00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:16,000
On October 12, 1967, the St. Louis Cardinals faced the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park for Game 7 of the 1967 World Series.

3
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:21,000
The Red Sox had fought back from a 3-games-to-1 deficit to force a Game 7.

4
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:27,000
And this is the NBC Radio broadcast of the final game featuring announcers Pee Wee Reese and Jim Simpson.

5
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:36,000
Jim Lombard down looking to Elton Hart into the wind up the kick and the first pitch of the ball game.

6
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:44,000
A little bit outside, a curve ball. Defensively for the Red Sox, Scott at first.

7
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:48,000
Second base, Andrew. Shortstop, Petrocelli at third base.

8
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:53,000
Boy, the pitch by Lombard to Brock. The ball hit out in the left field.

9
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:57,000
Yostritsky going to, that ball may be in there. Yostritsky catches up with it.

10
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:06,000
A great play by Kyle Yostritsky starting this ball game off right in that left field corner.

11
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:14,000
And it looked like Brock may have dropped this game off with an extra base hit.

12
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:21,000
Yostritsky playing over toward center, had a long way to run, but he's fast and he got there and he made the play.

13
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:29,000
Kurt Blood, 4 for 25, batting 160. The first pitch by Lombard gets topped up out into center field.

14
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:39,000
Reggie Smith could have no trouble with it underneath it and takes it for out number two.

15
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:47,000
There has been only one previous 4-3 series in which the two seventh game starters have two and 0 records for the series.

16
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:53,000
1925, Walter Johnson of Washington and Nick Aldridge at the Pittsburgh club.

17
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,000
Walter Johnson went all the way, but they lost the ball game 9-7.

18
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:04,000
Jim Lombard, picking the Roger Mares. Her ball went after Kyle Strike 1.

19
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:13,000
And you're going to hear noise all day. It flew away when the top half of the first inning here at Fenway Park, in Boston, the seventh game of the World Series.

20
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Jim Lombard picked his pitch. Better rolling inside. Elston Hart wanted that one.

21
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:30,000
The count, one ball and one strike. Mares had a good series. He's batting 3-48, 8 for 23. He has one home run.

22
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:37,000
And that was the one run that they got the cardinal draw for Jim Lombard over in Bush City. Here's the pitch.

23
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:43,000
Back to the middle. Andrews backhand to ball. No chance to throw out Roger Mares.

24
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:48,000
Both Lombard had a shot at that ball. Right back to the middle. He put his glove down, did not come up with it.

25
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Andrews, knowing that he had no chance to throw out Mares, just held onto the ball.

26
00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:02,000
So Mares, on his first base, was the first baser of the ball game.

27
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:15,000
And it brings up Orlando Cepeda, 3 for 24. He has one run batted in. Batting 1-2-5.

28
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,000
The umpires in today's game. Stevens behind home plate. Bollock at first.

29
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:26,000
Umonk at second. Donatelli at third. The left fielder, Rungy at the right fielder, Paul Pryor.

30
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Orlando Cepeda, way back in that batter's box. Elston Hart gives the target. Lombard looks at Mares at first.

31
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:41,000
Here's the pitch. Almost got him. Little inside. Ball one. It's two away.

32
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:47,000
We're in the top half of the first inning. Orlando with that big bat of his.

33
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:52,000
Thirty-six inches, 40 ounces. Right down on the end of it. Lombard looks at Mares. Here's the pitch.

34
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:59,000
Inside. Ball two. Hart out in front of home plate, massaging the ball.

35
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:09,000
Says something to Jim Lombard. Cepeda having trouble with that batter.

36
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:16,000
As we said yesterday, he doesn't seem to be fooled on the pitches. He just can't make contact.

37
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:22,000
The Q&O pitch. Here it is. Gather out to Mike Andrews at second base. He'll go to George Scott over first.

38
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:27,000
And that's off of Cepeda. And that's off of the Carbos here in the first inning of thin-way play.

39
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,000
So the score,

40
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,000
and the Boston Red Sox coming to bat.

41
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:39,000
With Peeley Rees, this is Harry Carrey. Joe Foy steps him in the batter's box to get things started.

42
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:44,000
For the Red Sox here in the bottom of the first. OK, Peeley. Bob Gibson.

43
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:51,000
He's won two games in this series. Thirteen and six all in the year. Facing Joe Foy. Ends the line up the pit.

44
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:59,000
Outside, ball one. And as we've said so many times, Bob Gibson, he gets right back on that rubber as soon as he gets the ball from the catcher.

45
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:05,000
He is ready to pitch. Into the wind up. Joe Foy, springs. Bows it back.

46
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:10,000
One ball and one strike. Defensively for the Cardinals. Cepeda at first. Second base.

47
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:16,000
Javier, shortstop. Max ball. Third base. Shannon. In left field. Brock.

48
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:23,000
Into the wind up the pitch by Gibson. A curve ball. Low and outside. Out in center field. Way out there is Kurt Blood.

49
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:28,000
In right field, Roger Maas, the catcher. Tim McCarver. And the pitcher, of course, Bob Gibson.

50
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:36,000
Into the wind up. The two and one pitch to Foy. He started. Check these swings. Two and one. Inside.

51
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:40,000
Joe Foy leading things off for the Red Sox here in the bottom half of the first inning.

52
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,000
The Cardinals fail to score in the first inning.

53
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:50,000
Into the wind up the pitch by Gibson. It's too high.

54
00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:04,000
So Bob Gibson, walks the first man he faces. And Harry, he doesn't do that too often.

55
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,000
No, he doesn't.

56
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:20,000
I can't lose. Batting 400. He's 4 for 10. He chokes up on the bat. Here's the pitch. He's once again down the first base line.

57
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:27,000
Cepeda up with her flip the ball over to Javier, covering first. Moving down to second base, Joe Foy.

58
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:38,000
Here's the tough situation for the Cardinals. They can't walk anybody intentionally in the very first inning.

59
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:44,000
Again, here's a real hard hitter up there. Todd Gostinsky. It's interesting to see what they do.

60
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:50,000
But I think that Biff Williams may have this in mind. He's just going to test the Cardinals and see if he's going to pitch to them.

61
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:58,000
It looks like they are. It's pretty hard to walk a man in the first inning intentionally. They're going to pitch to Jostinsky.

62
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:05,000
Bob Gibson, the kick. In there, just got the inside counterstrike one.

63
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:14,000
You better believe he will be careful with this fellow. Jostinsky, 9 for 22. Three home runs in this series.

64
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:23,000
Batting in a 2-4-0-9. Down at second base, Joe Foy. Jostinsky holds that bat high. Gibson looks back at Foy at second.

65
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:33,000
And wakes the wheel, flips the ball to Max Foy. As it looked like Max Foy was shot stopped with pointy cut in back of Foy, his ball broke off at second base.

66
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,000
Like he may be going.

67
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:43,000
One strike. On his 50th, it's one away. Where's the bottom half the first inning.

68
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:50,000
Gibson looks back at second. Here's the pitch. Best ball outside. Makes it count one ball and one strike.

69
00:07:50,000 --> 00:08:07,000
Bob Gibson trying to win a third game here in this seventh game of the World Series.

70
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:16,000
Here's the pitch. He's sent a little lazy looper out to shortstop Max Foy. Fips his glass and takes it. And Gibson jammed him with that pitch.

71
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:23,000
It's two away. Brings up Ken Halson.

72
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:30,000
Talking about things you don't see too often. You don't see as much. You get jammed too much with a fast ball.

73
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:35,000
Halson, one for nine. Batting 111.

74
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:42,000
Gibson checking with McCarver. His pitcher, McCarver giving it a side.

75
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:49,000
Gibson sets. Looks back at second. Here's the pitch. Curveball in there for fast strike one.

76
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,000
Gibson looks to me like he may be changing his pattern.

77
00:08:53,000 --> 00:09:02,000
And in the first two games he started off with a lot of fast balls. Today he's throwing a few breaking balls already.

78
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:07,000
One strike on Ken Halson. Here's the pitch. Swinging a nice strike here. Good fast ball.

79
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:12,000
He's on top of Halson with two strikes.

80
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:17,000
Joe Foy down at second base. It's two away.

81
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:23,000
Bottom half to first innings. This game has just gotten underway.

82
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:28,000
Halson way back in that batter's box. Moving that bat back and forth. Now he's set so is Gibson.

83
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:35,000
The pitch. Fast ball in there for fast right three. Halson part looking so that's off of the roadside.

84
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:43,000
Near the bottom half the first inning. The Scores. Sandler is nothing and Baston nothing.

85
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:52,000
Top half of the second inning coming up and Tim McCarver and Mike Shannon and Huling and Javier will be the first three hitters coming up for the St. Louis Cardinals.

86
00:09:52,000 --> 00:10:01,000
No score. Bob Gibson after walking the first man really went to his fast ball and good breaking ball and got the next three men out.

87
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:05,000
Here's McCarver leading it off for the Cardinals.

88
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:11,000
Top half of the second inning. McCarver, Shannon and Javier. Jim Lombard. He's ready.

89
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:20,000
Halson Hart giving the sign. Jim kicks that big leg up in the air high. Here's the pitch. The ball is popped up.

90
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:30,000
Puts his glasses underneath it and takes it for at number one.

91
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:36,000
Both of these pitchers, if you can tell this, look sharp.

92
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:47,000
Mike Shannon. He has one home run in the series. Five for twenty batting two fifty. The big third baseman.

93
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:53,000
Hits from the right side right down on the end of that bat. Lombard. The kick. The pitch.

94
00:10:53,000 --> 00:11:01,000
A third ball. He was taking all the way. It's in there for call strike one. Both of these pitchers. Lombard for the Red Sox. Gibson for the Cardinals.

95
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:08,000
Had good control. There's no need of taking anything. They're very solid walk anyone. There's a sign on third ball.

96
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:15,000
Come on. Missed. Track two.

97
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:20,000
And that's been the pattern. Lombard has followed against Shannon.

98
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:28,000
Try to get that first striking on it. Then sat on him with that curve ball. He comes way around but away at third base.

99
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,000
No balls. Two strikes on Shannon. It's went away.

100
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:39,000
Another side on. The first strike out.

101
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,000
For Jim Lombard.

102
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:51,000
And that'll bring up a little fellow that's had a real fine series. Not only with the batting three thirty three seven for twenty one.

103
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:57,000
But what a series he's had in that field. He's made a couple of great plays at second base.

104
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:02,000
Javier. Eddie Pursue. The shortstop.

105
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:10,000
Utility infielder for the Cardinals. Says you really can't appreciate this fellow until you see him play and be with him day in and day out.

106
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:18,000
Quite a player. Chokes up on the bat. Lombard kick. Here's the pitch. It's foul straight back. Elson Hart. Over to his right.

107
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:22,000
Stops on it. Right back in the stands. Strike one. It's two away.

108
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:28,000
We're in the top half of second inning here at Fenway Park. The seventh game of the World Series.

109
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:33,000
Harry Carey and I'm Pee Wee Reese bringing you this seventh game.

110
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:39,000
And it certainly has been a pleasure. Bringing you all seven games of the World Series here on radio.

111
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:46,000
The kick for Lombard. There's a face hit out into left field. Jostemsky takes it all one half.

112
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:53,000
And that's the second hit for the Cardinals. One by Mass and one by Javier.

113
00:12:53,000 --> 00:13:05,000
That's the eighth hit in the series for Javier. He likes to run. And as Harry told you, Maxwell likes to hit and run.

114
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:14,000
Let's see what they do. We'll watch Javier at first. Lombard watching over at first. He's not going. A curve ball in there. Strike one.

115
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:20,000
We have the pitcher up next, Bob Gibson. And he is not a bad hitter.

116
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:27,000
Maxwell steps back out of that box. Checks for these codes. Joe Schultz at third base. Coaching in first base. Dick Sissler.

117
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:36,000
That's for the Cardinals. Lombard takes it easy. Here's the pitch. And Elson Hart pitched out a thought that Javier may be going.

118
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:43,000
So that makes account one ball and one strike. Maxwell still checking with Joe Schultz. Steps out of the box.

119
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:48,000
Schultz giving the sign down at third. Touching the cap. The letters.

120
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:54,000
Well, if he gave anything, he's already given it because Maxwell's back in the Lombard. Clips over to first.

121
00:13:54,000 --> 00:14:02,000
And Javier had a pretty good lead. He may be going. One ball and one strike. It's two away. Top half to second inning.

122
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:13,000
Maxwell looking out at Lombard. Lombard going and he flips over to first again. And Javier diving back in there.

123
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:20,000
Javier gets a pretty good lead. Lombard looks over at Javier.

124
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:30,000
Here's the pitch. Javier made a bluff but he did not go in there. All strike two. And Hart came out behind that batter ready to throw.

125
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:39,000
A good bluff to Javier at first base. It's two away.

126
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:45,000
Macarvis started this inning off by popping up. Shannon struck out. Javier single.

127
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:53,000
Maxwell is a hitter with one ball and two strikes on him. The throw to first base. Javier back in plenty of time.

128
00:14:53,000 --> 00:15:06,000
Maxwell has two for 15. Batting 133. Jim Lombard. He's stooped over getting the sign.

129
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:18,000
Here's the pitch. Sadon Kerrball just missed. Two and two. He's tough on right handers. Tough to stay in there.

130
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:26,000
Maxwell checking with Schultz at third base. They're playing Maxwell straight away not too deep.

131
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:38,000
Lombard sets. Here's the pitch. There goes Javier. The thin side. Hart threw it. They got it. Javier was thrown out by Elston Howard at just third.

132
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:44,000
And that's all for the Carlton's here. They pop it. But they're one and a half in the play. It's the same rule.

133
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:53,000
It's time of nothing. And the Boston Red Sox, nothing.

134
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:58,000
Elston Howard made some throw. The pitch to Maxwell was low and inside right off his shoe pops.

135
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,000
And Howard had a spin around and throw and he threw perfectly.

136
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:11,000
George Scott takes the first pitch by Gibson outside. Ball one.

137
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:23,000
Interpreter, George Scott. Reggie Smith. Enrico Petruccelli. Here's the pitch by Gibson. Low and inside. Ball two.

138
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:30,000
Scott batting 227 in the series. He has five for 22.

139
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:37,000
He's choking on the bat a little bit today. Gibson. Kerrball. In there for Carlstrike one.

140
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:43,000
That's what makes this fellow a good pitcher. He can throw hard, but he kind of finesses you every once in a while.

141
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:50,000
He gets behind you, he can still get that Kerrball over. There it is. A good fastball sprung out on this strike two.

142
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:55,000
And looked like that pitch was right in the power of George Scott, but just a little bit inside.

143
00:16:55,000 --> 00:17:01,000
He tried to chop down on him. No contact. Two and two's account. Gibson the wind up the kick.

144
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:07,000
Kerrball, we've got him looking. George Scott looks at the third strike.

145
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,000
And that's the second strike out.

146
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:18,000
By Bob Gibson. That brings up Reggie Smith, the center fielder for the Red Sox.

147
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:25,000
You know the Cardinals had played in ten World Series. They've won seven of the games.

148
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:35,000
And five of those seven wins went to the seventh game. And the Cardinals have never lost a series that they've gone to seven games in.

149
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:40,000
Reggie Smith. Gibson. First pitch, run on miss, strike one.

150
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:44,000
It's one away. Win the bottom half the second inning.

151
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:52,000
Here at Fenway Park in Boston, the seventh game of the World Series. Gibson pitches.

152
00:17:52,000 --> 00:18:00,000
Reggie Smith started, checked his way. I guess he got a piece of it. Strike two.

153
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:07,000
Bob Gibson, working fast. McCarver, giving the signs. Ends the wind up the kick. The 0-2 pitch.

154
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:15,000
A grounder after second base and Javier on a big hop. Rips the ball over to Cepeda. And that's all for Reggie Smith.

155
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:24,000
So it's two up and two down here in the bottom half of the second inning. Pettuselli gets a nice hand.

156
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:30,000
He's the shot stop for the Red Sox. He was in a little batting swamp until yesterday.

157
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:36,000
He just knocked two out of the park. He has good power. Gibson curve ball, low.

158
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:42,000
And I saw on the paper with Pettuselli, said the two home runs he hit yesterday were fastballs.

159
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:51,000
Gibson starts him off with a curve today. The 1-0 pitch. Another curve ball, swing on, miss, strike one.

160
00:18:51,000 --> 00:19:00,000
They play Pettuselli, especially Kirk Flood out in center field around to left center, the full.

161
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:08,000
Pettuselli, Gibson, the kick. Another curve ball, swing on, miss, strike two. One ball and two strikes.

162
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:18,000
The first time Pettuselli saw Gibson in the first game, Gibson struck him out three times.

163
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:25,000
One ball, two strikes. The kick by Gibson, the pitch. A curve ball foul straight back.

164
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:35,000
And a count remains one and two. Coaching at first base by the Red Sox, the great second baseman Bobby Doerr.

165
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:41,000
Over at third base, Ed Patowski. He struck Pettuselli out and that's all for the Red Sox.

166
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:48,000
Here in the bottom half of second, the score. The St. Louis Cardinals nothing and the Boston Red Sox nothing.

167
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:53,000
Now Maxwell is a hitter leading off the top half of third.

168
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:58,000
You remember he was a hitter when they threw out Javier at second base trying to steal. Curve ball.

169
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:07,000
One inside. Ball one. It'll be Maxwell, Gibson, and Brock.

170
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:13,000
Rondberg kicks that arm. Fastball hit down at third base round, down at side.

171
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:19,000
Leontar down at third. Bates it, the fans give him a little blaze.

172
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:26,000
What a job these umpires have done in the series, eh? Certainly have, Peewee.

173
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:33,000
One ball, one strike. Calling time. It must be something draped over the wall in left field.

174
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:37,000
Frank Umont, the second base umpire, started it.

175
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:44,000
And there it is, a towel it looks like.

176
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:50,000
Well I think it's a towel. It looks to me like a fan.

177
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:55,000
Climbing up in the screen half here for they're getting him down. This game is ready to start.

178
00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:01,000
Rondberg, pitch to Maxwell, hit out into center field. Ready to step going way back, way back, way back.

179
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,000
It's off of the wall. Maxwell, down to second. Going into third.

180
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:14,000
Kinnhausen over to pick up the ball and they hold on to it as Maxwell hits one off of that center front field wall straight away in center field.

181
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:23,000
That's unusual power for Dow Maxwell who this year hit one home run during the regular season and that was inside the park.

182
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:28,000
He really hit this one yesterday in a fly ball deep in the center that surprised everybody.

183
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:33,000
And today he surprised them even more by hitting one off the top of the center field wall.

184
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,000
Well it's a couple for Dow Maxwell.

185
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,000
Being off the third inning, the infield is in.

186
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:43,000
Bob Gibson is the hitter, the pitcher for the Cardinals.

187
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:47,000
Rondberg looks so with third. Maxwell here's a kick to pitch.

188
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:52,000
Curveball in there for Carlisle. You know Harry, Maxwell hit a couple of hard balls to center field yesterday with Paul.

189
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,000
Yes, that's the one that I was referring to, up here.

190
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:59,000
It's unusual for him to hit straight away. He usually hits the ball towards right field.

191
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:06,000
The pitch by Rondberg. Outside one ball and one strike.

192
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:10,000
So the Cardinals are threatening here in the top half of third and eighth.

193
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:16,000
The Red Sox have the infield pulled in with no one away.

194
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,000
Gibson's a hitter.

195
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,000
Rondberg looking down at his catcher Elson Howard. Looks over at Maxwell.

196
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:27,000
Here's the kick for pitch. Curveball inside.

197
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,000
Two balls, one strike on Gibson.

198
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:36,000
Gibson checks with Joe Schultz at third base.

199
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:40,000
Not a bad hitter.

200
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:44,000
He will just be trying to get a piece of it. Here's the kick to pitch.

201
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:49,000
That fastball just got the outside. Not a mix of counts, two and two.

202
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:54,000
Maxwell down at third. Just got two tripping off the center field wall.

203
00:22:54,000 --> 00:23:00,000
Oh, that smoke out there. I believe the building's on fire out beyond the center field fence.

204
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:07,000
That's all we need, Harry.

205
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:11,000
Two and two. The cat on top gets it. Here's the pitch.

206
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:17,000
A nine-five, nine-five, third base.

207
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:23,000
He's through. Over to the bag with Maxwell being very alert.

208
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:28,000
When he saw the ball hit, he went back to the bay.

209
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:31,000
And Gibson really cleaned that one.

210
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:35,000
But all it is is a big out.

211
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:42,000
It's supposed to be a game of skill, not bravery, Peewee.

212
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:46,000
So it's one away now. Maxwell still down at third.

213
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:53,000
And it brings up Lou Brock. The infield is still in.

214
00:23:53,000 --> 00:24:00,000
On board. Set. Here's the pitch. Curveball rolling outside.

215
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:05,000
Now what? Against Longboard, Brock is nothing out of nine.

216
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:09,000
It's the only pitch he's been able to stop him so far.

217
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,000
Well, let's see how he's trying to pitch him. That pitch was going outside.

218
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,000
It looked like Longboard wanted it.

219
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,000
Here's the kick, the pitch.

220
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:21,000
Maxwell outside. Ball two.

221
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:25,000
It's one away. The runner's still down at third base.

222
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:32,000
Down Maxwell, the Cardinals, with a top half to third inning. No runs for the Cardinals, but they have three hits.

223
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:37,000
Boston has no runs on no hits.

224
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:42,000
Lou Brock with a count of two balls. No strikes on him. Steps out of there.

225
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:48,000
As Longboard takes a little bit too much time.

226
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:52,000
Takes a little bit too much time for Brock. Brock now checking with Shultz.

227
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,000
He's coached third base.

228
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,000
Longboard just standing there staring down at Brock.

229
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,000
Now he's ready. Here's the pitch. Two and two.

230
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:09,000
Now foul out the left. Back up in the stands.

231
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:14,000
And again, two balls and one strike.

232
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,000
Brock had a fine series.

233
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:26,000
He has four stolen bases, has one home run, three runs bad at him.

234
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:31,000
A cool 400. Right now it's two balls and one strike on him.

235
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,000
Longboard, here's the pitch.

236
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:42,000
And missed strike two. A good fast ball. On the way.

237
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:46,000
That ball was by Brock.

238
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,000
Looks like he may be looking for something.

239
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,000
And the count of two and two. One away.

240
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:55,000
Maxwell still down at third.

241
00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:02,000
They play Brock deep and straight away at the infielders end.

242
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:06,000
Longboard looks over at Maxwell's third. The kick, the pitch.

243
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:18,000
A foul off the left. Back in the stands.

244
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:23,000
No runs. Three hits by the Cardinals.

245
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,000
No runs, no hits for the Red Sox.

246
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:29,000
Longboard against Gibson.

247
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,000
They have both won two games in the series.

248
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,000
The seventh and final game of the World Series.

249
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,000
Here's the pitch. It's packed up.

250
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:40,000
That's a shot, fast ball. Back here to the edge of the grass.

251
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:44,000
And Maxwell cannot throw a net.

252
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:54,000
And it's two away.

253
00:26:54,000 --> 00:27:00,000
Longboard. Not out of a jam yet.

254
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:09,000
But he's getting in pretty good shape as Maxwell started this inning off with a triple off the center field wall.

255
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,000
Two outs later he's still down there.

256
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,000
And it brings up Kurt Flood.

257
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:20,000
Who's flying out to center field his last time. The first pitch turned his two-eye. Ball one.

258
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,000
He knows the first pitch to practically every hitter is tight.

259
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,000
The inside part of the plate.

260
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,000
He seems to have a pattern, Harry.

261
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:35,000
That fast ball tight inside and breaking pitch away.

262
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,000
That's a ball hit out of center field to base hit.

263
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:42,000
Reggie Smith takes it all one-half in. The score is Maxwell the first run in this ball game.

264
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:46,000
And Kurt Flood gets his fifth hit of the series.

265
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,000
Dropping in down Maxwell.

266
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:54,000
So the Cardinals go out in front of this ball game by a score of one and nothing.

267
00:27:54,000 --> 00:28:02,000
Longboard.

268
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:11,000
Doing a fine job of pitching getting two outs. Then Kurt Flood gets a base hit to score Maxwell. Roger Maas with a hitter.

269
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,000
Longboard looks over Kurt Flood. Here is the pitch.

270
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,000
Now hit by Scott out in the right field to base hit.

271
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:23,000
Up at the ball pass and going into third is Kurt Flood. McAfee, Mace, and he's holding up that third base.

272
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,000
On at first base, Roger Maas.

273
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,000
He we the Cardinals now have five hits.

274
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,000
We're in the third inning of this game.

275
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:37,000
In the first two games of Longboard pitch, a total of 18 innings, they have a total of four hits.

276
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:41,000
So that shot rest must make a difference.

277
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:45,000
Well, I would say we have to, Harry.

278
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:50,000
This fellow, as I said, pitched 290-some-odd innings during the season.

279
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:54,000
And they had a tough penitentiary all the way and he is a big man.

280
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,000
He had to pitch Sunday to beat the Minnesota Twins with a tough ball game.

281
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:01,000
I saw it and so did most of the fans over the country.

282
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,000
We had paired the game on NBC television.

283
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,000
So he's had a tough year, but don't count him out yet.

284
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:11,000
Sepeda, the first pitch inside ball one.

285
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:15,000
Harry, I hope this fire over there doesn't spread.

286
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:19,000
Look at that smoke billowing upwards.

287
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,000
Still haven't seen any flame.

288
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:25,000
Where there's smoke, there's fire.

289
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,000
The one and only pitch to Orlando Sepeda.

290
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,000
Has a ball hit Harry, but it's fouled and a left field line.

291
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,000
He was a count up at one ball and one strike.

292
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,000
On at third base, Kurt Blood.

293
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:40,000
On at first base, Roger Mares.

294
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,000
One ball, one strike on Orlando Sepeda.

295
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,000
Had a rough series.

296
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,000
The baby bowl has one run batted in.

297
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,000
Three for 25 now.

298
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:54,000
He got it out the first time after the second baseman, Mike Andrews.

299
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,000
Run barn.

300
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,000
Here's the pitch to Sepeda in there.

301
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:03,000
Out like two.

302
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,000
Two away.

303
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,000
Runners on first and third.

304
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,000
It can't be a serious fire.

305
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,000
The smoke's only coming out at the top.

306
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:14,000
Hehehehehe.

307
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,000
Well, we'll watch it.

308
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,000
Two strikes on Sepeda.

309
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,000
It's two away when the top half of the third and the Cardinals have one run.

310
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,000
They lead this game one and nothing.

311
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:24,000
To kick the pitch.

312
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,000
It's high and inside.

313
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:30,000
Ball two.

314
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,000
Jim McCarver.

315
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:37,000
In the on deck circle.

316
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:38,000
Run barn.

317
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,000
The big winner for the Red Sox.

318
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,000
Pitched the big games all year.

319
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:47,000
They won 22 and lost nine during their regular season.

320
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:51,000
And as we said, what a dog fight that was in the American League.

321
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,000
Run barn sets.

322
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:54,000
Looks at first and third.

323
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,000
Here's the pitch.

324
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:59,000
It gets away from Maston Hardt back up on the screen.

325
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:03,000
A big high bounce and cutting in the score from third base.

326
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,000
Kurt Flood going down to second.

327
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,000
Roger Maez.

328
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:12,000
So it's a wild pitch by run barn.

329
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:18,000
The count is now three and two on Orlando Sepeda.

330
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:26,000
And Peewee Jose Santiago is working on the Red Sox bullpen.

331
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:31,000
Well hey, we saw run barn pitch the first two games.

332
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,000
Up for now, it doesn't look like the same fella.

333
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:35,000
It doesn't.

334
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:36,000
He's not sharp.

335
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,000
So three and two pitch to Sepeda.

336
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:42,000
And down to after the shots, that Pemper Sully, the long throw over to George Stock.

337
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,000
And that's off to Sepeda and that's off to the Cardinals here.

338
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,000
And the top half to Ferdinand.

339
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:51,000
But they came up with two big runs and the score after two and a half innings of play.

340
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,000
It's the Cardinals two and the Boston Red Sox nothing.

341
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,000
This is Harry Carey with Peewee Reese.

342
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,000
The Cardinals are out in front with the result of a triple by not one.

343
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,000
They sit tight, what a nice and a wild pitch.

344
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,000
Two to nothing as we go into the bottom of the third, Peewee.

345
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:11,000
Nelson Hart, Bob Gibson's first pitch turn, low, ball one.

346
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:16,000
The Red Sox will have to play catch up baseball now.

347
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,000
Bob Gibson, the kick to pitch.

348
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,000
Little lazy pop is he jamming with it.

349
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,000
Sepeda down at first base in fair territory takes it.

350
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:29,000
So it's one up and one down here in the bottom half to Ferdinand.

351
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:35,000
Ron Bard, the pitcher.

352
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:39,000
Gets a nice hand from the fans.

353
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:43,000
Gibson, an overpowering pitcher.

354
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,000
So many of them.

355
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:49,000
Kings of the National League manager, Gene Mock told me that the manager of the Phillies.

356
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:55,000
Ron Bard swings and misses, strike one.

357
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:56,000
He just keeps fine.

358
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,000
Here is the kick to pitch.

359
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,000
Third ball, little outside.

360
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,000
One ball and one strike.

361
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,000
Harry, when you lost this fellow during the season, I thought you'd lost the pinning.

362
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,000
Nelson Brow step right in and did a tremendous job, Peewee.

363
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:14,000
Ron Bard tries a checky swing, goes around, one ball and two strikes on him.

364
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,000
It's one away with the bottom half to third inning.

365
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,000
Gibson has not given up a hit.

366
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,000
The Cardinals have two runs on five hits from the bottom half to third inning.

367
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,000
Here is the kick to pitch.

368
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,000
Now fastball and then a tanny.

369
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:33,000
Ron Bard, top looking, and that is the third strikeout, fourth strikeout.

370
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,000
For Bob Gibson, it's two away.

371
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,000
Brings up Joe Ford.

372
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:42,000
He walked his first time up.

373
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,000
The big third baseman for the Red Sox.

374
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,000
Gibson in the windup, the kick.

375
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:49,000
Third ball in there, strike one.

376
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:53,000
And there's no use taking against this fellow.

377
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:57,000
He's always around that plate.

378
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,000
Now the curveball just missed.

379
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,000
Sat on curveball, outside.

380
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:02,000
One ball and one strike.

381
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:08,000
It's two away.

382
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,000
The kick by Gibson.

383
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,000
Fastball just got that outside corner.

384
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:13,000
One ball and two strikes.

385
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:16,000
Well, Harry, are you satisfied now?

386
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:17,000
Here comes the fire department.

387
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,000
Boy, yeah.

388
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:24,000
I bet it, it might be a little late.

389
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,000
The one and two pitch to Foy.

390
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:29,000
Just barely got a piece of his balance straight back.

391
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:37,000
If I were out in center field in those bases, I may be a little concerned right now.

392
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,000
One ball, two strikes on Foy.

393
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:40,000
It's two away.

394
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,000
You have a lot of friends out there.

395
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,000
They heard your remark and they began to wave.

396
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:48,000
So there are a lot of train sister radios out there.

397
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:56,000
And that's off of the Red Sox here in the bottom half, the third inning.

398
00:34:56,000 --> 00:35:02,000
So the score after three full innings, the Cardinals two, and the Boston Red Sox nothing.

399
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,000
Half the fourth inning.

400
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,000
The Cardinals two runs on five hits.

401
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:11,000
And Harry, I must say, those three innings went pretty fast.

402
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:12,000
It's your turn.

403
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,000
Come on in here.

404
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:14,000
Harry Kay.

405
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:15,000
Thank you, Pee-wee.

406
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:16,000
Tim McCarver will lead it off.

407
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,000
Popped up his first down up.

408
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,000
He's two out of 20 in the series.

409
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,000
Cardinals leading two to nothing.

410
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,000
Brown Borg first pitches a curve ball low.

411
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:28,000
Brown Borg working with two days rest.

412
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:32,000
Not as sharp as he was in his first two starts.

413
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,000
And that's understandable.

414
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:40,000
This boy has had a tremendous series regardless of how this game comes out.

415
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,000
Just as he's had a great season.

416
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:46,000
The pitch to McCarver, and it's a little bit outside at the knees.

417
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,000
Two balls, no strikes.

418
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:54,000
McCarver, nothing out of seven against the pitching of Jim Lomborg.

419
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:59,000
Bob Gibson has panned five men in the first three innings.

420
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:04,000
Gibson shooting for his fifth straight World Series victory.

421
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,000
Here's the pitch.

422
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,000
A fastball in there at the letters to strike his score.

423
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:13,000
They're at Southwood four, a third base, Petrocelli at shortstop,

424
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,000
Andrews at second, and Scott at first.

425
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,000
Behind the plate is Elston Howard.

426
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,000
Lomborg the pitcher.

427
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:23,000
Yastrumsky in left, Smith in center, and Harrelson in right.

428
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,000
Two balls and a strike to pitch on the way.

429
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:30,000
Fastball, swung and missed, and he lost his plastic helmet on that one.

430
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,000
And the count is even two and two.

431
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:38,000
The Cardinal hitters think they've been chasing a lot of bad balls against Lomborg.

432
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,000
And there was an example of it.

433
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,000
Two balls, two strikes.

434
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,000
Nobody on, nobody out.

435
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:46,000
Top of the fourth.

436
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,000
Cardinal's out in front, two to nothing.

437
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,000
Here's the pitch.

438
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,000
Curveball low and inside.

439
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:57,000
McCarver had a notion, started to swing, stopped, and then got out of the way.

440
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:05,000
The count is four, three balls, two strikes, and the fire has been put out in that building across the way.

441
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:08,000
Three balls, two strikes.

442
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:11,000
McCarver left-handed down to the pitch.

443
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:15,000
He bounces one foul off his foot and then fair down to Scott.

444
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:20,000
So he's still alive, although he's hobbling around a little bit.

445
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,000
That one hit him right off the instep.

446
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:28,000
McCarver picks up the rosin bag, dries off his hands, and returns to the play.

447
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:33,000
McCarver in the 1964 World Series against the Yankees was a sensation.

448
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:36,000
He hit.478 or something like that.

449
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,000
In this series, the Red Sox have stopped him.

450
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:42,000
.478 was right.

451
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,000
Now the signal.

452
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,000
Three-two pitch. Here it is.

453
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,000
Ground ball to the second baseman. That should be easy.

454
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:51,000
Andrews has it. Over to Scott for the up.

455
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:55,000
McCarver rolls for Mike Andrews.

456
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,000
And that'll bring up Mike Shannon.

457
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,000
He fanned his first time up.

458
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:04,000
He's nothing out of seven against Longborg.

459
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:09,000
That fire that we referred to was in a railroad car on a siding across the way.

460
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:13,000
I'm happy to report that it's been extinguished.

461
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,000
The pitch to Shannon.

462
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,000
Pass ball in there, strike his car.

463
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,000
One strike and no ball.

464
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:27,000
Longborg actually looks sharper here in this fourth inning than he did earlier in the game.

465
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,000
Seems to find a real good cross ball is again.

466
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:30,000
Here's the pitch.

467
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,000
And it's inside, forcing Shannon back.

468
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:36,000
The count is even and a ball and a strike.

469
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,000
The Cardinals two runs, five hits, no errors so far.

470
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:42,000
And the Red Sox nothing across.

471
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,000
One man out, nobody on base, top of the fourth.

472
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,000
Two to nothing in favor of St. Louis.

473
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,000
Here's the pitch to Shannon.

474
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:52,000
Curve ball fouled back and out of play.

475
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:58,000
Mike Shannon homered earlier in this series.

476
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:06,000
He hit a homer in the 1964 World Series against Whitey Ford.

477
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:09,000
Three, two strikes and a ball.

478
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,000
One out, we're in the fourth inning of the pitch.

479
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,000
Bouncing ball to Foy.

480
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,000
He's got it.

481
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:16,000
Here's the peg.

482
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:17,000
In time.

483
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,000
So Foy throws out Shannon.

484
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,000
Two up, two down.

485
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:27,000
And that will bring up Javier, who's single this first time at bat, was out trying to steal.

486
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:31,000
The first Cardinal thrown out stealing, in fact, is the first Cardinal to try to steal,

487
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:38,000
with the exception of Lou Brock, who's had four stolen bases.

488
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:42,000
Javier, having himself a great series, he's two out of seven against Lombard.

489
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:48,000
He ruined Lombard's no hitter in the second game of the series here at Fenway Park.

490
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:54,000
Down the pitch, and who he lines one foul, and Joe Schultz, preferred base coach,

491
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:57,000
hit the duck to get out of the way of that one.

492
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:07,000
And now kind of loosens and vertebrae a little bit as he does a little dance.

493
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:11,000
Javier, no matter.

494
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,000
There are two men out.

495
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:19,000
Nobody on base, two to nothing in favor of the card.

496
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:22,000
Air ball, strike call.

497
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:25,000
The scoreboard says one and one, but that's got to be a mistake.

498
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:32,000
He fouled off the first pitch and just took the second one for a curved strike.

499
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,000
Now they're correcting it.

500
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:38,000
Javier, the bat.

501
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:42,000
Jim Lombard getting ready for a pitch.

502
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,000
Three call, the fastball.

503
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,000
There's Lombard's second strike out, and the Cardinals go down an order,

504
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:51,000
one, two, three, and a four.

505
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,000
And at the end of three and a half innings, the score remains single as two,

506
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:58,000
lost to nothing.

507
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,000
They go into the battle of the fourth.

508
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:09,000
The skies have been overcast, but the sun, for the first time, heats from behind the cloud.

509
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,000
And here's Mike Andrews to lead it off the first pitch.

510
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:16,000
He didn't mean to swing, half swing, and he fouls it off to the right.

511
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,000
Bobby Dore recovers it.

512
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,000
Bobby fumbled that one.

513
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:25,000
When he was the second baseman for the Red Sox, he rarely fumbled the ground ball.

514
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:31,000
He had an errorless record, as I recall, later broken.

515
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,000
Bob Gibson, Thompson fires.

516
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:34,000
There's the strike call.

517
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,000
Andrews short enough as if to bump.

518
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:40,000
Mike Andrews sacrificed his first time at bat.

519
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:44,000
He's had a good series, hitting 400 with four out of ten.

520
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:49,000
Leading off here on the fourth, two to nothing in favor of St. Louis.

521
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:53,000
Here's the pitch, curveball low.

522
00:41:53,000 --> 00:42:02,000
Gibson mixing his pitches more this afternoon than he has previously.

523
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:06,000
Mike Andrews, right-handed batter, chokes up a little bit.

524
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:09,000
Fouls back and out of play.

525
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,000
He got around late on a high fastball.

526
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:14,000
The decisive game of the World Series.

527
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:18,000
Whoever wins this one wins the booty, as it were.

528
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,000
The winner shares.

529
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:22,000
There's no tomorrow. This is it.

530
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:26,000
Mike Andrews waiting.

531
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,000
Two strikes and a ball.

532
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,000
And Gibson's fifth.

533
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,000
A tap.

534
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,000
Foul down the third baseline.

535
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:39,000
The carver pounces on it, but there's no reason to.

536
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:41,000
And so comes back to the play.

537
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:45,000
Shannon playing straightaway third base.

538
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:49,000
Andrews is played straightaway in the outfield.

539
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:53,000
Bob Gibson, who has fanned five in three innings, gets ready.

540
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,000
Two strikes and a ball.

541
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,000
Yes, Trensky will be next to the pitch.

542
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,000
He struck him out, called.

543
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,000
Andrews is called out on strike.

544
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:05,000
Strikeout number six for Bob Gibson.

545
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:11,000
And here's Carl Yastremski.

546
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:21,000
Gibson already has fanned as many in this game and won the fourth inning as he did in all of his shutout victories in his second game.

547
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,000
His second victory.

548
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:26,000
There's a pitch to Yastremski.

549
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:29,000
And it's a breaking ball low and inside.

550
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:35,000
Yastremski popped up to the shortstop Maxville his first down to bat.

551
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:39,000
He's had two out of nine against the pitching of Bob Gibson.

552
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:43,000
Carl Yastremski, the pitch to him.

553
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:50,000
Last ball he started the swing held up and it was high for ball two.

554
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:54,000
Yastremski hitting four oh nine in the series.

555
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:58,000
He's had nine hits for 20 total bases.

556
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:03,000
The most total bases of anybody in the series.

557
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:04,000
Now the signal.

558
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:07,000
Here's the windup and the pitch.

559
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,000
That ball in there is like his car.

560
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:13,000
We've talked about how hard Yastremski swings about.

561
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:22,000
I'm sure that's common knowledge now and it's significant that in seven games as hard as he swings he's only struck out once.

562
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:23,000
Now the windup.

563
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:25,000
Here's the pitch.

564
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:26,000
Bouncing ball to Javier.

565
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,000
Big Hoppy's got it.

566
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,000
Puts over the first in time.

567
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,000
Yastremski bounces out from Javier to the play.

568
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:34,000
Two out.

569
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:37,000
Only one man has reached base and none on a walk to lead our fans.

570
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:41,000
Joe Ford.

571
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,000
Ken Howson.

572
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:49,000
Was out on strike his first time up.

573
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,000
Gibson is fans sixth with me.

574
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:52,000
Bottom of the fourth.

575
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:53,000
Here's the pitch.

576
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:57,000
Swung and fouled back he had a good cut on a high fast ball.

577
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,000
One strike and no ball.

578
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:02,000
Ken Howson.

579
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:06,000
Charlie Finley's gift to the Boston Red Sox.

580
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:10,000
And to Howson as a matter of fact.

581
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,000
Now the windup for the pitch.

582
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,000
He swings and misses.

583
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:17,000
Strike two.

584
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,000
And Howson is in the hole.

585
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:20,000
Two strikes and nothing.

586
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:24,000
Gibson keeps pouring smoke.

587
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:28,000
I'm not referring now to that fire which has been extinguished.

588
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,000
We're in the bottom of the fourth.

589
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,000
Two to nothing in favor of the Cardinals.

590
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,000
Red Birds have had five hits.

591
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,000
Red Sox haven't had any yet.

592
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:40,000
They've got only one baserunner and he was stranded in the first inning.

593
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:45,000
The leadoff man, Joe Ford, walked and he sacrificed in the second.

594
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,000
But Yastremski popped up and Howson's sand.

595
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:51,000
Here's the pitch. Swung and fouled back.

596
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,000
Two strikes and nothing. Two out.

597
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,000
Bottom of the fourth. St. Louis leading.

598
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,000
Two to nothing.

599
00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:01,000
Tim McCarver goes out to talk to Bob Gibson.

600
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:07,000
Gibson has pitched four complete game victories in a row in the World Series.

601
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:10,000
The first time he pitched in the series in 1964.

602
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:15,000
The first game he was beaten.

603
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:19,000
He pitched a decisive seventh game that year in winter.

604
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:24,000
Had a string of fourth straight World Series victories.

605
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,000
Here's the pitch. Curveball. Barely missed. Outside.

606
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:31,000
Two strikes and a ball. Ken Howson.

607
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:34,000
He's had one out of nine in this series.

608
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:38,000
Facing Gibson for the first time in this game.

609
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:41,000
He was out on strikes in the first inning.

610
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,000
Two strikes and a ball. Two out. Nobody on the pitch.

611
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,000
He struck him out swinging.

612
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:51,000
Seven strikeouts. One, two, three. Go to red dot.

613
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:55,000
In the fourth and at the end of the fourth full inning.

614
00:46:55,000 --> 00:47:01,000
The score remains St. Louis two. Boston nothing.

615
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:05,000
Val Macfield leads it off here on the top of the fifth for St. Louis.

616
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,000
Quickly first time up. The first pitch still in his house.

617
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:11,000
He scored the first run.

618
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:14,000
He'll wind up the pitch by Lomborg. And it's a fastball a little bit low.

619
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:17,000
Ball two. Two balls, no strikes.

620
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:20,000
Lomborg is sand two.

621
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:24,000
He hasn't walked anybody.

622
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:32,000
He's allowed five hits and two runs.

623
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:35,000
Here's the pitch. Swung on. A bouncing ball to Foy.

624
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:38,000
He's got it. Lot of time. Throws perfectly.

625
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:41,000
Macfield bounces to Foy who throws him out.

626
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:47,000
Not a big a Bob Gibson who's retired on a line drive at the third baseman.

627
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:50,000
Joe Foy in the third inning.

628
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:53,000
You know after Macfield let off of the triple off the center field wall.

629
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:56,000
Gibson lined up Foy and Brant topped up.

630
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:59,000
And it looked like Lomborg might still pick his way out of the inning.

631
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:02,000
But then Foy contributed a vital singular center.

632
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:05,000
Here's the pitch to Gibson. Long when he fouled it back.

633
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:17,000
The Boston fans giving Bob Gibson a fine hand as he stepped up to the plate.

634
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:22,000
Here's the pitch. And it's low and inside.

635
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:28,000
As the St. Louis fans gave Jim Lomborg in St. Louis.

636
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:31,000
One ball, one strike. One out and nobody on.

637
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,000
Two to nothing in favor of the Cubs.

638
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:37,000
We're in the fifth. The pitch by Lomborg.

639
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:39,000
Picked his call.

640
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:46,000
Boy he looks much sharper these last two innings than he did at the beginning of the game.

641
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:52,000
Bright sunshine is bathing Sunway Park at the moment.

642
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,000
The pitch. One more.

643
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:56,000
The long drive. Deep left center. Way back.

644
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:59,000
It might be out of here. It could be.

645
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:04,000
And it is a home run for Bob Gibson.

646
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:12,000
And boy that was at the 379 foot mark up against the bodily of Cameron that was placed up there.

647
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:19,000
Bob Gibson joins the list of pitchers who have hit home runs in World Series competition.

648
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:23,000
And the score is now three to nothing.

649
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:27,000
He hit that ball a long, long way.

650
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:34,000
And the second base on fire, Frank Uman hustling out as far as he could to make sure he saw where it hit.

651
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:37,000
Indicated that it was a home run.

652
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:39,000
Although the ball bounced back to the field.

653
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:44,000
Here's Brock bouncing foul down to Dick Sissler coaching a first base.

654
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:49,000
Bob Gibson has helped his own cause with a long home run.

655
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:56,000
Beyond the 379 mark in the extreme center field corner.

656
00:49:56,000 --> 00:50:00,000
Little Brock, nothing out of two. Here's the pitch by Larnboy.

657
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,000
Thinking fastball low and outside.

658
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,000
The count is even and a ball and a strike.

659
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:10,000
Brock has had ten out of twenty-seven now in the series.

660
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:14,000
Including nothing out of ten against Larnboy.

661
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:18,000
Here's the pitch. He swings and he misses.

662
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:26,000
Now the way it looks is 27, take out ten. He's ten out of seventeen against the other pitchers.

663
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:33,000
But for Larnboy, he would have a phenomenal batting average.

664
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:37,000
One run is in on a home run by Gibson. One out, the Cardinals are out in front three.

665
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:40,000
Larnboy's pitch.

666
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:45,000
And Brock takes it high. Ball two. Two balls, two strikes.

667
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:51,000
One out and one in.

668
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:55,000
Bob Gibson's first World Series home run.

669
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:58,000
Not a sign.

670
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:01,000
Brock waiting. Here's the pitch.

671
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:04,000
There's a line shot in the left field and Brock's in there for a base hit.

672
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:07,000
So Brock has his first hit.

673
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:11,000
Yostemsky fumbles the ball just a moment but Brock doesn't try to advance.

674
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:17,000
Brock has had his first hit against Jim Larnboy on his 11th time at bat.

675
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:23,000
That'll bring up Kirk Flood, who may have gotten the most important hit of the game.

676
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:29,000
When with two out and the runner at third, he lined his singular center to put the Cardinals out in front.

677
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:33,000
Now a little huddle around the mound.

678
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:39,000
Jose Santiago, who mounted you Dick Williams said would be his first pitcher up on the bullpen.

679
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,000
He's throwing out there.

680
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:47,000
George Scott and Elston Howard talking to Jim Larnboy.

681
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:56,000
More a delay tactic to enable Santiago to get ready out there.

682
00:51:56,000 --> 00:52:00,000
Now Brock has stolen four bases.

683
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:05,000
He's a first base with one out and Flood is a hitter.

684
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:07,000
He takes a long lead.

685
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:11,000
Larnboy throws over there but Brock is back.

686
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:19,000
Brock leads with four stolen bases.

687
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,000
Long lead, no catch.

688
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:23,000
Oh, that goes behind Kirk Flood.

689
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:29,000
And he winds up spinning around on these bats to the opposite side of the plate.

690
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:35,000
During his entire national career, Bob Gibson hit 12 home runs in regular season play.

691
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:39,000
Today he got his first in World Series competition.

692
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:43,000
Brock a lead, Larnboy getting ready.

693
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,000
The hesitation of the bell goes Brock.

694
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,000
The pitch, Howard drops it.

695
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:53,000
And Brock has stolen his fifth base.

696
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:55,000
Little Brock steals second.

697
00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:58,000
Howard is so anxious to get the ball away, he drops it.

698
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,000
Brock had a great jump off first base.

699
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:04,000
I doubt if Howard could have thrown him out.

700
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:10,000
Brock now has 11 hits in the series.

701
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,000
Leading everybody.

702
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:15,000
So Kirk Flood has a chance of driving it around.

703
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:22,000
Cardinal's out in front, three to nothing.

704
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,000
There's a stretch by Larnboy.

705
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,000
And a fifth.

706
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:29,000
It's a curve ball in there for a strike call.

707
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,000
Two balls and a strike on Flood.

708
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:37,000
With one out of two in this game, one out of nine against Larnboy.

709
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:43,000
He's had five hits in this series, which is in his seventh and final game.

710
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:46,000
Brock a short lead at second base for fifth.

711
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:48,000
High inside curve ball.

712
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:51,000
Ball three.

713
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:56,000
Jose Santiago is out on the bullpen and throwing hard out there.

714
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:59,000
Three balls, one strike on Kirk Flood.

715
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:05,000
Brock, who rarely tries to steal first.

716
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:08,000
Still 52 bases during the regular season.

717
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,000
Still in five in this series.

718
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:12,000
There he goes trying to steal.

719
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:13,000
And he's going to make it.

720
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:14,000
Wait a minute.

721
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,000
He's going to make it, all right.

722
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:18,000
Flood started a swing and then stopped.

723
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:19,000
The ball got away from Howard.

724
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:21,000
I thought perhaps he might have foul-kicked it.

725
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:22,000
But he didn't.

726
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:27,000
Ball four and Brock steals third.

727
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:29,000
See, I told you he rarely tries to steal third base.

728
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:31,000
I heard that, Harry.

729
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,000
But he had a big jump.

730
00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:35,000
And he went.

731
00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:37,000
And Flood took ball four.

732
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:41,000
And Roger Maritz comes up with runners at first and third and only one out.

733
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:44,000
And the Cardinals in the spot now to really break it open.

734
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,000
There's only one man out.

735
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,000
The infield playing halfway around short and second.

736
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:50,000
Brock's at third.

737
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:51,000
Flood's at first.

738
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:53,000
A lot of speed.

739
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,000
Score three down at East St. Louis.

740
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:57,000
The pitch to Roger Maritz.

741
00:54:57,000 --> 00:54:59,000
Pass ball low and away.

742
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:00,000
One ball, no strike.

743
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:03,000
Maritz has ten hits in this series.

744
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:07,000
Ten out of 25, which is a 400 batting average.

745
00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:13,000
Without too much publicity, he has done a fine job in this series.

746
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:16,000
Runners at first and third.

747
00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:18,000
One out.

748
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:20,000
Here's Landborg's pitch.

749
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:23,000
Curve ball in the second call.

750
00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:25,000
That evens out of the ball and a strike.

751
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:31,000
The infield in at first and third, halfway at short and second.

752
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:36,000
When they sharply hit ground ball, they'll try for the double play.

753
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:38,000
Three to nothing, St. Louis.

754
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:39,000
The stretch.

755
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:41,000
Here's the pitch.

756
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:43,000
Way outside.

757
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:44,000
Ball two.

758
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:46,000
Two balls and a strike.

759
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:48,000
We're in the top of the fifth inning.

760
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:51,000
The Cardinals have three runs, seven hits.

761
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:58,000
The Red Sox haven't had a hit and naturally no run.

762
00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:02,000
Low block is tied to World Series record for stolen bases.

763
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:03,000
Here's the stretch.

764
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:05,000
Here's the pitch.

765
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:07,000
Strike ball.

766
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:10,000
Hit that outside corner.

767
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:12,000
And listen who we tied.

768
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:17,000
Jim Slagle of the Cubs who stole six and five games in 1907.

769
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:24,000
And Hannes Wagner of the Parrots who stole six and seven games in 1909.

770
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:27,000
Roger Mares with a count of two balls, two strikes.

771
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:29,000
Landborg's pitch.

772
00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:32,000
Outside, ball three.

773
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,000
The crowd's very quiet here at Fenway Park.

774
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:38,000
You can almost hear a pin drop.

775
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:46,000
As in this decisive game, the miracle of Fenway Park has not yet happened.

776
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:48,000
It's a long way to go in these Red Sox.

777
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:53,000
You know the fabulous year they've had.

778
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:56,000
Now the stretch.

779
00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:58,000
Here's the three-two pitch that goes flat.

780
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:00,000
Swung on line drive in the right field.

781
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:01,000
Harrelson's going to catch it.

782
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:02,000
He does.

783
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:03,000
Here's Black tagging up.

784
00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:04,000
Here's a throw to the plate.

785
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:06,000
He scores.

786
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:10,000
And Mares has driven in his seventh run of the series.

787
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:13,000
He leads both teams and RBI.

788
00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:18,000
A sacrifice fly by Roger Mares makes the score now four to nothing.

789
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:19,000
Two out.

790
00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:26,000
Floyd who is starting on that three-two pitch had a comeback the first base.

791
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:30,000
So Cepeda steps up with a runner first.

792
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:33,000
Ross now has scored eight runs.

793
00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:35,000
He leads both teams in that department.

794
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:36,000
He's had 11 hits.

795
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:38,000
He leads in that department.

796
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:39,000
He has stolen six bases.

797
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,000
He leads in that category.

798
00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:43,000
And here's Orlando's fifth.

799
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:46,000
A throw with the first to runner back.

800
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:47,000
Forward and up.

801
00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:53,000
They can save it to Cardinals in the top of the fifth.

802
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:57,000
Now the stretch.

803
00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,000
By land Borgi throws over the first.

804
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:00,000
The runner is back.

805
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:07,000
I don't believe the Cardinals have ever lost a seven-game World Series.

806
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:13,000
And this is their fifth.

807
00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:16,000
Now the stretch.

808
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:17,000
Here's the pitch.

809
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:20,000
Cepeda had a cut and he followed it back.

810
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:22,000
Orlando is talking on the stuff.

811
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:23,000
He's getting good cuts.

812
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:29,000
He's getting good pitches.

813
00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:35,000
This is the Cardinals' 11th World Series and they're shooting for their eighth championship.

814
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:38,000
Now the stretch.

815
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:40,000
The pitch to Cepeda.

816
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:42,000
Pass ball is low.

817
00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:45,000
And the count evens at a ball and a stretch.

818
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:48,000
Forward and up it in the top of the fifth.

819
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:51,000
Bob Gibson hasn't allowed a hit as yet.

820
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:58,000
And a stand seven in the first four innings.

821
00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:01,000
Here's a lead by Flood.

822
00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:03,000
The pitch by land Borgi.

823
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:06,000
Swung at a bad ball and he missed.

824
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:08,000
Two strikes and a ball.

825
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:12,000
Cepeda, who quite obviously now is pressing.

826
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:14,000
The big man to the Cardinals all year long.

827
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:18,000
He's been held to three hits and 26 times at bat in this series.

828
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:21,000
And he's nothing out of nine against land Borgi.

829
00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:28,000
He was driven in just one run.

830
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:31,000
Cepeda goes to the rousin back.

831
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:35,000
Now returns to the play.

832
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,000
The outfield plays in deep.

833
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:40,000
Jim Longboy getting ready.

834
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:42,000
Now the pitch.

835
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:43,000
Here it is.

836
00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:45,000
Her ball is low.

837
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:49,000
That evens it up a two balls, two strikes.

838
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,000
Top of the fifth inning.

839
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:56,000
A capacity crowd at Fenway Park.

840
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:59,000
Almost an abnormal silence at the moment.

841
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:05,000
You wouldn't think that 36,000 people or so could be so quiet.

842
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:08,000
Two balls, two strikes.

843
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:10,000
There's a throw there.

844
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:11,000
The runner's back.

845
01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:17,000
Wow, they're whooping it up out there in the bleachers.

846
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:20,000
Wow, these are great fans out there.

847
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:22,000
Here's the stretch.

848
01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:23,000
Two-two pitch.

849
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:26,000
Here it is.

850
01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:29,000
Foul ball on the third base line.

851
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:36,000
Boy guarding the line closely was over there to make the play, but it was a foul ball.

852
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:41,000
Cepeda busted his down on that one.

853
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:43,000
Gets a new war club up there.

854
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:46,000
Two balls, two strikes.

855
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:49,000
Cepeda to hit her.

856
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:53,000
Kirk was on first base.

857
01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:55,000
Top of the fifth inning.

858
01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:57,000
Four to nothing, St. Louis.

859
01:00:57,000 --> 01:00:59,000
Here's the stretch.

860
01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:00,000
The pitch.

861
01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:04,000
Inside a fastball three.

862
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:06,000
Three balls, two strikes.

863
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:08,000
Full count on Orlando Cepeda.

864
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:12,000
Kirk Flood will be going with the pitch again.

865
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:16,000
There's two men out and two runs are in.

866
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:22,000
The first on a home run by Bob Gibson.

867
01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:25,000
Here's the stretch to three-two pitch.

868
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:26,000
There goes Flood.

869
01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:29,000
Howled back to the screen.

870
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:31,000
And the count remains the same.

871
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:38,000
You know, everybody talking all through the series about the spectacular efforts of

872
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:45,000
Klaue Jostrowski of the Red Sox and Lou Brock of the Cardinals.

873
01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:50,000
Bob Gibson might slip through to be the standout performer in the series.

874
01:01:50,000 --> 01:01:53,000
Taking nothing away from the other two men.

875
01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:57,000
Here's the stretch three-two pitch.

876
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:58,000
There goes the runner.

877
01:01:58,000 --> 01:01:59,000
Swung on.

878
01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:01,000
A long drive but foul.

879
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:03,000
Out onto the street here.

880
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:10,000
Jostrowski has been sensational not only all year long, but throughout the series.

881
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:13,000
Lou Brock for the Cardinals has sparkled.

882
01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:15,000
Bob Gibson is alive.

883
01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:17,000
The Red Sox one-run.

884
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:23,000
And that's by Jose Santiago.

885
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:25,000
But this game isn't over yet.

886
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:26,000
Much can happen.

887
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:28,000
Here's the stretch for pitch.

888
01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:29,000
There goes the runner.

889
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:30,000
Swung on.

890
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:31,000
High pop-fly.

891
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:33,000
Short left field.

892
01:02:33,000 --> 01:02:34,000
Jostrowski under the ball.

893
01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:37,000
And he's got it for retire the side.

894
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:39,000
Supporter fly for Jostrowski.

895
01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:45,000
So it's two runs, two hits, no errors in one left.

896
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:54,000
And at the end of the four and a half innings here in Boston, the score, St. Louis four, Boston nothing.

897
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:58,000
About a half to fifth innings of lights have been turned on here at Fenway Park.

898
01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:01,000
George Scott will be the first here for the Red Sox.

899
01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:05,000
And the Cardinals lead by a score of four to nothing to tell you all about it, Harry Carrey.

900
01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:10,000
All right, here's George Scott to read it off.

901
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:21,000
Time is called as the umpires find a something on Ford going on in the right field corner.

902
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:22,000
But now we're ready to go.

903
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:25,000
George Scott's playing his first time up the pitch.

904
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:27,000
It's a little bit low on outside.

905
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:29,000
Gibson, Ozonar, they hit you.

906
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:35,000
Now the fervor of the crowd can be heard as they begin to cheer the Red Sox on.

907
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:36,000
Here's the pitch.

908
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:40,000
There's a long drive, he's going to be a way back.

909
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:42,000
12-year-old McGann and Munchy up against the wall.

910
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:43,000
Scott's around first.

911
01:03:43,000 --> 01:03:44,000
On his way to second.

912
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:47,000
Now he's around second on his way to third.

913
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:49,000
And he makes him standing up.

914
01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:51,000
Here's a ball getting away.

915
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:55,000
Goes into the Cardinals' red box and Scott will score.

916
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:57,000
Now he's in the end and trying to get through the play.

917
01:03:57,000 --> 01:04:25,000
And the ball's shipped into the Cardinals' red box and the Red Sox have scored.

918
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:28,000
Solid save, 4-1 ball game.

919
01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:29,000
And here's Ledgie Smith.

920
01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:31,000
Left-handed out of the pitch, one on.

921
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:33,000
High drive ball, right field.

922
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:36,000
Rod Jimenez coming in under the ball.

923
01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:40,000
He's got it.

924
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:43,000
George Scott got the first hit off Bob Gibson.

925
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:47,000
A long drive just above the 420 mark in center field.

926
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:50,000
First blood had trouble picking the ball up.

927
01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:53,000
Scott advanced to third base standing up.

928
01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:57,000
The flow, I don't know whether Harvey, I think Harvey or through the ball,

929
01:04:57,000 --> 01:04:59,000
we'll have to check it.

930
01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:02,000
Here's Pepsosulli and the curve ball is outside.

931
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:04,000
The flow in the third base.

932
01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:07,000
Shannon trying to get through the ball, stumbled over Scott,

933
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:10,000
fell down and the ball's shipped into the Cardinal dugout.

934
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:12,000
Scott's scoring.

935
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:16,000
Here's a good flow with Pepsosulli.

936
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:20,000
The job has now come to life.

937
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:23,000
It's a 4-1 ball game.

938
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:26,000
Pepsosulli waiting the pitch.

939
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:28,000
It's a strike call.

940
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:31,000
Two balls and a strike.

941
01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:36,000
That was Scott's fourth hit off Gibson and nine times a bat in a series.

942
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:38,000
Now to wind up, here's the delivery.

943
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:41,000
Brings and misses, strike two.

944
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:47,000
Pepsosulli has bowed it seven times against Gibson.

945
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:52,000
He's got to stand five times against him.

946
01:05:52,000 --> 01:06:00,000
Orman threats he can hit that long ball as he proved yesterday to put Pepsosulli.

947
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:03,000
And the count, two balls, two strikes.

948
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:05,000
It was Javier's idea.

949
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:07,000
Yes, I was watching him play a third base.

950
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:11,000
I conjectured it was Javier that threw the ball towards third.

951
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:16,000
He'll get the air on the throw.

952
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:19,000
Two balls, two strikes on Pepsosulli.

953
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:21,000
Here's the pitch.

954
01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:23,000
He struck him out swinging.

955
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:27,000
That's the second time in a row in this game that Pepsosulli has fanned.

956
01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:31,000
And that is the eighth strikeout for Bob Gibson.

957
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:40,000
Here's Elston Howard.

958
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:42,000
As I mentioned, Scott, here's the pitch.

959
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:45,000
Howard swings a high pop by high shot left field.

960
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:48,000
Brock coming in, calling for the ball.

961
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:49,000
He has it.

962
01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:52,000
So Howard on the first pitch flies to Brock.

963
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:57,000
One run, one hit, one air, nobody left for the Red Sox in the fifth.

964
01:06:57,000 --> 01:07:04,000
And at the end of five full innings, it's the Cardinals four, the Red Sox one.

965
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:08,000
We pause 30 seconds for station identification.

966
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:14,000
This is WMAQ AM and FM, radio home of the Floyd Brown Show, Chicago.

967
01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:19,000
Are you going to the top half of sixth inning?

968
01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:23,000
The Cardinals have four runs, seven hits, they've made one air.

969
01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:26,000
The Red Sox have one run on one hit, they have made no air.

970
01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:29,000
Gibson all the way and Lombard all the way.

971
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:35,000
The first hitter, it'll be Tim McCarver for the Cardinals as they go in the top half of sixth inning.

972
01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:36,000
Harry?

973
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:39,000
All right, Pee-wee, four to one.

974
01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:42,000
The Red Sox have picked up one of those runs.

975
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:46,000
Here is McCarver, nothing out of two in this game.

976
01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:52,000
Pop the short, roll the second, the pitch, in there, a slider, a strike call.

977
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:56,000
McCarver is nothing out of eight against the pitching of Jim Lombard.

978
01:07:56,000 --> 01:08:01,000
The Cardinals have had seven hits, the Red Sox one.

979
01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:05,000
One strike on Tim McCarver.

980
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:11,000
Just as Lombard gets ready, McCarver steps out of the batter's box.

981
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:13,000
Four to one, we're in the top of the sixth, stainless leads.

982
01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:15,000
Here's the pitch.

983
01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:18,000
There's the line drive and the right field, Harrelson coming in.

984
01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:19,000
He's eyes for the bar.

985
01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:23,000
He drops it down, there goes McCarver on his way to second.

986
01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:29,000
A great try by Ken Harrelson and the right field line umpire, Paul Pryor, was right on top of the play.

987
01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:37,000
He was ready to indicate that McCarver was out, that Harrelson had caught the ball fairly when he saw it pop out of his glove.

988
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:43,000
What I think is he hit the ground, the jar, loosened the ball from his mitt.

989
01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:49,000
A fine try by Ken Harrelson, it winds up a double for Tim McCarver.

990
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:52,000
He's first hit off Lombard.

991
01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:57,000
So the Cardinals have their leadoff man at second base here in the top of the sixth.

992
01:08:57,000 --> 01:09:00,000
St. Louis four, Red Sox one.

993
01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:05,000
Mike Shannon, who's nothing out of eight against Lombard, for the series.

994
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:08,000
He's a man and bounced out in this game.

995
01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:10,000
Right-handed hitter.

996
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:12,000
We're in the sixth.

997
01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:15,000
The stretch by Lombard, the glance back.

998
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:17,000
And the pitch.

999
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:21,000
Curveball is high and inside.

1000
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:29,000
Dan Osinski, a right-hander, and Ken Brett, a left-hander, are busy in the Red Sox bullpen.

1001
01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:32,000
Shannon, hitting out of a wide straddle.

1002
01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:36,000
The Cardinals have had eight hits in this game.

1003
01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:39,000
McCarver lead.

1004
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:41,000
Lombard takes a look at him.

1005
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:43,000
Here's the pitch.

1006
01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:45,000
Curveball, oh, great stop by Foy.

1007
01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:48,000
Picks the ball up, can't make a play.

1008
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:56,000
A vicious smash at Joe Foy, who knocked the ball down, but couldn't make a play.

1009
01:09:56,000 --> 01:10:00,000
They're going to call it an air.

1010
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:02,000
An air charge to Foy.

1011
01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:04,000
It's not a base hit.

1012
01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:08,000
And the Cardinals have runners at first and second.

1013
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:13,000
And here comes manager Dick Williams of the Boston Red Sox.

1014
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:16,000
Jim Lombard.

1015
01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:24,000
You have to admire not only this boy's ability, but his courage.

1016
01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:28,000
With very sharp rest.

1017
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:32,000
He hasn't had his stuff here today. It's been quite obvious.

1018
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:37,000
He's going to stay in this ballgame.

1019
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:41,000
The Cardinals, in 18 innings previously in this World Series against Lombard,

1020
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:44,000
had a total of only four hits.

1021
01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:48,000
Today they've had eight.

1022
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:50,000
We're in the sixth inning.

1023
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:54,000
Runners at first and second, how near will be the batter?

1024
01:10:54,000 --> 01:11:04,000
The ball Shannon hit was hit hard, and Foy knocked it down.

1025
01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:08,000
But it was an air, and those runners at first and second, nobody up.

1026
01:11:08,000 --> 01:11:14,000
Javier, who's had one out of two in this game.

1027
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:17,000
Right-handed batter waits. Lombard getting ready.

1028
01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:19,000
The pitch.

1029
01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,000
Swings and he fouls it back.

1030
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:27,000
Javier was trying to go to the opposite field that time.

1031
01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:33,000
Down Knoxville would be next, followed by Bob Gibson.

1032
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:36,000
Runners at first and second, the decisive game of the World Series,

1033
01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:41,000
finds St. Louis leading Boston 4-1.

1034
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:43,000
The Cardinals perched at first and second.

1035
01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:48,000
Shannon at first. McClark at second.

1036
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:53,000
Javier on board, gets ready.

1037
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:57,000
Hesitates to belt and pitches to Javier.

1038
01:11:57,000 --> 01:12:04,000
He swings and misses a curve ball.

1039
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:09,000
And Javier is in the hole, two strikes and nothing.

1040
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:12,000
The Cardinals have gotten away to an early lead,

1041
01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:15,000
but these Boston Red Sox have made believers of everybody

1042
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:21,000
but the way they have fought back so many times,

1043
01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:24,000
this unforgettable season, certainly the most unforgettable

1044
01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:32,000
in the history of the Boston Ball Club.

1045
01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:34,000
You know, the Cardinals drew over two million people

1046
01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:36,000
at their ballpark this year, and the Red Sox,

1047
01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:41,000
in a much smaller ballpark, drew something like a million seven hundred thousand.

1048
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:43,000
That's how much interest they created.

1049
01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:48,000
Here it is. He held up on a curve ball, almost chased it.

1050
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:52,000
Two strikes and the ball.

1051
01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:58,000
We're in the sixth. Cardinal runners at first and second, nobody out.

1052
01:12:58,000 --> 01:13:03,000
Javier, who's had eight hits in this series,

1053
01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:10,000
has distinguished himself both at bat and in the field, as a matter of fact.

1054
01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:15,000
One ball, two strikes. Lombard leaning forward.

1055
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:18,000
McCarver a safe lead at second.

1056
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:24,000
Shannon a shot when at first, Scott is not holding them on.

1057
01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:28,000
Lombard at the belt, the pitch.

1058
01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:32,000
There's a long drive way back. It might be out of here.

1059
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:37,000
It could be. It is a home run.

1060
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:44,000
Javier hits one off the screen in left field, and the Cardinals now lead seven to one.

1061
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:49,000
Javier homers.

1062
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:55,000
A high towering drive that hit the screen atop the Green Monster.

1063
01:13:55,000 --> 01:14:01,000
And there's Javier's ninth hit in this series.

1064
01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:06,000
That brings up Don Osville.

1065
01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:09,000
Cooley now has driven in four runs for the series.

1066
01:14:09,000 --> 01:14:13,000
Here's the pitch to Maxville, and it's a fastball low.

1067
01:14:13,000 --> 01:14:24,000
The Cardinals, with two in the third, two in the fifth, and now three in the sixth, have a seven to one lead.

1068
01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:34,000
Here's the pitch, and it's in there a fastball, a strike call.

1069
01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:38,000
That's Javier's first World Series home run.

1070
01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:41,000
Now the pitch, slung and foul tipped.

1071
01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:53,000
In the 1964 World Series, Javier was injured, played only a game or so, and Don Osville played second base most of the series.

1072
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:56,000
Played only one game, and that is a pinch runner.

1073
01:14:56,000 --> 01:15:01,000
Here's the pitch, slung and foul tipped.

1074
01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:05,000
Seven to one in favor of the Cardinals.

1075
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:13,000
Don Maxville, who started with a triple in the third inning, scored the first run on Kirk Flood's single with two outs.

1076
01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:20,000
Now to wind up the pitch, behind him, and the count is evened up.

1077
01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:23,000
Two balls, two strikes.

1078
01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:28,000
Jim Rambord, seven runs on nine hits.

1079
01:15:28,000 --> 01:15:31,000
Each team has made an error.

1080
01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:34,000
Out of pitch, fly ball right field.

1081
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:38,000
Harrelson going over, under the ball, makes the kill.

1082
01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:41,000
Maxville fly to Harrelson right center.

1083
01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:47,000
That's one away, and brings up the pitcher Bob Gibson, who homered in the fifth.

1084
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:51,000
Line hard to play in the third.

1085
01:15:51,000 --> 01:16:04,000
He's getting a nice hand from the Boston fans.

1086
01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:10,000
Rambord's pitch, here it is, and there's a curveball in the first strike call.

1087
01:16:10,000 --> 01:16:17,000
Gibson pitching his third game in the series, as is Rambord.

1088
01:16:17,000 --> 01:16:20,000
Each man went into this game having allowed one run.

1089
01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:26,000
Strike call, the fastball.

1090
01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:29,000
Gibson has won by scores of two to one and six to nothing.

1091
01:16:29,000 --> 01:16:34,000
The series, Rambord, by scores of five to nothing and three to one.

1092
01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:36,000
Now to pitch, curveball a little bit low.

1093
01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:38,000
One ball, two strikes.

1094
01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:40,000
Three runs are in.

1095
01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:43,000
St. Louis leading seven to one.

1096
01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:49,000
The Cardinals who never have lost a seven-game World Series.

1097
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:50,000
Here's the pitch.

1098
01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:52,000
Swung a bouncing ball to Foy.

1099
01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:53,000
He's got it.

1100
01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:55,000
Over to first base.

1101
01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:56,000
He's out.

1102
01:16:56,000 --> 01:17:00,000
Foy throws out Gibson.

1103
01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:03,000
That will bring up Lou Brock.

1104
01:17:03,000 --> 01:17:07,000
Brock got his first hit of the series against Rambord in the fifth.

1105
01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:18,000
Stole two bases and has now swiped six in the series.

1106
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:28,000
Brock has had 11 hits.

1107
01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:31,000
Rambord throws the ball in to Elston Howard.

1108
01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:33,000
Claymumpire John Stevens looks it over.

1109
01:17:33,000 --> 01:17:43,000
It's okay and they toss it back to him.

1110
01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:45,000
Here's Rambord's pitch.

1111
01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:48,000
Fastball sinks low and outside.

1112
01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:50,000
One ball, no strikes.

1113
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:51,000
Three runs are in.

1114
01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:58,000
Two men are out.

1115
01:17:58,000 --> 01:17:59,000
Now the delivery.

1116
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:04,000
Swung a line drive down the left-fee line and it is a fair ball going into the corner.

1117
01:18:04,000 --> 01:18:05,000
Brock's around first.

1118
01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:07,000
He's on his way to second.

1119
01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:11,000
Yastrinsky recovers the ball and fires it back towards the infield.

1120
01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:19,000
Lou Brock gets his second hit of the game and 12th of the series, a double into the left-field corner.

1121
01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:28,000
That brings up Kurt Flood.

1122
01:18:28,000 --> 01:18:32,000
Flood has had one out of two, drove in a run.

1123
01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:40,000
The hit he got in the third inning was the first hit he had had off Rambord in the whole series.

1124
01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:44,000
It's a curve ball in the first strike call.

1125
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:48,000
Foy at third base, Petrocelli at short, Andrews at second.

1126
01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:50,000
Scott at first.

1127
01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:55,000
Howard the catcher, Lombard the pitcher.

1128
01:18:55,000 --> 01:19:00,000
There's Brock, a lead off second base, and Lombard's pitch.

1129
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:03,000
Swung and he fouled tipped.

1130
01:19:03,000 --> 01:19:09,000
And so Flood has a count of two strikes with two out, three runs in, and Brock at second base.

1131
01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:14,000
We're in the top of the sixth.

1132
01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:18,000
Lombard leans forward.

1133
01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:24,000
Has his sign.

1134
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:28,000
Pitching deliberately, glances at second base.

1135
01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:32,000
Now the pitch, and it's high on outside.

1136
01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:39,000
One ball, two strikes on Kurt Flood.

1137
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:48,000
Joe Schultz coaching at third base for the Cardinals, Dick Sissler at first base.

1138
01:19:48,000 --> 01:19:52,000
Mike Andrews holding Brock close.

1139
01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:53,000
Here's the pitch.

1140
01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:55,000
Curve ball outside.

1141
01:19:55,000 --> 01:20:07,000
And the count evens two balls, two strikes.

1142
01:20:07,000 --> 01:20:11,000
Flood waiting.

1143
01:20:11,000 --> 01:20:14,000
Everything quiet here at the moment.

1144
01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:17,000
Now the glance back at second base.

1145
01:20:17,000 --> 01:20:18,000
The pitch.

1146
01:20:18,000 --> 01:20:21,000
He struck him out swinging.

1147
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:23,000
Kurt Flood goes down swinging.

1148
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:26,000
It's three runs for the Cardinals.

1149
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:27,000
Three hits.

1150
01:20:27,000 --> 01:20:29,000
One air and one left.

1151
01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:45,000
So the Red Sox fans up on their feet cheering as we go down to the bottom half of the sixth at the score, St. Louis 7, Boston 1.

1152
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:54,000
Jose Tardibold comes in as a pinch hitter for Jim Lombard.

1153
01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:56,000
Left-handed hitter.

1154
01:20:56,000 --> 01:20:59,000
The score is some of the one in favor of St. Louis.

1155
01:20:59,000 --> 01:21:01,000
Here's the windup and the pitch.

1156
01:21:01,000 --> 01:21:03,000
Swung and he missed.

1157
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:05,000
Strike two.

1158
01:21:05,000 --> 01:21:08,000
Jose Tardibold.

1159
01:21:08,000 --> 01:21:11,000
Lombard.

1160
01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:15,000
A fantastic pitcher in this series.

1161
01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:20,000
And one wonders, here's a pitch and it's a curve ball on inside.

1162
01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:29,000
With proper rest, if he'd had his normal three or four-day rest, how this game would have gone.

1163
01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:30,000
Tardibold waiting.

1164
01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:31,000
Two strikes and a ball.

1165
01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:35,000
The pitch swung and he struck him out.

1166
01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:39,000
Tardibold becomes the ninth strikeout victim.

1167
01:21:39,000 --> 01:21:40,000
Here's Joe Floyd.

1168
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:43,000
He's a fan once and walk once.

1169
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:44,000
One out.

1170
01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:46,000
A ball game at the bottom of the sixth.

1171
01:21:46,000 --> 01:21:53,000
St. Louis out in front, 7 to 1.

1172
01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:58,000
Bob Gibson delivers and it's a curve ball outside.

1173
01:21:58,000 --> 01:22:06,000
Gibson is allowed two runs now in the series.

1174
01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:10,000
Right-handed delivers, swung on, a high top foul, coming back.

1175
01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:12,000
McCarver has a play under the ball.

1176
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:14,000
He takes it.

1177
01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:17,000
So Floyd fouls to McCarver.

1178
01:22:17,000 --> 01:22:19,000
Two men up, two men down.

1179
01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:30,000
And here's Mike Andrews.

1180
01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:35,000
Andrews' sacrifice in the first inning was out on strikes in the fourth.

1181
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:37,000
Two men are out.

1182
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:41,000
Gibson is allowed one hit, a triple by George Scott.

1183
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:42,000
Here's the pitch.

1184
01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:45,000
There's a smash and one half to Knoxville.

1185
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:47,000
There's a throw over the first, end time.

1186
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:51,000
Andrews hit the ball hard but a one bounce right at Knoxville.

1187
01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:53,000
So it's one, two, three, nothing across.

1188
01:22:53,000 --> 01:23:02,000
And at the end of six innings, it's St. Louis 7, Boston 1.

1189
01:23:02,000 --> 01:23:07,000
By going in the top half of the seventh inning, a new pitcher for the Boston Red Sox, Jose Santiago.

1190
01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:11,000
Santa's Cardinals, seven runs on ten hits.

1191
01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:12,000
They've made one error.

1192
01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:15,000
The Boston Red Sox, one run on one hit.

1193
01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:16,000
They've made one error.

1194
01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:20,000
The first hitter for the Cardinals in the top half of the seventh inning, Roger Maris.

1195
01:23:20,000 --> 01:23:21,000
Harry?

1196
01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:22,000
Hi, Peewee.

1197
01:23:22,000 --> 01:23:24,000
Maris left-handed batter.

1198
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:27,000
He's driven in a run today and had two singles, two out of two.

1199
01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:28,000
Here's the pitch.

1200
01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:31,000
Santiago's curve ball is swung on amidst.

1201
01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:38,000
Santiago had won 12 and lost four during the season with an earned run average of 3.60.

1202
01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:42,000
One strike, no ball.

1203
01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:44,000
Here's the pitch.

1204
01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:47,000
And it's a fastball in there for a strike and call.

1205
01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:52,000
This is the third appearance for Santiago.

1206
01:23:52,000 --> 01:23:54,000
His first in relief.

1207
01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:56,000
He lost two as a starter.

1208
01:23:56,000 --> 01:23:59,000
The pitch to Maris, swung on, a high pop foul.

1209
01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:02,000
Off to the left of the plate, Howard Chase again over to the stands.

1210
01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:05,000
Out of play.

1211
01:24:05,000 --> 01:24:11,000
And the count remains two strikes on Roger Maris.

1212
01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:13,000
We're in the top of the seventh.

1213
01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:18,000
The score is seven to one, St. Louis.

1214
01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:25,000
Maris, who's had ten out of 25 in the series, a 400 average, has driven in seven runs.

1215
01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:28,000
Now to wind up by Santiago, the pitch.

1216
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:32,000
It's a long drive, but it's twist foul.

1217
01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:35,000
Onto the roof in the right field corner.

1218
01:24:35,000 --> 01:24:40,000
Maris got out in front, pulled that ball, but foul.

1219
01:24:40,000 --> 01:24:43,000
Two strikes is the count.

1220
01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:46,000
Santiago winds the pitch.

1221
01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:52,000
Curve ball outside.

1222
01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:55,000
Left-handed hitter digging in.

1223
01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:57,000
One ball, two strikes.

1224
01:24:57,000 --> 01:24:59,000
Here's the pitch.

1225
01:24:59,000 --> 01:25:02,000
Another long drive foul.

1226
01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:05,000
Just missed the light tower that time.

1227
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:10,000
Santiago from Puerto Rico.

1228
01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:16,000
A friend since boyhood of Orlando Cepeda, the Cardinals.

1229
01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:19,000
27-year-old right-hander winds, and here's the pitch.

1230
01:25:19,000 --> 01:25:22,000
High five all, left center field.

1231
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:27,000
Kremski going over, so's Reggie Smith near the wall, and he has it.

1232
01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:31,000
Maris wide deep for Reggie Smith in left center.

1233
01:25:31,000 --> 01:25:37,000
That's one out and brings up Orlando Cepeda, facing his countrymen here.

1234
01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:42,000
Cepeda, nothing out of three in this contest.

1235
01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:44,000
One out, nobody on.

1236
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:47,000
The ball game in the seventh.

1237
01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:54,000
Maris out in front, 7-1.

1238
01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:57,000
Santiago winds, and here's the pitch.

1239
01:25:57,000 --> 01:26:01,000
A fastball in there for a strike call.

1240
01:26:01,000 --> 01:26:03,000
One strike, no ball.

1241
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:05,000
One out, nobody on.

1242
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:07,000
Top of the seventh.

1243
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:09,000
Santiago's pitch.

1244
01:26:09,000 --> 01:26:14,000
Curve ball in there, a strike call.

1245
01:26:14,000 --> 01:26:21,000
Santiago quickly out in front of Cepeda with two fast strikes.

1246
01:26:21,000 --> 01:26:25,000
The outfield plays Cepeda straight away and deep.

1247
01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:29,000
The pitch, curve ball into the dirt outside.

1248
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:32,000
One ball, two strikes.

1249
01:26:32,000 --> 01:26:40,000
Crowd in neighborhood of 36,000, whatever they can get in here.

1250
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:43,000
For the decisive game of the World Series.

1251
01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:46,000
He struck him out swinging.

1252
01:26:46,000 --> 01:26:48,000
Cepeda goes down swinging.

1253
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:51,000
That's two out and brings up Kim McCarver.

1254
01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:57,000
I think Orlando will be glad when this series is over, Pee-wee's having a tough one.

1255
01:26:57,000 --> 01:27:03,000
Yeah, I'm sure that he will be, Harry, because Orlando Cepeda had quite a season.

1256
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:05,000
He led the Cardinals with the National League clinic.

1257
01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:09,000
He's quite a hitter, but he's just in one of those slumps and can't seem to get on track.

1258
01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:13,000
Here's McCarver and the pitch swung on, popped out.

1259
01:27:13,000 --> 01:27:15,000
Elston Howard, who's going to get it?

1260
01:27:15,000 --> 01:27:19,000
Foy comes down the line from third base and grabs it right in front of home plate.

1261
01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:22,000
McCarver on the first pitch, popped to four.

1262
01:27:22,000 --> 01:27:26,000
The Cardinals go down in order, one, two, three.

1263
01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:30,000
The crowd up on his feet hoping for the lucky seventh.

1264
01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:35,000
At the end of six and a half innings, the score remains St. Louis 7, Boston 1,

1265
01:27:35,000 --> 01:27:42,000
after seven and eight. Arnie Ostrowski, what a year he's had, what a series he's had.

1266
01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:50,000
A great ball player, an all-around ball player, facing a fellow by the name of Bob Gibson here in the bottom half of seven and eight.

1267
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:55,000
Arnie Ostrowski, the Triple Crown winner,

1268
01:27:55,000 --> 01:27:58,000
is supposed to be the MVP of the American League.

1269
01:27:58,000 --> 01:28:01,000
Here's a pitch and he takes a low.

1270
01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:02,000
One ball, no strikes.

1271
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:08,000
This fellow's been outstanding not only with his bat in this series, but with his arm and with his feeling,

1272
01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:14,000
and that's the way it was all year long.

1273
01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:16,000
Bob Gibson delivers. Here it is.

1274
01:28:16,000 --> 01:28:18,000
Fast ball low.

1275
01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:19,000
Ball two.

1276
01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:21,000
Two balls, no strikes.

1277
01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:27,000
Yostromski's had two hits off Gibson in the series, two out of ten.

1278
01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:30,000
Pop the shot and roll the second in this game.

1279
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:32,000
Here's a pitch.

1280
01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:36,000
Striked over the outside corner, built high.

1281
01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:41,000
Sound the count, two balls and a strike on Claudia Stremski.

1282
01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:46,000
Ken Harrelson and George Scott are the first three hitters in this inning.

1283
01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:48,000
The Red Sox trail by six runs.

1284
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:50,000
Here's the pitch.

1285
01:28:50,000 --> 01:28:52,000
Ball three is outside.

1286
01:28:52,000 --> 01:28:55,000
Three balls and a strike.

1287
01:28:55,000 --> 01:28:57,000
Gibson walked.

1288
01:28:57,000 --> 01:29:01,000
One man so far, and that was the leadoff man, Joe Foy.

1289
01:29:01,000 --> 01:29:09,000
Here's a pitch to Yostromski.

1290
01:29:09,000 --> 01:29:11,000
He had a cut and he missed.

1291
01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:14,000
And the count is full of three balls, two strikes.

1292
01:29:14,000 --> 01:29:21,000
Carl Yostromski, who swings so viciously but always makes contact.

1293
01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:27,000
As I mentioned, he's only fan once in the whole series, and that time he was called out.

1294
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:30,000
Three balls, two strikes, the pitch.

1295
01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:33,000
He walked and ball four.

1296
01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:38,000
So Yostromski starts the seven for the Red Sox with a base on ball.

1297
01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:42,000
And that brings up Ken Harrelson.

1298
01:29:42,000 --> 01:29:49,000
Harrelson is nothing out of two in this game.

1299
01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:51,000
Right-handed batter up there.

1300
01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:54,000
George Scott will be next.

1301
01:29:54,000 --> 01:29:57,000
So the Red Sox have the heart of their lineup coming up.

1302
01:29:57,000 --> 01:29:58,000
Here's the pitch.

1303
01:29:58,000 --> 01:30:04,000
Curveball in their first strike ball on Harrelson.

1304
01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:07,000
He fanned twice in this game.

1305
01:30:07,000 --> 01:30:11,000
Called out in the first, swinging in the fourth.

1306
01:30:11,000 --> 01:30:14,000
Now the stretch, the pitch.

1307
01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:16,000
It's a fastball low and inside.

1308
01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:24,000
One ball, one strike.

1309
01:30:24,000 --> 01:30:26,000
Right-handed hitter waiting.

1310
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:27,000
Yostromski in first base.

1311
01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:29,000
The Peta doesn't hold him on.

1312
01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:31,000
Now the pitch.

1313
01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:33,000
Roll, ball two.

1314
01:30:33,000 --> 01:30:35,000
Two balls and a strike.

1315
01:30:35,000 --> 01:30:39,000
And Red Cheney, the final manager, comes crawling out to top.

1316
01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:47,000
To his coach, Bob Gibson.

1317
01:30:47,000 --> 01:30:53,000
These fans enjoying themselves and hoping for a Boston rally here.

1318
01:30:53,000 --> 01:30:59,000
And he's closing in.

1319
01:30:59,000 --> 01:31:05,000
Whatever Red Cheney said to Gibson didn't take long because he's back off the field.

1320
01:31:05,000 --> 01:31:09,000
Gibson works quickly.

1321
01:31:09,000 --> 01:31:13,000
A runner at first base, Yostromski, to push the house.

1322
01:31:13,000 --> 01:31:15,000
He's one that he missed.

1323
01:31:15,000 --> 01:31:18,000
And the count evens with two balls, two strikes.

1324
01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:25,000
A lot of times in a situation like that, the manager will tell the pitcher to kind of take it easy, slow down, you're pitching too fast.

1325
01:31:25,000 --> 01:31:29,000
This is the type of game that Gibson pitches.

1326
01:31:29,000 --> 01:31:31,000
He always pitches fast.

1327
01:31:31,000 --> 01:31:32,000
Two-two pitch.

1328
01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:33,000
Here it is.

1329
01:31:33,000 --> 01:31:35,000
Fencing ball, third shot.

1330
01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:36,000
Knoxville has it.

1331
01:31:36,000 --> 01:31:37,000
Second base for one.

1332
01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:39,000
First base safe.

1333
01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:45,000
So Harrelson forces Yostromski from Knoxville to hobby air.

1334
01:31:45,000 --> 01:31:49,000
There's one away and that brings up George Scott, who has the only hit of the game.

1335
01:31:49,000 --> 01:31:57,000
A triple off the center field wall.

1336
01:31:57,000 --> 01:32:04,000
Scott during the regular season hit three-oh-three with 19 homers and 82 runs batted in.

1337
01:32:04,000 --> 01:32:12,000
He's been especially effective against Bob Gibson in this World Series with four hits and nine times at bat.

1338
01:32:12,000 --> 01:32:16,000
Right-handed batter with great power, the pitch.

1339
01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:24,000
And it's in there, a slider caught the outside corner at the knees, strike one call.

1340
01:32:24,000 --> 01:32:28,000
A runner at first base is Harrelson, has one off.

1341
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:32,000
Scott didn't like that pitch.

1342
01:32:32,000 --> 01:32:35,000
Now moves back into the batter's box.

1343
01:32:35,000 --> 01:32:39,000
Eddie Papowski coaching at third base, Bobby Dorr at first base.

1344
01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:41,000
The stretch by Gibson, the fifth.

1345
01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:43,000
Curled in there, a strike call.

1346
01:32:43,000 --> 01:32:46,000
Two strikes and nothing.

1347
01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:51,000
Gibson is fan nine.

1348
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:54,000
In the first game of the World Series he fanned ten.

1349
01:32:54,000 --> 01:32:56,000
In his second game he struck out six.

1350
01:32:56,000 --> 01:32:57,000
Here's the pitch.

1351
01:32:57,000 --> 01:33:00,000
Foul tipped as Scott had a good cut.

1352
01:33:00,000 --> 01:33:03,000
Two strikes, no ball.

1353
01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:09,000
Yostromski opened the inning with a walk but was forced by Ken Howse.

1354
01:33:09,000 --> 01:33:12,000
The Red Sox have had one run, one hit, one air.

1355
01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:15,000
The Cardinals seven runs, ten hits, one air.

1356
01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:19,000
That's the story as of now.

1357
01:33:19,000 --> 01:33:21,000
The stretch by Gibson, the pitch to Scott.

1358
01:33:21,000 --> 01:33:23,000
Swung on, a hard pop foul.

1359
01:33:23,000 --> 01:33:26,000
McCarver coming back, near the screen, may have a play.

1360
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:28,000
He does.

1361
01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:30,000
Scott fouls to McCarver.

1362
01:33:30,000 --> 01:33:32,000
Two away.

1363
01:33:32,000 --> 01:33:38,000
And that will bring up Reggie Smith, the brilliant center fielder of the Red Sox.

1364
01:33:38,000 --> 01:33:42,000
Who at age 22 would seem to have some future theory.

1365
01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:46,000
Well I've seen Reggie Smith part of this this year and he's going to be a good hitter.

1366
01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:48,000
There's no doubt about that.

1367
01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:51,000
He has one of the greatest arms I've ever seen.

1368
01:33:51,000 --> 01:33:58,000
I've seen him make a couple of throws this year, throwing men out at home plate where I thought he had no chance to throw a runner out.

1369
01:33:58,000 --> 01:34:01,000
And you're right, Harry, he's going to be a great one.

1370
01:34:01,000 --> 01:34:03,000
He's had two home runs in this World Series.

1371
01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:04,000
He's nothing out of two in this game.

1372
01:34:04,000 --> 01:34:06,000
Here's Gibson's pitch.

1373
01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:09,000
And it's a fastball high and outside.

1374
01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:15,000
Reggie Smith has had one hit against Bob Gibson in the World Series, one out of eight.

1375
01:34:15,000 --> 01:34:18,000
Two men are gone, Harrelson's at first base.

1376
01:34:18,000 --> 01:34:19,000
We're in the bottom of the seventh.

1377
01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:20,000
Gibson's pitch.

1378
01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:22,000
And it's a fastball high and outside.

1379
01:34:22,000 --> 01:34:24,000
Ball two.

1380
01:34:24,000 --> 01:34:26,000
Two balls, no strikes.

1381
01:34:26,000 --> 01:34:33,000
Reggie steps out of the batter's box, takes a look at the third base coach, Ed Papowski.

1382
01:34:33,000 --> 01:34:37,000
The Red Sox trailing by six.

1383
01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:39,000
They've been a miracle team all year long.

1384
01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:40,000
Here's the pitch.

1385
01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:42,000
And it's a strike call.

1386
01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:49,000
A good slider caught the outside corner of Bonneha.

1387
01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:54,000
Two men are away, bottom of the seventh.

1388
01:34:54,000 --> 01:35:00,000
Bob Gibson from the belt delivers.

1389
01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:03,000
Hot shot foul, Bobby Dore.

1390
01:35:03,000 --> 01:35:06,000
Does a little cha-cha-cha step down there, skips the rope as it were.

1391
01:35:06,000 --> 01:35:14,000
And that's the foul ball roll under his feet.

1392
01:35:14,000 --> 01:35:20,000
We have a runner at first, Ken Harrelson, who forced Carl Yostremski open the inning with a walk.

1393
01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:27,000
Scott then fouled a McCarver and we have Reggie Smith up there swinging and pulling the ball foul out of the park.

1394
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:31,000
Two balls, two strikes.

1395
01:35:31,000 --> 01:35:36,000
We're in the bottom of the seventh.

1396
01:35:36,000 --> 01:35:41,000
The Cardinals got out in front early with two in the third, two in the fifth, three in the sixth.

1397
01:35:41,000 --> 01:35:43,000
The Red Sox scored in the fifth.

1398
01:35:43,000 --> 01:35:44,000
Here's the pitch.

1399
01:35:44,000 --> 01:35:47,000
High ball three.

1400
01:35:47,000 --> 01:35:48,000
Three balls, two strikes.

1401
01:35:48,000 --> 01:35:51,000
Harrelson will be going with the pitch.

1402
01:35:51,000 --> 01:35:59,000
Enrico Panticelli is kneeling in the on-deck circle.

1403
01:35:59,000 --> 01:36:00,000
There's the stretch.

1404
01:36:00,000 --> 01:36:02,000
There goes Harrelson with the pitch.

1405
01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:04,000
Bouncing ball foul.

1406
01:36:04,000 --> 01:36:06,000
Passed Bobby Dore again.

1407
01:36:06,000 --> 01:36:09,000
And Ken Harrelson returns to first base.

1408
01:36:09,000 --> 01:36:18,000
Gibson has walked two and fan nine, allowed one hit.

1409
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:21,000
Reggie Smith about her.

1410
01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:25,000
Switch hitter, hitting left-handed, of course, against Bob Gibson.

1411
01:36:25,000 --> 01:36:29,000
Three balls, two strikes.

1412
01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:30,000
There goes Harrelson.

1413
01:36:30,000 --> 01:36:31,000
Here's the pitch.

1414
01:36:31,000 --> 01:36:32,000
Swamp.

1415
01:36:32,000 --> 01:36:33,000
High pop fly.

1416
01:36:33,000 --> 01:36:35,000
Down to first base line.

1417
01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:37,000
Javier crawling to the ball.

1418
01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:39,000
Makes the catch with it back to the end bit.

1419
01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:42,000
Reggie Smith popped to Javier.

1420
01:36:42,000 --> 01:36:45,000
No runs, no hits, no errors, one left.

1421
01:36:45,000 --> 01:36:51,000
And at the end of seven full innings, it's save over seven, Boston one.

1422
01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:54,000
Harry Curran on PB Race.

1423
01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:56,000
Bringing you the seventh game of the World Series.

1424
01:36:56,000 --> 01:36:58,000
Fenway Park in Boston.

1425
01:36:58,000 --> 01:37:00,000
We're going to the top half of the eighth inning.

1426
01:37:00,000 --> 01:37:03,000
The first hitter for the Cardinals will be Mike Shannon.

1427
01:37:03,000 --> 01:37:06,000
Then it'll be Javier and Dal Maxwell.

1428
01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:09,000
Santiago will be the pitcher.

1429
01:37:09,000 --> 01:37:13,000
He took over for Jim Longbaugh who started this game for the Boston Red Sox.

1430
01:37:13,000 --> 01:37:15,000
Gibson's still in there for the Cardinals.

1431
01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:17,000
I'll tell you all about it, Harry Carrey.

1432
01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:19,000
All right, here we have Mike Shannon.

1433
01:37:19,000 --> 01:37:20,000
We'll leave it all for the Cardinals.

1434
01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:25,000
He's nothing out of three in this game.

1435
01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:28,000
Facing Jose Santiago.

1436
01:37:28,000 --> 01:37:30,000
Ball game in the top of the eighth.

1437
01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:35,000
St. Louis out in front.

1438
01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:39,000
Santiago has his side.

1439
01:37:39,000 --> 01:37:43,000
And the pitch to Shannon.

1440
01:37:43,000 --> 01:37:44,000
Swung on a bouncing ball.

1441
01:37:44,000 --> 01:37:48,000
Petrocelli has it, but good alarm of his, and Shannon is out at first base.

1442
01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:50,000
Petrocelli throws out Jim.

1443
01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:52,000
One away.

1444
01:37:52,000 --> 01:37:58,000
Petrocelli has about as fine looking a shot stop as you could want to see.

1445
01:37:58,000 --> 01:38:01,000
Great arm, moves around gingerly.

1446
01:38:01,000 --> 01:38:02,000
Has good range.

1447
01:38:02,000 --> 01:38:05,000
And not only that, he hits the ball with power.

1448
01:38:05,000 --> 01:38:13,000
Here's Javier who's had two hits in this game, including a three-run homer.

1449
01:38:13,000 --> 01:38:15,000
Santiago's pitch.

1450
01:38:15,000 --> 01:38:18,000
And it's a fastball in there for a strike call.

1451
01:38:18,000 --> 01:38:23,000
Jim Lomborg pitched the first six innings.

1452
01:38:23,000 --> 01:38:26,000
Santiago has retired four men in a row.

1453
01:38:26,000 --> 01:38:29,000
Dave Moorhead is now warming up in the Boston bullpen.

1454
01:38:29,000 --> 01:38:31,000
Santiago's pitch.

1455
01:38:31,000 --> 01:38:33,000
Curveball, and he wasn't fishing for that one.

1456
01:38:33,000 --> 01:38:34,000
Missed it a mile.

1457
01:38:34,000 --> 01:38:36,000
A wide-breaking curve.

1458
01:38:36,000 --> 01:38:39,000
Strike two on Javier.

1459
01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:44,000
Javier has had nine hits in this series and 24 times at bat.

1460
01:38:44,000 --> 01:38:49,000
Including a three-run homer, his first World Series homer.

1461
01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:51,000
Out of pitch.

1462
01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:52,000
Long drive right field.

1463
01:38:52,000 --> 01:38:54,000
Harrelson going back.

1464
01:38:54,000 --> 01:38:55,000
Near the track.

1465
01:38:55,000 --> 01:38:57,000
Leaps and he makes the catch.

1466
01:38:57,000 --> 01:38:59,000
A beautiful play.

1467
01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:04,000
Ken Harrelson went back to the track and made a backhanded leaping catch.

1468
01:39:04,000 --> 01:39:07,000
And Javier is good for an extra base hit.

1469
01:39:07,000 --> 01:39:14,000
A fine play by the converted outfielder.

1470
01:39:14,000 --> 01:39:18,000
Harry Kent is not supposed to be a good defensive outfielder, but that was a tough play.

1471
01:39:18,000 --> 01:39:20,000
That ball was hit directly over his head.

1472
01:39:20,000 --> 01:39:21,000
It was a tough play.

1473
01:39:21,000 --> 01:39:24,000
He turned right on it and caught it right up against the fence.

1474
01:39:24,000 --> 01:39:26,000
Here's Don Knoxville.

1475
01:39:26,000 --> 01:39:28,000
And the first pitch to him is high and inside.

1476
01:39:28,000 --> 01:39:30,000
Knoxville has had one hit today.

1477
01:39:30,000 --> 01:39:34,000
Left off the third inning with a triple.

1478
01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:38,000
And later scoring on a two-out single by Flunt.

1479
01:39:38,000 --> 01:39:39,000
Here's the pitch.

1480
01:39:39,000 --> 01:39:41,000
Curveball low.

1481
01:39:41,000 --> 01:39:48,000
Santiago seems much sharper today than he did in either game he started.

1482
01:39:48,000 --> 01:39:54,000
He pitched real well in the first game but lost 2-1 to Gibson.

1483
01:39:54,000 --> 01:39:56,000
Now to wind up and here's the pitch.

1484
01:39:56,000 --> 01:39:59,000
High pop fly on the infield.

1485
01:39:59,000 --> 01:40:01,000
George Scott backing out on the grass.

1486
01:40:01,000 --> 01:40:03,000
Waiting far and he takes it.

1487
01:40:03,000 --> 01:40:06,000
So Knoxville pops out to Scott.

1488
01:40:06,000 --> 01:40:08,000
One, two, three, nothing across.

1489
01:40:08,000 --> 01:40:12,000
And at the end, the seven and a half innings here at Boston.

1490
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:19,000
The score, St. Louis 7, the Red Sox 1.

1491
01:40:19,000 --> 01:40:22,000
Dalton Jones is going to be the pinch hitter next.

1492
01:40:22,000 --> 01:40:24,000
Petticelli 0-2 today.

1493
01:40:24,000 --> 01:40:25,000
The pitch is high.

1494
01:40:25,000 --> 01:40:28,000
Ball two.

1495
01:40:28,000 --> 01:40:31,000
Petticelli fanned on the second and fanned again on the fifth.

1496
01:40:31,000 --> 01:40:36,000
Right-handed batter with good power.

1497
01:40:36,000 --> 01:40:38,000
Hit 17 homers during the season.

1498
01:40:38,000 --> 01:40:39,000
Here's the pitch.

1499
01:40:39,000 --> 01:40:41,000
A fast ball in there for a strike call.

1500
01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:46,000
Two balls and a strike.

1501
01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:48,000
Here's the windup and the pitch.

1502
01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:50,000
Line drive, base hit.

1503
01:40:50,000 --> 01:40:51,000
Into the left field corner.

1504
01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:52,000
Might be extra bases.

1505
01:40:52,000 --> 01:40:54,000
Petticelli's around first.

1506
01:40:54,000 --> 01:40:55,000
He's heading for second.

1507
01:40:55,000 --> 01:40:57,000
Broad's throw.

1508
01:40:57,000 --> 01:41:00,000
Hey, but second base.

1509
01:41:00,000 --> 01:41:03,000
A strong throw by Luke Rock out of the left field corner.

1510
01:41:03,000 --> 01:41:07,000
But Petticelli went sliding into the bag safely.

1511
01:41:07,000 --> 01:41:09,000
So there's the second hit.

1512
01:41:09,000 --> 01:41:12,000
The Red Sox have had two hits off Gibson and both have been

1513
01:41:12,000 --> 01:41:14,000
for extra bases.

1514
01:41:14,000 --> 01:41:17,000
A pimple by Scott and a double by Petticelli.

1515
01:41:17,000 --> 01:41:20,000
Here's Dalton Jones.

1516
01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:24,000
Seven hits in the series, batting 389.

1517
01:41:24,000 --> 01:41:26,000
Left-handed hitter.

1518
01:41:26,000 --> 01:41:28,000
Hit 289 during the season.

1519
01:41:28,000 --> 01:41:30,000
Here's the pitch.

1520
01:41:30,000 --> 01:41:35,000
Just away from a cover and Petticelli advances to third.

1521
01:41:35,000 --> 01:41:44,000
Let's see how they're going to call that.

1522
01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:48,000
Wild pitch on Bob Gibson.

1523
01:41:48,000 --> 01:41:50,000
And Billy Muffet comes out of the cardinal dugout.

1524
01:41:50,000 --> 01:41:53,000
He used to pitch to the Boston Red Sox.

1525
01:41:53,000 --> 01:41:56,000
He's the pitching coach for the St. Louis Cardinals now.

1526
01:41:56,000 --> 01:41:58,000
He used to pitch for St. Louis also.

1527
01:41:58,000 --> 01:42:00,000
And he's talking to Bob Gibson.

1528
01:42:00,000 --> 01:42:04,000
A double by Petticelli and a wild pitch.

1529
01:42:04,000 --> 01:42:09,000
Places Petticelli at third base with nobody out.

1530
01:42:09,000 --> 01:42:12,000
And Dalton Jones is the hitter with Narn Seabourn

1531
01:42:12,000 --> 01:42:14,000
waiting to pitch hit next.

1532
01:42:14,000 --> 01:42:17,000
Jones is batting for Olsen-Howard.

1533
01:42:17,000 --> 01:42:23,000
Seabourn will be hitting for Jose Santiago.

1534
01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:25,000
The Cardinal infield plays back.

1535
01:42:25,000 --> 01:42:27,000
Willing to concede the run.

1536
01:42:27,000 --> 01:42:29,000
They have a 7-1 lead.

1537
01:42:29,000 --> 01:42:31,000
The wind up by Gibson to fifth.

1538
01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:32,000
Pass ball outside.

1539
01:42:32,000 --> 01:42:36,000
Ball to Steve Carlton, the left-hander.

1540
01:42:36,000 --> 01:42:40,000
Nelson Braz, the right-hander, are in the cardinal bullpen.

1541
01:42:40,000 --> 01:42:42,000
The wind up to fifth.

1542
01:42:42,000 --> 01:42:45,000
Ball outside.

1543
01:42:45,000 --> 01:42:47,000
Ball three.

1544
01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:49,000
The Red Sox.

1545
01:42:49,000 --> 01:42:52,000
The Brazos fans rowing again.

1546
01:42:52,000 --> 01:42:55,000
With a good start here in the eighth inning to pitch.

1547
01:42:55,000 --> 01:42:56,000
Ball four.

1548
01:42:56,000 --> 01:42:58,000
He wants it.

1549
01:42:58,000 --> 01:43:01,000
Now Dalton Jones gets a base on ball.

1550
01:43:01,000 --> 01:43:08,000
And that'll bring up Narn Seabourn.

1551
01:43:08,000 --> 01:43:12,000
Left-handed batter, Cepeda, comes over to top.

1552
01:43:12,000 --> 01:43:14,000
To Bob Gibson.

1553
01:43:14,000 --> 01:43:18,000
That for Gibson is the third base on ball to his gimmick.

1554
01:43:18,000 --> 01:43:24,000
In the previous two games he had walked only one man.

1555
01:43:24,000 --> 01:43:28,000
So here's Seabourn when runners are first and third.

1556
01:43:28,000 --> 01:43:33,000
St. Louis leading 7-1.

1557
01:43:33,000 --> 01:43:36,000
Seabourn, left-hand hitter to pitch.

1558
01:43:36,000 --> 01:43:39,000
There's a strike out the knees, Carl.

1559
01:43:39,000 --> 01:43:47,000
One strike and up off.

1560
01:43:47,000 --> 01:43:50,000
Seabourn has power.

1561
01:43:50,000 --> 01:43:52,000
Gibson's pitch.

1562
01:43:52,000 --> 01:43:56,000
Curled in there, strike off.

1563
01:43:56,000 --> 01:44:00,000
Seabourn hit.220, used as a pinch hitter most of the way.

1564
01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:02,000
Groban's seventh run.

1565
01:44:02,000 --> 01:44:06,000
Makes his home outside of Kansas City now.

1566
01:44:06,000 --> 01:44:09,000
Formerly played with the Yankees as well as other clubs.

1567
01:44:09,000 --> 01:44:11,000
Here's a stretch pitch to him.

1568
01:44:11,000 --> 01:44:12,000
Bouncing ball to Javier.

1569
01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:13,000
The run will score.

1570
01:44:13,000 --> 01:44:15,000
The throw is the second, fourth play.

1571
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:20,000
Seabourn drives in the run as he forces Dalton Jones from Javier to Maxon.

1572
01:44:20,000 --> 01:44:23,000
That makes it 7-2.

1573
01:44:23,000 --> 01:44:25,000
Here in the bottom of the eighth.

1574
01:44:25,000 --> 01:44:29,000
And here's Joe Foy.

1575
01:44:29,000 --> 01:44:36,000
Foy in this game, walk, was out on strikes and fouled to the catcher.

1576
01:44:36,000 --> 01:44:40,000
Nothing out of four against Gibson in the series.

1577
01:44:40,000 --> 01:44:41,000
The pitch.

1578
01:44:41,000 --> 01:44:45,000
And it's a strike, a slider caught the outside corner.

1579
01:44:45,000 --> 01:44:47,000
Gibson throwing all hard stuff.

1580
01:44:47,000 --> 01:44:51,000
Fast balls and slider.

1581
01:44:51,000 --> 01:44:54,000
Seabourn, a short lead off first base.

1582
01:44:54,000 --> 01:44:56,000
The Red Sox have to play it safe.

1583
01:44:56,000 --> 01:44:58,000
They're looking for the big inning.

1584
01:44:58,000 --> 01:44:59,000
Here's the stretch.

1585
01:44:59,000 --> 01:45:01,000
The pitch.

1586
01:45:01,000 --> 01:45:03,000
Low.

1587
01:45:03,000 --> 01:45:07,000
Into the dirt, not evens it up at a ball and a strike.

1588
01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:10,000
Gibson's still throwing hard.

1589
01:45:10,000 --> 01:45:12,000
Steve Carlton, a left-hander.

1590
01:45:12,000 --> 01:45:13,000
Nelson Braves, a right-hander.

1591
01:45:13,000 --> 01:45:18,000
Both starting pitchers during the year while the Cardinals are in the bullpen.

1592
01:45:18,000 --> 01:45:20,000
One ball, one strike.

1593
01:45:20,000 --> 01:45:22,000
Their pitch.

1594
01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:25,000
He swung and he missed the curve ball.

1595
01:45:25,000 --> 01:45:29,000
Joe Foy.

1596
01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:33,000
Right-handed Batu has power.

1597
01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:35,000
Here's the pitch.

1598
01:45:35,000 --> 01:45:37,000
A slimmer down towards Cepeda.

1599
01:45:37,000 --> 01:45:40,000
Backhands of all, passes to Maxwell for the force play.

1600
01:45:40,000 --> 01:45:46,000
Cepeda, range to his right, where a squibber hit off the end of the bat with a lateral reverse spin.

1601
01:45:46,000 --> 01:45:49,000
Those kind can cause a lot of trouble frequently.

1602
01:45:49,000 --> 01:45:51,000
But the ball came up for him.

1603
01:45:51,000 --> 01:45:58,000
He fielded it backhanded and flipped to Maxwell for the force out of Seabourn.

1604
01:45:58,000 --> 01:46:03,000
So now here is Mike Andrews with a runner at first.

1605
01:46:03,000 --> 01:46:08,000
Two out, the score's 7-2.

1606
01:46:08,000 --> 01:46:11,000
Petrocelli opened the same with a double.

1607
01:46:11,000 --> 01:46:16,000
Advanced on a wild pitch and scored on a force out.

1608
01:46:16,000 --> 01:46:24,000
After Dalton Jones had walked, batting for Elston Howard, Norm Seabourg hitting for Santiago.

1609
01:46:24,000 --> 01:46:28,000
Bounce into a force play, allowing Petrocelli to score.

1610
01:46:28,000 --> 01:46:30,000
Now the pitch to Andrews.

1611
01:46:30,000 --> 01:46:33,000
He didn't mean to swing and moved half down the first base line.

1612
01:46:33,000 --> 01:46:36,000
Gibson feels the ball and throws over to Cepeda.

1613
01:46:36,000 --> 01:46:38,000
Gibson coming off the mound quickly.

1614
01:46:38,000 --> 01:46:40,000
Andrews trying to stop his swing.

1615
01:46:40,000 --> 01:46:45,000
And so it's one run, one hit, no errors, one left.

1616
01:46:45,000 --> 01:46:50,000
And at the end of eight full innings, St. Louis 7, Boston 2.

1617
01:46:50,000 --> 01:46:55,000
Top of the ninth inning, the Cardinals are out in front, 7-2.

1618
01:46:55,000 --> 01:47:02,000
A good pitcher out there for the Boston Red Sox.

1619
01:47:02,000 --> 01:47:11,000
And now to wind up the final game of the 1967 World Series,

1620
01:47:11,000 --> 01:47:16,000
NBC's partner to Kurt Gotti on the game of the week, Pee Wee Reese.

1621
01:47:16,000 --> 01:47:18,000
Okay, thank you, Harry, very much.

1622
01:47:18,000 --> 01:47:20,000
We have a new pitcher, Dave Mohe.

1623
01:47:20,000 --> 01:47:24,000
We'll pause for 30 seconds for station identification.

1624
01:47:24,000 --> 01:47:32,000
WMAQ AM&F in Chicago.

1625
01:47:32,000 --> 01:47:35,000
I go to the top half of the ninth inning.

1626
01:47:35,000 --> 01:47:38,000
The Cardinals, seven runs, ten hits, and one error.

1627
01:47:38,000 --> 01:47:42,000
The Boston Red Sox, two runs, two hits, and one error.

1628
01:47:42,000 --> 01:47:47,000
Now Gibson's the first hitter, and it's a pleasure to have sitting by my side now.

1629
01:47:47,000 --> 01:47:51,000
A fellow who works on NBC with Tony Kubek every Saturday,

1630
01:47:51,000 --> 01:47:52,000
and I've worked with him before.

1631
01:47:52,000 --> 01:47:53,000
It's a pleasure having him here.

1632
01:47:53,000 --> 01:47:55,000
Jim Simpson. Jim?

1633
01:47:55,000 --> 01:47:58,000
Thank you, Pee Wee, very much.

1634
01:47:58,000 --> 01:48:05,000
Bob Gibson swings on the first pitch, foul it off the right, strike one.

1635
01:48:05,000 --> 01:48:10,000
The last inning here, unless the Red Sox can come up with five runs

1636
01:48:10,000 --> 01:48:14,000
in the bottom half of the ninth inning, don't ever count this ball club out.

1637
01:48:14,000 --> 01:48:16,000
They've done the impossible all year.

1638
01:48:16,000 --> 01:48:23,000
The Moorheads pitch to Bob Gibson, swing on, miss, strike two.

1639
01:48:23,000 --> 01:48:27,000
Moorhead, the third pitcher for the Red Sox.

1640
01:48:27,000 --> 01:48:29,000
Jim Lombard started for the Red Sox.

1641
01:48:29,000 --> 01:48:35,000
Then Santiago, a good curve ball by Moorhead, struck out.

1642
01:48:35,000 --> 01:48:39,000
Mr. Gibson.

1643
01:48:39,000 --> 01:48:41,000
So starting the top half of the ninth here,

1644
01:48:41,000 --> 01:48:44,000
Gibson strikes out, and that brings up Luberock.

1645
01:48:44,000 --> 01:48:49,000
Luberock had quite a series.

1646
01:48:49,000 --> 01:48:51,000
He's had two hits today.

1647
01:48:51,000 --> 01:48:57,000
Got a base hit in the fifth inning, stole second, and then stole third.

1648
01:48:57,000 --> 01:49:04,000
Got a double in the sixth inning, the first pitch to Luberock by Moorhead is low and outside, ball one.

1649
01:49:04,000 --> 01:49:07,000
The Cardinals scored two in the third, two in the fifth, and three in the sixth.

1650
01:49:07,000 --> 01:49:11,000
Red Sox scored one in the fifth, and one in the bottom of the eighth.

1651
01:49:11,000 --> 01:49:16,000
A breaking pitch inside, two balls, no strikes on Luberock.

1652
01:49:16,000 --> 01:49:20,000
Kirk Fleur, the on-deck circle.

1653
01:49:20,000 --> 01:49:22,000
It's gone right down to the wire.

1654
01:49:22,000 --> 01:49:26,000
We're the ninth inning now, the seventh game of the World Series.

1655
01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:29,000
The fastball just caught the inside corner.

1656
01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:33,000
Makes it count two balls and one strike on Lube.

1657
01:49:33,000 --> 01:49:38,000
Luberock, the left fielder for the Sanctuos Cardinals.

1658
01:49:38,000 --> 01:49:45,000
He has stolen six bases in these seven games.

1659
01:49:45,000 --> 01:49:51,000
He came into this game batting 400.

1660
01:49:51,000 --> 01:49:55,000
He's two for today.

1661
01:49:55,000 --> 01:49:57,000
They play him straight away.

1662
01:49:57,000 --> 01:50:02,000
The third baseman, Dalton Jones, weighing on the grass.

1663
01:50:02,000 --> 01:50:04,000
The count is now three balls and one strike.

1664
01:50:04,000 --> 01:50:05,000
His up pitch was too low.

1665
01:50:05,000 --> 01:50:13,000
Dalton Jones has taken over at third base for George Scott.

1666
01:50:13,000 --> 01:50:17,000
Moreheads pitch to Luberock is down on the left.

1667
01:50:17,000 --> 01:50:21,000
We also have a new catcher, Russ Gibson,

1668
01:50:21,000 --> 01:50:25,000
as we had a pinch hitter for Elson Howard in the last inning.

1669
01:50:25,000 --> 01:50:30,000
The Red Sox, whatever happens in this game,

1670
01:50:30,000 --> 01:50:34,000
I'll say one thing for them, they have nothing to be ashamed of.

1671
01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:36,000
They have played great ball.

1672
01:50:36,000 --> 01:50:40,000
There's a fastball inside.

1673
01:50:40,000 --> 01:50:42,000
Ball for us of Luberock.

1674
01:50:42,000 --> 01:50:48,000
Gets a free ticket.

1675
01:50:48,000 --> 01:50:53,000
And the score being seven to two, Luberock, who loves to run.

1676
01:50:53,000 --> 01:50:55,000
On top of five, he may not run here.

1677
01:50:55,000 --> 01:51:02,000
Kirk Blood is a hitter with one away.

1678
01:51:02,000 --> 01:51:06,000
There goes Brock. He took her off to throw the Gitsons in the dirt.

1679
01:51:06,000 --> 01:51:10,000
Gets by Andrew Petracelli.

1680
01:51:10,000 --> 01:51:19,000
Touch it out, but Luberock gets his third stolen base of the day

1681
01:51:19,000 --> 01:51:26,000
and the seventh in the series.

1682
01:51:26,000 --> 01:51:33,000
Dawkins Jones playing third in the place of Joe Foy.

1683
01:51:33,000 --> 01:51:41,000
Russ Gibson in the place of Elson Howard.

1684
01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:47,000
A new record has just been established by Luberock, seven stolen bases.

1685
01:51:47,000 --> 01:51:49,000
The pitcher's outside.

1686
01:51:49,000 --> 01:51:53,000
And one thing about this, Brock, whenever he gets on,

1687
01:51:53,000 --> 01:51:59,000
seems like he upsets everyone, the pitcher, the catcher, and the infielders.

1688
01:51:59,000 --> 01:52:04,000
And for playing in field so much when a guy's going to run, you have to always watch him.

1689
01:52:04,000 --> 01:52:09,000
As the pitcher's outside, three balls, no strikes on Kirk Blood.

1690
01:52:09,000 --> 01:52:14,000
The next hitter is Roger Marra.

1691
01:52:14,000 --> 01:52:18,000
The Red Sox trail in this game by a score of seven to two.

1692
01:52:18,000 --> 01:52:22,000
Gibson all the way for the Cardinals.

1693
01:52:22,000 --> 01:52:24,000
Here's the pitch.

1694
01:52:24,000 --> 01:52:29,000
That's for all the time outside.

1695
01:52:29,000 --> 01:52:36,000
So, Lube gets a free ticket.

1696
01:52:36,000 --> 01:52:38,000
And that brings up Roger Marra.

1697
01:52:38,000 --> 01:52:41,000
What has Roger done today? He's singled.

1698
01:52:41,000 --> 01:52:44,000
In the first inning, singled in the third inning.

1699
01:52:44,000 --> 01:52:49,000
He hit a sacrifice, Brian, the fifth inning, and hit a five balls to Reggie Smith in center field.

1700
01:52:49,000 --> 01:52:54,000
In the seventh inning, he's two for three.

1701
01:52:54,000 --> 01:52:56,000
Morehead's pitched to him.

1702
01:52:56,000 --> 01:52:58,000
A breaking pitch inside, ball one.

1703
01:52:58,000 --> 01:53:03,000
But Morehead's got a little wild streak here.

1704
01:53:03,000 --> 01:53:08,000
Morehead has a real good overhand curveball, good changeup.

1705
01:53:08,000 --> 01:53:13,000
His only problem is getting that curveball over.

1706
01:53:13,000 --> 01:53:15,000
One ball, no strikes for Roger Marra.

1707
01:53:15,000 --> 01:53:17,000
Here's the pitch, a fast ball inside.

1708
01:53:17,000 --> 01:53:25,000
Makes the count two and oh.

1709
01:53:25,000 --> 01:53:28,000
Dick Williams, out to say something to Morehead.

1710
01:53:28,000 --> 01:53:30,000
Russ Gibson, the catcher, comes out.

1711
01:53:30,000 --> 01:53:33,000
In the bullpen, we have Dan Osinski warming up.

1712
01:53:33,000 --> 01:53:37,000
And now then a left-hander's jumped up.

1713
01:53:37,000 --> 01:53:43,000
And his name is Ken Brett, 19-year-old left-hander we saw over in St. Louis.

1714
01:53:43,000 --> 01:53:45,000
And he looks sharp.

1715
01:53:45,000 --> 01:53:47,000
He's doing it pretty hard.

1716
01:53:47,000 --> 01:53:52,000
Williams now going off the field, Gibson back to his position.

1717
01:53:52,000 --> 01:53:55,000
And a few words with Morehead.

1718
01:53:55,000 --> 01:53:56,000
Trying to settle him down.

1719
01:53:56,000 --> 01:53:57,000
Runners on first and second.

1720
01:53:57,000 --> 01:53:58,000
Brock on it second.

1721
01:53:58,000 --> 01:53:59,000
On it first, Kurt Blood.

1722
01:53:59,000 --> 01:54:01,000
Roger Marra's for the hitter.

1723
01:54:01,000 --> 01:54:04,000
It's one away, two balls, no strikes on him.

1724
01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:06,000
Morehead looks back at Brock at second base.

1725
01:54:06,000 --> 01:54:07,000
Here's the pitch.

1726
01:54:07,000 --> 01:54:09,000
A swing and a foul, straight back.

1727
01:54:09,000 --> 01:54:14,000
And the count is two balls and one strike on Roger.

1728
01:54:14,000 --> 01:54:18,000
And a carry said a while ago that Brock Burry Selham steals third.

1729
01:54:18,000 --> 01:54:23,000
He saw him all year, but he did take off the last time he was on second and stole third.

1730
01:54:23,000 --> 01:54:26,000
Just watching him, he does not get too big of a jump.

1731
01:54:26,000 --> 01:54:30,000
Petrocelli is playing pretty close to him, right in back of him.

1732
01:54:30,000 --> 01:54:31,000
Roger Marra takes the next pitch.

1733
01:54:31,000 --> 01:54:35,000
It's low and outside, ball three.

1734
01:54:35,000 --> 01:54:38,000
Andrew is the second baseman, is playing Roger Marra to pull.

1735
01:54:38,000 --> 01:54:40,000
He's way over toward first base.

1736
01:54:40,000 --> 01:54:43,000
Petrocelli over close to the bag.

1737
01:54:43,000 --> 01:54:49,000
Dalton Jones at third, right level with the bag.

1738
01:54:49,000 --> 01:54:50,000
There's the pitch.

1739
01:54:50,000 --> 01:54:52,000
It's high and inside, ball four.

1740
01:54:52,000 --> 01:55:01,000
So the bases are loaded.

1741
01:55:01,000 --> 01:55:04,000
So that's the third walk.

1742
01:55:04,000 --> 01:55:08,000
Giving up a morehead and coming out of the dugout.

1743
01:55:08,000 --> 01:55:16,000
An old friend of mine will play with me over at the Dodgers, and I played against him quite a few years when he was with the Giants and quite a pitcher he was.

1744
01:55:16,000 --> 01:55:19,000
His name is Sal Magley.

1745
01:55:19,000 --> 01:55:25,000
And he just gave a little sign out for the bullpen, looks to me like we're going to get a right-hander.

1746
01:55:25,000 --> 01:55:32,000
And I believe it will be Dan Osinski.

1747
01:55:32,000 --> 01:55:43,000
Not only has Brock broken the series record with seven stolen bases, his three steals in a game ties the series record.

1748
01:55:43,000 --> 01:55:47,000
That was held by Hannes Wagner.

1749
01:55:47,000 --> 01:55:51,000
A lot of you fans will remember the great shortstop that played with the Pirates.

1750
01:55:51,000 --> 01:55:58,000
And I had a pleasure beating Hannes before he passed on, and what a great man he was.

1751
01:55:58,000 --> 01:56:01,000
Well, Jim, up to this point, what have you thought about this game?

1752
01:56:01,000 --> 01:56:06,000
Well, Peewee, for those of whom are Red Sox fans, of course the Red Sox are in deep trouble now.

1753
01:56:06,000 --> 01:56:09,000
The morehead has given up three consecutive walks with only one out.

1754
01:56:09,000 --> 01:56:13,000
But we can only look ahead because it is up to the Red Sox to do the scoring of more runs.

1755
01:56:13,000 --> 01:56:16,000
In the last of the night, it will be Jusfranski, Harrelson, and Scott.

1756
01:56:16,000 --> 01:56:21,000
In other words, the Red Sox go right into the middle of their power.

1757
01:56:21,000 --> 01:56:24,000
Okay, Jim.

1758
01:56:24,000 --> 01:56:25,000
Well, it's just a shame.

1759
01:56:25,000 --> 01:56:31,000
Jim Lomborgue, who started this game, and he looked pretty good for a while,

1760
01:56:31,000 --> 01:56:33,000
and you have to give him a lot of credit.

1761
01:56:33,000 --> 01:56:36,000
He showed nothing but courage all year.

1762
01:56:36,000 --> 01:56:40,000
He's pitched the big games for the Red Sox when they needed him.

1763
01:56:40,000 --> 01:56:47,000
I saw him pitch that game on Sunday against the Minnesota Twins when they had to win.

1764
01:56:47,000 --> 01:56:51,000
Not only did he pitch and win the game, he started the rally

1765
01:56:51,000 --> 01:56:55,000
that brought him back with a bump down the third base line.

1766
01:56:55,000 --> 01:56:58,000
He's pitched a lot of baseball this year.

1767
01:56:58,000 --> 01:57:02,000
This is Jim Simpson along with Pee Wee Reese back at Fenway Park in Boston.

1768
01:57:02,000 --> 01:57:03,000
We're in the ninth inning.

1769
01:57:03,000 --> 01:57:06,000
The bases are loaded with one out, and the Cardinals lead 7-2.

1770
01:57:06,000 --> 01:57:09,000
Osinski, the new pitcher, and he'll face Orlando Cepeda.

1771
01:57:09,000 --> 01:57:10,000
Pee Wee?

1772
01:57:10,000 --> 01:57:12,000
The bases are loaded.

1773
01:57:12,000 --> 01:57:17,000
Orlando Cepeda, the hitter, and all the runners got there by the way of the walk by morehead.

1774
01:57:17,000 --> 01:57:18,000
The first pitch for Osinski.

1775
01:57:18,000 --> 01:57:22,000
It's popped up down the third base line in foul territory.

1776
01:57:22,000 --> 01:57:24,000
Dalton Jones calls far.

1777
01:57:24,000 --> 01:57:28,000
Rico Pescioli comes over and backs of him and takes it.

1778
01:57:28,000 --> 01:57:34,000
Blue rocket, third base, tags up, makes a little blip with no one there at third.

1779
01:57:34,000 --> 01:57:36,000
But I don't think he was really serious about it.

1780
01:57:36,000 --> 01:57:39,000
Osinski, the pitcher, came in and cut the ball off.

1781
01:57:39,000 --> 01:57:46,000
But Joe Wade, as Cepeda,

1782
01:57:46,000 --> 01:57:49,000
still having trouble with that bat.

1783
01:57:49,000 --> 01:57:54,000
Now then we're going to have Magni come back out again.

1784
01:57:54,000 --> 01:58:00,000
And it wouldn't be a bit surprise that we may see the young left-hander,

1785
01:58:00,000 --> 01:58:03,000
Ken Brett, coming in here.

1786
01:58:03,000 --> 01:58:06,000
And the fans like this.

1787
01:58:11,000 --> 01:58:14,000
Ken Brett, 19 years old.

1788
01:58:14,000 --> 01:58:17,000
This will be a good experience for him, Jim.

1789
01:58:17,000 --> 01:58:19,000
He may be around for a long time.

1790
01:58:19,000 --> 01:58:21,000
He looked very good in St. Louis, Pee-wee.

1791
01:58:21,000 --> 01:58:26,000
And as McCarver's about to come to bat, we cannot help but remember what you and Harry Caravan have been saying all along.

1792
01:58:26,000 --> 01:58:32,000
McCarver, as well as Elson Howard of Boston Red Sox, have not been having good series with the bat.

1793
01:58:32,000 --> 01:58:36,000
But Pee-wee, I'm sure that you will agree that they are the men who have been handling the pitchers,

1794
01:58:36,000 --> 01:58:40,000
such as Jim Lawnbord, Nelson Wiles, and of course Bob Gibson.

1795
01:58:40,000 --> 01:58:43,000
They're the ones who run this ball club, or these ball clubs when they're on the field.

1796
01:58:43,000 --> 01:58:48,000
In that respect, I would say that McCarver and Howard have done tremendous jobs.

1797
01:58:48,000 --> 01:58:51,000
It is only a shame that Howard, who could be playing his last year,

1798
01:58:51,000 --> 01:58:56,000
and McCarver, who had such a great series back in 1964, have not done better as hitters.

1799
01:58:56,000 --> 01:58:59,000
But as catchers, they've done exactly what they're supposed to do.

1800
01:58:59,000 --> 01:59:00,000
Ken Brett is coming in.

1801
01:59:00,000 --> 01:59:01,000
Pee-wee.

1802
01:59:01,000 --> 01:59:03,000
Okay, Jim, yes sir.

1803
01:59:03,000 --> 01:59:07,000
McCarver, as you said, has not had a good series with the bat.

1804
01:59:07,000 --> 01:59:12,000
But back in 1964, talk about hitting.

1805
01:59:12,000 --> 01:59:19,000
He was a batting leader in the 64 series, hitting a full 478,

1806
01:59:19,000 --> 01:59:24,000
getting at least one hit in each of the seven games.

1807
01:59:24,000 --> 01:59:31,000
His 478 average was the best by a National League player since Pepper Martin's 500 in 1931.

1808
01:59:31,000 --> 01:59:37,000
Now, you're talking about Pepper Martin and the old Gas House Gang, the San Luis Cardinals.

1809
01:59:37,000 --> 01:59:42,000
You know, it would have been nice, Jim, to see a couple of fellows here at the series.

1810
01:59:42,000 --> 01:59:47,000
I understand one of them was here, Lefty Grove, a great pitcher with the Red Sox.

1811
01:59:47,000 --> 01:59:55,000
And he was the last pitcher to win 30 games in the American League, 31 in 1931.

1812
01:59:55,000 --> 02:00:03,000
And Dizzy Dean, who pitched for the Cardinals, he was the last pitcher to win 30 games in the National League.

1813
02:00:03,000 --> 02:00:05,000
That was back in 1934.

1814
02:00:05,000 --> 02:00:11,000
Dean pitching for the Cardinals and Dill pitching for the Red Sox and a couple of great ones.

1815
02:00:11,000 --> 02:00:19,000
Well, we're about ready to go as young Ken Brett, ready to take over with the bases loaded two men away.

1816
02:00:19,000 --> 02:00:21,000
And Tim McCarver is a hitter.

1817
02:00:21,000 --> 02:00:28,000
Block on at third, Flurrod on at second, and Roger Marison at first base.

1818
02:00:28,000 --> 02:00:30,000
Let's have a look at Ken Brett.

1819
02:00:30,000 --> 02:00:35,000
Into the windup, the pitch, good fastball, hit down to George Scott at first base.

1820
02:00:35,000 --> 02:00:38,000
He'll take it himself.

1821
02:00:38,000 --> 02:00:41,000
One pitch, and the youngs in there out.

1822
02:00:41,000 --> 02:00:45,000
So that's all for the Cardinals here in the top half of the ninth inning.

1823
02:00:45,000 --> 02:00:47,000
No runs.

1824
02:00:47,000 --> 02:00:55,000
So the score after eight and a half innings of play, they go to Cardinals 7, the Boston Red Sox 2.

1825
02:00:55,000 --> 02:01:00,000
Well, Pee-wee, we move now to the bottom of the ninth inning, it'll be Yostrinsky, Harrelson, and Scott.

1826
02:01:00,000 --> 02:01:06,000
And I'm sure that everyone in New England knows and around the country that the Boston Red Sox were not supposed to have won the American League tennis.

1827
02:01:06,000 --> 02:01:09,000
Those two big games for the Minnesota Twins came from behind and won both.

1828
02:01:09,000 --> 02:01:13,000
They were down three games to one to the Cardinals and have come back to win the next game.

1829
02:01:13,000 --> 02:01:15,000
They've got this series at 6-6.

1830
02:01:15,000 --> 02:01:18,000
They're now down by five runs, seven to two, three outs to go.

1831
02:01:18,000 --> 02:01:22,000
But here's the big one coming up, Pee-wee, Kyle Yostrinsky.

1832
02:01:22,000 --> 02:01:24,000
Yes, sir, never count them out.

1833
02:01:24,000 --> 02:01:27,000
Bob Gibson's first pitch to Yostrinsky is low and outside.

1834
02:01:27,000 --> 02:01:30,000
Ball one, the last chance for the Red Sox.

1835
02:01:30,000 --> 02:01:34,000
And they have a great one starting off here in the top, bottom half of the ninth inning.

1836
02:01:34,000 --> 02:01:35,000
It's 8-3, 7-2.

1837
02:01:35,000 --> 02:01:44,000
Bob Gibson's pitch to Kyle Yostrinsky, a fastball that's outside, ball two.

1838
02:01:44,000 --> 02:01:48,000
Still have action in the Cardinals, full pin.

1839
02:01:48,000 --> 02:01:51,000
Nelson Browns and Steve Carver.

1840
02:01:51,000 --> 02:01:53,000
Browns the right-hander, Carver the left-hander.

1841
02:01:53,000 --> 02:01:55,000
Yostrinsky takes the next pitch.

1842
02:01:55,000 --> 02:01:57,000
It's too low.

1843
02:01:57,000 --> 02:02:05,000
Ball three, the last time up Yostrinsky walked.

1844
02:02:05,000 --> 02:02:08,000
The three and 0 pitch Yostrinsky will be taking all the way.

1845
02:02:08,000 --> 02:02:11,000
He was and was right down in there for ball strike one.

1846
02:02:11,000 --> 02:02:16,000
He backs out of there, checks with Popowski's coach at third base and said,

1847
02:02:16,000 --> 02:02:19,000
Eddie, you want me to swing at this one or take it?

1848
02:02:19,000 --> 02:02:21,000
Three and one's a count on him.

1849
02:02:21,000 --> 02:02:23,000
Here's the pitch.

1850
02:02:23,000 --> 02:02:25,000
He's swinging at base hit out of the right field.

1851
02:02:25,000 --> 02:02:44,000
Yostrinsky.

1852
02:02:44,000 --> 02:02:47,000
Yostrinsky's last time at bat and that's the way to finish the season.

1853
02:02:47,000 --> 02:02:52,000
Who knows, let's wait and see. Ken Halston.

1854
02:02:52,000 --> 02:02:53,000
He's a hitter.

1855
02:02:53,000 --> 02:03:02,000
Bob Gibson's first pitch to a low and outside ball one.

1856
02:03:02,000 --> 02:03:05,000
Defensively for the Cardinals, Sepeda at first, Javier at second,

1857
02:03:05,000 --> 02:03:08,000
Maxwell at short, Mike Shannon at third base.

1858
02:03:08,000 --> 02:03:13,000
Bob Gibson's pitch to Halston, high and inside, ball two.

1859
02:03:13,000 --> 02:03:16,000
Red C&D's coming out of the dugout.

1860
02:03:16,000 --> 02:03:24,000
Walks the top until he's hitter Bob Gibson.

1861
02:03:24,000 --> 02:03:27,000
Macarver out.

1862
02:03:27,000 --> 02:03:32,000
Mike Shannon in.

1863
02:03:32,000 --> 02:03:37,000
Red C&D's gives him a little pat as Steve Popper, left-hander,

1864
02:03:37,000 --> 02:03:43,000
Nelson Browes continue to throw in the bullpen.

1865
02:03:43,000 --> 02:03:46,000
Red says, Bob, take it easy.

1866
02:03:46,000 --> 02:03:50,000
Not too fast.

1867
02:03:50,000 --> 02:03:55,000
As Bob Gibson falls behind, Ken Harrelson here at the bottom half

1868
02:03:55,000 --> 02:03:57,000
of ninth inning.

1869
02:03:57,000 --> 02:03:59,000
Hal Yostrinsky on at first base.

1870
02:03:59,000 --> 02:04:00,000
Gibson, one set.

1871
02:04:00,000 --> 02:04:02,000
Here's the pitch.

1872
02:04:02,000 --> 02:04:04,000
Fastball in there for ball strike one.

1873
02:04:04,000 --> 02:04:06,000
No one away.

1874
02:04:06,000 --> 02:04:11,000
The score, Cardinals seven, the Red Sox two in the bottom half

1875
02:04:11,000 --> 02:04:13,000
of ninth inning.

1876
02:04:13,000 --> 02:04:14,000
Here's the pitch.

1877
02:04:14,000 --> 02:04:16,000
Little tap is fouled down the third baseline.

1878
02:04:16,000 --> 02:04:22,000
Shannon in, picks the ball up and drops it.

1879
02:04:22,000 --> 02:04:28,000
He was a count up of two and two.

1880
02:04:28,000 --> 02:04:31,000
Halston all for three on the day.

1881
02:04:31,000 --> 02:04:35,000
Stuck out the first and in the fourth.

1882
02:04:35,000 --> 02:04:36,000
Gets the force out.

1883
02:04:36,000 --> 02:04:37,000
The seventh inning.

1884
02:04:37,000 --> 02:04:38,000
Here's the pitch to him.

1885
02:04:38,000 --> 02:04:39,000
Down foul off the next one short.

1886
02:04:39,000 --> 02:04:42,000
The football with Javier for one, the third of first.

1887
02:04:42,000 --> 02:04:45,000
A double play.

1888
02:04:45,000 --> 02:04:49,000
A real fine double play as Maxwell had to go in the hole.

1889
02:04:49,000 --> 02:04:52,000
The shortstop for the Cardinals gave the ball with something on it

1890
02:04:52,000 --> 02:04:54,000
to Javier at second base.

1891
02:04:54,000 --> 02:05:01,000
And the throw with a subpoena for a double play.

1892
02:05:01,000 --> 02:05:03,000
So it's two away.

1893
02:05:03,000 --> 02:05:06,000
And brings up George Scott.

1894
02:05:06,000 --> 02:05:08,000
The last hope for the Red Sox.

1895
02:05:08,000 --> 02:05:11,000
Swings on the first pitch and fouls it back.

1896
02:05:11,000 --> 02:05:18,000
Strike one.

1897
02:05:18,000 --> 02:05:22,000
Scott one for three.

1898
02:05:22,000 --> 02:05:25,000
Hit a triple in the fifth inning.

1899
02:05:25,000 --> 02:05:27,000
Scored one of the runs.

1900
02:05:27,000 --> 02:05:28,000
Here's Bob Gibson's pitch to him.

1901
02:05:28,000 --> 02:05:29,000
It's high.

1902
02:05:29,000 --> 02:05:34,000
Makes a count one ball and one strike.

1903
02:05:34,000 --> 02:05:38,000
Well, I certainly hope that you fans have enjoyed this world series.

1904
02:05:38,000 --> 02:05:41,000
We've enjoyed friendly until you.

1905
02:05:41,000 --> 02:05:45,000
Scott foul straight back.

1906
02:05:45,000 --> 02:05:51,000
One ball, two strikes on him.

1907
02:05:51,000 --> 02:05:59,000
Bob Gibson looking for his third win in the series.

1908
02:05:59,000 --> 02:06:01,000
The one and two pitch to Scott.

1909
02:06:01,000 --> 02:06:05,000
He struck him out and that's all for George Scott.

1910
02:06:05,000 --> 02:06:32,000
And that's all.
