2
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:11,000
Good evening everybody from Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium in Washington, D.C.

3
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:16,600
It's time again for Yankee baseball and tonight's game between the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/new-york-yankees/1971/overview/>New York Yankees</a> and the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a>.

4
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:21,200
The Senators have given the Yankees more trouble this year than any other team in the American League.

5
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:28,000
The Yankees have won but five while losing 11 to Washington, including last night's 4-2 defeat

6
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:32,000
to the combined pitching of Bill Gagalewski and Joe Grisenda,

7
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:38,000
with Grisenda getting the win when Gagalewski had to leave the ballgame raising a blister on his throwing hand.

8
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,800
And Stan Bonson was the starter and loser in the ballgame for the Yankees.

9
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:47,000
Tonight Mel Stottlemeyer will try to slow down the Senators

10
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,600
and he'll be opposed by left-hander Jim Schellenbach, the only team in the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/AL/1971/overview/>American League</a>.

11
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,400
Schellenbach has been able to beat this year is the Yankees.

12
00:00:54,400 --> 00:01:01,200
He has won three, he has lost ten on the season against the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/new-york-yankees/1971/overview/>New York Yankees</a>, he has won three and he has lost two.

13
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:05,800
And it's amazing how one pitcher can sometimes get a grip on a ball club.

14
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,600
The Yankees have been able though to defeat Schellenbach.

15
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:12,600
In fact, they put it to him the last time that he pitched against him.

16
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,800
It's a good evening for baseball here in Washington.

17
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,000
The crowd looks like it may be just about the same as it was last night.

18
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,600
And there's a big drive on here right now in the Washington Daily News

19
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:28,200
to fill this ballpark for the final game the Senators will play here against the Yankees tomorrow night.

20
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:34,200
And that human cry has been taken up by several of the radio stations and a couple of TV stations.

21
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,800
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bill-white/>Bill White</a>, it's going to be interesting to see just what does happen tomorrow night.

22
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:42,800
The whole theme of the thing is to get the ballpark as full as possible.

23
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,200
And then at the end of the seventh inning, or at the middle of the seventh inning I guess,

24
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,800
get up for the seventh inning stretch and the fans are going to be asked to boo

25
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,000
owner <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bob-short/>Bob Short</a> so loud that he'll hear it wherever he is.

26
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,600
I'll tell you one thing, Short is not going to be here in this ballpark.

27
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,600
I don't know where he's going to be. He might be down in Arlington, Texas.

28
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,400
But he isn't going to be here. But they do want to show,

29
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,600
the Washington people want to show that they can support Mesa Lake baseball.

30
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,000
And they're being asked to come out tomorrow.

31
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,200
I personally don't think too many of them will be out here.

32
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,000
I don't think it's going to be that big a crowd.

33
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,200
They're probably a larger crowd than we had at first start.

34
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,000
Well, the umpires have come out for the home plate meeting with the managers.

35
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,000
And <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bill-white/>Bill White</a> will be back with the starting lineups in just one minute.

36
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:37,200
One day in 1840, a three-masted schooner sailed into New York.

37
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,800
On board was a young man from Wetzlar, Germany.

38
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,400
He'd set sail with just a dollar in his pocket,

39
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,600
and an old family recipe for a new kind of beer.

40
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,000
His name was Maximilian Schaeffer.

41
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,000
And the beer he introduced to America was Schaeffer Lager beer.

42
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:59,000
It was aged or lagered for many weeks, to give it a unique lightness and quality.

43
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,000
Today, Schaeffer is still unique, with flavor that never fades,

44
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,400
first frosty glass to last.

45
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:14,400
It's the one beer to have when you're having more than one.

46
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:45,400
It's the one beer to have when you're having more than one.

47
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:17,400
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave

48
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:37,400
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave

49
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:38,400
Well, looking at the lineup,

50
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,400
Torres Clark will lead off with the Yankees and play second base.

51
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/rusty-torres/>Rusty Torres</a> will play right field and he'll back second.

52
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,400
Bobby Mercer returns in his fight for <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/tony-oliva/>Tony Oliva</a>.

53
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:52,400
For the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/AL/1971/overview/>American League</a> batting title, Bobby will bat third and play center field.

54
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,400
Royal White in left field will bat fourth.

55
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/felipe-alou/>Felipe Alou</a> will be at first base and he'll hit fifth.

56
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,400

00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,400
And the shortstop and batting eighth, <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/gene-michael/>Gene Michael</a> in pitching,

59
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,400
and batting ninth, Mel Stottlemeyer.

60
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:10,400
I'll be back with the Washington Senator lineup after this.

61
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,400
Let's pause now. This is the New York Yankee baseball network.

62
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,400
This is your station identification.

63
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,400
This is your guy, Hi Agents.

64
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,400
Join me for your kind of music weekdays, 3 to 7,

65
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:31,400
here on the fresh air sound of Radio 81, WGY Schenectady.

66
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,400
The <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a> will line up this way behind Jim Schellenbach.

67
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,400
Dell answer will lead off and play center field.

68
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,400
Toby Harrell will play third base and he'll bat second.

69
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,400
Larry Bittner will play first base.

70
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:45,400
He'll bat third, batting fourth and playing left field, <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a>.

71
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,400
Batting fifth, the youngster Jeff Burrows, he'll play right field.

72
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,400
He'll say he will catch and he'll bat sixth.

73
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jim-mason/>Jim Mason</a>, the shortstop, will bat seventh.

74
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/tom-ragland/>Tom Ragland</a> will be at second base, batting eighth and batting ninth

75
00:05:55,400 --> 00:06:00,400
and pitching the left-hander, Jim Schellenbach.

76
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:05,400
As Forrest Clark steps in, stepping in here behind the mic, Frank Besser.

77
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:11,400
Okay, thank you very much.

78
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:16,400
Forrest Clark steps in, he'll be batting right-handed against Schellenbach.

79
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,400
Schellenbach big left-hander into the lineup, the first pitch of the ball game.

80
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:25,400
Curbball is over for a called strike and this game is underway.

81
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,400
Bill Faye, whom we have not seen before, behind the plate tonight for the Senators.

82
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,400
Clark is batting 2-48.

83
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:37,400
He swings and he misses. No balls, two strikes.

84
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:43,400
Bobby Mercer has his work cut out for him as he will try to nip Oliva for the batting title.

85
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,400
The 0-2 pitch. Curbball is over, strike three is called.

86
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:51,400
Clark on three pitches is out on strikes.

87
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,400
Played on by tonight is Lou DiMuro at first base, Jim Odom.

88
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:59,400
At second base, Jake O'Donnell and at third base, Jim Honachin.

89
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,400
Here comes <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/rusty-torres/>Rusty Torres</a>.

90
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,400
Torres has switched it or batting right against Schellenbach.

91
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,400
Torres had 2-4 last night.

92
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,400
Batting 4-12.

93
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,400
He's done 7-17. His first pitch on the ground is short.

94
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,400
Flag down by Mason.

95
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:21,400
Over to first base where Larry Bickner takes the throw and there are two down.

96
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:27,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jim-mason/>Jim Mason</a> throws out <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/rusty-torres/>Rusty Torres</a> and here comes Bobby.

97
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:32,400
Mercer is hitting 3-31.

98
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,400
He went 1-4 last night.

99
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:45,400
Prior to last night, what was it Bill Cain? 7-12 he needed so that leaves 6-8 he must have.

100
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,400
4-4.

101
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,400
Bobby has had one 4-hit game this year. He went 4-5 once.

102
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:58,400
He bluffs a bunt and takes a strike.

103
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:03,400
There have been 18 times this year when Bobby Mercer has had as many as 3 base hits in a ball game.

104
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:07,400
Once 4. He hits this one on the ground left side, deep short.

105
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,400
Up with it, Mason again. Bobby running hard. He's out and a close play at first base.

106
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,400
And the side is retired. They just got him by half a step down at first.

107
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,400
As Mercer was digging for all he's worth.

108
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,400
The Yankees go down 1-2-3 nothing across.

109
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:27,400
And at the end of the top half of the first inning the score, the Yankees nothing and the Senators coming to bat.

110
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:34,400
Here's good news for folks who use rental trucks or trailers to move their household furnishings or for miscellaneous hauling jobs.

111
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:40,400
U-Haul dealers now honor Bank Americard and Master Charge Cards for local and one-way rentals.

112
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:47,400
No cash deposit is required and you can include furniture pads, tow bars and other moving aids too.

113
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,400
You can also use cargo insurance included on trucks and trailers.

114
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:56,400
And if you're planning a move soon, stop in at U-Haul for a free copy of the U-Haul Moving Guide.

115
00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:01,400
It shows how to plan your move, how to pack and how you can save money.

116
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,400
Remember with U-Haul, you can move now and pay later.

117
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:10,400
Just use your Bank Americard or Master Charge Card at your nearest U-Haul dealers.

00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:19,400
Ripples Golf, 640 Pauling Avenue, Troy, O'Brien's Atlantic, 112 <a href=https://retroseasons.com/stadiums/broad-street/>Broad Street</a>, Waterford, McCabe Shell Service, 670 Husick Road, Troy

119
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,400
or consult the yellow pages for the U-Haul dealer nearest you.

120
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:51,400
Music

121
00:09:51,400 --> 00:10:00,400
He gives with one more game left before hanging up that number 41 after 10 years in the Yankee organization.

122
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:06,400
He'll go down, he'll be number one I guess in Mississippi at least for his baseball club.

123
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:10,400
Jake I think is pretty much looking forward to that <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-messer/>Frank Messer</a>.

124
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:14,400
Yes he is and Jake says there's a lot of work involved.

125
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:18,400
He is behind a little bit right now in his football program. He'll get there late.

126
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:27,400
It could take him two or three weeks of work. He's 18 maybe 20 hours a day just to catch up with his paperwork in there.

127
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:32,400
But he said once he gets organized things will settle down.

128
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:39,400
And of course he won't be in actual coaching until next spring when it's time to start working out the baseball team.

129
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,400
They do work out in the fall down there but they don't play a fall schedule.

130
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:48,400
He said they would work out without him this fall because he has to devote all his time to the football recruiting when he gets there.

131
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:52,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/del-unser/>Del Unser</a> leads off playing center field left hand batter.

132
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:57,400
Mel Stottlemeyer winds and deals and Unser takes inside ball one.

133
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,400
Unser is hitting 256.

134
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,400
He went one for four last night.

135
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,400
Good speed, good arm.

136
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,400
He runs up to Budd and takes a strike.

137
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:13,400
Count evens up at one and one.

138
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:17,400
I saw this kid Unser in batting practice practice that little stroke he had last night.

139
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:21,400
Some way he can hold the bat that he can pop the ball over the pitcher's head.

140
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:26,400
Now of course that's in batting practice and with Stottlemeyer throwing a sinker it might be a little harder to do.

141
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:30,400
He did pop one like that last night for his base hit.

142
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:35,400
Swings away and pops this one up foul down the third base line. Hanson is calling for it.

143
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,400
Hanson is there and he makes the catch.

144
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:44,400
Hanson better than half way down to the plate when he pulled that one in and very well over in foul territory.

145
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:50,400
Unser is out one down and it brings up the third baseman, Clubby Hara.

146
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:59,400
Hara is hitting two for four in this series and on the year 224 he's been up a hundred and

147
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:04,400
he's been in 125 games. He's been up 375 times with 84 hits.

148
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:11,400
He's a right hand batter. Stottlemeyer winds and deals and he is just a bit high I guess.

149
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:18,400
Looked like he had the plate.

150
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:23,400
Lou Demuro the plate umpire holds his hand up signifying time is out.

151
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,400
Nots back in as Hara is set.

152
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:30,400
Stottlemeyer's next pitch swung on and fouled back into the upper deck.

153
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:36,400
One ball one strike. Speaking of the upper deck I noticed <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a> was asked about the baseball

154
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:40,400
operation here and he said well if I owned the ball Clubby said I think I can make it work.

155
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,400
He said I'd close the upper deck and save those cleaning costs.

156
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,400
Put a fence up in center field and raise the fences in right and left.

157
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,400
Pitch is lined out of the right center field and Torres has to play it on a bounce.

158
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:56,400
It's in there for the base set and Hara's on.

159
00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:00,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a> said that he would also shorten the distance between the plate and the stands bring the

160
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:05,400
people closer to the ball game and concentrate on trying to get 20,000 people a game to sit in here

161
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,400
where they could see it.

162
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,400
That's food for thought.

163
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:17,400
Well you know you look out there people out there in those center field upper deck I'm told pay $2 for

164
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:23,400
those seats and they are well away from the action in this ball game.

165
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:27,400
It's a big ballpark and the fans are not that close to the action.

166
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,400
They don't want to sit right on top of it.

167
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:33,400
I'm sure they'd like to be a little closer than they are here.

168
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,400
Hara at first base and Larry Bittner left hand hitter steps in.

169
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,400
Throw to first base Hara gets back.

170
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,400
Fully failed to play first tonight for the Yankees.

171
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,400
Larry Bittner is batting 257.

172
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:47,400
He has 43 base hits.

173
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:52,400
15 runs batted in the runner goes the pitch is taken the throw to second base is high and he's safe.

174
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:58,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> forces Michael into the air to take the throw and it's a stolen base.

175
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:04,400
By Toby Ha and the pitch was taken for a strike by the left hand swinging Larry Bittner.

176
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:12,400
So the Senators go to a running game early here and they have a runner in scoring position now with one away.

177
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:16,400
Stolen base number 10 for Hara.

178
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:31,400
One strike pitch swung on and missed by Bittner.

179
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,400
The outfield is spread out on Bittner deep and right, deep and center.

180
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,400
Quite straight away and left.

181
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:43,400
Infield shaves him just a step or two to the first base side.

182
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,400
Stretch by Stottlemyre checks the runner over the right shoulder and delivers.

183
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,400
Pitch is popped up foul outside of third.

184
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:49,400
Hanson in pursuit.

185
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,400
He will not have a play.

186
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:58,400
Ball comes down in the seats.

187
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:03,400
No balls two strikes on Larry Bittner.

188
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:09,400
Did <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a> say anything about getting some major league ballplayers when he mentioned his other ideas?

189
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:14,400
He said there were some major league ballplayers he didn't think should go to Texas including himself.

190
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,400
He'd like to stay here.

191
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,400
He doesn't want to stay here but he wants to go to another ball.

192
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:19,400
A one-two pitch.

193
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,400
Hit in the air out of the left field.

194
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:22,400
Coming hard for it is White.

195
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:23,400
Still coming, still coming.

196
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:29,400
On the dead run can he get a one-hand catch just in fair territory and he runs it all the way into third base.

197
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:36,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> had to come a long way for it and got it just before he crossed the foul line and a one-hand grab.

198
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a> said he'd like to be treated.

199
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,400
He doesn't want to go to Texas.

200
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:41,400
He wants to play ball.

201
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,400
He said he thinks he has another two or three years.

202
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:52,400
Anyway, he wants to play with an established club and he would prefer to play with a club closer to his home in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

203
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,400
But his feeling on this is he said let him take a young ball club down to Texas.

204
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,400
Let it grow up with a new territory.

205
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,400
He said don't take us.

206
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,400
He said don't take me.

207
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,400
Take some of the younger players down there.

208
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,400
Let me go somewhere else.

209
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,400
He's up here right now.

210
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,400
Big man hitting 277.

211
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:12,400
Lines the first pitch to left.

212
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> makes a diving trap of it.

213
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:16,400
The run scores.

214
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,400
White came up rolling, holding the ball up.

215
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:25,400
But he does not argue the call by second base umpire Jake O'Donnell who raced out there to take a look.

216
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,400
White's all for it.

217
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,400
Trapped it on a very short hop.

218
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,400
It's a single for Howard, a run about it in.

219
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:37,400
It's a single for <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a>, his 81st RBI.

220
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,400
He has hit 25 home runs.

221
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,400
He says he doesn't think he's had that bad a year.

222
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,400
He said of course I've had better years.

223
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:47,400
But he said a lot of people have had worse.

224
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:52,400
Senators break on top, one to nothing as Howard drives in the run from second base with a line single to left.

225
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,400
And here is Jeff Burrows, the right fielder.

226
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,400
He's a right hand batter.

227
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,400
Takes a pitch low, ball one.

228
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:00,400
Burrows is hitting 237.

229
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:04,400
Five home runs, 25 RBI's.

230
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:10,400
He's been in only 57 ball games for the Senators.

231
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,400
Alou holding on <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a> at first base.

232
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:14,400
Big man takes it shortly.

233
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:19,400
Now Alou jumps back and the pitch is swung on and missed for a strike, one and one.

234
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:24,400
You know they're going to like Hondo down there in Texas.

235
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:25,400
Frank Lester.

236
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,400
He's Texas sized, I'll say that.

237
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,400
Yeah, he's called Hondo, isn't that a Texas name?

238
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:34,400
So.

239
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,400
Next pitch here, check swing and it's over for a strike.

240
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,400
Breaking ball from Stoudelmeyer, one and two.

241
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:43,400
Senators leading one to nothing.

242
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,400
The running game cashed in for the run.

243
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:54,400
Hara single stole second and scored on <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a>'s line single to left that was just off the glove of <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a>.

244
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,400
This pitch is bounced foul down the third base line.

245
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:03,400
In between <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/felipe-alou/>Felipe Alou</a> and <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/nellie-fox/>Nellie Fox</a>, both of them bent down, neither one came up with it.

246
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:16,400
Now Nellie's saying that was your ball Felipe and Alou's saying, oh no, that was your ball.

247
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:20,400
A ball and two strikes, two outs, Howard at first base.

248
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:26,400
Stoudelmeyer comes set at the belt, kicks and deals, pitches in there for a called strike three and the side is out.

249
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:30,400
But the Senators take the lead with one run on two base hits.

250
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,400
There were no Yankees and a man left at the end of one.

251
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:37,400
The score, Washington one and New York nothing.

252
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,400

But do it now. Once in a season like this isn't going to last forever.

265
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,400
Well, <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> will lead off with the Yankees here in the top of the second.

266
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:49,400
Washington has jumped off again to a lead, early lead, which they have done it seems against the Yankees

267
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,400
every game that played them <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-messer/>Frank Messer</a>.

268
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,400
It seems like they have it on the scoreboard off the early bill.

269
00:19:55,400 --> 00:20:02,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> established a new <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/AL/1971/overview/>American League</a> record when he hit his 17th sacrifice fly in this ballpark last night.

270
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,400
He's up there right handed against the Southpaw Schellenbach in the first pitch to Roy.

271
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,400
Curve his foul back, strike one.

272
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:12,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> hitting 290, 18 home runs, 83 runs batted in.

273
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,400
He is second to Bobby Mercer in most offensive categories.

274
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,400
Leads him in one and that's in triples.

275
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,400
White has seven, Bobby has six.

276
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,400
Next pitch to him, another breaking pitch, hit in the air to shallow center field.

277
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:30,400
Coming hard is Unser and the ball falls in for the base hit.

278
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:35,400
Unser couldn't get it through to first base and he is safe in a close play.

279
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:41,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> made a big turnaround first base and he was almost thrown out by Jeff Burrows, the right fielder.

280
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:46,400
It was Burrows who picked the ball up after it fell in between Unser coming in

281
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,400
and Ragland going back.

282
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,400
Ragland gave way to Unser and Unser just couldn't get to it.

283
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,400
It's a base hit for <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a>.

284
00:20:55,400 --> 00:21:00,400
Burrows grabbed that ball and fired it into first base where Bittner got it.

285
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,400
Swept for the tag and White slid back just under it.

286
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,400
Fully pay a little now.

287
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,400
Over one last night as a pinch hitter.

288
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:12,400
Drills one in the air foul down the right side and it is just into the seats in the first roll.

289
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:19,400
Fully pay a little, got off to a slow start this year with the Yankees but now he's hitting 283.

290
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:21,400
131 base hits.

291
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:28,400
Eight home runs, 67 runs putted in.

292
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:34,400
Fully pay his wife Beverly and the two youngsters will be leaving for their home in Atlanta.

293
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,400
He bounces this one to third and it is over the head of Toby Howe.

294
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:42,400
Out in the left field for a base hit <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> digging for third, the throw goes into second base

295
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,400
and the Yankees have runners on the corners.

296
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,400
Fully pay a little, chopped that ball to the left side.

297
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,400
He bounced it over Howe's head.

298
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:55,400
He shuts up <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/tommy-mason/>Tommy Mason</a> going in behind Howe.

299
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:56,400
Couldn't get it either.

300
00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:07,400
The ball bounce through into left field and <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> running hard goes into third.

301
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,400
Runners at the corners, Ron Hanson now.

302
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,400
Ronnie went over four last night.

303
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,400
Veteran playing for the injured Jerry Kenny.

304
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,400
Swings on the first pitch, pops it up on the right side of the infield.

305
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:19,400
This will not get the run in.

306
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,400
Ragland the second baseman makes the catch.

307
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,400
Back about three steps in the right field grass.

308
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,400
Hanson is out and there's one away.

309
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:36,400
At seven, the catcher for 41, <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a>.

310
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:43,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> now.

311
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:49,400
Jake could be playing his last game for the Yankees tonight.

312
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:55,400
Gibbs is hitting 218 and the first pitch from the left hander is swung on and missed.

313
00:22:55,400 --> 00:23:00,400
Breaking ball, sharp breaking pitch from Schellendag.

314
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:04,400
What the heck of a farewell present for <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> in here against the left hander Schellendag.

315
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,400
You know I saw him usual with his last at bat against Maloney.

316
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,400
Maloney struck him out a couple of times.

317
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,400
This pitch is lined back up the middle and it is smothered by Ragland.

318
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:14,400
He flips to <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jim-mason/>Jim Mason</a>.

319
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,400
They've got a fourth at second.

320
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,400
White scores and the Yankees tie it up.

321
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:26,400
But a fine play by Johnny Ragland as he dove to his right, smothered the ball, he came up hurt.

322
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:35,400
The trainer running out there, he came up with the ball and flipped it to <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jim-mason/>Jim Mason</a> at second base to force <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/felipe-alou/>Felipe Alou</a>.

323
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> dashed across the plate and the Yankees have tied it up.

324
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,400
Ragland appears to be okay.

325
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:45,400
He came down very hard it seems on his right shoulder.

326
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,400
They're checking him over and he appears to be okay.

327
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,400
Gibbs is cutted with a run batted in.

328
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bill-white/>Bill White</a> that was quite a play by Ragland.

329
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,400
That ball looked like it was going to get through on the center field.

330
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,400
He went a long way behind the bag.

331
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,400
Goal that and he grabbed it.

332
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:06,400
Although he evidently hurt himself, he had enough wits about him to get the ball to Mason and he got the force out.

333
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:11,400
That possibly saved the run because the guy would have gone on to third base.

334
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:19,400
Okay, Gibbs is on, two are down and <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/gene-michael/>Gene Michael</a> the batter hitting right handed, swings on the first pitch and drills it through it on that field base hit.

335
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:24,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> takes second and holds on as <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a> throws into third.

336
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:28,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/gene-michael/>Gene Michael</a> wasting no time jumping on the first base.

337
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:34,400
And that was base hit number 101 on the season for <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/gene-michael/>Gene Michael</a>.

338
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,400
Talking about Gibbs getting that curve ball in the farewell.

339
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:43,400
I remember unusual with Maloney. Maloney told all the reporters about how much he admired unusual.

340
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:48,400
You know as a kid and seen him in high school he throws him a spitball, strikes him up first time up.

341
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:49,400
Oh no.

342
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:57,400
First pitch to Mel Stottlemeyer hitting the end of left field coming hard, Howard lumbering after it in foul territory, can't reach it.

343
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:02,400
The shortstop <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jim-mason/>Jim Mason</a> was as close to the ball as was <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a>.

344
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:09,400
Deep down the left field line in foul territory neither one could quite reach it and Mel Stottlemeyer is still alive.

345
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:14,400
No balls and a strike. Gibbs goes back to second, Michael back to first.

346
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:18,400
Stottlemeyer with a 178 batting average shows 16 base hits.

347
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:28,400
One home run, 11 runs batted in.

348
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:33,400
Stottlemeyer after saves the Yankees best hitting pitcher.

349
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:39,400
Pitch time is low for a ball, one and one.

350
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:44,400
Stottlemeyer with 16 base hits, Dan Bonson has 12.

351
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,400
Nobody is close to Mel and runs batted in as far as the pitchers are concerned.

352
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:54,400
He gets another pitch down, low ball to it's two and one.

353
00:25:54,400 --> 00:26:02,400
Scores tied one to one, <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> at second, <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/gene-michael/>Gene Michael</a> at first.

354
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:07,400
Two balls and a strike to Mel Stottlemeyer right hand batter.

355
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,400
He swings on a bad pitch.

356
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:20,400
And the count is two and two. Stottlemeyer was fooled on that one, swung on a pitch down in the derrick. Two balls, two strikes.

357
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:27,400
The ball actually hit almost between the mound and own plate. Mel really was going to get that one.

358
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:34,400
And that is mine made up. Now the two-two. Swing and a missed strike three. Stottlemeyer strikes out and that retires the side.

359
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:39,400
The Yankees tie the ball game with one run on three hits. There were no Washington Errors and two men are left.

360
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:47,400
At the end of one and a half the score, the Yankees won and the Senators won.

361
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:54,400
You know how it is with that first cold beer. It goes down so easy and it tastes so good.

362
00:26:54,400 --> 00:27:01,400
Now wouldn't it be great if your second beer tasted just the same. Just as smooth and just as bright.

363
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:13,400
And imagine getting all that first beer pleasure every beer through. Man that would be some kind of beer. And Schaefer beer is.

364
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:27,400
Schaefer is the one beer you have when you're having more than one. Schaefer pleasure doesn't fade when your first is done.

365
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:43,400
The most rewarding flavor in this man's world for people who are having fun. Schaefer is the one beer you have when you're having more than one.

366
00:27:43,400 --> 00:28:01,400
It's a brand new ball game here in Washington and that's the slogan here. Wasn't that the one Mr. Schaefer established when he brought <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/ted-williams/>Ted Williams</a> in to manage this ball club?

367
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:10,400
It's a brand new ball game somewhere in Arlington, Texas.

368
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:15,400
Here is Fahey the catcher. First time I've ever seen this young man.

369
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:22,400
He's looking for his first major league base hit and he looks at a strike right here.

370
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:45,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bill-fahey/>Bill Fahey</a> about at 285 at Pitchfield in the Eastern League. Swings on the next pitch, bounces it slowly and foul down the first baseline. Strike two.

371
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:59,400
No balls, two strikes. Fahey's been up four times. Swings on this pitch, ground ball deep and hold it short, backhanded by Michael to throw the first base to stretch.

372
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:09,400
He's out. <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/gene-michael/>Gene Michael</a> throws him out to a stretching <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/felipe-alou/>Felipe Alou</a>. One down and it brings up the shortstop <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jim-mason/>Jim Mason</a>.

373
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:23,400
Mason went one for three last night. The base hit was his first in the major leagues. Left hand batter.

374
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:38,400
They play him pretty much up the middle. Outfield is spread. The first pitch to him, taking low ball one, started to swing and checked it.

375
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:46,400
Mason has good speed, good arm. Hits this pitch on the ground, through the hole on the left side out of the left field base hit.

376
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:53,400
Hanson to his left, Michael to his right. Neither one could get to it. Ball just skipped through and that is base hit number three for the Senators.

377
00:29:53,400 --> 00:30:02,400
Mason is on with one gun and it brings up <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/tom-ragland/>Tom Ragland</a>, the second baseman. Ragland the right hand batter.

378
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:11,400
He went one for three last night. He's been up 16 times with three base hits.

379
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:23,400
The pitcher Jim Schellenbach will be on deck. He has not yet come out.

380
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:31,400
First pitch to Ragland. Hits slowly on the ground right side. Alou is up with his flips to Stottlemeyer in time. They got him at first base.

381
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:39,400
Quick reflexes by Stottlemeyer made that play. <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/felipe-alou/>Felipe Alou</a> came up, flipped the ball all in the same motion and almost threw it over Mel's head.

382
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:47,400
Stottlemeyer had to reach high for it and not break stride going over to first base. Pulled the ball in and they made the play.

383
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:56,400
That's a tough play both for Alou and for Stottlemeyer because he got the ball just as they were passing. Alou going in toward the mound. Stottlemeyer going toward first base.

384
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,400
That's a pretty good ball. That's a pretty good play there.

385
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:08,400
Jim Schellenbach steps in with a runner at second and a chance to help his own cause. Takes a pitch low and inside. He's a left hand batter.

386
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:13,400
That's also one play a left handed first baseman I don't think could have made.

387
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:21,400
He would have to try to go to second base because he'd have to turn completely around and then find Stottlemeyer and throw it to him. By that time the runner would have been by the bag.

388
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:27,400
Especially a runner as fast as Ragland. Schellenbach swings and misses for a strike and the count is one and one.

389
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:38,400
Let's see what Schellenbach has done with the bat this year. He's been up 30 times with five base hits. One run butted in.

390
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:48,400
You say the Yankees sort of keeping Schellenbach in the league. His three wins this year have all been against New York. Three and ten is his record. One one pitch.

391
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:58,400
Low and inside. Ball two. Two balls and one strike. They tell me really in all fairness to Schellenbach that he has pitched well against other clubs.

392
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:10,400
He either got into no decision, lost a tough decision. It amazes me that they don't bunt much on him.

393
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:16,400
He bounces this one off the plate. It's going to come down in foul territory. So he's still up there with a two and two count.

394
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:23,400
Why do you say that Bill? Well because he this is professional baseball and he had a you should say well you should feel sorry for somebody.

395
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:28,400
But he did have an accident in Puerto Rico and his left leg has been busted up and he can't move.

396
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:38,400
And over in the other league they butted on him quite a bit and just simply can't get to the ball.

397
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:43,400
His mobility isn't as much as it should be.

398
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:49,400
Alright Stottlemeyer will work down again. And he hits this one slowly toward the second baseman Clark.

399
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:54,400
He cannot run at all as he goes down to first base. Clark makes the play easily and he is out.

400
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:59,400
Schellenbach retired. So are the Senators. No runs, a base hit, no errors and a man left.

401
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:03,400
And at the end of two the score is New York one and Washington one.

402
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:09,400
If you're going to move why not do it yourself with U-Haul as more than six million families do every year.

403
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:15,400
Save as much as 50 percent or more of the usual cost and move at your convenience not someone else's.

404
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:19,400
U-Haul trucks and trailers are available in a full range of sizes.

405
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,400
There's one that's just right for your move.

406
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:26,400
You can rent equipment from your nearest U-Haul dealer and leave it with a dealer in your new neighborhood.

407
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,400
Even if you're going clear across the country.

408
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:35,400
U-Haul has low one-way rental rates, insurance, guaranteed tires and free road service.

409
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:38,400
And cargo insurance is included on trucks and trailers.

410
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:43,400
U-Haul has a moving guide that helps plan your move and makes the job a lot easier.

411
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,400
Stop in at your nearest U-Haul dealers.

412
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:53,400
Mendetta's Arco 109 South Main Street Gloversville, Olson's Rotary Service, 24 Lower Warren Street, Glens Falls,

413
00:33:53,400 --> 00:34:02,400
Bellevue Motors, Inc., 1902 Broadway Schenectady, or consult the yellow pages for the U-Haul dealer nearest you.

414
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:07,400
This is the New York Yankee baseball network. Let's file authorization identification.

415
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,400
This is Steve Fitz, your contact host.

416
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,400
Follow us weeknights from eight to midnight.

417
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:16,400
Hear on the fresh air sound of Radio 81, WGY Schenectady.

418
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:23,400
Checking base for Horace Clark.

419
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:26,400
The Yankees present the top of the batting order as we go to the third inning.

420
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:30,400
Horace Clark called out on strikes on three pitches in the first inning.

421
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,400
Van Torey's and Mercer's.

422
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:39,400
First pitch to Clark. Her ball is fouled back.

423
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,400
Jim Schellenbach.

424
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:53,400
Bill mentioned him being in the other league. He pitched for the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/pittsburgh-pirates/1971/overview/>Pittsburgh Pirates</a> over in the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/NL/1971/overview/>National League</a>.

425
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:55,400
He's upstairs, one-on-one.

426
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,400
You know, Frank, talking about Schellenbach, he's made an amazing recovery.

427
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:06,400
They didn't think over there he'd ever be able to play baseball again. His leg was so badly mangled.

428
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:12,400
He delivers high and away to Clark, and the count is two balls and one strike.

429
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:17,400
Automobile accident after the 67th season, I believe it was.

430
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:21,400
Who's that left-hander you pitched for the A's that had Fulio?

431
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,400
Pitch is inside, ball three.

432
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:30,400
Lou Brissy. Lou Brissy pitched with a brace on blue.

433
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:35,400
Not too bad a pitcher.

434
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,400
Three balls and a strike here to Clark.

435
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:45,400
And this pitch is lined to center. Got it up around eye-high and out over the plate, and Horace Clark drilled it.

436
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:59,400
That will be base set number four for the Yankees.

437
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,400
Just talking about Lou Brissy, I believe it was a wound, a gunshot wound.

438
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:10,400
That's what <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/phil-rizzuto/>Phil Rizzuto</a> said, and Phil said they used to bully him because Phil was fun on him. But that's baseball.

439
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:15,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/rusty-torres/>Rusty Torres</a> swings on the first pitch and fouls it back. Strike one.

440
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:21,400
Hey, that's what I'd have to do against that left-hander. I'd have to buddy.

441
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:30,400
They're not going to apologize after I got my first base, you know. So I'm sorry. You wouldn't do it, Phil? Don't apologize. All right.

442
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:37,400
No balls and a strike on Torres. Rusty granted after the shortstop his first time up. Bobby Mercer is on deck. Clark takes his lead.

443
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:43,400
The look by Schell and back in the pitch. Lined out toward left field, and Frank Hard will never get to it. It's in for the base set.

444
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:48,400
Horace Clark trots down to second base as Howard wheels and deals at the third.

445
00:36:48,400 --> 00:37:00,400
So Torres continues his hot-hitting. Four hits in five at bat Sunday off Lowlitch in Detroit. He went two for four here last night, and now he has a base hit in two trips in this ballgame.

446
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:09,400
Runners at first and second, and Bobby Mercer grounded out to the shortstop Mace at his first time up.

447
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:14,400
He's done the bulk of that hitting right-handed, hasn't he, Frank? The bulk of his hitting has been done right-handed, hasn't it?

448
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:15,400
Torres, yes.

449
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:20,400
Yeah. Switch hitter. It's like he hits for a high average right-handed. Power left-handed.

450
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:26,400
That's what Torres told me. He said he felt he was a better hitter right-handed, but he had more power left-handed.

451
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:32,400
All right, Schellenbach deals here. Mercer swings on the first one, fouls it back toward the seats down the left side, deep into the lower deck.

452
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:43,400
Frank won.

453
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:48,400
You've got to say now, Bobby Mercer needs a base hit.

454
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:54,400
He wants to catch Tony Olavi. He wants it the worst way in the world.

455
00:37:54,400 --> 00:38:03,400
Schellenbach's on one time. Here it comes. He squares to butt and takes the bat away from a high pitch, a ball, one and one.

456
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:08,400
Down at third base, Toby Hauer plays him about a step back from the infield grass and wide of the line.

457
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:14,400
The shortstop Mason and the second baseman Ragland are up the middle, hoping for the double play.

458
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:19,400
Over at first base, Bittner is deep. The runner's edge away in the pitch.

459
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:24,400
Her ball is wide right at Bittner. He throws to second safe.

460
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:32,400
Clark got back. Larry Bittner grabs Mercer's line drive. And there's one down.

461
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:36,400
Bittner didn't waste an instant. He fired that ball across to Mason, the shortstop at second.

462
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:48,400
But Morris Clark alertly got back. And there's one away. Mercer hit the ball right on the nose, but right at Bittner.

463
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:54,400
Bobby now hitting 330. <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> steps in, single at center field leading off the second.

464
00:38:54,400 --> 00:39:00,400
He hit a fly ball that fell in. And he takes a fast ball, low ball one.

465
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:04,400
White popped one that dropped in between Unser and Ragland.

466
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:13,400
He went to third base on <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/felipe-alou/>Felipe Alou</a>'s base hit and scored as <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> rounded into a fourth.

467
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:22,400
The pitch time. Strike, runner high on the inside part of the plate, one and one.

468
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:27,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a>, one of the Yankees, will be spending the offseason and winter months in the New York area.

469
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:31,400
Will soon be moving into a new home in Wayne, New Jersey.

470
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:35,400
One-one delivery. Curve ball is hit high and deep out toward left center field.

471
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:40,400
Cruising over there is Unser. He is under it. Clark is tagged at second base, makes Unser's throw.

472
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:46,400
And the throw would have been right on the money, cut off by the shortstop Mason and Clark goes back.

473
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:48,400
First baseman, <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/felipe-alou/>Felipe Alou</a>.

474
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:53,400
Two down. Runners at first and second and <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/felipe-alou/>Felipe Alou</a> the batter.

475
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:59,400
Alou chops one over the head of Harrod third in the second inning.

476
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:07,400
Schumann back once another baseball and gets it.

477
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:11,400
This is only the 15th strike for Jim Schumann back this year.

478
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:17,400
It's been used as both a starter and reliever.

479
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:26,400
Come set at the bow and deals, Alou takes low. Fastball, ball one.

480
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:34,400
Baltimore now leads Boston one to nothing at the end of five innings.

481
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:39,400
1-0 pitch. Low again, ball two.

482
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:44,400
Right here the score is tied. Yankees one and the Senators one in the top half of the third.

483
00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:54,400
Two on with two gone. Clark at second, Torrey's at first.

484
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:59,400
Schumann back, shakes off a sign given by <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bill-fahey/>Bill Fahey</a>, gets another one and delivers.

485
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:08,400
Foul back and the count will be two balls and one strike.

486
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:19,400
Scoreboard has it one and one. Played on by Lou DiMuro trying to get him to direct it.

487
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:24,400
Two and one pitch will be coming to <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/felipe-alou/>Felipe Alou</a>. Schumann back into the belt.

488
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:29,400
Kicks and deals, fastball is bounced this time to the shortstop. Mason's got it, goes to Ragland.

489
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:33,400
They have the force on Torrey's and the side is retired.

490
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:37,400
Mason to Ragland to force Torrey's and for the Yankees no runs, two hits.

491
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:39,400
There were no Senator errors and two men left.

492
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:46,400
At the end of the top half of the third inning it's still the Yankees one and the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a> one.

493
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:56,400
I close the room, close the room. You think I forget that this is a mighty fight.

494
00:41:56,400 --> 00:42:10,400
But sometimes I really, really don't give a fuck. I close the room, close the room. I close the room, close the room.

495
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:24,400
Busy man on the go, busy man high and low. Busy man on the job, busy man to show. Busy man on the way, busy man running low.

496
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:44,400
Arco Supreme, great gasoline. You may only get a little more mileage on it, but sometimes a little more is enough. Arco Supreme, great gasoline. Arco Supreme.

497
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:55,400
The <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a> have the common airbounding order coming up here in the lower half of the third.

498
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:58,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/del-unser/>Del Unser</a>, Toby Howard and Larry Bittner.

499
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:10,400
Unser popped up in foul territory to Ron Hanson his first time up and Hanson comes in on the grass to play the left hand hitter tight.

500
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:18,400
Stottlemyre Wines in his first pitch. Swung on and missed strike one.

501
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:25,400
Yankees with one run on five hits. The Senators one run on three hits.

502
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:31,400
Upfield plays him just a step to the left side. He lines this one right at Clark. He's got it.

503
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:39,400
Morris Clark moved a step to his right, pulled in the line drive and there's one away.

504
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:47,400
And now the third baseman, Toby Harris. Harris played most of the season at shortstop for the Senators.

505
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:51,400
Well now they're giving him a look at third base.

506
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:57,400
I think Frankie looks a lot more aggressive with the bat than he has at any time that I've seen him this year.

507
00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:02,400
He's getting ahead of that bat out real good for Washington.

508
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:14,400
Alright he drilled a base hit to right field in the first inning. Takes high and away ball one. Then he stole second and came in to score the run on <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a>'s base hit to left.

509
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:20,400
He hasn't, he isn't hitting much for average but he's stinging the ball now.

510
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:29,400
He takes the stride but not the swing and it's called ball two. Stottlemyre and Gibbs both wonder why.

511
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:34,400
Two balls and no strikes. One out, nobody on. Stottlemyre working again. Here's a pitch, bunted down the third baseline.

512
00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:36,400
It's going to be trouble. Stottlemyre's up with it.

513
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:41,400
It goes past the loop. The ball bounces up and the fan is after it. He can't get to it.

514
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:47,400
Now Torres in from right field grabs the ball over behind first base.

515
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:50,400
And out into second base.

516
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:57,400
Toby Harris. He'll get a base hit and an error will be charged to Stottlemyre.

517
00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:01,400
Melwood off the mound to the third baseline. Picked the ball up barehanded.

518
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:07,400
Hurryed his throw to first base and threw it past <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/felipe-alou/>Felipe Alou</a>.

519
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:12,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/rusty-torres/>Rusty Torres</a> really hustled on that play. That ball was nowhere near right field territory.

520
00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:18,400
It was just up the line from the first base dugout and Torres was the first man to get to the ball.

521
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:28,400
Eric could have gone on to third base but he really slid into second base and by the time he got up he had no chance to move over to third.

522
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:31,400
All the Senators have a runner in scoring position.

523
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:36,400
And Larry Bittner the batter flied out the left his first time up. He's a left hand hitter.

524
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:40,400
White comes in a few steps in left field.

525
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:45,400
Swings on the first pitch line, drive base hit into left center. That will get the run home.

526
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:50,400
The ball gets past Bobby Mercer all the way to the fence. Bittner running hard around second.

527
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:55,400
On his way to third, Mercer's throw in to Dean Michael the juxtap raced out to meet it.

528
00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:59,400
And Larry Bittner is in at third base.

529
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:08,400
We'll see how they score it. The ball went right through Bobby Mercer in left center field and rolled to the fence.

530
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:19,400
It will be a single, a run batted in and Bobby Mercer will be charged with a two base error in center field allowing Bittner to go to third.

531
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:30,400
The <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a> now lead 2-1 and the batter is Frank Holler.

532
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:36,400
The error charged to Mercer is his fifth of the year.

533
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:40,400
Holler drove home a run in the first inning with a single to left.

534
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:44,400
The pitch gone, swung out in line to left field. That's going to be in for the base hit.

535
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:58,400
On from third base comes Bittner and the Senators now lead 3-1. Holler has his second run batted in.

536
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:02,400
A 3-1 ball game.

537
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:15,400
Hard on at first base with one out and the batter is Jeff Burrows who was called out on strikes in the first inning.

538
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:18,400
Burrows the right hand batter.

539
00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:24,400
The Yankees will get the ball bound up.

540
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:29,400
Frank is called on the inside corner.

541
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:35,400
The Yankees need a win tonight to assure themselves that no work is on a 500 season.

542
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:40,400
They have 180 and lost 80.

543
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:44,400
That's pick the Burrows, swing and a miss on a fastball strike two.

544
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:54,400
Left hander <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/alan-foster/>Alan Foster</a> is up in the Yankee bullpen.

545
00:47:54,400 --> 00:48:01,400
You hear the fans here, a noisy group as they start kicking their feet, clapping their hands.

546
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:05,400
They want more runs across the plate for their Senators.

547
00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:13,400
0-2 pitches inside. A ball and two strikes.

548
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:20,400
Big sign out here last night proclaim the new ball club should be called the Dallas Ducks.

549
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:24,400
They're calling them the lame duck ball club right now.

550
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:31,400
1-2 pitch. It's deep to left center field. <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> is there now, makes the catch.

551
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,400
And <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a> thought there were two outs. He's going to be doubled up.

552
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:43,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/gene-michael/>Gene Michael</a> has the ball, throws over to first base and <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a> thinking there were two outs running all the way is easily doubled up at first.

553
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:50,400
That retires the side but the Senators have taken the lead. Score that play on the double play incidentally.

554
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:55,400
White to Michael to Alou or 7-6-3.

555
00:48:55,400 --> 00:49:00,400
The Senators come up with two runs on three hits. There were two Yankee errors and nobody left on base.

556
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:05,400
At the end of three the score, the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a> three runs, six hits and no errors.

557
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:11,400
The <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/new-york-yankees/1971/overview/>New York Yankees</a> one run, five hits and two errors.

558
00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:17,400
We'll take a look at other scores for you right now.

559
00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:20,400
Milwaukee and Chicago not yet underway.

560
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:27,400
This afternoon Oakland beat Kansas City 8-7 so the Oakland A's have won their 101st ball game.

561
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:34,400
The winning pitcher <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bob-locker/>Bob Locker</a>'s 7-2 working in relief. The loser <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/ted-abernathy/>Ted Abernathy</a> 4-6.

562
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:43,400
Home runs in the ball game <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bob-oliver/>Bob Oliver</a> had two for Kansas City and Paul Schall had one but Oakland won it 8-7.

563
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:49,400
Tonight Baltimore leads Boston 1-0 at the end of 5-1-1 on a home run by <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/brooks-robinson/>Brooks Robinson</a> his 20th.

564
00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:56,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/mike-garman/>Mike Garman</a> pitching for the Red Sox. Jackson started for Baltimore Tom Dukes relieved in the sixth inning.

565
00:49:56,400 --> 00:50:04,400
Minnesota shutout California 1-0 as the young hard-throwing Burt Blyron climbed above the 500 mark 16-15.

566
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:10,400
Right the loser 16-17 the only run a homer by <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/rick-renick/>Rick Renick</a> his first of the year.

567
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:17,400
And we'll cover other scores for you as we go along but right now we're ready for the fourth inning and to tell you all about it here's <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/phil-rizzuto/>Phil Rizzuto</a>.

568
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:21,400
Hi Frank Metsa thank you very much.

569
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:27,400
Ronnie Hanson who popped his second base his first time up is up for the Yankees they trail 3-1.

570
00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:32,400
Schellenbach's pitch is high and outside.

571
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:34,400
One ball one strike.

572
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:37,400
Phil at the end of one and a half it's Cleveland 1 and Detroit nothing.

573
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:42,400
Mickey Lowlich going for his 26th win and <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/vince-colbert/>Vince Colbert</a> pitching for Cleveland.

574
00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:46,400
There's a line drive foul ball down the left field line off the wall.

575
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:54,400
Well the Yankees made sure Lowlich didn't win his 26 when they beat him 3-2 out there in Detroit behind <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/fritz-peterson/>Fritz Peterson</a>.

576
00:50:54,400 --> 00:51:03,400
Clubs now like to knock off those top pitches and top clubs.

577
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:12,400
A ball and two strikes on Ronnie Hanson a left-handed Jim Schellenbach delivers a line drive one-handed by the shortstop.

578
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:18,400
Mason Yankees hitting that ball on the nose but not having very good direction one away.

579
00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:26,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> who was robbed of a base hit his first time up on a diving sliding backhand grab by the youngster at second base <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/tom-ragland/>Tom Ragland</a>.

580
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:37,400
He flipped it to the shortstop for a force play saved a big inning that the Yankees might have had.

581
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:47,400
Jim Schellenbach who's staying in the big leagues because he can beat the Yankees sends in a strike on the first pitch to <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a>.

582
00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:55,400
A lot of ball players have stayed in the big leagues because they can hit maybe one pitcher or one club very well or a pitcher pitches very well against just one club.

583
00:51:55,400 --> 00:52:05,400
There's strike two nothing in two.

584
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:11,400
Schellenbach back in a hurry curve bounce down the first base line through and out to right field.

585
00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:24,400
Gibbs is around first base and then comes back as Burroughs fires the ball in and that'll be a base hit for <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> right under the glove of the first baseman Larry Bittner.

586
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:30,400
That brings up <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/gene-michael/>Gene Michael</a> who lined a single left field his first time up.

587
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:39,400
And it is leading three to one. Boy they have really had the Yankees number this year.

588
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:50,400
One out in a third is <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/toby-harrah/>Toby Harrah</a> the pitch to Michael is a curve hit in the air to center field on to digging hard coming in he's under and now one hands the ball bluffs the throw to first and Gibbs goes back.

589
00:52:50,400 --> 00:53:07,400
Hunter a fine defensive center fielder. Two men out here is Mel Staudelmeyer Mel struck out his first time up.

590
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:20,400
Gibbs at first with two men out. Normally Mel hits very well down here in the nation's capital as a foul off the plate hit Mel in the hip strike one.

591
00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:26,400
I realize I was going to say if I could didn't realize how upset Big <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a> is and the idea of the senators moving out of here.

592
00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:31,400
We're talking about that earlier he wants to be traded. He doesn't want to go to Texas.

593
00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:37,400
He wants to be traded to a contender to go out on top.

594
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:47,400
Schellenbach's curve is on the inside corner strike to call.

595
00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:54,400
He could be a big hero down there I don't know the dimensions of the fences in the ballpark down there.

596
00:53:54,400 --> 00:54:03,400
I've pitched just outside a ball and two strikes but normally when they build a team in the minor leagues they don't make them to be there have been a couple of exceptions.

597
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:09,400
I remember the one the old Baltimore club used to play in before they moved into the new park.

598
00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:18,400
I don't think it had any fence change up is in their strike three called Staudelmeyer called out second time Mel has been struck out.

599
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:36,400
The Yankees no runs ahead no errors and a man left and if you end up three and a half it's Washington three and the Yankees one.

600
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:40,400
The village blacksmith was one of the men who built America.

601
00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:47,400
He shot many a horse forged many a plow and built many a mighty thirst a more than one beer thirst.

602
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:54,400
The kind of thirst that took more than one cold beer to satisfy and that's where Schaeffer came in.

603
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:58,400
We built a beer for the men who built America.

604
00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:08,400
We started practicing on more than one beer thirst back before most brewers even started brewing and practice makes perfect.

605
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:12,400
Today Schaeffer has the unmatched quality of flavor that never fades.

606
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:15,400
Schaeffer is made for the more than one beer man.

607
00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:18,400
Always has been always will be.

608
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:32,400
Schaeffer is the one beer to have when you're having more than one.

609
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:38,400
I understand fellas the new ballpark or the ballpark down in Arlington Texas is a fairly new ballpark.

610
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:41,400
Yes absolutely.

611
00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:48,400
And they have worked together all three mayors from Dallas Fort Worth and Arlington.

612
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:51,400
And it's been a real community project.

613
00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:54,400
There go getters down there.

614
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:56,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bill-fahey/>Bill Fahey</a> bounced the shortest first time up.

615
00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:59,400
Michael made an exceptionally fine play on the left hand.

616
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:08,400
There's a swing and a miss strike one.

617
00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,400
He had some interesting comments.

618
00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:15,400
He wondered why the fans and the big shots in the Washington area didn't start this long ago.

619
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:19,400
They drive to keep the senators here.

620
00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:25,400
They waited until short decided to leave and then all the complaints started coming in.

621
00:56:25,400 --> 00:56:28,400
One on one the count.

622
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:35,400
Kurt bounce slowly to second base clock comes in short hops it throws the first in time and there's one away.

623
00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:50,400
You know all the noise in the background tonight is pop luck night here at our stadium in the nation's capital and everything that's left over there giving away I saw them give away order grab baseball bat panty hose.

624
00:56:50,400 --> 00:57:08,400
Cap helmet. Good night for the kids almost every kid here is going to walk away with something. <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jim-mason/>Jim Mason</a> single left his first time up takes a curve inside strike one.

625
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:23,400
You hear that pounding with a bat. Mel's next pitch on the inside corner strike to call.

626
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:38,400
So Mel quickly ahead of <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jim-mason/>Jim Mason</a> that's the sign from Jake it and his pitch swing and a miss and he swung when the ball was in gives his glove he was looking for something didn't get it and was completely full.

627
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:54,400
Second strike out Jim in a round and now the better time raglan that'll my head him right off the hands is bad splitting half and it is soft roller to fully bail who flipped him out.

628
00:57:54,400 --> 00:58:11,400
Two out nobody on three to one the senators lead we're in the bottom of the fourth that'll my pitch is a little low ball one.

629
00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:28,400
Mel Rocks back Kirby checked it and it's a little bit low ball to do another. We got another pretty good crowd here tonight surprising me and tomorrow radio and television and newspapers are clamoring to fill this ballpark

630
00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:43,400
and they might just do it a grounded a third Hanson has it on one hop fires over to first and so for Raglan and the senators in the bottom of the fourth three up three down and at the end of four full innings it's Washington three the Yankees one.

631
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:59,400

Well I'm with Bobby all the way I'm the kind of guy that would like to try anything once, but not drugs.

636
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:57,400
No sir.

637
00:59:57,400 --> 01:00:04,400
Clock has struck out single a center as the Yankees try to tie this ballgame up a trail three to one <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/toby-harrah/>Toby Harrah</a> way in at third base.

638
01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:09,400
First pitch is a change up law ball one.

639
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:12,400
How are really playing clock shallow.

640
01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:30,400
Are it the ball fairly well down there and he has himself a base hit bounces on the plate and all the way back on the screen. Two balls no strikes

641
01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:34,400
on deck rusty Torres

642
01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:47,400
showing backs pitches right down the middle strike call to a month play clock straight away in the outfield.

643
01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:56,400
The two one delivery on the outside corner two balls two strikes are his steps out of the batter's box.

644
01:00:56,400 --> 01:01:08,400
Now back in count is even

645
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:16,400
to delivery ground ball the fair at our back up as it fires the first he's got a good arm and there's one of

646
01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:31,400
the best in the world and now rusty Torres bounce the short and line the single left field. He is red hot with that bat.

647
01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:38,400
Young man thought he was going to get an early vacation they called him up to play in the mayor's trophy game and Ralph I did not expect to use him anymore

648
01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:54,400
Bobby Mercer was injured they call him up he looks so good he's going to look and give him a good look takes a pitch outside ball one

649
01:01:54,400 --> 01:02:10,400
the pitch is a curve low ball to

650
01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:19,400
the two delivery change a bounce high a big hop to the shortstop the throw to first and it gets off the glove a bit no nonchalant at it.

651
01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:30,400
He takes Torres but rusty did not make the turn that's an error charge to bit now an easy play and he was stretching a little too far as the ball took off

652
01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:39,400
and nonchalant at that catch and went right off the tip of his glove bouncing back. So Bittner is charged with an error and a bad enough Bobby Mercer Bobby has just

653
01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:56,400
missed two base hits thrown out on a very close play by the shortstop in the first inning lined hard to the first baseman in the third one out.

654
01:02:56,400 --> 01:03:25,400
Torres at first stretch by Schellenbach curve just misses outside ball one on deck <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> Schellenbach comes to the belt curve is low ball to to another.

655
01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:45,400
Bittner now moves in back a rusty Torres down at first base got to protect against the line drive hit by Bobby Mercer the two delivery curve low ball three three and nothing.

656
01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:56,400
I told you Bobby now 0 for 2 Bobby now hitting 330.

657
01:03:56,400 --> 01:04:06,400
He cannot afford to make out any more times at bat if he wants to catch a lever that's a strike right down the middle.

658
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:21,400
Trails Tony Oliver by seven points a race for the batting crown in the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/AL/1971/overview/>American League</a> three balls to strike one out senators lead three to one top of the fifth left hander sets pitch to Mercer

659
01:04:21,400 --> 01:04:35,400
low ball four and Bobby's on Torres moves to second Mercer to first. That's the first walk by Schellenbach and it's the New York Yankee baseball network report for station identification.

660
01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:46,400
This is W.G.Y. radio 81 Schenectady New York.

661
01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:52,400
You have some karate experts in the next group.

662
01:04:52,400 --> 01:04:54,400
And boy that's a tough sport.

663
01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:57,400
I was messing around with one.

664
01:04:57,400 --> 01:05:10,400
Boy he almost broke my arm. They are strong strong fingers.

665
01:05:10,400 --> 01:05:16,400
The pitch is low and the count is even at one a month.

666
01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:20,400
People are not always what they appear. No, that's right.

667
01:05:20,400 --> 01:05:29,400
I mean you can be very fragile looking and if you take that karate muscles of steel.

668
01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:34,400
The pitch is inside two balls and a strike so the Yankees threatening now.

669
01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:39,400
What is that person second while they trail by two runs here in the top of the fifth.

670
01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:51,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> the batter and Felipe Lou on deck.

671
01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:55,400
Torres leads off second Mercer off first.

672
01:05:55,400 --> 01:05:59,400
The stretch and the curve low and inside ball three.

673
01:05:59,400 --> 01:06:08,400
So Schellenbach who's had perfect control up to this inning just walk Mercer has a 3-1 count on <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a>.

674
01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:15,400
Yankees would love to finish over 500. They've got to win the next two games to do that.

675
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:20,400
The pitch on the outside corner Roy had started for first base thought it was ball four.

676
01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:23,400
Lifts his head high in the air.

677
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:26,400
Now has a little chat with the playdump fire.

678
01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:33,400
But it's a full count three and two.

679
01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:41,400
A karate expert just came in here and I thought he was going to give me a shot in the back of the neck.

680
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:44,400
The runners go and the pitch is low.

681
01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:55,400
Ball four and the bases are loaded.

682
01:06:55,400 --> 01:07:00,400
The bases are loaded.

683
01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:14,400
White at first, Mercer at second, Torres at third and Felipe Lou who's single left and bounce the short will be the batter.

684
01:07:14,400 --> 01:07:20,400
Well the Yankees with a good chance now.

685
01:07:20,400 --> 01:07:24,400
Schellenbach gets the sign.

686
01:07:24,400 --> 01:07:30,400
Lindblad and Pena loosening up for the Senators a left hander and a right hander. A curve is bounced right into the Yankee dugout.

687
01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:43,400
Strike one.

688
01:07:43,400 --> 01:07:49,400
All three runners leading away Yankees with good speed on the bases.

689
01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:54,400
Curve line back the middle of base hit. This will tie it up. Torres scores. Here comes Mercer. He'll score.

690
01:07:54,400 --> 01:07:58,400
The throw to second and White just does get back in time.

691
01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:03,400
So Felipe Lou coming through with another clutch base hit.

692
01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:06,400
Two more RBIs for Felipe.

693
01:08:06,400 --> 01:08:15,400
As Torres and Mercer score in the ball game it's time three three.

694
01:08:15,400 --> 01:08:21,400
Well fill back early in the year when Felipe Lou was not hitting the ball that well and hitting a lot of shots that were being caught.

695
01:08:21,400 --> 01:08:26,400
A lot of folks were beginning to wonder but now he has 69 runs about it in.

696
01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:30,400
He'll be up around 286.

697
01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:38,400
That he will and he'll be right up to his lifetime average close to 290.

698
01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:45,400
Ron Hanson has popped a second in line hard to short. <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> at second. Felipe Lou at first. Only one out.

699
01:08:45,400 --> 01:08:51,400
Yankees have bounced back with two runs in the top of the fifth to tie the score.

700
01:08:51,400 --> 01:08:55,400
Schellenbach sets. White's going. He had a delayed start and the ball is fouled off.

701
01:08:55,400 --> 01:09:01,400
Roy started then stopped as Raglin started a run over from second base and then took off again.

702
01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:06,400
Felipe Lou is not running.

703
01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:10,400
Well the count is one and one. Hanson swung at the pitch and just did nub it foul.

704
01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:16,400
Would have been a good pitch for White to steal on it with an off speed pitch.

705
01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:21,400
Felipe right now batting 285.

706
01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:27,400
Now Felipe gets a big lead at first. White off second. Foul back off the screen.

707
01:09:27,400 --> 01:09:38,400
Ball and two strikes. On deck <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a>.

708
01:09:38,400 --> 01:09:52,400
Yankees have three runs on seven hits. Senators three runs on six hits. Yankees have made two errors and Washington one.

709
01:09:52,400 --> 01:10:17,400
Schellenbach gets the sign. The one two pitch change up outside and the count is evened at two and two.

710
01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:24,400
Schellenbach checks <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a>. His curve line drive just foul outside of third and Hanson split the bat on that one.

711
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:36,400
The curve in on his hand. Count holds at two and two but Ronnie has to go back for a new bat.

712
01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:40,400
Hanson walking all the way back to the dugout.

713
01:10:40,400 --> 01:10:49,400
Now running back to the batter's box. Yankees three, Senators three, top of the fifth.

714
01:10:49,400 --> 01:11:00,400
Only one out. Yankees have run at that first and second.

715
01:11:00,400 --> 01:11:12,400
Schellenbach gets the sign from Fahey. Comes to the belt. Delivers he held up on a change up and Schellenbach said where was the pitch?

716
01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:30,400
On fire set inside and it's a full count three and two and I will watch for Alou and White. See if they'll be running on a three two count.

717
01:11:30,400 --> 01:11:46,400
Now both runners leading away. They're going and the ball is lined up. Base hit for left. White will score easily. Alou will go to third easily and the Yankees now lead four to three.

718
01:11:46,400 --> 01:12:01,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/sid-hudson/>Sid Hudson</a> the pitching coach is coming out of the center of the dugout. Going a three two pitch and the runners going Hanson hit a bullet between third and short out the left field.

719
01:12:01,400 --> 01:12:16,400
Yes he wants the left hander <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/paul-lindblad/>Paul Lindblad</a> to come in and pitch to <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a>. So that will be all for Jim Schellenbach.

720
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:29,400
The error by the first baseman certainly did not help him here in the fifth inning. But the balls have been hit pretty well. He's walked a couple of men and two sharp singles by Alou and Hanson have put the Yankees out in front.

721
01:12:29,400 --> 01:12:50,400
So Jim Schellenbach in pitching four and one third innings has allowed four runs eight hits. Walked only let's see. Walked two men and he struck out three.

722
01:12:50,400 --> 01:13:00,400
So as Lindblad the left hander comes in let's take a look at some other scores for you quickly. Still nothing out of <a href=https://retroseasons.com/stadiums/sox-park-ii/>Sox Park</a> in Chicago where the Brewers are visiting.

723
01:13:00,400 --> 01:13:07,400
This afternoon Oakland beat Kansas City eight to seven. The Oakland A's have now won one hundred and one ball games.

724
01:13:07,400 --> 01:13:17,400
The <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/baltimore-orioles/1971/overview/>Baltimore Orioles</a> if they can hold on to a one to nothing lead will win their one hundred and first I believe Bill King.

725
01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:32,400
So the two winners in the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/AL/1971/overview/>American League</a> will not go into the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/AL/1971/overview/>American League</a> Championship Series with identical records however because Baltimore has four games that were rained out that will not be made up.

726
01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:38,400
Oakland has I believe only one and that was against Baltimore.

727
01:13:38,400 --> 01:13:48,400
But nonetheless that should be a very very interesting series. The <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/NL/1971/overview/>National League</a> has not yet been determined. The <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/pittsburgh-pirates/1971/overview/>Pittsburgh Pirates</a> are in but who's it going to be the Dodgers or the Giants.

728
01:13:48,400 --> 01:14:05,400
We'll know probably after tonight. Minnesota blank California one to nothing. Minnesota got only three base hits of <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/clyde-wright/>Clyde Wright</a> of California but one was a home run by <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/rick-renick/>Rick Renick</a> his first of the year and that was the only scoring in that ballgame.

729
01:14:05,400 --> 01:14:21,400
Bert Blylevin got the win. Cleveland leads Detroit two to nothing at the end of three innings as Mickey Lowlitz pitching for Detroit is trying to win number 26 is opposed by <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/vince-colbert/>Vince Colbert</a>.

730
01:14:21,400 --> 01:14:37,400
Mickey Lowlitz tonight has a chance to win the strikeout title in the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/AL/1971/overview/>American League</a> as he invited a blue both had three hundred and one before Lowlitz started that ballgame tonight I got a bet that Lowlitz will get at least one.

731
01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:45,400
Baltimore one to nothing over Boston at the end of seven and a half playing over in Baltimore Mike Garmin a good looking youngster pitching that ballgame for Boston.

732
01:14:45,400 --> 01:14:57,400
Jackson Dukes and now what for Baltimore the only run so far <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/brooks-robinson/>Brooks Robinson</a>'s 20th home run in the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/NL/1971/overview/>National League</a> the Cubs and Montreal scoreless at the end of one and a half and the games on the West Coast not yet underway.

733
01:14:57,400 --> 01:15:01,400
All right. Linblad is ready to pitch to <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> and back to <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/phil-rizzuto/>Phil Rizzuto</a>.

734
01:15:01,400 --> 01:15:07,400
All right Frank and there's still only one out. Yankees have a little third and Hanson at first.

735
01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:14,400
They lead four to three stretch by Linblad pitch to Jake as a curve is swinging a missed strike one.

736
01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:19,400
Linblad has won seven lost for good earned run average two point eight eight.

737
01:15:19,400 --> 01:15:26,400
This is his 50th game.

738
01:15:26,400 --> 01:15:31,400
All right Linblad and it's up jam here the infields back and double play depth.

739
01:15:31,400 --> 01:15:39,400
It's the Jake occur bounce to first base throw to second for one back to first no double play and another run score.

740
01:15:39,400 --> 01:15:46,400
So that's a second run batted into the night for <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> and both on ground balls that he bounced in a fourth place.

741
01:15:46,400 --> 01:15:49,400
Jake does have a single in between. He's one for three.

742
01:15:49,400 --> 01:16:00,400
That run is charged to shell and back for the Yankees are now out in front five to three and the batter Jean Michael a single left and fly to center.

743
01:16:00,400 --> 01:16:15,400
I thought that was going to come to the plate the ball was not hit hard enough actually to double a left hand batter.

744
01:16:15,400 --> 01:16:20,400
Stretch by Linblad pitches a little bit high ball one.

745
01:16:20,400 --> 01:16:30,400
So Felipe Lou is driven into runs and one and <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> to the Yankees.

746
01:16:30,400 --> 01:16:34,400
Now there are two men out.

747
01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:49,400
Curve is in their good curve ball by Linblad one on one the count.

748
01:16:49,400 --> 01:16:55,400
Gibbs leads away another curve it is bad strike to one ball two strikes.

749
01:16:55,400 --> 01:17:04,400
Jean was trying to get his bat out of the way and it just ticked it.

750
01:17:04,400 --> 01:17:15,400
One ball two strikes two up.

751
01:17:15,400 --> 01:17:20,400
The left hander stretches fastball line to left center for a base hit.

752
01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:28,400
Gibbs is around second base he'll go to third answer Bob was the ball how it up with it goes underhand into the shortstop who cuts it off.

753
01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:33,400
And Jean Michael comes up with his second base hit for the Yankees.

754
01:17:33,400 --> 01:17:47,400
Their ninth base hit gives us a third Michael at first and now Mel Salomar Mel's been up twice struck out both times.

755
01:17:47,400 --> 01:17:54,400
The Yankees have their hitting shoes on here in the fifth inning.

756
01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:58,400
Well with a chance to pick up another run.

757
01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:18,400
Two out runners at first and third pitch by Linblad swing and a miss at a curve strike one.

758
01:18:18,400 --> 01:18:22,400
Michael leads off first Gibbs off third.

759
01:18:22,400 --> 01:18:28,400
Here bounce slowly to third base Harrah has to wait for it.

760
01:18:28,400 --> 01:18:31,400
Fires to first in time.

761
01:18:31,400 --> 01:18:37,400
They come up with four runs on three bases there was one error and two men left.

762
01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:41,400
And at the end of four and a half is the Yankees five the Senators three.

763
01:18:41,400 --> 01:18:48,400
Here's good news for folks who use rental trucks or trailers to move their household furnishings or for miscellaneous hauling jobs.

771
01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:57,400
Paul Linblad had a brief tenure in this ballgame two thirds of an inning because <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bernie-allen/>Bernie Allen</a> now will come out and pinch hit for him to lead off the bottom half of the fifth inning against Mel Stuttenmeyer and now with a five to three lead.

772
01:19:57,400 --> 01:20:00,400
This stage of the ballgame still can be pretty tough.

773
01:20:00,400 --> 01:20:03,400
It could be and of course this <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bernie-allen/>Bernie Allen</a>.

774
01:20:03,400 --> 01:20:11,400
Then exceptionally well against the Yankees when he's playing and when he's pinch hitting.

775
01:20:11,400 --> 01:20:14,400
Well it took a little time to get a pebble out of his shoe.

776
01:20:14,400 --> 01:20:19,400
Still warming up with Jake.

777
01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:24,400
They still Mel Stuttenmeyer and <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> have developed a very close friendship over the years.

778
01:20:24,400 --> 01:20:26,400
Their careers are paralleled greatly.

779
01:20:26,400 --> 01:20:39,400
They were together two years I believe in Richmond came up to the Yankees have been together here and have become close personal friends a friendship that I'm sure will hold even though Jake goes down to Mississippi gives up professional baseball and

780
01:20:39,400 --> 01:20:44,400
Mel Stuttenmeyer of course will stay around and continue to be one of the better right handers in the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/AL/1971/overview/>American League</a>.

781
01:20:44,400 --> 01:20:45,400
No doubt about that.

782
01:20:45,400 --> 01:20:51,400
I'm sure Mel will get down and visit Jake probably on his way to Florida for next spring.

783
01:20:51,400 --> 01:20:54,400
The first pitch to <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bernie-allen/>Bernie Allen</a> is low.

784
01:20:54,400 --> 01:21:09,400
The Yankees banded around last inning and our <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bernie-allen/>Bernie Allen</a> batting for Linblad takes another curve inside ball two to an up.

785
01:21:09,400 --> 01:21:14,400
It'll be Allen on Sir and Howard <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bernie-allen/>Bernie Allen</a> sitting to 68 he's always tough against the Yankees.

786
01:21:14,400 --> 01:21:18,400
And as a curve over strike one two and one.

787
01:21:18,400 --> 01:21:28,400
And he is outstanding football player in his college days quarterback he fouls one back upstairs and out of play.

788
01:21:28,400 --> 01:21:38,400
Even the counter to and to regular second baseman for the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Minnesota Twins</a>.

789
01:21:38,400 --> 01:21:44,400
Before coming to Washington.

790
01:21:44,400 --> 01:21:48,400
Two balls two strikes.

791
01:21:48,400 --> 01:22:00,400
Pitch by Stuttenmeyer low and inside ball three and it's a full count three and two.

792
01:22:00,400 --> 01:22:05,400
And not have an easy game with these senators.

793
01:22:05,400 --> 01:22:07,400
The pay off pitch.

794
01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:10,400
Swing and a miss and he went after a bad pitch.

795
01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:15,400
And knew it after he swung he really reached for a sinker down and away way out of the strike zone.

796
01:22:15,400 --> 01:22:20,400
Third strike out for Stuttenmeyer.

797
01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:28,400
And now Dell answer pop the third and line to second base.

798
01:22:28,400 --> 01:22:30,400
Hanson moves way in at third.

799
01:22:30,400 --> 01:22:33,400
Felipe shortens up at first base.

800
01:22:33,400 --> 01:22:38,400
Even Michael and Clark shorten up a couple of steps with the left hand hitting on two is very fast.

801
01:22:38,400 --> 01:22:52,400
Stuttenmeyer pitches over the corner strike one call.

802
01:22:52,400 --> 01:23:03,400
The one strike delivery foul back and out of play in the seats down and back of third base.

803
01:23:03,400 --> 01:23:13,400
Nothing into the count.

804
01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:19,400
One out nobody on Yankees five senators three bottom of the fifth.

805
01:23:19,400 --> 01:23:23,400
Curve lined up base hitter right field on to out in front of that curve ball.

806
01:23:23,400 --> 01:23:27,400
Torrey's up with it.

807
01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:34,400
And so the senators come up with their seventh base hit off Stuttenmeyer brings up Toby Harrow who has two of those seven hits.

808
01:23:34,400 --> 01:23:43,400
Single right in the first stole the base and scored on Howard single beat out a bunt went to second on Stuttenmeyer's bad throw Mel was charged with an error.

809
01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:55,400
Scored on a single by Bittner in the third and he's two for two.

810
01:23:55,400 --> 01:23:58,400
Hunter leads off first.

811
01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:12,400
Stuttenmeyer's pitch swing and a miss and he was trying to go to right field.

812
01:24:12,400 --> 01:24:15,400
Well slowing the pace down just a bit.

813
01:24:15,400 --> 01:24:25,400
A little holes first against Hunter.

814
01:24:25,400 --> 01:24:38,400
Already he throw to first answer is back.

815
01:24:38,400 --> 01:24:47,400
Bounced up the middle and Clark has a throw but not in time.

816
01:24:47,400 --> 01:24:54,400
He said very late and Toby Harrow is now three for three and a high bouncing ball over Stuttenmeyer's head.

817
01:24:54,400 --> 01:24:56,400
That clock came up with going to his right.

818
01:24:56,400 --> 01:25:00,400
He made a good throw to Michael but Hunter split and he slid very late.

819
01:25:00,400 --> 01:25:07,400
Almost hurt his leg almost jumped in a second base.

820
01:25:07,400 --> 01:25:11,400
Back now for the Senators and here is Larry Bitten flying the left single at center.

821
01:25:11,400 --> 01:25:20,400
He scored a run and driven in a run.

822
01:25:20,400 --> 01:25:26,400
Yankees out in front five to three but these Senators have been tough on the Yankees all year.

823
01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:30,400
Bittner a left hand batter.

824
01:25:30,400 --> 01:25:34,400
Mel's pitch swing and a miss strike one.

825
01:25:34,400 --> 01:25:37,400
He was trying to jerk one over that fence in right field.

826
01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:49,400
On deck big <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a>.

827
01:25:49,400 --> 01:25:53,400
Run his lead off first and second.

828
01:25:53,400 --> 01:25:55,400
Mel takes a long look in for the sign.

829
01:25:55,400 --> 01:25:57,400
Now he's got it.

830
01:25:57,400 --> 01:26:07,400
Check sensor delivers ground ball up the middle clock to his right backhand to go to Michael one back to first double play and a beautiful double play for the Yankees.

831
01:26:07,400 --> 01:26:15,400
Iris Clark turned in two sparkling defensive plays there and on that one he got the double play four six three.

832
01:26:15,400 --> 01:26:24,400
No runs two hits no errors and a man left and at the end of five full innings it's the Yankees five the Senators three.

833
01:26:24,400 --> 01:26:31,400
Did you know your car breathes well it does and there's a new gasoline at your Arco station that helps your car breathe easy.

834
01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:39,400
It's called Arco Supreme by helping your car breathe easy it helps solve a problem that's caused by a lot of other gasoline.

835
01:26:39,400 --> 01:26:43,400
Arco Supreme keeps deposits from building up in your engines breathing tubes.

836
01:26:43,400 --> 01:26:51,400
That's the carburetor the intake manifold and the intake valve and that's important because on valves machine to millimeters.

837
01:26:51,400 --> 01:27:01,400
It doesn't take much deposit to interfere with your car's breathing even a little deposit can keep valves from closing properly and cause you power loss and gas waste.

838
01:27:01,400 --> 01:27:09,400
A lot of deposits can mean expensive repairs like a one hundred and twenty five dollar valve job by keeping the breathing tubes of your car open.

839
01:27:09,400 --> 01:27:17,400
Arco Supreme keeps your car breathing easy and the easier your car breathes the more power it has and the less gas it uses.

840
01:27:17,400 --> 01:27:26,400
Arco Supreme is at your Arco station now it's a good thing to know about because knowing your car breathes easy should make you breathe easy too.

841
01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:34,400
Denny Rittleberger another left hander comes on to pitch for the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a>.

842
01:27:34,400 --> 01:27:44,400
So <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/paul-lindblad/>Paul Lindblad</a> pitched to three batters gave up one base hit no runs and now Rittleberger.

843
01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:48,400
And many more left handers as <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/ted-williams/>Ted Williams</a> got out there that bullpen.

844
01:27:48,400 --> 01:27:59,400
Rittleberger's won three and lost one shows an earned run average of three eighteen he's had one save working out of the bullpen and this is his fifty seventh appearance of the season.

845
01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:08,400
So Horace Clark rusty Tories and Bobby Mercer will be up here in the sixth inning and Mercer will have to look again at a left hand pitcher.

846
01:28:08,400 --> 01:28:22,400
Right on a park who led off the top of the fifth inning actually Horace has led off four times now in the ballgame in the first inning in the third inning and in the fifth inning and again here in the sixth inning.

847
01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:30,400
Horace is one for three struck out single center and bounce the third.

848
01:28:30,400 --> 01:28:40,400
And he's out in front five three in the top of the sixth.

849
01:28:40,400 --> 01:28:49,400
Rittleberger kicks delivers high and tight ball one comes a little bit side on this left hander.

850
01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:56,400
And glad was straight over the top.

851
01:28:56,400 --> 01:29:01,400
Curve hit on the ground pass third base and let's say Clark will go for two I'm sure.

852
01:29:01,400 --> 01:29:12,400
Yep he's around first digging for second how it's thrown not nearly in time and Horace Clark is in there with a stand up double.

853
01:29:12,400 --> 01:29:14,400
Big hundo and left hander.

854
01:29:14,400 --> 01:29:22,400
He tries to run very hard he gives a hundred and ten percent but he just does not move too quick.

855
01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:29,400
That's the Yankees tenth base hit on the ball game in their first extra base hit and for Horace Clark is twenty second to bagger.

856
01:29:29,400 --> 01:29:34,400
All right and his rusty Torres bounce the short single left reached on an error.

857
01:29:34,400 --> 01:29:38,400
How was the error that started the Yankees beginning.

858
01:29:38,400 --> 01:29:48,400
It's too rusty hit to the right side and rusty gave himself up and Ragland froze to first they get Torrey's Torrey's went with that pitch to advance clock to third base.

859
01:29:48,400 --> 01:29:51,400
And I'm sure Ralph Hawkins pleased with that Frank.

860
01:29:51,400 --> 01:30:01,400
Yes he is that goes down and Ralph's metal bus of buses for rusty Torres and you'd have to think Bill that Torres would have an excellent chance of making this ballclub next year.

861
01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:02,400
Well I would say so.

862
01:30:02,400 --> 01:30:16,400
All right Bobby Mercer Bobby's open to thrown out on a very close play when he bounced the short in the first inning lined up first in the third and walked and scored in the fifth.

863
01:30:16,400 --> 01:30:43,400
Bobby's chances of leading the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/AL/1971/overview/>American League</a> in batting slowly glimmering away dimming away the pitch to Bobby is a curve outside ball one the infield is in for the senators trying to cut off a run at the plate Yankees lead five three Bobby has ninety two runs batted in and he has scored ninety three runs this year.

864
01:30:43,400 --> 01:30:55,400
Well because an RBI here you're leaving it up ninety three a piece.

865
01:30:55,400 --> 01:31:14,400
Park leads off there little bit pitch low and outside ball to do nothing.

866
01:31:14,400 --> 01:31:23,400
One out clock and third left hander winds curve hit deep to right but foul Bobby way out in front of.

867
01:31:23,400 --> 01:31:36,400
All the things said about Bobby Mercer is certainly one of the big things Bill over the last two years Bobby struck out two hundred and three times this year he has struck out with fifty nine and that is certainly a mark of improvement.

868
01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:39,400
That's a big plus.

869
01:31:39,400 --> 01:31:54,400
To have that real outstanding year when you're striking out so often some players are able to do it.

870
01:31:54,400 --> 01:32:09,400
Well who struck out a lot but had such a fantastic record the late great <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/babe-ruth/>Babe Ruth</a>.

871
01:32:09,400 --> 01:32:13,400
Three and one on Mercer Bobby will be hitting away if it's near the plate.

872
01:32:13,400 --> 01:32:19,400
He takes it low ball for so Mercer walks for the second time.

873
01:32:19,400 --> 01:32:27,400
The Yankee baseball network we pause for station identification.

874
01:32:27,400 --> 01:32:38,400
This is W.G.Y. radio 81 Schenectady New York.

875
01:32:38,400 --> 01:32:52,400
I'd run right now with runners at first and third and Roy who broke the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/AL/1971/overview/>American League</a> record last night for sacrifice flies getting his 17th has a chance for another one here the pitch but he hits the ground at a second Raglan flips to the shortstop one back to first.

876
01:32:52,400 --> 01:33:08,400
Dave had first and the Yankees get another run that time Ragman could have stepped on second base and thrown a first he elected to go to the shortstop where I had come quite a ways playing white in the hole.

877
01:33:08,400 --> 01:33:19,400
He decided for a run batted in Clark scored and the Yankees now lead six to three.

878
01:33:19,400 --> 01:33:40,400
The way a loop single twice and bounce the short. Well he pays driven into tonight. Well why did first Mr. Felipe foul over toward the center to dug out and in the dugout strike one.

879
01:33:40,400 --> 01:33:48,400
Ronnie Hanson on deck.

880
01:33:48,400 --> 01:33:56,400
He's got his eyes on tape one on one.

881
01:33:56,400 --> 01:34:08,400
That Baltimore they shut out the Red Sox one and up.

882
01:34:08,400 --> 01:34:18,400
Pitch to Felipe swing and a miss on a weird looking pitch that time.

883
01:34:18,400 --> 01:34:30,400
They way out in front of all in two strikes.

884
01:34:30,400 --> 01:34:44,400
And it sets curve just inside two and two.

885
01:34:44,400 --> 01:34:50,400
Two balls two strikes two out.

886
01:34:50,400 --> 01:35:00,400
He's going good job the pitchers filed at the plate though Felipe had to protect the plate with two strikes on him.

887
01:35:00,400 --> 01:35:06,400
So white has to come back.

888
01:35:06,400 --> 01:35:16,400
Frank that <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/alex-johnson/>Alex Johnson</a> won a big case against the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/los-angeles-angels/1971/overview/>California Angels</a> going to get all that back pay less the fines he has to pay.

889
01:35:16,400 --> 01:35:20,400
You know what I you know what was funny to me.

890
01:35:20,400 --> 01:35:28,400
The way it is the pitch to Felipe line drive one hopper to the shortstop he flips to the second base. Have to talk about a little later on when we come back.

891
01:35:28,400 --> 01:35:34,400
But the Yankees pick up another big run on just one base it nowhere is in a man left.

892
01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:50,400
And the score now at the end of five and a half Yankee six senators three.

893
01:35:50,400 --> 01:35:56,400
One day in 1840 a three master schooner sailed into New York.

894
01:35:56,400 --> 01:36:01,400
On board was a young man from what's large Germany.

895
01:36:01,400 --> 01:36:07,400
He set sail with just a dollar in his pocket and an old family recipe for a new kind of beer.

896
01:36:07,400 --> 01:36:13,400
His name was Maximilian Schaefer and the beer he introduced to America was Schaefer lager beer.

897
01:36:13,400 --> 01:36:20,400
It was aged or lager for many weeks to give it a unique lightness and quality.

898
01:36:20,400 --> 01:36:27,400
Today Schaefer is still unique with flavor that never fades first frosty glass to last.

899
01:36:27,400 --> 01:36:41,400
The one beer to have when you're having more than one.

900
01:36:41,400 --> 01:36:45,400
Well <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/alex-johnson/>Alex Johnson</a> in addition to getting his money Bill says he wants to play baseball again.

901
01:36:45,400 --> 01:36:47,400
I was happy to hear that Frank.

902
01:36:47,400 --> 01:36:54,400
But what I was saying that in the article when <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/alex-johnson/>Alex Johnson</a> said that he was ready to play again.

903
01:36:54,400 --> 01:37:00,400
He said he had gone to the psychiatrist and he also said I could teach those psychiatrists a thing or two.

904
01:37:00,400 --> 01:37:03,400
They try to read my mind and nobody can read my mind.

905
01:37:03,400 --> 01:37:05,400
I know what I want to do and I do it.

906
01:37:05,400 --> 01:37:08,400
But he said that before after they made their decision.

907
01:37:08,400 --> 01:37:12,400
After they made the decision.

908
01:37:12,400 --> 01:37:15,400
That's what leads me to believe he knows what he wants to do and does it.

909
01:37:15,400 --> 01:37:22,400
His big <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a> he's single twice and driven in two runs takes a pitch outside ball one.

910
01:37:22,400 --> 01:37:24,400
We all know that <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/alex-johnson/>Alex Johnson</a> has a talent.

911
01:37:24,400 --> 01:37:29,400
He certainly has a talent for baseball and I hope that he puts it all to use and plays for a ball.

912
01:37:29,400 --> 01:37:32,400
I would like to see that there's a ground ball down the first base line.

913
01:37:32,400 --> 01:37:39,400
Lotta English Felipe picks it up and steps on first for the out.

914
01:37:39,400 --> 01:37:46,400
It was strange that lefty Phillips said he only gave 65 percent the year he won the batting crowd.

915
01:37:46,400 --> 01:37:56,400
If he only gave 65 percent led the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/AL/1971/overview/>American League</a> in batting imagine if he did give out 100 percent.

916
01:37:56,400 --> 01:38:03,400
I Jeff Burrows has struck out and fly it into a double play.

917
01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:30,400
Donald Myers curve a little low ball one Yankees six senators three bottom of the six curve outside ball two to nothing.

918
01:38:30,400 --> 01:38:44,400
The two delivery inside ball three three nothing.

919
01:38:44,400 --> 01:38:59,400
The three delivery is right in there Mel Lated right in there three and one.

920
01:38:59,400 --> 01:39:09,400
Strike two call so Burrows was taking all the way.

921
01:39:09,400 --> 01:39:17,400
Full count one out nobody on.

922
01:39:17,400 --> 01:39:30,400
Saddle my with the payoff pitch high fly right field rusty Torrey moving in under and rusty makes the catch.

923
01:39:30,400 --> 01:39:31,400
There are two men out.

924
01:39:31,400 --> 01:39:37,400
Saddle my has not walked a man and that time he was behind three and oh and still came in with three strikes.

925
01:39:37,400 --> 01:39:51,400
Michael making a fine play to throw him out and then bounce the second.

926
01:39:51,400 --> 01:40:03,400
Two men out Mel pitches on the inside corner strike one call.

927
01:40:03,400 --> 01:40:11,400
One strike delivery just outside one of my.

928
01:40:11,400 --> 01:40:18,400
They have done in four thousand and three four oh oh three.

929
01:40:18,400 --> 01:40:26,400
One one pitch slow curve is high to a month.

930
01:40:26,400 --> 01:40:35,400
Well that Hurricane Ginger has finally made up a mind and is bearing down now on the North Carolina coast and Cape Hatteras.

931
01:40:35,400 --> 01:40:38,400
They're going to have torrential rains tomorrow.

932
01:40:38,400 --> 01:40:42,400
There's a strike on the inside corner two and two.

933
01:40:42,400 --> 01:40:48,400
And it will affect the nation's capital on Friday and probably move up to Jersey for a little more rain.

934
01:40:48,400 --> 01:40:50,400
They are waterlogged already up there.

935
01:40:50,400 --> 01:40:57,400
The two to pitch it in the air to right field rusty Torrey digs in he's there now makes the catch up.

936
01:40:57,400 --> 01:41:08,400
Kid gets a quick jump on fly ball three up three down and at the end of six full innings it's Yankees six the senators three and now Frank with some scores.

937
01:41:08,400 --> 01:41:17,400
All right Bill Milwaukee at Chicago just underway the Brewers failed to score in the top half of the first Jimmy Slayton is pitching for Milwaukee and <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/wilbur-wood/>Wilbur Wood</a> going for Chicago.

938
01:41:17,400 --> 01:41:20,400
Oakland defeated Kansas City this afternoon eight to seven.

939
01:41:20,400 --> 01:41:30,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bob-locker/>Bob Locker</a> got the win seven and two and <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/ted-abernathy/>Ted Abernathy</a> the loser four and six Kansas City had three home runs a pair by <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bob-oliver/>Bob Oliver</a> his seventh and eighth and Paul Shaw number 11.

940
01:41:30,400 --> 01:41:38,400
Baltimore shutout Boston one to nothing on a five hitter by Jackson Dukes and what with <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/grant-jackson/>Grant Jackson</a> the starter getting the win.

941
01:41:38,400 --> 01:41:42,400
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/mike-garman/>Mike Garman</a> was the loser for Boston and he pitched a five hitter.

942
01:41:42,400 --> 01:41:50,400
Minnesota shutout California one to nothing Burt Blylevin getting his 16th win and Rick Lenick providing the game's only run with his first homer of the year.

943
01:41:50,400 --> 01:42:00,400
Cleveland leads Detroit two to one at the end of four lowly to get Colbert in the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/NL/1971/overview/>National League</a> Montreal three in Chicago two at the end of three innings <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/billy-williams/>Billy Williams</a> has homered for the Cubs his 27th.

944
01:42:00,400 --> 01:42:08,400
Milk Pappa supposing Steve Ranko Houston at Los Angeles and San Francisco at San Diego will be later starts.

945
01:42:08,400 --> 01:42:18,400
So that's a rundown another scores right here the Yankees have six runs 10 hits with two hours and Washington three runs eight hits and one error.

946
01:42:18,400 --> 01:42:26,400
And ready to step in right now with the play by play through the last three innings of this ballgame ladies and gentlemen here is <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bill-white/>Bill White</a>.

947
01:42:26,400 --> 01:42:31,400
Hi Frank Ronnie had some lead off with the Yankees Ronnie's one for three.

948
01:42:31,400 --> 01:42:42,400
With an RBI he's popped a second line the shortstop and single left driving in a run in the fifth inning.

949
01:42:42,400 --> 01:42:47,400
Curveball driven foul that feel way back there.

950
01:42:47,400 --> 01:42:51,400
The mezzanine bounces out.

951
01:42:51,400 --> 01:42:54,400
Riddle burger ahead now no balls in a strike.

952
01:42:54,400 --> 01:42:59,400
Yankees lead six three we're in the seventh.

953
01:42:59,400 --> 01:43:14,400
On deck <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jake-gibbs/>Jake Gibbs</a> little burger looks in and just catch your face pumps and deals curveball Hanson lines at the right center field after it is the right fielder Burrows he catches up with it.

954
01:43:14,400 --> 01:43:18,400
One away.

955
01:43:18,400 --> 01:43:30,400
Hanson hit the ball hard. I can't get the ball hard as last three times up he's lying to the shortstop single left and he hit that ball hard in the right center field but Burrows caught up with it.

956
01:43:30,400 --> 01:43:33,400
One out here's Gibbs.

957
01:43:33,400 --> 01:43:40,400
Jake's only one for three but he's driven into runs.

958
01:43:40,400 --> 01:43:48,400
Big batting left handed against left hander left hander riddle burger then he's ready.

959
01:43:48,400 --> 01:43:56,400
That's Paul's high on deck <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/gene-michael/>Gene Michael</a>.

960
01:43:56,400 --> 01:44:04,400
A play Gibbs to pull one old pitch curveball swung on and missed all the other strike zone.

961
01:44:04,400 --> 01:44:11,400
Burrows hugging the line in right field Hunter straight away in center.

962
01:44:11,400 --> 01:44:13,400
So is Howard and left.

963
01:44:13,400 --> 01:44:22,400
Here's the one one pitch to give sidearm fastballs line the left field <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a>'s after it he has a room now backs up a bit and grabs it for the second out.

964
01:44:22,400 --> 01:44:34,400
Gibbs lines the Howard and left field and that'll bring in the stick gene Mike. He's two for three to single both the left field.

965
01:44:34,400 --> 01:44:38,400
He'll bat right handed against the riddle burger.

966
01:44:38,400 --> 01:44:45,400
For a while as though the senator Jinx would continue the Yankees picked up four runs in the fifth.

967
01:44:45,400 --> 01:44:56,400
Michael takes a ball inside take a five to three lead they added one more last inning and they lead six three here top of the seventh.

968
01:44:56,400 --> 01:45:01,400
One old pitch to Michael change up gets the inside corner call strike one and one else.

969
01:45:01,400 --> 01:45:15,400
Al Stollmeyer kneeling on the on deck circle. I'll show shortens up just a bit for Michael gene chokes on the bat one one pitch to him curveball pop the first base right there is Bittner.

970
01:45:15,400 --> 01:45:18,400
Let's see and foul territory. He grabs it.

971
01:45:18,400 --> 01:45:21,400
We had to wait for Jim Odom.

972
01:45:21,400 --> 01:45:30,400
So Michael fouls out to the first baseman Larry Bittner and that's it for the Yankees here in the seventh three men up and three men down at the end of six and a half innings of play.

973
01:45:30,400 --> 01:45:33,400
The Yankees six the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/washington-football-team/1971/overview/>Washington Redskins</a>.

974
01:45:33,400 --> 01:45:38,400
So why do I call them <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/washington-football-team/1971/overview/>Washington Redskins</a> <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a> three.

975
01:45:38,400 --> 01:45:44,400
If you're going to move why not do it yourself with you haul as more than six million families do every year.

976
01:45:44,400 --> 01:45:50,400
Save as much as 50 percent or more of the usual cost and move at your convenience not someone else's.

977
01:45:50,400 --> 01:45:54,400
You haul trucks and trailers are available in a full range of sizes.

978
01:45:54,400 --> 01:45:57,400
There's one that's just right for your move.

979
01:45:57,400 --> 01:46:02,400
You can rent equipment from your nearest you haul dealer and leave it with a dealer in your new neighborhood.

980
01:46:02,400 --> 01:46:14,400
Even if you're going clear across the country you haul has low one way rental rates insurance guaranteed tires and free road service and cargo insurance is included on trucks and trailers.

981
01:46:14,400 --> 01:46:19,400
You haul has a moving guy that helps plan your move and makes the job a lot easier.

982
01:46:19,400 --> 01:46:22,400
Stop in at your nearest you haul dealers.

983
01:46:22,400 --> 01:46:25,400
Willie hooks Texaco Route 9W Glenmont.

984
01:46:25,400 --> 01:46:41,400
Ripley and Harpinger 3702 State Street Schenectady and Airways rent a car 660 Albany Shaker Road Airport exit at Northway or consult the yellow pages for the you haul dealer nearest you.

985
01:46:41,400 --> 01:46:43,400
All right let's see here.

986
01:46:43,400 --> 01:46:58,400
Last of the seven Washington Nelson then <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/jim-mason/>Jim Mason</a> the shortstop <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/tom-ragland/>Tom Ragland</a> the second baseman and probably a pinch hitter for Denny Rittleberger.

987
01:46:58,400 --> 01:47:07,400
Stottle Myer looking for victory number 16 Mason's one for two single and he struck out that's left handed lines a base hit the right field fast Clark.

988
01:47:07,400 --> 01:47:14,400
Torres boxes and Mason holds the first base the kids now two for three.

989
01:47:14,400 --> 01:47:20,400
Cut on Stottle Myer's first pitch and aligned it in the hole between a Lou and Clark.

990
01:47:20,400 --> 01:47:30,400
Face it number nine for Washington and <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/tom-ragland/>Tom Ragland</a> steps in he's over to he's bounced to the first baseman he's bounced the third ragland that's right handed.

991
01:47:30,400 --> 01:47:40,400
Everybody down here talking so much about the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/washington-football-team/1971/overview/>Washington Redskins</a> I say Redskins all the time and this town is alive with Redskin Tom.

992
01:47:40,400 --> 01:47:55,400
Stottle Myer comes to the belt he checks Mason deals bounce the shortstop should be to Michael in over the clock for one back to first off the bag but alone picks it up and stays on the bag and a double play 64 to 32 outs now here in the seven.

993
01:47:55,400 --> 01:48:05,400
And <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/don-mincher/>Don Mincher</a> has been announced as a battler for Rittleberger.

994
01:48:05,400 --> 01:48:20,400
Stottle Myer out of trouble as he gets ragland to bounce into two and we're looking now at <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/don-mincher/>Don Mincher</a> a big left handed hitting first baseman of course remember I think that last time he pinched it against the Yankees with the bases loaded in the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/stadiums/yankee-stadium/>Yankee Stadium</a>.

995
01:48:20,400 --> 01:48:25,400
Grand Slam Yes sir.

996
01:48:25,400 --> 01:48:27,400
A chance at a Grand Slam right here though.

997
01:48:27,400 --> 01:48:29,400
Nobody on two outs.

998
01:48:29,400 --> 01:48:38,400
For the last half the seventh Yankees lead six three.

999
01:48:38,400 --> 01:48:40,400
Mentor is leading this team.

1000
01:48:40,400 --> 01:48:45,400
The <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a> and hitting

1001
01:48:45,400 --> 01:48:47,400
thick left handers batting 280.

1002
01:48:47,400 --> 01:49:12,400
Our deals to him popped up and short center field Mercer's in Michael's out Michael's in there and then he grabs it with one handed and short center field that's a third out for the senators as mentor batting for Rittleberger pops to Michael for Washington in the seventh no runs on one hit no Yankee errors and nobody left on base at the end of seven full the Yankees six senators three.

1003
01:49:12,400 --> 01:49:28,400
Did you know that you can cut moving costs by 50% or more with a U-Haul rental truck or trailer over six million families every year move with you all because there's a size and a type is just right for a one room apartment or for the biggest house in town.

1004
01:49:28,400 --> 01:49:44,400
And if you're moving out of town, you can rent it here and leave it with a dealer where you're going.

1005
01:49:44,400 --> 01:50:13,400
There's a side that's loaded with helpful hints for self movers. So stop in for your free copy and make your moving job a lot easier. Beat the high cost of moving do it yourself with you haul skips Texaco 151 Grand Street Albany Mayfair Texaco 261 Saratoga Road Glenville and Airways rent a car 660 Albany Shaker Road Airport exit at the Northway or consult the yellow pages for the you haul dealer nearest you.

1006
01:50:13,400 --> 01:50:19,400
So like <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/casey-cox/>Casey Cox</a> is going to be the new pitcher for Washington.

1007
01:50:19,400 --> 01:50:24,400
He will be the fourth pitcher on the mound for the Senator selling back started.

1008
01:50:24,400 --> 01:50:31,400
Lynn glad I came on Danny Rittle burger and Fox and glad and Rittle burger to left handers they got Mercer.

1009
01:50:31,400 --> 01:50:36,400
They came on and face Bobby Mercer. Now Bobby will be the fourth hitter in this inning.

1010
01:50:36,400 --> 01:50:49,400
And tomorrow we'll lead it off the eighth and Clark Taurus and then Mercer so Mercer will get to see a left hander for the first time a right hander you'll get to see a right hander for the first time tonight.

1011
01:50:49,400 --> 01:50:56,400
Bobby let's see so far is over to these bounces short line to the first base and he's walked twice.

1012
01:50:56,400 --> 01:51:06,400
He needs a base hit. Yes he does. This would be kind of a night if Bobby had had a hot night coming up five times possibly six in the ballgame.

1013
01:51:06,400 --> 01:51:12,400
But as we said coming into the series he had to get seven for twelve to beat out Oliva.

1014
01:51:12,400 --> 01:51:19,400
Well he needs a hit here at least to be what two for six and then he'll have to depend on jumping on somebody tomorrow for four or five.

1015
01:51:19,400 --> 01:51:26,400
And there's a possibility that if the right hander would pitch out how they're just might lead off with him off. Yes they've done it with <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/willie-mays/>Willie Mays</a>.

1016
01:51:26,400 --> 01:51:33,400
They've done it with other ballplayers who had a shot.

1017
01:51:33,400 --> 01:51:38,400
And Dick Boseman is scheduled to pitch he's a right hander. He's pretty tough though.

1018
01:51:38,400 --> 01:51:48,400
Right now though it's Mel Sotomayor leading off for the Yankees as we go into the eighth Mel and the Yankees have a 6-3 lead.

1019
01:51:48,400 --> 01:51:54,400
You see Bill for some reason <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/harry-walker/>Harry Walker</a> did not pitch that kid against the Dodgers last night.

1020
01:51:54,400 --> 01:51:59,400
He went with Wilson. Wilson right. Just a three hitter. Strong game.

1021
01:51:59,400 --> 01:52:06,400
Pitch to Sotomayor is a called strike. Mel has been up three times. He's struck out twice. He's bounced a third.

1022
01:52:06,400 --> 01:52:11,400
Cox a new pitcher is making his 54th appearance on the mound for Washington.

1023
01:52:11,400 --> 01:52:17,400
Curve balls cut on a miss no balls and two strikes. Casey a big tall right hander.

1024
01:52:17,400 --> 01:52:23,400
He's won five games and lost seven. He has seven saves.

1025
01:52:23,400 --> 01:52:34,400
Down low a ball and two strikes on Sotomayor on deck Horace Clark.

1026
01:52:34,400 --> 01:52:46,400
Cox does not like the sign. Now he's ready. Over the head pumps deals. Outside two and two. Two balls and two strikes.

1027
01:52:46,400 --> 01:52:57,400
A few shortens up for Mel. Here's a two-two pitch. Last ball foul straight back out of play. Still two and two.

1028
01:52:57,400 --> 01:53:07,400
Sotomayor has 11 runs batted in with one home run. See that's seven for his career right. Seven career home runs.

1029
01:53:07,400 --> 01:53:16,400
Fine athlete. Here's a two-two pitch to Mel. Curve ball cut on and miss. Struck him out. One away in the eighth.

1030
01:53:16,400 --> 01:53:23,400
Cox picks up his first strikeout. The first man he's faced. Here's Horace Clark. Clark's two for four with a run score.

1031
01:53:23,400 --> 01:53:32,400
He's struck out single to center bounce a third and doubled to left field. He scored that run in the sixth.

1032
01:53:32,400 --> 01:53:40,400
Front is the first and third. White had a chance to pick up his 18th sacrifice fly of the year. He bounced into a four-stop.

1033
01:53:40,400 --> 01:53:48,400
Got the run in. And Roy picked up his 84th RBI of the year. Hart-Fats left-handed now.

1034
01:53:48,400 --> 01:53:55,400
Takes a fastball on the inside corner. Call strike. Here's where the third baseman shortens up.

1035
01:53:55,400 --> 01:54:00,400
Now Unser the center fielder moves toward left center. Howard straight away and left.

1036
01:54:00,400 --> 01:54:06,400
Oh one pitch. Line. Basehead. Right center field. Just over Ragland's head.

1037
01:54:06,400 --> 01:54:11,400
Halt around first. He's going to try for two. The throw. The slide. He's out.

1038
01:54:11,400 --> 01:54:18,400
That burrow is showing a fine army. He threw that ball right on the bag and the shortstop.

1039
01:54:18,400 --> 01:54:25,400
Mason put it on a sliding Horace Clark. That from nine to six.

1040
01:54:25,400 --> 01:54:30,400
Give Clark a single to right field. He's thrown out nine to six. They're two outs now.

1041
01:54:30,400 --> 01:54:37,400
Right hander <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/rusty-torres/>Rusty Torres</a>.

1042
01:54:37,400 --> 01:54:42,400
Halt is let's see three for five though. That'll bring in <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/rusty-torres/>Rusty Torres</a>.

1043
01:54:42,400 --> 01:54:48,400
Torres for the first time tonight will bat left-handed against Cox.

1044
01:54:48,400 --> 01:54:55,400
Rusty's one for four. See what he does here against <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/casey-cox/>Casey Cox</a>. Outfield plays him straight away.

1045
01:54:55,400 --> 01:54:59,400
Inside a ball. They're going to try to keep the ball in on him.

1046
01:54:59,400 --> 01:55:04,400
Rusty's bounce the shorty. Single to left. Got on on an error and scored overrun in the fifth.

1047
01:55:04,400 --> 01:55:08,400
And he's bounced the second.

1048
01:55:08,400 --> 01:55:14,400
One-oh pitch. Slow curve misses outside. Two balls and no strikes. Two outs. Nobody on.

1049
01:55:14,400 --> 01:55:19,400
We're in the eighth. The Yankees lead six-three.

1050
01:55:19,400 --> 01:55:23,400
Yankees with six runs on 11 hits. Washington three-oh-one-nine.

1051
01:55:23,400 --> 01:55:31,400
This is bounce the short on one hop. The Mason throws the first. They've got him.

1052
01:55:31,400 --> 01:55:37,400
So with the Yankees in the eighth, no runs on one hit. No errors and nobody left on base.

1053
01:55:37,400 --> 01:55:45,400
At the end of seven and a half, the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/new-york-yankees/1971/overview/>New York Yankees</a> six, the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a> three.

1054
01:55:45,400 --> 01:55:49,400
Here's a chance for baseball fans to get on one of the best deals of the season.

1055
01:55:49,400 --> 01:55:55,400
Participating ARCO dealers will give you an order form to obtain 12 major league baseball stars for just one dollar.

1056
01:55:55,400 --> 01:55:59,400
12 big 8x10 autographed color photographs of your favorite Yankee players.

1057
01:55:59,400 --> 01:56:03,400
You can also get Red Sox, Pirates, or Phillies players.

1058
01:56:03,400 --> 01:56:07,400
Plus their biographies, averages, and other nitty-gritty information.

1059
01:56:07,400 --> 01:56:13,400
Anybody who ever saved a favorite match for a lucky pair of spikes knows baseball memories are some of the best to look back on.

1060
01:56:13,400 --> 01:56:16,400
And nothing is better than photographs of your heroes.

1061
01:56:16,400 --> 01:56:20,400
Isn't it time you started your kid out with a collection of stars he cheers for?

1062
01:56:20,400 --> 01:56:25,400
They're great for framing, perfect for putting a touch of baseball in a dental rumpus room.

1063
01:56:25,400 --> 01:56:32,400
Kids love them in the bedroom. And years from now it'll be fun finding them tucked away in the attic with the rest of your baseball memories.

1064
01:56:32,400 --> 01:56:36,400
Drive down to your nearby ARCO dealer and ask for your order forms.

1065
01:56:36,400 --> 01:56:41,400
Your Red Sox, Yankee, Pirates, or Phillies photographs will be mailed directly to you.

1066
01:56:41,400 --> 01:56:48,400
Center fielder, Della Unsure will lead off for Washington.

1067
01:56:48,400 --> 01:56:53,400
And the last of the eighth, Unsure, is one for three. He's fouled out to Hanson at third.

1068
01:56:53,400 --> 01:56:58,400
He's lined Clark at second. And he's single to right field. He bats left handed.

1069
01:56:58,400 --> 01:57:01,400
Hanson shortens up on him at third. So does Alouette first.

1070
01:57:01,400 --> 01:57:08,400
First pitch is bounced toward shortstop. Michael after hurrying on the grass, quick flip, got him by a step.

1071
01:57:08,400 --> 01:57:14,400
I believe Michael. Michael can throw off balance as well as any shortstop in the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/leagues/AL/1971/overview/>American League</a>.

1072
01:57:14,400 --> 01:57:18,400
And make accurate throws.

1073
01:57:18,400 --> 01:57:22,400
So Unsure, a fast runner is out by a step six to three.

1074
01:57:22,400 --> 01:57:24,400
And Toby Harrell will step in.

1075
01:57:24,400 --> 01:57:32,400
Harris three for three. This young fella has been swinging the bat extremely well for Washington over the last few days.

1076
01:57:32,400 --> 01:57:35,400
In this ball game he's three for three. All singles.

1077
01:57:35,400 --> 01:57:39,400
Scored two runs. And he's stolen the base. Stottlemeyer deals to him.

1078
01:57:39,400 --> 01:57:43,400
Gets the outside corner with a sidearm fastball.

1079
01:57:43,400 --> 01:57:49,400
Hanson even with the bag at third base. Upfield straight away. So is the infield.

1080
01:57:49,400 --> 01:57:56,400
Mel looking at it gives. Humpson deals the O-1 pitch. Misses outside a slider. One and one.

1081
01:57:56,400 --> 01:58:04,400
Larry Bittner on deck. Yankees lead six-three. We're in the last of the eight.

1082
01:58:04,400 --> 01:58:09,400
There's a one-one pitch down here. Sidearm fastball swung on and missed.

1083
01:58:09,400 --> 01:58:15,400
One and two. That ball's sunk.

1084
01:58:15,400 --> 01:58:21,400
Now Hanson backs up at third.

1085
01:58:21,400 --> 01:58:26,400
Harris stands away from the plate. He has to go in on the ball. Chokes up.

1086
01:58:26,400 --> 01:58:29,400
One-two pitch. Sidearm fouled off.

1087
01:58:29,400 --> 01:58:35,400
Sidearm curveball. Harrell just got a piece of it that was on the outside corner he had to reach for.

1088
01:58:35,400 --> 01:58:51,400
Still a ball and two strikes.

1089
01:58:51,400 --> 01:58:55,400
Mel takes a long look at Gibbs now. Over the head. Down.

1090
01:58:55,400 --> 01:58:58,400
Sidearm slider. Rod bounced right back at Stottlemeyer. He gloves it.

1091
01:58:58,400 --> 01:59:05,400
Goes to a Luit first base and they're two outs.

1092
01:59:05,400 --> 01:59:10,400
Stottlemeyer has taken control of this ballgame after the third inning.

1093
01:59:10,400 --> 01:59:14,400
Washington picked up two runs in the third to take a three-to-one lead.

1094
01:59:14,400 --> 01:59:18,400
Yankees picked up four in the fifth and add another one in the sixth. They lead six-three.

1095
01:59:18,400 --> 01:59:22,400
Stottlemeyer has blanked the Senators since the third inning.

1096
01:59:22,400 --> 01:59:28,400
Here's Bittner. He bats left-handed. Takes on the outside corner. Called strike.

1097
01:59:28,400 --> 01:59:34,400
Bittner is one for three with an RBI and he scored a run.

1098
01:59:34,400 --> 01:59:40,400
Next pitch is down low. One and one. Two outs, nobody on. We're the last of the eight.

1099
01:59:40,400 --> 01:59:45,400
Sellers fly to left field. Bittner has. He's single. He's also bounced into a double play.

1100
01:59:45,400 --> 01:59:48,400
They play him straight away.

1101
01:59:48,400 --> 01:59:52,400
One-one pitch. Bounced right back to Stottlemeyer. He knocks it down.

1102
01:59:52,400 --> 01:59:56,400
Grabs it. Throws to Alou and that's it.

1103
01:59:56,400 --> 01:59:58,400
For Larry Bittner and that's it for the Senators.

1104
01:59:58,400 --> 02:00:02,400
In the eighth, three men up and three men down. They didn't get a ball out of the infield.

1105
02:00:02,400 --> 02:00:08,400
And at the end of eighth, the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/new-york-yankees/1971/overview/>New York Yankees</a> sixth, the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a> three.

1106
02:00:08,400 --> 02:00:18,400
them band.

1107
02:00:18,400 --> 02:00:33,400
The

1108
02:00:33,400 --> 02:00:35,960
When they say Schaefer has flavor that never fades,

1109
02:00:35,960 --> 02:00:38,280
have a couple of tall frosty cold glasses

1110
02:00:38,280 --> 02:00:39,640
and see for yourself.

1111
02:00:39,640 --> 02:00:42,240
You'll find that first cold Schaefer tastes great,

1112
02:00:42,240 --> 02:00:44,320
but it's the second glass and the third

1113
02:00:44,320 --> 02:00:46,000
that'll really make you a believer.

1114
02:00:46,000 --> 02:00:48,800
They'll show you how Schaefer stays consistently bright

1115
02:00:48,800 --> 02:00:50,960
and rewarding glass after glass.

1116
02:00:50,960 --> 02:00:53,680
And that's when you'll want to switch to Schaefer.

1117
02:00:55,680 --> 02:00:58,840
Schaefer is the one that'll help

1118
02:00:58,840 --> 02:01:01,600
when you're having more than one.

1119
02:01:01,600 --> 02:01:03,600
The one that'll make you a believer.

1120
02:01:03,600 --> 02:01:05,600
The one that'll make you a believer.

1121
02:01:08,600 --> 02:01:10,600
Center fielder Bobby Mercer.

1122
02:01:17,600 --> 02:01:20,600
Bobby Mercer now will be the batter for the Yankees.

1123
02:01:21,600 --> 02:01:23,600
Bobby, for the first time tonight,

1124
02:01:23,600 --> 02:01:25,600
gets a chance to hit against a right-hander.

1125
02:01:25,600 --> 02:01:27,600
Jim Schellenbach started.

1126
02:01:28,600 --> 02:01:29,600
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/paul-lindblad/>Paul Lindblad</a> came on,

1127
02:01:29,600 --> 02:01:31,600
and Denny Riedelberger, all left-handers.

1128
02:01:31,600 --> 02:01:32,600
Now it's <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/casey-cox/>Casey Cox</a>.

1129
02:01:32,600 --> 02:01:34,600
Cox came on last, Denny.

1130
02:01:36,600 --> 02:01:39,600
Mercer is 0 for 2.

1131
02:01:39,600 --> 02:01:41,600
Spouts the short, a line to the first baseman,

1132
02:01:41,600 --> 02:01:42,600
a walk twice.

1133
02:01:43,600 --> 02:01:45,600
Pitch to him, outside of ball.

1134
02:01:45,600 --> 02:01:50,600
Cox knows that Bobby's trying to get this batting title,

1135
02:01:50,600 --> 02:01:53,600
and he isn't going to give him much of anything good to hit.

1136
02:01:53,600 --> 02:01:55,600
One old pitch now.

1137
02:01:55,600 --> 02:01:57,600
Line drive, base hits, center field.

1138
02:01:57,600 --> 02:02:00,600
Mercer, 1 for 3, and he keeps his hopes alive.

1139
02:02:00,600 --> 02:02:03,600
A 4 for 4 or a 5 for 5 tomorrow might do it.

1140
02:02:03,600 --> 02:02:05,600
Bobby on at first base with his first base

1141
02:02:05,600 --> 02:02:07,600
at the end of the afternoon, or the evening.

1142
02:02:07,600 --> 02:02:09,600
And Bobby now at 3.31.

1143
02:02:12,600 --> 02:02:14,600
That'll bring in <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a>.

1144
02:02:15,600 --> 02:02:18,600
White's added a couple of put-outs tonight,

1145
02:02:18,600 --> 02:02:21,600
so he now has 307 without an error.

1146
02:02:23,600 --> 02:02:25,600
Roy batting left-handed against Cox.

1147
02:02:25,600 --> 02:02:27,600
Roy 1 for 3 with a run score.

1148
02:02:27,600 --> 02:02:28,600
Mercer leads.

1149
02:02:28,600 --> 02:02:30,600
Ball's down low.

1150
02:02:32,600 --> 02:02:35,600
Roy singled and scored a run in the second inning.

1151
02:02:35,600 --> 02:02:38,600
He flied to center, walked, bounced into a foresot,

1152
02:02:38,600 --> 02:02:40,600
but drove in a run in the sixth.

1153
02:02:40,600 --> 02:02:42,600
Cox comes to the belt.

1154
02:02:42,600 --> 02:02:43,600
Pitch to White.

1155
02:02:43,600 --> 02:02:45,600
He's doing down the right field line.

1156
02:02:45,600 --> 02:02:46,600
It's curving foul.

1157
02:02:46,600 --> 02:02:48,600
Just missed.

1158
02:02:48,600 --> 02:02:50,600
Mercer all the way over third.

1159
02:02:50,600 --> 02:02:51,600
He'll have to go back.

1160
02:02:51,600 --> 02:02:54,600
White all the way down the first baseline will come back.

1161
02:02:54,600 --> 02:02:56,600
That ball hook at the last moment.

1162
02:02:56,600 --> 02:02:59,600
Missed the foul line down right field by about two feet.

1163
02:02:59,600 --> 02:03:01,600
Jim Odom and I'm far hustling all the way down there.

1164
02:03:01,600 --> 02:03:03,600
Had a good look at it.

1165
02:03:03,600 --> 02:03:05,600
Wave the ball foul.

1166
02:03:07,600 --> 02:03:09,600
Mercer just getting back to first.

1167
02:03:09,600 --> 02:03:10,600
Yankees lead 6-3.

1168
02:03:10,600 --> 02:03:13,600
We're in the last, top of the ninth, last inning.

1169
02:03:14,600 --> 02:03:16,600
White chokes up just a little bit on a U-1.

1170
02:03:16,600 --> 02:03:18,600
That's a thick-handled bat.

1171
02:03:18,600 --> 02:03:20,600
Cox checks it. Sets.

1172
02:03:20,600 --> 02:03:21,600
Feels a 1-1 pitch.

1173
02:03:21,600 --> 02:03:22,600
Bounces short.

1174
02:03:22,600 --> 02:03:24,600
Over as Mason goes, a second for one throw back.

1175
02:03:24,600 --> 02:03:26,600
The first won't be in time.

1176
02:03:27,600 --> 02:03:30,600
Mason shows a lot of range for young fellow Phil Rosito.

1177
02:03:30,600 --> 02:03:31,600
He sure does.

1178
02:03:31,600 --> 02:03:35,600
He got over there in a hurry because he was playing <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/roy-white/>Roy White</a> over near the back.

1179
02:03:35,600 --> 02:03:38,600
And that kid, Ragland, turned that ball over real well.

1180
02:03:40,600 --> 02:03:41,600
So with one out, White at first.

1181
02:03:41,600 --> 02:03:43,600
And Philippe Ballou steps in.

1182
02:03:43,600 --> 02:03:46,600
Ballou is 2-4 with two runs batted in.

1183
02:03:46,600 --> 02:03:49,600
Philippe Joldo's two runs back in the fifth with a single.

1184
02:03:53,600 --> 02:03:55,600
Ballou batting right-handed against Cox.

1185
02:03:55,600 --> 02:03:56,600
White leads from first.

1186
02:03:56,600 --> 02:03:57,600
Pitch to Ballou.

1187
02:03:57,600 --> 02:03:59,600
Almost hits him inside.

1188
02:04:01,600 --> 02:04:06,600
So it looks like if Solomire gets the Senators out here in the ninth,

1189
02:04:06,600 --> 02:04:08,600
Mercer will be 1-3.

1190
02:04:09,600 --> 02:04:11,600
And he'll still be...

1191
02:04:11,600 --> 02:04:15,600
Oh, five and some percentage points behind <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/tony-oliva/>Tony Oliva</a>.

1192
02:04:15,600 --> 02:04:16,600
Cox stretches.

1193
02:04:16,600 --> 02:04:18,600
Pitch to Allou.

1194
02:04:18,600 --> 02:04:20,600
Loop the right field after it is Burroughs.

1195
02:04:20,600 --> 02:04:21,600
He's not going to get it.

1196
02:04:21,600 --> 02:04:23,600
White will stop at second base.

1197
02:04:23,600 --> 02:04:26,600
And Philippe now picks up his third base hit.

1198
02:04:26,600 --> 02:04:29,600
And this is the New York Yankee baseball network.

1199
02:04:29,600 --> 02:04:31,600
Let's pause for station identification.

1200
02:04:33,600 --> 02:04:35,600
This is WGY.

1201
02:04:35,600 --> 02:04:38,600
The WGY is the first team to play in the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/new-york-yankees/1971/overview/>New York Yankees</a>.

1202
02:04:38,600 --> 02:04:41,600
This is WGY.

1203
02:04:41,600 --> 02:04:44,600
Radio 81, Schenectady, New York.

1204
02:04:51,600 --> 02:04:53,600
So Philippe Allou with his third base hit.

1205
02:04:53,600 --> 02:04:55,600
He's three for five tonight.

1206
02:04:55,600 --> 02:04:56,600
And Ron Hanson steps in.

1207
02:04:58,600 --> 02:05:00,600
Three for five with two RBIs.

1208
02:05:00,600 --> 02:05:02,600
Hanson has a run batted in.

1209
02:05:02,600 --> 02:05:04,600
He is one for four.

1210
02:05:06,600 --> 02:05:07,600
Allou now hitting 286.

1211
02:05:07,600 --> 02:05:09,600
So he's gained three points.

1212
02:05:12,600 --> 02:05:14,600
Philippe also has 69 runs batted in.

1213
02:05:17,600 --> 02:05:18,600
White leads from second.

1214
02:05:18,600 --> 02:05:19,600
Allou from first.

1215
02:05:19,600 --> 02:05:20,600
We're in the ninth.

1216
02:05:20,600 --> 02:05:22,600
Yankees have the lead, 6-3.

1217
02:05:22,600 --> 02:05:24,600
Cox comes to the belt.

1218
02:05:24,600 --> 02:05:26,600
Sets, deals, and sides.

1219
02:05:28,600 --> 02:05:29,600
Fastball.

1220
02:05:33,600 --> 02:05:35,600
Bednar is at first for Washington.

1221
02:05:35,600 --> 02:05:37,600
Bagland at second.

1222
02:05:37,600 --> 02:05:38,600
Mason at short.

1223
02:05:38,600 --> 02:05:40,600
Carra down at third.

1224
02:05:40,600 --> 02:05:42,600
1-0 pitch to Hanson.

1225
02:05:42,600 --> 02:05:43,600
Bounce is short.

1226
02:05:43,600 --> 02:05:44,600
This might be two.

1227
02:05:44,600 --> 02:05:46,600
Mason will take himself, touch a second for one.

1228
02:05:46,600 --> 02:05:47,600
Back to first, double play.

1229
02:05:47,600 --> 02:05:50,600
Hanson bounces into a double play.

1230
02:05:50,600 --> 02:05:52,600
6-6 to three.

1231
02:05:52,600 --> 02:05:54,600
That's it for the Yankees in the ninth inning.

1232
02:05:54,600 --> 02:05:55,600
No runs.

1233
02:05:55,600 --> 02:05:56,600
Two hits.

1234
02:05:56,600 --> 02:05:57,600
No errors.

1235
02:05:57,600 --> 02:05:59,600
The man left on base.

1236
02:05:59,600 --> 02:06:03,600
At the end of eight and a half, the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/new-york-yankees/1971/overview/>New York Yankees</a> sixth.

1237
02:06:03,600 --> 02:06:05,600
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a>, three.

1238
02:06:05,600 --> 02:06:10,600
One of the nice things about owning a car is that you can travel whenever you get the urge.

1239
02:06:10,600 --> 02:06:15,600
To the beach, the mountains, or just to the store for the daily necessities.

1240
02:06:15,600 --> 02:06:18,600
Wherever you drive, you'll be burning gasoline.

1241
02:06:18,600 --> 02:06:20,600
And you may be burning more than you should.

1242
02:06:20,600 --> 02:06:24,600
One reason is that your carburetor may not be clean enough.

1243
02:06:24,600 --> 02:06:28,600
There may be deposits that can cause your car to waste gas and cost you mileage.

1244
02:06:28,600 --> 02:06:31,600
If this seems to be happening to you, in other words,

1245
02:06:31,600 --> 02:06:33,600
if you're not satisfied with the performance you're getting,

1246
02:06:33,600 --> 02:06:36,600
then you should know about Arco Supreme gasoline.

1247
02:06:36,600 --> 02:06:41,600
Arco Supreme helps keep deposits from clogging the air passages of your engine.

1248
02:06:41,600 --> 02:06:46,600
Deposits that can cause your car to waste gasoline and cause you, of course, to lose mileage.

1249
02:06:46,600 --> 02:06:51,600
So if you think you're not getting the mileage you should, try a tank full of Arco Supreme.

1250
02:06:51,600 --> 02:06:55,600
You'll find Arco Supreme gasoline at any Arco station.

1251
02:06:55,600 --> 02:07:01,600
Now you may not get that much more mileage on it, but sometimes a little more is enough.

1252
02:07:05,600 --> 02:07:09,600
Well, hundo, <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-howard/>Frank Howard</a> will lead off for Washington in the last of the night.

1253
02:07:13,600 --> 02:07:16,600
Howard is two for three with two runs batted in.

1254
02:07:16,600 --> 02:07:19,600
Stained with a left and drove in a run in the first inning.

1255
02:07:19,600 --> 02:07:21,600
And the same thing in the third.

1256
02:07:21,600 --> 02:07:24,600
Bounced the first baseman in the sixth.

1257
02:07:24,600 --> 02:07:26,600
And he gets quite a hand.

1258
02:07:26,600 --> 02:07:28,600
He gets a standing ovation here.

1259
02:07:28,600 --> 02:07:32,600
Howard, one of the few Washington players, quoted in the papers.

1260
02:07:32,600 --> 02:07:35,600
And Frank has said that he would stay here.

1261
02:07:35,600 --> 02:07:38,600
He wants to stay here. They should keep the team here.

1262
02:07:38,600 --> 02:07:42,600
He came up with several suggestions as to what he would do if he had this ball club.

1263
02:07:45,600 --> 02:07:48,600
First pitch to Howard's outside of ball.

1264
02:07:48,600 --> 02:07:51,600
Now some fans are around here with a banner. What's that banner say?

1265
02:07:51,600 --> 02:07:56,600
Oh, man's running around the banner that says <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/san-diego-padres/1971/overview/>San Diego Padres</a>.

1266
02:07:56,600 --> 02:07:58,600
So that's part of the cheering.

1267
02:07:58,600 --> 02:08:00,600
Howard takes too low.

1268
02:08:03,600 --> 02:08:05,600
He gets over on our left to try to tear the stadium down.

1269
02:08:05,600 --> 02:08:07,600
He doesn't want anybody to come here.

1270
02:08:09,600 --> 02:08:11,600
This is hit in the air in the center field.

1271
02:08:11,600 --> 02:08:13,600
Mercer's after it. He calls white off.

1272
02:08:13,600 --> 02:08:15,600
Underton has it for the first half.

1273
02:08:15,600 --> 02:08:19,600
So Howard flies the Mercer in the center field for the first time tonight.

1274
02:08:21,600 --> 02:08:23,600
And Jeff Borrows is the hitter.

1275
02:08:23,600 --> 02:08:25,600
Young right fielder is 0 for 3.

1276
02:08:25,600 --> 02:08:28,600
He's struck out, flies to left and flies to right field.

1277
02:08:28,600 --> 02:08:30,600
That's right handed.

1278
02:08:36,600 --> 02:08:40,600
And a fan standing up on the right side behind the center to dugout.

1279
02:08:40,600 --> 02:08:42,600
<a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/san-diego-padres/1971/overview/>San Diego Padres</a>.

1280
02:08:42,600 --> 02:08:45,600
Padres banner.

1281
02:08:46,600 --> 02:08:48,600
Sotomayor misses outside to Borrows.

1282
02:08:51,600 --> 02:08:53,600
Melnod's agreement like the sign.

1283
02:08:53,600 --> 02:08:54,600
One old pitch.

1284
02:08:54,600 --> 02:08:55,600
And on the ground a shortstop.

1285
02:08:55,600 --> 02:08:56,600
Michael takes a long hop.

1286
02:08:56,600 --> 02:08:59,600
He goes to a Lue at first and there are two outs.

1287
02:09:04,600 --> 02:09:06,600
That's the 12th put out.

1288
02:09:06,600 --> 02:09:09,600
For the 12th ball that's been hit on the ground against Sotomayor.

1289
02:09:09,600 --> 02:09:11,600
He's got a little bit of a lead.

1290
02:09:11,600 --> 02:09:13,600
He's got a little bit of a lead against Sotomayor.

1291
02:09:13,600 --> 02:09:17,600
He's as I said he's controlled this ballgame since the fourth inning.

1292
02:09:17,600 --> 02:09:19,600
He has blanked Washington.

1293
02:09:19,600 --> 02:09:21,600
Ever since the third.

1294
02:09:23,600 --> 02:09:25,600
And he has two outs.

1295
02:09:25,600 --> 02:09:26,600
He's a man away.

1296
02:09:26,600 --> 02:09:27,600
Phil Fay the catcher.

1297
02:09:27,600 --> 02:09:29,600
0 for 3.

1298
02:09:29,600 --> 02:09:31,600
He bats left handed.

1299
02:09:31,600 --> 02:09:33,600
Lines one foul on the left side.

1300
02:09:33,600 --> 02:09:35,600
That'll be out of play.

1301
02:09:35,600 --> 02:09:37,600
Fay is bouncing short.

1302
02:09:37,600 --> 02:09:38,600
Bounce a second.

1303
02:09:38,600 --> 02:09:40,600
He flies to right field.

1304
02:09:40,600 --> 02:09:42,600
Yankees lead 6 3.

1305
02:09:44,600 --> 02:09:46,600
Washington has been tough on the Yankees all year.

1306
02:09:46,600 --> 02:09:48,600
There's one.

1307
02:09:48,600 --> 02:09:51,600
This ball's line fouled again on the right side.

1308
02:09:59,600 --> 02:10:01,600
Senators have beaten the Yankees.

1309
02:10:02,600 --> 02:10:04,600
11 of 16 ballgames.

1310
02:10:04,600 --> 02:10:06,600
Here's the 0-2 pitch now.

1311
02:10:06,600 --> 02:10:07,600
High.

1312
02:10:07,600 --> 02:10:08,600
1 and 2.

1313
02:10:08,600 --> 02:10:09,600
Too high.

1314
02:10:09,600 --> 02:10:12,600
Sotomayor's looking for his 23rd victory.

1315
02:10:12,600 --> 02:10:14,600
A lifetime against Washington.

1316
02:10:14,600 --> 02:10:17,600
And his 128th career win overall.

1317
02:10:17,600 --> 02:10:19,600
That was 1-1-27 in the last 98.

1318
02:10:19,600 --> 02:10:20,600
One pitch away now.

1319
02:10:20,600 --> 02:10:22,600
The 1-2 pitch to Fay.

1320
02:10:22,600 --> 02:10:23,600
Bounce right back to Sotomayor.

1321
02:10:23,600 --> 02:10:24,600
This should be it.

1322
02:10:24,600 --> 02:10:26,600
Now it goes to Alou and that's it.

1323
02:10:26,600 --> 02:10:28,600
On a comebacker.

1324
02:10:28,600 --> 02:10:30,600
No runs.

1325
02:10:30,600 --> 02:10:34,600
No hits.

1326
02:10:34,600 --> 02:10:36,600
No errors and no men left on base in the night for Washington.

1327
02:10:36,600 --> 02:10:38,600
The <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/new-york-yankees/1971/overview/>New York Yankees</a> win this ballgame.

1328
02:10:38,600 --> 02:10:40,600
6-3.

1329
02:10:40,600 --> 02:10:42,600
And they did it.

1330
02:10:42,600 --> 02:10:44,600
On six runs on 13 hits and two errors.

1331
02:10:44,600 --> 02:10:46,600
Washington three runs on nine hits and one error.

1332
02:10:46,600 --> 02:10:48,600
The winner is Sotomayor here in the background.

1333
02:10:48,600 --> 02:10:50,600
Saw Mel was 116 games in the last 12.

1334
02:10:50,600 --> 02:10:52,600
The loser is the Yankees.

1335
02:10:52,600 --> 02:10:54,600
The Yankees are the Yankees.

1336
02:10:54,600 --> 02:10:56,600
The Yankees are the Yankees.

1337
02:10:56,600 --> 02:10:58,600
The Yankees are the Yankees.

1338
02:10:58,600 --> 02:11:00,600
The Yankees are the Yankees.

1339
02:11:00,600 --> 02:11:02,600
The Yankees won three games in the last 12.

1340
02:11:02,600 --> 02:11:04,600
The loser, the left-hander, Frank Schellenbach.

1341
02:11:04,600 --> 02:11:06,600
Who is now three and 11.

1342
02:11:06,600 --> 02:11:08,600
So the Yankees break that Schellenbach, Jinkx.

1343
02:11:08,600 --> 02:11:10,600
And let's see.

1344
02:11:10,600 --> 02:11:12,600
They go now three and three against the left-hander.

1345
02:11:12,600 --> 02:11:14,600
The backers won three ballgames all against the Yankees.

1346
02:11:14,600 --> 02:11:16,600
Oh, he may be in trouble next year.

1347
02:11:16,600 --> 02:11:18,600
He can't beat the Yankees.

1348
02:11:18,600 --> 02:11:20,600
He ends up three and three.

1349
02:11:20,600 --> 02:11:22,600
If Mel Sotomayor wins in 16.

1350
02:11:22,600 --> 02:11:24,600
So the Yankees win this ballgame down in

1351
02:11:24,600 --> 02:11:26,600
Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium.

1352
02:11:26,600 --> 02:11:34,040
DC. I'm <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/bill-white/>Bill White</a> along with <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-messer/>Frank Messer</a> and <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/phil-rizzuto/>Phil Rizzuto</a> for our broadcast coordinator

1353
02:11:34,040 --> 02:11:40,720
Bill Kane and our engineer <a href=https://retroseasons.com/players/frank-steele/>Frank Steele</a> saying so long from Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium.

1354
02:11:40,720 --> 02:11:57,280
The score once again the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/new-york-yankees/1971/overview/>New York Yankees</a> 6 the <a href=https://retroseasons.com/teams/minnesota-twins/1971/overview/>Washington Senators</a> 3.
