  On behalf of George, George Watson and myself, this is Fred Fowler bidding you all a good afternoon from Comiskey Park, the home of the White Sox in Chicago,
• 0:16
  to bring you this second game of the City Championship Series between the White Sox and the Cubs being played this afternoon in Comiskey Park.
• 0:24
  The game will not start for about five minutes, but we have time to tell you about the crowd and the stands, and also to give you the lineups for the games to be played this afternoon.
• 0:34
  Looking out from the press box up here, we would say that there are approximately 15,000 to 18,000 fans in the stands, both in the up production and the boxes below.
• 0:42
  And it's a bright, sunny day. The fielders are all out on the field down there, all ready for the players to go out, and they've already warmed up and have left the field
• 0:51
  with just the pitchers warming up down in the open right now.
• 0:56
  So without more ado, we'll give you the lineup for the game to be played this afternoon.
• 1:00
  For the Cubs to come to bat first, the land is going to play center field.
• 1:05
  Cabaretta, third base.
• 1:08
  Herman, second base.
• 1:12
  Demarie, right field.
• 1:15
  Hax, third base.
• 1:18
  Harknett, catching.
• 1:20
  Jurgen, short top.
• 1:23
  And Lon Warnocky will do the pitching.
• 1:26
  For the White Sox, right flip, left field.
• 1:30
  Rosenthal, center field.
• 1:33
  Tuck, right field.
• 1:36
  Benora, third base.
• 1:39
  Atling, short top.
• 1:42
  Hayes, second base.
• 1:45
  Dyke, third base.
• 1:48
  Sewell, catching.
• 1:50
  And Monty Stratton, pitching.
• 1:54
  The field announcer is just giving the lineup that we have just given you,
• 1:57
  and the fans are continuing to pull in.
• 1:59
  In fact, there's a goodly crowd that's already coming in.
• 2:02
  As we look out over the diamond here,
• 2:05
  oh incidentally, the umpires are just coming in,
• 2:07
  the four umpires for this afternoon, and they are
• 2:12
  Stewart, Barr, McGowan, and Ormsby.
• 2:16
  Stewart is at first base.
• 2:19
  Barr is at third base.
• 2:22
  And Ormsby at the plate.
• 2:26
  They're not taking out the balls and giving them to the catcher,
• 2:29
  or rather to the umpire, Barr behind their umpire, Ormsby,
• 2:34
  behind the plate, throwing his pockets with them.
• 2:36
  And incidentally, we're going to tell you that the grandstand is sprinkled
• 2:40
  with a goodly supply of overcoats this afternoon.
• 2:43
  You know, if we say something about football starting,
• 2:46
  that's right, it's football season right now.
• 2:48
  Baseball season is practically over with just the city fairies to wind up the season.
• 2:53
  And the overcoats are coming more into prominence with
• 2:55
  Monty showing up here and there.
• 2:57
  There's a very colorful crowd out in the stands this afternoon.
• 2:59
  There's a very mild, moderate, gentle wind blowing.
• 3:03
  In fact, I should say it was coming very gently from the west to southwest.
• 3:07
  West to southwest. Is that about right?
• 3:09
  About stow us, Jordan remarks.
• 3:13
  The breeze seems to be coming from the back of the box here,
• 3:16
  so it is blowing in a northeasterly direction,
• 3:19
  which will help if the ball gets above these stands
• 3:22
  and carrying it into that battlefield bleachers out there,
• 3:24
  which is about 440 feet.
• 3:28
  Yes, there's only been one ball ever hit in there.
• 3:30
  It'll have to be a little bit stronger wind than it is today to carry it really into it.
• 3:34
  Nonetheless, it is a perfect baseball day.
• 3:37
  One of those days it can be adapted to almost any sport,
• 3:40
  whether it's baseball, football, or whatever it happens to be.
• 3:44
  And there go the White Sox onto the field to take their position
• 3:48
  for the first half of the first inning.
• 3:51
  The White Sox are all dressed in their white uniforms,
• 3:53
  and the visiting Cubs will be in their gray visitor's uniforms this afternoon.
• 3:57
  And now the game has just about to start,
• 3:59
  and so for the play-by-play first few innings,
• 4:02
  here he is, George Watson.
• 4:04
  Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.
• 4:12
  We're underway for the second game in the city series between the Sox and the Cubs.
• 4:17
  Yesterday, of course you know, the White Sox came north to Wrigley Field
• 4:20
  and taught the Cubs two lessons in baseball by the score of 5-2-1.
• 4:25
  But in Kennedy allowing only four hits in the entire ball game,
• 4:29
  which was a crackerjack ball game in the two-watch.
• 4:32
  And the home run was something to really get a kick out of,
• 4:37
  the boys swapping home one after another.
• 4:42
  Our pitch is warming up now.
• 4:44
  Marty Stratton, looking for the White Sox with Luke Sewell behind the plate,
• 4:48
  and the first man to bat is Augie Galan.
• 4:51
  Marty Stratton, a tall spinger out there, taking the rousin bag,
• 4:56
  goes down his club, getting the signs from Luke Sewell, and the ball game is about to begin.
• 5:02
  Take it.
• 5:03
  Arm behind him.
• 5:07
  Get in the signal and take Marty.
• 5:10
  And here it is, the first pitch.
• 5:13
  And ball one.
• 5:23
  And a pitch.
• 5:26
  And a foul up into the upper deck just in front of us there,
• 5:29
  and is met completely by all confess.
• 5:35
  Strike one.
• 5:36
  And ball one on Augie Galan.
• 5:40
  Stretch and a pitch.
• 5:42
  And the foul takes one into the midst of Luke Sewell for strike two.
• 5:56
  Strike two and ball one on the hitter.
• 5:58
  The rousin bag again.
• 5:59
  Marty Stratton, tall right-hander, pitching Augie Galan batting left-handed.
• 6:04
  And a man-man shoot which developed into a ball.
• 6:08
  Strike and ball two.
• 6:12
  Two and two.
• 6:17
  Oh, that one, that one cut the inside corner of the play,
• 6:21
  but Augie Galan didn't like that.
• 6:23
  He just kind of said that it wants to go by, so it's one out.
• 6:26
  Augie Galan striking out.
• 6:27
  Watch that third one go by.
• 6:29
  Marty just put a screwball twist on that,
• 6:31
  and it broke sharply over the inside corner of the play.
• 6:34
  Which brings Phil Cavaretta to bat.
• 6:39
  And the pitch.
• 6:42
  And ball one.
• 6:46
  Ball one for Phil Cavaretta.
• 6:48
  Stretch.
• 6:51
  Cutting the inside corner of the play.
• 6:53
  Ball two.
• 6:56
  Oh, well.
• 6:59
  That play is one out rather.
• 7:05
  One out, the first half of the first inning.
• 7:08
  And the pitch.
• 7:10
  That sharply hit ball down to the second baseman, and he hits out.
• 7:15
  Or the second out.
• 7:22
  Ball will get down to Jackie Hayes, so it's plenty of time to feel it
• 7:25
  and get it over to Zeke Minara.
• 7:27
  Which brings us Bradley Haack, at bat, hitting right-handed.
• 7:32
  Two out.
• 7:40
  And he ducked in the mark that time.
• 7:44
  Oh, I'm sorry.
• 7:45
  Is that the hack?
• 7:46
  I'm off the bat.
• 7:47
  Billy Herman.
• 7:50
  Billy Herman is the batter.
• 7:53
  And ball two on Billy Herman.
• 7:55
  Ball two and strike one.
• 8:04
  Billy Herman to the pitch.
• 8:06
  Another one of those underhanded turns.
• 8:08
  That sharply across the play.
• 8:13
  Strike one.
• 8:14
  Ball.
• 8:20
  Starts to get under the pitch again, to Billy Herman.
• 8:23
  And Billy takes the right cut about ball.
• 8:26
  High-five all into the left period.
• 8:29
  And he is taken very nicely by Ripa Renz, a former player.
• 8:36
  No hits, no runs, and no errors for the Cubs in their first half
• 8:41
  and the first inning in the second game between the White Bats and the Cubs.
• 8:46
  One more to go on the mound.
• 8:59
  Raising over a few to Debbie Hartnett, both causing the ball around the infield.
• 9:04
  Cubs are tired and they're traveling in the forms today.
• 9:08
  And the White Sox down to bat.
• 9:11
  And there will be Ripa Renz, a left fielder for the Sox.
• 9:19
  Burning down there like he usually does.
• 9:22
  Long, slow, and up and then up and away she comes.
• 9:38
  This right hand has been dropped.
• 9:41
  The fans are pretty crazy about it, but what he did yesterday by knocking that ball out into the right field,
• 9:46
  he's had a big recede.
• 9:48
  The right foot is at bat, long one again to mound.
• 9:53
  And they're ready to go.
• 9:55
  And they're trying to get a hand in against the right-hander pitcher.
• 10:08
  Get some of that good old dirt to rub on that bat.
• 10:17
  Rubbing at the ball.
• 10:25
  Here she comes, stretching the pitch and right over the heart of the plate for strike one.
• 10:31
  Strike one and ball one.
• 10:40
  Ball two cuts way out in the outside corner.
• 10:43
  Ball two, strike one.
• 10:47
  Rant this to hit her.
• 10:53
  Getting ready to pitch.
• 10:55
  There's the wind edge.
• 10:57
  And that beauty right over the heart of the plate.
• 11:01
  Rather than slow ball, had a very freaky curve.
• 11:06
  Seemed to kind of lob over.
• 11:09
  And just let it go. Strike two and ball three.
• 11:15
  Ball three.
• 11:19
  Ball three, strike two on Ripper Reddick.
• 11:22
  First man up in the cut part of the first inning.
• 11:32
  That should be the good one.
• 11:35
  Ripper Reddick gets the walk.
• 11:39
  That's a tip on first.
• 11:41
  Brings up Mary Rosenthal, the center fielder.
• 11:48
  Rosenthal a bat, also batting left-handed.
• 11:51
  That's a tip on first.
• 11:53
  And Warnocky getting rid of the pitch.
• 11:56
  Gets his time from Gabby Hardnett.
• 11:58
  Moore's all in position.
• 12:01
  Watching first base and here's the pitch.
• 12:07
  Strike one on Mary Rosenthal.
• 12:11
  That's just staying pretty close to first base.
• 12:13
  Long's looking over there, keeping him pretty over the bag.
• 12:17
  Now a little lead off, watching him, the pitch.
• 12:20
  And he tries to bunt to let his hand out foul.
• 12:23
  Strike two on Mary Rosenthal.
• 12:28
  Boy, striking the ball around the infield.
• 12:33
  Back to Long Warnocky.
• 12:36
  He's still working on that ball, trying to get that cover loosened up a little bit.
• 12:41
  The rising bag, steps up to the slam.
• 12:45
  Gets the time from Gabby Hardnett.
• 12:48
  And the pitch.
• 12:55
  That was ball one.
• 12:58
  Ball one and strike two on Rosenthal.
• 13:05
  Ripper Reddrick on first base.
• 13:12
  There's the lead off.
• 13:15
  He's about ten feet off the bag.
• 13:17
  And right straight through the box and right back to base.
• 13:20
  And now he's held up a second.
• 13:23
  The ball is a little wide.
• 13:25
  Holding Reddrick a second.
• 13:27
  Rosenthal fingers sharply, right field on Warnocky.
• 13:31
  Went out into center field.
• 13:36
  So now Mr. Warnocky is in the middle of the hole.
• 13:38
  No outs.
• 13:40
  The man on first and second, which brings up Zeke Venora.
• 13:44
  That is a few yards.
• 13:47
  Few yards at bat.
• 13:49
  The man on first and second.
• 13:51
  He is in a hole now.
• 13:54
  Foul at two to the left up in the second back of the grandstand.
• 14:00
  Strike one on Newhall.
• 14:06
  Strike one on Newhall.
• 14:08
  Man on first and second.
• 14:10
  And strike one on the back.
• 14:16
  Man on first and second pretty close now before he grabs the pitch and blows the pitch.
• 14:23
  And ball in.
• 14:31
  Into a playing in first now and figuring that Osmott has got the bounce.
• 14:40
  Strike one on third one.
• 14:50
  With a little bit of a second, Warnocky getting around the pitch.
• 14:56
  And he rebounds.
• 14:58
  And he busts right down to Warnocky.
• 15:00
  Warnocky plays the third.
• 15:03
  He's a little on the third base of the head.
• 15:05
  Another run from the end.
• 15:06
  Comes over the end.
• 15:08
  And Newhall can take the third on the front.
• 15:13
  Newhall on the third base.
• 15:15
  Warnocky fielded him two and way over the third base and head out of the left field.
• 15:23
  A two-base ball.
• 15:25
  We can see an argument about it now.
• 15:27
  They have a argument about their argument for the umpire.
• 15:32
  Warnocky threw about six feet over the third base and head and went way out of the left center.
• 15:36
  And we have two runs in and a house on third base.
• 15:41
  A two-base throwing here.
• 15:47
  He laid that butt down perfect.
• 15:49
  Warnocky to the fielder, which he did.
• 15:51
  And then through the third he found against the man coming in second.
• 15:54
  But he over his head and went and straight out into the garden.
• 15:57
  I think there should be some dispute about it now.
• 15:59
  Gabby Hartnett's out there arguing with the umpires.
• 16:04
  It was a beautiful play and from where we sit up here in the hoop, we get a nice old birthday.
• 16:11
  So I go back to the umpire and it's a tie.
• 16:18
  Reds take the world and go a score to a left, bringing the odds up to third base and nobody else.
• 16:26
  I think they're the bad guys and they wipe that back for the first time.
• 16:34
  Gabby's still arguing down there, but I guess it's going to go.
• 16:38
  So a few runs in, a few runs out, and a few hogs on third base by virtue of that bungee laid down.
• 16:43
  Warnocky two-footed and two over the third base and head, which was a two-base throw here.
• 16:53
  Zeke Minora has it back.
• 16:56
  The right hand is in.
• 17:00
  Strike one on Zeke Minora.
• 17:14
  Stretch and the pitch.
• 17:16
  And ball one and strike one on Zeke Minora.
• 17:19
  Susan Henshaw warming up for the tub.
• 17:23
  Warnocky finds himself in quite a mess out there now.
• 17:28
  A few runs in, nobody out.
• 17:29
  The man on third base, Zeke Minora, is back with one strike and ball one.
• 17:35
  Ball two, one-oh-two, strike one.
• 17:39
  Mr. Minora is the batter.
• 17:47
  Warnocky getting his signal from Gabby Harden, a wind up, and the pitch.
• 17:54
  And ball three.
• 17:58
  Ball three on Zeke Minora with strike one.
• 18:01
  Nobody out.
• 18:02
  The man on third, Zeke Wenshaw.
• 18:10
  And the pitch.
• 18:12
  And Zeke gets a hold of one, which is going foul into the lower box, to our right.
• 18:20
  Strike two and ball three.
• 18:26
  Nobody out.
• 18:27
  Thrower, do the nothing, ball to white stuff.
• 18:30
  In there happens a thinning.
• 18:36
  Warnocky getting ready to pitch.
• 18:40
  And here it is, and he fouls another.
• 18:43
  A second to each team.
• 18:45
  So it's strike two, ball three.
• 18:49
  Luke Atley is the next to bat.
• 18:59
  He cuts on the alert now, watching every movement of John Warnocky.
• 19:04
  And Luke fouls another over into the white stuff dugout.
• 19:09
  But now that there's a turn, we ball two strikes.
• 19:14
  And he's all done for at this.
• 19:22
  Nice crowd out here today.
• 19:23
  Perfect baseball weather.
• 19:25
  A little chilly up here, but nice down in the field.
• 19:28
  And Zeke Minora's struck out.
• 19:30
  For the first out in the second half of the first inning.
• 19:33
  Luke Atley coming to bat.
• 19:35
  All still on third base.
• 19:37
  Luke Atley, a captain back from the bothleaf.
• 19:42
  And Luke gets a mighty nice hand.
• 19:45
  That's right-handed.
• 19:47
  Warnocky still rubbing up that ball.
• 19:51
  Getting ready to pitch now, getting his sign from Gabby Hartman.
• 19:54
  And here it comes.
• 19:56
  Ball on.
• 19:57
  High and on the inside.
• 20:03
  Ball one for Atley.
• 20:08
  And ball two.
• 20:11
  That broke sharply to the outside of the plate.
• 20:14
  About knee-high.
• 20:18
  The boy's playing in close now.
• 20:21
  Warnocky using the rousing bag quite frequently.
• 20:26
  And the pitch.
• 20:30
  And he holds a sharply hit ball down to Billy Herman at second.
• 20:36
  And it develops into a two-banger.
• 20:38
  That ball's got the nasty hop.
• 20:40
  It's turned right off to Billy Herman.
• 20:45
  That ball would be called a hit.
• 20:47
  A ball that it looks like Billy could steal,
• 20:50
  but it's got the sharp bounce off his shoe.
• 20:52
  And it's called a hit.
• 20:54
  And Luke Atley, a captain,
• 20:56
  holds up a second base.
• 21:01
  Ball bounded high right out into the right field.
• 21:05
  And another run in, so it's three to nothing for the stock.
• 21:09
  All short and third base on that two-banger.
• 21:14
  Which brings us to that Jackie Hayes.
• 21:18
  One ball.
• 21:24
  Jackie Hayes a hitter.
• 21:28
  And he's out.
• 21:30
  That's the little down-to-down that went foul out into the third base coaching box.
• 21:36
  Ball one and strike one on Jackie Hayes.
• 21:39
  And one out.
• 21:40
  One out and three runs in for the white stocks.
• 21:47
  Warnocky getting a sign.
• 21:52
  And the pitch.
• 21:55
  Luke Atley taking final lead off second base.
• 22:02
  Ball two and strike one.
• 22:09
  He stands up at the plate very much like Luke Atley,
• 22:11
  but the same stance.
• 22:14
  And right through.
• 22:18
  Ball had a funny hop.
• 22:19
  Jackie Hayes with a wild swing at it and missed it a mile.
• 22:26
  Ball two, strike two on Jackie Hayes.
• 22:28
  Luke Atley on second base, one out.
• 22:31
  And the score is three to nothing for the white stocks.
• 22:36
  There's the pitch.
• 22:39
  Cabe Huygens calling him for the umpire pitch.
• 22:44
  He got that ball, his right hand went up.
• 22:46
  But it so happened it was ball three.
• 22:48
  Ball three and strike two on Jackie Hayes.
• 22:53
  Atley taking quite a lead off second.
• 22:56
  And here is the pitch.
• 22:59
  Gets the hole to one.
• 23:00
  It's a high fly out into the center field.
• 23:03
  He's got the run for it.
• 23:06
  Center field that came in for that, Oge Golan came in for it.
• 23:09
  But Billy Herman went back and took it just about midway
• 23:12
  between the second base and the center field of bleachers.
• 23:18
  So it's two outs.
• 23:20
  Jackie Hayes flying out to Billy Herman.
• 23:22
  And as the Jimmy Dyches is at bat.
• 23:25
  Score three to nothing for the white stocks.
• 23:28
  And two outs.
• 23:30
  Luke Atley still on second base.
• 23:32
  Jimmy Dyches at bat.
• 23:35
  Strike one on Jimmy.
• 23:37
  Right over the hardest plate about better high.
• 23:48
  So the second half of the first inning.
• 23:52
  Strike two on Jimmy Dyches.
• 23:58
  Two outs.
• 24:01
  Atley on second.
• 24:02
  Dyches at bat.
• 24:05
  Two strikes on that end of the game.
• 24:07
  And he's struck out.
• 24:09
  One down for him.
• 24:10
  That ends the first half, or the last half of the first inning.
• 24:16
  Fred Brown.
• 24:17
  Ladies and gentlemen, there's some hats to him and one man left on base.
• 24:20
  And now ladies and gentlemen, yesterday afternoon, we didn't have that,
• 24:24
  but this afternoon it is our pleasure to bring to you that A, that D,
• 24:29
  our sports announcer, the man amongst men, that outstanding man.
• 24:32
  Here he is in the flesh himself, Hal Huck.
• 24:35
  Hey, can I get my head in this boot after all of that?
• 24:38
  I don't want to know.
• 24:39
  Ooh, man.
• 24:41
  Hey, George, what kind of a system do you use down here?
• 24:43
  Oh, just, you know, it's terrific.
• 24:45
  This is another George.
• 24:46
  This is Watso.
• 24:48
  Gee, Watso.
• 24:49
  Oh, that's yours.
• 24:50
  I see that's the smaller system.
• 24:52
  Well, I see I've got a lot of competition.
• 24:54
  How things go yesterday here, I thought I was going to have a vacation.
• 24:57
  Here I am back to work again.
• 24:59
  No golf.
• 25:00
  No golf.
• 25:01
  No, I don't.
• 25:02
  Well, anyway, it's worth looking at no matter what way you look at it.
• 25:05
  And going into the second inning, the Cubs are in fact,
• 25:08
  the White Sox leading three to nothing and we're bearing down with,
• 25:11
  let's see, who's at that.
• 25:12
  Frank Demery, the first man up there, and Stratton starts to wind up
• 25:16
  to fit the first one.
• 25:17
  Croson at the fat ball inside, it caused the weight for ball one.
• 25:21
  One ball called.
• 25:25
  That's just Watso sitting down in his usual quiet manner.
• 25:28
  There's both two at the fast one inside on which Demery had to slip away
• 25:33
  from it to keep from getting hit.
• 25:35
  So picks it up, looks it over and calls for another one.
• 25:37
  We jump by arms, we toss it in, immediately throwing the other ball out of play.
• 25:41
  And Soos stands there, rubs the old shine off, throws the ball back out to the pitcher.
• 25:46
  Stratton has it and also does a little rubbing up on his own hook back to the bottom.
• 25:51
  It's two or nothing, a few balls and no strikes on Demery.
• 25:55
  First man's fat, the Cubs in the first half of the second.
• 25:58
  And there's strike one.
• 26:00
  A beauty down the middle across the letter, strike, let it go by without offering at it.
• 26:03
  And the count is two balls and one strike.
• 26:06
  Two and one.
• 26:09
  He hits the next one, a drive into left field.
• 26:11
  Radcliffe comes in nicely though and makes the catch for the first out in the second inning.
• 26:15
  The ball was well hit and curving a little bit towards the line,
• 26:18
  but Radcliffe came in, he was playing clear out to the wall
• 26:21
  and made the catch easily for the first out in the second inning.
• 26:24
  One out and Stanley Hacks comes up third baseman.
• 26:27
  The left hander hitter, it's all thin boy, steps up there to the plate.
• 26:30
  Hacks it fast.
• 26:35
  And he takes the first one that slips by wide across the knee for ball one.
• 26:39
  One ball called.
• 26:45
  Throws again and there's a ball inside and low.
• 26:48
  The count is two or nothing.
• 26:49
  Two balls and no strike.
• 26:54
  Start and goes back, he's deriding back, steps on the slab once more.
• 27:01
  Wines up and pitches a high ball outside for ball three.
• 27:04
  And it's three or nothing on Hacks, three balls and no strike.
• 27:11
  Three and nothing to count with the pitcher waiting out there again.
• 27:14
  Stands there with his back to the plate rubbing up the ball.
• 27:17
  And then turns around, walks slowly on the mound once more.
• 27:23
  As the sign winds up and pitches and the hitter gets ball four.
• 27:27
  It's over the plate but too low.
• 27:29
  And Hacks gets the base on ball to put him on first base with one out in the second inning for the Cubs.
• 27:34
  And Gaby Harknett, Cubs catcher, gets a hand from the Cubs fans
• 27:37
  and a big boo from the Saatch fans as he gets up there.
• 27:41
  Gaby was protesting before on the air by Warnocky claiming only one run should have come in
• 27:46
  when the ball that was thrown by Warnocky went into the canvas down the left field line.
• 27:51
  And the Saatch fans, of course, didn't like that at all and are telling him in no mean language
• 27:56
  every time he moves around, which is the old city rivalry, boys, the way it should be on both sides of the field.
• 28:03
  Start and goes the first one to Gaby who takes it for a fall.
• 28:05
  It's over the plate but too low.
• 28:07
  One ball called, Johnny Corden coaching down to first base making all sorts of wild judges to indicate that
• 28:12
  he thinks Gaby ought to get a hold of one.
• 28:15
  Stratus throws again and Leo twists away to take ball to it, inside, drops out a school of blood.
• 28:20
  And Luke picks it up and throws it back to the pitcher.
• 28:23
  Hayes dags over to cover second but akeld first as the ball drops back to the outcatcher's feet.
• 28:36
  Two and nothing is the count, two balls and no strikes.
• 28:39
  And here it is, the next one to Bonder with Strat and not down.
• 28:41
  He races over toward shortstop to get it but it's too late and Gaby beats it out for a base hit.
• 28:46
  Wooding cup runners on first and second with one out of the second inning and Johnny Gill is a bet.
• 28:55
  Hard smash right back at Strat and who made a courageous effort to get it knocking it down with his bare hand.
• 29:00
  It rolled over toward the shortstop and naturally with the ball hit straight through the box,
• 29:04
  Abling was tearing for second and didn't have time to stop and chipped into the infield to get the ball.
• 29:09
  Gaby beat it out for a base hit and cup runners are on first and second with one out of the second inning.
• 29:15
  And Johnny Gill, huck, he left hand and hit her up there.
• 29:18
  Soule suddenly calls time and asks for the pitcher to throw a couple to make sure that his hand's all right after stopping that one.
• 29:27
  Jimmy Dyches goes over to talk to him also.
• 29:30
  Bondy teams think it's okay, however, they're taking no chances.
• 29:33
  And Sugarcane has started to warm up John on the left field both ends just to be ready in case that Bondy does have trouble with controlling that ball.
• 29:43
  You know, that's a level to numb the fingers and make it a little tough.
• 29:46
  But he's thrown a couple and seems to think he's all right so we're ready to go again.
• 30:00
  Bondy's all set now, it's a throw and Johnny fouls the ball down past first base.
• 30:06
  Kerram's against the stand, Bond's out towards the left field line.
• 30:10
  Molly Stevenson warming up Frank in the right field both ends of the cup, runs in to get the ball.
• 30:16
  Alpire Stewart takes it and throws it all the way into the screen.
• 30:24
  Now Stratton swings around, he's ready once more.
• 30:27
  Throws on Gill, lines the ball into right field for a base hit.
• 30:30
  Alp is coming in on it, the runner from second is scoring.
• 30:33
  Run up from first, Gabby who isn't very fast on his feet, stops for second.
• 30:37
  Single to right by Gill, driving in Hacks, makes a score of 3-1 in favor of the White Docks.
• 30:43
  And leaves the cup runners on first and second with one out, one run home in the second inning.
• 30:49
  And Bill Jurgis is back.
• 30:51
  Jurgis is shortstop at the plate.
• 31:00
  He's a right-handed hitter, stands there waiting as Stratton gets his time.
• 31:05
  And the hitter hits the ball to slow Bondy back to Hayes, who's hooked it up, looks at Appling.
• 31:09
  He throws the first and it's a double play, a good fast double play.
• 31:13
  Hayes to Appling to Venura for the second and third outs in the first half of the second inning.
• 31:18
  And ending the inning with one run, two hits, and one man left on base for the Cubs.
• 31:28
  And the score is 3-1 in favor of the White Docks.
• 31:34
  The White Docks is back in the last half of the second inning with Sewell, Luke Sewell, the White Docks.
• 31:39
  Couch to the first man in back.
• 32:10
  First man at the bottom in the third inning for the Cubs, or rather second inning for the Stocks.
• 32:15
  Wait a minute, I knew I was going to keep them at bat. That wouldn't be too hot.
• 32:19
  Here we go in the second inning. I'll get this score.
• 32:21
  But it's not sort of funny to see either Chicago team hitting first in the inning.
• 32:25
  Here's Luke Sewell at bat to start the last half of the second.
• 32:27
  He hits the first pitch, a high-flying historic center field.
• 32:30
  Billy Herman racing back, finally calls for the ball and grabs it.
• 32:33
  He had to get it because neither Demery or Galan could get in quick enough to reach it.
• 32:39
  And so Billy Herman makes the catch pretty well out into right center, having to go a long way to get it for the first out in the second inning.
• 32:46
  And Monique Stratton gets a swell hand from the fans as he comes walking out of the dugout and up there toward the plate.
• 32:53
  Stratton at bat with one out in the second inning for the White Docks.
• 32:56
  The score is 3-1 in favor of the White Docks.
• 32:59
  And Monique gets the sign, starts to wind up.
• 33:03
  Pitches and it's a strike over the heart of the plate about waist-high.
• 33:07
  One strike to count.
• 33:11
  Monique waits there again, winds up once more.
• 33:14
  And draws and the hitter takes a strike over the heart of the plate about waist-high.
• 33:18
  And it's two strikes. Two strikes on Stratton.
• 33:27
  Down the pitcher, draws and it's 4-1. It's over the plate for Tulow.
• 33:31
  To the count, it's one ball and two strikes on Monique.
• 33:39
  One and two with the pitcher ready again.
• 33:41
  Starts to wind up once more.
• 33:42
  Throws and the hitter swings it about her down to the juggernaut who comes over fast, hooks it up nicely, throws it first, and Stratton is out for the second out in the second inning.
• 33:51
  And Riprat, and Riprat, feed off man and let's field her.
• 33:57
  Steps up there to the plate, up there to the plate.
• 33:59
  Rattippa back.
• 34:07
  Wines up, throws and Rattippa takes a strike over the heart of the plate.
• 34:10
  He's loosened up pretty well, although he loosened up in the first inning when they got busy on him.
• 34:14
  He's loosened up too much.
• 34:15
  The next one to follow it up the ground back in the plate for strike two, making it two strikes on the Ripper.
• 34:21
  Two strikes on Radcliffe. Two out in the second inning for the touch.
• 34:25
  They're leading the cup three to one out in the second inning for the
• 34:42
  one and two.
• 34:45
  Pitcher ready once more.
• 34:46
  He's winding up.
• 34:47
  Throwing to the ball out to right center to make the touch for the third out.
• 34:53
  Way out the ball was mighty well hit and Demary had to race back toward right center out in front of the scoreboard.
• 34:59
  He got that ball although still within about 20 or 25 feet of the scoreboard.
• 35:05
  So it's no runs, no hits in the second inning.
• 35:07
  And at the end of the second inning the White Sox are leading the cup by a score of three to one.
• 35:12
  Well, Fred, you got something to say here?
• 35:14
  I have, Al.
• 35:15
  Since they saw a presentation, please ring Hal Totten.
• 35:17
  He's coming to you as a presentation of the Voice of Labor, WCFL Chicago.
• 35:24
  All right, Hal, it's yours.
• 35:26
  Well, all right, I got it.
• 35:27
  In fact, I had it all the time.
• 35:28
  I was right over your shoulder.
• 35:31
  It got you out here in the cold now, Fred.
• 35:33
  You don't sit down there taking it like you did, taking it easy in that air-cooled studio in that hot weather.
• 35:39
  You remember that, George?
• 35:41
  Oh, boy.
• 35:42
  What are you moaning about?
• 35:43
  He used to sit here.
• 35:44
  Look at what he did on the day.
• 35:46
  One coat, one sweater, another sweater, another coat.
• 35:50
  And I can remember when he used to sit here and once in a while you could see him off that stock shirt.
• 35:56
  Here we go.
• 35:57
  Warnock gets out on the third inning.
• 35:58
  He got a nice hand as he came up there, but he winds up throws.
• 36:01
  And Lund swings in a ball down to Dyke's back of third base.
• 36:04
  Jim gets it, arches the ball across to Diamond, and Warnock is out for the first out in the third inning.
• 36:10
  One out in the third inning for the Cubs.
• 36:12
  And Augie Golan, the Cubs center fielder, steps up there, the leadoff man is back.
• 36:22
  Stratton stands there, getting his side, winds up and pitches.
• 36:27
  And here's a high-pass ball inside for Paul Watt.
• 36:30
  One ball called.
• 36:33
  Sewell suddenly walks out into the infield with a ball this time before throwing it back to Stratton.
• 36:38
  Comes back behind the plate again.
• 36:43
  And Marty steps on the slab once more, starts to wind up again, and pitches the hitter takes ball two with the curve ball down by the knees.
• 36:51
  And the Cubs are two and nothing on Augie.
• 36:53
  Two balls and no strikes.
• 36:55
  The Cubs in the last two innings have shown an inclination to wait this pitcher out.
• 36:59
  Stratton bears a strike, serving towards the hitter, straight over the inside corner, a little above the knees to run the counts, two and one.
• 37:05
  Two balls and one strike on Golan.
• 37:08
  Augie slips the dirt aside, then steps up to the plate, starts to wind up, throws, and he leans back to take ball three inside across the shoulders.
• 37:18
  So it's three balls and one strike on Golan.
• 37:21
  Augie batting left-handed, as he always does, against right-handed pitching wakes.
• 37:25
  Stratton winds up, throws, and the hitter swings it a high fly to right field, hos jobs in easily.
• 37:30
  He's waiting for it, has it, and it's two out in the third inning.
• 37:36
  Two out in the third inning for the Cubs.
• 37:38
  And Phil Cavaretta, the Cubs' first baseman, left-handed hitter, also steps up there to the plate.
• 37:44
  Cavaretta, taps, Stratton on the slab.
• 37:51
  Getting inside, starts his wind up, and throws on the hitter swings it a high fly out into short center field.
• 37:57
  Roden's all coming in for that, tapping, going out there, and Luke makes the catch nicely.
• 38:01
  Oh, he was throwing and still had his back to the infield as he caught that ball dropping out in front of him over his shoulder to make a nice play for the third up.
• 38:09
  And it's no runs, no hits in the third inning for the Cubs.
• 38:13
  His score remaining three to one in favor of the White Cubs.
• 38:16
  Starts the bat in the last half of the third inning.
• 38:19
  The first White Sox hitter, Larry Rosenthal, who seems to be the big shot in the attack for the Sox so far,
• 38:26
  although Appling is also keeping up with him in the hit compartment.
• 38:32
  Each one has made three hits in the two games.
• 38:36
  Let's take a look and make sure.
• 38:38
  Yesterday, Rosenthal had two hits and four times a set.
• 38:43
  Now Appling had one hit and two times a set.
• 38:45
  He had the two walks.
• 38:46
  I knew their percentage was the same.
• 38:49
  So Rosenthal now has three hits in the series and Appling two as far as the White Sox are concerned.
• 39:00
  Oh, Lucius Luke showing us no luck that he was up there leading both league and hitting.
• 39:08
  Last half of the third inning, Rosenthal upset Blake.
• 39:12
  Havki, left-handed hitter, who from all prospects should be one of the real rookies of the league year next summer
• 39:20
  when he gets the first full season.
• 39:21
  He gets the first hit to fly to left field.
• 39:23
  Gill is going back, grabs for the ball and makes a great backhanded catch of it.
• 39:28
  The only trouble was he wouldn't have to make a great backhanded catch of it if he judged it right the first place.
• 39:35
  Johnny went a racing way back there to the wall, but he was running almost in the wrong direction.
• 39:40
  And finally at the last minute, he veered over towards the foul line and made a one-handed backhanded stab of that long drive
• 39:46
  and held onto it for the first out in the third inning.
• 39:51
  And now Hasebats swings the first pitch to foul it up into the second deck and a bounce clear back out into the field.
• 39:57
  And it's one strike on Hasebats.
• 40:03
  One strike to count.
• 40:08
  He winds up again, throws and Muell swings and fouls the ball off the end of the bat.
• 40:13
  It just missed.
• 40:14
  Benura dashed over and hit the stand to the left of the plate and rolled back out in the field.
• 40:19
  Deekhudson rolls it over to the fat boy who decides it should go into the screen, not the bench.
• 40:25
  Rolls it over to Yonarousa down there.
• 40:27
  So it's two strikes, two strikes on Hasebats.
• 40:30
  With a pitcher waiting there again, he winds up and throws and Muell takes a wide one-long for a ball.
• 40:36
  And the count is one ball and two strikes on Hasebats.
• 40:39
  Warnock, you get the ball back from Parknett.
• 40:43
  Stands there, getting his sign.
• 40:44
  He's winding up and throws and the hitter swings to high fly out into left field.
• 40:49
  The left fielder, Gil, starts in on that.
• 40:51
  Ben changes his mind, backs up a little and has that one easily for the second out.
• 40:56
  So it's two out in the third inning for the White Sox.
• 40:58
  And Benura is at best.
• 41:09
  Deekh Benura up there with two out in the third inning for the White Sox.
• 41:13
  Warnock, he throws the first one.
• 41:15
  It's a strike over the inside corner, waist-high.
• 41:17
  One strike on Deekh.
• 41:21
  One strike at the count.
• 41:22
  Pitcher waiting out there again.
• 41:23
  Stands there, getting his sign.
• 41:24
  He winds up once more and throws and the hitter swings and misses a fastball for strike two.
• 41:31
  That makes it two strikes on Benura.
• 41:35
  Two out to the Sox in the third inning.
• 41:37
  White Sox leading the Cubs 3-1.
• 41:45
  Ready again, winds up, throws, and it's over the plate for Tulow for ball two, or ball one rather.
• 41:50
  The count is one and two, one ball and two strikes on Big Z.
• 41:55
  One and two to count.
• 41:59
  Warnock, he's waiting for the sign, has it, winds up again.
• 42:03
  Throws and the hitter takes the ball two and Hartnett wags his head.
• 42:07
  Warnock, he's out of play.
• 42:08
  That ball didn't go where he expected it to.
• 42:11
  Throws it back to Lahn, flips the glove up over his wrist.
• 42:14
  Throws the ball up a little bit, uses the rod and bag and comes back on the slab.
• 42:18
  Count of two balls and two strikes on Benura.
• 42:23
  Warnock, he again winds up, throws and Zeke gets the third ball.
• 42:27
  That would just barely miss the outside corner across the knees.
• 42:30
  And so Gaby takes the ball to look it over.
• 42:32
  Can't find anything wrong with it.
• 42:34
  Throws it back to Dick.
• 42:37
  Warnock, he wipes his hands dry, looks over the boys out there in the field.
• 42:44
  And throws the next one right inside for ball four, giving Zeke a base on ball.
• 42:50
  Well, well, well.
• 42:51
  He has two strikes on him and then threw four consecutive bad ones.
• 42:55
  So Benura gets the walk.
• 42:56
  And he's on first base with two out on the third inning and Luke appling it back.
• 43:01
  And Lucius Luke up there, still going like a streak.
• 43:09
  Warnock, he seems to have a sign.
• 43:10
  He's ready to pitch and throws and it's inside and low for ball one.
• 43:15
  One ball called.
• 43:20
  Five consecutive bad ones as Warnock keeps throwing out there.
• 43:22
  Four after getting two strikes on Benura to walk Zeke.
• 43:29
  And now one on appling.
• 43:31
  So it's one ball called with a pitcher waiting there again.
• 43:36
  Just as Cap swings around as he gets the sign, there's a stretch.
• 43:40
  The first base.
• 43:41
  Then throws over there, the runner just barely flipped back ahead of the throw and it was pretty dog-gone close.
• 43:47
  Zeke wasn't expecting that.
• 43:49
  And had a pretty big lead so it's had to slide back deep first to get in there.
• 43:55
  One ball called and the pitcher is ready now to pitch to appling again.
• 43:59
  Still watches the runner.
• 44:00
  But pitches and Luke gets an easy bounder down to Billy Herman who gets it.
• 44:04
  So it's the first base and it's three outs.
• 44:06
  No runs, no hits.
• 44:07
  One man left on base in the third inning for the White Sox.
• 44:11
  And the score is still three to one in favor of the White Sox at the end of the third inning.
• 44:19
  Now, well, I guess they got somebody else down there because Fred's out here.
• 44:23
  But at any rate, it's the end of the third inning.
• 44:26
  So if you want some scores of what's going on in that World Series game, we return to the studio.
• 44:33
  And here we are back in the studio to tell you that the Yankees are having a field day at Topolo Grounds in New York.
• 44:40
  Schumacher started out and was knocked out of the box.
• 44:43
  To be followed by Smith who was promptly also knocked out of the box.
• 44:47
  And the right-hander, Dick Kaufman, has finally taken a Smith place as the giant pitcher.
• 44:53
  Lazari-Holmert with the bases filled for the Yankees in the first half of the third inning.
• 44:58
  The score is now nine to one in favor of the Yankees as we come to the close of the first half of the third inning.
• 45:06
  That's all the scores now.
• 45:08
  So back to Hal Todd and Kamiske Pahl.
• 45:13
  Back at the ballpark for the fourth inning, the first man at bat for the Cubs is Billy Herman.
• 45:18
  And he followed the first pitch up against the front of the second deck,
• 45:21
  or up above on the right of the plate for strike one.
• 45:23
  One strike.
• 45:25
  On Bill.
• 45:28
  Stratton winding up again.
• 45:30
  Throws and the hitter takes a high one wide for ball one.
• 45:33
  So it's one ball and one strike on Herman.
• 45:36
  White starts leading three to one in the fourth inning.
• 45:43
  Stratton waits out there again.
• 45:45
  As the sidey starts to wind up,
• 45:48
  throws and the hitter takes a ball inside across the chest.
• 45:51
  And it's two balls and one strike on Billy Herman.
• 45:54
  Two and one to count.
• 46:05
  Two and one is a count and the hitter swings again
• 46:08
  to miss a high fast ball inside for strike two.
• 46:11
  And it's two balls and two strikes on Billy Herman.
• 46:19
  Two and two to count.
• 46:22
  Stratton throws again and Bill swings to hit the ball.
• 46:24
  Dyches takes it to his left.
• 46:26
  Throws hard to first.
• 46:27
  And Herman is out easily for the second out in the fourth inning.
• 46:31
  Wait a minute. First out in the fourth inning.
• 46:33
  I'm getting ahead of myself because I just started to look back.
• 46:36
  Herman has been completely stopped by the start pitchers in the two games so far.
• 46:40
  He got a walk in the sixth inning yesterday,
• 46:42
  but hasn't been on base yet today in two tries.
• 46:46
  And Demery is at bat.
• 46:49
  Bank wants the first one come over the heart of the plate and waste high for a strike.
• 46:54
  One strike on Demery.
• 46:59
  And the next one is wide and low for Bowen.
• 47:02
  So the count is one ball and one strike.
• 47:14
  One and one to count.
• 47:15
  The hitter follows this next one into the second deck down in front of us a little to our right.
• 47:19
  And it's one ball and two strikes.
• 47:22
  One and two on Demery.
• 47:28
  Stratton throws once more.
• 47:29
  Frank gets another ball high and wide, making it two balls and two strikes.
• 47:34
  Two and two to count.
• 47:37
  Monty goes back to use the rod and bag this time.
• 47:39
  Then comes back onto the rubber once more.
• 47:42
  They're getting a sign, start to wind up.
• 47:45
  And pitchers on the hitter swings the high foul going into the stands back at first base.
• 47:50
  Menorah comes over and is, what pose is that?
• 47:54
  Number seven, that one with his hand in the air as he comes over there.
• 47:57
  But anyway, he was shading his eyes in the sun and the ball landed pretty well back in the seats out of his reach.
• 48:04
  It's still two balls and two strikes.
• 48:06
  One and two on Frank.
• 48:08
  And he hits the next one for another foul into the stand to the right of the plate.
• 48:11
  Misses the second, then goes into the lower.
• 48:14
  Two balls and two strikes.
• 48:20
  One to the count.
• 48:27
  And he hits the next, a high-bounder.
• 48:29
  Mr. Dykes grabs for it, but it takes a high bounce.
• 48:32
  The nasty one hits his glove,
• 48:34
  bounce up back of Hapling on the runner and save at first base on what I imagine is a hit because it took a very, very bad hop.
• 48:42
  Just as it was about to get there, yeah.
• 48:45
  That's a base hit for Demery.
• 48:53
  Puts Plank on first base, one out in the fourth inning.
• 48:57
  And Stanley Hackett back.
• 48:58
  Stratton gets ready to pitch the first one, throws.
• 49:01
  When Stan hits the ball hard out into left center, Rosenthal dashes over there and makes a very, very nice running catch
• 49:07
  and throws the ball into second base to chase the runner back to first.
• 49:15
  For some reason or other they didn't have Hackett bigger just right there, I'm afraid,
• 49:18
  because Rosenthal was playing in death center field instead of left center where they usually play Stan.
• 49:24
  As a result, he had to do a terrific lot of running to get to that ball and make a sensational catch,
• 49:30
  but had to hit the ball right in his usual groove.
• 49:34
  And now Harknett takes the first pitch high and inside for ball one.
• 49:38
  One ball called.
• 49:40
  Demery on first base, two out in the fourth inning.
• 49:43
  One ball called on Harknett.
• 49:45
  Two looks the ball over, throws it back out to Stratton.
• 49:57
  Marty ready again, throws.
• 49:59
  Gabby hits the ball on the line and Appling leaps into the air to make a one-handed catch and is three out.
• 50:05
  Luke Appling leaps high into the air to make a one-handed stab.
• 50:09
  That would look like a sure line drive that time.
• 50:12
  And the White Sox defense again is pulling this club along,
• 50:16
  because Mr. Stratton has not been especially a better pitcher than Warnocky,
• 50:22
  but he's had much the better support, particularly in the case of Warnocky himself.
• 50:27
  So it's no run, one hit, one man left on base.
• 50:31
  In the fourth inning for the Cubs, score is still 3-1 in favor of the White Sox.
• 50:38
  Talking about him, the last half of the fourth with Jackie Hayes, the first man up.
• 50:59
  Warnocky's been out there warming up with Ken O'Day.
• 51:03
  Harknett's standing right back at Ken.
• 51:06
  And here is Jackie Hayes walking up there at the plate to be the first man at bat in the fourth inning.
• 51:13
  Hayes up there.
• 51:31
  Now the pitcher winds up, throws the first one, and Hayes takes it inside and low for ball one.
• 51:37
  You people probably heard this on the switchback to the studio,
• 51:40
  but the crowd's cheering when the third-inning score of the Yankee-Giants game goes up,
• 51:44
  which shows one of those old Yankee innings.
• 51:50
  And here's a wide one low for ball two, and the count is 2-0 on Jackie Hayes.
• 51:55
  First man at bat in the fourth inning for the White Sox.
• 52:02
  Here again winding up throws, and it's a high one inside for ball two.
• 52:07
  Rather over the inside corner across the chest for strike one.
• 52:11
  Look at the plate, not off that scoreboard. That isn't going to help any.
• 52:15
  2-1 on their strike two, the hitter fouls the ball back to the screen, and the count is 2 balls and 2 strikes.
• 52:21
  2-2 the count.
• 52:28
  2-2 with the pitcher ready once more.
• 52:41
  Here again starts to wind up, throws, and Jackie fouls this ball into the sand to the right of the plate,
• 52:47
  and it's 2-2, 2 balls and 2 strikes still on Jackie Hayes.
• 52:57
  Ernie, well, City Series Ernie here.
• 53:01
  How you doing, Ernie? Coffee looks all right.
• 53:04
  2-2 is the count, and Hayes swings the next hit, a high foul to the right of the plate.
• 53:09
  Cabaret is coming in from first base and makes the catch just about halfway between first base
• 53:16
  and the bench, and then he threw the ball to Hartley and threw it back there past him,
• 53:20
  and it goes on down the right field line where one of the boys from the bench catches it and throws it on in.
• 53:26
  And Jimmy Dyke steps up there to the plate.
• 53:39
  Dyke's up there at the plate with one out of the fourth inning.
• 53:43
  Warnocky starts to wind up, throws, and Jim swings, hit a high-bonded Jurgis,
• 53:47
  backs up and goes to his right a little, takes the ball, throws the first.
• 53:50
  Cabaret had made a swell stretch into the infield.
• 53:52
  He got that ball just off the ground and way into the infield, but Dyke's out for the second out.
• 53:59
  That makes it two out of the fourth inning for the stock, and Luke Sewell is at the back.
• 54:04
  Sewell up there at the plate, puts two out of the fourth inning for the white stock.
• 54:11
  Throws the first one, Luke takes a good strike over the heart of the plate about way past.
• 54:15
  One strike on Sewell.
• 54:19
  Warnocky again starts to wind up, throws, and the hitter takes strike two.
• 54:24
  Luke doesn't like that and slaps the bat on the ground a second and turns it back on the umpire.
• 54:29
  Oh, just barely knee-high.
• 54:31
  It seemed to be over the heart of the plate.
• 54:32
  Luke must have thought it was a little bit low.
• 54:34
  So it's two strikes on Sewell with the pitcher winding up again.
• 54:40
  Throws and the hitter takes a ball.
• 54:42
  It's over the plate, but this time it was too low, and the count is one ball and two strikes on Luke.
• 54:48
  White stock's leading three to one, last half of the fourth inning.
• 54:51
  Warnocky again winding up, throws, and it's ball two wide and low.
• 54:56
  So it's two balls and two strikes.
• 54:59
  Two on two on Luke.
• 55:08
  And the hitter starts to swing at the next, but he tried to stop, but he went on through with it, striking out for the third out.
• 55:14
  Tried to stop that swing, but the ball was started, the bat had started around too hard and he couldn't pull up on it.
• 55:21
  And so he strikes out for the third out in the fourth inning.
• 55:24
  No runs, no hits in the fourth inning for the stock.
• 55:28
  And the score is still three to one in favor of the white stock.
• 55:33
  Hubs coming to bat in the first half of the fifth inning with Johnny Gill the first man up.
• 55:54
  Should I shoot this red hot before I eat it, George?
• 55:56
  You think it'd be safer?
• 56:00
  I don't know, it doesn't seem to be particularly alive.
• 56:04
  It doesn't taste pretty good, I'll guarantee you.
• 56:06
  I wonder how I saw him when I took a mouthful.
• 56:29
  Well that mouthful was good, I don't know when I'll get back the next one.
• 56:32
  I am working here.
• 56:33
  Yeah.
• 56:35
  Gill hits the first pitch, an easy bounder down the haze, throws the first base.
• 56:39
  And Johnny is out for the first out in the fifth inning, bringing Bill Jorgensen back.
• 56:56
  Stratton winds up now, throws the first one and Jorgensen swings, hit a hard bounder down to Appleby and he gets it nicely.
• 57:02
  Throws the first and Jorgensen is out easily for the second out.
• 57:06
  That makes it two out in the fifth inning for the Cubs.
• 57:09
  And the next man up there, Warnocky the cup pitcher is walking slowly up in the bench.
• 57:15
  That's a nice hand for the fans.
• 57:17
  It doesn't look very much as though that very costly curve here may mean the ball game that something doesn't happen
• 57:23
  because since then he has gone along in great style, only one scratch hit being made off him.
• 57:31
  The man's first pitch, the Warnocky is a wide one for the ball.
• 57:38
  Stratton waits there for the next sign, has it, he's winding up.
• 57:41
  Throws and Dick gets ball two, it's inside across the way.
• 57:45
  And the count is two and nothing, two balls and no strikes on Warnocky.
• 57:49
  Stratton winding up, throws once more and he gets that one over the outside corner, letter high for a strike.
• 57:54
  And it's two balls and one strike on Warnocky.
• 57:58
  Two out for the Cubs in the fifth, White Sox leading three to one.
• 58:02
  There's ball three, a wide one low and it's three balls and one strike on Warnocky.
• 58:09
  Three and one to count, getting the wind up pitch and the hitter hits the ball,
• 58:13
  Bonder down to Dykes who got to throw the first base and Warnocky is out for the out.
• 58:21
  So he's halfling and Dykes all had a hand in retiring inside that time on throws to Benura.
• 58:28
  No runs, no hits in the first half of the fifth inning.
• 58:35
  And the White Sox still lead the coverage by a score of three to one.
• 58:38
  Stock is bad on the last half of the fifth with Monty Stratton the pitcher the first man up.
• 58:43
  Here goes another mouthful.
• 59:03
  The way this kid's been pitching since he got back in that lineup after all the operations and things,
• 59:09
  the kids look more and more as though the illness that caused him all that stay in the hospital
• 59:16
  and the long layoff to recover his strength and get back in shape
• 59:19
  may have cost the White Sox not only second place but possibly more
• 59:23
  because he certainly has been a great pitcher since he got back in there as he was before he was taken ill.
• 59:28
  Stratton at bat Warnocky's first pitch is a strike with a hard of the plate waste tie.
• 59:32
  One strike on Stratton and Warnocky winds up, throws again, Monty swings and hits the ball hard
• 59:42
  and Herman makes a great backhanded stop back at second base to get the ball close to first.
• 59:46
  Cabaretta drops it and the runner is safe.
• 59:49
  Herman made a wonderful stop back at second base, a great backhanded stop through the first.
• 59:55
  The throw is out there. There's an error charged but they haven't told us yet who is charged with it,
• 1:00:03
  whether Cabaretta for dropping the ball or Herman on the throw.
• 1:00:09
  The error is charged to Cabaretta for dropping the ball.
• 1:00:13
  It was a marvelous play by Herman but still drops the ball.
• 1:00:24
  So Stratton's on first base, nobody out of the fifth.
• 1:00:27
  Radcliffe hits the bounder down to Jurgis who gets it flipped to Billy Herman.
• 1:00:30
  He was ready to throw the first but the ball had been hit so slowly
• 1:00:33
  and Radcliffe was practically at first base and Bill held the ball letting Radcliffe reach first without a throw.
• 1:00:40
  He didn't have a chance of getting his man.
• 1:00:46
  So Rathbitt's on first base with one out of the fifth inning and Rosenthal is at bat.
• 1:00:56
  Warnocky watches first base throws and the hitter takes the curve ball wide and glows for ball one.
• 1:01:11
  It's already out there again. Throws and Rosenthal follows the ball back into the front of the second back down below us
• 1:01:19
  and it bounds back down into the field. It's one and one.
• 1:01:34
  One and one is the count now on Rosenthal, left handed hitter. Warnocky waits there again for the time.
• 1:01:41
  Swings around as he gets it and Thitches on the hitter swing did a long follow way down the left field line
• 1:01:48
  back underneath the second deck and he's one ball and two strikes.
• 1:02:11
  Warnocky steps up onto the slab again, watches the plate, puts it first and Thitches and the hitter hits the ball out through into left field for a base hit.
• 1:02:20
  Jorgens was playing pretty well to his left, couldn't get a hold of it because he had a long way to go and as a result
• 1:02:25
  the ball goes through into left field for Rosenthal's second hit of the day and fourth hit of the series.
• 1:02:32
  So the White Sox have runners on first and second with one out in the fifth inning and Mulehouse at bat.
• 1:02:50
  Warnocky ready now. Second base on Throes and Hoss takes a wide one with curving towards the plate but didn't curve soon enough and it's small one.
• 1:03:01
  One ball called.
• 1:03:07
  Warnocky throws again for ball two. It's wide and low and the count is two and nothing on Hoss. Two balls and no strikes.
• 1:03:14
  White Sox runners on first and second, one out and the White Sox are leading the Cubs by a score of three to one.
• 1:03:26
  And a pitcher stands there waiting again. Flings right back, takes another look back at second base.
• 1:03:32
  And Throes on, it's a strike over the heart of the plate about waist high to make the count two and one on Hoss.
• 1:03:37
  Two balls and one strike.
• 1:03:45
  Two balls and one strike and the pitcher waiting again. Warnocky has the sign, steps down the slab,
• 1:03:50
  back at second and Throes on the hitter swings, hit a foul. It's just up onto the roof of the stand above third base.
• 1:03:57
  Almost hit the front of the roof but just eased up over it and it's two and two. Two balls and two strikes on Hoss.
• 1:04:13
  It's like old times smelling that pipe, Gillward. I find I can still stand it, I don't know.
• 1:04:20
  Two and two is the count but just throws again and the hitter swings to foul the ball back to the screen.
• 1:04:24
  Hits still two balls and two strikes on Hoss. Remember White Sox runners on first and second, one out of the fifth inning.
• 1:04:31
  White Sox leading by a score of three to one.
• 1:04:40
  Warnocky just drives back again, ups up the ball.
• 1:04:48
  Around the runners then steps onto the slab and it's getting his time.
• 1:04:58
  And pitchers of the hitter hits the ball hard toward left field. Jurgis comes up with it nicely, throws to second.
• 1:05:02
  Herman Snow to first, completes the double play although Cabrata had to make a sensational reaching catch away out to the right.
• 1:05:09
  A fast and long double play. One of those plays that had to be made lightning fast or had been too late.
• 1:05:15
  And Cabrata redeemed himself that time after having let the first man get the base by dropping his throw.
• 1:05:21
  He made a very fine play to reach way out to the right and get Herman Tacey's throw to first to complete that one.
• 1:05:28
  So it's no run, one hit, one error and one man left on V.
• 1:05:34
  In the last half of the fifth inning and the score is still three to one in favor of the White Sox at the end of the fifth inning.
• 1:05:43
  Now I think Fred you've got a little message to say again, huh?
• 1:05:46
  Yes I have Hal Cotton. You know you've been saying that things were coming across the letters all afternoon.
• 1:05:50
  So supposing we say a few letters like this is the voice of labor.
• 1:05:55
  WCFL, Chicago.
• 1:05:58
  Oh I guess I see what you've got to do be a studio announcer. You've got to be able to come up with things like that quickies, huh?
• 1:06:04
  Oh, I get it.
• 1:06:08
  Should have taken longer though Fred, I'm still chewing.
• 1:06:13
  Here we go in the sixth inning. Galan is back, started off with the Cubs and the first pitch is too low at ball one.
• 1:06:20
  One ball on Galan. White Sox leading three to one.
• 1:06:26
  Augie swings the next at the high fly in the center field.
• 1:06:29
  Rosenthal is going back and he's under it now. Hevett hits one out of the sixth inning.
• 1:06:35
  One out of the sixth inning for the Cubs and Cabaretta is at bat.
• 1:06:41
  You know Cabaretta is at the plate.
• 1:06:48
  Yeah Mr. Rosenthal was throwing divots as he raced back to that one.
• 1:06:53
  Stratton throws the first one and Phil swings at a high one, tried to get around on it but he stopped it and hit it down toward the first base coaches box where Johnny Corden gets it.
• 1:07:02
  Throws it back to the pitcher.
• 1:07:05
  It's one strike on Cabaretta.
• 1:07:07
  That's with one out for the Cubs in the sixth inning.
• 1:07:09
  Stratton throws again and Phil takes the curve ball inside and low. The ball bounced into the air out of the catcher's glove.
• 1:07:15
  Landed out in front of the plate.
• 1:07:25
  And if it winds up once more, throws the other swing and fouls the ball back to the screen.
• 1:07:29
  And it's one and two, one ball and two strikes.
• 1:07:44
  One and two now with the pitcher ready again.
• 1:07:46
  He winds up, throws and Phil lines the ball into center field for a base hit.
• 1:07:52
  A single to center field by Cabaretta putting him on first base with nobody out of the sixth inning.
• 1:07:57
  And Billy Herman up there at the plate, Billy who hasn't had a base hit in a series so far and who had a terrific pump at the end of the season making only about two hits in his last five or six games.
• 1:08:11
  Herman at bat, one out of the sixth inning, Cabaretta on first base, scores three to one in favor of the white shot and Herman takes the first pitch in by his shoulders for ball one.
• 1:08:37
  And the ball coughs, ready again, throws for a strike, a beauty over the heart of the plate just about letter high and the hitter let it go by.
• 1:08:43
  So it's one and one.
• 1:08:49
  One and one is the count. And there is a ball wide and low making it two balls and one strike on Billy Herman.
• 1:08:56
  Two and one.
• 1:09:05
  Once again the pitch is ready. He throws and the hitter swings a high foul coming back toward us.
• 1:09:10
  Landed just in front of us in the second.
• 1:09:13
  The man caught it there and of course was catching it and landed him for a plunk back in his chair there and it's two and two on Billy Herman.
• 1:09:21
  Two balls and two strikes.
• 1:09:23
  I'll see this playing him fairly deep, a little bit to the right.
• 1:09:26
  Os is playing him pretty well toward the line and Rosenthal a little bit toward right center. And the next one, Herman tried to get away from it but the ball curved in and hit him on the right wrist or right hand.
• 1:09:37
  Charlie Grimm comes tearing into the coach's box and apparently hurt him pretty much.
• 1:09:41
  And Luke Sewell bends over him, Stratton comes in to take a look and the trainer, Andy Lottshaw comes running in.
• 1:09:48
  Woody Engert is the captain running out of the bench up there at the plate.
• 1:09:51
  That ball seemed to sail as it got up there at the plate. Here comes Doc Davis now, the club's position.
• 1:09:57
  Well, they'll have a real delegation up there.
• 1:09:59
  And Herman shows any signs of being hurt that way. You can count on it. He's plenty hurt because he's one of these boys that doesn't show much in the way of emotion when he gets bumped or cut or anything else.
• 1:10:10
  And that ball seemed to hang out there in front of him.
• 1:10:13
  He started to step one way and then another and then it shot in toward him and hit him.
• 1:10:18
  Doc Davis is now working on his wrist to see whether it might possibly be fractured or if he can see any signs of it he'll go right out of there.
• 1:10:32
  And they're all standing around. In the meantime, Kevred had gone to second base.
• 1:10:40
  And he's standing out there talking to Hapling. He's also there.
• 1:10:43
  Herman walks away from the crowd and stands there and leans over on his knee. Charlie Grimm talking to him, telling him if he doesn't feel all right to get out of there.
• 1:10:53
  And Billy probably wants to stay in.
• 1:10:57
  Dredden starts back to the mound to throw a few to Sewell. He loosened up there while the rest of the boys still gather around.
• 1:11:05
  Jimmy Dykes, the manager of the stock, is also up there taking a big look and Vanura is in there also.
• 1:11:14
  Herman finally decides to go on down to first base. That right arm is hanging alongside of him as he walks down there, but he gets a nice hand.
• 1:11:23
  Vanura walking alongside of him, the two of them talking.
• 1:11:38
  Well, he finally reaches first base.
• 1:11:42
  And the next man up there is Frank Demery. Now the White Sox start a couple of pitches warming up in the bullpen. Kane and the inevitable Mr. Brown warming up out there.
• 1:11:55
  And here is Demery at bat. Hub runners on first and second, one out in the sixth inning.
• 1:12:00
  And Demery hits the first one, a line drive to Hayes who gets it, throws back to Vanura for a double play. A line smash right into Hayes' hands.
• 1:12:08
  He doesn't have to move out of his tracks to get it. And a quick throw to first base. Doubles Herman and ends the threat just like that.
• 1:12:15
  Bang, without any delay at all at all. It's no run, one hit, one man left on base in the first half of the sixth inning.
• 1:12:26
  And the score is still three to one in favor of the White Sox. White Sox is bad in the last half of the sixth with Vanura the first man up there.
• 1:12:33
  Vanura the first man at bat. That ball was really tagged. That's the kind of a ball that all the New York writers cry about every time DiMaggio hits one and it gets caught.
• 1:12:43
  Oh, it was a foot to the right or a foot to the left and it would have been a two base hit.
• 1:12:47
  The trouble is a foot to the right or a foot to the left doesn't mean a thing if you hit it right at somebody.
• 1:12:52
  William English is going in to play second base now. And Billy Herman tried to throw a ball, couldn't control it, and is walking off.
• 1:12:59
  English is playing second base. That injury was just too much for Billy.
• 1:13:10
  And Herman gets a hand as he walks off the field.
• 1:13:20
  That's your Warnocky out there. Gets his time, stalks it, throws, and the hitter hits the ball right to the good hard line single. That ball all but took back right off.
• 1:13:29
  Warnocky is going to win with De'Briam. And the first base with nobody on it. White Sox with a loop pass.
• 1:13:36
  League leading hitter, major league leading hitter, shortstop right-handed hitter is at bat.
• 1:13:42
  Benura on first base. Affling up there at the plate. He has nobody out in the sixth inning. Warnocky ready. Pitches. And Affling drives the ball into right field for another base hit.
• 1:13:52
  Right fielder, Demery, grabs the ball, fumbles it, but picks it up again and Benura turns and goes back to second base.
• 1:13:59
  And it's Affling's second hit of the game and third hit of the series. So the White Sox have runners on first and second, nobody up.
• 1:14:07
  And Jackie Hayes is up there at the plate. Boy who has done great work a lot of part of the season.
• 1:14:14
  And proved at least these justified things I said about him for three or four years when he really had his chance and got in there and could bear down one of second baseman and tough hitter he is.
• 1:14:25
  Although not only tough this year, he hit 312 for the season, which is a lot of hits.
• 1:14:30
  Comes again and starts Henshaw warming up and Root, Henshaw and Root warming up in the right field bullpen.
• 1:14:38
  And the Sox are keeping a pitcher warmed up down their side of the field.
• 1:14:46
  Hayes, and now Hayes Buntz the first one, hat catcher throws the first.
• 1:14:50
  English gutting over there to take the stroll on the sacrifice and it moves the runners to second and third with only one out of the six innings and Jimmy Dykes always dangerous in the pinch is up there at the plate.
• 1:15:02
  Now we have one of those tough pitchers in the pinch against a tough hitter in the pinch and we'll see what happens.
• 1:15:08
  The infield playing in part way to the infield grass, not all the way.
• 1:15:12
  And they're going to walk Dykes and take a chance on Sewell and walk Dykes on purpose. It isn't so much to take a chance on Sewell as it is to get the bases full where fourth plays are possible.
• 1:15:23
  As it is now, there's no chance of a fourth play and so they want to get those bases full for that reason and gamble on that proposition.
• 1:15:30
  There's the fourth ball and Dykes gets the base on.
• 1:15:34
  He took the fourth one wide. Gaby started to throw the ball to third as Dykes walked across in front of him. He didn't intend to and so Dykes turned around and acted so he was going to be real mad at Gaby.
• 1:15:45
  And as he swung the back of him to throw it to the bat boy, he swung it right across in front of Leo and that caused a laugh from everybody.
• 1:15:51
  Now the bases are full with one out of the six innings and Luke Sewell, another dangerous boy with the bases occupied out there, takes the first pitch inside and low for ball.
• 1:16:01
  The infielders have moved back. That is the second baseman and shortstop move back. First and third baseman still in fairly close.
• 1:16:10
  He winds up once more, throws and the hitter hits a beauty into center field for a base hit and Galan races over to get it.
• 1:16:17
  One run in, second run scoring, Dykes pulling up at third base and the shot's single to center field by two.
• 1:16:23
  Scores Benura, scores Affling and puts Dykes on third base. So the White Sox have runners on first and third.
• 1:16:32
  One out, two runs home in the sixth inning and now leading the scubs by a score of five to one, the same score by which they won yesterday.
• 1:16:41
  And Monty Stratton, White Sox pitcher, is coming up there to the plate. Stratton of that.
• 1:16:48
  Oh, Sewell, the old Lucius Luke, same way as he did all through the season when there were runs out there to score.
• 1:16:53
  You could almost always count on Sewell getting a hold of one, hitting it somewhere.
• 1:16:59
  Stratton hits the first pitch, a drive in left field for another base hit. Gill is coming down there, the runner for first going for third.
• 1:17:05
  Gill gets the ball, throws it into third base. The runner bound slides in and the ball bounds out that fast third base.
• 1:17:12
  Jurgis gets over there, gets it, but Stratton slides into second base. Ball bounded and hits.
• 1:17:20
  The runner has been split into third and then as Hack stood there looking for it, Stratton's on for second.
• 1:17:25
  Jurgis had to come all the way over to get the ball and throw it to second base.
• 1:17:29
  And as a result, the runners are on second and third with another run home.
• 1:17:34
  Stratton's still appearing as a base hitter of considerable worth and merit as he did in that last game of the season.
• 1:17:44
  George, did you notice whether they called him merit on that throw in or not?
• 1:17:49
  Did anybody look up to see?
• 1:17:53
  And now Henshaw on who?
• 1:17:59
  Aaron Hack, for heaven's sake, they called Aaron Hack and he never had the ball in his hands.
• 1:18:05
  How do you figure that out? Well, that's all right.
• 1:18:08
  Henshaw is coming in on the infield to lead Warnocky.
• 1:18:19
  And Long turns and starts over to the dugout.
• 1:18:27
  And Henshaw, Little Roy, who is a southsider, lived out here in this part of town and went to school out here at the University of Chicago, is now pitching for the Cubs.
• 1:18:43
  White Sox have three runs home, one out. Dillard runners on second and third.
• 1:18:48
  And Radcliffe is the next hitter. Henshaw finishing the warm-up bases Radcliffe now.
• 1:19:01
  He comes up there. Henshaw starts to wind up, throws, and it's a very bad ball, wide and low for ball one.
• 1:19:16
  Wakes up there again, winds up once more. And there's ball two, another ball, it breaks too wide, and the county is two and nothing. Two balls and no strikes.
• 1:19:35
  Roy waiting there for the next time. He winds up. And pitches for ball three, another ball, it curves all together too wide and low, and it's three and nothing.
• 1:19:46
  Now in addition to the fact that Brutus stopped warming up and Bryant is warming up for the Cubs.
• 1:19:56
  Henshaw gets his time, winds up again, throws, and the hitter takes strike one. It's over the heart of the plate, just a little below the weight.
• 1:20:06
  Two run the count, it's three and one. Three balls and one strike.
• 1:20:15
  And ball four comes by wide and low. Radcliffe gets the base on balls and the bases are full.
• 1:20:33
  Rosenthal up there now, Rosenthal is back, already the leading hitter of the series and robbed one hit a little while ago on a good feeling play.
• 1:20:45
  Made two hits so far today, two yesterday. Larry Rosenthal is back and the first hit curves pretty wide and low for ball one.
• 1:20:53
  Coming up there to play and then curve very sharply and way outside. So it's one ball called.
• 1:21:10
  Henshaw waits out there again, gets the sign, winds up, throws for a strike over the inside corner waist high to make the count one ball and one strike on Rosenthal.
• 1:21:20
  One and one the count. Henshaw winds up again, pitches the hitter, follows the ball above the left of the plate into the second deck and it's one and two.
• 1:21:32
  One ball and two strikes on Rosenthal. One and two the count.
• 1:21:46
  Waiting out there again, takes quite a while, finally starts to wind up.
• 1:21:51
  Throws and Larry swings it a ball hard down to Cabaretta who grabs for it and it bounds away from him and gets back to Englick who throws the first to get the runner.
• 1:22:00
  But the runner is safe. Cabaretta after fumbling the ball started after but Englick waved him back the first and by the time he got back there.
• 1:22:10
  The runner is safe and is charged with another error for Cabaretta who missed tagging the bag. That rule is definitely covered when a man fails to tag a base why he is charged with an error.
• 1:22:30
  And now here is Mule Haas with that Haas up there at the plate. Pitch for a ball wide base and skills full.
• 1:22:43
  Wines up again, throws and it's a wide one low for ball two and Hartner turns around and speaks a little piece about that one.
• 1:22:59
  Four runs home in this inning, White Docks now leading seven to one. Jurgis comes over and talks to Henshaw for a moment.
• 1:23:11
  So he throws a gun and it's a strike over the heart of the plate above Nehi and Mule naturally playing the string out of ways to let it go by.
• 1:23:18
  So it's two and one, infield playing in very close.
• 1:23:21
  A spacious ball, only one out, four runs home in the sixth. Henshaw again winding up throws and it's very wide and low for ball three.
• 1:23:30
  Way, way outside and it's three balls and one strike. Three and one on Hart.
• 1:23:41
  Henshaw waiting out there again, winds up, throws and Mule gets the ball forward wide and a run is forced across the plate. A run is forced home as Haas walks.
• 1:23:52
  He's fifth run of the inning and the White Docks lead eight to one and English walks in to talk to Hartner at a moment and looks over towards the bench as all they may expect to try to come in there.
• 1:24:06
  A spacious skillful five runs home in the sixth inning. English is talking to a fireworm's feet who turns the tell field announcer what to announce and a pitcher starts to use the right field bullpen.
• 1:24:22
  Hartner's out there talking to Henshaw, leaning on his shoulder. Roy just, frankly, he had a curveball breaking off today.
• 1:24:29
  Just about as tough a looking curveball as I've looked at for a long time but he didn't have control of it and Henshaw is one of these type of young pitchers that if the control isn't there he doesn't have much chance of going anywhere.
• 1:24:43
  He had that ball breaking a foot to a foot and a half many times, never less than six or eight inches and breaking a little bit too far away from the plate as a result he was in the hole most of the time and ended up by walking that man to fourth in a run.
• 1:24:58
  However, there was a chance of his being out of the inning if Cabaret had the feel of the ball hit right at him.
• 1:25:05
  He wasn't charged with an error on that but he was charged with an error when he failed to touch first after taking throwback of the ball from English.
• 1:25:13
  Now Clay Bryant, big husky right-handed pitcher, is out there on the mound finishing his warm-up.
• 1:25:35
  Bryant finishes the warm-up and is ready now as Zeke Bonora steps up at the plate.
• 1:25:52
  Clay takes a look around to see where everybody's playing out there and now gets ready to pitch the first one to Bonora.
• 1:26:01
  He's up and throws and Zeke takes the curve ball wide for ball one. One ball called.
• 1:26:16
  Pitcher ready again, starts to wind up, throws and it's ball two. It's over the plate but too low and the count is two and nothing on Bonora.
• 1:26:31
  Two and nothing is the count for the pitcher ready again.
• 1:26:37
  And they're watching the plate, got this tiny winding up and throws and Zeke jumps back to take the third ball, a bad one and he may walk the course in another run.
• 1:26:47
  The count.
• 1:26:58
  And the next one comes down the middle for a strike. Zeke put on a big act that time, started for first base to the forefoot, cut the heart of the plate away.
• 1:27:07
  Couldn't have been more of a strike anyway. It's three and one, three balls and one strike on Bonora.
• 1:27:16
  Bryant rubbing up the ball again.
• 1:27:21
  And ball four comes inside and Zeke also gets the base on balls and another run is forced across the plate. Sixth run of the innings.
• 1:27:30
  Bringing Luke Appling to bat for the White Sox leading now by a score of nine to one in the sixth inning.
• 1:27:37
  White Sox leading nine to one. I guess they saw what the Yankees did down there in New York and decided they had to put on a big inning too.
• 1:27:45
  Luke Appling up there, Bryant starts to wind up, throws and Luke takes a high one inside for ball one. A slow ball, change of pace.
• 1:27:54
  Rude is warming up now for the Cubs again.
• 1:28:01
  Winding up, throws once more and it's a strike. Fair ball breaking away from the hitter. Caught the inside corner above wayside and make it one and one.
• 1:28:15
  One and one hit here. It's the next one, a beauty in the left center for a base hit. Two more runs are scoring.
• 1:28:20
  The runner for first, telling the third and Gil's throw is very wide. By the time Hack recovers it, Appling has raised to second.
• 1:28:29
  Bryant singles the left center by Appling, scoring Rosenfall is hot.
• 1:28:35
  With two more runs, eight runs this inning. White Sox now leading by a score of 11 to one and they still have runners on second and third.
• 1:28:51
  There's only one out, the one out being a sacrifice by Hayes who was not that early on the inning.
• 1:28:59
  It feels still playing back as Jackie takes the first hit for a strike. Over the heart of the plate, White Sox.
• 1:29:11
  There's the ball, making the count one ball and one strike on Hayes. One and one the count.
• 1:29:25
  Bryant winds up, throws again. Jackie swings in to high bounder. Bryant gets it. The runners hold their bases so he throws the first, getting Hayes for the second out.
• 1:29:35
  Making it two out of the seventh inning and bringing Dyches to back. Dyches up there at the plate.
• 1:29:46
  Dyches was walking purposely with runners on second and third earlier in the inning, but that started to get in the work when Mr. Stuhl stepped up there and smacked one.
• 1:29:57
  And Dyches hit the foul down to Billy Webb coaching at third. He grabs it, throws it out the hack, goes on around the covered field which still seems to be throwing a lot of fire although they're way, way behind right now.
• 1:30:15
  Winds up, throws again and Dyches takes a slow one, the curve ball wide for Borlewood and the count is one ball and one strike. One and one the count.
• 1:30:29
  Bryant throws again and Dyches falls down under one that almost hit him in the shoulders and he takes it for ball two. So the count is two balls and one strike. Two and one on Dyches.
• 1:30:45
  Ready once more, starts to wind up, throws and it's a ball that hits the bat and hits the ground and then bounce and falls there over to the right of the plate. It's still two and two. Two balls and two strikes.
• 1:31:02
  Bryant waits there rubbing up that ball pretty carefully.
• 1:31:09
  Finally starts his wind up and throws and Dyches.
• 1:31:17
  Dyches did the same thing that time he did before and he looked at the bat and he looked at the plate and he said I couldn't do it again if I tried.
• 1:31:23
  He starts to swing and then as he pulls back, he doesn't pull back quick enough, the ball hits the bat and bounds down onto the plate and then counts there over to the right against the stand.
• 1:31:34
  Two and two and there's ball three. It's inside across the way and they get three balls and two strikes on Jimmy Dyches.
• 1:31:41
  Three and two the count.
• 1:31:48
  Three and two now.
• 1:31:52
  He throws again and it's ball four wide and Dyches gets his second walk of the inning. Once more filling the bases for Mr. Lucia's Luke Steele. Mr. Steele is up there again of the Ohio but formerly of the Alabama Steele.
• 1:32:07
  He's singled with the bases full earlier in the inning to drive in the first two of these eight runs that have scored.
• 1:32:15
  White Sox are leading 11 to one on the last half of the sixth and Sewell takes the first pitch to curve ball wide and blow for ball one.
• 1:32:28
  White Sox again has the sign, he's winding up.
• 1:32:32
  He throws and two swing, get a pop fly which Anglic is calling for. He has it, hits three out and they finally retire the sign and the four of these White Sox fans come up with a big howl because they've been waiting for this all year, in fact for several years, very several.
• 1:32:50
  In the last half of the sixth inning, great run.
• 1:32:55
  And we see one, two, three, four, five, six, two hours and three.
• 1:33:07
  And the four is 11 to one in favor of the White Sox at the end of the sixth inning.
• 1:33:18
  First man at bat for the Cubs in the seventh will be Hack and now Mr. Stratton doesn't have a very difficult jump.
• 1:33:26
  One more bite of this dog down here.
• 1:33:28
  Hey some of the Cubs fans are f****** spinning there standing up.
• 1:33:43
  This isn't a hot dog, now it's an ice dog.
• 1:34:10
  Here we go in the seventh inning, Stanley Hack at bat for the Cubs.
• 1:34:14
  Stratton starts to wind up, hits here, Dan takes the curve ball and catches the outside corner knee high for a strike.
• 1:34:21
  One strike on Hack.
• 1:34:25
  Stratton throws again, hitter swings and it's a bounded out of haze and goes to his left to get it, throws to first and Stan is out for the first out of the seventh inning.
• 1:34:33
  One out of the seventh inning for the Cubs and Gabby Harknett is at bat.
• 1:34:52
  Gabby takes the first one for a strike, it's over the heart of the paper, down just about knee high, not much more than that.
• 1:35:00
  One strike and he hits the next one a beauty down pass, third base going on down with Radcliffe tearing over for it.
• 1:35:07
  Gabby makes the turn but stops it first, goes back there, one that's all comes in from Radcliffe.
• 1:35:13
  Gabby as we've mentioned there's no particular gazelle on his feet and while most fellas might have had a double on that, Gabby played it safe.
• 1:35:22
  I mean after all you've crouched around behind that plate as many years as he has and you won't be doing much gazelling either.
• 1:35:31
  Allen is going out there to run now in place of Harknett.
• 1:35:37
  Allen running for Harknett.
• 1:35:44
  Gabby gets the hand, the son of the fans, he walks over to the bench and Gill steps up there taking the first pitch over the plate for Tullo and it's ball one.
• 1:35:53
  One ball called.
• 1:36:00
  He throws again and Johnny fouls the ball on the ground to the right of the plate.
• 1:36:05
  That makes it one and one, one ball and one strike on Johnny Gill.
• 1:36:14
  Stratton wakes up there, slaps the ball into the glove a couple of times, uses the rising bag, steps up on the slab, swings around ready to pitch.
• 1:36:23
  Pitch is and it's a high one wide for ball two making it count two balls and one strike.
• 1:36:30
  It's a high one that's a count.
• 1:36:42
  Ready out there again he throws and Gill hits a long drive away up deep right field but it's foul,
• 1:36:47
  ball against the right field wall, wouldn't have gone in but it was outside by several feet and it's two balls and two strikes on Gill.
• 1:36:55
  That's the left handed hitter.
• 1:37:07
  Stratton used the rising bag as another ball to pick, he's ready once again, swings around as he gets the time.
• 1:37:14
  Pitchers and Gill swings, hit a pop ball to the left of the plate, Sewell is over there waiting for it, has it and it's two out of the sevens innings.
• 1:37:39
  Jurgis up there now, two out of the sevens innings of the cup, Allen running for heart and that's still on first base.
• 1:37:46
  Score 11 to one, over the white side.
• 1:37:54
  Throws and Jurg takes a strike over the outside corner about way high, one strike on Jurgis.
• 1:38:05
  Ready out there again, throws and he swings in a high fly to short center field, Hayes is going back, Rodenthal coming in and Jackie lets Larry come on in to make the catch after a long run for the third out.
• 1:38:17
  And it ends the first half of the seventh inning with no runs, one hit, one man left on base and now the White Sox crowd which is by far the biggest percentage of this audience today sets up for it.
• 1:38:30
  The seventh inning stretch and with a few cheers and yells they get the old kinks out of the legs as the White Sox come in there to take their turn at bat.
• 1:38:39
  In the last half of the seventh inning with Marty Stratton, he first man up, Stratton who as I said in the latter part of the season, last couple of games hit very well and has hit hard today.
• 1:38:54
  Only a great play robbed him of a base hit in the fifth and then he hit one in the sixth and hit it plenty hard to drive in a run and he later scored one himself.
• 1:39:02
  Ken O'Day is now out there to catch for the Cubs.
• 1:39:12
  And the first man at bat in the seventh inning is Marty Stratton.
• 1:39:18
  Were you saying you wanted to say something Mr. Fowler?
• 1:39:22
  Well, I'd like to say this is the voice of labor, WCFL Chicago.
• 1:39:29
  Well that's what you wanted to say, that's perfectly okay, I don't know why you shouldn't say it, in fact you didn't say it.
• 1:39:34
  Here's Stratton at bat, starts the last half of the seventh inning, swings wide and misses the first one for a strike, one strike on Stratton.
• 1:39:43
  Bryant waiting out there again has the sign, starts to wind up and Fitches and Marty swings in a high fly and it's left center,
• 1:39:52
  Gillan is jogging in under it, he's waiting has it and it's one out in the seventh inning for the stock.
• 1:40:01
  One on the seventh and Rip Ratscliff, White Sox left fielder, is up there at the plate.
• 1:40:07
  Ratscliff at bat.
• 1:40:17
  She winds up, throws the first one on the ripper, takes a wide one across the waist, or ball one, one ball called.
• 1:40:34
  If you're ready once more, winds up again, throws and it's a strike over the outside corner above the knees so the count is one ball and one strike.
• 1:40:42
  On Ratscliff, one and one the count, Bryant again taking that swinging wind up, throws a slow one which Rip lets float wide and low, a curved ball for ball two.
• 1:40:53
  And it's two balls and one strike on the ripper.
• 1:40:56
  Two and one the count.
• 1:41:04
  She winds up, throws again for ball three wide across the waist and it's three balls and one strike on Ratscliff.
• 1:41:11
  Three and one.
• 1:41:19
  Ready out there, winds up, throws again and it's a strike over the outside corner across the knees to make it three and two.
• 1:41:26
  Three balls and two strikes on Ratscliff.
• 1:41:30
  Three and two the count.
• 1:41:37
  She swings again to hit a barter, English is in front of it, gets it, throws the first and it's two out in the seventh inning.
• 1:41:47
  Two out of the seventh inning for the stock and Larry Rosenthal again is at bat.
• 1:41:54
  He's made four hits and eight times of bats in this area.
• 1:42:03
  That thing has four hits and six times of bats so he's now the senior series leading hitter.
• 1:42:09
  And here's the first pitch to Rosenthal to take the wide one across the waist for a strike across the outside corner at bat.
• 1:42:16
  That was a ball.
• 1:42:17
  I looked at the board, I didn't see the umpire's hand go up and the board showed a strike but they changed it to a ball.
• 1:42:22
  So it's ball one and there's ball two wide across the waist making it two and nothing, two balls and no strikes on Rosenthal.
• 1:42:35
  Two and nothing is the count.
• 1:42:36
  She's ready again, winds up, throws and Larry swings and this is a curve ball, a slow curve for strike one.
• 1:42:44
  Making it two balls and one strike.
• 1:42:50
  Rounds one across.
• 1:42:59
  All right, taking that easy wind up, throws again, Larry gets strike two, a fast one over the outside corner, a little below the waist.
• 1:43:05
  Making two balls and two strikes on Rosenthal. Two and two to count.
• 1:43:16
  She's winding up.
• 1:43:19
  Throws again and it's a high one that hits the catcher's glove, bounds off to the left of the plate and it's still three and two. Three balls and two strikes on Larry.
• 1:43:39
  Three and two is the count for the pitcher. Ready once more, he starts to wind up again.
• 1:43:46
  Better swing to follow ball back to the screen. It's still three balls and two strikes.
• 1:43:51
  Still three and two on Rosenthal.
• 1:44:04
  Three and two with the pitcher. Ready once more.
• 1:44:06
  Winding up.
• 1:44:10
  And he pitches for ball four, Larry gets the base on ball to put him on first base with two outs in the seventh inning on Mule Hoss, is it that?
• 1:44:21
  Hoss up there at the plate.
• 1:44:33
  Right, has the sign, he's ready to first base. Throws on the header, takes the ball at the inside of the lower deck, comes up with it ready.
• 1:44:41
  Finger in Rosenthal, a fast man might be on the wire, have a big lead.
• 1:44:46
  And of course the rumor still is naturally over in this league, statements in the national, that he's throwing as though it should be perhaps.
• 1:44:54
  Still watching first base. Throws on the header, takes a wide one across the knees for ball two.
• 1:45:00
  And the count is two and nothing, two balls and no strikes on Hoss.
• 1:45:04
  Two and nothing to count.
• 1:45:14
  Has the sign out there again.
• 1:45:17
  And pitches and it's ball three. Well, it's wide across the waist.
• 1:45:21
  Nowadays, suddenly looks at the ball after another one and without further ado umpire orange beheads it to him.
• 1:45:27
  Throwing the other one out from the end of, over to the socks bench without even examining it on the count is three and nothing.
• 1:45:33
  Three balls and no strikes.
• 1:45:43
  Three balls and no strikes, it's ready out there again.
• 1:45:46
  Throws and it's a high one wide for ball four.
• 1:45:49
  And Hoss also gets a base on the wall, moving Rosenfall to second base and the White Dog Dev Runners on first and second.
• 1:45:57
  Two out of the seventh inning and Zeke Minora is at bat.
• 1:46:01
  Minora out there at the plate.
• 1:46:11
  Out there, wipes his hands dry, swings around the flat.
• 1:46:19
  And the first pitch is so close to Zeke he has to ballboard ball down to get away from it and take it for ball one.
• 1:46:26
  Well, Dave grabs the ball, throws it back out there to the pitcher and Bryant waits there again.
• 1:46:32
  Swings around on the rubber, looks back at second pitches and it's ball two.
• 1:46:36
  It's inside and low. Bryant's control is ordinarily pretty good.
• 1:46:39
  But it certainly isn't out there today.
• 1:46:41
  He watched a couple men in his sixth inning and now he's watched two already in the seventh.
• 1:46:49
  As runners on first and second, it's two out.
• 1:46:52
  White Dog leading 11 to one.
• 1:46:54
  Bryant throws again and it's a strike.
• 1:46:56
  He's got the outside corner, crossed the shoulders, making two balls in one strike.
• 1:47:01
  Bryant wanted to count.
• 1:47:07
  And Zeke swings in a high-flying foul to the right of the plate.
• 1:47:10
  O'Day is jogging down there calling for the ball, holds it, and it's three out, ending the seventh inning.
• 1:47:18
  No runs, no hits, two men left on base for the White Dog.
• 1:47:24
  And at the end of the seventh inning, the White Dogs are leading the Cavaliers by a score of 11 to one,
• 1:47:31
  a rather overwhelming margin in any man's league.
• 1:47:36
  Now somebody's trying to come to bat in place.
• 1:47:42
  Little are coming to bat in place of Bryant in the last half of the seventh inning.
• 1:47:53
  Around the first half of the eighth inning, I'm still as tired to figure out what team is up to start an inning.
• 1:47:59
  When you talk about Cubs or White Dogs, you always figure them, the second team at best.
• 1:48:06
  The start of the eighth and Willard is batting for Bryant.
• 1:48:15
  Right-handed hitter, that's up there to the plate.
• 1:48:23
  And Stratton's first pitch is inside and low for 4-1.
• 1:48:28
  One ball called.
• 1:48:31
  On he winds up again, throws, and the hitter takes a strike over the inside corner waist high,
• 1:48:35
  and the count is one ball and one strike on Willard.
• 1:48:39
  One and one to count.
• 1:48:42
  Ball to a curved ball, very wide and low runs, the count is two and one, two balls and one strike.
• 1:48:52
  On Kesselstein again, winds up, throws, and Jeans swings in a slow-bounder down the third base line.
• 1:48:58
  Dyches comes in nicely and fires the ball across the infield with Benoit digging it out of the dirt
• 1:49:03
  and hanging onto it for the first out in the eighth inning.
• 1:49:06
  One out in the eighth inning for the Cubs.
• 1:49:09
  And Augie Gelland, leadoff man and center fielder, steps up there to the plate.
• 1:49:13
  Gelland is back.
• 1:49:22
  One of the warm-up balls in the stock bullpen.
• 1:49:28
  Come on, brother, got clear off the back of some shortstop position in left field,
• 1:49:31
  so they had to call time while Affleck went back to get it and throw it over to warm-up catcher there.
• 1:49:38
  Now Gelland watches the first pitch come over the outside corner a little above the knees for strike one.
• 1:49:43
  One strike to count.
• 1:49:47
  Winds up again, throws, and it's a slow one that clips inside and low for ball one.
• 1:49:52
  Make the count, one ball and one strike on Gelland.
• 1:49:56
  One and one to count.
• 1:49:58
  Throws once more and Augie gets the ball two wide and low.
• 1:50:02
  So it's two balls and one strike.
• 1:50:07
  Two and one, with the pitcher ready again.
• 1:50:10
  Waits out there for the sign. He has it. He's winding up.
• 1:50:13
  Throws and Augie gets the third ball wide.
• 1:50:16
  And it's three balls and one strike on Gelland.
• 1:50:19
  Three and one.
• 1:50:22
  Starting winding up. Throws again and Augie gets the second strike.
• 1:50:25
  It's over the outside corner, waist high.
• 1:50:28
  And Augie, who made the usual start, first comes back to the plate.
• 1:50:32
  And one, three and two rather.
• 1:50:35
  And Gelland swings at an easy parter off the haze and gets it on the second hop.
• 1:50:39
  Throws to first and Augie is out for the second out of the eighth inning.
• 1:50:47
  Two out of the eighth inning for the Cubs.
• 1:50:49
  And Cabaretta is up there at the plate.
• 1:51:01
  Cabaretta swings and drives the ball into center field for another base hit.
• 1:51:06
  Here's the second hit of the game.
• 1:51:10
  And it puts Phil on first base with two out of the eighth inning.
• 1:51:13
  And Woody English up there. Woody who replaced Billy Herman after Herman was hit in the right arm or wrist with a pitch ball.
• 1:51:28
  Throws the first one and Woody gets a good strike. It's over the heart of the plate, a little above the knee.
• 1:51:32
  One strike on English.
• 1:51:38
  Ready once more. Throws and Woody takes a wide one and catches the ball to first.
• 1:51:42
  But Cabaretta went back standing up, hitting a throw.
• 1:51:45
  He was all ready to slide but he saw that dual throw was a little bit low and outside the bag.
• 1:51:50
  So he came in standing up.
• 1:51:52
  It's one and one, one ball and one strike on English.
• 1:51:57
  And he hits the next for a high foul down the right field line and back into the stands.
• 1:52:01
  Cabaretta was around second base but he turns and scrolls back to first.
• 1:52:06
  Quite a scramble for that ball down there in the stands.
• 1:52:10
  One on three to count, one ball and two strikes.
• 1:52:23
  And Woody started for the next one but stopped and pulled back to take it inside across the way for the second ball.
• 1:52:29
  And there's two balls and two strikes on Woody English.
• 1:52:32
  It's back for the cover from the east and he was two out. Cabaretta on first base.
• 1:52:36
  White stock leading 11 to one.
• 1:52:41
  Trotting ready again, scrolls and it's ball three high and inside. Run the count of three and two on Ellie. Three balls and three strikes.
• 1:52:55
  Trotting, opens the ball up a little bit then walks back onto the rubber. He's ready to pitch one small.
• 1:53:01
  With a runner on the go on the three and two count, the inter hits another small.
• 1:53:05
  One of the fans missed the ball over there and it bounded out of his hands. Started bounding along the front.
• 1:53:12
  Just under the railing, just before dropped over, some other fan managed to grab it and keep it upstairs.
• 1:53:21
  Three and two is the count but you're ready again. Rolls and English hits a high fly in the right field.
• 1:53:26
  Hart is going back under it, still going back and Bradford has hit his club and bounds over against the stand.
• 1:53:32
  English pulls up at second base and Cabaretta is going and it's a long two base hit.
• 1:53:39
  It's a base to the hole in right field. Hart seems undecided for a moment and then when he did start going back, as Hart think he could go, he couldn't quite reach it and he hit his club.
• 1:53:49
  So a little forceful and deliberate George, he catches the ball down. Isn't it? No. It must be change. As soon as you open the door I can tell which one it was.
• 1:54:03
  And now Demery at bat takes the first one for a strike over the outside corner above Mihai.
• 1:54:09
  One strike count, going now 11 to two in favor of the white shot.
• 1:54:14
  English on second base, two out one run home and Demery takes the ball wide and the count is one and one.
• 1:54:22
  One ball and one strike on Demery.
• 1:54:32
  Demery swings around ready, one more throw and Frank hits a pop fly out, back to bat, Link Lucas back in the grass calling for the ball he has it and it's three out.
• 1:54:45
  In the eighth inning, one run, two hits, one man left on base.
• 1:54:50
  In the first half of the eighth inning, over the cup and going into the last half of the eighth the score is 11 to two in favor of the white shot.
• 1:55:04
  Charlie Root, better in right hander, the cup is walking in to resume the pitching chores and Charlie Grimm is waiting out there.
• 1:55:13
  Charlie gets a hand from the fans and feeds them out.
• 1:55:44
  Charlie's going through his warm up up there.
• 1:55:49
  With Appling standing over here with his hand on his hip, leaning on the bat, watching him.
• 1:55:53
  He'll be the first man to stay tuned.
• 1:55:56
  This is by far not Charlie Root's first city series game.
• 1:56:03
  Charlie finishes the warm up and Luke steps up there to the plate.
• 1:56:08
  Appling starts the last half of the eighth inning.
• 1:56:17
  Starts to wind up, throws and Luke jumps back to take a ball inside and low for four one.
• 1:56:23
  One ball called.
• 1:56:26
  Winding up the game, Pitcher, Appling hits an easy boundary back at Root who gets a full depression.
• 1:56:35
  Appling is out for the first out in the eighth inning.
• 1:56:39
  One out in the eighth inning for the white shot and Jackie Hayes is at bat.
• 1:56:47
  He winds up and throws and Jackie swings it high flat out into center field and Galan racing in makes the catch for the second out.
• 1:57:03
  He had to go pretty well over toward right center to make that catch on the run.
• 1:57:07
  And it's two out in the eighth inning with Jimmy Dykes now at bat.
• 1:57:23
  Luke gets the time, starts to wind up, throws and Dykes swings and misses a curve ball for strike one.
• 1:57:30
  Strike on Jim.
• 1:57:40
  One strike to count, gets ready out there once more, takes the time, gets the time, starts to wind up, throws and it's a wide one across the way for a ball making it one strike on Dykes.
• 1:57:54
  And there's a strike over the line of the plate waste time making it one and two.
• 1:58:02
  One ball and two strikes on Jim.
• 1:58:05
  One up to the count.
• 1:58:09
  And the hitter swings, the next one, the hitter slow bounded on the third base line, Hack comes in, makes a one handed pick up, throws the first and as Cabaret had dumped them all up in front of the runner, Jimmy almost knocked him over and he beats it out.
• 1:58:23
  Four base hit.
• 1:58:29
  Dykes is on first base, two out in the eighth inning and Sewell is at bat.
• 1:58:47
  He takes the first one for a ball and Roof walks back onto the mound again.
• 1:58:58
  And the hitter hits the next one, a drive in the center field but Galan is waiting for it out there, has it, and it's three out, ending the eighth inning with no runs, one hit and one man left on base for the white shot.
• 1:59:13
  And at the end of the eighth inning, the white shots are leading the Cubs by a score of 11 to 2.
• 1:59:28
  The Cubs are about a quarter of an inch out there now, getting ready to pitch the ninth inning, which should be the last half inning, judging the way things are going and the way he's been going, which is in good shape.
• 1:59:43
  The Cubs are about a quarter of an inch out there now, getting ready to pitch the ninth inning, which should be the last half inning, which is in good shape.
• 1:59:58
  For somebody down here, one of the doctors got to get in touch with some of the office department.
• 2:00:13
  Here's Stanley Hackenbatten who starts the ninth inning for the Cubs.
• 2:00:17
  Bratton stands there getting his time. Throws and it's a strike over the heart of the plate about knee high, one strike on Hack.
• 2:00:31
  And there's a ball inside and low, so the count is one ball and one strike on stance.
• 2:00:36
  One and one to count.
• 2:00:41
  And he swings again to foul one into the stand of the left of the plate. One ball and two strikes on Hack.
• 2:00:48
  One and two to count.
• 2:00:57
  Bratton winding up, throws again and Hack takes a high one wide for ball two.
• 2:01:01
  And it makes it two balls and two strikes on stance.
• 2:01:07
  One to his account.
• 2:01:15
  And a hitter hits the next one, a ball in the back over the pitcher's head and goes through in the center field for a base hit.
• 2:01:20
  Single to center field by Hack, putting him on first base to open the ninth inning and bringing Ken O'Day, who has taken over the catching tour,
• 2:01:27
  sends hard net gateway to a pinch runner in the seventh. Ken O'Day at bat.
• 2:01:38
  Bratton ready, throws the first one and O'Day takes a curve ball inside and low for ball one.
• 2:01:43
  One ball called.
• 2:01:51
  Throws the next one and Ken swings it, a boundary down to Hayes to get to throw to second base.
• 2:01:57
  Appling throw to first is too late to get the runner there and Hack is forced at second to play going Hayes to Appling for the first out in the ninth inning, leaving O'Day on first base.
• 2:02:09
  It's one out and Johnny Gill is at bat. Gill up there at the plate.
• 2:02:20
  Gill at bat but you're ready out there again.
• 2:02:25
  And hitter swings to ball this one into the stand above and to the left of the plate and it's one strike.
• 2:02:31
  One strike on Gill.
• 2:02:36
  Ready out there once more, throws and Johnny falls this one back onto the net back of the plate.
• 2:02:47
  One strike to the count but a pitcher waiting out there again.
• 2:02:51
  Johnny swings around to get the sign, throws and it's a ball that gets away from Sewell, bonds off to the right but not far enough to let the runner advance and so it's one and two still strikes.
• 2:03:09
  Johnny Gill on first base with one out of the ninth inning for the Cubs, White Sox leading 11-2.
• 2:03:17
  Finally has each side again, takes another look at first and throws and a hitter hits the ball hard into right field for a base hit.
• 2:03:23
  O'Day makes the turn at second, keeps right on for third, Hoss gets the ball and throws it in to second base.
• 2:03:29
  Single to right field by Gill, here's second hit of the game, moving O'Day to third and bringing Bill Jurgis to bat.
• 2:03:39
  Jurgis up there at the plate.
• 2:03:50
  Jurgis the line foul into the box, he's down just beyond the duck-duck out back of first base.
• 2:03:57
  Apparently everybody got out of the way of it before that ball went in there like a bullet and it's one strike.
• 2:04:07
  And a hitter hits the next one to drive in the center field for a good clean base hit, one run is in and Gill keeps right on and pulls up at third base.
• 2:04:17
  Single to center field by Jurgis and currently Charlie Grimm is going to bat now in place of Charlie Rue.
• 2:04:23
  Jurgis single to center, scores O'Day, third run of the game making it 11 to 3.
• 2:04:32
  And Grimm is giving a hand to the fans as he walks out of the duck-out.
• 2:04:37
  Some fans who are letting their rabidness, giving a little bit of the better of their sporting spirit are uttering a few boos and there's no need for such a thing.
• 2:04:52
  The runner's up there batting now in place of Charlie Rue.
• 2:04:57
  The runner's on first and third and he hits the first one and he's bound it back at Stratton who gets it, throws hard to second base and the throw to first base.
• 2:05:04
  It's a double play and the game is over.
• 2:05:06
  Benora comes running in throwing the ball into the air and tearing for the bench and it's a double play. The play going from Stratton to Appling to Benora for the second and third outs ending the ninth inning in the starts when 11 to 2.
• 2:05:23
  In the ninth, comes at one run, three hits, one man left on base.
• 2:05:27
  And the total for the ball game, White Sox had 11 runs, nine hits, no errors.
• 2:05:40
  Where's, let's see, one, two, three, nine men left on the bases.
• 2:05:46
  The Cubs had three runs, let's see there, two, three, four, five, six, seven, ten hits and four errors with six men left on the bases.
• 2:06:03
  The time of the game an hour and 58 minutes.
• 2:06:06
  The winning pitcher was Stratton and the losing pitcher was Warnocky.
• 2:06:12
  The totals again giving the White Sox two games to nothing lead in the 30 series.
• 2:06:18
  White Sox had 11 runs, nine hits, no errors with nine men left on the bases.
• 2:06:23
  The Cubs had three runs, ten hits, four errors and six men left on the bases.
• 2:06:28
  Time of the game one hour and 58 minutes.
• 2:06:30
  The winning pitcher was Stratton and the losing pitcher was Warnocky.
• 2:06:36
  Tomorrow the same two teams play here at Comiskey Park also on Sunday, third and fourth games of the city series.
• 2:06:45
  We won't be on the air with it tomorrow, will we George?
• 2:06:48
  Because it seems that we've got a little football to do out to that good old Northwestern.
• 2:06:53
  You'll be comforting my old pal Dick Hanley and in the next few days I'll be bearing down on one of our other stations.
• 2:07:01
  So I mean we'll have a lot of fun out there, but that includes the broadcast.
• 2:07:05
  The Mornow is a little bit late today, but he got his whistle in just in time to get on the air.
• 2:07:10
  So the final score today, 11 to 3.
• 2:07:14
  That means that the White Sox have won two games in a row and tomorrow they're going to try to make it three.
• 2:07:19
  Well the Cubs have really got to come back tomorrow and do something.
• 2:07:21
  Fourth game on Sunday, we will be with you then, won't we?
• 2:07:24
  Okay, games at two o'clock tomorrow on Sunday, but that's all for now.
• 2:07:28
  So Hal Cotton is speaking for George, old Uncle George and his Pike here.
• 2:07:32
  Trying to bid you good afternoon from Comiskey Park and return to the studio.
• 2:07:36
  Bye now.
• 2:07:49
  WCFL in Chicago.
• 2:07:51
  No, you save money, Bob.
• 2:08:03
  Hal Cotton presents, great and everyone to meet the studio's present, Hal Cotton.
• 2:08:08
  When you eat a bowl of Kellogg's cornflakes, millions of other people are also enjoying them.
• 2:08:14
  The Kellogg's company of Battle Creek, Michigan, buy only the best of ingredients.
• 2:08:20
  The products are manufactured in the spicken span plant and they're packed in the big,
• 2:08:24
  white, red and green packages with the patented inner white type wrapper, made fresh and kept fresh.
• 2:08:31
  Kellogg's cornflakes have that Kellogg's flavor, which has been famous since 1906,
• 2:08:36
  the year that the original cornflakes were introduced.
• 2:08:39
  They're toasted to a crispness at last.
• 2:08:42
  Try Kellogg's cornflakes for breakfast tomorrow.
• 2:08:44
  They are especially good with some preserved fruit or honey,
• 2:08:48
  and they're a great time for that after school lunch for the children.
• 2:08:51
  But when you go to your grocers, always be sure, never say cornflakes, say Kellogg's.
• 2:08:58
  And now, here's Hal Cotton.
• 2:09:00
  Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
• 2:09:02
  Tonight's the night the American Leaguers say, I told you so.
• 2:09:06
  All you American League fans get busy and chortle because, well,
• 2:09:12
  because it was an American League day all the way down the line.
• 2:09:16
  From there, Yankees evened up the series with the Giants,
• 2:09:19
  and if there was any doubt about their evening it up, well, the score was 18 to 4.
• 2:09:24
  Of course, the last six of those eight runs were made in the ninth inning, but they were made.
• 2:09:29
  The Yankees had 18 runs, 17 hits, and no errors for the Giants,
• 2:09:33
  four runs, five hits, and one error.
• 2:09:36
  The batteries for the Yankees, Gomez and Dickey, for the Giants, Schumacher, Smith,
• 2:09:43
  Hoffman, Gabler, Gumbert, and Mancuso.
• 2:09:49
  Here in Chicago, the White Sox made it to two straight over the Cubs,
• 2:09:53
  winning also very decisively 11 to 3.
• 2:09:56
  The White Sox had 11 runs, nine hits, no errors.
• 2:10:00
  The Cubs three runs, ten hits, and four errors.
• 2:10:04
  The batteries for the White Sox, Stratton and Sewell,
• 2:10:08
  Warnocky, Henshaw, Bryant, Roof, and Hartnett, O'Day.
• 2:10:16
  I don't know just what to say about those things, and yet I guess I do.
• 2:10:22
  That Yankee game down there in New York, when the Yankee power really started to turn down the heat,
• 2:10:27
  more or less Lee Ferraro should say emphasized the fact that the Giants are really,
• 2:10:34
  in this series, won Carl Hopper.
• 2:10:37
  It's pretty hard to say at any time that a ball club is no stronger than any one man,
• 2:10:44
  but if Schumacher can't do it and Smith couldn't stop them,
• 2:10:48
  then I don't know what they can expect in a case like this.
• 2:10:54
  For the simple reason that now Hopper is almost certain they've got to come back tomorrow.
• 2:10:58
  There's a good chance he won't. That's true.
• 2:11:00
  There's a good chance somebody else needs a pretty good,
• 2:11:03
  for Fitzsimmons pitches tomorrow, great chat for him.
• 2:11:07
  If he's Yankees turned down the heat today, he might very easily lose.
• 2:11:11
  Then Hubbell comes back with a full three-day rest, and they can't very well use him again in the series.
• 2:11:17
  If Hubbell tomorrow, with two full days of rest, and here sometimes in a very down situation like this,
• 2:11:23
  he can do that, and although you'll find Hubbell and others even doing it here this season,
• 2:11:28
  then if Fitzsimmons might come back and do it, somebody else, maybe Schumacher,
• 2:11:34
  and between the two of them win one game, then Hubbell gets another crack at them after two more days' rest,
• 2:11:40
  and they might be back in there. You can't ever tell.
• 2:11:43
  So it looks as though it's on Hubbell's shoulders and practically no one else.
• 2:11:49
  Here in Chicago, the collapse of the Cubs' defense has been probably even more startling
• 2:11:57
  than the collapse of the Cubs' much-heralded pitching staff.
• 2:12:01
  So the pitching staff certainly hasn't held up, and yet in yesterday's game in which Lee lost,
• 2:12:06
  the defense collapsed to start him on his way, and in today, the very first inning, the defense collapsed,
• 2:12:13
  and then the big eight-run, sixth inning, the defense was also very poor.
• 2:12:18
  The Cubs coming up with four errors today, two in that inning, to make it just too bad.
• 2:12:24
  And in the first inning it did, but when those white-stock hitters started to take cracks at Warnocky
• 2:12:32
  in the sixth inning, there was no one known as two of the most dangerous hitting teams in the American League
• 2:12:40
  find this National League pitching not so very difficult after all, although, as I said,
• 2:12:45
  it is to be seen in the composite box score of the two-game Yankee composite box score first.
• 2:12:52
  You find the Yankees of the team hitting.329 in two games, while the Giants of the team are hitting only.231.
• 2:13:00
  The strange part of it is, these fellows and health fellows who have made hits in eighths,
• 2:13:05
  three hits in eighths, hitting.364, hit to.9444.
• 2:13:09
  Ott with two hits and six trips is.333.
• 2:13:12
  Mancuso with two hits and five trips is.400.
• 2:13:16
  And Jackson is the only regular under.300, and he has one hit in eighths times at bat with 125.
• 2:13:25
  I mean by that the only regular who has made a hit.
• 2:13:28
  Hubbell himself has a batting average of 500 with his two hits and four times at bat.
• 2:13:33
  And Davidson, there's a pinch hitter today, made a hit to have a batting average of 1,000.
• 2:13:37
  But Moore has been held hitless in ten times at bat, Lieber in four, Ripple in two, and Whitehead in seven.
• 2:13:45
  Now compare that to the fact that the Yankees find only one man who has engaged in either of these two games
• 2:13:54
  that hasn't made at least one hit.
• 2:13:56
  And that is Charlie Ruffing, the pitcher who pitched the opening game of the series and was shut out in three times at bat.
• 2:14:02
  In fact, he struck out two of those three times.
• 2:14:05
  So everybody in the lineup, including Gomez, the pitcher today, has had something to do in the batting line.
• 2:14:14
  Now when you have the hitting running all the way up and down the line that way, it's pretty tough.
• 2:14:18
  The most sensational showing at bat so far in the World Series is Jake Powell,
• 2:14:24
  a fellow who really wasn't figured so seriously at the start.
• 2:14:27
  As a matter of fact, some people weren't sure that he would be regularly in there, although it was practically certain.
• 2:14:33
  But Powell, a boy who came from Washington in the deal for Ben Chapman this year, is hitting 714, just a mere 714.
• 2:14:41
  He's made five hits in seven times at bat and has gained a couple of walks.
• 2:14:46
  Other sensational averages, Ruff has three hits in seven times at bat, and Frank and Joe have four in nine times at bat.
• 2:14:55
  Other fellows are all below 300, and that leads me to say another thing.
• 2:15:01
  Two of the biggest guns of the Yankee attack have been held below 300, and they're not going to stay there, at least one of them.
• 2:15:08
  So in other words, they've won this one game to even it up without the really serious services of Lou Gehrig,
• 2:15:16
  who has made two hits in eight times at bat, and Dickie, who has made two in nine times at bat,
• 2:15:21
  that they're almost bound to get before the series is over.
• 2:15:24
  The big shot today, of course, was Lazeri, whose lone hit of the series, giving him an average of 143,
• 2:15:31
  happened to be a home run where the base is full, which is a lot of home runs in any league.
• 2:15:37
  Gomez came up with a base hit, and so he's very happy tonight.
• 2:15:41
  The White Sox come series, we find not quite a striking situation, but still bad enough.
• 2:15:48
  The White Sox are hitting 231 as a team, with Appling topping the list,
• 2:15:53
  rather tied with Rosenthal at the top of the list, with four hits in eight times at bat.
• 2:15:58
  Each of them has two base hits.
• 2:16:01
  The Sox is third with two hits and six times at bat, with 333 average, and all the rest of them under 300.
• 2:16:07
  Stratton, the pitcher, made a hit today to have an average of 250.
• 2:16:12
  Benura has one hit and six trips with 167.
• 2:16:15
  Radcliffe, one hit and seven trips with 143.
• 2:16:18
  And Hayes and Sewell each have one hit and eight times at bat with 125.
• 2:16:22
  So their hitting hasn't been overpowering, but the club pitching has been so bad,
• 2:16:27
  and their defense so bad, their five errors in two games and 12 passes in two games,
• 2:16:33
  making it, or giving the Sox an opportunity which they haven't overlooked.
• 2:16:37
  The club batting average is only 209 as a team, which is not very good.
• 2:16:43
  The Giants are hitting 231 as a team, which ties the present White Sox.
• 2:16:49
  The leader of the club is Woody English, who has made one hit in his only appearance for a perfect average.
• 2:16:54
  But of those who have been in the game, in both games,
• 2:16:58
  Gill, making four hits and eight times at bat, has an average of 500.
• 2:17:02
  Hack, with two hits and six trips, has 333.
• 2:17:06
  Hartnett, with two hits and seven trips, 286.
• 2:17:09
  Cavaretta, with two hits and eight trips, 250.
• 2:17:11
  And then on down, Demery has only one hit and seven tries.
• 2:17:15
  Galan and Jurgis, one and eight.
• 2:17:17
  And the rest of them haven't hit.
• 2:17:18
  So you find the same weakness in the club team that the Giants are showing,
• 2:17:23
  the same strength in the Sox team the Giants are showing,
• 2:17:26
  and that is that everybody putting here has had something to do.
• 2:17:29
  Only two of the White Sox players haven't made at least one hit.
• 2:17:33
  Hoss, who has been up six times, and Kennedy the pitcher, who was up four times yesterday.
• 2:17:38
  Whereas of the clubs, Herman, Warnocky, Lillard, O'Day, Grimm, Lee, and Carlton,
• 2:17:45
  who have been at bat anywhere from one to five times, haven't made a base hit.
• 2:17:50
  Before we go any farther, I do want to remind you of one thing,
• 2:17:54
  and that is remember what we said last night.
• 2:17:56
  The baseball player who won the Kellogg's Most Valuable Player contest
• 2:18:02
  will be announced Monday night, the winner of the player winning the Pontiac Sudan.
• 2:18:07
  And then if possible Monday night, or if they haven't been able to figure through all the letters by that time,
• 2:18:13
  at least within the next two or three days after Monday,
• 2:18:16
  the main prize winners of the fans who wrote in will be announced.
• 2:18:21
  And also every single person who voted in the contest is going to receive by mail
• 2:18:26
  a complete list of all the prize winners.
• 2:18:29
  And if you know how many thousand that involves, it would give you a big kick.
• 2:18:33
  The scoring today started in the very first inning here at Comiskey Park.
• 2:18:37
  Radcliffe, the leadoff man for the Sox, walked and went to second on Rosenthal's single.
• 2:18:42
  Hoss laid down a bunch toward third base, and Warnocky went over there and got it in with plenty of time
• 2:18:47
  to get Radcliffe at third base.
• 2:18:49
  He'd had him by eight feet, but he had one of those things happen like Cavaraddy did yesterday,
• 2:18:54
  and threw the ball clear down to the canvas down the left field line with a result
• 2:18:58
  that both Radcliffe and Rosenthal were able to score, and Hoss reached third.
• 2:19:03
  Warnocky looked like himself in striking out Fenora and making Appling hit a ball toward Herman,
• 2:19:08
  but it was hit a little to Billy's right, rather hard hit, and crammed off Herman's glove for a scratch double,
• 2:19:14
  putting Hoss across the plate.
• 2:19:16
  The Cubs got one of those back in the second inning with one out when Hack Watt went to second on Harknett's scratch hit
• 2:19:21
  and scored on Gill's single.
• 2:19:24
  The big blow-up, however, came in the sixth inning, and after pitching great ball,
• 2:19:29
  allowing only one hit after the first inning and that coming in the fifth,
• 2:19:33
  Warnocky really was tagged and tagged plenty.
• 2:19:36
  Benura opened the inning with a resounding single to center.
• 2:19:39
  Appling single to right, putting Benura on second.
• 2:19:42
  Hayes sacrificed the boys along.
• 2:19:44
  Dykes was purposely tagged, filling the bases.
• 2:19:47
  Sewell single to center, as he so often does in the clinch,
• 2:19:50
  scoring Benura and Appling to third, and then when the throw-in got away from Hack,
• 2:19:56
  Stratton went to second.
• 2:19:58
  This after he'd won, I tell you which much, a hard hit on the halfway,
• 2:20:02
  Sewell got away from Cavarrette, didn't kind of throw to fill at first,
• 2:20:06
  and still gets pushed in.
• 2:20:07
  Another run was getting forced in.
• 2:20:09
  Newt Fitcher came in, and then Appling single to right to end that big run,
• 2:20:13
  one of the eights, went second time on English,
• 2:20:16
  down English, opened with a single, but was forced to surround it by O'Day,
• 2:20:20
  who was in in there, and O'Day went to third on Gill's single and scored on Georgia's hit.
• 2:20:24
  That's all low, and tomorrow they play the third game of the series.
• 2:20:28
  But, of course, do you get something to say?
• 2:20:30
  Now, you know people often say the way to generality and value is to look forward.
• 2:20:34
  We invite you to think about that.
• 2:20:36
  That's just it, that's a part of the feature that makes it easy going outside parking.
• 2:20:41
  Just a zip of your thumb and press door up off the lid.
• 2:20:44
  Inside, Appling, to protect the flavor and freshness of the face.
• 2:20:48
  The watchtights are found only on Tellon products.
• 2:20:51
  Open that, then notice how uniform those delicious toasted, but how perfect each one is,
• 2:20:57
  wonderfully fresh and good they smell.
• 2:21:00
  Things perhaps, but they mean careful manufacturing and hot.
• 2:21:04
  The next time you buy cornflakes, get Tellon.
• 2:21:07
  And the stomach.
• 2:21:09
  Tellon presents Hal Totten with his inside story on baseball each day at this time, except Sunday.
