  The Atlanta Braves visited the Philadelphia Phillies at Veterans Stadium for a Sunday
• 0:10
  afternoon game on June 19, 1977. The Braves were a fairly awful team, having lost more
• 0:16
  than 90 games in each of the past two seasons. They were managed by Dave Bristol, who returned
• 0:21
  for 1977, but was off to an awful start. They entered this game with a 23-42 record at the
• 0:27
  bottom of the NL West. The Phillies were quite the opposite. They won 101 games and were
• 0:31
  managed by Danny Ozarek in 1976, but lost the NLCS to the Big Red Machine. This audio
• 0:37
  recording is from the Philadelphia Radio broadcast, featuring announcers Harry Callas and Richie
• 0:41
  Ashburn. The Iron Temple chatters with a very crisp rendition of our national anthem and a
• 0:47
  perfect day for baseball here. It's going to be warm. In fact, the temperature is forecast to go
• 0:52
  into the 90s, but the humidity is going to go down throughout the day. And of course, it's roll-up
• 0:57
  today here at Veterans Stadium. And you see many, many of these red roll-up hats worn by youngsters
• 1:03
  and adults alike, as the youngsters have been kind enough to pass them on to Dad and, in some cases,
• 1:08
  Mom here on Father's Day. See, where a lot of kids didn't. Well, that's true, too. We've got some
• 1:16
  American League action already underway. First end of a double header in Cleveland,
• 1:20
  Tigers and the Indians are scoreless at the end of two. John Hiller is pitching for Detroit,
• 1:24
  and Wayne Garland is going for Cleveland. Of course, the Indians, as we mentioned,
• 1:28
  under new management today, Jeff Corbett, taking over as the manager. In Chicago,
• 1:33
  first end of a double header, the pitchers are up. Doc Medich will work for the Oakland A's.
• 1:38
  He is 5-2 and Wood will go for the White Sox. He is 0-1 this year. Baltimore,
• 1:45
  Toronto, Flatingen for the Orioles, and Lemancek will go for Toronto. Other American League
• 1:50
  action will start later on. Steve Carleton, who has lost only one game at Veterans Stadium all
• 1:56
  year long, and that was his initial outing to the Montreal Expos on opening day as he gave
• 2:01
  up three home runs to Valentine Perez and Carter, and the Phillies lost that game 4-3.
• 2:05
  Carleton got a no decision in his last start at Cincinnati last Monday night,
• 2:10
  gave up a home run to Foster. Carleton has won three of his last four decisions.
• 2:16
  There's Barry Benel, the leaded off for the Atlanta Braves, right-handed batter. The first pitch
• 2:22
  to him is a curve ball over first strike. Benel batting at 3-33. Fern Benson,
• 2:29
  coaching third, Eddie Haas at first for Atlanta. Here's another curve ball,
• 2:32
  and a fly ball center field. Easy play for Gary Maddox. Hardly has to move. There's the first
• 2:37
  out of the ball game. You're talking a little bit about McBride, Andy, and it is different to play
• 2:45
  right field. People think that, oh, well, he's an out-fielder, but the ball does come off the
• 2:49
  bat differently. It'll thrice from certain hitters and tail from others, and little things will have
• 2:53
  to pick up, but he's such a good athlete and runs so well that I think he'll be able to play it all right.
• 2:57
  Here's Jerry Royster batting in the second spot, batting at 2-15, a right-handed hitter.
• 3:02
  Pitch on the way to him is a hard ground ball back towards second base. Seismore Fields makes
• 3:08
  the throw across in time. Royster is out. Three pitches, two outs, and Willie Montaner has always
• 3:16
  slow to come to the plate will be the batter. We'd like to send our greetings this afternoon to
• 3:20
  Betty King, mother of Hank King, who is the Phillies batting practice pitcher. She was injured recently
• 3:26
  in an accident and is in Montgomery Hospital and we certainly wish her well. Montaner is batting at 3-13.
• 3:34
  Willie had two hits in last night's game. He also grounded into another double play. He led all
• 3:40
  national leagueers and grounding into double plays a year ago hit into 26 of them. Willie left-handed
• 3:47
  batter. Carlton Wines, the pitch on the way to him, is a strike call even though Willie jumped back
• 3:52
  from it and the pitch was off the outside corner. That's Willie. Carlton ready again. Here's the
• 4:00
  pitch. Comes a little sidearm and the pitch misses. One ball and one strike. Carlton seeking his
• 4:05
  100th victory as a Phillie today. Next pitch on the way to Montanez, he fouls it back to the screen.
• 4:13
  Steve is 99 and 66 in a Phillies uniform. Lifetime it would be his 177th victory if he can win today.
• 4:25
  Carlton coming into the ball game with a 309 earned run average in 77. The one-two pitch, slow
• 4:31
  breaking curve and it's just a little high two and two. Montanez had one hit and four tries against
• 4:39
  Carlton last year. Here's the next pitch on the way. Mrs. High. Three balls, two strikes to Montanez.
• 4:45
  Carlton beat the Braves twice last year. They did not beat him. Here's the full-count pitch.
• 4:51
  Curveball laced the center. Theomatics coming over and he grabs it for the out. Braves are out
• 4:56
  in order in the first at the end of a happening. That's about a nothing. Phillies coming up.
• 5:00
  What's the clump? Juicy and where's the Phillies uniform? Phillies Franks. When you come back from
• 5:10
  the food store give me some Phillies Franks. Phillies Franks. They're so plump, so juicy, so
• 5:16
  delicious you can almost hear the roar of the crowd when you eat them. For it's one, two, three,
• 5:21
  strikes and expressing to being there. Phillies Franks are by Medford. If you don't see them,
• 5:29
  ask for them. Move up to a Buick. Buick dedicated to the free spirit in just about everyone. Buick

• 6:36
  you can expect some tremendous baseball starting here tomorrow night at the Vette. The two teams
• 6:40
  that met in the playoffs last year will be back at each other again. Johnny Bench, Pete Rose,
• 6:45
  Joe Morgan and the rest of the great Cincinnati club will be here for night games tomorrow,
• 6:49
  Tuesday and Wednesday. The Varnights game will begin at 8.35. The Tuesday and Wednesday games
• 6:55
  begin at 7.35. Funding tickets remain for all three. Hope you make it to the Vette for the Phillies
• 7:00
  and the Reds and the weather is supposed to be ideal tomorrow night. Well the Oakland A's have,
• 7:05
  there's been a correction sent over on the starting pitcher for Oakland and Mike Norris is the
• 7:11
  starter in that first game rather than MediH. Apparently MediH will go in the second game.
• 7:15
  He'll be pitching against Wilbur Wood. There in the Phillies first inning, it'll be Gary Maddox
• 7:23
  leading off, Bake McBride batting second and Mike Schmidt batting third. Just when the trade was
• 7:27
  made, everybody was talking about Bake being a leadoff better and here he is in the number two
• 7:31
  hole. Why do you think that's, why do you think that he is batting number two? I don't know. Danny
• 7:38
  Ozark is funny. He, he goes with a set lineup especially when he's winning and I honestly think
• 7:43
  Johnstone would have played today except that Jay hurt his wrist a little bit last night. He doesn't
• 7:48
  usually shake up the way guys hit so he had Johnstone batting second so he moved McBride into
• 7:52
  the spot where Johnstone was and I honestly believe that's why he's batting second.
• 8:04
  So Gary Maddox deleted off of the Phillies batting of 282.
• 8:07
  Here's Steve Hargan making his first appearance for the Atlanta Braves. They got him at midnight on
• 8:16
  the 15th of June at the trading deadline from the Texas Rangers. Right-hander's first pitch is a
• 8:21
  fly ball fouled on the right field side strike one. Hargan with Texas had won two times, had lost
• 8:28
  three times and his earned run average was 6.21. In warming up here, it looked as though Hargan
• 8:35
  was throwing a knuckleball. Pitch on the way to Maddox and that's in for a strike. Well we saw
• 8:44
  enough of those things last night so it looked like he threw one right there too. That's kind of
• 8:48
  unexpected because we've heard he was kind of a fastball slider type guy. Here's the O2 pitch
• 8:52
  on the way to Maddox and Gary bends away and the ball hits off the end of his bat and that may
• 8:57
  have been the knuckleball too. Well just off the barrel end of the handle end of the bat, Cap remains
• 9:05
  0-2 on Maddox. Hargan winds here's the next pitch. Pop-up, playable by Willie Montanez,
• 9:12
  staring up into bright sunshine, crosses into foul territory and gloves it in foul ground for the
• 9:17
  out. Maddox retired for the first out of the ball game and here is Bigfoot Bride. Got a great
• 9:23
  hand when he was sent up as a pinch hitter last night. McBride grounded out in his first Philly's
• 9:31
  appearance. Bake a left handed batter hitting at 260. Philly's have become a hot home club. They have
• 9:42
  won 18 of their last 22 games here at the vet and Philly is hoping that this carries over not only
• 9:48
  through today but through that Cincinnati series. Fastball low inside ball one. McBride from the
• 9:56
  Cardinals brings with him four home runs and 20 runs batted in. Gary Mumfrey playing very well for
• 10:02
  the Cardinals more or less beat him out of a job. Here's a pitch over the inside corner of strike.
• 10:06
  One ball and one strike on Bakefoot Bride making his first start as a Philly. Hargan's next delivery,
• 10:17
  the knuckleball is low. McBride is 28 years of age. He is in his fourth year of big league baseball.
• 10:24
  What a rookie year he had batted 309 and stole 30 bases that year. 2-1 pitch on the way. Blind drive
• 10:36
  into left field but playing it just about right as Matthews and he gloves it for the out. McBride
• 10:40
  out second out of the first inning for the Philly's. No score in the ball game as Mike Schmidt
• 10:45
  heads for the plate. Schmidt batting at 256. Mike lost an 11 game batting streak last night.
• 10:58
  Had trouble with that knuckleball at Phil Necros. Nothing unusual about that. The Phillies have almost
• 11:06
  always had trouble with Necro. He was not involved in the decision as the Phillies finally beat
• 11:11
  Frank LaCorte. Finney fouls back the first pitch strike one. Mike with 15 homeruns 34 RBI's.
• 11:22
  Hargan lines here's the one strike pitch low and outside. You'll find in a case like that when
• 11:33
  these hitters haven't faced the pitcher and either it's usually the pitcher will have the upper hand
• 11:37
  especially early in the game because hitters really don't like to face somebody they don't know
• 11:41
  anything about. That's on the way to Schmidt misses inside two balls in a strike. Hargan is 34
• 11:46
  years of age and this is his 12th year in the major leagues. He was first up with the Indians
• 11:51
  back in 1965. His best year was 1967 when he won 14 and lost 13. Schmidt hits the ball to center field
• 11:59
  retreating on the finale is back. He can't get into the fouls off the third field wall. Mike's
• 12:12
  hitter was a fast ball about letter high and really ripped and almost hit it out of here. Looked like
• 12:33
  Schmidt with his second triple of a year. That bounded right above the 408 foot sign and straight away center field but now possibly had a chance to catch it.
• 12:43
  He didn't. And then the ball came up the ball wildly and made it the third base. Here is Greg Luzinski.
• 12:50
  The ball has batted safely in 12 of 13. No score in this game but a two out chance for the Phillies. Schmidt at third with two down.
• 13:03
  Hargan will use the wind up pitch on the way to Luzinski is inside and gets away from Correll. Here comes Schmidt. He will score.
• 13:10
  The ball really broke. You can see it come in on Luzinski and get away from Correll and they might make that a wild pitch. It's hard to say.
• 13:25
  Phillies take the lead one to nothing. Count Luzinski one ball and no strikes.
• 13:38
  The ball leads the Phillies and RB eyes with 45. Hargan winds. Here's the pitch and it's over the outside corner of strike.
• 13:49
  Correll of course is used to handling the knuckleball. He caught Phil Negro last Thursday in Atlanta when Negro beat the Phillies.
• 13:56
  Next pitch to Luzinski backs him away and this one too skips out of the glove of Correll.
• 14:05
  Two balls and a strike. The Greg Luzinski. Ball hitting 3-38.
• 14:13
  Hargan into the wind up and here's the pitch swinging in the midst by the ball.
• 14:19
  It's officially been ruled a wild pitch on which Mike Schmidt scored the first run of the ball again.
• 14:29
  2-2 on Greg Luzinski. Hargan winds and here's the pitch to him. Ball swings and misses strike 3 and the inning is over but the Phillies take the jump in the ball game.
• 14:38
  One run on one hit. Nobody left on base. At the end of an inning, Phillies lead 1-0 now time for a tasty break.
• 14:45
  It takes a lot of years in the business to prove you're one of the all time greats.
• 14:49
  And it's the same whether you're playing ball or whether you're baking cake. Tasty cake knows. For over 60 years, Tasty Cake has been earning its good name.

• 16:24
  Jeff Burroughs leads it off for the Braves. And here we have a young girl coming onto the field coming out the third base
• 16:32
  and putting her arms around Mike Schmidt and planting a kiss on him and now heading back to the sand.
• 16:40
  Oh my goodness. You know that really tests the players on the spot responses.
• 16:48
  Schmidt didn't know what to do. You know, this is Larry Bollack getting all over.
• 16:52
  I might also mention that she is a very well endowed young lady.
• 16:57
  That would be one of the great understatements you've ever made. You don't like to play those things up, Chris.
• 17:04
  They were up alright. So Schmidt has been tested. First chance of the game right there.
• 17:12
  Alright, here's Burroughs in the first pitch to him as high ball one.
• 17:17
  Burroughs batting at 282, four home runs off Philadelphia pitching.
• 17:22
  Carl is next delivery. A breaking ball. A slider is over the corner of strike.
• 17:28
  One ball in one strike.
• 17:33
  Burroughs swings and misses strike two. Nothing like a night's warm day at the old ballpark to bring out the best in people, right?
• 17:40
  I'm sure Schmidt is blushing down there, but you can't see for the shadow of his cap.
• 17:45
  You can't see as a reddish-conflicted young man as it is. Outside, two balls and two strikes.
• 17:52
  Burroughs will be followed by Matthews and Correll. Next pitch on the way, swinging and a miss.
• 17:57
  Carl then picks up his first strike out of the ball game.
• 18:02
  Burroughs strikes out. First out of the second inning and here is Gary Matthews.
• 18:11
  Well, I think we're supposed to say after something like that that she will be ejected from the park.
• 18:16
  That goes without saying. Here's a pitch into Matthews that misses ball one.
• 18:20
  I have never seen so many security guards converge on one person before.
• 18:25
  Next pitch is over for a strike, one and one. Matthews not hitting very well right now, carrying a 273 average to the plate.
• 18:33
  Carl and a quick worker. Here's his next pitch. Hecks swing followed back to the screen.
• 18:39
  They were fighting each other to get after her down there. They were coming from right field.
• 18:46
  One ball and two strikes on Matthews. Atlanta's left fielder. Carl then swings into his windup.
• 18:53
  Here's the left-hander's pitch. A called strike and Matthews is out of there.
• 18:57
  Carl then picks up back to back strikeouts. Two down second inning with the Phillies on top one to nothing.
• 19:03
  Here's batter Vic Correll. Correll batting 247, sharing the catching job with Beth Poca Roba.
• 19:14
  Correll right-handed batter. Here's the pitch to him. A curve ball is bounced third base but it's foul.
• 19:26
  Strike one on Correll. Carl in into the windup. The next pitch misses inside a ball.
• 19:32
  One ball and one strike. Correll faced Carl in six times last year, had one hit.
• 19:42
  Lefty Wines in the next pitch is a fastball, hopped back toward the mound.
• 19:45
  Carl then gloves on the third base side and throws him out. A one, two, three inning for Steve as the braids go down in the second.
• 19:51
  At the end of one and a half, those lead one nothing.
• 19:54
  You are it, we've got it at your tracer finish. Maybe you can't fit a whole baseball team in a four-door Valarri wagon,
• 20:03
  but you can fit more inside than in any domestic wagon inside. That's one big reason it's the number one selling wagon build in America.
• 20:10
  Another is a four-door convenience. And now it's the season to get a real hold on the senior local Billy Land,
• 20:16
  24-centimeter Valarri wagon now. We got it, we got it for you. We got it.
• 20:24

• 20:32
  Moreover, the choice of meat is tremendous, from fresh ground beef, steak, roasts and chops to price.
• 20:38
  If you're a Phillies fan who hasn't had Lancaster brand at home, stop rooting for it.
• 20:43
  It's more to life than just the price. Lancaster brand meat, sold only at Acne Super Savers.

• 21:27
  Richie Hebner will lead it off for the Phillies. Hebner, McCarver and Bowett about in the second inning against right hander Steve Hargan.
• 21:34
  Ellie's lead at 1-0 on a triple by Schmidt in a wild pitch. First pitch to Hebner is low ball 1.
• 21:42
  Well, the Cincinnati Reds do in town tomorrow night, and that's going to be something.
• 21:47
  The whole country will be able to watch that ball game tomorrow night.
• 21:50
  Even Howard Cosell will be here as one of the commentators. It will of course be blacked out in Philadelphia,
• 21:55
  but we'll be looking for you here at Veteran Stadium for the 835 start tomorrow night.
• 22:00
  Pitch on the way to Hebner is low inside. Jim Coptigo for the Phillies and Fred Norman, who is pitching well now, will work for Cincinnati.
• 22:11
  Reds have beaten the Phillies 9 straight if you go back through the playoffs in the regular season last year, swinging in a foul ball by Hebner.
• 22:18
  2-1 the count.
• 22:22
  On Tuesday night, the Reds are going to start a rookie, a rookie right hander named Paul Musko.
• 22:27
  He'll pitch against Randy Lurch, Larry Christensen and Jack Bellingham Wednesday,
• 22:32
  swinging another foul by Hebner. The count is level of 2-2.
• 22:42
  Reds coming in as a hot club. Don't know how they'll not get a Montreal today, but they have 1-7 straight going into that game against the Expo's.
• 22:49
  Woody Freiman, Expo pitching against Wayne Putschel, ex-Phillie.
• 22:54
  Here's a fly ball shallow left center field, shortstop Robinson going not shading his eyes, being called off, and the ball is dropped by Matthews and a second base is Hebner.
• 23:04
  Matthews came in and the ball hit off his glove and dropped safely, and Hebner is at second base.
• 23:10
  It's going to be a difficult scoring decision. That ball was definitely the shortstop ball.
• 23:15
  And it's such a high sky today and all the wind and everything, Robinson never got to it.
• 23:20
  They're going to give Matthews an error. That's pause for station identification. This is the Phillies baseball network.
• 23:27
  This name to Phillies baseball, Longley High Valley's Major League Sports Station, WEST Radio 14 Eastern.
• 23:40
  Tim McAvlar at the plate, so the Braves have made a couple of errors, if you will, today, only one officially.
• 23:45
  You can call the wild pitching there if you want. However, that is an earned run the Phillies got in the first inning.
• 23:51
  Here's Tim McAvlar about him 298.
• 23:55
  Timmy regular catcher every time Steve Carleton works for the Phillies, a combination which has worked out very well.
• 24:01
  We're all concerned. It gives Boone a day off every fourth or fifth day.
• 24:05
  Argan stretches. Hevner leads the second pitch on the way to Timmy as low inside ball one.
• 24:15
  McAvlar with one home run, it was a pinch hit homer and six runs batted in.
• 24:21
  His on base percentage is just outstanding too. Timmy gets so many walks, he's just contributed so much to the team.
• 24:28
  Next pitch on the way over the inside corner of strike and of course he is the good humor man too.
• 24:32
  He is funny. He really, he's like a stand-up comedian almost.
• 24:39
  He would probably correct you and say a squatting comedian.
• 24:43
  He looks more at home in a squat than for sure.
• 24:46
  One ball and one strike to McAvlar. Here's the pitch to him.
• 24:49
  Inside, two and one. Nobody added the inning.
• 24:53
  Hevner at second on the air by Matthews. Look like that was Robinson's ball to catch all the way.
• 24:58
  Matthews called him off and then when he didn't get it, he was charged with the air.
• 25:03
  Hevner running all the way, got the second.
• 25:06
  The two one pitches a little humpback liner, fielded on the short hop by Robinson holds the runner, safe at first.
• 25:12
  He pulled Monteney's off the bag as the throw was a little short into the home plate side and that'll be a base hit for Tim McAvlar.
• 25:20
  That's another aspect of McAvlar's game that people don't realize is how well he runs. That's, uh, Robinson made a pretty decent flight.
• 25:27
  Craig's problem always has been is that he winds up too much when he goes to throw and takes a little extra time.
• 25:32
  He took that time then and McAvlar is great speed for a catcher and he beat it out and he'll get a base hit out of it.
• 25:40
  Here's Larry Bola with runners at first and second. Nobody out.
• 25:44
  Hevner not able to move off the bag at second with Robinson making that play right in front of him.
• 25:50
  Pitch on the way to Bola, squares the bunt, drops it down the third lay, baseline is the beauty.
• 25:54
  Reusster had not come in for the ball, he had headed back and nobody bothered to field the bunt hit.
• 26:01
  Bunt single for Bola, bases loaded.
• 26:04
  Steve Hargan has to wonder right now what he just got into because that was a terrible play by the Braves.
• 26:10
  The team will have that set up where the pitcher is covering, whether or not the third baseman is coming in and they completely botched that play
• 26:17
  and Reusster turned his back as soon as Bola bunted the ball and went and covered third and the ball was bunted right to him.
• 26:24
  A base is loaded situation for the Phillies who bring Ted Seismore to the plate, batting at 271.
• 26:29
  There is nobody out in the inning.
• 26:31
  Hevner is a third base, McAvlar at second base, Bola with the bunt single at first base.
• 26:36
  Braves are playing a double play dip.
• 26:40
  Hargan will work from the stretch.
• 26:43
  Pitch to Seismore, outside ball one and Carell had to go after that knuckleball on both knees.
• 26:53
  Phillies pitcher Steve Carleton in the on-deck circle, he leads it one to nothing with a good chance to get more in the second inning.
• 26:59
  Nobody out.
• 27:00
  Hargan at the bell, here's his pitch, strike call.
• 27:04
  Looked like it was a high pitch from here but it's a called strike by home plate umpire Paul Pryor.
• 27:20
  One ball and one strike on Seismore.
• 27:24
  Here's the pitch, takes it outside and low.
• 27:27
  Two balls and a strike.
• 27:35
  Pryor is playing a double header today.
• 27:40
  They are playing at San Francisco, they have lost five straight.
• 27:44
  Seismore tries to check his swing and let's see if he does.
• 27:47
  Appeal to first base, it's a strike.
• 27:50
  Two balls and two strikes.
• 27:51
  Pryor appealed to Andy Olson who raised the arm.
• 27:54
  And so the count is level on Seismore.
• 28:00
  Base is loaded, nobody out for the Phillies.
• 28:05
  And Hargan really should be in better shape than he is right now, there's been an error this inning.
• 28:09
  And the Bunsingle should have been fielded and turned into something and then of course Robinson almost throughout Timmy McArthur.
• 28:16
  The 2-2 pitch, swing and a foul tip in and out of the glove of Corell.
• 28:23
  Seismore remains alive.
• 28:27
  Well after the Cincinnati series the Phillies will be playing within their own division for the next 25 games.
• 28:33
  And I think all baseball fans agree that the National League East has been baseball's toughest and probably most interesting division this year.
• 28:41
  Here's the pitch from Hargan.
• 28:45
  A ground ball towards shortstop, Robinson to second, there's one back to first to double play.
• 28:50
  Phillies get a run out of it, no RBI for Seismore.
• 28:53
  Hevner crosses the plate with the second run of the ball game and the Phillies lead it 2-0.
• 28:58
  But the Braves will take that, that's exactly the way they were playing it to get to when they did.
• 29:03
  And McArthur winds up on third base.
• 29:12
  Here's Steve Carlin, Steve batting 2-29.
• 29:16
  Eight hits and 35 times up.
• 29:19
  Danny Ozark is out conferring with home plate umpire Paul Pryor.
• 29:26
  Danny now back to the dugout.
• 29:29
  Crowell in left-handed batter gets good wood in the ball.
• 29:35
  Braves infield back with two down.
• 29:38
  Phillies score to run like this in the first inning.
• 29:40
  A runner at third and two out on a wild pitch.
• 29:46
  Here's the first delivery to Crowell and he fouls it off strike one.
• 29:49
  Steve has knocked in three runs this year.
• 29:51
  Phillies have given him a 2-0 lead.
• 29:57
  White Fox lead the A's 1-0 at the end of two in the first end of their double header.
• 30:02
  The Indians playing under Jeff Torborg lead Detroit 2-0 at the end of four.
• 30:06
  Carlin swings and foul tips it at the plate.
• 30:09
  0-2 the count on Carlin.
• 30:13
  Andre Forton and Larvel Blanks have both hit Cleveland home runs in the fourth with nobody on.
• 30:18
  Forton seventh and Blanks third.
• 30:26
  Next pitch to Carlton.
• 30:28
  Line drive, base hit center field.
• 30:30
  Here comes McIver. Phillies lead at 3-0.
• 30:33
  RBI number four for Carlin and the Phillies have another run.
• 30:39
  That's the way a pitcher can really help himself.
• 30:41
  Steve Carlton has swung the bat very very well this year and that's a good run for the Phillies.
• 30:45
  They get a two-out run when they look like they had gotten himself out of that inning with a double play ball.
• 30:50
  The base is loaded, the pitcher coming up and that makes the pitcher feel pretty good.
• 30:54
  Phillies can get the base hit and keeps it alive and gets the Phillies another run.
• 30:58
  Phillies have scored two of their three runs with two down.
• 31:02
  Back up top now here's Gary Maddox who fouled out to Willie Montenez.
• 31:06
  Pitch to the right-handed batter.
• 31:08
  Fly ball center field Barry Bonnell playing it just about right and he takes it for the out.
• 31:14
  Phillies out in the second inning but they have scored two times.
• 31:18
  Two runs on three hits.
• 31:20
  One error and one man left on base. They are all on our own runs.
• 31:25
  At the end of two Phillies lead it three to nothing.
• 31:28
  You want it, we've got it.
• 31:31
  At your right-handed finish fielder.
• 31:34
  If you're looking for a car with major league performance catch Chrysler Newport.
• 31:38
  It's full-size convenience gives you more room than any other car in its class
• 31:42
  and it has steel-bellied radios, power front disc brakes
• 31:45
  and electronic lean burn system standards.
• 31:47
  Ask your Philly land Chrysler Pima dealer about his grand-fland deal on Newport today.
• 31:52
  We got it, now it's time for you. We got it.
• 31:57
  I'm on serratano for you, isn't it?
• 32:00
  You know, last year I followed up with the Phillies.
• 32:05
  All year they gave me so many moments of joy.
• 32:08
  When I love something I want to be back to them.
• 32:11
  I want to be as close as I can.
• 32:13
  So they won't tell me a piece of lead in a parking lot to build my house.
• 32:17
  I brought it out to them.
• 32:19
  Right next to the stadium.
• 32:21
  So I'll then get my wine, they'll give me my food.
• 32:23
  We'll get together after the game.
• 32:25
  Please join us to share a glass of wine.
• 32:36
  This game goes to the third inning with the Phillies leading it three to nothing.
• 32:40
  And Steve Carleton has yet to allow a base runner.
• 32:43
  He has mowed the braves down three straight per inning
• 32:46
  and now he goes to the bottom third of the lineup and rat Gilbert.
• 32:49
  Right handed batter.
• 32:50
  Carleton winds pitched to him a fastball low outside ball one.
• 32:54
  Gilbert is batting 2-26.
• 32:58
  The next pitch to him a strike call right at the knees.
• 33:01
  Gilbert, somebody's getting him out but the Phillies have had a lot of trouble with him.
• 33:05
  He had two more hits last night including an RBI double.
• 33:08
  Next pitch is in the dirt as a curveball comes inside.
• 33:11
  Two and one.
• 33:12
  Gilbert hit a home run the winning game for Phil Vickro in Atlanta last week.
• 33:16
  Swing and a miss.
• 33:19
  Two and two to count to Rod Gilbert leading off the Atlanta third inning.
• 33:24
  Bright sunny day here at Veteran Stadium.
• 33:26
  Next pitch on the way, swing and a miss.
• 33:28
  Carleton picks up his third strike out of the ball game.
• 33:33
  That's one out on the third inning and here is Craig Robinson.
• 33:41
  Robinson is batting 2-35.
• 33:46
  Robbie has had only 17 at bats this year and has four hits.
• 33:51
  He's a right handed batter once owned by the Phillies.
• 33:53
  Here's the pitch to him.
• 33:54
  He lays down a bun.
• 33:55
  It's hit pretty hard first base side.
• 33:57
  Hebner fields throws to Seismore in time.
• 34:00
  Seismore did a slide into the bag and then off again as Robinson slid into the bag.
• 34:05
  And that was a good defensive play by the Phillies.
• 34:09
  Carleton was a little late getting over to cover first and Seismore saw that right away.
• 34:13
  He's a good little heads up ball player and he saw that the bag was uncovered.
• 34:17
  He got there just ahead of Craig Robinson who runs very well.
• 34:21
  Here's Steve Hargan the batter.
• 34:23
  First pitch to him is low inside a ball.
• 34:25
  He's been in the American League.
• 34:26
  We have no batting figures on him.
• 34:28
  Of course he hasn't probably been to the plate for a couple of years anyway.
• 34:31
  The next pitch is over for a strike.
• 34:32
  He's a right handed batter.
• 34:39
  Carleton Wines here's the 1-1 pitch on the way.
• 34:41
  Strike 2 called.
• 34:42
  It's like riding a bike though.
• 34:44
  He grabbed that bat and found home plate alright.
• 34:50
  Carleton Wines again here's the 1-2 pitch on the way to Hargan.
• 34:53
  Gave him a curved ball and struck him out.
• 34:55
  That's not fair.
• 34:56
  Carleton picks up his fourth strikeout.
• 34:59
  And in the third inning again the Braves retired in order at the end of 2-1.5.
• 35:03
  Nothing now time for a tasty break.
• 35:06
  That gives those fantastic fillets their good name.
• 35:09
  They're all a feature in every player on the team.
• 35:11
  Just like it's all the good things fresh baked in the tasty cake that gives tasty cakes their good name.
• 35:17
  Whether it's tasty cake chocolate cupcakes, cream filled cupcakes, delicious crimpits,
• 35:22
  and tasty cake candy cakes too.
• 35:24
  Tasty cakes like those phenomenal fillets are all a good thing.
• 35:28
  Grab that one.
• 35:29
  Hey, here's the one that's fun.

  Bake McBride will lead off to Philly's third inning, so here he is as a lead off man after all.
• 36:40
  Bake batting in the number two spot on the order today.
• 36:42
  Left handed batter, check swing foul ball wide of third base strike one.
• 36:47
  I'm always used to look at that bat he used when he was with St. Louis and wonder how short it really is.
• 36:51
  And went down and picked it up today, and I bet it's no more than 31 or 32 inches.
• 36:55
  It's like a kid would use in Babe Ruth's leg almost, a very, very short bat.
• 36:59
  Swings and misses at the next pitch, which was low and inside.
• 37:03
  No balls and two strikes on McBride.
• 37:05
  He is 0 for 2 as a Philly, having grounded out as a pinch hitter last night.
• 37:10
  And today, he flyed out to left field.
• 37:12
  Here's the pitch to him.
• 37:13
  The ball beyond the mound, Hargan couldn't get it, he slowed it down, and McBride is safe at first base.
• 37:18
  Hargan would have been better off had he not touched that ball.
• 37:22
  I believe it would have been played by Gilbrith at second without a problem, but Hargan slowed it down, changed its direction, and Bake McBride has his first Philly set.
• 37:30
  We've seen that act enough times when he was with St. Louis.
• 37:33
  He likes to just beat the ball down in the infield somewhere, and that would have been a close play even if the pitcher hadn't touched it.
• 37:38
  But he's in the first pitch, and once he touched it, McBride was no concept, and the way he can run.
• 37:43
  McBride comes to the Phillies with nine stolen bases, which already ties him for club high with Gary Maddox, who got two last night and now has nine.
• 37:56
  Here's Mike Schmidt.
• 37:57
  Trenty tripled his first time up as a drive hit the center field wall and bounded wildly away from Bennell.
• 38:03
  He scored later on a wild pitch.
• 38:05
  Throw to first base, head first back in time as McBride.
• 38:10
  He has, he almost has both feet on the afterturf, which is an outstanding lead.
• 38:14
  It's the type of lead that Joe Morgan takes, and there aren't too many Phillies that get this kind of a lead.
• 38:20
  Pitch on the way to Schmidt is popped up.
• 38:22
  Willie Monteneuve looking out of an foul ground beside first base.
• 38:26
  Willie gloves it for the out.
• 38:28
  Schmidt, he fouls out to Monteneuve.
• 38:30
  That's the second play he's made just like that today.
• 38:32
  Maddox hit one to him in that same spot.
• 38:34
  And that's one down here's Greg Luzinsky.
• 38:36
  He put the wrap around catch on it.
• 38:39
  I've seen him do it so many times that he still makes you laugh the way he does.
• 38:43
  And the crowd really reacts to Willie when he catches the ball.
• 38:45
  He was a very popular guy in this town and the fans still really love him.
• 38:50
  Luzinsky struck out on his first at bat.
• 38:54
  Bowl batting 3-37.
• 38:56
  And when you come out to the ballpark and cast your ballot for the All-Star game,
• 39:00
  oh, here's somebody you got to keep in mind.
• 39:03
  Luzinsky is no higher than seventh in the latest balloting.
• 39:06
  And, well, he really ought to be higher than that.
• 39:10
  For example, Lou Brock is out balloting him right now.
• 39:14
  And Brock has not even played regularly.
• 39:16
  There goes McBride, which is high a ball throw to second state.
• 39:20
  Steel number 10 for Bank and his first as a filly.
• 39:24
  Oh, what a jump he got that time.
• 39:26
  Is it going to be fun watching this guy play a little bit?
• 39:28
  He had a tremendous jump on that ball and just made second base easily on it.
• 39:32
  And McBride is a base stealer.
• 39:34
  There are some guys who have speed and aren't base stealers.
• 39:37
  And Bank McBride is a base stealer and he really stole that one easy.
• 39:42
  Count of one ball to Luzinsky.
• 39:45
  What a difference that can make.
• 39:46
  Now we've got a runner at second base, thread of the double play eliminated.
• 39:49
  Pitch on the way to the ball, checks his swing, but it's a called strike.
• 39:53
  Lucco ball is in there, one ball and one strike.
• 39:57
  Greg, the filly's top RBI man, he's got 45.
• 40:11
  Little by play at second base as Gilbert had come in behind.
• 40:14
  Now Bakes getting that big lead again.
• 40:17
  And here's the pitch to the ball.
• 40:19
  It sails beyond Carrell.
• 40:21
  Bake McBride will go to third base.
• 40:23
  Boy, that one really got away from Hargan, that'll be a wild pitch.
• 40:28
  Second wild pitch of the ball game, the first one cost him a run and this one really sailed.
• 40:34
  Carrell had no chance.
• 40:35
  That was a fast ball and it just completely got away from Carrell.
• 40:38
  That's Bake McBride had a tremendous lead off of second base that time and he had Hargan looking at him.
• 40:44
  And he made a false break towards third on that and I think he might have caught Carrell's eye a little bit like he was going to steal third.
• 40:50
  That's the type of player he is, he gets people a little excited out there.
• 40:55
  Twice the fillies have scored runners from third base in this game with two down.
• 40:59
  Now they have a runner at third with one away.
• 41:02
  Pitch to Luzinski, swinging and a mid-strike two, two balls and two strikes.
• 41:09
  Fillies on top on the scoreboard, three to nothing, fills batting in the third inning, trying to sweep the Atlanta Braves.
• 41:15
  To set up the proper atmosphere for tomorrow night's big match against the Cincinnati Reds.
• 41:20
  Pitch to Luzinski, ground ball right side, base hit for the ball, here comes McBride with the fourth run of the game, fills lead at four and nothing.
• 41:28
  RBI number 46 for the ball.
• 41:31
  What a reception McBride is getting in the fillies dugout too because he made that run by stealing second and getting the attention of the catcher in the wild pitch and going to third.
• 41:40
  And then Bull who is just so unbelievably strong hit that ball on the end of his bat and squibbed it through the infield and gets another RBI and he continues his hot-hitting.
• 41:59
  Scored in every advance so far today, Richie Hevner headed for the plate.
• 42:02
  He wound up on second base with a two-base error by left fielder Gary Matthews.
• 42:08
  And it was a pop fly in shallow left field.
• 42:11
  Shortstop Robinson was back to field if it was called off the ball.
• 42:14
  Here's a pop-up behind the plate.
• 42:16
  Carell Maskoff coming back.
• 42:18
  He is out of room.
• 42:21
  Bounds on the covering of the runway right behind the home plate area.
• 42:26
  One strike on Hevner.
• 42:28
  Hevner then came around to score on the double play ball hit by Seismore.
• 42:36
  Phillies have scored four runs in the game.
• 42:38
  Only two RBIs have been awarded.
• 42:40
  One to Carleton and one to Lozinski.
• 42:43
  Phillies scored one run in a wild pitch and one on a double play ball.
• 42:48
  One strike pitch to Hevner.
• 42:50
  Popped up again foul out of play over top the Atlanta dugout.
• 43:00
  Hevner behind in the count.
• 43:02
  No balls and two strikes.
• 43:03
  Hevner has been scoring a lot of runs for the Phillies.
• 43:06
  He scored one already today.
• 43:07
  That's his sixth run in the last four ball games.
• 43:15
  Steve Hargan making his first National League appearance this afternoon.
• 43:21
  He stretches and here's the pitch to Hevner.
• 43:23
  Checks it and takes outside.
• 43:29
  Hevner is warming up in the bullpen for the Atlanta Braves.
• 43:33
  Collins the only left hander in their pitching staff right now.
• 43:37
  Jamie Easterly is on the disabled list.
• 43:40
  There goes Lozinski.
• 43:41
  Swing and a foul ball to first base.
• 43:45
  Bull was really chopping it out towards second base.
• 43:49
  You could almost hear it up here.
• 43:50
  He was plundering going down there.
• 43:52
  He's got the good choppy compact stride.
• 43:54
  Once he gets rolling, Greggle's surprise how fast he really is.
• 43:57
  It just takes him a little bit to get going.
• 43:59
  You can see that in the outfield once in a while when he'll run by a ball.
• 44:02
  How long it takes him to stop.
• 44:06
  Bow has got the great stories about what it's like to be chugging back into left field on a pop fly ball.
• 44:13
  Here's the sound coming in from behind.
• 44:16
  There he goes again.
• 44:17
  The one-two pitch.
• 44:18
  Windrye right center field of base hit.
• 44:21
  The bull will make it to third base on the single by Hevner.
• 44:24
  And there is the value of running Lozinski.
• 44:27
  Reigners at first and third.
• 44:36
  Hit number seven for the Phillies.
• 44:39
  And David Bristol is making his way toward the mound.
• 44:41
  And he is going to make a pitching change.
• 44:44
  Steve Hargan's debut in the National League is not exactly a success as he will bring in left-hander Don Collins.
• 44:51
  Phillies lead the ball game four to nothing with the potential for more in the third inning and we'll be back following this message.
• 44:57
  Once upon a time there was a happy little family.
• 45:00
  Everybody happy?
• 45:01
  Happy as a lark.
• 45:02
  Happy as a plant.
• 45:03
  Indeed there was a happiest little family you would ever care to meet until it came time to get in their car.
• 45:08
  Look just get in the car.
• 45:10
  I don't want to go to the last one.
• 45:12
  What made them unhappy was that they could never seem to find a car that was right for them.
• 45:16
  It was either too big and expensive.
• 45:18
  Maybe we could skip the house payment this month or too small and uncomfortable.
• 45:22
  Small in here.
• 45:23
  More levels in my eyes.
• 45:25
  Sorry.
• 45:26
  Then one day father happily announced he had found a car that was just right for them.
• 45:30
  A Buick Century Custom.
• 45:32
  Being a midsize it was neither too big nor too small for them.
• 45:36
  And being a Buick it had a V6 engine.
• 45:38
  Lots of room and comfort and a famous Buick ride.
• 45:41
  And that pleased them to go in.
• 45:43
  I'm pleased with punch.
• 45:45
  I'm tickled pink.
• 45:46
  I have to go on the back.
• 45:47
  All of which proves one thing.
• 45:49
  Maybe money can't buy you happiness.
• 45:51
  But it can buy you a Buick Century Custom.
• 45:53
  Which for a lot of people is pretty much the same thing.
• 46:03
  Fans of the Phillies players need your support in the balloting for the 1977 National League All-Star Team.
• 46:09
  Greg Luzinski of course having a tremendous year and he deserves to be on the squad.
• 46:13
  And don't forget the other Phillies on the ball.
• 46:17
  Larry Bowe, Mike Schmidt, Ted Seismore, Gary Maddox, Che Johnstone and Bob Boone.
• 46:21
  Richie Hebner is not on the ballot but he certainly deserves your consideration as a right-in candidate.
• 46:26
  So fill out a ballot at Veteran Stadium or look for one on the special Gillette display in your neighborhood store.
• 46:31
  Vote now and have a say at who plays in the All-Star game in Yankee Stadium July 19.
• 46:37
  Well Steve Hargan is out of the ballgame after two and one-third innings during which he gave up seven hits and four runs.
• 46:43
  And a left-hander Don Collins is taking over.
• 46:47
  Collins has a one and four record and a 5.00 earned run average.
• 46:52
  He has earned two saves.
• 46:53
  Collins appearing in his 15th ballgame as were 27 innings giving up 29 hits and 15 earned runs.
• 47:01
  Don Collins taking over. He has pitched previously against the Phillies though he has no lifetime record against the Phillies.
• 47:12
  Phillies saw Don Collins last weekend when they were in Atlanta.
• 47:16
  He pitched last Saturday going just one-third of an inning and the Phillies got one hit and one run off him during that time.
• 47:29
  The first man he will face is left-handed batting Tim McAvlar.
• 47:33
  Timmy is single to shortstop and scored in the second inning.
• 47:42
  Collins stretches, pitched on the way to McAvlar. A good breaking ball over for a strike.
• 47:52
  Timmy's average back over the 300 mark as a result of that hit he's batting 3-10.
• 47:57
  He pitched to him high, fastball missing one ball and one strike.
• 48:01
  One out on the inning. The runner at third base is Luzinski. The runner at first base is Hedner.
• 48:09
  Collins at the bell. Here's his pitch. Low and a good stop by Carell.
• 48:21
  He's got balls and one strike. Well, we're still initiating Chris Wheeler into the broadcast business and today he got another lesson courtesy of Western Union.
• 48:28
  I see you have purple fingers, Chris.
• 48:30
  I can't believe that machine could have that much ink in it.
• 48:33
  Pitch on the way to Timmy backs him away. Way inside, 3-1.
• 48:38
  Well, that ink is stored in an unusual place because it doesn't print that dark. It only gets... You only see the ink when you reach in there.
• 48:46
  Does this stuff wash off? I've seen asperg tans like this for 15 years.
• 48:49
  It'll be off in a day or so. Next pitch to Timmy is grounded foul off the first base side.
• 48:59
  Count is full on McArthur. Three balls and two strikes. Phillies have the jump in the ball game 4-0 to the ace of their stats, Steve Carlin.
• 49:10
  Left-hander Don Collins replacing starter Steve Hargan. Pitch on the way to McArthur, swinging in a miss.
• 49:16
  Timmy strikes out, stolen base for Hevner as he slides into second base. No throw at all.
• 49:23
  Second stolen base for Hevner. Timmy's striking out for the second out of the inning.
• 49:34
  Here's Bolo who dropped down a bun toward the third base side. His last time up, he was there as a left-handed batter at the time.
• 49:40
  And the brace didn't play the ball correctly at all. The rest of the third baseman turned his back on and went back to the bag.
• 49:47
  No chance that Bolo was going to be out on that play.
• 49:52
  Phillies with runners at second and third, two outs in the inning.
• 49:58
  Pitch on the way to Bolo is outside ball one.
• 50:03
  Remember the late starting time tomorrow night, 8.35 to accommodate Keith Jackson, Howard Cosell and Bob Euker.
• 50:10
  They'll be here to televise the game nationally, blacked out in Philadelphia.
• 50:14
  Pitch to Bolo, you want to take bets on who Howard will have lunch with?
• 50:19
  He has two or three lunches on days of the game, I think. Sparky's got to be with him. I mean, that's number one.
• 50:28
  The ball's a no-strikes on Boa.
• 50:35
  Here's the pitch on the way from Collins and it's a fly ball, shallow right field.
• 50:39
  A pop-up really. Gilbert's going back and he gloves it for the third out of the inning.
• 50:43
  And the inning is over but the Phillies have scored another run. They do it on three hits, two stolen bases in the inning, and two men left on.
• 50:52
  They'll have to play by play in a moment. At the end of three, the Phillies lead it four to nothing.
• 50:59

• 52:28
  Barry Bernal leads off with a braze, takes the pitch outside for a ball and Carlton's next pitch of fastball is swinging a foul tip.
• 52:35
  What I want to count to Bernal, he'll be followed by Jerry Royster.
• 52:39
  He's leading 4-0, we're in the fourth inning.
• 52:45
  Here's the pitch on the way, swaying in a miss at a good curveball, balling two strikes to count to Bernal.
• 52:58
  Wind up by Carlton, one-two pitch, blowing inside, gets away from McCarver and off plate umpire Paul Pryor.
• 53:07
  Paul is two and two to Barry Bernal, he fly out to center his first time up.
• 53:17
  Here's the two-two pitch curveball high for a ball, full count to Bernal.
• 53:26
  Now to wind up by Carlton, three-two pitch, swaying a foul out of play, back up into the upper deck.
• 53:33
  He bounces out of the upper deck and into the lower seat.
• 53:40
  Three and two to count to Barry Bernal.
• 53:44
  Three-two pitch, swaying a tap foul down the third base side.
• 53:51
  Added stage three and two to it.
• 53:59
  Here's the pitch on the way as well as it flowed, but it was a two-two count evidently and now it is three and two.
• 54:07
  Three balls and two strikes to count to Bernal.
• 54:12
  Three-two pitch, swaying in a pop-up down the right field foul line, long run, Hevner in front of the picnic area, can't pull off the play.
• 54:21
  Bounces into the picnic area.
• 54:24
  Good effort by Richie Hevner. Let's pause for station identification on the Phil's Baseball Network.
• 54:29
  The Lehigh Valley's number one station for news and sports, bringing you Philly's Baseball for the 20th year. W-E-S-T, Easton.
• 54:43
  Full count to Bernal, wind up by Carlton. Three-two pitch, swaying in a melody stuck him out with a good fastball.
• 54:50
  Two-two strikeouts for Carlton. One down here in the fourth, that'll bring on Jerry Reister, grounded out second to first this first time up.
• 55:02
  In Montreal this afternoon, Woody Freiman pitching for Cincinnati and Wayne Twitchell, getting a start for the exposed Cincinnati failed in the first.
• 55:13
  Here's the first pitch to Reister, swing and a looper down the right field foul line, Hevner a nice over the shoulder, captioned foul ground.
• 55:21
  Well, Reister is out. Two down in the fourth, and that'll bring up Willie Montanez, who lined out to Gary Maddox's first time up.
• 55:34
  Carlton here is really mowing him down in the early going. Philly's leading four-nothing in the fourth inning.
• 55:41
  Willie takes a lot of time before he gets into the batter's box.
• 55:46
  Carlton looks like he really has good stuff today. He's getting his breaking ball over almost any time he wants and jamming a lot of hitters with his fastball.
• 55:54
  To me, it looks like one of his better performances as far as stuff wise.
• 55:58
  Pitch to Montanez is a fastball, low and away for a ball, one and nothing.
• 56:07
  Pitch on the way, curve ball of beauty for a strike called one and one.
• 56:12
  It's encouraging because Carlton in his last outing against Cincinnati did not have good stuff.
• 56:18
  Carlton had popped his back, something popped in his back actually before the game.
• 56:24
  Tim McIver said his stuff was very mediocre.
• 56:27
  One-one pitch, swinging a foul back and he's in front of Montanez, one ball and two strikes.
• 56:33
  He threw a lot of flat pitches, they say, and pitches that just kind of sit there and don't do anything.
• 56:38
  His breaking ball wasn't moving, his fastball wasn't moving, and he was lucky not to get hit harder than he did that night.
• 56:44
  One-two pitch, sidearm fastball popped him up to shallow left. Larry Bow out coming in Maddox. Jerry calls him off, squeezes him.
• 56:53
  Carlton now has retired the first 12 in a row. No runs hit the rares and none left.
• 56:58
  And after three and a half, it's four nothing fills.
• 57:03
  Hi, this is Harry Callis saying this is the year the Phillies go all the way.
• 57:06
  And if you're a true Phillies fan, you'll want to get in on the excitement.

  To make it in the gas station business, you got to stay one step ahead of everybody else.
• 57:35
  So with my Sonoco, I've got something nobody else has.
• 57:38
  Sonoco's penny-pinching pump. It could save you money on quality gas like my 190.
• 57:43
  The gas that's made itself below my regular.
• 57:46
  And most cars that run on regular can use it.
• 57:48
  Hey, if I don't want you to pass me by, I got to give you a price you can't pass up.
• 57:52
  Sonoco's penny-pinching pump. It can fill up your tank for less. That's my way of being very friendly.
• 57:59
  Did you know that if you're using gas with higher octane and your engine needs, you're literally wasting your money?
• 58:05
  That's why Sonoco has the penny-pinching pump with 190 and 220. Both are quality gasoline.
• 58:12
  My 190 could save you money if your car runs on regular.
• 58:15
  And my 220 could save you money if your car runs on premium.
• 58:18
  Saving you money on quality gas is my way of being very friendly.
• 58:23
  Sonoco's penny-pinching pump. It could fill up your tank for less.
• 58:33
  Step size more. We'll lead off to the fills here in the bottom half of the fourth.
• 58:36
  The nigh size grounded into a double play his first time up.
• 58:40
  Billy's lead 4-0.
• 58:43
  Except seven hits. Don Collins on relief is Steve Hargett.
• 58:49
  Young left-hander's first pitch to size. Fastball high for a ball.
• 58:54
  Want nothing to count the size more.
• 58:58
  Pitch on the way is a breaking ball that's low. It's two and a half to size more.
• 59:03
  Houston and New York, they're in the bottom half of the second inning. Nothing-nothing.
• 59:07
  Joaquin Anduhar for Houston and Craig Swan for the Mets.
• 59:12
  Two-0 pitch. Low for a ball. Three and nothing to count the size more.
• 59:17
  And Anduhar's having a good year for Houston. He's eight and three.
• 59:23
  Three-0 pitch. High ball four. Walk him on four pitchers.
• 59:28
  So size is a base runner with nobody out. That'll bring up Steve Carlton.
• 59:32
  Lefty's single to knock in a run in his own behalf his first time up.
• 59:37
  Collins the left-hander comes out of Lyons, Georgia. He has good stuff but he is wild.
• 59:44
  That's the 16th walk to his issue.
• 59:48
  In 27 innings, a throw to first and size is back. He's struck out nine and walked 16.
• 59:57
  Carlton probably will be punning here. The stretch by Collins and the pitch to Steve.
• 1:00:02
  The bun puns it nicely but it trickles foul down the third base line.
• 1:00:07
  One strike to count to Steve Carlton.
• 1:00:15
  Hebsize more. First base. Nobody out. Philly's leading four zips.
• 1:00:20
  In the American League, Cleveland under new manager Jeff Torbord leading three-nothing after six against Detroit.
• 1:00:26
  Here's the pitch on the way and a bun try is fouled off. It's nothing in two to Carlton.
• 1:00:33
  Johnny Hiller going for Detroit. Wayne Garland for Cleveland.
• 1:00:37
  Andre Thorne is at a homer for the tribe. His seventh in Larval Blykes number three.
• 1:00:42
  First game of double header at Chicago. White Sox lead open one-nothing.
• 1:00:47
  Wilbur Wood against Mike Norris. Lamar Johnson a homer for the Pail Hoes.
• 1:00:52
  Pitch to Carlton. Around a bun he takes it wide for a ball. One and two to Steve Carlton.
• 1:00:59
  Baltimore and Toronto are one-one after four. Mike Flanagan against Dave LeManshech.
• 1:01:06
  Here's the pitch. Carlton tries to bunt and misses it so he's a strikeout picker.
• 1:01:12
  Second strikeout for Collins. One down here in the fourth. That'll bring up the top of the order.
• 1:01:17
  Gary Manox who is fouled out and flyed out to center field.
• 1:01:21
  New York at Boston. New York failed in the top of the first.
• 1:01:25
  Eddon Figaroa against Ferguson Jenkins.
• 1:01:30
  Minnesota, Kansas City. Dave Golds going against Andy Hasler in California.
• 1:01:35
  Milwaukee Frank Canada going for number eleven for California against Brian Haas.
• 1:01:41
  Seattle will be a Texas tonight.
• 1:01:46
  Seismore first base and one out. There goes Seismore. The pitch is high to throw by Carell
• 1:01:53
  and the size is out at second base. Seismore thrown out of captain to steal.
• 1:01:59
  Pick Carell to ride Gilbert for out number two.
• 1:02:04
  Ball of no strikes to count. Gary Manox.
• 1:02:13
  Have a pitch to Manox. He pops a foul back out of play.
• 1:02:18
  Into the press box area. One strike to count. And a ball to Gary Manox.
• 1:02:25
  Two outs. No base runners. Four nothing. Fills bottom of the fourth.
• 1:02:30
  Have a pitch. Breaking ball. Ground of the third. Reister has it. Throws. Manox is out.
• 1:02:36
  Philly's retired in the fourth. No runs. Hits the rear as a none left.
• 1:02:39
  And after four it's four nothing filled.
• 1:02:43
  You want it. We got it. That's your price for climate dealers.

  Jeff Burroughs leading off for the Braves here in the fifth take to breaking ball though for a ball.
• 1:04:20
  Burroughs struck out his first time up. Leaves the National League and runs
• 1:04:25
  battled in with 55 tied for the lead in homers, 18 skies one in the
• 1:04:30
  shallow right center, long run mad-eyed keys there.
• 1:04:35
  Burroughs is out one down. That'll bring up Gary Matthews. He was called out on strikes his first time up.
• 1:04:45
  That's the gorgeous day for baseball today and we have great crowd on it.
• 1:04:53
  Pitch on the way to Matthews. Swing and a hard ground ball gobbled up by Schmidt.
• 1:04:57
  He throws, Matthews is out two down. That'll bring on Vic Carell.
• 1:05:05
  Carell is grounded back to the mound his first time up on a nice play by Carl.
• 1:05:14
  Four nothing fillies were in the fifth. Pitch on the way to Carell swings and he
• 1:05:25
  follows it back. One strike to Vic Carell.
• 1:05:36
  These Carlton's pitch changes high for a ball that's one of one.
• 1:05:47
  Now to wind up by Carlton. One one pitch breaking ball didn't miss by much.
• 1:05:52
  A little bit low. Two and one to count to Carell.
• 1:06:02
  Here's the two one pitch. Swings and he misses it. A sharp breaking curve ball.
• 1:06:07
  Two and two to count to Vic Carell with two outs.
• 1:06:10
  That breaking ball is really biting in on these right handed hitters and when he had that great year in 72 that's what it did for him.
• 1:06:17
  Two two pitch fastball fouled back out of play. Phase two and two.
• 1:06:24
  How Carlton will be happy to see his lifelong buddy. Tonight Joe Horner coming in with a Cincinnati Red.
• 1:06:33
  What a character he is. Well I'll be glad to see him Harry. He's a great guy.
• 1:06:36
  A lot of fun. Here's the two two pitch. Breaking ball a little bit high. A full count of it. Carell.
• 1:06:43
  There's a chance that he and Macarver and Horner might go out some more tonight I think.
• 1:06:49
  Possibility. Three two pitch breaking ball missed ball four and Vic Carell becomes the first base runner for the Atlanta Braves.
• 1:06:58
  Carlton retired the first 14 men in a row. Carell the first braid to reach base with two outs that'll bring on Rod Gilbert.
• 1:07:08
  Gilbert struck out his first time up.
• 1:07:15
  Here's a pitch to Gilbert. Curve ball that misses outside ball one.
• 1:07:29
  Now the pitch. Right. Get called. Gilbert tried to check his swing. Slider was there.
• 1:07:37
  Ball hit his bat. Tipped into the glove of Tim Macarver. It's one and one.
• 1:07:45
  Now the one one pitch. Passball missed outside two and one.
• 1:07:50
  Joe Morgan Pete Rose John Bench George Fostering Company here tomorrow Tuesday and Wednesday night.
• 1:07:57
  There's a check swing ground ball to Richie Hebner makes the unassisted put out. Raise her down in the film. No runs no hits no errors in one lap.
• 1:08:07
  After four and a half Phillies four Atlanta nothing.
• 1:08:11

  I have a sign for home run payoff. The exciting game of the Daily News that puts the Phillies at bat for you.
• 1:09:19
  If your name is Rhett and a Philly Homers you win $1,000 or $5,000 if it's the Grand Slam.
• 1:09:25
  If no homers did you win four reserves seats to an upcoming Phillies game.
• 1:09:30
  Last year the Daily News paid out $30,000 and this year it's your turn.
• 1:09:36
  Use the entry coupon on the Daily News and let home run payoff stay off for you.
• 1:09:41
  Leading off to the Phils in our home run payoff inning will be Peyton McFry the right-feeler.
• 1:09:46
  He'll be batting for Daniel Banto of Camden, New Jersey.
• 1:09:50
  The Pekins fly it out to left. Singled and stolen the base and scored a run.
• 1:09:57
  Philly's leading four zip bottom half of the Phils.
• 1:10:07
  Don Collins. Wines of the first pitch to McFry high and tight to him ball one.
• 1:10:18
  One on nothing to count to bake.
• 1:10:22
  One-oh pitch on the way breaking ball tap foul down the first base side.
• 1:10:26
  One on one to count to bake McFry.
• 1:10:31
  Philly's trying for a sweep for the Atlanta Braves.
• 1:10:35
  Patty here tomorrow night game time tomorrow night 8.35 and on Tuesday and Wednesday nights it'll be 7.35.
• 1:10:42
  Jim Catt tomorrow night for the Phils and Fred Norman for the Reds.
• 1:10:48
  One-one pitch. Baking ball in the dirt it's two and one.
• 1:11:00
  Here's the two on to McFry. Very high pop up in the infield.
• 1:11:05
  Second baseman Rod Gilbert right near the bag makes the grab.
• 1:11:09
  Puff play with his high sky and Gilbert stayed right with it and made the play.
• 1:11:15
  Gilbert has done a good job at second base. He's a competitor in it.
• 1:11:20
  Hard nose ball player. One down. Here's Mike Schmidt.
• 1:11:24
  Daniel Bannon in the jersey you'll get four reserves. He tickets to a future Philly game.
• 1:11:30
  Schmidt is tripled in his quarter run and pops up.
• 1:11:33
  He's swinging for a thousand bucks for Lucille Brown of Philadelphia.
• 1:11:38
  The pitch to Schmidt. Fastball high for a ball.
• 1:11:50
  One-one pitch. Very high ball. Two-two and nothing to count to Schmidt.
• 1:12:00
  Callum's 24 years old. He comes out of Georgia. Lyons, Georgia.
• 1:12:06
  Has a good arm. Two-one pitch. Fastball grounded the third.
• 1:12:12
  Right off the glove of Roycer it carries into foul territory backed up by Robinson.
• 1:12:18
  I'll have to wait and see how they score. It'll be scored as a base hit for Mike Schmidt.
• 1:12:23
  Took a funny hop off the seam.
• 1:12:26
  So Schmidt at first base with one down. That'll bring on Greg Luzinsty.
• 1:12:30
  Lucille Brown of Philadelphia will get four reserves. He tickets to a future Philly game.
• 1:12:36
  The ball is swinging for a thousand dollars for Joseph Dalmer of Frankfort Avenue in Philadelphia.
• 1:12:44
  The ball is struck out and single. There's a pitch to him. Fastball high for a ball.
• 1:12:56
  One-on-nothing to count to the ball.
• 1:13:03
  Now the pitch to Greg. Try to check his swing on a low-breaking ball, did he?
• 1:13:08
  The ball prior looking over at Andy Olson set up to check swing. Two-on-nothing to count to Greg Luzinsty.
• 1:13:14
  Ball is knocked in a run with a base hit. Now his 46 runs batted in on the air.
• 1:13:21
  There's the pitch to Luzinsty. Swanging a very high pop into shallow right field.
• 1:13:27
  Rod Gilbrith going out. Fighting the Sun makes the grab.
• 1:13:31
  Schmidt scampers back to first base. Luzinsty skies out to Gilbrith. Two down.
• 1:13:37
  Joseph Dalmer of Philadelphia will get four reserves. He tickets to a future Philly game.
• 1:13:43
  That brings up Richie Hevner. Hevner batting for Edward Casser of Philadelphia.
• 1:13:50
  Richie's been safe on a two-base air and has singled.
• 1:13:56
  Schmidt at first two outs. Philly's lead four-nothing bottom of the fifth.
• 1:14:06
  Fastball inside to Hevner for a ball.
• 1:14:14
  One-on-nothing to Richie Hevner. Throw to first base. Schmidt was not even off the bat.
• 1:14:26
  Gallon stretches. There goes Schmidt. Breaking ball is high. Carell's throw is not in time.
• 1:14:36
  A stolen base for Mike Schmidt. Schmidt he feels number six on the air.
• 1:14:44
  Mike at second base with two outs. The count is two-and-nothing to Richie Hevner.
• 1:14:48
  Philly's have really come out running this afternoon. I don't know whether it's Carell
• 1:14:51
  or whether they just want to change their image a little bit, but the team's kind of been standing around
• 1:14:55
  and this is much more exciting to watch. Here's the pitch to Hevner.
• 1:14:59
  High fly ball center of field. Barry Vanellis right there. He makes the catch
• 1:15:04
  and the Phillies are retired in the fifth. Edward Casser of Philadelphia.
• 1:15:08
  You'll get four reserves. He tickets to a future Philly's game. Join us again tomorrow night
• 1:15:12
  when in a designated inning you may win up to $5,000 in daily news home run payoff.
• 1:15:18
  No runs are hit. No errors. One left. After five it's four nothing fills.
• 1:15:23
  It's time for a tasteie break. Now it's time for a tasty case great moment in baseball.
• 1:15:28
  One and one to William. Everybody quiet now here at Fenway Park after they gave him a standing ovation
• 1:15:35
  of two minutes knowing that this is probably his last time at bat. One out, nobody on, last of the eighth inning.
• 1:15:42
  Jack Fisher into his wind-up. Here's the pitch. William swings and there's a long drive to Hevner.
• 1:15:48
  Now he's putting his foot in the back of the league.
• 1:15:55
  And that's how Kurt Gowdy sounded as Ted Williams homered off Jack Fisher of Baltimore on September 28, 1960
• 1:16:02
  ending a dazzling career with a booming home run in his last time at bat.
• 1:16:06
  Williams was great because he worked hard. Tasty Cake works hard too to bring you the very best tasting cake money can buy.

• 1:17:25
  Here's the 2-1 pitch, fouled back at 2 and 2. Tom Fechorek has moved into the on-deck circle, the pinch-hip.
• 1:17:32
  The pitcher, Don Collins and Buzz Capra is up in the praise bullpen.
• 1:17:38
  2 and 2 to count to Craig Robinson. The 2-2 pitch, swaying in a foul back.
• 1:17:46
  Phase 2 and 2 to Craig Robinson, leading off the Braves 6 Atlanta's only base runner, Vic Carell, who walked in the fifth.
• 1:17:55
  2-2 pitch, missed by much, a little bit high at full count.
• 1:18:19
  Craig Robinson gets back in the batter's box at full count to him. 3-2 pitch, swaying in a very high-fly ball,
• 1:18:26
  shallow center, Gary Maddox coming on. He puts it away, that's one down in the sixth.
• 1:18:33
  Here's Tom Fechorek, the bad for Don Collins. Fechorek hitting a 2-40.
• 1:18:47
  Step 3 home runs, right hand batter, one out, no base runner. 6-thinning.
• 1:18:54
  Here's the pitch to Fechorek. Swings, he chased the low inside slider, one strike to count to him.
• 1:19:06
  He's leading 4-0. The one strike pitch, swaying in a miss. Nothing and 2 to count to Fechorek. He steps out.
• 1:19:21
  Now, Carlton said here's the 2-strike pitch, fast ball high, 1-2. Falling 2 strikes to Fechorek with one out.
• 1:19:39
  And then, ball and 2 strikes to Fechorek with one out in the 6-thinning. Here's Carlton's 1-2 pitch, high for a ball, 2-2.
• 1:19:59
  Now, the 2-2, check swing foul down the left field line off the screen,
• 1:20:04
  and the one in the stands, bounds off to Larry Boa.
• 1:20:09
  It's sure sign, Harry, that his breaking ball is working so much today with all these check swings,
• 1:20:13
  because a hitter starts to swing at the pitch where it's coming and all of a sudden starts to bite in on him,
• 1:20:19
  and he tries to check his swing at the last minute.
• 1:20:21
  2-2 pitch bouncing up there for a ball to full count to Tom Fechorek.
• 1:20:27
  Bruce Spock-Clair is just at a 3-run home run for the New York Mets,
• 1:20:31
  and he tries 4-4-1. 3-2 pitch, swing and a pop foul down the first-face side.
• 1:20:38
  It's out of play.
• 1:20:40
  It stays 3-2 to Pincheter, Tom Fechorek.
• 1:20:48
  Harry Bonnell, the top of the order, waiting on deck.
• 1:20:55
  Here's the 3-2 pitch, swing and a looper in the shallow,
• 1:20:58
  and Pincheter is going to be trouble. Boa can't get it the first hit of the ball again.
• 1:21:03
  Looping single just over the glove of Larry Boa,
• 1:21:08
  and Tom Fechorek has broken up Steve Carlton's no hitter here in the sixth inning.
• 1:21:16
  Not a screaming line drive by any stretch of the imagination,
• 1:21:21
  but a looping single for hit number one for the Braves in the ball game. Here's Barry Bonnell.
• 1:21:31
  Here's the pitch to Bonnell in the tie for a ball.
• 1:21:41
  1-0 nothing to count to Bonnell.
• 1:21:46
  No pitch on the way. Passball is over and it's 1-1.
• 1:21:53
  Billy's lead 4-0, but Fechorek at first with the first hit given up by Carlton.
• 1:22:00
  1-1 pitch, swing and a miss at a good breaking ball,
• 1:22:04
  and 2 strikes to count to Barry Bonnell.
• 1:22:17
  Pitchers are up at San Francisco for Pittsburgh Jim Rooker.
• 1:22:25
  Here's a pop foul out of play. Bob Neff are going for San Francisco.
• 1:22:30
  Pirates have lost 5 straight. Billy's are percentage points behind Pittsburgh.
• 1:22:36
  Fourth place in National Leads East.
• 1:22:40
  1-2 pitch to Bonnell. Swing ground ball foul down the third base side.
• 1:22:45
  It stays a ball and 2 strikes to Barry Bonnell.
• 1:22:52
  Nothing in the third, Woody Priman against Wayne Twitchell.
• 1:23:03
  Here's the pitch to Bonnell and he pops a foul over the screen, stays 1 and 2 to it.
• 1:23:08
  Tom Fechorek at first base and 1-0.
• 1:23:19
  1-2 pitch, playing in a pop up foul. Richie Hebner shading the sun,
• 1:23:24
  fighting it can't make the play. Plans and foul territory.
• 1:23:30
  Bino play stays 1 and 2 to Barry Bonnell.
• 1:23:34
  This is one of those days when the ball goes in the air,
• 1:23:37
  every infielder looks at the other one and hopes he'll call him off because it is really murder.
• 1:23:41
  There's no cloud, there's a very strong wind blowing up above the stadium which really affects the ball.
• 1:23:46
  The bright bright sunlight makes it a terrible day.
• 1:23:49
  It's like trying to catch pop ups in Florida during spring training.
• 1:23:54
  1-2 pitch, fast ball laced into center field.
• 1:23:57
  Maddox coming on makes the catch.
• 1:24:00
  Well hit by Bonnell but caught by Gary Maddox.
• 1:24:03
  He's out of there 2 down. Fechorek holds it first.
• 1:24:06
  And that'll bring on Jerry Reister.
• 1:24:09
  Reister is grounded out and fouled out.
• 1:24:12
  Here's a stretch by Carlton and the pitch to Reister.
• 1:24:24
  Hard shot on one hop, full ahead as it flips to size for the fores on Fechorek and the brazer out on the 6th.
• 1:24:31
  No runs in the inning, Atlanta gets their first hit of the game.
• 1:24:35
  One hit no errors and one left.
• 1:24:37
  Out of the end of 5 1-1 1-2 it's 4-0 fill.
• 1:24:40
  Take me out to the Phillies game, take me out to the vet, buy me some hot dogs.
• 1:24:47
  Hot dogs? Sure, isn't that the best part of a ball game?
• 1:24:50
  Well now you can have the same hot dogs at home that you have at the Phillies game.
• 1:24:54
  They're called Phillies Franks. They're plump, juicy and delicious.
• 1:24:58
  When you go out to the food store get me some Phillies Franks or it's 1-2-3 strike.
• 1:25:04
  It's the next best thing to being there.
• 1:25:06
  Phillies Franks by MedSeries.
• 1:25:10
  Once upon a time there was a couple who needed a car.
• 1:25:12
  I mean we needed a car. My shoes have had it.
• 1:25:14
  They wanted a sensible car because they were sensible people.
• 1:25:17
  We're sensible people. We save strings. We buy bars. We brush regularly. We have our clothes.
• 1:25:21
  But they also wanted a car that was fun because they liked it good time.
• 1:25:24
  Anybody for a quick game of fish? Oh, cold glass of milk and you're on.
• 1:25:27
  Well knowing how hard it is to find a car that is both sensible and fun, they went straight to their Buick dealer
• 1:25:32
  whom they knew to be the most reliable source for such cars.
• 1:25:35
  Say you wouldn't have- Of course he would.
• 1:25:37
  At which point the dealer introduced them to the Buick Skylark.
• 1:25:40
  When the V6 and Genocompact size and the Ample Roomba pointed out, they were amazed at how much sense the Skylark made.
• 1:25:46
  Isn't that amazing? I am bowled over.
• 1:25:49
  And when the famous Buick Rides, Comfort and Road Manners came to their attention, they were quick to see how much fun the Skylark could be.
• 1:25:55
  Gee, that was like fun. Oh, you're not just listening.
• 1:25:58
  They were so overjoyed with their Skylark, they stopped the car, ran up to the first person they saw, hugged them and kissed him.
• 1:26:03
  I'm gonna hug you. I'm gonna kiss him.
• 1:26:05
  Which might not make much sense, but it certainly was fun.
• 1:26:11
  Now the new pitcher for the Atlanta Braves is gonna be Buzz Capron.
• 1:26:15
  Don Collins taken out for a pinch hitter did a good job. Pitched two and two-thirds innings of one hit shut out baseball.
• 1:26:22
  Struck out one, struck out two rather and walked one.
• 1:26:25
  Tim McCarver the first one to face Capron, the first pitch to Tim, slanging a pop foul about a putter.
• 1:26:31
  McCarver has picked up an infield single and struck out.
• 1:26:35
  Capron this year appearing in his 20th game is 16th in relief.
• 1:26:40
  One and seven with a higher in run mark, 7.00. He's given up a lot of home runs, 11 of them.
• 1:26:46
  Pitches outside for a ball.
• 1:26:49
  What a one to count to Tim McCarver.
• 1:26:52
  Bottom of the 6-4 nothing fills.
• 1:26:55
  Pitched it to him, playing in a fly ball center field, Barry Vanell down with a sunglasses.
• 1:27:00
  He has a lot of time.
• 1:27:02
  Puts it away, McCarver is out one down.
• 1:27:05
  We'll bring up Larry Bola. Bola has a Bunt single and has popped up.
• 1:27:11
  Billy's got one of the first on Mike Schmidt's triple. He scored on a wild pitch.
• 1:27:16
  Got two unearned runs in the second when Hedner was safe on a two base there.
• 1:27:20
  McCarver got an infield hit. Bola Bunt single. Here's a looper down the left field line.
• 1:27:26
  Caught by Gary Matthews two down.
• 1:27:33
  Hedner scored in that inning on Ted Seismore's double play ground ball and McCarver scored on a base hit by Steve Carlton.
• 1:27:42
  Right, Lewzinski knocked in the other run.
• 1:27:47
  Seismore is grounded in with double play and walked. Two outs, nobody on base.
• 1:27:52
  Here's a pitch to Seismore, swings and he misses it a breaking ball.
• 1:27:56
  Montreal has scored a run on a footy prime and after three the exposed lead Cincinnati won nothing.
• 1:28:02
  Pitched to Seismore, lying down the right field line, a foul ball and into the picnic area down the right field line.
• 1:28:13
  That's right where my son's little league team is sitting today.
• 1:28:17
  Under Freddy Snare's that ball. Two striped pitch, high and inside for a ball one and two.
• 1:28:24
  He has your hands he didn't.
• 1:28:26
  Oh, now he can field. One two pitch, bouncing fouls, stays one and two to Ted Seismore.
• 1:28:37
  Barry Callis may have two of the nicest sons you'll ever want to meet which is obviously a tribute to Jasmine Callis.
• 1:28:46
  Here's a one two pitch to Seismore, he pops him up.
• 1:28:50
  Shallow right field, Gilbrit going out, Ferro's coming in.
• 1:28:54
  It's Gilbrit who makes the play and the Phillies go down one, two, three and a sixth.
• 1:28:58
  No runs at the rares and none left after six it's four nothing fills.
• 1:29:06
  Now don't forget the Cincinnati Reds, Joe Morgan, John Bench, Pete Rose, George Foster and company will be in tomorrow, Tuesday and Wednesday night.
• 1:29:15
  We have had just tremendous games with that ball club and this series should be the same.
• 1:29:20
  Lana B on hand tomorrow night 835 star time and on Tuesday and Wednesday 735.
• 1:29:29
  Big red machine here Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday night. Jim Coddigan's Fred Norman tomorrow night.
• 1:29:36
  Willie Mopiniers will lead off to the Atlanta Braves here in the seventh.
• 1:29:41
  He is lined out to center and played out to center and Carlton's first pitch to him, slider that missed low for a ball.
• 1:29:49
  What a nothing to count to Monsonnier.
• 1:29:53
  Now the pitch on the way breaking balls, swing and a miss.
• 1:29:57
  Willie loses his batting helmet on the swing, the infestation flips his bat in front of the plate.
• 1:30:04
  Now he is disgustingly walking back to the on-deck circle.
• 1:30:08
  What a wonderful count to Monsonnier.
• 1:30:11
  He flips that bat when he swings like that and he catches it on the other end and he missed it that time.
• 1:30:16
  That really frustrates him.
• 1:30:21
  What a wonderful count to Monsonnier is leading off the Braves seventh.
• 1:30:26
  Now time is called, Greg Luzinski chasing something down in the outfield.
• 1:30:32
  Willie gets back in the batter's box.
• 1:30:36
  One-one pitch to him, curve ball that missed outside, it's two and one.
• 1:30:47
  Here's Carlton's two-one pitch, fastball followed to the screen, two and two to count to Monsonnier.
• 1:30:54
  He goes out to pick up a hot dog wrapper that is coming from the plate.
• 1:30:59
  Which is appropriate.
• 1:31:01
  Yes it is.
• 1:31:03
  Willie plays with a flair.
• 1:31:06
  Here's the two-two pitch, curve ball, line drive, deep right center field.
• 1:31:11
  That ball is all the way back to the warning track off the fence.
• 1:31:15
  Monsonnier's will get a stand-up double out of it.
• 1:31:18
  The second hit given up by Carlton.
• 1:31:21
  Lines double the right center field off the bat of Willie Monsonnier.
• 1:31:26
  So Willie is at second base with nobody out, it'll bring on Jeff Burrows who has struck out and flyed out to center field.
• 1:31:37
  I can hear the pitch to Burrows.
• 1:31:48
  Here's a stretch by Carlton and the pitch to Burrows, fastball high for a ball.
• 1:31:54
  Willie's lead four nothing, we're in the seventh.
• 1:32:02
  One-oh pitch on the way is the breaking ball over for a strike call, one-of-one to count to Burrows.
• 1:32:15
  Here's Carlton's one-one pitch, breaking ball, top foul at the plate.
• 1:32:21
  Ball and two strikes to Jeff Burrows.
• 1:32:25
  Praise Abba, two hits off Steve.
• 1:32:28
  Loping single off the bat, a pinch hitter Tom Pachorike in the sixth and Monsonnier's lead off double here in the seventh.
• 1:32:43
  Here's the one-two pitch, crowded foul of fastball.
• 1:32:48
  In the third corner, one ball and two strikes and holds to Jeff Burrows.
• 1:32:53
  He'll be followed by Gary Matthews.
• 1:33:05
  One-two pitch, fastball strike three called Structema, fastball on the outside corner.
• 1:33:12
  That strikeout number six for Carlton, out number one here in the seventh, it brings on Gary Matthews.
• 1:33:19
  Matthews has been called out on strikes and is grounded off.
• 1:33:31
  Here's the pitch to him, breaking ball, swing and a miss, one strike to count to Matthews.
• 1:33:39
  Like Carlton really has good stuff today.
• 1:33:43
  One strike pitch, fastball grounded, he's short, top foul holds Montagnier's, throws the first, Matthews is out, two down.
• 1:33:52
  Really Montagnier's holding on at second base and that'll bring on Vic Carrell.
• 1:33:56
  Carrell is grounded back to the mound on a nice play by Carlton and has walked.
• 1:34:13
  Here's a stretch in the pitch to Carrell, slider, he tried to check you, swing, did he check?
• 1:34:18
  Yes, according to Andy Olson.
• 1:34:20
  All prior checking with Andy Olson, Olson said no swing.
• 1:34:24
  He's done nothing to count to Vic Carrell.
• 1:34:29
  Here's the one-oh pitch, another breaking ball, it's been high for a ball, it's two and oh.
• 1:34:35
  First game at Cleveland is over, Cleveland defeating Detroit four-two, Wayne Garland won at John Hiller the loser.
• 1:34:43
  Here's the two-oh pitch, he went around on this one, tried to check again but committed himself and it's two and one to Vic Carrell.
• 1:34:52
  He's been able to check swings today by the Atlanta hitters, it's just a tribute to how well Carlton is pitching, what great stuff he has.
• 1:35:00
  Here's the two-one pitch, fastball, swing and a miss, it's two and two to Vic Carrell.
• 1:35:07
  So Jeff Torborg in his managerial debut has won the first game with double header, Cleveland four, Detroit two.
• 1:35:15
  Pitch, fly ball, shallow center, Maddox comes on, he puts it away and the Braes are out in the seven.
• 1:35:22
  No runs won, hit no errors in one left. After six and a half, Philly's four, Atlanta nothing.
• 1:35:28
  We won it, we got it, after crisis finish, Peter.
• 1:35:35
  We've got a consistent hitter in our lineup, Chrysler Cordova, the most successful new personal-sized luxury car in the last five years.
• 1:35:42
  People just do appreciate luxury and you'll appreciate the deals you can get now during our spring selling season, where they make an umpire smile.
• 1:35:49
  See the corn over today at your Philly land Chrysler Plymouth dealer.
• 1:35:53
  We got it, now it's up to you.
• 1:35:56
  I work hard for my money. I couldn't be happy saving in a place that wasn't paying me top dollar.
• 1:36:01
  I don't want four and a half percent or even five percent interest. I want five and a quarter percent interest.
• 1:36:07
  And that's what I get with my Valley Plus account at Valley Federal Savings. And with my Valley Plus account, I get a whole lot more.
• 1:36:14
  For instance, I get a free monthly statement of all my transactions and I get a free prestige emergency cash card,
• 1:36:21
  which I can use at over 3,500 locations across America to cash a check or make a withdrawal of up to $200.
• 1:36:29
  I like the fact that Valley Federal gives me the highest interest allowed in regular savings and a whole lot of free extras.
• 1:36:35
  Yeah, you could say I'm happy with my Valley Plus account at Valley Federal,

  The Rockwell Commercial Duty 7 and a quarter inch circular saw now on sale at Peoples, Coal and Supply Company in Stocker Town.
• 1:37:25
  Hard, but boroughs got over to make the catch.
• 1:37:31
  Carlin is out. That's one down on the seventh and here is Gary Maddox.
• 1:37:39
  Maddox has 0 for 3, has fouled the first slide to center and grounded the third.
• 1:37:45
  Gary has a seven game hit streak on the line.
• 1:37:50
  Billy's trying to wind it up against the Braves and set the tempo for tomorrow night.
• 1:37:54
  Remember it's an 8-35 game against the Cincinnati Reds who have just tied their game with Montreal.
• 1:38:02
  That is 1-1 now at the end of three and a half innings priming against Twichel.
• 1:38:09
  First pitch to Maddox is ball one.
• 1:38:13
  Reds have won seven straight games.
• 1:38:15
  Here's a swing and a blind drive down the left field side.
• 1:38:18
  It is a fair ball, rolls into the corner.
• 1:38:20
  Gary Maddox goes into second base with a ground rule double as it bounds into the stands
• 1:38:25
  and Gary has batted safely an 8 straight.
• 1:38:34
  Billy's first hit off the third Atlanta pitcher, Buzz Capra and overall their ninth hit of the afternoon.
• 1:38:41
  They have out hit the Braves 9-2.
• 1:38:44
  That's all the 4-1 lead over Houston at the end of three and a half.
• 1:38:48
  Joaquin Andujar pitching against Craig Swan.
• 1:38:52
  Bruce Bowclair has hit a home run for the Mets.
• 1:38:55
  Pirates did not score in the first half inning.
• 1:38:58
  The first game of their double header at San Francisco.
• 1:39:01
  The Bucks have lost five straight.
• 1:39:03
  That's Jim Rooker pitching against Bob Necker.
• 1:39:06
  Nepper rather I should say.
• 1:39:07
  Bob Nepper a pair of left handers.
• 1:39:11
  Chicago will play at Los Angeles later.
• 1:39:13
  St. Louis at San Diego later.
• 1:39:16
  And the Capra stretches.
• 1:39:19
  Here's the pitch on the way to McBride and the pitches ball one.
• 1:39:24
  Fakis won for three in his filly's debut as a starter.
• 1:39:28
  He has stolen a base and scored a run.
• 1:39:32
  McBride batting 262 a left handed batter.
• 1:39:36
  Crouches at the plate.
• 1:39:37
  Here's the next pitch to him.
• 1:39:38
  Big swing in a miss.
• 1:39:44
  He's got a one strike on right fielder.
• 1:39:47
  Big McBride.
• 1:39:50
  Those leave the ball game for nothing.
• 1:39:56
  Here's Capra's pitch.
• 1:39:57
  It's a breaking ball but it stays high.
• 1:39:59
  Two balls in a strike.
• 1:40:00
  Denny Doyle has homered for the Red Sox in the fourth with two men on his first of the year.
• 1:40:08
  The Red Sox leave the Yankees at least four to one in the fourth inning.
• 1:40:15
  Here's the two one pitch to McBride.
• 1:40:17
  Off the handle of the bat fouled behind the Atlanta dugout.
• 1:40:22
  Two balls and two strikes.
• 1:40:24
  Look on McBride since he came to the big leagues is to try and jam him, pitch him in.
• 1:40:28
  And that's why he uses that little tiny bat because he feels that he can whip it quick enough
• 1:40:32
  and kind of inside out the ball to left field if they pitch him in there.
• 1:40:36
  And Capra's thrown a couple pitches in on him.
• 1:40:39
  Buzzy at the belt.
• 1:40:41
  Does a lot of head waving and here's the pitch.
• 1:40:43
  It's outside.
• 1:40:44
  So he runs a full count on Big McBride.
• 1:40:46
  There's one out on the inning with Maddox at second.
• 1:40:54
  Steve Cowden working on a shutout.
• 1:40:56
  He has 34 lifetime shutouts.
• 1:40:59
  Full count pitch on the way.
• 1:41:01
  Popped up foul territory behind third base coming over his roister.
• 1:41:05
  He has room and he takes it for the out.
• 1:41:08
  McBride fouls out the third day, third base second out of the inning.
• 1:41:13
  And so if the Phillies are to get him insurance run on the seventh, it's up to Mike Schmidt who's having a good day.
• 1:41:19
  Schmidt is two for three with a triple of stolen base and a run scored.
• 1:41:25
  And Schmidt with a hit.
• 1:41:27
  Lost an 11 game batting streak last night and starts another one here today.
• 1:41:34
  Mike batting 262 as averages really climbed lately.
• 1:41:40
  The first pitch to him is inside ball one.
• 1:41:44
  Schmidt's averages, I recall, had gone down into the 230s.
• 1:41:50
  Yeah, he's between the bat a lot better, Lele's.
• 1:41:53
  Much more confident.
• 1:41:54
  I think Schmidt likes to play on the road even more than at home.
• 1:41:57
  Pitch on the way to him is a strike on the outside corner.
• 1:42:00
  One ball and one strike.
• 1:42:01
  He feels a little more relaxed, I think, playing away from the best because the fans here have been pretty tough on him most of the year.
• 1:42:07
  And as soon as he does something wrong, it seems like people start to get on him right away and he'll press a little bit.
• 1:42:15
  Pitch is high at all.
• 1:42:18
  Darrell Thomas has homered for the Giants in the first with nobody on base, so they have gone ahead of the Pirates.
• 1:42:26
  The first end of a double header and the Phillies could pass the Pirates in the standings today.
• 1:42:32
  Tritie checks his swing, the pitch is low and outside.
• 1:42:36
  Three balls and a strike to Schmidt.
• 1:42:49
  The capra stretches. Pitch on the way to Mike, ground ball hard hit the foul outside a third base.
• 1:42:56
  A ball that's never got more than a couple of inches off the turf.
• 1:42:59
  Speaking of the turf, Chris, you and I were both on the field prior to the game on a hot sunny afternoon like this.
• 1:43:05
  That stuff really bakes, doesn't it?
• 1:43:07
  Yeah, it's a tough field to play on on a day like this.
• 1:43:10
  The heat coming off is probably about 20 degrees hotter than it is normally.
• 1:43:14
  And tough on the feet.
• 1:43:16
  You're going right through your shoes when you stand down there.
• 1:43:19
  There goes the runner of the pitches foul back.
• 1:43:22
  Tritie stays with a full count.
• 1:43:24
  Gary Maddox with a good jump toward third base, he will go back.
• 1:43:27
  So on a day like this, when the temperature is, I believe, in the low nineties, or at least in the forecast to be,
• 1:43:33
  it could be as high as 110 out there at ground level.
• 1:43:40
  Phillies on top on the scoreboard, four to nothing.
• 1:43:43
  The Atlanta Braves, they split a four game series in Atlanta last weekend.
• 1:43:47
  And then the Reds come in tomorrow night for three.
• 1:43:50
  Pitch to Schmidt, he walked, low on outside ball four.
• 1:43:54
  Phillies with runners at first and second and two down.
• 1:43:59
  Phillies, the second walk ended out by Atlanta pitching today.
• 1:44:03
  Of course, walks led to the downfall of the Braves in last night's ball game,
• 1:44:07
  as the Phillies received four of them in the ninth inning,
• 1:44:10
  and then got one big hit to tie up a ball game that they trailed by three runs going into the ninth.
• 1:44:16
  Here's the ball, pitched to him, bounces away from Carell, both runners will advance a base.
• 1:44:21
  Ball one to Lozinski, a wild pitch charge to Caprice, the third wild pitch to Atlanta pitching today.
• 1:44:28
  Hargan had two.
• 1:44:29
  It's interesting to see what Bristol does here, as you just mentioned,
• 1:44:32
  and the other night there was a base open when Greg came up and they walked him to get to Hebner,
• 1:44:37
  was an unusual move considering there was a right handed pitcher on the mound and Andy Messerschmitt,
• 1:44:42
  and Bristol got burned with that move and be interested to see if he does it again.
• 1:44:47
  Looks like they're going to, I believe. Yes, they are. They're going to walk the ball.
• 1:44:52
  And so the crowd lets out a boo.
• 1:44:55
  It's at the same time sound strategy, it's also a little unusual,
• 1:45:00
  but I think the thinking here is, for instance, even though they are both hot,
• 1:45:04
  Lozinski is the hotter of the two.
• 1:45:07
  Well, Bristol's made no bones about it. He really respects Greg Lozinski as an RBI man and a clutch hitter.
• 1:45:13
  And Hebner is the type of guy that can stop all this in a hurry by doing what he did the other night.
• 1:45:18
  If you get a base hit here, it would really be a good lift for Richie,
• 1:45:22
  because no hitter likes to see someone pitch around some guy to get to him,
• 1:45:26
  especially a competitor like Hebner.
• 1:45:30
  The cloud comes over the vet right now and darkens the sun just momentarily.
• 1:45:34
  We hope it's momentarily. Here's Hebner at the plate from the wind up to pitch to him.
• 1:45:38
  A drive into left field, way back as Matthews, and he grabs it for the out.
• 1:45:42
  Hebner hit it hard, but right to Matthews and left and the inning is over.
• 1:45:46
  In the seventh inning for the Phillies, no runs, one hit, bases left loaded.
• 1:45:51
  At the end of seventh, Phillips lead at four to nothing.
• 1:45:54
  We got it, we got it, and your stripes are thinner, see you there.
• 1:46:00
  Maybe you can't fit a whole baseball team in a four to our Volare wagon,
• 1:46:03
  but you can fit more inside than in any domestic wagon if size.
• 1:46:07
  That's one big reason it's the number one selling wagon build in America.
• 1:46:10
  Another is it's four to our convenience.
• 1:46:12
  And now it's the season to get a real home run deal.
• 1:46:15
  See you are also Philly Landpipes, more so than a dealer at Volare wagon now.
• 1:46:19
  We got it, now it's up to you. We got it.
• 1:46:23
  Popcorn or Willoughby fellow?
• 1:46:25
  Neither thanks, we were just wondering how a professional popper gets his voice up for the big game.
• 1:46:29
  I drink dailies juice.
• 1:46:30
  Dailies juice.
• 1:46:31
  What is it about dailies juice that seems to help your voice?
• 1:46:34
  Who knows, it's got vitamin C in it, I know that.
• 1:46:36
  It's made with natural fruit juices, that can't do you any harm, right?
• 1:46:38
  I wouldn't think so.
• 1:46:39
  It's got the nine different flavors, but I don't think that's got anything to do with it.
• 1:46:42
  Probably not. So folks, take it from a real pro.
• 1:46:44
  Come on, come on, get dandy.
• 1:46:47
  Come on, get dandy.
• 1:46:49
  Come up to the natural thing.
• 1:46:52

• 1:47:34
  Brad Gilbert at the plate for the Braves swings on Carlton's first pitch and grounds one to shortstop and bullet throws him out.
• 1:47:41
  One away in the eighth inning.
• 1:47:43
  Braves are making a change now. Junior Moore, who was a regular in their lineup last weekend in Atlanta, will be batting for Craig Robinson.
• 1:47:53
  Junior Moore, right-handed batter. He is hitting 277. Two home runs and 13 runs batted in.
• 1:48:02
  Carlton goes into the wind-up, and here's the pitch to Moore as he swings in a missed strike one.
• 1:48:21
  Moore earned his shot at the Braves this year by hitting 329 at Richmond last year.
• 1:48:26
  Pitch is low inside a ball.
• 1:48:29
  Gary Carter has homered for Montreal in the fourth with one on. That says 11th of the year.
• 1:48:35
  Curveball is inside.
• 1:48:39
  So that puts the Expos ahead 3-1 in the fourth inning, and Dawson has also hit 1-4 with one on. That makes it 5-1. Swing into this by Moore.
• 1:48:49
  So maybe the Reds' seven-game winning streak is headed for an end today.
• 1:48:58
  Wayne Cuchill, of course, who is 0-5, would be the recipient. Here's a pop-fly foul out of play.
• 1:49:04
  He is pitching against Woody Prime and a couple of ex-fills teamed up at Olympic Stadium this afternoon.
• 1:49:10
  Two balls and two strikes to count on Junior Moore, pinch batting in the eighth inning.
• 1:49:15
  And the Braves have Cito Gaston out as their next pinch hitter, low and inside, full count.
• 1:49:22
  It was a pinch hitter who got the first hit of the day off Carleton, time for Shorick in the sixth inning.
• 1:49:29
  Steve Wines and the pitch is fouled back. Count stays full on Junior Moore.
• 1:49:47
  One out, nobody on for the Braves. We're in the eighth inning, and the throws hold a 4-0 lead.
• 1:49:53
  Moore swings and grounds one to left field of Bay City, reach for a high pitch.
• 1:49:57
  Tommy Hawke at the left field for a single. Let's pause for station identification. This is the Phillies' baseball network.
• 1:50:03
  Horts and Hughes all day every day on W-E-F-T Radio 14 Easton, CBS in the Lehigh Valley.
• 1:50:18
  Here's right-handed batting Cito Gaston as a pinch hitter.
• 1:50:24
  Cito is hitting at 2-38. First pitch to him is in for a strike.
• 1:50:29
  Gaston with one home run and six runs batted in. As a pinch hitter, he is 4-9.
• 1:50:36
  Swings and misses at the curveball. No balls and two strikes on Cito.
• 1:50:42
  We have a paid crowd here at the vet today of 40,126.
• 1:50:47
  That means this three-game series with the Braves drew over 109,000 fans.
• 1:50:52
  Here's a fly ball, well hit the center field, Maddox racing back, still going, still going.
• 1:50:57
  He can't get it. It bounds up against the wall. Gary rolls over. I don't think he's hurt.
• 1:51:02
  Here comes a runner for the plate. There will be no throw and the Braves have their first run of the ball game.
• 1:51:07
  That'll be a double for Cito Gaston. Junior Moore scores and it's 4-1.
• 1:51:15
  Let's try for that ball. That ball was really hit off the bat of Gaston and Gary almost caught it.
• 1:51:21
  He was getting a little close to the wall and he reached up at the last second and just went over his glob and he
• 1:51:26
  slammed into that wall a little hard and you always hold your breath when any outfielder hits the wall that hard
• 1:51:31
  but he's okay and the Braves get on the scoreboard.
• 1:51:34
  The wall of course has a lot of give to it. It is a plywood fronting with a free moving support behind it.
• 1:51:42
  You could see it give that time when Gary slammed against it.
• 1:51:46
  Back to the top of the Braves line up on Barry Bonnelle.
• 1:51:49
  One down with a runner at second base. He fouls off the first pitch of strike.
• 1:51:52
  Bonnelle is over three has fired the center, struck out and lined the center.
• 1:51:57
  Goes now with a three run lead. 4-1. Braves have four hits off Carlin.
• 1:52:05
  Pitch on the way to Bonnelle. Low outside. One ball and one strike.
• 1:52:18
  Carlin stretches. Here's his pitch. A called strike on the outside corner.
• 1:52:24
  Phillies are almost at the 800,000 mark and paid attendance for the year and they will top that easily tomorrow night.
• 1:52:31
  The one-two pitch to Bonnelle swings at a pitch in the dirt. It gets away from McCarver.
• 1:52:36
  He grabs it and throws down to first base to get the out.
• 1:52:41
  Another good breaking ball. The pitch has been so good to Carlson today and it's another check swing because the ball is coming in
• 1:52:47
  on the header and tried to check a swing because it was a ball but he couldn't and he records another strikeout on that slider.
• 1:52:54
  Strikeout number seven for Lafay. Here's Jerry Reister. Reister is over three. Two outs in the inning.
• 1:53:00
  Runner at second. Pitch inside and low ball one. The runner is Cito Gaston.
• 1:53:06
  A pinch hitter who doubled to knock in the only run for the Braves today. Carlson at the belt.
• 1:53:12
  Here's the one-nothing pitch. Strike call. Fool him with the breaking ball.
• 1:53:16
  Reister started to offer and then held up. One ball and one strike.
• 1:53:22
  Next inning the Braves may move Reister to shortstop and keep more in to play at third.
• 1:53:27
  Here's the pitch. Ground ball towards shortstop. Bolo grabs it. Here is his throw. It is in time and the inning is over.
• 1:53:34
  Braves in the eighth inning get their first run of the game on two hits and one man left on base at the end of seven and a half goes on top four to one.

  That's 3333 Freemansburg Avenue across the Stubborn District.
• 1:55:14
  Coming on with their fourth picture of the ballgame, it'll be right-hander Dave Chaper Campbell.
• 1:55:18
  Campbell has an 0 and 2 record, a 3.91 earn run average, has saved one ballgame,
• 1:55:23
  making his 18th appearance this afternoon. He has already peered twice against the Phillies.
• 1:55:28
  Braves are keeping Junior Moore in the ballgame. He was a pinch hitter last inning.
• 1:55:32
  He will play at third base and Jerry Reister will move over and play at shortstop.
• 1:55:36
  Then Macarver, the first to face Dave Chaper Campbell.
• 1:55:43
  Macarver, Bola and Seismore at about in the Phillies 8-pinning.
• 1:55:48
  Carl Leeney only three more outs to win his 100th game as a Phillies.
• 1:55:53
  Campbell pitches inside ball one. Timmy is one for three today, single and scored in the second inning,
• 1:55:58
  as Seims struck out and fly to center field. Phillies lead the game 4-1.
• 1:56:03
  Pitch to Timmy is over for a strike right at the knees.
• 1:56:07
  One ball, one strike to Macarver.
• 1:56:10
  Timmy has lifted his average over the 300 mark again. He's right now at 305.
• 1:56:16
  Outside ball two.
• 1:56:21
  Those home runs by the Expos have knocked Woody Framon out of that ballgame.
• 1:56:25
  Tom Hume is pitching for Sincey in the fourth.
• 1:56:29
  2-1 pitch to Timmy, pop up.
• 1:56:32
  Out towards second base, Gilbreth moving toward the bag, staring up at that high sky, grabs it for the out.
• 1:56:38
  Macarver out on a very high pop up to second base. That's one out of the eighth inning.
• 1:56:45
  With that, Larry has a fun single in this game as part of a one-for-three afternoon.
• 1:56:50
  Pitching for the red series beginning tomorrow, Jim Codd and Fred Norman for game one at 8.35 tomorrow night.
• 1:57:01
  Pitch to Boa blocks the bonnets to called strike.
• 1:57:04
  Tuesday night at 7.35, Randy Lurch against rookie Paul Muskell making his first major league appearance.
• 1:57:11
  Wednesday night, Christensen against Pillingham. Here's a bonnet towards second base coming hard as Gilbreth.
• 1:57:16
  He feels he throws. Safe!
• 1:57:19
  Boa gets his second butt hit in the ball game.
• 1:57:23
  There's a lot of people and I'm one of them that really like to see Larry Bolla punt the ball.
• 1:57:27
  He can get so many base hits like that and whenever he gets in a slump it seems like he won't do it.
• 1:57:32
  And the last couple of games he's just putting the ball on the ground like that and he'll get some base hits.
• 1:57:36
  Because the second baseman just has to make a perfect play on that and he did make a perfect play and Boa was still able to beat it out.
• 1:57:43
  Last night, Sizemore, who is at the plate now, had a pair of blunt hits for the Phillies.
• 1:57:47
  Today, Sizemore is 0-for-2 with a walk. He was also out trying to steal.
• 1:57:53
  Pitch on the way to Sizemore, a strike right at the knees.
• 1:57:57
  One out of the inning, Boa at first and the Phillies are on top of this game 4-to-1.
• 1:58:04
  Here's a throw to first base. Campbell is too late to get Boa.
• 1:58:08
  After the Cincinnati series starting tomorrow night, the Phillies will then have the next 25 consecutive games against teams in the Eastern Division.
• 1:58:24
  Campbell stretches. Here's the pitch to Sizemore.
• 1:58:27
  It's a ground ball fielded by the shortstop Reuster to second for one. Back to first to double play. Sizemore is grounded into two of them today and the inning is over.
• 1:58:35
  In the eighth of the Phillies, no runs, one hit and nobody left.
• 1:58:38
  At the end of eight, Phil's waited 4-to-1 now. Time for a tasty break.
• 1:58:41
  Next time the opposing side strikes out, why not strike up a little celebration right at home?
• 1:58:47
  With a true-true taste of a tempting tasty cake pie, pie apiece, a cherry or a blueberry tasty cake pie,
• 1:58:54
  they all come by their good name honestly because tasty cake pies are fresh baked, not fried, and loaded with ripe, juicy fruit.
• 1:59:01
  Tasty cake pie. They're a hip with a home crowd any day.
• 1:59:05
  Tasty cake is the world's best pie.
• 1:59:07
  The heart of this big, tough, coming-of-one.
• 1:59:10
  I'm Ernest Rotano, for Hill to Men.
• 1:59:13
  Now, last year, I fell in love with the Phillies.
• 1:59:18
  All year, they give me so many moments of joy. When I left, I'm saying, I want to be next to them.
• 1:59:24
  Home, space, close, I said.
• 1:59:26
  So they won't tell me a piece of lead in a parking lot to build my house.
• 1:59:31
  I bought their house for them. So I'm next to the stadium.
• 1:59:34
  So they can drink my wine, they can eat my food, and we can get together after the game.
• 1:59:39
  Will you please join us and share a glass of wine?
• 1:59:42
  Well, are you and your group finding it harder and harder to find something exciting to do?
• 1:59:50
  And how about a group outing here at the Phillies?
• 1:59:53
  A baseball game at beautiful Veterans Stadium is a tremendous way to spend a warm summer night.
• 1:59:57
  So why not pick out a date and get in touch with the Phillies' group sales experts and let them do the rest?
• 2:00:02
  Just call 803-5000. You'll be all set for a memorable night at Veterans Stadium.
• 2:00:08
  As you and your group watch these exciting 1977 Phillies play baseball.
• 2:00:13
  Things are starting to move for the Phillies right now as some of the other Eastern Division competition begins to falter just a bit.
• 2:00:19
  Even the extremely hot Chicago Cubs have lost two out of three.
• 2:00:23
  Here's Willie Montanese to lead off the ninth, fouls the curveball atop the Phillies' dugout of strike.
• 2:00:28
  Pictures are up at Dodger Stadium now. Rick Ruschell will go for the Cubs. He is nine and two.
• 2:00:34
  And Don Sutton, seven and two will go for the Dodgers.
• 2:00:38
  The one strike pitched to Willie. A ball ripped into left center field.
• 2:00:42
  It'll go for a hit and bounce beyond Luzinski and Maddox to the wall.
• 2:00:45
  Willie Montanese to second base will get there standing up with a double.
• 2:00:49
  Willie's second double of the ball game. Won the right center and this one to left center.
• 2:00:54
  He can hit. Willie Montanese is just a real good big-leg hitter.
• 2:00:58
  He saw it coming when he was here the way he started to hit the ball the opposite way and he hit three balls right on the nose to left center field today.
• 2:01:05
  He has a couple of doubles out of it.
• 2:01:10
  That brings action to the Phillies bullpen. Ron Reed getting up and starts to throw.
• 2:01:15
  Here's Jeff Burrowse is 0-3 today. Pitch to Jeff, high ball one.
• 2:01:21
  Carlton retired the first 14 consecutive batters in this game. A two-out walk in the fifth inning.
• 2:01:28
  The Vic Carell snapped the perfect game. Here is a line drive base hit the center field.
• 2:01:34
  Montanese is being waved around. The throw will not come to the plate.
• 2:01:38
  It'll be cut off and the Braves have their second run of the ball game until he's laid it four to two.
• 2:01:43
  The 56th run batted in this year for Jeff Burrowse.
• 2:01:49
  It's a real hot day as we've been staying all along here and Carlton, even though he hasn't thrown a lot of pitches,
• 2:01:55
  you just have to watch somebody pitching this long in this kind of heat that there is today.
• 2:01:59
  I'm sure Danny is going to keep a close eye on him now.
• 2:02:02
  It looks like Tug McGraw is now joined Reed out there in the Phillies bullpen.
• 2:02:07
  Gary Matthews comes to the plate. He is 0-3. Matthews takes ball one.
• 2:02:14
  Braves have six hits and two runs off Carlton. Now Mike Schmidt is trotting in from third base.
• 2:02:20
  This is a slow down tactic on the part of the Phillies to give those pitchers a chance to throw a little bit.
• 2:02:26
  Schmidt didn't stay long. He's headed back to third base.
• 2:02:29
  Those laid it four to two.
• 2:02:32
  Carlton stretches. Here's the curved ball. It's over for a strike.
• 2:02:36
  After the game, remember to stay tuned for the Tasty Cake Wrap-Up Show.
• 2:02:39
  We'll replay the highlights from this one. We'll talk with a ball player and we'll give you all the out-of-town scores.
• 2:02:44
  Here's the curved ball. Ground is foul outside of third.
• 2:02:48
  A ball and two strikes on Gary Matthews.
• 2:03:04
  Next pitch on the way and it's a fastball high. Now Valentine is homered for Montreal in the fourth with two on.
• 2:03:15
  It's got to be the fifth inning but at any rate that's the third home run of the game.
• 2:03:19
  Here's one fouled off and out of play by Matthews.
• 2:03:22
  I don't know if the fourth inning hasn't been reported yet. It might still be the fourth.
• 2:03:27
  At any rate, that'd be seven runs within the inning for Montreal and they would leave that game at least eight to one.
• 2:03:34
  Ground ball foul wide of third base.
• 2:03:39
  And Gary Matthews broke his bat.
• 2:03:44
  Coming back to the dugout for new lumber.
• 2:03:47
  Bear down on that scoreboard will you Chris? We've got the Tasty Cake Wrap-Up Show just around the corner.
• 2:03:53
  Well if I don't mess it up Whitey will so.
• 2:03:59
  What a thing to say about a famous dad on Father's Day. Yeah he's famous alright.
• 2:04:06
  Whitey father of five. Six. Six right. Six. Bigger pardon yeah.
• 2:04:12
  Two balls and two strikes to count on Matthews.
• 2:04:17
  Pitch to him on the outside corner tried to check his swing. I don't know whether he did or not but it's a strikeout.
• 2:04:24
  Matthews is out striking out for the second time in the ball game.
• 2:04:28
  Carlton's eighth strikeout and more importantly the first of the ninth inning.
• 2:04:33
  Burrows at first with one down and here is Vic Carell.
• 2:04:38
  Carell the first man to reach base for Atlanta today did it by walking on a three to pitch in the fifth inning after Carlton had retired the first 14 batters.
• 2:04:46
  Pitch is high ball one.
• 2:04:50
  Officially Carell is 0 for two. Grounded one to the mound and fly it out to center field.
• 2:04:55
  Philly's leading it by two or in the ninth inning.
• 2:04:59
  Stretch in the pitch.
• 2:05:09
  Pop foul out of play behind the plate. Philly's trying to win their 34th ball game of the year.
• 2:05:17
  That was a seven run inning for Montreal in the fourth. Seven runs are in.
• 2:05:22
  They lead Cincinnati eight to one at the end of four.
• 2:05:30
  Pitch on the way to Carell breaking ball called strike.
• 2:05:45
  From the action of the crowd right now in that foul ball I think our heroes over in television may have messed one up.
• 2:05:51
  Or made a good play but you'd rather think they messed it up.
• 2:05:55
  One to pitch high. Two and two.
• 2:06:02
  Philly's with four runs and ten hits. The Braves two runs and six hits.
• 2:06:11
  You can't say that the ninth inning of recent Philly's games have not been exciting.
• 2:06:16
  Swing and a miss like Carell. He strikes out.
• 2:06:19
  Carell gets number nine. Another great breaking ball that he threw there to Carell.
• 2:06:25
  The pitch starts over the middle of the plate and the hitter starts to swing at it and by the time he's finished it's way in on him.
• 2:06:30
  And it's some possible pitch to hit. If you hit it you're going to break your bat or pull its ball and that has really been left.
• 2:06:36
  He's out today.
• 2:06:37
  There is Rod Gilbrith two down in the ninth inning.
• 2:06:41
  The pitch to Gilbrith low in inside ball one.
• 2:06:44
  Carlton strikeout high of the year is eleven. Again San Diego May 15th.
• 2:06:49
  He beat Randy Jones that day.
• 2:06:52
  Calden won that game five to two.
• 2:06:55
  Calden tying for his seventh complete game of the year.
• 2:07:00
  Pitch on the way. Strike call.
• 2:07:05
  One ball and one strike on Rod Gilbrith.
• 2:07:08
  Braves have a one in the inning. There are two outs to runner on.
• 2:07:11
  Pitch to Gilbrith breaking ball. Ground ball toward Bola.
• 2:07:14
  Plays over to Pysboar. The ball game is over.
• 2:07:18
  A fourth shot on Burroughs at second base and the game is over for the Braves in the ninth.
• 2:07:23
  One run on two hits.
• 2:07:25
  One man left on base.
