  On October 8, 1967, the Boston Red Sox faced the St. Louis Cardinals at Bush Stadium for Game 4 of the 1967 World Series.
• 0:16
  The Cardinals led the best of seven series two games to one, and this is the NBC Radio broadcast of Game 4 featuring announcers Pee Wee Reese and Ken Coleman.
• 0:26
  The Cardinals beat the St. Louis Cardinals 3-386 to straightaway left and straightaway right field and 414 to center field here at Bush Memorial Stadium.
• 0:38
  And I guess Pee Wee is what the ballplayers would refer to as an honest ballpark.
• 0:43
  It certainly is. There's nothing cheap about a home run in this ballpark. Of course, Fenway, they have the real short left field.
• 0:49
  If you hit a home run in this park, you deserve it. And the wind is blowing out a little bit today.
• 0:56
  I think the ball to left field, Eddie Bursu, the shortstop, has played here at the Cardinals and also played with Boston,
• 1:02
  said that the ball carries better to left field and left center than does to right field.
• 1:07
  And I was down there watching batting practice, and they were jumping out there pretty good in left field today.
• 1:13
  And now let's go to the starting lineups, which are basically the same. For Boston, Jose Tardible will lead off playing in right field.
• 1:24
  Dalvin Jones will bat second and play third. Carl Yastremski is in left.
• 1:31
  George Scott will be in the fourth position in the batting order at first base.
• 1:36
  Reggie Smith is the center fielder batting fifth at his first World Series home run yesterday.
• 1:43
  Jerry Adair will play second. Batting seventh and playing shortstop is Rego Petrocelli.
• 1:52
  The catcher, the veteran, Elston Howard. And on the mound, Jose Santiago.
• 2:00
  Santiago started the series opener in Boston, losing 2-1 to Gibson. He worked seven innings to allow two runs, 10 hits,
• 2:08
  walked three and struck out five, and accounted for the only Boston run of the game with a third inning home run on an 0-2 count.
• 2:17
  He had one home run during the regular season. This is his second year with Boston.
• 2:24
  He has a record over those two years of 24 and 17. Jose is 6'2", 190 pounds, 27 years old from Puerto Rico.
• 2:38
  Now for St. Louis. Lou Brock leads off playing in left field, and he has been one of the key men in this series so far.
• 2:50
  Mike Flood is in center field batting second. Roger Maris in right field will bat third.
• 2:57
  Orlando Cepeda, who came up with a big hit here yesterday, his first hit in the World Series, will be at first base.
• 3:06
  Tim McAver is working in back of the play. Mike Shannon will be at third.
• 3:13
  Julian Javier is at second. Dale Maxville at shortstop, and Bob Gibson is on the mound.
• 3:27
  Right now, down below, for this tremendous crowd, which will be in the vicinity of 54,000 feet, the Red Sox starting lineup is being introduced.
• 3:40
  We told you about Santiago, so we move over now to Bob Gibson.
• 3:45
  He is 3-1 in World Series competition, and only one St. Louis Cardinal pitcher has ever won four series games.
• 3:54
  Harry Brichin. Brichin was 0-1 in 1943, 1-0 in 1944, and 3-1 against Boston in 1946.
• 4:06
  Gibson has pitched three consecutive complete game victories in the series after losing his first series game in 1964 to the Yankees here in St. Louis, working eight innings.
• 4:19
  And I think it's significant to point out his strikeout total in series competition. He has fanned 41 batters in his 36 series innings, with his strikeout totals per game at 9, 13, 9, and 10.
• 4:36
  His 31 strikeouts in the 1964 series set a record.
• 4:42
  So with more pregame color in just a moment.
• 4:48
  At first base, from the American League, Ed Rungy.
• 4:53
  At second base, from the National League, Paul Frier.
• 4:57
  At third base, John Stevens of the American League.
• 5:02
  Down the right field line, Frank Umont of the American League, and down the left field line, Al Barlich of the National League.
• 5:12
  The umpires have deployed to their positions. The conference is at home plate over.
• 5:19
  And of course, the managers are very familiar with the ground rules, which are really relatively simple here.
• 5:27
  Gibson has completed his warm-up throw, has gone back into the St. Louis dugout, and right now Santiago is on his way in from left field, where he has been warming up with Red Sox catcher, Russ Gibson.
• 5:41
  A wonderful crowd on hand here today for the fourth game.
• 5:46
  Jose Tadebo, who will lead off for Boston, has just come out of the dugout into the on-deck circle.
• 5:54
  Although the St. Louis Cardinals have not yet taken the field, as Frankie Frisch, the Fordham Flash and one of the great ones for the St. Louis Cardinals years ago,
• 6:07
  a member of baseball's Hall of Fame has just now, or is in the process right now, of throwing out the first ball for today's game.
• 6:19
  And on the mound, taking his warm-up throws with his catcher, Tim McArthur, Orlando Cepetas at first base, Oleon Hobby Air at second,
• 6:28
  Dalmach, Phyllis shortstop, and Mike Shannon at third. In left field is Lou Brock. In center, Kirk Flood. The right fielder is Roger Maris.
• 6:38
  McCarver throws the ball down to second. The team keepers pepper it around. Third baseman, Shannon, turns it over to Gibson, and the big, strong right-hander is ready to go to work.
• 6:51
  And we're set for the first pitch of game four in the 1967 series. Here is Pee Wee Reeves.
• 6:58
  Okay, Ken, thank you very much. Big Bob Gibson on the mound for the St. Louis Cardinals. They're trying to make it three to one and play with the Cardinals game-wise here today.
• 7:07
  Carderball takes the first pitch of ball one. That pitch is in there for call strike one.
• 7:12
  Bob Gibson has a real good fastball, good curveball. He can overpower you, as everyone knows in baseball.
• 7:21
  Here is the pitch. Carderball ties in the ball into left field. Line drives out on the third base line.
• 7:32
  Gibson, as Ken told you, has won three games in the series for him.
• 7:43
  There's only one other fellow that's done that. That's Harry Bethe. Carderball hits a line ball shot down to Sepetive, picks it up and puts it over to Bob Gibson coming first.
• 7:54
  That ball was hit hard to Peta down on one knee. He pummels the ball, picks it up, throws it over to Bob Gibson and it's won away.
• 8:05
  And that brings up Dawson Jones.
• 8:12
  Gibson doesn't take too much time. He's looking down to Tim McCarver.
• 8:18
  Here's the pitch. A curveball, a little high on outside, ball one.
• 8:23
  Here we have Dawson who had three hits here yesterday and he says he was just trying to hit that ball back up the middle until he gets a better feel of these pitchers.
• 8:34
  Gibson's fastball is in there. Call strike one, one ball and one strike.
• 8:39
  Well, Ken, I haven't seen Dawson Jones too much, but what I've seen of him, I like this young fellow with that fastball in his hand.
• 8:46
  Very smooth.
• 8:47
  Bob Gibson as the ball hit hard down the right field line is bowed way back up in the stands.
• 8:57
  Jones looks like he's not swinging too hard.
• 9:02
  He just tries to hit the ball, worse pitch. He'll hit it to left field, back through the middle. If it's inside, he'll pull it.
• 9:08
  Bob Gibson shakes his head. He's ready. Here is the pitch.
• 9:12
  Ball jamming with Gibson up with the ball. Slips the ball over the tabata. It's two up and two down here.
• 9:18
  At the first stadium, bad luck.
• 9:22
  Gibson, who is a very good fielder out there on the mound, it's hard to get a ball by.
• 9:33
  If you want to have fun on him, it has better be perfect. Now this brings up the great left fielder for Carl Yosemstki.
• 9:45
  He holds his bat high. Gibson first picks up a curveball.
• 9:51
  Inside for ball one. Gibson completely shackles Yosemstki in the first gear.
• 10:01
  He's got a back in the second game. He's got two home runs. They study magic.
• 10:05
  Let's see what he does today at curveball.
• 10:08
  Ending up a called strike one. One ball and one strike.
• 10:13
  It's two away.
• 10:16
  We're in the first inning here at first stadium. Ken Coleman and I'm Pee Wee Reese bringing you today's game.
• 10:24
  Another curveball. Face hit out into the right field. Roger Maes over to cut that ball off.
• 10:28
  Down on one knee. The throw into down back for the shortstop. Huffing back in the first base. Yosemstki.
• 10:36
  So that's his first base hit off Bob Gibson.
• 10:41
  And it brings up George Tater Scott, the big first baser.
• 10:49
  George Scott lives down in Rainbow, Mississippi. He's 23 years old.
• 10:56
  Another one of the fine young ball players at the Red Sox.
• 11:01
  They have a back ball now. Dandy in there for called strike one.
• 11:05
  Two away. Call Yosemstki on his first base.
• 11:09
  Bob Gibson, as I told you, does not take much time.
• 11:13
  The curve is giving him time. Gibson's shack looks over Yosemstki.
• 11:18
  Here's the pitch.
• 11:20
  Back ball in there for called strike two. Just got that outside corner.
• 11:24
  Gibson really moves that ball around. He's in and out, up and down.
• 11:29
  Scott was one of the few men who could stall Gibson the other day.
• 11:33
  He was two out of three against Bob as Bob struck out ten at Fenway Park.
• 11:40
  Two strikes.
• 11:42
  On George Scott.
• 11:44
  He's stuck out.
• 11:46
  And that's all for George Scott. That's all for the Red Sox here in the top half of the first inning.
• 11:52
  There's a sore here at first stadium. The Red Sox nothing and the Cardinals coming to bat.
• 11:58
  It's really done a job, and especially against Santiago in game one.
• 12:03
  And I'm speaking of the great left fielder of the Cardinals, Luke Rock, who is 6-4-12 in this World Series.
• 12:10
  Jose could not keep him off the bases in game one, so he's got to face that challenge here today.
• 12:18
  Is that there to control these Cardinals? It's a pretty good idea to keep Rock off of those tracks.
• 12:24
  Santiago into his windup. Here's the pitch. Rock taking all the way. It's low. Ball one.
• 12:32
  Six for twelve. A cool five hundred. That ain't bad.
• 12:38
  Santiago on his warmup. Here's the pitch. Rock looks like he won the first one.
• 12:42
  It's in there for called strike one. When the bottom half of the first inning, here at First City, no sore in this ball game.
• 12:48
  The Red Sox have one hit, and that was by Carl Giuseppe, coaching at first base for the Cardinals.
• 12:55
  Dick Siffler at third base. Joe Schultz. Rock holds that backtrick up in the air.
• 13:01
  Santiago's pitch. Back ball is tapped down to third. Dalton Jones is the fair ball. The long throw. They didn't get it.
• 13:22
  What it looked like a routine play going down to Dalton Jones, and by the last moment, that ball bounced a little bit,
• 13:29
  and it just took that little bit more for Jones to get that ball to first base to George Scott, and Luke Brock beat it out.
• 13:37
  So now that brings up her clirk. Luke Brock on it first. You'd better watch it.
• 13:43
  Santiago. The pitch. And Brock makes a bluff, and Elton Howard out in front of that home plate, ready to make the throw.
• 13:54
  Santiago had Brock steal two times on him in the first game of the World Series, and Brock said he found his flaw in Santiago's delivery,
• 14:04
  but Scott said, the first baseman, that he just took off like nobody he'd ever seen.
• 14:11
  Found the flaw, huh? Well, he has terrific speed.
• 14:15
  Santiago just threw over there, and I imagine he'll walk him rather close, because the fans are hollering, go, go, go, and don't be surprised if he doesn't.
• 14:23
  He didn't on that pitch right down in there for call strike one.
• 14:26
  I imagine Flirt taking the first two, so he's giving Brock the chance to run if he wants to.
• 14:33
  Flirt checking with his third base coach, Joe Shook.
• 14:40
  It's Brock, an exciting ball player. He loves the run. He stole 52 bases during the regular season.
• 14:49
  Santiago watching closer. Here comes the pitch. It's a fast ball. It's a little low.
• 14:55
  Gets away from Elton Howard, and Elton looks like he's a little anxious to grab that ball, thinking that Brock may go.
• 15:04
  And Howard knows he has to grab that ball and hurry and get rid of it.
• 15:09
  We're in the bottom half of the first inning. No score.
• 15:14
  The Red Sox fail to score in the top half of it. The Cardinals are at bat here now with the runner on his first base.
• 15:22
  They throw the first base. Back easily, Lou Brock. Two balls, one strike on Kirk Flirt.
• 15:31
  Waiting that bat around. Let's watch.
• 15:34
  Santiago looks over to here to pick. The base hit out of the left field. The Red Sox get the ball, and Flirt will not try to go to third, as the Red Sox get that ball back in a hurry.
• 15:46
  But he does move down to second. Brock does, and Kirk Flirt is on it first.
• 15:51
  So, Santiago, who got into a lot of trouble up at Fenway Park in the first game, is getting himself in a jam here again.
• 16:02
  I should say, as the first two Cardinals are on, Brock with the infield hit and Flirt with a ringing line singled into left field.
• 16:11
  And it brings to the plate Roger Maris, who drove in the two runs for the Cardinals in that first game to one victory.
• 16:22
  Roger Maris, who said that this is the happiest he's ever been playing with this Cardinals.
• 16:28
  Flickering into pro ball. The first 50 taking all the way of fur ball in there by Santiago.
• 16:33
  Strike one. Brock down at second. Flirt at first.
• 16:37
  I don't believe you could find two faster men in baseball that are out there right now.
• 16:43
  Santiago checks Brock back at second. Looks again. Here's the pitch.
• 16:48
  Here's the situation out in the left field. Here comes Brock in the store. Your first two over to cut the ball off.
• 16:58
  And Maris is in the second with a double.
• 17:18
  And quickly the Cardinals have scored two runs here in the bottom half of the first inning.
• 17:29
  And Brock Flirt, score on a two base hit by Roger Maris out into left field.
• 17:41
  And he's beginning to drizzle just a little bit. Here at first stadium in San Luis. Orlando Cepeda is the hitter.
• 17:50
  He's got a base that he's last time up yesterday. Santiago looks back at Maris.
• 17:54
  Cepeda hits a little laser looper out into right field.
• 17:57
  Cardinal comes running. He comes up with a smash. He's hanging up. Here comes the throw. Can they get it? No.
• 18:13
  Cepeda with no one out, the runner on his second base trying to get Roger Maris over to serve hits the ball on the ground.
• 18:23
  After the right side hits a fly ball, Cardinal had to run a long waiting.
• 18:28
  He comes up with Roger Maris surprised a few people. He's tagged up and just barely made it.
• 18:36
  Speaking of Roger Maris, Teeway, with a two runs batted in just now, he has a total of five runs batted in in the World Series.
• 18:45
  The Cardinals have nine runs. He's driven in five of them.
• 18:48
  In the car, it takes the first hit to curve ball inside. The in field is called in.
• 18:54
  We're only in the first inning here at first stadium. The Cardinals have already scored two runs.
• 18:58
  They haven't run around a third base. It's one away.
• 19:01
  And the big setter, Tim McHarver, is up there.
• 19:06
  Gary Bell wanting up for the wrist shot down in the bullpen.
• 19:10
  San Diego's pitch, bat ball, low and outside, ball two. The on deck hitter, Mike Shannon, who hit a home run yesterday.
• 19:21
  McHarver backs out of there, looks down at his post, Joe Shultz, at third base.
• 19:31
  Maris on its third. McHarver crouched over that play. Here comes the pitch.
• 19:38
  Bathe hit out into right field. Roger Merge stepping on home plate for their third run.
• 19:45
  McHarver making the cut at third base and back in there.
• 19:48
  And that is the fourth hit for the Cardinals here in the bottom half of the first inning.
• 19:57
  Three runs on four hits.
• 20:06
  Now let's see what happens.
• 20:09
  Maris got a base hit.
• 20:12
  To start this bottom half of the first inning off, Shultz then got a base hit.
• 20:19
  Maris holding on a second. Maris got a double out into left field, scoring both, Maris and Shultz.
• 20:27
  The first hit to Mike Shannon is a curve ball, low and outside.
• 20:31
  Sate hit a fly ball in the right field. Maris tagging up going to third.
• 20:36
  Then McHarver gets a single in the right, scoring Merge.
• 20:39
  And that brings up Mike Shannon, one ball and no strikes on him. It's still one away.
• 20:49
  The pitch for Shannon's front runner in this, strike one.
• 20:56
  And as serious, Shannon has four hits.
• 21:03
  One up for home run yesterday.
• 21:09
  San Diego looking down at his catcher, Elton Hire, waiting for the sign.
• 21:15
  Here is the pitch. Curve ball, front runner, mess, folded a little bit, one ball and two strikes.
• 21:21
  Gary Bell still warming up at the bullpen for the Red Sox.
• 21:27
  Again, those three runs for Gibson's pitching is going to be a little tough.
• 21:33
  Yes indeed, it's going to have to be a catch-up type of ball game from the Boston point of view.
• 21:41
  Shannon, very slowly bat of a curve ball, the shortstop, Petrocelli in foul territory comes up with it.
• 21:48
  A little lazy Luper out over third and holding on at first base, 10 McHarver.
• 21:54
  And you just mentioned a good point there, Ken.
• 21:57
  The Red Sox had to play a catch-up ball yesterday.
• 22:00
  That's a tough game to play. It looks to me like they're going to have to play it again today.
• 22:05
  Well, during the season when they had a 10-game winning streak, they had a similar situation to what the Cards have here today.
• 22:12
  They kept jumping out into quick lead.
• 22:16
  Now the Cardinals have that advantage in this one.
• 22:19
  Javier is the hitter.
• 22:21
  San Diego's first pitcher and the ground ball after the shortstop.
• 22:24
  He's got the ball and the lead is saved.
• 22:35
  That ball was hit hard into the hole.
• 22:40
  Petrocelli had to go over about seven-six.
• 22:45
  He got through the ball, had to cross over with his glove, knocked the ball down,
• 22:52
  but McHarver needs to throw the second base, so Javier gets the base hit.
• 22:56
  And that's the fifth hit.
• 23:01
  In this ball game, Runnison first and second.
• 23:04
  Dow Max will hit a curve ball low and outside, ball one.
• 23:08
  Javier, the only player to have five hits.
• 23:27
  Not the only player to have five hits, because Luke Brock has six hits.
• 23:32
  Has seven now. That's starting in the base game.
• 23:36
  Dow Max ball.
• 23:39
  Makes that 50-50 back ball, too.
• 23:42
  San Diego may be a little careful.
• 23:46
  Little shortstop here.
• 23:48
  Bob Gibson, the next hitter, the nice play-sitter, but he's not a bad hitter himself.
• 23:52
  Runners on first and second.
• 23:54
  San Diego.
• 23:56
  Look at it hard. There's the ball.
• 23:58
  It's a base hit out in the left field.
• 24:00
  Yosunski may make it cold.
• 24:01
  Here comes Petro. Elton Howard out in front.
• 24:04
  The base control, the carbidire.
• 24:07
  That's the first hit.
• 24:28
  When I wonder about Javier, Javier is the only cardinal
• 24:34
  to hit in every game, because Lombard
• 24:38
  only gave that one hit in that second game.
• 24:42
  And Javier had it.
• 24:46
  That cardinal
• 24:49
  has really come on strong here in this bottom half of the first inning.
• 24:54
  With a count of two balls and no strikes.
• 24:58
  On Dow Max ball.
• 25:01
  He's the last one out in the left field in Yosunski
• 25:05
  that we've talked so much about.
• 25:08
  He charges those ground balls in the great arm that he has.
• 25:11
  I thought he may have a good shot at McHarver coming in the home.
• 25:15
  But McHarver beats the throw.
• 25:18
  And Sal Magley, the Red Stocks pitching coach, has gone to the mound,
• 25:22
  and they are going to make a change now.
• 25:25
  As right-hander Gary Bell, who was the starting pitcher here yesterday,
• 25:31
  will come on to do the pitching for Boston.
• 25:35
  In yesterday's game, Gary worked two innings, and he allowed three runs and five hits.
• 25:41
  One of them a home run. He struck out one.
• 25:45
  And Jose Santiago in this first inning has pitched to eight men.
• 25:50
  Six of them have had base hits. Four of them have scores.
• 25:56
  So he worked after working just two-thirds of an inning, he believed,
• 26:00
  allowing six hits and four runs, no walks and no strikeouts.
• 26:05
  Bell has just finished a long walk-in from the bullpen
• 26:10
  and is talking now with Sal Magley and with Elston Howard.
• 26:16
  On the base hit, Maxville went down to second on the throw.
• 26:22
  So the Cardinals have runners at second and third, and nobody out, or two out rather,
• 26:28
  here in this first inning, as Bell now is starting his warm-up throws.
• 26:33
  Coleman with Pee Wee Reef at Bush Memorial Stadium in St. Louis
• 26:38
  with two men out in the last half of the first inning.
• 26:42
  And on the base hit, Gary Bell who has given a pitch to Bob Gibson
• 26:47
  with runners at second and third, and once again, here is Pee Wee Reef.
• 26:52
  Okay, Ken, at Bob Gibson, as we've said so many times, it's not a bad-hitting pitcher.
• 27:01
  Gary Bell looking down at Elston Howard and Elston Howard shaking that fist
• 27:07
  by saying, come on, we're still here.
• 27:10
  The first pitch, back ball low and inside.
• 27:15
  Bell started the game yesterday.
• 27:18
  He pitched two innings, he was a losing pitcher.
• 27:21
  He gave up three runs on five hits, struck out one, and did not walk anyone.
• 27:31
  They count right now and Gibson, one ball, no strikes.
• 27:34
  Bell taking a little time, Elston Howard.
• 27:36
  They can't get together on the side.
• 27:39
  They're trying to find up the pitch, a back ball in there for call strike one.
• 27:44
  In the final half of the first inning, the Red Sox fail to score.
• 27:48
  The Cardinals have four runs.
• 27:51
  They're still not out of the inning, two away.
• 27:55
  Runners on first and second.
• 27:57
  Javier on his third, Max Malone on his second.
• 28:00
  Here's the pitch.
• 28:02
  Popped up.
• 28:03
  Dexter Seller, the Sharks, going back.
• 28:05
  The Yankees call for it, the Mississippi calls for it, and Texas on out number three.
• 28:10
  So here's first day in the bottom half of the first inning.
• 28:13
  The Cardinals score, the Red Sox nothing.
• 28:17
  A cloudy, cool afternoon with a temperature now about 55 degrees.
• 28:22
  Here's T-Wing.
• 28:23
  Popped Gibson's first pitch to Reggie Smith, low and outside, ball one.
• 28:30
  Smith wants to take a look at the ball.
• 28:33
  Dexter Seller, the call to the doubt.
• 28:38
  Here's Jiminyuas.
• 28:40
  One ball, no strikes on Reggie Smith, leading things off for the Red Sox in the top half of the second inning.
• 28:46
  That pitch is outside, ball two.
• 28:49
  Gibson, when he releases that ball, he puts everything in.
• 28:57
  Paul's over-taught first base a little bit.
• 28:59
  Here comes the Winder, the pitch to Smith.
• 29:02
  The ball hit hard, but stays right the whole time.
• 29:05
  Just barely fouled in it by Sealy.
• 29:14
  Here's DeSeller.
• 29:18
  That's it, throwing around the left, back through the middle, you get it inside.
• 29:23
  You can hit it a long way.
• 29:26
  Here's the pitch to Gibson.
• 29:28
  He's out to Javier at second base, up with the ball, puts the ball over the capeta.
• 29:32
  It's all for Reggie Smith.
• 29:34
  Gibson will be tough today.
• 29:39
  Bob Gibson.
• 29:44
  A little fella, he's not a real big fella.
• 29:46
  He's six feet, one and a half inches tall, but he's well put together, 195 pounds.
• 29:55
  Basketball player, Gary A. there, first pitch time.
• 29:59
  Fouled off the right, back up in the stands, track one.
• 30:04
  She-We, there's a note on the scoreboard out here indicating that New Brock,
• 30:08
  four hits in the opening game, made him the sixth cardinal to do it.
• 30:12
  Others, Joe Medwick, Rip Collin, Dino Slaughter, Whitey Karowski, and Joe Gargiola.
• 30:19
  That is Joe Gargiola, Gibson.
• 30:24
  Glad to see you there.
• 30:26
  Well, you know, he did it in the World Series in Boston, and he said it was an amazing thing
• 30:30
  because it happened to be a day when Ted Williams did a couple of things pretty well,
• 30:35
  and he said he got very little publicity out of it, you know, as a result.
• 30:43
  Well, I knew Joe had done that, as glad he did.
• 30:45
  Gary A. there.
• 30:47
  Wings.
• 30:50
  No contact, one ball and two strikes on Jerry.
• 30:53
  Went to top half the second inning.
• 30:58
  Bob Gibson, pitch.
• 30:59
  There, there, curve ball.
• 31:01
  Hot looking right there.
• 31:02
  So it's two away.
• 31:07
  That's the second strike out by Bob Gibson.
• 31:12
  That brings up Rico Ketsuraseki.
• 31:19
  Gibson digging his way down from the carver to wind up the pitch.
• 31:23
  Curve ball and a dandy in there for 12-strike one.
• 31:28
  Gibson in Boston started out with the fastball.
• 31:32
  Today he's throwing a lot of curves.
• 31:36
  That ball just missed the outside corner, makes count of one ball and one strike.
• 31:41
  You see a pitcher do that quite often.
• 31:44
  Sometimes you start out throwing a lot of fastballs and throw curve balls a lot of part of the game.
• 31:49
  So breaking pitch outside.
• 31:51
  All two and strike one.
• 31:54
  The next game, start out with curve balls and switch to fastballs.
• 32:01
  This fellow can do it.
• 32:02
  A good fastball, spun on it, foul straight back, two and two.
• 32:11
  The fourth game of the World Series here at Boots Stadium.
• 32:17
  And the Cardinals are out in front by a score of four to nothing.
• 32:20
  The fifth one will be played right here tomorrow.
• 32:25
  Bounce straight back and the count remains two and two.
• 32:29
  It's two away.
• 32:33
  Metzorcelli has good power for little fellas, hits 17 home runs during the Red Bulls season.
• 32:44
  Defensively for the Cardinals, Cepeda at first base, Javier at second,
• 32:49
  Maxwell at short, Shannon at third, Blackfield, Brock, Centerfield, Fletch,
• 32:54
  Wrightfield, Mares, McHarver, Ketching, and the pitcher, Bob Gibson.
• 32:59
  He shakes his guard, didn't want that one.
• 33:01
  He wants this one.
• 33:02
  And up the pitch, curve ball.
• 33:04
  Kind of fought it off, Metzorcelli did.
• 33:06
  Hitted off the right, Cepeda going over near the stand.
• 33:09
  Way back up in there.
• 33:13
  Two and two.
• 33:14
  Metzorcelli had a great deal of trouble with Gibson in the first game in Boston.
• 33:19
  He struck out three times, all swinging, and then finally was lifted for a pinch hitter,
• 33:24
  which is something that doesn't very often happen.
• 33:26
  But he had a lot of trouble with Bob's motion.
• 33:29
  At least today he's getting on that ball a little bit.
• 33:33
  That turned two-pitch to Cepeda.
• 33:36
  Curve ball, pulled in, started Becky swinging one around, and that's all.
• 33:40
  But the Red Sox hit a top half with second and eighth.
• 33:43
  The score, after one and a half and even points to the Cardinals, four of the Red Sox, nothing.
• 33:48
  Come on, that started the game off, Lou Brock.
• 33:50
  Here he is again.
• 33:51
  As Ken told you, nine men batted in that first inning.
• 33:55
  Gary Bell, first good time on outside ball one.
• 34:01
  Cardinals have been serious players.
• 34:03
  They have been in hand.
• 34:04
  They've won seven.
• 34:07
  By the end of those sevenths, they won.
• 34:10
  Went to seven games.
• 34:12
  They didn't lose a one-up.
• 34:17
  The pitch, Brock, it pops up out into left field.
• 34:20
  It's empty underneath it.
• 34:22
  Kathy's good.
• 34:25
  Take it for out number one.
• 34:27
  As we've said so many times during this series, you have to keep that Brock off of those bases.
• 34:34
  Once he gets on, everything starts to happen.
• 34:40
  He accepts the pitchers.
• 34:42
  In the field, Kathy.
• 34:45
  He really moves.
• 34:47
  Kirk Blur is headed with one away.
• 34:49
  Gary Bell, first pitch during.
• 34:51
  He punched one.
• 34:52
  It tries to butt one thousand straight back.
• 34:57
  Blur at 30.
• 34:58
  Dalton Jones back a little bit.
• 35:00
  Third base.
• 35:02
  One strike on him, essentially for the Red Sox in the infield.
• 35:05
  Shot at first base.
• 35:07
  Second base.
• 35:08
  Jerry Adair at shortstop.
• 35:10
  Petro Sellez.
• 35:11
  Third base.
• 35:12
  Dalton Jones.
• 35:14
  One strike on Kirk Blur.
• 35:16
  Gary Bell on the one.
• 35:17
  Appears the pitch.
• 35:18
  It's high and inside.
• 35:20
  One strike.
• 35:23
  Kirk Blur at a real good second place hitter.
• 35:26
  He can really handle that bat.
• 35:29
  Not only can he move the ball around, he hits over 330 during this season.
• 35:34
  The fastball inside ball two.
• 35:38
  The Cardinals have four runs on six hits.
• 35:41
  Red Sox, no runs on one hit.
• 35:47
  The temperature here at Bush Stadium, about 54 degrees.
• 35:53
  It's an overcast day.
• 35:56
  Braddock Schiller.
• 35:57
  Here's the pitch.
• 35:58
  Blur.
• 35:59
  Popped it up.
• 36:00
  George Scott, the first baseman underneath it and takes it for out number two.
• 36:06
  So Gary Bell.
• 36:11
  Finding things a little bit easier than Santiago did who started this game.
• 36:16
  Santiago, pitch two-thirds of an inning, gave up four runs on six hits.
• 36:23
  Roger Mares, who's had a good series, the batter, he's doubled in the first thing,
• 36:30
  driving in two runs.
• 36:31
  There's a fastball with that side of the gas.
• 36:35
  Remember, fans, Ken Coleman and I will be right back here again tomorrow to bring you the
• 36:40
  fifth game of this World Series.
• 36:42
  Hope you can be with us.
• 36:44
  Bell's picked a Mares curveball in there for Saltzite 1.
• 36:49
  Mares now has four for 12.
• 36:52
  Five runs batted in.
• 36:57
  Mares, a big left-handed hitter.
• 37:01
  Gary Bell's pitch to him.
• 37:03
  A lot of pitches high and outside, ball two.
• 37:08
  He's trying to keep the ball away from Mares.
• 37:11
  Get it in, Travis.
• 37:15
  He can pull it out of here, out of any ballpark.
• 37:20
  He keeps moving that back.
• 37:21
  Now he's set.
• 37:22
  Gary Bell's pitch to him.
• 37:23
  Back crawl.
• 37:25
  Danded a little bit.
• 37:26
  Pitch to him for the closest first base.
• 37:28
  Gets a nice hand as he comes up to the ball.
• 37:31
  Two balls, two strikes.
• 37:36
  On Roger Mares.
• 37:44
  Ken, I believe Bell was a little bit better today than he did yesterday.
• 37:47
  Yes, he does.
• 37:48
  And oddly enough, our second pitcher yesterday was Lucy was the best one.
• 37:52
  It seems to be a matter of timing involved here.
• 37:55
  Taking her own pitcher.
• 37:58
  It's her turn there.
• 38:00
  The ground is George Scott who's taking him himself.
• 38:02
  He's throwing tips on the base and that's all for the Cardinals here in the bottom half of the second inning.
• 38:07
  The score here, the Cardinals four and the Red Sox nothing.
• 38:12
  But the Red Sox, Elton Howard the first pitch to him.
• 38:15
  He takes it in there for a call strike one.
• 38:17
  Well, as we mentioned, the Red Sox now have to play catch up and with Gary Bell due next, Joe Poy is on deck.
• 38:26
  Elton Howard pops one up, the fade in fouls head toward down his first base line, takes it for out number one.
• 38:41
  Joe Poy.
• 38:45
  Ten-fifty on the pitcher.
• 38:49
  Gary Bell.
• 38:51
  Gets the first pitch to him. Her ball in there for call strike one.
• 38:59
  Well, that's what happened as Ken and I have said.
• 39:02
  Here's the pitch to Joe Poy.
• 39:04
  Come on and miss strike two.
• 39:06
  When you're playing catch up baseball, even though Gary Bell has looked real short, you've got to use your pinditors.
• 39:13
  Try to get back in this game.
• 39:16
  As the Red Sox fail, four to nothing.
• 39:19
  The 0-2 pitch to Poy.
• 39:22
  And it didn't take long for Gibson to get a bit of four.
• 39:25
  A real good fast ball and a runner and this is it for out number two.
• 39:31
  I don't believe Ken, I've ever seen a pitcher work this fast as Bob Gibson does.
• 39:36
  He really works fast both ways.
• 39:41
  In throwing the ball and in working.
• 39:46
  Jose Tardibor, a little right fielder.
• 39:48
  Here is the pitch.
• 39:50
  Tardibor looking at it like he won the buttock.
• 39:53
  Makes it for strike one.
• 40:01
  Tardibor does not have a hit in the series.
• 40:06
  Her ball outside, call one.
• 40:11
  When the top half is over, it's quick to get him inside Lord.
• 40:16
  Cardinal four, the Red Sox nothing.
• 40:20
  Swing and miss, strike two.
• 40:22
  One ball and two strikes on Tardibor.
• 40:24
  It's two away.
• 40:27
  Bob Gibson, he doesn't give that hitter a chance to think.
• 40:34
  One ball and two strikes.
• 40:35
  Here is the pitch.
• 40:36
  Her ball hit out to Sepada.
• 40:38
  The first face says I'll take it myself.
• 40:41
  And that's all for the Red Sox here in the top half of third inning.
• 40:45
  So after one and a half innings of play, it's still the Cardinal four and the Red Sox nothing after third inning.
• 40:52
  The new pitcher, Jerry Stevenson, first pitch is in there for call strike one.
• 40:57
  Sepada.
• 41:01
  It'll fly out into right field to Tardibor his last time up.
• 41:06
  There's that one third on it.
• 41:09
  There's a big hit out of the left field.
• 41:11
  And after extra bases, you're dirty, takes the ball off the wall.
• 41:15
  Here comes a long pull.
• 41:16
  Sepada in the second base with a stand-up double.
• 41:26
  Well, Ken, a lot of the players on the Cardinal said that little face hit, or not a little face hit,
• 41:31
  that two-face hit, Sepada got his last time up.
• 41:33
  Yes, he may be just what the doctor ordered.
• 41:37
  Elvando had been in a slump through most of September and had a lot of trouble getting base hits in this World Series.
• 41:44
  He'd gone 0 for 10 until he got that double yesterday.
• 41:47
  And now he bangs out his second double off the World Series, getting his second hit.
• 41:52
  He's 1 for 2 today as Tim McCarver now faces Jerry Stevenson.
• 41:59
  Tim McCarver will try to get this ball on the right side of the infield.
• 42:03
  It gets to Sepada over the third.
• 42:05
  And now here's the pitch.
• 42:08
  Her ball, good dribble, foul, hits it back against the street.
• 42:18
  Ken's talking about Sepada at that late season slump with only 1-61.
• 42:28
  Last 19 games, 10 for 62.
• 42:33
  He just quit after he sent Sepada back in again.
• 42:36
  Well, he helped him pinch it.
• 42:38
  He was a great player for the Cardinals all season long.
• 42:41
  He did.
• 42:42
  McCarver takes the back ball just inside.
• 42:46
  One ball and one strike.
• 42:48
  Yes, sir, that thick fellow down at second base, they call him the Bull.
• 42:55
  He certainly did have a great year.
• 43:00
  As we say, he is the leader for the Cardinals.
• 43:04
  Jerry Stevenson's pitch to McCarver.
• 43:06
  He did put it foul down that right field line.
• 43:11
  The count is now one ball and two strikes on McCarver.
• 43:14
  So in the bottom half of third inning, the Red Sox have no runs on one hit.
• 43:19
  Off to Bob Gibson, the Cardinals have four runs and seven hits.
• 43:26
  The Cardinals have four runs came off San Diego in the first inning.
• 43:33
  As he pitched two-thirds of an inning, Jerry Stevenson shakes his head to Elton Hardee's ready.
• 43:42
  McCarver fouls one off the net, no chance by Howard R. Dalton Jones, and a gap remains one ball and two strikes.
• 43:53
  McCarver just about straight away.
• 43:57
  Yudzinski, in fact, he's a little bit more towards the left field line.
• 44:06
  McCarver hits the ball out of the left field, especially with two strikes on it.
• 44:12
  One and two hits to McCarver.
• 44:14
  Boucher back in front of the plate, Elton Hardee cannot come up with it, and there goes the player to third.
• 44:22
  A wild pitch by Jerry Stevenson.
• 44:37
  His Cardinal ball first and move on those base backs.
• 44:44
  Of course, they've had a lot of opportunities today.
• 44:46
  They've had a lot of man on.
• 44:48
  Red Sox have not had a chance.
• 44:52
  The infield has drawn them in a count of two balls and two strikes on McCarver.
• 44:56
  There's no one out.
• 44:58
  Here is the hit to McCarver with the player to third is a high five on that two-center field.
• 45:03
  Regis Chris, who has a good arm, he's going to lead the ball.
• 45:05
  Here comes the throw, and they cannot be able to get McCarver.
• 45:09
  The throw is off to the right.
• 45:10
  Elton Hardee up with the ball.
• 45:12
  He throws the ball to Jones.
• 45:14
  At third, I thought that maybe going over to tag third on the infield play, but McCarver had plenty of time.
• 45:22
  It was going to use rushing.
• 45:31
  They had plenty of time down at third, so that ball was pretty steep.
• 45:36
  Not to Regis, and Mike Shannon is now the hitter.
• 45:40
  It's one away.
• 45:42
  McCarver is now leading five and other.
• 45:49
  One and ohs a count on Mike Shannon.
• 45:55
  Shannon played right field in the 1964 World Series.
• 45:58
  That ball, oh, ball two.
• 46:10
  Two balls, no strikes on Mike Shannon.
• 46:12
  Jerry Stevenson taking a little time.
• 46:14
  Elton Hardee getting his time.
• 46:15
  Everyone up, Stevenson.
• 46:17
  That ball, low and out, try.
• 46:18
  Ball three.
• 46:19
  Shannon checks with Joe Short, the coach at third base.
• 46:26
  And the Cardinals have completely dominated this game so far.
• 46:34
  Bob Gibson has given up one hit, and the Cardinals have scored five runs.
• 46:39
  That's three and ohs a hit.
• 46:41
  Shannon taking all the ways right down in there for called strike one.
• 46:51
  Shannon has four for ten in the series.
• 46:54
  Right down on the end of that bat.
• 46:55
  Elton Hardee giving his time.
• 46:57
  Jerry Stevenson in the windup.
• 46:59
  Here's the pitch.
• 47:01
  That ball off the right back of the stand.
• 47:15
  Short shot at first base.
• 47:16
  Jerry Adair at second.
• 47:17
  That's Joe Selle at shortstop.
• 47:19
  John Jones at third.
• 47:22
  Jerry Stevenson, the third pitcher for the Red Sox.
• 47:27
  San Diego, Gary Barrow, and now Jerry.
• 47:30
  Here's the three and two.
• 47:32
  That's ball right inside, ball four.
• 47:41
  That'll bring up Hoolie Javier.
• 47:48
  That's a face that is last time up to the shortstop.
• 47:51
  That's a teller who had to go in the hole, knocked the ball down, could not throw anyone out.
• 47:57
  Javier has had a face hit in every game.
• 48:00
  He got the only hit off, Big Jim Lombard.
• 48:04
  Lombard kicked that fourth hitter up in the parking.
• 48:09
  Johnatelli calling time.
• 48:12
  The umpire behind home plate is Javier.
• 48:16
  Take these glasses off.
• 48:19
  Clean them.
• 48:20
  Run away.
• 48:23
  They like to hit and run.
• 48:25
  That's Javier on his first base.
• 48:27
  Jerry Stevenson, left one over to Doris Scott.
• 48:34
  We'll keep it there on Shannon.
• 48:38
  Jerry Stevenson, check the runner at first.
• 48:40
  Here's the pitch.
• 48:41
  That's ball.
• 48:42
  Lower it outside, ball one.
• 48:49
  Javier looking for a time.
• 48:56
  The right fielder, Carter Ball, not too deep.
• 49:00
  But he knows if Javier does get the run, he'll try to put it into right field.
• 49:06
  There's the ball.
• 49:07
  Hit by the fast, the third ball out of the left field.
• 49:09
  You can't see.
• 49:10
  Over to Cutter Ball off.
• 49:11
  I can and well ensured.
• 49:13
  Here it comes in the short.
• 49:15
  It's going to third.
• 49:16
  It's on home and Javier is checking with his standup brother.
• 49:32
  Javier, line one over the bag, pass Dalton Jones out of the left field.
• 49:40
  And Mike Shannon, throwing all the way to first base.
• 49:47
  As you're certainly not trapped at ball rack, left field is good.
• 49:52
  Kind of a funny bounce out there.
• 49:54
  The county got to it.
• 49:55
  Mike Shannon throwing in first.
• 49:57
  So it has Javier down his second.
• 50:00
  Just one away.
• 50:01
  The store, Cardinal Smith, the red track's nothing.
• 50:04
  Now Maxwell the batter.
• 50:08
  And there's the ball right there for Carl Drake Ward.
• 50:11
  Javier now has six for twelve.
• 50:17
  Maxwell better base at his last cover.
• 50:23
  Bottom half of third is Jerry Stevenson, hit to Maxwell.
• 50:26
  Curve ball.
• 50:28
  Moving over the track two.
• 50:30
  And now Pee Wee down in the Boston Boat and Dave Moorehead has started loosening up.
• 50:37
  We've seen three pitchers for the red track.
• 50:42
  And now fourth is warming up.
• 50:45
  Two strikes on Maxwell.
• 50:47
  A little grounder out to start that pepper silly up in the ball over to George Scott to retire Maxwell.
• 50:52
  Moving over to third is Javier.
• 50:56
  And we must say one of the pitchers looks real sharp at a very low.
• 51:15
  Bob Gibson's ahead of a two away.
• 51:18
  Leonard third.
• 51:20
  Javier.
• 51:23
  And now for Jerry Stevenson, now a safe backstack one.
• 51:26
  The Cardinals scored four big runs in the first inning and they have scored two in the bottom half of third inning for their sixth run.
• 51:33
  They have six runs on eight hits.
• 51:36
  That's right, made an error.
• 51:38
  And the red tracks, no runs on one hit.
• 51:41
  They have not made an error.
• 51:43
  Look out, Bob.
• 51:49
  Here's the man that's going to say something about it.
• 51:54
  I don't believe that man anything.
• 51:58
  One ball and one strike on Bob's two away.
• 52:02
  Stevenson shakes his head because he's ready.
• 52:04
  Here's the pitch.
• 52:06
  It pops up out into center field, Reggie Smith underneath him and takes it in as it for the last out.
• 52:14
  So that's all for the Cardinals here in the bottom half of third inning.
• 52:17
  They came up with two runs, but they're still after three full innings, but they're going to have to call strike one.
• 52:25
  Dalton Jones, first time up.
• 52:29
  One back two.
• 52:30
  A big picture Bob Gibson.
• 52:33
  One strike on Dalton Jones.
• 52:35
  A wind up the pitch.
• 52:37
  A foul, safe back on the count of two strikes.
• 52:45
  Last year in the World Series, if you remember correctly, Baltimore Oil and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
• 52:52
  The Orioles won it in fourth place.
• 52:55
  That ball inside, ball one.
• 52:58
  One ball and two strikes.
• 53:03
  The National League trying to win it this year.
• 53:08
  They lead two games to one.
• 53:10
  Turn ball.
• 53:12
  Dalton Jones just got a piece of it, kept him alive.
• 53:15
  One ball and two strikes.
• 53:23
  A real good looking left hander hitter right here at Dalton Jones.
• 53:28
  Hard man to strike out.
• 53:30
  Here's a man that does it quite often, Bob Gibson.
• 53:34
  Right down into his pitch.
• 53:36
  Gibson takes the ball up down until he wants to take a look at it.
• 53:43
  That one has a hurt peewee.
• 53:45
  Usually if it hits the ball his foot in the park it stays there, but the way Gibson pulls with that velocity and the way Jones cuts the ball, that one almost out to the mound.
• 53:57
  I can hear the players on the pitch now, walking like a dog over there.
• 54:04
  One ball, two strikes on Dalton Jones.
• 54:07
  Ball hit hard out in his first baseline.
• 54:10
  The Cavaliers one ball and two strikes.
• 54:14
  Now the CMEU fans tune in a little bit late.
• 54:18
  The Cardinals got off their running start the first inning.
• 54:22
  They came up with four big runs.
• 54:25
  Two more in the third.
• 54:28
  They lead this ball game 6 to nothing.
• 54:30
  We're in the top hat for fourth inning.
• 54:32
  Dalton Jones pops it up out into short left field.
• 54:36
  Luke Rock comes in, calls hard and takes it.
• 54:40
  Out number one.
• 54:47
  It's one of way to bring up Carl D'Espenza.
• 54:50
  He's one for one with it.
• 54:58
  Either they say or just simply go.
• 55:03
  Don't go no that side.
• 55:06
  Gibson, looking down at the carpet.
• 55:09
  Here's the pitch to Carl.
• 55:10
  That's Carl.
• 55:11
  It's outside.
• 55:12
  Ball one.
• 55:17
  Here's the fellow that swings hard on every pitch.
• 55:20
  He really comes through.
• 55:22
  Gibson's got him almost not ready there.
• 55:24
  You have to keep watching this man.
• 55:27
  He gets set to bring this ball in a hurry.
• 55:30
  One ball and one strike on Carl D'Espenza here.
• 55:33
  The top hat to fourth inning, one away.
• 55:38
  He has two whole runs.
• 55:41
  In that second game up the 10-way park, there's a fastball.
• 55:44
  He has a call strike two, one ball and two strikes.
• 55:48
  Trying to keep the ball away from D'Espenza.
• 55:53
  Gibson comes over the rack.
• 55:58
  Here's Trimke, but that's closed fast.
• 56:00
  Here's the pitch.
• 56:01
  Fastball on outside, ball two.
• 56:07
  Here's Trimke in the last two games of the season.
• 56:12
  He has seven hits and eight times his bat against the Minnesota Twins.
• 56:17
  Here's the pitch to Trimke.
• 56:18
  The fastball outside, he fouls it off the left.
• 56:29
  He has 27 home runs at 10-way park this year.
• 56:36
  He has 44 all together, 15 on the road.
• 56:42
  Two ball, two strikes.
• 56:43
  Bob Gibson, here's the pitch.
• 56:45
  Little tap right back to Gibson.
• 56:48
  No trouble with the touch of all of the sabbatas.
• 56:51
  Trimke huckled down that first base line.
• 56:54
  Gibson and a couple of infielders started in right over three outs.
• 56:59
  As they say, we're playing the old rule.
• 57:02
  Three outs, good inning.
• 57:08
  George Scott, let's see what he's done today.
• 57:15
  George Scott, bat it out for the second base.
• 57:18
  He's done the first 15,000 bat strike one.
• 57:26
  George Scott struck out in the first inning.
• 57:31
  Air ball in there by Paul Strike two.
• 57:35
  Here's the thing about Gibson, what's on shot with two strikes, no balls on him right now.
• 57:41
  Here's the windup.
• 57:43
  He's got on curveball way outside.
• 57:46
  That's the first bat on pitch that's been in throw all day.
• 57:51
  Now there's one ball and two strikes.
• 57:58
  George Scott pumping that bat.
• 58:00
  Here's the goal.
• 58:01
  He's got it out.
• 58:06
  John Kelly said the ball hit his ass in the car and starts over with a dugout.
• 58:08
  Johnny Kelly's just come back here.
• 58:10
  He didn't get the ball to fly.
• 58:16
  George Scott just gets the piece of it, keeps him alive.
• 58:20
  One ball and two strikes.
• 58:24
  And the windup, the pick, curveball, ground ball, shot stop, out of the left field.
• 58:31
  Rocked up with the ball.
• 58:32
  He troubles the ball a moment till he's got to make the big turn back in there though.
• 58:38
  So Scott after striking out, 15,000 bat, he's won for two today.
• 58:48
  This round after the second base in his first time up.
• 58:52
  The amazing thing to me about Todd Gibson is his control.
• 58:55
  He went into the ninth inning of the first game before he walked anybody.
• 58:59
  That game was two outs as I recall and today he hasn't come close to walking anybody again.
• 59:06
  Unusual for such a hard thrower.
• 59:09
  That ball inside, ball one.
• 59:12
  That's true, Ken.
• 59:13
  You'd think as much effort as this fellow puts into the ball.
• 59:18
  If he had all these throws it would be a little bit wilder.
• 59:22
  Real good control.
• 59:23
  One ball, low crack.
• 59:24
  It's empty.
• 59:25
  Take the pick, it's two low balls too.
• 59:28
  Once we have a fellow over here on our right.
• 59:31
  That's true, pretty hard.
• 59:32
  Co-facts it.
• 59:33
  I'd say there's better, better control.
• 59:37
  Has any picture ever had?
• 59:40
  Yes, indeed.
• 59:42
  But I saw him when he first started out too.
• 59:44
  He was a little bit wild.
• 59:47
  He was hard.
• 59:51
  He became a control picker.
• 59:54
  One of the best.
• 59:58
  Yatshivsky with two and old counts.
• 1:00:02
  Reggie Smith with the ball to Zapata.
• 1:00:04
  First base, big over steps on the bank and that's all for Reggie Smith.
• 1:00:08
  And that's all for the Red Sox here.
• 1:00:09
  The top half's a fourth inning.
• 1:00:11
  That's a three and a half innings of play until the cargo six and the Red Sox nothing.
• 1:00:16
  Pee-wee race.
• 1:00:19
  Okay, kids.
• 1:00:21
  At the bottom half, the fourth inning, Lou Brock.
• 1:00:26
  That first pitch, Paul Hidhauer on the right side, that's going to be an after-hectic base.
• 1:00:30
  If you'll have to hear to get this one back in.
• 1:00:33
  Reggie Smith, he's holding the ball up in the air and the umpire is saying that the fan cuts the ball.
• 1:00:40
  So it's an automatic down-move double.
• 1:00:43
  It would have been an easy triple, Pee-wee, and maybe even more than that.
• 1:00:47
  He might have even had a shot at an inside-the-park home run.
• 1:00:51
  But a fan out there reached down and touched the ball.
• 1:00:54
  As Ron Ruhl states, if that happens, it's a two-base hit.
• 1:00:58
  So Lou Brock, who is all the way to third base, that might have challenged by trying for an inside-the-park home run, goes back to second.
• 1:01:09
  That ball took a real high hop. That fence is how high it can?
• 1:01:15
  Ten and a half feet high.
• 1:01:18
  Just we don't know how tall the fan was to reach down to touch.
• 1:01:22
  Don't know how long his arms were.
• 1:01:25
  And he touched it, we could see it, and of course the umpire was right out there on top of it.
• 1:01:30
  And he saw it, Reggie Smith, and he kind of told the ball, and he held the ball up in the air.
• 1:01:34
  Jerry Smith, the third plug. Like he wanted to punch that ball, punch the ball out of first base, and he took it outside of the ball wide.
• 1:01:46
  The third plug, he's one for two.
• 1:01:50
  That is bring on that big third inning.
• 1:01:53
  Lou Brock, down at second base.
• 1:01:56
  Let's see if he tries to lift that ball to right field.
• 1:01:59
  After one stop, he's got the goal at facility shortstop.
• 1:02:04
  It's back up in that air.
• 1:02:06
  Jerry Smith gets off the rubber, Elton Howard out to talk to Jerry Smith.
• 1:02:12
  Brock is now eight foot fifteen in this series.
• 1:02:15
  And of course, when he gets on base, he unsettles the pitcher and the catcher.
• 1:02:20
  When he gets on second, he's getting up through the whole infield because the second baseman and the shortstop are constantly on the move,
• 1:02:27
  trying to keep them as close to the bag as possible.
• 1:02:30
  And they there are better selling at both than weaving in behind him.
• 1:02:37
  He just takes a couple of steps away from those infielders.
• 1:02:40
  First body hits the ball to right field on the ground.
• 1:02:42
  During either up or in second base, he puts the ball over to George Schade.
• 1:02:46
  He gets the job done.
• 1:02:48
  He gets Lou Brock over to third.
• 1:02:53
  So it's one away at five balls, what now is four, Brock from third, a little bit more in second.
• 1:03:02
  And it's remarkable, the end of the summer, hitting in that second spot, so it's three-foot in getting the chopper up on a plate just like that.
• 1:03:11
  Yes, certainly is a tribute to the team play at third class.
• 1:03:18
  Roger Maher, line one, well done at first base line.
• 1:03:25
  He's one of the two. He had a couple.
• 1:03:29
  That's first time up driving in three-bounds.
• 1:03:34
  George Schade always says it was a team effort.
• 1:03:39
  I think in the case of the Cardinals here, it's really true.
• 1:03:47
  Boys can really communicate with each other.
• 1:03:50
  What's that second break, second base combination?
• 1:03:53
  Javier and Mackrell.
• 1:03:57
  Here comes Roger Maher.
• 1:04:00
  Take the pick inside.
• 1:04:02
  All one, one ball and one strike.
• 1:04:03
  Jerry Stevenson, serving.
• 1:04:07
  What do you think about that double play combination?
• 1:04:10
  Austin Redstock, never handy.
• 1:04:12
  And Kepa Shelley, in charge, there with the.
• 1:04:15
  A young fellow named Mike Gabb, who's been played a lot of second base for the Reds.
• 1:04:20
  Very good.
• 1:04:21
  Jerry Stevenson, hit to Roger Maher.
• 1:04:23
  One ball, three strikes on Roger Maher.
• 1:04:29
  At the end, three was good.
• 1:04:31
  We're in the bottom half.
• 1:04:35
  Four innings, and the Cardinals lead in this game by a sore, a prick, tenon.
• 1:04:42
  Here's the pick right there, hatball on inside, ball two.
• 1:04:53
  Stevenson is not taking his line up.
• 1:04:57
  He's watching Brock at third.
• 1:04:59
  He comes in, looks forward Brock.
• 1:05:01
  Here's the pick, curveball inside.
• 1:05:04
  Elton Howard makes a nice save.
• 1:05:06
  Makes the job three and two.
• 1:05:07
  The next hitter, Orlando Cepeda.
• 1:05:12
  He got a double his last time up.
• 1:05:17
  Three and two, the count on Roger.
• 1:05:22
  The Cardinals have nine hits.
• 1:05:24
  The Reds are set two.
• 1:05:28
  Jerry Stevenson taking a little time.
• 1:05:29
  He checks Brock over third.
• 1:05:31
  The tapper, George Scott, looks Brock back.
• 1:05:34
  He runs right at Brad De Maher.
• 1:05:37
  De Maher's going right back to home.
• 1:05:39
  But Scott Peggy, with a high hopper, and George Scott at first base, he wanted to make sure to drop him.
• 1:05:47
  He's watching all the way and now he's going right back to home with Scott Peggy.
• 1:05:51
  Scott has great instinct at first base and very often during the year with men at third, he would make that play even from a distance.
• 1:06:00
  That time, of course, Brock was not going and he had a chance to run in and get Roger Maher through a huge set three.
• 1:06:07
  He was retreating toward home plate.
• 1:06:09
  Now Cepeda.
• 1:06:12
  Cepeda.
• 1:06:14
  Had a double to left.
• 1:06:15
  He's lined down up.
• 1:06:16
  Jerry Stevenson takes a little bit too much time for him to step out of there.
• 1:06:19
  He'll move Brock down at third base.
• 1:06:22
  The two away.
• 1:06:26
  Jerry Stevenson watching Brock.
• 1:06:28
  He's in his line at fifth time.
• 1:06:30
  The curveball going outside for one.
• 1:06:34
  Brock had 52 strokes of advantage on the year.
• 1:06:42
  He was the first game of the Corker.
• 1:06:49
  He was the first call hit out to Jocelyn Jones by Cepeda over to George Scott.
• 1:06:54
  And that's all for Cepeda.
• 1:06:55
  That's all for the Corker there.
• 1:06:57
  And a lot of half the fourths.
• 1:06:59
  That's the full inning to play.
• 1:07:01
  It still requires those picks and the left top.
• 1:07:05
  If you've never played in the World Series, you've been up full for a number of years.
• 1:07:09
  And a lot of nows.
• 1:07:10
  He's been a pleasure working with him.
• 1:07:12
  Come on in.
• 1:07:13
  Kenny Coney Coleman.
• 1:07:14
  Thank you very much, Pee-wee.
• 1:07:15
  Jerry A. Deer ready to lead off in the fifth inning.
• 1:07:18
  And the first pitch from Gibson is taking ball for ball one.
• 1:07:22
  Deer in the second inning was called out on strikes.
• 1:07:24
  He'll be followed by Pepper Sully and then Howard is due up third.
• 1:07:28
  The outfield playing is set toward right.
• 1:07:30
  Gibson into the windup then.
• 1:07:32
  The veteran right-hander throws.
• 1:07:33
  The pitch is bowled back.
• 1:07:35
  And the count is one ball and one strike.
• 1:07:38
  Deer hits 292 in his 89 games with Launcourt this year.
• 1:07:46
  The Cardinals jumped out with four runs in the first and got two in the third.
• 1:07:51
  They lead six to nothing.
• 1:07:53
  Two pitches, one on a miss, one ball, two strikes.
• 1:07:58
  Gibson has struck out four and has not walked anybody.
• 1:08:01
  He has given up singles to Yatskensky and Scott.
• 1:08:04
  He has been in charge.
• 1:08:06
  The right-hander fires.
• 1:08:07
  Ground ball, hits down to third.
• 1:08:09
  Near the line, Shannon up with it.
• 1:08:11
  Throws to Cepeda for the out.
• 1:08:13
  A. Deer is out on a ground ball.
• 1:08:15
  Shannon getting him at the first base.
• 1:08:18
  With one down on the fifth, then the Cardinals, they hit six to nothing.
• 1:08:22
  Rico Petricelli is up.
• 1:08:31
  Right-handed batting shortstop.
• 1:08:32
  The pitch to M.I. Pop Powell off the third base side will be out of play.
• 1:08:37
  Amazing thing about Bob Gibson since returning to action on the 7th of September after his July 15th injury.
• 1:08:45
  He pitched six times, including serious games, with a four-and-one record.
• 1:08:50
  And his earned run average has been an incredible 0.97.
• 1:08:54
  Pitch is a curveball inside.
• 1:08:57
  The count on Petricelli goes to one ball, one strike.
• 1:09:03
  Most of the red sox hits by Yatskensky and Scott came after two were out.
• 1:09:08
  The pitch gets away from Gibson, the count is two balls, one strike.
• 1:09:13
  Bob seems to lose his balance coming off the mound.
• 1:09:18
  Two and one on Rico.
• 1:09:24
  Cardinal off field playing straight away for the Boston shortstop.
• 1:09:27
  McCarver hangs out the side.
• 1:09:29
  Gibson throws and the pitch is hit on one off the third.
• 1:09:32
  Shannon with it.
• 1:09:33
  On to Cepeda.
• 1:09:34
  Low throw, two-stop, nice play by the first base.
• 1:09:38
  And there are two men out on the fifth inning.
• 1:09:41
  Cardinals leading six to nothing.
• 1:09:43
  And Elton Howard is at the play.
• 1:09:52
  McCarndom off field for Howard plays a bit to the right.
• 1:09:56
  Bobby Doerr coaching at first and Eddie Paposky over his third base for Boston.
• 1:10:01
  Gibson into the windup and the pitch.
• 1:10:04
  It is low and away, ball one.
• 1:10:06
  Bobby Doerr coaching at first base set a series record in 1946 for second base, 31-6.
• 1:10:16
  Here's the pitch.
• 1:10:17
  High fly ball into right center field, no trouble for Flood.
• 1:10:21
  Waiting for it, he makes the catch and the rest sucks and the fifth inning is down in order.
• 1:10:26
  No runs, no hits and nobody left on.
• 1:10:28
  After four and one half it's St. Louis six and Boston nothing.
• 1:10:33
  And I believe he'll be coming on to catch.
• 1:10:35
  Right now we've got 30 seconds for station identification.
• 1:10:39
  The Red Sox had no runs on fifth.
• 1:10:43
  That made no errors.
• 1:10:45
  And the Cardinals had six runs on ninth hit.
• 1:10:49
  That made no errors.
• 1:10:50
  We have a new catcher.
• 1:10:55
  And a new catcher.
• 1:10:56
  Mike Brown is doing the catcher.
• 1:10:58
  And the catcher, Moorhead.
• 1:11:04
  And Moorhead has a real good overhand curve on him.
• 1:11:08
  Yes he does, see we took last year on the 19th of April when the Patriots played double header in Boston in a dirty car.
• 1:11:15
  And he got out to the Miners.
• 1:11:17
  But Dave in his major league career had a no hit game once.
• 1:11:21
  And had to fight his way back from obscurity this year after starting his season with Toronto.
• 1:11:27
  And has been back with the Boston ball club from about halfway on to this season.
• 1:11:33
  Macarver leads off and the pitch is an overhand fastball at the belt on the inside corner for a strike ball.
• 1:11:40
  When Moorhead is firing he can throw a very, very hard.
• 1:11:46
  Macarver, left-handed batter, backs off for a moment.
• 1:11:50
  Kim has single the right field for the fourth Cardinal run in the first inning.
• 1:11:54
  Had a sacrifice fly in the third to drive in their fifth rock there leading six-nothing.
• 1:11:59
  Pitch is a strike ball, two strikes done, Macarver.
• 1:12:04
  Shannon is on deck and Javier will be batting third.
• 1:12:11
  This is the last half of the fifth inning.
• 1:12:14
  The Cardinals had four on the thirds and two on the thirds.
• 1:12:19
  Moorhead throws, fastball outside, the count is one and two.
• 1:12:23
  In the third, Brock led off with an infield hit.
• 1:12:26
  Rudd single the left, Maris hit a two-run double.
• 1:12:30
  Macarver banged a single to score Maris.
• 1:12:33
  And Maxfield called on Macarver for the fourth run.
• 1:12:37
  There's a ground foul off the first-base side.
• 1:12:40
  Field one and two on Macarver.
• 1:12:44
  Yachtfield plays the tackle with Patrick toward right.
• 1:12:52
  Mike Ryan working back to the plate.
• 1:12:55
  Pitch, big serve outside, two and two.
• 1:12:59
  The plate umpire, Augie Donatelli of the National League at first base,
• 1:13:03
  Ed Lungy of the American League at second, Paul Pyer of the National League,
• 1:13:08
  John Stevens of the American League at third.
• 1:13:12
  Moorhead delivers.
• 1:13:13
  Macarver fouls it back out of play.
• 1:13:16
  Umpiring down the right field line,
• 1:13:19
  Frank Umont of the American League down the left field line, Al Balik of the National League.
• 1:13:26
  The Cardinals were the two game, two game to one edge in the World Series
• 1:13:34
  and leading here six to nothing.
• 1:13:36
  The pitch, one on a miss, strike three as Moorhead came in with high hopes to get Macarver.
• 1:13:42
  And that is the first strikeout by Boston 15 today and Moorhead is the fourth hurler.
• 1:13:49
  Santiago went two-thirds of an inning, allowed six hits and four runs.
• 1:13:54
  Gary Bell went one on a third, allowed no hits, no runs.
• 1:13:57
  Jerry Stevenson went two innings, allowed three hits, two runs.
• 1:14:01
  The batter is Shannon.
• 1:14:03
  The pitch to a miss, one on a miss, strike one.
• 1:14:09
  The team that is hitting third base from his foul to Becquertelli and Watt
• 1:14:14
  hit the curve ball on the ground to second.
• 1:14:16
  Easy hop for Adair, throws it to Scott for the up, two out on the fifth.
• 1:14:21
  Maylou is leading Boston by a score of six to nothing as Julian Javier steps to the plate.
• 1:14:28
  He has now six hits in 12 trips in series competition as he has two for two here today,
• 1:14:36
  an infield base hit in the first inning and a solid single to left field in the third.
• 1:14:43
  Mike Ryan hangs out his nine, Moorhead into action and a pitch, one on a miss, strike one.
• 1:14:52
  Two out and nobody on in the last half of the fifth inning.
• 1:14:56
  On deck is Dale Maxwell.
• 1:15:01
  The copy here calls time and now gets set in the right-hand batter's box.
• 1:15:06
  White blouch, the pitch to him hit on the ground foul, Joe Schultz, the third base coach handling it.
• 1:15:13
  Two tries to count.
• 1:15:25
  Dave Moorhead rubbing up the ball on the mound.
• 1:15:28
  Six runs on nine hits for St. Louis, no runs on two hits for Boston.
• 1:15:37
  Moorhead ready.
• 1:15:40
  Third ball gunning for ball strike three and he sends him down in order in the fifth inning, striking out two.
• 1:15:47
  No runs, no hits and nobody left on so after five St. Louis leads six to nothing.
• 1:15:56
  Ken Dome on an arm, Pee-wee Lee bringing it to the first inning in St. Louis.
• 1:16:01
  Going to the top half of the sixth inning.
• 1:16:04
  Red Sox have no runs on two hits and the Cardinals have six runs on nine hits.
• 1:16:09
  Ken, come on in.
• 1:16:11
  Okay, Pee-wee, Mike Ryan at the plate, batting in the ninth spot in the batting order.
• 1:16:16
  John Foller from Haverhill, Massachusetts.
• 1:16:19
  The pitch to Mike is taking low ball one.
• 1:16:23
  Ryan will be followed by Tarnable and Jones as Moorhead took over Elton Howard's spot.
• 1:16:31
  Rob Gibson into the windup.
• 1:16:33
  The pitch, one on a miss.
• 1:16:36
  One ball and one strike.
• 1:16:43
  Ryan is a very fine defensive catcher for Boston.
• 1:16:47
  The pitch is foul-backed this way, one and two.
• 1:16:55
  Mike is a member of a well-known athletic family in the state of April.
• 1:17:04
  Pitch to him, he swings and the missers strike three.
• 1:17:07
  Looks like he's trying to hold back and couldn't.
• 1:17:10
  There's one out on the Boston six and Bob Gibson has struck out five men today.
• 1:17:25
  One out in the Boston sixth inning.
• 1:17:28
  St. Louis ahead, Sixton up and Tarnable at the plate.
• 1:17:31
  The pitch to Jose, like called, hits the outside corner.
• 1:17:36
  Gibson will be 32 years old on November the 9th.
• 1:17:41
  Struck out 10 red shots last Wednesday, which is a strike called.
• 1:17:48
  He is now allowed only one run in 14th inning.
• 1:17:58
  Gibson delivers inside and low.
• 1:18:00
  One ball, two strikes, it's Tarnable. One out in the Boston sixth.
• 1:18:11
  Pitch is foul-backed, one and two.
• 1:18:14
  In 14 innings against the Red Sox in this World Series,
• 1:18:17
  Gibson has allowed only one batter to get the third.
• 1:18:20
  He didn't even stop there.
• 1:18:21
  That was Santiago who hit a home run against him.
• 1:18:34
  Gibson winds and throws, Tarnable fouls it out of play,
• 1:18:37
  drifting into the lower deep soft third.
• 1:18:40
  One and two.
• 1:18:42
  Tomorrow Jim Longboard will be on the mound for Boston.
• 1:18:47
  Pitch the brilliant one-hit shutout in game two will be opposed by left-hander Steve Calder.
• 1:18:53
  The pitch, Tarnable throws one back up the middle,
• 1:18:56
  grabbed back a second by Javier, throw to first is not in time.
• 1:19:00
  It gets passed, the first-baseman's defeder, but no advance is made by Tarnable.
• 1:19:06
  So, Jose Tarnable is on, bouncing one back up the middle.
• 1:19:11
  Anyway, I'm not sure whether that ball hits the meat hand of Gibson or not,
• 1:19:17
  but in any case, Javier did very well to stop it back a second,
• 1:19:21
  and at least makes a throw on the first.
• 1:19:24
  I would say that Javier is impressed.
• 1:19:26
  We've seen him make two or three real good plays.
• 1:19:28
  Of course, he had no chance of throwing out Tarnable on that one,
• 1:19:30
  but if he can really move, that ball was almost to the left of second base.
• 1:19:35
  He can really move.
• 1:19:36
  One out and one aboard now, Dauvin Jones is the play.
• 1:19:40
  The pitch is a strike called on the outside corner, knee high.
• 1:19:44
  Jones bounceouts the pitcher in the first inning, slides the left field in the fourth.
• 1:19:52
  The hit by Tarnable was the third for Boston, all singles.
• 1:19:56
  Slide ball to left field, right toward Luke Rock.
• 1:19:59
  He can do a few steps and makes the catch.
• 1:20:01
  Tarnable down halfway, retreats to first base.
• 1:20:05
  Two men out in the sixth inning.
• 1:20:07
  In both other situations involving restock hits,
• 1:20:13
  they have done with two men out and nobody on.
• 1:20:16
  This time with one out and Tarnable got the base hit.
• 1:20:21
  Now there are two men out as Jastrowski comes up.
• 1:20:24
  Tau has singled the right field and bounced back to the pitcher.
• 1:20:29
  One for two.
• 1:20:32
  The pitch to him is outside for a ball.
• 1:20:39
  Jastrowski now four foot thirteen in the World Series.
• 1:20:45
  Tarnable with a six to nothing lead, we're in the top of the sixth inning.
• 1:20:49
  Reset by Bob Gibson in the pitch.
• 1:20:52
  Right ball, breaking stuff on the inside corner, one and one.
• 1:21:04
  Gibson gets the time from Tim McCarver.
• 1:21:07
  Right hander goes to develop the pitch.
• 1:21:09
  Yes, doesn't get it, one and two.
• 1:21:13
  The crowd roaring at the rip that Jastrowski takes at that ball.
• 1:21:26
  Up in Boston sometimes they say he changes the wind direction with that cut.
• 1:21:32
  Gibson ready.
• 1:21:34
  One and two pitch, Jastrowski takes it low and inside, two and two.
• 1:21:46
  Two men out, Tarnable on first base in the Boston six.
• 1:21:49
  They glue it for the six to nothing lead.
• 1:21:58
  The pitch to Jastrowski, hit on the ground up the middle.
• 1:22:01
  Back at second, during the short drop, Maxfield throws the bat for the out,
• 1:22:06
  returning the side.
• 1:22:07
  Good play by Del Maxfield, back at the bag at second.
• 1:22:11
  No runs, one hit, one left on.
• 1:22:13
  So after five and one half, St. Louis leads six to nothing to card.
• 1:22:19
  Dave Moorehead throws to him, the pitch is inside, ball one.
• 1:22:23
  Maxfield has singled the left and grounded out the short stop.
• 1:22:28
  Right handed batter, Moorehead throws, ground ball, hits out at Jones,
• 1:22:31
  the third right of the bag, throws the top, flitty out, one away.
• 1:22:36
  Six to nothing, St. Louis, we're in the last half of the sixth inning.
• 1:22:40
  You know, Pee Wee, that overhand curve ball.
• 1:22:46
  Well, first let's say that the hand here is for Bob Gibson who has been brilliant again today.
• 1:22:52
  That overhand curve ball of Moorehead, I think when you and I were kids we used to call that a drop.
• 1:22:57
  And that's a pretty good one too.
• 1:23:00
  Gibson takes the ball outside.
• 1:23:03
  This is the first time I've ever had a chance to see Moorehead pitch.
• 1:23:06
  He comes right over the top.
• 1:23:10
  Pitch to Gibson is a check swing ground ball,
• 1:23:13
  followed by a six-finger in first base coach's box.
• 1:23:18
  One and one to guy.
• 1:23:21
  Here's a curve ball, a little bit like the color that I saw,
• 1:23:25
  but it's not used to pitch to the Dodgers.
• 1:23:28
  I mean, but Carl Irka, he came in over the top and it really rolls off.
• 1:23:32
  That ball is high and the count goes to two and one on Bob Gibson.
• 1:23:36
  Bob has flied to Yosvanski and left and to Smith in center field.
• 1:23:40
  Two and one.
• 1:23:45
  Moorehead kicks and throws, the pitch is low and away, three balls, one strike.
• 1:23:50
  One man out, nobody on, last of the sixth.
• 1:23:53
  The Dodgers get four in the first inning and two in the third.
• 1:23:57
  They beat six to nothing.
• 1:23:58
  Gibson fouls it back, three and two.
• 1:24:01
  Bob is a great natural athlete, once played with the Harlem Globetrotters
• 1:24:06
  and went to Creighton University in Omaha on a basketball scholarship.
• 1:24:11
  No wonder he can feel that position out there on the mound.
• 1:24:16
  Moorehead, three-two pitch to Gibson.
• 1:24:19
  He's outside and all he lost is.
• 1:24:22
  He's out because the card don't have a baselunner.
• 1:24:26
  That's the second walk allowed by Boston Fitches, the first by Moorehead.
• 1:24:31
  One out and one on and the batter is Drew Brogner.
• 1:24:34
  Today is two for three.
• 1:24:37
  He now has eight hits in the series more than any other player.
• 1:24:41
  Had an infield hit in the first inning and scored the first save that was run,
• 1:24:45
  flied to Yosvanski and left in the second, and doubled in the fourth,
• 1:24:50
  and on the non-rule double he might have had, would have had certainly three,
• 1:24:54
  but the ball was touched by a fan out there in the bleachers and right centers.
• 1:24:58
  Pitch hit on the ground to Petracelli.
• 1:25:00
  Flips over to Adair for one, back to first, face at first face.
• 1:25:05
  Brock is, you can well imagine, a very difficult man to double up,
• 1:25:11
  and they couldn't pull it off that time.
• 1:25:14
  As Gibson is four six to four, Petracelli to Adair and Brock reaches on the field of his choice.
• 1:25:22
  So there are two men out and a runner at first.
• 1:25:28
  Lew Brock has grounded into only 21 double plays in five years in the majors.
• 1:25:36
  Here is Fletcher.
• 1:25:39
  The fans want Brock to go.
• 1:25:41
  Moorehead's set.
• 1:25:42
  He's going to pitch, throw it out of second base, and he is safe.
• 1:25:48
  A close play, but safe for second base.
• 1:25:51
  Brock is stolen for the third time in the 1947 World Series.
• 1:25:56
  The pitch was a ball to Kurt Fluck.
• 1:26:03
  Yeah, he picked a real good pitch to Seelow.
• 1:26:05
  You and I have been talking about that overhand furball of Moorehead,
• 1:26:08
  and that's what the pitch he took off on.
• 1:26:10
  And of course that's a much better pitch to Seelow on that good pass ball.
• 1:26:14
  It takes a little bit longer for him to get up there.
• 1:26:16
  It didn't take long for Brock to get out of second.
• 1:26:20
  Well, he certainly gets off to a tremendous start.
• 1:26:23
  Mike Lyon has a good throwing time and has thrown out such men as Bert Campanaro
• 1:26:28
  over the American League.
• 1:26:30
  Among the greats, he's used the American League features.
• 1:26:34
  Here's the seven pitch.
• 1:26:36
  Mike crawled on the outside corner of the knees, the count is one-on-one.
• 1:26:41
  Flood, after getting a solid single to left in the first inning,
• 1:26:44
  pops up to stride at first base in the second rather than second base in the fourth.
• 1:26:52
  The pitch. Flood hits the ground ball to short.
• 1:26:55
  Petracelli in and up of it, throws the first base in time, and I get him.
• 1:26:59
  Flood is out, short to first, and in the sixth inning,
• 1:27:02
  there were no unnoticed and one man is left on.
• 1:27:06
  At the end of sixth, the Cardinals sixth and the Red Sox nothing.
• 1:27:10
  Boston in the seventh, the Red Sox fail the Cardinals by a score of six to nothing.
• 1:27:16
  Scott, buck out in the first inning and single to left field in the fourth.
• 1:27:20
  Hits the ground ball on one option, actually, to short.
• 1:27:23
  Close is the Pater for the out. One down on the Boston seventh inning.
• 1:27:29
  Scott had more luck than anybody with Gibson and Boston.
• 1:27:33
  He had a pair of hits dropped off.
• 1:27:36
  And now Reggie Smith is coming up.
• 1:27:39
  Smith has rounded out to second and bounced out to the first base from Cepeda on a fifth.
• 1:27:52
  Jim McCobber catching.
• 1:27:54
  Cepeda at first, Javier at second, Maxville at shortstop, and Shannon at third.
• 1:27:58
  Rockets in left, flood in center, and Maritz in right.
• 1:28:03
  Smith getting set, foot hitting center fielder of the Red Sox up there left handed.
• 1:28:08
  Gibson, six and throws, low for a ball.
• 1:28:18
  Gibson allowed six hits in the opener in Boston.
• 1:28:22
  Pitch is low and inside, ball two.
• 1:28:31
  Two balls and no strikes to count.
• 1:28:38
  Smith gets it low, ball three.
• 1:28:41
  Gibson has a World Series record for a pitcher, most strikeouts in one series.
• 1:28:46
  He fanned 31 Yankees in 1964.
• 1:28:50
  The 3-0 pitch, Smith gets a walk.
• 1:28:54
  And that is the first walk that Gibson has given up today.
• 1:28:58
  Only the second he has given up in this World Series.
• 1:29:02
  In the first game he went to the ninth inning with two outs before he walked any further.
• 1:29:07
  One out and one on.
• 1:29:08
  The batter is Jerry Adair, the second baseman.
• 1:29:10
  And now down Maxville, the Cardinals shortstop,
• 1:29:13
  and Hopkins End wants to talk things over for a moment with Rock Gibson.
• 1:29:20
  We have some scores for you.
• 1:29:22
  Green Bay and Detroit are tied 10-10 at the end of the third quarter.
• 1:29:28
  Dallas and Washington 7-7 in the third period.
• 1:29:33
  DeWalland to New York 14 apiece at halftime.
• 1:29:37
  The pitch is ball one to Jerry Adair.
• 1:29:41
  Minnesota 14 St. Louis 3 in the second quarter.
• 1:29:51
  Adair hits a high pop foul off the first base side.
• 1:29:55
  Maccaba rovers, he's got it.
• 1:29:57
  The fader was close to him, but Kim made the grab.
• 1:30:01
  Adair bowels out to the catcher.
• 1:30:03
  Two men out, a runner at first base and a Boston 7.
• 1:30:06
  St. Louis with a 6-0 lead.
• 1:30:10
  Rico Petrucelli at the plate has been called out on strikes and grounded out the short.
• 1:30:18
  Tomorrow Jim Launborg goes against Steve Carlton.
• 1:30:26
  On deck for Boston, Steve Burns hits his foul back out of play.
• 1:30:32
  Strike one.
• 1:30:44
  One strike on Petrucelli, Reggie Smith on first base to pitch.
• 1:30:49
  One on and missed.
• 1:30:51
  Strike two.
• 1:30:55
  Moorehead was in the eighth spot in the batting order when he went into pitch, so he would be due next and Steve Burns is on deck.
• 1:31:05
  The set by Gibson and the pitch.
• 1:31:07
  Check swing foul ball off the first base side into the lower stand.
• 1:31:12
  Two strikes.
• 1:31:17
  Still cloudy, still cool here at Bush Memorial Stadium with a temperature in the mid-50s.
• 1:31:23
  It's supposed to be cloudy but maybe a little bit warmer tomorrow.
• 1:31:33
  Gibson ready to pitch.
• 1:31:36
  Check swing pop-up. Gibson makes the catch near the foul line off first.
• 1:31:41
  Halfway between first and home he went over like a cat to grab the ball.
• 1:31:46
  A nice play by the cardinal pitcher and that's all in the seven for Boston.
• 1:31:51
  No hits and one man left on.
• 1:31:54
  So after six and one half, St. Louis leads six to nothing involving Atlanta and Houston.
• 1:32:02
  One-two pitch, curve away, two and two.
• 1:32:06
  Catch and the brave credit, Denny LaMatcha left in his pitcher and a shortstop in his nakey to Houston for Sonny Jackson.
• 1:32:13
  A shortstop in the first base and they make Chuck Saxton.
• 1:32:16
  That's probably the first straight of the year.
• 1:32:18
  Yes, I would say. Two balls, two strikes to count.
• 1:32:26
  Morehead getting the mound for the front arm. It sticks to his likeness.
• 1:32:32
  One man out in the last of the seven.
• 1:32:34
  Cepeda hits a five-all into left-center field.
• 1:32:36
  Reggie Smith drifting to his right makes the catch for the outs.
• 1:32:40
  Two men out in the seven for St. Louis.
• 1:32:45
  The Cardinals are ahead by a score of six to nothing in a game that's been dominated by Cardinal right-hander Bob Gibson
• 1:32:54
  and early foot by the Cardinals at the plate.
• 1:32:57
  The batter is the catcher, Jim McArber.
• 1:33:00
  Left-handed hitter has singled a right and scored a run.
• 1:33:05
  It is sacrificed by and struck out.
• 1:33:07
  Takes a breaking ball over for a strike for all.
• 1:33:11
  McArber has driven in a pair of runs also, one on the first and one on the third.
• 1:33:23
  Dave Morehead throws outside for a ball one-on-one.
• 1:33:27
  Morehead is from San Diego, California.
• 1:33:35
  A right-hander who had quite a story in coming back to the Red Rocks this year after having a lame arm most of the past season and early this year.
• 1:33:44
  Pitch is inside, two balls, one strike.
• 1:33:55
  Pitch is inside for a ball three-and-one.
• 1:33:58
  In 1965, Morehead pitched a no-hit game against Cleveland on the 16th of September.
• 1:34:08
  The three-one delivery.
• 1:34:10
  High pop-up going into shallow up center field.
• 1:34:13
  Pepper Telle back, back, and he's got it to retire the side.
• 1:34:17
  In the seventh, no runs, no hits, and nobody left on.
• 1:34:20
  Seven innings to play, his table is six and Boston nothing. Job of pitching for Boston.
• 1:34:28
  Seaborn up there at the plate.
• 1:34:31
  Ryan is on deck and Chodable is due third.
• 1:34:37
  The Red Rocks have three singles in this ball game by Chodable, Yosemte, and Scott.
• 1:34:44
  Boston has struck out five and walked only one.
• 1:34:51
  Seaborn is a native of St. Louis as is Elton Howard of the Red Rocks and Dick Williams who lived here the first 13 years of his life.
• 1:35:04
  And of course, Norm White Howard is a veteran of World Series competition.
• 1:35:09
  In the third period, New Orleans 21, the New York Giants 20 in pro football, and Green Bay is leading Detroit 20-10 in the fourth period.
• 1:35:20
  Seaborn left-handed batter, Apeen Gibson.
• 1:35:23
  Pitch two in his lower ball one.
• 1:35:28
  Young 19-year-old Ken Brett is warming up on the Boston bullpen.
• 1:35:36
  He is outside ball two.
• 1:35:48
  Bob Gibson takes a deep breath on the mound, right-hander into action and the pitch.
• 1:35:52
  Seaborn gets a fastball in, first strike call, two and one.
• 1:36:05
  There's a high five all into center field and Kirk Flood is under it.
• 1:36:10
  He's got it for our number one.
• 1:36:12
  Seaborn flies to center.
• 1:36:14
  There's one out in the box tonight.
• 1:36:17
  And the batter is Mike Lyon who came up in the sixth inning after going into the game with Moorhead as a new batter and Mike struck out in the sixth.
• 1:36:28
  Pitch is foul back strike one.
• 1:36:42
  The outfield plays this right-handed batter a bit toward right field.
• 1:36:54
  Gibson throws a curve in, first strike call, two strikes on of Mike Lyon.
• 1:36:59
  Dave Moorhead went three innings and allowed no runs, no hits.
• 1:37:03
  Walk one and struck out two.
• 1:37:07
  There's a fly ball into short center field.
• 1:37:09
  Flood jumps in and makes the catch.
• 1:37:13
  He did that twice yesterday and has done it again today.
• 1:37:17
  He has a great knack of getting a jump on the ball.
• 1:37:20
  Looks for a moment like it might drop in but Flood with an extra burst of speed comes in and makes the catch for Tyre Lyon.
• 1:37:28
  And there are two men out in the Red Sox eighth inning.
• 1:37:32
  And the batter is the leadoff man, Jose Tardibol.
• 1:37:39
  Bob Gibson throws a fastball high and away, ball one.
• 1:37:44
  Tardibol has rounded out the burst twice and had an infield hit.
• 1:37:52
  The pitch, Bob takes a little off its ball too.
• 1:38:06
  The pitch is low, oh it's a strike right at the knees, two and one, two balls in, one strike to count.
• 1:38:12
  Augie Donatelli of the National League calling the balls and strikes.
• 1:38:18
  The pitch is foul back, two and two.
• 1:38:22
  Gibson who a couple of times in the game slowed his pace just a little, now working very fast again and looking just as strong as he did in the early innings.
• 1:38:33
  The two-two pitch, inside three and two on Tardibol.
• 1:38:39
  Ed Rungy, the umpire at first, Paul Fier at second, John Stevens at third, Frank Umont and Wright, Al Bonik in left field.
• 1:38:48
  Three and two on Tardibol.
• 1:38:51
  Gibson throws as a wide shot through the middle into center field for a base hit.
• 1:38:57
  Right pass, Gibson's head, Bob got his glove up and tried to make a play on it but could not.
• 1:39:03
  Tardibol has his second hit in the ball game and the fourth for the Red Sox with two men out in the eighth.
• 1:39:11
  The Cardinals have a six to nothing lead as Dalton Jones moves in.
• 1:39:16
  Left handed batting third baseman has grounded to the pitcher and twice by the left field.
• 1:39:23
  Gibson throws high for a ball.
• 1:39:31
  Three times now the Red Sox have had singles after two were out in this ball game once they had a hit after only one out.
• 1:39:39
  So Gibson has really not been in any kind of trouble.
• 1:39:43
  Pitch is low for a ball.
• 1:39:50
  Nobody has reached second against Gibson.
• 1:39:57
  Two balls, no strikes. Pitch is a strike call two and one.
• 1:40:06
  Bob has struck out five. He has watched one.
• 1:40:11
  There is all three. Three balls, one strike.
• 1:40:15
  Cardinals sixth and the Red Sox nothing. This is the eighth inning.
• 1:40:20
  Cardinals lead in the World Series two games to one.
• 1:40:26
  Line drive to right field. Maris flips but misses the catch.
• 1:40:31
  Fine play by the Cardinals right fielder on a hard line drive that appeared to hand top him.
• 1:40:37
  He flips just a bit but kept his footing enough to make the play and the Red Sox are down on the eighth.
• 1:40:44
  Now on one hit one man is left on. After seven and one half St. Louis sixth and Haunton nothing.
• 1:40:53
  They are going to the bottom half of the eighth inning.
• 1:40:58
  We have a new pitcher for the Boston Red Sox and I can imagine I am sure the kid will agree with me.
• 1:41:04
  We have a boy out there now by the name of Ken Brett. He is 18 years old.
• 1:41:10
  I would believe that he could be just a little bit nervous.
• 1:41:14
  He is quite a boy. Just as a matter of fact, he turned 19 a couple of weeks ago. He is a hard-crawling left-hander.
• 1:41:23
  He is out of California and the Red Sox find him again ahead of the great pitcher of the Cincinnati Reds, Gary Nola.
• 1:41:32
  He has two innings of Major League experience.
• 1:41:35
  Here is the first pitch from him to Shannon and Southside ball one.
• 1:41:40
  It looks like his fastball kind of tails away from a right-handed hitter.
• 1:41:45
  That is the way they say it works most of the time.
• 1:41:49
  Ken froze and this one is low ball two.
• 1:41:55
  Quite an experience for this young fellow to be pitching at the age of 19 in a World Series.
• 1:42:03
  Just a year away from high school.
• 1:42:07
  Here is the two-nothing pitch. Shannon fouls it back out of play.
• 1:42:11
  Mike today is 0-2. He fouled a pepper celly, walked and grounded out the third.
• 1:42:17
  I tell you what, though, Pee-wee, I did a dugout interview show with Ken Brett the first day he came up to the majors.
• 1:42:23
  It was the first time he had ever been on a radio program and he ate a candy bar all through the show.
• 1:42:29
  He doesn't say, well, he has got the pool as people his age say.
• 1:42:34
  Pitch is outside ball three. He looks to me like he is throwing pretty free and easy out there.
• 1:42:40
  Maybe I'll have to retract that thing. Maybe he isn't nervous.
• 1:42:43
  He said his knee shook a little that first time.
• 1:42:46
  Three balls and one strike to count on Shannon on the air on deck.
• 1:42:50
  Last of the eight. Brett delivers foul ball out of play to right field going into the upper demand.
• 1:42:57
  And now it is raining.
• 1:43:00
  It has started to rain fairly hard and down below fans are tampering to do it's cover.
• 1:43:10
  Three balls, two strikes. The pitch.
• 1:43:13
  Shannon pops it up in foul territory off third. Ryan and Joan Dover.
• 1:43:18
  Mike Ryan makes the catch.
• 1:43:20
  Shannon fouls to the catcher Mike Ryan, one out of the eight today.
• 1:43:26
  So it has been cloudy and cool all day. We have had a threat of rain here for a couple of days and now we are getting it.
• 1:43:33
  The Cardinals lead by a score of six to nothing.
• 1:43:37
  Incidentally, Alan Ross, our statistician, tells us there has never been a World Series game that has done less than nine innings.
• 1:43:45
  They have always gotten through all of them.
• 1:43:51
  Bobby here at the plate. Pitch two and it is swung on a miss, strike one.
• 1:43:56
  Bullion has a single and a double and has been called out on strikes. One away in the eight.
• 1:44:04
  The pitch. Fastball swung on a miss, strike two.
• 1:44:08
  Dave Moore hits. Pitch brilliantly for Boston today.
• 1:44:11
  And Gary Bell in relief, the man who started yesterday, also pitched very well.
• 1:44:19
  The catch throws and he gets him with a breaking pitch around the knees.
• 1:44:23
  So he has gotten the first two men here in the eight.
• 1:44:26
  Striking out Bullion and Harvier.
• 1:44:29
  And with two out and nobody aboard, the batter is Dow Maxfield.
• 1:44:34
  St. Louis six and Boston nothing.
• 1:44:36
  Pitch nine and all for the Cardinals.
• 1:44:38
  Zero four and all for Boston.
• 1:44:41
  The pitch to Maxfield is the ball ball one.
• 1:44:45
  And now has single the last round of the short, drops out the third.
• 1:44:53
  Ken Brett gets the sign from Ryan.
• 1:44:56
  Useful left hander throws and it's served foul off the first face side out of play.
• 1:45:01
  One and one.
• 1:45:13
  Pitch is a four and one.
• 1:45:16
  And this one gets by, ball two and strike one.
• 1:45:20
  Cardinals leading six to nothing.
• 1:45:25
  Only three times in the history of the World Series has a team been down three games to one and come on to win it all.
• 1:45:36
  Pitch is a ball three and one.
• 1:45:42
  Three Boston over Pittsburgh in 1925, Pittsburgh over Washington and in 1958 New York over Milwaukee.
• 1:45:50
  Three one pitch.
• 1:45:52
  Going outside, Maxfield gets a walk.
• 1:45:57
  With two out of the eighth inning, Brett walks Maxfield.
• 1:46:03
  And the batter will be Bob Gibson.
• 1:46:11
  The Cardinals pitcher getting a very fine hand which is well earned as he pitched another straight ball game in the World Series today.
• 1:46:21
  He slide to left, slide to center and walks.
• 1:46:26
  Brett slows to him, he swings and then he strikes one.
• 1:46:37
  The young left hander of the Red Sox gets the sign from Maya.
• 1:46:42
  Looks toward first, throws, Gibson takes it high, one ball one strike.
• 1:46:54
  Brett is a fine all around athlete and is also a very good hitter and could play several positions.
• 1:47:03
  One pitch, grounded toward Petrofeli, off to his right and with it over to second for the fourth play, retiring the side.
• 1:47:10
  The Cardinals are out of the eighth inning.
• 1:47:12
  No runs, no hits, one man is left on at the end of eighth, St. Louis, sixth and Boston nothing.
• 1:47:19
  It's a line wide into right center field, Maris going hard, can't get it.
• 1:47:24
  It's through the wall, Yosemke going into second base, standing with a double.
• 1:47:30
  Yosemke doubles to right field to open the box in ninth inning.
• 1:47:35
  Red Sox failing six to nothing and the batter is going to be George Scott.
• 1:47:47
  George Scott has struck out, singles to left and grounded out to shortstop.
• 1:47:52
  The rain is coming down harder now.
• 1:47:56
  Yosemke gets them ready, the pitch, high fly ball to right field, Maris ready, makes the catch,
• 1:48:04
  Yers tagged up, is heading for third base, the long throw is not in time, safe at third.
• 1:48:12
  George Scott flies to right field and after the catch, Yosemke moves to third.
• 1:48:18
  A man at third base and one out here in the ninth inning, the Cardinals with a six to nothing lead.
• 1:48:29
  The Cardinals got four in the first and two in the third and that's been the story on the scoreboard today.
• 1:48:37
  Reggie Smith is all for two, he's grounded to second, bounced to first and walks.
• 1:48:47
  The crowd went bang and he's free.
• 1:49:02
  Gibson into the windup and the pitch, Smith takes it up high.
• 1:49:10
  One ball and one strike, one away.
• 1:49:13
  Bob Gibson has one out in the ninth with Yersemke at third for Boston.
• 1:49:19
  Cardinal right hander winds and throws, the pitch is fouled back to the screen one and two.
• 1:49:35
  Jim McCarver hangs out his side.
• 1:49:38
  The Cardinal right hander shakes it off.
• 1:49:41
  Now he's ready to wind up and pitch.
• 1:49:44
  Breaking ball over air court, Mike Call and Reggie Smith protests to the plate umpire,
• 1:49:49
  Augie Donatelli, before going back to the bench.
• 1:49:53
  So that is strikeout number six for Gibson.
• 1:49:56
  Now there are two men out in the Boston ninth inning, the Cardinals have a six to nothing lead.
• 1:50:07
  There's the windup and the pitch to Adair, ground ball off Gibson out to Javier,
• 1:50:12
  throw to first page and Coleman as Bob Gibson steps out to Boston with another brilliant performance here this afternoon.
• 1:50:21
  In the ninth, no runs, one hit and one man left on and the final score was St. Louis fifth and the Red Sox nothing.
• 1:50:31
  We'll be back in just a moment with a resume of today's game.
• 1:50:34
  Gibson and the Red Sox six to nothing.
• 1:50:37
  Momentarily we'll be going down to Tony Kuback on the field and he'll be talking with Lou Brock who has played brilliantly for St. Louis in this series.
• 1:50:49
  And now let's go down to Tony Kuback, he is down there, let's go down right now.
• 1:50:57
  Thank you, Kirk, hallelujah, having a very fine series and of course you came in it off a very fine year. How do you feel about going in the World Series?
• 1:51:04
  Performance go well.
• 1:51:06
  Well actually Tony, going into the World Series, I guess this is what you play for a year long and of course you get into the World Series, the thrill is there.
• 1:51:13
  And I've gotten out there a good start and Tony, I feel very delighted about it.
• 1:51:18
  Actually if there's something like a game plan going into a ball game, they would have to play the Red Sox.
• 1:51:23
  And keeping you off base with their game plan and of course I think yours has been to keep your trims and it's worked just that way.
• 1:51:29
  You have had the big day up in Boston, they beat you, but you've had a couple of good days and you've beaten them.
• 1:51:34
  So how has your trims impressed you as a ball player?
• 1:51:37
  Well Tony, I've seen your trims game with Syod in Arizona when he trained out west and he's a complete ball player and he's a tremendous hitter.
• 1:51:46
  I have a really tremendous hitter in Iowa Lake too and of course anybody can be pitched to and our game plan has been going pretty good against Carl.
• 1:51:54
  And of course this is all I can say that we have a lot of luck with him so far.
• 1:51:59
  Well what about your own game plan now? To get on base, to try and steal a base and this you've done so well.
• 1:52:05
  And what about the ball you hit back in the first inning? If there was a turning point it was the very first ball.
• 1:52:10
  Hit down the third base to Jones, a little bit of a bad hopper, I don't know if he could have gotten you anyway.
• 1:52:16
  Well Tony, he was playing rather deep, unusually for third baseman and of course I picked a bunt down the third base line and he didn't move in.
• 1:52:23
  And of course I was trying to get him in because the guy San Diego had a good sinker ball and of course the next hit was a good sinker ball.
• 1:52:31
  They hit off the end of our bat and I was glad he didn't come in.
• 1:52:34
  What about the World Trees going back to Boston? Do you think they'll end right here tomorrow with Calvin or do you think they'll go back to Boston?
• 1:52:40
  Well I don't know Tony, we're going to give it all we've got. I think there's quite a few guys on the ball club who feel like they want to end it here.
• 1:52:48
  So there's going to be a little extra tomorrow and I hope that we can end it here.
• 1:52:52
  Well you've had yourself a fine series and of course your speed has told a big story for the Cardinal ball club.
• 1:52:58
  What about Bob Gips? He's been just sensational for you, hasn't he, in the football game?
• 1:53:01
  This is it. Bob is practically unbeatable. Anytime Bob says three games we can count on him winning two.
• 1:53:08
  And so far he's won two. If there's a third game to be pitched I think Bob's going to do a good job in that one Tony.
• 1:53:15
  You've got Jim Lomborg coming up tomorrow in the ball game versus Steve Towner, a fine left hander.
• 1:53:20
  What are you personally going to try and do differently against Jim Lomborg in tomorrow's ball game?
• 1:53:25
  Well I was trying to get on base Tony. As you know the first game Jim Pitch I wasn't able to get on base.
• 1:53:31
  I hit the ball shop a few times. But I won't change any game plan. Matter of fact I don't have any game plan.
• 1:53:36
  I just go up there and play now.
• 1:53:38
  Lou Brock thank you so much. Congratulations. Best of luck to you tomorrow and the rest of the series for their B of 6 and 7 games.
• 1:53:43
  Now back to Kirk County.
• 1:53:45
  Bob Gibson. Sandy Colfax County is up in the back Bob Gibson and Ken Coleman.
• 1:53:51
  I don't think I can say anything about him. You watch him pitch, you look at the scoreboard and you know all about him.
• 1:53:57
  He doesn't beat himself. I think that's the biggest thing about Bob. He's a great pitcher, he's got great stuff.
• 1:54:02
  But you're going to have to beat him. He's not going to help you. He's not going to walk many hitters.
• 1:54:06
  He's not going to give in to the hitters. He's not going to make too many bad pitches.
• 1:54:10
  He's a great fielding pitcher. He does everything that you have to do out there.
• 1:54:14
  Plus the fact that he's one of the great competitors at Naked Baseball.
• 1:54:18
  I'd say no ball game is fun, but a ball game is a pitch against a guy like that.
• 1:54:23
  You happen to beat him. You take special pride in a ball game like that.
• 1:54:27
  If he beats you, you can't feel too bad about it. You just hope you're a little above 500 against a guy like that.
• 1:54:33
  Well I would say that's a pretty good description of Bob Gibson. I know Sandy has seen him quite a few times.
• 1:54:40
  And the one thing that Sandy said, Ken, that really impressed me, this fella really challenges you.
• 1:54:45
  He does not walk you. He makes you hit the ball.
• 1:54:49
  And I don't think it makes any difference to him, but it'd be very brute. Call your trip. See who's up there.
• 1:54:55
  He's going to bring that ball in that strike zone.
• 1:54:57
  That's for sure. Now to review the scoring for anyone who tuned in late.
• 1:55:01
  In the first inning of the ball game, Lou Brock led off with an infield single.
• 1:55:06
  Kurt Slug followed with a single to left field.
• 1:55:09
  And with runners at first and second, Roger Maris doubled to left to drive in the first two runs.
• 1:55:14
  Cepeda flied to right and Maris went to third after the catch.
• 1:55:18
  McCarver singled to right to score Roger Maris.
• 1:55:22
  Then McCarver went to second base on a single by Julian Javier and scored on a single by Dall Maxfield.
• 1:55:30
  And they wound up with four runs on six base hits in the first inning.
• 1:55:35
  They added two more in the third when Cepeda led off with a double.
• 1:55:38
  He went to third on a wild pitch and scored on McCarver's sacrifice fly.
• 1:55:42
  Shannon walked and then Javier banged out a double to send Micolm with a six run.
• 1:55:52
  And that was it as far as the scoring was concerned as the Carcass wanted six to nothing.
• 1:55:57
  Now from the Boston point of view, their situation is this.
• 1:56:02
  They are down three games to one in this World Series.
• 1:56:06
  And only three times in the history of the classics has a team been able to come back and overcome that kind of a deficit.
• 1:56:15
  It happened in 1903 when Boston defeated Pittsburgh.
• 1:56:19
  And that was an eight game series by the way.
• 1:56:22
  Boston won five games over to three.
• 1:56:25
  In 1925, Pittsburgh did it over Washington.
• 1:56:28
  In 1958, the New York Yankees did it over Milwaukee.
• 1:56:34
  So that is the story on what faces the Red Sox as a tomorrow will send Jim Lomborgue against Steve Calvin.
• 1:56:44
  We'll give you the complete rundown right after this message.
