00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:16,000
On October 7th, 1967, the Boston Red Sox faced the St. Louis Cardinals at Bush Stadium for Game 3 of the 1967 World Series.

3
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:25,000
The best of seven series was tied at one game apiece, and this is the NBC Radio broadcast of Game 3 featuring announcers Pee-wee Reese and Ken Coleman.

4
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:33,000
He broadcast 14 years for the Cleveland Browns, and he also broadcast 10 years for the Cleveland Indians baseball team.

5
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:38,000
The last two years, he's been with the Boston Red Sox, and he's been the boy for the Red Sox.

6
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,000
Kenny, it's a pleasure to work with you. Come on in here and do the kick.

7
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,000
Okay, Pee-wee, thank you very much.

8
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:55,000
The guy on the right now is taking his warm-up throws and ready to lead off for the Red Sox, a young fellow that the ball player sometimes refers to as Happy Jose.

9
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:07,000
That's Jose Sada-ball, who has a wonderful disposition, a sweet little guy who can really run the bases and very often will punt his way on.

10
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:17,000
He has hit only two home runs during his American League career, which includes 463 games prior to this season.

11
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,000
He's been swinging the ball well lately, though, and has done a good job in right field.

12
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:35,000
Of course, the Red Sox miss very much Tony Canigliaro, who was here with them, but who is not eligible to play in the series after having sustained an injury about six weeks ago.

13
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:46,000
The story on Brials, the St. Louis pitcher, probably the most interesting story on him is what he has done over the last couple of months.

14
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:51,000
He has won nine straight ball games, pitching tremendous baseball.

15
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,000
Tarnable steps in, Mike Shannon, the third baseman, up the line.

16
00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:01,000
The outfield playing a step toward left, although Tarnable is a left-handed batter.

17
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:08,000
Brials gets his sign from MacArthur and delivers. Ground ball out the second off to the right of Seth Javier, close the first-in time.

18
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:14,000
Tarnable hits the first-fifth through the second baseman, and there's one out in the top of the first inning.

19
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:23,000
Javier came up with a tremendous fielding play in game two against Elston Howard, one of the best defensive plays of the series.

20
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Dalton Jones at the plate from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He made 15 hits in his last 30 private sats in the last two weeks of the season.

21
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:39,000
Left-handed hitter takes the fastball low and inside, ball one.

22
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:48,000
On the year, Dalton batted 289. He had three homers, 25 runs batted in. In the series, he is 3-4-9.

23
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Elston Brials throws, the pitch is bowled back, and the count is even at one ball and one strike.

24
00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Brials was 7-3 at home and 7-2 on the road.

25
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:10,000
The outfield playing straightaway for Jones.

26
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:17,000
Right-hander, work, the pitch is one-hundred-miss, going for low-breaking stuff on the inside, one ball and two strikes.

27
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:22,000
Bobby Doerr, one of the all-time great second baseman of the Red Sox, coaching at first base.

28
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:28,000
Eddie Papauci, who has been with the Red Sox organization 30 years, coaching at third.

29
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:32,000
Curveball is one-on-a-miss for Pike Green.

30
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:39,000
Dalton Jones strikes out as Brials gets him with a good high curveball, two out of the box and first.

31
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,000
There's the curveball I was talking about, Penny.

32
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:49,000
Both Nelson Brials and Jerry Bell has a real good overhand curveball, and that's a tough pitch for a left-hander to hit.

33
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,000
Let's see if Carl Yatsenka gets any of those.

34
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:58,000
Carl is 3-4-8 in the World Series, two of the hits being home runs.

35
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,000
They play him deep and toward right.

36
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,000
The pitch hits him.

37
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:10,000
It appeared to hit him on the left leg, and he is going down to first base.

38
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:15,000
He tried to pull back out of the way, and he was hit by Brials' pitch.

39
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:19,000
So Yatsenka becomes the first baseman of the game.

40
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:26,000
The field is bathed in sunshine with the exception of right field where Roger Maris is in the shadows.

41
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,000
With Yatsenka on first now, George Scott comes up.

42
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,000
Scott batted a solid 3-0-3 on the year.

43
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:40,000
Now Dick Williams, the Red Sox manager, has come out and is talking with the plate umpire Frank Humon.

44
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,000
A discussion down on the third base side.

45
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,000
Can I believe, if you remember yesterday or the day before yesterday,

46
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:57,000
the first pick for Jim Lombard, who moved rocks, was kind of high and inside,

47
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:02,000
and Jim Lombard was accused by a few of the Cardinal players that he was dusting them off.

48
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,000
He came a little bit too close.

49
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:08,000
Well, you notice Nelson Brials did not father the first two batters,

50
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:14,000
but when the big one, Carl Gershwin, he came up there, he took him down pretty good.

51
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:20,000
So now then, the umpire behind home plate, he is called, Dick Williams,

52
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:25,000
the manager of the Red Sox out, and Red Chan and Deeds manage the Cardinals,

53
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,000
and they try to tell him, let's not have any of this today.

54
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:34,000
And Red Chan, Deeds, and Barber say, well, look at here, why didn't you say something up in Boston?

55
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:42,000
But that's exactly what they're arguing about, the knockdown pick of Nelson Brials to Carl Gershwin.

56
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:46,000
Okay, and now the two managers go back into their respective dugouts,

57
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,000
and George Scott, big strong right-handed batter steps in.

58
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,000
George in the World Series, three for seven.

59
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,000
Gershwin gets first, two men out.

60
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,000
In the first inning, there is no score.

61
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,000
The outfield is deep and straight away.

62
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,000
Scott has good power to all fields, while Texan throws.

63
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:10,000
Pitch is low and away, gets away from the catcher, throw down a second base, out at second.

64
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:16,000
And George Scott taking the throw as McIver launched the ball momentarily.

65
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:21,000
You trust he took off for a second, but McIver threw it down to Maxfield and they get him.

66
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:29,000
And so after a half inning, the score is the Red Sox nothing and the Cardinals coming to back.

67
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:34,000
Okay, see, we, Elston Howard has just thrown the ball down to second base,

68
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,000
as Bell concludes his warm-up throws,

69
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:42,000
and now the 30-year-old right-hander is getting set to pitch to Lou Brock,

70
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:50,000
who had a tremendous year with the St. Louis Cardinals, batting 299, had 21 homers, and 76 runs batted in.

71
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:56,000
And in the series is 4 for 8. He had four hits in game one.

72
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,000
In game two, of course, the Cardinals had just one hit.

73
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,000
Bell looks into Howard for the time.

74
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:07,000
The outfield, toward right, pitches a breaking ball in for a strike called.

75
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:11,000
On deck is Kurt Klotz, batting third will be Roger Maris.

76
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:19,000
Bell is 6'1", 203 pounds, out of San Antonio, Texas.

77
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,000
Right-hander rocks and fires.

78
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,000
There's a fly ball toward left center.

79
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,000
Yatshvarsky going hard.

80
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,000
Hits pass him in the gap.

81
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,000
Brock around first, against the second.

82
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,000
He might get free around second base.

83
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,000
Petropelli with a relay.

84
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,000
Throw to third base.

85
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:51,000
And a face of the shuttle.

86
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:58,000
Lou Brock has bled off for the St. Louis Cardinals by driving one into the gap in left center field.

87
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:05,000
Right-handed batter joined the opposite way and whacking went through to the wall and winding up at third base.

88
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:10,000
Nobody out in the last half of the first inning and the batter is Kurt Klotz.

89
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:16,000
Right-handed hitting center fielder with an average on the year of 335, 1 for 8 in the World Series.

90
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,000
The infield at this stage is back.

91
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:29,000
A barrel fires and the back volley high, ball one.

92
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,000
Brock gets 12 triples during the season.

93
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:38,000
Pinson led the National League, Beta Pinson, with 13.

94
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:42,000
That's the fifth hit for Lou in the World Series.

95
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,000
Pitch, line drive, base hit into left center field and the first run is home.

96
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:53,000
Pinson singles for Klotz and Brock scores the Cardinals jump run shot quickly, one to nothing.

97
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:59,000
Redd B. Smith flying the ball into second base and very quickly the Cardinals lead.

98
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,000
Kurt Klotz is on first base.

99
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:07,000
Nobody out in the last of the firsts and the batter is Roger Maris.

100
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:15,000
Maris on the season, batter 261, had nine home runs, 55 runs added in.

101
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:24,000
In the World Series he has won for seven, but he drove in both runs for the Cardinals in the first game on infield out.

102
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:34,000
As Brock scored both of them, so Brock now has scored all three runs the Cardinals have in the 67 World Series.

103
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,000
Klotz got a good lead.

104
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:43,000
Bell checks and throws, planted back to the mound, throws out to second for one, back to first for a double play.

105
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:53,000
Gary Bell wasted no time as he turned and threw to Petrocelli covering a second base and Maris has hit into a 1-6-3 double play.

106
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,000
And there are two men out in the last half of the first inning.

107
00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:02,000
St. Louis ahead, one nothing and the applause is for Orlando's Capeta.

108
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:14,000
The Brigadier's Cardinals first baseman battered 325, had 25 home runs and 111 runs added in this season for the St. Louis Cardinals.

109
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:20,000
Capeta has had to fight a late season slump and he's old for seven in the series.

110
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:24,000
Gary Bell throws a fastball down low.

111
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:32,000
Center fielder Reggie Smith playing Capeta a step toward right.

112
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:38,000
Yosemite straight away and deep out in left field.

113
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:45,000
Bell into the windup, right-hander throws, breaking ball inside, two balls, no strikes on Orlando.

114
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:53,000
Cardinals lead one nothing last half of the first inning on what has turned out to be a beautiful day in St. Louis.

115
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:57,000
This is the second World Series for Capeta.

116
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:01,000
There is action now in the Boston bullpen.

117
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,000
Gary Wasgluci is warming up.

118
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:09,000
The pitch is outside 3-0.

119
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:17,000
From our vantage point we cannot see the action in the bullpen, but fortunately we're able to communicate and find out.

120
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:24,000
And Wasgluci, who is up part of the year with a red start, the tall, rangey right-hander is loosening up.

121
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,000
Three balls, no strikes, we count, two outs, nobody on.

122
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:33,000
Bell throws to pay to take the call, strike and it's three and one.

123
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:40,000
Elston Howard working back of the plate, started at first, a dare at second, Ketracelli at short and Jones at third.

124
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:45,000
Yosemite in left field, Smith in center and Tartabull in right.

125
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:50,000
Zippler coaching at first base and Joe Schultz at third for St. Louis.

126
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,000
Here's the three-one pitch to Capeta.

127
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:58,000
It's a high pop-up, back of third, Ketracelli and Jones drifting over to foul territory.

128
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:02,000
Jones makes the catch and the Cardinals are out in the first inning.

129
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:11,000
But they pick up a run and so at the end of one the score in St. Louis won and Boston nothing.

130
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:16,000
They tried to reach second base after McCarver dropped the ball but Tim threw him out.

131
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,000
So here's George back up there again.

132
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:26,000
Nelson Brials throws, down ball, hits the pitcher, goes off to it second, Javier gets it, first to first, and gets it.

133
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:33,000
A brilliant play by Julian Javier on a ball that was deflected back off Nelson Brials,

134
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:39,000
went out to the second base when he had to come in and barehand it and threw on to Capeta for the outs.

135
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,000
It will go one to four to three.

136
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:49,000
Another fine play, the second in the series, reeled off by the Cardinals' second baseman, Julian Javier.

137
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:59,000
Now Nick Williams, the Red Sox manager, is out protesting the call to the first base umpire, Augie Donatelli.

138
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:06,000
It was a close play at first base.

139
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:11,000
One out and nobody on in the second. St. Louis leads one to nothing.

140
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:21,000
Williams walking back over to the Red Sox dugout, which is on the third base side in St. Louis, as Reggie Smith prepares the back.

141
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:28,000
On the season, Smith, who's the quick hitter, batted 249, had 15 almost and 62 runs batted in.

142
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:33,000
He's one for six in the World Series.

143
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:41,000
McCarver working back at the plate, Capeta at first, Javier at second, Max Villachort, and Shannon at third for St. Louis.

144
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:46,000
Here's the pitch. Low and inside gets past McCarver.

145
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,000
Ball one.

146
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:52,000
Brock is in left, Flutt is in center, and Maris in right.

147
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:57,000
McCarver now goes to the mound, wants to talk with Nelson Brials.

148
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:02,000
The official scorers for the World Series, Bob Abbey at the Washington Post,

149
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:11,000
Larry Claflin of the Boston Record American, and Neil Russo of the St. Louis Post dispatch.

150
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:18,000
The lights are on here in St. Louis, although the sun is shining.

151
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Here's the pitch.

152
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:31,000
Smith gets one deep but foul toward right field, putting one out to the upper deck area, as Reggie really came around on the pitch by Nelson Brials.

153
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:35,000
The umpires again, Frank Umont back at the plate,

154
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:42,000
Arki Donatelli of the National League at first, Ed Runge of the American League at second, and Paul Pryor of the National League at third.

155
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,000
Pitch is a ball to Smith, low and inside.

156
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:55,000
Down in the left field corner is John Stevens of the American League, and in right, Al Pollock, the senior umpire in all baseball of the National League.

157
00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:06,000
Two balls, one strike, one out, nobody on second inning, one nothing, St. Louis, the pitch low and inside, three and one.

158
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,000
Nelson Brials was born in Doros, California.

159
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:13,000
He lives in Carmichael, California now.

160
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:23,000
He has the best earned run average on the St. Louis staff this year, 2.44.

161
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,000
Three balls, one strike, the pitch.

162
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:32,000
Strike called on the inside corner at the belt, full count.

163
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:46,000
Brials worked 155 in the third inning, so he failed to reach the minimum 162 required to qualify for the earned run ratings.

164
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:50,000
Stocky right-hander takes a deep breath out on the mound, gets his sign and throws.

165
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:54,000
There's our little blooper that is grabbed by Shannon.

166
00:15:54,000 --> 00:16:05,000
The third baseman, Mike Shannon, leaping to his left, came down with a little blooper off the bat of Reggie Smith, a very fine defensive play by the Cardinal third baseman.

167
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:15,000
In Axl, the shortstop was also going over toward the hole on the play, trying to back Mike up, but he leaped high in the air and brought it down.

168
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:20,000
So there are two men out, nobody on in the second, as Jerry Adair steps in.

169
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:26,000
He's had a 266 on the year, 2 for 8 in the World Series.

170
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:31,000
Right-handed batter takes the ball that goes in the dirt and goes past McIver.

171
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:35,000
Ball one.

172
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,000
Frank Humont, dusting off home plate.

173
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:47,000
Adair, an Oklahoman, did an outstanding job with Boston after coming over from the White Sox this year.

174
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:55,000
His average for the season, as I mentioned, was 266, but for the Red Sox, in 89 games, he hit 292.

175
00:16:55,000 --> 00:17:01,000
Here's the pitch, curveball low and outside, ball two.

176
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:10,000
Adair ended the year with an eight-game hitting streak and a 3.51 average during that stretch.

177
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,000
Outfield playing them straight away.

178
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,000
Jerry hits the center and right a lot.

179
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,000
This time, he grounds the first.

180
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:22,000
Shannon has it, throws the sapeta, and the Red Sox are out in order in the second.

181
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:30,000
No runs, no hits, and nobody left on after one and a half for Gore, St. Louis one, and Boston nothing.

182
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:36,000
Then hit into a double play, and Coteda fouled out to the third baseman, Dalton Jones.

183
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:42,000
So here in the second with the cards leading 1-0, the batter is Tim McCarver, the catcher.

184
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:47,000
McCarver batting 295 this season is 0-4-6 in the World Series.

185
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:51,000
He is a left-handed batter with very good speed for a catcher.

186
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:56,000
Pitch to Tim is a quite tall.

187
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:02,000
McCarver was the batting leader in the 1964 World Series hitting 478.

188
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:06,000
Got at least one hit in each of the seven games.

189
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:10,000
Shannon is on deck, and Javier will be up third.

190
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,000
He uses a closed stance, crouches at the plate.

191
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:17,000
Bell throws a strike called on the outside corner.

192
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:24,000
McCarver turns and questions Husky, Frank, and Mark.

193
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:32,000
Strike to count on McCarver.

194
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:37,000
Bell looks into Elston Howard for the time.

195
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,000
Right-hander into action, the pitch, half ball outside.

196
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:46,000
One ball and two strikes.

197
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:59,000
St. Louis leading by a score of 1-0 as we start the last half of the second inning.

198
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:00,000
Bell into action.

199
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,000
The right-hander throws.

200
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:05,000
McCarver checks the swing and takes the ball.

201
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:09,000
Tim had a notion but held back on it.

202
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:18,000
Bell over the years has averaged 6.4 strikeouts per nine innings during his American League career.

203
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,000
Average just over six this year.

204
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:25,000
He's been used as a starter and a reliever with Cleveland.

205
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:26,000
Jerry delivers.

206
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:33,000
There's a shot, ground ball through into center field for the base hit, and McCarver takes a big turn and holds it first.

207
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,000
Tim McCarver leading off the second inning for St. Louis.

208
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:46,000
Bill's a single. Petracelli went to his left to try to make a play, but there was no chance for Rico as the ball went past him into center field.

209
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,000
So the lead man is on for the Cardinals in the second.

210
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:54,000
They lead 1-0 and Mike Shannon, right-handed batting third baseman, comes up.

211
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:58,000
That was the first hit for McCarver in the World Series.

212
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:04,000
Shannon is 2-7 in series competition this year.

213
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,000
He's got a good pitch to him.

214
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,000
Drive deep toward left field.

215
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:09,000
This is back.

216
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:31,000
It is gone for a home run.

217
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:41,000
Mike Shannon has hit a home run deep to left field going into the lower section, but well back.

218
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:47,000
And the Cardinals lead by a score of 3-0 as McCarver scores ahead of him.

219
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:51,000
And the batter now is Julianne Javier.

220
00:20:51,000 --> 00:21:00,000
The second baseman is batting 2-81, or did on a year, and in the World Series he's 3-7.

221
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,000
He's done quite a job in the field.

222
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,000
The pitch to him, line drive, they hit into left center field.

223
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,000
Jocerski cuts it off and throws it in for a second.

224
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:13,000
Here's the runner coming, and he is out at second base.

225
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:19,000
As Jocerski, who has a great throwing arm, fires it into Adair to get him.

226
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,000
Javier gets threaded for a single.

227
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:29,000
Jocerski going high to his left, picks up the ball and fire a strike into Adair, and there is one man out.

228
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:36,000
Howard, the catcher, goes to the mound to talk the bell.

229
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:50,000
Shannon was the St. Louis right fielder in the 64th series, and he had a 450-foot home run in the first game against Whitey Ford.

230
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:55,000
The batter is Sal Maxfield now, one man out.

231
00:21:55,000 --> 00:22:00,000
The side knows two runs on five hits.

232
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:04,000
Three runs on five hits.

233
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:05,000
Have a three-nothing yet.

234
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:11,000
The first pitch is fouled off the end of the bat, strike one.

235
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:16,000
This is the last half of the second inning, there is one out.

236
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:23,000
Three-five and all for St. Louis, nothing yet for Boston.

237
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:33,000
The play fell, kicks and throws, there is a high clock foul off first that is lifting out of play behind the St. Louis tuck-out.

238
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,000
Two strikes on Maxfield.

239
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,000
The owl is all for four at the plate in the World Series.

240
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:53,000
The batter, 237 on the year, but drove in 41 runs, which was a new personal high for the quick-fielding side, no shortstop.

241
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,000
Two strikes in.

242
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:01,000
Bell fires a tight call on the outside corner of the knees.

243
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,000
Maxfield knew it and quietly leaves.

244
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:11,000
That's the first strike out for Gary Bell and there are two men out in the second.

245
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:15,000
Nelson Brile gets a nice hand as he comes to the plate.

246
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:27,000
As the batter, he's batted 150 during the year, no homers and no runs batted in.

247
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,000
Young Pover sent only one year in the minors.

248
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:38,000
The pitch to him is hit on the ground for a second, a dear hazard, closed the stop for the out and that's all for St. Louis in the second.

249
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:46,000
But they have picked up two more runs and at the end of two to score, St. Louis three and Boston nothing.

250
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:53,000
Rico Petrucelli leads off, that is 259 on the year, he's one for five in the World Series.

251
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,000
Nelson Brile gets the sign from Tim McArthur.

252
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:02,000
The right-handed throw, there's a high fly ball in the left field, fairly deep.

253
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:06,000
Brock backing up though, has room and makes the catch for our number one.

254
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:19,000
Petrucelli flies to Brock and left, one out in the third, St. Louis leading three to nothing.

255
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:33,000
Elston Howard is at the plate now and on deck is George Thomas who will bat for Gary Barrell so Dick Williams has decided to go to his bullpen.

256
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:38,000
Howard, 0 for 3 in the World Series, this is his 10th World Series.

257
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:48,000
Pitch to Elston is a quite called on the outside corner at the knees.

258
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,000
In the third inning, St. Louis leads three nothing.

259
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,000
That shot's up with one out and nobody on.

260
00:24:54,000 --> 00:25:07,000
Third ball is blown outside and the count is one and one.

261
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:12,000
Howard hits the ball to right center field a lot and Flood is playing them accordingly.

262
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:16,000
Pitch to Elie is taken away, ball two and one strike.

263
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:29,000
Howard has helped the Red Sox young pitching staff a great deal since coming over from the New York Nancies.

264
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:41,000
Brials gets the sign, right-handed throw, shot down ball, pass to Pater going down to the right field corner and Howard is on with a single as Maritz fires the ball into second.

265
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:54,000
That's a one out with one out on the Boston third. Elston Howard gets the first Red Sox field of the ball game and now George Thomas is up to bat for Gary Barrell.

266
00:25:54,000 --> 00:26:07,000
Thomas, a right-handed batter who's been around some and has been with the Red Sox the past two years as a utility performer, average this year up to 13.

267
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:18,000
Nelson Brials getting ready to work to Thomas.

268
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:23,000
Howard taking a very cautious lead away from first base.

269
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:28,000
The pitch is outside, ball one.

270
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:33,000
Thomas attends Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan in the offseason.

271
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:42,000
But he was born and brought up in Bloomington, Minnesota, the home of the twins.

272
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:52,000
Brials at the belt, right-handed throw as Thomas fouls it back, the count is one and one.

273
00:26:52,000 --> 00:27:04,000
Gary Wartblusey continues to warm up out on the Boston bullpen, young man who won 19 ball games for Toronto last year.

274
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:11,000
Paul Wenge Tinkerball, regular.

275
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:28,000
St. Louis three, Boston nothing, one out, one on, and the Red Sox third. McCarver out a couple of steps and honoring something through his pitcher Brials and now Kim comes back at the plate and gets in the crouch.

276
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:43,000
Start moving over a little bit to a straightaway center from left center out there in center field.

277
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:59,000
Again for Lake Cooners Inn it's turned out to be a very nice day in St. Louis after a rainy, misty, foggy morning. The lights are on, but they don't really have to be.

278
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:08,000
One ball and two strikes to count. We may get rain later in the day, but it's supposed to clear tomorrow.

279
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:21,000
The one-two delivery, nice stop by McCarver, no advance by Howard as the ball was low and outside and Kim made a backhanded stab and prevented it from going by.

280
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:34,000
McCarver working back at the plate. Capeta at first, Javier at second, Max Miller shortstop, and Shannon at third, Rockridge in left, Plotton center, and Marik in right for St. Louis.

281
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:43,000
Two balls, two strikes to count for George Thomas. Jose Tardibol is on deck.

282
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:51,000
Brials, kicked off a time. The right-hander is working a little more deliberately now.

283
00:28:51,000 --> 00:29:03,000
The pitch, low and outside, three and two on Thomas. One out, one on on the Boston third. Cardinals lead three to nothing.

284
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:19,000
Brials, who has picked up one in the first inning, when Brock tripled and Plot tingled him in, and in the second, Shannon had it to run Homer.

285
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:29,000
Brials goes to the belt. The pause and the pitch. One on it, and strike three. George Thomas strikes out.

286
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:36,000
The strikeout for Brials, and there are two men out with Howard on first in the third.

287
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:46,000
Jose Tardibol is at the plate. Red Sox right fielder, grounded out the second base in the first inning.

288
00:29:46,000 --> 00:30:00,000
Cepeda holding against Howard at first. Tardibol hits the ball to all fields, a spraig-type hitter. Here's the set.

289
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:08,000
The pitch. There's a fly ball into right center field. Fluts coming hard, makes a flying running catch.

290
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:16,000
Third floor makes a splendid running catch. Tardibol fly ball. The Red Sox are down on the third. No runs, one hit, one left.

291
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:24,000
And so after two and one half, it is St. Louis three and Boston nothing.

292
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:30,000
Wasblouki throws a fastball at the knee for a strike call.

293
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:42,000
Three years on, Wasblouki can be very tough, and especially because of his easy motion, he's a hard man to have him at the beginning.

294
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:51,000
Flut is on deck. Marath will bat third. Pitch changeup is flutted foul, and it's strike two on the speecher Lou Brock,

295
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:59,000
who led the National League in stolen bases for the third year in a row, with 52 this year in 70 attempts.

296
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:12,000
Wasblou is playing in his second World Series. He hit 300 in 1964, and many fans and many experts have predicted he would be one of the heroes of this one.

297
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:19,000
Pitch is high to him for the ball, one and two.

298
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:25,000
Brock hit more home runs in this ballpark than any other Cardinals, 13.

299
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:31,000
Wasblouki with a big sweeping motion throws a fastball that swung on a miss, and Brock strikes out.

300
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:36,000
That's the second strikeout for Boston's pitching, as Gary Bell had won.

301
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:43,000
Bell worked a total of two innings, allowed five hits and two runs, and had one strikeout.

302
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:47,000
One out in the last half of the third inning, and Kurt Flut is up.

303
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:53,000
He drove in the first St. Louis run in the first inning with his sharp singular center sending home Brock.

304
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:57,000
Wasblouki throws, there's a ground ball to second aid, they are in and up with it.

305
00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:01,000
Easy play for him, and he throws, cut out at first base.

306
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:06,000
Two out in the third. Roger Maris now.

307
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:18,000
Roger hit into a 1-6-3 double play in the first inning, bouncing one back to Bell, who threw to Petrocelli covering second, and then they pulled the double play at first.

308
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:23,000
St. Louis three, Boston nothing, threw out nobody on last half of inning three.

309
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:31,000
Second baseman Jerry Adair stepped back on the grass, the outfield playing Maris to pull, and the pitch.

310
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:39,000
Fastball tails away, ball one.

311
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:43,000
Third base coach Joe Schultz, hollering and terrorist minion to Maris.

312
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:49,000
Wasblouki fires, pitches a checked swing foul back to the screen one and one.

313
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:57,000
3.30 down the lines in left and right field, 386 to straightaway left and right.

314
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:03,000
4.14 to dead center.

315
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:07,000
One ball, one strike to Roger Maris.

316
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:11,000
Wasblouki throws, breaking ball low and inside.

317
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:16,000
Two and one.

318
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:23,000
Elston Howard checking for Boston with Scott at first, Adair at second, Petrocelli at short, and Dalton Jones at third.

319
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:27,000
Here's Sremski and Smiths and Cardabole from left to right in the outfield.

320
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:36,000
High fly ball into right center field, Smiths and Cardabole converging, and it is Cardabole who makes the catch, retiring the side.

321
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:44,000
The signals go in order, no runs, no hits, nobody left on at the end of three, St. Louis three, and Boston nothing.

322
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:48,000
Dalton Jones, draw for Boston, knee-cluck out swinging in the first inning.

323
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:53,000
One of two men has been a strikeout victim with the hands of Nelson Brile.

324
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:59,000
Right-handed throws a curve that's chopped foul off the first-base tight on the ground, strike one.

325
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:08,000
Jones does not strike out very often. He is now three for ten in this World Series.

326
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:14,000
Here's Sremski on deck and Scott will follow, St. Louis leading three-nothing.

327
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:22,000
Brile at the beginning of this year was the long reliever for the St. Louis staff, and what a job he's done since he's become a starter.

328
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:27,000
There's a curve ball lined into left field, it's dropping in for a base hit in front of Luke Rock,

329
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:33,000
and Dalton Jones leads off the Boston fourth inning with their second hit, a single.

330
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:38,000
Runner at first base and nobody out, and the batter is Sremski.

331
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:50,000
Sremski was hit by a pitch in the first inning as Brile hit him with a low inside delivery.

332
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:58,000
Carl three for eight in the World Series, including a couple of home runs, and he now has two assists in the series in left field

333
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:05,000
and has made a couple of brilliant plays in the field.

334
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:12,000
Brile's at the belt, the pitch, you're seeing, fouls it back to the screen, strike one.

335
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:17,000
Yes, he took that savage touch that he's employed all season long.

336
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:28,000
Two-time American League batting champion, won it in 1963 and again in 1967,

337
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:37,000
but in a much more up-parachuted way this year with a 44 home run, and he led the league and runs that it in.

338
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:46,000
Brile's ready, right-handed throw, just shrunk, he looks at a curve inside, and the count goes to one ball and one strike.

339
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:58,000
Dalton Jones at first, nobody out rather in the fourth inning, St. Louis with a three to nothing lead.

340
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:07,000
With Sremski up, Sateta, although playing close, is not right at the bag on Jones.

341
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:15,000
Brile throws the first and almost threw it away, and Sateta leaps up and pulled it down.

342
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:24,000
Orlando was not at the bag, Brile's, well, he must have known that Sateta wasn't because he sure he had to glance before he threw.

343
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:30,000
But then he kind of just threw a high lob and Sateta jumped up and took it down.

344
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:36,000
Well, I'm sure I saw Sateta going and say something to Brile, so evidently he told he's going to plan back of him.

345
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:41,000
Dalton Jones is not too fast afoot, he's trading by three runs,

346
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:47,000
it don't look like he'll be feeling so he's planning back of him, but sometimes a pitcher just forgets about that,

347
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:52,000
and the best thing and the only thing you can do, once you make that move, you have to release the ball,

348
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:57,000
he just gave it a little basketball talk about it, keeping from balling.

349
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:02,000
The count is one and one to Sremski.

350
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:05,000
Brile gets the sign from McArthur, right-hander ready.

351
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:13,000
The pitch, he has hit the ground ball to second, Javier clips to second for one, back to first, double play.

352
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:19,000
Four to six to three, Javier to Maxfield as Sateta, and there are two men out on the Boston court,

353
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:23,000
there's Todd Sremski, bangs into a double play.

354
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:30,000
One of the amazing things about Sremski this year was his consistency.

355
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:36,000
His monthly home run totals, April of course is a short month in baseball, he had two in April,

356
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:43,000
and then eight, eight, eight, nine, and nine over the following five months of the year.

357
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:51,000
George Scott is up now, the pitch to George is grounded foul down the third base side, strike one.

358
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:58,000
Scott hit the ball well his first time, hard off Brile, and as it deflected off the pitcher,

359
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:07,000
Javier came in and made a very good play in grabbing the ball bare-handed and throwing Scott out.

360
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:19,000
One strike to count on the big Boston first baseman, two men out on the fourth, St. Louis ahead, three to nothing.

361
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:27,000
Here's the pitch, Scott swings and fouls it back off Newmont's protector, strike two.

362
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:34,000
Frank who used to play football for the New York Giants, jumped around a little on that one.

363
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:47,000
Two men out, nobody on on the fourth, two strikes to count on Scott, St. Louis three and the Red Sox nothing.

364
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:54,000
The pitch, in the dirt, stopped by McArthur.

365
00:38:54,000 --> 00:39:05,000
Brile has not watched anybody, but he has been wild low a number of times and McAvoy has come up with some pretty good saves.

366
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:09,000
He's been wild low with his breaking stuff.

367
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:16,000
One ball and two strikes on Scott.

368
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:21,000
Here's the pitch, one on a net, strike three, one that's for a low outside pitch.

369
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,000
And that is all for Scott and the Red Sox in the fourth.

370
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:33,000
No runs, one hit and nobody left on, so after three and one-half the score is St. Louis three and Boston nothing.

371
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:42,000
The Pater fouled out the third baseman, Dolvin Jones in the first inning.

372
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:50,000
While Glukey throws, there's a high foul coming back out of reach.

373
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:57,000
Two strikes to count on Cepeda. Tim McCarver is on deck and Cannon will be up third.

374
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:03,000
This is the last of the fourth, Cepeda's leading it off, the Cardinals have a three-nothing lead.

375
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:07,000
The pitch is one on a miss, strike three.

376
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:12,000
Cepeda is out and he's now 0 for 9 in the World Series.

377
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:21,000
Second strikeout for Gary Wazlukey and it brings up Tim McCarver who broke the ice for himself in the second inning

378
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:34,000
as he left the inning off with a single and scored the second St. Louis run coming home ahead of Shannon when Mike Olmert.

379
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:44,000
St. Howard sends the sign out, Wazlukey throws and the pitch is low and inside, ball one.

380
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:58,000
The.478 average that McCarver had in the 64th series was the best by a National League player since Pepper Martin's 500 in 1931.

381
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:08,000
Wazlukey winds and throws, McCarver checks the swing and takes the ball outside, ball two.

382
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:13,000
McCarver a left-handed batter, as we mentioned earlier he has very good speed.

383
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:24,000
He led National League catchers in stealing in 1967 with a total of eight.

384
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:34,000
Here's the two-nothing pitch, high foul lifting out of play into the lower key shot third.

385
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,000
Two balls, one strike.

386
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:42,000
Working behind the plate, Frank Humont of the American League, Augie Donatelli of the National League at first base,

387
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:47,000
Ed Runge of the American League at second and Paul Prior of the National League at third,

388
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:55,000
John Stevens of the American League down for Buckfield Line and Al Pollock of the National in right.

389
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:59,000
The two-one pitch, McCarver hits the ground ball, shot to his right and with it,

390
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:06,000
flips underhand to Wazlukey for the out. McCarver bounces out three-one, two down on the Cardinal fourth.

391
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:10,000
St. Louis leads three-nothing.

392
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:26,000
Here is Mike Shannon who in the second inning hit a home run to Buckfield to put the cards out three-nothing.

393
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:31,000
They had had a one-to-nothing lead and he hits the two-run homer in the second.

394
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:39,000
Wazlukey now has picked the five men, has retired all of them.

395
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:43,000
Paul Dean Reichmander looks into Howard for the time.

396
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:49,000
The pitch, hit on the ground toward short, Petracelli to his right, up with it, throws to Scott for the out

397
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:52,000
and the Cardinals go in order in the fourth inning.

398
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:58,000
No runs, no hits and nobody left on so at the end of four it is St. Louis three-boss and nothing.

399
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,000
Okay, thank you very much.

400
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:06,000
Smith pops up to the third baseman, Shannon in the second as Mike made a very good play on a little looper.

401
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:09,000
He had to go back and do his left on.

402
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:18,000
Nelson Biles on the mound, right-hander fires a fastball low and inside, ball one.

403
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:24,000
Smith will be followed by Jerry Ager and then Rico Petracelli will be up third.

404
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:31,000
St. Louis with a three-to-nothing lead, gets one on the first and two in the second.

405
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:41,000
The pitch to Smith is cowl back out of play off the third base side and back of the red star dugout, one and one.

406
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:56,000
Smith is a twitch hitter and from the left side uses a closed stance and from the right side he opens up them.

407
00:43:56,000 --> 00:44:03,000
Smith is outfield playing reggie straight away. Here's the pitch to him, curveball lined in the right field, it's a base hit.

408
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:12,000
Maris started to charge it but saw that he had no chance and Smith leads off the Boston fifth with a strong single in the right.

409
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:18,000
Roger started. Maris is a very fine defensive outfielder.

410
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:24,000
There have been times in his major league career when that's been overlooked because of his power.

411
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:34,000
Now time is called by third base umpire Paul Pryor for just a moment but we're ready to go again.

412
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:41,000
As Ager steps in, the second inning in a row, the reds aren't going to have the first man on

413
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:46,000
but they have not been able to solve files in the scoring department.

414
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:55,000
Smith at first, nobody out on the fifth. Crowder first, red news act safely.

415
00:44:55,000 --> 00:45:01,000
Bobby Dore keeping a close eye on the red star center fielder to pay the holding at the back against him.

416
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:05,000
Here's the pitch, late foul back upstairs.

417
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:16,000
Ager rounded out the cannon at third base in the second. Streg Lewis leads Boston by a score of three to nothing.

418
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:32,000
Three five and all for the Cardinals, zero three and all for the Red Sox.

419
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:39,000
Nelson Pryor is ready to work. Third ball is popped up down toward first base.

420
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:47,000
The tater coming in and right in front of the bag, about ten feet in front of it, just in fair territory, takes the pop by Ager.

421
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:55,000
So there's one out in the fifth inning for the Red Sox and the batter will be the shortstop Rico Petracelli.

422
00:45:55,000 --> 00:46:00,000
Rico flied the left field in the third inning.

423
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:04,000
The Red Sox's color has shown steady improvement.

424
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:13,000
The RBI totals in the last year have gone from 33 and 65 to 59 and 66 up to 65 this year.

425
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:17,000
And he was the shortstop in the all-star game.

426
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,000
Here's the tech.

427
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:23,000
This is a terrible very poor strike call.

428
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:30,000
Petracelli in a cabin means little rock and that is what Petracelli has been in the Boston infield.

429
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:35,000
He's been a very steady influence with the glove.

430
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,000
One out, one on in the fifth.

431
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:41,000
Here's the tech.

432
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:51,000
Blyle throws Rico's wings at Mr. Cracut.

433
00:46:51,000 --> 00:47:00,000
Petracelli had a very good finish last year and again this season.

434
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:08,000
Comes from Brooklyn, New York.

435
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:13,000
Blyle's taking a little extra time now.

436
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:14,000
Here's the pitch.

437
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:17,000
There's a check, wing, fly ball into short center field.

438
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:23,000
Rico's flood's dancing, he's got it, throw to first base, Smith gets back in time.

439
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:27,000
This flood, who can fly, just did.

440
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:31,000
He came racing in on a fly ball by Petracelli.

441
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:37,000
Rico is trying to hold back on his wing and the speedy center fielder cracked it down.

442
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:43,000
Two men out, Smith on first base in the fifth inning, same blue as they had to three to nothing.

443
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:48,000
Elston Howard at the plus.

444
00:47:48,000 --> 00:48:02,000
Howard single the right field in the third as one of the three Boston hits.

445
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:09,000
Here's the pitch, low and outside, ball one.

446
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:25,000
Howard has the thrill of hitting his home run and his first time at bat in the World Series in 1955 against John Newcomb at Yankee Stadium.

447
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:32,000
Smith leading away from first, Blyle throws, Howard swings and misses on a high fastball, one and one.

448
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:44,000
In the second game of the 1960 World Series, Howard tied a record by making two hits and one inning, a triple and a single at Pittsburgh.

449
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:50,000
This is his 50th series game.

450
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:59,000
One ball, one strike, two out, Smith at first base, St. Louis leading three nothing.

451
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:20,000
Right-hander Nelson Blyle throws, the pitch is foul back up on the swing.

452
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:28,000
Blyle's getting a new baseball.

453
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:37,000
Here's Peta holding against Smith down at first base.

454
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:42,000
Now the right-hander of the Cardinals gets ready.

455
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:47,000
The one-two pitch to Howard, strike's all on the outside corner, he got it.

456
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:49,000
The Red Sox are out in the fifth inning.

457
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:53,000
For Boston, no runs, they had one base hit and lead one.

458
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:57,000
After four and one-half, St. Louis leads three to nothing.

459
00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:00,000
We'll see all about it.

460
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:03,000
Okay, Pee-wee, thank you very much.

461
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:08,000
Pooley and Javier is going to be beating off against Jerry Wasblewski who's been very effective.

462
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:11,000
He's hit six men and retired all of them.

463
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:20,000
If Howard hadn't had a base hit, he probably would not be in there now because the Red Sox are trying to catch the Cardinals who have a three-nothing lead

464
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:26,000
and Dick Williams naturally would have gone to a ten-kitter in this particular situation.

465
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:30,000
Pee-wee and Javier has had quite a year for himself.

466
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:34,000
He improved his average 53 points in 1967.

467
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:42,000
He had a single to left field in the second, so he is four for eight in the series at the plate and has done quite a job in the field.

468
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:53,000
Take the fastball on the outside corner for his strike call.

469
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:59,000
The Red Sox over the course of the season have shown quite an ability to fight back in the late stages,

470
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:03,000
but so too have the Cardinals in winning the National League flag.

471
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:07,000
A pitch is swung on a nurse as he went out ahead of a breaking pitch.

472
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:11,000
Two strikes on Javier.

473
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:19,000
Maxfield is on deck.

474
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:23,000
Yaciel playing straight away.

475
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:39,000
Wazlouki delivers. Pitch is high and the count is one and two.

476
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:48,000
Wazlouki is tall, being right-handed. They're a very quiet fellow.

477
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:56,000
He winds and throws. Curveball is low and outside. Two balls, two strikes to count.

478
00:51:56,000 --> 00:52:01,000
St. Louis with a three-to-nothing lead as we play in the last half of the fifth inning.

479
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:17,000
A church-sleeved crowd at Bush Memorial Stadium watching the Red Sox and the Cardinals in the third game of the 1967 World Series.

480
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:24,000
Here's the pitch. Swung on a nurse. Strike three. Javier going for a thinking fastball.

481
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:31,000
And that is the third strikeout for Wazlouki. There is one out in the fifth. And the batter is Maxfield.

482
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:35,000
Dale was called out on strikes in the second inning.

483
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:41,000
If he joined us late in the first game, Brock led off with a triple. Clark singled him home.

484
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:46,000
In the second, McIver led off with a single. Shannon hit a two-run homer.

485
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:51,000
Here's the foul back out of play. Strike one.

486
00:52:51,000 --> 00:53:08,000
And that's been all in the scoring department as the Cardinals have three runs on five hits, the Red Sox no runs on three hits.

487
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:13,000
The outfield plays Maxfield a little bit toward right.

488
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:25,000
And the curve that swung on a miss. Strike two.

489
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:29,000
On deck is the pitcher Nelson Braille.

490
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:33,000
Wazlouki throws. Third ball hit into Wrightfield.

491
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:36,000
Pradovold going over. Smith right alongside him.

492
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:49,000
Wazlouki makes the catch for the out. Two down on the st. Louis fifth inning. Three nothing. The Cardinals lead and Nelson Braille is coming up.

493
00:53:49,000 --> 00:54:00,000
Twenty-four-year-old right-hander has done quite a job here this afternoon against the team that led the American League in batting this year, the Boston Red Sox.

494
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:07,000
He has not really been in any serious difficulty and he's resting on a three-run lead.

495
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:11,000
Grounded the second his first time. Swings it to clore over to Petrocelli.

496
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:16,000
Riegel throws over to Scott and that's it in the fifth as the Cardinals are out in order.

497
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:22,000
Nine men in a row for Wazlouki. No runs, no hits and nobody left on.

498
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:30,000
And so as we reach the end of five the score is the Red Sox or St. Louis three and the Red Sox nothing.

499
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:54,000
The Cardinals scored one run in the first inning. As Brock opened the game up with a simple curve, Clark came right back with singles. In the second inning they scored two runs. McArthur singles. Mike Cannon hit a home run in the left field seat.

500
00:54:54,000 --> 00:55:03,000
But the runs and that's where the score is right now. The Cardinals three and the Red Sox nothing was going in the top half for six innings.

501
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:12,000
And Jerry Wazlouki hits the white of all games. And release of Gary Bell retired nine men in a row.

502
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:16,000
Talking about picking great ball, Nelson Brow first pitch.

503
00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:27,000
Mike Andrews makes it out of the third field. Mike Andrews picked at him. Of course, Gary Wazlouki. And the Red Sox have something started here in the top half for six innings.

504
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:35,000
And the Red Sox fans have not had much to see about today as it's been Nelson Brow's all the way.

505
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:42,000
And he's only given up three hits until that hit right there by Mike Andrews leading off in the sixth inning here.

506
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:53,000
Jose Cardoborle, middle left headed batter with a runner on his first base. Nelson Brow comes back, checks his runner over his first base.

507
00:55:53,000 --> 00:56:02,000
The pitch. Cardoborle bunch one right back to Brow. He may have had a chance to go to second. He likely to go to Cepeda's first base.

508
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:16,000
And Andrews goes down to second, I believe. And Brow should have got the man to second, but with the score clean and arping, he wanted to take no chance.

509
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:24,000
Winding up on the Red Sox. It looks like he'll be the new pitcher, Lee Stank.

510
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:34,000
Left a right hander. Had a real prime year for the Red Sox. And the hitter. Here's the fellow that looks real good.

511
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:42,000
A lot of part of the season for the Red Sox when they had that tough battle to win the American League tennis.

512
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:52,000
Got himself a base hit today. His name is Dalton Jones. Nelson Brow looking down to his catcher Tim McCarver.

513
00:56:52,000 --> 00:57:10,000
And Andrews to second with his hit. Inside, ball one. Dalton Jones hits.407 from August the 19th with 24 hits and 59 at bat.

514
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:24,000
Rating his average from.220 up to.289. So you can see when he got real hot when they needed him. Dalton Jones. Nelson Brow pitches in there for a strike one.

515
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:34,000
One ball and one strike on Dalton Jones. Jones will be followed by none other than Superman, Batman, Carson.

516
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:44,000
All rolled up in one. Carl Yosemite. And he's made a believer out of me. He's quite a ball player. He doesn't beat to the bat.

517
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:58,000
He'll beat to the field. Strong arm. Dalton Jones. Pitches. Back ball. Just got that outstretched corner. One ball and two strikes.

518
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:08,000
What's been about Carl Yosemite? After he finished the game last Sunday with four hits. Four for four. I went up to Carl.

519
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:19,000
I said, Carl, I heard these players call you Superman. I'll have to agree with them. Quite a player.

520
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:28,000
One ball, two strikes. Nelson Bower is taking a little more time out there. Check these runners. Here's the pitch. Ball hit out of the right field.

521
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:37,000
It's a base hit. Roger Myers coming in. Will Andrews score? Here comes the goal. He'll make it easily as it throws a little bit off the right.

522
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:50,000
And the Red Sox break the ice here. They now trail by a score of three to one as Dalton Jones gets a line drive single out in right field.

523
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:58,000
His second hit of the day. Dalton Jones did not go down to second base on that throw.

524
00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:12,000
And he was way better. Cepeda makes that ball out if he did. So he's on his first base with one away and Carl Yosemite is ahead.

525
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:22,000
Yosemite hits by a pitch. His first time up and grounded into a double play. Four sixes to three his last time up.

526
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:29,000
Three to one the Cardinals over the Red Sox when the top half is the center. Yosemite holds that bat high.

527
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:38,000
Browse takes on curveball in there. Carl tries one. This is what Ken and I were talking about.

528
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:47,000
That Nelson Browse has that real good overhand curveball. And it's a touch hit for a left-hander hit to hit.

529
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:55,000
They thought that they may throw Yosemite a few at all today and try to keep that fastball right away from him.

530
00:59:55,000 --> 01:00:05,000
This is a big ball part. If he gets a hold of it, he'll hit him out of any part. That includes Yellowstone.

531
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:12,000
There's the ball. Four long. No contact.

532
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:24,000
Browse has something on that one. Strike two on it. On his first base, Dalton Jones. One away. Carl Yosemite.

533
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:35,000
It's a hitter. No balls, two strikes. Let's see what Nelson Browse was so turned in in this situation.

534
01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:43,000
Yosemite fouls the plate a little bit more. He gets that bat high in the air.

535
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:53,000
Dalton Browse keeps that. Looks over to runners first. Here's the pitch. Foul off the left.

536
01:00:53,000 --> 01:01:01,000
It's a good fastball. Yosemite may have been looking for that curveball.

537
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:05,000
Looks at the top center of the room. Looks for a curveball with two strikes on it.

538
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:16,000
The fastball was by. Three runs for the Cardinals on five hits. One run on five hits for the Red Sox.

539
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:24,000
We're in the top half of the sixth inning. Here at Foote Stadium in Stantford, Missouri.

540
01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:33,000
The third game of the World Series. One game a piece. Yosemite takes the fastball outside low.

541
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:40,000
One and two.

542
01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:55,000
And the on deck circle. Dalton Browse. It's quite a job for the Cardinals after Bob Gibson got hurt.

543
01:01:55,000 --> 01:02:01,000
They thought they had lost the pennant. This young subbuck came right in and took over.

544
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:04,000
One and two pitch. Curveball down out to Javier.

545
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:12,000
Hooked it up. Hooked the ball over to Capeta. To retire and Stretche. But moved it down to second base.

546
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:16,000
Dalton Jones.

547
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:23,000
Well this inning started out by Mike Andrews batting for Jay Wajruski.

548
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:37,000
He's got a base hit. Cardinals. Sacrified. Jones got a base hit.

549
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:45,000
Now Wajruski just rounded out and Jones moved to second. It flew away.

550
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:55,000
Jardis a hitter. Jardis Stutz. What has he done?

551
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:59,000
He's over two. He rounded out his first time.

552
01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:10,000
And sucked out his last time. A curveball and a bandy. In there. Strike one.

553
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:20,000
George Scott. They call him Tater. That's what he calls a home run.

554
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:29,000
In his last 50 games, from August 13 on, he has three-thirty-two.

555
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:32,000
Curveball. One-on.

556
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:41,000
Two strikes on George Scott. Nelson Brow.

557
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:47,000
He doesn't take much of a windup. That's not too many the Cardinals' players do.

558
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:55,000
I think they were taught by Billie Marcus. They don't take anything windup. They come set.

559
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:59,000
Let it go. That's what Nelson Brow is doing. That's what he's doing right now.

560
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:02,000
Here's the pitch. Curveball. Hit out to the shortstop.

561
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:06,000
Maxwell up with the ball. Over to Tater. That's all for George Scott.

562
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:10,000
That's all for the Red Sox, dear. The top half is six-fitting.

563
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:19,000
They came up with one run on two hits. No errors. And one man left on base.

564
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:23,000
With the four-actors. It's the Cardinals' three and the Red Sox one.

565
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:30,000
Ready to tell you about it. Might have had to hit me. But one down to third base. That's no fair. No one will get it.

566
01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:33,000
But it's low foul.

567
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:43,000
Mason first pitch. That's Lady Lou Brock. That would have saved them no chance.

568
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:50,000
We said you have to keep this fellow off the side two on the beach to Cardinals.

569
01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:54,000
That's not easily done either. Brock, triple in the first inning.

570
01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:59,000
Chuck out in the third. And here he is again in the bottom half of the sixth inning.

571
01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:04,000
The Cardinals lead three to one.

572
01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:10,000
Got some good help in this booth today. Tony Kubeck.

573
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:13,000
And Ed Snow works with us.

574
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:20,000
Makes a big space call every Saturday throughout the year. Sandy Colt-Fex.

575
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:26,000
Brock Busworth down to first base, man. They'll never get it.

576
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:39,000
A good play by George Scott, the first baseman.

577
01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:44,000
George Scott, the big first baseman, came over.

578
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:50,000
Bare handed the ball. But we were talking about Brock Graves' feet.

579
01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:56,000
He's been three days in the pitch in the first base.

580
01:05:56,000 --> 01:06:00,000
We told you, this fellow likes to run.

581
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:07,000
He only had, let's see, 52 stolen bases on the year.

582
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:10,000
He's now going to go on the first pitch. Let's watch it.

583
01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:12,000
No one away.

584
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:15,000
Same as before, the first thing, George coming out.

585
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:17,000
Both Brock slipped a little bit.

586
01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:22,000
Scott says, come on, it's on. It's telling.

587
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:28,000
Now maybe I had it.

588
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:32,000
We'll keep it on Brock. First flunk to hit it.

589
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:35,000
He can handle that back.

590
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:39,000
It's over the first base.

591
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:45,000
Brock's back in there. He dives back in.

592
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:49,000
You have to keep this fellow closed to Brock at first base.

593
01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:51,000
He comes in.

594
01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:53,000
Come to throw the first.

595
01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:56,000
He may go to third. They'd better hurry it up on him.

596
01:06:56,000 --> 01:07:00,000
He's making a turn in second. Here he goes to first.

597
01:07:00,000 --> 01:07:02,000
He may go home.

598
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:06,000
He holds up his gun.

599
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:27,000
They say, we'll get an air on the throne.

600
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:31,000
This is what we've talked about so often.

601
01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:44,000
But, when he gets on those sacks, he not only follows the pitchers, he worries the infielders, because they have to starten up.

602
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:50,000
Right now, the infielers pulled in as no one is out.

603
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:58,000
And, Hurt Floater to hit it. And, he has not made a pitch for the Jimmy Three Pitchers of George shot at first base.

604
01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:02,000
Back ball, low and outside, ball one.

605
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:08,000
Talking about our help here in the...

606
01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:18,000
In the first, Sandy Focac. Bill Gallagher helping me.

607
01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:28,000
Hurt Floater hits a little lazy flat in the right field. I don't believe Bill Brock can score on this and Lou Brock, here comes a throw and a cutoff for George Scott.

608
01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:37,000
It was not deep enough to get in Lou Brock from third base.

609
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:48,000
So, it's one away now. Lou Brock still on his third base.

610
01:08:51,000 --> 01:09:01,000
When the bottom half is sixth inning, the Cardinals have three runs on six hits and the Red Sox have one run on five hits.

611
01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:12,000
Watt, Olsinski, in the bullpen for the Red Sox. The infielers still in. Roger Maris to the hitter.

612
01:09:13,000 --> 01:09:21,000
Lee Sang is not going into his lineup. He's looking right at Lou Brock. Here's the pitch. It's lowered inside, ball one.

613
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:37,000
You can see what Brock can do to a ball clerk. Usually a pitcher will take a windup when a man is on third, but not with Brock's speed.

614
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:51,000
They're concerned about him shooting home. The pitch to Roger Maris. Put on his foul straight back. One ball and one strike on Roger.

615
01:09:51,000 --> 01:10:03,000
Especially for the Red Sox, shot at first. That's bad. Second.

616
01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:13,000
Dr. Selleck's shot. Dr. Jones at third. The Simpkins left. He's not too deep, by the way. Reggie Smith in center, pull over right.

617
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:23,000
O'Day Cardinals in right field. Elton Howard to catch him. Lee Sang to pitch it. And here comes the pitch inside. Ball two.

618
01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:32,000
Lou Brock on his third. This is Roger Maris' sixth World Series.

619
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:51,000
He's playing 28 series games going into this series this year. The turn one pitch. Put on his track two. A turn ball right into his foul.

620
01:10:51,000 --> 01:11:06,000
Two and two at the top. One away. Elton Howard out to say something to Lee Sang. Sang takes his hit. Elton Howard down now.

621
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:20,000
Back of Roger Maris. He's giving the sign. Sang taking the good look. He's ready. Elton Howard holds that target right in the middle. Here's the pitch. Roger.

622
01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:39,000
And a hell of a foul down at first base line. And it was just foul. Ken Colburn and Amtee Wiering here at First Stadium.

623
01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:51,000
Bringing our youth fans to the third game of the World Series. The Cardinals won the first game. The Red Sox won the second.

624
01:11:52,000 --> 01:12:02,000
Here's the put two pitch to Roger's outside. Ball three. Cardinals out in front. Three to one.

625
01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:16,000
Nelson Browse all the way. For the Cardinals. Gary Bell started for the Red Sox. Gary Wazlowski came in and now then Lee Sang here at the bottom half.

626
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:38,000
Here's the pitch. The ball. The base hit out at the right ball. Hold those hard balls over to cut the ball off. In the score is Lugra. And holding on at first base is Roger Maris.

627
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:57,000
Roger Maris tops in the fourth run. Here for the Cardinals. Getting a nice hand. The big bull. Orlando Cepeda. Lee Sang takes a look over first.

628
01:12:57,000 --> 01:13:18,000
Goes over there. Who knows? They may start Roger Maris. Orlando Cepeda does not have a base hit. And the third he's 0 for 8. 0 for 9.

629
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:37,000
He's a base hit by Roger. That's his third run batted in this year. He has two on ground balls in game one. They sent Lugra home. So he has been productive in that RBI department for St. Louis.

630
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:54,000
Lugra better the productive than run for him. And how? That one strike. That's Orlando Cepeda. The ball is popped up. Elston Howard may have a chance. He's right in front of the screen. Here comes over George Scott. Elston Howard takes a plug in there. He heads up and makes a bluff.

631
01:13:54,000 --> 01:14:20,000
But he's only kidding. That's George Scott at the first base. Came all the way in. Roger made a real good bluff. But didn't go it. Two away. The hitter is Tim McHarvey.

632
01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:40,000
McHarvey got a base hit to center field. And a grounded out. Last time up. So he's 1 for 2. First time up today. Left hander hitter. He's blocked over that place. Least hander and curveball in there for 12 strike one.

633
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:53,000
Elston Howard is still back to same. Little high. He's staying ahead to jump but one strike on McHarvey. On his first base. Roger Maersk.

634
01:14:53,000 --> 01:15:19,000
The outfield. Swung around a little bit to the right. McHarvey. That will hit the ball anywhere though. Roger Maersk takes a good lead off first. The pitch through McHarvey is too high. One ball and one strike.

635
01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:36,000
McHarvey will be followed by Mike Shannon who hit a home run in the second inning. A red shot. One run on five hits. The Cardinals four runs on seven hits.

636
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:49,000
Where the bottom has the sixth inning. Lee Sang comes in. Here's the pitch through McHarvey. He's started. Held up. The umpire is in there. One ball and two strikes.

637
01:15:49,000 --> 01:16:15,000
Lee Sang. Taking plenty of time. McHarvey crosses over the play. Here's the pitch curveball. A little lazy looser.

638
01:16:15,000 --> 01:16:25,000
The third base for Dalton Jones. Other than taking for the third out. And that's all for the Cardinals here. The bottom half is sixth inning. And the score after sixth inning is a play.

639
01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:29,000
With the Cardinals four and the red shot one.

640
01:16:29,000 --> 01:16:52,000
Reggie Fett hooks it to the hard out to right field. Roger Maersk going way back. That ball is gone for a home run.

641
01:16:52,000 --> 01:17:06,000
Reggie Fett on the first pitch by Nelson Browse. Hits the ball high and far out of the right field. A home run.

642
01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:15,000
That's two for three. The only time he got him out he hit the ball hard. Jerry Adair is the hitter.

643
01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:23,000
The Cardinals now lead four to two with the top half of seventh inning. Nelson Browse. Breaking pitch. Blowing outside. Ball one.

644
01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:28,000
It's Boston Red Sox club has been coming from behind all year hasn't it?

645
01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:36,000
That's been the pattern for you. They've been very tough in the late 10s and trying to get back in against a very tough young right hander here today.

646
01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:49,000
The pitch to Jerry Adair after shortstop. Max Leporetto the flip over to Cepeda. And that's all for Jerry Adair. One down.

647
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:58,000
That brings up a little shortstop. Rico Petruccelli who fly it out to left.

648
01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:06,000
Leporetto. And throughout the center. He's going for two.

649
01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:19,000
Forty-two. Cardinals over the red side. Nelson Browse. Here's the pitch. Outside. Ball one.

650
01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:29,000
Browse. Doesn't make too much of a move. Before he gets off. Before he goes into the pitch.

651
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:33,000
Put his foot on the rubber. Here it is. Just as he lets her go.

652
01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:43,000
It pops up. Out into Leporetto. Lerbrot coming over. Calls for it. Hold his hand up here. And takes it. Out number two.

653
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:53,000
So after a quick home run by Reggie Smith. Browse settles down. Gets the next two batters.

654
01:18:54,000 --> 01:19:07,000
That brings up Elton Hart. Hart's got a face hit. And the right field is first time up. And struck out his last time.

655
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:19,000
One for two. Good curveball. Low and outside. Ball one.

656
01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:23,000
Hart with that wide stance of his. Way back in the batter's park. Keeps moving that back.

657
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:29,000
Nelson Browse looks at him. He's ready now. The pitch. Low and outside. Ball two.

658
01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:41,000
Hart checks with his folks. Popowski at third. The Red Sox have been trying to play catch up since the second inning.

659
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:50,000
Really since the first inning. Because the Cardinals scored one in the first. Chuck baseball. Hart taking all the wares.

660
01:19:50,000 --> 01:20:00,000
Two balls in one strike. Whenever you get behind. They're like three to nothing.

661
01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:06,000
Can't play too much baseball. Got to set and hope that someone gets on.

662
01:20:07,000 --> 01:20:11,000
Pick one here to pick a couple here and get back in the ball. You can't hit and run or steal really.

663
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:16,000
Ball right back to the middle. Javier the second baseman over there. Flips it over to Cepeda.

664
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:22,000
And that's all for the Red Sox here in the top half of the seventh inning.

665
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:26,000
But they came up with one run on one hit. No errors. And no one left on base.

666
01:20:27,000 --> 01:20:30,000
That's the sixth and a half inning to play for the Cardinals. Four and the Red Sox two.

667
01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:35,000
6-10 Mike Shannon leading things off. The Cardinals in the bottom half of the seventh inning.

668
01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:38,000
The first pitch by Lee Chang in there for call strike one.

669
01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:45,000
Mike Shannon is the only native of San Luis playing on the Cardinals.

670
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:51,000
The umpire is sending someone out to the right center.

671
01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:58,000
There's a banner hanging over the fence. Get it out of there. That's Frank Humane behind home plate.

672
01:20:59,000 --> 01:21:04,000
One strike on Mike Shannon. He had a home run in the second inning.

673
01:21:04,000 --> 01:21:07,000
He must play down the third base line. He'll never get it.

674
01:21:08,000 --> 01:21:11,000
Dalton Jones up for the ball and road play.

675
01:21:19,000 --> 01:21:24,000
Mike Shannon from Dalton Jones back at third.

676
01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:28,000
Late one down. Got himself a face hit.

677
01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:35,000
The Cardinals four, the Red Sox two. We're in the bottom half of the seventh inning.

678
01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:39,000
And the hitter now is Hoolie Javier.

679
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:43,000
That was a pretty good serve.

680
01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:48,000
Got a face hit. The left field is first time.

681
01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:54,000
That's struck out. His last time he's made a couple of fine plays in the series.

682
01:21:54,000 --> 01:21:58,000
It's one of the finest plays I've ever seen.

683
01:21:59,000 --> 01:22:02,000
In the second game of the semifinals.

684
01:22:03,000 --> 01:22:09,000
In boxing, he stole for the ball. He didn't think he had a chance to even knock the ball down.

685
01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:15,000
He not only came up with it, he threw the man out of second base.

686
01:22:16,000 --> 01:22:18,000
No one away. Javier is the hitter.

687
01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:23,000
Bang, hit. The hit guy, Elton Hyres, starts the Shannon-LeJoy.

688
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:28,000
The Cardinals like to hit and run. They like to run.

689
01:22:32,000 --> 01:22:38,000
Shannon at first base. He only has two stolen bases on the year.

690
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:45,000
They're throwing out fourth time. Javier.

691
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:48,000
Get the piece of the ball. Here's the pitch.

692
01:22:49,000 --> 01:22:54,000
Javier hits the foul. Down the left field line, back in the stands.

693
01:22:55,000 --> 01:22:59,000
One ball and one strike.

694
01:23:01,000 --> 01:23:08,000
Four runs for the Cardinals on eight hits. Two runs for the Red Sox on six hits.

695
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:12,000
We have a runner at first base, Mike Shannon.

696
01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:18,000
And the batter is Javier. One ball and one strike. Lee Stank.

697
01:23:22,000 --> 01:23:24,000
He's the pitcher.

698
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:29,000
Okay, Darrell started for the Red Sox. Marsalouki now Stank.

699
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:34,000
The one and one pitch for Stank. Here it is. Run on, miss, right through.

700
01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:41,000
The Red Sox in the infield defensively.

701
01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:45,000
George Scott holding Mike Shannon on down there.

702
01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:51,000
Javier Depp, second, and Texas Filler of short stops, Joplin Jones at third.

703
01:23:52,000 --> 01:23:57,000
And the outfield, Japski, miss, putter ball.

704
01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:02,000
Elton Hyres, the catcher. Lee Stank, center. Here's the pitch.

705
01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:06,000
Little tap out for short stops. Hector Shelley has to go to first base.

706
01:24:07,000 --> 01:24:10,000
And they got Javier, moving down to second, Mike Shannon.

707
01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:16,000
That ball was not hit too hard. Hector Shelley had to charge it.

708
01:24:17,000 --> 01:24:23,000
Unable to throw out Javier. So he can go down at first base line.

709
01:24:23,000 --> 01:24:25,000
That's what they're like.

710
01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:36,000
That brings up Darrell Maxwell. Maxwell struck out and flat out.

711
01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:40,000
The right sphere. He's over two.

712
01:24:41,000 --> 01:24:46,000
Down at second base, Mike Shannon looking around, checking to see where the short stops.

713
01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:53,000
Hector Shelley saying, look back at Shannon. Here's the pitch. In there for Carl Strickland.

714
01:24:54,000 --> 01:25:01,000
Darrell Maxwell, one of the fellows that played Little League Baseball.

715
01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:08,000
And his mother, they tell me, was his father. He said she's pretty tough-hearted.

716
01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:12,000
There goes the runner, Mike Shannon. The ball hit out in the turn of field.

717
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:15,000
They make it a double play. They're just going to put on. Here comes the call.

718
01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:18,000
Did we get him? No.

719
01:25:25,000 --> 01:25:29,000
Mike Shannon was feeling third. Maxwell hits the ball.

720
01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:33,000
Joel Jones is close to third base.

721
01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:39,000
Down the ball for Mike Shannon. Told him to go back to second. He just made it.

722
01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:43,000
So it's two away. And the hitter is Nelson Brow.

723
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:48,000
The umpire today, behind home plate, Frank Humana. First base, Paul Pryor.

724
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:52,000
At second base, Ed Runge. First base, Paul Pryor.

725
01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:56,000
At left field, on the line, Johnny Stevenson.

726
01:25:57,000 --> 01:26:02,000
And at right field, my old friend, Mr. Al Farley.

727
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:05,000
On the right field line.

728
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:10,000
He was speaking with Al Varley. Jim Longboard, he was the head after the game the other day.

729
01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:13,000
The one hitter in Boston that Varley worked behind the plate.

730
01:26:14,000 --> 01:26:19,000
He was a great umpire. The first time he'd ever worked with Mr. Varley back at the plate ball.

731
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:22,000
And Jim was very complimentary about him.

732
01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:26,000
He's one of the finest hitters I've ever seen. And he's been around for a long time.

733
01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:30,000
In fact, I think he came up about the same time I have here, 1940.

734
01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:35,000
Nelson Brow, the hitter. Big tank. First pitch, one on a miss, strike one.

735
01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:39,000
It's always nice to hear a pitcher say that.

736
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:42,000
Yes it is. It doesn't always happen that way, does it?

737
01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:51,000
No. Al gets on me a little bit. I used to complain and moan a little bit on those calls, strikes.

738
01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:59,000
Every time he sees me, he'll look at me and kind of make a face and say, oh no, that ain't no strike.

739
01:27:00,000 --> 01:27:02,000
Try to imitate me. And I guess I did.

740
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:05,000
I had to beg a little bit.

741
01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:11,000
One strike on Nelson Brow, late-string pitcher, purple, one on miss.

742
01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:19,000
I imagine on that last one, Mike Shannon must have been on his own going to third.

743
01:27:20,000 --> 01:27:25,000
And moving over and stealing, he would have had that base stolen easily, obviously.

744
01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:28,000
He had a real good jump.

745
01:27:29,000 --> 01:27:33,000
I don't think he fell down anywhere along here. So I'm pretty with him, baby.

746
01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:40,000
Yes. Her ball outside. Ball one.

747
01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:49,000
The Cardinals scored one in the first, two in the second, one in the sixth for their four runs.

748
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:57,000
Red shot scored one in the sixth, one in the seventh for their two. Four to two, the Cardinals over the red shot.

749
01:27:57,000 --> 01:28:02,000
And the bottom half to seven here, a little lazy looper. The shot stop, kept the celly, goes back.

750
01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:07,000
The dad calls for it, he takes it. And that's all for Brow and that's all for Cardinals here.

751
01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:15,000
And the bottom half to seven, the score here at First Stadium, the Cardinals four and the Reds shots two.

752
01:28:16,000 --> 01:28:21,000
He's all for one. He's set 50 series up about.

753
01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:27,000
On the youth, he's at a 251.

754
01:28:28,000 --> 01:28:32,000
Good par, 16 hole mark.

755
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:38,000
But he has no contact. Good fast ball by Brow. One ball and one strike.

756
01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:48,000
Brow checking with his catcher, McHarver.

757
01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:57,000
Bill Sang takes too much time before he steps out of there. McHarver looks over the bench.

758
01:28:58,000 --> 01:29:04,000
He wants something. Brow doesn't want to score it. Here it is.

759
01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:08,000
That ball, run on, set, strike three.

760
01:29:09,000 --> 01:29:12,000
Of course you'll see that happen a lot of times.

761
01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:19,000
Catcher wants a fast ball. Keep giving it signs.

762
01:29:20,000 --> 01:29:25,000
If he doesn't want to score it, he has to go back because the manager wants it.

763
01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:31,000
I'll throw it. One ball, two strikes. Nelson Brow takes his head.

764
01:29:31,000 --> 01:29:35,000
Here's the pitch. Good curve ball, but it breaks too far.

765
01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:42,000
Brow's got a real good overhand curve ball. Little trouble getting it over.

766
01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:51,000
Four to two, the score. The Cardinals over the Reds side.

767
01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:58,000
Bill Boyd, pitch hitting for Lee Sang and the top half, the eighth inning.

768
01:29:58,000 --> 01:30:04,000
Brow's, pitch, downer, out to shortstop Maxwell. He's up for the ball.

769
01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:10,000
Clips the ball over to Cepeda and that's all for Cepeda. Go for it.

770
01:30:11,000 --> 01:30:13,000
The Cardinals, clips the ball around to his field.

771
01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:21,000
Cepeda's first, Javier is second, Maxwell is short, Shannon is third, left field,

772
01:30:21,000 --> 01:30:27,000
right field, left, center field, left, right field, Maritz catches McCarver,

773
01:30:28,000 --> 01:30:34,000
and Nelson Brow's on the mound, all the way. Jose Cardinal.

774
01:30:37,000 --> 01:30:44,000
He's going for two. Last time up, he's sacrifice. Curve ball, the ender, strike one.

775
01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:54,000
Cardinal will be followed by Dalton Jones. Jones has two hits, last two times up.

776
01:30:55,000 --> 01:31:04,000
I'm Peewee Reed. And Ken Coleman, as the ball hit out in the center field.

777
01:31:04,000 --> 01:31:13,000
First blood back underneath and takes it for out number two.

778
01:31:14,000 --> 01:31:21,000
Ken, I can't see the reason why this ball part could affect the red shot.

779
01:31:22,000 --> 01:31:27,000
No, I think it's a good ball part for this passing front because left and right center field,

780
01:31:28,000 --> 01:31:32,000
we have several men who can get the ball out. It's a good, honest, fair ball part.

781
01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:38,000
It's certainly a beautiful, beautiful play. We're hoping to have one like it in Boston one of these days, Peewee.

782
01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:45,000
I understand you are. Hope you do. Dalton Jones, back ball by Brow's in there for called strike one.

783
01:31:52,000 --> 01:31:58,000
What's that? On Dalton Jones' foul, looking down at McCarver's safety's head.

784
01:31:58,000 --> 01:32:04,000
Brow's a struck out four. Here's the hit. Back ball hit back through the middle out here.

785
01:32:05,000 --> 01:32:07,000
The center field may hit for Dalton Jones.

786
01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:14,000
This fellow looks like quite a hitter, Ken. He's always been a very smooth pointer.

787
01:32:15,000 --> 01:32:17,000
And when he's had the chance to play, he's done well.

788
01:32:18,000 --> 01:32:20,000
He's had some problems in the past, potentially.

789
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:24,000
And this year he's gone in there at third base, Peewee, and he's done his job.

790
01:32:24,000 --> 01:32:29,000
And he may have just won it for a long time to come, the way he's gone at late.

791
01:32:30,000 --> 01:32:37,000
Now we see that Red Chainses, for the first time today, is going out to the mound to talk to Nelson Brow.

792
01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:42,000
No indication of any warm-up activity has yet. However, there may be.

793
01:32:43,000 --> 01:32:50,000
In any case, Cepeda, McCarver, Chainses, and Brow are having a conversation now at the mound,

794
01:32:50,000 --> 01:32:56,000
part of which undoubtedly is how they want to handle Cardiff's sense of fear and how they want to pitch to him.

795
01:32:57,000 --> 01:32:59,000
And the play down by a flank, Humont, is on his way out.

796
01:33:00,000 --> 01:33:05,000
This is the eighth inning, and with one out, the Red Sox have a runner at third base.

797
01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:11,000
The Cardinals are leading by a score of four to two, but the Red Sox have been chipping away

798
01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:14,000
as they come up with single runs in the sixth and seventh.

799
01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:18,000
The conference over, the airs is in, and here's Peewee.

800
01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:25,000
Nelson Brow would have liked to have kept that man off the first base and have his 50 leading off.

801
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:30,000
The top half of the ninth inning. One flight here has been fired up.

802
01:33:31,000 --> 01:33:36,000
And he had a go at it, but he fouled straight back. What a cut he had himself.

803
01:33:37,000 --> 01:33:41,000
And did he swing that hard last year? No, he didn't.

804
01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:46,000
He actually, as you probably have heard, and many people have, I know, during this winter,

805
01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:49,000
as Charles said himself, he claimed like a fighter.

806
01:33:50,000 --> 01:33:54,000
Every day for 90 minutes he worked out as a health problem in Boston,

807
01:33:55,000 --> 01:33:59,000
and he had a trainer working with him, and he worked just like a fighter getting ready to fight.

808
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:04,000
And he didn't put on any weight. He weighed about 180 pounds, but he's very, very strong,

809
01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:07,000
and he's got that whip-like motion now at the plate.

810
01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:11,000
He holds his hand high. Here's the pitch.

811
01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:15,000
He'll swim her out to Javier. He's up for the ball.

812
01:34:16,000 --> 01:34:18,000
He flips the ball over to Javier.

813
01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:22,000
He's got the ball for the Red Sox here in the top half of the eighth inning.

814
01:34:23,000 --> 01:34:28,000
And the score here is plus-tinted. It's the Cardinals 4 and the Red Sox 2.

815
01:34:29,000 --> 01:34:34,000
Herb Rock, out of the bottom half of the eighth inning, he had four hits.

816
01:34:34,000 --> 01:34:41,000
In the first game up at Fenway Park in Boston, of course, there was only one hit for second game.

817
01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:43,000
That was by Javier.

818
01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:48,000
As soon as he has six hits in the series, first pitch by Dan Olszewski hit out into right field.

819
01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:51,000
That ball may be trouble, but Reggie Smith will have it.

820
01:34:52,000 --> 01:34:55,000
And right center, Reggie Smith moves over and catches it.

821
01:34:56,000 --> 01:34:58,000
Ball was hit hard for Brock.

822
01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:01,000
Kind of a high-back ball. He's chopped down on it.

823
01:35:01,000 --> 01:35:05,000
Olszewski, kind of a turkey jerky kind of a fellow out there on the mound.

824
01:35:06,000 --> 01:35:08,000
Lots of arms and legs.

825
01:35:10,000 --> 01:35:15,000
Kirk Blood, he's up for his fourth time today. He's one of the three.

826
01:35:19,000 --> 01:35:20,000
And a base hit.

827
01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:24,000
The center fielder's first time up. There's a fast ball. It's too high.

828
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:26,000
The ball won.

829
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:29,000
Cardinals 4 runs on eight hits.

830
01:35:29,000 --> 01:35:32,000
Red Sox, two runs on seven hits.

831
01:35:34,000 --> 01:35:37,000
Olszewski shakes his head. He's ready. Here's the fifth.

832
01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:41,000
Flurrish takes it. In there for tall strike one.

833
01:35:45,000 --> 01:35:46,000
Mike Humon.

834
01:35:47,000 --> 01:35:48,000
Behind the plate.

835
01:35:49,000 --> 01:35:50,000
They jump hard.

836
01:35:51,000 --> 01:35:53,000
Elton Howard moves outside. Here's the curve ball.

837
01:35:54,000 --> 01:35:55,000
He's slapped it down. It's too high.

838
01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:57,000
Two balls in one strike.

839
01:35:57,000 --> 01:36:00,000
As Howard Howard walks over, he takes the ball.

840
01:36:06,000 --> 01:36:10,000
Never thought we'd have such a day as we've had today.

841
01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:13,000
Kind of a misty rain.

842
01:36:14,000 --> 01:36:16,000
All day at third game. There's the ball. Hit down to the third base for Dalton Jones.

843
01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:20,000
Up with it. Over to George Scott and that's all for Kirk Blood.

844
01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:23,000
So Dan Olszewski, he's high.

845
01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:26,000
The first hit man, the baby, brings up Roger Maersk.

846
01:36:27,000 --> 01:36:29,000
Roger Maersk wants the swing.

847
01:36:30,000 --> 01:36:34,000
Hitting the double play. First time up. Flat out to right field.

848
01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:36,000
And the third of these.

849
01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:38,000
Gotta face it.

850
01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:40,000
To right field and drove in a run.

851
01:36:41,000 --> 01:36:44,000
And as Ken Solja, as he serves, runs him in in the sphere.

852
01:36:45,000 --> 01:36:47,000
Drove in the only two runs. Cardinals Jack the first.

853
01:36:48,000 --> 01:36:50,000
And Olszewski first takes it in there for tall strike one.

854
01:36:50,000 --> 01:36:58,000
They say he drove them both in.

855
01:36:59,000 --> 01:37:01,000
A little rounder but they count it.

856
01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:04,000
There's a picture there for tall strike two.

857
01:37:05,000 --> 01:37:07,000
The important thing is to get that man in from third.

858
01:37:08,000 --> 01:37:10,000
That's what he did.

859
01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:14,000
On two, let's see what Olszewski will do with Maersk.

860
01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:18,000
No ball, two strikes. Howard, the kid that gives the sign.

861
01:37:18,000 --> 01:37:19,000
He moves outside.

862
01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:22,000
Little tap style down the first base line.

863
01:37:23,000 --> 01:37:28,000
Hicks Siffler, the coach at first base for the Cardinals, retrieves the ball.

864
01:37:29,000 --> 01:37:32,000
Here's the stunt of George Siffler.

865
01:37:33,000 --> 01:37:35,000
Many of you fans remember.

866
01:37:36,000 --> 01:37:41,000
The St. Louis Browns, one of the greatest hitters of all time.

867
01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:47,000
George Siffler, Roger Maersk, picks it up side, one ball and two strikes.

868
01:37:52,000 --> 01:37:56,000
Two runs, seven hits for the Red Sox, one error.

869
01:37:57,000 --> 01:38:03,000
Cardinals, full run, eight hits, nowhere. Roger Maersk, playing inside the second base, a little tap.

870
01:38:03,000 --> 01:38:10,000
After her, it's going to stop. Look at the ball, a little shaky, but you're not getting it.

871
01:38:15,000 --> 01:38:17,000
Well, here's what happens.

872
01:38:18,000 --> 01:38:24,000
Roger Maersk, side to side, gets a little tap, a perfect shot.

873
01:38:25,000 --> 01:38:28,000
Down the first base line, George shot up with the ball.

874
01:38:28,000 --> 01:38:32,000
Oh, this, he over the first, but they can't get it.

875
01:38:33,000 --> 01:38:35,000
So, it's a base hit for Roger.

876
01:38:36,000 --> 01:38:38,000
He's second ahead of the game.

877
01:38:42,000 --> 01:38:46,000
The big ball, he still hasn't had a hit for series, oh, for three to go.

878
01:38:50,000 --> 01:38:51,000
Two away.

879
01:38:52,000 --> 01:38:55,000
Olsinski, looks over fast, here's the pitch.

880
01:38:55,000 --> 01:38:59,000
Oh, hit out into that field, Cardinals going way back, way back.

881
01:39:00,000 --> 01:39:03,000
Off of the wall, Cardinals, up with the ball.

882
01:39:03,000 --> 01:39:25,000
Here comes Roger Maersk, and it's going to Cepeda, hitting the second with the double.

883
01:39:25,000 --> 01:39:33,000
Well, Orlando Cepeda gets his first hit in the series, he was all for ten.

884
01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:42,000
It was a time drive out off the right field wall, right around that three-eighty-six foot side.

885
01:39:42,000 --> 01:39:55,000
Well, a double, that's it, Roger Maersk's first, next to the score, five to two, and save the Cardinals over the red card.

886
01:39:56,000 --> 01:40:08,000
Remember, fans, Ken Coleman and I will be right back here tomorrow for the fourth game of the World Series between the Cardinals and the Red Cards.

887
01:40:08,000 --> 01:40:11,000
Let's hope that you can be with us.

888
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:16,000
We'll be looking forward to the friends for tomorrow's game and also the game Monday.

889
01:40:17,000 --> 01:40:22,000
MacArthur, runner on his second base, makes a hit in MacArthur.

890
01:40:23,000 --> 01:40:26,000
He's tacked it over a play for fifty, takes too much time, he's back Saturday.

891
01:40:28,000 --> 01:40:33,000
Youmuck comes out, takes the third over home plate.

892
01:40:33,000 --> 01:40:37,000
The Cardinals one for three.

893
01:40:38,000 --> 01:40:41,000
Otsiski looks back at Cepeda's second.

894
01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:45,000
Here's the pitch, that ball hit out to MacArthur.

895
01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:51,000
Otsiski's center of stretch flips the ball over the shot, and that's all for the Cardinals, that's all for the Cardinals here.

896
01:40:52,000 --> 01:40:54,000
The bottom half of the eighth inning was that one run, though.

897
01:40:54,000 --> 01:41:03,000
The Cardinals now lead by a score of six to two, with a lot of power in the right center and left center.

898
01:41:04,000 --> 01:41:06,000
And dead center, it's four fourteen dead center.

899
01:41:07,000 --> 01:41:12,000
Nelson Brown, foul back straight back, but you're a good fast ball.

900
01:41:13,000 --> 01:41:14,000
Can't remain.

901
01:41:15,000 --> 01:41:18,000
O-one-two, looks like Brown.

902
01:41:18,000 --> 01:41:23,000
Now to seek that fast ball by Scott.

903
01:41:24,000 --> 01:41:26,000
How does that feel, fifty, with a count?

904
01:41:27,000 --> 01:41:30,000
No ball for two strikes, like a bad pitch.

905
01:41:31,000 --> 01:41:32,000
Maybe you thought George Scott.

906
01:41:33,000 --> 01:41:35,000
Here's the pitch, curve ball, low and outside.

907
01:41:36,000 --> 01:41:39,000
One ball and two strikes.

908
01:41:39,000 --> 01:41:47,000
Perfect pitch on two, not so, makes the pitch so bad that maybe we're not going to offer.

909
01:41:48,000 --> 01:41:50,000
Keep it around that straight.

910
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:54,000
Maybe two or three inches outside, two or three inches inside.

911
01:41:55,000 --> 01:42:01,000
Here's the pitch, one and two, curve ball, down two, down and in third, a long throw over to Cepeda.

912
01:42:02,000 --> 01:42:03,000
That's all for George Scott.

913
01:42:04,000 --> 01:42:07,000
The infield, flips that ball around.

914
01:42:07,000 --> 01:42:10,000
Brings up Reggie Smith.

915
01:42:11,000 --> 01:42:17,000
Reggie Smith, hit a home run his last time.

916
01:42:18,000 --> 01:42:23,000
He has good speed, he led the club in solar base, he has a terrific arm.

917
01:42:24,000 --> 01:42:26,000
He's super green today.

918
01:42:27,000 --> 01:42:30,000
Got to face it into the right, hit a home run to right field.

919
01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:35,000
He led the international league in hitting in nineteen sixty-six.

920
01:42:35,000 --> 01:42:38,000
This fellow could be a real fine one.

921
01:42:39,000 --> 01:42:40,000
He can do it all.

922
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:44,000
Nelson Brow, first pitch going, back ball in there for call strike one.

923
01:42:45,000 --> 01:42:50,000
You'll see this happen quite often, right at part of the game.

924
01:42:51,000 --> 01:42:55,000
Consider taking that first pitch, some managers will make you take it.

925
01:42:56,000 --> 01:42:59,000
Give that pitcher a chance to pitch, maybe he'll get wild.

926
01:42:59,000 --> 01:43:04,000
Hit back, one ball to one strike.

927
01:43:05,000 --> 01:43:11,000
Sometimes when he releases that ball, and a ball's way over George's first pitch.

928
01:43:12,000 --> 01:43:19,000
Pretty hard not to follow through and release that ball with something on it.

929
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:22,000
That's falling a little bit towards first pitch.

930
01:43:23,000 --> 01:43:24,000
Most of them do.

931
01:43:24,000 --> 01:43:29,000
Back ball, inside the corner, and that's a call strike two.

932
01:43:30,000 --> 01:43:31,000
He has something on that one.

933
01:43:32,000 --> 01:43:33,000
One ball, two strikes.

934
01:43:34,000 --> 01:43:36,000
It's one away, we're in the top half of ninth inning.

935
01:43:37,000 --> 01:43:42,000
It's the last dash for the Red Sox, as they trail by four or five to two.

936
01:43:43,000 --> 01:43:44,000
Five runs, hit it.

937
01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:46,000
No air for the Cardinals.

938
01:43:47,000 --> 01:43:50,000
Two runs, seven hits and one air for the Red Sox.

939
01:43:50,000 --> 01:43:53,000
One ball, two strikes on Reggie Smith.

940
01:43:54,000 --> 01:43:55,000
Nelson Brown, he's ready.

941
01:43:56,000 --> 01:43:57,000
Here's the pitch.

942
01:43:58,000 --> 01:44:02,000
Back ball, it pops up, McAlbert May, he has a chance, going back in the stands.

943
01:44:03,000 --> 01:44:06,000
So the Calvert May, one ball, two strikes.

944
01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:13,000
It's hard to ball as far back as I can remember.

945
01:44:14,000 --> 01:44:17,000
Always got a club that likes to run.

946
01:44:17,000 --> 01:44:20,000
That goes back to the early 40s when I first came to the league.

947
01:44:21,000 --> 01:44:35,000
That was like Enid Flauder, Enid Flauder, Terry Mora, Ralph Key, Dan Mugell, Walter Kupfer, the catcher.

948
01:44:36,000 --> 01:44:39,000
He has very good speed, hold on like McArthur.

949
01:44:40,000 --> 01:44:42,000
Nelson Brown, one and two picks for Reggie Smith.

950
01:44:43,000 --> 01:44:44,000
Back ball, just missed inside.

951
01:44:44,000 --> 01:44:47,000
Makes you count two and three.

952
01:44:52,000 --> 01:44:53,000
And a great shortstop.

953
01:44:54,000 --> 01:45:01,000
He played here at the Cardinals, his career and a parallel of my career.

954
01:45:02,000 --> 01:45:05,000
Played against teams in the 39th Junior World Series at Rochester.

955
01:45:06,000 --> 01:45:10,000
And he came up to Cardinals, party man, most of you fans will remember.

956
01:45:10,000 --> 01:45:13,000
Two balls, two strikes on Reggie Smith.

957
01:45:14,000 --> 01:45:16,000
Inside, ball three.

958
01:45:19,000 --> 01:45:21,000
Brown gets on top of Reggie Smith.

959
01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:25,000
But now, he's come back, makes the count three and two.

960
01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:29,000
Bobby Doerr is hosting a first save for the Red Sox.

961
01:45:30,000 --> 01:45:32,000
Ed Sapkowski is hosting a third.

962
01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:36,000
Three and two is the count on Reggie Smith.

963
01:45:36,000 --> 01:45:42,000
As a real close stance left-handed, he's a quick hitter.

964
01:45:43,000 --> 01:45:46,000
Right-handed, batting right-handed, he's wide open.

965
01:45:47,000 --> 01:45:48,000
Here's the three and two pick.

966
01:45:49,000 --> 01:45:52,000
He pops it up, McArthur almost knocks Reggie Smith down.

967
01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:55,000
On the up part, Carl Reggie Smith out.

968
01:45:56,000 --> 01:46:02,000
McArthur going for the ball, he bumps into Reggie Smith.

969
01:46:02,000 --> 01:46:05,000
Of course, the catcher has the right of way.

970
01:46:06,000 --> 01:46:10,000
Reggie Smith bumps back into him.

971
01:46:11,000 --> 01:46:19,000
And what he did, the umpire, like too much, called it off.

972
01:46:20,000 --> 01:46:22,000
And he did it.

973
01:46:27,000 --> 01:46:29,000
McArthur was a set-up for the put-up.

974
01:46:29,000 --> 01:46:31,000
It brings up Jerry Abed.

975
01:46:32,000 --> 01:46:37,000
The big foe, Cepeda, down at first base, he came in and sketched up this through Reggie Smith.

976
01:46:39,000 --> 01:46:43,000
0 for 3 is there for his fifth and ball one.

977
01:46:44,000 --> 01:46:52,000
The last chance, the last shot for the Red Sox, with a top half to nine sitting, they trail by the two.

978
01:46:53,000 --> 01:46:56,000
All the way, Nelson Brow for the cardinal.

979
01:46:56,000 --> 01:47:02,000
Here's the pitch. A jar is taken in there, ball side one, one ball and one shot.

980
01:47:12,000 --> 01:47:17,000
It really turned out to be a beautiful day, good old Sadler today.

981
01:47:18,000 --> 01:47:20,000
I hope it's the same type of day tomorrow.

982
01:47:20,000 --> 01:47:25,000
The one and one pitch inside, ball two.

983
01:47:26,000 --> 01:47:30,000
Two balls, one strike on Nelson Brow during eight there.

984
01:47:31,000 --> 01:47:35,000
Nelson Brow, in 65, started two games for the cardinals.

985
01:47:36,000 --> 01:47:40,000
He played it, then he started 17 and 66.

986
01:47:41,000 --> 01:47:44,000
Started 14.

987
01:47:44,000 --> 01:47:49,000
In 67.

988
01:47:53,000 --> 01:47:56,000
Outside, ball through, three balls and one strike.

989
01:47:57,000 --> 01:48:02,000
On Jerry Abed, he checks with his coach at third base, Khabarovsky.

990
01:48:03,000 --> 01:48:08,000
Let's see if he'll be taking or flinging away.

991
01:48:08,000 --> 01:48:16,000
He's running, doesn't mean too much here. He has to get on to keep the hopes alive.

992
01:48:17,000 --> 01:48:22,000
Here's the pitch. He's taking all the way, it's in there for called strike two.

993
01:48:23,000 --> 01:48:29,000
Three and two on Jerry Abed, two ways. Top half to nine sitting.

994
01:48:30,000 --> 01:48:34,000
Cardinal five, Red Sox two.

995
01:48:34,000 --> 01:48:39,000
Third game for the World Series, they're all even up going into today.

996
01:48:40,000 --> 01:48:45,000
Cardinals having a chance going out in games three to one after the day.

997
01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:48,000
They can hold it, please.

998
01:48:49,000 --> 01:48:51,000
Nelson Brow, he's ready, here's the three and two pitch.

999
01:48:52,000 --> 01:48:54,000
The ball is topped up, that's it for all of it.

1000
01:48:55,000 --> 01:48:58,000
Five-seven called for it, he's got it in his face and takes it through out of number two.

1001
01:48:59,000 --> 01:49:01,000
That's all, a joyous day.

1002
01:49:01,000 --> 01:49:05,000
And that's all for the Red Sox in the top half of the ninth inning.

1003
01:49:06,000 --> 01:49:10,000
The final score, the Cardinals five and the Red Sox two.

1004
01:49:11,000 --> 01:49:15,000
We'll be back in just a minute with a complete wrap-up of today's game.

1005
01:49:16,000 --> 01:49:25,000
Very shortly we're going down to the field where Tony Kuback is ready to interview Cardinal manager, Russ Chandy, and possibly Dan Muegel.

1006
01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:28,000
As soon as we get word from Tony, we'll be sending it on down.

1007
01:49:28,000 --> 01:49:34,000
The total's on the game, St. Louis five, 10 and 0, Boston two, seven and one.

1008
01:49:35,000 --> 01:49:36,000
Down, down to Tony Kuback.

1009
01:49:37,000 --> 01:49:41,000
Thank you, sir, God. You were talking to the manager of the St. Louis Cardinals, Red Sox, is that correct?

1010
01:49:42,000 --> 01:49:45,000
Any thoughts in your mind of just staying right home here in St. Louis and not going back to Boston?

1011
01:49:46,000 --> 01:49:49,000
Well, we'd like to just stay right here, but you never know.

1012
01:49:50,000 --> 01:49:52,000
We've got to plan a tough club over there and we'll battle them all the way.

1013
01:49:53,000 --> 01:49:56,000
Maybe we'll go back game and we won't, but they have a good ball club.

1014
01:49:56,000 --> 01:49:59,000
They have a good ball club and it's pretty hard to win three in a row.

1015
01:50:00,000 --> 01:50:04,000
We have done it a number of times this year and won five in a row and six in a row. Maybe we can do it again.

1016
01:50:05,000 --> 01:50:07,000
That has been a little indefinite as far as the people upstairs.

1017
01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:10,000
Who is going to be your starting pitcher tomorrow? Will it be Gibson?

1018
01:50:11,000 --> 01:50:17,000
Yeah, I announced it before the game that Gibson would be the pitcher and the young boy, the big tall left-hander, will pitch Monday, definitely.

1019
01:50:18,000 --> 01:50:19,000
That's Carlson. That's right.

1020
01:50:20,000 --> 01:50:24,000
Bet you were glad to see Orlando Coteta finally come out of it with a long double right center field.

1021
01:50:24,000 --> 01:50:34,000
Yes, he's been in a slump now for quite some time before the season ended, but the past three or four days before the season was over, he was swinging a bat better.

1022
01:50:35,000 --> 01:50:37,000
He's been swinging a bat real good since the series started.

1023
01:50:38,000 --> 01:50:42,000
He just hadn't connected with the ball and he just can't hold a man like that down too long.

1024
01:50:43,000 --> 01:50:45,000
I think he's going to go and take it right now after that base that he got.

1025
01:50:46,000 --> 01:50:51,000
Red in the very first inning, Nelson Biles at Coggerson. He with a good ball. There was a big discussion behind home plate.

1026
01:50:51,000 --> 01:50:56,000
The three of you picked Williams, Frank Umont, the umpire, the first and south. What was it all about?

1027
01:50:57,000 --> 01:51:02,000
Well, Williams thought that Biles was throwing at him and I said he wasn't throwing at him.

1028
01:51:03,000 --> 01:51:08,000
And Yvonne said that he was going to handle it himself. I said, well, that's okay with me, but I just want to let you know he wasn't throwing at him.

1029
01:51:09,000 --> 01:51:17,000
I said that if he had popped off on the paper like some guys did, that they were going to knock everybody down, then I would say he was throwing at him.

1030
01:51:17,000 --> 01:51:23,000
But none of us ever said anything in the paper that we were going to knock anybody down or do this or that like a couple of the pitchers had said.

1031
01:51:24,000 --> 01:51:26,000
So I just said that he wasn't throwing at him.

1032
01:51:27,000 --> 01:51:31,000
Red, you've seen the Red Sox and you of course have the scouting reports, but now you've played them three ball games. You're up 2-1.

1033
01:51:32,000 --> 01:51:35,000
What have you noticed about the Red Sox that was not in your scouting reports?

1034
01:51:36,000 --> 01:51:42,000
Well, the scouting reports are just about the same. When you go over these scouting reports, they're great.

1035
01:51:42,000 --> 01:51:46,000
You get ideas from them. Some pitchers pitch different, you know.

1036
01:51:47,000 --> 01:51:51,000
Your pitcher has to pitch his own game and that's the way we're going to do it from here.

1037
01:51:52,000 --> 01:52:00,000
The scouting reports, they give you the weakness of the other ball club and it's great to have scouting reports, but Riles has good control.

1038
01:52:01,000 --> 01:52:05,000
It depends on the pitcher. If he has good control, you know that's going to be hard to hit, especially if they've got stuff on them.

1039
01:52:06,000 --> 01:52:09,000
Red and the key to the Red Sox seems to be to stop your sense and that's your dip.

1040
01:52:09,000 --> 01:52:12,000
Congratulations so much. We'll see you out here tomorrow. Thank you, sir.

1041
01:52:13,000 --> 01:52:15,000
Thank you, Red Chains. We'll now back up to first scouting.

1042
01:52:16,000 --> 01:52:22,000
Alright. And here in the radio booth, this is Ken Coleman and we'll continue with our wrap up in one minute.

1043
01:52:22,000 --> 01:52:43,000
I was a little surprised to hear what Red Chains did down stairs a while ago. I thought maybe if they won this game today, they would start the big left-handed call.

1044
01:52:44,000 --> 01:52:46,000
I understand now that they're going to go with Bob Gibson tomorrow.

1045
01:52:46,000 --> 01:53:02,000
Yes, that was a rather surprising move according to all the reports that we have heard up to this time because Red has been mentioning that he would like to get a left-hander in this, particularly with people like this Renskeen Jones providing a lot of the Red Sox power.

1046
01:53:02,000 --> 01:53:15,000
I think one thing, Ken, that kind of hurts the Red Sox a little bit, they don't have real good left-hander-fifteen. They have a fellow named Sparky Lowers, but he does have a little arm trouble, doesn't he?

1047
01:53:16,000 --> 01:53:30,000
Yes, Sparky has arm trouble and is not available. In fact, the only stuff available to us at the moment is young Ken Brett who just turned 19 and has had only two winnings of major league ball behind him after working at Fitzfield this year.

1048
01:53:30,000 --> 01:53:36,000
So that could be a problem. I want to get back just for a moment here to the totals on today's ball game.

1049
01:53:37,000 --> 01:53:44,000
St. Louis winning it 5-2, home runs were hit by Mike Shannon of St. Louis, a two-run job in the second inning.

1050
01:53:45,000 --> 01:53:49,000
And Reggie Smith had won for the Red Sox in the seventh inning.

1051
01:53:49,000 --> 01:53:59,000
Dalvin Jones had the three hits and four tries for Boston. Lou Brock had a pair of hits, Roger Maris had two, and Shannon had a pair for St. Louis.

1052
01:54:00,000 --> 01:54:03,000
So it was quite a ball game here in the third game of the World Series.

1053
01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:14,000
Played before the largest crowd ever at First Memorial Stadium, 54,575 fans were on hand to watch this one.

1054
01:54:14,000 --> 01:54:24,000
And tomorrow, as we mentioned, it will be Bob Gittsons working for the Singler's Cardinals and Jose Santiago will be on the mound for the Boston Red Sox.

1055
01:54:25,000 --> 01:54:34,000
The Cardinals jumped out very quickly in this game when Brock led off the game by whacking a triple into the alley out in left center field and Flutt singled him home.

1056
01:54:35,000 --> 01:54:37,000
So right away they had a one-to-nothing lead.

1057
01:54:37,000 --> 01:54:43,000
Then in the second inning, McArthur led off with a single and Shannon came up with his home run.

1058
01:54:44,000 --> 01:54:48,000
They picked up more in the sixth inning on a punt by Brock.

1059
01:54:49,000 --> 01:54:57,000
When Zang tried to pick him off first, he threw wildly fast shots and Brock got all the way around the third where Maris singled him home.

1060
01:54:58,000 --> 01:55:02,000
And in the eighth inning, Maris got a check swing single down the first base side.

1061
01:55:02,000 --> 01:55:10,000
And Cepeda broke the ice for himself in the World Series by slamming a double off the wall in right center to send home the fifth Cardinal run.

1062
01:55:11,000 --> 01:55:23,000
As Boston was concerned in the scoring column here today, their first run came when Mike Andrews had a yet-to-get hitting in the sixth inning with sacrifice to second and scored on Joan Singles.

1063
01:55:24,000 --> 01:55:27,000
And Smith provided the other run with the home run.

1064
01:55:27,000 --> 01:55:33,000
So Pee-wee, that's pretty much the story on this ball game today.

1065
01:55:34,000 --> 01:55:43,000
And the fans now are starting to file out and we have been, as we have mentioned a number of times during the broadcast, very fortunate in terms of weather.

1066
01:55:44,000 --> 01:55:52,000
Because when you and I get up this morning, I know that we had some doubts, a lot of doubts about what the situation would be weather-wise.

1067
01:55:52,000 --> 01:55:56,000
But it held off and now we might catch some rain tonight and have it clear tomorrow.

1068
01:55:57,000 --> 01:55:59,000
Well it certainly did turn out to be a nice game.

1069
01:56:00,000 --> 01:56:02,000
And thanks, John, to Sharp right now for the Red Sox.

1070
01:56:03,000 --> 01:56:12,000
But I've said, and I've seen this ball club, and Maris knows you've seen them a lot more than I have, that when you get the bat ready to counter the Red Sox ball club out, this is when they bounce back.

1071
01:56:13,000 --> 01:56:14,000
And they're a real pressure ball club.

1072
01:56:15,000 --> 01:56:16,000
They're cocky.

1073
01:56:16,000 --> 01:56:22,000
They're cocky not to the extent where you would just like a ball club, but they're very competent.

1074
01:56:23,000 --> 01:56:24,000
And that's good.

1075
01:56:25,000 --> 01:56:30,000
Well, you know, I think a good example was the last week of the season when they lost two games in the middle of the week to the Cleveland Indians.

1076
01:56:31,000 --> 01:56:38,000
And then they had the Minnesota Twins come into town, a team that had beaten them 11 times already in 16 meetings.

1077
01:56:39,000 --> 01:56:43,000
They had to win the two games at the end of the season with the Twins no matter what anybody else might do.

1078
01:56:43,000 --> 01:56:45,000
And they were able to do it.

1079
01:56:46,000 --> 01:56:47,000
So it's that kind of a ball club.

1080
01:56:48,000 --> 01:56:52,000
And we were discussing it last night, some of us, and Tony Kupac included.

1081
01:56:53,000 --> 01:57:00,000
And he said the interesting thing about World Series competition, and you've played in seven of them, T.Rico, you might be able to bear this out or not.

1082
01:57:01,000 --> 01:57:08,000
But Tony said the more World Series you're in, the more you get to realize what it's all about and the more pressure you feel.

1083
01:57:08,000 --> 01:57:18,000
When you're a youngster in it and you've never been in it before, maybe it doesn't bother you quite as much because you're just kind of thrilled about being there and it doesn't quite hit you so much.

1084
01:57:19,000 --> 01:57:20,000
How do you feel about that?

1085
01:57:21,000 --> 01:57:25,000
Well, I discussed that a little bit with Tony today, and he said that I was talking about that.

1086
01:57:26,000 --> 01:57:27,000
I don't agree with him, but I told him so.

1087
01:57:27,000 --> 01:57:38,000
Because playing in a World Series is always kind of nerve-wracking to me, Ken, and I played one when I was about 20 or 21 my first year in 1941.

1088
01:57:39,000 --> 01:57:41,000
And I played one in my career rather late.

1089
01:57:42,000 --> 01:57:51,000
But it's a great thrill just to be in the World Series, but I think that I felt the pressure in every game and every series.

1090
01:57:51,000 --> 01:57:56,000
I don't care whether I was young or whether I was old, but once the game started, I believe I lost it.

1091
01:57:57,000 --> 01:58:04,000
Well, I think that would be very understandable, and I suppose a veteran might lose it a little earlier than a newcomer.

1092
01:58:05,000 --> 01:58:10,000
But I suppose, again, you get down to a matter of the makeup of the individual and how he reacts to it.

1093
01:58:11,000 --> 01:58:12,000
That's true.

1094
01:58:13,000 --> 01:58:14,000
One of those things.

1095
01:58:14,000 --> 01:58:23,000
Right now, we'll have the final totals for you once again in just one minute.

1096
01:58:24,000 --> 01:58:39,000
You know, most of the time, I guess we get another look at Bob Gibson tomorrow, and if I ever saw a pitcher that looked more overpine than he did in that first game up there, Boston, I can't remember when.

1097
01:58:39,000 --> 01:58:45,000
He's not too much of a curveball pitcher, but he just keeps firing the ball hard.

1098
01:58:46,000 --> 01:58:47,000
There's not much of a man in him.

1099
01:58:48,000 --> 01:58:51,000
Well, everybody on the Red Sox ball club team was very, very much impressed with him.

1100
01:58:52,000 --> 01:58:59,000
For most of them, it was the first time they'd seen Bob Gibson, of course, and they were very much impressed.

1101
01:58:59,000 --> 01:59:12,000
The question I would ask you is, for a fellow who is, as they say, a power pitcher to come back after so brief a time, is he going to be able to throw that hard again tomorrow?

1102
01:59:13,000 --> 01:59:15,000
Well, they say, Ken, I haven't seen that much of him, Ken.

1103
01:59:16,000 --> 01:59:26,000
And another thing, as you said, they had never seen Bob Gibson before, and the second time around, it may be a little bit more helpful to them.

1104
01:59:26,000 --> 01:59:32,000
They may not be so hard to find, and it should be a real interesting ballgame.

1105
01:59:33,000 --> 01:59:38,000
But I don't think a power pitcher has to come back that fast with maybe those tough odds.

1106
01:59:39,000 --> 01:59:52,000
Well, it might be. Now, Jose Santiago, of course, he has been in some clutch ballgames down the stretch for the Red Sox, and he'll get the nod tomorrow for Boston, with Jim Launborg slated to work here on Monday.

1107
01:59:52,000 --> 01:59:59,000
And Santiago, in the early stages of the first World Series game, had trouble with his breaking stuff.

1108
02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:04,000
He couldn't keep it down, and he has got to be able to keep it down in order to be effective.

1109
02:00:05,000 --> 02:00:12,000
And he's had to get grooved after a while, and it's very possible that he'll be able to come up with a strong performance again.

1110
02:00:12,000 --> 02:00:27,000
One of the things that should not be overlooked about today's game, I thought, Sewe, from the Red Sox's standpoint, was the drop turned in by Gary Wazlowski, who came in and took three perfect innings, setting down nine men in a row.
