The umpires, Joe Paparella at place, Johnny Rice at place, Al Smith at sixth, and Casey Stengel at sixth.
The battering for today's game for Washington, Witteshift and Batty, for New York, Curely and Howard. And the best batter is tomorrow, baseball and valentine beer.
The Trist Professor. A doubleheader tomorrow with the senators. First game starting at 1.30, the Decoration Day doubleheader.
Plenty of good feats available. Judge Dobbs and Pete Ramos will be pitching for the senators with Ralph Terry and Art Dittmar. They started for New York.
After a three-day trip to Baltimore, the Yankees return next weekend with the Boston Red Sox. Next Friday night, Saturday afternoon, and a doubleheader a week from today with the Red Sox.
Next Saturday afternoon will be a ladies' day. Then come the White Sox for four games in four days. Monday night, Tuesday afternoon, Wednesday night, Thursday afternoon, June 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th.
And then the Indians Friday night to 10th Saturday afternoon, the 11th, and a doubleheader on Sunday, June 12th to wind up the home fans.
Billy Gardner. Land from New London, Connecticut, hitting 300. 42 for 140. 300 on the season, but he went into the week and made 22nd, hitting it a 435 trip.
Billy Pick from Kelly is high, ball one. He had one out of three last night.
Shirley's delivery. Time inside for ball two. Shirley making his sixth appearance. He has a record of one and one. This is his third start.
Red Sox beating seven and one in his first appearance at Boston. Then he relieved three times, getting credit for one over Washington, and relieved May 13th.
Delivery, two-nothing delivery. That's outside for ball three. At Kansas City, he was relieved by Gaber, and the six-pinning had given up three runs.
And Gaber was credited with a win. Three balls both sides, and the pick. Then there's rain one.
And a three-top. Shirley's next pick is just outside for ball four, and Gardner walks.
Now coming to bat is Dan Bilbeck. Bilbeck batting 221. He's had four out of his last ten times at bat, however, which is a watered pace.
Shirley delivers, and Bilbeck takes high outside for a ball. One ball, no strikes.
Bob seems to be aiming that ball instead of flying it in there. Doesn't seem to be quite loose yet.
Now the delivery. That's a low one inside. Ball two. Two balls, no strikes.
And the dribble walks over to say something to Shirley.
Two balls, no strikes. Shirley now, after taking a little time, taking a few deep breaths, now into the stretch.
And there's Gardner leading away from first. The delivery. In there for a strike. Good one. Two balls, one strike.
And there's Clary coaching at third, Dan Neely at first. And the dribble is shortened up at third. Gardner leads away from first. And the pitch, the left-hand batter is way outside. Ball three, three and one. Three balls, one strike.
Now Joe Paparella is pointing to something. Not in the dugout, but I think.
Maybe worse for the dugout. Now he's throwing somebody out. Somebody's gotten a heave hole in the Washington dugout.
Somebody's got the finger. And we'll have to find out who it was a little later. Here's Ryden Paparella. Joe warned him and then, warned him and then ran him.
Three balls, one strike. Shirley to the stretch. And the pitch. And there's like two, both down. We'll have to check to find out who it was. You never did come out of the dugout.
Two balls, two strikes. We'll watch Billy Gardner leading away. Stretched by 30. That goes Gardner. The pitch is outside, ball four.
The guard now moves to second. Too long, nobody out. And here's Bob Allison hitting 320 on the season. Since May 22nd, he's at six for 25.
He got a three last night. Going into last night's game, he had been in the slump, getting into 182 phase one over the previous week.
And two arms. Bob Shirley's pitch is high for a ball. One ball, no strikes. Jim Lemon on deck and Armand Killeber to follow.
Bob Shirley fighting for control here in the first inning. One nothing, one guard. The high-cut foul may fade out of place over here.
The senator dugout and is out of play. Dropping in behind, they dugout a couple of rows. The one-one count.
The president was a man thrown out of the game. The senator's got president from Cleveland, and Indians have got him from Cincinnati.
One ball, one strike. Gardner leading away from second. Go back from first, nobody out. Bob Shirley to the sixth.
The pitch is funded and it's fouled to the right of the play. Strike two, one and two.
The Panthers were not playing for a punt, and Allison dropped them up for the punt down the first baseline. One, two counts.
The Panthers lead off second, go back off first. Here's the pitch. Curve is outside, count is two-two.
Shirley has always had a problem in coordination. Certain days, he gets himself coordinated. He's pretty good.
Two balls, two strikes. The Panthers lead away from first and second, nobody out. And the pitch to Allison.
Allison may have a 12-strike three. Got the inside corner. Allison hadn't left the plate yet, but now he moved away. Now here's Jim Lemon.
One-sided end. Side for the league lead in Homers and second in the league in RBI. Jim had one out of three last night.
Went into the game last night with a week's average of 261, the pitch for 23. Gardner leading off second, go back off first.
The right-hand batter, swung on and missed strike one, nothing in one.
No balls, one strike. Carmen Tilliboo on bet. Shirley taking his time. Dives into the stretch. Gardner again leading away from second, go back from first.
Shirley fires away. Curve ball low outside. The count is one and one. One ball, one strike.
The Jays a little short left. The Jays will be driving the line. Shirley again to the stretch. Gardner leading away from first and second. And the pitch.
Swung on and fouled off right at the plate. Strike two, one and two. One ball, two strikes.
One and two counts. Shirley goes to the bottom bag.
Jim Lemon steps out of the batter's box for a moment. Back in now. Dives in. Deep well spread. Then sneezes, leans over from the waste. The runner's leading away from first and second.
Bob Curley steps off the rubber and the runners move back. Bob Curley is back on into the stretch. Gardner moving off second, go back off first.
Jim Lemon, curve low outside. Ball two, two-two. Two balls, two strikes.
Sam Neely, watching Schauer in the swing behind Gobeck.
Dallas Curley, watching Richardson and Gobeck for Gardner leading away from second. Now the stretch and the two-two pitch is swung on to high top foul. They fade out of play and it will behind the Yankees, I got.
Down to remain two-two.
John Howard is going over. Doubleheader tomorrow, first game at one-thirty. Sunday doubleheaders, the court's started two.
Fifty minutes past two. Two balls, two strikes on Jim Lemon.
Gardner and Gobeck leading away from second and first respectively. Curley ready and the pitch to Lemon, one-off foul back above it.
Down to remain two-two.
Curley walks out in front of the rubber now. Tomorrow's at the third.
Gobeck and Gardner, both at room walk, leading away from second and first. One-out, the two-two count on Jim.
Bob Curley delivers, the curve is in there for call, strike three.
And Lemon didn't like to call. Two down now and here's Harmon Gillibrew. Gillibrew sideline earlier this season with a cold leg mucket.
In his twenty-first game, batting two-fifty-seven, he's had six out of his last twenty-seven. Smacked the double here last night, a long drive to left. Great power.
Gardner and Gobeck leading away now from second and first. Bob Curley getting ready to pitch to Gillibrew.
And they're playing him straight away. Bob into the stretch and the pitch. Fastball's rung on him, missed, strike one.
He can whip that bat.
Again the stretch by Curley. Gardner leading away from second, Gobeck from first. Here's the pitch, it's a curve and stays inside, one-and-one.
Julio Beck there on deck.
Gillibrew steps out of the batter's box for two seconds, drives back in to hitting the station.
Another stretch, the runners lead away from first and second. And the pitch, fastball's rung on him, missed, strike two, one and two.
And he's got that one in there. One ball, two strikes.
And he's off second, Gobeck off first, the stretch by Curley. Here's the pitch, curveball high in the county, two-two.
And fastball two strikes, two outs.
And the runners lead away from first and second. Here's the pitch and Gillibrew takes it high for ball three, full count.
Gardner and Gobeck, they'll be off and running with the pitch. Three balls, two strikes.
The stretch by Curley, Gardner and Gobeck ready to go. There they go and the pitch is low for ball four and the bases are loaded.
And he's lost him after being ahead of him. So three men are aboard and here's Julio Becker, riding 250 on the station.
He was in the last night's game with a week average of 280 and he's had eight for his last 29. Left hand batter up with three men aboard.
And he's one lead away, the pitch to Becker. Hung on, lined out to left, curve coming fast and catches it for the off and the side three-side.
Julio Becker, lined up to curve and left field. No runs, no hits, no errors and three men left on.
So the first half of the first inning, Washington nothing and New York coming to back.
And he's lost him after being ahead of him. So three men are aboard and here's Julio Becker, riding 250 on the station.
And he's lost him after being ahead of him. So the last half of the first inning,
Quebec's Mantle and Marist coming up, Hal Woodegic, a left-hander, making his fourth appearance of the season as a record of one win, no losses.
This is his first start. He released three times against Boston and once against Boston, fights against Cleveland.
He's credited with a win over Cleveland May 4th in relief. He went four and two-thirds innings and gave us one run.
He's a 6'3", 195-pound left-hander, 27 years old, seemed to be 28.
He started out the majors with the Tigers. He was with them in 1966 briefly and eventually went to Cleveland.
He went into 1958 and 14 games, he won six and lost six. And he went to Washington and the last year.
Six to two Becker's inside. He was with Toronto most of last year, won three and lost one.
I'll take you probably to the Toronto briefly last year, won three and lost one.
He went to one game for Washington, won two and lost four. He's right in relief. The pitch is in there for sight.
He's just up a third. The pitch to Tony, swung on, hit by Killiboo, down the left of your line for May 6th. Tony tried to go for two, here's Lemmon's throw and Kubeck is out of second. Lemmon's the gardener.
Kubeck out trying to set his finger into a double. Lemmon's the gardener. Kubeck with Killiboo drawn in, hit a hard shot down the line past Killiboo, but was out trying to go for two. Lemmon's the gardener.
Kubeck was hitting three on nine on the season and has been hitting much better of late. Went into the past week with a weekly average of 385.
Make your mantle right now, let's get inside. Mantle batting 231. Woodishick's pitch, swung on, hit into the right field and it's in there for day six.
Allison's out in the back end to the gardener. Mantle flies as a single to right. Kubeck, who was out trying to stretch his finger into a double, has gotten ten May 5th leading off in the ballgame and the 24 games in which he has batted in the leadoff position.
He's going to walk twice leading off in the ballgame.
Roger Maris makes the strike. Maris hitting 318 for the season.
Two to six hits in his last six minute batch. The pitch is swung on, hit foul down the left field line out of play. In the upper deck, two strikes, nothing and two.
The way from first went out. The next pitch, Kubeck, leaps outside. One, two, down.
Maris is re-legating Maris toward left and center and left, almost literally right. They don't figure Maris to pull him. Kubeck is swung on and missed strike three. Maris strikes out. Now Ilson Howard coming up batting 260.
From May 7th through the 23rd, Howard hits at a 385 pace, five to 13. During his last week in three games, he has two breaks, 250 average.
Two men out now, man alone first, no score, first inning. Four to six, pitch swung on, fouled off out of play. The drive of the plate hits the upper deck, rebound to the playing field.
Baltimore leading Boston, one to nothing down to the first inning. First game for doubleheader in Pittsburgh leads Philadelphia, two to nothing down to the first inning. Now the pitch, outside, ball one, one and one.
The man will bluff to delay the field of seconds. One ball, one strike. Woodie kick into the pitch, man over the short lead, the pitch is fouled off as Howard hits the pitch.
Now it's curved right in on the handles.
There goes Mickey in the ball, he's fouled on, hits through the hole between third and short to left field. Man will turn second, head to third and goes on in. So goes to second base. Man will break into second, fold the short stop over and Howard hits right through the hole.
Now Bob Scherr comes up, runners on first and third, two outs. Scherr batting 279 on the season.
The week of May 17 through 23, he hit at a 412 pace, 7 for 17. Batting 270 on the season. He's only had three hits during the half week.
The second inning, we've seen that bat. The pitch, outside, ball one. One ball, no strikes, two outs, man will lead off third, Howard off first, the pitch preserved, isn't there for a strike?
I'd like to replay an inning and say if this hadn't happened, if that hadn't happened. Actually Kubek hadn't tried to go to second, the inning might have been over.
The pitch, one arm, fell off to the right of the plate. The reason is if Kubek stayed on first, he might have even gone to third on man will single the right, but the Maritz ranking out one out, Howard's ball would have been a double play ball the way they would have played.
The second inning, perfect handling. Here's the pitch, low outside, two-two count. Sometimes it works around the other way, you know.
Two balls, two strikes, two outs. You can never figure those things though because you pitch differently in different situations.
The ball is leading away from first and third. The two-two pick, swung on, hit foul, out of play in the lower stands behind the Yankee dugout.
The end of the pitch, swung on, bounced to short. A big hopper of foul play slipped the gardener, forcing Howard.
The guys retired, both teams threatened in the first inning and failed to score. No runs for New York, three hits. No errors for the Senators and two Yankees left on.
At the end of an inning, Washington nothing, New York nothing.
Baltimore leading Boston one to nothing, 10 of an inning and a half. Barber and Sullivan are playing a double header. Cleveland is Detroit in the first game.
It will be Hawkins against Mosse. Chicago, Kansas City in the latest start playing one game.
Pittsburgh leading Philadelphia two to nothing, 10 of an inning and a half. Law against Roberts.
Maserati has just homewarded Pittsburgh in the last second to make it at least three-nothing.
Milwaukee, Cincinnati will find Willie picking against Cook. San Francisco at St. Louis. Jones against Jackson.
Los Angeles at Chicago, Padres against Cardwell.
Double header tomorrow, game time 1.30. Hope it should be on hand, plenty of seats available.
It will be Sobs and Ramos against Perry and Dittmar. Right now we pause for station identification.
You are tuned to 1460 on the radio dial. This is WOKO, Albany, New York. Time on the WOKO clock is 29 minutes before 3. The current temperature is 73 degrees.
In the first half of the second inning, it will be the bottom third of the Washington order, Earl Batty, Jose Valdez Del Sol and Hal Woodichick.
Bob Curley walked the bases loaded in the first inning. Struck out there and got the last man on the line drive to left.
Le Pick to Batty. Misses 4-1, a little outside. Batty hitting 225.
Now the Pick, swung on and missed, strike one, 1-1.
Red Cross are here next Friday night, Saturday afternoon, and double header are away from the day.
The 1-1 Pick, fastball high on the count of 2-1.
The ball blinks forward, swings to his lineup and the Pick, swung on, pops out out of play to the right of the plate and to the lower stand.
And the fellow stood up on the seat and reached for the ball. That's a dangerous thing to do. You start to lean with it and yes.
And the ball is flying up face to face with the concrete.
The 2-2 Pick, one off, a fly ball into short left center. Here's Maddow coming on back and makes the catch.
Actually he went all the way in behind Kubeck and in front of Serves.
It seemed a long way to get it, Bob didn't quite make it.
And here's Kubeck.
And here's Jose Valdez-Bielso, V-A-L-B-I-V-I-E-L-S-O, whose father years ago played some football at Boston University.
From McManders-Kubeck.
Right hand hitter. Early Pick looked out, rail time inside, ball one.
Has been organized ball since 1953, this would make the seventh year.
He sure has moved a lot.
Early next Pick, one on, hit, drop, pretty short, one hop, Kubeck to his right, grab it, throw it to first, and they're two away.
While Woodishick is coming up with Kubeck, Valdez-Bielso now in seven seasons, and remember this, obviously in certain years he played with different clubs.
He played with Lubbock in 1953. In 1954 he was with Charlotte, Rock Hill, and Lubbock.
In 1955 he was with Charlotte and Washington. In 1956 he was with Washington and Louisville.
In 1957 Indianapolis. In 1958 Phoenix and Minneapolis. In 1959 Washington and Miami.
Woodishick, that's right handed, takes the pick inside for a ball.
He's always been a very slick, grump man, but never was able to hit well enough to really stay in the majors.
This might pick up in that regard. Here's the pick, then first strike.
One ball, one strike.
Al Woodishick.
Woodishick's in where the fastball's going on in this strike two. Woodishick's wound up with the bat that time to swing.
Hard thing to do against a fastball. He's got winding up on a fastball.
You're in trouble. You better hold that bat at the ready.
Pick's fastball outside in the count of two-two.
We're in the second inning and a little kid might say, Washington ain't got nothing and the Ashes ain't got nothing.
Sometimes the big kids say this.
Hit-two delivery. Swung on and missed. Strike three and the side's retired.
Washington still ain't got nothing and the Ashes ain't got nothing.
No runs, no hits, no errors, no one left on. At the end of an inning and a half, Washington, as I said, ain't got nothing and the Ashes ain't got nothing.
I tell you when you will have something, and that is when you enjoy the crisp of fresh, your Valentine beer. A beer that's truly light, smooth, and delicious as a beer can be.
Valentine beer and the crisp of fresh beer is truly light. If there's more to it than that, Valentine adds something to its lightness.
Flavor. Man, no sense of having lightness and that flavor.
Valentine beer is a light beer with true lager flavor. That means that there's light as you like it, but it still delivers all the downright delicious lager beer flavor you want.
And that's what makes it the crisp of fresh beer. So treat yourself to some smooth, delicious Valentine.
The largest selling beer in the East from Maine to Florida. It's a treat that when you have it, you know you've got something.
Now the last half of the second inning. Bill Sharratt hitting sixth in the order. Leads off McGoogle and Richardson to follow.
Moose down to 279. From May 17 through the 23rd, he hit it at 120, paid three for 25. And since last Tuesday, he's only had three hits.
19 times at bat. He takes a strike. The one strike delivery. Head's in there. Strike two. Nothing in two.
No ball, three strikes. And the three strike pitch. Head's inside for a ball, one and two.
And the delivery. Fouled off over to Yankee dugout. Moose is taking the pitch and the ball hits the handle of the bat.
The good possibility that in the next couple of days or so, in case he gets back, he may rest mantle and shower.
Mickey's knee is still terribly sore. The pitch swung on grounded to third. Killiboo up with it. Goes on to first in time.
And Mickey is going to have been in a bad slump. Off in his timing. He can't get leverage. Moose is just swinging off in his timing and pressing.
Now, Gil McGoogle hitting 259 on the tee. What for the week of May 17 through the 23rd? He hit it at a 3.48 pace and has had five hits in his last four games.
The curveball, the last strike, ball one. The one nothing pitch. The curve is in there for a strike one and one.
The one-one delivery. Swung on. Has a high fly ball down the right field line. Curving foul and out of play.
A one-two count. Hal Woodishick, who's a big fellow, 6'3", 195. Has the ball and really moves.
The one-two pitch to McGoogle. Change up. Two ball outside. Two-two.
Two strikes. Now the delivery. Outside for ball three, three and two.
Bobby Richardson on deck. And you get a lot of room in left center. Lemon straightaway left. Bill Backstader the right center.
And the playoff pitch is inside. Ball swept in on him. McGoogle walks.
Now the flick-feeling Bobby Richardson hitting 235 on the trees.
The week of May 17 through 23, he hit 318, 7-22. He had three base hits and ten times his bat for the first three days last week. Nothing for six in the last two ball games.
Went out and McGoogle on first. Now the pitch. One-on-one drive to third. Killaboo up there nicely.
And he throws the second for one back on the first two lakes. Killaboo. Grabbed that ball right on the line.
Forcing McGoogle to strike it. Gardner throw the first. Nowhere near in time to get Ricky.
Bob Curley gets to come up in the inning. He's had two for five this season batting 400. No score. It's the last for the second.
Outfield, relatively shallow. Shaded toward right center and right straightaway left. Woodichick.
And it's two innings to play. No score with the Yankees owning the only three hits in the game all in the first inning. Two back outs, stretching a single into a double, trying to.
So the hits were wasted and the Senators wasted three bases on balls in the first inning.
A double header tomorrow with the Washington Senators starts at 1.30. Johnson-Ramos against Perry and Bittmar.
And the Yankees are here next weekend with the Boston Red Sox. Next Friday night, a ladies' day Saturday afternoon and a double header next Sunday.
Baltimore leads Boston 1-0, 10-3 innings. Cleveland nothing. Detroit batting in the first inning.
In the National League, Pittsburgh 6, Philadelphia nothing. 10-2.5 innings. Milwaukee 2, Cincinnati batting in the first inning. Eddie Matthews at his 10th homer.
San Francisco nothing. St. Louis batting in the first inning. It's the first of the third and the first man up in the batting order.
Lead off man Billy Gardner. Bill Beck on Beck and Allison DeFauw. Gardner to a pass in the first inning.
Bob Turley making his sixth appearance and third guard of the year delivers a fastball line over third.
Down the left field line, Chippie and Ather extra bases. Turley plays the rebound. Gardner turns first and eases into second with a standup double.
The first base hits for Washington at extra bases. Billy Gardner's eighth two-bagger.
Gardner on second, nobody out. And Dan Dobeck up. Allison DeFauw. Turley who had some arm trouble earlier in the year has not gone past five in the third innings.
Turley to the stretch. Gardner leading away from second. The pitch to the left hand batter. Curve ball high. Ball one.
Downfield toward right, center and right. Straight away left. Dobeck trying to hold Gardner close. Turley delivers to Dobeck who swings and fouls it back upstairs. Strike one, line one.
There's a large group of youngsters here today. I don't mean in one single group, you know, like the Yankee Juniors. I mean the youngsters brought to the game by their parents, boys and girls alike.
The one-one pitch. Swung on, hit, foul, down the left B-line. How to play, fly ball. One-two count on Dan Dobeck.
Billy Gardner with a good lead off second. Now the one-two pitch and Dobeck swings and hits a fly ball to the left. Turve backing up on it. Gardner at second to tag the catch. He starts the third and holds up.
The throw goes right into Gill. Small player will draw a throw when he can. It'll be that one time, you know, then the percentage is where the goal will bounce by somebody. It'll be a wild throw and change the situation around.
You're always hoping for it, so you draw the throw even though you have no intention of actually going over unless it is a bad throw.
Here's Bob Allison who looks at a third strike in the first inning. Jim Lemon the follow.
More hitting right hand batter. Curly delivers and Allison looks at a curve. It's in there. Strike one. Nothing in one.
One strike pitch. Another curve. He's swung on, hits in the air to deep center. Mantle now getting under it. Ball fades a little. He makes the catch and Gardner holds the second.
The wind has several different directions. Looking at the right field, the flags are blowing out that way. Looking at left field, they're blowing out that way. Looking at center field and the whole glory is sort of blowing straight in.
Two outs and the batter is Jim Lemon with Harmon Kilibur on deck.
Jim Lemon looks at a third strike in the first inning. Big Jim. Six foot fire, right hand batter. Awaits the pitch. Curly delivers it. High ball one.
A little bit of a damped curve. Didn't break much. No score. First to the third. Billy Gardner on second base. Two down. Jim Lemon.
Crouches. Bob Curly ready. Now the pitch. Fast ball, swung on and fouled back to the screen. Strike one. One in one.
Jim Lemon, there is six-five. Crouches a bit. And now when he swings, he's raising up. Gets good lifts on the ball and he connects.
That pitch was almost in his alley. One ball, one strike. Curly again to the stretch. Gardner moves off second.
Bob's delivery. Curve is swung on. It's a high pop-up that Bobby Richardson gets under it. Waiting and makes the catch and the side's retired.
No runs, one hit, no errors, one left on. Gardner open with a double and a stranded. End of two and a half innings. Washington nothing, New York nothing.
Nice to meet you, nice to meet you. Please don't go too late, please don't go too late. Please, please, please, please, please.
Too deep, please. A bit of a two-eyed to be white. We're too low to see this, too white to be golden.
Now we're going in. This one, please. This one, please. That's one that we can't see in. Hey, it's golden. Hey, it's not a mountain.
It's the last half of the third inning at Yankee Stadium. And it'll be the top of the New York order. Tony Kubek, Mickey Mantle, and Roger Marich.
Kubek opened the game with a single, but was out trying to stretch it into a double.
Mantle followed with a single, and Howard had a single, but the Yankees did not score.
Left-hander Hal Woodishick, ready to pitch.
Harmon Killiboo shortened up at third the way he was in the first inning, and Kubek rode the ball by.
A pitch is in there for a strike. Nothing and one.
Big left-hander again, deliberate. Sidearm fastball inside. It counts one and one.
One ball, one strike.
And the one-one pitch. Low outside, ball two, two and one.
Little batty called out to Lamond Woodishick wants to chat with him.
Two balls, one strike.
And the next pitch, ball three, little high, three and one.
And the three-one pitch, low outside to ball four, Kubek walks.
That's the second pass pictured by Woodishick.
Mickey Mantle steps in.
Rod DiMera on deck.
Mantle batting right-handed against Woodishick.
Left-hander pitch, swung on, missed, strike one, nothing and one.
Mickey has a look at Presetti.
Woodishick to the stretch and the pitch. Low, ball one, one and one.
One ball, one strike.
Left-hander again to the stretch and the pitch. Ball two, little bit outside, two and one.
Now batty runs out and talks to Woodishick.
Two-one count on Mickey Mantle. No score, it's the last of the third.
Mickey steps out now, so honored to him.
Two balls, one strike. Mantle back in, Woodishick to the stretch, Kubek with the lead, the pitch.
Swung on, it's a high foul off to the left of the plate and out of play.
A two-two count.
Two balls, two strikes.
Left-hander, Halloway to Shick, into the stretch. Kubek with a short lead off first.
The pitch and Mantle takes it low inside, ball three, three and two.
A full count.
Again the stretch by the left-hander, Kubek with the lead, the pitch. Swung on, grounded foul down the third base line.
Three balls, two strikes. Woodishick to the stretch, Kubek with the lead. Throw to first and Tony's back.
Again we're set to go, the stretch, Kubek with the lead, the three-two pitch.
Swung on, it missed like three, the throw down is into center field and Kubek with the start of back to first, stops and goes on to second.
Batty fired the ball to the bag, nobody was there, Gardner couldn't quite get over. Kubek was trapped, he was running.
Stopped halfway between first and second. Gardner go back to first and then turned back around and went on.
Kubek advances to second as Mantle strikes out.
And here's Roger Maris.
Second strike out for Woodishick, Maris struck out in the first inning.
The pitch, Roger takes the curve inside for a ball. The arrow on the play is given to Gardner for not covering in time.
Here's the pitch, swung on, foul back out of play. A one-one count on Maris.
Now Woodishick delivers, Rod swings and misses, strike two, one and two.
Maris is swinging a lot at the motion of Woodishick.
Eddie Lopat used to be great for that. He's swinging his motion.
He changes speeds off of the motion. Here's Bay pitch, swung on and missed, strike three.
Maris strikes out for the second time.
Now here's Elkston Howard, who's single the left in the first inning.
No score, last of the third.
Woodishick wants to talk to Batty. Howard had five for 13 the week of May 17 through 23 for a 385 average.
That's two out of eight, or three out of nine during his first time up today during his last game this past week.
Woodishick ready, delivers to Howard, swings and bounces it to third. Gillibrew throws on over to first ten times and that retires the side.
No runs, no hits, no errors, and one error, I'm sorry, on the play of the second. One left on.
At the end of three innings, Washington no runs, one hit, one error.
And four left on. New York no runs, three hits, no errors, and four men left on base.
This is a perfect time for Valentine, so how about pouring yourself a tall, foaming glass full and enjoy the light beer with true lager flavor.
Valentine beer, the Chris for pressure. On the Valentine school board, Baltimore leads Boston 1-0 into four, Sullivan against Barber, Detroit leads Cleveland 1-0 into one,
Mosse and Hawkins, Chicago, Kansas City later. Nationally, Pittsburgh six, Philadelphia nothing into three, law against Roberts, Chris Shorten in early from the second,
Masurovsky at a homer, Milwaukee two, Cincinnati nothing into an inning and a half, Willie and Hook, Matthews at a homer one on, Giants Cards scoreless into an inning and a half, Jones and Jackson, Dodgers Cubs scoreless into an inning and a half,
Podgerson and Cardwell. The next voice you'll hear to carry on with you will be that of Phil Vizzuto after we pause for station identification.
You are tuned to 1460 on the radio dial, WOKO Albany-Negort, 73 degrees at two and one half minutes after the hour three in the WOKO clock.
Ready to go in the top of the fourth inning, scoreless ball game, the Yankees and the Senators. Leading off to Washington, Harmon Killibro, first pitch to Harmon inside ball one,
rushed them back, Killibro walked in the first inning. On deck is Julio Becker. Fairly's next pitch is iron side ball two, two and nothing to count.
Killibro trying to get back in the groove after missing quite a few games because of a pulled muscle in his leg. Swings and fouls the pitch completely out of Yankee stadium.
That's one of the highest fouls I've ever seen. One that a high pitch and got underneath it. He sort of uppercuts out of ball when he swings.
One reason he strikes out so often but another reason why he gets such high powering drives when he does hit them. Do them one to count.
Nobody out, nobody on, the top of the fourth. Hit him right in the back. Hit Killibro right in the back. Arm in his arm, hit by a pitch ball.
And here's Julio Becker who lined out the left field in the first inning with the bases loaded. Bob Serve making a nice running play to end the bottom of the first inning.
Fairly has now walked three, all of them in the first inning and hit one mad. He has given up one base hit. That would double a Gardner in the third inning.
Garland holds first against Killibro. Here's the stretch. The pitch is a curve on the outside corner for a called strike.
Fairly set. Slow curve hit on the ground at second. Richardson, the two back for one. Back to first, double play.
Well the Yankees there, 37th double play of the year. Last night three double plays by the Yankee infield. Took Jim Coates out of a jam each time.
And Kubek and Richardson have been teaming up real well all year. Both two out here, Earl Batty who fly to center field his first time up. Takes the pitch in there, strike calls.
Batty got off to a real good start in the early part of the year. He's down to 225 now. One strike, but slow curve. A little bit high ball on one-on-one.
Two out, nobody on. Fastball is a strike called. One ball, two strikes, two outs.
Another short windup. Slow curve line to center field, a base hit. Batty timed that one perfectly. Just waited for the ball to break. A line single to center field.
That's the second hit off Fairly. And it brings up Jose Valdezioso who bounced out to the shortstop in the second inning.
Jose changed his stance last winter and hit better than he's ever hit any previous year. So he's getting another shot at the shortstop position on the Washington club.
He's been up and down quite often. That's by Fairly. The pitch is low ball one. There's never been any question about Valdezioso's fielding ability. It's always been his batting that has held him back.
Here's the stretch. Pitch low outside ball two, two and nothing.
No score in the top of the fourth inning. Batty at first, Gollum playing in back of the runner. Here's the stretch. Pitch is a strike called. Fastball just below the letters.
Not a bad crowd here today. See the second game of a four game series. Big doubleheader tomorrow. Same two clubs starting at 1.30 p.m.
Here's a two one pitch. A foul. Well, well, well. I got a foul ball. How do you like that?
Two of the top. Get away from Sam Neely. Two balls, two strikes and two outs.
The pitch is a curve a little bit high. Ball three. Three balls, two strikes, two outs.
The pitch is a curve. Batty leading off first base. The pitch is pitch to Centipel Mantle going back under it now and makes the catch.
Ball was hit well. And for Washington in the top of the fourth inning, no runs on one base pitch. No Yankees.
One man left to score at the end of three and a half innings. Washington nothing and the Yankees nothing. Say, do you ever see a game with just one team, a baseball game that is?
Well, of course not. Naturally takes two teams to play a game. And it's the same with beer. Lightness is fine, but that's just half of it.
To really refresh, a beer must have lightness plus flavor. And that's where the crisp refresher, Ballantine beer, comes in. It proves to more people every day that a beer can be light and still give you all the honest to goodness lager beer flavor you want.
Yes sir, Ballantine is a light beer with two lager flavors. That satisfying combination of lightness and flavor makes Ballantine the crisp refresher. So if lightness alone will do for you, and if you want a beer with flavor too, then mister, just make the good old three ring sign and ask the man for Ballantine.
Enjoy the crisp refresher, the lager-selling beer in the East from Maine to Florida.
Ready to go here in the bottom of the fourth inning. Bob Sears will bounce into a fourth flight and the first inning will be the batter.
On deck is Bill Scaran and Gil McGoogle will follow. Here's Hal Woodish's first pitch, it's outside for one.
The one nothing pitch is hit deep to left field and serving foul to the left of the foul ball, there's still got a hole of an inside curve ball.
The one one pitch is hit deep to left field again, even deeper but in the upper deck. And foul again but missed, served out of round on two curve balls.
One ball, two strikes. This is strike three swinging. Third strike out and that's the fourth strike out of the ball game.
Four strikeouts for Hal Woodish and here's Bill Scaran. Scaran bounced to the third baseman in the second inning.
Here's a moose who's hit on the ground in the second baseman, Billy Gardner up on two hops over the back there, that's two outs. Moose went after the first pitch and bounced out to the second baseman. Here's Gil McGoogle who walked in the second inning.
Last night the young left-hander Jim Cot was picking real fine baseball for Washington and then after Maddell Holman he developed a wild streak.
Walked three, hit two, gave up a triple to McGoogle. That's the youngster that's going to do real well. There's a foul down the left field line out of play.
I was talking with Hal Oliver the other day and he said that Cot as a kid that can't miss is very impressed with his easy motion and delivery.
One strike on McGoogle. Fastball low outside, ball one, one-on-one.
One pitch is hit on the ground to third, Harmon Killibill up with the ball. Over to Beck there for the outs.
And that's the first time the Yankees have been three-side, one-two-three in the ball game. Nothing across in the bottom of the fourth inning.
And the score at the end of fourth inning, the Yankees have no runs on three hits and no errors. Washington no runs, two hits and one error.
And now we're going to go again with the rest of this afternoon's ball game brought to you by the Atlantic Refining Company and your neighborhood Atlantic dealer, the folks who help keep your car on the go.
Atlantic keeps your car on the go. Well there's never a bad day in any kind of weather. Atlantic keeps your car on the go. When you want to go play stairs and do things, what a pleasure you're driving, Auntie.
You've got up and up and up and down and you're Atlantic. Atlantic keeps your car on the go, go, go, go. Keep on the go with Atlantic.
So the baseball game is taking on very much the same pattern as last night. Hope ball club, scoreless here at the end of four innings.
Now Woodchick has battled the Yankees and Bob Turley after a rocky beginning has kept the Washington ball club at bay.
Moving now into the top of the fifth inning.
Woodchick comes to the plate to lead off.
Turley, at the end of the windup of the first pitch, swung on a slow other foul of the third base line.
Now it's Clary, steals the ball and throws the line back into the game. Clary coaching a third base for Washington and Sam Neely at first.
Lily Gardner is on deck.
Washington has two hits, the Yankees have picked up three. The pitch swung on, hit sharply on the ground, a short stop.
Kubek up with it cleanly, goes to first base in time and there's one away.
And Barbara is on hand to carry on the play-by-play for you. So let's show the red is Lily Gardner, steps to the plate.
Lily has one of the two bases. Red.
Right hand hit him, counting slightly above 300 right now.
Washington's doing a very good job for Washington since they got him from Baltimore.
Takes a curve for a strike.
He has the most hits on the ball club, 43.
Allison is next to 39.
Change of base line, and one and one.
Baltimore felt that they were able to train him for a catch at Courtney with the emergence of their fine rookie second baseman, Mark Weedy.
Nice ball is high, ball two, two and one.
Bill Paparella back of the plate.
John Wright to first, Al Smith who is freshman on fire, is second, and Ed Runge over 30.
Paparella is the senior man of this group.
A hot line foul down the outside third base.
Two balls, two strikes.
Shirley, picking in a deliberate tempo.
Using a slight topping deliver.
The curve ball that is hit high out the left field is an easy catch for third.
The ball is high, out the right field, out the left field.
The ball is high, out the right field, out the right field.
Out the right field, out the right field, out the right field.
The line just went up on the Yankee big board out there, back of the right kind of field.
Change of bases outside, ball one.
Paparella for a couple years, you know, used a no windup which he got from Lawson.
I know that Bob feels that he's more relaxed by using some sort of a windup.
His pitching coach, Eddie Lopat, feels the same way.
But they don't want him to use a full windup because they wish nothing to get in the front of his eyes on his target.
When he used to use a full windup before he went to the no windup,
a full windup used to jerk his head to a foot-second off the plate and cover that as his wilding.
Two-nothing pitch, pass ball high inside, ball free.
Two out, nobody on.
Bob walks in the first inning and then set it down.
He's in a hole, three and all.
They thought it delivered, over.
Three and one.
Here's the sign, block, field, high outside, ball four.
First man he walks in the first inning and the fourth man he walks in the game.
Now let's get Bob Allison out, right hand hitting right fielder, who was the American big rookie of last year.
The big fellow that they signed up at campus of the University of Kansas.
Not too shaded around toward left.
There's a high foul that has hit down the left field line and into the sand.
That's like one.
Allison has been studying by going back in the winter and doing some more college work at campus, but he hasn't been yet.
On Dittmar the Yankees, he takes a winter term every year.
He's on his way toward his degree.
Dittmar is attending American International College Springfield.
He's serving high outside, ball one.
Ball is in the play.
I'd rather approach, better to go on anything.
Nothing going.
Fairly, come set, back to the runner, to the head bob.
But to serve in first place.
The only move that a pitcher can make when he is in position with a man on his first play, that is a move I'm not sick, is the head motion.
We had two balls out here and the second game was Baltimore.
One was called on Dittmar because he twisted his shoulder, which is a move to decoy the runner.
And the other ball was called on Wilhelm because he bent a knee.
Big right hand approach to first.
Fairly, set.
The runner goes, and the first down to second base, and he's out.
Howard to a wicket, an attempted steal by Belvedere.
Howard made quite a throw because that was a change of pace to tell you through.
He went down on the ideal pitch.
But Howard has a great arm and he showed it right there because he was throwing at a disembarrassed.
When he left the ball to go, I thought that the runner was going to make two.
Nothing across and the four and a half minutes was watching the nothing and New York nothing.
You know, sometimes the way your car performs can be downright embarrassing,
especially if it's been stalling frequently or idling rough.
Possibly doesn't have to get up and go, you're accustomed to.
When you're troubled, you know, it could be a dirty carburetor, a condition that can affect any car, old or new.
Now here's how it happens.
Exhaust fumes and minus particles of dirt can get by your air cleaner and build up deposits inside along the lower carburetor wall.
Even a small amount of these deposits can cause the throttle plate to feed the wrong mixture of air and gasoline to your engine.
You get rough performance and actual gasoline waste.
But a dirty carburetor is one embarrassment you can forget about if you use new Atlantic Imperial gasoline.
You see, Atlantic Imperial actually goes to work cleaning up the deposits in your carburetor as you drive.
What more it keeps your carburetor clean. What more pleasure back into driving.
So to end stalling, rough idling, and gasoline waste, due to a dirty carburetor, use Atlantic Imperial,
the gasoline that cleans your carburetor and keeps it clean.
To the bottom of the fifth inning, Bobby Richardson leading off with the Yankees. Then Bob Turley and Tony Kluvec.
Bobby Hitler's in one fifth of the place.
How would he kick? Picking up the sign from Earl Batty. The wind up in the first pitch. Fastball is outside ball one.
The next delivery is over the inside corner for a called strike one and one. Kluvec, the third baseman, is out of the outdoor.
Second base Billy Garthead, first base Billy O'Baccar.
One one one one delivery. Flung on, hit foul on one half.
One ball, two strikes out. Bobby Richardson leading off with the Yankees fifth of the Scarlet ball game.
Two more tomorrow. First game will be a one-thirty start, which is a change from the usual two o'clock start.
We get the Sunday doubleheaders, the best of law, on Sunday and it does not apply on holidays.
One ball, two strikes. The left hander is one two-bit. Flung on, a little pop-up.
And makes the cut. One away. Red.
Now we have Yankee pitcher Bob Turley.
Walking up to the plate.
The Red Sox come in here this next weekend, friends. Friday night, Saturday and the doubleheaders Sunday.
They come along Monday night, June 6th.
They're waking them on, I-2's afternoon. Then Wednesday night, the 8th. Thursday afternoon.
Two night games with the White Sox, the 6th and the 8th of June.
Shirley takes a pitch inside.
The Cleveland series starts with night game Friday, June 10th. Late as day on Saturday the 11th and a Sunday doubleheader the 12th.
That's two weeks from today.
No storm. Shirley takes a strike and it's one and one.
Swings as a ground ball, softly back to the mar. The pitcher goes over the first and Shirley is out.
Two down, last to the fifth. And the last Yankee to get on, two back.
For the baseline balls in the third inning.
Now up. Shirley has a single on the wall.
Woodiceck looks to no run. The ground ball hits the first base from Becquiao who crosses to the fifth to cover.
And the Yankees go down in order. Woodiceck has retired now, the last nine.
Total's at the end of five. Washington no runs, two hits, one error. New York no runs, three hits, no errors.
And before some other matters we will pause for state identification.
14-15 on the way to Udall, WOKO, Alderney.
Hector Lopez goes after I.T.O. replacing Roger Maris.
Twenty minutes before the game started just as the Senators were concluding their batting of their infield and outfield,
a loose bungled back. Looked Maris on the back of his left leg.
And he started the ball game, but I would have to hazard the opinion with Lopez going after now that the area has gotten sore and the leg must be stiff.
But we will get in the picture of the word on that.
Bob Cuppert who is back after being father of the bride yesterday on the PIA is talking about where to get tickets for the big game coming up in the next few weeks.
And you can get them at the Yankee Stadium every day of the season at the Yankees Midtown office in the Mesonino Grand Central Terminal.
You can stop in at any one of the 12 convenient located weapon house on our clothing stores in the Greater New York area or as an order by mail.
And if by mail just send your name and address along with your check of money order to ticket manager Yankee Stadium, Bronx 51, New York.
That seat still places $3.58. You can reserve seats at $2.50 if you'd like to be included.
And please add $0.25 to your total order for mailing charges. Your tickets will be sent back to your prompt.
All right, North 4 and Charlie now is going to take on Watson here in the 6th inning.
Allison, Lemon and Pillebro over the big bat.
And Allison hits the first pitch to pump by the short left field.
Serve comes charging in, charging in and gets there for the up.
And it went away.
Jim Lemon is over 2.
Pitches a third strike, pops a second.
All these hitters here for Washington in the 6th inning, if they get their pitch, can hit it tomorrow.
Lemon is tied for Marat, or Thomas, 10.
Well, they've had a lot better just in right field.
Man will remain in center.
Serve is in left.
And has double pumps.
Swings and has a high fly ball hit in the left field.
Serves those balls, puts it in the band, turns, he has it.
And Lemon is out.
That's the first pitch up the second.
He tries to come to the face for the Ligertia Stadium, and the ball is getting a sore high and far out for the left.
And Armand Pillebro hasn't been up for 6th.
Walked in the first inning and was fucked with a pitch in the fourth.
He's got a very, very powerful swing from the end.
High inside curve, ball through.
Down the curve, inside ball free.
And he looks down to third base for a clear edge and sees if he can get anything in mind, whether he wants to let him hit 3 or 1.
No score.
Two out, nobody on, 6th inning.
That's ball high inside, ball four, and Pillebro is on for the third straight time.
It's the fifth ball given up by Charlie.
Armand has gained two of them, and Julio Petrero is on for two.
We just had the official report that Marich went out because his left ankle began to stiffen up.
They bungled that, but accidentally struck him, and was thrown back to claimant.
And the thing we wanted to get out from the painting room is that Marich is expected to claim them on.
He's expecting to have his grounds of all on on that first base, side one.
Two down.
He's going to line drive to serve with three on to end the first inning.
Two out, Pillebro first.
No, not more into the back post.
He doesn't expect Pillebro to be running.
Danger face on the outside, one and one.
He's going to come inside.
Danger face outside, ball two.
Charlie is suddenly beginning to go with more stroke up, even Clamand is throwing the ball hard.
Pillebro is going to push Clamand again.
Two and one.
Down.
Two out.
Charlie steps up to low ball three.
Three one, set, swing the message.
Let him have a fastball.
He's been due.
No score, an automatic run and hit.
He's got the ball in the center of the field and it's a big hit.
When he recovered, around the third base, Pillebro was running with a pitch.
He was going there anyhow.
So McHale lines run in the center.
This is the third hit for Washington.
Here's Earl Baty who's got the second run in the fourth inning.
Right hand hitter, runners are pushed to the third.
No score again.
Charlie's dined on the rubber.
This is uniform, comfortable and loose around him.
Now steps on the rubber, takes a deep breath, that's Kale's.
Line's powered.
Low end side ball one.
Baty is one to two today.
All the first strikes, nothing in one.
One and one.
Right hand to deal.
There's a flat at the heart.
On the outside of the plate, one and two.
So far Charlie has thrown nothing but hard pitches up to three.
He delivered the batty.
Now he has the count of batters, one and two.
Pillebro's runner is straight.
McHale just singles.
There's the man at first.
Now it is holding the back at first.
McHale can run.
Charlie, an effective distance runner in front and behind.
He delivers the fastball on the outside to endo.
Two to two.
Two out.
Pillebro's on the floorboard.
Charlie, ready.
The old fastball's coming on his back.
He went to the car when he had to.
Comes up to the court, strike out.
Leave two on, no run.
One and two.
So far at the end of five and a half.
The Sunday singles are watching to nothing.
Nothing on New York.
You've heard it said the best things in life are free.
In fact, I've said it several times the last four or five days.
Well, we've mentioned all the various things that are free.
I mean, wonderful.
What about your family car though that's not free?
But it's certainly one of life's best things.
A car is a special choice, particularly when it's performing well.
You know, not little things can throw it off.
A weak spot was on a dirty carburetor.
Oh, yes, dirt gets into your carburetor all right.
These dog fumes and other air particles can escape your air cleaner
and collect the flux along the carburetor wall, causing an improper mixture of air and gasoline.
Falling, reviving, and gasoline waste are the common results.
But this problem doesn't have to affect the performance of your car.
Today, Atlantic Imperial Gasoline actually cleans your carburetor as you drive and keep it clean.
Three of your engines have run a little smoother, but use Atlantic Imperial Gasoline.
This could be the answer.
Now the engine fans.
I can see the Latin here now as we have a starless ballgame moving into the bottom of the sixth inning.
Here's Biggie Mantle leading off, a Hector Lopez.
He's out on deck.
Apparently he's trying to get more merit unless he went in last inning without us knowing it.
Apparently that's the story.
All right, here's Mantle.
The mid-
Biggie's interesting Mantle are out there right-handed. They're about being played as a pro hitter.
They're giving him a gap in left center.
Center fielder Dovac is well over into right center.
Biggie Green hits the ball out the right field on this one left the front last night.
They had a no-score game last night.
Mantle first up last in the sixth to home run into the right center field.
In no-score game today, Mantle first up last in the sixth inning to home run into the lower right field.
That's number six for Biggie.
And that is a thing you don't much have to believe.
Same thing last night. First up last in the sixth.
First run of the ballgame was a home run to the opposite field.
Same thing again today.
I thought that was a tremendous thing.
Wheel, wheel, wheel.
So the needle is around the lead. The Mantle is out of his swath. Take the low-fledged up.
Take the curve in for a call strike.
That is really an oddity.
That's just a foul ball on that first.
There was two differences last night.
Kopp was the pitcher and the count on Mantle was two strikes.
Today Wooded Deck is the pitcher. Mickey hit the first pitch.
No fairs with that overly close pass.
One-nothing for the Yankees.
That's a ball too.
Two-pitch. Curve corner on. Hit for the right-field corner. And it's a base hit. Counts again for a ground-lose double.
Hit number five for the Yankees.
Now we have Elston Howard who is one for two. Had a neat hit-and-run single first inning.
The one on both ends is now at work.
The one that gets away from batting and down to third base is Lopez. That's been a fast ball that was failing a little, but a fast ball is starting to catch up.
Lopez is now the one with third. Nobody else. One-nothing New York.
That's a game here electrified by Mantle's home run. And I think a lot of people are still putting together the fact that this is the same way it went just last evening.
One-score game making first up to six innings more times home run. I told them how it was a deal, homie.
The infield is out, so nobody out on the play on the runner. Good to Howard. He's going on to the ground ball to the top.
That's a hole up there for third. Valadiel throws Howard out at first and we have one down and the runner remaining in third.
The serve, over to Howard coming in and they are playing the infield tight. One-fourth.
That's a foul by. That's like one flinging.
That's the base of the left field tension by Smith. The ground nose double, which is one score as Lopez has, he's got it all.
Looking down at him when he saw the ball was in his feet, he was thinking he had a home run. The ground nose double to left, the serve really pulled it.
He's around here two-nothing. He's still signed to move to doper two. He's been wallowing in a slump.
Back to the stands and serve goes over to third base on the wild fifth.
So just as young Jim Cots got into trouble in the sixth inning last night, Woodisheck has had the same fate before him in the sixth inning this afternoon.
The young Javajalho is on his way out of the Washington dugout. He's headed for the mound.
Emotions for the both hands. He's thinking Woodisheck out. The first count of one ball of no strike serve will have to be assumed by the incoming pitcher.
Well, it's rather an eerie feeling. The man will push up in an off-goal game and last to the sixth last night a home run to right field, push up in an off-goal game, last to the sixth inning today a home run to right field, and then the wheels are beginning to turn.
Now as the both hand man comes marching in, let's take a look at the other scores for you. Get you up to date.
Boston is down at Baltimore playing a double-hunter.
Brooks Robinson in the sixth inning has home run for the Orioles with two on.
And at the end of sixth and a half it is Baltimore fighting to hold on in first place with a fine young player.
At the end of sixth and a red card one, Sullivan pitching this one for Boston and Steve Barber for Baltimore.
And who wears badges and throws with a submarine delivery coming in for Washington. At the end of three innings, first to the double-header Cleveland at Detroit, it is three to three in favor of Detroit. All the runs have been a result of home runs.
Now ahead of base four to three. Got them off the automatically.
Now Woodiceck walks away and the manager off-goals and Big High takes over.
End of an inning out of Kansas City, four going to Chicago, Johnson from Kansas City has won nothing in favor of the Athletics.
In the national big single game, Philadelphia is at six-berg at the end of sixth inning. It is six-berg to seven and Philadelphia four.
Milwaukee, Cincinnati is at two feet high at the end of four and a half. San Francisco, Cape Louis has won nothing San Francisco and it is three and a half.
Time is now being called on every point of the range. At the end of four and a half innings, Los Angeles and Chicago is leading three to nothing.
Good snob, I count it for the runs with a home run with two on to four innings.
Well, Big High taking over.
Time, throw the street quarter underhand and underhand. You do not see that delivery too frequently.
Two years ago he was one of the top release men defenders. Come in and get you out.
All right, here is the status. The Yankees have two runs in and made two nothings. Last of the sixth inning, one man out.
The runner serves his third base. Sean is out to count his one and all. It is up to High to have responsibility no matter whether he walks in or slides out or anything else.
The Yankees come on and hit out to left field. Lemon comes on and takes it. The ball goes forward. And Simon is coming around second. He makes it try to come in. That is the third base. He brings him around. He brings him around. He brings him around. Here is the relay and he is out.
The field is out. They got all and got the ball. Billy Gartner was in on the relay. I do not know whether he was in on his two or not.
The batter had him at the place but the tipple from Cowan is out trying to make it an inside to a park home run. And Sezetti was bringing him in all the time. Frank Gabbard would take the first relay to get him and that is what happened. The door run is in however and it is three nothings. On the out for the most and the tipple. It was a hard line drive. The lemon is out to two string to left field.
Now is Mike Dugald and takes the curve over for a tall strike.
Three nothings, Bay of New York.
Gartner starts to whittle. He hits it across the hide. Mike Dugald takes strike two. And underhand. And his six miss score. They set a field into the second baseman. I knew I saw Gartner make the throw to the plate for batter. I was watching Sezetti's time. Whether he touched up or not. He had thrown it on to the second baseman. But no it was eight to four to two.
Wow. You think you can stand two six innings?
Nine 50s underhand and a curve on the outside ball two. Two and two.
Two balls two strikes.
Nobody on.
And then the center fielder came over. He sees the ball has gotten through the left field. The center fielder retrieves the ball and left center. And by the time he came up with the ball the drop stop was two feet to be practically useful. But the second baseman had to let me come over to be the relay man and that was what it was.
All right. Runner first. Here's Bobby Richardson who is over two.
I feel he's back in the right arm Bobby. They're giving him all of left batter.
And Bobby swinging fouls it off.
One strike.
The right hand is really throwing that ball from almost down on the ground. It's almost rarely seen delivering.
The second baseman down for the fourth on my curve.
The Yankees pick up three runs.
Very uptime right now.
Two minutes before the hour of four.
The Baltimore is not the end of seven.
Four home run.
Two points to beat the Dallas and Madison
the ball.
The game comes just to St. Louis at the end of the three and a half inning is being held
up right now because of rain and of course that is not an official game.
All right, Val de Villalto takes the fifth inside for a ball.
Surely had given him an inside chip to start him with while I was checking the score so
the count is not two balls in the strike.
It is three nothing in favor of New York.
See nothing said there, it is over for the strike.
Benny Green is on dash to finally to hit for, release the curve hide.
Here in the seventh inning, Val de Villalto has no choice but to go to his back, Ryan,
three nothing.
There is a front effort for a base hit that fouled off back over to the business shut
down.
Yankees had bunch of hits today, they had three hits in the first inning but they got
nothing.
Too bad they got thrown out of the special.
And then the last of the six, Maddow, an obstacle home run, worked him up, added two more.
There is a ball hit to the right side of field, Maddow going over, over and makes a turn.
It looks like it wasn't going to be caught.
Now the enough that Benny Green is going to hit for hide.
It's going to hit there, it's played into right field, runs up and punches the ball
and misses it completely.
Strike one.
The Yankees are keeping a man up on the bullpen.
Strike one pitch, third ball is high, one and one.
One ball, one strike.
The Yankees are going to be slightly tripped then if he's delivered the ball and he's
moving out the mound.
The right hand delivers and Green is swinging into high five ball right after where Hector
Lopez is playing right field.
There's the cut.
And then he has two down.
Billy Garner walks the double and the five all the way.
And then Maddow, both hits on the Washington team, six pass ball high, ball one.
And then he's in front of Bennett, early, field, pass ball inside, ball two.
And then he's in front of the Yankees, three.
And then he's in front of the Yankees, four.
And then he's in front of the Yankees, five.
And then he's in front of the Yankees, six.
And then he's in front of the Yankees, seven.
And then he's in front of the Yankees, eight.
Last half of the cut.
Double headed tomorrow.
Raymond, he starts, will be the starter for Washington.
Terry and Hittmar will be the starters for New York.
And then after the double headed Yankees go to Baltimore for three night games,
and they're home Friday night.
And then starts Saturday afternoon.
And the double headed Sunday will be today.
Then followed the tremendous week where the White Star's set for four games to them at night, Monday and Wednesday.
The Indians end for four games Friday night, double Sunday.
Terry takes the pick to play down in that first place.
They're not playing it to pull.
The off-field is laid back at the right.
So I'm certain he's at the high fly ball.
That's the second base for Billy Gardner.
He's on going hot and very short right field.
That's the second play they have.
One down and it's 20-2 back, one for two.
He's going to walk.
That's the second base for Billy Gardner.
He's going to walk right hander field and two back into high fly and he's going right center.
Now, Ricky is off getting left hander to get this to leave right hander.
And Springden does not get a low inside curve, strike one.
Now, Brooks is nothing, nothing game when he let off the last of the pick for the home run.
And the right field just as he did last evening.
The curve is good for a 12-second strike.
And he's going to play it off by Papparello a little bit about that.
And he's waiting at the edge of the wall and makes the turn.
And he's going to play it off by Papparello.
Nothing in one to go.
And he's going to play it off by Papparello.
