Larry Bois shortstop and Don Money at third. 69 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,000 This pitch is a little low. 70 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,000 Leon Johnson is out on deck. 71 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,000 The outfield alignment is Joe Lifton left. 72 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,000 Larry Heisel in center and Byron Brown in right field. 73 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,000 It's a hot night in Philadelphia. 74 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,000 Here's a play and a drive in the air that he's left. 75 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,000 Going back is Lift. 76 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,000 He's way back and he makes the catch at the edge of the warning track. 77 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:18,000 And that's a blasted two shots here for put out. 78 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:25,000 As Harrelson sent Lift back to the edge of the warning track in front of the seats out there in left. 79 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,000 Two men out. 80 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,000 Leon Jones is the batter. 81 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:35,000 Hitting 284.

across. 87 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:56,000 In the middle of the first inning the score is New York maps nothing and the Phillies coming to pass. 88 00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,000 When you get the leap of hungries and your stomach wears a frown, 89 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,000 a cheeseburger from McDonald's will help to calm you down. 90 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:10,000 Because the burger is made of pure beef and the cheese is creamy nice and the best part of the whole thing is McDonald's tasty fries. 91 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:15,000 It's a bargain and scrumptious goodie to smile, not and say cheese. 92 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:19,000 A McDonald's cheeseburger, some french fries and a Coke. 93 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:20,000 Sounds good doesn't it? 94 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:25,000 McDonald's can put good food in your family and change back in your pocket. 95 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,000 You've heard about the dollar it used to buy a bunch. 96 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,000 Now when you try to use one you can hardly get a lunch. 97 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,000 Except at McDonald's now maybe this sounds strange. 98 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:45,000 But pass the buck to us and we'll pass you back some change like nickels and pennies and dollars and all the curious little round pieces of metal. 99 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:49,000 At McDonald's a dollar makes you a big spender. 100 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:56,000 McDonald's can put good food in your family and change back in your pocket. 101 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:08,000 Everybody OK over the home of the Mets for the capital district. 102 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,000 Ray Sadecki is the pitcher on the mound tonight for the New York Mets. 103 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,000 The left hander has a record of 8 wins and 4 losses against the Phils. 104 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,000 This year he's won 2 and he's lost none. 105 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:24,000 Sadecki's lifetime record against the Phillies is 15 wins and 13 losses. 106 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,000 Larry Poa is up to lead off. 107 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,000 He is a foot-hitter. 108 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:44,000 Batting right he has an 18 game hitting streak going and it's the longest Philly hitting streak since Pancho Herrera in 1960. 109 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:56,000 We have the warm-up for the game scheduled at Yankee Stadium now on the Western Union Pickers. 110 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,000 Now here's the pitch. 111 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,000 Point on and it pops up foul and might be playable to Grote. 112 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:05,000 He gets rid of the mask and Grote moves over and makes the catch. 113 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:10,000 So Larry Poa has fouled out the touch of Jerry Grote and Tony Taylor is coming up. 114 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,000 Taylor's hitting 290 to 9 all-munchers and 53 runs better than the warm-up. 115 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:24,000 Joe Coleman for Washington and Rob Gardner a former Mets just back from Syracuse starting tonight for the New York Yankees. 116 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:30,000 Earlier they had done an indication that the game in New York might be post-ponem because of a power shortage. 117 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,000 As a matter of fact information with Grote's effect that it has had then. 118 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:41,000 Obviously that is counting by moving as the pitch is warming up. 119 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:47,000 Tony Taylor, Tadecki fits in for a strike if he moves up his little button. 120 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,000 I'll never forget a comment by Rob Gardner that he made on a post-game show on TV. 121 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,000 He saw himself hit for the first time on TV. 122 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:59,000 He threw a curve ball and his comment was, my gosh even I could hit that. 123 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:00,000 But he couldn't. 124 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,000 Here's the pitch and it's high for a ball it's 1-1. 125 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:10,000 In St. Louis the finite doubleheader tonight between the Chicago Cubs and the St. Louis Cardinals at the end of 4 innings. 126 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,000 The Cardinals 2 and the Cubs 1. 127 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,000 Ferguson Jenkins against Bob Gibson. 128 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,000 They were rained out last night. 129 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:23,000 Two balls one strike to Tony Taylor with Don Money waiting on deck. 130 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,000 Rob had a great year at Syracuse and we certainly want to wish him luck. 131 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,000 He was a fine fellow with a mess. 132 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,000 He's got a lot of delivery and it's not away for a ball. 133 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,000 It's 3-1. 134 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,000 The Nets have an infield here tonight of Don Glenn Dunn in the first base. 135 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,000 Al Weiss at second base. 136 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,000 Bud Harrelson at short and Joe Foy at third. 137 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,000 Leon Jones in left. 138 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,000 Tommy Agyan center. 139 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,000 Ron Swavoda playing right field. 140 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,000 Here's a foul ball back and out of play. 141 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,000 It's 3-2. 142 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:58,000 The story of Vic Delmer's verbal verize released after last night's game was the big baseball story in here in Philadelphia 143 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,000 in the morning papers. 144 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:04,000 Which in a fit of pepper Delmer had said that he thought the game was fixed 145 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,000 and thought that umpire should be investigated. 146 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:14,000 The late to Louis Jones before the game told the press that he thought that the penalty was sufficient. 147 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,000 Here's a swing and a drive into center field for base 6. 148 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,000 And it is on by Agyan. 149 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,000 It'll be extra basis for Tony Taylor. 150 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,000 He's at second on his way to third. 151 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:27,000 Relay coming in and at third base he is late. 152 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:31,000 So Tony Taylor is at third. 153 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:39,000 It is a single and a two base error charged against Tommy Agyan center field. 154 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:43,000 It was a line drive but Agyan came over to try to come up with it and play it back 155 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,000 and instead he came up empty and the ball went on by. 156 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,000 For a two base error. 157 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,000 A good relay might have made it a closer play at third. 158 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,000 Foy had to come off the back at third to get the relay. 159 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:58,000 Then drive back across to try to get Taylor and could not. 160 00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,000 Don Money's up now. 161 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:00,000 One man out, run to third. 162 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,000 No score. 163 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,000 Philly is threatening him. 164 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:13,000 Bottom half of the first inning. 165 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,000 There's a pitch to the right hand batter. 166 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,000 Low for a ball. 167 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,000 Jody Bluffs to throw to third. 168 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:20,000 Taylor gets back to the bag in a hurry. 169 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:29,000 It's all right. 170 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,000 1-0 pitch. 171 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,000 Foul back and out of play. 172 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:39,000 It's 1-1. 173 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:45,000 It was worth to note that the umpires themselves did not feel that the $500 fine of Selma was sufficient penalty 174 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:50,000 and that they with their reports of course would work toward his suspension. 175 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,000 Here's a 1-1 pitch. 176 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,000 And it is low for a ball. 177 00:12:53,000 --> 00:13:04,000 2-1. 178 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,000 Tadecki takes the pass and Jerry Grote. 179 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,000 Off his 2-1. 180 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,000 Swung on and foul back. 181 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:15,000 2-2. 182 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:22,000 The official temperature in Philadelphia today reached 95 degrees, the highest of the fall season in downtown Philadelphia. 183 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:30,000 A reading of 100 was recorded in mid-afternoon. 184 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,000 2-2 pitch. 185 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:33,000 Swung on and on the ground to third. 186 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,000 Boy, I can't handle it. 187 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,000 Off his glove. 188 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,000 The run score. 189 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,000 Throw to first is in time. 190 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,000 The ball is on the edge of the infield grass. 191 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,000 Knocked it down. 192 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:44,000 Came up. 193 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,000 So he had no play at the plate. 194 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,000 So then threw on to first for the putout. 195 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,000 But the run score. 196 00:13:50,000 --> 00:14:02,000 And now Daron Johnson is the batter. 197 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,000 The Fills are leading by a score of 1-0. 198 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,000 Johnson's hitting.254. 199 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,000 The pitch is in for a cross-strike. 200 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:15,000 Johnson has 27 home runs and 87 runs battered in. 201 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,000 Joe Foy got to the ground ball all right. 202 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:21,000 Just did not handle it. 203 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,000 Low for the ball. 204 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:28,000 No error charge, of course, because he did make the putout at first base. 205 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:32,000 As far as the Mets are concerned, it would have been much better made at the plate. 206 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,000 Here is the 1-1 delivery. 207 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,000 It's high and away for a ball. 208 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:42,000 Two balls and a strike. 209 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:51,000 Joe List is out on deck for the Philadelphia Phillies. 210 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,000 Here's a 2-1 trick. 211 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,000 Fastball in there for a call strike two. 212 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:59,000 It's two and two. 213 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:03,000 George Brunette is the starter tonight for the Pittsburgh Pirates. 214 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,000 Something of a surprise move. 215 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,000 Carl Morton is starting for Montreal in Pittsburgh. 216 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,000 The pitch is low, three and two. 217 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:16,000 It had been presumed that Steve Blass would start tonight, 218 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,000 but he's not starting. 219 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,000 George Brunette is. 220 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:24,000 So apparently Danny Murtaugh is judging his pitchers. 221 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,000 Here's a payoff pitch. 222 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,000 It is low and it's a walk for Daron Johnson. 223 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,000 First walk issued by Ray Sedecky. 224 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:36,000 Put Johnson on it first and Joe List is coming up. 225 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,000 List is hitting 200, one homer and four runs batted in, 226 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:57,000 right hand batting left fielder. 227 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:09,000 That pitch is half of all, if one and all. 228 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,000 Again, Sedecky checks. 229 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:17,000 Here's a pitch that's foul back and out of play. 230 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,000 So Danny Murtaugh, the Pittsburgh Pirates, 231 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,000 here in the stretch drive has gone into his bullpen 232 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,000 and told that George Brunette hasn't started. 233 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,000 Earlier in the drive up at Montreal, 234 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,000 Leo De Rocha of the Chicago Cubs reached into his bullpen 235 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:37,000 and pulled out Bob Miller and posted him as it started. 236 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,000 One one-fifth, third ball, little high. 237 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:51,000 Two balls and a strike now to Joe List. 238 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,000 Daron Johnson leads it first. 239 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,000 Here's two one-fifths, side low and inside. 240 00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:09,000 Three and one to List with Tim McArber next in the order. 241 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,000 Three one-fifths is half of all. 242 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:16,000 That's the second consecutive walk issued by Ray Sedecky. 243 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,000 Daron Johnson moves to second. 244 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,000 Joe List is on it first, left hand batting catcher. 245 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,000 Tim McArber is coming up with a 2.44 average. 246 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,000 Three homers, six runs batted in. 247 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,000 We pass for station identification. 248 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,000 This is the New York Met Spaceball Network. 249 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,000 This is WOKO in Albany, New York. 250 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,000 Our temperature is 74 degrees. 251 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,000 Cahoe's Savings Bank time is now two minutes until 8 o'clock. 252 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,000 Time to look into a low-cost life insurance savings bank plan 253 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,000 at Cahoe's Savings Bank. 254 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,000 Here's Nelson with Ralph Kanner and Bob Murphy 255 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,000 at Connie Mack Stadium in Philadelphia, 256 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:50,000 where the Phils are leading the Mets by a score of one-nothing. 257 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:54,000 Nolan Ryan gets up to throw down on the bullpen for the New York Mets. 258 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:58,000 Sedecky has walked Daron Johnson and Joe List back to back here 259 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:02,000 with two men out in the bottom of the first inning. 260 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:08,000 Mitch Tim McArber is low for a ball. 261 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:12,000 Now here comes pitching coach Rube Walker out to the mound. 262 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,000 Pitching coach Rube Walker wiping perspiration 263 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,000 as he comes out of the dugout, head for the mound. 264 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,000 For a talk with Ray Sedecky. 265 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:33,000 The Mets will fly on to Pittsburgh at the conclusion of this ballgame tonight. 266 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:38,000 Tomorrow is an off day and they will then resume against the Pittsburgh Pirates 267 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:42,000 on Friday night, a big series at Three Rivers Stadium. 268 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:46,000 Friday night, Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon, 269 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:52,000 we'll be broadcasting and televising all three games from Pittsburgh this weekend. 270 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,000 Then the Mets will be back at Chase Stadium in New York on Monday night 271 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:59,000 to start a series of four consecutive games against the Chicago Cubs 272 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:05,000 to close out the regular National League season, the finale set for a 7.05 p.m. start 273 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,000 Thursday night, October 1st. 274 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:18,000 Now here's a pitch that's low, Sedecky goes behind to it out of McArber. 275 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:22,000 Mets started the night failing the Pittsburgh Pirates by three 276 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:27,000 and the Chicago Cubs by one. 277 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:31,000 Sedecky's pitch, flung on it on the ground to third, Joe Foy up for the ball, 278 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:36,000 he'll go to first and in time, close play but McArber is out. 279 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:41,000 So the Phil's got a run, on a hit there was an error, two walks and two left 280 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:47,000 and at the end of an inning the score is the Phil's one and the Mets nothing. 281 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,000 Plans for a mail order sale of Boston Reserve seats for a possible 282 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:55,000 National League Championship Series at Chase Stadium have been announced for the Mets. 283 00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:00,000 Mail order applications for Boston Reserve seats must be postmarked on or after 284

00:20:27,000 Only applications accompanied by a certified check, a money order, 291 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,000 or a cashier's check will be considered and should be addressed to 292 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:35,000 Post Office Box 1970, Lysing, New York, Zip Code 11352. 293 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:40,000 Each order must include an additional dollar to cover the cost of mailing and handling. 294 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,000 Championship Series is scheduled to open on Saturday, October 3rd 295 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,000 in the City of the Eastern Division winning. 296 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:50,000 After two games the title moves to Cincinnati over the Western Division champs. 297 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,000 In the event the Championship Series is not played at Chase Stadium, 298 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:57,000 tickets can be redeemed at any of the more than 300 branches of the Chase Manhattan 299 00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,000 or Manufacture's Hanover Trust Company Bank. 300 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:09,000 Now the Mets come up in the top of the second inning and it's Don Glenn Dunnett. 301 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:18,000 Glenn Dunnett is hitting 291. He has 20 home runs and 90 runs. 302 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,000 And he's right hand batting. 303 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,000 Facing left hand pitcher Chris Short. 304 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:27,000 Into the motion. The pitch is on the way. Foul back and out of play is strike one. 305 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:36,000 The appearance of Commissioner Buick-Kuhn here today had nothing at all to do with 306 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:41,000 the activities of last night and the dispute that ensued. 307 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,000 Here's a pitch. High and away for a ball. 308 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:48,000 The commissioner has made it a practice to visit each of the ball parks in the Major League 309 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:53,000 at least one time. His earlier visit scheduled here at County Max Stadium 310 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,000 had to be postponed and was reset for today. 311 00:21:56,000 --> 00:22:01,000 Here's a one one pitch. Low and hit in front of the plate comes on by. 312 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:05,000 And just by the plate umpire Dick Sello and the crowd gets a kick out of that. 313 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,000 It's two balls and a strike. 314 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:14,000 The Phillies are leading here by a score of one and nothing. 315 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,000 Chris Short into the motion. 316 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:37,000 Foul back and out of play. It's two and two to Clint Dunn. 317 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:42,000 So the Phillies have announced that the last ball game to be played at County Max Stadium 318 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:50,000 will be here on the night of October 1st when they'll meet the Montreal Expos. 319 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:55,000 Two two pitch. Plung on it on the ground is short. A big hop up to Larry Borg. 320 00:22:55,000 --> 00:23:00,000 That's the Darren Johnson in time and Clint Dunn is out. 321 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:05,000 Ron Swaboto is the batter. He's hitting 230 with nine almost and 40 runs that are done. 322 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:09,000 There was an editorial today however in a Philadelphia newspaper which said 323 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:13,000 don't take that enough but too seriously because the same announcement was made 324 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,000 to the closing date last year. 325 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,000 They had presumed that the Phillies would be playing in their new stadium this year 326 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:23,000 and it didn't turn out that way. As a matter of fact right now all work has been stopped 327 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:27,000 on the new stadium and there is no completion date, no projection. 328 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,000 That is M. Brickall's strike. 329 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:36,000 Swaboto appeared as a pinch hitter last night in the ninth against Selma and struck out on three pitches. 330 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:47,000 This short delivers. Plung on and this hits strike two to Ron Swaboto. 331 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,000 Elmer Carver sends out the sound. There's nobody on. 332 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:06,000 First strike delivers. Tired a little low so it's one and two. 333 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,000 Joe Foy waiting around there on deck. 334 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,000 Take short takes his cap off to mop the first beration. 335 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:28,000 One two three. Plung on and this got him with a breaking pitch. 336 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:34,000 That is the first strike out for short. It's Swaboto swinging two away and Joe Foy is the batter. 337 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:58,000 Foy is hitting 241 for the year. He's had six almost and 37 runs battered in. 338 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:05,000 Very short with the pitch. Back ball low and it's ball one. 339 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:10,000 There was a time when Chris Short was one of the slowest workers in Major League. 340 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:16,000 He had back surgery and since he'd come back from the operation he worked considerably faster than he once did. 341 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:22,000 That's M. Brickall's strike. Short used to be the master of moving the dirt around out on the mound. 342 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,000 He'd move it over to one side and then over the other with his cue. 343 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:29,000 Strange as I say this he's doing the same thing right now. 344 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:34,000 But one year his teammates presented him with a set of toy gardener spools. 345 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,000 They thought that he could do a little gardening out there. 346 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:41,000 Has a fastball high and away for a ball. It's two and one. 347 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:53,000 Two men out. Nobody on base and the field's lead by Escora one to nothing. 348 00:25:53,000 --> 00:26:01,000 Now the two on offering and there's F. Brickall's strike two. It's two and two to Joe Foy. 349 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:07,000 And that's starting tonight with a record of 80 wins and 74 losses. 350 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:13,000 The Cubs are 180 and lost 72 and the Pirates are 183 and lost 71. 351 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:17,000 Two to delivery. 352 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,000 Short strikes out Joe Foy. 353 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:24,000 Gets the side in order. The Mets have not yet had a baserunner. 354 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:31,000 Nothing is crossed and in the middle of the second inning the score is the Fills one and the Mets nothing. 355 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:35,000 We've always maintained at the bank that our regular checking account is even better than money. 356 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:42,000 It's safer more businesslike. You can mail a check and you can make deposits and withdrawals at any office of the bank. 357 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:49,000 Anyway we wonder just how many people agreed with us that a regular checking account at the bank is even better than money. 358 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:54,000 So we asked a few people. Excuse me madam I'm with the National Commercial Bank and Trust Company. 359 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:55,000 So? 360 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,000 Well I wonder madam can you think of anything that's even better than money? 361 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,000 Well not on hand. 362 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:07,000 Well we decided that maybe we were asking the question the wrong way so we tried it another way. 363 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:14,000 Excuse me there would you say that a regular checking account at the bank is safer more convenient and more businesslike than money? 364 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:18,000 Yes sounds pretty good to me. 365 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:25,000 Well there you have it a regular checking account at the bank.

00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,000 Half of all. 422 00:30:53,000 --> 00:31:05,000 Two and two. 423 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:08,000 The Wreckies 2-2 delivery. 424 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,000 Slung on and fouled back. 425 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:25,000 The count holds at 2-2. 426 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,000 Gary Grote sends out the sign. 427 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,000 This is a curveball missing high. 428 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:43,000 That goes three balls and two strikes now. 429 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,000 Here is the playoff pitch. 430 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,000 Slung on and hit in the air up the alley on right center field. 431 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,000 It'll be extra basis for Heisel. 432 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,000 He's around first on his way to second. 433 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,000 So a bowler up with the ball plays it back. 434 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,000 It's a double for Larry Heisel. 435 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,000 That ball went all the way to the scoreboard. 436 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,000 Out in right center. 437 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:11,000 And Quivota played it as it charmed off there. 438 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,000 Pretty short coming up now. 439 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,000 This is 3-50-8 this year at the plate. 440 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,000 He's had two runs batted in. 441 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,000 His average is.052. 442 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,000 The Pills are leading one to nothing. 443 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:25,000 They have a runner in second with one man out in the bottom of the second inning. 444 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:45,000 Low and inside for a ball. 445 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,000 Tadecki sets. 446 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,000 Offers 1-0. 447 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,000 Bowled off and out of play. 448 00:32:51,000 --> 00:33:03,000 1-1. 449 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:07,000 Pretty short as a fellow who bales out up there at the plate on anything tight. 450 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,000 Some pitches that aren't tight. 451 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:19,000 It's not entirely unusual for a pitcher to play more do than don't. 452 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,000 Swinging the ground ball to third taken by Foy. 453 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,000 He looks to run it. 454 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:24,000 Throws to first in time. 455 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,000 No advance. 456 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:28,000 Two away. 457 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,000 Pretty short with the ground ball right at Joe Foy at third base. 458 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,000 Larry Bowie is coming up. 459 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,000 He's been up one time and he fouled out to the catcher. 460 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:41,000 That's an 18-game hitting streak and an average of.252 with 32 runs batted in. 461 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:58,000 That's half a ball. 462 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:12,000 1-0. 463 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:13,000 Here's the 1-0 pitch. 464 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,000 Back ball fired inside low. 465 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:19,000 Tadecki goes behind to and out of Bowie and he's followed by Tony Taylor in the order. 466 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:29,000 2-0 pitch. 467 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,000 Swung on and hit in the air down the right field line. 468 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,000 Cameron over third to stand. 469 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,000 Flynn then is giving case. 470 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:35,000 It's going out of play. 471 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:42,000 In the second row of the stands down the right field line. 472 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:52,000 2-1 is the count to Larry Bowie. 473 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:53,000 Tick. 474 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:54,000 Gets a little more tick. 475 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:57,000 That's one of the things that make RC stand out from the other colas. 476 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,000 A couple of steps and you'll catch the difference. 477 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,000 Royale found colas. 478 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,000 Swing and a ground ball. 479 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,000 He's short. 480 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:05,000 But Haraldson has it. 481 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,000 Goes across the first in time and the side is out. 482 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,000 Larry Bowie grounding out short to first. 483 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:17,000 No runs are hit, no errors and one left and at the end of two innings to play the score is the Phillies 1-0. 484 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:23,000 Hi everyone, I'm Charles Douglas Pitts and I'm a night people here on WOKO. 485 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:28,000 If you're a night people too

friendly chatter. 487 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:40,000 Remember you're only a stranger once on WOKO's Charles Douglas Pitts show. 488 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:50,000 You're listening to the sound of America. 489 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:56,000 WOKO 1460 radio in Albany. 490 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,000 WOKO brings you the best in good time music. 491 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:04,000 All American

00:36:19,000 WOKO the home of the Mets for the capital district. 495 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:28,000 100. 496 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,000 We're going now to the top of the third. 497 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,000 The Mets coming up running by one and here for the play by play Bob Murphy. 498 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:40,000 All right Rob Jerry Grody will lead off against the veteran left hander Chris Short. 499 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:44,000 Short has retired the first six men to face him. 500 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:52,000 However the first two men up in the game Tommy Agee and Bud Harrelson both had hard line drives to the outfield overclocked. 501 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:56,000 And the pitch to Jerry Grody is outside ball one. 502 00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:01,000 Chris Short the tall left hander from the University of Delaware. 503 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:06,000 Out practically all of last year after undergoing back surgery. 504 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:09,000 Has come back to win nine games this year. 505 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:18,000 Had a fastball outside two balls and no strikes. 506 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:25,000 Al Weiss the on deck batter and then Ray Sedecky. 507 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:29,000 Short has set two very strong ball games against the Mets this year. 508 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:34,000 And a line drive hit hard down the right field line a base hit by Jerry Grody. 509 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:42,000 Jerry around first on his way to second and he pulls in with a double. 510 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:49,000 Hard hit drive over the head of Darren Johnson down the right field line and into the corner. 511 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:58,000 The Mets have their first base hit of the game and the tying run is on second. 512 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:08,000 Al Weiss coming up Al batting at two ten. 513 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:14,000 Now Chris Short looking in to get his sign from Jim McArthur. 514 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:19,000 Here's the pitch on the way curve with the knees that cause strikes. 515 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:23,000 The Chicago Cubs are out of the sixth inning in the same look. 516 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:27,000 At the end of five and a half the Cardinals two and the Cubs one. 517 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:31,000 Fishing duel between Ferguson Jenkins and Bob Gibson. 518 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:32,000 Jenkins a 20 game winner. 519 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,000 Gibson a 22 game winner. 520 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:39,000 Jenkins has now won 20 or more four years in a row. 521 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:43,000 And he's the only nice delayed pitcher who can say that. 522 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:46,000 Had a foul ball hit back upstairs no play. 523 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:50,000 Montreal got a run in the first inning off George Bruinette. 524 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:54,000 Bruinette the left hander picked up from Washington has been working out of the bullpen. 525 00:38:54,000 --> 00:39:01,000 He gets his first start and a 16 game winner Carl Morton gets a United for Montreal. 526 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:10,000 So the extra scratch down a run in the first inning at Three Rivers Stadium in Pittsburgh. 527 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:15,000 Left hander Chris Short with a two strike count on Al Weiss. 528 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:18,000 Jerry Grote on second nobody out. 529 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:26,000 And the pitcher on the way fastball strike free call. 530 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:33,000 First strike out for Chris Short as he gets Al Weiss and brings up Ray Sedecky. 531 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:37,000 Sedecky a much better than average hitter for a pitcher. 532 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:45,000 Especially against right handers but in the last game he's up against the left hander in Chris Short. 533 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:49,000 The first pitching staff Ray Sedecky and Danny Fisela are both left hand hitters. 534 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:54,000 Both do very well against right handers but have a lot of trouble against southpaw pitchers. 535 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:57,000 And a ground ball hit down the first baseline foul. 536 00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:05,000 Taken across the line by Darren Johnson no play. 537 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,000 The Phillies scored an unearned run in the first inning. 538 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:14,000 And the Phillies lead one nothing we're in the top half of the third. 539 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,000 They've done very well against the Phillies this year. 540 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:20,000 They have won 12 of 17 ball games. 541 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:28,000 An amazing thing the Phillies nine games over 500 against the Western Division National League teams this year. 542 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:33,000 Against the Western Division they won 40 and lost 31. 543 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:40,000 Inside and low to Ray Sedecky one ball one strike. 544 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:51,000 And the weatherman says more hot weather to mouth. 545 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,000 Chris Short with a count of one and one on Ray Sedecky. 546 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:57,000 Grody the tying run on second one duff. 547 00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:03,000 And a chopper foul off to the left going toward the dugout of the Philadelphia Phillies no play. 548 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:07,000 One ball and two strikes. 549 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,000 The Cubs and Cardinals playing a double hitter. 550 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:10,000 They were rained out last night. 551 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:18,000 They waited a long time trying to get the game in. 552 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,000 Second game of that double hitter in St. Louis tonight. 553 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:32,000 It will probably be a rookie South Park Jerry Royce pitching for the Cardinals and Bill Hens for Chicago. 554 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,000 Now short up in pitching position. 555 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:35,000 The one two delivery. 556 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:36,000 Swing and a miss. 557 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:37,000 He's drug him out. 558 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:41,000 He's got him with a breaking ball. 559 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:45,000 Fourth strike out for Chris Short the 32 year old left hander. 560 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,000 Now lead off batter Tommy Hachey comes up. 561 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,000 And Tommy hit a long drive. 562 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,000 The left center started the game off. 563 00:41:52,000 --> 00:42:01,000 That was caught on the dead run out of the edge of the warning flag by Larry Heintzler. 564 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:06,000 Tommy had the game when he hit last night when he singled off Vic Selma in the ninth inning driving two runs in. 565 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:13,000 This is RBI total for the year of the 73. 566 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:14,000 Jody leading off second. 567 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:15,000 Here's the pitch on the way. 568 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:16,000 Sal back towards the screen. 569 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:21,000 No play. 570 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,000 It is not a large crowd by any means. 571 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:24,000 It's not in my opinion. 572 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,000 It is a loud crowd. 573 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:37,000 The Mets again tonight have a lot of fans down from New York. 574 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:44,000 All remaining games for the Phillies this year will be played here in County Mike City. 575 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,000 Now the call left hander. 576 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:47,000 Touch the runner. 577 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:48,000 Here's the pitch to Tommy Hachey. 578 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:55,000 Low and inside one ball and one strike. 579 00:42:55,000 --> 00:43:05,000 After the game tonight the Mets have three in Pittsburgh and four back in Chicago including the added game on Monday night the 28th. 580 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:10,000 The Mets will play the Cubs Monday night, Thursday night, Wednesday afternoon and Thursday night. 581 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:13,000 The Thursday night, October 1st game is kind of appreciation day. 582 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,000 That game starts at 7.05 p.m. 583 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,000 The 1-1 delivery hit hard. 584 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:28,000 A face-hook to Sunnifield by Tommy Hachey. 585 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:31,000 For Tommy Hachey, 74th run batted in. 586 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:35,000 It tires the game up. 587 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:40,000 And for Tommy Hachey, his 174th face-hook. 588 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:44,000 And that tires the club record that had been held by Tommy Davis. 589 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:50,000 174 hits in one face-hook. 590 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:54,000 Hachey hit the ball very hard his first time up. 591 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:57,000 And now this time he lands the ball hard in the center field. 592 00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:00,000 A clean base and bringing home Terry Grote. 593 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:01,000 The game is tied 1-1. 594 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:04,000 Top of the third inning, Bud House in the batter. 595 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:08,000 Bud lined out the deep left his first time up. 596 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,000 And it's over. 597 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:15,000 The ball is a letter. 598 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:18,000 Grote lead off with a line double down the right field line. 599 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:21,000 Short then struck out, Al Weiss and Ray Sedecky. 600 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:24,000 But Tommy Hachey delivering a two-out single up the middle 601 00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:28,000 ties the game up. 602 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,000 At a throw to first, it is not in time. 603 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:39,000 Filly receiving an eye on Tommy Hachey. Tommy has stolen 30 bases. 604 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:42,000 Now Chris Short throws to first base. 605 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:46,000 Did you notice that Tommy Harper joined a very select group? 606 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:51,000 When he homeward yesterday, his 30th of the year, he also has stolen 30 bases. 607 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:55,000 There goes the runner at a high fly ball hit the right center. 608 00:44:55,000 --> 00:45:00,000 Byron Brown moves over. He's under it and he has it for the out. 609 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,000 One run, two hits, no errors, one left. 610 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:11,000 In the middle of the third inning, the New York Mets won and the Philadelphia Phillies won. 611 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:16,000 You know, nobody's ever met Ty Cobb's record for stolen bases. 612 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:20,000 During his career, he managed to run up a total of 892. 613 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:24,000 Well, stealing bases certainly is a tricky art. 614 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:28,000 Your timing has to be just right or you'll be caught short in the middle. 615 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:32,000 Timing is just as important when brewing a great beer. 616 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:36,000 That's why Rheingold is the slow way. 617 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:39,000 Long enough to let the beer carbonate itself naturally. 618 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:43,000 And Rheingold is made with the finest natural ingredients. 619 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:52,000 North Dakota barters, great American course, imported and domestic hops, and pure brewers water. 620 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:56,000 So you get all that refreshing extra dry taste every time. 621 00:45:56,000 --> 00:46:00,000 Pour yourself a Rheingold right now. Natural Rheingold. 622 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:20,000 And Rheingold Breweries, Inc., New York, New York, and Orange, New Jersey, ask you to help keep America beautiful. 623 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:24,000 Tony Taylor faces ways for Becky, bottom half of the third inning. 624 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:30,000 Taylor, more than any other Philly, has dealt damaging blows to the Mets during the course of the year. 625 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:35,000 With the bases loaded, last night in the last of the eighth inning, he triple-drives and three runs in. 626 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:40,000 He runs up as if the Bunch takes the pitch at the strike of the inside corner. 627 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:46,000 And Tony Taylor did not like the call by Big Fellow and Fellow for the chip bank in the batter spot. 628 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:58,000 It was a lively evening around here last night. Three of the Phillyers were ejected during the course of the ballgame, including the manager, Frank O'Casey. 629 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:04,000 And it's over, Frank's free call to Tony Taylor. 630 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:08,000 The Parish did not score against Carl Morton in the last of the first. 631 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:14,000 At the end of one, Montreal won, Pittsburgh nothing. 632 00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:19,000 On the ground ball, it's slowly moving to his left go-for it, and he throws it across in time for the off. 633 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:23,000 One out and nobody on. We par for station identification. 634 00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:25,000 This is the New York Mets baseball network. 635 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:30,000 This is WOKL in Albany, New York. Our temperature now, 74 degrees. 636 00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:33,000 Cahoe savings bank time is 28 minutes past eight. 637 00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:37,000 Time to open a big dividend savings account at Cahoe Savings Bank with offices in Latham and Cahoe. 638 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,000 This was Ralph Koerner and Lindsay Nopren. 639 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:43,000 Last of the third inning, the game tied 1-1. 640 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:47,000 For the facilities, the number three hitter, Don Money, faces Ray Sivecki. 641 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,000 He bounced out the third, his only time up. 642 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:53,000 At a drive, hit on the other right center field, it'll be a baser. 643 00:47:53,000 --> 00:48:03,000 Just beyond the reach of Al, why is he legged into the outfield trying to get a play? 644 00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:06,000 For the facilities, their third hit off, Ray Sivecki. 645 00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:10,000 And Darren Johnson comes up. 646 00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:16,000 Darren hitting 254, has 27 home runs, 87 runs, got it in. 647 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,000 Here he's going to watch his first time up. 648 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:24,000 Now the Mets have the infield looking for two in a stride around the left. 649 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,000 That's ball outside, ball one. 650 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:34,000 Let's play the outfield deep against Darren, who has a lot of power, and they're playing the stride or two-court left. 651 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:40,000 Runs it in the hole, he's going to get a baser on their Don Money. 652 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:44,000 Serve inside and low, two balls and no strides. 653 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,000 Not a buzzer there in the ball park. 654 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:55,000 Certainly not enough breeze to have any effect on the game at all. 655 00:48:55,000 --> 00:49:01,000 The 2-0 delivery, swing and a miss right there, and Johnson, two balls and one strike. 656 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:08,000 New York one run on two hits, one air. Philadelphia one run, three hits, no air. 657 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:14,000 The Cardinals lead the Cubs 2-1 in the fifth inning. 658 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:16,000 Swing and a miss, 2-1-B. 659 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:23,000 Dan Lewis has been at bat quite a while in the last of the fifth inning. 660 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:31,000 Sometimes you're a fool, sometimes the transmission is just slow and coming through. 661 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:40,000 Now the 2-2 delivery, high and away, ball three. 662 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:48,000 Game time temperature tonight was 84 degrees. 663 00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:55,000 Now Money leads first, let's keep an eye on him, and Sadecki lobs the ball over to Klindetter. 664 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:58,000 Let's see how Franklin Chase he has to play on. 665 00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:04,000 One man away, Money on third, three and two on Darren Johnson. 666 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:13,000 At a throw to first, not in time. 667 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:14,000 Sadecki in the second position. 668 00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:18,000 There goes the runner, here's the pitch lined hard, a base hit to left center field. 669 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:20,000 A round second is Money, only play the third. 670 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,000 Hagee fouling the ball back in. 671 00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:27,000 The Phillies have runners on first and third. 672 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:37,000 And this is good group, Walker goes to grab the telephone. 673 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:45,000 Darren Johnson on three and two with Money on the go, rips the ball hard in the left center field. 674 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:51,000 Springs up to our left to rookie left fielder. 675 00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:57,000 Nolan Ryan gets up again in the bullpen. 676 00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:01,000 Lift the right hand batter. 677 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:04,000 Coming off of a good year in the postman. 678 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:10,000 The infield now hoping for a chance to make two and Sadecki is in trouble here on the bottom half of the third inning. 679 00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:13,000 Money on third, Johnson on first with one man out. 680 00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:16,000 Game tied one-one. 681 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:19,000 Pass ball, strength one. 682 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:24,000 Tim McIver beyond the game. 683 00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:29,000 Phillies now have four hits off Ray Sadecki. 684 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,000 Sadecki checks the runners, now the pitch. 685 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:41,000 Foul back toward the screen and Ray gets out in front with the two-stacks down. 686 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,000 Tony Taylor, the leadoff batter, was retired. 687 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:52,000 But Money is single to right center and on three and two with Money running, Darren Johnson hammered a hard single in the left center. 688 00:51:52,000 --> 00:52:01,000 Fill for runners on first and third. 689 00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:08,000 Sadecki getting it's time from Jerry Gooder. 690 00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:14,000 And the pitcher on the way just missed the outside corner, one ball and two strikes. 691 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:22,000 Last time Sadecki faced the Phillies he beat them with a brilliant effort and he struck out Flaub along the way. 692 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,000 Pitching one and two. 693 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,000 High outside for him too. 694 00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:34,000 Brody walks through out in front of the plate. 695 00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:41,000 Nolan Ryan picked up the win and relief in the game last night and Ryan is back to work in the midst of open. 696 00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:44,000 Sadecki has been facing two batters last night. 697 00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:48,000 The 2-2 delivery outside ball three. 698 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:54,000 Sadecki had a two-stack down and now the count is all the way out at three and two. 699 00:52:54,000 --> 00:53:00,000 Now we'll keep an eye on Darren Johnson the runner on first and see if he goes. 700 00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,000 Al Weiss and Buddy Harrelson looking for two. 701 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:06,000 Here's the pitcher on a go and swinging on air and now hung up. 702 00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:12,000 Foy runs in court home plate and Foy tags him out double play by the Tigers. 703 00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:18,000 Sadecki made the big play on three and two with Johnson running. 704 00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:20,000 Sadecki struck out Joe Liz. 705 00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:22,000 What a big one. 706 00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,000 Brody flops the throw to second. 707 00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,000 Patten lured money into the track. 708 00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:32,000 Money was caught between third and home and bagged out by Joe Foy. 709 00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:35,000 A big double play

at the end of an inning and a half. 725 00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:12,000 The Cardinals two and the Cubs one bottom half of the seventh. 726 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:23,000 Swing and a miss by Brian Jones one ball one strike. 727 00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:30,000 Brian slide to right his first time up batting two eighty four. 728 00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:36,000 One one delivery by short way outside his two balls and a strike. 729 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:41,000 Ray Sabecki made a big play when he struck out Joe Liss on three and two. 730 00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:50,000 So he bluffs the throw through to second base and lured money into a trap between third and home. 731 00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:57,000 The two and one swing and a miss by a few balls and two strikes. 732 00:55:57,000 --> 00:56:02,000 Billy scored in the first inning as a result of a base hit and an error. 733 00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:15,000 Let's bag the game in the third inning on his double and a two ounce single by Tommy Avery. 734 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:21,000 The game turned to a ground ball that is hit down to third. Parable grabbed behind third by money. 735 00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:30,000 The long throw in time. Good arm by Dan Money who's still at that grounder deep behind third almost across the line. 736 00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:35,000 One out of nobody on that one coming up. 737 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:45,000 John Benin had another unfortunate last night when he's single the base is loaded driving two runs. 738 00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:54,000 Only four of the first year of expansion and low polo ground by Frank Gommers. 739 00:56:54,000 --> 00:57:06,000 Dan is running out for Glendetta to tie or better to record. 740 00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:08,000 Here's the picture on the way. Fastball on a golf shot. 741 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:20,000 Interesting thing for Glendetta. He has 90 RBI's and 113 ballgames. His ratio certainly has been imperfect. 742 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:26,000 And the pitch thrown to Don Glendetta. Fastball over, strike, deep ball. 743 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:38,000 Two veteran left handers hooked up tonight here at County Mike's Stadium. 744 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:41,000 Whole other year this short has been very tough on the message. 745 00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:46,000 Lifetime mark against the message. 11 wins and 5 losses. 746 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:53,000 The first time he's delivered well hit fly ball to center field. 747 00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:59,000 Glendetta made good contact but he hit it straight away. 748 00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:07,000 Earlier this year in this ballpark Glendetta became the second man in the history of the ballpark to hit one over the outstriped center field wall. 749 00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:13,000 The only other performer to do it was Ricky Allen. 750 00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:22,000 And nobody on top of the fourth inning. A game even 1-1 in a battle around Swabota. 751 00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:25,000 High and away ball was. 752 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:29,000 What a girl they have going out in St. Louis with a 220 game winner hooked up. 753 00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:32,000 Ferguson Jenkins against Bob Gibson. 754 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:38,000 Cardinals leading 2-1 in the seventh. 755 00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:44,000 He holds up on the swings. That's in time. A great slow inside. Deep balls and no strikes. 756 00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:53,000 Brown was struck out his first handed back. 757 00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:58,000 First short has Jenkins over. Let's not walk about it. 758 00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:02,000 And a ground ball hits hard. The whole money comes up with it going off to his left. 759 00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:04,000 And so is my other veteran, Jackson. 760 00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:09,000 The next get on 1-2-3. No runs, no hits, no errors from none left. 761 00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:15,000 In the middle of the fourth inning at County Mass Stadium the New York Mets won the Philadelphia Phillies 1. 762 00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:23,000 Weinberg Tires has the Michelin X-Radio Tire, the world's first radial featuring a safety belt of steel wrapped around each tire right under the tread. 763 00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:29,000 Virtually eliminates punctures and blowouts.

He bounced out to Joe Foer on the opening inning. 778 01:00:53,000 --> 01:01:05,000 Due to a broken hand, McArthur has played only 37 games this year. He's sitting at 243. 779 01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:19,000 Left-hander against left-hander, the pitch by Sudecky. Foul ball back under our broadcasting. Loosen out of play, Frank Watt. 780 01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:24,000 Sudecky had to work very hard in pitching out of trouble in the last inning. 781 01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:29,000 It's a hot night and Ray has thrown quite a few pitches. 782 01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:33,000 Brown ball hit hard through the middle of it. He's hit by McArthur. 783 01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:36,000 Foul and the eights here for the blips that back in. 784 01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:39,000 Five hits now for the Phillies and they have their leadoff batter on. 785 01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:49,000 Which means they'll once again raise Sudecky under the gun and will have to be reaching back for the extra. 786 01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:59,000 Well, they're going to the ninth inning in St. Louis with Bob Gibson and the Cardinals leading the Chicago Cubs and Ferguson Jenkins by a score of 2-1. 787 01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:06,000 The hitter is Byron Brown, the right fielder, and the breaking ball is over to strike one. 788 01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:12,000 Nolan Ryan is up for the third time in the next bullpen. 789 01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:19,000 Brown right hand batter. Foul hit back upstairs to counter strike two. 790 01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:27,000 Byron Brown hitting at 2-49. You have to be careful with him. He does have power. 791 01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:32,000 Larry Heisel gives the on deck batter. 792 01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:36,000 Sudecky takes his run in and has the pitch. Strike three called. He got it. 793 01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:44,000 Sudecky's third strike out and he gets Byron Brown on three pitches. 794 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:48,000 With one away, the center fielder Larry Heisel will be stepping in. 795 01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:56,000 And Heisel hit a hard long double to right center his first time up. 796 01:02:56,000 --> 01:03:04,000 Heisel strikes out a lot, but when he makes contact, he is strong. 797 01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:16,000 Pitch by Sudecky. Swing and a miss. Strike one. 798 01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:21,000 That's one. That's the least one. Last and the fourth inning. 799 01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:29,000 Long drive. He's left and well back, well back and got a home run. 800 01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:38,000 A two run home run by Larry Heisel. And he hit it over the 410 pitch mark. 801 01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:45,000 So Heisel has been a quite doubled and hit a home run. And the Phillies are in front three to one. 802 01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:51,000 Heisel is a home run of the year. A line shot that exploded off the bat. 803 01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:55,000 It almost straight away in the center, just a little bit toward left center. 804 01:03:55,000 --> 01:04:02,000 Larry cleared the wall at the 410 mark. 805 01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:09,000 Heisel has been hurting the Mets in this series. 806 01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:15,000 And now Chris George steps in and now has a two run lead, a pitch by Sudecky. 807 01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:24,000 Down ball that is going foul down the third base line. 808 01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:35,000 Heisel's home run is tense. Last year as the Ritz side lined about half of the year he had 20 home runs. 809 01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:40,000 A pitch by Ray Sudecky and a shot to short. A one hopper handled by Brett Harrelson. 810 01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:44,000 Now he's straightened up, throws to Glendon and short is out. 811 01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:48,000 Low line drive and it was wicked. It directly towards Buddy Houser. 812 01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:54,000 He caught the hop right up in front of his face. 813 01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:58,000 Two outs and nobody on top of the batting order for the shortstop Larry Boer. 814 01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:04,000 Boer, a foot-fitter, has gone over two. Foul down to the catcher, bounce back to short. 815 01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:11,000 He's got a two-game lead in the series. 816 01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:17,000 Filly is three and the Mets one on a two run homer by Larry Heisel. 817 01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:20,000 Got a ground ball he's got to go for it. A third he's up with it. 818 01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:24,000 Throws to Glendon and the Filly is retired. 819 01:05:24,000 --> 01:05:29,000 But they regain the lead scoring two runs on two hits. No errors and then left on. 820 01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:35,000 At the end of four is the Filly three and the New York Mets one. 821 01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:39,000 To really appreciate our cigar you have to smoke their cigars. 822 01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:44,000 Go ahead, light up any other two-for-a-quarter cigar in America. 823 01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:47,000 Then light up a two-for-a-quarter White Owl New Yorker. 824 01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:51,000 Make a puff on their cigar. That's pretty good. 825 01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:55,000 Then take a puff on our White Owl New Yorker and see what you think. 826 01:05:55,000 --> 01:06:00,000 Do it a few more times. A puff on theirs, a puff on ours. 827 01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:05,000 A puff on theirs, and a puff on ours. 828 01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:09,000 If you think this is a good way to make a point, you're right. 829 01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:12,000 But don't take my word for it. Try it yourself. 830 01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:17,000 All you need is a White Owl New Yorker and any other two-for-a-quarter cigar in America. 831 01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:23,000 To really appreciate our cigar you have to smoke their cigar. 832 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:27,000 That White Owl New Yorker. Our cigar. 833 01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:42,000 The fifth running here in Philadelphia. 834 01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:46,000 Filly's lead by four, three, one on high-field, two run homers. 835 01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:49,000 Joe Foy is facing Chris George. Foy was struck out. 836 01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:54,000 He's three-time up. Joe hitting 240 with six homers. 837 01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:58,000 Going in a miss for the High Heighters. 838 01:06:58,000 --> 01:07:02,000 Joe Hages has no one. Ryan continued to work in the bullpen, 839 01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:07,000 indicating he would put up a thin-killer if the next team gets somebody on. 840 01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:10,000 Quick seven and eight in the batting order due to him. 841 01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:14,000 Now it's high and Foy lays off one ball, one strike. 842 01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:19,000 The Mets scored a run in the third on a double by Grote. He had a two-hour single by Tommy Hages. 843 01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:28,000 Filly scored an unearned run in the first and then added two in the fourth inning on a high-field home run. 844 01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:34,000 Swing and a miss for the Bergen Ball, one and two. 845 01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:39,000 Jerry Grote on deck and then Al White. 846 01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:48,000 The Pirates got a run to tie up the Montreal Expos. They are tied one-to-one in the second. 847 01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:52,000 Swing and a miss for the WI. A fast ball of it is out. 848 01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:55,000 Foy goes down for the second time. 849 01:07:55,000 --> 01:08:03,000 Five strikeouts for Chris George, and the veteran left-hander appears to be throwing very hard. 850 01:08:03,000 --> 01:08:06,000 Now the hitter is Jerry Grote. 851 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:15,000 Jerry has one of the two hits off Chris George and has scored the miss for us. 852 01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:20,000 It's all over in the St. Louis.

884 01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:20,000 They'll ask me that, and in return I tell them about the bank book, yes, from the bank. 885 01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:25,000 The bank book pays you a guaranteed five percent per annum, that means per year, on your savings. 886 01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:30,000 The bank only requires an initial deposit of at least $500, only $500. 887 01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:35,000 Additional deposit of at least $100 and 90 days' written notice, if you want to make it with law. 888 01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:40,000 That's your bank book story, it has a golden cover, you know it's top quality class. 889 01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:46,000 The Bank, National Commercial Bank and Trust Company, is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. 890 01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:54,000 Nolan Ryan comes in the ballgame to take over the pitching last of the first inning. 891 01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:58,000 Ryan's last two outings in the release, he has saved the game for Danny Purceller. 892 01:11:58,000 --> 01:12:02,000 He was the winning pitcher last night, it was the best rally to the ninth inning to win it. 893 01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:06,000 Last night Nolan faced only two batters, retired both. 894 01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:09,000 One is seventh game of the year against Penn Lawson. 895 01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:13,000 For Nolan Ryan, this will be his fourth straight relief outing. 896 01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:16,000 He went to the bullpen on September the 13th. 897 01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:29,000 Tony Taylor, Don Money and Darren Johnson, two, three and four in the third of batting order to hit against Ryan. 898 01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:36,000 In the last half of the fifth inning, Ray Sadeghi did not have his good stuff going for him in the bank. 899 01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:41,000 Ray worked four innings, allowed three runs, picked up, walked through and struck out three. 900 01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:43,000 Ray was a little bit wild in the strike zone. 901 01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:51,000 Tony Taylor has singled a right center, he raced around the third when the ball got by, 902 01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:59,000 he was waiting for an error, then he came in on the ground back. Ryan's delivery is outside ball one. 903 01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:10,000 Every game virtually a must game for the New York Mets. 904 01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:17,000 And a fastball inside of the letters, two balls with no strikes for Tony Taylor. 905 01:13:17,000 --> 01:13:21,000 Tony Taylor hitting two ninety-three. 906 01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:29,000 And a line drive down the right field line, a face-tip rolling deep down into the corner, 907 01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:31,000 being pursued by Ryan Svoboda. 908 01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:34,000 And Tony Taylor eased within the second with a double. 909 01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:43,000 Taylor hitting late against Ryan's fastball, hit a right of the sun-drying set and paribied out of breath. 910 01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:47,000 It was hit hard and went flying down into the corner. 911 01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:54,000 By the way, if you're thinking of starting up a savings or checking account, 912 01:13:54,000 --> 01:13:57,000 drop into any convenient Chase Manhattan branch. 913 01:13:57,000 --> 01:14:02,000 Remember you've got a friend at Chase Manhattan, member of the FDIC. 914 01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:10,000 Don Money, the third baseman, has one for two, single his last time out. 915 01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:13,000 Swing and a miss, strike one. 916 01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:17,000 Money is hitting three oh two. 917 01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:22,000 After Money got his base hit, Johnson followed with a base hit, putting runners on first and third. 918 01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:25,000 Didn't seem a big play in the ball game. 919 01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:32,000 But I think he struck out Joe Lipson three and two and they caught Money. 920 01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:34,000 Wild Pits goes all the way to the backstop. 921 01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:37,000 And moving over to third, Tony Taylor. 922 01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:40,000 Ryan on his third, uncorked to Wild Pits. 923 01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:43,000 In the counters, one and one, the runner goes to third. 924 01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:46,000 And Gell-Heit just gets Ryan Herbal up in the bullpen. 925 01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:51,000 Now the Mets have to bring the infield in. 926 01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:55,000 It's always good to get bounties to the hitter. 927 01:14:59,000 --> 01:15:02,000 Going right into his lineup, here's the pitcher on the way. 928 01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:04,000 High fly ball, it's a deep right field. 929 01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:06,000 It will score a run. 930 01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:08,000 Taylor is tagged up, Ceboda makes the catch. 931 01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:10,000 Here comes the throw by Ron Ceboda. 932 01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:12,000 He's threw it completely over the head. 933 01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:14,000 Very good. 934 01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:19,000 He knew he had to make a very impossible run. 935 01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:21,000 Because he was out there pretty deep. 936 01:15:21,000 --> 01:15:25,000 So Ron is trying to get even more than he possessed on the throw. 937 01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:27,000 So it completely over-drowed his head. 938 01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:35,000 It was a desperation try because Ron knew he was that far out of the infield. 939 01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:39,000 Gell-Heit's lead by three. 940 01:15:39,000 --> 01:15:40,000 He's got a run four to one. 941 01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:44,000 Sacrifice fly and a run batted in for Don Money. 942 01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:52,000 A hard ground ball by Darren Johnson through the hole. 943 01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:54,000 Right field for a base hit. 944 01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:58,000 And then Johnson with Ryan Herbal first pitch and the right for a green finger. 945 01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:04,000 And Owen Ryan runs into trouble as he takes over the pitcher in the last of the fifth inning. 946 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:09,000 Ryan Herbal throwing hard in the bullpen and here comes Gil Hodgeman. 947 01:16:09,000 --> 01:16:12,000 Gil Hodgeman is on his way to the mound. 948 01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:16,000 Ryan has faced three men. 949 01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:18,000 All three have hit the ball hard. 950 01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:21,000 Taylor doubled on the right field line. 951 01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:24,000 Money hit a fly ball to rather deep right field getting the run home. 952 01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:28,000 And Darren Johnson has singled a ride and Gil Hodgeman takes the ball. 953 01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:31,000 So Ron Herbal comes in the ballgame. 954 01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:36,000 He will be the third pitcher called on by the New York Mets. 955 01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:43,000 The facilities in front by score of four to one, bottom half of the fifth inning. 956 01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:50,000 And while we're waiting on Ron Herbal to come in, let's check with Ralph Koehner and get updated on the other major league actions. 957 01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:54,000 All right Bob Murphy, first let's pause for station identification. 958 01:16:54,000 --> 01:16:56,000 This is the New York

It was his 23rd and when he's lost six. 965 01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:32,000 The losing pitcher was Ferguson Jenkins. His record 20 and 16. 966 01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:41,000 Cubs made four errors in that ball game as the St. Louis Cardinals scored two runs in the second and made them hold up as the Cubs got one run in the fourth. 967 01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:45,000 At the end of three, San Diego nothing, Atlanta nothing. 968 01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:48,000 At the end of two, it's Cincinnati four, Houston nothing. 969 01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:53,000 San Francisco scheduled against Los Angeles and at Pittsburgh at the end of two and a half innings, Montreal one. 970 01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:55,000 The Pittsburgh Pirates won. 971 01:17:55,000 --> 01:18:01,000 Raoul Morton 16 and 11 going for the Etpo, George Winnett 0 and 0 going for the Pirates. 972 01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:08,000 In the American League at the end of three, the Yankees three, Washington one, Coleman and Rob Gardner working that ball game. 973 01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:12,000 Dick Billings got a home run in the third with no one on for Washington in the first of the year. 974 01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:19,000 Cleveland beat Boston five to two when he picked it with Hargan, Harrelson, Fuller and Lulú at home run. 975 01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:24,000 White Sox beat Kansas City six nothing as the winning pitcher was Bart Johnson to five hitter. 976 01:18:24,000 --> 01:18:30,000 California scheduled against Milwaukee, Detroit, Baltimore four times because of the dark power toward him. 977 01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:34,000 And Minnesota against Oakland. 978 01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:42,000 All right, Rob, go left the left fielder, right hand batter is up against Ron Herbal.

There are a lot of Mets fans here in this ballpark. 1066 01:25:25,000 --> 01:25:30,000 Singleton is not being held on at first base. Johnson's playing about three steps behind him. 1067 01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:32,000 And the fifth is outside, ball one. 1068 01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:36,000 This is George fighting a fastball outside to count one ball and two strikes. 1069 01:25:36,000 --> 01:25:41,000 George this year making his 33rd start. He has one-nine and lost 15. 1070 01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:45,000 Against the Mets he has one-two and lost one this year. 1071 01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:50,000 This time he has defeated the Mets by 11 times. 1072 01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:54,000 The Mets have gotten him five. 1073 01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:57,000 George, better enough to enter the one-two fifth. 1074 01:25:57,000 --> 01:25:59,000 It is lying in the center of a pitch. 1075 01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:02,000 I go for extra bases. It goes on through. 1076 01:26:02,000 --> 01:26:05,000 Singleton on his way to third. He is being held up at third. 1077 01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:08,000 And A.G. goes in with a double. 1078 01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:12,000 So a line shot by the center fielder just to shade toward right center. 1079 01:26:12,000 --> 01:26:15,000 That ball hit so hard that Heiso had no chance to get to it. 1080 01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:21,000 And the Mets now have the tying run coming to the plate and the batter is Bud Harrelson. 1081 01:26:21,000 --> 01:26:25,000 Going out on the top of the sixth inning and the conference at the mound. 1082 01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:34,000 Frank Lucchese, the manager of the Philadelphia Phillies, is about to talk to his pitcher. 1083 01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:40,000 Bill Wilson is now getting out the throw in the bullpen and I believe Grant Jackson is going to join him. 1084 01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:45,000 It is Grant Jackson, a left-hander, along with Bill Wilson, a right-hander. 1085 01:26:45,000 --> 01:26:49,000 Mets trying to get back in this ball game. 1086 01:26:49,000 --> 01:26:53,000 A.G. during his best yesterday, two for five, a two big run better than the one in the ball game. 1087 01:26:53,000 --> 01:27:00,000 Here tonight he's two for three. 1088 01:27:00,000 --> 01:27:06,000 Harrelson out deep to left his first time up and he's right out to right his next time up. 1089 01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:10,000 Four for two and short into the windup. Here's the pitch. 1090 01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:18,000 It's way inside a ball. Ball knocked down by McArthur. 1091 01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:20,000 Phillies with their infield back. 1092 01:27:20,000 --> 01:27:24,000 That's short and second in at first and third. 1093 01:27:24,000 --> 01:27:26,000 They lead four to one. 1094 01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:30,000 And that's better for the Mets, Cleon Jones. 1095 01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:34,000 Now short and odd just goes into the windup and the one-oh pitch. 1096 01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:36,000 It is over for a called strike. 1097 01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:45,000 Pitch over the inside corner, a fastball, and they count one ball and one strike. 1098 01:27:45,000 --> 01:27:50,000 But it's oh for three in this series. Last night he had three walks. 1099 01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:58,000 He has set a new Met record for walks in the season. 1100 01:27:58,000 --> 01:28:13,000 Total of ninety. One-one pitch, rounded foul, and the count goes up to one and two. 1101 01:28:13,000 --> 01:28:17,000 Here's short, turns his back to the plate, looks out toward center field. 1102 01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:23,000 Check this spike now. Does a little ground work in front of the pitching rubber. 1103 01:28:23,000 --> 01:28:32,000 And then looks in for the sign. One ball, two strikes. 1104 01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:36,000 Now he steps back off the rubber and Bud Harrelson steps out of the batting block. 1105 01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:40,000 Time call. 1106 01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:43,000 Now Harrelson back in and short. Ready to go. 1107 01:28:43,000 --> 01:28:45,000 Here's the windup and pitch. 1108 01:28:45,000 --> 01:28:58,000 It is inside. Bud takes a close pitch, two balls, two strikes. 1109 01:28:58,000 --> 01:29:06,000 Short has had seven complete games this year with his nine wins. 1110 01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:09,000 Again he takes the sign, goes into the windup. Here's the pitch. 1111 01:29:09,000 --> 01:29:14,000 It is taken inside and oh and the count's full now. Three and two to Bud Harrelson. 1112 01:29:14,000 --> 01:29:19,000 Bud represents the potential tying run in this ballgame. No one out. 1113 01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:30,000 Top of the sixth inning. Leon Jones on deck. 1114 01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:33,000 Runners not too far off. Here's the pitch. 1115 01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:36,000 It has hit hard down in the hole. In through to left field. 1116 01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:43,000 Singleton starts in third. He had held up to see whether or not the ball would be caught by the shortstop Larry Boyd. 1117 01:29:43,000 --> 01:29:48,000 He goes to third. So the Mets get a run. A run batted in for Bud Harrelson. His forty-second. 1118 01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:59,000 The tying run is at first. No one out. And with runners at first and third, Leon Jones comes up. 1119 01:29:59,000 --> 01:30:09,000 Leon is 0-2 in the ballgame. 1120 01:30:09,000 --> 01:30:14,000 Jones has flat out the right field. Rotted out to third. He has 0-4-5 in this series. 1121 01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:22,000 Average dropping down to 2-83. 1122 01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:38,000 And time call as Chris Short goes out to pick up some paper out in front of the mound. 1123 01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:50,000 Now Short ready to go. The first pitch to Jones. Taken high and away of fastball missing ball one. 1124 01:30:50,000 --> 01:30:58,000 One ball, no strikes. Jones being played straight away by the outfield. More or less grouped the state toward the alley. 1125 01:30:58,000 --> 01:31:07,000 Both in left and right. Now the pitch. High and outside again. Two balls, no strikes. 1126 01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:14,000 Bill Wilson, the right-hander, throwing in the bullpen for the Phillies along with left-hander Grant Jackson. 1127 01:31:14,000 --> 01:31:21,000 The on deck batter for the Mets, John Glenn-Denham. 1128 01:31:21,000 --> 01:31:39,000 AGI at third. Charlton at first. And the 2-0 pitch. It is flung on and hit foul in the air out of play on the first base side. Another count, two balls, one strike. 1129 01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:45,000 Ron Stone, an outfielder going down to the bullpen to probably warm up. He has a great arm. 1130 01:31:45,000 --> 01:31:52,000 Montreal got a run on the top of the second. Fourth. They now lead 2-1 after three and a half innings. Montreal to Pittsburgh one. 1131 01:31:52,000 --> 01:31:58,000 The pitch to Jones. Breaking ball high, ball three. 1132 01:31:58,000 --> 01:32:07,000 Jones is counting his way. Three balls, one strike. 1133 01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:17,000 Charlton with a short lead at first base. Short with the pitch. Charlton holds the pitch inside. Ball four and that loads up the bases. 1134 01:32:17,000 --> 01:32:24,000 That puts the time on its second with no one out. And it brings up the Mets RBI man, John Glenn-Denham. 1135 01:32:24,000 --> 01:32:37,000 And now Frank Lucasi is going out to the mound and we will have a pitching change. 1136 01:32:37,000 --> 01:32:45,000 Possible chance that an outfielder will go in the ball game as the pitcher for the Philadelphia Phillies will be due up in the bottom of the sixth inning. 1137 01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:54,000 And that way they can put the batting order in position for the pitcher not to be involved in hitting the bottom of the sixth. 1138 01:32:54,000 --> 01:33:08,000 Now coming in is Bill Wilson. Bill Wilson who pitched in last night's ball game. Wilson last night worked two and a third innings, gave up no runs, allowed one hit, struck out two and walked one. 1139 01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:18,000 So they are making an outfield change. Coming out of the ball game Joe Liss, the left fielder, and Stone is going in. Ron Stone to play left field. 1140 01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:25,000 And they will switch batting positions with Stone batting in the pitching position, the ninth position in the batting order. 1141 01:33:25,000 --> 01:33:39,000 And going out of court the pitcher will bat in Joe Liss' spot which was number five.

It'll be a double play. 1168 01:35:56,000 --> 01:36:02,000 The ball over to Taylor covering at second base, and the throw to first base, a double play. 1169 01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:07,000 On the play, the Mets get a run, as AG scores from third base. 1170 01:36:07,000 --> 01:36:11,000 That was a one-hop drive, right at Larry Bore, the shortstop. 1171 01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:17,000 He took it, and from there on, it was a routine play. They had all the time in the world to make the double play. 1172 01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:20,000 And the Phillies pick up two quick outs. 1173 01:36:20,000 --> 01:36:24,000 So, Wilson on one pitch, picking up two outs. 1174 01:36:24,000 --> 01:36:28,000 And now coming up for the Mets is Ron Cibota. They trail by one. 1175 01:36:28,000 --> 01:36:31,000 Ron represents the time run. He is not going to bat. 1176 01:36:31,000 --> 01:36:36,000 He has been called back, and we're going to have Dave Marshall bat for Ron Cibota. 1177 01:36:36,000 --> 01:36:41,000 That ball was in. 1178 01:36:41,000 --> 01:36:45,000 Right on the nose, but right at Larry Bore, the shortstop. 1179 01:36:45,000 --> 01:36:49,000 No run batted in on the double play. 1180 01:36:49,000 --> 01:36:52,000 Dave Marshall coming up. 1181 01:36:52,000 --> 01:36:57,000 Dave, hitting.257, has six home runs, 29 runs batted in. 1182 01:36:57,000 --> 01:37:00,000 That run will be charged to Chris Short. 1183 01:37:00,000 --> 01:37:03,000 But at this point, he can win the ballgame. 1184 01:37:03,000 --> 01:37:08,000 He worked five innings, and the Phillies lead four to three with no one on. 1185 01:37:08,000 --> 01:37:18,000 Pardon me, on the play, Harrelton went to third, so he cannot win the ballgame if Harrelton scores. 1186 01:37:18,000 --> 01:37:25,000 Dave Marshall, left hand batter, stepping in the batter's box. 1187 01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:28,000 Bill Wilson. 1188 01:37:28,000 --> 01:37:33,000 Checking the signs.

He's single to start up the rally. 1231 01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:32,000 And of course, he is a quick hitter, and that would give the advantage if they do change pitches later on in the ball game. 1232 01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:35,000 Singleton can bat either way. 1233 01:41:35,000 --> 01:41:38,000 Oscar Gamble, a left hand batter. 1234 01:41:38,000 --> 01:41:45,000 In last night's ball game, Gamble had two hits in four trips to the plate, one of them in triples. 1235 01:41:45,000 --> 01:41:55,000 Music 1236 01:41:55,000 --> 01:42:00,000 Gamble hitting 263, has one home run, 18 runs batted in. 1237 01:42:00,000 --> 01:42:03,000 And the first pitch by Gentry, low and away, ball one. 1238 01:42:03,000 --> 01:42:08,000 Music 1239 01:42:08,000 --> 01:42:15,000 Phillies, ball runs, eight hits.

He struck out six, walked one. 1374 01:53:43,000 --> 01:53:46,000 The walk got him out of the ballgame. 1375 01:53:46,000 --> 01:53:48,000 Brought Bill Wilson in. 1376 01:53:48,000 --> 01:53:50,000 A 3-1 delivery. 1377 01:53:50,000 --> 01:53:55,000 Eyeball four and the Mets have the time run on as Garrett walks. 1378 01:53:55,000 --> 01:54:02,000 Wayne Garrett picking up his 73rd walk. 1379 01:54:02,000 --> 01:54:10,000 The Mets have the time run at first with Gary Grote coming up. 1380 01:54:10,000 --> 01:54:12,000 In the on deck circle, Ken Boswell. 1381 01:54:12,000 --> 01:54:17,000 Now Weiss was scheduled up. 1382 01:54:17,000 --> 01:54:30,000 Grote has doubled and scored a run in two times up, batting at 2-52. 1383 01:54:30,000 --> 01:54:42,000 Mets with the time run at first going out in the top of the seventh inning. 1384 01:54:42,000 --> 01:54:46,000 Wilson taking plenty of time before looking in for the signs.

Grote squares, Buntz the ball, foul, strike one. 1387 01:54:54,000 --> 01:55:00,000 Mets playing for a tie here in the seventh inning. 1388 01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:03,000 By the way, when Tommy Agee doubled in the sixth inning, 1389 01:55:03,000 --> 01:55:08,000 it was his 175th extra base hit. 1390 01:55:08,000 --> 01:55:11,000 No, base hit, which is a new Mets record. 1391 01:55:11,000 --> 01:55:18,000 Mets come in behind and extra base it with 59. 1392 01:55:18,000 --> 01:55:21,000 Pitch back, bun it out toward the front of home plate. 1393 01:55:21,000 --> 01:55:25,000 It is a fair ball and the catcher, McHarver comes out, 1394 01:55:25,000 --> 01:55:27,000 feels the ball, started to go to second. 1395 01:55:27,000 --> 01:55:31,000 And then he decided to go to first when he saw he had no chance at second base. 1396 01:55:31,000 --> 01:55:34,000 Actually what happened, McHarver charged out and that ball was in back of him. 1397 01:55:34,000 --> 01:55:37,000 He had to reach back to get it. 1398 01:55:37,000 --> 01:55:39,000 And then lost the chance for a play at second. 1399 01:55:39,000 --> 01:55:42,000 So on the sacrifice, 2-4. 1400 01:55:42,000 --> 01:55:58,000 It puts the time run at second and brings up Ken Boswell batting for Al White. 1401 01:55:58,000 --> 01:56:05,000 Grant Jackson starting to flow on the bullpen for the Phillies, the left-handers. 1402

pitch back to Boswell. 1407 01:56:32,000 --> 01:56:35,000 He's behind in the center field, it should be playable. 1408 01:56:35,000 --> 01:56:38,000 There is Larry Heisel, he makes the catch. 1409 01:56:38,000 --> 01:56:43,000 Garrett halfway, goes back to second, and the Phillies pick up their second out. 1410 01:56:43,000 --> 01:56:46,000 That'll bring up Ken Singleton who is batting in the pitcher's position. 1411 01:56:46,000 --> 01:56:50,000 He was a pinch hitter in the ball game for Ron Herbal. 1412 01:56:50,000 --> 01:56:54,000 He started a 2-1 rally when he singled the right field his first time up. 1413 01:56:54,000 --> 01:56:57,000 Pittsburgh did not score on the bottom of the fifth inning, 1414 01:56:57,000 --> 01:57:03,000 but he's going to the sixth at Montreal free, Pittsburgh one. 1415 01:57:03,000 --> 01:57:06,000 A new pitch in the ball game for Pittsburgh. 1416 01:57:06,000 --> 01:57:12,000 Brunette is out, and John Lamb is in. 1417 01:57:12,000 -->

game, and his game had an earned run average of 4.98. 1426 01:58:08,000 --> 01:58:11,000 Almost five runs for nine innings. 1427 01:58:11,000 --> 01:58:14,000 The 2-1 pitch, flung on and fouled off. 1428 01:58:14,000 --> 01:58:27,000 For the catch, two balls, two strikes. 1429 01:58:27,000 --> 01:58:31,000 Two balls, two strikes, two men out. 1430 01:58:31,000 --> 01:58:37,000 Garrett at second.

01:58:49,000 Wilson, on his way to the dugout, thought he had Singleton struck out. 1434 01:58:49,000 --> 01:58:53,000 Down now it goes to three and two. 1435 01:58:53,000 --> 01:58:58,000 Wilson goes

the ball game, his second double, and the Phillies have a runner second with Nolan out, 1478 02:02:15,000 --> 02:02:20,000 with Don Money coming up. 1479 02:02:20,000 --> 02:02:24,000 Cardinal, in the bottom of the second inning, scored off Bill Hansen. 1480 02:02:24,000 --> 02:02:26,000 The Cardinals lead Chicago 1-0 after two. 1481 02:02:26,000 --> 02:02:31,000 They won the first game 2-1 behind Bob Gibson's two hitters. 1482 02:02:31,000 --> 02:02:38,000 Don Money has a base hit, and a run batted in, and two official times up. 1483 02:02:38,000 --> 02:02:40,000 Brandon looking for a sacrifice. 1484 02:02:40,000 --> 02:02:41,000 Here's the pitch. 1485 02:02:41,000 --> 02:02:52,000 It is taken high, and Bunny positioned ball one. 1486 02:02:52,000 --> 02:02:55,000 Wayne Garrett is about even with the bag at third. 1487 02:02:55,000 --> 02:02:58,000 Now he moves up just a little bit. 1488 02:02:58,000 --> 02:03:00,000 Taylor has good speed on the second. 1489 02:03:00,000 --> 02:03:08,000 The pitch back, swung on and missed, and they got one ball and one strike. 1490 02:03:08,000 --> 02:03:09,000 Phillies lead 4-3. 1491 02:03:09,000 --> 02:03:11,000 They have 10 base hits in the game. 1492 02:03:11,000 --> 02:03:12,000 Two off Gentry. 1493 02:03:12,000 --> 02:03:16,000 Both hits off Gentry have been doubled. 1494 02:03:16,000 --> 02:03:21,000 Picked off Tadecki to starter, two off Ryan. 1495 02:03:21,000 --> 02:03:23,000 Now at 1-1, Gentry back to the plate. 1496 02:03:23,000 --> 02:03:28,000 Pitch is fouled back, and the count goes to one ball and two strikes. 1497 02:03:28,000 --> 02:03:35,000 Dick Selma starts to warm up on the both end for the Phillies. 1498 02:03:35,000 --> 02:03:38,000 Selma was the losing pitcher in last night's ball game. 1499 02:03:38,000 --> 02:03:44,000 Also lost $500 for his remarks about the umpires, signed by the National League president, 1500 02:03:44,000 --> 02:03:48,000 Charles Finney. 1501 02:03:48,000 --> 02:03:55,000 Now at 1-2, the pitch by Gentry, again fouled off into the stands over the first base area. 1502 02:03:55,000 --> 02:04:01,000 The count stays at 1-2. 1503 02:04:01,000 --> 02:04:08,000 At the end of 5, it's Montreal 3, Pittsburgh 1. 1504 02:04:08,000 --> 02:04:11,000 Carl Morton pitching for the X-Bow. 1505 02:04:11,000 --> 02:04:16,000 John Lamb now in the ball game for the Pirates. 1506 02:04:16,000 --> 02:04:18,000 Now Gentry again ready for the 1-2 pitch. 1507 02:04:18,000 --> 02:04:19,000 It is inside. 1508 02:04:19,000 --> 02:04:21,000 Money has to jump away. 1509 02:04:21,000 --> 02:04:23,000 It is actually hitting. 1510 02:04:23,000 --> 02:04:26,000 Money is nicked by the pitch, and he is on. 1511 02:04:26,000 --> 02:04:28,000 So Gentry now in trouble. 1512 02:04:28,000 --> 02:04:32,000 Runners at first and second, no one out, and Darren Johnson coming up. 1513 02:04:32,000 --> 02:04:35,000 Johnson has walked in single twice. 1514 02:04:35,000 --> 02:04:37,000 People who care don't litter. 1515 02:04:37,000 --> 02:04:39,000 The people of line go there. 1516 02:04:39,000 --> 02:04:45,000 They ask you to keep America beautiful. 1517 02:04:45,000 --> 02:04:50,000 Gary Gentry losing the batter with the count at one ball and two strikes by hitting down money. 1518 02:04:50,000 --> 02:04:52,000 Now the Mets are looking for sacrifice. 1519 02:04:52,000 --> 02:04:56,000 Darren Johnson, big power hitter, here's the pitch. 1520 02:04:56,000 --> 02:05:00,000 He squares around, takes high a ball, and Gentry behind the net. 1521 02:05:00,000 --> 02:05:02,000 It's a double-nil. 1522 02:05:02,000 --> 02:05:04,000 It's a double-nil. 1523 02:05:04,000 --> 02:05:07,000 It's a double-nil. 1524 02:05:07,000 --> 02:05:09,000 It's a double-nil. 1525 02:05:09,000 --> 02:05:11,000 It's a double-nil. 1526 02:05:11,000 --> 02:05:14,000 It's a double-nil. 1527 02:05:14,000 --> 02:05:16,000 It's a double-nil. 1528 02:05:16,000 --> 02:05:23,220 Aaron Johnson big power hitter. Here's the pitch he squares around takes high a ball and Gentry behind one ball no strike 1529 02:05:24,080 --> 02:05:26,760 That was off cutting the warm-up in the bullpen for the men 1530 02:05:29,800 --> 02:05:32,200 Now coming out to the mound is Gil Hodges 1531 02:05:33,320 --> 02:05:36,600 You know Hodges has been out to the mound many times here tonight 1532 02:05:37,560 --> 02:05:40,560 He took the deck the out of the ballgame in the fifth 1533 02:05:41,120 --> 02:05:43,160 That's why I love all game in the fifth 1534 02:05:43,160 --> 02:05:47,400 And now he's out to talk to Gary Gentry 1535 02:05:53,440 --> 02:05:59,880 In this ballgame the Phillies got the early lead when Tony Taylor single to center field a hard smash the center went through 1536 02:05:59,880 --> 02:06:01,760 The legs and found the 18 went 1537 02:06:01,760 --> 02:06:05,160 For a single and a two-base error for Taylor to end up a third 1538 02:06:05,280 --> 02:06:10,920 Now money bounced one down the third with Joe Foy and the rest of the infield in boy had a play at the plate 1539 02:06:10,920 --> 02:06:16,080 But bobble the ball and lost a chance to throw out money at home, but he did pick up the out at first base 1540 02:06:17,080 --> 02:06:19,080 That's batted up for the run in the third 1541 02:06:19,720 --> 02:06:24,440 Phillies took a lead in the fourth on a two-run home run got another run in the fifth and that's got two in the 1542 02:06:24,440 --> 02:06:31,260 Six now players in and Johnson takes the pitch inside ball to again Johnson in running position 1543 02:06:32,760 --> 02:06:37,880 So again Gentry missing and they can't two balls no strikes 1544 02:06:37,880 --> 02:06:39,880 That's one there ballgame last night 1545 02:06:41,880 --> 02:06:48,880 The run is at first and second and no one out walk what else and he was trying to buy the 2-0 pitch and it's in first 1546 02:06:48,880 --> 02:06:50,880 all strike 1547 02:06:50,880 --> 02:06:54,880 And Johnson again in bunny position taking the pitch and the cat now two and one 1548 02:06:54,880 --> 02:07:01,880 Johnson with 87 RBI so leading RBI men in the Phillies now a punches one out over first but it's gonna be foul 1549 02:07:01,880 --> 02:07:10,880 Aaron Johnson with Don Clamdenin charging took a bunning stance and then as the ball got to the plate he funded it but funded it hard 1550 02:07:10,880 --> 02:07:17,880 It was far enough that it was out of the play and he was able to get it out of the play and he was able to get it out of the play 1551 02:07:17,880 --> 02:07:24,880 It was far enough that it was out of the dirt part of the infield and it landed foul by about two feet 1552 02:07:24,880 --> 02:07:33,880 It would have been devastating Montreal did not go in the top of the sixth they lead three to one as the Pirates bat in the bottom of the sixth inning 1553 02:07:33,880 --> 02:07:42,880 So the cat two balls and two strikes from then and drops back not figuring it by Garrett also back at third 1554 02:07:42,880 --> 02:07:47,880 Going out the Mets have their infield back for what they hope to be a double play 1555 02:07:47,880 --> 02:07:52,880 Here's the pitch it is a check swing ground ball foul on the first base side 1556 02:07:52,880 --> 02:08:00,880 The cat stays at two and two the last time up there and Johnson batting against Nolan Ryan had a half swing in line to single the right 1557 02:08:00,880 --> 02:08:16,880 First time up he single the center field on a three to pitch first official time up he had walked up to the ball two strikes the Phillies leading four to three 1558 02:08:16,880 --> 02:08:23,880 They have runners at first and second with no one out in the bottom of the seventh now gently ready and the pitch 1559 02:08:23,880 --> 02:08:35,880 It is a curve ball just outside so gently again three and two this is the fourth time he has been three and two and one complete ending the pitching 1560 02:08:35,880 --> 02:08:39,880 And in pitching to six batters 1561 02:08:39,880 --> 02:08:49,880 Runners at first and second Taylor fast at second base money pretty good at first here's the pitch the runners going the pitch is popped up 1562 02:08:49,880 --> 02:08:55,880 So infield fly the batter automatically out of Boswell for the second base 1563 02:08:55,880 --> 02:09:10,880 And Taylor gets back to second money back to first good pitch by Gary Gentry a big pitch 1564 02:09:10,880 --> 02:09:16,880 That brings up Willie Montaner batting for the pitcher Bill Wilson 1565 02:09:16,880 --> 02:09:32,880 Willie Montaner last night's ball game he was a ten hitter and blew up the single the center field it was part of a big four run in for the Philadelphia Phillies 1566 02:09:32,880 --> 02:09:48,880 Montaner batting at three hundred he has that pick that's been 20 times up the Cubs do not go on the top of the third the Cardinals lead one up in after two and a half 1567 02:09:48,880 --> 02:09:55,880 Cardinals won the first game two to one behind Bob Gibson two hitters 1568 02:09:55,880 --> 02:10:13,880 Willie Montaner has been hitting for the pitcher Bill Wilson that means Dick Thelma will be the next pitcher to ballgame for the Phillies 1569 02:10:13,880 --> 02:10:25,880 Runners at first and second Montaner's a left hand batter he has good feet 1570 02:10:25,880 --> 02:10:33,880 Gentry backs off the pitching rubber and here comes manager Gil Hodges out we could have Doug McGraw in this ballgame 1571 02:10:33,880 --> 02:10:44,880 Doug McGraw warming up in the bullpen and Gil Hodges hesitating before going over the base by now goes on over and goes out to the mound 1572 02:10:44,880 --> 02:10:47,880 Gentry stands with his arms folded looking out toward the bullpen 1573 02:10:47,880 --> 02:10:54,880 Art Chomsky is going out toward right field 1574 02:10:54,880 --> 02:11:02,880 Art Chomsky will be going in the ballgame as Doug McGraw comes in so that means they'll be switching batting positions 1575 02:11:02,880 --> 02:11:13,880 Dan Pugh will bat in the fifth batting position and Singleton going out who was in the ninth batting position from an earlier switch 1576 02:11:13,880 --> 02:11:22,880 Will see McGraw batting his position and McGraw coming in has a record of three and six this will be his 52nd appearance 1577 02:11:22,880 --> 02:11:32,880 Last time out was three and a third innings against Pittsburgh he was a losing pitcher as the Pirates won in the 10th inning by a score of nine to five 1578 02:11:32,880 --> 02:11:36,880 Now the Philadelphia Phillies are making the change and to tell you about that here's the Alkynes 1579 02:11:36,880 --> 02:11:42,880 Alright, Linton Elton with William Montanez up in a left hand batter and Doug McGraw coming in the ballgame a left hand

HUTTO Jim hitting 187 for the year with three home runs and 12 runs batted in 1581 02:11:55,880 --> 02:12:01,880 In the ballgame Art Chomsky has taken over in right field 1582 02:12:01,880 --> 02:12:06,880 So the match has Chomsky in right, A.G. in center, Jones in left 1583 02:12:06,880 --> 02:12:11,880 Jones just now completing throwing a little bit to keep his arm loose 1584 02:12:11,880 --> 02:12:17,880 Phillies have runners at first and second one man out bottom of the seventh inning and they lead four to three 1585 02:12:17,880 --> 02:12:22,880 So right here a big big job for McGraw 1586 02:12:22,880 --> 02:12:28,880 Doug has a two ball that's effective against right hand batters 1587 02:12:28,880 --> 02:12:35,880 And he checked out the signs from Jerry Goody he gets that and the pitch 1588 02:12:35,880 --> 02:12:46,880 It is in for a ball strike just before the pitch Harrelson had moved over to second to move Taylor back to second base and then he broke back to his shortstop position 1589 02:12:46,880 --> 02:12:57,880 Taylor a fast man at second money on at first Taylor had doubled money with it by a pitch to get on with the count at one ball and two strikes on him 1590 02:12:57,880 --> 02:13:02,880 Now at one strike McGraw double check to second here's the pitch 1591 02:13:02,880 --> 02:13:08,880 A two ball hit down the short a play at second for Harrelson to throw there in time on the first to double play 1592 02:13:08,880 --> 02:13:20,880 So McGraw doing a great job getting out of the ground and do a double play a fine play on the play by Harrelson as he charged the ball field of the ball right on the edge of the infield grass 1593 02:13:20,880 --> 02:13:25,880 Threw back to second base to Boswell and Boswell throw on the first base was in time 1594 02:13:25,880 --> 02:13:37,880 So it's a six four three double play and any no one one hit no errors and one man left on and the score at the end of seven the studies for the New York Mets three 1595 02:13:37,880 --> 02:13:39,880 Now here's 1596 02:13:39,880 --> 02:13:56,880 My name's Shafiq Lafayette Radio.

The Mets behind by one and now for the play by play and this exciting ballgame. 1601 02:14:49,880 --> 02:14:58,880 Thank you very much, Ralph Cannon. Hello everybody. Dick Selma is on the mound now making his seventieth appearance. He was the losing pitcher last night when he worked the ninth inning. 1602 02:14:58,880 --> 02:15:07,880 He's been credited with twenty two saves this year for the Philadelphia Phillies. He is a former New York Mets. 1603 02:15:07,880 --> 02:15:19,880 And Tommy Agee, top of the batting order, is up the lead off for the New York Mets. Also my last night, Agee singled a right to drive in the tying and winning run. 1604 02:15:19,880 --> 02:15:25,880 Here's the first pitch and it's hung on and popped up the first base and right there is Deron Johnson to make the catch. 1605 02:15:25,880 --> 02:15:33,880 Last night, Agee swivel one through off the handle to right field. That time he was jammed again and popped it up the first. 1606 02:15:33,880 --> 02:15:39,880 The Pittsburgh Pirates did not score in the sixth. Montreal is coming up in the seventh inning leading the Pirates three to one. 1607 02:15:39,880 --> 02:15:49,880 Now, Brad Harrelson is coming up for the Mets. He is a switchative batting left. He had a single to drive in the run on the top of the sixth. 1608 02:15:49,880 --> 02:15:56,880 Harrelson is one for three here tonight. Dick Selma hard going right hander and the pitch is high for a ball. Third base went down. 1609 02:15:56,880 --> 02:16:06,880 Money stays on the grass thinking that Harrelson might set a money's way on. The Phillies are leading by a score of four to three here. 1610 02:16:06,880 --> 02:16:12,880 Here's a pitch that is fired and first house strike. It's one-one. 1611 02:16:12,880 --> 02:16:19,880 Leon Jones is waiting on deck. This is a one-one delivery. 1612 02:16:19,880 --> 02:16:26,880 The ball's gone out and missed. It's one and two. Selma has been fairly effective in late inning relief this year for the Phillies. 1613 02:16:26,880 --> 02:16:45,880 He has a blazing fastball. Here's a one-two delivery. Breaking pitch. It misses low and the count goes two and two now to Brad Harrelson. 1614 02:16:45,880 --> 02:16:53,880 Two-two delivery. Third ball high and a shot full at three-two. Deron Johnson playing first base over near the line guarding it. 1615 02:16:53,880 --> 02:17:00,880 Trying to protect against the extra base with possibilities. This will be a big payoff that's coming here and it's on the way. 1616 02:17:00,880 --> 02:17:07,880 Swung on and it's fouled on the left of your line. Ron Stone gives shape but it's in the feed tonight of play. 1617 02:17:07,880 --> 02:17:20,880 The count stays full at three and two. The Mets are looking for a base on it. This is a good way to get the tying run on board here in the top half of the eighth inning. 1618 02:17:20,880 --> 02:17:28,880 Selma then forwards from the way to get the sign. Here's the three-two delivery. He walked in. High and tight. 1619 02:17:28,880 --> 02:17:36,880 So now Harrelson goes to first. The tying run is on. Leap hard for station identification. This is the New York Mets baseball network. 1620 02:17:36,880 --> 02:17:43,880 This is WOKO in Albany, New York. Our temperature is 72 degrees. Cahoe savings bank time is now two till ten. 1621 02:17:43,880 --> 02:17:47,880 Time to get a safe deposit box for your valuables at Cahoe's savings bank. 1622 02:17:47,880 --> 02:17:52,880 This is Lindsay Nelson with Ralph Tanner and Bob Murphy at County McHenry in Philadelphia. 1623 02:17:52,880 --> 02:17:59,880 The Phillies are leading the Mets by a score of four to three. The Mets are batting in the eighth with a runner at first and one man out. 1624 02:17:59,880 --> 02:18:07,880 Leon Jones steps into the batter's box. Selma fits in there for a called strike. Jones is 0 for 2 on the walk. 1625 02:18:07,880 --> 02:18:14,880 He has slide to right, done it out there in the first and one. He was unhappy with the call on the last pitch by plate umpire Dick Selma. 1626 02:18:14,880 --> 02:18:25,880 Dick Selma last night after the ballgame leveled all sorts of charges at the umpires.

Here's a sort of first out in time. 1628 02:18:31,880 --> 02:18:37,880 Selma went into the umpire's room before the ballgame and made a personal apology. 1629 02:18:37,880 --> 02:18:43,880 Strike one, delivery to Jones.

Jones is out, two away. 1640 02:19:52,880 --> 02:19:55,880 Now Don Glenn Dement, he's gone 0 for 3 here tonight. 1641 02:19:55,880 --> 02:20:01,880 Down it out short to first, fly it to center and down it into a double play. 1642 02:20:01,880 --> 02:20:04,880 Glenn Dement was up for the bases, loaded nobody out in the sixth inning. 1643 02:20:04,880 --> 02:20:08,880 Billy Wilson was brought in to pitch to him and he hit into a double play. 1644 02:20:08,880 --> 02:20:11,880 Wilson picked two innings here tonight, allowed no runs, no hits. 1645 02:20:11,880 --> 02:20:19,880 Wilson picked two in the third last night, allowed no runs and one hit. 1646 02:20:19,880 --> 02:20:24,880 So big Don Glenn Dement that handles that bat loosely at the plate, gets almost fixed. 1647 02:20:24,880 --> 02:20:29,880 It is high for a ball. 1648 02:20:29,880 --> 02:20:32,880 Archie Chemsky is on deck. 1649 02:20:32,880 --> 02:20:40,880 But Allison's the runner at first. 1650 02:20:40,880 --> 02:20:42,880 Almost set. 1651 02:20:42,880 --> 02:20:46,880 Breaking pitch, it's his deep and left, way back, could be, going, going. 1652 02:20:46,880 --> 02:20:51,880 Home run for Don Glenn Dement off the facade of the upper deck. 1653 02:20:51,880 --> 02:21:00,880 And the New York Mets go out in front by a score of 5 to 4 on Don Glenn Dement's 21st home run of the season. 1654 02:21:00,880 --> 02:21:05,880 He hit a good film of fastball off the facade of the upper deck. 1655 02:21:05,880 --> 02:21:11,880 And left field and the New York Mets are leading in the ballgame for Don Glenn Dement. 1656 02:21:11,880 --> 02:21:15,880 That is his third home run against the Phillies this year. 1657 02:21:15,880 --> 02:21:19,880 All of them hit here at County Mac Stadium. 1658 02:21:19,880 --> 02:21:23,880 His last one is against the Pirates on the 20th of September. 1659 02:21:23,880 --> 02:21:28,880 Don Glenn Dement with a two run homer on the Mets have taken the lead. 1660 02:21:28,880 --> 02:21:31,880 Arch Chemsky is up there now with two men out. 1661 02:21:31,880 --> 02:21:39,880 The pitch is high and tight, locked in back. 1662 02:21:39,880 --> 02:21:43,880 The Mets are batting in the top of the eighth and they're out in front by a score of 5 to 4. 1663 02:21:43,880 --> 02:21:48,880 Here's a pitch in for a called strike and it's 1-1 to Chemsky batting for his free time tonight. 1664 02:21:48,880 --> 02:21:54,880 He did not start the ballgame because the Phillies started the left hander, Chris Scork. 1665 02:21:54,880 --> 02:22:00,880 1-1 offering is on the way at the fastball high and tight and it goes two balls and a strike now to Chemsky. 1666 02:22:00,880 --> 02:22:04,880 Wayne Garrett is on deck. 1667 02:22:04,880 --> 02:22:11,880 Glenn Dement, he hit a shot.

Self-confidence? Hard to spend a price on them? 1686 02:23:40,880 --> 02:23:44,880 Sure, but people have been doing it for years and short-changing themselves. 1687 02:23:44,880 --> 02:23:48,880 Too many thoughts, the cost of dental care too high, and so short. 1688 02:23:48,880 --> 02:23:51,880 Results?

And it is one away. 1772 02:29:20,880 --> 02:29:23,880 Doug McGraw got him with a curve ball. 1773 02:29:23,880 --> 02:29:24,880 Larry Heisel is coming up. 1774 02:29:24,880 --> 02:29:26,880 He's in nothing but trouble for the Mets tonight. 1775 02:29:26,880 --> 02:29:29,880 He doubled in the second inning and hit a two-run homer in the fourth, 1776 02:29:29,880 --> 02:29:32,880 but was struck out by Jitri in the sixth. 1777 02:29:32,880 --> 02:29:34,880 He's at number eight in the order, 1778 02:29:34,880 --> 02:29:40,880 and is hitting 2-0-4 for the season, but he's been rough of late and rough on the Mets. 1779 02:29:40,880 --> 02:29:43,880 The graph pops a ball in his glove once it's right. 1780 02:29:43,880 --> 02:29:46,880 At third base now against the right-hand batter, 1781 02:29:46,880 --> 02:29:51,880 Gary Gently, or rather Wayne Garrett, is guarding that line. 1782 02:29:51,880 --> 02:29:57,880 The big gap between Garrett and shortstop Bud Harrelson. 1783 02:29:57,880 --> 02:30:01,880 That ball is low and it's ball one, the hyper. 1784 02:30:01,880 --> 02:30:04,880 He's followed by Ron Stone, a left-hand batting outfielder. 1785 02:30:04,880 --> 02:30:11,880 Stone bats number nine in the present batting order of the Philadelphia Phillies. 1786 02:30:11,880 --> 02:30:17,880 So Stone is on deck, swinging about loosely. 1787 02:30:17,880 --> 02:30:21,880 1-0-5, swung on, and did he hold up? 1788 02:30:21,880 --> 02:30:24,880 It was a check, playing. 1789 02:30:24,880 --> 02:30:27,880 And Clay Lumpire is asking how the first base umpire, 1790 02:30:27,880 --> 02:30:29,880 Dave Davidson, to give him an opinion. 1791 02:30:29,880 --> 02:30:31,880 He said he swung the bat. 1792 02:30:31,880 --> 02:30:33,880 So it is one-and-one. 1793 02:30:33,880 --> 02:30:37,880 Heisel started the playing check to pitch, which is down in the dirt. 1794 02:30:37,880 --> 02:30:41,880 And Clay Lumpire, DeCello, had indicated that it was a ball, 1795 02:30:41,880 --> 02:30:46,880 then asked an opinion of Dave Davidson at first, who said he took a swing. 1796 02:30:46,880 --> 02:30:48,880 It's one-and-one. 1797 02:30:48,880 --> 02:30:51,880 McGraw sets up 1-1-6. 1798 02:30:51,880 --> 02:30:53,880 That ball hit on the ground to second base. 1799 02:30:53,880 --> 02:30:56,880 Boswell is there, up with it, goes to Clint Dunham. 1800 02:30:56,880 --> 02:30:59,880 Two away, McCarver moves the third on the infield out. 1801 02:30:59,880 --> 02:31:01,880 Now Ron Stone is a left-hand batter. 1802 02:31:01,880 --> 02:31:03,880 He is being called back to the dugout. 1803 02:31:03,880 --> 02:31:07,880 We're going to get somebody else coming up for him. 1804 02:31:07,880 --> 02:31:11,880 They want to play righty-lefty here. 1805 02:31:11,880 --> 02:31:14,880 Ricky Joseph, Ricardo Joseph is coming up. 1806 02:31:14,880 --> 02:31:17,880 He is a right-hand batter, an infielder by trade. 1807 02:31:17,880 --> 02:31:21,880 Ricky Joseph is hitting.229 for the year. 1808 02:31:21,880 --> 02:31:29,880 He has three home runs and ten runs batted in. 1809 02:31:29,880 --> 02:31:37,880 Rick Joseph is batting for Ron Stone. 1810 02:31:37,880 --> 02:31:42,880 This is strictly righty-lefty. 1811 02:31:42,880 --> 02:31:46,880 So the Mets are leading by a score of 5 to 4. 1812 02:31:46,880 --> 02:31:50,880 The Phillies have the tying run at third, represented by Tim McCarver. 1813 02:31:50,880 --> 02:31:51,880 There are two men out. 1814 02:31:51,880 --> 02:31:58,880 As Rick Joseph steps into the batter's box, the Phillies are batting in the bottom of the eighth. 1815 02:31:58,880 --> 02:32:02,880 McGraw is working straight away. 1816 02:32:02,880 --> 02:32:06,880 Pass ball and it's a little low, ball one. 1817 02:32:06,880 --> 02:32:17,880 Dean Shantz continues to throw in the med bullpen. 1818 02:32:17,880 --> 02:32:20,880 McGraw reads the sign of Jerry Grote. 1819 02:32:20,880 --> 02:32:24,880 Here's the pitch just missing, a little low. 1820 02:32:24,880 --> 02:32:30,880 McGraw has gone behind 2-0 on Rick Joseph. 1821 02:32:30,880 --> 02:32:34,880 Bud Cadgad has been brought in by the Pittsburgh Pirates now in the eighth inning. 1822 02:32:34,880 --> 02:32:37,880 Montreal batting, he is a speed picker to work tonight for the Pirates. 1823 02:32:37,880 --> 02:32:39,880 Montreal is leading 3-1. 1824 02:32:39,880 --> 02:32:41,880 Here's a 2-0 pitch to Joseph. 1825 02:32:41,880 --> 02:32:44,880 Surf ball, put on and loose. 1826 02:32:44,880 --> 02:32:46,880 It is 2-1. 1827 02:32:46,880 --> 02:32:48,880 Dave Lewis did not score in the fourth. 1828 02:32:48,880 --> 02:32:53,880 The Cubs are coming up in the fifth inning with the Cardinals leading them 1-0. 1829 02:32:53,880 --> 02:32:56,880 The Cardinals won the first game tonight by a score of 2-1. 1830 02:32:56,880 --> 02:33:00,880 This will be a 2-1 pitch now to Rick Joseph. 1831 02:33:00,880 --> 02:33:01,880 It's on the way. 1832 02:33:01,880 --> 02:33:05,880 Check, swing, foul ball to the right side on the ground and out of play. 1833 02:33:05,880 --> 02:33:08,880 Down is two balls and two strikes to Joseph. 1834 02:33:08,880 --> 02:33:11,880 He backs out of the batter's box, reaches down to get a handful of dirt. 1835 02:33:11,880 --> 02:33:16,880 Passes to the side, takes a look at McGraw, moves the dirt out of the batter's box. 1836 02:33:16,880 --> 02:33:18,880 That's the edge of the plate. 1837 02:33:18,880 --> 02:33:20,880 Moves in now. 1838 02:33:20,880 --> 02:33:22,880 McGraw touches the bill of his step. 1839 02:33:22,880 --> 02:33:25,880 Takes the ball out of the glove, puts it back in, looks in for the sign now. 1840 02:33:25,880 --> 02:33:28,880 He looks at McCarver leading off the bag of dirt. 1841 02:33:28,880 --> 02:33:29,880 Here's a 2-2 pitch. 1842 02:33:29,880 --> 02:33:30,880 Pull out and loose. 1843 02:33:30,880 --> 02:33:32,880 He's stuck it out in the round of the inning. 1844 02:33:32,880 --> 02:33:36,880 McGraw runs about three steps off the mound towards the dugout. 1845 02:33:36,880 --> 02:33:43,880 And now McCarver has died at third on McGraw's second strike out of the inning. 1846 02:33:43,880 --> 02:33:48,880 No runs are hit, no errors, and one man left at the end of eighth full inning to play. 1847 02:33:48,880 --> 02:33:56,880 The score is the Mets 5 and the Phillies 4. 1848 02:33:56,880 --> 02:33:59,880 Now the Philadelphia Phillies make a change and left. 1849 02:33:59,880 --> 02:34:01,880 Scott Reed is in the play left field. 1850 02:34:01,880 --> 02:34:04,880 Wayne Garrett is up for the Mets and he fouls it off the strike one. 1851 02:34:04,880 --> 02:34:11,880 Mets are batting him the top of the ninth, facing Dick Selma. 1852 02:34:11,880 --> 02:34:18,880 Wayne Garrett's been up one time in this game and he threw a walk. 1853 02:34:18,880 --> 02:34:19,880 Again Selma into the motion. 1854 02:34:19,880 --> 02:34:21,880 The strike one delivery is on the way. 1855 02:34:21,880 --> 02:34:26,880 Breaking pitch gets high, one and one. 1856 02:34:26,880 --> 02:34:32,880 Selma is the pitcher of record for the Philadelphia Phillies. 1857 02:34:32,880 --> 02:34:33,880 There's a breaking pitch outside. 1858 02:34:33,880 --> 02:34:38,880 Douglas Raw is the pitcher of record for the New York Mets. 1859 02:34:38,880 --> 02:34:43,880 With Garrett at the plate, Jerry Grote is next in the New York Mets batting order. 1860 02:34:43,880 --> 02:34:49,880 Selma's 2-1 delivery is put on and it is lined up the middle for a base hit for Wayne Garrett. 1861 02:34:49,880 --> 02:34:51,880 Gary Heisler comes over, shoots it up, plays it back. 1862 02:34:51,880 --> 02:34:55,880 Garrett turns and holds with a single to center field. 1863 02:34:55,880 --> 02:34:56,880 Leading off here in the ninth inning. 1864 02:34:56,880 --> 02:34:59,880 That'll bring up Jerry Grote. 1865 02:34:59,880 --> 02:35:01,880 Montreal Expos did not score in the eighth inning. 1866 02:35:01,880 --> 02:35:07,880 The Pittsburgh Pats are coming up in the bottom of the eighth with Montreal leading 3-1. 1867 02:35:07,880 --> 02:35:10,880 Jerry Grote has doubled. 1868 02:35:10,880 --> 02:35:12,880 Glad to write and sacrifice. 1869 02:35:12,880 --> 02:35:15,880 He takes a look down to Eddie Yost, the sign man of spirit. 1870 02:35:15,880 --> 02:35:19,880 Now to see if he is sacrificing Wayne Garrett over the second. 1871 02:35:19,880 --> 02:35:21,880 Ken Boswell is on deck. 1872 02:35:21,880 --> 02:35:23,880 The Mets are leading 5-4. 1873 02:35:23,880 --> 02:35:28,880 The ball is funded up into the air and it is taken there momentarily by Selma. 1874 02:35:28,880 --> 02:35:31,880 Now he throws the second for the fourth play. 1875 02:35:31,880 --> 02:35:32,880 And the force is made there. 1876 02:35:32,880 --> 02:35:34,880 Garrett came back to the back at first. 1877 02:35:34,880 --> 02:35:36,880 As the ball is popped up. 1878 02:35:36,880 --> 02:35:39,880 Selma had decided that he would let it hit. 1879 02:35:39,880 --> 02:35:42,880 And see what kind of a play he could affect in a possible double play. 1880 02:35:42,880 --> 02:35:45,880 But Garrett has come back to the bag at first base. 1881 02:35:45,880 --> 02:35:48,880 And so then when Selma bobbled the ball. 1882 02:35:48,880 --> 02:35:53,880 He picked it up, had an easy play at second because both the Mets base runners were at first. 1883 02:35:53,880 --> 02:35:55,880 So it's definitely a fourth play. 1884 02:35:55,880 --> 02:35:57,880 The put out goes to the shortstop Larry Boyle. 1885 02:35:57,880 --> 02:35:58,880 He assists to Selma. 1886 02:35:58,880 --> 02:36:01,880 Grote attempting to sacrifice his funded into a fourth play. 1887 02:36:01,880 --> 02:36:03,880 He's the runner at first. 1888 02:36:03,880 --> 02:36:05,880 And Boswell is up. 1889 02:36:05,880 --> 02:36:09,880 He's got up one time and he fly deep to center field. 1890 02:36:09,880 --> 02:36:13,880 Fastball is in for a called strike. 1891 02:36:13,880 --> 02:36:14,880 Grote trying to sacrifice. 1892 02:36:14,880 --> 02:36:23,880 Popped the ball up out toward the mouth. 1893 02:36:23,880 --> 02:36:30,880 There's a swing and a foul ball off a breaking pitch on the ground back at first. 1894 02:36:30,880 --> 02:36:37,880 And then D.J. Burr came up with the ball after Darren Johnson had taken a swipe at it and come up empty. 1895 02:36:37,880 --> 02:36:39,880 Boswell bats number eight. 1896 02:36:39,880 --> 02:36:40,880 And the Mets batting order. 1897 02:36:40,880 --> 02:36:41,880 And Chugler's out at nine. 1898 02:36:41,880 --> 02:36:43,880 He's windmilling the bat out there on deck. 1899 02:36:43,880 --> 02:36:51,880 The count is two strikes to Boswell. 1900 02:36:51,880 --> 02:36:54,880 There's a swing and a foul ball back and out of play. 1901 02:36:54,880 --> 02:37:04,880 Boswell had decided when he saw that ball popped up that he would try to pull the unintentional mouth and take a shot at getting two. 1902 02:37:04,880 --> 02:37:08,880 But he scribbled it off. 1903 02:37:08,880 --> 02:37:12,880 No right because when he did get control both the Mets base runners were still at first. 1904 02:37:12,880 --> 02:37:16,880 There's a swing and a foul ball down the left field line. 1905 02:37:16,880 --> 02:37:19,880 Long run for Scott Reed and he makes the catch and fair character. 1906 02:37:19,880 --> 02:37:21,880 He's just coming across the line. 1907 02:37:21,880 --> 02:37:23,880 And Grote repeats the first base. 1908 02:37:23,880 --> 02:37:26,880 Boswell with a fly ball right down the left field line. 1909 02:37:26,880 --> 02:37:32,880 It was a long run for Scott Reed but he got there and made the catch about a foot in fair territory and came across the line. 1910 02:37:32,880 --> 02:37:35,880 Doug McGraw is coming up. 1911 02:37:35,880 --> 02:37:38,880 Doug McGraw at the place he's here is four for twelve. 1912 02:37:38,880 --> 02:37:44,880 He's had five runs out of them. 1913 02:37:44,880 --> 02:37:46,880 Grote is at first and two men are out. 1914 02:37:46,880 --> 02:37:55,880 The Mets are leading by a score of five to four. 1915 02:37:55,880 --> 02:37:57,880 Dick Belmont sets up, checks the runner. 1916 02:37:57,880 --> 02:37:58,880 Here's the pitch to McGraw. 1917 02:37:58,880 --> 02:38:05,880 He checks on it but does not swing and it's outside for a ball. 1918 02:38:05,880 --> 02:38:11,880 Now the AG is waiting on deck. 1919 02:38:11,880 --> 02:38:16,880 Aaron Johnson playing behind the runner at first. Grote leads. Clear ball hit on the ground and destroyed. 1920 02:38:16,880 --> 02:38:17,880 Big hop to Poa. 1921 02:38:17,880 --> 02:38:21,880 He goes to Tony Taylor for the fourth and second and the side is retired. 1922 02:38:21,880 --> 02:38:24,880 So the Mets got no runs ahead. 1923 02:38:24,880 --> 02:38:26,880 They hit no errors and one man left. 1924 02:38:26,880 --> 02:38:32,880 In the middle of a ninth inning the score is the Mets five and the Phillies four. 1925 02:38:32,880 --> 02:38:37,880 In the morning about six o'clock the ninth wonder of the world takes place. 1926 02:38:37,880 --> 02:38:41,880 Henry, it's time to get up. 1927 02:38:41,880 --> 02:38:45,880 Join me at six to ten on the Tom Rambler Show and the Sound of America. 1928 02:38:45,880 --> 02:38:50,880 We try to make things just a little bit more pleasant than what you're used to perhaps. 1929 02:38:50,880 --> 02:38:57,880 Join me on the Tom Rambler Show and the Sound of America WOKO. 1930 02:38:57,880 --> 02:39:04,880 Henry, it's Sunday. Go back to sleep. 1931 02:39:04,880 --> 02:39:12,880 You're listening to the Sound of America WOKO 1460 radio in Albany. 1932 02:39:12,880 --> 02:39:22,880 WOKO brings you the best in good time music,

02:39:39,880 --> 02:39:43,880 At Three Rivers Stadium in Pittsburgh the Pirates did not score in the eighth inning. 1936 02:39:43,880 --> 02:39:47,880 Montreal is coming up in the ninth leading the Pirates by a score of three to one. 1937 02:39:47,880 --> 02:39:51,880 In St. Louis in the second game the Cubs did not score in the fifth. 1938 02:39:51,880 --> 02:39:55,880 The Cardinals are coming up in the bottom of the fifth leading the Cubs by a score of one to nothing. 1939 02:39:55,880 --> 02:39:58,880 The Cardinals won the first game of the Climatic 2 to 1. 1940 02:39:58,880 --> 02:40:01,880 Right here the Mets are leading five to four. 1941 02:40:01,880 --> 02:40:06,880 Doug McGraw will be facing the top of the Philly batting order here in the bottom of the ninth inning. 1942 02:40:06,880 --> 02:40:09,880 Larry Boa the switch hitting shortstop will lead off. 1943 02:40:09,880 --> 02:40:14,880 He has fouled to the catcher, grounded out short to first, grounded out third to first and struck out. 1944 02:40:14,880 --> 02:40:18,880 He's batting right against the left-hander, Doug McGraw. 1945 02:40:18,880 --> 02:40:21,880 Wayne Garrett the third person moves under the cut out of the grass at third. 1946 02:40:21,880 --> 02:40:25,880 The remainder of the Mets alignment stays the same as it was. 1947 02:40:25,880 --> 02:40:27,880 No defensive changes here in the ninth inning. 1948 02:40:27,880 --> 02:40:29,880 Jamsky is still in right field. 1949 02:40:34,880 --> 02:40:37,880 Doug McGraw, end of the motion. 1950 02:40:37,880 --> 02:40:40,880 Breaking vision there for a called strike to Larry Boa. 1951 02:40:40,880 --> 02:40:52,880 He's followed in the batting order by tough Tony Taylor. 1952 02:40:52,880 --> 02:40:56,880 McGraw again takes a look around, end of the motion, strike one delivery. 1953 02:40:56,880 --> 02:40:59,880 Fastball a little low at one and one. 1954 02:40:59,880 --> 02:41:02,880 McGraw came in in the seventh. 1955 02:41:02,880 --> 02:41:04,880 Got a huddle to get into a double play. 1956 02:41:04,880 --> 02:41:06,880 Two-thirds of an inning credit to John Bayer. 1957 02:41:06,880 --> 02:41:11,880 Then he worked the eighth inning, so this is the third inning in which he has worked. 1958 02:41:11,880 --> 02:41:13,880 Fastball fouled off, it's one and two. 1959 02:41:13,880 --> 02:41:27,880 Ball came back into the stand. 1960 02:41:27,880 --> 02:41:31,880 McGraw standing just behind the rubber. 1961 02:41:31,880 --> 02:41:34,880 Larry Boa back end swinging the bat loosely. 1962 02:41:34,880 --> 02:41:36,880 Now McGraw is up and taking the side. 1963 02:41:36,880 --> 02:41:39,880 He's into the motion, the one-two pitch. 1964 02:41:39,880 --> 02:41:40,880 Breaking pitch, going on and missed. 1965 02:41:40,880 --> 02:41:43,880 He's stuck it out. 1966 02:41:43,880 --> 02:41:45,880 McGraw went to the scroogey to get the right hand out of it. 1967 02:41:45,880 --> 02:41:50,880 The third strikeout for Doug McGraw. 1968 02:41:50,880 --> 02:41:57,880 And that has at least temporarily ended the hitters streak of Larry Boa. 1969 02:41:57,880 --> 02:42:03,880 He brought an 18-game hitters streak into this game, but he has gone 0-5 here tonight. 1970 02:42:03,880 --> 02:42:08,880 He has done the math and the Mets haven't been able to deal with a single. 1971 02:42:08,880 --> 02:42:12,880 And then went to third when A.G. committed two-base error on his line drive in the first inning. 1972 02:42:12,880 --> 02:42:14,880 He doubled in the fifth and he doubled in the seventh. 1973 02:42:14,880 --> 02:42:19,880 He's a right-hand batter, a major league veteran. 1974 02:42:19,880 --> 02:42:21,880 McGraw now looks to get the side. 1975 02:42:21,880 --> 02:42:22,880 Here's the pick. 1976 02:42:22,880 --> 02:42:24,880 And it's time for a ball to Tony Taylor. 1977 02:42:24,880 --> 02:42:29,880 He's followed in the batting order by Don Money. 1978 02:42:29,880 --> 02:42:31,880 The Mets lead 5-4. 1979 02:42:31,880 --> 02:42:35,880 The fielders are batting in the bottom of the ninth inning. 1980 02:42:35,880 --> 02:42:39,880 As a fastball down the pipe, a ball strikes. 1981 02:42:39,880 --> 02:42:40,880 Got a little mustered on it. 1982 02:42:40,880 --> 02:42:46,880 It's one and one. 1983 02:42:46,880 --> 02:42:49,880 Dirty sends out the sign. 1984 02:42:49,880 --> 02:42:50,880 One-one

02:43:07,880 It's a two-one delivery on the way. 1989 02:43:07,880 --> 02:43:09,880 Fastball fouled off. 1990 02:43:09,880 --> 02:43:14,880 It's two and two now to Tony Taylor. 1991 02:43:14,880 --> 02:43:18,880 Doug McGraw, the fifth pitcher to work in this game tonight for the New York Mets, 1992 02:43:18,880 --> 02:43:21,880 is the pitcher of record for the Mets at this point. 1993 02:43:21,880 --> 02:43:31,880 Mike Selma is the pitcher of record at this point for the Philadelphia Phillies. 1994 02:43:31,880 --> 02:43:33,880 Here's a two-two delivery. 1995 02:43:33,880 --> 02:43:34,880 It's Taylor. 1996 02:43:34,880 --> 02:43:35,880 Breaking pitch. 1997 02:43:35,880 --> 02:43:40,880 He had him way out in front as he took a lot off of that one. 1998 02:43:40,880 --> 02:43:42,880 And Tony Taylor was set for the fastball. 1999 02:43:42,880 --> 02:43:44,880 And he is out swinging. 2000 02:43:44,880 --> 02:43:46,880 Two strikeouts for McGraw. 2001 02:43:46,880 --> 02:43:47,880 Four in the ball game. 2002 02:43:47,880 --> 02:43:48,880 Two in this inning. 2003 02:43:48,880 --> 02:43:52,880 So it's two men out of nobody on Don Moniz. 2004 02:43:52,880 --> 02:43:54,880 Don Moniz on it out third to first. 2005 02:43:54,880 --> 02:43:55,880 Had a base hit. 2006 02:43:55,880 --> 02:43:56,880 Had a sacrifice. 2007 02:43:56,880 --> 02:43:58,880 Slide it down and a run and it was hit by a face ball. 2008 02:43:58,880 --> 02:44:01,880 He's a right-hand batter. 2009 02:44:01,880 --> 02:44:03,880 Hitting three-oh-two for the year. 2010 02:44:03,880 --> 02:44:05,880 John Fitz swung on and fouled back. 2011 02:44:05,880 --> 02:44:06,880 It's out of play. 2012 02:44:06,880 --> 02:44:09,880 Dirty comes back halfway, but it's well back. 2013 02:44:09,880 --> 02:44:13,880 Strike one to Don Moniz. 2014 02:44:13,880 --> 02:44:27,880 The Met Five, the Phillies four. 2015 02:44:27,880 --> 02:44:32,880 McGraw again takes 30-five. 2016 02:44:32,880 -->

02:45:20,880 in the Eastern Division of the National League and to keep the hopes of the New York Mets 2034 02:45:20,880 --> 02:45:23,880 aflame in this minute race in the ninth inning. 2035 02:45:23,880 --> 02:45:26,880 No runs, no hits, no errors, none left. 2036 02:45:26,880 --> 02:45:29,880 We'll be back in a moment with a final summary and totals. 2037 02:45:29,880 --> 02:45:33,880 Right now the final score of this four-game is the New York Mets five and the Philadelphia 2038 02:45:33,880 --> 02:45:36,880 Phillies four. 2039 02:45:36,880 --> 02:45:40,880 The New York Mets have come from behind here tonight to pull one out and a big one to tell 2040 02:45:40,880 --> 02:45:41,880 you how they did it. 2041 02:45:41,880 --> 02:45:43,880 Here is Ralph Keiner. 2042 02:45:43,880 --> 02:45:47,880 Paul, it was the clutch hitting of Don Glendon who has been the hitting star for the Mets 2043 02:45:47,880 --> 02:45:48,880 all year long. 2044 02:45:48,880 --> 02:45:51,880 He came up and with a two-run home run off Dick Selma put the Mets in front and then 2045 02:45:51,880 --> 02:45:56,880 Hugg McGraw came through with a tremendous relief performance to save the ballgame. 2046 02:45:56,880 --> 02:46:01,880 For Don Glendon it was his 13th game and it was his 21st home of the year. 2047 02:46:01,880 --> 02:46:02,880 Came in the eighth inning. 2048 02:46:02,880 --> 02:46:05,880 He now has 92 runs batted in. 2049 02:46:05,880 --> 02:46:11,880 McGraw came in the ballgame with runners at second and third and he got Jim Huddle a pinch 2050 02:46:11,880 --> 02:46:14,880 hitter to hit into a double play to end the inning in the seventh inning. 2051 02:46:14,880 --> 02:46:19,880 He then in the eighth inning gave a leadoff double but then struck out two of the next 2052 02:46:19,880 --> 02:46:20,880 three batters in the ninth inning. 2053 02:46:20,880 --> 02:46:23,880 He struck out three in a row to pick up his win. 2054 02:46:23,880 --> 02:46:25,880 Doug McGraw, it was his fourth win of the year. 2055 02:46:25,880 --> 02:46:26,880 He has lost six. 2056 02:46:26,880 --> 02:46:30,880 Dick Selma the losing pitcher losing two in a row to the Mets here in relief. 2057 02:46:30,880 --> 02:46:32,880 Now with a record of seven and nine. 2058 02:46:32,880 --> 02:46:37,880 Dick Selma left the Mets and Mets have defeated him five times in the last two years. 2059 02:46:37,880 --> 02:46:40,880 So temporarily the Mets are within two and a half games of Pittsburgh. 2060 02:46:40,880 --> 02:46:42,880 The Pirates are batting in the bottom of the ninth inning. 2061 02:46:42,880 --> 02:46:45,880 If they lose their ballgame they're trading three to one. 2062 02:46:45,880 --> 02:46:49,880 The Mets would be two games back. 2063 02:46:49,880 --> 02:46:53,880 In the ballgame the Philadelphia Phillies took the lead in the first inning when they 2064 02:46:53,880 --> 02:46:56,880 got an unearned run. 2065 02:46:56,880 --> 02:46:59,880 The New York Mets came back to tie up the ballgame in the third inning on a double by 2066 02:46:59,880 --> 02:47:02,880 Jerry Grote and a two outfaces by Tommy Agee. 2067 02:47:02,880 --> 02:47:07,880 But then on a two run home run by Larry Heitel the Phillies took the lead by a score of three 2068 02:47:07,880 --> 02:47:08,880 to one. 2069 02:47:08,880 --> 02:47:13,880 They added another run in the fifth inning on a double by Tony Taylor and a single by 2070 02:47:13,880 --> 02:47:18,880 Darren Johnson and a sacrifice fly in between and it was a four to one ballgame. 2071 02:47:18,880 --> 02:47:25,880 The Mets then got back in the ballgame as they picked up two runs in the sixth inning. 2072 02:47:25,880 --> 02:47:27,880 Ten singles and let off with a single to right field. 2073 02:47:27,880 --> 02:47:30,880 Chris George was still in the ballgame as a starting pitcher. 2074 02:47:30,880 --> 02:47:34,880 Tommy Agee doubled the center field to put Singleton over at third base. 2075 02:47:34,880 --> 02:47:38,880 The runners at second and third, Bud Harrelson single on a three to pitch to left field to 2076 02:47:38,880 --> 02:47:40,880 drive in Singleton from third base. 2077 02:47:40,880 --> 02:47:45,880 Leon Jones worked out a walk in a three one pitch and with the bases over they brought 2078 02:47:45,880 --> 02:47:49,880 up Don Glendon and Don hit into a double play in the first pitch with a run scoring and 2079 02:47:49,880 --> 02:47:53,880 then Bill Wilson who came in the ballgame struck out Dave Martzow to end the inning. 2080 02:47:53,880 --> 02:47:58,880 But the Mets had pulled up with three runs to a four three position. 2081 02:47:58,880 --> 02:48:04,880 They then came on to get two runs in the eighth inning on the two run home run by Don Glendon 2082 02:48:04,880 --> 02:48:08,880 and in the eighth inning with Dick Stelman the ballgame Tommy Agee popped up the first 2083 02:48:08,880 --> 02:48:09,880 base. 2084 02:48:09,880 --> 02:48:13,880 Bud Harrelson who has a tremendous walk rate to walk on the three two pitch to put the 2085 02:48:13,880 --> 02:48:14,880 time right at first. 2086 02:48:14,880 --> 02:48:17,880 Leon Jones was struck out on the curve ball for the second out of the inning. 2087 02:48:17,880 --> 02:48:21,880 Then Don Glendon and lined a home run into left field and the Mets went out in front 2088 02:48:21,880 --> 02:48:24,880 by a score of five to four and that's the way the ballgame ended.
