00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:15,000
The San Francisco Giants faced the Chicago Cubs at Scottsdale Stadium in Arizona for a spring training game on March 8, 1972.

3
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:23,000
San Francisco was managed by Charlie Fox and were coming off a strong season in 1971, despite losing to the Pirates in the NLCS.

4
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:28,000
Chicago was managed by Leo De Rocher in his seventh and what would turn out to be his final season with the Cubs.

5
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:34,000
This audio recording is from the San Francisco Radio broadcast featuring announcers Lon Simmons and Bill Thompson.

6
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:39,000
Well, that is the bat, Willie May, from the leadoff position. May from the leadoff play center field.

7
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:47,000
Keto Quintes batting number two, playing second base. Another experiment, Dave Kingman batting number three and playing third base.

8
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:54,000
Willie McCovey at first base, batting number four. Bobby Bonds hitting fifth, playing in right field.

9
00:00:54,000 --> 00:01:01,000
Kenny Henderson in left field, batting number six. Fran Healy doing the catching and batting seventh.

10
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:07,000
Chris Spire, who is conducting an experiment of his own this year. He's trying switch hitting.

11
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:15,000
He is batting eighth. And Don Carrithers, who won five and lost three for the Giants last year, both as a starter and reliever.

12
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,000
He will be on the mound for the Giants.

13
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:25,000
The Cubs, Rick Mundy acquired and traded from the Oakland A's and traded from the center left-hander Ken Holzman to open.

14
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:32,000
He will be in center field and might be the answer to the Chicago Cubs' difficulties in the past in center field.

15
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:39,000
Glenn Beckert will be at second base, batting number two. Billy Williams in left field, hitting number three.

16
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:46,000
Ron Sando or Joe Capitone at first base, hitting fourth. Ron Sando batting number five and playing third base.

17
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:51,000
Jose Carden now in right field, hitting sixth. Don Kessinger, the shortstop, batting seventh.

18
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:56,000
Ken Rudolph is the catcher hitting eighth. And Ferguson Jenkins prepares for the first pitch.

19
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:00,000
The right-hander delivers to Willie Mays, who takes high and inside for a ball, 1-0.

20
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:08,000
The Cy Young winner, Ferguson Jenkins, five consecutive seasons, the 20-game winner, 24 wins last year.

21
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:14,000
Mays takes low and away for a ball two. Jenkins with a good fastball and excellent slider.

22
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:20,000
This is the 25th spring opener for the Giants in Arizona.

23
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:26,000
As Mays bats against Ferguson Jenkins, the outfield is around to the left. The infield backed up against Willie.

24
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,000
Willie bluffs a bunch, takes inside for ball three.

25
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:37,000
Willie will be doing some things up there as the leadoff man that he doesn't do in the number three position, of course.

26
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:47,000
Willie will be trying to get his way on ahead of the Kingman's McCuffys to follow. Strike call, three and one.

27
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:53,000
Art Williams, the home plate umpire, Paul Runge at first, and Hal Vann at third.

28
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:59,000
Williams, who umpired here in spring training last year, a minor league umpire, who will probably be in the middle.

29
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:05,000
Mays deserves a drive to deep left field. That one going back all the way to the fence and waiting for it in left field.

30
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:12,000
He's got the ball. Billy Williams dropped the ball. That was 370 feet from the plate.

31
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:18,000
Williams backed up against the wall and in this high sky of Arizona and looking into the sun,

32
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:23,000
Williams dropped the ball right by the barrier and Mays winds up at second base.

33
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,000
The next batter, number 23, People Products and Service.

34
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:35,000
Three of the many reasons you'll want to stop at Standard Stations and Chevron Dealers along the Chevron way.

35
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:40,000

37
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:52,000
Mays at second base, Tito Point is up here batting left handed. He takes his strike.

38
00:03:52,000 --> 00:04:02,000
The defense double play combination now will be, both will be switch hitting at least for a time as Chris Fier is trying it and Tito has for the past few years.

39
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,000
And Tito batting left handed against the right hander Jenkins.

40
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Fitch to Tito. Broken bat, blooper down the right field line. If that stays fair, it's trouble. It's a fair ball.

41
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:17,000
Mays will come in to score. 26 for second base. He has a broken bat double and the Giants lead it by a score of 1 to nothing.

42
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:22,000
As the first two hitters for the Giants score the first run of the season.

43
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:28,000
And air charged to Williams on that drop fly ball. This is a double for 20.

44
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:34,000
Mays hit the ball hard to left field. A high drive that appeared for a moment as though it had a chance of getting out of here.

45
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,000
Williams backed up to the fence and then dropped the ball.

46
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:44,000
Then Tito hit one off the end of the bat, broke the bat, and blooped it in down the right field line for a double.

47
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,000
He's at second and Dave Kingman, right hand batter up here, swings and misses strike one.

48
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Kingman is going to wear out left handers. He's going to have to learn a bit about hitting the right handers.

49
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:58,000
But he batted 278 in his brief stint with the Giants last year, 41 games.

50
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:03,000
He had six home runs, 10 doubles, and two triples.

51
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:08,000
A big problem this year for the young fella is whether he can concentrate on two things.

52
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:15,000
A curve is low for a ball one on one, that is trying to hit major league pitching and trying to play third base, a new position for him.

53
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:21,000
He is an excellent athlete. A surprising quickness for fellow 6'6".

54
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,000
And he needs the quickness at third base.

55
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:32,000
Of course, this is not to say that Dave Kingman is going to play third base because there's a fella by the name of Alan Gallagher that played it last year that figures the job was his.

56
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,000
Pitch to Kingman a curve low for a ball.

57
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:40,000
The obvious reason that they want Kingman in at third base is for his power hitting.

58
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:46,000
Bobby Bonds discussing the number three spot in the batting order said, well, he's not too sure about maize batting.

59
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:53,000
First maize has the experience to bat third. He says, after you've made outs, pitch to Kingman is low for a ball.

60
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:59,000
He says, batting in the number three spot and after you've made outs that ended innings about five or six consecutive times,

61
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:07,000
you'll notice when you look down the bench that Willie McCovey is sort of looking at you.

62
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Kingman waiting as Jenkins looks back at second base.

63
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,000
The pitch to the big guy, he checks his swing and takes outside for ball four.

64
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,000
Close pitch, but Kingman held up on the delivery.

65
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:26,000
He goes to first base. One is at second and Willie McCovey coming back from neacer three in the offseason.

66
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:32,000
Willie last year was plagued by bad knee all season long without a good cheer of the year.

67
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,000
Two seventy-seven batting average, eighteen home runs, seventy RBI.

68
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,000
A good season for most people, not a good one for McCovey.

69
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:47,000
Willie has hit three home runs in inter-squad games so far this spring.

70
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,000
And he's up here to bat left-handed against Jenkins as the outfield is well around to the right and backed up.

71
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:56,000
The pitch has hit high and foul to the right over near the stands going over as Pepitone long run.

72
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:01,000
It will be back into the seats as Pepitone and Becherts, the second baseman, go over to the low railing.

73
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,000
At capacity, how's it turn away?

74
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:13,000
Out there is a standing room crowd out behind the chain-link fence in the right field corner in foul territory.

75
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,000
But it is jammed here in Scottsdale for this one.

76
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,000
They had to turn people away.

77
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,000
Everyone counts on McCovey, nobody down, a run in.

78
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,000
Mays safe on Billy Williams there.

79
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,000
Fwonty's doubled him home.

80
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:25,000
And Kingman walked.

81
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,000
Kingman at first.

82
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,000
Fwonty's at second.

83
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,000
Kessinger breaks in behind.

84
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,000
Tito at second base.

85
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,000
The pitch outside for a ball.

86
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,000
Jenkins having his control problems.

87
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:39,000
Jenkins, a fellow that in the regular season, you have to get two in the first couple of innings.

88
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:47,000
If he gets by the first two, and this is true of a lot of the good pitchers that have a little trouble settling down the first couple of innings,

89
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:51,000
if they get by that and you give them a run or something, give them a lead.

90
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,000
They're tough.

91
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:57,000
Jenkins pitched to McCovey, a breaking pitch high for a ball.

92
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:05,000
Two and one.

93
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,000
One to nothing, the Giants in front.

94
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:11,000
Spring training opened for the Giants last year.

95
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,000
15 and 11 record in spring training games.

96
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:18,000
The Cubs were their leading team in the Cactus League play.

97
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,000
Giants went on to win the Western Division Championship.

98
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,000
Swing and a looper out into short left.

99
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,000
That one's going to drop in in front of Williams.

100
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,000
Fwonty's is heading for the play.

101
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,000
Williams has the ball bounced off his glove.

102
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,000
Kingman goes to third.

103
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,000
McCovey's at first with a bloop single.

104
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:34,000
And Fwonty's comes in with a second run.

105
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,000
So they're wearing Jenkins out.

106
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:41,000
A dropped fly ball and two pop flies off the end of the bat that dropped in.

107
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,000
McCovey has an RBI single.

108
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,000
The Giants in front, two to nothing.

109
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:52,000
The old saying about better to be lucky than good.

110
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,000
Well, McCovey is definitely good.

111
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,000
In that time he was very lucky.

112
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,000
So he had both things going for him.

113
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,000
Now Bobby Barnes in the number five spot.

114
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:07,000
Barnes, the Giants' leading hitter last year, an RBI, home runs, takes low for a ball.

115
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,000
One and oh.

116
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,000
And third is Kingman at first is McCovey.

117
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,000
Gioia Malfatano, a new member of the Giants.

118
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:17,000
He was formerly on the first base coaching line for the Cubs.

119
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:23,000
He is coaching at first base for San Francisco and Johnny McNamara over at third.

120
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:28,000
Outfield to the left for Barnes, backed up, double play position in the infield.

121
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:40,000
Curve is outside for a ball.

122
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,000
Two and oh count on Barnes.

123
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:46,000
McCovey was a short lead at first and Kingman moves away from third base.

124
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:51,000
Jenkins from the stretch, the pitch, top foul out of play.

125
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,000
Two and one.

126
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,000
Barnes batted 288 last year.

127
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:05,000
Barnes, as most of the Giants last year, suffered through injury torment for a while.

128
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,000
He was sidelined for a short period of time.

129
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:14,000
It seemed like everybody was sick, lame, and halted one time or another during that 71 season.

130
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,000
Blowing away for a ball three.

131
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:22,000
Jenkins having difficulty finding the play.

132
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,000
And he's behind three and one to Barnes.

133
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:30,000
He hasn't been retired yet, although it may have been on the fly ball to Williams that Williams dropped for an error.

134
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,000
Three-one pitch.

135
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,000
Ponds grounded to shortstop, could be two.

136
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:34,000
Over to second for one.

137
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,000
Becker's throw to first.

138
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,000
In time, double play.

139
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:43,000
Ponds bounding into a double play from Kessinger to Becker to Pepitone.

140
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,000
So the Cubs who were having trouble getting one get two on that play.

141
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:53,000
And Kenny Henderson will be the batter.

142
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,000
Dave Kingman came in to score on that double play.

143
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:06,000
So the Giants now have themselves a three to nothing margin as Kingman crosses the plate and the Cubs were converting the two out.

144
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,000
Kenny Henderson fouls the first pitch back batting left-handed.

145
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,000
Kenny is switch batter.

146
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,000
Strike one count.

147
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,000
Henderson.

148
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:20,000
Also, Ken started out brilliantly last year and then he was hurt.

149
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:25,000
Pond up hitting 264 with 15 home runs, 65 RBIs.

150
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:29,000
Takes outside for a ball.

151
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:35,000
Count of a ball and a strike.

152
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,000
One-and-one count to Henderson.

153
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,000
Base is empty.

154
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:39,000
Three runs in.

155
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:40,000
Pitch outside for a ball.

156
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,000
Jenkins missing with that one and it's two and one.

157
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:46,000
Fran Healy on deck.

158
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:52,000
Scheduled to be Jenkins, Pappas, and Regan for the Cubs.

159
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,000
Carruthers, Dequisto.

160
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,000
Strike called and John Cumberland for the Giants.

161
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,000
Two-and-one count to Henderson.

162
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,000
Giants in front, three to nothing.

163
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,000
May is safe on an error.

164
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:08,000
Pwanty's doubled him home.

165
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,000
Kingman walks.

166
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,000
McCovey singles.

167
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,000
Ground ball to Sharpley hits the first.

168
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,000
Pepitone knocks it down and rolls away from it and picks it up.

169
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,000
Throws the first to Jenkins covering inside.

170
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:21,000
Good play by Pepitone on a shot hit by Henderson.

171
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:28,000
And here in the first inning for the Giants, three runs on two hits, one error, and no one left on.

172
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,000
We go to the bottom of the first.

173
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,000
The Giants lead three to nothing.

174
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,000
You know.

175
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,000
Don Carruthers, young right-hander for the Giants.

176
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:42,000
Don, well, there are a lot of jobs open on the pitching staff.

177
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,000
And Don is working for one of those.

178
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:51,000
Don said before the game, Sam McDowell is known as a character before he got to the Giants.

179
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,000
And he's not going to do anything related to ruin that image.

180
00:12:55,000 --> 00:13:00,000
He said to Carruthers, Carruthers was sitting in the dressing room for the game in the clubhouse.

181
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:05,000
And he said to manager Charlie Fox, he said, who's pitching today?

182
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,000
And Fox says Carruthers is starting.

183
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:16,000
And McDowell says that's how we're trying to win.

184
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,000
Rick Mundy will lead off, left-hand batter.

185
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:23,000
The fellow trying to answer the center field problems of the Chicago Cubs takes a fastball outside for a ball one-on-o.

186
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:27,000
The Giants defensively, Henderson in left, Mays in center, Barnes in right.

187
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:33,000
Kingman at third, Spire at short, 20s at second, McCovey at first, Dan Healy the catcher.

188
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,000
Carruthers deals off to Mundy.

189
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:39,000
Top foul out of play and it's a ball and a strike.

190
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:45,000
Carruthers has to keep the ball down.

191
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,000
That's a fine shutout against Houston.

192
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:53,000
Any shutout to pitch is a fine one, I guess.

193
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:59,000
Kingman, besides having to learn how to pick up the ball and throw it, is going to have to learn about positioning himself at third.

194
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:03,000
There's a drive deep to left field down the line, twisting away from Henderson.

195
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:08,000
It lands a one-hop, picked off by Henderson, and Mundy has himself an off-field double.

196
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,000
Mundy hits that ball hard to the opposite field.

197
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Henderson chased it down and got it back to the infield, but Mundy had himself a double.

198
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:24,000
Each team starts off with a runner at second base on a drive to left field.

199
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:30,000
Rick Mundy, in first appearance in a game as the Chicago Cubs, doubles the left field.

200
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:36,000
Glenn Beckert will be the batter, right-hand batting second base and one of the toughest men in baseball to strike out.

201
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:43,000
It's last year, 3-42.

202
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:49,000
Look at second by Carruthers, the pitch to Beckert, a breaking pitch for a strike, 0-1.

203
00:14:49,000 --> 00:15:02,000
Think about Mr. Valuble, Glenn Beckert certainly has come along to be one of the top Chicago Cubs in the field and at the plate.

204
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:06,000
Spire bluffing behind Mundy at second, the pitch to Beckert popped up into short left.

205
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,000
This may be one of those little loopers that dropped in.

206
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,000
Henderson comes on, he makes the catch.

207
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:13,000
Kenny Henderson, a one-handed catch.

208
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:17,000
This is something, the way they're hitting him off the fifth and off the end of the bat.

209
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:24,000
That one popped into short left, but Henderson with his good speed was able to get there to make the one-handed catch.

210
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,000
Name the car you consider the most dependable.

211
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,000
Chevy Nova, right?

212
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,000
Novas earned the admiration of just about everybody with a reputation like that.

213
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:36,000
You'd expect the 72 Nova to be the best car you ever owned.

214
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,000
Billy Williams.

215
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:47,000
The guy always looks like he has to hit 600 and hit 60 home runs every year, left-hand batter with a smooth swing and baseball.

216
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:57,000
At second base is Mundy, he remains there as Henderson caught Beckert's bid for a base hit, a strike call in the knees and the outside.

217
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,000
Where in the bottom of the first, the Giants lead 3-0, the Cubs have a runner.

218
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:09,000
At second base, Rick Mundy, Billy Williams, who hit 3-0-1 last year, drove in 93 runs with 28 home runs.

219
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:13,000
He's up here, one strike pitch, popped up down the left field line, a long run for Henderson.

220
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:18,000
He is drifting near the line, he's there and makes the catch for the second out.

221
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:28,000
Williams flies the left and it's obvious from the swings here by the two left-hand hitters that Carruthers is putting quite a bit on the pitch, is getting it by those left-handers.

222
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:39,000
Williams flying out to the off field, Mundy doubling to the off field and now another left-hand batter, Joe Pepitone is up here.

223
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:51,000
Joe spent the off season as the lead role in the hair.

224
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,000
Pepitone waiting, Mundy at second base.

225
00:16:54,000 --> 00:17:01,000
Mundy looks back, the pitch to Pepitone, grounded to second base, Mundy scoops it up, throws the first at the scoreless inning for Carruthers.

226
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:07,000
Despite the leadoff double, hair in the first, no runs on the hit, no errors and a runner left on.

227
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:12,000
At the end of one, the Giants 3 and the Cubs nothing.

228
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:16,000
I'd like to talk to you guys about your wives, about something they might be missing.

229
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,000
No, don't worry, I'm not about to play marriage counselor.

230
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:23,000
I just want to remind you that your wife may not have a Bank of America card of her own.

231
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,000
You know how useful your Bank of America card is to you.

232
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:31,000
Well, if your Bank of America card is useful to you, it can be just as useful, maybe even more so, to a woman.

233
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:35,000
Say for instance she gets into an emergency situation with a car when you're not around.

234
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,000
A Bank of America card could really come in handy.

235
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,000
Or what about the end of the month when you want to know where all the money went?

236
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:46,000
If she had used a Bank of America card, she'd have a written record of all her purchases.

237
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:51,000
And think about how you can cut down on the time it takes to write all those separate checks.

238
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:57,000
Add it all up and see if you don't agree that your wife should have a Bank of America card too.

239
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:04,000
Bank of America card, think of it as money, his and hers money.

240
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:10,000
A little touchy humor there.

241
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:14,000
We go to the second inning.

242
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:21,000
And as long as this is spring trading, let Bill Thompson get the kinks out of his Thompson.

243
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:26,000
Catcher Fran Healy hitting seventh in the Giants or deleted off in shortstop crisp fire

244
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,000
and pitcher Don Gridders against Ferguson Jenkins here in the top of inning number two.

245
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,000
How come you haven't asked me about my vacation yet?

246
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:37,000
We'll hear about that all through the season, I'm sure.

247
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,000
Right-hander Jenkins kicks and throws to the right-hander batting Healy who bounds it to third base foul.

248
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:49,000
He goes by Sano outside the line.

249
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:54,000
Healy last year got off to a great start for the Giants, particularly in a pinch hitting role.

250
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,000
He had a big pinch hit all matter in the season to beat Houston.

251
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:04,000
Finished with a very respectable year batting 280, appearing in 47 games.

252
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:14,000
Fran 6-5, native of Massachusetts. Jenkins to the plate, breaking pitch low.

253
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:21,000
If Kingman plays third base, McCovey at first base and Healy behind the plate, you get some height.

254
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,000
Dodgers up, be careful about starting a fight this year.

255
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:32,000
1-1 pitch to Healy, low, ball two.

256
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,000
McCovey in field, the bits to the left are straight away.

257
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:38,000
The outfield the same way, Monday just slightly in the left center.

258
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:42,000
Williams deep in left, she keeps checking the sun.

259
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,000
It is going to be tough on all the outfielders.

260
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,000
Low again is Jenkins, ball three.

261
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:59,000
Jenkins drops behind on Healy, three balls and one strike.

262
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,000
Jenkins to the plate, 3-1.

263
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,000
Outside and low, breaking pitch, ball four.

264
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,000
Healy draws the watch, number two given up by Jenkins.

265
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,000
And Chris Spire, the Giants shortstop, will move in.

266
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:17,000
Chris, experimenting as a switch hitter, as Lon mentioned, will be making his first appearance against

267
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:21,000
any other than his own teammates as a left-handed batter.

268
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:26,000
Healy at first, nobody out. Top of the second, Giants lead three to nothing.

269
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,000
Jenkins from the stretch, misses low, ball one.

270
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,000
Sano crowds him on the grass at third.

271
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,000
Becker, Kessinger, short and up.

272
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:40,000
The outfield, shallow, with Mundy playing Spire as a late swinger to left center.

273
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:44,000
Jenkins gets the fastball over in the outside corner, 1-1 count.

274
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:48,000
Williams, shallow, near the line and left.

275
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:52,000
Cardinal, well off the line and right field.

276
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:56,000
Capiton, playing a step behind Healy at first base as Jenkins looks there, comes to the plate.

277
00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:06,000
Gets the outside corner called strike two.

278
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:10,000
Jenkins checking signs with catcher Ken Rudolph.

279
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:11,000
Healy away from first.

280
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:15,000
Breaking pitch, a half swing, and he checked in time.

281
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:20,000
Played up by Art Williams, saying Spire did not go through,

282
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:25,000
and King asked to check for the first base umpire Paul Runge.

283
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,000
The decision will stand.

284
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:31,000
Count on Spire, goes to two balls and two strikes.

285
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:32,000
Healy again moving away from first.

286
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,000
Capiton playing off the bag now.

287
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:36,000
Sort of first.

288
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,000
Capiton had to cross behind Healy to make the catch.

289
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:46,000
Jenkins throw over there.

290
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:50,000
Goes to the plate, 2-2, outside, a full count, three balls, two strikes.

291
00:21:50,000 --> 00:22:05,000
Yon deck circle for the Giants, Richard Dime, Carruthers.

292
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,000
Jenkins looking to Rudolph for a sign, as one he likes.

293
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,000
Quick throw to first, Healy back in.

294
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,000
So the full count, three and two.

295
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:19,000
Capiton now playing on the bag, holding Healy there.

296
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,000
Jenkins sets, 3-2 pitch.

297
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:25,000
Outside ball for those fire walks.

298
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,000
That pushes Healy up to second.

299
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:31,000
Third walk of Jenkins, in the second in a row.

300
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,000
The Giants batter will be Richard Dime, Carruthers.

301
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,000
Dime bats as he pitches, right-handed.

302
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:39,000
Carruthers checking with third base coach John McNamara.

303
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,000
The Cubs of course look for the bunt with the pitcher at the plate.

304
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,000
The runners at first and second and nobody out.

305
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,000
Sanna will try to anchor at third.

306
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,000
Kessinger will try to hold Healy close to second base.

307
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,000
Capiton, cradding it on the grass at first.

308
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,000
Outfield, shallow, playing Carruthers around to the right.

309
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,000
Carruthers around the bunt, fouls it off.

310
00:22:55,000 --> 00:23:00,000
Mask of Rudolph, strike one.

311
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,000
Note Pappas throwing the cup bullpen in left field.

312
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:08,000
Pappas scheduled to be the second of three cup pitchers in the afternoon.

313
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:16,000
No rules that say only three men can work.

314
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,000
A one-strike count on Carruthers.

315
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,000
Capiton weighing on the grass at first base.

316
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,000
Carruthers around the bunt, bunts it down to third base line.

317
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:24,000
It's a good bunt.

318
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,000
Sanna has to come into field, throws to first.

319
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,000
M. Dime with Becker covers.

320
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,000
Perfect bunt by Don Carruthers.

321
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:34,000
Right down the line, push it past Jenkins for Sanna to come in and make the play.

322
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,000
Healy goes to third, spire to second.

323
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,000
Carruthers retired on their sacrifice.

324
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,000
Sanna to Becker's cover.

325
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,000
And Willie Mays will be the Giants batter.

326
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:48,000
Next time you pull into a gas station, remember to pull out your Bank of America card.

327
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:51,000
It's money to get you where you want to go.

328
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:55,000
Mays, safe on Williams' error in the first inning, later scored the Giants' first run.

329
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,000
Mays had a towering drive to the left field fence.

330
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:03,000
Williams lost the ball in the sun, had it skip off the tip of his glove.

331
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:09,000
Cubs play the infield back as Jenkins works from a windup and Mays swings in a breaking pitch and misses, strike one.

332
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:17,000
Healy at third, spire at second, one out top of the second, and the Giants lead 3-0, threatening to get more.

333
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,000
Jenkins with a play.

334
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:23,000
Sliders a called strike on the outside corner.

335
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:27,000
There was the good slider that Lon mentioned.

336
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:31,000
Jenkins quickly in front of Mays, 0-2.

337
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:35,000
Big right hander under the motion, 0-2 pitch, breaking pitch, loop to left center field.

338
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,000
A long run for Williams. On the run, cannot get it.

339
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:44,000
Drops in front of him. One run scores, two run scores. Mays trying for second. He's got a sliding double.

340
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:48,000
Mays with a looping fly ball on the left center. It drops between Williams and Bundy.

341
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:53,000
Williams fielded the ball. Healy and Spire both score to put the Giants in front.

342
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:57,000
Mays has a double and two RBIs.

343
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:05,000
Tito Pouenis, who had a broken bat doubled on the right field line, his first time to drive in the Giants first run will be the batter.

344
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:15,000
Tito switch batter, batting left handed.

345
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,000
Jenkins now works in the stretch.

346
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:21,000
Bundy very shallow in center field. Williams the same way and left against Pouenis.

347
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,000
Jenkins with a play. Line drive, pass Becker.

348
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:29,000
Mays hit right field. Mays held up. Now comes the third. Will not try to score.

349
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:33,000
As Cardinal hustles the ball in a line drive just out of the reach of Glenn Beckert.

350
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,000
Mays had to hold up at second thinking Beckert might be able to make the catch.

351
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:41,000
The ball went through into right field. Willey moved over to third. Tito is on it first with a base hit.

352
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:48,000
Tito now two for two. And Tito hit that single about three times as hard as he hit the double in the first inning.

353
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:53,000
Here's Dave Kingman who walked this quarter a run in the first inning.

354
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:58,000
Giants with two runs in, one out. Runners at the corners. Mays at third, Pouenis at first.

355
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:07,000
The Cubs will play the infield double play deep.

356
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:12,000
Pouenis moving away from first. Jenkins looks there, comes to the play.

357
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:19,000
Kingman foul tips the first pitch into Rudolph's glove, strike one.

358
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:29,000
One strike out on the right end of batting Dave Kingman.

359
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:37,000
Jenkins sets up the belt, the O-1 pitch. Popped up foul off first base drifting back into the stands or

360
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:42,000
like over the seats into the parking lot.

361
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:48,000
Jenkins in front of Kingman, O-2.

362
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:52,000
Rudolph out to talk with the Cubs pitcher.

363
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:57,000
Conversation now breaks up as Rudolph heads back behind the plate.

364
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:04,000
Mays at third talking with Johnny McNamara. Willey standing on the back. Now will move away.

365
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:10,000
Pouenis is shorted at first.

366
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,000
Jenkins ready, O-2 pitch.

367
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:19,000
Fastball inside at the golf ball one. Kingman leaning over that plate, he's there to be looking for a breaking pitch.

368
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:25,000
Jenkins hummed one, fell high on the inside. Straightened Dave up in a hurry.

369
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:31,000
A ball and two strikes on the Giants third baseman.

370
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:36,000
Jenkins with a play. Breaking pitch, swung on it, missed, strike three.

371
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:42,000
Kingman down on strikes for out number two. Jenkins gets his first strike out. We pause for station identification.

372
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,000
This is the Golden West Radio Network.

373
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:52,000
If you want to hear the sounds of the city, listen to the Terry McGovern show, 4 to 8, right here on KSFO in San Francisco.

374
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:59,000
It's the sound of the city.

375
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:06,000
Willey McCovey with a bloop single to left center in the first inning to drive in a run to Giants batter.

376
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:11,000
McCovey checks takes low ball one. Mays at third, Pouenis at first, two outs, two runs in.

377
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,000
We're in the top of the second on the Giants lead five to nothing.

378
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:24,000
The opener of the Cactus League season from Scotchdale, Arizona. Sun baked Scotchdale, Arizona.

379
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:28,000
I heard that from you last year.

380
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,000
Jenkins delivers outside.

381
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:34,000
Ball pops out of Rudolph's club, but rolls only a couple of feet away.

382
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:45,000
Jenkins falls behind on McCovey, two balls and no strikes.

383
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:50,000
The 2-0 pitch to McCovey, swung on and missed, and McCovey had himself a rip.

384
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:54,000
Jenkins appeared to take a bit off the pitch.

385
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:58,000
McCovey had quite a swing.

386
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,000
A one and two count. Jenkins works quickly.

387
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:05,000
Breaking ball, line to right field. Cardinal is there, makes the catch up over his head.

388
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,000
McCovey hit it on the nose, but right at Cardinal for the outs.

389
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:12,000
The Giants in the second, two runs on two hits.

390
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,000
There were no errors. Two runners left on.

391
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:20,000
So at the end of an inning and a half, the Giants lead it by a score of five to nothing.

392
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:25,000
They estimate that Northern California will buy almost a half a million new cars this year.

393
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,000
And lots of those buyers will save considerable money at Allstate.

394
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:33,000
That's right, the Allstate auto finance plan through a cooperating lender.

395
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,000
You didn't know they had a finance plan, finance car?

396
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,000
Well, they do.

397
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:43,000
Or rather, your Allstate agent can help arrange a loan at a money-saving interest rate through the Allstate auto finance plan.

398
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,000
Here's what you do.

399
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:49,000
When you find a deal on the new car you want, talk to an Allstate agent.

400
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,000
They can usually help you save important money on the financing.

401
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,000
Some folks arrange for their loan in advance.

402
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,000
Others pick out their car first, then talk to Allstate.

403
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,000
It works either way.

404
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:03,000
Now's the time to save some money, and now's the time to look into the Allstate auto finance plan.

405
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:22,000
When it comes to insurance or financing your car, you're in good hands with Allstate.

406
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:27,000
For the Cubs, the first batter for the Cubs, the third baseman, right hand batting Ron Sano.

407
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,000
Sano hitting fifth in the order.

408
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:38,000
Followed by the right fielder Jose Cardinal and shortstop Don Kessinger.

409
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:47,000
Sano, really trimmed down for this early in the spring training.

410
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,000
Don through it, his kicks and throws.

411
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:58,000
Slider for a strike in the outside corner.

412
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:04,000
Sano, last year about at 267, takes just outside a 1-1 count.

413
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:12,000
Played in 154 games, had 148 hits, 21 home runs, 88 RBIs, swing and a miss on a breaking pitch.

414
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:17,000
Carruthers in front, a ball and two strikes.

415
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,000
Mundy opened the bottom of the first with a double to left off Carruthers,

416
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:24,000
then Don retired to next for a men's Becker and Williams on fly ball to left field,

417
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,000
and Pepitone on a ground ball, a second.

418
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:30,000
Now back to Carruthers, his spirit turns throws to first out number one.

419
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,000
Sano hit a hard one hopper.

420
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:38,000
Carruthers check out the glove, picked it up, turned it into an easy out.

421
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:43,000
The one is away and right hand batting Jose Cardinal will move in.

422
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,000
If you've got an apartment, you've got a lot to lose,

423
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,000
so it's smart to get some all-state renter's insurance

424
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:55,000
and protect your household furnishings against loss from fire, explosions, and many other hazards.

425
00:31:55,000 --> 00:32:07,000
Cardinal right in a batter, takes low and away, ball one.

426
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,000
Cardinal acquired from Milwaukee in the offseason.

427
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:14,000
Browns went up the middle, it'll go through in the center field for a base hit.

428
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:17,000
Mays charges in, bare hands it, throws quickly back to the infield.

429
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:21,000
Cardinal takes a big turn at first and then holds on.

430
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:29,000
Now with a second down off Carruthers, shortstop down, Kessinger will move in.

431
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:37,000
Kessinger batted 258 with the Cubs last season, a switch batter.

432
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:42,000
Kessinger successfully made the transition to a switch batter in the big leagues,

433
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,000
something that Chris Byers is now trying to do for the Giants.

434
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:51,000
Carruthers steps, throws to first base, drives Cardinal back to the bag, no tag by McCovey.

435
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,000
Cardinal at first, one out.

436
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:59,000
Bottom of the second, the Giants lead the Cubs, five to nothing.

437
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:07,000
Carruthers again throws to first and again Cardinal is back.

438
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:11,000
Giants play Kessinger as a bit of a lace winner.

439
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:16,000
He did not exaggerate against them as they did when he first started to switch it.

440
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:24,000
Carruthers fires, balls striking the outside corner.

441
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:30,000
Infield straight away, double play deep.

442
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,000
Carruthers takes a look at first, Cardinal with a good lead.

443
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:39,000
Don delivers just outside.

444
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:47,000
A one-one count on the Cubs shortstop Don Kessinger.

445
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:53,000
Kessinger had been the Cubs leadoff man, but the job is now being given to Rick Mundy.

446
00:33:53,000 --> 00:34:02,000
Cannot throw to first base, Cardinal back, beating the tag by McCovey.

447
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:07,000
Carruthers checking signs with Fran Healy.

448
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:16,000
The one-one pitch on its way, high, ball two.

449
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:22,000
Ferguson Jenkins has been scheduled to pitch three innings, apparently will not as he now has the warm-up jacket on his running in the outfield.

450
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:26,000
So I'm glad he pitches in those first two innings.

451
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:42,000
The two-one pitch to Kessinger, bounded foul to the right, and Carruthers and Kessinger go even at two and two.

452
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:52,000
Carruthers with a new baseball.

453
00:34:52,000 --> 00:35:00,000
Cardinal moving away from first as Carruthers looks there, comes to the plate to two, high, ball three.

454
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:14,000
Carruthers, got a full count, three balls, two strikes.

455
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:16,000
Carruthers off the mound.

456
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:27,000
Tito for one-e's yelling something into him. Carruthers nodding, okay, whatever was it Tito had to say.

457
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,000
Cardinal with his lead.

458
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:35,000
Carruthers steps off.

459
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,000
Now Don Reddy, Cardinal away from first.

460
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,000
He is running, pitches it high and near the left center field.

461
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:45,000
Mays drifting back, has room, makes the catch, throws back into the infield.

462
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:49,000
Cardinal was all the way down to second base, has to retreat to first.

463
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:53,000
Counter number 15, Ken Rudolph catches.

464
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,000
Counter Ken Rudolph.

465
00:35:56,000 --> 00:36:04,000
Rudolph was with the Cubs, San Antonio.

466
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:12,000
Last year with the Cubs farm club at Tacoma, but spent, he's getting 25 games with the big club, hitting 197, about a 285, and triple-A ball.

467
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:21,000
Right end of batter. Don Carruthers, pitches lice foul outside first base, strike one.

468
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:36,000
Cardinal at first, two outs. Bottom of the second, Giants in front five to nothing.

469
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:53,000
Carruthers sets, the 0-1 pitch, a bit too low, 1-1 count.

470
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:56,000
Cardinal getting a lead.

471
00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:03,000
Mr. Rudolph a let-up, misses low, ball two.

472
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:07,000
Two-and-one count.

473
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:12,000
Ken Rudolph, the Cubs right end of batting catcher.

474
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:16,000
Cardinal moves away from first.

475
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:20,000
2-1 pitch, lined in the center field for a base hit.

476
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:24,000
Cardinal will go to third as Mays over in the right center, cuts the ball off, throws in towards the plate.

477
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,000
Now Rudolph moves up to second base.

478
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:33,000
Ball off McCovey's glove, but Healy backing up fields it.

479
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:37,000
Mays, feeling the ball in right center, cut loose with a throw towards the plate.

480
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,000
It was a high throw over the head of the infielders.

481
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:48,000
And Rudolph, able to move up to second as Cardinal goes around to third.

482
00:37:48,000 --> 00:38:00,000
Left-hander batting Pat Burke will be a pinch better for Jenkins.

483
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:08,000
Burke, stockley-built.

484
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:14,000
The San Antonio, most of last year, about a 279.

485
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:22,000
Pat takes high for ball one. Burke, 6 feet, 210 pounds.

486
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:27,000
23, 24 years old.

487
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,000
An infielder by Treg.

488
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:33,000
The Reathers from a line-up misses high, ball two.

489
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:37,000
The Reathers behind on the pinch batter, Pat Burke, two balls and no strikes.

490
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,000
Jose Cardinal at third.

491
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,000
Ken Rudolph at second.

492
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:42,000
Two outs.

493
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:49,000
Giants in front, five to nothing in the bottom of the second.

494
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:50,000
Cardinal down the line.

495
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:54,000
The Reathers misses very high, ball three.

496
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:58,000
Healy, asked for time, runs out to the mound to talk with.

497
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:10,000
Giants young white, ender.

498
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:19,000
Healy now, moves back behind to play.

499
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:23,000
The on-deck circle for the Cubs, their leadoff man and center fielder, Rick Mundy.

500
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:37,000
Three outpitch, ball strike in the inside corner.

501
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:42,000
The Reathers, 3-1 pitch.

502
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,000
Just outside, ball four.

503
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:50,000
So Burke draws for one, first off the Reathers.

504
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:58,000
At most, up the base is Cardinal as at third, Rudolph at second.

505
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:09,000
And Rick Mundy, who doubled the left field in the first inning, will be the Chicago batter.

506
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:18,000
Mundy, with great speed, has always had good power to the opposite field and in the left center.

507
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:34,000
Finch runner for Burke, Jose Ortiz takes over at first base as a runner for Pat Burke.

508
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,000
Mundy, left hander, hitter.

509
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,000
Time, crew, there's some windup.

510
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,000
Fastball as a strike.

511
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:45,000
Cardinal at third, Rudolph at second, Ortiz at first.

512
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:55,000
Time, pleading five to nothing in the bottom of inning number two.

513
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:58,000
Reathers, kick, throws, 0-1.

514
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:04,000
Fastball, call, strike two.

515
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:13,000
The grandstand umpire is not in complete agreement with that call.

516
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:22,000
Reathers, in front of Mundy, 0-2.

517
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:25,000
Three runners lead away, the 0-2 pitch.

518
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:30,000
High and outside, Healy had to reach up the stab, that pitch, keep it from going to the screen,

519
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:36,000
and there's a sale.

520
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:40,000
One-and-two count.

521
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:46,000
Left hander batting Mundy, waiting at the plate.

522
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,000
The one-two pitch on its way.

523
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:52,000
Popped up behind second base, fire drifting back, Mays coming in.

524
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:56,000
It's Mays who calls, he's got it.

525
00:41:56,000 --> 00:42:01,000
The side retired on a pop fly, the Willie Mays in very short center field.

526
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:06,000
Now if the Reathers gets out of the inning, the Cubs no runs on two hits, no jointers,

527
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:13,000
three runners left at the end of two full, the Giants five, the Cubs nothing.

528
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:17,000
Well we've mentioned how fast the spring training get around this year.

529
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:21,000
It's not going to be too long until opening day at Candlestick Park either.

530
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:27,000
Opening day tickets for Thursday, it's a Thursday opener this year, April 6th against San Diego.

531
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:32,000
Opening day tickets are available, $4.50 for box seats, $3.50 for reserves.

532
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:37,000
You can write to the Giants ticket office, Candlestick Park, San Francisco, 94124.

533
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:41,000
Giants ticket office, Candlestick Park, San Francisco, 94124.

534
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:47,000
Now if you can't make it to opening day on a Thursday, maybe Sunday is the first chance you'll get to see

535
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:50,000
brand new Candlestick Park, and believe me it looks beautiful.

536
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:54,000
They've done a magnificent job in closing Candlestick.

537
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:58,000
If you didn't see it during the football season, the 49ers playing there,

538
00:42:58,000 --> 00:42:59,000
you'll be very much surprised.

539
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:05,000
In fact they've done a lot more work since the football season ended, and Candlestick Park looks great.

540
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:09,000
That's Sunday against the San Diego Pottery, the first double header of the year.

541
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,000
First chance to see the Giants in the double header.

542
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:15,000
Tickets for the season's first double header, available now by mail.

543
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:20,000
You can write to the Giants ticket office, Candlestick Park, San Francisco, 94124.

544
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:24,000

545
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:29,000
Opening day, Thursday, April 6th, the first double header is Sunday, April 9th.

546
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:33,000
The new pitcher for the Chicago Cubs is Milt Pappas, and I'll tell you about it here as well.

547
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:43,000
Pappas, better than right hander, with the Cubs last year, won 17 and lost 14.

548
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:50,000
His highest win total in his big league career, which started back in 1958, or 57 actually, with Baltimore.

549
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:56,000
Bobby Bonds, grounds one, sharply to third base, bobble by Sano, picks it up, throws, and gets in.

550
00:43:56,000 --> 00:44:00,000
Joel Malpatano, the Giants first base coach, does not think so.

551
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:05,000
A double play in the first inning, thrown out by Ron Sano.

552
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:12,000
Malpatano was sharply hit, skipped off Sano's guard, he chased it down, turned mid, a good throw to first base.

553
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,000
Just nipped Bonds.

554
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:19,000
Bobby, tried for out number one, as Pappas gets the first man he faces, and Kenny Henderson.

555
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:24,000
He's grounded sharply to Peppit on his first base in inning number one, a little bit of Giants batter.

556
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:29,000
Foul tips the first pitch off Rudolph, does strike one.

557
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:34,000
Pappas, last year, was an ERA of 3.52.

558
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:40,000
Been in 461 major league ballgames, 185 wins, 145 losses.

559
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:46,000
Lettup, it's popped up, short left field, drifting back, Kessinger's a shortstop, waving Williams off.

560
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:51,000
Kessinger makes the catch for out number two.

561
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:56,000
Ferguson Jenkins pitched two innings for the Cubs, gave up five runs, three of them earned.

562
00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:01,000
On four hits, he struck out one and he walked three.

563
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:13,000
Fran Healy, who walked his quarter run in inning number two, a Giants batter against Noel Pappas.

564
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:21,000
Pappas delivers slider outside ball one.

565
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:26,000
John Diaclisto throwing in a Giants bullpen in right field.

566
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,000
Bounding ball, one hop to Sano at third.

567
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:31,000
Sano goes across to Peppiton and the side is retired.

568
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:35,000
Pappas comes in to fix the first one, two, three inning of the ballgame.

569
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,000
Giants go very quietly.

570
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,000
No runs, no hits, no coming in, there's no runners left.

571
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:44,000
At the end of two and a half, the Giants five and the Cubs nothing.

572
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:53,000
Giants make one lineup change as Ed Goodson goes in at first base, replacing Willie McGooby.

573
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,000
The rest of the lineup remains the same.

574
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:58,000
Kingman at third, Spirits short, Bollini's at second.

575
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,000
Outfield from left to right, Henderson, Mays and Fonz.

576
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:07,000
Healy to Kessinger and Don Carruthers, the pitcher.

577
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:09,000
For the Cubs, the two, three, and four spots in the batting order.

578
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:10,000
Second baseman, Glenn Beckert.

579
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:15,000
Left fielder, Billy Williams, and first baseman, Joe Peppiton.

580
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,000
Slider is a strike.

581
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:21,000
Beckert, fly to Henderson and short left center in inning number one.

582
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:23,000
Right end of batter.

583
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,000
Chokes up on the bat.

584
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:26,000
Ground ball, right side.

585
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:31,000
Carruthers falls down, but when he's coming, he fields the ball, throws to first base for the out.

586
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:35,000
Carruthers starting to move out the mound in case he should be called in to cover first base.

587
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,000
Tripped and fell.

588
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:42,000
Giants gather around him.

589
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:48,000
Charlie Fox runs out to the mound.

590
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,000
Now trainer Leo Hughes comes out.

591
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:51,000
Carruthers is walking around.

592
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,000
It proves to be all right.

593
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:56,000
It's sure as manager Fox as he is, Charlie gets back to the deck out.

594
00:46:56,000 --> 00:47:01,000
Cuts off Leo Hughes at the pass.

595
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:04,000
Now coming to bat, number 26, Billy Williams.

596
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:11,000
Billy Williams who fly to Henderson and left in inning number one, Vieticub batter.

597
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:16,000
Left handed batter against right handed down to Carruthers.

598
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:25,000
Fastball is high and away, ball one.

599
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:27,000
The one-o pitch to Williams.

600
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,000
Popped up foul, it will be out of play.

601
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:39,000
Healy starts back, but this one goes back into just over the seats, not to the left of the plate.

602
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Carruthers on an account of one and one.

603
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:56,000
The one-one pitch is low ball two.

604
00:47:56,000 --> 00:48:03,000
Carruthers, the youngster John DiAcquisto and John Cumberland, the Giants scheduled pitchers today.

605
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,000
Two-one pitch on its way.

606
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:15,000
Bounded foul to the right.

607
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:25,000
Carruthers and Williams with an account of two and two.

608
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,000
Carruthers with a sign from Healy.

609
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:31,000
John kicks and throws, just misses low inside.

610
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,000
Williams had a notion, but laid off in time.

611
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,000
The account goes full of three and two.

612
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:36,000
One out, bases empty.

613
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:39,000
Bottom of the third, Giants lead five to nothing.

614
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:48,000
Three-two pitch, low ball four.

615
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,000
Carruthers gives up his second walk.

616
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:54,000
Cubs have a runner at first with one out and first baseman Joe Pepitone will move in.

617
00:48:54,000 --> 00:49:07,000
Pepitone, the left-handed batter.

618
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:08,000
Williams away from first.

619
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:10,000
Carruthers looks, there comes to the plate.

620
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:18,000
Misses just inside ball one.

621
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,000
Giant outfield deep and around to the right.

622
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:22,000
Infield double-played it.

623
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:23,000
Carruthers sets some fires.

624
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:25,000
Drive to deep right center field.

625
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:26,000
Bonds a long ways to go.

626
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:27,000
This one is off the wall.

627
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:30,000
Gets by Mays and Bonds bounding back towards the infield.

628
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:33,000
Williams comes on to score from first bases.

629
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:37,000
Pepitone has a stand-up double.

630
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:39,000
Pepitone gives that one a ride.

631
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:42,000
Solid line drive in a deep right center field.

632
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:45,000
Hits high up on the wall at about the point at foot mark.

633
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:46,000
Mays and Bonds converge.

634
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:49,000
It bounce fast and back towards the infield.

635
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:52,000
Pepitone could go into second base, but Williams was able to score.

636
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:55,000
Cubs get on the scoreboard.

637
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:58,000
It's now 5-1, Giant League.

638
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:05,000
Pepitone with the first RBI.

639
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:08,000
Here's Ron Sato, who has thrown out the Carruthers, ending number two.

640
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:12,000
Takes a clear first strike.

641
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:15,000
Sato doesn't like the call.

642
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:21,000
Again, the fans agreeing with the Cubs captain.

643
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:25,000
Pepitone, a lead at second.

644
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:26,000
Here's Jackson, comes to the plate.

645
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:30,000
A swing and a miss on an off-speed curve ball.

646
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:33,000
First time the Carruthers had thrown that pitch today.

647
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:36,000
Took something off the curve and had Sato way up in front.

648
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:46,000
Carruthers in front, 0-2.

649
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:48,000
Pepitone, a short lead.

650
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:49,000
Carruthers looking at him.

651
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:51,000
Now comes to the plate.

652
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:56,000
Misses, just a bit too low.

653
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:04,000
A ball and two strikes on Ron Sato.

654
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:09,000
On deck for the Cubs, right through to Jose Cardinal.

655
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:13,000
Swing and a miss by Sato on a good breaking pitch by Carruthers.

656
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:17,000
Sato down on strikes.

657
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:20,000
The Carruthers get their first strike out.

658
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:26,000
Now Jose Cardinal is single to center in ending number two with a bit of Cubs batter.

659
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:37,000
Cardinal, in the big leagues with, briefly with the Giants, California, Cleveland, St. Louis, Milwaukee.

660
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:41,000
Now, remember the Cubs.

661
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:46,000
Two-sixty lifetime major league average.

662
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:50,000
Cardinal, feet close together.

663
00:51:50,000 --> 00:52:01,000
Carruthers misses, low ball one.

664
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:04,000
Pepitone at second, two outs, a run in.

665
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,000
Giants lead five to one in the bottom of the third.

666
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:09,000
A lead up, misses.

667
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:25,000
And Carruthers drops behind on Cardinal, two balls and no strikes.

668
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:28,000
Carruthers checks Pepitone, who leads from second.

669
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:32,000
A slider is a strike in the outside corner.

670
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:42,000
Two-and-one count.

671
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:45,000
Again Carruthers sets up the bulk, two-one pitch on its way.

672
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:49,000
Cardinal checks and takes low, ball three.

673
00:52:49,000 --> 00:53:03,000
Carruthers dropping behind Cardinal, three balls, one strike.

674
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:06,000
Don, ready, three-one pitch.

675
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:08,000
Hit high in the air to right center field.

676
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:13,000
Mayes doesn't go back and on the run, no deep right center, still going, reaches out, makes the catch.

677
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:17,000
In the right center field corner, 415 feet away from home play.

678
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:21,000
Willie Mayes on the run to all in end.

679
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:25,000
Where the Cubs in the third, one run on one hit.

680
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:27,000
There are no Giants here, there was a runner left.

681
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:34,000
At the end of three-four, the Giants five and the Cubs one.

682
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:38,000
Before going to inning number four in Ron Simmons, we'll pause for station identification.

683
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:41,000
This is the Golden West Radio Network.

684
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:45,000
When you want to hear the sounds of the city, listen to Carter Blakemore Smith,

685
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:49,000
one to four right here on KSFO in San Francisco.

686
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:56,000
It's the sound of the city.

687
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:59,000
Chris Pyer swings at the first pitch and hits a two-hopper to second baseman,

688
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:02,000
Glenn Beckard, who throws him out at first base and pats his first pitch.

689
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:04,000
The first out of the fourth inning.

690
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:06,000
Pyer, retired.

691
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:10,000
And Jim Rayhart will be batting for Carruthers.

692
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:13,000
Don Carruthers, who pitched an impressive three innings.

693
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:18,000
Carruthers in at three innings, giving up four hits.

694
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:24,000
One run, walked one, struck out, walked two and struck out one.

695
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:30,000
Hart batting right-handed last year, plagued by arm problems after an arm operation.

696
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,000
Takes low for a ball, one and oh.

697
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:39,000
Jimmy could certainly help out if he could bounce back.

698
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:41,000
One-oh pitch, swung on and missed.

699
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,000
One and one.

700
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:45,000
Pappas came in on the third inning.

701
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:48,000
Jenkins giving up all five of the giant runs.

702
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:51,000
Jenkins, wild, which is unusual for him.

703
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:54,000
He had 11 complete games in which he didn't walk a man last year.

704
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:56,000
Pitch is low for a ball.

705
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:57,000
Two and one.

706
00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:02,000
And had the best record, control record in the league,

707
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:08,000
walking an average of just slightly over one man per game.

708
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:11,000
Four for a ball to Hart, and it's three and one.

709
00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:19,000
Jenkins obviously having his control difficulties because of the early spring training.

710
00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:22,000
Three, one, pitch, low, ball four, and Hart draws the base on balls.

711
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:27,000
The first baserunner off Pappas, said Jimmy, goes to first base, is Willie Mays, will be the batter.

712
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:30,000
Mays has been on twice.

713
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:35,000
He's safe on an air and scored a run in the first inning when Billy Williams dropped his fly ball at the base of the fence in left field,

714
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:39,000
and then he doubled in the left center field to drive in two runs.

715
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:45,000
Both those appearances against Jenkins, and now he faces Pappas here with Hart, a runner at first base.

716
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:47,000
One man down.

717
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:49,000
Mays swings and fouls it away.

718
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:50,000
Strike one.

719
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:59,000
Willie reaching for a breaking pitch that time.

720
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:01,000
Strike one, Kev.

721
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:06,000
Jenkins went two innings, gave up five runs on four hits.

722
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:09,000
He struck out one, he walked three.

723
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:14,000
Mays has the outfield swung around to the left as he swings and misses a high pass ball.

724
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:18,000
Strike two.

725
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:19,000
Nothing in two that counts to Mays.

726
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:24,000
Pappas is out in front of him.

727
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:26,000
Hart gets a short lead at first.

728
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:27,000
Pappas delivers to Mays.

729
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:31,000
He takes low, dug out by Rudolph as the ball hits the ground.

730
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:36,000
He was able to block it, prevent it from going to the screen, and keeping Jimmy Hart at first base.

731
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,000
Giants leading five to one.

732
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:42,000
Don Carruthers going the first three innings for the Giants.

733
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:44,000
We'll have a new pitcher for San Francisco.

734
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:48,000
It'll be John DiAcquisto.

735
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:49,000
Pappas pitch.

736
00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:54,000
Mays fouls it back.

737
00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:57,000
It stays at one ball, two strikes.

738
00:56:57,000 --> 00:57:02,000
DiAcquisto, a young fellow who can throw hard.

739
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:09,000
Last year, struck out 244 men in 233 innings.

740
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:14,000
Pitching for Decatur, he broke by the Blues, strikeout record there.

741
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:16,000
Pitch to Mays, outside.

742
00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:22,000
Rudolph had to spear that one to prevent it from being a wild pitch, and it's two and two.

743
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:26,000
152 members of the Giants boosters here today.

744
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:31,000
A record number of boosters coming to spring training.

745
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:34,000
Pappas steps off the rubber and bluffs Hart back into first base.

746
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:36,000
Two-two count to Mays, one out, one on.

747
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:38,000
Giants lead five to one.

748
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:42,000
Pitch to Willie, swung on, fly ball to center field.

749
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:50,000
Waiting for it is Rick Mundy, has it, and Mays is retired for the second out as Hart retreats to first base.

750
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:57,000
There's nothing like the excitement of Major League Baseball, and there's no other car quite like the 72 Monte Carlo by Chevrolet.

751
00:57:57,000 --> 00:58:00,000
The agility of a sport car, the ride and comfort of a luxury car.

752
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:05,000
Chevrolet wants your new Monte Carlo to be the best car you ever owned.

753
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,000
Tito Fuentes has doubled in his singles.

754
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:17,000
He's driven in a run, and he scored one up here batting left-handed against Pappas, facing Pappas for the first time, first time today.

755
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:24,000
Hart remains at first, Fuentes follows it off, strike one.

756
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:27,000
Don't forget, opening day, Thursday at Candlestick Park this year.

757
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:41,000
That is Thursday, April 6th, San Diego, and then that's Sunday on the 9th of April, a doubleheader against the Padres.

758
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:46,000
Tickets available for all the Giants home games.

759
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:50,000
Pappas pitched to 20. Line drive to Beckert off his glove into right field.

760
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:53,000
Hart will go to second base and hold as Cardinal comes up.

761
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:56,000
That was a line shot, and Beckert reached up.

762
00:58:56,000 --> 00:59:03,000
That ball just skipped off the tip of his glove out into right field.

763
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:15,000
And Dave Kingman will be the batter to see if they give that credit bet as a base hit for 20.

764
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:18,000
His stinging line drive off the mitt of Beckert.

765
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:21,000
That is the first hit issued by Pappas.

766
00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:24,000
And Kingman waits. Swings and misses, strike one.

767
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:28,000
Dave has walked and he's struck out. He's scored a run.

768
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:33,000
Kingman trying to learn defense at third base.

769
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:41,000
And Mr. Charlie Fox trying to put Kingman in the lineup as an infielder, bounding ball to the left, then it's strike two.

770
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:45,000
The Giants have a difficulty right now. It's infield depth.

771
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:59,000
They have a lot of people who can play third base, but they have very few who can play short stuff.

772
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:05,000
One-eighth at first. Hart is at second with two down and Kingman waiting with an O2 count.

773
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:12,000
The O2 pitch, low and away for a ball and it's one and two. Ed Goodson on deck.

774
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:16,000
Ed taking over for McCovey at first base.

775
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:21,000
Pappas in front of Kingman, a ball and two strikes. The outfield deep and around to the left.

776
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:24,000
Pappas delivers. Kingman takes low in the dirt for a ball too.

777
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:31,000
Rudolph is doing a good job of boxing those low pitches, giving them from going to the screen.

778
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:39,000
Two and two count. Kingman has the infield and outfield backed up against him.

779
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:43,000
Straightaway stance for the big guy, six feet, six inches tall.

780
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:49,000
Low and inside, slip pitch and it's a three and two count now on Kingman.

781
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:53,000
The runners will be going with two men down.

782
01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:59,000
Kingman slams a dramatic home run in the final game of the regular season last year.

783
01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:03,000
Three, two pitches, low, a ball, four blocked by Rudolph. Kingman goes to first.

784
01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:07,000
Hart moves over to third, 20s to second and Ed Goodson will come up to be the batter.

785
01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:12,000
Kingman's home run in San Diego.

786
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:18,000
On the final day of the season, the Giants clinch the pennants.

787
01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:23,000
Day in a second game with a grand slam home run last year.

788
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:29,000
Ed Goodson, left hand batter, here's the fellow that knows how to play bat.

789
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:34,000
He has good bat control, takes a strike at the knees on one.

790
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:37,000
He is also a fine defensive player at first base.

791
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:43,000
Giants worked with Goodson last year as a third baseman at Phoenix.

792
01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:49,000
All the way out of play and Goodson has a two strike count.

793
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:55,000
It was in 20 games of the Giants last year, 42 batting appearances, that eight hits.

794
01:01:55,000 --> 01:02:00,000
With Phoenix he batted 294.

795
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:05,000
Bases loaded with two down. Kingman at first, 20s at second, Hart at third.

796
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:09,000
The Giants lead five to one. We're in the fourth inning.

797
01:02:09,000 --> 01:02:13,000
Pitch to Goodson. A strike call. He is out on strike.

798
01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:16,000
There's Pappas give a good pitch over the outside corner.

799
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:19,000
Two runs, one hit, no errors, three runners left on.

800
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:27,000
We go to the bottom of the fourth, the score, the Giants five and the Cubs one.

801
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:30,000
Couple of changes for the Giants.

802
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:40,000
The equistos comes in to do the pitching and Jimmy Rosario goes in to play center field.

803
01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:49,000
Perrithers went three innings, gave up one run, four hits, struck out one and walked two.

804
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:53,000
A little bit on the equisto.

805
01:02:53,000 --> 01:03:02,000
John Francis D. Equisto, that's D apostrophe A-C-Q-U-I-S-T-O.

806
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:12,000
San Diego, 6'2", 205 pounds. He is 20 years old.

807
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:15,000
This is his third season.

808
01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:20,000
It was the Giants' first selection, June 1970 free agent draft.

809
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:24,000
Last year he struck out 244 men in 233 innings.

810
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:27,000
That generally means a pitcher throws hard and he does.

811
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:30,000
Kessinger, the batter, tries to punt the ball and fouls it off strike one.

812
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:34,000
D'Equisto, a right-hander, wears glasses.

813
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:40,000
He has appeared to have a little control problem in early spring training,

814
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:41,000
but that would be natural.

815
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:46,000
He walked 124 men in the 233 innings he pitched last year at Decatur.

816
01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:49,000
110 and lost 13.

817
01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:57,000
Kessinger batting left-handed against the right-hander, John D. Equisto.

818
01:03:57,000 --> 01:04:00,000
The left-hander plays up even with a bag at third.

819
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:02,000
The outfield rather shallow and around the left to strike one pitch.

820
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:06,000
Oh, look out, John. That was a fastball in at his feet and he was hit by that pitch.

821
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:09,000
Couldn't get out of the way.

822
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:12,000
Kessinger, hit by D'Equisto with that pitch.

823
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:15,000
He tried to jump out of the way.

824
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:17,000
He was anxious to get out of there.

825
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:20,000
He didn't want to get out. He's going to be hit by that pitch.

826
01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:23,000
Hit him in the foot. He's all right and he goes to first base.

827
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:25,000
Now, Ken Rudolph will be the batter.

828
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:28,000
He's going to be the parither's his first time up, right-hand batting catcher.

829
01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:31,000
Runner at first.

830
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:32,000
Nobody down.

831
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:35,000
The Giants lead five to one and we are in the bottom of the fourth inning.

832
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:38,000
The Giants picked up three runs in the first, two in the second.

833
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:41,000
Cubs got a run in the third.

834
01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:44,000
D'Equisto working from a stretch as Kessinger leads from first.

835
01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:49,000
And the lob throw to first base.

836
01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:53,000
Now, you can understand that this is quite a big moment for this young fellow.

837
01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:55,000
He's bound to be a little nervous. Pitch is up high for a ball.

838
01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:57,000
It's only spring training to everybody else.

839
01:04:57,000 --> 01:04:58,000
Time to enjoy themselves.

840
01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:03,000
But for D'Equisto, he's pitching in a major league uniform.

841
01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:10,000
He's wanting to show the boss what he can do.

842
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:11,000
Ground ball to right side.

843
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:13,000
Base hit on the hit and run as Kessinger goes to third.

844
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:16,000
Rudolph hitting behind the runner beautifully.

845
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:21,000
Drilled that one through the hole into right field and the runners at first and third.

846
01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:23,000
Rudolph really went with that pitch.

847
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:26,000
They sent Kessinger.

848
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:30,000
And now they're runners at first and third and Milt Pappas will be the batter.

849
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:37,000
And Pappas is a good hitter for a pitcher.

850
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:40,000
He will face D'Equisto with runners at first and third and nobody down.

851
01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:43,000
The Giants play a double play position.

852
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:48,000
Willing to give up the run if they can get a ground ball and make two outs on it.

853
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:54,000
A hit batsman and a hit and run single and the Cubs are in business with runners at first and third.

854
01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:57,000
D'Equisto working from the stretch.

855
01:05:57,000 --> 01:05:58,000
The runners lead away from first and third.

856
01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:01,000
The pitch, Pappas turns the puck, pushes it back toward the mound.

857
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:02,000
D'Equisto has it, will go to first.

858
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:07,000
Does in time, the runner Kessinger holds at third and Rudolph moves up to second base.

859
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:11,000
So Pappas with the sacrifice, moving the runner to second,

860
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:19,000
is thrown out by D'Equisto for number one and Rick Mundy will be the batter.

861
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:25,000
Whatever you need for your home, there's a good chance you can find it at Long's Drug Stores and at a lower price.

862
01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:30,000
Long's has 59 stores throughout California and Hawaii.

863
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:34,000
Second and third occupied now on that sacrifice, but Rick Mundy, the batter.

864
01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:37,000
Mundy has doubled to left field and flied to center.

865
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:41,000
Popped up with the bases loaded to end the second inning. Left hand batter.

866
01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:43,000
D'Equisto working from the windup.

867
01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:48,000
The pitch is a strike, a fastball good on the outside, Oremond.

868
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:51,000
Kessinger is a runner at third, Rudolph at second.

869
01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:56,000
Outfield shades Mundy slightly to the left.

870
01:06:56,000 --> 01:07:01,000
Rick, a star at Arizona State, very close to Scottsdale here.

871
01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:05,000
Pitch low, blocked by Healy and it's one and one.

872
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:11,000
It's difficult on a catcher when a pitcher throws as hard as D'Equisto does if he gets the ball in the dirt.

873
01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:17,000
It's a little tough for that catcher to block the ball, but Healy got down on that one in a hurry and kept it from going to the screen.

874
01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:21,000
Rudolph away from second. Kessinger moves away from third.

875
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:23,000
Mundy waits for the one-one pitch.

876
01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:27,000
A pop-up to the left side in short left field into center field.

877
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:30,000
Now it's fire goes out. Rosario comes in. Rosario makes the catch.

878
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:37,000
Kessinger bluffs and Rosario fires the ball by Healy, but it's backed up by D'Equisto, who was in the right place where he should be.

879
01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:41,000
And he picked up the ball and Kessinger had to hold at third base.

880
01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:47,000
So Rosario's throw went through Goodson, then Healy, but D'Equisto backing it up, got the ball.

881
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:51,000
And Kessinger had to remain at third.

882
01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:56,000
So Mundy pops up to Rosario in center field for the second out.

883
01:07:56,000 --> 01:08:02,000
And Glenn Beckert will be the batter. Beckert has flied out and has grounded out.

884
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:05,000
Second and third occupied with two men down.

885
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:10,000
Giants lead five to one. We're in the bottom of the fourth inning.

886
01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:14,000
Rookie John D'Equisto during the pitching for the Giants from the windup.

887
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:18,000
His pitch to Beckert, high for a ball, one and oh.

888
01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:26,000
He gets it up there in a hurry. The Giants have a couple of young hitters who can throw a heart.

889
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:32,000
D'Equisto is one of them, whether he will be ready this year to join the Major Leagues.

890
01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:36,000
And now D'Equisto steps off the rubber. Are they going to call a ball?

891
01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:40,000
He stepped up on the rubber, but I don't know if they're calling a ball.

892
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:44,000
He stepped up on the rubber. He said he did not go into his windup.

893
01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:51,000
Then he stepped off the rubber, but the first base umpire.

894
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:55,000
Paul Runge says that he had started into his windup.

895
01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:59,000
D'Equisto is claiming that he just stepped up on the rubber to get the sign,

896
01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:05,000
and he is allowed to step off the rubber if he hasn't gone into the motion.

897
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:08,000
The umpire claims that he had gone into the motion.

898
01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:12,000
So coming into scores, Kessinger on the block and Rudolph moves over to third.

899
01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:16,000
Kessinger made a long bluff down the third baseline,

900
01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:20,000
and D'Equisto moved, stepped back off the rubber,

901
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:25,000
but he had already made a motion going into his windup.

902
01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:30,000
So it is ruled a ball. The run comes into score.

903
01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:33,000
It's now five to two game.

904
01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:37,000
The Giants in front, and Rudolph has moved over to third.

905
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:41,000
Bechard waits with a count of one and oh.

906
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:44,000
Two down, a run in.

907
01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:50,000
D'Equisto working from the windup again, looks over at third, and Rudolph now delivers to the plate.

908
01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:57,000
A strike, slider good, it's one and one.

909
01:09:57,000 --> 01:10:03,000
Ball on the strike to count, and Bechard turns to talk to the home plate umpire,

910
01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:06,000
Art Williams, about that call.

911
01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:09,000
D'Equisto ready with the one-one pitch.

912
01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:21,000
A rounded foul to the left, and it's a ball and two strikes.

913
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:24,000
A ball and two strikes.

914
01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:31,000
They count to Glenn Bechard.

915
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:44,000
Here's the one-two pitch, low for a ball two, two and two.

916
01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:51,000
Two and two count to Glenn Bechard, batting with a run in and two minutes.

917
01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:53,000
D'Equisto's pitch, swung on and missed.

918
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:55,000
He foul-tipped it into Healy's mitt.

919
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:57,000
Bechard is out on strike.

920
01:10:57,000 --> 01:11:00,000
One run, one hit, no errors.

921
01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:01,000
The score is what they left on.

922
01:11:01,000 --> 01:11:06,000
At the end of four, the score, the Giants five and the Cubs two.

923
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:12,000
Inning number five, the Giants leading five to two, and Bobby Barnes will lead off.

924
01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:14,000
Barnes has not had the ball on the infield.

925
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:19,000
He hit into a double play in the first inning and then grounded to third in the third.

926
01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:23,000
Bill Rigan gets up to start loosening up in the Cubs bullpen.

927
01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:30,000
They probably have to use an extra pitcher today because Jenkins went only two innings.

928
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:33,000
Bobby Barnes, right-hand batter, no pappas, right-hand pitcher.

929
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:34,000
The outfield deep for Barnes.

930
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:38,000
The pitch to Bobby, look out, it's inside for a ball, one and oh.

931
01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:42,000
Kenny Henderson and then Fran Healy to follow.

932
01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:45,000
Don Carrilers went three innings.

933
01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:50,000
Don will be our postgame guest as soon as we clean up his language.

934
01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:58,000
Pitch to Bobby is swung on and missed, strike one.

935
01:11:58,000 --> 01:12:02,000
Count of a ball and a strike.

936
01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:06,000
Barnes, Henderson and Healy against pappas in the fifth inning.

937
01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:11,000
A change-up is good for a strike and it's one and two.

938
01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:17,000
Edith Daniels says, say hello to the girls at headquarters 6A.

939
01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:20,000
I assume that's safe to say.

940
01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:26,000
Pitch is low for a ball and the count is a ball and two strikes, two balls and two strikes to Bob.

941
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:29,000
Two and two count.

942
01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:33,000
Infield backed up now with two strikes on Bobby who crouches at the plate, waits for the 2-2 pitch

943
01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:35,000
and hits one deep into right-center field.

944
01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:39,000
That one is going to be in between them, bouncing off the fence at the 4-17 mark.

945
01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:41,000
Barnes is turning it on, he's around second.

946
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:46,000
He glides for third, trips almost, balls, keeps his balance and goes into third with a three-base hit.

947
01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:54,000
Barnes drilling one up the alley in right-center and as he grounded second base,

948
01:12:54,000 --> 01:13:00,000
he was just sort of gliding toward third and looking back over his shoulder, he tripped,

949
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:04,000
almost fell down, maintained his balance and went into third base.

950
01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:08,000
So he is open with a triple, a second hit off pappas.

951
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:12,000
And Kenny Henderson who has grounded out and popped up will be the batter.

952
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:27,000
Bill Thompson and George Cooper listening to pornographic tapes.

953
01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:32,000
Pitch to Henderson, swung on line drive, base hit center field, coming in to score is Bobby Bonds.

954
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:36,000
Henderson hits the first pitch for a solid single, the Giants have their sixth run

955
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:41,000
and it's a 6-2 ballgame, the Giants in front.

956
01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:47,000
Fran Healy will be the next hitter, a triple and a single against pappas here to lead off the fifth inning

957
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:53,000
and the Giants have increased their, did he say naughty words?

958
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:56,000
Part of our tape will be missing because we have to take out the naughty words.

959
01:13:56,000 --> 01:14:01,000
You're not allowed to listen to those.

960
01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:08,000
Healy has walked and he's grounded out, he's scored a run, takes outside for a ball on all.

961
01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:14,000
Fran came in against the Cubs last year in a bases loaded situation against Phil Rigg and he doubled off the center field.

962
01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:26,000
Pinch drive in, three runs, Giants eventually came from behind in that ballgame to win it.

963
01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:28,000
Henderson getting a pretty good sized lead at first.

964
01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:33,000
Pitch to Healy is hit high in the air in the short left center field, who wants it?

965
01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:38,000
Rick Mundy and Mundy makes the catch in left center for out number one.

966
01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:45,000
Healy pops out to the Cubs center fielder and Chris Spire comes to the plate.

967
01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:56,000
And now let's get ready for a big inning, just pop open a good cold hand, there's always room for another brother.

968
01:14:56,000 --> 01:15:01,000
Spire has walked and grounded a second.

969
01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:05,000
Batting left handed, takes a strike going one.

970
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:14,000
Our producer engineer Rich Smalley is doing his South Pacific imitation, his plantation hat.

971
01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:18,000
Strike one, count to Spire, throw to first base back in there.

972
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:22,000
This is Kenny Henderson, one out, a run in.

973
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:25,000
Spire switch batting, batting left handed, line drive to second base.

974
01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:29,000
Bechert has a flip throw to first in time to get Henderson a double fly.

975
01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:37,000
Good play by Glenn Bechert on that solid line drive off the back of Chris Spire, turned into a double fly.

976
01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:44,000
And here in the fifth inning for the Giants, one run, two hits, no errors, no one left on.

977
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:50,000
We go to the bottom of the fifth and the Giants lead it by a score of six to two.

978
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:54,000
Peter Rebson is one of America's fastest rising young race drivers.

979
01:15:54,000 --> 01:16:00,000
So Standard Oil sent a Chevron low lead to France and asked Rebson to run performance tests at the world famous Le Mans racetrack

980
01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:06,000
in a car that can use low lead to see what happens to performance when you use a reduced lead gasoline.

981
01:16:06,000 --> 01:16:11,000
For a performance test of gasoline, Le Mans has to be as tough as they come.

982
01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:18,000
I've done a number of laps now, pushing the car very hard, and Chevron low lead has really been delivered.

983
01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:22,000
It's giving me quick acceleration out of the hairpin turns.

984
01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:30,000
And on the three mile long Mosaune straight where you can really wind an engine up, Chevron's been fabulous.

985
01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:36,000
Chevron low lead regular enriched with premium gasoline components to continue to give quality performance.

986
01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:50,000
And for cars that can run on gasoline without lead, Chevron unleaded, both with F310, available only along the Chevron way.

987
01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:52,000
A couple more changes for the Giants.

988
01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:57,000
Now in the bottom of the fifth inning, Bernie Williams goes in to play left field.

989
01:16:57,000 --> 01:17:03,000
Jimmy Rosario is in center field, and Gary Matthews takes over in right field.

990
01:17:03,000 --> 01:17:09,000
Gary was with Amarillo last year.

991
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:16,000
He is 6'3, 190 pounder from Southern California, Sam Fernando.

992
01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:26,000
And last year he hit 279 with Amarillo, hit 279 for Fresno in 1970 at 322, and his first year at Decatur in 1969.

993
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:31,000
He is 21 years old, and everybody figures that he is a cinch to make it.

994
01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:34,000
Great speed, good power.

995
01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:39,000
Billy Williams leads off against John DiAcquisto on swings and misses the first pitch strike once.

996
01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:42,000
Williams, the cut left fielder up here, has flied out and walked and scored a run.

997
01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:46,000
The Giants lead 6-2. We're in the bottom of the fifth inning.

998
01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:49,000
DiAcquisto's next pitch, high for a ball, it's 1-1.

999
01:17:49,000 --> 01:17:54,000
Pete Reiser, the third base coach for the Cubs, the first base coach, is Ernie Banks.

1000
01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:59,000
John Cumberland starts loosening up in the bullpen.

1001
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:02,000
No, it's not Cumberland.

1002
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:05,000
He could skip pit lock down there.

1003
01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:08,000
Swing by Williams and a high drive into left center field.

1004
01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:10,000
It will be playable for Rosario. He has it.

1005
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:15,000
He has it. Pour out number one, so Williams flies to Rosario.

1006
01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:20,000
If you're in the left field, small line, please get behind the fence.

1007
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:23,000
Bout of number eight, Joe Pepitone, first base.

1008
01:18:23,000 --> 01:18:26,000
Skip pit lock is throwing the Giants bullpen.

1009
01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:32,000
Cumberland was scheduled to be the third pitcher today, but maybe pit lock will be the man who will take over.

1010
01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:38,000
One man down, Ron, or Joe Pepitone now, the better, to face DiAcquisto

1011
01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:41,000
and pops the first pitch into short left center field.

1012
01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:46,000
Rosario is there for this one. He makes the catch for the second out.

1013
01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:51,000
Pepitone and Williams flying to center field against DiAcquisto, and Ron Sando will be the batter now.

1014
01:18:51,000 --> 01:18:53,000
Here's something to remember.

1015
01:18:53,000 --> 01:19:03,000
Anytime you have a motoring need, there are more than 23,000 standard stations and Chevron dealers ready to help you along the Chevron way.

1016
01:19:03,000 --> 01:19:07,000
Two down, Sando has grounded out and struck out.

1017
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:15,000
DiAcquisto for the first time, delivers, fouled off to the right, strike one.

1018
01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:20,000
Giants scored three times in the first inning, twice in the second, once in the top half of this fifth inning.

1019
01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:23,000
The Cubs get a run in the third and a run in the fourth.

1020
01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:27,000
Carreira's pitched the first three, DiAcquisto now working his second inning.

1021
01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:29,000
Curveball, line drive, base hit into left center field.

1022
01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:36,000
DiAcquisto hung that pitch. Rosario over to field, fires into second face and holding with a single of Sando.

1023
01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:41,000
DiAcquisto hung that curveball right out of the play and Sando busted it into left center.

1024
01:19:41,000 --> 01:19:45,000
Today's game is being brought to you by standard stations and independent Chevron dealers.

1025
01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:49,000
Bank of America, all state insurance companies.

1026
01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:55,000
Jose Cardinal has singled and he's flying deep to center.

1027
01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:59,000
Sando at first.

1028
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:02,000
Pitch to Cardinal, high inside for a ball.

1029
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:06,000
Dave Kingman probably thinks his third base is a cinch to play.

1030
01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:08,000
He hasn't had a chance over there today so far.

1031
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:14,000
He's just stood around not doing nothing, waiting for his turn to pass.

1032
01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:17,000
One and O count to Cardinal, right hand batting right fielder.

1033
01:20:17,000 --> 01:20:25,000
Flop throw to first base by DiAcquisto.

1034
01:20:25,000 --> 01:20:30,000
DiAcquisto working from a stretch, two down, Sando at first, high fastball for a ball.

1035
01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:33,000
Got a two and O to Cardinal.

1036
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:36,000
DiAcquisto telegraphs his curveball a little bit.

1037
01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:40,000
They're going to have to work on him in that phase of his pitching.

1038
01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:44,000
It's a tendency for young pitchers to sort of wrap their wrist,

1039
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:48,000
curl their wrist when they're going to throw a curveball to get a little more spin on it.

1040
01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:51,000
Very easy for the opposing coaches and hitters to pick it up.

1041
01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:54,000
Swing and a miss at a fastball.

1042
01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:58,000
And when I use the term fastball, I use it seriously in this case.

1043
01:20:58,000 --> 01:21:02,000
He busted that one in there and Cardinal walked around outside the batter's box,

1044
01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:10,000
talking to himself, proudly congratulating himself on still being able to walk up to the plate.

1045
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:13,000
Two out, runner at first, two one count.

1046
01:21:13,000 --> 01:21:19,000
DiAcquisto's stretch, looks at first, the two one pitch, fastball filed away.

1047
01:21:19,000 --> 01:21:23,000
And Cardinal was going one way as the ball was going the other.

1048
01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:25,000
Jose really wasn't excited about facing that one.

1049
01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:27,000
It's two and two.

1050
01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:32,000
In spring training, these hitters, especially the veterans who have a job made,

1051
01:21:32,000 --> 01:21:42,000
are not too anxious to get up there and swing a bat against young, wild right-handers, or left-handers for that matter.

1052
01:21:42,000 --> 01:21:46,000
Sato leads away at first with two down.

1053
01:21:46,000 --> 01:21:52,000
Fastball is a bit low, and it's a full count of three and two.

1054
01:21:52,000 --> 01:21:55,000
Sato will be running.

1055
01:21:55,000 --> 01:22:01,000
A few changes for the Cubs next inning.

1056
01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:06,000
Manager Leo DeRosier going to get some lineup changes in there.

1057
01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:08,000
Three, two, pitch.

1058
01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:12,000
One on line drive foul, past third base.

1059
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:17,000
Hit hard, but pulled foul by a couple of feet.

1060
01:22:17,000 --> 01:22:24,000
Spring training is time when the managers want to get a lot of people in there to play.

1061
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:28,000
And all of a sudden you find yourself looking at rosters,

1062
01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:43,000
trying to figure out just exactly who the manager is sending in to play.

1063
01:22:43,000 --> 01:22:45,000
Count remains of three and two to Cardinal.

1064
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:46,000
The equestria stretches.

1065
01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:47,000
Sato leads.

1066
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:48,000
He'll be going on the three, two, pitch.

1067
01:22:48,000 --> 01:22:51,000
A throw over there, and Sato gets back in.

1068
01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:56,000
Giants have Kingman at third, Spire at short, 20s at second, Goodson at first,

1069
01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:58,000
Haley catching, DiCaprio doing the pitching.

1070
01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:03,000
The outfield is Williams in left, Rosario in center, and Matthews in right.

1071
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:07,000
Stretch for the three, two, pitch to Cardinal.

1072
01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:11,000
Swung on and missed, he struck in on.

1073
01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:14,000
No runs on a hit, no errors on a runner left arm.

1074
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:20,000
At the end of five, the score tells a giant six and the Cubs two.

1075
01:23:20,000 --> 01:23:24,000
Numerous changes, myriad changes for the Chicago Cubs,

1076
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:26,000
and to tell you about it, here's Bill Thomas.

1077
01:23:26,000 --> 01:23:30,000
Bill North goes in to play center field, Paul Popovich at second base,

1078
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:34,000
Jim Tyrone in left field, Jim Hickman at first base,

1079
01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:38,000
Carmen Fanzone at third base, Cleo James in right field,

1080
01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:40,000
Hector Torres the shortstop,

1081
01:23:40,000 --> 01:23:43,000
Ken Rudolph remains in the broad game to do the catching,

1082
01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:49,000
and the new club pitcher is right hander, Phil Bacon.

1083
01:23:49,000 --> 01:23:54,000
For the Giants, Gary Thomason will be a pinch batter.

1084
01:23:54,000 --> 01:24:00,000
Thomason, left-handed batter.

1085
01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:09,000
Thomason was Amarillo last year, about at 373 in 126 games.

1086
01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:23,000
Swings and misses on the first pitch, strike one.

1087
01:24:23,000 --> 01:24:26,000
Regan delivers a line drive, right field, it'll be a base hit.

1088
01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:29,000
Coming over towards the line field is Cleo James.

1089
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:33,000
Thomason trying for second base, and he'll be in at second with a slide.

1090
01:24:33,000 --> 01:24:36,000
Thomason, the young fellow, batting for the first time in a San Francisco Giants uniform,

1091
01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:39,000
why, he says, a double in the right field.

1092
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:44,000
Beats Cleo James, throw, with a slide into second base.

1093
01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:49,000
And Jim Rosario, center fielder, will be a batter.

1094
01:24:49,000 --> 01:24:51,000
Jimmy batting for the first time in his broad game, switch batter,

1095
01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:55,000
about at 224 for the Giants last year, in 93 games,

1096
01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:58,000
played 13 games at Phoenix in the middle of the season.

1097
01:24:58,000 --> 01:25:03,000
Thomason gets the double to open up against Regan.

1098
01:25:03,000 --> 01:25:08,000
Regan, better than right-hander,

1099
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:13,000
wants a starting pitcher with Detroit, center to minors, got a trial with the Dodgers.

1100
01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:17,000
This is high to Rosario for ball one.

1101
01:25:17,000 --> 01:25:26,000
Came out of the minors with the Dodgers, won 18 games as a reliever one season.

1102
01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:30,000
Rosario waits, Regan delivers, misses high ball two.

1103
01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:37,000
Gary Thomason at second base, nobody out.

1104
01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:43,000
Top of the sixth in the Giants lead 62.

1105
01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:48,000
Regan looks at second, comes to the plate, gets the breaking pitch over.

1106
01:25:48,000 --> 01:25:51,000
Two-and-one count.

1107
01:25:51,000 --> 01:26:01,000
Regan often accused of dockering up the baseball.

1108
01:26:01,000 --> 01:26:02,000
Thomason will lead at second.

1109
01:26:02,000 --> 01:26:05,000
The two-and-one pitch to Rosario, grounded, base hit, right field.

1110
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:07,000
Around third is Thomason.

1111
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:08,000
Here comes James Stewart.

1112
01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:09,000
Thomason falls down.

1113
01:26:09,000 --> 01:26:12,000
He will get back to third, and on to second goes Rosario.

1114
01:26:12,000 --> 01:26:17,000
Thomason coming around third base was waved home by Johnny McNamara, but tripped and fell.

1115
01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:20,000
The throw came all the way to the plate.

1116
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:22,000
It's not cut off by the Cubs.

1117
01:26:22,000 --> 01:26:26,000
Thomason was able to get back to third, and Rosario moves up to second.

1118
01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:27,000
Give Jimmy a base hit.

1119
01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:29,000
He takes second on the throw.

1120
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:34,000
Giants have runners at second and third with nobody out, and Tito for one-ease will be the batter.

1121
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:38,000
Tito, three for three, had a blue double in the first inning, single in the second,

1122
01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:40,000
so he'll begin in the fourth.

1123
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:44,000
He's driven in around his quarter run.

1124
01:26:44,000 --> 01:26:51,000
One-ease, which batter, batting left-handed.

1125
01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:57,000
Regan, the work in the stretch, as the Cubs pull the infield in.

1126
01:26:57,000 --> 01:27:04,000
Van Zon, Torres, Popovich, and Hickman all move in.

1127
01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:10,000
Regan from the stretch delivers a slider for a strike on the outside corner.

1128
01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:14,000
Thomason at third, Rosario at second, nobody out.

1129
01:27:14,000 --> 01:27:23,000
Top of inning number six, Giants six, Cubs two.

1130
01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:27,000
Regan sets it to the boat, comes to the plate, drive to center field.

1131
01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:32,000
Going back, making a catch to center field, a one-run will score.

1132
01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:36,000
Rosario heading for third to throw his cutoff, and Rosario is in at third.

1133
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:41,000
Bill North, the center fielder, had to move back on that drive hit by Tito Pouenis.

1134
01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:46,000
He set 20 deep enough for Thomason to come in and score easily to make the Giants lead now seven to two.

1135
01:27:46,000 --> 01:27:48,000
Rosario moved to third.

1136
01:27:48,000 --> 01:27:54,000
Pouenis has his second RBI of the day, and he's still perfect in the day at three for three.

1137
01:27:54,000 --> 01:28:04,000
Dave Kingman walked in quarter run in the first inning, struck out in the second, walked in the fourth.

1138
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:09,000
Again, Regan works in the stretch, and the Cubs keep the infield in as Regan misses outside, ball one.

1139
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:16,000
Right-hander against right-hander.

1140
01:28:16,000 --> 01:28:21,000
Regan ready, was down the line, drive to right side, base hit.

1141
01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:26,000
Ground ball passed the drawn-in infield, and looked like Kingman was trying to go that way, and he did.

1142
01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:30,000
Dave punched the ball through that drawn-in infield to the right side.

1143
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:36,000
Rosario scores.

1144
01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:44,000
Giants now lead at eight to two, Ned Goodson, science first baseman, what was that?

1145
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:46,000
Strikeout victim his first time.

1146
01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:51,000
Willie McKelvey started the ball game, singled and lined out.

1147
01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:54,000
Goodson left hander better, Ed a good smooth swing.

1148
01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:57,000
Drive to deep left center field.

1149
01:28:57,000 --> 01:29:02,000
He's trying on the run, the Cub outfield will not get this, as it goes all the way to the wall, the left center field corner.

1150
01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:04,000
Kingman turning it on, coming around third.

1151
01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:12,000
He will score standing up as Hector Throys the shortstop runs the ball back in.

1152
01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:15,000
Jim Tyrone the left fielder, center fielder Bill North had no chance.

1153
01:29:15,000 --> 01:29:21,000
That was a drive, high drive, but in the alley in left center, and all the way to the center.

1154
01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:35,000
Kingman scores the third run of the inning, Goodson gets a double and an RBI.

1155
01:29:35,000 --> 01:29:44,000
Right fielder Gary Matthews will be the Giants batter.

1156
01:29:44,000 --> 01:29:58,000
Gary and Nathaniel Matthews, Goodson away from second, pitches low ball one.

1157
01:29:58,000 --> 01:30:05,000
Matthews played at Amarillo last year, about at 279, had 15 home runs, 86 RBIs, right handed batter.

1158
01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:13,000
Ed Goodson away from second, Regan looks there, comes to the plate, ground ball, deep shortstop, Torres has it, his throw is in time to get Matthews.

1159
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:20,000
Gary gets down the line very well, Torres just gets him by a step at first base.

1160
01:30:20,000 --> 01:30:23,000
The next batter, number 20, Bernie Williams left fielder.

1161
01:30:23,000 --> 01:30:26,000
Left fielder Bernie Williams moves in for the Giants.

1162
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:38,000
Williams divided the year with Phoenix and San Francisco, 73 games at Phoenix, battered 308, 35 games with the big club, battered 178.

1163
01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:44,000
Goodson had to hold on at second base on Matthews ground ball out.

1164
01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:49,000
Williams another guy with good speed, and another right handed batter.

1165
01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:56,000
Regan to the plate, foul of the screen.

1166
01:30:56,000 --> 01:31:13,000
Foul of the screen, it's Regan up on the count to Williams on one.

1167
01:31:13,000 --> 01:31:27,000
Goodson at second, now with two outs, two runs in for the Giants, San Francisco in front, 82, two in the top of the sixth.

1168
01:31:27,000 --> 01:31:33,000
Regan's pitch high inside, Williams has to bail out of there.

1169
01:31:33,000 --> 01:31:43,000
A one-one count.

1170
01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:50,000
Regan ready, Goodson away from second, a one-one pitch, breaking ball for a strike.

1171
01:31:50,000 --> 01:32:02,000
Regan, the edge in the count, a ball and two strikes.

1172
01:32:02,000 --> 01:32:20,000
Regan looking at second, now comes to the plate, misses outside with a slider, a two-two count.

1173
01:32:20,000 --> 01:32:27,000
Two-two count, Joe Regan's pitch, looped on the left field line pretty deep coming over the left fielder on the run,

1174
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:34,000
making the catch Jim Tyrone, a good running catch by Tyrone on the left field line.

1175
01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:41,000
Williams retired and so are the Giants, San Francisco comes up with two more runs.

1176
01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:45,000
Three more runs.

1177
01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:49,000
So I stand corrected on the score, three runs on four hits.

1178
01:32:49,000 --> 01:32:58,000
No errors, one winner left on. At the end of five and a half, the Giants nine, make up skills.

1179
01:32:58,000 --> 01:33:03,000
I'd like to take a minute to talk to you women in our audience about one of your favorite subjects, sales.

1180
01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:07,000
Not just any kind of sales, but the kind that can really save you money.

1181
01:33:07,000 --> 01:33:12,000
Have you ever gone by a store and seen a sign that said, sales, 30 percent off?

1182
01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:16,000
Then you look at the things in the window and see the dress you expected to buy the following week.

1183
01:33:16,000 --> 01:33:20,000
Only now it's on sale and the sale will be over next week? What do you do?

1184
01:33:20,000 --> 01:33:25,000
Easy. You buy the dress this week instead of next.

1185
01:33:25,000 --> 01:33:29,000
Only one of you are waiting until next week to buy the dress because you're short of cash this week.

1186
01:33:29,000 --> 01:33:32,000
What then? Well, that's easy too.

1187
01:33:32,000 --> 01:33:35,000
That's the time to whip out your trusty Bank AmeriCard.

1188
01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:40,000
Because by using your Bank AmeriCard at a time like that, you can take advantage of the sale

1189
01:33:40,000 --> 01:33:44,000
and pay less for something you would have paid more for later on.

1190
01:33:44,000 --> 01:33:48,000
That's using your Bank AmeriCard and your head.

1191
01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:53,000
Bank AmeriCard, think of it as money, money that can save you money.

1192
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:05,000
Changes for the Giants. New batteries. Skip the black pitching. Dave Rader doing the catching.

1193
01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:15,000
Alan Gallagher goes in to play at third base. Chris Arnold is at second.

1194
01:34:15,000 --> 01:34:21,000
Fit like the left hander has not been scheduled to pitch today by Manager Charlie Fox.

1195
01:34:21,000 --> 01:34:27,000
Skip, something of a mystery to the Giants, says in 1970 Skip was 10-3 at Phoenix in mid-year,

1196
01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:31,000
came up 1-5, lost 5 at the big club, and last year could never get it together.

1197
01:34:31,000 --> 01:34:39,000
Phoenix had a disastrous season. Ground ball, base hit the left field by shortstop Hector Torres,

1198
01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:41,000
leading off the bottom of the sixth for the Cubs.

1199
01:34:41,000 --> 01:34:46,000
Torres grounds a solid single to left.

1200
01:34:46,000 --> 01:34:49,000
The battle with the catcher Ken Rudolph.

1201
01:34:49,000 --> 01:35:00,000
Fit like at Phoenix, lost 7, lost 11, had a turn around average of 6.40.

1202
01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:05,000
Right end of batting catcher, Ken Rudolph standing in.

1203
01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:14,000
Fit like looks at first, comes to the plate, and misses high with a fastball for ball one.

1204
01:35:14,000 --> 01:35:16,000
Giants 9, Cubs 2.

1205
01:35:16,000 --> 01:35:22,000
Giants with 3 in the first, 2 in the second, 1 in the fifth, and 3 in the sixth.

1206
01:35:22,000 --> 01:35:25,000
Cubs will single runs in the third and fourth.

1207
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:27,000
Fit like's 1-0 pitch.

1208
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:32,000
Field, through Gallagher in the left field, going to second, holding on as Torres.

1209
01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:34,000
Williams throws in towards third base.

1210
01:35:34,000 --> 01:35:36,000
A solid shot.

1211
01:35:36,000 --> 01:35:42,000
Gallagher made an attempt on the ball, a ball went right through him in the left field.

1212
01:35:42,000 --> 01:35:44,000
Protect the official scoring, and it'll probably go to the base hit.

1213
01:35:44,000 --> 01:35:48,000
It was hit like a shot.

1214
01:35:48,000 --> 01:35:56,000
The next batter, number 27, Bill Riggins.

1215
01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:59,000
It does go as a base hit for Rudolph.

1216
01:35:59,000 --> 01:36:03,000
This is third of the ball game.

1217
01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:10,000
And pitcher Phil Regan, well bat for himself.

1218
01:36:10,000 --> 01:36:17,000
For the first two batters that they spit like, they hit the ball solidly.

1219
01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:21,000
Both four base hits, left hander looks at second, delivers, Regan round the bunk, pops it up.

1220
01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:28,000
Radar lost it, now comes over and cannot get to it as it drops untouched in foul territory.

1221
01:36:28,000 --> 01:36:33,000
Regan has been at bat 320 times in the big leagues.

1222
01:36:33,000 --> 01:36:37,000
Not exactly an overpowering hitter, has an 0-9-0 average.

1223
01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:55,000
A sacrifice.

1224
01:36:55,000 --> 01:36:58,000
Cleo James, the right fielder on deck.

1225
01:36:58,000 --> 01:37:01,000
Pitlock ready, the runners lead from first and second.

1226
01:37:01,000 --> 01:37:03,000
Round the bunk is Regan, the bunk system to the right side, a good bunk.

1227
01:37:03,000 --> 01:37:08,000
Pitlock picks it up, throws to first, a good spin covering as both runners move up.

1228
01:37:08,000 --> 01:37:15,000
Regan sacrifices successfully, moving Torres to third, Rudolph to second.

1229
01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:21,000
Cleo James, the right fielder, will bat for his first time.

1230
01:37:21,000 --> 01:37:29,000
James, with a Cubs and Tacoma last year, batted 368 in 71 games at Tacoma,

1231
01:37:29,000 --> 01:37:35,000
287 in 54 games with the Cubs.

1232
01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:41,000
James, right hander battered.

1233
01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:43,000
On deck, the second baseman, Paul Popovich.

1234
01:37:43,000 --> 01:37:48,000
Torres at third, Rudolph at second, one out.

1235
01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:50,000
Bottom of the sixth and the Giants lead 9-2.

1236
01:37:50,000 --> 01:38:03,000
Pitlock fires a curve a bit too low, ball one.

1237
01:38:03,000 --> 01:38:09,000
One ball, no stag cat.

1238
01:38:09,000 --> 01:38:11,000
Pitlock back to the play.

1239
01:38:11,000 --> 01:38:12,000
Fastball popped up.

1240
01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:15,000
Foul, Raider might have a play coming back towards the screen,

1241
01:38:15,000 --> 01:38:29,000
all the way to the screen and it's back into the sixth.

1242
01:38:29,000 --> 01:38:32,000
Giants with Gallagher at third, Spire still at short.

1243
01:38:32,000 --> 01:38:34,000
Chris Arnold at second, Ed Goodson at first.

1244
01:38:34,000 --> 01:38:39,000
Hatfield, Bernie Williams in left, Jim Rosario in center.

1245
01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:41,000
Gary Matthews in right.

1246
01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:43,000
Pitlock the pitcher, Raider the catcher.

1247
01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:45,000
Pitlock the third pitcher for the Giants.

1248
01:38:45,000 --> 01:38:46,000
John Corretto started with three innings.

1249
01:38:46,000 --> 01:38:49,000
John DiAcosto went the next two.

1250
01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:52,000
Now Pitlock coming on here in the sixth and John Cumberland throws

1251
01:38:52,000 --> 01:38:57,000
into bullpen for San Francisco.

1252
01:38:57,000 --> 01:38:59,000
Pitlock kicks, delivers 1-1.

1253
01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:02,000
Big curve ball is way outside and high.

1254
01:39:02,000 --> 01:39:15,000
Two ball, one stag cat.

1255
01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:18,000
Pitlock checking later for a sign.

1256
01:39:18,000 --> 01:39:20,000
A 2-1 pitch on its way.

1257
01:39:20,000 --> 01:39:29,000
High and outside with a fastball, ball three.

1258
01:39:29,000 --> 01:39:44,000
Pitlock behind on the count, three balls and one strike.

1259
01:39:44,000 --> 01:39:46,000
Pitlock glances at third as Torres comes down the line.

1260
01:39:46,000 --> 01:39:56,000
A 3-1 pitch, way outside and high ball for James Wachs.

1261
01:39:56,000 --> 01:40:04,000
To load up the bases, second baseman Paul Popovich will bat for the first time in the game.

1262
01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:08,000
Popovich, switch batter, will bat right-handed against the left-hander.

1263
01:40:08,000 --> 01:40:09,000
Skip Pitlock.

1264
01:40:09,000 --> 01:40:12,000
Popovich, last here with the Cubs.

1265
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:14,000
That is two-spot in Dane.

1266
01:40:14,000 --> 01:40:23,000
Popovich plays all the infield spots and has been using the Cays in the outfield.

1267
01:40:23,000 --> 01:40:27,000
Cubs with the bases loaded, one out, trailing the Giants 9-2 in the sixth.

1268
01:40:27,000 --> 01:40:29,000
Ground ball sharply hit to Arnold.

1269
01:40:29,000 --> 01:40:32,000
Bobbles, picks it up, throws to first, gets the one-runner.

1270
01:40:32,000 --> 01:40:34,000
Popovich is a run and scores.

1271
01:40:34,000 --> 01:40:37,000
The ball had double play possibilities.

1272
01:40:37,000 --> 01:40:40,000
Handcuffed Arnold, bounced off his chest.

1273
01:40:40,000 --> 01:40:45,000
Pick it up and maybe the only play you had left to play on Popovich at first is a run and scores.

1274
01:40:45,000 --> 01:40:47,000
Popovich with the RBI.

1275
01:40:47,000 --> 01:40:50,000
Rudolph goes to third.

1276
01:40:50,000 --> 01:40:52,000
James up to second.

1277
01:40:52,000 --> 01:40:57,000
And right-fitter Jim, or left-fitter, Jim Tyrone will be the batter.

1278
01:40:57,000 --> 01:41:01,000
Tyrone with Quincy last year, that is 3-0-3.

1279
01:41:01,000 --> 01:41:05,000
Sixty-one games, right-handed batter, takes a curve, high ball one.

1280
01:41:05,000 --> 01:41:09,000
Understand Tyrone has good power.

1281
01:41:09,000 --> 01:41:19,000
It's going to go over well with the young audience.

1282
01:41:19,000 --> 01:41:24,000
Good luck, kicks, throws, fastball, swing on a mess, a one-one count.

1283
01:41:24,000 --> 01:41:32,000
Jim Tyrone, right-handed batter.

1284
01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:41,000
Tyrone, an All-American baseball player at Pan-American College in Texas.

1285
01:41:41,000 --> 01:41:43,000
Good luck, curve, deep to center field.

1286
01:41:43,000 --> 01:41:48,000
Rosario turns, goes back, still goes back, over his head and off the center field fence.

1287
01:41:48,000 --> 01:41:50,000
Two runs score.

1288
01:41:50,000 --> 01:41:52,000
Round second heading for third is Tyrone and he can run.

1289
01:41:52,000 --> 01:41:59,000
Here comes the throw, it hits him, bounces away out along the left field arm and he will stay at third.

1290
01:41:59,000 --> 01:42:02,000
Tyrone crashed one over the head of Jim Rosario.

1291
01:42:02,000 --> 01:42:06,000
It took one bounce off the center field fence at the 430-foot mark.

1292
01:42:06,000 --> 01:42:09,000
James and Rudolph score.

1293
01:42:09,000 --> 01:42:13,000
Tyrone winds up with a triple and two RBI.

1294
01:42:13,000 --> 01:42:16,000
Gets the ball a long ways.

1295
01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:20,000
Great speed, he showed on the bases.

1296
01:42:20,000 --> 01:42:25,000
Jim Hickman, veteran campaigner for the Cubs, now playing at first base in this ballgame.

1297
01:42:25,000 --> 01:42:27,000
Replacing Joe Pepiton, right-handed batter.

1298
01:42:27,000 --> 01:42:29,000
Good luck to the plate.

1299
01:42:29,000 --> 01:42:32,000
Fastball, low ball one.

1300
01:42:32,000 --> 01:42:35,000
Last year Hickman batted 256, 19 home runs, 60 RBI.

1301
01:42:35,000 --> 01:42:44,000
The year before he had a great year, 32 home runs, 115 RBI, 315 average.

1302
01:42:44,000 --> 01:42:46,000
Tyrone down the line at third.

1303
01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:48,000
Fastball misses outside.

1304
01:42:48,000 --> 01:42:51,000
Fidlock drops behind two balls, no strikes.

1305
01:42:51,000 --> 01:42:54,000
Flores and Rudolph single, Regan sacrificed.

1306
01:42:54,000 --> 01:42:55,000
James walked.

1307
01:42:55,000 --> 01:43:00,000
Popovich got one run across on an infield out and Tyrone has tripled to drive in two.

1308
01:43:00,000 --> 01:43:05,000
The Cubs with three across, the Giants lead now nine to five.

1309
01:43:05,000 --> 01:43:13,000
Fidlock's pitch, called strike a fastball just in the strike zone up around the letters.

1310
01:43:13,000 --> 01:43:20,000
Skipping on account of two and one.

1311
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:22,000
Two on pitch to the right-handed batter.

1312
01:43:22,000 --> 01:43:24,000
Lettup popped up, right side of the infield.

1313
01:43:24,000 --> 01:43:29,000
Arnold calling, drifting over behind first base on the outfield grass, makes the catch,

1314
01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:30,000
Regan at his side.

1315
01:43:30,000 --> 01:43:32,000
And the Sun gave Chris a bit of trouble.

1316
01:43:32,000 --> 01:43:37,000
Four Chicago on his six, three runs on three hits.

1317
01:43:37,000 --> 01:43:39,000
No Giants errors, one runner left on.

1318
01:43:39,000 --> 01:43:48,000
The Giants nine and the Cubs five.

1319
01:43:48,000 --> 01:43:52,000
If you're driving anywhere around the Bay Area today, in a car you're driving as a compact,

1320
01:43:52,000 --> 01:43:57,000
Allstate may be able to give you a 15 percent discount on auto liability insurance.

1321
01:43:57,000 --> 01:44:00,000
Hundreds of makes and models, yours qualify.

1322
01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:06,000
Allstate is one of the few insurance companies that gives qualified compact car owners a 15 percent discount.

1323
01:44:06,000 --> 01:44:09,000
Allstate has a lot of other ways you may save on auto insurance, too.

1324
01:44:09,000 --> 01:44:11,000
They're a good driver rate.

1325
01:44:11,000 --> 01:44:12,000
They're a two-car discount.

1326
01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:15,000
Allstate even gives young married couples a discount.

1327
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:21,000
If your auto insurance expires soon, talk to an Allstate agent and learn how to maybe save some money.

1328
01:44:21,000 --> 01:44:50,000
You're in good hands with Allstate, and thousands of drivers can testify to that.

1329
01:44:50,000 --> 01:44:54,000
Number seven, as the Cubs come up with three and a six to close,

1330
01:44:54,000 --> 01:44:57,000
or cut the Giants lead, and now it's nine to five, margin.

1331
01:44:57,000 --> 01:45:00,000
And for any number seven, here again is why.

1332
01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:03,000
Don't forget opening day at Candlestick Park.

1333
01:45:03,000 --> 01:45:08,000
Thursday, April 6th, San Diego will be the ball club opening against the Giants.

1334
01:45:08,000 --> 01:45:14,000
And then the first doubleheader of the season will be that Sunday, April 9th, also against San Diego.

1335
01:45:14,000 --> 01:45:19,000
For tickets to opening day or the doubleheader or any other of the Giants home game,

1336
01:45:19,000 --> 01:45:24,000
tickets are available by mail, $4.50 for box seats, $3.50 for reserved.

1337
01:45:24,000 --> 01:45:30,000
You can write the Giants ticket off at Candlestick Park, San Francisco 9-4-1-2-4.

1338
01:45:30,000 --> 01:45:33,000
That's San Francisco 9-4-1-2-4.

1339
01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:36,000
I know you'll want to be out and see Candlestick Park.

1340
01:45:36,000 --> 01:45:40,000
It has blossomed into a beauty, a new construction out there.

1341
01:45:40,000 --> 01:45:48,000
And you'll want to come out and watch the Giants in action, a Western Division champion.

1342
01:45:48,000 --> 01:45:53,000
Dave Rader will be the leadoff batter.

1343
01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:58,000
Takes outside for a ball.

1344
01:45:58,000 --> 01:45:59,000
Regan.

1345
01:45:59,000 --> 01:46:03,000
Now Art Williams is going to take a look at the baseball.

1346
01:46:03,000 --> 01:46:09,000
Home plate umpire is going to inspect the baseball and toss it back out to Regan.

1347
01:46:09,000 --> 01:46:17,000
The Giants leading 9-5, out hitting the Cubs 11-9.

1348
01:46:17,000 --> 01:46:21,000
Has Rader, a left-hand batter.

1349
01:46:21,000 --> 01:46:23,000
Faces the right-hander, Phil Regan.

1350
01:46:23,000 --> 01:46:28,000
Takes a strike.

1351
01:46:28,000 --> 01:46:30,000
One-on-one count.

1352
01:46:30,000 --> 01:46:36,000
David Martin Rader, he is 23 years old.

1353
01:46:36,000 --> 01:46:37,000
Lives in Bakersfield.

1354
01:46:37,000 --> 01:46:39,000
Takes a strike.

1355
01:46:39,000 --> 01:46:41,000
For a ball and two strikes.

1356
01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:44,000
Started his baseball in 1967 at Salt Lake.

1357
01:46:44,000 --> 01:46:47,000
Resnaud in 67 and 68.

1358
01:46:47,000 --> 01:46:51,000
Amorello 69-70 and Phoenix 71.

1359
01:46:51,000 --> 01:46:54,000
Last year he appeared in three games with the Giants.

1360
01:46:54,000 --> 01:47:00,000
Parents left foul ball back out of play and it's one and two.

1361
01:47:00,000 --> 01:47:03,000
Rader then Spire.

1362
01:47:03,000 --> 01:47:07,000
And the pitching's done.

1363
01:47:07,000 --> 01:47:12,000
Hotfield straight away against his left-hand batter.

1364
01:47:12,000 --> 01:47:14,000
He hit 314 for Phoenix last year.

1365
01:47:14,000 --> 01:47:22,000
That's his biggest year with the bat outside of his first year with Salt Lake City when he hit 321.

1366
01:47:22,000 --> 01:47:25,000
Swings and tops it up behind the plate.

1367
01:47:25,000 --> 01:47:29,000
Rudolph waiting for this one and makes the catch for out number one.

1368
01:47:29,000 --> 01:47:35,000
So Rader fouls out to the opposing catcher and we'll pause for state identification.

1369
01:47:35,000 --> 01:47:38,000
This is the Burt West radio network.

1370
01:47:38,000 --> 01:47:46,000
When you want to hear the sounds of the city, listen to the Jim Lang Show, 6 to 10, weekdays right here on KSFO in San Francisco.

1371
01:47:46,000 --> 01:47:55,000
The sound of the city.

1372
01:47:55,000 --> 01:47:57,000
Chris Spire hits a drive to left field.

1373
01:47:57,000 --> 01:47:59,000
Back deep goes Jim Tyrone.

1374
01:47:59,000 --> 01:48:02,000
The left fielder turns and makes the catch for the second out.

1375
01:48:02,000 --> 01:48:03,000
Spire batting left-handed.

1376
01:48:03,000 --> 01:48:06,000
Hits it all along the way to left field.

1377
01:48:06,000 --> 01:48:12,000
Quite sure this year at Candlestick the left field has not been particularly home run haven for hitters.

1378
01:48:12,000 --> 01:48:20,000
But I think this year at Candlestick with the stadium enclosed that the ball is going to be jumping out of there a great deal more.

1379
01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:25,000
Steve Sanoveros is up here to bat for the pitcher Skip Pitlock, a left-hand batter.

1380
01:48:25,000 --> 01:48:26,000
He takes up side for a ball.

1381
01:48:26,000 --> 01:48:28,000
He was with Fresno last year at 321.

1382
01:48:28,000 --> 01:48:31,000
Had 18 home runs and 92 RBI.

1383
01:48:31,000 --> 01:48:34,000
He was being changed to an outfielder from third base.

1384
01:48:34,000 --> 01:48:36,000
He played third base with Fresno last year.

1385
01:48:36,000 --> 01:48:39,000
Swings and fouls it to the screen and it's a ball and a strike.

1386
01:48:39,000 --> 01:48:41,000
Two down, bases empty.

1387
01:48:41,000 --> 01:48:44,000
Regan was tagged for three runs in the sixth inning.

1388
01:48:44,000 --> 01:48:50,000
He has retired the first two minutes faced in this seventh.

1389
01:48:50,000 --> 01:48:54,000
Osfield gives Onoveros the right center field area.

1390
01:48:54,000 --> 01:48:57,000
North the center fielder playing well over in left center.

1391
01:48:57,000 --> 01:49:00,000
Cleo James guarding the right field line.

1392
01:49:00,000 --> 01:49:02,000
In field backed up.

1393
01:49:02,000 --> 01:49:04,000
1-1 count to Onoveros.

1394
01:49:04,000 --> 01:49:08,000
Left hand batter checks his swing, rolls a foul down the third baseline.

1395
01:49:08,000 --> 01:49:13,000
1 and 2.

1396
01:49:13,000 --> 01:49:20,000
Next broadcast will be Saturday from Tucson, Arizona.

1397
01:49:20,000 --> 01:49:24,000
Hopefully it will come from Tucson.

1398
01:49:24,000 --> 01:49:26,000
1-2 pitch.

1399
01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:29,000
Foul away to the left and it stays at 1 and 2.

1400
01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:36,000
It's an upset if you go into Tucson ballpark and you get broadcast lines.

1401
01:49:36,000 --> 01:49:40,000
Last year we had to tie two cans together.

1402
01:49:40,000 --> 01:49:43,000
Tin cans with a piece of string.

1403
01:49:43,000 --> 01:49:44,000
Swing and a miss.

1404
01:49:44,000 --> 01:49:47,000
Onoveros is out on the strike.

1405
01:49:47,000 --> 01:49:51,000
No runs, no hits, no errors, no one left on.

1406
01:49:51,000 --> 01:49:56,000
And as we go to the bottom of the seventh inning,

1407
01:49:56,000 --> 01:50:02,000
the score, the San Francisco Giants 9, the Chicago Cubs 5.

1408
01:50:02,000 --> 01:50:05,000
Good working out.

1409
01:50:05,000 --> 01:50:07,000
Is this an opening inning?

1410
01:50:07,000 --> 01:50:08,000
All right, it's an opening inning.

1411
01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:11,000
Let me tell you about some of the special events coming up.

1412
01:50:11,000 --> 01:50:14,000
Opening day of course is April 6th against San Diego.

1413
01:50:14,000 --> 01:50:15,000
We've mentioned that.

1414
01:50:15,000 --> 01:50:17,000
The first double header is Sunday, April 9th.

1415
01:50:17,000 --> 01:50:21,000
New kids bat day is Sunday, April 23rd.

1416
01:50:21,000 --> 01:50:23,000
I guess there aren't many kids listening right now.

1417
01:50:23,000 --> 01:50:26,000
They should be in school if you're not in school.

1418
01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:28,000
And I'm going to let you come to bat day.

1419
01:50:28,000 --> 01:50:30,000
Bat day, Sunday, April 23rd.

1420
01:50:30,000 --> 01:50:33,000
That's against Houston.

1421
01:50:33,000 --> 01:50:34,000
There are tickets available for those games.

1422
01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:39,000
Now last year, if you'll recall on bat day, they had a turn away crowd.

1423
01:50:39,000 --> 01:50:45,000
So it would be wise to get your tickets in advance for that April 23rd date.

1424
01:50:45,000 --> 01:50:48,000
You can order by mail just right to the Giants ticket office,

1425
01:50:48,000 --> 01:50:51,000
Candlestick Park, San Francisco 9, 4124.

1426
01:50:51,000 --> 01:50:54,000
Box seats are 4 1 half, reserved seats 3 1 half.

1427
01:50:54,000 --> 01:50:58,000
When bat day all, kids 14 and under, receive a free autographed baseball bat

1428
01:50:58,000 --> 01:51:01,000
when they enter the ballpark.

1429
01:51:01,000 --> 01:51:04,000
So remember the date, Sunday, April 23rd.

1430
01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:14,000
Get your tickets ahead of time so you'll be assured of a seat.

1431
01:51:14,000 --> 01:51:17,000
John Cumberland comes in to do the pitching as Pitlock went one inning.

1432
01:51:17,000 --> 01:51:19,000
He could have been out of it without being scored upon.

1433
01:51:19,000 --> 01:51:23,000
A potential double play ball was missed and a hard shot went through Gallagher,

1434
01:51:23,000 --> 01:51:29,000
because that's not an indictment of Gallagher because it was hit like a bullet.

1435
01:51:29,000 --> 01:51:32,000
Carmen Fanzona is the first batter, swings it, hits a line drive off the glove.

1436
01:51:32,000 --> 01:51:35,000
It will fill up the shortstop and Fanzona will be saved at first.

1437
01:51:35,000 --> 01:51:37,000
Phillips took his eye off that ball.

1438
01:51:37,000 --> 01:51:39,000
It was a line drive, hit through the hole.

1439
01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:43,000
He got over there, added glove on the ball, but it popped out of the glove.

1440
01:51:43,000 --> 01:51:45,000
Fanzona is safe on that first base.

1441
01:51:45,000 --> 01:51:50,000
Then air charge to Phillips, the shortstop.

1442
01:51:50,000 --> 01:51:57,000
Michael Dwyer Phillips, who is 21 years old, is from Beaumont, Texas,

1443
01:51:57,000 --> 01:51:59,000
or born in Beaumont, Texas.

1444
01:51:59,000 --> 01:52:01,000
He lives in Irving, Texas.

1445
01:52:01,000 --> 01:52:05,000
Irving, with Amarillo last year at 233.

1446
01:52:05,000 --> 01:52:10,000
Bill North, center fielder, up here right-hand batter now with a runner at first, nobody else.

1447
01:52:10,000 --> 01:52:15,000
The Giants lead 9-5. We're in the bottom of the seventh inning.

1448
01:52:15,000 --> 01:52:20,000
John Cumberland, left-hander doing the pitching for the Giants.

1449
01:52:20,000 --> 01:52:23,000
Cumberland, one of the reasons the Giants got up to such a fabulous early start last year.

1450
01:52:23,000 --> 01:52:26,000
He fits very well.

1451
01:52:26,000 --> 01:52:39,000
Delivers high for a ball two, and North turns the look south at the third base coach.

1452
01:52:39,000 --> 01:52:43,000
Fanzona first. The pitch is outside.

1453
01:52:43,000 --> 01:52:52,000
Ball three, Cumberland behind, 3-0.

1454
01:52:52,000 --> 01:52:57,000
Giants 9, the Cubs 5.

1455
01:52:57,000 --> 01:53:04,000
Cumberland 3-0 offering on the way, taken for a strike and a 3-1.

1456
01:53:04,000 --> 01:53:11,000
One count. Upfield, around to the left, infield, backed up.

1457
01:53:11,000 --> 01:53:17,000
Hoping for a ground ball to get two outs with one swing of the bat. 3-1 pitch.

1458
01:53:17,000 --> 01:53:20,000
Bounded to shortstop, could be two. Phillips backed up, throws a second for one.

1459
01:53:20,000 --> 01:53:23,000
Arnold threw the first, is not in time.

1460
01:53:23,000 --> 01:53:29,000
Phillips had to back up on that ball, and that was just enough to erase the double play as North beats it out.

1461
01:53:29,000 --> 01:53:34,000
The Giants, three forces, Fanzona second base for a top of the one.

1462
01:53:34,000 --> 01:53:37,000
Hector Torres, who had a single in his one trip, will be the batter.

1463
01:53:37,000 --> 01:53:50,000
Today's game being brought to you by Chevrolet's 1972 cars, Ham's Beer and Long's Drug Stores, and Rich Smalley's Pipe Tobacco.

1464
01:53:50,000 --> 01:53:58,000
Hector Torres, right-hand batting shortstop, takes a curve in the dirt, bounds away, Raider scrambles after it, and North

1465
01:53:58,000 --> 01:54:08,000
remains at first base.

1466
01:54:08,000 --> 01:54:16,000
Rich has ground up old Chronicles and put them in his pipe, and that's what he's smoking today.

1467
01:54:16,000 --> 01:54:19,000
You can smell Glendeckey Clare over here.

1468
01:54:19,000 --> 01:54:32,000
Hector Torres, wakes, swings, and fouls it away.

1469
01:54:32,000 --> 01:54:38,000
Out of a ball and a strike to Torres, it was one down and one on.

1470
01:54:38,000 --> 01:54:41,000
That hander starts throwing on the bullpen for the Chicagos.

1471
01:54:41,000 --> 01:54:51,000
Cumberland, the fourth Giant pitcher, Carothers, De Acresto, Pitlock, and now Cumberland.

1472
01:54:51,000 --> 01:54:53,000
Torres chokes up on the bat about three or four inches.

1473
01:54:53,000 --> 01:54:56,000
North leads from first to drive by Gallagher into short left field.

1474
01:54:56,000 --> 01:55:02,000
Phillips chasing it down, North rounds second and holds on as Bernie Williams comes into field of all.

1475
01:55:02,000 --> 01:55:05,000
Gallagher is probably wondering why me.

1476
01:55:05,000 --> 01:55:09,000
Kingman stood out there for five innings and nothing was hit in that direction.

1477
01:55:09,000 --> 01:55:20,000
Gallagher has been there two innings and he's had two shots and had to be wearing a bulletproof vest.

1478
01:55:20,000 --> 01:55:26,000
Ken Rudolph, now that was Torres' second hit.

1479
01:55:26,000 --> 01:55:32,000
It moved North to second base and with one down the Cubs have a threat at the bottom of the seventh inning.

1480
01:55:32,000 --> 01:55:36,000
Giants leading nine to five.

1481
01:55:36,000 --> 01:55:41,000
There goes the runner going North to throw to third and he is safe at third base.

1482
01:55:41,000 --> 01:55:49,000
Rader made a perfect throw but North had a big jump on Cumberland and as North moved into third,

1483
01:55:49,000 --> 01:55:54,000
Hector Torres stole second with a double steal.

1484
01:55:54,000 --> 01:56:04,000
And the Cubs have runners at second and third with one out.

1485
01:56:04,000 --> 01:56:08,000
Rudolph who has three hits and three trips, a right hand batter against Cumberland.

1486
01:56:08,000 --> 01:56:12,000
The Giants still play the infield back and the outfield deep.

1487
01:56:12,000 --> 01:56:15,000
Cumberland lines for the 1-0 pitch.

1488
01:56:15,000 --> 01:56:25,000
Ball two, 2-0.

1489
01:56:25,000 --> 01:56:38,000
North at third, Torres at second, one down, a 2-0 count to the right hand batting catcher, Ken Rudolph.

1490
01:56:38,000 --> 01:56:41,000
Wind up by Cumberland with a 2-0 pitch.

1491
01:56:41,000 --> 01:56:42,000
Low ball three.

1492
01:56:42,000 --> 01:56:48,000
He's in danger of loading him up.

1493
01:56:48,000 --> 01:56:58,000
3-0 count.

1494
01:56:58,000 --> 01:57:00,000
Cumberland 3-0 pitch to Rudolph.

1495
01:57:00,000 --> 01:57:03,000
Takes five, all four, and they are loaded up.

1496
01:57:03,000 --> 01:57:07,000
Cumberland walks his first man.

1497
01:57:07,000 --> 01:57:17,000
The base is filled and we'll have a pitch back and now Breeden will come up to bat for the pitchers.

1498
01:57:17,000 --> 01:57:23,000
Breeden batting in this seventh inning will bat for Regan.

1499
01:57:23,000 --> 01:57:26,000
Base is loaded, one out.

1500
01:57:26,000 --> 01:57:29,000
North at third, Torres at second.

1501
01:57:29,000 --> 01:57:33,000
Rudolph at first.

1502
01:57:33,000 --> 01:57:39,000
And a big right hand batter, Hal Breeden, and I mean he's a figment.

1503
01:57:39,000 --> 01:57:42,000
Eleven feet, six inches tall.

1504
01:57:42,000 --> 01:57:44,000
Takes low for a ball.

1505
01:57:44,000 --> 01:57:52,000
Six-two, 195 pounds, he looks bigger than that.

1506
01:57:52,000 --> 01:57:53,000
Ball one.

1507
01:57:53,000 --> 01:58:03,000
Bases are filled with Chicago and Breeden to see what he can do about getting them home.

1508
01:58:03,000 --> 01:58:06,000
1-0 count to him, Cumberland in difficulty, the 1-0 pitch.

1509
01:58:06,000 --> 01:58:07,000
Curve ball dribbles to first base.

1510
01:58:07,000 --> 01:58:09,000
That's going to be a tricky chance.

1511
01:58:09,000 --> 01:58:14,000
Cumberland didn't cover first and faith that first base is Breeden.

1512
01:58:14,000 --> 01:58:16,000
That ball dribbled off the end of the bat.

1513
01:58:16,000 --> 01:58:18,000
Goodson fielded it.

1514
01:58:18,000 --> 01:58:19,000
Had a long run to first.

1515
01:58:19,000 --> 01:58:23,000
For some reason, Cumberland did not go over to cover first base.

1516
01:58:23,000 --> 01:58:24,000
And it costs him.

1517
01:58:24,000 --> 01:58:25,000
A run comes in to score.

1518
01:58:25,000 --> 01:58:31,000
It will be a base hit for Breeden on a little dribbler off the end of the bat.

1519
01:58:31,000 --> 01:58:34,000
The bases remain loaded.

1520
01:58:34,000 --> 01:58:36,000
In clear, the genes will be the batter.

1521
01:58:36,000 --> 01:58:38,000
So it's a nine to six ball game.

1522
01:58:38,000 --> 01:58:40,000
The Bows north scores.

1523
01:58:40,000 --> 01:58:41,000
Torres went to third.

1524
01:58:41,000 --> 01:58:42,000
Rudolph to second.

1525
01:58:42,000 --> 01:58:44,000
And Breeden is saved at first.

1526
01:58:44,000 --> 01:58:47,000
On the bottom of the seventh, the Giants lead, cut to nine to six.

1527
01:58:47,000 --> 01:58:48,000
The bases are loaded, one out.

1528
01:58:48,000 --> 01:58:54,000
James has balked and scored a run in his only appearance.

1529
01:58:54,000 --> 01:58:56,000
Cumberland winds and his pitch.

1530
01:58:56,000 --> 01:58:58,000
Curve ball, pop foul.

1531
01:58:58,000 --> 01:59:01,000
Out of play.

1532
01:59:01,000 --> 01:59:05,000
Cumberland throws himself toward third base side when he pitches.

1533
01:59:05,000 --> 01:59:09,000
Makes it difficult for him to get over to first base or to cover on the right side.

1534
01:59:09,000 --> 01:59:13,000
He just plain didn't move over there that time and it cost him an out.

1535
01:59:13,000 --> 01:59:20,000
Those are things that can take a baseball game away from you.

1536
01:59:20,000 --> 01:59:24,000
Cumberland winds up the pitch high for a ball.

1537
01:59:24,000 --> 01:59:28,000
One and one.

1538
01:59:28,000 --> 01:59:32,000
If the base is loaded and you get somebody out, you want to get them out.

1539
01:59:32,000 --> 01:59:38,000
That time Cumberland let Breeden get off the hooks.

1540
01:59:38,000 --> 01:59:39,000
A one-one pitch.

1541
01:59:39,000 --> 01:59:40,000
Strike two calls.

1542
01:59:40,000 --> 01:59:42,000
Good pass ball on the outside.

1543
01:59:42,000 --> 01:59:44,000
It's one and two.

1544
01:59:44,000 --> 01:59:46,000
Ball and two strikes.

1545
01:59:46,000 --> 01:59:48,000
That's the count for Cleo James.

1546
01:59:48,000 --> 01:59:49,000
A run in, the bases loaded.

1547
01:59:49,000 --> 01:59:51,000
The Giants lead nine to six.

1548
01:59:51,000 --> 01:59:53,000
The Cubs threaten.

1549
01:59:53,000 --> 01:59:55,000
In field, double play position.

1550
01:59:55,000 --> 01:59:58,000
The outfield backed up.

1551
01:59:58,000 --> 02:00:01,000
Right hand batting James facing John Cumberland.

1552
02:00:01,000 --> 02:00:05,000
He's away from third, Rudolph from second, Breeden from first.

1553
02:00:05,000 --> 02:00:08,000
Low for a ball that's two and two.

1554
02:00:08,000 --> 02:00:09,000
Close pitch.

1555
02:00:09,000 --> 02:00:13,000
James didn't go for it.

1556
02:00:13,000 --> 02:00:19,000
James is the sixth man to bat the inning.

1557
02:00:19,000 --> 02:00:21,000
Cubs scored three times in the sixth inning.

1558
02:00:21,000 --> 02:00:25,000
They've scored once and continue to threaten here in the seventh.

1559
02:00:25,000 --> 02:00:30,000
Way high with a curve ball attempt.

1560
02:00:30,000 --> 02:00:33,000
And now three and two.

1561
02:00:33,000 --> 02:00:41,000
Cumberland has gone as far as he can with James.

1562
02:00:41,000 --> 02:00:44,000
Three-two count for the right-hand batter.

1563
02:00:44,000 --> 02:00:47,000
Cumberland winds with a three-two pitch.

1564
02:00:47,000 --> 02:00:49,000
Dribble to first base.

1565
02:00:49,000 --> 02:00:53,000
Goodson steps on first, throws to the plate too late.

1566
02:00:53,000 --> 02:00:59,000
To get the runner coming in, he retired James at first base.

1567
02:00:59,000 --> 02:01:01,000
The runner that's coming in to score was Torres.

1568
02:01:01,000 --> 02:01:07,000
Goodson had a choice to make there, whether to come to the plate or run over and step first.

1569
02:01:07,000 --> 02:01:11,000
He decided to go to first base, get the sure run and then throw to the plate.

1570
02:01:11,000 --> 02:01:14,000
But by that time it was too late to get Torres.

1571
02:01:14,000 --> 02:01:18,000
The ball was not a double play ball because it was hit too slowly off the end of the bat.

1572
02:01:18,000 --> 02:01:20,000
Runners at second and third.

1573
02:01:20,000 --> 02:01:23,000
Now Breeden moved up to second.

1574
02:01:23,000 --> 02:01:25,000
And Rudolph went to third.

1575
02:01:25,000 --> 02:01:28,000
The batter is Paul Popovich, right-hand batter.

1576
02:01:28,000 --> 02:01:30,000
He's in third place, and they switch batters.

1577
02:01:30,000 --> 02:01:32,000
Takes way high outside.

1578
02:01:32,000 --> 02:01:33,000
Cumberland almost threw that one away.

1579
02:01:33,000 --> 02:01:39,000
It's going nine to seven.

1580
02:01:39,000 --> 02:01:40,000
Two down.

1581
02:01:40,000 --> 02:01:41,000
Runners at second and third.

1582
02:01:41,000 --> 02:01:42,000
Popovich to seventh.

1583
02:01:42,000 --> 02:01:46,000
Now we're going to have a pinch runner.

1584
02:01:46,000 --> 02:01:59,000
Gene Heiser going in to run at second base for Rudolph.

1585
02:01:59,000 --> 02:02:00,000
Or for Breeden rather.

1586
02:02:00,000 --> 02:02:04,000
Heiser running for Breeden at second base.

1587
02:02:04,000 --> 02:02:06,000
Heiser takes over for Breeden at second.

1588
02:02:06,000 --> 02:02:09,000
Rudolph remains at third base.

1589
02:02:09,000 --> 02:02:13,000
And Popovich swings and pops the foul out of play.

1590
02:02:13,000 --> 02:02:14,000
It's one-on-one.

1591
02:02:14,000 --> 02:02:17,000
Cumberland throwing that fastball that tails away from the right-hand batters.

1592
02:02:17,000 --> 02:02:23,000
He's had two of them in succession dribble it off the end of the bat to first base.

1593
02:02:23,000 --> 02:02:27,000
One was close to the bag so Goodson could make the play.

1594
02:02:27,000 --> 02:02:30,000
The other one was off the bag and Cumberland failed to cover first.

1595
02:02:30,000 --> 02:02:35,000
And Goodson could not get over there in time with the ball after he fielded it.

1596
02:02:35,000 --> 02:02:38,000
Cumberland should be on the bench right now had he fielded his position.

1597
02:02:38,000 --> 02:02:40,000
One-one pitch is low for ball two.

1598
02:02:40,000 --> 02:02:41,000
Two and one.

1599
02:02:41,000 --> 02:02:44,000
John's having a struggle out there with his control.

1600
02:02:44,000 --> 02:02:51,000
He's throwing some over the plate and some under the plate.

1601
02:02:51,000 --> 02:02:54,000
That's what spring training is all about.

1602
02:02:54,000 --> 02:02:56,000
He gets himself ready for the regular season.

1603
02:02:56,000 --> 02:03:01,000
That regular season, April 6th against San Diego, that's the opener of Thursday.

1604
02:03:01,000 --> 02:03:05,000
Strike calls and fastball two and two.

1605
02:03:05,000 --> 02:03:09,000
Now it goes to two and two to Paul Popovich playing second base.

1606
02:03:09,000 --> 02:03:11,000
That's over for Glenn Becker.

1607
02:03:11,000 --> 02:03:13,000
Nine to six the Giants lead.

1608
02:03:13,000 --> 02:03:14,000
Nine to seven the Giants lead.

1609
02:03:14,000 --> 02:03:18,000
Two runs in for the Cubs in this inning.

1610
02:03:18,000 --> 02:03:19,000
It's to Popovich.

1611
02:03:19,000 --> 02:03:20,000
Swung on and missed.

1612
02:03:20,000 --> 02:03:25,000
He's fucking out.

1613
02:03:25,000 --> 02:03:30,000
Here in the seventh, two runs on two hits.

1614
02:03:30,000 --> 02:03:31,000
No errors.

1615
02:03:31,000 --> 02:03:35,000
One error and two runners left on.

1616
02:03:35,000 --> 02:03:37,000
Two runs, two hits, one error, two runners left on.

1617
02:03:37,000 --> 02:03:41,000
Nine to seven is the Giants nine and the Cubs seven.

1618
02:03:41,000 --> 02:03:44,000
If you pilot your own plane or fly with someone who does,

1619
02:03:44,000 --> 02:03:50,000
you'll really appreciate the kind of professional dependable service you get at Chevron Airport dealers.

1620
02:03:50,000 --> 02:03:55,000
They give you the kind of red carpet treatment you come to expect all along the Chevron way.

1621
02:03:55,000 --> 02:03:58,000
Special attention from men who know the flying business

1622
02:03:58,000 --> 02:04:03,000
and who know how to provide you with highest quality Chevron aviation fuels and lubricants.

1623
02:04:03,000 --> 02:04:08,000
The Chevron Airport ground crew works as a well-drilled team to take care of your plane.

1624
02:04:08,000 --> 02:04:12,000
And Chevron Airport dealers are always ready with special facilities,

1625
02:04:12,000 --> 02:04:16,000
like a weather and chart room, to help make your flight safer and more enjoyable.

1626
02:04:16,000 --> 02:04:21,000
And usually you won't have to change your flight plan to take advantage of this service.

1627
02:04:21,000 --> 02:04:23,000
That's because right here in the West alone,

1628
02:04:23,000 --> 02:04:27,000
there are over 400 strategically located Chevron Airport dealers.

1629
02:04:27,000 --> 02:04:30,000
And each one will honor your Chevron National Travel Card.

1630
02:04:30,000 --> 02:04:35,000
So if you do pilot your own plane, make sure you take advantage of all the convenience

1631
02:04:35,000 --> 02:04:43,000
and service that's waiting for you at Chevron Airport dealers along the Chevron way.

1632
02:04:43,000 --> 02:04:48,000
Inning number eight, a new pitcher for the Chicago Cubs, Roberto Rodriguez.

1633
02:04:48,000 --> 02:04:52,000
And to tell you about it, there's Bill Thompson.

1634
02:04:52,000 --> 02:04:57,000
Rodriguez, the right hander, 6,385 pounds, a non-roster player with the Cubs,

1635
02:04:57,000 --> 02:05:02,000
was with Tacoma last year, a good one in the last record of 15 and 8,

1636
02:05:02,000 --> 02:05:09,000
an earned run average of 4.01.

1637
02:05:09,000 --> 02:05:12,000
Rodriguez will face the tap at a giant batting order.

1638
02:05:12,000 --> 02:05:16,000
Center fielder Jim Rosario, second baseman Chris Arnold,

1639
02:05:16,000 --> 02:05:29,000
third baseman Alan Gallagher, dude batting the third spot.

1640
02:05:29,000 --> 02:05:39,000
Rosario, a base hit, scored a run in the sixth inning.

1641
02:05:39,000 --> 02:05:44,000
Jimmy, 511, 175, takes low outside ball one.

1642
02:05:44,000 --> 02:05:52,000
Born in Puerto Rico, was raised in New York City.

1643
02:05:52,000 --> 02:06:00,000
Switch batter batting left-handed against Roberto Rodriguez, misses outside for ball two.

1644
02:06:00,000 --> 02:06:07,000
Rodriguez short arms the ball, delivers something in the manner of an infielder throwing,

1645
02:06:07,000 --> 02:06:10,000
at least he does on his first two pitches.

1646
02:06:10,000 --> 02:06:26,000
Two at a delivery, the slider for a strike, two-and-one count.

1647
02:06:26,000 --> 02:06:31,000
Two on pitch to Jim, bounded foul, pass first.

1648
02:06:31,000 --> 02:06:38,000
Rodriguez, Rosario, even at two-and-two.

1649
02:06:38,000 --> 02:06:46,000
In number eight, the Giants in front, nine to seven.

1650
02:06:46,000 --> 02:06:53,000
Rodriguez, fourth pitcher for the Cubs, Jenkins, Pappas, Regan, preceding him.

1651
02:06:53,000 --> 02:07:00,000
Two-two pitch to Rosario, swung out and missed, foul tipped into Rudolph's glove.

1652
02:07:00,000 --> 02:07:03,000
Rodriguez strikes out the first man he faces.

1653
02:07:03,000 --> 02:07:10,000
Rosario, an off-speed hit. Chris Arnold will bat for his first time at the Giants.

1654
02:07:10,000 --> 02:07:13,000
Chris played 120 games at Phoenix last year.

1655
02:07:13,000 --> 02:07:18,000
Outstanding year at the play, batted 343, gotten six games with the Giants at the end of the year,

1656
02:07:18,000 --> 02:07:26,000
batted 231, had a home run, played in the air against the Braves in Atlanta.

1657
02:07:26,000 --> 02:07:35,000
One strike, that's Arnold. One out, the base is empty.

1658
02:07:35,000 --> 02:07:38,000
You know one pitch, swung out and missed, strike two.

1659
02:07:38,000 --> 02:07:51,000
A breaking pitch by Roberto Rodriguez.

1660
02:07:51,000 --> 02:07:59,000
Rodriguez, the time from Rudolph with the two pitch, that side ball won.

1661
02:07:59,000 --> 02:08:02,000
Arnold is mentioning Gallagher saying why me at third base.

1662
02:08:02,000 --> 02:08:07,000
Rudolph has caught the entire ball game, which is very unusual for an opening game of Spring-Jang.

1663
02:08:07,000 --> 02:08:10,000
In the temps are in the nineties.

1664
02:08:10,000 --> 02:08:16,000
Foul tipped, Rudolph is winged by him.

1665
02:08:16,000 --> 02:08:24,000
He's hitting around behind home plate.

1666
02:08:24,000 --> 02:08:40,000
A ball and two strikes on Chris Arnold.

1667
02:08:40,000 --> 02:08:42,000
A one and two count.

1668
02:08:42,000 --> 02:08:44,000
The right-hander batting Chris Arnold.

1669
02:08:44,000 --> 02:08:46,000
Rodriguez back to the plate.

1670
02:08:46,000 --> 02:08:55,000
Pop-up on the left field line coming in is Jim Tyrone waiting and makes the catch for out number two.

1671
02:08:55,000 --> 02:09:00,000
With two outs and the bases empty, Alan Gallagher will bat for his first time.

1672
02:09:00,000 --> 02:09:12,000
Gallagher, 136 games with the Giants last year, batted 277, had a five home run, 57 RBI.

1673
02:09:12,000 --> 02:09:16,000
Right-hander batter against the right-hander, Roberto Rodriguez delivers.

1674
02:09:16,000 --> 02:09:18,000
A breaking pitch that's popped up down along the right field line.

1675
02:09:18,000 --> 02:09:23,000
We have James coming over into foul territory down towards the corner and makes the catch.

1676
02:09:23,000 --> 02:09:27,000
As he came across the line and had to drift towards the outfield fence.

1677
02:09:27,000 --> 02:09:33,000
The Giants go one, two, three against the youngster, Roberto Rodriguez.

1678
02:09:33,000 --> 02:09:35,000
No runs, no hits, no errors, no runners left.

1679
02:09:35,000 --> 02:09:40,000
At the end of seven and a half, the Giants nine and the Cubs seven.

1680
02:09:40,000 --> 02:09:45,000
There are people who used to scoff at the idea of an American-made small car designed in Detroit

1681
02:09:45,000 --> 02:09:50,000
and built in the USA to compete with the highly successful imports.

1682
02:09:50,000 --> 02:09:56,000
Detroit simply cannot provide a proper little car at a proper little price, and that's that, they'd say.

1683
02:09:56,000 --> 02:09:58,000
And some still say it.

1684
02:09:58,000 --> 02:10:05,000
But their numbers have dwindled considerably since the debut and ultimate success of cars like Chevrolet's Vega.

1685
02:10:05,000 --> 02:10:10,000
Not only has Vega proven itself a highly respectable economy car in anybody's league,

1686
02:10:10,000 --> 02:10:17,000
it's also winning friends for its handling, performance, looks, comfort, and ride.

1687
02:10:17,000 --> 02:10:20,000
Vega, the little car that does everything well.

1688
02:10:20,000 --> 02:10:25,000
So well, in fact, that in 1971, its first full year on the market,

1689
02:10:25,000 --> 02:10:30,000
Vega emerged as the most popular little car made in America.

1690
02:10:30,000 --> 02:10:36,000
Chevrolet building a better way to see the USA.

1691
02:10:36,000 --> 02:10:41,000
The first batter for the Cubs is number 34, Jim Tyrone.

1692
02:10:41,000 --> 02:10:44,000
Against John Cumberland in the bottom of the eighth,

1693
02:10:44,000 --> 02:10:49,000
Cubs will lead it off with left-hitter Jim Tyrone, who tripled in the sixth.

1694
02:10:49,000 --> 02:10:56,000
I need to drive in a pair of runs, right-handed batter.

1695
02:10:56,000 --> 02:11:00,000
Come under the plate, lead up is butted and it's foul, pop up back towards the screen,

1696
02:11:00,000 --> 02:11:11,000
a little low pop, no chance for Raider to make a play.

1697
02:11:11,000 --> 02:11:15,000
Both clubs have not completely changed lineups with the exception of Rudolph,

1698
02:11:15,000 --> 02:11:17,000
the Cubs catcher has gone all the way.

1699
02:11:17,000 --> 02:11:27,000
Attendance, the Scots still today, 4396, which is somewhat over capacity.

1700
02:11:27,000 --> 02:11:39,000
Cumberland's 0-1 fetch, breaking ball inside at the ankles, a 1-1 count.

1701
02:11:39,000 --> 02:11:43,000
First baseman Jim Hickman waiting in the on-deck circle, Cumberland delivers.

1702
02:11:43,000 --> 02:11:47,000
Pop-up along the first baseline coming over Goodson towards the mound

1703
02:11:47,000 --> 02:11:51,000
and makes the catch for out number one.

1704
02:11:51,000 --> 02:11:57,000
Tyrone retired on pop-up, the Giants first baseman Ed Goodson and Jim Hickman,

1705
02:11:57,000 --> 02:12:04,000
who popped a second and he numbers six.

1706
02:12:04,000 --> 02:12:07,000
His first play to Prince, we'll move in.

1707
02:12:07,000 --> 02:12:12,000
Hickman right-handed batter against left-hander Johnny Cumberland.

1708
02:12:12,000 --> 02:12:19,000
Prince moves the defense around to the left playing Hickman as a pull-hitter.

1709
02:12:19,000 --> 02:12:30,000
Cumberland kicks and throws, fast ball is a good strike in the outside corner.

1710
02:12:30,000 --> 02:12:37,000
Cumberland with a sign from Dave Raider, breaking pitch just misses inside,

1711
02:12:37,000 --> 02:12:48,000
one strike.

1712
02:12:48,000 --> 02:12:57,000
1-1 pitch on its way, screwball, missed low and outside for ball two.

1713
02:12:57,000 --> 02:13:00,000
Cumberland drops behind on Hickman, two balls and one strike.

1714
02:13:00,000 --> 02:13:08,000
One out base is empty, bottom of the eighth, Giants lead nine to seven.

1715
02:13:08,000 --> 02:13:11,000
2-1 pitch, grounded sharply to Gallagher at third,

1716
02:13:11,000 --> 02:13:14,000
who has it on a second hop, his throw, and plenty of time to get Hickman.

1717
02:13:14,000 --> 02:13:18,000
That's the third solid shot that's been hit at Gallagher since he came out of the ballgame.

1718
02:13:18,000 --> 02:13:22,000
Now batting number 23, Carmen Fanzone, third base.

1719
02:13:22,000 --> 02:13:25,000
Third baseman Carmen Fanzone.

1720
02:13:25,000 --> 02:13:35,000
Fanzone safe on an error, as one previous plate appearance.

1721
02:13:35,000 --> 02:13:40,000
Right-handed batter.

1722
02:13:40,000 --> 02:13:54,000
Cumberland misses, high and away, ball one.

1723
02:13:54,000 --> 02:14:11,000
Breaking pitch is a strike, a 1-1 count.

1724
02:14:11,000 --> 02:14:14,000
Cumberland delivers, breaking pitch, a deep to left field.

1725
02:14:14,000 --> 02:14:15,000
This one has a chance.

1726
02:14:15,000 --> 02:14:21,000
If it's fair, it is fair, it's gone.

1727
02:14:21,000 --> 02:14:29,000
Carmen Fanzone.

1728
02:14:29,000 --> 02:14:36,000
Fanzone hit a home run in his first time at bat in the national league,

1729
02:14:36,000 --> 02:14:38,000
hit it off of Steve Blatt.

1730
02:14:38,000 --> 02:14:41,000
The Pirates hit the first home run of their spring training,

1731
02:14:41,000 --> 02:14:46,000
and he hit a long drive to the left field fence.

1732
02:14:46,000 --> 02:14:51,000
The defense lead is now 9-8.

1733
02:14:51,000 --> 02:14:54,000
Bill North, center fielder, right-handed batter,

1734
02:14:54,000 --> 02:14:57,000
bounce left the middle, through, base hit, center field.

1735
02:14:57,000 --> 02:15:02,000
Into field, Rosario, North, solid ground ball, up the middle.

1736
02:15:02,000 --> 02:15:04,000
Pass, Chris Arnold, on in the center field.

1737
02:15:04,000 --> 02:15:07,000
Number 21, Hector Torres, shortstop.

1738
02:15:07,000 --> 02:15:11,000
Hector Torres, shortstop, who is two for two since coming into the ballgame,

1739
02:15:11,000 --> 02:15:25,000
is a straight-up batter.

1740
02:15:25,000 --> 02:15:36,000
Sort of first by Cumberland, and North gets back in.

1741
02:15:36,000 --> 02:15:40,000
Goodson holding against North at first base.

1742
02:15:40,000 --> 02:15:53,000
Torres choking up on a bat, takes high outside, ball one.

1743
02:15:53,000 --> 02:15:57,000
North getting a lead, held there by Ed Goodson.

1744
02:15:57,000 --> 02:16:01,000
Cumberland watches as Brenner goes, pitches, grounded to left field, base hit.

1745
02:16:01,000 --> 02:16:04,000
On his way to third, now holding up and going back to second is North.

1746
02:16:04,000 --> 02:16:10,000
So Brenner hustles in, comes up with a ball and gets it back into the infield.

1747
02:16:10,000 --> 02:16:13,000
Torres is now three for three.

1748
02:16:13,000 --> 02:16:18,000
Now coming to bat for the Cubs, number 15, Ken Rudolph.

1749
02:16:18,000 --> 02:16:19,000
Hector Ken Rudolph will be the batter.

1750
02:16:19,000 --> 02:16:21,000
We'll pause for a space identification.

1751
02:16:21,000 --> 02:16:23,000
This is the Golden West Radio Network.

1752
02:16:23,000 --> 02:16:25,000
When you want to hear the sounds of the city,

1753
02:16:25,000 --> 02:16:29,000
listen to Rest of the Syracuse Show, midnight to six,

1754
02:16:29,000 --> 02:16:32,000
right here on KSFO in San Francisco.

1755
02:16:32,000 --> 02:16:39,000
It's the sound of the city.

1756
02:16:39,000 --> 02:16:45,000
Hector Ken Rudolph up for his fifth time, three singles, and he has walked.

1757
02:16:45,000 --> 02:16:48,000
Perfect day.

1758
02:16:48,000 --> 02:16:50,000
Cumberland misses, low, ball one.

1759
02:16:50,000 --> 02:16:53,000
North at second, Torres at first, a run in, two outs.

1760
02:16:53,000 --> 02:17:06,000
We're in the eighth and the Giants lead the Cubs, nine to eight.

1761
02:17:06,000 --> 02:17:07,000
North and Torres lead.

1762
02:17:07,000 --> 02:17:10,000
Cumberland flances at second, comes to the plate with a fast ball.

1763
02:17:10,000 --> 02:17:11,000
It's a strike.

1764
02:17:11,000 --> 02:17:16,000
That's high in the strike zone.

1765
02:17:16,000 --> 02:17:24,000
A one-one count on Rudolph.

1766
02:17:24,000 --> 02:17:31,000
Picture Roberto Rodriguez in the on-deck circle.

1767
02:17:31,000 --> 02:17:33,000
Cumberland takes a second look at second base.

1768
02:17:33,000 --> 02:17:37,000
Change up is swung on in this.

1769
02:17:37,000 --> 02:17:51,000
Cumberland gets in front on account of ball and two strikes.

1770
02:17:51,000 --> 02:17:57,000
Frank Fernandez now comes out in the on-deck circle, taking Rodriguez's place there.

1771
02:17:57,000 --> 02:17:59,000
A one-two pitch.

1772
02:17:59,000 --> 02:18:01,000
Bounded slowly towards Stewart Gallagher in front of Phillips,

1773
02:18:01,000 --> 02:18:06,000
as it goes to second in time for the fours.

1774
02:18:06,000 --> 02:18:12,000
Rudolph forcing Torres, Gallagher to the second baseman, Chris Arnold,

1775
02:18:12,000 --> 02:18:13,000
for the final out.

1776
02:18:13,000 --> 02:18:15,000
For the Cubs in the eighth, a run on three hits.

1777
02:18:15,000 --> 02:18:17,000
No Giants, two runners left.

1778
02:18:17,000 --> 02:18:19,000
The end of eighth, full.

1779
02:18:19,000 --> 02:18:23,000
The Giants nine and the Cubs eight.

1780
02:18:23,000 --> 02:18:29,000
They're shocked to stay at Long's Drugs where they make the right behave.

1781
02:18:29,000 --> 02:18:32,000
Whatever you need for your home, you can probably find it at Long's Drugs

1782
02:18:32,000 --> 02:18:34,000
and at a lower price.

1783
02:18:34,000 --> 02:18:38,000
The Long's 59 stores throughout California and Hawaii feature a selection of merchandise

1784
02:18:38,000 --> 02:18:42,000
for your home, family, and personal needs at a second to none.

1785
02:18:42,000 --> 02:18:44,000
And at Long's prices are highly competitive,

1786
02:18:44,000 --> 02:18:48,000
which is another way of saying that Long's sells most things for less than other stores.

1787
02:18:48,000 --> 02:18:51,000
You'll find a wide choice of valuable housewares for your kitchen,

1788
02:18:51,000 --> 02:18:56,000
like fall appliances, glassware, pots and pans, and health and beauty aids

1789
02:18:56,000 --> 02:18:59,000
for mouthwash and toothpaste, hairspray and cosmetics.

1790
02:18:59,000 --> 02:19:03,000
Or for your spring garden, Long's has nail pellets, lawn sprinklers,

1791
02:19:03,000 --> 02:19:04,000
and garden hoods.

1792
02:19:04,000 --> 02:19:05,000
You get the idea?

1793
02:19:05,000 --> 02:19:08,000
Next time you need something for your home or family, shop at your nearby lawn.

1794
02:19:08,000 --> 02:19:10,000
Remember, whatever you need for your home,

1795
02:19:10,000 --> 02:19:14,000
there's a good chance you can find it at Long's Drugs stores and at a lower price.

1796
02:19:14,000 --> 02:19:20,000
Shopping today at your nearest Long's Drugs store.

1797
02:19:27,000 --> 02:19:30,000
The ninth inning of a thriller.

1798
02:19:30,000 --> 02:19:33,000
Nine to eight.

1799
02:19:33,000 --> 02:19:42,000
The Giants lead the Cubs as each manager has sprinkled the field with substitutions in the Cubs.

1800
02:19:42,000 --> 02:19:48,000
Number two ball club has come up with six runs in the last three innings

1801
02:19:48,000 --> 02:19:52,000
to narrow the gap to nine to eight.

1802
02:19:52,000 --> 02:19:58,000
Now the Giants with a single run lead send up Ed Goodson,

1803
02:19:58,000 --> 02:20:04,000
then Gary Matthews, and Bernie Williams against Roberto Rodriguez,

1804
02:20:04,000 --> 02:20:06,000
the right-hander delivers the left-hand batting Goodson,

1805
02:20:06,000 --> 02:20:08,000
who checks his swing and takes his strikes.

1806
02:20:08,000 --> 02:20:14,000
Goodson has struck out and doubled, driven in a run.

1807
02:20:14,000 --> 02:20:15,000
Playing first base.

1808
02:20:15,000 --> 02:20:19,000
Giants had three runs in the first and two in the second.

1809
02:20:19,000 --> 02:20:21,000
You have one in the clip.

1810
02:20:21,000 --> 02:20:23,000
Pop ball out of play, I believe.

1811
02:20:23,000 --> 02:20:24,000
It's over close, Dan.

1812
02:20:24,000 --> 02:20:27,000
No, Panzone is there and makes the cap.

1813
02:20:27,000 --> 02:20:30,000
Pop ball over near the stands and it came back, turned over,

1814
02:20:30,000 --> 02:20:37,000
and Panzone, the third baseman, made the catch about, oh, ten feet probably inside the playing area

1815
02:20:37,000 --> 02:20:38,000
for the first out.

1816
02:20:38,000 --> 02:20:44,000
Now Gary Matthews.

1817
02:20:44,000 --> 02:20:54,000
Giants have had nine consecutive batters retired.

1818
02:20:54,000 --> 02:21:01,000
As Matthews waits, he's 0 for 1, swings and misses, strike one.

1819
02:21:01,000 --> 02:21:04,000
We're in the top of the ninth inning, nine to eight.

1820
02:21:04,000 --> 02:21:08,000
Giants being out hit by the Cubs, 14 to 11.

1821
02:21:08,000 --> 02:21:10,000
Saturn curve, drilled to third.

1822
02:21:10,000 --> 02:21:14,000
Panzone almost falls down but comes up with it, throws to first, and gets Matthews.

1823
02:21:14,000 --> 02:21:17,000
That was a hot shot and Panzone going to his left,

1824
02:21:17,000 --> 02:21:21,000
but it staggered as though he had taken a short left hook on the chin.

1825
02:21:21,000 --> 02:21:25,000
But he managed to keep his balance, gets the throw over to first base for the second out,

1826
02:21:25,000 --> 02:21:38,000
and now Bernie Williams.

1827
02:21:38,000 --> 02:21:42,000
Rodriguez looking in for the sign for the first pitch to the right end batting Williams.

1828
02:21:42,000 --> 02:21:46,000
Swing and a miss, strike one.

1829
02:21:46,000 --> 02:21:50,000
Nothing in one that counts.

1830
02:21:50,000 --> 02:21:54,000
Giants leading by a run, nine to eight in the top of the ninth.

1831
02:21:54,000 --> 02:22:01,000
On the air again, Saturday from Tucson at 1140 San Francisco time.

1832
02:22:01,000 --> 02:22:09,000
The Giants and the Indians pitch is low for a ball.

1833
02:22:09,000 --> 02:22:14,000
Count one and one.

1834
02:22:14,000 --> 02:22:24,000
It's also broadcast Sunday and that game from Phoenix will be televised on Channel 2.

1835
02:22:24,000 --> 02:22:26,000
One-one pitch.

1836
02:22:26,000 --> 02:22:29,000
Check swing and a roller down the first base side foul.

1837
02:22:29,000 --> 02:22:31,000
Williams falling away from that pitch.

1838
02:22:31,000 --> 02:22:34,000
It hit his bat, trickled down the first base side, but it was foul,

1839
02:22:34,000 --> 02:22:36,000
and it's a one-ball-two strike count.

1840
02:22:36,000 --> 02:22:47,000
Top of the ninth inning, the Giants in front nine to eight.

1841
02:22:47,000 --> 02:22:52,000
Rodriguez is the fourth cup pitcher.

1842
02:22:52,000 --> 02:22:55,000
Jenkins, Pappas, Rigan, and Rodriguez.

1843
02:22:55,000 --> 02:22:57,000
Check swing and a roller to shortstop.

1844
02:22:57,000 --> 02:23:01,000
Long throw by Torres is not in time.

1845
02:23:01,000 --> 02:23:04,000
Bernie Williams beats it up.

1846
02:23:04,000 --> 02:23:07,000
Long went over to try to field that ball in front of the shortstop.

1847
02:23:07,000 --> 02:23:08,000
Couldn't get to it.

1848
02:23:08,000 --> 02:23:11,000
Torres made the play a deep short and a flip throw to first was not.

1849
02:23:11,000 --> 02:23:14,000
Not in time to get Williams.

1850
02:23:14,000 --> 02:23:16,000
Dave Rader will be the batter now.

1851
02:23:16,000 --> 02:23:19,000
The Giants get their twelfth hit after two rounds.

1852
02:23:19,000 --> 02:23:22,000
End of the ninth inning.

1853
02:23:22,000 --> 02:23:25,000
Rader has been up once and fouled out.

1854
02:23:25,000 --> 02:23:27,000
Left hand batter.

1855
02:23:27,000 --> 02:23:29,000
Looks at third base coach Johnny McNamara.

1856
02:23:29,000 --> 02:23:37,000
Joey Amalfadano is coaching at first.

1857
02:23:37,000 --> 02:23:39,000
Did the Giants continue on to win this one?

1858
02:23:39,000 --> 02:23:44,000
Ferguson Jenkins would be the losing pitcher, and Carruthers would be the winner.

1859
02:23:44,000 --> 02:23:46,000
They were the starters.

1860
02:23:46,000 --> 02:23:49,000
Jenkins went two innings, gave up five runs to the Giants.

1861
02:23:49,000 --> 02:23:53,000
Carruthers went three innings, gave up one run to the Cubs.

1862
02:23:53,000 --> 02:23:56,000
Throw to first base and Williams gets back in.

1863
02:23:56,000 --> 02:24:06,000
Burnie with an infield hit after two were down, and that broke a string of ten consecutive batters, retired by Cubs pitchers.

1864
02:24:06,000 --> 02:24:08,000
Williams had his lead at first.

1865
02:24:08,000 --> 02:24:18,000
Rodriguez throws over there quickly and Burnie gets back again.

1866
02:24:18,000 --> 02:24:19,000
Two out.

1867
02:24:19,000 --> 02:24:20,000
Williams at first base.

1868
02:24:20,000 --> 02:24:23,000
Top of the ninth.

1869
02:24:23,000 --> 02:24:24,000
Rodriguez pits.

1870
02:24:24,000 --> 02:24:26,000
A fastball strike.

1871
02:24:26,000 --> 02:24:28,000
So a month.

1872
02:24:28,000 --> 02:24:38,000
Don Carruthers will be a guest on the postgame show.

1873
02:24:38,000 --> 02:24:39,000
The expurgated.

1874
02:24:39,000 --> 02:24:46,000
Furson.

1875
02:24:46,000 --> 02:24:49,000
Williams away from first.

1876
02:24:49,000 --> 02:25:02,000
Throw to first base. He gets back.

1877
02:25:02,000 --> 02:25:04,000
Pit outside for a ball.

1878
02:25:04,000 --> 02:25:07,000
Raider has a one-on-one count.

1879
02:25:07,000 --> 02:25:10,000
Opening day at Candlestick Park is April 6th.

1880
02:25:10,000 --> 02:25:13,000
There are tickets available.

1881
02:25:13,000 --> 02:25:22,000
You may order tickets through the mail.

1882
02:25:22,000 --> 02:25:28,000
A box seats, $4.50, reserves three and a half.

1883
02:25:28,000 --> 02:25:32,000
Address, Giants ticket office, Candlestick Park, San Francisco, 9-4-1-2-4.

1884
02:25:32,000 --> 02:25:34,000
Opening day, April 6th.

1885
02:25:34,000 --> 02:25:40,000
Doubleheader with the Padres on Sunday, April 9th, and bat day is Sunday, April 23rd against Houston.

1886
02:25:40,000 --> 02:25:48,000
Raider takes outside for a ball and it's two and one.

1887
02:25:48,000 --> 02:25:52,000
Candlestick Park, wearing a brand new uniform this year.

1888
02:25:52,000 --> 02:26:02,000
They've really done a remarkable job in there.

1889
02:26:02,000 --> 02:26:04,000
Looking first, the 2-1 pit.

1890
02:26:04,000 --> 02:26:06,000
Lowell for ball three.

1891
02:26:06,000 --> 02:26:07,000
Rodriguez behind on Raider.

1892
02:26:07,000 --> 02:26:10,000
Mike Phillips is due up next.

1893
02:26:10,000 --> 02:26:13,000
Young shortstop.

1894
02:26:13,000 --> 02:26:20,000
He will bat if Raider keeps things going here with two down on the ninth.

1895
02:26:20,000 --> 02:26:31,000
Nine to eight, San Francisco in front of the Chicago Cubs.

1896
02:26:31,000 --> 02:26:33,000
Stretched by Rodriguez.

1897
02:26:33,000 --> 02:26:38,000
Swung on, line drive into left center field, going over the left fielder and dropped the ball.

1898
02:26:38,000 --> 02:26:39,000
Does Tyrone.

1899
02:26:39,000 --> 02:26:40,000
Williams is around third.

1900
02:26:40,000 --> 02:26:41,000
He's heading for the plate.

1901
02:26:41,000 --> 02:26:45,000
The throw comes into the middle of the infield and Williams has scored.

1902
02:26:45,000 --> 02:26:46,000
At second is Raider.

1903
02:26:46,000 --> 02:26:48,000
That was a low line shot into left center field.

1904
02:26:48,000 --> 02:26:54,000
Tyrone with good speed got there, but the ball kicked off the heel of his glove.

1905
02:26:54,000 --> 02:27:00,000
Drop to the ground and Williams, flying from first base, comes in to score.

1906
02:27:00,000 --> 02:27:07,000
And we'll see how that is scored, a double or an air.

1907
02:27:07,000 --> 02:27:10,000
The Giants now lead it by a score of ten to eight.

1908
02:27:10,000 --> 02:27:15,000
And Mike Phillips is the batter with Raider over at second base.

1909
02:27:15,000 --> 02:27:22,000
It's a two-base double.

1910
02:27:22,000 --> 02:27:26,000
Raider at second base as Phillips grabs the first pitch, two second base.

1911
02:27:26,000 --> 02:27:31,000
Up with Popovich, he's throw to first and the side is retired, but the Giants get a run on two hits.

1912
02:27:31,000 --> 02:27:35,000
No error, then a runner left on.

1913
02:27:35,000 --> 02:27:42,000
And as we go to the bottom of the ninth, the score, the Giants ten and the Cubs eight.

1914
02:27:42,000 --> 02:27:46,000
It seems that the more you get to know about baseball, the more you enjoy it.

1915
02:27:46,000 --> 02:27:51,000
And one of the most important things to know is how great a cold hands goes with ball games.

1916
02:27:51,000 --> 02:27:52,000
Anywhere, anytime.

1917
02:27:52,000 --> 02:27:56,000
Like right now, for example, while you're listening to this game with the rest of the Brotherhood,

1918
02:27:56,000 --> 02:28:01,000
unlike most beers today, Ham's Tap and Regular is brewed natural, nothing artificial about it.

1919
02:28:01,000 --> 02:28:06,000
So Ham's has a natural drinkability that's been keeping big beer drinkers happy for over a hundred years.

1920
02:28:06,000 --> 02:28:08,000
Let's drink to that, shall we?

1921
02:28:08,000 --> 02:28:10,000
Now there's a big beer, Brotherhood.

1922
02:28:10,000 --> 02:28:15,000
Men who like lots of beer, join the Brotherhood of Ham.

1923
02:28:15,000 --> 02:28:18,000
Join the big beer, Brotherhood.

1924
02:28:18,000 --> 02:28:23,000
And see, there's always room, and you're in the place to be.

1925
02:28:20,000 --> 02:28:30,000
energy, and the day, it takes a town of big beers.

1926
02:28:30,000 --> 02:28:37,000
Brotherhood, the big beer's taking Brotherhood, the big beer's taking Brotherhood of Ham.

1927
02:28:37,000 --> 02:28:47,000
Now heading for the pitcher, number 47, Frank Fernandez.

1928
02:28:47,000 --> 02:28:56,000
Frank Fernandez will come up to hit for the pitcher, Rodriguez.

1929
02:28:56,000 --> 02:29:03,000
Fernandez, the right-hand batter.

1930
02:29:03,000 --> 02:29:09,000
As Cumberland looks in for the sign for the pitch to Fernandez,

1931
02:29:09,000 --> 02:29:13,000
John delivers, swung on, grounded down the third baseline, it was off his foot.

1932
02:29:13,000 --> 02:29:15,000
Foul ball, strike one count.

1933
02:29:15,000 --> 02:29:21,000
Ball was in fair territory, but it hit the batter on the foot when he fouled it at the plate, and it's a strike one count.

1934
02:29:21,000 --> 02:29:26,000
Cumberland has a two-run lead, ten to eight.

1935
02:29:26,000 --> 02:29:37,000
The Giants trying for the sixth consecutive time to beat the Chicago Cubs in the spring opener.

1936
02:29:37,000 --> 02:29:39,000
Cumberland into the windup for the pitch.

1937
02:29:39,000 --> 02:29:43,000
High for a ball, it's one-on-one.

1938
02:29:43,000 --> 02:29:51,000
Ball on the strike, John Cumberland, who last year was in the Giants starting rotation.

1939
02:29:51,000 --> 02:29:57,000
His difficulties out here this afternoon, pitch a strike call, that one's just in the strike zone.

1940
02:29:57,000 --> 02:30:02,000
It's a ball and two strikes.

1941
02:30:02,000 --> 02:30:11,000
Might have been a strike if he'd had Fay Wray in his arms, but it looked to be a little bit high.

1942
02:30:11,000 --> 02:30:18,000
One-two pitch, outside for a ball, and it's two and two.

1943
02:30:18,000 --> 02:30:22,000
Hotfield playing back deep against Fernandez, batting for the pitcher, top of the order.

1944
02:30:22,000 --> 02:30:27,000
Then Cleo James and Paul Popovich.

1945
02:30:27,000 --> 02:30:33,000
Two-two pitch, lead up is just a bit low, and it's three and two.

1946
02:30:33,000 --> 02:30:41,000
He'd give him a screwball that time, and it was just below the knee, so it's a full count of three and two.

1947
02:30:41,000 --> 02:30:48,000
Cumberland not wanting to walk anybody, certainly not the leadoff man in the bottom of the ninth inning.

1948
02:30:48,000 --> 02:30:53,000
But he is as far as he can go down, three and two is three-two pitch, swung on, cracked foul to the left,

1949
02:30:53,000 --> 02:30:57,000
past third base coach Pete Reeser.

1950
02:30:57,000 --> 02:31:05,000
Dimensions here in Scottsdale, 360 down the line, 375 to left and right, 417 to left and right center,

1951
02:31:05,000 --> 02:31:07,000
and 430 to straightaway center field.

1952
02:31:07,000 --> 02:31:13,000
Ball park, three-two pitch, ball four, he walked in.

1953
02:31:13,000 --> 02:31:22,000
Cumberland walks the leadoff man, and Cleo James will be the latter.

1954
02:31:22,000 --> 02:31:27,000
Raider goes out to talk to Cumberland.

1955
02:31:27,000 --> 02:31:37,000
James has walked and grounded out in his two trips.

1956
02:31:37,000 --> 02:31:46,000
Right-hand batter against the left-hand pitching of John Cumberland.

1957
02:31:46,000 --> 02:31:53,000
Giants hopefully looking for a double-playground ball in this spot.

1958
02:31:53,000 --> 02:32:02,000
Cumberland stretches for the first pitch, a strike called 0-1-1.

1959
02:32:02,000 --> 02:32:07,000
Cubs have scored in the third, fourth, sixth, seventh, and eighth inning.

1960
02:32:07,000 --> 02:32:09,000
Have a runner on here with nobody out.

1961
02:32:09,000 --> 02:32:13,000
The bottom of the ninth, the Giants are in front by two, 10-8.

1962
02:32:13,000 --> 02:32:21,000
Line drive foul, look out, ooh, that one skipped over the low fence in right field and shot into the stand.

1963
02:32:21,000 --> 02:32:29,000
There aren't many empty places where that ball can land.

1964
02:32:29,000 --> 02:32:40,000
Got his 0-2 to James.

1965
02:32:40,000 --> 02:32:52,000
Stretched by Cumberland and the 0-2 pitch, low and inside for a ball, one and two.

1966
02:32:52,000 --> 02:33:00,000
Giants play the Oakwood A's tomorrow at Mesa.

1967
02:33:00,000 --> 02:33:04,000
One-two pitch, top foul out of play.

1968
02:33:04,000 --> 02:33:09,000
Stays at a ball and two strikes.

1969
02:33:09,000 --> 02:33:17,000
Herman Franks, ex-manager of the Giants in town, his vacation and watch baseball.

1970
02:33:17,000 --> 02:33:20,000
Bob Hossam, the general manager of the Cincinnati Reds also here.

1971
02:33:20,000 --> 02:33:27,000
John Holland, of course, for the Chicago Cubs.

1972
02:33:27,000 --> 02:33:34,000
Pitch fouled away, out of play to the right.

1973
02:33:34,000 --> 02:33:39,000
Herman now to travel has one of those big trucks with everything in it.

1974
02:33:39,000 --> 02:33:43,000
He has everything but the Count Basie band.

1975
02:33:43,000 --> 02:33:47,000
Actually does have a small combo for dancing late in the evening.

1976
02:33:47,000 --> 02:33:52,000
That's really some traveling outfit that he has.

1977
02:33:52,000 --> 02:33:56,000
Pitches up high for a ball.

1978
02:33:56,000 --> 02:34:00,000
It's known as a recreational vehicle.

1979
02:34:00,000 --> 02:34:06,000
You have to pull off the side of the road for that, don't you?

1980
02:34:06,000 --> 02:34:09,000
Two and two count.

1981
02:34:09,000 --> 02:34:12,000
Runner at first, take two pitch.

1982
02:34:12,000 --> 02:34:14,000
Swung on one hopper to third base.

1983
02:34:14,000 --> 02:34:16,000
Gallagher throws the second for one.

1984
02:34:16,000 --> 02:34:22,000
Arnold's throw to first is low, but dug out by Goodson on a good backhand catch by Goodson of that ball in the dirt.

1985
02:34:22,000 --> 02:34:25,000
And it's a double play.

1986
02:34:25,000 --> 02:34:34,000
The Giants get the double play to erase two men.

1987
02:34:34,000 --> 02:34:48,000
Paul Popovich, who is 0 for 2, Cumberland one out away from recording the Giants' first win of the season.

1988
02:34:48,000 --> 02:34:50,000
Popovich batting right-handed against Cumberland.

1989
02:34:50,000 --> 02:34:54,000
All of the switch batters, two down, bases empty.

1990
02:34:54,000 --> 02:35:09,000
Cumberland's pitch to Popovich is low for a ball, 1-0.

1991
02:35:09,000 --> 02:35:12,000
1-0 count.

1992
02:35:12,000 --> 02:35:15,000
1-0 pitch. Popovich pops it up.

1993
02:35:15,000 --> 02:35:18,000
Should be it as Goodson moves into foul territory.

1994
02:35:18,000 --> 02:35:23,000
Waits, makes the catch, almost drops it, and that is the final out.

1995
02:35:23,000 --> 02:35:30,000
So here in the ninth, no runs, no hits, no errors, no one left off.

1996
02:35:30,000 --> 02:35:39,000
And the Giants win it by a score of 10-8.

1997
02:35:39,000 --> 02:35:50,000
The final total, the Giants, 10 runs on 13 hits and one error.

1998
02:35:50,000 --> 02:35:54,000
The Cubs, 8 runs on 14 hits and one error.

1999
02:35:54,000 --> 02:35:58,000
The winning pitcher is Don Carrizas, who will be our post-game interview.

2000
02:35:58,000 --> 02:36:21,000
And the losing pitcher is the starter, Ferguson Jenkins.
