00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:10,800
The Cincinnati Reds faced the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium for a Friday night

3
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:16,720
game on June 11, 1982. The Reds entered this game in the cellar of the NL West, something

4
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,460
they hadn't experienced in over a decade, having won the division in six of the past

5
00:00:20,460 --> 00:00:25,120
ten years and finished in second place in three others. They were managed by John McNamara,

6
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:30,320
who had taken over the team in 1979 after the firing of Sparky Anderson. Los Angeles

7
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,760
was the defending world champions and were managed by Tommy LaSorda in his sixth year

8
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:39,040
as skipper, but they were off to a slow start in 1982 with a 27-31 record coming into this

9
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:43,720
game. This audio recording is from the Los Angeles Radio broadcast featuring announcers

10
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:56,720
Vince Scully and Ross Porter.

11
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:19,240
The Dodgers having lost four straight and their home record, and of course you think

12
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:24,040
he's going to have some problems on the road, the Dodgers are six games under 500 on the

13
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:28,600
road. But the big shock is they're not doing well at home either. They're only two games

14
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:33,800
over 500 here at Dodger Stadium. So put it all together and they're struggling. The Dodgers

15
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:40,800
start tonight eight games behind Atlanta. There is Ron Oster, Oster batting right-handed.

16
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:46,640
And Royce out of his stretch, a look at second, comes to the plate of front. Out to get it

17
00:02:46,640 --> 00:02:51,240
is Sochette, picks it up, fires to Garvey in time as Say comes all the way down the line

18
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:58,240
to cover home plate. So Oster sacrifices, Milner going to third, and the battle will

19
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:05,880
be Davey Concepcion with a 12-game hitting streak. In fact, Concepcion during the streak

20
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:12,880
is hitting 360. So with one out, Concepcion coming out, hitting 306 for the year with

21
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:23,760
25 runs batted in. Davey has three scoring fly balls, and the Reds would settle for that

22
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:30,400
right now. The Dodger infield plays back, and Royce going after Concepcion. Jerry Reddy

23
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:34,880
delivers a high chopper over the mound. The run will score, bare-handed by Russell who

24
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:40,320
throws to Garvey for the out. Good play by Phil, but in comes Milner, and just like that,

25
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:48,080
the Reds have to drop on the Dodgers, one to nothing. So Concepcion picks up a run batted

26
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:55,120
in, Milner carries it over, and the battle will be Dan Dreeson. One of many things the

27
00:03:55,120 --> 00:04:03,480
Dodgers are not doing is coming from behind. That has been just one of many bleak moments

28
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:09,360
for them, and the Dodgers at home this year have not been able to pull one out in the

29
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:14,000
eighth or ninth inning. And here now, they've given up a run in the first inning, and with

30
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:19,840
two down, Dan Dreeson up, and he takes a curve ball and a dirt ball, one and oh. Dan Dreeson,

31
00:04:19,840 --> 00:04:25,320
who has picked up over a thousand hits in his career, batting 318, having a big year

32
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:29,880
with the bat. He punches one on the ground to say, Ron Gloves it, straightens up and

33
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:34,280
gets him in the run at home because of the double. And at the end of half an inning,

34
00:04:34,280 --> 00:04:39,840
Reds 1, Dodgers coming up. We'll get to baseball rundowns in a few moments. Let's talk more

35
00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:45,000
about this Holmes Cooney fight coming up. We had that preview a while ago from Las Vegas.

36
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,160
Larry Holmes, WBC heavyweight champ, says the fight is special.

37
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:55,560
One thing, this is a different type fight than it was when we won the title. This is

38
00:04:55,560 --> 00:05:02,560
a fight that my kids have to live with for the rest of their lives, for my brothers,

39
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,280
for my family. That's why this fight is so important to me. I'm fighting this fight

40
00:05:06,280 --> 00:05:11,400
for my family, for my people, for everybody who stands for what's right.

41
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,560
And Holmes was asked, what's your fight strategy?

42
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:21,560
No strategy. I'm a boxer. I'm 5 to 5. Left jab, left jab. 70, 80, punch it around. Count

43
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:28,560
it. You can't take it. Not that many. 70, 80, punch it around. Just take 70. You'll

44
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:35,560
be taking away a little away from me. 70 punches around. 50 on land. You can't take that.

45
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:43,560
The Reds and Dodgers pose at the current home stand with games tomorrow night and Sunday

46
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,560
afternoon. Tomorrow night it will be Bob Welch pitching for the Dodgers and Greg Harris

47
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:52,560
for the Reds. And Sunday afternoon, Bert Horton will go against Cincinnati's Bruce Bruny.

48
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,560
General emission seats on a guaranteed seat basis, available for both games at the Dodgers

49
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:01,560
and the Reds ticket office, 1750 Stadium Wave, and at all tickets on in mutual office.

50
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:12,560
Come out and be with us. The Dodgers and the Reds tomorrow night and Sunday afternoon.

51
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:17,560
The bottom of the first inning, the Reds have a run. We'll set them defensively with Frank

52
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:23,560
Pastore on the mound and Alex Trevino behind the plate. And an infield of Dan Griesen,

53
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:30,560
Ron Oster, David Concepcion, and Johnny Fench. In the outfield, Mike Bale is in left. The

54
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:37,560
counterfielder is Eddie Milner, and the right fielder is Paul Householder, and Steve Sacks

55
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:44,560
will start it off. Frank Pastore, who would just as soon forget last year, he was four

56
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:52,560
and nine after winning 13 the year before. The second half of last year, he won only

57
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:58,560
one game in 11 starts, so he'd just as soon wipe it out. The pitch to Steve Sacks is low

58
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:03,560
ball one, one and oh. John Lowe, the fine writer for the Valley News, who is our guest

59
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:08,560
on the pregame show tonight, points out an interesting thing about Sacks. The youngster

60
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:16,560
with 70 hits this year, he takes outside, hitting 299. He could be a rookie to get 200

61
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:23,560
hits, and that's only happened a couple of times. The last time, Richie Allen. Here's

62
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:32,560
a 2-0 pitch on the way, and Sacks takes inside, 4-3, 3-0. So Frank Pastore, leading 1-0, he

63
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:41,560
is from Alhambra and lives in Upland, 6'3, 205 pounders. Frank into the wind up, now

64
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:51,560
the 3-0 pitch on the way, high, 4-4. Sacks opens up with a walk, and of course, Steve

65
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:57,560
Sacks leading the Dodgers in a lot of things, in hits, runs, stolen bases, and he was tied

66
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:03,560
for fourth with walks, so Sacks has been very busy. He's at first, nobody out, and Kenny

67
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:10,560
Landrow the batter. Landrow, a month ago, was hitting 358. Now he's hitting 275, a victim

68
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:15,560
of whatever it is that chills him after a great start. It happened last year, and he's

69
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:21,560
in the throes of another slide. On deck, Dusty Baker. Kenny waiting, Pastore goes to first,

70
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:28,560
back in there is Steve Sacks. Frank Pastore, his middle name, Enrico. I'm sure his folks

71
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:35,560
were fans of Caruso. Frank, a high step, up around the breastbone, and said to Landrow

72
00:08:35,560 --> 00:08:39,560
over for a strike and a count on one. Both the Dodgers bring their hands together and

73
00:08:39,560 --> 00:08:46,560
come to a complete stop at the felt. Pastore does it somewhere around the breastbone. A

74
00:08:46,560 --> 00:08:51,560
little bit tough, too, to exactly see just when and where, he says. And he's off the

75
00:08:51,560 --> 00:08:57,560
rubber, and Sacks back off the back again. Now a throw, and Steve back in standing up.

76
00:08:57,560 --> 00:09:05,560
Sacks, among other things, leading the Dodgers in stolen bases. He's stolen 17 out of 22.

77
00:09:05,560 --> 00:09:15,560
There he goes. The pitch is a strike. The throw is on a bounce. Alex Trevino has not

78
00:09:15,560 --> 00:09:21,560
had the thrill of throwing many people out. One reason, of course, as they always say,

79
00:09:21,560 --> 00:09:28,560
you steal a base on the pitcher, as Sacks picks up number 18. In stolen bases for the

80
00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:34,560
Reds, the opposition is better than two to one, 44 stolen bases, while they have been

81
00:09:34,560 --> 00:09:42,560
able to nail only 20 runners. So Sacks at second, oh and two to count to Landrow, however,

82
00:09:42,560 --> 00:09:48,560
and Pastore out of a stretch. Another look at Steve, the pitch to Landrow way inside,

83
00:09:48,560 --> 00:09:53,560
ball one, one and two. Kenny, of course, would love to get a pitch he can handle in full

84
00:09:53,560 --> 00:09:58,560
to at least get Sacks over to third. Lee Lacey hit a home run in the ninth inning, and

85
00:09:58,560 --> 00:10:06,560
Pittsburgh beat Philadelphia one to nothing, hence the call of the over, Larry Christianson.

86
00:10:06,560 --> 00:10:13,560
One and two to count. Landrow waiting, Sacks at second, conception on Berg dogging him

87
00:10:13,560 --> 00:10:20,560
a little bit, and the one-two pitch is low in the dirt. Landrow, with only 13 runs batted

88
00:10:20,560 --> 00:10:30,560
in. So Kenny has had a struggle. Two balls, two strikes to count. Baker, Guerrero, and

89
00:10:30,560 --> 00:10:36,560
Garvey after that. The Dodgers trying to snap a four-game losing streak tonight. Joliroyte

90
00:10:36,560 --> 00:10:42,560
against Frank Pastore. Now the two-two pitch to Kenny Landrow. Pastore delivers, pulled

91
00:10:42,560 --> 00:10:47,560
on the ground to Grieson. He has to throw to Pastore coming over, and Sacks takes third.

92
00:10:47,560 --> 00:10:53,560
So Landrow does his job. He got his man over, and it's appreciated. The aficionado is a

93
00:10:53,560 --> 00:11:07,560
little bit out of the way. Now Dusty Baker. Dusty Baker hitting 298. He has nine home

94
00:11:07,560 --> 00:11:20,560
runs, 32 runs batted in. Baker has been hitting over 300 for quite a stretch. It's like for

95
00:11:20,560 --> 00:11:26,560
a month there, he was hitting about 331. And the pitch to him is taken high and outside.

96
00:11:26,560 --> 00:11:36,560
Dusty with 32 runs batted in. Guerrero leads the club with 38. So Steve Sacks at third,

97
00:11:36,560 --> 00:11:46,560
one ball and no strikes. And Pastore delivers low, ball two, 2-0. Landrow Guerrero, waiting

98
00:11:46,560 --> 00:11:51,560
his turn on deck. Tomorrow night, Bob Welch and Greg Harris, and then Sunday afternoon,

99
00:11:51,560 --> 00:12:00,560
Burt Hooten and Bruce Berengy. Pastore hasn't won since a month ago when he beat St. Louis

100
00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:05,560
3-1. For a 2-0 pitch, Baker fouls it away, off to the right upstairs in the count two

101
00:12:05,560 --> 00:12:23,560
and one. In his next four starts, Pastore lost three and he had one no decision. Now

102
00:12:23,560 --> 00:12:29,560
the 2-1 pitch on the way. Pastore delivers inside, ball three. The Pastore's have a

103
00:12:29,560 --> 00:12:35,560
youngster, a son, Frank, who was born almost a year ago while Pastore was pitching here

104
00:12:35,560 --> 00:12:39,560
at Dodger Stadium. You might remember that day. It was the 29th of May and of course

105
00:12:39,560 --> 00:12:45,560
he was out there pitching and greatly concerned about his wife, Gina. 3-1 pitch, off speed

106
00:12:45,560 --> 00:12:54,560
and hit foul, outside of third and down the line. Three and two. So Frank Pastore, who

107
00:12:54,560 --> 00:13:03,560
has been with Cincinnati since 1979. Prior to this year, he was a break even pitcher,

108
00:13:03,560 --> 00:13:10,560
23 and 23 and right now he's one under 500. Pastore, out of a stretch to improve his control

109
00:13:10,560 --> 00:13:15,560
and the pitch to Baker is lined to right and thinking for the hit, Frank has gone back

110
00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:30,560
to third and now it comes in to score so just like that it's tied up. So Baker nudged one

111
00:13:30,560 --> 00:13:34,560
in the right field for a face hit to get the Dodgers even and that will bring up Pedro

112
00:13:34,560 --> 00:13:41,560
Guerrero and of course Steve Sacks making more contributions. First he walked a whole second

113
00:13:41,560 --> 00:13:48,560
and eventually came home on the hit. For Sacks, he has now scored 36 runs so he really has

114
00:13:48,560 --> 00:13:58,560
been a marvelous offensive weapon for the Dodgers. Pedro Guerrero checking in, Baker draws a

115
00:13:58,560 --> 00:14:05,560
throw and gets back. Final score, the Cardinals polished off the New York Mets tonight, 7-3

116
00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:13,560
and Duhar beating Randy Jones so Joaquin is 6-4. The pitch to Guerrero on the outside

117
00:14:13,560 --> 00:14:22,560
corner for a strike, going one. Guerrero has been hitting although he has not been tearing

118
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:32,560
it up. He's hitting 13 of his last 15. Throw to first again Baker back to the back. Dusty

119
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:40,560
is 6 out of 10 in stolen bases. On deck, Steve Garvey. 1-1 tie here in the first inning and

120
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,560
Pastore delivers and what sounded like a cracked bat and the ball is hit foul in the lower

121
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,560
deck off to the right and Guerrero looking at it but everything is okay. I think he hit

122
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:56,560
it on the end of the bat and it had kind of a twang to it. 0-1-2 to Pedro Guerrero. 1-1

123
00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:02,560
tie. Milner doubled and came home later on as Concepcion grounded out and Baker singled

124
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:07,560
home sacks. Guerrero fouls it back, second deck off to the right of the plate and they

125
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:20,560
count 0-2. No balls and two strikes. Pedro Guerrero and Riesen holding the bag on Baker

126
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:26,560
and Pastore. Squinting in to get a sign from Trevino. Now comes back to his hitter and

127
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:31,560
that hit the right center field and is sinking and will fall for a hit. It's knocked down

128
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:36,560
by Eddie Milner and by the time he recovers and gets it in there are dodges at second

129
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:58,560
and third. So with Ren is at second and third and one out and a 1-1 tie, Dean Garvey coming

130
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:09,560
up. Charlie Lee Brandt will get up in the Cincinnati bullpen and John McNamara goes

131
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:14,560
walking out to the mound and he's walking in a hurry. But Charlie Lee Brandt throwing

132
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:20,560
in the pen and the Dodgers here in the inning with a walk as single and a double trying

133
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:25,560
to break the tie and chase Pastore and the ballgame has really just started. McNamara

134
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:32,560
continues to talk to Pastore so time out for the moment. One of the glaring problems with

135
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:37,560
the Dodgers this year, they get people on base but they don't get them home. For instance

136
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:43,560
when you look at the team batting average it's a very respectable 261. But then when

137
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:50,560
you look at the National League weekly averages it jumps out at you. The Los Angeles Dodgers

138
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:57,560
lead the National League and you know what department? That's right, left on base. Here

139
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:04,560
they are with Ren is at second and third and they lead by plenty. Here's Garvey. Garvey

140
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:11,560
hitting 249 and Pastore delivers that get bowed on the right field line and feeling

141
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:17,560
off and caught by the ball boy down by the top roller. Oh and one to count. So Sacks

142
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:22,560
walks and stole second. Landrow got him over to third and Baker picked him up with a base

143
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:31,560
hit and Guerrero has just doubled Baker to third. Garvey has always heard the Reds throughout

144
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:37,560
his career. This time he left that fly ball into shallow right. Coming in for it is Householder

145
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:42,560
tagging Baker and Baker's not coming. Householder's throw is cut off by Griesen. It would have

146
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:50,560
gotten him. So Garvey can't get anybody home and it's up to Say. Boy I guess Sacks probably

147
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:58,560
is the biggest indictment of any team to lead the league and then left on base. And now

148
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:18,560
here's Say. Ron Say hitting 245. He has five home runs and 20 runs batted him. So Say trying

149
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:24,560
to get squared away here with Pastore. Dodges at second and third. Two out, a one-one tie

150
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:30,560
here in the first inning. That story will now go to a windup. Frank Reddy and his first

151
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:35,560
pitch to Say. Fastball assists the hole. Backhand is by Concepcion. He's cranked up and throws

152
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:41,560
him out and the Dodgers leave runners at second and third. And the stigma is still there.

153
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:49,560
One-one tie. Young is a few minutes away from the first round at Las Vegas. The WBC Heavyweight

154
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,560
Championship fight. Larry Holmes eager to show up Jerry Cooney as the glorified amateur

155
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:59,560
remains a solid nine-five favorite to defeat the unbeaten number one contender. Cooney

156
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:05,560
is ready to take the title he says. I've been away from home since November and I didn't

157
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,560
come over here to Las Vegas to win this fight. I've been working with Victor Valle, the best

158
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:15,560
player in the world and we've worked quite a long time for this fight. Jerry says he's

159
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:21,560
not concerned with lack of a recent fight time. But they say they have 86 around. Well that's

160
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:27,560
a fight if all I have is 87 that's okay with me. When I get to these fights and I say to

161
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,560
ask those questions we're going to have to ask them what I want to do. Come in for the

162
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:37,560
challenger. Holmes is 39 and 0 with 29 knockouts. Cooney was almost 6 foot 6 and nearly a 3

163
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:42,560
inch height advantage and a 12 pound weight advantage after weighing in at 225 and a half

164
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:50,560
on Thursday. One-one tie at the end of an inning. Meanwhile on the scoreboard the Chicago Cubs

165
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:57,560
have failed 5 to nothing, then 5 to 3, then 7 to 3. They came up with 5 runs in the eighth

166
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:03,560
inning to take an 8 to 7 lead. And remember the Cubs have lost 10 in a row and don't you

167
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:09,560
know Montreal just scored twice in the bottom of the eighth inning? It is 9-8 Montreal and

168
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:15,560
the Cubs are three outs away from stepping off the pier. John Stone, Moreland and Oliver

169
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:22,560
home run. Santa Monica pier or in the lake. Holy mackerel. The Cardinals beat the Mets

170
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:28,560
7-3 Pittsburgh on Lee Lacey's inning home run beat Philadelphia 1-0. Houston San Diego

171
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:33,560
scoreless to the end of 2 and Atlanta picked up 2. Dale Murphy just did his 18th up in

172
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:39,560
San Francisco with a man aboard. American League in a moment. Mike Vail will start it

173
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:43,560
off the right hand hitting left fielder. He'll be followed by Johnny Bench and then Paul

174
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:48,560
Householder and the pitch is flung on and fouled away on one. There in the bottom of

175
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:54,560
the eighth inning California 6 and Chicago 1. Ruth Keaton had a perfect game for 6 and

176
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:59,560
a third innings until Tony Bernisar tripled in the seventh with one out and that led to

177
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:05,560
the White Shots run. Toronto beat Oakland 2-1 Baltimore 9 and the Yankees 4. Kurt Ball

178
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:12,560
fouled away. Boston 6 and Cleveland 2. It is 6 to 5 Milwaukee leading Detroit at the

179
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:23,560
end of 7. 2-2 Seattle Kansas City at the end of 8. Minnesota Texas rained out. Pitch fouled

180
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:40,560
away so it's still 0-2. Mike Vail starting it off. Then Johnny Bench and Paul Householder.

181
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:45,560
Royce looks in to get a sign. Socia wigwagon a couple of times out and Jerry into the windup.

182
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:50,560
Strike two pitch on the way is flung on and missed that ball Johnny. Let's pause for station

183
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:56,560
identification. This is the Los Angeles Dodgers radio network. And this is the American Forces

184
00:21:56,560 --> 00:22:09,560
radio and television service. Johnny Bench coming up. John hitting 220. The boy had a

185
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:15,560
star to fall in. You see Bench hitting 220. Tom Seaver having his problems. Then Ron Say,

186
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:21,560
Steve Garvey struggling. Royce into the windup. Jerry delivers. Fastball hit foul outside

187
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:27,560
a third and the count on one. June the 11th. Kind of a big day in the Dodger family and

188
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:33,560
particularly in the family of Ross and Lynn Porter with Wes and Mindy, the twins, celebrating

189
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:40,560
a birthday today. And of course Ross Jr. graduating from high school today on his way to Pappy

190
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:46,560
School at the University of Oklahoma. So what a day. June the 11th, 1969 for Wes and Mindy.

191
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:51,560
The pitch fouled away. And from all of us, happy birthday to the kids and the heartiest

192
00:22:51,560 --> 00:23:00,560
congratulations to Ross Jr. Indeed, indeed. John waiting at the plate. Royce Reddy comes

193
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:05,560
to him and it's grounded foul outside a third. Oh and two to the count. We mentioned it last

194
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:09,560
night. Bench has had some trouble breathing this year. They found a polyp in his nasal

195
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:14,560
passage and he'll probably have to have surgery after the season. Although medication is helping

196
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:26,560
it right now. John tied with Ralph Keiner for 26th place on the all-time home run list.

197
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:32,560
He is 369. Royce Reddy in the strike two pitch, low and inside. Ball one, one and two. The

198
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:41,560
next one he hits with Ty Gill Hodges. He's also up there in the RBI list pursuing penis

199
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:49,560
slaughter. Bench takes the low, ball two, two and two. One away here in the second inning,

200
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:54,560
a one-one tie. The Reds have run on a hit, Milner's double. The Dodgers have run on two

201
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:58,560
hits. But for the Dodgers, second and third and one out. They couldn't get anybody home.

202
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:04,560
The two-two pitch is swung on and missed. Royce taking a lot off and Bench way out in front

203
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:12,560
of it and down he goes. That is seven. Number two, Ralph Keiner for householder. So Royce

204
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:17,560
strikes out two and now the right fielder, Paul Householder coming up. Of course not

205
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:22,560
only the veterans like Bench and Siever and Faye and Darby who are having their troubles,

206
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:27,560
the kids are too. Here's the case in point, a youngster they feel has a world of ability.

207
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:32,560
After two big years in Indianapolis, Paul Householder, he takes the strike. The switch

208
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:41,560
hitter is batting 170. Householder batting right-handed. The strike one pitch to him

209
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:55,560
and a one-one tie. Royce going in to get a sign from Mike Sosha. The left-handed delivers

210
00:24:55,560 --> 00:25:00,560
a chopper down to short tough play for Russell. Oh, he short hopped on the run and got him.

211
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:05,560
What a play. That's really do or die. If you miss it, it's going to go on out in the left

212
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:11,560
center. But he came up with it and got him. And at the end of an inning and a half, a one-one

213
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:16,560
tie. Let's update baseball now. Cincinnati and Chicago cubs at Montreal. After two and

214
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:21,560
a half, the Expos two, the Cubs nothing. Al Oliver home run for Montreal, the first one

215
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:25,560
on his sixth of the year. Doug Ford three and six for the Cubbies. Charlie Lee four

216
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,560
and two for Montreal. Pittsburgh has defeated Philadelphia one-nothing. Pittsburgh one run

217
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:34,560
nine hits no errors. Phillies no run four hits no errors. The Colby can release the winner

218
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:40,560
four and two. Christensen the Roosier three and four. Attendant and veteran stadium 30,870.

219
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:46,560
Houston and San Diego nothing in yet. Something for Houston. Roller for San Diego. St. Louis

220
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:50,560
leads the New York Mets after one and a half, three nothing. As you are, five and four for

221
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:55,560
the Cardinals. Jones six and four for the Mets. Corner home run for St. Louis, the second

222
00:25:55,560 --> 00:26:01,560
one on his fifth of the year starting later. Atlanta at San Francisco. The American League

223
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:06,560
after four and a half at Oakland one, Toronto one. Kingman for Oakland, Clancy for Toronto.

224
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:11,560
After three and a half the Red Sox lead the Indians four to two. Baltimore has just defeated

225
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:17,560
New York nine to four. Home runs Renneke for the Orioles in the first with two on his 14th

226
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:21,560
of the year. Back to back it is. Ripken for Baltimore in the first, nobody on his fifth

227
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:27,560
of the year. And after seven and a half, California in front of Chicago six to one. Again we're

228
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:32,560
going to give you highlights after each round of the home scooty fight as soon as we receive

229
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:40,560
it in thanks to KNX radio in Los Angeles, also APR and UPI radio. Right now let's go

230
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:48,560
to the home second. Dodgers coming up. Out of the second inning one, one time. Mike Socha

231
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:54,560
will start it off followed by Bill Russell and then Jerry Royce. Socha back in the starting

232
00:26:54,560 --> 00:27:02,560
lineup. Yeager caught four in a row. And now Socha's turn. Mike hitting 236. He was in

233
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:06,560
there last night and had one hit. He doubled inside first down the line and drove in a

234
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:14,560
run. Socha at the plate and Frank Pastore looks in to get a sign. Right hander into

235
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:23,560
the windup and delivers and the first one is right in the count of one, one. Johnny

236
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:27,560
Bench about even with the bag at third but they're certainly not expecting Socha to try

237
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:39,560
to front. And Mike tired of waiting backed out. Pastore into the windup and the strike

238
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:45,560
one pitch three foul off to the left upstairs fourth level in the count of one, two. Well

239
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:49,560
the Dodgers of course were knocked on their numbers by Atlanta losing three straight to

240
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:54,560
them. The Reds haven't had much luck. They lost three in a row to the Braves at home

241
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:59,560
and then lost two out of three in Atlanta. They're pitched to Socha low. So they've lost

242
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:04,560
five out of six to the Braves. Of course the Dodgers will stop in Atlanta one of the stops

243
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:10,560
on this upcoming road trip. June has been a traveling month for the Dodgers. 22 of the

244
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:15,560
29 games played this month. There is a road. Socha comes one and it's just off the glove

245
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:22,560
of Ron Oster. Oster diving to smother but all he did was deflect it on out into right.

246
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:36,560
And that will bring up Bill Ruckel following the base hit by Socha. Bill Ruckel is having

247
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:42,560
ailing back. Rosalind playing on the Astor serve in Pittsburgh and St. Louis. So that

248
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:47,560
when he came home he just couldn't bend. His pain in the lower back but he said he's ready

249
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:52,560
to play tonight and he's in there. The pitch to him over first light. It was too bad because

250
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:58,560
for a while there he was the Dodgers hottest hitter. He had five hits against the Braves

251
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:04,560
but then the back flared up. The Russell waiting for that story delivers and that's driven

252
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:13,560
into right center so he hadn't lost the touch. Socha is on his way to third on a long single

253
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:24,560
by Bill Ruckel. Charlie LeBrant was going in the first and the Dodgers left run is the

254
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:29,560
second and third and Charlie's up again in the Cincinnati pen as the Dodgers go right

255
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:34,560
after Pastore. First and third nobody out and you have Jerry Royce. Well we'll see how

256
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:40,560
the Dodgers play it. They might have Royce bunt just to get Russell to second stay away

257
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:47,560
from the double play and leave it up to sacks. We'll see. Royce this year has five hits.

258
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:54,560
A double in one run batted in. He has a half a dozen sacrifices and he swings and hits

259
00:29:54,560 --> 00:30:00,560
one to bench but there's nobody covering second. Ron Oster couldn't get over to second base

260
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:06,560
looking bunt and bench had to throw to first so it's a swinging bunt so to speak. Of course

261
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:12,560
it is rule of the time at bat. So Royce grounds to third. Russell is at second. Socha holding

262
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:17,560
at third and the Dodgers who left run is at second and third in the first hit. LeBrant

263
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:24,560
is at second and third and one out in the second. Steve Sacks walked all second and

264
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:33,560
eventually came home with a run in the first inning. One away. Sacks with Lando DiBallo.

265
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:44,560
Pastore pitching out of his stretch again. Frank Seth looks at his runners. Now the

266
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:48,560
Dodgers lead to Sacks. The comebackers fear there and the throw goes to first. They had

267
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:56,560
Socha and Socha scores. Whoa did Pastore kick that one. Socha had committed himself

268
00:30:56,560 --> 00:31:03,560
and Pastore just went to first and Socha who was anything but fleet footed continued home

269
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:09,560
to score but Pastore should have had him easily. So the Dodgers lead two to one and the batter

270
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:21,560
now is Kenny Landro. So Sacks will get credit for a run batted in and the Dodgers leading

271
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:26,560
two to one as Landro is grounded out in the first inning check in. Two runs four hits

272
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:32,560
for the Dodgers. One run one hit for the Reds and of course Pastore reacted properly. The

273
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:37,560
Dodgers would be faced with another bleak situation of leaving men on base. The pitch

274
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:50,560
to Landro is low ball one one and oh. Pastore again out of his stretch. Looks at Russell

275
00:31:50,560 --> 00:32:08,560
at second. Right hander delivers and Landro hits a high drive in a right field. Back to

276
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:27,560
the second. Kenny Landro hits his first home run of the year and in a somewhat bizarre

277
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:34,560
inning the Dodgers lead four to one. Since it was his first of the year you're wondering

278
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:40,560
about his last one. It was against Bob Nepper October the fourth last year. Nepper pitching

279
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:44,560
with Houston. Baker takes in the third ball one. We send along a $50 book of union on

280
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:54,560
autoscript to the Charoptimist Boys Club in Santa Paula. What an inning. Couple of base

281
00:32:54,560 --> 00:33:01,560
hits and then Royce swinging away hits the fence but he can't throw to second base because

282
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:06,560
Oster is looking fun and he's racing to cover first and instead of what might have been

283
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:12,560
a double play they only get an out at first. Then the comeback of the man and Pastore blew

284
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:17,560
that play he could have had social. Line drive at Concepcion. So Baker hits it hard but an

285
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:23,560
out and the Dodgers enjoy a three run inning and at the end of two the Dodgers four Reds

286
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:28,560
one. Okay let's find out what's happening at Las Vegas they're underway and Tom Kelly

287
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:32,560
of KNX Radio Los Angeles is at ringside to describe what happened in the first round

288
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:36,560
of the Holmes-Cuney fight. It was an interesting first round it opened with Holmes sticking

289
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:40,560
out the left hand and dancing away from Cooney who kept plotting after him trying to throw

290
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:45,560
that same left hook which he landed about three times but with no great force or effect

291
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:50,560
right toward the end of the first round Holmes landed a punch and it kind of startled Cooney

292
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:56,560
a bit and because of that I had the round even although some of my fellow experts kind

293
00:33:56,560 --> 00:34:00,560
of gave it to Holmes I think it was an even round getting set for round number two and

294
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:04,560
we'll be back with a progress report as the fight continues. Okay we'll keep you abreast

295
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,560
of course between innings there's usually seven to ten minutes to team at bat so we

296
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:14,560
may have to give you a real rehash of what happened and then go back to Tom Kelly. Earlier

297
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:19,560
heavyweight James Quick-Killis scored a unanimous ten round decision over veteran Ernie Shavers

298
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:23,560
followed with part of the undercard of course to the WBC Heavyweight title fight between

299
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:27,560
champion Larry Holmes and challenger Jerry Cooney. Shavers knocked down Killis the ninth

300
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:32,560
round but Killis came back to batter Shavers in the final two rounds and Trevor Burvick

301
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:37,560
used a powerful right to hammer out a surprising ten round unanimous decision over previously

302
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:42,560
unbeaten Greg Page in a battle of heavyweight contenders. Burvick avoided the long left

303
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:48,560
jab of Page throughout the fight sliding to the side and landing dozens of crunching rights

304
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:55,560
to his head. Page also dancing and jabbing landed few solid punches in the fight. Third

305
00:34:55,560 --> 00:35:01,560
inning Dodgers four Reds one and the ball play by play here's Jerry Dodgers. Okay Vinnie

306
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:05,560
for the Reds it'll be Stravino, Pastore and Milner the first three to up here to face

307
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:11,560
Jerry Royce. They now have a little lead to work with. Any Landro's homerun. Back ground

308
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:18,560
out got the run in. Here's Stravino the catcher hitting 284 with no homers and 13 runs that

309
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:24,560
it ends. Stravino came over to the Reds from the Mets in the trade that called George Foster

310
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:30,560
go to New York. Now Royce to the wind up bandit. Pitch on the way to Stravino the fastball

311
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:35,560
up high one ball and no strike. Royce at five and five on the year trying to square it away.

312
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:47,560
Pitch well in his last game against the Cardinals. Here's the pitch fouled out of play. One ball

313
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:53,560
one strike. Royce on Sunday worked six and he gave up two runs and six hits to the Cardinals.

314
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:59,560
The Dodgers pulled that game out 25 to 3. Bouncing ball near second base. Russell makes

315
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:14,560
the play and time for Vinno to retire. So one away and here's Pastore coming on. And

316
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:23,560
Pastore will not bat. Wayne Krenzicki is going to bat for Pastore. Pastore is out early in

317
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:36,560
the ball game. Wayne Krenzicki K-R-E-M-C-H-I-C-K-I. Krenzicki came over from Baltimore. That was

318
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:45,560
a deal for Paul Moscow. Krenzicki bats here in the third inning. Pastore worked two innings

319
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:52,560
allowed four runs five hits. No strikeouts in the walk and Frank Leeds no doubt a little

320
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:56,560
bit upset about that. Pitching at home and coming back and having to leave early in the

321
00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:01,560
game. Frank's first game here in Dodger Stadium several years ago. The Dodgers told him for

322
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:06,560
some home runs. That was a memory he just assumed to get. Last year he had that big

323
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:12,560
night when he pitched on his life of giving birth to their baby. Now the 1-0 pitch on the

324
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:18,560
way to Krenzicki. Left hand batter takes low for ball two. Two and 0 to count. So we'll

325
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:22,560
see about a new pitcher. Charlie Lebrant was down there a little while ago and he's still

326
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:34,560
warming up now. Next pitch is in for a strike and it's two and one. Two balls one strike.

327
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:41,560
A third inning and a two and fifth. Chopped away foul out of play. Two and two. Two balls

328
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:48,560
and two strikes and the on deck circle is Eddie Milner the center fielder. Dodgers even

329
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:55,560
the score with one in the first inning and added three more in the second. Big Jerry

330
00:37:55,560 --> 00:38:02,560
Royce on the hill ready to go with it. Two two count and a fifth. Chuck him out. My heart

331
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:08,560
on the down goes Krenzicki. The third strikeout for Royce and the batter will be Milner who

332
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:12,560
opened the game with a double to left field and came around to score after a sacrifice

333
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:18,560
and a ground out. Eddie Milner batting 257 to start of the game. Dodgers lead four to

334
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:24,560
one trying to stamp a four game losing streak. So after a four and five road trip the Dodgers

335
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:29,560
come home for seven and now they've got to sweep in order to make it a three four home

336
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:33,560
stand. Breaking ball is down low. One ball on the strike and then on the road they go

337
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:39,560
to San Diego three games in San Diego and a travel day and four more in Cincinnati three

338
00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:45,560
in Atlanta and three in Houston. Longest trip of the year. It's about to foul first base

339
00:38:45,560 --> 00:39:04,560
side and it'll be a one ball one strike count to Milner. One and one count. Next pitch is

340
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:15,560
a strike and it's a one and two count out of Milner. One ball two strikes and the windup

341
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:20,560
in six. Fly ball to the right field. Dorado coming up for it. A goes right there. Makes

342
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:25,560
the catch to the side we tag. So they're gone one two three in the third and the score at

343
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:31,560
the end of two and a half Dodgers four and the Reds one. Okay we'll go to Tom Kelly for

344
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:37,560
the third and fourth round. A little later but round two here we go. Larry Holmes knocked

345
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:42,560
down Jerry Cooney with a right about two minutes into that second round. Cooney took an eight

346
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:47,560
count then got up. Holmes again dominated the round as Cooney again stayed mainly in

347
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:52,560
mid-ring. Holmes circles and after the flooring again through the majority of those trying

348
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:57,560
to stick the challenger with jazz. Cooney's main thrust was toward Holmes mid-section.

349
00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:02,560
There you have it the first round about even. That round of course has to go to home. We'll

350
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:07,560
be back again with more on it a little bit later on. Sunny and warm in Las Vegas as the

351
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:12,560
fight is now in the fourth round. Official national weather service temperature was 100

352
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:19,560
degrees. Holmes Cooney fight being held outdoors at a makeshift temperature. And the first

353
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:24,560
round as it started the temperature was in the mid-80s. Let's update the baseball scoreboard

354
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:29,560
national leg again the Fitzbrick Pirates have beaten the Phillies 1-0. We'll check more

355
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:34,560
later. There are three special attractions on the Dodgers home stands running from June

361
00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:04,560
Stadium. Be part of it. To the last half of the third Charlie Lebrant will come on now

362
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:12,560
for the Reds. Lebrant making his 15th appearance. Two and one is his record on the year. With

363
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:19,560
a 1.74 earned run average. Lebrant is on a sometimes charter. And last year with the

364
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:24,560
Reds was one and one at Cincinnati and four and seven at Indianapolis. Lebrant on the

365
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:28,560
verge of making with a big club but he has been up and down several times to Cincinnati

366
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:35,560
and Indianapolis. Out of Chicago, Illinois six four 200 pound left hander Charlie Lebrant

367
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:43,560
L-E-I-B-R-A-M-D-T. Lebrant will pick first to Guerrero, Bengali, and Trey here in the

368
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:52,560
third inning. Guerrero doubled the right center his last first time up. Pedro hitting three

369
00:41:52,560 --> 00:42:02,560
13. He's been swapping a bit so he's trying to get it back together again. Okay standing

370
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:08,560
in. Pete Guerrero batting fourth in the order and Lebrant down into the line. Good turn away.

371
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:13,560
A little high for the ball as Pedro ran up to zip the front but he go by one and 0 to

372
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:24,560
count. One ball and no strike. Now the pitch again. Bring it or miss. A speed pitch and

373
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:31,560
it's one and one. Well Montreal hung around to beat the Chicago Cubs nine to eight and

374
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:38,560
the Cubbies now have lost the 11 straight which is a seasonal high in the league. They

375
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:43,560
haven't won a game since they beat the Dodgers in Chicago a couple weeks ago. Fernando started

376
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:49,560
them on the skid and they're still going down. Simon was the winner and Campbell was the

377
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:59,560
loser. Two on pitch on the way to Pedro. High on the way for ball. So the Cubs now have

378
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:06,560
fallen to 14 games back and they trailed Pittsburgh by six. The Pittsburghs in fifth place so the

379
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:14,560
Cubbies are really going downhill. Pedro takes time for ball. He's on with a walk. That's

380
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:26,560
the first walk. First batter of the late man's base. Montreal has moved into a virtual tie

381
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:31,560
with Philadelphia for a second. Three and a half games back. The Mets are five and a

382
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:42,560
half. Pittsburgh remains eight back and Chicago now 14 back. One on, nobody out. Lee Brand

383
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:47,560
ready to go. Hit and run play. Swing and a bouncing ball. Left field play fifth. Here's

384
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:52,560
Guerrero around on his way to third. He will make it easy. On the hit and run play, the

385
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:58,560
shot stop, broke the cover and Garvey hit it right through the hole. Perfect execution

386
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:04,560
that time. As Garvey gets a base hit, bouncing one to left field. Guerrero winds up at third

387
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:10,560
base and the batter now will be Ron Faye who's rounded the short his last time up. The Dodgers

388
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:15,560
are trying to open this one up and what they really need is a fake lapper. They haven't

389
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:20,560
had any of those for a long time. They've had a lot of tough ones. The way the trend is

390
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:25,560
going right now, they have a chance to get one going. But they've got to keep the attack

391
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:32,560
rolling here in the third inning. Runners at first and third with nobody out. Faye the

392
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:37,560
hitter. And Lee Brand's six. Perky Jook, a high five ball to left field. Should be deep

393
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:44,560
enough to get Guerrero home. As Faye makes the catch and left brings his throw to second

394
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:51,560
base. Guerrero comes across the score and the Dodgers lead five to one on the sacrifice

395
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:56,560
fly by Ron Faye. He makes the catch and left brings his throw to second base. Guerrero

396
00:44:56,560 --> 00:45:02,560
comes across the score and the Dodgers lead five to one on the sacrifice fly by Ron Faye.

397
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:10,560
Ronny is 21st RBI. Here's Mike Sosa bat. He's one for one with a single to right field.

398
00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:25,560
Walk a single on the sacrifice fly for a run. Five-one Dodgers. We're in the third inning.

399
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:32,560
Okay, Sosa waiting, hitting 236. Lee Brand ready. And the left-hander deals high for

400
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:43,560
a one and oh the count. After Sosa will be Bill Russell. One oh the count. He's trying

401
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:48,560
to move Milner over a little bit into his center field. He's in left center right now,

402
00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:55,560
slightly off the mark. Sosa takes a curve ball for second at one and one. Charlie Lee

403
00:45:55,560 --> 00:46:02,560
is in the second. Pitching to Mike Sosa here in the third inning. Five runs and six hits

404
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:13,560
for the Dodgers. One-one for the Reds. Now the one-one fix. Fly ball to center field.

405
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:18,560
He hit it deep. Milner has to go way back for it. Now near the track makes the catch

406
00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:23,560
for the odds. So Sosa fly ball to deep center field. Two down and the batter will be Russell.

407
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:31,560
Russell has single and scored a run. Billy hitting 266 with two home runs and 19 RBI.

408
00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:36,560
So rather promising beginning a walk to Guerrero to hit and run single by Garvey but now two

409
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:43,560
fly ball out. And the Dodgers about to settle for only one in the inning. Let's Russell

410
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:49,560
to keep it going with Royce on deck. Pitch to Billy. In first strike at the knees. We're

411
00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:56,560
in the bottom of the third inning and it's five to one in favor of the Dodgers. Russell

412
00:46:56,560 --> 00:47:04,560
swings at a thinker and his bat goes flying all the way to third base. And it went beyond

413
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:10,560
the bag and Danny Ozark there picks it up and gives it to the bat boy. So Russell lost

414
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:20,560
the bat. And Billy now ready to go back in there again. Strike two count. Lucky one hit

415
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:30,560
and his hand came right off the bat. Garvey on first. Two out. Lee Brand up with the arms.

416
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:34,560
And the pitch to Russell. Off the glove of Carino all the way to the backstop and down

417
00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:39,560
to second base goes Garvey. A turn and holding there. Lee Brand really threw that one high

418
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:46,560
and wide inside. A wild pitch for the Reds left hander. Garvey at second base and Russell

419
00:47:46,560 --> 00:48:01,560
trying to pick him up. Billy has 19 runs patted in on the year and is hitting 268. Final score

420
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:05,560
in the American League. Milwaukee with two in the bottom of the eighth inning. Beat Detroit

421
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:15,560
eight to six. Zuckovich over Lopez and fingers got his 12th phase. The one to pitch. Luke

422
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:20,560
in the shallow center field. Miller coming up for it. He's there and makes the catch

423
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:25,560
for retired at the side. One run, one hit, one left on. The score at the end of three

424
00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:31,560
innings to play. The Dodgers five and the Reds have one. They're turning out already in New

425
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:36,560
York City to say no to the spread of nuclear weapons. Police figure that a half million

426
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:40,560
people will turn out tomorrow in New York City for what would be the biggest anti-nuclear

427
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:44,560
rally ever in the US. Hundreds of early arrivals are already in the city, including the one

428
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:50,560
baby sees Martin Burshaw across from the United Nations. Those are homemade Tom Toms being

429
00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:56,560
beaten by young people from the Onondaga tribe of Indians. There are others here as well.

430
00:48:56,560 --> 00:49:01,560
A young man from Japan, a young lady from Canada, part of an international group, only

431
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:07,560
about 10 sitting in Ralph Bunch Park, directly underneath. A sign cut into the stone that

432
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:12,560
says they shall beat their swords into blouse years. They are here a day early for the huge

433
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:18,560
demonstration and march against nuclear armament here in New York City. That's Martin Burshaw.

434
00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:24,560
The big rally will be held in Central Park. Argentina claims that British jets fired two

435
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:28,560
missiles at an Argentine hospital ship in the South Atlantic today but missed. President

436
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:31,560
Reagan's back in the White House after ending his European trip.

437
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:38,560
Updeadly, Holmes, Cooney fight round three. Jerry Cooney became more aggressive in this

438
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:42,560
round. Larry Holmes tried to set Cooney up with his jab landing often. Cooney missed

439
00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:47,560
a left. The punch he has left are led with throughout the bouts, but he connected with

440
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:52,560
a left uppercut to the chest. He seemed to be working on Holmes' ribs. The two fighters

441
00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:57,560
did a lot of moving around in the late part of the round. Tom Kelly will report the next

442
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:02,560
time around, see what's happening at Las Vegas. Right now, let's go back to baseball.

443
00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:08,560
Royce struck out pinch hitter Krenchicki who batted for Pastore in the top of the inning

444
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:13,560
and then Lee Brack came on in to take over the pitching. So we're set to go now and

445
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:16,560
Osters stepped in. There's a ball play. Let's go back to Vint.

446
00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:22,560
Okay, Jerry, Ron Osters sacrificed in the first inning, moving Milner to third where

447
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:26,560
they picked him up. So Osters foot hitter batting right handed. Five to one Dodgers.

448
00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:34,560
The first pitch swung on and fouled away. So Jerry staked to a five to one lead.

449
00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:42,560
The end was wind up in the strike one pitch. His round is fouled outside of first and down

450
00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:46,560
the line. Bangs off the auxiliary scoreboard and the count O and two.

451
00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:57,560
So it's Charlie LeBrand battling Jerry Royce now. The Dodgers five run six hit. The Reds

452
00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:02,560
one run one hit. Royce delivers. Pastore fouled away into the crowd behind the Cincinnati

453
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:13,560
dugout and the count O and two. No balls and two strikes to count Osters. Davy Concepcion

454
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:19,560
waiting his turn on deck. Royce into the wind up and another foul ball upstairs off to the

455
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:25,560
right of the plate. So Royce delivers and Osters keeps fouling him off. Final score

456
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:31,560
Milwaukee beat Detroit eight to six and the final score Montreal beat Chicago nine eight

457
00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:39,560
and the Cubs have lost eleven in a row. That's the longest losing streak. Naturally the longest

458
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:48,560
winning streak was Atlantis thirteen in a row. Royce Reddy delivers and it is swung on

459
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:54,560
and missed and down goes Osters. Such pause for station identification. This is the Los

460
00:51:54,560 --> 00:52:12,560
Angeles Dodgers radio network. Jerry Royce with four strikeouts and Davy Concepcion on

461
00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:17,560
the batter. Concepcion grounded out in the first inning to pick up the run. Davy hitting

462
00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:23,560
three oh five. Royce into the wind up. Jerry delivers and is off speed and very high. Concepcion

463
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:29,560
ran up and hit the front. One and O to count to Davy. Concepcion with a twelve game hitting

464
00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:43,560
streak. Now the next pitch is low ball two two and O. The longest hitting streak in the

465
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:48,560
league Jason Thompson had a seventeen game streak. Let's set you over for strike two

466
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:53,560
and one. Jason the first baseman for the Pirates hitting seventeen straight from the twenty

467
00:52:53,560 --> 00:53:02,560
first of April to the ninth of May. Concepcion now has hit in twelve. Here's a two one pitch

468
00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:08,560
to Concepcion. Royce delivers found away. With all of these foul balls you get the idea

469
00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:13,560
that Jerry's ball is moving a little more than it had been in a while. And with four

470
00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:19,560
strikeouts and Jerry is not particularly a strikeout pitcher, his two two pitch on the

471
00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:26,560
way. It's strike three called slow curve ball and Concepcion goes down not before muttering

472
00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:34,560
to the rookie umpire Bob Davidson. So five strikeouts for Jerry and Dan Brees in the

473
00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:44,560
vanity. The most strikeouts in a game this year by a pitcher. Eleven done twice by Mario

474
00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:50,560
Soto, Nolan Ryan and Steve Carlton. But of course Carlton then the other night struck

475
00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:57,560
out sixteen. And here is Breeson and he hits a pop fly. Sacks angles out on the grass and

476
00:53:57,560 --> 00:54:02,560
it's an easy inning for Royce who is really pitching now. He's retired everybody since

477
00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:14,560
the leadoff double by Milner and at the end of three and a half Dodgers five Reds one.

478
00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:33,560
This is the American Fork. This is radio and television sir.

479
00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:51,560
Let's check on the fight again. Cooney was more aggressive in round four began landing

480
00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:55,560
a lot more. Holmes started the round off with a bunch of jams and landed. Holmes caught

481
00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:59,560
Cooney in the chin with a left hook in the first minute. Also in the first minute Cooney

482
00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:04,560
connected to Holmes' body. In round five the round was uneventful with the first minute

483
00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:07,560
and a half with the round pretty much even. Cooney sent Holmes back a bit with a right

484
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:11,560
in the first minute. Late in the round Holmes caught Cooney on the left side of the head

485
00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:15,560
later connected with a right. Let's continue on and see what's happening as we go to Las

486
00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:20,560
Vegas. And again, Can-X radio sportsman on the scene Tom Kelly.

487
00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:24,560
This is a strange fight just for the looks as though Cooney is going to go down. Cooney

488
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:29,560
comes back and whims around. He was down in round two, staggered in round six, came back

489
00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:33,560
and won round seven in the opinion of yours truly and the rest of the so-called experts

490
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:38,560
gathered here. As I don't think Holmes really threw a punch in the seventh round. Cooney

491
00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:42,560
busy throwing lefts and rights and like most good fighters once you throw a left hand and

492
00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,560
keep throwing it right you seem to have the best of the round against no matter who you're

493
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:49,560
fighting. Both of these men are putting on an excellent show. It's extremely warm in

494
00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:54,560
Vegas. They're expending a lot of energy and there is a slight abrasion around the nose

495
00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:59,560
and up around the left eye of Cooney but it has caused no problems so far in the fight.

496
00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:04,560
Right now I've got Cooney ahead by just a point. We're going into round number eight.

497
00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:15,560
Five runs on a half a dozen hits for the Dodgers. One run, one hit for Cincinnati. That was

498
00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:20,560
Milner's double and Royce has gotten everybody ten due to tie twelve in a row. The strike

499
00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:27,560
one pitch on the way is outside and high. One ball, one strike. So Frank Festori worked

500
00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:33,560
two innings. It was not his night. They hit for him and LeBrand now is one, one pitch.

501
00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:43,560
He's pulled into right field. Eight hits for Royce. So Jerry Royce comes up with his sixth

502
00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:58,560
hit of the year and the batter will be Steve Sacks. Steve Sacks has walked and hit back

503
00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:05,560
to the box. So Royce standing at first putting on a windbreaker and Sacks checking with Danny

504
00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:10,560
Ozark before he climbs in on deck Kenny Landrow who hit his first home run of the year tonight.

505
00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:15,560
LeBrand out of his stretch. The left hander delivers and there's a high bouncer over the

506
00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:20,560
mound over second in the center field and Royce is going to go to third and the throw

507
00:57:20,560 --> 00:57:26,560
to third hits in there as the strike by Ben gets backed up by LeBrand and in the second

508
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:32,560
goes Sacks. I couldn't believe Royce was going to take the extra base and he just didn't

509
00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:38,560
get away with it. He's got to be feeling pretty chipper. Nobody out to go first to third on

510
00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:49,560
a single to center. Sacks was, Royce was nailed trying to score in St. Louis on a base hit

511
00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:55,560
thrown out of the plate. He just didn't make it to third and now second and third and here

512
00:57:55,560 --> 00:58:03,560
is Landrow. So the Dodgers leading five to one. Landrow is grounded out and homers and

513
00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:18,560
LeBrand delivers in the dirt. A good save by Trevino. Four one, one and oh. LeBrand

514
00:58:18,560 --> 00:58:24,560
checking. Now Charlie Sacks. The left hander comes back one oh and there's a line drive

515
00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:34,560
in the right field. Base hit. Royce will score. Sacks will stop and on the throw that gets

516
00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:36,560
through to catcher Trevino. In the second base goes Landrow and the Dodgers lead six

517
00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:51,560
to one. Dusty Baker. Nice field. So Dusty Baker will be coming up. The Dodgers lead

518
00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:56,560
six to one. The Dusty Baker will be coming up and in a moment the Reds will get somebody

519
00:58:56,560 --> 00:59:01,560
up in their bullpen. Six runs, nine hits for the Dodgers. One run, one hit for the Reds.

520
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:08,560
And with Landrow at second and Sacks at third, still nobody out. And here is Baker. Singled

521
00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:14,560
and lined out to short. Left hander Bob Shirley begins to throw in the Cincinnati bullpen

522
00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:23,560
and the fastball is low to Baker ball one, one and oh. So the Dodgers scoring in every

523
00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:29,560
inning and leading six one here in the fourth. Now the one oh pitch on the way. LeBrand delivers

524
00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:34,560
and the big chopper to third then going at the Sacks and gets back to the back. Then

525
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:39,560
he throws to first for the outs. So the run is holding as Baker grounds out. One away.

526
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:49,560
And the batter is Guerrero. The Dodgers left second and third in the first inning. And

527
00:59:49,560 --> 00:59:53,560
with second and third and nobody out Baker can't pick anybody up and here is Guerrero.

528
00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:59,560
And Guerrero is going to get four. They're going to walk Guerrero intentionally and take

529
00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:05,560
their chances hoping to get a double play on Garvey or at least a fourth play. So there's

530
01:00:05,560 --> 01:00:29,560
the first to four line one. So in a moment the Dodgers will have the bases loaded. And

531
01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:36,560
Steve Garvey coming up. So the Dodgers leading six to one. They have a golden opportunity

532
01:00:36,560 --> 01:00:44,560
to break it wide open. Garvey has flying to right and then hits the run single to left

533
01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:59,560
in the third inning. So Guerrero at first. Landrow at second. Sacks to third. One out.

534
01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:06,560
Garvey hitting two forty eight. LeBrand will pitch out of a stretch. The left hander ready.

535
01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:11,560
Set at the belt. The pitch to Garvey is one on a miss. And LeBrand turned it over. It

536
01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:17,560
acted somewhat like a through ball. Bottom drop out of it. Oh and one. Here in the inning

537
01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:22,560
Royce single to right. Sacks single up the middle with Royce taking third. He just didn't

538
01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:28,560
make it. And Landrow single home Royce. Sacks took third and Landrow took second on the

539
01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:34,560
throw to the plate. And after Baker grounds out they walk Guerrero. Oh and one that counts

540
01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:43,560
to Garvey. LeBrand set at the belt. They strike one pitch and Garvey takes on one and one.

541
01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:48,560
The Chicago White Docks didn't win but they had to scare the Angels half to death. The

542
01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:53,560
Angels were leading six to nothing. And the White Docks got one in the seventh, two in

543
01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:58,560
the eighth, two in the ninth and fell a buck short. And the next one Garvey can't walk

544
01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:07,560
it. So Royce Keaton got the win. Docks has lost it. Jeff Corbett picks up a save. And

545
01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:13,560
now on a 2-1 count time called Bill Fisher going out the mound to talk to LeBrand. Fisher

546
01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:22,560
the pitching coach for John McNamara. So the base is loaded one out and the Dodgers leading

547
01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:34,560
six to one on deck on day. Fisher who holds a rather remarkable stat in his pitching days

548
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:44,560
of consecutive innings without a walk being allowed trying to counsel his young pitcher.

549
01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:49,560
Fisher went 84 and a third consecutive innings without walking a batter when he pitched in

550
01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:59,560
the second. Garvey winds up wings and misses and they count two and two. LeBrand checking

551
01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:06,560
Trevino. The two fellows who for years have been the spark plug for the Dodgers in run

552
01:03:06,560 --> 01:03:13,560
production, Garvey and Say. Both men struggling a little bit. The 2-2 pitch just fell over

553
01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:23,560
the train into the back. Two and two. Garvey with 24 runs batted in and Say with 20. And

554
01:03:23,560 --> 01:03:30,560
of course the Dodgers as we mentioned leading the league in men left on. And you know that

555
01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:35,560
if they're leaving that many men on and the fact that Garvey and Say do not have a lot

556
01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:40,560
of RBIs when given the opportunities, you know that they're two of the culprits. The

557
01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:46,560
2-2 pitch is a little fly ball to right. That's going to be trouble. It's going to run.

558
01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:54,560
In comes Sack. In comes Landrow. Stopping his third to Rarrow on a blue single to right.

559
01:03:54,560 --> 01:03:58,560
Garvey and the Dodgers will take it. 8-1 Dodgers.

560
01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:08,560
1-0. 1-0.

561
01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:19,560
So the Dodgers leading 8-1 now. A little blooper by Garvey. It was hit in no man's land just

562
01:04:19,560 --> 01:04:25,560
inside the right field foul line and too far back and not high enough for Oslo or Greece

563
01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:35,560
in to get to it. So 8-1 Dodgers. And here is Ron Say. LeBrand checking. The left-hander

564
01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:40,560
delivers and Say is to drop all the bench. Yuggles and has to go to first and the run

565
01:04:40,560 --> 01:04:46,560
scores. John had an easy play at the plate but he couldn't handle the ball cleanly. So

566
01:04:46,560 --> 01:04:50,560
the Dodgers get another kill and they lead 9-1.

567
01:04:50,560 --> 01:04:55,560
9-1 Dodgers.

568
01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:05,560
So the Dodgers are not only leading, they are lucky tonight. If you go into the Dodger

569
01:05:05,560 --> 01:05:10,560
Club house after a couple of their tough defeats, the fellas would naturally take time to point

570
01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:14,560
out that this blue single and that ground ball that had eyes, well it is coming back

571
01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:18,560
the other way tonight. Everything they hit finds a hole, a blooper here and ground ball

572
01:05:18,560 --> 01:05:28,560
there. And a bad play by the Reds. Mike Sosia takes low, ball one, 1-0. The Reds defensively,

573
01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:34,560
it's not the number of errors they made and tonight they have not been charged with an

574
01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:40,560
error but they have made four plays. They have failed to execute. The 1-0 pitch, foul

575
01:05:40,560 --> 01:05:49,560
back, 1-1. The first length that story was guilty of that. In the second inning, the Dodgers

576
01:05:49,560 --> 01:05:55,560
scored one in the first, three in the second, one in the third and four in the fourth. So

577
01:05:55,560 --> 01:06:01,560
they are leading 9-1 here with two outs. Sosia single and fly it out and he looks at a pitch

578
01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:18,560
down and away. 2-1 to count Mike. On deck Bill Russell. It will be a big night for Greg.

579
01:06:18,560 --> 01:06:27,560
Born in Linwood, the 2-1 pitch inside ball three, three and one. Greg went to school

580
01:06:27,560 --> 01:06:33,560
at Long Beach City College. He'll be on the hill tomorrow night at Dodger Stadium for

581
01:06:33,560 --> 01:06:43,560
Cincinnati. He waited a while, 26. 3-1 pitch. Sosia pops it up into shallow right field.

582
01:06:42,460 --> 01:06:47,560
so they're coming in and the ball is high enough for him to get under it. Ball makes

583
01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:51,560
the catch and that's a four run inning for the Dodgers. At the end of four, Dodgers nine,

584
01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:56,560
Reds one. Let's check and see what's happening in the home of Cooney WBC Heavyweight Championship

585
01:06:56,560 --> 01:07:02,560
fight. Not much action until late in the eighth round. The two men exchanged blows. Holmes

586
01:07:02,560 --> 01:07:06,560
connected with a bunch of rights to the head causing Cooney to bleed again. Holmes continued

587
01:07:06,560 --> 01:07:12,560
working the jab on Cooney's left eye. Holmes started dancing again but Cooney again standing

588
01:07:12,560 --> 01:07:16,560
in mid-ring. Cooney threw a flurry in the second minute without doing much damage. Cooney

589
01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:22,560
relied on his left. Both fighters were sweating profusely in the 90 plus degree temperature.

590
01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:27,560
When the round ended, Cooney turned and looked at his mom at ringside. Now for round nine,

591
01:07:27,560 --> 01:07:32,560
let's go to Las Vegas. On the scene, Tom Kelly. The Nisonese went out of this fight about

592
01:07:32,560 --> 01:07:38,560
30 seconds left in round number nine when Cooney, the challenger, hit Holmes south of

593
01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:43,560
the border and so far south of the border the referee Mills Lane stepped in and gave the

594
01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:49,560
champion a respite of about 35 or 40 seconds in which to compose himself, catch his breath

595
01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:54,560
and get himself back in condition to continue the fight. Cooney had been the aggressor.

596
01:07:54,560 --> 01:07:57,560
I thought Cooney won the round but they're going to take the point away from him and

597
01:07:57,560 --> 01:08:01,560
so we'll put that round in Holmes' corner. The fight continues to go on. The experts

598
01:08:01,560 --> 01:08:06,560
say the longer it goes the better it will be for Larry Holmes but believe me both men

599
01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:10,560
are feeling the effects. Cooney remains the aggressor though he's been knocked down once

600
01:08:10,560 --> 01:08:15,560
and staggered on another occasion. He still seems to be the stronger of the two men. Holmes

601
01:08:15,560 --> 01:08:18,560
no longer up and dancing but flat footed as they approach and we're getting ready for

602
01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:23,560
round number 10. We're going to the fifth inning. The Dodgers nine runs, ten hits, no

603
01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:33,560
errors and the Reds one run, one hit. Mike Vail will start it off if he's followed by

604
01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:40,560
Johnny Bench and then all householders. Vail struck out in the second inning. So Jerry

605
01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:51,560
Royce sitting way up on top of a mountain leading nine one and looking down at Vail.

606
01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:55,560
Jerry Reddy delivers and the breaking ball is right. If you're up on top of a mountain

607
01:08:55,560 --> 01:09:00,560
looking down on Vail you've got to be in Colorado. Of course and he's in heaven anyway leading

608
01:09:00,560 --> 01:09:10,560
by eight. Jerry Reddy comes back all one and it's in the dirt. One ball and one strike.

609
01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:20,560
They're in round 11 of the Cooney-Holmes fight. Eleven of the schedule fifteen. I don't know

610
01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:31,560
I saw a couple of rounds and wasn't anything going on. 0-2 to count. Mike Vail he's hitting

611
01:09:31,560 --> 01:09:35,560
two eighty-nine at the start of the game with three home runs, seventeen runs batted in.

612
01:09:35,560 --> 01:09:43,560
Royce's fastball is high one and two. Jerry allowed the double the milner opening up the

613
01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:48,560
ballgame and he hasn't given up anything else since the one-two pitch is in the dirt. Vail

614
01:09:48,560 --> 01:09:54,560
starts the sling and holds up. They count two and two. Royce has retired twelve in a

615
01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:59,560
row. Of course in the fourth inning he was running the bases. We'll see how he reacts

616
01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:07,560
to that here in the fifth inning. Two-two pitch coming up. Royce delivers from all back.

617
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:13,560
He had a little something on that one. Royce he has struck out five. He struck out Vail

618
01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:19,560
and Bench in the second inning. Then he got Trinchicki in the third and he struck out

619
01:10:19,560 --> 01:10:25,560
Ostrand Concepcion in the fourth. Here's the two-two pitch. Hanging on and hits the left

620
01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:37,560
deep but it is hooking down the line and going foul in the lower deck. They're in the twelfth

621
01:10:37,560 --> 01:10:45,560
round over in Las Vegas. From the looks of things I would guess it's been a pretty close

622
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:52,560
fight. Royce into the windup and the two-two pitch on the way. A busted back-round ball

623
01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:57,560
to left and that's where Belanger is now for Russell and he throws the first for the outs.

624
01:10:57,560 --> 01:11:02,560
Another thing for the Dodgers tonight in filing up a nine-to-one lead they're able to let

625
01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:11,560
Russell sit it out the rest of the way. Johnny Bent is coming up. Bent struck out in the

626
01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:22,560
second inning. One out, top of the fifth, nine-to-one Dodgers. Royce delivers and is flung on and

627
01:11:22,560 --> 01:11:28,560
fouled away all in one. Dodgers scoring in every inning and the Reds having that lead

628
01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:33,560
off doubled by Eddie Milner and nothing else since. Royce is retired thirteen in a row.

629
01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:42,560
Royce comes back, oh one, and Bent shakes it low. One ball, one strike. John is hit

630
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:52,560
and seven out of eight. Royce into the windup. The one-one pitch defense fouled away. One

631
01:11:52,560 --> 01:12:06,560
and two. Royce standing back of the rubber, thinking over his pitches. Now Jerry up on

632
01:12:06,560 --> 01:12:17,560
top. On deck is Paul Householder. Royce one-two pitch, then fouled it off again. So to repeat

633
01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:23,560
during the twelfth round over in Las Vegas if we get any news at all about it we'll pass

634
01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:29,560
it along to you. Here's the one-two pitch on the way. Fast ball, tap foul off to the

635
01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:40,560
left of the plate. One and two. The Dodgers score one in the first to tie the Reds and

636
01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:45,560
then three in the second, one in the third, and four in the fourth. Royce into the windup.

637
01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:50,560
Here's the one-two pitch on the way. Big chopper to save. Wrong glove, just steps for the

638
01:12:50,560 --> 01:13:02,560
throw and that'll do it for Bent. The Royce was still out in the fifth. Now has Paul Householder.

639
01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:11,560
So Jerry has retired fourteen in a row. Householder lost the hit on a good play by Bill Russell.

640
01:13:11,560 --> 01:13:16,560
Charging a high chopper, he had a short hopper, kind of a desperate measure type play and

641
01:13:16,560 --> 01:13:20,560
he came up with it to throw him out. Royce delivers and it's sliced to right center.

642
01:13:20,560 --> 01:13:25,560
Guerrero cruising over to handle it. Fifteen in a row retired by Jerry. He's allowed just

643
01:13:25,560 --> 01:13:30,560
to lead off double. And at the end of four and a half Dodgers nine and the Reds one.

644
01:13:30,560 --> 01:13:35,560
In round ten of the Holmes-Cuney fight, here's what happened. Jerry Cuney became more aggressive,

645
01:13:35,560 --> 01:13:39,560
landing a few blows. Holmes caught Cuney with a right in the first minute and Cuney landed

646
01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:43,560
a few blows in the first minute, mostly in the midsection. Holmes was trapped along the

647
01:13:43,560 --> 01:13:48,560
ropes until the referee broke the fighters out of the clutch. Late in that tenth round,

648
01:13:48,560 --> 01:13:54,560
the two fighters began flinging away. Cuney caught Holmes in the midsection. Holmes hit

649
01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:59,560
Cuney in the jaw. Cuney's left eye started to close up. Both fighters were tiring. Now

650
01:13:59,560 --> 01:14:03,560
for the eleventh round, let's go to ringside in Las Vegas and Tom Kelly. There's a slight

651
01:14:03,560 --> 01:14:08,560
cut in the eyebrow above the left eye of Jerry Cuney. His corner's working on it. I don't

652
01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:13,560
think it's going to be a factor by the time they decide who wins this fight. Another low

653
01:14:13,560 --> 01:14:17,560
blow in round eleven took that round away from Cuney. I don't know about Holmes, who

654
01:14:17,560 --> 01:14:21,560
suddenly looked very strong, might have won the round all by himself. But a low blow,

655
01:14:21,560 --> 01:14:26,560
and that cost Cuney a point, and a very valuable point it is, as we get into the late stages

656
01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:31,560
of this fight now, it is very close. Holmes now ahead by a point on my scorecard. He knocked

657
01:14:31,560 --> 01:14:36,560
Cuney down in the second just to recap for you. Staggered him again in the sixth, but

658
01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:41,560
in between, Cuney has been the aggressor throughout the fight. He's got Holmes now standing flat-footed

659
01:14:41,560 --> 01:14:46,560
in fighting, and Holmes looks very much every bit of his thirty-two years as the heat in

660
01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:50,560
Las Vegas is very oppressive and they get set for round twelve. I'll be back in a bit.

661
01:14:50,560 --> 01:14:54,560
We'll check in again with Tom Kelly in baseball. Darrell Porter drove in three runs tonight

662
01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:59,560
to help the St. Louis Cardinals rip the New York Mets seven to three.

663
01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:04,560
They go to the bottom of the fifth inning with the Dodgers leading a red nine to one.

664
01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:11,560
They're in the thirteenth round in Las Vegas. Both fighters appear to be pretty tired at

665
01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:16,560
this stage, and they're not really that much to report on it. The early feeling of those

666
01:15:16,560 --> 01:15:21,560
who have been watching it say that Holmes, although it is certainly unofficial, but the

667
01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:27,560
reports we seem to get that Holmes would be way out in front on points. Mark Blandger

668
01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:34,560
takes high ball one, one and oh. So Blandger, Royce, and Sacks, bottom of the fifth inning,

669
01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:38,560
nine to one in favor of the Dodgers. Schalke, the brand, and relief for Frank Pastore, and

670
01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:52,560
the pitch to Mark is high, ball two, two and oh. Blandger hitting two sixty-three. And

671
01:15:52,560 --> 01:15:58,560
Blandger hits it into center field for a base hit. So Mark Blandger opens up the fifth inning

672
01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:07,560
with the eleventh Dodger hit. In fact, everybody but Say has a base hit, and Say has a scoring

673
01:16:07,560 --> 01:16:15,560
five all, and he has two RBIs. So four runs and six hits on Charlie LeBrand and Jerry

674
01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:28,560
Royce making his way up to the plate. Royce grounded the third, and then single to right.

675
01:16:28,560 --> 01:16:31,560
When he grounded the third, he was around just a punt. He's around a punt now, and this

676
01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:38,560
time gets it down. Ben has to go to first base where Ron Oster is covering, so Royce

677
01:16:38,560 --> 01:16:45,560
makes it to first base. The style of Judges at emphasize. In round thirteen it would appear

678
01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:54,560
that Jerry Cooney has staggered and gone down. In the thirteenth round he held onto the rope

679
01:16:54,560 --> 01:17:03,560
with eleven seconds left, but he is a man in dire straits, and they have stopped the

680
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:06,560
fight, and Holmes has just defeated Jerry Cooney. They have stopped the fight in the

681
01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:12,720
left but Cooney stumbled was almost out on his feet and they stopped it before he was seriously

682
01:17:12,720 --> 01:17:18,720
injured so that's the report. It is over in Las Vegas and Holmes the champion is the winner and

683
01:17:18,720 --> 01:17:27,840
the fish to see Saks is inside ball one. Cooney's face appeared bloodied and Holmes appeared to be

684
01:17:27,840 --> 01:17:37,040
pretty much in charge of the fight all the way. The one-oh fish to Saks is swung on and missed one and one. Saks

685
01:17:37,040 --> 01:17:45,760
walked, hit back to the box and strangled. Steve one for two. Kenny Landrow is on deck. Big night for Kenny

686
01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:51,440
not only with two hits but he hit his first home run of the year. LeBrandt out of his stretch.

687
01:17:51,440 --> 01:17:58,720
A one-one pitch to Steve Saks and that's taken low. So with Landrow hitting a home run it would mean

688
01:17:58,720 --> 01:18:04,480
that all of the regulars except Saks has a home run. Regular now.

689
01:18:10,640 --> 01:18:16,080
Two balls and one strike to Steve Saks. Dolly LeBrandt delivers a little nub of back to the

690
01:18:16,080 --> 01:18:21,760
mound. LeBrandt is able to look his man Belanger back and then throw his reason for the out.

691
01:18:22,480 --> 01:18:24,880
So two down and Kenny Landrow the batter.

692
01:18:29,120 --> 01:18:35,760
The official time of that TKO is 2 52 of the 13th round and I'm sure they will

693
01:18:35,760 --> 01:18:45,920
put the notice up on Diamond Vision at the end of this inning. So nine to one Dodgers fifth inning two out.

694
01:18:47,680 --> 01:18:54,080
LeBrandt looks in to get a sign and Landrow waiting. Charlie at the belt. Left-hander kicks, delivers

695
01:18:54,080 --> 01:19:00,880
and misses line outside. Ball one on deck Dusty Baker. The Dodgers had scored in every inning. They

696
01:19:00,880 --> 01:19:06,080
haven't scored here but they have a man in scoring position. Belanger at second base.

697
01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:13,360
One ball no strike. Charlie LeBrandt ready and the one-oh pitch is a breaking ball found away.

698
01:19:13,360 --> 01:19:17,840
Landrow hits a curve off the end of the bat. Hit it over near Dusty Baker. One and one.

699
01:19:24,160 --> 01:19:26,800
Kenny backs out for the moment now back up to the plate.

700
01:19:26,800 --> 01:19:31,840
And LeBrandt who is in relief for Frank Pastore comes back one one and the fast ball is in there.

701
01:19:31,840 --> 01:19:33,840
Strike two. One and two.

702
01:19:36,880 --> 01:19:44,720
Nine to one Dodgers in the fifth trying to snap a four game losing streak. Their longest losing streak of the year was six.

703
01:19:47,440 --> 01:19:52,400
And the one-two pitch on the way Landrow pulls it foul outside of first and down the line.

704
01:19:52,400 --> 01:20:01,440
Frank Pastore went two innings but Dodgers scored five times. Actually they four times and then they hit for him.

705
01:20:06,320 --> 01:20:09,440
The next pitch to Landrow missing ball two. Two and two to count.

706
01:20:09,440 --> 01:20:18,000
Nine to one Dodgers bottom of the fifth. LeBrandt looks in to get a sign from Alex Trevino and Charlie is ready.

707
01:20:18,000 --> 01:20:22,720
The two-two pitch to Landrow is taken outside ball three. Three and two.

708
01:20:25,280 --> 01:20:27,040
Nine runs to the count.

709
01:20:27,040 --> 01:20:33,280
And Charlie is ready. The two-two pitch to Landrow is taken outside ball three. Three and two.

710
01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:38,640
Nine runs to eleven hits including a home run by Landrow and a double by Guerrero.

711
01:20:43,360 --> 01:20:51,840
The three-two pitch on the way is flight to left down the field. Coming in a hurry is Milner but it not only lands it goes all the way to the fence.

712
01:20:51,840 --> 01:21:07,360
The Landrow will score. Landrow will be in the third standing and it is ten to one Dodgers. A triple for Kenny.

713
01:21:11,200 --> 01:21:14,720
The ten-one Dodgers will pause the station identification.

714
01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:18,240
This is the American Forces radio and television service.

715
01:21:24,800 --> 01:21:30,640
So the Dodgers really rolling it up now ten to one having been thumped the other night by Atlanta you remember.

716
01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:38,160
And Dusty Baker takes the strike so the Dodgers continue to make it look like a telephone number as they score in every inning.

717
01:21:38,160 --> 01:21:47,280
Here's the strike one pitch on the way and Baker drives it to right center and Milner on his horse for this one and makes the running catch for the outs.

718
01:21:47,280 --> 01:21:52,480
The Dodgers get a run on two hits and at the end of five Dodgers ten reds one.

719
01:21:52,480 --> 01:22:01,520
Let's have the final wrap up of that fight from Las Vegas and once again here's Tom Kelley.

720
01:22:01,520 --> 01:22:09,520
Well the man who claimed he got no respect as heavyweight champion of the world, Jerry, has just gained the respect I think of the entire boxing fraternity.

721
01:22:09,520 --> 01:22:16,320
When he knocked out Jerry Cooney the undefeated champion of the world, he was the only one left to fight.

722
01:22:16,320 --> 01:22:23,120
He has just gained the respect I think of the entire boxing fraternity when he knocked out Jerry Cooney the undefeated challenger.

723
01:22:23,120 --> 01:22:31,120
It will be down in the books about 253 of round number 13 as I'm sure a constant barrage of lefts and rights in the 13th round.

724
01:22:31,120 --> 01:22:41,280
The debilitating heat in Las Vegas and a champion bent on continuing as champion in the heavyweight division just refused to let the talented challenger take the crown away from him.

725
01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:48,480
It's kind of a madhouse scene in the ring in Las Vegas. We had Holmes ahead by three points 116 to 113.

726
01:22:48,480 --> 01:22:55,360
Going into this the 13th round it became very evident soon into the 13th round that Cooney had literally run out of gas.

727
01:22:55,360 --> 01:22:59,360
The heat, the distance, the toughness of the champion all those playing an important part.

728
01:22:59,360 --> 01:23:02,720
Not that Holmes will want to go to the dance tonight. Don't misunderstand me.

729
01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:08,720
He's had a very very tough evening under extreme boxing conditions but he was very much the best man here tonight.

730
01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:12,720
And he proved if nothing else that he is a champion worthy of being called that.

731
01:23:12,720 --> 01:23:21,520
He is now without a loss he has 30 knockouts and 40 victories and he retains his title with his 12th title defense.

732
01:23:21,520 --> 01:23:29,520
He has beaten everybody and in the 13th round carry he literally without stop battered Cooney into the ring ropes.

733
01:23:29,520 --> 01:23:33,520
Cooney a game tough kid went half way down pulled himself back up.

734
01:23:33,520 --> 01:23:43,520
And Victor Valley who is more like a father than a trainer with this young contender and challenger jumped into the ring, stopped Holmes and stopped the official and stopped the fight.

735
01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:53,520
Tom Kelly reporting from ringside again Larry Holland remains the World Boxing Council Heavyweight Champion stopping Jerry Cooney in the 13th round in Las Vegas.

736
01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:58,520
For the post fight items coming up perhaps a comment or two from Larry Holmes or the trainer.

737
01:23:58,520 --> 01:24:01,520
We'll keep you abreast of what's happening right now let's go back to the ball game in Las Vegas.

738
01:24:01,520 --> 01:24:03,520
Here's Ben Scully.

739
01:24:10,520 --> 01:24:19,520
Final score Kansas City with a run in the 12th inning beat Seattle 3 to 2 Quishenberry over Vandiver.

740
01:24:19,520 --> 01:24:30,520
We'll have a hitter now coming up for Charlie LeBrand so that means Bob Shirley will be coming in.

741
01:24:30,520 --> 01:24:36,520
Dwayne Walker will be batting Fort Lee Brand.

742
01:24:36,520 --> 01:24:38,520
Dwayne Walker.

743
01:24:47,520 --> 01:24:51,520
Walker hitting 200 he's only had 10 at bat.

744
01:24:53,520 --> 01:24:55,520
And he's 2 for 10.

745
01:24:55,520 --> 01:25:05,520
Quite a hurdle you might remember was the opening day outfielder for Cincinnati who failed to cut it.

746
01:25:05,520 --> 01:25:09,520
And when a hurdle was sent down they brought Dwayne Walker up.

747
01:25:09,520 --> 01:25:16,520
Left hand batter and Royce ready and bounces one in the dirt ball one.

748
01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:22,520
Dwayne Walker is from Pasadena Texas.

749
01:25:26,520 --> 01:25:31,520
He's been in the minors since 1976 swings and grounds one wide at first to Garvey.

750
01:25:31,520 --> 01:25:35,520
The one to hand to Royce coming over that's 17 in a row.

751
01:25:35,520 --> 01:25:40,520
Now that takes care of Dwayne Walker and it'll bring up Ed Milner.

752
01:25:40,520 --> 01:25:50,520
Milner opened up the ball game and doubled the left center field.

753
01:25:50,520 --> 01:25:55,520
That's the only hit and the only man to get a board for the Reds.

754
01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:58,520
Royce has gotten everybody since.

755
01:26:02,520 --> 01:26:08,520
Having retired 17 in a row with two out in the sixth inning he'll concentrate on Milner.

756
01:26:08,520 --> 01:26:10,520
Double and slide to right.

757
01:26:10,520 --> 01:26:13,520
Jerry delivers off speed for a strike in the count of one.

758
01:26:16,520 --> 01:26:19,520
Milner's the fellow who played winter ball in Valenzuela.

759
01:26:19,520 --> 01:26:27,520
And was recommended by Concepcion to bounce her down to Belanger who throws and got him on a good play.

760
01:26:27,520 --> 01:26:31,520
Mark Belanger nipping Eddie Milner at first base.

761
01:26:31,520 --> 01:26:38,520
And at the end of five and a half Jerry Royce is retired 18 in a row and the Dodgers lead 10 to one.

762
01:26:42,520 --> 01:26:45,520
Okay let's come back and check some baseball scores.

763
01:26:45,520 --> 01:26:51,520
Again as you heard a while ago and just joining us Larry Holmes remains the World Boxing Council heavyweight champion.

764
01:26:51,520 --> 01:26:54,520
Stopping Jerry Cooney in the 13th round.

765
01:26:54,520 --> 01:27:00,520
The fight was stopped about two minutes into the round as Holmes sent Cooney to the canvas for the second time in the ball.

766
01:27:00,520 --> 01:27:03,520
This is Niner and Cooney when the challenger went down.

767
01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:09,520
Again we're hoping to have some comments from the fighters or some of the people there at ringside and we'll be checking in in a few moments.

768
01:27:09,520 --> 01:27:10,520
Meanwhile baseball.

769
01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:18,520
Bruce Keeson retired the first 19 batters he faced for the California Angels who had to hang on to beat the Chicago White Sox 6 to 5.

770
01:27:18,520 --> 01:27:23,520
Keeson had a perfect game until Tony Bernisarge won out triples in the seventh inning.

771
01:27:23,520 --> 01:27:26,520
He was yanked after Bill Allman's two run double in the eighth.

772
01:27:26,520 --> 01:27:32,520
Corbett finally got the save after Harold Barnes had gotten a hit off of him.

773
01:27:32,520 --> 01:27:36,520
We'll go back to more scores right now let's go back to the Dodgers game.

774
01:27:41,520 --> 01:27:45,520
Tomorrow night it will be Bob Welk pitching for the Dodgers and Greg Harris for the Reds.

775
01:27:45,520 --> 01:27:49,520
And Sunday afternoon Burt Huston will go against Cincinnati's Bruce Bernis.

776
01:27:49,520 --> 01:27:58,520
He'll have a general admission seat on a guaranteed seat basis available for both games of the Dodgers advanced ticket office 1750 Stadium Way and a ball ticket run and mutual outlifts.

777
01:27:58,520 --> 01:27:59,520
We'll be with them.

778
01:27:59,520 --> 01:28:02,520
The Dodgers and Reds tomorrow night and Sunday afternoon.

779
01:28:06,520 --> 01:28:08,520
We're going to the bottom of the sixth inning.

780
01:28:08,520 --> 01:28:10,520
Ten runs, 12 hits.

781
01:28:10,520 --> 01:28:12,520
No errors for the Dodgers.

782
01:28:12,520 --> 01:28:13,520
One run, one hit.

783
01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:15,520
No errors for the Reds.

784
01:28:15,520 --> 01:28:17,520
The story denied it for us.

785
01:28:17,520 --> 01:28:21,520
Henry Royce pitching a gem and the Dodgers hitters having a field day.

786
01:28:23,520 --> 01:28:28,520
Jolly LeFranc went out for the 10 hitters so Bob surely will pick up.

787
01:28:28,520 --> 01:28:33,520
And in the sixth inning the Dodgers will have Pedro Guerrero who started off.

788
01:28:40,520 --> 01:28:43,520
Corbett Baranca is now at second base.

789
01:28:43,520 --> 01:28:47,520
Ron Oster takes over at shortstop.

790
01:28:47,520 --> 01:28:50,520
And Bob Shirley ready to pitch.

791
01:28:50,520 --> 01:28:54,520
Guerrero has doubled and warped twice.

792
01:28:54,520 --> 01:28:57,520
So they get some depth here on the Reds.

793
01:28:57,520 --> 01:29:02,520
And the pitcher Guerrero mounted sharply to Oster at shortstop and Ronan throws him out.

794
01:29:02,520 --> 01:29:06,520
The Dodgers get the first man and the hitter is Steve Garvey.

795
01:29:06,520 --> 01:29:09,520
They can put Baranca in the number three spot.

796
01:29:11,520 --> 01:29:14,520
And the new pitcher Bob Shirley.

797
01:29:17,520 --> 01:29:20,520
Ten to one Dodgers here in the sixth inning.

798
01:29:21,520 --> 01:29:24,520
Garvey tonight bides a right hander.

799
01:29:24,520 --> 01:29:27,520
And the Dodgers are in the sixth inning.

800
01:29:27,520 --> 01:29:30,520
And the Reds are in the sixth inning.

801
01:29:30,520 --> 01:29:32,520
Garvey tonight bides a right.

802
01:29:32,520 --> 01:29:35,520
Hitter on the single to left and a blue single to right.

803
01:29:35,520 --> 01:29:38,520
But it knocks in two runs.

804
01:29:43,520 --> 01:29:46,520
Shirley comes back with a pitch that's fouled away.

805
01:29:46,520 --> 01:29:49,520
And the count's one and one.

806
01:29:49,520 --> 01:29:54,520
The one-one pitch to Garvey.

807
01:29:54,520 --> 01:29:56,520
Shirley delivers low.

808
01:29:56,520 --> 01:29:57,520
Ball deep.

809
01:29:57,520 --> 01:29:58,520
Two and one.

810
01:29:58,520 --> 01:29:59,520
Bob Shirley of course.

811
01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:01,520
You remember when he pitched at San Diego.

812
01:30:01,520 --> 01:30:04,520
Two and one to count to Garvey.

813
01:30:04,520 --> 01:30:06,520
With one away in the sixth inning.

814
01:30:06,520 --> 01:30:07,520
Shirley delivers.

815
01:30:07,520 --> 01:30:08,520
Line outside.

816
01:30:08,520 --> 01:30:09,520
Ball three.

817
01:30:09,520 --> 01:30:10,520
Three and one.

818
01:30:10,520 --> 01:30:13,520
We need a strike on the scoreboard.

819
01:30:13,520 --> 01:30:15,520
And played up by Bob.

820
01:30:15,520 --> 01:30:19,520
Davidson is trying to correct the press box.

821
01:30:19,520 --> 01:30:20,520
Three-one pitch.

822
01:30:20,520 --> 01:30:21,520
Garvey's not ready.

823
01:30:21,520 --> 01:30:23,520
He backs out.

824
01:30:23,520 --> 01:30:27,520
Dodgers have scored in every inning tonight.

825
01:30:27,520 --> 01:30:34,520
Every time you get a game like that, which is rare, where you see a team score in every inning.

826
01:30:34,520 --> 01:30:35,520
Three-one pitch.

827
01:30:35,520 --> 01:30:37,520
Garvey takes his life.

828
01:30:37,520 --> 01:30:42,520
I always remember Charlie Feeney, the Pittsburgh writer, tongue in cheek saying,

829
01:30:42,520 --> 01:30:46,520
I don't know why, but they only let me cover one basketball game.

830
01:30:46,520 --> 01:30:48,520
Here's a three-two pitch to Garvey.

831
01:30:48,520 --> 01:30:51,520
He's felt it, but it kind of hooks out on the line out of play.

832
01:30:51,520 --> 01:30:54,520
Feeney said, I don't know why the deck was annoyed.

833
01:30:54,520 --> 01:30:56,520
He said, I thought my lead was a good one.

834
01:30:56,520 --> 01:31:00,520
He began it in covering a basketball game, scoring in every period.

835
01:31:00,520 --> 01:31:05,520
Meanwhile, the Dodgers scoring in every inning, leading ten to one.

836
01:31:05,520 --> 01:31:16,520
Ron Say on deck, and Bob Shirley, three-two pitch, a high drive in the deep left center field, and Garvey has hit it out.

837
01:31:16,520 --> 01:31:45,520
The field Garvey, in his sixth all-nighter of the year, his last all-nighter was against the Cardinals.

838
01:31:45,520 --> 01:31:52,520
And we send along a $50 book of Union All-Orders system, a carb home for boys in Los Angeles.

839
01:31:52,520 --> 01:31:55,520
One and all to counter Ron Say.

840
01:31:55,520 --> 01:32:02,520
So the Dodgers now are home run by Landrow and Garvey, continue to score in every inning, leading 11 to one.

841
01:32:02,520 --> 01:32:05,520
The pitch over for a strike, one and one.

842
01:32:05,520 --> 01:32:13,520
In checking Garvey, we told you the home run is St. Louis, and that means now that's the first home run he has hit here in Los Angeles.

843
01:32:13,520 --> 01:32:17,520
Here's the one-one pitch, and Say takes five, all-two.

844
01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:26,520
So Garvey with six home runs, and he reaches the deep left center.

845
01:32:26,520 --> 01:32:28,520
Shirley ready in the two-one pitch.

846
01:32:28,520 --> 01:32:31,520
Say hits it to the dead center, and that's where Milner is.

847
01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:38,520
So that means if Ron is still the only starter without a hit, but he does have a couple of runs batted in.

848
01:32:38,520 --> 01:32:40,520
And the batter is Mike Socha.

849
01:32:40,520 --> 01:32:45,520
For Shirley, it's only the second home run he's allowed.

850
01:32:45,520 --> 01:32:52,520
But Chodo and Sievers have allowed 18.

851
01:32:52,520 --> 01:32:57,520
And Pastore, when he gave up the home run, the Landrow is now allowed eight.

852
01:32:57,520 --> 01:32:59,520
Those you say five.

853
01:32:59,520 --> 01:33:04,520
So the Cincinnati pitchers have allowed 36 home runs.

854
01:33:04,520 --> 01:33:11,520
Dodgers pitchers have allowed 24.

855
01:33:11,520 --> 01:33:17,520
Now ball to the right side, and Germany Beranka picks it up and throws him out, and the Dodgers get a run.

856
01:33:17,520 --> 01:33:21,520
And at the end of six, Dodgers 11, Reds one.

857
01:33:21,520 --> 01:33:24,520
Now an update from ABC News. I'm John Deggans.

858
01:33:24,520 --> 01:33:31,520
A ceasefire between Israel and Syria appears to be holding in Lebanon tonight, and fighting between Israel and PLO forces is also reportedly stopped.

859
01:33:31,520 --> 01:33:37,520
U.S. intelligence sources, however, say Syria has massed some 20,000 troops near the Lebanese border.

860
01:33:37,520 --> 01:33:46,520
President Reagan arrived home from a 10-day European trip this evening, telling a huge crowd at Andrews Air Force Base his goals were accomplished and that America has the respect of its allies.

861
01:33:46,520 --> 01:33:50,520
America has a lot of friends in the world.

862
01:33:50,520 --> 01:33:54,520
Yes, there were demonstrators who didn't agree with some of our policies.

863
01:33:54,520 --> 01:34:05,520
But I can tell you that in every city, the streets were lined wherever they went with people cheering America and most of them waving American flags.

864
01:34:05,520 --> 01:34:13,520
President Reagan, Argentina clients, British war clients, flired air-to-ground missiles at an Argentine hospital ship anchored at Fort Stanley, but that neither missile hit its target.

865
01:34:13,520 --> 01:34:16,520
No reaction to that charge from the British government.

866
01:34:16,520 --> 01:34:19,520
I'm John Deggans, ABC News.

867
01:34:19,520 --> 01:34:24,520
Let's update the baseball scoreboard finals in the National League Pittsburgh. Shutout, Clenox, you're one to nothing.

868
01:34:24,520 --> 01:34:30,520
Montreal outscored the Chicago Cubs 9-8, and St. Louis down to New York Mets 7-3.

869
01:34:30,520 --> 01:34:37,520
After 5, San Diego is ahead of Houston 3-2, and after 3-1 half, it's Atlanta 5, San Francisco 1.

870
01:34:37,520 --> 01:34:43,520
Finals of the American League, Boston 6, Cleveland 2. Baltimore triumphed over New York 9-4.

871
01:34:43,520 --> 01:34:53,520
It was Toronto 2-0-1, Milwaukee 8, Detroit 6, and California beat Chicago 6-5. The next ratings after 11-1-2, Seattle 2, Kansas City 2.

872
01:34:53,520 --> 01:34:58,520
7-10 in a one-sided game. The Dodgers 11 and the Reds 1.

873
01:34:58,520 --> 01:35:00,520
And before play, here's Gary.

874
01:35:00,520 --> 01:35:05,520
2-10 for the Dodgers. Now Ron Runnickie goes to the left field, so Dusty Baker gets two rest of the night off.

875
01:35:05,520 --> 01:35:13,520
And here is Ron Oster, who's now playing a shortstop, what German Varancadou on deck, and then Dan Griesen.

876
01:35:13,520 --> 01:35:19,520
And Jerry Royce rocks into the windup, and his pick on the way is a bouncing ball to third, Sakeham's in, nice play, throws and gutting.

877
01:35:19,520 --> 01:35:25,520
And that is 19 in a row.

878
01:35:25,520 --> 01:35:37,520
Retired by Jerry Royce after the leadoff double by Milner. And here is Varancadou, German Varancadou, went into the ball, came for Concepcion in the batting order, and then moved over to second base.

879
01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:44,520
Varancadou coming on.

880
01:35:44,520 --> 01:35:56,520
And Royce after that initial leadoff double. Milner opened up with a double, took third on the sacrifice, and scored on the ground out. And that's been it for the Reds so far.

881
01:35:56,520 --> 01:36:11,520
Here's the windup and the pick on the way, there's a left-hand batter in there for a strike going one.

882
01:36:11,520 --> 01:36:25,520
Next pitch is a strike, going two.

883
01:36:25,520 --> 01:36:28,520
Going two counts of Varancas.

884
01:36:28,520 --> 01:36:43,520
The runner ball is a little high for a ball.

885
01:36:43,520 --> 01:36:54,520
It's about to pull foul off to the left out of play.

886
01:36:54,520 --> 01:36:58,520
Two counts still up there.

887
01:36:58,520 --> 01:37:05,520
We have one out in the seventh inning.

888
01:37:05,520 --> 01:37:19,520
There's a swing and a foul off his fifth right back into the screen.

889
01:37:19,520 --> 01:37:29,520
Wind drive is saved for the out. A lunging towards left the hall, that one down for the second out, two away.

890
01:37:29,520 --> 01:37:33,520
And out of the batter, Dan Griesen.

891
01:37:33,520 --> 01:37:47,520
Jerry Royce has already picked a one-hitter this year, and it was a first-inning double, given up to Artaud the Astros in a game at Dodger Stadium on the 21st of April.

892
01:37:47,520 --> 01:37:52,520
Here's the pitch on the way to Griesen, fast ball is in there.

893
01:37:52,520 --> 01:37:56,520
Second little low, one ball and no strikes.

894
01:37:56,520 --> 01:38:00,520
Royce trying to regain the form that he had earlier in the year, and the 1-0 pitch on the way.

895
01:38:00,520 --> 01:38:07,520
Griesen looks to that was a little low ball too, two balls and no strikes.

896
01:38:07,520 --> 01:38:11,520
Royce made four starts against the Reds last year, there's one and 0 against them.

897
01:38:11,520 --> 01:38:14,520
And he has a 4-1 record at home this year.

898
01:38:14,520 --> 01:38:20,520
He's trying to run that now up to five and one. Strikes on a fast ball, two and one.

899
01:38:20,520 --> 01:38:27,520
Two balls and one strike, we're in the top of the seventh inning, the Dodgers leading a breezy 11-1, they scored in every inning.

900
01:38:27,520 --> 01:38:31,520
A three-run second to the four-run fourth of the highlight inning.

901
01:38:31,520 --> 01:38:37,520
Now the two-one pitch. Griesen trying to punch misses, that is strike two, two and two.

902
01:38:37,520 --> 01:38:42,520
Griesen trying to do what he can to get on base and get something rolling, but the Reds are ten runs behind.

903
01:38:42,520 --> 01:38:46,520
The Dodgers are out of the field, they're drilled by a set number for Atlanta the other night.

904
01:38:46,520 --> 01:38:54,520
There's a breaking ball, a little bit low, ball free, and Royce is annoyed with the rookie umpire at the plate, Bob Davidson.

905
01:38:54,520 --> 01:38:58,520
He came a little side-armed to Griesen that time and thought that he had him struck out.

906
01:38:58,520 --> 01:39:03,520
A three-two pitch on the way, over the top, bouncing ball over the mound.

907
01:39:03,520 --> 01:39:09,520
And up with it is Solange, throws the first in time on the side of the side, and Royce is retired 21 in a row.

908
01:39:09,520 --> 01:39:14,520
And the score going to the bottom of the seventh inning, Dodgers 11 and the Reds 1.

909
01:39:14,520 --> 01:39:20,520
Good news here for our engineer, the old Kansas Flash Jeff Valdez.

910
01:39:20,520 --> 01:39:26,520
Mark Moorman and Dave Lucas knocked in two runs apiece, the sixth run Wichita State third inning today.

911
01:39:26,520 --> 01:39:30,520
The face of Shocker is an eight to four victory over the Longhorns of Texas,

912
01:39:30,520 --> 01:39:33,520
thus eliminating the Longhorns from the College World Series.

913
01:39:33,520 --> 01:39:38,520
The sixth run uprising came after the pre-tournament's favorite Longhorns had taken a two-to-one lead,

914
01:39:38,520 --> 01:39:41,520
and they're half of the first.

915
01:39:41,520 --> 01:39:46,520
Wichita State pitcher Brian Okers went the distance allowing nine hits and striking out seven.

916
01:39:46,520 --> 01:39:52,520
Three of those hits came on the first when Texas scored twice on Jeff Herman's single.

917
01:39:52,520 --> 01:39:59,520
Texas now 59-6, scored its final run on the fourth inning when Mike Livermore led off the inning with a single,

918
01:39:59,520 --> 01:40:02,520
later scored on Tracy Dover's single.

919
01:40:02,520 --> 01:40:10,520
So again, the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska, Wichita State has eliminated the Texas Longhorns,

920
01:40:10,520 --> 01:40:14,520
eight to four will now meet the University of Miami Hurricanes.

921
01:40:14,520 --> 01:40:17,520
They're undefeated in the playoff.

922
01:40:17,520 --> 01:40:21,520
Jan Stevenson shot her second consecutive three under par 69 Friday,

923
01:40:21,520 --> 01:40:28,520
grabbed the second round lead from the $200,000 LPGA Championship at Kings Island, Ohio.

924
01:40:28,520 --> 01:40:33,520
Steven Zunou shared the first round lead with Therese Hezzen and Beth Daniel.

925
01:40:33,520 --> 01:40:40,520
Ranner's spring of bogeyed lip holes, a 29, grew to a 36-hole score of six under par 138,

926
01:40:40,520 --> 01:40:44,520
one shot better than Daniel.

927
01:40:44,520 --> 01:40:46,520
We'll have a baseball update when we come back.

928
01:40:46,520 --> 01:40:48,520
Right now, let's go back to Jerry Doggett.

929
01:40:48,520 --> 01:40:52,520
Here's Mark Belanger at bat now to play on the bottom of the seventh inning,

930
01:40:52,520 --> 01:40:56,520
and he takes the first pitch for the Shirley down low one ball on those strikes.

931
01:40:56,520 --> 01:41:02,520
He'll land it for his dad's first base for 690, and Johnny Bench is out for the rest of the evening.

932
01:41:02,520 --> 01:41:06,520
And Belanger tops one foul along the first base line, one ball, one strike.

933
01:41:06,520 --> 01:41:10,520
Mark came into the game in the fifth inning for Billy Russell.

934
01:41:10,520 --> 01:41:13,520
He's singled and scored on Landro's triple.

935
01:41:13,520 --> 01:41:16,520
Landro has a chance to hit for the cycle tonight.

936
01:41:16,520 --> 01:41:18,520
Here's the pitch outside football, and the count is two and one.

937
01:41:18,520 --> 01:41:21,520
Kenny has a home run, a single and a triple.

938
01:41:21,520 --> 01:41:23,520
He'll be up here one more turn.

939
01:41:23,520 --> 01:41:25,520
He's eliciting an extra day looking for a double.

940
01:41:25,520 --> 01:41:27,520
Belanger bounces a foul.

941
01:41:27,520 --> 01:41:30,520
Curveball was in on the fifth and Mark fouled it away.

942
01:41:30,520 --> 01:41:33,520
Two and two is the count.

943
01:41:33,520 --> 01:41:35,520
Two balls, two strikes.

944
01:41:35,520 --> 01:41:37,520
The game is in the bottom of the seventh inning.

945
01:41:37,520 --> 01:41:40,520
The Dodgers have scored in everything.

946
01:41:40,520 --> 01:41:49,520
And it's not that poor game losing streak.

947
01:41:49,520 --> 01:41:51,520
Next pitch.

948
01:41:51,520 --> 01:41:57,520
He's out of the way, count holding it two and two.

949
01:41:57,520 --> 01:42:00,520
Two balls, two strikes.

950
01:42:00,520 --> 01:42:01,520
Certainly delivers.

951
01:42:01,520 --> 01:42:04,520
Belanger fouls another one back in the count holding it two and two.

952
01:42:04,520 --> 01:42:08,520
Jerry Royce is out on deck.

953
01:42:08,520 --> 01:42:11,520
Royce has been absolutely magnificent tonight,

954
01:42:11,520 --> 01:42:14,520
and he pitched a good game in St. Louis last time out.

955
01:42:14,520 --> 01:42:16,520
So that brings smiles to the face of Tommy Lasorda,

956
01:42:16,520 --> 01:42:18,520
who's been a little bit beleaguered lately.

957
01:42:18,520 --> 01:42:20,520
The Dodgers have been down in the gold room.

958
01:42:20,520 --> 01:42:22,520
He can get Royce and Utsu spread away.

959
01:42:22,520 --> 01:42:24,520
That will really be a big help.

960
01:42:24,520 --> 01:42:25,520
Here's the free two-pitch.

961
01:42:25,520 --> 01:42:27,520
Mark lines one to left field.

962
01:42:27,520 --> 01:42:29,520
Coming up the veil makes the catch for the out.

963
01:42:29,520 --> 01:42:31,520
Belanger hit it hard but right to the left fielder.

964
01:42:31,520 --> 01:42:32,520
One down.

965
01:42:32,520 --> 01:42:33,520
And here's Jerry Royce.

966
01:42:33,520 --> 01:42:49,520
Royce and Wysi are 21 in a row after a leadoff double to Milner.

967
01:42:49,520 --> 01:42:53,520
Royce is at it, and Royce tonight has single score to run sacrifice.

968
01:42:53,520 --> 01:42:57,520
He had two hits in his last game at St. Louis, including an RBI.

969
01:42:57,520 --> 01:42:59,520
Backs away for fastball on the knuckles.

970
01:42:59,520 --> 01:43:01,520
One ball and no strikes.

971
01:43:01,520 --> 01:43:03,520
One-oh to count.

972
01:43:03,520 --> 01:43:06,520
Royce backing up.

973
01:43:06,520 --> 01:43:09,520
Bob Shirley out of Oklahoma into the windup.

974
01:43:09,520 --> 01:43:13,520
And the pitch to Royce in there for a strike and it's one and one.

975
01:43:13,520 --> 01:43:14,520
One ball, one strike.

976
01:43:14,520 --> 01:43:17,520
Dodgers 11 and the Reds have one.

977
01:43:17,520 --> 01:43:20,520
And we're in the bottom of the seventh inning.

978
01:43:20,520 --> 01:43:24,520
Royce swings at a fastball, one and two.

979
01:43:24,520 --> 01:43:30,520
Surely for a number of years with San Diego, then with St. Louis and now with the Reds.

980
01:43:30,520 --> 01:43:32,520
The one-two pitch on the way.

981
01:43:32,520 --> 01:43:35,520
Royce puts it one low inside ball, two-two and two.

982
01:43:35,520 --> 01:43:38,520
Two balls and two strikes.

983
01:43:38,520 --> 01:43:44,520
The Dodgers 13 hits on deck of Steve's back.

984
01:43:44,520 --> 01:43:51,520
Now the two-two pitch, line fouled into the lower stands behind the auxiliary scoreboard in left field.

985
01:43:51,520 --> 01:44:00,520
So Royce was around late into the two-and-two count still up there.

986
01:44:00,520 --> 01:44:02,520
Two-and-two to Jerry.

987
01:44:02,520 --> 01:44:04,520
Shirley ready in the pitch.

988
01:44:04,520 --> 01:44:07,520
Took him out on a high fastball.

989
01:44:07,520 --> 01:44:10,520
Shirley gets a strike out his first of the game.

990
01:44:10,520 --> 01:44:14,520
And as Royce goes back to the bench, a ripple of applause for the fans.

991
01:44:14,520 --> 01:44:16,520
And here's Steve's back.

992
01:44:16,520 --> 01:44:19,520
He's walked, rounded out for an RBI and single.

993
01:44:19,520 --> 01:44:22,520
Sacksy is one for three in the game.

994
01:44:22,520 --> 01:44:28,520
And his batting average is at 300.

995
01:44:28,520 --> 01:44:34,520
Sack's at 71-base-if.

996
01:44:34,520 --> 01:44:38,520
And that leads to the league.

997
01:44:38,520 --> 01:44:43,520
Here's the pitch for a strike going one.

998
01:44:43,520 --> 01:44:46,520
Meanwhile, Atlanta is winning easily at San Francisco.

999
01:44:46,520 --> 01:44:49,520
So the Dodgers not making up any ground on the Braves,

1000
01:44:49,520 --> 01:44:52,520
but they're at least getting a lot of satisfaction of snapping their three.

1001
01:44:52,520 --> 01:44:57,520
Fastball is a strike going two to the countdown.

1002
01:44:57,520 --> 01:45:02,520
Sacksy, 20 RBIs on the year.

1003
01:45:02,520 --> 01:45:03,520
And the pitch.

1004
01:45:03,520 --> 01:45:05,520
Taken outside for ball.

1005
01:45:05,520 --> 01:45:09,520
Landrell has four RBIs tonight.

1006
01:45:09,520 --> 01:45:12,520
And that gives him 17 for the year.

1007
01:45:12,520 --> 01:45:15,520
Bob Shirley working a one-and-two pitch on the way.

1008
01:45:15,520 --> 01:45:19,520
Sack loops a foul into the fans behind home plate.

1009
01:45:19,520 --> 01:45:27,520
And now the one-and-two.

1010
01:45:27,520 --> 01:45:30,520
One ball, two strikes with two men out.

1011
01:45:30,520 --> 01:45:32,520
Here's the pitch.

1012
01:45:32,520 --> 01:45:34,520
Breaking ball right on his belt.

1013
01:45:34,520 --> 01:45:36,520
And a two-and-two.

1014
01:45:36,520 --> 01:45:38,520
Sacksy had to pull out of there on that one.

1015
01:45:38,520 --> 01:45:42,520
That surely gave him a pretty good slider in sight.

1016
01:45:42,520 --> 01:45:50,520
Two balls, two strikes, two outs.

1017
01:45:50,520 --> 01:45:53,520
And the windup man, the pitch on the way.

1018
01:45:53,520 --> 01:45:55,520
And it's George Stott's hot-file.

1019
01:45:55,520 --> 01:45:57,520
It's turned aside as retired.

1020
01:45:57,520 --> 01:46:00,520
So for the first time tonight, the Dodgers go out in order.

1021
01:46:00,520 --> 01:46:02,520
And the score at the end of seven innings,

1022
01:46:02,520 --> 01:46:04,520
the Reds have one.

1023
01:46:04,520 --> 01:46:06,520
Again on the big fight at Las Vegas on Friday night,

1024
01:46:06,520 --> 01:46:10,520
Larry Holmes scored a 13th round CKO over Jerry Cooney

1025
01:46:10,520 --> 01:46:13,520
to retain the WBC Heavyweight crown.

1026
01:46:13,520 --> 01:46:15,520
The moment in Las Vegas was stopped with eight seconds left

1027
01:46:15,520 --> 01:46:18,520
in round 13 as the Holmes explored Cooney

1028
01:46:18,520 --> 01:46:20,520
for the second time in the fight.

1029
01:46:20,520 --> 01:46:23,520
Cooney got up, cut over his left eye and his nose

1030
01:46:23,520 --> 01:46:26,520
were reopened by a barrage from Holmes.

1031
01:46:26,520 --> 01:46:28,520
Referee Mills blamed and stopped the fight.

1032
01:46:28,520 --> 01:46:31,520
Holmes had retained his crown.

1033
01:46:31,520 --> 01:46:33,520
Holmes sent Cooney to the canvas in the second round

1034
01:46:33,520 --> 01:46:35,520
with a right but thunder challenger.

1035
01:46:35,520 --> 01:46:38,520
Holmes also opened the chest over Cooney's left eye and nose

1036
01:46:38,520 --> 01:46:40,520
in round six and seven.

1037
01:46:40,520 --> 01:46:42,520
The victory is the 40th of Holmes' professional career

1038
01:46:42,520 --> 01:46:46,520
without a defeat, which is 30th by knockout.

1039
01:46:46,520 --> 01:46:50,520
It's the 12th time a 32-year-old fighter from Eastern Pennsylvania

1040
01:46:50,520 --> 01:46:53,520
has descended the crown with 11 of those wins by KO.

1041
01:46:53,520 --> 01:46:56,520
For the 25-year-old Cooney from Huntington, New York,

1042
01:46:56,520 --> 01:46:59,520
it was his first pro-loss in 26 bouts.

1043
01:46:59,520 --> 01:47:01,520
The fight took place at the makeshift stadium

1044
01:47:01,520 --> 01:47:04,520
at Caesar's Colous Hotel in Las Vegas.

1045
01:47:04,520 --> 01:47:08,520
Well, we've played seven innings of the ball game.

1046
01:47:08,520 --> 01:47:11,520
For the Dodgers now, we have a change in right field.

1047
01:47:11,520 --> 01:47:14,520
Darrell Thomas will go in for Guerrero.

1048
01:47:14,520 --> 01:47:16,520
Thomas in right field.

1049
01:47:16,520 --> 01:47:19,520
That change will be made as we go to the eighth inning.

1050
01:47:19,520 --> 01:47:23,520
And the attendance tonight is 37,586.

1051
01:47:23,520 --> 01:47:27,520
And tomorrow night, it will be Greg Maris, local product,

1052
01:47:27,520 --> 01:47:30,520
coming in to the Dodgers stadium to go against Bob Welk.

1053
01:47:30,520 --> 01:47:32,520
And on Sunday, it will be Bruce Perenny

1054
01:47:32,520 --> 01:47:35,520
for the Reds against Virgil.

1055
01:47:35,520 --> 01:47:36,520
11 to 1 Dodgers lead.

1056
01:47:36,520 --> 01:47:37,520
Ain't any more play.

1057
01:47:37,520 --> 01:47:38,520
Let's go back to them.

1058
01:47:38,520 --> 01:47:41,520
All right, Jerry, as some of the regulars being rested

1059
01:47:41,520 --> 01:47:46,520
on each side in this runaway 11 to 1 Dodger game,

1060
01:47:46,520 --> 01:47:53,520
Mike Vail, Ben Raphael Landisoy, and Paul Householder.

1061
01:47:53,520 --> 01:47:56,520
So the Dodgers were scrambled by Atlanta 11 to 5,

1062
01:47:56,520 --> 01:48:02,520
and now they come back to knock the wheels off the Reds 11 to 1.

1063
01:48:02,520 --> 01:48:05,520
Mike Vail stuck it out and ground it out.

1064
01:48:05,520 --> 01:48:11,520
Waves at a pitch and doesn't get it 0 and 1.

1065
01:48:11,520 --> 01:48:16,520
The Cincinnati Reds came in here with 32 defeats.

1066
01:48:16,520 --> 01:48:20,520
One reason why, of course, they're in the cellar in the west.

1067
01:48:20,520 --> 01:48:22,520
Here's the Psych 1 fish on the way.

1068
01:48:22,520 --> 01:48:24,520
Lifted to Darrell Thomas in right field.

1069
01:48:24,520 --> 01:48:30,520
He is right there, puts it in the basket, runaway.

1070
01:48:30,520 --> 01:48:33,520
And Raphael Landisoy coming up.

1071
01:48:33,520 --> 01:48:35,520
The two great teams, the Reds had.

1072
01:48:35,520 --> 01:48:36,520
I mean, they really did.

1073
01:48:36,520 --> 01:48:40,520
They were back in 1975 and 76.

1074
01:48:40,520 --> 01:48:48,520
In 1976, the Reds didn't lose their 32nd game until July 10th.

1075
01:48:48,520 --> 01:48:52,520
And in 1975, the team had played that electrifying World Series

1076
01:48:52,520 --> 01:48:54,520
with the Boston Reds on.

1077
01:48:54,520 --> 01:49:00,520
They didn't lose their 32nd game that year until July the 20th.

1078
01:49:00,520 --> 01:49:04,520
So they are very much off their feet, and you can understand why.

1079
01:49:04,520 --> 01:49:09,520
The older players have gotten much older, and they lost their outfield.

1080
01:49:09,520 --> 01:49:13,520
The fish to Landisoy a strike, an account on one.

1081
01:49:13,520 --> 01:49:16,520
I mean, Foster and Griffey and Collins go.

1082
01:49:16,520 --> 01:49:19,520
It's pretty tough to replace them right away.

1083
01:49:19,520 --> 01:49:22,520
The Psych 1 fish on the way, Kirkball hit over the mound,

1084
01:49:22,520 --> 01:49:27,520
charging it at Saks backhand, planks it up, and throws out Landisoy.

1085
01:49:27,520 --> 01:49:31,520
So that's 23 in a row, grid fired by Jerry Royce.

1086
01:49:31,520 --> 01:49:33,520
Twenty-three.

1087
01:49:33,520 --> 01:49:36,520
Give it all up over.

1088
01:49:36,520 --> 01:49:38,520
Boy, would there be some drama in this game tonight

1089
01:49:38,520 --> 01:49:41,520
had Eddie Milner not opened up the game with a double.

1090
01:49:41,520 --> 01:49:45,520
Royce has gotten everybody tense.

1091
01:49:45,520 --> 01:49:47,520
Householder grounded out, fly to right.

1092
01:49:47,520 --> 01:49:53,520
Ball is over two, hitting 167.

1093
01:49:53,520 --> 01:49:57,520
And the fish to Paul, Kirkball for a strike.

1094
01:49:57,520 --> 01:50:02,520
Householder weighs 180, so he's having one of those nightmare years

1095
01:50:02,520 --> 01:50:05,520
where he is in truth not hitting his weight.

1096
01:50:05,520 --> 01:50:07,520
For a strike, one fish on the way.

1097
01:50:07,520 --> 01:50:09,520
He takes in the dirt, one ball, one strike.

1098
01:50:09,520 --> 01:50:14,520
All part of the seasoning process, despite all your glistening credentials

1099
01:50:14,520 --> 01:50:17,520
in the minor leagues, you finally come to the big leagues,

1100
01:50:17,520 --> 01:50:20,520
and the act that is applied.

1101
01:50:20,520 --> 01:50:22,520
Some hold up and some never do.

1102
01:50:22,520 --> 01:50:28,520
One-one fish on the way, fouled off, one and two to count.

1103
01:50:28,520 --> 01:50:32,520
We were talking at the very start of the game about how,

1104
01:50:32,520 --> 01:50:36,520
despite how poorly the Dodgers have been playing,

1105
01:50:36,520 --> 01:50:40,520
we're saying how quickly they could turn it around.

1106
01:50:40,520 --> 01:50:44,520
Royce could come back and find the groove, the one-two fish

1107
01:50:44,520 --> 01:50:46,520
is a ground foul outside of third.

1108
01:50:46,520 --> 01:50:49,520
If Hooton is okay, the rest of them think it'll be okay.

1109
01:50:49,520 --> 01:50:54,520
Ballums well and welts.

1110
01:50:54,520 --> 01:50:56,520
Of course, the 11 runs, 13 hits tonight,

1111
01:50:56,520 --> 01:50:59,520
that will really puff up the clubhouse.

1112
01:50:59,520 --> 01:51:01,520
Now the one-two fish on the way.

1113
01:51:01,520 --> 01:51:04,520
Royce delivers half-swing, strike three.

1114
01:51:04,520 --> 01:51:07,520
24 in a row, retired by Jerry Royce.

1115
01:51:07,520 --> 01:51:09,520
He has allowed the leadoff double.

1116
01:51:09,520 --> 01:51:13,520
At the end of seven and a half, down into 11, red one.

1117
01:51:13,520 --> 01:51:15,520
Royce Floyd is the leader.

1118
01:51:15,520 --> 01:51:18,520
After Friday's second round of the Memphis Draw Classic,

1119
01:51:18,520 --> 01:51:21,520
Floyd came up with a four under par 68 today,

1120
01:51:21,520 --> 01:51:25,520
and is in at nine under par at 135 with 36 balls.

1121
01:51:25,520 --> 01:51:28,520
That's three shots better than runner-up Mark Lyle,

1122
01:51:28,520 --> 01:51:31,520
who started the day trying for the lead with Floyd,

1123
01:51:31,520 --> 01:51:33,520
but could only come up with a 71.

1124
01:51:33,520 --> 01:51:37,520
Jim Nelford, Hal Sutton, and Mike Pollan are third,

1125
01:51:37,520 --> 01:51:39,520
and he's going to find Floyd.

1126
01:51:39,520 --> 01:51:42,520
Nelford at a nine under par 63,

1127
01:51:42,520 --> 01:51:46,520
including a record-trying six under par 30 on the back nine.

1128
01:51:46,520 --> 01:51:48,520
And at Marlboro, Massachusetts,

1129
01:51:48,520 --> 01:51:52,520
Art Wall fired a course record-trying five under par 66 Friday.

1130
01:51:52,520 --> 01:51:54,520
The catcher, Arnold Palmer,

1131
01:51:54,520 --> 01:51:56,520
was here as the lead at the two rounds

1132
01:51:56,520 --> 01:52:00,520
of the $150,000 Marlboro Classic Senior Tournament.

1133
01:52:00,520 --> 01:52:04,520
First round co-leader Sam Snead has qualified himself

1134
01:52:04,520 --> 01:52:06,520
after signing an incorrect scorecard.

1135
01:52:06,520 --> 01:52:08,520
Snead, who had turned in a 74,

1136
01:52:08,520 --> 01:52:13,520
gave himself a par four in the 15 hole instead of a bogey five.

1137
01:52:13,520 --> 01:52:15,520
Charlie Ones, a club pro from Santa Florida,

1138
01:52:15,520 --> 01:52:18,520
and Billy Casper at 141.

1139
01:52:18,520 --> 01:52:21,520
Even par 142, along with defending champion Bob Goldie,

1140
01:52:21,520 --> 01:52:24,520
are Peter Thompson and Bill Johnson.

1141
01:52:24,520 --> 01:52:27,520
The Watkins Glen Grind Free Association announced Friday

1142
01:52:27,520 --> 01:52:30,520
that no summer auto races will be held this year

1143
01:52:30,520 --> 01:52:32,520
at the world-famous Road Racing Circuit.

1144
01:52:32,520 --> 01:52:35,520
The Association's executive director, Malcolm Carey,

1145
01:52:35,520 --> 01:52:38,520
claimed the cancellation on continuing financial

1146
01:52:38,520 --> 01:52:40,520
and legal problems for the circuit

1147
01:52:40,520 --> 01:52:42,520
in the Finger Lakes region of New York.

1148
01:52:45,520 --> 01:52:47,520
At the bottom of the eighth inning,

1149
01:52:47,520 --> 01:52:49,520
the Dodgers are 11 and the Reds 1.

1150
01:52:49,520 --> 01:52:51,520
And we'll pause the state identification.

1151
01:52:51,520 --> 01:52:54,520
This is the Los Angeles Dodgers Radio Network.

1152
01:52:54,520 --> 01:53:06,520
And this is the American Forces Radio and Television Service.

1153
01:53:06,520 --> 01:53:08,520
In the eighth inning, Kenny Landrow,

1154
01:53:08,520 --> 01:53:11,520
having his first big game in quite a while,

1155
01:53:11,520 --> 01:53:16,520
he has a single, a triple, and a home run.

1156
01:53:16,520 --> 01:53:19,520
And not surely delivered in the first one-strike,

1157
01:53:19,520 --> 01:53:25,520
on deck is Ron Renneke and Engel Comin.

1158
01:53:25,520 --> 01:53:27,520
Now there's like one fish on the way.

1159
01:53:27,520 --> 01:53:29,520
There's a five-holder right field.

1160
01:53:29,520 --> 01:53:32,520
A householder is there, and that'll do it to Landrow.

1161
01:53:32,520 --> 01:53:34,520
So one out in the eighth inning.

1162
01:53:34,520 --> 01:53:36,520
And Ron Renneke will be coming up.

1163
01:53:36,520 --> 01:53:38,520
Ron Renneke.

1164
01:53:38,520 --> 01:53:40,520
A little cooler.

1165
01:53:40,520 --> 01:53:44,520
Renneke hitting 263.

1166
01:53:44,520 --> 01:53:48,520
Ron will hit right into the court against Curley.

1167
01:53:48,520 --> 01:53:52,520
And his average of 263 is based primarily on his success

1168
01:53:52,520 --> 01:53:54,520
at the left-handed batter.

1169
01:53:54,520 --> 01:53:57,520
Right-handed, he's only hitting 150.

1170
01:53:57,520 --> 01:54:02,520
The pitch join, a little high ball on it, one and all.

1171
01:54:02,520 --> 01:54:06,520
The Dodgers, having a four-game losing streak.

1172
01:54:06,520 --> 01:54:09,520
One old fish, Ron Renneke, is rounded up one third,

1173
01:54:09,520 --> 01:54:10,520
right behind the badgers.

1174
01:54:10,520 --> 01:54:14,520
Landis-Groyde, throwing out.

1175
01:54:14,520 --> 01:54:16,520
Two out of the eighth inning.

1176
01:54:16,520 --> 01:54:21,520
Engel Comin finishing up for Pedro Guerrero.

1177
01:54:21,520 --> 01:54:25,520
Tonight, Sacks went one for four.

1178
01:54:25,520 --> 01:54:28,520
Landrow had a single triple and home run.

1179
01:54:28,520 --> 01:54:31,520
Dusty Baker had one hit.

1180
01:54:31,520 --> 01:54:33,520
He went one for five.

1181
01:54:33,520 --> 01:54:35,520
One for four.

1182
01:54:35,520 --> 01:54:38,520
Guerrero had a double and a couple of walks.

1183
01:54:38,520 --> 01:54:42,520
Barby, two singles and a home run.

1184
01:54:42,520 --> 01:54:44,520
Say is the only man without a hit,

1185
01:54:44,520 --> 01:54:47,520
but he has a couple of RBI's on an infield out

1186
01:54:47,520 --> 01:54:49,520
and a scoring five-all.

1187
01:54:49,520 --> 01:54:51,520
Sosha has one hit.

1188
01:54:51,520 --> 01:54:55,520
Russell had a base hit and Blander had one.

1189
01:54:55,520 --> 01:54:57,520
The pitch to Thomas Fishing, ball one, one and all.

1190
01:54:57,520 --> 01:55:00,520
And Jerry Royce has a base hit.

1191
01:55:00,520 --> 01:55:02,520
The one old fish on the way.

1192
01:55:02,520 --> 01:55:04,520
And Darrell, 20 to hit the right field.

1193
01:55:04,520 --> 01:55:05,520
Householder is there.

1194
01:55:05,520 --> 01:55:07,520
So the Dodgers go quietly.

1195
01:55:07,520 --> 01:55:10,520
And at the end of eighth, the Dodgers 11, red one.

1196
01:55:10,520 --> 01:55:12,520
Final score in San Diego.

1197
01:55:12,520 --> 01:55:15,520
The Dodgers have defeated Houston at final six to two.

1198
01:55:15,520 --> 01:55:17,520
They did it with six runs, seven hits and three errors,

1199
01:55:17,520 --> 01:55:20,520
while the Astros had two runs, six hits and no misuse.

1200
01:55:20,520 --> 01:55:22,520
Lawler is the winner.

1201
01:55:22,520 --> 01:55:24,520
He's now six and one.

1202
01:55:24,520 --> 01:55:27,520
Sutton, a loser, seven and three.

1203
01:55:27,520 --> 01:55:29,520
So a step for the Atlanta-San Francisco game.

1204
01:55:29,520 --> 01:55:30,520
All finals are in.

1205
01:55:30,520 --> 01:55:33,520
That ball game after six.

1206
01:55:33,520 --> 01:55:37,520
It is Atlanta five and San Francisco three.

1207
01:55:37,520 --> 01:55:39,520
We'll check the standings in a few minutes

1208
01:55:39,520 --> 01:55:42,520
and see how things look at the moment.

1209
01:55:42,520 --> 01:55:45,520
Again, through the other games played earlier,

1210
01:55:45,520 --> 01:55:48,520
Jerry Martin's RBI single with 12th innings

1211
01:55:48,520 --> 01:55:50,520
gave the Kansas City Royals a 3-2 victory

1212
01:55:50,520 --> 01:55:52,520
over the Seattle Mariners.

1213
01:55:52,520 --> 01:55:55,520
In Milwaukee, Paul Molotov scored the go-ahead run

1214
01:55:55,520 --> 01:55:57,520
on Kirk Gibson's wild throw of the eighth

1215
01:55:57,520 --> 01:55:59,520
to spark the Milwaukee Brewers

1216
01:55:59,520 --> 01:56:02,520
to an eight to six victory over the Detroit Tigers.

1217
01:56:02,520 --> 01:56:04,520
In the American League at Baltimore,

1218
01:56:04,520 --> 01:56:05,520
Gary Runnick and Cal Ripken

1219
01:56:05,520 --> 01:56:08,520
blasted first hitting homers back to back

1220
01:56:08,520 --> 01:56:09,520
to the Baltimore Orioles

1221
01:56:09,520 --> 01:56:12,520
down the New York Yankees nine to four.

1222
01:56:12,520 --> 01:56:14,520
Well, we come to the ninth inning

1223
01:56:14,520 --> 01:56:18,520
where the Dodgers leading the Reds 11 to one.

1224
01:56:18,520 --> 01:56:20,520
Jerry Royce tuning up,

1225
01:56:20,520 --> 01:56:23,520
and of course he's retired 24 in a row.

1226
01:56:23,520 --> 01:56:25,520
But he is guy of the perfecto

1227
01:56:25,520 --> 01:56:28,520
because he gave up the leadoff double to Eddie Milner.

1228
01:56:28,520 --> 01:56:30,520
He's got everybody after the double.

1229
01:56:30,520 --> 01:56:34,520
He'll be pitching to Alex Berlino,

1230
01:56:34,520 --> 01:56:40,520
who will have a hitter for Bob Shirley.

1231
01:56:40,520 --> 01:56:42,520
Larry Bittner is going to come out on deck,

1232
01:56:42,520 --> 01:56:46,520
so Bittner will be hitting for Shirley.

1233
01:56:46,520 --> 01:56:48,520
And then it will be Ed Milner.

1234
01:56:48,520 --> 01:56:50,520
Trevino has grounded a short

1235
01:56:50,520 --> 01:56:52,520
and fouled out to Royce.

1236
01:56:52,520 --> 01:56:54,520
Right-hand-hitting catcher, 0 for 2,

1237
01:56:54,520 --> 01:56:59,520
waves at a fastball in the count of 0 and 1.

1238
01:56:59,520 --> 01:57:01,520
Royce with six strikeouts tonight

1239
01:57:01,520 --> 01:57:03,520
and has not walked about it.

1240
01:57:03,520 --> 01:57:06,520
Yeah, he ended up winding up now to strike one pitch,

1241
01:57:06,520 --> 01:57:07,520
and that's popped in the air.

1242
01:57:07,520 --> 01:57:10,520
Sacks going out to get it, calling that he has it,

1243
01:57:10,520 --> 01:57:12,520
and he's true to his word.

1244
01:57:12,520 --> 01:57:19,520
25 in a row, retired by Jerry Royce.

1245
01:57:19,520 --> 01:57:23,520
Now Larry Bittner will be coming up to bat for Bob Shirley.

1246
01:57:23,520 --> 01:57:36,520
And the second hitter for Cincinnati, batting for Shirley, number 23, Larry Bittner.

1247
01:57:36,520 --> 01:57:40,520
Bittner is the first 10-hitter used by John McNamara.

1248
01:57:40,520 --> 01:57:41,520
He's hitting 3.08.

1249
01:57:41,520 --> 01:57:48,520
He is two home runs, 10 RBIs, better in left-hand batter.

1250
01:57:48,520 --> 01:57:51,520
When Jickey struck out, Walker grounded out,

1251
01:57:51,520 --> 01:57:54,520
and now here's Larry Bittner.

1252
01:57:54,520 --> 01:57:58,520
So Royce with one out on the ninth inning and breezing 11 to 1.

1253
01:57:58,520 --> 01:58:00,520
Jerry into the windup and delivers.

1254
01:58:00,520 --> 01:58:03,520
Bittner takes the strike in the count of 0 and 1.

1255
01:58:03,520 --> 01:58:06,520
Larry has played with the Washington Saniteus,

1256
01:58:06,520 --> 01:58:10,520
Texas Rangers, Montreal, the Cubs, and Cincinnati.

1257
01:58:10,520 --> 01:58:12,520
He takes inside.

1258
01:58:12,520 --> 01:58:14,520
Bittner will be 35.

1259
01:58:14,520 --> 01:58:15,520
He's from Iowa.

1260
01:58:15,520 --> 01:58:23,520
He's from Pocahontas, Iowa.

1261
01:58:23,520 --> 01:58:26,520
The pitch to Bittner is low ball two, two and one.

1262
01:58:26,520 --> 01:58:30,520
Larry Bittner is the only free agent ever signed by the Reds

1263
01:58:30,520 --> 01:58:34,520
through the re-increase draft system.

1264
01:58:34,520 --> 01:58:43,520
And they got him after he left Chicago at the end of the 80s season.

1265
01:58:43,520 --> 01:58:48,520
Bittner pitched in one game five years ago for the Cubs.

1266
01:58:48,520 --> 01:58:50,520
Swing doesn't get it to him, too.

1267
01:58:50,520 --> 01:58:53,520
Now to do, he worked an inning in the third.

1268
01:58:53,520 --> 01:58:58,520
He walked one, struck out three, gave up five hits,

1269
01:58:58,520 --> 01:59:00,520
and was charged with six earned runs.

1270
01:59:00,520 --> 01:59:03,520
The 2-2 pitch strikes three, call.

1271
01:59:03,520 --> 01:59:09,520
Twenty-six in a row, retired by Royce.

1272
01:59:09,520 --> 01:59:15,520
But again, we don't have to repeat in case there's some folks just picking up the game.

1273
01:59:15,520 --> 01:59:19,520
Eddie Millner opened up the game with a double to left,

1274
01:59:19,520 --> 01:59:22,520
and Royce has gotten everybody since.

1275
01:59:22,520 --> 01:59:25,520
Twenty-six consecutive batters.

1276
01:59:25,520 --> 01:59:30,520
But Jerry's trying for his second one-hitter of the year.

1277
01:59:30,520 --> 01:59:35,520
And he gave up a double in the first inning in that game to Art Howe of Houston.

1278
01:59:35,520 --> 01:59:38,520
Royce is high, one ball and no strikes.

1279
01:59:38,520 --> 01:59:43,520
It would also be the fifth one-hitter in the league this year, pitch outside.

1280
01:59:43,520 --> 01:59:48,520
There would be two by Royce, and Noll, Hooten, and Eichelberger.

1281
01:59:48,520 --> 01:59:52,520
And it would be the second time this year the Reds have been one-hitted.

1282
01:59:52,520 --> 01:59:55,520
Dickie Noll's of the Cubs did that back in April.

1283
01:59:55,520 --> 02:00:03,520
Here's the 2-0 pitch, and Millner drives it deep down the right field line, fouling out of play.

1284
02:00:03,520 --> 02:00:12,520
2-1-1 to Ed Millner.

1285
02:00:12,520 --> 02:00:15,520
Millner has had two four-hit games this year.

1286
02:00:15,520 --> 02:00:18,520
He's doing pretty well, seeing limited service.

1287
02:00:18,520 --> 02:00:22,520
And Royce comes to him 2-1, missed outside and high ball three.

1288
02:00:22,520 --> 02:00:27,520
Ironically, Millner didn't figure to play tonight.

1289
02:00:27,520 --> 02:00:32,520
But Cesar Cedeno injured his hand last night, and he couldn't use it tonight.

1290
02:00:32,520 --> 02:00:34,520
And Millner got the hit.

1291
02:00:34,520 --> 02:00:36,520
Ground ball to the right side.

1292
02:00:36,520 --> 02:00:38,520
That passes over to Garvey.

1293
02:00:38,520 --> 02:00:43,520
27 consecutive outs after the leadoff double.

1294
02:00:43,520 --> 02:00:46,520
A magnificent one-hitter by Jerry Royce.

1295
02:00:46,520 --> 02:00:48,520
We'll have the totals after this.

1296
02:00:48,520 --> 02:00:51,520
Okay, let's look at the standings now before we go back for the wrap-up,

1297
02:00:51,520 --> 02:00:53,520
a real slaughter for the Dodgers.

1298
02:00:53,520 --> 02:00:56,520
You're still in the Reds tonight, as you earn 11-1.

1299
02:00:56,520 --> 02:01:00,520
For Los Angeles, they go up to 28-31.

1300
02:01:00,520 --> 02:01:02,520
The Braves are still winning their ball game.

1301
02:01:02,520 --> 02:01:06,520
They lead it actually west, two games over San Diego, eight over the Dodgers.

1302
02:01:06,520 --> 02:01:10,520
And the last thing we have learned from San Francisco's Calisic Park,

1303
02:01:10,520 --> 02:01:15,520
middle of the seventh, that the Braves are winning over the Giants, 5-3.

1304
02:01:15,520 --> 02:01:19,520
San Diego, in the meantime, defeated Houston 6-2.

1305
02:01:19,520 --> 02:01:21,520
A lot of the winners, Sutton the loser.

1306
02:01:21,520 --> 02:01:24,520
So the Fidres, at the moment, are 32-23,

1307
02:01:24,520 --> 02:01:28,520
and they trail Atlanta by game and a half in the senior circuit west.

1308
02:01:28,520 --> 02:01:30,520
The Cardinals beat the Mets 7-3.

1309
02:01:30,520 --> 02:01:34,520
They went into the evening's action leading in the east by 2-1 half

1310
02:01:34,520 --> 02:01:39,520
over the Philadelphia Phillies, who lost to Pittsburgh 1-0 to the Cardinals,

1311
02:01:39,520 --> 02:01:42,520
a 3-1 half game lead over the Phillies.

1312
02:01:42,520 --> 02:01:45,520
Montreal won 9-8, so they're tied for second with Philadelphia.

1313
02:01:45,520 --> 02:01:47,520
Here's Dempsey again.

1314
02:01:47,520 --> 02:01:51,520
The totals for the Dodgers, 11 runs, 13 hits.

1315
02:01:51,520 --> 02:01:53,520
The Reds, one run, one hit.

1316
02:01:53,520 --> 02:01:57,520
That was the leadoff double by Milner, and then Royce retired 27 to strike you the batter.

1317
02:01:57,520 --> 02:02:00,520
Royce, naturally, the winner, and Frank Pastore, the loser.

1318
02:02:00,520 --> 02:02:04,520
Tomorrow night at 7-0-5, Bob Welch and Greg Harris.

1319
02:02:04,520 --> 02:02:08,520
Once again, the final score, Dodgers, 11, Reds, one.

1320
02:02:08,520 --> 02:02:16,520
Now for Jerry Doggan and Ross Porter, this is Vince Cully inviting you to stay tuned for the Folk Team show coming right up.

1321
02:02:16,520 --> 02:02:20,520
Let's check on some other news and sports before we wrap things up.

1322
02:02:20,520 --> 02:02:23,520
Before we do that, details of the Montreal game.

1323
02:02:23,520 --> 02:02:29,520
Jim Raines cracked a two-run double in the eighth inning to get Mark Riddall a 9-8 victory over Chicago,

1324
02:02:29,520 --> 02:02:33,520
extending the Cubs' losing streak to 11 games.

1325
02:02:33,520 --> 02:02:37,520
Keith Morland's free run, Homer, had highlighted a five-run pop of the eighth inning

1326
02:02:37,520 --> 02:02:40,520
that put the Cubs in front 8-7.

1327
02:02:40,520 --> 02:02:45,520
With the bases loaded, Raines doubled off the loser, Bill Campbell, scoring two runs.

1328
02:02:45,520 --> 02:02:49,520
Woody Freiman, the victim of Morland-Homer, was the winner.

1329
02:02:49,520 --> 02:02:53,520
Jeff Reardon got the save.

1330
02:02:53,520 --> 02:02:59,520
In tennis news, top-skater Jose Luis Clark of Argentina led the way into the semifinals of the city of Venice,

1331
02:02:59,520 --> 02:03:06,520
Tennis Hermit Friday, for the 6-3-7-5 win over countryman Aljondo Zanzibel.

1332
02:03:06,520 --> 02:03:12,520
Two Americans, Kendra Murphy and Jim Brown, also won to make the final four.

1333
02:03:12,520 --> 02:03:20,520
Again, Larry Holmes has defended his WBC crown. He has won the 13th round.

1334
02:03:20,520 --> 02:03:25,520
They stopped the fight. Larry Holmes shattered the mystique of top-ranked contender Jerry Cooney

1335
02:03:25,520 --> 02:03:30,520
by successfully defending his World Boxing Council heavyweight title at Las Vegas,

1336
02:03:30,520 --> 02:03:37,520
a 13th-round technical knockout over the previously unbeaten challenger.

1337
02:03:37,520 --> 02:03:44,520
Women's tennis from Birmingham, England, American Billie Jean King has reached the semifinals of the Grand Prix Tournée-Massere.

1338
02:03:44,520 --> 02:03:49,520
She defeated Leslie Allen, 7-3 and 7-6.
