The San Francisco Giants faced the Montreal Expos at Jerry Park in Montreal for a Wednesday night game on May 10th, 1972.
The Giants were having a terrible start in 1972. They entered this game with a 7-16 record under manager Charlie Fox, who led the Giants to the NLCS in 1971, which was his first year as skipper.
Montreal wasn't expected to do much in 1972. After three straight losing seasons to kick off their franchise history, Gene Mock still had little to work with, but they were able to acquire some young talent when they traded Rusty Staub for Tim Foley, Ken Singleton, and Mike Jorgensen the day before the season started.
This audio recording is from the San Francisco Radio broadcast featuring announcers Lon Simmons and Bill Thompson.

At home plate, manager Charlie Fox brings the Giants starting lineup to the umpires and manager Gene Mott of the Montreal Expos brings his lineup to home plate.
Willie Mattis is not here tonight with the Giants. He headed for New York. President Laura Stone of the Giants and Chairman of the Board of the New York, Matt Don Grant.
From all the meetings, he wanted Willie there to talk things over about the possibilities of a trade or of Willie going to New York.
And exactly they meant to want to know exactly what they can expect from Willie, whether he wants to play in New York, whether he will play in New York and how much he will play.
And I guess based upon that conversation tonight will depend on what the Mets are willing to give the Giants foremades if a deal is made.
But anyway, they're scheduled to talk tonight. Mr. Stone of Mr. Grant and Mr. Maze in New York will be talking to you tonight about the starting lineup when we return in just one minute.

And when you run out, stop in along the Chevron way for more 10 packs of happy day lunch bags. Your kids will get more than a lunch box.
The Empire's at home play. Doug Harvey will be behind the plate. Bob Engel is first. Augie Donatelli is second.
Stan Landis is third. The starting lineup for tonight's game for the Giants, Chris Fier leads off in short steps.
Tito Gwant is batting number two and playing second base. Bobby Poms is right field hitting number three.
Dave Kingman is batting fourth playing first base. Ken Henderson in center field hitting number five.
Alan Gallagher at third base hitting number six. Gary Maddux in left field batting seventh.
Dave Rader doing the catching hitting eighth. Sam McDowell with four wins and no loss doing the pitching and batting ninth.
For the Expo, Ron Hunt is second base leading off. Mike Jorgensen at first base batting second.
Clyde Mayshore in right field batting third. Bob Bailey at the third base hitting fourth. Ken Singleton in left field batting number five.
Ron Woods in center field hitting sixth. Tim Foley in short top hitting seventh.
John Cabell is doing the catching and Bill Stolten with three and two records doing the pitching for the Expos.
Here are the United States and Canadian national team.
I'll take it as is.
And let's give it up for the Expo. Our Expo's make a video.
Montreal Expo's. Take over here. It's not as, well, what I was going to say is, well I'll tell you this, that it's not as cold as the ones last time.
It is. Uh-huh. Here we go. It's nice.
We are having a change in the Montreal lineup today.
Bacabella and Foley change Bacabella. It's, well, Bobby Wine has taken over shortstop for Foley. Wine will play shortstop and bat eight.
And Bacabella will bat seven. And do the catching.
No reason announced for as of yet why Foley is not starting. Other than one fact is something like 0 for 22 at the plate.
Bobby Wine, the experienced man at shortstop, has been used as a late inning defensive man at third base.
And almost coach on the ball, helping out the younger infielders.
And Gene Wong mentioned when he was talking about great shortstops at our pregame show, he mentioned Bobby Wine.
Ordinarily you probably would not put Wine's name in along with Marty Marion.
That's a name that pops to mind when you think about great shortstops. But Gene Wong included Wine side by side with Marion as far as being a great fielding shortstop.

The Giants against Bill Stoneman, a hard throwing right-hander. A fellow who has certainly become one of the fine right-handers in baseball.
Stoneman giving the expo along with Franco and McAnally and Torres a fine and starting pitching set.
Stoneman out here tonight to see what he can do about prolonging the Giants' loss spring here in Montreal.
Six in succession last year, lost last night. Stoneman, two and seven in a lifetime against the Giants.
Making his second start of the year again. And he pitches to Chris Byer who checks and fouls a pitch back strike one.
Stoneman was the starter against the end of the game that Sam McDowell pitched.
He worked three and two thirds inning, gave him nine hits, six runs. The Giants won 13-2.
Pitch to Spire, fouled away. Stoneman was spiked at first base by McDowell and close play at first base.
It was not intentional of course, but it was one that was close to first base when Stoneman was spiked and McDowell twisted his ankle.
Spire leading off with a Giants from the top of the berth and the pitch to Chris is way outside.
Comes back to the screen, four ball one and two. We mentioned about the weather.
If you compared tonight to last night it would be like comparing Palm Springs to normal after.
It is a flood out here. The deep curve ball dribble foul up into the bat.
Stoneman hung a curve ball, a slow curve out over the plate and Spire was way unfouled off the end of the bat.
Oddity here, it is going to be difficult to tell exactly how the wind will affect baseball because the wind appears.
The flags in center field are blowing towards right. The flags on the bleachers to our left are blowing towards left.
So the wind changes direction somewhere between center field and left field.
So fastball line drive, face hit right field over to field at his Mayshore and he throws in the second.
Boy this is tough on outfielders and infielders alike here. The grass is very spotty.
And Luffy is going to take the tricky hop at Mayshore and go to one knee to field that ball and then it almost pops over his head.
Spire opens things with a single and the Giants have Tito Quintes as the batter. Spire was batting 250 and Quintes hitting 265.
With Chris leading at first. Tito turns the bat and lays it back towards the mound.
Stoneman will have to go to first. He does with uncovering and Quintes is retired for the outs to sacrifice working.
Manager Charlie Fox immediately shows that he has great confidence in the family foul by playing for one run of the first inning.
Fans stop in at any Schermer dealer or stand in line station along the Schermer way and pick up your free Giants pocket schedule.
Keep track of who and where the Giants play next.
Zacher 5420 and Bobby Baum hitting 304 with 14 RBI.
Spire faces the right hander. Spire moves to second on the track to fight the infield back up.
The outfield deeps and about straight away against Fox.
Ervold swung on and missed strike one.
Dave Kingman on deck. We're in the top of the first. A nothing-nothing ballgame but Spire let off with a single with sacrifice to second by 20.
Stretched by Stoneman and the pitch to Bond. Popped up into right field. Mayshore drifting under this one near the line. He makes the catch.
Spire's tag just goes and Mayshore throws the ball about 30 feet up the third baseline.
Away from third but Spire had no chance to move up. Bond flies after right. So it'll be up to Kingman now, two men are down.
The Giants have not been hitting until the late inning and that is an indication of a couple of things in the two games which they hit Carlson and last night's Torres.
When they started hitting they were behind by some six or seven runs in each game.
Now the pitcher might either have been tiring or he might have been relaxing a bit.
So the Giants' late inning hitting is quite as good as it has sounded in those two bulges.
Now they're going to have to try to get some hitting early. They got a lead off single by Spire.
It's up to Kingman now to see if he can bring him around. Curve on foul-back's hook out.
Right, backed it up. Gonna have that one. Not in my hands but right between the eyes.
And there's Brandon Willett. Don't be happy it wasn't that close.
One count to Kingman with two down and Spire at second.
Sillman takes the stretch, looks at second but hits it today.
Grounded to third base weakly. Bailey is up with a throw to first and the Giants are retired.
Five. No runs on a hit, no errors and a runner left arm.
Giants might be able to use a big ball for six or seven. Oh, they didn't really hit against that hard.
Oh, it's the end of a half inning. The school is a Giants nothing and Montreal are coming to bat.
Imagine a room 4,000 feet long, 625 feet wide and 300 feet high. It's part of a house 25 miles long.
The main inhabitants are bats and snow white crickets. It's the big room at Carlsbad Caverns, New Mexico.
Quite a sight. And Chevrolet is building a better way for the station wagon family to get there.
Our own versions of the big room. There are Chevrolet and Chevelle wagons that seat eight people.
A Suburban that holds nine and a Sport Van that will carry twelve. And even a little wagon for little families, Vega, Camback.
Why do we have the largest selections and wagons of anybody? Because if you're a station wagon family,
Chevrolet wants your next one to be the best you ever own. To take you to places like Carlsbad Caverns.
Chevrolet, building a better way.
Sam Mcdowell out to do the pitching.
For the child with Maddoxon left, Henderson at center, Bob at right.
Gallagher at third, Byron short, one at the second.
Kingman at first.
The Raider doing the catching.
And Sam Mcdowell doing the pitching.
We talked some time ago, a couple of years ago, about the price of bananas.
Room service, one couple of deltas. And a couple of bucks of bananas then, because the price was a little steep.
And room service, well, I don't expect anybody to send me any ice cream through the mail, but I ordered ice cream and room service last night when I got back from...
I ordered two scoops of ice cream with a little chocolate syrup.
I got one scoop of ice cream and chocolate syrup. Luckily they only sent one. Here's Ron Hunt, takes outside for a ball.
And the one that they sent, I couldn't afford it too, because one scoop of ice cream and chocolate syrup cost me $2.66.
Ron Hunt takes outside for a ball too, from Mcdowell, a fun ball.
Hunt is batting 107.
Two-o-pitch, doing the look out, Ron, on his hip benefit.
Not unusual. Hunt is struck by a delivery from Sam Mcdowell.
Goes to first base, and the Egg Boats have their lead off on their own.
Mike Jorgensen, the left hand batter, moving up into the number two position, and I think 234.
The Giants have an excellent weather, and their deal with a Mets should have gotten them to the real fine ball player.
And Jorgensen, it's sort of difficult to figure out why Jorgensen wasn't playing more with the Mets.
He turns to Bucks, takes a strike, going one each club, looking to move the leadoff runner.
Get their leadoff batter on, moving over to second, leaving the job up to the next few hitters to try to bring them across.
The Giants weren't able to do it, and now manager Gene Wong at Jorgensen's square.
Depart on that first one, that's a strike call.
Murray Doby, the first base coach, Jimmy Bragan coaching at third.
For Montreal, the complete first offense to Jorgensen, he takes inside for a ball.
The Giants are in third to sacrifice again. Kingman and Gallagher charging down the line.
Three finals are in the Cubs beat Cincinnati, 4-2 to their path, as no one was elusive.
And the American would have given it to Gary when he'd missed the ball.
James Sleetman beat Kansas City, 7-2.
And White Sox beat Detroit, 7-9.
One-one count.
On the left hand batting Jorgensen, turns the buck, whips it back to McDowell.
He'll have a play at second. He throws just in time at second base to get on.
McDowell had a play at second base, and he took just a little bit too much time to wind up to throw to second.
But he put enough steam on it that they're amazing.
And that's Jorgensen out on the fourth bat on the hunt.
The one man is down at Jorgensen, who failed on the sacrifice.
The temp is over at first base. The fly at Mayshore will be the batter.
Mayshore hitting 292. A right hand batter is flying right field.
Manager Gene Wacht doing some platooning tonight with Woods in the center field and Mayshore in right.
Jorgensen with his lead at first. The pitch to Mayshore curve is going on a mid-strike one.
One down, one on. Nothing, nothing on the bottom of the first inning.
Rutter leads at first. That's Jorgensen. McDowell has his hands on his knees to get the sign.
Now comes to the play. Flash ball, pump foul out of play. And it's 0-1-2.
Remember when you were a kid and you'd get an ice cream cone?
You always tried to finish last so you'd take it. And that's how I was with that ice cream last time.
And $2.66 for a scoop of ice cream.
Took the entire late movie to finish that one scoop of ice cream.
It had to be great at that size, though.
Nothing in two counts. The 0-2 pitch. Look how it up. Flash ball up over Mayshore's head and it's 1-2.
Rutter at first with one out. We're at the bottom of the first.
That's a beautiful evening here, especially compared to last night.
The 1-2 delivery. The runner goes, the fouls, drive down the right field line out of play into the stands.
The ball hit the ball pretty hard down the right field line, but it was well out of play back into the lower seat.
He comes back, no play, for the 1-2 count. 340 down the line.
368 to power alley, 420 to center field.
The low barrier is about five feet surrounding the outfield.
There are bleacher seats from the left field corner over to center field.
Down in right field curve ball, grass ball to second base. 26 on second throws the first easy double play.
And the side is retired. No runs. No hits, no errors. Then no one left on.
And at the end of an inning, the score, the Giants nothing and Montreal nothing.
This is Bank of America Spotlight on sports. We're outside the stadium talking to Willard Hoseau, a sportsman.
Willard?
Hiya Bill.
Willard, you got your new camper loan from Bank of America, is that right?
That's correct Bill. First thing we did was drive to Lake Havasu. We're upon the way my rubber wraps fell off.
We understand you chose Bank of America for your camper loan because of the minimum of red tape.
That is correct.
My rubber wraps fell off somewhere near Barstow Bill.
Did you say the loan rate was very favorable and simple to arrange?
Bill, I'd say so. Now if anyone finds my rubber wraps, I'd appreciate hitting them back. It's red with Berber written on it.
Well then you'd recommend Bank of America for any kind of recreational vehicle loan.
You're correct, but no. Bill, be sure you tie anything loose down on your camper. I could have used that advice myself.
Thanks, Will. Bank of America recreational vehicle loans. A minimum of red tape and paperwork. Ask at any branch.
Bill Stoneman loosening up to bits the second inning.
I might have bragged a little bit too soon about how nice and pleasantly warm it was. The sun has gone down now and it's starting to cool off a bit.
And I don't think she's getting told as I did last night.
Anderson, Gallagher, and Maddux. The two of them in inning number two.
Kenny and Switzbader batting left handed.
Hitting two oh five. The Giants are the team batting two twenty eight.
Stoneman winds with a pitch to Henderson.
Fastball low and inside for a ball. Doug Harvey's the home plate umpire.
Bob Engel is first. Augie Donatelli is second. Dan Landis is third.
Henderson waits on the one oh pitch.
One oh delivery.
Breaking pitch inside for ball two. Two and oh.
Hopfield is back stepping around to the right. Two oh pitch. Follow the way to the left. And it's two and one.
Giants just not putting anything together. They put something together last night. Five errors.
But that's about the only thing they've been able to put together for a while.
Having that difficultly is just getting things turned loose here.
Keep waiting for it to happen. A swing and a miss and then it's two and two.
And two two delivery on the way. Curveball fouled and it's held on by Bacabella.
And Henderson is out on strike.
Low curveball on the inside. Stonewood appears to be going. A slow, sweeping curveball.
Giants should be able to take up. Stonewood has not done it.
And Allen Gallagher will be the next man to challenge. Gallagher hitting two forty-three.
Stonewood's pitch down. Curve is outside for a ball. One and oh.
He's not throwing a sharp breaking curveball. He hasn't thrown one yet.
The big roundhouse breaking pitch.
It's one oh delivery. Class ball line foul will be on the right field line.
And the count is a ball on the side.
And they have exposed.
Press book. It's William Hambley, Stoneham.
And his nickname is Bill Stoney and Stone.
And one pitch. Low curveball. It's two and one.
It's not a very big pitch. A pitch of five ten hundred sixty-eight pounds.
It was picked up by the Expos from the Chicago Cubs in the expansion set.
His two went off, bringing to Gallagher. Low breaking pitch for three and one.
And he is behind on the Giants third base. Three balls and a strike with one out.
That base is empty.
Now Bill gives Gallagher the left center field area with Woods the center pillar over under right center.
Swing and a miss with a fastball. Three and two.
Stonewood blew that fastball right by Gallagher.
And it's a full count. Gallagher now questioning Doug Harvey.
Was that pitch with a strike or not? Was that three-fourth?
Full count to it.
Right hander Stonewood. Three-two pitch. Curveball. Strike. Three-fourth.
Gary Maddux will be the batter now.
Fast quick handers on any kind of recreational vehicle. See your nearest Bank of America.
Gary Maddux. Gary Maddux hitting one ninety-five.
Rookie left fielder facing Stonewood with two down. Stonewood has struck out the first two.
That hander's pitch. Curveball followed away. Strike one.
Nothing in one count to Maddux.
Gary looking for his first major league home run. He was hitting them like they were going out of style with Phoenix.
Fastball brushes him back for a ball. One and one.
Asking quite a bit of a young fellow to make the jump. You just have to be patient.
There's a lot to learn when you make that final step up into the major league.
The one-one pitch to it. Grounds all the short stops.
Gooped up by Bobby Wine. Throwing to first high and Maddux is safe at first leg.
Wine had not seen Maddux run, I don't believe, that much.
And he took his time on that throw and then when he saw Maddux flying down the line he threw rather quickly.
Then hurried his throw through high and Maddux was across the bag.
It'll be an error on the first stop. Bobby Wine.
Two men down. And a Raider.
The Giants catcher at the batter. The 229 batter.
The Giants with their power certainly have speed if the power ever returns.
It's been short circuited a bit but with Maddux and Henderson, Fogg, Kingman, and one is they've got great speed on this long rope.
Maddux with his lead at first. Pitch to Raider. Four-noted miss. A fastball about chin high that he didn't get and it's all in one.
Two down. Maddux at first base. The result of the throwing error by Bobby Wine.
Stalman working from a stretch. Maddux leads at first. Fastball filed away. Strike two.
When a team gets in a swamp it seems as though everyone changes their batting style and becomes afraid to really take a cut at the ball.
Giants now are protective hitters just trying not to strike out.
Stretch for the O2 delivery. Maddux goes. Curve ball swung on a miss and Raider is out on the strike.
No runs. No hits. An error and a runner left on. And as we go to the bottom of the second the score, nothing nothing.
The influence once again to the little four. Maddux, Stalman, let's say makes it number three.
Bob Bailey will lead off for the Expos against Sam McDowell in inning number two.
Right hand batting third baseman.
Bailey with a 2-30 batting average. McDowell hits on the first inning. A double play.
And he pitches up the minimum number of batters. Foul ball out of play. Psycho.
On a special day coming up at Candlestick Park we'd like to mention that there are group night days at Candlestick and you can come to the group sales department at Candlestick Park.
Coming four six seven eight thousand. Fastball is high. One on one. In case you'd like to get a group together in a company or a club or something that wants to come out in a group and enjoy Candlestick Park and the Giants, just call four six seven eight thousand. That's for group sales.
I'll be happy to make the arrangements for you. Pitchers inside. There are special nights coming up.
Coming up, Palau time. Herald. Friday night, May 19th. Also that May 19th is independent order of course through Candlestick Park. 2-1 pitch. Foul all the way to the right. And it's 2-2.
2-2 count to Bailey. Leading off the second for Montreal. A nothing nothing ballgame. Mcdowell's 2-2 pitch. Torn on his foul back and it stays a 2-2. Saturday, May 20th is a San Jose Mercury News Day.
Giants against the Braves at Candlestick Park. At Palau Time. Torn on his hand San Jose Mercury News Day. There are special coupons running in those newspapers.
You can take advantage of a special ticket offer. And don't forget May 20th is Saturday. The 12-15 starts foul ball out of play to the right.
Outstays a 2-2. May 21st of course is helmet day. With all youngsters 14 and under receiving three souvenir giant batting helmets when they enter the ballpark on Sunday, May 21st.
And it's a doubleheader against the Braves and it's also Dynewba Day. 2-2 pitch. Down goes Bailey. A back ball under his chin and it's a full count of 3-2.
Bailey single-legged in the woods against Mcdowell in the second inning.
Zab ends up in the windup. The left-hander delivers 3-2. A fly ball. Get high in the air to short center. If Henderson can see it, it's an easy chance he does.
And makes the catch for the out. Toilet.
Here in Andre all. And the little dip. Pick up the ball. Going to hit that high. We're going to buy a new car. Check off a auto-finance plan.
Chances are you can save a pretty good dollar on finance charges. With one out, Ken Singleton.
Comes to the plate. Hitting 2-69.
Next ball on. 1-0 pitch to him. Let up. One on and it's a ball on the strike.
Bring a little switch batter batting right-handed.
And the right-hand batter hitting 2-86. Curve is low. Four ball two. Hitting 2-86. The droid and 2-56 is a galchet.
Good time for a ball under three and one. Three balls and a strike, just think of it.
He took a look at Sir Dead Coach Jimmy Bregman to see if he should be swinging his 3-1 delivery.
McDowell peels off the 3-1 pitch. A strike call. And with jump in the strike zone. It's a letter and it's a full count of three and two.
Singleton and McDowell go to the end of the strike here. In the bottom of the second with one out, nobody on. A nothing-nothing ball.
A three-two pitch. All four. He won't be there. McDowell sends Singleton to first, the second face runner against Sands.
And Ron Woods, a Montreal center fielder, comes up with a 2-81 batting average. Raider goes out to talk to McDowell.
Saturday, June 3rd is Palo Alto time. The World Champion Pittsburgh Tyrus will be in town that day.
That's a Saturday. And that is also a 12-15 start. Don't forget the May 20th, June 3rd is 12-15 start rather than the regular 1 o'clock start.
McDowell comes to the plate, slow to Woods for a ball one-and-oh. Runner at first with one out.
Singleton the base runner at first base from Montreal. One hit in the game, spires leadoff Singleton.
Singleton gets the short lead as first McDowell comes to play to high foul drive out of play to the right end of the one-and-one.
Fall on the strike count straight away outfield against Woods who takes a long look now at the third base coach.
Look at first base by McDowell and the stretch, his delivery. Line foul into the scene to the right again. He had that one five and he fouled it off to the right.
So McDowell goes out in front one and two.
Come on, Ron Bryant for the Giants against Steve Wrenko of the Expo.
Tonight at fan McDowell, dueling Bill Stoneman. We're nothing, nothing in the bottom of the second.
Look over at first by McDowell. He's got Singleton picked off. Throws to first, Kingman throws to 20th to second. Now the throw back to Kingman.
He'll have to chase him towards fire. He does. Throws his fire, fire tags him out.
So that one went from one to three to four to three to six. Well, they out on Singleton.
They're listing at his four, three, six. So with two men down, Ron Woods has a one, two count.
Third ball hits back to McDowell who put his legs together and his glove down and knocked that ball down and throws the first to get him.
That ball was going straight through the middle, but McDowell got his legs together and his glove in place to stop it.
No runs, no hits, no errors. No one left.
Well, they made a change and changed it back to what we said. One to three to four to three to six. That was the scoring on the put out.
At the end of two innings, the score, the Giants nothing and Montreal nothing.
Take a look at the other scores in the American League. The White Sox got on Detroit seven to nothing and Bradley won his third.
He's lost one. Mealor was the loser.
Seven runs, ten hits and no errors. That's what I'd say, Bill.
Seven runs, ten hits and no errors for the White Sox. No runs, four hits and one error for Detroit.
Cleveland seven, ten and oh. Cleveland seven, ten and oh. Kansas City two, five and oh. Gaylord's Harry the winner.
Five wins and two losses. Headlands the loser, oh and three. Alex Johnson hit a three run homer for Cleveland.
Texas is Baltimore, nothing nothing after four. Roebert for Texas. McNally for Baltimore. New York and Minnesota is Kackage for New York and Harry for Minnesota.
In a national league, at the end of an inning, the Dodgers won in the mess of nothing downing for Los Angeles. Matlack for New York. San Diego leads Philadelphia two to nothing.
Going to the bottom of the third. Kirby for San Diego. Simon for Philadelphia.
Red on San Diego, red on third, taking over. San Diego detects the national league lead in the whole round. Atlanta leads Pittsburgh one to nothing at the end of an inning.
We're set to go to the third and here's Bill Combs. Sam McDowell leading off against Bill Combs and Sam three for twelve on the air.
Mcdowell takes the fastball outside for ball one. McDowell is in the back also will bunt for a bit and doing that in which Dolan was fighting in San Francisco.
Swing and a miss by McDowell, a one one count.
McDowell leading off the top of inning number three. Dias is having expose now, the installment of the play. McDowell tries to bunt and fouls it off take two.
Outfield deep against McDowell. Woods in the center, A short right, set deeper than Singleton on the left. Curveball misses. A two two count. Dias, Bitter, Sam McDowell.
Thrust that crisp fire on deck. Cato 20 is the second best one to follow. Doman into the windup. Switch to McDowell, curve, swung on it, miss strike three.
Curveball, McDowell way on the front. Thelman gets his fourth strike out. And crisp fire as the game's only hit a single right field in the first inning. A bit of time batter.
Right hander against right hander. The expose with a straightaway defense.
Breaking pitch is low ball one. Bailey playing even with the bag at third. Guarding against the bunch. Thelman comes to the plate one oh. Fastball a bit outside ball two. Now it's fireless. The third base goes to John McNamara.
Two and oh cut. A crisp fire. Thelman delivers two oh. The curve is a crawl strike and that's just above the knees. Thelman in on the count of two and one.
The two one pitch. Good. It's low ball three. Thelman now behind on spire three balls and one strike. On a three one count to Allen Gallagher in inning number two. Thelman went to the breaking pitch and got it over.
Now the three one pitch to spire. Breaking pitch bounded foul to the left. Thelman obviously with great confidence in that breaking ball. Again throws it on a three one count and again gets it over for a strike. Full count on spire. Three balls two strikes.
Thelman checking sides with John Bacabella. The day off hits the spire. Curve inside ball board. Spire draws the watch. Spire a base runner for the second time and Thelman gives up his first back home ball.
The second one is a strike. The first inning will be the Giants batter. Bailey starting in at third playing very close to the line. Only about three feet off the line and some twelve to fifteen feet in front of the bag.
Outfield shallow. Heading for one is the left field. Spire with a lead. Spire is running. He'll belt it in the right field base hit. Spire will try for third. May shore up with it. His throw will go to second as spire is in it.
When they hit the run play, Bwede singles sharply in the right field moving spire around to third. The Giants have runners in the corners with one out. Bobby Foss who flies to right first inning will be the batter.
Spire was breaking on the pitch and Ron Hunt took a step towards second base to go over to cover. That was all that Bwede's ball needed to go through in the right field. Although it might have gone through anyway.
He hit very sharply in the hole. Bwede's weight. Snowman's set. The pitch to Bobby. Swung on a miss. Breaking ball in the outside part of the plate. An 0-1 cast. Spire at third. One is at first. One out. Top of inning number three. Giants nothing. Exposed nothing.
Snowman sets it to Bwede. He don't want to pitch to Bwede. Good. One out of the miss. Right two. Bwede's out of the batter's box talking to himself.
Now gets back in. Snowman in front. 0-2. In field. Double play deep for the Exposed. Snowman ready. The runners lead from first and third. Bwede's glumming from first and someone steps off the rubber.
Bwede steps out from the batter's box. Wipes something away from his eyes. And Bwede back in. Snowman checking sides with Bacabella. Spire down the line at third. One is away from first.
Pitch to Bwede. Over to shortstop. Wyn up when it goes to second one. The door to first. A double up. Bobby Bwede on the side is retired.
Bobby Bwede grabs into a double play. Bobby Wyn to Ron Hunt. The bike's juggling for the Giants in the third. No runs on one hit. No Exposed errors. The runner left out. We go to the bottom of the third. The Giants nothing and the Exposed nothing.

Bottom of inning number three is the Giants. They have a great opportunity in the top of the inning goes down the well. For the Exposed, the tail end of the order catcher John Bacabella, trick stop Bobby Wine and pitcher Bill Coleman. Bacabella right hand of batter, season's average of 206. McDonnell is playing fastball bounce straight back to the screen strike one.
0-1 on John Bacabella. McDonnell decking sides with Rader. Giants defense well around the left, particularly the infield. Let up, follow back, strike two. Bacabella tries to check and has the ball follow up the end of the bat.
McDonnell in front of Bacabella, one-two. Big left hander, banks up, comes to the plate. This is Attspah with a fastball, ball one. A ball and two strikes on Bacabella. I'm glad Lime said it's warm here in front of McDonnell. Freeze the deck.
A one and two catch. Gallagher in deep at third. Let up, there's call, strike three. McDowell changing up on the curve ball, getting Bacabella on the call, third strike.
Number one for McDowell, the strikeout department. Bobby Wine at shortstop will be the batter. Wine batting for just the third time on the season.
Wine has been used mainly as a baiting defensive replacement at third base, starting the ballgame at a shortstop. McDowell's set, fastball, swung on and missed strike one.
McDowell working very quickly delivers. Curve ball misses someplace, ball one. A one-one catch. Wine feet wide apart.
The one-one pitch, slow curve is outside, ball two. McDowell drops behind him, wine, two balls and one strike. One out, base is empty, bottom of inning number three, the Giants nothing, the Expos nothing.
High pop-up on the right side of the infield. Buellenis crawling as he moves over Torch, first base. Kingman gets out of the way and Buellenis makes the catch.
25 feet off the line in fair territory.
With two outs and the base empty, the Expos, Bickel, and Stoneman will be the batter. People, product, and service. Three of the many reasons you'll want to top a standard six in Chevron dealers along the Chevron way.
Stoneman, oh, hits a nine just for the play. Right end of batter. Gallagher, shallow at dirt. Kingman moves in at first. Goudfield, shallow into the right, fastball, swung on it.
Foul tipped off, Raiders glove, strike one. Giants back off on the 16th, Tuesday night against Cincinnati, a twine-eyed doubleheader. McDowell's fit, fastball, low one-one count.
McDowell's fit to Solomon, off foul, back below us. Can't go through a ball on two strikes.
Cincinnati, and on the home stand, a better doubleheader, that twine-eyed doubleheader.
And on the Sunday, for the Braves, to end though.
What a curve in the call strike. Three in a side is retired. A delayed call by Doug Harvey. McDowell gets his second strike out with the Expos in the third. No runs, no hits. No diners, nobody left. Again, it's three full. Giants nothing, the Expos nothing.
There are people who used to scoff at the idea of an American-made small car designed in Detroit and built in the USA to compete with the highly successful imports. Detroit simply cannot provide a proper little car at a proper little price.
And that's that, they'd say. And some still say it. But their numbers have dwindled considerably since the debut and ultimate success of cars like Chevrolet's Vega. Not only has Vega proven itself a highly respectable economy car in anybody's league, it's also winning friends for its handling, performance, looks, comfort, and ride.
Vega, the little car that does everything well. So well, in fact, that in 1971, its first full year on the market, Vega emerged as the most popular little car made in America.
Chevrolet, building a better way to see the USA.
Number four for the Giants, the four, five, and six spots in the batting order. First baseman Dave Kingman, center fielder Ken Henderson, and third baseman Alan Gallagher.
Kingman, 0 for 1, grounded to third in the first inning.
Right hander batter against the Expos right hander Goldstoneman.
The time from back of the line. Infield, well around to the left. The outfield the same way and the outfield really backed up.
Dervis, funded towards third. Bailey charging, bare handed. Throws and gets it.
Kingman running the ball to third base on Bob Bailey, the designer of the world's greatest car. Taking a bare hand pick up, a flip throw, and just getting Kingman at first base.
Out number one, Ken Henderson, who struck out at any number two, the Giants batter.
Switch batter batting left handed.
Goldman fits, Derv misses, ball one. Bailey, 15 to 20 feet off the line, on the edge of the infield grass.
Goldman delivers, fast ball, grounded to the right side. Huster was left up with a Jorgensen hurries to get back to first and does in time for the out.
Henderson retired, Huster to Jorgensen, four to three, for out number two.
Allen Gallagher, who has balled out on the tracks for the second, I think it will be the Giants batter.
The pitchers are out of the match, but the Coward is jamming Henderson with the breaking pitches.
They finally get Kenny looking for it, they go high and away with fast balls, but that was a breaking pitch on the fifth. Kenny batters the second base.
Derv to Gallagher outside, ball one.
Gallagher, breaking ball misses, ball two. Two and nothing, after out, base is empty, top of the fourth. Giants nothing, X-Bowers nothing.
Goldman back to the plate, two-oh. High fly ball right field, Mayshore moves in a few steps, moves towards the line, makes the catch, the Giants retire.
For the Giants and the Four, no runs, no hits, no exposure. If nobody left out, we go to the bottom of the fourth, the Giants nothing and the X-Bowers nothing.
