1968 10-05 Cardinals at Tigers World Series Game 3

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:07):
The Detroit baseball fans here, as well as all baseball
fans around the country, get an additional thrill out of
the presence of an outstanding former Tiger player, Charlie gerring Ger,
who had the pleasure of throwing out the first ball
to catcher Bill Prehan of the Tigers. He he was
the former infidder. I know that you appreciated the great
news of Garners. I certainly did Jack Daggle.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
The Tiger's taking the field this game is about right
at his start. I had the pleasure of playing against Charlie.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
Gene a few times at Frank Finning, and what a
ball player he was. Let's kip over these banning orders
quickly once again for you all the Cardinals at rock
Blood and maris So, Peta McCarver and Shannon Aavier, Maxville
and Washburn, and fore the Tigers mccauliffe, Stanley and Kaylin, Cash,
Horton and northromk Frean, Wert and Wilson. The Nigers have

(00:58):
taken the field defensive. They have a battery of Earl
Wilson and Bill Frehand. Don Work is at third base,
Mickey Stanley is at short looking up checking the sun
right now, Dick mccalloff at second base and Norm Cash
at first. Around the outfield Willie Wharton and left. The
center fielder is Jim Northbrook and the right fielder is
Alf Kayli. Joe Schultz is at third base doing the

(01:19):
coaching for the Cardinals, and Dick Sissler is at first.
The umpires San Landis of the National League is working
behind the plate at first base, Bill Kinneman of the
American League, Doug Harvey of the National League at second base,
and Bill Heller at third base. He's from the American League.
Along the left field fowl line, Tom Gorman, he worked
the plate in the opening game of the series, and

(01:41):
Jim Hanachek of the American League is in the right
field corner. And we're all set for the afternoon of baseball.
In the third game off the nineteen sixty eight World Series,
took an unofficial poll before the game. Bewe in talking
to most everybody I could, and I propose that the
team that won this game would win the World Series.
And now it's saying about seventy percent of the people said, yes,

(02:03):
how about you. I kind of believe that.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
Of course, the Cardinals still have one thing going to
fuming Bob Gibson that I don't believe he can win
four games, and I believe that Danny McLean, you's got
to try.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
To do something about that. And that's the game tomorrow.
That's the long game tomorrow. We're planning Gibson. Right now,
we have lash Burn and Wilson serious tied to the
game of piece and louke Brock's stumping into the batter's
box to let it off. There's been a little pure
are about lou Brock's pace stealing with regard to the
game situation, and there are some quotes in the Detroit

(02:34):
papers today about Louis being a showboat. He lamps it off,
he's let him saying what they want. So we've got
something going, as we usually do during these fall classics. Well,
of course, Jack, the game has changed considerably.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
I can remember when I was playing, if you were
six runs ahead or six runs behind, you would never.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
Think of stealing. And if you did steal, the next
time you came up to that plate, you may be
kind of low bridge by the pitchers.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
But I cannot uh send of the games anything against
lou Brock because I have to agree with him. He
and a fellow the name of Wills have Boy of
the name of Bert Kampania's have made.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
A lot of money with their legs. And I don't
blame my mind run anytime I could. Lou Brock in
the batter's box. He's a left handed batter. The third baseman,
Don Work comes in about find steps in front of
the back Wilson the right hand or end of the
wind up, and is his first picture of the ball game,
and it's low and the dirt and boxing back to
the screen ball one. I don't care who you are
when in your first world series. No matter who you are,

(03:30):
it's got to get to you a little bit. You
have to have a few butterflies. That first pitch, though
Wilson was just a little bit low. The outfield shallows
straight away, and here's the pitch to lou Brock, and
Lou takes the low for ball too. I'm surprised if
the shalloon is of Jim Northrook and center Bill, can
you go back to the ball in well be it?
Yes he can. I haven't seen Jim play too much

(03:50):
in center Bill. I've seen the fellow at Shark Stop
play there. He can go back on it with.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
The best of them.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Two balls, no strikes to count and the next one
on the way to Brock, and he takes the ball
high and away, and that's Paul free and low. Brock
might be on his way to first base. Wilson with
the free Notunton conn and the lead off hitter baton
Marris will follow. In the setting we just started the
ball game from Tiger Stadium in Detroit. Wilson throws a strike.
He caught m'conner after thee Rock started down the first base.

(04:18):
He thought the ball was out of the strike song
It's three and one time is called by the third
base umpire Bill Heller, whose brother, by the way, is
the catch. Here's ball four as of the splitfall violation
is called by the third base umpire Bill Haller. He

(04:39):
makes it ball four because Earl Wilson touched his fingers
to his mouth and down goes lou Brock the first
base and now Bill Haller goes into the Detroit tugout.
He gets into it with some of the Tiger players
and Rock is on with a walk as a result
of Earl Wilson putting his fingers to the mouth while
he was on the pitch.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Well, I'm sure Jack that most of the fans listening
to the ball game know the rule, but in case
they don't, will.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
Explain it to them.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
You may go to your mouth with your fingers if
you're off the pitcher circle. But evidently Earl Wilson one
face mouth while standing on.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
The mound, and that's an automatic ball. Don't there's something
they'll be writing about after the ball game. Here's correct, Blood,
what two out of seven in the series thus far,
Brocca league doesn't go wall one eye, arm Cash is holding.
Arm Cash is holding against Lou Brock, who's already stolen
three bases in the ballgame. Altfield playing playing Flood to

(05:35):
pull just a bit, I'll lead by Brock. He's not going.
The pitch is high and away, and that's ball two.
It was hard to tell if that was a pitch
out or not. I think it was from the way
Bill Freehand was moving, Jack, I was thinking that on
both The picture looks to me like the assistant little
bit hie outside. Bill Freehand woning to get a good
shot at rocket. He does go. Rock's going the pets

(05:56):
one eye. I know pearl by Freehand put handle the
picks with ball three. The Brock feels his fourth base
of the series.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
He said, a series record last year.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Wife's wiping seven. We're only in the third game. Most
folks projected.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
This will go six and seven, and there's no telling how.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
Many Brock will steal. He's at second with nobody out
on a pree nothing count on Blood. Mary's waiting to
hit next. Wilson has thrown only one strike. The right
hander checks the runner in fires and it's a strike called,
and it's straight one. Blood like Rocks started down the
first base, but is called back by the plate on
Firelanders Jacket's amazing how much a fellow like rock An

(06:36):
upset a ball clut. He had Earl Wilson.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
He had Bill free in worrying about him stealing it
pitched out.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
He got himself in a hole. It also helps the
hitter court. You have to get the fast ball to
hit the three to one pitch coming. Blood takes said
low ball four, and Wilson has walked the first two.
Then to place him in the ball game, and it
brings up Rodier Marretz. He's looking for his first hit
in the World Series. He's played only one game. He's
all for three.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
When he hit the record breaking sixty one on runs.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
He hit six of them here in Tiger Stadium with
the friendly right field power line only three twenty five,
with the seats and right two on nobody off first inning,
rocks at second and flooded first. They play Marius to
pull just a bit. They give him the left field corner.
Wilson from the belt fires one on file and Maras

(07:26):
had a good cut and filed back strike one. Well,
you can see how these Cardinals play. Wilson walks, rocked,
walks flood. You would think that Roger Maris.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
May be taking that first pitch and see if Wilson
maybe have a little control problem.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
But he chopped down that first pitch. He was trying
to make it three nothings. He waits left handed batter, marits,
Wilson leaning in, gets the sign from premat rock and
flood lead away and the pitch coming. Maris takes it
high and away way high way outside wall one one
and one. The lights have been turned down here at
Tiger Stadium, not that it's that dark now, but in

(08:01):
anticipation of it being dark at the close of the game,
and it will also be dark for one of these
two teams, they'll be down two games to one. Mara's waiting,
Wilson ready, Rockers short leave, Maris swings hits a fall
off the end of the bat, leave for a pitch
long away, and now Wilson's ahead of a hitter for
the first time. Wilson on the first two hitters, he

(08:24):
was keeping the ball up. Wilson is not a high
ball pitcher. He must keep the ball down. His ball's safe.
So whenever he's coming up with the ball, he's in trouble.
And he'd liked the double play ball now and that
sinker pitcher is Rockets second flood at first is nobody
out win the first hunning of the ball game, one
ball too strikes the count to merits o. Wilson is ready,

(08:46):
Andy Faires and it's a little bit outside. It's ball two.
And Wilson thought he might have had him, but Landaz
wouldn't give him the call. It's two and two. Waiting
in the on deck circle is Orlando Sebada god Schultz
coaching a third hollering in encouragement to Marius was in
his final season of baseball. Wilson ready again. The two

(09:08):
to two pitch coming. Maris takes ball three in the
dirt and a punk count of three and two. Almarus
doesn't strike out too often, particularly against a right handed pitcher,
and with brocket second, I imagine they'll be going on
a three two pitch with nobody out. What do you think, Walt,
You just call the shot at Marius, and you know
better than I do that he does not strike out.
If he gets a piece of the ball. I'm sure

(09:28):
that red.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
C and D s will be sending and there with
a fellow like Rock on second and Flood on first.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
I don't think you have to hesitate too much. Wilson
walked the first two men and has a three two
count on Roger Merricks. The runners lead away. Wilson steps
off the rubber as Mickey Stanley, the shortstop, gets in
behind Brock with there's no crow ready again. The runners
are going. Maris swings, hits it, fall and we'll do

(09:56):
it again. The ball bounces past six, a slurt first
base and the plate on fire Orlanda sends a new
one to the map. Rock returns the second and flood
the birds. Gray Washburn is not the kind of a
pitcher whom you would expect to throw a shutout when
he goes out there, and so he would like very
much to get some runs with which to work. Ghost Farmer,

(10:17):
right hander. He's warming up down in the Detroit bullpen.
In the left field corner is Wilson is in early trouble.
The runners were going on the last three to two
pitch and likely we'll do it again. Marius waits, the
runners go, Mars hates.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
His great there's a throw, go to play. Come, I
got these valid.

Speaker 1 (10:59):
James have changed here in the last twenty seconds at
Tiger Stadium. Now Flood's at Teck and base and they're
two out. Marriage took a call third striking. It was
a good pitch from Wilson after knee freehand fired the
ball to work and Brock couldn't even slide. He was
out by that much. A double play going two five
freehand to work. First time the Brock has been out
stealing in series play after eleven successes. Now it takes

(11:25):
a base advice a beta to.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
Get blood all bitch high ball on.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
Two outs, then the strike out in rock out Steely
and the Tiger fans get the first time to chair
today and I'll feel deep.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Around of the left for the Beder's had two out of.

Speaker 1 (11:42):
Eightens series driven in one run, he waits the bitch
for Wilson, swung out in the ground ball of the
leftist Stanley up of the ball, big Hof juggles it
and pros.

Speaker 2 (11:53):
He's out ending the dollar.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
At the end of one halpening no score.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
Any reads along with Jack Buckett Tiger Stadium in Detroit, Michigans.
The third game of the World stayers between the Cardinals
and the Tigers.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
And what are the first things? Look to me like
the Tigers in real bad shape. Buck Jack.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
Rock gotta walk then, but gotta walk, and everything was looking.

Speaker 1 (12:20):
Bad for the Tigers. And with one pitch everything looked
good for the Tigers and maybe just the lift they.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
Need in the field.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
Now the Cardinals on defense have a battery of wash
part of McCarver, but they go better. Is Zick mccaulo
in the crowd reaching around the Cardinal infield, Shannon of third,
Mexico short Avier a second sivated first Rock and left
Water and center Marrison right, Tony Pucinello couching a third
base for the Tigers, and Wally mos Is the first

(12:48):
of mccaulloch with three hits already in the series. A
lot padded batter steps in about a two forty nine
during the regular season, and he likes the short right
Bill Porch outfield plays them around the road Shannon even
with a bag of third. The first pitch of the
breaking ball goes low from Washburn. Ball up. Gray Washburn,
thirty year old right hander, his best year ever in

(13:10):
the Major leagues with a record of fourteen and eight
lives in Kirk from Washington, comes to the plate to mccallar.
He takes a lo again ball two, a call of
with that classic batting stance of his wide oven facing
the picture, kicks up front. What's the right foot? As
the pitch comes in Washburn behind the lead off there
he usually has outstanding control into the lineup the pitch

(13:33):
and it swung on and its foul off to the
left and out of play. Two balls in a straighter
in this first inning, it'll be mccallock, Mickey Stanley, and
Alkyl Rightnals did not score in the first inning. Left
one man on base Jack. What type of pitcher is
Ray washburkon his fast pitch in the last couple of
months has been his off speed breaking pitch.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
And so all you'd say is a breaking ball pitcher rather.

Speaker 1 (13:55):
Than a fastball pitcher throws a fastball, slider and curve
and changes speeds on the he comes to the plate,
ground ball is a beta. He trapped the ball and
after down washburn power is out. At first it's the
hata mate to play himself. The traffic was a little
too tough for Subaita to throw the ball. Washburn was
over there to cover, but Orlando preferred to make the

(14:15):
play himself, and he didn't call up his out first
Mason assistant in the batter as Mickey Stanley. Samley right
ANDed batter, normally a center fielder and one of the
best in the game. Playing short stop today, he's had
three out of nine in the series. And they playing

(14:37):
the pole around of the left pole wind up by Washburn.
He fires and a curveball stays high ball one.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
And that's the kind of the pitch they could get
a hurt or hurt most ballpark. I don't think Washton
would like to go too many pitches like that. He
got that pitch down just a little bit.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
That spells trouble. Here's the next one to Mickey Stanley
and it's a bringing ball inside and that's ball too.
He's been behind the first two hitters, as the old
Wilson was for the Tigers. In the first inning, the
sun is in and out of the clouds. The lights
are on at Tiger Stadium. We're in the first enter.
There's no score.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
On two and oh Stanley swing pitches and fluting based
on Abb the Air behind the.

Speaker 1 (15:17):
Bag up of the ball prows. He's out Stanley out
by a step fourth grade Bobby Air was back on
the zeels of the field of the ball. I had
time noneth last year. Get rid of Stanley in here
and now Kayli you and out. The base is empty.

(15:38):
Tiger's batting in the first in kay line with three
out of nine so far in the series. After play,
the right handed batter strictly a pool here rocking the
left field corner Flood and left slater Shannon behind the
bag of Thlird the pitch from Washburn stir right.

Speaker 2 (15:52):
Call the good basketball.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
The Washburn in this first inning, it's not been in
the trouble that Earl Wilson encountered but got out of
in his first hitting. There's a curve ball that got
away from Washburn over the head of the hitter one
and once a ball and the strike. Now Mcarver roughs
up the baseball before returning it to the botb waiting

(16:18):
on deck to it is norm Cash about fifty three thousand
at the ballpark, all wearing wraps today. Curve in the dirt.
Now he's behind Kayline. Two balls in the strike. The

(16:39):
Washburn has been behind each of the first three hitters.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
Caline deep in the batter's box that held high.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
He waits. He takes a straight call. He's started to
go and took the slider on the outside corner, and
Washburn showed him a little bit of everything. I think
you'll see that the both of these pitches today.

Speaker 2 (16:57):
With these long ball hitters up, that they'll try to
keep the ball out a white boa.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
Washburn caught the corner of that time to make the
count two and two. He comes again and now Kayline
takes it a long away and that's ball for a call.
At Grandado Subbana, Stanley was thrown off by Avire and
a three two kna and Kaylin and the next one

(17:25):
on the way swung on blah blah left off Rock
going backs those quoad they're both there and Rock makes
the guy Cayline hit the ball rather deep to left out,
caught by Rock at the end of one ending. No
Scar seams are happy that the first ending is out
of the way. Well, I'm sure they are, especially the
Tigers that they re They did get themselves in a

(17:45):
jam that first thing.

Speaker 2 (17:46):
Wilson looks real shaky and you have two men on
that on those sacks like Rock and Flood looked like
nothing but trouble.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
With Roger Maris up there.

Speaker 2 (17:54):
But Wilson made a great pitch three and two on
Marais and he was caught looking at a through cout.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
Easley and also Jack.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
One thing in the Tiger's favorite Stanley was able to
play right on the bag the whole Rock coast, the coast.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
From Bass is definitely a full hitter. He didn't have
to worry about He hit the ball in the left field.
It was a point and it kept the Rock from
getting his usual big lead. Well, so Pa made the
last stout in the first sitting, leaving the man on.
So McCarver leads off looking for his second series hit.
The left handed batter Oh Wilson the right hander comes
to the plate and macarver takes a strike call to
the leaves. Willie mcarver, Shannon and Navier in the thaing topfield,

(18:34):
playing McCarver to poll just a bit, because Tim is
capable of hitting the ball out to the ballpark like this,
but most often he's going the other way. In the
left center Wilson delivers and macarver takes it outside for
a ball one and one. John Wort at third base
is a step in front of the bag with a
left handed hitter up there and playing off the line

(18:54):
about twelve feet. Stanley at short stop call up at
second base at the edge of the grass. Norm Cash
pretty well off the line at first. The one one
pitch lo Macarvery's scary to go held up to fall two.
Margno's won the opening game. Tigers came back to win

(19:16):
the second and even it up. And here we're in the.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
Second inning and there's no score.

Speaker 1 (19:21):
Macarver the leoff hitter and the two one delivery coming
swung on in a high five ball to center, an
easy chance for Jim Northrook waits under the ball and
has it for the first lt mccara got good one
on that ball. It sounded good, but it looked feebly
like he tried to pull an outside pitch and couldn't

(19:42):
get enough on it. Well.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
As you said the carver, most of the time he did.
He hitting the ball the left field left center, but
he was trying.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
To pull it and I didn't quite get around on
it enough. Mike Channon steps in prignal third basem in
the right handed batteries had two hits and one RBI
in the series. He goes down, ball won, The pitch
was up and end fall onto my Shannon. Jannon left
the cardinal ball. Clevin runs Patten in this year they

(20:11):
playing the poll. Bill Prehan gives the sign, Wilson delivers,
and Shannon's swings and grounds one back to the picture
on one of Dannon down a parson from Wilson to
Cash and there too, God dependsively for the Tigers. Don

(20:32):
Word at third, Mickey Stanley at short, Dick mccallop at
second base, and Norm Cash at first. Willie Horton isn't left.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
Willie will be hitting in the next setting.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
Following catch and center field, Jim Northrookin and right bil
al Kla with two out on the bases empty out
of the air as the hit it stop half of
the second most score Wilson team to have settled down considerably.
He pitches to Wholey and it's all outside Aaviers had
three HiT's, more than any other Cardinal in the series

(21:04):
so far, and it's the only Red Bird to drive
in two runs. Cardinals have only one home run in
the two games played, and the Tigers have three. Xavier
deep in the batter's box, takes them all over, and
that's Paul two. Navier hit two sixty this year and

(21:29):
a good deal of that average compiled against left handed
pitching in murders the left handers.

Speaker 2 (21:35):
Against the right hander like Wilson, Well, you don't know.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
What to expect it and loined up. The Detroit hurler
fires Aavier takes it inside and that's Paul three, three
and all. Javier looks down at Joe Schultz at third base.
See if the hitter take is on. It's conceivable Avier
would be swinging at the three nothing bitch, but not
very likely. Max Bell waiting on deck two out, nobody on.

(22:03):
I'm three and all low ball four and that's the
third walk given up. Firel Wilson aavi Air walks with
two outs.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
There have been no hits from this ballgame.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
Is yet the Daggers went down in the order in
their first.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
Inning rightnos had two men on them.

Speaker 1 (22:17):
The first the boat by walks and now a two
hot walk. As you do, av Air brings up down
max Bill.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
Maxville.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
The Cardinals treutched off looking for his first hit in
the series. Ave Air is on it. First the scole
on the base against Detroit. The pitchre max Bill swung
on in a fly ball to the left that goes
hard and back near the wall. He's got it. Snaxville
flying the left. Then the end of the end of

(22:45):
it inning and a half the Cardinal's nothing beat.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
You right now there maybe reads along with Jack Budd
bottom half the second.

Speaker 1 (22:52):
INNI no scoring this ball game. No one's no hits,
no airs for the Cardinals, no lunch, no hits, and
no airs for the Tigers. They for the Tigers.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
The bottom half the second will be no arm cash
then follow but Willie Hartman, Jim Norfolk, and Jack dal
Maxville only hit one home.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
Run this year, but he came close on that way.
Another five feet that ball would have been over the
head of Willie Horton and left field and would have
been two to nothing Saint Louis. That's about Maxville's best shot.
The little guy fucked up and couldn't quite get it
into the seats. I'm sure he wasn't trying to Cash
HARKing in Northwood. Well back to the Tigers in the second,
and here is perhaps the well one of the two

(23:31):
most dangerous hitters and the Tiger club in this ballpark.
Norm Cash, left handed batter, already has a home run
in the series, takes the ball outside. He's had three
hits in the two games played, and they play him
to pull into the line up. Gray Washburn fires and
a change up his hit fol past first base is

(23:51):
Washburn let up on the pitch, Cash way out in front.
Foled it down into the corner, makes it one and one.
Cash batted two sixty three this year, only three twenty
five down the line in the right field of the seats,
and that's Cash territory. You can hit him a lord
upper deck or over the roofer in this ballpark, which

(24:11):
he's done. One ball, one strike to condom the lead
off hitter. Cardinal right hander fires and it's a good
strike call of the needs cash dots hole one ball
two strike that might have been was Spurn's best basketball
of this ball game in its early stages.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
And he's out in front of norm cash deliverers and
the curb goes in the dirk.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
That makes a tun turn. The fans get out in
the up bar, all out on the ball. The strike
you do two and two give a lot of room
to Cash and left center and Rock is way off
the left field foul line. The two two delivery is

(25:01):
low inside with a slider and a paulk out. Now
I'm praying to hikers, haven't had a base runner yet.
We're in the bottom of the second inning, no score
and the three two pictures on the way and it
swung on and hit off the end of the bat
behind short Maxicll has to get it. He's back there
and makes the guy. When I said Mexicll has to

(25:23):
get it. He could get no help from Brock, who
is playing way around in the left center. Here's Willy Horton.

Speaker 2 (25:30):
And listening to the crowd, the Tiger left fielder.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
Leading home run. To the ear of the nineteen sixty
eight campaign, Willey Horton has had two hits, including a
home run in the series. A medicing looking fellow he
is five pounders, steps in deep in the batter's box,
wide stance, the pitch grball, oh wa one out time

(26:04):
called As mccarvery goes to talk to his picture Ray Washburn.
They're planning just the opposite for Wharton as they were
for Cash. Way around to the left rock near the
corner blood and left center straight away center feel is
almost empty. With Wharton up there and Maris way off

(26:25):
the right veal, Paul Line, Channon deep behind the bag
of the third, they wind up in the pitch breaking
ball stays inside and that's fall two, one out and
nobody on. You get behind a fellow like Wharton, he's
looking for a pitch and he gets it. Watch it.

(26:49):
Washburn delivers Hi fall grave and now Wharton has a
look at Tony Kutchen out Can I hit? He might
be swinging, dude.

Speaker 2 (27:02):
The only thing about this park you have to pitch
a little bit more differently than you do in the Cardinals.
You'll notice the pitchers will be three and two and
three one.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
Because they can't just afford to put that ball down
the middle of the plate. They're always trying to keep
that hitter hitting that long ball. The three. Now, I
think that is a straight call, and a good fastball
from Washburn, who challenged him, makes it three and one. Well,
he steps out, knocks the dirt out of his spikes
before getting back in. Washburn is retired. Four men in

(27:34):
a row. Pitch to know hitter earlier this year, you know,
against the Giants. The three one file back to the
screen makes it three and two. Well, they are hearten
up there with a three two count. One out. Face
is empty, last half of the second inning and no
score in the ballgame. Jim Northrup waiting in the on

(28:02):
deck circle, McCarver waits for the hitter to get set,
gives the sign and here's the three to two pitch.
Lowe in the dirt ball four and Horton becomes the
first Tiger base runner. And now Earl Wilson has walked
three and Washburn has walked one. On the batter is

(28:22):
Jim Northrupt, the center fielder for Detroit. Northrup has had
one hit in the two games, strong left handed batter,
more straight away hitter than Norm Cash. So Fada's holding

(28:43):
against Wharton at first base. He's hitting room through the
right side of the enfield, the pitch inside with a
slider of ball on the cardinal infield of Shannon, Maxville
I of the air and Spada looking for the double
playball to win the ending. Northrup e the plate, wanting
to do something with Martin at first in one out,
the pitch let up goes high ball to Northrop starting

(29:08):
to go held up. Washburns behind this hitter. Two and
all breeze blowing out toward right will help these left
handed batters bark and the lead. The pitch swung on
and saying, bow ball hit fast first, face down into
the corner. A fowl ball hit fine offer, so we

(29:34):
have somewhat of a real barbs Mayo Smith comes out
of the Tiger dugout and he's talking to the plate umpire.
The ball hit fair, bounced past first base and hit ball.
But the question is was it fair when it passed
the bag. Northrop, the left handed batter, was looking right
at it. He thought it was. The young buire said no,
and it's two balls in the strike.

Speaker 2 (29:55):
A lot of people don't realize Jack, that that ball
goes over any part of that It does not have
to hit in far territory of all he goes to
any part of that bag and hit the foul territory.

Speaker 1 (30:06):
It's still fair. Two balls and a spiked the conte
Jim Northorough Harton with a lead. The pitch is made.
It's a straight carl on the outside corner of fastball
two and two. Sawy Northrop says, you put the things
on him whenever you've come here with the NBC Game
of the week. He never gets it. I was wondered
if you.

Speaker 2 (30:24):
Heard that today.

Speaker 1 (30:28):
Well, let's see what happens here. Two balls too straight.

Speaker 2 (30:33):
Jim steps out as Washburn started to.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
Work too quickly. Washburn steps back on. Horton takes a
leave and the two two pitches coming swung on popped
up in the right field. Maris is going to get it,
waits and it has it to the second out and
Willie Horton back to the first base. Northrough reached for
the ball and set a routine flop all the Marats

(30:58):
with two out till free and comes up looking for
his first hit up the series.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
He's a real favorite here in Detroit.

Speaker 1 (31:10):
End of the University of Michigan just a few miles
from this ballpark. It's from Saint Petersburg, Florida. Barton On
at first base, two out, no score, second inning in
pree Hand held up on a half slim hold on
three two sixty three. During the year over six in

(31:31):
the series full letter right ended batter, Washburn checks the
runner and delivers. It's low ball two in the second
ending no score. There're two out and the Tigers and

(31:53):
Barton at first.

Speaker 2 (31:55):
Three Hand will be gunning for one here.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
On two and zero. The pitch him all three.

Speaker 2 (32:05):
It's like Don wort might be coming up in the Senate.

Speaker 1 (32:09):
Three and nothing to pre end.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
And with Don Worth coming up, it was a two
hundred hitter this year, don't Brew surprise the pre.

Speaker 1 (32:16):
End swings it this week. The lead by Horton, the
pitcher's high all four and Preehand lost two walks by
life starting the enemy and Don Work comes down.

Speaker 2 (32:32):
He's a pesty little hitter with batting average.

Speaker 1 (32:35):
He's not too proud of Peeley. It wasn't been on
base here, Horton. It's second three and the first and
didn't happen. I want to say one thing, Zack.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
You have a fellow that's following Don Wart hitting that ninth.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
Spot, who is the bad hitter. He just had seven
home runs this year and batted him seventeen runs. So
was Washburn is going to have to come to don
Wart give him a ball to hit. Two on two out,
second ending, no score, ball one low outside Carver, you
own something out to a fitty wash Burnt. Before we
turning the ball. Bikers haven't had a hit, but they

(33:12):
have their first scoring threat first and second two out
work swings box a pod off in the left hand
and coming over Sol's McCarver, it's going to be out
of play. A ball in a strike now.

Speaker 2 (33:32):
Down word where is that pick? The plamp over the
left ear on his panting helmet.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
It looks a little strange. That takes a little getting
used to. It looks a little strange, Jack. But if
I think if I were playing the day, I believe
I would.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
Wear attention plan. Being one of the Blues is not
a bad idea.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
Yes, two on two out, no score, second any a
ball in the strike undone worth the pits swing in
the medicine. It's quite blue.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
It's one of the few balls that Washburn has thrown
by a hitter who's swing.

Speaker 1 (34:04):
He's off in front of work one and two. I'll
feel straight away not too deep with this hitter up there.
The man's flapping the hands trying to get something started
for the Tigers here in the second innings, which from Washburn,
and it's low. Two balls, two strakes.

Speaker 2 (34:32):
Word is capable of hitting home runs. He's got forty
five of them during his name to the career.

Speaker 1 (34:39):
Two balls just ranks two on to out. The pitcher's
coming swung on. This carp wall got him work the
top half the third of thing him.

Speaker 2 (34:49):
He raised along with Jack Buck the first hitter where
the Cardinals will be Ray Washburn, tell you.

Speaker 1 (34:56):
All about it. Jack, come on in here, okay if
you either haven't any hits in this ball game. The
Tigers have had two base runners, both on walks. Big
has had three base runners, all on walks, and Washburn
comes up. Washburn is capable of hitting the ball. He's
not considered to be a good hitting picture like Wilson,

(35:16):
and he has hit home runs in the big leagues
before the pitch to him is a strike car Earl
Wilson on the line.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
The Tiger right handered mag Washburn has hit only one
home run during his big league career.

Speaker 1 (35:32):
The pick swung on bouncing ball is short Nicky Stanley
with a big Hopkins throw, he is out to run.
Guy Stanley throws on Washburn. There's one out here in
the top half of the third hundred no score. Well,
continue to tell you about this ballpark for those of
you who haven't visited Tiger Stadium. Three forty down the

(35:54):
line and left, four forty and straightaway.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
Center three twenty five down the line and right.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
But the power alleys are very fuindly pilo hitters. The
batter brock walk stole a base and was out stealing
in the first inning. Left handed hitter takes the ball
up their basement down where has to play about five
steps in front of the bag with Rock up there.
Although Blue doesn't fund as off as you think he would.

(36:23):
First basement cash is even with a bag yuarding against
the drag bunch. The pitch from Wilson coming low again
ball two, and that's what Wilson doesn't want. If they're
gonna put Brock in, only wanted to hit it where
leave maball together, of course, is they're.

Speaker 2 (36:41):
Rippertsf You a walk a fellow like this, It's not
like giving just one base.

Speaker 1 (36:45):
It's almost like walking a double. Two balls, no strikes.
Here's the next one in Brock swings and hits it
over the pitcher's head. Cup play for Stanley. Up with
the ball parls Gray Love Rock legs went out. Is
Stanley handled the ball quite well right in front of
the second day's bag, got rid of it, but couldn't

(37:08):
flag down Louve Rock. And there's the first pitch of
the series. Pecky Stanle at the shark stop made a
great play. I didn't think he had made it as
close as he did. He would have thrown anyone Ouse
out outside of Loue Rock. The Rock has the first
tip in this ball game. He's stolen four bases thus far.
One of them today he's not at first with one

(37:29):
out on the batter is Krick Blood Roccaly. The pitch
is high for ball one. In situations like this too
many times the Cardinals called Rock not to steal in
order to leave that hitting room for Kirk Blood will
Cash holding against the runner and Kirk Flud can't hit
that ball in the right field. Right side of the
infield is almost empty. He was mccallo near the bag

(37:50):
at second Rocca League, He's going Rick swung on and
followed by Flood. Rock was trying to steal and Flood
followed off, making it one and one third. I didn't
have no.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
Score here in Detroit, first.

Speaker 1 (38:04):
World Series game since nineteen forty five. In this Michigan city.

Speaker 2 (38:09):
Had a good enough day.

Speaker 1 (38:10):
Otherwise about fifty five the green sunshine.

Speaker 2 (38:16):
Hello Wilson, who won thirteen.

Speaker 1 (38:18):
For the Tigers this year. In his first Series game,
checks Rock pitches, Blood takes it in the dirt, and
I'll fine playing Babill pre and who kept that ball
in front of it? Two balls in the stripe. Washburn
brought it out to start the inning. Rock got an

(38:39):
infield to hit the first hit of the ball game
and hour O Wilson is behind Kurt Blood two balls
in the strike don't score. A third inning, Rock takes
a lead along look by Wilson. Rock is going to

(39:00):
pitch fouled again by flood Less one might be fought
near the stags. He won't be by Cash. He hasn't.
When Brock running again, Flood out of ball, they hit
new Fall. They're trying to go to right, Bill going
Cash made the catch too out the matter marrets and
Rock was trying to steal with one odd he.

Speaker 2 (39:23):
Surely would have kind of steale with cooing God.

Speaker 1 (39:26):
It looks to me like as you know, on his
iron though, Rock is on his own.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
He can steal any time he wants to accept you
told me. Occasionally they give him a sign not to steal.

Speaker 1 (39:35):
That's the only time he doesn't run due and Red
sand is as much as he can upset a bothub.
I'm sure anytime he gets on there, he's going as
soon as he possibly can. Marriage who has fallen on
strikes his first time waits at the plate. Rock is
not going in the pitches, alowing away ball on the ride.
Americans Harris will two out on the first and then

(39:55):
looked at the third strike they can call up the
second baseman is a step into the outfield grass with
Maris up there.

Speaker 2 (40:05):
Don't play Marins to pull as most ball clubs do.

Speaker 1 (40:10):
Rocca League not going pitch strength ball one in one.

Speaker 2 (40:14):
Gilson got his slidering there.

Speaker 1 (40:15):
That's probably the best fifth dude, Yes, I would say
it isn't. Also as sacerd ball. He can keep the
ball down. He is tough. Maris waits no score. Third inning,
Rocket first two out one ball one spank the count Roger.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
And the pitch from Wilson instead of throwing the first
in the runner's back.

Speaker 1 (40:42):
Wilson does not have a particularly good move the first
Rocca League, he's going, pitch filed by marits No, he's
in the whole one and two file off the mask
of the catcher free. On so many different times now,
Brock has tried to.

Speaker 2 (41:01):
Steel base, and each time the hitter has.

Speaker 1 (41:05):
Followed the bit you'll get tired. You're getting your roadworking
due north Brook straightaway, center field, k line off the
line and right, and Marius Wastes Rock is not going.

(41:27):
The pitch is low and it is still good and
the Tiger third ending Earl Wilson will be leading off.
What will they score me at that time on the
top of the third nothing, nothing, two balls, two strikes

(41:47):
to Marius Rock. A league will leisurely tossed over there,
viral Wilson. Yeah, Lou leads the way again. Another quick throw.
He's back in time. You can see there. Jackie gave
him not his good move on the first one, but

(42:09):
that one right there with the best move that you'll
see of Earl Wilson. Another look over there by Wilson.
Rock is going the pitcher's outside and Rock is praying man.
The ball was knocked out of the glove of Stanley
and Rock now has stolen five paces his second in

(42:32):
this game, and it's good in the three games he's
a second with two out. Maris took all three and
it's a full kind of friend zoo. If Sammy had
held that ball, Brockmans stood right into it boo or
was he there? I thought that it had a chance
of Stanny with Hell on the ball.

Speaker 2 (42:50):
I thought Bill Freehan, as many times as they've gone
the second have stolen second. I think that was Bill
Freehan's best throw of the series.

Speaker 1 (42:57):
I agree with that Rock ends up in second with
two out and the three two can Marris and the
basit with Chase on the first run of the game.
The pitch low ball four and Sipada comes out with
two on, two out, and that is the fourth walk
issue viral Wilson as Mary's laid off the sinker ball,
freehand meets Wilson halfway to the mound.

Speaker 2 (43:20):
You'll have to pitch to Sapeta.

Speaker 1 (43:21):
Now, Orlando grounded out to short in the first thing,
leaving a man on base. Cepeta Diggs for at the
time before coming up, we were watching him in batting breakers.
Maybe he's still not hitting the ball like the Cipado,
But you and I both knew no. I saw him

(43:43):
last year and I said that I thought he was
probably the best hitter in baseball. But this year, well,
he's had a very week. Here he'd batted two forty
eight for him and he's never had a good series.
Two on two out the pitch to Cipeta from Wilson
on the way, and it's low ball on Rock is
the right at second base, likely won't be going anywhere.
With human up out of first base, Marits out field

(44:07):
deeper around them, left for Cippata, no score it not
half of the third hundred. Wilson is ready. And here
he comes up and the vaulted and Wilson is struggling.
Rocket and then field hit with one out, the only
hit of this game or either clubs. And with two

(44:28):
out of his walk, Maris after the stolen base by Brock,
and now I was behind submitta two and oh Savata
digging in waiting. Here's the pitch swung on piled and
Sapeta a good club. The pitch was down from Wilson.

Speaker 2 (44:49):
He was fouling up into the price box.

Speaker 1 (44:52):
He kept the bad news that time.

Speaker 2 (44:55):
That's the best swing I've seen you have in a
long time. One thing I used to base about him
the way he would attack the ball, as I would say,
he doesn't. He doesn't jerk at the ball, but just
that's fun foot. When he decides to take his swing,
he just dives in.

Speaker 1 (45:10):
At the ball. He swoons the big forty ounce back
and he waits for the two one delivery for Meroe.

Speaker 2 (45:14):
Wilson rocket, second, maris the.

Speaker 1 (45:16):
First two out.

Speaker 2 (45:17):
Third, ain't no score, and the.

Speaker 1 (45:19):
Pitch to Supeta is on the way. Swung on and.

Speaker 2 (45:22):
Missing the breaking ball got them choon two.

Speaker 1 (45:29):
The pato is full of the breaking ball and the
crowd goes to tune two. Wilson has struck out one,
allowed one hit and walk forward.

Speaker 2 (45:40):
He would like to improve the totals.

Speaker 1 (45:42):
In the spring gout department. Right here with the Petter.
Wilson taking plenty of time, gets the sign from Bill
Prehen and he's ready. Here it comes swung on, tap

(46:02):
foul out in front of the play out of the
fans and various portions of the ballpark, couldn't see the
ball and thought that's a pated fan.

Speaker 2 (46:09):
He apparently got to be submitted, still doing too.

Speaker 1 (46:24):
The third game of the World Series one described by
most as a pivotal game, the Mada trying to chase
home the first run of the game and Row Wilson
trying to get him out. The two to two delivery
coming swung on a high fly ball in the left
center field should be caught back on the track as Horton,

(46:45):
so is Golfer, and Golfer has Pat Savannah fled to
center righteous league two homes. If we ended two and
a half sagally something we tried, not NBC, as you
had Tiger Stadium in Detroit. Then we reached alongside and
I'm Jack Buck. The Tiger's no runs, no hits, no errors,
the Cardinals no runs, one infield hit and no errors.

(47:06):
And we going to the bottom of the third ending
with Arrow Wilson leading off. Tomorrow Gibson and McLain in
the fourth game of the series, and this place would
be howling tomorrow. Okay, we is if it isn't today, well,
I'm just wondering if the Tiger has learned anything. And
that's the first game against Bob Gibson. I've talked to

(47:27):
quite a field it and they do say that they're
definitely not gonna quite a swing as hard as he
did in that first stand. There's Row Wilson, the Tiger
pitcher who this year hit seven home runs. There he
is lifetime career in the America League. Is hit thirty
three home runs. A strong right handed matter and a
full hitter.

Speaker 2 (47:47):
The pitch from Washburn is a curve and they're on.

Speaker 1 (47:49):
A called strike. Ray Washburn on the mountain. He's allowed
two base runners, both on walks and both on the
second inning. Now we're in the last of the third.
There's no score. Wilson leading off strike. Call the passball
at the letters strike two. It will be Wilson call
it and stan Lee and the Tiger third. Here's the

(48:14):
next one and it's high with the past ball. Wilson
laid off ball one one two. Joint off field is
playing Wilson with about as much respect as they show anybody.
The pitch coming curve in there called strike. He's out.
His track outs for Washburn is he got in with
an off speed curveball, which is then the picks which

(48:36):
is made Washburn so effective in the last part of
this regular season. Mccallough latter grounded sharply to sappet his
first time, and Orlando guards the line as the Tiger.

Speaker 2 (48:47):
Second baseman steps in.

Speaker 1 (48:50):
Mccallough is driven in two runs in the series. That
on a base hit in the center field, I'll feel
around on the right form. The pitch is up and
in ball one, Ray Washburn a right hand around the
mountain for Saint Louis and mccaulivet the plate. Most people

(49:10):
expected a high scoring game today, but nothing doing so far.
There's a breaking ball stays outside ends Ball two, breeze
blowing Floyd Wright the draft trying to whooping up, and
the that's kind of deck for collar strike ball, the

(49:31):
good fastball from Washburn two and one. Washburn now has
two strike outs in a row. He fanned word to
him the second ending and got Wilson here at the
start of the Tiger third to two one delivery on
the ways high with the fastball makes the count for

(49:54):
three and one. Washburn's walk too, has a three to
one count on the hitter. Jolly Cucino coaching at third
base for Detroit and Wally Moons is at first and
I'm sure the McCulloch has a green light in this situation.
Here comes the three one delivery, swung on hit Powel

(50:14):
past the Cardinal dugout down into the right field corner.
Saint Louis is playing Shannon the third, Maxwell at short
aveer a second sipated first Rock and left Flood and
center and Marison right the full count and the left
handed batter Dick McCollough right hander Washburn, after a long look,

(50:46):
goes to work. Here's the three to two delivery, hit Powell,
a line drive down into the right field corner. The
fans reached trying to get a World Series souvenir, but
it's beyond their reach. It's steered by a member of
the Cardinal bullpen crew. Still three and two. Here mcfiver
chattering behind the plate. Here's the next delivery, and it

(51:13):
swung on as a horse.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
Tiger had a shot on the left feeling by Rock
on two hops.

Speaker 1 (51:17):
McCullock goes part way. The second that comes back, McCulloch
single in the left center fail on one out. Each
team has a base head in the ball game. Now

(51:38):
mccauliffe is on it first thinks about the fastest of.

Speaker 2 (51:42):
The Tiger runners.

Speaker 1 (51:44):
Hunt it first with one gun in the batter with
Mickey Stanley Jack. I think Ray Washburn thought he had
a call up set up. Then after three and one
Pitchy two of a spider. Three and two, Pitchy threw
him a curve ball. He thought he could throw that
fastball buying, but he didn't. They pitch out. But mcculiffe
is not going ball onder Stanley. He's a neighborhood boy

(52:05):
from Birmingham, Michigan. Runner at first base, one out here
in the Tiger third, no scar.

Speaker 2 (52:17):
Then he Stanley at the plate.

Speaker 1 (52:18):
Grounded the second his first time. The pitcher on the
way and he splew was missus, I want to cut here, Stanley.
But the best front of the ball game so far.
He was going for downtown with that one a ball
and a strake. That was the letter Land basketball that
Washburn got by him outfield around to the left. I

(52:45):
call up the lead off first, the pitcher's maid swung
on double play ball, hit two out the air. Boots
called the first out at first and a call up
to say the second. Bobby Air pulled a potential double
play ball, then had to go to front to get Stanley,
and al Caline comes up with the runner at second
and two out, and you think they would have had
too and he handled the doll and clean. They're doing well.

(53:07):
Of course, I've seen Hovier and Maxville make that double
play so many times, and they're very quick.

Speaker 2 (53:12):
But Hobby are annoying that mcauliff, who has let's be
going in the second one to get the ball to
Hobby are with something at.

Speaker 1 (53:19):
Her and he also knew that Stanley the hitter and
fly down that first base line, and I think he'd
tried to throw the ball before he caught it. Mcauliff
is on at second base and Alkylin, who flied to
left his first time as the batter, he has a
chance to put the Tigers out in butt in the
smallest third night, the first pack swung he must recur

(53:41):
ball and he was trying to make a two another.
In the last five weeks of the season, Kayline matted
Breeze sixty eight, so he was carrying a hot hand
coming into the series. He waits for Washburn. Here it
comes basketball straight ball and up here the kay Line

(54:01):
it was mine man up. He was going to get
another breaking.

Speaker 2 (54:04):
Ball jack Bob Gibson told me the other day that
when Kline is at bat with runners on base, he
looks for the curveball, and they're going to try to
pitch him a fastball with men on Let's see if.

Speaker 1 (54:14):
They do on to the camp curve in the dirt.
As Washburn wasted one, making him one and two, mccaullup
was single and.

Speaker 2 (54:21):
Advanced a second on an infield out.

Speaker 1 (54:23):
There is that second with two out here in the
bottom of the third, notting and no score. Cay Lie
the batter Washburn out in front of him, one and two.
I'll feel deep to the left is Kayline waits and
the pitch coming is a fastball, and it barely missed.
And the Cardinals thought they had him stuck out. A
carver tried to flatten the ball with his fist, and

(54:47):
Washburn took a step off the mound. And I'll look
in at the play on fire, Stan Landish. It's two
and two. Now there was a fastball a few we
referred to, but he didn't get to strike. Here it
comes curved, the high put or nothing you cut how

(55:33):
Camhaim playing in his first world. Here he's Heaver has
just hit a two.

Speaker 2 (55:37):
Run home and the Tigers leaves him nothing.

Speaker 1 (55:39):
Norm Tag takes the ball inside. He hit a curveball
and appear to be about goa high and we we
reasoned he headed into the upper deck.

Speaker 2 (55:48):
Well, I looked like he was looking for a curveball
that pitch before when the wasn't just.

Speaker 1 (55:52):
Messed with that fast ball. But Caylin dave Y with
it and got his pitch and it was not a
good trip ball. It's a little too hot now. Cash
balls went out of flo and the left handed better
has the count of one and one, and thecarver goes
to the mount to talk to Washburn. It was not
a good curveball for Washington, a good curveball for Kaylin.

Speaker 2 (56:09):
I'll say good to nothing, Detroit.

Speaker 1 (56:12):
They've made two runs on two hits.

Speaker 2 (56:17):
Washburn does not have a great.

Speaker 1 (56:21):
Propensity for throwing home run balls. Kay Line got to
him that time. During the year, the Washburn allowed only
nine home runs, and he pitched a lot of innings.
Norm Cash takes a change up outside wall two two
one with one out in this Tiger third of a
scarless game. Wilson struck out McCall off singles solidly. The

(56:44):
left Stanley grounded out. The Gardinals missed the double playing
and Kayline Homer's Cash hits the ground ball a second.
I mean here has to come fast puff Curves, good play,
he got it. He's out the end of his others.
He quite jumps out in front of the end of
pree inning is a star. The Tiger's two the Cardinals,
how they there's the fourth inning now a two nothing
ball game. Detroit McCarver leading off for the Cardinal girl

(57:05):
Wilson on the mound, and here to bring you the
play by play former and Dodgers short stop Huey Reeves,
thank you very much, Jack.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
For the top half of the fourth inning. We have
seen some of the Cardinals speed.

Speaker 1 (57:20):
Well hit hard, bow down that first baseline, the Carver
getting a little bit too much out in front of
that ball.

Speaker 2 (57:28):
Alf Kline has shown the Tiger power as he hit
a home runner the left field stand with McCall upon
base to put the Tigers out in front. Here in
the bottom half the third any earl Wilson will try
to hold it and the Carver trying to start things
off of the Cardinals at the top half the fourth inning,
fastball is justice outside one ball in one strike. The
Carver will be followed by.

Speaker 1 (57:49):
Shannon and Jabber.

Speaker 2 (57:54):
They attended it today fifty three thousand and thirty four.
A nice crowd on hand to see this third game
of the World Series. The power right straight back over
our heads. Macarvero hit two fifty three during the regular season.

Speaker 1 (58:14):
Lifetime World Series played two seventy eight. He's one for
seven in the series. The second I meaning he fired
out the center field. Here's Wilson's pitcher. I drive the
base hit out on the right field out Kayline to
go over to cut that ball out. Macarvero makes the turn.

(58:36):
The throw comes into Sandy, A shark stops and Kayline.
You can hear the people yells Kyline fired the ball
on the line the stanley of sharks. So the Continentals
have a base runner on at first.

Speaker 2 (58:50):
Really, the opposition doesn't do much run on.

Speaker 1 (58:52):
Any of these Tiger ob killers. Kayline has one of
the real great arms in baseball. Talking about kaylinet it
one hundred.

Speaker 2 (59:00):
And seventy full home runs in his career at this ballpark,
plus wonder Day makes it one hundred.

Speaker 1 (59:05):
And seventy five. Mike Shannon takes the first pitch a
low sinker by Earl Wilson. Two lower ball one.

Speaker 2 (59:14):
Shannon checking with the coach Joel Schultz at third base,
coaching in first base for the Cardinals Dick Sisler, the
son of the great George Sisler.

Speaker 1 (59:26):
One ball, most strike.

Speaker 2 (59:27):
Here's the pitch Shannon started. Check the swing on the
curve ball. It's lowing outside ball two the Tigers two,
the Cardinals nothing.

Speaker 1 (59:38):
In the third game of.

Speaker 2 (59:39):
This nineteen sixty eighth World Series Tomorrow Sunday, it'll be
Bob Gibson against Jenny McLean. Hope that you're gonna be
with us, Jack bucking awerby right back here, game time,
twelve forty five Eastern daylight time. Curveball inside cal three and.

Speaker 1 (59:56):
Earl Wilson wanted that it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:07):
Reno's account on Mike Shannon, McCarver on it first arm
cash holding closed, McCall up over close to the bag
at second Samley a couple of steps toward third, fastball
inside bar four and Wilson had a little control problem today.
That's his fifth base on ball.

Speaker 1 (01:00:28):
See, he's not the sort of pitcher ordinarily, and all
that he depends on his good fastball and slider and
keeping it on the corners. He doesn't walk that many,
but today five walks, Jack you thay is maybe in
the series like this, they may be trying to be
just a little bit too fine. It appears that way
where he walked only sixty five during the regular season

(01:00:51):
while striking out one hundred and sixty eight.

Speaker 2 (01:00:56):
Bobbier runners on first and second. M carver on at second,
chaned on it first. There's no one away where the
top half the fourth inning here Tiger said in Wilson
checks McCarver at second.

Speaker 1 (01:01:07):
Here's the pitch, but carvero away out the front of
that curveball looks to me like he was looking for
a fastball.

Speaker 2 (01:01:12):
Alby here is that kind of interview.

Speaker 1 (01:01:14):
If he's looking for a particular pitch, he can look
as bad as anybody can at the plate. The other hand,
he has power, particularly in a ballpark like this. And
I know the people imagine getting weird of us saying
a ballpark like this, but this ballpark was built for hitters.

Speaker 2 (01:01:28):
And here's a fellow that's been real tough in World Series,
played three seventy five lifetime averaging service.

Speaker 1 (01:01:40):
During the season. Earl Wilson talking about his controlled five
base on ball. That is high curveball going outside. Ball
one and a'lvierer. As Jack told you, he loves left
handers right handers. I mean, just a little bit more trouble.

(01:02:01):
He's cuffing the crutch. He's checking with Joe Schultz got
at third base, Mcarver on at second shouting on it.

Speaker 2 (01:02:08):
First two to nothing, the Tigers over the Cardinals when
the top half the fourth and A Wilson sets looks
back at the Carver. Here's the pitch, span up minute
sack two. Jack talking about Bob Gibson telling me that

(01:02:32):
our kaylines looks for curveballs.

Speaker 1 (01:02:34):
Man on base. Evidently Ray did not read the report.
I think you knew about it. Gipson knew about it,
and Washburton didn't. Gets some told Washburton's did the two ways.

Speaker 2 (01:02:47):
Of course, you just can't kids standing out there throwing
a man of fastball all day. The curveball, as Jack
told he was a little bit higher.

Speaker 1 (01:02:52):
Ray wanted it down a little bit more blowing outside.
Here's the pitch. The hobby air just missed two balls,
two strikes. The Cardinals have no runs, they have two hits.
They have not made an error. The Tigers have.

Speaker 2 (01:03:08):
Two runs on two hits, a home run, but out
Kayline with the call. Upon Hobby Air calls time, goes over.

Speaker 1 (01:03:16):
To Dalal Maxwell in Hillan's deck circle, gets a little
pine parn and puts it on his back. Earl Wilson
getting in a few practice strows. The count is two
and two on Hobby Air. There's no one away.

Speaker 2 (01:03:38):
McCarver on its second, Shannon on it first. Wilson asks
for the count from San Lanis who's behind home plate
on part today.

Speaker 1 (01:03:48):
Pat Dobson, the right hander is starting to warm up
in the Tiger bullpen. Wilson the stretch, the pitch low
on outside ball three, three and two. The count of robber.
You're talking about Maris and that striking out earlier when

(01:04:09):
there was a comparable situation. Now, Avire does strike out
quite a bit of particularly against right handed pitchers. So
it'll be interesting to see if McCarver and Shannon do
any running here. I saw macarver checking with Joe Chokes
at third, so that Javier there's no one away. The
countess three and two. Let's see if macarver goes. He
did not go as them all drag three, he stuck

(01:04:33):
it off. Mardinal dug e is all over the plate
umpire stan Landi's about they called third strike to Xavier
was unhappy about the call. Mardinal's going into this inning
and let four men on base.

Speaker 2 (01:04:55):
Well, with the same situation they had while of goal
Roger Maris, if they would have sent the carver, then
it would have definitely been a double play.

Speaker 1 (01:05:04):
The Red Shandy's wisely did not send the carver.

Speaker 2 (01:05:10):
So the runners are still on first and second. Shannon
on it first, the carver on a second down Maxwell.

Speaker 1 (01:05:14):
To hit her. He might have to let that go.
The runners look out, they don't free and pulls.

Speaker 2 (01:05:19):
The dive work.

Speaker 1 (01:05:20):
I got it go. Tell us the harden at third
and tows my carver he have come. Glad. Sandy's out
of the dug out the card right now left Paul

(01:05:40):
thirty seconds for station identification. Here's what happened with the
carver on a second Red Shandy said discap to having
a say with the third base on pod Bill Heller,
with Macarver on second, Shannon on first carve are had
discp whos hiking out.

Speaker 2 (01:05:57):
We were talking about them not sending the runners so
on the first pitch to Val macwull Bred Shadney alecs
to tie the doubles, steal mccarveror a catcher has better
than average speed tried to steal third, but freehand threw
him out on a close play at third.

Speaker 1 (01:06:13):
And we had a little argument about the bug based
coach Joel Schultz and maccarbor the catcher. But it's all
over with now it's two ways dal Maxwellet hitter and
Mike Chennon on a second the store the Tigers too.
The Cardinals win the top half of the fourth inning.

Speaker 2 (01:06:27):
Earl Wilson for the Tigers, Ray Washman for the Cardinals.
So one and old picks Fowle straight back mexicount one
and one.

Speaker 1 (01:06:37):
Now event some action in this oneever, we be I
guess more action in this game than in any of
the other previous games. Bob Gibson dominated in the one
and Mickey Lolich and the Tigers.

Speaker 2 (01:06:46):
Took care of the other.

Speaker 1 (01:06:46):
But a little back and forth in this game.

Speaker 2 (01:06:48):
All though, the Tigers are the only ones that scored
two to nothing year in the fourth inning. While the
Cardinals have the reputation of being a running bobub and
they'd keep doing it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:01):
One ball, one strike on dal Max. Ball the pitch,
it's inside ball. Two what you said earlier, though, the
last couple of brows by free and he showed us
something better than he had previously.

Speaker 2 (01:07:14):
He looked like he was just a little bit too
anxious in that first game, becose.

Speaker 1 (01:07:18):
I guess when you get a brack on there, it
makes you a little anxious. You want to get to
that ball a little too bad. Sometimes. Of course, if
you don't get it out of there in a hurry,
you'd have no chance to throw him out. Two balls,
one strike, Earl Wilson, catch here as the pitch, oh
hit hard. Wilson knocked the ball down. He can't find
at night the foot the ball on a knun back
at that ball for dalal Maxwell and the Cardinals go
on the top half to four things. After three and

(01:07:40):
a half of these A players, the Tiger's two and
the statler cart knows nothing. The Cardinals have now left
five bent on base and that boar thing. Mccarvery's single
Channon walk Aavier was called out on strikes. Macarvery was
thrown off China's field, and then Earl Wilson took a
base hit away from Maxville with a fine fielding way,
and all the Tigers don't have that to nothing lead.

(01:08:02):
As we go on to the bottom of the fourth
betting and Beck we go to Khew.

Speaker 2 (01:08:05):
We reads Jack just asked you one more question, one
thing about this ball, card and the back up. Even
though they do get thrown out, they do not stop running,
do they.

Speaker 1 (01:08:13):
Well, they're not easily intimidated. They know who can do
what because of the ball. Cub has been together for
quite a while and she needs although is conservative. In fact,
we've seen very few Selman doubles heels following the Cardinals
all year long. He might see all them in his surprise,
but they never stops trying to surprise the opposition.

Speaker 2 (01:08:32):
Bank of Jack Willie Hart putting things off of the
Tigers in the bottom half.

Speaker 1 (01:08:37):
The fourth thing is the Tiger's later in this game
by a score of two to nothing.

Speaker 2 (01:08:40):
On out Kaylin's home run in the bottom half. The
third of the name Ray Washburn into the wine up
to kick fastball too high ball one Defensively for the Cardinals,
the paid the first phase tby er a second Max
Flood shot Shannon at third in the outfield, brock Blood
and maras her Ball Hip Foud the third base line and.

Speaker 1 (01:09:01):
The counters one ball in one strike, a Carver doing
of the catching, and Ray Washburn the pitching for the Cardinals.
Washburn was fourteen and eight on the year. He does

(01:09:23):
not have an overpiring fastball, good curved, sliddering, relies a
lot on control. But although I will say Jack, I've
seen him throw two or three real clip fastball stay
and he's able to reach back, and he had a
good one when he needs it. And his fastball move
is quite a bit. You're not afraid to throw it.
But he had a much better fastball until he heard
his arm a couple of years ago. Surely did. He

(01:09:44):
was a fastball pitcher exclusively. That did him. The two
and one pitch to Willie Hark, it's too high ball three?
What are your heart?

Speaker 2 (01:10:05):
With a count of three balls and one strike on him,
Jim Northrop in the on deck circle, here comes the
pits fastball one hopper or Mike Shine in the third face,
the throw with it the fada and that's all there
the heart.

Speaker 1 (01:10:18):
So after getting behind in the hole, Ray Washman, Ray
tires the tires, fluggers, what are your heart.

Speaker 2 (01:10:27):
And talking about the control of Ray Washman very good
nineteen sixty eight.

Speaker 1 (01:10:32):
Working an average of two batters every nine. And then.

Speaker 2 (01:10:41):
Jim Northrop, he flied out to write to field his
first time up, takes the best ball inside bout him
half the fourth inning. Tiger Steady in.

Speaker 1 (01:10:57):
In trot Michigan, the third game of the World Series,
fall outside.

Speaker 2 (01:11:01):
Two balls, no strikes on Jim Northam curve ball too high,
ball three, not the one for the one for eight.

Speaker 1 (01:11:20):
He's one for nine now in the series. On the
year he hit two sixty four good power, he hit
twenty one home runs. Now he runs better than.

Speaker 2 (01:11:31):
And he won for that three and old pitch. Mayle
Smith gave him the green light, and he was going
for the long one.

Speaker 1 (01:11:39):
And he had his pitch but found it off. The
count is now three and one. It's one away. M
Carver give him the signs. Washburn the kick ball.

Speaker 2 (01:11:50):
Head out in pelest for usaid, be no trouble for
little Brock. He's underneath it and takes it for out
number two. So it's two up and two down. Here
at the pout of half the fourth inning, bill for
three hands second in there, three hand in the second and.

Speaker 1 (01:12:09):
E got a based on ball.

Speaker 2 (01:12:17):
Ray Washburn almost nicked Bill Freehand with that slow curve.
That would not be anything unusual for Bill Freehan.

Speaker 1 (01:12:29):
He holds the Tiger record, the all time records for
being hit but by a pitch ball.

Speaker 2 (01:12:37):
Here's the one who know if pitchers are basketball hind
outside ball two. You and O's account on Bill Freehan,
washpuring into the wind up bastball right in there for

(01:12:57):
call strike one. Kurt Bluff in center field pulled over
a little bit in the left center blue black over
close to the line.

Speaker 1 (01:13:06):
They played Freehn as a full hitter. He did pull it,
but he popped it up.

Speaker 2 (01:13:11):
Backs fill the shot, stop going back, Rock coming in
and Rock tall part and takes it for the third out,
and that's all for freehnd. That's all for the Tigers
here in the bottom half the fourth inning. So the
score after four full of thing the Tiger's two and
the Cardinals nothing.

Speaker 1 (01:13:28):
We're going into the fifth inning of this ball game,
and Ray Washburn will be the leadoff hitter for the Cardinals,
who make no move to the contrary. So Washburn will
lead off Rock and Flood will follow Cardinals de batman
on base in every ending of the game. The first
two walked in the first, the one man was left
gone from the second inning of two out walked in
the third inning. They're two on, two out with the

(01:13:50):
Pado off there, but the Cardinals failed to score. Single
by mccarveron and walk to Shannon in the fourth inning,
but the man was out stealing, and yet another left time,
so the Cardinals have stranded five. Meanwhile, the Tigers have
had only two scoring opportunities in the casin on, one
of them in the second two on, two out and
a Raid hit her up there, and the Tigers left
two on when Don Word struck out. Then in the third,

(01:14:12):
with one out, Dick mccarlof's single and with two out,
al Caline did a two two pitch for a home run,
And so it's two and nothing is stew We reach
tells you about the fifth inning, all.

Speaker 2 (01:14:24):
Right, Jack Ray Washburn letting the Cardinals off there in
the top half of the fifth ing.

Speaker 1 (01:14:32):
That's what he did in the third inning as he
grounded out to the shark stop Nickie Stantley. Washburn all
the way for the Cardinals. Earl Wilson of course, all
the way for the Tigers. Two to nothing. The Tiger's
over the Cardinal.

Speaker 2 (01:14:46):
The first pitch to washburon the fastball in there for
call stack one. Earl Wilson has walked five and struck
out two. Here's the pitch a basketball.

Speaker 1 (01:15:02):
Looked like he was trying to put a little too
much on that way.

Speaker 2 (01:15:07):
The Trikers have two runs on two hits. The Cardinals
have no runs on two hits. One ball, one strike
on Ray Washman. The batter is now in the shadows
and the pitcher.

Speaker 1 (01:15:19):
Is in the sun. A fastball in there for a call.
Sack too, he was. That's the first time you mentioned
the shadows. The hitters, even the umpires say, it's difficult
to pick up that ball at home plate along about
this time of day. It's not tough enough to hit
the ball one or two pitches basketball rot batter. Then

(01:15:41):
Washban did not like the call.

Speaker 2 (01:15:44):
But I don't think he'll win that, Ard Bart, he's
still saying something to stand. Atlanta's the un far behind
home players. Mister Orlando's thinks that mask off.

Speaker 1 (01:15:57):
Look out, you've been taking one thing today. Both the
Cardinals and the Tigers have been on him a little bit. Boy,
it's a tough job, especially here in the series. Everybody's
playing attention to everything that happens down there in the building.

Speaker 2 (01:16:11):
I'll see if the Tigers can keep Rock off faith
this time.

Speaker 1 (01:16:16):
Well, he's been on twice. He walked to the first
thing and single in the third of things, had the
ball right back through the middle, and they cannot do it.
Jack him knock up up with the ball back making
the turn at first. I'll let's see what's happ of
the back. He stole the base in the first inning,
stole one in the third. He now has five stolen

(01:16:36):
bases in the series. That's an interesting situation, Bale. Were
the Cardinals failing two to nothing and flood up there
with that hitting room through the right side that we're
talking about earlier. For now, if Rock does get thrown out,
why then't take the Cardinals out of the innings. So
we'll see if he goes or not. Does Broc ever
get thrown out? Oh, yes he does, And I'm sure
that the Tigers might be switching out here. See if

(01:16:59):
they keep it.

Speaker 2 (01:17:02):
Rock moving around in the first base trying to bother
Earl Wilson. Here's a pitch to day goals in the
fastball fans bo he said, I last six three today,
three to four today.

Speaker 1 (01:17:18):
That's how confident that guy is, believe, because you just
don't run when you trailed two to nothing and you
got to hit her like Flood up there. Well, he
didn't take long, did he? Why I did? I know that?
He told me before the game that he has Wilson

(01:17:39):
figured with regard to his move to first base. Red
Blood's a hit her swinging a mess stock one. Oh.
Wilson is a big fellow. He's six y three, Way
is two hundred and fifteen. He has a fairly quick

(01:18:03):
move the first base. Once he decides to take that
ball home, he doesn't get rid of it too fast.
And Buck, I'm sure he knows this. One ball, one
strike on Flood. Here's the pitch. The fastball like that
at after Coss Like here, I think Wilson after the
first couple of meetings. Now Vie, he has a good

(01:18:25):
slider going born. That's what he got washburn out on strikes.
He's out in front of Flood because of it. And
now his fastball that started to be affected for him.

Speaker 2 (01:18:36):
Well, I'm sending you pitch two or three games this year,
and if he's right, he's tough to be. He's had
a lot of injuries, injured his heel hit twice, the
battered balls Turty's left knees feeling a ground ball.

Speaker 1 (01:18:57):
Mister Brock is tied another record. You know, watch it.
He may break it. Right here.

Speaker 2 (01:19:04):
Stanley's breaking his back of Rock. Wilson looking back there, Kurt,
but it with one ball, two stacks, Wilson.

Speaker 1 (01:19:11):
Here's the pitch.

Speaker 2 (01:19:12):
Lion's ride face hit out of the last deal. That
ball may be in that for extual basis. Here comes
back in the score the first run for the Cardinals
and moving in the second base with the stand up
doubles Kirk Blood.

Speaker 1 (01:19:26):
I didn't think anybody'd ever make a move. Stanley was
getting back to shore. Frock was thinking his lead blub
must have stood in the play for about thirty second
dweller Wilson was checking him out. I thought surely the.

Speaker 2 (01:19:37):
Blood would Paul tam and step off with Instead, he.

Speaker 1 (01:19:40):
Got the double and drove on the first Cardinal run.
He's the tang run and nail Smith to the mound.
Although there is no one throwing at the moment. In
the Detroit bullpen. We paused thirty seconds for station identification.
W We said earlier that there was no one throwing
in the Tiger bullpen, but now there is Pat Dobson,
the right hander and throwing for the second time. Mao

(01:20:02):
Smith talked to his pitcher and now he's in a
discussion and it appears to be a friendly one with
the played umpire Stan Landis, And now Landis goes out
to the pitcher's mouth. The Tiger scoring took place in
the third inning, and a base hit by mccallup and
a home run by Kayline Tiger's two runs on two hits.

(01:20:23):
The Cardinals of out hit Detroit four to two, and
Saint Louis just scored their first run. Washburn struck out
to start the inning. Rock single stole his third base
of the day to tie a series record three steps
in one game, and Blood doubled them home and al
Maris and Spada will have a chance to even up
the score away first Blood that was second Rogers the

(01:20:49):
barbaris by stood to Harold Wilson looking back at Flood,
Stanley checking the runner fastball just missed outside and Smith
out to talk to Wilson looks to me like he's
feeling his right leg, like he has a muscleful on
that right leg. I thought it, maybe Jack, that Mayle

(01:21:11):
Smith is out to tell Wilson, don't worry too much
about that man at second base, but the kind of
I think he did mess up. He's timing a bastball
outside ball too. On the other hand, Flood, who's on
it second base now, does not run in the fashion
or style or is offen his little Rock and with
marens Mensipada coming up, he won't be going anywhere here

(01:21:32):
in this stiff thing. Man. I'm telling you that Rock
can really upset a ball club. How he loves the
Ron and Ken Ron. Here's a bitch basketball outside ball three. Well,
the way Smide has been hitting, I wouldn't be surprised
if maybe this is another thing that Mayo Smith was
talking to Wilson about. And not to give Mary's.

Speaker 2 (01:21:53):
Anything too good to hit, and not really worry too
much of.

Speaker 1 (01:21:55):
You, Watson, because they're going to have the chance for
the double play. Also because Roger Maris has been in
a sixth World Series and he hit the sixth home runs,
so he's stopped that they did not want him to
swing that back there. So here comes Mayo Smith out

(01:22:19):
of the dugout. That's the sixth walk given up by
Earl Wilson, and I don't think the Tiger manager is
going to go any further with him. And Wilson is
peagued with himself that he didn't show better stuff, and
he's not going to get a chance to show any
more stuff today. He's coming out and that Dopson right
hander is going to take over here in relief. You

(01:22:43):
inherit a situation with flooded second base, Maris at first,
one man out, Orlando's Apeta coming up, tignles one four
and Oero on the totals and trailing in the game
as the Tigers have two two, You know that Dobson
into the contest. While we're in the top half the

(01:23:04):
fifth inning, we have runners on first and second. Blood
down at second. Roger Maris on at first, one run.
All that he in in loud Bach Do's won.

Speaker 2 (01:23:13):
Away Orlandos Paedo the hitter, the new pitcher, Pat Dobson.
He is now checking with Bill Frehand for his sign.

Speaker 1 (01:23:22):
Blood moves off second. Roger Morris about three steps off first,
moves up a little bit. Here's the pitch, fastball, bout
tips back.

Speaker 2 (01:23:31):
Why now, Jack, you and I were talking about Orlando Crpado,
about the trouble he's.

Speaker 1 (01:23:39):
Been having this year. I don't think he hitched that
ball out to right center and right field of power
like he used to. Let's seem like he's trying to
pull that ball, all right. That's where he lost the
points on his batting average after being the most valuable
player in the National League last year. Of one strike

(01:24:00):
to pat his fastball. It's how him looking two shacks up. Yeah,
from a Tiger viewpoint, he's a good man to have
up there. With regard to the double plays, babe does
he doesn't run as fast as somebody hits the wall sharply,
Dopson might get out of his ending talking about the
double plays, talking about the double play defensively for the

(01:24:23):
Tiger's cash at first, mcaull of at second, Stanley has
sharp don Ward at third. Dopson shakes his head.

Speaker 2 (01:24:34):
Didn't want that one. Now Bill Freehand gives it it
over him. He looks back at the flood and here's
the pick fastball. It's popped up real freehand. Let's set
the mask away from him. Thanks for the file.

Speaker 1 (01:24:46):
Character for out number two. He got a big man
and we were talking about the pack. He was in
his first World Series games there. He didn't bother and
do it.

Speaker 2 (01:24:57):
Doesn't seen to me like he's nervous at all. While
they got one tough man out or anticipated still has
one more to go in. Tim McCarter, the catcher, he's

(01:25:18):
plant out to center field, got a face him from
the fourth inning, was thrown out trying to steal third
on a double steal Dobson. Here's the picks fastball, inside ball.

Speaker 1 (01:25:30):
One squeeze. You called the turn on Wilson. They gave
Dobson some extra warm up pitches because Wilson departed with
a physical ailment. We're gonna have to get more details
on that later on.

Speaker 2 (01:25:43):
Church Blood on.

Speaker 1 (01:25:44):
A second, Roger Marris on it first. It's two away.

Speaker 2 (01:25:47):
We're in the top half the fifth inning and the
Cardinals trailed two to one. Jim McCarver with that closed
sanse of his Dobson looks back at Flood.

Speaker 1 (01:25:58):
Here's the pits hit at at left field. That ball
could be trouble. Look out, it's going foul. Heard Blood

(01:26:21):
going back to second Roger Maris back to first, Roger Maris,
who does not have too much speed, trying to get
a real good jump off of first. Jim McCarver.

Speaker 2 (01:26:37):
The count of one ball and one strike on him.
Pat Doopson in belief of Earl Wilson taking a little
time trying to get that out of this jam.

Speaker 1 (01:26:48):
Here's the one in one picks fastball fouled off the
right over the cardinal dugout text to count one ball
and two strikes. So Dobson, up to this point, this
little pressure kettle here has looked kind of cool. He's

(01:27:12):
ahead of him the Carver right now, one ball and
two strikes. It's two aways.

Speaker 2 (01:27:22):
Lovey Hart moved a little bit over toward the leftield line.
Jim knot of playing straight away in center. Bill Ol
Caroline tops straight away.

Speaker 1 (01:27:30):
In right field. The Carver backs out of there. Stan
Linas calls time. Now. Then the Carver backs out of
there again.

Speaker 2 (01:27:50):
Now then Dobson wants freehand to give the signers again.
He's already forgotten what he was supposed to throw.

Speaker 1 (01:27:58):
One ball, two strikes. He looks at foot. Here's the pitch,
curveball in the dirt. Hexa cop two and two at
home played right now, you could be seeing two of

(01:28:20):
the finest catchers in baseball, Jim McCarver the hitter, and
Bill Freehand during the catching two balls, two strikes, two way,
two men are. Dobson looks at fut, here's the pitch.
Ball hit out in the right field. Out hill ain't
going back. That's off the big ball. It's a hard

(01:28:42):
up for table bother with the cop tied two on,
Tim McCarver and water greeting he's getting in the next.

(01:29:04):
Cardinals dugout.

Speaker 2 (01:29:07):
Flood on it second, Maris on it first, and it
looked to me, Jack like that was a pretty good pitch.
It looked at me like it was about six inches
off the ground. And macarver lifted that ball right in
the right field see right.

Speaker 1 (01:29:22):
It was that de we We got a good look
at it, and I'm sure the Dobson will say it
was a good pitch until it was hit. John up
there now on the first pitch to hit was the ball.
But McCarver went down and got that ball and he
lofted it into the upper deck off the line maybe
fifty feet and whose ballpark for you?

Speaker 2 (01:29:43):
The Cardinals all of a sudden after trailing two to nothing,
are on top four to two. Ball hit hard off
the tops of the base, hit out in the center field.
John Nartha up put the ball, making it ton at first,
my Chennan. We still have Don McMahon, the better than

(01:30:05):
relief pitcher going in the bullpen of the Tigers.

Speaker 1 (01:30:18):
The hitter right now is Hobbyer. He's walked and he
struck out. Dobson's first pitch Geller, fastball, ser on this
strike one last series home run in mccarvery. It was
a very historic one in World Series play. Baby, Yeah,

(01:30:38):
certainly was.

Speaker 2 (01:30:39):
That was in nineteen sixty four.

Speaker 1 (01:30:42):
Against the Yankees with two men on in the tenpenning.
That's a pretty good spot. He had quite a series then,
didn't he day? He surely did have home run won
one of the three games at Gibson won in nineteen
sixty four.

Speaker 2 (01:31:03):
One ball, one strike on Hobby Air, two away Dobson
in the relief of Earl Wilson as he had to leave.

Speaker 1 (01:31:11):
The ball game.

Speaker 2 (01:31:13):
I think the cause of a full muscle in his
right leg. Mike Shennon on the first here's the pitch,
foul straight back strike two Lamar Sunday, it will be
Bob Gibson against Jenny McLean. Gibson who set up World

(01:31:34):
Series strikeout record in the first game, striking out seventeen.
He's going against Jenny McLean, who won thirty one games
during the regular season. One ball two strikes on Hobby Aer.
Shannon moved off first.

Speaker 1 (01:31:50):
Little Lowe outside ball two. So Dobson coming in here,
went away quickly, got rid of Orlando's to Pata. The
fourth place hitter, got a head up in Carver.

Speaker 2 (01:32:11):
Then he ran the cap two and two. But maccarver
hit a home run and the right keel set, there's
a fly ball.

Speaker 1 (01:32:17):
Out of the center field. Should be no trouble for
Jip knockup.

Speaker 2 (01:32:21):
That's all for Hobbyer, and that's all for the Cardinals.
But they came up with four big runs during.

Speaker 1 (01:32:26):
The top half of the fifth Andy.

Speaker 2 (01:32:27):
So after four and what happening is the play. It's
the Cardinals four and the Tigers two.

Speaker 1 (01:32:33):
Were at Tiger Stadium going into the Tiger fifth inning,
and the Cardinals are out in front of Detroit for
the score of four to two. And the Cardinal fifth
enning was Washburn struck out Rock singled stole his third
base of the ball game. A double by Blood sent
him home the first Cardinal run, making it two to
one for Kayline and Ormerdon. The third inning was a
man on when Maris walked, Earl Wilson departed, that Dobson

(01:32:55):
came in, got Tootato McCarver hit the three run homer.
Shannon sing Aavier applied out to end the fifth four
runs four. It's no airs one left. Cardinals have left
six men and the Tigers have left two Tigers bat
in the bottom of the fifth, mcmaon still throwing in
the bullpen in againting they might have a pinch hitter.
After Don worked in here against Fewey reachs.

Speaker 2 (01:33:17):
Back and Jack work letting things off the Tigers a
bottom half the fifth inning. The first pitch by Ray
Watsman is too high ball one, and as Jack told you,
we may see a pinch atter or Pat Doopson here
in the bottom half the fifth inn. Mail Smith may want.

Speaker 1 (01:33:37):
To go to Don McMahon, the letter may league pitcher
for the Tigers. He's standing with that one Avier. He
didn't say the ball he put out the shot, how
but he still throw him out. Looking out at Javier,
he's hold his glove up in front of his face.
And now then the paida has gone in to get

(01:33:59):
the sun. Now they want the sunglasses. After the horse
almost get out of the barn, walls hit off the
end of the bat and a broken bat pop fly
by Don wort On the air broke back on it
and then had to come in and field it on
the short hob and proticipated for the out. And now
we're going to have a pincherter.

Speaker 2 (01:34:17):
Tom Metchett is going to back four.

Speaker 1 (01:34:21):
Johnson and McMahon will ditch the sixth hunning to the cards.
For a minute, I thought I'd lost the base runner.
I thought he was trapping the ball jack. The color
rose from my eyeside for a while when he rode
back and we had a better look at.

Speaker 2 (01:34:35):
Him than either time three.

Speaker 1 (01:34:37):
We were not looking in the sun.

Speaker 2 (01:34:40):
Ray Washman pitching the pinch hitter, Tom matching, I'll swinging
as slack one. This little fellow a couple of years
ago and spring trending hit about four seventy eight, did
not make the Cup last year. He did not have
a good spring training and made the club curveball swent
on and fouled the first base line over coach Wai

(01:35:02):
Moses's head strike two match. You hit one of the
most dramatic home runs during the year for the Tigers,
the pen jitter the next runnings against the Baltimore Orioles
is one of the key games when the Orioles and
Tigers were really going out.

Speaker 1 (01:35:16):
Yes, Sir Jack Gamma's year was on a Friday night
and I saw the game.

Speaker 2 (01:35:22):
Two strike pitch basketball and a good one hid inside
ball one. The Tigers have two runs on only two
hits a home run by out kline. The Cardinals have
four runs on six hips fastball inside ball two. So
quickly after getting two strikes on magic, Washburn comes back

(01:35:45):
with two balls trying to get that fastball hid inside
on matching the car we're getting the side.

Speaker 1 (01:35:53):
Washburn staring down, he's ready, curveball two, ball ball three.
We all know Washburn is ahead in the game four
to two. Here in the fifth thing, it's not only
two hits.

Speaker 2 (01:36:12):
This control is not nearly as good as we've seen
him display as the match. He's upset with himself.

Speaker 1 (01:36:18):
He's not getting the ball over three two pitch on
its way, and he's struck it out.

Speaker 2 (01:36:32):
That's the third strakeout for Ray Washburn. And that's the
same pitch that Washburn through magic, and.

Speaker 1 (01:36:42):
They got two quick strikes on him.

Speaker 2 (01:36:46):
He had to go to three and two before he
finally got magic to swing at it. So that makes
two away.

Speaker 1 (01:36:52):
It brings up Tim mccallough, Dick mccallough, Sorry, got a
base hit to me, fastball too. High ball one Tomorrow
will be Gibson against Jenny McLain, game time twelve forty

(01:37:13):
five DM. Right here at the Tiger City in Hope.
You can be with us. Curveball in there for call
slack one. And that's the way Washburne pitches. He mixes
the pitches up, curveball, sliders, occasional fastball, high end tight.

Speaker 2 (01:37:39):
He never gives into the hitter. Here's the one in
one picks a good swing. Foul tip.

Speaker 1 (01:37:44):
Ip McCarver right in the mask, kind of shook him
up a little bit. Yes, at game time tomorrow by
one o'clock week come on the air at twelve forty
five eastern daylight time.

Speaker 2 (01:38:09):
One ball two stakes. Here's the pitch, fastball just missing
makes the count two and two. As you've noticed, Washburn's
getting ahead of the hitters then't trying to make.

Speaker 1 (01:38:23):
Him go for that bad pitch curve ball way out
for a home player. Hey here, there was a thrilling
moment day game out of Candlestick Mark in the eighteenth

(01:38:43):
foot Rember when we saw Washburn.

Speaker 2 (01:38:45):
Throw that no hitter.

Speaker 1 (01:38:46):
Against the can ends right after Gaylord Perry had fits
one name before back to the back. Here's the three
and two pitch football hits on fear back ball colls
way out in that about right there. So with two

(01:39:28):
ways count friend two on mccaullary, who has good five
hit sixteen hold runs for the year. That is good.

Speaker 2 (01:39:38):
A leadoff man hit.

Speaker 1 (01:39:40):
A fastball and headed hard. Nicky Stanley her ball in
there for all like one. So the Tigers making four
to three heyline long one and the third of the
McCallum hit one here in the bottom of the basketball

(01:40:03):
too high ball, one one ball and one strike two
ways the Baker's day. We have hit five home runs
in the last two games at the Being's Life by
Bob Gibson.

Speaker 2 (01:40:17):
There everything the people said they were on it.

Speaker 1 (01:40:19):
Yes they are.

Speaker 2 (01:40:24):
One ball, one strike on standard basketball, too high.

Speaker 1 (01:40:27):
Bar two red. Chandy's moving around of that cardinal bug
eye two ball one stake fit curveball that's got the
outside one or two and two. Always see some fellows

(01:40:54):
going down to the bullpen.

Speaker 2 (01:40:58):
Don Willison right handerson warm up the smu her ball
just miss just a little bit outside the dog friend too,
so Ray Washburn, what's the trend too on not you.

Speaker 1 (01:41:15):
Struck him out?

Speaker 2 (01:41:17):
Trin too on mccallumy at the home run, he's now
fren two on Mickey Stanley. Here he's ready here the
pits her ball.

Speaker 1 (01:41:28):
H inside bow back Steve Carlton the left hander, Ron
Willis the right hander throwing in the Cardinal Bollman and
Don McMahon the right hander. Pretty troit getting ready to
come into the game in the sickness. Sammy hits a

(01:41:50):
lot of balls in the right field. He's capable of
hitting home run.

Speaker 2 (01:41:53):
He had eleven home runs on the air bow hit
a Washton's shoe or what dissipated he left on the
tag and texting the set. Tough break for Vicky Stanley.
But that's off with Standy and off of the Tigers.
You're at the bottom half the fifth and in they
scored one run, So the score after five full and
as the Cardinals four and the Tiger's.

Speaker 1 (01:42:11):
Three seconds for station. We're at Tiger Stadium to score
four to three in action pack, third game of the
nineteen sixty eight World Series. Who're going to the sixth nining?
Don McMahon comes into pitch and pee wee Reeves will
tell you about him. And then Tiger fifth ninning. Ray
Washburn got the first two, including the pinch hitter Tom Magic,

(01:42:34):
and then Dick mccallaughf hit a home run. It was
the second base hit of the ball game. Then Stanley
wrapped one back to the mound that sureley would have
been a base hit, but it was off Washburn's shins
and bounced right over to Spato for the out. It
would have been interesting Peewee with Stanley on base and Kayline,
who had Howard earlier coming up to the plate representing
the lead run, would have been more excitement, but Stanley

(01:42:57):
got a tough break on the evall. Now, McMahon, we've
known him a long time, have we, yes, In fact,
I hit against this fall. I'm not saying that he's
that old or I'm a young or what it is.
Don McMahon, he's thirty eight years old.

Speaker 2 (01:43:16):
This is his eighth series games, six of them he
played with the Braves in nineteen fifty seven fifty eight, but.

Speaker 1 (01:43:21):
This is his first game of this series in the year.
On the year, he had five and two records, had
a good turn one average one point nine eight well
a Tiger's trail four to three.

Speaker 2 (01:43:34):
When the top half of the sixth inning, Dal Maxwell
the first hit for the Cardinals, Don McMahon's first pitch
to Maxwell a fastball blown outside ball one.

Speaker 1 (01:43:53):
Ball head off the right side end. The mccallif up
at the ball, puts the ball over the cash and
that's all for Nxville. When I hit against Don McMahon,
who's now pitching for the Tigers, he was primarily a
fastball pitcher and had a good one.

Speaker 2 (01:44:14):
But I understand now that he polls a sinker quite
a bit, hoops the ball down. Still has a good fastball.

Speaker 1 (01:44:29):
Ray Washburn the picture for the Cardinals a hitter. Ray
is grounded out and stuck out. He said, his third
time up McMahon into the wind up. Here's the picture. Fastball.
I didn't side ball one.

Speaker 2 (01:44:59):
McMahon, the pitch all head in the right field out
Caline cooks down his glasses right.

Speaker 1 (01:45:04):
Down ticket.

Speaker 2 (01:45:07):
Or out number too, But ma'am.

Speaker 1 (01:45:34):
May leave Danny McLean in the first game.

Speaker 2 (01:45:38):
I here he is if the third game, pitching a
little block with two aways, blackball him up.

Speaker 1 (01:45:43):
The call black white block is walk single of the third, single.

Speaker 2 (01:45:54):
Of the fifth And every time he's been on he's
sole in the base fastball. Let me have hop two.
And we've talked about it so much even before the
series started. And Jack Buck, who has seen this fellow for.

Speaker 1 (01:46:12):
So many times, we must keep this man off of
the sacks and the expect to beat this Cardinal ball cluck.

Speaker 2 (01:46:21):
I think it's worth while pointing out that the.

Speaker 1 (01:46:23):
Cardinals didn't score in this game until Brock got on baseball.

Speaker 2 (01:46:26):
The third time and that fifth thing, and he really motivates.

Speaker 1 (01:46:31):
This ball cluck. One ball, two strikes on block. Then
he started down, says stuck out of the us. He
bound hipped the ball around the Jets and that's all
for Brock. And that's off of the Cardinals.

Speaker 2 (01:46:44):
Here the top half of hipp after.

Speaker 1 (01:46:46):
Five and a half, he was a play. It's the
Cardinals four and the Tigers three to the bottom of
the sixth thing. The Tigers have made three runs on
three it's they've hit two home runs, one by Cayline
with a man on one by McCullough. Cardinals made four
runs on six hits and leave four to three were
the runs on a home run by the Carver and
a lot of noise that now Caline steps in and

(01:47:07):
you here from Jelly Reech.

Speaker 2 (01:47:11):
I'll say Jack bottom half or sixth thing out Cayline stepping.

Speaker 1 (01:47:14):
In there, he'll be full up a norm fashioned Willie Harkin.

Speaker 2 (01:47:19):
Right out to the left and had a home run
in the left field seat in the third inning with
mccalli varm Washburn in the wind up to kick the
basketball Hine outside as Caline.

Speaker 1 (01:47:32):
Made a fluff the front as Shannon was about four
steps in the back of the bag. I don't think
even he wants to He just wants to get Shannon
in a little bit more. Shannon does move in. That's
ball in there for callstake one one ball one. Shy

(01:47:52):
Online with the fellow that's never played in the minor league,
came up as a youngster at eighteen years old. They
was a club for sixteen years. That a dandy. He
is pitches outside ball two and This is one of
the reasons the nail sniff.

Speaker 2 (01:48:15):
But Mickey Stanley, it's sharp stuff to get this fellow
in the lineup. And that's bad of it is that
he's using little cap. But I still will have to
hear the flip over the Topato and they just sniffed
Klin at first base. Tevie.

Speaker 1 (01:48:30):
This is the time of day.

Speaker 2 (01:48:31):
It's some six minutes past three o'clock when.

Speaker 1 (01:48:35):
Those shadows about halfway between the pitcher's mine a home
play bigare really difficult for the hitter if.

Speaker 2 (01:48:42):
He's not to say that they're not going to be
any hitting, but whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:48:45):
They were accomplished with the bat for me against some
additional lives. You are right. Arm Cash is a hitter.

Speaker 2 (01:48:55):
He's over to today Washburn, the kicks, the Pitts basketball
hot inside ball one run away, Spada on it down
at first base.

Speaker 1 (01:49:09):
Is just a battle on that Fowler. He is really
garding in that first base line. Her ball bowing outside
ball two. The Tigers scored two in the third one
in the Pets for there are three runs and Cardinals
scored four in the top half. The Pests swaying a

(01:49:29):
foul off the right kay.

Speaker 2 (01:49:32):
I think you'd have to say that Washburn.

Speaker 1 (01:49:34):
Is a head in this game four three without his
best pitch. The teams a per ball just hasn't been
getting in the strips of the court.

Speaker 2 (01:49:44):
Two balls, one shike on non Cash. Here's the pitch
basketball outside ball three. Well, Don Cash, Jack is a
very good fastball hitter. Let's see if Washington will go
in the curveball the fastball here with the count three

(01:50:06):
and one on the Cash had twenty five home runs
during the season.

Speaker 1 (01:50:10):
Lord, what a riffle he had at that fastball. How
bendy he'd like to have that one back. Dick Boo's
the right hand or warming up for Saint Louis. What's
to be joined by another pitcher, Joe Hunter left hand
lay in two pitchs foul back. The count remains three
and two. Joe Hunter a left hander, and Dick Hugh's

(01:50:37):
the right headed warming up in the cardinal bullpen. The
no action in the tiger bull been. Here's the three
and two beds her ball then ain't started to hold
out for too long.

Speaker 2 (01:51:24):
Well, you can hear the fans calling on wonderful Willie.
Here Willie Hart.

Speaker 1 (01:51:31):
Stepping in that batter's box. They get in the hand, and.

Speaker 2 (01:51:35):
I guess Billy.

Speaker 1 (01:51:36):
Muppett the pitching goes for the Cardons, So will he
come up here?

Speaker 2 (01:51:41):
And he wants to say a few words to his pitcher,
Ray Washburn. Mcarver's out there talking to him too. They
could be giving the corner and Dick Hughes a chance.

Speaker 1 (01:51:53):
I'm sure that they are going to take him out
with all those goes Muppet. Now he's going back, the
Carver coming back behind the plate. This want us slow
him down a little bit.

Speaker 2 (01:52:04):
The lady remind him how to picture this fellow Willie Hart,
what's he done today? He's walked and grounded out, run
away non cash on his first the Tiger's trailer.

Speaker 1 (01:52:18):
This game four to three, and the power hitter up there,
Willie Hart, here's the pit fastballs too high, and Willie,
here's a fellow that gotted tiger started over in Saint

(01:52:39):
Love and they hit a whole month for the first
run of the Tiger. There's a round bowl down the
third base line, coming back to the first base Norm Cash,
one ball, one strike on Willie Hart. It's one away.
Mike Shannon playing a couple of steps off the line.

(01:53:03):
Maxical straight away for Harden. Ollierre pulled over part second
and Sapada first phase holding Norm cash on one ball,
one strike, here's a bit outside ball two. The next
hitter is Jim Nthrap. I've noticed Pointer, the left hander

(01:53:30):
is throwing a little bit harder and a little bit
faster down in that bull pen. So don't be surprised
if Harton gets on here. We may see Joe Horner
come in this ball game. Two balls, one strike home
really Harden, Norm Cash on it first, taking a sharp leave.
Worsman looks over there. Here's the pit. He starts, checks

(01:53:50):
me swaying its outside pre Wi well for the count

(01:54:12):
twenty one. Willie Harton checked for these Coach Tony Couchanella
down at third, and I'm sure he has the green light,
which is bits that he likes. There's the pit. It's
too how paw Paul Wey here comes bill him up

(01:54:48):
at the pitching coach for the Cardinals. That will be
all or Ray Washburton. We both pitchers who started this game.
Parl Wilson well the Tigers, he's no longer round. We've
seen two since he left the game. Back Dobson down.

Speaker 2 (01:55:10):
McMahon now then Ray Washman the start up the Cardinals.
He's been taken out and they're bringing in the left
pender Joe Hunter. Joe Hunter comes into the ballgame. This
is the second series appearance.

Speaker 1 (01:55:24):
We worked in the eighth to one Nicky Lowlich Tiger
victory and hit a very unusual wild streak for Horner.
He usually displays good control coming in out of the bullpen,
but he pitched only one inning and he walked threehim in.
The runs were not charged to Joe. He's the eighth
relief man of the Saint Louis Cardinals and he'll be

(01:55:45):
faced with the companter and give him North Roop. A
left handed batter, Dick Hughes continues to throw down on
the bullpen. John McMahon is the picture as of the
moment for the Tigers, who trailed by only a run.
They have the tying run on a second that's cash
and the potential lead run on at first base in
the person of Willie Horton. Now Larry Jasher, another left hander,

(01:56:09):
takes the place of corner in the Cardinal bullpen. Corner
he used to be in the Houston organization when drafted
by the Cardinals. He's been invaluable to them in the
past couple of years, and he's capable of working four
or five days a week out of that bullpen. He
just cut this with a wild.

Speaker 2 (01:56:27):
Pets, but off the attention of the Tiger fans.

Speaker 1 (01:56:30):
One like that but really hurts sat Ood.

Speaker 2 (01:56:34):
Do you think he may be throwing that for effect?
With Jim northa sene close to all play.

Speaker 1 (01:56:38):
I think Jello he had the other day Thursday. Joe
just happy to give the ball over, has a good slider,
good fast ball, is not particularly adapt at keeping the
runners close to the base, and the left handers get
pretty good cuts at him too, so he depends on
putting the ball in certain spots, notably with that slider.

(01:57:00):
Talking about the base run and I don't think that'll
be too much of the problem, William right, Nos, larm
passes on the second and will they hart on it first.
They do not have two much speed and they're not
a in the habit of trying this deal Bay, so
he won't have to worry about down. Joe Hunter comes
a little bit sad on he keeps that ball away

(01:57:22):
from the left. That hitter, he could be a little tough.
It's one away runners on first and second the bottom
half the sixth ning honor enemy leaf of Ray Watshman.
Here's the first pitch. Basketball just got that at that
honors strike Wine. Most of these pitchers, most pitchers to day,

(01:57:45):
try to keep that ball away from the hitters once
you get hurt. On is that ball on the inside
and part of the play it. Here's the pitch and
bound straight back strike too. So quickly Horner gets on
the top of Jim Knacker. And Jack was telling you
the other day he came in he couldn't find the

(01:58:06):
place an arm Cash on a second will be harping
on it. First, Bill Freehand and the arm netscle two
shacks on Jim Knocker corners ready looks back at Cash.

(01:58:29):
Here's the pitch. The little ladies to pop up. It
will be an Nfield fly roll Hobby here Texas north
of the automatically.

Speaker 2 (01:58:37):
Out and he really damn him that one track as.

Speaker 1 (01:58:41):
He broke the van right off in the hands of Northwold,
and he got the left handed batter, and now he
asked to get the right handed batter. Meanwhile, Bill Freehands,
who has walked and flying to left in this game,
is up there looking for his first series head, he's
all for seven. I want to stop. This would be
for the base knock as far as the Tigers are concerned,
and this is a fellow that they have called so

(01:59:04):
many times. It's like a ball club as their leader.
He led the Tigers and games played in sixty eight
and a catcher one hundred and fifty five. But unusual,
the first pitch the field of.

Speaker 2 (01:59:20):
Freehand was hie outside ball one.

Speaker 1 (01:59:28):
Well, the Saint Louis catcher Ki McCarver hit a three
run over with two men out. Now the Tiger catcher
Bulle freehand is up in the comfortable spot.

Speaker 2 (01:59:40):
The Tigers trail four to three Bill freehand account of
one ball on those sites.

Speaker 1 (01:59:48):
Here's the pitch fastball outside ball two that next hitter
down work.

Speaker 2 (02:00:01):
Jast left hand are going in the bullpen along with
tip Ques for the cardinal.

Speaker 1 (02:00:11):
The two and old pitch to Bill three hand as
a ball hit up the left field, but it's going foul.
And about this time, knowing Bill threehand, I imagine he's
a little bit anxious right now. He would like to
get that first base hit, kind of break the eyes.

(02:00:38):
He does not have a basic in the series as
Jack told you hold for seven. He walked a couple
of times, corner, taking a little time. Two balls in
one strike. He's ready.

Speaker 2 (02:00:50):
Here's the pitch bound straight back, two and two. They
played three hand the pull yah silver card right center,
flood over and left center and blue rock forward.

Speaker 1 (02:01:13):
The left field line. Two balls, two strikes, two away,
two men on cash at second heart first corner sets
looks back at Cash. Here's the picks. Another bow, straight back,

(02:01:34):
Party with a kind of two strikes on him, got
the ball away and freehand was thinking right with him,
pee wee. He wasn't going to play into his hands
and try to pull the ball. He was going the
other way, just trying for the base hit. Two balls,
two strikes, Cash taking his shot made at second. He'll

(02:02:00):
come up with the fitch. Now he moves up a
little bit, so does Hard. Here's the pitch.

Speaker 2 (02:02:05):
The ball head out of the last year.

Speaker 1 (02:02:07):
That ball will be caught by lou Fox coach. For
the foul, I mean close to the fens. And that's
all for three hand. And that's all for the Tigers.

Speaker 2 (02:02:15):
Here in the bottom half the sixth innings, you after
a full six innings that the Cardinals four and the
Tigers three half the seventh and eight.

Speaker 1 (02:02:24):
And of course all you people know now working with
me today, Jack Buck. He's been with the Cardinals. That's
nineteen fifty four, and he knows he's faceball and backed up.
Even seen him work out with the Cardinals. It's the player.
You're working with him. Come on back in here, Jack, Okay,
be we quite a blog game. The Cardinals totals at
the end of six innings of four to six and
zero and the Tiger totals are three three and oh,

(02:02:48):
we're gonna watch John McMahon the third Detroit holler of
the day. Don Wilson started. Three runs were charged to
Wilson in the ball game, one to Pat Dobson. Don
McMahon came on in the sixth and set the Cardinals
down in order. He'll pitch to Flood, Marris and Spada.
Is we go into the late stages of the game.
We'd start the seventh inning. Blood drove in the first
Cardinal run. He walked, he filed out, and he doubled

(02:03:09):
in the fifth inning and drove home a run. First
pitch to Flood, right handed batter taps at Powell as
McMahon the right hander made his first pitch strike one,
Gibson him and clean tomorrow one o'clock starting time, Eastern
daylight time and broadcast time twelve forty five. A lot

(02:03:30):
to talk to you about tomorrow with those two working.
The next delivery, the flood is on the way and
he swings in a plot ball a right center field
and that's an extra base hit. Maybe it is cut
off by Cayline. Bloods trying for two and now goes
back to first. Blood started for a second turn around
and came back as Cayline got to the ball, and Blood,

(02:03:50):
fearful of his arm, got about it almost halfway a
second and came back. The throw was a little bit
off fine, it would have been close. I would say that,
but ideas.

Speaker 2 (02:04:01):
But then he remembered how Kaylan control and Kaylan did throt.

Speaker 1 (02:04:06):
But buzz may have had a chance to be kept going.
Blug's on it first. There was nobody out here in
the seventh thing, and Roger Marris is the batter against McMahon.
That's the first hit off McMahon, the second hit for
Blood in the game. Maris has struck out and walked
twice and scored a run. He has hitting room through
the right side, a half swing and a pop time
might drop for a base head. It does an extra

(02:04:27):
vase hit, blood hits for third, maris for second, and
it has a pop fly double with nobody out. What
a bad break for mcmah. A half swing, a check
swing by Marris, got the heavy end of the bat
on the ball and it dropped well beyond the reach
of Don Word at third base, and the Cardinals admitted

(02:04:48):
second and third. Nobody out, so paid to the batter
and Mayo Smith out of the dugout boy. Bad break
for Detroit, well Jack.

Speaker 2 (02:04:57):
Those are the kind of hits that really break a
pitcher's back. And see when that ball was hit McMahon
the look on his face and on Don wirdspace that
he knew at third.

Speaker 1 (02:05:07):
Base and he had no chance to get it and
flood on it first. Who can fly? I have no
trouble coming into third and.

Speaker 2 (02:05:14):
Maras he decided that he could make two, and Stanley
made a play for him at second base, but not
in time. So now that we have runners on second
and third and the Tigers are back in trouble.

Speaker 1 (02:05:25):
Tigers have two pitchers who just started to throw down
on the bullpen. I doubt that either one of them
would be ready at this point. Darryl Patterson is a
right hander warming up, and John Hiller is south paws
along side, and Mayo Smith takes a little time out
there in the mound to give the bullpen for time
to get ready. But McMahon will stay in there and
pitcht Sipada, who's open three in the ballgame, runners at

(02:05:47):
second and third, nobody out seven gunning. Cardinal's already leading
four to three in the ballgame, and the Tigers are
in a jam. McMahon will work off the pullin up.
The Tiger infield comes in crying for the plate, at
the plate unplooded the event of a ground ball, I'll

(02:06:07):
feel deep to the left for Cupada. The wind up
by McMahon swung on a nut scribe and left feel
it might be gone. It is a pre run home run. Parsapada,
I ain't a Supeda who's been waiting for a big
hit in World Series play lasted a pree run homer,

(02:06:30):
the second Cardinal pre run homer of the actadom.

Speaker 2 (02:06:33):
And the Storm mounts to seven two three. Well, Spada,
as we said before, has had not too much luck
in the series. But when he came into the home
plate there, Jack, you saw him, and we did. He
just took one big leaf and dived on that home plate,
and you.

Speaker 1 (02:06:52):
Can see how happy he was in that dug out
over there. We're looking right in there and they're having
a ball, a big hit five Sapada hardenal Nolly the
Tigers by the score of seven to three. We've had
four home runs in the game McCarver and three run
homer Soapada and three run homer Flood as the other
rbi al Calon for Detroit, a two run homer in

(02:07:14):
the third, and Dick McCollough the bases empty home run
in the fifth. So all of the Tiger runs and
been accounted four with home runs. And into the ball
game comes the right hander Darrel Patterson to become the
fourth Tiger picture of the day. And as he warms up,
we pause thirty seconds for station night interpretation. This is
w JR. Detroit. This is Willie Hoyden, Keep earing your

(02:07:36):
home clean and helpless. It's one of with a humidified
properly call by a member of the Bellaheating, NA cooland Bureau.

Speaker 1 (02:07:58):
McCarthy and Music Hall six to nine weekdays on w
j R.

Speaker 2 (02:08:05):
W I'm a big seventh inning here for the Cardinals,
and there's no one out, and they have scored three runs,
a single flood, a blue couple, a check swing by
Roger Morris down and left the old line, and a
home run by Orlando Spetta.

Speaker 1 (02:08:20):
You know, the big thing about that pop double by
Maris he Wu is the fact that didn't give Mayo
Smith the chance to get anybody ready in the bullpen,
or even had he wanted someone other than McMahon to
pitch to Sapeti, He just didn't have time to get
anybody ready. It happened pretty fast, and he surely did,
and I imagine the Mayo was wishing that they had

(02:08:41):
a couple of more minutes to get Patterson ready. Only
now was Patterson ready and he comes into pitch to
the left handed batter McCarver Flood's base. It was a
solid base knock, and then the double by Roger Marris.
A pop fly and a check swing fareby about five

(02:09:01):
feet will well beyond third base for a double. Now,
Darryl Patterson are hard throwing right hander into the contest.
Nobody on, Nobody on as he takes over, and Macarver,
Shannon and Navier will be coming up. The Cardinals has
founded out nine hits and made seven runs, Tigers three
runs on three hits, and there's been no errors in
the game. We're in the seventh. The Carver has fled out, singled,

(02:09:28):
and hit a three run over Patterson's sixty four, two
hundred pounder from toe House, California won two and lost
three during the regular season turn around average of two
point one two, which is quite good for a relief pitcher.
His first pitch is low inside to Mcarver, left handed batter,

(02:09:49):
ball one. Well.

Speaker 2 (02:09:58):
I'm sure as the folks heard read everything they.

Speaker 1 (02:10:00):
Did with regard to the series. I heard some people
say that they thought the Cardinals would do some hitting
as well as the Tigers. In this park. There's a
high pop fly on the infield by Macarver. That'll be
the first out of the inning, Don worked behind the
pitcher's mound, has it for the other Macarver pumps out.
He's two for four and the hitters Shannon.

Speaker 2 (02:10:20):
Well, that was the first home run or Orlandos Fado
in his fifteenth Series game. Jack, I just like to
say one thing about this young pitcher on the mount
out there right now.

Speaker 1 (02:10:30):
Darryl Pattison. There's anyone that can come close to Bob
Gibson's fastball. This young fellow has it. He has a
real good fastball and then it tails it on right
hand and hitters pitchers to Shannon and he jams in
the ground ball the third fair ball, feel it by
word low throw it out as Cash came up with
the player. Don Ward made a good play charging in
on the slow roller by Shannon threw the ball in

(02:10:52):
the dark and Cash helped him out, and there are
two gone. Most people talk about Cash because they know
about his hitting, be we would he's not American League
in fielding. Many times he's good with that glock, Yes
he is. They kitty have ever want the walie call
him and takes the pitch. Low ball one.

Speaker 3 (02:11:12):
It's the paida charging him from first base Shannon just
sort of stop and go at third. There's a butt
to a third fielded by Shannon. He will go to
first base to hobb the air covering. It's a secondrifice
by or calon the third and on the second goes cash.

Speaker 1 (02:11:36):
Well.

Speaker 3 (02:11:36):
The Tigers have runners at second and third. One man
out in the battle will be North.

Speaker 1 (02:11:49):
He's good with that glock, yes he is.

Speaker 2 (02:11:52):
They kitty have ever want the Wali call him more
warm glove and says made by an f But he
is a good fielder.

Speaker 1 (02:11:57):
He gets these hands on that ball. He comes up
with it. Patterson has retired the first two and he
takes on Avier. Now with the base is empty, hoole.
He takes a ball in the dirt wall. What in
the top half of the seventh thinning and the Tigers
are going to have to come from behind if they're
gonna win this third game of the series. They trail
seven to three. They'll have the talent of their batting

(02:12:17):
order up in the seventh with John work due to
lead off and then Patterson. They'll pitch to Avier high
and it's fall to avierre is over two in the
game with the walks. Patterson is the fourth Tiger pitcher
Wilson allowed three runs, Dobson won and McMahon three. Washburn

(02:12:41):
worked less than six innings, gave three runs, three hits,
struck out.

Speaker 2 (02:12:44):
Three and walk four for Saint Louis two and Old Javier,
and they'll wind up the right hander fires, swung on
and tap.

Speaker 1 (02:12:59):
Fowls third base. Joe Schultz coaching there. Joe Schultz, Cardinal coach.
Most likely we'll be going to Seattle next year to
manage the new franchise in the American League. Turns out
to be we that Joe Schultz was a bat boy
for Tony Coucinello in nineteen twenty eight. They've been around

(02:13:19):
to uh. That was in Danville, Illinois. The pitch to
Java are swung on, flyball center field, north rook rough
back came in, almost slipped under the ball and has
it for the Art Pamier flies to center. Three runs
on three. That's seven inning stretch time. The score of
the Cardinals seven, the Tiger's three.

Speaker 2 (02:13:44):
Fact, we're going into the bottom half of the seventh
inning and the Tiger has better make the move. The
first hitter will be don Work and of course, trailing
by a score of seven, to three.

Speaker 1 (02:13:55):
Yo. Smith probably hates to take out Daryl Patterson if
he looks so sharp there for to try to get
back of this ballgame. And I'm seeing the on deck
circle a young fellow the name of Wayne Comer, and
the on dexicle they'd called him back. Now, I was
just wondering. Joe Hunter, as a rule, if I.

Speaker 2 (02:14:10):
Remember correctly, does not pitch too many innings, though he's
a sharp man. But like one or two days, he
has two pointings to go or three pointing to go.

Speaker 1 (02:14:19):
You're right, Dewez's in there only for a couple of
innings at the tail end of a ball game. He's
already pitched two thirds of an inning, and if if
he's to finish this game, he'll have more than three
innings to work. So we shall see faces the right
end at battered. Don Wort corner or left hander Word
is off for two first pitches over but low ball one.

(02:14:39):
We're in the Tigers seventh in Saint Louis leeds Detroit
seven to three. Tiger's led at one time with a
score of two to nothing. The pitch from Horner to
Wort swung on and messed, and it's one and one
word is fanned and grounded out. We have a pinch

(02:15:00):
hitter waiting on deck, Wayne Coomer, enough you're lu com
e r. Looks like he'll be hitting for Patterson. Horner
brings it to the plate on one in one. It's
a strike call at the knees on the outside corner
and the cart and the left hander is out in
front of down work one and two, McLean and gives
in tomorrow. We hope you'll tune us in again one

(02:15:21):
o'clock game time here in Detroit, broadcast time twall forty
five eastern daylight. The pitch low inside two and two,
it'll be work comber and then McCall it. Corner walked
off the pitcher's mound so that he could wet his fingers.

(02:15:44):
Now goes into the wind up. Work takes it ball
three and Horner thought he had strike three and Mcarver
is really upset with a call. The pitch was down
around the knees on the inside corner and the count
runs to three and two. Hill are warming up in
the bullpen. The left hander will be the next Tiger

(02:16:05):
pitcher three and two in the lead off hitter. Tigers
would like to get him on foow out of play
into the upper deck. Now bouncing downstairs. The attendants here
today in Tiger Stadium, Betroit, fifty three thousand, six hundred
and thirty four are very comparable to the crowds at

(02:16:26):
Bush Stadium in Saint Louis Honor. With a three to
two pitch, coming Wirt swings fly ball right field. Mara's
coming in, got a good jump on the ball, makes
an easy catch and there's one out. Maris saw that
ball all the way. So evidently the sun in right
free was not too difficult, do we now? I think

(02:16:47):
it's moved around a little bit. Now I shouldn't give
him any.

Speaker 2 (02:16:50):
Problem, of course, Roger Maris, he's always noted for his
home run power. But seeing this fellow play numerous time
of the yanked, he is a good outfielder.

Speaker 1 (02:17:01):
I'll see. We have a little action down on the
bath out of the Cardinals. Now Dick Hughes is back up,
and so is Steve Carlton. A left hander. Wayne Comber,
the batter he's probably had one home run during the
regular season, a right handed hitter, he takes a fastball
high from Horner. Ball on. We're in the bottom of
the seventh inning and the Cardinals lead Detroit by the

(02:17:21):
score of seven to three, third game of the series.
The next delivery swung on base head into center field
off the bat of Comber. He comes off the bench
to single here with one out, and the Tiger fans
makes some noise. Arres Divick mccauleff, who's got a home

(02:17:42):
run in the fifth inning and already has two hits
in the game, and he is five out of twelve
in the series.

Speaker 2 (02:17:49):
Or doesn't suppose me too much, Jack, This fellow is
watch him all year and he lacks this sharp lat
field fence and he gets his pitch.

Speaker 1 (02:17:59):
He's got his much powers anyone on this ball club.
He's facing a left hander for the first time today,
a lead by Comber off the first base. The pitch
it straight called horner, gets out in front where the
Cardinals leading by four runs, so Fada is not holding
the runner close with a left handed batter at the plate.
McCaul had drove in two runs against Steve Carlton, a

(02:18:22):
left hander, in the second game Thursday in the Saint Louis.
The pitch coming and it swung on and filed back
and out of play. Let's strike two. I imagine, Babe
that with mccaullo's hitting stands, a wide open style he employees.
He gets a pretty good look at the south books. Yes,
he does his right foot.

Speaker 2 (02:18:44):
They've compared him so many times to a great hitter
he used to be with the New York Giants from Melott.
His right foot kind of goes in the buckle of
a bit because you notice he keeps those hips in there.

Speaker 1 (02:18:55):
That's means he gets all that power. It's toughing from
the hit, that outside pitch, the delivery hi way high god.
On one and two, as Horner waisted a pitch, McCullough
wanted the umpire to check the base ball. San Landis
does so it stays in play. Runner first base Camber
went out seven Tony seven to three. Tiger's trailing Steve

(02:19:20):
Carlon the left hander, Dick Hughes, the right hander, and
the Cardinal bullpen killer watching the action from the Tiger bullpen.
A lead by the runner and the pitch mccalluff swings,
pops it up in the infield. That'll be the second out.
Hoby here into the outfield, grass has it two men gone.
McCallin pops out and the hitter of Mickey Stanley was

(02:19:43):
all for three in the ball game. We robbed of
a base hit back in the fifth. Thing is smack
back up the middle, hit the pitcher Washburn on the
leg and bounced over to the first baseman. Burn out.
It's seven of three and Stanley could make it close
if you could grab one here. Homer at first two out,

(02:20:10):
Owner looks to first base and pitch. It's the way
high outside Baha in the cardinal. Late thenning it'll be
the tail end of the batting owner Maxwell and the
pitcher and then lou brock Wort started this inning with
a fly ball to right caught by Maris Comer, came

(02:20:32):
off the benchmin single mccallar popped out. Stanley takes it
high ball too, Ricky Stanley playing short stuff. They put
Stanley in the class with regard to his center building
with Willie Mays, Kurt Flood, Jim Pearsall and all of

(02:20:54):
the other good ones that you can name during the
past decade or so. On two and all, he'll be going,
I mean, he takes it high ball three from Harvard
of the mine to talk to his pitchers now cal
and he's waiting on deck, and the Tiger fans could
have something.

Speaker 2 (02:21:09):
To cheer about in the city. Yes, they could hit
a home run a third inning. And this fellow, he
didn't play a whole lot this year. He had a
lot of injuries, Kaylon there, but he had ken home
run and he is capable of putting the Tigers right
back of this ball game. And as you know, Jack,
the Tigers have pulled a lot of ball games out

(02:21:29):
of the fire from the seventh inning all into the ninth.

Speaker 1 (02:21:33):
It's been their trademark. Here's the three nothing pitching Stanley
takes to strike three and one. He was taking all
away with the Tigers trailing by four runs, the score
seven to three. Or in the seventh omer, it first
two out owner is ready to deliver his on three

(02:21:53):
and one, it's a four. Joe Horner, who in this
hitting gave up his first hit after he failed the
wash burned out. In the sixth Hunting now issues his

(02:22:15):
first walk, and so the Taggers have been given five
bases on balls today Nick partners have been given the
sixth walk. So a big part of this context now
kline the batter why the left did a two run
homer in the third and grounded out his next time.
He had four hits in the series. The pit swung

(02:22:36):
on foul back and he was going to along with
this game already two hours and forty five minutes old,
because of the numerous walks and long counts and the scoring,
along with the extra care that the player's taken a
game of this importance. Kay Lion, a right handed batter

(02:22:58):
battling the south board Joe with two on, two out
in the Tigers seven seven three Saint Louis, Kayline could
make it a one run ball game. The pointer ordinarily

(02:23:19):
does not allowed many home run balls. The pitch coming
swung on and grounded to IV the air PULLI has
it force out at second. The ending is over. Kayline
forces Stanley, who in the seventh thay Tigers leave two
on the stranded six. At the end of seven it
is Saint Louis seven and Detroit three. Part of the

(02:23:43):
top half the eighth thinning of the new pitcher of
the Tigers, ven Pella, by the name of John Hiller.

Speaker 2 (02:23:50):
He's six feet tall, way a hunt of eighty five
pounds barn in Duluth, Minnesota. I've been in pitch a
few times I know one thing he does.

Speaker 1 (02:24:03):
The good basketball, a good curve. He has no trick pitches.

Speaker 2 (02:24:08):
The first hitter for the Cardinals.

Speaker 1 (02:24:11):
Will beat down Maxwell the shark stop. He'll be followed
by the pitcher, Joe Hunter, and then lou Block. Okay, Jack,
hey boy. It is Maxville leading off against John Hillier,
the left hander. First softball employed by Nail Smith, manager
of the Tigers today.

Speaker 2 (02:24:31):
And we go into the eighth inning.

Speaker 1 (02:24:32):
Saint Louis Gorge four and the fifth, three of them
in a home run by mccarverer. Three in the seventh
nning on a home run by Septa, and the Cardinals
lead in the game seven to three. Al Calne homer
for two of the Tiger runs in the third and
Dick McCullough's fifth enning homer gave me frighten their other
run fifty three thousand, six hundred and thirty four the

(02:24:56):
ballpark here in Detroit. Maxville is wearing color.

Speaker 2 (02:25:00):
He's all for three, he's all for.

Speaker 1 (02:25:04):
Eight in the ballgames. And the pitcher's on the way
from Hillard to Maxville are right, and that batter takes
a high ball one on the eighth Iuning is underway
peally gets to be pretty tough when the at bats
start them out. You still don't have the first base
knock in a series like this, Yes, I've been there before.
Jack as a fly ball to center by Maxville will
be caught by the center builder Northrop. He has it

(02:25:25):
one God and Maxville is up for bot. I say
of your forward team mate, Gill Hidews, remember the one
where he had that's that long string. A great hitter,
great guy. The whole world was pulling form and he
couldn't get a base hit for Loubber money. Yes, I
remember that, and uh, I think Gill what something like
oh for seventeen and I never saw Falla be cheered

(02:25:48):
anymore than he was.

Speaker 2 (02:25:49):
And Ebbatt Steele back to the latter part of it,
who was getting a standing ovation.

Speaker 1 (02:25:55):
He was a big favorite in Ebit Steel Joe Hunter.
The batter throws left MAT's right and Courts went into
litle field corner, parting over after the ball, and he'll
hold him to a single corner. Singles still left with
one man out here in the evening. By the way,
talking about Gil Hides, we hope that New York Skipper
is convalistening in Rocket fashion.

Speaker 2 (02:26:15):
I understand he's doing much better, and he should be
in the hospital for maybe a couple mour of weeks.

Speaker 1 (02:26:21):
They will go back to New.

Speaker 2 (02:26:22):
York and they say, if he takes it easy, and
I'm sure that he will maybe back in their Money's
it next year for the imagine, I understand that Rube
Walker is pitching coach.

Speaker 1 (02:26:31):
There's one thing for sure. Next year, Gil, you will
not throw any betting practice. Joe Horner, who was hitting
us during the year oh for six, just got a
base knock and Lou Brock is up against the left
hander Hillar Rock has walked, singled, singled, struck out two
for three and stolen three bases. Runner at first with

(02:26:52):
one out, all one high. Maybe Hiller wanted a Horner
to get on in case Brock got on. Bront gonna
have Horner in front of and couldn't do any running.
We're in the top of the eighth and the pitch
fastball swinging the miss by Brock in the count evens
up at one and one. Yet another picture starts to

(02:27:16):
warm up Fred. Last year, a right hander is in
the Tiger bullpench ten Nuts for the Cardinals. Now in
the game and four for the Tigers. Rock swings base
hitting the right fails, it'll be fielded by Kline and
Horner stops at second base. Oh Horner falls down to

(02:27:36):
avoid the throw in from Kayline back into the infield.
So low Brock is three for four today, but he
won't be able to run because Horner is in front
of him. They have him trapped out. Jack.

Speaker 2 (02:27:50):
He's gone down a second so many times a day.

Speaker 1 (02:27:52):
He doesn't look out. He's level went over top of Horner.
Hoynter dust himself off after hitting the dirt dirt second
base Betsy eleven Cardinal hits. Cardinals lead seven to three
in the game of the Batter's Third Blood.

Speaker 2 (02:28:08):
This is the first inning of work for.

Speaker 1 (02:28:09):
John Hiller, who has following Wilson, Dobson, McMahon, and Patterson
to the mound. Tigers aren't likely to need any relief
Brothers tomorrow with Dnny McLean pitching. However, Plot the hitter
two for three. Curve ball drops in called strike outside corner.
Blood has walked, filed out, double, driven in a run single,

(02:28:32):
and started a three run seventh inning rally two on
only one out. Run waits and here it comes Curve
My ball foul down into the left field corner, down
into the Tiger bullpen. His blood broke the bat and
that strike two. We're situated heeee and I a little

(02:28:58):
bit off the third baseline with reguard to home plate.
The whore is quite a breaking ball. It's obvious. Yes
he does have. And you mentioned at the start of
the game.

Speaker 2 (02:29:09):
Mayo Smith and his Detroit organization has done a terrific
job in building up their bullpens. Most of their bullpen
is considerably young and Killer and Wharton and Patterson, but
they've done a great job for the Tigers all year.

Speaker 1 (02:29:24):
One is in the hole on two, two on one out,
the pitch coming curve in the dark. Knights play by
friend and blocked the ball, kept it out in the front.
The sun has disappeared, and I doubt they we'll see
it again this afternoon. Just as I said that here
it comes. They'll make a great weather man one night.

(02:29:45):
The lights around here at the ballpark. Killer pitches and
blood curveball ply the ball left center Northrop the center
fielder will catch it for the out. He has it
too gone. The runners return blood my decenter veil. The
hitter Roger Maris with one out of two plus two

(02:30:09):
walks and a key double on a pop fly in
the seven to Jack, what's your weather prediction for tomorrow?
I'm gonna say a word, but they say Mike Rain here.
This is Hiller's first ending of work. He's trying to
avoid being scored on. Has to get my left handed
matter Roger Merris. Ris didn't play much against left handed

(02:30:32):
pitching this year. The pitch to him curve and a
foul and a half swing strike one.

Speaker 2 (02:30:37):
That's the way he got to double the last year.

Speaker 1 (02:30:42):
Looks like the fans remember too. He Troy jumped out
in front of this ball game and a home run
by Kaylin and the third inning with a man on,
and the Cardinals got four in the fifth and haven't
been headed since. It's seven to three now only a
with two on, two out and Maris ducks away from

(02:31:04):
a high, tight fastball. Jon Hiller on the mound checks
the runners and pitches and it's high and tight again.
Paul two Killer from Duluth, Minnesota six. It looks a

(02:31:35):
bit like Mickey Lolitch on the mound. Lo Lulich is
a little bit heavier. The next delivery to Maris fastball
filed back.

Speaker 2 (02:31:45):
Marus was waiting for the fast ball, got it, but
fouled it, and the deuces are wild again. Two on,
two hop two and two on the hitter.

Speaker 1 (02:31:56):
In the Tiger a thing. The big hitters will be
up there. Barton in Northbrook against Joe Wonner. Two balls
strikes the count. The left hander gets ready, empires and
a curve is grounded the first basement cash. He gives
it to the picture covering he's out the end of

(02:32:18):
his own cash to Hiller. The Cardinals leave two when
they's granted eight.

Speaker 2 (02:32:23):
We're going into the Tiger eighth.

Speaker 1 (02:32:25):
The score the Cardinals seven and Detroit three.

Speaker 2 (02:32:28):
The bottom half the eighth inning, Joe Hunter coming out
to take his position on the mountain.

Speaker 1 (02:32:34):
The score is seven and the three.

Speaker 2 (02:32:38):
Arm Cash will be the first hitter for the Tigers,
a left hander facing a left hander. Then it will
be Willie Harton and Jim Nathan and I know that
Billy Muppett, Brad Chandy's will be watching honor. As Jack
Buck told you, very Sumom goes over a couple of things,

(02:33:03):
but he looks pretty strong to me, and especially I
know Muffett and Chandy's been wanting to stand at a
pitch to cash and knocking.

Speaker 1 (02:33:10):
Both left handed hitters seven to three. Bottom half the
eighth inning, the Cardinals lead the Tigers. Tell you all
about it, Jack Box, and the Tigers have only four
hits in the game, and that's not like them. And
as mister Reeves pointed out earlier, the Tigers have been
a late inning ball club many times this year. They
pulled the game out of the fire in the eighth
and nineteennings. We have a cozy little broadcast booth there

(02:33:33):
at Tigers Stadium, includes Jim Simpson, whom you've seen and
heard many times in NBC, and are producing Lynn Dunn,
and we hope you've enjoyed our story of the ball game.
Many people said when this game started that the winner
of this contest would win all. But if fans like this,
Danny McLay will have something to say about that against

(02:33:55):
Gibson Wave. Somebody's writing for the stands with a cardinal banner,
and that's dangerous, booty. It's like waving a red flag
here in this town.

Speaker 2 (02:34:07):
To this. Pae fan here have turned out this year
with well over two million. They haven't had a pen
went a long time throw that hot.

Speaker 1 (02:34:16):
Norm Cash takes the ball outside. Joe Horner is on
the mind, retired two men in the sixth inning and
relief with green Washburn got out of the seven going
allowed a single and a walk. Cash is looking for
his first end of the day.

Speaker 2 (02:34:30):
Swings and this is at a high basketball and.

Speaker 1 (02:34:32):
It's one and one. The troubles here in the bottom
of the eighth seven eleven pole of Saint Louis three
four oh Detroit. Cash on one one pops one fowl
over our head and out of play, and it's one.
In ju there'll be Cash Horton in Northbrook. All indications

(02:34:58):
are that the pitching pairings will in rotation Gibson him
and play tomorrow and trials and mullets on Monday. The
additional games here in Detroit. One ball two strikes a
Norm Cash and the pitch down he goes ahead of
high basketball from by a Horner makes it two and two.

Speaker 2 (02:35:21):
Corner doesn't usually get many strikeouts in the ball game.

Speaker 1 (02:35:28):
Heaps the ball down and depends.

Speaker 2 (02:35:29):
On his fielders to do the job for him.

Speaker 1 (02:35:33):
Two and two to the leadoff hitter and the tiger
eighth strike three call the basketball. Cash doesn't argue about it.
He knew who was in there, and Horner he gets
his first strike one gun. The leadoff hitter is so
important when you're down poor run that the Tigers are now. Yes,

(02:35:54):
it is the norm. Cash has never had the reputation
of getting against left.

Speaker 2 (02:35:58):
But since he changed his newest stands to that open stance,
it is he has putting a lap to steps against him,
but not that time.

Speaker 1 (02:36:06):
Now Horner will take his chances against Willie Horton with
the vace is empty. The pitts to Horton swung out
and miss and strike one. You can have to pay
your way to the ballmark to have the privilege of
getting up and taking a swing like Horton just as play.
He's really strong. Wow ethany vace is empty as Horner

(02:36:31):
deliverance to Harton a ball in the strike Kim Northrup
in the on deck circle the seven to three. The
Cardinals are out in front No one one delivery is
on the way Martin Slayton's and missus. Horner got by

(02:36:53):
him and he's out in front of the count one wall.
His strikes. We talked about the fact that the hounter
doesn't usually work many innings in the game. But he
appears to be strong right now. Who's went out here
in the bottom of the eighth inning, Parton takes a
little time before getting set in the battery's box. The

(02:37:24):
next pitch is coming swung.

Speaker 2 (02:37:26):
On and Mesty got him with a good moving fast ball.

Speaker 1 (02:37:29):
They tailed away from the left handed hitter in there too.
Out Jack.

Speaker 2 (02:37:35):
I think he's a moving all doubts about whether he
can fix three eight ofa. He is really bringing that
ball out there pretty fast right now, and he has.

Speaker 1 (02:37:42):
A left handed batter up there at Jim Norbrook. He's
all for three and one for eleven in the series.
Tiger center fielder or whom they play straight away in
the Cardinal outfield. The hitch coming curveball ground malls, so
paint him big Hop makes the play himself, and the
eighth inning is over as they go down, and at
the end of eight.

Speaker 2 (02:38:01):
Innings it's the Cardinals seven and go trad three.

Speaker 1 (02:38:04):
Were going to the ninth inning here at Tigers Stadium, Detroit,
with Saint Louis out in front of the Tigers by
the score of seven to three. John Hill on the
mound his second ending of work and Subpeta leading off
kurkball and the dirt ball one and the ninth inning
is underway. Subpetta was off for three and then hit

(02:38:26):
a three run homer. In the seventh inning, he swings
and lifts a towering flyball to left center. Norfolk is
going to catch it back near the track and has
it between the three sixty five and four hundred foot markers.
Sapetta flies to center field the banner Macarver's. Macarver hit

(02:38:49):
a three run homer in the fifth inning. The Cardinals
were trailing at the time two to one. Ray Washburn
stands to be the winner in this game and Earl
Wilson stands to be the loser. The story on Wilson
was that he pulled a hamstring muscle in his leg
about five pitches before he was removed from the ball game.
In the fifth Ninny Macarver takes a strike. If that

(02:39:14):
muscle pull is bad to me, he might not see
additional action. He may not.

Speaker 2 (02:39:20):
I saw him boothing with his plays while he's sound him. Now,
when Male's fifth came out of the.

Speaker 1 (02:39:24):
Talk joint, it'll be a big bullet to the Tigers.
Surely would A ball and a strike to count to
macarver had to plight with one out. When the top
of the ninth and the Cardinals leave the Tigers seven
to three, McCarver takes it high ball two, two and one.
A three hour ball games along about now. Macarver swings

(02:39:52):
and a half swing and a tap to third, worked
up with the ball and throws him out easily to
god oh. Darrell Patterson worked one inning without being scored on.
This is the second inning of worked for hillar and
the Cardinals haven't crossed the plate against him. Three runs
against Wilson, one against Dobson, and three against McMahon. The

(02:40:13):
batter is Shannon one out of three plus a walk,
right handed batter, left handed pitcher swinging a miss strike
one Hiller out in front of the batter and the

(02:40:36):
pitch change up goes high. See we we haven't seen
much infield play in the three games of the series.
That's far have we not many ground balls and double
plays in action around third base at all? The pitch
followed by Shannon that makes it one and two. No,
we haven't. Jack saw a fine played with Mickey Sandley

(02:40:58):
in the second game over the Cardinals and Dal Maxville
had a couple of fun plays. Nasaid that as far
as seeing quick double plays, we haven't seen though curveball
and a base hit the center by Shannon. At the
second end of the day, Killer got a curveball all
over the plate. And Shannon is now two for four
in the ball game in.

Speaker 2 (02:41:19):
Four out of twelve in the series.

Speaker 1 (02:41:20):
He's on with two outs and Avier is the better.
He's er for three walk back in the second ending.
The Cardinals have stranded eight runners in the game but
still lead seven to three. It's right and eight turns
it back. We stranded sickness cash holding against Shannon and

(02:41:43):
Avier swings base hitting the right field. Shannon will stop
at second base as Caline fields the ball two on
two out. We talked about Avier earlier hitting against those
left handers. He hit five hundred. I believe Phillie if
that's all he saw.

Speaker 2 (02:41:59):
Jack I just started to say that, so I said,
little Hobby Air, you've told me how well he hits
left tenders.

Speaker 1 (02:42:05):
Let's see what he looks like now. But before get
it out he had line one in the right field.
I've noticed a little bit. Seems like his left handers
kind of keeps it head down in it a little
bit better he did his that game. Shannon's single with
two hot abvi Air followed with a single and Maxville
looking for his first series hit over four in this
game and Opra nine overall right handed batter at the plate.

(02:42:27):
The pitch from Hillard good past ball and called strike one.
The score single was seven Detroit three nine two on
two up Hiller, the fifth Tiger pitcher. It's a sign
from pree hand and delivers foul back out of play

(02:42:48):
into the six and that makes it straight too. Paul
goes into the upper deck amongst the crowd of fifty
three thousand, six hundred and thirty four, mostly Tiger fans
and mostly quiet. At the moment, the Tigers have the
ninth inning threeham due to lead law. Maxville swings files

(02:43:15):
another one off to the right into the seats.

Speaker 2 (02:43:21):
So Maxville batted two fifty two.

Speaker 1 (02:43:24):
It's come to be an acceptable figure for an infielder
in this day and age. That's what it is.

Speaker 2 (02:43:29):
And I had just noticed that Maxville and fourteen series
game has not made a miscue.

Speaker 1 (02:43:33):
He can handle that glove with it, he can get
around two fifty. He has to be very valuable to
a ball club. Curve ball and a half swing and
a pole rolling back, and it remains strike two on Maxville.
The tunnels at this point here in the top of
the ninth inning, seven thirteen and oh for the Cardinals,
three runs, only four hits in no wars for Detroit.

Speaker 2 (02:43:54):
Talking about sharp stops, they can pick that ball. They
have a fellow who was Tiger. He's not playing now,
Ray Holler.

Speaker 1 (02:43:59):
He can hit two fifty. I guarantee he could play
anywhere we've seen him. In the late inning Thursday, the
pitch to Maxville way high of all what canon of
second and Navier at first will appear that the Cardinals
are about to go up two games to one with
Gibson against McLean tomorrow, but the Tigers.

Speaker 2 (02:44:25):
Still have that name.

Speaker 1 (02:44:26):
Pinning high again to Mackville with a basketball that makes
it two and two. First based umpire Bill Kinneman will
be working behind the plate tomorrow. The umpires go from
home plate to right field, to left field into third
base and work their way around to the plate. The

(02:44:49):
pitch coming in Maxville takes.

Speaker 2 (02:44:50):
It high, and that makes a friend do.

Speaker 1 (02:44:59):
Well Hillar, It's the eighth thing I had two hits.
They were stranded two hits in this ninth and he
with two out. Bretton Laxer right handers warming up in
the tigger bull thing. The runners will go on the
free two delivery. There they go, and it's high ball.
Four of the bases are loaded. Hiller gives his first walk.
It's the seventh pass given to the Cardinals today, loads

(02:45:22):
the vases and brings up Joel Horner, the owner, got
a base hit in the eighth inning, his first hit
of the year. He throws left Ba's right combination you
don't see too often. Shannon the third ove here at second,

(02:45:44):
Max Field at first. With two men gone, John Hiller,
the lefty, He's gonna work off the stretch despite the bank.
The bases are loaded, curveball, followed by wonders. Strike one.
Tiger Van's quiet, waiting to see what the score.

Speaker 2 (02:46:08):
Will be.

Speaker 1 (02:46:09):
When their club comes to bat. In the bottom of
the ninth inning, Basi loaded two out. The pitch high
had that evens it up one and one against Horner.
I'll field playing Horner just a bit to the left

(02:46:34):
kayline in a step in right field, the petch Grimon Hiller,
oh and the swing and the messes corner Chase went
over his head. He's in the hall now one.

Speaker 2 (02:46:42):
And too.

Speaker 1 (02:46:44):
Bred last year submarine type picture in the bullpen let
field corner for Detroit.

Speaker 2 (02:46:58):
Tiler with the bases loaded and out, trying.

Speaker 1 (02:47:00):
To get out of the jam, and he has corners
set up. Comes to the plate and it's high. Horner
laid off two and two honer case one, so Eler
thought he might as well give him another. But the
count goes to to and two. Fighter Jack. The defense
captain alis over the bench and where they stay s down,

(02:47:22):
think they trail are still working off the string for
the runners at first, second, and third, Hi ball. Pray
for him two.

Speaker 2 (02:47:30):
Now he's got a cross striker forcing or run.

Speaker 1 (02:47:33):
We saw some of this Thursday. One Horner walked a
couple of men with the bases loaded and three woods.
And if he wants him or loses him in any
other fashion, then we'll bring up blue Rock. The runners
will all go with the pets.

Speaker 2 (02:47:50):
They all merry ground.

Speaker 1 (02:47:54):
To the belt. They're going the runners and he's struck
him out. Corner does down slugging the tracks. Lead pray
they've one of the eleven. The tiger's bad in the
ninth ning with the score Saint Louis seven and Detroit prison.
Jimmy reads along with Jack Buck the bottom half the
ninth inning, the last chance are the Tigers. They trailing
this ball game by a score of seven to three.

(02:48:16):
Joe Hunter on the mount of the Cardinals, and here's
what he'll have to face in the bottom half the
ninth inning, Bill Freehand leading off, Don work the next hitter,
and I imagine a pinch hitter I'm sure will be
the other editor. Come on back in your jack.

Speaker 2 (02:48:35):
John Hiller fits two scoreless sunnings.

Speaker 1 (02:48:37):
In relief, no runs, four hit, struck out one, walk
one and Bill Frehan I was walked in twice, flight
to left field, and that's the play. Is all for
eight in the series. And he'll try to startch something
full of Tigers who trail seven to three, corner on them.

(02:48:58):
Mount Honor relieved in the sixth which the seven to
eight pitches in the ninth Steve carl And the left
hander to Ques the right nder and the Cardinal bullpen.
In case Horner gets in trouble, he pitches to Bill
Preehan and it swung on and pomp follow back and
it goes hear.

Speaker 2 (02:49:14):
The screen and on the screen is McCarver chase back.

Speaker 1 (02:49:19):
Hewe turning point in this game came about in the
sixth thing when free hand was hitting against corner two
on two out hit the flap ball that sent rock
back to the track and that one jumped out. Things
would be a little different right now. Would have put
the Tigers out and run would I mean?

Speaker 2 (02:49:35):
Of course, it kind of wonder what would happen if
Earl Wilson would have been able to stay in this.

Speaker 1 (02:49:41):
Ballgain Honor delivers and pree Hands takes the ball outside.

Speaker 2 (02:49:47):
That's one and morning Corner left hander Prehenn, a.

Speaker 1 (02:49:51):
Right handed, battered down, worked on decked Tigers have becausisky
on the bench as you think of up the pin
kitter right hand the free siator.

Speaker 2 (02:50:04):
Along with the ray oiler.

Speaker 1 (02:50:07):
Jim Price low inside at three d that makes it
two balls in a strike. The man's still whooping it
up here. Tigers need four to get back into the game.
At seven three, Saint Louis owner delivers threeand swing pops
it in the short center out of the air, going out.

(02:50:28):
Blood in Blood calls for the ball, glasses down makes
the cat one out three end is open for three
and oh four names one gun Don Worth the batter.
He's open three. Also starting out like a tiger day,
when al Caline had a two run homer from themdous

(02:50:50):
blast into the upper deck and left field in the
third inning, ball won the load to work. Later mccaullough
hombers and the Cardinals got home runs, first from McCarver,
who brings Saint Louis from behind, and later from Sepeta.
One out here in the bottom of the ninth unning,
the pitch is on the way from Horner and it's
a strike called one and one. Jim Price is on deck.

(02:51:16):
Tiger catcher, who'll be the pinch hitter for hillar Wort
swings Brown's won a short Maxville up of the ball,
almost lost it throws he got him. Maxville had the
ball on his fingertips and almost drafted.

Speaker 2 (02:51:30):
Billy as he did. Jack cut ball kind of stayed
down when the last hop came and dal almost came
off the ball.

Speaker 1 (02:51:40):
We covered down behind the plate to give the sign
to out. The bottom of the ninth ounning seven to three,
Saint Louis leading the pitch coming. Price swings in a
high five ball the left shoot in the game, lou Brock,
the left hitler is under the ball and he has it.
The con guess his others. The Tigers got.

Speaker 2 (02:51:56):
Down and Horner in the ninth hinning

Speaker 1 (02:52:01):
The final scar the Cardinals seven, and they tried three
