00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:14,000
The St. Louis Cardinals faced the New York Mets at Shea Stadium for a Tuesday night game on May 11, 1965.

3
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:19,000
The Cardinals were the defending champions, having defeated the Yankees in the 1964 World Series.

4
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,000
But things were in a bit of turmoil in St. Louis.

5
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:26,000
In August of 1964, the Cardinals were managed by Johnny Keene,

6
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:30,000
and with the Cardinals seemingly out of the race, team owner August Bush became convinced

7
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:37,000
that only a thorough housecleaning of Cardinal management would bring him the pennant that he had craved since he bought the team in 1953.

8
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:41,000
After accepting the resignations of almost every senior St. Louis front office executive,

9
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,000
manager Johnny Keene was spared.

10
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:50,000
But Bush was secretly negotiating with Dodgers manager Leo DeRoscher to become the manager for the 1965 season.

11
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,000
But the 1964 season wasn't over yet,

12
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:58,000
and the front-running Phillies, who had seemed to lock for the pennant with an eight-game lead on September 1,

13
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,000
unexpectedly began to unravel while the Cardinals got hot.

14
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:06,000
With one week to go in the season, Philadelphia came into St. Louis after losing seven straight at home

15
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:12,000
and were subsequently swept by the Cardinals, who notched their eighth straight win and moved into first place.

16
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:17,000
After winning the World Series on October 15, the Cardinals held a press conference the next day.

17
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,000
Most people expected that the team would formally announce a contract extension for Keene,

18
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:25,000
but instead Keene handed over a surprise letter of resignation.

19
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,000
The Cardinals then decided to bypass DeRoscher entirely,

20
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,000
and instead hired longtime favorite Red Shane Deist,

21
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:37,000
a Hall of Fame second baseman and one of Keene's coaches as the club's new manager for the 1965 season.

22
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:45,000
Casey Stengel was still manager of the Mets in 1965, despite three straight seasons of 120, 111, and 109 losses.

23
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:50,000
They tried a new strategy in 1965, which was probably nothing more than a marketing gimmick

24
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:55,000
by adding two legendary 40-year-olds to the roster, Yogi Berra and Warren Spahn.

25
00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:23,000
This audio recording is from the New York Radio broadcast featuring announcers Ralph Keiner, Lindsay Nelson, and Bob Murphy.

26
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,000
At this point, as Casey was coming out of the gymnasium, he fell on the concrete as he hung his spikes

27
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,000
and sustained a broken right wrist.

28
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:39,000
But he says that he's in great shape, and so coming out to present the lineup cards,

29
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,000
he took the sling off before he arrived at home place,

30
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:47,000
and he's now going over the ground rules with Ken Boyer, the captain of the St. Louis Cardinals.

31
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,000
Cardinals, of course, are the defending world champions.

32
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:55,000
But now on the field, Leonard Coppett, chairman of the Baseball Writers Association of America,

33
00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:01,000
New York Chapter, is presenting the Babe Ruth Award to Cardinal pitcher Bob Gibson.

34
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:08,000
Bob was warming up, and he's stop warming up to walk over now and take the plaque from Leonard Coppett.

35
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:13,000
As you know, last year, Bob Gibson won two games and lost one for the St. Louis Cardinals.

36
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,000
During the season, he won 19 games. He had a great World Series,

37
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:23,000
and this presentation is being made by the New York Chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America

38
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,000
on the basis of Bob Gibson's performance in the World Series last year.

39
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,000
And now the starting lineups and batting orders for tonight's game.

40
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,000

00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,000
He is off to a great start.

51
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:09,000

73
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:17,000
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave

74
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:34,000
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave

75
00:06:47,000 --> 00:07:00,000
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave

76
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:34,000
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave

77
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,000
Warren Spahn has beaten the Cardinals more than he has beaten any other club.

78
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,000
His lifetime record 63 wins and 29 losses against the Cardinals.

79
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,000
Mr. Gagliano is low for a ball.

80
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,000
Spahn again, works the pitch.

81
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,000
And it's low for a ball, 2-1.

82
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:22,000
Spahn has won 358 games, more than any other left-hand pitcher in the history of the Major League.

83
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:32,000
The 2-1 pitch, swung on it on the ground into left field for a base hit.

84
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:37,000
Taken there by Christopher and played back in and Gagliano turns the nose with a leadoff single.

85
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,000
It was drilled on the ground between Klaus and Macmillan.

86
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:45,000
Number 20, left fielder, Lou Brock.

87
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:49,000
Lou Brock is coming up now with an early season batting average of 303.

88
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,000
Two home runs and 11 runs batted in.

89
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,000
He hit 315 last year with the Cubs and the Cardinals.

90
00:08:54,000 --> 00:09:00,000
He was one of the big reasons that the St. Louis Cardinals made their way to the top of the heap in the National League.

91
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:04,000
Then won the World Series in competition with the New York Yankees.

92
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:09,000
Spahn checks Cranepool, holds against the runner at first and hears the pitch.

93
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,000
It is bunded down to third base line, taken by Klaus.

94
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:17,000
He guns it across to first in time, a sacrifice, and you score it 5-3.

95
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:24,000
That brings up Kurt Flood, who has been dropped down to the number three spot in the batting order.

96
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:29,000
Flood is hitting 300. He's had four home runs and 16 runs batted in,

97
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,000
so there's no particular reason why he shouldn't be hitting down there number three.

98
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,000
Normally he hits either leadoff or number two during the spring.

99
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:43,000
Manager Red Sheen, instead of the Cardinals, was batting Flood and Brock sort of interchangeably in the two top spots in the batting order.

100
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:48,000
Flood is a right-hand batter. Spahn checks the runner at second.

101
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,000
And the pitch is in there for a call strike.

102
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:59,000
Starting player tonight in the National League, the Los Angeles Dodgers are on top.

103
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,000
They have won 17 in last seven. They beat Houston last night.

104
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:06,000
Cincinnati Reds are two and a half games out. They won 14 in last nine.

105
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:10,000
The Houston Astros are three games out. They won 15 in last 11.

106
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,000
And the Phillies have won 12 in 11, four and a half games out.

107
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,000
Check swing foul ball into the seats and out of play.

108
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:24,000
The St. Louis Cardinals are in eighth place in the National League standings. They won 10 in last 13.

109
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,000
Six and a half games behind the league-leading Los Angeles Dodgers.

110
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:32,000
The New York Mets are a game and a half back of the Cardinals.

111
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:36,000
The Mets have won nine and lost 15. They are eight games out of first place.

112
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:43,000
And the Pittsburgh Pirates are in tenth place in the National League standings, a full game behind the New York Mets.

113
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:50,000
Spahn now checks. Two strike delivery to Kurt Flood.

114
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:54,000
A little number fouled off his ankle. It rolls out to the mound where it's taken by Spahn.

115
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:58,000
It's a foul ball and the count holds it two strikes.

116
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,000
Full schedule of night action in the National League.

117
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,000
Cincinnati is at Philadelphia.

118
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,000
Sartoros against Short.

119
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,000
Milwaukee is at Pittsburgh.

120
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,000
Houston on the coast against the Dodgers.

121
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,000
And the Cubs are in San Francisco against the Giants.

122
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,000
Right here, one man out and the runner at second.

123
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,000
No score, top half of the first inning.

124
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,000
Spahn's pitch, low and away for a ball.

125
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,000
One and two to Flood.

126
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,000
Full schedule of night action in the American League.

127
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,000
The Yankees are at Boston.

128
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,000

129
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,000

133
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,000
Los Angeles at Minnesota.

134
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,000
Kansas City and Chicago, not scheduled.

135
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,000
One-two pitch.

136
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,000
Let up and it goes high.

137
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,000
Two-two.

138
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,000
Change of speed by Warren Spahn.

139
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:57,000
Forty-four-year-old pitcher and pitching coach of the New York Mets.

140
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,000
On the coaching line for the Cardinals, Joe Schulz is at third base,

141
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,000
and Mickey Vernon is on the lines at first.

142
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,000
Here now is a two-two delivery, and it's high,

143
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,000
so the count goes full to Kurt Flood.

144
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:20,000
With Ken Boyer waiting on deck.

145
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,000
Spahn takes a moment now to work on the ball.

146
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,000
Beautiful baseball night here at Shea Stadium.

147
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:30,000
Plenty of room for you.

148
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,000
If you're in the vicinity, come on out and see the Cardinals and the Mets.

149
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,000
They play again tomorrow afternoon.

150
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,000
Game time tomorrow, 2 p.m.

151
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,000
This is a payoff.

152
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:42,000
It's to Kurt Flood.

153
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,000
It hits in the dirt in front of the plate.

154
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,000
Ball four.

155
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,000
Flood goes to first base with the base on balls.

156
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,000
As Warren Spahn was pulling down on that one,

157
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,000
and the ball hit in the dirt in front of the plate and was blocked by Countess Arrow.

158
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,000
With Gagliano holding at second base.

159
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,000
Kenny Boyer coming up.

160
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,000
Hitting 280.

161
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,000
Two home runs.

162
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,000
Eleven runs batted in.

163
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,000
Most valuable player in the National League last year.

164
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:15,000
One of seven brothers, all of whom have played or are playing professional baseball.

165
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,000
Spahn is up and set.

166
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,000
And the pitch.

167
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,000
Low for a ball.

168
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,000
Taking on a short hop by Chris Countess Arrow.

169
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,000
Waiting on that now is Dick Groats.

170
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:50,000
Manager Red Shandinst of the Cardinals was asked about his impressions of Warren Spahn in spring training.

171
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:54,000
The cards and the Mets both train in the city of St. Petersburg.

172
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:58,000
He said the only thing he saw bad about Spahn was his haircut.

173
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,000
Here's the 1-0 pitch, and it misses outside for a ball.

174
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:05,000
2-0.

175
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,000
Mets and the Cardinals see a lot of each other during spring training.

176
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:21,000
They play five exhibition games, and each team plays its exhibition games at Al Lang Field in St. Petersburg.

177
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,000
Here's the 2-0 pitch, and it's in for a cause strike.

178
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:31,000
2-1 to Ken Boyer, who doubts the call of umpire Augie Donatelli.

179
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:41,000
Boyer had been out of action with a back injury, but returned to the lineup recently.

180
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:45,000
Bill White also had been out, but White's back in the lineup.

181
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:50,000
Cardinals got off to a slow start.

182
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,000
2-1 pitch, swung on and hit in the air foul on the right field line.

183
00:14:54,000 --> 00:15:01,000
Lewis is over, but this one drifts into the seats and out of play, and the count holds at 2-2.

184
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:06,000
Ken Azzaro goes out to the mound now to have a word with Warren Spahn.

185
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:14,000
The Mets opening up this series with the Cardinals after having taken a series from the Milwaukee Braves.

186
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:21,000
The Mets won two of the three games with the Braves.

187
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:28,000
The Mets, of course, had split a series, a two-game series, with the Philadelphia Phillies.

188
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:35,000
So they're 3-2 on the home stand right now.

189
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:41,000
2-2 pitch, swung on and hit, he's stuck in the mound.

190
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:48,000
Spahn strikes out Ken Boyer. Jack Liano holds at second, flooded first, two away, and Dick Groat is coming up.

191
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:53,000
Groat is hitting 2-31. He has eight runs batted in.

192
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,000
1960, when the Pittsburgh Pirates won the National League Finals,

193
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:15,000
Dick Groat was the most valuable player in the National League, and he led the league in batting.

194
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:19,000
Here's a pitch, and it's in for a call from Patrick Groat.

195
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:31,000
Groat came to the Cardinals from the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for pitcher Don Cardwell and infielder Julio Gotai.

196
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:39,000
Spahn, yelling something out to Ron, he wants to relay some information out to Johnny Lewis, and he wants to position Lewis back.

197
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:45,000
Well, Spahn, of course, has been in the league long enough to know that Dick Groat's power is to the opposite field.

198
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:52,000
He takes that ball to right field a great deal, and so Spahn wanted Johnny Lewis playing a little deeper in right field.

199
00:16:52,000 --> 00:17:02,000
Here's a pitch swung on and popped up into short right, and Hunt goes back, and he's there, and Hunt makes the catch with Lewis just behind him.

200
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:09,000
And so the side is retired, and Ron Hunt made the catch.

201
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:17,000
No runs, one hit, no errors, two left, and the score at the end of a half inning is the Cardinals nothing and the Mets coming to bat.

202
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:22,000
And now it's time for another unusual fact from the Viceroy Hall of Records.

203
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,000
Let me tell you about a fellow who played ball back in the 80s.

204
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:34,000
His name was Old Hoss Radford, and in a single season he played first base, second, third, shortstop, and the outfield.

205
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:40,000
And incidentally, he pitched too. Matter of fact, as a pitcher, Old Hoss won 60 games that year.

206
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:46,000
And now here's the story of another winner, Viceroy. Viceroy has got the filter for the taste that's right.

207
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:56,000
If you're a filter smoker and you try smoking all seven leading brands, you'll find some taste too strong as if they didn't even have a filter, and some other brands taste too light.

208
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,000
They never seem to satisfy your taste.

209
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:06,000
But you take Viceroy now, Viceroy is not too strong and not too light. Viceroy has got the taste that's right. Right, singers?

210
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:15,000
Viceroy's got the taste that's right, not too strong and not too light, the taste that's right.

211
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,000
We're going to the bottom half of the first inning.

212
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:31,000
Bobby Klaus is going up the leadoff for the New York Mets. The Cardinals are on the field with Bill White at first, Bill Gagliano at second, Dick Brody at shortstop, and Ken Boyer at third.

213
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:37,000
Lou Brock is in left field, Kurt Flood is in center, and Mike Shannon is in right. Tim McCarver is the catcher.

214
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:43,000
Bob Gibson with a record of five victories, no losses, three of them shutouts.

215
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:52,000
He finished strong last year, won 19 games for the Cardinals, he won the 19th on the last day of the season when he was the winner in relief over the New York Mets.

216
00:18:52,000 --> 00:19:02,000
Pitches in there for a called strike. His last loss of last season was on the last Friday night when the Mets beat him 1-0. Al Jackson was the winning pitcher.

217
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:20,000
Again, Gibson with the pitch, swung on and missed his strike two. Klaus is hitting 1-58, he has one game-winning home run and four runs batted in.

218
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:26,000
Gibson looking for Tim McCarver's side.

219
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:38,000
Pitch is high and away for a ball, 1-2. Tim McCarver had quite a World Series himself, he hit 4-78 with the leading batter in the World Series.

220
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:43,000
Here's a 1-2 pitch, swung on and landed in the center for a face-hit for Bobby Klaus.

221
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:50,000
Guards by Kurt Flood, plays it back in, and Klaus has a lead-off single into center field.

222
00:19:50,000 --> 00:20:08,000
That brings up Ron Hut. Ron is hitting 2-81, he has had two doubles and one run batted in.

223
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:17,000
Bob Gibson on the mound tonight for the Cardinals, set a new series record for strikeouts in the World Series with 31, including 13 in the fifth game.

224
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:26,000
That's a figure that's been beaten only twice in all of World Series competition.

225
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:30,000
Off the stretch, Gibson's pitch to Hut is high for a ball.

226
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:37,000
Gibson struck out 245 last season during the regular season, second only in the National League to Pittsburgh's Bob Veale.

227
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:45,000
It was a Cardinal record.

228
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,000
Pitch is swung on and fouled out to the right side and out of play.

229
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:52,000
A 1-1 count to Ron Hut with Johnny Lewis waiting on deck.

230
00:20:52,000 --> 00:21:13,000
Yogi Berra is on the coaching lines at first base for the Mets, and Don Hefner is the Met coach at third.

231
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,000
Now the pitch, swung on and on the ground is short. Could be a double play.

232
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:20,000
Grote across to Gagliano for one to throw the first to double play.

233
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:26,000
It goes 6-4-3 if you're scoring. Two away, nobody on base, and Johnny Lewis coming up.

234
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:34,000
Enjoy the game with the Viceroy. Viceroy has got the filter for the taste that's right.

235
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:40,000
Johnny Lewis, who came to the Mets from the St. Louis Cardinals, is hitting 2-61 home run and eight runs batted in.

236
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,000
At this time last year, Johnny Lewis was the regular right fielder for the Cardinals.

237
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:49,000
Swings and hits the ground ball to second. Gagliano takes it, plays on to white and the side is out.

238
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:58,000
No runs, one hit, no errors, none left, and the score at the end of a full inning is the Cardinals nothing and the Mets nothing.

239
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:02,000
The Cardinals will be here tomorrow afternoon. Thursday is an off day.

240
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,000
And then the Mets are here Friday night against the Cincinnati Reds. Saturday afternoon against the Reds.

241
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:11,000
And a big Sunday doubleheader against the Cincinnati Reds to close out the current homestand.

242
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:18,000
Tickets are now on sale for any or all of those games, as well as all home games to be played by the Mets here at Shea Stadium this season.

243
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:25,000
The advance ticket window at Shea Stadium is open seven days a week. It's open weekdays from 8 to 6 and weekends from 9 to 5.

244
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:33,000
The Met ticket office at Pennsylvania Station is located in the Long Island Railroad waiting room, and it's open weekdays from 8 to 6 and Saturdays 8.30 to 4.

245
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:38,000
There is a Met ticket office at the Grand Central Terminal at the foot of the 42nd Street and Vanderval Avenue ramp.

246
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:42,000
Open weekdays 8 to 6 and Saturdays 8.30 to 4.

247
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:49,000
For Long Islanders, there is a Met ticket office at Macy's in Huntington. It's in the Walt Whitman Shopping Center, and it's open during the regular store hours.

248
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:56,000
Reservations can be made for box and reserve seats at any of the Howard Closed stores in the greater New York area.

249
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:10,000
And the top of the second, Bill White is up to lead off for the St. Louis Cardinals. He's hitting.256. He's at four home runs and 12 runs batted in.

250
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:16,000
Number 12, Bill White, number 12.

251
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:25,000
Last night, the Phillies beat the Cardinals 4 to 2 in ten innings in Philadelphia.

252
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:33,000
Swing and a ground ball foul, back of first. Mickey Vernon over, fields the ball and flips it to Craneville.

253
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:38,000
Mickey Vernon, coaching for the St. Louis Cardinals this year, was twice the batting champion of the American League.

254
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:43,000
Former Pittsburgh coach and former manager of the Washington Senators.

255
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:52,000
Dodgers beat Houston 3 to 2 last night in ten innings. Cincinnati and Pittsburgh postponed because of rain last night.

256
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:56,000
Pitch is a little tight. It's one and one to Bill White.

257
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:04,000
American League last night. Boston beat the Yankees 3-2. Detroit beat Baltimore 5-4. Minnesota beat the White Sox 4 to 3.

258
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:10,000
One-one pitch to left-hand batter Bill White. It's in there, front ball strikes.

259
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:15,000
One and two. So in the American League, the Minnesota Twins are on top.

260
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:24,000
The Chicago White Sox are a half game out and the Los Angeles Angels are a percentage points back of Chicago, a half game back of league leading Minnesota Twins.

261
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:33,000
The pitch breaks low and away and it's two and two now to White with Mike Shannon, the right fielder on deck.

262
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:49,000
Here's a 2-2 delivery. Swung on, second strikeout for the Fox.

263
00:24:49,000 --> 00:25:01,000
Mike Shannon, the right fielder, coming up hitting.091. He's been like 44 times and that's four hits, one run batter down.

264
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:11,000
Shannon was brought up last year from Jacksonville and was the regular right fielder during the stretch run and in the World Series for the St. Louis Cardinals.

265
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:23,000
Pitch is in for a tall strike. Strangely enough, it was the fine showing made by Mike Shannon when he was brought up that prevented the Cardinals from bringing Johnny Lewis back.

266
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:48,000
Strike one pitch, high for a ball. It's 1-1. Here's a 1-1 delivery and it's low for a ball.

267
00:25:48,000 --> 00:26:02,000
Seated in the Cardinal Club box just to the home plate side of the Cardinal dugout is Vice President Stan Musial. Cardinal Vice President Stan Musial and General Manager Bob Howsam of the Cardinals is there also.

268
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:18,000
Here's a 2-1 pitch, hand is low for a ball. Stan Musial, Bob Howsam and Manager Red Shandance helped raise a duplicate of the Cardinals World Championship flag over the Missouri Pavilion at the World's Fair today.

269
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:42,000
Spawn has gone behind to Shannon, three balls and one strike. 3-1 pitch, foul back and out of play. Full count of 3-2. Tim McCarver is waiting on deck now for the cards.

270
00:26:42,000 --> 00:27:10,000
This is a playoff pitch. Swung on it on the ground to McMillan at short. D, big hop, throws over low and Craneville digs it out on the short hop for the out just in time.

271
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:22,000
Played nicely on the pick up by Craneville at first base, two away. And Tim McCarver is about it, hitting 264 with one home run and four runs right at end.

272
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:51,000
Spawn's pitched to the left hand batter. It in the air to center field, Ron Swaboda back, he's there and he makes the catch.

273
00:27:52,000 --> 00:28:01,000
The Spawn gets the cards out in order and at the top of the second the runs no hits, no errors, none left. The score at the end of an inning and a half is the Cardinals nothing and the Mets nothing.

274
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:07,000
Is this one of those days when you're not yourself, even if you are, you'll feel more so when you listen to this.

275
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:17,000
Oh, I'm not myself at all, my dear, my dear, I'm not myself at all.

276
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:27,000
This song gets sung over and over at Irish parties and picnics until the singers raise a ferocious thirst. Then they change their tune.

277
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:38,000
Come fill up your glasses and drink what you will while the man gives up the everyday. This is a traditional Irish drinking song and often the beer they drink is Reingold extra dry.

278
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:46,000
In fact in New York City where there are more Irish than in the whole of Dublin, more people drink Reingold than any other beer.

279
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:53,000
And Reingold is going great in New Jersey, New England and Pennsylvania too. Why do Irish Americans like Reingold?

280
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:57,000
We don't know, but we must be doing something right.

281
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:05,000
I'm a man you don't meet every day, every day. I'm a man you don't meet every day.

282
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:15,000
Going now to the bottom half of the second inning and Joe Christopher is up to lead off for the New York Mets.

283
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:22,000
Joe is batting clean up tonight and managed to clear his singles batting order.

284
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:32,000
Bob Gibson's pitch swung on it on the ground to shortstop taken by Dick Grode played across to Bill White, there's one away.

285
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:45,000
And that will bring on Ed Cranepool, the first baseman.

286
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:52,000
Ed Cranepool is hitting 365, he has three home runs and 17 runs batted in.

287
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:56,000
Left hand batter facing right hand pitcher Bob Gibson.

288
00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:03,000
And it's fired in for a call strike. Ron Swabota is in the on deck circle swinging bats.

289
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:12,000
This pitch is low, it's in the dirt dug out by McCarver, it's one and one.

290
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:25,000
Cardinal defense plays Cranepool absolutely straight away.

291
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:44,000
This pitch is in for a call strike, good pitch by Bob Gibson.

292
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:52,000
There's a swing and a foul ball back and out of play. Last year Gibson won four lost one against the Mets, his lifetime record against the Mets is seven and two.

293
00:30:52,000 --> 00:31:00,000
Those two games that the Mets won from Gibson were each one nothing and Al Jackson was the Mets winning pitcher in each of those games.

294
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:13,000
One two pitch to Cranepool, foul back off the glove but McCarver he did not hold it so Cranepool is still alive.

295
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:24,000
Gibson is 29 years of age, alumnus of Creighton University.

296
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,000
Swing and a ball hit in the air to left field, right there at Lou Brock and he makes the catch.

297
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:36,000
Two away and nobody on base and Ron Swabota is the batter.

298
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,000
Hitting 286 with seven home runs and 14 runs batted in.

299
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:46,000
He's caught on, listen to the crowd reaction to the announcement of Swabota.

300
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:54,000
Well it proves what everybody's known for a long time, baseball fans like people who hit the ball a long way.

301
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:03,000
Here's the pitch in there for a call strike.

302
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:09,000
Swabota's a right hand batter.

303
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:14,000
Hits in there for a call strike.

304
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:22,000
Our Mr. Ralph Kiner has been given wide publicity as having said during his career you grab that bat way down on the handle where the Cadillacs are.

305
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:30,000
He didn't say that really, nobody else did but he was credited to Ralph, still is.

306
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:38,000
Roy McMillan's waiting on deck, two strike delivery and it's high for a ball, one and two.

307
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:48,000
There is no score in this game and we're in the bottom half of the second inning.

308
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:52,000
Pitch to Swabota is swung on and missed and the side is out.

309
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:57,000
That's a first strike out for Bob Gibson but he gets the side in order, no runs, no hits, no errors, none left.

310
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:02,000
The score at the end of two innings is the Cardinals nothing and the Mets nothing.

311
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:09,000
St. Louis Cardinals here again tomorrow afternoon and Jack Fisher is going to be pitching for the New York Mets and Kirk Simmons will go for the Cardinals.

312
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,000
Thursday is off and then the Cincinnati Reds will come in.

313
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:26,000
The Mets will be trying to get revenge because last weekend, the last weekend of the recent road trip in Cincinnati the Reds took four straight games from the New York Mets.

314
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:33,000
So the Reds will be in here on Friday night, Saturday afternoon and a doubleheader on Sunday and that will conclude the current home stand.

315
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,000
Tickets are now on sale for any or all of those games.

316
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,000
We're going to the third inning in just a moment, right now we pause for station identification.

317
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,000
This is the New York Mets baseball network.

318
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,000
This is WGY 810 on your dial in Schenectady.

319
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:52,000
Time is now 830, capital district temperature now 61, mostly cloudy.

320
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:58,000
This is Lindsay Nelson with Ralph Kiner and Bob Murphy at Shea Stadium in New York.

321
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,000
Two innings totals for the Cardinals, no runs, one hit, no errors.

322
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:03,000
For the Mets, no runs, one hit, no errors.

323
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:08,000
I'm coming in here now to take you along, the fellow we were talking about just a moment ago, Mr. Ralph Kiner.

324
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,000
Okay Lindsay and hi there everyone.

325
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:18,000
First man up will be Bob Gibson for the St. Louis Cardinals against Warren Spahn.

326
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,000
Bob a fine hitter for a pitcher, he has tremendous power.

327
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,000
So Warren will have to work.

328
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:28,000
And the first pitch by Spahn is in the center field, deep in the center field, way back in the room.

329
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,000
He can't get to it, it is off of the wall.

330
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,000
Gibson going to second base, now trying for third.

331
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,000
Here comes the throw that might have him, it's good, it's there, he's out.

332
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:58,000
Applause

333
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,000
Bob Gibson with a long double off the center field wall.

334
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:07,000
And when he tried to make it a three base hit, he was thrown out on a five relay.

335
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:20,000
Going from the center fielder Ron Swabota to Roy McMillan and then over to Bobby Clouse who took a throw in the dirt to make a fine play there to complete the out of third base.

336
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:26,000
Now with one away the batter will be Bill Gagliano and he takes low at ball one.

337
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:34,000
Applause

338
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,000
Gagliano with a base hit his first time up, one of the two hits given up by Spahn.

339
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,000
Next pitch is a high fly ball into shallow right center field.

340
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,000
Johnny Lewis calling for it and he makes the catch.

341
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:47,000
Applause

342
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:49,000
So quickly two away.

343
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:51,000
Applause

344
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:53,000
And it brings up Lou Brock.

345
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,000
Lou sacrificed his first time up his average at 3-0-3.

346
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,000
Applause

347
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:06,000
Cardinals got their first man on, Bill Gagliano in the first then bunned him to second base.

348
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:11,000
Kurt Flood who is the on deck batter right now, walks in the three two-pitch.

349
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:18,000
But then Lawrence Fahn settled on the strikeout Ken Boyer and picked up Dick Grode on a pop up at the second.

350
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:23,000
And the first pitch to Brock, it's down low ball one. One ball no strike.

351
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:25,000
Applause

352
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:29,000
Center fielder Ron Swabota playing a very shallow center field.

353
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:34,000
It was Lou Brock who put one in the center field seats in the Polo grounds a couple years back.

354
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,000
Next pitch back is inside corner, it's a strike.

355
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:42,000
Lou the only man to hit one in there on the right field side of center field.

356
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:46,000
Hank Aaron hit one in on the left field side and the first man to hit one in there.

357
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,000
Only three hit all together.

358
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,000
Joe Adcock, that was on the left field side too.

359
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:55,000
Now the 1-1 delivery, curve ball Goodwin on the outside corner.

360
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,000
Strike two, one ball two strikes.

361
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:03,000
Applause

362
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,000
Brock with two home runs, 11 runs batted in.

363
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,000
The club leader is Bill White with four home runs.

364
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:11,000
Applause

365
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,000
One ball two strikes, Lawrence Fahn pitching to Lou Brock.

366
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:17,000
Two men away, we're in the top of the third, no score.

367
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,000
And Fahn side arms, the pitch is popped up foul, out of play.

368
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:23,000
Applause

369
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,000
Chris Canazaro coming back and watching the ball go into the stands.

370
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,000
Well the Mets have four catchers on their roster.

371
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:36,000
Chris Canazaro, Hawk Taylor, Jesse Gunder and Yogi Berra.

372
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,000
And today is that day that all ball players dread.

373
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,000
It's cut down day, midnight tonight.

374
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,000
Mets will have to take two players off their roster.

375
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,000
Applause

376
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,000
The Mets have 12 pitchers they might cut there too.

377
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:54,000
Most clubs go in with 10.

378
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:56,000
Pitch back and hit slowly down to second.

379
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,000
Fahn-Hunn charging in quickly over to first base to retire to the side.

380
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:01,000
Applause

381
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,000
No runs, one hit, no errors, no one left on base and the score.

382
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,000
At the end of two and a half the Cardinals nothing, the Mets nothing.

383
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:11,000
And it's time now for another unusual fact with the Viceroy Hall of Records.

384
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:17,000
You know, it's a rare pitcher who wins over 200 games in his big league career.

385
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:23,000
But the great Cy Young made the record books with 291 wins in the National League and get this,

386
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:27,000
he had another 220 wins in the American League.

387
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,000
Cy was the winningest pitcher in baseball history.

388
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:36,000
And if you want to get the filter cigarette with the winningest taste of them all, it's Viceroy.

389
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,000
When you try Viceroy you just got to like them.

390
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:45,000
You see, Viceroy is specifically designed to taste the way you'd like a filter cigarette to taste.

391
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:51,000
Not too strong like some brands that taste as if they didn't have a filter and not too light like some others.

392
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:53,000
They just don't seem to satisfy your taste.

393
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:59,000
But when you light up a Viceroy you get the filter cigarette that's not too strong, not too light.

394
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,000
Viceroy's got the filter for the taste that's right.

395
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:06,000
Viceroy's got the taste that's right.

396
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,000
Not too strong and not too light.

397
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:11,000
The taste that's right.

398
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,000
Roy McMillan, the first man up for the Mets here and the third.

399
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,000
He looks at the first pitch of curveball for Bob Gibson.

400
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:21,000
It's in there for a call strike.

401
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,000
Roy batting for the first time batting 182, a right hand batter.

402
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,000
Gibson now into the windup and back again.

403
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,000
And again a curve for strike two.

404
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:32,000
Gibson has given up one hit.

405
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,000
A leadoff single to Bobby Klaus in the first.

406
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:37,000
He has struck out one.

407
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:39,000
Walk none.

408
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,000
So far has pitched to six batters through two innings.

409
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:44,000
Double play racing the base hit by Bobby Klaus.

410
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,000
And now the big right hander back again.

411
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,000
And the ball lying in the left center field.

412
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:52,000
Coming over Lou Brock.

413
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:54,000
He can't get it.

414
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:59,000
Backing him up a third flight and now Roy McMillan who was going to second holds up and a fast throw coming all the way into the pitcher's mouth.

415
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:07,000
Ball cut off by the second baseman Phil Gagliano and Roy decided not to go when he saw Kurt Flood back of Lou Brock.

416
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:11,000
Could admit it that of course he had no idea the throw would have been that bad.

417
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,000
No Roy a two strike single.

418
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:17,000
A second hit for the Mets no score in the game and the batter will be Bobby.

419
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:19,000
First.

420
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:26,000
First the catcher batting eighth in the batting order batting one forty three a right hand batter.

421
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:38,000
And the first pitch to Katasero swung on a missed strike one a fastball about letter high.

422
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:42,000
Chris looking for his first run battered in.

423
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,000
He is at seven it's forty nine times up.

424
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,000
Now checking with Don Heffner the third base coach.

425
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,000
On deck batter Warren Spahn.

426
00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:00,000
And a throw to first base finds McMillan back with no tag by Bill White.

427
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:02,000
Or the Cardinals white at first base.

428
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:04,000
Phil Gagliano at second base.

429
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,000
Dick Grode at shortstop and Ken Boyard third.

430
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:11,000
Tim McCarver the catcher sending out the signs again the first again no tag.

431
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:17,000
Gibson trying to hold McMillan close at first base in case of a hit run.

432
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:24,000
No score no one out we're in the bottom half of the third now the pitch.

433
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,000
It is taken in there for a called strike.

434
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,000
Scoring around a throw to one Chris Katasero.

435
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:32,000
So the cat now at oh and two.

436
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:33,000
Oh and two.

437
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:40,000
Oh and two.

438
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:43,000
McMillan at first base.

439
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:46,000
Where the two strike base is.

440
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,000
Now he's edging off Gibson to the plate.

441
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,000
And the pitch is a curveball looked at it's ball one.

442
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:55,000
It's just messy.

443
00:41:55,000 --> 00:42:01,000
One ball two strikes.

444
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:09,000
Bob Gibson who likes to work fast now taking just a little bit more time.

445
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:13,000
And now to the plate and he misses high with a fastball.

446
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:16,000
Count evens at two balls and two strikes.

447
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,000
The wind is blowing in from center field.

448
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:25,000
And the center fielder Kurt Flood who normally plays a very shallow center field extremely shallow against Chris Katasero.

449
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,000
Right fielder Mike Shannon also shallow.

450
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:30,000
Left fielder Lou Brock fairly deep and left.

451
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,000
Now to do a curveball is outside at all three.

452
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:41,000
Oh cat now and Chris checking with after as to whether or not the runner will be going on the pitch.

453
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:47,000
A little bit difficult to send a runner on Gibson because he strikes out many in the ballgame.

454
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,000
Miller the first base edging off.

455
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,000
He goes the pitch is taken by all.

456
00:42:56,000 --> 00:43:01,000
So Roy McCullin who is running moving down the second base on the walk to Chris Katasero.

457
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:05,000
That's what runners at first and second with no one out and more fun coming up.

458
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:10,000
One about a one fifty four to hit some 13 times up one of the hits that you base it.

459
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:17,000
And boy are the third baseman already and looking for the fun as is Bill White.

460
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:18,000
No score in the game.

461
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:20,000
Spawn squares around.

462
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,000
And the third baseman is going to be the third baseman.

463
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,000
And the third baseman is going to be the third baseman.

464
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,000
And the third baseman is going to be the third baseman.

465
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:34,000
As well as past we can see all the straightforward thoughts well in the last year on.

466
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,000
When many have gone to third base as and for the second baseman already.

467
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:42,000
Looking for the but as is Bill White helped for the game was squares around.

468
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:47,000
How about Gibson Sehra does not go to either second or third to breath.

469
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:53,000
So at the great event are we information was confusing complained.

470
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:54,240
there was no one there and he

471
00:43:54,240 --> 00:43:55,040
had to go to first.

472
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:56,200
Oh the Mets move up their

473
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:56,600
runners.

474
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:57,700
They have them at second and

475
00:43:57,700 --> 00:43:59,800
third was one out and on the

476
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:00,200
play.

477
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:02,280
It went one for.

478
00:44:09,620 --> 00:44:11,280
Bond credited with a sacrifice

479
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:12,260
in the batter coming up with

480
00:44:12,260 --> 00:44:12,920
Bobby Clough.

481
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:19,160
Bobby with a single his first

482
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:21,260
time up raising his average to

483
00:44:21,260 --> 00:44:22,100
one sixty nine.

484
00:44:22,100 --> 00:44:23,100
He's a little through the

485
00:44:23,100 --> 00:44:23,360
middle.

486
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:26,360
Cardinals are playing their

487
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:27,700
infield back at second and

488
00:44:27,700 --> 00:44:28,800
third their infield in the

489
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:30,600
first and third second and

490
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:30,880
short.

491
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:34,840
And the first best the class is

492
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:35,440
off the handle.

493
00:44:36,180 --> 00:44:37,580
Passball jammed in tight

494
00:44:37,580 --> 00:44:38,220
strike one.

495
00:44:44,660 --> 00:44:46,080
Cardinals no runs to it.

496
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:47,520
The Mets no runs and two hits

497
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:48,720
with the Mets with runners at

498
00:44:48,720 --> 00:44:50,120
second and third with one out

499
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:51,200
here in the bottom half of the

500
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:51,700
third.

501
00:44:53,300 --> 00:44:54,960
Gibson into the windup and back

502
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:56,800
again and a curve ball hit

503
00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:57,160
foul.

504
00:44:57,660 --> 00:44:59,240
Pioneer the left side out of

505
00:44:59,240 --> 00:44:59,600
play.

506
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:05,380
And Tim McArthur going out to

507
00:45:05,380 --> 00:45:06,580
the pitcher's mound to talk with

508
00:45:06,580 --> 00:45:09,280
Bob Gibson to strike down on

509
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:09,940
Bobby Clough.

510
00:45:18,020 --> 00:45:19,660
Tim McArthur after the

511
00:45:19,660 --> 00:45:21,500
conversation coming back to home

512
00:45:21,500 --> 00:45:21,820
play.

513
00:45:24,860 --> 00:45:26,460
Hope with umpire in this game

514
00:45:26,460 --> 00:45:26,740
tonight.

515
00:45:27,660 --> 00:45:29,160
A new crew in here headed by

516
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:30,540
Al Barley at third base.

517
00:45:31,660 --> 00:45:33,400
Stan Lannis at first base Mel

518
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:34,800
Steiner second a curve ball

519
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:35,440
checked on it.

520
00:45:36,740 --> 00:45:37,940
Breaking pitch Bobby was

521
00:45:37,940 --> 00:45:39,280
starting to swing and held off

522
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:40,040
Justin time.

523
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:48,020
Now at one ball and two strikes.

524
00:45:48,020 --> 00:45:50,020
Oh I think on that third base.

525
00:45:51,020 --> 00:45:52,300
Chris Canna zero at second.

526
00:45:55,860 --> 00:45:57,360
Gibson reading the signs from

527
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:58,840
Tim McArthur now into the windup

528
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:00,700
his next pitch curve way inside.

529
00:46:01,540 --> 00:46:03,040
So the cat now has two balls and

530
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:09,980
two strikes and he started off

531
00:46:09,980 --> 00:46:11,640
with Roy McMillan getting the

532
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,380
two strikes single in the left

533
00:46:13,380 --> 00:46:13,640
field.

534
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:15,920
Chris Canna zero then why.

535
00:46:19,420 --> 00:46:20,880
Five wins and no losses this

536
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:21,120
year.

537
00:46:22,660 --> 00:46:23,560
Three of them shut out.

538
00:46:23,580 --> 00:46:24,960
There's a two to pitch again.

539
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:26,700
It's foul off to the right side.

540
00:46:27,020 --> 00:46:28,360
Oh Bobby Clough saying stuff.

541
00:46:30,460 --> 00:46:31,600
Staying in there the catcher

542
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:33,100
holding the two balls and two

543
00:46:33,100 --> 00:46:33,400
strikes.

544
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:39,740
Anything out the right field in

545
00:46:39,740 --> 00:46:41,140
the air would have to be fairly

546
00:46:41,140 --> 00:46:42,280
deep because Mike Shannon the

547
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:43,480
right fielder there was one of

548
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:44,680
the best times in baseball.

549
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:46,540
He's also playing the shallow

550
00:46:46,540 --> 00:46:47,120
right field.

551
00:46:47,620 --> 00:46:48,620
Kurt Flood shallow and

552
00:46:48,620 --> 00:46:49,080
centerfield.

553
00:46:49,380 --> 00:46:50,880
Lou Brock deep and left.

554
00:46:51,380 --> 00:46:53,860
Now a two to fastball one on a

555
00:46:53,860 --> 00:46:54,820
miss like three.

556
00:46:55,820 --> 00:46:57,220
So Bob Gibson picks up an

557
00:46:57,220 --> 00:46:59,260
important strikeout at the

558
00:46:59,260 --> 00:47:00,160
second in this game.

559
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:01,600
And it brings up Ron Hunt with

560
00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:09,200
two in a way Ron hit into a

561
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:10,680
double play his first time up.

562
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:12,200
He's betting at two seventy

563
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:13,380
three a right hand batter with

564
00:47:13,380 --> 00:47:14,880
no home runs and one run better

565
00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:22,820
than all score on bottom half of

566
00:47:22,820 --> 00:47:24,220
the third and the first pitcher

567
00:47:24,220 --> 00:47:25,660
breaking pitch in first strike.

568
00:47:26,460 --> 00:47:27,720
Gibson with a hard slider at

569
00:47:27,720 --> 00:47:35,720
strike one infield deep all the

570
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:36,960
way around except the third

571
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:38,400
lawyer protecting against a

572
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:38,660
bunch.

573
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:40,200
Next pitch back inside a

574
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:42,440
fastball this time one ball one

575
00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:42,740
strike.

576
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:50,680
I'm a villain that you know off

577
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:51,240
at third base.

578
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,180
Chris Cantazero a short lead at

579
00:47:53,180 --> 00:47:53,680
second.

580
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:55,380
Gibson taking the signs from Tim

581
00:47:55,380 --> 00:47:58,160
McCarver and not taking a

582
00:47:58,160 --> 00:47:59,660
little too much time and Ron

583
00:47:59,660 --> 00:48:01,060
Hunt calls time straight out the

584
00:48:01,060 --> 00:48:05,760
batter's box time back in and

585
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:07,560
now the 1 1 delivery fastball

586
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:08,300
hit down the short.

587
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,960
It goes over the first base for

588
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,300
the out to retire the side in

589
00:48:13,300 --> 00:48:14,800
the ending the Mets leave two on

590
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:15,800
the base hit in the walk.

591
00:48:16,100 --> 00:48:17,300
There were no errors in the

592
00:48:17,300 --> 00:48:17,900
first base.

593
00:48:18,140 --> 00:48:19,200
The second base hit the

594
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:23,820
second base hit the third base

595
00:48:23,820 --> 00:48:25,340
in the ending the Mets leave two

596
00:48:25,340 --> 00:48:26,420
on the base hit in the walk.

597
00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:28,280
There were no errors the score

598
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:29,140
at the end of three.

599
00:48:30,420 --> 00:48:31,960
The Mets nothing the Cardinals

600
00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:32,460
nothing.

601
00:48:33,020 --> 00:48:34,320
Are you one of those people who

602
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:36,160
go to a German American picnic

603
00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:37,460
and can't sing because you don't

604
00:48:37,460 --> 00:48:52,460
know the song.

605
00:48:52,940 --> 00:48:53,840
They're common.

606
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,280
In the Himmel is a song that

607
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:57,980
gets sung over and over at

608
00:48:57,980 --> 00:49:00,340
German parties and picnics until

609
00:49:00,340 --> 00:49:01,920
the singers raise a fearful

610
00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:02,420
thirst.

611
00:49:02,420 --> 00:49:08,300
Beer here is the traditional

612
00:49:08,300 --> 00:49:10,500
German call for beer and often

613
00:49:10,500 --> 00:49:11,740
it's Ryan Gold extra dry they

614
00:49:11,740 --> 00:49:12,340
call for.

615
00:49:12,900 --> 00:49:14,940
In fact in New York City where

616
00:49:14,940 --> 00:49:16,500
there are more Germans than in

617
00:49:16,540 --> 00:49:19,140
all of Heidelberg more people

618
00:49:19,140 --> 00:49:20,740
drink angle than any other beer

619
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:22,680
and Ryan Gold is doing great in

620
00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:23,840
New Jersey New England and

621
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:24,920
Pennsylvania too.

622
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:27,160
Why do German Americans like

623
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:27,680
Ryan Gold.

624
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:30,420
We don't know but we must be

625
00:49:30,420 --> 00:49:37,220
doing something right.

626
00:49:37,460 --> 00:49:39,060
Top of the fourth no score as

627
00:49:39,060 --> 00:49:40,660
Bob Gibson and Warren's bond

628
00:49:40,660 --> 00:49:42,300
dual away here at Shea Stadium

629
00:49:42,900 --> 00:49:44,140
born on the mound for the Mets

630
00:49:44,140 --> 00:49:45,860
will face Kurt Flood Ken Boyer

631
00:49:45,860 --> 00:49:48,340
and Dick Grode here and he goes

632
00:49:48,340 --> 00:49:49,540
into the first lineup and his

633
00:49:49,540 --> 00:49:50,100
first pitch.

634
00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:52,900
It's a curve ball low for ball

635
00:49:52,900 --> 00:49:53,180
one.

636
00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:55,240
Kurt Flood walked in the three

637
00:49:55,240 --> 00:49:56,880
two pitchers first time up his

638
00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:57,940
average at three hundred.

639
00:49:57,940 --> 00:49:59,220
He's got a lot of home runs.

640
00:50:00,420 --> 00:50:03,180
Yes for home runs 16 runs batted

641
00:50:03,180 --> 00:50:04,860
in a lot of home runs for Kurt

642
00:50:07,060 --> 00:50:08,320
and the next pitch is lined to

643
00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:09,920
left field a base hit Joe

644
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:11,360
Christopher over on one knee to

645
00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:11,860
block it.

646
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:13,560
He comes up with it throws it on

647
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:13,760
in.

648
00:50:14,460 --> 00:50:16,160
Oh Kurt Flood leads off here in

649
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:17,200
the top of the fourth with a

650
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:17,600
base hit.

651
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:21,600
That's the third hit off Warren's

652
00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:28,580
side of the field Ken Boyer can

653
00:50:28,580 --> 00:50:29,980
struck out on the screw ball as

654
00:50:29,980 --> 00:50:37,380
first time up his own for one

655
00:50:38,420 --> 00:50:40,620
taking his average that to seventy

656
00:50:40,620 --> 00:50:48,160
six right hand better most

657
00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:49,560
valuable player the runner goes

658
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:51,060
and the pitch fouled off strike

659
00:50:51,060 --> 00:50:52,440
and the run play put on by the

660
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:54,800
Cardinals but spawn picks up a

661
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:55,200
strike.

662
00:51:04,940 --> 00:51:06,420
Speaking about floods home runs

663
00:51:06,420 --> 00:51:08,040
last year he had a total of five

664
00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:09,680
for the whole season already as

665
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:13,360
for house pond checking the

666
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:15,560
signs flood already off at first

667
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:16,660
spot not even on the Fitchy

668
00:51:16,660 --> 00:51:18,060
River he goes to first base but

669
00:51:18,060 --> 00:51:22,760
he's got to get back by that you

670
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:27,040
know now again on strike down

671
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:31,000
and Ken Boyer and spawn to the

672
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,140
plate the pitch inside one ball

673
00:51:33,140 --> 00:51:35,080
one strike and a zero faking a

674
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:38,740
throw to first base no score in

675
00:51:38,740 --> 00:51:40,740
this game no one away top of the

676
00:51:40,740 --> 00:51:42,220
fourth other games in the

677
00:51:42,220 --> 00:51:43,320
National League Cincinnati

678
00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:44,520
nothing Philadelphia nothing

679
00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:45,420
after one and a half.

680
00:51:45,420 --> 00:51:47,820
Its third time to hear everybody

681
00:51:47,820 --> 00:51:49,220
score against the 못raه sun

682
00:51:49,220 --> 00:51:51,880
and Florence Spurs against short

683
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:54,060
Milwaukee nothing Pittsburgh

684
00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:55,340
nothing after one watching gaming

685
00:51:55,340 --> 00:51:56,900
against Cardinal now to run

686
00:51:56,900 --> 00:51:58,460
score in the national league so

687
00:51:58,460 --> 00:52:01,860
far won one delivery a pitch on

688
00:52:01,860 --> 00:52:02,960
Floyd draws a throw for his

689
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:04,560
face but he gets back in time

690
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:11,000
scheduled in the national league

691
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:12,300
Houston against Los Angeles

692
00:52:12,300 --> 00:52:18,500
Dodgers leading the National League by two and a half games over Cincinnati and Cincinnati in here this weekend for Friday night

693
00:52:19,020 --> 00:52:21,020
Saturday afternoon and Sunday doubleheader

694
00:52:23,460 --> 00:52:26,220
Two balls and one strike one again with a lead at first

695
00:52:26,860 --> 00:52:30,140
And spawn to the plate and the pitch is low. It's ball three

696
00:52:30,980 --> 00:52:33,340
So spawn three and one against Ken Boyer

697
00:52:33,340 --> 00:52:43,560
In the American leg Yankees out with no runs in two and the third innings to a mega tuna happening

698
00:52:45,820 --> 00:52:50,660
Boston no runs in two. It's nothing nothing after two and a half Saddam our against Wilson Detroit nothing

699
00:52:51,020 --> 00:52:53,880
Washington nothing after one and a half Wickersham against Kreitzer

700
00:52:54,220 --> 00:53:00,540
Even nothing Baltimore nothing after two and a half Terry against barber. So there hasn't been a run scored in the Major League so far tonight

701
00:53:00,540 --> 00:53:07,540
Throw the first base flat back not too much trouble also scheduled in the National League Los Angeles at Minnesota

702
00:53:08,540 --> 00:53:10,540
Kansas City Chicago not scheduled

703
00:53:11,540 --> 00:53:17,540
Three balls one strike one with a big lead. He draws another throw. It's fairly close, but he's back in time

704
00:53:19,540 --> 00:53:22,540
What takes about as big a lead as you can take

705
00:53:25,540 --> 00:53:27,540
Now he has shortened up

706
00:53:27,540 --> 00:53:33,540
And spawn steps off the pitching rubber blood goes a little bit closer to first base now a quick throw to first but not in time

707
00:53:34,540 --> 00:53:38,540
Come on anticipating a hit and run play right here. He's trying to pick something up at first

708
00:53:41,540 --> 00:53:46,540
Now he sets again and the three one pitch with the runner going is fouled away

709
00:53:46,540 --> 00:53:53,540
All going out of play on the first base side the cat goes up to three balls and two strikes and blood goes back to first

710
00:53:59,540 --> 00:54:02,540
Cardinals don't run three hits a mess no runs in two

711
00:54:04,540 --> 00:54:06,540
Going out top of the fourth

712
00:54:06,540 --> 00:54:14,540
On deck batter Jake growth and flood again with that lead and again. He draws a throw and he's back safely

713
00:54:20,540 --> 00:54:23,540
Three balls two strikes on sets again

714
00:54:25,540 --> 00:54:27,540
He's back safely

715
00:54:27,540 --> 00:54:34,540
Three balls two strikes on sets again and the pitch with a runner going is in the center field shallow center

716
00:54:35,540 --> 00:54:38,540
On Swabota moving and calling for and he makes the catch

717
00:54:44,540 --> 00:54:48,540
On hanging tight picking up Ken Boyer now he'll fix the dick drop

718
00:54:48,540 --> 00:54:51,540
But back the first base after the cat

719
00:54:52,540 --> 00:54:54,540
And right here again a hit and run man

720
00:54:55,540 --> 00:54:59,540
Dick growth big batting to 28. He's off to a very slow start

721
00:55:04,540 --> 00:55:07,540
Shortstop Roy McMillan has a good start

722
00:55:08,540 --> 00:55:11,540
And the catch is a hit and run play

723
00:55:11,540 --> 00:55:20,540
Very slow start shortstop Roy McMillan has shortened up in his position

724
00:55:21,540 --> 00:55:27,540
The runner goes the pitches hit in the center field fairly deep changes the water back by the warning track. He has room and he makes the catch

725
00:55:28,540 --> 00:55:31,540
But who is all the way down the second base back to first

726
00:55:31,540 --> 00:55:35,540
To a way down it brings up Bill White Bill was curved out his first time up

727
00:55:37,540 --> 00:55:40,540
Adding a 253 with four home runs and 12 runs better than

728
00:55:40,540 --> 00:55:48,360
Why the left hand batter no Scarlett game Dent Awesome

729
00:55:48,220 --> 00:55:50,140
He's missed this run already

730
00:55:49,540 --> 00:55:52,540
a

731
00:55:54,540 --> 00:55:57,540
Bramot

732
00:56:06,540 --> 00:56:07,460
McDermott

733
00:56:07,540 --> 00:56:08,540
is

734
00:56:07,540 --> 00:56:08,540
Ha

735
00:56:08,540 --> 00:56:11,540
first and the pitch to why it is

736
00:56:11,540 --> 00:56:12,540
on the inside corner throw the

737
00:56:12,540 --> 00:56:14,540
first base with blood back

738
00:56:14,540 --> 00:56:18,540
ahead of the deck one strike

739
00:56:18,540 --> 00:56:19,540
down at Bill White.

740
00:56:25,540 --> 00:56:26,540
That's a determined to work

741
00:56:26,540 --> 00:56:29,540
around on Kurt's blood at first

742
00:56:29,540 --> 00:56:33,540
base again he leads off and Spahn

743
00:56:33,540 --> 00:56:34,540
steps off the pitching rubber

744
00:56:34,540 --> 00:56:36,540
that moves him back just a little

745
00:56:36,540 --> 00:56:43,540
bit low on sets again and the

746
00:56:43,540 --> 00:56:45,540
one strike delivery is too low

747
00:56:45,540 --> 00:56:46,540
breaking pitch below the knees

748
00:56:46,540 --> 00:56:47,540
one ball and one strike.

749
00:56:53,540 --> 00:56:54,540
What led off the any with a

750
00:56:54,540 --> 00:56:59,540
single the left field and Ken

751
00:56:59,540 --> 00:57:00,540
Boyer flat out the center field

752
00:57:00,540 --> 00:57:02,540
shallow center field on a three

753
00:57:02,540 --> 00:57:03,540
two pitch that growed out the

754
00:57:03,540 --> 00:57:05,540
deep center field on the first

755
00:57:05,540 --> 00:57:06,540
pitch and now they can't one

756
00:57:06,540 --> 00:57:07,540
ball and one strike and Bill

757
00:57:07,540 --> 00:57:09,540
White side arm fastball hit the

758
00:57:09,540 --> 00:57:11,540
short second base and he catches

759
00:57:11,540 --> 00:57:13,540
the ball little looping ball

760
00:57:13,540 --> 00:57:15,540
off the handle of Ron Hunt.

761
00:57:15,540 --> 00:57:19,540
We retire the side no runs on

762
00:57:19,540 --> 00:57:20,540
one hit no errors one man left

763
00:57:20,540 --> 00:57:22,540
and the score at the end of

764
00:57:22,540 --> 00:57:23,540
three and a half the card knows

765
00:57:23,540 --> 00:57:25,540
nothing the Mets nothing.

766
00:57:26,540 --> 00:57:27,540
It's very hard to sell sheet

767
00:57:27,540 --> 00:57:29,540
music in Jamaica and make up

768
00:57:29,540 --> 00:57:31,540
songs wherever they need them

769
00:57:31,540 --> 00:57:32,540
like this.

770
00:57:32,540 --> 00:57:34,540
Having a party eating rice and

771
00:57:34,540 --> 00:57:37,540
peas and dancing happily as you

772
00:57:37,540 --> 00:57:39,540
please charming lady with a very

773
00:57:39,540 --> 00:57:40,540
nice pile.

774
00:57:40,540 --> 00:57:43,540
I'll talk to her for a while

775
00:57:43,540 --> 00:57:45,540
I'll talk to her for a while

776
00:57:45,540 --> 00:57:47,540
when Jamaicans get together for

777
00:57:47,540 --> 00:57:49,540
a party the beat is calypso and

778
00:57:49,540 --> 00:57:50,540
the songs are made up on the

779
00:57:50,540 --> 00:57:51,540
spot.

780
00:57:51,540 --> 00:57:53,540
The party was hilarious as it

781
00:57:53,540 --> 00:57:55,540
could be but in the morning

782
00:57:55,540 --> 00:57:57,540
there was news for me the penny

783
00:57:57,540 --> 00:57:59,540
was a man's wedding tune on his

784
00:57:59,540 --> 00:58:01,540
wife the smiling lady is now my

785
00:58:01,540 --> 00:58:04,540
wife the smiling lady is now my

786
00:58:04,540 --> 00:58:06,540
wife and when the singer finds

787
00:58:06,540 --> 00:58:08,540
his throat a little dry

788
00:58:08,540 --> 00:58:09,540
something refreshing will be

789
00:58:09,540 --> 00:58:11,540
improvised probably Reingold

790
00:58:11,540 --> 00:58:13,540
beer in New York City where

791
00:58:13,540 --> 00:58:15,540
there are more different kinds

792
00:58:15,540 --> 00:58:17,540
of people than in any other city

793
00:58:17,540 --> 00:58:19,540
in the world more people drink

794
00:58:19,540 --> 00:58:20,540
Reingold extra dry than any

795
00:58:20,540 --> 00:58:22,540
other beer and Reingold is going

796
00:58:22,540 --> 00:58:24,540
great in New Jersey New England

797
00:58:24,540 --> 00:58:25,540
and Pennsylvania too.

798
00:58:25,540 --> 00:58:27,540
Why do Jamaicans like Reingold

799
00:58:27,540 --> 00:58:29,540
we don't know but we must be

800
00:58:29,540 --> 00:58:34,540
doing something right.

801
00:58:34,540 --> 00:58:35,540
Bottom half of the fourth Johnny

802
00:58:35,540 --> 00:58:37,540
Lewis lead off for the Mets

803
00:58:37,540 --> 00:58:41,540
against Bob Gibson Johnny 0 for

804
00:58:41,540 --> 00:58:42,540
one a left hand battered he hits

805
00:58:42,540 --> 00:58:44,540
the first pitch to left field

806
00:58:44,540 --> 00:58:45,540
high in the air fairly deep back

807
00:58:45,540 --> 00:58:49,540
in the warning track is rock and

808
00:58:49,540 --> 00:58:50,540
he makes the catch that ball was

809
00:58:50,540 --> 00:58:52,540
up there a long high fly ball

810
00:58:52,540 --> 00:58:59,540
for our number one one pitch and

811
00:58:59,540 --> 00:59:00,540
one away and Joe Christopher

812
00:59:00,540 --> 00:59:08,540
comes in Joe grounded out of the

813
00:59:08,540 --> 00:59:10,540
shortstop on one pitches first

814
00:59:10,540 --> 00:59:12,540
time up hit the ball fairly

815
00:59:12,540 --> 00:59:19,540
He's batting at two twenty eight

816
00:59:19,540 --> 00:59:21,540
and the first pitch has taken

817
00:59:21,540 --> 00:59:23,540
ball one Christopher moving out

818
00:59:23,540 --> 00:59:25,540
to decoy a fun on Ken Boyer who

819
00:59:25,540 --> 00:59:26,540
is playing a fairly shallow

820
00:59:26,540 --> 00:59:34,540
third base and now Gibson back

821
00:59:34,540 --> 00:59:36,540
again and a slider is outside

822
00:59:36,540 --> 00:59:38,540
his two balls no strike Bob has

823
00:59:38,540 --> 00:59:40,540
given up two hits one of the

824
00:59:40,540 --> 00:59:44,540
first one of the third he has

825
00:59:44,540 --> 00:59:47,540
struck out two and walked one

826
00:59:47,540 --> 00:59:49,540
and the right hander back with a

827
00:59:49,540 --> 00:59:51,540
breaking pitch again strike one

828
00:59:51,540 --> 00:59:52,540

837
01:00:21,540 --> 01:00:24,540
to pitch his head on the first

838
01:00:24,540 --> 01:00:26,540
base side and foul territory

839
01:00:26,540 --> 01:00:27,540
Bill White over by the coaching

840
01:00:27,540 --> 01:00:30,540
box and he makes it get Christopher

841
01:00:30,540 --> 01:00:32,540
tried to hold up in a swing and

842
01:00:32,540 --> 01:00:33,540
that one got the bat too far

843
01:00:33,540 --> 01:00:35,540
around and popped it up now with

844
01:00:35,540 --> 01:00:37,540
two down it'll bring up Eddie

845
01:00:37,540 --> 01:00:46,540
Crane ball at batting three sixty

846
01:00:46,540 --> 01:00:47,540
he leads the club and runs better

847
01:00:47,540 --> 01:00:49,540
than with 17 he has three home

848
01:00:49,540 --> 01:00:53,540
runs Cardinals nothing to miss

849
01:00:53,540 --> 01:00:55,540
nothing and the first pitch is a

850
01:00:55,540 --> 01:00:58,540
curve ball for strike one I'll

851
01:00:58,540 --> 01:01:00,540
get on a telly right down on the

852
01:01:00,540 --> 01:01:02,540
ground and call the pitches

853
01:01:02,540 --> 01:01:06,540
umpire behind home plate and the

854
01:01:06,540 --> 01:01:08,540
next pitch back is high one ball

855
01:01:08,540 --> 01:01:15,540

course nationally umpires as low

859
01:01:22,540 --> 01:01:23,540
as I can get a let up is in the

860
01:01:23,540 --> 01:01:26,540
dirt it's ball to two balls and

861
01:01:26,540 --> 01:01:35,540
one strike rainbow flat out the

862
01:01:35,540 --> 01:01:36,540
deep left field his first time

863
01:01:36,540 --> 01:01:38,540
up fairly deep not bad by the

864
01:01:38,540 --> 01:01:39,540
warning track but deep enough

865
01:01:39,540 --> 01:01:41,540
and he has a hard swing at a

866
01:01:41,540 --> 01:01:47,540
fastball two balls two strikes

867
01:01:47,540 --> 01:01:54,540
on deck better runs for both

868
01:01:54,540 --> 01:01:55,540
now Gibson into the big windup

869
01:01:55,540 --> 01:01:56,540
and his next pitch is a curve

870
01:01:56,540 --> 01:01:58,540
ball hit the shallow left field

871
01:01:58,540 --> 01:02:00,540
little Brock moving in now

872
01:02:00,540 --> 01:02:02,540
coming up a little faster and he

873
01:02:02,540 --> 01:02:03,540
makes the catch to retire the

874
01:02:03,540 --> 01:02:06,540
side one two three for Bob Gibson

875
01:02:06,540 --> 01:02:08,540

personnel moves made throughout the

moves to get down to the squad limit

929
01:03:52,540 --> 01:03:53,540
and we'll tell you about them as we

930
01:03:53,540 --> 01:03:58,540
learn of them now the pitch is in

931
01:03:58,540 --> 01:04:02,540

times and had four hits so far this

935
01:04:10,540 --> 01:04:16,540
season is a swing and a drive to

936
01:04:16,540 --> 01:04:18,540
deep left center but Ron Swoboda is

937
01:04:18,540 --> 01:04:19,540
over there near the edge of the

938
01:04:19,540 --> 01:04:20,540
winding track he's called he makes

939
01:04:20,540 --> 01:04:22,540
the catch there's one away that'll

940
01:04:22,540 --> 01:04:24,540
bring up Tim McCarver who's been up

941
01:04:24,540 --> 01:04:25,540
one time and fly it out to center

942
01:04:25,540 --> 01:04:31,540
field a carver is a left hand batter

943
01:04:35,540 --> 01:04:37,540
so far the Yankees have recalled

944
01:04:37,540 --> 01:04:39,540
infield a Harris Clark and a player

945
01:04:39,540 --> 01:04:41,540
move the Washington Senators have

946
01:04:41,540 --> 01:04:43,540
given Roy Sebers his unconditional

947
01:04:43,540 --> 01:04:45,540
release they have returned pitcher

948
01:04:45,540 --> 01:04:47,540
Dallas Green to the Phillies they

949
01:04:47,540 --> 01:04:49,540
have sent pitcher Nick Wilhite to

950
01:04:49,540 --> 01:04:53,540
Spokane

951
01:04:53,540 --> 01:04:56,540
Spon's pitch is low for a ball to

952
01:04:56,540 --> 01:04:59,540
Tim McCarver the Cleveland Indians

953
01:04:59,540 --> 01:05:01,540
have sent pitchers Stan Williams to

954
01:05:01,540 --> 01:05:03,540
Portland and Williams and they got

955
01:05:03,540 --> 01:05:05,540
from the Yankees and the Yankees got

956
01:05:05,540 --> 01:05:07,540
him from the Los Angeles Dodgers and

957
01:05:07,540 --> 01:05:08,540
now the Indians have since and

958
01:05:08,540 --> 01:05:14,540
Williams to Portland

959
01:05:14,540 --> 01:05:16,540
and the pitch is in for a called

960
01:05:16,540 --> 01:05:19,540
strike already the Cardinals are

961
01:05:19,540 --> 01:05:21,540
down to their 25 player limit and

962
01:05:21,540 --> 01:05:22,540
they got down to the 25 player

963
01:05:22,540 --> 01:05:24,540
limit by sending left hand pitcher

964
01:05:24,540 --> 01:05:26,540
Dave Dowling on waivers to the

965
01:05:26,540 --> 01:05:30,540
Chicago Cubs the New York Mets are

966
01:05:30,540 --> 01:05:32,540
carrying 27 players at this time so

967
01:05:32,540 --> 01:05:36,540
they must cut down to 25 here is the

968
01:05:36,540 --> 01:05:38,540
one one pitch swung on and land in

969
01:05:38,540 --> 01:05:40,540
the right field for a base hit Johnny

970
01:05:40,540 --> 01:05:42,540
Lewis over cuts it off up with it and

971
01:05:42,540 --> 01:05:45,540
holds McCarver to a single right

972
01:05:45,540 --> 01:05:50,540
that breaks up pitcher Bob Gibson this

973
01:05:50,540 --> 01:05:52,540
man can swing a good bat as he proved

974
01:05:52,540 --> 01:05:54,540
when he came up in third inning and

975
01:05:54,540 --> 01:05:57,540
doubled into the warning track and off

976
01:05:57,540 --> 01:05:59,540
the wall and center and it was thrown

977
01:05:59,540 --> 01:06:00,540
out trying to stretch it into a

978
01:06:00,540 --> 01:06:02,540
triple he is a fine all-around athlete

979
01:06:02,540 --> 01:06:04,540
a former basketball star at Creighton

basketball team

983
01:06:16,540 --> 01:06:18,540
Gibson has a right hand batter

984
01:06:18,540 --> 01:06:22,540
McCarver leads at first base

985
01:06:22,540 --> 01:06:24,540
pitch is low for a ball McCarver

986
01:06:24,540 --> 01:06:25,540
attended Christian Brothers High

987
01:06:25,540 --> 01:06:28,540
School in Memphis Tennessee where he

988
01:06:28,540 --> 01:06:30,540

993
01:06:40,540 --> 01:06:45,540

2-0

997
01:06:57,540 --> 01:06:59,540
Gibson turns to look down to coach Joe

998
01:06:59,540 --> 01:07:01,540
Schultz who runs through the science

999
01:07:01,540 --> 01:07:07,540
at third base

1000
01:07:07,540 --> 01:07:09,540
the Cardinals this year under the

1001
01:07:09,540 --> 01:07:16,540
management of red chain deans

1002
01:07:16,540 --> 01:07:18,540
now spawned with the 2-0 delivery

1003
01:07:18,540 --> 01:07:20,540
swung on and lined in the right it's a

1004
01:07:20,540 --> 01:07:22,540
base hit Johnny Lewis ended up with it

1005
01:07:22,540 --> 01:07:25,540
and fires in and taken by McMillan

1006
01:07:25,540 --> 01:07:27,540
and it went over the head of Ron Hutt

1007
01:07:27,540 --> 01:07:30,540
but holding it second is McCarver

1008
01:07:30,540 --> 01:07:32,540
and Gibson's on with his second hit of the

1009
01:07:32,540 --> 01:07:35,540
night back-to-back base hits off spawn

1010

Bob Gibson's getting the jacket on on

1014
01:07:56,540 --> 01:07:58,540
there at first base a little help from

1015
01:07:58,540 --> 01:08:06,540
coach Mickey Vernon

1016
01:08:06,540 --> 01:08:08,540
no score in this ballgame and we're in

1017
01:08:08,540 --> 01:08:10,540
the top half of the fifth inning same

1018
01:08:10,540 --> 01:08:12,540
two teams play here again tomorrow

1019
01:08:12,540 --> 01:08:17,540
afternoon and game time is 2 p.m.

1020
01:08:17,540 --> 01:08:19,540
spawn is up and set now as Cardinal

1021
01:08:19,540 --> 01:08:22,540
runners lead at first and second pitch

1022
01:08:22,540 --> 01:08:23,540
to the right hand batter and it misses

1023
01:08:23,540 --> 01:08:29,540
outside for a ball

1024
01:08:29,540 --> 01:08:31,540
as Ralph Kiner was noting umpire Augie

1025
01:08:31,540 --> 01:08:33,540
Donatelli gets down on that right knee

1026
01:08:33,540 --> 01:08:36,540
right down on the ground on each pitch

1027
01:08:36,540 --> 01:08:43,540
he's right down there in the dirt

1028
01:08:43,540 --> 01:08:45,540
1-0 delivery and it's low and away for

1029
01:08:45,540 --> 01:08:54,540
a ball 2-0

1030
01:08:54,540 --> 01:08:56,540
Stan Landis is the umpire at first

1031
01:08:56,540 --> 01:08:58,540
Mel Steiner is the umpire at second and

1032
01:08:58,540 --> 01:09:01,540
Al Barlich is the umpire at third base

1033
01:09:01,540 --> 01:09:04,540
Al Barlich is the senior umpire in the

1034
01:09:04,540 --> 01:09:11,540
National League

1035
01:09:11,540 --> 01:09:13,540
spawn steps off the rubber tightens up

1036
01:09:13,540 --> 01:09:18,540
the runners no throw is made

1037
01:09:18,540 --> 01:09:19,540
Gagliano stepped out at the plate he's

1038
01:09:19,540 --> 01:09:22,540
back in and waiting now with a 2-0 count

1039
01:09:22,540 --> 01:09:27,540
spawn up and set 2-0 pitch down low

1040
01:09:27,540 --> 01:09:29,540
spawn is trying to work carefully now

1041
01:09:29,540 --> 01:09:31,540
with runners on and he's gone behind

1042
01:09:31,540 --> 01:09:33,540
three balls and no strikes to Gagliano

1043
01:09:33,540 --> 01:09:46,540
with Lou Brock on deck

1044
01:09:46,540 --> 01:09:47,540
Tim McCarver the runner at second Bob

1045
01:09:47,540 --> 01:09:50,540
Gibson the runner at first

1046
01:09:50,540 --> 01:09:54,540
this is a 3-0 pitch

1047
01:09:54,540 --> 01:09:56,540
and he walked him on four pitch balls to

1048
01:09:56,540 --> 01:09:58,540
load the bases with one man up

1049
01:09:58,540 --> 01:10:03,540
that is the second walk issued by spawn

1050
01:10:03,540 --> 01:10:05,540
brings up left hand batter Lou Brock

1051
01:10:05,540 --> 01:10:07,540
who has sacrificed and grounded out

1052
01:10:07,540 --> 01:10:12,540
second to first

1053
01:10:12,540 --> 01:10:13,540
let's see how the Mets play the infield

1054
01:10:13,540 --> 01:10:16,540
now, Hunter McMillan looking into the

1055
01:10:16,540 --> 01:10:18,540
dugout for instruction from manager Casey

1056
01:10:18,540 --> 01:10:20,540
Stingle it is a managerial decision and

1057
01:10:20,540 --> 01:10:22,540
at this moment the Mets have the infield

1058
01:10:22,540 --> 01:10:24,540
back at double play depth with Faust at

1059
01:10:24,540 --> 01:10:26,540
third playing even with the edge of the

1060
01:10:26,540 --> 01:10:28,540
grass on the left hand batter

1061
01:10:28,540 --> 01:10:30,540
Crane Poo playing deep and behind the

1062
01:10:30,540 --> 01:10:33,540
runner at first base

1063
01:10:33,540 --> 01:10:34,540
here's the pitch swung out and hit on the

1064
01:10:34,540 --> 01:10:36,540
ground towards second it can't be a

1065
01:10:36,540 --> 01:10:39,540
double play and now a collision between

1066
01:10:39,540 --> 01:10:43,540
Hunt and Phil Gagliano and Hud is down

1067
01:10:43,540 --> 01:10:45,540
with his head on the ground

1068
01:10:45,540 --> 01:10:47,540
a collision between Hunt and Gagliano

1069
01:10:47,540 --> 01:10:51,540
and the out call is made there

1070
01:10:51,540 --> 01:10:53,540
and Hud is still down on the ground

1071
01:10:53,540 --> 01:10:58,540
and manager Rich Hanenich is coming out now

1072
01:10:58,540 --> 01:11:01,540
Coach Schultz is protesting to the umpire

1073
01:11:01,540 --> 01:11:03,540
Bell-Styler at second

1074
01:11:03,540 --> 01:11:06,540
it was a slow roller hit the second base

1075
01:11:06,540 --> 01:11:10,540
and Hud came in to field the ball and

1076
01:11:10,540 --> 01:11:12,540
there was a collision between Hud and

1077
01:11:12,540 --> 01:11:14,540
runner Phil Gagliano

1078
01:11:14,540 --> 01:11:19,540
of course the base runner must allow the

1079
01:11:19,540 --> 01:11:21,540
fielder the base path in fielding the

1080
01:11:21,540 --> 01:11:23,540
ball but the Cardinals are contending

1081
01:11:23,540 --> 01:11:25,540
that Hud made the contact after he got to

1082
01:11:25,540 --> 01:11:27,540
the ball

1083
01:11:27,540 --> 01:11:29,540
however

1084
01:11:29,540 --> 01:11:37,540
Hud is coming off the field and it is his

1085
01:11:37,540 --> 01:11:39,540
wrist that is injured

1086
01:11:39,540 --> 01:11:42,540
trainer Gus March is holding Hunt's wrist

1087
01:11:42,540 --> 01:11:44,540
as he leads him off the field and it could

1088
01:11:44,540 --> 01:11:47,540
be a costly play for the New York Mets

1089
01:11:47,540 --> 01:11:49,540
Charlie Smith is coming out of the dugout

1090
01:11:49,540 --> 01:11:51,540
and the clubhouse will move to second

1091
01:11:51,540 --> 01:11:53,540
Smith will go to third but Ron Hud is injured

1092
01:11:53,540 --> 01:11:55,540
and he is out of this ballgame and was

1093
01:11:55,540 --> 01:11:57,540
holding the wrist as he came off the field

1094
01:11:57,540 --> 01:11:59,540
we'll get a clubhouse report for you later

1095
01:11:59,540 --> 01:12:01,540
as soon as they have had a chance to

1096
01:12:01,540 --> 01:12:03,540
examine him closely in the clubhouse

1097
01:12:03,540 --> 01:12:08,540
but Ron Hud is not a man who comes out of

1098
01:12:08,540 --> 01:12:10,540
a ballgame if there's any possible way to

1099
01:12:10,540 --> 01:12:12,540
stay in it

1100
01:12:12,540 --> 01:12:15,540
the clubhouse moves to second and

1101
01:12:15,540 --> 01:12:18,540
Charlie Smith goes in and plays third

1102
01:12:18,540 --> 01:12:20,540
number one

1103
01:12:20,540 --> 01:12:22,540
moving to second base

1104
01:12:22,540 --> 01:12:24,540
number six

1105
01:12:24,540 --> 01:12:26,540
Bobby Clouse

1106
01:12:26,540 --> 01:12:28,540
number six

1107
01:12:36,540 --> 01:12:38,540
we'll give you a report on Hud as soon as

1108
01:12:38,540 --> 01:12:40,540
we get one there is also a possibility

1109
01:12:40,540 --> 01:12:42,540
that it could have been a collar bone

1110
01:12:42,540 --> 01:12:48,540
as he was over on the grass paying

1111
01:12:48,540 --> 01:12:50,540
attention to that as well but we'll wait

1112
01:12:50,540 --> 01:12:52,540
until we get a report from the Mets

1113
01:12:52,540 --> 01:12:54,540
clubhouse

1114
01:13:02,540 --> 01:13:04,540
McCarver

1115
01:13:08,540 --> 01:13:10,540
back to third and Gibson at second of

1116
01:13:10,540 --> 01:13:12,540
course

1117
01:13:12,540 --> 01:13:14,540
on the interference play

1118
01:13:18,540 --> 01:13:20,540
the air catcher please

1119
01:13:20,540 --> 01:13:22,540
Kurt Flood is coming up

1120
01:13:22,540 --> 01:13:23,540
on the last play

1121
01:13:23,540 --> 01:13:25,540
Lou Brock is the runner at first

1122
01:13:25,540 --> 01:13:27,540
there are two men out

1123
01:13:27,540 --> 01:13:31,540
runners could not advance of course on the interference

1124
01:13:31,540 --> 01:13:33,540
no runs scored as runners could not advance

1125
01:13:33,540 --> 01:13:35,540
and that information is being given to the fans

1126
01:13:35,540 --> 01:13:38,540
Kurt Flood is up now with two men out

1127
01:13:38,540 --> 01:13:40,540
the put out goes to Hud

1128
01:13:40,540 --> 01:13:42,540
as Jagliano is out

1129
01:13:42,540 --> 01:13:44,540
the base is still loaded

1130
01:13:44,540 --> 01:13:46,540
and here is Warren Spong pitch

1131
01:13:46,540 --> 01:13:48,540
swung on and land one off the cloud

1132
01:13:48,540 --> 01:13:50,540
he'll go to first base and the side is out

1133
01:13:50,540 --> 01:13:52,540
without a run having that score

1134
01:13:55,540 --> 01:13:56,540
throw in

1135
01:13:56,540 --> 01:13:58,540
stop having the fifth inning

1136
01:13:58,540 --> 01:14:00,540
the St. Louis Cardinals got no runs

1137
01:14:00,540 --> 01:14:02,540
they had two hits there were no errors and two left

1138
01:14:02,540 --> 01:14:04,540
and the score at the end of four and a half innings

1139
01:14:04,540 --> 01:14:06,540
is the Cardinals nothing

1140
01:14:06,540 --> 01:14:08,540
and the match nothing

1141
01:14:08,540 --> 01:14:10,540
you want to get better performance from your car

1142
01:14:10,540 --> 01:14:12,540
listen to this

1143
01:14:12,540 --> 01:14:14,540
a driving tip from Shell

1144
01:14:14,540 --> 01:14:16,540
how safe are your brakes?

1145
01:14:16,540 --> 01:14:18,540
why not test them

1146
01:14:18,540 --> 01:14:20,540
right now while you're driving

1147
01:14:20,540 --> 01:14:22,540
you can in this easy on the spot road test

1148
01:14:22,540 --> 01:14:24,540
courtesy of your local Shell dealer

1149
01:14:24,540 --> 01:14:26,540
first make sure you've got a clear road

1150
01:14:26,540 --> 01:14:28,540
with nobody behind you

1151
01:14:28,540 --> 01:14:30,540
repeat

1152
01:14:30,540 --> 01:14:32,540
nobody behind you

1153
01:14:32,540 --> 01:14:34,540
drive at a good clip and apply your brakes

1154
01:14:34,540 --> 01:14:36,540
with a nice firm pressure

1155
01:14:36,540 --> 01:14:38,540
car come to an even stop

1156
01:14:38,540 --> 01:14:40,540
brake pedal feels solid

1157
01:14:40,540 --> 01:14:42,540
not soft and mushy

1158
01:14:42,540 --> 01:14:44,540
congratulations those brakes sound pretty good

1159
01:14:44,540 --> 01:14:46,540
but if your car pulled sharply to one side

1160
01:14:46,540 --> 01:14:48,540
or if your brakes chattered and complained

1161
01:14:48,540 --> 01:14:50,540
while you were stopping

1162
01:14:50,540 --> 01:14:52,540
take no chances

1163
01:14:52,540 --> 01:14:54,540
pull into your nearest Shell dealer

1164
01:14:54,540 --> 01:14:56,540

1165
01:14:56,540 --> 01:14:58,540
whether you need a simple adjustment or new linings

1166
01:14:58,540 --> 01:15:00,540
he can also help you get good mileage

1167
01:15:00,540 --> 01:15:02,540
with Super Shell gasoline

1168
01:15:02,540 --> 01:15:04,540
Super Shell with platform 8

1169
01:15:04,540 --> 01:15:06,540
especially blended by mileage experts

1170
01:15:06,540 --> 01:15:08,540
Super Shell

1171
01:15:08,540 --> 01:15:10,540
in the clean white pump

1172
01:15:10,540 --> 01:15:12,540
the Cardinals did not score

1173
01:15:12,540 --> 01:15:14,540
in the inning they had the bases loaded

1174
01:15:14,540 --> 01:15:16,540
and one man out and the ground ball went to honey

1175
01:15:16,540 --> 01:15:18,540
with a slow roller

1176
01:15:18,540 --> 01:15:20,540
and Gagliano was charged with interference

1177
01:15:20,540 --> 01:15:22,540
and when an interference call is made

1178
01:15:22,540 --> 01:15:24,540
that is our base runners return to the last base

1179
01:15:24,540 --> 01:15:26,540
to which they were legally entitled

1180
01:15:26,540 --> 01:15:28,540
at the time of the interference

1181
01:15:28,540 --> 01:15:30,540
so McCarver could not score from third

1182
01:15:30,540 --> 01:15:32,540
he was sent back and Gibson was sent back to second

1183
01:15:32,540 --> 01:15:34,540
Brock became the base runner

1184
01:15:34,540 --> 01:15:36,540
first with two men out

1185
01:15:36,540 --> 01:15:38,540
the put out going to hunt

1186
01:15:38,540 --> 01:15:40,540
and then Flood grounded out

1187
01:15:40,540 --> 01:15:42,540
here is the pitch now to Swavoda in there for a call strike one

1188
01:15:42,540 --> 01:15:44,540
so it was no runs

1189
01:15:44,540 --> 01:15:46,540
two hits no errors and three left for the Cardinals

1190
01:15:46,540 --> 01:15:48,540
in the top of the fifth

1191
01:15:50,540 --> 01:15:52,540
his pitch is in

1192
01:15:52,540 --> 01:15:54,540
for a call strike two to Ron Swavoda

1193
01:15:56,540 --> 01:15:58,540
he's been up one time and Gibson

1194
01:15:58,540 --> 01:16:00,540
struck him out

foul ball back

1293
01:20:32,540 --> 01:20:34,540
out of play

1294
01:20:34,540 --> 01:20:36,540
if you're keeping a scorecard

1295
01:20:36,540 --> 01:20:38,540
on the interference play of the last inning

1296
01:20:38,540 --> 01:20:40,540
Gills Hunt

1297
01:20:40,540 --> 01:20:42,540
a put out

1298
01:20:42,540 --> 01:20:44,540
unassisted on the interference play

1299
01:20:44,540 --> 01:20:46,540
and charge

1300
01:20:46,540 --> 01:20:48,540
Lou Brock with a time at bat

1301
01:20:48,540 --> 01:20:50,540
he hit the ground ball

1302
01:20:56,540 --> 01:20:58,540
here's the payoff pitch and it's inside

1303
01:20:58,540 --> 01:21:00,540
ball for a walk in

1304
01:21:00,540 --> 01:21:06,540
that's the first walk issued by Bob Gibson

1305
01:21:06,540 --> 01:21:08,540
check it it's the second walk issued by Gibson

1306
01:21:08,540 --> 01:21:10,540
he walked counter-zero on the third inning

1307
01:21:12,540 --> 01:21:14,540
so it gives the Mets

1308
01:21:14,540 --> 01:21:16,540
runners at first and second

1309
01:21:16,540 --> 01:21:18,540
two men out and Bobby Klaus up

1310
01:21:18,540 --> 01:21:20,540
pitch is a breaking ball in there

1311
01:21:20,540 --> 01:21:22,540
pops out of the glove of McCarber

1312
01:21:22,540 --> 01:21:24,540
strike wise

1313
01:21:34,540 --> 01:21:36,540
Gibson working with the Mets

1314
01:21:36,540 --> 01:21:38,540
he's got a good shot

1315
01:21:38,540 --> 01:21:40,540
he's got a good shot

1316
01:21:40,540 --> 01:21:42,540
he's got a good shot

1317
01:21:42,540 --> 01:21:44,540
he's got a good shot

1318
01:21:44,540 --> 01:21:46,540
he's got a good shot

1319
01:21:46,540 --> 01:21:48,540
Gibson working off the stretch here

1320
01:21:50,540 --> 01:21:52,540
at the land ground in the right field

1321
01:21:52,540 --> 01:21:54,540
and it's going to be in there for a base hit

1322
01:21:54,540 --> 01:21:56,540
it's going all the way to the wall

1323
01:21:56,540 --> 01:21:58,540
McMillan round 30 coming home

1324
01:21:58,540 --> 01:22:00,540
Bond is rounding third and he is coming home

1325
01:22:00,540 --> 01:22:02,540
it'll be a close play

1326
01:22:02,540 --> 01:22:04,540
he is out and he slides at the plate

1327
01:22:04,540 --> 01:22:06,540
Bond is out at the plate

1328
01:22:06,540 --> 01:22:08,540
but the Mets get one run

1329
01:22:08,540 --> 01:22:10,540
the relay went 9-4-2

1330
01:22:10,540 --> 01:22:12,540
as Bobby Klaus

1331
01:22:12,540 --> 01:22:14,540
drilled that ball in the deep right field

1332
01:22:14,540 --> 01:22:16,540
he gets a run batted in as McMillan did score

1333
01:22:18,540 --> 01:22:20,540
it is scored as a double for Bobby Klaus

1334
01:22:20,540 --> 01:22:22,540
and Bond goes out 9-4-2

1335
01:22:24,540 --> 01:22:26,540
the relay coming from Shannon

1336
01:22:26,540 --> 01:22:28,540
to Gagliano

1337
01:22:28,540 --> 01:22:30,540
to McCarber and he's got there in plenty of time

1338
01:22:30,540 --> 01:22:32,540
but Bond hits the dirt nonetheless

1339
01:22:32,540 --> 01:22:34,540
in the bottom half of the fifth inning

1340
01:22:34,540 --> 01:22:36,540
the Mets got one run

1341
01:22:36,540 --> 01:22:38,540
on two hits

1342
01:22:38,540 --> 01:22:40,540
no errors and one left and the score at the end of

1343
01:22:40,540 --> 01:22:42,540
five full innings

1344
01:22:42,540 --> 01:22:44,540
the Mets won and the Cardinals nothing

1345
01:22:46,540 --> 01:22:48,540

01:23:56,540 --> 01:24:06,540
Cardinals no runs, five hits, no errors

1378
01:24:06,540 --> 01:24:12,540
Ken Boyer is up to lead off now for the Cardinals

1379
01:24:12,540 --> 01:24:14,540
Warren Spahn on the mound

1380
01:24:32,540 --> 01:24:34,540
and the pitch is swung on

1381
01:24:34,540 --> 01:24:36,540
hit on the ground foul back of third

1382
01:24:36,540 --> 01:24:38,540
and the pitch is swung on

1383
01:24:38,540 --> 01:24:40,540
hit on the ground foul back of third

1384
01:24:40,540 --> 01:24:42,540
there's action now in the Mets bullpen

1385
01:24:42,540 --> 01:24:44,540
Gary Crowell is throwing

1386
01:24:44,540 --> 01:24:46,540
Warren Spahn

1387
01:24:46,540 --> 01:24:48,540
had a little workout on the bases that time

1388
01:24:48,540 --> 01:24:50,540
and had to hit the dirt coming into the plate

1389
01:24:50,540 --> 01:24:52,540
so just as a precaution

1390
01:24:52,540 --> 01:24:54,540
the Mets have started Gary Crowell

1391
01:24:54,540 --> 01:24:56,540
throwing in the bullpen

1392
01:24:56,540 --> 01:24:58,540
Mets lead by a score of one nothing

1393
01:25:00,540 --> 01:25:02,540
pitch is low and away for a ball

1394
01:25:02,540 --> 01:25:04,540
one and one to Ken Boyer

1395
01:25:04,540 --> 01:25:06,540
one and one to Ken Boyer

1396
01:25:14,540 --> 01:25:16,540
and the one one delivery

1397
01:25:16,540 --> 01:25:18,540
swung on and popped up foul

1398
01:25:18,540 --> 01:25:20,540
out of play

1399
01:25:22,540 --> 01:25:24,540
runs the count to one ball

1400
01:25:24,540 --> 01:25:26,540
and two strikes

1401
01:25:26,540 --> 01:25:32,540
Dick Groat is waiting on deck for the Cardinals

1402
01:25:40,540 --> 01:25:42,540
and the one two pitch

1403
01:25:42,540 --> 01:25:44,540
screwball breaks low and away

1404
01:25:44,540 --> 01:25:46,540
it's two two

1405
01:25:52,540 --> 01:25:54,540
Charlie Smith at third for the Mets

1406
01:25:54,540 --> 01:25:56,540
Bobby Claus at second

1407
01:26:04,540 --> 01:26:08,540
that pitch is inside low and it's a full count of three and two

1408
01:26:18,540 --> 01:26:20,540
now Spahn with the playoff pitch

1409
01:26:20,540 --> 01:26:22,540
outside he walked him

1410
01:26:22,540 --> 01:26:24,540
third walk issued by Spahn

1411
01:26:26,540 --> 01:26:28,540
and it's a lead off walk to Boyer

1412
01:26:28,540 --> 01:26:30,540
and brings up Dick Groat

1413
01:26:30,540 --> 01:26:32,540
he is popped to second and fly to center

1414
01:26:38,540 --> 01:26:40,540
Mets shade center field around Swabota

1415
01:26:40,540 --> 01:26:42,540
over toward right

1416
01:26:42,540 --> 01:26:44,540
they have Johnny Lewis way over toward the line

1417
01:26:44,540 --> 01:26:46,540
because Dick Groat likes to take that ball to right field

1418
01:26:46,540 --> 01:26:48,540
one of the fine hit and run men in the game of baseball

1419
01:26:54,540 --> 01:26:56,540
Crane pool holds against the runner Ken Boyer

1420
01:26:58,540 --> 01:27:00,540
and it is full foul back of third and out of play

1421
01:27:04,540 --> 01:27:06,540
strike one to Dick Groat

1422
01:27:06,540 --> 01:27:08,540
Boyer back to the bag at first

1423
01:27:08,540 --> 01:27:10,540
Bill White has moved out to the on deck circle now

1424
01:27:10,540 --> 01:27:12,540
for the Cardinals

1425
01:27:20,540 --> 01:27:22,540
Spahn looks to count a zero for a sign

1426
01:27:24,540 --> 01:27:26,540
pitch out nothing odd

1427
01:27:26,540 --> 01:27:28,540
and the ball is in the air

1428
01:27:28,540 --> 01:27:30,540
and it's a one two pitch

1429
01:27:30,540 --> 01:27:32,540
and the one two pitch

1430
01:27:32,540 --> 01:27:34,540
and the one two pitch

1431
01:27:34,540 --> 01:27:36,540
and the one two pitch

1432
01:27:36,540 --> 01:27:38,540
pitch out nothing odd

1433
01:27:40,540 --> 01:27:42,540
Mets figured that just maybe

1434
01:27:42,540 --> 01:27:44,540
Cardinals might be playing hit and run on that pitch

1435
01:27:44,540 --> 01:27:46,540
so

1436
01:27:46,540 --> 01:27:48,540
count a zero call for the pitch out

1437
01:27:48,540 --> 01:27:50,540
one and one, Groat looks now for the sign

1438
01:28:00,540 --> 01:28:02,540
Boyer takes his lead at first

1439
01:28:02,540 --> 01:28:04,540
one one pitch and another pitch out

1440
01:28:04,540 --> 01:28:06,540
and a throw down and not in time

1441
01:28:06,540 --> 01:28:08,540
well the Mets figured since they had called

1442
01:28:08,540 --> 01:28:10,540
for one pitch out and it had gone one one

1443
01:28:10,540 --> 01:28:12,540
that perhaps the Cardinals then would put it on

1444
01:28:12,540 --> 01:28:14,540
so they call for another one

1445
01:28:14,540 --> 01:28:16,540
now it's two balls and one strike

1446
01:28:16,540 --> 01:28:18,540
two one

1447
01:28:32,540 --> 01:28:34,540
two one delivery with the runner going

1448
01:28:34,540 --> 01:28:36,540
it's on now and it's in the air

1449
01:28:36,540 --> 01:28:38,540
down the right field out a foul ball

1450
01:28:38,540 --> 01:28:40,540
and Johnny Lewis can't get to it

1451
01:28:40,540 --> 01:28:42,540
a long strike

1452
01:28:42,540 --> 01:28:44,540
they were playing hit and run with Boyer going

1453
01:28:44,540 --> 01:28:46,540
pitch out now to Groat

1454
01:28:52,540 --> 01:28:54,540
Groat's reading Joe Shulstein

1455
01:28:54,540 --> 01:28:56,540
to see what they do on two two

1456
01:29:00,540 --> 01:29:02,540
there's nobody out and the Mets are leading here

1457
01:29:02,540 --> 01:29:04,540
by a score of one to nothing

1458
01:29:10,540 --> 01:29:12,540
the bond is up and set

1459
01:29:12,540 --> 01:29:14,540
here's the pitch

1460
01:29:14,540 --> 01:29:16,540
on the ground to third

1461
01:29:16,540 --> 01:29:18,540
the Clogs go one, the total first

1462
01:29:18,540 --> 01:29:20,540
the double play

1463
01:29:24,540 --> 01:29:26,540
with the runner holding

1464
01:29:26,540 --> 01:29:28,540
Dick Groat hit a ground ball to third

1465
01:29:28,540 --> 01:29:30,540
Charlie Smith up with it fired

1466
01:29:30,540 --> 01:29:32,540
the Clogs made the pivot on the peg on and the Mets

1467
01:29:32,540 --> 01:29:34,540
have pulled off their 23rd double play

1468
01:29:34,540 --> 01:29:36,540
of this young season

1469
01:29:36,540 --> 01:29:38,540
and Bill White is coming up

1470
01:29:38,540 --> 01:29:40,540
he has struck out swinging and lined out to second

1471
01:29:40,540 --> 01:29:42,540
so far

1472
01:29:44,540 --> 01:29:46,540
White is a left hand batter

1473
01:29:50,540 --> 01:29:52,540
ground ball hits the second base

1474
01:29:52,540 --> 01:29:54,540
Clouse is over up with it he plays the crane

1475
01:29:54,540 --> 01:29:56,540
pull and the side is out

1476
01:29:56,540 --> 01:29:58,540
no runs, no hits, no errors

1477
01:29:58,540 --> 01:30:00,540
none left and the score at the end of

1478
01:30:00,540 --> 01:30:02,540
five and a half innings just the Mets

1479
01:30:02,540 --> 01:30:04,540
one, the Cardinals nothing

1480
01:30:04,540 --> 01:30:10,540
but the words from Viceroy Cigarette

1481
01:30:10,540 --> 01:30:12,540
Viceroy's got the taste that's right

1482
01:30:12,540 --> 01:30:14,540
not too strong and not too light

1483
01:30:14,540 --> 01:30:16,540
the taste that's right

1484
01:30:20,540 --> 01:30:22,540
you get the word

1485
01:30:22,540 --> 01:30:24,540
it's Viceroy, a cigarette that's

1486
01:30:24,540 --> 01:30:26,540
specifically designed to taste the way

1487
01:30:26,540 --> 01:30:28,540
you'd like a filter cigarette to taste

1488
01:30:28,540 --> 01:30:30,540
if you're a filter smoker

1489
01:30:30,540 --> 01:30:32,540
you've already discovered

1490
01:30:32,540 --> 01:30:34,540
some brands taste too strong

1491
01:30:34,540 --> 01:30:36,540
as if they didn't even have a filter

1492
01:30:36,540 --> 01:30:38,540
and others taste too light

1493
01:30:38,540 --> 01:30:40,540
you know the kind, they never seem

1494
01:30:40,540 --> 01:30:42,540
to satisfy your taste

1495
01:30:48,540 --> 01:30:50,540
why the General Electric Station ends

1496
01:30:50,540 --> 01:30:52,540
connected a 810 on your dial

1497
01:30:58,540 --> 01:31:00,540
this is Lindsay Nelson

1498
01:31:00,540 --> 01:31:02,540
Bob Murphy and Ralph Tinder

1499
01:31:02,540 --> 01:31:04,540
at Shea Stadium in New York

1500
01:31:04,540 --> 01:31:06,540
Charlie Smith's up and the first pitch is off the outside

1501
01:31:06,540 --> 01:31:08,540
going in for ball one

1502
01:31:08,540 --> 01:31:10,540
Charlie Smith batting number two in the

1503
01:31:10,540 --> 01:31:12,540
batting order

1504
01:31:16,540 --> 01:31:18,540
his first time up tonight he's hitting 151

1505
01:31:18,540 --> 01:31:20,540
here's a swing

1506
01:31:20,540 --> 01:31:22,540
and a miss for strike one, one and one

1507
01:31:22,540 --> 01:31:24,540
to the right hand batter with Johnny Lewis-Ande

1508
01:31:24,540 --> 01:31:30,540
the miss one and the guard knows nothing

1509
01:31:34,540 --> 01:31:36,540
Bob Gibson with the one-one delivery

1510
01:31:36,540 --> 01:31:38,540
swung on and on the ground is short

1511
01:31:38,540 --> 01:31:40,540
taken deep by Grode, long throw

1512
01:31:40,540 --> 01:31:42,540
and he beat it for a little bit

1513
01:31:48,540 --> 01:31:50,540
Charlie Smith

1514
01:31:50,540 --> 01:31:54,540
legs out, the base hit

1515
01:31:54,540 --> 01:31:56,540
and is on it first with

1516
01:31:56,540 --> 01:31:58,540
Johnny Lewis coming up

1517
01:32:04,540 --> 01:32:06,540
Lewis has grounded out and

1518
01:32:06,540 --> 01:32:08,540
flying out so far

1519
01:32:14,540 --> 01:32:16,540
and the crowd comes alive here at

1520
01:32:16,540 --> 01:32:18,540
Shea Stadium with the chant of

1521
01:32:18,540 --> 01:32:20,540
Joe Metz

1522
01:32:20,540 --> 01:32:22,540
Lewis bumps the ball down the third base line

1523
01:32:22,540 --> 01:32:24,540
a foul ball and it falls off

1524
01:32:24,540 --> 01:32:26,540
Metz trying to get Smith

1525
01:32:26,540 --> 01:32:28,540
on down to second with Joe

1526
01:32:28,540 --> 01:32:30,540
Christopher waiting on deck

1527
01:32:42,540 --> 01:32:44,540
Metz now has five hits off

1528
01:32:44,540 --> 01:32:48,540
Gibson

1529
01:32:48,540 --> 01:32:50,540
all right handers set

1530
01:32:50,540 --> 01:32:52,540
and a pitch to Johnny Lewis

1531
01:32:52,540 --> 01:32:54,540
it's one run and miss for strike two

1532
01:33:00,540 --> 01:33:02,540
he took a rip at that one

1533
01:33:02,540 --> 01:33:17,540
and the two strike delivery is live in the right field for a base hit

1534
01:33:17,540 --> 01:33:19,540
Cannon comes up with it, Smith holds it second

1535
01:33:19,540 --> 01:33:21,540
as the throw goes to second and Lewis is on it first

1536
01:33:21,540 --> 01:33:23,540
with a line shot to right

1537
01:33:23,540 --> 01:33:25,540
and the Nature runners at first and second

1538
01:33:25,540 --> 01:33:27,540
not nobody out and Joe Christopher

1539
01:33:27,540 --> 01:33:28,040
coming up.

1540
01:33:37,040 --> 01:33:38,420
The first round it out and

1541
01:33:38,420 --> 01:33:39,980
fouled out the first place so

1542
01:33:39,980 --> 01:33:40,280
far.

1543
01:33:40,920 --> 01:33:42,820
He's reading down his side now

1544
01:33:42,820 --> 01:33:45,180
to see if the Mets are going to

1545
01:33:45,180 --> 01:33:47,220
try to sacrifice the runners are

1546
01:33:50,060 --> 01:33:51,220
the Mets are leading in this

1547
01:33:51,220 --> 01:33:52,860
game by a score of one to nothing

1548
01:33:52,860 --> 01:34:00,860
and listen to that crowd.

1549
01:34:00,860 --> 01:34:01,860
Bill White at first place

1550
01:34:01,860 --> 01:34:03,860
expecting the bun is way on the

1551
01:34:03,860 --> 01:34:05,860
edge of the grass and Ken Boyers

1552
01:34:05,860 --> 01:34:11,860
on the cutout at third.

1553
01:34:11,860 --> 01:34:12,860
Here's the pitch and the

1554
01:34:12,860 --> 01:34:14,860
Bunches and Mithies for strike

1555
01:34:14,860 --> 01:34:16,860
one.

1556
01:34:16,860 --> 01:34:17,860
Joe Christopher questioning

1557
01:34:17,860 --> 01:34:19,860
Umber Donatelli about the movie

1558
01:34:19,860 --> 01:34:21,860
made with the bat and asking

1559
01:34:21,860 --> 01:34:23,860
what it is in the strike zone

1560
01:34:23,860 --> 01:34:26,860
is strike one to Christopher

1561
01:34:34,860 --> 01:34:35,860
Rainbow is waiting on that

1562
01:34:35,860 --> 01:34:37,860
white fill it on the edge of the

1563
01:34:37,860 --> 01:34:38,860
grass at first.

1564
01:34:38,860 --> 01:34:40,860
Here is the pitch and it's low

1565
01:34:40,860 --> 01:34:42,860
for a ball for the congo one

1566
01:34:42,860 --> 01:34:47,860
one.

1567
01:34:47,860 --> 01:34:48,860
Charlie Smith the runner at

1568
01:34:48,860 --> 01:34:49,860
second and Johnny Lewis the

1569
01:34:49,860 --> 01:34:56,860
runner at first.

1570
01:34:56,860 --> 01:34:59,860
Gibson reading McCarver side

1571
01:34:59,860 --> 01:35:01,860
runners lead first and second

1572
01:35:01,860 --> 01:35:02,860
the one one pitch he bunches on

1573
01:35:02,860 --> 01:35:03,860
the third base.

1574
01:35:03,860 --> 01:35:06,860
Boyer you have to go to first

1575
01:35:06,860 --> 01:35:07,860
Gagliano takes the throw

1576
01:35:07,860 --> 01:35:09,860
sacrifice moves the runners up

1577
01:35:09,860 --> 01:35:15,860
and the play goes five four.

1578
01:35:15,860 --> 01:35:16,860
Charlie Smith moves to third

1579
01:35:16,860 --> 01:35:17,860
Johnny Lewis to second and

1580
01:35:17,860 --> 01:35:19,860
left hand batter Ed Crane

1581
01:35:19,860 --> 01:35:29,860
Bull is coming up.

1582
01:35:29,860 --> 01:35:30,860
He's going to be

1583
01:35:30,860 --> 01:35:32,860
intentionally walk with first

1584
01:35:32,860 --> 01:35:34,860
base open and Swabota on deck.

1585
01:35:34,860 --> 01:35:35,860
They're going to walk him

1586
01:35:35,860 --> 01:35:42,860
intentionally at all.

1587
01:35:42,860 --> 01:35:47,860
An intentional pass with first

1588
01:35:47,860 --> 01:35:54,860
base open.

1589
01:35:54,860 --> 01:35:55,860
We're all back there for a

1590
01:35:55,860 --> 01:35:56,860
little instruction.

1591
01:35:56,860 --> 01:35:57,860
He is bending over looking into

1592
01:35:57,860 --> 01:35:59,860
the dugout and manager Casey

1593
01:35:59,860 --> 01:36:00,860
Stengel is talking to Swabota

1594
01:36:00,860 --> 01:36:03,860
now as ball for and train who

1595
01:36:03,860 --> 01:36:05,860
goes to first.

1596
01:36:05,860 --> 01:36:06,860
The bases are loaded with one

1597
01:36:06,860 --> 01:36:07,860
man out.

1598
01:36:07,860 --> 01:36:09,860
Now Swabota's been up twice and

1599
01:36:09,860 --> 01:36:10,860
the young fellow has been

1600
01:36:10,860 --> 01:36:12,860
knocked out both times by

1601
01:36:12,860 --> 01:36:28,860
hard throwing Bob Gibson.

1602
01:36:28,860 --> 01:36:30,860
Swabota is 20 years of age and

1603
01:36:30,860 --> 01:36:31,860
he hasn't faced many pitchers

1604
01:36:31,860 --> 01:36:33,860
like Bob Gibson who came into

1605
01:36:33,860 --> 01:36:34,860
this game with a record of five

1606
01:36:34,860 --> 01:36:37,860
wins and no losses.

1607
01:36:37,860 --> 01:36:38,860
So let's see how he makes out

1608
01:36:38,860 --> 01:36:43,860
this time.

1609
01:36:43,860 --> 01:36:44,860
That's just in a hurry.

1610
01:36:44,860 --> 01:36:45,860
He took the short chopping

1611
01:36:45,860 --> 01:36:46,860
stroke.

1612
01:36:46,860 --> 01:36:50,860
It's like one like Melon is on

1613
01:36:50,860 --> 01:36:51,860
deck.

1614
01:36:51,860 --> 01:36:55,860
Max two for two fastball right

1615
01:36:55,860 --> 01:36:58,860
in there for a call right to

1616
01:36:58,860 --> 01:37:00,860
get them just bearing down and

1617
01:37:00,860 --> 01:37:07,860
trying to overpower on Swabota

1618
01:37:07,860 --> 01:37:08,860
lots of motion and the pitch is

1619
01:37:08,860 --> 01:37:09,860
high in time.

1620
01:37:09,860 --> 01:37:16,860
One and two Charlie Smith at

1621
01:37:16,860 --> 01:37:18,860
third Johnny Lewis at second

1622
01:37:18,860 --> 01:37:22,860
Ed Green bullet first the one

1623
01:37:22,860 --> 01:37:25,860
two pitch missed long away.

1624
01:37:25,860 --> 01:37:38,860
No it's too late to not

1625
01:37:38,860 --> 01:37:40,860
get them looks to McCarver.

1626
01:37:40,860 --> 01:37:42,860
Here's a two to fit.

1627
01:37:42,860 --> 01:37:44,860
He's stuck him out to the third

1628
01:37:44,860 --> 01:37:48,860
time.

1629
01:37:48,860 --> 01:37:49,860
He's been up twice and had two

1630
01:37:49,860 --> 01:38:07,860
base hits to man up.

1631
01:38:07,860 --> 01:38:09,860
Gibson has struck out four men in

1632
01:38:09,860 --> 01:38:10,860
this game.

1633
01:38:10,860 --> 01:38:11,860
He is trucks will vote out three

1634
01:38:11,860 --> 01:38:15,860
times and class one paid

1635
01:38:15,860 --> 01:38:16,860
attendance here tonight.

1636
01:38:16,860 --> 01:38:19,860
This Tuesday night twenty four

1637
01:38:19,860 --> 01:38:21,860
thousand five hundred nineteen

1638
01:38:21,860 --> 01:38:23,860
total in the ballpark twenty

1639
01:38:23,860 --> 01:38:24,860
five thousand three hundred

1640
01:38:24,860 --> 01:38:27,860
ninety a fine Tuesday night

1641
01:38:27,860 --> 01:38:28,860
turnout at Jay Stadium in New

1642
01:38:28,860 --> 01:38:32,860
York swing and a miss by

1643
01:38:32,860 --> 01:38:45,860
McMillan at the plate.

1644
01:38:45,860 --> 01:38:46,860
Runners leading at first second

1645
01:38:46,860 --> 01:38:47,860
and third the strike one

1646
01:38:47,860 --> 01:38:49,860
delivery swung on and missed a

1647
01:38:49,860 --> 01:38:55,860
strike to Bob Gibson bearing

1648
01:38:55,860 --> 01:38:56,860
down here in the bottom of the

1649
01:38:56,860 --> 01:39:09,860
sixth.

1650
01:39:09,860 --> 01:39:11,860
If he starts the motion the two

1651
01:39:11,860 --> 01:39:12,860
strike delivery swung on and

1652
01:39:12,860 --> 01:39:15,860
landed a right field.

1653
01:39:15,860 --> 01:39:16,860
Charlie Smith scores Johnny

1654
01:39:16,860 --> 01:39:18,860
Lewis comes out to score

1655
01:39:18,860 --> 01:39:19,680
Frank

1656
01:39:19,680 --> 01:39:21,860
is at third and he is being

1657
01:39:21,860 --> 01:39:22,860
held up and McMillan is at

1658
01:39:22,860 --> 01:39:24,860
second with a double to run

1659
01:39:24,860 --> 01:39:44,860
battered.

1660
01:39:44,860 --> 01:39:46,860
Ryan McMillan with his third hit

1661
01:39:46,860 --> 01:39:48,860
of the night he is three for

1662
01:39:48,860 --> 01:39:50,860
three a double the right turn

1663
01:39:50,860 --> 01:39:51,860
of the field and two runs battered

1664
01:39:51,860 --> 01:39:54,860
in and that's a crane bullet

1665
01:39:54,860 --> 01:39:55,860
third McMillan at second to

1666
01:39:55,860 --> 01:39:57,860
man out and Chris Calisero is

1667
01:39:57,860 --> 01:39:58,860
up.

1668
01:39:58,860 --> 01:39:59,860
He has walked and flat out to

1669
01:39:59,860 --> 01:40:02,860
right field and that's three

1670
01:40:02,860 --> 01:40:06,860
and the cardinal of nothing

1671
01:40:06,860 --> 01:40:21,860
blowing away from all

1672
01:40:21,860 --> 01:40:23,860
and Gibson with the pitch

1673
01:40:23,860 --> 01:40:25,860
hung on and fouled off a strike

1674
01:40:25,860 --> 01:40:31,860
one at one and one.

1675
01:40:31,860 --> 01:40:34,860
There is no action as yet in the

1676
01:40:34,860 --> 01:40:37,860
final bullpen and that's a

1677
01:40:37,860 --> 01:40:48,860
three runs on seven hits.

1678
01:40:48,860 --> 01:40:50,860
There's a one one delivery

1679
01:40:50,860 --> 01:40:52,860
breaking ball high and tight.

1680
01:40:52,860 --> 01:41:00,860
It's two and one.

1681
01:41:00,860 --> 01:41:02,860
Well the old timers say when you

1682
01:41:02,860 --> 01:41:03,860
have a man who throws his heart

1683
01:41:03,860 --> 01:41:04,860
at Gibson all you got to do is

1684
01:41:04,860 --> 01:41:06,860
just get some wood on that ball

1685
01:41:06,860 --> 01:41:07,860
and that's what McMillan's been

1686
01:41:07,860 --> 01:41:09,860
doing tonight and he's gone

1687
01:41:09,860 --> 01:41:15,860
three for three to one pitch in

1688
01:41:15,860 --> 01:41:16,860
there for a call strike at two

1689
01:41:16,860 --> 01:41:21,860
to the count of their Warren

1690
01:41:21,860 --> 01:41:31,860
Spahn is waiting on deck and the

1691
01:41:31,860 --> 01:41:33,860
two to delivery swung on and

1692
01:41:33,860 --> 01:41:35,860
missed he struck him out five

1693
01:41:35,860 --> 01:41:36,860
strikeouts in the game for

1694
01:41:36,860 --> 01:41:39,860
Gibson so far but the Mets and

1695
01:41:39,860 --> 01:41:40,860
the bottom of the six picked up

1696
01:41:40,860 --> 01:41:44,860
two runs on three hits no errors

1697
01:41:44,860 --> 01:41:45,860
and two left and the score at

1698
01:41:45,860 --> 01:41:47,860
the end of six full innings is

1699
01:41:47,860 --> 01:41:49,860
the Mets three and the cardinals

1700
01:41:49,860 --> 01:41:51,860
nothing Bob Murphy will be along

1701
01:41:51,860 --> 01:41:52,860
in just a moment to detail the

1702
01:41:52,860 --> 01:41:55,860
play by play right now is a very

1703
01:41:55,860 --> 01:41:57,860
sad French Canadian song about a

1704
01:41:57,860 --> 01:41:58,860
fellow who lost the key of his

1705
01:41:58,860 --> 01:41:59,860
clarinet.

1706
01:41:59,860 --> 01:42:01,860
Listen.

1707
01:42:01,860 --> 01:42:04,860
I lost the key of my clarinet

1708
01:42:04,860 --> 01:42:07,860
I lost the key of my clarinet

1709
01:42:07,860 --> 01:42:09,860
Oh, don't tell me he knows

1710
01:42:09,860 --> 01:42:13,860
I lost the key of my clarinet

1711
01:42:13,860 --> 01:42:15,860
is a song with the kind of humor

1712
01:42:15,860 --> 01:42:17,860
French Canadians love but one

1713
01:42:17,860 --> 01:42:19,860
song leads to another and the

1714
01:42:19,860 --> 01:42:20,860
first that follows is no laughing

1715
01:42:20,860 --> 01:42:21,860
matter

1716
01:42:21,860 --> 01:42:33,860
Oh,

1717
01:42:33,860 --> 01:42:34,860
I'm the cool is what they'll

1718
01:42:34,860 --> 01:42:36,860
sing as they reach for a beer

1719
01:42:36,860 --> 01:42:38,860
probably Reingold extra dry.

1720
01:42:38,860 --> 01:42:40,860
In fact in New York City where

1721
01:42:40,860 --> 01:42:41,860
there are more different kinds

1722
01:42:41,860 --> 01:42:43,860
of people than in any other city

1723
01:42:43,860 --> 01:42:44,860
in the world.

1724
01:42:44,860 --> 01:42:46,860
More people drink Reingold than

1725
01:42:46,860 --> 01:42:48,860
any other beer and Reingold is

1726
01:42:48,860 --> 01:42:49,860
going great in New Jersey, New

1727
01:42:49,860 --> 01:42:52,860
England and Pennsylvania too.

1728
01:42:52,860 --> 01:42:53,860
Why do French Canadians like

1729
01:42:53,860 --> 01:42:54,860
Reingold?

1730
01:42:54,860 --> 01:42:56,860
We don't know but we must be

1731
01:42:56,860 --> 01:43:06,860
doing something right.

1732
01:43:06,860 --> 01:43:07,860
Now the seventh inning here at

1733
01:43:07,860 --> 01:43:09,860
Shea Stadium and Mike Shannon

1734
01:43:09,860 --> 01:43:10,860
the right fielder will be up

1735
01:43:10,860 --> 01:43:13,860
against Warren Spahn.

1736
01:43:13,860 --> 01:43:14,860
Shannon over to has been thrown

1737
01:43:14,860 --> 01:43:16,860
out by the shortstop Roy

1738
01:43:16,860 --> 01:43:18,860
McMillan and fly to center.

1739
01:43:18,860 --> 01:43:22,860
Rangey right hand batter feet

1740
01:43:22,860 --> 01:43:23,860
wide apart.

1741
01:43:23,860 --> 01:43:26,860
Warren Spahn starts him off with

1742
01:43:26,860 --> 01:43:27,860
a breaking ball for a strike on

1743
01:43:27,860 --> 01:43:32,860
the outside corner.

1744
01:43:32,860 --> 01:43:33,860
Bottom third of the cardinal

1745
01:43:33,860 --> 01:43:34,860
batting order hitting in the

1746
01:43:34,860 --> 01:43:35,860
seventh.

1747
01:43:35,860 --> 01:43:36,860
Nothing going in the St. Louis

1748
01:43:36,860 --> 01:43:39,860
bullpen because Bob Gibson the

1749
01:43:39,860 --> 01:43:40,860
cardinal pitcher is a solid

1750
01:43:40,860 --> 01:43:46,860
hitter.

1751
01:43:46,860 --> 01:43:47,860
House body into his windup

1752
01:43:47,860 --> 01:43:49,860
down comes his pitch outside and

1753
01:43:49,860 --> 01:43:57,860
high one ball one strike.

1754
01:43:57,860 --> 01:43:59,860
New York three runs seven hits

1755
01:43:59,860 --> 01:44:01,860
and no errors St. Louis no runs

1756
01:44:01,860 --> 01:44:09,860
five hits no errors.

1757
01:44:09,860 --> 01:44:11,860
Now the one one delivery black

1758
01:44:11,860 --> 01:44:12,860
foul down the third base line no

1759
01:44:12,860 --> 01:44:17,860
play.

1760
01:44:17,860 --> 01:44:18,860
A game tomorrow at 2 p.m. Jack

1761
01:44:18,860 --> 01:44:19,860
Fisher pitching against Kurt

1762
01:44:19,860 --> 01:44:22,860
Simmons.

1763
01:44:22,860 --> 01:44:23,860
Mets will make their first trip

1764
01:44:23,860 --> 01:44:24,860
to St. Louis when they close out

1765
01:44:24,860 --> 01:44:26,860
this homestand.

1766
01:44:26,860 --> 01:44:27,860
They will start their next

1767
01:44:27,860 --> 01:44:28,860
road trip in Milwaukee then

1768
01:44:28,860 --> 01:44:30,860
spend the weekend in St. Louis

1769
01:44:30,860 --> 01:44:31,860
come back for a two night stop

1770
01:44:31,860 --> 01:44:33,860
in Philadelphia then return to

1771
01:44:33,860 --> 01:44:34,860
Shea Stadium to meet the Cubs

1772
01:44:34,860 --> 01:44:35,860
and the Pirates for the first

1773
01:44:35,860 --> 01:44:42,860
time this year.

1774
01:44:42,860 --> 01:44:43,860
Now Spani takes his sign from

1775
01:44:43,860 --> 01:44:45,860
Canisaro.

1776
01:44:45,860 --> 01:44:46,860
Here's the windup the one two

1777
01:44:46,860 --> 01:44:48,860
delivery a drive hit hard toward

1778
01:44:48,860 --> 01:44:49,860
the alley and left center field.

1779
01:44:49,860 --> 01:44:51,860
It'll be in for a base hit.

1780
01:44:51,860 --> 01:44:52,860
Christopher running the ball

1781
01:44:52,860 --> 01:44:54,860
down back on the track and

1782
01:44:54,860 --> 01:44:55,860
Shannon goes in the second with

1783
01:44:55,860 --> 01:45:02,860
a long double line drive hit up

1784
01:45:02,860 --> 01:45:03,860
the alley by Mike Shannon for a

1785
01:45:03,860 --> 01:45:05,860
long two base hit.

1786
01:45:05,860 --> 01:45:13,860
That brings up Tim McCarver.

1787
01:45:13,860 --> 01:45:15,860
Tim McCarver has lined out the

1788
01:45:15,860 --> 01:45:16,860
center and single to right one

1789
01:45:16,860 --> 01:45:18,860
hit and two times at bat.

1790
01:45:18,860 --> 01:45:20,860
Now Casey has right hander Gary

1791
01:45:20,860 --> 01:45:21,860
Crowell working in the New York

1792
01:45:21,860 --> 01:45:31,860
Mets bullpen.

1793
01:45:31,860 --> 01:45:32,860
Nobody out Mike Shannon with

1794
01:45:32,860 --> 01:45:33,860
the out Mike Shannon leading off

1795
01:45:33,860 --> 01:45:36,860
second Warren Spon delivers he

1796
01:45:36,860 --> 01:45:38,860
punched the ball off the mound

1797
01:45:38,860 --> 01:45:39,860
comes by the runner will hold it

1798
01:45:39,860 --> 01:45:41,860
second thrown to first he got

1799
01:45:41,860 --> 01:45:44,860
him.

1800
01:45:44,860 --> 01:45:46,860
Tim McCarver was trying to find

1801
01:45:46,860 --> 01:45:47,860
a base hit.

1802
01:45:47,860 --> 01:45:48,860
Nobody in the ballpark was

1803
01:45:48,860 --> 01:45:49,860
looking for a bunch with St.

1804
01:45:49,860 --> 01:45:51,860
Louis three runs behind fast

1805
01:45:51,860 --> 01:45:54,860
fielding by Spani and he threw

1806
01:45:54,860 --> 01:46:06,860
the first in time.

1807
01:46:06,860 --> 01:46:08,860
We are getting the report on

1808
01:46:08,860 --> 01:46:10,860
Ron Hunt now.

1809
01:46:10,860 --> 01:46:11,860
We'll wait until we have the

1810
01:46:11,860 --> 01:46:13,860
complete report to pass it along

1811
01:46:13,860 --> 01:46:14,860
but we can tell you now the news

1812
01:46:14,860 --> 01:46:16,860
is not good.

1813
01:46:16,860 --> 01:46:18,860
Now the pitch to Gibson a swing

1814
01:46:18,860 --> 01:46:19,860
and a miss.

1815
01:46:19,860 --> 01:46:22,860
Frank one Ron Hunt suffered the

1816
01:46:22,860 --> 01:46:24,860
shoulder injury in a collision

1817
01:46:24,860 --> 01:46:29,860
with Bill Gagliano.

1818
01:46:29,860 --> 01:46:31,860
There are many medical words but

1819
01:46:31,860 --> 01:46:33,860
you describe it as a separation

1820
01:46:33,860 --> 01:46:35,860
in the left shoulder and Ron

1821
01:46:35,860 --> 01:46:38,860
will undergo surgery tomorrow.

1822
01:46:38,860 --> 01:46:39,860
So it's been a costly blow for

1823
01:46:39,860 --> 01:46:42,860
the New York Mets.

1824
01:46:42,860 --> 01:46:43,860
Pitch to Bob Gibson one ball and

1825
01:46:43,860 --> 01:46:44,860
one strike.

1826
01:46:44,860 --> 01:46:47,860
Ron Hunt and that's all star

1827
01:46:47,860 --> 01:46:48,860
second baseman suffered a

1828
01:46:48,860 --> 01:46:49,860
shoulder separation in the

1829
01:46:49,860 --> 01:46:51,860
collision with Bill Gagliano.

1830
01:46:51,860 --> 01:46:54,860
Ron will be operated on

1831
01:46:54,860 --> 01:46:55,860
tomorrow.

1832
01:46:55,860 --> 01:46:57,860
Dr. Peter Lamont the Mets team

1833
01:46:57,860 --> 01:47:01,860
physician will not venture an

1834
01:47:01,860 --> 01:47:03,860
estimate as to how long Ron will

1835
01:47:03,860 --> 01:47:04,860
be out until after the

1836
01:47:04,860 --> 01:47:05,860
operation.

1837
01:47:05,860 --> 01:47:07,860
So it's a real joke for the New

1838
01:47:07,860 --> 01:47:11,860
York Mets.

1839
01:47:11,860 --> 01:47:12,860
One ball one strike on Bob

1840
01:47:12,860 --> 01:47:13,860
Gibson.

1841
01:47:13,860 --> 01:47:15,860
Now the pitch by Spani strike a

1842
01:47:15,860 --> 01:47:22,860
screwball in the outside corner.

1843
01:47:22,860 --> 01:47:23,860
It would probably be a

1844
01:47:23,860 --> 01:47:24,860
conservative estimate and we are

1845
01:47:24,860 --> 01:47:26,860
doing nothing but guessing and

1846
01:47:26,860 --> 01:47:27,860
predicating it on past injuries

1847
01:47:27,860 --> 01:47:29,860
of a similar nature.

1848
01:47:29,860 --> 01:47:30,860
I would guess Ron will be out

1849
01:47:30,860 --> 01:47:35,860
for about two months.

1850
01:47:35,860 --> 01:47:36,860
One to delivery a looping fly

1851
01:47:36,860 --> 01:47:37,860
ball to short center.

1852
01:47:37,860 --> 01:47:39,860
In comes Ron Swabota.

1853
01:47:39,860 --> 01:47:40,860
He's under it and he makes the

1854
01:47:40,860 --> 01:47:41,860
catch.

1855
01:47:41,860 --> 01:47:42,860
Shannon holding on at second

1856
01:47:42,860 --> 01:47:46,860
base to him and down.

1857
01:47:46,860 --> 01:47:47,860
So Spani at Matty tough in the

1858
01:47:47,860 --> 01:47:49,860
clutch Gibson was two for two as

1859
01:47:49,860 --> 01:47:51,860
he came up and Spani gets him

1860
01:47:51,860 --> 01:47:52,860
on a fly ball in the short

1861
01:47:52,860 --> 01:47:57,860
center.

1862
01:47:57,860 --> 01:47:58,860
Now the hitter is Bill

1863
01:47:58,860 --> 01:48:00,860
Gagliano and the crowd riding

1864
01:48:00,860 --> 01:48:02,860
Gagliano a little bit.

1865
01:48:02,860 --> 01:48:03,860
As a result of this collision

1866
01:48:03,860 --> 01:48:05,860
with Ron.

1867
01:48:05,860 --> 01:48:07,860
Inaffairness was called and a

1868
01:48:07,860 --> 01:48:08,860
run denied the St. Louis

1869
01:48:08,860 --> 01:48:09,860
Cardinals.

1870
01:48:09,860 --> 01:48:11,860
Gagliano certainly did not do

1871
01:48:11,860 --> 01:48:12,860
it deliberately.

1872
01:48:12,860 --> 01:48:14,860
Now the pitcher on the way line

1873
01:48:14,860 --> 01:48:16,860
drive a base hit by Gagliano

1874
01:48:16,860 --> 01:48:18,860
rounding third is Shannon.

1875
01:48:18,860 --> 01:48:19,860
He'll come down the line to

1876
01:48:19,860 --> 01:48:21,860
score the play goes into second

1877
01:48:21,860 --> 01:48:22,860
and it's a three to one ball

1878
01:48:22,860 --> 01:48:23,860
game.

1879
01:48:23,860 --> 01:48:25,860
Bill Gagliano singling the left

1880
01:48:25,860 --> 01:48:30,860
scoring Mike Shannon.

1881
01:48:30,860 --> 01:48:32,860
Matter of fact when Gagliano

1882
01:48:32,860 --> 01:48:34,860
collided with Ron the batter

1883
01:48:34,860 --> 01:48:36,860
was Lou Brock one of the fastest

1884
01:48:36,860 --> 01:48:37,860
men in baseball.

1885
01:48:37,860 --> 01:48:39,860
That was just about the only way

1886
01:48:39,860 --> 01:48:40,860
on that ground ball that the

1887
01:48:40,860 --> 01:48:41,860
Cardinals could not have scored

1888
01:48:41,860 --> 01:48:47,860
a run.

1889
01:48:47,860 --> 01:48:49,860
Now the hitter is Lou Brock.

1890
01:48:49,860 --> 01:48:51,860
Louis sacrificed to ground it

1891
01:48:51,860 --> 01:48:52,860
out reached on a fielder's

1892
01:48:52,860 --> 01:48:53,860
choice as the result of the

1893
01:48:53,860 --> 01:48:54,860
collision.

1894
01:48:54,860 --> 01:48:56,860
Here's the pitch on the way a

1895
01:48:56,860 --> 01:48:57,860
swing and a miss.

1896
01:48:57,860 --> 01:49:08,860
Thank one.

1897
01:49:08,860 --> 01:49:12,860
That's three and the Cardinals

1898
01:49:12,860 --> 01:49:13,860
one were at the top of the

1899
01:49:13,860 --> 01:49:14,860
seventh inning.

1900
01:49:14,860 --> 01:49:17,860
Now Spaniard has his sign from

1901
01:49:17,860 --> 01:49:19,860
Chris Gagliano leading off first

1902
01:49:19,860 --> 01:49:22,860
base and the pitcher on the way

1903
01:49:22,860 --> 01:49:24,860
is inside he has to step back

1904
01:49:24,860 --> 01:49:25,860
a stride one ball one strike.

1905
01:49:25,860 --> 01:49:43,860
One ball one strike.

1906
01:49:43,860 --> 01:49:44,860
Now the pitcher on the way a

1907
01:49:44,860 --> 01:49:46,860
drive it deep the right center

1908
01:49:46,860 --> 01:49:47,860
field.

1909
01:49:47,860 --> 01:49:48,860
This one is up and going.

1910
01:49:48,860 --> 01:49:49,860
It is gone.

1911
01:49:49,860 --> 01:50:05,860
It's a home run to tie the ball

1912
01:50:05,860 --> 01:50:06,860
game.

1913
01:50:06,860 --> 01:50:07,860
Hey Louis has rally to tie the

1914
01:50:07,860 --> 01:50:08,860
ball game.

1915
01:50:08,860 --> 01:50:09,860
Lou Brock hitting a tremendous

1916
01:50:09,860 --> 01:50:11,860
home run the right center field

1917
01:50:11,860 --> 01:50:13,860
a planning Ryan drive over the

1918
01:50:13,860 --> 01:50:15,860
wall and right third home run of

1919
01:50:15,860 --> 01:50:16,860
the year.

1920
01:50:16,860 --> 01:50:18,860
His 12th and 13th runs out of

1921
01:50:18,860 --> 01:50:20,860
the game and the ball game is

1922
01:50:20,860 --> 01:50:22,860
now tied three to three.

1923
01:50:22,860 --> 01:50:23,860
Batter is Kurt Club the

1924
01:50:23,860 --> 01:50:28,860
center fielder.

1925
01:50:28,860 --> 01:50:30,860
Funny and always wind up.

1926
01:50:30,860 --> 01:50:31,860
Here's the pitch on the way and

1927
01:50:31,860 --> 01:50:32,860
it's over a strike on the

1928
01:50:32,860 --> 01:50:33,860
outside corner.

1929
01:50:33,860 --> 01:50:35,860
You know midnight tonight is the

1930
01:50:35,860 --> 01:50:37,860
cut down date tonight.

1931
01:50:37,860 --> 01:50:39,860
The hour that all the major

1932
01:50:39,860 --> 01:50:40,860
league ballgloves must reduce

1933
01:50:40,860 --> 01:50:45,860
their squad to twenty five men.

1934
01:50:45,860 --> 01:50:46,860
Slow bounding ball hit the

1935
01:50:46,860 --> 01:50:47,860
shortstop charge by McVillain.

1936
01:50:47,860 --> 01:50:52,860
He strikes and grows in time.

1937
01:50:52,860 --> 01:50:54,860
The San Luis unloading the

1938
01:50:54,860 --> 01:50:56,860
heavy artillery ties the game

1939
01:50:56,860 --> 01:50:58,860
on the seventh inning three runs

1940
01:50:58,860 --> 01:50:59,860
on a single double in the home

1941
01:50:59,860 --> 01:51:01,860
run three runs three hits no

1942
01:51:01,860 --> 01:51:03,860
errors none left on seven

1943
01:51:03,860 --> 01:51:04,860
winning stretch.

1944
01:51:04,860 --> 01:51:05,860
Damn here at Shea Stadium the

1945
01:51:05,860 --> 01:51:06,860
crowd getting to their feet to

1946
01:51:06,860 --> 01:51:08,860
score at the end of six and a

1947
01:51:08,860 --> 01:51:10,860
half St. Louis three and the New

1948
01:51:10,860 --> 01:51:12,860
York Mets three.

1949
01:51:12,860 --> 01:51:13,860
It's hard to imagine New York

1950
01:51:13,860 --> 01:51:15,860
City without every kind of jazz

1951
01:51:15,860 --> 01:51:17,860
from Dixieland of aggressive

1952
01:51:17,860 --> 01:51:19,860
fortunately you don't have to

1953
01:51:19,860 --> 01:51:30,860
listen.

1954
01:51:30,860 --> 01:51:32,860
That's Backstreet Rag a uniquely

1955
01:51:32,860 --> 01:51:34,860
American sound.

1956
01:51:34,860 --> 01:51:35,860
It came up the Mississippi out

1957
01:51:35,860 --> 01:51:37,860
of New Orleans with the Negro

1958
01:51:37,860 --> 01:51:38,860
jazz men who played it to the

1959
01:51:38,860 --> 01:51:40,860
world but they didn't stop with

1960
01:51:40,860 --> 01:51:42,860
Dixieland and the blues.

1961
01:51:42,860 --> 01:51:52,860
Little David's Fugue by John

1962
01:51:52,860 --> 01:51:54,860
Lewis is a new sound that's part

1963
01:51:54,860 --> 01:51:56,860
of a new generation but whether

1964
01:51:56,860 --> 01:51:58,860
it's the old jazz or the new

1965
01:51:58,860 --> 01:51:59,860
it's thirsty work for the

1966
01:51:59,860 --> 01:52:01,860
musicians and when they put

1967
01:52:01,860 --> 01:52:02,860
down their instruments they'll

1968
01:52:02,860 --> 01:52:04,860
pick up a cold beer often

1969
01:52:04,860 --> 01:52:06,860
wrangled extra dry.

1970
01:52:06,860 --> 01:52:08,860
In fact in New York City where

1971
01:52:08,860 --> 01:52:09,860
there are more kinds of jazz

1972
01:52:09,860 --> 01:52:10,860
than in any other city in the

1973
01:52:10,860 --> 01:52:12,860
world.

1974
01:52:12,860 --> 01:52:13,860
More people drink Wrangle than

1975
01:52:13,860 --> 01:52:14,860
any other beer.

1976
01:52:14,860 --> 01:52:15,860
Why do so many people like

1977
01:52:15,860 --> 01:52:16,860
Wrangle.

1978
01:52:16,860 --> 01:52:18,860
We don't know but we must be

1979
01:52:18,860 --> 01:52:22,860
doing something right.

1980
01:52:22,860 --> 01:52:24,860
One spot leading up last half of

1981
01:52:24,860 --> 01:52:26,860
the semifinal and he takes high

1982
01:52:26,860 --> 01:52:28,860
ball one.

1983
01:52:28,860 --> 01:52:29,860
We were mentioning earlier that

1984
01:52:29,860 --> 01:52:30,860
the Major League teams must

1985
01:52:30,860 --> 01:52:35,860
pair to 25 by midnight tonight.

1986
01:52:35,860 --> 01:52:36,860
Here's the pitch on the way

1987
01:52:36,860 --> 01:52:39,860
inside and high ball to the Mets

1988
01:52:39,860 --> 01:52:41,860
although the names have not been

1989
01:52:41,860 --> 01:52:42,860
announced as yet undoubtedly have

1990
01:52:42,860 --> 01:52:43,860
made their decisions as we are

1991
01:52:43,860 --> 01:52:45,860
close to midnight.

1992
01:52:45,860 --> 01:52:47,860
The crippling entry to Ron Hunt

1993
01:52:47,860 --> 01:52:49,860
probably will mean that Ron will

1994
01:52:49,860 --> 01:52:50,860
have to go on a disabled list.

1995
01:52:50,860 --> 01:52:53,860
Now will cause the thinking to

1996
01:52:53,860 --> 01:52:56,860
be altered.

1997
01:52:56,860 --> 01:52:57,860
Ron suffering a shoulder

1998
01:52:57,860 --> 01:52:59,860
separation will undergo surgery

1999
01:52:59,860 --> 01:53:01,860
tomorrow.

2000
01:53:01,860 --> 01:53:02,860
Fastball over a call strike gets

2001
01:53:02,860 --> 01:53:05,860
two and one.

2002
01:53:05,860 --> 01:53:06,860
I'm sure that Ron will be out of

2003
01:53:06,860 --> 01:53:07,860
the lineup at least a month and

2004
01:53:07,860 --> 01:53:12,860
probably longer.

2005
01:53:12,860 --> 01:53:13,860
Do one delivery inside the

2006
01:53:13,860 --> 01:53:15,860
highest ball three.

2007
01:53:15,860 --> 01:53:16,860
If a player is placed on the

2008
01:53:16,860 --> 01:53:17,860
disabled list he must remain

2009
01:53:17,860 --> 01:53:20,860
there at least 30 days.

2010
01:53:20,860 --> 01:53:21,860
The Mets have a Kevin Collins

2011
01:53:21,860 --> 01:53:23,860
on the disabled list right now.

2012
01:53:23,860 --> 01:53:25,860
Kevin was operated on shortly

2013
01:53:25,860 --> 01:53:30,860
after the season got underway.

2014
01:53:30,860 --> 01:53:31,860
Three and one the count.

2015
01:53:31,860 --> 01:53:33,860
Here's the pitch by Gibson foul

2016
01:53:33,860 --> 01:53:34,860
back into the screen amount of

2017
01:53:34,860 --> 01:53:36,860
play.

2018
01:53:36,860 --> 01:53:38,860
Now the word has been flashed on

2019
01:53:38,860 --> 01:53:39,860
the message board in right

2020
01:53:39,860 --> 01:53:41,860
center field to notify the big

2021
01:53:41,860 --> 01:53:42,860
crowd of about twenty five

2022
01:53:42,860 --> 01:53:44,860
thousand here at Shea.

2023
01:53:44,860 --> 01:53:45,860
Ron Hunt has a complete

2024
01:53:45,860 --> 01:53:49,860
separation of the left shoulder.

2025
01:53:49,860 --> 01:53:50,860
His return to the lineup will be

2026
01:53:50,860 --> 01:53:56,860
classified as indefinite.

2027
01:53:56,860 --> 01:53:57,860
Three and two on Spani Gibson's

2028
01:53:57,860 --> 01:54:00,860
pitch ball four hits inside and

2029
01:54:00,860 --> 01:54:02,860
Spani walks for the second time.

2030
01:54:02,860 --> 01:54:04,860
He drew a key walk in the fifth

2031
01:54:04,860 --> 01:54:16,860
inning.

2032
01:54:16,860 --> 01:54:18,860
Bob Gibson now has walked for

2033
01:54:18,860 --> 01:54:20,860
a struck out five allowed three

2034
01:54:20,860 --> 01:54:29,860
runs given up seven hits.

2035
01:54:29,860 --> 01:54:30,860
Now the batter is Bobby Klaus.

2036
01:54:30,860 --> 01:54:31,860
Bobby's had a good night at the

2037
01:54:31,860 --> 01:54:33,860
play with a single and a double

2038
01:54:33,860 --> 01:54:35,860
in three times at bat.

2039
01:54:35,860 --> 01:54:36,860
Ken Boyer and close at third

2040
01:54:36,860 --> 01:54:40,860
looking for the sacrifice but

2041
01:54:40,860 --> 01:54:42,860
he's around the bunt doesn't

2042
01:54:42,860 --> 01:54:57,860
offer it's over strike one.

2043
01:54:57,860 --> 01:54:58,860
Charlie Smith the on deck

2044
01:54:58,860 --> 01:55:09,860
batter and then Johnny Lewis

2045
01:55:09,860 --> 01:55:11,860
now the stretch a pitch out

2046
01:55:11,860 --> 01:55:13,860
nothing was on one ball one

2047
01:55:13,860 --> 01:55:16,860
strike on Bobby Klaus.

2048
01:55:16,860 --> 01:55:18,860
So this certainly has been a

2049
01:55:18,860 --> 01:55:20,860
hard luck year for one of the

2050
01:55:20,860 --> 01:55:22,860
strappiest players in the game.

2051
01:55:22,860 --> 01:55:25,860
Ron Hunt Ron was battle in

2052
01:55:25,860 --> 01:55:27,860
spring training due to an injury

2053
01:55:27,860 --> 01:55:28,860
to his right hand and had just

2054
01:55:28,860 --> 01:55:30,860
gotten back in a swing and a

2055
01:55:30,860 --> 01:55:32,860
miss on a curve one ball and two

2056
01:55:32,860 --> 01:55:41,860
strikes.

2057
01:55:41,860 --> 01:55:43,860
Real good ball game going here

2058
01:55:43,860 --> 01:55:44,860
tonight between the Mets and the

2059
01:55:44,860 --> 01:55:46,860
world champions and is tied three

2060
01:55:46,860 --> 01:55:47,860
to three.

2061
01:55:47,860 --> 01:55:48,860
Gibson's pitch on the way a

2062
01:55:48,860 --> 01:55:49,860
swing and a miss he struck him

2063
01:55:49,860 --> 01:55:50,860
out.

2064
01:55:50,860 --> 01:55:52,860
Bobby struck out by Gibson that

2065
01:55:52,860 --> 01:55:53,860
is his sixth strike out of the

2066
01:55:53,860 --> 01:56:00,860
game.

2067
01:56:00,860 --> 01:56:01,860
Charlie Smith coming up Charlie

2068
01:56:01,860 --> 01:56:02,860
beat out an infield hit the

2069
01:56:02,860 --> 01:56:04,860
shortstop his only time at bat

2070
01:56:04,860 --> 01:56:18,860
in the sixth inning.

2071
01:56:18,860 --> 01:56:20,860
Fastball outside one ball no

2072
01:56:20,860 --> 01:56:23,860
strikes.

2073
01:56:23,860 --> 01:56:24,860
Charlie with good power the

2074
01:56:24,860 --> 01:56:26,860
cardinal outfield rather deep

2075
01:56:26,860 --> 01:56:27,860
and around toward left.

2076
01:56:27,860 --> 01:56:29,860
The wind tonight has been from

2077
01:56:29,860 --> 01:56:31,860
left across toward right.

2078
01:56:31,860 --> 01:56:42,860
Curve is foul tipped.

2079
01:56:42,860 --> 01:56:43,860
One ball one strike on Charlie

2080
01:56:43,860 --> 01:56:45,860
with Johnny Lewis on Deacon and

2081
01:56:45,860 --> 01:56:59,860
Joe Christopher.

2082
01:56:59,860 --> 01:57:00,860
Fastball a strike on the outside

2083
01:57:00,860 --> 01:57:02,860
corner now one and two on Charlie

2084
01:57:02,860 --> 01:57:15,860
Smith.

2085
01:57:15,860 --> 01:57:16,860
Bill White holes against Warren

2086
01:57:16,860 --> 01:57:18,860
Spahn the curve is over strike

2087
01:57:18,860 --> 01:57:20,860
three.

2088
01:57:20,860 --> 01:57:23,860
But he did not like the call.

2089
01:57:23,860 --> 01:57:24,860
Now walk slowly away and that's

2090
01:57:24,860 --> 01:57:26,860
the seventh strikeout for Bob

2091
01:57:26,860 --> 01:57:29,860
Gibson.

2092
01:57:29,860 --> 01:57:32,860
Gibson among the top three in

2093
01:57:32,860 --> 01:57:33,860
strikeouts at the end of last

2094
01:57:33,860 --> 01:57:37,860
season in the National League.

2095
01:57:37,860 --> 01:57:39,860
La Ville of the Pirates with

2096
01:57:39,860 --> 01:57:40,860
two hundred and fifty won the

2097
01:57:40,860 --> 01:57:42,860
strikeout championship.

2098
01:57:42,860 --> 01:57:44,860
Gibson in second place was only

2099
01:57:44,860 --> 01:57:46,860
five behind him.

2100
01:57:46,860 --> 01:57:47,860
Now Johnny Lewis up Johnny has

2101
01:57:47,860 --> 01:57:50,860
one for three and Gibson steps

2102
01:57:50,860 --> 01:57:53,860
off holding spot.

2103
01:57:53,860 --> 01:58:00,860
Spahn has really had a workout

2104
01:58:00,860 --> 01:58:01,860
tonight.

2105
01:58:01,860 --> 01:58:02,860
Swing and a miss strike one and

2106
01:58:02,860 --> 01:58:03,860
Johnny gave that one the big

2107
01:58:03,860 --> 01:58:14,860
rep.

2108
01:58:14,860 --> 01:58:15,860
Now Bob Gibson in the stop

2109
01:58:15,860 --> 01:58:16,860
position delivers to Johnny

2110
01:58:16,860 --> 01:58:19,860
Lewis a breaking ball outside

2111
01:58:19,860 --> 01:58:20,860
one ball and one strike on

2112
01:58:20,860 --> 01:58:23,860
Lewis.

2113
01:58:23,860 --> 01:58:24,860
Johnny hit a line single into

2114
01:58:24,860 --> 01:58:25,860
right field and later scored a

2115
01:58:25,860 --> 01:58:28,860
run in the sixth inning.

2116
01:58:28,860 --> 01:58:29,860
Prior to that he fly deep to

2117
01:58:29,860 --> 01:58:30,860

02:06:29,860 --> 02:06:32,860
off the run the game tied three

2305
02:06:32,860 --> 02:06:33,860
three and Bill White is the

2306
02:06:33,860 --> 02:06:48,860
batter we're in the eighth inning

2307
02:06:48,860 --> 02:06:49,860
Bill White has been struck out

2308
02:06:49,860 --> 02:06:51,860
lined out to second and grounded

2309
02:06:51,860 --> 02:06:57,860
out to second

2310
02:06:57,860 --> 02:06:59,860
the infield camp tight on the edge

2311
02:06:59,860 --> 02:07:03,860
of the infield grass now Warren's

2312
02:07:03,860 --> 02:07:05,860
farm is into his land at the

2313
02:07:05,860 --> 02:07:07,860
pitch to white missed the inside

2314
02:07:07,860 --> 02:07:09,860
corner he's cut him off with a

2315
02:07:09,860 --> 02:07:23,860
fastball one ball and no strike

2316
02:07:23,860 --> 02:07:25,860
outfield rather deep and around

2317
02:07:25,860 --> 02:07:26,860
arrival the infield pulled in with

2318
02:07:26,860 --> 02:07:29,860
the runner on third one down low

2319
02:07:29,860 --> 02:07:31,860
and inside it's ball to two balls

2320
02:07:31,860 --> 02:07:39,860
with no strikes on white

2321
02:07:39,860 --> 02:07:41,860
Bill had a slow start last year

2322
02:07:41,860 --> 02:07:42,860
and then he hit a ton from the

2323
02:07:42,860 --> 02:07:43,860
all-star break to the end of the

2324
02:07:43,860 --> 02:07:44,860
year to help the Cardinals to the

2325
02:07:44,860 --> 02:07:51,860
championship

2326
02:07:51,860 --> 02:07:52,860
Bonnie has the runner at third the

2327
02:07:52,860 --> 02:07:56,860
two-oh pitch ball three Genizaro

2328
02:07:56,860 --> 02:07:57,860
Blossom throw down to Charlie

2329
02:07:57,860 --> 02:07:59,860
Smith at third and now Warren has

2330
02:07:59,860 --> 02:08:01,860
gone behind on white three and oh

2331
02:08:01,860 --> 02:08:03,860
right fielder Mike Shannon is the

2332
02:08:03,860 --> 02:08:20,860
on deck batter

2333
02:08:20,860 --> 02:08:22,860
Warren out of his lined up three

2334
02:08:22,860 --> 02:08:24,860
oh delivery ball for and he walks

2335
02:08:24,860 --> 02:08:36,860
white on four pitches

2336
02:08:36,860 --> 02:08:38,860
that is the fourth walk given up

2337
02:08:38,860 --> 02:08:40,860
by as funny now the mess will play

2338
02:08:40,860 --> 02:08:42,860
the infield halfway and hope for a

2339
02:08:42,860 --> 02:08:45,860
shot at the double play that could

2340
02:08:45,860 --> 02:08:50,860
be a good one press the button on

2341
02:08:50,860 --> 02:08:52,860
the escape that Shannon a very fast

2342
02:08:52,860 --> 02:08:54,860
man not an easy man to double up

2343
02:08:54,860 --> 02:08:57,860
he's a full hitter the infield in

2344
02:08:57,860 --> 02:08:58,860
the outfield play him around the

2345
02:08:58,860 --> 02:09:01,860
left of the infield set halfway now

2346
02:09:01,860 --> 02:09:04,860
the stretch the pitch to Shannon

2347
02:09:04,860 --> 02:09:07,860
low and outside ball one finally

2348
02:09:07,860 --> 02:09:08,860
will be trying to make him hit the

2349
02:09:08,860 --> 02:09:24,860
breaking ball looking for that

2350
02:09:24,860 --> 02:09:25,860
grounder Mike Shannon started the

2351
02:09:25,860 --> 02:09:31,860
card open now the pitch on the way

2352
02:09:31,860 --> 02:09:39,860
knee high strike one ball one strike

2353
02:09:39,860 --> 02:09:42,860
that growth is on third base Bill

2354
02:09:42,860 --> 02:09:47,860
White on first one man out Bobby

2355
02:09:47,860 --> 02:09:50,860
Klaus shaded towards second against

2356
02:09:50,860 --> 02:09:51,860
Shannon the pole hitter and Roy

2357
02:09:51,860 --> 02:09:53,860
McMillan playing a stride over

2358
02:09:53,860 --> 02:09:54,860
toward the hole on the left side of

2359
02:09:54,860 --> 02:10:01,860
the family in the dirt blocked by

2360
02:10:01,860 --> 02:10:02,860
Canada's arrow Chris keeps the ball

2361
02:10:02,860 --> 02:10:05,860
in front of him no advance in the

2362
02:10:05,860 --> 02:10:22,860
count two and one

2363
02:10:22,860 --> 02:10:23,860
mighty crucial moment right here for

2364
02:10:23,860 --> 02:10:26,860
the New York Mets runners at first

2365
02:10:26,860 --> 02:10:27,860
and third one out Shannon the

2366
02:10:27,860 --> 02:10:32,860
batter McCriver is on deck now

2367
02:10:32,860 --> 02:10:35,860
Spahn comes into the set position

2368
02:10:35,860 --> 02:10:37,860
delivers two and one down low it's

2369
02:10:37,860 --> 02:10:41,860
ball three body is not a while he is

2370
02:10:41,860 --> 02:10:44,860
just going all out to make the

2371
02:10:44,860 --> 02:10:45,860
batter hit a breaking ball right

2372
02:10:45,860 --> 02:10:47,860
down around the knees as he looks

2373
02:10:47,860 --> 02:11:01,860
for that double play ball now it's

2374
02:11:01,860 --> 02:11:06,860
three and one on Shannon the

2375
02:11:06,860 --> 02:11:09,860
runners take a lead three one pitch

2376
02:11:09,860 --> 02:11:12,860
ball for that loads them up the bases

2377
02:11:12,860 --> 02:11:14,860
are loaded and Tim McCarver is coming

2378
02:11:14,860 --> 02:11:19,860
up five walks in the game that

2379
02:11:19,860 --> 02:11:21,860
by Spahn he had that is an unusual

2380
02:11:21,860 --> 02:11:22,860
number of walks for him in a ball

2381
02:11:22,860 --> 02:11:33,860
game prior to this ball game that

2382
02:11:33,860 --> 02:11:36,860
you can imagine it Spahn had walked

2383
02:11:36,860 --> 02:11:39,860
only three men in forty one innings

2384
02:11:39,860 --> 02:11:42,860
tonight one now has walked five

2385
02:11:42,860 --> 02:11:46,860
mighty troublesome situation the bases

2386
02:11:46,860 --> 02:11:49,860
loaded one out McCarver is the batter

2387
02:11:49,860 --> 02:11:51,860
sidearm delivery of Scribler foul off

2388
02:11:51,860 --> 02:11:53,860
to the right no play at strike one on

2389
02:11:53,860 --> 02:12:02,860
Tim McCarver

2390
02:12:02,860 --> 02:12:04,860
that road is on third bill white on

2391
02:12:04,860 --> 02:12:12,860
second Mike Shannon on first

2392
02:12:12,860 --> 02:12:14,860
Tim McCarver has lined the center

2393
02:12:14,860 --> 02:12:16,860
single to right and fouled out on a

2394
02:12:16,860 --> 02:12:17,860
bun attempt he was running for a base

2395
02:12:17,860 --> 02:12:24,860
hit

2396
02:12:24,860 --> 02:12:26,860
now Spahn he looks the runner grog

2397
02:12:26,860 --> 02:12:29,860
back to third down comes his fifth a

2398
02:12:29,860 --> 02:12:30,860
slow ground ball on the right side of

2399
02:12:30,860 --> 02:12:32,860
the dam and the only play will be at

2400
02:12:32,860 --> 02:12:35,860
first to run scores ball was not hit

2401
02:12:35,860 --> 02:12:36,860
sharply enough to give them as a chance

2402
02:12:36,860 --> 02:12:39,860
for a double play to bail out of it so

2403
02:12:39,860 --> 02:12:40,860
growth comes in to score the Cardinals

2404
02:12:40,860 --> 02:12:43,860
around in front four to three Tim

2405
02:12:43,860 --> 02:12:47,860
McCarver is thrown out by Bobby Klaus

2406
02:12:47,860 --> 02:12:49,860
so Spahn he got the batter to do what

2407
02:12:49,860 --> 02:12:50,860
he wanted him to do hit the ball in the

2408
02:12:50,860 --> 02:12:52,860
ground but it was not hit hard enough to

2409
02:12:52,860 --> 02:12:56,860
give the Mets a shot at the double play

2410
02:12:56,860 --> 02:13:00,860
run batted in for Tim McCarver and a

2411
02:13:00,860 --> 02:13:02,860
dangerous hitter the Cardinal pitcher

2412
02:13:02,860 --> 02:13:05,860
Bob Gibson is up he has two for three

2413
02:13:05,860 --> 02:13:07,860
runners on second and third swing and a

2414
02:13:07,860 --> 02:13:20,860
miss thank one

2415
02:13:20,860 --> 02:13:22,860
bill white is on third Mike Shannon on

2416
02:13:22,860 --> 02:13:27,860
second two men out St. Louis in front

2417
02:13:27,860 --> 02:13:29,860
four to three a Spahn swings out of his

2418
02:13:29,860 --> 02:13:32,860
windup now the pitch foul ball back over

2419
02:13:32,860 --> 02:13:35,860
our broadcasting booth and out of play

2420
02:13:35,860 --> 02:13:37,860
but now Spahn with a two strike count on

2421
02:13:37,860 --> 02:13:54,860
Gibson

2422
02:13:54,860 --> 02:13:56,860
Bonnie trying to work out of it

2423
02:13:56,860 --> 02:13:58,860
glances the lead runner back at third

2424
02:13:58,860 --> 02:14:00,860
now goes over the head and the pitch to

2425
02:14:00,860 --> 02:14:02,860
Gibson is a pop-up in the short left

2426
02:14:02,860 --> 02:14:04,860
back goes McMillan back he goes back

2427
02:14:04,860 --> 02:14:07,860
he goes oh what a catch he's got it he

2428
02:14:07,860 --> 02:14:16,860
topples over but he holds on to it

2429
02:14:16,860 --> 02:14:18,860
somersaulting catch by Roy McMillan on

2430
02:14:18,860 --> 02:14:21,860
the bid for a Texas Lake Bay set a pop

2431
02:14:21,860 --> 02:14:24,860
fly into short left field almost beyond

2432
02:14:24,860 --> 02:14:27,860
the reach of Roy and after a long run

2433
02:14:27,860 --> 02:14:30,860
he learns he grabbed a somersaulted he

2434
02:14:30,860 --> 02:14:32,860
held on to it and the side is out one

2435
02:14:32,860 --> 02:14:35,860
run one hit that was a triple by Dick

2436
02:14:35,860 --> 02:14:38,860
Grode with one man out no errors and two

2437
02:14:38,860 --> 02:14:41,860
left on and the score at the end of seven

2438
02:14:41,860 --> 02:14:43,860
and a half innings the St. Louis Cardinals

2439
02:14:43,860 --> 02:14:47,860
four and the New York Mets three and now

2440
02:14:47,860 --> 02:14:50,860
it's time for another unusual fact from

2441
02:14:50,860 --> 02:14:53,860
the Viceroy Hall of Records you know the

2442
02:14:53,860 --> 02:14:55,860
way managers shuffle their lineups in

2443
02:14:55,860 --> 02:14:58,860
modern baseball here's a record we think

2444
02:14:58,860 --> 02:15:01,860
will stand for a long long time when

2445
02:15:01,860 --> 02:15:03,860
Connie Mack was managing the Philadelphia

2446
02:15:03,860 --> 02:15:06,860
A's they played two complete World Series

2447
02:15:06,860 --> 02:15:09,860
using only nine men and each ballgame

2448
02:15:09,860 --> 02:15:12,860
not even a relief pitcher. Connie went

2449
02:15:12,860 --> 02:15:14,860
with his best and he needed no

2450
02:15:14,860 --> 02:15:17,860
substitutes and in the filter cigarette

2451
02:15:17,860 --> 02:15:19,860
league you'll never want a substitute

2452
02:15:19,860 --> 02:15:21,860
for Viceroy because Viceroy specifically

2453
02:15:21,860 --> 02:15:23,860
designed to taste the way you'd like a

2454
02:15:23,860 --> 02:15:26,860
filter cigarette to taste not too strong

2455
02:15:26,860 --> 02:15:28,860
like some brands that taste as if they

2456
02:15:28,860 --> 02:15:31,860
didn't have a filter and not too light

2457
02:15:31,860 --> 02:15:34,860
like some others you know the kind they

2458
02:15:34,860 --> 02:15:36,860
just don't seem to satisfy your taste

2459
02:15:36,860 --> 02:15:39,860
but you line up a Viceroy you get the

2460
02:15:39,860 --> 02:15:41,860
filter cigarette that's not too strong

2461
02:15:41,860 --> 02:15:44,860
not too light Viceroy has got the filter

2462
02:15:44,860 --> 02:15:47,860
for the taste that's right.

2463
02:15:47,860 --> 02:15:50,860
Viceroy's got the taste that's right

2464
02:15:50,860 --> 02:15:53,860
not too strong and not too light

2465
02:15:53,860 --> 02:15:57,860
so taste that's right.

2466
02:15:57,860 --> 02:16:02,860
Eddie Cranebool leading off the last of the eighth inning hits one off the bat handle

2467
02:16:02,860 --> 02:16:04,860
a glooping drive and a short left rough

2468
02:16:04,860 --> 02:16:07,860
ace hit. That ball landed just about where the one

2469
02:16:07,860 --> 02:16:09,860
McMillan caught to retire the Cardinals.

2470
02:16:09,860 --> 02:16:11,860
The one hit by Cranebool did not have any

2471
02:16:11,860 --> 02:16:15,860
height to it. It was kind of a soft line drive.

2472
02:16:15,860 --> 02:16:18,860
So Eddie Cranebool is on, nobody out.

2473
02:16:18,860 --> 02:16:20,860
Batter is Ron Swaboda.

2474
02:16:20,860 --> 02:16:24,860
This has been by far and away the toughest night for young Ron.

2475
02:16:24,860 --> 02:16:26,860
He's been up three times and been struck out three.

2476
02:16:26,860 --> 02:16:31,860
He's fast.

2477
02:16:31,860 --> 02:16:33,860
8-10 on your dials connected to New York.

2478
02:16:33,860 --> 02:16:45,860
Your New York Mets station.

2479
02:16:45,860 --> 02:16:48,860
Now the Mets are running behind and needing a long ball

2480
02:16:48,860 --> 02:16:51,860
have Jesse Gander batting for Roy McMillan.

2481
02:16:51,860 --> 02:16:54,860
Mack has three for three and a driven two runs in

2482
02:16:54,860 --> 02:16:57,860
but it's percentage baseball against the fireballing right hander.

2483
02:16:57,860 --> 02:17:01,860
And so Casey has Jesse Gander who can hit one out of a ballpark

2484
02:17:01,860 --> 02:17:06,860
stepping in against Gibson.

2485
02:17:06,860 --> 02:17:09,860
Marty Schultz and Ron Taylor are warming up for St. Louis

2486
02:17:09,860 --> 02:17:12,860
any right hand for the Mets.

2487
02:17:12,860 --> 02:17:22,860
Curve is low, one ball and no strike.

2488
02:17:22,860 --> 02:17:24,860
Gibson a fast worker on the mound.

2489
02:17:24,860 --> 02:17:27,860
Cranebool a short lead off first.

2490
02:17:27,860 --> 02:17:32,860
Curve is high, ball two, it's 2-0 on Jesse Gander.

2491
02:17:32,860 --> 02:17:37,860
And that's the first time that young Ron Swaboda has really been overpowered.

2492
02:17:37,860 --> 02:17:41,860
He's not the first hitter by any means to be overpowered by Bob Gibson

2493
02:17:41,860 --> 02:17:45,860
who was second in the national league in strikeouts last year.

2494
02:17:45,860 --> 02:17:56,860
Too high, ball three and he really buzzed that one.

2495
02:17:56,860 --> 02:18:01,860
Jim Hickman coming out on deck to hit the first count of zero.

2496
02:18:01,860 --> 02:18:05,860
Now let's see how the Mets play at this 3-0 on Jesse Gander.

2497
02:18:05,860 --> 02:18:07,860
The Mets are one behind.

2498
02:18:07,860 --> 02:18:18,860
Down the middle he was taking on the count of three and one.

2499
02:18:18,860 --> 02:18:20,860
Three balls and a strike on Jesse Gander.

2500
02:18:20,860 --> 02:18:22,860
Bill White holding against Ed Cranebool.

2501
02:18:22,860 --> 02:18:24,860
Here's the pitch on the way.

2502
02:18:24,860 --> 02:18:27,860
Foul ball, back upstairs and out of play.

2503
02:18:27,860 --> 02:18:49,860
Now it's 3-2.

2504
02:18:49,860 --> 02:18:56,860
3-2 on Jesse Gander.

2505
02:18:56,860 --> 02:19:00,860
Now Jesse gets out of the batter's box to get a handful of dirt.

2506
02:19:00,860 --> 02:19:03,860
Break a little bit of the tension here with New York one behind,

2507
02:19:03,860 --> 02:19:05,860
bottom half of the eighth inning.

2508
02:19:05,860 --> 02:19:07,860
Gibson stretching, here's the pitch.

2509
02:19:07,860 --> 02:19:09,860
Ball four, the breaking ball misses.

2510
02:19:09,860 --> 02:19:12,860
Now the tying run goes over to second Eddie Cranebool.

2511
02:19:12,860 --> 02:19:18,860
Gander goes down to first and Jim Hickman is coming up to bat for Chris Cannazero.

2512
02:19:18,860 --> 02:19:40,860
Bill Hickman is coming in the ball game as a runner for Eddie Cranebool.

2513
02:19:40,860 --> 02:19:45,860
So Billy Callahan who can really fly checks him to run for Eddie Cranebool.

2514
02:19:45,860 --> 02:19:48,860
He represents the tying run at second base.

2515
02:19:48,860 --> 02:19:53,860
And Bob Gibson wants to talk this over with Dick Groats.

2516
02:19:53,860 --> 02:20:02,860
Danny Murtaugh always said when he was managing the Pirates that having Dick Groats on the field is like having a manager on the diamond.

2517
02:20:02,860 --> 02:20:09,860
Jim Hickman is batting for Chris Cannazero.

2518
02:20:09,860 --> 02:20:13,860
This has been a ball game and with Gibson has had great stuff, but he has had the battle he's controlled.

2519
02:20:13,860 --> 02:20:18,860
He has walked six, but has struck out eight men.

2520
02:20:18,860 --> 02:20:25,860
Mets trailing four to three. Runners on first and second one out.

2521
02:20:25,860 --> 02:20:27,860
Gibson a flamethrower, Hickman a good fastball hitter.

2522
02:20:27,860 --> 02:20:37,860
Now the pitch on the way. Grounded foul in behind Don Hefner on the lines at third.

2523
02:20:37,860 --> 02:20:45,860
Big gathering here at Shea hoping to be able to come up with that roar if the Mets can deliver a base hit to get Callahan around.

2524
02:20:45,860 --> 02:20:52,860
Callahan turned in one of the finest individual performances in helping the Mets to win the second ball game on Sunday.

2525
02:20:52,860 --> 02:20:57,860
The Mets fans have ever seen. He made a remarkable catch to save the ball game.

2526
02:20:57,860 --> 02:21:09,860
He also as a fence hitter doubled home a run and it was a key run.

2527
02:21:09,860 --> 02:21:12,860
The runners take a short lead. The pitch to Hickman.

2528
02:21:12,860 --> 02:21:23,860
Outside and low McTanner takes it out of the dirt. One ball, one strike.

2529
02:21:23,860 --> 02:21:29,860
Warren Spahn kneeling in the on deck circle.

2530
02:21:29,860 --> 02:21:32,860
The Mets will have a revised lineup of the ninth inning.

2531
02:21:32,860 --> 02:21:46,860
Fastball over a blazer and it counts one ball and two strikes.

2532
02:21:46,860 --> 02:21:52,860
Now Gibson is working in front on the count. It's one ball and two strikes on bench batter Jim Hickman.

2533
02:21:52,860 --> 02:21:57,860
Down comes the pitch. Foul ball, back to the crowd. There'll be no play.

2534
02:21:57,860 --> 02:22:05,860
Count remains the same.

2535
02:22:05,860 --> 02:22:16,860
Now it seems the Mets have had just one exciting one run ball game right after another.

2536
02:22:16,860 --> 02:22:20,860
Now Gibson delivers one and two. Strike three called.

2537
02:22:20,860 --> 02:22:24,860
Hickman has got looking at a fastball on the outside corner.

2538
02:22:24,860 --> 02:22:29,860
That's the ninth strikeout in the ball game.

2539
02:22:29,860 --> 02:22:34,860
Danny Napoleon now is coming out to hit for Warren Spahn.

2540
02:22:34,860 --> 02:22:38,860
Gibson has his ninth strikeout.

2541
02:22:38,860 --> 02:22:43,860
Danny Napoleon, the first year player from Trenton, New Jersey, is coming out to hit against Gibson.

2542
02:22:43,860 --> 02:22:49,860
The Cardinals gather at the mound because they have never seen Danny Napoleon in a regular season ball game.

2543
02:22:49,860 --> 02:22:51,860
They did see him during the spring.

2544
02:22:51,860 --> 02:22:56,860
The Mets and the Cardinals played five games in the area of St. Petersburg.

2545
02:22:56,860 --> 02:23:11,860
So manager Red Shandies goes to the mound to be sure that the Cardinals remember this young fellow from the games down south.

2546
02:23:11,860 --> 02:23:16,860
Casey now sending up his third straight pinch hitter.

2547
02:23:16,860 --> 02:23:27,860
Red Shandies is motioning to Shannon, the right fielder, and he wants him to play him a little more toward right center.

2548
02:23:27,860 --> 02:23:35,860
But now Shannon is moving over toward right center against Danny Napoleon, which is quite a tribute to Danny against one of the hardest throwers in baseball.

2549
02:23:35,860 --> 02:23:40,860
Red figures his bat is fast enough to get around.

2550
02:23:40,860 --> 02:23:48,860
Now the stretch. Pitch to Napoleon. Swing and a miss, strike one.

2551
02:23:48,860 --> 02:23:59,860
Gibson has won five and lost none. He's had three shutouts and five victories.

2552
02:23:59,860 --> 02:24:04,860
Here's the pitcher on the way. It's right in there at the knees for a tall strike.

2553
02:24:04,860 --> 02:24:18,860
So now Danny Napoleon will have to really battle Gibson out in front of him with a two-strike count.

2554
02:24:18,860 --> 02:24:24,860
Mets have played 25 games, 11 of their 25 decided by one run.

2555
02:24:24,860 --> 02:24:42,860
Foul ball, wafted back up toward the mezzanine section. No play, and the count remains strike two on Danny Napoleon.

2556
02:24:42,860 --> 02:24:47,860
Gibson ready in the two-strike pitch, and it's a high fly ball to center field.

2557
02:24:47,860 --> 02:24:52,860
Center fielder Kurt Flood is under it. He taps the glove and puts it away, the side is out.

2558
02:24:52,860 --> 02:24:59,860
Now Napoleon flies to center after falling behind on a two-strike pitch, and the side is out of the eighth inning.

2559
02:24:59,860 --> 02:25:02,860
No runs, one hit, no errors, two left on.

2560
02:25:02,860 --> 02:25:09,860
At the end of eight innings to score, the St. Louis Cardinals four and the New York Mets three.

2561
02:25:09,860 --> 02:25:14,860
Day game tomorrow between New York and St. Louis with Jack Fisher pitching against Kurt Simmons.

2562
02:25:14,860 --> 02:25:19,860
Thursday, an open date. Friday night the Reds are here starting a four-game weekend series.

2563
02:25:19,860 --> 02:25:27,860
Tickets on sale at the advanced sale window here at Shea Stadium in midtown Manhattan in the Long Island Railroad waiting room at Penn Station

2564
02:25:27,860 --> 02:25:32,860
at Grand Central Terminal at the foot of the 42nd Street and Vanderbilt Avenue ramp.

2565
02:25:32,860 --> 02:25:39,860
The Mets also have tickets available and on sale at Macy's in the Wal-Wilson Shopping Center in Huntington.

2566
02:25:39,860 --> 02:25:50,860
Reservations for box and reserve seats can be made at all Howard Clothes stores in the greater New York area.

2567
02:25:50,860 --> 02:25:56,860
Now Wes Westrom bringing the revised lineup out to the home plate umpire Augie Donatelli.

2568
02:25:56,860 --> 02:26:04,860
Jim Hickman is now playing first base.

2569
02:26:04,860 --> 02:26:08,860
Catcher has not appeared as yet. Bobby Klaus remains at second.

2570
02:26:08,860 --> 02:26:12,860
Charlie Smith will now be playing short.

2571
02:26:12,860 --> 02:26:16,860
Danny Napoleon will be at third.

2572
02:26:16,860 --> 02:26:22,860
Denny Rybant is coming on to pitch and Jesse Gander will be behind to play.

2573
02:26:22,860 --> 02:26:32,860
So it's a completely revised infield for the New York Mets as we go to the ninth inning.

2574
02:26:32,860 --> 02:26:38,860
Warren Spahn leaving the ballgame for a pinch hitter after eight innings.

2575
02:26:38,860 --> 02:26:42,860
Another solid effort by Warren Spahn.

2576
02:26:42,860 --> 02:26:49,860
Spahn is controlled not nearly as sharp tonight as it has been at each of his previous outings.

2577
02:26:49,860 --> 02:26:52,860
But he really had the grit and determination and stayed with it all the way.

2578
02:26:52,860 --> 02:26:57,860
It was a ballgame which Spahn had to scramble because the ball wasn't going exactly where he wanted it to

2579
02:26:57,860 --> 02:27:02,860
but he turned in still even without his good control and other fine pitching performance.

2580
02:27:02,860 --> 02:27:06,860
Spahn had walked only three minutes and 41 innings prior to tonight.

2581
02:27:06,860 --> 02:27:24,860
But in tonight's ballgame he walked five and eight innings.

2582
02:27:24,860 --> 02:27:27,860
Kenny Rybant is the new pitcher.

2583
02:27:27,860 --> 02:27:32,860
There on the last of the seventh inning in Philadelphia the Reds lead the Phillies 3-1

2584
02:27:32,860 --> 02:27:35,860
in the duel between John Saturas and Chris Short.

2585
02:27:35,860 --> 02:27:39,860
Pittsburgh leading Milwaukee 3-2 as they go to the seventh inning.

2586
02:27:39,860 --> 02:27:42,860
McBean has relieved Cardwell. Blasting game for Milwaukee.

2587
02:27:42,860 --> 02:27:44,860
Houston plays at Los Angeles.

2588
02:27:44,860 --> 02:27:47,860
McKensar at San Francisco.

2589
02:27:47,860 --> 02:27:53,860
There on the last of the eighth inning at Fenway Park the Yankees lead the Red Sox 5-3 behind Staddlemire.

2590
02:27:53,860 --> 02:28:02,860
Phil Gagliano leading off as we go to the ninth inning and Rybant's first pitch is over strike one.

2591
02:28:02,860 --> 02:28:07,860
Kenny has won one and lost one and has been very impressive as a late inning man.

2592
02:28:07,860 --> 02:28:10,860
Low outside, one ball, one strike.

2593
02:28:10,860 --> 02:28:18,860
He saved a victory for the Mets and Jack Fisher in the opener of the Milwaukee series.

2594
02:28:18,860 --> 02:28:28,860
And he turned in a solid performance to get credit for an official save and a victory at San Francisco.

2595
02:28:28,860 --> 02:28:34,860
Gagliano had one of the big hits for the Cardinals in the seventh inning.

2596
02:28:34,860 --> 02:28:38,860
It's over for a call strike, one ball and two strikes.

2597
02:28:38,860 --> 02:28:44,860
Washington leads Detroit 5-0 after five and a half behind Frank Kreitzer.

2598
02:28:44,860 --> 02:28:51,860
In second and second two, Baltimore 1, as they go to the ninth in Baltimore, Bell has relieved Terry.

2599
02:28:51,860 --> 02:28:53,860
Swing and a miss, he struck him out.

2600
02:28:53,860 --> 02:29:08,860
Then he arrived at fans, Phil Gagliano.

2601
02:29:08,860 --> 02:29:11,860
One out and nobody on and that brings up Lou Brock.

2602
02:29:11,860 --> 02:29:17,860
Brock's third home run of the year, a line drive to deep right center with a man on was a big blow for St. Louis in the seventh inning.

2603
02:29:17,860 --> 02:29:19,860
He had tied the game 3-3.

2604
02:29:19,860 --> 02:29:23,860
Just inside, one ball, no strikes.

2605
02:29:23,860 --> 02:29:29,860
The Cardinals went out in front for the first time in the ball game of the eighth inning when Dick Brode tripled to ranch field with one man out.

2606
02:29:29,860 --> 02:29:36,860
He later came in to score on a ground ball, hit the second by Tim McCarver.

2607
02:29:36,860 --> 02:29:52,860
Ball two outside and low, 2-0.

2608
02:29:52,860 --> 02:29:57,860
Now right back into his windup, down comes the special grounder, hit hard down to first grab by Hickman.

2609
02:29:57,860 --> 02:30:00,860
He takes it himself.

2610
02:30:00,860 --> 02:30:07,860
Ball hits sharply but right at Jim Hickman, Jim grabbed it on a big hop, stepped on the bag, two men down.

2611
02:30:07,860 --> 02:30:14,860
Well Casey and his coaches and the executive branch will all have to get together after tonight's ball game.

2612
02:30:14,860 --> 02:30:19,860
Revise their thinking as a result of a costly injury to Ron Hunt.

2613
02:30:19,860 --> 02:30:27,860
Ron and a collision with Gagliano suffered a shoulder separation and will be operated on tomorrow.

2614
02:30:27,860 --> 02:30:32,860
Right end for a call strike to Kurt Flug.

2615
02:30:32,860 --> 02:30:35,860
Midnight tonight is the cut down for all the major league ball clubs.

2616
02:30:35,860 --> 02:30:40,860
They have to be down to 25.

2617
02:30:40,860 --> 02:30:44,860
Low and outside, one ball, one strike.

2618
02:30:44,860 --> 02:30:47,860
Ron will undoubtedly have to go on the disabled list.

2619
02:30:47,860 --> 02:30:54,860
When a player goes on he must remain for 30 days but Ron must undergo surgery so it's safe to say he'll be out at least 30 days.

2620
02:30:54,860 --> 02:31:09,860
We hope it won't be too much more than that but an injury like that, probably a couple of months.

2621
02:31:09,860 --> 02:31:11,860
One ball, one strike on Kurt Flug.

2622
02:31:11,860 --> 02:31:14,860
Kurt has one for three.

2623
02:31:14,860 --> 02:31:33,860
Rybance 1-1 delivery, under the knees, two balls and a strike.

2624
02:31:33,860 --> 02:31:35,860
Now Denny swings out of his windup.

2625
02:31:35,860 --> 02:31:36,860
The pitcher on the way is popped up.

2626
02:31:36,860 --> 02:31:39,860
He hit him off the fist with a real good pitch.

2627
02:31:39,860 --> 02:31:40,860
Under the ball is Danny Napoleon.

2628
02:31:40,860 --> 02:31:42,860
He has it, the side is out.

2629
02:31:42,860 --> 02:31:45,860
Danny coming in toward the mound to take the pop up.

2630
02:31:45,860 --> 02:31:46,860
And Denny Rybank gets to do it.

2631
02:31:46,860 --> 02:31:48,860
Birds one, two, three.

2632
02:31:48,860 --> 02:31:51,860
No runs, no hits, no errors and none left on.

2633
02:31:51,860 --> 02:31:52,860
We'll be going to the bottom of the match.

2634
02:31:52,860 --> 02:31:54,860
New York a run behind.

2635
02:31:54,860 --> 02:31:59,860
At the end of 8 1 1 2 it's the Cardinals four and the Mets three.

2636
02:31:59,860 --> 02:32:06,860
If you're wondering what kind of a song goes with Soprano and Salchichi, listen to this.

2637
02:32:06,860 --> 02:32:17,860
Come on, come on, come on.

2638
02:32:17,860 --> 02:32:22,860
Come facete mamma età is sure to be sung when Italian Americans get together.

2639
02:32:22,860 --> 02:32:25,860
And spicy pizza rustica will be served.

2640
02:32:25,860 --> 02:32:28,860
The inevitable result is a fiery thirst.

2641
02:32:28,860 --> 02:32:42,860
Come on, come on, come on.

2642
02:32:42,860 --> 02:32:45,860
This song brings on the beer, probably Reingold.

2643
02:32:45,860 --> 02:32:52,860
In New York City where there are more Italians than in Naples, more people drink Reingold extra dry than any other beer.

2644
02:32:52,860 --> 02:32:57,860
And Reingold is going great in New Jersey, New England and Pennsylvania too.

2645
02:32:57,860 --> 02:32:59,860
Why do Italian Americans like Reingold?

2646
02:32:59,860 --> 02:33:09,860
We don't know, but we must be doing something right.

2647
02:33:09,860 --> 02:33:15,860
Bottom half of the ninth inning the Mets will have Bobby Klaus, Charlie Smith, Johnny Lewis coming up against Bob Gibson.

2648
02:33:15,860 --> 02:33:17,860
The right hander winds pitches.

2649
02:33:17,860 --> 02:33:21,860
Check swing and it's outside. One ball and no strikes.

2650
02:33:21,860 --> 02:33:30,860
Good ball game for Bobby. He has a single and a double, two for four and an RBI.

2651
02:33:30,860 --> 02:33:33,860
Mets have three runs, eight hits off Gibson.

2652
02:33:33,860 --> 02:33:45,860
Fastball, a strike on the outside corner. One ball, one strike.

2653
02:33:45,860 --> 02:33:50,860
One-one delivery. Foul ball back into the screen. Now it's one and two.

2654
02:33:50,860 --> 02:33:53,860
Dow Maxville is now playing second. He relieves.

2655
02:33:53,860 --> 02:34:04,860
Phil Gagliano has a defensive move on the part of Red Shandies.

2656
02:34:04,860 --> 02:34:10,860
Pitching one and two. A line drive, a base hit to the left and the tying run is on with nobody out.

2657
02:34:10,860 --> 02:34:12,860
Bobby has his third hit of the ball game.

2658
02:34:12,860 --> 02:34:18,860
That'll bring up Charlie Smith and while we're waiting for Charlie, we'll pause for station identification.

2659
02:34:18,860 --> 02:34:22,860
This is the New York Mets baseball network.

2660
02:34:22,860 --> 02:34:34,860
And this is your voice of the Mets in the Northeast, 8-10 on your dial, WGY, the General Electric Station.

2661
02:34:34,860 --> 02:34:41,860
Bob Murphy with Lindsey Nelson and Ralph Kiner. The Mets have the tying run on. Nobody out. Charlie Smith is up.

2662
02:34:41,860 --> 02:34:44,860
Boy, you're in close looking for the bun. Now the pitch.

2663
02:34:44,860 --> 02:34:48,860
Back toward the mound. Gibson up with it and the play goes to first base in time.

2664
02:34:48,860 --> 02:34:52,860
He started to go to second and at the last moment he held his arm up in midair.

2665
02:34:52,860 --> 02:34:58,860
He was almost turning it loose and then decided to go to first base and not take the chance.

2666
02:34:58,860 --> 02:35:06,860
Now the Mets will have Johnny Lewis and Joe Christopher to try and get that tying run home.

2667
02:35:06,860 --> 02:35:13,860
Fun play going from Gibson to Maxwell who covered it first.

2668
02:35:13,860 --> 02:35:24,860
Johnny Lewis has one hit a single in three times at that astronaut walk.

2669
02:35:24,860 --> 02:35:27,860
Now Gibson slowing the pace down a little bit for the first time.

2670
02:35:27,860 --> 02:35:34,860
Comes to the set position, delivers a high foul fly hit down the right field and there'll be no play.

2671
02:35:34,860 --> 02:35:50,860
Dan Hefner on the coaching lands at first thought that Gibson had balked on the play.

2672
02:35:50,860 --> 02:35:54,860
Now we wait for a moment as Billy Cowan hustles out in the bullpen to help out.

2673
02:35:54,860 --> 02:36:03,860
Billy has already been used in the ballgame. He came in as a fence runner.

2674
02:36:03,860 --> 02:36:07,860
Here's Taylor and Yogi Barrow all that remains of the bench for the New York Mets.

2675
02:36:07,860 --> 02:36:14,860
Here's the pitch. Outside one ball one strike and the hawk is coming in now.

2676
02:36:14,860 --> 02:36:23,860
Billy Cowan went out to take over his work in the bullpen and the hawk is coming in.

2677
02:36:23,860 --> 02:36:34,860
Benny Rybant has painful spot in the batting order. A ground ball hit toward the middle.

2678
02:36:34,860 --> 02:36:45,860
Runners on first and third.

2679
02:36:45,860 --> 02:36:49,860
A base hit for Johnny Lewis. He hit a ground ball right up the middle.

2680
02:36:49,860 --> 02:36:55,860
It wasn't stunned. It wasn't hit too hard and Groda after a long gallop to his left side came up with it.

2681
02:36:55,860 --> 02:37:00,860
He had to throw off Ballison's hand and get something on it. The throw was not nearly in time.

2682
02:37:00,860 --> 02:37:11,860
And the Mets have runners at first and third. Bobby Klaus with a go over to third and Joe Christopher coming up.

2683
02:37:11,860 --> 02:37:19,860
That was the 10th hit of the ballgame for New York and a big crowd standing.

2684
02:37:19,860 --> 02:37:24,860
Klaus the lead runner. He's the tying run at third. One man down.

2685
02:37:24,860 --> 02:37:29,860
Yenfield set for two. Inside ball one.

2686
02:37:29,860 --> 02:37:35,860
Ron Taylor a right hander. Steve Farrell's in a left hander warming for St. Louis.

2687
02:37:35,860 --> 02:37:43,860
They're getting their bullpen ready now because Benny Rybant is due up next and Jim Besky is warming up.

2688
02:37:43,860 --> 02:37:52,860
Gibson in a set position delivers a swing and a miss on a breaking ball. One ball one strike on Joe Christopher.

2689
02:37:52,860 --> 02:37:57,860
One drill stacked right on top of another.

2690
02:37:57,860 --> 02:38:02,860
Runners at first and third. One man out. Cardinal family in field at double play depth.

2691
02:38:02,860 --> 02:38:07,860
Yenfield just about straight away. Now Gibson set the one one pitch.

2692
02:38:07,860 --> 02:38:10,860
A ground ball hit the shortstop. Joe Christopher the second one.

2693
02:38:10,860 --> 02:38:14,860
That's still the first. Double play. The ballgame is over.

2694
02:38:14,860 --> 02:38:21,860
Joe Christopher's ground ball to Dick Rode is turned into a game winning double play by veteran shortstop Dick Rode.

2695
02:38:21,860 --> 02:38:25,860
And the Cardinals win a thriller by a score of four to three.

2696
02:38:25,860 --> 02:38:31,860
Bob Gibson weathering the storm and going all the way to win his sixth ballgame without a loss.

2697
02:38:31,860 --> 02:38:36,860
In the ninth inning as the Mets threw a king sized scare into the World Championship Redbirds.

2698
02:38:36,860 --> 02:38:41,860
For New York no runs, two hits, no errors and one left on.

2699
02:38:41,860 --> 02:38:48,860
So the big crowd of nearly 25,000 almost limp now as they head toward the exits of Shea Stadium.

2700
02:38:48,860 --> 02:38:57,860
The Mets have just played their 12th ballgame decided by one run in only their 25th ballgame of the young baseball season.

2701
02:38:57,860 --> 02:39:07,860
This was a game in which the Mets went out in front by a score of one to nothing when they got the game's first run in the fifth inning.

2702
02:39:07,860 --> 02:39:12,860
When Roy McMillan got the second of his three hits, Warren Sponger the first of his two walks.

2703
02:39:12,860 --> 02:39:19,860
And Bobby Klaus double to right center field driving home the first run his base hit scoring Roy McMillan.

2704
02:39:19,860 --> 02:39:26,860
The Mets made it three to nothing in the sixth inning on base hits by Charlie Smith and Johnny Lewis.

2705
02:39:26,860 --> 02:39:35,860
A good sacrifice by Joe Christopher moved the runners up and Roy McMillan's double to right center field drove in both Charlie Smith and Johnny Lewis.

2706
02:39:35,860 --> 02:39:41,860
That made it three to nothing. The Cardinals came right back in the seventh inning to tie up the ballgame.

2707
02:39:41,860 --> 02:39:44,860
Mike Shannon double to left center leading off.

2708
02:39:44,860 --> 02:39:54,860
Phil Gagliano single to left scoring Mike Shannon and Lou Brock hit his third home run of the year a drive to right center scoring two runs to tie the game 3-3.

2709
02:39:54,860 --> 02:40:02,860
The Cardinals got the winning run in the eighth inning when Dick Grove tripled with a line drive that hit right on the line going down the right field line.

2710
02:40:02,860 --> 02:40:06,860
He came in to score on a slow hit ground ball on the right side of the diamond by Tim McCarver.

2711
02:40:06,860 --> 02:40:13,860
McCarver was thrown out. The ball was not hit sharp enough to give the Mets a chance to go for two and get out of the inning.

2712
02:40:13,860 --> 02:40:22,860
And so the Redbirds win a real thriller with Bob Gibson going all the way to win his sixth game of the year without a setback.

2713
02:40:22,860 --> 02:40:27,860
The losing pitcher, and he pitched well once again in a real thriller, Warren Spahn.

2714
02:40:27,860 --> 02:40:34,860
Spahn has been in one one run decision right after another. So Warren now has won two while losing three.

2715
02:40:34,860 --> 02:40:40,860
The line scorer, St. Louis, four runs, nine hits, no errors, they left eight.

2716
02:40:40,860 --> 02:40:47,860
For the New York Mets three runs, there were ten hits, no errors, and the Mets had nine left on.

2717
02:40:47,860 --> 02:40:55,860
Batting stars for the St. Louis Cardinals, Bill Gagliano singled in their first run, Lou Brockett a two run homer to Tyatt,

2718
02:40:55,860 --> 02:41:03,860
and McCarver's ground ball scored Dick Grove who had set it up with his line triple to right field with the winning run in the top of the eighth inning.

2719
02:41:03,860 --> 02:41:08,860
Tomorrow, game time two o'clock here at Shea Stadium for the Mets, Jack Fisher on the mound.

2720
02:41:08,860 --> 02:41:11,860
For the St. Louis Cardinals it will be Kurt Simmons.

2721
02:41:11,860 --> 02:41:18,860
For those of you who may have joined us late, this could be and has been a very costly victory for the New York Mets.

2722
02:41:18,860 --> 02:41:27,860
For in the fifth inning of the ball game, with Bill Gagliano racing from first towards second and Ron Hunt racing in to field a ground ball hit by Lou Brockett,

2723
02:41:27,860 --> 02:41:34,860
Gagliano and Hunt collided and Ron suffered a separation of the left shoulder, will undergo surgery tomorrow.

2724
02:41:34,860 --> 02:41:41,860
That means that Ron will undoubtedly and unfortunately be out of the lineup probably for about two months.

2725
02:41:41,860 --> 02:41:47,860
It also means the Mets must revise their thinking insofar as reducing their squad to 25 men,

2726
02:41:47,860 --> 02:41:51,860
which is required of all major league ball clubs by midnight tonight.

2727
02:41:51,860 --> 02:41:58,860
So that's the story on the ball game, the final score once again, the St. Louis Cardinals four and the New York Mets three.

2728
02:41:58,860 --> 02:42:18,860
Music
