2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:15,000
The Kansas City Royals faced the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium for game 3 of the ALCS on October 12, 1976.

3
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,000
The best of five series was tied at one game apiece.

4
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:24,000
This is the national broadcast of game 3 featuring announcers Ernie Harwell and Ned Martin.

5
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:30,000
Inside Hywens, ball runner John.

6
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,000
6-90, one day game today from the Phillies and 6-90.

7
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:38,000
And the Chief Benashley Championship Series, three victories for none.

8
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,000
Here's the pitch. He claims there's a bite from up center, it's in for a hit.

9
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,000
That comes over to field it. Brett racing for third before we go to second.

10
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Man on first, man on third. One man down, Royals lead 1-0.

11
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:55,000
Mayberry getting his second hit of the playoff. Moving Brett into third.

12
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:03,000
You notice Ernie how without any hesitation at all, Brett went right on into third base as they ran on Roy White's arm.

13
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,000
And they'll do it on Mickey Rivers the same way.

14
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:11,000
And anything hit out there, usually a runner with that play in front of him will kind of wait a minute to see if there's a chance.

15
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:16,000
But there was no sweat at all. He just went on in there and White 3 wins the second.

16
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:24,000
Here's Hal McRae now who finished second through his teammate Brett in the batting race, but he's 0-7 in the championship series so far.

17
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:29,000
He's had one walk. Right-hander against the right-hander.

18
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,000
Alice delivered to the lay. Cut him in the neck to slide a fool in.

19
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:43,000
Royals lead it, one to nothing in the opening inning. They got a man at first and a man at third.

20
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,000
Grant Jackson throwing in the Yankee both end, the left-hander.

21
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,000
As they fly ball him into medium depth right-hander. Now it's a little shorter.

22
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:56,000
Maddox comes in, makes the catch. His Brett heading for home. He's a throw to the plateThe monster, he slides and he is safe.

23
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:03,000
Maddox was not too good a throw. A good throw might have picked him off.

24
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:10,000
The Royals now lead it to the loving. Mayberry held it first.

25
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:18,000
It will be a petrified fly off the batting of Gray for the second out. Getting Brett home after the catch with each score from third.

26
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:23,000
Royals still in the jumping for a inning.

27
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:30,000
East Polkette batting 3-3-3The left-hander batting right fielder with 2 for 6 for the series.

28
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:37,000
And the three runs batted in. That's a cop down the Kansas City club in that department.

29
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,000
East of the left-hander batting. Tom Polkette.

30
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:47,000
He takes the ball. It gets by Muntzen. There goes Mayberry to second. We'll wait for the score decision on that one.

31
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:52,000
The pitch is a little bit low and toward the end side of the left-hand batter.

32
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,000
It is a cast ball.

33
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:05,000
Billy Martin has gone out to the mound now to talk for Daly and with his special Muntzen.

34
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:10,000
The Royals have jumped in for up. They've got a 2-0 lead over the Yankees.

35
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:17,000
Incidentally, the Yankees now have opened up the left field bleachers for the first time since they've reconstructed Yankee Stadium.

36
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:26,000
And that will expand the capacity to about 57,000The original capacity around 54,000 in this ballpark.

37
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,000
Up they've opened up those bleachers now in the left for the first time.

38
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:36,000
The conference is over at the plate. One and all the count on Polkette. Man on second base, Mayberry.

39
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,000
And the Royals have a 2-0 lead in the very first inning.

40
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:46,000
Third game of the championship series. It's tied right now, 1-2.

41
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:52,000
Cut in the mid. That was a fast ball about belt-high from Doc Ellis, Yankee right-hander.

42
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:58,000
Mayberry with a fair-sized lead on second.

43
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:04,000
Polkette leaning and waiting. Here it comes. He swings a bonnie ball to first base hit.

44
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Inside the bag, Carom's off the seat. In the score, easily comes Mayberry. Here's Maddox who's slow to second.

45
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,000
Not in time. He's five-pin head first. It'll be a double.

46
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:18,000
Maddox went over to play it on the Carom and he slipped a little bit.

47
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,000
I believe it would have been a two-bagger anywayThe official score gives him two.

48
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,000
And it is three-nothing in favor of the Royals.

49
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,000
And Tom Polkette goes on the two and he doesn't get out of it.

50
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:36,000
Didn't play that much against Boston this year, but he comes fully credited with a live bat.

51
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:41,000
And he's a hard-nosed player too. He's run into a few fences and he's a short career.

52
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,000
And paid the price, but they say he's quite a batter.

53
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,000
This point, White, the right-hand batting infielder.

54
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Royals lead at three-nothing against Doc Ellison, the Yankees.

55
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,000
There's Ellison. Slider is outside.

56
00:04:55,000 --> 00:05:01,000
White has one hit for six.

57
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,000
Now the set and the pitch gets a strike on the inside corner.

58
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:11,000
Rivers has played just about every hitter to hit to the opposite side.

59
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,000
He's over in the right center down, the right-hand batting White.

60
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,000
And it's ready to deliver. Here's a swing and a miss on the breaking ball.

61
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,000
One and two to count on White.

62
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:30,000
Three to nothing to the Royals in front.

63
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:35,000
As Tom, he takes the ball, catches the swing and fire and held off.

64
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:39,000
Two to the count on White.

65
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,000
Native of Kansas City.

66
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,000
Oh, Kett meeting down our second. Ellis delivers.

67
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,000
Here's a ball. White, fastball.

68
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,000
Over and away. Three and two.

69
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,000
Doc Ellison's had a struggle here in the opening inning.

70
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,000
He's given up three runs and three hits.

71
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,000
He's into the walk.

72
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,000
Now Kett, going to be three-two.

73
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,000
He's a top-up in the inning. It's over near first base.

74
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:10,000
He's established his hundred. He has it and the side retires.

75
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Three runs on the three hits for the Royals.

76
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,000
No Yankee errors. One man left.

77
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:23,000
And in the middle of the first inning, Kansas City three, New York coming to bat.

78
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,000
Time out.

79
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,000

PBS Radio Sports is bringing you the play-by-play action in the American League Championship.

91
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:29,000
There's more to comeThe World Series starts October 16th. That's next Saturday.

92
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:39,000
And you'll hear exclusive radio coverage play-by-play of the 1976 World Series right here on this CBS Radio Network station.

93
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:44,000
Andy Hasler, the hard-crowing left-hander, goes to work by teammates.

94
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:49,000
It's taken to a 3-0 lead. He'll be facing Mickey Rivers leading off for the Yankees.

95
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:57,000
The Yankees are tired tonight and their famous pinstripes.

96
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:01,000
They started wearing those pinstripes across their one-time owner, Jacob Rupert.

97
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:06,000
Thought that Babe Ruth looked a little too fat and pinstripes might make them seem thinner.

98
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,000
And they've worn them ever since.

99
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,000
Mickey Rivers leaning and waiting. He's a speedster.

100
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:18,000
Braddison close at third base. Hasler about ready to go into action.

101
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:23,000
Hasler with a 5-12 record this year. He didn't have any record against the Yankees, one and all.

102
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:30,000
Here's the pick outside, ball one.

103
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:36,000
Outfield to the left on the Mickey Rivers. 3-0 to the Royals in the lead in the opening inning.

104
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:41,000
Now to wind up by the left-hander, the pick on the way. He takes the ball outside.

105
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:51,000
So the Yankee fans are coming to life a little bit now in the opening inning.

106
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:56,000
Brad in very close. He's about two or three yards into the under grass.

107
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:00,000
Inside at third base. Now Hasler, the tall left-hander, picks and delivers.

108
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:09,000
It's a strike on the inside corner.

109
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,000
Hasler's carry about even with a bag and wide of it over first base.

110
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,000
Leadoff man Rivers waits on a 2-1, but over here it comes.

111
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,000
He takes the fastball wide, a 3-1 on Mickey.

112
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:24,000
Hasler says he feels good now, though he's had back trouble.

113
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,000
He was hurt when he tried to restrain Don Baylor.

114
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,000
You'll remember in that break at the Oakland.

115
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,000
And he has a poultice on his back to keep him in shape.

116
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:38,000
There's a strike call. He's got a curve over.

117
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:44,000
Hasler has been consulting with the hypnotist.

118
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:50,000
A gentleman named Dr. Ekin Allen, A-L-L-Y-N in Los Angeles,

119
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:55,000
who helped out Mari Wills, Roberta Fomente, and Ken Norton, among others.

120
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,000
Here's a 3-2 serve now to Rivers.

121
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,000
He claims a bounty ball, hit wide at third.

122
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,000
His contact with it for the first.

123
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,000
Down in time, Rivers kicks it out.

124
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:09,000
Speed, and Mickey Rivers picks up the single for him.

125
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:22,000
Man on first for New York, nobody down, and it'll be Roy White to swift batter.

126
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:26,000
Roy, one of the top hitters in the first two games, hitting 375.

127
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,000
That's three-three.

128
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:33,000
Two of them double, and he has two runs by the end.

129
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,000
So Rivers, who has tremendous speed,

130
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,000
taps one on the left out of the infield and beats it out.

131
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,000
Royals lead, clean up in first inning.

132
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,000
Here's a strike call.

133
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:49,000
George Maloney said so. He's a playdumb by.

134
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:54,000
Buck Martin is going out to talk again with his competitor, Andy Hasler.

135
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,000
One thing he might be saying, honey, is that he took a look down there,

136
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,000
and a long look at Rivers, who was well off the bag at first.

137
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:04,000
He bluffs the throw down there, didn't throw, and then he kept looking at Rivers,

138
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,000
and maybe he wanted to stay to half, or hey, watch him over there.

139
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:12,000
Now White digging in, strike one count on him.

140
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,000
He's set by the left-hander, half-frame looks over the first.

141
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,000
He pitches at the bunt, missed, throw to first, he's safe.

142
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,000
That was close.

143
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,000
Bill Haller, umpire, right on top of the player.

144
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,000
Strike two with a count on White.

145
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,000
In the Yankee system, the Billy Martin system,

146
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,000
The runners do not go unless they get permission from the bench.

147
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:38,000
They have to get the sign.

148
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:42,000
Rick Haller coaches his third, Elston Howard, the first base coach for the New Yorkers.

149
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:48,000
Royals play the Yankees first inning clean-hubbing at Yankee Stadium.

150
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,000
Now they're set by the tall left-hander, half the river's go.

151
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,000
The pitcher's swung on and fouled away.

152
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:57,000
That one hit on a high hop and bounced over the Yankee right-hander into the box seat.

153
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,000
The first call was even thrown out by...

154
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,000
Cincinnati won their game this afternoon at Riverfront Stadium,

155
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,000
7-6 over to Philly.

156
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:11,000
They gain a three-game sweep over to Philly and win the National League tennis.

157
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:16,000
They won those games 6-3, 6-2, and today they won 7-6.

158
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:20,000
Our congratulations to the Cincinnati Reds.

159
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:25,000
White digging in now, waiting on a strike two delivery from Haslund.

160
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,000
Rivers go where the lead doesn't go.

161
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:35,000
The pitch is wide, and the count is 1-2 now on Roy White.

162
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:39,000
Brett Deeper at third base with two strikes on the batter.

163
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:43,000
Hot-Tec and Randolph, the two-stone combination about in double play depth.

164
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:49,000
And Mayberry trying to keep Rivers close, but Rivers has a team-sized lead at the moment.

165
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,000
The pitch to White is outside.

166
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,000
Rivers holding on at first.

167
00:12:54,000 --> 00:13:10,000
Haslund trying to get the breaking kick over, and the miss on that one.

168
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:21,000
Throw to first to Mayberry, and the bat easily is Rivers.

169
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:25,000
Now White is spread out at the plate, waits on the next delivery.

170
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:30,000
He takes outside, that'll make it 3-2.

171
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:39,000
You know they really keep an eye on Mickey Rivers over their first base.

172
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,000
Royos lead the Yanks, 3-0 in the opening inning.

173
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,000
Rivers with a bigger lead.

174
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,000
He goes, the pitch is put on, missed.

175
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:47,000
Throw to second by Martinez.

176
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,000
He is out at second.

177
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,000
It is a double play.

178
00:13:50,000 --> 00:14:02,000
White covered the bag and took the tie down, Rivers cut down on the seal attempt as Roy White struck out.

179
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,000
That makes it two down, but the race is empty.

180
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:12,000
And here is Thurman Munson, a very fine, hanky-panky.

181
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,000
Munson hitting 3 for 10 and even 300 for the series.

182
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:21,000
One RBI and one extra base hit, that was a double.

183
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:26,000
Right hand about a wedding and Hasler deals a breaking ball outside.

184
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:34,000
Hasler has good speed, a fast ball that runs away from the right hand batter, down and away to him.

185
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,000
Royos 3-0 New York coming, first inning.

186
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,000
Yanks took back, they've got the race is empty now in two downs.

187
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,000
There's a cap foul right down in the dirt at the plate.

188
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,000
Good throw net by Martinez right on the target.

189
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,000
If there had to be right on the target too, the Rivers going,

190
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,000
they could have got a pretty good jump, but not an exceptional one.

191
00:14:53,000 --> 00:15:01,000
But it was a good fast ball and that was a good one to get off the bases for Kansas City.

192
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,000
And a half for Chakarie Stein with Martinez ready to work again.

193
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,000
They won one delivery, Munson takes a half cut.

194
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:11,000
He'll check with Hasler and he says he won a cross if he strikes.

195
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:16,000
Maloney at a plate umpire took a look to the umpire first base, Joe Haller.

196
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,000
Check on that one and Haller said he went across.

197
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:24,000
22 to count on Munson.

198
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:28,000
Hasler, he's a big guy, ready to go to work again.

199
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:41,000
He rocks into action, he pitches, there's a bombing foul down past Hickhouser, the third base coach.

200
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,000
There's going to be a difference in a World Series crowd and a playoffs crowd.

201
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,000
They're more excited here than they are in a World Series.

202
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:51,000
They sort of sit on their hands a lot of times in the Janky Stadium World Series.

203
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:55,000
They're different folks. I believe you're right about that.

204
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,000
It's more of an extension of the regular season too.

205
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:02,000
Here's the pitch. He takes a high curve.

206
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:06,000
22 to count on Munson.

207
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:10,000
Cowan's a set of fielders slightly over the left.

208
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:14,000
Wofford fairly deep in left field on Thurman.

209
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,000
Hasler looks him over, goes into action again.

210
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:20,000
The pitch is high again. That's the fastball.

211
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:24,000
3-2 and Hasler wants another ball to work with.

212
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,000
The Royals picked up three runs on three hits in the opening inning.

213
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,000
Wofford to Wolford, a single by Brett.

214
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:33,000
Got Wolford in after he stole second.

215
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,000
Mayberry single, sent Brett to third.

216
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:41,000
McRae knocked him in with a sacrifice five and Pochette doubled in Mayberry.

217
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,000
Here's the windup, the full count pitch.

218
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:49,000
He swings it back to right, going back, Pochette, he's there, he has it, and the inning is over.

219
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,000
The Yankees with no runs.

220
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,000
One hit, no errors, nobody left.

221
00:16:54,000 --> 00:17:22,000
And at the end of the first inning, Royals 3-7.

222
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:29,000
When you say ball, one hit, no errors, nobody left.

223
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:35,000
And at the end of the second inning, there's only one run by the Yankees.

224
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,000
When you say ball, there's nothing that you can't do.

225
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:43,000
When you say ball. When you say ball, you can run all the way.

226
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,000
When you say ball, you're not alone.

227
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,000
You're not alone.

228
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,000
When you say ball, you can do it all.

229
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:59,740
hello

230
00:17:59,740 --> 00:18:06,860
I don't believe testosterone

231
00:18:06,860 --> 00:18:08,860
The first inning here at Yankee Stadium tonight.

232
00:18:13,860 --> 00:18:18,860
Pockets, Martina, San Wilford, also will be the first three batters to face Doc Allen.

233
00:18:20,860 --> 00:18:25,860
The managers have not yet named their players for game four. They say they'll do it when this game is over,

234
00:18:25,860 --> 00:18:29,860
but speculation is it'll be Larry Gura, probably, for Kansas City.

235
00:18:29,860 --> 00:18:33,860
And if the Yankees are lose, they'll probably come back with Patrick Hunter.

236
00:18:33,860 --> 00:18:38,860
Should they win, Billy and Martin more than likely would use the Holtzman or Figueroa.

237
00:18:42,860 --> 00:18:44,860
Fifth Pockets at the plate.

238
00:18:44,860 --> 00:18:47,860
A little right hand batting shortstop facing Doc Allen.

239
00:18:47,860 --> 00:18:49,860
And it's a strike call.

240
00:18:51,860 --> 00:18:55,860
Fairly batting 286, that's two for seven in the series so far.

241
00:18:55,860 --> 00:19:02,860
A couple of ex-teammates against each other. They were both at Pittsburgh together.

242
00:19:02,860 --> 00:19:06,860
There's a strike, we got a quick slider over.

243
00:19:06,860 --> 00:19:09,860
Two strikes on Freddy Pockets.

244
00:19:13,860 --> 00:19:16,860
He stands fairly deep in the batter's boxThe outfield plays in the straightaway.

245
00:19:16,860 --> 00:19:19,860
The Yankee are back now. Fred takes the fastball very wide.

246
00:19:19,860 --> 00:19:22,860
Very wide.

247
00:19:22,860 --> 00:19:25,860
They're nothing royals. They got three in the opening inning.

248
00:19:25,860 --> 00:19:29,860
They're batting now in the secondThe Yankees started off as if they might do some damage.

249
00:19:29,860 --> 00:19:31,860
Single by Rivers, but then a strike out and he was cut down stealing.

250
00:19:31,860 --> 00:19:32,860
Bounding ball wide at first.

251
00:19:32,860 --> 00:19:34,860
Chambliss makes a good stop.

252
00:19:34,860 --> 00:19:37,860
Throw to Ellis covering and it is out of first base.

253
00:19:37,860 --> 00:19:40,860
Good play by Chambliss and Ellis combining.

254
00:19:40,860 --> 00:19:47,860
Chambliss had to go very wide, almost into the hole between first and second.

255
00:19:49,860 --> 00:19:53,860
Here's Buck Martinez on the right hand batting second.

256
00:19:54,860 --> 00:19:58,860
One down, nobody on second inning. Royals ahead, three nothing over the end.

257
00:19:58,860 --> 00:20:02,860
Martinez has one for six, but he has seven in two runs.

258
00:20:02,860 --> 00:20:10,860
He batted 148 against the Yankees during the regular campaign.

259
00:20:10,860 --> 00:20:13,860
Ellis has slowed up his pitching phase a little bit.

260
00:20:13,860 --> 00:20:17,860
He was working a lot quicker in the opening inning.

261
00:20:18,860 --> 00:20:23,860
Here's a tighter across, good pitch, strike called on Buck Martinez.

262
00:20:27,860 --> 00:20:30,860
One out, nobody on.

263
00:20:30,860 --> 00:20:33,860
Second is signed by Ellis. He delivers.

264
00:20:33,860 --> 00:20:36,860
There's a swing and a miss. That one about ladder high.

265
00:20:40,860 --> 00:20:44,860
Just about a capacity crowd here at the remodeled Yankee Stadium.

266
00:20:49,860 --> 00:20:53,860
Martinez waiting on the next delivery. Here it comes. He takes the strike.

267
00:20:53,860 --> 00:20:58,860
That one got the outside corner and he walks back to the bench to strike out victims.

268
00:20:58,860 --> 00:21:01,860
Two strikeouts for Doc Ellis.

269
00:21:02,860 --> 00:21:06,860
Here's Wolford who started the three run surge in the first of the day from ball.

270
00:21:09,860 --> 00:21:13,860
Seaboard coaches at first, for Kansas City.

271
00:21:15,860 --> 00:21:19,860
Chuck Hiller coaches at third. There's a bombing ball up the middle going for Stanley.

272
00:21:19,860 --> 00:21:22,860
Back of second he has it, throw to first, he's got it.

273
00:21:22,860 --> 00:21:28,860
Another good play by the Yankee infield and the Royals go down one, two, three.

274
00:21:28,860 --> 00:21:33,860
At the end of one and one half innings, Royals three Yankee snubbing.

275
00:21:34,860 --> 00:21:39,860
There I was, successful business man, wonderful family, nice home, no crabgrass.

276
00:21:39,860 --> 00:21:43,860
But I had to work for it all. I never actually won anything.

277
00:21:43,860 --> 00:21:47,860
Until I played budget rent-a-tie. I'd stand late to win two-thirds.

278
00:21:47,860 --> 00:21:52,860
Then the top of the line, I won. And you can see,

279
00:21:52,860 --> 00:21:56,860
we found every Yankee driver with five different prices.

280
00:22:00,860 --> 00:22:05,860
and he'll third iron-on. Look, there's no purchase necessary and the offer is fired November 30th.

288
00:22:33,860 --> 00:22:38,860
Lou Penella coming about and getting his usual Lou green.

289
00:22:38,860 --> 00:22:43,860
Something that follows him wherever he goes.

290
00:22:43,860 --> 00:22:48,860
They're not going up and out of there pronouncing his first name.

291
00:22:48,860 --> 00:22:52,860
He thought of an extended fashion on how to have.

292
00:22:52,860 --> 00:22:59,860
So now I was two for five. That's about a mark of 400.

293
00:22:59,860 --> 00:23:05,860
And has not quite ready to deliver yet.

294
00:23:05,860 --> 00:23:11,860
Wally Moses told me that he accidentally received one of the greatest ovations ever accorded to play in this ballpark.

295
00:23:11,860 --> 00:23:15,860
He was a battered Yankee Stadium when it was announced over the PA that Mussolini had been overthrown.

296
00:23:15,860 --> 00:23:18,860
He's premier of Italy.

297
00:23:18,860 --> 00:23:22,860
That was a real deal.

298
00:23:22,860 --> 00:23:25,860
Here's Penella stepping in now.

299
00:23:25,860 --> 00:23:28,860
Royal Spring, New York nothing.

300
00:23:28,860 --> 00:23:34,860
And the fifth, Pasquale delivers. It's been close.

301
00:23:34,860 --> 00:23:37,860
Big, strong-looking left-hander, Andy Haspel.

302
00:23:37,860 --> 00:23:43,860
Started the year, you remember, with a California Angels.

303
00:23:43,860 --> 00:23:47,860
Here's the windup and Haspel delivers. There's a bounding ball over his glove.

304
00:23:47,860 --> 00:23:50,860
Potec comes up with it. Throw to Mayberry. Good play.

305
00:23:50,860 --> 00:23:54,860
Got him. Potec ranging wide to his left.

306
00:23:54,860 --> 00:23:57,860
And Ned Frank White almost had a shot at that ball too.

307
00:23:57,860 --> 00:24:00,860
It looked as though either one of them could have made the play, but it was easier for Potec.

308
00:24:00,860 --> 00:24:07,860
He was crossing to his left and he had the play in front of him in the bag in front of him and of course has a stronger arm.

309
00:24:07,860 --> 00:24:13,860
Here's Chris Chambers now. He's hit play for the last nine games of the regular season and the first two in this series.

310
00:24:13,860 --> 00:24:17,860
And he's the top hitter on this club in this series, 5.56.

311
00:24:17,860 --> 00:24:19,860
5 for 9.

312
00:24:19,860 --> 00:24:21,860
Left hand about a waiting on Haspel.

313
00:24:21,860 --> 00:24:23,860
And he takes the fastball outside.

314
00:24:23,860 --> 00:24:28,860
Chambers also batted 383 against Kansas City 15 during the regular season.

315
00:24:28,860 --> 00:24:31,860
And a couple of home runs.

316
00:24:31,860 --> 00:24:35,860
Left hander against the left hander. One out. Royals lead 3-0 in the second.

317
00:24:35,860 --> 00:24:43,860
Here's the slider outside. Almost went for that one, but checked off.

318
00:24:43,860 --> 00:24:45,860
Brad White of the Tigers third.

319
00:24:45,860 --> 00:24:47,860
Chambers a close stance batter.

320
00:24:47,860 --> 00:24:49,860
Waiting on Haspel's two-0 pitch.

321
00:24:49,860 --> 00:24:53,860
Swing hard smash on the ground. A white at second. He has it. Throw to Mayberry.

322
00:24:53,860 --> 00:24:55,860
And they are two down.

323
00:24:55,860 --> 00:24:59,860
Let's pause ten seconds for station identification. This is the CBS Radio Network.

324
00:24:59,860 --> 00:25:04,860
With a 97-coin cash box sticker, you could win a set of keys or even money.

325
00:25:04,860 --> 00:25:07,860
But without this sticker, you get nothing.

326
00:25:07,860 --> 00:25:11,860
KOI and Portland.

327
00:25:11,860 --> 00:25:14,860
Along with Ned Martin, this is Ernie Harvada, Yankee Stadium.

328
00:25:14,860 --> 00:25:20,860
Three-nulling Royals, second inningThe Nettles get bat. Two out for the Yankees. Nobody on.

329
00:25:20,860 --> 00:25:24,860
Left hander batter takes a breaking pitch low.

330
00:25:24,860 --> 00:25:35,860
The home run champion of the American League, Greg Nettles, has one hit or double in seven turns at bat in the championship series.

331
00:25:35,860 --> 00:25:44,860
Takes the ball high to shoulder. Two-and-oh, the count on Greg.

332
00:25:44,860 --> 00:25:51,860
Hartrack has moved to his right side. Moving over toward the bag at second from the shortstop position.

333
00:25:51,860 --> 00:25:57,860
There's a low one outside. Three-and-oh on Nettles.

334
00:25:57,860 --> 00:26:01,860
Nettles had only one of his home runs against Kansas City.

335
00:26:01,860 --> 00:26:07,860
And he batted 143 against the Royals picking through the year.

336
00:26:07,860 --> 00:26:13,860
He takes a strike right through the heart of the plate above the knee. Three-and-one, the count on him.

337
00:26:13,860 --> 00:26:18,860
Royals lead the Yanks. Three-nulling. Yankees batting. Two out. None on. Second inning.

338
00:26:18,860 --> 00:26:24,860
There's a half-cut. Let's get the rulings. It is ball four. He walks in.

339
00:26:24,860 --> 00:26:31,860
Humphrey Maloney checking with the third base. Humphrey Larry McCoy. And he said he did not go across. It'll be a two-out walk.

340
00:26:31,860 --> 00:26:34,860
That's the first pitch in by Hartrack.

341
00:26:34,860 --> 00:26:41,860
And here is Elliot Maddox, the right-hand batting right fielder from the University of Michigan.

342
00:26:41,860 --> 00:26:45,860
Big 10 batting champion in his collegiate days.

343
00:26:45,860 --> 00:26:51,860
Maddox with one hit and four trips in the championship series.

344
00:26:51,860 --> 00:26:56,860
Nettles slightly to first base. Maddox backs away an inside fastball from Haslund.

345
00:26:56,860 --> 00:27:00,860
Three runs, three hits to the RoyalsThe Yanks have no runs on one hit.

346
00:27:00,860 --> 00:27:04,860
They've got an infield hit off Reuthers leading it off in the first inning.

347
00:27:04,860 --> 00:27:12,860
Haslund with a set position on the mound.

348
00:27:12,860 --> 00:27:17,860
In close, they're picking in close and low on Maddox.

349
00:27:17,860 --> 00:27:23,860
Against New York this year, Haslund didn't have any decisions.

350
00:27:23,860 --> 00:27:27,860
And he worked a total of 18 innings. He allowed 10 hits and two runs.

351
00:27:27,860 --> 00:27:30,860
One of them was earned.

352
00:27:30,860 --> 00:27:35,860
And his walk to strikeout ratio was good. He walked five and struck out 10.

353
00:27:39,860 --> 00:27:41,860
Now the little conference is over.

354
00:27:41,860 --> 00:27:44,860
Martinez down to give the sign, two-oh pitch to Maddox.

355
00:27:44,860 --> 00:27:47,860
He takes his strike. There he's got the breaking ball.

356
00:27:47,860 --> 00:27:50,860
Two and one, the count on Elliot Maddox.

357
00:27:50,860 --> 00:27:54,860
Maddox out about a year and a half with injuries.

358
00:27:54,860 --> 00:27:59,860
Our Nettles are trying to get a little longer lead at first base.

359
00:27:59,860 --> 00:28:02,860
It's a two-one pitch coming up.

360
00:28:02,860 --> 00:28:08,860
Maddox swings and hits one off his footThe ball bounds down toward Mayberry, South territory.

361
00:28:08,860 --> 00:28:11,860
Two-two, the count on Maddox.

362
00:28:14,860 --> 00:28:17,860
Maddox hit the old ballpark about fill now.

363
00:28:17,860 --> 00:28:19,860
I believe they finally did it.

364
00:28:19,860 --> 00:28:22,860
At first when we came on, there were a lot of blues going in those seats.

365
00:28:22,860 --> 00:28:27,860
But they've come close to capacity and probably will tomorrow too.

366
00:28:27,860 --> 00:28:32,860
And this more than likely now will be the biggest crowd of the year in the New Yankee Stadium.

367
00:28:34,860 --> 00:28:36,860
They drew over two million.

368
00:28:36,860 --> 00:28:39,860
They led the American League and paid attendance.

369
00:28:43,860 --> 00:28:47,860
The bench is trying to move Pochette over toward center field from right a little bit.

370
00:28:47,860 --> 00:28:49,860
Now Maddox swings and fouls it away.

371
00:28:49,860 --> 00:28:53,860
Pochette was hugging the line a little bit too much down in the right field corner.

372
00:28:55,860 --> 00:29:00,860
Riding her dog and killer and all of them were waving their captain arms.

373
00:29:00,860 --> 00:29:04,860
Planck may try to get Pochette to move over toward center field a little bit more.

374
00:29:04,860 --> 00:29:07,860
Still a two-two count on Maddox. Three nothing lawyers lead.

375
00:29:07,860 --> 00:29:10,860
Two outsThe Yankees have the Nettles at first base.

376
00:29:10,860 --> 00:29:13,860
The pitch is hung on and this is sucking off.

377
00:29:14,860 --> 00:29:17,860
And that's the tires the Yankees with no runs.

378
00:29:17,860 --> 00:29:20,860
No hits. They had a lot. No errors. One man left.

379
00:29:20,860 --> 00:29:23,860
And at the end of two innings, Kansas City three, New York nothing.

380
00:29:23,860 --> 00:29:26,860
Hey, let's go look for a new van this weekend.

381
00:29:26,860 --> 00:29:29,860
We've looked for a new van. You know that. There just aren't any vans around.

382
00:29:29,860 --> 00:29:33,860
But honey, I know Webster Wilford Ford out in Oregon City has some.

383
00:29:33,860 --> 00:29:36,860
We haven't looked there yet. And they not only have vans,

384
00:29:36,860 --> 00:29:40,860
they've also got pickups and four by fours and vans ready to be customized.

385
00:29:40,860 --> 00:29:43,860
Well, it's going to be the same old story we've heard everywhere else we've looked.

386
00:29:43,860 --> 00:29:46,860
We'll have to wait forever on delivery.

387
00:29:46,860 --> 00:29:48,860
So what's the rush about looking this weekend?

388
00:29:48,860 --> 00:29:51,860
Webster Wilford Ford has vans in stock right now.

389
00:29:51,860 --> 00:29:54,860
They're a small dealership, but that's where you get the best deal.

390
00:29:54,860 --> 00:29:57,860
From a little dealer that has a low overhead and a large inventory.

391
00:29:57,860 --> 00:30:01,860
All right. I'm convinced. But where is Webster Wilford Ford?

392
00:30:01,860 --> 00:30:03,860
Here in Oregon City at 11th and Main Street.

393
00:30:03,860 --> 00:30:07,860
I'm so excited. I've got the perfect van for us. I'll pick you out.

394
00:30:07,860 --> 00:30:10,860
Yeah, well that's just fine. You what?

395
00:30:10,860 --> 00:30:14,860
Uh oh. Well, I just happened to be driving by and I just...

396
00:30:14,860 --> 00:30:18,860
Webster Wilford Ford, now with a large selection of 76 vans in stock

397
00:30:18,860 --> 00:30:22,860
at 11th and Main Street in Oregon City.

398
00:30:26,860 --> 00:30:31,860
You're tuned to your CBS Radio Network station for games three in the American League Playoffs.

399
00:30:31,860 --> 00:30:35,860
And that means you'll be tuned to the only radio spot for the World Series.

400
00:30:35,860 --> 00:30:41,860
Starting Saturday, October 16, CBS Radio Sports brings you exclusive radio play-by-play coverage.

401
00:30:41,860 --> 00:30:45,860
Follow the series on radio right here.

402
00:30:48,860 --> 00:30:52,860
Rock Ellis on the mound for the Yanks now, 3-0, the Royals lead.

403
00:30:52,860 --> 00:30:56,860
Royals coming to bat in the first half of inning number three at Yankee Stadium.

404
00:30:56,860 --> 00:31:00,860
Game three of the American League Championship Series.

405
00:31:00,860 --> 00:31:03,860
The Yankees took the first one in Chatter City 4-1.

406
00:31:03,860 --> 00:31:07,860
The Royals came back on Sunday night tied with a 7-3 victory.

407
00:31:07,860 --> 00:31:11,860
Yesterday was an off day and action resumed here tonight in New York.

408
00:31:16,860 --> 00:31:21,860
First big championship game in Yankee Stadium since 1964.

409
00:31:21,860 --> 00:31:28,860
While here's Collins at the plate, he struck out his first trip against the Yankee right-hander Doc Ellis.

410
00:31:28,860 --> 00:31:32,860
There's a fastball in close around the knees.

411
00:31:32,860 --> 00:31:38,860
Collins has good all-around ball play and he's in center field because of the injury to Amos Odey.

412
00:31:38,860 --> 00:31:45,860
Here's the motion, the pick by Ellis, swing and a foul ball hit into the Royal dugout and it bounds out.

413
00:31:48,860 --> 00:31:52,860
Ellis a 1-0 against the Yankees this year.

414
00:31:55,860 --> 00:31:57,860
He won 17 in last state.

415
00:31:57,860 --> 00:32:00,860
Here's the pitch, he swings a bounding ball up the middle, a big hopper.

416
00:32:00,860 --> 00:32:02,860
Randolph deeped second, has it, throw to first.

417
00:32:02,860 --> 00:32:06,860
He is there in time and it's a base hit.

418
00:32:06,860 --> 00:32:08,860
Collins beat it out.

419
00:32:09,860 --> 00:32:13,860
Randolph did well just to get to that ball and then he couldn't get much on him.

420
00:32:13,860 --> 00:32:15,860
He was so deep back at second base.

421
00:32:15,860 --> 00:32:19,860
And when he hit for Collins, that is the fourth Royal hit.

422
00:32:23,860 --> 00:32:27,860
Here's George Fred who is eating up the Yankee picking in this series.

423
00:32:27,860 --> 00:32:33,860
He had a single and drove in the first run of the opening inning.

424
00:32:36,860 --> 00:32:38,860
He now has five for eight.

425
00:32:38,860 --> 00:32:41,860
That's 6.25.

426
00:32:42,860 --> 00:32:45,860
Man on first tower, he doesn't go.

427
00:32:45,860 --> 00:32:47,860
The pitch to Brett is a strike.

428
00:32:47,860 --> 00:32:52,860
And once again we see Rivers over to the left field side of Settick on George Brett.

429
00:32:52,860 --> 00:32:55,860
Brett is the dream of a batting coach.

430
00:32:55,860 --> 00:32:58,860
He does not try to put a home run every time.

431
00:32:58,860 --> 00:33:01,860
He'll go with a pitch, he won't try to pull everything.

432
00:33:01,860 --> 00:33:04,860
And he's got a good knowledge of the strike zone.

433
00:33:06,860 --> 00:33:09,860
Falls over to first but Collins is back with ease.

434
00:33:09,860 --> 00:33:11,860
Now the strike one pitch to George Brett.

435
00:33:11,860 --> 00:33:14,860
He takes the fastball outside, one and one.

436
00:33:18,860 --> 00:33:20,860
Mayberry waiting at the on deck.

437
00:33:20,860 --> 00:33:23,860
Mayberry waiting at the on deck circle.

438
00:33:27,860 --> 00:33:31,860
Ellis keeping a rather slow pace now.

439
00:33:31,860 --> 00:33:33,860
Royals lead the Yanks 3-0.

440
00:33:33,860 --> 00:33:35,860
We're in the third inning in New York.

441
00:33:35,860 --> 00:33:39,860
There's a pitch out but Collins is not moving.

442
00:33:41,860 --> 00:33:43,860
2-1 they count on Brett.

443
00:33:45,860 --> 00:33:48,860
Brett stepping out looking down at third base coach Hiller.

444
00:33:48,860 --> 00:33:51,860
Brett batted 3-0-8 last season.

445
00:33:55,860 --> 00:33:58,860
Now the pitch is caught on and hits down to third base.

446
00:33:58,860 --> 00:34:00,860
It'll be foul.

447
00:34:00,860 --> 00:34:05,860
Brett got his chance back in 73 when Paul Shaw was put out of action.

448
00:34:05,860 --> 00:34:09,860
He came up and played his first major league baseball at that time.

449
00:34:09,860 --> 00:34:12,860
And went down later and came back to save.

450
00:34:12,860 --> 00:34:16,860
Some people say Ernie that they kind of look good to watch him pitch.

451
00:34:16,860 --> 00:34:18,860
Because he's ambidextrous.

452
00:34:18,860 --> 00:34:22,860
He can throw equally as well with the left hand as he can with the right.

453
00:34:22,860 --> 00:34:24,860
That would be fun.

454
00:34:24,860 --> 00:34:26,860
2-2 to count on Brett.

455
00:34:26,860 --> 00:34:28,860
Ellis delivers.

456
00:34:28,860 --> 00:34:30,860
Here's a ball outside.

457
00:34:34,860 --> 00:34:38,860
Only one pitcher in major league history has ever done that in a competition.

458
00:34:38,860 --> 00:34:40,860
A fellow named Tony Malane.

459
00:34:40,860 --> 00:34:42,860
You broadcasted on his plane?

460
00:34:42,860 --> 00:34:44,860
Yeah, about 1890 I think it was.

461
00:34:44,860 --> 00:34:46,860
Here's the pitch. Runner goes. Bounding ball up the middle.

462
00:34:46,860 --> 00:34:48,860
Randolph has it in second.

463
00:34:48,860 --> 00:34:50,860
Touches the bag. Throw to first. Double play for the end.

464
00:34:50,860 --> 00:34:53,860
Oh, that ball was hit right in the right spot for New York.

465
00:34:53,860 --> 00:34:55,860
They had the hit and run on.

466
00:34:55,860 --> 00:34:57,860
Brett bounced one over the head of Ellis.

467
00:34:57,860 --> 00:34:59,860
Randolph breaking with the pitch.

468
00:34:59,860 --> 00:35:01,860
Moving over to his right toward second.

469
00:35:01,860 --> 00:35:02,860
Grabbed it. Touched the bag.

470
00:35:02,860 --> 00:35:04,860
And then he threw to first.

471
00:35:04,860 --> 00:35:06,860
And Brett was out by a good margin for the D.P.

472
00:35:10,860 --> 00:35:12,860
Now sometimes the hit and run will work for you then.

473
00:35:12,860 --> 00:35:14,860
And sometimes it will backfire just like that.

474
00:35:17,860 --> 00:35:19,860
This may bury the flake now.

475
00:35:21,860 --> 00:35:23,860
He had a single his first time up.

476
00:35:23,860 --> 00:35:26,860
There's a strike on the outside corner.

477
00:35:26,860 --> 00:35:28,860
Doc Ellis fed him a fast ball.

478
00:35:29,860 --> 00:35:33,860
Now this time Revers is playing him over in right center and very deep.

479
00:35:33,860 --> 00:35:35,860
The infield has shifted over on him too.

480
00:35:35,860 --> 00:35:37,860
There's a ball outside.

481
00:35:37,860 --> 00:35:40,860
Stanley is playing over on the right field side of second.

482
00:35:40,860 --> 00:35:42,860
Randolph is back in short right field.

483
00:35:42,860 --> 00:35:45,860
And Chambers near the line at deep first base.

484
00:35:45,860 --> 00:35:47,860
Only medals on the left side of the infield.

485
00:35:47,860 --> 00:35:49,860
Here's a bounding ball up the middle.

486
00:35:49,860 --> 00:35:51,860
Stanley grabs it back a second for the first.

487
00:35:51,860 --> 00:35:53,860
And the shift pays off for New York.

488
00:35:53,860 --> 00:35:55,860
A tricky hit away from Mayberry.

489
00:35:57,860 --> 00:36:00,860
No runs on one hit. No errors.

490
00:36:00,860 --> 00:36:02,860
Nobody left.

491
00:36:02,860 --> 00:36:05,860
And in the middle of the third, Royals 3-0.

492
00:36:05,860 --> 00:36:08,860
The final of the third, Royals 3-0.

493
00:36:35,860 --> 00:36:42,860
When you say bye, you tell the world you know what makes it all the way.

494
00:36:42,860 --> 00:36:46,860
When you say bye, you say you're carrying on.

495
00:36:46,860 --> 00:36:49,860
You only want the thing I feel.

496
00:36:49,860 --> 00:36:51,860
There is no other one.

497
00:36:51,860 --> 00:36:54,860
There's only something left.

498
00:36:54,860 --> 00:36:58,860
Because the thing I feel is leading on away.

499
00:36:58,860 --> 00:37:02,860
When you say bye, why the?

500
00:37:02,860 --> 00:37:04,860
You said it all.

501
00:37:04,860 --> 00:37:06,860
Here he comes, 의D.

502
00:37:11,860 --> 00:37:14,860
And the former Nashville legger, Winnie Randolph will lead off the New Yorkers.

503
00:37:14,860 --> 00:37:17,860
And the third, the Royals have a 3-0 lead over the Yankees.

504
00:37:17,860 --> 00:37:18,860
They've got all three of them.

505
00:37:18,860 --> 00:37:20,860
Doc Ellis in the opening inning.

506
00:37:20,860 --> 00:37:23,860
Fender Hassler ready to deal him in to Randolph...

507
00:37:23,860 --> 00:37:27,860
who is looking for his first hit in the championship series.

508
00:37:27,860 --> 00:37:31,860
He batted T96 against Kansas City during the regular season.

509
00:37:31,860 --> 00:37:39,860
Randolph and McRae are the only two regulars that would house his so far in the playoffs.

510
00:37:45,860 --> 00:37:51,860
Here's the right hand batting Randolph at the plate and half for the big strong looking left hander ready to go into action.

511
00:37:51,860 --> 00:37:54,860
Three nothing royal, yanked it back in the third.

512
00:37:54,860 --> 00:38:01,860
There's a strike, that's breaking down on the lander.

513
00:38:01,860 --> 00:38:18,860
We are experiencing some technical difficulties from New York, please stand by.

514
00:38:18,860 --> 00:38:21,860
This is KOY in Portland, Fort Key, that's six o'clock.

515
00:38:21,860 --> 00:38:39,860
We lost our audio feed from New York temporarily and we will have it back for you we hope momentarily.

516
00:38:39,860 --> 00:38:47,860
In the meantime I would like to remind you that we have a University of Oregon football game that will be coming up on Saturday,

517
00:38:47,860 --> 00:38:51,860
it's going to be the second game on Saturday.

518
00:38:51,860 --> 00:38:56,860
The game is going to be a game between the University of Oregon Ducks and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

519
00:38:56,860 --> 00:39:03,860
That game is live and direct and I am sorry I gave you an incorrect start time, that starts I believe at 10.15 because they do play back in Southdend, Indiana.

520
00:39:03,860 --> 00:39:07,860
Seattle Seahawks take on Tampa Bay this coming Sunday.

521
00:39:07,860 --> 00:39:12,860
That schedule their time is 10.40 on Sunday morning.

522
00:39:12,860 --> 00:39:17,200
here in the football, particularly the University of Oregon or Seattle Seahawks football,

523
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,700
to show you where you are on sports day in 1996.

524
00:39:21,700 --> 00:39:28,780
We have temporarily lost our audio transmission of the game between the Yankees and the Royals.

525
00:39:28,780 --> 00:39:30,340
We'll have it back for you as soon as we can.

526
00:39:30,340 --> 00:39:43,340
In the meantime, we'll give you a little music until we can establish our communication lines again.

527
00:42:00,340 --> 00:42:24,060
This is K.O.I. in Portland, and we temporarily have lost our broadcast as the New York Yankees

528
00:42:24,060 --> 00:42:47,020
and the Kansas City Royals championship game.

529
00:42:47,020 --> 00:42:50,020
Kelly's Lazyboy Showcase is having a World Series sale now.

530
00:42:50,020 --> 00:42:54,020
We want you to enjoy the games in the world's most popular and comfortable chair,

00:42:54,020 --> 00:42:58,020

533
00:43:03,020 --> 00:43:05,020
swivel rockers, and office chairs.

00:43:05,020 --> 00:43:10,020
They're on display and ready to go in a great selection of styles, fabrics, and colors

535
00:43:10,020 --> 00:43:16,020
at Kelly's Lazyboy Showcase, Northeast 42nd and Sandy Boulevard in Hollywood.

536
00:43:16,020 --> 00:43:18,020
Boots sales in a great office.

537
00:43:18,020 --> 00:43:21,020
Hillsboro Dodd, we're a good listener.

538
00:43:21,020 --> 00:43:23,020
Boots sales in such growth.

539
00:43:23,020 --> 00:43:27,020
Hillsboro Dodd service manager, Maureen Yonca.

540
00:43:27,020 --> 00:43:31,020
And here's parts manager, Don Peterson.

541
00:43:31,020 --> 00:43:35,020
Oh, well, if you are a good listener, as we really are at Hillsboro Dodd,

542
00:43:35,020 --> 00:43:39,020
we listen, learn what you need, and give you great service on your car or truck.

543
00:43:39,020 --> 00:43:45,020
Hillsboro Dodd, formerly Bundy Dodd, first and Washington.

544
00:43:45,020 --> 00:43:49,020
The game is now at the end of the third inning with the Kansas City Roros

545
00:43:49,020 --> 00:43:52,020
holding a 2-0 lead over the New York Yankees.

546
00:43:52,020 --> 00:43:55,020
I'm sorry about the problem we're having with the network.

547
00:43:55,020 --> 00:43:58,020
As soon as we can reestablish our communication lines with New York,

548
00:43:58,020 --> 00:44:01,020
we'll bring that game to you live on direct via CBS.

549
00:44:01,020 --> 00:44:03,020
In the meantime, I'll give you some news.

550
00:44:03,020 --> 00:44:16,020
We'll be back at 10, 97 and Portland.

551
00:44:33,020 --> 00:44:36,020
We'll be right back.

552
00:45:03,020 --> 00:45:30,020
Yeah.

553
00:45:30,020 --> 00:45:47,020
Yeah.

554
00:45:47,020 --> 00:46:01,020
Yeah.

555
00:46:01,020 --> 00:46:18,020
Yeah.

556
00:46:18,020 --> 00:46:32,020
Yeah.

557
00:46:32,020 --> 00:46:49,020
Yeah.

558
00:46:49,020 --> 00:47:03,020
Yeah.

559
00:47:03,020 --> 00:47:06,020
You'll get a great little car that gives you what to pay for

560
00:47:06,020 --> 00:47:09,020
and 200 gallons of gas and do it.

561
00:47:09,020 --> 00:47:30,020
In California, you see a estimate from lower.

562
00:47:30,020 --> 00:47:37,020
California, you see a estimate from lower.

563
00:47:37,020 --> 00:47:40,020
Yeah.

564
00:47:40,020 --> 00:48:09,020
Yeah.

565
00:48:09,020 --> 00:48:14,020
Yeah.

566
00:48:14,020 --> 00:48:23,020
Yeah.

567
00:48:23,020 --> 00:48:48,020
Yeah.

568
00:48:48,020 --> 00:49:01,020
Yeah.

569
00:49:01,020 --> 00:49:28,020
Yeah.

570
00:49:28,020 --> 00:49:45,020
Yeah.

571
00:49:45,020 --> 00:50:06,020
Yeah.

572
00:50:06,020 --> 00:50:21,020
Yeah.

573
00:50:21,020 --> 00:50:36,020
Yeah.

574
00:50:36,020 --> 00:50:51,020
Yeah.

575
00:50:51,020 --> 00:51:06,020
Yeah.

576
00:51:06,020 --> 00:51:21,020
Yeah.

577
00:51:21,020 --> 00:51:36,020
Yeah.

578
00:51:36,020 --> 00:51:51,020
Yeah.

579
00:51:51,020 --> 00:52:06,020
Yeah.

580
00:52:06,020 --> 00:52:21,020
Yeah.

581
00:52:21,020 --> 00:52:36,020
Yeah.

582
00:52:36,020 --> 00:52:51,020
Yeah.

583
00:52:51,020 --> 00:53:10,020
Yeah.

584
00:53:10,020 --> 00:53:25,020
Yeah.

585
00:53:25,020 --> 00:53:40,020
Yeah.

586
00:53:40,020 --> 00:53:55,020
Yeah.

587
00:53:55,020 --> 00:54:10,020
Yeah.

588
00:54:10,020 --> 00:54:12,020
Yeah.

589
00:54:12,020 --> 00:54:23,020
Yeah.

590
00:54:23,020 --> 00:54:34,020
Yeah.

591
00:54:34,020 --> 00:54:51,020
Yeah.

592
00:54:51,020 --> 00:54:55,020
Yeah.

593
00:54:55,020 --> 00:55:07,020
Yeah.

594
00:55:07,020 --> 00:55:13,020
Royals got three in the first.

595
00:55:13,020 --> 00:55:16,020
The Yanks just returned with two here in the fourth.

596
00:55:16,020 --> 00:55:19,020
It's a fastball outside.

597
00:55:19,020 --> 00:55:22,020
High and away to Greg Nettles, 2-2.

598
00:55:22,020 --> 00:55:27,020
Willie Martin leaning in front of the bug out.

599
00:55:27,020 --> 00:55:30,020
Put on the second step, watching the action.

600
00:55:30,020 --> 00:55:31,020
The 2-2 fifth.

601
00:55:31,020 --> 00:55:33,020
He took it low.

602
00:55:33,020 --> 00:55:35,020
That was a curve.

603
00:55:35,020 --> 00:55:43,020
3-2, they count on Nettles.

604
00:55:43,020 --> 00:55:47,020
Now has to check his time with sector Martinez.

605
00:55:47,020 --> 00:55:49,020
Wind up the pitch on the way.

606
00:55:49,020 --> 00:55:50,020
Swing and a miss.

607
00:55:50,020 --> 00:55:53,020
He struck him out on a curve.

608
00:55:53,020 --> 00:55:56,020
God retired but the Yankees get two on the double by Pennella.

609
00:55:56,020 --> 00:55:58,020
The home run by Shambles.

610
00:55:58,020 --> 00:56:00,020
Two runs, two hits, no errors.

611
00:56:00,020 --> 00:56:02,020
Nobody left and at the end of the fourth inning,

612
00:56:02,020 --> 00:56:05,020
Royals three Yankees two.

613
00:56:05,020 --> 00:56:07,020
Now that you're about to buy a microwave oven,

614
00:56:07,020 --> 00:56:09,020
know the facts about teaching.

615
00:56:09,020 --> 00:56:12,020
These are the facts from the Amana Kuchmatic Radar Range,

616
00:56:12,020 --> 00:56:15,020
The first microwave oven with a memory.

617
00:56:15,020 --> 00:56:19,020
Set it and it remembers to defrost, cook and call you when dinner's ready.

618
00:56:19,020 --> 00:56:21,020
Freeze it to table one, two, three.

619
00:56:21,020 --> 00:56:26,020
Amana Kuchmatic Power Shift lets you select the cooking speed you need.

620
00:56:26,020 --> 00:56:28,020
Put you in full control of everything you cook.

621
00:56:28,020 --> 00:56:33,020
Amana's 675 watts of cooking power cooks almost everything in one-fourth

622
00:56:33,020 --> 00:56:35,020
The usual time and saves energy.

623
00:56:35,020 --> 00:56:40,020
Uses 50 to 75 percent less energy than a conventional electric range.

624
00:56:40,020 --> 00:56:44,020
The stainless steel interior is big enough to roast a family-sized turkey.

625
00:56:44,020 --> 00:56:47,020
The removable glass oven tray catches, fills and boil overs.

626
00:56:47,020 --> 00:56:51,020
All this plus Amana's full five-year warranty on the Magnitron.

627
00:56:51,020 --> 00:56:57,020
Covered Magnitron costs, labor charges, even the service man's travel expenses for five years.

628
00:56:57,020 --> 00:56:59,020
These are the facts.

629
00:56:59,020 --> 00:57:03,020
Amana believes once you know the facts, you'll buy an Amana Kuchmatic Radar Range.

630
00:57:03,020 --> 00:57:05,020
Simple as that.

631
00:57:07,020 --> 00:57:10,020
It's the first one now, Royals 3, Yankees 2.

632
00:57:10,020 --> 00:57:14,020
We go to the fifth inning of game number three in the American League Championship Series.

633
00:57:14,020 --> 00:57:16,020
This one at Yankee Stadium.

634
00:57:16,020 --> 00:57:21,020
The first here in New York after the two teams divided their first two games

635
00:57:21,020 --> 00:57:24,020
in Royals Stadium in Kansas City.

636
00:57:24,020 --> 00:57:27,020
Doc Ellis on the mound for the Yankees.

637
00:57:27,020 --> 00:57:31,020
And the hasler is the pitcher for Kansas City.

638
00:57:31,020 --> 00:57:34,020
And now Ellis getting ready to pitch to the Royals in the fifth inning.

639
00:57:34,020 --> 00:57:36,020
It'll be Freddy Potec that leads it off.

640
00:57:36,020 --> 00:57:39,020
Followed by the number nine batter, Buck Martinez.

641
00:57:39,020 --> 00:57:42,020
And then the leadoff man, Jim Wolford.

642
00:57:42,020 --> 00:57:46,020
Potec bounced out the first base his first time at bat.

643
00:57:47,020 --> 00:57:52,020
Samus made a good play going wide to his right over toward second base.

644
00:57:52,020 --> 00:57:59,020
And Ellis also made a good play combining with Samus as he raced for the mound to take the 12 from Chris.

645
00:58:01,020 --> 00:58:06,020
So here's the rubber shot top Potec who is spotful with the glove already.

646
00:58:06,020 --> 00:58:08,020
Now comes up with a bat.

647
00:58:09,020 --> 00:58:12,020
Ellis looking around at his infield alignment.

648
00:58:12,020 --> 00:58:21,020
Now he's ready for action. He pitches and Fred takes his sights.

649
00:58:23,020 --> 00:58:28,020
Now the floor of the game was all Kansas City for a while and now it seems to belong to the Yankees.

650
00:58:28,020 --> 00:58:32,020
Potec swings a bombing ball up the middle. It'll be through for a hit.

651
00:58:32,020 --> 00:58:36,020
Ellis made a method to grab that ball as it went by but he couldn't get it.

652
00:58:36,020 --> 00:58:42,020
And Potec is down with a single.

653
00:58:45,020 --> 00:58:50,020
In four to five innings the Royals have put their leadoff man on base against Doc Ellis.

654
00:58:50,020 --> 00:58:54,020
But only in one inning have they scored. They got all three of their runs in the first.

655
00:58:54,020 --> 00:58:57,020
Here's Buck Martinez who's took a called third strike.

656
00:58:57,020 --> 00:59:00,020
He has only dripped to the plate.

657
00:59:00,020 --> 00:59:03,020
Nattles is in close in case Martinez wants to bunt.

658
00:59:03,020 --> 00:59:07,020
Shambler's holding on the bag with Potec and there's a throw over there.

659
00:59:07,020 --> 00:59:09,020
Fred gets back safely.

660
00:59:10,020 --> 00:59:13,020
Excellent base runner, Freddy Potec.

661
00:59:15,020 --> 00:59:18,020
Shambler's trying to keep him close to the bag at first.

662
00:59:18,020 --> 00:59:21,020
One run lead for the Royals, three to two.

663
00:59:21,020 --> 00:59:25,020
It's a ball in too close on the catcher Martinez.

664
00:59:25,020 --> 00:59:32,020
It'll be followed by the leadoff man Wilford here in the Royal fifth inning.

665
00:59:32,020 --> 00:59:36,020
Candice Philly with three runs and five hits and no errors.

666
00:59:36,020 --> 00:59:39,020
And the Yankees have two runs, three hits and no errors.

667
00:59:39,020 --> 00:59:43,020
Now the set by Ellis, the right hander, pitches out but nothing happens.

668
00:59:43,020 --> 00:59:45,020
Potec's holding it first.

669
00:59:45,020 --> 00:59:55,020
Freddy had 51 steals in the regular season and they nipped him 15 times.

670
00:59:55,020 --> 00:59:58,020
Jacksson and Dick Sidrow throwing the Yankee ball in now.

671
00:59:58,020 --> 01:00:00,020
Left handed and the right handed.

672
01:00:00,020 --> 01:00:04,020
The first Potec is back easily.

673
01:00:04,020 --> 01:00:14,020
He and Odey are the only Royals who are allowed to go strictly on their own on a steal.

674
01:00:14,020 --> 01:00:16,020
He goes, a 50 is one on miss.

675
01:00:16,020 --> 01:00:18,020
Here's Munson's throw.

676
01:00:18,020 --> 01:00:20,020
He is out at second.

677
01:00:20,020 --> 01:00:22,020
And Potec doesn't believe it.

678
01:00:22,020 --> 01:00:24,020
He's putting up a big argument with Tronc.

679
01:00:24,020 --> 01:00:27,020
Stanley came across, took the throw.

680
01:00:27,020 --> 01:00:29,020
It was a high throw on the right field side.

681
01:00:29,020 --> 01:00:31,020
Freddy thought he'd split under it.

682
01:00:31,020 --> 01:00:35,020
But Odey, the second of ace on fire, signaled him out.

683
01:00:35,020 --> 01:00:36,020
And there'll be an argument out there.

684
01:00:36,020 --> 01:00:38,020
Why did his ball get gone out?

685
01:00:38,020 --> 01:00:40,020
Go have your two coaches.

686
01:00:40,020 --> 01:00:46,020
Close play, I think they're arguing that he had split past the tag and the tag never had been made.

687
01:00:46,020 --> 01:00:49,020
The throw was there and so was Freddy.

688
01:00:49,020 --> 01:00:56,020
And he was awfully mad for a moment and immediately Hiller came out to take the heat off Potec so he wouldn't be ejected from the game.

689
01:00:56,020 --> 01:01:00,020
You've got to do an awful lot of course to be ejected from a World Series.

690
01:01:00,020 --> 01:01:07,020
Freddy was not quite that skinny, but he had a few things to say to our French, the second base on fire.

691
01:01:07,020 --> 01:01:14,020
And that Jimmy Martin's gone out now and he's taken up an argument with Bill Haller exactly about what I couldn't say.

692
01:01:14,020 --> 01:01:24,020
I don't know either, Bill. You'd better stop it. These things are going your way right now.

693
01:01:24,020 --> 01:01:28,020
Anyway, Potec is out on the steal attempt.

694
01:01:28,020 --> 01:01:34,020
And a very tough argument out there around second base is over.

695
01:01:34,020 --> 01:01:43,020
But Martin continues his discussion with the first base on fire, Haller.

696
01:01:43,020 --> 01:01:50,020
He keeps pointing out towards second.

697
01:01:50,020 --> 01:01:55,020
And the argument continues down there just inside of first base.

698
01:01:55,020 --> 01:02:00,020
As of right now, I don't see any Royal runner down there, so Billy has had his say.

699
01:02:00,020 --> 01:02:04,020
Maybe he wants him to watch something about base running or somebody going out of the line or not.

700
01:02:04,020 --> 01:02:08,020
That project didn't go out of the line.

701
01:02:08,020 --> 01:02:13,020
Martinez at the plate and they count on him as two balls and one strike.

702
01:02:13,020 --> 01:02:16,020
The action resumes here, 3-2, the Royals in the lead.

703
01:02:16,020 --> 01:02:18,020
They're batting in the fifth inning against Doc Ellis.

704
01:02:18,020 --> 01:02:24,020
Bounding ball hit to Randolph. He has a nice, easy hop, throw to Chambliss, and there are two down.

705
01:02:24,020 --> 01:02:30,020
That's all he can show, Scott, in fourth time.

706
01:02:30,020 --> 01:02:34,020
That'll bring up the leadoff man, Jim Wolford.

707
01:02:34,020 --> 01:02:36,020
Jim has walked him short a run and bounced him shortstop.

708
01:02:36,020 --> 01:02:40,020
That gives him hope of one official in the night.

709
01:02:40,020 --> 01:02:46,020
He has one hit and eight turns so far in the series.

710
01:02:46,020 --> 01:02:50,020
Right-hander against the right-hander. He starts the run and takes the ball wide.

711
01:02:50,020 --> 01:02:55,020
Ball one.

712
01:02:55,020 --> 01:03:00,020
3-2, Royals lead the game. We're in the fifth inning in New York.

713
01:03:00,020 --> 01:03:04,020
Tryck, Ellis at the outside corner. Ellis has settled down a little bit.

714
01:03:04,020 --> 01:03:11,020
He's had good defensive support tonight.

715
01:03:11,020 --> 01:03:14,020
Neither team has made an error so far.

716
01:03:14,020 --> 01:03:24,020
They cut in a miss on a knee-high pitch, and the doubt now is one ball and two strikes on Wolford.

717
01:03:24,020 --> 01:03:28,020
Now Cowan's right on deck for KC.

718
01:03:28,020 --> 01:03:32,020
Now the look of a sign for Ellis. Here's the windup on the pitch.

719
01:03:32,020 --> 01:03:36,020
He swings, fly ball, sort of feel. Rivers backing up. He's there. He has it.

720
01:03:36,020 --> 01:03:40,020
And the five retire.

721
01:03:40,020 --> 01:03:45,020
One run, one hit, no errors, and nobody left in the middle of the fifth inning.

722
01:03:45,020 --> 01:03:48,020
The score is Royals lead the Yankees 2.

723
01:03:48,020 --> 01:03:52,020
Kelly's Lazy Boy Showcase is having a World Series sale now.

724

729
01:04:18,020 --> 01:04:23,020
Most salesmen are great talkers. Hillsboro Dodd, we're good listeners.

730
01:04:23,020 --> 01:04:25,020
Three salesmen cut the rope.

731
01:04:25,020 --> 01:04:29,020
And Hillsboro Dodd service manager, Maureen Younger.

732
01:04:29,020 --> 01:04:33,020
And here's parts manager, Don Peterson.

733
01:04:33,020 --> 01:04:37,020
Oh well, if you are good listeners, we really are Hillsboro Dodd.

734
01:04:37,020 --> 01:04:41,020
Listen, learn what you need, and give you great service on your car or truck.

735
01:04:41,020 --> 01:04:46,020
Hillsboro Dodd, formerly Bungie Dodd, first and Washington.

736
01:04:46,020 --> 01:04:56,020
TBS Radio 4 is bringing you the play-by-play action in the American League Championship.

737
01:04:56,020 --> 01:05:00,020
And there's more to comeThe World Series starts October 16th.

738
01:05:00,020 --> 01:05:07,020
That's next Saturday, and you'll hear exclusive radio coverage play-by-play of the 1976 World Series

739
01:05:07,020 --> 01:05:14,020
right here on the TBS Radio Network station.

740
01:05:14,020 --> 01:05:18,020
Halfway through the game here at Yankee Stadium, we're going into the last half of the fifth inning,

741
01:05:18,020 --> 01:05:23,020
The Royals three runs five hits, no errors. New York two runs three hits, no errors.

742
01:05:23,020 --> 01:05:29,020
And it's my pleasure now to bring in my colleague, a longtime voice, to the Boston Red Sox, Ned Martin.

743
01:05:29,020 --> 01:05:34,020
Thank you, Ernie Hywell. And here we go in inning number five, bottom half.

744
01:05:34,020 --> 01:05:38,020
The Yankees trailing by a run. And you get the feeling it's somewhere along the line.

745
01:05:38,020 --> 01:05:42,020
This game is going to develop into a beauty because there is a tension.

746
01:05:42,020 --> 01:05:46,020
Each team has played well, has hit in timely back in time.

747
01:05:46,020 --> 01:05:51,020
There have been no errors. There's been one pass fall, but that didn't really figure any out there in runs.

748
01:05:51,020 --> 01:05:55,020
Elliot Maddux will lead it off. He struck out swinging to end the second inning.

749
01:05:55,020 --> 01:06:01,020
Andy Hassler's only real mistake was a ball out over the plate to Chris Shambler,

750
01:06:01,020 --> 01:06:04,020
who landed in the right center for a two-run homer.

751
01:06:04,020 --> 01:06:09,020
Right before that, the hit by Panella was a ball that just eluded George Brett at third.

752
01:06:09,020 --> 01:06:17,020
He went over to backhand it, flipped away from him, and then got involved in that ground rule double ruling.

753
01:06:17,020 --> 01:06:26,020
Maddux stands in, right-handed batter. Andy Hassler all set to pick to it.

754
01:06:26,020 --> 01:06:33,020
Left-hander kicks and throws and curves him down and in, ball one.

755
01:06:33,020 --> 01:06:41,020
Again, an appeal. More appeals toward the corner umpires tonight than there have been in the first couple of games on check-swing.

756
01:06:41,020 --> 01:06:48,020
A plate umpire will tell you that's probably his toughest call.

757
01:06:48,020 --> 01:06:54,020
Ground ball, shortstop way again. A busy Freddy Patek up and over in time.

758
01:06:54,020 --> 01:07:02,020
Maddux grounds to short. Freddy Patek continues to have heavy traffic down there at shortstop.

759
01:07:02,020 --> 01:07:06,020
Five assist for him and a putout.

760
01:07:06,020 --> 01:07:13,020
Charlie Randolph grounded to Patek in the third.

761
01:07:13,020 --> 01:07:19,020
Right-handed hitting the second baseman for the Yankees.

762
01:07:19,020 --> 01:07:22,020
The hit by Hassler and it's up high, ball one.

763
01:07:22,020 --> 01:07:26,020
Hassler can throw hard, features a fast ball that's...

764
01:07:26,020 --> 01:07:28,020
...sinked for the most part.

765
01:07:28,020 --> 01:07:32,020
Will run away from the right-handed batter and tries to keep it around the knees.

766
01:07:32,020 --> 01:07:38,020
But he's got good velocity on it, unlike a lot of sinker ball pitchers who just keep it there and change speed.

767
01:07:38,020 --> 01:07:42,020
The next pitch is high, ball two, and the count is two and over to Randolph.

768
01:07:42,020 --> 01:07:48,020
Hassler has a sinking fast ball and a slider.

769
01:07:48,020 --> 01:07:49,020
2-0 pitch.

770
01:07:49,020 --> 01:07:54,020
Fast ball way outside to Randolph, ball three.

771
01:07:54,020 --> 01:08:01,020
So Willie has the count entirely his way, three balls, no strikes.

772
01:08:01,020 --> 01:08:05,020
Royals three, Yankees two, bottom of the fifth inning.

773
01:08:05,020 --> 01:08:06,020
Hit it.

774
01:08:06,020 --> 01:08:11,020
Strike called right there.

775
01:08:11,020 --> 01:08:17,020
Randolph now checks off with third base coach Dick Hauser.

776
01:08:17,020 --> 01:08:20,020
Hitter take on three and one.

777
01:08:20,020 --> 01:08:21,020
One out.

778
01:08:21,020 --> 01:08:26,020
Hassler works inside ball four.

779
01:08:26,020 --> 01:08:31,020
Randolph on with a one-out walk and he represents the tying run.

780
01:08:31,020 --> 01:08:34,020
Bringing to the plate the number nine hitter, Mickey...

781
01:08:34,020 --> 01:08:37,020
...Fred Stanley.

782
01:08:37,020 --> 01:08:41,020
He's already in the flip sometime when he's confused that it's Mickey Stanley.

783
01:08:41,020 --> 01:08:46,020
The Evergreens, center fielder, infielder, whatever you want with the Dodgers.

784
01:08:46,020 --> 01:08:50,020
The veteran along with Fred Stanley, the Yankee shortstop.

785
01:08:50,020 --> 01:08:55,020
Fred pops up to Patek in the third.

786
01:08:55,020 --> 01:08:57,020
Big lead by Randolph.

787
01:08:57,020 --> 01:09:04,020
He shoots back to first on a throw over there.

788
01:09:04,020 --> 01:09:12,020
Willie Randolph can steal a base for you also.

789
01:09:12,020 --> 01:09:17,020
He gets back and another throw over there and Nelson Howard is claiming box.

790
01:09:17,020 --> 01:09:21,020
It is not ruled a box, but L.A. Howard immediately went up to Bill Haller and said,

791
01:09:21,020 --> 01:09:27,020
Hey, what about that move to first?

792
01:09:27,020 --> 01:09:31,020
But it was declared a legal throw over there and no motion toward the plate made.

793
01:09:31,020 --> 01:09:33,020
Here's the fifth to the plate.

794
01:09:33,020 --> 01:09:35,020
Strike called on Stanley.

795
01:09:35,020 --> 01:09:41,020
Shortened up on the bat and took a fastball inside corner.

796
01:09:41,020 --> 01:09:50,020
In the royal bullpen, their first action, left-hander Tom Hall and right-hander Marty Tappen.

797
01:09:50,020 --> 01:09:54,020
The count is all in one with Stanley.

798
01:09:54,020 --> 01:09:58,020
He backs out asking for time.

799
01:09:58,020 --> 01:10:03,020
Now sets himself.

800
01:10:03,020 --> 01:10:06,020
Randolph leads away from first, a four or five step lead.

801
01:10:06,020 --> 01:10:11,020
A curve ball, but a bad miss for a strike.

802
01:10:11,020 --> 01:10:13,020
They did call it a strike.

803
01:10:13,020 --> 01:10:16,020
They haven't put it on the board yet.

804
01:10:16,020 --> 01:10:17,020
Nope, he called the ball.

805
01:10:17,020 --> 01:10:19,020
One ball, one strike.

806
01:10:19,020 --> 01:10:21,020
One and one.

807
01:10:21,020 --> 01:10:32,020
It appears that the strike call had been given, but it's one ball, one strike now with one out.

808
01:10:32,020 --> 01:10:37,020
Barely seeing about advancing that run to second base or hitting behind the runner.

809
01:10:37,020 --> 01:10:39,020
Good lead by Randolph.

810
01:10:39,020 --> 01:10:40,020
Back he goes to first.

811
01:10:40,020 --> 01:10:45,020
Low throw dug out by Maybury.

812
01:10:45,020 --> 01:10:46,020
Tight ball game.

813
01:10:46,020 --> 01:10:52,020
He's trailing three-two as they bat in the fifth.

814
01:10:52,020 --> 01:10:56,020
Randolph goes into a good-sized lead at first base.

815
01:10:56,020 --> 01:10:59,020
Which is high and tight.

816
01:10:59,020 --> 01:11:03,020
Two and one.

817
01:11:03,020 --> 01:11:10,020
Depending on the runner, as a matter of some, runners like to take a lead like Randolph takes.

818
01:11:10,020 --> 01:11:14,020
Some get a better jump and will take only about a four-step lead.

819
01:11:14,020 --> 01:11:16,020
Some like Randolph take five-steps.

820
01:11:16,020 --> 01:11:23,020
Tommy Harper, who's a fine base dealer in the American League for years, likes a five-step lead.

821
01:11:23,020 --> 01:11:26,020
Others will get a walking start.

822
01:11:26,020 --> 01:11:30,020
Some like Lou Brock try to move the top part of their body.

823
01:11:30,020 --> 01:11:34,020
And that's what they call the jump instead of the feet.

824
01:11:34,020 --> 01:11:36,020
It's the lean.

825
01:11:36,020 --> 01:11:38,020
Here's the pitch.

826
01:11:38,020 --> 01:11:43,020
Inside, ball three.

827
01:11:43,020 --> 01:11:48,020
Time call by Maybury as he goes to the mound to talk to his sister, Hassler.

828
01:11:48,020 --> 01:11:52,020
Trying to settle Andy down now.

829
01:11:52,020 --> 01:11:55,020
There's one out in the Yankee fifth inning.

830
01:11:55,020 --> 01:11:58,020
Willie Randolph at first.

831
01:11:58,020 --> 01:12:01,020
The count is three and one to Stanley.

832
01:12:01,020 --> 01:12:07,020
And Dick Hauser, the third base coach, just had his word with Fred Stanley.

833
01:12:07,020 --> 01:12:13,020
Randolph had 37 stolen bases in the regular season.

834
01:12:13,020 --> 01:12:18,020
In the bunch toward first, it's foul, strike two, three and two.

835
01:12:18,020 --> 01:12:22,020
Stanley tried to push one down the first base line.

836
01:12:22,020 --> 01:12:27,020
Randolph was holding wide at first.

837
01:12:27,020 --> 01:12:29,020
So now a three and two count.

838
01:12:29,020 --> 01:12:32,020
We'll watch Randolph on this one with one out.

839
01:12:32,020 --> 01:12:39,020
Both teams now playing it close, tight, trying for inside baseball, getting a run.

840
01:12:39,020 --> 01:12:43,020
So one run ball game now, and the Yankees can play it differently.

841
01:12:43,020 --> 01:12:47,020
They needed the home runs from Shambler, first of all.

842
01:12:47,020 --> 01:12:49,020
Go to first.

843
01:12:49,020 --> 01:12:51,020
Randolph was dancing around out there at first.

844
01:12:51,020 --> 01:12:54,020
I don't believe at that particular time he had a notion of going.

845
01:12:54,020 --> 01:12:58,020
But he drew the throw over there.

846
01:12:58,020 --> 01:13:02,020
Three and two to Stanley.

847
01:13:02,020 --> 01:13:04,020
In field at double play depth around second.

848
01:13:04,020 --> 01:13:07,020
Hit, runner goes, fouled off.

849
01:13:07,020 --> 01:13:10,020
Randolph was on his way, but will have to come back.

850
01:13:10,020 --> 01:13:13,020
Three and two.

851
01:13:13,020 --> 01:13:16,020
And that moon, which is a waning moon, not a waxing moon,

852
01:13:16,020 --> 01:13:21,020
but a moon we saw with a left field fence in Kansas City over the right field fence, rather,

853
01:13:21,020 --> 01:13:28,020
is coming up over the left field fence here at Yankee Stadium.

854
01:13:28,020 --> 01:13:31,020
Over the river and over the drive.

855
01:13:31,020 --> 01:13:32,020
Three and two.

856
01:13:32,020 --> 01:13:35,020
Here goes Randolph, ground ball right side.

857
01:13:35,020 --> 01:13:38,020
Mayberry plays it alone, has to go to first, steps on the bag,

858
01:13:38,020 --> 01:13:44,020
and Randolph moves into scoring position.

859
01:13:44,020 --> 01:13:47,020
Stanley did his job well as far as hitting behind the runner,

860
01:13:47,020 --> 01:13:52,020
but big John Mayberry was right there to field it and prevented him from going into right field,

861
01:13:52,020 --> 01:13:54,020
which would put Randolph at third.

862
01:13:54,020 --> 01:13:59,020
So Randolph holds up at second base, and he is in scoring position with two outs.

863
01:13:59,020 --> 01:14:05,020
Then I was wandering over to the press box, and most of the people over there seemed to think the argument by Billy Martin

864
01:14:05,020 --> 01:14:10,020
might have been because the project threw his helmet when he got up and started the argument.

865
01:14:10,020 --> 01:14:13,020
Maybe Billy wanted to put out the game.

866
01:14:13,020 --> 01:14:17,020
Billy will press every advantage in a ball game.

867
01:14:17,020 --> 01:14:21,020
Pitches outside to Mickey Rivers, ball one.

868
01:14:21,020 --> 01:14:25,020
Rivers is one for two, had an infield hit, was short in the first inning,

869
01:14:25,020 --> 01:14:32,020
and thrown out trying to steal on a double play as it turned out when White struck out into a double play.

870
01:14:32,020 --> 01:14:35,020
Last time up, Mickey Mickey fouled out the third.

871
01:14:35,020 --> 01:14:40,020
The 1-0 pitch to him by Hassler, ground ball right side, taken by Frank White.

872
01:14:40,020 --> 01:14:43,020
Fires to Mayberry, that's all.

873
01:14:43,020 --> 01:14:47,020
Rivers grounds out second to first to end the fifth for New York.

874
01:14:47,020 --> 01:14:51,020
No runs, no hits, they leave one and threw five full innings.

875
01:14:51,020 --> 01:14:54,020
It's the Royal Three of the Yankees, too.

876
01:14:54,020 --> 01:14:58,020
Ever since Budweiser was first moved back in 1876,

877
01:14:58,020 --> 01:15:03,020
The Budweiser people have talked with pride about the careful way they blew the King of Beers

878
01:15:03,020 --> 01:15:06,020
and that great Budweiser tape.

879
01:15:06,020 --> 01:15:10,020
This is how we were saying it ten years ago.

880
01:15:10,020 --> 01:15:14,020
No matter how you say it or sing it, it all adds up to a taste,

881
01:15:14,020 --> 01:15:18,020
slowness and drinkability, and a taste for the taste.

882
01:15:18,020 --> 01:15:21,020
It's the Budweiser people.

883
01:15:21,020 --> 01:15:24,020
Budweiser people.

884
01:15:24,020 --> 01:15:27,020
Budweiser people.

885
01:15:27,020 --> 01:15:30,020
Budweiser people.

886
01:15:30,020 --> 01:15:33,020
Budweiser people.

887
01:15:33,020 --> 01:15:36,020
Budweiser people.

888
01:15:36,020 --> 01:15:40,020
It's the King of Beers. It all adds up to a taste, slowness and drinkability

889
01:15:40,020 --> 01:15:45,020
that made Budweiser the King of Beers for a hundred years.

890
01:15:45,020 --> 01:15:49,020
San Heidlebush, Headquarters, St. Louis, Missouri.

891
01:15:54,020 --> 01:15:58,020
Fans be a World Series expert by knowing the history and events

892
01:15:58,020 --> 01:16:01,020
that make it America's top sports attraction.

893
01:16:01,020 --> 01:16:05,020
It's all inside the official 1976 World Series program,

894
01:16:05,020 --> 01:16:07,020

Post Office Box 666, San Francisco, California, 94101.

899
01:16:25,020 --> 01:16:32,020
That's World Series program, PO Box 666, San Francisco, 94101.

900
01:16:32,020 --> 01:16:36,020
The proceeding has been brought to you on behalf of Major League Baseball.

901
01:16:39,020 --> 01:16:44,020
The Royals coming up from the top of the sixth inning, leading the Yankees 3-2.

902
01:16:44,020 --> 01:16:48,020
They got their three runs right off the bat in the first inning off Doc Ellis.

903
01:16:48,020 --> 01:16:55,020
On a walk, a stolen base, a single, another single, a pass ball, a sacrifice fly, and a double.

904
01:16:55,020 --> 01:17:00,020
The Yankees came back later on in the fourth inning on a two-run homer by Chris Tamblitt,

905
01:17:00,020 --> 01:17:02,020
a pistol run of the playoff series.

906
01:17:05,020 --> 01:17:09,020
The National League Championship Series is all over.

907
01:17:09,020 --> 01:17:12,020
For the second straight year, the Reds sweep their opposition.

908
01:17:12,020 --> 01:17:15,020
They did it to Pittsburgh last year, they did it to Philadelphia this year.

909
01:17:15,020 --> 01:17:20,020
Today going up with three runs in the ninth inning to win 7-6.

910
01:17:20,020 --> 01:17:24,020
As Ernie said, our congratulations to Sparky Anderson and his Cincinnati Reds.

911
01:17:24,020 --> 01:17:32,020
Check swing by Al Cowans as they go into the top of the sixth, it's fouled off, let us strike one.

912
01:17:34,020 --> 01:17:40,020
Al FitzMorris, a right-hander, is throwing now in the bullpen for Kansas City.

913
01:17:40,020 --> 01:17:43,020
These fellows just haven't seen in ballgames yet.

914
01:17:43,020 --> 01:17:49,020
Short series and the starters have gone along except for Leonard. There's a foul tipped.

915
01:17:49,020 --> 01:17:57,020
Stepping into the Cowans, now struck out in the first and singled in the third.

916
01:17:57,020 --> 01:18:02,020
All the series so far, three for ten.

917
01:18:05,020 --> 01:18:08,020
Doc Ellers, settling nicely since the first inning.

918
01:18:08,020 --> 01:18:16,020
Cowans grounds one to the left side, stabbed by Nettles going to his left, falls down, gets up and throws him out.

919
01:18:16,020 --> 01:18:19,020
Nice play by Greg Nettles.

920
01:18:23,020 --> 01:18:32,020
He used to come hard with the brush of good hit no field, but he has fielded his position very well this year.

921
01:18:32,020 --> 01:18:40,020
He made a fine play that time, going far to his left, knocking the ball down, loving it rather, and then falling to his knees and writing himself to make the play.

922
01:18:40,020 --> 01:18:45,020
He's seen some good fielding plays in the infield by both sides and it's gained a nice.

923
01:18:45,020 --> 01:18:56,020
George Breda, singled home a run in the first, pitches down low to him, ball one, and he grounded into a double play on a hit and run in the third.

924
01:18:56,020 --> 01:18:59,020
Brett, five for nine on the series.

925
01:18:59,020 --> 01:19:05,020
There's a drive in the right field, a hit, a solid line drive, and he's two for three in this game.

926
01:19:05,020 --> 01:19:11,020
Now, six for ten. He continues to wail away at Yankee pitchers.

927
01:19:11,020 --> 01:19:16,020
Hitting them about as effectively as Philadelphia's Jay Johnstone did against Cincinnati.

928
01:19:16,020 --> 01:19:23,020
He went seven for nine against Reds pitching in their series, National League, but it didn't do any good at all.

929
01:19:23,020 --> 01:19:28,020
Brett has six hits in the series and so does Sambler for the Yankees.

930
01:19:28,020 --> 01:19:31,020
A lead in hit production.

931
01:19:31,020 --> 01:19:35,020
John Mayberry is one for two. He's singled and grounded out.

932
01:19:35,020 --> 01:19:40,020
By Ellis. Ground ball to first.

933
01:19:40,020 --> 01:19:46,020
Sambler steps on the bag, throws the first, a run down, back to his first base, tagged by Randolph.

934
01:19:46,020 --> 01:19:50,020
Three to six to four.

935
01:19:50,020 --> 01:19:59,020
Three to six to three to four is the way the run down went, and it turns out to be the double play because Sambler took off the fourth.

936
01:19:59,020 --> 01:20:06,020
And it had to go three to six to four with Willie Randolph making the play to put him out. So it's a double play ending the inning.

937
01:20:06,020 --> 01:20:09,020
No runs, one hit, and nobody left.

938
01:20:09,020 --> 01:20:12,020
And at the middle of the sixth inning, the score remains.

939
01:20:12,020 --> 01:20:15,020
Kansas City three, New York two.

940
01:20:15,020 --> 01:20:35,020
Don't know why you find someone you know for two. That's someone you can't talk to. Don't know why you find someone who cares about you. Someone you can't talk to.

941
01:20:35,020 --> 01:20:50,020
For life and health insurance, at which your individual needs first, talk to your life underwriter. In a trice, personal service, and that special expertise in making the future secure. Your life underwriter. Only a phone call away.

942
01:20:50,020 --> 01:21:05,020
We all need someone to talk to. Someone who will argue. Don't make those people do. Your life underwriter.

943
01:21:05,020 --> 01:21:24,020
There are many, many celebrities here tonight. Big people. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.

944
01:21:24,020 --> 01:21:28,020
Lowell Thomas is here to watch the series.

945
01:21:28,020 --> 01:21:37,020
This game and my man, Frank Sinatra. He's here tooThe chairman.

946
01:21:37,020 --> 01:21:45,020
And they're seeing quite a ballgame as the Royals lead the Yankees three to two with the Yankees coming to bat in inning number six.

947
01:21:45,020 --> 01:22:00,020
A game that is very important to both clubs. I would think especially so to the Kansas City Royals because they know that tomorrow afternoon, win or lose tonight, they are going to face Catfish Center again.

948
01:22:00,020 --> 01:22:19,020
Roy White has struck out into a double play and grounded the short. Freddie Potek has made some outstanding plays in short. Meadow just made one a third. A good run down on the double play ball that just took the Royals out of the inning.

949
01:22:19,020 --> 01:22:22,020
And they're playing it on God's grass here.

950
01:22:22,020 --> 01:22:30,020
They do like is outside and high ball one.

951
01:22:30,020 --> 01:22:34,020
On the third.

952
01:22:34,020 --> 01:22:38,020
Teddy Teddy ball player for the Yankees through the years.

953
01:22:38,020 --> 01:22:53,020
Take that outside ball too.

954
01:22:53,020 --> 01:22:57,020
Playing him about straight away with the center fielder out.

955
01:22:57,020 --> 01:23:10,020
Left center.

956
01:23:10,020 --> 01:23:14,020
We mentioned before during this period a better left handed hitter than right.

957
01:23:14,020 --> 01:23:24,020
But one of his big hits in this set was the opening day double the game for the Yankees off Larry Gura.

958
01:23:24,020 --> 01:23:27,020
The ball low.

959
01:23:27,020 --> 01:23:30,020
There's a careful at all by Maloney.

960
01:23:30,020 --> 01:23:34,020
It's three and one now to fight.

961
01:23:34,020 --> 01:23:39,020
Various and sundry people have been up in the Royals bullpen mostly just get them work.

962
01:23:39,020 --> 01:23:43,020
Just a person like that.

963
01:23:43,020 --> 01:23:55,020
The left field line over for it.

964
01:23:55,020 --> 01:24:10,020
This is a CDS radio network.

965
01:24:10,020 --> 01:24:19,020
The Yankees stadium with the Kansas City Royals leading the New York Yankees 3 to 2 the Yankees batting in the sixth inning.

966
01:24:19,020 --> 01:24:23,020
White Munson and Pennella up against Andy Hasler.

967
01:24:23,020 --> 01:24:25,020
Hasler has given up only three hits.

968
01:24:25,020 --> 01:24:28,020
So one of them that big blast by family.

969
01:24:28,020 --> 01:24:31,020
The homer with Pennella aboard.

970
01:24:31,020 --> 01:24:33,020
All came with two out.

971
01:24:33,020 --> 01:24:42,020
The White ball for right leads with a walk in the sixth.

972
01:24:42,020 --> 01:24:47,020
Second walk on Hasler tying run at first and a big man coming up.

973
01:24:47,020 --> 01:24:49,020
Herman Munson.

974
01:24:49,020 --> 01:24:52,020
Munson has gone three for twelve in a series.

975
01:24:52,020 --> 01:25:00,020
Tonight he is lined up the right field and grounded the short.

976
01:25:00,020 --> 01:25:07,020
Now Patek and White confer around second base as to the matter of coverage in the event of a ground ball.

977
01:25:07,020 --> 01:25:15,020
Or an attempted move toward second by Roy White.

978
01:25:15,020 --> 01:25:18,020
Munson getting set.

979
01:25:18,020 --> 01:25:22,020
Now Tommy Hall and Marty Patton get up again to throw in the bullpen for the Royals.

980
01:25:22,020 --> 01:25:25,020
Left and right handed.

981
01:25:25,020 --> 01:25:29,020
Munson has gone through with the Blutens at home plate and here's the pitch.

982
01:25:29,020 --> 01:25:31,020
Five on the right field is going to be trouble.

983
01:25:31,020 --> 01:25:34,020
It's going to be up against the wall on one hop.

984
01:25:34,020 --> 01:25:37,020
White is coming around and being held at third.

985
01:25:37,020 --> 01:25:53,020
Double for Munson. Two on, nobody out.

986
01:25:53,020 --> 01:26:02,020
Herman Munson has gone to the opposite field with a long drive that took one hop on the dirt out there and banged against the wall.

987
01:26:02,020 --> 01:26:14,020
Dick Hauser, the third base coach with nobody out playing it very safely, held the runner, Roy White, not wanting to run into an out at home plate and spoil a potentially big inning.

988
01:26:14,020 --> 01:26:19,020
The runners are at second and third and Whitey Herzog is coming out.

989
01:26:19,020 --> 01:26:23,020
He is not sending Galen Cisco this time, his pitching coach.

990
01:26:23,020 --> 01:26:25,020
He's looking out for the bullpen.

991
01:26:25,020 --> 01:26:31,020
Hall and Patton have just gotten up to throw and Whitey would like to buy some time if indeed he doesn't make the move.

992
01:26:31,020 --> 01:26:34,020
He's going to call to the bullpen for the right hander.

993
01:26:34,020 --> 01:26:42,020
Marty Patton, the bulldog right hander, is going to come into this ball game right now with Lou Pennella, the designated hitter, scheduled up.

994
01:26:42,020 --> 01:26:52,020
Now we'll see if Billy Martin changes around to his left-handed hitters, something he did not do with his right-handed hitters in Kansas City.

995
01:26:52,020 --> 01:27:09,020
So Andy Hassler leaves the ball game. He went strong really by the names but gave up a walk and a double here and so goes five close innings, going to two men, facing two men here in the sixth inning.

996
01:27:09,020 --> 01:27:16,020
He has given up four hits and two runs, responsible for a couple of runners, walked through and struck out two.

997
01:27:16,020 --> 01:27:23,020
New picture coming on and right now for a brief news update, we return you to CBS News in New York.

998
01:27:23,020 --> 01:27:27,020
I'm Rita Sands reporting on the CBS Radio Network.

999
01:27:27,020 --> 01:27:31,020
Auto workers have ratified a proposed settlement with a Ford Motor Company.

1000
01:27:31,020 --> 01:27:35,020
Production at some plants could resume as early as tomorrow.

1001
01:27:35,020 --> 01:27:48,020
Self-officials in at least a dozen states are either holding up their swine flu inoculation programs or altering them because of the deaths of three elderly people in Pennsylvania who died just hours after taking the vaccine.

1002
01:27:48,020 --> 01:27:54,020
Self-officials say there is no evidence that the vaccine contributed to the deaths. Investigations are underway.

1003
01:27:54,020 --> 01:28:07,020
President Ford told ethnic leaders in Washington today he did make a mistake characterizing Eastern Europe as free of Soviet domination. A resident sent arrested today campaigning in New York. Jimmy Carter rested in Georgia.

1004
01:28:07,020 --> 01:28:14,020
China has confirmed the appointment of Lao Tse-Tung as the new chairman of China's Communist Party, including the late Mao Tse-Tung.

1005
01:28:14,020 --> 01:28:23,020
Japanese news correspondents today report the arrest of more than 30 Chinese leaders, including Mao Tse-Tung's widow. There has been no official confirmation.

1006
01:28:23,020 --> 01:28:26,020
I'm Linda Sahan, PBS News New York.

1007
01:28:26,020 --> 01:28:35,020
Back at Yankee Stadium, this is Ned Martin with Ernie HarwellThe Yankees have a threat going here in the sixth inning. Kansas City leads by a score of 3-2.

1008
01:28:35,020 --> 01:28:39,020
The Yankees have Roy White at third and Thurman Munson at second with nobody out.

1009
01:28:39,020 --> 01:28:43,020
Carlos May is going to back so Billy Martin is making his move.

1010
01:28:43,020 --> 01:28:47,020
He will back for Panella and Marty Patson is taking his warm-up, Ernie.

1011
01:28:47,020 --> 01:29:00,020
Well, Marty, the 33-year-old veteran, probably the talkie right-hand pitcher, is the regular season record. He had a earned run average of 2.49.

1012
01:29:00,020 --> 01:29:11,020
He won eight games and lost 14, and he had 15 starts. So he has been used both as a reliever and a dirty pitcher.

1013
01:29:11,020 --> 01:29:18,020
He's taking his tune-up crosses right now. Billy Martin, meanwhile, has come out to speak with his third base coach, Dick Houser.

1014
01:29:18,020 --> 01:29:28,020
The Yankees with a big threat, they go by a run, 3-2. They've got a man at second, they have a man at third, and there's nobody out.

1015
01:29:28,020 --> 01:29:38,020
And Carlos May has been inserted now as a pitch batter for Luke Panella. So Martin gets the left-hand batter up against the right-hander Marty Patson.

1016
01:29:38,020 --> 01:29:46,020
And let's go back to Ned Martin. Okay, a big spot right here for Carlos May, who's become the designated hitter and locked into that spot.

1017
01:29:46,020 --> 01:29:56,020
And they're going to put him on. They're not going to mess with him. They will walk in intentionally below the bases and set up a fourth and or double play situation.

1018
01:29:56,020 --> 01:30:02,020
Marty Herzog will not pick to May a tough left-handed hitter in a spot like this.

1019
01:30:02,020 --> 01:30:10,020
Carlos has been in this series now. He came into it with two hits and five times at bat.

1020
01:30:10,020 --> 01:30:15,020
And they are putting him on, so the intentional walk will be given right away.

1021
01:30:15,020 --> 01:30:26,020
Some people say, why bring in a pitcher to do that? One reason is that it gives him a little bit more time on the mound in the game situation, getting himself into a rhythm there.

1022
01:30:26,020 --> 01:30:35,020
Mark Lattell has joined Tom Hall in the bullpen now for the Royals. And now, let's see, here comes Whitey again.

1023
01:30:35,020 --> 01:30:42,020
Herzog is moving with Chris Samworth up there, and they won't tell me Hall right this moment.

1024
01:30:42,020 --> 01:30:53,020
Marty Patson has been the long and short-release man, a spot starter, and actually during September, when the Royals were really having their troubles, he was about their most effective pitcher.

1025
01:30:53,020 --> 01:31:04,020
But his job tonight is done, and he will lead in favor of Tom Hall, a left-hander who has been in postseason play and World Series before.

1026
01:31:04,020 --> 01:31:17,020
So, Carlos May, the now designated hitter, gets the intentional walk. They've loaded the bases, and Marty Patson has a rather peculiar tour of duty here this night.

1027
01:31:17,020 --> 01:31:24,020
Comes in with his four intentional pitches outside the strike zone and then goes to the dugout.

1028
01:31:24,020 --> 01:31:34,020
So, actually, Patson will not be a very part of an inning, although, should May score, his run would be charged to Patson.

1029
01:31:34,020 --> 01:31:43,020
So now, Tommy Hall is coming in, left-hander, he will pitch when he gets ready to Chris Samworth and Greg Middell.

1030
01:31:43,020 --> 01:31:50,020
Tom Hall has won one and lost one so far in the regular season, and he made 31 appearances.

1031
01:31:50,020 --> 01:31:57,020
They were all in relief, and he had one save. He's the former Minnesota twin and Cincinnati Reds pitcher.

1032
01:31:57,020 --> 01:32:05,020
Taking over now for Marty Patson, who came in and gave up the intentional walk and then leaves the contest.

1033
01:32:05,020 --> 01:32:15,020
You're tuned to your CBS Radio Network station for game number three in the American League playoffs. That means you're tuned to the only radio spot for the World Series.

1034
01:32:15,020 --> 01:32:24,020
Starting Saturday, October the 16th, CBS Radio Sports brings you exclusive radio play-by-play coverage.

1035
01:32:24,020 --> 01:32:31,020
Follow the series on radio right here.

1036
01:32:31,020 --> 01:32:43,020
If ever anybody had a job to do, it's this thin left-hander, Tom Hall, now. He's coming into a bases-loaded, no-out situation.

1037
01:32:43,020 --> 01:32:52,020
And some of the folks here in New York, Bowingson, he was a one-time Mets pitcher in addition to the other clubs that we mentioned.

1038
01:32:52,020 --> 01:32:58,020
And that little con-pav at the mound, and my penis out there to talk to Hall, and he'll take you soon enough to like him.

1039
01:32:58,020 --> 01:33:05,020
This afternoon, the Cincinnati Reds completed a three-game suite of the National League Championship series,

1040
01:33:05,020 --> 01:33:10,020
going three runs in the ninth inning, the beat the Fulbright's to the league 76.

1041
01:33:10,020 --> 01:33:16,020
Cincinnati had won the two earlier games by scores of 6-3 and 6-2.

1042
01:33:16,020 --> 01:33:26,020
So now they'll wait to see who wins the playoffs here in the American League, and then the World Series will get underway as we mentioned on Saturday afternoon in Cincinnati.

1043
01:33:26,020 --> 01:33:30,020
Bases loaded, it'll happen this way, White, he'll walk to opening inning.

1044
01:33:30,020 --> 01:33:35,020
And Munson's life will double down the right field line. It looks for a moment as if White might be able to score.

1045
01:33:35,020 --> 01:33:39,020
Those kids played the ball pretty well off the wall, and Hell White at third base.

1046
01:33:39,020 --> 01:33:43,020
Munson cruising easily into second for the second double of the series.

1047
01:33:43,020 --> 01:33:50,020
And then May was inserted as a pinch hitter for the designated batter, the right-hand hitting Lucenella.

1048
01:33:50,020 --> 01:33:52,020
May, the left-hand batter, was lost.

1049
01:33:52,020 --> 01:33:57,020
And now that brings up the man who has produced the two Yankee runs, Chris Kamlitz.

1050
01:33:57,020 --> 01:34:01,020
With the bases loaded, nobody out and his net again.

1051
01:34:01,020 --> 01:34:05,020
Tommy Hall worked with the Mets last year, won four and lost three.

1052
01:34:05,020 --> 01:34:09,020
He has had this championship playoff experience though.

1053
01:34:09,020 --> 01:34:20,020
He was with the Minnesota Twins in the 69 playoff, with the Minnesota Twins in 70 also, where he got in a couple of ball games, and with Cincinnati in 72 and 73.

1054
01:34:20,020 --> 01:34:25,020
Now he faces the rough tough Chris Kamlitz with the bases loaded and nobody out.

1055
01:34:25,020 --> 01:34:30,020
Yankee's frail by a run.

1056
01:34:30,020 --> 01:34:36,020
Here it is. Kamlitz takes the breaking ball for a strike.

1057
01:34:36,020 --> 01:34:45,020
What they try to do is jam Chris Kamlitz with hard stuff up and in, and then try to back him off the plate a little bit, and then throw him breaking the stuff away,

1058
01:34:45,020 --> 01:34:55,020
which is a normal kind of playoff, but you try to get him more back in motion, to really jam him hard, or curve him a lot.

1059
01:34:55,020 --> 01:35:02,020
There's a foul ball out of play down the third base line, and now quickly Tommy Hall is ahead of Kamlitz, 0-2.

1060
01:35:02,020 --> 01:35:09,020
Another left-handed hitter, Greg Nettles, is on deck.

1061
01:35:09,020 --> 01:35:11,020
Big crowd eating this one up right now.

1062
01:35:11,020 --> 01:35:19,020
The Yankees have come from a 3-0 deficit to trail 3-2 and have all those people on base.

1063
01:35:19,020 --> 01:35:29,020
Paul the flim left-hander from North Carolina, whines and throws, waste the fastball outside.

1064
01:35:29,020 --> 01:35:35,020
When he first came up into the major, he could throw very hard, using whip-like arms.

1065
01:35:35,020 --> 01:35:40,020
He's been primarily a relief pitcher in his career.

1066
01:35:40,020 --> 01:35:44,020
One ball, two strikes.

1067
01:35:44,020 --> 01:35:48,020
Infield pokes behind him, they're a double play depth around second base.

1068
01:35:48,020 --> 01:35:51,020
One-two pitch, bouncing ball to second, this will score a run.

1069
01:35:51,020 --> 01:35:58,020
Let's throw to second base, that's all it can get, one out, and it's tied up 3-3.

1070
01:35:58,020 --> 01:36:04,020
White scores, Kamlitz gets his third RBI.

1071
01:36:04,020 --> 01:36:10,020
In front of his second base, Carlos May was fourth, the only player they had, White to Potec, 4-6.

1072
01:36:10,020 --> 01:36:14,020
The ball was not hit sharply enough to turn the double play.

1073
01:36:14,020 --> 01:36:17,020
So Roy White scores a tying run.

1074
01:36:17,020 --> 01:36:22,020
Munson moves in the third base, save at first on a fielder's choice, is Kamlitz.

1075
01:36:22,020 --> 01:36:27,020
There is one out now with runners at the corners and Greg Nettles up.

1076
01:36:27,020 --> 01:36:39,020
Duk Martinez, motioning to John Mayberry, about playing with Nettles there, a pull hitter, an uppercut hitter.

1077
01:36:39,020 --> 01:36:44,020
Nettles has walked and struck out.

1078
01:36:44,020 --> 01:36:49,020
Andy Hassler has gone, that run is charged to him, the one that just scored.

1079
01:36:49,020 --> 01:36:55,020
He's also responsible for Munson at third.

1080
01:36:55,020 --> 01:36:58,020
The other Royals really want to turn the double play.

1081
01:36:58,020 --> 01:37:16,020
Ball works for Nettles, it's high and outside, ball one.

1082
01:37:16,020 --> 01:37:27,020
Ben Gori throwing in the bullpen, Lattell has been out there with him, butt swinging, and the count evens up one and one to Nettles.

1083
01:37:27,020 --> 01:37:38,020
Left-hander Steve Menjoy is the primary left-hander in the bullpen for Whitey Herzog, and the hard-throwing youngster Mark Lattell.

1084
01:37:38,020 --> 01:37:44,020
One and one to Nettles.

1085
01:37:44,020 --> 01:37:47,020
Munson off first, Munson off third, sweet three.

1086
01:37:47,020 --> 01:37:48,020
It is.

1087
01:37:48,020 --> 01:37:53,020
Line drive to center field, and it is in there for a base hit.

1088
01:37:53,020 --> 01:38:10,020
Here comes Munson with a go-ahead run, runners at first and second on the Yankees lead, 4-3.

1089
01:38:10,020 --> 01:38:15,020
Mike Nettles slamming one that hit right in front of center fielder Al Collins.

1090
01:38:15,020 --> 01:38:22,020
For a moment it appeared that Collins would catch the ball, but he held up, and the ball dropped right in front of him for a clean single.

1091
01:38:22,020 --> 01:38:27,020
Goering Munson and sending Shambliss to second, and now Whitey Herzog is out again.

1092
01:38:27,020 --> 01:38:31,020
He wants the other left-hander, Menjoy, right now.

1093
01:38:31,020 --> 01:38:37,020
He does not want the right-hander to face Elliott Manick, he wants Menjoy.

1094
01:38:37,020 --> 01:38:48,020
So Tommy Hall faces two batters in his fifth, gets one of them out, a run of score that is not charged to him.

1095
01:38:48,020 --> 01:38:51,020
Pitches to two batters and gives up one hit.

1096
01:38:51,020 --> 01:38:55,020
He is responsible for a base runner.

1097
01:38:55,020 --> 01:39:03,020
The two runs that have scored are charged to Andy Hasler, who is complete record now, 5-6, gave up four hits and four runs.

1098
01:39:03,020 --> 01:39:12,020
The Yankees have gone ahead for the first time in this ball game and are still fussing around with runners at first and second and only a couple of one outs.

1099
01:39:12,020 --> 01:39:15,020
And Manick, Randolph, and Stanley scheduled up.

1100
01:39:15,020 --> 01:39:25,020
Though it's still not over, as Whitey Herzog has seen a free run lead put it away, and the Yankees playing like the Yankees they have all year long are in command at this point.

1101
01:39:25,020 --> 01:39:30,020
It's the sixth inning with the Yankees leading the Royals 4-3.

1102
01:39:30,020 --> 01:39:38,020
I want to remind you that tomorrow on CBS Radio, game number four will be broadcast right here on your CBS station, the Yankees versus the Royals.

1103
01:39:38,020 --> 01:39:46,020
Airtime will be seven minutes past three o'clock, 3.07 Eastern Daylight Time and 2.07 Central.

1104
01:39:46,020 --> 01:39:54,020
That's tomorrow at 3.07 Eastern and 2.07 Central for game four on the CBS Radio Network.

1105
01:39:54,020 --> 01:40:04,020
And also, don't forget that starting next Saturday, October 16th, you'll hear the World Series action exclusive radio play-by-play right here on this PBS Radio Network station.

1106
01:40:04,020 --> 01:40:18,020
So, Hansler has gone, Patsy has gone, Hall has gone, and Steve Mingare is on for his second appearance in the playoffs series to face Elliot Manick when he does come up.

1107
01:40:18,020 --> 01:40:27,020
Mingare during the regular season then had a 5-5 record. All his appearances were in relief. He was in the 55 games and he came up with 10 saves.

1108
01:40:18,020 --> 01:40:34,020
After which Monson's single, a Sam

1109
01:40:27,020 --> 01:40:35,020
His only appearance in this series, the one you mentioned, came in the second game when he released Swidow in the ninth inning.

1110
01:40:48,020 --> 01:41:04,020
He got the final batter made on a strikeout and picked up a save in the Kansas City victory in game number two of the series, a victory for the Royals that evened it at that point one and one.

1111
01:41:04,020 --> 01:41:12,020
The Royals were out in front early in this game. They got three in the opening inningThe Yankees came back with two on a home run by Shambler from the fourth.

1112
01:41:12,020 --> 01:41:21,020
And they picked up another pair here in the sixth inning and they are still alive with one out and two men on.

1113
01:41:21,020 --> 01:41:24,020
And Steve Mingare takes over.

1114
01:41:24,020 --> 01:41:35,020
We've seen in this series a show that can come back from a definiteThe Yankees, of course, were out in front all the way during the first game.

1115
01:41:35,020 --> 01:41:46,020
The Royals came back to win it in the second, although the Yankees had come back to go ahead. And the Royals had a strong three nothing lead with Hasler looking good, but that's all gone.

1116
01:41:46,020 --> 01:41:49,020
Elliott Maddox has struck out and grounded a short.

1117
01:41:49,020 --> 01:41:54,020
It's hit by Mingare, a ball outside.

1118
01:41:54,020 --> 01:42:01,020
Mingare, a smaller swept bender, with good breaking stuff, keeps the ball down.

1119
01:42:01,020 --> 01:42:05,020
And now the slider and the sinker.

1120
01:42:05,020 --> 01:42:10,020
Check on left-handed hitters.

1121
01:42:10,020 --> 01:42:13,020
Right now, picking the right-handed batter, Elliott Maddox.

1122
01:42:13,020 --> 01:42:20,020
This ball, the sinker ball, will tail away from the right-hander. There's one outside, ball two.

1123
01:42:20,020 --> 01:42:25,020
So it's two and nothing to Maddox.

1124
01:42:25,020 --> 01:42:32,020
And the winning drawing here with three, four pitchers having worked here in this inning.

1125
01:42:32,020 --> 01:42:40,020
Two only, five batters. Now six. Six batters, four pitchers.

1126
01:42:40,020 --> 01:42:44,020
Talk about the wheels spinning in the dugout.

1127
01:42:44,020 --> 01:42:48,020
Here's a set by Mingare, and set one is called.

1128
01:42:48,020 --> 01:42:51,020
It comes in across that inside corner.

1129
01:42:51,020 --> 01:42:54,020
It's two and one to Maddox.

1130
01:42:54,020 --> 01:42:59,020
One thing among several that went wrong with the Philadelphia Phillies and their national display-off losses

1131
01:42:59,020 --> 01:43:04,020
was a failure of the bullpen to respond, a bullpen that had worked so hard all year.

1132
01:43:04,020 --> 01:43:12,020
See how Kansas City does now. Curve is outside, ball three.

1133
01:43:12,020 --> 01:43:24,020
Three balls, one strike for Maddox.

1134
01:43:24,020 --> 01:43:31,020
At second base, Chris Gambler. At first, Greg Nettles.

1135
01:43:31,020 --> 01:43:38,020
Three-one-six, rides in and has popped up down the right field line, curving foul, and is going to be out of play.

1136
01:43:38,020 --> 01:43:42,020
Long strikes in the towers, three and two.

1137
01:43:42,020 --> 01:43:49,020
Full through Maddox with Randolph on deck.

1138
01:43:49,020 --> 01:43:54,020
Right-lead the inning with a walk, went to third on Munson's off-field double.

1139
01:43:54,020 --> 01:43:57,020
That exited Andy Hasler. Marty Patliss brought in the pinch.

1140
01:43:57,020 --> 01:44:04,020
Six to Carlos May, who was batting for Panella in the D.H. spot, walked in intensely, then left the game.

1141
01:44:04,020 --> 01:44:07,020
Tommy Hall works with Sam Wood, got a field of choice and a run scored.

1142
01:44:07,020 --> 01:44:12,020
He got the single and Nettles, and now it is Mingori, three and two, to Maddox.

1143
01:44:12,020 --> 01:44:14,020
Here it comes.

1144
01:44:14,020 --> 01:44:17,020
Fly ball in the right center, in the gap, they hit.

1145
01:44:17,020 --> 01:44:21,020
Coming out there by Callan. A run will scoreThe throw comes in to White.

1146
01:44:21,020 --> 01:44:35,020
Runners at second and third is five-three, New York.

1147
01:44:35,020 --> 01:44:39,020
A double into the right center field alley by Elliott Maddox.

1148
01:44:39,020 --> 01:44:46,020
Scoring, Sam Wood, and sending Nettles to third, and the Yankees are running wild here.

1149
01:44:46,020 --> 01:44:49,020
And again, from the dugout, comes manager Whitey Herzog.

1150
01:44:49,020 --> 01:44:53,020
He is down to about his last man out there, except for Doug Bird.

1151
01:44:53,020 --> 01:44:57,020
He's going to bring Mark Lattell in while this game is still close.

1152
01:44:57,020 --> 01:45:00,020
The bullpen has not worked for him.

1153
01:45:00,020 --> 01:45:10,020
The bullpen, which had been effective throughout the year with fellows like Patton, Hall, Mingori, Lattell, so far has fallen down tonight.

1154
01:45:10,020 --> 01:45:17,020
So, Mingori, which is no part of an inning, gives up one hit, is responsible for a run.

1155
01:45:17,020 --> 01:45:21,020
The run that's scored by Sam Wood is charged to Marty Patton.

1156
01:45:21,020 --> 01:45:27,020
So, Patton, which is no part of an inning, gave up no hits, one run, one walk.

1157
01:45:27,020 --> 01:45:32,020
And anything that's left now is charged to Hall and Mingori.

1158
01:45:32,020 --> 01:45:38,020
So, Steve Mingori, facing the right-handed batter, gives a bank hit to the right center field.

1159
01:45:38,020 --> 01:45:47,020
And we'll see in the morning, Ernie, or after the game, whether the people who like to second-guess these things and look at it in hindsight will say,

1160
01:45:47,020 --> 01:45:54,020
why did they bring Mingori, a left-hander, in, if they tell Elliott Maddox, the right-hander, unless they fear that maybe a left-handed batter will be installed by Billy Marcus.

1161
01:45:54,020 --> 01:46:05,020
Well, there'll be plenty of time for that, and I'm sure a lot of colors and ladies here will take a panic of the old American pastime to right-the-second-guess.

1162
01:46:05,020 --> 01:46:11,020
Here's the country-lotel, as they're calling, big right-hander coming into play, L-I-T-T-E-Double-L.

1163
01:46:11,020 --> 01:46:24,020
He won eight and lost four in the regular season, and had 60 appearances, and all of those were in relief except one time he started.

1164
01:46:24,020 --> 01:46:31,020
The town had 16 saves through his credit throughout the 1976 season.

1165
01:46:31,020 --> 01:46:35,020
And now they have a little conference coming on for you, Paul.

1166
01:46:35,020 --> 01:46:42,020
And we're getting a practice of big-legged, and I can't tell you that. He picked the one batter that went on in Norwich, and he's on the walk.

1167
01:46:42,020 --> 01:46:50,020
The runs going in, and Hattler, Patton and the thick-finning, all here in the thick-finning.

1168
01:46:50,020 --> 01:46:57,020
Mingori in the thick-finning, and now L-I-T-E-L, they make a hard-throwing right-hander in the thick-finning.

1169
01:46:57,020 --> 01:47:06,020
Not too many left out there now in the royal bullpen, and as far as he heard, the royal manager starts to spin the Yankee tide here.

1170
01:47:06,020 --> 01:47:09,020
He picked up three runs to pick the lead, and he survived the three.

1171
01:47:09,020 --> 01:47:13,020
The total's right now, he's seen the thick-finsThe Yankees, five runs, thick-fins, no errors.

1172
01:47:13,020 --> 01:47:17,020
The Royals had three runs, thick-fins, and no errors.

1173
01:47:17,020 --> 01:47:23,020
Doc Ellis, incidentally, has gone all the way for the Yankees, and he's settled down after a thick-fins first-finning.

1174
01:47:23,020 --> 01:47:28,020
Looks like he might not survive that opening inning when the Royals picked up three runs on three hits.

1175
01:47:28,020 --> 01:47:35,020
Then he's allowed only three singles since then, and he's been hated by two Yankee double plays since that first inning.

1176
01:47:35,020 --> 01:47:40,020
Well, the Yankees riding high now. They've got a two-run lead. Let's go back to the end.

1177
01:47:40,020 --> 01:47:45,020
All right, it'll be Willie Randolph up. Randolph has rounded it short and walked.

1178
01:47:45,020 --> 01:47:49,020
Still only one out. That was on a fourth out.

1179
01:47:49,020 --> 01:47:54,020
Ramblers forcing May at second base, and on that even, a run short.

1180
01:47:54,020 --> 01:48:00,020
Now the Royals will bring their infield in. They have to. They don't want any more runs possible to cross.

1181
01:48:00,020 --> 01:48:06,020
Keep it on a two-run basis, but right now the Yankees are in the seat. They are driving.

1182
01:48:06,020 --> 01:48:12,020
Infield in all the way around. Pottsack two steps off the grass. Everybody right out the edge of the grass.

1183
01:48:12,020 --> 01:48:25,020
Pitch to Randolph. Fastball strikes off. Patel can hum it. He is maybe as fast a right-handed relief pitcher as there is in the American League.

1184
01:48:25,020 --> 01:48:33,020
More than Missouri.

1185
01:48:33,020 --> 01:48:37,020
Here's the studies working from a stretch with runners at second and third.

1186
01:48:37,020 --> 01:48:42,020
Pitching. Inside fastball. Ball one. One ball, one strike.

1187
01:48:42,020 --> 01:48:50,020
Now this is a kind of spot where Billy Martin likes to use the old squeeze once in a while. I'm sure that the Royals will be looking out for it.

1188
01:48:50,020 --> 01:48:56,020
Well, think about it. They really have it somewhat in their favor because they are drawing in.

1189
01:48:56,020 --> 01:49:03,020
To the point they're not beaten. But Martin does a lot of things.

1190
01:49:03,020 --> 01:49:08,020
One ball, one strike. Here's a step by Patel.

1191
01:49:08,020 --> 01:49:14,020
Drops to the belt. There's a squeeze. A sense it fouls.

1192
01:49:14,020 --> 01:49:22,020
Well, they tried itThe infielders were looking for it a little bit because they had Brett charging from third, Mayberry from first.

1193
01:49:22,020 --> 01:49:29,020
They had the pitchers coming straight in, Patel. And they had Freddy Pottsack trailing the play and covering third.

1194
01:49:29,020 --> 01:49:35,020
But it didn't work and now the count is one ball, two strikes. So Randolph didn't get the bunt down.

1195
01:49:35,020 --> 01:49:38,020
And we'll see what the league's like now.

1196
01:49:38,020 --> 01:49:48,020
Mainly the All-American expedient of getting a two-base hit with the two or both runs.

1197
01:49:48,020 --> 01:49:56,020
Al Fitzmarsh gets up the throw and a royal bullpen. Fitzmarsh is out there. So is Doug Byrd.

1198
01:49:56,020 --> 01:50:03,020
Yankees lead 5-3, batting in the sixth inning. It's been a long one. Here it is.

1199
01:50:03,020 --> 01:50:06,020
And they took this foul on a checked swing by Randolph.

1200
01:50:06,020 --> 01:50:10,020
He was in on it and just picked this bat and got away from Martinez.

1201
01:50:10,020 --> 01:50:13,020
Count one ball, two strikes.

1202
01:50:13,020 --> 01:50:20,020
With all of this, there have been just two hits, there's been three hits this inning, a double by Munson, a single by Nettles, a double by Maddox.

1203
01:50:20,020 --> 01:50:27,020
There have been two walks, one intentional.

1204
01:50:27,020 --> 01:50:30,020
Now we're ready again as Latel looks to third.

1205
01:50:30,020 --> 01:50:34,020
So the plate strikes three, swinging a slider.

1206
01:50:34,020 --> 01:50:38,020
Latel has a good hard slider and he used it that time to strike Randolph out.

1207
01:50:38,020 --> 01:50:43,020
So the youngster comes on and fans his first batter and now here is Stanley.

1208
01:50:43,020 --> 01:50:51,020
Fred Stanley is 0-2.

1209
01:50:51,020 --> 01:50:57,020
Stanley pops the shortstop and grounded the first. Martinez is out talking to Latel.

1210
01:50:57,020 --> 01:51:03,020
One thing that you don't do is let down on the number nine hitter. There's a fellow like Stanley, which some clubs have.

1211
01:51:03,020 --> 01:51:08,020
And he hurts it. He is 4-9 at this point in this series.

1212
01:51:08,020 --> 01:51:13,020
That's three hits in one game. They don't play in the bowl.

1213
01:51:13,020 --> 01:51:17,020
Cowens is over toward right center.

1214
01:51:17,020 --> 01:51:22,020
Low outfield is pushed around to right. They get in the left field line.

1215
01:51:22,020 --> 01:51:25,020
But Betts banned the pitch to him.

1216
01:51:25,020 --> 01:51:28,020
Slider away, ball one.

1217
01:51:28,020 --> 01:51:32,020
Jackies lead by two. They've scored three runs in this sixth inning.

1218
01:51:32,020 --> 01:51:35,020
They've got their other two in the fourth. On campus there's two run homers.

1219
01:51:35,020 --> 01:51:39,020
The Royals picked up three on the top of the first inning right off the bat off Doc Ellis.

1220
01:51:39,020 --> 01:51:43,020
But Ellis has stepped it out since.

1221
01:51:43,020 --> 01:51:45,020
Hitter.

1222
01:51:45,020 --> 01:51:50,020
By a fastball you could hear that one pop into the glove of Martinez, but it was out of the strike zone.

1223
01:51:50,020 --> 01:51:58,020
Two balls, no strikes.

1224
01:51:58,020 --> 01:52:06,020
Two on that thinking Stanley. Mickey Rivers on Betts.

1225
01:52:06,020 --> 01:52:09,020
There's the fetch.

1226
01:52:09,020 --> 01:52:14,020
And the pitch. Ball three. Almost hit him.

1227
01:52:14,020 --> 01:52:20,020
One thing that you would think the Mattel would not want to do is walk the number nine hitter

1228
01:52:20,020 --> 01:52:24,020
and bring up Rivers, the left-handed batter who can kill you in a lot of ways.

1229
01:52:24,020 --> 01:52:28,020
Now it would bring up Mickey with the bases loaded.

1230
01:52:28,020 --> 01:52:31,020
If you win one pitch you're doing that.

1231
01:52:31,020 --> 01:52:36,020
Three and nothing to Stanley.

1232
01:52:36,020 --> 01:52:38,020
There it is.

1233
01:52:38,020 --> 01:52:40,020
Betts called, three and one.

1234
01:52:40,020 --> 01:52:45,020
Now Fred Betts with Hauser at third.

1235
01:52:45,020 --> 01:52:48,020
He wants him to take another one.

1236
01:52:48,020 --> 01:52:53,020
Or go for it if it's right around the wheelhouse somewhere.

1237
01:52:53,020 --> 01:52:57,020
One balls, one strike.

1238
01:52:57,020 --> 01:53:00,020
Schambler for third base.

1239
01:53:00,020 --> 01:53:01,020
Or Nettles for third rather.

1240
01:53:01,020 --> 01:53:04,020
And Nettles at second.

1241
01:53:04,020 --> 01:53:06,020
Here is the three-one pitch. That is ball four.

1242
01:53:06,020 --> 01:53:10,020
Bases loaded.

1243
01:53:10,020 --> 01:53:14,020
Mattel walks Stanley.

1244
01:53:14,020 --> 01:53:15,020
He's at first.

1245
01:53:15,020 --> 01:53:17,020
Nettles at third.

1246
01:53:17,020 --> 01:53:22,020
And the ninth man of the inning coming up, Mickey Rivers.

1247
01:53:22,020 --> 01:53:24,020
Rivers has had one hit in three trips.

1248
01:53:24,020 --> 01:53:27,020
An infield single and a third.

1249
01:53:27,020 --> 01:53:31,020
Well the infield moves back now.

1250
01:53:31,020 --> 01:53:34,020
Not even worrying about anybody except Rivers himself.

1251
01:53:34,020 --> 01:53:35,020
They don't move back deep.

1252
01:53:35,020 --> 01:53:40,020
They shorten up a little bit at short and second because of Mickey's speed.

1253
01:53:40,020 --> 01:53:42,020
But there is a play at any base.

1254
01:53:42,020 --> 01:53:45,020
So they don't necessarily have to go for him.

1255
01:53:45,020 --> 01:53:51,020
And he shortens up and takes high and he's trying for a ball.

1256
01:53:51,020 --> 01:53:55,020
Galen Cisco, the pitching coach now is sent out by Whitey Herzog.

1257
01:53:55,020 --> 01:54:01,020
He talks to his pitcher and is trying to calm the youngster down.

1258
01:54:01,020 --> 01:54:07,020
Mattel is just 23 years old.

1259
01:54:07,020 --> 01:54:15,020
And a sort of situation like this, probably is adrenaline is really running.

1260
01:54:15,020 --> 01:54:17,020
That might run the ball out of the strike zone a lot.

1261
01:54:17,020 --> 01:54:21,020
He's showing very hard but missing high, wild high.

1262
01:54:21,020 --> 01:54:28,020
Last year he won one and lost two in brief activity for Kansas City after spending a year in Omaha.

1263
01:54:28,020 --> 01:54:34,020
Cisco and George Brett and Buck Martinez are all out there talking to Mattel.

1264
01:54:34,020 --> 01:54:36,020
And now they leave simply.

1265
01:54:36,020 --> 01:54:48,020
Catch him on the tailgate and runs back toward the dugout.

1266
01:54:48,020 --> 01:54:56,020
It was about as welcome as a bough of electric eels to a pitcher in this situation.

1267
01:54:56,020 --> 01:54:58,020
There it is.

1268
01:54:58,020 --> 01:54:59,020
Buck's called.

1269
01:54:59,020 --> 01:55:03,020
Rivers just kind of floating the bat back and forth in pendulum style.

1270
01:55:03,020 --> 01:55:05,020
He's fishing on that one all the way.

1271
01:55:05,020 --> 01:55:08,020
One ball, one strike.

1272
01:55:08,020 --> 01:55:11,020
Rivers, as we've mentioned, does not often walk.

1273
01:55:11,020 --> 01:55:15,020
He did Sunday once and surprised everybody.

1274
01:55:15,020 --> 01:55:16,020
There's a fish.

1275
01:55:16,020 --> 01:55:18,020
Strike swinging.

1276
01:55:18,020 --> 01:55:22,020
The challenge by a fastball from Mark Littell.

1277
01:55:22,020 --> 01:55:34,020
The doubt is now one and two to Rivers.

1278
01:55:34,020 --> 01:55:38,020
One ball, two strikes.

1279
01:55:38,020 --> 01:55:40,020
Here's the set.

1280
01:55:40,020 --> 01:55:43,020
Fly ball, back of shortstop, back of third.

1281
01:55:43,020 --> 01:55:44,020
Over for Potts Hatchey.

1282
01:55:44,020 --> 01:55:47,020
He's got it in fairground to end the inning.

1283
01:55:47,020 --> 01:55:51,020
So it mercifully ends for the Kansas City Royals in the sixth inning.

1284
01:55:51,020 --> 01:55:56,020
As nine men come to bat for New York, they score three runs on three hits.

1285
01:55:56,020 --> 01:55:59,020
There were no errors and three were left.

1286
01:55:59,020 --> 01:56:04,020
And the score at the end of sixth is Yappie five, Royals three.

1287
01:56:04,020 --> 01:56:09,020
There I was, successful business man, wonderful family, nice home, no crabgrass.

1288
01:56:09,020 --> 01:56:11,020
But I had to work for it all.

1289
01:56:11,020 --> 01:56:15,020
I never actually won anything until I played budget rent-a-card.

1290
01:56:15,020 --> 01:56:17,020
I can't wait to win.

1291
01:56:17,020 --> 01:56:20,020
I can't wait to have a win.

1292
01:56:20,020 --> 01:56:21,020
I won.

1293
01:56:21,020 --> 01:56:22,020
And you can too.

1294
01:56:22,020 --> 01:56:29,020
You can see that he's an FDX writer with five different writers.

1295
01:56:29,020 --> 01:56:32,020
He first writes about when he needs several acres of food, all of which are worth a fortune,

1296
01:56:32,020 --> 01:56:33,020
and he's very iron-on.

1297
01:56:33,020 --> 01:56:36,020
Look, there's no purchase necessary when Rockford fired November 30th.

1298
01:56:36,020 --> 01:56:42,020
So unless it's prohibited in your area, play the I Can't Wait to Win in three states today at participating budget locations.

Be an instant winner at budget rent-a-card.

1306
01:57:01,020 --> 01:57:05,020
Well, let's see now.

1307
01:57:05,020 --> 01:57:07,020
Six in a total agreed like this.

1308
01:57:07,020 --> 01:57:09,020
The Appie's five runs and a six-pitch.

1309
01:57:09,020 --> 01:57:11,020
The Royals three runs and six-pitch.

1310
01:57:11,020 --> 01:57:16,020
Doc Ellis, the beneficiary of all these riches, is now taking his warm-up,

1311
01:57:16,020 --> 01:57:19,020
ready to pitch to Hal McCray, Tom Pochette, and Frank White.

1312
01:57:19,020 --> 01:57:24,020
Doc, which are very shaky in the first inning, gave up the three runs.

1313
01:57:24,020 --> 01:57:26,020
He got the side in order in the second.

1314
01:57:26,020 --> 01:57:30,020
Pitched to only three men in the third, hated by a double play ball.

1315
01:57:30,020 --> 01:57:33,020
Runner got on in the fourth inning on a hit batsman.

1316
01:57:33,020 --> 01:57:34,020
He was out stealing.

1317
01:57:34,020 --> 01:57:36,020
Pochette singled a roll from the fifth.

1318
01:57:36,020 --> 01:57:37,020
He was out stealing.

1319
01:57:37,020 --> 01:57:39,020
And it was a single by Brett in the sixth.

1320
01:57:39,020 --> 01:57:41,020
And he was caught in a double play.

1321
01:57:41,020 --> 01:57:43,020
So the infield and Munchen have backed Ellis up.

1322
01:57:43,020 --> 01:57:48,020
The Royals have gotten people on base in every inning but the second, but they trail five-three.

1323
01:57:48,020 --> 01:57:54,020
In the bullpen for New York now, realizing that maybe Ellis has had a long, long stay in his drug out

1324
01:57:54,020 --> 01:57:59,020
while his team was getting the runs, Cidrow and Lyle are warning.

1325
01:57:59,020 --> 01:58:05,020
Left-handed Sparky Lyle, right-handed Mitch Cidrow.

1326
01:58:05,020 --> 01:58:13,020
So Whitey Herzog, who is making all the moves, getting every pitcher he possibly could in there,

1327
01:58:13,020 --> 01:58:20,020
and has kept this thing relatively close when one big hit, other than the double by Maddux,

1328
01:58:20,020 --> 01:58:26,020
especially if there's been a big one by Rivers, could have put this game out of reach, or just about.

1329
01:58:26,020 --> 01:58:29,020
Well, there's plenty of time left in this one.

1330
01:58:29,020 --> 01:58:32,020
We're at the top of the seventh.

1331
01:58:32,020 --> 01:58:35,020
McCray the batter hasn't been up officially.

1332
01:58:35,020 --> 01:58:37,020
Sacrifice Lyle and hit by a pitch.

1333
01:58:37,020 --> 01:58:39,020
Fly ball right field.

1334
01:58:39,020 --> 01:58:40,020
Not deep enough.

1335
01:58:40,020 --> 01:58:41,020
Underhead is Maddux.

1336
01:58:41,020 --> 01:58:43,020
Kelly has one hand. That's all.

1337
01:58:43,020 --> 01:58:50,020
McCray flies to right. That's one away.

1338
01:58:50,020 --> 01:58:54,020
Tom Pulchett has doubled in his drug out.

1339
01:58:54,020 --> 01:58:57,020
He doubled home a run in the first inning.

1340
01:58:57,020 --> 01:59:03,020
Said three hits and eight times up in the series.

1341
01:59:03,020 --> 01:59:04,020
That's the end of the batter.

1342
01:59:04,020 --> 01:59:09,020
Now the Royals must need to get people on base, and trailing by two runs,

1343
01:59:09,020 --> 01:59:12,020
because they can still run a little, but maybe not as much as when they were ahead.

1344
01:59:12,020 --> 01:59:16,020
Can't take too many chances. They have to get back in that thing.

1345
01:59:16,020 --> 01:59:19,020
The strike is called on Pulchett.

1346
01:59:19,020 --> 01:59:23,020
They get him in on a one-run basis, and they can try to advance that man to second base.

1347
01:59:23,020 --> 01:59:27,020
Right now they need two to tie.

1348
01:59:27,020 --> 01:59:30,020
Change up by Ellis. Bounce foul past Earth.

1349
01:59:30,020 --> 01:59:33,020
Scott came in with a good change that time and had Pulchett off balance.

1350
01:59:33,020 --> 01:59:35,020
He was swinging way ahead of it.

1351
01:59:35,020 --> 01:59:38,020
Nothing in two to Pulchett.

1352
01:59:38,020 --> 01:59:40,020
He's going to back right on deck, but he's not going to back.

1353
01:59:40,020 --> 01:59:52,020
Cookie Rohas has come out and is kneeling on deck, and will back for white. Cookie Rohas.

1354
01:59:52,020 --> 01:59:56,020
At this point, Whitey Herbog needs off end.

1355
01:59:56,020 --> 02:00:02,020
Check swing by Pulchett. Gets away from Munson. Ball one. One ball, two strikes.

1356
02:00:02,020 --> 02:00:06,020
The hits are even here, but the Yankees have a big one.

1357
02:00:06,020 --> 02:00:12,020
The one that's not the equalizer, but the different hit is the homer by Sammler.

1358
02:00:12,020 --> 02:00:19,020
It's a two-run jobThe Yankees are leading by two runs.

1359
02:00:19,020 --> 02:00:26,020
Tipped by Ellis. Little pop foul, third base side is going to be out of play.

1360
02:00:26,020 --> 02:00:31,020
Over the Royals dugout on the third base side.

1361
02:00:31,020 --> 02:00:37,020
One ball, two strikes.

1362
02:00:37,020 --> 02:00:44,020
Get in here tomorrow on the CBS Radio Network. Tomorrow afternoon.

1363
02:00:44,020 --> 02:00:53,020
What? Well, we'll see whether it'll be the finish of this thing or whether it'll be carried over to Thursday, but there will be one tomorrow.

1364
02:00:53,020 --> 02:00:55,020
Strike three, swinging.

1365
02:00:55,020 --> 02:01:01,020
Doc Ellis with the slider, running in on Pulchett, strikes him out.

1366
02:01:01,020 --> 02:01:06,020
That's four strikeouts for Ellis.

1367
02:01:06,020 --> 02:01:09,020
Two out and Cookie Rohas batting for Frank White.

1368
02:01:09,020 --> 02:01:14,020
Cookie Rohas, his second appearance, has a pink hitter in this series.

1369
02:01:14,020 --> 02:01:20,020
Right-handed batter, the veteran who for many years held down second base here, and of course in the National League,

1370
02:01:20,020 --> 02:01:25,020
had some fine years with the Philadelphia Nills.

1371
02:01:25,020 --> 02:01:29,020
The pitch is outside and high for a ball.

1372
02:01:29,020 --> 02:01:37,020
He was a fine second baseman. He played with one of the best shortstop, the best fielding shortstop in the National League, Bobby Wine.

1373
02:01:37,020 --> 02:01:47,020
Pitch is outside for a ball, and some wags somewhere wrote about the fun, the plays of Wine and Rohas.

1374
02:01:47,020 --> 02:01:53,020
That's pretty bad. Down ball to second. Picked up by Randolph, throws to first, that's all.

1375
02:01:53,020 --> 02:01:59,020
Cookie Rohas, downs out second to first, and it's one, two, three in the seventh for the Royals.

1376
02:01:59,020 --> 02:02:23,020
Here's the Fairhands State of Tenden, a new record for the New York City Stadium.

1377
02:02:23,020 --> 02:02:38,020
Coming in now, you may have heard that on the box box right here in the booth, a new record for Yankee Stadium 2, 56,808.

1378
02:02:38,020 --> 02:02:44,020
What were the people in left center field, the bleachers open, as Ernie told you earlier, for the first time.

1379
02:02:44,020 --> 02:02:52,020
That added on to what the capacity had been, 54,002. 56,808 tonight at Yankee Stadium.

1380
02:02:52,020 --> 02:02:56,020
And most of them are having fun.

1381
02:02:56,020 --> 02:03:00,020
Batting left-handed this time, takes a strike from Littell.

1382
02:03:00,020 --> 02:03:07,020
White has struck out, rounded out, and walks. He has scored a run.

1383
02:03:07,020 --> 02:03:13,020
Tomorrow afternoon, it will be Capsaic Hunter against Larry Gura, same matchup as in game one.

1384
02:03:13,020 --> 02:03:21,020
Pitch inside to White. One ball, one strike.

1385
02:03:21,020 --> 02:03:25,020
Herman Munson on deck.

1386
02:03:25,020 --> 02:03:29,020
And Mr. Munson has been instrumental tonight. He's thrown out two runners.

1387
02:03:29,020 --> 02:03:36,020
Coming back from his dismal Sunday, pitches inside for a ball, two and one.

1388
02:03:36,020 --> 02:03:42,020
It's two out two on opening day, Saturday, then the three-two away on Sunday for throwing errors.

1389
02:03:42,020 --> 02:03:47,020
But he's gunned down a couple tonight.

1390
02:03:47,020 --> 02:03:52,020
And the Royals running game has been taken away from them.

1391
02:03:52,020 --> 02:03:58,020
Dry ball, center field. Not too deep coming in toward right center is Cowens.

1392
02:03:58,020 --> 02:04:04,020
And Al Cowens makes the catch. Everybody was out there. They had Patek ranging far from short.

1393
02:04:04,020 --> 02:04:10,020
And the outfielder's coming in, but with Cowens, ball all the way.

1394
02:04:10,020 --> 02:04:14,020
Herman Munson has lined to right, rounded to short, and doubled to right.

1395
02:04:14,020 --> 02:04:18,020
A very big double setting up all this scoring in a thick finish.

1396
02:04:18,020 --> 02:04:28,020
It was after a leadoff walk to Roy White, and the double got the starter, Andy Hansler, out of there.

1397
02:04:28,020 --> 02:04:35,020
Munson, Nevada, with Carlos May on deck. One out, Yankees leading 5-3, seven finish.

1398
02:04:35,020 --> 02:04:41,020
That's New York.

1399
02:04:41,020 --> 02:04:47,020
Now the pitch. Queen strikes.

1400
02:04:47,020 --> 02:04:50,020
Yatelle has a lot of cool for a youngster.

1401
02:04:50,020 --> 02:04:56,020
Earlier in the season, people saw Whitey Herzog go to the bullpen and bring this fellow in in tight spots.

1402
02:04:56,020 --> 02:05:02,020
They were wondering why a youngster, but then when they saw him throw, they knew why.

1403
02:05:02,020 --> 02:05:07,020
So one strike delivery. Line drive, they hit the left field.

1404
02:05:07,020 --> 02:05:13,020
Over and toward the line is Wolford, and holding it first with a long single is Munson.

1405
02:05:13,020 --> 02:05:17,020
He just muscled that one out there. A line drive, they hit the left.

1406
02:05:17,020 --> 02:05:22,020
The Yankees have a runner with one out.

1407
02:05:22,020 --> 02:05:31,020
So the Yankees have cut some people on base off every pitcher that they have faced since the first hit off Letell, and the seventh for New York.

1408
02:05:31,020 --> 02:05:38,020
Carlos May up. That is for Panella, the D.H. bottom of sixth inning, and was intentionally walked.

1409
02:05:38,020 --> 02:05:42,020
Didn't work too well.

1410
02:05:42,020 --> 02:05:48,020
He was forced later on, but two runs surrounded that.

1411
02:05:48,020 --> 02:05:51,020
Patek and Rojas, the double play-dots.

1412
02:05:51,020 --> 02:05:57,020
Pucquerojas playing second base now after batting for Frank White.

1413
02:05:57,020 --> 02:06:02,020
The pitch. Five strikes tall, right at the shoulders.

1414
02:06:02,020 --> 02:06:10,020
Fastball, rolled right in there, and nothing in one.

1415
02:06:10,020 --> 02:06:17,020
Outfield straightaway on May, took way up on the bat.

1416
02:06:17,020 --> 02:06:21,020
Red glove on the right hand and a white glove on the left.

1417
02:06:21,020 --> 02:06:28,020
Fastball up and away, ball one, one ball, one strike.

1418
02:06:28,020 --> 02:06:38,020
Patek banged out proud at Yankee Stadium for the first game in this new ballpark of a playoff nature.

1419
02:06:38,020 --> 02:06:43,020
The strike itself, however, has seen others, many others.

1420
02:06:43,020 --> 02:06:50,020
Here's the threat by Letell, for the first, not in time.

1421
02:06:50,020 --> 02:06:58,020
Rojas is the second baseman, Patek at short, and George Brett at third.

1422
02:06:58,020 --> 02:07:02,020
Wolford, Cowans, and Poquette left the right of the outfield.

1423
02:07:02,020 --> 02:07:09,020
The pitch. Strikes tall outside corner. One ball, two strikes.

1424
02:07:09,020 --> 02:07:18,020
Picture of Mark Letell and the catcher is Buck Martinez.

1425
02:07:18,020 --> 02:07:29,020
If you're looking to the top of inning number eight, Patek, Martinez, and Wolford will be scheduled up for the Royals.

1426
02:07:29,020 --> 02:07:32,020
Got to get into that 90-foot game again.

1427
02:07:32,020 --> 02:07:36,020
Strikes free, swinging. May is out of there, two away.

1428
02:07:36,020 --> 02:07:41,020
Second strikeout for Letell.

1429
02:07:41,020 --> 02:07:46,020
The hand for Chris Dambler.

1430
02:07:46,020 --> 02:07:53,020
He is knocked in free of the five Yankees runs, two of them with a homer in the fourth, and another with a fielder's choice in the sixth.

1431
02:07:53,020 --> 02:07:57,020
He is one for three.

1432
02:07:57,020 --> 02:08:04,020
Six for 11, six for 12 on the series, batting 500.

1433
02:08:04,020 --> 02:08:09,020
Munson edges off first, not a big lead. No threat to go.

1434
02:08:09,020 --> 02:08:18,020
There's a high pop foul over toward the third base dugout. Martinez near it, but it bounces right on top of the dugout and into the ground.

1435
02:08:18,020 --> 02:08:27,020
One strike.

1436
02:08:27,020 --> 02:08:35,020
The Cincinnati Reds are national league champions again, defeating the Philadelphia Phils seven to six this afternoon at Cincinnati.

1437
02:08:35,020 --> 02:08:40,020
Big, nice inning. They were trailing six to four. It appeared the Phils were going to stay alive.

1438
02:08:40,020 --> 02:08:44,020
They had Ron Reid in there. It's been their best reliever all year.

1439
02:08:44,020 --> 02:08:47,020
And immediately, bang, home run, George Foster.

1440
02:08:47,020 --> 02:08:50,020
Next man up, bang, home run, Johnny Bentz.

1441
02:08:50,020 --> 02:08:56,020
Tied it up, and eventually they went on to win on a chopping ground ball to first, with the bases loaded.

1442
02:08:56,020 --> 02:09:03,020
So they will wait, play inter-squad games, and see what happens here.

1443
02:09:03,020 --> 02:09:13,020
It'll start Saturday in the National League City, Cincinnati.

1444
02:09:13,020 --> 02:09:17,020
Six, let her go. Swing, strike, and a foul.

1445
02:09:17,020 --> 02:09:21,020
And Munson, as they had a play going, will have to come back. She was not going as a stealer.

1446
02:09:21,020 --> 02:09:27,020
They had Shambler swinging, and tried to get permanent jumpers if they were to step a few over there.

1447
02:09:27,020 --> 02:09:31,020
The counter is 0-2 to Shambler.

1448
02:09:31,020 --> 02:09:36,020
That's him bleeding, 5-3.

1449
02:09:36,020 --> 02:09:47,020
They're batting at a 7.

1450
02:09:47,020 --> 02:09:56,020
The foul appears down for the time.

1451
02:09:56,020 --> 02:10:01,020
Goes to first, a hard throw over there, but Munson is only two steps off.

1452
02:10:01,020 --> 02:10:14,020
Gets back easily.

1453
02:10:14,020 --> 02:10:18,020
Now the fifth, and the pitch.

1454
02:10:18,020 --> 02:10:20,020
Ground ball, right side, a hit.

1455
02:10:20,020 --> 02:10:23,020
Almost hit Munson, who will go to third.

1456
02:10:23,020 --> 02:10:27,020
Runners at first and third, two out.

1457
02:10:27,020 --> 02:10:31,020
Chris Shambler, right in the middle of things again, strokes the single to right.

1458
02:10:31,020 --> 02:10:35,020
Munson was moving, and almost was hit by that bouncing ball.

1459
02:10:35,020 --> 02:10:37,020
Of course, that would have been the third out.

1460
02:10:37,020 --> 02:10:44,020
But now the Yankees are riding again, with runners at the corners and two away, and Greg Nettles up.

1461
02:10:44,020 --> 02:10:52,020
Nettles had a big hit in the sixth inning, singling home a run to keep things going.

1462
02:10:52,020 --> 02:10:55,020
Nettles is one for two officially, is walk one.

1463
02:10:55,020 --> 02:10:59,020
Yankees leading 5-3 and threatening for more.

1464
02:10:59,020 --> 02:11:10,020
Two out, two on, seven thinning.

1465
02:11:10,020 --> 02:11:17,020
Royal infield, shading Nettles toward right, playing very deep in the infield.

1466
02:11:17,020 --> 02:11:22,020
And Mayberry guarding the line at first base, playing behind Shambler.

1467
02:11:22,020 --> 02:11:30,020
Time called, Martinez out to talk to Lattell.

1468
02:11:30,020 --> 02:11:36,020
Now back behind the plate.

1469
02:11:36,020 --> 02:11:47,020
Greg Nettles, go for Brooks, kind of hitter, American League batting champion in 76.

1470
02:11:47,020 --> 02:11:56,020
Now Lattell is ready and throws, and it's outside low, ball one.

1471
02:11:56,020 --> 02:12:13,020
Elliott Maddox on deck. He's been heard from tonight, a double driving and a run.

1472
02:12:13,020 --> 02:12:17,020
One ball, no strikes.

1473
02:12:17,020 --> 02:12:23,020
Right fielder Tom Puchet playing very deep for Nettles, as well he might.

1474
02:12:23,020 --> 02:12:28,020
And here it comes, check swing, it's outside, ball two.

1475
02:12:28,020 --> 02:12:33,020
Two and nothing.

1476
02:12:33,020 --> 02:12:38,020
Royal pitching staff struggling.

1477
02:12:38,020 --> 02:12:42,020
Somewhat of a disappointment I would imagine to Whitey Herzog,

1478
02:12:42,020 --> 02:12:48,020
except for the brilliant job turned in Sunday by Paul Swidor.

1479
02:12:48,020 --> 02:12:52,020
And not a bad job really on opening day by Larry Gura.

1480
02:12:52,020 --> 02:12:57,020
Pitch to Nettles, a check swing foul off his foot, and it rolls out to third base,

1481
02:12:57,020 --> 02:13:01,020
where it's picked up by Brett and Nettles is down.

1482
02:13:01,020 --> 02:13:05,020
That one right off his right foot, either off the instep or the toe,

1483
02:13:05,020 --> 02:13:09,020
and he's seen so many times, what about it will do that.

1484
02:13:09,020 --> 02:13:13,020
Some hitters will wear a protective flap on his shoe.

1485
02:13:13,020 --> 02:13:17,020
Now help from the Yankee trainer with some ethyl chloride sprayed,

1486
02:13:17,020 --> 02:13:22,020
who's dead in the pain as Nettles just hits his home plate.

1487
02:13:22,020 --> 02:13:29,020
And that gives the hotel time to do a little extra warming up, loosening up as Greg Nettles.

1488
02:13:29,020 --> 02:13:32,020
You know Larry, sometimes you wonder, especially in cold weather,

1489
02:13:32,020 --> 02:13:36,020
not that it's that cold or nice, but in the spring when a hitter does that,

1490
02:13:36,020 --> 02:13:38,020
how he can ever stand again.

1491
02:13:38,020 --> 02:13:41,020
It's hard, but they do it and they manage to stand.

1492
02:13:41,020 --> 02:13:44,020
Their man on hand is looking him over now.

1493
02:13:44,020 --> 02:13:47,020
He's on his feet again, he seems to be all right.

1494
02:13:47,020 --> 02:13:51,020
You wonder how they can get back in there and take a full stride,

1495
02:13:51,020 --> 02:13:57,020
but they're so used to it I guess, and the spray doesn't help.

1496
02:13:57,020 --> 02:14:03,020
The count is two and one to Greg.

1497
02:14:03,020 --> 02:14:06,020
He has walked, struck out, and is single.

1498
02:14:06,020 --> 02:14:11,020
Line drive single, it fell right in front of Al Cowan in the sixth inning.

1499
02:14:11,020 --> 02:14:16,020
He's almost ready to catch it.

1500
02:14:16,020 --> 02:14:21,020
The tell to the stretch, the pause, and the pitch.

1501
02:14:21,020 --> 02:14:25,020
Now here it comes, right up our way, only above us.

1502
02:14:25,020 --> 02:14:34,020
Look at you now, the Nettles.

1503
02:14:34,020 --> 02:14:40,020
Munson at third base and Sam Bliss at first, two out.

1504
02:14:40,020 --> 02:14:46,020
The tell working very, very deliberately.

1505
02:14:46,020 --> 02:14:51,020
Reads his sign from Martinez.

1506
02:14:51,020 --> 02:14:55,020
Now gets set.

1507
02:14:55,020 --> 02:14:58,020
There it comes, there goes Sam Bliss, fouled back.

1508
02:14:58,020 --> 02:15:01,020
Sam Bliss moving to second base, has to return,

1509
02:15:01,020 --> 02:15:06,020
and the Nettles took a big cut and fouled it to the screen.

1510
02:15:06,020 --> 02:15:10,020
Two out remains, two balls, two strikes, two outs and two on.

1511
02:15:10,020 --> 02:15:13,020
Yankees five, Royals three.

1512
02:15:13,020 --> 02:15:26,020
Royals got three in the first, the Yankees two in the fourth, and three in the sixth.

1513
02:15:26,020 --> 02:15:32,020
Two-two.

1514
02:15:32,020 --> 02:15:40,020
Nettles was waiting, leveling the bats back and forth, long looked by Letell.

1515
02:15:40,020 --> 02:15:43,020
Young right-hander, so Sam Bliss goes again and again, it's fouled off,

1516
02:15:43,020 --> 02:15:49,020
and Chris will take off another foul, and the two coming back.

1517
02:15:49,020 --> 02:15:53,020
Two balls, two strikes, two outs.

1518
02:15:53,020 --> 02:16:00,020
Al Fitzmaur working doggedly in the bullpen for the Royals.

1519
02:16:00,020 --> 02:16:03,020
He hasn't been used or yet in this series.

1520
02:16:03,020 --> 02:16:09,020
And of course he was one of the main starters that Whitey Herzog had this year.

1521
02:16:09,020 --> 02:16:14,020
Fitzmaur, Doug Burr coming out of the bullpen to be a starter.

1522
02:16:14,020 --> 02:16:21,020
And of course, Leonard, Dennis Leonard.

1523
02:16:21,020 --> 02:16:26,020
Two-two delivery, round ball foul outside of first, past Shelley Howard.

1524
02:16:26,020 --> 02:16:32,020
Sam Bliss was holding that time at first.

1525
02:16:32,020 --> 02:16:36,020
Two-and-two.

1526
02:16:36,020 --> 02:16:40,020
It was a big three that they had, and Marty Paxton was a starter later on.

1527
02:16:40,020 --> 02:16:48,020
They all were trying to take up slack, the slack left by the injury and eventual operations on Steve Fosby,

1528
02:16:48,020 --> 02:16:50,020
potential 20-game winner.

1529
02:16:50,020 --> 02:16:54,020
He went off without half a season.

1530
02:16:54,020 --> 02:16:56,020
Here comes Diego Shambles.

1531
02:16:56,020 --> 02:16:57,020
There's a ball.

1532
02:16:57,020 --> 02:16:58,020
A bluff towards second, a throw to third.

1533
02:16:58,020 --> 02:17:00,020
Not in time.

1534
02:17:00,020 --> 02:17:02,020
Goal and base for Chris Shambles.

1535
02:17:02,020 --> 02:17:09,020
Martinez went through with a bluff, hoping that Munson would take the bluff and move off the back.

1536
02:17:09,020 --> 02:17:10,020
But Thurman was off in a little bit.

1537
02:17:10,020 --> 02:17:13,020
He drew a throw down there, but not in time.

1538
02:17:13,020 --> 02:17:15,020
Shambles gets the steal.

1539
02:17:15,020 --> 02:17:19,020
Gunners at second and third, and the count is three and two now to Nettles.

1540
02:17:19,020 --> 02:17:26,020
The free kick now would make it even more serious for the Royals, who trail by two.

1541
02:17:26,020 --> 02:17:30,020
Time called by shortstop Fred Potec.

1542
02:17:30,020 --> 02:17:34,020
And he moves over to talk to his pitcher.

1543
02:17:34,020 --> 02:17:36,020
Nettles, a left-handed batter up.

1544
02:17:36,020 --> 02:17:37,020
Now, what do you want to do?

1545
02:17:37,020 --> 02:17:38,020
Do you want to walk him?

1546
02:17:38,020 --> 02:17:41,020
James, this left-handed hitter up.

1547
02:17:41,020 --> 02:17:44,020
And load the base, setting up the force.

1548
02:17:44,020 --> 02:17:51,020
Also risking the walk, and then take your chances with right-handed hitter Elliot Maddux, who is two up next.

1549
02:17:51,020 --> 02:18:03,020
But then, if that happened, it's very possible that they could back for Maddux and put Oscar Gamble, a left-handed hitter in there, who can be tough on right-handed pipping.

1550
02:18:03,020 --> 02:18:04,020
Three and two.

1551
02:18:04,020 --> 02:18:07,020
Be very careful is what they say.

1552
02:18:07,020 --> 02:18:11,020
Careful of Nettles.

1553
02:18:11,020 --> 02:18:12,020
The windup.

1554
02:18:12,020 --> 02:18:14,020
The three-two pitch.

1555
02:18:14,020 --> 02:18:18,020
Ground ball, the first base, taken by Maybury, plays it alone for the final out.

1556
02:18:18,020 --> 02:18:22,020
The Yankees do not score, though they do have a threat going.

1557
02:18:22,020 --> 02:18:24,020
Nettles drowning out to Maybury unassisted.

1558
02:18:24,020 --> 02:18:27,020
No runs in the bottom of the seventh inning.

1559
02:18:27,020 --> 02:18:30,020
There were two hits and two men left on base.

1560
02:18:30,020 --> 02:18:37,020
At the end of seventh, the score of the Yankees five, the Royals three.

1561
02:18:37,020 --> 02:18:43,020
Now, Jim Palmer, the Baltimore pitcher today, was named the winner of the fourth annual Joe Cronin Award.

1562
02:18:43,020 --> 02:18:51,020
Palmer has won 20 more games now for six of the last seven seasons, including a league-leading 22 victories this year.

1563
02:18:51,020 --> 02:18:57,020
They had a ceremonial presentation of the award made prior to the game, near the night between the Yankees and the Royals.

1564
02:18:57,020 --> 02:19:01,020
And Mr. Cronin is celebrating his 70th birthday on this date.

1565
02:19:01,020 --> 02:19:10,020
The award is for, quote, significant achievement in baseball, end quote, and that's sort of a rough equivalent to the player of the year presentation.

1566
02:19:10,020 --> 02:19:14,020
This season, Jim Palmer won 22 games for the Orioles, the most in the league.

1567
02:19:14,020 --> 02:19:22,020
He also topped the American League in innings six, and the game started, and he was fifth with his earned run average of 2.51.

1568
02:19:22,020 --> 02:19:28,020
Jim is among the leading candidates for the Cy Young Award for 1976.

1569
02:19:28,020 --> 02:19:32,020
And if he gets it, he'll be the first American League to win it three times.

1570
02:19:32,020 --> 02:19:44,020
You're tuned to your CBS Radio Network station for game number three in the American League playoffs,

1571
02:19:44,020 --> 02:19:48,020
and that means you're tuned to the only radio spot for the World Series.

1572
02:19:48,020 --> 02:19:56,020
Starting Saturday, October the 16th, CBS Radio Sports brings you exclusive radio play-by-play coverage.

1573
02:19:56,020 --> 02:20:03,020
Follow the series on radio right here.

1574
02:20:03,020 --> 02:20:07,020
Well, a lot of folks talking about the Cincinnati Rays and what a fine ball club they are,

1575
02:20:07,020 --> 02:20:11,020
and deservedly so, prove themselves the best in baseball over the last couple of years.

1576
02:20:11,020 --> 02:20:16,020
They will face the winner of this series, of course, starting Saturday afternoon.

1577
02:20:16,020 --> 02:20:23,020
But a word about the Philadelphia Phillies, who did an excellent job and were an awesome baseball team for most of 1976.

1578
02:20:23,020 --> 02:20:28,020
They won 101 games, just one less than they read to beat them in the playoffs.

1579
02:20:28,020 --> 02:20:31,020
You'll hear from the Phillies for quite a few seasons to come.

1580
02:20:31,020 --> 02:20:35,020
Freddy Potech bounces one foul as we start the eighth inning.

1581
02:20:35,020 --> 02:20:39,020
Potech has ground it out and singles.

1582
02:20:39,020 --> 02:20:42,020
The Royals trail the Yankees five to three.

1583
02:20:42,020 --> 02:20:46,020
We're running out of track here at the eighth inning.

1584
02:20:46,020 --> 02:20:51,020
Potech, Martinez, and Walpers scheduled up, and Martinez will not bat.

1585
02:20:51,020 --> 02:20:55,020
Jamie Quirk is on deck.

1586
02:20:55,020 --> 02:21:01,020
Left-handed hitter, as what he heard is, I feel that he better go to his bench.

1587
02:21:01,020 --> 02:21:05,020
It's one and one now, the Potech.

1588
02:21:05,020 --> 02:21:15,020
Foul back.

1589
02:21:15,020 --> 02:21:25,020
One ball, two strikes.

1590
02:21:25,020 --> 02:21:28,020
Jack Ellis has gone all the way for New York.

1591
02:21:28,020 --> 02:21:35,020
Picked himself a strong ball game since the first inning when he was cold at the start.

1592
02:21:35,020 --> 02:21:40,020
Drive the third, nice play by Nettles on the trap hop, he throws him out.

1593
02:21:40,020 --> 02:21:43,020
Good play on a ball that exploded at his feet.

1594
02:21:43,020 --> 02:21:48,020
He stayed right with it, and throughout Potech, one away.

1595
02:21:48,020 --> 02:21:51,020
Two good plays by Nettles in this game.

1596
02:21:51,020 --> 02:21:59,020
Here is Jamie Quirk, left-handed ten-shitter, coming on to bat.

1597
02:21:59,020 --> 02:22:05,020
Batting for Buck Martinez, there will be another catcher in the bottom of this inning.

1598
02:22:05,020 --> 02:22:33,020
Jamie?

1599
02:22:33,020 --> 02:22:37,020
There will be another catcher in the bottom of this inning.

1600
02:22:37,020 --> 02:22:42,020
Jamie Quirk, left-handed hitter.

1601
02:22:42,020 --> 02:22:45,020
All the years, 246.

1602
02:22:45,020 --> 02:22:50,020
And limited duty for the Royals, but he helped out too.

1603
02:22:50,020 --> 02:23:00,020
Picked his outside to him for a ball.

1604
02:23:00,020 --> 02:23:03,020
One ball, no strikes.

1605
02:23:03,020 --> 02:23:08,020
And the pick to Quirk gets a high foul ball out of play, third base five.

1606
02:23:08,020 --> 02:23:11,020
Let's pause here ten seconds for safe identification.

1607
02:23:11,020 --> 02:23:13,020
This is the CBS Radio Network.

1608
02:23:13,020 --> 02:23:18,020
With the 97-coin cash box sticker, you could win a television set, or even money.

1609
02:23:18,020 --> 02:23:25,020
But without the sticker, you get nothing.

1610
02:23:25,020 --> 02:23:28,020
Back at Yankee City, a med-marching here with Ernie Harwell.

1611
02:23:28,020 --> 02:23:30,020
Yankee is leading the Royals 5-3.

1612
02:23:30,020 --> 02:23:35,020
We're in the top of the eighth inning, and Jamie Quirk is batting for Buck Martinez.

1613
02:23:35,020 --> 02:23:39,020
He was the top left-handed ten-shitter for the Royals this year.

1614
02:23:39,020 --> 02:23:42,020
Inside, a slider from Doc Ellis.

1615
02:23:42,020 --> 02:23:44,020
Two balls, one strike.

1616
02:23:44,020 --> 02:23:49,020
His first full year in the majors, and he backed up George Bledis, third.

1617
02:23:49,020 --> 02:23:52,020
Also played a couple of games at first base.

1618
02:23:52,020 --> 02:23:55,020
Down foul off to the right.

1619
02:23:55,020 --> 02:24:05,020
Two and two.

1620
02:24:05,020 --> 02:24:22,020
Two balls, two strikes.

1621
02:24:22,020 --> 02:24:26,020
He goes to work, and it's way high, off the glove of Munson, who looks out at him,

1622
02:24:26,020 --> 02:24:30,020
and says, that's not what I called for.

1623
02:24:30,020 --> 02:24:36,020
Those bullpens are busy with Lyle and Tidro and the Yankee fan, and Dennis Leonard,

1624
02:24:36,020 --> 02:24:44,020
who started the Sunday game right-handed, going with Paul Splittor in the Royals bullpen.

1625
02:24:44,020 --> 02:24:49,020
The count is two and two, and the scoreboard has three and three up there.

1626
02:24:49,020 --> 02:24:52,020
It's not easy, is it?

1627
02:24:52,020 --> 02:24:58,020
For a while it was two and three, and then they changed it to three and three.

1628
02:24:58,020 --> 02:25:00,020
Ellis working to Quirk.

1629
02:25:00,020 --> 02:25:07,020
And a way outside pitch is off the edge of the glove by Munson.

1630
02:25:07,020 --> 02:25:17,020
Bill is having a time with Ellis right now.

1631
02:25:17,020 --> 02:25:21,020
Three balls, two strikes.

1632
02:25:21,020 --> 02:25:32,020
And her dog is coming out to talk to the plate umpire, George Maloney.

1633
02:25:32,020 --> 02:25:41,020
He has had his word, and I don't know what that was either.

1634
02:25:41,020 --> 02:25:47,020
Danny Quirk from Whittier, California, stands in three and two.

1635
02:25:47,020 --> 02:25:49,020
Fixed by Ellis, a foul ball.

1636
02:25:49,020 --> 02:25:54,020
He went for a pitch around the knees, or maybe lower, but it was close enough to go for.

1637
02:25:54,020 --> 02:25:57,020
And the count hangs at three and two.

1638
02:25:57,020 --> 02:26:05,020
Jim Walford on deck.

1639
02:26:05,020 --> 02:26:08,020
I just saw one of the policemen, and I don't know what that was for.

1640
02:26:08,020 --> 02:26:15,020
They just went over and got a baseball, and I guess they're going to say it's illegal.

1641
02:26:15,020 --> 02:26:18,020
Strike three, swinging.

1642
02:26:18,020 --> 02:26:22,020
Doc Ellis with a shaking fast ball strikes out, then hitter Jamie Quirk.

1643
02:26:22,020 --> 02:26:28,020
They are two away.

1644
02:26:28,020 --> 02:26:30,020
Jim Walford is up.

1645
02:26:30,020 --> 02:26:35,020
He has walked, rounded out, and flied to center, and Billy Martin wants a word with Ellis.

1646
02:26:35,020 --> 02:26:41,020
Johnson is out there talking, and Nettles is over from third.

1647
02:26:41,020 --> 02:26:49,020
Yankees now just four outs away from a very big, big win in this playoff series, and an edge.

1648
02:26:49,020 --> 02:26:55,020
A big edge going into tomorrow afternoon.

1649
02:26:55,020 --> 02:26:57,020
Walford, 0 for 2.

1650
02:26:57,020 --> 02:27:01,020
He's going to run in the first inning, when it appeared for a while as if the Royals were going to

1651
02:27:01,020 --> 02:27:07,020
hit and run and run away from the Yankees and hide, but that is not to be.

1652
02:27:07,020 --> 02:27:16,020
Strike called, slider hitting the outside corner.

1653
02:27:16,020 --> 02:27:20,020
Ellis working smoothly now.

1654
02:27:20,020 --> 02:27:25,020
A 1-2-3 inning in the second, again in the seventh.

1655
02:27:25,020 --> 02:27:30,020
Ball back, one ball, one strike.

1656
02:27:30,020 --> 02:27:39,020
Two outs away, nobody on.

1657
02:27:39,020 --> 02:27:43,020
Ellis reads the sign and goes to work.

1658
02:27:43,020 --> 02:27:53,020
Ball outside, 2-1.

1659
02:27:53,020 --> 02:27:59,020
Al Cowan is on deck.

1660
02:27:59,020 --> 02:28:03,020
Low and outside, ball free, 3-1.

1661
02:28:03,020 --> 02:28:07,020
No doubt about it, the Royals do miss Amos Odo.

1662
02:28:07,020 --> 02:28:17,020
Regardless of what's said or what Lovato has shown, you just don't get a player of that caliber out in a series like this and not feel it.

1663
02:28:17,020 --> 02:28:21,020
Ball four, Walford is on, and that is not to knock Jim Walford.

1664
02:28:21,020 --> 02:28:28,020
He's done a good job playing the outfield and being on base a while.

1665
02:28:28,020 --> 02:28:32,020
Brock Ellis walks his second batter.

1666
02:28:32,020 --> 02:28:35,020
He's hit one.

1667
02:28:35,020 --> 02:28:39,020
And now, as it turns out, the tying runs at the plate for the Royals.

1668
02:28:39,020 --> 02:28:49,020
Al Cowan, who does not hit the long ball, is one for free tonight, singled in the third.

1669
02:28:49,020 --> 02:28:56,020
The Royals have not been able to lay back and wait for the long ball this season, mainly because their main home run hitter,

1670
02:28:56,020 --> 02:29:03,020
John Mayberry, has had an off year.

1671
02:29:03,020 --> 02:29:14,020
Hits the Cowan inside, ball one.

1672
02:29:14,020 --> 02:29:20,020
Ellis is fan five while walking, too.

1673
02:29:20,020 --> 02:29:24,020
Strike, one ball, one strike.

1674
02:29:24,020 --> 02:29:27,020
25, Royals three, Royals batting in the eighth.

1675
02:29:27,020 --> 02:29:33,020
Two out, one on.

1676
02:29:33,020 --> 02:29:39,020
Infield deep, the set by Ellis, and the pitch is fouled back by Cowan.

1677
02:29:39,020 --> 02:29:43,020
So he is behind one and two.

1678
02:29:43,020 --> 02:29:50,020
And he's been pitched outside by Ellis all night long, breaking stuff away, and it's given him trouble.

1679
02:29:50,020 --> 02:29:56,020
He managed one hit, leadoff single in the third, but he was doubled up after that.

1680
02:29:56,020 --> 02:30:01,020
And Nettles made a good playoff in the sixth.

1681
02:30:01,020 --> 02:30:06,020
There's a drive over short, but stabbed by Stanley for the final out.

1682
02:30:06,020 --> 02:30:11,020
Nice play by Fred Stanley. He went to his left, leaked a little bit, and speared a hotline drive.

1683
02:30:11,020 --> 02:30:14,020
And Cowan is hitting in tough luck tonight.

1684
02:30:14,020 --> 02:30:16,020
That's all for the Royals in the eighth inning.

1685
02:30:16,020 --> 02:30:19,020
No runs, no hits, one left.

1686
02:30:19,020 --> 02:30:24,020
In the middle of the eighth, the score of the Yankees five, the Royals three.

1687
02:30:24,020 --> 02:30:31,020
Introducing three new full-size cars from Buick, the 1977 Les Sabres, Amectra, and Riviera.

1688
02:30:31,020 --> 02:30:35,020
Something very special has happened to them since last year.

1689
02:30:35,020 --> 02:30:38,020
There's a new livery in the spring.

1690
02:30:38,020 --> 02:30:44,020
They're impressively agile, easy to maneuver, and they're compact, and they offer better gas mileage.

1691
02:30:44,020 --> 02:30:49,020
In APHS, the new Les Sabres was standard V6 in automatic transmission.

1692
02:30:49,020 --> 02:30:54,020
Got 25 miles per gallon on the highway, 18 in the city.

1693
02:30:54,020 --> 02:30:57,020
Amectra and Riviera was standard V8 in automatic transmission.

1694
02:30:57,020 --> 02:31:01,020
Got 22 on the highway, 15 in the city.

1695
02:31:01,020 --> 02:31:06,020
Now these figures are estimates. In California, their lower annual mileage may vary.

1696
02:31:06,020 --> 02:31:11,020
But those are remarkable mileage numbers for luxurious six passenger automobiles.

1697
02:31:11,020 --> 02:31:16,020
Amectra and Riviera are the full-size cars of the future.

1698
02:31:16,020 --> 02:31:45,020
The only other change is the only change in the sitting for Whitey Herzog.

1699
02:31:45,020 --> 02:31:53,020
The Royals are trailing the Yankees, five to three, and the Yankees will be at bat in the bottom of the eighth inning

1700
02:31:53,020 --> 02:31:56,020
in the lower third of their order coming up against Marc Lattell.

1701
02:31:56,020 --> 02:31:59,020
Maddox, Randolph, and Stanley scheduled up.

1702
02:31:59,020 --> 02:32:05,020
Yankees with two big innings, the fourth from the sixth with two in the fourth and three in the sixth.

1703
02:32:05,020 --> 02:32:12,020
And the Royals got their three runs in the first, so there's been the big inning concept tonight.

1704
02:32:12,020 --> 02:32:19,020
Lattell has not done badly since coming on.

1705
02:32:19,020 --> 02:32:27,020
He came on to put out all kinds of smoldering and raging fires in the sixth inning with a strikeout, a walk, and a pop-up.

1706
02:32:27,020 --> 02:32:30,020
Then got out of a self-made jam in the seventh.

1707
02:32:30,020 --> 02:32:36,020
He had given up a couple of base hits, but he got medals out, and that's to care of that.

1708
02:32:36,020 --> 02:32:44,020
Remember that tomorrow on the CBS Radio Network, Game 4 will be broadcast right here on radio with the Yankees against the Royals,

1709
02:32:44,020 --> 02:32:51,020
airtime 3.07 Eastern Daylight Time, 2.07 Central Time.

1710
02:32:51,020 --> 02:32:56,020
Tomorrow, Game 4, 3.07 Eastern Daylight Time.

1711
02:32:56,020 --> 02:33:04,020
Elliott Maddox first up, one for three. He doubled home a run in the sixth inning.

1712
02:33:04,020 --> 02:33:10,020
Tomorrow, it'll be Captain Hunter for the New York Yankees, trying for a second series win.

1713
02:33:10,020 --> 02:33:16,020
And Larry Gura will come out, try to hold the board as it stands now for Kansas City.

1714
02:33:16,020 --> 02:33:27,020
The Royals do have one more chance here tonightThe pitch is inside the Maddox ball once.

1715
02:33:27,020 --> 02:33:38,020
Mattel leading the sign and going to work on Maddox. Foul ball out of play, so at the right side and toward the upper deck, into the upper deck.

1716
02:33:38,020 --> 02:33:47,020
Three decks at Yankee StadiumThe middle deck are lower, just below press row and radio, though, here.

1717
02:33:47,020 --> 02:33:51,020
Kind of a mezzanine type deck.

1718
02:33:51,020 --> 02:33:57,020
Slide or outside, two balls, one strike.

1719
02:33:57,020 --> 02:34:03,020
Big upper deck, and it goes straight up like a lot of the new parks, like the one in Anaheim,

1720
02:34:03,020 --> 02:34:14,020
which gives everybody a clear shot of the field, good spot, even if you are in the third deck. There's a called strike.

1721
02:34:14,020 --> 02:34:25,020
There was an unevenness in center field earlier in the year. They first landscaped this ground, re-landscaped it.

1722
02:34:25,020 --> 02:34:33,020
Check swing capper to the mound, picked up by Mattel. He throws Maddox out. One away.

1723
02:34:33,020 --> 02:34:42,020
Willie Randolph is up. He's Hitless. He's Hitless in a series, 0-2 tonight and 0-9 in the three games played so far.

1724
02:34:42,020 --> 02:34:46,020
Turns the ninth play around second base, though.

1725
02:34:46,020 --> 02:34:54,020
Turns the double play as well as anybody can imagine. Good fielding second baseman.

1726
02:34:54,020 --> 02:35:03,020
The pitch. Fastball blazed inside, ball one.

1727
02:35:03,020 --> 02:35:07,020
Yankee's leading 5-3 over Kansas City.

1728
02:35:07,020 --> 02:35:12,020
Bottom of the eighth inning, one out. Round ball passed the mound this time and into center field.

1729
02:35:12,020 --> 02:35:16,020
First hit for Willie Randolph in the series.

1730
02:35:16,020 --> 02:35:20,020
It whistled past the mound and floated on the grass, but not enough.

1731
02:35:20,020 --> 02:35:25,020
And Rojas, crossing to his right, contact to his left, did not catch up with it.

1732
02:35:25,020 --> 02:35:30,020
Randolph gets his first playoff hit.

1733
02:35:30,020 --> 02:35:34,020
The third hit off Latel, and Fred Stanley is up.

1734
02:35:34,020 --> 02:35:39,020
Stanley has popped up, ratted out, and drawn a walk.

1735
02:35:39,020 --> 02:35:43,020
Yankee's with their two big innings, leading 5-3.

1736
02:35:43,020 --> 02:35:49,020
Trying for more. They have been buzzing around here ever since the fourth inning.

1737
02:35:49,020 --> 02:35:57,020
After three very strong innings had been worked by Andy Hasler, the starter.

1738
02:35:57,020 --> 02:36:01,020
So the first base, not in time.

1739
02:36:01,020 --> 02:36:14,020
Randolph at first, one out.

1740
02:36:14,020 --> 02:36:20,020
Latel works, and it's way outside, not a pitch out.

1741
02:36:20,020 --> 02:36:23,020
A ball.

1742
02:36:23,020 --> 02:36:27,020
In the Royal Knights, their last chance, they will have their middle three up.

1743
02:36:27,020 --> 02:36:36,020
They're the belt of their batting order, Brett, Mayberry, and McCray.

1744
02:36:36,020 --> 02:36:38,020
Latel to Stanley, runner goes.

1745
02:36:38,020 --> 02:36:41,020
Throw to second base, and he's taped.

1746
02:36:41,020 --> 02:36:44,020
Stolen base, Willie Randolph.

1747
02:36:44,020 --> 02:36:47,020
The pitch was a ball. It counted one ball, one strike for Stanley.

1748
02:36:47,020 --> 02:36:52,020
A strike rather, and a stolen base for Randolph.

1749
02:36:52,020 --> 02:37:00,020
Put a Yankee in scoring position. Willie Martin, ever trying to get that extra edge.

1750
02:37:00,020 --> 02:37:03,020
Never letting up.

1751
02:37:03,020 --> 02:37:07,020
One ball, one strike to Stanley.

1752
02:37:07,020 --> 02:37:12,020
Pre-run game, a lot different from a two-run game in any ballpark.

1753
02:37:12,020 --> 02:37:19,020
Get a man on in a pre-run game, it still isn't enough.

1754
02:37:19,020 --> 02:37:23,020
It is. Fly ball, shallow right center.

1755
02:37:23,020 --> 02:37:29,020
Coming on is the ice fielder, Pochette, who makes the play and throws in the pocket.

1756
02:37:29,020 --> 02:37:34,020
He called off Cowan, who had broken for the ball, but it was in the domain of the right fielder.

1757
02:37:34,020 --> 02:37:43,020
Stanley flies to Pochette, two out. Mickey Rivers up.

1758
02:37:43,020 --> 02:37:57,020
Rivers is one for four, infield hit of the first inning.

1759
02:37:57,020 --> 02:38:03,020
Rivers has three hits and 13 times ups in this series.

1760
02:38:03,020 --> 02:38:12,020
Six to six low and outside, ball one.

1761
02:38:12,020 --> 02:38:18,020
Randolph with speed into his leadoff second base.

1762
02:38:18,020 --> 02:38:25,020
Lattell checks him out and throws to the plate, strike swinging.

1763
02:38:25,020 --> 02:38:31,020
Rivers hasn't had the ball out of the infield tonight really, his hit was too shortstop on the first inning.

1764
02:38:31,020 --> 02:38:37,020
Since then he's fouled out, ratted out, and popped up.

1765
02:38:37,020 --> 02:38:42,020
Fets way over at the plate, pushing the basket.

1766
02:38:42,020 --> 02:38:45,020
Lattell kicks and throws, ground ball to second.

1767
02:38:45,020 --> 02:38:51,020
Up with it's rojas, over the first low throw, dug out by Maybury and that's the end of the year.

1768
02:38:51,020 --> 02:38:57,020
The Yankees in the eighth inning have no runs, one hit, they leave one.

1769
02:38:57,020 --> 02:39:03,020
And at the end of eight innings the score is New York five, Kansas City three.

1770
02:39:03,020 --> 02:39:10,020
In a country with two centuries with the most exciting history on earth, can any one year stand out?

1771
02:39:10,020 --> 02:39:20,020
Oh yes, 1876, when the National Baseball League played its very first season and Alexander Graham Bell made the first home call ever.

1772
02:39:20,020 --> 02:39:25,020
And the mountains, mining towns, and citizens of Colorado became our 38 states.

1773
02:39:25,020 --> 02:39:29,020
And a beer was born in St. Louis, Missouri.

1774
02:39:29,020 --> 02:39:34,020
It was brewed with only the very finest ingredients and slowly beached wood age.

1775
02:39:34,020 --> 02:39:39,020
Its taste, smoothness, and drinkability were in a word, incomparable.

1776
02:39:39,020 --> 02:39:42,020
Its payment appeal spread quickly to all corners of the earth.

1777
02:39:42,020 --> 02:39:46,020
It was Budweiser, and it still is today.

1778
02:39:46,020 --> 02:39:48,020
Still beached wood age.

1779
02:39:48,020 --> 02:39:55,020
Still brewed proudly by people who care about college.

1780
02:39:55,020 --> 02:40:00,020
Budweiser, the king of beers for a hundred years.

1781
02:40:00,020 --> 02:40:04,020
And I support headquarters St. Louis, Missouri.

1782
02:40:04,020 --> 02:40:07,020
Well what's new for baseball fans once the postseason game ends?

1783
02:40:07,020 --> 02:40:09,020
That's easy to hot stove lead.

1784
02:40:09,020 --> 02:40:13,020
That's always a fun time with a season to rehash trades and expansion.

1785
02:40:13,020 --> 02:40:15,020
Talk about rookies.

1786
02:40:15,020 --> 02:40:19,020
And what's the one thing that'll make your hot stove lead season more assuring?

1787
02:40:19,020 --> 02:40:23,020
Knowing that you've already made plans for your season tickets for 77.

1788
02:40:23,020 --> 02:40:26,020
Those plans are as close as a telephone.

1789
02:40:26,020 --> 02:40:30,020
Make a call to any club's ticket department and have your tickets set aside.

1790
02:40:30,020 --> 02:40:31,020
Do it right away.

1791
02:40:31,020 --> 02:40:36,020
Businesses will find their season tickets very useful for entertaining.

1792
02:40:36,020 --> 02:40:43,020
The preceding has been brought to you on behalf of Major League Baseball.

1793
02:40:43,020 --> 02:40:47,020
Sparkey Lyle has been brought in by Billy Martin to work the ninth inning.

1794
02:40:47,020 --> 02:40:49,020
Figuring that Doc Ellis has thrown a lot of pitches.

1795
02:40:49,020 --> 02:40:52,020
Maybe it's maybe retiring a little bit.

1796
02:40:52,020 --> 02:40:55,020
Stiffening up some and he wonders the fresh arm in there.

1797
02:40:55,020 --> 02:40:58,020
Particularly the pitch to Brett and Mayberry who are left-handed batters.

1798
02:40:58,020 --> 02:41:02,020
It will be the first two hitters this inning.

1799
02:41:02,020 --> 02:41:07,020
Doc Ellis went eight innings, gave up six hits and three runs, walked two,

1800
02:41:07,020 --> 02:41:12,020
struck out four, he struck out five, and he hit a batter.

1801
02:41:12,020 --> 02:41:18,020
And just a fine ball game after the rough first inning when they scored three runs off him.

1802
02:41:18,020 --> 02:41:24,020
So Lyle now is seven and eight on the year with a 2.26 earned on average.

1803
02:41:24,020 --> 02:41:26,020
He's on to work.

1804
02:41:26,020 --> 02:41:29,020
And he is warming up right now.

1805
02:41:29,020 --> 02:41:32,020
He'll face Brett, Mayberry, and McCray.

1806
02:41:32,020 --> 02:41:37,020
PBS Radio Sports is bringing you the play-by-play action in the American League Championship.

1807
02:41:37,020 --> 02:41:39,020
And there is more to come.

1808
02:41:39,020 --> 02:41:42,020
The World Series starts October 16th.

1809
02:41:42,020 --> 02:41:43,020
That's next Saturday.

1810
02:41:43,020 --> 02:41:48,020
And you'll hear exclusive radio coverage play-by-play of the 1976 World Series

1811
02:41:48,020 --> 02:41:56,020
right here on this PBS Radio Network station.

1812
02:41:56,020 --> 02:42:02,020
Lyle has completed his warm-up.

1813
02:42:02,020 --> 02:42:07,020
He is making his first appearance in this playoff series.

1814
02:42:07,020 --> 02:42:13,020
Dick Kidrow is the only other Yankee reliever to make an appearance.

1815
02:42:13,020 --> 02:42:18,020
He worked in Sunday's game.

1816
02:42:18,020 --> 02:42:21,020
First man up will be George Brett, and he is two for three.

1817
02:42:21,020 --> 02:42:26,020
Brett is now six for ten in this series.

1818
02:42:26,020 --> 02:42:30,020
He has knocked in one of the runs tonight and scored one.

1819
02:42:30,020 --> 02:42:38,020
And Lyle is here to save it.

1820
02:42:38,020 --> 02:42:53,020
Brett, left-handed hitter, lays back, and Lyle pitches inside and high at ball one.

1821
02:42:53,020 --> 02:42:59,020
Sparky to the windup, throws high and inside again, ball two.

1822
02:42:59,020 --> 02:43:03,020
Lyle was not used much in the second half of the season.

1823
02:43:03,020 --> 02:43:07,020
Mainly he said, and he admitted, that Grant Jackson had done a super job from the left side

1824
02:43:07,020 --> 02:43:10,020
along with right-hander Kidrow.

1825
02:43:10,020 --> 02:43:13,020
High ball three.

1826
02:43:13,020 --> 02:43:17,020
So he said, I haven't had much work, but I'm ready.

1827
02:43:17,020 --> 02:43:19,020
Sparky has the good slider.

1828
02:43:19,020 --> 02:43:24,020
That is his outfit.

1829
02:43:24,020 --> 02:43:26,020
Ball four.

1830
02:43:26,020 --> 02:43:30,020
Brett walks. He's on base again for the third time he's on base.

1831
02:43:30,020 --> 02:43:35,020
That means that Mayberry is a tying run, as will everybody be as long as the man is on here.

1832
02:43:35,020 --> 02:43:42,020
The Yankees lead it five for three as the Royals try to do something here in the ninth inning.

1833
02:43:42,020 --> 02:43:47,020
They're battling now.

1834
02:43:47,020 --> 02:43:51,020
Backed up here with a five-three score against them in game three.

1835
02:43:51,020 --> 02:44:00,020
And the prospect of going against Katz their center with a deciding game, if that's the case, tomorrow.

1836
02:44:00,020 --> 02:44:03,020
There's a strike to Mayberry, taking on that first pitch.

1837
02:44:03,020 --> 02:44:09,020
John has had one hit in free-trip, the single in the left center field in the first inning.

1838
02:44:09,020 --> 02:44:13,020
Wow, works again, and there's a long drive to right field, but it hangs up.

1839
02:44:13,020 --> 02:44:16,020
Under it is Maddox. He comes in, he's got it, and there's one away.

1840
02:44:16,020 --> 02:44:21,020
It started out well, but it just died, and it sounds as if Mayberry may have broken his back.

1841
02:44:21,020 --> 02:44:26,020
I think he did break it, man. He got the wood on it, but then the wood cracked on it.

1842
02:44:26,020 --> 02:44:29,020
Yeah, that held it all up. It just died out there.

1843
02:44:29,020 --> 02:44:33,020
So there's one away as Big John was trying to tie it up right there.

1844
02:44:33,020 --> 02:44:36,020
Now it's Hal McCray, and McCray is due.

1845
02:44:36,020 --> 02:44:44,020
Right now he is the only member on either team of the starting pitch players not to have a hit in this series so far.

1846
02:44:44,020 --> 02:44:50,020
He is 0-4-8. He did have a sacrifice fly in the first inning tonight to drive in a run.

1847
02:44:50,020 --> 02:44:52,020
He was hit by a pitch in the fourth.

1848
02:44:52,020 --> 02:44:56,020
He is 0-4-1 in this game, 0-4-8 on a series.

1849
02:44:56,020 --> 02:45:00,020
In field, a double play depth, the pitch is high, ball one.

1850
02:45:03,020 --> 02:45:07,020
Focky Lowe from Reynoldsville, Pennsylvania.

1851
02:45:07,020 --> 02:45:13,020
Originally, Lowe carved back into his feet by McCray.

1852
02:45:13,020 --> 02:45:15,020
One ball, one strike.

1853
02:45:19,020 --> 02:45:24,020
One thing, as we told you, that Charlie Lowe has said about McCray,

1854
02:45:24,020 --> 02:45:30,020
he's just trying to tone him down a little and try not to have him go for the long ball too much, just hit the way he did all year.

1855
02:45:31,020 --> 02:45:35,020
There's a fly ball going foul down into right field and in the crowd.

1856
02:45:36,020 --> 02:45:38,020
One ball, two strikes.

1857
02:45:38,020 --> 02:45:45,020
Bled at first base, one out. Yankee bullpen as left-hander Grant Jackson, right-hander Dick Kidrill working.

1858
02:45:46,020 --> 02:45:49,020
There's been a lot of work in those bullpens tonight both sides.

1859
02:45:49,020 --> 02:45:52,020
They're all warm. They're ready to go.

1860
02:45:52,020 --> 02:45:54,020
Everybody's been up just about.

1861
02:45:56,020 --> 02:45:58,020
Steph Bird in the Kansas City pen.

1862
02:45:58,020 --> 02:46:00,020
Lowe has the count his way.

1863
02:46:00,020 --> 02:46:02,020
One ball, two strikes to Howell McCray.

1864
02:46:02,020 --> 02:46:06,020
The look short first and the pitch to the plate is high.

1865
02:46:06,020 --> 02:46:08,020
Ball two, two and two.

1866
02:46:10,020 --> 02:46:15,020
McCray, a right-handed batter up there, and Tom Pochette, a left-handed batter, is on deck.

1867
02:46:17,020 --> 02:46:19,020
There it is. Foul again.

1868
02:46:19,020 --> 02:46:21,020
McCray, a left-handed batter, is on deck.

1869
02:46:21,020 --> 02:46:23,020
Tom Pochette, a left-handed batter, is on deck.

1870
02:46:23,020 --> 02:46:25,020
Tom Pochette, a left-handed batter, is on deck.

1871
02:46:25,020 --> 02:46:28,020
There it is. Foul again.

1872
02:46:28,020 --> 02:46:31,020
McCray trying to go to the opposite field on an outside pitch.

1873
02:46:35,020 --> 02:46:38,020
Yankee five, Royals three, top of the night.

1874
02:46:41,020 --> 02:46:45,020
A lot was done in the ninth inning by the Cincinnati Reds today.

1875
02:46:45,020 --> 02:46:50,020
Hills had a two-run lead, and the Reds just overcame it.

1876
02:46:50,020 --> 02:46:55,020
Lyle Reddy pitching to McCray and foul back.

1877
02:47:00,020 --> 02:47:03,020
Well, one half of Howell McCray's dream has come true.

1878
02:47:03,020 --> 02:47:08,020
The Cincinnati Reds, whom he used to play for, won their side of it in the National League.

1879
02:47:08,020 --> 02:47:11,020
What he has wanted to do is get into the World Series against them.

1880
02:47:11,020 --> 02:47:13,020
They're the team that traded him away.

1881
02:47:15,020 --> 02:47:17,020
Good pitch.

1882
02:47:17,020 --> 02:47:20,020
Foul again, spoiling an outside fastball.

1883
02:47:22,020 --> 02:47:25,020
But there's a way to go for Mr. McCray to get that.

1884
02:47:25,020 --> 02:47:32,020
His team's got to get up on his back, from his back, and try to beat the Yankees in the playoffs.

1885
02:47:33,020 --> 02:47:34,020
Time left.

1886
02:47:35,020 --> 02:47:36,020
The step by Lyle.

1887
02:47:37,020 --> 02:47:38,020
The pitch.

1888
02:47:38,020 --> 02:47:40,020
Fly ball right field.

1889
02:47:40,020 --> 02:47:42,020
Back forward is Maddox.

1890
02:47:42,020 --> 02:47:47,020
Towards the line, he's got it throughout.

1891
02:47:47,020 --> 02:47:51,020
McCray did go to the opposite field, but lifted it up there.

1892
02:47:51,020 --> 02:47:55,020
Now there'll be a pen-pitter for Puchet.

1893
02:47:59,020 --> 02:48:04,020
David Nelson, an infielder, has gone aback for Tom Puchet.

1894
02:48:04,020 --> 02:48:07,020
Nelson is a right-handed hitter.

1895
02:48:07,020 --> 02:48:10,020
Nelson on the year in limited play.

1896
02:48:10,020 --> 02:48:11,020
Hit 235.

1897
02:48:11,020 --> 02:48:13,020
He used to be very, very fast.

1898
02:48:13,020 --> 02:48:15,020
He's been hampered by injuries.

1899
02:48:15,020 --> 02:48:18,020
Got in 78 ball games for the Royals.

1900
02:48:18,020 --> 02:48:21,020
Had one homer in 17 runs batted in.

1901
02:48:23,020 --> 02:48:26,020
Had four doubles and a couple of triples.

1902
02:48:26,020 --> 02:48:29,020
David Nelson has been around in the majors.

1903
02:48:29,020 --> 02:48:32,020
Last team he played for, the Texas Rangers.

1904
02:48:32,020 --> 02:48:37,020
Very likeable seller.

1905
02:48:37,020 --> 02:48:39,020
Been a valuable boy.

1906
02:48:39,020 --> 02:48:42,020
Got a have on all the clubs he's played with.

1907
02:48:42,020 --> 02:48:46,020
David Nelson, the Royals down to their last out.

1908
02:48:46,020 --> 02:48:48,020
Try to hang in there.

1909
02:48:48,020 --> 02:48:52,020
Get one up on the Yankees, but they trail by two runs.

1910
02:48:52,020 --> 02:48:55,020
The Yankee bench.

1911
02:48:55,020 --> 02:48:57,020
How's the Yankee bench?

1912
02:48:57,020 --> 02:49:02,020
The Yankee bench.

1913
02:49:02,020 --> 02:49:07,020
How's her motioning nettles at third to come in a half step.

1914
02:49:09,020 --> 02:49:10,020
Nettles can send me.

1915
02:49:10,020 --> 02:49:11,020
Nelson can still run.

1916
02:49:11,020 --> 02:49:13,020
There's a ground ball.

1917
02:49:13,020 --> 02:49:17,020
His short third, it is a foul ball off the foot of Nelson.

1918
02:49:20,020 --> 02:49:22,020
Runner at first is George Brett.

1919
02:49:22,020 --> 02:49:27,020
Led the inning with a walk, but he has stayed there on two fly balls to right field.

1920
02:49:33,020 --> 02:49:37,020
Nothing in one, defensive hitter Dave Nelson.

1921
02:49:40,020 --> 02:49:44,020
While in there trying to nail it down for Doc Ellison.

1922
02:49:44,020 --> 02:49:47,020
He throws and it's a foul again.

1923
02:49:47,020 --> 02:49:51,020
This time up into the upper deck along first base line and a nice catch

1924
02:49:51,020 --> 02:49:54,020
by a young shoe, almost lost it but held on.

1925
02:49:58,020 --> 02:50:00,020
Nelson has played with the Cleveland Indians.

1926
02:50:00,020 --> 02:50:06,020
He's played with Washington Senators when they were still in Washington in 1970.

1927
02:50:06,020 --> 02:50:08,020
Moved to Texas later.

1928
02:50:09,020 --> 02:50:11,020
And now here.

1929
02:50:11,020 --> 02:50:14,020
Yankee crowd roaring, sensing a win.

1930
02:50:14,020 --> 02:50:17,020
As Lyle gets in, the count is 0-2.

1931
02:50:17,020 --> 02:50:19,020
Here's the pitch.

1932
02:50:19,020 --> 02:50:24,020
A ball high, fast ball upstairs and the count is 1-2.

1933
02:50:29,020 --> 02:50:33,020
Not only are they cheering but they're up on their feet.

1934
02:50:33,020 --> 02:50:37,020
There's a little pop foul, first base side and it's going to be out of play.

1935
02:50:37,020 --> 02:50:39,020
Samblers gave it a good try.

1936
02:50:39,020 --> 02:50:43,020
It was just one row past the outstretched glove of Samblers.

1937
02:50:43,020 --> 02:50:47,020
There's hardly any foul room after you pass first base.

1938
02:50:47,020 --> 02:50:49,020
Foul room goes to practically nothing.

1939
02:50:49,020 --> 02:50:53,020
A little isosceles triangle down there toward the foul line.

1940
02:50:53,020 --> 02:50:55,020
Samblers had no room.

1941
02:50:55,020 --> 02:50:58,020
Crowd all up standing.

1942
02:50:59,020 --> 02:51:05,020
Nelson waiting for the 1-2 pitch from Sparky Lyle as the Yankees try to make it game three.

1943
02:51:05,020 --> 02:51:07,020
The winner, period.

1944
02:51:07,020 --> 02:51:09,020
Foul ball back.

1945
02:51:09,020 --> 02:51:12,020
The Yankees leading 5-3 in the ninth.

1946
02:51:12,020 --> 02:51:17,020
They have out hit the Royals 9-6.

1947
02:51:20,020 --> 02:51:25,020
The Royals are just nuts except for brief flashes on Sunday in the first inning today.

1948
02:51:25,020 --> 02:51:29,020
But anything's about mounting any consistent attack.

1949
02:51:29,020 --> 02:51:30,020
Nelson wants time.

1950
02:51:30,020 --> 02:51:32,020
Lyle looks down.

1951
02:51:32,020 --> 02:51:33,020
Get.

1952
02:51:33,020 --> 02:51:35,020
He throws.

1953
02:51:35,020 --> 02:51:37,020
Down foul off to the right again.

1954
02:51:37,020 --> 02:51:40,020
Past Steve Bowes, the first base coach.

1955
02:51:40,020 --> 02:51:42,020
A lot of foul room.

1956
02:51:42,020 --> 02:51:47,020
One on one, Lyle and Nelson.

1957
02:51:47,020 --> 02:51:51,020
The on deck hitters took you real hot.

1958
02:51:54,020 --> 02:51:57,020
Lyle again with another baseball.

1959
02:51:57,020 --> 02:52:00,020
Comes up on top.

1960
02:52:03,020 --> 02:52:05,020
Looks down.

1961
02:52:05,020 --> 02:52:09,020
Plants the cut of tobacco in the left cheek.

1962
02:52:09,020 --> 02:52:12,020
Now time's all by Nelson as Lyle takes too long.

1963
02:52:12,020 --> 02:52:16,020
Baby asks for time and backs out.

1964
02:52:17,020 --> 02:52:20,020
Crowd riding with the Yankees.

1965
02:52:20,020 --> 02:52:25,020
Playing it for all they're worth here at Yankee Stadium 2.

1966
02:52:25,020 --> 02:52:28,020
One ball, two strikes.

1967
02:52:28,020 --> 02:52:30,020
The pause.

1968
02:52:30,020 --> 02:52:31,020
And the pitch.

1969
02:52:31,020 --> 02:52:33,020
Fouled again. What else?

1970
02:52:33,020 --> 02:52:35,020
It's into the first base stand this time.

1971
02:52:35,020 --> 02:52:42,020
Nelson just kicking off those foul balls like the late Nelly Fox used to be able to.

1972
02:52:42,020 --> 02:52:44,020
Luke Apling in the old days.

1973
02:52:44,020 --> 02:52:50,020
Richie Ashburn, guys with your foul balls almost at will.

1974
02:52:50,020 --> 02:52:52,020
One ball, two strikes.

1975
02:52:55,020 --> 02:52:57,020
Lyle looks down again.

1976
02:52:57,020 --> 02:52:58,020
Thread off first.

1977
02:52:58,020 --> 02:53:00,020
Pitch to Nelson.

1978
02:53:00,020 --> 02:53:02,020
Ground ball to shortstop. Stanley up.

1979
02:53:02,020 --> 02:53:03,020
Over to second.

1980
02:53:03,020 --> 02:53:04,020
Game's over.

1981
02:53:04,020 --> 02:53:07,020
Yankees lead two games to one.

1982
02:53:07,020 --> 02:53:11,020
Baby Nelson finally forces a runner, Brett, to short to second.

1983
02:53:11,020 --> 02:53:16,020
And in the ninth inning, for the Royals, no runs, no hits, one left.

1984
02:53:16,020 --> 02:53:19,020
Final score in game three.

1985
02:53:19,020 --> 02:53:34,020
The Yankees 5 the Royals 3.
