00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:15,000
The New York Yankees faced the Detroit Tigers for a Thursday afternoon game at Tigers Stadium on April 11th, 1974.

3
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:21,000
The Yankees were coached by Bill Virdon, and Mel Stottlemeyer would make the second start of what would be his final season.

4
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,000
The Tigers were coached by Ralph Houk, who was leading an aging team.

5
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:33,000
Both Al Kaline and Norm Cash were in the final year of their career, and Jim Northrup, Bill Frehan, and Mickey Lolich would retire in the next few years.

6
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:59,000
This audio recording is from the New York Radio broadcast featuring announcers Phil Rizzuto and Frank Messer.

7
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:07,000
The Yankees were coached by Coleman, making his second start of the year. He had no decision in the season opener against Baltimore.

8
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:17,000
Big right-hander, basically a breaking ball pitcher. The ball's buttered foul down the third base side, and it snowballs and two strikes on white.

9
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:23,000
A couple years ago, Colman came up with a fork ball, and he gave the Yankees fits with it for a while.

10
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:33,000
Colman has won 8 and lost 13 against the Yankees, and he's won 5 and lost 6 since becoming a Tiger in 1971.

11
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:41,000
And the 0-2 pitch to white hit him, and it'll go to first base. Roy White hit with an old ball, two-strike pitch.

12
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,000
I think he tried to brush him back, but he got it in a little too far.

13
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:52,000
He sure did, and that's going to make Ralph Hauk very unhappy, and Colman, too, a head 0-2, and he's kicking the dirt out of that mound now.

14
00:01:52,000 --> 00:02:02,000
So white leads it off with the Yankees, starting the ball game off by getting hit on the right hip-flop pitch, and that'll bring in Mike Hegan, the first baseman.

15
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,000
Now, the Yankees have tried to run on freehand early. He's throwing them out so far. Let's see.

16
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:17,000
Pitch to Hegan has fouled back. In the past, freehand has had trouble with his right shoulder, but he cuts down two Yankees trying to steal in the opener on Tuesday.

17
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:24,000
Roy White, an excellent baserunner. No ball is going to strike on Mike Hegan.

18
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:33,000
Nobody out white with the lead from first base. It was set by Colman. And the throw there. White back easily.

19
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:39,000
Hegan is 4-12 so far this year. He's batting 3-33. He's picked up a couple of RBIs.

20
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:48,000
Now, the set. And the 0-1 pitch. Breaking ball. On the outside corner, it's no balls and two strikes.

21
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:57,000
So far, Colman's only thrown one ball, and everything else has been a strike, and that one ball hit white. It was no 2-pitch.

22
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Trying to move White back off the plate, and he got him on the left hip, and Roy leads from first.

23
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:11,000
The set. Here's the 0-2 pitch to Mike Hegan. Swung on it on the ground to first base. Cash has it. Goes to second for one. Back to first.

24
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:25,000
It's time. Double play by the Tigers. A 3-6-3 double play. Cash to Brinkman. Back to Cash. And they're two down.

25
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:32,000
Here's Thurman Mutsen.

26
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Mutsen batting an even 400 on the area. 6-15. Home run, three runs batted in. That double play cleaned the bases.

27
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:45,000
Nobody on now with two outs.

28
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:51,000
On deck for the Yankees, Bobby Mercer. Mutsen taking a lot of time getting ready.

29
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:58,000
Curve ball. Moves him back off the plate. No balls. One ball and no strikes.

30
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:05,000
Tigers have Rodriguez at third. Brinkman's a shortstop. Sutherland at second. And to Cash at first.

31
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:10,000
The 1-0 pitch. The breaking ball. Pulled foul outside of third.

32
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:17,000
Willie Horton's in left. Mickey Stanley in center. Jim Northrop in right.

33
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,000
No freehand catching. Joe Coleman pitching.

34
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:28,000
Of all the strike on Mutsen, two out, nobody on. We're just underway. Top of the first, no score yet. From Tiger Stadium.

35
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:34,000
1-1 pitch. Swung on. Hit on the ground to first base. One hopper to Cash. He'll take it himself. He has to hurry.

36
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:41,000
And he just beats Mutsen to the bag. No one cares. They get themselves. They're forgetting that Mutsen really huckles down the line.

37
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:48,000
And he just beats Mutsen to the bag by a whisker. Over the Yankees. And the first, no runs, no hits.

38
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,000
It was a hit matter, but he was wiped out for the double play. So nobody was left on base.

39
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:57,000
We're going to the bottom half of the first inning. The Yankees nothing and the Tigers coming up.

40
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,000
Martin Luther King.

41
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,000
William Penn.

42
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,000
A. Philip Randolph.

43
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,000
Harriet Beecher Stowe.

44
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:27,000
Distinguished names. Names we recognize as belonging to the community of men and women dedicated to peace and nonviolence.

45
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:36,000
And behind each leader there were, and are, anonymous thousands working to bring about a better life.

46
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:42,000
It's something for us to remember when we think about violence in the daily news.

47
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:51,000
We know that violence is in all of us. So is God. And that makes nonviolence a realizable goal.

48
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:55,000
The community of God. Make it your way.

49
00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:01,000
This message is brought to you by Religion in American Life in cooperation with this station.

50
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:10,000
Bill Sotomayor just finishes one of our throws into Fairman Mutsen. We're about ready to get underway at the bottom of the first.

51
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:19,000
The Yankees did not score on the top of the first. Then the Tigers will send in Ed Brinkman, Aurelio Rodriguez, and Jim Northrop against Sotomayor.

52
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:23,000
This is Mel's second star of the season. He beat Cleveland in the opener 6-1.

53
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:28,000
And he just missed his 41st career shutout in the ninth inning.

54
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:34,000
So Sotomayor would certainly like to get that here this afternoon as he deals to the right hand of Hiddink Brinkman.

55
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,000
A breaking ball that's inside.

56
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:43,000
I think we said then that Sotomayor's 40 shutouts were the most by an active American League pitcher.

57
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:49,000
And we forgot, of course, about Juan Marichal, although Marichal got his 52 shutouts in the national league.

58
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:56,000
But Juan now, of course, with the Boston Red Sox. So technically Marichal has more shutouts.

59
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,000
Too high. Two balls and no strikes on Brinkman.

60
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:09,000
Sotomayor's 346th game as a Yankee. That ties in with Herb Pinnock for seventh place on the Yankees all-time list.

61
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:14,000
Brinkman takes down Low with three balls and no strikes.

62
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:22,000
Of course, Whitey Ford pitched more games than any other Yankee pitcher. 498.

63
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,000
And he's number one on the list.

64
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:30,000
There's a strike. Three balls and a strike to Brinkman leading off with the Tigers. Bottom half, the first inning, no score.

65
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:36,000
Yankees trying to win their fifth straight game of the year.

66
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,000
Sotomayor rocks back and deals a 3-1 pitch to Brinkman.

67
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,000
Get in the air to center field. Mercer going back. Still going.

68
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,000
He's there now. He's got it. One down.

69
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:52,000
Sotomayor coming back from a 3-0 count and getting Brinkman to fly deep to Mercer in center field.

70
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,000
That was a score from New York. In fact, no score because it's nothing-nothing.

71
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:01,000
Cardinals and the Mets in the first game with doubleheader. No score after an inning of play.

72
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,000
Pretty good pitching duel there, just as it is here, huh, Bill? Gibson and Sievers?

73
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,000
Yeah, they might play that game in about an hour.

74
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:14,000
Here's a really old Rodriguez, the third baseman. Right-handed batter.

75
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:19,000
He takes a breaking ball for a strike.

76
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,000
On deck, Jim Northrup, the right fielder.

77
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:27,000
Sotomayor gets a new ball, turns his back to the mound, rubs it up.

78
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:33,000
I'm reading about those baseballs today. They're made in Haiti. Yep.

79
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:38,000
And it's cowhide. Now it's to the horse side, right? Right.

80
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,000
Breaking ball is hit in the air to right field. Bloomberg moving back.

81
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,000
He stops now. Andrick. And he's got it. Two down.

82
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:49,000
Rodriguez going to Ron Bloomberg in right field.

83
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,000
I had a little article in the financial section of the Detroit paper.

84
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:59,000
You know how many baseballs that the major leagues use during a season?

85
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:04,000
No idea. Over 300,000 baseballs.

86
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,000
Lot of cowhide.

87
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:15,000
Here's Northrup. Takes outside a ball.

88
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:22,000
Northrup for left-handed batter. Two out, nobody on. We're at the bottom of the first, no score.

89
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,000
Nettles in close at third. Sotomayor kicks and deals.

90
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,000
Misses inside. Two balls, no strikes.

91
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,000
Nettles at third. Mason at short. Michael at second. Hegan at first.

92
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:39,000
White Mercer and Ron Bloomberg in the outfield reading from left to right.

93
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:43,000
Thurman Mutsen doing the catching. Mel Sotomayor has his sign.

94
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:47,000
Rocks back. And the 2-0 pitch to Northrup. Swung on it on the ground. A short stop.

95
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,000
Dug out there by Jim Mason. Fine throw the first in plenty of time.

96
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,000
And Northrup is out. So Sotomayor gets the Tigers out 1-2-3.

97
00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:03,000
And after one, score. Yankees nothing. The Tigers nothing.

98
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:10,000
When is a loan not a loan? When it's cash from protective loan that you can spend for any good spring reason at all.

99
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,000
See the friendly courteous folks at protective loan now.

100
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:18,000
With Protective's confidential one-day service, your spring fix-up money problems will disappear.

101
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:22,000
Remember, protective loan is your friend with money to lend.

102
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:28,000
There's a convenient office in Uptown Albany at 215 Central Avenue near Robin or 603 Second Avenue in North Troy.

103
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:33,000
Manan's at 291 Broadway and 620 Columbia Turnpike East Greenbush.

104
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:44,000
Scorch fans meet daily at Jack's Place right here at QBK for the most extensive sports coverage in the Capital District.

105
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:48,000
Along with the QBK music, I'll bring you a sports report every hour.

106
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:56,000
Features from Maury Crumble of United Press, baseball scores, the feature race of the day from Aqueduct, and starting April 18th Saratoga News with Tom Johnson.

107
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:02,000
I'm Jack Hoffke. Join us all each day from 3 to 7 right here at WQBK AM and FM, Wetzler.

108
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:10,000
Okay, William, we're ready to go again.

109
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:15,000
And we're waiting on Bobby Mercer to come out for the Yankees.

110
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,000
Here comes Bobby. Bobby a little slow getting out of the dugout.

111
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:25,000
The Yankees will send up their left-handed hitters, their power hitters, Mercer, Bloomberg, and Nettles to face Joe Coleman here.

112
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:34,000
In the top half of the second inning, there's no score yet.

113
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:47,000
Mercer on the air batting a.385. He's 5 for 13 with a run batted in.

114
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:51,000
He's been walked five times this year.

115
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,000
So they're very careful with it.

116
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,000
Now we're ready to go and Coleman's first pitch.

117
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,000
It's on the outside corner for strike.

118
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:03,000
The outfield and the infield swung around toward right field for Mercer.

119
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:07,000
Leading off for the Yankees, top half of the second inning.

120
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,000
Coleman's 0-1 pitch.

121
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:13,000
This is outside, 1-1, Joe working on the outside part of the plate.

122
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,000
325 feet here down the right field line.

123
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,000
It's a double-deck stance.

124
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:22,000
The top deck juts out over the field so actually it's shorter.

125
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,000
370 to right center, 440 dead center.

126
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,000
Swung and fouled off on the third base side.

127
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,000
Little number to Dick Houser, the third base coach.

128
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,000
He inspects the ball and gives it back to Coleman.

129
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,000
Houser coaching a third for the Yankees.

130
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:42,000
Elston Howard coaching it first.

131
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,000
A ball and two strikes on Mercer.

132
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:52,000
Coleman with an excellent fork ball. Ball goes down and away from a left-handed hitter.

133
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,000
The 1-2 pitch to Mercer. There it is.

134
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,000
Hit on the ground to second base.

135
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,000
Sutherland's up with it, throws to the pitcher covering in time.

136
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:04,000
Norm Kay started to get that ball but Sutherland, the second baseman, called him off.

137
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:09,000
And Gary Sutherland, the second baseman, picked it up and threw to Coleman covering.

138
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:18,000
So Mercer is out, 4-1, one down, and Ron Bloomberg is the batter.

139
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:25,000
Bloomberg, 4 for 10 this year, that's Neiman 400, has a run battered in.

140
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:30,000
Two of those four hits against the left-hander, Tom Hilvendorf, the Cleveland Indians.

141
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:34,000
Boomer takes outside for ball.

142
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:38,000
On deck, Greg Nettles, one out and nobody on.

143
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,000
Top of the second, no score.

144
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:45,000
Curve ball misses outside, it's two balls, those strikes.

145
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:54,000
Coleman really working away from the Yankee left-handed hitters.

146
00:13:54,000 --> 00:14:00,000
There's a pitch on the outside corner, it's 2-1.

147
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:04,000
Well, Reitz hit a home run for the Cardinals.

148
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:09,000
Nobody on. As Bloomberg takes outside, it's 3-1.

149
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:14,000
So the Cardinals lead the Mets 1-0 with the Mets batting in the...

150
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,000
Cardinals might still be batting in the top of the second.

151
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,000
Anyway, it's 1-0 Cardinals over the Mets.

152
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:24,000
Down low, ball four, Bloomberg walks.

153
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:28,000
Bloomberg, the first base, with one out here, the top of the second,

154
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,000
and the batter will be Greg Nettles, the Yankee third baseman.

155
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:37,000
Nettles batting 2-31 so far, he's three for 13.

156
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,000
Two home runs, three runs batted in.

157
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,000
Left-handed batter, Bill Sudeikis moves into the on-deck circle.

158
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:48,000
Bloomberg with a short lead at first, he's held there by Norm Cash.

159
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:52,000
Nettles takes a fast ball on the outside corner for strikes.

160
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:56,000
Coleman isn't giving in to the Yankee left-handed hitters,

161
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,000
he's keeping that ball on the outside part of the plate.

162
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,000
Now Nettles hit a home run in the opener against Cleveland,

163
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,000
out in the left center.

164
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:13,000
Down low, scooped up by Bill Freehand, it's 1-1.

165
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,000
It's 365 feet to the left center here at Tiger Stadium,

166
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,000
340 down the left field line.

167
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:23,000
Center field, the deepest part of the park, it's 440 feet there,

168
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,000
as Coleman sets.

169
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,000
Throws the first base, they almost got Bloomberg.

170
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:34,000
Coleman was leaning towards second, and he doled back in safely.

171
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,000
Ron Bloomberg really leaning towards second base,

172
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:42,000
had to dive back in and had to tag by Norm Cash.

173
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:47,000
Now Coleman wants another sign from his catcher Bill Freehand.

174
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:51,000
Bloomberg now with a little shorter lead at first, he's checked by Coleman.

175
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:55,000
The 1-1 pitch, swung on, popped up, up behind first base in short right field.

176
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,000
In foul territory now, the second baseman Southerman back out there,

177
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:02,000
and he's got it.

178
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:06,000
So Nettles just missing a fastball, fouls out to the second baseman,

179
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:10,000
Gary Southerman, for out number two, Bloomberg still at first,

180
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:17,000
and that will bring in the Yankees designated hitter, Bill Sudeikis.

181
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:21,000
Sudeikis a switch hitter, and so far this year he's batting at 286.

182
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:28,000
He's four for 14 with two runs batted in.

183
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:34,000
Now the set by Coleman, and the pitch to Sudeikis, down low ball.

184
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,000
Gene Michael moving into the on deck circle.

185
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:42,000
Two men out, Ron Bloomberg at first base, no score with a top half to second inning.

186
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,000
The Yankees playing the Tigers, the Yankees in first place in the East,

187
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:50,000
have won four and lost none.

188
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,000
No throw the first, Bloomberg is back.

189
00:16:53,000 --> 00:17:00,000
Coleman with a good move over the first base.

190
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,000
Now the set by the tall right-hander, there goes Bloomberg, the pitch is Luke Fowl,

191
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:11,000
down the left field line, hits on a tarp and bounces back into the foul territory.

192
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:17,000
Well the countdown, one and one on Bill Sudeikis.

193
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:25,000
Bloomberg off and running with the pitch, they have to go back to first base.

194
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:35,000
Raining just a bit harder here at Tiger Stadium, forecast for rain, temperature in the 50s.

195
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:39,000
Now the set, Bloomberg leads.

196
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:46,000
Coleman takes a long look over there, then throws the first base, Ron is back.

197
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:51,000
Yankee designated hitters are five for 15.

198
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,000
One-one pitch, swung on and missed.

199
00:17:54,000 --> 00:18:04,000
One and two on Sudeikis, through a fastball buy-in.

200
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,000
Yankees are one-four, lost none, they're in first place.

201
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,000
The Brewers are one-two and lost one, they're a game and a half out.

202
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:15,000
Baltimore is one, East Baltimore is put four.

203
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,000
Pitch to Sudeikis is swung on and missed, struck him out, got him on a forkball.

204
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,000
That's all for the Yankees in the second.

205
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,000
No runs, no hits, there was a walk and a man left on base.

206
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,000
We're going to the bottom half of second inning.

207
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,000
Yankees nothing, Tigers nothing.

208
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,000
The people never thought of me as much of a lover.

209
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:37,000
They think of Cascio Blanca instead of Casanova.

210
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,000
They don't know the real me.

211
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,000
I can fall in love too.

212
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,000
In fact, I fell in love with my first love.

213
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,000
We met at the bar.

214
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,000
I couldn't wait to get my hands on her.

215
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:51,000
I walked over to her, I picked her up and then I knocked her down.

216
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,000
She was the best glass of beer I ever had.

217
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,000
It was draft beer, fresh, smooth, clean.

218
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:01,000
And ever since I can't get draft beer out of my mind.

219
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:07,000
So now I get real draft beer out of a can, a can of Peel's real draft.

220
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:11,000
If you want a beer you can fall in love with, try Peel's real draft.

221
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:15,000
It's just as fresh and smooth and clean as the kind I used to drink.

222
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:22,000
Now that I've discovered Peel's real draft, I'm so happy it's driving me insane.

223
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:29,000
Peel's real draft and I don't feel you the same.

224
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:33,000
Peel Brothers, we're in Massachusetts.

225
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:43,000
Now we're talking about Mel Stablamaya starting his 346th game.

226
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,000
When you think of Whitey Ford, 498 games, Bill.

227
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,000
That's something.

228
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:53,000
That's a lot of pitches. Yep.

229
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:58,000
Whitey's number one on the Yankee list, right? Yep.

230
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,000
Here's number one on the Tiger list, Al Kaline.

231
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:07,000
Kaline starting his 23rd season in a Tiger uniform, right handed batter leading off against Ottelmeyer.

232
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:13,000
Bottom of the second and no score. Al takes inside a ball.

233
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:17,000
Ralph Hauke said this fella will not put a glove on this year.

234
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,000
He's just going to swing the bat, nothing else.

235
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,000
He'll be the designated hitter all year long for the Tigers.

236
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:35,000
Breaking ball is too low to Kaline, two balls, no strikes.

237
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,000
Now looking for a side, he's got it now.

238
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,000
Rocks back and the 2-0 pitch to Kaline.

239
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,000
Swung on it on the ground, in the hole, base hit left field.

240
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:49,000
Fast nettles, fast naces, bites in, gets the throws back in the second base.

241
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:55,000
So Kaline leads off the second inning for the Tigers by singling sharply in the hole between the third base,

242
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,000
the nettles, and the shortstop bases.

243
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:04,000
He's on it first base and that'll bring in Willie Horton, the left fielder for the Tigers.

244
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:08,000
Horton the right handed batter.

245
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:12,000
Batting and even two under the spring. He's four for 20.

246
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,000
He did two home runs already though.

247
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:20,000
They were both bases empty home runs because he only has two RBIs.

248
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,000
Strong, Willie Horton.

249
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,000
They play him to pull on the left side of the infield.

250
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,000
Mason way over in the hole at shortstop.

251
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:33,000
Nettles deep behind the bag at third as Sadelmeier sets and deals to Horton.

252
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:40,000
Tried it on the outside corner for strikes.

253
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:51,000
Dick Kuzuski, the Tiger first base coach says something to Horton.

254
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:58,000
And says something to Al Kaline as Kaline leads from first.

255
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,000
Set by Sadelmeier and the pitch.

256
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,000
Down the dirt a sinker. It's one and one.

257
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,000
On deck Norm Cash. No score with the bottom half of the second inning.

258
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:12,000
Kaline at first base. He let off his England inning by singling the left field.

259
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:19,000
And the count. One and one on Willie Horton.

260
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,000
Horton stands up even with the plate.

261
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:26,000
And the pitch to it. Swung on. Hit and line drive. The shortstop comes out of the glove.

262
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,000
Mason gets the ball in that field. Throws the second in time to force Kaline.

263
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,000
That ball was right to Mason at shortstop. A shot.

264
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:38,000
I think he tried to get the ball out of the glove quickly to try to double Kaline at first base.

265
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,000
And the ball came out of the glove. That's exactly what happened Bill.

266
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,000
You could see him take his eye and take a look at Kaline.

267
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,000
And that could have been very embarrassing.

268
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,000
It turned out that Kaline had to turn around and go back to first.

269
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:54,000
And then he couldn't get the second in time. So the Yankees got a big break there.

270
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,000
There's one out now. Horton on it first.

271
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:00,000
He's been playing behind him in the batters Norm Cash. The Tiger first base.

272
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,000
Left handed batter with good power.

273
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:07,000
The pitch to Cash. Outside of ball.

274
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,000
No score. We're at the bottom of the second.

275
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,000
One out, one on for the Tigers. That's Horton at first base.

276
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,000
Yankees got a break there though. Horton's on instead of Kaline.

277
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:19,000
Kaline I think a little faster than Horton on the bases.

278
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,000
Now the set. And the one-oh pitch.

279
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:29,000
On the outside corner. It's one and one.

280
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,000
Yankee outfield playing Cash to pull.

281
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,000
Bloomberg deep in right field near the line.

282
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,000
Mercer over in right center.

283
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,000
And Roy White playing a left center.

284
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:43,000
So there's a lot of room down the left field line.

285
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,000
Enfield also swung around toward the right side.

286
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:50,000
One-one pitch to Cash. Chain jump.

287
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,000
And it's now been to the Tiger dugout.

288
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,000
And Cash, the chip fell off Cash's bat and went down the first base line.

289
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,000
Well he's got one of those bats built with that hollow in the top.

290
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:00,000
I thought that wasn't allowed.

291
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,000
Well those are the Japanese bats.

292
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,000
And I think last year Lou Brock started that.

293
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,000
And evidently it's legal this year.

294
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:11,000
They wouldn't let Chubb Feeney, the president of the United States League,

295
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:16,000
disallow that for a while. And evidently now they can use them.

296
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:21,000
Telling the Perls they're using that thing. They just chipped out.

297
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,000
One and two on Cash with one out.

298
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,000
Horton leading from first.

299
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,000
And the pitch.

300
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,000
Swung on one hopper to Michael.

301
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,000
Throw him out on the right field.

302
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,000
Around second base is Willie Horton.

303
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,000
Takes him to third and he'll make it there.

304
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,000
And Cash holds it first.

305
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,000
And we'll see here in a moment how they score that.

306
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:43,000
That was the one hopper that just chipped under Michael's glove

307
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,000
and went under him and out on the right field.

308
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,000
And it's a base hit for Norm Cash.

309
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,000
Boy that's really a gift for Cash.

310
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,000
Perfect double play ball.

311
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:56,000
Now it's base to play at home.

312
00:24:56,000 --> 00:25:02,000
Tigers now runners at first and third only one out.

313
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,000
And here's Nicky Stanley, the center fielder.

314
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:13,000
Nicky's low to the infield back looking for twos.

315
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:17,000
No score yet. Bottom of the second.

316
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,000
It's a second base hit off Sodomar.

317
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,000
Both of them got in this inning.

318
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,000
K-line let off by a singling to Lethfield.

319
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,000
He was forced to second.

320
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,000
Here's the pitch now to Stanley.

321
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:34,000
Call strike a slider on the outside corner.

322
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:38,000
Sodomar would certainly like either a strikeout or a pop-up here.

323
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:44,000
Maybe a nice little soft round ball to the short stuff.

324
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,000
It started to.

325
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,000
Here's the set now.

326
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,000
Runners are checked and the 0-1 pitch.

327
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,000
House to third.

328
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,000
Up with it is Nittles, the second for one, back to first.

329
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,000
It's time for a double play.

330
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,000
Big Nittles starting to five, four to three double play.

331
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,000
And the Yankees get out of the inning.

332
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,000
For the Tigers, no runs on two hits.

333
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:10,000
There were no Yankees errors and there were two men left on base.

334
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:17,000
At the end of two, it's the Yankees nothing and the Tigers nothing.

335
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,000
A processing center in New York City where clothing and goods are collected,

336
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:25,000
packaged and stored should disaster strike.

337
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:29,000
The Nicaragua earthquake, for instance, then you get a subsurge of clothing.

338
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:33,000
Or the Phrogan earthquake or Bangladesh or any places like that.

339
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:37,000
The warehouse is operated by Catholic Relief Services.

340
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:41,000
The concept is that we get staff, we get food and water for the disaster team

341
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,000
and then we get supplies.

342
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,000
We get it all out at once.

343
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:48,000
We have shortwave radio equipment, transceivers to communicate among the team.

344
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:53,000
The center functions on a daily basis, sending food, clothing and medicines

345
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,000
where they're needed.

346
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,000
This is the fastest way to get it there.

347
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,000
We'll just ship it commercially to...

348
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:02,000
Catholic Relief Services responds quickly to the needs of people

349
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:06,000
through disaster relief activities and helps the overseas poor

350
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:07,000
the year round.

351
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:12,000
Support CRS through the American Catholic Overseas Aid Fund

352
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,000
and the Empire State Bank, New York 1001.

353
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,000
We're ready to go on a moment's notice.

354
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,000
This is the New York Yankee Baseball Network.

355
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:25,000
Let's pause for station identification.

356
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:29,000
This is WQBK and WQBK-FR-Mensler.

357
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,000
There you will find me, John Watson in John's World

358
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:36,000
from 11 to 3 weekdays and 11 to 4 on Saturday.

359
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,000
Gene Michael leading off of the Yankees.

360
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:46,000
Top of the third, he takes outside a ball.

361
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,000
Over to the score again that inning.

362
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,000
Because of that double play, it was no runs on two hits, no errors

363
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,000
and only one man left on base for the Tigers in the second.

364
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:55,000
I said two.

365
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,000
So if you're keeping score, change that.

366
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,000
One man left on.

367
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,000
Michael pulls one down the first base line.

368
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,000
He's backed up by Norm Cash and he takes himself.

369
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:08,000
One down.

370
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,000
No score here in the third inning.

371
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:20,000
And Jim Mason, the Yankee shortstop, steps in against Joe Coleman.

372
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:29,000
Mason, the left-handed batter.

373
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,000
He takes a second ball on the outside corner for a strike.

374
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:37,000
Well, Joe Tory just hit his first home run with a man on.

375
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,000
Definitely that's in the third inning.

376
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:42,000
So it's at least 3-0 now.

377
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:48,000
The Cardinals over the Mets in the third inning.

378
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,000
Ball to strike on Mason.

379
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:51,000
One out, nobody on here.

380
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,000
No score.

381
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:58,000
Outside, two balls and a strike.

382
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,000
The Cardinals really shook up their pitching staff.

383
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,000
Yeah, I'll say.

384
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,000
The only one they kept was Bob Gibson.

385
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,000
Get on the ground and the hole.

386
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,000
Backhanded by Brakeman, the shortstop.

387
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:10,000
Long throw, the first in time.

388
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,000
Got him by his step.

389
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:16,000
That's been played by Eddie Brakeman, the Tiger shortstop.

390
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,000
He was playing a Mason to pull just a bit and Mason slapped the ball in the hole.

391
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:24,000
Brakeman went over, backhanded it and made a strong throw the first in time.

392
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:25,000
So they're two outs.

393
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,000
And here's Roy White, the Yankee left fielder.

394
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:33,000
Roy was hit by a pitch his first time up.

395
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,000
He's been an excellent leadoff bat so far.

396
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:36,000
He's scored six runs.

397
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:40,000
Takes down a little ball.

398
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,000
Got a great on base average too, Bill.

399
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,000
Yeah, that's what you want from your leadoff bat.

400
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,000
It takes a little pressure off your batting leadoff.

401
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:48,000
You know, you do a lot of things.

402
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:53,000
Want the ball, look at four pitches.

403
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:59,000
Two high, two balls, no strikes at once.

404
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,000
Rod Gregerson close the third.

405
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,000
As Coleman works fast, a right-hander kicks and deals a fast ball.

406
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,000
Hit a foul up the middle, knocked down by Coleman.

407
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,000
He picks it up, throws on the first in time.

408
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:15,000
Coleman hit White with one in the first inning.

409
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,000
And White hit one back at him.

410
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,000
Coleman knocked it down, threw him out.

411
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,000
It's over the Yankees in the third, three up and three down.

412
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,000
We go into the bottom half of the third inning.

413
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:28,000
It's the Yankees nothing and the Tigers nothing.

414
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:56,000
Keep prepared, are you ready to get involved?

415
00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:00,000
You want to, you can't, you want to right now.

416
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,000
Let me lay it on you.

417
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:06,000
You know, you can help a lot of boys be prepared by being a leader in scouting.

418
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:07,000
I mean it.

419
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:11,000
Scouting today is a lot more than you think.

420
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:16,000
Be prepared, are you ready to get involved?

421
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:21,000
Be prepared, are you ready to take the lead?

422
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:37,000
Oh, let's get away from the rule, help me talk, I'm going to keep you ready.

423
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:41,000
Well in New York, in a pitching duel between Bob Gibson and Tom Seaver,

424
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:45,000
the Cardinals lead at three nothing after two and a half innings of play.

425
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:50,000
Home runs by Reese and a two on home run by Joe Torre in the top of the third.

426
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,000
The Cardinals lead three nothing over the Mets, over J.

427
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,000
Here's Bill Frehan leading off against Mel Sodomir, bottom of the third,

428
00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:00,000
in a game that's scoreless here in Tiger Stadium.

429
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,000
Frehan takes down low ball.

430
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,000
This fellow's been hot.

431
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:11,000
He's got at least one base hit in each of the Tigers' first five ball games.

432
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:15,000
And he's batting five seventy-one, he's eight for fourteen.

433
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,000
Check swing, slow hopper in the second base.

434
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:21,000
Hegan cuts it off, throws the first, in time to Sodomir.

435
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:25,000
Mike Hegan got that slow hopper before it reached the infield.

436
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:29,000
Actually the dirt part of the infield, he cut in front of Michael and grabbed it,

437
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:32,000
turned around and threw to Sodomir in time to get free hands.

438
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:35,000
So there's one away.

439
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:40,000
That was a check swing, slow hopper, and this infield is slow.

440
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,000
Gave Hegan a lot of time to get that ball.

441
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:44,000
Of course it was a tough play for him.

442
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:48,000
He had to turn completely around and throw behind him to Sodomir.

443
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:52,000
Now got the bag and the ball in time to get free hands.

444
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:55,000
Here's Gary Sutherland, the second baseman.

445
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,000
Takes a breaking ball too high.

446
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:02,000
Sutherland had a good opener here with the Tigers.

447
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:07,000
Picked up four base hits.

448
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,000
Now he just went down the right field line, it's going to be a base hit.

449
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:14,000
Mike Waddleway to wall, Bloomberg's over, cuts it off, throws it around first,

450
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,000
goes into second, and he will stand up there with a double.

451
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:21,000
Gary Sutherland has really been tough on Yankee pitching.

452
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:28,000
He was four for four against Klein and Fred Bean in the opener here.

453
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:36,000
Picked up three singles against Steve Klein and a double against Fred Bean.

454
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:40,000
So he was four for four, he leads off here by doubling down the right field line,

455
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,000
and he's five for five against Yankee pitching.

456
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:50,000
Sutherland down at second with one down and the batter Ed Brinkman, the shortstop.

457
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:53,000
Brinkman's been up once against Sodomir, he flies to center field.

458
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:56,000
Right-handed batter, no score.

459
00:33:56,000 --> 00:34:00,000
In the bottom half, the third inning.

460
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:08,000
Sodomir's first pitch now to Brinkman, down low ball.

461
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,000
Yankee outfield straight away, they're in close for Brinkman,

462
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:20,000
especially Bloomberg in right field, he's way in.

463
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:24,000
Now Sodomir sets up again, checks out on that second, and deals to the plate.

464
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:34,000
Up high, two balls, no strikes.

465
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,000
Games in the American League, Milwaukee's playing at Cleveland.

466
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,000
Baltimore at Boston, Chicago at Minnesota.

467
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,000
Texas playing at California tonight.

468
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:51,000
The next pitch, slider outside, three and oh.

469
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:55,000
Sodomir ran to count three balls, no strike to Brinkman in the first inning,

470
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:58,000
and came back and got him to fly to center field.

471
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,000
See what he does here now.

472
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,000
Montecarillo Rodriguez, the third baseman.

473
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:12,000
A pitch, right in there for called strike three and one.

474
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:17,000
Mel looking for his second win of the year.

475
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:21,000
Cleveland in the open at Shea, by a score of six to one.

476
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,000
Here's the three-one pitch to Brinkman now.

477
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:26,000
Swung on, lined to left field, White moving back.

478
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:27,000
He's under it and he's got it.

479
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:32,000
Settling, tagged his second, but he'll hold there as White throws a strike into net over third.

480
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,000
Well, there are two down.

481
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,000
Brinkman hits the ball hard, but right to the left field to Roy White.

482
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:43,000
Here's the Tiger third baseman, Aurelio Rodriguez.

483
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:50,000
He's been up once wide to Bloomberg and right field.

484
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,000
No score.

485
00:35:53,000 --> 00:36:01,000
Gary Sutherland at second base with two outs here in the third inning.

486
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,000
Rodriguez hasn't gotten started this spring.

487
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:08,000
He's three for 22.

488
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:17,000
Aspado-Meyer sets some deals, down low ball.

489
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:21,000
Jim Northrop on deck.

490
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,000
Still drizzling here at Tiger Stadium.

491
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:28,000
Aspado-Meyer sets up and the one-oh pitch.

492
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,000
Swung on, lined to center field, that's going to be a base hit.

493
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,000
Digging around third base to Sutherland.

494
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:33,000
Murphy's got the ball.

495
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,000
The strong throw home will not be in time.

496
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,000
The one-oh is going to second.

497
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,000
The throw there is in time.

498
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,000
And Rodriguez is out trying to go to second.

499
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:48,000
But the Tigers four, as Aurelio Rodriguez singles sharply to center field,

500
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:53,000
scoring Sutherland, and Rodriguez is cut down at second,

501
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:58,000
much from the catcher to Michael, the second baseman covering.

502
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,000
So the Tigers in the third to have one run are two hits.

503
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:05,000
There were no Yankee errors and nobody left on base.

504
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:12,000
At the end of three, the Tigers won and the Yankees nothing.

505
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,000
Now the Yankees have introduced an all-new scorecard,

506
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:18,000
which will be changed frequently during the season.

507
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:23,000
The new and large format with full four colors features a page of photos

508
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,000
of incoming American League opposing stars,

509
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:30,000
plus up-to-date rosters of both the Yankees and the opposing team.

510
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:36,000
And they're nice, large score blocks and a wonderful feature on where are they now.

511
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:41,000
Well, let's cause a look at Yankee players of the recent championship era.

512
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,000
There will be improvements and changes in the official Yankee scorebook

513
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:48,000
throughout the season, and it's on sale only at Shea Stadium,

514
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,000
and it's only on sale when the Yankees are home.

515
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,000
It's about just 50 cents.

516
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:57,000
So that's the Yankees' all-new scorecard talking about where are they now

517
00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:00,000
before yesterday's or before Tuesday's ballgame.

518
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:04,000
Got a chance to see a former Yankee shortstop, Tommy Trix.

519
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,000
So he's right here in Detroit.

520
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,000
That's a pretty good thing to have in a scorebook.

521
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:16,000
Pick up your 50 cents at Shea Stadium when the Yankees are home.

522
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,000
Well, we go now into the top of the fourth,

523
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,000
and here's a scooter to tell you about it.

524
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:24,000
All right, Frank and, uh, Frank, I mean, Bill, all right.

525
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:28,000
Frank is coming in as soon as Bill leaves.

526
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,000
Mike Higgin takes a strike on the first pitch by Coleman.

527
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,000
Higgin bounced into a double play his first time up,

528
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:38,000
runs up to bunt, takes it low, and outside it's 1-1.

529
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:43,000
The rain started just before the ballgame got underway, and it hasn't stopped.

530
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:49,000
It's not a very heavy rain, but a lot of umbrellas pop down on the stands.

531
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:56,000
Swing and a miss. One ball, two strikes.

532
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,000
Through the first three innings, the Yankees got two men on base.

533
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:03,000
Roy White getting hit with a pitch and a walk to Bloomberg, but no base hits.

534
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:08,000
That's strike three called. Higgin is screaming at the plate.

535
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,000
But it was a breaking pitch that caught the inside corner.

536
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:15,000
Coleman chalks up his second strikeout,

537
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:25,000
and it will bring up Dermen Munson, who, trying to check his swing, bounced out to first base his first time up.

538
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,000
It's going to be a tough ballgame today, Frank Metsa.

539
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,000
Coleman looks like he has the real good stuff out there.

540
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,000
Mel was falling behind the hitters.

541
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:35,000
If he settles down, it's going to be an awfully close ballgame.

542
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:39,000
Yep.

543
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:44,000
All right, the pitch to Munson is outside a sidearm curve, ball one.

544
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:49,000
On deck, Bobby Mercer.

545
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:52,000
Joe Coleman has to be one of the better pitchers in the American League.

546
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,000
He really doesn't get credit.

547
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,000
That's true.

548
00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:01,000
The right-handed pitch is hit high in the air, but his center field and Mickey Stanley, with a lot of room to roam,

549
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:06,000
backs up his under-it and makes the catch.

550
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,000
Sutherich two away.

551
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:18,000
Now Bobby Mercer, who bounced out to second base his first time up.

552
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:22,000
Coleman's dad, Joe Coleman Sr.,

553
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:31,000
pitched in the American League for a long time with Philadelphia A's, some with the Boston Red Sox.

554
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:34,000
Pitch to Bobby on the outside corner, strike one called.

555
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,000
On deck, Ronnie Bloomberg.

556
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:41,000
I'm sure I've asked you this before, Bill, is there any resemblance between Joe Jr. and Joe Sr.?

557
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,000
No, not in their pitching styles at all.

558
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:50,000
Strike two, he hit the outside corner, now the inside corner.

559
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:55,000
No, Joe Sr. was strictly an overhand fastball pitcher, a curve and a changeup.

560
00:40:55,000 --> 00:41:01,000
Joe, as we've told you, he can come overhand sidearm, he's got a slider, he's got a fall ball,

561
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:08,000
pitch low with that overhand curve and it's one ball, two strikes.

562
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:09,000
Makes it tough on the hitter.

563
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:14,000
Coleman comes from doing so many different positions.

564
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,000
Got to be ready all the time.

565
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:20,000
And he throws different pitches off those different positions.

566
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,000
There's the one-two pitch sidearm, a bounce in front of the plate.

567
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:28,000
Coleman, who was left up with it, flips easily to catch and the Yankees are easily retired here.

568
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:31,000
In the top of the fourth, three up, three down.

569
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:35,000
And in the middle of the fourth inning, the Tigers won the Yankees nothing.

570
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:36,000
No, no, no.

571
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:41,000
Excuse me.

572
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,000
This is Whitey Ford for Latham Ford.

573
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:48,000
I was fortunate enough to win a lot of games with the Yankees and there's one thing I learned.

574
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:51,000
Each one of those victories was a team effort.

575
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:57,000
So I feel right at home with the Latham Ford team, the salespeople, the service staff,

576
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,000
the secretaries, everybody works together.

577
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:08,000
Their goal, to give each customer a quality new or used car and the guaranteed service that goes with it.

578
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:09,000
And you know what?

579
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:12,000
They win every game.

580
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:16,000
When people call WQBK radio, they say such nice things.

581
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:17,000
It makes us blush.

582
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,000
Thanks.

583
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:23,000
QBK keeps your company, AM and FM.

584
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:28,000
I see that Mr. Ray Kroc has said that he will offer a public apology to his ball players

585
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:32,000
and to the Houston Astros for his remarks on the PA system out in San Diego.

586
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:33,000
Oh, I didn't read it.

587
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:34,000
Is that in the afternoon paper, Frank?

588
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:43,000
In the afternoon paper, he said from his home that he told the press he would issue a public apology

589
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:50,000
as had been requested by Commissioner Kuhn and the league president, Shelfini, and Marvin Miller.

590
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:54,000
Well, I guess he's so used to those McDonald Hamburgers coming out perfect every time.

591
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:57,000
He wants the ball players to do the same thing.

592
00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:00,000
I'd hissed out of my assistant off of swinging a missed strike wide.

593
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:05,000
That was really something, grabbing that PA system mic and right over it.

594
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:09,000
First he wanted the shrieker arrested, locked up, throw the key away.

595
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,000
Then he got on the ball players.

596
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:16,000
Inside this one of mine.

597
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:20,000
Well, that's what happens when you're very successful in so many things

598
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:27,000
and then you see something that doesn't go quite right.

599
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:30,000
Tigers won, Yankees nothing, bottom of the fourth.

600
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:41,000
Little bit high, says McCoy, the play-dumb player, and it's two balls and a strike.

601
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,000
Northrop bounced the short his first time up.

602
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,000
He bounced it back off the screen.

603
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,000
Evens the count of two and two.

604
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:53,000
At the end of three now is the Cardinals three and the Mets nothing.

605
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,000
Two homers off, Tom Siever.

606
00:43:56,000 --> 00:44:02,000
Joe Torrey with a mad on and Ken Reitz with the bases empty, I think.

607
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:08,000
Well, Siever lately has been bothered by the long ball.

608
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:12,000
The 2-2 pitch hit deep to right center field, Mercedal, both scores left.

609
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:16,000
Now comes in a couple of steps and makes the catch.

610
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:21,000
The deepest part of this ballpark is in center field, left center and right center.

611
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:24,000
Well, not quite left center and right center.

612
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:32,000
But it's 440 in dead center and 415 or about 100 feet to the right of that and 400 or 100 feet to the left.

613
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,000
It takes a good pair of legs to play center field in this ballpark.

614
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:39,000
This is why I like Yankee Stadium.

615
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:46,000
K-line, the designated hitter, hit a hard single between third and short to left field his first time up.

616
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:47,000
And bounce it just one to third.

617
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:49,000
Nettles up with it.

618
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,000
Fires to first and K-line is retired.

619
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:56,000
That ball almost went under Nettles' glove.

620
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:57,000
It didn't feel very soft.

621
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:58,000
The ball is not coming up.

622
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:05,000
That ground ball through Gene Michael that went for a base hit before just didn't come up, skidded right under his glove.

623
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:06,000
You're right, Frank.

624
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,000
On a very slow infield.

625
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:11,000
That way at J when the Yankees play there.

626
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:16,000
And here, too, you've got to really stay down, keep that glove down on the ground.

627
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,000
Look at that Mason down there.

628
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:19,000
He's playing third base.

629
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:20,000
He's got two third basemen.

630
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:21,000
Yep, Willie Horton up.

631
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:24,000
He could shake hands with Nettles and back on the edge of the outfield grass.

632
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:28,000
The knuckle curve goes through Muntz and back to the screen and it's ball one.

633
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:36,000
Willie Horton lined to the shortstop his first time up and Mason took his eye off the ball, went off his glove in a shallow left center field.

634
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:45,000
But K-line who was hustling back to the bag was fourth to second.

635
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:50,000
Willie stands well up on home plate.

636
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:52,000
Right hand batter holds the bat straight up and down.

637
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:55,000
The pitch is over and it's one ball, one strike.

638
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,000
Two out, nobody in.

639
00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:00,000
Bottom of the fourth, bag is out in front, one and nothing.

640
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,000
Still a lot of yucksters out there on the left field.

641
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:04,000
They must be safety patrol kids.

642
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:07,000
I see they got those bright orange belts on.

643
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:08,000
Uh huh.

644
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,000
And you can hear them.

645
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,000
Tiger fans.

646
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:14,000
One-one pitch.

647
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:15,000
It's deep to right center field.

648
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,000
That's going to be in there for extra bases.

649
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,000
Boombirds chasing it down.

650
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:20,000
It's rolling the wall.

651
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:21,000
He's up with it.

652
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:23,000
Horton is the last second.

653
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:24,000
He's going to try to third.

654
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:25,000
Here's Michael Crow.

655
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:26,000
They got him.

656
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:31,000
Oh, Horton hesitated at second base and looked at the coach instead of looking at the ball.

657
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:35,000
And at fraction of a second he waited rounding the bag, crossed him.

658
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:42,000
A beautiful relay from Bloomberg, number nine, to Michael, number four, to Eddels, number five.

659
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:46,000
It's a double, but he's thrown out trying to stretch it into a triple.

660
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:47,000
No runs.

661
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:48,000
A base hit.

662
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,000
No errors and nobody left.

663
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:54,000
At the end of four, it's the Tigers one and the Yankees nothing.

664
00:46:54,000 --> 00:47:01,000
Hey, we remember the 50s better than anybody.

665
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:02,000
Okay, what do you remember?

666
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:04,000
Well, I remember the lyrics to all the rock and roll songs.

667
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:06,000
Oh yeah, the soundtracks and the drums, all those kind of things.

668
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:07,000
What else?

669
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,000
I remember every inch of my first car.

670
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:10,000
You too.

671
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,000
You remember wrestling on TV, Johnny Goh, Gorgeous Boy.

672
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:13,000
You remember polio?

673
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:14,000
Polio?

674
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:15,000
Yeah.

675
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,000
Oh, I remember my mom and dad wouldn't let me go swimming at the public pool.

676
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,000
Oh yeah, you could even go to the movies.

677
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:20,000
Mark and John's poster.

678
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:21,000
That's right.

679
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:22,000
So they crippled kids and nine lunges.

680
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:23,000
Oh, that was a big scare.

681
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:24,000
It's like everything else from the 50s.

682
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:25,000
It'll never come back.

683
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:26,000
But it is.

684
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:27,000
Polio's coming back?

685
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,000
I thought the vaccines knocked it out for good.

686
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:30,000
Well, that's what everybody thinks.

687
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:33,000
But last year there was a big increase in the number of polio cases reported.

688
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:34,000
How come?

689
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:37,000
Well, because people forget to get their boosters and they don't have their children immunized

690
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:38,000
at all.

691
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:41,000
So diseases like polio, diphtheria, and tetanus can strike again, especially kids.

692
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:43,000
You mean Cynthia, we got kids, a boy and a girl?

693
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:44,000
We have five.

694
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:47,000
Have you taken them to a physician, a clinic, or a local health department to be immunized?

695
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:48,000
Oh no, no.

696
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:49,000
Oh, I forgot.

697
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:50,000
That's odd.

698
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Why?

699
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:52,000
If you don't remember anything, you're not going to remember anything.

700
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:56,000
If you don't remember immunization means protection, you don't remember the 50s at all.

701
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:59,000
This message brought to you by the American Medical Association.

702
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:02,000
Rod Rodney Bloomberg leads it off for the Yankees in the top of the fifth.

703
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:07,000
He groups one, a radio Rodriguez near the fire line, just in fair territory, makes the

704
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:09,000
catch at third.

705
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:12,000
He jammed Bloomberg right on the hands with that one.

706
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,000
Oh, one pitch, one out.

707
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:17,000
Yankees still looking for their first base hit of the ballgame.

708
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:27,000
Greg Nettles fly to the second baseman down the right field line, his first time up.

709
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:33,000
Lights have been on here since the start of the ballgame.

710
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:37,000
The drizzle has let up a little bit.

711
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:40,000
Pitch to Nettles right down the middle, strike one call.

712
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:49,000
Rodriguez way over towards shortstop, Brinkman over towards second base on the left side of the infield.

713
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:54,000
Joe Coleman, the right-hander, side armor, bouncing ball at second, Sutherland gets the nice hop.

714
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:57,000
Flips to Norm Cash and they're a two away.

715
00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:01,000
And Coleman's really making this game look easy to this point.

716
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:06,000
He must make sure they catch that commercial flight they have this afternoon to go to Boston.

717
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:08,000
Tom Siebers still giving up the gopher balls.

718
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:12,000
Luke Brock has hit one with two men on.

719
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:16,000
And now let's see, it's the Cardinals six and the Mets nothing at the end of three and a half.

720
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:20,000
Wow. That's a tough thing, you know, pitcher gets that on his mind.

721
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:24,000
And Tom Siebers just about the best pitcher in baseball.

722
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:27,000
That home run ball can really get you in trouble.

723
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:30,000
Wind must be blowing out of shape today.

724
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:32,000
I, Bill Sudeikis, struck out his first time up.

725
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:35,000
Bluffs to butt takes a strike.

726
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:40,000
Should have scored out of Cleveland, the Indians five and Milwaukee two at the end of two innings.

727
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:43,000
Now the Indians looking for their first win of the year.

728
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:47,000
White Sox looking for their first win of the year.

729
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:52,000
And I think the Pirates are too. There's a pretty giant tight one-on-one.

730
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:55,000
And Boston just hoping to play. They haven't played in four days.

731
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:59,000
They played Saturday and Friday and Saturday, I guess, and haven't played since.

732
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:02,000
Well, the weather's especially up in that New England area.

733
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,000
Swing and a miss. One ball, two strikes.

734
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:08,000
Sudeikis the switch hitter batting left-handed against Coleman.

735
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:12,000
Two out, nobody on, one nothing. The Tigers out in front.

736
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:16,000
They scored in the third inning on the double by Sutherland,

737
00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:21,000
who is now five for five against Yankee pitching, and a two-out single by Rodriguez.

738
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,000
A foul, that'll be out of play.

739
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:28,000
Rodriguez chasing it, but it's back into the seats.

740
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:32,000
Yankees are not having good cuts at Joe Coleman.

741
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,000
Not that he's overpowering fast, but as we mentioned,

742
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:40,000
he has so many deliveries and so many different pitches.

743
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:48,000
On deck, Gene Michael.

744
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:57,000
The pitch is low, and it's two and two.

745
00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:04,000
I think he's flying to Cleveland right after this ballgame.

746
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,000
All right, the two-two delivery.

747
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:11,000
Side armor, swing and a miss, and he has Sudeikis really fooled on that one.

748
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:15,000
Third strikeout for Coleman. He sets the Yankees down in order,

749
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:19,000
and in the middle of the fifth inning, as the Tigers won, the Yankees nothing.

750
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:23,000
Oh, yes, I recall my first love quite well.

751
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:27,000
Just the thought of her used to make my mouth run dry.

752
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:29,000
Today I'd suffer for that.

753
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:32,000
I remember when I first reached out and touched it.

754
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,000
Oh, was she cold.

755
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,000
But then who likes hot draft beer?

756
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:41,000
That's right. My first love was draft beer.

757
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,000
It was so fresh and smooth and creamy.

758
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:46,000
I've been in love with it ever since.

759
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:49,000
Only now I get it out of a can.

760
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,000
A can appeals real draft.

761
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:56,000
If you want a beer you can fall in love with, try Peel's Real Draft.

762
00:51:56,000 --> 00:52:01,000
It's just as fresh and smooth and creamy as the old days' kind.

763
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:06,000
When you have a can of Peel's Real Draft around, you don't need a woman.

764
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:10,000
And it certainly doesn't hurt to have one.

765
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:18,000
Peel's Real Draft, I can feel you got it.

766
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:26,000
Peel brothers, what a massive message she says.

767
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:29,000
So as you mentioned, the Yankees will be flying to Cleveland right after the game.

768
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:32,000
Four games over the weekend against the Indians.

769
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:35,000
Then it's back to Yankee Stadium for three afternoon games.

770
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:38,000
Next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday against the Boston Red Sox.

771
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:40,000
That's really going to be a big series.

772
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:45,000
The Red Sox, a team that must be beaten for anybody to contend, I think, in the American League East.

773
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,000
You're absolutely right, Frank.

774
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:54,000
All right, Norm Cash, who singled under Michael's glove in the second inning, leads it off.

775
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:58,000
Cash, the veteran left hand batter, his melt first pitch.

776
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:03,000
And it's taken a little bit low, ball one.

777
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:05,000
The Tigers have five hits in one run.

778
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:09,000
The Yankees, no hits and no runs.

779
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:15,000
The next pitch is, oh foul, almost got Dick Progiuzzi in the coaching box at first base.

780
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:21,000
Takes off the wall and Bloomberg will chase it down and foul territory.

781
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:28,000
One on one.

782
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:37,000
On deck is Mickey Stanley and he'll be followed by Phil Frehan.

783
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:39,000
Done.

784
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:42,000
Just popped out.

785
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:48,000
I don't think it'll be out very long, but it has popped out very weak, son.

786
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:51,000
There's a fair ball down the right field line.

787
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:53,000
Cash is going to first base.

788
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:54,000
He's going to try for two.

789
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:58,000
Bloomberg's throw will not be in time and Cash is in with a double.

790
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:09,000
Just inside the foul line between Hegan and the line.

791
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:15,000
And that's the second double, third double for the Tigers.

792
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,000
Off Mel Stoudelmeyer.

793
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:20,000
Cash opens at the bottom of the fifth and Mickey Stanley the batter.

794
00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:22,000
Stanley bounced into a double player's first time up.

795
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:32,000
Let's see if Ralph Mouth might be changing his tactics and go for a butt here or have Stanley try to hit the right field and get that run to the third.

796
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:40,000
Ralph very seldom butted when he was managing the Yankees.

797
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:43,000
Stretched by Stoudelmeyer.

798
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:47,000
And the pitch he's trying to go to right field takes the pitch on the corner strike one.

799
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:49,000
Yes, Stanley does want to go to right field.

800
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:53,000
I have an idea that he may have to butt a little bit more here because there's really no speed at all in this ball.

801
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:57,000
And whatsoever.

802
00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:02,000
Stanley a right hand batter.

803
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:04,000
Stoudelmeyer gets the sign from Munson.

804
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:09,000
Now checks Cash at second.

805
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:13,000
And the pitch Stanley again trying to go to right field is low and inside one on one.

806
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:15,000
Stoudelmeyer and Munson realize that.

807
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:17,000
Ralph's a little bit upset about a story.

808
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:18,000
It was in the paper yesterday.

809
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:23,000
He said after the ball game he settled back in his chair in the office in the clubhouse.

810
00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:28,000
Asked the clubhouse man to bring him a beer and the clubhouse man promptly brought him ten.

811
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:31,000
And Ralph said he got some mail today over that.

812
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:33,000
And said Jim Campbell got a couple of phone calls.

813
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:36,000
They worked out of a manager of he got going to drink ten beers after the ball game.

814
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:38,000
Of course he didn't drink ten beers.

815
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:44,000
The club man actually brought in a six pack in case the writers wanted to have a beer.

816
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:46,000
But Ralph's a little bit upset about it.

817
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:47,000
He should be.

818
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:50,000
The reporters get you in trouble every time.

819
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:53,000
All right Stoudelmeyer to the belt.

820
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:58,000
Just a little bit low and it's two balls and a strike.

821
00:55:58,000 --> 00:55:59,000
Well it's a real battle here.

822
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:00,000
A real duel.

823
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:04,000
Stanley trying to go the opposite way to advance that runner.

824
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:09,000
And Stoudelmeyer trying to keep him from doing that.

825
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:15,000
Stanley had just stepped out to check Joe Schultz coaching at the bird.

826
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,000
Cash leads the way.

827
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:21,000
And he hits it to right field and he'll have to play it on one bounce.

828
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:24,000
Cash will not score.

829
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:27,000
But Stanley did his job.

830
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:28,000
Did it even better.

831
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:31,000
Got a base hit instead of a ground ball.

832
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:36,000
So the Tigers now with runners at first and third.

833
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,000
Nobody out in the bat of Bill Freon.

834
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:45,000
Yankees in a tough spot here.

835
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:48,000
Sure Mason and Michael will be playing back for a double play.

836
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:50,000
Egan will have to hold the runner at first.

837
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:55,000
Nettles will be even with the bag so he can go either way.

838
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:58,000
What he brought us up on the dugout steps waving down to the bullpen.

839
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:00,000
Somebody's going to start warming up.

840
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:02,000
It's got to be McDowell.

841
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:08,000
He put his hand way high over his head and way wide outside.

842
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:11,000
Well I can understand high over the head but why way wide outside.

843
00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:12,000
He's a pretty big man.

844
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:14,000
Big shoulders.

845
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:16,000
Not that he's fat.

846
00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:20,000
The fat was the ten right.

847
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,000
It was a double motion rank.

848
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:25,000
I shouldn't say fat I should say chubby.

849
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:27,000
All right runners at first and third.

850
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:28,000
Nobody out.

851
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:29,000
Mr. Freon grounded at third.

852
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:30,000
They've got a whole case.

853
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:31,000
Go to second.

854
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:32,000
Michael comes to the play.

855
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:34,000
Beautiful heads up play.

856
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:37,000
Holy cow that was perfectly executed.

857
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:43,000
Cash committed a cardinal sin by not breaking right away to break up the double play.

858
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:45,000
He waited to nettle through the ball.

859
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:49,000
Michael Michael then saw a cash break late through a perfect strike to Muntzen.

860
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,000
Cash tried to nike Muntzen down.

861
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:56,000
He did but Thurman held on to the ball and there were two outs and a runner at first base.

862
00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:58,000
Beautiful double play heads up.

863
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:04,000
That play goes five four two.

864
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:10,000
Well that's not base running and Bill Burton has been working on that with the Yankees all spring.

865
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:11,000
Here's Gary Sutherland.

866
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:14,000
He doubled and scored the only run of the third inning.

867
00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:16,000
Takes the slider lower ball one.

868
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:19,000
I'm trying to think the last time I saw that double play.

869
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:20,000
It's been a long long time.

870
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:21,000
Absolutely.

871
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:25,000
The only way you can get it is if Nettles does what he did and the runner at third does what he did.

872
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:29,000
Nettles left him back to the bag then went to second.

873
00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:31,000
But that runner's got to break right away.

874
00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:35,000
Otherwise you take yourself right out of a big inning.

875
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:38,000
Even if they get him at the plate there's still two on and only one out.

876
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:41,000
As the ball hit the head of center they're finally going to get several and out.

877
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:45,000
Bobby Murtha makes the catch.

878
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:47,000
So the Yankees get a break for the Tigers.

879
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:50,000
No runs, two hits, no errors and a man left.

880
00:58:50,000 --> 00:59:00,000
And at the end of five it's the Tigers won the Yankees nothing.

881
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:03,000
Well many of us are still quite concerned about the energy crisis.

882
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:07,000
First the problem of not enough gas and now gas and oil costing us so much more and more.

883
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:13,000
Well many people have taken steps to greatly ease the big crunch on their wallets and to conserve fuel.

884
00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:16,000
They have purchased the amazing front wheel drive Subaru.

885
00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:22,000
Luigi Motorsales incorporated of Schenectady is the oldest and only exclusive Subaru dealer in the area.

886
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:26,000
Luigi himself supervises and services the Subaru.

887
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:29,000
Nowhere else will you find such personalized service.

888
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:31,000
Even the salesmen aren't really salesmen.

889
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:33,000
They're people like you and I.

890
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:37,000
But after you talk with John and Mike you'll soon find out that they're also your friends.

891
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:42,000
So why not do yourself a favor and see why so many people have switched to the Subaru

892
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:45,000
and have done business with Luigi Motorsales incorporated.

893
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:49,000
1563 State Street in Schenectady the Subaru from Luigi.

894
00:59:49,000 --> 01:00:00,000
One of the front runners of the gas and economic pinch.

895
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:02,000
This is the New York Yankee Baseball Network.

896
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:06,000
We're going to take a quick pause for station identification.

897
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:08,000
WQBK AM and FM, Wilford.

898
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:11,000
Well you can hear me Jack Hoppe from 3 to 7 each day.

899
01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:12,000
What? It is 3 to 7?

900
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:24,000
Oh I gotta go to work. Bye.

901
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:28,000
Gene Michael will lead it off for the Yankees here on the top of the 6.

902
01:00:28,000 --> 01:00:33,000
Joe Coleman has Eldon Hitless and Gene takes the curve low and inside ball one.

903
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:37,000
Michael bounced out the first base on the fiftieth his first time up.

904
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:43,000
Tigers won, Yankees nothing.

905
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:46,000
Gene the switch hitter batting left handed against Coleman.

906
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:49,000
And the pitchers bounce the first again fair ball knocked down by Cash.

907
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:51,000
Picked it up and stepped on the back.

908
01:00:51,000 --> 01:00:52,000
Just beats Michael.

909
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:58,000
Almost stepped on Coleman's foot but they get Michael out and there's one away.

910
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:01,000
That brings up Gene Mason rather.

911
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:03,000
Jim Mason.

912
01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:10,000
Mason was robbed of a base hit and a fine play by Eddie Brinkman.

913
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:13,000
Looks like they're finally going to play baseball in Boston Phil.

914
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:19,000
It's nothing to nothing at the end of one with Jim Palmer pitching for Baltimore and Louis Teon for the Red Sox.

915
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:32,000
All right Mason takes a pitch low ball one on deck Roy White.

916
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:38,000
Low ball two, two and nothing.

917
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:40,000
Mason has stepped back to look down at Dick House.

918
01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:43,000
The Yankees want to get a base run around that.

919
01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:45,000
They only had one ball at the outfield so far.

920
01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:48,000
Munson's fly ball to center.

921
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:50,000
Low ball three, three and nothing.

922
01:01:50,000 --> 01:01:53,000
And only one other ball in the air.

923
01:01:53,000 --> 01:02:02,000
This nettles foul pop up.

924
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:06,000
There's the strike three and one.

925
01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:11,000
Coleman has been rough on the left hand hitters.

926
01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:20,000
He's been rough on everybody but the three one pitch is hit to left field Willie Horton drips back and makes the catch.

927
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:27,000
The ball was hit well but to the opposite field and they're two away.

928
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:34,000
That brings up Roy White.

929
01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:44,000
White was hit with a pitch his first time up. Coleman was ahead of him 0 and 2 and then tried to waste one and hit Roy right in the middle of the back.

930
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:47,000
Next time up Roy hit a hot shot right back to the mound.

931
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:51,000
That pitch is low ball one.

932
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:52,000
To the Mets are getting in the home run act now.

933
01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:54,000
Wayne Gard has hit his first of the year.

934
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:58,000
Came with a man on to make that ball game six to two St. Louis in the fifth inning.

935
01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:04,000
Okay.

936
01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:06,000
On the inside corner one on one.

937
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:15,000
Two out nobody on.

938
01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:17,000
On this pitch Paul Lorp Roy couldn't that hurt.

939
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:21,000
Oh he's on the ground turning over twice that hit him solidly.

940
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:25,000
And was going forward when it hit him and kicked all the way back to the screen.

941
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:32,000
Monahan the Yankee trainer and that hurt.

942
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:37,000
Fortunately it got part of the spike shoe and not the ankle bone solidly.

943
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:40,000
I don't think Roy would be able to continue.

944
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:42,000
I thought for a minute it might have got his instep but it didn't.

945
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:44,000
It was on the side of the foot.

946
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:47,000
I was going to walk it off.

947
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:59,000
Roy wants to stay in there.

948
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:01,000
Roy has a count of one ball two strikes on him.

949
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:02,000
Two out nobody on.

950
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:06,000
Tigers in front one nothing top of the sixth.

951
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:10,000
Joe Coleman hands over the head.

952
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:19,000
Five ball that will be out of play and up on the roof here at Tiger Stadium.

953
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:26,000
This is Roy's 351st consecutive ball game for the Yankees.

954
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:34,000
He's very durable.

955
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:42,000
The kind usually the fellows that get hurt the most are the big husky strong fellows with a lot of muscle.

956
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:44,000
More of a chance to pull one.

957
01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:48,000
Again the one two look out he hit him in the same spot a little lower this time.

958
01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:50,000
Holding his backside this time.

959
01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:55,000
Got a little more meat there and it doesn't hurt as much Frank but that's twice he's been hit with a pitch.

960
01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:58,000
And both times he was behind on the count.

961
01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:00,000
First time 0-2 this time 1-2.

962
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,000
Roy has an amazing odd base percentage.

963
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:06,000
He came into this game he's been on base better than half the times he's come to bat.

964
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:10,000
And now he's been on base twice the hard way hit by the pitch today.

965
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:15,000
Roy was hit with the pitch twice and then fouled one off his foot so he's going to be aching all over.

966
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:19,000
And that's a tip in that whirlpool tomorrow over in Cleveland.

967
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:22,000
Mike Egan has hit in on a double play and struck out.

968
01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:23,000
Left hand batter.

969
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:26,000
Swings and misses strike one.

970
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:28,000
On deck Berman Munson.

971
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:37,000
Hager's lead 1-0.

972
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:40,000
Cash holds the bag against Roy White.

973
01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:42,000
And they almost picked him off.

974
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:46,000
Man they had Roy leaning short second he had taken one step.

975
01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:53,000
And only his quick reflexes enabled him to dive back head first.

976
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:59,000
Roy looked like Bill Burton on the draw to try and steal the bag.

977
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:00,000
See what happens here.

978
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:03,000
Stretched by Coleman.

979
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:09,000
Another throw to first this time Roy is back easily.

980
01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:14,000
Nothing in one to count.

981
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:17,000
Stretched by Coleman.

982
01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:18,000
And the pitch swing and a miss.

983
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:23,000
One after a low breaking pitch that time 0-2.

984
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:26,000
Plus the right field seats here are very inviting for left hand batters.

985
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:31,000
A lot of times you take your eye off the ball thinking it's so easy to hit one out there.

986
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:37,000
With a pitcher like Coleman it's easy to do.

987
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:39,000
Nothing in two to count.

988
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:40,000
There goes Roy White.

989
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:45,000
The pitch out they figured the throw is low and not in time and White steals the bag.

990
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:48,000
And started for third and then thought better of it.

991
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:54,000
He would have made it easily as Stanley and Sutherland had a little Alphonse Gasconak who's going to pick it up.

992
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:58,000
But Roy steals the bag even though they had called for a pitch out.

993
01:06:58,000 --> 01:07:03,000
And would have had Roy by about 10 feet but Priam's throw bounced about five feet in front of Bregman.

994
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:05,000
That's the first poor throw Priam has made.

995
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:08,000
He worked very hard on his throwing this spring.

996
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:11,000
And his arm was a bit suspect I am told.

997
01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:16,000
But he made a couple of perfect throws in the opening game here of the series Tuesday.

998
01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:19,000
And he did so the Yankees get a break.

999
01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:28,000
And let's see Roy White picks up his first stolen base of the year in his second attempt.

1000
01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:30,000
And he strikes them out.

1001
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:36,000
So the Yankees had a chance there but for the second time Coleman strikes out Hegan for his fourth strike.

1002
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:37,000
Strike out of the game.

1003
01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:42,000
No runs, no hits, no errors, a man left.

1004
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:47,000
And in the middle of the sixth inning it's the Tigers won the Yankees nothing.

1005
01:07:47,000 --> 01:08:12,000
D.D. is for everybody not just whoever. Anyone can share D.D. with someone nice as you.

1006
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:31,000
D.D. is for everybody. Darling have no doubt that anyone can get D.D.

1007
01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:36,000
That's what it's all about.

1008
01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:42,000
If you're curious or confused get information or a pamphlet at most pharmacies or a health clinic.

1009
01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:52,000
If you need help see a doctor. A public service message by this station and the American Social Health Association.

1010
01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:56,000
Well the Yankee Stadium ticket office will be open for another three hours this afternoon.

1011
01:08:56,000 --> 01:09:03,000
It's open every day until 6 and on Saturdays and Sundays until 5 o'clock.

1012
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:07,000
So plenty of time to get your tickets for the Boston Red Sox series.

1013
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:12,000
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. All afternoon games starting at 2 o'clock next week.

1014
01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:15,000
The Yankees and the Red Sox. Quite a series still.

1015
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:19,000
All right Frank the top of the order. Brinkman Rodriguez in north up against Stoudelmeyer.

1016
01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:22,000
Brinkman bounces one foul outside of third.

1017
01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:24,000
Eddie has hit the ball hard off Stoudelmeyer.

1018
01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:33,000
Fired hard to Mercer in center field the first inning. Line to Willie Horton in the third.

1019
01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:42,000
Go through six innings. Joe Coleman has not allowed a hit to the Yankees.

1020
01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:49,000
He's hit Roy White twice and given a walk.

1021
01:09:49,000 --> 01:10:08,000
All right Mel hands over the head. Side on pitch inside one of one.

1022
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:12,000
Mel gets the sign from Munson.

1023
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:18,000
Pitch is low ball two two of one.

1024
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:21,000
So do the Tigers have seven hits but only one run.

1025
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:28,000
Some bad base running has taken them out of a couple of innings.

1026
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:32,000
The 2-1 delivery is bounced to third. Nettles has it on the second hop.

1027
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:35,000
Fires to first and Brinkman is retired.

1028
01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:38,000
So Brinkman hits the ball hard again but right at Nettles.

1029
01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:42,000
One away and here's Rodriguez who has driven in the only run of the game.

1030
01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:45,000
Line to right in the first and single at center in the third.

1031
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:55,000
Then on the throw to the plate where Sutherland scored Munson threw them out as he tried to go to second.

1032
01:10:55,000 --> 01:11:02,000
One out nobody on. Tigers in front one nothing.

1033
01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:06,000
Side on my pitch bounced to third again. Nettles up with it.

1034
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:09,000
Fires to Hagan and there are two out.

1035
01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:13,000
He hit that ball right off the end of his bat. Wasn't hit hard.

1036
01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:25,000
And now Jim Northrop who is bounced to short and fly to center.

1037
01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:30,000
Told you the way this ball game is going Tigers will make their playing easily.

1038
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:36,000
Yankees have a charter and don't have to hurry but it's been an up and down game.

1039
01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:40,000
There's a bounce to hit slowly to first. Hagan will have to flip the start of my.

1040
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:43,000
He does and they got him easy inning to Mel.

1041
01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:47,000
Three up and three down and at the end of six full innings.

1042
01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:57,000
It's the Tigers won the Yankees nothing and Frank Messer will carry you along for the last three.

1043
01:11:57,000 --> 01:12:01,000
If you own a business that uses trucks you paid to have those signs painted on them.

1044
01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:03,000
If the signs are dirty no one can read them.

1045
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:07,000
Come to Albany's SuperSonic Car Wash at 1025 Central Avenue in Albany.

1046
01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:13,000
They can accommodate not only all kinds of cars but also panel body trucks and VW buses.

1047
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:19,000
They're conveniently located to a 1025 Central Avenue in Albany just two blocks west of Westgate Shopping Center.

1048
01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:25,000
Albany's SuperSonic is open daily from 830 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sundays from 830 to 5.

1049
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:37,000
Albany's SuperSonic Car Wash at 1025 Central Avenue in Albany.

1050
01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:41,000
On QBK radio we pick up every record just for you.

1051
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:54,000
Thanks for picking us. WQBK. QBK keeps you company AM and FM.

1052
01:12:54,000 --> 01:13:10,000
Well we moved right along.

1053
01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:15,000
In our ballgame with the 7th inning, Berman Munson will try to get something started for the Yankees

1054
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:19,000
who have been unable to touch Joe Coleman so far.

1055
01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:29,000
Against Munson, the right-hander, the infield shades slightly around toward third.

1056
01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:32,000
Berman is grounded out to first base and flies to center.

1057
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,000
Swings to the first pitch, ground ball to third.

1058
01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:35,000
Flag down there by Rodriguez.

1059
01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:44,000
Fires the cross in time and on one pitch, Munson grounds out to the third baseman of Raleigh, O'Rodriguez.

1060
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:49,000
It will bring up Bobby Mercer. Bobby is over two and hasn't had the ball off the infield.

1061
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:59,000
Roddy Bloomberg comes out on deck.

1062
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:16,000
Mercer is grounded out to second and to the pitcher.

1063
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:18,000
First pitch is in low, ball one.

1064
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:25,000
Sam McDowell throwing down the Yankee bullpen.

1065
01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:32,000
Coleman has his side, right-hander deals up high.

1066
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:35,000
What is it Bill Wright that Coleman has been drawing a staffer and keeps that ball on the ground?

1067
01:14:35,000 --> 01:14:37,000
Forkball I guess.

1068
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:43,000
He picked up a forkball a couple of years ago and he's given the Yankees a good with it over the last couple of years.

1069
01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:46,000
Especially Munson.

1070
01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:50,000
He comes up high to Bobby and the count goes to three balls and no strikes.

1071
01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:55,000
Coleman has walked only one man. He's hit two batters. Well he's hit one batter twice.

1072
01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:59,000
Roy White in the first inning, again the sixth.

1073
01:14:59,000 --> 01:15:02,000
And gave a walk to Bloomberg, Ronnie's first time up.

1074
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:05,000
He's behind three and O to Mercer.

1075
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:09,000
Bobby has glanced out at Dick Hauser and he takes ball four high and outside.

1076
01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:12,000
Mercer is on.

1077
01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:18,000
Well the Yankees have their fourth baserunner.

1078
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:22,000
In the first inning after White was hit by a pitch, Higgin grabbed it into a double play.

1079
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:26,000
Bloomberg was stranded in the second after walking.

1080
01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:34,000
And Roy White was stranded at second base in the sixth inning after being hit and stealing second.

1081
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:36,000
Mercer has been running this year. We'll keep an eye on him for you.

1082
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:40,000
Cash has got to hold him on. Bobby takes a long lead over at first base.

1083
01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:43,000
Coleman's pitch to Bloomberg, cut out and bounce foul.

1084
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:47,000
Flag down by Coach Ellie Howard at first base.

1085
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:52,000
Bloomberg after walking in the second popped up in the fifth.

1086
01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:56,000
The Yankees have had only two balls off the infield.

1087
01:15:56,000 --> 01:16:04,000
Munson's fly ball to center and Mason's fly ball to left field.

1088
01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:10,000
Greg Nettles on deck. Tigers are leading by a score of one to nothing here in the top of the seventh inning.

1089
01:16:10,000 --> 01:16:22,000
Mercer at first, one out. Coleman comes out of the bounce, spins, throws to first, safe.

1090
01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:25,000
They play Bloomberg to pull on the infield, the outfield straight away.

1091
01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:30,000
The pitch is hit in the outer left field. Horton is right there, headed right to him, waiting.

1092
01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:33,000
Comes in a step and makes the catch.

1093
01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:36,000
Mercer tagged up and stays at first base.

1094
01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:40,000
Two down and out Greg Nettles.

1095
01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:45,000
Nettles is popped up in foul ground to the second baseman Sutherland.

1096
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:50,000
Sutherland went a long way down the right field line for him.

1097
01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:56,000
Then Greg bounced out to the second baseman Sutherland.

1098
01:16:56,000 --> 01:17:00,000
Arreale Rodriguez comes into the grass very wide at third base.

1099
01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:03,000
Brinkman well over toward second. Sutherland in the hole.

1100
01:17:03,000 --> 01:17:08,000
Cash holding Mercer on the outfield, punches toward center, getting Nettles both by a line.

1101
01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:13,000
Throw to first, safe.

1102
01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:16,000
So was it. I told you the sun came out for just about one minute.

1103
01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:18,000
Now it's back under the clouds.

1104
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:29,000
But the rain has stopped. Quick throw to first, safe again. Mercer back in standing.

1105
01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:33,000
Bill Sudeikis in the on deck circle.

1106
01:17:33,000 --> 01:17:42,000
Coleman comes to the belt, holds the set, throws to first again, Mercer is back.

1107
01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:54,000
Come by Joe Brinkman, no relationship to Eddie, the shortstop, watching the players at first.

1108
01:17:54,000 --> 01:18:09,000
And the pitch, taken outside, off speed pitch that time.

1109
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:14,000
Mercer walks off of three, now four step lead at first base.

1110
01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:18,000
Coleman spins and throws over there and Bobby is back.

1111
01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:20,000
Coleman's got that little block move at first base.

1112
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:27,000
He breaks his left knee and looks like he's coming home and then he twirls, spins quickly and throws to first.

1113
01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:30,000
There goes Mercer, the pitch is cut on, bounces slowly back to the mound.

1114
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:35,000
Coleman has it, throws to first base, Nettles is out and throws to side.

1115
01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:39,000
Nettles did not want to swing at that one, it was a half swing.

1116
01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:41,000
But he made contact and bounces out to the pitcher.

1117
01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:45,000
The Yankees no runs, no hits, no errors, and the man left.

1118
01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:49,000
At the end of the top of the seventh inning, it's Detroit 1 and New York nothing.

1119
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:54,000
This is it.

1120
01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:58,000
The sun can be brutal here, so close to the Sahara.

1121
01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:03,000
Smoldering 103 degrees on the parts village of Terra in Niger, Africa.

1122
01:19:03,000 --> 01:19:07,000
Behind one mud hut, a village of scrapes and greens from the earth.

1123
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:11,000
And nearby, another pounds millet grains and the powder.

1124
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:14,000
Down the road, a child cries.

1125
01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:16,000
Good health doesn't come easy here.

1126
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:18,000
That's what brought Nancy Reardon to Terra.

1127
01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:24,000
She's a Peace Corps volunteer, sharing her knowledge of health and nutrition with the people here.

1128
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:26,000
They need her knowledge.

1129
01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:31,000
Four out of eight children never make it past their fifth birthday.

1130
01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:35,000
Young people like Nancy, serving far away from home in the Peace Corps,

1131
01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:42,000
and her fellow volunteers and VISTAs, serving across this country, are all a part of action.

1132
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:46,000
To find out how you can become a volunteer, write action.

1133
01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:55,000
Washington, D.C., 20525.

1134
01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:59,000
Polly Ankins will be back home Tuesday afternoon to play the Boston Red Sox.

1135
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:02,000
They'll play the Red Sox three afternoon games, all starting at 2 o'clock.

1136
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:08,000
Tuesday afternoon, April 16th, Wednesday the 17th, and Thursday the 18th.

1137
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:12,000
Chance to see Carl Yastrinsky and the rest of the Red Sox.

1138
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:19,000
Okay, Bill, Al Kailine, one for two, leads off the seventh inning.

1139
01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:24,000
Kailine single to left field in the second, then was forced to second base.

1140
01:20:24,000 --> 01:20:30,000
After Mason dropped Willie Horton's line drive, he picked it up and forced Kailine.

1141
01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:33,000
Kailine drafted out the third base in the fourth.

1142
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:36,000
The pitch is long away, ball one.

1143
01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:40,000
Looks like Al Kailine, another one of those players with a designated hitter rule,

1144
01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:42,000
just to run it on, Bill, as long as he wants to.

1145
01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:44,000
Well, Ralph Houch says he doesn't need a glove this year.

1146
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:46,000
He's not going to put him in the outfield.

1147
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:49,000
He takes this one, Long, outside, two balls and no strikes.

1148
01:20:49,000 --> 01:20:57,000
I guess with that kid Ron Cash hitting the way he's hitting, he won't use the first base either.

1149
01:20:57,000 --> 01:21:02,000
Ron Cash trying to take the job away from Norm Cash.

1150
01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:04,000
Here's the 2-0 delivery.

1151
01:21:04,000 --> 01:21:07,000
Up high, ball three to Kailine.

1152
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:11,000
Ron and Norm are not related. Now, Tigers wear their names on the uniforms.

1153
01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:17,000
Ron Cash has R, Cash on the back of his, but Norm Cash has just Cash.

1154
01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:19,000
He wouldn't let him put the N on.

1155
01:21:19,000 --> 01:21:21,000
If people don't know me now, they never will.

1156
01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:25,000
There's a strike to Kailine. It's three and one.

1157
01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:31,000
He's right. He's been around here about 15 years.

1158
01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:33,000
Please, that.

1159
01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:35,000
There's the windup. Three-one pitch.

1160
01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:38,000
Ryan Dry at the center. That's going to be a base hit.

1161
01:21:38,000 --> 01:21:40,000
Bobby Merchant plays it on two hops.

1162
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:45,000
And Kailine is on with his second base hit of this ballgame.

1163
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:48,000
Stottlemeyer got him in on the fifth.

1164
01:21:48,000 --> 01:21:52,000
That was a handle hit right out of the second base.

1165
01:21:52,000 --> 01:21:54,000
It brings up Willie Horton.

1166
01:21:54,000 --> 01:22:01,000
Certainly one of the strongest men in baseball.

1167
01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:04,000
Frank, did you get the lead score?

1168
01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:06,000
The fifth inning complete down?

1169
01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:09,000
Right. It's after five. Cardinals are bad at the top of the sixth.

1170
01:22:09,000 --> 01:22:13,000
And the Cardinals lead the match by a score of six to two.

1171
01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:15,000
It's been four home runs in that ballgame, I know.

1172
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:21,000
Lou Brock, Joe Torey, Ken Reach for the Cardinals, and Wayne Garret for the Mets.

1173
01:22:21,000 --> 01:22:26,000
Horton has gone one for two, had a double his last time up,

1174
01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:29,000
and was thrown outside to stretch it into a triple.

1175
01:22:29,000 --> 01:22:35,000
Bloomberg fired perfectly to Michael, and Michael's relay to Nettles was right on the money.

1176
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:38,000
Throw to first, Kailine is back.

1177
01:22:38,000 --> 01:22:41,000
First time up, Horton batted with Kailine at first.

1178
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:48,000
Hit the line drive, Mason had it in his glove, tried to throw the ball, I think, before he caught it, dropped it,

1179
01:22:48,000 --> 01:22:55,000
but still recovered it in time to get the fourth play at second.

1180
01:22:55,000 --> 01:23:00,000
Now the one-all pitch, down low, ball one.

1181
01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:02,000
Here's a score in the American League.

1182
01:23:02,000 --> 01:23:07,000
Baltimore and Boston, those four after an inning and a half, that ballgame being played in Boston.

1183
01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:11,000
And Chicago, the White Sox won, the Minnesota Twins nothing after one and a half.

1184
01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:13,000
The Twins batting in the bottom of the second.

1185
01:23:13,000 --> 01:23:20,000
The White Sox having a lot of trouble this year, I guess they are.

1186
01:23:20,000 --> 01:23:29,000
Now the one-all pitch, a strike call, one and one, to Horton, looks like a slider from Stuttelmeyer.

1187
01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:36,000
Mr. Sunshine may not be beaming quite as much as usual, Chuck Gunner.

1188
01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:39,000
This man seems to have a perpetual smile on his face.

1189
01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:41,000
Yep, never seems to worry about a thing.

1190
01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:47,000
That's the orthodox managing, and he's gotten away with it for two years, though.

1191
01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:51,000
One ball, one strike to Horton, Kaleid at first, nobody out, here's the pitch.

1192
01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:54,000
Change up is hit in the air to left field.

1193
01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:56,000
Moving over forward is Mercer, well over in left.

1194
01:23:56,000 --> 01:24:03,000
Mercer is under it and makes the catch, and Kaleid makes him throw and now dashes back to first base.

1195
01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:05,000
Bobby Mercer went way over to the left field.

1196
01:24:05,000 --> 01:24:09,000
Of course they play Horton to full way around anyway.

1197
01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:17,000
One out, and the batter will be Norm Cash, two for two.

1198
01:24:17,000 --> 01:24:20,000
Cash had a base hit under Michael's glove at second base his first time up,

1199
01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:35,000
then doubled the right field at the full one just inside the line.

1200
01:24:35,000 --> 01:24:39,000
And the pitch to it, on the outside corner, strike one.

1201
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:43,000
Sam McDowell continues to throw on the Yankee bullpen, getting his work in,

1202
01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:52,000
and a left-hander, Luke Walker, is pitching down on the Detroit Tiger bullpen.

1203
01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:55,000
Nettles very wide of the line on Cash and in close.

1204
01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:56,000
The infield plays in the full.

1205
01:24:56,000 --> 01:25:05,000
The pitch is hit off the end of the bat into the Tiger dugout.

1206
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:13,000
No ball to strike out on Cash.

1207
01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:16,000
Dottelmeyer walks off the reverse club of the mound.

1208
01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:19,000
Tigers are leading one and nothing.

1209
01:25:19,000 --> 01:25:27,000
Yankees have not had a base hit off Joe Coleman through their first seven times at bat.

1210
01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:29,000
Dottelmeyer has the sign from Munson.

1211
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:31,000
Comes out of the bow, the right-hander turns it loose.

1212
01:25:31,000 --> 01:25:33,000
Cash hits a drive toward right center.

1213
01:25:33,000 --> 01:25:36,000
Mercer is after it, and Bobby's got it at the edge of the warning track

1214
01:25:36,000 --> 01:25:39,000
in front of the 370 marker.

1215
01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:43,000
Throws back in and again, K-line ducks back to first base.

1216
01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:45,000
That ball got out there in a hurry.

1217
01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:48,000
Mercer had to get a good jump on it, and he did.

1218
01:25:48,000 --> 01:25:52,000
Two down, and now Mickey Stanley, the Tiger center fielder.

1219
01:25:52,000 --> 01:26:00,000
Stanley has grabbed it into a double play and single the right field.

1220
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:03,000
The Red Sox picked up two runs in the bottom half of the second inning,

1221
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:08,000
and they lead Baltimore 2-0 after two.

1222
01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:13,000
That's Jim Blomberg for Baltimore and Lewis Piot for Boston this afternoon.

1223
01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:15,000
The Red Sox have been off four days.

1224
01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:18,000
They've played Friday and Saturday, and they haven't played since

1225
01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:23,000
because of bad weather in New England.

1226
01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:26,000
Dottelmeyer ready to work to Stanley,

1227
01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:29,000
and the first pitch cut on and grounded foul, got it in on his hands,

1228
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:40,000
and he pulled his foul over toward the third base dugout.

1229
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:43,000
The Tigers go into Boston following this game,

1230
01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:45,000
and I think he's going to Cleveland.

1231
01:26:45,000 --> 01:26:49,000
He'll be playing tomorrow night over in Cleveland.

1232
01:26:49,000 --> 01:26:54,000
He'll ask for a zudo to check out his ski wear again.

1233
01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:56,000
Go on, go on, hit.

1234
01:26:56,000 --> 01:26:59,000
It's deep to the field, wide is back to the seat.

1235
01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:02,000
Can he get it? He leaps, he can on, a home run.

1236
01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:06,000
A home run for Mickey Stanley, scoring K-line ahead of him,

1237
01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:13,000
and the Tigers lead 3-0.

1238
01:27:13,000 --> 01:27:17,000
No got that ball up a little. He didn't want that breaking ball that high.

1239
01:27:17,000 --> 01:27:23,000
Stanley, a pretty good fastball hitter, jumping on a hanging breaking ball

1240
01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:25,000
and just getting it out of reach to Roy White.

1241
01:27:25,000 --> 01:27:27,000
White out there trying to climb the fence for the ball.

1242
01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:34,000
It just made the first throw on left field.

1243
01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:36,000
He gave it all he had. He went up on the fence,

1244
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:38,000
grabbed hold of the top of the fence, pulled himself up,

1245
01:27:38,000 --> 01:27:41,000
and still could not reach it.

1246
01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:45,000
I have seen White go up that fence out there and make a catch,

1247
01:27:45,000 --> 01:27:47,000
but that one was too high for him.

1248
01:27:47,000 --> 01:27:51,000
Stanley's second home run of the year, the Tigers lead 3-0,

1249
01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:55,000
and now Bill Frihan steps in. He's 0 for 2.

1250
01:27:55,000 --> 01:27:58,000
Sattelmeyer winds and deals, low.

1251
01:27:58,000 --> 01:28:02,000
Frihan ground it out to Higa at first, his first time up.

1252
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:05,000
That hit into a very unorthodox double play.

1253
01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:08,000
With runners at first and third, he had a ground ball to third.

1254
01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:10,000
Nettles fielded the ball.

1255
01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:13,000
Checked Cash back toward the bag. Cash did not break for the plate.

1256
01:28:13,000 --> 01:28:16,000
Nettles threw the second base to get Stanley out of fourth,

1257
01:28:16,000 --> 01:28:19,000
and then Michael threw home to cut Cash down at the plate

1258
01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:22,000
to complete the double play.

1259
01:28:22,000 --> 01:28:30,000
Fitches down, low ball to Frihan. Two balls and no throw.

1260
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:32,000
Two outs and nobody on.

1261
01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:40,000
The wind up by Sattelmeyer and the pitch. Cut on, ground ball to third foul.

1262
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:43,000
The Twins picked up two runs in the bottom of the second,

1263
01:28:43,000 --> 01:28:47,000
and they now lead the Chicago White Sox 2-1 after two.

1264
01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:49,000
The Mets must be doing something.

1265
01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:54,000
Proposky pitching for the Cardinals in the seventh,

1266
01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:58,000
so the Mets have gotten rid of Gibson.

1267
01:28:58,000 --> 01:29:01,000
It's like the Twins saving all their wins for the season.

1268
01:29:01,000 --> 01:29:04,000
They hardly won a ball game in exhibition play,

1269
01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:07,000
but now they are 3-1 going into the day and leading in their ball game.

1270
01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:11,000
Alright, Sattelmeyer with a 2-1 pitch to Frihan.

1271
01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:23,000
Has the plate but high. Ball three, 3-1.

1272
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:25,000
We're in the bottom half of the seventh.

1273
01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:27,000
Two outs, none on. Detroit leading 3-0.

1274
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:35,000
Sattelmeyer brings it. Frihan takes it, low ball for.

1275
01:29:35,000 --> 01:29:37,000
That's the first walk by Sattelmeyer.

1276
01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:39,000
This is the New York Yankee Baseball Network.

1277
01:29:39,000 --> 01:29:45,000
We pause for station identification.

1278
01:29:45,000 --> 01:29:48,000
WQBK AM and FM Winsler. Hi, I'm Jack Hocky.

1279
01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:54,000
I'll be here after the game's over. Win or lose, go Yanks.

1280
01:29:54,000 --> 01:30:00,000
Gary Sattelman does the batter.

1281
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:04,000
He takes a pitch low and outside, ball one.

1282
01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:08,000
Sattelman doubled his first time up to give him five consecutive base hits in the series.

1283
01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:15,000
Yankees finally got him in the fifth when he flied out to center field.

1284
01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:21,000
Tom Buskey is up on the Yankee bullpen now, right-hander.

1285
01:30:21,000 --> 01:30:25,000
Egan is not holding. Frihan on. Throw over there anyway.

1286
01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:41,000
Egan behind the base runner. Took the throw wide at the back.

1287
01:30:41,000 --> 01:30:45,000
Sattelmeyer checks Munson for the sign. Short stretch and the pitch.

1288
01:30:45,000 --> 01:31:04,000
Fly and drive foul outside of first. Down into the Yankee bullpen.

1289
01:31:04,000 --> 01:31:15,000
Sattelman feet very close together. Rookie on this ball club.

1290
01:31:15,000 --> 01:31:18,000
It's a fly ball to right center. It's in there for the base hit.

1291
01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:23,000
Frihan on his way to third. Mercer's throw will be cut off by Mason.

1292
01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:28,000
And the Tigers have runners at first and third.

1293
01:31:28,000 --> 01:31:32,000
Sattelman is not a rookie in baseball, but he is to this ball club.

1294
01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:38,000
He's in with the Phillies and Montreal.

1295
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:41,000
Better say newcomer rather than rookie on the ball club.

1296
01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:44,000
Newcomers this ball club.

1297
01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:57,000
Runners at first and third. Munson goes out to talk to Sattelmeyer.

1298
01:31:57,000 --> 01:32:01,000
And now to play down by her. Larry McCoy goes out to break up the conversation.

1299
01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:05,000
Runners at first and third.

1300
01:32:05,000 --> 01:32:08,000
Here comes Bill Verdon. That might be all for Sattelmeyer.

1301
01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:12,000
He's got Tom Buskey, a right-hander, getting loose in the bullpen and right field.

1302
01:32:12,000 --> 01:32:16,000
Mel was giving up three runs on ten hits and they have runners at first and third.

1303
01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:21,000
And I think one of the things Verdon looked at, Frank, after reading the papers

1304
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:26,000
and finding out what he said about the fly when he took Steve out, he said Steve was throwing well in the opening here.

1305
01:32:26,000 --> 01:32:31,000
He was just getting his pitches high. And Sattelmeyer got the high breaking ball to Stanley,

1306
01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:34,000
who promptly hit it into the left field seat to score two runs.

1307
01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:40,000
And that might be the criterion that Verdon uses watching his pitches along with the whitey four.

1308
01:32:40,000 --> 01:32:44,000
Both of them standing over here together. And that's going to be all for Sattelmeyer.

1309
01:32:44,000 --> 01:32:49,000
Tom Buskey will come in to relieve Mel Sattelmeyer here in the seventh.

1310
01:32:49,000 --> 01:32:56,000
Tigers will have runners at first and third and two outs.

1311
01:32:56,000 --> 01:33:03,000
Buskey making the long walk from the Yankee bullpen out in right field.

1312
01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:09,000
Big right-hander from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Had a great spring.

1313
01:33:09,000 --> 01:33:16,000
And so far this year he's picked up a save.

1314
01:33:16,000 --> 01:33:23,000
And he's in that inning that he picked up that save. He walked one and struck out one.

1315
01:33:23,000 --> 01:33:31,000
So Tom Buskey relieves Mel Sattelmeyer.

1316
01:33:31,000 --> 01:33:39,000
Buskey, Buskey, the winner of the Dawson Award, has the best rookie in the Yankee camp this spring.

1317
01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:48,000
Big fella.

1318
01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:52,000
Let's see, Buskey 6'3", weighs 220 pounds from Harrisburg.

1319
01:33:52,000 --> 01:33:57,000
Last year, he spent the year with the Yankees and Syracuse.

1320
01:33:57,000 --> 01:34:00,000
Fact, Frank, as I remember, this is the place they brought the fit,

1321
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:03,000
made his first pitching appearance with the Yankees right here at Tiger Stadium.

1322
01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:06,000
It certainly was, and he looked very impressive.

1323
01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:11,000
Buskey with a good fastball, and evidently he's added a good shaker to go with that.

1324
01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:14,000
Ball goes down well, and he pitched well his last time out.

1325
01:34:14,000 --> 01:34:21,000
He'll have to deal with Eddie Frankman here with runners at first and third, and two outs to the seventh.

1326
01:34:21,000 --> 01:34:23,000
While we're waiting on Buskey, let's look at the scoreboard again.

1327
01:34:23,000 --> 01:34:26,000
It's Minnesota 2, Chicago 1 after 2.

1328
01:34:26,000 --> 01:34:29,000
Cleveland 5, Milwaukee 2 after 2.

1329
01:34:29,000 --> 01:34:33,000
And the Red Sox 2, Baltimore nothing after 2.

1330
01:34:33,000 --> 01:34:37,000
Over the National League after 6, the Cardinals 6, the Mets 2.

1331
01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:41,000
And after 1, Philadelphia and the Chicago Cubs, no score.

1332
01:34:41,000 --> 01:34:42,000
All right, Frank.

1333
01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:45,000
Eddie Frankman, ready to set Buskey.

1334
01:34:45,000 --> 01:34:48,000
Frankman has got over three in this ballgame.

1335
01:34:48,000 --> 01:34:50,000
He's up with runners at first and third, and two outs.

1336
01:34:50,000 --> 01:34:52,000
The Tigers leading 3-0.

1337
01:34:52,000 --> 01:34:55,000
And Ken Wright is throwing now in the Yankee ballpark.

1338
01:34:55,000 --> 01:34:59,000
The set by Buskey, the kick and the pitch from the right hander is looked out at the right field.

1339
01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:00,000
That's going to be a base hit.

1340
01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:02,000
Here comes three out in the score.

1341
01:35:02,000 --> 01:35:10,000
And Bloomberg fires on to our third base.

1342
01:35:10,000 --> 01:35:13,000
Southerland stopped his second, and Brinkman wasted no time.

1343
01:35:13,000 --> 01:35:18,000
He jumped on the first pitch and looked it out at the right to drive in run number 4.

1344
01:35:18,000 --> 01:35:23,000
The run is charged to Southermire.

1345
01:35:23,000 --> 01:35:25,000
And now Southerland is second, Brinkman is first.

1346
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:35,000
The batter will be Aurelio Rodriguez.

1347
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:37,000
Rodriguez is one for three.

1348
01:35:37,000 --> 01:35:44,000
Fly to right, single to center, and granted out to third.

1349
01:35:44,000 --> 01:35:46,000
Right hand hitter, Buskey.

1350
01:35:46,000 --> 01:36:01,000
Kicks and deals. Blowing away, ball one.

1351
01:36:01,000 --> 01:36:04,000
Buskey hides the ball behind the right hip.

1352
01:36:04,000 --> 01:36:06,000
Brings his hands together and fires.

1353
01:36:06,000 --> 01:36:07,000
Flodder is fouled back.

1354
01:36:07,000 --> 01:36:13,000
Breaking pitch.

1355
01:36:13,000 --> 01:36:22,000
Brinkman is first and Southerland is second, two out.

1356
01:36:22,000 --> 01:36:26,000
Lights have been on the entire afternoon here at Tigers Stadium.

1357
01:36:26,000 --> 01:36:36,000
A very dark, cloudy day with some rain earlier in the ball game.

1358
01:36:36,000 --> 01:36:47,000
One long pitch to Rodriguez. Blowing away, two and one.

1359
01:36:47,000 --> 01:36:57,000
Tigers got a run on the third, got a double by Southerland and a single by Rodriguez.

1360
01:36:57,000 --> 01:37:03,000
And they've scored three runs here in the seventh.

1361
01:37:03,000 --> 01:37:07,000
Down low and it's ball three, three and one.

1362
01:37:07,000 --> 01:37:12,000
Keyline open for the single to center with two-man out, Stanley Homer.

1363
01:37:12,000 --> 01:37:25,000
Freehand walk, went to third on Southerland's basis and scored on Brinkman's single.

1364
01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:29,000
Buskey has the side, checks the runner at second and fires.

1365
01:37:29,000 --> 01:37:33,000
Pitch is hit in the air to shallow right. Bloomberg calling for it.

1366
01:37:33,000 --> 01:37:34,000
Bloddy is under it.

1367
01:37:34,000 --> 01:37:37,000
Bloddy bakes the catch, the side is retired.

1368
01:37:37,000 --> 01:37:41,000
But the Tigers bat eight men and they score three runs on four hits.

1369
01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:43,000
There were no Yankee errors and two men are left.

1370
01:37:43,000 --> 01:37:48,000
So at the end of seven the score is Detroit four and New York nothing.

1371
01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:52,000
Having work done on your car costs money, usually more than you'd like to spend.

1372
01:37:52,000 --> 01:38:01,000
Well, it's getting late for the Yankees.

1373
01:38:01,000 --> 01:38:05,000
They have no runs and no hits against Joe Colman.

1374
01:38:05,000 --> 01:38:07,000
We're in the eighth inning.

1375
01:38:07,000 --> 01:38:09,000
Here's Joe Sudeikis and here's Frank Lester.

1376
01:38:09,000 --> 01:38:13,000
And Colman struck Sudeikis out both times, he faced him.

1377
01:38:13,000 --> 01:38:16,000
Sudeikis switch under batting left and the first six to iron.

1378
01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:22,000
Low and inside, almost hit him in the leg, ball one.

1379
01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:24,000
And now Sudeikis wants the baseball examined.

1380
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:28,000
Colman flips it in to Larry McCoy.

1381
01:38:28,000 --> 01:38:34,000
And McCoy gives it back to the pitcher.

1382
01:38:34,000 --> 01:38:36,000
The Tigers have four runs on 11 hits.

1383
01:38:36,000 --> 01:38:39,000
The Yankees no runs, no hits.

1384
01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:41,000
Wind up by Colman and his six.

1385
01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:43,000
Ta-da, hit in the air to center field.

1386
01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:45,000
Stanley drifting to his right.

1387
01:38:45,000 --> 01:38:49,000
The Yankees under it and Stanley has it.

1388
01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:54,000
Sudeikis is retired, one out and Gene Michael will step in.

1389
01:38:54,000 --> 01:39:07,000
Twice Michael is crowded out to the first baseman Norm Cash on a 50.

1390
01:39:07,000 --> 01:39:10,000
Rodriguez comes in on the grass to third base, wide at the line.

1391
01:39:10,000 --> 01:39:12,000
Brinklin goes over towards second.

1392
01:39:12,000 --> 01:39:19,000
Colman straight away at the middle and the pitch in there for a call strike.

1393
01:39:19,000 --> 01:39:24,000
Horace Clark has come out on deck to bat for Jim Mason.

1394
01:39:24,000 --> 01:39:26,000
The wind up by Colman, the pitch.

1395
01:39:26,000 --> 01:39:34,000
Michael takes the ball just inside, one and one.

1396
01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:36,000
Tigers leading at four nothing.

1397
01:39:36,000 --> 01:39:38,000
Bases empty, one out.

1398
01:39:38,000 --> 01:39:40,000
The wind up by Colman, the pitch.

1399
01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:48,000
Swing, foul, fifth, strike two.

1400
01:39:48,000 --> 01:39:54,000
Top field plays Michael fairly shallow, especially Stanley in center field.

1401
01:39:54,000 --> 01:39:56,000
He's way in.

1402
01:39:56,000 --> 01:39:59,000
Now the wind up, one, two, pitch.

1403
01:39:59,000 --> 01:40:05,000
A bit high and the count evens two balls, two strikes.

1404
01:40:05,000 --> 01:40:12,000
Top half of the eighth inning, the Yankees looking for their first base hit of the ballgame.

1405
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:15,000
Yankees have won their first four games, trailing in this one four nothing.

1406
01:40:15,000 --> 01:40:16,000
There's the wind.

1407
01:40:16,000 --> 01:40:19,000
Here comes the pitch, high with a fastball.

1408
01:40:19,000 --> 01:40:31,000
Three and two to Michael.

1409
01:40:31,000 --> 01:40:41,000
Colman checks free inside and the payoff pitch hits up the middle base hit.

1410
01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:53,000
One hopper past Sebelin to second base but Michael breaks the spell with the Yankees first base hit of the ballgame and a solid shot right back up the middle.

1411
01:40:53,000 --> 01:41:09,000
Law runner at first, one out and Horace Clark will bat for Jim Mason. Clark, a switch hitter, will be batting lefty.

1412
01:41:09,000 --> 01:41:12,000
It's Colman's first time at bat this year.

1413
01:41:12,000 --> 01:41:14,000
Yes it is.

1414
01:41:14,000 --> 01:41:17,000
Pitch going as high, ball one. He's scored a run but he hasn't been to bat.

1415
01:41:17,000 --> 01:41:21,000
Got in as a pitch runner.

1416
01:41:21,000 --> 01:41:26,000
Michael gets Cleveland in one of the games in New York.

1417
01:41:26,000 --> 01:41:29,000
Michael takes the big lead at first. Cash is playing behind the base runner.

1418
01:41:29,000 --> 01:41:37,000
Here's the pitch to Clark on the outside corner for a strike, one and one.

1419
01:41:37,000 --> 01:41:43,000
Ralph House taking no chances as John Hiller warming up now to the Detroit Bulls, out of the field.

1420
01:41:43,000 --> 01:41:48,000
The pitch, down low.

1421
01:41:48,000 --> 01:41:51,000
Two balls and one strike.

1422
01:41:51,000 --> 01:42:00,000
A couple of years ago Clark himself broke up three no hitters late in the ballgame.

1423
01:42:00,000 --> 01:42:05,000
Seemed like one of them was here.

1424
01:42:05,000 --> 01:42:09,000
Alright, the two ball one strike pitch. Get right back to Colman. He has it.

1425
01:42:09,000 --> 01:42:15,000
Fins throws to second for one, back to first. It's a double play going one six three.

1426
01:42:15,000 --> 01:42:19,000
A one six three double play to retire the side.

1427
01:42:19,000 --> 01:42:23,000
For the Yankees no runs, their first base hit of the ballgame.

1428
01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:28,000
No errors, nobody left. And at the end of the top of the eighth inning it's Detroit four and New York nothing.

1429
01:42:28,000 --> 01:42:34,000
Yes, a lot of games think I'm the kind of guy who love them and leave them. Well it ain't true, see.

1430
01:42:34,000 --> 01:42:38,000
I'm still in love with my first love. I met her in the Spokies in Jersey.

1431
01:42:38,000 --> 01:42:41,000
Now don't knock it. Some of those Spokies, these were something to see, see.

1432
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:45,000
My first love was sitting at the bar. The most beautiful schooner of beer I ever saw, see.

1433
01:42:45,000 --> 01:42:51,000
It was draft beer. Fresh, smooth, creamy. The kind of beer you probably first loved when you were a punk.

1434
01:42:51,000 --> 01:42:56,000
Well I kept on loving draft beer ever since. So I never had no time for games, see.

1435
01:42:56,000 --> 01:43:01,000
And later when I found out I could get my first love out of a can of Peel's Real Grap, I was happy.

1436
01:43:01,000 --> 01:43:07,000
Look, if you want a beer you can fall in love with, try Peel's Real Grap.

1437
01:43:07,000 --> 01:43:11,000
It's just as fresh and smooth and creamy as the kind over in Jersey was.

1438
01:43:11,000 --> 01:43:18,000
And if you Peel brothers know what's good for you, you'll keep on making Peel's Real Grap, see.

1439
01:43:18,000 --> 01:43:27,000
Peel's Real Grap, the kind of beer you first loved.

1440
01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:32,000
Peel Brothers, Willamance at Massachusetts.

1441
01:43:32,000 --> 01:43:38,000
Horace Clark, who pinch hit for Jim Mason, will stay in the ball game. He'll play second for the Yankees.

1442
01:43:38,000 --> 01:43:45,000
And moving from second base to shortstop, Gene Michael, or the defensive change, Clark at second.

1443
01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:48,000
And Michael moving from second to short. Here's Frank.

1444
01:43:48,000 --> 01:43:53,000
And Jim Northrup, the only man who did not bat in the Tigers' seventh, leaves off the eighth.

1445
01:43:53,000 --> 01:44:02,000
Northrup is 0-3, left hand hitter.

1446
01:44:02,000 --> 01:44:05,000
John Buskey, ready to work, here's the pitch.

1447
01:44:05,000 --> 01:44:08,000
Outside ball one.

1448
01:44:08,000 --> 01:44:17,000
They call Northrup the Gray Fox, because of his almost completely gray hair, very prematurely gray.

1449
01:44:17,000 --> 01:44:26,000
1-0 delivery. No, got the corner. At the knees, 1-1.

1450
01:44:26,000 --> 01:44:32,000
Tigers, four runs, 11 hits. The Yankees, no runs and one hit. Gene Michael, single.

1451
01:44:32,000 --> 01:44:35,000
In the top half of the inning, first time they broke through on Coleman.

1452
01:44:35,000 --> 01:44:39,000
Buskey turns it loose, and it's popped up foul outside of third.

1453
01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:44,000
Nettles gives chase. He will not have a play. The ball is back in the seats.

1454
01:44:44,000 --> 01:44:48,000
Alstottelmeyer worked six and two-thirds innings, charged with four runs all-around.

1455
01:44:48,000 --> 01:44:52,000
He allowed ten base hits, walked one and struck out nobody.

1456
01:44:52,000 --> 01:45:05,000
Buskey has given up one base hit since relieving in the bottom half of the seventh.

1457
01:45:05,000 --> 01:45:11,000
Buskey steps back off the rubber. Looks down again for a sign.

1458
01:45:11,000 --> 01:45:19,000
And the 1-2 pitch to Northrup. Upside, two balls and two strikes.

1459
01:45:19,000 --> 01:45:30,000
In the ninth inning, the Yankees will have the top of the batting water coming up, White, Hegan, and Munson.

1460
01:45:30,000 --> 01:45:36,000
There's ball three upstairs, full count, three and two.

1461
01:45:36,000 --> 01:45:50,000
White, Hegan, Munson, and Yankee fans will be hoping Mercer, Bloomberg, Nettles, Sudeikis.

1462
01:45:50,000 --> 01:46:05,000
Buskey with a 3-2 pitch to Northrup. Foul, straight back.

1463
01:46:05,000 --> 01:46:09,000
Red Sox lead Baltimore 3-0 at the end of three.

1464
01:46:09,000 --> 01:46:13,000
Twins lead the White Sox 2-1 at the end of two.

1465
01:46:13,000 --> 01:46:16,000
And it's Cleveland 5-0 walking through in the third.

1466
01:46:16,000 --> 01:46:20,000
There's a high-fly ball, shadow left, White coming, Michael going.

1467
01:46:20,000 --> 01:46:25,000
Who's it going to be? It's Michael, the shortstop, who takes it in shadow left.

1468
01:46:25,000 --> 01:46:32,000
Northrup is retired, one down.

1469
01:46:32,000 --> 01:46:36,000
And now Al Kaelin. Kaelin is two for three.

1470
01:46:36,000 --> 01:46:52,000
He started off a three-run seventh inning with a single to center field.

1471
01:46:52,000 --> 01:46:58,000
First pitch to Kaelin, last ball for a strike.

1472
01:46:58,000 --> 01:47:03,000
Tuesday Yankee pitching kept the top four Tiger batters from getting a base hit.

1473
01:47:03,000 --> 01:47:09,000
They were combined over 17, Breckman, Rodriguez, Northrup, and Kaelin.

1474
01:47:09,000 --> 01:47:14,000
But this afternoon all but Northrup have come back with at least one base hit.

1475
01:47:14,000 --> 01:47:18,000
Kaelin takes the ball, it's one and one to the right-hand hitter.

1476
01:47:18,000 --> 01:47:22,000
Buskey rocks, kicks, and deals. Breaking pitch, popped up in a shadow right.

1477
01:47:22,000 --> 01:47:27,000
This may be trouble. Hegan going back, he's under it now and makes the catch.

1478
01:47:27,000 --> 01:47:31,000
Mike Hegan just turned his back on the infield, running as hard as he could.

1479
01:47:31,000 --> 01:47:37,000
He adjusts where the ball was, turned at the right moment and pulled it in.

1480
01:47:37,000 --> 01:47:43,000
Two outs, and Willie Horton the batter.

1481
01:47:43,000 --> 01:47:47,000
Horton is one for three. He had a double in the fourth inning,

1482
01:47:47,000 --> 01:47:49,000
but was thrown out by a stretcher into a triple.

1483
01:47:49,000 --> 01:47:55,000
Bloomberg to Michael Renettos.

1484
01:47:55,000 --> 01:47:59,000
Again this afternoon the Yankees have had fine defensive play,

1485
01:47:59,000 --> 01:48:01,000
turned over two double plays in the ball game.

1486
01:48:01,000 --> 01:48:04,000
Fitch to Horton on the inside corner, strike one.

1487
01:48:04,000 --> 01:48:07,000
The elements picked up five runs in the bottom of the seventh.

1488
01:48:07,000 --> 01:48:13,000
They now lead the Cardinals seven to six after seven.

1489
01:48:13,000 --> 01:48:17,000
Whoo! Five runs. Well, it can be done.

1490
01:48:17,000 --> 01:48:20,000
Cardinals used three pitchers that inning.

1491
01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:23,000
What the Yankees need to do here in the ninth.

1492
01:48:23,000 --> 01:48:26,000
Horton line drive, base hit to left field.

1493
01:48:26,000 --> 01:48:29,000
Roy White down on one, he feels the ball.

1494
01:48:29,000 --> 01:48:34,000
And Horton is on with his second base hit, giving him a two for four afternoon.

1495
01:48:34,000 --> 01:48:39,000
Second hit off Busky at number 12 for Detroit.

1496
01:48:39,000 --> 01:48:44,000
The batter will be Norm Cash. Hegan will not hold Horton on at first base.

1497
01:48:44,000 --> 01:49:03,000
Cash is two for three, has a single and a double.

1498
01:49:03,000 --> 01:49:20,000
Busky to the belt and turns it loose, strike one called.

1499
01:49:20,000 --> 01:49:24,000
Cash has been with the Tigers since 1960, Bill, so that would be 15 years, wouldn't it?

1500
01:49:24,000 --> 01:49:28,000
It's a fly ball to left center, Roy White is waiting for it.

1501
01:49:28,000 --> 01:49:32,000
Under it, and White has it three times aside.

1502
01:49:32,000 --> 01:49:35,000
When he tried in the eighth, no runs, the base hit, the man is left.

1503
01:49:35,000 --> 01:49:40,000
At the end of eighth, the score, the Tigers four and the Yankees nothing.

1504
01:49:40,000 --> 01:49:45,000
I don't know. I really can't say how many cigarettes I smoke in a day.

1505
01:49:45,000 --> 01:49:47,000
Sometimes I don't even know I'm lighting one.

1506
01:49:47,000 --> 01:49:50,000
I pick up the phone, I pick up a cigarette automatically.

1507
01:49:50,000 --> 01:49:55,000
Sit down with the paper, light up a cigarette, wait for the bus, smoke a cigarette.

1508
01:49:55,000 --> 01:49:58,000
The fact of the thing, I reach, I reach.

1509
01:49:58,000 --> 01:50:04,000
Sometimes I have a cigarette just because I see someone else lighting up, even someone I'm just watching on television.

1510
01:50:04,000 --> 01:50:08,000
It's ridiculous. I smoke most of them without even thinking.

1511
01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:14,000
I bet if I really thought about all the cigarettes I smoke automatically, I probably wouldn't smoke them.

1512
01:50:14,000 --> 01:50:18,000
Now if I didn't smoke them, I'd automatically cut down.

1513
01:50:18,000 --> 01:50:20,000
What a good idea.

1514
01:50:20,000 --> 01:50:23,000
Cutting down is always a good idea.

1515
01:50:23,000 --> 01:50:28,000
The U.S. Public Health Service has more ways for smokers to help themselves.

1516
01:50:28,000 --> 01:50:31,000
Send for them. They're free.

1517
01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:41,000
Just mail a postcard with your name and address to Automatic Rockville, Maryland, 20852.

1518
01:50:41,000 --> 01:50:45,000
That's the Yankees last chance Frank.

1519
01:50:45,000 --> 01:50:47,000
Here they're down four nothing here.

1520
01:50:47,000 --> 01:50:51,000
We go into the top of the ninth and the Yankees have the top of the batting order up.

1521
01:50:51,000 --> 01:50:55,000
Roy White will try to get something started. Roy has been hit twice with a pitch.

1522
01:50:55,000 --> 01:51:06,000
Another time up he hit back to the pitcher, Baldwin.

1523
01:51:06,000 --> 01:51:11,000
Baldwin ready to work to Roy and the first pitch, taking high ball one.

1524
01:51:11,000 --> 01:51:14,000
Think about the big winners in the American League over the past three years.

1525
01:51:14,000 --> 01:51:20,000
You think of Catfish Hunter of Oakland, Jim Palmer in Baltimore, Wilbur Wood at Chicago,

1526
01:51:20,000 --> 01:51:22,000
Mickey Lawlitch here at Detroit.

1527
01:51:22,000 --> 01:51:27,000
White has a fly ball to deep right. This one is going. It's going to be out of here.

1528
01:51:27,000 --> 01:51:32,000
In the upper deck hit one of the support posts in the upper deck.

1529
01:51:32,000 --> 01:51:35,000
And Roy White has put the Yankees on the scoreboard.

1530
01:51:35,000 --> 01:51:38,000
It got mixed up with those two times he got hit.

1531
01:51:38,000 --> 01:51:41,000
At least the first person he makes up for it.

1532
01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:43,000
Yankees still down by three though.

1533
01:51:43,000 --> 01:51:45,000
That's only their second hit off Coleman.

1534
01:51:45,000 --> 01:51:51,000
And that's Roy's first long run of the year.

1535
01:51:51,000 --> 01:51:56,000
You think about those pitchers and well, Wilbur Wood with all the starts he gets

1536
01:51:56,000 --> 01:52:01,000
is the winningest pitcher over the last three years. He's won 70.

1537
01:52:01,000 --> 01:52:12,000
Pollard, Hunter, and Lawlitch have all won 63 games over the last three years.

1538
01:52:12,000 --> 01:52:16,000
One's pitch to Higgins down low ball one.

1539
01:52:16,000 --> 01:52:24,000
And Joe Coleman's name doesn't come up, but you know in the last three years Bill Coleman has won 62 ball games.

1540
01:52:24,000 --> 01:52:29,000
One O'Dale, fastball for a strike to Higgins.

1541
01:52:29,000 --> 01:52:31,000
Jim is over three.

1542
01:52:31,000 --> 01:52:36,000
They're in the series of course reunited with his dad who is one of Ralph House coaches here in Detroit now.

1543
01:52:36,000 --> 01:52:38,000
One long pitch to Mike.

1544
01:52:38,000 --> 01:52:40,000
Swing on him, that's strike two.

1545
01:52:40,000 --> 01:52:44,000
I think part of the reason he's won a lot of those games too is he's added that pork ball,

1546
01:52:44,000 --> 01:52:46,000
which really does wonders for him.

1547
01:52:46,000 --> 01:52:52,000
And he can handle left-handers well with it.

1548
01:52:52,000 --> 01:53:00,000
Higgins wants time now. Let's see a ball got loose down in the Detroit bullpen where Hiller is warming up again.

1549
01:53:00,000 --> 01:53:03,000
Thurman-Munson is on deck. It's 4-1 Detroit.

1550
01:53:03,000 --> 01:53:07,000
Coleman deals and Higgins takes low.

1551
01:53:07,000 --> 01:53:20,000
Nobody on, nobody out. Roy White lead off the ninth with a home run.

1552
01:53:20,000 --> 01:53:23,000
Coleman has his side from Prianne and a 2-2 pitch.

1553
01:53:23,000 --> 01:53:27,000
Swing and a missed strike three.

1554
01:53:27,000 --> 01:53:32,000
That's the third time Coleman has struck Higgins out.

1555
01:53:32,000 --> 01:53:40,000
His other two strikeouts have been Sudeikis for a total of five.

1556
01:53:40,000 --> 01:53:43,000
One out, nobody out, and Thurman-Munson steps in.

1557
01:53:43,000 --> 01:53:52,000
Thurman has grounded out the first, fly to center, and bounce to third.

1558
01:53:52,000 --> 01:54:03,000
Bobby Mercer is on deck.

1559
01:54:03,000 --> 01:54:13,000
First pitch, a strike called, looked like a slider.

1560
01:54:13,000 --> 01:54:18,000
That's another big thing for Coleman too, Bill, is he's been backed by the Tigers, not the Senators, the last three years.

1561
01:54:18,000 --> 01:54:22,000
A few more runs scored. Ground ball to third is foul.

1562
01:54:22,000 --> 01:54:25,000
Of course he brought pretty good Enfield over here with him.

1563
01:54:25,000 --> 01:54:32,000
He brought the left side of the Tiger Enfield, Rodriguez and Brinkman with him, and that's bound to help.

1564
01:54:32,000 --> 01:54:37,000
He brought his defense with him and got a little more offense.

1565
01:54:37,000 --> 01:54:41,000
But he is, he's certainly one of the better pitchers in the league.

1566
01:54:41,000 --> 01:54:44,000
0-2 delivery. Munson, it's a bouncer right back to Coleman.

1567
01:54:44,000 --> 01:54:49,000
He's got your habit, flips it over to Cash at first base, Munson is out two down.

1568
01:54:49,000 --> 01:54:53,000
What is Denny McLean doing?

1569
01:54:53,000 --> 01:54:58,000
I heard he supposedly had a TV show around here someplace, he was trying to write a book.

1570
01:54:58,000 --> 01:55:09,000
TV, radio show, talk show, some kind.

1571
01:55:09,000 --> 01:55:19,000
He's probably at Maddox within that deal, Maddox and McLean, Coleman, Brinkman, Rodriguez.

1572
01:55:19,000 --> 01:55:23,000
All right, two outs and nobody on. Bobby Mercer has walked once, crowded out twice.

1573
01:55:23,000 --> 01:55:25,000
He's over two and looks at the strike.

1574
01:55:25,000 --> 01:55:32,000
There again the fork ball from Joe Coleman, and he does throw a good one.

1575
01:55:32,000 --> 01:55:39,000
The windup and the 0-1 pitch. Flat armor is ripped now down the right side.

1576
01:55:39,000 --> 01:55:52,000
Bouncing into the Yankee bullpen.

1577
01:55:52,000 --> 01:55:57,000
No balls and two strikes, two outs, the base is empty, Tigers leading 4-1 here in the ninth inning.

1578
01:55:57,000 --> 01:56:02,000
Coleman rocks, kicks and delivers. Mercer swings, brown ball is hit to second.

1579
01:56:02,000 --> 01:56:05,000
Settling it up with it, spins, throws to Cash, the ball game is over.

1580
01:56:05,000 --> 01:56:10,000
And after winning their first four games, the Yankees are knocked out to satchet out.

1581
01:56:10,000 --> 01:56:14,000
In the ninth inning, the Yankees score one run on one hit Roy White's homer.

1582
01:56:14,000 --> 01:56:16,000
No errors and nobody left.

1583
01:56:16,000 --> 01:56:19,000
Bill White will have the totals and the recap for you in a moment.

1584
01:56:19,000 --> 01:56:28,000
The Yankees score, the Tigers four and the Yankees one.

1585
01:56:28,000 --> 01:56:51,000
The Yankees are the Yankees.

1586
01:56:51,000 --> 01:57:03,000
Smokey has been telling us to be careful with fire for over 30 years.

1587
01:57:03,000 --> 01:57:08,000
Yet last year we still started over 100,000 careless forest fires.

1588
01:57:08,000 --> 01:57:18,000
When will we ever learn?

1589
01:57:18,000 --> 01:57:25,000
The Public Service on behalf of the Forest Service State Foresters and the Ad Council.

1590
01:57:25,000 --> 01:57:34,000
Well here at Tiger Stadium was all Joe Coleman and the Tigers as the Tigers beat the Yankees by a score of 4-1.

1591
01:57:34,000 --> 01:57:42,000
The Tigers got off in the third inning on a double by Gary Sutherland, his fifth straight hit against the Yankees this two game series.

1592
01:57:42,000 --> 01:57:46,000
And Arrelo Rodriguez single to center to score Sutherland.

1593
01:57:46,000 --> 01:57:50,000
And that's all the Tigers picked up in the third.

1594
01:57:50,000 --> 01:57:57,000
They took a 1-0 lead and they added three more in the seventh kept by a two run home run by Mickey Stanley.

1595
01:57:57,000 --> 01:58:01,000
And they picked up three runs on four hits and it was 4-0 the Tigers.

1596
01:58:01,000 --> 01:58:07,000
And Roy White at his first home run of the year under the right field seats in the upper deck in the night, they got the Yankees on the board.

1597
