• 2:06
  High pop fly.
• 2:08
  Shot center Campanera down with the sunglasses.
• 2:11
  Under the ball, makes the cut.
• 2:13
  He really had a battle of right sun.
• 2:16
  McCall a pop to Campanera.
• 2:19
  That's one out.
• 2:20
  And it brings up Cesar Gaperes.
• 2:24
  D-U-I-T-E double R-E-Z.
• 2:27
  Gaperes.
• 2:28
  the shot stop hitting 224.
• 2:38
  Danny Walton is in another homer for the Brewers.
• 2:41
  Here's the pitch on the way and it's a bounce ball and another strike ball.
• 2:50
  One strike, no balls. One out, nobody on.
• 2:54
  Not a single given.
• 2:58
  Right-handed batter weight.
• 3:00
  Chuck Dobson's delivery.
• 3:02
  Bouncing ball should be easy for Green. Big hop, he's got it.
• 3:05
  He throws the first in.
• 3:07
  Two up to the mound.
• 3:11
  the final game of the series here tomorrow afternoon, a 1-30 ballgame.
• 3:18
  A wonderful crowd out here.
• 3:20
  In excess of 45,000.
• 3:27
  There are a lot of empty seats around which would indicate there's still a lot of fans outside because it's already soon out.
• 3:33
  Two men are out here.
• 3:35
  Down, K-line. Right-handed batter to the pitch.
• 3:38
  Slider low and outside.
• 3:40
  One ball, no strikes.
• 3:50
  Two men are gone.
• 3:52
  Now the pitch, strong and popped up on the infield.
• 3:55
  Mincher under the ball.
• 3:57
  In foul territory. Mincher's the cut.
• 3:59
  Chuck Dobson breezes through the first.
• 4:03
  One, two, three, nothing to cross.
• 4:06
  We move now to the bottom half of the first inning. No score in the ballgame.
• 4:12
  While there's not too much Major League Baseball action today, most of it will be tonight in the American League.
• 4:17
  There are three-night games and in the National League, five-night games.
• 4:20
  There's one game going on in the National League. the Giants are ahead of the Chicago Cubs 4-2.
• 4:25
  They're playing at about the eighth inning there.
• 4:27
  Willie McCovey has hit a big homer today.
• 4:30
  His 18th and they were too long when he hit it.
• 4:32
  That's Mary against Hand when I was starting a 2-7 game winner.
• 4:35
  So the Giants are leading 4-2 over the Cubs in the about seventh-grade inning.
• 4:40
  Tonight San Diego is at St. Louis at Coombs against Carls in Los Angeles at Pittsburgh.
• 4:45
  Sutton against Ellis. New York at Cincinnati tonight.
• 4:48
  Sadecki, who is 4-0, will go against Jim Merritt, who's 10-3.
• 4:52
  Two pretty good left-handers going in that one. New York at Cincinnati tonight.
• 4:56
  Montreal at Atlanta, Stoneman against Jim Nash. Nash has record seven wins in one loss.
• 5:00
  the pitch for Atlanta, Philadelphia will be at Houston tonight.
• 5:03
  In the American League this afternoon, the Yankees are ahead of the White Sox in the fifth inning, 3-1.
• 5:08
  Harlan against Cumberland. Kansas City at Boston has already been rained out.
• 5:12
  Tonight, Minnesota at Washington. Baltimore is at Milwaukee this afternoon.
• 5:16
  That was listed as a night game and was changed.
• 5:18
  Milwaukee in that game is leading by a score of 6-4 in the eighth inning.
• 5:23
  Milwaukee knocked seven-game winner Jim Palmer out of there.
• 5:26
  Heartened and relieved. Embraerbender started for Milwaukee.
• 5:28
  Sanders is relieved. And I think that's Ken Sanders, who used to be with the A's.
• 5:32
  Walton's had a homer for Milwaukee.
• 5:34
  Tonight, Cleveland at California. Dean Chen with a 1-5 record against Rudy May, 3-3.
• 5:40
  So, with not too much action going on to the big leagues today,
• 5:42
  we'll keep you posted on the three games that are underway.
• 5:45
  Campy Campanera's stepping on the batter's box.
• 5:48
  Father's ballpark is really alive today.
• 5:52
  Beautiful sight to behold.
• 5:55
  the largest crowd of the year. Campy Campanera's hitting 2-29.
• 6:02
  He started a four-run rally that won the ballgame,
• 6:05
  beating out an infield hit out to score off the sixth inning.
• 6:09
  Right hand batter waiting. Joe Necroll looks down, has his sign, the pitch is on the way.
• 6:18
  And it's a fastball high.
• 6:26
  One ball, no strikes.
• 6:29
  Joe Necroll, a hard-throwing right-hander, his older brother,
• 6:34
  Phil, is with the Braves. Here's the pitch. Fastball in there, strike off.
• 6:41
  Joe Necroll is with the Cubs.
• 6:45
  And that was San Diego last year.
• 6:50
  One ball, one strike.
• 6:53
  Necroll gets set, the pitcher on the way here to curve a beauty, strike two, call.
• 7:00
  Joe Necroll from Martins Ferry, Ohio.
• 7:04
  It'll be 26th of November. Last year he won eight loss, 18.
• 7:09
  the year before for the Cubs he won 14 and lost 10.
• 7:13
  Two strikes and a ball. His brother Phil is a knuckleball pitcher.
• 7:16
  Joe is a fastball and slider pitcher.
• 7:19
  Here's a curveball foul. Two strikes and a ball.
• 7:24
  Nobody on, nobody out, bottom half of the first inning.
• 7:29
  This big crowd is eager, hungry for a chance to explode here.
• 7:36
  the A's trying for their fourth in a row.
• 7:40
  For the first time this year, they're four games above 500.
• 7:43
  the pitch. There's a line drive and a right-hander northward going over, over, over, makes the gap.
• 7:48
  Pimp and error. Wind hard to Jim Northrow.
• 7:54
  That's one out. Here's Salif Malou, hitting.338.
• 7:58
  Something out of four last night.
• 8:01
  Four homers, 27 on the left side of the field.
• 8:06
  A very enthusiastic crowd here today.
• 8:11
  Ah, you can't beat fun at the old ballpark.
• 8:15
  Especially in a setting like this.
• 8:19
  Joe Necron gets ready to pitch to Alou.
• 8:22
  Curveball and there's a strike call.
• 8:26
  Salif is facing Joe Necron for the first time initially, but he faced him many times internationally.
• 8:34
  One strike, no balls, a fifth.
• 8:37
  Long and top straight up, the catcher Bill Brand.
• 8:40
  Shading his eyes in the sun and makes the gap.
• 8:43
  Two up, two down. Here's Reggie Jackson.
• 8:46
  What have I got?
• 8:49
  Most of the reception he'll get.
• 8:54
  Reggie starting in the game now for the first time in about a week.
• 9:01
  Got a fine hand from the crowd as he steps up.
• 9:06
  Two men off, nobody on. Reggie with a great shot.
• 9:10
  Here's a fifth.
• 9:13
  I think it's just high and got away from freehand.
• 9:18
  One ball, no strikes.
• 9:21
  Let's see now, the play down fire, Merrill Anthony.
• 9:24
  I think Mayo Smith thinks that it tipped the bat. He's coming out.
• 9:28
  Now he's going to talk to Bill Freehand.
• 9:31
  Just tipped his glove and not his bat.
• 9:34
  One ball, no strikes.
• 9:36
  Merrill was showing how that ball took off.
• 9:40
  It hit right up over the shoulder of Freehand and hit right in the mask.
• 9:45
  All right, Reggie waiting now. One ball, no strikes.
• 9:48
  Left hand hitter, big number nine on the box with his uniform.
• 9:52
  Oh, this crowd was really exploding. He got a hold of one.
• 9:56
  Here's the fifth.
• 9:58
  High curve ball outside.
• 10:00
  Two balls, no strikes.
• 10:02
  Two men are gone.
• 10:04
  Two men are gone. Reggie Jackson, 24-year-old outfield.
• 10:10
  Hits out of a wide straddle, holds the bat at the end.
• 10:13
  Here's the fifth.
• 10:15
  Ground ball to the second baseman. Up with it.
• 10:17
  Now he's kicking the throw. Still getting it.
• 10:21
  Six McCallops, the ball was hit sharply, went to his left.
• 10:24
  Knocked the ball down, recovered and threw him up.
• 10:27
  So each team has been retired in order.
• 10:30
  Nothing across at the end of one full inning. Destroyed nothing, the A's nothing.
• 10:35
  Another game victory. These five and five.
• 10:37
  He's pitched two shutouts, shut out the Angels, and he shut out the Angels.
• 10:42
  Norm Cash hitting 242, five homers and 18 runs batted in, one out of three last night.
• 10:48
  Leaves it off against Chuck Dopp.
• 10:50
  the outfield deep and a shade towards right.
• 10:55
  How did the left field stand, the pounding of those bats in unison?
• 11:05
  Sounds like a jailbreak.
• 11:08
  There's a wind up the pitch, and it's a fastball low.
• 11:12
  One ball, no strikes. Cash leading it off here in the second inning.
• 11:19
  On the side. the delivery, here it is.
• 11:23
  Long and a high pop foul over here in the stands.
• 11:25
  Fernandez chasing it, he may have a play, and he does nicely against the screen.
• 11:31
  Cash fouls to Fernandez.
• 11:34
  That's one away and it brings up Willie Horton.
• 11:37
  Horton hitting 313.
• 11:39
  Six homers, 39 runs batted in.
• 11:42
  the run he drove in last night was the 500th of his America League career.
• 11:47
  Willie Horton.
• 11:51
  Powerfully built.
• 11:53
  Boy, he's so reminiscent of Roy Campanella when he stands at the plate.
• 12:01
  190 pounder, here's the pitch by Dobson and it's high.
• 12:05
  One ball, no strikes.
• 12:07
  One man gone.
• 12:09
  Ball game in the second inning.
• 12:11
  Nothing and nothing.
• 12:14
  Willie Horton, who hit 262 last year,
• 12:19
  is batting 313 this season.
• 12:21
  Now the pitch by Dobson.
• 12:23
  One more, fly ball, right field, Reggie Jackson on the run.
• 12:26
  On the run he's there now.
• 12:27
  He'll make the catch in the end.
• 12:30
  Clarkson, right is one.
• 12:32
  Reggie Jackson in right field.
• 12:34
  That's two gone and brings up Jim Northrup.
• 12:37
  Five in a row, retired by Chuck Dobson.
• 12:40
  Northrup hitting 284.
• 12:44
  Seven homers, 27 runs batted in.
• 12:47
  Grover Riesinger coaching at third base.
• 12:50
  Wally Moses at first base.
• 12:53
  Here's the windup, the pitch to Northrup.
• 12:56
  It's low and inside, ball one.
• 12:59
  Looking ahead to the eighth second will be Fando, Minscher and Fernandez.
• 13:04
  One ball, no strikes.
• 13:07
  Now the windup, the pitch, here it is.
• 13:10
  And it's outside.
• 13:12
  Ball two.
• 13:21
  Two balls, no strikes.
• 13:24
  Two went out, nobody on the pitch.
• 13:26
  He had a cut and he missed it.
• 13:28
  Boy, he was really going for the downs on that one.
• 13:32
  A colorful crowd here.
• 13:34
  Beautiful coliseum.
• 13:37
  Perfect day for baseball.
• 13:41
  You know, Phil Wrigley might have something at all at that.
• 13:44
  Baseball is meant to be played in the daytime.
• 13:46
  Unfortunately, economics don't make that possible everywhere.
• 13:55
  So many people have to work during the day to be depriving them of a chance to see baseball.
• 14:00
  Here's the pitch, one ground ball, hit it for right base in.
• 14:05
  Jim Northrup becomes the first base runner with a ground single in the right.
• 14:09
  Here's Bill Freehand to catch it, hitting 229.
• 14:14
  Nate Homer's 24 runs batted in.
• 14:24
  Freehand will be 29 in November, went to the University of Michigan.
• 14:29
  Biggest year in the home run to Brown was in 68 when he hit 25.
• 14:34
  Right-handed batter.
• 14:35
  So far this year he's hit 8, straddles the plate, waiting.
• 14:40
  Now to stretch the pitch on the way.
• 14:43
  Dobson's delivery, here it is.
• 14:45
  Curve in there, a beautiful strike off.
• 14:49
  One strike, no ball.
• 14:51
  Elliott Maddox, the third baseman, will be next.
• 14:56
  One strike, no balls.
• 14:58
  Two men are out.
• 15:00
  Bill Freehand waiting.
• 15:02
  Now the pitch.
• 15:03
  Here it is.
• 15:05
  He foul-tipped on a half swing.
• 15:07
  He tried to stop.
• 15:08
  the ball tipped the end of the bat.
• 15:11
  So it's two strikes and nothing.
• 15:13
  Two men are gone.
• 15:16
  Bill Freehand at the plate.
• 15:19
  A big crowd on hand here.
• 15:27
  Now to signal.
• 15:30
  A leadoff first base by Northrup.
• 15:33
  Here's the pitch.
• 15:34
  And it's outside.
• 15:38
  Sounds like one of those prison movies.
• 15:41
  Where you have inmates protesting, you know.
• 15:48
  That's the way there's rhythmic pounding of the bats out in the
• 15:50
  let field stands.
• 15:53
  Two strikes and a ball.
• 15:57
  Now the pitch.
• 15:58
  Here it is.
• 16:00
  Just barely missed the strike zone with a slider.
• 16:03
  Thompson thought it was in there.
• 16:05
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 16:08
  the A's trying for their fourth in a row.
• 16:11
  For the first time this season, they're four games above the 500 mark.
• 16:16
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 16:19
  Right hand batter waiting.
• 16:21
  the delivery now.
• 16:22
  Hey, ho, he's got him picked off.
• 16:24
  Now he throws down to Green running him back towards first base.
• 16:28
  Two centers running him the other way.
• 16:30
  And Campanella's backing off.
• 16:33
  Play goes to Batsy, to Green, to Minter, to Campanella.
• 16:40
  One, three, one, four, three, six.
• 16:45
  If you're scoring.
• 16:46
  No runs, one hit, no errors, nobody left.
• 16:49
  They move into the bottom half of the second inning, no score.
• 16:54
  June 21st is the day father's flair.
• 16:57
  Huh?
• 16:58
  It's Father's Day.
• 16:59
  And the big gift this year is Mr. Levi's stay-press slacks with the gentleman's flair.
• 17:05
  You're kidding.
• 17:06
  Levi's for us dad types with a flair?
• 17:09
  Sure, why not?
• 17:10
  More dads are joining the fashion scene every day.
• 17:13
  the same Mr. Levi's styling, fuller cut for extra comfort.
• 17:17
  Get on Harry and of course besides the new flair style, there's a great selection for dads.
• 17:22
  Traditional belt loop models, continental waistbands, and a rousing range of fabrics, patterns, and colors.
• 17:29
  And stay-press.
• 17:31
  Indeed, they never need ironing.
• 17:33
  Stay fresh and neat all day, even through double headers.
• 17:37
  Now here's the perfect dad to gift for the man who has everything, gals,
• 17:41
  because he never has enough Mr. Levi's stay-press slacks.
• 17:45
  So take a tip, get him two fairs at your favorite men's store.
• 17:53
  Bottom half of the second inning, Sal Bando, Don Mincher, and Frank Fernandez will be coming up.
• 18:00
  Ball game of the second inning.
• 18:04
  Nothing and nothing.
• 18:07
  Baltimore trailing at Milwaukee 6-4 on the bottom of the eighth.
• 18:13
  Yankees out in front of the White Sox, 3-1.
• 18:16
  Those Yankees could move to within four and a half games.
• 18:23
  Sal Bando hitting 267, facing Joe Nicrow.
• 18:29
  Bando one out of three last night.
• 18:32
  Out of time, Joe Nicrow ready.
• 18:34
  the right-hander's pitch is on the way.
• 18:37
  It's a fastball over the wall, ball one.
• 18:39
  One ball, no strike.
• 18:41
  Nobody on, nobody out. Ball game of the second inning.
• 18:46
  Now the signal, Jimmins.
• 18:48
  the delivery, here it is.
• 18:50
  There's a line drive off the pitcher's ruck.
• 18:53
  Through, in the charge center.
• 18:56
  Let's see, that will probably be a base hit.
• 19:04
  And there on McAuliffe.
• 19:06
  A hot shot deflected by Nicrow to McAuliffe in a wind-blow of his leg.
• 19:15
  That will bring up Don Mincher.
• 19:20
  Mincher hitting 256 on one out of four last night.
• 19:26
  He's had 12 homers this season, driven in 31 runs.
• 19:32
  Left-hand batter, digging in.
• 19:34
  Joe Nicrow gets that.
• 19:37
  the stretch.
• 19:39
  the pitch on the way.
• 19:40
  Into the dirt, good stop by Bill Brand.
• 19:43
  Kept that ball from going to the screen.
• 19:46
  Maddox is playing third base.
• 19:49
  Guterres in charge.
• 19:50
  McAuliffe in second.
• 19:52
  Cash in first.
• 19:56
  Don Mincher digging in.
• 19:58
  Joe Nicrow ready.
• 20:00
  At the belt, the fifth.
• 20:02
  Here it is.
• 20:04
  Last ball is low.
• 20:05
  Ball two.
• 20:11
  A lot of youngsters on the outside looking in and sitting on top of the outside wall.
• 20:18
  They're not getting a bat that way, but they're at least seeing the ball game.
• 20:21
  the stretch, the pitch.
• 20:23
  Strike over the outside corner of the knee.
• 20:25
  Breeze is blowing towards left field.
• 20:28
  Two or three of those guys will fall in this ballpark before it's all over.
• 20:35
  If they do, those youngsters who have bats will hold on tightly.
• 20:38
  Here's the pitch bouncing ball.
• 20:40
  Two cash, he's going to throw the second one out.
• 20:43
  Back over the first.
• 20:44
  Hey, no double flip.
• 20:47
  Boy, they're arguing down there.
• 20:49
  Here comes Mayo Smith after arguing with Red Flattery.
• 20:53
  They thought they had doubled up Mincher.
• 20:56
  A force out from Cash to Gutteran.
• 21:02
  Mincher barely beating the throw at first base.
• 21:05
  Here's Frank Fernandez hitting 271.
• 21:09
  Five homers 12 runs about at it.
• 21:12
  Mayo Smith protesting vehemently and now walks off the field.
• 21:20
  Mayo stopped smoking a few months ago.
• 21:23
  He has most people who stop and gain a little weight.
• 21:31
  But on him it looks good.
• 21:34
  One on, second inning.
• 21:37
  Bobby Hoffman coaching third.
• 21:39
  Charlie Law at first.
• 21:41
  the Breeze now is shifted, blowing towards right field.
• 21:44
  the stretch, the pitch to Fernandez.
• 21:48
  Here it is.
• 21:49
  Swung at a fastball and he missed it strike wise.
• 21:52
  One strike and over.
• 21:53
  Al Kailon playing a wide right field.
• 21:59
  As Northrop is shifted over towards left.
• 22:04
  One strike and over.
• 22:06
  Northrop being the center fielder.
• 22:08
  Now the pitch on the way.
• 22:15
  A bouncing ball on a third base line.
• 22:17
  It may be a tough play.
• 22:18
  Here's Maddox.
• 22:19
  Oh wow.
• 22:20
  He's a right field corner.
• 22:21
  Here's a run around the third.
• 22:23
  He's in the crowd to start.
• 22:25
  Here we come.
• 22:26
  Here's a throw to a play.
• 22:27
  Flo Payne.
• 22:28
  the A's are leading one to nothing.
• 22:41
  That's Fernandez lined up a third base on the play.
• 22:51
  How are they going to roll that one?
• 22:52
  They call it an air all the way.
• 22:58
  Why Maddox in a swinging front had a charge in,
• 23:01
  picked the ball up on the run and put underhand it.
• 23:05
  He threw the ball wildly past Cash.
• 23:08
  And Lynch is scored all the way from first base.
• 23:12
  Fernandez stopping a third.
• 23:17
  One to nothing in favor of the A's.
• 23:20
  Here now is Rick Monday with the infield in.
• 23:26
  Two errors in the inning.
• 23:28
  the stretch.
• 23:29
  Here's the fifth.
• 23:31
  Last ball is low.
• 23:33
  One ball, no strikes.
• 23:35
  Fernandez at third base.
• 23:38
  the infield in.
• 23:39
  Rick Monday the bat.
• 23:44
  That goes down as a three base error.
• 23:49
  Now the stretch, the hesitation.
• 23:51
  the pitch.
• 23:53
  Her ball low, ball two.
• 23:55
  Two balls, no strikes.
• 23:57
  Monday hitting 283.
• 24:00
  We're in the bottom of the second with the A's out in front.
• 24:04
  Frank Fernandez at third base.
• 24:10
  Now Joe Necrol getting ready.
• 24:12
  Two balls, no strikes.
• 24:16
  the stretch.
• 24:17
  Here's the pitch.
• 24:19
  Inside ball three.
• 24:21
  the green would be coming up next.
• 24:24
  And the count three balls to nothing.
• 24:28
  One man out.
• 24:31
  the runner at third base.
• 24:34
  Now the stretch, the three nothing pitch.
• 24:37
  Strike over the outside corner.
• 24:40
  Monday was jockeying around.
• 24:48
  This is not a spot for the baseball ball.
• 24:50
  This is a spot to hit that ball.
• 24:52
  Three balls and a strike.
• 24:55
  Now the stretch, the delivery.
• 24:58
  There's a line shot in the left field.
• 25:00
  A base hit.
• 25:01
  A run is in.
• 25:02
  Monday with a long signal in the left field.
• 25:05
  Has driven in a run.
• 25:09
  16 to RBI.
• 25:12
  Fernandez's score.
• 25:14
  Two to nothing in favor of the A's.
• 25:16
  And here's the green.
• 25:18
  Bouting 193.
• 25:21
  With three homers and nine runs about it in.
• 25:25
  Three nothing out of three last night.
• 25:32
  So with one official hit in the inning, the A's have scored twice.
• 25:37
  And the right handed batter.
• 25:42
  Joe Mitro.
• 25:43
  Big 19 on the back with his gray uniform.
• 25:48
  Green waiting.
• 25:49
  Chokes up on the bat a little bit.
• 25:52
  the stretch.
• 25:55
  the throw to first the runner back.
• 26:01
  Really making a racket out there in the left field stand.
• 26:04
  It's not good.
• 26:07
  Here's the pitch.
• 26:08
  There goes the runner.
• 26:09
  Here's the play.
• 26:10
  They're going to get him maybe.
• 26:11
  He's out.
• 26:15
  A good throw from Frehan.
• 26:17
  To McCollum.
• 26:18
  And Monday trying to steal his cut down.
• 26:25
  Green the batter with a kind of strike one.
• 26:28
  Now Frehan, even though Monday had a great jump on first base,
• 26:32
  he really gunned him out of there.
• 26:36
  Here's a pitch on the way.
• 26:38
  Long and he filed it back straight to.
• 26:41
  Two strikes and nothing.
• 26:43
  On Dick Green.
• 26:51
  the outfield plays him straight away.
• 26:55
  Two strikes, no balls.
• 27:00
  Now the pitch.
• 27:02
  Long and he filed it back.
• 27:16
  Two strikes and nothing.
• 27:18
  Green the hitter.
• 27:20
  Two to nothing in favor of the A's.
• 27:22
  Here's the pitch.
• 27:24
  And it's a curve ball a little bit high on outside.
• 27:28
  A little bit of a play.
• 27:30
  Here's a real last year at Summerfield.
• 27:39
  Here's the pitch.
• 27:41
  High five on the right field.
• 27:42
  Will be caught.
• 27:43
  K-line directly back.
• 27:44
  Under it he has.
• 27:45
  Green flies the K-line.
• 27:47
  But a very good inning.
• 27:49
  Two runs.
• 27:50
  One hit.
• 27:51
  Two errors were charged.
• 27:53
  Nobody left.
• 27:54
  And at the end of two full innings,
• 27:56
  it's nothing.
• 27:58
  You know a lot of people sell themselves short
• 28:00
  whenever they travel on the road.
• 28:02
  They settle for just any service station
• 28:03
  when it's time to stop for gasoline.
• 28:05
  Or maybe they'll take potluck
• 28:07
  when they need a place to stay for the night.
• 28:09
  And more often than not,
• 28:10
  when an emergency arises they just don't know where to turn.
• 28:13
  Well in this day and age that just doesn't make sense.
• 28:16
  You see with one ARCO credit card
• 28:18
  from Atlantic Richfield,
• 28:20
  a man can charge gasoline, repairs, sewing, food, and lodging.
• 28:23
  He can charge a car or truck and always be sure
• 28:26
  he'll be dealing with reliable people.
• 28:28
  Honored at over 24,000
• 28:30
  Atlantic Richfield service stations from coast to coast,
• 28:33
  an ARCO card can bring you food and lodging
• 28:35
  at any Ramada, Treadway, or Friendship Inn,
• 28:38
  at any Hyatt House Hotel or Hyatt Lodge,
• 28:41
  or at any Travel Lodge,
• 28:43
  Emmons Walker, or Superior Motel.
• 28:45
  So if you've been selling yourself short,
• 28:47
  why not stop in at a Richfield station
• 28:49
  and apply for a new ARCO card?
• 28:51
  And get the credit you deserve.
• 28:57
  Well pause for identification.
• 28:59
  This is the Oakland A's baseball network.
• 29:01
  Right on the nose at 2 o'clock,
• 29:03
  KNBR in San Francisco.
• 29:12
  Harry Carrey and Monty Moore from the Coliseum.
• 29:15
  Here's the pitch on the way, swung on.
• 29:17
  By Bill Frehand, a high pop foul over near the stands
• 29:20
  and out of play.
• 29:24
  the gentleman makes a fine catch
• 29:27
  with that pop foul behind the Tigers dugout.
• 29:34
  So now the youngster in the group has the bat,
• 29:37
  the oldster has the ball.
• 29:39
  All they gotta do is swipe a glove
• 29:41
  and they got themselves a ballgame.
• 29:45
  Here's the pitch on the way,
• 29:47
  and it's flowing outside.
• 29:50
  One ball, one strike.
• 29:53
  Top of the third, Bill Frehand.
• 30:00
  Right hand hither waiting.
• 30:02
  Now the delivery.
• 30:04
  There it goes, way back.
• 30:06
  It might be out of here.
• 30:08
  It could be Monday near the wall now.
• 30:10
  He's gonna get it when he does.
• 30:12
  Frehand flies deep to Monday.
• 30:17
  It's right away, center field.
• 30:19
  One gone.
• 30:21
  That ball was in on the nose, but it didn't carry
• 30:24
  as well as the ball had been carrying during batting practice.
• 30:29
  Here's Elliott Maddox.
• 30:32
  22 years old, 5'11, 180 pounds.
• 30:36
  He's got two homers, five runs about it,
• 30:38
  and hitting 217.
• 30:41
  Maddox, the pitch to him.
• 30:44
  He takes the curveball outside.
• 30:49
  Two to nothing.
• 30:55
  Maddox from Eastern Orange, New Jersey.
• 30:57
  Frank Fernandez needs a new glove.
• 31:02
  Maddox went to the University of Michigan.
• 31:05
  He's only been in baseball two years.
• 31:08
  He played at Lakeland in 68 and Rocky Mountain in 69.
• 31:15
  22 years old.
• 31:19
  From the University of Michigan.
• 31:21
  the wind up the pitch.
• 31:23
  There's a smash up the middle, and it's a base.
• 31:26
  They've got a great stop by Frehand,
• 31:29
  and the ball deflected to Campanaro,
• 31:31
  so would have had a play.
• 31:33
  Had he been able to pick the ball up cleanly,
• 31:35
  that would have been something.
• 31:37
  But it goes for an infield hit.
• 31:40
  Green took a headlong dive for the ball,
• 31:44
  deflected it with his glove.
• 31:46
  Campanaro was moving over that way.
• 31:49
  It was almost deflected right into his hands,
• 31:52
  in which case he might have had a play at first base.
• 31:55
  Here's Maddox then on first, and Joe Negros the man.
• 32:00
  Right handed hitter.
• 32:03
  Negros had five hits, including a double and a triple,
• 32:06
  not a bad hitting pitcher.
• 32:08
  the delivery, he bounced ball off to the right.
• 32:11
  One strike and no ball.
• 32:13
  One man out.
• 32:15
  Ball game on the top of the third.
• 32:16
  the A's are leading two to nothing.
• 32:19
  the year's biggest crowd.
• 32:22
  the biggest crowd since opening day.
• 32:25
  the A's third year in Oakland.
• 32:30
  It'll be the largest crowd since that first game they played here.
• 32:34
  Now the stretch to fifth.
• 32:36
  He butts it, nicely.
• 32:38
  the only play by Dobson.
• 32:40
  He tags the runner coming into it.
• 32:42
  A sacrifice.
• 32:44
  Dobson unassisted.
• 32:47
  So here is Dick McCollum.
• 32:50
  He was nothing out of four last night.
• 32:55
  Popped up his first time today.
• 32:57
  We're in the top of the third inning.
• 32:59
  Two to nothing in favor of the A's.
• 33:07
  Dick McCollum.
• 33:11
  Zigs in.
• 33:16
  Now Dobson is ready.
• 33:21
  McCollum facing him head on.
• 33:24
  Now the pitch.
• 33:26
  Did it hit him or did he foul tip it?
• 33:28
  I think he foul tipped it.
• 33:30
  McCollum has his back to the catcher.
• 33:34
  He did foul tip it for a strike.
• 33:36
  He has his back to the catcher.
• 33:41
  Facing the pitcher head on.
• 33:46
  Hitting out of a wide straddle.
• 33:48
  And then he raises his right foot high in the air before he swings.
• 33:52
  Here's the pitch.
• 33:53
  Whoa, did he miss strike two.
• 33:56
  Two strikes and nothing.
• 33:58
  Bottom of the second inning.
• 34:00
  Top of the third inning.
• 34:01
  In the bottom of the second the A's got two to take their two to nothing lead.
• 34:07
  Now there are two out.
• 34:12
  Scoring position in second base.
• 34:14
  Elliott Maddox.
• 34:16
  Dick McCollum waiting.
• 34:18
  the stretch.
• 34:20
  the pitch on the way.
• 34:22
  And here it is.
• 34:26
  Outside.
• 34:27
  Boy Dobson threw the ball exactly where Fernandez was poised.
• 34:31
  Two strikes and nothing.
• 34:33
  Fernandez moved to the outside point.
• 34:35
  Fernandez moved to the outside part of the plate.
• 34:39
  Held his glove about two inches outside the corner of the plate and that's exactly where Dobson threw it.
• 34:47
  Two strikes and a ball.
• 34:50
  the idea with two strikes is to get the ball close enough to tempt the other but not make a good pitch.
• 34:54
  Here's a curve a little high.
• 34:58
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 35:00
  Dobson really working on a tough left handed hitter, Dick McCollum.
• 35:06
  Out of sign.
• 35:10
  Signal gibbet.
• 35:12
  From the belt.
• 35:14
  the delivery, here it is.
• 35:16
  Ground ball hit down to green.
• 35:18
  He's got it.
• 35:19
  Over to Mitcher.
• 35:20
  In time to retire to side.
• 35:22
  McCollum is still hit with the Missouri.
• 35:24
  Nothing out of trick.
• 35:26
  And it still runs.
• 35:28
  One hit, no errors.
• 35:29
  We move now to the bottom half of the third inning.
• 35:32
  the A's two, the Tigers nothing.
• 35:35
  Hotline, a new development in the Paris store.
• 35:41
  Hotline, a fast breaking story on the war in Vietnam.
• 35:45
  Hotline, a presidential news conference.
• 35:48
  Headline events reported with speed and accuracy through NBC radio's exclusive Hotline service.

  the congressional investigation at the nation's capital,
• 36:22
  brought to you with the greatest possible speed via Hotline.
• 36:26
  This is Peter Hackes, NBC News, reminding you to keep your dial set right where it is
• 36:31
  for all the news on the NBC radio network.
• 36:35
  KNBR 680, San Francisco.
• 36:40
  We move into the bottom half of the third inning, two to nothing in favor of the A's.
• 36:46
  Chuck Dobson will be leading it off against Joe Negros.
• 36:51
  It'll be Dobson, Campanella and Alou and if anybody gets on, Reggie Jackson in the center.
• 36:57
  Two to nothing in favor of the A's.
• 37:01
  Two weeks from today we have a Hellman Day.
• 37:11
  Two weeks from today will be Hellman Day.
• 37:16
  This past day is certainly a howling success of Paul Barker's jam.
• 37:23
  A lot of people still haven't been able to get in.
• 37:27
  Here's a pitch to Dobson and it's low and outside.
• 37:32
  One ball and no strikes.
• 37:34
  I think they ran out of bats.
• 37:37
  They had over 30,000 bats.
• 37:39
  They've already run out of them.
• 37:42
  Here's a pitch on the way.
• 37:44
  Swung off by Dobson, a high fly ball to the left.
• 37:47
  Willie Horton under the ball.
• 37:49
  Thanks, Rick.
• 37:52
  Here's Roy Campanella.
• 37:57
  Bert Campanella.
• 38:01
  I said every time I look at that art and I have Roy Campanella on my mind.
• 38:05
  He looks so much like him.
• 38:07
  He's built exactly like Campi.
• 38:11
  He ends up in the play just exactly like Campanella used to do.
• 38:16
  Campi, of course, now has the result of a tragic auto accident
• 38:21
  for years has been in a wheelchair.
• 38:26
  We saw him at the Hall of Fame induction a couple of years ago in Cooperstown.
• 38:36
  So Campi Campanella, right-handed hitter.
• 38:39
  the pitch.
• 38:42
  And it's a strike call.
• 38:43
  It can't be lined out.
• 38:45
  But Northrop is first time up.
• 38:47
  Matt Ox playing a shallow third base.
• 38:50
  Felipe Alou will be next.
• 38:53
  Now the wind up the pitch.
• 38:56
  Offed up in the short center field, he'll be caught.
• 38:58
  Northrop coming in under the ball and he has it.
• 39:02
  Campanella flies to Northrop and short center.
• 39:07
  That's two out and brings up Felipe Alou.
• 39:10
  Billy Foul for the catcher is first up.
• 39:38
  Ball game in the third.
• 39:43
  Necro gets his signal.
• 39:47
  Now the pitch on the way.
• 39:50
  As the high flag wall in the left, it'll be caught.
• 39:54
  Horton's waiting.
• 39:55
  He takes it to retire to south.
• 39:58
  One, two, three, nothing across.
• 40:00
  That was an easy inning for Necro.
• 40:02
  And at the end of three, the Oakland A's to the Detroit Tigers, nothing.
• 40:07
  When Atlantic Richfield Company discovered oil on the north slope of Alaska,
• 40:15
  the place we call the Arco Circle, it took 100,000 tons of supplies and equipment to get started.
• 40:22
  It took 100,000 tons of pipe, cement, drill, gravel, putt, gloves, putts, heaters, tractors, ladders, radios, and orange juice.
• 40:33
  It took planes that carry 48,000 pounds and cost $4,000 a trip.
• 40:38
  It took 160 flights to set up one camp and five flight days to keep it going.
• 40:45
  It took a specially constructed airstrip.
• 40:48
  In short, it took the biggest civilian airlift industry.
• 40:52
  At Atlantic Richfield, we went all the way to Alaska so we can provide your local Richfield dealer
• 40:58
  with the finest Arco petroleum products for your car.
• 41:03
  We're moving to the top of the fourth.
• 41:09
  the A's are out in front.
• 41:10
  Two to nothing.
• 41:11
  I'm moving in to tell you all about it.
• 41:12
  Here's Monty Moore.
• 41:13
  Okay, Harry Gutierrez.
• 41:16
  We'll lead it off in the fourth inning.
• 41:17
  Dobson has allowed two singles so far.
• 41:19
  That's all.
• 41:21
  Chuck's had some tremendous games against the Detroit Tigers.
• 41:25
  He's not had a big winning record against them, but he's always pitched well against this club.
• 41:30
  Gutierrez hit the plate.
• 41:31
  Here's a pitch to him.
• 41:33
  Breaking ball is outside.
• 41:35
  One ball and no strikes.
• 41:37
  Boy, we understand people are still trying to get into the parking lots in areas around the ballpark.
• 41:44
  They're empty seats.
• 41:46
  What you got here?
• 41:47
  Here's a one-oh pitch.
• 41:49
  Right in there a call strike.
• 41:51
  I think the seats are sold, but people apparently haven't gotten to them yet.
• 41:59
  One ball, one strike count on the right-handed batting Gutierrez.
• 42:05
  A pitch swing and a bowtip strike two.
• 42:09
  Merle Hanson needs to play it up or I believe caught another one in the face, man.
• 42:13
  His family is here today.
• 42:14
  I met his wife and two lovely little daughters before the game.
• 42:19
  About eight and ten years old.
• 42:21
  They're here from Maryville where he makes his home.
• 42:24
  They're seeing their daddy banged around a little bit today.
• 42:29
  That old face, man.
• 42:32
  Holding in there.
• 42:34
  One ball, two strikes.
• 42:35
  Actually, this Gutierrez we're calling him, G-U-T-I-E-R-R-E-Z.
• 42:40
  He would pronounce it Gutierrez with the I.
• 42:44
  Here's a pitch.
• 42:46
  Oh, that one looked pretty good.
• 42:47
  Must have been high at ball two.
• 42:49
  Curveball.
• 42:52
  the I in the name right after the T-G-U-T-I would have to be pronounced Gutierrez with a double R-E-Z.
• 43:01
  But he says he doesn't care.
• 43:05
  Here's a two-two pitch.
• 43:07
  Curveball lying in the left center field.
• 43:09
  the Lue's going to have to hurry.
• 43:10
  He's over there.
• 43:11
  He's got it.
• 43:12
  Now there's one out in inning number four and the batter is Al Kaili.
• 43:21
  Al's been on a little bit of a hot streak.
• 43:26
  Backed his 2500th career hit last night.
• 43:30
  There are two other Detroit Tiger players who had more hits than he has had.
• 43:36
  But he has had more hits than all other active American League players.
• 43:40
  Fitch time, low for a ball.
• 43:48
  Only two players in the American League who are still active have hit more home runs in their career than Al.
• 43:54
  Dobson's one and all pitch time.
• 43:57
  Strike on the outside corner by knee-high.
• 44:02
  Boy, what a beautiful sight this place is filled up.
• 44:07
  the biggest crowd since Casey Stingleday here.
• 44:12
  Here's the wind, a one-one pitch.
• 44:14
  Fastball lying to right.
• 44:15
  He's got a base hit.
• 44:16
  It takes one up and Jackson flags it down.
• 44:19
  Kaili is on.
• 44:20
  He hit that ball right where it was pitched.
• 44:24
  Man on for Norm Cash, first baseman who hit seven home runs against the A's last season.
• 44:32
  There were a lot more big ones.
• 44:40
  Norm Cash.
• 44:44
  This guy has a barrel of laughs.
• 44:45
  He's a lot of fun.
• 44:46
  Tremendous sense of humor.
• 44:47
  He's hitting 242.
• 44:49
  There's a high fly ball in a deep right field.
• 44:52
  Way back goes Jackson.
• 44:53
  Back goes Mundy.
• 44:54
  They'll neither one get it.
• 44:55
  It's over the fence.
• 44:56
  We've got a tie ball game.
• 45:02
  Norm Cash hits the first pitch to him over the right center field wall to tie it up.
• 45:07
  And it's just that simple with a long ball.
• 45:10
  Boy, I'll tell you, he really does rip the A's.
• 45:16
  That's his sixth home run of the year.
• 45:18
  And the sixth that Chuck Thompson has given up in 81 innings.
• 45:27
  Cash was talking before the ball game around the batter's case during batting practice how he hated to hit against Thompson.
• 45:33
  This guy's really something.
• 45:35
  Here's a pitch down to Willie Horton.
• 45:37
  It's high and outside for a ball.
• 45:44
  Boy, he can be going long and not do anything and get to Oakland and just wear the baseball out.
• 45:50
  And they're all just like that.
• 45:51
  They put his club back in there.
• 45:52
  Horton takes a strike.
• 45:53
  It's one and one.
• 45:55
  Boy, Willie's starting to clobber that ball, too.
• 45:57
  He's hitting 311.
• 46:06
  the wind is a high fly ball in a deep right field.
• 46:08
  Way back goes Jackson.
• 46:10
  Back goes Mundy.
• 46:11
  They'll neither one get it.
• 46:12
  It's over the fence.
• 46:13
  We've got a tie ball game.
• 46:19
  Norm Cash hits the first pitch to him over the right center field wall to tie it up.
• 46:23
  And it's just that simple with a long ball.
• 46:26
  Boy, I'll tell you, he really does rip the A's.
• 46:32
  That's his sixth home run of the year.
• 46:35
  And the sixth that Chuck Thompson has given up in 81 innings.
• 46:44
  Cash was talking before the ball game around the batter's cage during batting practice how he hated to hit against Thompson.
• 46:50
  This guy's really something.
• 46:52
  Here's a pitch down to Willie Horton.
• 46:53
  It's high and outside for a ball.
• 47:01
  Boy, he can be going long and not do anything and get to Oakland and just wear the baseball out.
• 47:06
  And they're all just like that.
• 47:07
  They put his club back in there.
• 47:09
  Horton takes a strike.
• 47:10
  It's one and one.
• 47:12
  Boy, Willie's starting to clobber that ball, too.
• 47:14
  He's hitting 311.
• 47:22
  the wind is blowing towards right center field.
• 47:25
  And that ball needed just enough help from the wind to get out.
• 47:30
  Now the 1-1 pitch.
• 47:32
  There's a pop foul ball back.
• 47:35
  And it's not going to quite get upstairs.
• 47:40
  Count is a ball and two strikes.
• 47:53
  One out, nobody on.
• 48:00
  Norm Cash took care of that with a two-run homer.
• 48:03
  Here's a pitch to Horton.
• 48:04
  It's outside, ball two.
• 48:11
  the A's play here again tomorrow afternoon at 1-30.
• 48:13
  It should be a good game.
• 48:14
  Catfish Hunter against Mickey Lowlitch.
• 48:22
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 48:29
  Here's the pitch.
• 48:30
  High, ball three.
• 48:40
  So following the home run, Thompson pitching carefully to Willie Horton
• 48:43
  as work to count full at three and two.
• 48:55
  Big powerful luck feeler, the Tigers.
• 48:57
  Move that bat back and forth to get ready for the delivery.
• 49:00
  And here it comes.
• 49:01
  Swinging strike three, Thompson through the ball by.
• 49:06
  That's Chuck's first strikeout today.
• 49:09
  And out here's Jim Northrup who had the first base hit, a single to right in the second inning.
• 49:19
  Northrup, a left-handed batter who hit four grand slam home runs one season.
• 49:25
  the figure the Tigers had two years back when they were world champions.
• 49:29
  Pitch time is a curve in their call strike.
• 49:43
  Here's Thompson winding again at the pitch, way inside.
• 49:48
  One ball and one strike.
• 49:50
  Boy, I know there are a lot of disappointed people here today who didn't,
• 49:53
  or haven't as yet gotten into the ballpark and are close enough to get here.
• 49:58
  Very good friend of ours, longtime friend, Vic Hyden.
• 50:02
  He's two young boys all the way from Nevada this morning.
• 50:08
  And the people that have their tickets aren't here yet.
• 50:11
  Here's a pitch fouled off down the left field line.
• 50:15
  And they've been waiting out here at this ballpark since about 10, 1030 this morning.
• 50:23
  Couldn't get into the ballgame after driving all the way from Reno.
• 50:31
  One and two to count.
• 50:34
  Here's a pitch, swing and a foul down.
• 50:47
  Scores all tied up two and two.
• 50:51
  the A's have been in a little bit of a rut as far as run scoring.
• 50:54
  We've scored four runs the last three games.
• 50:56
  the opposition has scored one run, two runs and two runs.
• 50:59
  So four has been enough to win in three straight games.
• 51:03
  Here's a pitch, high fly ball, foul ground, off third,
• 51:07
  Bando chasing it near the stand, hanging there, Sal, he's got it.
• 51:15
  the nine is retired here in the fourth inning. Two runs for the Tigers, two hits, they didn't leave anybody on.
• 51:21
  And the score in the middle of the fourth is two and two.
• 51:24
  Late news from KNBR. Robert Finch says his health played no part in the decision to remove him as health and welfare secretary.
• 51:32
  Finch will become a special advisor to the president.
• 51:35
  Finch reportedly made the move reluctantly.
• 51:37
  He'll be replaced at HEW by elegant Richardson, an undersecretary of state noted for his administrative ability.
• 51:44
  Senate Democratic leader Mike Mansfield is again called for short-term wage and price controls.
• 51:49
  Arson is considered a possible cause of this morning's fire that caused $400,000 damage to the Playboy Club in West Hollywood.
• 51:57
  A small army of lawmen arrested 34 Indians on trespass charges at a PG&E campground near Redding at dawn.
• 52:05
  Fresno County has started counting the ballots that were cast in Tuesday's election.
• 52:10
  It took four days to reprogram the computers.
• 52:13
  Another bomb was found under a police car in the Berkeley Police parking lot during the night.
• 52:18
  It failed to go off because of a defective fuse.
• 52:21
  And that's the latest from KNBR.
• 52:23
  Well, it looks like a porcupine farm around here right now.
• 52:30
  They just asked all the kids with bats to raise their bats in the air with their head, and it's quite a majestic sight to see here.
• 52:38
  They said wave them. They should have put wave gently.
• 52:41
  You know, it's always an amazing fact to me that two or three kids don't leave the ballpark on that day with skulls bashed in.
• 52:48
  And those foul balls come into the stands. It's bound to be a temptation to try to hit it back out.
• 52:53
  But don't ever do that.
• 52:56
  Here's Reggie Jackson. Our game is tied 2 and 2.
• 53:02
  Jackson, Bando, and Venter.
• 53:04
  Jackson is first time up, grounded a second base.
• 53:14
  Going against Joe Nicrow, a right-hander.
• 53:18
  Reggie sets it to play. Here's a pitch.
• 53:25
  Swing and a roller foul down the first base line.
• 53:28
  the A's are out of the threshold of really going big with winning. They won four games in a row over Chicago in that series up there, May 22nd through 24th.
• 53:39
  They lost one, won two out of three to California, came home, lost two out of three to Cleveland, but beat Baltimore two out of three, and we've now won three in a row again.
• 53:48
  If we could get this guy going, this club could move right on up.
• 53:53
  We've knocked a game and a half off the twins' lead in the last week. Here's a pitch.
• 53:59
  A little high with a fastball, one ball and one strike.
• 54:08
  the A's appear to be about ready to put everything together.
• 54:12
  Here's a 1-1 pitch.
• 54:14
  A drive to the left field is going to be extra-basis. Up against the fence on one hop, Horton feels the ball. Jackson goes flying in the second with a double.
• 54:32
  Well, that's half a home run.
• 54:37
  A line drive that carried to the left field fence on one hop. It taps off that wooden wall so hard that Horton feels it on the fly.
• 54:45
  Now here's Sal Bando in a tied-up game. Let's see if fouls try to go to the right side.
• 54:53
  Bando has 34 runs batted in.
• 54:57
  Nobody out.
• 54:58
  Micro, the pitcher, moves to the front of the rubber now, plants that right foot on it.
• 55:08
  Now here's a pitch.
• 55:10
  Bando fouls it off to the right side, back in the crowd.
• 55:15
  Hey, great catch by somebody right in the crowd out there.
• 55:25
  One strike count on Sal Bando.
• 55:29
  Sal's got 10 home runs. He's hit two off in the last three days.
• 55:35
  Right now he's settled for a single or even a ground ball to the right side just to move Jackson over to scoring position at third where he can score on a fly ball or a ground out.
• 55:47
  Micro finally trying to work him inside.
• 55:50
  Here's a pitch.
• 55:51
  Curve ball hit right back to the mound. Jackson's going to hold it second. Bando is out at first base. Sal's trying to give himself up to hit that ball to the right side.
• 55:59
  Missed doing it because he hit it to the mound on one hop.
• 56:03
  So Jackson wisely held on at second and that takes a pretty good reflexes to do that.
• 56:08
  Because your normal reaction when a ball is hit is to break towards the next bag.
• 56:14
  Now here's Don Mentor and they're having a conference about him on the mound.
• 56:23
  Mentor's been hitting the ball sharply and he's been making his hits pay off. He's hit safely in the last four games.
• 56:29
  Last night he had one hit and knocked in a run.
• 56:35
  He's scored one of the A's runs today.
• 56:39
  One out, tie game. Base hit away from taking the lead.
• 56:43
  Mentor talks the bat over his left shoulder.
• 56:47
  Here's a pitch. Curve ball popped up behind the plate. It's going to be out of play though.
• 56:52
  Oh Don loves that high slow breaking pitch and he really had a cut at it.
• 56:59
  He's hit 12 home runs. the last one he hit was on May 30th against Cleveland here at the Coliseum. the first game of the homestand.
• 57:07
  Bobby Hoffman calls Reggie Jackson down for a little conference.
• 57:11
  Gutierrez has been sneaking back in behind Reggie. Last night we got Monday picked off at second base.
• 57:18
  That's probably a precautionary type conference.
• 57:25
  Crowd chanting gold.
• 57:28
  Jackson is ready to go.
• 57:32
  Here's a pitch to Mentor. Here's a hot shot to the first baseman.
• 57:35
  Jackson holds at second base as Cash steps in the bag at first.
• 57:43
  Reggie didn't even gamble on that one. He hit deep to the right side of the infield.
• 57:52
  So now there are two down. the runner at second. Here's Frank Fernandez.
• 58:02
  That's the ball we would have wanted out of Mentor if Bandos would have gone out to the right side of the infield and moved Jackson over.
• 58:09
  It's all it would have taken to score but Sal's ball went right straight to the mound.
• 58:14
  Here's Frank Fernandez. He talked the roller down the third baseline his first time up and got on on a throwing error.
• 58:21
  the pitch to him. Slider hits the outside corner and calls strike.
• 58:31
  Reggie Jackson at second carrying the go ahead run.
• 58:38
  He's had only two hits off Necro.
• 58:43
  Reggie takes a wide early down off second base. Now Necro doesn't like it. Steps off the rubber to drive him back in.
• 58:52
  With two down the infielders won't be quite as close to Jackson at second. He can get a little bigger lead.
• 59:00
  Now the pitch. There's a high fly ball in the right center field. Hit deep. That ball is carrying well but Kline will catch it short of the warning track.
• 59:08
  And the A's lose a great chance to score here in the fourth inning.
• 59:13
  One hit. One man left on. the score after four is Tigers two and the A's two.
• 59:19
  A card that's squeaking, knocking or backfiring is following your attention to something. It's telling you it needs service.
• 59:26
  But sometimes cars keep secrets and they don't alert you as to what's going wrong.
• 59:31
  That's why regular checkups are so important for any automobile. And why when it's time for a checkup so many people take their car to a Richfield station.
• 59:40
  You see your Richfield dealer is really prepared to give your car the extra service it deserves.
• 59:46
  In the first place he's experienced and he's trained. Beyond the experience of a training there's something else.
• 59:54
  There's the Richfield service guy. the informative manual that tells him all he needs to know about your automobile.
• 1:00:01
  Any car may have problems that aren't easy to spot such as frayed wires, rusted counter bins and tiny oil leaks which never make a lot of noise.
• 1:00:11
  And that's why it's nice to know that when it comes to service in your car Richfield doesn't play things just by ear. They know what they're doing.
• 1:00:21
  Let's check up on some other baseball today. Milwaukee beat Baltimore 6 to 4.
• 1:00:26
  Brab Bender the winner his second win of the year. Palmer the loser 7 and 3. 12,076 saw that game in Milwaukee.
• 1:00:33
  Milwaukee Brewers 6 and the Baltimore Orioles 4.
• 1:00:40
  the Giants beat the Cubs today 5 to 3 for Gaylord Perry's eighth victory of the year. Bill Hans lost his fourth.
• 1:00:47
  34,465 saw that one. Here's a pitch to Bill Freehand and it's in there for a call strike.
• 1:00:56
  Freehand had a flat ball in the center field his first time up. It was caught.
• 1:01:02
  the Yankees beat the White Sox 3 to 1. Cumberland the winner over Holland.
• 1:01:07
  Pitch is outside for a ball. At New York 22,424 today.
• 1:01:13
  Well whereas last night we had one of the smallest crowds in baseball today I bet we have one of the biggest.
• 1:01:24
  One ball one strike Chuck Dobson winding the pitch. Little high ball two.
• 1:01:38
  Well if you saw all these bats up today you'd make a lot of toothpicks.
• 1:01:43
  24,000 or so of them were given away and thousands more coupons. Here's a pitch. Curve is high ball three. That one was close.
• 1:01:52
  Dobson turned his back on a catcher who worked on the mound a little bit. I think he thought that one was in there.
• 1:02:00
  Three balls one strike on Bill Freehand. Big Tiger catcher.
• 1:02:09
  Pitch to him is lined deep in the left center field. It's carrying way back. He's going out of here a home run.
• 1:02:18
  He had to come in with a three ball one strike count. And Freehand hit it out of here.
• 1:02:27
  Dobson is furious. On fire throwing the ball. He didn't even catch it. He let it just fall right on his feet.
• 1:02:34
  Let's pause here for station identification. This is the Oakland A's baseball network.
• 1:02:39
  This is KNBR in San Francisco.
• 1:02:54
  That's the second home run of the game for the Tigers. They lead three to two. Here's Maddox and the pitch is high for a ball.
• 1:03:03
  Al Downing starts to work in the A's bullpen. That is the ninth home run of the year for Bill Freehand.
• 1:03:11
  Pitch right in there calls strike. Freehand leads the Tigers in home runs this year.
• 1:03:21
  His average is low, 229.
• 1:03:29
  Now Dobson's wide. Here's the one one pitch to Maddox. He tried to bun it. It was a tough one to bun.
• 1:03:34
  It was over his head. Or not over his head maybe, but certainly over the strike zone.
• 1:03:39
  Fernandez had to stand up to catch the ball. That's how high it was. And that's a pretty tough one to bun.
• 1:03:49
  One ball and two strikes. the pitch curve high, two and two.
• 1:04:06
  Dobson comes to the plate again. Swing and a miss. Strike three for a breaking ball.
• 1:04:11
  Maddox is out. It's the second strike out for Chuck in the game. And here's the pitcher Joe Necrow.
• 1:04:20
  They say that Necrow, whose brother is a great knuckleball pitcher, throws it just once in a while.
• 1:04:25
  He throws it quite a bit on the sideline. And in warming up prior to the game, they say he'll throw it once in a while.
• 1:04:32
  But he doesn't throw it much in a game.
• 1:04:36
  He's working on it for when he can no longer throw quite as hard.
• 1:04:43
  Here's the pitch. the curve is outside.
• 1:04:55
  We have one out in the fifth. It's three to two. Tigers leading.
• 1:05:02
  That ball is low. Two and oh now.
• 1:05:11
  Well, we've had some great crowds here on our promotion days. Cap day. We had so many people we ran out of caps.
• 1:05:18
  So many people today that ran out of bats.
• 1:05:21
  Cold strike gets right in there two and one.
• 1:05:27
  Some of the other days, a few people were running out of money.
• 1:05:35
  Two and one on Necrow. Oh, beautiful curve. He's putting the bucket at that time. Necrow couldn't have reached it with a long pole.
• 1:05:43
  Strike. It's called two and two.
• 1:05:55
  Here's the next pitch. Swing the foul down.
• 1:06:07
  It's a cool day, but beautifully sunny.
• 1:06:12
  Refreshing compared to that heat we've been having. Here's a pitch outside ball three.
• 1:06:23
  Be another sunshiny afternoon game tomorrow.
• 1:06:27
  Starting at 130 and catfish hunter, our top winner, will go against Mickey Lolic.
• 1:06:34
  Dobson needs a strike here at three and two to the pitcher.
• 1:06:37
  There's a line drive deep in the left field. That lose going back and he is in front of the fence about five feet to grab it.
• 1:06:45
  Hey, Necrow gave that one a pretty good charge.
• 1:06:50
  Dobson getting hurt a little on those pitches where he's having to come in.
• 1:06:55
  Though it was the first pitch that cashed it out of here for a two run homer that tied the game.
• 1:07:03
  Here's Dick McCallum.
• 1:07:10
  Pitch is low, ball one.
• 1:07:13
  It can really hurt you when you've got a leadoff guy on in the middle of batting orders.
• 1:07:17
  It's a fifth and sixth men coming up and it's a leadoff double as the A's had with Jackson last inning and can't move him past second.
• 1:07:26
  There's a high fly ball out behind second base.
• 1:07:29
  Campy's going back. Monday coming in, Campy takes his cap off and finds the ball and makes the catch.
• 1:07:40
  Maybe the bill of his cap was getting in the way or it shades most people.
• 1:07:45
  He made the grab and that retires the side.
• 1:07:48
  We're at the halfway point of the game and here's the score.
• 1:07:50
  the Detroit Tigers three and the Oakland A's two.
• 1:07:54
  Hey girls, we've got a little suggestion for you.
• 1:07:57
  the best way to make your man shape up.
• 1:07:59
  Give him Mr. Levi's stay press slack and there's never been a better time.
• 1:08:05
  Father's Day, you know, is June 21st.
• 1:08:07
  So shape up dad with a pair or two of Mr. Levi's.
• 1:08:10
  It's the way to get dad really with it.
• 1:08:13
  And Mr. Levi's is a gift he really wants.
• 1:08:15
  Darn right, Monty. Mr. Levi's are fuller cut for super comfort and stay press means you never have to iron them.
• 1:08:22
  Nobody but Levi's makes stay press slacks.
• 1:08:25
  They stay neat and fresh all day, whatever the action.
• 1:08:28
  And girls, what a selection.
• 1:08:30
  Great fabrics, patterns and colors.
• 1:08:33
  Traditional belt loop or continental waistband styling.
• 1:08:37
  Mr. Levi's will put dad right in front of the fashion parade.
• 1:08:40
  In the most comfortable slacks he's ever worn.
• 1:08:43
  So look for the dad's day tag on Mr. Levi's stay press slacks at your favorite men's store.
• 1:08:55
  Joe Nicrow will pitch to Rick Monday.
• 1:08:58
  Dick Green and Chuck Dobson in the fifth inning.
• 1:09:01
  It's three to two.
• 1:09:02
  the A's have been having to come from behind to win games lately.
• 1:09:05
  And here we are again.
• 1:09:07
  We are in the unfamiliar spot of leading two to nothing.
• 1:09:10
  When Norm Cash followed an Al Keeline single with a home run over the right center field wall to tie it.
• 1:09:16
  And then Bill Frehan rocketed one out of here over the left field wall.
• 1:09:21
  We got the fireworks guy all poised out behind the center field gate.
• 1:09:26
  And hope we can see some fireworks which are set off when an A's player hits a home run.
• 1:09:38
  Okay, it's Rick Monday up there.
• 1:09:41
  Rick got a base hit and knocked in a run for the A's in the second inning.
• 1:09:49
  Rick's hit in five games in a row on his latest streak.
• 1:09:53
  Batting 287, he's hung right in there from 275 to as high as 400 for a long time.
• 1:10:02
  If any peanut man's listening with a transistor radio,
• 1:10:04
  how Ashby's having a fit up here for peanuts.
• 1:10:10
  Here's a pitch to Monday.
• 1:10:12
  Swing and a miss on a slow curve, strike one.
• 1:10:16
  Ashby's a good bet to buy two or three packs.
• 1:10:19
  He and that cameraman go through them pretty fast.
• 1:10:26
  Oh, what a buzzing crowd.
• 1:10:31
  One strike count on Rick Monday standing off to the side.
• 1:10:35
  Boy, he made a catch here last night.
• 1:10:36
  I'd like for 150,000 people to have seen.
• 1:10:40
  A pitch outside, it's a ball one and one.
• 1:10:54
  Here's the next pitch.
• 1:10:56
  Curve, strike, dropped it right in there.
• 1:11:02
  the run that Rick knocked in was the first RBI he had had since May 20th.
• 1:11:07
  It's been three weeks since he's not going to run, though he had had a lot of base hits.
• 1:11:11
  There just hadn't been anybody on front of him when he hit.
• 1:11:15
  Here's a pitch.
• 1:11:17
  Ah, that Negro can throw pretty hard.
• 1:11:29
  Count it to two, the pitch.
• 1:11:31
  Low, it's ball three.
• 1:11:34
  Rick's got a pretty good eye at the plate.
• 1:11:36
  He's struck out 50 times.
• 1:11:38
  That's the only thing that's out of ratio in his statistics column.
• 1:11:51
  Tigers have really put this Negro to work.
• 1:11:53
  This is the 13th game he's started.
• 1:11:56
  Here's a 3-2 pitch, bowled away by Rick.
• 1:12:01
  He's all the way to the third deck.
• 1:12:06
  See, lots of evidence here today of people who were here on cap day
• 1:12:09
  because there are thousands and thousands of Kelly Green caps down in the crowd.
• 1:12:24
  Count is full.
• 1:12:30
  Negro ready to work and here it comes.
• 1:12:33
  Walk team, and there's the start for the A's.
• 1:12:36
  Got the tie runner on, we can get him around with the bottom thirds of batting order.
• 1:12:39
  Here is Dick Green.
• 1:12:45
  Boy Green, he got back in the lineup last night for the first time in a while,
• 1:12:48
  and believe me, he had some tough plays at second base on double plays.
• 1:12:54
  He got hung up down there twice, once when Mando couldn't get the ball out of his glove,
• 1:12:58
  and he had to wait, and the other time when Latchman couldn't get it out of his glove,
• 1:13:01
  and he had to wait, and he got clobbered both times.
• 1:13:07
  Green is batting 193.
• 1:13:12
  Mundy leading away at first base.
• 1:13:14
  Necron's a stretch.
• 1:13:16
  3-2, Tigers lead. Mundy's going.
• 1:13:18
  Green bows it back.
• 1:13:19
  Look out here, you may get it.
• 1:13:20
  Oh, just off the booth to our left.
• 1:13:24
  We need a longer net, I've been saying that all year.
• 1:13:30
  That one came in the booth just off to our left.
• 1:13:41
  One strike count on Dick Green.
• 1:13:48
  Mundy was running on that last pitch.
• 1:13:52
  He draws a throw.
• 1:13:54
  Hey, Ashby, somebody just threw a peanut in our booth out of the upper deck to help you out there.
• 1:13:59
  I'm hungry, I'm going to eat it.
• 1:14:01
  It never got to Ashby.
• 1:14:04
  I threw it to the shortstop, Kerry, and he gobbled it up.
• 1:14:10
  One strike count on Green.
• 1:14:14
  Necron holding a long time to pitch.
• 1:14:16
  Greeny bows it back upstairs.
• 1:14:21
  No balls, two strikes.
• 1:14:29
  Testing the advertising power of our network today.
• 1:14:32
  Advertised for a peanut salesman for Ashby.
• 1:14:38
  We'd better get one pretty soon.
• 1:14:42
  There came another one.
• 1:14:45
  Here's the 0-2 pitch to Green now.
• 1:14:48
  Nope, they're going to throw the first.
• 1:14:58
  Nate goes out ahead of Greeny.
• 1:15:01
  Here's the pitch.
• 1:15:03
  Inside, ball one.
• 1:15:06
  Green has three home runs.
• 1:15:07
  He knocked in nine runs.
• 1:15:15
  He never really got going this year in the average department, though he had base hits in his first six games he played.
• 1:15:24
  One ball, two strikes.
• 1:15:26
  Monday's got a big lead at first.
• 1:15:28
  Draws a throw and goes back in on his stomach.
• 1:15:33
  Up there there is John Red Flaherty.
• 1:15:36
  They don't call him Red because of his hair.
• 1:15:38
  It's silver gray.
• 1:15:40
  Another throw.
• 1:15:41
  Monday has to hit the dirt again.
• 1:15:43
  He's widened that lead out quite a bit and Necro doesn't like the looks of it.
• 1:15:46
  He's keeping Monday a little closer.
• 1:15:51
  He's going to need to run the tie.
• 1:15:52
  We've got that man on now.
• 1:15:54
  Greeny could get an extra base hit.
• 1:15:55
  Monday, as fast as he is, could probably score.
• 1:15:59
  Another throw and Rick almost stumbled getting back to first that time.
• 1:16:04
  He asked for time.
• 1:16:05
  He's going to have to get a little dirt off of him.
• 1:16:08
  Got in his eyes as he dived back in.
• 1:16:10
  Rick slipped a little bit as he hit the dirt that time.
• 1:16:14
  He had to crawl the last fifth.
• 1:16:16
  Monday, what would you call that bridle white now?
• 1:16:22
  That's beautiful on the A's we're wearing today.
• 1:16:23
  Wedding gown white.
• 1:16:24
  It's not exactly wedding gown white, is it?
• 1:16:26
  It looks like thick pin dirt.
• 1:16:30
  Necro throws again.
• 1:16:31
  It's just Crowhawk back on there this time.
• 1:16:42
  Looks like something happened to the wedding gown after Jilted Sooter got a sweeter suitor
• 1:16:46
  or got a hold of it or something.
• 1:16:47
  Another throw to first.
• 1:16:48
  They're afraid of Monday taking off.
• 1:16:53
  I don't know if they count the pitches on Necro, but if they count those throws to first,
• 1:16:57
  it adds a lot of pitches.
• 1:16:59
  Now the crowd's really chanting go.
• 1:17:01
  Another throw to first.
• 1:17:02
  the Tigers must think they have a sign.
• 1:17:16
  One ball, two strikes to count on Green.
• 1:17:18
  Nobody out.
• 1:17:22
  Necro holding a long time, throws to first again, and Monday hot dives back in again.
• 1:17:26
  Now Freehand is going out to talk to him.
• 1:17:29
  Rick really doesn't steal that many bases, but the A's did have a hit and run play on
• 1:17:37
  in one of the earlier counts on Green.
• 1:17:39
  In fact, Monday's stolen only five bases.
• 1:17:42
  He's been thrown out three times.
• 1:17:44
  But Necro doesn't want to give him any advantage over there.
• 1:17:48
  As a matter of fact, he's trying to take away one advantage you get by leading off.
• 1:17:52
  But he may be losing a little concentration on the batter.
• 1:17:57
  Now he's set.
• 1:17:59
  Here's the pitch.
• 1:18:00
  Here's a bouncing ball, a third.
• 1:18:02
  Fooded momentarily by the third baseman, but he gets it away in a second in time for the
• 1:18:06
  fourth there.
• 1:18:07
  No double play.
• 1:18:08
  Man excluded that ball in with the luck would have it.
• 1:18:11
  It came right up in his hands again.
• 1:18:14
  He was able to get Monday at second base.
• 1:18:17
  And the difference in Monday being able to start on a ball that Green hit and not being
• 1:18:22
  able to start is that they would not have gotten him at second base on that fumble ball
• 1:18:26
  if it had been started.
• 1:18:29
  Oh, that Maddox showed me some kind of hands in.
• 1:18:37
  He didn't feel it cleanly, but he got it enough that it bounced right up in front of him and
• 1:18:41
  he grabbed it with a bare right hand and fired a second for the fourth Green beating the
• 1:18:44
  throw to first.
• 1:18:45
  Now here is Chuck Thompson with one out.
• 1:18:47
  They'll be looking for the putt here.
• 1:18:49
  It's three to two Detroit leading.
• 1:18:57
  Here's the pitch.
• 1:18:58
  Thompson fronts it out towards the mound and it's a beauty.
• 1:19:00
  Only one play and that's the first.
• 1:19:02
  He throws to McCollum covering.
• 1:19:04
  Necro made the throw.
• 1:19:05
  Now Campy can get a base hit.
• 1:19:07
  the A's could tie it up here.
• 1:19:15
  Dick Green is at second carrying the tying run.
• 1:19:18
  the A's had Jackson at second with nobody out in the fourth inning and didn't get him
• 1:19:23
  moved.
• 1:19:26
  Campanaro's throw for two today lined out in the right center field in the first inning
• 1:19:30
  and pops the center field at the next time up.
• 1:19:37
  Campy has knocked in 12 runs this year.
• 1:19:40
  He's hit four home runs.
• 1:19:47
  Choking way up on the bat handle.
• 1:19:50
  Necro ready throws.
• 1:19:51
  Curve low.
• 1:19:52
  Ball one.
• 1:19:55
  Tigers ahead on two homers.
• 1:19:56
  One by Cash with a man on and the go ahead homer by Bill Freehand.
• 1:20:12
  Green comes away from second base.
• 1:20:13
  Here's the pitch.
• 1:20:14
  Campy swings and misses a curve.
• 1:20:16
  He was way out front on that breaking ball.
• 1:20:18
  One ball and one strike.
• 1:20:21
  the A's are seeing Necro for the very first time.
• 1:20:25
  But they are starting the third go around against him here today and that's usually
• 1:20:28
  enough to find out what a guy has.
• 1:20:32
  His ERA is not too impressive, 3.53, and his record is four wins, five losses starting
• 1:20:38
  today, but he's been very sharp here.
• 1:20:41
  A's have only two hits.
• 1:20:44
  Here's the pitch.
• 1:20:46
  Strike gets right in there at one and two now.
• 1:20:57
  Two down and a man on.
• 1:20:59
  We're in the last half of the fifth inning of Jam-Pack Stadium.
• 1:21:02
  Coliseum and Oakland, the home of the swinging A's and the Raiders.
• 1:21:08
  One-two pitch.
• 1:21:10
  Curve swung on and missed.
• 1:21:12
  Strike three.
• 1:21:13
  Campy chased a bad pitch that time.
• 1:21:15
  Well, Necro survives another man in scoring position, getting his first strike out of
• 1:21:20
  the ballgame.
• 1:21:21
  After five innings, it's the Tigers three and the A's two.

• 1:22:12
  Gutierrez, the shortstop for the Tigers, will lead off.
• 1:22:15
  Then K-Line and Cash against Chuck Dobson.
• 1:22:18
  There's a sign up on the scoreboard that certainly is off note.
• 1:22:22
  It's helmet day here.
• 1:22:24
  Saturday, June 20th.
• 1:22:26
  A's helmet.
• 1:22:31
  That's a replica of the ones that the A's wear at bat.
• 1:22:35
  They're giving away to everybody 14 and under two weeks from today.
• 1:22:39
  Time to start getting tickets in advance for that now.
• 1:22:42
  Here's the first pitch to Gutierrez at foul back, strike one.
• 1:22:46
  Also have a t-shirt day coming up and everybody 16 and under will get t-shirts on that day.
• 1:22:59
  Cesar Gutierrez.
• 1:23:04
  the pitch time.
• 1:23:06
  Foul off.
• 1:23:08
  He has one of those big power type stances where he really never looks ready.
• 1:23:13
  Got that bat almost out in front of him and as the pitcher swings into his windup, he draws it back.
• 1:23:24
  Two strikes to count on Gutierrez to lead it off here in the sixth.
• 1:23:40
  Now Dobson's pitch.
• 1:23:41
  Sidearm curve ball and he went down swinging.
• 1:23:44
  Oh, that was a bad pitch with a great man with two strikes on ya.
• 1:23:48
  Dobson went sidearm for the first time today.
• 1:23:51
  That's a pitcher's pitch and Gutierrez had to chase it because he was in a hole.
• 1:23:58
  Dobson's third strike out.
• 1:23:59
  He hasn't walked anybody.
• 1:24:00
  Necron's walked only one.
• 1:24:03
  Here's Al Kailin.
• 1:24:06
  Al got a base hit to start the Tigers in the fourth.
• 1:24:09
  Pitch time.
• 1:24:11
  Strike on the outside corner.
• 1:24:13
  Al went right to right field with a pitch that was thrown to him.
• 1:24:19
  He was on when Cash belted one out of here.
• 1:24:24
  One strike pitch.
• 1:24:25
  Fastball fouled off and that Kailin doesn't get cheated on many swings.
• 1:24:28
  He had all of it right then.
• 1:24:39
  And I think if you come to the ball game tomorrow, you look for the two hustlingest guys on the field.
• 1:24:45
  You'll see two guys who are in their 30s.
• 1:24:47
  Now, Lou and Kailin.
• 1:24:49
  Sidearm curve from Dobson was over the plate, apparently a little high.
• 1:24:58
  the real stars of the game play every play of every game as hard as they can.
• 1:25:03
  Here's the pitch.
• 1:25:05
  It's high, ball two.
• 1:25:07
  Two balls and two strikes.
• 1:25:11
  Hernandez must have thought that was a called third strike.
• 1:25:15
  They popped out of his bed and he hustled to pick it up.
• 1:25:18
  He was going to tag Kailin.
• 1:25:24
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 1:25:31
  the bench swing and a miss.
• 1:25:33
  Strike three.
• 1:25:34
  Dobson gave Kailin a great big leg kick and motion and pulled the string on him.
• 1:25:40
  No check is struck out the first two men and the second here is Norm Cash, his longtime nemesis.
• 1:25:52
  He's got a short swing for a home run swinger, but it's got a lot of power in it.
• 1:26:01
  Big time fastball, swing and a miss.
• 1:26:03
  Strike one.
• 1:26:08
  Playing in Tiger Stadium, the left-handed hitter's delight.
• 1:26:12
  Cash has hit a lot of them there.
• 1:26:20
  One strike count on him.
• 1:26:21
  Here's the pitch.
• 1:26:23
  Swinging strike two.
• 1:26:24
  Dobson is throwing some smoke up there right now.
• 1:26:30
  That's rare backhand right on down by the river with those first two.
• 1:26:35
  It's three to two Tigers lead and the next inning we'll have Lou Jackson and Vando.
• 1:26:43
  the pitch.
• 1:26:44
  Smoke team again.
• 1:26:45
  Swinging strike three.
• 1:26:48
  Dobson got mad and just fired three in a row right by Norm Cash.
• 1:26:52
  So he struck out the side here in the sixth inning.
• 1:26:55
  And in the middle of the sixth the score is the Detroit Tigers three and the Oakland A's two.
• 1:27:02
  the Arctic tundra, 12 inches of vegetation covering frozen ground a thousand feet deep.
• 1:27:07
  One Atlantic rich field company discovered oil on Alaska's north slope, the place we call the Arco Circle.
• 1:27:13
  We found out if you disturb the tundra you cause erosion.
• 1:27:16
  A tire track can cause a 50-foot gorge.
• 1:27:19
  We stopped driving our trucks across it and started experiments with 13 different kinds of grass seeds so that if erosion occurs we'd be ready.
• 1:27:27
  the seeding has to be done by hand.
• 1:27:29
  the fertilizing has to be done by helicopters.
• 1:27:31
  And the grasses will have to be incredibly hardy to make it.
• 1:27:34
  But if they do, there will be a way to protect the delicate tundra forever.
• 1:27:38
  At Atlantic Rich Field Company, we're doing this because we believe drilling for oil and conservation go together.
• 1:27:45
  We went all the way to Alaska to drill for oil so we can provide your local rich field dealer with the finest Arco petroleum products for your car.
• 1:27:53
  Well, we're ready to go into the top half of the sixth inning and before the A's get some runs to take the lead here in this inning, let's pause for station identification.
• 1:28:08
  This is the Oakland A's baseball network.
• 1:28:10
  This is KNBR in San Francisco.
• 1:28:13
  It's Philippe Allou to lead it off for the A's.
• 1:28:27
  Philippe A hitting.338 when the game started today. He's dropped only three points and two at bats.
• 1:28:33
  He popped to the catcher and flied to left field.
• 1:28:38
  He'll be followed by Jackson and Bando.
• 1:28:44
  Lucky inning last night, Monty. Let's see what lightning will strike again.
• 1:28:49
  Got to do it.
• 1:28:50
  A little short trip around the chair to change things around again today.
• 1:28:54
  All right, Necro nods approval of the first sign. Here's a pitch.
• 1:28:59
  Slider, ooh, he threw that ball. Good strike call.
• 1:29:03
  Quick breaking slider to the outside part of the plate.
• 1:29:09
  He seemingly has had a good one today.
• 1:29:12
  the bench. Line drive, right center field. K-line is going to be there. He's got it one down.
• 1:29:18
  Allou right now is 0-4-10.
• 1:29:26
  Look at Sloppy's been in this year. Here's Reggie Jackson.
• 1:29:33
  Reggie got a double into the corner and left field his last time up.
• 1:29:37
  Move his average to 199.
• 1:29:40
  Certainly Joe Rudy has been playing left field and doing a good job of it.
• 1:29:43
  He's in the military reserve duty this weekend. He and Dave Duck and the A's have young catcher Gene Tennant up here.
• 1:29:51
  Here's a pitch to Jackson.
• 1:29:53
  A little high of all one. Boy, nothing would set this crowd on fire like a tater by Jackson.
• 1:29:59
  And out in Reggie's regiment.
• 1:30:03
  They're waiting for it.
• 1:30:05
  One ball, no strikes. It's a pitch.
• 1:30:08
  Swing and a miss. He tried to go, I believe, to the opposite field again. He swung a little late, if not, on a breaking ball to the outside part of the plate.
• 1:30:18
  Jackson has eight home runs and 18 runs batted in.
• 1:30:23
  You know, Bill Frehan leads the Tigers with eight home runs.
• 1:30:28
  Here's a 1-1 pitch. There's a foul ball out of play. It's headed for the upper deck.
• 1:30:35
  Landed a little short of the upper deck. Way foul down the right field line.
• 1:30:40
  So, Negros ahead of Jackson at one ball, two strikes.
• 1:30:51
  Negros turns around and sees a glance at the scoreboard, which shows a ball, two strikes, and the Tigers leading 3-2.
• 1:30:57
  Here's a pitch. Jackson fouls it off the other way this time.
• 1:31:05
  So, he's hit it one to his relatives in right field and one in left.
• 1:31:14
  Now, one for the cousins in right center.
• 1:31:18
  One and two counts.
• 1:31:23
  Here's the pitch.
• 1:31:26
  High. Negros threw a fastball.
• 1:31:35
  Pando kneeling on deck. Jackson at the plate.
• 1:31:41
  So, he's hit it one to his relatives in right field and one in left.
• 1:31:50
  Now, one for the cousins in right center.
• 1:31:54
  One and two counts.
• 1:31:59
  Here's the pitch. High. Negros threw a fastball.
• 1:32:08
  Counts two balls, two strikes. Pando kneeling on deck. Jackson at the plate.
• 1:32:17
  Negros' pitch. Slow curve. He struck him out swinging.
• 1:32:21
  Throw a good, slow curveball that time to Jackson, and he went out of there.
• 1:32:25
  So, there are two down. That's only the second strike out of the game for Negros, and here's Pando.
• 1:32:30
  Boy, I had a feeling about Reggie right there. I could just see him hit that ball out of here.
• 1:32:39
  For those of you who follow horse racing, high echelon has just won the Belmont State.
• 1:32:47
  Here's Sal Pando.
• 1:32:51
  the pitch. Outside. Negros has stopped the A's on two hits so far.
• 1:33:03
  We've been having about one good inning a game. Here's a pitch. Outside.
• 1:33:08
  Last night, it was a four-run, sixth inning.
• 1:33:15
  Thompson is pitching well today.
• 1:33:20
  A couple more.
• 1:33:23
  Here's a two-hole pitch. Pando pops his foul out of play. Had a good cut at that pitch.
• 1:33:34
  Two and one.
• 1:33:37
  If Sal could get on, Don Metcher will be next.
• 1:33:49
  Now the pitch.
• 1:33:52
  Little high ball. Three and three and one on Pando.
• 1:33:56
  That was the count on Freehand when Freehand hit his home run out of here.
• 1:34:06
  There's a line in the right center field. A base hit.
• 1:34:11
  Now Kaleid over to his right to pick it up. Pando's going to try for two. Kaleid's got a good arm, but he throws it off line. It's a double for Pando.
• 1:34:27
  Now Pando. Ripped a three-one pitch out of the right center field for a double.
• 1:34:32
  Now here's Don Metcher with first base open and Frank Fernandez coming up next.
• 1:34:38
  See what kind of good pitches he'll get Metcher here if he can.
• 1:34:46
  There are two down.
• 1:34:49
  Runner at second, and this is the third time we've had that tying run at second base.
• 1:34:55
  And couldn't get him in.
• 1:34:59
  This time, maybe Metcher can do it.
• 1:35:07
  Necro backs off the river for a moment.
• 1:35:13
  North Cache has been over the mound to say something to Necro and pointed to the on-deck area where Fernandez is.
• 1:35:22
  Here's a pitch.
• 1:35:25
  He tried to hold up on his swing, but he couldn't. It was high and inside. It goes for strike one.
• 1:35:30
  Tiger Dugout trying to get Gutierrez to shortstop to move over behind second.
• 1:35:38
  Metcher got his hit last night right up the middle and knocked in a run.
• 1:35:42
  Necro got a big strike right then.
• 1:35:45
  He got down to go for a pitch he now didn't want to go for.
• 1:35:51
  Here's a pitch. Cardball hits foul past first base.
• 1:35:55
  So Necro is out ahead of Metcher. He's not wasting anything on him.
• 1:35:59
  He's going to try to get him.
• 1:36:04
  Fernandez got home run fire. They don't want to put that lead run on base.
• 1:36:14
  Tigers three, the A's two, last of the six.
• 1:36:20
  Mando is at second, a hit away from tying the game.
• 1:36:24
  No two counts. the pitch wasted outside, ball one.
• 1:36:46
  One ball, two strikes on Metcher.
• 1:36:50
  Necro ready. the pitch, high two and two.
• 1:36:55
  Don is at half of his 12 home runs here at the Coliseum.
• 1:37:09
  Now the big lieutenant hitting first baseman stands in with a count of two balls, two strikes.
• 1:37:13
  Necro is really working on him now after getting those two quick strikes.
• 1:37:19
  Mando off second base. Gutierrez playing right behind him.
• 1:37:23
  Here's a pitch. Cardball right in the right field, hanging there.
• 1:37:26
  It's a foul ball by about 12 inches.
• 1:37:33
  Oh, Metcher got his pitch in, a slow curve ball, and he loves it.
• 1:37:38
  He was just a little bit anxious and he pulled it down the line in right field.
• 1:37:42
  It fell foul by about 12 inches it looked like.
• 1:37:47
  That ball was well out over first base at one time, but it had that hook spin on it and just kept hooking and landed foul.
• 1:37:57
  So the count hangs on at two and two.
• 1:38:05
  Mando back to second. I don't think Don's going to see that pitch again.
• 1:38:14
  Freehand calls the sign now.
• 1:38:19
  Necro gets set.
• 1:38:21
  the pitch, fastball popped up on the infield.
• 1:38:26
  Norm Cash is calling for it, makes the catch and fouls around.
• 1:38:30
  And the A's lose another chance with a runner in second base.
• 1:38:34
  No fixed innings have come and gone. It's still Detroit 3 and Oakland 2.
• 1:38:40
  We're still in it. For the last three ought to be something. Here's Harry.
• 1:38:44
  And the pitch stops to stay close.
• 1:38:47
  So hold the tribe because you have the feeling somewhere along the line the A's will get to Joe Necro.
• 1:38:54
  Willie Horton leading it off.
• 1:38:57
  He struck out and flied out.
• 1:39:00
  Chuck Johnson struck out three in a row and a sixth.
• 1:39:05
  Here's the pitch. Horton swings high pop fly on the infield. Mando.
• 1:39:10
  Waiting for it in fair territory, makes the catch.
• 1:39:13
  Horton on the first pitch. Popped to Mando.
• 1:39:16
  Here's Jim Nothra.
• 1:39:19
  Good one, town hitter. He's had one out of three.
• 1:39:23
  Make that one out of two today.
• 1:39:25
  Nothing out of four last night.
• 1:39:28
  On the top of the 7, 3 to 2 in favor of Detroit.
• 1:39:34
  the biggest crowd since the first America League game ever played here today.
• 1:39:39
  Here's the pitch curve into the dirt.
• 1:39:42
  One ball, no strikes. Looking ahead to the bottom of the 7.
• 1:39:46
  Fernandez, Monday and Green.
• 1:39:50
  the bullpen is alive down there.
• 1:39:55
  Diego Seguin and Paul Lindblad.
• 1:39:57
  One ball, no strikes. the pitch a little low.
• 1:40:01
  Ball two.
• 1:40:03
  One away in the top of the 7.
• 1:40:09
  Two home runs of the counter for the three runs.
• 1:40:12
  the Detroiters score. Here's the pitch.
• 1:40:15
  Mike over the outside corner, today.
• 1:40:18
  Two balls and a strike.
• 1:40:20
  Jim Nothra who's hit seven homers.
• 1:40:23
  Batting 284.
• 1:40:25
  Left hand batter swings that bat around.
• 1:40:28
  Dobson fifth.
• 1:40:30
  Swung late and fouled out of play.
• 1:40:32
  Not even set up with two balls, two strikes.
• 1:40:35
  Nothra a tall, rangy left hand hitter.
• 1:40:42
  Tuck Dobson gets sent.
• 1:40:47
  Notham's run with the Tigers now. This is seventh year.
• 1:40:52
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 1:40:54
  Now the pitch by Dobson. Here it is.
• 1:40:57
  He had a cut and he fouled it back.
• 1:41:00
  the count stays even up.
• 1:41:02
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 1:41:05
  Cash hit a two run homer in the fourth.
• 1:41:08
  Bill Frean hit a three one pitch for a home run in the fifth.
• 1:41:13
  the two runs the A's made were unearned in the second.
• 1:41:15
  So they're built for an attack against young Joe Necron.
• 1:41:20
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 1:41:23
  Now the pitch to the left hand hitter. Here it is.
• 1:41:26
  Line drive in the left center of base hit.
• 1:41:29
  Here's Nothra Brown for his base. He'll hold.
• 1:41:32
  Now Lew gets the ball back into the infield.
• 1:41:35
  Jim Nothra blind to single over Campanaris' head.
• 1:41:39
  Here's Bill Frean.
• 1:41:44
  the homer in the fifth gave the Tigers a present three to two lead.
• 1:41:53
  One out, one on.
• 1:42:00
  Out of signal given.
• 1:42:05
  Elliott Maddox will be next.
• 1:42:08
  the stretch the fifth.
• 1:42:10
  Curve ball, strike ball.
• 1:42:12
  He may have gotten away with a pitch that time.
• 1:42:16
  That was a high strike to the inside part of the plate.
• 1:42:20
  Frean took it. One strike, a no ball.
• 1:42:23
  One on, one out. Big right handed hitter waiting.
• 1:42:29
  Now Thompson gets up. Called for time.
• 1:42:35
  Frean in his ninth year with the Tigers.
• 1:42:40
  Big catcher stands six three, weighs 200.
• 1:42:43
  Throw to first the runner back.
• 1:42:46
  One on, one out. Lindblad and Segui are warm in the bullpen.
• 1:42:53
  Right handed batter digging in.
• 1:42:55
  the stretch.
• 1:42:57
  Here's the pitch. He swings it a bad ball and he misses.
• 1:43:01
  Two strikes and nothing.
• 1:43:04
  Frean chased the slider high and away.
• 1:43:08
  One on, one out.
• 1:43:10
  Ball game in the seventh.
• 1:43:14
  Three to two in favor of the Tigers.
• 1:43:17
  Well, it would be a shame to lose this one before such a tremendous crowd.
• 1:43:21
  Now the pitch. Sidearm curve outside.
• 1:43:24
  Two strikes and a ball.
• 1:43:26
  Frank Fernandez behind the plate.
• 1:43:28
  He'll be leading off the bottom of the seventh.
• 1:43:32
  Jim Northrup, the runner at first, one out.
• 1:43:35
  Thompson getting ready.
• 1:43:39
  Two strikes and a ball.
• 1:43:43
  the stretch.
• 1:43:45
  the pitch.
• 1:43:46
  Here it is. He struck him out.
• 1:43:50
  Frean.
• 1:43:53
  Had a very weak swing of that ball.
• 1:43:55
  Looks like he may have tried to stop it with the slider on the outside corner anyway.
• 1:44:01
  And that's two away. Here's Elliott Maddux.
• 1:44:04
  He's singled in the third. He struck out on the fifth.
• 1:44:09
  Marill Anthony, the plate umpire, picking up some loose papers.
• 1:44:13
  They haven't announced the crowd as yet.
• 1:44:16
  It'll be in excess of 45,000.
• 1:44:23
  Right hand hitter waiting.
• 1:44:26
  Now the stretch.
• 1:44:28
  Throw over to first.
• 1:44:31
  Here's the center back.
• 1:44:35
  Elliott Maddux singled and struck out.
• 1:44:38
  Right hand is out of the pitch.
• 1:44:40
  Ground ball hit the bandos.
• 1:44:41
  Well, nice stop. the play the second. He's out.
• 1:44:44
  Bandol made a fine play to his left.
• 1:44:48
  And through to Northrup.
• 1:44:50
  Through the green to force Northrup.
• 1:44:53
  And it's no runs. One hit, no errors. One left.
• 1:44:56
  We move down to the bottom of seventh. Everybody up on their feet with a scar.
• 1:45:02
  the Tigers three, the A's two.
• 1:45:07
  You know, some fashion experts predict American men will soon be carrying handbags instead of wallets.
• 1:45:13
  That sound absurd to you?
• 1:45:14
  But I don't forget these things don't happen overnight.
• 1:45:17
  They evolve over a period of time.
• 1:45:19
  And for quite some time now, wallets have been bulging, splitting, and growing to enormous size.
• 1:45:24
  You see, it's all those old fashioned bulky credit cards.
• 1:45:27
  the more you have to carry, the more your wallet suffers.
• 1:45:30
  And if the present trend continues, the wallet, as we know it, just won't survive the strain.
• 1:45:35
  That's why Atlantic Richfield considers its new Arco credit card a step in the right direction.
• 1:45:40
  You see, one credit card honored at over 24,000 service stations, hundreds of hotels and motels,
• 1:45:45
  and all Hertz offices from coast to coast is a sure bet to slim down a wallet, not make it lumpier.
• 1:45:52
  That means there'll be that many fewer cards you'll have to carry.
• 1:45:55
  So if you'd like to join in turning back the trend, why not stop in at a Richfield station
• 1:46:00
  and see about a new Arco credit card?
• 1:46:02
  Chances are it's more your bag.
• 1:46:06
  Well, some 45,000 people on our feet.
• 1:46:10
  See a big banner there, the Grey Avenue Athletic Club.
• 1:46:17
  You see a lot of A's caps, a lot of the green bats.
• 1:46:21
  A gala day at the Old Ball Bar.
• 1:46:24
  A crowd of in excess of 45,000.
• 1:46:28
  Brilliant sunshine, a tight ballgame.
• 1:46:32
  What more could you want on a Saturday afternoon?
• 1:46:37
  Here is Fernandez.
• 1:46:40
  He's nothing out of two.
• 1:46:42
  Right-handed batter, bottom of the seventh.
• 1:46:44
  It's late. We need some runs.
• 1:46:48
  Fernandez, Monday and green come up in this inning.
• 1:46:52
  And probably a pinch hit if anybody gets on.
• 1:46:55
  Ward-Domson.
• 1:46:59
  Joe Micros allowed only three hits.
• 1:47:03
  Single by Monday in the second.
• 1:47:08
  A double by Jackson in the fourth.
• 1:47:11
  And a double by Bando in the sixth.
• 1:47:13
  the first pitch swung on in this.
• 1:47:15
  One strike and no ball.
• 1:47:18
  Nobody on and nobody out.
• 1:47:20
  Bottom half of the seventh inning.
• 1:47:22
  Right-hand hitter waiting.
• 1:47:24
  Now the pitch.
• 1:47:26
  There's a high top foul.
• 1:47:29
  Everybody chasing it. Everybody chasing.
• 1:47:31
  Guperas is there.
• 1:47:32
  And Harry Maddux couldn't make the catch.
• 1:47:39
  No play. He had to run a long way into the eighth fullback.
• 1:47:43
  It looked like Guperas had the best angle on the ball,
• 1:47:46
  but Maddux would yell for it.
• 1:47:48
  And the ball went right through his arm.
• 1:47:52
  No! Fernandez is in the hole.
• 1:47:54
  Two strikes and nothing.
• 1:48:02
  the outfield shades him towards left field.
• 1:48:07
  the edge trailing by a run.
• 1:48:11
  the fifth ball game.
• 1:48:14
  Two strikes, no ball.
• 1:48:16
  the fifth.
• 1:48:17
  High-hand side.
• 1:48:20
  Fernandez hitting 271.
• 1:48:24
  Going into the game.
• 1:48:26
  Two strikes and the ball.
• 1:48:29
  Now ready for the pitch from Necrol.
• 1:48:32
  Stuck him out on a curve ball.
• 1:48:36
  Fernandez goes down swinging.
• 1:48:38
  Necrol is only fan three.
• 1:48:45
  And here's Rick Monday, single and one.
• 1:48:50
  the A's wasted their best chance on the fourth one.
• 1:48:53
  Reggie Jackson let off with a double to left.
• 1:48:58
  the band will bounce for the pitcher.
• 1:49:00
  Mincher grounded the catch.
• 1:49:02
  And Fernandez flat out to Kailah.
• 1:49:05
  One out, nobody on, bottom of the seventh.
• 1:49:09
  Grancona's going to bat for green next.
• 1:49:14
  Necrol's pitch.
• 1:49:16
  Like a good fastball.
• 1:49:18
  One strike, no ball.
• 1:49:21
  One out, nobody on.
• 1:49:23
  Sweetitude to Trite.
• 1:49:27
  Necrol's pitch.
• 1:49:29
  There's a high fly ball.
• 1:49:31
  Trite feeling he's out, Kailah waiting and he takes it.
• 1:49:36
  Monday flies to Kailah.
• 1:49:39
  Two up, two down.
• 1:49:41
  Doing not a thing with Necrol.
• 1:49:45
  He's only allowed three hits.
• 1:49:47
  Grancona's a pinch hitter.
• 1:49:49
  Hitting 250, he's had one homer six runs out of them.
• 1:49:55
  Chuck Dobson would be next.
• 1:49:57
  In the seventh inning, three to two Detroit.
• 1:50:06
  Left hand hitter.
• 1:50:09
  Grancona hit one homer this year as a pinch hitter.
• 1:50:13
  Out of pitch.
• 1:50:15
  Strike at the knees and good fastball.
• 1:50:19
  One strike, no ball.
• 1:50:21
  Two men away.
• 1:50:23
  Nobody on base.
• 1:50:25
  Ball game in the seventh.
• 1:50:27
  Good pitch.
• 1:50:29
  Outside.
• 1:50:31
  That evens it up for the ball and a strike.
• 1:50:35
  Grancona batting for green.
• 1:50:38
  Tony LaRusso will take over at second base in the eighth.
• 1:50:43
  One ball, one strike.
• 1:50:45
  the pitch on the way.
• 1:50:47
  Curve of beauty.
• 1:50:49
  Two strikes and a ball.
• 1:50:53
  Two strikes and a ball.
• 1:50:59
  Grancona left handed hitter.
• 1:51:02
  Two strikes and a ball.
• 1:51:04
  the pitch flings and he fouls it back.
• 1:51:07
  Get that one right off his handle.
• 1:51:09
  I've hurt his hand.
• 1:51:11
  Two strikes and a ball.
• 1:51:15
  Grancona waiting at the plate.
• 1:51:21
  Another in first baseman and outfielder.
• 1:51:25
  Two strikes and a ball.
• 1:51:27
  Now the pitch.
• 1:51:29
  Struck him out on a slow curve.
• 1:51:33
  Grancona caught out on strike.
• 1:51:35
  One, two, three, nothing across.
• 1:51:38
  At the end of seventh.
• 1:51:40
  Detroit three, the A's two.
• 1:51:44
  And leading it off there will be Joe Necrow who's pitched an excellent ball game so far.
• 1:51:49
  He's allowed only three hits.
• 1:51:51
  the two runs that were scored were unearned.
• 1:52:04
  Necrow, pretty good hitter for a pitcher.
• 1:52:10
  Dobson's delivery.
• 1:52:12
  Strike a good fast ball.
• 1:52:15
  One strike and a ball.
• 1:52:18
  Remember to stay with us for the postgame wrap-up.
• 1:52:23
  Which will feature an interview and all the other scores.
• 1:52:27
  Ah, the pitch to Necrow.
• 1:52:29
  Strike two a fast ball.
• 1:52:32
  Two strikes and nothing.
• 1:52:35
  Nobody on and nobody out.
• 1:52:38
  the A's welcome 150 fans from Sacramento.
• 1:52:43
  the Johnny McNamara A's fans club.
• 1:52:46
  Here's a curve ball swung on and missed.
• 1:52:50
  Necrow goes down swinging.
• 1:52:52
  That's seven strikeouts for Dobson.
• 1:52:55
  One out here is Dick McCollum.
• 1:52:59
  So the Johnny McNamara A's fans club from Sacramento, some 150 strong is here today.
• 1:53:07
  One out, nobody on, ball game of the A's.
• 1:53:10
  Three to two Detroit.
• 1:53:12
  the pitch to McCollum, a little wide.
• 1:53:16
  McCollum, nothing out of four last night, nothing out of three today.
• 1:53:23
  Chuck Dobson threw two home run balls and that's what hurt him.
• 1:53:27
  Here's a put swing and he missed.
• 1:53:30
  That seventh strikeout gives him his highest strikeout total of the year for any single game.
• 1:53:38
  Listen in left field.
• 1:53:50
  There's a wind up the pitch.
• 1:53:52
  Ground ball up the middle there is the base hit from McCollum.
• 1:53:56
  McCollum ripped the single up the middle.
• 1:53:59
  Dobson may have slowed that ball down with his bare hands.
• 1:54:05
  Here's Cesar Gutierrez, the shortstop.
• 1:54:09
  He's open three so far today.
• 1:54:13
  Al Kaleine would be next.
• 1:54:17
  Dobson getting ready.
• 1:54:23
  To have a chance to pull it out you've got to hold him.
• 1:54:27
  the A's with probably a pinch hitter for Dobson starting the bottom of the eighth.
• 1:54:32
  He's at the top of the batting order.
• 1:54:35
  Throw over the first to run her back.
• 1:54:38
  Gutierrez hitting 224.
• 1:54:42
  Right handed hitter used to be with the Giants.
• 1:54:45
  the stretch the pitch.
• 1:54:47
  Here it is.
• 1:54:48
  There goes the runner swung on line drive.
• 1:54:49
  Center field base hit.
• 1:54:50
  the runner will race the third.
• 1:54:54
  So the hit and run was put on and executed perfectly.
• 1:54:59
  Now here's Kaleine up there.
• 1:55:05
  And it takes a great job of pitching out to get out of this game.
• 1:55:10
  Kaleine is one out of three.
• 1:55:14
  He struck out on the sixth.
• 1:55:20
  He hit into a double play to end the game last night.
• 1:55:25
  It didn't seem like too much to expect to have him do that again.
• 1:55:32
  Runners at first and third.
• 1:55:36
  Out of signal.
• 1:55:37
  the pitch on the way.
• 1:55:41
  Here it is.
• 1:55:42
  High top foul backing out of play into the stand.
• 1:55:45
  One strike and over.
• 1:55:50
  Al Kaleine at the plate.
• 1:55:54
  the first and third.
• 1:55:56
  One away.
• 1:55:57
  Detroit already leading.
• 1:55:59
  Three to two.
• 1:56:03
  the A's is a team of at sixty two homers this year.
• 1:56:08
  Not a stretch.
• 1:56:10
  the pitch.
• 1:56:11
  Her ball outs up.
• 1:56:14
  And the pitching of the staff has given up forty eight home runs.
• 1:56:22
  Willie McCovey's eighteen home run of the year enabled the Giants to beat the Cubs.
• 1:56:27
  Before thirty four thousand in Chicago today.
• 1:56:30
  Here's the stretch.
• 1:56:31
  the pitch.
• 1:56:32
  Kaleine breaks high.
• 1:56:35
  Two balls and a strike.
• 1:56:39
  Chuck Dobson.
• 1:56:42
  Kaleine seeing him for the fourth time today.
• 1:56:49
  Two balls and a strike.
• 1:56:51
  Diego Segui and Paul Lindblad are down on the bullpen.
• 1:56:58
  Two balls one strike.
• 1:57:02
  Get Terrence to lead at first base the punch.
• 1:57:05
  Outside ball three.
• 1:57:10
  Be careful here.
• 1:57:13
  Kaleine will not be taking anything.
• 1:57:16
  Ray Balls one strike.
• 1:57:18
  the ball is in the air.
• 1:57:21
  Runners at first and third.
• 1:57:25
  the stretch the hesitation.
• 1:57:27
  the three one pitch here it is.
• 1:57:30
  Down ball to the left the campanella is up.
• 1:57:32
  the green for what the Larrosa for one.
• 1:57:34
  First throw it off the bag and he saves the run score.
• 1:57:39
  Why give to Terrence a little assist.
• 1:57:42
  He's hobbling as he will.
• 1:57:43
  Lifts off the field now.
• 1:57:45
  He went into Larrosa.
• 1:57:46
  He crowded him.
• 1:57:47
  He succeeded but drew Minter off the back.
• 1:57:51
  There was a chance to get out of the ending with a double play
• 1:57:53
  but we couldn't execute it.
• 1:57:57
  Kaleine drives in a big run.
• 1:58:00
  McCallifus scored.
• 1:58:03
  Campanella has played that ball nicely moving far to his left
• 1:58:06
  near second base.
• 1:58:08
  Flipped it to Larrosa who had his back turned to first
• 1:58:11
  and was getting Terrence really crowding him.
• 1:58:13
  He had a tough pivot.
• 1:58:15
  the catch the stretch the pitch.
• 1:58:17
  High.
• 1:58:21
  One ball no strikes.
• 1:58:22
  Four to two now in favor of the Tigers.
• 1:58:29
  Chuck Thompson getting shot.
• 1:58:33
  the stretch.
• 1:58:35
  the delivery.
• 1:58:36
  High outside.
• 1:58:38
  Ball two.
• 1:58:40
  Two balls no strikes.
• 1:58:43
  Kaleine crowded over the run battered in.
• 1:58:46
  It's twenty ninth of the year.
• 1:58:53
  Two balls no strikes.
• 1:58:56
  Now the stretch the pitch.
• 1:58:59
  Here it is inside ball three.
• 1:59:04
  Willie Horton will be next.
• 1:59:08
  Thompson having a tough eighth inning.
• 1:59:14
  Three balls no strikes.
• 1:59:18
  And Cash might be hitting away if the pitch is good.
• 1:59:21
  the three nothing delivery now time is called.
• 1:59:24
  A hot dog wrapper is going on to the field.
• 1:59:28
  That disturbs Thompson so he calls time to pick it up.
• 1:59:35
  Here's another one floating across.
• 1:59:39
  If he'd have left the other one alone he would have blown off the field too.
• 1:59:43
  Here's this one now he calls time.
• 1:59:45
  Picks up another wrapper.
• 1:59:49
  Three balls no strikes.
• 1:59:51
  Now a balloon starts to blow towards the field.
• 1:59:58
  There's a stretch.
• 2:00:00
  Three nothing pitch.
• 2:00:01
  Here it is.
• 2:00:05
  With three and all Cash was going for it.
• 2:00:08
  But he missed.
• 2:00:09
  And he's really angry at himself.
• 2:00:11
  That pitch was right down the middle.
• 2:00:18
  Cash is really angry at himself for missing it.
• 2:00:21
  Three balls and a strike.
• 2:00:24
  Ready for the pitch.
• 2:00:27
  Here it is.
• 2:00:29
  A wild tip. He didn't mean to do it.
• 2:00:31
  He was taking ball four and it took his bat.
• 2:00:35
  Now it's down to three and two.
• 2:00:37
  Mincher drops back off the bag.
• 2:00:43
  Four to two in favor of Detroit.
• 2:00:47
  the A's have been stopped whole by Joe Negros.
• 2:00:52
  Out of sign.
• 2:00:55
  Ready at the bounce.
• 2:00:59
  the pitch three and two.
• 2:01:00
  There goes the runner.
• 2:01:02
  Here it is.
• 2:01:03
  Ball four.
• 2:01:06
  A pause for identification.
• 2:01:08
  This is the Old Trenade Baseball Network.
• 2:01:11
  And this is KNBR in San Francisco at three thirty.
• 2:01:21
  And here's a game for the Cary Cary and Mani Moore from the ballpark with a run in.
• 2:01:27
  Runners on first and second.
• 2:01:32
  And Diego Cigui is going to be brought in here.
• 2:01:38
  Two thirds innings.
• 2:01:41
  There's no way that he could win this game.
• 2:01:45
  But he could be the loser.
• 2:01:48
  the second and third he struck
• 2:01:52
  out seven he walked only one
• 2:01:57
  and that was a mistake really
• 2:02:02
  should have been out of the
• 2:02:03
  running at the double play but
• 2:02:05
  executed and now the key comes
• 2:02:11
  in with runners at first and
• 2:02:13
  third in the American League the
• 2:02:29
  Yankees moved to it and four and
• 2:02:31
  a half games the first place in
• 2:02:32
  that Eastern Division knocking
• 2:02:34
  off the White Sox three to one
• 2:02:36
  before twenty two thousand
• 2:02:37
  Milwaukee beat Baltimore six to
• 2:02:43
  four the other teams will play
• 2:02:45
  tonight and the city of Boston
• 2:02:48
  rained out so Seguin who did a
• 2:02:54
  fine relief job last night and
• 2:02:56
  turned out to be the winning
• 2:02:57
  pitcher comes in now and let me
• 2:03:04
  get out of this a rally by the
• 2:03:06
  A's and the A's could still make
• 2:03:07
  him the winning pitcher again
• 2:03:14
  tomorrow afternoon the final
• 2:03:16
  game at his home stand last year
• 2:03:20
  Detroit hit 13 home runs with six
• 2:03:23
  games played here there were
• 2:03:28
  blanks in the home run deployment
• 2:03:29
  last night they've hit two of
• 2:03:36
  them today cash it well with one
• 2:03:38
  on the tie up the game and two
• 2:03:41
  and two and then three hand
• 2:03:44
  homers the fifth to give them
• 2:03:45
  the lead that picked up another
• 2:03:46
  run here to make it forward to
• 2:03:52
  Willie Horton comes up with
• 2:03:54
  nothing out of three so far for
• 2:03:55
  the day dangerous hitter is one
• 2:03:59
  of six homers a big crowd on
• 2:04:04
  him the A's hopeful of
• 2:04:08
  rewarding this turnout with a
• 2:04:10
  victory so far they've been
• 2:04:12
  baffled by Joe Negros
• 2:04:15
  Willie Horton stockily built
• 2:04:25
  right hand batter the Seguis
• 2:04:31
  twenty first appearance of the
• 2:04:32
  season out of stretch here's the
• 2:04:39
  pitch one minute he has one two
• 2:04:43
  lost three earn what I have is
• 2:04:45
  three point one six a line and
• 2:04:51
  second base cash at first base
• 2:04:59
  now the side out of left field
• 2:05:04
  and continue to pound those
• 2:05:05
  bats the cattle rhythm the
• 2:05:17
  stretch the best long and
• 2:05:21
  false back the game out of them
• 2:05:23
  here strikes or nothing Chuck
• 2:05:31
  Johnson while he was in there a
• 2:05:32
  home run eight hits and seven
• 2:05:36
  walk one seven and two thirds
• 2:05:38
  in it the two home runs really
• 2:05:41
  hurt two strikes or nothing
• 2:05:50
  Willie Horton dig again those
• 2:05:54
  strikes no ball Diego Segui
• 2:05:59
  and Fernando's apparently not a
• 2:06:02
  grail what they want to throw
• 2:06:04
  Segui is shaking them off two
• 2:06:07
  strikes no ball now he nods his
• 2:06:11
  head he's ready here's the
• 2:06:14
  patch strikes one ball the
• 2:06:30
  Tigers have cashed in practically
• 2:06:33
  every opportunity that I've had
• 2:06:35
  to strike for the ball right
• 2:06:51
  hand hit a wedding now the
• 2:06:54
  stretch here's the first high
• 2:06:58
  and he's up to one to the second
• 2:07:05
  largest crowd in open history
• 2:07:07
  forty eight thousand seven
• 2:07:09
  hundred and fifty eight here
• 2:07:10
  today two balls two strikes
• 2:07:22
  runners at first and second
• 2:07:38
  Segui's pitch here it is file
• 2:07:41
  back into the upper deck and
• 2:07:48
  Willie Horton getting some
• 2:07:50
  pretty good ripples up there
• 2:07:52
  to ball to Segui kicks up the
• 2:07:59
  rubber K line at second base
• 2:08:04
  cash a perfect two balls two
• 2:08:07
  strikes now he is up the two to
• 2:08:20
  pitch here it is line drive in
• 2:08:27
  the center of a another one will
• 2:08:30
  score a line crosses the plate
• 2:08:33
  as Willie Horton lines a single
• 2:08:35
  the center that makes it five to
• 2:08:37
  two here's Jim Nothrapp Segui and
• 2:08:46
  Fernandez seemingly just couldn't
• 2:08:52
  get together and Segui acts a
• 2:08:55
  little upset now Johnny McAmerick
• 2:09:01
  comes off and Lynn Blatt will be
• 2:09:03
  the new pitcher that run is
• 2:09:07
  charged adoption I thought the
• 2:09:12
  40 of run better than Jim
• 2:09:25
  Nothrapp was that two out of
• 2:09:26
  three now many of the spectators
• 2:09:29
  begin to leave you can imagine
• 2:09:40
  the traffic jam might be a little
• 2:09:41
  bit heavy and some of the fans
• 2:09:45
  are maneuvering towards that end
• 2:09:49
  getting out a little earlier
• 2:09:55
  when blood will be facing Jim
• 2:09:59
  Nothrapp a run is in two of them
• 2:10:01
  now in fact and the A's have been
• 2:10:09
  stopped called by Joe Negros
• 2:10:12
  I'll be a pinch hitter to start
• 2:10:13
  the bottom of the eighth none
• 2:10:15
  camp on arrows and then a low and
• 2:10:17
  if anybody gets on Reggie
• 2:10:19
  Stanley comes out as a runner
• 2:10:30
  for Willie Horton I believe
• 2:10:34
  that's what Stanley's going to
• 2:10:37
  run for a heart you come into the
• 2:10:39
  outfield of the defensive move
• 2:10:40
  anyhow no heart is going to stay
• 2:10:43
  in he's running for cash non cash
• 2:10:49
  leaves the game Mickey Stanley
• 2:10:52
  run for a run out partner who
• 2:10:54
  left the diamond going to the
• 2:10:56
  dugout returns his position at
• 2:10:58
  first here's Jim Nothrapp five to
• 2:11:14
  two Detroit the Tigers all this
• 2:11:16
  lead tomorrow's game will be the
• 2:11:18
  rubber game on his own stand
• 2:11:24
  he's got a good lead he swings
• 2:11:28
  in a curve and he misses the A's
• 2:11:32
  lost two out of three to the
• 2:11:34
  Cleveland one two out of three
• 2:11:36
  from Baltimore one last night so
• 2:11:41
  they're born three here's the
• 2:11:42
  pitch outside one ball and one
• 2:11:46
  strike two men are out all the
• 2:11:52
  way to the ground five to two
• 2:11:54
  Detroit the ground has enough
• 2:12:01
  too much to cheer about both
• 2:12:04
  runs of the A's scored runner
• 2:12:07
  one ball one strike the pitch
• 2:12:09
  one on high five all
• 2:12:11
  centerfield deep Monday back
• 2:12:13
  he's got a room waiting for
• 2:12:14
  the A's to retire the side with
• 2:12:25
  three hits nowhere to my luck
• 2:12:28
  we go to the bottom of the
• 2:12:29
  eighth Detroit five Oakland
• 2:12:31
  through well Richfield's done it
• 2:12:33
  now they've come up with
• 2:12:34
  something for the man who has
• 2:12:36
  everything and what can that be
• 2:12:38
  I'll think of something
• 2:12:39
  colorful and handsome something
• 2:12:41
  pocket size and easy to handle
• 2:12:43
  something is honored at over
• 2:12:44
  twenty four thousand service
• 2:12:45
  stations from coast to coast
• 2:12:47
  that it can bring you food and
• 2:12:49
  lodging at over twenty three
• 2:12:50
  hundred hotels and motels or a
• 2:12:52
  car or a truck from any Hertz
• 2:12:54
  agency and what do you come up
• 2:12:56
  with well Richfield came up with
• 2:12:58
  the ARCO credit card the one
• 2:13:00
  that's all those things and more
• 2:13:02
  you see with all its many uses
• 2:13:04
  an ARCO card has still another
• 2:13:06
  built in benefit it's just bound
• 2:13:08
  to reduce the total number of
• 2:13:09
  credit cards any motorist needs
• 2:13:11
  to carry that's good news for
• 2:13:12
  everybody but especially for the
• 2:13:14
  man who has everything it means
• 2:13:16
  he won't have to carry every
• 2:13:17
  card anymore
• 2:13:28
  you change is now for the Tigers
• 2:13:31
  Al Kalin goes into play first
• 2:13:33
  phase Mickey Stanley goes to
• 2:13:36
  center field Jim Northrup moves
• 2:13:39
  over the right field
• 2:13:47
  and Jose Tardy ball will be the
• 2:13:50
  pinch hitter body for Lin Black
• 2:13:55
  hard of all has only about a 10
• 2:13:58
  nine he's got three hits three
• 2:14:02
  out of 10 left handed batter he
• 2:14:06
  can really run the A's who have
• 2:14:09
  been completely silent so far
• 2:14:13
  are hopeful of making a little
• 2:14:14
  noise
• 2:14:44
  this is the largest paid crowd
• 2:14:46
  in the history of Oakland
• 2:14:47
  baseball that 50,000 people here
• 2:14:50
  the first night they played a
• 2:14:51
  major league game but only 47,000
• 2:14:55
  were paid but that's the biggest
• 2:14:57
  paid crowd in the history of
• 2:14:59
  Oakland here's Trotter ball
• 2:15:00
  strike call strike a no ball
• 2:15:05
  Joe Negros is the first to
• 2:15:07
  play in the history of Oakland
• 2:15:09
  baseball strike a no ball Joe
• 2:15:14
  Negros has been bridging all
• 2:15:17
  game at the bottom of the eighth
• 2:15:18
  time is running out now the
• 2:15:21
  delivery to the left hand
• 2:15:22

• 2:15:24
  the second baseman he's got it
• 2:15:26

• 2:15:32
  do a thing with this fella and
• 2:15:34
  here's camp in there he's
• 2:15:36

• 2:15:39
  for base runners to have a

• 2:16:18
  speed more than he used to do
• 2:16:19
  in the National League he's

  the Deny Khumas with 33 onitch
• 2:21:05
  seasoned double play of
• 2:21:06
  the strike.
• 2:21:08
  They grow.
• 2:21:09
  Take a look around.
• 2:21:12
  Right.
• 2:21:13
  Sunshine.
• 2:21:14
  Beautiful day.
• 2:21:18
  Only two hundred.
• 2:21:22
  Forty two.
• 2:21:23
  People.
• 2:21:24
  Left.
• 2:21:25
  Forty nine thousand.
• 2:21:26
  Hey there.
• 2:21:28
  The.
• 2:21:29
  The.
• 2:21:36
  Long drive.
• 2:21:37
  Way back.
• 2:21:38
  19.
• 2:21:39
  20.
• 2:21:40
  That's.
• 2:21:41
  Fire.
• 2:21:42
  Oh, hold on! Holy cow!
• 2:22:03
  And that makes it 5 to 4.
• 2:22:07
  And here comes Mayo Smith.
• 2:22:09
  That may be all for Joe Rico.
• 2:22:19
  They have a left-hander, Hiller.
• 2:22:25
  All warmed up in the bullpen.
• 2:22:28
  Reggie Jackson and Sal Vando and Don Mincer
• 2:22:32
  will still be coming up, perhaps, in the filling.
• 2:22:39
  Oh, that extra run!
• 2:22:43
  They picked up on the 8.
• 2:22:45
  Really hurt.
• 2:22:48
  Now it's a 5 to 4 ballgame.
• 2:22:50
  You have the feeling if you can just hold them.
• 2:22:53
  They're going to get the Negro in the later inning.
• 2:22:56
  Now they knock them out here in the bottom of the 8.
• 2:23:02
  That's the fine game.
• 2:23:04
  That was only the fourth hit off of them.
• 2:23:07
  It was belief I lose.
• 2:23:08
  Took home none of the season.
• 2:23:11
  He now has driven in 29 runs.
• 2:23:14
  He has been to bat 11 straight times without a hit.
• 2:23:18
  Although there were several, especially last night.
• 2:23:23
  Most people thought he should have been cutted in for a loo to hit.
• 2:23:27
  He's been hitting the ball.
• 2:23:30
  Now Hiller comes in.
• 2:23:34
  John Hiller.
• 2:23:36
  One four loss four last year.
• 2:23:39
  27 year old left-hander from Duluth, Minnesota.
• 2:23:44
  Joe Nero, pitch.
• 2:23:47
  Seven and a third inning.
• 2:23:49
  He allowed four hits and four runs.
• 2:23:51
  Two of which run earned.
• 2:23:53
  He walked two.
• 2:23:55
  He struck out four.
• 2:24:00
  There is no way that he could be the losing pitcher of this game.
• 2:24:04
  But of course he could be the winner in the event.
• 2:24:10
  Hiller can stop.
• 2:24:12
  He is.
• 2:24:14
  Reggie Jackson will be facing the hard-throwing left-hander.
• 2:24:17
  Now this has been the Tigers' weakest out here as a bullpen.
• 2:24:21
  Hiller has one three loss two.
• 2:24:24
  He's making his 14th relief appearance.
• 2:24:28
  His earned run average is 3.11.
• 2:24:31
  He's allowed three home runs.
• 2:24:36
  Five to four on the bottom of the eighth.
• 2:24:38
  And Reggie Jackson will be out of the play.
• 2:24:44
  Reggie bounced out double and struck out against Necron.
• 2:24:56
  Still three halfs to go.
• 2:24:58
  He's got a little bit of a lead.
• 2:25:01
  He's got a little bit of a lead.
• 2:25:03
  Still three halfs.
• 2:25:09
  Still three halfs lost out in front of the play.
• 2:25:19
  the foul has really come to life.
• 2:25:24
  Now Hiller is set.
• 2:25:27
  A left-hander fire.
• 2:25:29
  the ball to the left field.
• 2:25:35
  Reggie got around late.
• 2:25:39
  One strike no ball.
• 2:25:42
  Now Bando neck.
• 2:25:44
  Bottom of the eighth.
• 2:25:46
  Five to four to twice.
• 2:25:50
  John Hiller gets ready.
• 2:25:53
  the put on the way.
• 2:25:56
  Outside.
• 2:25:58
  That evens out of the ball.
• 2:26:06
  Miller.
• 2:26:07
  What left out.
• 2:26:09
  Now the wind up the front.
• 2:26:18
  Reggie Jack.
• 2:26:20
  the eighties trailing by a run.
• 2:26:25
  Now the put out away.
• 2:26:30
  Boy.
• 2:26:31
  I think it's on.
• 2:26:32
  Bando.
• 2:26:33
  Coming up.
• 2:26:35
  All the strike on Reggie Jack.
• 2:26:39
  Hitter digging in.
• 2:26:41
  John Hiller gets ready.
• 2:26:45
  Make it be a good ball Reggie.
• 2:26:49
  the run wind up here.
• 2:26:59
  Holy.
• 2:27:04
  Reggie Stanley wasted the center
• 2:27:07
  of the wall.
• 2:27:07
  And Joseph Hanselman is just
• 2:27:09
  where they were combing his
• 2:27:10
  hair.
• 2:27:11
  At the last moment Reggie's hand
• 2:27:13
  up.
• 2:27:13
  He's got the ball in.
• 2:27:20
  Oh that's too good.
• 2:27:25
  And here's Bando.
• 2:27:31
  Just to give you an idea how
• 2:27:33
  deep Stanley was playing.
• 2:27:34
  He only ran about five steps.
• 2:27:37
  Got to the wall.
• 2:27:38
  He's got to the wall.
• 2:27:45
  the put by Hiller.
• 2:27:47
  Last ball out.
• 2:27:49
  One ball no strike.
• 2:27:51
  Come on out now.
• 2:27:54
  Bottom of the eighth with a
• 2:27:55
  score five to four in favor of
• 2:27:57
  the Tigers.
• 2:27:58
  Hiller gets the signal to put
• 2:28:00
  the band all.
• 2:28:01
  Last ball low and outside ball
• 2:28:03
  two.
• 2:28:04
  Two balls no strike.
• 2:28:07
  Good you know Bando will be
• 2:28:08
  coming out looking for the long
• 2:28:12
  ball to tie it up.
• 2:28:15
  John Hiller gets ready.
• 2:28:18
  Here's the ball three is high
• 2:28:21
  and Mr. would be coming up.
• 2:28:28
  Very well.
• 2:28:29
  No strike.
• 2:28:32
  And the one on a three a double.
• 2:28:36
  Bando digs in.
• 2:28:38
  the three nothing put by John
• 2:28:40
  Hiller here it is.
• 2:28:42
  Right down the middle.
• 2:28:46
  A fastball that makes the count
• 2:28:47
  three and one.
• 2:28:53
  No one out nobody on who runs in
• 2:28:55
  five to four to try.
• 2:28:57
  Now Bando waiting.
• 2:29:00
  Here's the delivery.
• 2:29:03
  Bando is on the right like a
• 2:29:07
  shot in the field for a hit.
• 2:29:11
  Bando is on there.
• 2:29:14
  Here's Bob Minter against the
• 2:29:16
  left hander John Hiller.
• 2:29:28
  Really right for the single and
• 2:29:30
  the three and one hit the ball
• 2:29:38
  straight away.
• 2:29:40
  Either side.
• 2:29:42
  It was a clear right away.
• 2:29:44
  Center Mickey Stanley got one up
• 2:29:48
  with the ball with one hand and
• 2:29:50
  all of it.
• 2:29:51
  Bando the runner and one ball no
• 2:30:03
  strike.
• 2:30:04
  Frank Fernandez would be back
• 2:30:07
  out of the eighth inning.
• 2:30:10
  No hit them off left hander.
• 2:30:13
  Here's the hard one ball no
• 2:30:21
  strike.
• 2:30:23
  the threat the put Tom away.
• 2:30:26
  Here it is.
• 2:30:31
  Not even enough for the ball and
• 2:30:33
  a strike.
• 2:30:34
  Bando is a pretty good runner on
• 2:30:36
  an extra base.
• 2:30:36
  Did he have a chance to score.
• 2:30:39
  Al Kalin holding him on at first
• 2:30:41
  base.
• 2:30:45
  Now the stretch the hesitation.
• 2:30:47
  Here's the best.
• 2:30:49
  He doesn't mean to play a
• 2:30:50
  ground ball to the third base.
• 2:30:52
  He's not going to make a play.
• 2:30:58
  the ball hit his body and went
• 2:30:59
  down to third base line.
• 2:31:01
  Maddox got a run to his right.
• 2:31:02
  Knocked the ball down.
• 2:31:04
  Took the play and used Fernandez
• 2:31:05
  as a rule to base hit.
• 2:31:09
  the first batter the time when
• 2:31:12
  it's a second the lead run is a
• 2:31:13
  third.
• 2:31:15
  Fernandez is nothing on a three
• 2:31:16
  for the day.
• 2:31:35
  the off field straight away.
• 2:31:37
  Now a shade towards left against
• 2:31:38
  broadcast by scrub the runner of
• 2:31:48
  figured out by open our practice
• 2:31:56
  hitting the bottom of the
• 2:31:58
  river while theirIONeуй
• 2:31:59
  arelbead
• 2:32:03
  Phillies have good plot his
• 2:32:19
  the ball he's not getting a good
• 2:32:25
  cut at all up there he was
• 2:32:29
  completely full and he just
• 2:32:32
  the ball electric MG is riding
• 2:32:57
  the other way.
• 2:33:00
  Now hella has his fine.
• 2:33:03
  the best.
• 2:33:05
  Oh and hit him.
• 2:33:07
  Hit by a football with two strikes and nothing.
• 2:33:09
  the bases are loaded.
• 2:33:15
  And here's Rick Monday.
• 2:33:19
  He's had one out of two.
• 2:33:21
  Facing a hard throwing left hander.
• 2:33:23
  A base hit now with Jimmy A's the lead.
• 2:33:31
  Tony LaRusso would be next.
• 2:33:33
  But Monday's the big man.
• 2:33:37
  It's two of our bases loaded.
• 2:33:41
  How about a wild catch right about here.
• 2:33:45
  To make sure we at least pass.
• 2:33:47
  the big man.
• 2:33:51
  They play Monday a shade towards the left.
• 2:33:57
  Left hander taking in.
• 2:33:59
  John Hiller gets ready.
• 2:34:01
  He'll push off the full windup.
• 2:34:05
  Now the delivery.
• 2:34:09
  Strike over the inside corner.
• 2:34:11
  One strike and a ball.
• 2:34:13
  the ball inside.
• 2:34:17
  Barrel Anthony to play it up by.
• 2:34:19
  Monday.
• 2:34:21
  Expressing his process.
• 2:34:25
  One strike and nothing bases loaded.
• 2:34:29
  You can see why Mayo Smith kept him in there.
• 2:34:33
  One of them against the left hander.
• 2:34:37
  the pitch on the way.
• 2:34:39
  Right in there.
• 2:34:41
  He's got the ball.
• 2:34:43
  Right back.
• 2:34:45
  Unless he makes a drastic mistake.
• 2:34:47
  They're going to get out of this inning.
• 2:34:49
  Monday was way.
• 2:34:51
  And given ground.
• 2:34:53
  the pitch was right over the middle.
• 2:34:55
  Two strikes and nothing.
• 2:34:59
  Oh for a blooper some place.
• 2:35:01
  Two outs.
• 2:35:03
  Faces down.
• 2:35:05
  Hiller's pitch.
• 2:35:07
  Two runs.
• 2:35:11
  Two runs.
• 2:35:13
  Two runs.
• 2:35:15
  Two runs.
• 2:35:17
  Two runs.
• 2:35:19
  Two runs.
• 2:35:21
  Two runs.
• 2:35:23
  Three hits.
• 2:35:25
  No errors.
• 2:35:27
  Three left.
• 2:35:29
  And at the end of the day.
• 2:35:31
  Detroit five Oakland four.
• 2:35:33
  It's a perfect time for a
• 2:35:35
  standing rally.
• 2:35:37
  Reggie Jackson is Harry.
• 2:35:39
  Described as barely missed a home run.
• 2:35:41
  He really had a tremendous cut in the ball.
• 2:35:45
  This excitement will continue here again tomorrow.
• 2:35:47
  We'll face the left hander named Mickey
• 2:35:49
  Lola to the World Series hero two years ago.
• 2:35:51
  And pitching for the A's will be
• 2:35:53
  our winningest pitcher Jim Catfish Hunter.
• 2:35:57
  That is to start at one thirty here tomorrow
• 2:35:59
  afternoon so you got plenty of time to
• 2:36:01
  get out to the family and church and
• 2:36:03
  sign the school and still get out to the ballgame.
• 2:36:05
  One thirty start time
• 2:36:07
  here tomorrow afternoon.
• 2:36:09
  Remember two weeks from today it's helmet day
• 2:36:11
  here at the Coliseum. Replicas of the A's
• 2:36:13
  batting helmets will be given away
• 2:36:15
  to any kids 14 and under
• 2:36:17
  who come and as a result of
• 2:36:19
  what you can see here today
• 2:36:21
  the largest paying crowd in the history
• 2:36:23
  of the Coliseum and what we had on cap day.
• 2:36:25
  We highly recommend
• 2:36:27
  that you get your tickets in advance before
• 2:36:29
  that two weeks from Saturday game at any
• 2:36:31
  United California Bank or Smith store
• 2:36:33
  or here at the Coliseum.
• 2:36:37
  We'll pause for identification
• 2:36:39
  with the Oakland A's baseball network.
• 2:36:43
  This is Ken Beare in San Francisco.
• 2:36:51
  Harry Carey and Monty Moore
• 2:36:53
  as we go on to the ninth
• 2:36:55
  Marcel Latchman
• 2:36:57
  will be the pitcher.
• 2:36:59
  There's a delivery to
• 2:37:01
  Bill
• 2:37:03
  freehand
• 2:37:07
  outside for ball one
• 2:37:09
  one ball no strike.
• 2:37:13
  Elliott Maddox will be next to pitch by
• 2:37:15
  Latchman inside ball two.
• 2:37:17
  Latchman put three full innings
• 2:37:19
  last night.
• 2:37:21
  Right back out of today.
• 2:37:27
  Two balls no strike.
• 2:37:31
  No fit.
• 2:37:33
  There she goes way back.
• 2:37:35
  It might be out of here.
• 2:37:37
  It could be.
• 2:37:39
  Home run for free.
• 2:37:43
  the game.
• 2:37:45
  And now it's six to four.
• 2:37:51
  the A's had already used the game.
• 2:37:55
  Lindblad are planning to get by today
• 2:37:57
  without much of a grand who's been doing
• 2:38:01
  iron man work.
• 2:38:03
  So they come right back with Latchman
• 2:38:09
  after he put three tough innings last night.
• 2:38:13
  And freehand has just greeted him with a home run.
• 2:38:17
  There's Maddox the pitch.
• 2:38:19
  Bouncing ball to short.
• 2:38:21
  Big hop. Campanair is out of it and throws.
• 2:38:23
  It's not.
• 2:38:25
  One away.
• 2:38:27
  That will bring up the pitcher John Hiller.
• 2:38:31
  Remember we'll have a full run down on all the other baseballs
• 2:38:35
  and feature a post game interview
• 2:38:39
  and a wrap up show.
• 2:38:45
  Here's Hiller.
• 2:38:47
  Five six to four now.
• 2:38:49
  Pave the way.
• 2:38:51
  the pitch.
• 2:38:53
  Inside ball one.
• 2:38:55
  One ball no strike.
• 2:38:57
  Boy a lot of things have been happening in these late innings.
• 2:39:01
  the A's ran two to nothing until the fourth.
• 2:39:05
  One cash and a home run with a man on.
• 2:39:07
  All to not a hill.
• 2:39:11
  Two balls no strike.
• 2:39:13
  And the right hander throws left hander.
• 2:39:17
  And the A's get something going at the bottom of the night.
• 2:39:21
  Now the delivery.
• 2:39:23
  All three.
• 2:39:25
  Three balls no strike.
• 2:39:29
  You wouldn't know Latchman is the same pitcher who pitched last night.
• 2:39:35
  But it's the day time and it's shortly after he worked three tough innings.
• 2:39:39
  Three balls no strike.
• 2:39:41
  the fifth.
• 2:39:43
  Strike call.
• 2:39:45
  Three balls and a strike.
• 2:39:49
  Marsha Latchman got a seed last night.
• 2:39:55
  And allowed only one hit no run.
• 2:39:57
  Three and he's three and he's a pitch strike two with third ball.
• 2:39:59
  Now the count three and two.
• 2:40:03
  the ball is up.
• 2:40:05
  the count up will be next.
• 2:40:07
  Three balls two strikes.
• 2:40:11
  the pitcher John Hiller waiting.
• 2:40:13
  the delivery.
• 2:40:15
  Strike.
• 2:40:17
  Three call.
• 2:40:19
  Hiller didn't offer a single pitch.
• 2:40:23
  There's Dick McCollum who started their two run eighth inning with a base hit.
• 2:40:29
  the ball is up.
• 2:40:35
  Left hand battered.
• 2:40:37
  Digging in.
• 2:40:39
  We'll have La Russa leading off in the night.
• 2:40:41
  Another pinch hit of the Latchman.
• 2:40:43
  the delivery.
• 2:40:45
  McCollum takes a strike over the outside corner of the game.
• 2:40:47
  One strike no balls.
• 2:40:49
  Two out of runners in.
• 2:40:51
  On a home run blast off the bat of Bill Freehan.
• 2:40:57
  Out of bench.
• 2:40:59
  There's a long drive center field back back is Monday back back.
• 2:41:03
  Near the track and he makes it down.
• 2:41:07
  One run one hit no errors nobody left.
• 2:41:11
  And we go to the bottom of the ninth.
• 2:41:13
  Needing a rally to score.
• 2:41:15
  the twice thick Oakland Four.
• 2:41:21
  the Arco Circle.
• 2:41:23
  It's on the north slope of Alaska.
• 2:41:25
  200 miles north of the Arctic Circle.
• 2:41:27
  Finding oil there is hard.
• 2:41:29
  Getting it out of the ground is almost impossible.
• 2:41:33
  the men of Atlantic Richfield do the impossible.
• 2:41:37
  They work 12 hours a day in 45 degrees below zero temperature.
• 2:41:41
  They go through $10 worth of gloves a week and a $30 pair of boots a month.
• 2:41:47
  They work in the dark most of the year.
• 2:41:49
  And they work hard.
• 2:41:53
  Why do they come here to drill for oil?
• 2:41:57
  Well the pay is good.
• 2:41:59
  the food is good.
• 2:42:01
  And besides, nobody ever did it before.
• 2:42:05
  Atlantic Richfield went all the way to Alaska to provide your local Richfield dealer with the finest Arco petroleum products for your car.
• 2:42:13
  Well it's been a tough battle, ma.
• 2:42:23
  And it's not over yet.
• 2:42:27
  Tony LaRusso will lead it off.
• 2:42:31
  Bob Johnson is going to be the pinch hitter for Latchman.
• 2:42:35
  John Hiller.
• 2:42:47
  Who had a few thrills and hard palpitations himself in the bottom of the eighth before he finally got the last out.
• 2:42:57
  He's letting it affect six to four Detroit.
• 2:43:01
  It's going to turn out to be quite a thrilling ball again.
• 2:43:07
  the PHD resistance would be a three run rally in the bottom of the ninth.
• 2:43:15
  the pitch to LaRusso.
• 2:43:17
  Way outside, ball one.
• 2:43:19
  One ball, no strikes, nobody on, nobody out.
• 2:43:23
  LaRusso hitting two oh five.
• 2:43:25
  Tony calls swim right handed batter.
• 2:43:29
  Now the pitch by Hiller.
• 2:43:31
  Right down the middle.
• 2:43:33
  A fastball strike call.
• 2:43:35
  the count evens out a ball and a strike.
• 2:43:43
  Here's Hiller getting ready to pitch on the way.
• 2:43:46
  Curve low and outside ball two.
• 2:43:49
  A base runner would bring up the tying run.
• 2:43:59
  Two balls and a strike.
• 2:44:03
  Time is called, LaRusso steps out of the batter's box.
• 2:44:07
  Three helmets will be given away to everybody 14 and under on Saturday, June the 20th, two weeks from today.
• 2:44:14
  Here's the pitch.
• 2:44:15
  Strike two call.
• 2:44:17
  Now LaRusso's carrying the count down to two balls, two strikes, nobody on, nobody out.
• 2:44:23
  Bottom of the ninth.
• 2:44:24
  the Tigers leading six to four.
• 2:44:28
  John Hiller gets ready.
• 2:44:31
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 2:44:33
  Here's the pitch.
• 2:44:36
  Fly ball easy out.
• 2:44:38
  Mickey Stanley waiting.
• 2:44:40
  One gun.
• 2:44:44
  Bobby Johnson coming out.
• 2:44:50
  Getting 175.
• 2:44:53
  He's had one homer.
• 2:44:59
  That's three and he keeps on his pitchers pretty good.
• 2:45:04
  He's constantly going out reminding him of something or other.
• 2:45:10
  Seems to work with his pitchers very well.
• 2:45:17
  I don't know how well he's going to work with Denny McLean if Denny's read those excerpts from his new book.
• 2:45:24
  Here's the pitch.
• 2:45:25
  Curve ball in there.
• 2:45:26
  Johnson takes the strike.
• 2:45:28
  One strike, no ball.
• 2:45:30
  Hiller in a fine job of reliever.
• 2:45:35
  One man away, nobody.
• 2:45:38
  Here's the pitch.
• 2:45:40
  Way outside.
• 2:45:42
  Hiller isn't very impressive but he's getting them out.
• 2:45:51
  One ball, one strike.
• 2:45:52
  the delivery.
• 2:45:54
  Long and he fouls it back.
• 2:45:55
  He's going to hold two strikes and a ball.
• 2:45:58
  Campy Campaneras will be up there next.
• 2:46:02
  Somebody's got to get on to give Alou another chance.
• 2:46:09
  Two strikes and a ball.
• 2:46:12
  Bobby Johnson.
• 2:46:15
  the pitch to the right hand hitter.
• 2:46:17
  High.
• 2:46:18
  That evens the count.
• 2:46:19
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 2:46:23
  To give you an idea, the Tigers have had ten hits today and have stranded only four men.
• 2:46:29
  Left only four on base.
• 2:46:32
  Now the pitch.
• 2:46:34
  Ball three.
• 2:46:36
  Three balls, two strikes.
• 2:46:38
  Bobby Johnson.
• 2:46:41
  Trying to get on base to bring up the tying run.
• 2:46:45
  Campaneras will be up there next.
• 2:46:48
  Three balls, two strikes.
• 2:46:51
  Now the delivery.
• 2:46:52
  Here it is.
• 2:46:54
  Off the.
• 2:46:56
  Forget about it on the infield.
• 2:46:59
  Get Paris there.
• 2:47:00
  Take.
• 2:47:03
  Now it's all up to Campaneras.
• 2:47:07
  He's got to get on there for to have a chance.
• 2:47:10
  It's six to four in favor of the Tigers.
• 2:47:16
  Bobby Johnson, who had a great season as a pinch hitter last year, is finding out that.
• 2:47:24
  That is the one thing to do to be consistently good coming cold off the bench.
• 2:47:31
  Campaneras.
• 2:47:33
  Coming out of three.
• 2:47:34
  the delivery by Hiller.
• 2:47:36
  A little bit low.
• 2:47:38
  Many of the fans heading to the exits now.
• 2:47:47
  One ball, no strikes.
• 2:47:49
  Leap out low next.
• 2:47:54
  Too low.
• 2:47:55
  At low hit a homer with a man on it and he has to pull.
• 2:47:58
  the A's to within one.
• 2:48:02
  Then freehand hit one of the top of the ninth to make the margin two.
• 2:48:07
  Now to wind up the two nothing pitch.
• 2:48:09
  Ball three.
• 2:48:14
  the lead would be coming up next and then right to Jackson.
• 2:48:19
  All is not yet over.
• 2:48:20
  There are two out.
• 2:48:22
  No strikes on Campy Campaneras.
• 2:48:26
  Here's a.
• 2:48:28
  Right.
• 2:48:30
  All the strike.
• 2:48:35
  He takes a look down the third base line.
• 2:48:38
  Three balls one strike.
• 2:48:44
  John Hiller gets ready to three one.
• 2:48:46
  Here it is.
• 2:48:50
  Campaneras really screams about that one.
• 2:48:57
  He thought it was all for.
• 2:49:03
  Hard to tell from up here of course the three and got the ball freehand.
• 2:49:08
  the ball very low.
• 2:49:10
  Three balls two strikes.
• 2:49:17
  Now Hiller gets ready.
• 2:49:18
  the three two fifth.
• 2:49:21
  All he wants.
• 2:49:27
  He's got to do it again.
• 2:49:33
  And Reggie Jackson will be coming up.
• 2:49:35
  Should the Leaf get on.
• 2:49:47
  Two men are on.
• 2:49:49
  Six to four in favor of Detroit.
• 2:49:51
  the strike over the inside corner.
• 2:49:59
  the pillars.
• 2:50:00
  First strike to most of the hitters.
• 2:50:04
  One strike no ball.
• 2:50:07
  He's got a good fastball on his slider.
• 2:50:10
  Really wait.
• 2:50:12
  the threat.
• 2:50:14
  Way outside of that even though.
• 2:50:26
  John Hiller gets ready.
• 2:50:30
  On the stretch.
• 2:50:32
  the best.
• 2:50:34
  All to outside.
• 2:50:36
  And if he gets on Reggie Jackson representing the winning run would be at the plate.
• 2:50:41
  What a dramatic.
• 2:50:44
  Situation that would be.
• 2:50:46
  Two balls one strike.
• 2:50:54
  We're in the bottom of the ninth.
• 2:50:56
  Six to four in favor of the Tigers.
• 2:51:00
  John Hiller gets ready.
• 2:51:02
  the pitch to the Leaf.
• 2:51:05
  Out up and short center that should be the ball game.
• 2:51:08
  Big family.
• 2:51:16
  We'll be back.
• 2:51:20
  We keep it here.
• 2:51:24
  A hard fight.
• 2:51:26
  But we lost.
• 2:51:28
  Two minutes and forty two hours and forty seven minutes.
• 2:51:33
  And here are the.
• 2:51:38
  Detroit.
• 2:51:40
  Three and two homers.
• 2:51:42
  No cash and another homeowner man.
• 2:51:46
  But there is.
• 2:51:47
  Four other.
• 2:51:51
  They really played long ball here today.
• 2:51:54
  Six runs and his two errors for Detroit.
• 2:51:56
  They stranded only four.
• 2:51:58
  Joe Negro is the winner.
• 2:52:00
  He now has one five and lost five.
• 2:52:04
  And for John Hiller.
• 2:52:08
  It was his second save of the year.
• 2:52:14
  And for the A's it was four runs six.
• 2:52:17
  No errors.
• 2:52:19
  They stranded seven.
• 2:52:21
  Their losing pitcher was Chuck Dobson.
• 2:52:24
  He now has one five and lost six.
• 2:52:27
  Time of the ball game two hours and forty seven minutes.
• 2:52:31
