The Philadelphia Athletics faced the Chicago White Sox for a Thursday afternoon game at
Comiskey Park on July 30, 1936. Philadelphia was in last place, 23 games under 500, managed
by 73-year-old Connie Mack in his 39th year with the Athletics. The White Sox were an
average club coming into the game with a 50-45 record, coached by Jimmy Dykes in his third
year as manager. The audio recording is from the radio broadcast featuring announcer Hal
Totten.
Your neighborhood Texaco service station welcomes you to another baseball broadcast brought
to you by the
Two Lights and two
over here Tony is now third baseman last time we had him on the area was the second baseman so
Tony I want to ask you some questions about that one
You were on before you said didn't you that second base has been your position regularly ever since you started playing
Oh, yes, I have played second base more, but I think I can play third base as well if I play long enough
Oh, I know you play it very well whether you play long enough or not
You look like an old trooper out there, but you played some of that up there in the International League last year
Yes, I have played a few games. Yes, this is the one that bounces a lot alongside of you out there
Old Lucius Luke, huh?
That's right. I played a little with the Reds. I think I played about 50 games of third base in 1934 with the Reds
That gave me a pretty good idea about third base, but still I have a lot to learn
Well, what is the key difference you find between those two positions?
Well, I haven't played third base much this year and I think it's all in the throwing finally that the arm has got to be
Rebuilt a hull over again on different different muscles put into you. That's all there is to it
How well the throw from second base is mostly on thunder and that's right. This is more of an overhand throw and of course
It's a ball comes at you at a different angle and I've got to learn to hitters and Jimmy's been a great help to me
He is sort of moves around the in-and-out he does
I like it for you mind going in after those but well
They haven't been buttoned much, but I believe I can make him it I'm just there in the bunk. That's all
I just there and told you be in there charged. That's right. I'll be
Well, even if that over there second base sometimes some of these fellas a few fellas are still dragged bunch
We start a poem down where you got to come over and get them
That's about the nerdy the same as a bunch only the shows the shorter the more of a flip
I see from sex from second. Yeah outside of the throw though you find
That's the
Approximately the same coach for fly balls
I suppose it is you got to take all balls here and play it off the grandstand a little bit
Then you do that second base over the other side. That was well over a second base
First the beat the ball come out here. What do you mean when you said it came at you?
It's different angle when you don't say the brothers
As you do a second base the ball kind of just flies off the bat especially left-hand hitter
It just comes at you before you know it
And it's a like what I call the hot corner. How I see another well, I get it in other words
You've got to really start a little fixer. Yeah
You just got to get the knack of where which way the ball will break
So see you're right up here left and most of them going down there curving more than they are out there
So they're really too aren't they?
They sometimes look at a slice of the ball
And you've just if you play a third base long enough you'll be able to tell whether the ball will go two or three feet
So either side of you, but you've got to get used to the vision of it. That's the knack of playing third base
Only look to it looks a little bit. So you got that bat swinging good again. You got a little clump there for a while
Oh hell, I was playing happen. I know I
Played having but I just probably have one for too long of a period what?
Thank you several fellas on the club this club and every other club there
I've seen them all up and down the line they get them every year and when it's all over it's all over
How'd they got to be in a club all year? We could just keep wearing ballgames
Well, that's right to a Tony. I imagine you want to try off a little you've been out there getting all full of first-rate and I
want to thank you a lot for stopping here chatting with us with you a lot of luck at your new job and
That fellow Dyches deserves a rest and you're giving him a good one and not making him worry about it, which is okay
All right. Thank you. I was Tony five ladies and gentlemen me

I'm going to start a little check up there to the booth
possibly a little bit earlier than at some times because I
Want to chat with a certain young man that I saw here and it stands on the way up
I might add though that it's another one of those days that well you sort of dream about out here perfect sunshine
But a nice cool breeze off the lake blowing in
From the north there. What do you got there? Teddy?
Oh a brand new potato. Old Teddy Lyons managed to seek a brand new potato from somebody and he's
Gonna have an autograph for somebody gonna send that back to Opelousas. I mean, where is that place down there you live?
Luziana that where it's going
It is and how did you get who'd you sneak that on Billy Webb or did you just sneak it?
Oh, he gave you that one
Two of your
Okay, Teddy Lyons gave a log you're just beaming all over you had a brand new ball to get autographed
You people that asked for baseballs have no idea how tough it is to get them and as a matter of fact a
Ball players have a tougher time now listen Merv
Merv's going to pull my trouser leg off that's bad
The ball players themselves have a tougher time getting them than most of the fans do or friends of the
Fans or somebody like that. They have to sort of big far. We're stealing. Otherwise, maybe they'd have one every day but
On this perfect day with the breeze blowing in nice cool sun out nice and warm making about an even possibility
I think probably we'd better start upstairs and as we make that trek up there to the booth uncle George
How about a little switch the studio?
Attention motorists
Too many of you are digging down into your pockets to pay over and over again for motor oil an extra quart now
A couple more quarts a few hundred miles later constantly refilling the crankcase
You'll be glad to know that your Texaco dealer has an entirely new motor oil that will positively cut down your oil consumption
The need to have carbon removed and protect your engine longer against wear and tear
The new Texaco motor oil made by the first year all process provides a newer tougher lubricating film that resists burning up inside the engine
It puts more miles between the quartz you buy with a new Texaco motor oil your car will not be oiled
First year all of the special refining material when oil is treated with first year all a stronger lubricating film result
This first year all film acts like a protective wrapping for each of the moving parts of your engine
It lubricates better for many extra miles providing greater more complete engine protection
From the minute you fill the crankcase of your car with the new Texaco motor oil you begin saving real money
You still pay only a quarter a quart but you get greater mileage between those quarts
So change now at any Texaco station to this tougher longer lasting oil with a first year all film
Make your driving dollars go further
And now for a look at the, I see we haven't time for that
I see that Hal Todd is ready and we'll go back to Comiskey Park to the baseball game brought to you by permission of the Chicago White Sox and the Philadelphia Athletics to stimulate interest in our national game and in your local team
Take it Hal Todd
Am I on the air George?
Don't tell me I'm on the air
Well being on the air I'm on the air but I talk on the air
So in that case why, well in fact that the umpires have finished their conference at the plate and taking their positions out there in the field
Bump our twin behind the plate umpire Hubbard on first base and Bill McGowan, our old buddy out there third
Bill McGowan I might add is one of the discoveries and admits it and is very proud of it are baseball riders
Introduced Bill McGowan into the American League
So many many years ago the Yankees were coming north
And they're playing a lot of games and they picked up one of the teams I don't remember which one
To play some games with and as they went along they had umpire McGowan with them he was just a youngster
They liked his ambitions and his hustle and the baseball writers went back to New York and they called Ben Johnson
And they kept the ban until he hired him and now we have here the fellow who not only to the observers
But also to the ball players themselves is the finest umpire or one of the first to say that the ball players voted him the best umpire in the league
From a ball player's point of view but he's by far one of the finest umpires that the game has known
And he has sort of taken his little fellow Quinn under his wing, Quinn the boy who is with him and who had a bad year last year
But has come along in grand shape this year to become another great umpire and by nursing with him, talking baseball with him
And otherwise putting himself out as necessary to satisfy his thirst for knowledge of just how to handle his job
He's made a great umpire out of him. I think he's going to develop also into a fine umpire. Hubbard, the youngster that is out here
Is also coming along fine. Well for the fourth day in a row Finney goes after the first ball pitch to him
Hits the ground ball down to the second baseman and he's thrown up so his percentage is 50-50 in the opening game
And in the third game of the series he hit the first ball pitch and made base hits
In the second game and again in this game he was out on that first pitch and so it's one out of the first inning for the athletic
And Wally Moses the center fielder up there bumped the first one with his foul to the left of the plate
And Foyer comes in to get it but there's no play because it was outside and it's strike one
Ball is going back out to Kennedy the pitcher
And starts to wind up throwing the next one inside and low for ball one so the county is one and one. One ball and one strike
On Moses
And there's ball two it's inside and low. You remember Kennedy started the first game of the series here and lost it he was very wild
And eventually things went very badly although the stock ended up tying up the score
Didn't do an awful lot of good. He reaches out the ball again and this one goes foul clear over the clock dugout
And so it's two and two two balls and two strikes
Here's the next hit to hitters swing get a little looping fly on left field. Racklin comes in fast can't get to it and it drops in there for a base hit
Little looping technical leaguer into left field for a single for Moses putting him on first base with one out of the first inning
And Chubb Dean the first baseman is there
He throws the first one the runners on the go the hitter takes it inside and low and the runner slides in safely
And he got a great start on that ball Moses as I mentioned time and again in this series and another series
One of the fastest men in the game and he got a great jump on the ball at time
Usually stole second who got the throw away very well very fast. He got out there in a hurry while it was a little bit high
Still the runner was in there the base long before it arrived long speaking in the center comparative time because
Naturally those plays happen fast now Dean hits the next one a ground ball to Appling who gets it throws the third
And five tags the runner out sliding in there for the second out Moses kept right on third base happening got the ball through
It the fire who just merely put the ball down there and let Moses slide right into it for the second up
So it's two out in the first inning to the athletics Dean on first base and George Puccinelli the athletics right fielder is a fast
Throw the first one and George take the fast strike over the outside corner about me huh one strike on Puccinelli
And there's the next one wide and low for fall one in the county's one ball and one strike one and one on the food
As he's gone again turns and throws the first run to get back in plenty of time
Oh the ball comes back pitcher as it looks at first and pitches and the hitters swings and it's a high fastball inside or strike
Two and it's one ball and two strikes on Puccinelli one on TV count
Now the runner on the golf course falls this one into the stands the right of play well and land just short of the stands over there
And it's still one ball and two strikes on Puccinelli
I don't think that was a hit and run play I think push just one
He should cover to protect the runner when he thought the runner didn't get away soon enough and fouled off a bad ball because they'd hardly put the
Highest run on the account of one and two unless they're pretty good some reason to be sure the pitcher they did it again
They hit her at the ground ball down to fight who starts to throw the second sees that there's nobody there
So turns and throws the first throw is wide the vanilla grabs it and then blocks the runner off and tags him out
Always well hit and the fire grabbed it running over towards second he thought it would be a good play
I guess to get the man a second because he was running in that direction and that short throw is a throw more accustomed to what
He has been used to at second base. There's nobody there. So he turned it through wide the first and
But no are reaching way out to the left grab the ball down low and headed in plenty of time to block Puccinelli off
So it's no runs one hit one man left on the in the first half of the first and the score is nothing to nothing
The white dog come to bat in the last half of the first inning with Zip Rat Clip as usual the first man at best
Dusty road
Originally when I first know him he was with the New York Yankees. He didn't stay there long went to the Boston Red Sox was with them for quite a while
And came to the A's last winter in the deal one of these numerous deals
Clean the athletics and the Red Sox
And he's been pitching some pretty good ball for this club
But this is his first appearance in Chicago this year and a rather stockly built fellow are expected and very handsome
Better for you young ladies
The way out there now get your sign such as wind up the first one to wrap this doggy little left-handed hitters and rip
Swing did it off the shortstop would take down a great big long hop close the first and rip it out easily for the first out in the
First one off and Mike Pivic is up there. Those who call Phil have the handicap of it
Pushed it back and he could have running down first base yesterday
So Mike has been moved over his center field field spot and Hoss back in right
And the first pitch to Pivic is a wide one low football what we did to the right-handed hitter
So as you sign again start to wind up
Rose and Mike reaches out the button one down toward third base again comes in fast grabs it goes very high to first but
The only time there to grab it. Please it's the main time having first base easily so it's a base hit a front
On third base line by Pivic putting him on first base with one out of the first inning for the white dog and you will have to the best
Ready to pitch the first one throws and you'll take the ball at inside and blow one ball called
General says the sign and pitchers and mule swing get a ball like straight back at the second baseman who fumbles it and by the time he gets to the ball he runner is safe at first base on an error by a nearby rather not by a foot an error by Johnson and rather easily at ball to right straight at him took a high hop but he didn't follow it at all
So now the white dog runners on first and second with one out of the first inning and deep Minora is a fast ball at the first player that we have seen the Johnson has looked good on in his transplanted position in the series
First pitch is deep as a wide run across the way for all one
Again swings around as he gets his time ready and pitchers and deep takes ball to his wide across the chip and make the two and nothing
He was in those strikes but you're ready again throws and deep twist away to take the third ball inside across the way to make it three and nothing three balls and no strike on the
field still got our symphony orchestra out here George here the whistle you're ready once more takes another look back at second throw and it's a strike over the heart of the plate a little above the knees he let it go by without
a strike so it's three and one three balls and one strike and again the pitcher throws he gets the ball hard in the center field the center fielder Moses is in there to make the catch for the second out but it's not to go back to their
bases ball was very hard hit a line smash center field but it was right straight at Moses the center fielder so it's two out in the first inning for the White Sox they still have runners on first and second and Luke Appling is at best
to go to the right things wrong you got the sign gets ready to pitch throws and it's a strike over the outside corner about me one strike on Appling
and it's ready again takes another look back at second and throws Luke swings the bat clips out of his hand goes clear out to the pitches but as the ball goes down to the third baseman and Lucas safe and roses mad throws the bat clear out of the
infield just misses umpire went down there wrote the so sore because in hitting that ball about flipped out of that link and rolled out to the pitches but wrote stood there wants to come out there and let it roll up on his feet and then he was mad and
threw it out and then he was able to clear off the mound and out into fall territory as Appling beat out the ball for an infield hit now the White Sox have the basis ball with two out in the first inning and it's a wide one across the knees
and now one one ball called those walks up to the dirt in front of the mound moves down a little bit
walks back out there just as cap now start to wind up throws and Jackie Hayes the bat falls the ball back against the catcher's glove and back to the scene and it's one on one on he one ball and one strike
one and one is a comp with the throws again and Jackie swings and this one for strike two and it's one and two one ball and two strikes
one and two waiting out there again seems to be getting his sign takes a look at third base starts to wind up and pitches and Jackie hits the ball out in the left center I think it's going to fall in there it is for a base hit one run is in the ball is coming into the plate as the second
runner scores the other runners advanced to second and third with coming in pretty hard and almost falling over he tries to come up on his feet at the single spectacle Liger to buy practice those big still leaders can drive in those runs can't they
single left center by his board David and the first two runs the ball game both on earned runs because the error that hadn't been made would have made it he third out when the Nura flying out and runners around second and third with two out two runs home in the first inning and Tony Platt is at bat winds up throw the first one and plant
the ball away big ball inside across the chip is all set to go after that one to the throws again and try to take the strike over the heart of the plate way high and the count is one and one one ball and one strike on fire throws
it out and Tony swings and falls the ball back against the math and rolls out into the infield and the catcher goes out together looks it over he comes back on park when this thrown another ball into the game calls for that one and I think he's going to throw it out
the catcher has lifted over and indicated it should be a win after a look at it throws it out of the game young players you know the only ones authorized to do that and on park when to follow the rules that examine it to make sure that it really was improper for you it's one of two one ball and two strikes and
the catcher throws the gun hitters started to swing stuff the ball hit the bat and rolled over there but and the catcher started to go after a fan reached into the fancy and grabbed it and got to walk back without it I don't think the catcher knew whether that ball had been
thrown or not thought maybe it might have been a fastball when chasing over after and then both Dean and road came rushing into cover the umpire called it a foul and strike so it's still one and two on one ball and two strikes once
again the catcher is going to put your head that time starts to wind up throws and Tony take the wide run across the knee for a ball to catcher started to run toward the bench so he thought that was a called third strike road made a half hearted start
toward the bench but take the ball and goes back out the mound the count is two balls and two strikes on fire to enter the count winding up again throws and five gets ball three missed the outside corner up
around the chip and it makes it three and two three balls and two strikes on fire I talked to a runner on second and third with two out two runs home and they're leading the athletics to the nothing in the first
inning throws winds up throws again and pride get ball for wide and low and get the base on ball so that fills the bases for the White Sox in the first inning throughout two runs already home bases full and looks to look back or two to
nothing in favor of the White Sox start to wind up pitches and it's a high one inside for ball one one ball on two winding up again he throws and looks
to the right side of the plate and now swings and falls the ball back get the umpire's master time pounds way out against the fans the left plate Mark Quinn merely adjust the math to try to bump he turns around to somebody
and he's got a baseball minute one and one one ball and one strike and to get the second strike a beauty over the heart of the plate down around the knees and they get one ball and two strikes on two on and two winds up again
and two swings and misses striking out for the third out in the first inning went around on one ball it didn't look as though it had a thing on it but he didn't hit it so I must have something that's wrong that empty last half of the first
inning so it's two runs three four hits one two three hits one error and three men left on the score is two to nothing in favor of the White Sox at the end of the first inning motor oil has more than one job to do
it must lubricate all the moving parts of the mortar and must feel the power in the cylinder and it must help to keep moving parts cool there is one way you can be absolutely sure that the motor oil in your car is doing a complete job
who's nothing but new Texaco motor oil Bob Johnson range the right handed hitter the athletic second baseman the fact start the second inning and he winds up throws Bob swings the ball back onto the roof the stand right up back of the plate and it's one strike on
Johnson one strike account there's a ball inside across the way so the county is one ball and one strike one and one on Johnson and now come ball to it's over the plate but too low so it's two balls and one strike on Bob
one and one swings again it on a fly coming down far away back here I believe it's on the roof. Yeah. Right up over our head.
It's clear out over and back down into 35th Street. So he swings again as the high flag going far to the right of the plate to following out under it toward the stand to the right and makes the catch for the first out in the second.
I think for the athletic and they get thinking again the third baseman is at bat.
There's a swing the first pitchers started doing time but he felt in time pull away from inside pitch and have a call for one.
There's a wide one local ball to an account is to another thing.
There's a strike over the heart of the plate just above the knees. So if you've all been one strike on Higgins to and one account.
Now it comes right to a fastball over the heart of the plate way side and the count is three and two.
There comes a fourth ball inside and Kennedy really had trouble with his control to both men finally walk again. I think he's on first base with one out of the second inning and Frankie he captured up there at the plate.
Kennedy throws the first one and the fast one that's inside across the way to fall one one ball called one ball called to ready again.
He's got a lot of trouble with his control three days ago in the open game.
This series remember when he was defeated although the stock divided up later on he was knocked out of there.
There comes a strike fastball over the heart of the plate way side. One thing about this kid he may have bad control but he never quit fair and down.
He's going to throw it with everything he's got and it goes away from the plate is too bad but he's still going plenty.
He loses that one by Jeff and I like down the corner and it goes and falls three.
That was pretty close to corner. So three balls and one strike on he ran one account.
He throws first base runner gets back there.
Kennedy pitches again and it's ball for wide and low and he's also get the base on ball who's taking second base and the athletic runners on first and second with nobody I will with one out of the second inning and knew some whitey knew some the shortstop is a fast.
And the first pitch to strike over the heart of the plate just above the knees one strike on new some strike the count and there's a ball wide and still throws the ball the first base.
The throw is very bad and so the other athlete into the infield gravity really a bit of a pretty well off the base but it's so we're so high and wide that we're at least a bag and chasing the infield leap into the air to grab.
So it's one one one ball and one strike on new.
Kennedy swings around again.
He's got a little bit of a
pitch and it falls to it just barely missed the outside corner across the way. So it's two balls and one strike one
throws again with the runners on the go ahead it's a ball thrown to right field for a base hit.
So I looked at the ball and started jogging after it. And finally when he did run out there ball which should have been easily caught that seat throw in the right field for a base hit the new some single the right.
Going against the second base and moving page to third base.
The score is 2 to 1 in favor of the bite doc and the A's have runners on first and third one out one run home in the second inning and road the pitcher is a fast.
He takes the first one for a strike out of the inside corner above the knees. But it's playing in pretty close figuring that you might try to pull a squeeze play at least back by the man first and second and the next pitch sales wide for ball one.
It's one ball and one strike on road.
First base.
First run is back.
Might be figuring out there's a chance of their time to pull something and there comes the next one a curve ball a breaking away from the hitter that caught the outside corner a little above the knees or strike two and it's one ball and two strikes on
road.
One or two to count.
It was all set to run on the next one but he pulled back and time let it go by for the second ball and ball popped out of schools love it rolled just a few feet in the infield.
So look grab the rub up watch him call something to Kennedy calls after him as Bern start back to the mound and the two come back to places with Kennedy on the rubber and school talking back to play fast time to balls and to strike.
And there comes the next pitch for ball three wide across the way from Kennedy will really be in a serious jam now.
He can't get this ball over on the pitch because there's a fellow you've got to get if you're going to win.
He's got to get this ball over on the pitch because there's a fellow you've got to get if you're going to win.
So the Norricks throws the ball back to Kennedy and he pitches the pitch a high one wide for ball two on Finney two and one two balls and one strike.
The ball one hand to another finally things wrong with the rubber only to find any out of the batter's box.
That the runners eyes ready to pitch pitches and it's all three.
It's wide and low and it's three and one.
He's got to get them over better than that he's got to have some serious trouble again today.
One club that he's supposed to be quite handily but they certainly pinned his ears back the other day.
Now with a run around the goal the hitter hits a long drive to Pennefield but Cleavage is waiting there.
Has it and it's three out.
Handing that inning with only half of the White Sox lead cut off.
Score two to one in favor of the White Sox.
They come to bat the last half of the second inning with Kennedy White Sox pitcher.
First man at bat.
Broadcast for the White Sox Philadelphia game comes to you direct from the Misty Park the home of the White Sox in Chicago as a presentation of your neighborhood.
Textical dealer distributor of technical fire chief gasoline broadcast comes with the permission of the White Sox and the athletic stimulate interest in our national game and in your own local baseball team.
WCFL at Chicago.
So it's against that is warm up out there in the moment.
Brother this time with Moss number two catcher and Hayes just walking up there to play.
Frank was on base the end of the ending there over on third base.
He had to wait a moment to take a moment to get into his card.
They're on the floor. Kennedy comes hustling out of the dugout and up the plate stands there to watch the last throw.
Moss throws the ball out the second day.
Johnson across it to Newcombe and back to pitcher and Johnson and Newcombe have a little contact of some sort there.
Just as they back over toward their position same as they did yesterday early in the game.
Now they go back there.
Roses up in front of them on moving down the dirt with his eight shoot.
Kennedy has an easy bond right back at Newton will get the throw the first and Bernie's out for the first out of the second one out of the second inning for the White Sox and Red Clips is at that.
And then back on the slab.
The first one on the river takes it wide and low curveball away from him for ball one one ball called.
And winds up into the red swing did about right back at Johnson got the throw the first and rep is out for the second time today and two innings and second out of the second inning.
So two out of the second inning for the White Sox Mike Pettis White Sox center fielder who paged away to the White Sox to run first inning by beating out a front is upset plate throws and Mike swings their fall down the right field line and back against the front of the second
back at bounce down front and clear back out in the field by Hubbard called Simon is starting out there to get the ball. Second base and started over to Hubbard kept right on going to get it.
One strike on people winding up once more throws and Pettis take the curveball wide and go for ball one and it's one ball and one strike on Mike one and one to get start to wind up throws and hitters swings it's possible toward right field.
And the way over that manages to grab the ball and by the time he retrieves it the runner is safe at first.
And as a result, it is on first base or two out in the second inning.
And the heart is a fact.
I think that Wayne Otto was in a way for a couple of days and back on the job. He is the official score and he said he was going to relay him to us.
And the first pitch to heart the strike over the inside corner about me. Hi one strike on half.
Wayne give any sign on it.
I thought so.
I guess I'm getting too old to take a little controversy.
I don't know. I'm getting after that birthday when I was 29 again. Why? I don't know how many times that's been with quite a few hits the next one.
It's a slow bottom to the second base will grab it and tag.
I think it's out and then through the first to make sure the other man also. But he was tagged out at second base and it's three out when given a little.
He says that silly business is the bunk with him. He's official for and he's going to give it to us.
Yeah. I went out all that. Thank you.
One run one hit one man left on base in the second inning for the White Sox and the story still 2 to 1 in favor of the stock.
The end of the second.
You got near Texas go go get you have you're working on it.
Oh I've had some swelling for a fan about ways of scoring something.
Oh I'm going to bring that one letter down here.
I had three very good sessions in it and I want to dig it up and answer those questions just exactly how they were.
I'll bring that out tomorrow. You know how to get it. Get your request card at your technical station.
Fill it in and send it in and you'll get this well for work with 17 games with the complete scoring system and everything else.
Now most of it about takes the first pitch inside for ball one and there's ball two and this is the outside corner above the knee.
Rather clear up to the shoulder well above the knee.
And it's two and nothing.
Two balls and no strikes.
And he throws again for a strike this time over the outside corner down around the knees and it's two balls and one strike.
Two and one on Moser.
Goes once more while he swings and hit a high fly in the short center field. Pavech is coming in hard under it and makes the catch over in right center.
The wind having held it up and dropped it in there.
So it's one out on the third inning for the athletic.
And Dean, Shub Dean, the first baseman is at bat.
Dean's another left-handed hitter who's looking mighty, mighty good out there. Throws the first one and Shub swings it up on her down to Rappling who comes up with it nicely.
Throws the first and Dean is out for the second out.
Makes it two out in the third inning for the athletic.
Two out in the third inning and Puccinelli is up there at the plate.
Puccinelli at bat.
Throws the first one and the Pucch takes it inside across the waist. A ball one.
One ball called.
The wind's up and throws again. The hitter hits another ball and back back the pitcher.
The hitter comes up with it nicely back of second base. Throws the first and it's three out. No runs, no hits in the first half of the third inning.
And the score remains two to one in favor of the White Sox.
Sox coming to bat in the last half of the third inning.
First man up will be Zeke Menorah, the White Sox first baseman and clean-up hitter.
Athletic players coming out on the field with Rose just walking out across the infield to start his warm-up out there on the slab.
Oh boy what weather. Perfect day dark. Cool enough. A lot of sunshine.
You wear that old battered leather coat of yours and feel comfortable. Without that coat you don't feel comfortable do you?
Even on a hot day. Just looks at it alone when you want to put it on.
Hey I got a lot of slow wires there that you brought in yesterday. Came from the studio that were delivered there on Tuesday.
But I just got yesterday afternoon an open extra.
Devlin. Huh? Again yeah only 29 again. Hey somebody down in San doesn't believe me today. Said you're 29 on 10.
Told her she was a whole lot more than 14 I knew.
Here's Zeke Menorah batting. Rose winding up and he throws the first one for a ball inside across the chest.
Ball one.
One ball called. Rose winds up throws once more and it's a strike over the outside corner across the knees.
And it's one and one. One ball and one strike on Menorah.
One and one. Throws again and Zeke swings in a high fly out into right field.
Short right field the wind is blowing it back toward the foul line and Johnson follows it in there and makes the catch nicely.
Although he had to not only judge a dangerous win but he had to battle his son all the way also.
So it's one out in the third inning for the White Sox and Affleck Luke Affleck is up there at the plate.
Rose winds up pitches and Luke takes the wide one across the chest for ball one. One ball called.
Ready again winds up and throws and hitters swing to follow ball up on the roof of the stand above him to the right of the plate and it's one and one. One ball and one strike.

This time Dean the first baseman following it across the foul line and makes the catch just in foul territory for the second out in the third inning.
Two out in the third inning for the White Sox with Jackie Hayes White Sox second baseman up there at the plate. Hayes is back.
Wines up throws Jackie takes a strike over the heart of the plate about waist high one strike on Hayes.
Brings again a hit a line drive to left field with the left field if he's waiting. Oh he almost misjudged it and had to leap high in the air to make a one handed catch of it for the third out.
Then he stood there and jogged in a couple of steps and then saw the ball start to sail over his head instead of thinking as he apparently thought it was going to.
He had to leap into the air to make a fine one handed leaping stab of the ball to get it for the third out.
So it's no runs no hits in the third inning for the White Sox and the score remains two to one in favor of the White Sox at the end of the third inning.
Now for complete scores up to the minute and complete batteries from other cities we return to the studio.

Win or no win clear into the lower deck of the left field stands and deep left center.
Ratcliffe made a great try for the ball leaving high in the air but it just slipped over the top of the scoreboard into the feet for a home run.
Now Higgins goes after the first ball pit and drives it out the center field just to the right of center for a single.
A drive in for Kennedy going to get his ears pinned back for the second time in the series.
That's the way they started out against him the other day they just murdered everything he threw and the stocks are taking no chances.
They have a pitcher warming up in the left field bullpen as Frank Hayes takes the first pitch wide for ball one.
There comes ball to another curveball way outside and it's two on nothing two balls and no strike.
Well nothing is account that it swings again to miss a curveball for strike one and it's two balls and one strike on Hayes.
Thank you Ernie.
Two and one is account two balls and one strike.
Pitcher throws the first runners back there.
Now he pitches ball three very wide and it's three balls and one strike on Hayes.
And he sends a rolling up that ball finally gets ready to pitch again.
Draws and Frank gets a strike over the inside corner about waist high.
Makes the usual start toward first base but comes back fast and it's three and two.
Three balls and two strikes.
Now the runner on the goal hitter hits a long foul on the roof of the 10.
Down beyond first base and it's still three balls and two strikes on Frank Hayes the out-buddy catcher.
That in the fourth inning.
Nobody out one run already home and Higgins on first base.
Higgins again is on the run.
There's another foul up over the roof of the 10 above on the right of the plate.
Three and two still.
There's the next one for ball four wide and Hayes gets a base on ball.
Moves Higgins to second base.
The out-buddy catcher runners on first and second with nobody out in the fourth inning.
One run already home and Newsom the shortstop is at bat.
Yes, Vernon's having a lot of serious trouble out there.
I don't know whether he's going to be able to get out of it because when the control isn't there it's hard to get out of a jam.
And he's having it tough.
Newsom actually was going to front but the birdie apparently didn't intend to.
Just intended to look for the bat ball and he got it.
One run wide and low for ball one.
The Philadelphia runners on first and second.
Nobody out in the fourth.
One run home and the score tied two and two.
And it's the next one to hit a high fly down the right field line.
Going foul.
Lands down there against the front of the stand.
It's one and one. One ball and one strike on Newsom.
Kennedy right there for his time as Hough gets back to his position.

Hayes to second.
Now the A's have runners on second and third.
There's one out.
One run already home in the fourth inning.
And the pitcher Gordon Rhodes, Dusty Rhodes is up there at the plate.
They still call all the roads Dusty Rhodes even though we have a lot of concrete.
You can't have nowadays instead of old dirt roads.
Still Dusty.
Here the swing is hard at the first pitch and fouls it back against the catcher.
The protector bounds over halfway off the first base.
Now it comes in gets it throws it back to the catcher.
And he winds up against Rose and Dusty.
He swings around and throws a bunt and then takes the top of the ball.
And misses it for strike two.
Two old thing and swing around and bundling position.
Tried to run out front.
As a result the ball hit his club and rolled over to the right a little bit.
So it's two strikes on the road.
In field pulled in real close.
Almost to the infield grass.
I think it's a little bit run at the plate if possible.
And he throws the next one.
It's a little pop live foul to the left of the plate on a bunt.
So he's out automatically on a foul bunt on the third strike.
Score it as a strike out.
And you can make a footnote if you want to in your scorebook.
As we do drawing a line from that K.
The lower right hand corner down to the margin indicating foul bunt on third strike.
Now the man up there, Penny, watches the first pitch come by wide for ball one.
Hello Mr. Pennsylvania.
You remember this today.
And there's one wide for ball two.
Making it two and nothing.
Two balls and no strike.
Going nothing to count.
But winds up again.
Throw the hitter swings and pull a foul down past first base for the first strike.
And it makes it two and one.
Two balls and one strike on Penny.
One one to count.
Penny walks around the back out of the batter's box.
There's Kennedy rubs up a new ball.
Here comes the next pitch and a hitter hits a bound right back.
It just glances off of the pitchers glove.
And Hayes makes a great play in front of second base to get the ball and throw to the first.
Oh that play was really a beauty by Hayes.
Kennedy leaps into the air and just managed to slow up that ball a little bit.
Hayes came over fast, grabbed it with a great underhand flip toss.
Got Penny at first base on a close play for the third up.
That ends the fourth inning and Kennedy pitched out of the inning in great style.
After looking very wobbly at the start he settled down and looked just the opposite of wobbly.
One run, two hits, two men left on base in the first half of the fourth inning.
And the score remains a tie two and two between the White Sox and the Athletics.
White Sox coming to bat in the last half of the fourth.
First White Sox hitter will be Tony Piot.
Third base he already waits there.
That could be played as Moss warms up road waiting for Hayes.
He was again on base at the end of the inning.
He's getting the catching touch to get out there and go to work.
Finally throws the ball out there to second base and it comes back to pitcher as Hayes walks up there to the plate.
Hayes starts the last half of the fourth inning.
Road smooths the dirt down.
The mound walks back smoothed down in front of the slab.
Turns around gets his sign and he's winding up.
And he pitches and the hitter is in front of the ball but it's called on the ground back to stand and it's strike one.
One strike to count.
One strike to throw it again and it's a ball inside across the way.
So it's one ball and one strike on fire.
One and one.
There comes ball to a curveball outside and it's two balls and one strike on fire.
One one.
Winding up once more throws.
By a swing that a bonder down to the shortstop and comes over fast.
Gets it throws the first and Dean had to make the reaching catch way out to the left and high.
But he made the play nicely for the first out of the fourth inning.
One out of the fourth inning for the stock and looks to a white dog.
Gotcha is up there at the plate.
A swing that is a line drive right out to the shortstop will manage to scoop it up off the top of the dirt.
Just before it hits the ground and it's two out in the fourth and two out of the fourth inning for the white dog and Kennedy's at bat.
Two out of the fourth inning.
The ball back and hit road right on the foot.
Out in the right field.
Kennedy's around first base going for second base and road to still riding around the ground.
That a ball is captured by the second baseman road gets up and is living around the infield.
The ball is caught and it's a line drive.
That was a line that either hit his foot or his shin and it fell him like a blow from a club.
He reaches down and rubs his ankle and the ankle and the shin bone just above the foot.
Now Kennedy gets his jacket on and goes over to see him.
For Kennedy and Burn is over there seeing how this fellow is because it really was a knuckle dirty crack.
Start a pitcher warming up in the bullpen in a hurry in case he can't go on the crowd gives him a hand.
Boy he took a smash that time.
Mama I don't want that to hit me. My foot had gone right off with it.
The foot would have gone into the center field and the ball in the right.
He's got a nice little hand egg just watch it. No kidding. Boy he took a dirty crack that time.
Throwing a couple down there to make sure he's all right and able to continue.
He can pitch all right but boy he's going to have a great big black and blue mark and a big lump on that leg.
I'll be coming up right now. He takes a look at it for a minute now.
Paces rip right there.
Active at bat. Two out in the fourth inning.
So stands there rubbing up the ball getting ready to pitch the first one to the river.
Look back at second base and throws and right there take the good strike over the heart of the plate just above the knee.
One strike on the right flip.
Ready out there again throws and repets the ball of beauty down the right field line for another base hit.
The second ball that fellow can really run.
Coming across the plate he kicked right over and then comes back to pick it up.
He's a happy go lucky.
Coming around there and that drive the right field a single line single to right by red.
Scores Kennedy and again the white doctor in front this time score is 3 to 2.
So the first one and they cleave it takes a ball over the plate but too low one ball called.
The first base and throws and Mike gets a ball right field right there coming in fast.
The ball dropped in front of him for another base hit.
The third base and he slides in just under the noise.
They got him a third.
Bradford for some reason slowed up a second and then when he broke into his stride again he'd lost just enough time to be caught at third base.
The third hit was a looking single to right and the right that made second on it but he slowed down a second and then suddenly looked over his shoulder and decided to go to third by that time it was too late.
And we was out on a very fine throw from right field by Puccinelli who threw to Higgins at third getting him for the third up.
So it's one run three one man left on base and the last half of the fourth inning.
And the score is 3 to 2 in favor the white dot at the end of the fourth inning.

Ready now to pitch to Moses to start the fourth inning and the first pitch comes over the plate about knee high or strike one.
The two guys are lining up again the ball down third first base coach at first base gets it looks it over indicates that it's pretty well messed up and the umpire throws another ball into the game for that one.
the strike no
he takes the next one take the cut at it but
by the start of the swing and can't
and he strikes off for the first out of the fifth inning
bringing Dean to bat
Dean up there to play
first pitch to Dean is a bad ball for ball one
wide one one ball on Dean
and there's a high one wide for ball two so it's two or nothing
two balls and no strike on Dean
and he throws the next one for ball three well
he had all kinds of control to Moses now
Dean up there he hasn't been able to get one of three pitches over
so it's three or nothing
first pitch is again for
not a call ball for and so he gets a base on ball
but Dean on first base with one out of the fifth inning
and Puccinelli the right fielder is at bat
another husky fellow right-handed hitter
however he swings the first pitch in a high fly out back to second base
he's calling for the ball and gets it for the second out
that makes it to out of the fifth inning for the athletic
he's still on first base and big Bob Johnson
who braced the wind with that terrific smash and got it into the stand for a home run
in the fourth inning is up there to play

the first one hit a bounder down to Hayes and got it throws the first
Johnson was going down very hard
he was thrown out of first base with a third out
so it's no run no hit
one man left on base
in the first half of the fifth inning
and the score is still 3 to 2 in favor of the White Sox
as they come to bat in the last half of the fifth inning with Neal Hough

he was also with the A's for a little while

so it's red clip
if that's not all I don't notice any other

one strike on
strike on the new

going way way out there for a long base hit
which an elegant sport but it is put about
him by the time you recover them

and
hit and an error a single right center by

so he's on second base with nobody out of the fifth
inning and peak maneuver is at best
to watch his second base

for all one one ball called
once more and there's a strike over the heart of the plate
waste time to count it one ball and one strike
one and one
throw the guy on the head to take the wide one across the
knees with ball to count is two balls and one strike

he's down and he's got the ball

he got all set for the ball
the ball and the hitter's playing
the ball is one of the roof of
the stand above the right of the
plate is three and two three
balls and two strikes on the
door.
And to the count it's really
once more throws and it's all
right and low and it's a base

second with nobody out in the
fifth inning.
Luke Affleck is at that Luke
Affleck the fight starts short
stop up there.
Great.
I might try to bump but they
don't expect him to the infield
isn't playing for it.
Oh that it's the right as much
as he does and really hits with
runners.
No he reaches around the front
of the ball toward third base
and he's got the ball.
He can come in fast captain and
throw the first and Dean makes a
beautiful play.
Reaching around behind that
thing.
He got that ball just in the
nick of time.
So Higgins was playing pretty
deep and just barely got him but
it took a very nice play by
Dean to make it possible.
So it's one out of the fifth
inning for the white dot and now
they have runners on second and
they're going to be a hitter
winds up throws a thing get a
pop ball coming up out of the
roof of the stand over our head
a little bit to the left and
rounded down back of it hit the
ball rolling it down in there
around great building play.
What do you play right.
Why they caught that ball was
rolling down there and that
was the next one inside and low
up the ball one.
So it's one ball and one strike
on he wanted one to count and
didn't feel again right in on
the edge of the graph.
The white dot didn't feel was a
little while ago playing to cut
off any further out of the plate
if possible.
And the pitch is starting to
wind up throw Jackie swings in
a long drive to center field
Moses waiting back there both
runners are touching up.
He got to the end they start
but the other goes off the throw
comes to play to the runner
and the ball slides in safely
getting in just ahead of that
great throw from Moses.
What I mean that was a throw
coming in there has the game
leg and it's been favoring it
that injured leg quite a bit.
So one fast going as fast as he
sometimes has because he
couldn't.
And Moses made a great throw to
play and I've had to just barely
slide in under it to get into
the plate with the run to put the
ball back to hit for the two not
Tony Platt is a bad out of that
plate.
Oh throw the first one and Tony
takes a good strike over the
heart of the plate about waste
time on strike on plant watch
the fact that throws again five
take the high winning side for
the first time in a row one in
his one ball and one strike on

Now back to committee for the
continuation of the Bayford
broadcast brought to you by
permission of the Chicago White
Sox and the Philadelphia
Athletics to stimulate interest
in our national game and in
your own local team.
OK how.
Back at the ballpark for the
sixth inning Higgins at bat for
the athletic.
Count of one ball and two
strikes.
Kennedy throws Higgins hit the
ball on the right field for a
base hit.
He's got a good start on the
ball but it was through too fast
for him.
And a pinky second hit.
Besides the walk this afternoon
the foot Pagan's on first base
with nobody out in the sixth
inning for the athletic and
Frank Hayes the.
Catcher.
Is at bat.
Those one and Frank swings hit
a long drive.
Oh we down the right field line
far back in the second deck but
it bounds out and over back down
amongst the box the customers.
And it's one strike on Hayes.
Get the next one.
A terrific match the centerfield
baby comes over and ranges back
make the catch nicely.
Oh he had to be very very quick
in his judgment on that one.
But that ball was hit hard and
he raised over to his Gordon
left to right center and then
raised back a little and made the
guess just exactly right.
So it's one out of the six
inning for the athletic.
Higgins is still on first base
and knew some Lamar knew from
the.
Start stop at bat take the first
pitch for a strike over the
heart of the plate about waste
time.
Ready to pitch the first one
throw and it's a curve ball wide
and low for Paul one one ball
call.
And the pitch is teams ready
turns and throws.
The first run is back there in
time though.
Now he pitches in the hitter
swing did a bottom down.
Hey you got the flip to the
athling.
He throws the first and it's a
double play for some reason or
other knew some stopped up just
he was arriving at first base.
And I think he could have beaten
that ball and he's kicking the
dirt as he walked back out to
his position.
But I think he thought there
were two well and that that man
being forced to second.
Made it three out and very
feverish as he walks back out
there toward his position because
he knows he did come a little
bit wrong.
He might not have beaten it but
he stopped and the play was
taking so long there was a
chance that he might have beaten
that ball the first base.
Very peculiar thing but I think
explained by that one thing and
he thought already two out and
that that second base made it
three.
So it's no run one two three
out so it's no run one hit in
the sixth inning for the
Atlantic.
So remain ordered to and favor
the White Sox.
That's coming to that in the
last half of the six with Luke
Stor white dog.
That's the first man up and it's
pretty done there.
But you have to go all again
Doug we're only back and growth
dot could wind up which is still
take the curve ball inside and
look for the ball.
One ball called those late and
again.
So that is why attractive
whistle to right field right
the ball and it drops out there
for a base hit and to come to
the second base to throw
bounding on and hitting him in
the leg of the Iraq.
But you know he started over
jogging over watching for the
ball and then suddenly the last
instant the wind caught it and
blew it away from him and it
landed well out of reach and
inside the foul line also for
a two base hit sort of a wind
and sun double you might say
now burn Kennedy is up there
Kennedy at that he reaches out
but the first one toward first
base the pitcher road comes over
got this note the ball right
into the runner but again being
made a nice play on that being
really look awful good on those
kind of plays which we've heard
many first baseman say is the
toughest play that they can make
and that is the ball thrown
right into the runner and three
times the last three times a day
and once yesterday he made those
plays now the infield comes in
close again but all but Dean
playing right in close Dean is
back a little as Radcliffe
stepped up there and the first
pitch is wide and low for ball
one
on ball call
ready again throws and hitters
the ball to the left the short
top goes far to his right and
gets it and make the throw the
first time to get Radcliffe
wrist one start driving that
ball toward left field but
Newton shifted very fast go back
and get it to throw the first to
get his man now to out the
infield moves back to normal
position and Mike Levy comes
back to do still on third base
for a four to two in favor of
the white top
watches third base and pitches
and it's a strike over the
outside corner about me on strike
and the ball is thrown to the
left side of the field
throw the ball to the right
side of the field
throw the gun and it's a curve
ball wide for ball one
count is one ball and one strike
on the creeper one and one
ready once more throws and
throws the ball wide and
throws two balls and one strike
on feed it so and one
as you find again he throws
and Mike swings it about right
back and rolls the leaps into
the first and Mike is out for
the third out and road in the
right job of pitching himself
out of that ending after the
wind and sun had combined to
give Sula double at the opening
of the ending and the next man
sacrificed him to serve he was
still on third at the end of
the end no runs one hit one man
left on base in the last half of
the sixth inning and at the end
of the fix the White Sox lead
the athletics forward to now
again for up to the minute
scores and complete battery from
other cities we return to studio
in the National League in New
York the Chicago Cubs lost the

that's the road the pitcher came
to bat hit the first ball pitch
for a high fly into center field
which previous got for the first
out now with a kind of one on
one on any swing hit the
boundary down to the Nura who
has to make a one handed stop on
a bad hop there but gets the
ball and runs over to first base
to get the knee for the second
out and it's two out in the
second inning for the
athletics with Moses Wally Moses
the center fielder at bat and
they look around the boys out
there gets ready to fit now to
Wally throws and it's a fast
winning side and low for ball
one one ball called the door
door the door is banging Kennedy
throws again it is the line
drive left field and Bradford
taking it but it goes over his
head bounce against the wall
ripped up the runner pulls up a
second base easily that's what
throws the ball into halflings
and he's the double to the base
the left field wall by Moses
putting him on second base with
two out of the seventh inning
Moses on second and Dean
subdean the first base is at
bat and he looked around get
ready to fit first one up throws
and the runners on the go for
third base and slides in and he
out he slid hard into client who
had the ball and brought it down
on him and then slide it in and
he's out of the second base
and he's out of the third base
and he's caught stealing for the
third out so it's no run one hit
in the seventh inning for the
athletic and now the crowd is
standing up for the seventh
inning stretch as the white
dark come to battle the last
half of the seven you'll have
the first white dog hitter for
a four to two in favor of the
white dog roads are just
arriving out there in the
mountains a good crowd out here
today as well as a great crowd
of youngsters out of that left
field then you stand there
watching the ball thrown up
second base Johnson missed it
out there and had to take it out
into the outfield he just knocked
down he gets it throws it back
and the pitch is ready to pitch
again the heart starts to wind
up throws and you'll swing the
ball back toward his haircut
coming back that he might get to
it he didn't quite make it and
it's like one hot water to pick
up his mask and rub off the
padding gets the best of it and
back flank if he gets back up
there late he's made a good try
for that ball and it's one
strike on one strike out
throws again and not take the
ball inside across the way and
it's one and one one ball and
one strike on the
brings it the next one a high
fly to the right center Moses
waiting back there for it gets
it easily and it's one out of
the seventh in the seventh inning
for white talk and deep in all
areas of that when they're up
that plate winds up the first
one throws and takes things in a
pop like going to the right of
the plate he's also taking that
one over the fan and grabs it
down there but apparently
couldn't quite hang on to it he
crashed into the front of the
fan apparently is unheard of
walking back there made another
nice try and as a result it's
one strike on big deep one strike
on the other and a pitch of
throws again with the getting a
hard ball or two Johnson comes
up with it nicely throws the
first and it's two out of the
seven and Luke Gaffling is up
there at the plate happily about
well school is keeping again out
there and left field bullpen
Chalini putting in his
afternoon work one of the other
boys taking long work out there
with muddy rule looks like the
first pitch in a high flight a
right field right field are
coming over and still misjudges
the ball a little in the wind
and sun but manages to follow it
over far enough to get it for
the third out so it's no runs no
hits in the seventh inning for
the white talk and at the end of
the seventh inning like that
Billy the athletic before being
four to two when every minute
count you'll find that it
doesn't pay to get about gasoline
tourist traveling men people who
drive many miles a day against
time find that technical fire
chief never let them down and
best of all it costs no more
than ordinary gasoline
Dean Javidee the first baseman
is about to start the eighth
inning or Philadelphia Kennedy
throws the first one he hits it
to left field but it's all down
there and just misses one of the
warm up catches and it strikes
one strike to go Joe Morris he's
down there taking a workout
warm and somebody up warming up
to Lainey and that ball just
missed him there's ball one line
wild the count is one ball and
one strike on the one and one
is the count brings again hit a
ball back to the box happening
almost got the back of second
base but not quite and it goes
through in the center field for
a base hit single to center
field by Dean putting him on
first base nobody out in the
eighth inning and put your
knowledge the athletics right
fielders at that
you know they're prepared to
play
throws and George Wings hit a
ground ball down happily and
get the throw the haze Jackie
throws the first and it's another
double play or that white stock
infield is certainly turning in
those double plays these days
that that ball flipping around
out there in real championship
stuff or two out of the eighth
inning to be athletic and the
next man up there is Bob Johnson
the second base
consciousness that and he throws
the first one and Bob swings and
that's a high fastball inside
and it's like one right
like one
there's a ball wide and low for
the county one ball and one
strike on Johnson
one and one to go
Johnson swings the next and I
fly down back first base another
following it over the ball
territory and make the cut for
the third out
so it's no runs one hit
in the first half of the eighth
inning and the score
remains four to two in favor of
the White Sox as they come to
bat in the last half of the
eighth with Jackie Hayes the
first man at that broadcast the
White Sox Philadelphia game
comes to direct and commit to
park home of the White Sox
Philadelphia game and the
White Sox is the first
baseball game in Chicago as a
presentation of your
neighborhood technical dealer
driven on a technical fire
chief gasoline broadcast comes
with the permission of the
White Sox and the athletic
stimulate interest in our
national game and in your own
local baseball team WCFL
Chicago
and the Red Sox are standing
there waiting to take his turn
at bat to talk the eighth
inning
and this is a warm up there goes
the ball again second base and
we'll be ready to go now in the
last half of the eighth
he's way better to play as road
was not getting ready to pitch
to him wind up
throws and Jackie reached out
and started pushing the bottom
out toward first base he can get
the ball and races for the bag
he's beaten up for a base hit
he couldn't make any other play
on that ball but that he started
for the base and realized that
the pitcher couldn't get it so
he raised up to his right
gadget and roads wasn't anywhere
in the game so he could get it
and he got the base so Dean
without losing any time on the
play didn't hesitate at all
race for the bag but gave a fast
man beat him and it's a base hit
with Jackie his second of the
ball game came on first base
with nobody out in the eighth
inning and Tony Pied is a fast
but runs up on the first one
don't try to hit it to right
pitch came in high and inside
for a ball two and the county
is doing nothing to ball and no
strike on fire
again and Tony swings in a line
drive and the shortstop leads
behind the air to grab the ball
and then holds it when he gets
back to first base so quickly
that to make a throw would be to
take a chance on an error the
ball was hard hit so hard hit
that he's who had made a break
the second so where it was going
and hadn't had time to get far
away from the base by the time
it was caught so he was able to
get back and so he's still on
first base one out in the eighth
inning and looks to bite the
catcher is a bet or old swings
around ready to pitch the first
one throws and looks like they
drive out into right center for
a base hit going on out there
at the right field going through
to the wall.
Hey it's around third base on his
way home and still is pulling up
a third base he makes the turn
but the ball is being run in
center fielder race up to the
wall and stumbled and fell on
that incline of the side out
there at the far end of the
scoreboard but that triple by
school hit the wall that is
bounded out as far as the wall
landing against it at the far
end of the right field scoreboard
and it's Luke second extra base
hit of the game.
First one going to him by virtue
of wind and sun and it drives
home he's with a run that gives
the white dog to lead by a score
of five to and bring Vernon
Kennedy the white dog pitcher to
that goes out there gets ready to
pitch the first one.
Then throws and Kennedy hits the
ball into left center for a base
hit his second hit of the game
and it scores so easily from
third base where the second run
in the inning and the white dog
picked from the game Kennedy's
other hit was that terrific
smash off road him and found it
out in the right field for a
two base hit and he scored right
after that on red his finger.
Now the river is up there to
play one out two runs home in
the eighth inning and the first
pitch is inside and blow the
ball one stocky left handed
hitter.
He's started to pitch his
warming up in the right field
both and both of them
right handers throws another one
and Kennedy hit the down right
field line for a good faith that
I mean Brad Pitt that Kennedy
is around second base ball is
coming over there to second base
and it's bound up rather
peculiarly do some not to the
ground and time to hold right
to the second and Kennedy
upstairs to double down the
right field line by red clip
and it looks though is going to
be a change in pitchers road
turns and starts for the club
house and Earl Mack son of
Connie Mack and one of the
coaches the club walks up there
to tell the umpire who the new
pitcher is going to be leaving
the roster you George leave
the draw.
Mr. George very often to Rick
very often to Rick.
He didn't do very well on that
one.
Listen I didn't know he was with
this club.
We used to call him live and be
when he was with him at the same
fellow he used to be with the
boss he isn't even in the
program here can't tell the
players without a scorecard.
This case you can't tell this
one with one again.
He's the right hander.
That's very much like the same
boy who some years ago was with
Boston and Washington whether it
is or not I'm not sure he's been
up the international league and
going pretty well lately.
And he's finishing his warm up
out there in the mound.
We've got your hey there's
previous week take his dirt is
back like dark now have runners
on second and third one off two
runs already home in the eighth
inning.
I'll fix it to in favor of the
stock and clearly finally stepped
up there is umpire Quinn got the
plate and the infielders got to
their position again the
infielders come into the end of
the infield graph try to cut off
any run at the plate if possible
to throw and give it take the
fast strike over the outside
corner across the way one strike
on David winding up one more
throw and Mike takes a high one
wide for Paul one count is one
ball and one strike on David one
and one winds up again throws
and Mike swings it a slow fall
to the left of the plate waiting
back here is hot and he grabs
the ball on that high bounce
which is over top of the back
one black when we're already
given the catcher another ball
to put in play our pockets that
one has fit for further use and
fever just back up there once
more like that runners on second
and third Mike starts to swing
at the next one stop the ball
hits the bat and goes Paul back
to the stand he was pulling away
from it to keep from finishing
his swing because the pitch was
high on inside and in pulling
away from it the ball hit the
bat and went out of the stand
and he's got a little bit of
a hard time getting hot walking
back to get it one ball and two
strikes let me throw it again
and Mike swings in a slow
boundary in the infield third
baseman Higgins comes in fast
get the ball and throws the
first nothing created by an
eyelash over there on a very
very close play and it scored
one run Kennedy scored easily
and Radcliffe went to third on
Pivots infield out and Higgins
incidentally had to make a
second run and he nipped him by
an eyelash that's three runs
this inning white dark leading
me athletic seven to two
Radcliffe still on third base
throughout and the mule hop at
bat the first pitch mule is a
wide one low or ball one goes
once more for a strike over the
corner waist high and it's one
and two one ball and two strikes
one to go hit it the next one a
bother out back to second base
shortstop Newton get the throw
the first and Hoss is out for
the third out ending the eighth
in the eighth inning the white
dark said three runs four hits
and one man left on the score at
the end of the eighth inning the
white got seven Philadelphia
athletic to I said before ladies

some mail out meant to today
that received the fans who have
gone over the scoring system that
we have in the text book scorebook
that you can obtain so easily that
the technical company is giving
away with great pleasure that
system in there is very complete
more so than a lot of systems
that we have in the text book
that you can get those
naturally there's some certain
little tricks that we have that
you can hardly put in a system
because everybody has certain of
those different and if you want
to know I have any questions
about the scoring drop me a line
I'll either give it on the air
possibly if I can there aren't
too many questions do it by mail
so that you can have all the go
remember to get this book with
room for 17 games a scoring
system the stock and top rosters
and the technical station after
request card fill it out all the
ask for your name and address
mail it it's already addressed to
me put a one pence stamp on it
and mail it and you'll get your
book now to start tonight sending
Higgins is back and the first
pitch comes by why or call one
on both all and there's all too
wide across the knees making it
two and nothing on Frank Higgins
known as Mickey Higgins the
athletic third base who already
has a walk to hit in this ball
game by through the ball out of
play that was being used there
and the next pitch comes right
inside all three didn't do much
good did it.
County three and nothing three
balls and no strike.
Here comes the first strike
catch at the inside corner just
above the knees around the
count three and one three balls
and one strike and then he winds
up again throws four ball four
wide and low and Higgins now has
a perfect day at bat with two
walks and two things.
Thank you John first base.
Nobody out of the ninth inning
for the athletics and Frank
Hayes the catcher is a fast
haze up there to play.
And if you throw the first one
and he takes a strike a fastball
over the outside corner about
one strike on the one strike on
Hayes he thinks the next one
hit in the left field for a
good play.
They get the first is stopping a
second on the athletics and
started what might turn into a
serious rally here.
They have runners on first and
second with nobody out of the
ninth inning and knew some of
our news them known as whitey
knew from the athletic shortstop
and the little blonde hair right
handed hitters at bat.
You take the first pitch for
strike with the heart of the
plate about waste time on strike
to go and get her going to come
up here now.
That in place of the pitcher
following this man hadn't
spotted quite yet who it is.
Probably me make the next one
about it back to the box it goes
on in the center field for a
base hit one run is coming into
the plate and they let the ball
in the center field and as soon
as the ball goes to the pitch
started to get the ball and
deflected it so that it changed
the course enough and the catch
couldn't be it.
It hit his leg and bounded back
to the game letting the other
runners go to second and third.
Now Kennedy is really in the
spot.
The last instant Kennedy who had
his hand up tried to pull it
down let it go.
Apparently at the catcher's
call but he deflected it so that
he could get it.
He can score and he's went to
second and not just what they
call that error and I'm not sure
we're trying to find out from
the way not all the official
score was back from his vacation
then me make batting for Liz and
the ball down to halflings and
it's thrown out at first base
and then he's going on the play
to give the athletics to run
this thing and make the score
seven to four and the head of
the batting order Luke Finney is
at that taking the first pitch
inside and go for four one it
dropped out of the school club
that he hit the next one a high
fly coming down fall back third
base five followed over there and
make the cut for the second out
that makes it to all of the
night that he threw out of the
night that he could be out
of the ball and Moses is a
plate waiting now and the first
pitch hitters like the next day
I fly also following down back
third base five following it
over and make the catch right in
front of the fan for the third
out and the white card when the
ball game seven to four the
you say they think of the way
that that was an error on the
throw jar well that's what I
figured it probably was but we
want to make sure that that
error that let them in go to
second and third is given to the
center fielder on the throw
baby Johnny's throw and that's
the way that was for now in the
ninth inning the athletic had to
run to hit was one error and one
man left on base and the score
is seven to four white box making
seven run 13 hit one error
they had eight men left on the
base the athletic had four runs
nine hit two hours they had
come in the ground base and the
game an hour and forty five
minutes winning pitcher Kennedy
and the losing pitcher roll
summary again for the benefit of
those who keep all those things
in the scorebook and the text
with them technical scorebook
white dot seven runs 13 hits one
error with eight men left on base
the athletic four runs nine hits
two hours and seven men left on
the game an hour and forty five

Saturday and a double hitter on
Sunday and the double head of the
first game as usual.
Sergeant one third.
See you on a lot of those days.
But if you're not out here why we
hope to be talking to you.
But that's all for now.
And speaking for George as well
as myself.
How about a good afternoon from
from the depart and we return to
the studio right now.
Speaking to you from the studio
ladies and gentlemen we bring you
a summary of the other baseball
games that have been played this
afternoon first in the National
League in New York.
Please follow up.
Not your road work.
It has the stamina the quick
getaway the reserve of extra
power and speed for the open
stretches that make sluggish
cars look like part of the
thing.
Technical fire chief is emergency
five gasoline.
That means fire chief meets
rigid federal specifications for
emergency use.
It's fast firing crowded with
action fill up with a tank full
of fire.
Then try out your car.
You'll find that in response to
the same pressure on the
accelerator to which you're
accustomed your car will step
out faster and that you'll get
more enjoyable miles from each
gallon.
Reason enough why more tourists
buy technical fire chief
gasoline than any other single
brand.
Remember when you get a filling
of fire chief at the technical
station near you you'll be
getting more for your money.
So drive with technical
and say your neighborhood
technical service station has
brought to this broadcast
direct from Comiskey Park by
permission of the Chicago
White Sox and the Philadelphia
Athletics to stimulate
interest in our national game
and in your own local team.
Redfall are speaking for the
Texas company.
Invite you to tune in tomorrow
afternoon at two forty five for
another baseball broadcast with
how to up net the microphone
and whenever you hear the
siren and bells think of
technical.
