On October 1, 1936, the Chicago White Sox faced the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field for
the annual Chicago City Series exhibition game. This event marked another chapter in
the long-standing Cubs-White Sox rivalry, which had defined the city's baseball landscape
for decades. The Cubs entered the series after finishing fourth in the National League while
the White Sox, despite being a mid-tier team in the American League, had the upper hand
(00:33):
in these intra-city showdowns. The White Sox were managed by Jimmy Dykes and the Cubs
by Charlie Grimm. This rivalry had been one of baseball's most consistent postseason matchups
since the early 1900s, with the teams competing in the city series almost every year that
neither club was in the World Series. Although the Cubs had secured National League pennants
(00:53):
in 1929, 1932, and 1935, their success did not translate into city bragging rights as
the White Sox continued to dominate these matchups. This audio recording is from the
radio broadcast featuring announcers Fred Palmer, Hal Totten, and George Watson.
(01:32):
I highly recommend watching this program of these showσ
(01:59):
But eating ladies and gentlemen, they've won.
You know that contest, we can't tell them yet who's the winner because we don't know yet.
There's four players so close to the top that they're having to go back and add every bit of a vote that's come in again.
In other words, right from the start they're re-adding all the votes to make sure that one of these four players that are within 100 votes of each other on the unofficial standing is actually the winner.
(02:26):
And that's to the who is going to win the other prizes, the prizes for those writing in.
Well, we still hope to have it within a week, but I don't know.
Those thousands and thousands of letters are bearing a lot of reading and a couple of the judges right now are out of town,
so we've got to get them back in town so we can bear down on those.
If the people of these stations, we will too, I hope.
(02:48):
Anyway, I'm trying to because I sort of ain't just no one else.
That's so high up.
Yeah, I want to know who's getting all these automobiles and fur coats and...
Radios, I mean, you and I can't get them, but nobody can.
At least we can know who got them, maybe.
Yeah, right.
And we have the fun of presenting them.
Well, the World Series opening game and some and gone, hasn't it?
(03:09):
And the team went just about the way most people figured it would.
A fellow named Carl Hubbell was just about two-tops for the boys.
And he won that game six to one, being the Yankees in that fashion, holding the seven hits.
Striking out eight of them by cracky and walking only one.
In other words, the Yankees saw a great stop-fall with great stuff and control.
(03:33):
They've seen a lot of great stop-falls in their league with good stuff.
Some of them have got so much control.
Of course, the veterans have like lefty-growl when he's right,
mineral whitey-o, but the majority of them have them to control and the stuff that Hubbell had.
And he showed it time and time again.
Just from hearsay and what we know of the series, the game, we know several things that happened.
(03:58):
The four of what was said before the series really got underway.
The first head of the game went to Bill Terry.
That was one of Bill Terry's two hits.
Terry showed that he's the great money player he always was.
However, another giant player who figured on being a great money player lived up to his reputation.
That was Mella, the little rascal who plays right field.
(04:20):
And it's one of the greatest young ball players in the major league than now already a veteran.
But a couple of other boys bounced up with base hits.
Eight of the nine hits made by the giant were made by four players.
One of them was little Dick Bartell.
You know Bartell is one of these fiery little players who may be very hot but very cold.
(04:43):
He might be very dangerous and bad or very docile.
Today he was very, very tough.
Matter of fact, it was his home run that tied up the game after Paul had started rather a...
...selkirk that put the Yankees ahead with a home run early in the game.
And the other two hits you get.
Uh-huh.
(05:04):
Paul level himself.
Boy, he's always been tough off at that dish.
But when he was out there with that winning spirit, he was up with two more base hits.
You know, that sort of gives an idea of what those giants have.
Now, tomorrow may be a different thing.
Freddy Fitzsimmons is going to pitch.
Charlie Fitzgerald lefty Gomez.
Gomez has been going erratically lately.
(05:26):
He's pitched one good game.
One good game at the end of a very erratic season is another question.
The third inning again saw Hubble rise to the height.
Selkirk opened the inning with a home run.
That put the Yankees ahead.
And after Hubble himself talked about roughing and close-editing pops to whitehead,
we're open to margio's things.
Well, there was one of those big Yankee innings in the making.
(05:48):
Who was it, Matt?
Lou Geary.
What did he do?
Hit a nice little boundary down to fellow named Carl Hubble and Hubble through about the first inning.
I don't know.
And Hubble was right in there all the time.
More than a gunner was Hubble.
It had started to rain.
Fans didn't like it very much because he ball handling was bad.
They were very proud.
It was uncomfortable until they played the ball game in these conditions.
(06:11):
So they went on.
And the Dickey opened up looking at a fair strike.
A total double collector was there he was.
There was the real tough spot.
They tried a double steal, figuring they were one run ahead.
And that great little general back of the plate, who is to my mind one of the fellows
that is completely not appreciated in baseball.
A fellow who should have much more credit for what he's getting.
(06:33):
Gussman Cusole put that ball down to Jackson and the fleet put it hard sliding and cutting
and flashing and bike wielding.
Hall was out.
And then Delkirk, who had hit a home run early in the game, was struck out for the third out.
Little Miller had bounced up in the sixth inning to hit a base hit, a two base hit in the back
(06:58):
showing that he wasn't there and he doubled to left, showing that he had a good pitch ball.
It was pitched outside to keep you from hitting it to right and into the fan.
Ripple, the youngster, coolly stepped up there and laid down a sacrifice.
If you think sacrificing against good pitching, such as Ruffing was showing and Ruffing did,
they took part in the ball game.
Do you think starting against that kind of pitching and under that strain of DZ,
(07:20):
you're cool.
So I was five, remember.
And here was the proper trick.
And so Ripple laid down the sacrifice and the same Gussman Cusole,
the boy who bears down when it counts, single to left to drive in that run
and puts the Cups ahead.
So there, he drafted the Cups.
He had the national in the team anyway.
(07:41):
Seventh inning again was Hubble.
After Powell, single to left, Larry turned around and struck off for the second time.
Delkirk forced Powell and Terry, rather Terry Barkell, and Ruffing, banned.
So there you had Mr. Hubble again.
Giant Teddy, six runs, nine hits and one error, and the Yankees one run, seven hits, two errors.
Batteries for the Giant Trouble and Mancucle, for the Yankees Ruffing, and six.
(08:08):
The City Series game, clean the white dots, the Cups was called off on top of the very, very Islamic weather.
It rained, it was cold, and just all together too bad.
While that hurts the coffers of the ball clubs, I don't believe they're crying very much,
because it adds the Sunday game to the player's pool.
Players share in the first four games, and the games now are one game at Rikki Field tomorrow,
(08:33):
games at Komiski Park on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and then back to Rikki Field.
So the players now share in the Sunday game, which should come close to being at the Pasty House, weather permitting.
The Brakes have started to play a part in the World Series.
(08:55):
Brakes and Camperman are liable to play a big part in the City Series.
I wonder if knowing these players intimately, having known them since most of them have been with the Chicago Gloves,
and some of them before that, it wouldn't be sort of a good idea to go down these various line-ups,
and picture the personalities of the men, whose personalities do play a big part in a short series,
(09:18):
when everything depends on what's going to happen.
Take Rip Rats, it's a white-stock lead-off man.
There's a fellow who is much better than a 300-hitter.
It's a fellow who may go through the first two or three times of bat in the ballgame, without getting on beat.
And then all of a sudden, when the going gets tough, he comes up with that singular double-to-drive-in run,
and he needs two runs this year.
(09:40):
Or get on base to score runs, he scored 120 himself, makes a 207 hit.
One of the two members of the white-stock was going over the 200-hit mark,
half-way in the end, the other was 204.
And you have a man who is dangerous right down to the last six.
And a fellow who is very, very sure on a fly ball, although he has that trouble with ground ball.
Larry Rolls with all of the youngsters who is just a little bit inclined to try too hard this year, his first year,
(10:05):
and he might choke up in a clinch.
On the other hand, if they let up for a minute, he's going to part of that ball and cause trouble.
Mule Haft is a better.
His record of only 46 runs batted in, 76 runs scored, and a batting average of 285 doesn't really tell what Mule can do.
Because it's those tough runs that he drives in when the going gets tough, and that's the actual.
(10:28):
Zeke Vanora is a big, happy-go-lucky guy who's rather hit than anything else in the world,
and you can't get him down whether it's a city series, world series, or just a spring practice game.
And with 138 runs already batted in this year, look out for Zeke under any circumstances.
I don't believe I have to talk about Luke Gaffling and his temperament.
A kid about the fact that he always is celebrating a sore arm or a sore ankle or something.
(10:52):
That's in the clubhouse around the bench when he's talking about it.
Out there in the field, he never quit.
He's driven in 128 runs, scored 111, made 204 hits, let both leagues with an average of 388,
and he's going to be funny tough.
Hey, this is another fellow who drives in runs.
It was a bat only 416 times this year and made 130 hits, but drove in 86 runs.
(11:15):
That's what's tough.
Jimmy Dykes is another fellow who is tough with men on bases,
and Luke Zul is noted as a man to drive in tough runs.
On the cup side, Golan can go on base, but unless he does, he's had a slightly bad year,
why the cups don't post so well.
Cat Ratt is a question.
The last few games of the season, he went pretty well,
but whether he can continue to do that in the short, the important series is a question.
(11:39):
He didn't do it in the World Series.
Billy Herman ended the season in a trippy slump, and it's more than due to come out of it,
and if he's out of it, everybody better look out.
I see the time has moved around again, so come in for a vision.
Yes, and now just a word to all you folks who like to go out to the kitchen
and raise the refrigerator for a bite to eat before going to bed.
Most of us will be getting that urge a little later this evening, I know.
(12:02):
Well, here's my tip.
Remember to ask your go-to for Kellogg's corn flakes tomorrow.
Enjoy them for breakfast, lunch or supper,
but be sure that they're handy for a crisp and tasty snack at bedtime.
Kellogg presents how tough his inside story on baseball.
Each day at this time except Sunday.
(12:23):
This is the National Broadcasting Company, WENR, the Voice of Service in Chicago.
And it's now 30 seconds until 7 p.m.
We're leaving there in favor of WLN.
Good evening, friends.
You're now listening to WLN, the voice of Murray Palmer, America's oldest farm paper Chicago.
(12:46):
We join with the facilities of the National Broadcasting Company
to bring you our first feature of the evening.
C.M.L. in Chicago.
Your new fall suit is ready at Morris B. Fax, 6638 South Halston Street.
Fax is offering stylish, beautifully tailored 2,000 suits

(13:13):
The service will pay you to see them soon.
We leave our studios now as we take you to Wrigley Field
for the first game in the city series between the Cubs and the Cubs.
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.
We're speaking here from Wrigley Field, the home of the Cubs in Chicago.
We're going to bring you this afternoon the first game,
(13:34):
which has supposedly the first game of the city series between the Chicago Cubs
and the Chicago Right Cubs.
We're going to start to turn the Cubs out onto the field,
but before the Cubs take the field,
we'd like to give you the lineup for the game to be played this afternoon.
For the right side, for the first one to come to battle,
throw the vests from the south side.
The battery will be...
(13:56):
Burn Kennedy on the mar and look to behind the bat, the battery.
And the batting order, Rip Rackleith,
Redfield, Barry Rosenfor,
Vanderfield, Newhouse, Rightfield,
Zeke Vanora, Third Base,
Blue Caffling, First Cubs,
(14:18):
Jackie Hayes, Second Base,
Managé Jimi Dike, Third Base,
Loop Two Catching and Burnham Kennedy pitching.
There's a survival club.
The battery, build the armament,
get the hardness behind the bat,
Burnham, Vanderfield,
Joe Cabaretta, Third Base,
(14:40):
Woody Herman, Second Base,
Frank Demery, Rightfield,
Stanley Hack, Third Base,
Gabby Hartnett, Catching,
Johnny Gil, Leftfield,
Bill Jurgis, Shortstop and
Bill Lee, the pitcher.
The game is just about to start.
The umpires are all going to their positions.
(15:01):
And incidentally, we might remind you that the umpires saw this afternoon
from the next morning.
The umpires, Barr and Stewart,
and all the American leagues are going and on.
Today is right overcast and the wind is coming out of the
northwest. Not a very strong wind,
the very rugged wind.
We will say that in the Grand Stamps,
there are about 18,000 people.
(15:23):
Just about 18,000 people.
Now there at bat is Rip Racket.
Rip Ball has been thrown right once.
He swings and hits the second one,
right down the right field line, and he is out.
By a play at First Base,
by Frank Demery taking the ball on the bat.
Running over and cutting on First Base,
retiring Rip Racket.
(15:45):
And that brings Larry Rosenball to bat.
Larry Rosenball is back.
There's a wind up and a pitch.
The first ball comes over.
Ball's on.
So the back is one ball on Larry Rosenball.
There's a wind up.
Big Bill Lee taking that blow wind up.
And here's a pitch.
Strike two, two strikes on Larry Rosenball.
(16:06):
The second man at bat with one man out in the first
and he's going to white shot.
Now he's running up the ball out there on the mound.
Big Bill Lee putting the pitch back on again.
Here it is, that blow swinging wind up.
And the pitch.
Ball two.
Ball two and strike one on Larry Rosenball.
Two balls and one strike on Larry Rosenball.
Watching for the time.
Bill Lee gets his time.
(16:28):
Here's the wind up, the cover and the pitch.
And it is over the outside corner.
Now it's left the outside corner.
There's about an inch for ball three.
So the count is three balls and one strike on Larry Rosenball.
All of the white shots in the first half of the first inning
of the first game of the city fair.
A lot of firsts on Allen.
Here is the pitch.
And it is like two, two balls and three strikes.
(16:51):
He's running the count out to the end.
Here comes the big one.
Watching for his time.
Getting his time from Gaby Hartman.
Here is the wind up and the pitch.
And he is called out on strike.
Called out on strike for Larry Rosenball.
That makes two outs in the first inning for the white shots.
And he was called out.
He didn't even blink.
(17:12):
He can't make any pitch unless you take that bad hold.
And that brings Neal Hart to donkey to bat.
Standing up there, left handed hitter.
He's got the pitch.
It looks good to get the ball out of the ballpark.
He really caught a hold of it and he can.
Neal Hart.
And it is ball one.
The first ball pitch, ball one from Neal Hart.
Right fielder.
How did you call this high shot?
(17:34):
Here is the wind up and the next pitch.
And it is ball two.
Wide and low on the outside corner for Ball Two.
Ball Two.
So Neal Hart is at bat with two balls and no strikes.
Two men out in the first half of the first half.
They go winding up there again.
And the pitch.
And it is three balls and no strikes.
(17:56):
Bigville needs to lock that control.
Which is so foolish.
Winding up again to make another pitch.
See if we can't get it down the middle this time.
And it is right one.
So that's three balls and one strike.
And Neal Hart.
Neal waiting for a pair.
All ready to crowd it over the fence.
He hits the second one.
Now the fourth stop, Luke Ehring.
(18:18):
There he comes.
And he hits from Bill Gurgis.
That retired the side.
Bill Gurgis.
He'll feel capital letters first.
Retiring the side with three outs.
No runs.
No hits.
And no errors in the first half of the first inning for the White Sox.
(18:40):
And now it seems we can't get into the start for the White Sox.
White Sox coming to bat in the last half of the first inning.
So they're coming to bat in the last half of the first inning.
And they're on the mound now.
Warming up here for in Kennedy.
The pitcher for the White Sox.
And behind the bat, Luke Stur.
Luke Stur doing the catching for the White Sox today.
The first man has got four of the cups in the last half of the first inning.
Bring up Neal Oggy to land.
Oggy to land.
(19:02):
He'll hit right hand left.
And against the right hand of pitching of Green Kennedy,
we'll hit left hand.
There goes the ball half the second play.
So the fourth stop.
Warming it around the infield and back to the pitcher,
Green Kennedy.
Green Kennedy is catching up the mound now.
Getting a step for his particular side of pitching.
And Oggy to land is in the
batter's box
(19:24):
to face Green Kennedy
of the White Sox.
There's his playing in the cuddle.
Half the pitcher in the first ball.
And it is high and wide for a ball one.
Blinding up for the second pitch.
Right down the alley for strike two.
(19:46):
Strike one. Ball one and strike one.
(20:10):
Second half of the first inning.
Repiring Oggy to land.
Applied to center field.
Taken by Rose Sox
of the White Sox.
And that brings Neal Cabaretto
to the first base of the bat.
He'll be starting 273 this year.
Left hand hitter,
making 20 Kennedy.
Kennedy looking around the field.
(20:32):
Falling in his infield just a little bit.
Taking their positions to entry hit.
His main and there's a bit.
Get out into left center.
And Rip Rashid is waiting for it.
And makes the catch for two outs.
Two outs in the last half of the first inning.
Gap made by Rip Rashid with the White Sox.
So it's two outs.
And that brings Billy Herman.
(20:54):
After that, a right handed hitter.
He's up there.
Napping the plate.
Getting himself adjusted.
Waiting for the first pitch.
Already for the first pitch.
Here is the wind up.
And the pitch.
And he hits it.
And he is out flying high like retiring a side.
With no run.
(21:16):
No hit.
And no errors.
So the White Sox comes about the first half of the second inning.
With the floor tried.
Nothing's in our thing.
At the end of the first inning.
The White Sox is all gone back down.
And is there dug out over the first pitch over there.
(21:38):
And certainly the White Sox looks very stressed.
And they're very uniform.
Sounded like a very white, whole uniform.
Are also looking very stressed.
This means the whole park is all messed up.
For their first game of the City series.
The field is as green as it can be.
And it seems to be a very enthusiastic crowd out there.
It's about 18,000.
And we're going to get a little bit of a break.
And we're going to get a little bit of a break.
(22:00):
That's about 18,000.
Bigville Lee is warming up out there with
Gabby Hartman's mound.
There goes the ball to
Second Wave.
Around the field, around the infield and back to the pitcher.
And now
stepping into the
That is what is Bigville.
First baseman of the White Sox.
What did you take the first pitch?
(22:22):
Barely winds up, throws.
And it is Ball Rock.
Ball one high and outside.
Looking for a sign.
Here's the wind up.
And the pitch.
And it is Strike Run.
Bringing the count to one and one on Big Zeke's Inora.
The first hitter in the first half of the second inning
for the White Sox.
Taking his position again.
(22:44):
Barely watching for his sign.
Has it.
He hits it out into the center field.
It's way high.
Going out there and center field.
All you go on makes the catch for the first half
of the second inning.
And the first half of the second inning
is hitting the 388.
The season record was 388.
The first pitch he hits it out to right field.
(23:06):
It's a high fly going out there.
And Frank Demery, one bullet,
makes the catch and it is two out
in the first half of the second inning
against the White Sox.
Two out, which brings
Blackie Hayes to the bat.
And the first half of the second inning
is the White Sox.
Blackie Hayes to the bat.
Second baseman of the White Sox
(23:28):
who's been hitting this year.
312.
Hitting average of 312. The danger of hitter and any man, please.
And the first pitch.
And he hits it out to right field.
And if Frank Demery is running in
and he catches it out and it is three out.
No run.
No hit.
And no errors in the first half of the second inning.
(23:50):
No errors in the first half of the second inning.
No errors in the first half of the second inning.
For the Chicago White Sox,
which brings the Chicago Cups to bat
and the last half of the second inning.
And the first run up, he is
White Shielder Frank Demery
who made the last out in the first half of the second inning.
Frank Demery coming to bat.
On the last now, the Black Sox
has taken a field. The outfield is going out to their position.
(24:12):
The infield is going out to their position.
Going and going around.
They're going to be running up to the school.
And here comes the third pitch of the bat
and the second half of the
second inning. For the Cups
Frank Demery White Shielder
Frank Demery and Sadaf Lee has been hitting
and his record this year
has a percentage of 348
348 a dangerous hitter.
(24:34):
Now, ready for the first pitch?
Now, ready for the first pitch?
Now, ready for the first pitch?
Kennedy getting his time from Luke Schultz.
Here's the line up and the pitch
and it is goal one high on inside
to a right-handed hitter.
One and no strike.
The first hitter is the second half of the second inning.
Here's the next pitch.
Right down the heart of the plate for
(24:56):
the Black Sox. The count is one and one.
On Frank Demery, one goal and one strike.
The pitch
got away from Luke Schultz
right side. The goal went all the way through
for ball two. Goal far outside
and even Luke Schultz couldn't catch him.
Went all the way back to the screen for two goals
and one strike. Down on Frank Demery.
Frank Kennedy can't stay a little bit wild
right now. Getting a sign
(25:18):
out, tumbling the ball there.
Wow, that one very nearly took a half
out that time. He had to duck underneath
and it got away from it.
Frank Demery all looking in the peak of the cap
for ball three. He's got three goals and one strike
on Frank Demery.
And on those faces, there's a little bit of dusting off going
but on those faces, the first one that's been anywhere near
a hitter. I don't think we can play that safe.
The throwback from Luke Schultz
(25:40):
was wide and
as to Kennedy had to walk out awesome
out of the most predictable left in the infield.
Nobody's going to have to meddle. Here's the next pitch
and it was right down the heart of the plate
and Frank Demery letting go by a fourth strike
two. So the string is right off at the end.
Three goals and two strikes on
Frank Demery. The next pitch he hit to
a high fly into short center field
run back first
(26:02):
is the second baseman
the second baseman
Jackie Hay took the fly
and maybe a third is
one out in the last half
of the second inning
which brings
Stanley Hatt to the back.
Stanley Hatt coming to the back.
(26:24):
The second hitter in the last half of the second inning
for the Cubs. The Cubs
did that.
Stanley Hatt to left-hand hitter
batting in 307 this year
for the entire season.
Here's the wind up by Kennedy on the fifth.
He hit to the ground there, one into the box
Kennedy takes it and goes to the sixth
and then the second out
in the second inning.
(26:46):
So that was out from Kennedy
to the newer
the second out in the second inning
which brings Jackie Hatt
back up to the gap where the four will touch the back
seems to have a few to tell me more about that
top priority here in the south for Funderland
and they must have been stopped by a little
of a few of them from there and now they're in the cure.
Here's the third pitch to Jackie Hay
and then the four are inside
(27:08):
and low to the right-handed hitter.
Big Gary Hartnett to get the hold of the third
trying to hold those leashes.
The second pitch
to the two.
Kennedy is getting himself in a hole.
Gary Hartnett this year in the bat play
had a hitting average of
307. Real seven Gary Hartnett batting at.
Watch for his client. He has it.
(27:30):
Blue stool. And here's the pitch.
Sounded high into the first
deck of the right field
stand right down back a first base.
Had a fight of straddle for the ball
just to settle down now. Somebody got it.
Two balls were thrown out by the umpire
rubbing it up a little bit
to get the shine off the ball and looking around the field.
Incidentally no man on base. Two outs.
Two balls and one strike on Gary Hartnett.
(27:52):
Here's the pitch by Kennedy.
Souted a swing at it
but the shot goes back to
going to go by for a ball high and up
for ball three and strike one.
Three balls and one strike on Gary Hartnett
which is a pitch. He swings
and goes down striking.
Striking out for the third out in the second inning.
Wow.
(28:16):
Good try.
He rides the next one out into right field.
He'll have going back after
and he makes the catch for the third out.
So, Gary Hartnett went out after all.
Flying out
to Mulehouse in right field
for the third out in the second inning
making it no run.
No hit.
And that brings to that
(28:38):
in the first half of the third inning.
Jimmy Dikes
third baseman for all they should call the white box

in the second inning.
There's Big Bill Lee
warming up
with O'Day.
O'Day warming up Big Bill Lee while Gary Hartnett
who was the last man to hit gets on his catching frog
chest protector in full force.
(29:02):
He seems to be doing himself
a very nice warm up out there.
He hasn't missed the plate in five goals.
There's a six throw right through the heart of the plate.
There goes out the second brace
over the shortstop
over the third brace
crossed the first and back through the pitcher.
Here comes the bat for the

Here's that stretch.
That's the ball that's the first on the pitch.
And it is

(30:08):
Looks as if
the sacrifice that time to get Jimmy Dikes to
second base.
But it was a strike over the heart of the plate
that he left go by for a call strike.
So he looks at the first base.
Pitches and
the pitchers through the second
and it's a fast double play.
A fast double play from

With Johnny Gill holding first base.
Walking up there
tapping on the plate.
(33:04):
Trying to be knocking him out of the line.
Incidentally the fielder is very nice and dry.

It goes down into the boxers.
Back of third base.
One strike on Bill Durkin.

Putting it back on
after on the mound.
He sets on to the rubber.
Here's the cover.
Both of them are back in time very safely.
Very close.
Johnny Gill is a very fast man.
Any kind of a hit will get him the strike.
Taking his lead on.
Right at the front and it was a strike.
(33:48):
Nearly missing in quality.
But just managed to hit it underneath the catcher's guard.
And it was back to the screen.
Two strikes on Bill Durkin.
Two strikes and no balls.
Looking around the field out there.
Where's Johnny Gill holding first base.
Very close.
If you look over there.
He's got a little bit of a pitch.
And it's another ball up into the upper deck.
(34:10):
Of the stand.
Back of third base.
The right field stand.
That's all the way over the chair.
It's almost cut out of the upper deck.
Trying to get that ball.
The ball game goes on.

Trying to get down into the boxers.

Stepping out of the rubber now.
Here's the cuddle.
The pitch.

Backing up the plate.
But he manages to hold Gill on first base.
That's where the hit is going on.
And that's that. Making out that he's thrown at the second.
Kennedy back on the mound again.
(35:16):
Hicking the dirt around.
Watching for a base.
See that Gill doesn't have the bigger lead.
He's got some rubber. Gill takes his lead.
And he throws back first.
But Johnny Gill gets back in time.
And get him off for the second out.
Here's the pitch.
And it's another foul.
A foul up onto the screen back of home plate.

So it's ball one and strike one.
Our big goal lead. The pitcher is a ball cut.
Another ball is thrown out.
Kennedy wraps it up.
One to first base.
What does he try to kill as close as he can.
I'm going to let him have any lead to get the second base.
That's possible.
And still leads.
He's going to hit it. Right out of the center field.
Hit it in the center field.
(36:00):

And it is ball two.
(36:44):
High on outside. Will have to hand it in.
It's a ball to control.
Pitching off to the land.

Kennedy watching for his time from the mound up there.
He has it. Looked at first base.
Gill takes his lead.
First very lift.
Let's lay over to Zeke Van Nuura.
And Johnny Gill has plenty of time to get back
(37:06):
and not even throw.
Watching it. Here's the pitch.
And it is low.
Ball three.
Three balls and no strikes on Alki Golan.
Center field.
The Chicago cut. Who has an average of here.
Two sixty five. Here's the pitch.
And it is strike one.
Let that one go by without even swinging at it.
Hoping it might be a ball four.
(37:28):
Going to lift it first.
That's on the rubber. Here's the pitch.
And it is ball two.
No, correction. Ball four.
And he gets the base on ball.
Putting Alki Golan on first base.
Moving Bill Turget.
Or Johnny Gill, corrections.
Johnny Gill to second base.
Second base on that.
(37:50):

And that brings Bill Cavill at a first base.
That's that.
Then Kennedy on the mound.
Getting his sign. Two men on. Two men out.
Here's the pitch.
And he swings at the high flight.
Center field.
Running in on it.
And it was.
The catch was made by Luke Thule.
(38:12):
Also a strong force.
No, Luke Cavill.
And the line if we put him out there, it forced out.
It was Luke Cavill out there.
We made the catch for the third out. Retiring with us.
So three out.
No run.
One hit. And no run.
(38:34):
Two men left on the.
And now ladies and gentlemen, at the end of the third inning.
The cut.
And the white socks are tied.
Nothing to nothing.
Nothing to nothing at the score.
That brings the white socks to bat.
First line at bat.
In the first to the fourth.
(38:56):
Here's Rip Bradford.
Left fielder and leadoff man from the corner of the white socks.
And an average to zero.
335.
Rip Bradford.
Coming at the bat. Knocking the mud out of his bike.
So the score nothing to nothing.
He's out there.
Stepping up there and big toe.
Lee is on the mound.
(39:18):
Here's the wind up for the first pitch.
And he's rolled.
And it is ball one.
Over the plate but high for ball one.
Hold on Rip Bradford.
Rip Bradford steps out of the box for the minute.
And it's back in again.
Here's that swinging wind up on the pitch.

It's a ground ball down to field cab.
Running over. Rolls at the ball.
(39:40):
And it's out of the fourth inning.

Here's the wind up for the first pitch.
And the throw. He hits it.
(40:02):
It's a base hit out to right field.
A base hit to right field.
A quick throw in holding the first.
The ball is out by.
Gabby Hartnett in zero into the plate.
When field cab ready.
This is the throw that was made from Frank Demmerie.
This is the throw that Gabby Hartnett
retrieves quick enough to hold Larry Rosenclaw
to first base. He didn't have time to advance
to second all those. A very wild throw.
(40:24):
So he didn't cost anything.
With the cops on that wild throw from Frank Demmerie
still cab ready which is backed up by Gabby Hart.
So that puts one man on base.
A single.
Putting Larry Rosenclaw on first.
With Neil Hartnett back.
First run is strike run of foul.
Foul to the left of the plate.
And then I draw a lead out there.
With that one.
(40:46):
One out.
Larry Rosenclaw on first.
Neil Hartnett back.
Here's the wind up for the next pitch.
A base.
Throw to second.

On that hit.
To stop the play.
(41:08):
I throw to Jackie Hayes.
At second.
To cut down.
For the second out.
Neil Hartnett with a hit.
Is on third base.
That brings big spinor at that.
First base is going to be White Rock.
Here's the pitch.
And it is high and inside.
It wasn't inside.
(41:30):
It's got the inside corner for strike one.
So strike one.
One strike on big spinor.
Here's the wind up for the pitch.
He hits it.
And he's double play.
Double out at second base.
Neil Hartnett.
Going down to second.
Was caught by Jackie Hayes.

(42:16):
Last half of the fourth inning.
That's coming to bat.
Bring Billy Herman.

(42:38):
And back to the pitch.
Already.
Looking up a little bit out there in the field now.
Kennedy looking around.
Billy Herman.
And that's the fourth inning.
Kennedy walking first line.
He has it. Here's the wall in the pitch.
(43:00):
And it's a high five.
He's caught center field.
Center field.
And makes the catch for the first half.
So it's one out.
Last half.
I thought I'd get the right field.
The right team out there in the field.
It was Larry Rowe's fault.
That made that catch.
And that brings to bat.
(43:22):
Black Dymarrie of bats.
Here's a windup.
And the pitch.
And it's a strike one.
Right down the heart of the place.
Black Dymarrie.
One strike.
Here's a pitch.
And it is strike two.
Right in the same place.
(43:44):
It's a strike down he's got to listen.
Come on, about that. He's got a thousand more.
Anyway, two strikes.
He's swinging, it's a hit out in the front of field.
Tyrone's coming in calling for it, and he makes the catch.
Two outs, and the last pass is for the white for the cut. Two outs.
(44:08):
That's how to hit her.
I'm hitting 298.
At the end of the season, that's here.
He's up there waiting for the first pitch.
Kennedy watching for his sign, he has his effect.
He's swinging a pitch, he hits it.
Going down the left field line,
but back into the stand for a ball, for a foul.
Strike one.
Strike one on Stanley Hacks.
(44:30):
There's a little ball thrown out by the school, and that's fine.
Kennedy roughing it up,
running on the mound, and watching for his sign.
That's under the rubber, and the throw, the pitch is low.
And outside, very low on the outside.
Strike, this school has to get out of the dirt.
Throwing a ball, one and strike one.
On Stanley Hacks.
Now the ball is going outside, for a ball too.
(44:53):
Running a counter, two balls and one strike.
On Stanley Hacks.
Here's the wind at the game,
the shuttle's the ball in front of the pitch.
That was so high, the Luke had to jump in here to catch it,
making it three balls and one strike.
Kennedy walked far off the plate,
and ran out of the game to the mound, for the school.
(45:15):
Can't seem to hold that ball in that direction.
Kicking the dirt out in front of the mound.
Back up out of the mound, got it put on the rubber,
watching for his sign.
There's a wind up on the throw, and it is strike two.
Running the count out to the end.
Bring it run out to the end, three balls and two strikes.
On Stanley Hacks with two outs.
There's the pitch, and he hits it.
(45:37):
Going out for the left field,
back into the fans for the count.
That's trying to catch it,
and steps up onto the bar, protecting the seat.
So right on his head, coming up with the ball, but he made it.
Yes, he made the catch.
Going to make Larry Rose go rip right through the hole.
Hit up on their shows.
Here's the next one,
and it is ball four.
(46:00):
And Stanley Hacks gets the base on ball.
Putting him on first base with two outs,
and the last half the fourth inning.
Two outs, bringing Gabby Hacks.
To the back, Gabby's getting an eye-to-eye on the fans,
and the one thrown out to the plate.
Just a peek on his tap, looking out there,
makes a few signs,
a little bit of crock into the very center of the...
(46:24):
wrapping on the play there.
It's about ready now.
Steps into the batter's box.
Kennedy roughs it around a little bit,
gets a better flow of hole, and he's hooked onto the rubber.
Watches first base, he throws,
and it is ball one.
Throwing inside through Gabby Hacks.
Two outs, the last half of the fourth inning,
it's going nothing to nothing.
Stanley Hacks on first base.
(46:46):
Last man on first, taking his lead off first bounce.
Kennedy's hooked on the mound, he throws back to first,
and Hacks gets back to the prime,
so there's no count.
Throw a count on Gabby Hacks,
and now it's one ball and no strike.
He throws it, and he's right through the box,
back into the center field.
First and Gabby is out.
All the third outs, retiring inside.
There's no run, no hit, and no error.
(47:12):
At the end of the fourth inning,
one man left on base.
And now on base from the walk,
that was Stanley Hacks.
He's turned to the pass,
and he walks right up the base.
Just a little bit of a kickoff,
looking out for a few times,
and a little bit of traffic.
Very Kennedy.
(47:34):
That's a nice turn.
It's about ready now.
He's got some of the batters back.
Kennedy rest up the mound a little bit,
get a better grip on him.
He's hooked onto the rubber,
grab his first base,
and it is well done.
Slow on him, try to grab the Hacks.
Two outs, the last half of the fourth inning,
it's going nothing to nothing.
Stanley Hacks on first base.
(47:55):
Last man on first, taking his lead off first bounce.
Kennedy hooked on the mound,
he throws back the first,
and Hacks gets back to the pass,
so there's no count.
No count on Gaby Hartman.
Now he's one ball on no count.
He throws the hit right through the box,
back into the center field.
He throws the first,
and Gaby is off for the third outs,
retiring the pass.
(48:16):
With no runs, no hits,
and no air.
At the end of the fourth inning,
one man left on base.
And not on base from the wall.
Now with Stanley Hacks,
so far, Kennedy has allowed only one hit,
whereas Big Del Lee has allowed two hits so far.
(48:40):
Now Del Lee is out on the mound there,
warming up with Guppy Drew.
He's got the first half of the fifth inning.
First man of the first half of the fifth inning
is the batting captain of both leagues this year,
Luke Atkinson.
Shortstop, and he's called the right one.
Del Lee wiring up.
Picking out there for his warm-up.
(49:02):
Taking a little bit of time as Gaby Hartman
is back the last time,
and that's when he takes time to get his
catching cross on.
There he comes out.
Batting down behind the plate,
as Luke Atkinson comes to bat.
Now the first half of the fifth inning
is four nothings and nothings.
There's Del Lee at first hit.
He winds up on the floor,
and it is right one.
(49:23):
Batting the inside corner.
Strike one.
One strike.
The next 30th throw, and it is
slow and inside,
missing the inside corner this time for Del Lee.
One ball and one strike.
The count on Luke Atkinson.
Shortstop.
The right stop is the cover,
and the 50th throw,
(49:44):
the exit is the boundary of the shot.
Oh, foul ball.
Foul ball down the left field line,
back to third base.
Bringing Luke Atkinson back to
resume his inning.
Gaby Hartman's next minute of the bat
is back to throw through the final mile.
Hitting against Verne Gemini
was he successfully mid-life time,
(50:05):
but he was a lack of speed
to the right first base.
Got his family high-fives for third out of second.
Luke Atkinson coming back now.
He has his guy to step into the batter's box.
So it's two strikes and one ball on Luke Atkinson.
First man at bat in the first half of the fifth inning
is four-nupting the nothing.
Two strikes and one ball.
Here's the wind-up, the cover and the pitch.
The foul is at some high and back over.
(50:27):
The loop of the second deck
stands to the right of first base.
So two strikes and one ball on Luke Atkinson.
Loving up the new ball out there,
lining up.
Here's the pitch.
And then low line inside.
Had to jump right a bit away from that one.
Here's the wind-up.
Well, the foul is at an under the screen,
(50:49):
back to the plate.
Leaving about a two-and-two.
Two balls and two strikes on Luke Atkinson.
The ball is thrown in.
Running it up a little bit.
I think they're looking around the field.
You can see everybody's in position in the middle.
The foul is coming out very, very well now.
And there's a very lift with wind going.
And it's really bright.
Here's the pitch.
And it is ball three.
(51:11):
Making a count.
Three balls and two strikes.
Running the string out at the end on Luke Atkinson.
And then a pass.
In the first half of the fifth.
Here comes the next pitch.
He draws.
And in here, ball four.
Ball four.
Luke Atkinson gets the first base.
Left the first base.
Putting a man on first with nobody out the first half of the fifth.
(51:32):
And that brings the match.

Mr. Cole with that shot.
Right hand is hitter.
Big dirty getting his hands on the mound.
Watching first base.
He draws.
He's got it.
Right out of the left field.
Luke Atkinson takes second base.
Round up the first.
That goes back.
(51:53):
He's got it here.
Make the last total third base.
So it's a single.
Our single to left field.
By Jackie Hayes.
Putting Jackie Hayes on first.
And Luke Atkinson second base.
The man on first and second.
Nobody out.
The first half of the fifth.
And the four and nothing but up.
And that brings the match.
Jimmy Dye.
Third base for the manager.
The right side.
(52:14):
Right hand is hitter.
Round up to take it.
Our lead off first and second.
Big dirty.
He gets his time from the catcher.
He's got it.
No wind up in the crowd.
He's going to punch.
Put it with a ball.
High and...
High and inside.
So right hand is hitter.
And one ball.
Arm Jimmy Dye.
Nobody out in the fifth inning.
That's round to the rubber.
Base can take their lead again.
(52:36):
Lift around.
Lift off the rubber again.
Now they take too long of a lead.
They run back.
Drag up the base.
That's your stretch.
And the pitch.
And it was higher and outside.
But ball two.
Ball two on Jimmy Dye.
First man on first and second.
(52:59):
Nobody out on the first half of the fifth inning.
Four and nothing but up.
Where's the final side?
The first base right.
Got one of them.
One of them.
And the second one is the last one.
He's taking second.
That's what the man is.
And that's your two captain.
With Jackie Hayes going to third base.
And Jimmy Dye taking second base.
When the one which was taken by third captain
(53:20):
has thrown to Big Building.
He's covered first base.
Hitter runner in the arm as it was thrown in.
So he's got the second base.
Putting runners on second and third.
Nobody out.
Taking Jackie Hayes to third base.
Jimmy Dye taking second.
On that one.
(53:41):
Might be an error on the ball.
And that brings to that.
It's true.
That's it.
Ball is ball one.
Ball two.
They're walking them on purpose.
Ball two.
Here's the next one.
Ball three.
And the next one will be.
I am wide off.
Ball four to throw the base.
So this is the chance of a double play.

Jimmy Dye on second base.
And Luke Schurl on third base.
Loading the base.
That brings to that.

Stepping up and big kill lead.
Getting his time. He has his time. Here's the wind up.
And the fish.
He swings and hits it almost in the same place.
This time it's going high and into the sand.
That's into the sand for strike two.
Our long fire.
That's strike two.
(56:52):
And Larry Rosenthal.
Got a good look at the white side.
That's two strikes.
One man out.
Five runs for him in the fifth inning.
Big kill lead rubbing up the ball.
Trying to get a time down there.
That's going to be effective.
Looking at Gabby Hartnett. Watching him.
(57:14):
He has his time. He's swinging wind up.
And the throw.
He's hit.
A lot of wasn't.
He's out.
That's the second out.

The red team is already out for the third out.
In the first half of the fifth inning.
In the last half of the fifth inning.
Coming to bat for the cut.

(57:58):
Trying to hear the first man up for the cup.
Left hand is hitter.
(58:20):
Been hitting in 262 while right here.
Trying to get Kennedy out of the mouth. Trying to hear the first man up for the cup.

(01:12:20):
One ball and one strike.
One ball and one strike.
One ball and one strike.
(01:12:50):
Billy Herman walks from the last half of the big setting.
Frank Demary is the bat.
Frank Demary is the dangerous hitter and now is his chance to do something.
The Cubs expect to get in his course to show these soft riders that this is a strictly field.
(01:13:16):
The Cubs are getting a sign from Sue and the Fitch.
One ball and one strike.
One ball and one strike.
(01:13:46):
One ball and one strike.
One ball and one strike.
One ball and one strike.
(01:14:16):
One ball and one strike.
One ball and one strike.
One ball and one strike.
(01:14:46):
One ball and one strike.
One and one is the Count on Stanley Hacks.
The Hacks get a nice right over third base out into left field.
(01:15:16):
The Hacks get a nice right over third base out into left field.
The Hacks get a nice right over third base out into left field.
The one out and man on first and second.
(01:15:46):
The Hacks are on the screen.
Hacks on first, Demary on second and Gabby Hardman is bat with strike one.
Strike one on Gabby Hardman. Kennedy watching for the sign.
Definitely a satisfactory and here's the Fitch.
(01:16:08):
Gabby follows one off to the right and is taken by Zeke Panora.
And I'm catched by Zeke Panora right over in front of the shot sucker.
So it's two out and Johnny Gill at bat.
Two out, Johnny Gill at bat.
Demary on second, Danny Hacks on first.
Johnny Gill left hand is hitter.
(01:16:30):
He's done some nice things with that bat at times. Now is his chance to show that it's still in good shape.
Kennedy however, catching a very nice game today, getting out of the tight spot.
So here we go, two out, man on first and second and the last half of the six.
Where's the soft leading five and nothing.
The Fitch and he swings for strike one.
(01:16:55):
Strike one on Johnny Gill.
Kennedy getting ready now. There's the Fitch.
Johnny falls one back here into the lower deck and there's a man.
There's some more mad scrambles with all balls out here today.
(01:17:17):
I think Fred explained a few minutes ago about a jab over here to our left.
I think a low dive right over the lower deck boxes there.
But rather than that trying to hit a ball.
There you are man on first and second. Two out, Kennedy catching and Johnny Gill at bat.
And he right in through Luke Appling and Paul the third out.
(01:17:43):
Two men left on bases. All the luscious Luke Appling had to do was just kind of bend down and it landed right next to him.
So here we go into the first half of the seventh.
Where's the right cross leading five and nothing.
Tech thousand pitching now for the cuts. Debbie Hartnett still catching and of course all the other fans both south side and north side are standing up.
(01:18:13):
Oh, oh, it's the George Government. It is the south side. Where's the north side?
The other band of boys warming up talking about their first five runs. They're getting to look awfully, awfully big for the talks.
One of the black talks in the first half of the seventh is Luke Stool.
(01:18:36):
Stool at bat.
Mr. Luke Stool who wears number 14 cleaning off his spikes.
He's still just a little bit muddy out there although the guns in excellent condition for the rain that we've had.
Any ready? There's a pitch and wow.
He gets a hold of a nice one and it goes right in. This is the arms of Henry.
(01:18:57):
The hands of Henry. I don't know what do we think this is for Paul.
Nice hands of Ellen Kennedy. She comes to bat. He's playing a nice game today.
It is close to close with a couple of Hootman Hollis. Nevertheless, that hands the Benin Kennedy who faces Tex Garden and the pitch.
(01:19:18):
And he swings for strike one. Strike one on Benin Kennedy.
And he hits one shot down to second base and he is out. They're being taken by Billy Hunter.
So it's two out now. Stool and Kennedy both went out. Stool is flying out to Benin and Kennedy to Billy Hunter.
(01:19:45):
That brings up Ripper Redcliffe the boy that's not hiding off the ball here not so long ago.
And then Stennonfield leaches putting those four runs across.
Ball two on Ripper Redcliffe.
And he gets a hold of another one. It's a sharp one but it is being taken by Johnny Gill.
(01:20:08):
So that requires a side. The first half of seventh inning.
Now we're going to see how good a guest George is. Yes, he's right. Now comes the Northside strike.
Well, well, well. Yeah, the Northside strike.
(01:20:31):
In the last half of the seventh, Bill Jurgus is the first man of that for the Cubs.
The Julian Jurgus. He plays a very nice game of shortstop.
Kennedy warming up at Lucero. Ball going out at the infield.
Ball is talking it up, right there. Leving their hands. Getting a little warm.
(01:20:53):
The sun is not very warm today and it only comes out very stingily.
Kennedy on the mound getting ready to pitch. The hitter is Bill Jurgus. Shortstop for the Cubs.
And the stretch and the pitch. And it's strike one. Strike one on Bill Jurgus.
(01:21:18):
And the strike went right through Kennedy and the man comes up with it and he is down.
That was a nice ball taken by Epling on a very, very fast bounce since the end of the manure.
Putting Bill Jurgus right out of the picture. And takes Cubs at that.
Takes Cubs and a Cubs pitcher. That's left handed. I guess the right hand is pitching a Vernon Kennedy.
(01:21:46):
Ball one on Cubs.
Ball one.
Throwing the ball out of the game. Passing a new ball and Soule is wrapping it up a little bit for Kennedy.
And back it goes with the pitching box.
Mr. Kennedy puts his mark of the train on it and the stretch and here it comes.
(01:22:12):
Ball two. Ball two and takes Cubs.
Ball three and looks to Cubs. Well, well.
Oh, I'm shy. Ball two and strike one. I'm not that one.
And takes it to hold it in the high ground. It goes out to left-shut-it and is taken by Redgate.
(01:22:39):
And looted two out.
W. Guilin is back for the Cubs. The last half of the step. Two outs.
No runs, no hits. No errors.
Kennedy is very stingy with his hits today. In fact, he's pitching a very, very swell game.
And the last half of the step.
(01:23:09):
And ball two. Not Ogie Guilin.
Ball two.
And two outs.
Strike one. Strike one and ball two on Ogie Guilin in the last half of the step.
(01:23:36):
Whoa! That one looked like a ball from here, but the unscalled hit the strike and it cut the inside corner of the blade.
And Ogie Guilin made a people attempt at that last one. He just kind of wish he was in.
It was the third strike. So it's three outs. And we're coming into the first half of the eighth inning and that score of five to nothing looks bigger and bigger all the time.
(01:23:59):
Fred would have given me just a little sip of that coffee.
Why? I guess not. Thanks. Hey, it's awfully nice of you. Coffee just gave out all of it.
Next call round the mound. Yeah, it'd be hard to have that behind the plate. The ball is tossing the ball around and he cut a field. It gave me a little warm. That was a good one, wasn't it?
(01:24:21):
What? No coffee.
The score of five to nothing for the talks coming in the first half of the eighth inning and we find a fat Larry Rosenclaw.
This boy used to do a lot of baseball for St. Paul. Do you know that, Fred?
I've seen a lot of those in the back.
(01:24:42):
I've been getting the sign and here's the pitch.
And Larry gets a hold of one. It's a short fly. Oh, oh, oh. That's a single.
And it's just...when he fooled them all that time, that was the kind of shit that Texas Ligaried dropped into left center.
I don't know what was the matter with Johnny Guilin. He seemed to hesitate and just let that ball land right in front of him and it developed into a two-bagger burlary.
(01:25:06):
And we have a man on second base with no outs. And New Halls is fat.
New Halls is fat. That was a funny one.
New Halls will try to lay down a punt now and get this man Larry over at Larry Rosenclaw over to third.
(01:25:32):
And he's trying to strike two, not strike one and ball one. I can't get over that one, Fred.
The little Texas Ligaried. Johnny Guilin just stood there and looked in and dropped in front of him and the man winds up to second base.
Larry's off and he passed on the bags anyway.
And he swung it up and it was a foul kick by the catcher. So two strikes and ball one on New Halls.
(01:26:03):
Here's the stretch and the pitch. And Mr. New Halls goes right back to the dugout.
I've heard you out there watching the third strike. Goodbye. One out.
One out. Larry Rosenclaw on second. And we have Zeke Menorio at bat with one ball.
(01:26:28):
Monty Stratton is over there in the right field full-time warming up for the socks. Zeke Menorio at bat.
Ball one on Zeke. Ball two on Zeke. Larry Rosenclaw still on second base, taking a little lead.
And it's one out and the score five to nothing for the Red Sox in the first half of the eighth inning.
(01:26:52):
Ball two and strike one on Zeke Menorio.
Stratton Menorio looks big enough to not just fall right out of the park.
And the pitch from Zeke's garden and it is right through that little corner.
And the forcing is a beautiful that one.
South side is a quarter.
And it's one out. Larry Rosenclaw in the corner and he is out.
(01:27:17):
Texas got a little something on that pole. They're breaking very sharply over the outside corner.
And they're still good. So it's now two out and you got to look at that.
And the lead is at both leagues in batting this year.
Larry Rosenclaw on second.
Another one of those underhanded plants from McGarden.
(01:27:39):
Ball four one on Luke Ebbling.
And Luke gets a hold of one and follows it out to the right almost to the both ends.
Right one and ball one on Luke Ebbling.
Two out. Larry Rosenclaw on second.
And two out and five to nothing for the white socks.
(01:28:00):
Next garden. Pitching now replacing Bill Lee who started the game.
And it is ball two and strike one.
Ball two and strike one. I'll make it in.
That was just lobbed over. A very slow ball.
(01:28:24):
And it's eight to play.
Thanks.
Rubbing the rod and dragging the ball and getting ready to ball three and strike one on Luke Ebbling.
And it's strike two.
Well it's just got to be good. One way or the other.
Larry Rosenclaw on second.
And two out.
Ball four on Luke Sewell.
(01:28:47):
I mean Luke Ebbling. What am I talking about Luke Sewell?
Jackie Hayes second base.
The socks are bad.
And it's ball one.
Jackie Hayes has a rather big stand.
And the white one is left leg stuck way out in front of the right.
(01:29:09):
This is only going to wail a little bit out of it.
Strike one and ball one on Jackie Hayes.
Larry Rosenclaw still on second base.
And Luke Ebbling on first.
And he's going to go for it by virtual ball one.
Man on first and second.
Score five to nothing.
First half lead, Vinny.
Score five to nothing.
(01:29:30):
The socks.
The stretch and the pitch.
And he gets a hold of one and right smack that in Vinny Herman's mitt.
Five leads from Man on first and second.
Three out.
No runs. No hits.
No errors.
Oh, I'll take a part. Right one hand. I'll put that.
(01:29:54):
Now we're going to the last half of the eighth inning with the top count to pass.
With Bill Cabaretta.
Bill Cabaretta, first base has had that.
Kennedy pitching a very nice ball game on Saturday.
And so is Tex Cobb.
(01:30:19):
Oh, Fred Pollard tells me that Kennedy's only allowed four hits.
Four hits in the ball game is not bad.
With a lead of five to nothing, he's in a very nice spot.
Cabaretta is back.
Kennedy getting his time for Lucille.
Cabaretta batting left-handed, of course.
(01:30:40):
And here is the pitch.
And Bill takes a hold of one and plans it right out here.
The mitt of our friend, Bill Hart.
So it's one out.
And I said, Paul, the field just ran about 20 feet.
Took it for the first out.
One out.
(01:31:01):
And Billy Herman at bat.
Billy Herman right-handed hit it.
And there it is.
And it is strike one.
Right over the heart of the plate.
All one.
All one on strike one.
(01:31:22):
On Billy Herman.
That's half of the eighth inning.
And Billy takes a wicked swing at that one,
but fouled it out to the left.
And it's struck by manager Charlie Grimm,
who is now on third base coaching.
(01:31:43):
The correctness of care, that's a great change.
There's the pitch.
Strike one on Demary.
Out over the heart of the plate, little to the outside.
And the pitch.
Strike two, right in the same place.
Cut that plate, just a little to the outside,
then about waist high.
(01:32:05):
All one.
Ball one on strike two on Frank Demary.
Frank digging in with his strikes there to get a foot hold.
As much as to say, well, boys, look out for this one.
Yeah.
Give me a good foot hold.
Oh, he's digging out.
He found something.
(01:32:26):
Little rock, he's in his way.
Well, that probably helped matters.
I'm probably going to get a hold of this one.
Demary at bat.
Two strikes and ball one.
And the booze is set up.
Can't be completely crossing that time.
Burned in a fast burn.
Ball two on strike two on Frank Demary.
The pitch.
(01:32:49):
He's got a little bit of a backhand there.
He's got a little bit of a backhand there.
Burned in a fast burn.
Ball three.
Now we see a Frank by digging that little rock out of there.
(01:33:12):
He did himself any good.
Three and two now.
Two out and the pitch.
And he wails one.
Now, went foul.
Looks fair for a while, but went foul in the extreme.
End of the left field boxers.
Almost out to the wall.
But still, two strikes and three balls on Frank Demary.
(01:33:37):
Last half of the eighth inning.
He's not leading the five.
The score of five looks pretty big, doesn't it, Freddie?
And the pitch.
And he gets a hold of one and right back down into Billy Herman Smith.
Five, eight and a half in first and second.
(01:33:58):
Three out.
No run.
No hit.
No error.
Oh, I think he's right in front of one hit.
I looked at that.
Now we go into the first inning.
Last half of the eighth inning was the club's time to pass.
The first base was half past.
(01:34:23):
Kennedy pitching a very nice ball game, not fair to be.
And so is Tex Brown.
Old Frank Muller tells me that Kennedy's only allowed four hits.
Four hits in the ball game is not bad.
With a lead of five to nothing, he's in a very nice spot.
(01:34:47):
Got a letter of defense.
Kennedy getting his time to loose a little.
Got a letter of batting left-handers across.
And here is the pitch.
And Bill makes a hold of one and plans it right out into the nip of our friend, Jill Hart.
So it's one out.
Nice hit for all the duels.
Ran about 20 feet.
(01:35:09):
Took it for the first out.
One out.
And Billy Herman at bat.
Billy Herman right-handed hit it.
Kennedy gets the time and there it is.
And it is strike one.
Right over the heart of the plate.
(01:35:35):
All one strike one.
That's out of the evening.
And Billy takes a wicket swing at that one, but fouled it out to the left.
Where it was picked up by a manager Charlie Grimm, who is now on third base coaching.
(01:35:59):
Just a red foot.
Take care of that.
That's a great change.
And the pitch.
Strike one on Demary.
Out over the heart of the plate.
Little to the outside.
And the pitch.
Strike two right in the same place.
Cut that plate just a little to the outside, then the bat weighs high.
(01:36:21):
All one.
All one and strike two on Frank Demary.
Frank digging in with his strike there to get a foothold.
I just do say, well boys, look out for this one.
He's getting me a good foothold.
Oh, he's digging in.
He found something.
(01:36:43):
Little rock was in his way.
Well, that would have helped.
I'm glad we get a hold of this one.
Demary at bat.
Two strikes and ball one.
He crossed about that time by throwing a very, very slow ball and Frank almost broke his back.
And bounced it.
Two outs.
Two strikes and ball one.
(01:37:04):
And the boos have set up.
He completely crossed it that time.
Burnt in a fast one.
Four, ball two.
Ball two and strike two on Frank Demary.
A pitch.
Ball three.
(01:37:27):
Well, now we see a strike by digging that little rock out of there.
Didn't stop any good.
Three and two now.
Two outs and the pitch.
And he wails one.
Now went foul.
Look there for a while, but went foul.
And the extreme end of the left field box is almost out to the wall.
(01:37:48):
But still two strikes and three balls on Frank Demary.
Last half of the eighth inning.
Stock leading five.
Four and five.
Looks pretty big, doesn't it, Freddie?
And the pitch.
Four and four.
(01:38:09):
Frank Demary walks.
That life on a rather a poor throw by Kennedy, which almost hit the ground before reaching the plate.
That brings up Stanley Hacks, where it's based.
Stan Hacks, a left hand hitter.
And Kennedy getting his time.
And he burns the first one in.
And it is ball one.
(01:38:33):
Ball one on Stan Hacks.
Kennedy watching, getting his time on the river.
The stretch and the pitch.
Strike one.
Strike one and ball one.
(01:38:54):
Strike two.
Who's good over on that one?
It seemed a little low, but nevertheless the upstone is very seasoned.
And it's strike two and ball one.
Stanley Hacks, two outs.
Throw runs.
And the stock's leading five and up.
Stan got a hold of one of them.
(01:39:15):
Slow founder, out the second.
And the first stand, he is out.
And so I went to Jackie A's, the two and out.
That's where I say, Steve Madura.
Throw, speeding, Stan Hacks, five, out of four.
So it is three outs.
Stock's come to bat in there.
First half of the ninth inning.
And again we repeat that score of five looks very, very, very big right now.
(01:39:51):
Thanks, Tarzan.
And Gabby Hartnett oneing up.
Wind's blowing up here.
And the coach's out here today and throws sweaters and blankets.
Is that ready now?
Jimmy Dyson is batting for the stocks in there.
(01:40:13):
First half of the ninth inning.
Score of five and nothing in favor of the stocks.
Tarzan pitching.
Strike one on Jimmy Dyson.
Strike one on Jimmy Dyson, a foot shool.
And he's ready to come to bat.
Strike two.
Jimmy didn't like that very well.
(01:40:36):
Strike two, no bow.
And Jimmy Dyson just swung and struck out and had to knock the empire as he goes over to duck out.
And he found that second strike.
So it's one out, nobody on.
And the first half of the ninth inning.
Score of five and nothing in favor of the stocks.
(01:40:57):
Tarzan pitching.
And two went to punt, but the ball went behind him over to the duck-dugout to our left.
Go in strike one.
Tarzan loose shool.
Tarzan using the rod and bag, the stretch and the pitch.
(01:41:18):
Ball one.
And one and strike one.
And Luke gets a hold of one and out into left center.
Our left center, rather, which was taken by Augie Gillan.
So it's out, two out, no one.
(01:41:41):
And Kennedy coming to bat.
Kennedy gets a very nice pass.
It's only about four years, all day today.
And on those days, Mr. Kennedy was playing.
Kennedy at bat, two out.
And he takes a cut at the first ball, which is a foul-tip back against the stand.
The blue ball being thrown in.
(01:42:02):
Tarzan gets the sign and the pitch.
Ball one and strike one.
Two outs.
And the first half of the ninth inning, the white dog leading five to nothing.
And Mr. Kennedy took a wild swing at bat one, which developed into strike two.
(01:42:28):
Strike two on Kennedy.
Ball one, the ball two at it.
Ball two and strike two on Kennedy.
Two outs.
And the third foul of the batter's box, and out of clean off his strike.
He's back again.
Ready to go.
Tarzan getting a time, the stretch, and here's the pitch.
(01:42:51):
Get the hole to one and fouls it back to our left.
Up on the top deck of the stand.
Strike two and ball two.
And Kennedy, the box, but to the bat.
And he's back down.
Next foul, from Burnham.
Nice one in there on the last strike, it seems.
(01:43:12):
They just kind of wobble a bit and then, boom, disappear.
And the gentlemen go right back to the dugout.
Third three out.
And the first half of the ninth inning, the Cubs coming to bat for their last chance.
They're sure about nothing for the talk.
So now Fred, I think you've had enough, Fred.
You have some air spread power, ladies and gentlemen.
Back at George Watson.
How about the last half of the ninth inning, the Cubs?
(01:43:35):
And then Kennedy on the mound, with the school behind the bat, warming up out there.
Kennedy warming up with a score of standing back to nothing in favor of the
South side to the right shot.
Nothing for the North side to the right shot.
The last half of the ninth inning, the Cubs.
Last one for the Cubs.
They come to bat with the...
They've got the hot, they've got the hot, they've got the first man of bat.
(01:43:57):
They have to slowly up the plate as Kennedy completely warmed up to the north and through.
They're backing it up with a little bit of energy.
Kennedy must be around out there on the mound a little bit.
To a fanciful set up.
So, he's watching for time to make the first pitch to Gabby Hudson.
Here's a wind up in the throw.
Gabby's trying to make the half the count better.
(01:44:19):
He's going down, foul, he's dug out, and looks to make the catch.
There's the first half.
One out of the ninth inning.
One out of the ninth inning for the Cubs.
That's the third one for the Cubs coming in.
That's five run, we've looked bigger and bigger.
One out, the green, Johnny Gilles to bat.
Johnny Gilles, left field up in the Cubs, the left hand hitter.
(01:44:40):
Standing up there at the plate now.
Ready to take his.
John has bat.
As Ren Kennedy stands around the mound watching for his time on the move too.
Doesn't like that one.
Checked out that side.
Now he has one that he likes.
There's a wind up in the pitch.
Again, he lines the second allowed in to right center.
Rolls foul.
He's going down for it on his way to second.
The bats throw in.
Coming in from right field from Newell-Hart.
(01:45:02):
He rolls on standing up that second base.
That's that there.
By Johnny Gilles putting him on second base with one man out.
The last half of the ninth inning.
That brings the bats.
They all jerk it.
Four stops, normal Cubs, right hand hitter.
That's the bats, one man out.
Johnny Gilles on second base.
(01:45:23):
Ren Kennedy pitching now.
Side, here's the pitch.
And it's a hit.
Well, it is a hit though.
He'll have to go back and make the catch.
And after the catch, Johnny Gilles goes to third base.
Only a man on third with two offs.
(01:45:44):
Which brings the bats.
And hitting four check carbon.
Oday, Oday batting for carbon.
Johnny Gilles on third base.
Two men out.
Oday batting for carbon.
Left handed hitter, now for hitter.
(01:46:05):
Batting up track.
Ren Kennedy looking over third base.
The whole Johnny Gilles is close to the chance.
He starts to run from scoring.
Here's the catch for a cutout.
Here's the pitch.
And it's right down the heart of the plate.
Better high for strike one.
One strike on Oday.
Oday batting for tech call.
Here's the pitch.
And it is strike two.
(01:46:27):
While also I found a high to play broad to knee.
Strike two on Oday.
Two outs.
And it is a foul.
He's won about once.
Bowled about in the right field line over to the white stock dugout.
Maybe in the cutout two strikes on Oday.

Batting for carbon.
The last half of the night,
the white stock leaving five to nothing.
Stand on third base.
Johnny Gilles on third base.
Ren Kennedy winding up.
Here's the pitch.
And it's right down the left field line.
Give me a nice coming in to pick it up.
The plan thrown in first.

Once again, to the C-4 of the Sox, they have a mistake with the pole for the jam.
The official scoring is 5 runs, well the White Sox, 5 runs, 6 hits, and 1 error.
To the Cups, 1 run, 5 hits, and 1 error.
(01:49:22):
The time of the game this afternoon was an hour, 1 hour and 37 minutes.
That can go to the afternoon, 4 game ladies and gentlemen. So this is the start of our speaking
and on behalf of George Watson and George, we take you good afternoon and return to the studio.
The game makers on Cornflake, Steve Sinclair, Ben Halvot, have been constantly and good people to come to Cornflake.
(01:49:53):
You're joining with over 13 million people in their enjoyment of Kellogg's Cornflake.
But leadership is a great source of pride for the Kellogg company.
And each year at this time, when everyone is looking ahead, they again,
themselves, that Kellogg's Cornflake shall continue to be today's big fan.
Some morning soon, try Kellogg's Cornflake that take Europe as the world's largest record-staker.
(01:50:18):
Kellogg's Cornflake, made and guaranteed by the Kellogg company of Saddle Creek, Michigan.
And now, here's Halvot. Good evening ladies and gentlemen.
Well, we got our city series underway today, didn't we?
And the White Stock fans are very happy tonight because with Vern Kennedy pitching great ball,
the White Stock beat the Cups 5-1.
(01:50:39):
They made 5 runs, 6 hits, 1 error, which of 1 run, 4 hits, 1 error.
The battery for the White Stock is Kennedy and Sewell with a couple of leads, Carlton and Hartnag.
Down in New York, however, the second World Series game is postponed on account of wind,
and bad weather, and they hope to resume down there tomorrow.
(01:51:00):
Now, before I go into a little chat about things, of course you might be interested in knowing along with the other people,
that's on Monday evening, we're going to name the ball player that won that big on the accident.
On the evening, and this show has broadcast, they're going to have that.
And we hope to announce the main prize winners.
Well, they'll also be announced next week. We've got to try to announce them on Monday night too.
(01:51:25):
But whether we can or not is another question. That might be a couple of days after that because everybody's getting a chance.
But people might be interested in knowing that every single person who voted in this contest is going to receive by mail
a complete list of all the prize winners. So there won't be any doubt about it.
But of course we'll announce them first on this program.
But the winner, the player, winning the sedan will be announced Monday night.
(01:51:50):
The fan winning the sedan and the other main prizes will come a little bit later.
How about that? Do you think it's going to wait that long?
I think so, Al. But we've been waiting. It'll awfully act as we're less than two.
Before I get into the City Series discussion,
the DNA in today's game of the World Series may be just the thing the Giants have needed.
No Hubble pitched the game that was expected yesterday and finished just three.
(01:52:14):
The Yankees look rather tame against Hubble. That doesn't mean that he can tame them every time he walks off.
But he has a very good chance of doing just about that because right at the present time Hubble is by far the greatest pitcher in baseball today.
By losing out of today's game and having to wait over the greatest second game of the series,
it means that Hubble can come back in the third game of the series with two full days of rest.
(01:52:37):
The third game was played on Saturday in that case instead of on Friday.
And with those two days back of him, Hubble should be ready to go right in again.
Now of course the Schumacher should stop the Yankee tomorrow and give the Giants a two to nothing lead.
In games they might decide to rest, have one more day and pitch him in the fourth game.
But I don't know, unless the Giants do have that edge, even if they do,
(01:52:59):
I'm almost sure that Hubs is going to come back to rest in the third game.
Then he'll be ready for a sixth game with two more days of rest if the sixth game is the deciding game of the series.
But if the sixth game isn't the deciding game, then he can take three full days of rest and be ready for that number seven.
Boy, if you know what that means, to be able to have that kind of a pitch, you're ready to win there three times in a seven game series.
(01:53:23):
For instance, one other day of rain would just about make it too bad because if Hubble can deliver three games,
they might be able to take one other up between the rest of them and the Yankees, all in all, might have such a sub-time that it'd be just too bad.
However, don't forget, the Yankee showing yesterday isn't the showing that they're allowed to make it almost any time during the rest of the series.
(01:53:44):
For the simple reason that they have too much power and too much experience.
The Yankee 35 series, the one that you won that first game and also the fifth.
If there's been a day of rain in there, you might have come back in the fourth game and turned the tide of battle because the series was very close to the glove.
So you can't tell the day like today may be the big break, the turning point in the entire series.
(01:54:07):
Now for that city series game here in Chicago, many people weren't able to see it.
And for that reason, I think I'll run right through the line-ups and what happened in the game so that the fans right now will know play by play with some comment just what it was.
The line-up for this ball game for the White Stocks, we had Radcliffe and Lett, Rosenball Center, Hans Wright, Renoura first, Appling short, Hayes second, Dike's third, Sewell-Catching, Kennedy-Pitches.
(01:54:35):
For the Cubs-Galand Center, Gevorettah first, Herman second, Gemery Wright, Hartz-Serd, Hartnett-Shawking, Yale-Lepth, Jurgers-Short and Glee, Pitching.
The umpires were far behind the plate, Armsy at first, Stewart at second, and McGowan at third.
(01:54:56):
Incidentally, it was a day without a squaw. Everybody was happy and the umpires had to call some very close ones at the plate,
although not more than one or two close ones on the pages, and it was well conducted in a very bad time.
In the first inning, Radcliffe went out, Gevorettah unassisted on the going after the first pitch.
Rosenball was called out on strike and half bounced out by way of Jurgers.
(01:55:19):
In the first half of the first inning, the landfly to Rosenball, Gevorettah fly to Radcliffe, Herman bounced out to Jimmy Dike.
Nothing across in both those, no runs, no hits, no errors, nobody left on date.
Second inning was the same way as far as that's concerned.
Vanuera hit a long fly to Finnerfield, which was pulled in by the land, Affling, fly to Gemery,
(01:55:42):
and Hayes also sent a rather ordinary fly out to Gemery for the third out.
In the second half of the second inning, Gemery hit a short fly back at second base, which Jackie Hayes went back to pull down.
The first inning had bounced out by way of the pitcher, and Hardnett hit a line drive to right field, but it was easy as it turned out for Mule Haak.
The third inning for the White Shots saw the first hit of the game.
Dike, the first man up, took a strike at the first pitch, and lined it sharply into right field for a base hit.
(01:56:07):
Two while over hit one right back at Lee, who made a one-handed stab at the ball on the hop with his glove man.
Two to Jurgers at second, and the relay throw to Kaverada turned into double play.
Kennedy then bounced out by way of Haak, and it was no run, one hit in the first half of the third inning.
In the coming half of the third inning, Gio hit a throw-bounder down the third base line, and it stopped the head and the spot tipped about a third of the way down there.
(01:56:30):
Too far in for Dike to get. Kennedy went over, and on that rather wobbly knee that he had trouble with all through the last few weeks,
and the soft serve, the serve was in marvelous condition considering the rain, but it was a little soft.
He couldn't get a hold of that ball in time to throw the first hit, but the cup was the first hit.
Jurgers then struck out. Lee got a hold of one pretty good, but Rosenthal dashed into left center to make the catch,
(01:56:53):
and the land lost, but with runners on first and second, and two outs, Kaverada hit a short fly into left field, which was easy for Appling.
No runs, one hit, and two men left on base.
Fourth inning for the White Dot, Radley bounced off, also towards first base again, and was out when Kaverada got the ball and threw the lead cover.
Rosenthal single to right, House Force, Golden ball, and Burnola force, the hot play going second to short, and the Burnola play just the opposite.
(01:57:20):
And the cover half after the shot had no runs, one hit, and one left set happening.
Simmons popped out to Jackie Hays, then when he flyed out to Rosenthal, I'd walk, but Hartnett was thrown out by Hays.
No runs, no hits, and one left.
Fifth inning was the beginning, and there was a bad break in the inning, although the way it turned out, it wouldn't have made any difference the way Kennedy was pitching that ball game.
(01:57:43):
Appling opened with a walk, and Hays lined the first pitch into left field for a base hit, Appling stopping at second, then Jackie Hays,
going just as he was, a lot of part of the team, and making those tough base hits.
Sikes after missing one effort to front, Sids lay down in front towards first base, Kaverada came in and running almost into the run and grabbed the ball.
I seemed upsetting for a moment because he hesitated, and then when he did throw the first,
(01:58:06):
and then already there and making a good target for him, instead of throwing the ball just to the left of the runner and getting it to Herman,
or even throwing it over his shoulder, he hit Sikes in the elbow, the ball came into center field, and while it was a sacrifice, it also was an error.
One run scored, and the other runners went to second and third.
Sturl was walked down to the surface to spill the bases, and Kennedy came to bat, and the infield played halfway instead of all the way in,
(01:58:29):
playing for the double play and reasonably sure of getting it, there are hoping reasons to hope for it.
But Kennedy topped one, and they went so slowly towards Jurgis that by the time Bill dashed in to grab it,
he didn't have a chance to make a play at the plate, and had to throw the man out of first allowing another run to score.
That sets the stage for that grand little fellow that's caused so much excitement all year.
Rip Ratcliffe, who lined one into the right field, feet for a home run.
(01:58:52):
It was not an easy out like he was the first two times, but it was a home run all the way, scoring Dyches and Sula ahead of him,
and that was the ball game.
Dogen Fallon, half-foot out, with five runs, two hits, and one error.
Come half, he'll fly it out to short, Jurgis is out, pitch it to first, Lillard batted for Lee and Watt.
The landline to single to right center, Lillard going to third, and Cavalry had a slide out to the cage for the third out.
(01:59:17):
No runs, one hit and two men left on base.
Stick to the right shot, Carlton went in to pitch for the Cubs, and the Vanuara Watt.
Hardnett called for a pitch out on hit and run, as Appling tore for, came to play together, and Vanuara tore for second,
and Vanuara was out easily on the throw to Jurgis.
Appling then came through with a single past second base, and just to show that it could be done, he stole second.
(01:59:40):
A's was then called out on strikes, and Dyches struck out, which meant the Cowboys really took things in his own hands.
No runs, one hit, one man left on base.
Stick to the right for the Cubs, Silly Herman opens with a walk.
A Demery four, Sherman from Vanuara to Appling.
Hack then singles to left, Demery stopping at second.
Hardnett followed out to Vanuara, and Gil, hitting a ball pretty hard, hit it right into Appling's hands for the third out.
(02:00:03):
No runs, one hit, two men left.
Devon's innings for the White Sox, two fly to right, Kennedy was out short to first, and Radcliffe fly to left.
Devon's innings for the Cubs, Appling made a nice pick up, while Jurgis' subbounder near second, and threw him out,
and Carlton's left to left, and Gillan struck out. No runs.
A's innings for the White Sox, Rose and Paul hit a little loopy fly to left,
(02:00:25):
but Gil slipped coming into fielded and a fell for a two base hit.
Then again Carlton got checked, A's was called out on strikes, Vanuara struck out, Appling walked,
but Hayes lined one right into Billy Herman's hands for a hard hit ball, but an easy out, no runs, one hit.
A's innings for the Cubs, Cavalry out of line to right, Herman was out second to first, Demery walked,
Hayes also threw out, and no runs.
(02:00:48):
A's innings for the White Sox, Dyches struck out, two will fly to center, and Kennedy struck out.
A's innings for the Cubs, Hardnett followed up to catcher, they really had to get him stopped there.
Gill doubled the right, Jurgis hit a long fly to right center, which was gathered in by Haas, Gill going to third after catch.
Well, Bayes added for Carlton, hit a slow roller down the third base line.
Dyches came in, tried to field it to his right, so it was in better position to throw, the ball took a low enough,
(02:01:13):
and all Jim could do was knock it down, he was charged with an error, and the Cubs only run scores.
And then Gillan ended it with a fly to short left, which Appling was best to get.
One run, one hit, one error, and one man left on base.
They hit the total, the White Sox got five runs, picked it one error and four left,
he cut one run, four hits, one error, and nine men left on base.
(02:01:34):
They hit, off Kennedy, four and nine innings.
Off Lee, four and five innings, off Carlton, two and four innings.
Struck out by Kennedy, two by Lee, one, and by Carlton, six.
He really went in there and breezed and passed the ball.
Well, bases on balls, off Kennedy, five, off Lee, two, and off Carlton, two.
Two base hit, Rosy, and Gill.
(02:01:57):
Home runs, Radkiff, runs out again, Radkiff, three, Kennedy, one.
Burned runs, off Lee, four.
Winning pitcher, Kennedy, losing pitcher, Lee.
Time of the game was one hour and 37 minutes.
The batting averages tonight after the opening game,
these Rosenthal, half-ling, leading the shot-slip with a percentage of 500 feet.
(02:02:25):
And followed by Dijkers, 3-30 feet, and Radkiff and Hayes, 2-50 feet.
That's all for now, as far as I'm concerned.
And Fort, I believe you have something to say.
Yes, Hal.
And listen, do you like cheerful pears, one that can't beat me?
Crisp, frunky, Kellogg's cornflakes.
Imagine a bowl full now, a golden mountain of big, brown flakes in the middle
of a rich ivory lake of filter cream topped off with a snow cap of sugar,
(02:02:49):
if you like this sweet, little boy.
Doesn't it make you feel hungry?
You love the extra crispness that all Kellogg's cereal has.
Strike a bowl full now without wake Kellogg's cornflakes for supper.
It's an ideal evening meal for growing boys and girls, expert goldfish.
And they taste as good at night as in the morning.
If you don't happen to have a package on hand now, get one from your grocery tomorrow.
(02:03:11):
Be sure to look for Kellogg's cornflakes.
