00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:14,000
The Chicago Cubs faced the Chicago White Sox in Scottsdale, Arizona for a spring training game on April 4th, 1971.

3
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:24,000
The Cubs were managed by Leo DeRosier. They were coming off two consecutive second-place finishes behind the Mets and Pirates and were looking to win their first pennant in 25 years.

4
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:34,000
The White Sox were managed by Chuck Tanner. He was in his first full season after finishing up the disastrous 106 loss season in 1970 under manager Don Goodridge.

5
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:58,000
This audio recording is from the Chicago Radio broadcast featuring announcers Harry Carey and Ralph Foucher.

6
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:12,000
The Cubs were managed by Andrews at second base. At third base hitting clean up will be Bill Melton at third base.

7
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:18,000
At first base hitting fifth will be Carlos May at first base.

8
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:24,000
Batting sixth and playing center field will be Rick Reichert in center field.

9
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:30,000
In right field batting seventh will be Rich McKinney playing right field today.

10
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:38,000
The catcher hitting eighth will be Ed Herman. Herman the catcher and the pitcher right-hander Tom Bradley is 24 years old and has had a great spring.

11
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:44,000
The Cubs lineup will give you a moment but right now B.B. Richards steps into the batter's box and we're all set to go.

12
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:50,000
This is the third final in rubber game between these two clubs.

13
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:57,000
Here is Milt Pappas, first pitch of the ballgame. He bonds but pops it in the air. It's going to be an easy out. Pappas is under the ball and has it.

14
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:02,000
Richard on the first pitch tried to bond and popped the ball to the pitcher Milt Pappas.

15
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:07,000
That's one out and here's Walt Williams playing on field and batting second today.

16
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Walt Williams

17
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:27,000
Williams hitting 351 for the spring games with two homers. 11 runs batted in.

18
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Right-handed batter steps in. The Cubs have Pappas on the mound. Rudolph doing the catching. Hickman at first base. Becker at second.

19
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Kessinger charged Santo at third to pitch. Curveball outside. One ball and no strikes. One man out.

20
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:51,000
Not a cloud in this blanket of azure blue above from which shines a red hot sun. Here's the pitch on the way. Swung on. Bouncing ball foul.

21
00:02:51,000 --> 00:03:02,000
Knocked down by Joel Lynette coaching at third base. Luke Ampling got a big hand. Hall of Famer as he was introduced coaching at first base.

22
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:10,000
White Sox trainer Charlie Sadd wanting to be remembered to everybody back home. Here's the pitch. He started the swing held up. It's in there for a strike call.

23
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:19,000
Larry Barnett to play to umpire. Harold Band is umpiring at first base. Marty Springstead at second base. Haven't identified the umpire at third base as yet.

24
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:29,000
Paul Runge who's a son of Ed Runge. Veteran American League umpire. The pitch. Swung on. Ground ball headed for right field. Hickman knocks it out. Recovers close play.

25
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:36,000
Out at first base. Play went from Hickman to Pappas covering on a close play.

26
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:41,000
That's two gone and brings up Mike Andrews. And this will give you an idea.

27
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:49,000
How Andrews is rated by his manager Chuck Tanner. The fact that he is batting third. Usually the best hitter of a ball club is the third place hitter.

28
00:03:49,000 --> 00:04:00,000
For example Billy Williams hits third for the Chicago Cubs. Two men are out. Nobody on base. Mike Andrews at the plate. Andrews hitting 385 for the spring game.

29
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Had one homer. Twelve runs batted in. Big handsome right handed dotter. Here's a windup by Pappas. The pitch on the way. Swung at a fastball and he missed it.

30
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:19,000
This baseball field. The Cubs home training base. The field is encircled by a range of mountains. Very picturesque setting.

31
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:27,000
Now the pitch. Change of pace. Swung on. Little pop fly. Behind second base. Kessinger going out. Bechard going out. Bechard makes the catch.

32
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:50,000
And that retired was on. Andrews popped to Bechard and short center. One two three nothing across. We move now to the bottom of the first inning. The White Sox nothing. The Cubs coming to bat.

33
00:04:50,000 --> 00:05:04,000
I'm going to run down and get a Coke carry. For a beer I think. Going out to the respective coaching boxes now. Down the first base line of the five. Joey Amal-Peteno. The third base number seven.

34
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:20,000
The fourth rally.

35
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:48,000
We're going to the bottom half of the first inning.

36
00:05:48,000 --> 00:06:00,000
The fourth inning. Don Kessinger's switch hitting shortstop will be the leadoff man as 24 year old Tom Bradley who stands 6'3", weighs 195 pounds, is taking his warm up tosses.

37
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:13,000
A reminder that the White Sox ticket office at White Sox Park in Chicago is open this afternoon until four o'clock so you still have time to get over there and purchase your tickets for opening day or for any of the other games on the White Sox home schedule.

38
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:23,000
The White Sox open their home schedule you know. This coming Friday afternoon April the 9th against the division champion.

39
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:34,000
The twins will be in town over the weekend Friday afternoon, Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon. Hope you'll be there in person.

40
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:44,000
Remember the White Sox ticket office open until four o'clock this afternoon. Here's Kessinger the fine shortstop of the Chicago Cup. Switch hitter batting left handed.

41
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:50,000
Bradley looks down gets his sign.

42
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,000
Ed Herman in the crouch behind the plate.

43
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,000
Now Kessinger steps out of the batter's box.

44
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,000
Kessinger's had a good spring.

45
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:05,000
3-3 11. Now the sign into the wind up here's the pitch on the way.

46
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:17,000
And it's a curveball in the first strike call Bradley started off starting them off with a breaking ball and caught that outside corner. We have another crowd in excessive capacity today.

47
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:23,000
It's a very small seating accommodations here at Scottsdale Park.

48
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,000
One strike and no ball.

49
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:31,000
Nobody out beautiful afternoon here.

50
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,000
Now Tom Bradley getting set once the rosin bag.

51
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:40,000
And the bad boy brings it out.

52
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:44,000
Don't miss opening day friends as coming Friday afternoon April the 9th.

53
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,000
The White Sox against the twins.

54
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:51,000
Now the signal given Don Kessinger waiting.

55
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:58,000
Into the wind up goes Bradley the pitch on the way fastball in our beauty of strike is calling man he had the mustard on that one.

56
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:04,000
Two strikes and nothing even really buzzed a fastball caught that inside corner at the belt.

57
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,000
Two strikes and nothing.

58
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:11,000
Nobody on nobody out Don Kessinger left handed batter against Bradley.

59
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,000
Here's the pitch on the way.

60
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,000
And it's a fastball barely missed the outside corner Bradley is throwing hard.

61
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:25,000
Again a welcome to stations just joining us this weekend will be with us now all season long.

62
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,000
WS IV and Pekin WLNR and Lansing.

63
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,000
WRVI and Rockford WCCR and Champaign.

64
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:37,000
Here's the pitch on the way. Swung line foul into the left field corner.

65
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:42,000
Good friends over Granite City right across the river from St. Louis and WGNU.

66
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,000
And WFNB in Springfield.

67
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,000
And now with iron.

68
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,000
Other stations have been with us right along.

69
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,000
I think it's going to be a very very exciting and entertaining year.

70
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:01,000
Ralph and I have been on hand every day to bring your every exciting thrill and play.

71
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:08,000
Here's the wind up the pitch curveball. Pop foul out of play.

72
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:13,000
Our originating station W.E.W. in Evanston.

73
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,000
With towers atop the Hancock building in Chicago.

74
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,000
So probably one of the greatest FM signals in the country.

75
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:25,000
WTAQ Ralph Foucher's station in LaGrange.

76
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,000
Here's the pitch on the way. Slung on.

77
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,000
Fouled again out of play into the left field corner.

78
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:35,000
My good friend Bill Hanson's station WJOL and Joliette.

79
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:40,000
Dundee WBFB at South Bend WRBR.

80
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,000
Good friend Frank Crozier over there.

81
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:50,000
And a hotbed of baseball interest down in Bloomington WBNQ.

82
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,000
Who've been with us all along.

83
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,000
Here's the wind up the pitch on the way.

84
00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:00,000
Swung on a high pop fly shot left center everybody chasing it everybody chasing it.

85
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,000
Walt Williams is there and he makes the catch.

86
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,000
Kessinger popped to Williams and short left.

87
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:14,000
I told Walt Williams you know yesterday we were assuming it was the wind and the sun that was causing all the outfielders the trouble.

88
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:19,000
But that wasn't it at all. It's this high sky with the ball.

89
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,000
There's no background. The ball comes off the bat.

90
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,000
The background is a lot of white shirts.

91
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:30,000
And because of this high sky there's no clouds at all to serve as a background.

92
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,000
And the players don't see the ball come off the bat.

93
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,000
They're more or less groping and searching for it.

94
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,000
Never having seen it leave the bat.

95
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,000
One out nobody on the pitch on the way.

96
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,000
Beckard hits one hard in the left field.

97
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,000
A base hit.

98
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,000
Glenn Beckard is on there.

99
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,000
He really slashed that ball hard.

100
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:55,000
So Beckard on his first base with one out.

101
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,000
And here is Billy Williams.

102
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,000
What a hitter.

103
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:03,000
Over yesterday.

104
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,000
Our engineer Tom Kenfield.

105
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,000
Popping with the drinks today.

106
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,000
Too bad we don't have a beer sponsor.

107
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:18,000
We could sure add liver plug right now.

108
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,000
See what you're missing.

109
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,000
Breweries everywhere.

110
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,000
Runner at first base one out.

111
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,000
Billy Williams digs in.

112
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,000
The pitch on the way.

113
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,000
Curveball a little bit low.

114
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,000
One ball no strikes.

115
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,000
One out one on.

116
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,000
Bottom of the first inning.

117
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,000
Ah there's that great cabrán.

118
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:39,000
Over here to the left.

119
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,000
Mamie Hurt.

120
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:45,000
Cheering her heroes on.

121
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,000
Now the pitch on the way.

122
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:47,000
We're going bounce ball.

123
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,000
Boy what a cut this guy gets every time up there.

124
00:11:50,000 --> 00:12:00,000
Billy Williams.

125
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:07,000
Billy hit three twenty two last year with forty two homers and one hundred and ninety hundred twenty nine RBI.

126
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:12,000
He'll go over the three hundred mark in career home runs this year.

127
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:16,000
Left handed batter is Bradley throwing the ball over to Carlos May.

128
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:21,000
Wasn't actually on the back.

129
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,000
Now Bradley ready.

130
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:24,000
The outfield plays deep.

131
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:29,000
Here's the stretch the pitch and a fastball is high.

132
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:30,000
Dave.

133
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:31,000
Dave Nightingale.

134
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,000
He lost his Florida tan two days in Chicago.

135
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:43,000
He's just rejoined the White Sox to cover for the Chicago Daily News.

136
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,000
What do you call that scarf you're wearing around your neck.

137
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,000
Apache.

138
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,000
I'll blow a kiss at you the way you look at the pitch.

139
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,000
Apache country.

140
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:53,000
What's that.

141
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,000
This is Apache country.

142
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,000
You wear Apaches.

143
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,000
I will say you do look sweet there.

144
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:05,000
Oh as he dressed funny.

145
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:13,000
Billy Williams the batter here's the stretch the pitch on the way and at the slow curve outside he walked him and the Cubs have something going here.

146
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:18,000
Runners at first and second with one out and here's the next set of number five.

147
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,000
That's all.

148
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,000
Santos had a great spring.

149
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,000
He hit two sixty seven last year with twenty six homers.

150
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:33,000
He drove in one hundred and fourteen runs the year before he hit twenty nine homers drove in one hundred and twenty three runs.

151
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:37,000
This guy's always around that hundred mark on RBI's.

152
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,000
Santo thirty one years old.

153
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,000
He's been with the Cubs since 1960.

154
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,000
So this is 12th year.

155
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,000
Runners at first and second one out.

156
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,000
Here's Bradley getting ready to pitch on the way.

157
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:57,000
Swung at a curve ball and he fouled it back and he had a good cut.

158
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,000
One strike and over.

159
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:04,000
Beautiful afternoon.

160
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:09,000
The baseball season opens tomorrow in the nation's capital.

161
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,000
The senators entertain the Oakland A's.

162
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,000
Here's the stretch the pitch on the way.

163
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:18,000
Curving to the dirt blowing outside even the count of the ball on the strike.

164
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:26,000
Baltimore's Orioles like Chicago's White Sox don't open their season until Wednesday.

165
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,000
Maybe there's a good old man there.

166
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:35,000
White Sox opening the same day that the world champion do one ball one strike.

167
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:44,000
One Santa waiting Tom Bradley's pitch off the stretch here it is curveball bounced on the ground to melt his play will be the second day for one.

168
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:48,000
And that's the only play they can get as Andrews came up with a low throw.

169
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:52,000
Santo forces Williams from Melton to Andrews.

170
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:56,000
That's to go on.

171
00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:00,000
There's a fellow who's come into greatness late in his career.

172
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,000
After years of mediocrity.

173
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:06,000
He started back in 1956 with Albany.

174
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:15,000
There's a guy never hit 300 in the minor leagues.

175
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:25,000
Last year though he had some kind of year he had 315 32 homers 115 runs batted in Jim Hickman right handed batter the stretch the pitch.

176
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,000
It's a fastball a little bit low.

177
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:33,000
These are the kind of situations Hickman was great in for the Cubs.

178
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:45,000
With two outs the difference between having an ending and being scoreless many of the two out hit he got runners at first and third Tom Bradley 24 year old right handed getting set.

179
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:52,000
Now the stretch the pitch on the way here it is curveball a little bit low and outside.

180
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:58,000
Two balls no strikes. Hope you're enjoying the broadcast wherever you might be.

181
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:06,000
Now the signal given the pitch on the way here it is high.

182
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,000
At this point the cassette tape broke.

183
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:16,000
We've missed about an inning during which the White Sox scored a couple runs.

184
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:25,000
We pick it up now with Kenny Holtzman pitching for the Cubs and Joe Pepitone at first.

185
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:31,000
On the suicide squeeze he starts running with the pitch.

186
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,000
And the responsibility belongs to the hitter to be sure to bump the ball.

187
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:42,000
Here it is he bumps but foul on his safety squeeze again.

188
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:48,000
One ball one strike. There's a lot of beautiful scenery here on Scottsdale.

189
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:57,000
And the trees and the grass and the foliage and the mountains and some rather pretty girls in attendance also.

190
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:02,000
One ball one strike here's the pitch. He was going to bump but low and outside.

191
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:06,000
What was that Mrs. Hunt what'd you say.

192
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:12,000
I wonder when you're going to get around to a pretty girl.

193
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:16,000
You can't get away with anything up here.

194
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,000
I was namely a hunt this great cup fan sitting up before.

195
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:20,000
Here's the pitch.

196
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,000
Bump and foul in the air.

197
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:29,000
And what Chuck Tanner is doing here is he wants to stay away from the double play.

198
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,000
And so even though he doesn't have the suicide squeeze on.

199
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:36,000
He has had Bradley Bunning hoping that he'll sacrifice Herman the second.

200
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:40,000
And put it all up to B.B. Richard to get both runners home.

201
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:45,000
Now the stretch by Pappas the pitch he's going to run again but it's outside.

202
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,000
And it goes to three and two.

203
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:50,000
Ray balls two strikes.

204
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,000
Bradley takes a look over at Joe Larnette.

205
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,000
One thing you will notice.

206
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,000
The White Sox this year.

207
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,000
Here's the pitch.

208
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,000
And the first baseline.

209
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:03,000
And let it all stay.

210
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,000
Now they go to first.

211
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,000
That was a smart play by Rudolph.

212
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:11,000
He left the ball rolling hoping it would go foul which would make it a strikeout.

213
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,000
But Bradley is credited with a sacrifice.

214
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,000
From Rudolph to Becker covering.

215
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:21,000
And it's runners at second and third now will pass quickly for identification.

216
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:24,000
This is the Chicago White Sox baseball.

217
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:30,000
And now Lee Richard starts up.

218
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:38,000
Gary look at that girl down there.

219
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,000
This is Harry Carrey with Ralph Poucher.

220
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,000
B.B. Richard up there the pitch low and outside.

221
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,000
He's got a chance to drive in two runs.

222
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,000
White Sox out in front.

223
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,000
Runners at second and third.

224
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:48,000
Two away.

225
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,000
One ball no strike on B.B. Richard.

226
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,000
Chokes up on the bat.

227
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,000
21, 22 year old infielder.

228
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,000
Now the wind up.

229
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,000
Here's the pitch on the way.

230
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,000
Swings and he fouls tips and he had a good cut at that one.

231
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,000
The count evened up.

232
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,000
B.B. from Austin, Texas.

233
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:06,000
He makes his home there.

234
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,000
Born in Lafayette, Louisiana.

235
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,000
He'll be 23 in September.

236
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:16,000
Louis Alvarado is 21 years old.

237
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:21,000
B.B. Richard was in college at Southern University a year ago at this time.

238
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:22,000
Now the signal given.

239
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:23,000
The wind up.

240
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:24,000
Here's the pitch on the way.

241
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,000
Swings and he fouls tips.

242
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:30,000
He's in the hole.

243
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,000
B.B. Richard waiting.

244
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:38,000
Two strikes and a ball.

245
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:42,000
Now the signal given.

246
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,000
Waiting for the signal is Pappas.

247
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,000
Two strikes and a ball on B.B. Richard.

248
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,000
The wind up the pitch.

249
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,000
Swung on high pop fly.

250
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,000
Short left field should be caught.

251
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,000
Kessinger going out.

252
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,000
Williams coming in.

253
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,000
Billy calls for the ball and makes the catch.

254
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,000
Richard Pappas.

255
00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,000
Billy Williams.

256
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,000
Two runs scored.

257
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:01,000
There were three hits.

258
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,000
No errors.

259
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,000
Two men left.

260
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,000
And we go now on the bottom of the second with a score.

261
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,000
White Sox 2.

262
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:16,000
The Cubs nothing.

263
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:21,000
This will be your last chance to purchase the 1971 Chicago Cup roster.

264
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:28,000
For complete information all the players was old time Chicago Cup records and modern records.

265
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:32,000
All this book many died mainly for gold.

266
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:38,000
The 1971 roster book now on sale at the ticket booth in front of the main entrance to the grand.

267
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,000
I died mainly last night.

268
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:46,000
For a guy that was talking about all these 18, 19 year old girls.

269
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,000
How come you wound up with two runs 67.

270
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,000
That's all I was saying.

271
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:54,000
That guy talking about all these places where you're in and all these things.

272
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,000
I'll take you out there tomorrow.

273
00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:01,000
Gee I was really disappointed in you.

274
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:24,000
I just found out I talked about this range of mountains.

275
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:28,000
Which encircles the ballpark and making for this most picturesque setting.

276
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,000
One range is called the superstition.

277
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:40,000
Well the lost Dutchman goal range.

278
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,000
Now many died mainly searching for gold in this range of mountains.

279
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:51,000
I guess that's why they so named it the lost Dutchman goal.

280
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:55,000
Be surprised what you can learn on this program.

281
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:59,000
Here we go bottom of the second inning Johnny Callison leading off for the Cubs first pitch.

282
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,000
He swings at a curve and he misses.

283
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,000
One strike to no ball.

284
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,000
Nobody on and nobody out.

285
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:10,000
An old friend and a great umpire some years ago.

286
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,000
Jaco Conlon on hand here.

287
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,000
Here's the pitch on the way.

288
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:15,000
Swing off, fly ball.

289
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,000
Looping in the left center field for a base hit.

290
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,000
Here's Callison around first base hill hole.

291
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,000
Callison loops a single in the left center.

292
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:31,000
That will bring up Jose Ortiz who seemingly has won the regular center field job.

293
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,000
The next batter number 20 Jose Ortiz.

294
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:38,000
Joe Pepa down.

295
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,000
Being ill the last few days or week or so.

296
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,000
Ortiz has been outstanding.

297
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,000
Three games in a row.

298
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,000
He has had three hits in each contest.

299
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,000
He's totaled nine hits in the last three games.

300
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,000
One at first base, nobody out.

301
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:54,000
Ball game at the bottom of the second.

302
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,000
White Sox out in front.

303
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,000
Two to nothing.

304
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,000
Here's a quick throw to first.

305
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:02,000
The runner is back.

306
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,000
Now the signal given.

307
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,000
Right hand hitter waits.

308
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,000
Here's the pitch on the way.

309
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:11,000
Swung off, fly ball.

310
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,000
Center field.

311
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:13,000
Deep going back.

312
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:14,000
Riker.

313
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:15,000
He's there now.

314
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,000
Makes the cap.

315
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,000
Ortiz flies deep to Rick Riker in straight away center field.

316
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,000
One out.

317
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,000
And that will bring up the catcher Ken Rudolph.

318
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:28,000
Pressed into regular duty as a result of the injury to Randy Oddly.

319
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,000
The Cubs number one receiver.

320
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,000
Ball game bottom of the second.

321
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,000
Two to nothing in favor of the White Sox.

322
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,000
Now the signal given.

323
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,000
Ken Rudolph.

324
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,000
Right hand batter.

325
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,000
Went through the entire season last year without hitting a home run.

326
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,000
Here's the pitch.

327
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:52,000
And it's a fastball outside.

328
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:58,000
Rudolph straddles the plate.

329
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,000
Now the stretch by Tom Bradley.

330
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:01,000
Here's the pitch.

331
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,000
There's a base hit in the center field.

332
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,000
Johnny Caligale is rolling deep out there.

333
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,000
Riker cuts it off.

334
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:11,000
Throwing in the second base it will be a double.

335
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,000
Rudolph doubles into right center field.

336
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:20,000
Riker made quite a play to keep the ball from rolling to the wall which would enable the run to score.

337
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,000
And now that brings up a pretty good hitting pitcher in Mill Pappas.

338
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:28,000
With runners at second and third and only one out.

339
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:40,000
Rudolph last year was with the Cubs for part of the season with San Antonio for the rest of the year.

340
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,000
So he came through with a double in the right center field.

341
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:48,000
That leaves runners at second and third now with one away and Tom Bradley is going to have to go to work.

342
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:54,000
Mill Pappas will be the batter and he's a good hitting pitcher.

343
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:55,000
Bradley gets set.

344
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:56,000
Here's the pitch.

345
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,000
Curveball of beauty in there.

346
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,000
Strike his golf.

347
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:05,000
Pappas makes his home and weakens Illinois.

348
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:09,000
Started the year with Atlanta last year with two loss two and then with the Cubs one ten loss eight.

349
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,000
Here's the pitch.

350
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:12,000
And it's a little bit low.

351
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:16,000
That evens it up in a ball on a strike.

352
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:23,000
Pappas was a member of the American League All-Star team three different times.

353
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:27,000
Runners at second and third the infield playing back.

354
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,000
Here's Bradley pitching off the stretch the pitch on the way.

355
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,000
He swings and he misses a curveball.

356
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,000
Bradley going for that strikeout here.

357
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,000
Don Kessinger will be up there next.

358
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:42,000
We're in the bottom of the second White Sox lead two to nothing.

359
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:49,000
Peanuts Lowry who used to star for the Cubs and then other clubs coaching at third base.

360
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:55,000
Joey Amalfatano who used to be with the Giants coaching at first base.

361
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,000
Now to signal Gibbon.

362
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,000
Two strikes and a ball.

363
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,000
Bradley wants that strikeout here.

364
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:02,000
Here's the pitch.

365
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,000
Swings and he foul tips.

366
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,000
He's still alive.

367
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,000
Two strikes and a ball.

368
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,000
Hot sunshine.

369
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,000
You don't seem to get a tan here though for some strange reason.

370
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,000
It's 105 degrees.

371
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,000
You sit out there eight hours and nothing happens.

372
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,000
In Florida you get to sit in the sunshine about five minutes and you blister.

373
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:26,000
Wait until they see you, I.

374
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,000
Two strikes and a ball.

375
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,000
Runners at second and third one out.

376
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,000
Infield playing back.

377
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,000
Here's Tom Bradley getting ready.

378
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,000
Here's the pitch.

379
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:40,000
He struck him out on a high fastball.

380
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,000
Pappas goes down swinging.

381
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:46,000
So there's the first strikeout and he got it when he really needed it.

382
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:53,000
Now he's got a tough left handed batter to face and Don Kessinger who's a switch hitter.

383
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,000
Two men are out.

384
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:57,000
Runners at second and third.

385
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:01,000
Kessinger with a chance to tie up the ballgame here.

386
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:05,000
The outfield shades Kessinger towards left.

387
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,000
They give him a lot of room in right center.

388
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,000
Kessinger chokes up on the bat.

389
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,000
This fellow's made himself quite a ball player.

390
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,000
One of the best shot stops in the game.

391
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:21,000
The pitch swung on late and fouled out of play off to the left field side.

392
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,000
One strike and a ball.

393
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,000
Kessinger from Forest City, Arkansas.

394
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,000
29 years old on July 17th.

395
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,000
Hit 266 last year.

396
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,000
He had one home run.

397
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,000
39 runs batted in.

398
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,000
Two away.

399
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,000
Ballgame in the second inning.

400
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:44,000
Tom Bradley trying to pitch out of a jam.

401
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,000
Callison a third base.

402
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,000
Rudolph at second base.

403
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:52,000
Bradley a tall, rangy right hander wears glasses.

404
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,000
Now he gets set.

405
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,000
Two.

406
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,000
One strike and a ball.

407
00:27:58,000 --> 00:27:59,000
Two away.

408
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:00,000
Bouncing ball to short.

409
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:01,000
Richard should throw him out.

410
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,000
There's the bag.

411
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,000
It's time to retire the side.

412
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,000
Lee Richard throws out Kessinger.

413
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:11,000
And it's no runs, two hits, no errors, two men left.

414
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,000
At the end of two full minutes, White Sox 2.

415
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,000
What's your name?

416
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:29,000
Chicago Bulls, 80, Los Angeles Lakers, 72.

417
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:46,000
Some celebration here if you want.

418
00:28:46,000 --> 00:29:00,000
This is the former anniversary souvenir yearbook.

419
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,000
And they called Scottsdale.

420
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,000
It's a title we are sure you'll enjoy.

421
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:08,000
And it's for sale in front of the grandstand for only $1.

422
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,000
Is that right?

423
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:19,000
Okay, watch it.

424
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,000
We're going to the top of the third.

425
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:28,000
Tom Dunleavy used to be a Andy Frayn usher in Chicago.

426
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:32,000
Now works for Senator Barry Goldwater out here.

427
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,000
Just give me some information.

428
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:39,000
Number one, they call Scottsdale Chicago Annex, he tells me.

429
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,000
There's a tiny people from Chicago making their home here.

430
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:47,000
The most famous range of these mountains I've been talking about is Camelback.

431
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,000
Then there's another range called the Mummy Mountains.

432
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:53,000
Another one called the McDowell.

433
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:54,000
We learned something.

434
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,000
Here's Wal Williams, first pitch and there's a strike off.

435
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,000
One strike and no balls.

436
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,000
Nobody on, nobody out.

437
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,000
We're on the top of the third.

438
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:06,000
White Sox out in front, 2 to nothing.

439
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,000
Hey, a knuckleball inside.

440
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:19,000
That's something that Pappas has developed, apparently.

441
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,000
Now the signal given, one, one pitch.

442
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:26,000
It's in there, a strike is called.

443
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,000
Wal Williams in the hole now, two strikes and a ball.

444
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,000
Nobody on, nobody out.

445
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,000
Top of the third.

446
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:36,000
White Sox out in front, 2 to nothing.

447
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:41,000
They could claim the baseball championship of Chicago with a victory here where it comes today.

448
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,000
Here's the pitch.

449
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:46,000
Smashed on the ground, second baseman Bechran has it over to first, easy out.

450
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,000
One gone.

451
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:54,000
Here's Mike Andrews, he popped up his first time.

452
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:59,000
Former Chicago sports writer in retirement out here.

453
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:03,000
Ed Prel who used to write for the Chicago Tribune.

454
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:10,000
Wonderful gentleman, good writer, good sports writer, making his home out here now.

455
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:17,000
Rick Talley of the Chicago Today along with his running mate Jim Enright of the same paper.

456
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,000
Eddie Munzell.

457
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:24,000
On hand, Dave Nightingale.

458
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:29,000
Now the Chicago Daily News, Munzell of course of the Chicago Sun-Times.

459
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:34,000
Here's the pitch to Andrews, in rarest, strike is called.

460
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:38,000
One ball, one strike, one man out.

461
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:42,000
We're in the third, 2 to nothing, White Sox.

462
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,000
Here's the pitch to Mike Andrews.

463
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,000
Swings and he fouls it back and boy he had a good cut.

464
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:50,000
Two strikes and a ball, he's in the hole.

465
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:55,000
Beautiful day.

466
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,000
In Scottsdale.

467
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:02,000
If my friend Bill Maybeck is listening at the Ambassador East.

468
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:06,000
Have the room ready about 2 o'clock in the morning.

469
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,000
Wednesday, technically Thursday AM.

470
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,000
Here's the pitch swung on, long drive, center field.

471
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:14,000
Ortiz way back, drifting, waiting now, makes the cut.

472
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:19,000
Ortiz went about 400 feet away for Andrews long drive.

473
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,000
Two up, two down.

474
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:25,000
And here's Bill Melton who started things off with a double of a second.

475
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,000
Right hand and back.

476
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:33,000
This fellow by the way has had a good spring.

477
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:36,000
He's the best kept secret in baseball.

478
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,000
He has 14 RBIs this spring.

479
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,000
Here's the pitch foul on a play out of his 20 hits.

480
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,000
11 have been for extra bases.

481
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:49,000
Making now 12 of his 21 hits for extra bases.

482
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:56,000
Last year he hit 33 homers, drove in 96 runs and nobody even knew he was around.

483
00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:02,000
And like he says, all he ever heard about was the errors he made.

484
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,000
And never about what he hit.

485
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:11,000
Not many men hit 33 home runs.

486
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:15,000
Here's Joe DeRoscia, the manager of the Cubs sitting out in the sunshine at the moment.

487
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:18,000
Two out, nobody on, the wind up, the pitch.

488
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,000
A little bit inside.

489
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:26,000
Bill Melton, strong right hand hitter.

490
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,000
White Sox leading.

491
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,000
Out of signal, here's the pitch by Pappas.

492
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,000
Swung on, a long drive, deep left field, way back.

493
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,000
Might be out of here, it could be.

494
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,000
It is a home run.

495
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,000
Holy cow, did he give that ball a run.

496
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:46,000
Bill Melton clears the left field wall at the 380 mark.

497
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:52,000
And the White Sox now lead 3 to nothing.

498
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:57,000
As my good friend Jack Brighouse would say, hey, hey.

499
00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,000
That's better, we're starting to see Carlos Bay first base.

500
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,000
Hey Jack, how are you?

501
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,000
Get out of here a minute.

502
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:10,000
Jack O'Connor, I was just talking about you a few minutes ago.

503
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,000
And the White Sox lead 3 to nothing.

504
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:15,000
Here's Carlos May, takes the pitch inside.

505
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,000
One ball, no strikes.

506
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:21,000
Jack, oh, your friends in Chicago will be tickled to death to know how good you look.

507
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,000
You look marvelous.

508
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,000
I feel pretty good, Harry.

509
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,000
That old sunshine is terrific out here.

510
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,000
One ball, no strikes.

511
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:32,000
Two men out, a run in, the pitch.

512
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,000
Slider a little bit inside.

513
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:38,000
Your son is a big, what is it, a congressman here, isn't he?

514
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,000
No, no, a state senator.

515
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,000
A state senator.

516
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:52,000
Little did you dream when you were breaking your leg for the White Sox as a player that you'd have the career that you've had and raise a son to be a state senator.

517
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,000
Nice things have happened.

518
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,000
Yeah, he's a good boy.

519
00:34:56,000 --> 00:35:03,000
The only thing I'm interested in right now is the results of Tuesday's election for my good pal Dick Daly.

520
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:07,000
He's been here about seven or eight in a while against that switch hitter.

521
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:12,000
Here's a ground ball hit to the second base, went up with it over to first base in time to retire the side.

522
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,000
Hey, Jack, oh, I didn't.

523
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:21,000
You're entitled to your personal opinion, but they can't get equal time because this is our last broadcast and the election will be on.

524
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:29,000
So we'll just forgive you talking in the zeal of the moment because Mayor Daly must be a friend of yours.

525
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:35,000
All we were raised together is the greatest living American in my book.

526
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:39,000
Jack, we were going to talk baseball and we'll be back.

527
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:43,000
Hey, that's a make a swing that's actually good.

528
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,000
Let me give the totals here for a moment.

529
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:48,000
One run, one hit, no errors, nobody left.

530
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,000
We moved on to the bottom half of the third inning with a score.

531
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:56,000
The White Sox three, the Cubs nothing.

532
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,000
Oh, that's great.

533
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:03,000
That's a good one.

534
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:08,000
Wait, is that Miss Dan?

535
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:12,000
Is that her?

536
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:16,000
Hey, Jack, he doesn't need their own.

537
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:20,000
That's kind of a wooden thing.

538
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:26,000
What's this?

539
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:31,000
Something like that.

540
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:39,000
It's warming up in Chicago. It's now 38 degrees.

541
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:51,000
My wife said yesterday it was snowing in Chicago. She's driving on the street and the sun was shining.

542
00:36:51,000 --> 00:37:00,000
The batter number 18, Glenn Beckard, second pitch.

543
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:04,000
We're going to the bottom of the third. White Sox out in front, three to nothing.

544
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,000
Glenn Beckard will lead it off for the Chicago Cubs.

545
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:13,000
Any political opinions expressed on this program are strictly those of the man expressing them.

546
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:19,000
Here's the pitch swing on a bouncing ball, melting in foul territory fields at strike one.

547
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:27,000
Jacko, I guess the thing you watch when you see a ball game, you watch the work of the umpires more than the players, don't you?

548
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:34,000
That's right. I do. Since I retired playing ball, my whole life was umpiring.

549
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,000
And I really love the game and I miss it.

550
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:42,000
But you know, I would love to see the Cubs and White Sox win.

551
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,000
Oh, I'd love to see them.

552
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:45,000
It would not be a tremendous series.

553
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,000
Oh, it would be tremendous.

554
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:52,000
Here's the pitch to Glenn Beckard now. It's a curveball low and outside.

555
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,000
That evens it up at a ball and a strike.

556
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,000
Nobody on, nobody out. Bottom of the third.

557
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,000
Three to nothing in favor of the White Sox.

558
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:03,000
Bill Melton hit a homer. The pitch.

559
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:08,000
Slow curveball outside. Two balls and a strike.

560
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:13,000
The Cubs, that Pittsburgh ball club, Jacko, you know, they train over in Florida.

561
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,000
We saw them all spring long and they're going to be tough to beat.

562
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,000
They got some bombers up and down the lineup.

563
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,000
Here's the pitch on the way. Swung on a fly ball.

564
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:27,000
Deep right center field going over for McKinney. Going deep, deep, deep. Reaches up and makes the catch nicely.

565
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:32,000
Beckard flies deep to Rich McKinney in right center. One away.

566
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,000
Did you know Chuck Tanner, John?

567
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,000
Yeah, I did a while ago. Great kid.

568
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:44,000
I remember when he broke into the National League and he's been a high class fella.

569
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:51,000
And I saw him manage out here in Pacific Coast League last year because I go to all the games at night here.

570
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:58,000
And he's done a real good job and he's a very real persona of a young fella.

571
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:03,000
I wish him a lot of luck. He's a kid that had a lot of class about him all the way.

572
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:07,000
I'm sure the White Sox fans are going to like him real well, too.

573
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:12,000
Here's Billy Williams. A pitch. Swung on. Long drive. Deep center going back. Reichard, he's got it.

574
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,000
Hey, that ball was really hit on the nose.

575
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:19,000
Jacko, you've seen many great stars.

576
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,000
This Billy Williams is a hitter. Must be as good as any of them.

577
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:28,000
He's got a lot of even a swing as you'd ever want to.

578
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,000
And Aaron.

579
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,000
Enter Aaron, yeah.

580
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:37,000
You know Aaron, I stopped the game a couple of times because I thought he was taking a nap between pitches.

581
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:45,000
He put the bat under his shoulder and I said, you awake, Henry? He said, who? I said, you. He said, what?

582
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,000
But with the ball comes over the plate, those eyes pop open.

583
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,000
Oh man, how he can swing that bat.

584
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:56,000
Here's Ron Santo, the fine third baseman of the Cubs. Two out, nobody on. Ball game in the bottom of the third.

585
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,000
White Sox leading a three to nothing. Here's the pitch on the way.

586
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:02,000
Fastball is in there a beauty of strike is gone.

587
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,000
He's having a great year, Harry.

588
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:05,000
This kid looks good.

589
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:10,000
He's a good golf player. He's done it steady. Real good ball fair since he came in the league.

590
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,000
Two men out. Santo waiting.

591
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,000
He's had a real good spring, as Jacko mentioned. The delivery now.

592
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:19,000
Curbball hit on the ground to the left of Richard. On the run, he's got it one handed. Here's the peg.

593
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:22,000
Nice play to retire the side.

594
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:26,000
One, two, three. A sparkling play by B.B. Richard.

595
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:31,000
Nothing across and at the end of three full innings, the score, White Sox three, Cubs nothing.

596
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:34,000
Yeah, two is going to be good golf here.

597
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,000
Chicago White Sox three.

598
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,000
Chicago Cubs seven.

599
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:42,000
Make a little money.

600
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,000
Folks, we certainly hope you enjoyed.

601
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:49,000
We're going to be right here in Scottsdale.

602
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,000
We might be right now.

603
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:56,000
Hardworking.

604
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,000
Five years ago, we lost.

605
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,000
Whatever you want.

606
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,000
Chicago brought the Cubs back here.

607
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:06,000
They're part of the Scottsdale Chamber of Commerce.

608
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,000
They call themselves the Scottsdale Chargers.

609
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:11,000
A lot of our attendance right now.

610
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:15,000
We're going to stand up and be recognized. The Scottsdale Chargers, please.

611
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:28,000
I'm going to stay at the Ambassadors.

612
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:31,000
I'm going to stay at the Ambassadors to provide as a manager.

613
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,000
Make a deal.

614
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:39,000
Well, that's big league now.

615
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:42,000
We're going to the top of the fourth, the White Sox.

616
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,000
Right in front, three to nothing. Here's Rick Riker to lead it off.

617
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:48,000
Jaco, naturally I'll be living in Chicago all summer long.

618
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:51,000
You better make a list of places for me to go.

619
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,000
Well, I can take you on on that.

620
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,000
But well, those fans hear you in Chicago for a while.

621
00:41:56,000 --> 00:42:00,000
They'll think they're doing right back there in St. Louis.

622
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:03,000
Those fans love you there. They love you all over the country.

623
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,000
And he's going to make it exciting, folks,

624
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:10,000
when he gets down to business and broadcast that ballgame.

625
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:14,000
You think you're in your living room. You think you're right on the ballpark.

626
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:16,000
Thank you, Jaco.

627
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:22,000
The people out here can hear him. When I was up front, I could hear him up there.

628
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,000
Are you insinuating I'm allowed?

629
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,000
No, no. It's got a good way of delivering.

630
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,000
Hey, Pat, how are you?

631
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:35,000
You're exciting. You give them something to think about when the ballgame's on.

632
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:40,000
Not one of those strike and then about two minutes later, ball.

633
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,000
When I retired, I'm fine.

634
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:48,000
When I'm out here, I said, who's playing? You know?

635
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,000
And ball.

636
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:53,000
Strike.

637
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,000
Jaco, you're really too much, you know?

638
00:42:55,000 --> 00:43:00,000
Riker just flied out to center field. There's one gone. There's Richmond-Kinney hitting a high pop fly.

639
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:03,000
Callison coming in, makes the catch, and short right.

640
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,000
Two up, two down. Jaco, I appreciate the nice words.

641
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,000
We've known each other a long time.

642
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:10,000
I've known you for 30 years.

643
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,000
I started at 12 and...

644
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:15,000
Of course you know I started when I was only 8 years old, right?

645
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:19,000
I know. You're 38 and I'm now. You and Benny.

646
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,000
Jaco, it's sure a pleasure to see you. A real joy. Thank you for dropping by.

647
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,000
I really enjoyed being here with you. This is great.

648
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:28,000
Thank you very much. Jaco Conlon.

649
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:32,000
Take me out of Chicago, but you can't take Chicago out of me.

650
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:36,000
He's the greatest advertisement for the city of Chicago I've ever heard.

651
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:39,000
Two men are out. Ed Herman the batter, here's the pitch on the way.

652
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:42,000
And he takes a sinking fastball low.

653
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:47,000
And one of the great men out here in Arizona, one of the great sportsmen, so responsible.

654
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:51,000
He's had so much to do with the team's training out this way.

655
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:55,000
An old friend and a great guy, Pat Patterson, just dropped by.

656
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:58,000
And a pleasure to say hello. Here's the pitch swung on and foul back.

657
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:01,000
How you doing, Pat? Good to see you.

658
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:05,000
Two men are out.

659
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:09,000
Ed Herman the batter. The score, 3-0. Jaco, thanks again.

660
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:12,000
Alright. Okay, buddy.

661
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:16,000
Two men gone. Here's Papas getting ready.

662
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:20,000
The White Sox have a 3-0 lead. Bill Melton, the homers.

663
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,000
Melton doubled also. Here's the pitch.

664
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:26,000
Swung on, bouncing ball, and he is fouled on the first baseline.

665
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:30,000
Melton started our two run ending in the second with a leadoff double.

666
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:34,000
Scored when May tripled. May scored when Ryker doubled.

667
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:37,000
Then Melton the homer with two out on the third.

668
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:40,000
So, Big Bill Melton, the White Sox slugging third baseman,

669
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:45,000
has played an instrumental role in the current 3-0 lead.

670
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:48,000
Now the sign given. Here's Papas' pitch.

671
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:53,000
Swung and a high pop foul back and out of play.

672
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:58,000
Two strikes and a ball. You know, Ed Herman lost about 30 fouls during the winter.

673
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:01,000
He can run faster, he can throw better, he can catch better,

674
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:05,000
but he hasn't hit as well.

675
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:10,000
I don't know if there's any analogy to be drawn.

676
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,000
Two strikes and a ball. Here's the pitch.

677
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:17,000
Swung on and fouled out of play.

678
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:22,000
Beautiful afternoon.

679
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:26,000
There'll be some big days for the youngsters coming up at White Sox Park this season,

680
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:31,000
starting with T-shirt day, Sunday, May the 9th.

681
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,000
Then there'll be a batting glove day on Sunday, May the 30th.

682
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,000
You know, the batting gloves the big leaguers use when they're at the plate.

683
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:40,000
Here's a pitch foul.

684
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:43,000
Then, of course, the ever-popular bat day,

685
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:49,000
where the youngsters get a replica of the bats that their favorite ball players use,

686
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:54,000
suitable for Lunar League play, Sandlot play,

687
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:57,000
autographed by various players on the White Sox.

688
00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:00,000
That's bat day, Sunday, June the 6th.

689
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:06,000
And helmet day, Sunday, July the 11th.

690
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:10,000
And boy, the White Sox have these players coming up at White Sox Park this season,

691
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:15,000
starting with T-shirt day, Sunday, May the 9th.

692
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:18,000
Then there'll be a batting glove day on Sunday, May the 30th.

693
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:21,000
You know, the batting gloves the big leaguers use when they're at the plate.

694
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,000
Here's a pitch foul.

695
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,000
Then, of course, the ever-popular bat day,

696
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:33,000
where the youngsters get a replica of the bats that their favorite ball players use,

697
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:38,000
suitable for Lunar League play, Sandlot play,

698
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:41,000
autographed by various players on the White Sox.

699
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,000
That's bat day, Sunday, June the 6th.

700
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:50,000
And helmet day, Sunday, July the 11th.

701
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:54,000
And boy, the White Sox have these colorful red batting helmets.

702
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:57,000
I know that'll be a popular attraction.

703
00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:00,000
Helmet day, Sunday, July the 11th.

704
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:03,000
Two balls, two strikes. The pitch, Ed Herman.

705
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:07,000
He struck him out. Swing it.

706
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,000
One, two, three, nothing across.

707
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:12,000
And we move along down to the bottom half of the fourth inning

708
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:16,000
to score White Sox three and the Cubs nothing.

709
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,000
We're having a broken-edge windshield.

710
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:26,000
You know, I'm worried, though. I was telling these guys about that.

711
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,000
Unbelievable odds.

712
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:33,000
And yesterday when I went down, I was sure I was going to see a broken windshield.

713
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:36,000
Two in two days.

714
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,000
How you been, Pat? Pretty good.

715
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,000
How's everything at Mason? Same old two and three.

716
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,000
Yeah.

717
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:44,000
Yeah, the weather's been great.

718
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:47,000
It's been a little better than this. Yeah, you look pretty clean.

719
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,000
Hey, Pat, how's the weather?

720
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Is Charlie down? Good.

721
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,000
Oh, that's a big broke camber.

722
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,000
Yeah, they left last night. He didn't really come down.

723
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:57,000
He wasn't down all season?

724
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,000
What's so exciting about him going to the game today?

725
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,000
It's all right? I'm worried for him.

726
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,000
Do you still stay at Mason?

727
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:06,000
Does he have a kind of back at Mason?

728
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,000
Yeah.

729
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:15,000
Boy, this weather has been great.

730
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,000
Okay, Pat, you're good to see you.

731
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,000
Let's pause for identification.

732
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:33,000
This is the Chicago White Sox Baseball Network.

733
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,000
Hey, could I send a message back to Chicago?

734
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:40,000
Could you say hello to all White Sox friends from Johnny Falcon?

735
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,000
Johnny who? Falcon.

736
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,000
P-A-L-K-A. P-E-L-K?

737
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,000
P-A-L-K-A. Falcon.

738
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,000
Falcon, all right. Sure.

739
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,000
Okay.

740
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:55,000
This is Harry Carey with Ralph Foucher from Scottsdale, Arizona.

741
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:59,000
As we go into the bottom half of the fourth inning, Jim Hickman will be leading off.

742
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:04,000
A young White Sox fan named Johnny Pelka wanting to be remembered.

743
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:08,000
The batter is number 28, Jim Hickman.

744
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:11,000
Here's Hickman. Fouled out his first time up.

745
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:13,000
Ball game of the fourth.

746
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:21,000
Rick Talley of Chicago today will be Ralph's guest on the postgame show today.

747
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:26,000
Here's Hickman leading it off.

748
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:30,000
Remember, the White Sox led 2-0 yesterday until the Cubs exploded.

749
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:31,000
Here's a bouncy ball to Melton.

750
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:32,000
Charges, nice pick up.

751
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:36,000
Hopskip and throw. He's out. Good play.

752
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:39,000
White Sox looking sharp out there.

753
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:41,000
Melton had a tough play. The ball sharply hit.

754
00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:44,000
He charged. He hit it on the shorthop.

755
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:46,000
And then threw it perfectly.

756
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:49,000
Here's Johnny Callison single in the second inning.

757
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:52,000
One out, nobody on.

758
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:59,000
Tom Bradley will pitch the home opener next Friday afternoon against the Minnesota Twins.

759
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:05,000
A 1-15 game. All the day games that the White Sox play start at 1-15.

760
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:08,000
All the night games start at 8.

761
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:12,000
Go, Keir! Go!

762
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:15,000
Remember, the White Sox office will be open.

763
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:18,000
Ticket office will be open one more hour today.

764
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:21,000
If you want to drive by and pick up tickets, here's the pitch.

765
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,000
Curveball in there, a strike off.

766
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:28,000
The White Sox ticket office will be open until 4 o'clock this afternoon.

767
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:34,000
You can purchase tickets for opening day or for any of the other games on the White Sox home schedule.

768
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:36,000
They're open during the week, of course, every day.

769
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:41,000
Here's the pitch. Swung at every line, right back to Bradley.

770
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:48,000
Callison, in a low-line drive, a Tom Bradley stab with his glove.

771
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:55,000
And that's seven in a row retired by Bradley.

772
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:58,000
Here's Jose Ortiz now.

773
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,000
Two better outs, nobody on.

774
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:03,000
White Sox leading three to the end.

775
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:06,000
Come on, Dave.

776
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:14,000
Did you ever think of being a nurse when you were a kid, Dave?

777
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:16,000
What did you say, Commander?

778
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:25,000
Two better outs, nobody on base. Ortiz, the hitter.

779
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:27,000
Used to be with the White Sox organization.

780
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:29,000
The pitch, swung on, bouncing ball to short.

781
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:33,000
Maybe we'll get him with a good throw, and he's out.

782
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:35,000
From Richard to May.

783
00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:37,000
1-2-3 again.

784
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,000
Boy, this kid rolling right along.

785
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,000
He's retired the last eight in a row that he's faced.

786
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:46,000
And at the end of four innings that remain, White Sox 3, Cubs nothing.

787
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:50,000
Here's the change in the Chicago Cubs lineup.

788
00:51:50,000 --> 00:52:00,000
Now going out to pitch, number 30, Ted Holtzman.

789
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,000
And here's the scorer late in the fourth quarter.

790
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:15,000
The NBA playoff, the Chicago Bulls 110, Los Angeles 95.

791
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:24,000
And here's another break in the action as I repaired and then changed another cassette tape.

792
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,000
Runner at first, two out, ball game of the fifth.

793
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:32,000
There goes the runner. Strike call, there's the peg, and he is into the stolen base.

794
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:35,000
Wild throw on his way to third base is B.B. Richard.

795
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:38,000
There he goes again.

796
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:44,000
Rudolph threw the ball badly, the ball skipped into center field, and Richard came all the way around to third.

797
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:49,000
And how many has he stolen so far this break?

798
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:52,000
That's his 12th stolen base.

799
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:56,000
He's been in 25 games.

800
00:52:56,000 --> 00:53:00,000
How you doing, how are you?

801
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:04,000
Charlie, how are you?

802
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:11,000
Here's the pitcher, Mike Andrews, and the curveball is low.

803
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:15,000
One ball, no strikes.

804
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:20,000
The pride of the pink pony, a very popular place in Scottsdale, Charlie Bryant.

805
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:24,000
On hand, here's the pitcher, curveball inside.

806
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:33,000
I don't know whether I should give him that plug, because he's got a great big cub banner in that place.

807
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:39,000
Boy, this is really, that's quite a name, Chicago NX.

808
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:41,000
There are a lot of Chicago people here.

809
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:44,000
Mike Andrews trying to get the run home, the pitch.

810
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:50,000
Bouncing ball to the shortstop's left, Kessinger has it, throws, in time to retire this time.

811
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:53,000
So it is, no runs, no hits, one error, one pass.

812
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:59,000
We move now to the bottom half of the fifth inning with the score still White Sox 3, Cubs nothing.

813
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:03,000
Here's a couple of scores from the NBA Playoffs, both finals.

814
00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:07,000
Milwaukee 136, San Francisco 87.

815
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:17,000
Here's another final score, the Chicago Bulls 113, St. Paul, Los Angeles, 99.

816
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:37,000
The Jack Kent Cook probably told them to make it go seven games.

817
00:54:47,000 --> 00:55:10,000
Here's some final scores from the NBA.

818
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:18,000
The Chicago Bulls have extended the playoffs into the seventh final and decisive game which will be played in Los Angeles this week.

819
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:24,000
They beat the Lakers 113 to 99 this afternoon in Chicago.

820
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:31,000
Milwaukee won its playoffs, and listen to this, they wallop the San Francisco Warriors by 49 points.

821
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:35,000
They beat them 136 to 87.

822
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:39,000
What are the odds on Luau Cinder being scoreless in that game?

823
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:44,000
He probably got 100 himself.

824
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:49,000
Here's Rudolph who doubled his first time at bat, leading it off to the Cubs in the bottom of the fifth.

825
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:51,000
First pitch a little bit low.

826
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:55,000
Tom Bradley has pitched four brilliant innings.

827
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:57,000
He's got a three to nothing lead.

828
00:55:57,000 --> 00:56:01,000
Yesterday the White Sox were leading two to nothing in the bottom of the fifth.

829
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:06,000
And then the Cubs exploded. Here's the pitch low.

830
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:09,000
No balls, no strikes, nobody on, nobody out.

831
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:13,000
Joe Pepitone will be next.

832
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:16,000
We're in the bottom of the fifth.

833
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:20,000
Boy, is that here for real?

834
00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:22,000
Now they'll wind up the pitch.

835
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:28,000
Bouncing ball to his left, Milton to his right, Richard a long throw.

836
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:32,000
Out at first base, holy cow.

837
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:36,000
He comes to arguing about it. B.B. Richard went far to his right behind Milton.

838
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,000
It didn't look as if he had any chance to throw him out.

839
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:45,000
Then fired the ball across the diamond on the pick up to Carlos May who came up with the ball.

840
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:48,000
For the out.

841
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:53,000
They're arguing about it. Leo De Rocha comes out now.

842
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:56,000
But it will not affect the decision.

843
00:56:56,000 --> 00:57:07,000
The photo is thrown out on the great play from B.B. Richard in the hole to Carlos May who came up with a bad throw.

844
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:12,000
The Cubs are claiming that May was off the bag when he took the low pick up.

845
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:21,000
Leo De Rocha and Pienaar's Lowry are talking to Larry Burnett, the plate umpire.

846
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:25,000
I guess they feel that Burnett should overrule the first base umpire.

847
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:29,000
Feeling that he would have seen that May was off the bag.

848
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:32,000
Whatever, Rudolph is out.

849
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:35,000
And here's Joe Pepito.

850
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:41,000
The discussion now, Leo De Rocha, he's calling the first base umpire down the line.

851
00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:45,000
And the umpire's making him walk towards him.

852
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:50,000
The umpire at first base is Harold Vann.

853
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:55,000
Now he's talking to De Rocha, Leo with a big two on the back of his uniform.

854
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:59,000
The score three to nothing in favor of the White Sox.

855
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:02,000
Does anybody have a seat?

856
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:04,000
One man out, nobody on.

857
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:07,000
Ball game in the fifth.

858
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:10,000
Joe Pepito waiting to hit next.

859
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:17,000
This gives us a chance to remind you that the White Sox in cooperation with the Chicago Tribune

860
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:23,000
are again offering free White Sox tickets to straight A and perfect attendance students.

861
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:30,000
So if you had perfect attendance during the fall semester or straight A's during the last marking period,

862
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:34,000
be sure to see your school principal for a ticket request bar.

863
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:45,000
The White Sox Tribune straight A program includes Cook County, DuPage County, and all Chicago schools.

864
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:51,000
So Leo De Rocha comes back to the dugout now.

865
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:55,000
Here's Joe Pepito.

866
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:59,000
One out, nobody on.

867
00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:05,000
Pepito, very unhappy with the Yankees, very unhappy with Houston.

868
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:08,000
Tickled to death to be in Chicago.

869
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:11,000
Born in Brooklyn, New York.

870
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:14,000
Pepito, 31 years old.

871
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:18,000
Comes get a lot of guys in that 30 bracket.

872
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:21,000
Here's a curve ball and there's a strike off.

873
00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:23,000
One strike, no balls.

874
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:31,000
And many people feel that this has got to be the year they win or else it's going to be the last who are off for a while.

875
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:45,000
Because so many of the ball players are right at that same 32, 33 age level.

876
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:49,000
Pepito with a count of one ball, one strike.

877
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,000
One out, nobody on.

878
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:55,000
Now the fifth. Curve ball hit on the ground. Bouncing ball, Andrews in. Big hop.

879
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:57,000
Throws to first, easy out.

880
00:59:57,000 --> 01:00:01,000
Boyd as Bradley has handcuffed him so far.

881
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:05,000
Cubs with their regular lineup in there.

882
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:09,000
Now coming to bat, number 11, John Holtzman.

883
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:12,000
Both of them are starters.

884
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:17,000
And here's Kessinger with two out, nobody on.

885
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:20,000
All game in the bottom of the fifth.

886
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:26,000
Bill Melton will be leading off the sixth for the Cubs and he's been red hot, rather for the Whitesides, and he's been red hot with a double and a homer.

887
01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:30,000
Yesterday he had three hits, a couple of doubles.

888
01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:33,000
So here's Kessinger, two away.

889
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:43,000
Here's the wind up the pitch. He was going to bump the fastball as high.

890
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:49,000
Two men are out. Ball game in the fifth.

891
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:52,000
Now the signal given.

892
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:54,000
Tom Bradley.

893
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:58,000
24-year-old youngster went to Maryland University. Here's a bouncing ball hit to B.B. Richard.

894
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:02,000
Hopskipping through, end time. Easy inning again.

895
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:05,000
That's a third straight perfect inning for Bradley as pitched.

896
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:08,000
He has retired the last 11 men that he's pitched.

897
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:19,000
So it's nothing across, and at the end of five to score, the White Sox three, the Cubs nothing.

898
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:24,000
Right.

899
01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:27,000
She's got her knees out there.

900
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:34,000
Right on the other side.

901
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:59,000
No, no, no.

902
01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:14,000
Yeah, sliding.

903
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:23,000
The batter for the 14, Bill Melton, third base.

904
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:26,000
We're going to the sixth. The hitting star of the game so far, Bill Melton will lead it off.

905
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:29,000
And now to tell you all about it, here's Ralph Poucher.

906
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:35,000
All right, Harry, the top of the sixth inning in Melton, as Harry mentioned, has been one of the hitting stars in this ball game today.

907
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:41,000
He doubled and scored in the second inning, and he homered with the bases empty in the third.

908
01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:45,000
Bill Melton.

909
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:49,000
Ken Holtzman came in in the fifth inning.

910
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:58,000
The ground ball shot through to third base Saturday. 12 across the infield, and Melton was out in the first.

911
01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:03,000
You know, the more we see this youngster, Tom Bradley pitch, the more we want to see.

912
01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:08,000
The batter for the 17, Carlos May, first base.

913
01:03:08,000 --> 01:03:13,000
That's on Friday afternoon, Good Friday. He is a dander.

914
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:16,000
One down. Carlos May.

915
01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:23,000
He tripled. So did he run, and scored a run in the two on the second.

916
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:28,000
All the scoring in the ball game, done in the second inning and the third. Two in the second for the sock and one in the third.

917
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:31,000
Three nothing.

918
01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:36,000
The white side. May takes a strike called.

919
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:39,000
Ken Holtzman has not had the kind of spring he'd liked to have.

920
01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:46,000
He's appeared in five ball games. He is one and four high inside the May.

921
01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:51,000
With a 5.63 earned run average.

922
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:57,000
Ken Holtzman. 117 last year. 117 the year before.

923
01:03:57,000 --> 01:04:00,000
They've swung on. Melton beat Brightfield. Brightfield are coming on.

924
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:06,000
Callison calling for it. Has to lead him on this one. And he's got it on the line.

925
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:09,000
Divider number 48 Rick Leiter.

926
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:12,000
Callison had to hurry. His pace cuts a little bit.

927
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:19,000
Two away here in the top of the sixth inning. Things up center fielder Rick Leiter.

928
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:24,000
Doubled in a run in the second inning. And hit the ball well.

929
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:31,000
As he flied out in the fourth inning.

930
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:36,000
Rick Leiter. Who's the bad next?

931
01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:40,000
McKinney is right back there. Ken Holtzman said here comes the next pick.

932
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:51,000
Fastball stop at step two.

933
01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:59,000
Kenneth Dale Holtzman from St. Louis.

934
01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:02,000
He blows the string just a little bit of time outside.

935
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:07,000
A ball one strike two count. Rick Breikart.

936
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:11,000
Playing in center field in this ball game today with Walt Williams and Leiter.

937
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:17,000
Holtzman are making a couple of changes.

938
01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:23,000
A powerball out of play off the right side.

939
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:30,000
Probably will be their opening lineup.

940
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:34,000
When they open it home on Tuesday. Let's hope the weather.

941
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:37,000
Down ball. Pass the ball. Shortstop.

942
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:41,000
It blows. In time he got it by two steps.

943
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:46,000
In the inning.

944
01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:49,000
Three up three down. No runs. No hits. Nobody left down.

945
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:56,000
The end of five and a half. It's still the White Sox three and it comes nothing.

946
01:05:56,000 --> 01:06:01,000
Right to the ice out.

947
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:03,000
Oh yeah.

948
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:05,000
That's good.

949
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:10,000
Right to the pool after the game.

950
01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:13,000
Right to the pool after the game.

951
01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:16,000
Whatever it is.

952
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:19,000
Right to the white.

953
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:24,000
Oh.

954
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:29,000
Oh.

955
01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:51,000
Oh.

956
01:06:51,000 --> 01:07:02,000
Nice.

957
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:04,000
Last seven six things coming up now.

958
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:07,000
At Scottsdale Stadium here under sunny skies.

959
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:10,000
The temperature from the 80s in Scottsdale Arizona.

960
01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:15,000
Joel Horland is on the mound now for the White Sox.

961
01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:19,000
Tom Bradley pitched a brilliant five innings.

962
01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:22,000
No runs. He allowed three hits. Walk one. Stuck out one.

963
01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:27,000
And Horland with two spring wins and no losses.

964
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:30,000
He's been in five ball games. Pitched 22 innings.

965
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:33,000
Earned run average of two point eight six.

966
01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:35,000
Horland the new Sox pitcher.

967
01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:37,000
Throwing in some normal crosses.

968
01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:40,000
Had a note handed to us earlier saying that.

969
01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:42,000
He mentioned.

970
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:47,000
I believe it's the Cubers in Cissna Park, Illinois.

971
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:50,000
I have a notice from.

972
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:53,000
Randy's parents.

973
01:07:53,000 --> 01:07:55,000
The number 18.

974
01:07:55,000 --> 01:08:04,000
One Becker.

975
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:06,000
Bottom to six.

976
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:09,000
White Sox lead.

977
01:08:09,000 --> 01:08:14,000
Take home 20 spring wins.

978
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:25,000
It's a one to one basis.

979
01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:35,000
It's a long.

980
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:38,500
and he's got Richard and Alvarado and he's rolling.

981
01:08:38,500 --> 01:08:41,500
He's got a preview of Joe and Harry.

982
01:08:41,500 --> 01:08:44,500
But Janet Cromwell hasn't made up his mind

983
01:08:44,500 --> 01:08:46,500
as to which will be number one.

984
01:08:46,500 --> 01:08:48,500
They're both playing and they're both number one.

985
01:08:48,500 --> 01:08:51,500
They're going to get the equal sign.

986
01:08:51,500 --> 01:08:53,500
Billy Williams, wide wall.

987
01:08:53,500 --> 01:08:55,500
The right side is going to be on play, I believe,

988
01:08:55,500 --> 01:08:57,500
back in the stands.

989
01:08:57,500 --> 01:08:59,500
He's got a cut.

990
01:09:03,500 --> 01:09:06,500
Williams has played in 24 ball games,

991
01:09:06,500 --> 01:09:08,500
hitting 397.

992
01:09:08,500 --> 01:09:13,500
Five doubles, two trips, four home runs, 12 RBI.

993
01:09:17,500 --> 01:09:19,500
A ball player, ball player.

994
01:09:19,500 --> 01:09:22,500
He's got a special RBI, five points.

995
01:09:22,500 --> 01:09:25,500
One out, last to the sixth.

996
01:09:25,500 --> 01:09:29,500
A wide shot leads the club in this weather game.

997
01:09:29,500 --> 01:09:31,500
Nothing, one ball is short.

998
01:09:31,500 --> 01:09:36,500
Andrews has made easy toss, easy out, two away.

999
01:09:36,500 --> 01:09:39,500
Moving up to this from Lonsanto.

1000
01:09:42,500 --> 01:09:46,500
The answer is one of the ten, Rob Beckel.

1001
01:09:46,500 --> 01:09:52,500
Two home runs, 16 RBI.

1002
01:09:52,500 --> 01:09:55,500
The club leader in that little apartment.

1003
01:09:55,500 --> 01:09:57,500
A lot of RBI.

1004
01:09:57,500 --> 01:10:00,500
That's a film with 14 RBI.

1005
01:10:02,500 --> 01:10:04,500
Allison has 12.

1006
01:10:04,500 --> 01:10:06,500
Billy Williams has 12.

1007
01:10:06,500 --> 01:10:09,500
Hal Breeden, 11.

1008
01:10:09,500 --> 01:10:11,500
Hal Breeden.

1009
01:10:11,500 --> 01:10:13,500
A good power winner.

1010
01:10:13,500 --> 01:10:16,500
Danny, I guess, was cut from the club last year's day.

1011
01:10:16,500 --> 01:10:18,500
He's a catcher.

1012
01:10:30,500 --> 01:10:34,500
The next player, number 38, Kenny Holtzman.

1013
01:10:34,500 --> 01:10:40,500
He's a good guy, Joe Hannon, and only the fourth come into the ballgame.

1014
01:10:41,500 --> 01:10:43,500
Mark Ken Holtzman.

1015
01:10:43,500 --> 01:10:47,500
Holtzman is batting in the number five spot.

1016
01:10:47,500 --> 01:10:49,500
When Pepperton and Holtzman came into the ballgame,

1017
01:10:49,500 --> 01:10:53,500
Pepperton batted in the number nine spot in the fifth inning,

1018
01:10:53,500 --> 01:10:57,500
and Holtzman goes in the number five spot.

1019
01:10:57,500 --> 01:11:00,500
Holtzman is not a bad hitting pitcher.

1020
01:11:00,500 --> 01:11:04,500
Two away, running at first base.

1021
01:11:04,500 --> 01:11:06,500
In the last of the sixth.

1022
01:11:06,500 --> 01:11:08,500
Fastball is low.

1023
01:11:08,500 --> 01:11:10,500
Walt Williams in left field for the ballgame,

1024
01:11:10,500 --> 01:11:14,500
Rick Wright in the center, Rich McKean in the right.

1025
01:11:14,500 --> 01:11:17,500
Bill Melton, Zee Richard, Mike Andrews,

1026
01:11:17,500 --> 01:11:20,500
Carlos May around the infield, the catcher is Ed Newman.

1027
01:11:20,500 --> 01:11:25,500
It will open 315 broadcast time on Wednesday afternoon.

1028
01:11:25,500 --> 01:11:27,500
It started as when you tried to check,

1029
01:11:27,500 --> 01:11:31,500
hit the bat, went to the back side.

1030
01:11:31,500 --> 01:11:35,500
Ball to strike one.

1031
01:11:38,500 --> 01:11:42,500
Johnny Callison blew up next.

1032
01:11:42,500 --> 01:11:45,500
Any chance he gets.

1033
01:11:45,500 --> 01:11:48,500
Stop at Sox Park, they've got tickets for this coming season.

1034
01:11:48,500 --> 01:11:50,500
Down ball, third baseman,

1035
01:11:50,500 --> 01:11:55,500
takes the easy toss over to Andrews at second for the force play on Saddle to retire to Sox Park.

1036
01:11:55,500 --> 01:11:57,500
In the sixth.

1037
01:11:57,500 --> 01:11:59,500
No runs, one hit, no hitters.

1038
01:11:59,500 --> 01:12:01,500
One man at front base.

1039
01:12:01,500 --> 01:12:03,500
He had a six inning, Chicago White Sox.

1040
01:12:03,500 --> 01:12:05,500
Three, the Chicago Sox nothing.

1041
01:12:05,500 --> 01:12:07,500
Three, the Cubs nothing.

1042
01:12:11,500 --> 01:12:15,500
Holtz, this year's spring exhibition season is almost over.

1043
01:12:15,500 --> 01:12:18,500
We sure enjoyed having you out here this spring.

1044
01:12:18,500 --> 01:12:20,500
We hope to see you next year.

1045
01:12:20,500 --> 01:12:24,500
Today's payday attendance, 4,158.

1046
01:12:24,500 --> 01:12:26,500
Thank you very much.

1047
01:12:26,500 --> 01:12:28,500
4,158.

1048
01:12:28,500 --> 01:12:30,500
That's even bigger than yesterday.

1049
01:12:30,500 --> 01:12:32,500
Doesn't look as big as yesterday.

1050
01:12:32,500 --> 01:12:36,500
Yeah, they seem to be almost about 3,205.

1051
01:12:36,500 --> 01:12:40,500
I think it's friendly and moves close.

1052
01:12:42,500 --> 01:12:44,500
Need a break?

1053
01:12:44,500 --> 01:12:54,500
I can't break it.

1054
01:13:10,500 --> 01:13:12,500
I don't know how you're going to get by.

1055
01:13:12,500 --> 01:13:14,500
Oh, really?

1056
01:13:14,500 --> 01:13:16,500
So proud of you.

1057
01:13:16,500 --> 01:13:18,500
Come back again with this.

1058
01:13:18,500 --> 01:13:20,500
Down to the seventh inning now, the White Sox.

1059
01:13:20,500 --> 01:13:22,500
We'll send up Rich McKinney.

1060
01:13:22,500 --> 01:13:24,500
Followed by Ed Herman.

1061
01:13:24,500 --> 01:13:32,500
And we will see if Portland will bat.

1062
01:13:32,500 --> 01:13:36,500
First batter number 26, Rich McKinney, right field.

1063
01:13:36,500 --> 01:13:40,500
Kenny Olsen, number 30 in the back of his uniform out of the round.

1064
01:13:40,500 --> 01:13:46,500
Scottsdale, Arizona.

1065
01:13:46,500 --> 01:13:50,500
All of our network stations will be looking for identification just a couple of moments.

1066
01:13:50,500 --> 01:13:52,500
Here comes the pitch.

1067
01:13:52,500 --> 01:14:04,500
A swing and a miss.

1068
01:14:04,500 --> 01:14:10,500
Some big days for the kids at White Sox Park.

1069
01:14:10,500 --> 01:14:14,500
When you're coming in, you want to reflect on the pitch.

1070
01:14:14,500 --> 01:14:18,500
When Kenny hits the ball well, he has climbed to left field, to center field,

1071
01:14:18,500 --> 01:14:20,500
and run into left field and right field, now him to left field.

1072
01:14:20,500 --> 01:14:24,500
The next batter number 12, Ed Herman, catch it.

1073
01:14:24,500 --> 01:14:26,500
Feature day is Sunday, May 9th.

1074
01:14:26,500 --> 01:14:28,500
Batting rough day is Sunday, May 30th.

1075
01:14:28,500 --> 01:14:30,500
Bat day is Sunday, June 6th.

1076
01:14:30,500 --> 01:14:32,500
Elm of day is Sunday, July 11th.

1077
01:14:32,500 --> 01:14:36,500
The young students will receive new White Sox colorful red batting helmets.

1078
01:14:36,500 --> 01:14:40,500
We talk about color, White Sox have it in their uniforms.

1079
01:14:40,500 --> 01:14:42,500
Outstanding.

1080
01:14:42,500 --> 01:14:44,500
Drop of the 7th inning, one away.

1081
01:14:44,500 --> 01:14:48,500
Batter Herman.

1082
01:14:48,500 --> 01:14:54,500
Herman has not had a strong spring with the bat.

1083
01:14:54,500 --> 01:14:56,500
Nobody is really worried about that.

1084
01:14:56,500 --> 01:15:02,500
He's pregnant with this, as he certainly is due to come around.

1085
01:15:02,500 --> 01:15:04,500
Olin, too, on the batter.

1086
01:15:04,500 --> 01:15:08,500
Walked and struck out in this ball game so far.

1087
01:15:08,500 --> 01:15:10,500
Olin due to bat next.

1088
01:15:10,500 --> 01:15:12,500
Lefty, Kenny Holston.

1089
01:15:12,500 --> 01:15:14,500
He's in the pitch.

1090
01:15:14,500 --> 01:15:16,500
He's caught up in the short center field.

1091
01:15:16,500 --> 01:15:18,500
Center field, Olin, catch it.

1092
01:15:18,500 --> 01:15:20,500
He's got it.

1093
01:15:20,500 --> 01:15:22,500
He's come a long way.

1094
01:15:22,500 --> 01:15:24,500
Beckard went out, Kessinger went out, and Ortiz made the play.

1095
01:15:24,500 --> 01:15:28,500
Two up and two down in the top of the 7th inning.

1096
01:15:28,500 --> 01:15:30,500
Now Joel Horland.

1097
01:15:30,500 --> 01:15:32,500
Talents pause.

1098
01:15:32,500 --> 01:15:34,500
Pause station identification.

1099
01:15:34,500 --> 01:15:36,500
On the bat of the point, Joel Horland.

1100
01:15:36,500 --> 01:15:38,500
That's it.

1101
01:15:38,500 --> 01:15:58,500
Olin on the first pitch swings and drives a...

1102
01:15:58,500 --> 01:16:00,500
Batter number 9, please.

1103
01:16:00,500 --> 01:16:02,500
This is shortstop.

1104
01:16:02,500 --> 01:16:08,500
Olin gets his number 1.

1105
01:16:08,500 --> 01:16:10,500
Kenny Holston brings up the top of the batting order now.

1106
01:16:10,500 --> 01:16:14,500
Levy-Richard.

1107
01:16:14,500 --> 01:16:18,500
Richard in the first and he tried to bump.

1108
01:16:18,500 --> 01:16:20,500
And popped it up to the pitcher.

1109
01:16:20,500 --> 01:16:22,500
Then he flied it.

1110
01:16:22,500 --> 01:16:24,500
There's a ground ball over the pitcher's head.

1111
01:16:24,500 --> 01:16:26,500
It is Olin.

1112
01:16:26,500 --> 01:16:32,500
He's got it.

1113
01:16:32,500 --> 01:16:34,500
Olin on the second base.

1114
01:16:34,500 --> 01:16:36,500
Ken Holton on the back as he went sliding back in.

1115
01:16:36,500 --> 01:16:38,500
He said he's okay.

1116
01:16:38,500 --> 01:16:42,500
Levy-Richard is on with a base hit.

1117
01:16:42,500 --> 01:16:48,500
And Holton, rounding second base, got halfway to third base and decided he better go back.

1118
01:16:48,500 --> 01:16:50,500
Two hits given by Ken Holston.

1119
01:16:50,500 --> 01:16:52,500
Hit number 6 for the front.

1120
01:16:52,500 --> 01:16:56,500
The white...

1121
01:16:56,500 --> 01:17:00,500
White's off with a cut-fit pitching.

1122
01:17:00,500 --> 01:17:04,500
For Alpha, we may have our first injury of the season here.

1123
01:17:04,500 --> 01:17:06,500
Joel Horland was hit.

1124
01:17:06,500 --> 01:17:08,500
And apparently hitting the leg.

1125
01:17:08,500 --> 01:17:12,500
Back of the leg as he's getting back in the second base.

1126
01:17:12,500 --> 01:17:14,500
A whole group.

1127
01:17:14,500 --> 01:17:16,500
Boy, he's in pain out there.

1128
01:17:16,500 --> 01:17:18,500
You know, the funny thing is, he got up right away.

1129
01:17:18,500 --> 01:17:20,500
Indicated that he was okay.

1130
01:17:20,500 --> 01:17:26,500
Charlie Saad, the trainer of the White Sox, is administering to him.

1131
01:17:26,500 --> 01:17:30,500
But he seems to be in quite a bit of pain.

1132
01:17:30,500 --> 01:17:34,500
And now, a little activity in the White Sox bullpen.

1133
01:17:34,500 --> 01:17:44,500
With the season opening Wednesday afternoon, it's a tough time to get hurt.

1134
01:17:44,500 --> 01:17:50,500
Right-hander Steve Keeley is throwing down the right side.

1135
01:17:50,500 --> 01:17:52,500
And the White Sox bullpen.

1136
01:17:52,500 --> 01:17:54,500
And out of the mound once again for the...

1137
01:17:54,500 --> 01:17:57,500
Still remember, Kenny Holston throwing the...

1138
01:17:57,500 --> 01:18:01,500
Ken Rudolph.

1139
01:18:01,500 --> 01:18:04,500
That big be richard, how are you going to keep him out of the lineup?

1140
01:18:04,500 --> 01:18:05,500
Harry, it's almost impossible.

1141
01:18:05,500 --> 01:18:10,500
And of course, when the coach has to, the problem that Chuck Tanner has with two flying shortstop,

1142
01:18:10,500 --> 01:18:12,500
he's not going to worry too much.

1143
01:18:12,500 --> 01:18:19,500
The big problem is where he plays Richard against certain pitchers over the El Dorado.

1144
01:18:19,500 --> 01:18:21,500
It's a big problem to have.

1145
01:18:21,500 --> 01:18:24,500
I would imagine with opening up with a double header,

1146
01:18:24,500 --> 01:18:28,500
I would be a bit surprised to see El Dorado start the first game at charge stop,

1147
01:18:28,500 --> 01:18:31,500
and maybe Richard start the second game.

1148
01:18:31,500 --> 01:18:35,500
Either way, I think that we've got a fine infield.

1149
01:18:35,500 --> 01:18:40,500
The White Sox, the way we've seen them now in the last couple of weeks, certainly,

1150
01:18:40,500 --> 01:18:42,500
they're going to start the regular season with a strong roll,

1151
01:18:42,500 --> 01:18:44,500
but there's no doubt about it.

1152
01:18:44,500 --> 01:18:46,500
The more we urge people to get their season tickets,

1153
01:18:46,500 --> 01:18:48,500
the more we're serious about that.

1154
01:18:48,500 --> 01:18:56,500
Get out to Sox Park and get those tickets as soon as possible.

1155
01:18:56,500 --> 01:19:02,500
Well, there's one of our big four in that pitching department, Joe Horlitt.

1156
01:19:02,500 --> 01:19:04,500
From up here, it looked like he was hitting the back,

1157
01:19:04,500 --> 01:19:09,500
but he was going into his side, going back into second base.

1158
01:19:09,500 --> 01:19:11,500
That's what we tell.

1159
01:19:18,500 --> 01:19:22,500
Opening day, White Sox Park, Friday, the 9th.

1160
01:19:22,500 --> 01:19:27,500
Of course, it's the Sox against the powerful Minnesota Twins.

1161
01:19:27,500 --> 01:19:29,500
They'll get good tickets.

1162
01:19:29,500 --> 01:19:33,500
Oh, man, he's hurt. He's hurt.

1163
01:19:33,500 --> 01:19:37,500
You know, it could have been that he may have been hit in the back

1164
01:19:37,500 --> 01:19:41,500
or he was sliding back, but he may have hurt his leg while sliding.

1165
01:19:58,500 --> 01:20:01,500
He and Keely have been warming up for the White Sox.

1166
01:20:01,500 --> 01:20:03,500
I hope it's not serious.

1167
01:20:03,500 --> 01:20:06,500
This guy's certainly got it on him.

1168
01:20:06,500 --> 01:20:08,500
Big things this year.

1169
01:20:13,500 --> 01:20:16,500
Boy, I bet he's saying to himself now,

1170
01:20:16,500 --> 01:20:19,500
why didn't I just stop at second base?

1171
01:20:19,500 --> 01:20:21,500
Where did I think I was going?

1172
01:20:21,500 --> 01:20:24,500
It would be easy to second-guess yourself.

1173
01:20:24,500 --> 01:20:26,500
He had rounded second as if to try for third

1174
01:20:26,500 --> 01:20:29,500
and realized that Ortiz's thrill would get him easily,

1175
01:20:29,500 --> 01:20:32,500
so then came to a sudden stop and retraced,

1176
01:20:32,500 --> 01:20:34,500
went back to second base when Sampdall...

1177
01:20:34,500 --> 01:20:36,500
...for Joe Horland.

1178
01:20:36,500 --> 01:20:38,500
Never enough.

1179
01:20:38,500 --> 01:20:41,500
Chuck Brinkman is trying to run for Horland.

1180
01:20:43,500 --> 01:20:45,500
Brinkman is running for Horland.

1181
01:20:49,500 --> 01:20:51,500
We're in the top of the seventh inning.

1182
01:20:51,500 --> 01:20:54,500
The White Sox lead the ballgame 3-0.

1183
01:20:55,500 --> 01:20:59,500
Right about now, with Horland being carried off on the stretcher,

1184
01:20:59,500 --> 01:21:02,500
I would imagine Vicente Romo has moved in to be a starter

1185
01:21:02,500 --> 01:21:04,500
rather than a relief pitcher.

1186
01:21:06,500 --> 01:21:08,500
All right, we're all set to go.

1187
01:21:08,500 --> 01:21:11,500
Walt Williams, the batter, swings, and hits a fly ball out of play

1188
01:21:11,500 --> 01:21:13,500
down the right field side in the stands.

1189
01:21:13,500 --> 01:21:15,500
Walt Williams...

1190
01:21:16,500 --> 01:21:18,500
...the only one that counted.

1191
01:21:18,500 --> 01:21:21,500
Runners of first and second two away here in the top of the seventh.

1192
01:21:21,500 --> 01:21:25,500
Ken Holston, second cup pitcher of the ballgame.

1193
01:21:25,500 --> 01:21:30,500
Bill Pappas went for innings, he looked three runs, four hits.

1194
01:21:30,500 --> 01:21:33,500
Walk one, step out, one.

1195
01:21:38,500 --> 01:21:41,500
Ball one, strike one, they count on.

1196
01:21:41,500 --> 01:21:45,500
Wally Williams, a very, very popular guy in spring training,

1197
01:21:45,500 --> 01:21:47,500
and of course in Chicago.

1198
01:21:47,500 --> 01:21:49,500
Next pitch from Kenny is...

1199
01:21:49,500 --> 01:21:55,500
...a foul out of play back over on his.

1200
01:22:01,500 --> 01:22:04,500
Williams has been one of the hitting stars for the White Sox

1201
01:22:04,500 --> 01:22:06,500
with a winning 3-51 coming into this ballgame.

1202
01:22:06,500 --> 01:22:09,500
He must play the quarter-run game.

1203
01:22:09,500 --> 01:22:11,500
He's back.

1204
01:22:13,500 --> 01:22:15,500
I believe this...

1205
01:22:15,500 --> 01:22:19,500
...many a graph sheet there's 71 times.

1206
01:22:19,500 --> 01:22:21,500
26 base hits.

1207
01:22:24,500 --> 01:22:28,500
...the right side, and a two-nil for an eight hit.

1208
01:22:28,500 --> 01:22:30,500
Right field at Towson, but it's thanks to the foul line again.

1209
01:22:30,500 --> 01:22:33,500
Throw back in, Williams is on second to the double,

1210
01:22:33,500 --> 01:22:35,500
and the run comes in to score.

1211
01:22:35,500 --> 01:22:38,500
Two runs to the score, second to the one run score.

1212
01:22:38,500 --> 01:22:42,500
So Williams is on second base to the double, and the ball is gone.

1213
01:22:42,500 --> 01:22:44,500
Run number four hits for...

1214
01:22:44,500 --> 01:22:48,500
...the batter is number two, Mike Hadroos, second base.

1215
01:22:48,500 --> 01:22:50,500
...second and third.

1216
01:22:50,500 --> 01:22:53,500
...he's got the third base, he rounded him.

1217
01:22:53,500 --> 01:22:56,500
The two came back in third, 10 space.

1218
01:22:56,500 --> 01:22:58,500
By that time, he didn't hit the second.

1219
01:22:58,500 --> 01:23:00,500
Run and it's gone.

1220
01:23:00,500 --> 01:23:04,500
Hadroos has been about three times

1221
01:23:04,500 --> 01:23:08,500
without a base hit.

1222
01:23:08,500 --> 01:23:11,500
Popped out to the second baseman, fly to center,

1223
01:23:11,500 --> 01:23:13,500
rounded it short.

1224
01:23:13,500 --> 01:23:15,500
Here comes the pitch.

1225
01:23:15,500 --> 01:23:18,500
A beautiful third ball between their first strikes.

1226
01:23:18,500 --> 01:23:20,500
One...

1227
01:23:20,500 --> 01:23:22,500
Melty's due to bat next.

1228
01:23:28,500 --> 01:23:30,500
Drop of the seventh inning.

1229
01:23:30,500 --> 01:23:34,500
Now they're going sharply down the third base line, but it's full power.

1230
01:23:34,500 --> 01:23:38,500
Of course, the folks on the third base side and the left field side

1231
01:23:38,500 --> 01:23:41,500
thought the two might fall and land it.

1232
01:23:41,500 --> 01:23:43,500
Might have been a fair ball.

1233
01:23:45,500 --> 01:23:47,500
Mike Hadroos.

1234
01:23:49,500 --> 01:23:52,500
Holton's out of the mound, looks like he's getting a move on.

1235
01:23:52,500 --> 01:23:54,500
Hubs are up.

1236
01:23:54,500 --> 01:23:57,500
After win number 20

1237
01:23:57,500 --> 01:23:59,500
of the spring season, to wind it up.

1238
01:23:59,500 --> 01:24:02,500
Sox are looking for number 20 as of the moment.

1239
01:24:02,500 --> 01:24:05,500
Four helping, White Sox, after seven.

1240
01:24:06,500 --> 01:24:08,500
Ball one, strike two on the bat.

1241
01:24:08,500 --> 01:24:10,500
Mike Hadroos.

1242
01:24:10,500 --> 01:24:13,500
Takes the ball right inside.

1243
01:24:13,500 --> 01:24:16,500
Even up to two and two.

1244
01:24:16,500 --> 01:24:18,500
Two away.

1245
01:24:18,500 --> 01:24:21,500
We have runners at second and third.

1246
01:24:24,500 --> 01:24:25,500
Williams on second.

1247
01:24:25,500 --> 01:24:29,500
D.E. Richard at third base.

1248
01:24:29,500 --> 01:24:32,500
Brinkman running for ball in the score.

1249
01:24:32,500 --> 01:24:34,500
Here's the miss on the outside corner.

1250
01:24:34,500 --> 01:24:37,500
It's filled up at three and two.

1251
01:24:39,500 --> 01:24:43,500
3.15 is broadcast time for that double header from Oakland.

1252
01:24:43,500 --> 01:24:46,500
Opening the 1971 season for the White Sox.

1253
01:24:46,500 --> 01:24:49,500
They'll be at home on Friday.

1254
01:24:49,500 --> 01:24:52,500
For the home opener against the Minnesota Twins.

1255
01:24:52,500 --> 01:24:56,500
Ralph, there's a lot of division of opinion as to what happened to Harlan.

1256
01:24:56,500 --> 01:25:03,500
It wasn't the throw, I think it's sliding back into the bag that he jammed his ankle or knee.

1257
01:25:03,500 --> 01:25:06,500
Three, two, pitch.

1258
01:25:16,500 --> 01:25:18,500
He's all about the left field line.

1259
01:25:18,500 --> 01:25:20,500
We'll have to get behind the set.

1260
01:25:20,500 --> 01:25:22,500
White Sox are out in front.

1261
01:25:22,500 --> 01:25:25,500
Over the dump by a score of four to nothing.

1262
01:25:26,500 --> 01:25:29,500
Oh, what a shame.

1263
01:25:29,500 --> 01:25:32,500
Any pitcher for the Chicago White Sox?

1264
01:25:32,500 --> 01:25:35,500
Number 23, Steve Steely.

1265
01:25:35,500 --> 01:25:38,500
Oh, no.

1266
01:25:38,500 --> 01:25:41,500
100 percent to me and three.

1267
01:25:41,500 --> 01:25:44,500
Yeah.

1268
01:25:44,500 --> 01:25:47,500
No, I'm trying it out.

1269
01:25:47,500 --> 01:25:50,500
Can we have your attention please?

1270
01:25:50,500 --> 01:25:52,500
It seems to happen every stretch.

1271
01:25:52,500 --> 01:25:53,500
What should I say?

1272
01:25:53,500 --> 01:25:56,500
There's a purple and white 9271 Cadillac convertible light.

1273
01:25:56,500 --> 01:25:58,500
It's 2314.

1274
01:25:58,500 --> 01:26:00,500
They're blocking a driveway.

1275
01:26:00,500 --> 01:26:02,500
Mark, it's too close to a water hydrant.

1276
01:26:02,500 --> 01:26:08,500
Your windshield wipers are on, your motor's running, your keys are in the ignition, and your doors are locked.

1277
01:26:13,500 --> 01:26:16,500
Will the ladies and those with cars please move in?

1278
01:26:19,500 --> 01:26:20,500
Look at him.

1279
01:26:20,500 --> 01:26:21,500
What's that?

1280
01:26:21,500 --> 01:26:25,500
Move that up that block and make that a black painting.

1281
01:26:25,500 --> 01:26:32,500
I won't have that out of you.

1282
01:26:32,500 --> 01:26:35,500
Ladies and gentlemen, please step to your places.

1283
01:26:35,500 --> 01:26:37,500
All right, about the...

1284
01:26:37,500 --> 01:26:39,500
I made it for my dad.

1285
01:26:39,500 --> 01:26:43,500
The doors are locked and the key is in the ignition.

1286
01:26:43,500 --> 01:26:47,500
Will the ladies and those with cars please move in?

1287
01:26:47,500 --> 01:26:55,500
Ladies and gentlemen, please step to your places.

1288
01:26:55,500 --> 01:27:19,500
The leadoff for the bottom of the seventh inning for the Cubs, Johnny Carlson.

1289
01:27:19,500 --> 01:27:26,500
Back to the pitcher Tom Bradley.

1290
01:27:26,500 --> 01:27:33,500
The batter is number 20, Oceania Orsi, center field.

1291
01:27:33,500 --> 01:27:49,500
The number one given up by Steve Peely and fifth, Chicago Cubs, Ainsley.

1292
01:27:49,500 --> 01:27:54,500
Leadoff double for Johnny Carlson, last half of the seventh inning, 4-0.

1293
01:27:54,500 --> 01:27:58,500
The white sides looking to win number 20 to wind up the screen training season.

1294
01:27:58,500 --> 01:28:04,500
As opposed to nine losses, fastball stretch.

1295
01:28:04,500 --> 01:28:12,500
The team is 0-2-2, five to center, ground is a short.

1296
01:28:12,500 --> 01:28:18,500
Peely, the third white side pitcher of the ballgame.

1297
01:28:18,500 --> 01:28:22,500
Let's see who this catcher, Ed Herman, right-handed batting Jose Ortiz.

1298
01:28:22,500 --> 01:28:25,500
Starts the swing on the pitch, holds up, it's low.

1299
01:28:25,500 --> 01:28:30,500
Ball one, strike one. Catcher Kenny Rudolph, two off-mack.

1300
01:28:30,500 --> 01:28:38,500
Last half of the seventh inning from Scottsdale, Arizona where the weather is absolutely perfect.

1301
01:28:38,500 --> 01:28:44,500
Those mountains here look like they're three blocks away and they're probably 20 miles.

1302
01:28:44,500 --> 01:28:51,500
Ground ball, to the short stop, Richard Wage picks it up, throws, holds that woman second base beautifully.

1303
01:28:51,500 --> 01:28:54,500
Ortiz is off-needle watch.

1304
01:28:54,500 --> 01:28:57,500
Number 15, Ken Rudolph.

1305
01:28:57,500 --> 01:29:00,500
As Harry mentioned, the more we see keeping Richard at short.

1306
01:29:00,500 --> 01:29:03,500
The more we like him, the luckier he is.

1307
01:29:03,500 --> 01:29:07,500
We've been seeing that about all of our side players at the screen and that's exactly how we feel.

1308
01:29:07,500 --> 01:29:09,500
An exciting ball call.

1309
01:29:09,500 --> 01:29:14,500
Ken Rudolph.

1310
01:29:14,500 --> 01:29:18,500
Declan Taylor, he's really following Rudolph.

1311
01:29:18,500 --> 01:29:25,500
On scoring position on second base, it comes to pitch and the swing is far off the right side out of play.

1312
01:29:25,500 --> 01:29:29,500
Rudolph doubled in the second.

1313
01:29:29,500 --> 01:29:34,500
It's thrown out by Richard in the fifth inning.

1314
01:29:34,500 --> 01:29:36,500
We're in the bottom of the seventh inning.

1315
01:29:36,500 --> 01:29:42,500
From Scottsdale Stadium, there's a jam-packed house of 4,158.

1316
01:29:42,500 --> 01:29:47,500
The place holds 35, so you can imagine how many people are squeezed in today.

1317
01:29:47,500 --> 01:29:50,500
They don't mind it at all.

1318
01:29:50,500 --> 01:29:55,500
It's better to put these people out, either Chicagoans out here on a vacation

1319
01:29:55,500 --> 01:30:00,500
or Chicagoans previously in our living here in this beautiful area.

1320
01:30:00,500 --> 01:30:02,500
Good luck today.

1321
01:30:02,500 --> 01:30:03,500
Here comes the pitch.

1322
01:30:03,500 --> 01:30:24,500
Oh boy, what a play.

1323
01:30:24,500 --> 01:30:26,500
Boy, oh boy, Ralph, what a play.

1324
01:30:26,500 --> 01:30:30,500
Ed Herman made one of the greatest plays I've ever seen at Catcher Make.

1325
01:30:30,500 --> 01:30:33,500
Walt Williams charging that base hit, took it on one bounce,

1326
01:30:33,500 --> 01:30:37,500
and then fired all the way to home plate on the fly, and the throw was high.

1327
01:30:37,500 --> 01:30:41,500
Ed Herman had a leap high into the air and caught the ball with one hand.

1328
01:30:41,500 --> 01:30:42,500
Look at his glove.

1329
01:30:42,500 --> 01:30:51,500
And all in the same motion on coming down, he flapped that glove on to the sliding spikes of Johnny Callison for the out.

1330
01:30:51,500 --> 01:30:52,500
Boy, what a play.

1331
01:30:52,500 --> 01:30:57,500
Another example of what we're going to see here at Sauk Park.

1332
01:30:57,500 --> 01:31:02,500
When Williams came in on that ball, the bounce in front of him, he grabbed it,

1333
01:31:02,500 --> 01:31:07,500
and his throw was just a little high to Herman, but from a distance, of course,

1334
01:31:07,500 --> 01:31:10,500
it turned out to be a spectacular play.

1335
01:31:10,500 --> 01:31:12,500
Herman went up into the air as a very steady.

1336
01:31:12,500 --> 01:31:19,500
He held onto it, and as he came down, Callison had to slide on the infield side of home plate,

1337
01:31:19,500 --> 01:31:23,500
and Herman came down and made the drive and went home plate.

1338
01:31:23,500 --> 01:31:28,500
That's how he was out.

1339
01:31:28,500 --> 01:31:32,500
All in one, they count.

1340
01:31:32,500 --> 01:31:36,500
Rudolph on second base.

1341
01:31:36,500 --> 01:31:42,500
Two hits here in the inning, and they're two away.

1342
01:31:42,500 --> 01:31:44,500
It's not forever.

1343
01:31:44,500 --> 01:31:46,500
Roland.

1344
01:31:46,500 --> 01:31:51,500
Hey, Roland.

1345
01:31:51,500 --> 01:31:57,500
Steve Keely on the bounce, the third start pitcher of the ballgame, Bradley Starry,

1346
01:31:57,500 --> 01:31:59,500
wins five for the inning.

1347
01:31:59,500 --> 01:32:04,500
He has now pitched 33 innings in the drive.

1348
01:32:04,500 --> 01:32:07,500
And he's out.

1349
01:32:07,500 --> 01:32:10,500
And he's out.

1350
01:32:10,500 --> 01:32:12,500
And he's out.

1351
01:32:12,500 --> 01:32:14,500
And he's out.

1352
01:32:14,500 --> 01:32:16,500
And he's out.

1353
01:32:16,500 --> 01:32:24,500
He pitched 33 innings in the drive.

1354
01:32:24,500 --> 01:32:32,880
Oh my God, and we all can't believe that he played for the

1355
01:32:32,880 --> 01:32:34,500
score.

1356
01:32:34,500 --> 01:32:38,080
He's the fifth wish of the fourth set of games.

1357
01:32:38,080 --> 01:32:40,080
a seven score in the game.

1358
01:32:44,080 --> 01:32:46,080
That brings us over to the top of the batting

1359
01:32:46,080 --> 01:32:48,080
where the fans catching you.

1360
01:32:48,080 --> 01:32:50,080
Well the Cubs fans here in

1361
01:32:50,080 --> 01:32:52,080
Johnson, Minnesota

1362
01:32:52,080 --> 01:32:54,080
are waiting home for the Chicago Cubs

1363
01:32:54,080 --> 01:32:56,080
they want to see the Cubs get that thing started

1364
01:32:56,080 --> 01:32:57,080
to wind up their

1365
01:32:57,080 --> 01:32:59,080
pin-playing season now

1366
01:32:59,080 --> 01:33:00,080
with a victory.

1367
01:33:00,080 --> 01:33:02,080
That's a particular moment the lifeguards have

1368
01:33:02,080 --> 01:33:04,080
something to say about that. They lead 4-1

1369
01:33:04,080 --> 01:33:06,080
first victory campaign year.

1370
01:33:06,080 --> 01:33:08,080
Ralph I just saw Roland Heeman

1371
01:33:08,080 --> 01:33:10,080
come over to talk to John Holland

1372
01:33:10,080 --> 01:33:12,080
the general manager of the Cubs.

1373
01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:14,080
Now the Cubs are going home right after the game

1374
01:33:14,080 --> 01:33:16,080
in Chicago and I would imagine that maybe

1375
01:33:16,080 --> 01:33:18,080
he was discussing with John the possibilities

1376
01:33:18,080 --> 01:33:20,080
of Holland accompanying the Cubs

1377
01:33:20,080 --> 01:33:22,080
and flying right into Chicago

1378
01:33:22,080 --> 01:33:24,080
tonight to get medical attention there.

1379
01:33:26,080 --> 01:33:28,080
Well we said it before we'll say it again

1380
01:33:28,080 --> 01:33:30,080
let's pray that it's not

1381
01:33:30,080 --> 01:33:32,080
anything serious.

1382
01:33:32,080 --> 01:33:34,080
The Cubs are back.

1383
01:33:34,080 --> 01:33:36,080
Kessinger the batter

1384
01:33:36,080 --> 01:33:38,080
on her first base one run in

1385
01:33:38,080 --> 01:33:40,080
last to the seventh.

1386
01:33:40,080 --> 01:33:42,080
The Cubs are back the stock leads 4-1.

1387
01:33:42,080 --> 01:33:44,080
Steve Peely

1388
01:33:44,080 --> 01:33:46,080
on the mound the pick.

1389
01:33:46,080 --> 01:33:48,080
So now the ball up here Williams

1390
01:33:48,080 --> 01:33:50,080
goes to his left a couple of steps

1391
01:33:50,080 --> 01:33:52,080
on Goodlock he's got it.

1392
01:33:52,080 --> 01:33:54,080
The retire the stock.

1393
01:33:54,080 --> 01:33:56,080
Well in the last half of the seventh

1394
01:33:56,080 --> 01:33:58,080
inning for the Cubs one run

1395
01:33:58,080 --> 01:34:00,080
the end of the seventh inning the Chicago White Sox

1396
01:34:00,080 --> 01:34:02,080
get four, one, one.

1397
01:34:30,080 --> 01:34:32,080
Look at this brother.

1398
01:34:32,080 --> 01:34:34,080
That's the other side.

1399
01:34:34,080 --> 01:34:36,080
Watch your down there.

1400
01:34:40,080 --> 01:34:42,080
Boy that's a shame.

1401
01:34:42,080 --> 01:34:44,080
Boy they really need him too.

1402
01:34:44,080 --> 01:34:46,080
Okay what do you think?

1403
01:34:50,080 --> 01:34:52,080
That's the big one.

1404
01:34:52,080 --> 01:34:54,080
That's the big one.

1405
01:34:54,080 --> 01:34:56,080
That's the big one.

1406
01:34:56,080 --> 01:34:58,080
That's the big one.

1407
01:34:58,080 --> 01:35:00,080
That's the big one.

1408
01:35:08,080 --> 01:35:10,080
The next batter number 14 Bill Melton

1409
01:35:10,080 --> 01:35:12,080
third base.

1410
01:35:14,080 --> 01:35:16,080
We're going to the top of the eighth inning

1411
01:35:16,080 --> 01:35:18,080
the White Sox are out in front 4-1.

1412
01:35:18,080 --> 01:35:20,080
Bill Melton will lead it off he's had a double

1413
01:35:20,080 --> 01:35:22,080
in the homer and bounced down two out of three.

1414
01:35:22,080 --> 01:35:24,080
Had three hits yesterday.

1415
01:35:24,080 --> 01:35:26,080
He's had himself quite a spring.

1416
01:35:26,080 --> 01:35:28,080
Veteran left hander the Chicago Cubs

1417
01:35:28,080 --> 01:35:30,080
a youthful veteran by the way here's the pitch.

1418
01:35:30,080 --> 01:35:32,080
First pitch in there a good curveball

1419
01:35:32,080 --> 01:35:34,080
a strike is called.

1420
01:35:34,080 --> 01:35:36,080
One strike and no ball.

1421
01:35:36,080 --> 01:35:38,080
Boy the first bad thing that's happened

1422
01:35:38,080 --> 01:35:40,080
all spring long just occurred

1423
01:35:40,080 --> 01:35:42,080
a few minutes ago.

1424
01:35:42,080 --> 01:35:44,080
Here's the pitch curveball outside.

1425
01:35:44,080 --> 01:35:46,080
Don what is it here?

1426
01:35:46,080 --> 01:35:48,080
Harry Joe covered damage to his left knee

1427
01:35:48,080 --> 01:35:50,080
and it may be a cartilage injury.

1428
01:35:50,080 --> 01:35:52,080
We're taking him over to the hospital here

1429
01:35:52,080 --> 01:35:54,080
for x-rays and

1430
01:35:54,080 --> 01:35:56,080
if the x-rays show anything serious

1431
01:35:56,080 --> 01:35:58,080
he's going to go back tonight

1432
01:35:58,080 --> 01:36:00,080
on the plane to Chicago.

1433
01:36:00,080 --> 01:36:02,080
So it looks like

1434
01:36:02,080 --> 01:36:04,080
he won't be going with us to

1435
01:36:04,080 --> 01:36:06,080
Oakland. The Cub doctor Dr.

1436
01:36:06,080 --> 01:36:08,080
Zucker looked at him and is going over

1437
01:36:08,080 --> 01:36:10,080
to the hospital with him and we're going to take

1438
01:36:10,080 --> 01:36:12,080
x-rays there. The doctor feels he'll be negative

1439
01:36:12,080 --> 01:36:14,080
but he wants to make sure.

1440
01:36:14,080 --> 01:36:16,080
He's had a cartilage injury

1441
01:36:16,080 --> 01:36:18,080
last year didn't he? Yes but that was in the

1442
01:36:18,080 --> 01:36:20,080
other knee. This is in the left knee

1443
01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:22,080
he had a knee operation last August

1444
01:36:22,080 --> 01:36:24,080
on his right knee but this is the other knee

1445
01:36:24,080 --> 01:36:26,080
and he twisted it when he slipped back into second base.

1446
01:36:26,080 --> 01:36:28,080
I see. Thank you very much Don.

1447
01:36:28,080 --> 01:36:30,080
Don, I'm giving you the report

1448
01:36:30,080 --> 01:36:32,080
on the Joe Harlan thing. Meanwhile

1449
01:36:32,080 --> 01:36:34,080
Bill Melton has had his third hit of the day

1450
01:36:34,080 --> 01:36:36,080
single left. Carlos May

1451
01:36:36,080 --> 01:36:38,080
miles off the first pitch.

1452
01:36:38,080 --> 01:36:40,080
One strike and no balls.

1453
01:36:40,080 --> 01:36:42,080
So Joe Harlan

1454
01:36:42,080 --> 01:36:44,080
sliding back into the bag

1455
01:36:44,080 --> 01:36:46,080
and the injury did not come from being hit by the

1456
01:36:46,080 --> 01:36:48,080
throw. It came in sliding

1457
01:36:48,080 --> 01:36:50,080
back into the bag.

1458
01:36:50,080 --> 01:36:52,080
He twisted his left knee.

1459
01:36:52,080 --> 01:36:54,080
Here's the pitch to Carlos May

1460
01:36:54,080 --> 01:36:56,080
curveball low.

1461
01:36:58,080 --> 01:37:00,080
He will not be with the White Sox as Don

1462
01:37:00,080 --> 01:37:02,080
and Perth just told us in Oakland

1463
01:37:02,080 --> 01:37:04,080
at all. And

1464
01:37:04,080 --> 01:37:06,080
my surmise about Roland

1465
01:37:06,080 --> 01:37:08,080
Heeman talking to John Harlan that's

1466
01:37:08,080 --> 01:37:10,080
apparently what it was all about. Here's the pitch

1467
01:37:10,080 --> 01:37:12,080
swung on high fly ball shorts on the field.

1468
01:37:12,080 --> 01:37:14,080
Ortiz coming in. His cap

1469
01:37:14,080 --> 01:37:16,080
falls off but he makes the cap.

1470
01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:18,080
Carlos May flies

1471
01:37:18,080 --> 01:37:20,080
to Ortiz. Joe Harlan

1472
01:37:20,080 --> 01:37:22,080
was out. Watch your last

1473
01:37:22,080 --> 01:37:24,080
back in the hall with

1474
01:37:24,080 --> 01:37:26,080
a knee injury.

1475
01:37:28,080 --> 01:37:30,080
He had to undergo surgery on his right knee

1476
01:37:30,080 --> 01:37:32,080
on August the 4th for removal of torn

1477
01:37:32,080 --> 01:37:34,080
cartilage. He made a remarkably

1478
01:37:34,080 --> 01:37:36,080
speedy recovery and was back in action on

1479
01:37:36,080 --> 01:37:38,080
September the 7th. Just about

1480
01:37:38,080 --> 01:37:40,080
a month later. So

1481
01:37:40,080 --> 01:37:42,080
we'll have to wait

1482
01:37:42,080 --> 01:37:44,080
and see how badly his other knee has

1483
01:37:44,080 --> 01:37:46,080
been hurt today. Here's Rykert the curveball

1484
01:37:46,080 --> 01:37:48,080
low.

1485
01:37:48,080 --> 01:37:50,080
One ball and no strikes. Rick has had a double

1486
01:37:50,080 --> 01:37:52,080
one out of three. Ball game in the

1487
01:37:52,080 --> 01:37:54,080
top of the eighth. Four to one and save with the Cubs

1488
01:37:54,080 --> 01:37:56,080
and save with the Whiteside.

1489
01:37:56,080 --> 01:37:58,080
Here's Holtzman with the Cubs

1490
01:37:58,080 --> 01:38:00,080
firing. Swung to the fastball

1491
01:38:00,080 --> 01:38:02,080
and he missed it. That evens it up to the ball

1492
01:38:02,080 --> 01:38:04,080
on the stretch. The White Sox

1493
01:38:06,080 --> 01:38:08,080
scored two in the second on a

1494
01:38:08,080 --> 01:38:10,080
double by Melton, a triple by May and a double

1495
01:38:10,080 --> 01:38:12,080
by Rykert. Got another

1496
01:38:12,080 --> 01:38:14,080
one on the third on a home run by Melton.

1497
01:38:14,080 --> 01:38:16,080
Picked up one on the fourth with two out on a

1498
01:38:16,080 --> 01:38:18,080
single by Harlan. And then

1499
01:38:18,080 --> 01:38:20,080
back to back singles by B.B.

1500
01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:22,080
Richard and Walt Williams.

1501
01:38:22,080 --> 01:38:24,080
Now Melton has opened again

1502
01:38:24,080 --> 01:38:26,080
with a base hit. One out. Rick

1503
01:38:26,080 --> 01:38:28,080
Rykert the batter. Two balls and a strike.

1504
01:38:28,080 --> 01:38:30,080
Here's the stretch by Holtzman.

1505
01:38:30,080 --> 01:38:32,080
The pitch on the way. Swung on.

1506
01:38:32,080 --> 01:38:34,080
Drive into the right field corner but stays

1507
01:38:34,080 --> 01:38:36,080
there. It'll be trouble. It is.

1508
01:38:36,080 --> 01:38:38,080
Ball ball by about a foot and a half.

1509
01:38:38,080 --> 01:38:40,080
Rykert going to the

1510
01:38:40,080 --> 01:38:42,080
opposite field. Bows it

1511
01:38:42,080 --> 01:38:44,080
off.

1512
01:38:44,080 --> 01:38:46,080
That evens the count of two balls, two strikes.

1513
01:38:46,080 --> 01:38:48,080
Four thousand one

1514
01:38:48,080 --> 01:38:50,080
hundred and fifty-eight paid here today.

1515
01:38:50,080 --> 01:38:52,080
They only seed around thirty-two

1516
01:38:52,080 --> 01:38:54,080
hundred.

1517
01:38:58,080 --> 01:39:00,080
Rick Rykert returning to

1518
01:39:00,080 --> 01:39:02,080
the plate.

1519
01:39:02,080 --> 01:39:04,080
All set to go now.

1520
01:39:04,080 --> 01:39:06,080
Two balls, two strikes.

1521
01:39:08,080 --> 01:39:10,080
Runner at first base one out.

1522
01:39:10,080 --> 01:39:12,080
Four to one and save on the white side.

1523
01:39:12,080 --> 01:39:14,080
Holtzman is ready.

1524
01:39:14,080 --> 01:39:16,080
Now the pitch.

1525
01:39:16,080 --> 01:39:18,080
Here it is. Curve ball.

1526
01:39:18,080 --> 01:39:20,080
He's struck him out swinging.

1527
01:39:20,080 --> 01:39:22,080
Holtzman really snapped

1528
01:39:22,080 --> 01:39:24,080
one off.

1529
01:39:24,080 --> 01:39:26,080
That's two away.

1530
01:39:26,080 --> 01:39:28,080
Rich McKinney the right

1531
01:39:28,080 --> 01:39:30,080
fielder comes out.

1532
01:39:34,080 --> 01:39:36,080
Right hand batter waiting.

1533
01:39:36,080 --> 01:39:38,080
Rich McKinney. He's nothing out of

1534
01:39:38,080 --> 01:39:40,080
the game today.

1535
01:39:40,080 --> 01:39:42,080
Flied out every time. The pitch.

1536
01:39:42,080 --> 01:39:44,080
Curvin, a beauty, a strike call. Holtzman very

1537
01:39:44,080 --> 01:39:46,080
sharp.

1538
01:39:46,080 --> 01:39:48,080
Milt Pappas the last three of the runs. Holtzman the other one.

1539
01:39:48,080 --> 01:39:50,080
Holtzman relieved in the fifth inning.

1540
01:39:50,080 --> 01:39:52,080
So this is

1541
01:39:52,080 --> 01:39:54,080
his fourth inning of work. The pitch.

1542
01:39:54,080 --> 01:39:56,080
Bounces in front of the plate. A good

1543
01:39:56,080 --> 01:39:58,080
stop by Rudolph.

1544
01:40:00,080 --> 01:40:02,080
And the count evens up. A ball and a strike.

1545
01:40:02,080 --> 01:40:04,080
Two men around. Eighth inning.

1546
01:40:04,080 --> 01:40:06,080
Overflow crowd on hand.

1547
01:40:08,080 --> 01:40:10,080
Now the pitch. Here it is.

1548
01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:12,080
Swung on and popped up on the

1549
01:40:12,080 --> 01:40:14,080
infield. Kessinger backing out

1550
01:40:14,080 --> 01:40:16,080
under the grass shading his eyes.

1551
01:40:16,080 --> 01:40:18,080
Makes the catch.

1552
01:40:18,080 --> 01:40:20,080
To his father's side.

1553
01:40:20,080 --> 01:40:22,080
One left. We move down to the

1554
01:40:22,080 --> 01:40:24,080
bottom of the eighth. White Sox

1555
01:40:24,080 --> 01:40:26,080
four. Cubs one.

1556
01:40:30,080 --> 01:40:32,080
Boy that's a shame. Yeah.

1557
01:40:32,080 --> 01:40:34,080
Very deep here too.

1558
01:40:38,080 --> 01:40:40,080
There's the one

1559
01:40:40,080 --> 01:41:02,080
we talked about.

1560
01:41:02,080 --> 01:41:04,080
Boy I'm not too high on this

1561
01:41:04,080 --> 01:41:06,080
keeling.

1562
01:41:06,080 --> 01:41:34,080
I'm not too high on this keeling.

1563
01:41:34,080 --> 01:41:36,080
What's false for identification. This is the

1564
01:41:36,080 --> 01:41:38,080
Chicago White Sox baseball network.

1565
01:41:50,080 --> 01:41:52,080
Harry Carrey back at Scottsdale

1566
01:41:52,080 --> 01:41:54,080
Stadium as we go into the bottom half of the eighth inning.

1567
01:41:54,080 --> 01:41:56,080
Steve Keighley came on

1568
01:41:56,080 --> 01:41:58,080
when Joe Haaland was hurt. And was

1569
01:41:58,080 --> 01:42:00,080
really hit hard at the summer inning.

1570
01:42:00,080 --> 01:42:02,080
And it

1571
01:42:02,080 --> 01:42:04,080
took a sensational play by catcher

1572
01:42:04,080 --> 01:42:06,080
Ed Herman. Cutting a runner off at the plate.

1573
01:42:06,080 --> 01:42:08,080
To keep the cubs from

1574
01:42:08,080 --> 01:42:10,080
really having a good inning.

1575
01:42:10,080 --> 01:42:12,080
As it is the score now

1576
01:42:12,080 --> 01:42:14,080
four to one and save it to the White Sox.

1577
01:42:14,080 --> 01:42:16,080
Here's Glenn Beckard who's one out of three so far.

1578
01:42:16,080 --> 01:42:18,080
Right handed hitter.

1579
01:42:18,080 --> 01:42:20,080
Steve Keighley who used to be with the Angels.

1580
01:42:20,080 --> 01:42:22,080
These spectacle right handed

1581
01:42:22,080 --> 01:42:24,080
delivers. Curveball under a beauty of

1582
01:42:24,080 --> 01:42:26,080
strike call. One strike to no ball.

1583
01:42:26,080 --> 01:42:28,080
Nobody on nobody out.

1584
01:42:28,080 --> 01:42:30,080
Joe Haaland was injured

1585
01:42:30,080 --> 01:42:32,080
sliding back in a second base.

1586
01:42:32,080 --> 01:42:34,080
Being taken to a hospital

1587
01:42:34,080 --> 01:42:36,080
for x-ray.

1588
01:42:36,080 --> 01:42:38,080
Out of line to delivery. Here it is.

1589
01:42:38,080 --> 01:42:40,080
Half ball a little bit low.

1590
01:42:40,080 --> 01:42:42,080
Funny thing Haaland got up.

1591
01:42:42,080 --> 01:42:44,080
And then his knee must have collapsed.

1592
01:42:46,080 --> 01:42:48,080
Caved in under him

1593
01:42:48,080 --> 01:42:50,080
and he fell to the ground.

1594
01:42:50,080 --> 01:42:52,080
Out of signal given. One ball

1595
01:42:52,080 --> 01:42:54,080
one strike. The pitch.

1596
01:42:54,080 --> 01:42:56,080
Beckard swings and there's a fly ball.

1597
01:42:56,080 --> 01:42:58,080
Short right field. Should be caught. McKinney

1598
01:42:58,080 --> 01:43:00,080
coming in. Down with the sunglasses.

1599
01:43:00,080 --> 01:43:02,080
Makes the catch.

1600
01:43:02,080 --> 01:43:04,080
Beckard flies to McKinney.

1601
01:43:04,080 --> 01:43:06,080
One out here is Billy Williams.

1602
01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:08,080
Walked in the first and he landed

1603
01:43:08,080 --> 01:43:10,080
in the third. Rolled out to

1604
01:43:10,080 --> 01:43:12,080
second and second.

1605
01:43:12,080 --> 01:43:14,080
One out. Nobody on. Ball game in the eighth.

1606
01:43:16,080 --> 01:43:18,080
Billy Williams taking in.

1607
01:43:18,080 --> 01:43:20,080
Steve Keighley.

1608
01:43:20,080 --> 01:43:22,080
Here's Roland

1609
01:43:22,080 --> 01:43:24,080
Heeman who should be given

1610
01:43:24,080 --> 01:43:26,080
should be able to give us an up to date report on

1611
01:43:26,080 --> 01:43:28,080
Haaland. Joe jammed his knee

1612
01:43:28,080 --> 01:43:30,080
sliding back into second base.

1613
01:43:30,080 --> 01:43:32,080
Had some soreness inside

1614
01:43:32,080 --> 01:43:34,080
the knee. Had difficulty

1615
01:43:34,080 --> 01:43:36,080
maneuvering the knee as well as he would like

1616
01:43:36,080 --> 01:43:38,080
naturally. Dr. Suker

1617
01:43:38,080 --> 01:43:40,080
the Cubs position.

1618
01:43:40,080 --> 01:43:42,080
Fortunately he was here in the ball park.

1619
01:43:42,080 --> 01:43:44,080
Gave Joe some attention

1620
01:43:44,080 --> 01:43:46,080
and recommended that we fly him back

1621
01:43:46,080 --> 01:43:48,080
to Chicago. So through the

1622
01:43:48,080 --> 01:43:50,080
courtesy of John Haaland and Chicago Cubs

1623
01:43:50,080 --> 01:43:52,080
Haaland will fly back to Chicago

1624
01:43:52,080 --> 01:43:54,080
this afternoon on their flight.

1625
01:43:54,080 --> 01:43:56,080
And then our Cubs position

1626
01:43:56,080 --> 01:43:58,080
Dr. Jerome Loftus will examine

1627
01:43:58,080 --> 01:44:00,080
him and hospitalized him immediately.

1628
01:44:00,080 --> 01:44:02,080
What is it first

1629
01:44:02,080 --> 01:44:04,080
for my eyes about the injury? Is it anything

1630
01:44:04,080 --> 01:44:06,080
you know

1631
01:44:06,080 --> 01:44:08,080
very serious? We hope it isn't

1632
01:44:08,080 --> 01:44:10,080
it's difficult to see immediately.

1633
01:44:12,080 --> 01:44:14,080
It's like a home run foul ball off the bat

1634
01:44:14,080 --> 01:44:16,080
of Billy Williams so don't get excited.

1635
01:44:18,080 --> 01:44:20,080
Dr. Suker simply

1636
01:44:20,080 --> 01:44:22,080
mentioned that he felt that tomorrow

1637
01:44:22,080 --> 01:44:24,080
naturally it would be great soreness and it was

1638
01:44:24,080 --> 01:44:26,080
severe enough that he felt that he should

1639
01:44:26,080 --> 01:44:28,080
get the immediate attention and

1640
01:44:28,080 --> 01:44:30,080
recommended he fly back to Chicago.

1641
01:44:30,080 --> 01:44:32,080
So we hope that

1642
01:44:32,080 --> 01:44:34,080
it's not as serious as we might

1643
01:44:34,080 --> 01:44:36,080
have feared initially. It is

1644
01:44:36,080 --> 01:44:38,080
not the knee that Joe

1645
01:44:38,080 --> 01:44:40,080
underwent our surgery for last year

1646
01:44:40,080 --> 01:44:42,080
so this may be a plus in that

1647
01:44:42,080 --> 01:44:44,080
regard because it's the knee which

1648
01:44:44,080 --> 01:44:46,080
he had suffered the operation last year

1649
01:44:46,080 --> 01:44:48,080
has been re-injured and I think we have more fear.

1650
01:44:48,080 --> 01:44:50,080
Roland thanks so much for coming up.

1651
01:44:50,080 --> 01:44:52,080
Roland Heeman

1652
01:44:52,080 --> 01:44:54,080
Director of Player Personnel for the White Sox

1653
01:44:54,080 --> 01:44:56,080
giving us the up to minute report on

1654
01:44:56,080 --> 01:44:58,080
the conditions Joe Horlick. Here's Billy Williams

1655
01:44:58,080 --> 01:45:00,080
up there now swings and he fouls the pitch back.

1656
01:45:00,080 --> 01:45:02,080
Funny thing I just

1657
01:45:02,080 --> 01:45:04,080
guessed at things when I saw Roland go over

1658
01:45:04,080 --> 01:45:06,080
to talk to John Holland I just

1659
01:45:06,080 --> 01:45:08,080
guessed that that might be what he was talking

1660
01:45:08,080 --> 01:45:10,080
to him about and of course as we had

1661
01:45:10,080 --> 01:45:12,080
mentioned the Cubs fly home right after the game

1662
01:45:12,080 --> 01:45:14,080
so this will be advantageous.

1663
01:45:14,080 --> 01:45:16,080
Joe will be back home in Chicago to get

1664
01:45:16,080 --> 01:45:18,080
proper care. Here's the wind

1665
01:45:18,080 --> 01:45:20,080
up and he's going to span the pitch.

1666
01:45:20,080 --> 01:45:22,080
Billy Williams fouls it back to the screen.

1667
01:45:22,080 --> 01:45:24,080
Well this spring training

1668
01:45:24,080 --> 01:45:26,080
was just absolutely too perfect not

1669
01:45:26,080 --> 01:45:28,080
to have something happen.

1670
01:45:28,080 --> 01:45:30,080
Everything has gone too smoothly and

1671
01:45:30,080 --> 01:45:32,080
we're sorry to say that it had to be stopped

1672
01:45:32,080 --> 01:45:34,080
that's picking a situation with an

1673
01:45:34,080 --> 01:45:36,080
accident like this.

1674
01:45:36,080 --> 01:45:38,080
Billy Williams waiting two strikes

1675
01:45:38,080 --> 01:45:40,080
and a ball. Steve Keely into the wind up.

1676
01:45:40,080 --> 01:45:42,080
Here's the pitch on the way.

1677
01:45:42,080 --> 01:45:44,080
Flat ball. He aimed for that outside corner and missed

1678
01:45:44,080 --> 01:45:46,080
with it and the count is evened up.

1679
01:45:46,080 --> 01:45:48,080
Two balls two strikes one out.

1680
01:45:48,080 --> 01:45:50,080
Bottom of the eighth. The White Sox hoping

1681
01:45:50,080 --> 01:45:52,080
to win the city championship in

1682
01:45:52,080 --> 01:45:54,080
this rubber game. They won the first game

1683
01:45:54,080 --> 01:45:56,080
nine to two lost yesterday nine to four

1684
01:45:56,080 --> 01:45:58,080
and are leading all the way today.

1685
01:45:58,080 --> 01:46:00,080
The score being four to one at the moment.

1686
01:46:00,080 --> 01:46:02,080
Two balls two strikes.

1687
01:46:02,080 --> 01:46:04,080
Billy Williams digging in. Here's the

1688
01:46:04,080 --> 01:46:06,080
pitch by Keely.

1689
01:46:06,080 --> 01:46:08,080
Smash foul out down the right field corner.

1690
01:46:08,080 --> 01:46:10,080
Boy this Williams

1691
01:46:10,080 --> 01:46:12,080
even his foul ball

1692
01:46:12,080 --> 01:46:14,080
for his part.

1693
01:46:14,080 --> 01:46:16,080
He just pops that ball.

1694
01:46:16,080 --> 01:46:18,080
Two balls two strikes.

1695
01:46:18,080 --> 01:46:20,080
Billy Williams digging in.

1696
01:46:20,080 --> 01:46:22,080
Down the side.

1697
01:46:22,080 --> 01:46:24,080
Keely getting ready.

1698
01:46:24,080 --> 01:46:26,080
Here's the pitch.

1699
01:46:26,080 --> 01:46:28,080
Ball three is

1700
01:46:28,080 --> 01:46:30,080
ball four rather high.

1701
01:46:30,080 --> 01:46:32,080
So Billy Williams draws the

1702
01:46:32,080 --> 01:46:34,080
base on ball.

1703
01:46:34,080 --> 01:46:36,080
Santos had a great spring.

1704
01:46:36,080 --> 01:46:38,080
Santos had a great spring.

1705
01:46:42,080 --> 01:46:44,080
That's only the second walk

1706
01:46:44,080 --> 01:46:46,080
this young man is giving up all strength.

1707
01:46:46,080 --> 01:46:48,080
He has good control.

1708
01:46:48,080 --> 01:46:50,080
He's around the plate all the time.

1709
01:46:50,080 --> 01:46:52,080
Back the entire White Sox pitching

1710
01:46:52,080 --> 01:46:54,080
staff has been able to

1711
01:46:54,080 --> 01:46:56,080
avoid that old

1712
01:46:56,080 --> 01:46:58,080
play based on ball.

1713
01:46:58,080 --> 01:47:00,080
Two center one out one

1714
01:47:00,080 --> 01:47:02,080
on. The stretch

1715
01:47:02,080 --> 01:47:04,080
from the belt to the pitch. Here it is.

1716
01:47:04,080 --> 01:47:06,080
It's a little bit inside.

1717
01:47:06,080 --> 01:47:08,080
Kenny Holtzman the pitcher will be up there next.

1718
01:47:10,080 --> 01:47:12,080
They start a

1719
01:47:12,080 --> 01:47:14,080
right hander warming up on the both end. The left

1720
01:47:14,080 --> 01:47:16,080
hander starts to limber up.

1721
01:47:16,080 --> 01:47:18,080
He's going to warm up too.

1722
01:47:18,080 --> 01:47:20,080
One on one out.

1723
01:47:20,080 --> 01:47:22,080
Right hander waiting.

1724
01:47:22,080 --> 01:47:24,080
Here's

1725
01:47:24,080 --> 01:47:26,080
Keely getting set.

1726
01:47:26,080 --> 01:47:28,080
The pitch on the way to Santos.

1727
01:47:28,080 --> 01:47:30,080
Curve ball is high.

1728
01:47:30,080 --> 01:47:32,080
Keely is struggling out there.

1729
01:47:32,080 --> 01:47:34,080
A runner at first base

1730
01:47:34,080 --> 01:47:36,080
went away.

1731
01:47:36,080 --> 01:47:38,080
Bottom of the eighth.

1732
01:47:38,080 --> 01:47:40,080
The Cubs trying to come from behind.

1733
01:47:42,080 --> 01:47:44,080
Now the signal to give it.

1734
01:47:44,080 --> 01:47:46,080
Hal Breden

1735
01:47:46,080 --> 01:47:48,080
is going to be a pinch hitter.

1736
01:47:48,080 --> 01:47:50,080
Now the stretch.

1737
01:47:50,080 --> 01:47:52,080
Here's the

1738
01:47:52,080 --> 01:47:54,080
pitch on the way.

1739
01:47:54,080 --> 01:47:56,080
Swung over and popped up.

1740
01:47:56,080 --> 01:47:58,080
In foul territory who's going to get it? Bill Melton

1741
01:47:58,080 --> 01:48:00,080
calling for the ball. Make

1742
01:48:00,080 --> 01:48:02,080
a juggle before it hits the ground.

1743
01:48:02,080 --> 01:48:04,080
Bill Melton

1744
01:48:04,080 --> 01:48:06,080
fumbled that ball but he was catching

1745
01:48:06,080 --> 01:48:08,080
it up by his head.

1746
01:48:08,080 --> 01:48:10,080
And when it popped out of his glove

1747
01:48:10,080 --> 01:48:12,080
he had time to grab it again.

1748
01:48:12,080 --> 01:48:14,080
So Santos

1749
01:48:14,080 --> 01:48:16,080
fouls to Melton.

1750
01:48:16,080 --> 01:48:18,080
Two out in here

1751
01:48:18,080 --> 01:48:20,080
is Hal Breden who hit a free run

1752
01:48:20,080 --> 01:48:22,080
homer yesterday. He's batting

1753
01:48:22,080 --> 01:48:24,080
for Holtzman. Breden had

1754
01:48:24,080 --> 01:48:26,080
37 home runs in Richmond last year.

1755
01:48:26,080 --> 01:48:28,080
And apparently

1756
01:48:28,080 --> 01:48:30,080
he has made the club

1757
01:48:30,080 --> 01:48:32,080
a pinch hitter.

1758
01:48:32,080 --> 01:48:34,080
Hal Breden

1759
01:48:38,080 --> 01:48:40,080
Breden getting ready.

1760
01:48:42,080 --> 01:48:44,080
Healy trying to pitch out of trouble.

1761
01:48:44,080 --> 01:48:46,080
Breden

1762
01:48:46,080 --> 01:48:48,080
27 years old

1763
01:48:48,080 --> 01:48:50,080
from Albany, Georgia. Here's the pitch.

1764
01:48:50,080 --> 01:48:52,080
There's a line, spare, spare

1765
01:48:52,080 --> 01:48:54,080
into the corner. That's the base.

1766
01:48:54,080 --> 01:48:56,080
He's got a chance to score a run.

1767
01:48:56,080 --> 01:48:58,080
Today a fan touches the ball.

1768
01:48:58,080 --> 01:49:00,080
Hey, they're going to have to stop them to win for the score.

1769
01:49:00,080 --> 01:49:02,080
But let's see what they're going to give them.

1770
01:49:02,080 --> 01:49:04,080
A fan reached over the railing

1771
01:49:04,080 --> 01:49:06,080
to touch the ball.

1772
01:49:08,080 --> 01:49:10,080
Hillie Williams is allowed to score.

1773
01:49:10,080 --> 01:49:12,080
Chuck Tanner comes out

1774
01:49:12,080 --> 01:49:14,080
to talk to the umpire.

1775
01:49:14,080 --> 01:49:16,080
In the judgment of the umpire

1776
01:49:16,080 --> 01:49:18,080
Walker

1777
01:49:18,080 --> 01:49:20,080
Hillie Williams with a score for first base.

1778
01:49:20,080 --> 01:49:22,080
And so Chuck Tanner

1779
01:49:22,080 --> 01:49:24,080
is arguing with the

1780
01:49:24,080 --> 01:49:26,080
plate umpire that if it's a

1781
01:49:26,080 --> 01:49:28,080
ground rule double, Hillie Williams

1782
01:49:28,080 --> 01:49:30,080
should be stopped at third base.

1783
01:49:30,080 --> 01:49:32,080
Larry Barnett is the plate umpire

1784
01:49:32,080 --> 01:49:34,080
and he is saying, I think, that in his opinion

1785
01:49:34,080 --> 01:49:36,080
Williams would have scored

1786
01:49:36,080 --> 01:49:38,080
and that he shouldn't be deprived of the run.

1787
01:49:38,080 --> 01:49:40,080
And Chuck Tanner is bringing up

1788
01:49:40,080 --> 01:49:42,080
a point of order. If it is a

1789
01:49:42,080 --> 01:49:44,080
ground rule double because of

1790
01:49:44,080 --> 01:49:46,080
the fan touching the ball, why

1791
01:49:46,080 --> 01:49:48,080
shouldn't Williams be forced

1792
01:49:48,080 --> 01:49:50,080
to stop at third base?

1793
01:49:50,080 --> 01:49:52,080
So Breden again comes in with a

1794
01:49:52,080 --> 01:49:54,080
very significant

1795
01:49:54,080 --> 01:49:56,080
pitch hit. And now the Cubs

1796
01:49:56,080 --> 01:49:58,080
trail only by one. It's 4-2.

1797
01:49:58,080 --> 01:50:00,080
Keely is not at all

1798
01:50:00,080 --> 01:50:02,080
sharp.

1799
01:50:02,080 --> 01:50:04,080
Here's a stretch.

1800
01:50:04,080 --> 01:50:06,080
The pitch to Callison.

1801
01:50:06,080 --> 01:50:08,080
Here it is. Swung on a high

1802
01:50:08,080 --> 01:50:10,080
fly ball. Right field.

1803
01:50:10,080 --> 01:50:12,080
McKinney coming in.

1804
01:50:12,080 --> 01:50:14,080
And if our territory

1805
01:50:14,080 --> 01:50:16,080
nobody can reach the ball.

1806
01:50:18,080 --> 01:50:20,080
And Mr.

1807
01:50:20,080 --> 01:50:22,080
Keely can feel very lucky

1808
01:50:24,080 --> 01:50:26,080
that that ball wasn't hit out of the ball park.

1809
01:50:26,080 --> 01:50:28,080
He threw Callison

1810
01:50:28,080 --> 01:50:30,080
a hanging lollipop curveball.

1811
01:50:30,080 --> 01:50:32,080
Callison just

1812
01:50:32,080 --> 01:50:34,080
happened to pop the ball up in foul

1813
01:50:34,080 --> 01:50:36,080
territory. It might have been

1814
01:50:36,080 --> 01:50:38,080
caught by either Andrews or McKinney

1815
01:50:38,080 --> 01:50:40,080
but neither one did reach the ball.

1816
01:50:42,080 --> 01:50:44,080
Wilbur Wood

1817
01:50:44,080 --> 01:50:46,080
starting to

1818
01:50:46,080 --> 01:50:48,080
warm up.

1819
01:50:48,080 --> 01:50:50,080
Keely was lucky to get out of the seventh

1820
01:50:50,080 --> 01:50:52,080
with only one run.

1821
01:50:52,080 --> 01:50:54,080
And he's already

1822
01:50:54,080 --> 01:50:56,080
permitted one in the eighth.

1823
01:50:56,080 --> 01:50:58,080
And he doesn't seem to have

1824
01:50:58,080 --> 01:51:00,080
too much out there at the moment.

1825
01:51:00,080 --> 01:51:02,080
He needs this out badly here.

1826
01:51:02,080 --> 01:51:04,080
Johnny Callison who's had two out of three

1827
01:51:04,080 --> 01:51:06,080
so far. Here's the pitch.

1828
01:51:06,080 --> 01:51:08,080
Wings and he misses a fast ball.

1829
01:51:08,080 --> 01:51:10,080
He's in the hole two strikes and

1830
01:51:10,080 --> 01:51:12,080
nothing.

1831
01:51:12,080 --> 01:51:14,080
Callison, the only time he was retired

1832
01:51:14,080 --> 01:51:16,080
was on a line drive right back

1833
01:51:16,080 --> 01:51:18,080
to the pitcher.

1834
01:51:20,080 --> 01:51:22,080
Four to two in favor

1835
01:51:22,080 --> 01:51:24,080
of the white side.

1836
01:51:26,080 --> 01:51:28,080
Now the signal.

1837
01:51:30,080 --> 01:51:32,080
Keely getting ready.

1838
01:51:32,080 --> 01:51:34,080
Here's the pitch.

1839
01:51:36,080 --> 01:51:38,080
Fastball outside.

1840
01:51:38,080 --> 01:51:40,080
Two strikes on the ball. Keely is primarily

1841
01:51:40,080 --> 01:51:42,080
a fastball pitcher.

1842
01:51:42,080 --> 01:51:44,080
Let's see who's that warming up

1843
01:51:44,080 --> 01:51:46,080
down there.

1844
01:51:48,080 --> 01:51:50,080
Left-hander for the Cubs.

1845
01:51:50,080 --> 01:51:52,080
Wilbur Wood I guess.

1846
01:51:52,080 --> 01:51:54,080
Two strikes on the ball.

1847
01:51:56,080 --> 01:51:58,080
There's B.B. Richard cutting behind the runner to pitch.

1848
01:51:58,080 --> 01:52:00,080
High curveball inside.

1849
01:52:00,080 --> 01:52:02,080
The count evens.

1850
01:52:02,080 --> 01:52:04,080
Johnny Callison

1851
01:52:04,080 --> 01:52:06,080
is the play.

1852
01:52:06,080 --> 01:52:08,080
Runner at second base. Two men are out.

1853
01:52:08,080 --> 01:52:10,080
Whedon pinch hit a

1854
01:52:10,080 --> 01:52:12,080
three run homer yesterday.

1855
01:52:12,080 --> 01:52:14,080
And today he's doubled

1856
01:52:14,080 --> 01:52:16,080
in a run.

1857
01:52:16,080 --> 01:52:18,080
Two balls, two strikes.

1858
01:52:18,080 --> 01:52:20,080
Here's the pitch.

1859
01:52:20,080 --> 01:52:22,080
There's a smash. Carlos

1860
01:52:22,080 --> 01:52:24,080
May a beautiful stop races to the back

1861
01:52:24,080 --> 01:52:26,080
and wins to retire the

1862
01:52:26,080 --> 01:52:28,080
side. Holy cow what

1863
01:52:28,080 --> 01:52:30,080
a play.

1864
01:52:30,080 --> 01:52:32,080
Johnny Callison really hit

1865
01:52:32,080 --> 01:52:34,080
a bullet down the first base

1866
01:52:34,080 --> 01:52:36,080
line. Carlos May was

1867
01:52:36,080 --> 01:52:38,080
playing him to full. He

1868
01:52:38,080 --> 01:52:40,080
took a dive for the ball at the foul

1869
01:52:40,080 --> 01:52:42,080
line, came up with it. Then he was

1870
01:52:42,080 --> 01:52:44,080
lying on all four. He had a scramble

1871
01:52:44,080 --> 01:52:46,080
into position. The ball was hit so hard

1872
01:52:46,080 --> 01:52:48,080
that the pitcher clearly never had a chance

1873
01:52:48,080 --> 01:52:50,080
to cover. So Carlos May

1874
01:52:50,080 --> 01:52:52,080
had nobody to throw the ball to.

1875
01:52:52,080 --> 01:52:54,080
He had to engage in a foot race

1876
01:52:54,080 --> 01:52:56,080
with Johnny Callison

1877
01:52:56,080 --> 01:52:58,080
and he won it by a strike.

1878
01:52:58,080 --> 01:53:00,080
Beautiful play by May.

1879
01:53:00,080 --> 01:53:02,080
So the total's only any one run.

1880
01:53:02,080 --> 01:53:04,080
One hit, no air.

1881
01:53:04,080 --> 01:53:06,080
One left. And at the end of eight

1882
01:53:06,080 --> 01:53:08,080
very interesting innings to score.

1883
01:53:08,080 --> 01:53:10,080
The Chicago White Sox four.

1884
01:53:10,080 --> 01:53:12,080
The Chicago Cubs two.

1885
01:53:16,080 --> 01:53:18,080
Hey Charlie, just gave your place a plug.

1886
01:53:18,080 --> 01:53:20,080
Hey.

1887
01:53:20,080 --> 01:53:21,080
Now 15 for the

1888
01:53:21,080 --> 01:53:23,080
number 48 Jim

1889
01:53:23,080 --> 01:53:25,080
Colemore.

1890
01:53:25,080 --> 01:53:27,080
You're going to have to wait there.

1891
01:53:27,080 --> 01:53:29,080
You should have been.

1892
01:53:29,080 --> 01:53:31,080
I've seen. Somebody said you were in there.

1893
01:53:31,080 --> 01:53:33,080
I went over there.

1894
01:53:33,080 --> 01:53:35,080
You're sharing the way. I thought that was

1895
01:53:35,080 --> 01:53:37,080
the way. Are you guys open tonight?

1896
01:53:37,080 --> 01:53:39,080
Yeah. Go.

1897
01:53:39,080 --> 01:53:41,080
We'll see you tonight.

1898
01:53:41,080 --> 01:53:50,080
Oh,

1899
01:53:50,080 --> 01:53:52,080
yeah.

1900
01:54:00,080 --> 01:54:02,080
Big ball.

1901
01:54:02,080 --> 01:54:04,080
There's Dave on the.

1902
01:54:04,080 --> 01:54:06,080
The table.

1903
01:54:06,080 --> 01:54:08,080
Dave.

1904
01:54:08,080 --> 01:54:10,080
Oh,

1905
01:54:10,080 --> 01:54:12,080
thanks Charlie.

1906
01:54:19,080 --> 01:54:21,080
Well, the amenities of the season.

1907
01:54:21,080 --> 01:54:23,080
Chuck Tanner comes over, talks with Leo

1908
01:54:23,080 --> 01:54:25,080
DeRosier, they chat for a little bit.

1909
01:54:25,080 --> 01:54:27,080
Then pat each other in the back.

1910
01:54:27,080 --> 01:54:29,080
Shake hands. You can almost

1911
01:54:29,080 --> 01:54:31,080
mind read what they're saying.

1912
01:54:31,080 --> 01:54:33,080
Have a good year.

1913
01:54:33,080 --> 01:54:35,080
I know the

1914
01:54:35,080 --> 01:54:37,080
White Sox to a man.

1915
01:54:37,080 --> 01:54:39,080
Hope that the Cubs will win the

1916
01:54:39,080 --> 01:54:41,080
National League pennant.

1917
01:54:41,080 --> 01:54:43,080
And I'm sure that the Cubs

1918
01:54:43,080 --> 01:54:45,080
wish the White Sox nothing

1919
01:54:45,080 --> 01:54:47,080
but the very best.

1920
01:54:49,080 --> 01:54:51,080
It is a utopian thought.

1921
01:54:53,080 --> 01:54:55,080
But nevertheless,

1922
01:54:55,080 --> 01:54:57,080
maybe not an impossible

1923
01:54:57,080 --> 01:54:59,080
dream.

1924
01:54:59,080 --> 01:55:01,080
That perhaps someday these two clubs will

1925
01:55:01,080 --> 01:55:03,080
engage in an all Chicago

1926
01:55:03,080 --> 01:55:05,080
World Series. There is

1927
01:55:05,080 --> 01:55:07,080
first man up there.

1928
01:55:07,080 --> 01:55:09,080
Ed Herman, first pitch he drills in the

1929
01:55:09,080 --> 01:55:11,080
right center field for a base hit.

1930
01:55:11,080 --> 01:55:13,080
Herman gets his first hit of the day

1931
01:55:13,080 --> 01:55:15,080
as he lines a single in the

1932
01:55:15,080 --> 01:55:17,080
right center. We have a new pitcher in there

1933
01:55:17,080 --> 01:55:19,080
for the Chicago Cubs.

1934
01:55:19,080 --> 01:55:21,080
Kim Colburn.

1935
01:55:21,080 --> 01:55:23,080
Colburn, a

1936
01:55:23,080 --> 01:55:25,080
right hander.

1937
01:55:25,080 --> 01:55:27,080
At his very first pitch, Ed Herman

1938
01:55:27,080 --> 01:55:29,080
wrapped in the right center for a base hit.

1939
01:55:31,080 --> 01:55:33,080
Here's Keely now.

1940
01:55:33,080 --> 01:55:35,080
Turner at first, nobody up.

1941
01:55:35,080 --> 01:55:37,080
Holtzman, pitch four innings.

1942
01:55:43,080 --> 01:55:45,080
He allowed only one run.

1943
01:55:47,080 --> 01:55:49,080
Permitted four hits.

1944
01:55:49,080 --> 01:55:51,080
Kim Colburn, a right hander

1945
01:55:51,080 --> 01:55:53,080
from Santa Paula, California.

1946
01:55:53,080 --> 01:55:55,080
24 years old, he throws over the first base

1947
01:55:55,080 --> 01:55:57,080
to Pepitone.

1948
01:55:57,080 --> 01:55:59,080
But Herman is on the back.

1949
01:55:59,080 --> 01:56:01,080
Colburn last year for the Cubs, one three

1950
01:56:01,080 --> 01:56:03,080
and one miss one.

1951
01:56:05,080 --> 01:56:07,080
Here's the pitch.

1952
01:56:07,080 --> 01:56:09,080
Run and foul back and out of play.

1953
01:56:09,080 --> 01:56:11,080
It was a fan, a souvenir for somebody.

1954
01:56:11,080 --> 01:56:13,080
Colburn, graduated from

1955
01:56:13,080 --> 01:56:15,080
Whittier California College and is now

1956
01:56:15,080 --> 01:56:17,080
working on his master's degree in sociology

1957
01:56:17,080 --> 01:56:19,080
at the University of Washington.

1958
01:56:21,080 --> 01:56:23,080
So he's a brain.

1959
01:56:25,080 --> 01:56:27,080
Leo DeRosier will trade all that gray matter

1960
01:56:27,080 --> 01:56:31,080
for a good pitching arm.

1961
01:56:31,080 --> 01:56:33,080
So here's Keely trying to advance the runner.

1962
01:56:33,080 --> 01:56:35,080
Four to two in favor of the white side.

1963
01:56:35,080 --> 01:56:37,080
Throw to first, runner back.

1964
01:56:39,080 --> 01:56:41,080
Rick Talley of the Chicago Today

1965
01:56:41,080 --> 01:56:43,080
will be the post game

1966
01:56:43,080 --> 01:56:45,080
guest with Ralph.

1967
01:56:47,080 --> 01:56:49,080
Immediately following, so I hope you'll stay tuned.

1968
01:56:49,080 --> 01:56:51,080
Here's the pitch on the way.

1969
01:56:51,080 --> 01:56:53,080
Spike is called.

1970
01:56:53,080 --> 01:56:55,080
Two strikes and nothing.

1971
01:56:55,080 --> 01:56:57,080
Keely is in the hole.

1972
01:56:57,080 --> 01:56:59,080
Trying to advance Ed Herman.

1973
01:56:59,080 --> 01:57:01,080
B.B. Richard will be up there next.

1974
01:57:01,080 --> 01:57:03,080
Richard has played a sparkling game

1975
01:57:03,080 --> 01:57:05,080
at shortstop.

1976
01:57:05,080 --> 01:57:07,080
He's had one out of three at the plate.

1977
01:57:07,080 --> 01:57:09,080
Contributed a stolen base.

1978
01:57:11,080 --> 01:57:13,080
Not much more than anybody

1979
01:57:13,080 --> 01:57:15,080
can do with this youngster.

1980
01:57:15,080 --> 01:57:17,080
And likewise, Louis Alvarado

1981
01:57:17,080 --> 01:57:19,080
is rival for the position.

1982
01:57:19,080 --> 01:57:21,080
Pitch to Keely.

1983
01:57:21,080 --> 01:57:23,080
He bonds beautifully.

1984
01:57:23,080 --> 01:57:25,080
The only A, the only play, first base.

1985
01:57:25,080 --> 01:57:27,080
And inbound.

1986
01:57:27,080 --> 01:57:29,080
Becker took the throw from Ken Rudolph.

1987
01:57:31,080 --> 01:57:33,080
It's a perfect sacrifice by Steve Keely.

1988
01:57:35,080 --> 01:57:37,080
And with one out, here's B.B. Richard.

1989
01:57:41,080 --> 01:57:43,080
Richard, one out of three today.

1990
01:57:43,080 --> 01:57:45,080
The batter to an eye.

1991
01:57:45,080 --> 01:57:47,080
So Richard and World Williams

1992
01:57:47,080 --> 01:57:49,080
will have a shot at driving in another run.

1993
01:57:49,080 --> 01:57:51,080
White Sox out in front.

1994
01:57:51,080 --> 01:57:53,080
Four to two were in the top of the ninth.

1995
01:57:53,080 --> 01:57:55,080
The Chicago Bulls evened up

1996
01:57:55,080 --> 01:57:57,080
the basketball playoffs.

1997
01:57:57,080 --> 01:57:59,080
And now it'll all be decided Thursday night

1998
01:57:59,080 --> 01:58:01,080
in Los Angeles.

1999
01:58:01,080 --> 01:58:03,080
Here's the pitch.

2000
01:58:03,080 --> 01:58:05,080
Swung and far back and out of play.

2001
01:58:05,080 --> 01:58:07,080
The Lakers will have the home

2002
01:58:07,080 --> 01:58:09,080
court advantage.

2003
01:58:09,080 --> 01:58:11,080
The playoffs tie

2004
01:58:11,080 --> 01:58:13,080
three games to three.

2005
01:58:13,080 --> 01:58:15,080
And will be decided at the forum.

2006
01:58:15,080 --> 01:58:17,080
Jack Kent Cook's Palace.

2007
01:58:17,080 --> 01:58:19,080
Next Thursday night.

2008
01:58:19,080 --> 01:58:21,080
Here's the stretch.

2009
01:58:21,080 --> 01:58:23,080
The pitch.

2010
01:58:23,080 --> 01:58:25,080
Well, we'll be home.

2011
01:58:25,080 --> 01:58:27,080
It's an off date next Thursday night in Chicago.

2012
01:58:27,080 --> 01:58:29,080
Sit at the Ambassador East Hotel.

2013
01:58:31,080 --> 01:58:33,080
And watch the game.

2014
01:58:33,080 --> 01:58:35,080
And pull for the Bulls to

2015
01:58:35,080 --> 01:58:37,080
upset the Lakers.

2016
01:58:39,080 --> 01:58:41,080
Now the stretch.

2017
01:58:41,080 --> 01:58:43,080
Here's the pitch.

2018
01:58:43,080 --> 01:58:45,080
Into the dirt.

2019
01:58:45,080 --> 01:58:47,080
Pounces on the ball.

2020
01:58:49,080 --> 01:58:51,080
Lovely afternoon and overflow crowd

2021
01:58:51,080 --> 01:58:53,080
of 4158.

2022
01:58:53,080 --> 01:58:55,080
As these two teams end

2023
01:58:55,080 --> 01:58:57,080
spring training.

2024
01:58:59,080 --> 01:59:01,080
The White Sox are shooting for

2025
01:59:01,080 --> 01:59:03,080
their 20th victory of the spring

2026
01:59:03,080 --> 01:59:05,080
campaign. They've lost only nine times.

2027
01:59:05,080 --> 01:59:07,080
But they suffered a very

2028
01:59:07,080 --> 01:59:09,080
telling injury today

2029
01:59:09,080 --> 01:59:11,080
when Joe Horland was hurt.

2030
01:59:11,080 --> 01:59:13,080
Two balls and a strike.

2031
01:59:15,080 --> 01:59:17,080
The glance at second base.

2032
01:59:17,080 --> 01:59:19,080
The pitch to Richard.

2033
01:59:19,080 --> 01:59:21,080
Ground ball to the shortstop.

2034
01:59:21,080 --> 01:59:23,080
Herman trying for third.

2035
01:59:23,080 --> 01:59:25,080
Kessinger's play. Very close but he's out.

2036
01:59:25,080 --> 01:59:27,080
So Kessinger

2037
01:59:27,080 --> 01:59:29,080
throws out B.B. Richard.

2038
01:59:29,080 --> 01:59:31,080
Ed Herman.

2039
01:59:31,080 --> 01:59:33,080
Maybe Kessinger might

2040
01:59:33,080 --> 01:59:35,080
take a shot at him.

2041
01:59:35,080 --> 01:59:37,080
But he took the sure play.

2042
01:59:37,080 --> 01:59:39,080
Two out. Here's Walt Williams who drove in

2043
01:59:39,080 --> 01:59:41,080
the run on the seventh.

2044
01:59:41,080 --> 01:59:43,080
Walt Williams has won

2045
01:59:43,080 --> 01:59:45,080
the regular job in the outfield

2046
01:59:45,080 --> 01:59:47,080
at least to start the season.

2047
01:59:49,080 --> 01:59:51,080
When Chuck Tanner took over during the winter

2048
01:59:53,080 --> 01:59:55,080
Walt Williams didn't even figure in Chuck's

2049
01:59:55,080 --> 01:59:57,080
opinion

2050
01:59:57,080 --> 01:59:59,080
on even making the team.

2051
02:00:01,080 --> 02:00:03,080
But there was insight to Tanner that

2052
02:00:03,080 --> 02:00:05,080
he feels this guy through his

2053
02:00:05,080 --> 02:00:09,080
performance this spring must be rewarded.

2054
02:00:09,080 --> 02:00:11,080
And therefore he has given him the

2055
02:00:11,080 --> 02:00:13,080
starting job.

2056
02:00:13,080 --> 02:00:15,080
Here's the pitch to Walt.

2057
02:00:15,080 --> 02:00:17,080
Swung on a high fly ball right field.

2058
02:00:17,080 --> 02:00:19,080
Here's Callison coming in under the ball.

2059
02:00:19,080 --> 02:00:21,080
He's got room. Makes the catch to

2060
02:00:21,080 --> 02:00:23,080
retire to south.

2061
02:00:23,080 --> 02:00:25,080
Don't go runs. One hit to the air. One left.

2062
02:00:25,080 --> 02:00:27,080
We go into the bottom of the ninth

2063
02:00:27,080 --> 02:00:29,080
with a score. White Sox

2064
02:00:29,080 --> 02:00:37,080
four comes to.

2065
02:00:37,080 --> 02:00:39,080
Ladies and gentlemen this time the

2066
02:00:39,080 --> 02:00:41,080
Scottsdale Charo's would like to

2067
02:00:41,080 --> 02:00:43,080
thank you very much for

2068
02:00:43,080 --> 02:00:45,080
majorizing our ballgames this spring.

2069
02:00:45,080 --> 02:00:47,080
Making it another successful spring.

2070
02:00:47,080 --> 02:00:49,080
The second year in a row the

2071
02:00:49,080 --> 02:00:51,080
Scottsdale is led the Cactus League

2072
02:00:51,080 --> 02:00:53,080
in attendance. Thank you very much.

2073
02:00:53,080 --> 02:00:55,080
We'd also

2074
02:00:55,080 --> 02:00:57,080
like for you to join us. We're

2075
02:00:57,080 --> 02:00:59,080
sure you do. We're wishing the Chicago

2076
02:00:59,080 --> 02:01:01,080
Cubs the best of luck

2077
02:01:01,080 --> 02:01:03,080
when they leave here today and go in

2078
02:01:03,080 --> 02:01:05,080
search of the National League.

2079
02:01:05,080 --> 02:01:29,080
Thank you.

2080
02:01:35,080 --> 02:01:37,080
We're going to the bottom of the ninth

2081
02:01:37,080 --> 02:01:39,080
inning and Jose Ortiz

2082
02:01:39,080 --> 02:01:41,080
will lead it off against Steve Keely.

2083
02:01:41,080 --> 02:01:43,080
The White Sox holding a four to two

2084
02:01:43,080 --> 02:01:45,080
lead in this rubber game of the three

2085
02:01:45,080 --> 02:01:47,080
game series.

2086
02:01:47,080 --> 02:01:49,080
For the Mythical

2087
02:01:49,080 --> 02:01:51,080
Baseball Championship of the city of

2088
02:01:51,080 --> 02:01:53,080
Chicago.

2089
02:01:53,080 --> 02:01:55,080
The first batter at the bottom of the ninth inning.

2090
02:01:55,080 --> 02:01:57,080
Ortiz is nothing out of three today.

2091
02:01:57,080 --> 02:01:59,080
Jose Ortiz center field.

2092
02:01:59,080 --> 02:02:01,080
It's the first time in the last four

2093
02:02:01,080 --> 02:02:03,080
days that he's been in the

2094
02:02:03,080 --> 02:02:05,080
first time in the last four days

2095
02:02:05,080 --> 02:02:09,080
that he hasn't

2096
02:02:09,080 --> 02:02:11,080
had three hits.

2097
02:02:11,080 --> 02:02:13,080
It will be Ortiz

2098
02:02:13,080 --> 02:02:15,080
Rudolph and Pepa Tone in this

2099
02:02:15,080 --> 02:02:17,080
inning.

2100
02:02:17,080 --> 02:02:19,080
Nobody on nobody out.

2101
02:02:19,080 --> 02:02:21,080
Ortiz leading it off.

2102
02:02:21,080 --> 02:02:23,080
Steve Keely gets set. Here's the

2103
02:02:23,080 --> 02:02:25,080
pitch on the way and it's high.

2104
02:02:25,080 --> 02:02:27,080
One ball no strike.

2105
02:02:27,080 --> 02:02:29,080
Two left handers are

2106
02:02:29,080 --> 02:02:31,080
in the bullpen.

2107
02:02:31,080 --> 02:02:33,080
For the White Sox. Wilbur Wood is one

2108
02:02:33,080 --> 02:02:35,080
of them. Looks like Forster is the

2109
02:02:35,080 --> 02:02:37,080
other one.

2110
02:02:37,080 --> 02:02:39,080
One ball no strike.

2111
02:02:39,080 --> 02:02:41,080
Ortiz

2112
02:02:41,080 --> 02:02:43,080
digging in waves that bat around. Here's the

2113
02:02:43,080 --> 02:02:45,080
pitch.

2114
02:02:45,080 --> 02:02:47,080
Right down the middle of a good fastball a strike off.

2115
02:02:47,080 --> 02:02:49,080
That evens it up with a ball and a

2116
02:02:49,080 --> 02:02:51,080
strike.

2117
02:02:51,080 --> 02:02:53,080
Nobody on nobody out. White Sox

2118
02:02:53,080 --> 02:02:55,080
leading four to two bottom of the ninth.

2119
02:02:55,080 --> 02:02:57,080
The Chicago Cubs lead

2120
02:02:57,080 --> 02:02:59,080
after the game to go home to Chicago.

2121
02:02:59,080 --> 02:03:01,080
Where they open up against the Cardinals

2122
02:03:01,080 --> 02:03:03,080
Tuesday afternoon.

2123
02:03:03,080 --> 02:03:05,080
Here's the pitch. One on bouncing ball

2124
02:03:05,080 --> 02:03:07,080
melting to his right in foul territory.

2125
02:03:07,080 --> 02:03:09,080
It isn't fair to throw. He would have been out

2126
02:03:09,080 --> 02:03:11,080
but it's a foul ball.

2127
02:03:11,080 --> 02:03:13,080
So Ortiz

2128
02:03:13,080 --> 02:03:15,080
will return to the back.

2129
02:03:15,080 --> 02:03:17,080
The White Sox stay right here in

2130
02:03:17,080 --> 02:03:19,080
Scottsdale for a couple more days of practice

2131
02:03:19,080 --> 02:03:21,080
because they don't open the season

2132
02:03:21,080 --> 02:03:23,080
until Wednesday afternoon and then with a

2133
02:03:23,080 --> 02:03:25,080
double header in Oakland.

2134
02:03:25,080 --> 02:03:27,080
Our broadcast time over all these

2135
02:03:27,080 --> 02:03:29,080
stations will be 3 15

2136
02:03:29,080 --> 02:03:31,080
Chicago time

2137
02:03:31,080 --> 02:03:33,080
Wednesday afternoon.

2138
02:03:33,080 --> 02:03:37,080
I sincerely hope you'll be with us.

2139
02:03:37,080 --> 02:03:39,080
And then the home opener

2140
02:03:39,080 --> 02:03:41,080
Friday afternoon April the ninth

2141
02:03:41,080 --> 02:03:43,080
at White Sox Park against

2142
02:03:43,080 --> 02:03:45,080
the division champion

2143
02:03:45,080 --> 02:03:47,080
Minnesota twin. Harmon Killibrew

2144
02:03:47,080 --> 02:03:49,080
Tony Oliva and company.

2145
02:03:49,080 --> 02:03:51,080
Here's the pitch. Swung on

2146
02:03:51,080 --> 02:03:53,080
fly ball left center field. It may drop

2147
02:03:53,080 --> 02:03:55,080
may drop may drop may drop may drop.

2148
02:03:55,080 --> 02:03:57,080
It does.

2149
02:03:57,080 --> 02:03:59,080
Walt Williams made a long

2150
02:03:59,080 --> 02:04:01,080
run for that ball but couldn't get to

2151
02:04:01,080 --> 02:04:03,080
it. So the Cubs are alive

2152
02:04:03,080 --> 02:04:05,080
in the bottom of the ninth.

2153
02:04:05,080 --> 02:04:07,080
And here is Rudolph.

2154
02:04:07,080 --> 02:04:09,080
The next batter number 15

2155
02:04:09,080 --> 02:04:11,080
Ken Rudolph. That was a

2156
02:04:11,080 --> 02:04:13,080
blue pin.

2157
02:04:13,080 --> 02:04:15,080
Walt Williams gave it quite a try.

2158
02:04:15,080 --> 02:04:17,080
Made a one handed pick up of the ball.

2159
02:04:19,080 --> 02:04:21,080
And now here is

2160
02:04:21,080 --> 02:04:25,080
Rudolph.

2161
02:04:25,080 --> 02:04:29,080
Right handed hitter.

2162
02:04:29,080 --> 02:04:31,080
Big guy. Here's Keely getting

2163
02:04:31,080 --> 02:04:33,080
ready. And the

2164
02:04:33,080 --> 02:04:35,080
pitch. Here it is.

2165
02:04:35,080 --> 02:04:37,080
Everything he's throwing is high. High

2166
02:04:37,080 --> 02:04:39,080
curve ball. One ball no strike.

2167
02:04:39,080 --> 02:04:41,080
He wants to get the ball

2168
02:04:41,080 --> 02:04:43,080
down.

2169
02:04:43,080 --> 02:04:45,080
He'd like to get Rudolph to hit it with

2170
02:04:45,080 --> 02:04:47,080
double play. Rudolph is not fast.

2171
02:04:47,080 --> 02:04:49,080
Not a stretch.

2172
02:04:49,080 --> 02:04:51,080
Here's the pitch on the way.

2173
02:04:51,080 --> 02:04:53,080
High curve

2174
02:04:53,080 --> 02:04:55,080
again. Can't get the ball down.

2175
02:04:55,080 --> 02:04:57,080
And he's in a hole. And the

2176
02:04:57,080 --> 02:04:59,080
activity in the bullpen

2177
02:04:59,080 --> 02:05:01,080
becomes more energetic.

2178
02:05:01,080 --> 02:05:03,080
Now the

2179
02:05:03,080 --> 02:05:05,080
signal given.

2180
02:05:05,080 --> 02:05:07,080
Two balls no strike.

2181
02:05:07,080 --> 02:05:09,080
Rudolph waits.

2182
02:05:09,080 --> 02:05:11,080
Steve Keely delivers.

2183
02:05:11,080 --> 02:05:13,080
Here it is. Right down

2184
02:05:13,080 --> 02:05:15,080
the middle of good fastball.

2185
02:05:15,080 --> 02:05:17,080
And Rudolph was taking two balls

2186
02:05:17,080 --> 02:05:19,080
and a strike. Four to two

2187
02:05:19,080 --> 02:05:21,080
in favor of the white side.

2188
02:05:21,080 --> 02:05:23,080
Where in the ninth?

2189
02:05:23,080 --> 02:05:25,080
The Cubs trying to pull it out of the

2190
02:05:25,080 --> 02:05:27,080
fire.

2191
02:05:27,080 --> 02:05:29,080
Now Keely gets ready.

2192
02:05:29,080 --> 02:05:31,080
And the pitch. Here it is.

2193
02:05:31,080 --> 02:05:33,080
He swings and misses.

2194
02:05:33,080 --> 02:05:35,080
And the count evens up.

2195
02:05:35,080 --> 02:05:37,080
Two balls. Two strikes.

2196
02:05:37,080 --> 02:05:39,080
Rudolph had a good pitch to hit.

2197
02:05:39,080 --> 02:05:41,080
A letter high fastball.

2198
02:05:41,080 --> 02:05:43,080
And he swung right through it.

2199
02:05:43,080 --> 02:05:45,080
Peanuts Lowry coaching a third base

2200
02:05:45,080 --> 02:05:47,080
for the Cubs.

2201
02:05:47,080 --> 02:05:49,080
Joey Amalfatano at first base.

2202
02:05:49,080 --> 02:05:51,080
Bright sunshine. A red hot

2203
02:05:51,080 --> 02:05:53,080
sun. Temperature in the mid

2204
02:05:53,080 --> 02:05:55,080
eighties.

2205
02:05:55,080 --> 02:05:57,080
Now the stretch. Here's the pitch.

2206
02:05:57,080 --> 02:05:59,080
Ground ball by B Double Play.

2207
02:05:59,080 --> 02:06:01,080
Melnard. Hey! Right throw there.

2208
02:06:01,080 --> 02:06:03,080
Here's the runner racing at third.

2209
02:06:03,080 --> 02:06:05,080
And there goes Rudolph

2210
02:06:05,080 --> 02:06:07,080
for second.

2211
02:06:07,080 --> 02:06:17,080
And he runs it all with nobody else.

2212
02:06:17,080 --> 02:06:19,080
That ball was hit

2213
02:06:19,080 --> 02:06:21,080
medium speed. It just never

2214
02:06:21,080 --> 02:06:23,080
came up for Melton.

2215
02:06:23,080 --> 02:06:25,080
Who was trying to rush

2216
02:06:25,080 --> 02:06:27,080
the play to get the double play.

2217
02:06:27,080 --> 02:06:29,080
Knowing that Rudolph is very slow.

2218
02:06:29,080 --> 02:06:31,080
That's going to be off for

2219
02:06:31,080 --> 02:06:33,080
Keely.

2220
02:06:33,080 --> 02:06:35,080
And Wilbur Wood I believe is going to be

2221
02:06:35,080 --> 02:06:37,080
brought in here to pitch to Joe Pepitone.

2222
02:06:37,080 --> 02:06:39,080
And the Cubs now have a great

2223
02:06:39,080 --> 02:06:41,080
chance

2224
02:06:41,080 --> 02:06:43,080
to pull this one out of the fire.

2225
02:06:43,080 --> 02:06:45,080
The tying runs are at second and third

2226
02:06:45,080 --> 02:06:47,080
with nobody out.

2227
02:06:47,080 --> 02:06:49,080
A bloop single

2228
02:06:49,080 --> 02:06:51,080
off the bat of our T's.

2229
02:06:51,080 --> 02:06:53,080
And a slow dribbler off

2230
02:06:53,080 --> 02:06:55,080
the bat of Rudolph which went through

2231
02:06:55,080 --> 02:06:57,080
Melton.

2232
02:06:57,080 --> 02:06:59,080
Runners at second and third. Nobody out.

2233
02:06:59,080 --> 02:07:01,080
And Wilbur

2234
02:07:01,080 --> 02:07:03,080
Wood

2235
02:07:03,080 --> 02:07:05,080
comes into relief.

2236
02:07:05,080 --> 02:07:07,080
Nobody out.

2237
02:07:07,080 --> 02:07:09,080
Down to middle fifth for the

2238
02:07:09,080 --> 02:07:11,080
White Sox. Number

2239
02:07:11,080 --> 02:07:13,080
28 Wilbur Wood.

2240
02:07:13,080 --> 02:07:15,080
Keely this was not one of his good outing.

2241
02:07:15,080 --> 02:07:17,080
He pitched two innings.

2242
02:07:17,080 --> 02:07:19,080
He was in trouble on every inning.

2243
02:07:19,080 --> 02:07:21,080
Everything he threw was up high.

2244
02:07:23,080 --> 02:07:25,080
He allowed five hits while he was

2245
02:07:25,080 --> 02:07:27,080
in there.

2246
02:07:27,080 --> 02:07:29,080
He allowed the first two runs

2247
02:07:29,080 --> 02:07:31,080
they made.

2248
02:07:31,080 --> 02:07:33,080
He had a shutout going when he came

2249
02:07:33,080 --> 02:07:35,080
into the contest.

2250
02:07:35,080 --> 02:07:37,080
But the Cubs

2251
02:07:37,080 --> 02:07:39,080
took a very very fun

2252
02:07:39,080 --> 02:07:41,080
liking to his pitching.

2253
02:07:41,080 --> 02:07:43,080
So he permitted

2254
02:07:43,080 --> 02:07:45,080
five hits.

2255
02:07:45,080 --> 02:07:47,080
The responsibility for these two runs belongs

2256
02:07:47,080 --> 02:07:49,080
to him. There is no way he

2257
02:07:49,080 --> 02:07:51,080
could be the losing pitcher.

2258
02:07:51,080 --> 02:07:53,080
Because the very worst that he could

2259
02:07:53,080 --> 02:07:55,080
be charged with would be four runs

2260
02:07:55,080 --> 02:07:57,080
which is the total the White Sox

2261
02:07:57,080 --> 02:07:59,080
had. So

2262
02:07:59,080 --> 02:08:01,080
Cuppetone will be the batter against the Knuckleball

2263
02:08:01,080 --> 02:08:03,080
or Wilbur Wood.

2264
02:08:03,080 --> 02:08:05,080
Now here is a game situation.

2265
02:08:05,080 --> 02:08:07,080
Cuppetone

2266
02:08:07,080 --> 02:08:09,080
singled in a run on the center.

2267
02:08:09,080 --> 02:08:11,080
The batter is number eight Joe Pemezon.

2268
02:08:11,080 --> 02:08:13,080
The infield is playing back.

2269
02:08:13,080 --> 02:08:15,080
The outfield is deep.

2270
02:08:15,080 --> 02:08:17,080
As Pempeton steps under the batter's box.

2271
02:08:17,080 --> 02:08:19,080
Four to two in favor of the

2272
02:08:19,080 --> 02:08:21,080
White Sox.

2273
02:08:21,080 --> 02:08:23,080
But the Cubs have a great

2274
02:08:23,080 --> 02:08:25,080
chance here to turn it around.

2275
02:08:25,080 --> 02:08:27,080
The pitch. Swung and a little pop

2276
02:08:27,080 --> 02:08:29,080
on the infield. Wilbur Wood

2277
02:08:29,080 --> 02:08:31,080
calls for the ball and hey almost dropped

2278
02:08:31,080 --> 02:08:33,080
and made the catch.

2279
02:08:33,080 --> 02:08:35,080
Pempeton on the first pitch popped to Wilbur Wood.

2280
02:08:35,080 --> 02:08:37,080
And it wasn't hit high enough for one

2281
02:08:37,080 --> 02:08:39,080
of the other infielders to call for.

2282
02:08:39,080 --> 02:08:41,080
Number eight on the left. Don Dessinger

2283
02:08:41,080 --> 02:08:43,080
shortstop.

2284
02:08:43,080 --> 02:08:45,080
Don with Don Umford.

2285
02:08:45,080 --> 02:08:47,080
Harry I was just over the hospital with Joe Horlan

2286
02:08:47,080 --> 02:08:49,080
and the x-rayed his left knee.

2287
02:08:49,080 --> 02:08:51,080
The x-ray showed that nothing was broken.

2288
02:08:51,080 --> 02:08:53,080
We'll have to wait and see how the swelling goes down

2289
02:08:53,080 --> 02:08:55,080
and find out whether the cartilage is torn

2290
02:08:55,080 --> 02:08:57,080
in his knee or not and we won't know that for a few days.

2291
02:08:57,080 --> 02:08:59,080
He's going back on the plane with the court.

2292
02:08:59,080 --> 02:09:01,080
Glenn Becker who grabbed it bare handed and

2293
02:09:01,080 --> 02:09:03,080
flipped it right back.

2294
02:09:03,080 --> 02:09:05,080
Pempeton on the

2295
02:09:05,080 --> 02:09:07,080
first pitch has popped out.

2296
02:09:07,080 --> 02:09:09,080
Can Wilbur Wood get out of this jam?

2297
02:09:09,080 --> 02:09:11,080
Becker will be next. Kessinger

2298
02:09:11,080 --> 02:09:13,080
hitting right handed now.

2299
02:09:13,080 --> 02:09:15,080
Here's a stretch by Wilbur Wood. The pitch.

2300
02:09:15,080 --> 02:09:17,080
Knock a ball into

2301
02:09:17,080 --> 02:09:19,080
the dirt. A nice play in there by

2302
02:09:19,080 --> 02:09:21,080
Ed Herman. Herman behind

2303
02:09:21,080 --> 02:09:23,080
the play. Boy he made

2304
02:09:23,080 --> 02:09:25,080
some play in the seventh inning.

2305
02:09:25,080 --> 02:09:27,080
Got a

2306
02:09:27,080 --> 02:09:29,080
throw from the outfield.

2307
02:09:29,080 --> 02:09:31,080
One ball, one strike.

2308
02:09:31,080 --> 02:09:33,080
Kessinger waiting. The delivery by

2309
02:09:33,080 --> 02:09:35,080
Wilbur Wood. Swings and he fouls it

2310
02:09:35,080 --> 02:09:37,080
back. Two strikes and a ball.

2311
02:09:37,080 --> 02:09:39,080
Kessinger was trying to poke that

2312
02:09:39,080 --> 02:09:41,080
knuckleball into right field.

2313
02:09:41,080 --> 02:09:43,080
Wilbur Wood.

2314
02:09:43,080 --> 02:09:45,080
He wants that strike out here.

2315
02:09:45,080 --> 02:09:47,080
Boy what an inspirational

2316
02:09:47,080 --> 02:09:49,080
job it would be if he could pitch his

2317
02:09:49,080 --> 02:09:51,080
way out of this jam. It'd be a

2318
02:09:51,080 --> 02:09:53,080
great way to end spring training.

2319
02:09:53,080 --> 02:09:55,080
With your ace relief pitcher

2320
02:09:55,080 --> 02:09:57,080
doing what he gets paid for.

2321
02:09:57,080 --> 02:09:59,080
Putting out fires.

2322
02:09:59,080 --> 02:10:01,080
But he's got two tough cookies to get.

2323
02:10:01,080 --> 02:10:03,080
Kessinger is up there now.

2324
02:10:03,080 --> 02:10:05,080
Glenn Beckard will be next.

2325
02:10:05,080 --> 02:10:07,080
Two strikes and a ball.

2326
02:10:07,080 --> 02:10:09,080
Here's the

2327
02:10:09,080 --> 02:10:11,080
pitch on the way.

2328
02:10:11,080 --> 02:10:13,080
There's a smash. Left field. The game's

2329
02:10:13,080 --> 02:10:15,080
gonna be tied. One run is in.

2330
02:10:15,080 --> 02:10:17,080
Here's another one to throw to the plate.

2331
02:10:17,080 --> 02:10:19,080
It is too late. And on the

2332
02:10:19,080 --> 02:10:21,080
throw the lead run goes to second.

2333
02:10:25,080 --> 02:10:27,080
Kessinger.

2334
02:10:27,080 --> 02:10:29,080
Line to singles.

2335
02:10:29,080 --> 02:10:31,080
Beyond Melton and B.B.

2336
02:10:31,080 --> 02:10:33,080
Richards.

2337
02:10:33,080 --> 02:10:35,080
Walt Williams made an ill advised throw

2338
02:10:35,080 --> 02:10:37,080
to the plate. But I think he was

2339
02:10:37,080 --> 02:10:39,080
throwing hoping it would be cut off.

2340
02:10:39,080 --> 02:10:41,080
It came all the way into the plate.

2341
02:10:41,080 --> 02:10:43,080
It was closer than you would think.

2342
02:10:43,080 --> 02:10:45,080
Now here's Beckard.

2343
02:10:45,080 --> 02:10:47,080
And the Cubs are within a base head

2344
02:10:47,080 --> 02:10:49,080
leading the City Series.

2345
02:10:49,080 --> 02:10:51,080
It's all tied up.

2346
02:10:51,080 --> 02:10:53,080
Four and four.

2347
02:10:55,080 --> 02:10:57,080
One out. Billy Williams will be next.

2348
02:10:59,080 --> 02:11:01,080
Kessinger delivering a timely hit.

2349
02:11:01,080 --> 02:11:03,080
The throw in the two tying run.

2350
02:11:03,080 --> 02:11:05,080
Here's the stretch now.

2351
02:11:05,080 --> 02:11:07,080
The pitch.

2352
02:11:07,080 --> 02:11:09,080
Swings and a knuckleball and he misses.

2353
02:11:09,080 --> 02:11:11,080
One strike no ball.

2354
02:11:11,080 --> 02:11:13,080
The pitch to Kessinger was a knuckleball

2355
02:11:13,080 --> 02:11:15,080
to lay flat and high.

2356
02:11:15,080 --> 02:11:17,080
And Kessinger drilled it

2357
02:11:17,080 --> 02:11:19,080
between Richards and Melton.

2358
02:11:21,080 --> 02:11:23,080
There's a pitch on the way.

2359
02:11:23,080 --> 02:11:25,080
There's a little top fly.

2360
02:11:25,080 --> 02:11:27,080
Sharp center.

2361
02:11:27,080 --> 02:11:29,080
And facing up. The runner on third holding up.

2362
02:11:29,080 --> 02:11:31,080
The throw comes to the plate.

2363
02:11:31,080 --> 02:11:33,080
Kessinger fearing

2364
02:11:33,080 --> 02:11:35,080
the ball might be caught held up.

2365
02:11:35,080 --> 02:11:37,080
And it's runners at first

2366
02:11:37,080 --> 02:11:39,080
and third and here's Billy Williams.

2367
02:11:39,080 --> 02:11:41,080
Now coming to bat.

2368
02:11:41,080 --> 02:11:43,080
Number 26.

2369
02:11:43,080 --> 02:11:45,080
Billy Williams.

2370
02:11:45,080 --> 02:11:47,080
Billy Williams could be the hero here.

2371
02:11:47,080 --> 02:11:49,080
Let's see what they can do.

2372
02:11:49,080 --> 02:11:51,080
They got Sano coming up next.

2373
02:11:55,080 --> 02:11:57,080
Runners at first and third.

2374
02:12:01,080 --> 02:12:03,080
Wilbur Wood got Pepitone

2375
02:12:03,080 --> 02:12:05,080
to pop up.

2376
02:12:05,080 --> 02:12:07,080
And got out in front of Kessinger. Two strikes and a ball.

2377
02:12:07,080 --> 02:12:09,080
But then Kessinger

2378
02:12:09,080 --> 02:12:11,080
tied it up with a base hit to left.

2379
02:12:11,080 --> 02:12:13,080
Now Becker just blew one

2380
02:12:13,080 --> 02:12:15,080
into Sharp's center. The infield has

2381
02:12:15,080 --> 02:12:17,080
to come in for the play at the plate.

2382
02:12:17,080 --> 02:12:19,080
They're bringing the outfield in too.

2383
02:12:19,080 --> 02:12:21,080
Because the long fly ends the game

2384
02:12:21,080 --> 02:12:23,080
anyhow.

2385
02:12:23,080 --> 02:12:25,080
So they bring everybody in.

2386
02:12:25,080 --> 02:12:27,080
Bring them all in.

2387
02:12:27,080 --> 02:12:29,080
Have to be close enough to have a chance on a fly ball

2388
02:12:29,080 --> 02:12:31,080
to throw a man out at the plate.

2389
02:12:33,080 --> 02:12:35,080
The White Sox led this

2390
02:12:35,080 --> 02:12:37,080
one all the way.

2391
02:12:37,080 --> 02:12:39,080
And

2392
02:12:39,080 --> 02:12:41,080
here's the strike.

2393
02:12:41,080 --> 02:12:43,080
Infield in. The pitch on the way.

2394
02:12:43,080 --> 02:12:45,080
Little bit low. Ball on.

2395
02:12:45,080 --> 02:12:47,080
Santo will be next.

2396
02:12:47,080 --> 02:12:49,080
One ball, no strike.

2397
02:12:51,080 --> 02:12:53,080
The injury to Harlan seemed

2398
02:12:53,080 --> 02:12:55,080
to be like pulling

2399
02:12:55,080 --> 02:12:57,080
a carcass out of the bottle. Here's the pitch on the way.

2400
02:12:57,080 --> 02:12:59,080
Knock them all

2401
02:12:59,080 --> 02:13:01,080
inside. Ball two.

2402
02:13:03,080 --> 02:13:05,080
This now is

2403
02:13:05,080 --> 02:13:07,080
Wilbur Wood's ball game.

2404
02:13:07,080 --> 02:13:09,080
He would be the pitcher of record.

2405
02:13:09,080 --> 02:13:11,080
Out of stretch.

2406
02:13:11,080 --> 02:13:13,080
The pitch on the way to Billy Williams.

2407
02:13:13,080 --> 02:13:15,080
All three is low.

2408
02:13:15,080 --> 02:13:17,080
And Ron Santo is next.

2409
02:13:19,080 --> 02:13:21,080
Gray ball, no strikes.

2410
02:13:21,080 --> 02:13:23,080
And Tanner

2411
02:13:23,080 --> 02:13:25,080
motions to Wood

2412
02:13:25,080 --> 02:13:27,080
to throw a knuckleball with three and oh.

2413
02:13:29,080 --> 02:13:31,080
Here's the pitch on the way.

2414
02:13:31,080 --> 02:13:33,080
Knuckleball slung foul back and out of play.

2415
02:13:33,080 --> 02:13:35,080
So he knew Williams would be

2416
02:13:35,080 --> 02:13:37,080
swinging at that three nothing pitch.

2417
02:13:37,080 --> 02:13:39,080
And he wasn't going to give him any fat

2418
02:13:39,080 --> 02:13:41,080
fastball.

2419
02:13:41,080 --> 02:13:43,080
Gray ball to the strike.

2420
02:13:43,080 --> 02:13:45,080
Wilbur Wood trying to get out of this jam.

2421
02:13:45,080 --> 02:13:47,080
The game now is

2422
02:13:47,080 --> 02:13:49,080
tied and the Cubs have a chance to win it.

2423
02:13:49,080 --> 02:13:51,080
With a runner at third and one out.

2424
02:13:51,080 --> 02:13:53,080
Another runner at first base.

2425
02:13:53,080 --> 02:13:55,080
The infield in. The outfield in.

2426
02:13:55,080 --> 02:13:57,080
Here's the stretch.

2427
02:13:57,080 --> 02:13:59,080
Here's the pitch on the way.

2428
02:13:59,080 --> 02:14:05,080
Ball four. The bases are loaded.

2429
02:14:05,080 --> 02:14:07,080
The next batter.

2430
02:14:07,080 --> 02:14:09,080
Number six.

2431
02:14:09,080 --> 02:14:11,080
Ron Santo.

2432
02:14:11,080 --> 02:14:13,080
Ron Santo the batter.

2433
02:14:13,080 --> 02:14:15,080
And they have to keep everybody in again.

2434
02:14:15,080 --> 02:14:17,080
B.B. Richard

2435
02:14:17,080 --> 02:14:19,080
is playing more

2436
02:14:19,080 --> 02:14:21,080
half way. Andrews is a little bit

2437
02:14:21,080 --> 02:14:23,080
more half way rather than

2438
02:14:23,080 --> 02:14:25,080
on the grass. If Sando hits

2439
02:14:25,080 --> 02:14:27,080
the ball hard they can still go for the double play.

2440
02:14:27,080 --> 02:14:29,080
Around short and second. The pitch.

2441
02:14:29,080 --> 02:14:31,080
Swings and a knuckle ball

2442
02:14:31,080 --> 02:14:33,080
and he misses. One strike.

2443
02:14:33,080 --> 02:14:35,080
No ball.

2444
02:14:35,080 --> 02:14:37,080
Wilbur Wood. The Cubs have the bases

2445
02:14:37,080 --> 02:14:39,080
loaded only one out. They could win it with

2446
02:14:39,080 --> 02:14:41,080
a fly ball.

2447
02:14:41,080 --> 02:14:43,080
Four four tie. Here's the stretch.

2448
02:14:43,080 --> 02:14:45,080
The pitch on the way.

2449
02:14:45,080 --> 02:14:47,080
Into the dirt. Great stop by Ed Herman.

2450
02:14:47,080 --> 02:14:49,080
A one handed take up.

2451
02:14:49,080 --> 02:14:51,080
Boy that'd be

2452
02:14:51,080 --> 02:14:53,080
a one handed that way with a wild

2453
02:14:53,080 --> 02:14:55,080
pitch.

2454
02:14:55,080 --> 02:14:57,080
The Cubs were trailing

2455
02:14:57,080 --> 02:14:59,080
four to nothing. Then four to one.

2456
02:14:59,080 --> 02:15:01,080
Then four to two. Now tied four four.

2457
02:15:01,080 --> 02:15:03,080
One ball.

2458
02:15:03,080 --> 02:15:05,080
One strike. Sando digging in.

2459
02:15:05,080 --> 02:15:07,080
Here's the pitch

2460
02:15:07,080 --> 02:15:09,080
on the way. Swarovski

2461
02:15:09,080 --> 02:15:11,080
pops up on the infield. Here's the fly

2462
02:15:11,080 --> 02:15:13,080
roll. Andrews under the ball.

2463
02:15:13,080 --> 02:15:15,080
Makes the cap. Santo

2464
02:15:15,080 --> 02:15:17,080
pops Andrews.

2465
02:15:17,080 --> 02:15:19,080
And now let's see who's going to hit it.

2466
02:15:19,080 --> 02:15:21,080
Paul Popovich.

2467
02:15:21,080 --> 02:15:23,080
Number 22.

2468
02:15:23,080 --> 02:15:25,080
Paul Popovich.

2469
02:15:25,080 --> 02:15:27,080
Paul Popovich will be the hitter.

2470
02:15:27,080 --> 02:15:29,080
Let's pause quickly. This is the White Sox

2471
02:15:29,080 --> 02:15:31,080
baseball network.

2472
02:15:31,080 --> 02:15:33,080
Come on Paul.

2473
02:15:33,080 --> 02:15:35,080
Get in.

2474
02:15:35,080 --> 02:15:37,080
Come on.

2475
02:15:37,080 --> 02:15:39,080
Come on.

2476
02:15:39,080 --> 02:15:41,080
Get in.

2477
02:15:41,080 --> 02:15:43,080
Harry Carrey

2478
02:15:43,080 --> 02:15:45,080
and Ralph Poucher.

2479
02:15:45,080 --> 02:15:47,080
In Scottsdale

2480
02:15:47,080 --> 02:15:49,080
where the Cubs have tied it up

2481
02:15:49,080 --> 02:15:51,080
have the bases loaded two out here on the bottom

2482
02:15:51,080 --> 02:15:53,080
of the ninth. The pitch. Popovich swings

2483
02:15:53,080 --> 02:15:55,080
to the knuckleball and misses.

2484
02:15:55,080 --> 02:15:57,080
Utility infielder the Cubs. Right handed batter

2485
02:15:57,080 --> 02:15:59,080
actually a switch hitter.

2486
02:15:59,080 --> 02:16:01,080
From Morgantown, West Virginia. 31

2487
02:16:01,080 --> 02:16:03,080
years old. Paul Popovich

2488
02:16:03,080 --> 02:16:05,080
hitting right handed. The infield back in normal

2489
02:16:05,080 --> 02:16:07,080
position. The pitch.

2490
02:16:07,080 --> 02:16:09,080
Knuckleball low.

2491
02:16:09,080 --> 02:16:11,080
And that evens it up for the ball on the strike.

2492
02:16:11,080 --> 02:16:13,080
Wilberwood.

2493
02:16:13,080 --> 02:16:15,080
Halaude.

2494
02:16:15,080 --> 02:16:17,080
RBI single to Kessinger.

2495
02:16:17,080 --> 02:16:19,080
But if he could get out of this with

2496
02:16:19,080 --> 02:16:21,080
a score tied he still would have done a great job.

2497
02:16:21,080 --> 02:16:23,080
1-1 pitch. Here it is.

2498
02:16:23,080 --> 02:16:25,080
High pop foul.

2499
02:16:25,080 --> 02:16:27,080
Over to the stand.

2500
02:16:27,080 --> 02:16:29,080
Melton coming over. Coming over.

2501
02:16:29,080 --> 02:16:31,080
No play.

2502
02:16:31,080 --> 02:16:33,080
I don't believe he saw the ball.

2503
02:16:35,080 --> 02:16:37,080
Because it actually

2504
02:16:37,080 --> 02:16:39,080
landed on the playing

2505
02:16:39,080 --> 02:16:41,080
side of the fence.

2506
02:16:41,080 --> 02:16:43,080
That's that high sky and it's

2507
02:16:43,080 --> 02:16:45,080
tough to see the ball come off the bat.

2508
02:16:45,080 --> 02:16:47,080
Two strikes on the ball.

2509
02:16:47,080 --> 02:16:49,080
I don't know whether he

2510
02:16:49,080 --> 02:16:51,080
had a chance. I doubt if he could have reached it

2511
02:16:51,080 --> 02:16:53,080
anyhow.

2512
02:16:53,080 --> 02:16:55,080
Now the right hand hitter

2513
02:16:55,080 --> 02:16:57,080
waiting. Two strikes on the ball.

2514
02:16:57,080 --> 02:16:59,080
Wilberwood trying to pitch out of trouble.

2515
02:16:59,080 --> 02:17:01,080
Here it is.

2516
02:17:01,080 --> 02:17:03,080
He

2517
02:17:03,080 --> 02:17:05,080
struck him out.

2518
02:17:05,080 --> 02:17:07,080
And that re-fires the side.

2519
02:17:07,080 --> 02:17:09,080
And it comes where a fly ball

2520
02:17:09,080 --> 02:17:11,080
would have won it. Couldn't get it.

2521
02:17:11,080 --> 02:17:13,080
Santo popped up. Popovich

2522
02:17:13,080 --> 02:17:15,080
struck out. However

2523
02:17:15,080 --> 02:17:17,080
they did tie it. Two runs.

2524
02:17:17,080 --> 02:17:19,080
Three hits. One error.

2525
02:17:19,080 --> 02:17:21,080
Three left. At the end

2526
02:17:21,080 --> 02:17:23,080
of nine it's all tied up.

2527
02:17:23,080 --> 02:17:25,080
The White Sox for the Cubs for

2528
02:17:25,080 --> 02:17:27,080
Two runs, three hits, one error, three

2529
02:17:27,080 --> 02:17:29,080
minutes on base.

2530
02:17:29,080 --> 02:17:31,080
The end of nine it

2531
02:17:31,080 --> 02:17:33,080
exceeds the Chicago Cubs for

2532
02:17:33,080 --> 02:17:35,080
the Chicago White Sox for

2533
02:17:35,080 --> 02:17:37,080
That Keely

2534
02:17:37,080 --> 02:17:43,080
Could get me out I don't think.

2535
02:17:43,080 --> 02:17:47,080
First extra in the game we see.

2536
02:17:55,080 --> 02:17:57,080
Damn he was ahead of that.

2537
02:17:57,080 --> 02:17:59,080
Down 15 for the

2538
02:17:59,080 --> 02:18:01,080
Cubs. Number 52

2539
02:18:01,080 --> 02:18:07,080
Bill Bottoms.

2540
02:18:31,080 --> 02:18:33,080
We're going to the

2541
02:18:33,080 --> 02:18:35,080
tenth inning and Bill Bottoms from UCLA

2542
02:18:35,080 --> 02:18:37,080
a big strong hard-throwing

2543
02:18:37,080 --> 02:18:39,080
right-hander will be the Cubs fourth

2544
02:18:39,080 --> 02:18:41,080
pitcher.

2545
02:18:41,080 --> 02:18:43,080
Mill Pappas started and went four innings

2546
02:18:43,080 --> 02:18:45,080
allowed four hits and three runs.

2547
02:18:45,080 --> 02:18:47,080
Ken Holzman pitched the next four, allowed

2548
02:18:47,080 --> 02:18:49,080
four hits and one run. Jim Colburn

2549
02:18:49,080 --> 02:18:51,080
worked one inning, allowed one hit and no run.

2550
02:18:51,080 --> 02:18:53,080
And now Bill Bottoms is not even

2551
02:18:53,080 --> 02:18:55,080
on the roster. Comes out.

2552
02:18:55,080 --> 02:18:57,080
He pitched it here around last

2553
02:18:57,080 --> 02:18:59,080
year where he won three, lost three,

2554
02:18:59,080 --> 02:19:01,080
six, four, 210 pounds.

2555
02:19:01,080 --> 02:19:03,080
Right-hander

2556
02:19:03,080 --> 02:19:05,080
Bonham will be the new

2557
02:19:05,080 --> 02:19:07,080
pitcher. Frank Andrews leads it off

2558
02:19:07,080 --> 02:19:09,080
against him. The score

2559
02:19:09,080 --> 02:19:11,080
tied four and four.

2560
02:19:11,080 --> 02:19:13,080
The

2561
02:19:13,080 --> 02:19:15,080
White Sox had a four to nothing lead going

2562
02:19:15,080 --> 02:19:17,080
into the seventh.

2563
02:19:19,080 --> 02:19:21,080
But the

2564
02:19:21,080 --> 02:19:23,080
Cubs took to Steve Keely like

2565
02:19:23,080 --> 02:19:25,080
they had been waiting for him for a month.

2566
02:19:25,080 --> 02:19:27,080
Here's the pitch

2567
02:19:27,080 --> 02:19:29,080
Andrews swings at the curveball

2568
02:19:29,080 --> 02:19:31,080
and he misses. One strike and

2569
02:19:31,080 --> 02:19:33,080
no ball.

2570
02:19:33,080 --> 02:19:35,080
Nobody on, nobody out.

2571
02:19:35,080 --> 02:19:37,080
Ball game in the top

2572
02:19:37,080 --> 02:19:39,080
of the tenth.

2573
02:19:39,080 --> 02:19:41,080
Now the pitch by

2574
02:19:41,080 --> 02:19:43,080
the young right-hander. Swung and popped up

2575
02:19:43,080 --> 02:19:45,080
on the infield. That'll be easy.

2576
02:19:45,080 --> 02:19:47,080
Santo under the ball, makes

2577
02:19:47,080 --> 02:19:49,080
the catch. Andrews

2578
02:19:49,080 --> 02:19:51,080
fouls to Santo.

2579
02:19:51,080 --> 02:19:53,080
Here now is Melton.

2580
02:19:53,080 --> 02:19:55,080
He's three out of four today.

2581
02:19:55,080 --> 02:19:57,080
The next batter, number 14,

2582
02:19:57,080 --> 02:19:59,080
Bill Melton, third base. He's accounted

2583
02:19:59,080 --> 02:20:01,080
for three runs

2584
02:20:01,080 --> 02:20:03,080
himself. Committed to

2585
02:20:03,080 --> 02:20:05,080
cross the air in the ninth inning

2586
02:20:05,080 --> 02:20:07,080
as the Cubs came on to tie it up.

2587
02:20:07,080 --> 02:20:09,080
Here's the pitch.

2588
02:20:09,080 --> 02:20:11,080
Strike in there, sidearm

2589
02:20:11,080 --> 02:20:13,080
curve at the knee.

2590
02:20:13,080 --> 02:20:15,080
One strike, no balls. One man

2591
02:20:15,080 --> 02:20:17,080
out. Game tied

2592
02:20:17,080 --> 02:20:19,080
four, four in the tenth.

2593
02:20:19,080 --> 02:20:21,080
Here's Bonham

2594
02:20:21,080 --> 02:20:23,080
delivering.

2595
02:20:23,080 --> 02:20:25,080
Sidearm curve outside. Boy, this is

2596
02:20:25,080 --> 02:20:27,080
a good-looking young pitcher at this bottom.

2597
02:20:27,080 --> 02:20:29,080
Only one year of professional baseball

2598
02:20:29,080 --> 02:20:31,080
experience. But he's

2599
02:20:31,080 --> 02:20:33,080
around that plate. He's tall, rangy

2600
02:20:33,080 --> 02:20:35,080
and can pump

2601
02:20:35,080 --> 02:20:37,080
that ball. One ball, one strike

2602
02:20:37,080 --> 02:20:39,080
to delivery now.

2603
02:20:39,080 --> 02:20:41,080
Curveball outside. Two

2604
02:20:41,080 --> 02:20:43,080
balls and a strike.

2605
02:20:43,080 --> 02:20:45,080
One gone.

2606
02:20:45,080 --> 02:20:47,080
A little added treat here on his final day of

2607
02:20:47,080 --> 02:20:49,080
spring training, an extra inning

2608
02:20:49,080 --> 02:20:51,080
game.

2609
02:20:51,080 --> 02:20:53,080
Extra curricular activity.

2610
02:20:53,080 --> 02:20:55,080
Two balls and a strike.

2611
02:20:55,080 --> 02:20:57,080
The pitch now.

2612
02:20:57,080 --> 02:20:59,080
Outside,

2613
02:20:59,080 --> 02:21:01,080
ball three. Carlos

2614
02:21:01,080 --> 02:21:03,080
May will be next.

2615
02:21:03,080 --> 02:21:05,080
The white side.

2616
02:21:05,080 --> 02:21:07,080
Trying to go out in front again.

2617
02:21:07,080 --> 02:21:09,080
Three balls,

2618
02:21:09,080 --> 02:21:11,080
one strike.

2619
02:21:11,080 --> 02:21:13,080
Now the pitch on the way.

2620
02:21:13,080 --> 02:21:15,080
Strike. He curved it with

2621
02:21:15,080 --> 02:21:17,080
three and one and got it in there.

2622
02:21:17,080 --> 02:21:19,080
And that's

2623
02:21:19,080 --> 02:21:21,080
something we notice all spring long.

2624
02:21:21,080 --> 02:21:23,080
These young pitchers

2625
02:21:23,080 --> 02:21:25,080
no longer try to throw the fastball by you

2626
02:21:25,080 --> 02:21:27,080
when they're behind. They go to a breaking

2627
02:21:27,080 --> 02:21:29,080
ball and get it over. Three, two, pitch to

2628
02:21:29,080 --> 02:21:31,080
Melton. Bouncing ball to the second

2629
02:21:31,080 --> 02:21:33,080
baseman. He, oh, bad hop.

2630
02:21:33,080 --> 02:21:35,080
His beckered on the side of the head. Goes

2631
02:21:35,080 --> 02:21:37,080
in the right center. Here's Melton playing for

2632
02:21:37,080 --> 02:21:39,080
a double to throw. He goes in standing

2633
02:21:39,080 --> 02:21:41,080
up. Now let's see if

2634
02:21:41,080 --> 02:21:43,080
Becker is hurt.

2635
02:21:43,080 --> 02:21:45,080
Melton hit a ground ball to Becker

2636
02:21:45,080 --> 02:21:47,080
that took a bad hop off the side of his head

2637
02:21:47,080 --> 02:21:49,080
and rolled in the right center for a double.

2638
02:21:51,080 --> 02:21:53,080
Becker has got his cap off feeling

2639
02:21:53,080 --> 02:21:55,080
to see if he's got a bump on his head.

2640
02:21:57,080 --> 02:21:59,080
Here's Carlos May, tripled in a run

2641
02:21:59,080 --> 02:22:01,080
in the second inning.

2642
02:22:01,080 --> 02:22:03,080
Melton has had two doubles or homers in a single.

2643
02:22:03,080 --> 02:22:05,080
He had two doubles in a single yesterday.

2644
02:22:12,080 --> 02:22:14,080
I would imagine Melton is a guy

2645
02:22:14,080 --> 02:22:16,080
that, they're going to walk Carlos

2646
02:22:16,080 --> 02:22:18,080
May intentionally

2647
02:22:18,080 --> 02:22:20,080
to get to Rick Ryker.

2648
02:22:20,080 --> 02:22:22,080
Ryker the right-handed batter

2649
02:22:24,080 --> 02:22:26,080
hoping that they can get the double play

2650
02:22:26,080 --> 02:22:28,080
out of him.

2651
02:22:28,080 --> 02:22:30,080
I would imagine, I started to say that

2652
02:22:30,080 --> 02:22:32,080
when the season starts

2653
02:22:32,080 --> 02:22:34,080
in late innings and

2654
02:22:34,080 --> 02:22:36,080
close ball games, if the White Sox are ahead

2655
02:22:36,080 --> 02:22:38,080
they will substitute

2656
02:22:38,080 --> 02:22:40,080
somebody like Morales

2657
02:22:40,080 --> 02:22:44,080
for defensive purposes around third base.

2658
02:22:44,080 --> 02:22:46,080
Because all that Melton does

2659
02:22:46,080 --> 02:22:48,080
a fine job,

2660
02:22:48,080 --> 02:22:50,080
he isn't quite as good a fielder as he is a hitter

2661
02:22:50,080 --> 02:22:52,080
and he's a, you got to have him in your lineup

2662
02:22:52,080 --> 02:22:54,080
because he can really rock that ball.

2663
02:22:54,080 --> 02:22:56,080
Rick Ryker up there,

2664
02:22:56,080 --> 02:22:58,080
runners at first and second, he doubled in a run

2665
02:22:58,080 --> 02:23:00,080
in the second inning, he's one out of four.

2666
02:23:04,080 --> 02:23:06,080
Game tied, 4-4.

2667
02:23:06,080 --> 02:23:08,080
Here's Bill Bonham

2668
02:23:08,080 --> 02:23:10,080
getting set.

2669
02:23:10,080 --> 02:23:12,080
The pitch to Ryker, here it is.

2670
02:23:12,080 --> 02:23:14,080
Sidearm curve in the

2671
02:23:14,080 --> 02:23:16,080
rebellious strike call.

2672
02:23:16,080 --> 02:23:18,080
One strike, no ball, Ryker takes a look

2673
02:23:18,080 --> 02:23:20,080
at Joe Lynette,

2674
02:23:20,080 --> 02:23:22,080
coaching a third.

2675
02:23:22,080 --> 02:23:24,080
The infield, straight away

2676
02:23:24,080 --> 02:23:26,080
hoping for the ground ball.

2677
02:23:26,080 --> 02:23:28,080
Ryker digging in, waves that bat around.

2678
02:23:28,080 --> 02:23:30,080
And now the pitch.

2679
02:23:30,080 --> 02:23:32,080
Here it is.

2680
02:23:32,080 --> 02:23:34,080
He didn't mean to swing it over,

2681
02:23:34,080 --> 02:23:36,080
here's the pitcher who'll throw him out at first.

2682
02:23:36,080 --> 02:23:38,080
Ryker trying to stop

2683
02:23:38,080 --> 02:23:40,080
his swing and tap one right back to the mound.

2684
02:23:40,080 --> 02:23:42,080
The runners advance

2685
02:23:42,080 --> 02:23:44,080
and it's all up to Rich McKinney.

2686
02:23:44,080 --> 02:23:46,080
Now we're going to have a pinch hitter, Lee May.

2687
02:23:46,080 --> 02:23:48,080
With runners at second and third,

2688
02:23:48,080 --> 02:23:50,080
let's see how the Cubs counter here.

2689
02:23:50,080 --> 02:23:52,080
They could walk May intentionally, but then

2690
02:23:52,080 --> 02:23:54,080
Ed Herman.

2691
02:23:54,080 --> 02:23:56,080
Lee May.

2692
02:23:56,080 --> 02:23:58,080
Lee May.

2693
02:23:58,080 --> 02:24:00,080
Who is hitting 5-29

2694
02:24:00,080 --> 02:24:02,080
with 9 out of 17.

2695
02:24:02,080 --> 02:24:04,080
One double, one triple, one homer,

2696
02:24:04,080 --> 02:24:06,080
four RBI.

2697
02:24:06,080 --> 02:24:08,080
Comes up as a pinch hitter with a chance to put the

2698
02:24:08,080 --> 02:24:10,080
White Sox out in front.

2699
02:24:10,080 --> 02:24:12,080
Bill Bonham, young right-hander.

2700
02:24:14,080 --> 02:24:16,080
Looks down, has his sign.

2701
02:24:16,080 --> 02:24:18,080
The pitch to Lee May.

2702
02:24:18,080 --> 02:24:20,080
Swings and he foul-tips it, strike one.

2703
02:24:20,080 --> 02:24:22,080
One strike, no balls.

2704
02:24:22,080 --> 02:24:24,080
Ed Herman next.

2705
02:24:24,080 --> 02:24:26,080
So they're pitching to May,

2706
02:24:26,080 --> 02:24:28,080
even though first base is open.

2707
02:24:28,080 --> 02:24:30,080
They'd rather pitch to May

2708
02:24:30,080 --> 02:24:32,080
than to Herman, apparently.

2709
02:24:34,080 --> 02:24:36,080
The outfield straight away and deep.

2710
02:24:36,080 --> 02:24:38,080
Lee May digs in.

2711
02:24:38,080 --> 02:24:40,080
Here's the windup by Bonham,

2712
02:24:40,080 --> 02:24:42,080
the pitch to the left-hand batter.

2713
02:24:42,080 --> 02:24:44,080
Low curveball outside.

2714
02:24:44,080 --> 02:24:46,080
One ball, one strike.

2715
02:24:46,080 --> 02:24:48,080
Melting the runner at third.

2716
02:24:48,080 --> 02:24:50,080
Carlos May at second.

2717
02:24:50,080 --> 02:24:52,080
Two men are gone.

2718
02:24:52,080 --> 02:24:54,080
Tied up 4-4. We're in the tenth.

2719
02:24:56,080 --> 02:24:58,080
Now Bill Bonham ready.

2720
02:24:58,080 --> 02:25:00,080
Here's the pitch.

2721
02:25:00,080 --> 02:25:02,080
Ground ball to the first baseman should be out of the inning.

2722
02:25:02,080 --> 02:25:04,080
Pepitone has it, steps on the bag.

2723
02:25:04,080 --> 02:25:06,080
And the inning is over.

2724
02:25:06,080 --> 02:25:08,080
May grounded to Pepitone.

2725
02:25:08,080 --> 02:25:10,080
Adds one hit.

2726
02:25:10,080 --> 02:25:12,080
Two left.

2727
02:25:12,080 --> 02:25:14,080
We're going to the bottom of the tenth tied 4-4.

2728
02:25:20,080 --> 02:25:22,080
Steep.

2729
02:25:22,080 --> 02:25:26,080
Yeah, we could have been at the pool.

2730
02:25:36,080 --> 02:25:38,080
Now playing right field,

2731
02:25:38,080 --> 02:25:40,080
moving over from left is number three,

2732
02:25:40,080 --> 02:25:42,080
Walt Williams.

2733
02:25:42,080 --> 02:25:44,080
Going to left field is number 48,

2734
02:25:44,080 --> 02:25:46,080
Rick Riker. He was playing at center.

2735
02:25:46,080 --> 02:25:48,080
Now playing right field.

2736
02:25:48,080 --> 02:25:50,080
He was playing at center.

2737
02:25:50,080 --> 02:25:52,080
He was playing at center.

2738
02:25:52,080 --> 02:25:54,080
This is Stroud.

2739
02:25:58,080 --> 02:26:00,080
The new center fielder,

2740
02:26:00,080 --> 02:26:02,080
number six, Ed Stroud.

2741
02:26:02,080 --> 02:26:04,080
Speaking of pitchers, this guy was two of us.

2742
02:26:04,080 --> 02:26:06,080
Speaking of pitchers, this guy was two of us.

2743
02:26:22,080 --> 02:26:24,080
We're going to the bottom of the tenth.

2744
02:26:24,080 --> 02:26:26,080
Ed Stroud comes in the ball game now

2745
02:26:26,080 --> 02:26:28,080
for the White Sox to play center field.

2746
02:26:28,080 --> 02:26:30,080
Rick Riker moves from center field to left.

2747
02:26:30,080 --> 02:26:32,080
Walt Williams moves from left field to right field.

2748
02:26:36,080 --> 02:26:38,080
And leading off here for the Cubs

2749
02:26:38,080 --> 02:26:40,080
will be Johnny Callison

2750
02:26:40,080 --> 02:26:42,080
against the knuckleballing left-hander, Wilbur Wood.

2751
02:26:48,080 --> 02:26:50,080
Don Kessinger, cup baby,

2752
02:26:50,080 --> 02:26:52,080
comes in the ball game.

2753
02:26:52,080 --> 02:26:54,080
Two runs single in the bottom of the ninth

2754
02:26:54,080 --> 02:27:00,080
to tie it up.

2755
02:27:00,080 --> 02:27:02,080
So here's Callison. It'll be Callison,

2756
02:27:02,080 --> 02:27:04,080
Ortiz, and Rudolph

2757
02:27:04,080 --> 02:27:06,080
here in the tenth.

2758
02:27:06,080 --> 02:27:08,080
Tied up 4-4, playing for the

2759
02:27:08,080 --> 02:27:10,080
baseball championship for Chicago,

2760
02:27:10,080 --> 02:27:12,080
you might say. Here's the pitch.

2761
02:27:12,080 --> 02:27:14,080
Knuckleball in there, a strike is called.

2762
02:27:14,080 --> 02:27:16,080
One strike, no ball.

2763
02:27:16,080 --> 02:27:18,080
Johnny Callison.

2764
02:27:18,080 --> 02:27:20,080
He's two out of four today.

2765
02:27:20,080 --> 02:27:22,080
Wilbur Wood gets set.

2766
02:27:22,080 --> 02:27:24,080
Now the left-hander

2767
02:27:24,080 --> 02:27:26,080
delivers.

2768
02:27:26,080 --> 02:27:28,080
The pitch on the way.

2769
02:27:28,080 --> 02:27:30,080
Knuckleball low and outside.

2770
02:27:30,080 --> 02:27:32,080
That evens out a ball and a strike.

2771
02:27:34,080 --> 02:27:36,080
Hope you'll stay with us for the postgame show

2772
02:27:36,080 --> 02:27:38,080
which will feature Rick Talley.

2773
02:27:38,080 --> 02:27:40,080
He's the sports editor of the Chicago today.

2774
02:27:40,080 --> 02:27:42,080
Here's the pitch. Little tap, right back to Wilbur.

2775
02:27:42,080 --> 02:27:44,080
He's got it. Should be an easy out.

2776
02:27:44,080 --> 02:27:46,080
Rips the first, one gone.

2777
02:27:46,080 --> 02:27:48,080
Callison tapped back to Wilbur Wood.

2778
02:27:48,080 --> 02:27:50,080
That will bring up Jose Ortiz

2779
02:27:50,080 --> 02:27:52,080
who started that night playing with a little blue

2780
02:27:52,080 --> 02:27:54,080
single that dropped in strike center.

2781
02:27:54,080 --> 02:27:56,080
An error by Melton followed

2782
02:27:56,080 --> 02:27:58,080
which really set it up.

2783
02:27:58,080 --> 02:28:00,080
And then after Wilbur Wood had gotten

2784
02:28:00,080 --> 02:28:02,080
pepper-toed,

2785
02:28:02,080 --> 02:28:04,080
Kessinger, behind in the count,

2786
02:28:04,080 --> 02:28:06,080
two strikes and a ball,

2787
02:28:06,080 --> 02:28:08,080
single the left to tie it up.

2788
02:28:08,080 --> 02:28:10,080
Wood then had to get out of a jam.

2789
02:28:10,080 --> 02:28:12,080
He allowed a single to Beckett

2790
02:28:12,080 --> 02:28:14,080
and a base on balls to Williams to fill it up.

2791
02:28:14,080 --> 02:28:16,080
But he got the ball,

2792
02:28:16,080 --> 02:28:18,080
fill it up, fill him up.

2793
02:28:18,080 --> 02:28:20,080
But he got Santo

2794
02:28:20,080 --> 02:28:22,080
and then Popovich to get out of the inning.

2795
02:28:22,080 --> 02:28:24,080
The pitch to Ortiz.

2796
02:28:24,080 --> 02:28:26,080
Bouncing ball, towards short.

2797
02:28:26,080 --> 02:28:28,080
B.B. Richard charges. There's a throw.

2798
02:28:28,080 --> 02:28:30,080
He is out.

2799
02:28:30,080 --> 02:28:32,080
He threw it in the dirt but Carlos came up with it.

2800
02:28:36,080 --> 02:28:38,080
The batter, number 15,

2801
02:28:38,080 --> 02:28:40,080
Ken Rudolph, catcher.

2802
02:28:42,080 --> 02:28:44,080
As down-emph as relayed to us,

2803
02:28:44,080 --> 02:28:46,080
there's no fracture in Joe Harlan's knee.

2804
02:28:46,080 --> 02:28:48,080
That's positive news.

2805
02:28:48,080 --> 02:28:50,080
He has his knee wrapped up

2806
02:28:50,080 --> 02:28:52,080
and he'll accompany the Cubs to Chicago

2807
02:28:52,080 --> 02:28:54,080
this afternoon.

2808
02:28:54,080 --> 02:28:56,080
Here's Rudolph, the pitch.

2809
02:28:56,080 --> 02:28:58,080
Knuckleball outside.

2810
02:28:58,080 --> 02:29:00,080
One ball, no strikes, two out, nobody on.

2811
02:29:00,080 --> 02:29:02,080
Ed Herman will lead it off

2812
02:29:02,080 --> 02:29:04,080
for the White Sox in the 11.

2813
02:29:04,080 --> 02:29:06,080
If we can

2814
02:29:06,080 --> 02:29:08,080
go that far, here's the pitch.

2815
02:29:08,080 --> 02:29:10,080
Bouncing ball to Richard. Come on in.

2816
02:29:10,080 --> 02:29:12,080
Lee, he's got it. There's the peg.

2817
02:29:12,080 --> 02:29:14,080
He's high but he is out.

2818
02:29:14,080 --> 02:29:16,080
Ed Richard's got one of the most powerful

2819
02:29:16,080 --> 02:29:18,080
but he still has

2820
02:29:18,080 --> 02:29:20,080
an erratic arm.

2821
02:29:20,080 --> 02:29:22,080
Now that one he almost threw over Carlos May's head.

2822
02:29:22,080 --> 02:29:24,080
Carlos is grinning.

2823
02:29:24,080 --> 02:29:26,080
He had a leap into the air, come down

2824
02:29:26,080 --> 02:29:28,080
and stab at the bag. The throw before he had a scoop

2825
02:29:28,080 --> 02:29:30,080
out of the dirt. And the same men

2826
02:29:30,080 --> 02:29:32,080
threw both of them. So it's 1-2-3.

2827
02:29:32,080 --> 02:29:34,080
Wilbur Wood breezed through the tenth.

2828
02:29:34,080 --> 02:29:36,080
And at the end of tenth, it's still tied.

2829
02:29:36,080 --> 02:29:42,080
White Sox 4, Cubs 4.

2830
02:29:42,080 --> 02:29:44,080
Two days left.

2831
02:29:44,080 --> 02:29:46,080
Two days left.

2832
02:29:46,080 --> 02:29:48,080
Two days left.

2833
02:29:48,080 --> 02:29:50,080
Two days left.

2834
02:29:50,080 --> 02:29:52,080
We certainly hope you enjoyed today's ball game.

2835
02:29:52,080 --> 02:29:54,080
We want to remind you

2836
02:29:54,080 --> 02:29:56,080
that the souvenir available

2837
02:29:56,080 --> 02:29:58,080
in front of the grandstand

2838
02:29:58,080 --> 02:30:00,080
is the

2839
02:30:00,080 --> 02:30:02,080
Anniversary Souvenir Book

2840
02:30:02,080 --> 02:30:04,080
for the

2841
02:30:04,080 --> 02:30:06,080
silver anniversary

2842
02:30:06,080 --> 02:30:08,080
of the Cactus League. The entire story of

2843
02:30:08,080 --> 02:30:10,080
the Cactus League in this book was stories of all

2844
02:30:10,080 --> 02:30:12,080
the teams that have played out here.

2845
02:30:12,080 --> 02:30:14,080
We think you'll really enjoy it and that's

2846
02:30:14,080 --> 02:30:16,080
for sale for only one dollar.

2847
02:30:18,080 --> 02:30:20,080
Do we have anything on bottom?

2848
02:30:20,080 --> 02:30:22,080
No, nothing.

2849
02:30:22,080 --> 02:30:24,080
Ask a flight attendant.

2850
02:30:24,080 --> 02:30:26,080
Let him see if he's got a little more silver.

2851
02:30:26,080 --> 02:30:28,080
Yeah, he's a...I think he is.

2852
02:30:30,080 --> 02:30:32,080
I think there's something

2853
02:30:32,080 --> 02:30:34,080
on top of him.

2854
02:30:34,080 --> 02:30:36,080
No, the little one.

2855
02:30:36,080 --> 02:30:38,080
No, there's nothing in there.

2856
02:30:42,080 --> 02:30:44,080
There's something in the back there.

2857
02:30:44,080 --> 02:30:46,080
Not much.

2858
02:30:46,080 --> 02:30:48,080
We're going to the eleventh inning now

2859
02:30:48,080 --> 02:30:50,080
and Ed Herman is going to lead it all.

2860
02:30:50,080 --> 02:30:52,080
He's got one out of three facing Bill Bonham.

2861
02:30:52,080 --> 02:30:54,080
Ed Herman leading it all.

2862
02:30:54,080 --> 02:30:56,080
Wilbur Wood due to be next.

2863
02:30:58,080 --> 02:31:00,080
The ball game in the eleventh.

2864
02:31:00,080 --> 02:31:02,080
Five, four and four.

2865
02:31:02,080 --> 02:31:04,080
We'd have been around the Executive House

2866
02:31:04,080 --> 02:31:06,080
pool by now if Kessinger hadn't gotten

2867
02:31:06,080 --> 02:31:08,080
a base hit to tie it up.

2868
02:31:08,080 --> 02:31:10,080
That's baseball for you.

2869
02:31:12,080 --> 02:31:14,080
Ed Herman

2870
02:31:14,080 --> 02:31:16,080
digging in.

2871
02:31:20,080 --> 02:31:22,080
Young Bill Bonham, right-hander delivers.

2872
02:31:22,080 --> 02:31:24,080
Herman takes a fastball high.

2873
02:31:24,080 --> 02:31:26,080
One ball, no strikes. Herman hit

2874
02:31:26,080 --> 02:31:28,080
19 homers last season for the White Sox.

2875
02:31:28,080 --> 02:31:30,080
Hasn't hit one this spring as yet.

2876
02:31:32,080 --> 02:31:34,080
Now the line, the pitch.

2877
02:31:34,080 --> 02:31:36,080
Popped up.

2878
02:31:36,080 --> 02:31:38,080
Santo's going to have a play

2879
02:31:38,080 --> 02:31:40,080
over near the stands. He's got room now

2880
02:31:40,080 --> 02:31:42,080
and he's there. Hey!

2881
02:31:42,080 --> 02:31:44,080
Ball's off balance, holds on to the ball.

2882
02:31:44,080 --> 02:31:46,080
Herman foul to Santo.

2883
02:31:46,080 --> 02:31:48,080
One out.

2884
02:31:48,080 --> 02:31:50,080
Wilbur Wood

2885
02:31:50,080 --> 02:31:52,080
will hit for himself.

2886
02:31:54,080 --> 02:31:56,080
He'll bounce right-handed, he pitches left-handed.

2887
02:31:56,080 --> 02:31:58,080
Looking ahead to the Cubs oven.

2888
02:32:00,080 --> 02:32:02,080
They'll have Pemperton, Kessinger and Beckard coming up.

2889
02:32:04,080 --> 02:32:06,080
One out, nobody on. Chuck Tanner

2890
02:32:06,080 --> 02:32:08,080
and Leo DeRosha are talking.

2891
02:32:08,080 --> 02:32:10,080
Again,

2892
02:32:10,080 --> 02:32:12,080
could be discussing how long

2893
02:32:12,080 --> 02:32:14,080
whether there's any

2894
02:32:14,080 --> 02:32:16,080
deadline on this game

2895
02:32:16,080 --> 02:32:18,080
as a result of playing connections.

2896
02:32:18,080 --> 02:32:20,080
One out,

2897
02:32:20,080 --> 02:32:22,080
nobody on. The pitch to

2898
02:32:22,080 --> 02:32:24,080
Wilbur Wood. Fastball

2899
02:32:24,080 --> 02:32:26,080
inside.

2900
02:32:26,080 --> 02:32:28,080
Wood batting right-handed.

2901
02:32:28,080 --> 02:32:30,080
One away.

2902
02:32:30,080 --> 02:32:32,080
We're in the 11th.

2903
02:32:32,080 --> 02:32:34,080
Now the signal

2904
02:32:34,080 --> 02:32:36,080
given.

2905
02:32:38,080 --> 02:32:40,080
Wilbur Wood waiting.

2906
02:32:40,080 --> 02:32:42,080
Bonham's pit. Strike call.

2907
02:32:42,080 --> 02:32:44,080
This kid pumps that ball hard.

2908
02:32:44,080 --> 02:32:46,080
Two balls and a strike.

2909
02:32:46,080 --> 02:32:48,080
One man out.

2910
02:32:48,080 --> 02:32:50,080
Bonham has been

2911
02:32:50,080 --> 02:32:52,080
he wasn't, he isn't

2912
02:32:52,080 --> 02:32:54,080
even on the Cubs roster.

2913
02:32:54,080 --> 02:32:56,080
But they haven't cut him yet.

2914
02:32:56,080 --> 02:32:58,080
Here's the pitch. Strike call.

2915
02:32:58,080 --> 02:33:00,080
Two balls, two strikes.

2916
02:33:00,080 --> 02:33:02,080
E.B. Richard will be next.

2917
02:33:02,080 --> 02:33:04,080
Followed by Wall Williams.

2918
02:33:04,080 --> 02:33:06,080
They can keep it going.

2919
02:33:06,080 --> 02:33:08,080
Now to wind up the

2920
02:33:08,080 --> 02:33:10,080
2-2 pitch on the way.

2921
02:33:10,080 --> 02:33:12,080
He struck him out on a curveball.

2922
02:33:14,080 --> 02:33:16,080
Wood is caught out on strikes

2923
02:33:16,080 --> 02:33:18,080
and here is Richard. He's had one hit today.

2924
02:33:18,080 --> 02:33:20,080
One out of four.

2925
02:33:20,080 --> 02:33:22,080
The next batter, number nine, Lee Richard.

2926
02:33:22,080 --> 02:33:24,080
The Cubs made some cuts today.

2927
02:33:24,080 --> 02:33:26,080
They haven't given us the information.

2928
02:33:26,080 --> 02:33:28,080
And I know Fuzau and Danny Breeden

2929
02:33:28,080 --> 02:33:30,080
were two of the four or five boys' Cubs.

2930
02:33:30,080 --> 02:33:32,080
They were still

2931
02:33:32,080 --> 02:33:34,080
about five men over. Here's the pitch on the way

2932
02:33:34,080 --> 02:33:36,080
now. Richard takes a curveball

2933
02:33:36,080 --> 02:33:38,080
outside.

2934
02:33:38,080 --> 02:33:40,080
E.B. Richard, the leadoff

2935
02:33:40,080 --> 02:33:42,080
man. Wall Williams next. Score

2936
02:33:42,080 --> 02:33:44,080
tied 4-4.

2937
02:33:44,080 --> 02:33:46,080
And every time

2938
02:33:46,080 --> 02:33:48,080
the Cubs hold the White Sox in

2939
02:33:48,080 --> 02:33:50,080
the next innings, the better

2940
02:33:50,080 --> 02:33:52,080
their chances of winning the ball again.

2941
02:33:52,080 --> 02:33:54,080
Here's Richard following the ball

2942
02:33:54,080 --> 02:33:56,080
back to the screen. It bounces back

2943
02:33:56,080 --> 02:33:58,080
to where Wall Williams

2944
02:33:58,080 --> 02:34:00,080
is standing in the on-deck circle and

2945
02:34:00,080 --> 02:34:02,080
he kind of plays high-lie with

2946
02:34:02,080 --> 02:34:04,080
his bat. Juggles

2947
02:34:04,080 --> 02:34:06,080
the ball on the end of the bat and then

2948
02:34:06,080 --> 02:34:08,080
catches it. One-one pitch.

2949
02:34:08,080 --> 02:34:10,080
Low fastball.

2950
02:34:10,080 --> 02:34:12,080
Two balls

2951
02:34:12,080 --> 02:34:14,080
in a strike. And should B.B. get on,

2952
02:34:14,080 --> 02:34:16,080
you can expect him to steal. He stole a base

2953
02:34:16,080 --> 02:34:18,080
on the fifth.

2954
02:34:20,080 --> 02:34:22,080
Two balls in a strike. Now the

2955
02:34:22,080 --> 02:34:24,080
pitch. Swung and looped off the

2956
02:34:24,080 --> 02:34:26,080
end of the bat foul. That

2957
02:34:26,080 --> 02:34:28,080
evens it. Two balls, two strikes.

2958
02:34:28,080 --> 02:34:30,080
Two out.

2959
02:34:30,080 --> 02:34:32,080
Game tied

2960
02:34:32,080 --> 02:34:34,080
4-4.

2961
02:34:34,080 --> 02:34:36,080
Would it be something here if this wound up

2962
02:34:36,080 --> 02:34:38,080
in a tie and they had to call it off because of

2963
02:34:38,080 --> 02:34:40,080
their playing connections?

2964
02:34:40,080 --> 02:34:42,080
From a public relations standpoint,

2965
02:34:42,080 --> 02:34:44,080
it would be perfect. Here's the pitch

2966
02:34:44,080 --> 02:34:46,080
outside ball three.

2967
02:34:46,080 --> 02:34:48,080
I think if I were them, I would

2968
02:34:48,080 --> 02:34:50,080
do just that.

2969
02:34:50,080 --> 02:34:52,080
And then the

2970
02:34:52,080 --> 02:34:54,080
fans of the White Sox

2971
02:34:54,080 --> 02:34:56,080
could be satisfied and the fans of the Cubs would

2972
02:34:56,080 --> 02:34:58,080
be happy. Neither team would yet

2973
02:34:58,080 --> 02:35:00,080
be the city champion.

2974
02:35:00,080 --> 02:35:02,080
Here's the pitch.

2975
02:35:02,080 --> 02:35:04,080
Swung on on a looping liner in the center of base

2976
02:35:04,080 --> 02:35:06,080
F. B.B. rounds first base.

2977
02:35:06,080 --> 02:35:08,080
Let's watch him. Goes halfway to second.

2978
02:35:08,080 --> 02:35:10,080
Comes back.

2979
02:35:10,080 --> 02:35:12,080
So Richard gets his second hitter.

2980
02:35:12,080 --> 02:35:14,080
And here's Walt

2981
02:35:14,080 --> 02:35:16,080
Williams. He's been a hero in

2982
02:35:16,080 --> 02:35:18,080
a lot of games during spring training.

2983
02:35:18,080 --> 02:35:20,080
Can he do it again?

2984
02:35:20,080 --> 02:35:22,080
Williams has shifted to right field.

2985
02:35:22,080 --> 02:35:24,080
Williams drove in a run in the

2986
02:35:24,080 --> 02:35:26,080
seventh.

2987
02:35:28,080 --> 02:35:30,080
With a base hit to right.

2988
02:35:32,080 --> 02:35:34,080
Steps into the batter's box.

2989
02:35:34,080 --> 02:35:36,080
Bill Bonham, a sidearm right-handed

2990
02:35:36,080 --> 02:35:38,080
with good stuff.

2991
02:35:38,080 --> 02:35:40,080
B.B.

2992
02:35:40,080 --> 02:35:42,080
Richard taking a lead off first base.

2993
02:35:42,080 --> 02:35:44,080
Here's the stretch.

2994
02:35:44,080 --> 02:35:46,080
Here's the pitch. There he goes.

2995
02:35:46,080 --> 02:35:48,080
Wild pitch. He might wind up at third.

2996
02:35:48,080 --> 02:35:50,080
He's sliding though, not knowing that the ball got away.

2997
02:35:50,080 --> 02:35:52,080
He's sliding in a second base

2998
02:35:52,080 --> 02:35:54,080
with a stolen base.

2999
02:35:54,080 --> 02:35:56,080
Not knowing that the pitch had gotten away.

3000
02:35:56,080 --> 02:35:58,080
And if he'd have kept this speed,

3001
02:35:58,080 --> 02:36:00,080
I would have been a bit surprised to see him going away to third.

3002
02:36:00,080 --> 02:36:02,080
You know, Harry, in these wild pitches,

3003
02:36:02,080 --> 02:36:04,080
situations like that, these runners have a

3004
02:36:04,080 --> 02:36:06,080
problem in judgment because

3005
02:36:06,080 --> 02:36:08,080
the ball comes back over this backstop and

3006
02:36:08,080 --> 02:36:10,080
right back to the catcher.

3007
02:36:10,080 --> 02:36:12,080
So now, just a base hit

3008
02:36:12,080 --> 02:36:14,080
with put the White Sox ahead.

3009
02:36:14,080 --> 02:36:16,080
Walt Williams, waiting.

3010
02:36:16,080 --> 02:36:18,080
One ball, no strikes.

3011
02:36:18,080 --> 02:36:20,080
Here's the pitch.

3012
02:36:20,080 --> 02:36:22,080
Low and outside, ball two.

3013
02:36:22,080 --> 02:36:24,080
And Williams calls time to squeeze

3014
02:36:24,080 --> 02:36:26,080
the rosin bag. Mike Andrews

3015
02:36:26,080 --> 02:36:28,080
is next.

3016
02:36:28,080 --> 02:36:30,080
Williams,

3017
02:36:30,080 --> 02:36:32,080
no neck.

3018
02:36:32,080 --> 02:36:34,080
195 pounder on a

3019
02:36:34,080 --> 02:36:36,080
1 foot 6 inch frame.

3020
02:36:38,080 --> 02:36:40,080
Reminiscent.

3021
02:36:40,080 --> 02:36:42,080
They're going to walk him intentionally to get to Andrews now.

3022
02:36:42,080 --> 02:36:44,080
They're going to

3023
02:36:44,080 --> 02:36:46,080
walk him intentionally. An intentional

3024
02:36:46,080 --> 02:36:48,080
path. That brings up Mike Andrews

3025
02:36:48,080 --> 02:36:50,080
with runners at first and second.

3026
02:36:50,080 --> 02:36:52,080
Andrews has been hitless today. Nothing

3027
02:36:52,080 --> 02:36:54,080
out of five.

3028
02:36:56,080 --> 02:36:58,080
Walt Williams

3029
02:36:58,080 --> 02:37:00,080
twists down the first pitch.

3030
02:37:00,080 --> 02:37:02,080
So here's Andrews.

3031
02:37:02,080 --> 02:37:04,080
Nothing out of five.

3032
02:37:04,080 --> 02:37:06,080
With a chance here to put the White Sox

3033
02:37:06,080 --> 02:37:08,080
in front.

3034
02:37:10,080 --> 02:37:12,080
Walt Williams at first base.

3035
02:37:12,080 --> 02:37:14,080
B.B. Richard at second base.

3036
02:37:16,080 --> 02:37:18,080
Andrews, a big

3037
02:37:18,080 --> 02:37:20,080
red number two on the back of his

3038
02:37:20,080 --> 02:37:22,080
pastel blue uniform.

3039
02:37:22,080 --> 02:37:24,080
Here's the pitch.

3040
02:37:24,080 --> 02:37:26,080
Curveball inside, ball one.

3041
02:37:26,080 --> 02:37:28,080
One ball, no strikes. They play Andrews

3042
02:37:28,080 --> 02:37:30,080
straight away and deep.

3043
02:37:30,080 --> 02:37:32,080
I'd like to see him plug the gap in either left center

3044
02:37:32,080 --> 02:37:34,080
or right center.

3045
02:37:34,080 --> 02:37:36,080
Right hand hitter waiting.

3046
02:37:36,080 --> 02:37:38,080
Bonham

3047
02:37:38,080 --> 02:37:40,080
in his second inning of relief.

3048
02:37:40,080 --> 02:37:42,080
Now the stretch. Here's

3049
02:37:42,080 --> 02:37:44,080
the pitch. Start of the swing

3050
02:37:44,080 --> 02:37:46,080
held up curveball hit the outside corner of the knee

3051
02:37:46,080 --> 02:37:48,080
and that evens it. A ball and a strike.

3052
02:37:50,080 --> 02:37:52,080
Bonham

3053
02:37:52,080 --> 02:37:54,080
has a good curveball.

3054
02:37:54,080 --> 02:37:56,080
Taller rangey kid from UCLA.

3055
02:37:56,080 --> 02:37:58,080
One ball, one strike.

3056
02:37:58,080 --> 02:38:00,080
The pitch to Andrews.

3057
02:38:00,080 --> 02:38:02,080
And here it is.

3058
02:38:02,080 --> 02:38:04,080
Low outside.

3059
02:38:04,080 --> 02:38:06,080
Two balls and a strike.

3060
02:38:06,080 --> 02:38:08,080
Bill Melton would be next.

3061
02:38:08,080 --> 02:38:10,080
Melton has had four hits today. Four out of five.

3062
02:38:14,080 --> 02:38:16,080
Without his bat the White Sox wouldn't be leading

3063
02:38:16,080 --> 02:38:18,080
and without his air the Cubs wouldn't be tied.

3064
02:38:18,080 --> 02:38:20,080
So that's how it goes.

3065
02:38:22,080 --> 02:38:24,080
Two balls and a strike.

3066
02:38:24,080 --> 02:38:26,080
Here is the

3067
02:38:26,080 --> 02:38:28,080
pitch. Swung the Mr. Curve.

3068
02:38:30,080 --> 02:38:32,080
Without his bat the

3069
02:38:32,080 --> 02:38:34,080
White Sox wouldn't have had the early lead they

3070
02:38:34,080 --> 02:38:36,080
enjoyed a four to nothing.

3071
02:38:38,080 --> 02:38:40,080
He doubled and scored around the second. He homered in the third.

3072
02:38:40,080 --> 02:38:42,080
He's also singled and doubled since then.

3073
02:38:44,080 --> 02:38:46,080
But Andrews has evened up two balls

3074
02:38:46,080 --> 02:38:48,080
two strikes.

3075
02:38:48,080 --> 02:38:50,080
And the pitch.

3076
02:38:50,080 --> 02:38:52,080
Here it is. Swings and he

3077
02:38:52,080 --> 02:38:54,080
foul tips. Bonham keeps

3078
02:38:54,080 --> 02:38:56,080
throwing him sidearm curveball.

3079
02:38:58,080 --> 02:39:00,080
Andrews keeps pulling him.

3080
02:39:00,080 --> 02:39:02,080
Two balls, two strikes.

3081
02:39:02,080 --> 02:39:04,080
Top of the 11th.

3082
02:39:04,080 --> 02:39:06,080
Score tied 4-4.

3083
02:39:06,080 --> 02:39:08,080
White Sunshine.

3084
02:39:08,080 --> 02:39:10,080
It's four o'clock

3085
02:39:10,080 --> 02:39:12,080
here in Arizona.

3086
02:39:12,080 --> 02:39:14,080
Five o'clock in Chicago.

3087
02:39:16,080 --> 02:39:18,080
The dancing

3088
02:39:18,080 --> 02:39:20,080
at the nightclubs in Tokyo.

3089
02:39:20,080 --> 02:39:22,080
Here's the pitch.

3090
02:39:22,080 --> 02:39:24,080
Outside curveball

3091
02:39:24,080 --> 02:39:26,080
three. Boy he almost hit that corner with that.

3092
02:39:26,080 --> 02:39:28,080
And now the

3093
02:39:28,080 --> 02:39:30,080
count is three and two and the runners will be going with the pitch.

3094
02:39:30,080 --> 02:39:32,080
Three balls, two strikes.

3095
02:39:34,080 --> 02:39:36,080
Bonham

3096
02:39:36,080 --> 02:39:38,080
steps back off the rubber.

3097
02:39:38,080 --> 02:39:40,080
He's going to pitch off the stretch of course.

3098
02:39:40,080 --> 02:39:42,080
Richard will be breaking

3099
02:39:42,080 --> 02:39:44,080
as will Walt Williams.

3100
02:39:44,080 --> 02:39:46,080
Three balls, two strikes. Here's the stretch.

3101
02:39:46,080 --> 02:39:48,080
Here's the pitch. There go the runners.

3102
02:39:48,080 --> 02:39:50,080
Ball four high.

3103
02:39:50,080 --> 02:39:52,080
The bases are loaded.

3104
02:39:52,080 --> 02:39:54,080
And here's Melton. Can he do it again?

3105
02:39:58,080 --> 02:40:00,080
The bases are loaded with two outs.

3106
02:40:00,080 --> 02:40:02,080
Melton has had

3107
02:40:02,080 --> 02:40:04,080
two doubles, a single and a homer.

3108
02:40:06,080 --> 02:40:08,080
Here's the spot where he'll be looking just for

3109
02:40:08,080 --> 02:40:18,080
the base hit.

3110
02:40:18,080 --> 02:40:20,080
Bonham had a pitch out of trouble in the tenth.

3111
02:40:20,080 --> 02:40:22,080
And now he's in a jam

3112
02:40:22,080 --> 02:40:24,080
again here in the eleventh.

3113
02:40:24,080 --> 02:40:26,080
Bases loaded, two outs.

3114
02:40:26,080 --> 02:40:28,080
Melton waiting.

3115
02:40:28,080 --> 02:40:30,080
Here's the windup, the pitch on the way.

3116
02:40:30,080 --> 02:40:32,080
Curve right in there

3117
02:40:32,080 --> 02:40:34,080
a strike ball. This kid has a

3118
02:40:34,080 --> 02:40:36,080
playing curveball.

3119
02:40:36,080 --> 02:40:38,080
Just a year out of college

3120
02:40:38,080 --> 02:40:40,080
he has great pitching points.

3121
02:40:40,080 --> 02:40:42,080
One strike and no ball.

3122
02:40:42,080 --> 02:40:44,080
Bases jammed with

3123
02:40:44,080 --> 02:40:46,080
two outs. The pitch to Bill Melton.

3124
02:40:46,080 --> 02:40:48,080
Almost hit him inside.

3125
02:40:48,080 --> 02:40:50,080
Boy he's thrown about seven

3126
02:40:50,080 --> 02:40:52,080
curveballs in a row.

3127
02:40:52,080 --> 02:40:54,080
The cub catcher

3128
02:40:54,080 --> 02:40:56,080
Ken Rudolph must have an olive stuck

3129
02:40:56,080 --> 02:40:58,080
between his fingers.

3130
02:40:58,080 --> 02:41:00,080
All he signals

3131
02:41:00,080 --> 02:41:02,080
is number two for the curveball.

3132
02:41:02,080 --> 02:41:04,080
One ball, one strike.

3133
02:41:04,080 --> 02:41:06,080
Right hand hitter waiting.

3134
02:41:06,080 --> 02:41:08,080
The pitch by Bonham.

3135
02:41:08,080 --> 02:41:10,080
Here it is.

3136
02:41:10,080 --> 02:41:12,080
Popped out of the out of the center.

3137
02:41:12,080 --> 02:41:14,080
Spectered under the ball.

3138
02:41:14,080 --> 02:41:16,080
And he makes the catch.

3139
02:41:16,080 --> 02:41:18,080
Melton pops the becker.

3140
02:41:18,080 --> 02:41:20,080
So it's no run.

3141
02:41:20,080 --> 02:41:22,080
One hit, no errors. Three left.

3142
02:41:22,080 --> 02:41:24,080
The White Sox have strayed at five

3143
02:41:24,080 --> 02:41:26,080
in the last two innings.

3144
02:41:26,080 --> 02:41:28,080
And the momentum of this ball game

3145
02:41:28,080 --> 02:41:30,080
seems to have moved slowly

3146
02:41:30,080 --> 02:41:32,080
over towards the cub side.

3147
02:41:32,080 --> 02:41:34,080
So we move into the bottom of the 11th

3148
02:41:34,080 --> 02:41:36,080
still tied.

3149
02:41:36,080 --> 02:41:38,080
Four and four.

3150
02:41:38,080 --> 02:41:40,080
Four.

3151
02:42:08,080 --> 02:42:10,080
Four.

3152
02:42:38,080 --> 02:42:40,080
Today folks, pick up your souvenir copy

3153
02:42:40,080 --> 02:42:42,080
of the silver adornment tree

3154
02:42:42,080 --> 02:42:44,080
of the Cactus Plate.

3155
02:42:44,080 --> 02:42:46,080
The first batter

3156
02:42:46,080 --> 02:42:48,080
of the competition.

3157
02:42:48,080 --> 02:42:50,080
This is the Chicago White Sox baseball network.

3158
02:42:50,080 --> 02:42:52,080
Four.

3159
02:42:52,080 --> 02:42:54,080
Four.

3160
02:42:54,080 --> 02:42:56,080
Four.

3161
02:42:56,080 --> 02:42:58,080
Three.

3162
02:42:58,080 --> 02:43:00,080
Nice play, Carey.

3163
02:43:00,080 --> 02:43:02,080
Harry Carey

3164
02:43:02,080 --> 02:43:04,080
back at the ballpark bottom of the 11th

3165
02:43:04,080 --> 02:43:06,080
with Joe Pepitone leading it off.

3166
02:43:06,080 --> 02:43:08,080
He's had one out of two today.

3167
02:43:08,080 --> 02:43:10,080
Here's the pitch by Wilbur Wood.

3168
02:43:10,080 --> 02:43:12,080
Knocked the ball a little bit low.

3169
02:43:12,080 --> 02:43:14,080
One ball, no strikes.

3170
02:43:14,080 --> 02:43:16,080
Pepitone drove in their first run in the seventh inning.

3171
02:43:16,080 --> 02:43:18,080
With two out, he single the center

3172
02:43:18,080 --> 02:43:20,080
to score Rudolph.

3173
02:43:20,080 --> 02:43:22,080
Here's the pitch on the way.

3174
02:43:22,080 --> 02:43:24,080
Knocked the ball in there. A beauty, a strike called.

3175
02:43:24,080 --> 02:43:26,080
And the count evens. A ball and a strike.

3176
02:43:26,080 --> 02:43:28,080
It'll be Pepitone, Kessinger, and Becker.

3177
02:43:28,080 --> 02:43:30,080
And if anybody gets on, Billy Williams

3178
02:43:30,080 --> 02:43:32,080
for the Cubs in the 11th.

3179
02:43:32,080 --> 02:43:34,080
The White Sox have to hold them

3180
02:43:34,080 --> 02:43:36,080
to have a chance. Here's the pitch.

3181
02:43:36,080 --> 02:43:38,080
Knocked the ball, swirled the dribbler toward

3182
02:43:38,080 --> 02:43:40,080
Sharpe. Here's Lee Richard's throw.

3183
02:43:40,080 --> 02:43:42,080
He is out on a good play.

3184
02:43:42,080 --> 02:43:44,080
Richard

3185
02:43:44,080 --> 02:43:46,080
throws out Pepitone.

3186
02:43:46,080 --> 02:43:48,080
Pepitone hit that off the end of the foul.

3187
02:43:48,080 --> 02:43:50,080
He just started to

3188
02:43:50,080 --> 02:43:52,080
ooze toward Sharpe

3189
02:43:52,080 --> 02:43:54,080
with a lateral reverse spin.

3190
02:43:54,080 --> 02:43:56,080
Richard failed the ball and then

3191
02:43:56,080 --> 02:43:58,080
gunned him out.

3192
02:43:58,080 --> 02:44:00,080
Here's Kessinger

3193
02:44:00,080 --> 02:44:04,080
who sent this game into extra innings.

3194
02:44:04,080 --> 02:44:06,080
One out, nobody on.

3195
02:44:06,080 --> 02:44:08,080
That was his only

3196
02:44:08,080 --> 02:44:10,080
hit of the game, a single off Wilbur Wood to drive

3197
02:44:10,080 --> 02:44:12,080
in two runs of the night. The pitch.

3198
02:44:12,080 --> 02:44:14,080
Knocked the ball low. Kessinger

3199
02:44:14,080 --> 02:44:16,080
switch hitter.

3200
02:44:16,080 --> 02:44:18,080
Boy, this guy has made himself

3201
02:44:18,080 --> 02:44:20,080
a $60,000

3202
02:44:20,080 --> 02:44:22,080
a year shortstop.

3203
02:44:22,080 --> 02:44:24,080
Here's the pitch.

3204
02:44:24,080 --> 02:44:26,080
And knocked the ball inside.

3205
02:44:26,080 --> 02:44:28,080
And he had to work hard.

3206
02:44:28,080 --> 02:44:30,080
He learned to switch hit.

3207
02:44:30,080 --> 02:44:32,080
Always had

3208
02:44:32,080 --> 02:44:34,080
great range and fine arm.

3209
02:44:34,080 --> 02:44:36,080
29 year old

3210
02:44:36,080 --> 02:44:38,080
shortstop. The pitch by Wilbur Wood.

3211
02:44:38,080 --> 02:44:40,080
Line driver to the third base.

3212
02:44:40,080 --> 02:44:42,080
Kessinger lined hard

3213
02:44:42,080 --> 02:44:44,080
to melt. Two up,

3214
02:44:44,080 --> 02:44:46,080
two down. Here's Glenn Becker.

3215
02:44:46,080 --> 02:44:48,080
The next batter, number 18

3216
02:44:48,080 --> 02:44:50,080
Glenn Becker. Second base.

3217
02:44:52,080 --> 02:44:54,080
Becker

3218
02:44:54,080 --> 02:44:56,080
from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

3219
02:44:56,080 --> 02:44:58,080
He's 31 years old.

3220
02:44:58,080 --> 02:45:00,080
He came up

3221
02:45:00,080 --> 02:45:02,080
with the Cubs in 1955.

3222
02:45:02,080 --> 02:45:04,080
Right-handed hitter

3223
02:45:04,080 --> 02:45:06,080
waiting. Two men out. He's

3224
02:45:06,080 --> 02:45:08,080
two out of five today. The pitch.

3225
02:45:08,080 --> 02:45:10,080
Knuckleball low. Billy Williams is

3226
02:45:10,080 --> 02:45:12,080
next.

3227
02:45:12,080 --> 02:45:14,080
The final exhibition

3228
02:45:14,080 --> 02:45:16,080
game of the season is an extra inning

3229
02:45:16,080 --> 02:45:18,080
thriller between the Cubs and the White Sox

3230
02:45:18,080 --> 02:45:20,080
for the mythical city title. The pitch.

3231
02:45:20,080 --> 02:45:22,080
Inside.

3232
02:45:22,080 --> 02:45:24,080
Don't walk

3233
02:45:24,080 --> 02:45:26,080
this guy with Billy Williams coming up next.

3234
02:45:28,080 --> 02:45:30,080
Two balls, no strikes.

3235
02:45:30,080 --> 02:45:32,080
Becker

3236
02:45:32,080 --> 02:45:34,080
waiting. Here's Wilbur Wood's

3237
02:45:34,080 --> 02:45:36,080
pitch. Right

3238
02:45:36,080 --> 02:45:38,080
in there a beauty of strike call.

3239
02:45:42,080 --> 02:45:44,080
Glenn Becker, not

3240
02:45:44,080 --> 02:45:46,080
known for his power.

3241
02:45:46,080 --> 02:45:48,080
More of a singles doubles hitter. There's a fastball

3242
02:45:48,080 --> 02:45:50,080
inside.

3243
02:45:50,080 --> 02:45:52,080
Becker

3244
02:45:52,080 --> 02:45:54,080
last year.

3245
02:45:54,080 --> 02:45:56,080
Hit three home runs the year before he had only one.

3246
02:45:56,080 --> 02:45:58,080
In his major league career

3247
02:45:58,080 --> 02:46:00,080
he's hit a total of 17.

3248
02:46:00,080 --> 02:46:02,080
Here's the pitch.

3249
02:46:02,080 --> 02:46:04,080
High fly ball should be caught.

3250
02:46:04,080 --> 02:46:06,080
Rick Rightford is there waiting.

3251
02:46:06,080 --> 02:46:08,080
Makes the catch to retire

3252
02:46:08,080 --> 02:46:10,080
to side. So Wilbur Wood

3253
02:46:10,080 --> 02:46:12,080
is second straight perfect inning.

3254
02:46:12,080 --> 02:46:14,080
Nothing across. At the end of 11

3255
02:46:14,080 --> 02:46:16,080
tied up 4-4.

3256
02:46:18,080 --> 02:46:20,080
Once again a change of cassettes

3257
02:46:20,080 --> 02:46:22,080
and a few minutes missed.

3258
02:46:22,080 --> 02:46:24,080
From the belt the pitch.

3259
02:46:24,080 --> 02:46:26,080
Wide curveball. Outside

3260
02:46:26,080 --> 02:46:28,080
and the count.

3261
02:46:28,080 --> 02:46:30,080
Ball two.

3262
02:46:30,080 --> 02:46:32,080
And Rick Rightford steps out of the batter's box

3263
02:46:32,080 --> 02:46:34,080
to look at Joe Lynette.

3264
02:46:34,080 --> 02:46:36,080
To see whether it's hit or take.

3265
02:46:36,080 --> 02:46:38,080
Ed Stroud will be next.

3266
02:46:38,080 --> 02:46:40,080
Runner at first base, nobody out.

3267
02:46:40,080 --> 02:46:42,080
We're in the 12th.

3268
02:46:42,080 --> 02:46:44,080
In each of the last two innings the

3269
02:46:44,080 --> 02:46:46,080
White Sox threat. Only to be

3270
02:46:46,080 --> 02:46:48,080
stopped. They've stranded five in the

3271
02:46:48,080 --> 02:46:50,080
last two innings.

3272
02:46:50,080 --> 02:46:52,080
Here's the pitch to Rick Rightford.

3273
02:46:52,080 --> 02:46:54,080
Right in there.

3274
02:46:54,080 --> 02:46:56,080
And if he had the hit sign

3275
02:46:56,080 --> 02:46:58,080
he'll never get a better pitch.

3276
02:46:58,080 --> 02:47:00,080
Two balls and a strike.

3277
02:47:00,080 --> 02:47:02,080
Runner at first base,

3278
02:47:02,080 --> 02:47:04,080
nobody out.

3279
02:47:04,080 --> 02:47:06,080
Top of the 12th.

3280
02:47:08,080 --> 02:47:10,080
Here's the lead

3281
02:47:10,080 --> 02:47:12,080
by Carlos May Pepitone holding him close.

3282
02:47:12,080 --> 02:47:14,080
Now the pitch.

3283
02:47:14,080 --> 02:47:16,080
Swings it a bad ball. A little roller to the

3284
02:47:16,080 --> 02:47:18,080
right hand base and Bechert to Kessinger for one

3285
02:47:18,080 --> 02:47:20,080
over the first save.

3286
02:47:20,080 --> 02:47:22,080
Rightford rolled to

3287
02:47:22,080 --> 02:47:24,080
Bechert who forced Carlos

3288
02:47:24,080 --> 02:47:26,080
May with a toss to Kessinger.

3289
02:47:26,080 --> 02:47:28,080
And here's Ed Stroud.

3290
02:47:30,080 --> 02:47:32,080
Stroud has been a hot hitter.

3291
02:47:32,080 --> 02:47:34,080
He's had seven out of ten since

3292
02:47:34,080 --> 02:47:36,080
joining the White Sox.

3293
02:47:36,080 --> 02:47:38,080
Two doubles and a triple included.

3294
02:47:38,080 --> 02:47:40,080
Rightford at first went out.

3295
02:47:40,080 --> 02:47:42,080
I think

3296
02:47:42,080 --> 02:47:44,080
a sign might have been missed on that one.

3297
02:47:44,080 --> 02:47:46,080
Rick Rightford went after the ball

3298
02:47:46,080 --> 02:47:48,080
as if he thought the hit and run were on.

3299
02:47:48,080 --> 02:47:50,080
And Carlos May

3300
02:47:50,080 --> 02:47:52,080
didn't break off first as if

3301
02:47:52,080 --> 02:47:54,080
there wasn't any hit and run on.

3302
02:47:54,080 --> 02:47:56,080
Because Rightford went after the bad

3303
02:47:56,080 --> 02:47:58,080
ball as if to protect the runner.

3304
02:47:58,080 --> 02:48:00,080
Pitched to Stroud. Curve ball in there

3305
02:48:00,080 --> 02:48:02,080
at the knee. One strike, no ball.

3306
02:48:04,080 --> 02:48:06,080
Barnum has been tremendous.

3307
02:48:06,080 --> 02:48:08,080
He's pitched out of trouble in each of three

3308
02:48:08,080 --> 02:48:10,080
innings that he's with.

3309
02:48:10,080 --> 02:48:12,080
One strike, no ball.

3310
02:48:12,080 --> 02:48:14,080
Now the pitch. Pitch out.

3311
02:48:14,080 --> 02:48:16,080
There goes the runner. They should throw him out a mile.

3312
02:48:16,080 --> 02:48:18,080
He's out.

3313
02:48:20,080 --> 02:48:22,080
From Rudolph to Kessinger.

3314
02:48:22,080 --> 02:48:24,080
And the Cubs

3315
02:48:24,080 --> 02:48:26,080
have diagnosed the play perfectly.

3316
02:48:26,080 --> 02:48:28,080
Called for the pitch out and Rudolph

3317
02:48:28,080 --> 02:48:30,080
gunned him out.

3318
02:48:30,080 --> 02:48:32,080
Now Stroud is up there with nobody on base.

3319
02:48:32,080 --> 02:48:34,080
The count on him a ball and a strike.

3320
02:48:36,080 --> 02:48:38,080
Bill Barnum

3321
02:48:38,080 --> 02:48:40,080
looks down.

3322
02:48:40,080 --> 02:48:42,080
Stands 6-5.

3323
02:48:42,080 --> 02:48:44,080
Here's the pitch on the way.

3324
02:48:44,080 --> 02:48:46,080
Stroud takes a strike.

3325
02:48:46,080 --> 02:48:48,080
Over the outside corner. Two strikes and a ball.

3326
02:48:48,080 --> 02:48:50,080
Ed Herman would be next

3327
02:48:50,080 --> 02:48:52,080
if Stroud could get on there.

3328
02:48:52,080 --> 02:48:54,080
Looking ahead to the Cubs 12th it will be Billy Williams

3329
02:48:54,080 --> 02:48:56,080
around Santo.

3330
02:48:56,080 --> 02:48:58,080
And then the pitcher.

3331
02:48:58,080 --> 02:49:00,080
One ball, two strikes, the pitch.

3332
02:49:00,080 --> 02:49:02,080
All low, evens it up.

3333
02:49:04,080 --> 02:49:06,080
All evened it. Two balls,

3334
02:49:06,080 --> 02:49:08,080
two strikes.

3335
02:49:08,080 --> 02:49:10,080
Ed Stroud

3336
02:49:10,080 --> 02:49:12,080
with the white socks, the second go around.

3337
02:49:14,080 --> 02:49:16,080
Was with Washington last year, the last couple of years.

3338
02:49:16,080 --> 02:49:18,080
Here's the pitch.

3339
02:49:18,080 --> 02:49:20,080
Swung and they fouled it.

3340
02:49:20,080 --> 02:49:22,080
The count stays the same.

3341
02:49:22,080 --> 02:49:24,080
Crowd quiet now.

3342
02:49:24,080 --> 02:49:26,080
Terry Forster is warming up

3343
02:49:26,080 --> 02:49:28,080
in the bullpen.

3344
02:49:30,080 --> 02:49:32,080
Cincinnati enjoys its

3345
02:49:32,080 --> 02:49:34,080
annual inaugural in the

3346
02:49:34,080 --> 02:49:36,080
National League tomorrow afternoon.

3347
02:49:36,080 --> 02:49:38,080
Here's the pitch.

3348
02:49:38,080 --> 02:49:40,080
He struck him out.

3349
02:49:40,080 --> 02:49:42,080
Stroud goes out swinging.

3350
02:49:42,080 --> 02:49:44,080
And Barnum has been a most

3351
02:49:44,080 --> 02:49:46,080
impressive pitcher. No runs, one hit, no errors,

3352
02:49:46,080 --> 02:49:48,080
nobody left. We're moving to the bottom of the

3353
02:49:48,080 --> 02:49:50,080
12th tied 4-4.

3354
02:49:54,080 --> 02:49:56,080
I'm good right now.

3355
02:49:56,080 --> 02:50:02,080
I may go right to the car and go home.

3356
02:50:02,080 --> 02:50:04,080
Well, somebody will hit the roof here.

3357
02:50:04,080 --> 02:50:06,080
Look.

3358
02:50:06,080 --> 02:50:26,080
Crowd noise.

3359
02:50:26,080 --> 02:50:28,080
Ed Herman,

3360
02:50:28,080 --> 02:50:30,080
pitcher and a baby

3361
02:50:30,080 --> 02:50:32,080
pitcher.

3362
02:50:32,080 --> 02:50:34,080
Crowd noise.

3363
02:50:34,080 --> 02:50:36,080
Crowd noise.

3364
02:50:36,080 --> 02:50:38,080
Crowd noise.

3365
02:50:38,080 --> 02:50:40,080
Crowd noise.

3366
02:50:40,080 --> 02:50:42,080
Crowd noise.

3367
02:50:42,080 --> 02:50:44,080
Crowd noise.

3368
02:50:44,080 --> 02:50:46,080
Crowd noise.

3369
02:50:46,080 --> 02:50:48,080
We go into the bottom of the 12th. Billy Williams

3370
02:50:48,080 --> 02:50:50,080
elided off of the Cubs. He's walked three times

3371
02:50:50,080 --> 02:50:52,080
today. He's nothing out of two.

3372
02:50:52,080 --> 02:50:54,080
Crowd noise.

3373
02:50:54,080 --> 02:50:56,080
Crowd noise.

3374
02:50:56,080 --> 02:50:58,080
The first batter for the Cubs, the bottom of the 12th

3375
02:50:58,080 --> 02:51:00,080
city, number 26,

3376
02:51:00,080 --> 02:51:02,080
Billy Williams.

3377
02:51:02,080 --> 02:51:04,080
And Wilbur Wood really has a job

3378
02:51:04,080 --> 02:51:06,080
in this inning.

3379
02:51:06,080 --> 02:51:08,080
Billy Williams leads it off, then Ron Santo.

3380
02:51:08,080 --> 02:51:10,080
And then the pitcher

3381
02:51:10,080 --> 02:51:12,080
coming up.

3382
02:51:12,080 --> 02:51:14,080
Wood has pitched.

3383
02:51:14,080 --> 02:51:16,080
He's retired the last eight minutes

3384
02:51:16,080 --> 02:51:18,080
base. Here's the pitch on the way. Swung

3385
02:51:18,080 --> 02:51:20,080
and a knuckleball and he missed. Strike one.

3386
02:51:20,080 --> 02:51:22,080
One strike and no ball.

3387
02:51:22,080 --> 02:51:24,080
The outfield plays

3388
02:51:24,080 --> 02:51:26,080
you know where.

3389
02:51:26,080 --> 02:51:28,080
Walt Williams is almost out of sight

3390
02:51:28,080 --> 02:51:30,080
in right field.

3391
02:51:30,080 --> 02:51:32,080
Now the wind up, the pitch on the way. Here it is.

3392
02:51:32,080 --> 02:51:34,080
Knuckleball swings

3393
02:51:34,080 --> 02:51:36,080
and he misses. Strike two.

3394
02:51:36,080 --> 02:51:38,080
Who did he go around?

3395
02:51:38,080 --> 02:51:40,080
Wilbur Wood ahead of him. Two strikes

3396
02:51:40,080 --> 02:51:42,080
and nothing. Santo

3397
02:51:42,080 --> 02:51:44,080
be up there next.

3398
02:51:44,080 --> 02:51:46,080
Out of sight.

3399
02:51:46,080 --> 02:51:48,080
Here's the pitch on the way.

3400
02:51:48,080 --> 02:51:50,080
Knuckleball swung and there's a long drive.

3401
02:51:50,080 --> 02:51:52,080
Way back. Might be a

3402
02:51:52,080 --> 02:51:54,080
stride near the wall. Way back. Way

3403
02:51:54,080 --> 02:51:56,080
back and he makes the catch.

3404
02:51:56,080 --> 02:51:58,080
Holy cow.

3405
02:51:58,080 --> 02:52:00,080
430 feet away.

3406
02:52:00,080 --> 02:52:02,080
Williams of the count

3407
02:52:02,080 --> 02:52:04,080
of two strikes and no balls.

3408
02:52:04,080 --> 02:52:06,080
Wilbur Wood threw him another knuckleball

3409
02:52:06,080 --> 02:52:08,080
and got it up around his eyes.

3410
02:52:08,080 --> 02:52:10,080
It didn't quite knuckle as much as the other two.

3411
02:52:10,080 --> 02:52:12,080
And Williams almost ended the game.

3412
02:52:12,080 --> 02:52:14,080
Stroud went

3413
02:52:14,080 --> 02:52:16,080
back to the 430 mark to haul it in.

3414
02:52:18,080 --> 02:52:20,080
Here's Santo. Popped up with

3415
02:52:20,080 --> 02:52:22,080
the bases loaded and went out of the ninth when the Cubs

3416
02:52:22,080 --> 02:52:24,080
could have won it.

3417
02:52:24,080 --> 02:52:26,080
He is nothing out of, one out of four.

3418
02:52:26,080 --> 02:52:28,080
One out of four is right. One out of five

3419
02:52:28,080 --> 02:52:30,080
is right. First pitch knuckleball

3420
02:52:30,080 --> 02:52:32,080
inside. One out, nobody

3421
02:52:32,080 --> 02:52:34,080
on. Bottom of the twelfth tied four

3422
02:52:34,080 --> 02:52:36,080
four. White Sox

3423
02:52:36,080 --> 02:52:38,080
haven't scored for a long time since

3424
02:52:38,080 --> 02:52:40,080
the seventh inning. Here's Santo

3425
02:52:40,080 --> 02:52:42,080
hitting a knuckleball foul off to the left.

3426
02:52:42,080 --> 02:52:44,080
One ball, one

3427
02:52:44,080 --> 02:52:46,080
strike, one out, nobody on.

3428
02:52:48,080 --> 02:52:50,080
Gary

3429
02:52:50,080 --> 02:52:52,080
Gestad is going to be the pinch hitter next.

3430
02:52:52,080 --> 02:52:56,080
An infielder, Gary Gestad.

3431
02:52:56,080 --> 02:52:58,080
JSTADT, here's the pitch.

3432
02:52:58,080 --> 02:53:00,080
He swings and he misses.

3433
02:53:00,080 --> 02:53:02,080
Two strikes

3434
02:53:02,080 --> 02:53:04,080
and a ball. Santo was

3435
02:53:04,080 --> 02:53:06,080
trying to end it.

3436
02:53:06,080 --> 02:53:08,080
Billy Williams a moment ago almost did

3437
02:53:08,080 --> 02:53:10,080
end it. His long drive

3438
02:53:10,080 --> 02:53:12,080
fortunately was hit to the longest

3439
02:53:12,080 --> 02:53:14,080
part of the park. And

3440
02:53:14,080 --> 02:53:16,080
Stroud went about 430 feet

3441
02:53:16,080 --> 02:53:18,080
away to grab it.

3442
02:53:18,080 --> 02:53:20,080
Two strikes and a ball.

3443
02:53:20,080 --> 02:53:22,080
The pitch to Santo, here it is.

3444
02:53:22,080 --> 02:53:24,080
Knuckleball a little bit outside.

3445
02:53:24,080 --> 02:53:26,080
That evens it.

3446
02:53:26,080 --> 02:53:28,080
Two balls, two strikes.

3447
02:53:28,080 --> 02:53:30,080
Gary Gestad

3448
02:53:30,080 --> 02:53:32,080
will be next. Here's the

3449
02:53:32,080 --> 02:53:34,080
pitch on the way.

3450
02:53:34,080 --> 02:53:36,080
Ground ball to short, B.B. Richard on the big half.

3451
02:53:36,080 --> 02:53:38,080
Here's the throw. End time.

3452
02:53:38,080 --> 02:53:40,080
It pulled Carlos

3453
02:53:40,080 --> 02:53:42,080
May off the bag but he tagged Santo

3454
02:53:42,080 --> 02:53:44,080
on the chest going by.

3455
02:53:44,080 --> 02:53:46,080
Two gone.

3456
02:53:46,080 --> 02:53:48,080
And here's

3457
02:53:48,080 --> 02:53:50,080
Gary Gestad.

3458
02:53:50,080 --> 02:53:52,080
Number 16, Gary Gestad.

3459
02:53:56,080 --> 02:53:58,080
Seven, eight, nine,

3460
02:53:58,080 --> 02:54:00,080
ten, eleven. B.B.

3461
02:54:00,080 --> 02:54:02,080
Richard has handled eleven chances without

3462
02:54:02,080 --> 02:54:04,080
an error on shortstop today.

3463
02:54:04,080 --> 02:54:06,080
Here's the pitch to Gestad.

3464
02:54:06,080 --> 02:54:08,080
He bunts. Down the third base line.

3465
02:54:08,080 --> 02:54:10,080
Ball, strike one.

3466
02:54:10,080 --> 02:54:12,080
One strike and a ball.

3467
02:54:12,080 --> 02:54:14,080
Oh, thank you.

3468
02:54:14,080 --> 02:54:16,080
It's fine.

3469
02:54:16,080 --> 02:54:18,080
Boy, we're dehydrated.

3470
02:54:18,080 --> 02:54:20,080
This hot sun shining

3471
02:54:20,080 --> 02:54:22,080
right through on the back, on our

3472
02:54:22,080 --> 02:54:24,080
back in this booth.

3473
02:54:24,080 --> 02:54:26,080
Too bad we don't have a beer

3474
02:54:26,080 --> 02:54:28,080
sponsor. This would be a great time

3475
02:54:28,080 --> 02:54:30,080
for an ad lib.

3476
02:54:30,080 --> 02:54:32,080
Two men are out.

3477
02:54:32,080 --> 02:54:34,080
One strike and no balls on

3478
02:54:34,080 --> 02:54:36,080
Gary Gestad.

3479
02:54:36,080 --> 02:54:38,080
Batting for Bill Bonham. Here's the pitch

3480
02:54:38,080 --> 02:54:40,080
by Wilbur Wood.

3481
02:54:40,080 --> 02:54:42,080
Knocks him back.

3482
02:54:42,080 --> 02:54:44,080
This is Wilbur Wood's.

3483
02:54:46,080 --> 02:54:48,080
He's actually pitched now.

3484
02:54:48,080 --> 02:54:50,080
This will be his fourth full inning.

3485
02:54:50,080 --> 02:54:52,080
He relieved with runners at second and third

3486
02:54:52,080 --> 02:54:54,080
and nobody out. White Sox leading

3487
02:54:54,080 --> 02:54:56,080
four to two in the ninth. Here's the pitch.

3488
02:54:56,080 --> 02:54:58,080
Knocked a ball, gets away.

3489
02:54:58,080 --> 02:55:00,080
From Ed Herman.

3490
02:55:04,080 --> 02:55:06,080
Johnny Callison will be next to the cup.

3491
02:55:06,080 --> 02:55:08,080
Gestad trying to get on.

3492
02:55:08,080 --> 02:55:10,080
Two balls and a strike. Two off.

3493
02:55:10,080 --> 02:55:12,080
Ed Herman will lead it off on the

3494
02:55:12,080 --> 02:55:14,080
13th for the White Sox. The pitch.

3495
02:55:14,080 --> 02:55:16,080
Low, ball three.

3496
02:55:16,080 --> 02:55:18,080
Three balls and a strike.

3497
02:55:18,080 --> 02:55:20,080
Gary Gestad.

3498
02:55:20,080 --> 02:55:22,080
A Chicago, Illinois boy

3499
02:55:22,080 --> 02:55:24,080
now lives out here in

3500
02:55:24,080 --> 02:55:26,080
Scottsdale.

3501
02:55:26,080 --> 02:55:28,080
Three balls, one strike.

3502
02:55:28,080 --> 02:55:30,080
Here's the pitch.

3503
02:55:30,080 --> 02:55:32,080
Strike two call.

3504
02:55:32,080 --> 02:55:34,080
Gestad hit two homers for

3505
02:55:34,080 --> 02:55:36,080
Tacoma last year and one for San Antonio.

3506
02:55:36,080 --> 02:55:38,080
Twenty-four year old infielder.

3507
02:55:38,080 --> 02:55:40,080
Three balls, two strikes.

3508
02:55:40,080 --> 02:55:42,080
Here's the pitch.

3509
02:55:42,080 --> 02:55:44,080
Ball four. He walked him and here's Johnny Callison.

3510
02:55:48,080 --> 02:55:50,080
The batter, number six,

3511
02:55:50,080 --> 02:55:52,080
Johnny Callison.

3512
02:55:52,080 --> 02:55:54,080
Right field.

3513
02:55:56,080 --> 02:55:58,080
Boy that Burnham pitched

3514
02:55:58,080 --> 02:56:00,080
three pressure innings, allowed three hits.

3515
02:56:00,080 --> 02:56:02,080
No runs.

3516
02:56:02,080 --> 02:56:04,080
And he was really tough in the clean and

3517
02:56:04,080 --> 02:56:06,080
he was really tough in the clinch.

3518
02:56:06,080 --> 02:56:08,080
He walked three and struck out two.

3519
02:56:12,080 --> 02:56:14,080
So the Cubs will have another pitcher on the 13th I suppose,

3520
02:56:14,080 --> 02:56:16,080
although I don't see anybody warming up.

3521
02:56:16,080 --> 02:56:18,080
Here's the throw for the first runner back.

3522
02:56:20,080 --> 02:56:22,080
Johnny Callison has had two hits.

3523
02:56:24,080 --> 02:56:26,080
Two out of five.

3524
02:56:26,080 --> 02:56:28,080
Here's the throw to first runner back again.

3525
02:56:28,080 --> 02:56:30,080
Gary Gestad.

3526
02:56:30,080 --> 02:56:32,080
Here's the runner at first.

3527
02:56:32,080 --> 02:56:34,080
He drew a base on balls.

3528
02:56:34,080 --> 02:56:36,080
That's a second given up by Wilbur Wood.

3529
02:56:38,080 --> 02:56:40,080
Now the stretch.

3530
02:56:40,080 --> 02:56:42,080
Here's the pitch.

3531
02:56:42,080 --> 02:56:44,080
Into the dirt. There he goes.

3532
02:56:44,080 --> 02:56:46,080
The second base. A throw by Herman.

3533
02:56:46,080 --> 02:56:48,080
Close. Safe at second base.

3534
02:56:48,080 --> 02:56:50,080
So the Cubs have the winning run at second.

3535
02:56:50,080 --> 02:56:52,080
A wild pitch.

3536
02:56:52,080 --> 02:56:54,080
Herman quickly recovered it

3537
02:56:54,080 --> 02:56:56,080
and flared to second and they almost

3538
02:56:56,080 --> 02:56:58,080
got Gestad.

3539
02:56:58,080 --> 02:57:00,080
Now Callison in the spot to

3540
02:57:00,080 --> 02:57:02,080
win it.

3541
02:57:04,080 --> 02:57:06,080
We're in the bottom of the 12th. Two out.

3542
02:57:06,080 --> 02:57:08,080
With two out,

3543
02:57:08,080 --> 02:57:10,080
Wilbur Wood walked

3544
02:57:10,080 --> 02:57:12,080
the pinch hitter Gary Gestad.

3545
02:57:14,080 --> 02:57:16,080
After retiring, Billy Williams

3546
02:57:16,080 --> 02:57:18,080
and Ron Santo.

3547
02:57:18,080 --> 02:57:20,080
Now a wild pitch has put him

3548
02:57:20,080 --> 02:57:22,080
in scoring position

3549
02:57:22,080 --> 02:57:24,080
and a pitch to Callison on the way.

3550
02:57:24,080 --> 02:57:26,080
Knock a ball inside.

3551
02:57:26,080 --> 02:57:28,080
Two balls, no strikes.

3552
02:57:28,080 --> 02:57:30,080
Two out, a runner in scoring position.

3553
02:57:30,080 --> 02:57:32,080
The outfield plays Callison

3554
02:57:32,080 --> 02:57:34,080
to pull.

3555
02:57:34,080 --> 02:57:36,080
Now to stretch the hesitation.

3556
02:57:36,080 --> 02:57:38,080
Here it is.

3557
02:57:38,080 --> 02:57:40,080
Ground ball at the middle. There's the ball

3558
02:57:40,080 --> 02:57:42,080
there. Here's Gestad.

3559
02:57:42,080 --> 02:57:44,080
Around third. He's going to score.

3560
02:57:44,080 --> 02:57:46,080
And the Cubs have won the city championship

3561
02:57:46,080 --> 02:57:48,080
beating the White Sox in four

3562
02:57:48,080 --> 02:57:50,080
innings, five to pull.

3563
02:57:50,080 --> 02:57:52,080
So Johnny Callison bounce back

3564
02:57:52,080 --> 02:57:54,080
and he's going to score.

3565
02:57:54,080 --> 02:57:56,080
So Johnny Callison bounce

3566
02:57:56,080 --> 02:57:58,080
right up the middle. His third hit

3567
02:57:58,080 --> 02:58:00,080
of the game. And Wilbur Wood

3568
02:58:00,080 --> 02:58:02,080
an unfortunate

3569
02:58:02,080 --> 02:58:04,080
base on balls with two out

3570
02:58:04,080 --> 02:58:06,080
to a relatively

3571
02:58:06,080 --> 02:58:08,080
weak pinch hitter.

3572
02:58:08,080 --> 02:58:10,080
Relatively when you consider Billy Williams

3573
02:58:10,080 --> 02:58:12,080
and Ron Santo, whom he had just retired.

3574
02:58:12,080 --> 02:58:14,080
So that actually

3575
02:58:14,080 --> 02:58:16,080
cost them the ball again. And it

3576
02:58:16,080 --> 02:58:18,080
is one run, one hit

3577
02:58:18,080 --> 02:58:20,080
for the Chicago Cubs in the bottom

3578
02:58:20,080 --> 02:58:22,080
of the 12th. And they win the

3579
02:58:22,080 --> 02:58:24,080
City Series coming from behind

3580
02:58:24,080 --> 02:58:26,080
to nip the White Sox here in

3581
02:58:26,080 --> 02:58:54,080
12 innings, five to four.
