00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:14,000
New York Yankees faced the Cleveland Indians at Cleveland Stadium for a Friday night game on June 24th, 1960.

3
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:19,000
The Yankees were managed by Casey Stengel and were battling the Orioles for first place in the American League.

4
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:26,000
The Yankees were looking to rebound from the disappointing 1959 season, which was only the second time in 11 years that they failed to reach the World Series.

5
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:31,000
Cleveland was having an impressive season as well, entering this game in third place under manager Joe Gordon.

6
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:39,000
The tribe had finished in second place in 1959 and were looking to make it back to the World Series for the first time since their 1954 championship.

7
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:59,000
This audio recording is from the New York Radio broadcast featuring announcers Mel Allen and Ken Coleman.

8
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:14,000
Coaching in third, Frank Luceri over at the plate is Ralph Mout.

9
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,000
Cleveland's municipal stadium right off the shores of Lake Erie.

10
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:28,000
And the sky doesn't look too good. The wind is blowing out towards right field.

11
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:35,000
Lights are on here at the stadium. Here's the first pitch of the ball game and it's over for a call strike.

12
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:42,000
Perry is a big boy. 6 feet 4 inches tall and 185 pounds.

13
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:47,000
A North Carolina boy living in Jamesville, North Carolina. Here's the wind up.

14
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,000
The kick. Best ball right down the middle. Strike two. Nothing in two.

15
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:58,000
Joe Gordon and his Indians realized that this is a must series for them.

16
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:07,000
For the Yankees to sweep the series, they'll be in rough shape. The two strike pitch. Low inside ball one.

17
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,000
On deck is extra low pitch.

18
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:17,000
And here's the pitch. It's in the ground. The second base and sample to his left up with it.

19
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Goes to Vic Power in time for the outs.

20
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:28,000
And boys, it's a pleasure watching that Vic Power around first base. He really dances.

21
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,000
One way here is Hexler Low Pair.

22
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:36,000
Hector batting 304 has two doubles, three triples, three homers and 11 runs batted in.

23
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,000
Hector has 11 hits and has led 43 times at back.

24
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:46,000
Hexler has 11 hits and has led 43 times at back.

25
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,000
Hexler has 11 hits and has led 43 times at back.

26
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Hexler has 11 hits and has led 43 times at back.

27
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,000
And has led 43 times at back.

28
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,000
Right hand hitter and a severe crouch.

29
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:08,000
Pair's pitch is over strike one call. On deck is Mickey Metles.

30
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,000
Cleveland has Frank Conner and left pier, Soltan Seller and Keenan Wright.

31
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:19,000
Phillip Sells, Semple and Power on the infield. Romano Casse and Jim Pair out on the mound.

32
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:24,000
The one strike pitch is a curved low outside ball 111.

33
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,000
Last year Pairy 112 and lost 10.

34
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:47,000
The one one pitch is a fastball just below the knees ball two, two and one.

35
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,000
Here's the two one delivery.

36
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:07,000
It's a check swing on the slow outside ball three, three and one.

37
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Hope that's a good way to go after the breaking pitch.

38
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,000
On this Western trip the Yankees have won eight loss two and five one.

39
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:20,000
And the Yankees have won six of the last seven and fifteen and are out of their last fifteen.

40
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:24,000
Yankees and Cleveland are three and three on the season.

41
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:32,000
Three one pitch, low ball four and there's the first base runner of the ball game.

42
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:38,000
Hexalo Pair draws the base on balls and that'll bring up Mickey Metles.

43
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:43,000
Mickey batting 286 that average is rising slowly but surely.

44
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:48,000
Seven doubles, four triples, sixteen, almost 34 runs valid in.

45
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,000
On deck Roger Marist.

46
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,000
Hexalo Pair leads off first.

47
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,000
Distraction to pick the net.

48
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:09,000
There's a swing and a miss strike one.

49
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:13,000
Mickey went after that high fast one, didn't get it.

50
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:23,000
Well if you get a ball up in the air it's really going to travel.

51
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:28,000
Fortunately the wind is not blowing down here but above the stadium it's blowing.

52
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,000
Fast ball in there, strike two calls.

53
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,000
Nothing in two on Mickey.

54
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,000
Good power holding first base against low pitch.

55
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:56,000
Now the stretch. Two strikes with high ball, one ball two strikes.

56
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,000
Hurry trying to keep that ball up on Mickey.

57
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:05,000
Early in the year Matt will have trouble hitting the high fast ball because of a dead knee.

58
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:11,000
And though it's still giving him trouble he's been laying off that pitch.

59
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,000
One ball two strikes one out.

60
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,000
No score on the top of the first inning.

61
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,000
There's a look over at Lopez leading off first.

62
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:24,000
The pitch is if high in the air a foul ball, this power moving over the wind is taking it.

63
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:31,000
Power moving back and he can't get it, it goes back into the stands and you should have seen the wind get a hold of that ball.

64
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:41,000
Once the base ball gets above the roof of the municipal stadium it takes off like a ping pong ball being blown around by the wind.

65
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,000
It is blowing hard.

66
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,000
It's going to make fly balls a little rough, the high flies anyway.

67
00:06:48,000 --> 00:07:05,000
One ball two strikes on Mickey.

68
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,000
Hurry, check the sign from the motto.

69
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,000
That's on the mound.

70
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:14,000
His pitch is if high in the air, there's a high pop fly.

71
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,000
Let's see how the wind takes this one.

72
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:22,000
There's plenty of piercoles coming in from center field and he has to dive back to make the catch.

73
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,000
And we told you about that wind.

74
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,000
Held and samples started after they gave up.

75
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:36,000
Piercoles came in from center, suddenly had a fierce sharply to his left and a long back about six feet to make the catch.

76
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,000
Oh you got to stay with those high flies.

77
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,000
Here's Roger Maris.

78
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,000
Maris batting 335.

79
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:49,000
He's been double, three triples, 20 home runs and 52 runs batted in.

80
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:58,000
When Roger was traded to New York he made the prediction that he'd hit at least 20 home runs and he's got them already.

81
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,000
Two outs, no score.

82
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,000
Here's a stretch to pitch to Maris.

83
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:25,000
He's going to strike one call.

84
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:34,000
He's getting hit again by 3rd. Best for the tie outside, one on one.

85
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:46,000
The Indians were kind of hoping for 50,000 fans or more tonight but unless it's a real slow crowd getting here they're not going to get near that total.

86
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:59,000
It's a nice crowd but this is up in the air to left field, Trancona moving over under it now and makes the catch for the 3rd out.

87
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:05,000
40 Yankees in the top of the first inning, no run, no hits, no Indian errors, one man left.

88
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,000
The score at the end of one half inning of play.

89
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,000
The Yankees, nothing and the Indians coming to bat.

90
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:22,000
You know sometimes the way your car performs can be downright embarrassing especially if it's been stalling frequently or idling rough or possibly doesn't have the get up and go you're accustomed to.

91
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:29,000
When you trouble could be a dirty carburetor, a condition that can affect any car old or new.

92
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:30,000
Here's how.

93
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:38,000
A golf fumes in my new particles of dirt can get by your air cleaner and build up deposits inside along the lower carburetor wall.

94
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:48,000
Even a small amount of these deposits can cause the throttle plate to see the wrong mixture of air and gasoline to your engine and you thus get rough performance and actual gasoline weight.

95
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:54,000
But a dirty carburetor is one embarrassment you can forget about if you use new Atlantic Imperial gasoline.

96
00:09:54,000 --> 00:10:00,000
To see Atlantic Imperial actually goes towards cleaning out the deposits in your carburetor as you drive.

97
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:05,000
What's more it keeps your carburetor clean and puts more pleasure back into driving.

98
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:12,000
So to end stalling rough idling and gasoline waste due to a dirty carburetor use Atlantic Imperial.

99
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,000
The gasoline that cleans your carburetor and keeps it clean.

100
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:31,000
The oil is clean.

101
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,000
They've thrown pierced oil out of the game or not.

102
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,000
Here comes Joe Gordon in red press.

103
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:42,000
Pierced oil was standing to the side of all place playing the bats and Jim quotes,

104
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:51,000
let loose with a pitch that got away from the catcher and then suddenly threw both bats out towards third base.

105
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:59,000
Ed Hurley now and Hank Shore are talking with Joe Gordon and Jimmy Pearsaw.

106
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:05,000
Hurley got the situation very well under control.

107
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:11,000
Pearsaw really got excited as everybody knows Jimmy is an excitable ball player and an exciting player to watch.

108
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,000
And he plays the game to the hills.

109
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:21,000
He gets excited maybe a little quicker than other ball players.

110
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:28,000
Joe Gordon with his hand on Pearsaw's shoulder listening to Ed Hurley.

111
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:34,000
I don't know whether Pearsaw is out of the game or not.

112
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,000
But Jimmy is looking towards the dugout.

113
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:42,000
He's getting his bats and it looks like he's still in the game.

114
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:46,000
He's going to the Ryzenbags.

115
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:55,000
We've got action right here at the beginning of the ball game and Pearsaw isn't even been to bats.

116
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:03,000
There are some pitches that don't like the next fitter to be standing near home playing watching them warm up so there's no rule against it.

117
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:11,000
And I'm sure Coach didn't throw it Pearsaw but the pitch went by Howard, rolled back to the wall and kicked back.

118
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:17,000
So it's home played and Pearsaw got a little excited and just threw both his bats to the left of the pitches.

119
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,000
Now they roll all the way to third base.

120
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:27,000
Clearly, Boyer was the most surprised ball player in the park when he saw the bats come sailing right at his feet.

121
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,000
Pearsaw isn't even the lead off man.

122
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:34,000
Johnny Semple, who is the lead off man, is in the bat as Vox now.

123
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:39,000
Well, we might have a little excitement here at Municipal Stadium before this ball game is over.

124
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:45,000
Semple's batting 264 with six doubles, one homer and nine runs batted in.

125
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:50,000
Jim Coates, first pitch to Semple, is a strike on the outside corner.

126
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:57,000
Coates is one eight and lost none and his one defeat in his big league career came at the hands of the Indians.

127
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:04,000
He is one and one, lifetime record against Cleveland, 14-1 lifetime record in the big league.

128
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:10,000
The curve is a strike on the outside corner and Johnny Semple turns around and starts shaking his head

129
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:15,000
and he is moaning that the pitch was low and he's arguing with Bob Stewart.

130
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:19,000
We're having fireworks before the ball game is over here.

131
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:25,000
And they're going to have another one of those fireworks that plays after the game and here comes Jojo White.

132
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:30,000
Down from third base is trying to calm Johnny Semple.

133
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,000
Bob Stewart, we've got a dandy going tonight.

134
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:39,000
Both clubs realizing that this is a crucial series.

135
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:44,000
Casey Stengel standing on the steps of the Yankee dugout.

136
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:48,000
All right, nothing into the count on Semple. Here's the wind-up.

137
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,000
Best ball line, the base hit the right center field.

138
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:56,000
Moving over there, Semple around first and all done.

139
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:04,000
Well, here comes Jimmy Perestal.

140
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:17,000
Well, I tell you, this Perestal can get a crowd up and on.

141
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:25,000
He stands close to the plate. Semple got mad at a strike ball by the umpire and probably got a base hit.

142
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:29,000
And Perestal's mad already. Jimmy's hitting 303. Here's the stretch.

143
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:35,000
The pitch, curve, high inside ball one. Look at Perestal's stare at Big Jim Coast.

144
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:44,000
No score, we're in the bottom of the first inning. Jim Coast has won 12 straight games over two years span.

145
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:50,000
Four and 59 in eighth this season.

146
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:55,000
And Hadley holding first base against Johnny Semple.

147
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,000
The stretch by Coast.

148
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:04,000
Pitch to Perestal is hit in the air to a short right center field. Marist coming in and makes the catch.

149
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:11,000
And it's won away. Perestal didn't hit that ball hard, but the wind took it out.

150
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:17,000
That'll bring up Harvey Keen, who has brought his average over the 300 mark.

151
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:24,000
He's at 308. 9 doubles, 3 homers, 25 runs batted in.

152
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:30,000
Harvey had 3 for 3 in yesterday's ball game against the center.

153
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:36,000
And he is the leading Indian hitter as of the moment.

154
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:42,000
The back team came out with a statement in the paper today saying he's after the league batting title again.

155
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:46,000
So he's serious. All right, one away, no score. Temper leaves off first.

156
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:50,000
The stretch. Pitch to Kroon is hit on the ground to Boyer up on it.

157
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:55,000
Over to Richardson for one. Back to first. Double play.

158
00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:00,000
As Jim Coast came in with a change up, curve ball and had Harvey Keen off balance.

159
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:07,000
Around the horn from third to second or first. Yankees come up with their 64th double play of the year.

160
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:14,000
And four Cleveland in the bottom of the first no runs, one hit. No Yankee errors, nobody left.

161
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:19,000
The score at the end of one full inning. The Yankees, nothing. And the Indians, nothing.

162
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:25,000
Yankees play here again tomorrow afternoon and a big double header on Sunday.

163
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:31,000
And then they meet the Brooklyn Los Angeles Dodgers. They can't eat from saying Brooklyn.

164
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:37,000
The Los Angeles Dodgers Monday night in a charity benefit stand-lot game at Yankee Stadium.

165
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:42,000
Coming up to bat for the Yankees here on the top of the second is Kent Hadley.

166
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:49,000
Hadley's batting 269, has three homers and seven runs batted in.

167
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:56,000
Got two of those homers in one game over at Detroit, filling in for the injured Bill Scower.

168
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:01,000
The Moose was just starting to pound that ball again when he sprained his wrist, batting 304.

169
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:06,000
Chris Hitsahadley is low inside ball one.

170
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:22,000
On deck Elston Holler.

171
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:38,000
Wind up by Perry and the pitch is on the inside corner, strike one, one, one.

172
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:43,000
Here's the wind up by the big right hander. His pitch is fouled down the snow.

173
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:50,000
It's fair ball, power up with a throw to Perry covering inside for the out.

174
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,000
Hadley swung, he was back on his heels and didn't start right away.

175
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:58,000
It appeared to be a fouled ball, but Vick Power had a back up at first base to make the play

176
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,000
and he really fired the Perry covering for the out.

177
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:05,000
One away, here's Elston Hard.

178
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:10,000
Power batting 258.

179
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:27,000
Seven doubles, three triples, five homers and 26 runs batted in.

180
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:34,000
Jim Perry swings into the wind up. His first pitch to Howard is a curve low outside ball one.

181
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:40,000
Have the commissioners right hand man. It's a guest tonight. Thanks, local.

182
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,000
What brings you to Cleveland tonight?

183
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,000
For the all star vote.

184
00:18:46,000 --> 00:19:01,000
The one nothing pitch is a little bit outside ball two, two and nothing.

185
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:06,000
On deck leader sports. Outfield deep straight away on Howard.

186
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:12,000
Here's a two nothing pitch. The strike on the outside corner Howard had started to swing and check this swing,

187
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:17,000
but the pitch must have nicked the corner. Bob Stewart held up that big right hand.

188
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:23,000
Two and one on Elie.

189
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,000
Wind blowing out hard towards right field.

190
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:35,000
Fastball low outside ball three, three and one.

191
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:43,000
One out, nobody on here in the top of the sixth.

192
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,000
Three one pitch is hit on the ground towards second base.

193
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:55,000
Johnny Temple coming in fast up with a flip to Howard. Howard is retired.

194
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:59,000
That big power can really move around at first base.

195
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:09,000
Here's Cleetus Boyle batting 250, six doubles, two homers, 11 runs batted in.

196
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:13,000
Two out here in the top of the second inning.

197
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:21,000
A big series for both teams, the Indians and the Yankees.

198
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:27,000
Leaving just two games behind New York.

199
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:35,000
Terry swings into the wind up. The pitch to Boyle is on the inside corner strike one call.

200
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:44,000
Boyle looks back at Bob Stewart.

201
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:50,000
Here's the one strike delivery. Sidearm curve over the outside corner strike two.

202
00:20:50,000 --> 00:21:03,000
The player has started a swing at that check to swing but the ball has bought of a plate on Deck Bobby Richardson.

203
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,000
Ready now for the two strike delivery.

204
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:15,000
He started a swing when almost all the way around and held up. The pitch was high and inside.

205
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:29,000
One ball one. Romano the catcher thought he had gone far enough to round. I have a call of strikes.

206
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:36,000
One ball two strike pitch. Foul back against the screen.

207
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:49,000
Outholds at one ball two strikes.

208
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:58,000
Terry into the wind up. Curve ball is high ball two. Terry and Romano have started to walk off the field.

209
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:09,000
Now waiting to hear the last word from the umpire before you move. Two balls two strikes two outs nobody on top of the second no score.

210
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:14,000
The pitch is strike three call. That one had the outside corner.

211
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:20,000
Terry's first strike out and for the Yankees they get down one two three on the top of the second nothing across.

212
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:25,000
The score at the end of an inning and a half the Yankees nothing and the Indians nothing.

213
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,000
Now at a traffic light you can often tell if your car isn't performing up to par.

214
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:34,000
Maybe it stalls frequently or idles rough or possibly doesn't have any pick up when the light changes.

215
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:40,000
Now this could mean a dirty carburetor something that can happen to any car old or new.

216
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:47,000
You see exhaust fumes and other air contaminants get by your air cleaner and build up as deposits inside the carburetor of your car.

217
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:52,000
And these troublesome deposits can cause an improper mixture of air and gasoline.

218
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:56,000
The result is rough performance and actual gasoline waste.

219
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:02,000
But thanks to new Atlantic Imperial gasoline you now can keep your carburetor clean without even erasing the hood.

220
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:10,000
Atlantic Imperial cleans your carburetor as you drive doing a complete job in just a few thousand miles.

221
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:16,000
So to end stalling rough idling and gasoline waste due to a dirty carburetor use Atlantic Imperial.

222
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:22,000
It's the gasoline that cleans your carburetor and keeps it clean.

223
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:38,000
Hitting in the cleanup spot for Cleveland here on the bottom of the second is Cedro Francona.

224
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:54,000
Francona has zipped below 300 batting 291. Left hand header has 10 doubles. Two triples, two homers and 29 runs batted in.

225
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:58,000
No score on the bottom of the second inning.

226
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:10,000
Jim Colts, end of the windup, has pitched to Francona, is high ball one.

227
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:18,000
Jojo White coaching at third and Red Crest over at first for the Indians.

228
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:30,000
One nothing pitch, outside ball two, two nothing.

229
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,000
Francona 6 feet tall, 185 pounds.

230
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:40,000
And somebody is getting on the plate on fire Bob Stewart from the bench.

231
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:52,000
The Cleveland bench that is and time is called while he looks in and tells him to behave or to put out.

232
00:24:52,000 --> 00:25:10,000
Two balls, no strikes on Francona. The windup, the pitch is high ball three, three nothing.

233
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:30,000
On deck is Vic Pao. Three nothing pitch, strike ball, fast ball about Velhoy, three and one.

234
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:40,000
Colts with a big slow easy windup, kicks, fast ball, his strike two call.

235
00:25:40,000 --> 00:26:02,000
He's getting off here in the bottom of the second of his ball or ball game. Francona digging into the plate.

236
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:12,000
Here it is, and it's low for ball four. He tried to curve him on a three two pitch and miss low inside.

237
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:16,000
First walk given up by Colts and here's Vic Pao.

238
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:24,000
Pao has been in his club yesterday, the first time up he got his first hit and 26 times at best.

239
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:42,000
He has dropped a 291, ten doubles, two trebles, two homers and 29 runs battered in.

240
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:57,000
He's got a hit and run man, and Francona leads off first to stretch my coach.

241
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:19,000
Go to first base and Francona is back.

242
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:24,000
Here's a stretch, pitch to power, curve ball hit, high in the air to short left field.

243
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,000
Low pass didn't see it right away, Krubeck moving back and makes the catch.

244
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,000
Hex to Low pass lost that ball in left field.

245
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:36,000
Remember it's still quite light here at Cleveland's municipal stadium, though the lights are on.

246
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:40,000
This is the time of the night when high fly balls are a little tough to see off the bat.

247
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:59,000
But Krubeck stayed with it and made the catch backing up. One away here's Johnny Romano.

248
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:09,000
Romano batting 274, two doubles, a trebles, six homers and 23 runs battered in.

249
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:16,000
Francona still at first, here's a stretch, pitch to Romano, curve ball over, strike one call.

250
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:36,000
Nothing nothing here in the bottom of the second with one out.

251
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,000
Here's a stretch by coach, checker to runner at first.

252
00:28:39,000 --> 00:29:05,000
Fastball is fouled back on the screen, nothing in two.

253
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:27,000
Nothing in two to count, Hadley holding first against Francona, the pitch high inside ball one.

254
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:46,000
On deck is what he held.

255
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:56,000
Here's a stretch by coach, pitch is fouled out of play and it almost got low effort.

256
00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:06,000
Right between Lewette, Flatten, Jim Ogle, two of the newspaper men I travel with the Yankees.

257
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:12,000
They didn't try to get it, they just tried to get out of the way.

258
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:22,000
One ball, two strikes and one out.

259
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:28,000
Again post-set, pitch, curve ball, flung in a miss strike three.

260
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:37,000
Big overhand curve ball by Jim, he scores this first strike out of the ball game and here's what he held.

261
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:49,000
Woody batting just 242, leaves the Indians in RBI, he has 37, also has seven doubles, one triple and 12 home runs.

262
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:54,000
Jimmy Pearce over 35 on the I second on the team.

263
00:30:54,000 --> 00:31:01,000
Francona will open the ending with a walk, is still at first base with school away, no score at the bottom of the second.

264
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:13,000
Coach's pitch is high inside ball one.

265
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:22,000
Bobber Phillips on deck.

266
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,000
Here's the stretch.

267
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,000
Low curve is lying, off-boy is going to left field at the base hit.

268
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:35,000
Francona trying for third, Lopez is still in there but not in time.

269
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:44,000
Nido Francona with heads up base running, went from first to third on a single short left field as Woody held, wrapped a hotline drive down to third,

270
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:51,000
boy I got his glove on, it slowed it down but couldn't hold onto it, it goes to the base hit.

271
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:58,000
The second hit off-coach and the Indians have run as a first and third with two out in the battle, Bobber Phillips.

272
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:03,000
Phillips batting 218, six doubles, two home runs, 12 runs, batted in.

273
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:16,000
No score here in the bottom of the second.

274
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:23,000
Here's the score, had a kind of dive to his left to get a glove on that ball.

275
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,000
Alright here's the stretch.

276
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:34,000
Pitch to Phillips, fouled back on the screen strike one, Bobber went after a high curve ball.

277
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:40,000
Time is called by Elstin Howard as he goes out to the mound.

278
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:49,000
Francona never stopped running as he rounded second and throw by Lopez which was a good throw, just missed getting this slide in Tito.

279
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:55,000
Kubeck gave a good fake as though to cut off the ball and that held Woody held at first base.

280
00:32:55,000 --> 00:33:01,000
El was starting to go and he saw Kubeck reach for it and to hustle back to first and Tony let the ball go by him.

281
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,000
One strike on Phillips, two out.

282
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:29,000
One ball high inside, ball one, one on one.

283
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:34,000
Check the sign from Howard, here's the stretch.

284
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:38,000
Nice play, throws the first in, time to get Phillips.

285
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:47,000
Boy there was a pretty play by Cleetus Boyer and for Cleveland in the bottom of the second, no runs, one base hit.

286
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:51,000
No Yankee errors, two men left the score at the end of two full innings.

287
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:55,000
The Yankee is nothing, the Indians nothing and we pause for station identification.

288
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:59,000
1460 on the radio dial, WOKO, Albany, New York.

289
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,000
Bobby Richardson stepping into the batter's box.

290
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:07,000
Bobby batting 229, six doubles, one homer and ten runs batted in.

291
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:15,000
Perry's pitches a side on the line to left field, Francona digging to his right and makes the catch of a hard headline drive.

292
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:23,000
Richardson got good wood on that side on curveball but Francona got a good jump with the crack of the bat, made a running catch in left field.

293
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:31,000
One away, brings up Jim Coates, who is suddenly blossomed out as a hitting pitcher.

294
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:35,000
9 to 27, two doubles, three runs batted in, batting 333.

295
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:42,000
Pitch to Coates is swung and a missed strike one, it was an overhand curveball, low on outside.

296
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:46,000
Coates is really taking a good cut at the ball.

297
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:51,000
Side on curve, hit right back to the pitcher, one hop up with a throw to Vic Power for the out.

298
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:59,000
Vic hasn't touched first yet, Jim Coates is standing halfway there and then Power steps on a bag.

299
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:07,000
Vic Power wanted Jim Coates to run, wanted him to exert himself a little bit, Coates had stopped halfway down the line.

300
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:12,000
Power caught the ball and stood alongside a first base, waiting for Coates to make his move.

301
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:18,000
Coates started towards first and Vic finally stepped on the bag.

302
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:28,000
Cut the fire a little bit to the old Power, here's Tony Kubeck who bounced out to second base his first time at bat.

303
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:43,000
Two-hour nobody on the pitch to Kubeck, it's over strike one-claw.

304
00:35:43,000 --> 00:36:02,000
The one strike delivery is hit deep to right field, that ball's way back there and Harvey Keane watches it go over the fence for homerun.

305
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:09,000
That not only is the first base hit off Jim Perry but the first run of the ball game as Kubeck hit a high fastball up in that wind.

306
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:14,000
And it just carried the ball right on over the right field fence.

307
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,000
The Yankees lead one and nothing.

308
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:22,000
Corp Kubeck is sixth home of the year and his 27th run batted in.

309
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:31,000
The Yankees lead one and nothing.

310
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:39,000
That gives Kubeck as many home runs as he had all last year, six home runs.

311
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:44,000
And this is his first home against Cleveland pitching.

312
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:50,000
Heck the Lopez up, takes a curve high and inside.

313
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:55,000
Actually I missed the pitch while I was talking about Kubeck's homer, it's two and nothing on Lopez.

314
00:36:55,000 --> 00:37:03,000
Three nothing pitch, curve inside ball three.

315
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:08,000
Not unusual that a home run shakes up a pitcher.

316
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:13,000
There's something to it.

317
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,000
Three nothing pitch.

318
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:34,000
And this is the second time Lopez walks in the ball game, the only two walks given up by Perry and his Mickey Matles who fly to Short Centerfield in the first inning.

319
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,000
Pick power holding Lopez on.

320
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:41,000
Two out, the Yankees lead one nothing here in the top of the fair.

321
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:48,000
The games between the Indian and Yankees have been very close games.

322
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:49,000
Here's a stretch.

323
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:57,000
Pitch for Mickey is high ball one on Deck Roger Mariff.

324
00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:02,000
Perry stretches, Lopez leads the Oxford.

325
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:14,000
Pitch is fouled back in the upper deck out of play, one on one.

326
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:20,000
Bobby Keene deep in right, Pierceville deep in center and Francona deep in left center.

327
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:27,000
One one pitch is high outside ball two, two and one on Mickey.

328
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:33,000
Both Matles and Mariff have had a tremendous month of June.

329
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:43,000
Mickey has a three sixty four average and Mariff a three fifty two average and Matles did ten homers in the month of June and Mariff nine.

330
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,000
Two and one to count.

331
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:56,000
The pitch to Matles swung it and this strike two, he went after that high fast ball again, had a good cut but got underneath the pitch.

332
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,000
Two balls, two strikes, two outs.

333
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:02,000
The two two delivery is high ball three and it's a full count on Mickey.

334
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:09,000
Three and two with two out Lopez will go with the pitch.

335
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,000
Alright here's a stretch by Perry.

336
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:20,000
There goes Lopez, the pitch is high ball four and Matles walks.

337
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:31,000
Four Matles, his fifty six base on balls of the year and here's Roger Mariff who applied to left field in the first inning.

338
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:35,000
That's the third walk given up by Jim Perry.

339
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,000
Runners now at first and second with two outs.

340
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:42,000
The Yankees lead one nothing, we're on the top of the third.

341
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:54,000
Alright Perry's strike. Pitch to Mariff is fouled back in the upper deck strike one.

342
00:39:54,000 --> 00:40:05,000
Ken Hadley swinging the big weighted bat on deck.

343
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,000
Matles leading off first, Lopez off second.

344
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:11,000
Here's the stretch.

345
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:28,000
The pitch is high outside ball one one and one.

346
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:34,000
One ball, one strike, two outs.

347
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,000
Perry looks back at Lopez.

348
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:45,000
Pitch is outside ball two, two and one. Romano holding the ball in the glove over the outside corner.

349
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,000
Catches full left ball pretty well.

350
00:40:48,000 --> 00:41:01,000
Move it quickly hoping to pull the umpire but they're hard to pull.

351
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:07,000
All this action with two outs. First two men Richardson and coach one outs.

352
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:17,000
Kubeck Homed, low-present Matle walks. Two one count on Roger Mariff.

353
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:27,000
Pitch, curve swung it and missed strike two that was a bad high curve ball one of the few we've seen Mariff go after.

354
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:43,000
One two to count, two out and two on.

355
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:47,000
Here's the stretch by Perry.

356
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:51,000
Pitch outside ball three and again Romano holds the glove there.

357
00:41:51,000 --> 00:42:02,000
Full count and we have now had three full counts in a row. Lopez, Matle and now Mariff.

358
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:09,000
Three and two on Mariff, two outs. Lopez is second, Matle at first ready to run.

359
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:14,000
There they go. The pitch is high outside gets away from Romano but not too far.

360
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:25,000
And three walks in a row by Jim Perry as the base is loaded with two out and a batter Kent Hadley who bounced out to first base in the second inning.

361
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:30,000
Alright Perry pitching with his full wind up. Here's the wind up. The pitch is a curve popped in the air to the left side.

362
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:36,000
Bob Phillips is under it in fair territory and makes the catch for the third out.

363
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:46,000
Kent Hadley went after the first pitch after Perry had walked three men in a row and popped up the third base for the Yankees in the top of the third one run on one hit.

364
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:52,000
Two back homers, no Cleveland errors and three men left on base to score at the end of two and a half inning.

365
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:55,000
The Yankees won and the Indians nothing.

366
00:42:55,000 --> 00:43:01,000
Perry batting 281 is nine for 32. One double, two runs batted in.

367
00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:11,000
Perry is a switch hitter and he's batting left handed against Jim Coast.

368
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:19,000
Jim Perry leading off here in the bottom of the third inning on deck at the top of the Cleveland batting order Johnny Tempo.

369
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:32,000
Fish hit to left field, Hexalopez moving back under it and makes the catch and every time a ball is hit out to left field in the early stage of the game,

370
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:41,000
Tony Kubek waves his arms and tries to signal and helps Hexalopez because as we told you in the early innings of a night game at this time of the year,

371
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,000
it's hard to pick up the ball off the bat.

372
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:50,000
Here's Johnny Tempo who got so mad at a cold strike in the first inning that he promptly singled on the next pitch to right center field.

373
00:43:50,000 --> 00:44:00,000
Boy, he was hard to play down by a box to it and the guy on deck next, Jimmy Pearce all almost started a mild riot when he threw his bat out towards pitch of Jim Coast.

374
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:06,000
I'll tell you about that when Pearce all gets up to the plate. Here's the pitch to Tempo, exchange of curve, pop to right field,

375
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:15,000
Roger Maris moving under it and making the catch. That's true way and here's Jimmy Pearce all who's flying to right in the first inning.

376
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:29,000
Pearce all was standing alongside of home plate watching Coast warm up with Johnny Tempo standing to the left of home plate and suddenly Coast's pitch got away from Howard and sailed a little close to Pearce all, Pearce all,

377
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:42,000
figuring that Coast was throwing at him, just wound up and threw both his bat towards the pitch of box. They landed up out of third base and the umpires and Joe Gordon had to come in and restrain Jimmy Pearce all.

378
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:54,000
Alright, two out and nobody on. The pitch to Pearce all. Pearce will hit high in the air to right center field. Maris moving back, back and makes the catch.

379
00:44:54,000 --> 00:45:04,000
And so for Cleveland in the bottom of the third, they're retired, one, two, three, nothing across the score at the end of three, Paul Innings.

380
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:12,000
The Yankees won and the Indians nothing. And right now let's pause for station identification.

381
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:20,000
1460 on the radio dial, quality modern radio, WOKO, Albany, New York, five minutes before nine.

382
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:28,000
Here is Elston Howard leading off. The Yankees in the top of the fourth inning. Howard bounced out to second base his first time at bat.

383
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:34,000
Winder by the big right hander. Fast forward line right through the middle, boy. That almost took Perry's cap off out to center field.

384
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:40,000
A solid single by Elston Howard right through the middle.

385
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:47,000
And that's only the second base hit off, Perry. Both teams now with two base hits. The Yankees leading one, nothing.

386
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:54,000
Brings up Cletus Boyle who was called out on strikes in the second inning.

387
00:45:54,000 --> 00:46:05,000
Elston Howard, by the way, is the leading hitter against Cleveland pitching this year. That gives him nine for 20.

388
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:19,000
Howard leading off first. Pitch is hit on the ground right back to the pitch. He throws the hell for one. Back to first, double play.

389
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:25,000
For the Indians, they're a 60 second double play of the year. And that was his prettiest time play you'd want to see.

390
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:31,000
As the ball was hit back to the pitcher, he led Woody Held to the bag, threw the ball over the bag with Held coming over from short.

391
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:39,000
Woody caught it and led Vic Power coming to first base. And everything was done perfectly that time.

392
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:45,000
Executed very well. A double play. Two out here's Bobby Richardson. Bobby's blind to left field in the third inning.

393
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:49,000
Two out, nobody on.

394
00:46:49,000 --> 00:47:05,000
The curve is outside, ball one. One nothing pitches. Lines are right field at base hit.

395
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:11,000
Coming up with a ball Harvey Keene and Richardson. Lines are single or right field.

396
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:19,000
So all three men who are hitting Cleveland pitching the best this year have all come up with base hits.

397
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:23,000
Bobby Richardson who came into the game, 6 for 20 with a 300 average against Cleveland pitching.

398
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:27,000
Tony Kubeck who came in with an 8 for 25 average for 320 pitching.

399
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:35,000
And Elston Howard who had 8 for 18 batting 4-44 have the three base hits against Paris.

400
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:43,000
Here's Jim Koch who hit back to the box in the third inning.

401
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Two out. Yankees did all their damage in the third inning with two out. The homer by Kubeck and three walks.

402
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:59,000
Coach hit one deep to the right center field, way back there and Piso makes a one-heel catch. He dropped it.

403
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:07,000
He got to the ball and then dropped it. Richardson scores. Jimmy Piso was playing shallow.

404
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:15,000
It's a base hit, a long double, the right center field by Jim Koch. Piso took off on a gallop.

405
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:21,000
Caught up to the ball and got his glove on it but brushed against the fence and then dropped the ball and his hat.

406
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:27,000
It rolled away from him and the Yankees lead two to nothing. Again with two out.

407
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:41,000
The Yankees have gotten to Jim Peres. As Jim Koch comes up with his third double of the year and his fourth run battered in and he is really pounding that ball.

408
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:45,000
You don't usually see Piso drop a ball when he gets his glove on it.

409
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:49,000
One of the catch he made in the Yankee stadium last time Indians were in town.

410
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:53,000
All right, here's Kubeck who bounced the second in home at the pitch for Tony.

411
00:48:53,000 --> 00:49:00,000
The serve low ball one. The Yankees two, the Indians nothing in the top of the fourth.

412
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:16,000
The stretch and the pitch has occurred. Pop high to right field down the line. That one could go and it's going in the stands.

413
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:25,000
A home run for Kubeck. Holy cow. That's Kubeck.

414
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:36,000
Caught all of a low inside serve ball and the Yankees now leads four to nothing and all the damage your carry has come after two were out.

415
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:48,000
As Kubeck gets his second home run of the game, his seventh of the year and with three RBI's tonight that gets him 29 runs battered in on the year.

416
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:51,000
Brings up like the Lopez who's been up twice and walks twice.

417
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:55,000
First is hit high in the air to straight away center field. Way back there. Way back.

418
00:49:55,000 --> 00:50:04,000
Piso going back and makes the catch just in front of the center field fence.

419
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:09,000
The ball to win took that one almost over the fence for the Yankees.

420
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:17,000
In the top of the fourth three runs on four base hits. No Indian errors and nobody left the score at the end of three and a half.

421
00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:20,000
The Yankees four Cleveland nothing.

422
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:26,000
Avi Keene who hit into a double play in the first inning leading off here in the bottom of the fourth for the Indians.

423
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:30,000
The Yankees four Cleveland nothing.

424
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:37,000
The Yankees continue to get runs for Jim Koch. They had scored 84 runs in the ten previous games in which Koch had started.

425
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:40,000
They've already got four so that gives them 88.

426
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:47,000
88 runs and 11 starts. Boy that's a lot of runs.

427
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,000
Alright here's the first pitch to Keene.

428
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:57,000
It's hit to deep right center. Marist moving back and Mattle over and Marist makes the catch.

429
00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:00,000
Keene got good wood on that ball. Didn't quite get it high enough.

430
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:25,000
One away here's Tito Francona. Francona walked in the second inning.

431
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:27,000
Here's the first pitch to Tito.

432
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:34,000
Bird ball lying through the middle of base hit to center fair.

433
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:41,000
Mattle bluffs the throw to first base as Francona gets the third base hit off Jim Koch.

434
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:49,000
And it brings up Vic Power who pops to the shortstop in the second inning.

435
00:51:49,000 --> 00:52:01,000
Here's the Yankees lead here on the top of the fourth. Hadley holding first against Francona.

436
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:05,000
Coach sets pitches. Hopped in the air straight away center fair.

437
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:11,000
Mickey Mattle hardly has to move under it and makes the catch.

438
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:31,000
And it's two-way. The battered Johnny Romano who struck out in the second inning.

439
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:41,000
Pitch to Romano high inside ball one. Johnny has six homers this year and 23 runs about it.

440
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:51,000
The one nothing pitch. High inside ball two two enough.

441
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:57,000
Two balls no strike. Here's the stretch by the big right hander.

442
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:08,000
He is low outside ball three. Three nothing.

443
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:11,000
Three balls no strike throughout.

444
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:16,000
The curve is high inside and it's ball four.

445
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:25,000
That brings up Woody Held.

446
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:31,000
The single of left field in the second inning.

447
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:37,000
Leads the Indians in homers with 12 and RBI's with 37.

448
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:41,000
Runners lead off first and second. Pitch to Held.

449
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:45,000
Power look out he threw the bat and the ball came shooting back in the upper deck.

450
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:51,000
The bat went right into the Yankee dugout and Casey Seckl makes believe he's mad and gets up on top of the steps.

451
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:55,000
Woody Held slung at that space. It was hard to watch both things.

452
00:53:55,000 --> 00:54:03,000
The bat flew all the way into the Yankee dugout and that's a long ways and the ball came just over our heads here in the upper deck.

453
00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:11,000
One strike on Woody. Again coach goes into the stretch position.

454
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:17,000
Low curve line of center field. Mattle coming on fast. Makes the running catch.

455
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:22,000
Woody Held sent a line drive into short center field.

456
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:26,000
Mattle got a good jump on it. Four Cleveland in the bottom of the fourth no run.

457
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:31,000
One hit. No Yankee errors. Two men left to score at the end of fourth inning.

458
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:38,000
The Yankee's four runs. Five hits no errors. The Indians no runs. Three hits and no errors.

459
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:46,000
While they're changing positions on the diamond, I'd like to mention right now that the second half of this game is being brought to you by the Chris Brefresher Valentine Bear.

460
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:53,000
You know Valentine's a light bear with two lager flavor and that's what makes it the Chris Brefresher.

461
00:54:53,000 --> 00:55:02,000
Well we got a new pitcher coming in for Cleveland. Bobby Locke who has been out there loosening up is taking over for Jim Perry.

462
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:10,000
So Bobby Locke comes on making his sixth appearance of the year. He's one one and lost none.

463
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:16,000
He's picked 21 in the third inning. He's given up 18 hits. Six runs. Five of them earned.

464
00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:19,000
Two points. One one earned run average.

465
00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:30,000
Locke 10 struck out six. Given up one homer. Locke will be facing Mattle, Maris and Hadley here in the top of the fifth inning with the Yankees leading four to nothing.

466
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:34,000
Mickey flying to center and walk.

467
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:43,000
Pitch is popped in the air and back of the plate. Romano throws the mask away and makes the catch 40 yards.

468
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:56,000
And since many men also got hit in the mouth with a mask thrown by Elf and Howard going after a foul board, you can see the umpires and the batters moving out of the range when the catcher starts to throw that mask.

469
00:55:56,000 --> 00:56:01,000
Here's Roger Maris flying to left and walk. One out, nobody on.

470
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:05,000
Locke fits the Maris high outside ball one.

471
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:24,000
One nothing delivery. He's hit on the ground in the first base. Vic power up with a flip to lock covering for the outs.

472
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:31,000
That's two way and it brings up Kent Hadley.

473
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:41,000
Hadley bounce to first base and popped up to the third baseman.

474
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:59,000
Pitch to Hadley is fouled back of the plate strike one. Two out, nobody on.

475
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:07,000
Fastball high outside one on one.

476
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:20,000
Here's a pitch to Hadley. He swings and has a home run board and he hit that one.

477
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:25,000
He caught all of the high fastball and drilled it deep into the decent right field.

478
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:32,000
That Hadley has got good power and again with two outs.

479
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:36,000
The Yankees scored, they scored all their runs after two were outs.

480
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:40,000
And they now take a five to nothing lead over Cleveland.

481
00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:43,000
Boy, Hadley really pounded that ball.

482
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:48,000
It was hit, Harvey changes, turned around and watched him go way back in the decent right field.

483
00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:51,000
Here's Elf and Howard bounce to second and single.

484
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:56,000
Fastball fouled back on the screen, strike one.

485
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:12,000
One strike pitch is lined to base hit to left center field for Howard.

486
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:32,000
Faso coming in fast up with the ball and Howard's on with his second base hit.

487
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:38,000
That's the seventh Yankee hit of the ball game and Johnny Temple comes in to talk to Bobby Locke.

488
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:40,000
Howard is at first.

489
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:49,000
The batter is Peter Boyle who was called out on strike and then hit into a double play.

490
00:58:49,000 --> 00:59:08,000
Here's a stretch to pitch to Boyle, his low ball one.

491
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:10,000
Here's a stretch.

492
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:15,000
Pitch is up in the air, the third baseman, Bobba Phillips, moving in foul territory.

493
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:19,000
Look at the wind take that back and he dropped the ball.

494
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:24,000
He dropped the ball, you should have seen that wind took that ball back at least 15 feet.

495
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:31,000
He was way in foul territory and ended up about 10 feet in fair territory and Phillip must have taken his eye off the ball

496
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:35,000
because he had a lunge to his left and it kicked off the heel of his glove.

497
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:38,000
That's an error charged to Bobba Phillips.

498
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:40,000
Howard was running all the way, ended up at third.

499
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:45,000
The clearest boyle was watching the ball a little too much and ends up at first base.

500
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:52,000
There's the first error of the ball game and here's Bobby Richardson, the line to left and single to right.

501
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:56,000
One is at first and third, two are.

502
00:59:56,000 --> 01:00:01,000
The stretch and the pitch to Bobby is popped in the air to short right field, it's going to be trouble.

503
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:08,000
And Sepple can't get it but it kicked foul. Johnny Sepple, Dick Farr and Harvey Keane couldn't catch up to that ball

504
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:13,000
but it landed foul by about two feet.

505
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:21,000
Sepple limping back to second base, he's been playing with a badly bruised ankle.

506
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:24,000
One strike on Bobby Richardson.

507
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:42,000
The Yankees leading five to nothing here in the top of the fifth.

508
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:44,000
The stretch by lock.

509
01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:47,000
The one strike pitch is hit in the ground at short.

510
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:52,000
Hell, let's do Sepple covering to retire Boyle.

511
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:57,000
Four of the Yankees in the top of the fifth, one run on a homer by Kent Hadley.

512
01:00:57,000 --> 01:01:04,000
There were two bases in the inning, one Cleveland era, two men left to score at the end of four and a half innings.

513
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:12,000
The Yankees five in the Indians, nothing.

514
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:26,000
Oh, you be crisp on fear but the fight's a real life. When true larger fighters, the fight's only right.

515
01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:33,000
Rivalry golden, crystal clear, red, green, red, red.

516
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:50,000
Bow to time, bow to time, fear.

517
01:01:50,000 --> 01:02:10,000
Oh, you be crisp on fear, say get to bow to time, say get to bow to time, get to ice cold bow to time, fear.

518
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:18,000
In the bottom of the fifth inning, Bob Phillips will be leading off.

519
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:22,000
Bob will bounce out to a third base in the second inning his first time at bat.

520
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:24,000
Yankees lead five-nothing.

521
01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:31,000
The pitch to Phillips' line to Centipede, a base hit.

522
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:37,000
That's hit number four off-coach.

523
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:43,000
And that'll bring up Bobby Locke, who was a pretty good hitting pitcher by the way.

524
01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:52,000
Locke is three for five this year, batting 600, has one double, two runs batted in.

525
01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:56,000
The Yankees leading five-nothing, they get their lead off head around again.

526
01:02:56,000 --> 01:03:01,000
That's the third time in five innings that the lead off man has gotten on base.

527
01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:13,000
Coach talking with Swedish Boyer.

528
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:17,000
Bob Phillips' first base, can't hardly sling in back of the runner at first.

529
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:24,000
Nobody out here in the bottom of the fifth.

530
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:28,000
Coach steps off the mound to look back at his outfield.

531
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:36,000
Now he checks the sign from house.

532
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:42,000
Here's the stretch. Pitch is in there, strike one call, the fast ball just above the knees.

533
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:48,000
Bobby Locke didn't like the call too much.

534
01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:53,000
Quite a famous golfer by the same name, Bobby Locke.

535
01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:55,000
Here's the stretch.

536
01:03:55,000 --> 01:04:00,000
The curve is hitting the ground, Kubeck up with it, over to Richardson for one back to first.

537
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:03,000
Not in time, he beats the throw to first.

538
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:06,000
It was a tough chance for Kubeck as the ball was coming on a big hop.

539
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:10,000
It hit the edge of the infield grass and then scooted on the ground.

540
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:15,000
Tony had to get out quickly to get it and Hurridge is throw to Richardson.

541
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:19,000
It's a fourth play from short to second, getting Phillips, Locke safe at first,

542
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:22,000
here's Johnny Semple, who singled and fly to right.

543
01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:24,000
One away.

544
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:26,000
Alright, here's the stretch by Coach.

545
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:31,000
Pitch to tempo, high and side ball one.

546
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:44,000
Jimmy Pearce all on deck.

547
01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:47,000
Again, Coach sets.

548
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:49,000
Here's the stretch.

549
01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:54,000
And the pitch is one is on the third baseline, it's a beauty if it stays there, it's a base hit.

550
01:04:54,000 --> 01:05:06,000
And it stays there, a perfect punch.

551
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:11,000
Boy, Johnny Semple dropped a bunch about 15 feet down the third baseline.

552
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:16,000
It hooked the baseline going down and all how it coasted and boy, if it do,

553
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:22,000
was hoped that it would roll foul but it stayed right on the line and it's a fair ball of base hit.

554
01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:25,000
Hit number five off-coach.

555
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:30,000
Run as it first and second with one out, here's Jimmy Pearce off.

556
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:33,000
Pearce all twice, flying to right field.

557
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:38,000
Five-nothing, the Yankees lead.

558
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:41,000
Here's the stretch.

559
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:43,000
Pitch to Jimmy is hit.

560
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:46,000
Here comes Lock.

561
01:05:46,000 --> 01:06:04,000
Pepple going to third, the third and Pearce all goes into second base.

562
01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:09,000
Jimmy Pearce all bounce to single off the hard infield, all the boy is head.

563
01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:14,000
Bobby Lock came on a score, Pepple split into third as Lopez threw to third and when Pearce also,

564
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:20,000
Lopez throw going into boy, he took off and beat boy as throw to Richardson at second base.

565
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:24,000
So the Indians have run as it's second and third, one out, it's a five-to-one ball game

566
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:31,000
and the batter is hardly seen, we're hitting it with double play and lined out deep to right center.

567
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:34,000
And the Indian fans are whooping it up.

568
01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:37,000
Pepple at third, Pearce all at second, here's the wind-up.

569
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:59,000
Pitch is a base hit to left field and the ball gets by Lopez.

570
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:03,000
Back to Lopez trying to make a shoot-string catch, the ball got by him,

571
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:07,000
but Harvey Keane was not running and so was not able to make second base,

572
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:10,000
but both Pepple and Pearce all scored.

573
01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:15,000
It's now a five-to-three ball game with one out here in the bottom of the fifth

574
01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:19,000
and the batter, Tito Francona.

575
01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:34,000
Francona has walked and singled and these Indian fans are going wild.

576
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:41,000
Here's a stretch back coach, Pitch, a foul back out of play, strike-wise.

577
01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:51,000
Bobby Shans is up in the Yankee bullpen.

578
01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:55,000
The bottom of the fifth inning, three Indians have crossed on plate.

579
01:07:55,000 --> 01:08:00,000
Five-three to Yankees lead.

580
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:06,000
Here's a stretch, low-curve, high ball one-one-one.

581
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:21,000
On deck is Vic Power.

582
01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:24,000
Coach's into the stretch position.

583
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:29,000
Pitch, change-up, high outside ball two, two-one.

584
01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:35,000
Elston Howard rubs up the ball.

585
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:53,000
They're holding first base against Harvey Keane.

586
01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:56,000
Here's a stretch by Coach.

587
01:08:56,000 --> 01:09:03,000
Pitch, foul back, strike-wise, two-one-two.

588
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:08,000
Pitch, might have been a little high that Francona went after.

589
01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:10,000
And Coach wants another ball.

590
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:14,000
Goes that one back in a plate on fire box to it.

591
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:17,000
Two balls, two strikes, one out.

592
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:20,000
High two and two to the count. Here's a stretch.

593
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:24,000
Pitch, high ball three, three and two.

594
01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:28,000
And Coach wants a different base ball.

595
01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:30,000
Took a long time rubbing that one up, going to the Rosenberg.

596
01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:33,000
He threw it once and asked for another ball.

597
01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:37,000
Full count on Tito Francona with Harvey Keane at first, one out.

598
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:41,000
And the Yankees leading five-three in the bottom of the fifth inning.

599
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:43,000
Here's a stretch.

600
01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:52,000
Pitch, high ball four.

601
01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:54,000
And while Elston Howard goes out to the mound to talk with Jim,

602
01:09:54,000 --> 01:10:03,000
Coach will pause for a station identification.

603
01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:08,000
1460 on the radio dial, quality modern radio in Albany, WOKO.

604
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:12,000
And now here comes Casey Stengel out to the mound.

605
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:17,000
And listen to the greeting old cases get.

606
01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:22,000
That's music to Casey's ears though, doesn't bother him one bit.

607
01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:26,000
Elston Howard joins Casey out on the mound with Jim Coach.

608
01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:31,000
Johnny James and Bobby Chance continue to loosen up in the Yankee bullpen.

609
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:34,000
The Indians have scored three runs here in the bottom of the fifth.

610
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:36,000
They got runners at first and second with one out.

611
01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:44,000
And the batter is Vic Pahler who has popped the short and lined out to center field.

612
01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:48,000
So Casey has his chat with Coach and leaves him in there.

613
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:54,000
High one away. Here's a stretch.

614
01:10:54,000 --> 01:11:01,000
Pitch is high ball one.

615
01:11:01,000 --> 01:11:04,000
Coach checks the sign from Howard.

616
01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:07,000
Runners lead away at first and second.

617
01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:13,000
Pitch, curve low outside ball two, two and nothing.

618
01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:18,000
On deck is Johnny Romano.

619
01:11:18,000 --> 01:11:22,000
Coach into the stretch position.

620
01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:27,000
Pitch is hit on the ground, a safe hit.

621
01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:29,000
And here's a throw to the plate.

622
01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:32,000
And it's a wild throw.

623
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:34,000
Team scores moving to third.

624
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:44,000
And the second is Vic Pahler.

625
01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:51,000
A base hit off Bobby Richardson's glove.

626
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:55,000
Bobby knocked it down, couldn't get to the ball.

627
01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:57,000
Harvey Keane round at third base.

628
01:11:57,000 --> 01:12:01,000
Richardson made a hurried throw that hit in front of Howard and rolled back to the wall.

629
01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:04,000
Coach was not backing up the play.

630
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:06,000
Team scored moving to third is Frank Kona.

631
01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:08,000
Moving to second is Vic Pahler.

632
01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:12,000
It's now a 5-4 ball game with the Yankees leading.

633
01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:19,000
And Jim Coast is out of the ball game.

634
01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:24,000
So the error will be charged to Bobby Richardson on a throw.

635
01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:30,000
As it hit in front of Howard and scooted under his glove.

636
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:34,000
The Indians have come up with 5 hits in this inning.

637
01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:36,000
They have a total of 8 all together.

638
01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:38,000
They've scored all 4 of their runs.

639
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:42,000
They have run it at second and third with 1-0.

640
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:45,000
And Bobby's chance is coming on a relief.

641
01:12:45,000 --> 01:12:49,000
Jim Coast.

642
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:57,000
So Coast cannot be the winning pitcher in this ball game and could very well be the losing pitcher.

643
01:12:57,000 --> 01:13:02,000
Should both Frank Kona and Pahler score and the Indians go on to win the game.

644
01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:07,000
We notice why little Bobby was hitting fungos during outfield and infield practice.

645
01:13:07,000 --> 01:13:11,000
He kept feeling that left shoulder of theirs.

646
01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:18,000
Stretching the arm and grabbing back at it.

647
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:23,000
Romano has struck out and walked.

648
01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:30,000
And then they have a second base Vic Pahler and over at third base Tito Frank Kona.

649
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:34,000
Alright Johnny Romano steps in on the batter's box.

650
01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:38,000
Runs it second and third lead away. Here's the wind up.

651
01:13:38,000 --> 01:13:43,000
The pitch is a curve high ball one.

652
01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:50,000
Bobby swings his left arm around a couple of times to loosen up.

653
01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:57,000
Here's the wind up. Curve strike call one to one.

654
01:13:57,000 --> 01:14:01,000
Romano try to duck under that pitch.

655
01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:07,000
Shakes his head and says no no to play it on fire box short.

656
01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:12,000
5-4 the Yankees lead the Indians where in the bottom of the fifth inning.

657
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:17,000
Yankee infield playing back they're not playing in to cut the runoff at the plate.

658
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:21,000
Outfield straight away and deep on Romano. Here's the wind up.

659
01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:25,000
Curve is high ball two. How it's left to throw down a second base.

660
01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:32,000
Vic Pahler takes the biggest lead of any base runoff when he's on second base and there's a runner on third.

661
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:37,000
Sometimes he goes better than halfway down a third.

662
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:44,000
Kubeck playing in the hole for Romano cannot hold Vic Pahler on and Richardson is playing deep at second base.

663
01:14:44,000 --> 01:14:47,000
There goes Pahler. Boy he is way up there.

664
01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:51,000
Here's the wind up. The 2-1 pitch.

665
01:14:51,000 --> 01:15:05,000
High outside ball three. 3-1.

666
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:11,000
Three balls one strike and one out. Vic Pahler leads off second. Hito Frank corner off first.

667
01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:15,000
Here's the wind up. Curve outside ball four.

668
01:15:15,000 --> 01:15:27,000
The bases are loaded and the batter is Woody Hale.

669
01:15:27,000 --> 01:15:30,000
Those single to left and lined out to center field.

670
01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:37,000
5-4 the score in the bottom of the fifth. The bases full of Indians. They're on the warpath for the base path rather.

671
01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:43,000
And here's Woody Hale. Anky infield back in double play depth.

672
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:53,000
Here's the wind up. The pitch. Outside ball one.

673
01:15:53,000 --> 01:16:01,000
Again the wind up. Curve swung it and missed strike one one one.

674
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:08,000
Joe Gordon yelling from the Indian bench. Woody Hale looks over there.

675
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:14,000
Joe doesn't want Woody to swing too hard. Just get a piece of the ball.

676
01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:21,000
Here's the wind up. Slow curve, bun it out and foul as they try to squeeze in the tying run.

677
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:28,000
One ball two strikes. Kent Hadley was playing deep at first base and Woody Hale tried to push the ball down that way but fouled it.

678
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:33,000
He had a good pitch to try and bun on. A slow curve ball.

679
01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:46,000
Here's the wind up. The pitch. High ball two, two and two.

680
01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:51,000
Brett Kress coaching at first. Walked halfway in. A home plate. Hale something. Woody Hale.

681
01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:58,000
Boy this is the tense moment in the ball game. Two balls two strikes. One out base is loaded. Here's the wind up.

682
01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:10,000
Curve gets away from Howard. Here comes the tying run.

683
01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:18,000
A wild pitch. Gards to Bobby Shenz. Fran Conest scores and the ball game is all tied up.

684
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:25,000
That run is charged to Jim Coates.

685
01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:36,000
And now Vic Power is at third. Johnny Romano at second base. A three-two count on Woody Hale with one out and a score tied five-five.

686
01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:43,000
Boy that's something you very seldom see Bobby Shenz executing a wild pitch.

687
01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:51,000
Casey Singleton standing up on the top step of the Yankee dugout and he pulls Kent Hadley in at first and Cleetus Boyer in at third.

688
01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:58,000
And they're going to walk. Held intentionally they're going to load them up.

689
01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:02,000
The bases are loaded and the batter is Bubba Phillips.

690
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:14,000
Phillips led off this inning. He's the tenth Indian to come to bat. Bubba Singleton a field. He bounced the third in the second inning.

691
01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:23,000
Once again the bases are loaded. With one out the score tied five-five. Cleveland has scored all five runs here in the bottom of the fifth.

692
01:18:23,000 --> 01:18:29,000
Vic Power with a big lead at third. Johnny Romano at second. Woody Hale at first. Here's the wind up.

693
01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:35,000
The pitch. Curve ball popped in the air. Kent Hadley is under it and fouls territory and makes the catch.

694
01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:41,000
As Bubba Phillips tried to check his swing the bat hit the ball and it was a short fly to first base.

695
01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:51,000
And here comes Bobby Locke. Locke bounced into a fourth play in the very same inning. This is his second time at bat.

696
01:18:51,000 --> 01:18:58,000
And he's a pretty good hitting pitcher. The score is tied five-five and we're in the bottom of the fifth inning.

697
01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:05,000
Yankee infield and most of the fans kind of expecting a squeeze play that time with Bubba Phillips up there.

698
01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:16,000
But it didn't materialize. Two men out bases still loaded.

699
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:24,000
Bobby looks at Vic Power. Here's the wind up. Curve outside ball one. Power has got chance worried a little bit over there at third.

700
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:30,000
He would try and steal home. He's done it before quite a few times.

701
01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:35,000
Chance checking the sign. Here's the wind up. The pitch is a curve hit on the ground.

702
01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:39,000
Who backs to his right up with it over to Richardson. In time to get Woody Hale.

703
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:49,000
Boy and Hale had some jumps. A fourth play from short to second and for Cleveland in the bottom of the fifth inning.

704
01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:58,000
Five runs. Five bases. One Yankee error. Three men left on bases score at the end of five for winning.

705
01:19:58,000 --> 01:20:03,000
All tied up. The Yankees five and the Indians five.

706
01:20:03,000 --> 01:20:08,000
So with the score tied five-five we're ready to go on the top of the sixth inning.

707
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:12,000
And leading off for the Yankees will be Bobby Schantz.

708
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:19,000
And so Jim Koch keeps his consecutive game winning streak intact. He cannot be the losing pitcher nor the winning pitcher.

709
01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:25,000
He has won 12 games in a row. Bobby Schantz and Bobby Locke are now the pitchers of record.

710
01:20:25,000 --> 01:20:39,000
Cleveland came up with five runs in the bottom of the fifth. Yet the Yankees were kind of lucky because the Indians had the bases loaded with only one out and failed the score.

711
01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:53,000
And incidentally that was an RBI credited to Vic Power on his infield single off Richardson's glove in the fifth inning.

712
01:20:53,000 --> 01:21:00,000
All right Bobby Schantz is up there. He's 0-4 on the air as a batter. Bobby Locke ready on the mound.

713
01:21:00,000 --> 01:21:05,000
His pitch to Schantz is a strike call. A fastball over the outside corner.

714
01:21:05,000 --> 01:21:12,000
And the Yankees and the Yankees have bounced to the box and doubled the right center field. Jim had driven in a run and scored a run.

715
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:29,000
The Indians got to him in the fifth inning. Pitch outside ball one-one-one.

716
01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:53,000
The one-one pitch is foul-tipped back strike two, one ball two strikes. His pitch is high inside two and two of the counts.

717
01:21:53,000 --> 01:22:03,000
Here's a two-two delivery. Pitch is inside ball three, three and two.

718
01:22:03,000 --> 01:22:17,000
Both count on Schantz. Here's the playoff pitch. Low ball four. Bobby gets the base on ball. First walk given up by Locke.

719
01:22:17,000 --> 01:22:25,000
And Schantz declines his warm-up jacket. And here's Tony Kubeck who bounced the second and then homed in the third and fourth innings.

720
01:22:25,000 --> 01:22:33,000
Tony has driven in three runs tonight. That is six and seven homers of the year.

721
01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:39,000
He already has more home runs this year than he had all last year.

722
01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:44,000
Schantz at first with nobody out and scored side five-five. Top of the sixth.

723
01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:52,000
Here's the stretch. Pitch has wanted a good bounce down third. The throw to first just in time to get Kubeck.

724
01:22:52,000 --> 01:22:57,000
Boy, I said it, that was a pretty bump by Tony Kubeck.

725
01:22:57,000 --> 01:23:03,000
Bobba Phillips really had a hustle to throw him out at first, moving down the second base.

726
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:09,000
Is Bobby Schantz. And here's Hechtel-Ophez who walked twice and fly to center field.

727
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:16,000
The right-hander says, curve hit on the ground. A temple off his glove in the right field as the base.

728
01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:25,000
Schantz will score right at Johnny Temple. But it took a wicked hop off his glove and the Yankees lead six to five.

729
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:33,000
They give him a base hit on it and an RBI. Boy, that ball was hard hit.

730
01:23:33,000 --> 01:23:40,000
So Bobby Schantz scores and the Yankees take the lead again six to five and here's Mickey Matel with Lopez at first.

731
01:23:40,000 --> 01:23:51,000
Temple went down at one knee as the ball hit about three feet in front of him but then it kicked high on off his glove in a short right field.

732
01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:57,000
Matel, fly to center, walked and fouled out to the catcher.

733
01:23:57,000 --> 01:24:16,000
Mickey is over four strikes. So that walk was costly given up by Bobby Locke as he walked little Bobby Schantz.

734
01:24:16,000 --> 01:24:26,000
Here's the stretch. The pitch curve of Hechtel-Calls. Boy, that was a big curveball. Just kept coming down and down.

735
01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:41,000
Two strikes on Mickey.

736
01:24:41,000 --> 01:25:00,000
Outside ball one. One ball, two strikes, one out, one run in. Hechtel-Opez at first base.

737
01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:11,000
The stretch and the curve is a little bit high ball two. Two and two. The infield, temple, thick power.

738
01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:23,000
The catcher, Romano and the pitch, Locke all waving their arms saying that was a good pitch. Two and two on Mickey.

739
01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:32,000
Jimmy Pearce all is thrown his hat in his gloves out in the center field. Look at Pearce all these.

740
01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:42,000
And Pearce all might throw, be thrown out of the game as Bob Stewart, the played umpire, starts walking out that way.

741
01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:53,000
And up temple and Bob Stewart arguing at the pitchers box. And Vic Powers walking over here. Come Joe Gordon.

742
01:25:53,000 --> 01:26:03,000
And Gordon is arguing with Bob Stewart. Boy, Joe is not. I'm telling you.

743
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:30,000
And while Joe Gordon is arguing with played umpire Bob Stewart, let's pause for a station identification.

744
01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:38,000
WOKO Albany, New York. All right, all the arguments seem to have ended. Mickey Mantle with a count two and two on him, one out.

745
01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:48,000
Low peasant first. Here's the stretch by Locke. The pitch, strike three, swinging.

746
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:54,000
Mickey went after a low fastball, didn't get it. That's two out. The Yankees leading six-five, here's Roger Maris.

747
01:26:54,000 --> 01:27:13,000
Maris blind to left walk and bounced out to first base.

748
01:27:13,000 --> 01:27:27,000
All right, here's the stretch by Locke. The pitch to Maris is strike one and swinging a miss.

749
01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:34,000
One strike two out. Here's the stretch. Curve is lying to right field and that's in here for base pitch.

750
01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:41,000
Keen up with it, deep in the corner to throw to second and it holds Maris to a long single.

751
01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:52,000
That was a long single, deep in the corner and Keen played that ball like an infielder.

752
01:27:52,000 --> 01:28:00,000
Roger Maris just got his fourth base hit off Cleveland pitching this year and Joe Gordon is coming out to the mound.

753
01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:07,000
And that could be all for Bobby Locke. And now they call for Klipschine.

754
01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:14,000
So Locke is out of there after pitching one and two-third innings in which he allows four base hits.

755
01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:21,000
Walk one, struck out one and has allowed three runs. Locke leaves Klipschine, comes on.

756
01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:34,000
Klipschine is six-one, 189 pounds from Chicago, Illinois with the Los Angeles Dodgers last year, had one-four and lost none.

757
01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:48,000
Here's Ken Hadley. Hadley bounce the first, pops up the third and homer deep in the right field seat. Two men are out.

758
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:54,000
Alright, here's the stretch by Klipschine. The pitch is popped in the air to short right field.

759
01:28:54,000 --> 01:29:01,000
Bobby Keen coming a long ways is under it and makes the catch for the outboard. Was that high?

760
01:29:01,000 --> 01:29:08,000
Go Klipschine with one pitch gets out of the inning for the Yankees in the top of the sixth one run on two base hits.

761
01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:15,000
No Indian errors and two men left on base.

762
01:29:15,000 --> 01:29:22,000
The score at the end of five and a half innings of the Yankees sixth and the Indians five.

763
01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:29,000
If you are in SmackDown.

764
01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:41,000
According with all the names associated with all your cowboys,

765
01:30:11,000 --> 01:30:13,000
Go here!

766
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:16,000
Hey, get your battle right here!

767
01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:19,000
At the top of the Indian batting order,

768
01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:23,000
Johnny Temple, Jimmy Piersol and Harvey Keane will be facing Bobby Shant here

769
01:30:23,000 --> 01:30:26,000
in the bottom of the sixth with the Yankees leading sixth to five.

770
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:29,000
Temple is two for three singles,

771
01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:31,000
fly to right and beat out a butt.

772
01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:32,000
He scored one run.

773
01:30:32,000 --> 01:30:34,000
Alright, here's Bobby's first pitch,

774
01:30:34,000 --> 01:30:36,000
low curve, outside ball one.

775
01:30:36,000 --> 01:30:38,000
Here's the wind-up.

776
01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:41,000
Fastball on the inside corner, one-on-one.

777
01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:51,000
Shant's into the wind-up.

778
01:30:51,000 --> 01:30:54,000
Pitch low, outside ball two, two-on-one.

779
01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:02,000
Alright, Shant's ready.

780
01:31:02,000 --> 01:31:06,000
Low curve, high ball three, three-on-one.

781
01:31:12,000 --> 01:31:16,000
Here's a three-one pitch curve, low outside ball four, he lost them.

782
01:31:19,000 --> 01:31:23,000
That's the third walk given up by Shant, and here's Jimmy Piersol.

783
01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:33,000
We're going to have action in the Yankee bullpen.

784
01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:38,000
Piersol, fly to right, twice single or left.

785
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:40,000
He's driven in a run and scored one.

786
01:31:40,000 --> 01:31:42,000
Pitch high inside ball one.

787
01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:47,000
Johnny James loosening up for the Yankees.

788
01:31:47,000 --> 01:31:49,000
Shant's in the lead.

789
01:31:52,000 --> 01:31:54,000
Temple is at first being held on by Kent Hadley.

790
01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:56,000
He represents the same run.

791
01:31:58,000 --> 01:32:00,000
Here's a stretch by Shant.

792
01:32:00,000 --> 01:32:02,000
Pitch is putter down third.

793
01:32:02,000 --> 01:32:06,000
Good front-boy at bubbles of balls, and it cannot make a play.

794
01:32:06,000 --> 01:32:08,000
All hands are safe.

795
01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:10,000
That'll go as a sacrifice and an error.

796
01:32:15,000 --> 01:32:18,000
Cleetis boy, it took his eye off the ball to watch Piersol,

797
01:32:18,000 --> 01:32:21,000
and it just kicked off the end of his glove, and now,

798
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:25,000
the Indians have run as at first and second with nobody else.

799
01:32:26,000 --> 01:32:28,000
Look at Piersol getting in the lead.

800
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:30,000
He's got a good ball.

801
01:32:30,000 --> 01:32:32,000
He's got a good ball.

802
01:32:32,000 --> 01:32:34,000
He's got a good ball.

803
01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:39,000
Look at Piersol getting on the official scorer.

804
01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:42,000
Boy, he gets on everybody from every place.

805
01:32:44,000 --> 01:32:46,000
He wanted a base hit on that.

806
01:32:47,000 --> 01:32:49,000
And here comes Casey Stengel.

807
01:32:50,000 --> 01:32:53,000
I tell you, that Piersol gets on the up-liar from center field.

808
01:32:53,000 --> 01:32:55,000
He gets on the official scorer from first base.

809
01:32:55,000 --> 01:32:58,000
And now Casey Stengel wants to talk with Bob Stewart.

810
01:32:58,000 --> 01:33:03,000
And Stengel wants to know how strong that Piersol gets away with all his shenanigans.

811
01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:08,000
Because other ball players have been thrown out for a lot less than Piersol has done tonight.

812
01:33:10,000 --> 01:33:15,000
Jimmy is a good ball player, and he plays it to the hilt,

813
01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:21,000
but at times he does think that other ball players would have been thrown out a long time ago.

814
01:33:21,000 --> 01:33:26,000
Piersol would have been a dead duck at first base if Kubek fielded the ball perfectly.

815
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:28,000
It was not a hard chance. It was a good one.

816
01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:30,000
But Boyer was playing in. He booted the ball,

817
01:33:30,000 --> 01:33:33,000
and rightly so the official scorer charged him with an error.

818
01:33:33,000 --> 01:33:35,000
A sacrifice and an error.

819
01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:37,000
Runners at first and second, nobody out.

820
01:33:37,000 --> 01:33:39,000
The Yankees leading 6-5.

821
01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:42,000
The batter Harvey Sheen, who hit into a double play,

822
01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:45,000
fly to right, finger to left. He's driven in, two and scored one.

823
01:33:45,000 --> 01:33:47,000
At least he's got a good ball.

824
01:33:47,000 --> 01:33:52,000
The ball is in a third.

825
01:33:52,000 --> 01:33:54,000
Here's a stretch.

826
01:33:54,000 --> 01:33:57,000
Pitch gets away from Howard Decker.

827
01:33:57,000 --> 01:34:00,000
The runners don't throw and all hands are safe.

828
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:03,000
Another wild pitch, got to Bobby Shans,

829
01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:05,000
and here comes Kabe Sengles.

830
01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:08,000
And Shans is out of the ballgame.

831
01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:11,000
Boy, I said he's out of the ballgame.

832
01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:17,000
Shans is out of the ballgame.

833
01:34:17,000 --> 01:34:20,000
Boy, I said if Shans is on, must be bothering him.

834
01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:23,000
That's his second wild pitch of the ballgame.

835
01:34:23,000 --> 01:34:26,000
And besides that, he's walked three men already.

836
01:34:26,000 --> 01:34:29,000
And they're calling for Johnny James.

837
01:34:29,000 --> 01:34:31,000
Both runners advance.

838
01:34:31,000 --> 01:34:34,000
Sengles went to third. Piers all to second.

839
01:34:34,000 --> 01:34:40,000
A one-ball, no strike count on Harvey Sheen.

840
01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:43,000
And now for Bobby Shans.

841
01:34:43,000 --> 01:34:50,000
So Bobby has actually pitched just two-thirds of an inning.

842
01:34:50,000 --> 01:34:54,000
And the strange part about it is that Shans has not given up a base hit.

843
01:34:54,000 --> 01:35:00,000
Johnny James is making his 19th appearance of the year.

844
01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:02,000
He's won three and lost none.

845
01:35:02,000 --> 01:35:07,000
Has an earned run average of 3.67.

846
01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:11,000
James will be pitching to Harvey Sheen, Tito Francona and Vic Pao.

847
01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:13,000
The Indians have the tang, run at third.

848
01:35:13,000 --> 01:35:15,000
The lead, run at second. There's nobody out.

849
01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:21,000
Now Piers all is talking with Tony Kubek.

850
01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:27,000
Looks like Piers all enjoys talking as much as Yogi Berra enjoys talking to other players.

851
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:35,000
Except that Yogi doesn't get near. He's excited as Piers all.

852
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:38,000
But that's what you call a colorful ball player.

853
01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:42,000
Outfield straight away on Keen. The infield is playing back. Here's the wind-up.

854
01:35:42,000 --> 01:35:53,000
The pitch is a curve high inside ball one. Keen has to go down.

855
01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:55,000
Six-five, the Yankees lead.

856
01:35:55,000 --> 01:35:58,000
In the bottom of the sixth inning. Here's the wind-up.

857
01:35:58,000 --> 01:36:02,000
Pitch is swung at a missed strike one, one-on-one.

858
01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:07,000
Now the two balls, one strike, Keen had some cut at that one.

859
01:36:07,000 --> 01:36:18,000
One-on-one with James, but Bobby Sheen has thrown a ball.

860
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:20,000
Curve is low. Ball three, three and one.

861
01:36:20,000 --> 01:36:31,000
Johnny Gabler is up in the Yankee bullpen.

862
01:36:31,000 --> 01:36:40,000
Three balls, one strike on Bobby Sheen.

863
01:36:40,000 --> 01:36:50,000
Here's the wind-up. Outside ball four.

864
01:36:50,000 --> 01:36:55,000
The bases are loaded in here. Cito Francona. Nobody out.

865
01:36:55,000 --> 01:37:06,000
Francona walks twice and singles. He scored one run.

866
01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:11,000
Six-five, the Yankees lead. The Indians are threatening. Bases loaded. Nobody out.

867
01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:16,000
Johnny James, the third Yankee pitcher of the night out on the mound.

868
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:20,000
Here's the wind-up. The pitch. Curve hits deep to right center field.

869
01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:26,000
Way back there. And what a catch Maris made. Holy cow.

870
01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:30,000
He took a grand slam home run away from Cito Francona.

871
01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:36,000
One of the greatest plays we've ever seen and Maris has heard a little bit out there.

872
01:37:36,000 --> 01:37:40,000
The top of the wire fence hit him underneath his left arm.

873
01:37:40,000 --> 01:37:43,000
One of the greatest plays we have ever seen.

874
01:37:43,000 --> 01:37:48,000
That ball was out of the ball box. Maris put his right hand up on the top of the fence.

875
01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:55,000
Leaped as high as he could. Caught the ball and came down with his left arm hung up on the fence.

876
01:37:55,000 --> 01:38:00,000
That was a grand slammer all the way if I've ever seen one.

877
01:38:00,000 --> 01:38:05,000
The run scores on the long-sacrificed fly by Francona. That ties up the ball game.

878
01:38:05,000 --> 01:38:09,000
Driving in Johnny Temple, moving the third on the play with fierce oil,

879
01:38:09,000 --> 01:38:16,000
but Harvey Keane was so stunned by the great catch of Maris's that he remained at first base.

880
01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:23,000
That run has charged to Bobby Keane and here's Vic Power who popped the short line to center and singles.

881
01:38:23,000 --> 01:38:27,000
Six to score. Boy, what a play that was. Here's the stretch.

882
01:38:27,000 --> 01:38:32,000
There goes the runner. The ball is hit on the ground a third. They got fierce oil hung up.

883
01:38:32,000 --> 01:38:41,000
He's in a run down. Howard runs him back. And now they run him back to third.

884
01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:48,000
And fierce oil is tagged out, but not before he hung up there in plenty of time to let both runners advance.

885
01:38:48,000 --> 01:38:54,000
On the field is Joyce.

886
01:38:54,000 --> 01:39:12,000
Went from five to two to five to one to six. Kubek making the put out.

887
01:39:12,000 --> 01:39:21,000
But Keane went to third and Vic Power advanced to second. Now they're at two out and the batter is Johnny Romano the catcher who struck out in walk flight.

888
01:39:21,000 --> 01:39:28,000
Four to side six-six. The Indians have had some wonderful scoring opportunities when they haven't been able to cash in on them.

889
01:39:28,000 --> 01:39:31,000
Outside of the six runs they've already scored.

890
01:39:31,000 --> 01:39:40,000
Vic to Romano. Best ball hit on the ground. A short Kubek. A long throw. In time to get Romano.

891
01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:54,000
So for the Indians in the bottom of the sixth inning, one run on Nariya Bay Fit. One Yankee era.

892
01:39:54,000 --> 01:40:01,000
And two men left on base in the score at the end of sixth full inning. All tied up to Yankee sixth and the Indians sixth.

893
01:40:01,000 --> 01:40:08,000
Boy I'd say that we got a dandy going here.

894
01:40:08,000 --> 01:40:14,000
Looks like Jim Coast was well on his way to his ninth victory having a five nothing lead but the Indians came back.

895
01:40:14,000 --> 01:40:27,000
And we're getting ready to go here in the top of the seventh and coming over to the radio side will be Mellon right after we pause for station identification.

896
01:40:27,000 --> 01:40:46,000
1460 on the radio dial. Quality modern radio. WOKO Albany, New York. 1030.

897
01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:53,000
Hello there everybody. Elston Howard takes the pitch low for a ball as we play in the seventh inning.

898
01:40:53,000 --> 01:41:01,000
Mellon Hennick Epstein doing the delivering and his next pitch bounces by the catcher for ball two.

899
01:41:01,000 --> 01:41:15,000
Howard beats Epstein in relief in New York recently as a pinch hitter when he had a home run off of him.

900
01:41:15,000 --> 01:41:25,000
The delivery on its way is inside for ball three. Howard grounded the second single to center twice.

901
01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:42,000
Six six that's the seventh inning. And the next pitch is inside for ball four. Howard walks open the seventh.

902
01:41:42,000 --> 01:41:55,000
The fourth player took a third strike. Hits the box into a double play. And reached first base safe on an error by Phillips.

903
01:41:55,000 --> 01:42:00,000
Been a while in Wolley when this is a game of being remembered all the rest of the year.

904
01:42:00,000 --> 01:42:13,000
The second base has to be. The punt and the play will be the second base but it is too late. Everybody's safe.

905
01:42:13,000 --> 01:42:28,000
Johnny Epstein threw on to Woody Hell but his throw was late. He had to sacrifice and feel his choice.

906
01:42:28,000 --> 01:42:34,000
The ball hands safe. No error on the play.

907
01:42:34,000 --> 01:42:41,000
An error of judgment which is not scored in the box score.

908
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:48,000
Now Bobby Richardson who lined the left single to right and grounded the short steps up.

909
01:42:48,000 --> 01:42:55,000
Big power shortened up at first ready to move in on a punt if such be forthcoming.

910
01:42:55,000 --> 01:43:19,000
The ball is taken high and inside. Oh Bobby gone into a funny position.

911
01:43:19,000 --> 01:43:35,000
The second base delivery is taken for a strike one in one.

912
01:43:35,000 --> 01:43:39,000
One ball one strike. Johnny Epstein to the stretch. Here's the pitch.

913
01:43:39,000 --> 01:43:49,000
He won it and Romano and he loses the ball and everybody is safe. Romano feeling the box.

914
01:43:49,000 --> 01:43:55,000
Let the ball slip out of his hand and the bases are loaded.

915
01:43:55,000 --> 01:44:00,000
It's a wild night. I'll tell you that.

916
01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:13,000
That's the third. Boyer to second. Richardson to first. Sacrifice and an error.

917
01:44:13,000 --> 01:44:20,000
I'll tell you it's contagious tonight.

918
01:44:20,000 --> 01:44:49,000
And now Johnny James is scheduled to bat but Yogi Berra is coming out to hit for Johnny James.

919
01:44:49,000 --> 01:44:54,000
Powered on third. Boyer on second and Richardson on first.

920
01:44:54,000 --> 01:45:00,000
And we've got some action in the Cleveland Bowl fan. Briggs is warming up.

921
01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:06,000
Yogi Berra hitting for James. We have Gabler warming up for New York.

922
01:45:06,000 --> 01:45:12,000
Ford's been loosening up but he was scheduled to start tomorrow the next day.

923
01:45:12,000 --> 01:45:17,000
Epstein into the wind up. The pitch is in there for a strike.

924
01:45:17,000 --> 01:45:31,000
Berra hitting 303.

925
01:45:31,000 --> 01:45:44,000
Now the wind up and the pitch inside for a ball one in one.

926
01:45:44,000 --> 01:45:48,000
Powered on third. Boyer on second. Richardson on first.

927
01:45:48,000 --> 01:45:52,000
Six sixths of course. The seventh inning.

928
01:45:52,000 --> 01:46:11,000
The wind up and the pitch. Outside for ball two. Two and one.

929
01:46:11,000 --> 01:46:20,000
Here's the two on delivery. Inside ball three. Three and one.

930
01:46:20,000 --> 01:46:36,000
Three balls. One strike.

931
01:46:36,000 --> 01:46:41,000
Three runners lead away. The wind up. The three one pitch. Swung on and fouled back.

932
01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:51,000
Full count now on Berra.

933
01:46:51,000 --> 01:47:01,000
Berra batting for James.

934
01:47:01,000 --> 01:47:19,000
Three runners lead away. The payoff pitch and Yogi swings fouls it back. Got remains three and two.

935
01:47:19,000 --> 01:47:24,000
Powered on third. Boyer on second. Richardson on first.

936
01:47:24,000 --> 01:47:30,000
The wind up and the pitch. It's low inside. Ball four. Yogi walks and Howard scores.

937
01:47:30,000 --> 01:47:37,000
Boyer moves to third. Richardson to second. And Berra to first.

938
01:47:37,000 --> 01:47:49,000
RBI for Yogi. 27. Times called as Berra leaves first base. And we're going to have a runner for him.

939
01:47:49,000 --> 01:47:53,000
Yogi's had an injured foot.

940
01:47:53,000 --> 01:48:05,000
Yogi's had an injured foot. And he's going to have a run for Berra.

941
01:48:05,000 --> 01:48:15,000
And here's Tony Kubeck who grounded the second. Hit two home runs off Jim Perry in the third and fourth innings and sacrificed in the sixth.

942
01:48:15,000 --> 01:48:37,000
Boyer on third. Richardson on second. Berra on first. Now Joe Gordon brings the infield halfway. Pitch to Tony as low ball one.

943
01:48:37,000 --> 01:48:43,000
The one nothing delivery. Inside ball two. Two and nothing.

944
01:48:43,000 --> 01:49:01,000
Joe Gordon comes out of the dugout. We've seen more of the managers tonight than we've seen in any given game all year.

945
01:49:01,000 --> 01:49:14,000
Johnny Briggs has been warming up. Gordon going out to talk to Johnny Kupstein who has been a spectacular pitcher this year for the Indians.

946
01:49:14,000 --> 01:49:21,000
He has allowed just a little better than seven tenths of a run for game as his earned run average.

947
01:49:21,000 --> 01:49:32,000
In 35 and two third innings of relief pitching going into tonight's game. He had given up just 15 hits and three runs.

948
01:49:32,000 --> 01:49:41,000
Walked 11. Struck out 23. So Joe is going to stay with him a little longer. Walked out and shoved him down.

949
01:49:41,000 --> 01:49:55,000
Obviously the Yankees in the setting haven't heard him in the way of batting a walk and two sacrifice. Two bunts that resulted in two sacrifices but nobody being retired.

950
01:49:55,000 --> 01:50:07,000
Another walk. Here's the two nothing pitch. Swung on and missed track one and it was a bad pitch. It was low and inside and Tony tried to stop his bat but couldn't.

951
01:50:07,000 --> 01:50:23,000
Two one count. Gave flip sign a lift there. Two one delivery. It's low and inside for ball three three and one.

952
01:50:23,000 --> 01:50:33,000
Three balls one strike. Boyer Richardson and Gerber lead away and the three one pitch swung on and fouled back out of play.

953
01:50:33,000 --> 01:50:57,000
Full count. Three balls two strikes. Here's the payoff pitch. Swung on a ground ball hit through the right field for basic Richardson scores in behind Boyer.

954
01:50:57,000 --> 01:51:08,000
There goes Gerber on his way to third base and he goes there and into second now goes to back as the ball bounced off the golf of Phillips.

955
01:51:08,000 --> 01:51:19,000
Time call now as Joe Gordon comes out of the dugout. A two run single by Tony Kubek gives him five runs batting in tonight.

956
01:51:19,000 --> 01:51:28,000
Thirty one the season. It's nine to six New York with runners on second and third and that'll be all for Johnny Clipstein.

957
01:51:28,000 --> 01:51:42,000
Boyer and Richardson scored and Gerber went to third and Kubek to second.

958
01:51:42,000 --> 01:51:51,000
He'll check with the scorer to see whether there's any error on the play that developed after the base hit or whether they score.

959
01:51:51,000 --> 01:52:01,000
Kubek having gone to second on the throw to third while the throw bounced off the chest of Phillips it was nowhere near in time to get Gerber going in.

960
01:52:01,000 --> 01:52:06,000
But the official scorer might rule it an error enabling Kubek to go to second.

961
01:52:06,000 --> 01:52:20,000
But he Tony had stopped and when he saw the ball bounce away then went on. So it's something that lies within the judgment of the official scorer.

962
01:52:20,000 --> 01:52:40,000
Johnny Clipstein now departs and Johnny Bragg comes in.

963
01:52:40,000 --> 01:52:53,000
He's come on in the sixth inning with two outs. So he worked one third of an inning and allowed one hit.

964
01:52:53,000 --> 01:53:01,000
He walked two. No strikeouts.

965
01:53:01,000 --> 01:53:13,000
Got himself into trouble on his throw to second on the bunt by Boyer which Boyer, by which Howard beat and then the error on the next bunt of Richardson's by Romano.

966
01:53:13,000 --> 01:53:31,000
Duplicating a situation like that which occurred in the sixth inning for the Indians. An error by Boyer on a bunt by Pearsall.

967
01:53:31,000 --> 01:53:44,000
The official scorer has ruled an error on Harvey Keane on his throw. Two third which enabled Kubek to reach second.

968
01:53:44,000 --> 01:53:53,000
Johnny Briggs coming in for the thirteenth time this year has a record of three in one.

969
01:53:53,000 --> 01:54:01,000
This will be his first occurrence against New York. 26 years old, 5'10", 175 pounders.

970
01:54:01,000 --> 01:54:09,000
And he'll pitch now to Hector Lopez who walked twice, fly to center and single to right.

971
01:54:09,000 --> 01:54:24,000
On third, Kubek on second. Joe Gordon plays the infield a little better than halfway for a play at the plate. The pitch is inside for a ball.

972
01:54:24,000 --> 01:54:28,000
Getting some more action in the Indian bullpen.

973
01:54:28,000 --> 01:54:44,000
And then the wind hawking. Briggs is the right hander. Runners lead away from second and third. The pitch to Hector Lopez is ball too high.

974
01:54:44,000 --> 01:55:02,000
No strikes. Three runs in on the seventh inning. Yanks nine, Indians six.

975
01:55:02,000 --> 01:55:15,000
Now the wind up and the two nothing pitch. Lopez swings and bounces it to third. They've got Gerber trapped. They throw to Romano, tags Gerber out on the third, goes to Kubek.

976
01:55:15,000 --> 01:55:31,000
On the fielders choice play. Phillip in the Romano.

977
01:55:31,000 --> 01:55:49,000
They're retired to Eli Gerber. Lopez on first, Kubek on third and the batter's manhole. Fly to right center, walk, foul the catcher and struck out.

978
01:55:49,000 --> 01:56:07,000
One away. The pitch to Mickey is inside, ball one.

979
01:56:07,000 --> 01:56:34,000
Briggs to the stretch and the pitch. Curve ball is in there. Strike one. One and one.

980
01:56:34,000 --> 01:56:48,000
One one pitch. High ball two. Two and one.

981
01:56:48,000 --> 01:57:01,000
Two balls. One strike. One out. Kubek on third and Lopez on first. Johnny Briggs in relief with Johnny Clipstein.

982
01:57:01,000 --> 01:57:12,000
Here's the pitch to Manhole. Swung on a line drive in the right field. Keen's going over and grabs it. Kubek tags his third. Dicks for the plate and comes in to score.

983
01:57:12,000 --> 01:57:37,000
Manhole lines out to Harvey Keen in right field and is credited with a sacrifice fly, scoring Kubek, making it 10-6. Lopez holds it first and here's Roger Maras getting a hand for that great play that he made when he robbed Tito Francona of a grand slam homer.

984
01:57:37,000 --> 01:57:59,000
Last inning. Starting to rain now. The pitch to Maras is high and away for a ball.

985
01:57:59,000 --> 01:58:13,000
Neither rain or bugs. Look up into the light. Here's the pitch. Swung on and fouled off to the left of the plate. Going to go out of play.

986
01:58:13,000 --> 01:58:29,000
Four runs in on the seventh. Yankees have scored in every inning but the first two. It's a while and it's got a long way to go yet too.

987
01:58:29,000 --> 01:58:49,000
The type of game to which the old cliche applies. The seesaw struggles. Now you teeter, now you totter. The 1-1 pitch. Swung on and ground ball hits the second. Up with it is Temple, throws on the power and the sides retired.

988
01:58:49,000 --> 01:59:10,000
Four runs for New York with only one hit in one error and one man left off. At the end of six and a half innings of play. New York 10, Cleveland six.

989
01:59:10,000 --> 01:59:22,000
They're playing take me out to the ball game. Where I can get that Valentine. Or if you're at home I hope you got plenty of Valentine on hand.

990
01:59:22,000 --> 01:59:31,000
Valentine beer, the crisp for pressure. You know to really refresh your beer must have lightness plus flavor. And that's Valentine all the way.

991
01:59:31,000 --> 01:59:42,000
It's the light beer with true lago flavor. Matter of fact it proves to more and more people every day that a beer can be light and still give you all the downright delicious lago beer flavor you want.

992
01:59:42,000 --> 01:59:56,000
All of which explains why Valentine beer is the crisp for pressure. So if lightness alone won't do for you, if you want to beer with flavor too, then you just open up for order up smooth, delicious Valentine beer.

993
01:59:56,000 --> 02:00:18,000
And you'll see why Valentine's the largest selling beer in the east all the way from Maine to Florida.

994
02:00:18,000 --> 02:00:37,000
In the last half of the seventh inning, Johnny Gable will come into pitch for New York.

995
02:00:37,000 --> 02:00:54,000
Johnny James came on in the sixth inning with nobody out and still worked the one inning.

996
02:00:54,000 --> 02:01:09,000
And now Gable.

997
02:01:09,000 --> 02:01:29,000
Gable will be the first batter. And then we'll have a pinch hitter for Bob Phillips. Looks like Bob Hale.

998
02:01:29,000 --> 02:01:44,000
He held up. Right hander Johnny Gable to the wind up and the pitch in there for strike.

999
02:01:44,000 --> 02:01:56,000
Gable's 13th appearance. He has a record of two and three.

1000
02:01:56,000 --> 02:02:13,000
And the next pitch is a curve low outside for a ball one and one.

1001
02:02:13,000 --> 02:02:27,000
The one one pitch to what he held. High ball two, two and one.

1002
02:02:27,000 --> 02:02:54,000
Gable's single left line to center and was purposely passed. Gable's two one pitch. High ball three, three and one.

1003
02:02:54,000 --> 02:03:06,000
Three balls, one strike. The three one pitch. It's high for ball four and Hale walks.

1004
02:03:06,000 --> 02:03:31,000
Eight walks given up by the Yankee pitchers. And here's Bob Hale coming up to bat for Bob Phillips.

1005
02:03:31,000 --> 02:03:40,000
And here's Gable. He'll on back. Well hit for the pitcher.

1006
02:03:40,000 --> 02:04:02,000
Delivers to Hale. He's in there for a strike.

1007
02:04:02,000 --> 02:04:15,000
Gable checks the runner. The pitch to Hale. Swung on foul to strike two. Nothing in two.

1008
02:04:15,000 --> 02:04:34,000
Jim Grant joins Win Hawkins in the bullpen. Nobody warming up for New York just yet.

1009
02:04:34,000 --> 02:04:48,000
Two strikes on Bob Hale. Gable delivers and Hale fouls it back out of play.

1010
02:04:48,000 --> 02:05:09,000
Gable's had six for twenty seven. Gable to the stretch. And the pitch to the left hand batters.

1011
02:05:09,000 --> 02:05:27,000
One ball, one and two. He almost swung at it.

1012
02:05:27,000 --> 02:05:40,000
One ball, two strikes. Johnny Gable checks the runner, Hale and the pitch to Hale.

1013
02:05:40,000 --> 02:06:03,000
One ball, two strikes.

1014
02:06:03,000 --> 02:06:13,000
Hale on first base. Nobody out. The two, two delivery to Hale. Swung on in missed strike three.

1015
02:06:13,000 --> 02:06:22,000
One down. And now here is Marty Keough to bat for Johnny Briggs.

1016
02:06:22,000 --> 02:06:34,000
He's a former Red Soxer, batting 246 on the season. Now Ryan Durin breaks out of the Yankee dugout, runs down to the bullpen.

1017
02:06:34,000 --> 02:06:47,000
Keough and Boesfield came to the Indians from Boston with Nixon and Hardy going to the Red Sox.

1018
02:06:47,000 --> 02:06:54,000
Now they're signaling to Hector Lopez to come in. He went out of position.

1019
02:06:54,000 --> 02:06:59,000
Here's the delivery. Swung on. A down ball, hit through to right field for base hit.

1020
02:06:59,000 --> 02:07:08,000
Hale stops the second. Keough hits the first pitch as a pinch hitter, singles to right.

1021
02:07:08,000 --> 02:07:15,000
And we're off and running again at the Unisport Stadium. Runners on first and second and top of the order.

1022
02:07:15,000 --> 02:07:23,000
Johnny Temple with Jimmy Piersdahl on deck.

1023
02:07:23,000 --> 02:07:31,000
I thought that game in Kansas City the other night was about the wildest of the year and it may have turned out to be,

1024
02:07:31,000 --> 02:07:37,000
but this one is running at a close second and it may even surpass it.

1025
02:07:37,000 --> 02:07:50,000
Tabor pitches Temple. Fast ball over for strike.

1026
02:07:50,000 --> 02:07:57,000
Temple's had two out of three tonight. Walked once. He's on a hot streak.

1027
02:07:57,000 --> 02:08:02,000
Runners lead away from first and second and the pitch. Swung on, bounce toward third.

1028
02:08:02,000 --> 02:08:08,000
Throw over to second for one. Back on to first and he pulls him off the bag. No double play.

1029
02:08:08,000 --> 02:08:16,000
Hale went to third. And now here's Jimmy Piersdahl.

1030
02:08:16,000 --> 02:08:28,000
Temple forces Keough at second. Boyard or Richardson. They failed, however, to double up Temple.

1031
02:08:28,000 --> 02:08:34,000
Hale went on to third. Richardson's throw pulled Hadley off the bag.

1032
02:08:34,000 --> 02:08:41,000
So the Indians still have a life and the Yankees have got some action on the bullpen.

1033
02:08:41,000 --> 02:08:51,000
Duren and Maas. Piersdahl has had one for four.

1034
02:08:51,000 --> 02:09:00,000
Gaper's pitch. Bunnett and the ball is grabbed from front of the plate. Howard throws down to first and Piersdahl is out and so are the Indians.

1035
02:09:00,000 --> 02:09:10,000
Piersdahl attempting a surprise two out. Bunnett is thrown out by Elston Howard.

1036
02:09:10,000 --> 02:09:18,000
No runs for the Indians. One hit. No errors for the Yankees and two Indians left off.

1037
02:09:18,000 --> 02:09:24,000
And at the end of seven innings of play in New York, ten runs, ten hits, two errors.

1038
02:09:24,000 --> 02:09:33,000
Nine men left off. Cleveland, six runs, nine hits, three errors. And eleven men left off base.

1039
02:09:33,000 --> 02:09:40,000
Well, with a new pitcher coming in, why don't you ask the man for Valentine beer?

1040
02:09:40,000 --> 02:09:42,000
The light beer with true lago flavor.

1041
02:09:42,000 --> 02:09:48,000
Enjoy a tall frosty glass bowl right now. We pause for station identification.

1042
02:09:48,000 --> 02:09:53,000
1460 on the Radio Dial, Quality Modern Radio, WOKO, Albany, New York.

1043
02:09:53,000 --> 02:10:04,000
New York State Police advise people and onlookers to stay away from the Rotterdam-Carman area of West Connectedee due to the storm and property damage in the area.

1044
02:10:04,000 --> 02:10:18,000
Repeating once more, the New York State Police have advised us to inform the onlookers and people in the area of the Rotterdam-Carman area of West Connectedee to stay away from the area due to storm and property damage.

1045
02:10:18,000 --> 02:10:19,000
Right, Captain.

1046
02:10:19,000 --> 02:10:35,000
Hail batted from Phillips and stays in, goes to first base, power switches over to third.

1047
02:10:35,000 --> 02:10:48,000
And wind hawkins comes in to pitch.

1048
02:10:48,000 --> 02:10:55,000
This is a fifth Cleveland pitcher.

1049
02:10:55,000 --> 02:11:10,000
Riggs came on in the seventh inning to relieve hookstimes or work one inning.

1050
02:11:10,000 --> 02:11:21,000
Wind Hawkins has a record of four and four. His 12th appearance of the season, he has been mostly a starter. Pitching now to Ken Hadley.

1051
02:11:21,000 --> 02:11:33,000
Swings and misses, Frank Wander.

1052
02:11:33,000 --> 02:11:37,000
Hadley's had one for four. That was a home run.

1053
02:11:37,000 --> 02:11:53,000
The pitch is a curve and it's inside. Hadley grounded to first, popped to third at a homer, into the right field seats and fly it out to right.

1054
02:11:53,000 --> 02:12:03,000
Here's the pitch swung on. It's a high pop-up in the short left. Woody Hell drifts out, gets under it and makes the catch.

1055
02:12:03,000 --> 02:12:08,000
Hadley pops out to the short stop in short left.

1056
02:12:08,000 --> 02:12:20,000
Now here's Elston Howard who grounded to second, single to center twice and walks.

1057
02:12:20,000 --> 02:12:31,000
The pay to tenants tonight is $39,675, just short of $40,000.

1058
02:12:31,000 --> 02:12:39,000
Wind Hawkins delivers to Howard, backs him away with an inside pitch ball on Hawkins right-hander.

1059
02:12:39,000 --> 02:12:45,000
Mudcat Grant still warming up along with Gary Bell who just has gotten up.

1060
02:12:45,000 --> 02:12:49,000
They deliver to Howard, swung on, hits the third on one hop.

1061
02:12:49,000 --> 02:13:02,000
He goes on to first in time. Two away. Howard plays third base like a first baseman. I mean by that he's very versatile.

1062
02:13:02,000 --> 02:13:10,000
He plays second or third outfield first but he plays it with a glove hand.

1063
02:13:10,000 --> 02:13:15,000
One hand's of another word.

1064
02:13:15,000 --> 02:13:22,000
Here's Cleat-Foyer. Nothing for three. Takes a strike, took a third strike,

1065
02:13:22,000 --> 02:13:30,000
hit to the box in a double play, grounded to third to safe on an error and sacrificed.

1066
02:13:30,000 --> 02:13:44,000
10-6 New York, it's the eighth inning. Hawkins delivers, swung on and missed. Strike two, good fastball.

1067
02:13:44,000 --> 02:13:50,000
And the strike pitch, two strike pitches outside, ball one, one and two.

1068
02:13:50,000 --> 02:13:56,000
Big Stigman gets up to throw an out and plays a bell.

1069
02:13:56,000 --> 02:14:06,000
The one-two pitch, swung on, lined to short, backhanded beautifully by, what a hell, about a foot off the ground.

1070
02:14:06,000 --> 02:14:15,000
That retired the side in order. No runs, no hits, no errors, no one left on. So for the first time since the second inning the Yankees are out in order.

1071
02:14:15,000 --> 02:14:22,000
And at the end of seven and a half innings, New York 10, Cleveland, six.

1072
02:14:22,000 --> 02:14:28,000
I bet most of you out there know at least one fellow who lacks nothing but the best. That fellow may be you.

1073
02:14:28,000 --> 02:14:32,000
You're only satisfied with the very best of anything you buy.

1074
02:14:32,000 --> 02:14:38,000
You've got good reasons if you're that kind of a person to switch to the crisp refresher, Valentine beer.

1075
02:14:38,000 --> 02:14:42,000
You see every day more and more folks pass the man for Valentine.

1076
02:14:42,000 --> 02:14:49,000
Now when a beer is that popular, it just figures that it's got to be the best. And that's the crisp refresher all the way.

1077
02:14:49,000 --> 02:15:00,000
Valentine's the light beer with true laga flavor. It proves a beer can be truly light and still give you all the honest to goodness laga beer flavor you want.

1078
02:15:00,000 --> 02:15:13,000
So if you enjoy the best, you'll enjoy the one beer that delivers both lightness and flavor. Valentine beer, the crisp refresher.

1079
02:15:13,000 --> 02:15:27,000
Ted Boasfield, loosening up for Cleveland now. He's scheduled to pitch on Sunday.

1080
02:15:27,000 --> 02:15:36,000
Sometimes with so much going on, there's some pitches warming up to ready to come into this game and some are just taking their loosening up for a future start.

1081
02:15:36,000 --> 02:15:42,000
Right now, I'm going to ask the eighth, it's Harvey Keane leading off Francona and power to follow.

1082
02:15:42,000 --> 02:15:49,000
Johnny Gabor to the wind up and the pitch is high, ball one. Keane grounded the third into a double play,

1083
02:15:49,000 --> 02:16:15,000
fly to right, single to left and walk. He's driven in two runs. Gabor's pitch is in there for strike, one-on-one.

1084
02:16:15,000 --> 02:16:26,000
The one-on-one offering, inside for ball two, two-on-one. And it's starting to rain now.

1085
02:16:26,000 --> 02:16:43,000
The rain's starting to come down very hard. The two-on-pitch is low on inside for ball three, three-on-one.

1086
02:16:43,000 --> 02:16:54,000
Three balls, one strike.

1087
02:16:54,000 --> 02:17:03,000
The three-on-pitch, inside for ball four and Keane walks to open the eighth.

1088
02:17:03,000 --> 02:17:11,000
Nine baser on balls, giving up.

1089
02:17:11,000 --> 02:17:24,000
Here's Tito Francona, robbed of a grand slammer by Roger Maris about times called and the ground crew comes out to put the tarplin down.

1090
02:17:24,000 --> 02:17:33,000
At about five after eleven on the clock here, I think it's a couple minutes slow.

1091
02:17:33,000 --> 02:17:44,000
Of course, that had to be an element added into this kind of a game.

1092
02:17:44,000 --> 02:17:51,000
So time has been called at Cleveland in the last of the eighth inning, sudden shower.

1093
02:17:51,000 --> 02:18:04,000
And just as they start getting the tarplin down, it's the rain smackens.

1094
02:18:04,000 --> 02:18:18,000
Still drizzling, but not as hard as it was.

1095
02:18:18,000 --> 02:18:27,000
The rain is just about stopped. Bob Stewart comes out, goes take it off.

1096
02:18:27,000 --> 02:18:41,000
That was a quick one.

1097
02:18:41,000 --> 02:18:47,000
Just a sudden shower, and it started to rain earlier just a little bit.

1098
02:18:47,000 --> 02:19:05,000
The rain began to pour, harden up for them to call time, and just as they got the tarplin covering half of the infield, the rain stopped.

1099
02:19:05,000 --> 02:19:13,000
It's always a difficult situation for the umpires.

1100
02:19:13,000 --> 02:19:19,000
They're rolling the tarplin back, and we'll be playing ball again in just a few seconds.

1101
02:19:19,000 --> 02:19:44,000
We're at Boston Duren, warming up for New York. We have Keen on first base, and Francono will be up to play.

1102
02:19:44,000 --> 02:20:04,000
It gives us a chance to look at some of the scores we haven't looked at in a long while.

1103
02:20:04,000 --> 02:20:10,000
Kansas City leading Baltimore 4-0, 10-2.5 innings. Larson and Brown.

1104
02:20:10,000 --> 02:20:14,000
Lumpy hit a grand slammer in the second innings.

1105
02:20:14,000 --> 02:20:19,000
The White Sox lead the Red Sox 2-1, 10-2.5 innings. Shaw against Mon Bouquet.

1106
02:20:19,000 --> 02:20:24,000
Detroit 4-0, Washington nothing at the end of 7 innings. Bunning for the Tigers.

1107
02:20:24,000 --> 02:20:28,000
Kralik relieved Lee in the second for the Senators.

1108
02:20:28,000 --> 02:20:32,000
In the National League, San Francisco leads Cincinnati 4-2 at the end of 7 innings.

1109
02:20:32,000 --> 02:20:37,000
McCormick for the Giants. Cook for Cincinnati Grim in the 8th.

1110
02:20:37,000 --> 02:20:40,000
Kirkland and Bell of Homer. Bells went off.

1111
02:20:40,000 --> 02:20:46,000
Pittsburgh beat the Cubs 4-1. Myzel beat Ellsworth. Now we're ready to continue here.

1112
02:20:46,000 --> 02:20:53,000
Nobody out. Keen leads off first. The pitch to Francono in there for a strike. Kerbal.

1113
02:20:53,000 --> 02:21:03,000
Philadelphia 4-0, St. Louis 3-0 innings. Roberts against the Decky with Brolio and McDaniel in relief.

1114
02:21:03,000 --> 02:21:06,000
Dodgers and Braves 3-3 down to 5 innings.

1115
02:21:06,000 --> 02:21:10,000
McDaniel is relieved by Roebuck in the second. Willey relieved by Jay in the first.

1116
02:21:10,000 --> 02:21:19,000
Howard Holmwood for the Dodgers and Aaron for the Braves. Aaron came with one on as his 17th.

1117
02:21:19,000 --> 02:21:26,000
10-6, New York, last the 8th. Nobody out. Keen on first. Tito Francona at bat.

1118
02:21:26,000 --> 02:21:32,000
John Gabers pitch in there. Strike 2. Kerbal nothing in 2.

1119
02:21:32,000 --> 02:21:43,000
Francona walks single to center. Walks. And then in the 6th inning was robbed of a grand slam homer on a sensational catch by Roger Merris.

1120
02:21:43,000 --> 02:21:47,000
Gabers to the stretch. Keen leads off first. The pitch to Francona.

1121
02:21:47,000 --> 02:22:12,000
Dodgers foul dipped and dropped. Francona still alive. Howard clock to hang on to the ball.

1122
02:22:12,000 --> 02:22:17,000
John Gabers again to the stretch. Keen leading away from first. The pitch to Francona.

1123
02:22:17,000 --> 02:22:31,000
Buckleball low for a ball. 1-2.

1124
02:22:31,000 --> 02:22:38,000
One ball, two strikes.

1125
02:22:38,000 --> 02:22:45,000
Gabers to the stretch. Here's the pitch to Francona. Swung on a ground ball hit to Hadley.

1126
02:22:45,000 --> 02:22:50,000
He throws to Gabers covering as Keen goes to second.

1127
02:22:50,000 --> 02:22:57,000
Francona grounds out. Hadley to Gabers who covers. Now big power.

1128
02:22:57,000 --> 02:23:09,000
Popped to short. Glad to center. Slingled off the glove of Richardson and grounded to short.

1129
02:23:09,000 --> 02:23:22,000
Big powered bat Johnny Romano on deck.

1130
02:23:22,000 --> 02:23:29,000
Gabers into the stretch. The pitch to power. Swung on grounded toward third.

1131
02:23:29,000 --> 02:23:33,000
It's grabbed by Boria one handed. It throws to first in time as Keen holds second.

1132
02:23:33,000 --> 02:23:40,000
A good play by the third baseman. Two down now.

1133
02:23:40,000 --> 02:23:53,000
Johnny Romano struck out. Walked twice and grounded to short.

1134
02:23:53,000 --> 02:24:10,000
What he held on deck.

1135
02:24:10,000 --> 02:24:14,000
Gabers into the stretch. Keen leads off second.

1136
02:24:14,000 --> 02:24:27,000
And the pitch. It's over for a strike. Curve ball.

1137
02:24:27,000 --> 02:24:36,000
Nothing on the count on Romano.

1138
02:24:36,000 --> 02:24:42,000
Gabers delivers and Romano takes outside for a ball. One and one. Pitch to the right hand batter.

1139
02:24:42,000 --> 02:24:48,000
A little ball low outside. Two and one. Romano swung on. There's a fly ball into deep center.

1140
02:24:48,000 --> 02:24:55,000
Romano trails back and makes the catch. And the sides retired. No runs, no hits, no errors.

1141
02:24:55,000 --> 02:25:00,000
One left on. At the end of eight innings. The Yankees 10 runs, 10 hits, two errors.

1142
02:25:00,000 --> 02:25:04,000
Cleveland six runs, nine hits and three errors.

1143
02:25:04,000 --> 02:25:11,000
In the ninth inning.

1144
02:25:11,000 --> 02:25:20,000
Bobby Richardson will lead off for New York hitting eighth in the order.

1145
02:25:20,000 --> 02:25:23,000
And Gabler and Kubek.

1146
02:25:23,000 --> 02:25:28,000
Wyn Hawkins who came on in the eighth inning.

1147
02:25:28,000 --> 02:25:36,000
The fifth Cleveland pitcher. Jim Perry in four innings allowed five hits.

1148
02:25:36,000 --> 02:25:42,000
And four runs. Bobby Locke in two thirds allowed four hits.

1149
02:25:42,000 --> 02:25:45,000
And two runs. And Clipstein in the third of an inning.

1150
02:25:45,000 --> 02:25:52,000
Gave up one hit. Four runs were charged to him.

1151
02:25:52,000 --> 02:25:57,000
Braggs and Hawkins have stopped the Yankees. The pitch to Bobby is in their fourth strike.

1152
02:25:57,000 --> 02:26:01,000
Richardson lying to left. Single to right. Grounded to short.

1153
02:26:01,000 --> 02:26:07,000
And...bunnyed in the safe on an error by the catcher, Romano.

1154
02:26:07,000 --> 02:26:18,000
Hawkins deliberate. Curve ball over. Strike two. Nothing in two.

1155
02:26:18,000 --> 02:26:35,000
No balls, two strikes. Hawkins pitch is in the dirt, bounces by the catcher.

1156
02:26:35,000 --> 02:26:41,000
One ball, two strikes.

1157
02:26:41,000 --> 02:26:45,000
Hawkins pitch. Richardson swings and chops it high to third.

1158
02:26:45,000 --> 02:26:49,000
One handed by Power throws the first in time.

1159
02:26:49,000 --> 02:26:54,000
And the offense you just tuned in. Power switched from first to third.

1160
02:26:54,000 --> 02:27:02,000
Last inning, Bob Hale having pinched it for the third base from Bob Phillips and remained in the game and went to first base.

1161
02:27:02,000 --> 02:27:07,000
Johnny Gabler comes up for his first time at bat.

1162
02:27:07,000 --> 02:27:23,000
10-6 New York hits the ninth inning.

1163
02:27:23,000 --> 02:27:29,000
Hawkins delivers a fast ball outside. Ball one.

1164
02:27:29,000 --> 02:27:38,000
One ball, no strikes. And the one-nothing pitch.

1165
02:27:38,000 --> 02:27:46,000
Swung on and fouled off to the left of the plate out of play.

1166
02:27:46,000 --> 02:28:01,000
One and one.

1167
02:28:01,000 --> 02:28:15,000
The one-one pitches. Ball two inside. Two and one.

1168
02:28:15,000 --> 02:28:20,000
Nothing like an evening out in the damp air for a summer cold.

1169
02:28:20,000 --> 02:28:25,000
How's yours, Bambi?

1170
02:28:25,000 --> 02:28:29,000
Two balls, one strike.

1171
02:28:29,000 --> 02:28:34,000
And the pitch. Swung on and popped foul off third. Roman on power after Dan. Power will get it.

1172
02:28:34,000 --> 02:28:47,000
Next to catch. He made that catch with two hands.

1173
02:28:47,000 --> 02:28:55,000
Two away in the ninth inning.

1174
02:28:55,000 --> 02:29:01,000
Tony Kubek steps up, grounded a second, hit two homers in the third and fourth innings.

1175
02:29:01,000 --> 02:29:06,000
Sacrifice and single. He's driven in five runs.

1176
02:29:06,000 --> 02:29:19,000
Hawkins pitches, fast ball over four strikes.

1177
02:29:19,000 --> 02:29:23,000
The one strike delivery. Curveball is bounced down to first to Bob Hale.

1178
02:29:23,000 --> 02:29:28,000
He takes it, tosses to the pitcher covering in time and the side's retired.

1179
02:29:28,000 --> 02:29:32,000
No runs, no hits, no errors, no one left off.

1180
02:29:32,000 --> 02:29:36,000
When Hawkins came in and retired six Yankees in a row.

1181
02:29:36,000 --> 02:29:45,000
In fact, with Friggs having come in and the seventh nobody out, nine Yankees in a row have been retired.

1182
02:29:45,000 --> 02:29:50,000
All in two of the outs in the seventh.

1183
02:29:50,000 --> 02:29:56,000
A run scored on a sacrifice drive by Mato.

1184
02:29:56,000 --> 02:29:58,000
So what's the end of eight and a half innings?

1185
02:29:58,000 --> 02:30:02,000
It's 10-6 New York. The Indians will have held Hale.

1186
02:30:02,000 --> 02:30:09,000
And if it hadn't traded Carol Hardy off, you'd have had Hale and Hardy coming up at it.

1187
02:30:09,000 --> 02:30:13,000
Sorry. Why don't you have some Valentine?

1188
02:30:13,000 --> 02:30:15,000
Hell, that'll be good.

1189
02:30:15,000 --> 02:30:18,000
You know on the lighter side of the sport, there's a golfer played 100 degrees.

1190
02:30:18,000 --> 02:30:23,000
He hit a ball, traveled all of 75 yards before it exploded in midair and started to grass fire.

1191
02:30:23,000 --> 02:30:25,000
Man, it was dry.

1192
02:30:25,000 --> 02:30:29,000
Now there was a famous university that set a new high on the care of its athletes.

1193
02:30:29,000 --> 02:30:33,000
It ensured the thumb of each member of its tiddlywinks team for $700.

1194
02:30:33,000 --> 02:30:35,000
Got a hand it to them.

1195
02:30:35,000 --> 02:30:39,000
Now let's turn from the lighter side of sports to the lighter side of beer.

1196
02:30:39,000 --> 02:30:43,000
Valentine. Valentine is the light beer with true lago flavor.

1197
02:30:43,000 --> 02:30:50,000
Lightness and lago beer flavor. Two good reasons why Valentine refreshes you like nothing else can.

1198
02:30:50,000 --> 02:30:56,000
Refresh with a crisp refresher.

1199
02:30:56,000 --> 02:30:58,000
Woody Hale.

1200
02:30:58,000 --> 02:31:03,000
Swing to the left, line to center, walk twice, leads off in the last of the line.

1201
02:31:03,000 --> 02:31:09,000
Gabers pitch, swung on and bowled off the foot of Hale.

1202
02:31:09,000 --> 02:31:14,000
One strike.

1203
02:31:14,000 --> 02:31:27,000
Duran Moss working out.

1204
02:31:27,000 --> 02:31:35,000
Gary Bell and Ted Postfield loosening up for Cleveland.

1205
02:31:35,000 --> 02:31:51,000
Able of the wind up and the pitch is inside for a ball, one-in-one.

1206
02:31:51,000 --> 02:32:03,000
The one-in-one delivery to Hale, swung on and bowled off toward the Yankee dugout. Strike two, one and two.

1207
02:32:03,000 --> 02:32:09,000
The last of the nine thinning.

1208
02:32:09,000 --> 02:32:14,000
Aisley, Baltimore five, nothing end of three and Chicago beat Boston two to one.

1209
02:32:14,000 --> 02:32:20,000
Detroit leading Washington four to nothing end of seven. Here's the pitch, swung on and missed. Strike three.

1210
02:32:20,000 --> 02:32:24,000
Woody Hale strikes out.

1211
02:32:24,000 --> 02:32:27,000
One down to the nine thinning and here is Bob Hale.

1212
02:32:27,000 --> 02:32:35,000
He batted for Phillips in the seventh and remained in the game.

1213
02:32:35,000 --> 02:32:44,000
Struck out in the seventh inning.

1214
02:32:44,000 --> 02:32:51,000
The pitch is swung on and grabbed on one hop, tagged out by Gabler.

1215
02:32:51,000 --> 02:32:59,000
Here's a thing that managers normally tell him not to do. He took the ball and one hop and waited for the runner to come by and tagged him.

1216
02:32:59,000 --> 02:33:07,000
And not only that, but Hale let him tag him. Usually he's not knocked the ball away from him.

1217
02:33:07,000 --> 02:33:14,000
Now we're going to have a pinch hitter for Hawkins, Chuck Tanner.

1218
02:33:14,000 --> 02:33:19,000
Chuck Tanner hits for Wynn Hawkins.

1219
02:33:19,000 --> 02:33:25,000
Gabler unassisted. Tanner left hand batter. The pitch swung on, a bouncer hit off to second.

1220
02:33:25,000 --> 02:33:31,000
Hale hopped, grabbed by Richardson close to Hadley and the ball game is over.

1221
02:33:31,000 --> 02:33:41,000
You could have seen that one. Bobby leaps in the air almost pirouetted as that ball took a high hop and was almost the base hit.

1222
02:33:41,000 --> 02:33:48,000
No runs, no hits, no errors, no one left on. And the Yankees won it by a score of ten to six.

1223
02:33:48,000 --> 02:33:53,000
The Yankees ten runs, ten hits, two errors, the Indians six runs, nine hits and three errors.

1224
02:33:53,000 --> 02:34:00,000
We'll recap it for you very quickly. After you enjoy the Chris Professor Ballantine beer, we're going to in a little bit.

1225
02:34:00,000 --> 02:34:06,000
The light beer with true log of flavor. That's Ballantine.

1226
02:34:06,000 --> 02:34:13,000
The Yankees got away to a five run lead with one run in the third inning on 2-becks Homer.

1227
02:34:13,000 --> 02:34:24,000
And in the fourth inning on a single by Richardson, Coach Double, which got Richardson home and 2-becks two run Homer.

1228
02:34:24,000 --> 02:34:32,000
And then in the, that was all off Jim Perry. Perry went out and locked him in in the fifth inning and Hadley homered off of him.

1229
02:34:32,000 --> 02:34:42,000
But Coach was gotten to in the fifth inning for five runs by the Indians on a single that started it by Phillips.

1230
02:34:42,000 --> 02:34:49,000
He was forced to second by Locke. Then came a safe front by Temple, a single by Piersol for a run.

1231
02:34:49,000 --> 02:34:57,000
He singled in two, we'll walk to Brancona and infield hit for power, got a run home.

1232
02:34:57,000 --> 02:35:08,000
And there was five, five. And then the Yankees went ahead six to five in the sixth inning on a walk to Bobby Shantz, who had replaced Coates.

1233
02:35:08,000 --> 02:35:20,000
A sacrifice by Kubeck and a single by Hexton Lopez. That made it six to five and then the Indians got a six run to the last of the six.

1234
02:35:20,000 --> 02:35:27,000
When Temple walked, was sacrificed by Piersol, it was safe on an error by Boyer.

1235
02:35:27,000 --> 02:35:31,000
Then James came in to relieve Shantz, team walked.

1236
02:35:31,000 --> 02:35:38,000
Brancona then with the bases loaded, almost changed the game around when he hit the ball actually over the right center field screen.

1237
02:35:38,000 --> 02:35:49,000
But Roger Maris made one of the great catches of the year to rob him of a grand slam homer and Temple scored after the catch and that was all the Indians scored in that inning or four of the night.

1238
02:35:49,000 --> 02:35:57,000
Johnny Clipstein, who had relieved in the sixth inning with two outs and got Hadley out, walked Howard in the seventh.

1239
02:35:57,000 --> 02:36:04,000
Boyer and Richardson both sacrificed and each went safe, one on a feeler's choice play, which the throw arrived too late.

1240
02:36:04,000 --> 02:36:11,000
At second base from the pitcher and an error by the catcher and Richardson's punt, then Barra hit for Johnny James, who had relieved Shantz,

1241
02:36:11,000 --> 02:36:18,000
and walked to force a run in. Kubeck, single, two more in and a sacrifice by Mantle got the fourth run in.

1242
02:36:18,000 --> 02:36:24,000
So that's the way the runs were scored. Perry, Locke, Clipstein, Briggs and Hawkins working for the Indians.

1243
02:36:24,000 --> 02:36:30,000
Coach Shantz, James and Gaber for New York with Gaber working the last three innings in handsome style.

1244
02:36:30,000 --> 02:36:43,000
But James was the pitcher of record when the runs were scored, he gets the win. He has a record of four and oh, and Malousha's Clipstein a record of one and three.

1245
02:36:43,000 --> 02:36:52,000
Well that winds up another Valentine baseball broadcast. Now this is Bob Zelini saying that's all for now from the Atlantic refining company and your friendly Atlantic dealer

1246
02:36:52,000 --> 02:36:57,000
who offer you Atlantic Imperial gasoline to keep your car on the go.

1247
02:36:57,000 --> 02:37:26,000
And P. Valentine and son, Brewers of the Crisp Refresher, Valentine beer, the largest selling beer in the East.
