2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:14,000
Coming up from Yankee Stadium, the Yankees and Indians are win by the Yankees, and they are once again the American League champions.

3
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:19,000
Right now, this is Pat Somerall inviting you to stay tuned for Yankee baseball.

4
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:24,000
This is WCBS and WCBS-FM, New York.

5
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:30,000
And right now, as we're ready to go, the next to the last day of the season, our national anthem.

6
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:54,000
The Yankee National Anthem.

7
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:29,000
The Yankee National Anthem.

8
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:40,000
In pregame festivities at the stadium today, Yogi Berra was presented the National Sports Award by the National Conference of Christians and Jews.

9
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:45,000
That ceremony has been concluded on the field. Downing warming up.

10
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:50,000
Getting ready to face Chico Simone, the first baseman, and the leadoff batter.

11
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:56,000
Al Downing has a record of 13-8 on the air. He's 1-0 against the Indians.

12
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:07,000
He's 4-0 lifetime against Cleveland. He's never lost to this ball club.

13
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:11,000
Howard catching. Pepitone at first. Richardson at second. Lins at short.

14
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:18,000
Boyer at third. In the outfield and left, it's Trash. Maris in center. Mantle in right.

15
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Now the throw to Bobby Richardson at second.

16
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:29,000
And we're ready to go. Chico Simone stepping in. The leadoff batter.

17
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Simone batting at 3-0-5. He has four home runs. 24 RBIs.

18
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:44,000
This can be the big one for the Yankees today. They can wrap it up with a victory this afternoon against the Indians.

19
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:54,000
All right, Al Downing into the windup. The first pitch is low and it's ball one.

20
00:02:54,000 --> 00:03:02,000
1-0 the count to Simone. Downing ready again. The pitch is outside 2-0 the count.

21
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:07,000
An absolutely clear, cloudless day here at Yankee Stadium.

22
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:14,000
The shadow is about 10 feet past the home plate area heading toward the third base side.

23
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:20,000
And cuts in between the batter and the pitcher. Now the pitch again is in there and it's strike one.

24
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:25,000
This makes it hard for the hitter at this point. He's looking into a bright background.

25
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:30,000
Sort of like you're in a tunnel looking out into the bright of the day.

26
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:45,000
Now the 2-1 pitch is outside 3-1. Today is the kind of a day where the famous Yankee field, left field rather, the Yankee left field, runs into a lot of problems.

27
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:51,000
Here's a 3-1 pitch. It's a strike call, 3-2.

28
00:03:51,000 --> 00:04:06,000
It's on days like this that the left fielder has most of the trouble that he may run into as far as the brightness is concerned and the sun problem.

29
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:13,000
First batter of the ball game, the 3-2 pitch to Simone is a drive to right field. Mantle breaking back toward the barrier.

30
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:23,000
He's got it under it and takes it. One away. Ball was not hit too far. Mantle had to run about 30 feet for it.

31
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:28,000
Now here's Dick Hauser, the shortstop, who's batting a.252.

32
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:34,000
Hauser with three home runs, 51 RBIs.

33
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:42,000
Hauser leads the, oh he doesn't, I was going to say he leads the Indians and stolen bases. He has 20, D'Avilio has 21.

34
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:49,000
The 1-0 pitch is low and it's ball one to Dick Hauser.

35
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:54,000
Now the next pitch by Downing is in there, 1-1.

36
00:04:54,000 --> 00:05:02,000
Ed Cranepool has homered in the third inning for the Mets with two on, so it's now an 8-4 ball game at St. Louis.

37
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:08,000
The 1-1 pitch is high, two balls and a strike.

38
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:14,000
Boy, they've had it out there. The Mets have scored in every inning, four in the first, one in the second, now three in the third.

39
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:20,000
They lead 8-4. Still batting in the top of the third.

40
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:35,000
Now the 2-1 pitch to Hauser is low, 3-1. Three balls, one strike.

41
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:39,000
One out, nobody on, just getting underway here, top of the first.

42
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,000
Indians and the Yankees.

43
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:47,000
Downing ready again, the 3-1 pitch is in there and it's strike two.

44
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:52,000
So Downing runs a count to three and two on the second batter.

45
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:58,000
Dick Hauser, right hand batter.

46
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,000
3-2 pitch is outside and he walked him.

47
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,000
Hauser draws a base on ball.

48
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:13,000
So the first baserunner of this ball game goes down to first and that will bring up Leon Wagner, the left fielder.

49
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:22,000
Wagner, the big power man for the Indians, has 31 homers, 99 RBIs, one short of the Magic 100 mark in the RBI department.

50
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:27,000
He's batting at 2-57.

51
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:31,000
He sets the pitch to, wag is strike right in there.

52
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:35,000
Old daddy wags as they call them.

53
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:40,000
He was acquired from the Los Angeles Angels, a good trade for the Indians.

54
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:45,000
Joe Adcock and Barry Lattman went to the Angels for Wagner.

55
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:51,000
Here's the one strike pitch. It's swung on a miss, strike two.

56
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,000
Nothing and two, one out.

57
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:59,000
Hauser at first base, top of the first inning.

58
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:03,000
The Yankees have this one and one more tomorrow.

59
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:07,000
And that's all there is for the 1964 pennant race.

60
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:20,000
And the Yankees can wrap it up by winning one of these two games or by having Chicago lose one of their two with the Kansas City A's.

61
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,000
All right, Downing sets the two strike pitch, it's swung on a miss, strike three.

62
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:28,000
A blazing fastball around the letters.

63
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:37,000
Oh, Downing strikes out his first batter.

64
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:48,000
Downing, with the exception of Jack Chesborough, of the Yankees going way back, has struck out more batters than any other Yankee pitcher.

65
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:54,000
He's got 212 right now. Jack Chesborough struck out 240.

66
00:07:54,000 --> 00:08:00,000
There's a hopper over Downing's head, Lins to his left, up with a flip to Richardson in time for the force.

67
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:07,000
So Alves, get a high hopper over Downing's head to Lins, forcing Hauser at second.

68
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,000
And the side is retired.

69
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:21,000
After half-ending of play, the Indians nothing, the Yankees coming to the plate.

70
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:30,000
What's all this about tigers?

71
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:37,000
Well, it all started when research people of Humble Oil and Refining Company found out how to put a tiger in SO extra gasoline.

72
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:46,000
Of course, they call it the new power formula, but between you and me, it's a tiger.

73
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:53,000
New power formula SO extra lets you take off like a cat, keeps your engine purring smooth because it keeps it running clean.

74
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,000
Actually cleans the carburetor, helps restore lost power.

75
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:06,000
New cars stay new longer. Older cars can get a new lease on life with new power formula SO extra from Humble Oil and Refining Company.

76
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:15,000
So ask your SO dealer to one-cage that tiger for you. Just say, fill her up with SO extra.

77
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:37,000
Happy motoring.

78
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:47,000
Last half of the first inning, it'll be Phil Lins leading off for the Yankees. Lins batting a 2.47, five homers, 24 RBIs.

79
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:53,000
Mets lead the Cardinals, 8-4 after 2.5. St. Louis batting in the bottom of the third.

80
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:59,000
Keep you posted on that ballgame. It's a big one.

81
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,000
Cincinnati and the Phillies are idle today.

82
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:12,000
Now the pitch to Lins. It's in there. Strike one, Lee Stang, the right-hander.

83
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:20,000
Stang has a record of 7-13 this year, acquired from the Twins for Jim Mudcat Grant.

84
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:24,000
Curve ball, it's low, it's one-and-one.

85
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:31,000
Johnny Romano doing the catching. Chico Simone at first, Billy Moran at second, Dick Hauser at short, Max Alves at third.

86
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:37,000
In the outfield and left, it's Leon Wagner, Vic D'Avilio in center, Woody Held in right.

87
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:44,000
Lee Stang on the mound, he's into the windup. Here's the one-one pitch to Phil. Foul, pass Frank Crisetti down the third base side.

88
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:48,000
One ball, two strikes.

89
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:54,000
Jimmy Gleason coaching at first for the Yankees, Frank Crisetti at third.

90
00:10:54,000 --> 00:11:02,000
Beautiful day, gee, it is a picture day here for baseball. About 70 degrees, not a cloud in the sky.

91
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,000
The one-two pitch to Phil is hit in the right center. That ball's going to be in there.

92
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:14,000
D'Avilio, nice backhand to staff. Lins going for second and he's in there.

93
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:21,000
Phil Lins getting things underway with a double to right center.

94
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:30,000
The first batter to face Lee Stang gets on. Now that'll bring up Bobby Richardson.

95
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:35,000
D'Avilio had a little trouble breaking after he caught the ball.

96
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:41,000
And Lins, sensing this, took off for second base and slid in well ahead of the throw.

97
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:47,000
Alright, here's Richardson batting a 265, four homers, 49 RBI.

98
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:53,000
Bobby has been one of the Yankees who has been doing extremely well the last six weeks during their surge.

99
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:58,000
And he bunched one toward first. Stang has it, starts to go to third, changes his mind.

100
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:03,000
And he's safe at first base as Chico Simone was off the bat.

101
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:10,000
Bobby Richardson, with a burst of speed, got there ahead of Simone, although Simone had the ball.

102
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:16,000
But just didn't get a foot on the bag in time. He had to look to see where it was.

103
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:22,000
Now this can be excusable because Simone is normally an infielder by trade at second and short.

104
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:26,000
And he's played some outfield. He's not too used to first base.

105
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:31,000
Richardson is being credited with a base hit.

106
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:39,000
Bobby gets a hit, infield single. Lins has it third, nobody out. Roger Maris the batter.

107
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:48,000
Maris batting a 282. Swings and misses at a big curveball, strike one.

108
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:53,000
Simone had that ball and had to reach for that bag and couldn't find it.

109
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,000
Then by the time he looked and picked it up, Bobby had scampered across.

110
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:01,000
That could be a big play.

111
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:08,000
Stang ready again. He sets pitches. It's low in the dirt this time, one and one.

112
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:17,000
Phil Lins with a leadoff double is now at third. Bobby Richardson with an infield single at first base.

113
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:23,000
Last of the first inning, no score.

114
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:29,000
Stang gets a sign, checks the runners. The pitch is outside.

115
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:36,000
Two balls, one strike.

116
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:47,000
Max Alves playing very shallow for Maris at third base.

117
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:53,000
Stang sets the pitch to Roger, is in the dirt and gets by Romano, but only by about three feet.

118
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:57,000
Lins couldn't come in, so it's three and one.

119
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Lee Stang falling behind Roger Maris, count three balls, one strike with Maddell on deck.

120
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:27,000
Stang gets a sign from Romano. Richardson off first, Lins off third. The pitch to Maris is a half swing that's called ball four.

121
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:43,000
Johnny Rice said that Roger didn't go around, so the bases are loaded and here comes Maddell.

122
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:57,000
Mickey Maddell batting from the left side. He's hitting a 3-0-3, 35 home runs, 108 RBIs. Nobody out. Lins at third, Richardson at second, Maris at first.

123
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:12,000
Oh, the Yankees forcing the opportunities here. The runners are leading off, Stang into the windup. The pitch to Maddell is swung on and missed and it's strike one.

124
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:25,000
Lee Stang firing a fastball on the inside corner, right around the letters to Maddell.

125
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:50,000
Now the pitch to Maddell is popped up down the left field line. Digging for it is Leon Wagner. That ball dropped in there for a ground rule double.

126
00:15:50,000 --> 00:16:01,000
Mickey Maddell hitting a high pop fly down the left field line, landing about five feet fair and spinning off into the stands.

127
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:13,000
Scores Phil Lins and Bobby Richardson and the Yankees take a 2-0 lead. And that is RBI number 109 and 110 for Mickey Maddell.

128
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:22,000
Mickey having a great year with the RBIs.

129
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:34,000
Still nobody out. Elston Howard, the fifth batter for the Yankees, coming to the plate, Maris at third, Maddell at second.

130
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:46,000
Ted Abernathy is warming up for the Indians in the bullpen.

131
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:53,000
Lee Stang and they're going to put Howard on and load him up to pitch to Joe Pepitone and that's an unusual thing.

132
00:16:53,000 --> 00:17:00,000
Howard, a right-hand batter, facing the right-handed Lee Stang, they're going to pitch to the left-handed hitting Joe Pepitone.

133
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:12,000
Howard leads the Yankees in batting with 3-12. And last night, with a base loaded and the Indians leading 2-0, Howard doubled down the left field line to tie the score.

134
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:19,000
Bertie Tebis decides he's had enough of Mr. Howard. He's going to try for Joe Pepitone.

135
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:40,000
Ellie, it's 3-0 now. He's batting a 3-12 with 15 homers, 81 RBIs. And ball for, and Howard is intentionally passed and still there's nobody out with the bases loaded.

136
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:49,000
Joe Pepitone, the sixth Yankee to come to the plate. He's hitting a 2-49. 28 home runs, 99 RBIs, and here's a spot.

137
00:17:49,000 --> 00:18:05,000
How much better can it be to come up with that 100th RBI? Bases loaded, nobody out. The first pitch to Pepe is high and it's ball one.

138
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:12,000
A fly ball, a base on balls, or a base hit, and Joe's got his 100th RBI.

139
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:21,000
Alright, the 1-0 pitch to Pepe. Swings and misses, strike one, 1-1.

140
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:30,000
Lee Stang, through the first five batters, walked two, gave up three hits, he's allowed two runs. Yankees lead 2-0.

141
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:41,000
Last of the first inning. Stang ready again, the runner's leading off. The pitch to Pepitone is hopped up into the infield and it's an automatic out.

142
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:48,000
The infield fly rule is called, and Pepitone is out of there, the runner's hold.

143
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:56,000
That one was caught by the second baseman, Billy Moran.

144
00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:04,000
Oh, there's one out, now here's Tommy Tresh batting left-handed.

145
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:09,000
Tresh batting at 2-49, 16 home runs, and 73 RBIs.

146
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:16,000
Tom got the big three-run homer, gave the Yankees the ball game last night. It was 2-2 tie when he hit it.

147
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:21,000
The Yankees got all their runs, and the third to win the game.

148
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:28,000
First pitch is high to Tresh, it's ball one.

149
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:35,000
Marissa third, Mantle at second, Howard at first. Two runs in.

150
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:42,000
Stang into the windup, the pitch to Tresh is just outside 2-0.

151
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:47,000
So Stang has now fallen behind Tresh, he's got to come in there.

152
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:58,000
The bases are loaded, one away.

153
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:04,000
Stang into the windup again, the runner's lead off. The pitch to Tresh is fouled off, strike one.

154
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:13,000
Two balls and a strike to Tommy.

155
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:19,000
Sign on the board, the American League standings. The Yankees, percentage of 613.

156
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:24,000
The White Sox, a percentage of 600, and the Orioles, who are out of it, have a percentage of 596.

157
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,000
The magic number is one.

158
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:38,000
Pitch to Tresh is popped up into short left field, digging over as the shortstop edge of the grass takes it, and there are two out.

159
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:44,000
So, with the bases loaded and nobody out of here, Lee Stang has muscled up.

160
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:55,000
He has forced Pepitone to pop up, and now Tommy Tresh, and that'll bring up Cleet Boyer.

161
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,000
Boyer hitting a 2-16, eight homers, 51 RBIs.

162
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:06,000
Two out, bags loaded, Yanks lead 2-0.

163
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:16,000
This is the eighth Yankee batter, as Stang goes into the windup. The pitch to Cleet, in there, strike one.

164
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:23,000
After three full innings, the Mets lead the Cardinals, 8-4. They're playing in St. Louis.

165
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:30,000
Stang ready again. The one-strike pitch to Boyer, swung on a miss, strike two.

166
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:40,000
Tigers lead the Orioles, 2-1. After one, they're playing in Baltimore.

167
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:48,000
Boyer, digging in there, has that straightaway stance. Chokes up about an inch and a half on the end of the bat.

168
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:54,000
Okay, Stang ready. The two-strike pitch to Boyer, high fly ball, going back into short right center.

169
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:58,000
Billy Moran backing up for it, gets under it, and takes it.

170
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:04,000
So Lee Stang, really, bore down there to get Pepitone, Treschen, and Boyer.

171
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:19,000
The side is retired. The Yankees came up with two runs on three hits, and the score after one inning of play, the Yanks two and the Indians nothing.

172
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:28,000
Let's see if there's anything else happening on the scoreboard between the Mets and the Cardinals. No, it's still an 8-4 ball game after three.

173
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:32,000
We mentioned the Tigers lead the Orioles 2-1 after one.

174
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:38,000
Don't forget, tomorrow, the final game of the season will be getting underway at 1-30.

175
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:48,000
This will be your last chance to take a look at the 1964 Yankees in action at the stadium during regular season play, I should say.

176
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:59,000
Right now, as we've been mentioning, the Yankees, with the magic number at one, need only one victory or one White Sox loss to wrap up the fly.

177
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:03,000
The Yankees were in good spirits before they came into the ball game.

178
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:13,000
A host of them were huddled around the TV set, watching the Mets and the Cardinals out in St. Louis before the game got underway.

179
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:22,000
Not too much preference among the players as to who should they get in, or would they like to play, Cincinnati or St. Louis.

180
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:28,000
Don't forget, the Philadelphia Phillies are not out of it yet. They still have an outside chance.

181
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:35,000
And the Giants. So, there are four teams in the National League. Giants, Phillies, Cincinnati, and St. Louis, who are still in contention.

182
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:43,000
And this is next to the last day of the season.

183
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:48,000
Last night, the Orioles were eliminated, and now it's between the White Sox and the Yanks.

184
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:57,000
Now, here's John Romano, the catcher, takes a strike in there from Al Downing. Yankees leading 2-0.

185
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:03,000
Downing with a lifetime mark of 26-14.

186
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:13,000
Into the windup, the pitch to Romano, check swing foul, strike two.

187
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:18,000
Joe Askew caught the game for the Indians last night. Today, it's Johnny Romano.

188
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:27,000
Romano batting a 2-44, 19 homers, 47 RBIs. Swings and misses, and it's strike three.

189
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:41,000
Al Downing continues to strike him out. That's his second strikeout on this ball game, and number 213 on the year.

190
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:50,000
Now, here's Woody Held, the right fielder coming on. Held batting a 2-38. He's got 18 homeruns and 49 RBIs.

191
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:59,000
One out, nobody on. The pitch by Downing to Held is fouled back, strike one.

192
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:13,000
Right now, Al Downing and Camilo Pasquale are tied for the homerun lead in the American League with strikeouts, right?

193
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:21,000
Home run? Wow, well, let's start over again. What day is it? A one-on-one to count to Woody Held.

194
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:26,000
I'll get to that one in a moment. Held takes outside from Downing, a 2-1.

195
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:33,000
Pasquale and Downing are tied for the strikeout lead with 213 apiece.

196
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:40,000
That'd be quite a year if you hit 213 homers. They retire you.

197
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:50,000
All right, the 2-1 pitch to Woody Held. Check swing, bouncer down to third base side foul to Salihimas in the coaching box.

198
00:25:50,000 --> 00:26:06,000
Elmer Velo coaching at first for the Indians. Two balls, two strikes, one away.

199
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:13,000
Downing ready again. Here's the 2-2 pitch. It's a curveball, it's high, and it's 3-2.

200
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:20,000
Downing has run the count to 3-2. That's the third batter in this ball game. He's done it too.

201
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:29,000
Here's the payoff pitch. It's strike three, a swinging strike. And that is strikeout number three for Al Downing.

202
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:42,000
214 on the season, and he now officially takes over the American League lead for strikeouts.

203
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:50,000
Here's Vic D'Avalio, small center fielder. D'Avalio batting at 272. Six homers, 51 RBIs.

204
00:26:50,000 --> 00:27:03,000
Takes a strike in there, breaking ball. D'Avalio leads the Indians in stolen bases with 21.

205
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:08,000
Downing ready again. Swung on and missed, and it's strike two.

206
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:13,000
From here it looks as though the batters are really having trouble picking up Downing's fastball.

207
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,000
That ball's on them as they start to go at it.

208
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:30,000
Alright, the two-strike pitch to D'Avalio. He fouls this one into the upper deck down the left side, and it's nothing and two. The count holds.

209
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:38,000
Red Sox lead the Senators one to nothing after one.

210
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:44,000
Downing delivers to D'Avalio, and what is it? Ball.

211
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:52,000
One and two to count. John Rice did not make a move. Howard dropped the ball and dashed out to tag D'Avalio.

212
00:27:52,000 --> 00:28:00,000
We thought it might have been a called third strike with Howard dropping the ball, but that was not the case.

213
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:06,000
Alright, one ball, two strikes. Two out, nobody on. Yanks lead two to nothing, top of the second.

214
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:14,000
Downing ready again. The pitch to D'Avalio. Hopper right back to Downing. He takes it over to Pepitone to retire the side.

215
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:21,000
So it's three up and three down for the Indians to score. After one and a half, the Yankees two, the Indians nothing.

216
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:26,000
Talk about high octane.

217
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:34,000
Talk about smooth, clean performance.

218
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:47,000
You're talking about new Power Formula SOXtra gasoline from Humble Oil and Refining Company. Puts a tiger in your tank.

219
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:56,000
Yes, the Humble Scientists have caged up a tiger in new Power Formula SOXtra. This is the gasoline that actually helps restore lost power.

220
00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:07,000
It keeps your engine purring smooth because it keeps it running clean. Actually cleans the carburetor, neutralizes harmful engine deposits, gives your car a new lease on life.

221
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:19,000
So see your SO dealer today and let him uncage that tiger for you. Just say, fill her up with SOXtra. Puts a tiger in your tank.

222
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:27,000
Happy motoring.

223
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:31,000
Let's pause right now for station identification.

224
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:45,000
Here a double header on music of Broadway tomorrow morning, starting at 915 here on WCBS and WCBS-FM New York.

225
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:50,000
Well, as Al Downing comes to the plate, we've got our first football score. This could be a big upset in the making.

226
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:57,000
Holy Cross leads Syracuse 8 to nothing and Syracuse was favored by 24.

227
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:11,000
So here's Al Downing though at the bottom of the second inning batting from the right side to face Lee Stang. He takes a strike right in there. Yankees are leading 2 to nothing.

228
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:17,000
Mets failed to score on the top of the fourth. They lead the Cardinals 8 to 4 with St. Louis batting in the bottom of the fourth.

229
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:23,000
Downing hits a pitch into center field, a base hit.

230
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:36,000
He caught that one right on the end of the bat. Aligned it, not too hard, into dead center field. So Downing is on with a base hit, the lead off the bottom of the second.

231
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:52,000
That's the fourth hit given up by Lee Stang. Now here's Phil Lenz who started the ballgame with a double to right center, later scored.

232
00:30:52,000 --> 00:31:03,000
Ted Abernathy is up again for the Indians as Stang sets checks Downing the pitch to Lenz. He bunches it behind the plate and bounces back over Romano's head.

233
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:16,000
Strike one. Yogi with a 2 to nothing lead and wants to move another man into scoring position.

234
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:21,000
Nice to be able to pick up a run in an inning.

235
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:27,000
That happened this year and it's unusual. Some team in the National League, I forgot, got a run in every inning.

236
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:44,000
Phil bunched this one up in the air way back on the screen. That one came back and hit the screen. No chance for Romano to get to it. It's nothing and 2.

237
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:59,000
Army plays last year's number one team, Texas tonight, and Navy plays Michigan. So the two service academies from the East got a lot of football on their hands today.

238
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:09,000
Alright, here's a two strike pitch to Lenz. It's outside. Ball one, one and two. Lenz was swinging away. Now he takes a look at Frank Crissetti to see whether or not he wants them to bun him all the way.

239
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:16,000
Yankees leading by two, not much likelihood that he will.

240
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,000
Downing leading off first.

241
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:31,000
Stang sets the pitch to Lenz. The ground ball to the shortstop, Hauser, up with it, flips to second for one, throw to first, not in time as Lenz put on a burst of speed to beat the relay by Billy Moran.

242
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:48,000
Downing forced at second. Lenz stays alive at first on the field, or on the force play, and that will bring up Bobby Richardson.

243
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:53,000
Richardson had an infield single in the first inning and later scored.

244
00:32:53,000 --> 00:33:02,000
One out, Phil Lenz at first base. Last of the second.

245
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:31,000
Stang gets the sign from Johnny Romano. Phil takes the lead. The pitch to Bobby is a curve that doesn't make the inside corner and it's ball one.

246
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:37,000
Throw over to first base and Lenz is back.

247
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:45,000
Lee Stang acquired from the twins for Jim Mudcat Grant.

248
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:50,000
Here's the 1-0 pitch to Bobby, strike called, one and one.

249
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:57,000
We've got quite an interesting setup coming along in the National League. If the Giants should win today

250
00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:12,000
and St. Louis lose, four teams in the National League will be separated by one game.

251
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:19,000
Bobby takes a strike right in there, one and two. How do you like that?

252
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:28,000
The Giants and the Phillies would be one out. St. Louis and Cincinnati tied for the lead.

253
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:32,000
And it ends tomorrow.

254
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:36,000
Of course, that's supposition right now. Here's the 1-2 pitch to Richardson.

255
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:45,000
Drops one into left center, digging for Wagner, can't get it. Lenz around second holds as Wagner fires the ball into Max Alvarez.

256
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:50,000
Bobby just stuck out his bat and dropped one. It was like a chip shot really.

257
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:55,000
Looping it over the shortstop's head into left center. So that's Bobby's second hit.

258
00:34:55,000 --> 00:35:07,000
The Yankees have runners at first and second and here's Roger Maris who walked in the first inning.

259
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:11,000
That's the fifth hit off Stang.

260
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:17,000
Stang has been in trouble in both innings. Pitched to eight batters in the first, gave up two runs.

261
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:26,000
Now he's got runners at first and second with one out. Maris the batter, mantle on deck.

262
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:31,000
Outfield plays Maris deep and the pull. Infield shaded to the right side.

263
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:54,000
Roger fouls this one back on the screen and it's strike one.

264
00:35:54,000 --> 00:36:09,000
Stang gets a sign, he sets, checks the runners. A pitch to Maris is way inside. It's one and one.

265
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:14,000
Well from August 22nd the Yankees hitched up their britches and took off.

266
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:21,000
And right now they're one victory away from the 1964 Pennant.

267
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:39,000
A real team effort in the last six and a half weeks. Pitch to Maris, swung on and missed strike two. One and two.

268
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:46,000
Kind of a bubbly crowd out here today. Sort of a soft murmur. Things moving right along.

269
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:55,000
Feel the excitement. Alright, Stang ready. The one, two, pitch to Roger is swung on and missed and it's strike three.

270
00:36:55,000 --> 00:37:03,000
Lee Stang striking out Roger Maris for the second out in this inning.

271
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:08,000
That's his first strike out of the ball game and that'll bring out Mickey Mantle.

272
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:22,000
Mantle with an opposite field double in the first has driven in the only two runs for the Yankees thus far. They lead two to nothing.

273
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:34,000
Lins at second, Richardson at first. Two of the fastest Yankees on the base as Mantle takes low and inside, ball one.

274
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:49,000
Mickey with 110 RBIs on the air batting at 305.

275
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,000
Two out, runners leading off again.

276
00:37:52,000 --> 00:38:02,000
Stang, a double look at Lins at second, pitches to Mantle, a high hopper to the mound. Stang has it. Flips in time to Simone and the Yankees are out of there.

277
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:09,000
No runs on two hits and the score after two full innings of play, the Yankees two and the Indians nothing.

278
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:33,000
Camel time. It's camel time, camel time. It's pleasure time for you. Camel time is any time when nothing less will do. Things all seem to brighten up every time you light one up.

279
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:40,000
Right now make it camel time. Have a camel cigarette.

280
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:56,000
The best tobacco makes the best smoke. Camel gives you easy going taste, honest enjoyment, choice quality tobaccos. The exclusive camel blend of costly tobaccos has never been equal. The best tobacco makes the best smoke.

281
00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:14,000
Right now make it camel time. Have a camel cigarette.

282
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:29,000
Here's Billy Moran, the second baseman for the Indians leading off here in the top of the third with the Yankees leading two to nothing. Al Downing in there all the way for the Yankees. Lee Stang for the Indians.

283
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:36,000
Billy Moran, right hand batter. He was acquired from the Los Angeles Angels earlier this year.

284
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:39,000
First pitch is a strike right in there.

285
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:55,000
Downing with that good fastball has been giving the Indian batters a lot of trouble. Got that shadow about at the mound right now. There's a curve ball that's down one and one.

286
00:39:55,000 --> 00:40:07,000
We mention this because it is a factor. Pitchers with good stuff can give batters a lot of trouble here with the shadows as they are right now. They're about at the mound halfway between home and third.

287
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:18,000
Two balls and a strike.

288
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:29,000
Al Downing into the wind up the 2-1 pitch is low and it's three and one in St. Louis with the Cardinals batting. In the last of the fourth they've got the bases loaded and two out.

289
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:42,000
They're right to four right now. They are really having a Donny Brook out there. All right the 3-1 pitch to Moran. It's strike two.

290
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:48,000
Full count to Billy Moran.

291
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:57,000
Al Downing 13 and eight on the air. Gets the side from Ellie Howard into the wind up. The pitch is just outside and he walked him.

292
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:07,000
So that's the second walk given up by Downing. Lee Stang is the scheduled batter and is he going to come up? Yep.

293
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:26,000
Yanks lead the Indians two to nothing. They've got five hits. The Indians hit us at this point. We're in the top of the third.

294
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:36,000
All right Downing sets the pitch to Stang. A beautiful bunt out by the mound. Downing has to go to first. Oh almost threw it away.

295
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:41,000
Bobby Richardson had to jump as high as he could go to come up with that one.

296
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:45,000
A beautiful sacrifice by Stang.

297
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:53,000
Downing throwing a high one to Bobby. Richardson came up with it on the play. Moran goes to second.

298
00:41:53,000 --> 00:42:03,000
Now this will bring up Chico Simone the leadoff batter who fly to right field in the first.

299
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:08,000
Downing with the sign. Moran leading off second. The pitch to Simone. A hopper. Lins to his left. Can't get it.

300
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:16,000
And here comes Moran. A round third base and it's a two to one ball game. And there was a strange bounce on that ball.

301
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:29,000
Was going at a bounding point where Lins was going to catch up with it. And at the last bounce before Lins could field it, it kicked back toward the right field side and went straight into center.

302
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:43,000
So Simone gets himself a base hit and an RBI. And it's now the Yankees two and the Indians one. We were directly behind the plate and we could see that ball take that odd kick away from Lins's glove.

303
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:58,000
Here's Hauser. Takes a strike right in there. Simone at first base. Chico a fast man. Got himself ten stolen bases in 84 games.

304
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:08,000
That was the first base hit off Al Downing. And Downing throws over to first base to keep Simone honest.

305
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:14,000
Downing has developed a pretty good move with the help of Whitey Ford who's got them all.

306
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:18,000
All right. The one strike pitch is hit hard to left field. That ball's in there.

307
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:26,000
Fresh gets it on the first hop. Simone digging for third and he is out of there.

308
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:34,000
The plate umpire made the call as Larry Knapp was behind the play. He was down the line.

309
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:42,000
And coming out from the plate was John Rice. Rice was about 30 feet from the play and called it at a distance.

310
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:48,000
But he had the good look at it. And Bertie Tebbits is out talking to John Rice.

311
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:56,000
So that's a big break for the Yankees. Now they've got two outs with a runner at second instead of one out and runners at second and third.

312
00:43:56,000 --> 00:44:07,000
That ball went from Tresh to Lins to Boyer. They're giving Hauser credit for a double.

313
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:16,000
Simone out on the relay from Tresh to Lins to Boyer. Seven six five.

314
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:23,000
Hauser is at second base with two out. That's the second hit off Downing. Two to one ball game.

315
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:30,000
Yankees lead. Now here is Leon Wagner who's struck out in the first.

316
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:39,000
Swings at the first pitch and he tried to stop but couldn't. Strike one to Wagner.

317
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:45,000
Well the Cardinals failed to score. Parsons came on in relief and retired the Cardinals.

318
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:48,000
There were the bases loaded and two out so it's still eight to four after four.

319
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:56,000
Wagner hopper to Pepitone at first. He's got it. Races to the bag and the side is retired.

320
00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:02,000
One run on two hits. No Yankee errors. One man left the score after two and a half.

321
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:05,000
Yanks two and the Indians one.

322
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:09,000
Valentine's beer, Valentine's beer.

323
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:16,000
You wrap your hand around an icy cold glass of it. Valentine's beer, Valentine's beer.

324
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:22,000
You taste it crisp, clean, refreshing. Valentine's beer, Valentine's beer.

325
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:27,000
Won't fill you up, won't let you down.

326
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:37,000
You get a smile every time with a Valentine. Won't fill you up, won't let you down.

327
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:50,000
The crisp, clean taste of a Valentine. Won't fill you up, won't let you down.

328
00:45:50,000 --> 00:46:00,000
So get a smile every time with a Valentine. Won't fill you up, won't let you down.

329
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:13,000
Wow, what a beer. That Valentine.

330
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:17,000
Okay, here comes Ellie Howard and we've got a change from the official score.

331
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:23,000
Dick Hauser is now credited with a single and not a double as we originally announced.

332
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:32,000
All right, Howard, who was passed intentionally in the first inning, comes to the plate.

333
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:36,000
Lee Stang into the windup. The pitch to Ellie is low and it's ball one.

334
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,000
Yankees two and the Indians one. We're in the last of the third.

335
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:48,000
Howard batting at 3-12.

336
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:55,000
Stang ready again to pitch to Ellie. Shot up the middle base hit.

337
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:59,000
Line drive right past the shoulder of Lee Stang.

338
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:04,000
So the Yankees get the leadoff batter on again for the third inning in a row.

339
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:08,000
The first lens doubled and the second downing single to lead it off.

340
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:12,000
And now here's Ellie Howard in the bottom of the third with a single to center.

341
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:16,000
That is hit number six off Stang and that'll bring up Joe Pepitone,

342
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:24,000
who popped to the second baseman in the first inning.

343
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:28,000
Dick Donovan and Ted Abernathy warming up for the Indians.

344
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:36,000
Stang sets the pitch to Pepitone, is swung on and missed and it's strike one.

345
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:43,000
There's one thing about Lee Stang, he has put in a long day right now and we're only in the bottom of the third.

346
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Eight men in the first inning, five in the second and the leadoff batter on here in the third.

347
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:57,000
Stang delivers, the ball gets by the catcher. Johnny Romano down to second is Howard.

348
00:47:57,000 --> 00:48:07,000
The big sweep around second but he holds.

349
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:14,000
The wild pitch is charged to Lee Stang.

350
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:18,000
So with nobody out, Howard is now at second base.

351
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:21,000
A 1-1 count to Pepitone.

352
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:28,000
The Yankees two, Indians one, last to the third.

353
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:34,000
After three, Detroit two and the Orioles two, they're playing a Baltimore.

354
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:39,000
Now Stang sets the pitch to Pepitone fouled off.

355
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:49,000
One ball, two strikes. Kansas City and Chicago playing at Chicago are scoreless after one.

356
00:48:49,000 --> 00:49:01,000
O'Donoghue and Horlan, John O'Donoghue the left-hander and Joel Horlan the right-hander are opposing each other in that Kansas City Chicago game.

357
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:09,000
Alright, Stang sets the one-two pitch to Pepitone. Up the middle, nice stop by Hauser but he can't throw anybody out.

358
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:12,000
That ball went right through Stang's legs.

359
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:16,000
Hauser darting behind second base, caught the ball and then fell down.

360
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:20,000
And that'll go as a base hit for Pepitone.

361
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:24,000
So the Yankees have two men on and no one out. Howard stayed at second base.

362
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:38,000
That'll bring up Tommy Trash.

363
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:45,000
Alright, Tom Trash. Popped to the shortstop in the first inning. He's 0-1.

364
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:48,000
Yankees with runners at first and second.

365
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:58,000
Stang sets this time. The pitch to Trash is swung on and missed and it's strike one.

366
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:12,000
Well, Charlie Smith is homered for the Mets in the top of the fifth and now it's 9-4 at least with the Mets batting in the top of the fifth inning.

367
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:22,000
Stang ready. The pitch to Tom is low in the dirt, one-and-one. Nice block by John Romano.

368
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:33,000
The way that situation is developing in St. Louis, the Mets will have to become the most unpopular team of all time as far as the Cardinals are concerned.

369
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:43,000
Beat them last night 1-0 in a thriller. They lead 9-4 in the fifth inning today.

370
00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:50,000
Stang sets the one-one pitch to Trash. It's swung on and missed and it's strike two. One ball, two strikes.

371
00:50:50,000 --> 00:51:03,000
Boyer on deck, nobody out. Howard at second, Pepitone at first. Yankees leading 2-1. We're in the bottom of the third.

372
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:25,000
Stang stretches, checks Howard at second. The pitch to Tommy is foul down the left field side, out of play. Count remains one ball, two strikes.

373
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:33,000
Final game of the season tomorrow between these two ball clubs here at the stadium. Game time 1-30.

374
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:39,000
Now I'll wrap up the 1964 pennant race.

375
00:51:39,000 --> 00:52:03,000
All right, Stang gets the sign from Romano. The pitch on the way to Trash is outside, a high fastball, two and two.

376
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:12,000
Stang once again. Here's the 2-2 pitch to Trash, just outside a full count.

377
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:21,000
Well, the Cardinals in the fifth inning have already used five pitchers. The Mets have used four and it looks like a battle for manpower right now.

378
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:25,000
Whoever has the most men at the end will win.

379
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:34,000
That's going to be a big ball game for the Cardinals. Boy, that could change the entire complexion of this National League race.

380
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:40,000
Pay off pitch, the runners are going. There's a drive to straightaway center, D'Avalio. Plenty of room and he can move his back.

381
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:49,000
He gets it. Howard goes back to tag up and will go on to third base. That ball was hit 410 feet in dead center field.

382
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:58,000
Howard and Pepitone were going on the pitch and then Howard stopped and went all the way back and tagged and then moved over to third.

383
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:04,000
So Trash, the long fly to center, he's out of there. There's one away. Howard is at third, Pepitone at first.

384
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:10,000
The batter is Cleet Boyer. Yankees leading 2-1, last of the third inning.

385
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:15,000
And now Romano is out to talk to Lee Stang.

386
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:23,000
Stang is pitching one of those games. He's been in hot water in every inning.

387
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:27,000
Yeah, the base is loaded.

388
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:32,000
In the first inning, Mantle doubled. Then they walked Howard, he had him loaded again with nobody out all through this.

389
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:40,000
And finally, he got Pepitone, Trash and Boyer on pop-ups to retire the side. But he was in a jam then. He gave up only two runs.

390
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:52,000
Pitched to five batters in the second inning. He got runners at first and third with one out here in the third.

391
00:53:52,000 --> 00:54:00,000
Boyer the batter. Stang gets the sign. He sets the pitch. It's a ground ball to third. Into left field, base hit.

392
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:07,000
Howard in to score. Pepitone stops at second and it's a 3-1 ball game.

393
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:15,000
We thought Max Alves might have had a shot at that ball, but it just tipped his glove and sneaked into left field.

394
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:22,000
So Boyer gets credit for a single and an RBI. And the Yankees lead 3-1. And that will bring up Al Downing.

395
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:32,000
Downing had a leadoff single in the second inning. That is hit number eight off Stang.

396
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:38,000
Yanks three, Indians one, bottom of the third, one out. Pepitone at second, Boyer at first.

397
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:44,000
They're looking for the sacrifice, but Downing swings and it's strike one.

398
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:51,000
Alves was creeping in. Simone at first, playing away in.

399
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:58,000
So Downing took a swipe at the ball. Now let's see what happens this time.

400
00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:04,000
Indian in field still playing shallow, looking for a possible bunt. Downing swings at this one and it's strike two.

401
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:24,000
Nothing and two to count. Now Al takes a look at Frank Presetti. Steps back in the box.

402
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:29,000
Stang sets the two-strike pitch. Strike three, call. Hit that outside corner.

403
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:37,000
That is strikeout number two for Stang. Now to bring up Phil Linds, who doubled in the first inning.

404
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:55,000
Bounced the short in the second. He's one for two. Linds scored a run in the first.

405
00:55:55,000 --> 00:56:04,000
Two out, runners at first and second. Lee Stang, fairly compact right-hander on the mound for the Indians.

406
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:15,000
Delivers and Phil swings and misses and it's strike one.

407
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:20,000
Kansas City failed to score on the top of the second. Chicago batting in the bottom of the second.

408
00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:27,000
No score in that ballgame. Linds fouls this one off and it is nothing and two.

409
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:37,000
No balls, two strikes to Phil Linds. Bobby Richardson on deck.

410
00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:43,000
With the Cardinals batting in the bottom of the fifth, the Mets came up with one in the top of the fifth.

411
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:48,000
It's the Mets nine and the Cardinals four.

412
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:56,000
Charlie Smith hit a home run in the fifth inning to give the Mets another one.

413
00:56:56,000 --> 00:57:00,000
All right, Pepitone off second. Boyer off first.

414
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:05,000
Stang sets a two-strike pitch to Linds and that ball was thrown over Linds' head,

415
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:09,000
past the catcher and hit the bat stop on a fly.

416
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:13,000
That had to be one of the best wild pitches you'll ever see.

417
00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:21,000
That ball was two and a half feet over Linds' head and really got away from Lee Stang.

418
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:28,000
It hit the backstop, which is 75 to 80 feet behind home plate on a fly.

419
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:31,000
So it's one ball, two strikes and the runners move up.

420
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:36,000
Pepitone goes to third. Boyer to second.

421
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:42,000
That was rather startling because of how far off the target it was.

422
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:46,000
Now we're ready. Here's the one-two pitch. Swung on and missed. Strike three.

423
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:50,000
That one, a letter high fastball. That takes care of the Yankees.

424
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:55,000
But not before they came up with one run on three hits.

425
00:57:55,000 --> 00:58:01,000
And the score after three full innings of play, it's the Yankees three and the Indians one.

426
00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:06,000
The next portion of this ball game will be brought to you by the makers of Camel Cigarettes.

427
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:12,000
Camel gives you easygoing taste, honest enjoyment, choice quality tobaccos.

428
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:19,000
The best tobacco makes the best smoke. Make it Camel time, right now.

429
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:32,000
Okay, as we get ready for the fourth inning with the Yankees leading three to one,

430
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:35,000
here's the old redhead, Red Barber, to take you along for a while.

431
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:38,000
Now Jerry, just what have you told them so I won't repeat?

432
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:40,000
Well, I've tried to tell them just about everything.

433
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:44,000
I've stayed on top of that National League action and of course the action in Chicago

434
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:47,000
with the Kansas City A's and the White Sox going at it.

435
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:50,000
So we've tried to keep abreast of the two pennant races.

436
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:52,000
We did mention one thing that's startling.

437
00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:57,000
If the Mets win and the Giants win, four teams will be separated by one game

438
00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:00,000
going into the final game tomorrow in the National League.

439
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:03,000
You think there's any chance of a four-way playoff?

440
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:06,000
No, not there because Cincinnati and Philadelphia, somebody's got to fall.

441
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:10,000
They play each other.

442
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:14,000
All right, Jerry.

443
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:18,000
Well, we've got a mighty pretty day for this big ball game here at the Big Ball Park.

444
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:22,000
Al Downing for the second time has a two-run lead.

445
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:26,000
He is ready to pitch now in the fourth inning to Max Alves, the third baseman,

446
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:32,000
hitting number four and Tebbit's batting order, then Romano and then Harold.

447
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:35,000
Young left-hander going after his 14th win.

448
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:38,000
This is the third time he's tried for it.

449
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:40,000
He's won an O over Cleveland this year.

450
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:42,000
He's never lost to him in his short career.

451
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:44,000
He has four in a lifetime.

452
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:47,000
First pitch is over to Alves for a called strike.

453
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:51,000
Max hit into a force at second base in the first inning.

454
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:52,000
3-1.

455
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:53,000
Think of the Yankees.

456
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:54,000
Think and win it.

457
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,000
It's all theirs.

458
00:59:56,000 --> 01:00:00,000
Change of pace, grounded foul between third base and the coaches, Salahimas.

459
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:04,000
Kicking down into the left-field corner where Tresh has to run it down.

460
01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:07,000
Ball even kicked past him.

461
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:13,000
Two strikes.

462
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:32,000
We really got the wheels turning today.

463
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:33,000
We're going to be busy from now on.

464
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:34,000
You know, the football score is coming in.

465
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:39,000
End of the quarter, Purdue 7, Notre Dame nothing.

466
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:41,000
Pitch is low for a ball.

467
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:51,000
At the end of the quarter, Northwestern and Illinois, no score.

468
01:00:51,000 --> 01:00:55,000
Detroit has just come up with four runs down at Baltimore.

469
01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:56,000
One-two pitch.

470
01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:58,000
High outside ball two.

471
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:02,000
Baltimore's problem is a hope to take second place from the White Sox.

472
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:09,000
They were eliminated by the Yankees when last evening.

473
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:15,000
It is Detroit 6 and Baltimore 2 and a three and a half and they got Papas out of there.

474
01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:19,000
Strike three, low curve ball.

475
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:21,000
And now Downing strikes out his fourth.

476
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:23,000
He's the top man in the league in strikeouts.

477
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:27,000
He has 215 to Pasquale's 213.

478
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:34,000
And Downing may wind up as the strikeout leader this year in the American League because Pasquale pitched Thursday.

479
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:42,000
And I would think that he wouldn't be pitching anymore this season.

480
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:47,000
Now we have Romano who struck out in the second inning.

481
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:51,000
I mean, you have to watch Pasquale's arm for one thing.

482
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:53,000
He likes his full cop with a rest.

483
01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:54,000
So Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

484
01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:58,000
In other words, it's not like they're fighting for a penalty or something.

485
01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:02,000
Bringing back on two days rest.

486
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:05,000
End of three innings of the Boston 1 Washington nothing.

487
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:09,000
And the new manager Billy Herman is running the Red Sox.

488
01:02:09,000 --> 01:02:11,000
He has a two-year contract.

489
01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:13,000
This is his second shot at managing.

490
01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:15,000
He waited 17 years for it.

491
01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:18,000
A curve ball in there.

492
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:20,000
Strike two, one and two.

493
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:22,000
Romano right hander badger.

494
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:24,000
Across the river.

495
01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:29,000
Herman right after he finished his active career as a play on managed the power for a season.

496
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:34,000
And he said in his interview at Boston yesterday that he was young then and experienced.

497
01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:38,000
But he's been learning about his mistakes for the waiting 17 years.

498
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:40,000
Strike three swinging on a curve ball.

499
01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:47,000
So Downing now strikes out the first two and the fourth inning holding his three one lead.

500
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:52,000
Five for the day to 16 for the season.

501
01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:55,000
Pete Ward just hit a home run for the White Sox.

502
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:58,000
And they lead one to nothing at the end of two innings in their battle with Kansas City.

503
01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:04,000
Or Donahue for the A's and Haaland for the White Sox.

504
01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:10,000
LA at Minnesota later.

505
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:14,000
The Mets are really making life miserable.

506
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:16,000
Got a run in the fifth inning.

507
01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:20,000
And they're leading now nine to four.

508
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:25,000
What a hell fouls a pitch back and it is one and one one ball one strike.

509
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:28,000
Smith of the Mets hit that home run in the fifth.

510
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:34,000
Altman hit one in the second Crane Bowl with two on hit one in the third.

511
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:40,000
White and Boyer have hit home runs for the Cardinals.

512
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:43,000
Change up his other for a strike two.

513
01:03:43,000 --> 01:03:47,000
In the Mets St. Louis game Fisher began for New York.

514
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:51,000
Right but in the second and Parsons in the fourth.

515
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:56,000
Sadecki who had one 20 began for St. Louis Craig in the second inning Richardson in the third.

516
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:57,000
Hope was in the fourth.

517
01:03:57,000 --> 01:04:03,000
Strike three swinging and I'm Mr. Downing just simply sets down the side.

518
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:05,000
Strikes it out.

519
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:12,000
That's all I want to that three case the book and for the Yankees driving to nail it down themselves.

520
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:17,000
The end of three and a half New York three and Cleveland one.

521
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:26,000
While the teams exchange positions on the field let's take time out and declare a time for a camel the best tasting cigarette of them all.

522
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:32,000
Yes sir the exclusive camel blend of costly tobaccos has never been equal.

523
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:38,000
Camel gives you easy going taste honest enjoyment choice quality tobaccos.

524
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:41,000
The best tobacco makes the best smoke.

525
01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:48,000
So make it camel time for you camel time is any time when nothing less than a camel will do.

526
01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:56,000
So light up lean back and smile things all seem to brighten up every time you light one up.

527
01:04:56,000 --> 01:05:02,000
Discover what we mean when we say camel time is pleasure time.

528
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:06,000
Make it camel time right now.

529
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:10,000
Right now make it camel time.

530
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:14,000
Now the camel cigarette.

531
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:27,000
We are at this juncture we will pause for station identification.

532
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:37,000
You're a Broadway doubleheader during music of Broadway starting tomorrow morning at 915 here on WCBS and WCBS FM New York.

533
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:43,000
Lee Stang makes his first pitch a high lead up to Bobby Richardson as we move into the last of the fourth inning.

534
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:47,000
Stanger right hander has won seven and 13 this season.

535
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:53,000
He was dealt up to the curtain lifted you know from the twins to the Indians.

536
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:55,000
All back.

537
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:57,000
Boom.

538
01:05:57,000 --> 01:06:07,000
Right over there and Jerry Coleman's Bellavick he moved over there on TV.

539
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:13,000
Richardson is a ground ball short.

540
01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:14,000
How's that.

541
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:18,000
Oh what a first to some on and Richardson is out.

542
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:20,000
Bobby had gone up there too.

543
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,000
Now I have one out last in the fourth.

544
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:27,000
Yankee leading three to one.

545
01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:36,000
There is Maris was walking fan.

546
01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:42,000
They're defending well around at the right.

547
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:55,000
The first pitch is at a coaching at third Jimmy Gleason at first Roger hits a ground ball slowly to the pitcher who runs over the first base he intercepted the ball halfway between the mound and first base.

548
01:06:55,000 --> 01:07:04,000
Marissa down to down and here is battle with the base is loaded.

549
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:06,000
Lens open with a double the right center.

550
01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:12,000
He's got a lot of space to get out of a base hit.

551
01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:14,000
Actually he didn't beat it out so much.

552
01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:20,000
He's hustling all the time as someone who is an inexperienced first baseman got his feet crossed out.

553
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:25,000
In other words he tried to do the buck and wing and he didn't get the wing on it.

554
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:27,000
Mannequin.

555
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:34,000
He just missed touching first base with his foot and Richardson didn't.

556
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:54,000
He's got a double down inside the left field line ground rule double and the Yankees got their first two in the third inning a single by Howard a wild pitch and a single ground foul by Boya got the third run in two strikes to Mickey

557
01:07:54,000 --> 01:08:05,000
Madeline batting in those two kicked his RBI is up to 110 which is a good year's work.

558
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:09,000
Lee Stang

559
01:08:09,000 --> 01:08:13,000
pitches inside close to the handball.

560
01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:21,000
Three to one favor New York Yankee number is one.

561
01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:24,000
The Yankees themselves eliminated Baltimore last night.

562
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:27,000
They're out to eliminate Chicago today.

563
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:34,000
Pitches wide out of this to and to

564
01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:36,000
at the end of five innings.

565
01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:41,000
It is still the Mets nine and the Cardinals for

566
01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:47,000
manager Kane isn't holding anybody back except the starting pitcher for tomorrow.

567
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:53,000
The Yankees are in the fourth inning and the Cuts in strikes out without a slider.

568
01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:59,000
So for strikeouts for staying nothing across to New York.

569
01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:06,000
And at the end of form they totals for the Yankees three runs eight hits and no errors for the Indians one run to his nowhere.

570
01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:15,000
Now let's give you a little bit more detail on the battle of the Mets out at St. Louis.

571
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:21,000
The Yankees are in the second and Parsons in the fourth and he's still going and for the Mets all in a home run on the second

572
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:27,000
Crane for one of the third with two on and Smith one in the fifth with nobody on

573
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:34,000
so that gave the 20 game winner for St. Louis fully rested went out there and bang Roger Craig replaced him in the second

574
01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:40,000
Richardson in the third Humphreys in the fourth Taylor in the fifth and Sierra in the sixth.

575
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:46,000
That's what I mean when I say that Kane is holding nobody back when you get to this stage you can't hold anybody back.

576
01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:55,000
I would say there's only one ballplayer in the park at the stadium today who is not going to get in the ballgame.

577
01:09:55,000 --> 01:09:59,000
And that's why before it was last night and they're counting on it for Wednesday.

578
01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:02,000
Otherwise Yogi would use them all.

579
01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:14,000
And of course Tevitz has got nobody to hold back.

580
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:17,000
Chicago San Francisco will be quite late.

581
01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:21,000
It's an afternoon game three hours difference in time.

582
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:27,000
It is Detroit six Baltimore two at the end of form.

583
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:33,000
And the three the Red Sox under their new manager Billy Herman for Washington nothing.

584
01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:37,000
And it to the White Sox one the athletics.

585
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:40,000
The first pitch is a move into the fifth inning.

586
01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:45,000
Vic D'Avalillo up the very small left hand hitting center fielder.

587
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:54,000
Stand right up on top of the plate especially forward foot's foul ball strike one.

588
01:10:54,000 --> 01:11:06,000
A fly ball out to left center field Maris is going sunglasses down he's going in one hand.

589
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:15,000
He's a pretty competent customer out there you know.

590
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:21,000
Now we have Billy Moran.

591
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:24,000
At least Lang gets out on deck whether he hits or not remains to be seen.

592
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:34,000
I mean Tevitz went to his bench early last night.

593
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:40,000
Al Downing pitching for the Yankees.

594
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:47,000
He's had a hit today and that means he's two up on bouton in the battle to see who's going to have the most hits for Yankee pitcher.

595
01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:51,000
There is a looper that Richardson's coming in makes the catch.

596
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:55,000
To put out a second by.

597
01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:59,000
Now let's see is it going to be a pitcher staying.

598
01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:04,000
Yes sacrifice in the third inning.

599
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:07,000
But we'll have a chance.

600
01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:09,000
He pitches tomorrow.

601
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:24,000
Mara ball game which brings down the curtain at 130.

602
01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:27,000
They want pets in their first strike.

603
01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:33,000
That was very interesting last night.

604
01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:40,000
White Sox of course playing a double header and nobody here at the stadium knew.

605
01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:45,000
When the Yankee game was over they'd won and the White Sox won the first what the second game was going to be.

606
01:12:45,000 --> 01:12:50,000
In fact the athletics even got it tied for four if you recall.

607
01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:53,000
They sang up swings and fouled it.

608
01:12:53,000 --> 01:13:10,000
And they were the first to take two. So we checked with the writers and if you think you've got bad hours the newspaper man had to stay here and wait until the second game in Chicago was over before they could write their story.

609
01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:15,000
There's a ground ball down the short lens over to Pemmetone.

610
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:22,000
That is the third out second straight inning down and put them down in order.

611
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:26,000
But at the end of four and a half it's an official ballgame.

612
01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:31,000
The Yankees three and the Indians one.

613
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:36,000
Camel time.

614
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:42,000
It's camel time camel time it's pleasure time for you.

615
01:13:42,000 --> 01:13:47,000
Camel time is any time when nothing less will do.

616
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:50,000
Things all seem to brighten up.

617
01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:58,000
Every time you like one up right now.

618
01:13:58,000 --> 01:14:01,000
The best tobacco makes the best smoke.

619
01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:06,000
Camel gives you easy going taste honest enjoyment choice quality tobacco.

620
01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:10,000
The exclusive camel blend of costly tobacco has never been equal.

621
01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:13,000
The best tobacco makes the best smoke.

622
01:14:13,000 --> 01:14:18,000
Right now.

623
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:22,000
Right now they get camel time.

624
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:35,000
Have a camel cigarette.

625
01:14:35,000 --> 01:14:38,000
Least thing is getting all set to pitch to Howard.

626
01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:42,000
Elston is one for one today. He was deliberately walked in the first inning.

627
01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:44,000
The Yankees on top three to one.

628
01:14:44,000 --> 01:14:52,000
When Howard single in the third he was later brought into the Yankees third run which is a big one.

629
01:14:52,000 --> 01:14:57,000
The defense is straight away on Ellie.

630
01:14:57,000 --> 01:15:02,000
Pitch it outside ball one.

631
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:06,000
Here are some of the writers who had to wait until that second game in Chicago was over.

632
01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:12,000
And the loneliness of a press room here at the stadium.

633
01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:14,000
In first strike.

634
01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:22,000
And you know a lonely place in a major league ballpark with all the lights out at two three o'clock in the morning.

635
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:24,000
And the kitchen is closed.

636
01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:28,000
Everything else is closed except the facility the Western Union and the telephone company.

637
01:15:28,000 --> 01:15:30,000
Howard cuts on the curve.

638
01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:34,000
Tommy Holmes of the Herald Tribune read his story this morning.

639
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:36,000
He got to bed later than you did.

640
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:42,000
Then a copy to the Times Joe Trimble of the News Jack hand to the AP.

641
01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:44,000
Kim Moriarty of the UPI.

642
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:46,000
Tilber Denzi of the Journal American.

643
01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:48,000
Larry Fox of the World Telegram.

644
01:15:48,000 --> 01:15:50,000
Maury Allen of the Post.

645
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:55,000
Howard McWide ball two.

646
01:15:55,000 --> 01:15:58,000
Bob Curlin of the Beacon Record.

647
01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:00,000
Bill Quinn of the Newark News.

648
01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:03,000
Jim Ogle of the Newark Star Legend.

649
01:16:03,000 --> 01:16:05,000
John Drebbinger of the Yankees remained.

650
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:08,000
You know just to see that everything was quiet and peaceful.

651
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:12,000
Howard strikes out on a curve strike three.

652
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:14,000
Five strikeouts for staying.

653
01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:19,000
Also there were three Western Union operators who had to remain down in the press room.

654
01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:26,000
So while you are having a cup of coffee this morning and reading your paper.

655
01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:34,000
Some fellows had to prop their eyelids up.

656
01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:42,000
Now I have Joe Puppetoe one for two.

657
01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:48,000
Joe takes a pitch curve in for a strike.

658
01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:50,000
Bam around in the right.

659
01:16:50,000 --> 01:17:01,000
The standard batter swings and grounds a foul back in the first base coach Jimmy Gleason.

660
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:05,000
Speaking of our fellow stand up late last night.

661
01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:08,000
What I heard on the radio this morning.

662
01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:12,000
There was some fellows that were getting up at the time these riders were going to bed.

663
01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:14,000
Around three three thirty.

664
01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:20,000
They must have been.

665
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:21,000
Pitches high inside.

666
01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:22,000
Pepperdome hung up there a little late.

667
01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:25,000
They might be a curve and it was a fastball and he had to drop.

668
01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:31,000
Well I'm saying that I heard on the radio before seven o'clock this morning.

669
01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:40,000
A fellow was given a rundown on the waiting time on a public golf courses around New York City.

670
01:17:40,000 --> 01:17:42,000
Hi outside.

671
01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:44,000
And he said.

672
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:47,000
And this is just before seven o'clock this morning.

673
01:17:47,000 --> 01:17:49,000
And what I'm doing listening to the radio at seven o'clock.

674
01:17:49,000 --> 01:17:50,000
I don't know.

675
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:52,000
I'm not interested in this kind of race or anything else.

676
01:17:52,000 --> 01:18:01,000
He said anywhere from an hour and a quarter to two hours waiting time then.

677
01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:05,000
To do a pitch swung on to the ground ball down to second.

678
01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:09,000
Ran over the first to someone and Pepperdome is out.

679
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:14,000
And I came to the firm conviction and I've had it all day long.

680
01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:20,000
And if it's seven o'clock in the morning fellows were already having to wait two hours to play golf.

681
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:27,000
There must be something to the enterprise.

682
01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:34,000
Now we've got Tommy Tresh who is over to thank you for getting three to one.

683
01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:36,000
Tres running.

684
01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:40,000
I've had it takes on the outside ball one.

685
01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:43,000
The Yankees had a chance to get a croaker sack full of runs in the first inning.

686
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:48,000
They had to end.

687
01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:54,000
Had the bases loaded and nobody out and then staying got three infield pop ups.

688
01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:58,000
Brown foul by the first base.

689
01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:02,000
John Stevens down there and umpire makes the stop ball kicked out.

690
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:04,000
Rice at the plate. Stevens at first.

691
01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:16,000
Valentine at second and map at third base.

692
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:19,000
I outside just think about these umpires are off season.

693
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:22,000
Stevens is a tough basketball official in the winter.

694
01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:28,000
And Larry Mapp used to be a tough fight referee.

695
01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:33,000
Championship fights at the garden he did.

696
01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:35,000
Fall back.

697
01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:42,000
You've all to strike.

698
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:47,000
And the four and a half innings it is Detroit six Baltimore two.

699
01:19:47,000 --> 01:19:51,000
And the three and a half Boston for Washington nothing.

700
01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:54,000
And the two Chicago one nothing over Kansas City.

701
01:19:54,000 --> 01:20:00,000
But the A's have been about a long time in the third inning.

702
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:04,000
Fresh checks on our low inside curve ball three.

703
01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:05,000
And the five and a half.

704
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:10,000
The Mets nine and the Cardinals four.

705
01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:12,000
The Mets are going to play later Milwaukee.

706
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:14,000
Chicago San Francisco.

707
01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:16,000
Houston LA.

708
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:20,000
Philadelphia Cincinnati is not scheduled.

709
01:20:20,000 --> 01:20:24,000
Strike three swinging he went after the curve ball and slangs at the Yankees down.

710
01:20:24,000 --> 01:20:26,000
In order for the second straight round.

711
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:29,000
Total at the end of five.

712
01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:30,000
Three runs.

713
01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:32,000
Eight hits no arrows for New York.

714
01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:42,000
One run two hits and no arrows for Cleveland.

715
01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:07,000
Reserved seats.

716
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:10,000
And after today's game.

717
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:12,000
At the stadium.

718
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:37,000
Dallas.

719
01:21:42,000 --> 01:21:51,120
Now a moment ending six and we have the top of the other Chico Samon one hit single to

720
01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:55,560
The middle in the third and that's not in Cleveland's tally.

721
01:21:55,560 --> 01:22:02,920
Downing had walked Moran Richard sacrificed him over and Samon picked him up.

722
01:22:02,920 --> 01:22:06,360
Yankees on top three to one.

723
01:22:06,360 --> 01:22:08,760
Outside first pitch ball one.

724
01:22:08,760 --> 01:22:13,320
The Yankees have beaten the Indians 14 out of 16 games this year.

725
01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:16,080
Bertie Tabot says it's indecent.

726
01:22:16,080 --> 01:22:17,080
That's his exact quote.

727
01:22:17,080 --> 01:22:19,400
Pitch is high outside ball two.

728
01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:25,440
I'll say this that the Cleveland club can blame the Yankees for this year.

729
01:22:25,440 --> 01:22:31,200
Every time Cleveland got going it was the Yankees that killed him.

730
01:22:31,200 --> 01:22:32,200
Curve is in.

731
01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:33,200
Thank you.

732
01:22:33,200 --> 01:22:37,200
Cleveland was trying to have a very respectable finish.

733
01:22:37,200 --> 01:22:40,440
They were playing about the best ball in the league till the Yankees went out there last

734
01:22:40,440 --> 01:22:54,680
week and won four ballgames in two nights.

735
01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:55,680
Chico Samon.

736
01:22:55,680 --> 01:22:58,160
They're trying him at first base now.

737
01:22:58,160 --> 01:22:59,160
They've had him at second.

738
01:22:59,160 --> 01:23:01,720
They've had him in right field.

739
01:23:01,720 --> 01:23:02,720
They know he's got the bat.

740
01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:05,720
They know he can run.

741
01:23:05,720 --> 01:23:09,400
Where are they playing.

742
01:23:09,400 --> 01:23:11,680
Ground ball to third pass for you down the left field line.

743
01:23:11,680 --> 01:23:13,480
Simone is on his way to second base.

744
01:23:13,480 --> 01:23:14,680
Valo has sent him.

745
01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:15,680
He's coming in easily.

746
01:23:15,680 --> 01:23:20,440
Trash throws in the third and it's a double.

747
01:23:20,440 --> 01:23:21,920
So you keep hitting like he's been hitting.

748
01:23:21,920 --> 01:23:24,920
They're gonna play you someplace.

749
01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:30,320
As you hit number three off downing.

750
01:23:30,320 --> 01:23:38,760
Simone has two of them now have how so who has the other one.

751
01:23:38,760 --> 01:23:41,440
He single to left in the third.

752
01:23:41,440 --> 01:23:46,160
Had there been nobody on base how they would have gotten a double in the third inning.

753
01:23:46,160 --> 01:23:50,960
That was the time when someone was cut down at third trying to go around there.

754
01:23:50,960 --> 01:23:55,800
That was the relay trash to men.

755
01:23:55,800 --> 01:24:00,560
The boy at first pitch is in for a strike.

756
01:24:00,560 --> 01:24:01,560
Nobody down.

757
01:24:01,560 --> 01:24:06,560
How's our right hand hitter.

758
01:24:06,560 --> 01:24:11,640
Thanks all for the strike strike to.

759
01:24:11,640 --> 01:24:19,160
Well look at that at the end of five Detroit and Baltimore six and six.

760
01:24:19,160 --> 01:24:22,080
Oreo still hoping to do something about second place.

761
01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:23,520
This is their last game of the season.

762
01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:29,320
They don't play tomorrow.

763
01:24:29,320 --> 01:24:35,160
A drive along the right field line is fair and it's gonna get the run in and Pepperton

764
01:24:35,160 --> 01:24:39,360
is kicking now to Stevens and Steven just trying to walk away from him.

765
01:24:39,360 --> 01:24:44,800
Pepper Tom is demonstrating rather forcefully where the ball hit and Stevens I think is

766
01:24:44,800 --> 01:24:47,800
warning him saying you better get away from me.

767
01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:51,320
John was saying before the game that in a ball game in which you're playing for the

768
01:24:51,320 --> 01:24:54,680
stakes that they're playing for he would try to be a little bit more patient.

769
01:24:54,680 --> 01:25:02,080
But I'd say that Pepper Tom is trying his patience.

770
01:25:02,080 --> 01:25:05,880
Is there a double right on the right field line as I saw it it kicked up the white.

771
01:25:05,880 --> 01:25:12,440
But Pepper Tom was trying to claim it hit outside.

772
01:25:12,440 --> 01:25:23,080
So we've got the tying run at second base if you go away don't go away very far because

773
01:25:23,080 --> 01:25:24,080
this thing ain't over yet.

774
01:25:24,080 --> 01:25:32,280
That's a three two ball game a line double right on the line to house it right.

775
01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:36,600
This gets some on in and we have the tying run at second and no man retired here in the

776
01:25:36,600 --> 01:25:37,600
sixth inning.

777
01:25:37,600 --> 01:25:41,400
The batter is Leon Wagner and he popped it up at the short fly ball that trashed the

778
01:25:41,400 --> 01:25:42,400
left fielders under.

779
01:25:42,400 --> 01:25:51,320
He has a ball that pretty high.

780
01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:57,040
Now the run that Howard scored the third inning is the difference.

781
01:25:57,040 --> 01:26:00,560
And Austin is out there now talking to Downing.

782
01:26:00,560 --> 01:26:02,360
Yogi has his bullpen going.

783
01:26:02,360 --> 01:26:07,440
As we said earlier the only guy who won't be down there if he needs him is Whitey.

784
01:26:07,440 --> 01:26:14,520
He did his job last night and he really did it.

785
01:26:14,520 --> 01:26:21,920
Max Alves the third baseman who can hurt you right handed batter doubles by Simone and

786
01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:30,560
housing three to New York.

787
01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:33,920
There's a ball hit high back in the left center just going back.

788
01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:34,920
He can't get it.

789
01:26:34,920 --> 01:26:37,680
Alves is hit for an extra base hitters off the scoreboard.

790
01:26:37,680 --> 01:26:44,640
There's a tying run coming in and Alves is coming into third base for a triple.

791
01:26:44,640 --> 01:26:54,120
All tied three and three.

792
01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:58,320
He hit that one and this gets Yogi out of the dugout.

793
01:26:58,320 --> 01:27:17,040
Nicholson and Ramon surrender both hand Yogi is marching out to the mound.

794
01:27:17,040 --> 01:27:18,280
Pepper Don is there at the mound.

795
01:27:18,280 --> 01:27:19,280
Howard is there also.

796
01:27:19,280 --> 01:27:22,280
Yogi has his arms folded now.

797
01:27:22,280 --> 01:27:24,800
He hasn't made a move for the bullpen yet.

798
01:27:24,800 --> 01:27:32,320
We don't know whether he will or not.

799
01:27:32,320 --> 01:27:33,320
Nope he's walking away.

800
01:27:33,320 --> 01:27:34,320
He's leaving at the downing.

801
01:27:34,320 --> 01:27:40,520
A triple by Alves and a big one.

802
01:27:40,520 --> 01:27:44,520
Trash went back as far as he could and left center and the ball simply sailed on past

803
01:27:44,520 --> 01:27:48,800
him and bounced off the left center field auxiliary scoreboard.

804
01:27:48,800 --> 01:27:56,200
That's a big blow here at this ballpark.

805
01:27:56,200 --> 01:27:59,880
Now I have Johnny Romano who has been up twice and struck out the Yankees draw the infield

806
01:27:59,880 --> 01:28:06,920
in and they are ruling very much the fact that they didn't harvest the crop that was

807
01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:08,960
there in the first inning.

808
01:28:08,960 --> 01:28:09,960
They had that chance.

809
01:28:09,960 --> 01:28:12,280
He might say to put it away.

810
01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:21,680
Wait a minute now Howard is talking with umpire Rice.

811
01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:24,480
Just a moment Rice is most thing Pepper Don to go back to first base.

812
01:28:24,480 --> 01:28:26,640
Pepper Don has started over to the mound.

813
01:28:26,640 --> 01:28:29,720
What the umpire is trying to do is get the ballgame going.

814
01:28:29,720 --> 01:28:34,280
Now wait here comes Yogi and apparently the stall was on and that's what the umpire now

815
01:28:34,280 --> 01:28:38,800
Pepper Don says something to Rice and Rice is warning him.

816
01:28:38,800 --> 01:28:41,080
Don't say anymore.

817
01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:44,120
Yogi apparently wanted a few more pitches in the bullpen.

818
01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:51,720
Of course the umpires are not at all aware of what clubs do at a time like this.

819
01:28:51,720 --> 01:28:57,600
It's all a complete surprise to them.

820
01:28:57,600 --> 01:29:00,560
Well Yogi has got to take him out now because he's not there for the second time.

821
01:29:00,560 --> 01:29:03,520
He's got the ball.

822
01:29:03,520 --> 01:29:08,240
This is all for downing and Yogi sends him and give him a pat on the backside and downing

823
01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:12,560
and then he walks away.

824
01:29:12,560 --> 01:29:26,080
Okay Al is out after five and a third innings.

825
01:29:26,080 --> 01:29:29,120
The Indians caught up with him in the sixth.

826
01:29:29,120 --> 01:29:31,320
No two ways about that.

827
01:29:31,320 --> 01:29:37,120
A double by Samoan a line double by Hauser and a big triple by Alves running down to

828
01:29:37,120 --> 01:29:40,760
The bullpen for Cleveland is Tion.

829
01:29:40,760 --> 01:29:45,560
I told you nobody's holding anything back.

830
01:29:45,560 --> 01:29:51,320
I mean Tevitz is simply infuriated that the way this season is going with the Yankees.

831
01:29:51,320 --> 01:29:52,320
This is Louis Tion.

832
01:29:52,320 --> 01:29:55,320
We're just his top pitcher right now.

833
01:29:55,320 --> 01:30:01,480
He's going to the bullpen right now that they're not the Indians have got the ballgame even

834
01:30:01,480 --> 01:30:05,160
have it said before the game he said people ask me who's my pitcher for tomorrow.

835
01:30:05,160 --> 01:30:07,400
He said look you tell me what I've got to do today.

836
01:30:07,400 --> 01:30:10,920
I know I've got the user and I'll tell you who it fits tomorrow.

837
01:30:10,920 --> 01:30:15,560
Now you may have had in mind Tion tomorrow to start or you may not but he has gone to

838
01:30:15,560 --> 01:30:19,000
The bullpen right now.

839
01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:24,040
The Yankees had their chance in the first inning when they had two runs in and the base

840
01:30:24,040 --> 01:30:25,400
is loaded and nobody out.

841
01:30:25,400 --> 01:30:26,400
Pepper tone hit an infield.

842
01:30:26,400 --> 01:30:27,400
I was automatically out.

843
01:30:27,400 --> 01:30:33,160
Trish hit an infield five was automatically out and boy a pop to the second base and there

844
01:30:33,160 --> 01:30:36,800
went the should we say the opportunity.

845
01:30:36,800 --> 01:30:46,160
Pete Mickelson has gone on to all right hander a rookie who's had a sound year three three

846
01:30:46,160 --> 01:30:49,720
ball game runner at third base one out.

847
01:30:49,720 --> 01:30:56,600
Otherwise, Mickelson has nothing to think over and while he is warming up we will pause

848
01:30:56,600 --> 01:30:59,240
for station identification.

849
01:30:59,240 --> 01:31:03,880
Here a Broadway doubleheader during music of Broadway starting at 915 tomorrow morning

850
01:31:03,880 --> 01:31:17,280
here on WCBS and WCBS FM New York.

851
01:31:17,280 --> 01:31:21,680
Here in the sixth inning Mickelson will be pitching first of all to John Romano a boy

852
01:31:21,680 --> 01:31:25,040
from across the river over in New Jersey.

853
01:31:25,040 --> 01:31:26,040
Then what he held.

854
01:31:26,040 --> 01:31:34,760
We have the runner at third and a three three ball game and the Indians are just simply

855
01:31:34,760 --> 01:31:41,120
anguished at their fate with the Yankees this year and want to do something about it while

856
01:31:41,120 --> 01:31:43,400
they still have a chance.

857
01:31:43,400 --> 01:31:50,920
You can understand that aside from the fact that a ballclub always wants to win and we

858
01:31:50,920 --> 01:32:02,760
understand that the Mets are really tearing up the P pass down at St. Louis.

859
01:32:02,760 --> 01:32:06,320
KC Stengel assigned his contract for next year and the way he's going he may see to

860
01:32:06,320 --> 01:32:10,040
it that Johnny King doesn't get a chance to sign one.

861
01:32:10,040 --> 01:32:14,760
Now Romano's up swings at a sinker like one.

862
01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:18,320
Mickelson on the mound.

863
01:32:18,320 --> 01:32:19,720
He's been a busy boy.

864
01:32:19,720 --> 01:32:22,240
This is game number 50.

865
01:32:22,240 --> 01:32:26,120
He has won six and lost four.

866
01:32:26,120 --> 01:32:33,800
He has been strictly a bullpen man.

867
01:32:33,800 --> 01:32:39,560
Infield up runner at third one down the right hander pitches low outside and it is a ball.

868
01:32:39,560 --> 01:32:46,040
Mickelson wearing glasses.

869
01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:50,320
The throw side on his ball has a pronounced tendency to sink.

870
01:32:50,320 --> 01:32:51,320
Actually he hurt his arm.

871
01:32:51,320 --> 01:32:53,320
He originally was an overhand pitcher.

872
01:32:53,320 --> 01:32:55,120
He couldn't throw overhand anymore.

873
01:32:55,120 --> 01:32:59,080
Had to throw a side arm and the sinker just came with a new pitching motion.

874
01:32:59,080 --> 01:33:03,880
So he regards the injury as a blessing.

875
01:33:03,880 --> 01:33:15,000
After straight away the right hander delivers and as a ground ball foul softened to the

876
01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:16,280
third base coach solid image.

877
01:33:16,280 --> 01:33:17,280
He must look at it.

878
01:33:17,280 --> 01:33:18,280
Throw it out to the mound.

879
01:33:18,280 --> 01:33:19,280
Elm of our coaching at first.

880
01:33:19,280 --> 01:33:28,640
They drawn in Yankee and field is Puppet on and I'll say that Stevens was very patient

881
01:33:28,640 --> 01:33:32,640
with him just now.

882
01:33:32,640 --> 01:33:36,960
Richardson lens who is doing magnificently.

883
01:33:36,960 --> 01:33:39,680
Go back right.

884
01:33:39,680 --> 01:33:43,520
And Boya trash Maris Madeline the out.

885
01:33:43,520 --> 01:33:45,120
Howard giving the side back of the plate.

886
01:33:45,120 --> 01:33:50,000
Relief pitcher Mickelson in position.

887
01:33:50,000 --> 01:33:53,840
One two pitch swung on a ground ball a short and then knocked it all down.

888
01:33:53,840 --> 01:34:00,000
Recovered throws over the first and time to get Romano and hold the runner at third base.

889
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:03,560
The ball bounced up and hit lens in the chest.

890
01:34:03,560 --> 01:34:07,600
Had it had there been a swifter runner he couldn't have made the play but he did make

891
01:34:07,600 --> 01:34:08,600
it on John.

892
01:34:08,600 --> 01:34:17,200
He was trying to discourage his running speed but nevertheless there was a situation and

893
01:34:17,200 --> 01:34:21,760
a rather important one.

894
01:34:21,760 --> 01:34:25,560
Woody hell went up there and now I think he's going to be called back for a hitter.

895
01:34:25,560 --> 01:34:31,440
This looks like a big Bob chance.

896
01:34:31,440 --> 01:34:36,920
Big strong left handed batter.

897
01:34:36,920 --> 01:34:43,200
He's hitting 279.

898
01:34:43,200 --> 01:34:44,200
In the seventh inning.

899
01:34:44,200 --> 01:34:46,760
Clouse is at a home run for the Mets with two on.

900
01:34:46,760 --> 01:34:52,080
Christopher's hit one in the seventh and nobody on and the Mets are still going.

901
01:34:52,080 --> 01:34:56,840
One of their happiest days in three years.

902
01:34:56,840 --> 01:35:06,080
While they are moaning just the other side of the Mississippi.

903
01:35:06,080 --> 01:35:10,640
Do you remember when St. Louis was referred to as the only major league team west of the

904
01:35:10,640 --> 01:35:20,320
Mississippi River.

905
01:35:20,320 --> 01:35:23,400
Cincinnati is not playing today.

906
01:35:23,400 --> 01:35:24,720
San Francisco playing later.

907
01:35:24,720 --> 01:35:27,280
Here's Bob chance up there.

908
01:35:27,280 --> 01:35:32,640
The big rookie left handed batter right on top of the plate takes low and side ball one

909
01:35:32,640 --> 01:35:34,400
chance hitting for hell.

910
01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:37,400
Who was in right field.

911
01:35:37,400 --> 01:35:41,360
So this is an easy switch for Tebbitz if he wants to make it he can put chances first

912
01:35:41,360 --> 01:35:51,120
and send first baseman some on the right.

913
01:35:51,120 --> 01:35:56,520
A swing and a mess low inside breaking ball one and one.

914
01:35:56,520 --> 01:35:57,520
We have two men out.

915
01:35:57,520 --> 01:35:58,520
The infield is back.

916
01:35:58,520 --> 01:36:08,480
The whole defense is around to the right.

917
01:36:08,480 --> 01:36:12,200
Top of the sixth inning.

918
01:36:12,200 --> 01:36:36,640
Nickerson relieving downing delivers outside and low ball to.

919
01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:50,400
To one pitch is swung on a curve strike to.

920
01:36:50,400 --> 01:36:54,040
Joe Cooper just made an observation about a major league ball club in reference to the

921
01:36:54,040 --> 01:36:56,800
Mississippi River he said the twins that's Minnesota.

922
01:36:56,800 --> 01:37:00,240
So that's the only team on both sides of the Mississippi and I have to take a little difference

923
01:37:00,240 --> 01:37:01,240
Joe.

924
01:37:01,240 --> 01:37:09,040
It's got to be on one side of the other and the twins won't admit it to two pitch change

925
01:37:09,040 --> 01:37:10,040
of face like three swinging.

926
01:37:10,040 --> 01:37:11,040
And make it get out of the jam.

927
01:37:11,040 --> 01:37:12,040
You struck him out.

928
01:37:12,040 --> 01:37:13,040
And it is two runs on three hits.

929
01:37:13,040 --> 01:37:23,760
It's an even up ballgame score in the five and a half with Mickleson making that save

930
01:37:23,760 --> 01:37:31,120
The Indians three and the Yankees three.

931
01:37:31,120 --> 01:37:38,160
It's crisp and clean like no other beer.

932
01:37:38,160 --> 01:37:43,560
Shines through the glass like frosted gold.

933
01:37:43,560 --> 01:37:49,840
Turns your thirst to a smile.

934
01:37:49,840 --> 01:37:55,240
You get a smile every time with a Valentine.

935
01:37:55,240 --> 01:37:57,560
Won't fill you up.

936
01:37:57,560 --> 01:37:59,360
Won't let you down.

937
01:37:59,360 --> 01:38:03,000
The crisp clean taste of a Valentine.

938
01:38:03,000 --> 01:38:06,000
Won't fill you up.

939
01:38:06,000 --> 01:38:08,680
Won't let you down.

940
01:38:08,680 --> 01:38:17,080
So get a smile every time with a Valentine.

941
01:38:17,080 --> 01:38:19,080
Won't fill you up.

942
01:38:19,080 --> 01:38:22,080
Won't let you down.

943
01:38:22,080 --> 01:38:25,080
Wow what a beer.

944
01:38:25,080 --> 01:38:26,080
That Valentine.

945
01:38:26,080 --> 01:38:39,080
And Tebets makes the switch.

946
01:38:39,080 --> 01:38:43,180
Chance who hit for first for right field of hell goes to first base.

947
01:38:43,180 --> 01:38:45,720
And Simone who had started at first goes to right.

948
01:38:45,720 --> 01:38:50,800
It is a three three ball game and so the Yankees have got to start all over again.

949
01:38:50,800 --> 01:38:54,640
That was a big save there by Mickleson who is now the pitcher of records.

950
01:38:54,640 --> 01:38:57,560
He's game to win or lose downing is off the hook either way.

951
01:38:57,560 --> 01:39:00,360
Back when he left the mound he couldn't be the winner.

952
01:39:00,360 --> 01:39:02,880
He might have been the loser.

953
01:39:02,880 --> 01:39:03,880
We have Boya then Mickleson.

954
01:39:03,880 --> 01:39:06,880
There's a curve ball grounded down to short.

955
01:39:06,880 --> 01:39:10,280
Hauser over to first chance for the out.

956
01:39:10,280 --> 01:39:13,280
One pitch one down.

957
01:39:13,280 --> 01:39:16,280
Last of the sixth inning.

958
01:39:16,280 --> 01:39:34,640
There is Mickleson coming on to be the batter.

959
01:39:34,640 --> 01:39:40,160
Mickleson this year had one hit.

960
01:39:40,160 --> 01:39:42,400
Lee Stang who was severely threatened.

961
01:39:42,400 --> 01:39:46,960
It looked as though you didn't see how I could survive the first inning.

962
01:39:46,960 --> 01:39:50,600
The numbers and Mickleson cuts Mrs.

963
01:39:50,600 --> 01:39:51,600
Right one.

964
01:39:51,600 --> 01:39:52,600
He's still with us.

965
01:39:52,600 --> 01:39:53,600
He's now even again.

966
01:39:53,600 --> 01:39:54,600
One strike on Mickleson hits right handed.

967
01:39:54,600 --> 01:39:55,600
Stang is the right hander kicks delivers over.

968
01:39:55,600 --> 01:39:56,600
And it is like to.

969
01:39:56,600 --> 01:40:01,600
Do you know how many rounds the Mets made in the seventh inning at St. Louis.

970
01:40:01,600 --> 01:40:12,720
Just six and now leading 15 to four.

971
01:40:12,720 --> 01:40:15,720
Over all strike three.

972
01:40:15,720 --> 01:40:19,720
This is the seventh strikeout for Stang.

973
01:40:19,720 --> 01:40:22,720
Now we have Lenz who doubled in the first inning.

974
01:40:22,720 --> 01:40:25,720
Headed to a fourth and second struck out in the third.

975
01:40:25,720 --> 01:40:32,720
In the four innings the White Sox four and the Athletics nothing.

976
01:40:32,720 --> 01:40:35,720
Curve is over.

977
01:40:35,720 --> 01:40:48,720
So the Yankees look at look at that board.

978
01:40:48,720 --> 01:40:51,720
They pretty well figure that it's up to themselves.

979
01:40:51,720 --> 01:40:56,720
Well they haven't figured out anyhow.

980
01:40:56,720 --> 01:40:58,720
Not news to them.

981
01:40:58,720 --> 01:41:03,720
There's a high drive foul in the upper left field.

982
01:41:03,720 --> 01:41:08,720
See I think the White Sox certainly have had resilience this year.

983
01:41:08,720 --> 01:41:13,720
I think they won their last seven.

984
01:41:13,720 --> 01:41:15,720
They're not letting up.

985
01:41:15,720 --> 01:41:18,720
They're not only driving first but also if they can't get that they want second.

986
01:41:18,720 --> 01:41:26,720
Considerably more money finishing second and third or at a time.

987
01:41:26,720 --> 01:41:33,720
Lenz dropped underneath the high inside fastball.

988
01:41:33,720 --> 01:41:40,720
Boys if he needed to save he got it.

989
01:41:40,720 --> 01:41:51,720
One and two now he gets back up again.

990
01:41:51,720 --> 01:42:06,720
Stang pitches and Lenz files it back and it knocked a lens off one of our cameras.

991
01:42:06,720 --> 01:42:11,720
That's what the fans are howling about.

992
01:42:11,720 --> 01:42:17,720
Now whoever holds the budget down at WPI acts I bet you had heart failure when I heard that.

993
01:42:17,720 --> 01:42:20,720
One two pitch swung on at a high fly ball in the short left.

994
01:42:20,720 --> 01:42:23,720
Here is the left field of Wagner and it drops.

995
01:42:23,720 --> 01:42:29,720
Lenz is on his way to second base and he comes in and he's there for a double.

996
01:42:29,720 --> 01:42:31,720
Wagner seemed to have the ball under control.

997
01:42:31,720 --> 01:42:35,720
Then he stopped I think he lost it in the sun.

998
01:42:35,720 --> 01:42:39,720
It dropped in front of him and it's a double for Lenz.

999
01:42:39,720 --> 01:42:42,720
Ran it out.

1000
01:42:42,720 --> 01:42:44,720
Hit number nine now for the Yankees.

1001
01:42:44,720 --> 01:42:47,720
Three three ball game.

1002
01:42:47,720 --> 01:42:51,720
Man things are happening all over the baseball front these days.

1003
01:42:51,720 --> 01:43:00,720
They had a nod one last night in the ball game at St. Louis.

1004
01:43:00,720 --> 01:43:06,720
He had a ground ball hit an umpire.

1005
01:43:06,720 --> 01:43:12,720
Very simple ruling the ball was dead because the umpire was in front of the infielder.

1006
01:43:12,720 --> 01:43:16,720
Had the umpire been behind the infielder the ball would have been in play.

1007
01:43:16,720 --> 01:43:24,720
Richardson swings and has a drive foul at the right field corner.

1008
01:43:24,720 --> 01:43:35,720
He's leading in one.

1009
01:43:35,720 --> 01:43:37,720
Of course down to the American League system of umpiring.

1010
01:43:37,720 --> 01:43:41,720
I don't think that can happen because they keep their umpires back.

1011
01:43:41,720 --> 01:43:46,720
Second base umpire was inside last night at St. Louis.

1012
01:43:46,720 --> 01:43:48,720
Richardson the ground ball to third.

1013
01:43:48,720 --> 01:43:49,720
Alves up.

1014
01:43:49,720 --> 01:43:54,720
In time to chat.

1015
01:43:54,720 --> 01:43:59,720
No one hit a sun double and left field for Lenz.

1016
01:43:59,720 --> 01:44:05,720
Totals at the end of six three runs five hits and no errors for Cleveland.

1017
01:44:05,720 --> 01:44:09,720
Three runs nine hits and no errors for New York.

1018
01:44:09,720 --> 01:44:11,720
The action carries on.

1019
01:44:11,720 --> 01:44:17,720
And right now let me say that the next portion of this game will be brought to you by Ballantine Beer.

1020
01:44:17,720 --> 01:44:20,720
Beer after beer the most refreshing around.

1021
01:44:20,720 --> 01:44:21,720
So smile.

1022
01:44:21,720 --> 01:44:27,720
Send them back and enjoy a baseball and ice cold Ballantine beer.

1023
01:44:27,720 --> 01:44:31,720
Now we have the shortstop in here.

1024
01:44:31,720 --> 01:44:35,720
But Phil is foul ball to sort of keeping folks away country.

1025
01:44:35,720 --> 01:44:42,720
They sure are and that one hit that telephoto lens over there only cost about five thousand dollars.

1026
01:44:42,720 --> 01:44:45,720
They'd rather lose a cameraman than that lens.

1027
01:44:45,720 --> 01:44:49,720
Well we've got a pressure packed ballgame right here at Yankee Stadium.

1028
01:44:49,720 --> 01:44:53,720
The Indians have come back to tie it up at 3 3.

1029
01:44:53,720 --> 01:44:56,720
Couple of other pressure packed games around.

1030
01:44:56,720 --> 01:45:01,720
And the National League the Mets came up with six runs in the seventh inning.

1031
01:45:01,720 --> 01:45:05,720
And lead the Cardinals 15 to 4 at the end of six and a half.

1032
01:45:05,720 --> 01:45:10,720
Holy cow look at those homers Altman Crane pool with two on.

1033
01:45:10,720 --> 01:45:12,720
Charlie Smith.

1034
01:45:12,720 --> 01:45:16,720
Klaus with two on and Christopher five homers by the Mets.

1035
01:45:16,720 --> 01:45:19,720
White and Boyer of home it for the Cardinals.

1036
01:45:19,720 --> 01:45:24,720
And Philadelphia and Cincinnati just sitting there laughing up a storm listening to the game.

1037
01:45:24,720 --> 01:45:26,720
They're not playing today.

1038
01:45:26,720 --> 01:45:30,720
And the American League gets Baltimore six and the Tigers six at the end of six.

1039
01:45:30,720 --> 01:45:33,720
Red Sox five Washington nothing and a five.

1040
01:45:33,720 --> 01:45:36,720
White Sox for Kansas City nothing and a four and a half.

1041
01:45:36,720 --> 01:45:39,720
And they've just put the score up on the scoreboard.

1042
01:45:39,720 --> 01:45:44,720
And you hear the fans reaction as Pete Mickelson gets ready to pitch to Vic D'Avilio.

1043
01:45:44,720 --> 01:45:51,720
It's blown away ball one D'Avilio is hit to the box and flying to center.

1044
01:45:51,720 --> 01:45:59,720
Batting 271.

1045
01:45:59,720 --> 01:46:03,720
Mickelson's next delivery swing and a miss strike one one on one.

1046
01:46:03,720 --> 01:46:07,720
Pete Mickelson who came on in a real clutch situation.

1047
01:46:07,720 --> 01:46:16,720
A runner at third and one out got Romano to bounce out to lens and struck out Bob chance batting for what he held.

1048
01:46:16,720 --> 01:46:19,720
And that's what kept this game at a 3 3 tie.

1049
01:46:19,720 --> 01:46:36,720
He runs up the bunt takes it high ball to have the same type pitch on which Mickelson had struck out chance a change up curveball.

1050
01:46:36,720 --> 01:46:46,720
Now the 2 1 delivery in their strike to call 2 and 2.

1051
01:46:46,720 --> 01:46:51,720
This time of the year and this time of the day here at Yankee Stadium is tough to pick up that ball from the pitcher.

1052
01:46:51,720 --> 01:46:59,720
The shadows have completely covered the pitching box and home plate to pitch ground ball to the right side.

1053
01:46:59,720 --> 01:47:07,720
And that was right has it and that was waiting for Mickelson to come over.

1054
01:47:07,720 --> 01:47:14,720
That's what I'm going to make the play and then realize that Mickelson couldn't get there and tried to beat D'Avilio couldn't do it.

1055
01:47:14,720 --> 01:47:17,720
And that goes as an infield single.

1056
01:47:17,720 --> 01:47:20,720
What a weird play.

1057
01:47:20,720 --> 01:47:25,720
The Yankees got a break on a similar play in the first inning when Richardson butted.

1058
01:47:25,720 --> 01:47:33,720
The pitcher staying through to the first baseman Simone who caught the ball and then went to tag the bag and Richardson beat him to the bag.

1059
01:47:33,720 --> 01:47:39,720
And that play cost the Indians two runs the Yankees scored two runs in that first inning.

1060
01:47:39,720 --> 01:47:47,720
And Tito Frank Conor is going to bat for Billy Moran as Bertie Tebbott's going all out to win this ballgame.

1061
01:47:47,720 --> 01:47:54,720
As you know there's no team in baseball that likes the pennant winning team to win the pennant against their team.

1062
01:47:54,720 --> 01:47:58,720
They figure it kind of leaves a black eye.

1063
01:47:58,720 --> 01:48:04,720
So Tebbott's is going all out to thwart the Yankees in their attempt to wrap it up today.

1064
01:48:04,720 --> 01:48:14,720
Tito Frank Conor batting 249 has 12 doubles two triples eight homers and 24 runs batted in.

1065
01:48:14,720 --> 01:48:21,720
Left hand batter which makes the double play that much tougher.

1066
01:48:21,720 --> 01:48:25,720
Davileo who can fly is at first base.

1067
01:48:25,720 --> 01:48:32,720
He has 21 stolen bases.

1068
01:48:32,720 --> 01:48:35,720
Frank Conor digs in at home plate.

1069
01:48:35,720 --> 01:48:42,720
Davileo with a short lead at first. Pepitone holding him on.

1070
01:48:42,720 --> 01:48:45,720
Here's a stretch. Boyer is in at third.

1071
01:48:45,720 --> 01:48:51,720
Pitch to Frank Conor swinging a miss strike one.

1072
01:48:51,720 --> 01:48:58,720
Frank Conor steps back gets a little dirt.

1073
01:48:58,720 --> 01:49:05,720
Now he looks down at Sally Hema's coaching at third. Boyer is way in at third base.

1074
01:49:05,720 --> 01:49:09,720
Lins and Richardson have shortened up a couple of steps at short and second.

1075
01:49:09,720 --> 01:49:13,720
The stretch.

1076
01:49:13,720 --> 01:49:18,720
The pitch. A line drive. Beautiful play by Pepitone. Double play.

1077
01:49:18,720 --> 01:49:22,720
So Pepitone.

1078
01:49:22,720 --> 01:49:26,720
Oh it's feeling a little punk.

1079
01:49:26,720 --> 01:49:29,720
By letting Davileo beat out that rounder to him.

1080
01:49:29,720 --> 01:49:36,720
Leap high in the air to take a double away from Frank Conor and Davileo could possibly have scored on that ball.

1081
01:49:36,720 --> 01:49:43,720
It was heading down in the right field corner and Pepitone turns it into a double play.

1082
01:49:43,720 --> 01:49:48,720
So two quick outs and here's Lee Stang. He sacrificed and bounced to the shortstop.

1083
01:49:48,720 --> 01:49:52,720
Hitting 0-6-0.

1084
01:49:52,720 --> 01:49:55,720
A thriller here at Yankee Stadium today.

1085
01:49:55,720 --> 01:50:01,720
3-3 in the top of the seventh. The pitch is in there. Strike one call.

1086
01:50:01,720 --> 01:50:11,720
And had Pepitone not been holding Davileo on the bag at first that ball would have been in for a double right down the line.

1087
01:50:11,720 --> 01:50:21,720
Curve over. Strike two. Call. Nothing and two.

1088
01:50:21,720 --> 01:50:31,720
Yankee Mantle playing a very shallow right field against the right hand hitting Stang. Curve outside. One ball two strikes.

1089
01:50:31,720 --> 01:50:38,720
White Sox lead Kansas City 5-0 now at the end of five. Red Sox lead Washington 5-0 end of five.

1090
01:50:38,720 --> 01:50:41,720
And Baltimore and Detroit tied 6-6 end of six.

1091
01:50:41,720 --> 01:50:46,720
And it's the Mets 15 and the Cardinals four at the end of seven.

1092
01:50:46,720 --> 01:51:06,720
And the win delivers. It's outside with the curve. Two and two. On deck Chico Simone.

1093
01:51:06,720 --> 01:51:20,720
Two delivery. Low ball three. Full count.

1094
01:51:20,720 --> 01:51:28,720
Three balls. Two strikes. Two out. Nobody on. The payoff pitch. Low ball four.

1095
01:51:28,720 --> 01:51:34,720
Stang took it. It was close. First walk allowed by Mickelson.

1096
01:51:34,720 --> 01:51:39,720
Stang at first with two out. Here's Chico Simone. Fly to right. Single a center and double a left.

1097
01:51:39,720 --> 01:51:45,720
He has scored a run and driven in a run.

1098
01:51:45,720 --> 01:51:49,720
Well Holy Cross was leading Syracuse 8-0 at the half.

1099
01:51:49,720 --> 01:51:57,720
But Syracuse bounced back with 34 points in the second half and defeated Holy Cross 34-8.

1100
01:51:57,720 --> 01:52:05,720
In case you're wondering why you're not hearing the voice of the Yankees, Mel Allen the last two days, he was up there doing this game.

1101
01:52:05,720 --> 01:52:15,720
First pitch to Simone is in there. Strike one call.

1102
01:52:15,720 --> 01:52:19,720
Pepitone holds first against Stang. Stretch by Mickelson.

1103
01:52:19,720 --> 01:52:25,720
Pitch to the right hand hitter. Foul in back of the plate. Strike two.

1104
01:52:25,720 --> 01:52:40,720
Simone is batting 3-10. He's been a pleasant surprise for Bertie Tebbott and the Indians.

1105
01:52:40,720 --> 01:52:45,720
On deck Dick Hauser. Here's the stretch.

1106
01:52:45,720 --> 01:53:07,720
From outside he held up. One ball two strikes.

1107
01:53:07,720 --> 01:53:15,720
And the game with a short lead at first base. Mickelson checks him. Delivers a curved strike.

1108
01:53:15,720 --> 01:53:19,720
That good change up curve ball again.

1109
01:53:19,720 --> 01:53:25,720
And for the Indians in the top of the seventh, no runs, one hit. No Yankee errors, one man left.

1110
01:53:25,720 --> 01:53:29,720
At the end of six and a half, Cleveland three and the Yankees three.

1111
01:53:29,720 --> 01:53:41,720
It comes off the ice sparkling cold.

1112
01:53:41,720 --> 01:53:46,720
It's smooth and satisfying all the way.

1113
01:53:46,720 --> 01:54:00,720
Go ahead, enjoy the best.

1114
01:54:00,720 --> 01:54:16,720
The crisp clean taste of a Valentine.

1115
01:54:16,720 --> 01:54:35,720
Won't fill you up. Won't let you down. What a beer. That Valentine.

1116
01:54:35,720 --> 01:54:47,720
For the Indians Tito Francona has stayed in the game to play right field. And Larry Brown has moved into play second base.

1117
01:54:47,720 --> 01:54:59,720
So Francona will be hitting in the eighth position in the lineup. And Larry Brown will be hitting in the lead off spot.

1118
01:54:59,720 --> 01:55:07,720
Roger Maris steps in. Maris's walk struck out and bounced out to the pitcher batting 281.

1119
01:55:07,720 --> 01:55:13,720
Lee Stang who got off to a real shaky start.

1120
01:55:13,720 --> 01:55:19,720
And then they're all the way for Cleveland. His pitch to Maris is a curve outside ball one.

1121
01:55:19,720 --> 01:55:30,720
A 3-3 ball game in the bottom of the seventh.

1122
01:55:30,720 --> 01:55:51,720
Stang delivers a foul tip back. Strike one, one-on-one.

1123
01:55:51,720 --> 01:55:58,720
Here's the one-one. Pitch a curve. Popped in the air. The shortstop Dickhouser right near second base. Makes the catch.

1124
01:55:58,720 --> 01:56:12,720
Maris hit that one right off his fist. One out. Here's Mickey Maddell.

1125
01:56:12,720 --> 01:56:24,720
Mickey doubled with the bases loaded in the first inning driving in two runs then hit to the box and struck out batting 303.

1126
01:56:24,720 --> 01:56:40,720
Stang's pitch is on the inside corner. Strike one called.

1127
01:56:40,720 --> 01:57:06,720
The first ball fouled and the upper deck strike two. On deck Elston Hart.

1128
01:57:06,720 --> 01:57:26,720
Stang ready. Right handed delivers a curve low gets back to the screen. One ball two strikes.

1129
01:57:26,720 --> 01:57:37,720
Now Stang delivers. Foul again back in the upper deck.

1130
01:57:37,720 --> 01:57:57,720
Nobody on in the last half of the seventh inning.

1131
01:57:57,720 --> 01:58:11,720
Lee Stang ready. His curve is popped foul outside a third near the stands and goes back too far for Alvis to reach.

1132
01:58:11,720 --> 01:58:30,720
Still one ball two strikes on Mickey.

1133
01:58:30,720 --> 01:58:43,720
All right Stang gets set out on the mound. Fires it in. It's inside. Romano started to throw the ball to third base now with his hands on his hips talking to Johnny Rice.

1134
01:58:43,720 --> 01:59:01,720
The count is even at two and two.

1135
01:59:01,720 --> 01:59:21,720
Here's Stang's two to delivery. Little bit low ball three and this time Stang and Romano did not agree with Johnny Rice a full count on Mantle.

1136
01:59:21,720 --> 01:59:31,720
Three three ball game here in the bottom of the seventh one out nobody on. Stang ready now for the payoff pitch to Mantle.

1137
01:59:31,720 --> 01:59:41,720
Foul down the left field line near the stands and going back into the stands out of play.

1138
01:59:41,720 --> 01:59:51,720
All hit off a fan's hands and bounce back onto the field Larry now picks it up says we need a new ball in play.

1139
01:59:51,720 --> 02:00:07,720
But Stang does not like the ball that Johnny Rice to him he wants another.

1140
02:00:07,720 --> 02:00:20,720
So we'll have the three to pitch all over again to Mantle.

1141
02:00:20,720 --> 02:00:26,720
Here is the payoff pitch fouled again out of play.

1142
02:00:26,720 --> 02:00:37,720
Off the upper deck and down below and it hit the guide wire just as it was coming into the stands and bounce back onto the field.

1143
02:00:37,720 --> 02:00:53,720
Little horse play at home played with Madeline Romano.

1144
02:00:53,720 --> 02:00:57,720
All right Stang ready again.

1145
02:00:57,720 --> 02:01:10,720
He kicks delivers it's high ball.

1146
02:01:10,720 --> 02:01:16,720
The third walk given up by Lee Stang his first since the first inning when he walked two men.

1147
02:01:16,720 --> 02:01:25,720
One of those walks was intentional to Howard who is up now. Elias walk single and struck out batting 313.

1148
02:01:25,720 --> 02:01:32,720
Bob Chance holds first against Mantle.

1149
02:01:32,720 --> 02:01:54,720
Stretch by Stang pitches low with a curve ball one.

1150
02:01:54,720 --> 02:02:14,720
The deck leads away at first. Stang's pitches over the inside corner one on one and Howard was not happy with that.

1151
02:02:14,720 --> 02:02:18,720
One on one on Elston Howard.

1152
02:02:18,720 --> 02:02:25,720
Stang to the set position his pitch is low knocked down by Romano two balls and a strike.

1153
02:02:25,720 --> 02:02:34,720
Time is called and while time is called we'll pause for station identification.

1154
02:02:34,720 --> 02:02:51,720
Here a Broadway doubleheader on Lee Jordan's music of Broadway tomorrow morning at 915 on WCBS and WCBS FM New York.

1155
02:02:51,720 --> 02:02:55,720
I were ready to go two balls one strike on Howard one out three three the score.

1156
02:02:55,720 --> 02:03:04,720
The first one to be a man at first were in the bottom of the seven.

1157
02:03:04,720 --> 02:03:07,720
Here's a stretch pitch a ground ball a short.

1158
02:03:07,720 --> 02:03:12,720
Alvis cuts in front of the throws in time to force Madeline second just did get him.

1159
02:03:12,720 --> 02:03:18,720
And it's a good thing Alvis cut in front of Dick Hauser or they've never got mad at second base.

1160
02:03:18,720 --> 02:03:38,720
And the better now with Howard at first will be Pepitone who is popped a second single and bounced a second Joe batting 250.

1161
02:03:38,720 --> 02:03:44,720
Chance not playing Howard real close to the bag.

1162
02:03:44,720 --> 02:03:48,720
The stretch in the pitch to Pepitone a foul back out of play.

1163
02:03:48,720 --> 02:04:08,720
Back of the plate one strike on Joe.

1164
02:04:08,720 --> 02:04:19,720
On deck Tommy Tresh to out Howard leading off first staying ready his pitches low.

1165
02:04:19,720 --> 02:04:37,720
The counts even at one to one.

1166
02:04:37,720 --> 02:04:43,720
Stang now ready for the one one pitch swing ground ball a second base up with it Larry Brown.

1167
02:04:43,720 --> 02:04:45,720
Let's the chance for the out.

1168
02:04:45,720 --> 02:04:47,720
That's all for the Yankees in the bottom of the seven.

1169
02:04:47,720 --> 02:04:59,720
No runs no hits no Indian errors one man left and at the end of seven it's Cleveland three in the Yankees three the National League at the end of seven and a half the Mets 15 the Cardinals four.

1170
02:04:59,720 --> 02:05:02,720
I'll say that again for those of you might have fell off your seats.

1171
02:05:02,720 --> 02:05:13,720
The Mets 15 and the Cardinals for the end of seven and a half Pittsburgh and Milwaukee just getting underway as is Chicago at San Francisco Houston at Los Angeles tonight.

1172
02:05:13,720 --> 02:05:27,720
Philadelphia and Cincinnati not scheduled and they must really be enjoying this day off with the Mets holding a 11 run lead playing the eighth inning out in St. Louis.

1173
02:05:27,720 --> 02:05:36,720
For the Indians it'll be Dick house a Leon Wagner and Max Elvis to face Pete Mickelson.

1174
02:05:36,720 --> 02:05:42,720
Mickelson who came on in the sixth inning to relieve Al Downing.

1175
02:05:42,720 --> 02:05:43,720
Ready to go.

1176
02:05:43,720 --> 02:05:49,720
How's her is two for two he walked singled and doubled he is driven in a run and scored a run.

1177
02:05:49,720 --> 02:05:59,720
How's about in 256.

1178
02:05:59,720 --> 02:06:15,720
This is the top of the eighth inning.

1179
02:06:15,720 --> 02:06:23,720
All right Mickelson toes the rubber gets the sign from Elson Howard.

1180
02:06:23,720 --> 02:06:38,720
First pitch the house here is taken strike one call.

1181
02:06:38,720 --> 02:06:58,720
Mickelson's next pitch low and away with the curve one on one.

1182
02:06:58,720 --> 02:07:03,720
Here's the one one pitch low and inside ball to two a month.

1183
02:07:03,720 --> 02:07:18,720
Boyer is playing in a third house again get down that line he has 20 stolen bases.

1184
02:07:18,720 --> 02:07:21,720
Time is called.

1185
02:07:21,720 --> 02:07:25,720
Just as Mickelson was ready to deliver the pitch.

1186
02:07:25,720 --> 02:07:34,720
The inning had come down from the upper deck right around the batter's box and Johnny Rice quickly called time.

1187
02:07:34,720 --> 02:07:39,720
Little things like that flying around the batter's box can affect the batter.

1188
02:07:39,720 --> 02:07:41,720
More so than the pitcher in a spot like this.

1189
02:07:41,720 --> 02:07:57,720
All right here's a two one delivery inside ball three three and one.

1190
02:07:57,720 --> 02:08:05,720
Mickelson kicks delivers it's right down the road it's not Johnny Rice started to lift the right hand and pulled it down quickly.

1191
02:08:05,720 --> 02:08:14,720
It's ball for that ball must have really been a sharp sinker.

1192
02:08:14,720 --> 02:08:16,720
And now Leon Wagner is coming up.

1193
02:08:16,720 --> 02:08:28,720
Bertie Tibbets came out of the dugout to talk to Wagner Wagner's 0 for 3 struck out bounce the first fly to left hitting 255.

1194
02:08:28,720 --> 02:08:30,720
Boya moves way in a third.

1195
02:08:30,720 --> 02:08:40,720
Capiton holding first against Howser let's see what Bertie Tibbets has up his managerial sleeve right now.

1196
02:08:40,720 --> 02:08:42,720
The stretch by Mickelson.

1197
02:08:42,720 --> 02:08:50,720
Pitch to Wagner swings and misses strike one.

1198
02:08:50,720 --> 02:08:58,720
Now Wagner looks down at Sally Hamas coaching a third.

1199
02:08:58,720 --> 02:09:04,920
A lot of times the manager will let a slugger swing at one pitch and then go to bond on the next one throw to first house a bag

1200
02:09:06,280 --> 02:09:09,400
Score is tied here three three. Nobody out in the top of the eighth

1201
02:09:11,760 --> 02:09:15,960
Stretch by Mickelson his pitch swing and a miss strike two

1202
02:09:15,960 --> 02:09:19,960
Oh

1203
02:09:25,400 --> 02:09:32,160
Now let's see if Mickelson uses that change-up curveball of his that's been quite effective for him since he's been in this ballgame

1204
02:09:32,160 --> 02:09:34,160
Got two strikeouts with it

1205
02:09:40,600 --> 02:09:42,600
Right hander stretches

1206
02:09:42,600 --> 02:09:48,400
Low and inside one ball two strikes. He didn't use it on that pitch. That was a sinker

1207
02:09:48,400 --> 02:10:00,400
Oh

1208
02:10:02,440 --> 02:10:07,920
Mickelson gets the sign from Howard he sets throw over the first how's her his back

1209
02:10:07,920 --> 02:10:21,480
Now Peter's ready delivers a foul just got a piece of that ball

1210
02:10:21,480 --> 02:10:33,480
Still one and two on Wagner

1211
02:10:33,480 --> 02:10:49,920
Nobody out and how's her at first score tied three three

1212
02:10:49,920 --> 02:11:01,840
Mickelson's change-up curve popped in the air in the infield boy a right at the mound is there he one hands it

1213
02:11:01,840 --> 02:11:19,520
And that'll bring up Max Alvis Alvis has bounced a short struck out and tripled to deep left field

1214
02:11:19,520 --> 02:11:25,520
Max Alvis batting at 253

1215
02:11:25,520 --> 02:11:33,520
Right hand batter

1216
02:11:33,520 --> 02:11:44,520
Throw to first base houses back. He's dancing off first bothering at Mickelson a little bit on deck Johnny Romano

1217
02:11:44,520 --> 02:11:59,520
Here's a stretch another throw over there how's her is back

1218
02:12:01,520 --> 02:12:03,520
Now the stretch

1219
02:12:03,520 --> 02:12:13,520
Pitch swing and a miss the runners going and he's hung up between first and second Richardson the pep it's on to Richardson the pep it's on a bluffs and in

1220
02:12:13,520 --> 02:12:23,520
That was a delayed by Dick Howser, but how it was alert for it and his perfect throw to Richardson

1221
02:12:23,520 --> 02:12:33,520
Hung them up between first and second for a little while there looked like Richardson and pepper Toma just playing catch throwing it back and forth, but they get how's her

1222
02:12:33,520 --> 02:12:45,520
Two to four to three to four to three so it's two out a one strike count on Max Alvis

1223
02:12:45,520 --> 02:12:53,520
Slow curve over strike two call

1224
02:12:53,520 --> 02:13:16,520
Mickelson pitching with his full wind up now gets the sign from Howard to strike pitch swing and a miss strike three

1225
02:13:16,520 --> 02:13:26,520
For the Indians no runs no hits no Yankee errors nobody left at the end of seven and a half Cleveland three and the Yankees three

1226
02:13:26,520 --> 02:13:31,520
Let's hear some claps

1227
02:13:31,520 --> 02:13:38,520
Here's a great new way to buy your bottle of beer new Valentine's clip caps are here

1228
02:13:38,520 --> 02:13:46,520
There is snap to open pull out up and over the handy way no bottle opener

1229
02:13:46,520 --> 02:13:58,520
That's right beer bottles you open without a bottle opener you Valentine clip caps there are snaps to open like I said pull out up and over then for yourself a Valentine

1230
02:13:58,520 --> 02:14:13,520
Wow what a beer won't fill you up won't let you down gives you a smile every time and here's something extra to smile about Valentine's clip cap bottles are no deposit no return

1231
02:14:13,520 --> 02:14:33,520
Go get Valentine clip caps don't delay get them in the six pack right away get Valentine beer and you flip cap bottles there is snap to open

1232
02:14:33,520 --> 02:14:44,520
In the bottom of the eighth inning Tommy Trash leads off of the Yankees Tommy's over three pop the short fly to center and struck out batting two forty seven a 3 3 ballgame

1233
02:14:44,520 --> 02:15:02,520
While the Cardinals scored a run in the eighth inning it's 15 to 5 in favor of the Mets they got a long road to hold their out in St. Louis

1234
02:15:02,520 --> 02:15:27,520
Lee staying ready to pitch to Tommy Trash curve hit foul outside of first strike one on deck lead boy and then Mickelson will follow

1235
02:15:27,520 --> 02:15:41,520
Fastball hit on the ground foul again outside of first nothing into on trash Yankees have nine base hits but they got eight of those hits in the first three innings and they got one in the sixth

1236
02:15:41,520 --> 02:15:56,520
Stang has really settled down they had him on the ropes in the first inning Yankees scored two and then had the bases loaded with nobody out but staying got out of it to strike pitch curve

1237
02:15:56,520 --> 02:16:16,520
Pulled foul outside of first again still nothing in two

1238
02:16:16,520 --> 02:16:26,520
Here's a two strike pitch low and inside one ball two strikes

1239
02:16:26,520 --> 02:16:40,520
Goodness for a more perfect day for a ballgame

1240
02:16:40,520 --> 02:16:58,520
Stang gets it outside and the count is even at two and two

1241
02:16:58,520 --> 02:17:09,520
Here's his two to delivery ground ball a second base Larry Brown and the big hop flips the chance it's one out

1242
02:17:09,520 --> 02:17:23,520
It brings up Boyer cleat pop to second and single left field in the third with two out to drive in a run check that with one out at the time and that run was the third run the Yankees scored

1243
02:17:23,520 --> 02:17:32,520
Then in the sixth inning Boyer bounced a short he's one for three batting to 18 and Johnny Blanchett has come in the on deck circle.

1244
02:17:32,520 --> 02:17:57,520
So it looks like Mickelson will not come up to bat pitch to Boyer is low ball one and it could be that Pedro Ramos is heating up in the bullpen

1245
02:17:57,520 --> 02:18:13,520
Two balls no strikes now on cleat Boyer Pedro Ramos is heating up in the Yankee bullpen

1246
02:18:13,520 --> 02:18:21,520
It's two balls no strikes on Boyer staying into the windup pitches it's a ground ball in the hole a base hit to left field

1247
02:18:21,520 --> 02:18:37,520
Boyer round first Wagner up with it and fires it on in and cleat is on with a single and the batter is Johnny Blanchard batting for Pete Mickelson

1248
02:18:37,520 --> 02:18:59,520
Mickelson hit an excellent outstanding job in relief Blanchard batting to thirty seven eight double seven home is twenty eight runs batted in on deck fill in

1249
02:18:59,520 --> 02:19:28,520
Boyer at first with one out the stretch by staying pitch to Blanchard is low scooped out of the dirt by Johnny Romano ball one

1250
02:19:28,520 --> 02:19:43,520
Here's a stretch pitch pop foul coming near the stands and just back into the first row of box seats alongside the Indian dugout Romano could not reach it

1251
02:19:43,520 --> 02:20:08,520
And it's a one on Blanchard that ballgame is over out in St. Louis the Mets have defeated the Cardinals 15 to five Parsons is the winner and it looks like Sadecki is the loser

1252
02:20:08,520 --> 02:20:22,520
So Philadelphia and Cincinnati will have a good night's sleep tonight as they go into that final day of that National League pennant race that could end up in a three or possibly four way tie

1253
02:20:22,520 --> 02:20:37,520
How do you like that. I hate to explain that playoff situation that could develop. All right. Here's the stretch by staying the pitch to Blanchard hit high in the air to right field

1254
02:20:37,520 --> 02:20:58,520
But Tito Frank corner is moving in under it and he's got it. Blanchard flies to right field to out. That's right. Joe Cooper has just reminded me that either Philadelphia or Cincinnati will be eliminated tomorrow

1255
02:20:58,520 --> 02:21:13,520
Depending on who wins or loses the game. All right. Here's Phil Lynn's doubled bounce the short struck out and then doubled in the sixth two for four both of them doubled lens batting to 51

1256
02:21:13,520 --> 02:21:42,520
Boyer at first with two out the stretch by staying pitch to Lynn's is low ball one and don't forget this American League race white socks a win and five to nothing playing the bottom of the sixth

1257
02:21:42,520 --> 02:22:01,520
against Kansas City pitch a ground ball in the hole a base hit the left field for boy is around second going to third the throw comes into second base and Lynn's holds it first the Yankees have run is at first and third and two out and Bobby Richardson the batter

1258
02:22:01,520 --> 02:22:26,520
Lynn's now three for five at the 11th hit for the Yankees and here comes birdie Tebbitz out birdie Tebbitz is talking first to late on fire Johnny Rice Bobby Richardson who is two for four a bunch single a single a left center bounce the short bounce the third

1259
02:22:26,520 --> 02:22:43,520
and Tebbitz is coming out to the mound he's calling his infield in and of course they want to be on the alert here for a possible double steal a lot of managers want to double steal is in order in this situation like the catcher to fire the ball back to the pitcher

1260
02:22:43,520 --> 02:22:57,520
and in the event that the runner on third comes home they can hang him up and if he doesn't the pitcher can still turn around and possibly get the man going to second to an unusual play but it has worked in the past Tebbitz is talking to

1261
02:22:57,520 --> 02:23:15,520
Romano staying and Larry Brown the second baseman Bobby Richardson the batter Bobby was up in the sixth inning with Lynn's at second and two out and bounced out to third the score is tied 3 3 where in the bottom of the eighth inning two out and two on here's the official paid attendance

1262
02:23:15,520 --> 02:23:44,520
14,879 the total including servicemen fifteen thousand five hundred and forty four all right the huddle is over Tebbitz is going back to the dugout it looks like staying is staying in there unless Tebbitz does the same thing Yogi did walked out to downing walked back to the dugout and then came back out again took downing out

1263
02:23:44,520 --> 02:24:13,520
all right that's the situation Lynn's at first boy or a third Richardson the batter two out the score tied 3 3 in the bottom of the eighth here's the stretch pitch to Bobby low and outside ball one couldn't ask for a better man up at the plate in a situation like this than Richardson Bobby who has been hitting that ball hard consistently

1264
02:24:13,520 --> 02:24:42,520
The stretch the pitch fouled into the stands out of play Bobby Richardson has struck out only thirty five times all year and he's been at bat six hundred and seventy five times including the four times today a 1 1 count on Bobby runners lead off first and second

1265
02:24:42,520 --> 02:25:07,520
The runners lead off first and third the stretch by staying his pitch swing and a missed strike to Bobby went down on one knee after that swing one ball two strikes two out and two on tension here at Yankee Stadium and I got a headache from all the tension birds are flying around above us

1266
02:25:07,520 --> 02:25:21,520
here's the stretch look at the runner at first the pitch line drive

1267
02:25:21,520 --> 02:25:41,520
a base hit for Richardson he had a line drive that Dick has a lead for got his glove on but it trickled out of his glove he could not make a play on Linda's second or Richardson at first and Bobby come through with a clutch single

1268
02:25:41,520 --> 02:26:04,520
Yankee's lead four to three and the bottom of the eighth and the batter is Roger Maris Roger is over three he walks struck out hit to the box and pop the short actually house a leap too high for that ball and hit in the heel of his glove and just trickled out

1269
02:26:04,520 --> 02:26:26,520
here's the stretch lens at second Richardson at first the pitch to Maris is low ball one Bobby Richardson drives in his fiftieth run of the year and it could be the most important run he's driven in all year

1270
02:26:26,520 --> 02:26:40,520
The stretch by staying pitch to Maris ground ball just foul outside of third Maris hit that one right off the end of the bat and it's squid foul

1271
02:26:40,520 --> 02:27:00,520
one and one on Maris

1272
02:27:00,520 --> 02:27:29,520
lens leaves off second Richardson off first here's the stretch by staying his pitch file back to the screen the counts even not quite it's one ball and two strikes

1273
02:27:29,520 --> 02:27:41,520
staying gets a new ball Maris digging into the plate on deck as Mickey Maddle

1274
02:27:41,520 --> 02:28:04,520
all right staying is ready his pitch low two balls two strikes Pedro Ramos had been loosening up for the Yankees but now Whitey Ford is up alone in the Yankee bullpen

1275
02:28:04,520 --> 02:28:33,520
Whitey Ford pitch last night complete game one at five to two we'll wait and see what Yogi's gonna do right now the Yankees lead four to three two balls two strikes two out two on the pitch to Maris high and it's a full count three and two and the runners will be off with a pitch

1276
02:28:33,520 --> 02:29:02,520
a full count on Roger Maris staying ready for the payoff pitch the runners go he delivers it's high ball four and the bases are loaded

1277
02:29:02,520 --> 02:29:19,520
and here comes birdie Tebbit and that's gonna be all for Lee staying it's George Strickland walking out there and that's ready to have it but nevertheless that's all for Lee staying

1278
02:29:19,520 --> 02:29:48,520
pitched a very unusual ball game but a fine ball game he worked seven and two third innings he allowed 12 base hits walk for struck out six men seven men I think that is seven many struck out and has been charged with four runs but he's got the bases loaded here as Don McAvoy

1279
02:29:48,520 --> 02:30:05,520
is coming on and while McMahan's taking that long walk in from the bullpen let's pause for station identification here a Broadway doubleheader on Lee Jordan's music of Broadway tomorrow morning at 915 on WCBS and WCBS FM New York

1280
02:30:18,520 --> 02:30:47,520
so Don McMahon the right hander is coming on a pitch to Mickey Maddle Mickey has doubled to drive in two runs hit to the box struck out and walk he's batting three oh three Mickey was up in the first inning and double a left with the bases loaded

1281
02:30:48,520 --> 02:31:12,520
this is the 70th appearance of the year for Don McMahon he's won six and lost four right side of the relief pitches have really been getting their work this year John Wyatt of Kansas City has been in over 80 games and Dick Raditz has been in close to 80 games

1282
02:31:12,520 --> 02:31:41,520
they broke Jim Constanze long standing record of appearances 74 that can stand he had while he was with the Phillies well that's the way this game has turned out to be specialist game and relief pitches are really specialties

1283
02:31:42,520 --> 02:32:05,520
all right the bases are loaded lenses at third Richardson at second Maris at first and Mantle will be the batter the Yankees lead in the ballgame four to three Johnny Rice dusting off home plate as Mantle steps into the batter's box

1284
02:32:05,520 --> 02:32:24,520
here's the wind up by McMahon pitch to Mantle swing and a miss strike one

1285
02:32:24,520 --> 02:32:46,520
and a man gets a sign takes delivers its low mantle checks his swing it's one on one

1286
02:32:46,520 --> 02:33:09,520
McMahon asking for time now wants to tie a shoelace

1287
02:33:09,520 --> 02:33:17,520
he's ready

1288
02:33:17,520 --> 02:33:21,520
one one count to Mickey Mantle

1289
02:33:21,520 --> 02:33:29,520
The wind up the pitcher foul back strike to one ball two strikes

1290
02:33:29,520 --> 02:33:48,520
let's see who the Indians have coming up next inning Johnny Romano Bob chance and Vic Davileo right hand batter and to left hand batter and then after Davileo Frank Kona another left hand batter that could be the reason why yogi's getting forward loosened up in the bullpen

1291
02:33:48,520 --> 02:34:06,520
all right here's the one ball two strike pitch high and away in the concert even at two and two that man is falling way to his left off the mound after he delivers each pitch

1292
02:34:06,520 --> 02:34:14,520
bases are loaded with two out Yankees lead four to three in the bottom of the eight

1293
02:34:14,520 --> 02:34:24,520
pitch high foul outside of third Elvis going back near the stands can't reach it it goes back into the crowd out of play

1294
02:34:24,520 --> 02:34:38,520
make it that one right off his fist

1295
02:34:38,520 --> 02:34:51,520
McMahon rubbing up the new ball

1296
02:34:51,520 --> 02:35:03,520
now McMahon gets the sign from Romano all three runners leading away pitch to Mickey almost hit him and did it hit him let's see I don't know how it missed him if it didn't hit him

1297
02:35:03,520 --> 02:35:15,520
no it didn't hit him it's three and two boy that ball was right at Mickey's right shoulder and he just got out of the way in time Romano dropped the ball

1298
02:35:15,520 --> 02:35:30,520
runners did not advance it's a bull count but now they'll be running with the pitch

1299
02:35:30,520 --> 02:35:41,520
McMahon moving his defense around Nick gets up dust himself off back in the batter's box

1300
02:35:41,520 --> 02:35:51,520
all right here's the payoff pitch to mantle

1301
02:35:51,520 --> 02:36:06,520
The ball is thrown out of the upper deck a base on balls a run batted in for Mickey his third of the day forcing in Phil Lynn's that run is charged to staying

1302
02:36:06,520 --> 02:36:24,520
The bases remain loaded and Elston Howard the batter Ellie has walked single struck out and bounce the third batting 312 so let's see metal has three RBI that gives him a total of one hundred and eleven on the year

1303
02:36:24,520 --> 02:36:43,520
Mr Robinson leads the American League and runs batted in he has a hundred and seventeen right now that ties metal for the second spot with Dick Stewart and Harmon Killeber all right here's Elston Howard ready

1304
02:36:43,520 --> 02:36:54,520
McMahon delivers a curve that's eyeball one

1305
02:36:54,520 --> 02:37:14,520
a big insurance run just forced across the plate how it swings and misses a curve strike one one on one on deck Joe Pepper Tom

1306
02:37:14,520 --> 02:37:33,520
one one pitch inside and how it had to jump back out of the way in a hurry two balls and a strike

1307
02:37:33,520 --> 02:37:50,520
here's the pitch it's over strike two call two and two man goes back to the rising back fires it down on the ground

1308
02:37:50,520 --> 02:38:07,520
all three men leading away the pitch is a curve bow back out of play in the upper deck how it holds that two and two

1309
02:38:07,520 --> 02:38:18,520
Mets beat the Cardinals 15 to five this afternoon

1310
02:38:18,520 --> 02:38:22,520
again we have the two to pitch foul off the end of the bat

1311
02:38:22,520 --> 02:38:36,520
out holds it to and to

1312
02:38:36,520 --> 02:38:51,520
still to and to on how Richardson at third Maris at second mantle at first Yankees five the Indians three in the bottom of the eighth

1313
02:38:51,520 --> 02:39:11,520
here's the wind up the pitch low and away and again we have a full count three and two with the bases loaded

1314
02:39:11,520 --> 02:39:26,520
McMahon asking for time checking the sign with Romano the runners all start to go here's the pitch line

1315
02:39:26,520 --> 02:39:41,520
and it's a one to four panel pulls up at third and the Yankees lead seven to three as Elston Howard hits a three to pitch in a line of center field

1316
02:39:41,520 --> 02:39:57,520
and George Strickland is coming out of the dugout and it looks like that's going to be all for Don McMahon with Joe Pepitone coming up Pepitone the ninth Yankee to bat here in the eighth inning

1317
02:39:57,520 --> 02:40:01,520
The Yankees lead seven to three

1318
02:40:01,520 --> 02:40:25,520
mantle is driven in three Howard to boil one and Richardson one Howard now has eighty three runs batted in on the air and on the day he is two for four so he's batting three fifteen

1319
02:40:25,520 --> 02:40:46,520
Bobby Richardson came up with a big base hit for the Yankees with two out a line single off the glove of Dick Hauser the drive in the run that put the Yankees ahead four to three and Dick Donovan is coming on

1320
02:40:46,520 --> 02:40:52,520
Donovan was scheduled to be one of the starting pitches in this series

1321
02:40:52,520 --> 02:41:04,520
and Bertie Tebbott might have to change his pitching plans now Donovan is making his twenty ninth appearance of the year he is one seven and lost nine

1322
02:41:04,520 --> 02:41:10,520
we noticed looking at his car that he has been used in relief

1323
02:41:10,520 --> 02:41:32,520
sixth relief appearance of the year tall right hander six three two hundred and five pounds from Quincy Massachusetts

1324
02:41:32,520 --> 02:41:42,520
Don McMahon

1325
02:41:42,520 --> 02:41:50,520
McMahon did not retire any Yankee player while he was in the ballgame

1326
02:41:50,520 --> 02:41:57,520
and Donovan coming on now will be facing Pepitone

1327
02:41:57,520 --> 02:42:09,520
Joe Ramos is up in the Yankee bullpen now the Yankees leading seven to three and the bottom of the eighth with two out mantle at third and Howard at first

1328
02:42:09,520 --> 02:42:34,520
Pepitone is one for four he's popped a second bounce the second twice and single batting 250 still looking for that one hundredth RBI of the year and he has had his chances especially in this Indian series

1329
02:42:34,520 --> 02:42:41,520
Joe Ramos who led off this inning by bouncing out the second is on deck

1330
02:42:41,520 --> 02:42:48,520
having a little ticket trouble here getting the other scores in

1331
02:42:48,520 --> 02:43:09,520
The Yankee bullpen leading Kansas City five to nothing at the end of five and a half but that's been up there for a long long time as at Boston at Washington Red Sox lead five nothing at the end of five and Detroit at Baltimore six six at the end of six but some of those games might be over by this time we're going to check to see if we can get any further scores

1332
02:43:09,520 --> 02:43:25,520
The Yankees only score in the National League the Mets beat the Cardinals 15 to five all right Dick Donovan ready to go now pitching to Joe Pepitone

1333
02:43:25,520 --> 02:43:53,520
Joe reads off there at Howard off first stretch by Donovan pitch to Pepitone is over a strike one call

1334
02:43:53,520 --> 02:44:21,520
Donovan shakes off a couple of signs how he sets way outside almost a wild pitch one on one Donovan goes to the rising bag

1335
02:44:21,520 --> 02:44:41,520
right hander stretches delivers a line drive to right field and as his 100th RBI a line single as Mantle scores the Yankees lead eight to three and Joe Pepitone finally gets that basic turns around and shakes Jimmy Gleason's hand coaching at first base

1336
02:44:41,520 --> 02:45:07,520
Joe Pepitone drives in Mickey Mantle with a line single a deep right field Yankees lead eight to three and his Tommy Trash up for the second time in the inning Tommy is 0 for 4 in this ballgame batting to forty six Howard now at third and Pepitone at first and that ought to relax Joe now

1337
02:45:07,520 --> 02:45:29,520
pitch the trash ground ball at third Alvis up with it goes to first base in time to get trash who made two outs in one inning but the Yankees come up with five runs on five hits no Indian errors and two men left and at the end of eight it's the Yankees eight the Indians three

1338
02:45:29,520 --> 02:45:48,520
aha good evening with you your regular table is waiting may I take the ladies coat

1339
02:45:48,520 --> 02:46:10,520

1341
02:46:35,520 --> 02:47:02,520
Pedro Ramos is coming on to do the pitching here in the top of the ninth with the Yankees leading eight to three Pedro is making his 13th appearance of the year as a Yankee overall his forty ninth appearance of the year and he is pitching against his former teammates the Yankees got him from the Cleveland Indians Pedro has one eight lost 10 and since he joined the Yankees he has won one and lost none

1342
02:47:02,520 --> 02:47:13,520
Ramos with New York has an earned run average of one point three one that's a total of 20 and two third innings allowing just three runs.

1343
02:47:13,520 --> 02:47:21,520
All right Johnny Romano will lead off Romano is over three struck out twice and bounce to the shortstop.

1344
02:47:21,520 --> 02:47:29,520
The Yankees looking to clinch their fifth straight pennant and their 29th overall.

1345
02:47:29,520 --> 02:47:32,520
First pitch to Romano ground foul outside a third.

1346
02:47:32,520 --> 02:47:47,520
Nice play by Sally Hamas in the coaching box strike one proud yells as a paper airplane blows right out in front of home plate.

1347
02:47:47,520 --> 02:47:55,520
Howard flips it away left handed saving that arm.

1348
02:47:55,520 --> 02:48:18,520
Yankees won the pennant five straight years once before 1949 through 1953 the pitch check swing foul back in the upper deck out of play.

1349
02:48:18,520 --> 02:48:25,520
Pete Mickelson is the pitcher of record for the Yankees and Lee Stang for Cleveland.

1350
02:48:25,520 --> 02:48:35,520
Here's a two strike pitch foul just off the end of the bat went for an outside curveball and just did Nick it.

1351
02:48:35,520 --> 02:48:39,520
Back in 1922 the Yankees won the pennant on the next to last day of the season.

1352
02:48:39,520 --> 02:48:46,520
St. Louis Browns finished second and in 1949 they won it on the last day of the season.

1353
02:48:46,520 --> 02:48:51,520
Red Sox finished second and I'll never forget that series because I was in it.

1354
02:48:51,520 --> 02:48:55,520
The pitch ground ball a short lens is up with it.

1355
02:48:55,520 --> 02:49:01,520
Fires the first one away.

1356
02:49:01,520 --> 02:49:09,520
That brings up Bob chance chance pinch hit in the sixth inning and struck out.

1357
02:49:09,520 --> 02:49:19,520
He's batting to 78 on deck.

1358
02:49:19,520 --> 02:49:28,520
Vic Davileo wind up by Ramos his pitch ground ball hit the short lens comes in.

1359
02:49:28,520 --> 02:49:35,520
He's got it over the first two away.

1360
02:49:35,520 --> 02:49:41,520
And you'll hear the crowd roar on this next out.

1361
02:49:41,520 --> 02:49:50,520
Two out nobody on top of the night the Yankees lead eight to three.

1362
02:49:50,520 --> 02:50:06,520
Vic Davileo the batter is one for three hit to the box fly to center and beat out a ground ball to first base.

1363
02:50:06,520 --> 02:50:10,520
I guess the Yankees figure that champagne is cold enough.

1364
02:50:10,520 --> 02:50:29,520
And in the refrigerator for a few days. All right here's the pitch to Davileo outside ball one.

1365
02:50:29,520 --> 02:50:52,520
Ramos into the wind up his pitch curve outside ball to do nothing.

1366
02:50:52,520 --> 02:51:01,520
Here's the two nothing delivery swing and a pop foul could be in play Howard back near the stands and Boyer and who's got it.

1367
02:51:01,520 --> 02:51:22,520
The Yankees win eight to three.

1368
02:51:22,520 --> 02:51:33,520
Are we on. OK number 29 we're down here and they'll be coming in in just a minute. The Yankees have just won their 29th Bennett and I didn't know I was on the air.

1369
02:51:33,520 --> 02:51:41,520
Here they come Pete Mickelson did a great job going through their actor Lopez Phil Lynn spectacular down the stretch.

1370
02:51:41,520 --> 02:51:58,520
Pedro Ramos and Yogi Mano Yogi Yogi Yogi congratulating his player there's a happiest man here in the clubhouse Yogi Berra Joe Pepitone.

1371
02:51:58,520 --> 02:52:05,520
God is 100. We'll get you a little bit. We're waiting for the manager to get him over here to talk to him.

1372
02:52:05,520 --> 02:52:11,520
Yo come on over here buddy. Yogi is this one sweeter than when you were a player. Yes it is.

1373
02:52:11,520 --> 02:52:17,520
Jerry sure is. Did that. Mickelson did a good job when he went in there and well we fought all the way.

1374
02:52:17,520 --> 02:52:28,520
Jerry I think this is the hardest one I think I ever been on. Well actually even though that one and forty nine went longer this one when your first year as a manager.

1375
02:52:28,520 --> 02:52:37,520
Were there any time at any time did you have any qualms about this club winning. Well Jerry was just one time the writers asked me the game we lost in Los Angeles.

1376
02:52:37,520 --> 02:52:48,520
Then I I really got it back up when we wanted to beat Minnesota twice over there in Minnesota when Washington beat Chicago though I said I think we could do it.

1377
02:52:48,520 --> 02:52:54,520
Yogi let me ask this how did you manage to say don't stay so calm all year. I'm excited you're not excited.

1378
02:52:54,520 --> 02:53:03,520
Well a lot of people say they don't show it Jerry maybe I did or not but I've been a ball player Jerry I know how it feels and every one of these boys deserve.

1379
02:53:03,520 --> 02:53:14,520
We worked hard for it Jerry and we deserve it. Well let me ask you this the big guys the Mantle the Howard the Maris's Pepitone coming in on the stretch drive Bobby Richardson.

1380
02:53:14,520 --> 02:53:24,520
When that ball went out Dick Hauser the pivotal play and he jumped a little too soon. What happened on that then. Oh boy everything Jerry.

1381
02:53:24,520 --> 02:53:31,520
That was a nice one. The Crusader was telling me the ball got in the sun there he jumped up from the shadow into the sun and they got his eyes.

1382
02:53:31,520 --> 02:53:36,520
Yogi go enjoy yourself a well deserved victory. I know you're thrilled to that but we're thrilled for you.

1383
02:53:36,520 --> 02:53:45,520
The first year out Yogi comes up with his big one the first planet Joe Pepitone. You're beautiful tell us about that 100th RBI.

1384
02:53:45,520 --> 02:53:52,520
Jerry took a long time coming boy but I'm happy I got it. There's my man right back there Phil Linds. Mickey he got it in for me.

1385
02:53:52,520 --> 02:54:00,520
You know Jerry all year long having trouble on first base and then coming through today you know I mean in the winning it takes old pressure.

1386
02:54:00,520 --> 02:54:07,520
I had a ball here and it disappeared after that last out. How did you feel this morning going into the game Joe? Jerry I was a little shaken up believe me.

1387
02:54:07,520 --> 02:54:15,520
I was real tight and I was worrying about the two days previous where I made a couple of errors on first base it was on my mind and it hurts me a lot.

1388
02:54:15,520 --> 02:54:26,520
But today in that in that evening when we got those five runs everything was going I said I just want to get one more RBI for myself Jerry that's 100.

1389
02:54:26,520 --> 02:54:31,520
All right a long time. Pepe let me ask you this when in the first inning the bags loaded.

1390
02:54:31,520 --> 02:54:37,520
Little nervous Jerry everything was tight. Do you get that tight that the arms get tough and the wrist gets stiff.

1391
02:54:37,520 --> 02:54:41,520
Oh Jerry I was like still this is the whole thing you have to be loose on first base.

1392
02:54:41,520 --> 02:54:50,520
The only time I was loose on first base when it was two out in the last inning when I saw that pop up go to Ellie I says Ellie don't drop it please I don't want to get the next ball hit to me.

1393
02:54:50,520 --> 02:54:56,520
I really feel good Jerry. This right now is the happiest time of my life right now believe me I'm really happy.

1394
02:54:56,520 --> 02:55:00,520
Joe Pepitone congratulations good luck in the series my friend. Thank you very much.

1395
02:55:00,520 --> 02:55:05,520
Jim Bowden 17 come on over here where's Ellie come on over here Ellie.

1396
02:55:05,520 --> 02:55:11,520
Now wait a minute don't pour it on me this year Ellie how about it a sweet one you've been around for a lot of them.

1397
02:55:11,520 --> 02:55:19,520
It was a good one Jerry and I really appreciate it because you know Yogi was the new manager and a lot of people say this is the year that we're supposed to lose the pennants.

1398
02:55:19,520 --> 02:55:22,520
So I think that that's one of the reasons why I took what we wanted.

1399
02:55:22,520 --> 02:55:31,520
Elson let me ask you this how about that Sun that looked devastating out there in the outfield it looked to me like a lot of balls the outfielders were having trouble they may have caught up to.

1400
02:55:31,520 --> 02:55:32,520
Is it that wicked?

1401
02:55:32,520 --> 02:55:42,520
Well you can recall during the World Series one year that Norm Steven played outfield and in this time of the year the Sun is very rough because it's for the shadows falls and the Sun is right through the stands.

1402
02:55:42,520 --> 02:55:49,520
So otherwise the ball hit it and if you don't get your glasses down and the ball is directed in the Sun you get one black dot so the ball is very hard to pick up.

1403
02:55:49,520 --> 02:55:52,520
Same as hitting up to the point it's very hard hitting.

1404
02:55:52,520 --> 02:55:57,520
Alright Elson Howard one last one how about this ball club the last seven weeks tremendous sir have you ever seen anything like.

1405
02:55:57,520 --> 02:56:02,520
Well I've never seen anything like it Jerry because everyone had counted the ball clubs.

1406
02:56:02,520 --> 02:56:17,520
Well see we were dead we weren't going to win the pennant and we came back with the help of Bowden Downing and Mickey began to hit and all the other fellows Lentz and Kubeck and Richardson and we got real fine relief pitching and Pedro Ramis and we did a real good job.

1407
02:56:17,520 --> 02:56:22,520
Ellie good luck to you enjoy the World Series enjoy that champagne relax and have some fun.

1408
02:56:22,520 --> 02:56:31,520
Well I got a breakthrough here and we're going to break away for a message right after this.

1409
02:56:31,520 --> 02:56:34,520
Yeah.

1410
02:56:34,520 --> 02:56:38,520
Camel time.

1411
02:56:38,520 --> 02:56:45,520
It's camel time camel time it's pleasure time for you.

1412
02:56:45,520 --> 02:56:51,520
Camel time is any time when nothing less will do.

1413
02:56:51,520 --> 02:56:54,520
Things all seem to brighten up.

1414
02:56:54,520 --> 02:57:03,520
Every time you like one up right now make it camel time have a camel cigarette.

1415
02:57:03,520 --> 02:57:15,520
The best tobacco makes the best smoke camel gives you easy going taste honest enjoyment choice quality tobacco's the exclusive camel blend of costly tobacco's has never been equal.

1416
02:57:15,520 --> 02:57:19,520
The best tobacco makes the best smoke.

1417
02:57:19,520 --> 02:57:24,520
Right now make it camel time.

1418
02:57:24,520 --> 02:57:33,520
Have a camel cigarette.

1419
02:57:33,520 --> 02:57:37,520
You're managing one pennant pretty good percentage.

1420
02:57:37,520 --> 02:57:39,520
Well I don't know about percentage.

1421
02:57:39,520 --> 02:57:42,520
I think this was the toughest one I ever been in.

1422
02:57:42,520 --> 02:57:43,520
What happened to you?

1423
02:57:43,520 --> 02:57:47,520
Well they gave me I needed a shampoo and they gave me a champagne shampoo.

1424
02:57:47,520 --> 02:57:49,520
Just the first thing you ever had?

1425
02:57:49,520 --> 02:57:50,520
Yeah.

1426
02:57:50,520 --> 02:57:54,520
Well as you look back over your first year managing just how tough was this now that it's over with?

1427
02:57:54,520 --> 02:58:00,520
Well Ralph warned me he told me this is going to be like being a Blair Redden it was terrific.

1428
02:58:00,520 --> 02:58:11,520
I really enjoyed it I think you know like I said before I wanted a one year contract I wanted to see if I could manage I don't know maybe I still don't know but I feel pretty good Redden.

1429
02:58:11,520 --> 02:58:12,520
I would think so.

1430
02:58:12,520 --> 02:58:13,520
Yogan again congratulations.

1431
02:58:13,520 --> 02:58:14,520
Thank you very much.

1432
02:58:14,520 --> 02:58:17,520
I'm not even asking who you're going to play tomorrow.

1433
02:58:17,520 --> 02:58:20,520
So now they're going to take Yogan's picture filled in.

1434
02:58:20,520 --> 02:58:21,520
Just on with us.

1435
02:58:21,520 --> 02:58:24,520
They've borne a little more champagne on the manager.

1436
02:58:24,520 --> 02:58:32,520
Well this is sort of the tradition you know you give the manager the champagne shampoo just like throwing the winning cocks and overboard.

1437
02:58:32,520 --> 02:58:36,520
Now let's see here's Joe Pepito.

1438
02:58:36,520 --> 02:58:38,520
Joe wait a second.

1439
02:58:38,520 --> 02:58:39,520
We've got the radio mic here.

1440
02:58:39,520 --> 02:58:40,520
Congratulations Joe.

1441
02:58:40,520 --> 02:58:41,520
Thank you.

1442
02:58:41,520 --> 02:58:42,520
That's a big game.

1443
02:58:42,520 --> 02:58:47,520
Just seeing just you know it was big enough for me because I got my 100th RBI boy I was waiting one more game.

1444
02:58:47,520 --> 02:58:48,520
I didn't think I was going to make it.

1445
02:58:48,520 --> 02:58:55,520
Yeah but there was one more important point you know when Frank Conner came up to pinch head if that ball had been about four inches higher we might not be here.

1446
02:58:55,520 --> 02:59:09,520
Brad I didn't even think I was going to catch it because I was so tight believe me you know the two previous days fielding poorly very poorly and this is all season long and I was very tight and that eighth inning and ninth inning when we got those runs I said oh boy.

1447
02:59:09,520 --> 02:59:12,520
I just don't let him hit any balls to me there's any let him hit the other good ball players.

1448
02:59:12,520 --> 02:59:14,520
Hey wait a minute Ralph.

1449
02:59:14,520 --> 02:59:18,520
Friends here's Ralph Howe first year as the general manager with one pennant.

1450
02:59:18,520 --> 02:59:19,520
That's a pretty good percentage isn't it Ralph.

1451
02:59:19,520 --> 02:59:22,520
Well it's a wonderful year Ed.

1452
02:59:22,520 --> 02:59:25,520
You got to give the team a lot of credit and Yogi a lot of credit.

1453
02:59:25,520 --> 02:59:32,520
They came from behind it was a long season but in true Yankee style they pulled one out again.

1454
02:59:32,520 --> 02:59:36,520
It was a little rough for a while but this has certainly been a great year.

1455
02:59:36,520 --> 02:59:40,520
Well Mr. Howe you didn't have anything to do with bringing up a fellow named Stonema did you.

1456
02:59:40,520 --> 02:59:51,520
Well I'd like to say that the organization deserves all the credit for that our farm system Johnny Johnson's ahead of it and our scouts and this is what makes the Yankees the winner.

1457
02:59:51,520 --> 02:59:53,520
It's the organization.

1458
02:59:53,520 --> 02:59:56,520
And of course you weren't involved at all in the Remus deal.

1459
02:59:56,520 --> 03:00:03,520
Well we've always liked Pedro and we're glad he was on our side this last month.

1460
03:00:03,520 --> 03:00:07,520
Ralph I know you want to see a lot of people and one more thing aside from congratulations.

1461
03:00:07,520 --> 03:00:12,520
Is it tougher to be a general manager through a pennant battle or is it tougher to be down in the dugout as a field manager.

1462
03:00:12,520 --> 03:00:26,520
I think this is my hardest year Ed and I'd just like to thank all the Yankee fans for supporting us and I think that along with it gives us the zest to go on and be champions.

1463
03:00:26,520 --> 03:00:34,520
And let's hope that this year we'll prove that there's nobody in that National League can beat us and we'll bring that world championship back to New York.

1464
03:00:34,520 --> 03:00:35,520
That's where it belongs.

1465
03:00:35,520 --> 03:00:40,520
Well I know you don't know who you're going to play but I know this that you've had Cincinnati and St. Louis pretty well scouted.

1466
03:00:40,520 --> 03:00:41,520
Who have you had on them.

1467
03:00:41,520 --> 03:00:49,520
Well we've had Mayo Smith Johnny Noon and Bill Skiff and we've got all three clubs well scouted along with San Francisco.

1468
03:00:49,520 --> 03:00:51,520
So we're leaving no stones unturned.

1469
03:00:51,520 --> 03:00:54,520
You've even got a book on Philadelphia that you're not going to use.

1470
03:00:54,520 --> 03:00:56,520
It looks that way.

1471
03:00:56,520 --> 03:00:58,520
Ralph again congratulations.

1472
03:00:58,520 --> 03:00:59,520
Thank you Ed.

1473
03:00:59,520 --> 03:01:00,520
Ralph out friends.

1474
03:01:00,520 --> 03:01:01,520
Been a great year Ralph.

1475
03:01:01,520 --> 03:01:02,520
A real good tough one.

1476
03:01:02,520 --> 03:01:04,520
Now let's see who else is around.

1477
03:01:04,520 --> 03:01:09,520
I tell you we've got the fellows back in the shower room and they're back in the clubhouse.

1478
03:01:09,520 --> 03:01:20,520
I believe that actually this was one of the toughest punters that the Yankees have won and maybe it's left its mark because from what I've seen and my being around here in some years.

1479
03:01:20,520 --> 03:01:27,520
That this is about the quietest Yankee clubhouse after a punnett win that I have encountered.

1480
03:01:27,520 --> 03:01:31,520
Now let's see here is Jim Farley who just come in to say congratulations.

1481
03:01:31,520 --> 03:01:39,520
Jim I think that you are one of the real genuine all line Yankee fans and it's very wonderful to see you here looking so well.

1482
03:01:39,520 --> 03:01:40,520
Well thank you very much.

1483
03:01:40,520 --> 03:01:42,520
I've been rooting for the Yankees since nineteen four.

1484
03:01:42,520 --> 03:01:45,520
I used to go up and see them play or down through the years.

1485
03:01:45,520 --> 03:01:46,520
I'm a devotee of the Yankees.

1486
03:01:46,520 --> 03:01:47,520
I like baseball.

1487
03:01:47,520 --> 03:01:50,520
I come up here and relax and I feel badly when they lose.

1488
03:01:50,520 --> 03:01:53,520
I suffer just as much as they do and I'm happy when they win.

1489
03:01:53,520 --> 03:01:59,520
Jim I know that the Yankees have I know on a season with the Red Sox that one on the last day.

1490
03:01:59,520 --> 03:02:01,520
But I guess this is one of the real tough pennants in it.

1491
03:02:01,520 --> 03:02:02,520
I would think so.

1492
03:02:02,520 --> 03:02:05,520
I don't think they ever went down to the second last day before.

1493
03:02:05,520 --> 03:02:11,520
I was here in nineteen four right over the Yankees up at the old stadium and the Hilltoppers when they lost the game.

1494
03:02:11,520 --> 03:02:16,520
The pennants of the Boston Red Sox and then they won the second game.

1495
03:02:16,520 --> 03:02:19,520
One inning one to nothing eleven innings.

1496
03:02:19,520 --> 03:02:21,520
Chesbo made that very famous wild pitcher.

1497
03:02:21,520 --> 03:02:23,520
Kleino failed to catch the spitball.

1498
03:02:23,520 --> 03:02:24,520
I don't know who was to blame.

1499
03:02:24,520 --> 03:02:27,520
But they lost the pennant by half a game that year.

1500
03:02:27,520 --> 03:02:29,520
That was in nineteen four or five.

1501
03:02:29,520 --> 03:02:30,520
Well we're off together.

1502
03:02:30,520 --> 03:02:32,520
We got to see you Mr. Folley.

1503
03:02:32,520 --> 03:02:34,520
Glad to see you were in and all is well.

1504
03:02:34,520 --> 03:02:35,520
Well I say it right back at you.

1505
03:02:35,520 --> 03:02:36,520
Good luck and God bless you.

1506
03:02:36,520 --> 03:02:37,520
Thank you.

1507
03:02:37,520 --> 03:02:39,520
Now here's Pedro Ramas.

1508
03:02:39,520 --> 03:02:42,520
Pete let me borrow you for a second.

1509
03:02:42,520 --> 03:02:45,520
Here you have the poetic justice should we say.

1510
03:02:45,520 --> 03:02:51,520
You come from the Indians and then you lock up the ballgame against your old ball club as the Yankees nail down the pennant.

1511
03:02:51,520 --> 03:02:53,520
And congratulations on the work you've done over here.

1512
03:02:53,520 --> 03:02:54,520
Thank you very much.

1513
03:02:54,520 --> 03:02:56,520
I don't care what they need anybody else.

1514
03:02:56,520 --> 03:02:59,520
I just want to do a good job and I hope and I wish.

1515
03:02:59,520 --> 03:03:04,520
And I'm so happy that the Yankees win the pennant that I don't know what what else can I say.

1516
03:03:04,520 --> 03:03:06,520
You really put your shoulder to the wheel.

1517
03:03:06,520 --> 03:03:11,520
Well I try my best because I know when you were the winner you got to be first class.

1518
03:03:11,520 --> 03:03:12,520
Well you've been a first class man.

1519
03:03:12,520 --> 03:03:13,520
Pete congratulations.

1520
03:03:13,520 --> 03:03:14,520
Thank you very much.

1521
03:03:14,520 --> 03:03:19,520
OK. And I know the Yankees wish you said so that they could have you in the World Series.

1522
03:03:19,520 --> 03:03:25,520
Now I don't want to get in Jerry Coleman's television picture but there are a couple of fellows I do want to get to you around here.

1523
03:03:25,520 --> 03:03:28,520
I've got a long cord and I'm just going to walk right back out of it.

1524
03:03:28,520 --> 03:03:31,520
Jerry's talking to John Blanchard and he doesn't mind.

1525
03:03:31,520 --> 03:03:32,520
Let's get over here.

1526
03:03:32,520 --> 03:03:34,520
We've had Yogi and here's Steve Hamlin.

1527
03:03:34,520 --> 03:03:35,520
Steve.

1528
03:03:35,520 --> 03:03:36,520
Thank you very much.

1529
03:03:36,520 --> 03:03:40,520
Certainly feel a lot better now than I did about 20 minutes ago.

1530
03:03:40,520 --> 03:03:42,520
How much tougher was the pennant this year than last year.

1531
03:03:42,520 --> 03:03:46,520
It was quite a bit tougher last year we were on top all the way and it seemed like there wasn't as much pressure.

1532
03:03:46,520 --> 03:03:49,520
I felt like there was but I sure didn't after experiencing this year.

1533
03:03:49,520 --> 03:03:53,520
So when we go down to the next to the last day it's really tough.

1534
03:03:53,520 --> 03:03:55,520
Fine Steve. Let's get over to Bobby Richardson.

1535
03:03:55,520 --> 03:03:56,520
Bobby.

1536
03:03:56,520 --> 03:03:57,520
All right.

1537
03:03:57,520 --> 03:04:01,520
You had a line drive that had eyes didn't you. That ball that Howser couldn't hold.

1538
03:04:01,520 --> 03:04:05,520
Well actually Red when I got down to second base he explained that the sun was right over the top of his head.

1539
03:04:05,520 --> 03:04:10,520
He saw the ball all the way and just as he jumped up the sun of course hit him right in his eyes and he didn't see the ball.

1540
03:04:10,520 --> 03:04:13,520
The ball hit on the side of his glove and of course he didn't hold it.

1541
03:04:13,520 --> 03:04:15,520
Well I guess that'll make you a sun worshiper from now on.

1542
03:04:15,520 --> 03:04:18,520
Well sure will. I didn't hit the ball too good Red.

1543
03:04:18,520 --> 03:04:21,520
I hit it right on the fist but I was sure glad to see it drop in there.

1544
03:04:21,520 --> 03:04:23,520
Well the result was important.

1545
03:04:23,520 --> 03:04:30,520
Well it sure was. This has been a long struggle for us and I think since I've been with the club certainly it's been the hardest one to get and the one that I think we appreciate more than any.

1546
03:04:30,520 --> 03:04:34,520
Well Bobby I know this you've never had a September on this ball cup like this one have you.

1547
03:04:34,520 --> 03:04:36,520
That's true Red. This is what won the pennant for us.

1548
03:04:36,520 --> 03:04:44,520
Our tremendous record in September when we had to win those ball games and certainly Chicago and Baltimore set a good pace and we're just pleased that it came out the way it did.

1549
03:04:44,520 --> 03:04:46,520
Well you will set me in there again. Congratulations Bobby.

1550
03:04:46,520 --> 03:04:47,520
Thank you a lot Red.

1551
03:04:47,520 --> 03:04:52,520
Here's Pete Mickelson back here. Pete you came out of the bullpen the ball game was 3-3.

1552
03:04:52,520 --> 03:04:57,520
Cleveland had a man at third base and only one man was out and you really did the job.

1553
03:04:57,520 --> 03:04:58,520
Thanks Red.

1554
03:04:58,520 --> 03:05:01,520
How was the sinker today? Is that what you got him out with?

1555
03:05:01,520 --> 03:05:06,520
The first hitter I did then I got the last hitter Chance out on the change up.

1556
03:05:06,520 --> 03:05:09,520
Then you went two more innings and how did you feel about it?

1557
03:05:09,520 --> 03:05:22,520
Well I got behind like I walked the first hitter but I got out of it. He tried to steal second and delayed steal and they caught him in between and ran him out and after I got him out I had two outs and I felt pretty confident after that.

1558
03:05:22,520 --> 03:05:25,520
Pete you've done quite a job. You've been in 50 ball games this year.

1559
03:05:25,520 --> 03:05:30,520
Is that right Red? I didn't know exactly how many. I knew I was in the high 40's or so.

1560
03:05:30,520 --> 03:05:34,520
Well I think for a first year fellow that's quite a group.

1561
03:05:34,520 --> 03:05:35,520
That's a lot of games.

1562
03:05:35,520 --> 03:05:42,520
Well you rewarded the judgment of your manager. Yogi picked you in the spring. You're his boy and again congratulations.

1563
03:05:42,520 --> 03:05:43,520
Thanks a lot Red.

1564
03:05:43,520 --> 03:05:52,520
Now here's Bob Fischel the director of public relations and Mr. Fischel has come here for the clinching of course. He's got to be here.

1565
03:05:52,520 --> 03:05:55,520
But Bob we haven't seen you in several days. You haven't had anything to do have you?

1566
03:05:55,520 --> 03:06:02,520
No I haven't Red. Thank you. I really can't accept any congratulations. I didn't get a base set all year and I think that's the standard line that I give you every year.

1567
03:06:02,520 --> 03:06:10,520
But it's just as thrilling as the first one that I marked nine years ago. Probably that was the first big thrill I had here and there have been a lot since.

1568
03:06:10,520 --> 03:06:12,520
Well what's kept you out of the ballpark the last few days?

1569
03:06:12,520 --> 03:06:21,520
Well trying to decide how many programs to do and we've done two. One for Cincinnati and one for St. Louis and now the Giants are calling us.

1570
03:06:21,520 --> 03:06:29,520
They want us to prepare another book for them and they want our material for their book and I got Philly's material. If I have to do four of them I don't think we'll get done in time.

1571
03:06:29,520 --> 03:06:34,520
And of course you don't hear from many newspaper men and press and TV about accommodations. Oh boy.

1572
03:06:34,520 --> 03:06:40,520
And nobody in civilian life wants tickets.

1573
03:06:40,520 --> 03:06:45,520
No we haven't got a reserve or box seat left. We do have these open stand tickets though still. Fans can still get those tickets if they want to.

1574
03:06:45,520 --> 03:06:51,520
There are some of those open stand right center field bleachers and they're pretty good seats. Especially on a day like this.

1575
03:06:51,520 --> 03:06:56,520
Well Bob again congratulations and I know it's a great deal of work for you and the rest of the staff but it's worth it isn't it?

1576
03:06:56,520 --> 03:07:01,520
It sure is Red and thank you for everything you've done for us this year because your cooperation has meant an awful lot to us.

1577
03:07:01,520 --> 03:07:07,520
For goodness sake I can take a page out of your book. I haven't had a base hit all season. Thank you Bob.

1578
03:07:07,520 --> 03:07:12,520
There's Mickey Maddle back here. I want to get a quick word on him. Hi Tony. Tony Florio the bad boy. Just stay around here Tony.

1579
03:07:12,520 --> 03:07:16,520
Turn loose that cord. I asked Joe Ripley of all people to step in on it.

1580
03:07:16,520 --> 03:07:22,520
Mick just a quick word. I know you're talking to Jack Hand of the AP. This is about the roughest pennant for you you've been in isn't it?

1581
03:07:22,520 --> 03:07:29,520
I was just telling him that I think this is the biggest thrill I've had in the pennant so far because of the fact that it was so tough to win.

1582
03:07:29,520 --> 03:07:37,520
I hate to admit it but I did give up on it a little bit early. We lost four in a row to Chicago and I wasn't playing. I was feeling bad and Whitey was hurting.

1583
03:07:37,520 --> 03:07:46,520
Everybody was feeling bad and then all of a sudden our whole team just kind of knitted back together and it's a great big thrill to win it this year.

1584
03:07:46,520 --> 03:07:56,520
Well Mick may I say this. I don't want to try and get you to say it but when you started taping up those legs and forcing yourself to go you did a great deal about picking up this ball club my friend.

1585
03:07:56,520 --> 03:08:04,520
And I think you can feel prouder of this one than anyone you've been in. Well I do. I think you had to work harder. Thanks a lot. We did. We had to work real hard.

1586
03:08:04,520 --> 03:08:13,520
The American league is a lot better this year I think than it has been in the past. I know the pitching is a lot better than everything and I just feel real good that we won it.

1587
03:08:13,520 --> 03:08:21,520
Again congratulations. I don't want to try and hold you up. Okay now we promised hey Whitey. We've got Whitey Ford over here friends.

1588
03:08:21,520 --> 03:08:30,520
He can't go on television but radio doesn't have any seeing eye. We caught him on the way to the shower but we couldn't let you get by. That was quite a job you did last night.

1589
03:08:30,520 --> 03:08:41,520
Well thank you Red. I think the club has just been great the last six weeks. It's been somebody picking us up each day. If it isn't Mickey it's somebody on the pitching staff and felt like Phil Linskman had done a great job for Tony.

1590
03:08:41,520 --> 03:08:52,520
It's just been a real team effort if I can use a phrase. And speaking of somebody on the pitching staff making a pick up once in a while a fellow named Ford did that occasionally didn't he?

1591
03:08:52,520 --> 03:09:08,520
Well yes it's been a funny year for me Red. I just wish two out of the last three years I've been able to pitch every fourth day. This year in 1962 something happened and I just hope I can keep pitching every fourth day from now on.

1592
03:09:08,520 --> 03:09:18,520
Well I know York has in mind working you Wednesday if the National League won't get in a playoff and spoil the plot. But one question I want to ask you how's your heel and how do you feel generally?

1593
03:09:18,520 --> 03:09:32,520
Well it was fine. I was worried the first few innings last night because I was pitching with men on bases you know. But after the fall from the third inning on I just could take my wind up pretty near the rest of the game and there was nothing wrong with it.

1594
03:09:32,520 --> 03:09:36,520
And now I'll have until Wednesday for it to get a little better. I think I'll be alright.

1595
03:09:36,520 --> 03:09:38,520
Okay Whitehead. Good luck and enjoy your shower.

1596
03:09:38,520 --> 03:09:48,520
Thank you Red.
