00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:13,000
The California Angels faced the Boston Red Sox at Fennway Park for a Monday night game on June 12, 1978.

3
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:19,000
The Angels were an average team and were managed by Jim Fragosi, who had just replaced Dave Garcia earlier in the month.

4
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:26,000
The Red Sox were managed by Don Zimmer and were off to a hot start with a 39-19 record and a 6-game lead over the Yankees in the AL East.

5
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:32,000
This audio recording is from the Angels Radio broadcast featuring announcers Dick Emberg and Al Wisk.

6
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:02,000
The Angels were an average team and were managed by Jim Fragosi, who had just replaced Dave Garcia earlier in the month.

7
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:09,000
The California Angels were an average team and were off to a hot start with a 39-19 record and a 6-game lead over the Yankees in the AL East.

8
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:14,000
This audio recording is from the Angels radio broadcast featuring announcers Dick Emberg and Al Wisk.

9
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:21,000
The Angels were an average team and were off to a hot start with a 39-19 record and a 6-game lead over the Yankees in the AL East.

10
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:29,000
Back in April, it was out for five or six weeks. He's been used as a designated hitter and a pitch hitter, but this is his first start at the back.

11
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:34,000
Landro leads them from first base and Bob Ritz, the second baseman, steps in.

12
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,000
From Long Beach, California, hitting 233, a hot-ass four-game hitting streak.

13
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:43,000
Interestingly, the first pitch thrown by Lee was a big, soft balloon curveball.

14
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:51,000
In field set for two, the pitch was thrown on road towards third, hopped it up with it, and went for a first base and makes a throw in time.

15
00:01:51,000 --> 00:02:01,000
Now the Angels first throw hunting on Bill Lee, and the thinking by the California Ball Club maybe that Lee has reportedly had trouble with his shoulder may be stiff,

16
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:05,000
and if you're going to get to him, get to him before he loosens up.

17
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:12,000
The Angels have Landro at second base, and Raymond Bostock, one of the hottest hitters in baseball this month of June, steps in.

18
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:23,000
In the 11 games this month, Bostock, the left-handed hitting center fielder of the Angels, has 24 hits in 11 games, 24 for 49, nearly 500.

19
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:28,000
The raises average up to 274 after a schismal April leave, almost went 0 for April.

20
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Left-hander against left-hander, Lee checks for under a second to pick slow curveball as in there.

21
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,000
And I mean slow curveball.

22
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:45,000
Bostock against the Red Sox, an appearance in Anaheim last weekend, was 8 for 13.

23
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:56,000
Lee, Landro, dances off second base, spins the throw and throws in behind the bag by four steps, made the catch to take it out of center field.

24
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:04,000
The wind is blowing toward that 37-foot green monster in left field, so get the ball up toward left, and you've got a chance for an easy home run tonight.

25
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:09,000
A near-sellout crowd at Centway Park, they're averaging over 26,000 for home day.

26
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:19,000
Lee, again checks Landro, big lead, and time called as Bostock steps out of the bat as Box Lee went through with his pitch, and it was another slow curveball.

27
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:24,000
The Angels and Red Sox, two tired teams.

28
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,000
The Red Sox arrived in Boston at 6.30 this morning from Seattle.

29
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:36,000
The Angels didn't get to the hotel in Boston until about 9.30, and the bag's in the room about 11 o'clock after an all-night flight from Los Angeles.

30
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:41,000
Foul back by Bostock on a one-handed swing, and it's going to.

31
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:48,000
The key to Lee with all of his jump, as the players would refer to it, is to wait, try to hit the ball to the opposite field.

32
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,000
Don't try to power it.

33
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,000
They play Bostock to full.

34
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,000
He has in front of the Marston left, led into right center, and Evans in straightaway right.

35
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,000
Lee checks Landro, the two-strike pitch.

36
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:07,000
Playing around balls of right field side, a shot up with it goes to the bag and time for the yard.

37
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:13,000
So Bostock pulling the ball to the right side and strikes to George Scott on two convenient hunts.

38
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,000
Two's on as Landro moves into third base.

39
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:26,000
His left fielder Joe Rudy hitting 171, and a needy average for the talented left fielder of the Angels.

40
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,000
It just hasn't been able to get that bat working for him.

41
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:40,000
In fact, if Enfletch had his pitchers and it was figured that Rudy would devour the four-starters, he has only four hits all season, four for 27.

42
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,000
That figure is out at 148. Chance to give the Angels the late top of the first inning.

43
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,000
Landro at third, Lee from the full lineup gets his time from fifth to the fifth.

44
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,000
Down low ball on as they turn that one over, they just hit low and outside.

45
00:04:53,000 --> 00:05:01,000
Ron Jackson, in contrast to Rudy, hitting over 400 against Fluffies as on deck.

46
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:06,000
Rudy, a couple of home runs, ten runs batted in. He's always hit well here in Boston.

47
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,000
Landro down the line at third, Lee pumps and here comes the pitch.

48
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:15,000
Swing and a line drive left center field over his gas, racing, racing, and climbing all the way to the wall.

49
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:21,000
Down flat back with the general left center field, runs rumors Rudy into second with a double, and the Angels lead at 1-0.

50
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:32,000
Joe Rudy leans on that one and sends a line drive off the base of the wall beyond the scoreboard, inserted into that 37-foot center left field.

51
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:39,000
The Angels jump in front. It's an under and run as Landro Saifan-Skotir checks in from third base.

52
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:45,000
Ron Jackson hitting.357, second best in the American League.

53
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:53,000
Jackson is just a point behind Rod Carew of the Minnesota Twins, and that is still another story because Rod Carew in headlines,

54
00:05:53,000 --> 00:06:01,000
all of the sports pages of around the country, as Calvin Griffith of Minnesota says that he'll be trading him before the deadline burns the midnight.

55
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,000
Jackson high ball one, Lee didn't like the goal.

56
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:13,000
Word is that the Angels are one of three teams vying for Rod Carew's talent.

57
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:19,000
Regardless, generally, it's the best hitter in baseball, and the great rumors don't end there.

58
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:23,000
Hit by Lee, high blooper, very high and away to it all.

59
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:33,000
Now we got a big thrill. Ted Workin was my idol as a kid, and I can recall tracking behind him down Michigan Avenue from the book Cadillac Hotel

60
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:37,000
down at Ben Brick Stadium, trying to stay out of his presence but still close.

61
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:41,000
Line drive, base hit left field, going to be a play-for-play. Here comes Rudy around third.

62
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,000
So far, Yaz is going to be cut off, and Rudy holds it one day.

63
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:55,000
Rod Jackson lines the field in the left center, but Yaz who plays the outfield like a shortstop,

64
00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:00,000
links over and in, field it on one half and flies to the plate, and John Machamel, the coach of third,

65
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:04,000
wisely threw up the stop time for Joe Rudy. He would have been out by twenty-three.

66
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:11,000
Jackson at bird base, bat back at all, playing insane, continues his knowledge hitting for the Angels.

67
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:18,000
Here's Merv Ruslund, the designated hitter, batting 298, he's primarily against left-handed pitching.

68
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:23,000
So the Angels in there, a double on the single, have a run-in in the first inning, runner to first and third,

69
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,000
and Ruslund trying to keep it going.

70
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:35,000
Lee set, and a pitch. High ball one, but to continue the point, Williams of course,

71
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:42,000
regarded as the first man to hit Rich Sewell's main blooper ball, where he's the pitch that he threw for a home run,

72
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,000
and he connected in the 1946 All-Star game right here in Senway Park.

73
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:53,000
One of the storied moments in baseball. The pitch, Rettman takes a strike, low curve ball, one and one.

74
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:57,000
That wasn't the blooper, too, but plenty taking off it.

75
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:06,000
Bill Lee, 31 years of age, former USC All-American, he is now the all-time Boston Red Sox record holder

76
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:13,000
for games up here at the left-handers. This is his 306th game in Boston, often a graveyard for the left-handers.

77
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,000
The pitch, low and outside, is defended over, and the count is two and one.

78
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:21,000
The Merv Ruslund, the veteran outfielder, designated hitter for the Angels.

79
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:26,000
Outstanding athlete at Ball State University in Indiana.

80
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:31,000
Played football and baseball. Jackson away at first base, Scott holding him on.

81
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,000
Rudy down the line at third, a run on top of the first inning.

82
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:38,000
Lee steps in, a two-run hit, low curve is high, three and one.

83
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:42,000
So Lee's struggling a bit here on the first inning. Rettman backs out of the batter's box,

84
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:48,000
checks with his third base coach, young Jim Fregelty, the 36-year-old manager of the Angels,

85
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:54,000
youngest in those big leagues now, sends a sign to Matt Camero, who relays to Rettman, hitter-takes.

86
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:58,000
Might be something that works with a runner at first base as well, three and one.

87
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,000
They play Rettman straight away to go to first, and Jackson gets back.

88
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,000
Lee has one of the best moves to first base.

89
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:10,000
That was in his A move, Scott holding on to Jackson.

90
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,000
Lee leaning on the right knee as he gets his time from Townsend fifth.

91
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:20,000
And a three-one pitch inside, and the bases are loaded.

92
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:26,000
Rettman to first base with a loss, forcing Jackson into second. Rudy a third.

93
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:32,000
And the bullpen phone is ringing down in the Boston.

94
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:37,000
Right center field, relief area, and a right-hander gets up and starts throwing in a hurry.

95
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:42,000
Here's veteran Ron Fairley. The Angels with three key players injured.

96
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:47,000
Three right-handed hitters that strapped a bit for the right-handed bat, and he hates coming to center way with us.

97
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,000
The services are saying Don Baylor, who is second in the major leagues and home runs with 15,

98
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,000
but Baylor's sideline with a hamstring ball.

99
00:09:54,000 --> 00:10:00,000
Carney Lansford, the brilliant young rookie third baseman, and his swing made the order for this ballpark.

100
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,000
He's out for three weeks at least with a club injury.

101
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,000
And it's very helpful for another right-hander to do the catchers out with a sore arm.

102
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,000
So Fairley's in there for the Angels.

103
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:14,000
Here's the pitch by Lee. It's in for a strike, a back ball on the inside corner.

104
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,000
Right-hander Bob Stanley is the man loosening up for Boston.

105
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:22,000
Fairley used almost exclusively against right-handed pitching.

106
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:26,000
It's been up only eight times against southparks, and he's one for eight.

107
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:31,000
Here's the pitch. Low with a breaking ball. It's one and one.

108
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:35,000
Some of the photographers taking pictures of Fairley and Ted Williams.

109
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:43,000
But Fairley needs only to stay active a couple more years and become a four-decade player, as was Williams.

110
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:47,000
Right-hander, first in 40 years of age, weighs that wood back and forth.

111
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:53,000
Bates is loaded to run in. The one-on-one pitch. Curveball hangs inside. Two and one.

112
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:58,000
Still the man trying to help out, played on by a rough guess.

113
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:02,000
I tell you, Lee is throwing soft, softly in.

114
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:07,000
A couple of those pitches, you almost run up behind and pass them on their way up to home plate.

115
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:12,000
Almost slow pitch. Two and one. Bates is full. The pitch. Curveball is in there.

116
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:16,000
Fairley backing away from the plate. He threw that one a little harder.

117
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:23,000
So two balls, two strikes. Jim Bregotti apologizing for having Fairley's name on it.

118
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:28,000
Starting wide up lift. They're apologizing only in the man's 40 years of age.

119
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,000
He played yesterday, then an all-night travel, very little sleep.

120
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:35,000
They'd like to wreck him a day, but that's not possible with the injury.

121
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,000
Rudy at third. Jackson at second. Rettman at first. All ready to rock.

122
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:42,000
Two outs, two balls, two strikes to count. Lee kicks it. Here comes the pitch.

123
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:47,000
Clean the line. Bates that right center field. Rudy scores. Here comes Jackson around third. He scores.

124
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:55,000
Rettman goes to third on a chop single by Fairley, and the angels lead three to nothing.

125
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:01,000
Now the apologizes there from Ron Fairley, as he drives a bullet past Jack Rohan.

126
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:08,000
Right in the right center field, fast fielding by Lynn. He's down from rolling all the way to the wall.

127
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:13,000
Angels with three runs at the top of the first of all the other.

128
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:19,000
Rettman at third, Fairley, with his 19th and 20th runs batted into the season at first base.

129
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,000
And Dave Schalk in a modest four-game hitting streak to batter.

130
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,000
Way up on the handle of the bat, right-handed hitter. Lee delivers.

131
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:31,000
Outside with a tailing fastball. Schalk getting a solid 291 for the angels.

132
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:37,000
They play him a change of ball. Evans up a few steps in right field, quite shallow.

133
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,000
Lee straights and the pitch.

134
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:45,000
Butt it, scores third a good front, and a red and roll fair.

135
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,000
It lands right on the far line and reviews the kick foul.

136
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:58,000
The bases are loaded. Rettman could not score in that the front was right there on the third-day front about 20 feet from home plate.

137
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:03,000
And if Rettman had tried to score, Siskill was hovering over the ball, would have picked it up and tagged him.

138
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:14,000
Siskill was just waving a mini version of his 1975 World Series moment, where he stood here at home plate and waved his home run fair to beat Cincinnati in game six.

139
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:27,000
It was more of a little gentle come on, now come on, as he just moved the fingers to both hands, bring it foul, but it didn't have much action on it, and rolled weakly right on the foul line and stopped for a base hit.

140
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:35,000
So the angels hit around at a first inning as the bases loaded again, and Brian Downing, right-handed hitting catcher, steps in.

141
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:45,000
So a free run home and a chance to really give Rettman a lead, swing and a miss at a true piece on Michael Lee.

142
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:51,000
Bailey moves into second, Rettman is third, with shots at first to halo over every base.

143
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:58,000
The angels threaten to blow it open in the first inning, can't get too many runs in Fenway, that's an old song.

144
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:07,000
Lee rocks back and a pitch, low, one ball, one strike, Bob Stanley continues to throw in the bullpen, for the Boston Red Sox.

145
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:13,000
The angels with an air, a walk, and four hits in the inning.

146
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:22,000
31-year-old left-hander from the University of Southern California, Bill Lee, kicks the deal, high, a breaking ball, two and one, and Lee falls behind again.

147
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:29,000
The angels hit, two balls and a strike, Lee has to throw strikes with a base that's full, and Brian Downing in the catbird seat.

148
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,000
He likes this one, he's giving it a go.

149
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:38,000
The outfield deep toward left, a pitch, drive, it just caught the outside corner, Downing thought it was two ball wide,

150
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:47,000
walked across the place, kind of sculpted the dirt of a line that would mark the left-hander's hitters, that is, Bob.

151
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:53,000
Two balls, two strikes, Downing with nine runs that it is, here comes the two, two, pitch,

152
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,000
swinging a foul back out of play, that one up on the roof of Fenway.

153
00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:02,000
So talking about double decking, Fenway, from first to round to third, has some 8,000 seats.

154
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:09,000
The capacity now is around 33 to 35 to minutes, depending on how many you can jam in the backs of the lower deck.

155
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:17,000
There's multiple tie box sets, as you know, around first to third, almost packed again tonight.

156
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:23,000
As Boston comes down from a successful throw pitch, two, two, pitch, swinging a high pop-up,

157
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:30,000
out goes Brohamer, in comes Lynn, here comes Larry Golds, he's all the way down.

158
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:36,000
Now the angels bat around at first, and a three-hundred run, four hits, four hits, three to three.

159
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:40,000
Last of the first team that is nearly away, we'll see how Boston does.

160
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:46,000
Bonham for the first inning, after a half-hitting, the angels three, the Red Sox against right-hander Tom Griffin, coming to the bench.

161
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:52,000
Last of the first inning, right-hander Tom Griffin of the angels making his third start of the season.

162
00:15:52,000 --> 00:16:00,000
He is 0-2, a 3.50 Yare, is outing last time up, last Wednesday evening.

163
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:04,000
In the second game of the doubleheader at the Oakland Panathena, what is that thinking performance?

164
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:08,000
As he lost to someone, Matt Keough, VA's 1-0.

165
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:16,000
Former National League rookie pitcher of the year, 1969, with a Houston Astros, this is Griffin's first year in the American League.

166
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:21,000
And looking for his first American League victory, Ron Jackson at third,

167
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:27,000
Keith Lindsey around the horn, has a shot, gets short, Bob Griffin, Bob Fairley on the right side,

168
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,000
Rooney at left, Voskoc in center, and Ken Landrell on right.

169
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:36,000
Brian Downey behind the plate, Griffin, with a free-humping lead, will face Rick Rolton, Fred Lind, and Jim Wright.

170
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:41,000
Remember, these Red Sox have not lost to a Western Division team yet this year at home.

171
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:47,000
Canada, and only four clubs have beaten them all season at Fedway, where they are 22-4.

172
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:52,000
First pick to Rolton, very high ball one.

173
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:58,000
Well, that's been home field defense. 22-4 for the Red Sox, and they've just completed a 5-3 road trip.

174
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:04,000
Six full games ahead of the Yankees in the East. Griffin hits the field, ground ball to third, Jackson let the go under,

175
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:11,000
and it's off, they hit. Rooney feels, gets it in, and Rolton's the boy, and they're on a face-hit.

176
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:16,000
Ron Jackson playing with a bad back, and you can tell it on that play.

177
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:20,000
He didn't get down on the ball, and right under it, a glove. Jackson normally makes that play.

178
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:25,000
If he leaned to his left, Griffin gets the glove that low.

179
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:32,000
Rolton, who I think is now a 10th grade game, is the board at first base, and here's Gwendolyn, the center fielder.

180
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:38,000
26-year-old left-handed hitter from USC and El Monte, California, hitting 3-16.

181
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,000
Mitched by Griffin. Back ball misses, down tie ball one.

182
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:48,000
Well, after watching Bill Lee and all that slow, soft pitching that he offered the first inning,

183
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:52,000
Griffin looks like the fastest man to ever hit the mound, by contrast.

184
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,000
The pitch, back ball low enough, tie ball two.

185
00:17:55,000 --> 00:18:01,000
Molly Engel has the team through all night from the west coast to get here to Boston.

186
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:09,000
Griffin advanced the team, and he was able to get here 20 times in a good night's sleep, so he's the one rested Engel.

187
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:14,000
Bill Lee also allowed that play.

188
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:19,000
He left the Boston club from Seattle a day early so that he might get a good night's rest here.

189
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:24,000
Oh, Flynn. Good power, gets the ball to the right field well.

190
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:29,000
The pitch, when a high pop-up off third, Gaffer and Downing to the Engel dugout.

191
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,000
Right end's going to be back about four rows.

192
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:39,000
Gaffer tie off the concrete floor and well back into the ground.

193
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:47,000
The Engels left down. Excellent three-game series against the New York Yankees.

194
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:52,000
They're trying an average of over 30,000 a game, and on a season now,

195
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:58,000
they've averaged 20,580 hits at Amazons, Boston averaging 26,012 for their home base.

196
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,000
Throw to first and back is Rolston.

197
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:04,000
Jumie Cieski, former teammate of our three-game guest, Ted Williams,

198
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:09,000
choking at first base, called him the Washington man in his playing days.

199
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,000
Next, we have the Detroit Tigers, Eddie Yoch, coaches the third.

200
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:17,000
They're following away three and one. So Griffin gets up the base into Wilson

201
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,000
and falls behind Lynn three and one with Jim Wright,

202
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:27,000
the Major League leader in home runs and RBI on deck.

203
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:32,000
Three-nothing Engel, bottom of the first inning.

204
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:36,000
Griffin sets the three-one-fifth, swinging a high fly ball to center field.

205
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:42,000
Botsock waiting in position in deep center. He's got it and is one away.

206
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,000
You can see that ball is carrying maybe another 10, 15 feet because of the wind.

207
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:49,000
Botsock had a beat on it, and then he kept shifting back to his small set.

208
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:53,000
The ball is in the hand is for Jim Wright.

209
00:19:53,000 --> 00:20:01,000
Right, the Zabrich has dipped down to 321,

210
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:05,000
and he took the next of that in practice before the game tonight.

211
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:10,000
He leads the majors with 19 homers, 54 runs batted in,

212
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,000
American League leader in runs, hits, and flung percentage,

213
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,000
and tied in triples with six.

214
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,000
Squeezed and misses, going one.

215
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,000
Good compact stroke for Wright.

216
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:24,000
They have the tightest swing of anyone in the American League.

217
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:28,000
Liking to Joe Lewis's famous six-inch right-hand front,

218
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,000
they could destroy an opponent.

219
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:36,000
Wright takes a very short swing, but such a strong man can hit it out anywhere.

220
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:40,000
Just 25 years of age from Madison, South Carolina.

221
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:44,000
Where to waste him, deep in the box, counting out to say something to Griffin who

222
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,000
took over, catched the run of Wilson at first, barely holding in sight,

223
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:52,000
off to your deeps, the pitch, low, a breaking ball, and it's one and one.

224
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:57,000
Wright has been playing left field with the injury to Scott,

225
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:02,000
and tonight the designated hitter was Scottie back at first base for Boston.

226
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:07,000
Griffin, 6'3", 210 pounds from the San Fernando Valley, throws the first and

227
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,000
rolls in the back.

228
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,000
Griffin, second, squeeze over toward the back,

229
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:16,000
Scott trying to come to hold best he can, but still hits,

230
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:20,000
step up, a double play position, set swing, and it's low.

231
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,000
Griffin's at eight, what's wrong with that one?

232
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,000
Two balls and a strike.

233
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:32,000
How about that for a plugging percentage for Wright, 6'38".

234
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:36,000
Where's 14, a bright red and a red bull to the back of his Boston white.

235
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:40,000
The two on deck, low again, three and one.

236
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,000
Griffin's all behind left, three and one, and got him to fly to center.

237
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:50,000
Now he's behind right, three and one, with Kyle Yosdremski on deck.

238
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,000
No place to rest in his Boston batting order, the best hitting list in the

239
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,000
American world.

240
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,000
Number nine hitter, Hopkins, 262, 11 home runs.

241
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,000
Going in a high pop-up, right side,

242
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,000
Griffin waiting for it to come down as the edge is out on the grass,

243
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,000
second base with Hazard, and it's two away.

244
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,000
For a while, Griffin might have been wondering, will it come down?

245
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,000
It was just that high, two gone, Yosdremski, the batter,

246
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,000
goes right to far for a safety identification.

247
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:19,000
This is a fourth place of the San Joaquin Valley, KOMG by Talia,

248
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:24,000
and all of the 300 safety and safety on American Forces radio,

249
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:46,000
three nothing angels, eight for almost 78.

250
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:50,000
Talia Yosdremski, three nothing angels, bottom of the first inning,

251
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,000
first pitch is high ball on.

252
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:58,000
New ball thrown out to Tom Griffin, yes, hitting 290 this year,

253
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:04,000
refusing to acknowledge his advancing years, still in great shape.

254
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:08,000
Ten wheels that bat in the right hand and settles off the letters and

255
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,000
a photo of Bert Rolton at back.

256
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,000
Yes, has three home runs and 28 runs that have been.

257
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,000
Now 38 years of age from Long Island, New York.

258
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:20,000
The pitch, curve ball high, ball two, so Griffin behind the hitters,

259
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,000
but getting away with it so far.

260
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:26,000
Bill Lee did not, and the angels scored three as they hit around with

261
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,000
a helpful for there in the top of the first inning.

262
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,000
Griffin sent the pitch, going to shot the second way to Griffin,

263
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,000
got the pitch, hit on, throws and gets him.

264
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:39,000
Ball, handshot, grit, fortunately rolled only about eight feet away,

265
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:44,000
was able to pounce on it and throw out, yes, at first base, 4-3.

266
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:50,000
So the touch, no runs, one hit and one left as Skipper Don Zimmerman

267
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:55,000
left right hand, linear three-one and yes, two holes and they all made out.

268
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:59,000
After an inning, angels three, brought to nothing.

269
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,000
The same cozy Fenway Park in Boston on a 70 degree evening,

270
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:10,000
58% humidity, the breeze about 17 miles an hour toward the left field wall.

271
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:16,000
Little chance of rain tonight, but 80% prediction of precipitation tomorrow.

272
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,000
Bill Lee, shooting up with sound and fizz, will face the top of the angel order,

273
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,000
Lambeau, Griffin, Vossack.

274
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,000
One game played in the Major League this afternoon,

275
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:28,000
Candle 6, Mark and Stanton, San Francisco, 7,231.

276
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:33,000
Saw the Giants get a one hitter from Ed Hallicki as they shut out Montreal, one nothing.

277
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:37,000
The Giants picked up only three hits off Steve Rogers of the X-Bow.

278
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,000
Hallicki three and one the winner, Rogers seven and six the loser,

279
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:44,000
Giants one, Montreal nothing.

280
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:48,000
Seattle at Baltimore underway tonight and the Blanders failed to score top of the first inning.

281
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,000
Landro takes a fast ball inside ball one.

282
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,000
That's Colburn against Martinez.

283
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:58,000
Solts against Moore, Minnesota, Toronto rain delay at the start.

284
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:03,000
The pitch, a strike and a slider and it's one and one to Landro.

285
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:09,000
He was safe on Goddard in the first inning that opened the gates for the angels to score their three runs.

286
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:14,000
Milwaukee will be in Detroit tonight, Rodriguez for the Brewers out of the bullpenning against Noke Wilcox.

287
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:18,000
Open New York, Texas, Kansas City, Cleveland and Chicago no report.

288
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,000
The pitch, low curve high.

289
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:24,000
Natchel Lake, St. Louis and Atlanta, they're in the second inning no score.

290
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,000
A book of it for the Cods and Marlars for the Braves.

291
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:31,000
Chicago, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Houston, New York and San Diego, the Dodgers, those for Philadelphia.

292
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:36,000
There's a looping line of Burlson one handed to the big overscore strike.

293
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:46,000
Landro, a looping line drive, caught by Burlson as the left-handed B didn't take the full lead and one handed it to his backhand side.

294
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,000
Bobby Gritt mounted a third in for a timeout.

295
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,000
Bobby Gritt.

296
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,000
Point over here, 6-6, 9-9-4.

297
00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:03,000
Quick or not, go.

298
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:08,000
First pitch to Gritt is second for a strike.

299
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,000
Bobby just saved the last four hands.

300
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,000
We're just getting three-counted back.

301
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:20,000
A bomb and handled, lightly closed hands, Lee delivers that close service in there.

302
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:29,000
A strike on Gritt. It has to be a pace and hitter against button and ability.

303
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:36,000
Most of his pitches are above the batter's head somewhere during the trajectory from mound to plate.

304
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:42,000
The pitch, inside, and he's doing that one about as hard as he can, a bat ball and Gritt fell back.

305
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:50,000
What a weight is that ball, more spotty in his lead came to face.

306
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,000
That's still well back for Gritt.

307
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,000
The pump and a one-two delivery.

308
00:26:55,000 --> 00:27:01,000
High, two-and-two, Gritt leads the A-pill with 34-1.

309
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,000
Simon Bogdak on deck.

310
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,000
Three-nothing, A-pill claded.

311
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,000
We're at the top of the second inning, one out, Bates is empty.

312
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:15,000
We have a line drive, Berlton has his one-two.

313
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,000
Now a line drive off the bat of Bobby Gritt, but right to the doorstop.

314
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,000
Rick Berlton, thought he'd just about the bill of his camp.

315
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:29,000
Simon Bogdak, the center fielder, bounce-out to the first base when George got unassisted his first time out.

316
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,000
We mentioned Craig Roeber's, a trading deadline.

317
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:36,000
The name to Lake is this Thursday night, midnight.

318
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:41,000
And one of the rumors floating around involving the Angels, Nolan Ryan, down ball to George.

319
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,000
Berlton's been a busy man, he picks up everyone in the second inning.

320
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,000
Goes across the scott, hits three on the put-out.

321
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:54,000
A one-two-three inning for the Angels, after one-and-a-half, it's the Angels three, Boston nothing.

322
00:27:54,000 --> 00:28:03,000
John Chiley, the fine organist here at Senway Park in Boston with a plain, it's a small world.

323
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:10,000
And indeed we feel that every time we receive a good news, that we're able to share our broadcast with those of you listening.

324
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:14,000
All corners of the globe, and we hope it is well with you.

325
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,000
We salute our men and women.

326
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:22,000
The United States Armed Forces, as well as many folks who are vacationing.

327
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:28,000
Much to the day to Europe, and joining us on this baseball broadcast from Boston.

328
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:35,000
Berlton fifth, and George Scott and Jack Brohamer will bat against Tom Griffin in the Boston second inning.

329
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:39,000
Fifth, now 30, native of New Hampshire.

330
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:44,000
Getting to 67, that's five-oh-one, and Mankiewicz batted in.

331
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:51,000
Big right-handed batter, he and Joe Rudy, the Angels brass, the most deliberate hitters in the entire league in getting themselves better than batters.

332
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:56,000
Berlton just settling in now, wide spread closed stands.

333
00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:01,000
Downing the outside, target the pitches too high, bow-on.

334
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:05,000
Rudy playing right at the edge of the track in front of the scoreboard and left.

335
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,000
Five-stop team in left-center.

336
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:14,000
And Lambrough, a good distance back in straightaway right field.

337
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:23,000
Griffin runs back to pitch, playing a pop-up, might be a play behind the play for Downing, flips the match away, comes back toward the box seat, and makes a fine running catch.

338
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:29,000
One step from the fatted barrier, the box seat running toward the ankle back out of the third-day's eye.

339
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:38,000
Downing, a huffling catcher, who plays his position at times like an infielder.

340
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,000
The bowman, George Scott, steps in.

341
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:48,000
Getting to 84, now 34 years of age, native of Greenville, Mississippi.

342
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:58,000
He has brought not only a lot of long home runs to this league, but a whole new language, to pitch, back ball strike.

343
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:10,000
Talk about throwing a heater, a back ball hitting a tater, and many other Scottism, third ball bent outside, what a run.

344
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:20,000
Scott, handling both ends of his game so very well, he has 256 career home runs, he's won eight Golden Gloves.

345
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,000
Injured at the start of this season, but healthy now.

346
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:28,000
The pitch, twing, and a miss, as he took his mid-trip.

347
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:33,000
Scott's power is to left and right center field.

348
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:40,000
He is 420 to the center field wall and adjacent to the Boston bullpen out of deep right center, about 400 foot away center.

349
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:45,000
Swing and a miss, takes a bad ball, strike three.

350
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:50,000
What? Played off by a rough catcher saying that George Scott didn't swing it that way?

351
00:30:50,000 --> 00:31:01,000
And Downing can't believe that, and the Calvary man goes to two and two instead of strike three.

352
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:08,000
And left, Shet the thing, that that ball was foul tipped by Scott, that's the only thing we can think of.

353
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:12,000
Jim Tragulki has not come out of the angle dugout.

354
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:15,000
And Downing continues to talk with the plate up by our guest.

355
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,000
Scoreboard reads the ball in two strikes.

356
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,000
Scott took a pretty good swing, not to be called out.

357
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,000
They must have foul tipped it.

358
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,000
That is one and two.

359
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,000
Rippon rocks back and here it comes.

360
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,000
Swing and a wide drive, big hit, left center field.

361
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,000
Lanzel over to get it in right center.

362
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,000
Swinton falls, gets up and gets his throw in.

363
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:42,000
Scott holds it for a save with a second Boston hit.

364
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,000
He had a pull-in out over Drixie's head.

365
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:51,000
The matter is Jack Krohama, little left-handed hitting infielder, he's in the lineup because

366
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:58,000
Gillie Remy, the second baseman for the Red Sox, has a really great ankle, maybe a 4 or 5 game.

367
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:01,000
But Krohama has been doing a solid job anyway.

368
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:07,000
He's got a 10 game hitting streak, that's his longest ever in the big laker and he's hitting 2.99.

369
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:11,000
The pitch by Griffin is just outside ball one.

370
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:15,000
Krohama wears number three on his back.

371
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:21,000
Played out his option with a wide start, time with Boston.

372
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,000
He's a Southern Californian from Huntington Beach.

373
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:27,000
The pitch, swing and another wide drive, big hit by Gillie.

374
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,000
There goes Scott in the second, Lanzel off to the ball, Scott's going to go to third.

375
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,000
Swinton's been thrown at third base.

376
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:37,000
He's whiffed it in the back, throws it away and Krohama holds it for a save.

377
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:48,000
He whiffed it out, a land row throw hit him in the back and Scott Gambling makes it to third.

378
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:54,000
Krohama has made it 11th great game and George Scott, not the speediest runner,

379
00:32:54,000 --> 00:33:01,000
gambled on land row ground and Lanzel threw a perfect one hopper to the third base with Ron Jackson.

380
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:06,000
Scott is six back, went in the way, hit him in the back and it's down the way.

381
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:13,000
Scott, that runner that first and third went out in the second and the tie runs up right in the four on a wide oven

382
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:20,000
to make right handed head right fielder, out, out, to the right.

383
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:26,000
Kevin, 13 home runs, 27 runs ran in him.

384
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:31,000
And that left field ball that's so very close when he steps in there, takes a strike, a curve ball,

385
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:36,000
and hits the outside corner.

386
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:41,000
Scott and Ron Hammer with one hop in the box and second inning.

387
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:45,000
Bailey anchored in the back, the end field looking for the level play, Kevin.

388
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:49,000
And then it's a 287 hitter, the pitch, swing and a foul.

389
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:55,000
Puts that one up on a roof about the best level behind home plate.

390
00:33:55,000 --> 00:34:02,000
It's a great ball to play Kevin. So many of the old timers feel as we do that they also never change that way.

391
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:07,000
It's very special in light of a new modern stadium that seems so sterile.

392
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:12,000
This one with its many angles and its short centers to pitch is 9-1-2.

393
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:16,000
You're always going to game a 10-1.

394
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:20,000
And the fans is knowledgeable of Minion baseball.

395
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:28,000
And he's going to take his pickets now to bring him here to the Muppet Eye game and hit the seller.

396
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,000
Griffin checks the runners for the third and the pitch.

397
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:35,000
Swing and a foul, foul, foul, it'll be out of play as Evans falling a fastball away.

398
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:40,000
Hits it in behind the back of the box and dugout.

399
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,000
Bush-Hopson, 38th minute on deck.

400
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:50,000
The likes of Hopson and Evans at the bottom of the Boston batting order give you an idea why the rest of us in first place.

401
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:56,000
Evans has 13 home runs and Hopson 11th and they're hitting 8th and 9th.

402
00:34:56,000 --> 00:35:00,000
Got off third, from Amherst first, swing out the angles, here's the pitch.

403
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,000
Look at that, oh, high five on the left field.

404
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:21,000
The wind will help it and it's going and it's off.

405
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:35,000
Right, Evans with his fourth home run, high five all and the wind just rolled that one into the string and left it in the field and it's a new ball game in three.

406
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:42,000
Evans, a couple of pitches he couldn't call, got a high fastball over the plate and hit a high five ball.

407
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:48,000
It's been out almost anywhere else but that's why it's so friendly and friendly for the right-handed hitters.

408
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:55,000
As the wind carried it, Rudy just watched as it fell over his bat high up into that string.

409
00:35:55,000 --> 00:36:00,000
Just like that the game is even at three.

410
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:07,000
Here's Bush-Hopson batting 262, the pitch, breaking ball for a strike on one.

411
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:15,000
As a pitcher you just have to save yourself, I didn't make that bat a pitch but in this part you can't let him hit it high to left,

412
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:22,000
it's simply over the wind, ball out the middle, backhand by Griggs behind second, he throws it out, five strikes.

413
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,000
Ball is just fairly well.

414
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:31,000
Now two outs in the second inning and the total is now even, three runs, four hits a tie.

415
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:36,000
Rick Wilson singled under Jackson's glove, hit first time up.

416
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:41,000
Second to the American Laker doubles with 15.

417
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:50,000
So Hawthorne's close are getting 2.7 but his bat's getting heated up a bit, he's hit safely a six and a row and wouldn't admit to a good thinking bat ball.

418
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:55,000
So the crowd got what they were asking for, the home run was two-man-eleven from Dwight Evans.

419
00:36:55,000 --> 00:37:01,000
A three-three tie, the pitch, turnball over but low, one and one.

420
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:13,000
Brett Lennon's on deck. Griffin runs back and here's the pitch, high, a bat ball, two and one.

421
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:21,000
Griffin mopping his brow, working it late for the angels, not accustomed to the humidity with a dry heat in California.

422
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:28,000
It's not a bad night, pop up in his channel center, five-stock in, talk out, five-stock stop, man makes the catch,

423
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:33,000
almost fell down, he put on the break running hard to realize the wind was staring that ball out.

424
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:36,000
He slammed on the break and almost fell down.

425
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,000
Griffin, they made his putting and made the catch.

426
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:43,000
Red Sox three runs to tie, a three hit, no one left.

427
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:47,000
After two, Boston three, the angels three.

428
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:55,000
The Red Sox are home where they enjoy the dimensions of Fenway and have just hit their 69th team home run of the season,

429
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:59,000
and they tie with Milwaukee, the best home run hitting team in the American League currently.

430
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:05,000
And Bill Lee is back even at three-three as he warms up, he'll say still Rudy, Ron Jackson and Merv Gressma,

431
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:08,000
the middle of the angel batting order in the top of the third inning.

432
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:13,000
This is the Kenberg with Al Witt, Don Drysdale off on a time and will rejoin us tomorrow night,

433
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,000
producer, engineer, Dick Nelson.

434
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:20,000
Just to complete that note on a possible trade involving Nolan Ryan,

435
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:28,000
the fire service report that the owner of the Texas Rangers, Brad Corbett, had flown from Arlington to Anaheim

436
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:34,000
to visit with Angel General Manager, Bucky Bervese about a trade which would involve the Rangers and Angels.

437
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,000
They would like very much to have an agent in Texas, Nolan Ryan.

438
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,000
We hear anything, of course, you'll hear about it.

439
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:40,000
Let's go to the third inning.

440
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,000
Three-three, tie here now.

441
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,000
Our deck and here's Rudy at the plate, they've seen Bill Lee in the Boston Red Sox.

442
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:49,000
Lee holding the ball in front of his chest, looking for the side from Carl Spiskie.

443
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:54,000
Now lines for the first pitch for Joe Rudy as the slow curve up high for a one.

444
00:38:54,000 --> 00:39:00,000
He's changing speed to watch this year and that's one reason that George Van Bergen,

445
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:07,000
the new manager of the Milwaukee Brewers, says that he figures Bill Lee will be the big winner this year in the Boston Red Sox.

446
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:08,000
We'll have to wait and see.

447
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,000
He's back at seven and three.

448
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:11,000
He winds at the pitch.

449
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:14,000
Swing and a miss.

450
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:18,000
Does Joe Rudy get the plate to count even one and one?

451
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:26,000
Bill Lee has been bothered by shoulder problems ever since he got into that brawl in Yankee Stadium on May 20th, 1976.

452
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:32,000
And he says that he still has some degree of discomfort in his shoulders as he pitches this year.

453
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:35,000
He winds and the one more pitch to Rudy is in time.

454
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,000
They count two and one to Joe.

455
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:42,000
Of course, Lee was out for a couple of months after that injury.

456
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:51,000
And that's on track at the 1976 season for him. He's hoping that 78 will be a different story.

457
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:59,000
Making his third try with number 81, two one pitch, hangs high, three and one to Rudy.

458
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:08,000
On Jackson, on Jack Jackson currently is the number two hitter in the American Lake for average behind Rod Carew and just barely behind Carew.

459
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:14,000
The score is 368. Rudy gets the plate. He has the edge on Lee, three and one.

460
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:18,000
The quarterback native on demand, 31 years old, six three, 205 pounds.

461
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:21,000
He winds and the three one pitch to Rudy.

462
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:24,000
Swing and a foul tap at the plate. Bounces into Joe Rudy.

463
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:27,000
To the count goes to three and two.

464
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:35,000
Bill Lee, right time against the Angels with a seven and four record.

465
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:45,000
And last year appears to be getting on the track for Boston against everybody in the American League because in September he had a four and two mark.

466
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:53,000
That smacks his entire win and loss total, five of the All-Star game, which results in four and two.

467
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:57,000
Three two pitch to Rudy. Just outside ball four with a man called.

468
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:02,000
So Rudy draws the walk from Bill Lee. That's the second walk issued by Lee.

469
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:20,000
The leadoff man on into third. Here's Ron Jackson.

470
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,000
Jackson is first time up with a single.

471
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:32,000
The Angels going three times in the first inning. The Boston Red Sox matching it with a three run home run by Dwight Evans in their half of the second.

472
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:37,000
So it's three three in Boston's Fenway Park. The Angels hitting in the top of the third.

473
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:48,000
The big Jackson is outside and Paul Wanderer. Jackson getting three fifty-seven with three home runs and twenty-seven RBI.

474
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:54,000
They also leave the Angels in doubles with him. The big daddy playing with the.

475
00:41:54,000 --> 00:42:02,000
Turn for the.

476
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,000
So I.

477
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,000
Have the play.

478
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,000
I guess Billy.

479
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:23,000
The U.S.

480
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:27,000
The angels hoping that they were able to generate the momentum.

481
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:34,000
At home before taking to the road. They have a long, long road trip in front of them.

482
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:38,000
Four of the last six games and have three come back with them.

483
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:44,000
Way inside of Jackson has to lift his foot out of the way to get out of the way.

484
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:51,000
They got down two and two to Ron Jackson.

485
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:54,000
The Angels.

486
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,000
Step around the injuries.

487
00:42:56,000 --> 00:43:08,000
Say.

488
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:21,000
An awkward.

489
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:25,000
Rulers in the East of the vision. The Eagles a game and a half out of West.

490
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:28,000
Trying to catch the open A.

491
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,000
Starts over the first base.

492
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:33,000
Allegedly throws to Big George Scott.

493
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:36,000
And in plenty of time to get back to the back, Joe Rudy.

494
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:41,000
Jackson up the play by hand. It is slightly closed.

495
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,000
And three two-pitches and he goes.

496
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,000
And a drive across.

497
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:51,000
Jackson hits a fuller and they get swept out as well.

498
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,000
And clears it right on the mound.

499
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,000
And fires over the first base to George Scott.

500
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:02,000
And Rudy was almost down to second base by the time the ball was returning to first.

501
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,000
So a very quick shuffle boy.

502
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:08,000
One three on the liner to Bill Lee.

503
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:12,000
And the taunt over the first base to George Scott.

504
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,000
So Joe Rudy doubled up.

505
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,000
The base is closed for the Angels.

506
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:19,000
That's where Bruckman in the third with two outs.

507
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:22,000
Bruckman walks back in the first.

508
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,000
Hitting two out of gate. One home run. Ten RBI.

509
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,000
The line to the big just flow.

510
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,000
Breaking ball inside. Ball one.

511
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,000
First the D.H. replacing Don Baylor.

512
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,000
And that back will be missed.

513
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,000
And a short two game period in Fenway Park.

514
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:41,000
Because Baylor is Taylor's name for Fenway.

515
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,000
Down low. Two and oh.

516
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,000
Don Baylor's dead full hitter.

517
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:51,000
And he just tattooed that ball all night long.

518
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:54,000
But Baylor with a hamstring full.

519
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,000
And so he's going to be out.

520
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,000
No telling how long. Hopefully just a couple of games.

521
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:00,000
Playing a high chopper.

522
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,000
That's off the glove of the third base for Houghton in the short left field.

523
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:09,000
Making the turn to Bruckman. He'll hang on to just simply retrieve quickly and throws back to the infield.

524
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:13,000
He'll be scored an air five on Butch Houghton.

525
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,000
He tried to cut off the ball in front of Berlton.

526
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:17,000
The short top of the red dot.

527
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:20,000
But in doing so took his eye off the ball.

528
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,000
The ball hit it off his glove.

529
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:24,000
And to the left field.

530
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:25,000
So an E five.

531
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:28,000
And that is the second air of the game for the Red Sox.

532
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,000
So a man home with two men off.

533
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,000
And now Ron Bailey at the plate.

534
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,000
Bailey is one for one.

535
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:35,000
He singles the center.

536
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:36,000
He has the first.

537
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,000
And Bailey with that hit.

538
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:44,000
One of the rare times he's had a chance to come up against left hand hitters this year.

539
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:45,000
And a rare hit for him.

540
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:48,000
He's hitting one twenty-five this year against left handers.

541
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:55,000
Bailey taking advantage of the expertise of Dick Enberg's pre-game guest, Ed Williams.

542
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,000
He and Ted were talking.

543
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,000
Outside the Boston dugout five of the game.

544
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:02,000
What else?

545
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:03,000
Subject hitting.

546
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,000
So Bailey left hander in the play.

547
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,000
Down ball, Milley on the bar.

548
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:11,000
Bending at the weight.

549
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:12,000
Glove on his knee.

550
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,000
The ball on the backhand.

551
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,000
He sets the kick and the pitch.

552
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:18,000
Back ball down low.

553
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:19,000
Ball one.

554
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:22,000
Bailey hitting with two outs.

555
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:23,000
Runner at first base.

556
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,000
That's Merv Rettman.

557
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,000
That's Merv Rettman.

558
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:32,000
The angels and the Boston Reds are tied in the third at three.

559
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,000
Police set the right lift and the pitch.

560
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:36,000
Swing at a bombing ball.

561
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:37,000
Backing up to Scott at first.

562
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:40,000
He dropped it but it's not too far from the back.

563
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:42,000
So he just eggs it with his foot as he recovers.

564
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,000
And the dive retired in the third.

565
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:47,000
He goes out without a hit.

566
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,000
In the half of the third.

567
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:55,000
At the end of two and a half the score will make tied at three.

568
00:46:55,000 --> 00:47:00,000
That was Tomadick and the Fenway Park in Boston where the score is tied at three.

569
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:05,000
The angels with three runs in their half of the first on four hits and one error.

570
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,000
They still strand at three then.

571
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:12,000
The Boston Reds are with their three in the second of the three run home run by Dwight Evanson

572
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,000
which is 14 home runs of the year.

573
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:17,000
And that took him up to 30 in the RBI mark.

574
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:21,000
That's his number three in home runs in the American League this year.

575
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,000
Fred Lynn leading off for Boston in the third.

576
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:26,000
But Jim Reiss and Kyle Yatseski.

577
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:30,000
Well that Boston Reds are trying to get the pace up there.

578
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:31,000
Look at the talent they have.

579
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:35,000
When they're helping for his running he's now going up to pitch a negative one.

580
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,000
Scott is back in for Boston.

581
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,000
He has missed an action.

582
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:45,000
So when you look at that lineup with all the starters in there, breaking ball inside, ball one.

583
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:49,000
Many people say two leadoff men and seven clean up hitters.

584
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,000
And a not far wrong.

585
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:58,000
Fred Lynn leading off for one on mid to the outside corner of the knees for a goal strike one and one.

586
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:04,000
Lynn 319, over one in this game, seven home runs, 27 RBI.

587
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:12,000
Left-hander against the right-hander on the mound for the Angels on Griffin who deals high, two and one.

588
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,000
Lynn, a couple of stats on him.

589
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:18,000
He likes to hit in Boston, likes to hit right-handers.

590
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:23,000
Playing at a foul, play it along to the left side and back into the stands by 13-0.

591
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:26,000
Look out two and two.

592
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:30,000
Lynn's average in Boston last year is 313.

593
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:33,000
You check his breakdown on home runs.

594
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:38,000
You find he is two against left-handers but 16 against right-handers.

595
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,000
And what for him was a tough five years.

596
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,000
Two-two-fifth.

597
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:47,000
Swung into bombing ball right side, blocked by Brich on the edge of the outfield grass and he throws him up.

598
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:50,000
So Fred Lynn put away by Bob Brich.

599
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:52,000
And here's Jim Wright.

600
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:56,000
Jim Wright.

601
00:48:56,000 --> 00:49:01,000
Dwight Cox Brich in the first.

602
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:07,000
Heading of the game, scoring a 321 average, number five in the American League.

603
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:12,000
The ball category right up on top, 19 home runs, 54 RBI.

604
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:19,000
The first pitch, breaking ball high, and the count is one and 0.

605
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:27,000
Jim Wright, got barely reaching his premium years with a ball to Red Sox.

606
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:30,000
Ball inside, the count's ill known.

607
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:36,000
The Red Sox figured it for many years as he now enters his late 20s and early 30s.

608
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:41,000
He will contribute 35 to 40 home runs at least a year.

609
00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:44,000
Over 100 RBI, that probably hits 325.

610
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:47,000
Flaming a one hopper hits sharply to Brich.

611
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:49,000
He has it and throws him up.

612
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:52,000
So Bob Brich is taking care of the first two men.

613
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,000
Up for the Boston Red Sox in the third.

614
00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:56,000
And here's Kyle Dziuski.

615
00:49:56,000 --> 00:50:01,000
Dziuski bounce top to Brich in the first to end Saturday.

616
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:06,000
Kyle, very impressed by Boston this year, as well he could be, third first place by six games,

617
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:13,000
airing today's action, 39 and 19, that's 20 games above 500.

618
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:18,000
Dziuski at the plate, left hand hitter, holding that bet off his back shoulder,

619
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:23,000
high and away with a fast ball by Griffin, 4-1.

620
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:30,000
Kyle says this is the best Boston Red Sox team that he has seen.

621
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:35,000
The one hopper, quick and a miss, one and one.

622
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:42,000
Dziuski has had his cuts against the game, both in his career.

623
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:48,000
His total 30 career home runs against California.

624
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:56,000
Bob, low stance at the plate, the pitch, up high with a fast ball, 2-1 to Dziuski.

625
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:02,000
Dziuski heads into this game with a hitting streak of four straights.

626
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:05,000
Getting the two outs, he's last of the third.

627
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:10,000
Fast ball, missed outside, three and one to Dziuski.

628
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:14,000
Kyle, the first on deck.

629
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:18,000
Tom Griffin looking for his first win as an angel, his first win in the American League.

630
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:21,000
He's working in the tie game at three, in the third.

631
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:28,000
Fast ball outside, ball forward, Dziuski rejects the bat to the fungal circle to the right of home plate.

632
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:30,000
Goes down to first for the wash.

633
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:34,000
For Griffin, that's the first free pass that he's issued this evening.

634
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,000
And it brings up Carlton Fisk.

635
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:43,000
Fisk in the second, foul out to his counterpart, Brian Downing.

636
00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:50,000
Hitting 267, five home runs at 19, RBI.

637
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:55,000
Carlton visiting with relatives because the angels are in town.

638
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:58,000
His brother-in-law is Rick Miller.

639
00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:01,000
Rick married to Carlton's sister, Janet.

640
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:07,000
She'll spend a couple of weeks here in the Boston area and in New Hampshire visiting Carlton and her folks.

641
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:15,000
Swing and a miss and a breaking ball served up by Griffin, one strike to Fisk.

642
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:21,000
Fisk, a very dedicated hitter, if you go into the batting case, the batting practice, and listen to him from time to time,

643
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:30,000
you'll hear him reciting verbal situations, game situations, man on first six, but a man on third with one out.

644
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:39,000
And he'll go down on the whole list of them and try to react accordingly at home plate.

645
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:44,000
Get the ball to the right side, Brian, get it in the air, get the runner on.

646
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:52,000
So Fisk, a thinking man's player outside, and a count to Carlton, one and one.

647
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:56,000
The Reds don't catch your hitting with two outs, a man on, that's Jastrinsky,

648
00:52:56,000 --> 00:53:03,000
issued a free pass, the first walk of the game by Griffin.

649
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:07,000
And down the S. San Diego Padre pitcher on the mound, looking for the time from Downing,

650
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:11,000
who sets the target for the talk over first base and they almost got Jastrinsky.

651
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:17,000
He barely made it back with a dive, as if trying to reach the end of a boat dock

652
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:22,000
and just barely getting on with his fingertips, that's how he was gripping the bat.

653
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:32,000
Now Griffin just barely missed picking him off.

654
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:36,000
Now down Griffin now, back on the rubber, setting his intentions to home plate.

655
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:42,000
Again the time by Downing and the target swinging and a miss, breaking ball outside part of the plate.

656
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:50,000
Waved at a miss by Carlton, Fisk is one and two as Griffin ends the edge.

657
00:53:50,000 --> 00:54:00,000
Outfield against Fisk, deep and around slightly toward left.

658
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:07,000
Boston Reds on and the Angels, first game of a short two game series, they've been playing for another talk over the first base.

659
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:14,000
And back in time, Carl Jastrinsky, one fairly covering at first, Bob Gritch over at second,

660
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:18,000
the Angels have chalked it short and Jackson over at third.

661
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:26,000
Downing behind the plate, time called quickly by home plate umpire Russ Getz, as it was requested by Carl Fisk.

662
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:35,000
The Angels defense rounded out with Broody in left, Bob Dock in center, and Yung Semi Landrow in right.

663
00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:47,000
This now, close stand, Griffin fires over the first base and Jastrinsky back standing up.

664
00:54:47,000 --> 00:55:06,000
Again the set by Griffin, he works the plate, fast ball hangs high and the count, two and two to Carlton Fisk.

665
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:10,000
So far the operator having some difficulty getting to the right count tonight.

666
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:14,000
And the home plate umpire Getz holding up his hands was the correct indication.

667
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:20,000
Another throw over the first base by Griffin, and again Jastrinsky back.

668
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:28,000
A couple fans throwing him, but that's his job, keeping close.

669
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:31,000
Now Fisk reestablishing himself at the plate.

670
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:37,000
The two two-pick to the runner goes, swing and a miss strike three, and Carlton Fisk strikes out.

671
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:42,000
So the sides are tied for the Boston Reds, talks in the food, no runs, no hits, no errors, and one man left.

672
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:47,000
At the end of three in Fenway Park, three-three, Boston and California.

673
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:52,000
Elvis Columbus, Dick Enver, Fenway Park, and Boston for the game is tied at three.

674
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:58,000
The Reds talk, and the Californians lead, Boston three runs on four hits.

675
00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:01,000
The Angels ditto, three runs and four hits.

676
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:05,000
And for the Halos, the man ahead for the fourth is Dave Chalk, Brian Downing,

677
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:13,000
and top of the order is Kenny Landau that pays still leads.

678
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:19,000
The Angels getting a chance to exchange greetings with their teammate, Jerry Remy, who unfortunately can't play in this game.

679
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:26,000
He's going to be at least three more games with an ankle that's injured in Seattle.

680
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:34,000
But Remy's very happy to be in Boston. He of course is a native of Massachusetts, and he feels right at home.

681
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:40,000
Here in Boston, the Reds talk uniform in a pen and paper.

682
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:46,000
Dave Chalk at the plate, the first pitch of breaking ball that they break off, strike one.

683
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:52,000
Chalk, as if they play in five straight, bonneted his way on in the first,

684
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:55,000
and he couldn't have rolled it with his hand, and he vetted.

685
00:56:55,000 --> 00:57:00,000
Guys, the bunnies went on again, it's a foul, and rolls off the catcher,

686
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:05,000
and the fish can over toward the Boston Reds on dugout, so 0-2 on Chalk.

687
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:10,000
Chalk laid it down the third base line, and first was found to urge the ball to go foul,

688
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:17,000
but it stopped just barely on the line.

689
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:22,000
And Chalk over his first base already by the time the momentum of the ball stopped.

690
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:29,000
Playing a bombing ball into the third base with a hot, skinny gloves and guns, it's done.

691
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:35,000
Dave Chalk put out 5-3 by Butch Hopkins and Brian Downing at the plate.

692
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:39,000
White Forest Restation, identification. This is Angels Radio 78.

693
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:43,000
This is the American Forces Radio and Television Service.

694
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:59,000
It's the end of the long dawn.

695
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:06,000
Angels and Red Sox 3-3, top of the fourth, one out, Brian Downing at the plate, all set to go against Bill Lee.

696
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:13,000
The Angels with a barrage of hits yesterday back at Anaheim Stadium as they beat the Yankees 9-6.

697
00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:19,000
16 hits for the Angels, it looked like they were going to duplicate that in this game as they got off with 4 hits

698
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:22,000
and 3 runs in the very first inning.

699
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:25,000
Downing at the plate, takes 4-1.

700
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:31,000
So it's the last two times around, but the second down, 1-2-3, and no action in the fifth either.

701
00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:37,000
There's a slow curve at the knees for a call strike from the inside corner.

702
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:44,000
Downing at 238 hitters, 2 home runs, 7 RBI, all for one in this game, he's flying out to center.

703
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:46,000
A tapper hits back to the pitcher, Bill Lee.

704
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:51,000
Quirrells and Quirrells are in the first base, and there are two of the Angels in the fourth.

705
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:54,000
A lead coming off the mound, a good feeling pitcher.

706
00:58:54,000 --> 00:59:01,000
The first base climb, the draw of that tapper, and the quarter-o and throw to George Scott at first.

707
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:18,000
Two down for the Angels on the fourth, and the top of the order, up in my draw.

708
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:24,000
Getting left hand hitting, gets the left hand early, swing and a bounding ball, left to Scott, just 50-mills over the first base.

709
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:27,000
From the side, retired, 1-2-3.

710
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:31,000
Angels go to the fourth, at the end of 3-1-2, 3-3.

711
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:37,000
The Angels and Red Sox contrasted as they began the first game in a long series of games for 18.

712
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:44,000
The Angels with their longest road trip of the year, 14 games for Boston Red Sox with their longest home stand of the year.

713
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:52,000
It begins tonight in Fenway Park, George Scott at the right, and Jack Rowhammer and Dwight Evans in the left-hand half of the fourth.

714
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:57,000
The game starts pretty good, a lead team with four hits so far tonight.

715
00:59:57,000 --> 01:00:02,000
The Red Sox scoring in spectacular, although narrow fashion.

716
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:08,000
Dwight Evans with a three-munt home run into the net, a shot to Green Monster in left field here at Fenway Park.

717
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:13,000
It was very much win 80, a very strong wind blowing out toward the Green Monster.

718
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:17,000
George Scott takes down Rowam and outside for a one.

719
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:24,000
A breeze at game time of 17 miles per hour, he's blowing so strong the big American flag is pulling at that black ball.

720
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:30,000
It's wading in the breeze of black ball that's back for inside, and you can hear the reaction from the crowd here at Fenway.

721
01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:33,000
2-0 to Scott.

722
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:39,000
George Black here is one of the music incidents at Fenway because he hit a home run.

723
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:47,000
There's just no question about it. He hit a home run to straightaway center field, but there's a perpendicular line that designates playing and a line drive.

724
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:51,000
He hits, it's a short shot, that is his second hit.

725
01:00:51,000 --> 01:00:53,000
Up and up, two for two.

726
01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:56,000
Both of them line drive to right field.

727
01:00:56,000 --> 01:01:08,000
Scott last year against the Angels with a home run that was to the right of a perpendicular line which separates the Green Monster from a shorter wall about half the size of their 37-foot block.

728
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:13,000
But the umpire didn't see it. Scott as he was circling the base was trying to tell him it's out.

729
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:24,000
He was doing the umpire's cause, boiling his hand, it's out, he's pointing to the wall, and he was so busy trying to tell the umpire he was wrong he missed a chance inside the black hole run because the Angels didn't pursue it in the outfield.

730
01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:25,000
That happened last year.

731
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:31,000
First pitch is in there at the knees, outside corner for a called strike one to Jack Grohamer.

732
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:33,000
Grohamer a hot hitter.

733
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:41,000
11 straight game, 2-9 coming in, one home run, and 10 RBIs, and he has the singles so far tonight.

734
01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:46,000
Back in the second, he and Scott brought home the three run home run by Evans.

735
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:52,000
Swing in the mid, mid-time that pitch, and a count on two.

736
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:57,000
Grohamer getting a chance to play because of the injury to Jerry Remmits.

737
01:01:57,000 --> 01:02:04,000
The strain of Remmits ankle, quite twisting of it.

738
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:17,000
Jack Grohamer up against Tom Griffin, who kicks and delivers way outside and down the half to scramble off to his left of the sphere of effort.

739
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:28,000
George Scott leading off the fourth with a single, game tied at three, Fenway Park in Boston, blasts up the fourth. Jack Grohamer has to play, the count one and two.

740
01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:33,000
Griffin sets and delivers outside, two and two.

741
01:02:33,000 --> 01:02:36,000
A check of the scoreboard, other actions today.

742
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:41,000
In progress, Baltimore and Seattle, and the Orioles lead 3-0.

743
01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:42,000
They have played three.

744
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:47,000
Eddie Murray with his tenth home run of the year, that's the difference in the game. It came in the third with two men off.

745
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:49,000
So Murray a three run home run.

746
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:55,000
Griffin fires over to first base, and George Scott, obviously no base-stealing threat.

747
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:59,000
Now with all the luggage he's carrying, he's back in front of you, Scott.

748
01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:01,000
Two-two pitch, inside.

749
01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:08,000
Scott again fires, and it was not the second day Jim Groome was in.

750
01:03:08,000 --> 01:03:12,000
A score of a wild pitch.

751
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:18,000
George Scott in scoring position represents a potential tie-breaking run in the fourth.

752
01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:24,000
Elsewhere on the make-up and scoreboard, Detroit leads to a walk in three to two at the end of a hitting and a half.

753
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:29,000
There have already been three home runs in that game.

754
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:36,000
Tom Griffin, who is victimized by Dwight Evans in the second for a three run blast, stands to the morrow.

755
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:42,000
Check George Scott, the pitch, swinging a tamper foul to the right of home plate.

756
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:46,000
Tom Fultz on Jack Brohamer on the red side.

757
01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:53,000
In the Detroit-Nowakie game, Tom with his ninth home run, Thompson his fifteenth, Thomas his thirteenth.

758
01:03:53,000 --> 01:04:00,000
Jason Thompson goes into a tie for second place with John Favis in the American League home run for a.

759
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:06,000
Scott for the conservative league, now he has to drop to second.

760
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:10,000
The three-two pitch by the left, the left is in the middle by Brohamer.

761
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:14,000
The score of the play is cut off by Fairley, but Scott will run straight for third.

762
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:31,000
The run is the first and third with nobody out in the fourth, and here comes Dwight Evans.

763
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:43,000
For Devon, who's provided the fireworks for the walk tonight, a three run blast is 14th of the year, pulling his IVI total up to 30.

764
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:47,000
Dwight Evans always seems to hit the easy way.

765
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:49,000
He's a cap for his nine.

766
01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:53,000
Blast is 393, and it was two home runs against California.

767
01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:59,000
He has hit home runs in two consecutive games, and was 13th yesterday.

768
01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:02,000
Now with the fans shutting the rhythmical bars and Fenway Park,

769
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:07,000
he backs off the mound and now wants to conference with his catcher, Ryan Downing.

770
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:12,000
Nobody out, two men on, game tied 3-3, blast off the board.

771
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:16,000
The American late for the New York Yankees has won an inning and a half with Oakland,

772
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:20,000
so scoring that game is Kehoe against Gidry.

773
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:27,000
Later on, a couple of jumpies hang those, Texas and Kansas City in Royal Stadium.

774
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:36,000
And Cleveland will play Chicago, also the better off, the pitch, a 5-0-1 for the fastball.

775
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:43,000
John Griffin in a jam, nobody out, two men on, four-setting, game tied at three.

776
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:47,000
And Dwight Evans threw home runs off of him back in the second at the plate.

777
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:53,000
Evans closed hands, right hand hitter, the pitch, Clinton hit a foul back to the screen.

778
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:56,000
And a cap for him once.

779
01:05:56,000 --> 01:06:02,000
Evans with that home run, he did safely in six straight games.

780
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:09,000
The Angels will try to turn the double play so they're a double play depth.

781
01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:18,000
They'll give up the run, Scott at third, Texas weighing it down low, and the Count's doing one.

782
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:22,000
Back about three steps from the outfield grass to short is Dave Sharp.

783
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:29,000
Rich about four steps from the grass over at second base, both pitched in toward the middle,

784
01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:33,000
and Evans will hit it on the ground and out in the air, the pitch, swing, and a checker

785
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:36,000
playing off the facing of the fastball to your right.

786
01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:39,000
Gloves on the fly by Matt, actually, on the rebound.

787
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:41,000
Two and two.

788
01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:49,000
The boomer, George Scott at third, Jack Brohammer at first.

789
01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:51,000
Fairly holding Brohammer at first.

790
01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:55,000
Jackson playing off one, and back of the bag at third.

791
01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:59,000
The middle of the infield double play depth.

792
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:04,000
So Scott will score on the ground ball, hit toward the pitch.

793
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:10,000
In there for a cold strike play, a slider by Tom Griffin caught Evans looking.

794
01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:15,000
The scales balancing as Evans with a three-run home run in the second,

795
01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:21,000
and now pound of flesh for Tom Griffin in the fourth as he catches Evans looking.

796
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:25,000
That's the second strike out tonight for Griffin.

797
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:28,000
That's only one out in the fourth for the Boston Red Sox,

798
01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:31,000
and it's pushed Optin for number nine here at the plate.

799
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:34,000
Optin for the rebound, home run, the 35, high of the eyes,

800
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:39,000
and he's hitting nine for this power-packed Boston Red Sox lineup.

801
01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:46,000
Holds that bat high, swing, and a miss, a high fastball served up by Griffin.

802
01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:56,000
Optin holding that bat high, almost a mirror image of Carl Jaczemski when he does that.

803
01:07:56,000 --> 01:08:00,000
Two-sixty-two to go on with those 11 home runs and 35 rebbies.

804
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:03,000
Down low, one and one.

805
01:08:03,000 --> 01:08:07,000
Optin, the free swinger, while he'll pick up those home runs,

806
01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:09,000
will also pick up strikeouts.

807
01:08:09,000 --> 01:08:16,000
He's got a 12-record of 162 last year.

808
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:20,000
Activity now in the Angel Bullpen, 10-grat-crowing, breaking ball,

809
01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:25,000
left side, two and one to Optin.

810
01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:32,000
Optin last year, 30 home runs for the Red Sox, 112 high of the eyes.

811
01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:37,000
Oddly enough, no home runs against the Angels.

812
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:41,000
Let's take a look at just about everybody else in the American League.

813
01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:46,000
Two-one pitch, leg of a bounding call, into the short shot, he's got it.

814
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:49,000
Throw ball to first base, got it, got it, everybody.

815
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:57,000
Second short, Scott Storrs, and the Red Sox lead it 4-3.

816
01:08:57,000 --> 01:08:59,000
Now you have to feel for Tom Griffin.

817
01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:01,000
He did exactly what the pitcher wanted to do.

818
01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:04,000
He struck out Evans, with runners at first and third,

819
01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:06,000
and served up a made-order double play.

820
01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:15,000
Wait a shot, but in his haste to make two, he got none, and the Red Sox are in front.

821
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:19,000
George Scott Storrs is 4-3, Optin.

822
01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:23,000
At second base, Jack Rohanford, Optin's statement first,

823
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:27,000
to the air by Dave Schalks, at the top of the order up in Rick Berlton.

824
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:31,000
Berlton one for two, waste of the play.

825
01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:36,000
Down the baller.

826
01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:38,000
The Red Sox with a great break.

827
01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:42,000
The Angles should have gotten out of this inning on a double play.

828
01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:44,000
Dave Schalks couldn't find the handles.

829
01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:50,000
He's charged for the net, and a run score.

830
01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:54,000
And his teammates, Tom Griffin still on the hook.

831
01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:56,000
4-3, Boston.

832
01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:58,000
Berlton waits.

833
01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:04,000
The kickoff attempt not made to second base as Bobby Griffin running over towards the bag at second.

834
01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:13,000
Griffin world stepped off the rubber, but did not throw to second.

835
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:15,000
Rohanford second.

836
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:17,000
Optin at first, the pitch.

837
01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:20,000
Outside breaking ball for Berlton.

838
01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:25,000
Two and on the record.

839
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:28,000
Berlton was only three home runs, but he hit number three yesterday.

840
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:32,000
Downing California as the sixth game hitting streak goes.

841
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:34,000
One for two in this game.

842
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:35,000
He wins.

843
01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:36,000
Close stance, right hand hitter.

844
01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:37,000
A long fly ball.

845
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:39,000
Hit the deep end to the side, going back.

846
01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:41,000
The warning, he makes the catch.

847
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:44,000
Reans up against the wall, goes back to the infield.

848
01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:47,000
One run, he will tag and go to third.

849
01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:53,000
Rohanford third base, remaining at first, put Optin on a towering deep fly ball.

850
01:10:53,000 --> 01:11:04,000
Hits a straightaway center field and a warning track, the base of the wall by Rick Berlton.

851
01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:07,000
What is the first to third now with two outs.

852
01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:13,000
As Griffin getting the advantage of the deep center field area.

853
01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:17,000
He and Fenway Park, although that was not the deepest part to go apart.

854
01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:24,000
He's going to chain around toward right center field and there's a little corner out there, that's 420 to U.S.

855
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:27,000
That one was 20 deep.

856
01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:30,000
Red lead up, lift, hole for two.

857
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:31,000
He wakes.

858
01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:32,000
What is the first to third?

859
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:38,000
Two outs, down low, downing for the nice stop.

860
01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:41,000
Red lead 319, seven home runs, 27 RBI.

861
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:43,000
He's got hits low and broad.

862
01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:46,000
And hits right hand as well.

863
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:50,000
He's got to keep the wood back and forth.

864
01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:54,000
The pitch, wing, center foul back.

865
01:11:54,000 --> 01:12:00,000
Turns off the screen, back to the ball board, behind home plate, one and one.

866
01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:05,000
Down Griffin, on the fight he's way out of it without any more damage being done in one run.

867
01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:09,000
And he should have gotten out of his inning with no one scoring.

868
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:13,000
But Dave Shaw put in a double play ball.

869
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:14,000
Griffin's set.

870
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:20,000
The leg left hand in the pitch, check, wing, looper, that in the pitch, foul, by inches, wide on third base.

871
01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:22,000
Jackson going over trying to backhand.

872
01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:25,000
It was a very difficult play for him.

873
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:33,000
The angels lucky the ball was foul, one and two.

874
01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:37,000
Glynn checking his bats just to the right of home plate.

875
01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:41,000
Now tapping it against the sole of his shoes, cleaning his spikes.

876
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:47,000
Digging back in, left hand hitter against the right-handed Griffin.

877
01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:50,000
But Thompson on the air over first base.

878
01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:52,000
Jack Brohammer is third.

879
01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:54,000
Tops over to first base.

880
01:12:54,000 --> 01:13:02,000
And back in time, but Thompson.

881
01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:04,000
Angels and red shots.

882
01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:14,000
In the second lead, 4-3. He just barely did mention to him to.

883
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:18,000
You know, really a couple of steps to the warning track in front of that scoreboard.

884
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:21,000
On the green mark steering in left field.

885
01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:24,000
Blocked off, straight away center.

886
01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:28,000
Kenny Landrell, off the line, well off the line and right.

887
01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:53,000
Glynn a high five, hit the left field, what was the win? It's John.

888
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:58,000
The double play for him is Justin Campbell, he's got the ball in front of him.

889
01:13:58,000 --> 01:14:01,000
The second three run home run of the game.

890
01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:05,000
This one by Fred Lynn, really getting close to wide effort.

891
01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:14,000
The bases are clean, and the Boston Red Sox have jumped out in front with four runs in their half of the fourth.

892
01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:19,000
And they lead it, 7-3.

893
01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:24,000
John is up for the plate now, but the top home run hitter in the American League, Jim Wright.

894
01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:28,000
He's going to miss. High outside fastball, all right.

895
01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:30,000
One strike.

896
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:32,000
Nineteen home runs for Jim.

897
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:36,000
54 on the eyes, leads the American League in those two categories.

898
01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:42,000
One after a breaking ball that broke low and inside, it's going to.

899
01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:50,000
Fred Lynn, a left hand hitter, going to the opposite field, getting the ball onto the wind, over the wall, into the screen.

900
01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:53,000
Home run.

901
01:14:53,000 --> 01:15:02,000
Griffin deals up high, one and two to right.

902
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:04,000
A tough break for Griffin.

903
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:13,000
He's still going out of his inning. Checked wing line, look out, looks like it may have hit someone right behind home plate. Now they're checking the young man.

904
01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:16,000
And apparently he's shaken up a bit.

905
01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:20,000
Also concerned is Jim Wright, who's looking into the stands, the five rows deep.

906
01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:26,000
Just to the right of the protective screen, the young man wearing a baseball cap.

907
01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:30,000
And he looks to be a little shaken up, although it doesn't appear to be seriously hurt.

908
01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:33,000
So Wright turns his attention to the mound, and picks it down Griffin.

909
01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:37,000
The one, two, fifth. Wing and a miss right through.

910
01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:39,000
The Griffin out of the inning.

911
01:15:39,000 --> 01:15:43,000
But the horses are out of the barn because four runs score.

912
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:47,000
A three run home run by Fred Lynn, big blow in the fourth.

913
01:15:47,000 --> 01:16:04,000
And at the end of fourth complete in Boston, it's seven three Red Sox.

914
01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:11,000
Now listen on the deck end for a Fenway-Boston Boston with the Red Sox are on top by a four, seven runs, seven hits, two heads, four Bostons for the Angels.

915
01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:14,000
Three runs, four hits and one cross clear.

916
01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:17,000
It's the top of the best and here's Dick. All right, Al, you can't hear the Red Sox.

917
01:16:17,000 --> 01:16:21,000
A five out inning, which that missed double play amounted to.

918
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:25,000
And they took advantage as they have three unearned runs to match the Angels' three unearned runs.

919
01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:28,000
They scored in the first inning off. Bill Lee hasn't allowed to get sent.

920
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:31,000
A lot of greats will try to start things. Takes a through ball for a strike.

921
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:34,000
Rich is mounted to third and Lyon to George.

922
01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:36,000
So Lee down three nothing after one.

923
01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:38,000
Sees his teammates tied in the second on Dwight Evans.

924
01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:43,000
Three run homers and Fred Lynn, Boston Eric, gets four home in the fourth inning.

925
01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:45,000
Roll curve ball, grounded foul.

926
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:48,000
Rich just couldn't wait that long and fouls it into the Angel dugout.

927
01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:50,000
Two strikes to get up.

928
01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:56,000
That's a good enough three runs on four hits, Boston Eric, and they'd all the runs unearned in the first inning.

929
01:16:56,000 --> 01:17:01,000
The Angels do not have a hit sent off Lee.

930
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:03,000
Looking for his eighth one of the year.

931
01:17:03,000 --> 01:17:05,000
Six for eight, two under five pounders.

932
01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:07,000
Flings into the lineup, the two strike bet.

933
01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:13,000
Click of the line drive foul into the first row of box seats beyond the Angel dugout.

934
01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:16,000
Down on ground, Fenway Park and Lawson.

935
01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:20,000
Where the Red Sox, towards this team, has built to fit this park.

936
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:22,000
A lot of right-handed power.

937
01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:29,000
They have taken a seven to three lead as they shoot for their 23rd home win against only four Lawson.

938
01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:32,000
A windup and a hit. Outside, it's the state of that one.

939
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:34,000
Off the corner.

940
01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:36,000
Lee and Fisk the battery.

941
01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:38,000
Thompson a third, roll from the shortstop.

942
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:40,000
Brohammer and Scott on the right side of the infield.

943
01:17:40,000 --> 01:17:42,000
They each have two hits apiece.

944
01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:44,000
Gads and left, Flynn and Seder, heaven's at right.

945
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,000
The pitch. Swing and a foul.

946
01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:50,000
Gritz, Jeff, and Shiv get a piece of the high curve ball.

947
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:52,000
Gritz, Bott, Sack, and Rudy.

948
01:17:52,000 --> 01:17:53,000
In the Angels' fifth inning.

949
01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:58,000
We told you, Connie Lampert, the Angels talented young rookie third baseman will be out for probably three to four weeks

950
01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:00,000
with a sprained thumb and ligament damage.

951
01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:04,000
They've called up Dave Mechamer, the Pacific Coast League's leading hitter.

952
01:18:04,000 --> 01:18:09,000
The pitch. Well, curve ball, and it's a high fly ball to the shortstop.

953
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:14,000
Little soft fly ball to Rick Wilson who pedaled out on the grass and made the catch.

954
01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:18,000
And then a case again of the Angel hitter not able to wait long enough for it.

955
01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:21,000
He hit it off the end of the bat. He just couldn't wait.

956
01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:24,000
And that's part of the style of Lee when he gets it going.

957
01:18:24,000 --> 01:18:28,000
If he gets the end figure, then he can throw it that slow.

958
01:18:28,000 --> 01:18:33,000
One out, Lyman Bott, Sack, and Trout at twice. Two short and a bird.

959
01:18:33,000 --> 01:18:35,000
Lee pumps left-hander, hands left-hander. The pitch.

960
01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:38,000
Slow curve is in there.

961
01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:40,000
The Angels got their way to the first inning.

962
01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:42,000
Out of there, Landro Cabe on Scott there.

963
01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:44,000
Two out, double by Rudy, case Landro home.

964
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:47,000
Then Jackson single, Bretman walks out fairly.

965
01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:50,000
Hit a base and throw to single the right setter.

966
01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:53,000
High with a fastball is Lee. It's one and one.

967
01:18:53,000 --> 01:18:55,000
Singles by Scott and Brohammer.

968
01:18:55,000 --> 01:19:00,000
An Evans fly ball home run into the screener left side at for Boston in the second inning.

969
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:05,000
And singles by Scott and Brohammer. And Ayers starts to chuck out one run in as they force.

970
01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:07,000
There's a line right face at left center field.

971
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:11,000
That's 12 games in a row now for Bott stock who turns first and holds.

972
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:15,000
And Jazz gets his throw into the end field.

973
01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:18,000
Lyman Bott's stock getting 2.74 to start.

974
01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:21,000
Singles to left center field. And here's Joe Rudy.

975
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:22,000
And of course, one point.

976
01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:24,000
He gets himself right back in the ball game at Fenway.

977
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:27,000
And Joe Rudy's a man who has that potential.

978
01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:31,000
He doubled off the base at the wall at left center field his first time up to drive in a run.

979
01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:58,000
And Brough in the third inning.

980
01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:05,000
Rudy settles in.

981
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:08,000
Bott stock with one out at first base. Scott holding him on.

982
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:12,000
Brohammer second. And Brough from the short stuff will squeeze forward.

983
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:13,000
Working for the double play.

984
01:20:13,000 --> 01:20:15,000
Hobson guarding the line deep at third.

985
01:20:15,000 --> 01:20:18,000
Lee straightens. Left hander comes to the plate.

986
01:20:18,000 --> 01:20:20,000
And it's a line right face at the right field.

987
01:20:20,000 --> 01:20:24,000
Bott stock will move to second and hold as Evans huckles the throw in.

988
01:20:24,000 --> 01:20:28,000
And the Angels have a back to back singles by Bott stock and Rudy.

989
01:20:28,000 --> 01:20:31,000
Good one out here in the fifth inning.

990
01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:35,000
And Joe Rudy, that's the kind of Rudy that will start hitting like he knows he can.

991
01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:38,000
Guy will go to the off the field with that outside pitch.

992
01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:41,000
So Ron Jackson comes up. He has the line single to left.

993
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:45,000
And with Rudy at first base in the third inning, hit a bullet back to the middle.

994
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:46,000
Appear to be a two-based hit.

995
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:52,000
And Lee in self-defense threw up the glove, caught it cleanly, and doubled up Rudy easily.

996
01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:54,000
One of the fastest double plays you'll ever see.

997
01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:59,000
The sound of mitt was quack, quack, and it was Lee catching it and throwing the shot.

998
01:20:59,000 --> 01:21:01,000
Curveball in there.

999
01:21:01,000 --> 01:21:05,000
So he's starting almost every hitter with a big, slow curveball.

1000
01:21:05,000 --> 01:21:10,000
That set up the rhythm of all the rest of his pitches.

1001
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:13,000
Seven to three Boston Leeds, two on one out.

1002
01:21:13,000 --> 01:21:14,000
Swing and a ground ball toward the hole.

1003
01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:16,000
Hobson has it, goes to second for one.

1004
01:21:16,000 --> 01:21:17,000
Throw hammer back to first.

1005
01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:18,000
They throw it into the dugout.

1006
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:20,000
And a run will score.

1007
01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:25,000
So the Angels get a break as Rudy breaking up the double play, and it would have been to.

1008
01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:26,000
Went in to throw hammer.

1009
01:21:26,000 --> 01:21:28,000
And it was a legal slide.

1010
01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:33,000
And so in the Naked League games this year, they've called the double play when that runner goes out of the baseline.

1011
01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:35,000
So the Angels get a break there.

1012
01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:37,000
A run scores Bontak.

1013
01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:40,000
And you can credit Jackson with a no-RBI.

1014
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:42,000
He's safe at second base.

1015
01:21:42,000 --> 01:21:45,000
It's an 8 all the way.

1016
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:46,000
He'll have his choice.

1017
01:21:46,000 --> 01:21:49,000
E4.

1018
01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:54,000
Braddock scoring from second base.

1019
01:21:54,000 --> 01:21:58,000
And Jackson has second in scoring position for Mo Rechman.

1020
01:21:58,000 --> 01:22:01,000
As the Angels trail Boston by three, seven to four.

1021
01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:03,000
It's a big run at second base.

1022
01:22:03,000 --> 01:22:06,000
Rechman has lost and safe on an error by Gwen Thompson.

1023
01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:11,000
Red Sox committed their third error of the game.

1024
01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:13,000
The set by Lee.

1025
01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:15,000
Checkback at Janssen.

1026
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:16,000
And here comes the pitch.

1027
01:22:16,000 --> 01:22:19,000
A ground ball toward the hole that's going to be back headed by Burlton.

1028
01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:20,000
He plants.

1029
01:22:20,000 --> 01:22:21,000
He throws.

1030
01:22:21,000 --> 01:22:22,000
And he hits it.

1031
01:22:22,000 --> 01:22:23,000
Oh my.

1032
01:22:23,000 --> 01:22:25,000
A big call by Dick Rimmelgen.

1033
01:22:25,000 --> 01:22:26,000
But he's dead.

1034
01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:29,000
Here comes Jim Fregosi out to argue.

1035
01:22:29,000 --> 01:22:31,000
The Angels skipper will talk to the boss.

1036
01:22:31,000 --> 01:22:33,000
Clear the first base post first.

1037
01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:35,000
And Fregosi has got him.

1038
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:37,000
And Fregosi just turns and goes back to the Nugget.

1039
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:39,000
A fine play by Burlton.

1040
01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:40,000
Deep in the hole.

1041
01:22:40,000 --> 01:22:42,000
He's got a great arm.

1042
01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:48,000
And he's used it royally to throw out Rechman by Wicker at first base.

1043
01:22:48,000 --> 01:22:50,000
There was a halfway mark in this one.

1044
01:22:50,000 --> 01:22:51,000
Four and a half innings in the book.

1045
01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:53,000
And the Angels score a run on two hits.

1046
01:22:53,000 --> 01:22:57,000
One error lead one in Boston 7 and the Angels 4.

1047
01:22:57,000 --> 01:23:04,000
New picture for the Angels now is Ken Bradd who started his major league career in the Boston Red Sox organization.

1048
01:23:04,000 --> 01:23:06,000
Signed out of El Segundo, California.

1049
01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:10,000
The older brother of Kansas City's Sterling Third Baseman George Bradd.

1050
01:23:10,000 --> 01:23:13,000
Ken warms up with Brian Downing.

1051
01:23:13,000 --> 01:23:20,000
And we'll see if he's going to be able to get a shot in the bottom of the fifth inning with a score of Boston 7 and the Angels 4.

1052
01:23:20,000 --> 01:23:24,000
Now Griffin goes four innings, allows seven runs, four in the first.

1053
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:27,000
Seven hits, walk one, struck out three.

1054
01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:35,000
And Griffin has to be talking to himself down in the clubhouse at the moment because he was running to first and third in a tie game in the bottom of the fourth inning of three.

1055
01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:40,000
He struck out Evans and then induced Thompson to hit what appeared to be a double play ball at shortstop.

1056
01:23:40,000 --> 01:23:42,000
He would have been out of the inning the game so tight at three.

1057
01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:44,000
Instead, Scott booted the ball.

1058
01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:49,000
The Red Sox got their two extra outs and immediately converted them into four runs.

1059
01:23:49,000 --> 01:23:54,000
One of those came home on a Thompson's on ball error to Scott.

1060
01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:56,000
And then a three run blast by Fred Lynn.

1061
01:23:56,000 --> 01:24:05,000
And actually a fly ball that he just lifted to the left and the wind blew it about five feet above the top of the wall into the screen.

1062
01:24:05,000 --> 01:24:08,000
Yastrinsky up and a pitch by Bradd is rounded toward second.

1063
01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:11,000
In the clean heart by Gritch, almost went through his legs.

1064
01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:14,000
He's thrown him out of the three steps.

1065
01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:18,000
Yant has got his second mark and now that easy tap to Bob Gritch.

1066
01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:21,000
Thompson's fifth can throw it out and struck out.

1067
01:24:21,000 --> 01:24:26,000
Scott, you're in first. Scott, you're in first.

1068
01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:31,000
Checking the scores in the National League, Atlanta leads St. Louis one to nothing after five.

1069
01:24:31,000 --> 01:24:35,000
Chicago two, Cincinnati nothing at the bottom of the fourth of Cincinnati.

1070
01:24:35,000 --> 01:24:37,000
Pittsburgh scores top of the first at Houston.

1071
01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:40,000
Phillies one, Dodgers nothing after three in Los Angeles.

1072
01:24:40,000 --> 01:24:43,000
Wazinski, he's been on a chair, his 13th home run of the year.

1073
01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:45,000
The wind up, a pitch by Bradd.

1074
01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:52,000
Get the high five on the center, back up by Kaki Avro, makes the cat baiting away on the warning tap, almost misjudged that.

1075
01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:57,000
At the last moment had to leap up and make the play over his shoulder as the wind carried that one well.

1076
01:24:57,000 --> 01:25:08,000
The flag on the left-hand field is darkened out toward that three monster as the wind blowing always gets around 20 miles an hour.

1077
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:10,000
Going in hard now to that goal right ball.

1078
01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:18,000
George Scott, two line drive single, scored two runs. In fact he has nine in both rallies, the three-run rally in the second and the four runs in the fourth.

1079
01:25:18,000 --> 01:25:22,000
Seven to four, Boston a pitch, blown inside by Bradd.

1080
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:27,000
That's the flag at San Diego tonight, no report and this afternoon the Giants got a one-hitter by Ed Hylicki.

1081
01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:31,000
Cut out Montreal one-nothing. Giants got only three hits to victory against Steve Rogers.

1082
01:25:31,000 --> 01:25:35,000
There's a change in their first strike, one-on-one.

1083
01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:38,000
White's on quick, Cleveland one-nothing after one in Chicago.

1084
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:41,000
Texas has a one-nothing lead at Kansas City after one and a half.

1085
01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:44,000
Outside ball two, two and one to George Scott.

1086
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:51,000
Willie Randolph has hit a second home of the year for the Yankees and a third to give New York a one-nothing lead against Oakland after three.

1087
01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:53,000
The pitch, third ball, fouled out of play.

1088
01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:59,000
In that game at Yankee Stadium, Ron Gidry is trying to win his tenth game with Ottawa this year.

1089
01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:02,000
Little much hander from Louisiana, nine and oh.

1090
01:26:02,000 --> 01:26:05,000
Detroit leads Milwaukee four to three after three.

1091
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:08,000
Minnesota, Toronto, not underway, rains up at Toronto.

1092
01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:12,000
And Baltimore still leading Seattle three-nothing after five and a half.

1093
01:26:12,000 --> 01:26:17,000
The pitch by Bradd swings in a miss and a high back wall and Ken Webb restores the motors.

1094
01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:21,000
Here's a defending as the Red Sox go down one, two, three for the first time in the game.

1095
01:26:21,000 --> 01:26:26,000
And after five it's underway. Red Sox seven, Angel four.

1096
01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:36,000
The man is a darned member of the Boston Red Sox with no lead.

1097
01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:44,000
The official history of record after by then got made a change bringing in big right-handed Bob Stanley from the Boston Bulls.

1098
01:26:44,000 --> 01:26:52,000
So the line on the two starters, now Griffin and the Angels four runs, about seven runs, four of which.

1099
01:26:52,000 --> 01:26:56,000
We're earned with seven hits, one loss, three strikeouts.

1100
01:26:56,000 --> 01:27:03,000
Bill Lee went right in and four runs all unearned, six hits, one two, and struck out none.

1101
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:07,000
Ron Bailey will be the first man to bounce Stanley's faces.

1102
01:27:07,000 --> 01:27:15,000
Stanley, an excellent record in 18 appearances, has four wins, only one loss, three saves, and a 2.80 ERA.

1103
01:27:15,000 --> 01:27:18,000
Take eyes on the natural thinkers.

1104
01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:25,000
And the starter, the BT Angels, in a prime ball game here last summer.

1105
01:27:25,000 --> 01:27:33,000
Stanley lights into the bulls end where he's used his middle reliever and his long relief.

1106
01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:36,000
Stanley knocked in two runs with a single back in the first.

1107
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:37,000
Then he's hit by Stanley.

1108
01:27:37,000 --> 01:27:40,000
He's going to drive into right center field, hit pretty well Evans and Lynn on their horses.

1109
01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:43,000
It's Lynn racing. Lee Dangin can't get it. It's off the wall.

1110
01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:47,000
Oh, Lynn hit the wall very hard and in the second goes Stanley with a double.

1111
01:27:47,000 --> 01:27:49,000
And let's hope Fred Leonard is okay.

1112
01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:56,000
As he meant for that one-handed catch, he slammed into the padded barrier in front of the Boston Bulls end and he hit it hard.

1113
01:27:56,000 --> 01:28:03,000
He's on his knees and his conches and taken, hopefully not a serious injury.

1114
01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:09,000
Over to a 10-2, the right fielder, Dwight Evans, and now the Boston trainer gets there, is Lynn.

1115
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:20,000
That's like a wide receiver going on a 20-yard hook pattern and as he goes up to catch the ball, somebody comes up from behind and just glams it full bore.

1116
01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:25,000
And Lynn's shaken. Former outstanding football star himself.

1117
01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:32,000
And trying to gather his faculties as a Boston Red Sox Bulls end anxiously watching.

1118
01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:34,000
He steps to his feet now.

1119
01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:39,000
Now Stanley is okay. We'll see him again.

1120
01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:59,000
Lynn getting a hand as he's escorted back to his defensive position in center field by the trainer.

1121
01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:04,000
Oh, that's good news. You hate to see anyone in this game get hurt like that.

1122
01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:11,000
A superstar like Lynn, shaking his right arm as he goes back to position.

1123
01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:16,000
It appeared he was trying to catch that ball as he raced from center field into right center.

1124
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:24,000
And he's starting to backhand his leaping try, just missed the ball, and then his next step took him right into the wall in front of the Boston Bulls end.

1125
01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:29,000
So barely a second base with a double. He's two for three as he greets Stanley on his first hit.

1126
01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:37,000
Seven to four Boston in the sixth inning. Now right side, Scott to his right to field it. Stanley covering. The flip is stopped by Stanley and dropped his day.

1127
01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:46,000
Stanley goes to third. So that's going to be the fourth error of the game for Boston as Stanley dropped that underhand part from George Scott.

1128
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:57,000
Scott with an assist, but the air goes to Stanley. And the Angels, certainly with no enough, bring the tie run to the plate.

1129
01:29:57,000 --> 01:30:04,000
Seven to four score. Unusual total up there for Boston Red Sox. Seven runs, seven hits, and four errors.

1130
01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:10,000
The Angels taking advantage of a couple of them to score four underhands runs off Bill Lee.

1131
01:30:10,000 --> 01:30:17,000
Brian Downing with runners at first and third, no enough. Right-handed hitting catcher is flied out and tapped to the mound.

1132
01:30:17,000 --> 01:30:23,000
Stanley looks in, gets the sign, and held his fifth. Runners leap from the corner and it's a hit.

1133
01:30:23,000 --> 01:30:26,000
Outside with a flat-out back wall.

1134
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:33,000
Austin just off the back and third. Wilson and Broham are looking for two off the middle. Scott anchored at first base, holding on short.

1135
01:30:33,000 --> 01:30:39,000
The outfield has taken the pole for Downing. The pitch. Breaking ball in there. One and one.

1136
01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:48,000
Downing the wide open stance. And as the pitch is made, steps even more down that third base line, and that curveball's caught the inside corner.

1137
01:30:48,000 --> 01:30:53,000
Stanley settles at the waist. The one-one set. Swing and a foul into the glove.

1138
01:30:53,000 --> 01:31:00,000
Catcher's count of six is one and two. Good fastball. Brought that in at the base.

1139
01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:07,000
Stanley is just one and three. Born at Portland, Maine, six-four and two-oh-five.

1140
01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:10,000
As the sign's going out, runners at first and third. The pitch.

1141
01:31:10,000 --> 01:31:20,000
Chop foul and again Downing just got a piece of it. That's where Stanley is rough. If he can keep the pitches down there around the knees with his natural finger, he's going to throw a lot of ground ball.

1142
01:31:20,000 --> 01:31:24,000
And in this ballpark, that's a bonus.

1143
01:31:24,000 --> 01:31:30,000
Infield will gladly give up a round to turn a double play. Seven to four Boston going out of the angle, fifth inning.

1144
01:31:30,000 --> 01:31:39,000
Talk of first, barely a third. The pitch. Play on the ground ball, fifty-two. Brokken has it. Goes to Brawhammer. Back to first base, double play.

1145
01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:44,000
Run score, this seven to five Boston.

1146
01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:50,000
Well, that's the difference in the game now. Each team has had a double play ball with first and third.

1147
01:31:50,000 --> 01:32:00,000
And no out or one out, the Angels up there and the Red Sox went on to score four. Now Boston turns its double play and the Angels get only one run.

1148
01:32:00,000 --> 01:32:07,000
Six-four-three. Nicely turned. Two outs down to sixth inning, a seven to five score.

1149
01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:16,000
And the Angels second away at Boston's lead here at Canlandra. Left-handed hitting right fielder. He's 0-3 facing the Southfall Dilley. First chance against Stanley.

1150
01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:26,000
He takes it low and inside, ball in.

1151
01:32:26,000 --> 01:32:31,000
Wind it by Stanley. Here comes the pitch. Swing and a foul off the plate on fire.

1152
01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:46,000
The test protector is one and one. Alandro hitting two forty-seven at the start. Counts in California and Arizona State University. Alandro, the final league player of the year. Last season, Riley Harold at Youngstreet.

1153
01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:54,000
The pitch. Outside with a back ball. Stanley's throwing well. Two and one to count.

1154
01:32:54,000 --> 01:33:04,000
Angels were three in the first, one in the fifth, now one in the sixth. They put them two out and the two on pitch. Low, three and one. On deck is Bobby Gritch.

1155
01:33:04,000 --> 01:33:15,000
It is an absolute must if you're trying to pitch for Boston or pitching in this ballpark and an opposing color. They use gross strikes. You cannot afford to walk in it that way.

1156
01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:28,000
The three one six. Inside ball four. Get started up with the right arm and said, nope, that's not good enough. It hits him down Zimmer to the mound. Stanley walks Alandro and again the angels have the time running the plate.

1157
01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:41,000
Bobby Gritch, the hitter. And Boston's trying to get someone else up in the bullpen. Could be their eighth right-hander, Bill Campbell. It is a right-hander.

1158
01:33:41,000 --> 01:33:50,000
Zimmer talking to his batter, Stanley and fifth. Stanley the pitcher is tearing down at his feet and falling away at the dirt on the mound.

1159
01:33:50,000 --> 01:33:58,000
Gets the word from the skipper. Now Josh backs to the first base red-tide dugout. Gritch in the game is 0 for 3.

1160
01:33:58,000 --> 01:34:15,000
Down to the third line is short and a soft line is short. Two men throwing, Tom Bergmeyer, a left-hander and Nick Drago, a right-hander. Stanley looks and gets his side.

1161
01:34:15,000 --> 01:34:23,000
Gritch with one point to tie it up with seven to five. Boston were in the sixth inning of a wild one to start this long road trip. The hit. In there a good fastball.

1162
01:34:23,000 --> 01:34:33,000
Right down the middle. Angels two and Boston two to Baltimore. Three in New York. Three Minnesota. Cap it off with a four game series in Texas.

1163
01:34:33,000 --> 01:34:39,000
The set. Set the run at a pit. Playing the ground ball weakly right side but that's going to twist into right field for a base hit.

1164
01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:54,000
Rohan out of channel right. Hits it up and goes to third. And it is not in time. Broke it away from Austin. In the second base goes Gritch and the Angels have a tying run in going position. And I think we're going to have another.

1165
01:34:54,000 --> 01:35:10,000
A little twisting ground ball that got by Scott. Rohan was playing way over near second. Finally caught up with the ball as it was dying in the grass in channel right field. He had no play at first base but alertly noted that Landro running all the way was going to try to make it to third and made a good throw.

1166
01:35:10,000 --> 01:35:29,000
I believe that I had Landro had the ball gotten to third base and Austin but I think the throw hit Landro. And no error is charged. Gritch goes to second on the throw. credit him with a base hit. The second on the throw. Landro to third. They're going to walk Lyman Boston contentedly to load the bases.

1167
01:35:29,000 --> 01:35:48,000
The Angels with a run home. And Landro at third. Gritch the tying run at second in a 7-5 game. And Stanley rather than pitch to the red hot Lyman Boston is going to go against Joe Rudy who is two for two today. A double, a single and a walk.

1168
01:35:48,000 --> 01:36:03,000
Oh my. We said at the very start of the first inning when the Angels scored three. That's just a drop in the bucket. That's just flipping a penny in the pool. If you play a ten way you're going to get out the silver dollars because the stakes are high and it's easy to score runs.

1169
01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:18,000
Rudy out there. A halo over every base with Vostok at first. Gritch standing at second. Landro at third. Boston seventh. The Angels five. The Angels with a plop out some floppy fielding plays by Boston.

1170
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:33,000
As the mother had run, Boston took the best run on two swings to the bat. Three run homers from Dwight Evans and Fred Lynn. How Rudy would like to tie at one. He settles in.

1171
01:36:33,000 --> 01:36:53,000
Infield back in all positions except for Hobson guarding the line behind the bag of third. Stanley into the wind up. Here comes the pitch. Play the brown ball through the middle of the middle field. Here comes Landro. Richard around first. He scores and the Angels have tied at seven-seven on Rudy's third hit of the game.

1172
01:36:53,000 --> 01:37:13,000
They pitch around last shot to get to Rudy. Rudy coming into the game batting only 171 but may be finding that excellent hitting stroke of his tonight with a double lock and now two shot singles. That one went right back through the middle. Stanley reaching for it with under his glove as Rudy has driven in three runs.

1173
01:37:13,000 --> 01:37:32,000
And now the Angels have netted his bat. We're back in a new game at seven-seven. Don't you dare go away. They both kick their extra points in Boston. Here's Ron Jackson swinging a high fly foul hooking down under the roof and left field and with a win that one had home run death.

1174
01:37:32,000 --> 01:37:49,000
Ron Jackson has single run scores lined into a double play and safe on a fielders choice. He's the eighth man to bat in the inning. And only the double play turned by the Boston infield as they've the red dot. More easel run scoring here on this day.

1175
01:37:49,000 --> 01:38:05,000
Runners at first and second. The fifth. Flank and a chopper toward third foul. John McNamara will field it and is coaching by flipping to the third base up by a brief nab and eight. Last shot and second. Rudy at first.

1176
01:38:05,000 --> 01:38:19,000
Seven-seven tie. The Angels about hit the red dot nine to seven. So both starters Tom Griffin and Dilley will not figure in the decision tonight. The game belongs to Stanley and Brett. Jackson trying to give the Angels the lead. They play them deep toward left. The pitch.

1177
01:38:19,000 --> 01:38:43,000
Hit him in the left knee and Jackson comes up the hobbler. Now the bases are loaded as Ron Jackson already playing hurt with a bad bat. Is hit just above the left knee with a bat ball. And an 0-2 pitch. Stanley didn't want to do that. So the Angels again have the bases loaded. Here comes John Zimmer and that's going to be all for Bob Stanley.

1178
01:38:43,000 --> 01:39:00,000
The pitching change is made by the people of the Red Sox but for a second identification from Austin Mapp. This is Angels radio 78. The Angels seven the Red Sox seven. Bob Stanley is out and hit Grego.

1179
01:39:00,000 --> 01:39:16,000
He's going to come in to pitch to the Angels from Irving Rettman with the bases loaded. Jackson hit by that bat ball is okay. Walking off the thing as he maneuvers himself down the right field foul line. Getting very little sympathy from first baseman George Scott. Rudy to second.

1180
01:39:16,000 --> 01:39:30,000
Five times the time breaking run. Stan to third. Is it thing will get Grego brought in in a Boston golf cart adorned with a Boston Red Sox hat. Here's the cover. Grego will step out on a bases loaded ten. First baseman's going out now.

1181
01:39:30,000 --> 01:39:46,000
All right. There's five more family dates upcoming at our stadium this season and all boxing team members on these special evenings and afternoons are at half price for these five days. Now the first one to bear in mind is Monday June 26th. That's a 5-10 p.m. game with Kansas City.

1182
01:39:46,000 --> 01:40:00,000
The Western Division champions defending Royals. They open a four game series with the Angels and the first game is June 26th and that is the first family date upcoming. Now two more family dates upcoming in July.

1183
01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:16,000
July 17th for the Detroit Tigers and you know all the young good hitters on that team like Thompson and Kaplan and of course the veteran like Rusty Starr. July 31st at Sino-Fines the surprise team in the American League the Beach Boys Gang. Then August 15th the Boston Red Sox.

1184
01:40:16,000 --> 01:40:30,000
The team you've been hearing about tonight. September 4th the Texas Rangers. There's some top eight attractions upcoming and remember that on Saturday night first tickets are at half price. That's stuff to talk.

1185
01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:49,000
Seattle just scored four runs in the top of the seventh inning. John Hale has hit a three run homer for Seattle. Little problem with that Western Union. Ken Singleton hit a solo homer in the sixth inning so Baltimore had to lead four and Seattle had four.

1186
01:40:49,000 --> 01:40:54,000
In the seventh at Baltimore, the Orioles have won nine in a row.

1187
01:40:54,000 --> 01:40:56,000
Ten in a row.

1188
01:40:56,000 --> 01:40:58,000
One of those two. Nine or ten in a row.

1189
01:40:58,000 --> 01:41:01,000
The Minnesota to Toronto, Goltz against Moore. Game has not started.

1190
01:41:01,000 --> 01:41:05,000
It is a five to four lead. Milwaukee at Detroit in the bottom of the fifth.

1191
01:41:05,000 --> 01:41:07,000
Baltimore with a ten game winning streak.

1192
01:41:07,000 --> 01:41:10,000
The Yankees have scored again on Greg Neville's temperal run of the year.

1193
01:41:10,000 --> 01:41:14,000
And after five innings, Ron Gidry going for his tenth win without a loss.

1194
01:41:14,000 --> 01:41:16,000
Leads Oakland 2-0 in New York.

1195
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:19,000
This three Kansas City one, Bobby Bonds has hit his seventh home run of the year

1196
01:41:19,000 --> 01:41:23,000
with a man on in the third inning in Kansas City to give the Rangers a 3-1 lead.

1197
01:41:23,000 --> 01:41:26,000
Bonds has just signed a two million dollar contract yesterday.

1198
01:41:26,000 --> 01:41:29,000
Reportedly for five to seven years.

1199
01:41:29,000 --> 01:41:32,000
So he's a happy Ranger and a very wealthy one.

1200
01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:35,000
And completing the American League scoreboard, the White's have to have a one nothing lead

1201
01:41:35,000 --> 01:41:38,000
at home against Cleveland after three.

1202
01:41:38,000 --> 01:41:40,000
Rettman settles in.

1203
01:41:40,000 --> 01:41:44,000
The Yankees are playing short three men because of injury.

1204
01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:47,000
That takes away some of the maneuvering that Jim Fragosi can do.

1205
01:41:47,000 --> 01:41:48,000
So it's right hander against right hander.

1206
01:41:48,000 --> 01:41:50,000
Base is loaded.

1207
01:41:50,000 --> 01:41:51,000
Drago sent and a pitch.

1208
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:53,000
Way outside, ball one.

1209
01:41:53,000 --> 01:41:55,000
Rettman is locked safe on an air.

1210
01:41:55,000 --> 01:41:59,000
And Wilson recalls one deep into the hole to throw him out on a close play.

1211
01:41:59,000 --> 01:42:01,000
That was him at this inning.

1212
01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:04,000
The Yankees have hit around for the second time in this game.

1213
01:42:04,000 --> 01:42:06,000
Throwing three runs on four hits in the air in the first inning.

1214
01:42:06,000 --> 01:42:09,000
They have three more runs here in this inning.

1215
01:42:09,000 --> 01:42:11,000
Three hits in the air and a couple of walks.

1216
01:42:11,000 --> 01:42:12,000
Base is loaded.

1217
01:42:12,000 --> 01:42:14,000
A seven-seven tie.

1218
01:42:14,000 --> 01:42:15,000
Drago to the plate.

1219
01:42:15,000 --> 01:42:16,000
Inside corner.

1220
01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:21,000
Rettman jumps back but it's off the edge.

1221
01:42:21,000 --> 01:42:25,000
Rettman has a grand slam over on this year for the Yankees.

1222
01:42:25,000 --> 01:42:27,000
He's only over.

1223
01:42:27,000 --> 01:42:29,000
Everyone becomes a power man in this ballpark.

1224
01:42:29,000 --> 01:42:32,000
It's basically as you hit from the right side.

1225
01:42:32,000 --> 01:42:33,000
Five stock at third.

1226
01:42:33,000 --> 01:42:34,000
Rudy and Nick Lee to second base.

1227
01:42:34,000 --> 01:42:37,000
Jackson ready to go from first with two outs.

1228
01:42:37,000 --> 01:42:38,000
Drago, better than right handers.

1229
01:42:38,000 --> 01:42:39,000
One-one hit.

1230
01:42:39,000 --> 01:42:40,000
High and inside.

1231
01:42:40,000 --> 01:42:41,000
Two and one.

1232
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:45,000
Rettman kicking his swing as he collapsed to his left knee.

1233
01:42:45,000 --> 01:42:50,000
Drago has done a good job with Boston.

1234
01:42:50,000 --> 01:42:52,000
One point six-six during run average.

1235
01:42:52,000 --> 01:42:53,000
He's saved six games.

1236
01:42:53,000 --> 01:42:55,000
Tops on the clock.

1237
01:42:55,000 --> 01:42:57,000
That's tough to do when you've got a Bill Campbell out there.

1238
01:42:57,000 --> 01:43:00,000
He's won two and lost only one.

1239
01:43:00,000 --> 01:43:02,000
Trying to pick out of a base is loaded jam.

1240
01:43:02,000 --> 01:43:03,000
And here comes the action pitch.

1241
01:43:03,000 --> 01:43:05,000
Two and one to Merv Rettman.

1242
01:43:05,000 --> 01:43:07,000
Drago hands his sign.

1243
01:43:07,000 --> 01:43:08,000
Low target.

1244
01:43:08,000 --> 01:43:09,000
Here's the pitch.

1245
01:43:09,000 --> 01:43:11,000
Rettman takes right two.

1246
01:43:11,000 --> 01:43:13,000
Unquieter and Rettman unhappy with himself.

1247
01:43:13,000 --> 01:43:14,000
Good to do in fifth.

1248
01:43:14,000 --> 01:43:15,000
Me to it.

1249
01:43:15,000 --> 01:43:19,000
Two and two.

1250
01:43:19,000 --> 01:43:20,000
We're in the sixth setting.

1251
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:24,000
A new game at seventh.

1252
01:43:24,000 --> 01:43:27,000
Wind blowing briskly toward left field.

1253
01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:29,000
Yes, back a couple of steps from the warning pad.

1254
01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:31,000
Lin and deeper left center.

1255
01:43:31,000 --> 01:43:33,000
Evans back and right.

1256
01:43:33,000 --> 01:43:35,000
A two-two count.

1257
01:43:35,000 --> 01:43:37,000
Drago slowly at the waist.

1258
01:43:37,000 --> 01:43:38,000
Here's the pitch.

1259
01:43:38,000 --> 01:43:39,000
Inside, ball three.

1260
01:43:39,000 --> 01:43:46,000
And that builds the drama right through the bounding point where Drago has to throw a

1261
01:43:46,000 --> 01:43:48,000
trite or the Angels get a run.

1262
01:43:48,000 --> 01:43:50,000
And Rettman has to protect the plate.

1263
01:43:50,000 --> 01:43:53,000
I don't think he can get a hold of something and put the Angels in front.

1264
01:43:53,000 --> 01:43:54,000
Angels three in the first.

1265
01:43:54,000 --> 01:43:56,000
Red Sox three in the second.

1266
01:43:56,000 --> 01:43:59,000
Red Sox four more in the fourth to make it seven to three.

1267
01:43:59,000 --> 01:44:00,000
Angels one in the fifth.

1268
01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:02,000
And they score three here in the fifth to tie.

1269
01:44:02,000 --> 01:44:04,000
And now three and two to count.

1270
01:44:04,000 --> 01:44:06,000
And the pitcher, well, who's it under?

1271
01:44:06,000 --> 01:44:10,000
The batter of the pitcher, most would say it's Drago who has to throw a trite.

1272
01:44:10,000 --> 01:44:12,000
Rettman waves the wood back and forth.

1273
01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:14,000
Drago's settled slowly in the waist.

1274
01:44:14,000 --> 01:44:15,000
Three-two-fifth.

1275
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:16,000
Bring it a looper to left center field.

1276
01:44:16,000 --> 01:44:18,000
Here comes Lin in a hurry.

1277
01:44:18,000 --> 01:44:22,000
He makes the catch.

1278
01:44:22,000 --> 01:44:28,000
In this game where the wind actually hurt the Angels because the ball was not hit hard at all,

1279
01:44:28,000 --> 01:44:33,000
but the wind carried it out to Fred Lin who galloped into jail to left center field to make the catch.

1280
01:44:33,000 --> 01:44:38,000
The Angels settle for three runs, three hits, one error, and they lead three.

1281
01:44:38,000 --> 01:44:44,000
Level of the sixth, five, seven, seven, five.

1282
01:44:44,000 --> 01:44:49,000
The Cleveland Indians have signed five more players who are recent selections of the summer free agent draft.

1283
01:44:49,000 --> 01:44:54,000
The signing brings eight to total of players in the free agent draft who are now under contract.

1284
01:44:54,000 --> 01:44:58,000
Signed with third base and Pete Peltz, a ninth round pick from Clemson University.

1285
01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:03,000
Picked Bob Husey, a 13th round selection from Xavier Illinois College.

1286
01:45:03,000 --> 01:45:07,000
Picked Jerelle Struzheim, a 15th round pick from Olympic Fields, Illinois.

1287
01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:11,000
Picked Jim McBride, a 19th round choice from Jackson State.

1288
01:45:11,000 --> 01:45:16,000
And second baseman Ken Gilmore, a 27th round selection from Troy State University.

1289
01:45:16,000 --> 01:45:22,000
The Minnesota Twins announce the signing of left-hander pitcher Chris Deason, the club's 22nd choice in last week's draft.

1290
01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:26,000
Deason will report to Melbourne, Florida for two weeks of training,

1291
01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:29,000
and then will pitch for Elizabeth Town of the Appalachian League.

1292
01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:33,000
The Boston Red Sox signed seven more free agents selected in last week's draft.

1293
01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:41,000
Five of those signings have been assigned to Elmira of the Class A New York Pennsylvania League.

1294
01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:47,000
A wild one at Fenway Park in Boston as the Red Sox open a long home stand.

1295
01:45:47,000 --> 01:45:53,000
And the Angels have a long two week road trip.

1296
01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:57,000
Trying to figure out the other runs the way we did in that six-setting game,

1297
01:45:57,000 --> 01:46:01,000
before two more hunter's runs and now six of their seven runs on the Earth.

1298
01:46:01,000 --> 01:46:05,000
Ken Rudd at his ball game, and he faces Jack Rohammer,

1299
01:46:05,000 --> 01:46:08,000
Dwight Evans and Wood Thompson, the lower third of the Boston batting order.

1300
01:46:08,000 --> 01:46:12,000
The Angels have left eight and on base, Boston only two.

1301
01:46:12,000 --> 01:46:16,000
That'll tell you part of the story as the Red Sox with runners on, it's off with a big blow.

1302
01:46:16,000 --> 01:46:19,000
Dwight Evans a free run over, Fred Renssen saying,

1303
01:46:19,000 --> 01:46:23,000
the Red Sox are pumped to this, waiting in the midst of Rohammer.

1304
01:46:23,000 --> 01:46:26,000
Angels throwing three in the first, leaving the base at full,

1305
01:46:26,000 --> 01:46:28,000
and three more in the sixth to drive,

1306
01:46:28,000 --> 01:46:33,000
but the base is worth runs when Brettman puts the fly ball to center.

1307
01:46:33,000 --> 01:46:36,000
Inside is Brett, one and one.

1308
01:46:36,000 --> 01:46:42,000
The Angels take up the eight, Atlanta to St. Louis nothing after six and a half in Georgia.

1309
01:46:42,000 --> 01:46:44,000
Line up by Brett, one and one to this.

1310
01:46:44,000 --> 01:46:46,000
Third ball hit the left center field after a tough play by Block,

1311
01:46:46,000 --> 01:46:50,000
going back, back, back, back, it's over, hit, back to by Rudy.

1312
01:46:50,000 --> 01:46:53,000
Rohammer has found new life in Boston.

1313
01:46:53,000 --> 01:46:56,000
He's had a 240, 250 hit almost with his wife,

1314
01:46:56,000 --> 01:47:01,000
but a 300 hitter with a Red Sox has been doubled to left center field.

1315
01:47:01,000 --> 01:47:05,000
And again, that's when the Red Sox already has a ball,

1316
01:47:05,000 --> 01:47:09,000
but it's carried right over his head as Rohammer is three for three,

1317
01:47:09,000 --> 01:47:14,000
two singles and now a double, as the Red Sox come right back against Ken Brett.

1318
01:47:14,000 --> 01:47:19,000
That's their eight hit and brings up Dwight Evans, a three run over, and he's stuck out.

1319
01:47:19,000 --> 01:47:23,000
Other National League scores, White's got two, Cincinnati nothing after five.

1320
01:47:23,000 --> 01:47:26,000
In the sixth, Pittsburgh leads at Houston, one nothing in the third.

1321
01:47:26,000 --> 01:47:29,000
Billy's two, down to nothing, bottom of the fifth in L.A.

1322
01:47:29,000 --> 01:47:34,000
Olberd's five, Olibinsky is 13th, and Smith is in his ninth for the two gold scores.

1323
01:47:34,000 --> 01:47:40,000
The fact that other guys beat Montréal one nothing, New York and San Diego no report.

1324
01:47:40,000 --> 01:47:55,000
Dwight Evans way outside and a fine shot by Brian Downing.

1325
01:47:55,000 --> 01:47:59,000
Rohammer on second base, Ken Brett left-hander against the right-hander,

1326
01:47:59,000 --> 01:48:02,000
Dwight Evans a 7-7 tie in the sixth inning, here's the pitch.

1327
01:48:02,000 --> 01:48:05,000
On the outside corner, one and one.

1328
01:48:05,000 --> 01:48:09,000
Brett's last side was Wednesday night, part of the double header at Oakland,

1329
01:48:09,000 --> 01:48:16,000
and he hit very well, just a couple of hits and seven cutout innings.

1330
01:48:16,000 --> 01:48:21,000
He is two and three on the year, ERA up there at five points to tape.

1331
01:48:21,000 --> 01:48:24,000
That's Rohammer's second, here's the pitch, curve ball fouled at the three,

1332
01:48:24,000 --> 01:48:26,000
and Evans trying to go to right field with it.

1333
01:48:26,000 --> 01:48:32,000
Hit one and two to the Boston right fielder.

1334
01:48:32,000 --> 01:48:39,000
Brett's on to the Yankees in one of the amazing courts of the 1978 American League schedule,

1335
01:48:39,000 --> 01:48:41,000
have not played each other yet.

1336
01:48:41,000 --> 01:48:44,000
First game will be a week from tonight, and they'll see each other a lot,

1337
01:48:44,000 --> 01:48:47,000
so it'll go steady for a couple of weeks.

1338
01:48:47,000 --> 01:48:51,000
Brett gets a sign from Downing, is ahead on the count, the one-two pitch is one on a wide line,

1339
01:48:51,000 --> 01:48:53,000
right field, hits to the left, and it's a base hit.

1340
01:48:53,000 --> 01:48:55,000
Andrew's going to the line, trying to cut it off, he's got it,

1341
01:48:55,000 --> 01:48:57,000
Evans going for two, here comes the throw,

1342
01:48:57,000 --> 01:49:10,000
and it's time, back-to-back double for Boston, they lead eight to seven.

1343
01:49:10,000 --> 01:49:13,000
A frustrating game for the Angels, Jim and Jeff Ragusey,

1344
01:49:13,000 --> 01:49:17,000
as Bob keeps battling back, and as soon as they get even or close,

1345
01:49:17,000 --> 01:49:20,000
Boston does it all right, we're going to turn it on to Boston again,

1346
01:49:20,000 --> 01:49:22,000
and four on a held out, four roots.

1347
01:49:22,000 --> 01:49:28,000
Eight to seven to score, as Brett gives up his first hit and first run of the game.

1348
01:49:28,000 --> 01:49:32,000
Got the sign out in order in the fifth inning, but doubles by Broham or Evans.

1349
01:49:32,000 --> 01:49:36,000
Here's Boston, late eight-seven, here's Wood Thompson.

1350
01:49:36,000 --> 01:49:40,000
Evans, four on the eyes, and he leaves away from second base, the pitch,

1351
01:49:40,000 --> 01:49:43,000
blowing inside ball one.

1352
01:49:43,000 --> 01:49:49,000
Angels getting a right-hander ready, Paul Hartsall in the bullpen.

1353
01:49:49,000 --> 01:49:53,000
We're in the sixth inning, Boston eight, the Angels seven, both sides nine hits.

1354
01:49:53,000 --> 01:49:56,000
The curve ball is way outside ball two.

1355
01:49:56,000 --> 01:50:01,000
One of the things that that big close left field wall do to left-handers

1356
01:50:01,000 --> 01:50:04,000
is make you pitch delicately, and then sometimes you get behind,

1357
01:50:04,000 --> 01:50:09,000
you have to draw a strike, and they're sitting on your pitches and really take good cuts.

1358
01:50:09,000 --> 01:50:11,000
Not been ready to swing two at all.

1359
01:50:11,000 --> 01:50:19,000
The Angels are in the second, no one out, Boston six, pitch, taken for a strike, short one.

1360
01:50:19,000 --> 01:50:24,000
Boston with the best record in baseball, 39 wins and only 19 losses.

1361
01:50:24,000 --> 01:50:26,000
They lead the game to five-six.

1362
01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:31,000
The Angels 30 wins, 27 losses, but they're only one and a half out of first place in the West.

1363
01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:34,000
The pitch, curve ball, hop shot, playable.

1364
01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:36,000
First baseman, Fairleigh, in foul territory.

1365
01:50:36,000 --> 01:50:41,000
He makes the catch, leaning back to his right as the wind brought it towards their territory.

1366
01:50:41,000 --> 01:50:48,000
So Hartsall fouls out, unable to move the runner to third, and with one out, Rick Berlton steps up.

1367
01:50:48,000 --> 01:50:52,000
Right-handed hitting shortstop as a single, fly to center, and then fly to deep center.

1368
01:50:52,000 --> 01:51:01,000
A good one-handed catch made by Potsdock right against the wall.

1369
01:51:01,000 --> 01:51:08,000
Can Brett look to get the sign from his catcher downing as Evans leads from second base?

1370
01:51:08,000 --> 01:51:12,000
Brett says yes to the sign, looks to second, and the pitch.

1371
01:51:12,000 --> 01:51:14,000
That ball over the blow, one and all.

1372
01:51:14,000 --> 01:51:19,000
On deck is Fred Lim.

1373
01:51:19,000 --> 01:51:24,000
The getters from the game, Evans with a free run homer and an RBI double driving in fourth.

1374
01:51:24,000 --> 01:51:27,000
Joe Rudy three for three to knock in three.

1375
01:51:27,000 --> 01:51:33,000
The pitch, outside ball two, but Lin with a free run glass.

1376
01:51:33,000 --> 01:51:42,000
To left field, the left-handed hitter as he homers to left field at Anaheim Stadium to win Boston the ball again in the ninth inning at Anaheim a week ago.

1377
01:51:42,000 --> 01:51:46,000
So Berlton waits for the two-all pitch.

1378
01:51:46,000 --> 01:51:58,000
Brett steps, here it comes.

1379
01:51:58,000 --> 01:52:01,000
Oh, they had a good shot at Evans.

1380
01:52:01,000 --> 01:52:04,000
The throw was 30 feet at the third-date line.

1381
01:52:04,000 --> 01:52:09,000
If Landow throws and he has a great arm anywhere near the plate, Evans is out.

1382
01:52:09,000 --> 01:52:17,000
And third-date coach Eddie Yost took real liberties on Landow on that play and lost it late at nine to seven.

1383
01:52:17,000 --> 01:52:23,000
When Yost was waving Evans home and Evans with a bat he does not run well, he appeared to be doing the angels a favor,

1384
01:52:23,000 --> 01:52:29,000
but Landow's throw sailed way up the third-date line and there was no chance to get him.

1385
01:52:29,000 --> 01:52:37,000
Now Brett gives up a couple of runs and on the throw, Berlton is in scoring position nine to seven.

1386
01:52:37,000 --> 01:52:40,000
Where were we then? Here's Fred Lind, one out.

1387
01:52:40,000 --> 01:52:42,000
Three-round homer and his three-click.

1388
01:52:42,000 --> 01:52:44,000
He's also wide-out, rounded out.

1389
01:52:44,000 --> 01:52:47,000
The pitch, throwing outside.

1390
01:52:47,000 --> 01:52:54,000
Now Brett falling behind Berlton, two and oh, and Berlton just went right where that bat ball landed to right field.

1391
01:52:54,000 --> 01:53:02,000
Iso continuing to throw in the ankle pin, all this flat on the box and half of that right field area.

1392
01:53:02,000 --> 01:53:10,000
That looks back a second to pit, curveball mounted, short, Schalk is up with it, his very throw just in time, two away.

1393
01:53:10,000 --> 01:53:18,000
Lin out short to first, brings up designated hitter Jim Wright and also brings Jim Fragosi

1394
01:53:18,000 --> 01:53:25,000
and stuff down into the pockets of his warm-up jacket, onto the field, starts at the foul line on his way to the mound.

1395
01:53:25,000 --> 01:53:33,000
And it looks as if he's going to go to both ends and counter Wright with Hartzell or will he walk Wright

1396
01:53:33,000 --> 01:53:38,000
and take the chance to left-hander Brett again to Sturmski.

1397
01:53:38,000 --> 01:53:41,000
He's asking Brett for that step question now.

1398
01:53:41,000 --> 01:53:44,000
Berlton at second base, two out.

1399
01:53:44,000 --> 01:53:51,000
Boston with two back in the fifth inning, to lead nine-seven.

1400
01:53:51,000 --> 01:53:57,000
Brett stays and we'll see if Wright hits.

1401
01:53:57,000 --> 01:54:08,000
That's a tough choice. You want Jim Wright and then all you have to do is get down to Sturmski and he hits left-hander.

1402
01:54:08,000 --> 01:54:12,000
Wright a home run away from twenty for the year.

1403
01:54:12,000 --> 01:54:15,000
And he'll not swing, they're going to walk in intentionally.

1404
01:54:15,000 --> 01:54:21,000
So, turning it out with Brett and Fragosi, meeting at the line and they have decided to walk Wright.

1405
01:54:21,000 --> 01:54:26,000
Wright is over three, Hartzell crowded out and struck out.

1406
01:54:26,000 --> 01:54:29,000
Brett walking in first man.

1407
01:54:29,000 --> 01:54:40,000
Man's going now, but you'll soon hear a cheer that said it's Wright's walk because they know they've got King Kyle Yosemite waiting for that next ball free outside.

1408
01:54:40,000 --> 01:54:46,000
In the inning, doubled by Berlhamer and Evans. Arkin found out that Berlton singled in a run.

1409
01:54:46,000 --> 01:54:56,000
One-second of a serve on the plate and Lynn has turned it out. Wright's walk, this time to Sturmski.

1410
01:54:56,000 --> 01:55:01,000
The intentional walk in the top half of the inning as the Red Sox walk Bob Sox to fill the bases.

1411
01:55:01,000 --> 01:55:09,000
Back right is Broody, singled in two runs.

1412
01:55:09,000 --> 01:55:17,000
He has a 290 average, three home runs, 28 runs better than he's rounded, twice the grit in a long.

1413
01:55:17,000 --> 01:55:21,000
Left hander against left hander with Carlson Piss doing it.

1414
01:55:21,000 --> 01:55:25,000
Two outs, two runs, nine to seven Boston.

1415
01:55:25,000 --> 01:55:33,000
Brett steps, checks the runners, good hit. Outside ball in, that's four.

1416
01:55:33,000 --> 01:55:45,000
Yes, as he continues his brilliant career, building up on the all-time list in so many categories.

1417
01:55:45,000 --> 01:55:57,000
He steps out of the batting spot, he's now 37th all-time and runs scores, 30th in total hits, 17th in doubles tied with Ted Williams, 17th all-time.

1418
01:55:57,000 --> 01:56:03,000
24th in all runs, takes it way outside ball two, a third ball.

1419
01:56:03,000 --> 01:56:13,000
That's the 369 homer, gets empty, gets tied for number 24 with Ralph Snyder and he's only one behind the man in the 23rd spot, the late Joe Hunter.

1420
01:56:13,000 --> 01:56:19,000
He's 22nd in RBI, just three behind Billy Williams.

1421
01:56:19,000 --> 01:56:27,000
And in extra bay pitch, only 18 minutes in Major League history has collected more extra bay flows than he has.

1422
01:56:27,000 --> 01:56:31,000
And he's just one behind the man in the 18th position, Billy Williams.

1423
01:56:31,000 --> 01:56:39,000
So you're talking about Hall of Fame names when you compare the answers position, all-time and all those offensive columns.

1424
01:56:39,000 --> 01:56:43,000
And he's got two main to boards and he's waiting for a two-hole pitch.

1425
01:56:43,000 --> 01:56:46,000
And you know he's swinging if he likes it.

1426
01:56:46,000 --> 01:56:50,000
He's ready, so is Red. The Bits, we're at a high pop while out of play.

1427
01:56:50,000 --> 01:56:54,000
He got a fast ball and took quite a rip.

1428
01:56:54,000 --> 01:56:59,000
Two and one. Red starts scoring in bunches.

1429
01:56:59,000 --> 01:57:03,000
The three in the second are four in the fourth and they have two already in the sixth.

1430
01:57:03,000 --> 01:57:12,000
The Eagles have thrown up there a couple of threes and they've stuck in the first in the sixth inning along with a Singleton in the fifth.

1431
01:57:12,000 --> 01:57:16,000
Rolfe in the second, right to first. The action fits two and one, here it comes.

1432
01:57:16,000 --> 01:57:21,000
Swing to the left, a change and he has out in front.

1433
01:57:21,000 --> 01:57:25,000
All right, game two of this short two-game series.

1434
01:57:25,000 --> 01:57:35,000
Chris Knapp, the angle right-hander, sits in fourth against right-hander Jim Wright of Watson, making a rare start.

1435
01:57:35,000 --> 01:57:37,000
Two and two, two on, two off the pitch.

1436
01:57:37,000 --> 01:57:42,000
Four on and a bounce in the first. Fairly gets a take off and takes it to the bag and the inning is over.

1437
01:57:42,000 --> 01:57:47,000
The Reds, however, take the lead as they score two runs on three hits and leave a pair.

1438
01:57:47,000 --> 01:57:55,000
After six innings in Boston, Red starts nine, angle seven.

1439
01:57:55,000 --> 01:58:02,000
After six offensive innings here at Sidenway Park, Boston, the total three this way.

1440
01:58:02,000 --> 01:58:10,000
Boston nine runs, ten hits, four errors, four left. Angle seven runs, nine hits, one error, eight men stranded.

1441
01:58:10,000 --> 01:58:15,000
Dick Grego, it's his game as he comes out of the ten and it's Ken Reds ball game for the Angels.

1442
01:58:15,000 --> 01:58:27,000
Grego in, the seventh inning, Rolfe, fairly chalked and downing to Ken Bergow with Ken, a producer in New York, Nelson from Sidenway Park, Boston.

1443
01:58:27,000 --> 01:58:33,000
Beautiful summer's evening, fell out fast and they've been thoroughly entertained.

1444
01:58:33,000 --> 01:58:41,000
If you like Dick's battle, well this is the antithesis, who's going to finally get off the canvas glass and have his hand raised to victory?

1445
01:58:41,000 --> 01:58:43,000
Let's go to the seventh, here's now.

1446
01:58:43,000 --> 01:58:50,000
Alright Dick, I'm sure if you're an Angels fan, you're wondering one thing right now, what kind of Dick Grego is this on the mound?

1447
01:58:50,000 --> 01:58:53,000
Is this the new Dick Grego or the old Dick Grego?

1448
01:58:53,000 --> 01:58:58,000
Well, when we're trying to remember the ice and score, when the Angels had difficulty out of the bullpen.

1449
01:58:58,000 --> 01:59:06,000
And the new one, a badly, is doing well for the Boston Reds on the two and one record, a 1.66 ERA and six saves to his credit.

1450
01:59:06,000 --> 01:59:12,000
He faces the Angels in the seventh, the first pick to fastball away to Ron Felle, ball one.

1451
01:59:12,000 --> 01:59:17,000
Felling in the game has two hits and three trips, a single and a double.

1452
01:59:17,000 --> 01:59:25,000
The Angels matching the Boston Reds on for Boston, going in front in their half of the sixth and they lead nine to seven.

1453
01:59:25,000 --> 01:59:29,000
Now Felle requests time and is granted it by home plate umpire, Russ Gett.

1454
01:59:29,000 --> 01:59:36,000
If I can remind you, the crew tonight has brevigan over his first base, Dale Ford is at second and Joe Brinkman at third.

1455
01:59:36,000 --> 01:59:42,000
The pitch, swinging and a miss, this time the guy wants a change and the gap is one and one to Felle.

1456
01:59:42,000 --> 01:59:51,000
Ron Felle hitting against the kind of pitcher you like to see a right-hander has difficulty against left-handed pitching.

1457
01:59:51,000 --> 01:59:58,000
Statistically at least, that's primarily due to the fact you don't see it that often because they'll take him out.

1458
01:59:58,000 --> 02:00:01,000
Swing and a foul back, count one and two.

1459
02:00:03,000 --> 02:00:10,000
The Angels jumping out in front with three runs in the first, they strand the three men also in the first.

1460
02:00:10,000 --> 02:00:16,000
The Reds are dancing with three in the second and then had four in the fourth.

1461
02:00:16,000 --> 02:00:21,000
The Angels with one in the fifth and then tied it with three in their half of the sixth.

1462
02:00:21,000 --> 02:00:25,000
The Reds are to jump back out in front again with two more in the last of the sixth.

1463
02:00:25,000 --> 02:00:29,000
Nine to seven Boston, nobody else fairly leading off into seventh.

1464
02:00:29,000 --> 02:00:33,000
Playing on a high fly ball, playable, medium depth right field.

1465
02:00:33,000 --> 02:00:37,000
Under it is Devin, then he makes the catch under the night sky.

1466
02:00:37,000 --> 02:00:44,000
The Bailey flies out to the right fielder, Evans, and we remind you that Angels...

1467
02:00:44,000 --> 02:00:59,000
...

1468
02:01:01,000 --> 02:01:04,000
One out of his jumps, choking up, right hand hitter.

1469
02:01:04,000 --> 02:01:10,000
Swing and a line drive and it is Ricky Yosinski, glides to the line to make the catch.

1470
02:01:10,000 --> 02:01:18,000
Yosinski playing left field like Van Kuyver plays the piano.

1471
02:01:18,000 --> 02:01:22,000
He knows every inch of that territory and he just moves over to the line.

1472
02:01:22,000 --> 02:01:29,000
Good position on Schonk right off the bat and as a result the line drive out by Dave Schonk and the two going into seventh.

1473
02:01:29,000 --> 02:01:32,000
The two members tied, here is the catch.

1474
02:01:32,000 --> 02:01:35,000
The number nine hitter from California, Brian Downing.

1475
02:01:35,000 --> 02:01:41,000
The great goal number nine, full speed of an over, he rocks, here comes the first pitch, inside and high, ball one.

1476
02:01:41,000 --> 02:01:46,000
Downing holds a few players tonight without a hit.

1477
02:01:46,000 --> 02:01:51,000
He is flyed out, bounced out, and hit into a six, four, three double play.

1478
02:01:51,000 --> 02:01:57,000
One on the referee is up high, one, now it's two and oh to Brian Downing.

1479
02:01:57,000 --> 02:02:04,000
The Red Sox is using Draco, he is the third pitcher that they've utilized tonight.

1480
02:02:04,000 --> 02:02:09,000
Lee started with five, Stanley two-thirds and now Draco off.

1481
02:02:09,000 --> 02:02:15,000
He winds the two-all pitch, inside Downing checking his swing.

1482
02:02:17,000 --> 02:02:19,000
Three and oh to Downing.

1483
02:02:19,000 --> 02:02:29,000
The two off, the Red Sox can feel back, off and back and third, relative to short, row hammered second, and Scott over at first.

1484
02:02:29,000 --> 02:02:33,000
This behind the play, flashing the sign, let's see if Downing is going to play it out.

1485
02:02:33,000 --> 02:02:36,000
The best thing he's taking is strikes.

1486
02:02:36,000 --> 02:02:44,000
The angels, need a base runner to get on board and see what the following hitters can do.

1487
02:02:44,000 --> 02:02:48,000
Downing, taking, and it's three and one.

1488
02:02:48,000 --> 02:02:52,000
Draco, rock to the motion, three one pitch, a five or four.

1489
02:02:52,000 --> 02:02:55,000
Brian Downing with a two-arm walk.

1490
02:02:55,000 --> 02:02:58,000
Draco, that's the first walk that he has issued.

1491
02:02:58,000 --> 02:03:02,000
And here's the top of the order, Kenny Landru.

1492
02:03:02,000 --> 02:03:07,000
Landru couldn't give a workout in right field, had difficulty with the throw.

1493
02:03:07,000 --> 02:03:15,000
The last half inning, with a gun demand out to play, he has a very strong arm, strongest arm of the team, but it was too accurate.

1494
02:03:15,000 --> 02:03:19,000
The throw is 20 feet up the line, and a run score.

1495
02:03:19,000 --> 02:03:26,000
Landru, offensively, has not created a double, but bonds.

1496
02:03:26,000 --> 02:03:35,000
Draco, a slow set, down to the weight and the pitch, fastball in the outside corner, it calls strike one.

1497
02:03:35,000 --> 02:03:40,000
Dick Draco on in relief for Stanley, who in turn believes middle league.

1498
02:03:40,000 --> 02:03:45,000
Nine, seven, Boston, top of the seven, Fenway, March.

1499
02:03:45,000 --> 02:03:49,000
The Red Sox, best record in baseball, 20 games above 500.

1500
02:03:49,000 --> 02:03:55,000
The pitch, to the line drive, hit down that line, in that field, it was dropped in front of Yosemkes, holding and second base is Downing.

1501
02:03:55,000 --> 02:04:00,000
A strong throw behind the runner, but Downing retreats to second ahead of the throw.

1502
02:04:00,000 --> 02:04:04,000
So the angels were two out for the pair of middle arms.

1503
02:04:04,000 --> 02:04:11,000
Downing walks, and then Kenny Landru picks up his first hit of the night, a line drive, single, to that field.

1504
02:04:11,000 --> 02:04:13,000
And here's Bob Rich.

1505
02:04:13,000 --> 02:04:20,000
Rich is 33 times up, retired, he grounded out, and he popped out the short twice.

1506
02:04:20,000 --> 02:04:26,000
His last time up, the singles.

1507
02:04:26,000 --> 02:04:34,000
Bobby with a chance to imprint upon the angels, Chancers, as they trail by a pair of two out, two head on, seventh inning, the pitch.

1508
02:04:34,000 --> 02:04:42,000
Playing on a high fly ball, playable, shallow right field, coming on his Evans, going on and dropping the ball into second base is Brohamer.

1509
02:04:42,000 --> 02:04:48,000
One run scored, the Downing comes in, Landru holds over third base, Rich goes to second base.

1510
02:04:48,000 --> 02:04:58,000
And the air will be tied to Brohamer, who went out, as Brohamer and Scott, and the right-giver Evans, are first on the ball.

1511
02:04:58,000 --> 02:05:02,000
Brohamer tried to pick it up over his shoulder, and he dropped the ball.

1512
02:05:02,000 --> 02:05:11,000
So the angels stay alive, a run score, they are within one run of the Boston Red Sox, on the air by Jax Brohamer.

1513
02:05:11,000 --> 02:05:16,000
Actually, it could have been Dwight Evans' ball, now he was there, could have caught it, but Brohamer calling all the way.

1514
02:05:16,000 --> 02:05:22,000
And with the win, hitting the ball back toward right-fetter, it just kind of carried enough, it went off his fingertips.

1515
02:05:22,000 --> 02:05:31,000
And Landru may have pushed it an angle, he should have scored with two outs, that ball hit high enough, and with Landru's feet from first base, he should have been able to score on it.

1516
02:05:31,000 --> 02:05:39,000
But stopped at third, and now, Rick Smith, the angels' trainer, Simpson trainer, and Jim Fregalski, for the post-game, back him out there to see if he's alright.

1517
02:05:39,000 --> 02:05:46,000
But the game did the equal again, that's five Boston errors, and yet Boston still leads, 9-8.

1518
02:05:46,000 --> 02:05:56,000
And this is the charm of Bentley Park, of course you're always in the game, but it's always generally a wild game, and an intentional pass up coming along with Boxock, with first baseman, second time in a row.

1519
02:05:56,000 --> 02:06:10,000
And now, that Don Jimmender has ordered up an intentional pass to Boxock, he bypassed him in the sixth to pitch to Joe Rudy, and Rudy came up with two RBIs and a single.

1520
02:06:10,000 --> 02:06:17,000
So Dick Grego, dealing out back to left-hand, hitting Boxock, the right-hander on the mound to pitch to the right-hander, Joe Rudy.

1521
02:06:17,000 --> 02:06:29,000
Grego again set, and deals outside, and at ball four, as Boxock underhands the back to the fungo circle dealer, what ball for station identification? This is Angels Radio, 78.

1522
02:06:29,000 --> 02:06:33,000
This is the American Forces Radio and Television Service.

1523
02:06:33,000 --> 02:06:44,000
SCN, to their tone.

1524
02:06:44,000 --> 02:06:52,000
They have a inning of play. Boston, Massachusetts, Fenway, marks the Angels' bump, with a bump for trailing by a run, 9-8.

1525
02:06:52,000 --> 02:06:59,000
They have Kenny Landrow at third, Bobby Gritch at second, Ryman, Boxock at first, and Joe Rudy at the plate.

1526
02:06:59,000 --> 02:07:07,000
Rudy in the game is three for three. He has doubled, he has two singles, and he has won.

1527
02:07:07,000 --> 02:07:15,000
Rudy with a closed stand, right-hand hitter, leading at the plate. Grego, leaning on the mound, looking in for the sign from Carlton Fitz, still looking.

1528
02:07:15,000 --> 02:07:22,000
Now Rudy says, that's too much time for me. And he steps up, requesting time from guests.

1529
02:07:22,000 --> 02:07:32,000
Now Grego and Rudy now in a battle of nerves, as the Angels try to move back to at least high, or perhaps take the lead.

1530
02:07:32,000 --> 02:07:42,000
They are down by a run, 9-8, in the seventh. And again, Rudy says, to heck with it. And Getsch just waves his hands and says, well, come on, you might as well throw the ball sooner or later.

1531
02:07:42,000 --> 02:07:49,000
Now going out is Carlton Fitz, the drop to Dick Grego, with the paternal hand placed on his shoulder.

1532
02:07:49,000 --> 02:07:56,000
The mass split up on top of his head. And now the Red Sox shortstop, Burlinson, also in.

1533
02:07:56,000 --> 02:08:06,000
There is activity now in the bullpen again for the Boston Red Sox.

1534
02:08:06,000 --> 02:08:15,000
Bill Campbell, the expensive release pitcher, creates an uptame by Boston. He is warming up.

1535
02:08:15,000 --> 02:08:20,000
Mesa voted for the Angels. Rudy's still waiting on the first pitch.

1536
02:08:20,000 --> 02:08:31,000
Grego on the mound, thus far has been not too anxious to deliver it. The glove slowly to the belt. The pitch. A high strike.

1537
02:08:31,000 --> 02:08:35,000
Looks like it might have been on the side though, a fast ball.

1538
02:08:35,000 --> 02:08:41,000
4-1 to Rudy. Landrell at third. Bobby Gritch at second.

1539
02:08:41,000 --> 02:08:51,000
Lineman, Sox, at first. On the mound, Dick Grego. The third Red Sox pitcher used tonight. 9-8 Boston, in the seventh.

1540
02:08:51,000 --> 02:08:59,000
Rudy getting set up to play. Close stand, waving the wood back and forth. Grego set.

1541
02:08:59,000 --> 02:09:04,000
The kick and the pitch. Up high, and it's 1-1.

1542
02:09:04,000 --> 02:09:10,000
Jim Bragosi yelling from the ankle, Grego, that's the same place as the one you just saw the strike. He's really sparking at Red's get.

1543
02:09:10,000 --> 02:09:13,000
First one, good look high.

1544
02:09:13,000 --> 02:09:19,000
Now Dick Grego has six saves thus far. A sparkling ERA.

1545
02:09:19,000 --> 02:09:28,000
But he is well aware of what can happen at Fenway Park. He told us last year when he was an Angel and came to this park, the world give it and the world take it away.

1546
02:09:28,000 --> 02:09:32,000
Grego set. The 1-1 pitch. Sweet give of this.

1547
02:09:32,000 --> 02:09:44,000
That one outside slider. Grego now ahead, 1-2. Rudy steps out of the bat his box. Hounds the dirt from his spike.

1548
02:09:44,000 --> 02:09:52,000
He glances down the third base to Coach McNamara. There's Kenny Landrell off the back and foul to a throw.

1549
02:09:52,000 --> 02:10:02,000
Bridge off about five, six, seven steps over his second. Simon Botstock clapping his hands. And off to the edge of that quarter circle. The cut out.

1550
02:10:02,000 --> 02:10:07,000
In the diamond over first base. Rudy at the plate.

1551
02:10:07,000 --> 02:10:19,000
He has jumped up a bit on the bat with two strikes. Grego set. The 1-2 pitch. Inside. 2-2 to Rudy.

1552
02:10:19,000 --> 02:10:30,000
Fenway Park. The scene of this game between the Angels and the Red Sox. A packed house on a gorgeous night. The wind blowing out. The temperature game time 70 degrees.

1553
02:10:30,000 --> 02:10:35,000
A strong wind blowing out towards that green monster in left field.

1554
02:10:35,000 --> 02:10:45,000
And what a digit. Weathering the scoreboard tonight. 9-8 Boston. 10 hits for each team. Five errors by the Red Sox. One error by the Angels.

1555
02:10:45,000 --> 02:11:00,000
Bases loaded. A 2-2 cap to Gil Rudy. Two outs. In the seventh. Grego set. The slowest set. Super belt. And the plate. Swing and a tap or foul. Wide of the first base line.

1556
02:11:00,000 --> 02:11:11,000
And the others now always drink to their respective bases. Landrell back to third and Bits back to second and Botstock back to first.

1557
02:11:11,000 --> 02:11:27,000
The tension continues in Fenway Park where the Angels are trying to get off on the right foot on a 14-game road trip. The Boston Red Sox are trying to begin their longest halt stand of the year in the correct fashion.

1558
02:11:27,000 --> 02:11:41,000
Boston the team that's been hot 20 games above the 500 bucks. 39-19 the best record in Major League Baseball. The Angels three games above 500 and a game and a half out of first place in the West.

1559
02:11:41,000 --> 02:12:01,000
Grego set. The bases loaded. 2-2 pick inside as Rudy has to reel back a bit. Back pedal out of the way. The cap now full. No fouls to Gil Pedrago or Gil Rudy. And the crowd revving up in Boston.

1560
02:12:01,000 --> 02:12:21,000
Gil Rudy slowly making his way back toward the batter's box. The tuck of the helmet. Zipping the bat. Climbing that back foot. Grego. His pivot foot on the rubber. Time call until Rudy gets established. He's ready to go.

1561
02:12:21,000 --> 02:12:37,000
Grego looking for the sign from Carlton Smith. Bases loaded. Two outs. Angels down. 9-8. The pitch. Playing in a high fly ball. Playable right field. Evan Buster is looking off that.

1562
02:12:37,000 --> 02:12:58,000
Grego touched up for a line. End of seven. But he retires the side with the bases loaded. And gets out of a very big jam in the seventh inning. And at the end of six and a half in Boston is correct on nine and the Angels eight.

1563
02:12:58,000 --> 02:13:14,000
The attendance announced tonight at Fenway Park. The capacity is 33,513 and they're not far from that. 31,612 on hand to watch the Angels and the Boston Red Sox in the 9-8 game.

1564
02:13:14,000 --> 02:13:32,000
The Red Sox with that one run in. Now just like the North, those 2,000 empty seats are about 10-5 in it. That's true. Great baseball fans in Boston. They're attracted by a team that's just headed to a ballpark that produces high scoring, exciting games and they're getting one tonight.

1565
02:13:32,000 --> 02:13:47,000
They've always had competitive teams. They build a rough card and take advantage of this very intimate park here at Fenway. They get their stars. They keep them for a long, long time. Carlton Smith is a testimony to that.

1566
02:13:47,000 --> 02:14:02,000
His teammate Carlton Smith will lead off in the seventh. He'll be followed by Jordan Scott who went away to Milwaukee then returned to Boston. And then Jack Groenemann who's been both hero and joke tonight. A new pitcher for the Angels in the seventh. It's Paul Harkill relieving Ken Brett.

1567
02:14:02,000 --> 02:14:24,000
The first pitch is a little high at his ballpark. Carlton Smith in the game today is 0-3. Harkill winds in the fifth. Swing and a miss on a breaking ball. Harkill's record, 1-4, is DRA 3.59. He has five saves to his credit.

1568
02:14:24,000 --> 02:14:41,000
And of course yesterday in Anaheim, it's the final two innings in that victory over the New York Yankees. This way, Harkill delivers breaking ball low and outside. Scooped up by downing out of the dirt, 2-1.

1569
02:14:41,000 --> 02:15:00,000
The Angels three in the first, one in the fifth, three in the sixth, and one in the seventh. The Boston Red Sox three in the second, four in the fourth, two in the sixth, the fifth. Swing and a high chopper into the shortstop Dave Sharp. He goes across the diamond in time. And there's one going for Boston in the seventh.

1570
02:15:00,000 --> 02:15:18,000
Carlton Smith, his guy, put in the fourth, six, three. And here's the boomer, Scott. George Scott. Scott is not here to home run today, but he's just a dent. He is 2-3 for the Paris Singles to Angier.

1571
02:15:18,000 --> 02:15:41,000
Scott holds that bat high and takes a strike on the outside corner of breaking ball, a home run. Scott off to a slow start, only three home runs through the first two and a half run. Swing and a fly ball, hits the level line in right field. Over to make a running catch is Kenny Landruh. He easily puts it away, two going.

1572
02:15:41,000 --> 02:16:04,000
The Angels, although they have four nine runs, check that eight runs tonight, they have wrecked a lot of men on the basin. They were put down in the first half of their score three runs and wrecked with a basin loaded. They left three more in the sixth and three more in the seventh. One in the third, one in the fifth.

1573
02:16:04,000 --> 02:16:16,000
They've lost the restarts a bit more efficient. They've shot at only four, back for the inside corner. And Rohammer lifts his arms out of the way. Rohammer hits them hard at the plate, not so hard defensively.

1574
02:16:16,000 --> 02:16:36,000
A costly air, the last half of it. But at the plate, he is three for three with a pair of singles and a double. Rohammer now at this safely 11th straight game. Breaking ball is inside. And Rohammer at the plate, one and one.

1575
02:16:36,000 --> 02:16:48,000
Boston Reds on clinging to a one-run lead, nine to eight, the pitch. Inside, two and one to Rohammer.

1576
02:16:48,000 --> 02:17:06,000
The Reds on flexing their most brutal, the pair of three-run home runs. And that has helped out in this game. That's for, this is the outside edge, three and one. A three-run home run by Evans in the second. And then the three-run blast to the opposite field by Fred Lynn in the fourth.

1577
02:17:06,000 --> 02:17:18,000
Bolts into the net over the green markers. Winger to the bounding course, the first base for the high jumper at the eyes. Fairly underhand, too hard to lead time. It's a one-two-three inning. A rarity tonight. One-two-three to Boston Reds.

1578
02:17:18,000 --> 02:17:18,240
The Red Sox strong, the

1579
02:17:18,000 --> 02:17:38,000
final six, and it'll know how to handle it. At the end of seven, it's nine to eight Boston. Offense, Boston tonight in Fenway Park where it's nine to eight Boston. The Red Sox nine runs, ten hits, five errors. The Angels eight runs, ten hits, and one error. It's the double of each inning of play and the Angels will send up Jackson, Redsman, and then Fairly.

1580
02:17:38,000 --> 02:18:06,000
We bring to the mic Dick Enberg. Thank you, Al. Dick Drago. It's his ball game and he's picked very well for Boston all season long. He's doing much harder than when he performed as an Angel last year. He was traded to Baltimore one-to-one for Ryany Enterdyer Miller. And then played out his contract and signed with the Boston Red Sox. Ron Jackson will try to eight-inning a nine-eight score. Boston in front of it. A strike on the inside corner. Jackson a single, Ryan's got a double play, stable to fuel his choice and hit by a pitch.

1581
02:18:08,000 --> 02:18:18,000
Second to Ross Carullo in the American League batting derby with a.357 average entering the game. Right-hander against right-hander. The Rocks back and here's the pitch by Drago. Swing and a foul, tip, 0-2.

1582
02:18:18,000 --> 02:18:32,000
Merve Rettman on deck and then we're on Fairly. schedule here on the top of the eighth. East side with ten hits. Boston, the number one fielding team in the American League. Has committed five errors tonight but still lead by one.

1583
02:18:32,000 --> 02:18:46,000
Of the Angels, eight runs, seven on earth. Drago gets his nine from Cowden fifth. Rocks back and here comes the pitch. High and outside, one and two. Drago in fifth with Hops and a third.

1584
02:18:46,000 --> 02:19:07,000
The girls in the shorts, Brohamer and Scott on the right side of the box and then field the hands and left, lin and center, Evans and Wright. 31,652. Page here at Fenway as Drago's one-two pitch on his way. Almost did it, did. Nick, Ron Jackson, he's the board. He is on. Hesitating with Russ Gets and then finally says, Jeff, you're on.

1585
02:19:07,000 --> 02:19:19,000
No argument from Cowden fifth. So Jackson has set 10 to every pitch anyway. Gets nicked in the left shoulder by Nick Drago and the Angels have the lead off eight on here in the eighth inning.

1586
02:19:19,000 --> 02:19:36,000
You think circuses are fun and carnivals are fun? You've got to enjoy baseball at Fenway.

1587
02:19:36,000 --> 02:19:48,000
Nick Drago with Merv Retman settling in, watches John McNamara, the Angels third base. Got to go back to his position after a visit with Retman. The Angels play the tie of the game here in the eighth inning.

1588
02:19:48,000 --> 02:19:57,000
Retman is hitless tonight over three. He was up there with a base as far as a six inning and flying to set a field. That was Drago who got that out.

1589
02:19:57,000 --> 02:20:12,000
Right-hander settles at the waist, hits Retman inside a fat ball. He was not running. Fairly is on deck. Angels led by Throes, Joe Rudy's three hits, Jack Brohamer with three hits for Boston.

1590
02:20:12,000 --> 02:20:20,000
But the big swings have come from Dwight Evans, a three run homer and an RBI double and Fred Ledges only hit tonight as a three run homer.

1591
02:20:20,000 --> 02:20:29,000
The game is tied to eight, Boston. Drago, veteran right-hander, uses that little stair-step, seance system as he gets to the waist, the pitches outside and low.

1592
02:20:29,000 --> 02:20:39,000
Gets started to call it a strike and got his hand caught on the chest protector. Two and over count.

1593
02:20:39,000 --> 02:20:52,000
Alan Ripley and Bill Campbell are throwing in the Boston bullpen. Two right-handers, Campbell of course the ace of a Boston penland year.

1594
02:20:52,000 --> 02:20:59,000
Jackson, good runner at first eight. And only a man, two and 0 to count on Murr Retman, infield set for two.

1595
02:20:59,000 --> 02:21:09,000
He's going to go deliberately at the waist, the pitch, inside corner, a fat ball on Retman, throws his hand up and the catch. He thought that was bull three. Two and one to count.

1596
02:21:09,000 --> 02:21:16,000
Calvin Fitt taps out of the couch and kind of walks out a little huckle full on his legs and gets cramped sitting down there so long.

1597
02:21:16,000 --> 02:21:22,000
Drago does take a lot of time between pitches. His legs can go to sleep on him if you're a catcher in that squat.

1598
02:21:22,000 --> 02:21:29,000
The action pitch two and one. Kind red at first, no one out in the eighth inning, Boston nine, the angels eight.

1599
02:21:29,000 --> 02:21:33,000
Drago is ready. Over the shoulder, look at the runner at first. Here comes the pitch.

1600
02:21:33,000 --> 02:21:38,000
Swinging a foul out of play. That's up on the roof on the first base side.

1601
02:21:38,000 --> 02:21:45,000
Two balls, two strikes to Retman. The launch in the first inning, save on an error in the third. Out on a good play by Brilson in the hole in the fifth.

1602
02:21:45,000 --> 02:21:50,000
And fly to shallow center to Fred Lind with the bases loaded in the sixth.

1603
02:21:50,000 --> 02:21:54,000
The angels have had plenty of opportunity.

1604
02:21:54,000 --> 02:22:01,000
And with all the hits and runs scored, the key statistic of the game, left arm baked, angels 11, Boston four.

1605
02:22:01,000 --> 02:22:05,000
Jackson has his lead. Here's the two-two pitch.

1606
02:22:05,000 --> 02:22:10,000
Playing a little ground ball up the middle. Up with it, Brilson. He goes to second for one and that's all they'll get.

1607
02:22:10,000 --> 02:22:17,000
And save at first on a field that starts to Dretman. Gammed on the flight, didn't get it hard enough for the double play.

1608
02:22:17,000 --> 02:22:24,000
That brings up Ron Fairley, the veteran first baseman, and the two-run single. And he doubles in the sixth inning in score.

1609
02:22:24,000 --> 02:22:27,000
Two for ball for Fairley.

1610
02:22:27,000 --> 02:22:31,000
Good job, a solid job as always with the angels and even with that long distance to right field.

1611
02:22:31,000 --> 02:22:34,000
And it's a tough right field, 380 behind the right fielder.

1612
02:22:34,000 --> 02:22:37,000
If you pull the ball sharply, you can get a fairly easy home run.

1613
02:22:37,000 --> 02:22:44,000
But you have to hit it about 15 feet from that foul ball because that ball angles sharply down into the corner.

1614
02:22:44,000 --> 02:22:51,000
Infield, set for two so that gives Fairley a hole on the right side to pull the ball, Scott holding on Dretman.

1615
02:22:51,000 --> 02:22:57,000
The angels lose a half step and speed at first in exchange of Jackson and Dretman.

1616
02:22:57,000 --> 02:23:01,000
Set by Dregold at the waist for pitch.

1617
02:23:01,000 --> 02:23:06,000
Frank, outside runner, good fat ball.

1618
02:23:06,000 --> 02:23:17,000
The final for Baltimore Orioles, they're going to 11th in a row, 5-4 against Seattle, 5-8 and 0 for the Birds, four runs, 10 hits for the Mariners.

1619
02:23:17,000 --> 02:23:19,000
Don, stand up.

1620
02:23:19,000 --> 02:23:22,000
And a release for Kipi Martinez, got the save.

1621
02:23:22,000 --> 02:23:25,000
Martinez going to win the winner, Colbert won it by a peloton.

1622
02:23:25,000 --> 02:23:33,000
The 0-1 pitch, swing the foul pitch, caught by Fisk and right hander Drego quickly in front on the count, two strikes on Fairley.

1623
02:23:33,000 --> 02:23:37,000
They have 15,212 to welcome Baltimore home from a great road trip.

1624
02:23:37,000 --> 02:23:43,000
They were 9-1 on the road and they win tonight 5-4 against Seattle.

1625
02:23:43,000 --> 02:23:52,000
They've gone from three games under 500 to eight above in the last two weeks.

1626
02:23:52,000 --> 02:23:56,000
Drego has his time from 5th, Dretman the safely to first base.

1627
02:23:56,000 --> 02:24:02,000
Here's the pitch, high, a fat ball, two and one, one and two, one ball, two strikes.

1628
02:24:02,000 --> 02:24:06,000
Gator joined his late, the Angels got three in the first off-starter bill lead,

1629
02:24:06,000 --> 02:24:12,000
but the Red Sox came back with a three-run home run by Dwight Evans, off-starter Tom Griffin to tie in the second.

1630
02:24:12,000 --> 02:24:16,000
Then in the fourth when the Angels come up to double play ball, they would have gotten Griffin out of the inning.

1631
02:24:16,000 --> 02:24:19,000
The Red Sox went on to score four, three of them on Fred Limb's old run.

1632
02:24:19,000 --> 02:24:22,000
Angels one and a fifth, three and a sixth.

1633
02:24:22,000 --> 02:24:27,000
They tied the game at seven, but the Red Sox scored two and a sixth, the Angels back with one and a seventh.

1634
02:24:27,000 --> 02:24:32,000
Down nine-eighths, the fifth, swinging a shot by the diving Pro Hammer in the right field for a base hit.

1635
02:24:32,000 --> 02:24:35,000
Holding it first was Dretman to make sure the ball was in front.

1636
02:24:35,000 --> 02:24:41,000
He now goes to second and the Angels have the time and go ahead, runners aboard with one out of the eighth inning

1637
02:24:41,000 --> 02:24:48,000
and barely sends a low-line drive just out of the reach to the glove side of Pro Hammer for his third hit of the night.

1638
02:24:48,000 --> 02:24:55,000
Here's Dave Chalk a bun single and ground out safe on an error, and he lined out the yards and left his last time up.

1639
02:24:55,000 --> 02:25:01,000
Got to get a little nervous in the crowd of Fenway partisans.

1640
02:25:01,000 --> 02:25:07,000
Don Zimmer right up on that dugout step, staring out at Dick Drago.

1641
02:25:07,000 --> 02:25:11,000
Chalk up on the handle of the bat, Madman powered to try to move the ball around, keep it in play.

1642
02:25:11,000 --> 02:25:15,000
Dallin right is Evans, a base hit to the right, I don't think Dretman can score.

1643
02:25:15,000 --> 02:25:21,000
Hugging the line and Dallin assert his hop-in, hit by Drago on the outside corner for a strike.

1644
02:25:21,000 --> 02:25:27,000
Drago jumps in front of Thalia on two, but the veterans work just a one and two and then rifle the singles.

1645
02:25:27,000 --> 02:25:31,000
Dretman in scoring position at second base.

1646
02:25:31,000 --> 02:25:35,000
The Angels now vouch it for Austin 11-10.

1647
02:25:35,000 --> 02:25:38,000
Chalk at 291, hit around the season.

1648
02:25:38,000 --> 02:25:42,000
Choked up about as much as anyone in the league now, way up on the handle.

1649
02:25:42,000 --> 02:25:47,000
Drago ready, the pick. Outside, a breaking ball, one and one.

1650
02:25:47,000 --> 02:25:50,000
Brian Downing would be next.

1651
02:25:50,000 --> 02:25:55,000
Again, the Angels without Charney Lampert and his replacement from the Pacific Coast, the Dave McNamara,

1652
02:25:55,000 --> 02:26:00,000
a deep three, stolen 20 bases already this year, at least, with ECL and hitting 380.

1653
02:26:00,000 --> 02:26:03,000
Will probably report here in Boston to the club tomorrow.

1654
02:26:03,000 --> 02:26:06,000
So the Angels are without Lampert and Baylor with a hamstring ball.

1655
02:26:06,000 --> 02:26:11,000
Maybe they're two best power right-handed hitters in this ballpark.

1656
02:26:11,000 --> 02:26:13,000
One-one hit, low, two and one.

1657
02:26:13,000 --> 02:26:19,000
That's really short-changing yourselves to be without that kind of box in Fenway.

1658
02:26:19,000 --> 02:26:22,000
And to that, Terry Humphrey's shoulder.

1659
02:26:22,000 --> 02:26:25,000
The Angels catchers, and he's done on the bench.

1660
02:26:25,000 --> 02:26:31,000
Jim Brugosi, like dealing out the cards, a seven-card polter and you only get five-cards.

1661
02:26:31,000 --> 02:26:33,000
He'll try to keep the opposition.

1662
02:26:33,000 --> 02:26:36,000
Quite exaggeration, but that's what's the Al Brugosi deal.

1663
02:26:36,000 --> 02:26:40,000
Runners at first and second, two-one hit, chalk piles it away.

1664
02:26:40,000 --> 02:26:45,000
Off to the right and Lam in a photographer well, off the guy box section,

1665
02:26:45,000 --> 02:26:49,000
and skips up into that two-three row of the seat.

1666
02:26:49,000 --> 02:27:00,000
That accommodates the man at San Diego Fenway, but basically the only one-feared park him a major league.

1667
02:27:00,000 --> 02:27:05,000
Left-hander Dave LaRoche starts to throw in the Angel bullpen.

1668
02:27:05,000 --> 02:27:09,000
And the two right-handers Ripley and Campbell still at work behind Rego for Boston.

1669
02:27:09,000 --> 02:27:11,000
Two balls, two strikes.

1670
02:27:11,000 --> 02:27:14,000
Ripley leads from second, barely off-first.

1671
02:27:14,000 --> 02:27:16,000
Drake going to wait, the pitch.

1672
02:27:16,000 --> 02:27:18,000
Outside, ball three.

1673
02:27:18,000 --> 02:27:23,000
He went three and two with the bases loaded to Rudy in the last inning before Rudy flied out.

1674
02:27:23,000 --> 02:27:26,000
And the drama at Fenway tonight has been superb.

1675
02:27:26,000 --> 02:27:34,000
No matter which side you're pulling for, I don't know if you've fans listening early morning hours in other parts of the world,

1676
02:27:34,000 --> 02:27:37,000
this is a baseball delight.

1677
02:27:37,000 --> 02:27:42,000
Like sitting yourself down at the table and they just keep bringing the food, all your favorites.

1678
02:27:42,000 --> 02:27:44,000
And to eighth, Boston.

1679
02:27:44,000 --> 02:27:47,000
Rego backs off the rubber.

1680
02:27:47,000 --> 02:27:51,000
Rettman being alerted by Machamer.

1681
02:27:51,000 --> 02:27:54,000
He's got to hurry now, those good outfielders for Boston on a base hit.

1682
02:27:54,000 --> 02:27:57,000
Barely off-first.

1683
02:27:57,000 --> 02:27:58,000
And the three to pitch.

1684
02:27:58,000 --> 02:28:02,000
Roo and the bases are loaded.

1685
02:28:02,000 --> 02:28:09,000
One out, shot to first, barely to second, and Rettman to third.

1686
02:28:09,000 --> 02:28:13,000
And the bases loaded time and time again this evening.

1687
02:28:13,000 --> 02:28:16,000
Great time ending an inning with three minute more.

1688
02:28:16,000 --> 02:28:20,000
And they've got him drunk again.

1689
02:28:20,000 --> 02:28:25,000
Here comes Tony Salida to bat for Brian Downing.

1690
02:28:25,000 --> 02:28:31,000
Salida, the powerful Samoan, who has done a great job coming off the bench.

1691
02:28:31,000 --> 02:28:34,000
And it's been the angel's top ten hitters.

1692
02:28:34,000 --> 02:28:36,000
He's up there with one out.

1693
02:28:36,000 --> 02:28:39,000
Not much speed, so he's a good double play man.

1694
02:28:39,000 --> 02:28:43,000
But as strong as anyone in that angel dugout.

1695
02:28:43,000 --> 02:28:54,000
And has the power to even the fool to go to left field and get the monster.

1696
02:28:54,000 --> 02:28:56,000
Like time against Boston.

1697
02:28:56,000 --> 02:28:59,000
Salida is hitting three fifty.

1698
02:28:59,000 --> 02:29:05,000
And as soon as he's introduced, Zimmer comes out of the dugout before he gets to the foul line.

1699
02:29:05,000 --> 02:29:10,000
And he waves with the right hand, because he wants Bill Campbell to come in from the bullpen.

1700
02:29:10,000 --> 02:29:18,000
So Campbell will be the fourth Boston Pitcher of the night.

1701
02:29:18,000 --> 02:29:22,000
Here's the spot where Tom Bergmeyer, the left-hander, was not throwing.

1702
02:29:22,000 --> 02:29:25,000
Zimmer had two right-handers, so he cannot counter with the left-hander.

1703
02:29:25,000 --> 02:29:30,000
He's going to go with Campbell, who has an excellent screwball, and his tough on left-handers.

1704
02:29:30,000 --> 02:29:35,000
So Drago goes out, picks himself out of two bases loaded jams.

1705
02:29:35,000 --> 02:29:40,000
One left for him by Bob Stanley in the sixth, and one of his own in the seventh.

1706
02:29:40,000 --> 02:29:42,000
And he leaves with the bases loaded.

1707
02:29:42,000 --> 02:29:45,000
And Campbell is carted in from the right center field bullpen area.

1708
02:29:45,000 --> 02:29:48,000
With a break in the action, let's go on Al Witt.

1709
02:29:48,000 --> 02:29:50,000
Hi Dick, you can take a time.

1710
02:29:50,000 --> 02:29:58,000
That walk to chalk was the seventh given up by Boston pitching plus two hit batters.

1711
02:29:58,000 --> 02:30:02,000
So that's nine more base runners plus five errors plus 11 hits.

1712
02:30:02,000 --> 02:30:06,000
To give the Angels eight runs, still thought Goodenbilt to be in front.

1713
02:30:06,000 --> 02:30:12,000
Boston has nine, and Bill Campbell, the bearded right-hander, begins turning up with Cantor Calvin fifth.

1714
02:30:12,000 --> 02:30:17,000
He has a good screwball, and around the batting cage before the game tonight,

1715
02:30:17,000 --> 02:30:21,000
some of the Red Sox players commenting on what a good screw he had in Seattle his last alley.

1716
02:30:21,000 --> 02:30:25,000
So he's got four men and two perfect relief innings.

1717
02:30:25,000 --> 02:30:30,000
The tying run for the Angels with one out is represented by Merv Rettman standing in third

1718
02:30:30,000 --> 02:30:34,000
in conversation with his coach John Maximera.

1719
02:30:34,000 --> 02:30:37,000
Ron Fairley, the veteran, is at second base.

1720
02:30:37,000 --> 02:30:39,000
And Dave Chalk at first.

1721
02:30:39,000 --> 02:30:43,000
Tony Salida has been hitting around 400 off the bench,

1722
02:30:43,000 --> 02:30:48,000
but his season average doesn't reflect that because overall he's hitting 245.

1723
02:30:48,000 --> 02:30:54,000
One home run and nine runs batted in.

1724
02:30:54,000 --> 02:30:58,000
Campbell, the ace of the full-center Boston the last couple of years,

1725
02:30:58,000 --> 02:31:03,000
although he's had some rough outings this year, and his ERA reflects that.

1726
02:31:03,000 --> 02:31:07,000
5.40, base is full, Enfield looking for two to pitch to Salida.

1727
02:31:07,000 --> 02:31:10,000
High ball in.

1728
02:31:10,000 --> 02:31:12,000
Campbell, two wins.

1729
02:31:12,000 --> 02:31:14,000
Check that, his ERA is higher than that.

1730
02:31:14,000 --> 02:31:16,000
7.24 for Campbell.

1731
02:31:16,000 --> 02:31:18,000
Two wins and four bosses he's saved, too.

1732
02:31:18,000 --> 02:31:20,000
So he has not pitched that way.

1733
02:31:20,000 --> 02:31:23,000
He's only worked his 13th and two thirds innings.

1734
02:31:23,000 --> 02:31:25,000
Ninety-fourths, Salida waits.

1735
02:31:25,000 --> 02:31:26,000
Campbell to the plate.

1736
02:31:26,000 --> 02:31:30,000
To the outside of the hole, ball two.

1737
02:31:30,000 --> 02:31:34,000
Two balls, no strikes, and now Salida hits with his third base touch

1738
02:31:34,000 --> 02:31:37,000
to see if that green light is flashing.

1739
02:31:37,000 --> 02:31:40,000
The outfield, playing Salida with respect.

1740
02:31:40,000 --> 02:31:41,000
Deep in the right is Evers.

1741
02:31:41,000 --> 02:31:43,000
Right center a couple of steps is Lynn.

1742
02:31:43,000 --> 02:31:46,000
Back forward by a warning tap and left in front of the scoreboard gets empty.

1743
02:31:46,000 --> 02:31:48,000
Enfield set for two.

1744
02:31:48,000 --> 02:31:50,000
The two-goal pitch by Campbell.

1745
02:31:50,000 --> 02:31:53,000
Roll, ball three.

1746
02:31:53,000 --> 02:31:58,000
So now Campbell, in a terrible bind, with a base devoted,

1747
02:31:58,000 --> 02:32:03,000
has to throw strikes down 3-0 or walk in the tying run.

1748
02:32:03,000 --> 02:32:07,000
Meanwhile, Salida, if he wanted to, could be sitting on a pitch

1749
02:32:07,000 --> 02:32:09,000
that he could really drive 3-0.

1750
02:32:09,000 --> 02:32:11,000
Ragosi, the gambling manager, he's shown that already,

1751
02:32:11,000 --> 02:32:15,000
the 3-0 pitch strikes across the letters and nearly throws.

1752
02:32:15,000 --> 02:32:17,000
Oh, that was supposed to be ball four.

1753
02:32:17,000 --> 02:32:22,000
What a lettering of the Angels on the front of the great uniform.

1754
02:32:22,000 --> 02:32:25,000
Campbell nervously goes to the round, then back, throws it aside,

1755
02:32:25,000 --> 02:32:28,000
pitches with his cap, wheels to the ground, over his head,

1756
02:32:28,000 --> 02:32:30,000
now rips that right foot on the front edge to the rubber.

1757
02:32:30,000 --> 02:32:33,000
Rettman is third, barely a second, and Dawkins first lead away.

1758
02:32:33,000 --> 02:32:36,000
One out, 9-8 in the eighth inning, the 3-1 pitch.

1759
02:32:36,000 --> 02:32:39,000
Outside and the game is tied.

1760
02:32:39,000 --> 02:32:47,000
That is only the second earned run scored by the Angels in the game,

1761
02:32:47,000 --> 02:32:50,000
and you almost have to bite your tongue saying earned about that one

1762
02:32:50,000 --> 02:32:54,000
because it comes around only one single, a hit battered, a couple of walks.

1763
02:32:54,000 --> 02:32:59,000
The run will be tied to Dick Drago as Rettman walks off with a ninth run,

1764
02:32:59,000 --> 02:33:03,000
a 9-9 tie, and Ken Landrow steps up,

1765
02:33:03,000 --> 02:33:06,000
the un-left-handed hitting right fielder, single this last time up.

1766
02:33:06,000 --> 02:33:09,000
He's one for 40, scored two runs.

1767
02:33:09,000 --> 02:33:11,000
Good speed, a tough man to double up.

1768
02:33:11,000 --> 02:33:14,000
Salida at first, Dawkins second, barely a third,

1769
02:33:14,000 --> 02:33:17,000
outfield toward right, Campbell fifth, and delivers.

1770
02:33:17,000 --> 02:33:23,000
Swing and a miss, and Landrow good start at a breaking ball.

1771
02:33:23,000 --> 02:33:27,000
Ken has one over, and seven runs batted in, starts tonight at 2.47.

1772
02:33:27,000 --> 02:33:30,000
So the Angels led in the first inning when they scored three,

1773
02:33:30,000 --> 02:33:32,000
but after Boston tied in the third,

1774
02:33:32,000 --> 02:33:36,000
the Angels have been playing catch-ups ever since and finally are back even at nine.

1775
02:33:36,000 --> 02:33:41,000
The pitch, right down the middle, and Landrow took a fast ball right there.

1776
02:33:41,000 --> 02:33:45,000
Two strikes on Kenny.

1777
02:33:45,000 --> 02:33:48,000
And the final in from New York, Ron Gendry has done it again.

1778
02:33:48,000 --> 02:33:51,000
He's 10-0, he's shut out Oakland on three hits.

1779
02:33:51,000 --> 02:33:58,000
New York 2, Oakland nothing, so that plays an important role in what happens here tonight.

1780
02:33:58,000 --> 02:34:02,000
The pitch, swing and a miss, he's looking out.

1781
02:34:02,000 --> 02:34:06,000
A through ball against Landrow, and there's two away.

1782
02:34:06,000 --> 02:34:12,000
Nates is still loaded for Bobby Gritton.

1783
02:34:12,000 --> 02:34:18,000
Landrow got to one pitch, a group of three that was set to hit, and caught looking on that.

1784
02:34:18,000 --> 02:34:21,000
That was the second pitch, the fast ball down the middle,

1785
02:34:21,000 --> 02:34:24,000
and a hit on the count of two, Campbell gave him that tough through ball,

1786
02:34:24,000 --> 02:34:26,000
and Landrow couldn't find it.

1787
02:34:26,000 --> 02:34:30,000
Next up then, a hit tonight, he's hit safely a five in a row, he's won for five,

1788
02:34:30,000 --> 02:34:33,000
eight-betting, and Gritton's tough for the sixth time in the game.

1789
02:34:33,000 --> 02:34:36,000
Nine-nine guy, two out, the Angels with a base is full.

1790
02:34:36,000 --> 02:34:40,000
Gritton's waiting, Campbell kicks the deal, third ball, five-all-one.

1791
02:34:40,000 --> 02:34:44,000
Gritton's tough man, he'll make it those strikes.

1792
02:34:44,000 --> 02:34:52,000
Again, Yankees 2, and Oakland nothing, Matt Keele, another fine-ticking job in defeat.

1793
02:34:52,000 --> 02:34:56,000
Heverloh was given a loss, and released, yeah, 2-2.

1794
02:34:56,000 --> 02:34:59,000
1-0-10, swinging a foul back.

1795
02:34:59,000 --> 02:35:04,000
Give a retent on the winner, Heverloh and the losers 2-2, they have 27 fouls and 7-21 in New York.

1796
02:35:04,000 --> 02:35:09,000
The Yankee runs came on home runs by Randolph at third, Nettles at fourth, 2-0 New York.

1797
02:35:09,000 --> 02:35:13,000
The Yankees are six behind Boston, Oakland is lost if the Angels could win tonight,

1798
02:35:13,000 --> 02:35:15,000
they'd be only a half game out of first place.

1799
02:35:15,000 --> 02:35:20,000
Currently tied for second with the Texas Rangers one and a half hours.

1800
02:35:20,000 --> 02:35:25,000
Another foul, Cubs at Cincinnati, 3-2, 3-6-0 for Cubs, 2-4-2 for Cincinnati,

1801
02:35:25,000 --> 02:35:31,000
Chicago a game ahead of Philadelphia, and then thanks to the Leafs, East, wins that Cincinnati 3-2.

1802
02:35:31,000 --> 02:35:37,000
Here's the hit to Gritton, step-swing foul, and it goes off to the right as Gritton tries to keep the bat away,

1803
02:35:37,000 --> 02:35:44,000
and that ball hits the handle and comes to the box, he's really one ball, two strikes to Gritton.

1804
02:35:44,000 --> 02:35:51,000
George Foster hit his sixth, eighth, seventh, sixth at his 14th home run of the year, George Foster for Cincinnati.

1805
02:35:51,000 --> 02:35:57,000
That wasn't enough, it's Russell 8-4, he's bottomed 7-1, first loss for Bill Bonham, 30,190 at Cincinnati.

1806
02:35:57,000 --> 02:36:02,000
Here, a 9-9 tie, bases loaded with Angels, 2-0 on the eighth inning of Dolph Campbell,

1807
02:36:02,000 --> 02:36:06,000
ahead of a count of Bobby Gritch one and two.

1808
02:36:06,000 --> 02:36:09,000
Gritch has three home runs and 16 runs batted in.

1809
02:36:09,000 --> 02:36:13,000
He's up on the handle of the bat, trying to guard the play, didn't want to hard someplace.

1810
02:36:13,000 --> 02:36:17,000
Enfield, Aldi, Thompson deep guarding the line at third.

1811
02:36:17,000 --> 02:36:20,000
The outfield straight away, a deep time call, does Campbell take too much time,

1812
02:36:20,000 --> 02:36:26,000
and Fitz is going to go out and make sure that he and his right-handed reliever are in sync.

1813
02:36:26,000 --> 02:36:32,000
A hit batter, a single by Sarley, and a couple of walks have tied the game here on the ninth inning.

1814
02:36:32,000 --> 02:36:35,000
The Angels have scored in each of the last four innings.

1815
02:36:35,000 --> 02:36:41,000
After three in the first inning, shutout to Lafitte when they got one, three in the sixth, one in the seventh, one here in the eighth.

1816
02:36:41,000 --> 02:36:46,000
And we start over again. The Angels with another glorious chance, bases full.

1817
02:36:46,000 --> 02:36:49,000
Gritch out with Lyman, Bostock, two minutes.

1818
02:36:49,000 --> 02:36:54,000
One and two to the count. Campbell, staring, staring, staring, now he has his time.

1819
02:36:54,000 --> 02:36:59,000
The low target and the pitch. Swing and a miss, quick free.

1820
02:36:59,000 --> 02:37:04,000
Gritch commands the turnball, low and outside, and Campbell does some fancy dishes.

1821
02:37:04,000 --> 02:37:09,000
The Angels get a run on a hit, no hands, and for the fourth time in the game,

1822
02:37:09,000 --> 02:37:13,000
I believe the danger loaded, they've ran it 14 minutes.

1823
02:37:13,000 --> 02:37:17,000
After seven and a half, nine, nine times.

1824
02:37:22,000 --> 02:37:26,000
Frank Gilner, Glenn Evans, leads off the eight for Boston, takes the breaking ball low, ball one.

1825
02:37:26,000 --> 02:37:28,000
Hartford working quickly to the fifth.

1826
02:37:28,000 --> 02:37:33,000
We have a shot, the first backhand by Jepson in third territory, the first cross is in time.

1827
02:37:33,000 --> 02:37:40,000
Good he plays.

1828
02:37:40,000 --> 02:37:45,000
And the appreciative Boston fans applaud to the existing third baseman, Ron Jackson,

1829
02:37:45,000 --> 02:37:48,000
who made a dive for the line to backhand that ball.

1830
02:37:48,000 --> 02:37:53,000
In normal conditions, that's a two-base hit, but in a tie game in the late innings,

1831
02:37:53,000 --> 02:37:57,000
that third baseman is sitting right on the line, and even then, Jackson's barely got it.

1832
02:37:57,000 --> 02:38:01,000
And Evans whips it, five-one-hot, first pitch to Hobson outside, a breaking ball.

1833
02:38:01,000 --> 02:38:05,000
Evans, two for four, four out of the eyes, and trying to get something going in the eighth.

1834
02:38:05,000 --> 02:38:12,000
Hobson, grounded weakly to short, charged by Chalk, he goes across the fairway, two away.

1835
02:38:12,000 --> 02:38:16,000
Now for Harsell, who's got to have the most successful pitcher of the game,

1836
02:38:16,000 --> 02:38:17,000
he's just got to go for it.

1837
02:38:17,000 --> 02:38:37,000
And it's an in for an inning and two thirds, and has retired five in an order.

1838
02:38:37,000 --> 02:38:41,000
Burlton takes a fast ball low, ball one, the leadoff man for the Red Sox tonight,

1839
02:38:41,000 --> 02:38:46,000
has singles right and five points to center, once the very deep center field, he's not going to rush.

1840
02:38:46,000 --> 02:38:51,000
Harsell pitches a fast ball in there, one and one.

1841
02:38:51,000 --> 02:38:56,000
A nine-nine tie in Boston.

1842
02:38:56,000 --> 02:39:00,000
Incredible set, we receive ourselves, and at the risk of doing that,

1843
02:39:00,000 --> 02:39:04,000
Angels, 14 left on base, Boston, four.

1844
02:39:04,000 --> 02:39:10,000
The pitch, swinging a miss, good hard slinger in on the hand, Rick Rolton, it's one and two.

1845
02:39:10,000 --> 02:39:12,000
Terry Elfrey, taking over behind the place of the Angels,

1846
02:39:12,000 --> 02:39:16,000
it's a fact that he has a very painful sore shoulder.

1847
02:39:16,000 --> 02:39:20,000
Burlton wants to see the baseball, Harsell lobs it into his canter, and Russ Guetzel,

1848
02:39:20,000 --> 02:39:25,000
like that, veteran played on fire, notes the flaw, and puts a new one in play.

1849
02:39:25,000 --> 02:39:33,000
Burlton with a good eye, he didn't spot nothing.

1850
02:39:33,000 --> 02:39:36,000
Burlton waving the wood, the pitch, swinging a shot to third,

1851
02:39:36,000 --> 02:39:40,000
and there's Jackson playing deep right on the line to glove it, and throwing it out.

1852
02:39:40,000 --> 02:39:44,000
The positioning of the third baseman paid off, two hard hit balls,

1853
02:39:44,000 --> 02:39:46,000
both would have been hit earlier in the game,

1854
02:39:46,000 --> 02:39:50,000
they come out and Jackson fields that hot corner splendidly.

1855
02:39:50,000 --> 02:39:57,000
Three up, three down, after eight and nine-nine ties.

1856
02:39:57,000 --> 02:40:00,000
Bill Campbell warming up with his canter, Calvin Tick, in the ninth inning.

1857
02:40:00,000 --> 02:40:03,000
The right hander will face Honestoc, Rudy, and Jackson of the Angels,

1858
02:40:03,000 --> 02:40:07,000
when Campbell with a base as low as truck out Lambrough has ripped,

1859
02:40:07,000 --> 02:40:10,000
and the eighth inning, those were the first two Boston strikeouts of the evening.

1860
02:40:10,000 --> 02:40:13,000
Bill Lee started, went five innings, allowed 400 runs, fixed it,

1861
02:40:13,000 --> 02:40:16,000
walked two truck outs on Bob Stanley, two firsts of an inning,

1862
02:40:16,000 --> 02:40:18,000
three runs, one earth, three hits, two warts.

1863
02:40:18,000 --> 02:40:22,000
Dick Drago on inning and two firsts, two runs, one earth, two hits,

1864
02:40:22,000 --> 02:40:25,000
three warts, and now Bill Campbell,

1865
02:40:25,000 --> 02:40:28,000
going to walk one and truck out two, three men, he's base coming in,

1866
02:40:28,000 --> 02:40:30,000
with a base as low as an eight inning.

1867
02:40:30,000 --> 02:40:34,000
Vossoc, Bob is three fourths on Vossoc, to the Boston skipper, Timmer,

1868
02:40:34,000 --> 02:40:38,000
trying to hit to him, and the Red Sox have avoided that best they can.

1869
02:40:38,000 --> 02:40:41,000
They've walked him intensely the last two times up.

1870
02:40:41,000 --> 02:40:44,000
He has a single and three trips.

1871
02:40:44,000 --> 02:40:46,000
A 12-game hitting streak for Vossoc.

1872
02:40:46,000 --> 02:40:50,000
Campbell delivers inside with a breaking ball.

1873
02:40:50,000 --> 02:40:53,000
Former teammates for the Minnesota Twins, Bill Campbell and Lyman Vossoc,

1874
02:40:53,000 --> 02:41:00,000
both playing out their contact and signing rich, new deals with their clubs presently.

1875
02:41:00,000 --> 02:41:03,000
True ball lined the right field, but it's going to stay up,

1876
02:41:03,000 --> 02:41:06,000
and Evans is there to make the catch.

1877
02:41:06,000 --> 02:41:09,000
Vossoc on, right field to Dwight Evans.

1878
02:41:09,000 --> 02:41:11,000
That was a true ball. He ran as well.

1879
02:41:11,000 --> 02:41:15,000
He steps out to Campbell as he goes by him on his way to the third base, dugout.

1880
02:41:15,000 --> 02:41:19,000
Joe Rudy, the first inning, lined a double wall play.

1881
02:41:19,000 --> 02:41:22,000
Base to the wall in left field, a drive in a red light,

1882
02:41:22,000 --> 02:41:25,000
a score himself, walk in the third, singled in the fifth.

1883
02:41:25,000 --> 02:41:27,000
When they won Vossoc, it was two-hundred and six,

1884
02:41:27,000 --> 02:41:31,000
but he sits alone the base to be promptly singled to center field to drive in two warts.

1885
02:41:31,000 --> 02:41:35,000
And then with a base to the seventh and a three-two pitch he flies to right.

1886
02:41:35,000 --> 02:41:37,000
Three for four for Rudy.

1887
02:41:37,000 --> 02:41:42,000
Three on the eyes, give him thirteen for the year.

1888
02:41:42,000 --> 02:41:44,000
Joe has two home runs.

1889
02:41:44,000 --> 02:41:47,000
Campbell will throw off a long one now, and then the pitch.

1890
02:41:47,000 --> 02:41:52,000
In there came Rudy, but it was inside.

1891
02:41:52,000 --> 02:41:54,000
Minnesota Toronto has been postponed.

1892
02:41:54,000 --> 02:41:56,000
Rain in Ontario.

1893
02:41:56,000 --> 02:42:01,000
Milwaukee leading point seven four in the bottom of the eighth inning at Tiger Stadium, Detroit.

1894
02:42:01,000 --> 02:42:04,000
McOkey of the Inks shut out Oakland two-nothing.

1895
02:42:04,000 --> 02:42:08,000
Baltimore are best at Seattle five-four.

1896
02:42:08,000 --> 02:42:10,000
The set by Campbell, and a one-strike pitch.

1897
02:42:10,000 --> 02:42:12,000
Playing on the top of the short,

1898
02:42:12,000 --> 02:42:17,000
Brilson charges at the ugly hop, has to go in a hurry and gets his man by a step.

1899
02:42:17,000 --> 02:42:22,000
Straight on with Brilson in shortstop, and there's two-bond in the top of the ninth inning.

1900
02:42:22,000 --> 02:42:25,000
Ronan Jensen is one for three.

1901
02:42:25,000 --> 02:42:27,000
Singleton short and a first.

1902
02:42:27,000 --> 02:42:28,000
Rhyme into a double play.

1903
02:42:28,000 --> 02:42:31,000
A vicious line drive back to the mound of Bill Leary.

1904
02:42:31,000 --> 02:42:34,000
In the third inning, it felt to have been stabbed and turned into two.

1905
02:42:34,000 --> 02:42:39,000
Saban of Hill, Detroit, from the last two times up, he's been hit by a pitch.

1906
02:42:39,000 --> 02:42:46,000
At Kansas City, the Royals have just scored four times in the seventh inning to tie the game at five against Texas.

1907
02:42:46,000 --> 02:42:51,000
But Al Oliver did a solo home run in the eighth, so it's now six-five Texas top of the eighth at KC.

1908
02:42:51,000 --> 02:42:52,000
One-nothing.

1909
02:42:52,000 --> 02:42:54,000
Chicago over Cleveland after seven.

1910
02:42:54,000 --> 02:42:58,000
The Cots are getting great pitching, but they've made a change in the top of the eighth.

1911
02:42:58,000 --> 02:43:00,000
A pitch to Jackson.

1912
02:43:00,000 --> 02:43:02,000
Change is low, ball one.

1913
02:43:02,000 --> 02:43:04,000
Nantz-O-Lake, Atlanta beats St. Louis 2-1.

1914
02:43:04,000 --> 02:43:06,000
Caps over Cincinnati 3-2.

1915
02:43:06,000 --> 02:43:09,000
Pittsburgh against a 3-0 lead at Houston in the sixth.

1916
02:43:09,000 --> 02:43:14,000
Philadelphia trails the Dodgers 6-4.

1917
02:43:14,000 --> 02:43:18,000
After eight innings in Los Angeles, Jackson takes ball two.

1918
02:43:18,000 --> 02:43:21,000
Ducky Baker in the grand slam-over on a back game.

1919
02:43:21,000 --> 02:43:24,000
Houston hits two home runs, 14th of the year.

1920
02:43:24,000 --> 02:43:30,000
Monday's hit is 12th minute night, so long balling in Dodger Stadium in L.A. up front.

1921
02:43:30,000 --> 02:43:33,000
6-4, still up top of the night.

1922
02:43:33,000 --> 02:43:37,000
No score meant to send the eagle bottom to second, and the Giants deep-marched it all one-nothing.

1923
02:43:37,000 --> 02:43:40,000
The 2-0 pitch coming up to Jackson.

1924
02:43:40,000 --> 02:43:43,000
Hyde inside, up under the 10th, 3-0.

1925
02:43:43,000 --> 02:43:48,000
Jackson was swinging, so he was really stepping into that one, looking for something he could yank out of here.

1926
02:43:48,000 --> 02:43:51,000
He went with his chin.

1927
02:43:51,000 --> 02:43:55,000
Three balls, no strikes.

1928
02:43:55,000 --> 02:43:58,000
Merb Rettman with the next.

1929
02:43:58,000 --> 02:44:01,000
Wynn continues to blow toward left-hand quite as strong as early in the game.

1930
02:44:01,000 --> 02:44:07,000
Playing a high-five ball, the left-field, Rue Keane, he has coming in for it, and he makes the pass.

1931
02:44:07,000 --> 02:44:12,000
Jackson 3-9 at 3-0, but didn't have a very good swing.

1932
02:44:12,000 --> 02:44:19,000
The Eagles got it all in. We go to the bottom of the ninth inning. Wynn, Reitz, Yudhsitse, Duke, and Boston in a 9-9 tie.

1933
02:44:19,000 --> 02:44:25,000
Bottom of the ninth inning, and the Eagles come in with their top left-handed reliever, Dave LaRoche.

1934
02:44:25,000 --> 02:44:29,000
LaRoche, the base, Wynn, Reitz, and Yudhsitse.

1935
02:44:29,000 --> 02:44:33,000
LaRoche, missed yesterday, and missed that two-day.

1936
02:44:33,000 --> 02:44:39,000
Now, as Wynn has the win, with three-1 headings in relief.

1937
02:44:39,000 --> 02:44:44,000
He's 5-2 on the year with a club high of 7 saves.

1938
02:44:44,000 --> 02:44:46,000
He had a 2.88.

1939
02:44:46,000 --> 02:44:51,000
Wynn, with a three-run homer and four at bats, takes a 9-1.

1940
02:44:51,000 --> 02:44:53,000
LaRoche and Humphrey, the Eagles battering.

1941
02:44:53,000 --> 02:44:56,000
Jackson, short, rich, and barely on the infield.

1942
02:44:56,000 --> 02:45:00,000
The men of the barters, barely a first, and Jackson is third, right on the line.

1943
02:45:00,000 --> 02:45:04,000
The outfield of Rudy Boczka, the land road, up the right.

1944
02:45:04,000 --> 02:45:09,000
Out of line, and Boston, and a down ball right side, barely can get it, and it's in the right field.

1945
02:45:09,000 --> 02:45:13,000
Wynn turns and holds at first base.

1946
02:45:13,000 --> 02:45:16,000
Now, we told you that, barely was right on the line.

1947
02:45:16,000 --> 02:45:21,000
That was the routine out earlier in the game, but it trickled through for a base hit here in the ninth.

1948
02:45:21,000 --> 02:45:27,000
Jackson went the other way for Boston in the eighth inning, went two smashes to third,

1949
02:45:27,000 --> 02:45:30,000
and came out because Jackson was position there.

1950
02:45:30,000 --> 02:45:33,000
So, LaRoche created for a base hit off the bat of Liam.

1951
02:45:33,000 --> 02:45:37,000
Kim Wright comes up, he's over three with a loss.

1952
02:45:37,000 --> 02:45:48,000
Now, Boston has its best hitter, and they believe top home run at RBI producer at the plate, in the bottom of the ninth inning.

1953
02:45:48,000 --> 02:45:54,000
31,652 to play, and it's a sell-out when you consider their couple of thousand guests here.

1954
02:45:54,000 --> 02:46:00,000
Now, they've lost in that, and they've seen a great game, and all they can add for now is a win in the bottom of the ninth inning.

1955
02:46:00,000 --> 02:46:03,000
It's a 9-9 tie.

1956
02:46:03,000 --> 02:46:07,000
Lamaga face runner to pitch, Wright got a butt, takes a strike.

1957
02:46:07,000 --> 02:46:14,000
So, John Zimmer, chanting his big home run hitter to run around sacrifice,

1958
02:46:14,000 --> 02:46:17,000
but it might just as quickly take that butt off and let it swing away,

1959
02:46:17,000 --> 02:46:22,000
figuring that the Angels would give him a high fanfall against that and drive it out of here.

1960
02:46:22,000 --> 02:46:25,000
Jackson creeping in from third, barely holding on, let it burst.

1961
02:46:25,000 --> 02:46:28,000
The pitch he's swinging and fouls it away.

1962
02:46:28,000 --> 02:46:37,000
He got the high fanfall, but was a little late pulling the trigger.

1963
02:46:37,000 --> 02:46:41,000
Lynn at first base, the winning run, no one out, bottom of the ninth.

1964
02:46:41,000 --> 02:46:45,000
Nine runs, 11 hits for each side.

1965
02:46:45,000 --> 02:46:48,000
Infield looking for the double play.

1966
02:46:48,000 --> 02:46:51,000
Lynn has a bigger lead this time.

1967
02:46:51,000 --> 02:46:58,000
A roach to the plate, high, a back ball, 1-2.

1968
02:46:58,000 --> 02:47:05,000
That's over two perfect innings, getting the fat out of order in the seventh and the eighth.

1969
02:47:05,000 --> 02:47:07,000
And now the roach, working the ninth inning.

1970
02:47:07,000 --> 02:47:09,000
Lynn has created him with a ground ball single.

1971
02:47:09,000 --> 02:47:12,000
The 1-2 pitch, Lynn takes the just inside.

1972
02:47:12,000 --> 02:47:16,000
That's his swing, and the ball breaking sharply down and in, just off the corner.

1973
02:47:16,000 --> 02:47:19,000
2-2.

1974
02:47:19,000 --> 02:47:23,000
The first net, 6-4, again, brand-handed Jim Wright, 2-0, Boston.

1975
02:47:23,000 --> 02:47:31,000
In the second and final game of this brief set, 2-2 pitch, high ball, 3.

1976
02:47:31,000 --> 02:47:35,000
So the count is on from two strikes to 3-2.

1977
02:47:35,000 --> 02:47:40,000
We'll see if the Red Sox play a little run and a hit.

1978
02:47:40,000 --> 02:47:42,000
The roach kicking it to the rubber.

1979
02:47:42,000 --> 02:47:45,000
Now let's then get this time from Terry Humphrey.

1980
02:47:45,000 --> 02:47:48,000
Lynn leads away from first base.

1981
02:47:48,000 --> 02:47:49,000
The roach at the plate.

1982
02:47:49,000 --> 02:47:50,000
Here's the pitch.

1983
02:47:50,000 --> 02:47:56,000
High ball, 4.

1984
02:47:56,000 --> 02:47:59,000
Now the Red Sox, good net, the ball in the net.

1985
02:47:59,000 --> 02:48:04,000
Lynn gets the ground single, and Wright behind 0-2, watches for a straight ball.

1986
02:48:04,000 --> 02:48:08,000
And now the Red Sox have runners at first and second going out.

1987
02:48:08,000 --> 02:48:15,000
And Carl Yusremski fouls in the fifth, and George Scott can't go to hit him at order.

1988
02:48:15,000 --> 02:48:23,000
Gazz, who handles the match extremely well, gets with his third base, Gogetti, out to see if he's up there to box.

1989
02:48:23,000 --> 02:48:30,000
Gazz is rounded out three times and walks.

1990
02:48:30,000 --> 02:48:38,000
Now Boston, literally undefeatable at all, 22-4, with a great chance to win it here on the bottom of the ninth.

1991
02:48:38,000 --> 02:48:42,000
The roach gets the winner, Gazz wears it, takes it away, and top-side ball up.

1992
02:48:42,000 --> 02:48:48,000
Now the roach has that plate jumping on him.

1993
02:48:48,000 --> 02:48:52,000
Lynn, the winning run at second.

1994
02:48:52,000 --> 02:48:57,000
Wright just frosting over Gazz.

1995
02:48:57,000 --> 02:49:01,000
Yes, square to butt, he gave himself up immediately.

1996
02:49:01,000 --> 02:49:04,000
Swing, miss the iron, and take the strike, one-and-one.

1997
02:49:04,000 --> 02:49:08,000
Oh my, with Gazz increasing in from third and barely tied at first.

1998
02:49:08,000 --> 02:49:15,000
Yes, got a good breaking ball, but didn't go after it, one-and-one to count.

1999
02:49:15,000 --> 02:49:19,000
Habsfield straight away for Gazz, wind blowing out toward left.

2000
02:49:19,000 --> 02:49:23,000
Runners lead first and second going out, he's cleared the butt, butted toward third.

2001
02:49:23,000 --> 02:49:27,000
The roach gets a play at third, and he doesn't make it, and it went a three.

2002
02:49:27,000 --> 02:49:43,000
Oh my, Gazz and Legosi, the roach all around, and third base up by our Joe Franklin, he called him safe.

2003
02:49:43,000 --> 02:49:50,000
Legosi throws his hands in the air of disgust, but it was an excellent front by the veteran gethfifty.

2004
02:49:50,000 --> 02:49:52,000
The roach got only one play.

2005
02:49:52,000 --> 02:49:59,000
The ball field is going toward the third-base foul line, and so he was in position to throw the bird,

2006
02:49:59,000 --> 02:50:03,000
but they didn't get him, the umpire ruled safe, and you've got to give your sense he a bunch single.

2007
02:50:03,000 --> 02:50:05,000
That's how good he is.

2008
02:50:05,000 --> 02:50:10,000
Now trying to take some miracle-pinting by the roach, not to lose in the ninth inning.

2009
02:50:10,000 --> 02:50:14,000
Has Walshens, has the bases loaded, no one out.

2010
02:50:14,000 --> 02:50:21,000
The infield is in, the outfield is in, time is called, and Johnny Tuskey goes out to say something to Jim Wright.

2011
02:50:21,000 --> 02:50:34,000
Now to the fifth, the right-handed hitting catcher is fouled out, struck out, a deep out to center, and a ground out.

2012
02:50:34,000 --> 02:50:39,000
The infield, who have had the bases loaded four times at the end of an inning,

2013
02:50:39,000 --> 02:50:47,000
everybody will get that big blow, trying themselves now with Walshens, enjoying a bases loaded situation,

2014
02:50:47,000 --> 02:50:51,000
and no one out in the bottom of the ninth. La Roche is not going to use the wind-up.

2015
02:50:51,000 --> 02:50:55,000
Fifth, right-handed batter, the pitch, way outside, ball in.

2016
02:50:55,000 --> 02:51:01,000
La Roche, not close with that one.

2017
02:51:01,000 --> 02:51:05,000
The infield and the outfield, their players to the plate.

2018
02:51:05,000 --> 02:51:11,000
There's softball depth in the outfield, hoping he'll stop a line drive, apply ball,

2019
02:51:11,000 --> 02:51:17,000
and they're going to join the back of right-fly anyway. The pitch, outside, ball through.

2020
02:51:17,000 --> 02:51:21,000
Lynn, the winning run, is third, Wright the second, he has the first.

2021
02:51:21,000 --> 02:51:27,000
Angel-Tamil Ford, what they would like to see is that ground ball, home to first double play.

2022
02:51:27,000 --> 02:51:31,000
But La Roche has to throw a strike first.

2023
02:51:31,000 --> 02:51:35,000
Single by Lynn, a walk, and a bunch-single, below the nature's revulsion,

2024
02:51:35,000 --> 02:51:38,000
in the last of the ninth inning, a 9-9-9.

2025
02:51:38,000 --> 02:51:41,000
Let's get this night from Humphrey, the pitch, way to ground ball,

2026
02:51:41,000 --> 02:51:53,000
fifth, Boston, Hitchcock wins 10-9, and fifth, single, Pat Byrd.

2027
02:51:53,000 --> 02:51:58,000
One run, two hits, two errors, and three laps in the bottom of the ninth inning,

2028
02:51:58,000 --> 02:52:02,000
and Calvin Smith, lands a single between Jackson and a bag of Byrd,

2029
02:52:02,000 --> 02:52:07,000
and Boston wins again at home, 10-9 in a thrilling ballgame.

2030
02:52:07,000 --> 02:52:12,000
Here's now, I think the Red Sox, 10 runs, 13 hits, five errors,

2031
02:52:12,000 --> 02:52:15,000
seven men left on base for the Angels, nine runs, 11 hits, one error,

2032
02:52:15,000 --> 02:52:18,000
and 14 men left on base.

2033
02:52:18,000 --> 02:52:20,000
The winning pitcher, Bill Campbell, he's three and four.

2034
02:52:20,000 --> 02:52:44,000
The losing pitcher, Dave Lowe, five and three.
