1960-May-10 • CLE/NYY • Cleveland Indians vs New York Yankees - Radio · Retro Sports Radio: Classic Games from History

• 0:00
  The Cleveland Indians faced the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium for a Tuesday night game on May 10th, 1960.
• 0:06
  The season was still young, but both teams were off to decent starts.
• 0:10
  The Tribe was led by manager Joe Gordon and the Yankees by Casey Stengel.
• 0:15
  Cleveland had been an average team for several years after their historic 111 win season in 1954.
• 0:21
  The Yankees were coming off a disappointing season in 1959,
• 0:24
  having won 79 games and missing the World Series for only the second time in 11 years.
• 0:30
  This audio recording is from the New York Radio broadcast featuring announcers Red Barber, Phil Rizzuto, Mel Allen, and Bob Delaney.
• 1:00
  This is a video for Ken Kacke of the Northern Association Against Jacksonville.
• 1:07
  Casey's debut in organized baseball was with a base hit.
• 1:12
  He had a single, stole a base, but his ball club lost the game 3-2.
• 1:17
  So Casey has seen a powerful lot of baseball in the last five decades and quite an anniversary
• 1:23
  and quite a record that Mr. Stengel has compiled, not only as a manager of the most successful team in baseball,
• 1:31
  the New York Yankees, but also a very fine record as a player.
• 1:37
  Fifty years and so our congratulations to Casey Stengel.
• 1:42
  I wonder if he can remember all the details of that first ball game.
• 1:46
  Johnny Chepa leading off while the Cleveland Indians had their play ball time at Yankee Stadium.
• 1:52
  Billy Short, the young left-hander into the lineup of the first pitch, gets in low, ball one.
• 2:00
  Johnny Temple, right-handed hitter.
• 2:06
  Late his career of course, up until his trade to the Indians with the Cincinnati Red Legs.
• 2:13
  The pitch, fastball is right in for a called strike.
• 2:16
  One and one.
• 2:17
  Temple hits a lot to right fielder, at least he did when he was in the national league.
• 2:25
  The right fielder, frequently playing very shallow and right, I noticed that Maras in right,
• 2:30
  is playing him about straight away.
• 2:32
  He used to hit a great deal into short right.
• 2:35
  The one-one pitch, a let-up, swung on, hit fair, fast third into the corner and left field.
• 2:39
  It's a fair ball and the ball boy almost touched it.
• 2:42
  And here is Temple rolling at his second base with a double.
• 2:45
  That play was almost compounded by the ball boy, thinking the ball had gone foul.
• 2:50
  He almost tried to make a play on the ball.
• 2:54
  It went through his leg and it was not interfered with in any way.
• 2:58
  But that young fellow is feeling mighty low at the moment, but he was fortunate in that the ball,
• 3:05
  which he thought had gone foul, he tried to play and the ball went through his legs.
• 3:09
  But he never touched it.
• 3:10
  The ball caromed off the fence out there and it landed a double anyway.
• 3:18
  Now the Indians have a runner on second and it's time for us now to pick up Red Barber,
• 3:21
  who'll continue the action as the hitter is Harvey Keene.
• 3:27
  The first pitch, low inside ball one.
• 3:33
  Keene, who came to the Tigers, came to the Indians from the Tigers in exchange for Rocky
• 3:37
  Colabito in a very controversial deal.
• 3:45
  The pitch that Keene has swung on hit foul back up this way.
• 3:48
  One ball and one strike.
• 3:50
  Red, I think it's about time we picked you up.
• 3:55
  We have no score, just the beginning.
• 3:57
  The first hitter is the second base, going to come up with a double.
• 4:06
  Red Crest pushing his first base to Cleveland.
• 4:09
  Sergio White pushing his third.
• 4:13
  One-one pitch, here the curve swung on and foul back into Howard's mask.
• 4:16
  And he got it else than also on the right shoulder.
• 4:20
  All right, one ball, two strikes.
• 4:22
  There was a very familiar fellow pitching batting practice tonight for the Indians.
• 4:26
  They just brought him up to do that work for them.
• 4:29
  Ted Wilks.
• 4:31
  He used to be quite a relief man with a shape of a cardinal.
• 4:35
  All right, one ball, two strikes.
• 4:39
  Good luck to second pitchers.
• 4:43
  And Keene pitched a curve low inside ball too.
• 4:46
  Two and two.
• 4:46
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 4:49
  Fifty years ago today out of Tancotillo, Illinois, a young ball player played in his
• 4:53
  first ball game, case a single.
• 4:54
  They got a base hit and stole a base.
• 4:56
  And here fifty years to the day later, over there managing in the Yankee dugout, watching
• 5:02
  these kids out for take on these challenging Cleveland Indians.
• 5:05
  No score.
• 5:07
  Change of pace to call on and left foul back.
• 5:12
  First base, guys can't quite come up to it.
• 5:14
  And it is still two and two.
• 5:16
  It was a good try.
• 5:18
  It was a low foul ball.
• 5:20
  Couldn't quite get back.
• 5:22
  Half step short.
• 5:24
  Folks still coming in.
• 5:26
  The next two days with Cleveland, three, two o'clock.
• 5:34
  Keene holding up that down by the end.
• 5:42
  June 5th, all waiting on deck.
• 5:48
  The pitch is low inside the curve ball.
• 5:52
  Three, three and two.
• 5:56
  Three balls, two strikes.
• 6:06
  Rotation to forearm fire.
• 6:08
  Childlike behind the plate.
• 6:10
  McKinley is at first.
• 6:12
  Stevens at second.
• 6:14
  Holman checks at third.
• 6:18
  Short in his pitching position with the runner.
• 6:20
  Second delivers low ball four.
• 6:24
  So a double by Temple.
• 6:26
  It is followed by a base on balls to Keene.
• 6:30
  And here is Jimmy Pearsaw.
• 6:32
  Who is playing left field tonight.
• 6:34
  For the first time he's ever played at a stadium.
• 6:38
  Pearsaw hitting three or six.
• 6:40
  He just hit his way into the outfield.
• 6:48
  Jimmy Pearsaw made some fantastic catches.
• 6:52
  Red stocks against the Yankees.
• 6:54
  Right hand batter.
• 6:56
  Dinfield has to be looking for the bunt.
• 6:58
  Runner at first and second.
• 7:00
  Nobody out, no score.
• 7:02
  Pearsaw blocks the bunt, takes the low curve, ball one.
• 7:04
  Short has walked a half a dozen in each of his three previous starts.
• 7:08
  Now it's about time to talk to him.
• 7:18
  He's out there talking.
• 7:20
  Down the left hander.
• 7:32
  Not a slow start but the club has been rolling.
• 7:38
  That's you back into right on Pearsaw.
• 7:40
  They're not playing in the hole.
• 7:42
  Temple off second.
• 7:43
  Keene off first.
• 7:45
  Pearsaw swings a ground ball to short.
• 7:47
  Two bucks over to Wickerstand.
• 7:48
  One on the first base into the base.
• 7:50
  The strong can get with it for a double play.
• 7:52
  Temple moves over to third base.
• 7:55
  So they let Pearsaw hit.
• 7:58
  And he hits short curve balls to short.
• 8:02
  And it was two back to Richardson to Scharren.
• 8:05
  You can see that double play was just coming.
• 8:10
  Now we have Woody Hale with short stops.
• 8:13
  Who's been generating a lot of power for the Yankees hitting three or two.
• 8:17
  He has 19 hits.
• 8:19
  Most hits on the club by Big Power who's the on deck batter.
• 8:24
  Hale has hit the home runs for the club.
• 8:26
  He's hit Fritz.
• 8:27
  He represents the only home run power in this starting batting order.
• 8:31
  That's an oddity.
• 8:33
  All right, no score.
• 8:34
  Two out.
• 8:37
  Hale the right hand batter.
• 8:39
  Over the close stands.
• 8:41
  Swings to the curve and lands it off Scharren.
• 8:43
  Short down the right field corner.
• 8:45
  Temple scores.
• 8:46
  Hale is on his way around first.
• 8:47
  Headed to second base.
• 8:48
  Marich is up for the ball.
• 8:49
  And Hale comes in standing with a double.
• 8:52
  That was a Wicket Line drive.
• 8:54
  Scharren started over to the line.
• 8:55
  Just did ticket for the end of his glove but he didn't even slow it down.
• 8:58
  So despite the double play the Indians have scored.
• 9:01
  And Hale about to end his sixth run.
• 9:06
  His fourteenth run.
• 9:08
  That's the most on the club.
• 9:10
  And Big Power is better than 12 and has the most hits with 25 is that.
• 9:13
  Power has always been a tough hitter for the Yankees to get him out.
• 9:19
  So double the right for Hale.
• 9:22
  RBI, Power, in a severe crowd, right hand hitter.
• 9:26
  Swings and hits a foul ball out of play back of first base.
• 9:29
  It's 1-0.
• 9:30
  Play for the Indians.
• 9:36
  That field is back into right on Power.
• 9:43
  Third base coach Joe Joe White keeps reminding Hale to second base to get going on anything.
• 9:48
  Two out.
• 9:58
  Short is ready to pitch.
• 10:00
  He does.
• 10:02
  A strike.
• 10:03
  Breaking ball on the outside corner.
• 10:05
  That was his change.
• 10:06
  He took a little off the fast ball and you could see the ball sink.
• 10:10
  No ball, two strikes.
• 10:16
  Nothing in two.
• 10:22
  Two strike pitch.
• 10:23
  Swung on and bounced back over the mound.
• 10:25
  Slowed it to shortstop.
• 10:26
  Kuvec has to hurry and he can't make the play and they get Hale over running third.
• 10:30
  And they throw to Mike Duggo, it's Ron Hage, they run him back and Hale is out.
• 10:34
  Kuvec came in on the slow bounder that bounced over the pitcher.
• 10:38
  If the base hit a single and when Kuvec saw he couldn't make the play at first base,
• 10:42
  he very wisely didn't even attempt to throw, looked up and Hale had gone a step around third base.
• 10:46
  So he threw to Mike Duggo and then in the ensuing run down he was out to Mike Duggo to catch a howler back to Mike Duggo again.
• 10:52
  So Power, a single to short.
• 10:56
  And it is one run on three hits, one man left.
• 11:02
  Hale was caught in the run down over running.
• 11:07
  Shortstop to the third baseman to the catcher to the third baseman.
• 11:15
  A lot of action in the top of the first inning.
• 11:18
  A lot of base running but the double play really was the key to keeping the Indians from having a big inning.
• 11:24
  Came up with three hits but scored only one.
• 11:26
  Three hits and a base on balls.
• 11:28
  Double play ball plus head work on the part of Tony Kuvec kept the Indians from causing more trouble than they did.
• 11:38
  Here's Kuvec and Perry, the fast ballers first pitch breaks inside ball one.
• 11:43
  Perry is a long angular boy standing well over six feet tall who broke in so dramatically against the Yankees last season striking out the side in a relief appearance.
• 11:55
  The next pitch is swung on a full foul into the seat and right field.
• 12:00
  Tony really came around on that and laced it sharply in among the spectators well down the right field foul line.
• 12:11
  Defensively it's Strickland at third.
• 12:13
  A shortstop is what he held.
• 12:15
  Johnny Temple is at second.
• 12:16
  At first is Vic Power.
• 12:18
  Kersol is in left.
• 12:19
  Hardy in center.
• 12:20
  Keene in right.
• 12:21
  Romano catching and Perry's pitch just a little bit high.
• 12:24
  Ball two and strike one.
• 12:32
  This is an all young pitching staff for Cleveland.
• 12:38
  Pitch, first one on line in the right field.
• 12:40
  The base hit for Kuvec.
• 12:41
  He may go for two.
• 12:42
  He is turning to the left his first.
• 12:44
  Here is the throw from Keene and he's in there for a double.
• 12:48
  Tony makes it ten straight games as he puts the tying on promptly at second base.
• 12:54
  And apparently after a day off both these ball clubs have come out here swinging.
• 12:59
  The Indians weren't scheduled for one but they got it because of the weather in Boston yesterday.
• 13:03
  So Tony now gets his hitting string into the double figures.
• 13:11
  One nothing Cleveland.
• 13:14
  And the batter is MacDougall.
• 13:25
  MacDougall hitting it to 59.
• 13:31
  Gill made that play just now to get the third out top the first inning possible by staying put at third base.
• 13:38
  So infielders and outfielders have got to always know where they should be on each play.
• 13:47
  Of course if you don't watch them you don't notice that they're doing it.
• 13:55
  Kuvec leading down on second.
• 13:58
  There's a curve over for a called strike by MacDougall.
• 14:01
  Nothing in one.
• 14:04
  Jim Perry pitching.
• 14:05
  John Romano catching.
• 14:06
  Big power at first base.
• 14:08
  Johnny Temple.
• 14:10
  That's the big fellow they got in the winter from Cincinnati's at second.
• 14:12
  Woody Hall is at short.
• 14:13
  And the third baseman is George Strickland.
• 14:17
  The strike one puts to MacDougall.
• 14:19
  The curve hits foul.
• 14:21
  Almost got the first base coach Ralph Houch.
• 14:23
  But he turns away from it.
• 14:24
  Ball goes on down.
• 14:26
  Strike two.
• 14:28
  Jerry Piaf-Sol is in left field. Carol Hardy is in center and Harvey Keen is in right.
• 14:37
  Over all, two strikes.
• 14:42
  Cassetti coaching at third base.
• 14:44
  Ralph Houch at first.
• 14:55
  The right hander delivers a fast ball that is foul tipped.
• 14:58
  And it's Nick Chilack that played umpire primarily on his chest protector, outside chest protector.
• 15:08
  One nothing Cleveland and the Yankees have had Kuvec lead off five out of eight games with a base hit.
• 15:15
  And this one is a double so the tying runs at second base.
• 15:22
  Three of the games in the American League are tonight.
• 15:28
  The two-strike pitch, fast ball that is foul tipped, and it hits Chilack in the chest protector again.
• 15:34
  That's the successive pitches that he has been hit.
• 15:37
  You know, that chest protector doesn't exactly absorb at all.
• 15:44
  I think this last one shook up Nesta.
• 15:51
  Walked in a small circle there for a few seconds.
• 15:55
  Boom, boom. And now a pair of emotions for Romano to come out.
• 15:58
  Romano is the catcher that they got from the White Sox.
• 16:12
  Now Chilack is going out to break up this meeting between the pitcher and the catcher and saying,
• 16:17
  let's go, fellas. Big night game. A lot of fine folks there in the stands.
• 16:29
  All right, nothing and two.
• 16:33
  Mike Dugle, splash stands.
• 16:41
  Perry checks the run at second pitch. And Gill swinging, hits the ball foul down on the right field corner.
• 16:47
  Still two strikes.
• 17:00
  Perry is 6'4", 185 pounds.
• 17:06
  So when we say it's all right, Henry, we do mean it.
• 17:19
  Perry in position. Two bags left going off second.
• 17:22
  The pitch is swung on to the high fly ball off the pier saw in left field.
• 17:26
  He's waiting for it, waiting for it. He has it.
• 17:30
  So we have one up.
• 17:35
  But now it's Mickey Maddell who hits the face in the first 13, batting 321.
• 17:55
  Maddell gets a big hand, steps in against this Cleveland right-hander.
• 18:00
  Two bats left-handed.
• 18:03
  That field is deep and around toward right.
• 18:12
  Perry takes the sign from Romano.
• 18:19
  The pitch, back ball inside, low, ball one.
• 18:26
  He gets straightened above that.
• 18:35
  One nothing, play for the Indians.
• 18:39
  The pitch is high and inside, ball two. Two and up.
• 18:52
  Two balls, no strikes. First base is open.
• 18:55
  Back of Maddell is Maris, then Scharron, then Bella, then Howard.
• 19:04
  And right now Maris is the hottest hitter in either big league.
• 19:08
  Pitch is a curve, inside, ball three. Three and up.
• 19:17
  Two balls, no strikes.
• 19:29
  Mickey waiting.
• 19:35
  Perry gets all set. Pitch is outside, ball four.
• 19:48
  And Maddell, Maddell is just 15th walk.
• 19:53
  That goes along with 18 hits.
• 19:57
  Roger Maris, hitting at 458.
• 20:03
  Maris goes out to talk with Perry.
• 20:07
  Maris has 10 hits to his last 18 official at bat.
• 20:10
  That's a clip of 566.
• 20:12
  He's reached base safely 14 times in his last 21 appearances.
• 20:15
  That's a clip of 667.
• 20:20
  So there he is.
• 20:22
  Now, it's a one-nothing game for Cleveland.
• 20:24
  The Yankees pressing back with Manett first and second.
• 20:27
  One out, first inning.
• 20:29
  Maris with a left-hander.
• 20:32
  Swings and does not get a high curve ball.
• 20:35
  Strike one.
• 20:37
  Maris started out his major league career with Cleveland.
• 20:41
  He was dealt from Cleveland to Kansas City.
• 20:43
  And then he was the big man that the Yankees traded for this winter.
• 20:47
  So far he's really made that trade stand up.
• 20:53
  Perry checks the lead runner, Kubek, at second.
• 20:55
  Delivers a curve that's hung on a miss.
• 20:57
  Strike two.
• 20:58
  That was a low inside curve.
• 21:02
  He started him with a high slider.
• 21:05
  Didn't break much, but it broke quickly.
• 21:07
  And then he came back with a big curve ball on his side.
• 21:10
  Now he's got him two quick strikes.
• 21:16
  Perry's taking his time.
• 21:18
  He's holding the ball between both bare hands.
• 21:20
  Now he slips on the glove.
• 21:22
  Holds the ball behind his back as he takes the sign.
• 21:24
  Comes down out of his stretch.
• 21:26
  Check second.
• 21:28
  Head bob.
• 21:30
  Pitches.
• 21:31
  A fast ball high inside, as it is ball one.
• 21:35
  Now we've got around the bill of the cap.
• 21:39
  One ball, two strikes.
• 21:46
  Kubek at second, Maddly at first.
• 21:49
  One nothing.
• 21:50
  Played with the Indians.
• 21:53
  That'll not happen so far in this first inning.
• 21:59
  The pitch is swung on far back.
• 22:05
  That was a fast ball that seemed to me to be on the inside, hand high.
• 22:09
  Now he's had to protect the plate.
• 22:17
  The Indians had two doubles, a walk, and a single first inning, and only got one run.
• 22:37
  Now he walks off the mound.
• 22:41
  He's got a bit of a strategy when he gets a couple strikes on the head to let him wait.
• 22:47
  Some pitchers do that.
• 22:49
  One and two.
• 22:54
  He throws to first, and Maddly's back.
• 22:57
  That was a step flying.
• 22:59
  I don't know who gave the sign, but somebody did.
• 23:03
  Power broke.
• 23:04
  He was deep.
• 23:05
  You see, with a runner at second base, Maddly had to come back in on his chest, slide forward with his hand.
• 23:10
  Well, I bet you that Hog jumped a foot when he saw that play start.
• 23:17
  Right, one ball, two strikes.
• 23:21
  Now Rick's waiting.
• 23:22
  Maddly's box, left hand hitter.
• 23:25
  The six foot four inch right-hander delivers the curve.
• 23:28
  Swung on a broken back, the puck fly, and he has automatically added him to the infield fly roll,
• 23:35
  and the hitting part of the bat flew into the stands.
• 23:39
  I would say a dozen rows back of the Yankee dugout.
• 23:42
  Right now the spectators are looking to see if the bat struck anyone.
• 23:47
  Of a bumping Bill Fowler.
• 23:49
  He must have hit Maris right on the fist, as they say, and snapped off that bat,
• 23:55
  because the hitting part went over in the stands back of the Yankee dugout,
• 23:58
  all the Yankees on the top of the step looking back in.
• 24:03
  The pop fly went to the shortstop, and for the protection of the runner, the infield fly was invoked,
• 24:07
  and Maris is automatically out.
• 24:10
  And apparently nobody was hurt.
• 24:13
  The spectators are a little waving over there while the bat went.
• 24:16
  And here is the mighty Moose scouring up, two down, and there's a call strike.
• 24:22
  He buzzed that one over the inside hand high.
• 24:24
  Scour hitting at 333.
• 24:28
  Now, correct, scour hitting at 400.
• 24:31
  26 hits, and he's about at in 20.
• 24:36
  One nothing Cleveland.
• 24:40
  Scour pitching very deliberately.
• 24:44
  Since Kubeck opened up one in with a double, he gets Tony Stiller's second, and Madeline at first.
• 24:51
  Scour and swing to the curve, strike two.
• 24:58
  No balls, two strikes.
• 25:04
  And he's looking at the rear of Pitcher's mound, pulling with a rossin' bag, looking at the day.
• 25:12
  Lugs up the ball.
• 25:15
  And that is certainly his pattern. If he gets two strikes on the hitter, he's going to make him white.
• 25:20
  All right, now Jim Perry up on the mound.
• 25:27
  Another headbutt check at second Pitcher, the curve, that is foul back.
• 25:33
  Scour, strike two.
• 25:36
  The lights on for the first night game of the season at the stadium.
• 25:41
  This is the start of a big series.
• 25:45
  Big for both ball clubs.
• 25:47
  We'll see you again in the next two afternoons, Wednesday and Thursday.
• 26:06
  Perry delivers and strikes out on a fastball up by his man.
• 26:10
  Defending, he's simply overpowering, and he got out of the jam, Kubeck opened with a double, and never got off second base.
• 26:16
  One run, one hit.
• 26:19
  Well, friends, in the first inning we have had an aggregate of four hits, three of them doubles, two bases on balls,
• 26:26
  and yet out of it has only emerged one run, which Cleveland possesses.
• 26:31
  So the score at the end of the first inning is Cleveland one and New York nothing, and let's pause for space identification.
• 26:37
  You are tuned to 1460 on the radio dial. This is WOKO, Albany, New York.
• 26:42
  We're in the 15 seconds on the WOKO clock, 8.30. Temperature is 58 degrees.
• 27:05
  Let's check the other ball games for you. Young Bill Short gets ready to pitch the second inning of his fourth major league star.
• 27:11
  Chicago has started at Boston, Wynn versus Casale, and the White Sox didn't score that first flick.
• 27:18
  Kansas City, Baltimore, all against Wilhelm, and at the end of an inning and a half it is one-nothing in favor of the Athletics.
• 27:24
  And at the end of the first inning, Detroit at Washington, Mosley versus Clemenger, it is no score.
• 27:29
  Detroit has lost its last hit. Philadelphia, San Francisco, Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, I doubt it will have much on that for you.
• 27:36
  Chicago, Post-Pon, what's around, and this is the fifth straight post-ponement at Wrigley Field, Chicago.
• 27:44
  They just lost the whole series with the Milwaukee Braves. That's rough.
• 27:48
  Now we have John Romano, right-hand hitting catcher, much promise that the White Sox gave up in the Monosha deal.
• 27:58
  Takes a call strike from Short. The left-hander delivers a change of pace, but the short makes it hold it in the glass.
• 28:05
  A line drive that if you hadn't caught it in the glove would have hit him at the point of his right shoulder.
• 28:11
  He just stuck the glove up there, and there she was. He pikes you.
• 28:19
  Now we have George Strickland, the veteran infielder who returned after a year's absence from baseball last year and what's third.
• 28:29
  He used to be the shortstop at Cleveland in his younger days. In fact, when Cleveland last had a pennant winner who played in the World Series against the Giants, he was the shortstop.
• 28:40
  Pikes the pitch inside, ball wide.
• 28:46
  Strickland hits a high pop fly. Second baseman Richardson is on Rick.
• 28:51
  He's got it. I know you think it was over there how important to take it, but pitch is short.
• 28:56
  He's directing things out there in the middle of that dam.
• 29:00
  All right, two up, two down. A line drive and a pop fly.
• 29:04
  One-nothing Cleveland, and the hitter is the young outfielder, and the center fielder is a nice girl, Hardy.
• 29:09
  He hit one for six. Strickland wanted that one for six.
• 29:25
  Pitch is the curve ball over for a soft strike, and when it looks as though Hardy might have had a bump notion, short was off that mound like a rabbit starting for the third baseline.
• 29:39
  Nothing and one.
• 29:49
  Hardy right hand batter swings and grounds his foul. Strike two. There's an outside breaking ball.
• 29:57
  The ball is retrieved, but to Childlike for inspection, he passes inspection and continues as the ball in play.
• 30:07
  And nothing and two.
• 30:23
  Short deals outside. Ball one. One and two.
• 30:30
  I thought Tommy Holmes in the Hilltrip Bien this morning had a very fine story about this young pitcher and about the Yankee pitching staff, his present status.
• 30:41
  One-two pitch, change of pace, swing on and hit foul down in the left field stand. Down in the corner. One and two.
• 30:59
  Hardy spent most of last year at Seattle, but part of it was Cleveland.
• 31:10
  This was a fellow that was a big football star among the Colorado.
• 31:15
  One-two pitch, swing on and a high foul out of play, back of the Yankee dugout.
• 31:21
  He out holds one and two. Two out. Bases clear.
• 31:43
  One-two pitch is on the ground ball, hits to Skowin who's up with it and Hardy is out. He's swinging late.
• 31:51
  And the score at the end of an inning and a half remains Cleveland one and New York nothing.
• 31:57
  And Yogi is hitting at 333.
• 32:02
  Left hand batter.
• 32:10
  He's got to feel around toward right.
• 32:15
  Yogi takes a pitch low inside, ball one.
• 32:19
  I'm watching where Johnny Temple is playing. He's pretty well over toward first base and at the edge of the grass.
• 32:25
  We were interviewing him before the ball game down in the dugout.
• 32:28
  He's a very pleasant and intelligent spoken young man.
• 32:31
  Pitch high outside ball two and he volunteered the information that it was real tough to come over into another league.
• 32:37
  So you didn't know the pitches, how to hit at them, how big their curves are, how hard they threw the ball,
• 32:43
  and also that you just did not know how to play the different hitters.
• 32:48
  But he's working at it he says.
• 32:52
  And he is ready to pitch the ball to an out does and it's over fastball for a called strike.
• 33:08
  First to the last and second in England.
• 33:10
  One nothing Cleveland. Yankees at bat.
• 33:12
  Dallas Swings has a high foul that is close to the stands and back behind the vistas dugout.
• 33:19
  We told you that the White Sox did not score their first lick up at Boston.
• 33:27
  Well the Red Sox have not been retired in the last of the first inning but Vic Wirtz has hit a grand slam home run.
• 33:42
  He's having his troubles getting going this year.
• 33:49
  Two and two to Yogi.
• 33:54
  He's got a lot of ideas, a curve that's come out of the high five ball to deep right Tennessee.
• 34:20
  And now it's Boston Howitz.
• 34:24
  He's getting through 18 but he's better than 15.
• 34:31
  Right hand hit him, over the close stands.
• 34:33
  Feet pretty well spread out.
• 34:36
  Takes the fastball too low.
• 34:37
  Ball one.
• 34:46
  Half swing and a foul back.
• 35:05
  One and one.
• 35:20
  Make no mistake this Cleveland club has some fine young arms.
• 35:26
  And they took the gamble when they traded Michael Ashton the winner that the young fellows could do it.
• 35:30
  Fastball is in there, strike two.
• 35:45
  One ball, two strikes.
• 35:58
  Very deal.
• 36:00
  Misses with the fastball low inside to the knee.
• 36:15
  Two and two.
• 36:18
  One out, nobody on left for second.
• 36:22
  That's how it works.
• 36:30
  And Howard is out.
• 36:32
  Now we have Trudeau and Bobby Richardson stepping in.
• 36:37
  Byron's hitting a 2-17 but he's moving up.
• 36:45
  He's had five hits in his last 13 official trips.
• 36:49
  I feel shades him a step into left.
• 37:02
  Very deal.
• 37:03
  The Curbs went on to the line drive foul into the seats behind first base.
• 37:14
  Folks over there have been kept looking, they've had a couple of line drive fouls and half of a bat.
• 37:23
  Nothing in one.
• 37:33
  Very delivers, snaps it right over.
• 37:36
  All strike two.
• 37:38
  He's very tall, 6'4".
• 37:40
  He's quite lean and he is very loose.
• 37:43
  Trudeau's into his full pitching motion and pumping when there's nobody on.
• 37:48
  You can tell he means it.
• 38:02
  He's got a curve outside, a foul one.
• 38:22
  Trudeau taking his time with two strikes on the bat, two out.
• 38:34
  Good deal.
• 38:52
  Curbs went on, foul back again.
• 39:10
  One, two pitches, a fastball's going on, he's going back, back, back, back on, makes the catch.
• 39:22
  So we have an afternoon game.
• 39:26
  Jim Perry leads off as we go to the top of the third inning.
• 39:33
  Short's first pitch to Perry is swung on and lofted into right center field, Mantle moving over and has plenty of time to make the catch.
• 39:41
  He reached across the plate, got under the ball, pops it up into comparatively shallow right center field.
• 39:49
  One out and that brings the top of the order up again.
• 39:52
  Johnny Temple, who opened the game with a double and came around to score the one run the Indians were able to get in the first inning,
• 39:59
  despite the fact that they got three hits, a base on balls.
• 40:05
  A double play, however, nullified the chance for a big inning and then a cutoff play, a third base, in which a man was trapped, finally retired the side.
• 40:14
  The call strikes to Temple.
• 40:17
  He's going off to find stock for Cleveland.
• 40:20
  He has 19 hits for 73 at bats.
• 40:23
  Good shape in 10 straight now.
• 40:29
  Right hand batter. Swing then, fouls the ball to the upper spades like a first base.
• 40:35
  Johnny knows that he is small as players go. He doesn't try to hit the ball out of the park.
• 40:39
  He doesn't want to park this size.
• 40:41
  He's a sharp hitter.
• 40:43
  Fine fielder, quite a competitor.
• 40:47
  And the word down to Cleveland dugout is that he has become the boss man of that infield.
• 40:54
  Unofficial captain.
• 41:00
  A two strike pitch. Swung on, grounded down, two short, two back from the holes, and throws him out by two strikes.
• 41:07
  So we have two down as the Yankees' young left-hander Bill Short continues working.
• 41:15
  He doesn't act like a rookie out there.
• 41:22
  Here's Harvey Keene, who's a hard fellow to fool and a tough man to pitch to and got a base on balls in the first inning.
• 41:29
  Keene is hitting 300 on the nose right now. He's his last year's batting champion.
• 41:40
  He's inside breaking ball, ball one.
• 41:48
  On ball, no strikes.
• 41:54
  Keene is standing way back in the box with the right hand hitter. He's far back if he can go.
• 42:01
  Pitch outside, ball two. He hit.353 last year.
• 42:08
  And on the Sunday before the season opened, he and Califito were traded even up.
• 42:15
  That news was a detonation in both towns.
• 42:20
  Keene was in there for a called strike. Two and one. Two balls, one strike.
• 42:33
  Harvey missed some games early in the year for a bad leg. He's quick to change his face outside, ball three.
• 42:40
  We were asking him before the game began how the leg was, and he says considerably better.
• 42:46
  Gathered by that, that he's not completely well, but he's playing.
• 42:54
  All right, three and one.
• 42:58
  The pitch is high outside, ball four. And Keene draws his second walk.
• 43:03
  On the two walks, given up by short.
• 43:07
  And this gets Jimmy Pearsall at the plate. Pearsall came into the game hitting a.306 in the first inning with Keene at first and Temple at second.
• 43:14
  He cracked into a double play.
• 43:17
  Engineered by Kuback and pivoted on by Richardson and finished the scoundrel.
• 43:25
  That was the 16th Yankee double play. One nothing Cleveland.
• 43:29
  Fair blow inside, and it is ball one.
• 43:33
  They're giving Pearsall the gap in left center. They're not playing into throw very much.
• 43:39
  And now there's quite a ways open in the right center field.
• 43:45
  Nice as he steps back toward the line.
• 43:51
  Pitch is hung on to the ground ball to Kuback. Goes a short wait a second to Richardson to get the force on Keene.
• 43:59
  Two. No runs. No hits. One last.
• 44:04
  No errors. And the score, end of two and a half innings tonight. First night game of the season at the stadium. The Indians won and the Yankees nothing.
• 44:11
  How do you feel about the man who lubricates your car? In a completely unrehearsed interview, one driver expressed his feelings.
• 44:21
  Short swings as he throws from the left side.
• 44:27
  Very big wind up in his first pitch inside ball one.
• 44:42
  Here's the one-oh pitch. Taken right in there for a called strike one and one.
• 44:50
  That's ball fouled off.
• 45:03
  Sorry, put it in a rather leisurely looking fashion.
• 45:08
  Deals and it is strike three. Gave him a quick little curve. Put him out. Second strike out.
• 45:16
  One down. Now here is Kuback who doubled in the first inning.
• 45:21
  But never got off second base.
• 45:25
  They are setting the outfield a step toward right on Tony.
• 45:29
  Now they're moving it back.
• 45:32
  They're moving hard. He backed over into left center field and giving Kuback the gap in right center.
• 45:38
  Right down in there for a strike. He's throwing center of his curve balls. He's throwing everything pretty hard.
• 45:51
  He's had a good strike out record since he's been a professional pitcher.
• 45:54
  There's a fastball thrown on and hit high toward right side of Hardy going back. He's under it.
• 46:02
  Two down. One nothing Cleveland.
• 46:14
  Mike Gugel, oh for one, hit a fly ball left field the first inning.
• 46:20
  Moves in and Mantle steps in the on deck hitter's circle.
• 46:29
  No shading Gill into left.
• 46:34
  Pitches a low curve. Too low. Ball one.
• 46:47
  One ball. No strikes.
• 46:58
  Right handed deals a curve over.
• 47:01
  That was on the target. One and one.
• 47:16
  Fastball thrown on and hit out of the right field. Keen backing up.
• 47:20
  Backing up and has it.
• 47:22
  For the third out. Third is nothing across and totaled at the end of three. Cleveland one three all for New York 0 1 0.
• 47:30
  And before Rizzuto comes along let's pause for station identification.
• 47:37
  You are tuned to 1460 on the radio dial. This is WOKO Albany, New York.
• 47:47
  And WOKO clock is now four and one half minutes before the hour of nine. Temperature is 58 degrees.
• 47:56
  OK Bill. A moment ago I saw that Short had to pull his back foot out of the way from a curveball. Almost hit him.
• 48:03
  What's this tale you tell about swinging at a pitch that did hit you?
• 48:06
  Yes that's true. I did swing at a pitch one time and it hit me and I thought I'd be allowed to take my base.
• 48:12
  But the umpire told me that I was wrong. I thought you swing no matter what happens to the ball it's a strike.
• 48:17
  Do you remember who threw the curve?
• 48:19
  No I don't know. Let me see.
• 48:21
  Want me to help you?
• 48:22
  Yeah go ahead.
• 48:23
  Bobby Shantz?
• 48:24
  Oh man and he's got oh now I remember. Oh that's when little Bobby was in his heyday boy. He was the MVP in the American League pitching for the Philadelphia Athletics.
• 48:34
  And he still got a good curveball but he had a dandy then.
• 48:39
  And we've got a dandy of a ball game going on right now between the Indians and the Yankees with Cleveland leading 1-0 here in the top of the fourth.
• 48:47
  And coming up to Batman who drove in the only run of the ball game Woody Hale with a double of right field driving in Johnny Tempo.
• 48:54
  Billy Short out on the mound.
• 48:58
  A left hander ready. Kicks delivers a curveless high ball one.
• 49:04
  Woody's off to a good start.
• 49:08
  20 base hits and 64 times at bat. That was his first double of the year. He has a triple and six home and 14 runs batted in.
• 49:17
  Pitch is inside and low ball two. Two and nothing.
• 49:23
  On deck Vic Parr.
• 49:36
  Here's the windup by Short. Curve hit deep to right field but curving far.
• 49:43
  And Woody Hale has plenty of power.
• 49:48
  To all fields.
• 49:54
  Leading the Indians in homers and RBI.
• 50:02
  Two balls one strike on a power hitting shortstop. Slow curve is on the outside corner. Ball strike two. Two and two the count.
• 50:09
  Nesta Shiloh calling balls and strikes. Short goes to the Rosenberg.
• 50:16
  Yogi Barrett deep in left field. Mammoth not too deep in center.
• 50:20
  Marist deep in right.
• 50:26
  The pitch is hit on the ground to the right side. Skaren backhands the ball. Nice play. Flips the short. In time to get held.
• 50:34
  A fine play by Bill Skaren. Takes the base hit away from Woody Hale.
• 50:39
  And the cheering that went up just moments before Hale hit that ball. Today marks Casey Stengel's 50th year in baseball.
• 50:47
  Casey broke into pro ball.
• 50:50
  May 10th 1910.
• 50:53
  Wow he played center field for Tanki Kia the Northern Association against Jacksonville.
• 50:58
  Casey had a single, stole a base but his team lost three to two.
• 51:01
  Matter of fact Stengel batted fourth that day.
• 51:04
  Ball one outside to Vic Power. Power beat out an infield single.
• 51:08
  And on a heads up play by Tony Kuback. A fake throwing the first base. Woody Hale rounded third and a hung held up between home and third. He was thrown out.
• 51:21
  One nothing pitch. Slow curve. He's in there for a called strike one on one. And Vic Power has got a puzzle look on his face.
• 51:27
  He was walking up on that pitch and just couldn't wait.
• 51:31
  And the ball floated right by him about felt high.
• 51:38
  Power just swings the bat back and forth. Real low then crouches.
• 51:44
  Here's the one one delivery. Another slow curve popped in the air. In short left field. Yogi coming in fast.
• 51:50
  And makes the catch.
• 51:54
  Yogi got a good jump on that Texas Laker. Hit right off the end of the bat by Vic Power.
• 52:00
  And caught it on the dead run. Kuback didn't have a chance for it. Two away.
• 52:04
  And it brings up Johnny Romano the catcher.
• 52:07
  Who almost tore Billy Short's right arm off with a vicious line drive back through the box.
• 52:12
  Short stuck his glove up in self protection and the ball landed right in the pocket. Didn't know he had it. Was hit so hard.
• 52:25
  Two out. Nobody on. Cleveland one. Yankees nothing. Top of the four.
• 52:30
  On deck George Strickland.
• 52:33
  Here's the first pitch to Romano. Fastball inside. Ball one.
• 52:47
  This is the fourth major league start.
• 52:50
  For Billy Short and of course his first against the Indians. First time they've faced Cleveland this year.
• 52:56
  Clear for the ground. A third. McDougall on one hop. Goes to Scaran and that's all for Cleveland.
• 53:04
  Yankees have been restricted to one hit over the first three innings. Mantle and Maris.
• 53:10
  And Mooscaran.
• 53:13
  The power part of the Yankee order. The first pitch. Mantle takes a pitch outside. Ball one.
• 53:20
  The Indians pick their run up in the first inning.
• 53:27
  On three hits and a base on balls. A double play sandwiched in between. The next pitch. Up high.
• 53:32
  Ball two. Mantle has not seen a strike tonight. He walked on four pitches his first time up.
• 53:51
  Mantle two and all. Play pitch. Curveball he gets it over. Call strike two and one.
• 54:11
  Alright here's the two one pitch. Mantle takes inside. Ball three. Three and one.
• 54:19
  About a year ago almost to this day that Jim Perry came in from the bullpen. Pitched a tremendous relief appearance against the Yankees.
• 54:28
  And that started him on his great freshman year. But then we remember him as a hard throwing right hand and now he's mixing up his space.
• 54:36
  The pitch is hit high in the air to a straight away center field.
• 54:40
  Carol Hardy the center fielder moving under it and making the catch. Ball was hit so high that Mantle was all the way down a second before Hardy caught the ball.
• 54:49
  That's how high he hit it. But that's the wrong part of the park to hit it in and Mickey knows it.
• 54:56
  Perry has got the Yankee hitters hitting the ball in the air.
• 55:03
  The only ground ball they have hit was a slow hopper back to the mound. Elston Howard hit that in the second inning. The rest have been fly balls and two strikeouts.
• 55:13
  Here's Roger Maris. He takes a curveball. Ball one. Roger fouled out to the shortstop in the first inning.
• 55:19
  He ended up with just the handle of his bat in his hand and the barrel of his bat went over the Yankee dugout and hit a fan but not hard. Just grazed him.
• 55:27
  In the last row of box seats there's a foul off Maris's leg and that one hurts. Roger is not rubbing but I know it hurts.
• 55:35
  He hit it right down off his right leg. One and one on Maris.
• 55:47
  Maris came into the game leading the majors in hitting with a 4.58 average.
• 56:03
  One one pitch inside ball two. Two and one. Perry is trying to crowd Maris with that fastball and curveball. On deck is Bill Scaran.
• 56:28
  Here's the two one pitch. It's a little bit low for ball three. Three and one. One out, nobody on. Cleveland leads one nothing. We're in the bottom of the fourth inning.
• 56:51
  Here's the three one delivery. It's fouled back on the screen and it sticks in the screen.
• 57:01
  About three rungs from the top. It sticks right up in there.
• 57:10
  Full count on Maris. Ready for the payoff pitch. Here it is. It's fouled back and in the mezzanine. Fans are having a lot of fun tonight with these foul balls and there have been plenty of them.
• 57:25
  There's a lot of this crowd here but it would have been a lot bigger had the weather been nicer during the day. A lot of people shied away because of the forecaps. The curve inside ball four he lost them.
• 57:41
  That's the second walk given up by Jim Perry.
• 57:55
  Perry had retired nine men in a row since mantle walk in the first inning up till the walk to Maris right now.
• 58:03
  Here's Bill Scowren who struck out in the first inning. Mick Powell holding first base against Roger Maris on deck Yogi Berra. One out infield and double play depth. Strickland guarding the third base foul line.
• 58:15
  Pitch to the Mooses. Strike one is swinging a mess at a fast ball. And Perry really blazed that one in.
• 58:23
  Scowren steps back out of the box. Now Moose back in ready to go. Frank Crissetti coaching at third and Ralph Hogg down at first for the Yankees.
• 58:41
  Perry sets checks Maris throw to first. Roger back. Rick Powell who is really a fancy fielding first baseman. He can do magic with that first base glove.
• 58:55
  Again the stretch. Pitch is strike two is swinging a mess and that was a bad high fast ball.
• 59:04
  Moose again steps back out of the box. Played on by Anesta Shallock. That's her home plate. Now Scowren is back in.
• 59:13
  Seems a little puzzled by the fact that Perry's still in the fast ball by him.
• 59:20
  Nothing in two on Scowren. One away.
• 59:26
  Perry sets again. Pitch curve hit on the ground to third and foul. Backhanded by George Strickland as Perry tried a sidearm scowren with a curve ball but the Moose was ready.
• 59:51
  Cleveland one Yankees nothing in the bottom of the floor.
• 1:00:02
  Here's a stretch. Quick throw to first Maris back in plenty of time.
• 1:00:16
  Pitch to Scowren a high pop to the infield. Vic Powell is coming in the first baseman in foul territory. Makes the catch.
• 1:00:24
  Vic came almost all the way into home plate to make that catch.
• 1:00:29
  And Romano realizing how good power is with the glove. Let him have it. Here's Yogi Berra. Yogi fly deep to center in the second inning.
• 1:00:39
  Two out. And you can see that Perry is pretty fast and as we told you before only one ground ball has been hit by the Yankee batters.
• 1:00:50
  All the rest have been up in the air.
• 1:01:00
  Two out. Maris leading off first base.
• 1:01:10
  Strike a fastball on the inside part of the plate.
• 1:01:14
  On deck Elton Howard swinging a couple of bats around.
• 1:01:29
  Here's a stretch by Perry.
• 1:01:34
  Pitch to Yogi. Popped in the air to the infield. Vic Powell. No now George Strickland the third baseman calling for it near the mound and makes the catch and he almost dropped it.
• 1:01:43
  Perry was yelling for power to take it but it was on the third base side of the pitcher's box.
• 1:01:49
  And another pop up by the Yankee batters. Perry blazing that fastball in making them pop it up for the Yankees in the bottom of the fourth.
• 1:01:56
  No runs. No hits. No Cleveland errors. One man left and a score at the end of four full innings. Cleveland won and the Yankees nothing.
• 1:02:06
  George Strickland who popped to Richardson in the second inning of the batter.
• 1:02:15
  Pretty short out of the mound. The left-hander's first pitch is a curve inside ball one.
• 1:02:24
  Cleveland got all three of their heads off short in the first inning. Two doubles and a single to score their one run.
• 1:02:33
  Yankees have one base hit. Got a double by the lead off of the Coober. Pitch is a strike call on the outside corner.
• 1:02:41
  Carol Hardy on deck.
• 1:02:56
  Here's the one-one delivery. Slow curve is in there. Strike two call.
• 1:03:02
  You know from here, from the stands that change up curve looks easy to hit but when you're up there at the plate
• 1:03:08
  expecting a fastball or a fast breaking curve, that seems like it's stuck on your shoulder. You just can't break it away.
• 1:03:19
  Pitch outside ball two, two and two.
• 1:03:31
  Nobody out, nobody on here in the top of the fifth. Cleveland leads one-nothing.
• 1:03:39
  The two-two delivery is lined inside first base. It's going down the corner for extra bases.
• 1:03:46
  Strickland starts for second and then comes back.
• 1:03:51
  As Roger Maris really feel of that ball quickly. It was deep in the right field corner inside Skaran and first base.
• 1:03:59
  And yet Maris got over there and timed the whole Strickland to a long single.
• 1:04:07
  Hit number four for the Cleveland Indians.
• 1:04:13
  Strickland at first and Gil McDougal coming over to talk with Billy Shaw.
• 1:04:19
  And that is Cal Hardy who bounced to Skaran in the second inning.
• 1:04:32
  Nobody out, Moose holding first base against Strickland. Here's a stretch.
• 1:04:37
  Inside ball one, Gil McDougal playing in at third.
• 1:04:55
  Cal Hardy, the right hand hitting center fielder, takes a curve over for a called strike one-on-one.
• 1:05:13
  JoJo White coaching at third base and Red Crest over at first for the Indians.
• 1:05:20
  Johnny Temple is on deck but Jim Perry is due to be the next batter. Perry's not a bad hitting pitcher.
• 1:05:30
  Short set, slow curve hit down to McDougal on one hop. Gil goes to Richardson for one, back to first. Double play.
• 1:05:43
  And that's as deep a double play as you'll ever see as McDougal's feel of that ball. Just in fair territory.
• 1:05:50
  When he threw it he was in foul territory. The long throw to Richardson who's quick really at a first nip.
• 1:05:55
  Hardee who can go down the line.
• 1:05:59
  That's the second double play of the ball game for New York.
• 1:06:02
  And here's Jim Perry. Perry flying to center field in the third inning.
• 1:06:14
  That was the 17th double play of the year for the Yankees. Perry takes a pitch low outside ball one.
• 1:06:29
  Perry holds that bat right down on the end.
• 1:06:34
  Curve low, ball two, two and nothing.
• 1:06:43
  Two balls, no strikes, two outs. Nobody on top of the fifth. Cleveland won, the Yankees nothing.
• 1:06:48
  First meeting of the year for these two teams.
• 1:06:53
  They met in spring training but I mean regular season play. There's a fastball just above the knees for a called strike.
• 1:07:17
  Short ready to wind up.
• 1:07:19
  Fastball line to left field has a base hit. Yogi feels the ball on two hops and Perry's on with a line single to left.
• 1:07:31
  That's the fifth hit off short.
• 1:07:34
  And it brings up Johnny Temple who opened the ball game with a double.
• 1:07:38
  Just inside third base.
• 1:07:41
  Came around a score on hell's double down the right field line.
• 1:07:49
  Temple got away to a slow start with Cleveland but now he's picking up.
• 1:07:55
  Over 250. He was under 200 for quite a while.
• 1:07:59
  Perry put the jacket on down at first base. Garland playing in back of the bag. There were two men out.
• 1:08:20
  On deck Harvey Keynes.
• 1:08:32
  Nothing in one to count on Chapel.
• 1:08:36
  Pitch, low ball one one one.
• 1:08:45
  Fido Francona one of the leading hitters on the Indians with a 317 average not in the lineup tonight.
• 1:08:51
  I know the Yankees are quite happy about that.
• 1:08:55
  Last year he ruined them in many a ballgame with some long base hits and timely singles.
• 1:09:01
  One on one the count. Slow curve hit.
• 1:09:03
  Just outside of third.
• 1:09:06
  And the ball boys up with that one on Temple's first double the ball boy tried to feel the ball went right through his legs.
• 1:09:11
  Had he touched the ball it would have been an automatic double and the umpire at third base Jim Honachek told the youngster don't get too excited or over excited when a ball's in play.
• 1:09:21
  Never go after it. And of course you can't blame the kid down there.
• 1:09:25
  Who wouldn't be excited being the ball boy at a big league ballgame.
• 1:09:31
  One ball two strikes two outs. Jim Perry down at first base.
• 1:09:39
  Here's a stretch by Billy Short. Fast ball low inside ball two two and two.
• 1:09:47
  Cleveland leads one nothing here in the top of the fifth.
• 1:09:51
  Billy Short goes to the Rosenberg and Elston Howard calls time and goes out to the mile.
• 1:10:10
  Yankees have Barron left Mandlin center and Marison right and here comes Casey Stengel out of the Yankee dugout.
• 1:10:17
  There could be something bothering Billy Short.
• 1:10:22
  Yeah.
• 1:10:25
  He heard his arm.
• 1:10:27
  The umpire Mr. Schallach signaled and pointed to his left arm to tell the Cleveland bench.
• 1:10:34
  That there was something wrong with short pitching arm.
• 1:10:38
  And in the event the Yankees have to bring in a pitcher he will be allowed as much time as needed to warm up ordinarily when a relief pitcher comes in.
• 1:10:45
  He's allowed just eight pitches.
• 1:10:47
  And so Casey is walking out to the mound a little more now and it looks like he's going to call for somebody out of the bullpen.
• 1:11:02
  So Jim Perry takes advantage of the break here and is walking slowly towards the Cleveland Indian dugout as is Johnny Temple.
• 1:11:10
  Oh is the battle with a 2 2 count on him it's two out Cleveland means one nothing.
• 1:11:15
  And that would really be a tough break to the Yankee pitching call with whitey Ford having a sore elbow and Bob Charlie who has been out for quite some time.
• 1:11:30
  And it looks like Bullock Bob might be coming out to the mound just talking about Charlie who has been out quite some time from the last time he pitched.
• 1:11:44
  So Billy Short.
• 1:11:47
  Suddenly comes up with a little something wrong with his pitching arm.
• 1:11:52
  Let's hope it's nothing serious Bob Charlie who has made just one appearance he started at Boston on April the 20th.
• 1:12:01
  He was a losing pitcher he pitched just two innings gave up four hits and three walks and five runs.
• 1:12:10
  So Charlie.
• 1:12:14
  Making his second appearance of the year.
• 1:12:19
  It's been almost three weeks.
• 1:12:23
  Since Bob Charlie last pitch in the ballgame and here comes Billy Short off the mound and he gets a wonderful hand from the crowd here.
• 1:12:35
  He has pitched real good ball in every game that he's been in for the Yankees.
• 1:12:39
  He's won two and lost one.
• 1:12:42
  And in the ballgame that he lost it was a heartbreaker down in Baltimore.
• 1:12:47
  He lost that one two to one and Short drove in the only one of the game for the Yankees that night.
• 1:12:55
  We can take another look at the scoreboard while we've got the time.
• 1:12:59
  At the end of two and a half the Red Sox are still leading the White Sox 4 to nothing.
• 1:13:02
  Early Wendell is having a rough time of it this year looking for his first win of the year.
• 1:13:07
  He's in there for the White Sox and Vic Wurtz had a bases loaded homer up early in the first inning.
• 1:13:12
  And then there's Marcel who is yet to lose this year is on the mound for the Red Sox.
• 1:13:17
  Kansas City is leading Baltimore 10 to nothing at the end of five and a half innings all for Kansas City.
• 1:13:23
  Wilhelm started Fisher in the fifth for Baltimore.
• 1:13:26
  Vic Williams home in the fifth with the bases loaded so that's two bases loaded homers already this night.
• 1:13:31
  And Detroit and Washington nothing nothing at the end of four and a half.
• 1:13:34
  Morsey against Clevenger.
• 1:13:36
  Tigers trying to break their losing streak.
• 1:13:40
  They've lost 10 in a row up till tonight.
• 1:13:43
  The National League Philadelphia San Francisco and Pittsburgh at Los Angeles start later on.
• 1:13:48
  Cincinnati and Chicago postpone and that's a fifth straight postpone game for the Cubs at home.
• 1:13:53
  St. Louis and Milwaukee not scheduled.
• 1:14:11
  There is a rule here in the rule book for some of you who are interested.
• 1:14:15
  The count is two and two two balls and two strikes.
• 1:14:17
  And it says in the rule book that if when pitches are changed and the count is two and two charge that batter and his action to the relief pitcher.
• 1:14:26
  In other words should Charlie walk this man he would be charged with the walk.
• 1:14:33
  Or if he should strike him out Charlie will get the strike out.
• 1:14:36
  Now that also goes at the count as one ball two strikes one ball one strike one ball no strike.
• 1:14:41
  Or no ball two strikes and no ball in one strike.
• 1:14:49
  So this batter is Bob Charlie.
• 1:14:53
  Regardless of the count it's two and two.
• 1:15:02
  Jim Perry comes out of the Cleveland dugout back to first base.
• 1:15:07
  And Johnny Temple stepped out and comes into the batter's box.
• 1:15:11
  Double checking the count with a play on fire.
• 1:15:14
  That's the child like that's the holds up two fingers on each hand to and to the count.
• 1:15:19
  Yogi Bear on left field has been talking to some of the fans.
• 1:15:23
  That's Yogi's favorite past time.
• 1:15:29
  So it's good to see Charlie back on the mound.
• 1:15:33
  Perry leading off first two men out one nothing Cleveland leads here in the top of the fifth a stretch by Charlie.
• 1:15:39
  That is low gets away from Howard but it is next to Charlotte's foot and stays right in McAvely a break for the Yankees.
• 1:15:47
  And that Perry would easily have gone down to second base had the ball not hit Charlotte's right foot.
• 1:15:53
  Full count now on Johnny Temple and of course with the pitch being two out Perry will be gone.
• 1:16:22
  I had a full count on Johnny Temple.
• 1:16:24
  Here's a stretch by Charlie.
• 1:16:26
  Perry leading away.
• 1:16:27
  There he goes.
• 1:16:28
  The pitch is low outside ball four.
• 1:16:31
  And that walk is charged up against Bob Charlie.
• 1:16:37
  Perry down to second temple of first and here's Harvey Keene who has walked twice tonight.
• 1:16:42
  Has not been up officially.
• 1:16:46
  Keene remains at a 300 batting average the way he entered the game 15 for 50.
• 1:16:50
  Three doubles and three runs batted in.
• 1:17:08
  All right here's a stretch by Charlie.
• 1:17:11
  The pitch to Keene is a strike ball the fastball right down the middle.
• 1:17:18
  On deck is Jimmy Pierce.
• 1:17:26
  Harriet second temple at first.
• 1:17:29
  Nettle shading Keene over and right center field.
• 1:17:32
  Maris not too deep and right.
• 1:17:34
  Yogi straight away and left.
• 1:17:38
  That's what hit in the ground to back to his left.
• 1:17:50
  Go back out in front of the ball that was ready to flip it to Bobby Richardson.
• 1:17:54
  When the ball kicked off his glove between his legs.
• 1:17:57
  All hands are safe the bases are loaded.
• 1:18:00
  And here's Jimmy Pierce all who has been up twice and bounce to the shortstop both time.
• 1:18:11
  That was the first error in the ballgame.
• 1:18:17
  On deck Woody Hill.
• 1:18:23
  Charlie will now go to his regular wind up the pitch to Pierce all the pop in the air to short left field.
• 1:18:31
  Yogi Barrett coming in signaling for it.
• 1:18:38
  And the funny thing whenever balls hit the left field everybody stands up to see if Yogi is going to catch it.
• 1:18:44
  But he did and for the Indians in the top of the fifth no runs on one base hit.
• 1:18:50
  One Yankee era to hit rather.
• 1:18:54
  One Yankee era and three men left on base.
• 1:19:14
  In the bottom of the fifth inning Elton Hard Bobby Richardson and Bob Charlie will be coming up to face Jim Perry.
• 1:19:27
  Perry is being allowed a few extra warm up tosses because of the delay.
• 1:19:37
  Now he's ready the Indians fire the ball around the infield and Elton Hard who hit back to the box in the second inning the batter.
• 1:19:44
  Alley is the only Yankee who has hit the ball on the ground in this ballgame.
• 1:19:54
  One nothing the Indians leading the Yankees here in the bottom of the fifth.
• 1:20:22
  This is a curve one and a miss right one one one.
• 1:20:38
  One one delivery hit in the air to short center field.
• 1:20:53
  Bobby Richardson fly the left field in the second inning a leadoff hitter for the Yankees double that was Tony Kubeck and Jim Perry has stifled the Yankees big bad since then.
• 1:21:14
  Here's the pitch to Richardson check swing outside ball one.
• 1:21:33
  There's a ball popped in the infield what he held the shortstop is moving under it and makes the catch.
• 1:21:45
  And here's Bob Charlie.
• 1:21:57
  Nobody on Cleveland one Yankees nothing bottom of the fifth.
• 1:22:12
  First pitch to Charlie is a curve over for a false strike.
• 1:22:26
  Right inside ball one one one.
• 1:22:44
  One pitch is a curve over for a false strike to.
• 1:22:56
  Here's the wind up.
• 1:22:58
  Well, that's the first strike up up at the Yankees go down one to three nothing across and the bottom of the set and the score of the end of five for Lenny for Cleveland one run by hitting no errors and for the Yankees no runs one hit and one error.
• 1:23:22
  top of the sixth what he held
• 1:23:24
  who double the right to drive
• 1:23:26
  in the only one of the ballgame
• 1:23:28
  when he drove in Johnny Temple
• 1:23:32
  that was in the first inning and
• 1:23:33
  in the fourth inning he bounced
• 1:23:35
  out to build scar.
• 1:23:37
  Charlie's first pitch is a ground
• 1:23:39
  ball.
• 1:23:39
  Kubeck to his right up with a
• 1:23:41
  long throw in center for the
• 1:23:43
  out.
• 1:23:43
  That was a nice play by Kubeck
• 1:23:46
  who went deep to his right.
• 1:23:48
  Came up with a short hop to throw
• 1:23:50
  out what he held out one away
• 1:23:53
  has that power beat out an
• 1:23:54
  infield single and then fly to
• 1:23:55
  left here.
• 1:24:04
  Our leads the Indians in batting
• 1:24:10
  into the game batting three
• 1:24:11
  thirty eight Johnny Temple who
• 1:24:18
  doubles the lead off the ball
• 1:24:19
  game.
• 1:24:20
  Crease his consecutive game
• 1:24:22
  hitting three to ten in a row
• 1:24:29
  first pitch to the car is popped
• 1:24:31
  in the air right in front of the
• 1:24:32
  plate.
• 1:24:33
  Right around near the pitches
• 1:24:34
  box McDougal under it and make
• 1:24:36
  the catch right on the mound.
• 1:24:40
  The ball went up it looked like
• 1:24:41
  it was going to be right in
• 1:24:41
  front of all plays but it
• 1:24:44
  carries.
• 1:24:44
  So that's two pitches and two out
• 1:24:52
  Johnny Romano line back to the
• 1:24:54
  box in the second inning and
• 1:24:55
  bounce the third and the fourth
• 1:24:56
  pitch to Romano you have nobody
• 1:25:12
  on first pitch to Romano with a
• 1:25:16
  strike.
• 1:25:17
  So two outside normal fairly
• 1:25:24
  assault.
• 1:25:25
  Three pitches this inning to
• 1:25:28
  men out in the first one a call
• 1:25:29
  Ramon.
• 1:25:43
  Up in the air.
• 1:25:45
  Now it's amazing.
• 1:25:46
  But it looks like it's going
• 1:25:47
  back into the stands out of play
• 1:25:49
  after this.
• 1:25:50
  And a fan put his coat up and
• 1:25:51
  it hit in the coat.
• 1:25:52
  But it didn't stay and look like
• 1:25:54
  it went right through the
• 1:25:55
  sleeve.
• 1:25:57
  Once then and back up third base
• 1:25:58
  try to catch it with his hat a
• 1:25:59
  little while ago.
• 1:26:04
  They don't try and catch him
• 1:26:05
  with their bare hands.
• 1:26:07
  Easy way to get a broken finger.
• 1:26:10
  Nothing and true on Ramon.
• 1:26:12
  Two out and nobody on.
• 1:26:13
  Cleveland won Yankees nothing.
• 1:26:14
  Top of the fifth inning.
• 1:26:33
  Charlie into the windup.
• 1:26:35
  There is a little bit high ball
• 1:26:36
  on one ball to strike one ball
• 1:26:55
  to strike pitches like three
• 1:26:57
  playing after a high fastball
• 1:27:00
  and Charlie really fired that
• 1:27:02
  high on one which is a good time
• 1:27:04
  for Cleveland in the top of the
• 1:27:05
  sixth.
• 1:27:06
  No runs no hits no Yankee errors
• 1:27:08
  nobody left the score at the end
• 1:27:10
  of five and a half innings the
• 1:27:11
  Yankees one rather Cleveland
• 1:27:13
  one and the Yankees nothing.
• 1:27:20
  Did you ever see a great
• 1:27:21
  baseball player who didn't
• 1:27:22
  practice course.
• 1:27:24
  But it takes two things talent
• 1:27:26
  and practice to make a good ball
• 1:27:27
  player.
• 1:27:28
  You know it takes two things to
• 1:27:29
  make a great beer.
• 1:27:31
  A lightness is fine but
• 1:27:33
  lightness alone won't do it.
• 1:27:34
  To really refresh a beer must
• 1:27:37
  have lightness plus flavor and
• 1:27:39
  that's your cue to ask the man
• 1:27:41
  for the crisp refresher
• 1:27:42
  Valentine beer.

  You see Valentine proves to more
• 1:27:46
  people every day that a beer can
• 1:27:48
  be light and still give you all
• 1:27:50
  the lager beer flavor you want.
• 1:27:53
  The fact is Valentine is a light
• 1:27:55
  beer with two lager flavor and
• 1:27:58
  it's delicious light lager flavor
• 1:28:00
  is what makes Valentine beer the
• 1:28:02
  crisp refresher.

  So if you drink beer for taste
• 1:28:06
  and refreshment then Mr.
• 1:28:08
  Valentine's a beer for you.
• 1:28:10
  Try it.

  See for yourself why
• 1:28:12

• 1:28:13
  beer from Maine to Florida.
• 1:28:16
  The largest selling beer in the
• 1:28:17
  East.
• 1:28:18
  Treat yourself to the crisp
• 1:28:19
  refresher right now.
• 1:28:24
  Report on Billy Short is that he
• 1:28:26
  felt a slight strain throughout
• 1:28:27
  the game in his elbow.
• 1:28:29
  Didn't get any better while he
• 1:28:30
  was pitching so he decided to
• 1:28:31
  stop pitching.
• 1:28:32
  And right now it's not thought
• 1:28:34
  to be too serious.
• 1:28:37
  Billy felt that there was
• 1:28:38
  something not quite right even
• 1:28:40
  though he was pitching a good
• 1:28:41
  ballgame and he was wise enough
• 1:28:43
  to call a halt.
• 1:28:45
  I Tony Kugel hits the ground
• 1:28:47
  ball at second base Johnny
• 1:28:48
  temple up with it on the first
• 1:28:49
  pitch over the big power one
• 1:28:51
  away.
• 1:28:54
  Kugel is the only man to have a
• 1:28:55
  base hit against Perry so far
• 1:28:57
  tonight.
• 1:28:59
  One out is Gil McDougal slide
• 1:29:01
  to left and fly to right and
• 1:29:02
  that's only the second ball hit
• 1:29:03
  on the ground off very in the
• 1:29:05
  ballgame.
• 1:29:10
  On deck Mickey Mantle.
• 1:29:25
  Very takes time to go back to
• 1:29:26
  the rosin bag.
• 1:29:43
  Are you having a little trouble
• 1:29:44
  reading Ramon O'Shaughnessy.
• 1:29:46
  Now he's got it.
• 1:29:48
  One one pitch curve low outside
• 1:29:50
  ball to two one.
• 1:30:05
  Here's a two one delivery
• 1:30:07
  strike to swing in the midst at
• 1:30:09
  a high curve ball.
• 1:30:10
  Gil walks all around the play.
• 1:30:11
  That's his usual straw.
• 1:30:20
  Two balls two strikes one out
• 1:30:21
  nobody on.
• 1:30:24
  Leave them one Yankees nothing
• 1:30:25
  bottom of the sixth.
• 1:30:31
  Pitch is hit on the ground.
• 1:30:33
  Why the third backhanded nicely
• 1:30:34
  by Strickland but the foul sign
• 1:30:37
  given by third base umpire Jim
• 1:30:39
  Hunter said.
• 1:30:54
  Two and two on go.
• 1:31:05
  Pitch strike three he checked
• 1:31:09
  his swing but the ball had part
• 1:31:10
  of the plate.
• 1:31:12
  He pulled the string on McJugel
• 1:31:16
  for his fourth strike out of the
• 1:31:17
  ballgame.
• 1:31:19
  And here's Mickey Mantle.
• 1:31:21
  Mickey has walked and fly to
• 1:31:23
  the bottom of the plate.
• 1:31:35
  Two men out.
• 1:31:45
  Pitch is a strike call.
• 1:31:46
  Mickey had walked out of the
• 1:31:47
  box didn't ask for time.
• 1:31:49
  And remember you must ask the
• 1:31:51
  time Mickey just walked out of
• 1:31:53
  the box and Harry went right on
• 1:31:55
  through with the pitcher was a
• 1:31:56
  curve over the plate and played
• 1:31:58
  on by and that's the child like
• 1:31:59
  this strike one and Mickey was
• 1:32:00
  standing outside the batter's
• 1:32:01
  box watching it.
• 1:32:07
  There's a wind up pitch inside
• 1:32:09
  ball one one a mark.
• 1:32:17
  Something you very seldom see
• 1:32:20
  in a batter's step out of the
• 1:32:21
  box and pitch a pitch and get
• 1:32:24
  the ball over.
• 1:32:34
  Harry shakes off one time.
• 1:32:37
  He's got the one one one pitch
• 1:32:39
  is popped in the air to left
• 1:32:40
  field Jimmy Piazol moving in
• 1:32:43
  under the ball and makes the
• 1:32:46
  catch for the third out.
• 1:32:50
  So for New York in the bottom of
• 1:32:52
  the six no runs no hits no
• 1:32:53
  Indian errors nobody left in the
• 1:32:54
  score at the end of six full
• 1:32:55
  innings Cleveland one in the
• 1:32:57
  Yankees nothing and Harry has
• 1:33:00
  retired eight men in a row he
• 1:33:02
  had retired nine men in a row
• 1:33:04
  before he walked Roger Maris in
• 1:33:06
  the fourth inning and since he
• 1:33:07
  walked Maris he's retired eight
• 1:33:08
  men in a row.
• 1:33:10
  So he is really pitching a
• 1:33:12
  tremendous game for the
• 1:33:13
  Cleveland Indians.
• 1:33:17
  Another look at the scoreboard
• 1:33:18
  in the American League at the
• 1:33:19
  end of three innings now the
• 1:33:20
  Red Sox scored another run they
• 1:33:21
  lead five nothing win against
• 1:33:23
  Kassel but now in the fourth
• 1:33:27
  inning Roy Severs home it and
• 1:33:29
  Al Smith home and with a man on
• 1:33:30
  so it's a five to three ball
• 1:33:32
  game and Sullivan has come on to
• 1:33:35
  relieve Kassel a white doctor
• 1:33:37
  still batting in the top of the
• 1:33:38
  fourth with the Red Sox leading
• 1:33:41
  five to three Vic Wirtz home in
• 1:33:42
  the first with three on for the
• 1:33:43
  Red Sox Kansas City leads
• 1:33:45
  Baltimore 10 nothing at the end
• 1:33:46
  of seven and a half all against
• 1:33:48
  Fisher Wilhelm was knocked out
• 1:33:49
  Dick Williams home in the fifth
• 1:33:51
  with the bases loaded for Kansas
• 1:33:54
  City Detroit and Washington
• 1:33:55
  Aaron a pitcher's battle Mosby
• 1:33:57
  against Clevinger it's nothing
• 1:33:58
  nothing at the end of six and in
• 1:34:00
  the National League Philadelphia
• 1:34:01
  San Francisco Pittsburgh at Los
• 1:34:03
  Angeles start later on
• 1:34:04
  Cincinnati Chicago postponed at
• 1:34:06
  the fifth straight postponed
• 1:34:07
  game for the Cubs at home and
• 1:34:09
  St. Louis and Milwaukee not
• 1:34:11
  scheduled and we're ready to go
• 1:34:13
  here in the top of the seventh
• 1:34:14
  inning and ready to go is Mel
• 1:34:16
  Allen hello there everybody
• 1:34:19
  it's the first of the seven one
• 1:34:22
  to nothing in favor of the
• 1:34:23
  Indians it's the bottom third of
• 1:34:26
  the Cleveland order in the
• 1:34:27
  seventh George Strickland
• 1:34:28
  leading off Hardy and Perry to
• 1:34:30
  follow surely in relief of short
• 1:34:32
  to the wind up and the pitch in
• 1:34:34
  therefore strike Strickland pop
• 1:34:39
  the second and single the right
• 1:34:40
  and the curve is outside for a
• 1:34:53
  ball they got a sign up there
• 1:34:55
  short separate in the right as
• 1:34:56
  in the left elbow one ball one
• 1:35:05
  strike on Strickland and the
• 1:35:12
  pitch high and inside two and one
• 1:35:17
  and the Indians scored in the
• 1:35:18
  first inning for those of you
• 1:35:20
  may have tuned in late Johnny
• 1:35:22
  Temple opened the game with a
• 1:35:23
  double and with two out what he
• 1:35:26
  held double him home to back
• 1:35:31
  open the last of the first of
• 1:35:32
  the double that's been the only
• 1:35:33
  hit off Jim Perry Germany's 2 1
• 1:35:38
  pitch swung on to high fly ball
• 1:35:40
  and through left center man on
• 1:35:42
  moods under it makes the catch
• 1:35:45
  and there's one away now Carol
• 1:35:51
  Hardy grounded the first and
• 1:35:53
  grounded the third and the third
• 1:35:56
  and a double play Jim Perry to
• 1:36:05
  follow the Yankees overall the
• 1:36:11
  team had been really hitting the
• 1:36:14
  ball this was really the first
• 1:36:17
  game this year that they have
• 1:36:19
  been to do the pitch swung on and
• 1:36:21
  popped up to short to back under
• 1:36:23
  it already running it out catch
• 1:36:26
  made by Kubek for the second out
• 1:36:29
  and Jim Perry will get a hand he
• 1:36:31
  comes out of the dugout because
• 1:36:33
  they'll beat the Yankees with one
• 1:36:35
  run up in Boston but nobody has
• 1:36:37
  pitched as well against them as
• 1:36:39
  Perry has tonight here's a hand
• 1:36:40
  for him he's a switch hitter
• 1:36:56
  against the left hander Billy
• 1:36:57
  Shorty fly to right and single
• 1:37:00
  the left now he's batting left
• 1:37:01
  handed against Charlie takes a
• 1:37:05
  good cut up there Charlie's
• 1:37:20
  pitch fastball is low ball one
• 1:37:37
  Bob's next delivery fastball is
• 1:37:39
  inside around the letters ball
• 1:37:41
  to do nothing to nothing count on
• 1:37:59
  Perry and the pitch inside for
• 1:38:03
  ball three three nothing account
• 1:38:09
  on a slender pitcher Johnny
• 1:38:12
  Temple to follow Bob Charlie
• 1:38:23
  comes in with a pitch and it's
• 1:38:26
  over for strike three and one
• 1:38:30
  account very takes a look at Joe
• 1:38:33
  Joe White down at third see
• 1:38:35
  whether Joe Gordon's got him
• 1:38:36
  swinging or as the big sign on
• 1:38:44
  the three one pitch swung on hit
• 1:38:47
  by the mound Richard's not back a
• 1:38:49
  second up but it throws the
• 1:38:50
  first and I really moved down the
• 1:38:53
  line science retired no runs no
• 1:38:56
  hits no errors no one left on the
• 1:38:58
  pitch and a half running Cleveland
• 1:39:00
  one New York nothing.
• 1:39:16
  With.

  The.
• 1:39:47
  Last half of the seventh inning
• 1:40:09
  Roger Maris heading fourth in the
• 1:40:11
  order leads off with scouring on
• 1:40:14
  deck and Barrett to follow Jim
• 1:40:19
  Perry who pitched his best game
• 1:40:25
  in the first night game of the
• 1:40:26
  year at Yankee Stadium last year
• 1:40:29
  in relief as retired 18 out of
• 1:40:33
  the last 20 men he faced gave up
• 1:40:38
  a hit to do back to lead off the
• 1:40:39
  game and walk two men set a pitch
• 1:40:43
  to Roger Maris one on his foul
• 1:40:46
  foul ball a line drive down the
• 1:40:48
  right field line in the stands
• 1:40:49
  like one.
• 1:40:54
  Perry has retired eight in a row
• 1:41:03
  and 18 out of the last 20
• 1:41:12
  years the pitch high for a ball
• 1:41:15
  Maris started to bond.
• 1:41:30
  One one count one to nothing

  hander to the wind up in comes the
• 1:41:38
  pitch right in there like to one
• 1:41:46

• 1:41:47
  I think Roger was looking for
• 1:41:48
  that one to count took a little
• 1:41:55
  bit off his fastball.
• 1:42:02
  There he's got a real fast one

  Here's the moose struck out and
• 1:42:20

  he has mixed it in with his
• 1:52:23
  curves and sliders and changes up
• 1:52:26
  change ups but he may go to the
• 1:52:27
  fastball a lot now curve is
• 1:52:29
  low outside for a ball one ball
• 1:52:32
  one strike the one one pitch
• 1:52:56
  swung on there's a drive to deep
• 1:52:58
  left look out that ball is going
• 1:53:00
  going it is gone high ball game
• 1:53:28
  Elston Howard picked out a fast
• 1:53:30
  ball and timed it and sent it on
• 1:53:32
  a parking line and the left field
• 1:53:35
  seat for the first hit off Perry
• 1:53:40
  sent to back let off in the first
• 1:53:41
  inning and it's one and one
• 1:53:43
  Howard's fourth homer of the
• 1:53:45
  year Richardson fly to left and
• 1:53:50
  pop the short he swings and
• 1:53:51
  files it off upstairs like one
• 1:53:53
  board but both by Howard so it's
• 1:54:03
  one one strike on shortened up
• 1:54:11
  with Richardson at bat protect
• 1:54:13
  against the bus possibility now
• 1:54:17
  period of the wind up delivers
• 1:54:19
  and it's high and inside and
• 1:54:21
  Bobby did have a button motion
• 1:54:23
  he's tried to button had to
• 1:54:24
  really get out of there to get
• 1:54:25
  a board being hit one ball one
• 1:54:29
  strike the one one pitch swung
• 1:54:41
  on line a great shot by
• 1:54:43
  Strickland he leaps and grabs
• 1:54:44
  the ball of a line drive hit by
• 1:54:46
  Bobby Richardson George
• 1:54:51
  Strickland reached as high as
• 1:54:53
  you could go to grab that one
• 1:54:55
  just as what he held it off the
• 1:54:57
  bat of scour in the seventh
• 1:54:58
  inning Bob Curley is due to bat
• 1:55:04
  and I believe he'll be coming
• 1:55:06
  out tremendous play by George
• 1:55:21
  Strickland to take the base set
• 1:55:22
  away from Richardson and that
• 1:55:23
  would have been a double at
• 1:55:25
  least because Richardson rather
• 1:55:28
  Strickland was playing close to
• 1:55:30
  the line play was all the better
• 1:55:34
  but remember he was playing in
• 1:55:37
  an anticipation of a possible
• 1:55:39
  month they delivered it early
• 1:55:41
  swung on and missed strike one
• 1:55:43
  curbing to back on deck
• 1:55:57
  pitch swung on and missed strike
• 1:55:59
  two another curve
• 1:56:08
  no balls two strikes
• 1:56:12
  and the delivery swung on and
• 1:56:14
  fouled off to the right of the
• 1:56:15
  plate out of play and the lower
• 1:56:16
  stands the Indians in the
• 1:56:21
  ninth inning
• 1:56:26
  held and power and Romano do
• 1:56:29
  up here's the pitch and it's
• 1:56:31
  inside for a ball
• 1:56:42
  a one to count on Charlie one
• 1:56:43
  away one run in the eighth one
• 1:56:45
  won the score very pitch swung on
• 1:56:48
  and fouled off to the right of
• 1:57:03
  one ball two strikes in comes the
• 1:57:05
  next pitch and it's inside for
• 1:57:07
  ball to two to
• 1:57:24
  here's the two to deliberate
• 1:57:26
  swung on lined in the left and
• 1:57:28
  there's all and it's over and
• 1:57:31
  there goes Kelly heading for
• 1:57:33
  the two and he'll hold up with
• 1:57:37
  two bases Jimmy Pearsall
• 1:57:40
  misjudged it the ball was hit
• 1:57:43
  hard he started in and then had
• 1:57:45
  to go back and it sailed by and
• 1:57:46
  for a double
• 1:57:55
  Jimmy Pearsall who is generally
• 1:57:58
  a you know a real top flight
• 1:58:01
  fielder didn't pick it up the
• 1:58:03
  ball was a liner and Jimmy
• 1:58:05
  started in on it and then when
• 1:58:07
  he started to go back a little
• 1:58:08
  late
• 1:58:15
  for most players that would have
• 1:58:18
  been a triple
• 1:58:25
  so Charlie now is on second the
• 1:58:27
  batter is too bad to double the
• 1:58:29
  right line to right center and
• 1:58:31
  grounded the second
• 1:58:34
  Romano goes out to talk to Perry
• 1:59:02
  one away in the eight early on
• 1:59:05
  second to back it back
• 1:59:18
  very getting a sign from Romano
• 1:59:23
  into the stretch and the pitch
• 1:59:27
  ball one outside
• 1:59:32
  about a half speed pitch
• 1:59:49
  Charlie leading away from second
• 1:59:51
  not too big a lead and the pitch
• 1:59:53
  swung on line drive basically
• 1:59:55
  the left center but Charlie will
• 1:59:57
  not go I don't believe here's a
• 1:59:59
  throw he's held at third and in
• 2:00:01
  the second goes to back
• 2:00:10
  go back singles to left and take
• 2:00:13
  second on the throw to the plate
• 2:00:17
  Charlie didn't have much of a
• 2:00:18
  lead as we were telling you and
• 2:00:22
  hard line at left center
• 2:00:23
  and over got the ball and fired
• 2:00:25
  high to the plate enabling
• 2:00:27
  Kubek to go to second out of the
• 2:00:30
  dugout now comes Joe Gordon
• 2:00:40
  the flash goes out to talk to Jim
• 2:00:42
  Perry and we'll see whether or not
• 2:00:45
  he makes a change
• 2:01:01
  Gordon out the mound with Romano
• 2:01:02
  and Perry
• 2:01:11
  and the signal goes out for the
• 2:01:13
  relief pitcher left handed
• 2:01:20
  Charlie comes on into the dugout
• 2:01:22
  to rest awhile
• 2:01:50
  well we have to wait and see
• 2:01:55
  could be Dick could be Dick
• 2:01:56
  Stigman who is it? No. Dick
• 2:02:00
  Stigman I think
• 2:02:08
  Dick Stigman who was with San
• 2:02:10
  Diego last year worked in forty
• 2:02:12
  five games
• 2:02:16
  six foot three two hundred pounder
• 2:02:18
  from a town called Nimrod in
• 2:02:20
  Minnesota
• 2:02:23
  this is his fifth appearance and
• 2:02:25
  he's won one and lost one
• 2:02:27
  relieved twice and started twice
• 2:02:29
  beat Kansas City three to one and
• 2:02:31
  a start May 1st and lost to
• 2:02:34
  Baltimore in his last start nine
• 2:02:35
  two
• 2:02:38
  Jim Perry will soon depart and
• 2:02:40
  fans will give him a nice hand
• 2:02:42
  he pitched tremendous ball up to
• 2:02:44
  the center of the inning
• 2:02:48
  Howard's home run sort of shook
• 2:02:50
  him a little
• 2:02:52
  and the misjudgment of Charlie's
• 2:02:54
  liner got him into further trouble
• 2:03:12
  the fans respond with a warm
• 2:03:15
  round of applause for Jim Perry
• 2:03:19
  who put on quite a show tonight
• 2:03:25
  in seven and one third innings
• 2:03:28
  pitching he allowed four hits
• 2:03:30
  three in this inning
• 2:03:32
  walked two struck out four so far
• 2:03:34
  just been charged with one run
• 2:03:38
  got into a little trouble after
• 2:03:40
  that and then a solid homer
• 2:03:43
  four hundred foot plus drive in
• 2:03:44
  the left field seats to open the
• 2:03:46
  eighth for the second hit and the
• 2:03:47
  person's the first inning
• 2:03:51
  Richardson was robbed of at least
• 2:03:53
  a double on a tremendous play by
• 2:03:55
  Strickland and then Charlie's
• 2:03:57
  liner apparently in his judge by
• 2:03:59
  first all went for a double
• 2:04:04
  Bob didn't take too much of a
• 2:04:05
  lead off second and on the base
• 2:04:07
  hit that followed by Kubek into
• 2:04:08
  the center he only got as far as
• 2:04:10
  third but Curse all
• 2:04:14
  racing into the gap and making a
• 2:04:16
  fine throw to the plate on which
• 2:04:18
  Kubek
• 2:04:20
  raced the second
• 2:04:22
  Dick Stigman a left hander
• 2:04:26
  this is the case if this is a case
• 2:04:28
  of where a manager doesn't play it
• 2:04:30
  by the book and a lot of managers
• 2:04:34
  don't go by the book exactly
• 2:04:37
  as they do all the time but
• 2:04:39
  Stigman is a fellow who's got
• 2:04:40
  good curve good slider and keeps
• 2:04:43
  the ball low and that's what
• 2:04:45
  they're trying to do get somebody
• 2:04:46
  here now make them hit on the
• 2:04:47
  ground McDougall fly into left
• 2:04:50
  and right and take a third strike
• 2:05:00
  Charlie on third
• 2:05:02
  Kubek on second one out
• 2:05:08
  infield in for play at the plate
• 2:05:09
  to wind up by the left hander in
• 2:05:11
  the pitch in there for strike
• 2:05:27
  now the pitch just outside for a
• 2:05:29
  ball one and one Stigman gives you
• 2:05:32
  a lot of motion out there
• 2:05:37
  and big fella six three 200 pounds
• 2:05:42
  24 years old
• 2:05:44
  infield in
• 2:05:47
  Charlie leads off third Kubek off
• 2:05:49
  second one out the left hander to
• 2:05:51
  the wind up and the pitch McDougall
• 2:05:53
  swings and misses sinker ball one
• 2:05:55
  and two
• 2:06:10
  one and two the count on McDougall
• 2:06:14
  runners on second and third relief

• 2:06:21
  wind up around comes the left arm the
• 2:06:22
  pitch swung on and missed strike
• 2:06:25

  two away now and the batter is
• 2:06:36
  Mantle who walks fly to center and
• 2:06:38
  fly to left
• 2:06:55
  two men down
• 2:07:08
  two men away
• 2:07:10
  Stigman into the wind up here's the
• 2:07:12
  pitch to Mantle swung on and missed
• 2:07:14
  like one we've got a tremendous
• 2:07:16
  thinker throws a ball up there and it
• 2:07:19
  just think
• 2:07:21
  very much like Jerry Staley on Sunday
• 2:07:28
  infield back at normal depth
• 2:07:33
  one strike
• 2:07:37
  Stigman of the wind up and the pitch
• 2:07:39
  it's low and inside for a ball blocked
• 2:07:42
  by Romano almost a wild pitch one and
• 2:07:44
  one
• 2:07:49
  we're a lot about Stigman and spring
• 2:07:51
  training engines trained in Arizona
• 2:07:52
  first time we've seen him work
• 2:07:55
  gives you a big motion
• 2:08:00
  throw some wicked breaking stuff out
• 2:08:02
  there
• 2:08:04
  Charlie on third and go back on second
• 2:08:06
  with two outs one all last of the eight
• 2:08:10
  now the pitch hits outside ball to two
• 2:08:13
  and one
• 2:08:25
  Romano looks over into the Cleveland
• 2:08:27
  dugout
• 2:08:29
  gives his sign to the Dick Stigman
• 2:08:31
  left-hander and relief of Perry
• 2:08:37
  into the wind up here's the pitch and
• 2:08:39
  Mantle takes ball three low and outside

  three balls one strike
• 2:08:53
  Charlie on third go back on second two
• 2:08:55
  outs in the eighth inning of a one one
• 2:08:57
  ballgame

  now the three one pitch swung on and
• 2:09:03
  bow back strike to Polk out
• 2:09:18
  Polk out on Mantle
• 2:09:27
  Stigman wants a new ball to throw
• 2:09:48
  wind up and the payoff pitch and Mantle
• 2:09:51
  takes high ball for Roger Maris walking
• 2:09:58
  up for the bases loaded
• 2:10:01
  throughout
• 2:10:03
  he popped the short walk and grounded
• 2:10:05
  the second
• 2:10:20
  Mantle had a 13 game hitting streak on
• 2:10:23
  the line tonight and he has failed to hit
• 2:10:26
  the walk twice two outs and Roger Maris
• 2:10:29

• 2:11:35
  around comes the left arm the pitch
• 2:11:37
  swung on foul back upstairs like to one
• 2:11:40
  and two
• 2:11:42
  it's been an odd inning at that Elston
• 2:11:44
  Howard open the inning with a homer to
• 2:11:46
  tie the score and since then the Yankees
• 2:11:47
  have been trying to go ahead they got
• 2:11:51
  to carry out
• 2:11:57
  and the bases loaded in two outs and one
• 2:11:59
  ball and two strikes the count on Roger
• 2:12:02
  Maris here's the wind up the pitch and
• 2:12:05

• 2:12:57
  getting the sign he's ready there go
• 2:13:00
  three runners here's the payoff pitch
• 2:13:02
  and it is swung on and popped up
• 2:13:04
  here's the power getting under it and
• 2:13:07
  the sides retired
• 2:13:12
  and the left hander stayed within one
• 2:13:14
  run for New York three hits no Cleveland
• 2:13:19
  errors and three Yankees left on and at
• 2:13:23
  the end of eight innings to play it's a
• 2:13:25
  one-one ball game Bob Charlie's pitch to
• 2:13:28
  what he in there strike one
• 2:13:31
  big power on Beck and Romano to follow
• 2:13:36
  so we got another fingernail biter as we
• 2:13:38
  had on Sunday for a while
• 2:13:47
  Charlie took over for short in the fifth
• 2:13:49
  inning to out his curveball is fouled
• 2:13:52

  here's the two two pitch swung on and
• 2:15:19
  popped up in the air Howard back near the
• 2:15:21
  screen he's getting under it and he's
• 2:15:24
  got it
• 2:15:27
  held bowels out to Howard
• 2:15:34
  now big power and singled in the first
• 2:15:37
  inning flying to left and the fourth and
• 2:15:41
  popped out the third in the sixth
• 2:16:02
  the Tigers finally broke their losing
• 2:16:04
  streak they wanted one to nothing they
• 2:16:06
  pitched a big power swung on and bounder
• 2:16:09
  hit out the second Richardson up with it
• 2:16:11
  throws the sky on two away
• 2:16:16
  now Johnny Romano he lined back to the
• 2:16:20
  pitcher grounded the third struck out
• 2:16:25
  first of the ninth inning a 1-1 ballgame
• 2:16:45
  right hand hitter
• 2:16:48
  Charlie's delivery fastball strike call
• 2:16:55
  no balls one strike
• 2:17:00
  Romano has
• 2:17:04
  better than average power
• 2:17:07
  Charlie's delivery curve and it's a little
• 2:17:10
  high one and one one ball one strike
• 2:17:23
  one one count on Romano
• 2:17:28
  journey throws fastball swung on to high
• 2:17:31
  fly to deep left yogi waiting for it back
• 2:17:34
  out there and yogi's got it
• 2:17:38
  retired in the night no runs no hits no
• 2:17:41
  errors no one left on the end of eight
• 2:17:43
  and a half innings it's one and one and
• 2:17:47
  in the last of the night Yankees will
• 2:17:49
  have scowl and Barra and Howard coming up
• 2:17:54
  and I hope you've got some Valentine
• 2:17:56
  beer coming up an exciting ballgame
• 2:17:59
  yoga getting a hand he comes in let's
• 2:18:03
  have a quick look at the lighter side of
• 2:18:04
  sports how about trying these on for
• 2:18:08
  size the golfer playing a hundred degree
• 2:18:10
  heat hit a ball that traveled all of 75
• 2:18:12
  yards before it suddenly exploded in mid
• 2:18:14
  air and started a grass fire man it was
• 2:18:17
  dry and then there was a famous
• 2:18:19
  university that set a new high in the
• 2:18:21
  care of its athletes that ensured the
• 2:18:23
  thumb of each member of its tiddly
• 2:18:24
  Winx team for $700 got a hand it to him
• 2:18:28
  well let's turn from the lighter side of
• 2:18:31
  sports to the lighter side of beer and
• 2:18:33
  that means Valentine of course
• 2:18:35
  Valentine is the light beer with true
• 2:18:38
  log of flavor lightness and log of beer
• 2:18:41
  flavor two good reasons why folks from
• 2:18:43
  Maine to Florida have made Valentine the
• 2:18:46
  largest selling beer in the East how
• 2:18:48
  about you refresh with a crisp
• 2:18:51
  picture soon
• 2:19:03
  Nick Stigman the six foot three left
• 2:19:06
  hander who came in and put the fire out
• 2:19:10
  before it could
• 2:19:14
  do any damage after Howard Homer
• 2:19:16
  made Paul Perry to tie the score
• 2:19:19
  you have a rough spot for him to be in
• 2:19:21
  bases loaded and three and two on the
• 2:19:23
  batter he's ready to pitch the scour
• 2:19:26
  and struck out foul of the catcher and
• 2:19:28
  lined to short in comes the pitch

  Yogi Barrow be coming up he flied to
• 2:19:43
  right center the third and grounded the
• 2:19:45
  second
• 2:20:11
  there digs in Dick Stigman swings to the
• 2:20:15
  wind up around comes the left arm the
• 2:20:17
  pitch is high ball one
• 2:20:30
  the one nothing pitch on its way to
• 2:20:32
  Yogi in their strike one one and one
• 2:20:47
  the one one pitch to Barrow swung on
• 2:20:50
  play fly ball in the short center temple
• 2:20:52
  going out and he's got it
• 2:20:55
  two away and here's Elston Howard who
• 2:20:59
  Homer to keep the Yankees in the ball
• 2:21:01
  and he's got him the eighth inning
• 2:21:09
  he had hit to the box and fly to center
• 2:21:11
  and let off in the eighth with a line
• 2:21:13
  drive Homer into the left field stand
• 2:21:16
  two down last to the ninth one and one
• 2:21:19
  the score
• 2:21:30
  Dick Stigman to the wind up around comes
• 2:21:32
  the left arm and the pitch is in their
• 2:21:34
  strike one fastball
• 2:21:46
  the next delivery swung on lined out in
• 2:21:49
  the right center for a base hit and

  Howard turned first back headed nicely by
• 2:21:54
  Keane the four in the second Howard's in
• 2:21:56
  there with a double
• 2:22:11
  now they are going to put Richardson on
• 2:22:13
  and that's the Charlie I believe
• 2:22:18
  Bobby Richardson who fly to left pop
• 2:22:20
  short in line the third I believe will
• 2:22:26
  be put on first base
• 2:22:33
  you'll be intentionally fast ball one
• 2:22:41
  and the second one
• 2:22:47
  Bobby's or a team they could reach the
• 2:22:50
  ball and the third one
• 2:22:56
  now the fourth one so Richardson is
• 2:22:59
  purposely fast
• 2:23:02
  and Casey and I have to decide whether he
• 2:23:04
  wants to leave turn in there or not
• 2:23:08
  been pitching well
• 2:23:11
  with two out he may make a move we'll
• 2:23:17
  see
• 2:23:20
  the Lopez is going to hit for him
• 2:23:48
  all the game situation is forced Casey
• 2:23:50
  to send up a pinch hitter with two out
• 2:23:54
  for Charlie who in relief of short
• 2:23:58
  after short stain his elbow work for and
• 2:24:01
  one third innings of hitless ball
• 2:24:05
  one struck out one and didn't allow any
• 2:24:07
  runs
• 2:24:09
  and now Ken Hunt's going into run for
• 2:24:11
  Howard Howard getting a hand he leaves
• 2:24:24
  Ken Hunt running for Howard
• 2:24:35
  two outs in the last of the night on

  eighth inning when Howard Homer the
• 2:26:05
  Yankees then loaded the bases Stigman
• 2:26:08
  having a relieved Harry and Stigman got
• 2:26:16
  the side out or the Yankees having a
• 2:26:20
  chance of the bases loaded in the three
• 2:26:21
  to count on Maris before he popped up in

• 2:28:05
  him out for the pinch hitter with a
• 2:28:07
  possibility of getting a hit to win the
• 2:28:11
  game the last of the night was not
