one, Minnesota nothing, at the end of two and a half.
1440
02:46:35,000 --> 02:46:39,000
National League, Chicago six, Philadelphia one, end of six.
1441
02:46:39,000 --> 02:46:43,000
Pittsburgh three, Milwaukee one, end of six.
1442
02:46:43,000 --> 02:46:47,000
Cincinnati five, St. Louis two, at the end of six and a half.
1443
02:46:47,000 --> 02:46:52,000
Los Angeles nothing, San Francisco batting in the first inning.
1444
02:46:52,000 --> 02:46:57,000
Now to the eighth, Sixall and the sixth power.
1445
02:46:57,000 --> 02:47:03,000
The coach for the windup and the pitch is swung on line out into right center for a base hit.
1446
02:47:03,000 --> 02:47:08,000
Marist takes it on a hop and tosses back into Richardson.
1447
02:47:08,000 --> 02:47:12,000
Power double to left, did a free run homer off coach in the third.
1448
02:47:12,000 --> 02:47:15,000
Was hit by a pitch ball in the fifth.
1449
02:47:15,000 --> 02:47:19,000
Opens the eighth with a single to right.
1450
02:47:19,000 --> 02:47:34,000
That brings up what he held with Mike Delahose on deck.
1451
02:47:34,000 --> 02:47:37,000
Jim Coates in relief for Whitey Ford.
1452
02:47:37,000 --> 02:47:39,000
Checks the runner.
1453
02:47:39,000 --> 02:47:53,000
And held, started to bunt and takes it for a strike.
1454
02:47:53,000 --> 02:48:00,000
No ball, one strike.
1455
02:48:00,000 --> 02:48:04,000
Boyer shortened up a third.
1456
02:48:04,000 --> 02:48:15,000
Jim Coates tosses easily over to first.
1457
02:48:15,000 --> 02:48:19,000
Time has been called.
1458
02:48:19,000 --> 02:48:23,000
That's four by held, now he's back in.
1459
02:48:23,000 --> 02:48:26,000
Coates again with a stretch.
1460
02:48:26,000 --> 02:48:34,000
And the pitch, swung on and missed, strike two, a switch.
1461
02:48:34,000 --> 02:48:50,000
No ball, two strikes.
1462
02:48:50,000 --> 02:48:56,000
Coach Reddy, now the pitch and it's outside, ball one, one and two.
1463
02:48:56,000 --> 02:49:05,000
A lead up curve just off the plate.
1464
02:49:05,000 --> 02:49:11,000
One ball, two strikes.
1465
02:49:11,000 --> 02:49:22,000
Power leading away, throw over, he's back.
1466
02:49:22,000 --> 02:49:24,000
Jim Coates into the stretch.
1467
02:49:24,000 --> 02:49:29,000
Here's the pitch, swung on, that's a high pop-up out back of second.
1468
02:49:29,000 --> 02:49:34,000
Richardson backs up, still goes back under it and has it.
1469
02:49:34,000 --> 02:49:37,000
One down.
1470
02:49:37,000 --> 02:49:40,000
And the batter is Mike Delahose.
1471
02:49:40,000 --> 02:49:53,000
He's in the center, single to center, and grounded to third into a double play.
1472
02:49:53,000 --> 02:50:10,000
The bullpen is busy, goes to Yankee bullpen.
1473
02:50:10,000 --> 02:50:24,000
Throw over to first and power is back.
1474
02:50:24,000 --> 02:50:43,000
The pitch is high for a ball, one ball, no strikes.
1475
02:50:43,000 --> 02:50:56,000
And the delivery inside, ball two, two balls, no strikes.
1476
02:50:56,000 --> 02:51:02,000
A 2-0 count.
1477
02:51:02,000 --> 02:51:11,000
Bobby Lock, the next scheduled batter, whether he bats or not may depend on what Delahose does.
1478
02:51:11,000 --> 02:51:32,000
Here's the pitch, swung on and fouled off to the right of the plate, out of play, two and one.
1479
02:51:32,000 --> 02:51:38,000
Two balls, one strike, six-six, eighth inning, one on and one out for the Indians.
1480
02:51:38,000 --> 02:51:42,000
Delahose, the right-hand batter, power moves off first.
1481
02:51:42,000 --> 02:51:49,000
Here's the pitch, swung on, there's a looping pop that will be taken by Maris in short right.
1482
02:51:49,000 --> 02:51:53,000
Power retreats to first.
1483
02:51:53,000 --> 02:51:58,000
Delahose lifts a pop-up in the very short right.
1484
02:51:58,000 --> 02:52:05,000
And now we look toward the Indian bench and Bobby Lock is coming out.
1485
02:52:05,000 --> 02:52:19,000
He has done a fine job in relief for Blanton.
1486
02:52:19,000 --> 02:52:28,000
In fact, Lock has just given up two hits.
1487
02:52:28,000 --> 02:52:37,000
Came on in the second inning with two outs, gave up one hit then and gave up one hit in the fourth, and that's all.
1488
02:52:37,000 --> 02:52:41,000
Grounded to short and first.
1489
02:52:41,000 --> 02:52:51,000
The delivery, swung on and missed, strike one.
1490
02:52:51,000 --> 02:52:54,000
Johnny Temple is on deck.
1491
02:52:54,000 --> 02:52:58,000
Another six-six ball game as we play in the first of the eighth.
1492
02:52:58,000 --> 02:53:02,000
Sixth power on first base.
1493
02:53:02,000 --> 02:53:09,000
Stretched by Jim Coates and the pitch, swung on, bounced over the head of the pitcher, out over second, into center, fourth base hit.
1494
02:53:09,000 --> 02:53:16,000
And that's only Lock's fourth base hit of the season.
1495
02:53:16,000 --> 02:53:22,000
He had three hits this season and he bounces one through the middle.
1496
02:53:22,000 --> 02:53:43,000
And that may be a key base hit with Johnny Temple coming up.
1497
02:53:43,000 --> 02:53:52,000
Here's Johnny Temple, double to right center, take a third strike, walks and fly to right.
1498
02:53:52,000 --> 02:53:55,000
Runners on first and second, two down.
1499
02:53:55,000 --> 02:54:04,000
The pitch to Temple, swung on, hit sharply to short, two back up with it, clips on to Richardson for the fourth out at second, a block.
1500
02:54:04,000 --> 02:54:07,000
The side's retired.
1501
02:54:07,000 --> 02:54:10,000
No runs, two hits, no errors, two men left on.
1502
02:54:10,000 --> 02:54:15,000
Seven and a half innings, Cleveland six, New York six.
1503
02:54:15,000 --> 02:54:43,000
Ooh, to be crisp, a beer must be icily light, ooh, icily light, with true Lager flavor, precisely right, ooh, precisely right, lively golden, crispily clear, the crisp refreshers,
1504
02:54:43,000 --> 02:54:47,000
Valentine, Valentine, beer.
1505
02:54:47,000 --> 02:54:50,000
Pleasure is the purpose of the crisp refresher.
1506
02:54:50,000 --> 02:54:55,000
Your first swallow and everyone to follow is light and crisp and golden.
1507
02:54:55,000 --> 02:54:58,000
So pour pleasure, pour today's Valentine.
1508
02:54:58,000 --> 02:55:16,000
So clap your hands, clap your feet, snap your fingers, and that's the man for Valentine, the crisp refresher, Valentine, Valentine, beer.
1509
02:55:16,000 --> 02:55:35,000
Since 1840, America's finest.
1510
02:55:35,000 --> 02:55:39,000
It's the last half of eighth inning.
1511
02:55:39,000 --> 02:55:51,000
Nelson Howard first up for New York, Bill Scaron on deck, and please, for you to follow.
1512
02:55:51,000 --> 02:56:10,000
Court tied at 6-6, and if anyone just tuned in or just got in the car driving along, no M&M homers. Big power, hit a three-run homer.
1513
02:56:10,000 --> 02:56:14,000
Johnny Blanchard hit a two-run homer.
1514
02:56:14,000 --> 02:56:39,000
John Howard, nothing for three. Bobby Locke's delivery, low outside, ball one. Howard struck out, grounded to third and short, hitting 3.59.
1515
02:56:39,000 --> 02:56:46,000
Chapman and Ford were the starters.
1516
02:56:46,000 --> 02:57:13,000
Locke, the right-hander, into the windup, and the pitch is low again, ball two, 2-0.
1517
02:57:13,000 --> 02:57:30,000
Now the 2-0 pitch, right in there, 2-1.
1518
02:57:30,000 --> 02:57:41,000
Next delivery, swung on, there's a fly ball down the right field line going foul out of play.
1519
02:57:41,000 --> 02:58:05,000
A 2-2 count.
1520
02:58:05,000 --> 02:58:11,000
2-2 pitch, swung on, hits out back through the middle for a base hit.
1521
02:58:11,000 --> 02:58:15,000
Dersall up for the ball, tossing it back in.
1522
02:58:15,000 --> 02:58:21,000
Nelson Howard, single to the center of the opening, penning for New York.
1523
02:58:21,000 --> 02:58:35,000
Yankees second hit since the second inning. They got all their runs and seven of their eight hits in the second inning.
1524
02:58:35,000 --> 02:58:39,000
They got one hit in the fourth and now one in the eighth.
1525
02:58:39,000 --> 02:58:48,000
Bill Scaron, double to right center, hits to the box and grounded to third.
1526
02:58:48,000 --> 02:58:58,000
Bobby Locke into the stretch and the pitch, high and inside, ball one.
1527
02:58:58,000 --> 02:59:04,000
Ellie has this safely in his last eight games.
1528
02:59:04,000 --> 02:59:10,000
6-0, eighth inning.
1529
02:59:10,000 --> 02:59:16,000
Locke throws a lot of stinkers, that's what he'd be going up there to moot.
1530
02:59:16,000 --> 02:59:22,000
He's ready and the pitch is inside, ball two.
1531
02:59:22,000 --> 02:59:28,000
Two balls, no strikes and now out of the back out comes Jimmy Dyches.
1532
02:59:28,000 --> 02:59:32,000
He may figure, we'll see what he figures.
1533
02:59:32,000 --> 02:59:47,000
He may figure Bobby who has pitched brilliantly on this hot day since the third inning with two outs,
1534
02:59:47,000 --> 02:59:53,000
or rather the second inning with two outs, may be tiring but we'll see.
1535
02:59:53,000 --> 03:00:03,000
He just signaled his bullpen a little bit ago to see if whoever was warming up out there was ready.
1536
03:00:03,000 --> 03:00:09,000
Got it signaled back. So he's going to call someone in.
1537
03:00:09,000 --> 03:00:27,000
Bobby Locke turned down a great job in relief.
1538
03:00:27,000 --> 03:00:32,000
Pitching five in a third inning.
1539
03:00:32,000 --> 03:00:37,000
Nobody out in the eighth.
1540
03:00:37,000 --> 03:00:48,000
Three hits.
1541
03:00:48,000 --> 03:00:57,000
Walked three men and struck out four.
1542
03:00:57,000 --> 03:01:12,000
And I believe that's Frank Funk coming in.
1543
03:01:12,000 --> 03:01:21,000
Locke and Jimmy Dyches judgment just simply has begun to tire.
1544
03:01:21,000 --> 03:01:32,000
Will Frank Funk will be coming in.
1545
03:01:32,000 --> 03:01:41,000
And with a two-nothing count on Scowran, in the event he should walk,
1546
03:01:41,000 --> 03:01:49,000
that walk would be charged to the outgoing pitcher Locke.
1547
03:01:49,000 --> 03:02:17,000
Whatever else happens is charged to Funk. A hand now for Bobby Locke.
1548
03:02:17,000 --> 03:02:22,000
Frank Funk will be making his 54th appearance and his third in this series.
1549
03:02:22,000 --> 03:02:51,000
And has a record of 11 and 10. Yesterday was charged with a defeat.
1550
03:02:51,000 --> 03:03:09,000
The Yankees will next be home in the last week of the season for the Orioles and the Red Sox.
1551
03:03:09,000 --> 03:03:16,000
The Red Sox lead the Tigers 8-4 in their seven innings and Baltimore defeated Washington 3-2,
1552
03:03:16,000 --> 03:03:24,000
saving off a center-to-ninth inning rally of two runs.
1553
03:03:24,000 --> 03:03:29,000
All right. We're ready to continue.
1554
03:03:29,000 --> 03:03:40,000
Frank Funk has a good assortment of fast balls, curve balls, change of pace, end of the stretch.
1555
03:03:40,000 --> 03:03:47,000
And a pitch. Swung on a high foul beyond first and the ball is going to be out of play.
1556
03:03:47,000 --> 03:03:55,000
Two and one.
1557
03:03:55,000 --> 03:03:59,000
There was a spot where a batter had his mind made up to be swinging.
1558
03:03:59,000 --> 03:04:06,000
He figured with the count two and nothing, the pitcher is going to have to get the ball in the strike zone.
1559
03:04:06,000 --> 03:04:13,000
Two and one now.
1560
03:04:13,000 --> 03:04:19,000
The right hand earned in the stretch. Howard moves off first.
1561
03:04:19,000 --> 03:04:41,000
Here's the pitch. Swung on and missed. Strike two. Counted him with a fast ball.
1562
03:04:41,000 --> 03:04:49,000
Two balls, two strikes. The right hand are ready. And the pitch. Swung on.
1563
03:04:49,000 --> 03:04:55,000
Little roller hits toward third. Delahoe is up with his place at the first base in time.
1564
03:04:55,000 --> 03:05:00,000
Howard advancing to second.
1565
03:05:00,000 --> 03:05:09,000
A slow roller to third. And Berra had started out of the dugout to hit for Boyer.
1566
03:05:09,000 --> 03:05:15,000
Went right back in. Maybe he went to get another bat.
1567
03:05:15,000 --> 03:05:33,000
It's going to be Hector Lopez.
1568
03:05:33,000 --> 03:05:45,000
I think Ralph Howard quickly figured what could happen anyway if Lopez does nothing.
1569
03:05:45,000 --> 03:05:55,000
If you put Berra up with first base open and walking.
1570
03:05:55,000 --> 03:06:11,000
So rather than just lose a man, sending up Hector Lopez to hit for Boyer.
1571
03:06:11,000 --> 03:06:20,000
Now they have to pitch to Lopez.
1572
03:06:20,000 --> 03:06:30,000
Yankee bullpen is busy and if Lopez doesn't do anything, they may send Yogi up to hit for Coates anyway.
1573
03:06:30,000 --> 03:06:59,000
I think he's still walking and going to do. But here's Lopez up with one away. Six all, eight sending. And the pitch. Swung on and missed. Strike one. Nothing and one.
1574
03:06:59,000 --> 03:07:18,000
Strike bunk all set. And the pitch. Swung on and fouled off to the right of the plate out of play.
1575
03:07:18,000 --> 03:07:30,000
No balls. Two strikes.
1576
03:07:30,000 --> 03:07:39,000
One away in the eighth sending. Six all.
1577
03:07:39,000 --> 03:07:53,000
Howard on second. One out. The right hander to the stretch and we're ready for the two strike pitch. Here it is. Swung on and missed. Strike three.
1578
03:07:53,000 --> 03:08:10,000
So Hector Lopez strikes out. Now Bob Serbs going to come up and bat for Coates.
1579
03:08:10,000 --> 03:08:32,000
Bob Serbs heading 222.
1580
03:08:32,000 --> 03:09:01,000
Johnny Romano out to talk to Frank Funk.
1581
03:09:01,000 --> 03:09:19,000
We're all set. The pitch to serve is inside ball one. Bobby Richardson on deck.
1582
03:09:19,000 --> 03:09:30,000
Elston Howard on second with two down in the eighth sending.
1583
03:09:30,000 --> 03:09:58,000
The Cleveland right hander is set. Checking the runner. And the pitch. Sailing high inside for ball two.
1584
03:09:58,000 --> 03:10:20,000
Two balls, no strikes. Howard moves off second. Here's the pitch and it's right over. Strike one. Two and one.
1585
03:10:20,000 --> 03:10:32,000
Here's the two one pitch to Big Bob. Here it is. Swung on, lined to left field for a face hit. Here comes Howard on third and comes on in to score.
1586
03:10:32,000 --> 03:10:40,000
On a single left by Bob Serbs.
1587
03:10:40,000 --> 03:10:48,000
And Billy Gargile going to run for serve.
1588
03:10:48,000 --> 03:10:58,000
Serves singles home Elston Howard to make it seven to six New York. Serves 34th run batted in.
1589
03:10:58,000 --> 03:11:11,000
And Billy Gardner goes in to run for serve.
1590
03:11:11,000 --> 03:11:24,000
Bobby Richardson steps up, threw a walk. Singles. Doubled and climbed to left.
1591
03:11:24,000 --> 03:11:32,000
Now the pitch. Swung on, popped up in the air behind the plate. Romano comes back toward the screen. It's out of play.
1592
03:11:32,000 --> 03:11:40,000
And you know what? The ball just missed the screen and Romano misjudged it.
1593
03:11:40,000 --> 03:11:58,000
He gave up. He's thinking the ball's going to land on the netting and it just was inches short of it.
1594
03:11:58,000 --> 03:12:10,000
No ball, one strike.
1595
03:12:10,000 --> 03:12:15,000
Frank Funk into the stretch.
1596
03:12:15,000 --> 03:12:24,000
The right hander's pitch is swung on, bounced to short. Held up with it, flips it on to Temple for the force out of Gardner.
1597
03:12:24,000 --> 03:12:31,000
And the side is retired. One run, two hits, no errors, and one left on.
1598
03:12:31,000 --> 03:12:39,000
And Luis Arroyo's coming on to the bullpen. At the end of eight innings, New York seven runs, ten hits, no errors.
1599
03:12:39,000 --> 03:12:52,000
Six left on. Cleveland six runs. Twelve hits, no errors. And seven men left on base.
1600
03:12:52,000 --> 03:12:59,000
Outdoors are in, summertime. It's a time to work up a thirst. And when that happens, it's time for Ballantine.
1601
03:12:59,000 --> 03:13:11,000
Time to take along a six pack of Ballantine beer. You'll refresh with a crisp refresher.
1602
03:13:11,000 --> 03:13:16,000
Arroyo coming on, and while he does, we look at the scoreboard.
1603
03:13:16,000 --> 03:13:23,000
Sniggers got another run in the eighth inning. And at the end of seven and a half, it's Boston eight, Detroit five,

Brant and Brooks Robinson homering. Angels won, the White Sox nothing, down to the first inning, spring against Pizarro.
1607
03:13:46,000 --> 03:13:52,000
But in the second inning, Smith and Landis have homered for the White Sox to make at least two to one.
1608
03:13:52,000 --> 03:14:01,000
Lee Thomas homered for the Angels in the first. Kansas City five, Minnesota nothing in the four, Bass against Pralik.
1609
03:14:01,000 --> 03:14:12,000
Dottir relieved Pralik in the third. National League, Chicago six, Philadelphia one, end of six, Cardwell started for the Cubs.
1610
03:14:12,000 --> 03:14:17,000
Joseph Anderson relieved in the seventh. Roberts for Philadelphia, Faresi in the fifth.
1611
03:14:17,000 --> 03:14:25,000
Callison and Demeter have homered. Demeter, a grand slammer in the seventh inning for the Fills, so it's at least now six-five.
1612
03:14:25,000 --> 03:14:31,000
Pittsburgh three, Milwaukee two, end of seven, Sturtivant against Spahn. Spahn homered in the seventh.
1613
03:14:31,000 --> 03:14:38,000
Cincinnati beat St. Louis five to two. Bob Perky beat Sadecki. Post, Homer with two on.
1614
03:14:38,000 --> 03:14:49,000
And San Francisco leads Los Angeles two to nothing, end of two, Lowes against Williams.
1615
03:14:49,000 --> 03:14:56,000
Now to the ninth inning. Jimmy Peresol leads off.
1616
03:14:56,000 --> 03:15:01,000
Luis Torollo to the windup and the pitch swung on, hits to short.
1617
03:15:01,000 --> 03:15:07,000
Kubek's up with it, throws on to Scarron, one away.
1618
03:15:07,000 --> 03:15:16,000
Jimmy had had one for four, a double, and he took a two-run home run away from Blanchard.
1619
03:15:16,000 --> 03:15:21,000
Here's Tito Francona, who's at two for four.
1620
03:15:21,000 --> 03:15:28,000
Arroyo making his 58th appearance, a record of 14-3.
1621
03:15:28,000 --> 03:15:37,000
Billy Gardner, of course, has taken over third base for Boyer.
1622
03:15:37,000 --> 03:15:47,000
Tito in there for a strike. Johnny Romano on deck.
1623
03:15:47,000 --> 03:15:53,000
Now for delivery. Curve ball outside, ball one, one and one.
1624
03:15:53,000 --> 03:16:00,000
Jim Coates, whom Arroyo relieved, came on the third, nobody out.
1625
03:16:00,000 --> 03:16:09,000
Hit six innings, allowed five hits. Was charged with one run, but one hit he gave up was a three-run Homer. Two of the men put on the board.
1626
03:16:09,000 --> 03:16:29,000
Next delivery, outside, ball two, two and one.
1627
03:16:29,000 --> 03:16:47,000
Two-one pitch, way outside, ball three, three and one.
1628
03:16:47,000 --> 03:17:13,000
Now the delivery, swung on and fouled back, strike two, full count.
1629
03:17:13,000 --> 03:17:36,000
Now the three-two pitch, swung on and fouled back out of play.
1630
03:17:36,000 --> 03:17:50,000
Once again the wind up and the three-two pitch, swung on, fouled off, again out of play, back to third in the upper deck.
1631
03:17:50,000 --> 03:18:07,000
Ninth inning, one out. Gardner guarding that third baseline. Kubek way over near a second.
1632
03:18:07,000 --> 03:18:20,000
Once again Louis goes for the wind up and the pitch, swung on, it's a high pop into very short left, Kubek dancing out and makes the catch.
1633
03:18:20,000 --> 03:18:32,000
So there are two away and the banner of Johnny Romano with Willie Kirkland on deck.
1634
03:18:32,000 --> 03:18:44,000
Romano single to left, single to center, struck out, grounded to short, driven in two runs.
1635
03:18:44,000 --> 03:18:55,000
Heading 299. Here's the pitch on the way, swung on, a high, high pop foul.
1636
03:18:55,000 --> 03:19:02,000
He's forward moving toward it, 100 and has it and the ball game is over.
1637
03:19:02,000 --> 03:19:12,000
No runs, no hits, no errors, no one left on and the Yankees won their 11th straight game.
1638
03:19:12,000 --> 03:19:26,000
7-6. We'll have the totals in just a moment.
